Buffalo Creek flood
This article includes a list of references, but its sources remain unclear because it has insufficient inline citations. (February 2011) |
The Buffalo Creek flood was a disaster that occurred on February 26, 1972, when the Pittston Coal Company's coal slurry impoundment dam #3, located on a hillside in Logan County, West Virginia, USA, burst, four days after having been declared 'satisfactory' by a federal mine inspector.[1]
The resulting flood unleashed approximately 132,000,000 US gallons (500,000 m3) of black waste water, cresting over 30 ft high, upon the residents of 16 coal mining hamlets in Buffalo Creek Hollow. Out of a population of 5,000 people, 125 were killed, 1,121 were injured, and over 4,000 were left homeless. 507 houses were destroyed, in addition to forty-four mobile homes and 30 businesses.[1] The disaster also destroyed or damaged homes in Lundale, Saunders, Amherstdale, Crites, Latrobe and Larado. In its legal filings, Pittston Coal referred to the accident as "an Act of God."
Dam #3, constructed of coarse mining refuse dumped into the Middle Fork of Buffalo Creek starting in 1968, failed first, following heavy rains. The water from Dam #3 then overwhelmed Dams #2 and #1. Dam #3 had been built on top of coal slurry sediment that had collected behind dams # 1 and #2, instead of on solid bedrock. Dam #3 was approximately 260 feet above the town of Saunders when it failed.
Two commissions investigated the disaster. One, the Governor's Ad Hoc Commission of Inquiry, appointed by Governor Arch A. Moore, Jr., was made up entirely of members sympathetic to the coal industry or government officials whose departments might be complicit in the genesis of the flood. After Arnold Miller, then president of the United Mine Workers, and others were rebuffed by Gov. Moore regarding their request that a coal miner be added to the commission, a citizen's commission assembled to provide an independent review of the disaster. The Governor's Commission of Inquiry report [1] called for legislation and further inquiry by the local prosecutor. The report [2] by the Citizen's Commission concluded the Buffalo Creek-Pittston Coal Company was guilty of murdering at least 124 men, women and children. Additionally, the chair of the Citizen's Commission, Norman Williams, the Deputy Director of the West Virginia Department of Natural Resources, called publicly and in testimony before the legislature for the outlawing of coal strip mining throughout the state. He testified that strip mining could not exist as a profit making industry unless it is allowed by the state to pass on the costs of environmental damage to the private landowner or the public.[citation needed]
The state of West Virginia also sued the company for $100 million for disaster and relief damages, but Governor Arch A. Moore, Jr. settled for just $1 million, three days before leaving office in 1977. The lawyers for the plaintiffs, Arnold & Porter of Washington, D.C., donated a portion of their legal fees for the construction of a new community center. West Virginia has yet to build the center, though it was promised by Governor Moore in May 1972.[citation needed]
Gerald M. Stern, an attorney with Arnold & Porter, wrote a book entitled The Buffalo Creek Disaster about representing the victims of the flood. It includes descriptions of his experiences dealing with the political and legal environment of West Virginia, where the influence of large coal mining corporations is intensely significant to the local culture and communities. Sociologist Kai T. Erikson, son of distinguished psychologist and sociologist Erik Erikson, was called as an expert witness and published a study on the effects of the disaster entitled Everything In Its Path: Destruction of Community in the Buffalo Creek Flood (1978). Erikson's book later won the Sorokin Award, granted by the American Sociological Association for an "outstanding contribution to the progress of sociology."[citation needed]
Simpson-Housley and De Man (1989) found that, 17 years later, the residents of Buffalo Creek scored higher on a measure of trait anxiety in comparison to the residents of Kopperston, a nearby mining town that did not experience the flood.[citation needed]
Dennis Prince and some 625 survivors of the flood sued the Pittston Coal Company, seeking $64 million in damages ($292 million in 2011 dollars). They settled in June 1974 for $13.5 million, or approximately $13,000 for each individual after legal costs ($62.2 thousand each in 2014 dollars). A second suit was filed by 348 child survivors, who sought $225 million; they settled for $4.8 million in June 1974.[citation needed]
Kerry Albright became known as the "miracle baby" of the disaster. Running from the leading edge of the water, his mother threw him just above the flood level moments before she drowned. He survived with few ill effects, and was raised by his father. His survival gave hope and inspiration to other survivors.[2]
On their 2001 release White Blood Cells, The White Stripes song "This Protector" alludes to the Buffalo Creek Disaster from the federal mine inspector point of view, through lyrics such as "300 people living out in West Virginia/have no idea of all these thoughts that lie within ya".
In the NCIS episode "Corporal Punishment", Dr. Mallard references the Buffalo Creek Disaster when discussing PTSD in a soldier returning from the Iraq War.
On their 2004 release, the band American Minor includes a song titled "Buffalo Creek" that was written about the Buffalo Creek disaster.

Just a few more stops on this tour then back to Nashville. However, I just found out I'm a finalist in the Kerrville Folk Festival "New Folk" Contest, so I'll be heading out to Texas again in May and I plan book some house concerts there and back. I should probably start that soon! But before that, what a week in northern California. Thank you…
Santa Rosa (the Toastman nearly got left out of this one! I quick snagged him and jumped back into the photo. Action shot!)-
Santa Rosa again-
Just can't get enough. Santa Rosa-
San Francisco-
A lot of great memories to account for. Speaking of, it's tax time, and the host from last night is an accountant so I should probably give him his desk back. More to come!
ps He actually doesn't do taxes, but it made for a good ending to this entry:)

