NEW DELHI: Proceedings in the Lok Sabha were disrupted at least thrice through the day on Thursday, as members of the Communist Party of India (Marxist) and the Trinamool Congress engaged in a war of words over the violence in West Bengal. This also resulted in one adjournment of the House in the pre-lunch session.
Later, briefing the media, CPI(M) Polit Bureau member Sitaram Yechury accused the Centre of patronising anarchy and violence in the State by backing the Trinamool Congress, which was allowing the Maoists to make inroads under its umbrella. "The Congress should rein in their political partner," he said.
Referring to the Prime Minister's description of Maoist violence as the biggest threat to internal security, Mr. Yechury wanted to know how he could then have one of his own Cabinet colleagues promote Maoists elements. "How long will this contradiction continue?" he said.
According to Mr. Yechury, the Maoists were entering new areas in West Bengal under the guise of the Trinamool Congress. "Their game-plan is to create anarchy and violence and then use it as a pretext for the imposition of Central rule so that the Assembly elections can be held under President's Rule. This will only undermine democracy and the Constitution," he said.
'No objection to visit'
On whether the CPI(M) would oppose a Central team visit to the State — demanded by Trinamool Congress leader and Railway Minister Mamata Banerjee — Mr. Yechury said his party had no objection to such a visit as it would only vindicate its stand.
About the Trinamool Congress' charge that the CPI(M) was indulging in a blood bath and killing its workers, Mr. Yechury said: "We have challenged them to give a list of their workers who have been killed. Till date, they have not done so, while we have published the list of CPI(M) workers who have been killed along with their addresses. They have killed 200 of our workers." Earlier, the Trinamool Congress tried to raise the issue of violence against its workers as soon as the Lok Sabha met for the day. A second attempt was made after Question Hour, resulting in the two sides entering into a verbal duel, with Congress members from Kerala joining in against the Left.

This recipe is great. Very good with very little added sugar. I only have two complaints: one, the topping is very thick, and almost impossible to spread. It needs more liquid or butter in it. Two, the filling doesn't taste quite as good as it may with only cherries. I will make it again, but will probably use extra liquid in the topping and use another cup of cherries instead of the raspberries.
Cherry Crisp
From EatingWell: The Simple Art of EatingWell
A fruit crisp offers the luscious flavor of a fresh fruit pie without the fuss of making a crust. Celebrate the arrival of cherries with this rich-tasting crisp. The nut-studded topping works great with other fruit combinations too.

Koch & Associates is a manufacturer and distributor of safety products for the propane industry. With over forty years of experience in the industry, we understand the concerns that marketers and dealers have with safety and the need for day to day compliance with codes and standards.
Propane Marketers know the NFPA 54 code requires a leak check of a gas piping system for new installations or whenever there is an interruption of service, such as an out of gas delivery. The question is: when their bobtail driver or service personnel need to do the test, do they have the equipment available that makes this as convenient, and cost effective as possible? If they are still using a high pressure test block for leak check testing, the answer is no. Using a high pressure test block is time consuming and not cost effective.
Manufacturers of gas regulators have supplied regulators with outlet/inlet pressure taps for several years. This feature is utilized in current state of the art leak check testing assemblies manufactured by Koch & Associates rather than using high pressure test blocks.
When using Koch & Associates gauge assemblies or kits with a pressure tap in a gas regulator, it is no longer necessary to install the high pressure test block, making the procedure less time consuming, more convenient for the bobtail driver or service personnel and more cost effective for the marketer. All this also makes it more likely the test will be done in compliance with the code and your company policies.
In addition, testing gas regulators to record the flow set point and lockup pressures is often required when installing new appliances or trouble shooting appliance performance. Koch & Associates has kits available for service personnel that are designed for this requirement and can also be used for leak check testing.

What was the response after calling on this number? To Write ClickHere
We purchased a brinkman grill 5/20/13 and there was a sign that said "free assembly". When aked to ave it assembled we were told it is only done twice a week and it takes five days before the people come to your home. This is false advertisement since the restrictions weren't specified. I want to use my grill for memorial day and had to have someone else put it up. It was : hours to put it ogethe. I m very disappointed.

Chapman's performance last night renewed my hope that he will eventually move into the rotation. It was only three batters, but he flashed being a pitcher that can be effective without relying on a 100+ fastball.
I checked out MLB.com's pitch-by-pitch tracking of Chapman's outing and I was surprised to see that, according to MLB.com, 5 of his 11 pitches were listed as changeups, all sitting at 92-94 mph. Is MLB correct? Price said he was not going to throw his changeup often if at all during games.
So setting aside the question of whether there is any chance that the Reds will move him into the rotation in 2011 for a moment, my question is what would be the best way to make the transition in season? Move him into a longman role for a month or 2? Send him to AAA for a few starts? What is the track record for teams moving a reliever to the rotation mid-season?

Women's swimming: FGCU's Friday meet against FIU canceled due to Sandy
With harsh weather developing on Florida's East Coast due to Hurricane Sandy, the Florida Gulf Coast University women's swimming and diving team's dual meet with FIU scheduled for Friday at 5 p.m. at the FGCU Swim Complex has been canceled.
Some of the weather developing on the East Coast is predicted to hit the Fort Myers area on Friday evening, canceling the meet with no makeup date scheduled. Originally scheduled to be the second meeting between the two teams, FGCU