Bike Profile |
1962 Ariel Arrow If you like your British bikes to be a little bit different to the usual pushrod parallel twin, then John Walton's 250 two-stroke might just turn your head... After a lapse of twenty-something years (wife, kids, mortgage, blah blah blah) I thought it was about time I came back to bikes. A quick trawl on the internet revealed Bill Little's Barn and there it was: one Golden Arrow. The Arrow was Ariel's sporting two-stroke, brought out in 1959 and based around the twin-cylinder 249cc Leader. The reaction to the unfaired Arrow was positive, so from 1960 the gold and white bikes were given a slightly higher compression ratio (10:1) and a bigger bore Amal carb. The result was 20bhp at 6000rpm which would propel this 300lb machine to a very respectable 75mph. I knew before I saw it in real life that I was going to buy it. So I set off in the car with my wife, down to Bill's place, and soon to be the new owner of 1962 Ariel Arrow Super Sports. The previous owner had spent a fair amount on various parts, but there's always something more. Rather a lot more in fact! The engine was very smooth but smoked something awful, mostly from one cylinder. As it had been rebored, etc, I was assuming lack of use here... And after a few runs it soon cleared. My wife Winnie was very keen to ride pillion so after a quick run she promptly broke down (the bike, I hasten to add). Good start! Nothing beats being on one's hands and knees by the roadside, and seeing one's spouse tapping her foot. The points had fallen apart. Now we all know about bikers stopping to help, but this time three Velos sailed past, and guess who did stop? Right. A Suzuki rider. Thank you. Anyway, after the second set of points failed I thought electronic is needed here and thanks to Newtronic Systems, who can adapt their BSA twin system to suit the Arrow, the problem was solved with added power and smoother tick over. I had some chroming done to the engine cover and fork spats. The wheels were rebuilt by Central Wheel Components (lucky they had a pair of British Chrome rims in stock). Draganfly have provided many sundry parts; far too many to list here. Paul Goff provided halogen bulbs and some decent levers with adjusters that really helped to get adjustment from the front brake. Talking of front brakes, the Arrows have pretty much useless ones. New shoes, hub checked, still poor. But the rear brake is excellent, and when you use both brakes together there really isn't too much of a problem. I think the lack of front fork dive, because of the leading link forks, makes people think the brake is worse than it actually is. Back to the smoking: it doesn't now! Using modern two-stroke oil, cutting down the ratio, and renewing the jets in the carb have all but turned it into a non-smoker. I checked with Castrol who agreed cutting the oil down to two measures per gallon would be fine.
I have picked up a lot from eBay (see above), things like the red grips and ht leads and caps. Even found new-old-stock Champion N4 plugs. I'm convinced they are better than any modern equivalent, they never whisker up (honest). Now about the indicators. I can hear people saying: 'not standard, take 'em off.' But in today's traffic the average car driver doesn't see hand signals, so I feel safer with them. Same with the mirrors. And I like to think I have fitted something with a period look to them. Remember the Norton Electra and certain BMWs. I did not have to do too much with the paintwork, which was quite fair all round. The bike's not concours, and I don't wish it to be. But I use the bike a lot, and I cannot see how any bike can be kept perfect all the time. The only drawback is that the wife likes going out on the Arrow so much that I have to sneak out, so as to get some solo riding in! It goes really well, is very capable of keeping up with traffic and much more. Fuel consumption? Who cares! Just fill her up and go! |

What I think's important about the trick, though, is to make sure that your fish (shrimp in this case) doesn't carry the taste of the last steak you cooked, or the next strip steak you eat doesn't taste slightly like grouper. To avoid that, try the CrackerFood Grill Cleaning Method (CFGCM. We're trying acronyms at TOF so we can get a $22 million Recovery.gov grant to recover that old grill we're using).
- Get the grill white hot
- Get the biggest potato you have in the house and cut it in half
- Stick it with a grill fork (use your hand if you're brave) and rub the grill hard with the potato. The starch seals the grill and cleans it better than any method I've tried. Repeat with the other half, or cut the end of the dirty one, slice them thick, and grill them.
- Take two dozen (or more -- depends on how many people you're feeding) shrimp. I used 21-25 count. If they're any smaller, use a skewer to keep them from falling into the coals.
- Melt butter and mix with Worsteshire sauce. The taste of the butter and worstershire is a simple recipe, but will surprise you.
- Baste the shrimp in a small bowl with the melted butter and Worsteshire.
- Grill till they're solid and serve hot. Mixing scallops into the grill works well, and adds another texture to dinner.
Captain Scott Moore
Thanks to Captain Scott for his wonderful and simple recipes. You'll be seeing them on a regular basis.
shrimp on the grill . going to tell your readers . big grilling secretes you are al ways grilling meat on the grill and fish to. so if you do this your meat wont taste like fish and your fish taste like meat get your grill white hot. get the biggest potato and rub it on the grill the starch will seal the grill it works don't burn your self use a grill fork . now back to grilled shrimp I like to use 21-25 count shrimp . smaller shrimp just use a skewer . melt some butter mix in worcestershare sauce bast shrimp with it and grill . easy one good with scallops to

AuthenTec Sets 2 Fingerprint Biometric Industry Records
AuthenTec, the world leader in fingerprint sensor innovation and sales for more than five years, has set two fingerprint biometric industry records - shipping its 5 millionth fingerprint sensor, and being named worldwide leader in fingerprint sensors by global industry analyst firm Frost & Sullivan for the third time in a row.
AuthenTec has shipped its 5 millionth fingerprint sensor in five years - a record in the industry - which represents about two-thirds of all fingerprint sensors shipped during that period. The company now provides its unique Power of Touch to more than 100 different PC, wireless and access control products.
The company's sensors are used extensively in notebook and tablet computers, portable hard drives, mice, keyboards, memory keys, cell phones and other devices. The rate of adoption of the company's sensors continues to expand further into major mainstream PC and cell phone companies, with HP, Toshiba, Fujitsu, Motion Computing, APC, Samsung and LG all recently announcing new products featuring AuthenTec sensors.
"AuthenTec is helping to drive the worldwide adoption of biometrics in the consumer electronics industry," said Gary Shapiro, president and CEO of the Consumer Electronics Association. "Biometric sensors are a huge growth area. We are at the infancy of what will be a very large growth curve, heading toward biometric sensing devices becoming an important feature in consumer electronics."
In its second major announcement, AuthenTec was named the worldwide leader in fingerprint sensors for the third year in a row in a major research report on the biometrics market by global industry analyst firm Frost & Sullivan. AuthenTec received the firm's 2005 Market Leadership Award after extensive analysis, research and tracking of the biometrics industry for Frost & Sullivan's World Silicon Chip Fingerprint Market Report.
AuthenTec was named the three-peat winner of the award because of its overall leadership in the industry -- including significant growth in sensor shipments and revenues, new customer adoption in the PC and wireless markets, product introductions, and global marketplace expansion.
The award is based on AuthenTec's performance during 2004 and the first quarter of 2005. During that period, the company:
-- Shipped more than 2 million sensors to PC and wireless customers - more than any other company;
-- Added major new PC and wireless customers such as HP, Toshiba, Fujitsu, Samsung, Motion Computing, LGE and NTT DoCoMo;
-- Introduced the EntrePad 1510, the industry's smallest and lowest cost fingerprint sensor;
-- And announced a 50 percent expansion, with new operations in Asia, Europe and the U.S.
"AuthenTec has raised its profile in the industry and enhanced its credible reputation with continued project wins in the wireless and PC/network security markets, a comprehensive marketing push, and continuous product research and development to design smaller and lower cost sensors without compromising on quality," said Sapna Capoor, Frost & Sullivan industry analyst.
"AuthenTec's overall leadership in the silicon chip fingerprint industry can be attributed to its unique technology for fingerprint sensors, sustained key project wins in the Asia Pacific region for biometric cell phones, as well as key project wins globally for the PC/network security solution market. In addition, the company's ongoing development of distribution and marketing channels worldwide to ensure continued growth in both application areas holds it in a very strong position for future growth," she added.
To determine the award winner, Frost & Sullivan analysts track competitor unit, shipment, revenue, and market share within the industry, and determine if the recipient has excelled by substantially increasing one or more of the following areas: market share; revenue growth rates; profitability and market and technology innovation. The analysts then compare and rank the competitors for their relative position.
"The combined 5 millionth fingerprint sensor shipment and three-peat World Leadership Award are tremendous events for our company, and signal that biometrics has entered the mainstream consumer and commercial products market," said Scott Moody, president and CEO of AuthenTec. "We are excited by the increased demand for the advanced security, ease of use, and other benefits that our fingerprint sensors provide."
Founded in 1998 with a small team and a single prototype, AuthenTec today offers 14 different fingerprint sensors that are based on its patented TruePrint(R) technology, the only technology in production that reads below the surface of the skin to the live layer -- or true fingerprint. Unlike competing sensor technologies, TruePrint is not affected by common skin surface conditions including dry, worn, calloused, dirty or oily skin that can affect other sensors' ability to acquire accurate fingerprint images for user authentication purposes. That makes TruePrint the only fingerprint sensor technology capable of acquiring everyone's fingerprint under virtually any condition.
AuthenTec sensors are widely used in notebook and tablet PCs to provide advanced security and to replace the need for passwords -- allowing authorized users to easily and quickly access their files by simply touching or sliding their finger across the sensor surface, while restricting access to the computer and its files to only those enrolled. This reduces the risk of theft or fraud. AuthenTec sensors also make PCs easier to use, by enabling users to quickly open applications, switch desktop applications, or scroll through menus - at the simple swipe of their finger.
In cell phones, AuthenTec sensors combine security with a broad range of features and functions that are controlled at the simple touch or swipe of a finger. In security, the sensor replaces passwords and authenticates the phone's user - protecting buddy lists and stored photos, and providing additional security for m-commerce and mobile banking services that are gaining popularity worldwide. The same sensors enable users to easily personalize and operate their cell phones with multi-finger speed dial, instant buddy list access, and other functions. In addition, the sensors provide easy full navigation for wireless gaming.

Many skills are necessary for individuals to be successful workers, including academic knowledge, technical expertise, and general, cross-cutting abilities (often called employability skills, soft skills, workforce readiness skills, or career readiness skills) that are necessary for success in all employment levels and sectors.
Two major research studies involving surveys and feedback from large numbers of employers have established that "employability skills" outrank technical skills—or those skills needed for specific occupations based on industry standards—as the most important requirement for success in the workplace.1 Despite this, a 2007 report found that many young people lack the soft skills needed to excel in the workplace.2
Soft skills are generally defined as personal qualities, not technical, that translate into good job performance such as time-management and interpersonal skills. The Secretary's Commission on Achieving Necessary Skills (SCANS) identified five competencies and three foundational skills and personal qualities needed for successful job performance.
The five competencies follow:
Three foundational skills are believed to support the competencies above:
In 2007, the Office of Disability Employment Policy (ODEP) asked representatives from businesses that were recognized for their innovative and proactive efforts to recruit, hire, and promote people with disabilities to develop a list of essential skills for young workers. The skills the group identified were similar to those identified as key competencies for successful young workers in the SCANS report. They included networking, enthusiasm, professionalism, communication skills, teamwork, and problem solving.4
Soft skills can be developed through on-the-job coaching, in the classroom, through youth-serving organizations, and through service-learning and volunteering.
On-the-Job Coaching
Employers can encourage both technical and soft skill development through on-the-job coaching. Examples of on-the-job coaching are internships, apprenticeships, work-study programs, and training experiences where soft skills are learned through experiences. Although learning soft and technical skills on the job provides employees with an authentic learning experience, it can be challenging for employers to identify qualified coaches and allocate the appropriate staff time to ensure a focus on learning and skill development.5
Schools can prepare youth for the workplace by teaching soft skills or creating classroom environments that mimic work environments.6 These activities can make typical high school courses more relevant to students because almost everyone will work someday. Here are some essential workplace skills that can be taught in schools:
ODEP developed a curriculum for youth-serving professionals to assist them in working with in-school and out-of-school youth between the ages of 14 and 21, both with and without disabilities, in the development of employability skills. Soft Skills to Pay the Bills: Mastering Soft Skills for Workplace Success is a curriculum focused on teaching soft or workforce readiness skills to youth, including youth with disabilities. The basic structure of the program comprises hands-on, engaging activities that focus on six key skill areas: communication, enthusiasm and attitude, teamwork, networking, problem solving and critical thinking, and professionalism. The series also includes a soft skills video series with an accompanying discussion guide (PDF, 8 pages).
Youth Programs, Service-Learning, and Volunteering
Just like schools, service-learning projects, youth-serving organizations, and volunteering opportunities can also help foster soft skill development. For example, students who participate in service-learning have been found to develop increased tolerance of diversity and appreciation of other cultures, greater self-knowledge, personal efficacy, teamwork, leadership skills, compassion, selflessness, and intrinsic rewards.8
Employability Skills Framework
Resources on employability skills for employers, educators, and policymakers from the Office of Career, Technical, and Adult Education at the U.S. Department of Education.
Soft Skills to Pay the Bills—Mastering Soft Skills for Workplace Success
The Office of Disability Employment Policy developed this curriculum focused on teaching soft or workforce readiness skills to youth, including youth with disabilities. The curriculum was created for youth development professionals as an introduction to workplace interpersonal and professional skills. The curriculum targets youth ages 14 to 21 in both in-school and out-of-school environments. The basic structure of the program consists of modular, hands-on, engaging activities that focus on six key skill areas: communication, enthusiasm and attitude, teamwork, networking, problem solving and critical thinking, and professionalism.
The Secretary's Commission on Achieving Necessary Skills (SCANS) (PDF, 48 pages)
In 1990, the Secretary of Labor appointed a commission to determine the skills that our young people need to succeed in the world of work. The commission's fundamental purpose was to encourage a high-performance economy characterized by high-skill, high-wage employment. Although the commission completed its work in 1992, its findings and recommendations continue to be a valuable source of information for individuals and organizations involved in education and workforce development.
Teaching the SCANS Competencies (PDF, 120 pages)
This report compiles six articles that give education and training practitioners practical suggestions for applying SCANS in classrooms and the workplace.
Teaching Soft Skills (PDF, 9 pages)
The U.S. Department of Labor's Office of Disability Employment Policy provides a resource focused on how schools and employment opportunities can teach soft skills, specifically for students with disabilities.
Soft Skills: The Competitive Edge

Shaved Brussels Sprout Salad with Red Onion, Lemon and Pecorino
Author Notes: A few weeks ago while having dinner at one of our favorite neighborhood restaurants, Stone Park Cafe, my husband and I shared one of those rare and wonderful dishes that grabs hold of your taste buds and doesn't let go. It was simplicity itself: delicately shaved raw Brussels sprouts with wisps of red onion, a light, lemony dressing spiked generously with whole grain mustard, and a generous hit of tangy Pecorino. I immediately declared that I would try and replicate it at home, and this was met with great enthusiasm by my husband. I'd serve this as a first course, with a nice, crisp white like Gruner Veltliner. - Merrill Stubbs
Serves 6
- 1/2 small red onion
- Juice of 1 lemon
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 1 teaspoon whole grain mustard
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 3 cups Brussels sprouts (use larger sprouts if possible)
- 1/2 cup finely grated pecorino romano
- Soak the onion slices in a small bowl of cold water for 15 to 20 minutes while you prepare the rest of the ingredients.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, honey, mustard and a pinch of salt and pepper. Whisk in the olive oil until the dressing is emulsified. Set aside.
- Trim all of the Brussels sprouts, cutting off any bruised outer leaves and slicing off a good portion of the hard root end. Using a mandoline, shave the sprouts one at a time. When you're done, use your fingers to gently separate the leaves so that the shredded sprouts resemble a very fine slaw.
- Put the sprouts in a serving bowl and toss gently with the onions (which you've now drained) and the dressing. Fold in the pecorino, taste and adjust seasonings if necessary. Serve immediately, before it starts to wilt!

This is a great way to use Brussels sprouts. When I get an especially tough batch of sprouts, you can also saute them for a few minutes to help soften them up. Add the dressing, and it's more of a warm slaw. Delish. Thanks Merrill!

Loved this (served with pasta bolognese), but I thought the brussel sprouts needed to soak up the dressing in order to become softened and palatable

Oh, and I cut back a bit on the shaved brussels sprouts.......

To disguise the brussels sprouts, I varied this by using arugula with the shaved brussels sprouts and red onion. I left out the romano. The dressing is still perfect with it. I get so many compliments and everyone is surprised when I tell them afterwards that there are raw brussels sprouts in it. The arugula gives it a nice flavor that goes well with the other ingredients.

Eating this salad as I write and it is scrumptious. I agree with earlier comments. It's much too heavy on the lemon, so next time I would reduce the amount. I added dried cranberries, and prepped my brussels sprouts with a food processor -- easy-peasy. Love it!

I made this for the second time tonight. Last time for a dinner party, tonight fire or weekly food prep, it really holds up quite well. This time I had no red pontoons so used shallots, still great.
It will be one of the vegetarian dishes I make for my son's first birthday next month, it is that good.

I added zest of a meyer lemon to the dressing, I like the sweeter flavor of that in addition to the juice as a balanced dressing.

This was so quick and easy to make. I didn't have any lemons so I used apple cider vinegar. Super yum!

I roasted some of the shaved brussel sprouts to add some texture added almonds and skipped the cheese. It was fantastic

This recipe has gotten me through the winter without getting sick of sprouts. Absolutely delicious for lunches throughout the week if you keep the dressing separate (I just keep the mason jar in the fridge at work). The first time I found the dressing a bit too acidic for my test, but I just added a bit more oil and honey until I found the right balance.

Made this tonight for dinner my hubby hates Brussels sprouts (or so he thought) this wags absolutely wonderful!

Last week I had a similar salad at Clyde's here in the D.C. area. They served it on a long rectangular plate with toasted pine nuts and the cheese was in thin shards over the top. Dressed so lightly that it seemed dry, but they did put 1/2-tsp dots of creamy whole grain mustard vinaigrette at intervals around the perimeter of the plate. If you had one of those Kyocera ceramic mini mandolines, it would be ideal for getting extremely fine and uniform shreds of brussels sprouts. This is on my try-at-home list, and I also plan to try it with Edward Giobbi's Foriana sauce (also on this site). That sauce is terrific to have on hand in the fridge. Its like a walnut garlic pine nut pesto with whole golden raisins, served with pecorino. It is sensational.

I love this salad!! Used the mandolin (didn't cut off the stem end and folded the outer leaves back for a "handle" to slice them, then discarded the very bottom". Added a few reduced sugar craisins, a few toasted almonds - wonderful! I think dressing the salad a little before serving (as you do cole slaw) would be nice too. Thanks you for a new favorite!

I made this with parmesan and it was amazingly delicious. I also used a sharp knife to cut the sprouts into thin strips. it took forever, but was worth it. Finally-- i sautéed the red onions for a bit to take the sting out and that worked well too. An adaptable recipe for sure!

great tip on the onions. .will try next time. . or slice the onions on the mandolin

How many cups do the brussels sprouts end up being once shredded? I'm hoping to use the pre-shredded sprouts from TJs!

Kingston DTI G3 8GB USB
7/24/2013Use this version of the USB since 256MB, and almost all of them are still working Great, Last very long and price are hard to beat at around six to eight dollars.
KinT from Elk Grove
superb cute
7/19/2013Superb it stores all my data and very use fulll
Very Convenient
3/4/2013This is a sleek drive. It's really very compact and easy to carry in your pant pocket, purse or wallet. And it comes very handy. Dane-Elec is a name I trust as I have been using its products and they all work well and are durable. This drive has no cap so while on the go, I don't have to worry about taking the cap off and placing it somewhere where I need to remember to pick it up later like other drives. Since it has no detaching parts, I don't have to worry about losing it.
Very Happy With It
3/3/2013What Can I say? It's a memory card that works. I am using it in a video doorbell system that records users that ring the bell. Card works fine in this application although it may not be sutable for higher speed application like digital cameras where a high speed card would be better.
fast and easy!
12/12/2012Very good drive for the price. Decent transfer speeds. It does feel sort of flimsy and I always have trouble taking the cap off. It's made of a slick plastic material and fit very tightly over the USB connector. Would buy again, though. Awesome product with less price.. Love this cute one. I would recommend this for everyone.
Great item
11/12/2012It has helped me plenty
Affordable Flash Drive
10/11/20128GB is a good size for taking your files on the go. The read/write is fast enough for the price.

Great Deal...plain and simple
7/2/2012Timely delivery! Great Value! Easy to Use. This is my 3rd Kingston purchase. Very please with all product purchases!
Tom from Fort Myers, FL
Love Kingston brand products
6/6/2012Love Kingston brand products
KAUMIL from AVENEL, NJ
Best among all other Brand.
6/4/2012Kingston is the best flash drive among all other available brands and 8 GB flash drive in just [$] is worth buying. Great read/write speed and available in many attractive colors. A well-built cap protects the USB plug and your data.
highly recommended !!!
5/16/2012The flash drive has turned out to be a silver lining too. After I found out I would not be able to install Linux on my desktop, I found that I can actually install various Linux distros to the flash drive and boot from it instead (search for pen drive linux), with plenty of space still to spare.
my favorite flash drive
4/19/2012These Kingston Data Traveler flash drives are my absolute favorites! This one is especially useful because 8G is the perfect size for business and personal files, photos, etc. I carry these with me when I travel, at home and office and have them stashed near every computer. A great bargain. Prices have gone down so far in recent years that you can't afford NOT to have these handy.
Vicki from Jerseyville, IL
Great flash drive
4/10/2012This is a great flash drive worth every penny! Its bright yellow so it never gets lost in my desk or purse. I use this everyday for transferring highly confidential files and I have not had any trouble with it. I would highly recommend this flash drive to anyone looking to get their money's worth.
Launders Well
3/9/2012The 8GB model I purchased accidentally went through the washing machine. Twice. Once with colors, once with hot water and bleach. Still works fine.
This drive is just standard speed!
11/28/2011I double checked with the Kingston site and all G3 products below 16gb are standard speed. Look closely at the specs: 16GB, 32GB: 10MB/sec. read, 5MB/sec. write.. While correct this is deceptive!! This drive is just an ordinary standard speed drive...
10/2/2011Great Item
excellent Item good price
9/24/2011i got the item, excellent item with this good price
Ab from Pawtucket
cannot beat this
9/2/2011*gig for under 10 bucks delivered? could not pass this up!!!!! generation 3 top of the line, I use this item daily and kingston is a name you can trust as well. Thank you buy.com for making it easy. A local electronics store would cost 3 times as much plus gas and my valuable time
magix from chandler az
Good product!
7/21/2011It works as expected. It looks and feels as a high quality USB drive. It is a USB 2.0
JC from Harrisburg, PA
Can't go wrong
7/21/2011Super price-Best I found on the internet. Color of case makes it easy to remember what I loaded onto it.
Good price point. Proven Brand.
7/20/2011The price was right, so I decided to give this product a try. It offers 7.44 GBs of storage space. It is very sturdy in its construction. Most USB flash drives I have owned have been much lighter. I got this at a decent price during Buy.com's recent promotion. Had it not been on promotion, I would have brought a G2. It is not substantially faster than its predecessor. I just save a few seconds when I transfer movies to it. Also, keep in mind this is not a USB 3.0. If you are looking for that, do not buy this. G3 does not mean USB 3.0.
jacque from houston, tx
Love Kingston "Sticks"
6/30/2011My 3 year old son has two of these yellow ones, one for each TV with movies on them so he can watch his favorite shows quickly and easily. Our stack of DVDS is now in the cabinet and he doesn't have to touch them or the DVD player.
Balynce from Dexter, MI
This is NOT an USB 3.0 device!
3/22/2011Be careful about the marketing of this product as a "G3" or "Generation 3" product. Imagine my surprise after ordering several of these drives to find they are only USB 2.0 devices. USB 3.0 runs 10 times faster than USB 2.0, so be aware of what you're buying, before you put your money down.
Frequent Buyer from Boca Raton, Florida
Washes well!
2/13/2011I just pulled my 1gb Datatraveler out of the dryer, It looks just like this 4gb version, and i can't find the 1gb version to review on this site, so i thought i would just post this here. My 1gb just went thru the washer and dryer, with the cap on, and the data stored on it is just fine, accessible and all there. I have had this drive for years and use it to transfer documents, music and such things from one computer to another. I have several of them, 2gb, 8gb, and 16gb, My husband uses the big ones to store/use an extensive music collection which he hooks up to the radio in his 18 Wheeler. He has all his music at his fingertips as he travels on down the road, bouncing and jiggling the poor data drive which keeps on working, so far for a year or more! Great drives!
Peggy from Milwaukee, WI
Failed after three weeks
12/24/2010This drive failed and all data lost after two weeks. Seller didn't return e-mails requesting a refund. Will never buy from them again.
A customer from Middletown, NJ
Good product
12/13/2010I am very happy with my purchase. do not hesitate to buy cause it is a good product and worth all the money
ZoomTc from Ketchum, Id
8 GIGS for 13 BUCKS!!!!
12/11/2010Wow...top of the line KINGSTON 8GB flash drive for next to nothing!!! What a great deal. Twice the room of my old flash drive at half the cost. This is easy to use....plug and play USB 2.0 that works great in both of my computers.Buy.com shipped the drive immediately for FREE. You can't beat that!
Keith from Maricopa California
Great Price - Respected Brand Name
12/10/2010What can I say, Kingston is a well respected name in memory storage cards and flash drives, it works like it should without problems. I purchased this one because it was offered at a very low price. Buy.com shipped the drive immediately for FREE. You can't ask for more than that (well I guess you could but only at the point of being ridiculous.)
Happy in Virginia from Virginia
Cap Holder
12/9/2010I have purchased other Kingston flash drives where the cap would click onto the opposite end of the drive when in use. This drive does not have such a feature, and I know that it's only a matter of time until it falls off and I lose the cap. I don't understand why Kingston would remove such a useful feature.
John P. Kyle from Bethesda, Maryland
Great capacity at a great price
12/6/2010Use this for backing up my work files to bring home and to have available when using my home laptop. Works nice as a backup copy for files inadvertently deleted. Works well with second copy program for automating file back ups to the USB drive.
billnie50 from Fargo ND
Product as promised---fast
12/4/2010The price on this product was excellent and was delivered very fast. It is enough storage to hold all my photos and much additional music to be able to transfer it around. It has worked flawlessly.
A customer from Saint Peters, Missouri
My 8GB G3 Flash Drive
12/4/2010I like this Flash Drive. It works well & is a very convienient way to transport data. The only thing I'm disappointed with is the slot in the case for attaching some sort of a strap for carrying. The opening in the slot should be a little larger to get a strap easily through
Dan from S. Burlington, Vt
Good products from Kingston
11/25/2010I bought 2 of these, and they are working great and meeting my original expectations. I can't tell the exact speed, but they are faster than another USB drive I got from Microcenter as a free gift.
NN from Irvine, CA
Kingston 8GB DataTraveler Generation 3 (G3) USB Fl
11/15/2010Not much faster than a G2 Data Traveler but the price was right.

It's thus somewhat ironic, don't you think, that Apple's products have led to a global erosion of the time people spend silently reflecting, awaiting inspiration.
Newton did not actually get hit on the head by an apple but saw one fall from a tree in Lincolnshire, England, while grappling to formulate his theory of gravitation.
"Whilst he was pensively meandering in a garden it came into his thought that the power of gravity (which brought an apple from a tree to the ground) was not limited to a certain distance from earth," writes William Stukeley in his gripping 1752 biography of Newton.
I wonder what would have happened if, instead of "pensively meandering", Newton had been fiddling with his iPhone, listening to his iPod or checking out a LOLcats video on his iPad?
With his attention focused elsewhere, I dare say the great man would never have seen that apple fall and we might still be looking to Gallileo to explain gravity.
It also makes you wonder how many moments of history-altering inspiration have been stolen from us by Apple and its competitors' addictive and often compulsive technological inventions.
Look at your average person waiting for a bus and, nine times out of 10, they'll be fiddling with their phone instead of just watching the world go by.
As a writer, I find those moments hypnotic because the people around us reveal so much about themselves through simple actions and this is the grist of character.
It's also a good time to ponder whether you're really going to leave your husband, what your next career move might be, or to ruminate about any one of life's big questions.
However, that's nigh impossible if you're streaming radio on your iPhone or tweeting about your bus being late.
Runners and walkers worldwide also now forego the chance for reflection by filling their ears with dollops of decibels via iPods, while others can't even cross a road without texting their bestie.
In his essay The End of Solitude, writer William Deresiewicz makes the observation "Man may be a social animal, but solitude has traditionally been a societal value. In particular, the act of being alone has been understood as an essential dimension of religious experience."
It's fair to say Buddha wouldn't have reached enlightenment if he'd spent 40 days under the Bodhi Tree talking on his mobile instead of meditating.
Jesus also probably would have struggled during his 40 days in the wilderness if he was constantly trawling Facebook on his laptop instead of resisting temptation by Satan (who undoubtedly has roaming Wi-Fi).
"You cannot hear God when people are chattering at you," Deresiewicz wrote.
"Young people today seem to have no desire for solitude, have never heard of it, can't imagine why it would be worth having.
"In fact ... our use of technology seems to involve a constant effort to stave off the possibility of solitude, a continuous attempt, as we sit alone at our computers, to maintain the imaginative presence of others," he says.
It also means we rarely get the chance to reflect on and explore who we actually are because we're either bombarded with distractions or reacting to what strangers think of us.
Many people, however, would argue that technology actually aids their inspiration and self-awareness and that it's a moot argument anyhow, because it's impossible to succeed in today's world without it.
For them, I suggest reading up on Mikhail Prokhorov, the second-wealthiest man in Russia, the world's 39th richest person and the current owner of NBA team the New Jersey Nets.
Prokhorov says he cannot type, doesn't own a mobile phone and (unlike Jesus) doesn't have an e-mail address or Facebook account.
"I don't use a computer. We have too much information and it's impossible to filter it," he told US 60 Minutes in March.
Prokhorov also likes to write letters. On paper.
And I reckon he just might pen them under an apple tree.
* For those of you who will no doubt say I partly poached this idea from this article I can assure you this column was written over the weekend of June 19-20, well before that article was published.
For those of you frustrated that a stoopid, soft-peddling men's issues blogger cast aside his knitting writing about dicks and dating and got "spun" by Tony Abbott, feel free to send through your "hard questions" for the Leader of the Opposition.
I chatted to Abbott again yesterday and he seemed amenable to meeting once more before the election, so send in your questions and I'll see if I can put them to him. Maybe, we'll have two beers next time.

Customergene from naples FL
The repair was simple. The filter arrived in just a few days after i ordered it. All I had to do was to remove the old lint filter and replace it with the new one. At the time i received the new lint filter I was a bit concerned because the lint filter was a bit bent being shipped in a box that was a git to small for the filter. That ended up not being an issue in the long run. I would recommend part select anyone needing parts.gene mille

Locals need pesos too....I've never had a problem finding a Bancomer, Banamex or ATM with another bank. I've stayed away from free standing ATM's. The Cambias will exchange money but rates are not as good, sometimes fees are higher at different bancos.
San Felipe, San Igancio, Mulege, Loreto, Walmart in La Paz, Constitucion, even San Juanico if memory serves. Just ask a local for the Banco, they have to get cash for themselves. Just don't count on using a credit card in the small businesses or towns because they can't process them......

Viewers discover that Jackson fought in the Revolutionary War when he was 13 years old and that he used the skills learned in battle to kill a man over a gambling debt; that Jackson led the American army to the most surprising victory in its history in the Battle of New Orleans, but that he also launched an unauthorized invasion of Florida; that Jackson was the first great champion of the common white man and owned more than a hundred black Americans; that Jackson dramatically expanded the United States and did so by brutally wresting vast regions of the south from Native Americans; that Jackson, in one of the boldest political strokes in history, founded the Democratic Party, yet was viewed by his enemies as an American Napoleon. The film concludes with the words of Jackson's first biographer, James Parton: "Andrew Jackson was a patriot, and a traitor. He was the greatest of generals, and wholly ignorant of the art of war. He was the most candid of men, and capable of the profoundest dissimulation. He was a democratic autocrat, an urbane savage, an atrocious saint." 120 minutes. br>

It's wonderful how the Lord is using women in the church to be an influence for good and righteousness to the world. Anytime someone's life is touched for the better I'm sure the Lord is pleased. After all, isn't joy the object of our existence? "Adam fell that men might be, and men are, that they might have joy." 2Ne. 2:25.

B/c so many are unemployed stay-at-home moms! Who else has time to blog?

@LValfre -
A stay-at-home mother is not unemployed. She works as
hard or harder than a woman who chooses to leave her children in the care of
others to go seek a career outside of her home. The fact that they can do that
AND find time to blog speaks more to their ability to multi-task and get things
accomplished than to their amount of free time.
Respect mothers!

Thank you, BigSamoan, for reminding me of essential and peculiar LDS theology of
"man's happiness". I haven't heard that taught for the past
27 years that I have been an avid born-again, Biblical follower of Jesus!
It isn't a Biblical goal or teaching: Rather the Bible teaches
that man's goal is to glorify God. If happiness is granted, so be it.
Ultimate happiness and true joy will only be found in God's Eternal
Kingdom for those who accept our Lord Jesus Christ's sacrifice.
Sometimes it takes a fresh look from member's sharing and exuberance to
recall former teachings. Since all my family are LDS, we have love of family in
common and spend our shared time enjoying each other's families and
activities, not in discussing theological differences.
You have given
me an inspirational idea for a "former Mormon" blog, so that the
theology can be shared and discussed by those who request it. For years I have
had packets with former members' testimonies. Now I see a way to reply
without offense, maintaining the "happiness" of our friendships.

I love the comment from Chicago denigrating stay-at-home moms. Note: usually to be a stay at home parent it takes another member of the parenting team working and earning a living to support the family. Dare I say that if Chicago had more stay-at-home moms (and the committed fathers providing for their families) Chicago wouldn't have near the gang, crime, drop-out, (new term) "gun violence" problem that they do now becuase they have chosen to disregard the value of a strong two parent family unit.

I love how the born-again community will often denounce and refute the restored gospel and then in the next sentence affirm it. After chiding an LDS poster for using an LDS scrpture that says "men are that they might have joy" the post goes on to affirm "Ultimate happiness and true joy will only be found in God's Eternal Kingdom for those who accept our Lord Jesus Christ's sacrifice". Do they not understand that both posters are essentially saying the same thing? Do you really think that there is an LDS belief that ultimate joy is possible without accepting that Jesus is Lord and Savior? Maybe someone needs the discussions again.

I'm not saying anything negative about stay-at-home moms. I was raised by 2 working parents ... pretending a stay-at-home mom works as hard being a mother as a mom who works FT AND is a mother is flawed. But nothing against them. It's just reality like others posted ... more free time! Especially when kids are of age to be in school the majority of the day. Momma's at home blogging, cleaning, cooking, etc.

1- Someone in Centerville needs sweetener with that vinegar. Be nice and
enjoy life. Just because people don't share all points of theology,
doesn't mean that they are trying to denigrate. You can disagree amicably,
or define differences w/out a debate.
I meant no insult, just a
factual comment on the Mormon teaching that I grew up with. Some deep Bible
study will help one understand my comment that there is nothing close to 2Nephi
2:25 in the Bible. I taught everything from seminary, Relief Society Education
to my BYU ward Sunday School class for 35 years. I know the differences. Some
are subtle, some stark.
2- I think the "too much time"
comments can be true, but they are not universally accurate. I have several
neices who blog, many who essentially do that on Facebook. Most of the FBers
are working moms; all of the bloggers are. We are amazed at the discipline and
time involved, all in the wee hours. Their reasons vary, but the common thread
is to leave a journal legacy for their children and ancestors. Now that is

No offense but it is just ignorant to think that a mom that works FT and parents works any less harder than a stay at home mom. Let me give you some advice, if you have no idea what it is like to work FT and be a parent then pipe up.

Most Mom's whether LDS or something else are blogging to make money, and then have to find the time. Stay-at-home mothers don't have a lot of time on their hands. They are doing the work of housekeeper, maid, chef, babysitter, transporting their children, and seeing that they are making their home the best they can. Many blogger Mom's do it at night when everyone is asleep. Many work so hard at it, that they make more money than the breadwinner. Also I know some blogging Mom's who also have a full time job and do this for extra money. Whoever said that being a stay-at-home mom gives you lots of free time is nuts.

My wife has been both a working mom and a stay-at-home mom. Both have their
challenges, and neither leaves mom with much free time. I'm sure other
peoples' experiences are different, but that's what we've
experienced in our home.
I took on my wife's responsibilities
for a few days when we had three young children at home. It was eye-opening. I
had no idea how much she did just to keep up the house. I recommend that every
working parent with a stay-at-home spouse go through this exercise. It helped
me gain a much greater appreciation for what my wife does and how hard she
works. It has greatly helped us understand each other's needs and

Comments about Berroco Boboli Quick:
Beautiful product; and I was very stoked to get this one on sale. High quality yarn, beautiful hand. Drapes very well and should be used for this purpose (I wouldn't make anything highly-structured from it). The yarn is a bit slippery once knit up and it is heavy, so that should be kept in mind. Colors are much more vibrant than I got from the pic (Poppyseed), but still glorious. A great yarn for accessories or a statement piece like a wrap, to be sure.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

The product itself is great, but the two skeins of Rosehip 7368 that I received in the mail are NOT the colors pictured. They are a much darker yarn, which I would not have purchased if the pictures were accurate.
The attached picture is actually LIGHTER than the color of my skeins due to flash.

The neighbors know what they are talking about in terms of there being Anonymous involvement. The neighbors are on scene, they've seen it.
"No evidence"? You need to do a lot more research. There is multitudinous amount of evidence. This was organized for months prior to the start on Sept 17. The professional organizers were exchanging emails on this back as early as March. They worked on this in Spain and thought they could do something similar here. Anonymous came on board officially in August with a "OWS Message" video not unlike their "Message to Scientology" video. They have been posting on the Anonymous protest website about involvement in OWS since the beginning. You can see involvement of Anon in many of the protests-hence the Guy Fawkes mask involvement, which is an anon symbol to protect identity(first used in the protests of Scientology). That's why the mask is there.
Anon's part, at least in the beginning of this "occupation" didn't just involve providing bodies, but also were involved in a DDOS attack on the NYSE. Google Anonymous and NYSE attack and you can pull up the Forbes account of the attack which really didn't do much. It was Anon that figured out the identitiy of Officer Bologna in the pepper spray incident. The have hacked police sites in several cities and leaked police information, in support of OWS and been threatening sitll further action. Anon involvement is even listed on its Wikipedia page. Google Anonymous and OWS to read more about its involvement.
Think of Anonymous as sort of a big umbrella term. 1. You have those that protest Scientology. 2. You have those that were involved in attacking Pay Pal and Visa, Wikileaks, Anti Sec and Lulzsec spinoffs. This second group spun off some who are involved in OWS, this includes AnonOps that was involved in most of Wikileaks, PayPal DDOS actions. But also involved in DDOS in support in Tunisia and the Arab Spring. This is a relatively small contingent, but was, in part, responsible for many of the initial bodies coming out in the various cities (other people, as I have said before were a mix of professional activists, who are really the ideological control, and college kids that just want to improve things).
The bigger part of Anonymous, the third group, such as those on 4 chan, think all the protests are stupid and despise the first two groups as being lame. They are actually very much against OWS and have trolled OWS. Most of the people involved in the first group as well have nothing to do with OWS as well.

No vocals (as usual) just kick ass Slayer music. (a little bit shorter because no vocals)
Rated 3 / 5 stars
This was decent
This wasnotbad it was actually fast really fast, maybe you can slow it down abit, kinda take in all the notes, also some backround effects wouldnt hurt so if you slow it down abit and add some backround effects will give it a more unique tune, but besides that it was pretty good, also seemed abit on the short side, so maybe you could add abit more to the whole tune, anyways nice track here could use abit more work though.
slow it down abit and add some backround effects will give it a more unique tune, could be longer aswell.
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars
Not perfect, but pretty damn good!
It isn't perfect, but no one can play Raining Blood perfectly, especially not me. Very good though. I like it. I do agree with MetalPhazon, but despite a few flaws, it's probably the best Raining Blood Cover I've ever heard.
Rated 5 / 5 stars
Nice one.
One thing though. SLOW DOWN BUDDY! You played it a little too fast and that made it very messy. Especially the beginning, that was definately a bit off.
Cheers man. Yeah, this version totally sucks. I cringe when I listen to it now!
I should re-do it, I'd do so much better if I did it today.

New Delhi: India's challenge in the archery team event came to an end at London Olympics 2012 on Day 2 when women's team of Deepika Kumari, Bombayla Devi and Chekrovolu Swuro was knocked out by Denmark in the pre-quarters by a close margin of 210-211 at Lord's. However, there were some positives for India in the form of rower Swarn Singh Virk, shuttler Saina Nehwal and boxer Jai Bhagwan.
Swarn was the first good news for India on Sunday, living up to his promise by winning the repechage round of the men's singles sculls to reach the quarter-finals. There was more good news from the badminton court where Saina, seeded fourth, won her opening match of the women's singles event at London's Wembley Arena. In men's boxing, Bhagwan (60kg) began his Olympic journey on a positive note as he beat Andrique Allisop of Seychelles 18-8 in the first round of the lightweight category at the Excel Arena.
Swarn qualified for the quarter-final stage of the men's singles sculls in rowing, leading the five-rower race from the start with free-flowing strokes. Only South Korea's Kim gave him a scare. A few hours later, Saina, ranked No. 5 in the world, beat Switzerland's Sabrina Jacquet 21-9, 21-4 in just over 22 minutes to lift Indian spirits. The 27-year-old Bhagwan was the third Indian boxer to have qualified for the London Olympics and his success in the highly competitive lightweight category has given Indian boxing a shot at making it to the medal rounds.
India's women archers and shooters and the mixed doubles badminton pair disappointed, however.
The rest of the country's Olympic contingent continued to perform disappointingly. There had been a lot of hope attached to female archers Deepika, Bombayla and Swuro, who started the 1/8 Elimination Round on a bad note and could never recover against the consistent Dane archers Louise Laursen, Maja Jager and Carina Christiansen, who kept their best for the last. What really ailed India was the indifferent form of Deepika, while Bombayla was in good touch and hit three 10s in a row.
The Indian archers managed to win the first and last sets, but the Danes held the overall lead. The Indian trio now has to look forward to the individual events starting on Monday. The men's team was beaten by Japan on Saturday.
In the men's singles table tennis event, Soumyajit Ghosh lost his second round match to DPR Korea's HB Kim in five games. The Indian paddler made a good start, winning the first game 11-9, but Kim prevented Ghosh from taking the lead as he won the next four games 11-6, 11-5, 11-9, 11-9 and the match comfortably.
There was more disappointment from the Royal Artillery Barracks as shooters Heena Sidhu and Annu Raj Singh failed to qualify for the 10m Air Pistol event. Heena finished 12th with 382 points while Annu was 23rd with 378 points.
In badminton, the mixed doubles pair of Jwala Gutta and V Diju losing their second straight match to the Danish combination of Thomas Laybourn and Kamilla Rytter Juhl on Sunday to bow out of the Olympics. Jwala and Diju lost 21-12, 21-16 at the Wembley arena in another lopsided contest. On Saturday, they had gone down in straight games to Indonesia's Tontowi Ahmad and Liliyana Natsir in their opening group match. They have one match to go, but it is an insignificant one.
In the men's lightweight double sculls first heat, India's Sandeep Kumar and Manjeet Singh finished fourth and will be participating in the repechage on Monday.

Redding, Stephen (1996) The low-skill, low-quality trap: strategic complementarities between human capital and R & D. Economic Journal, 106 (435). pp. 458-470. ISSN 0013-0133

This paper investigates the relationship between investments in human capital and R & D in a model of endogenous growth. Both forms of investment exhibit pecuniary externalities and are, as a result strategic complements. Multiple equilibria may occur for intermediate parameter values, and the present analysis may be seen as providing a theoretical rationalisation for the idea that an economy may become trapped in a 'low-skills' equilibrium, characterised by a poorly trained workforce and low product quality. In the presence of multiple equilibria, there may be a welfare-improving role for government policy in co-ordinating expectations.

EGL is an interface between Khronos rendering APIs (such as OpenGL, OpenGL ES or OpenVG) and the underlying native platform windowing system. EGL handles graphics context management, surface/buffer binding, rendering synchronization, and enables "high-performance, accelerated, mixed-mode 2D and 3D rendering using other Khronos APIs."[2] EGL is managed by the non-profit technology consortium Khronos Group.
The acronym EGL is an initialism, which starting from EGL version 1.2 refers to Khronos Native Platform Graphics Interface.[3] Prior to version 1.2, the name of the EGL specification was OpenGL ES Native Platform Graphics Interface.[4] X.org development documentation glossary defines EGL as "Embedded-System Graphics Library".[5]
As interface between OpenGL ES or OpenVG and the underlying windowing system, EGL has found wide adoption
- The BlackBerry 10 and BlackBerry Tablet OS mobile device operating system uses EGL for 3D graphics rendering. Both support EGL version 1.4.[6]
- The Android mobile device operating system uses EGL for 3D graphics rendering.[7]
- The Wayland display server protocol uses EGL.[8] It is implemented in a way that Wayland clients will draw directly to the framebuffer using EGL.
- Mesa 3D has an implementation of EGL formerly known as Eagle.[9]
- The Mir display server protocol by Canonical Ltd. uses EGL.[10]
- The Simple DirectMedia Layer toolkit has been ported to use EGL. It can use Xlib, write directly to the framebuffer or use EGL.
- The Raspberry Pi single-board computer has an EGL interface to hardware-accelerated 3D graphics rendering.[11]
- The proprietary Nvidia driver 331.13 BETA from 4 October 2013 supports the EGL API.[12]
- Tizen OS uses EGL with either OpenGL ES 1.1 or OpenGL ES 2.0 for 3D graphics rendering[13]
- Mesa is a free and open-source software implementation of many graphic rendering APIs; beneath them is EGL.
- Generic Buffer Management is an API to manage buffers.
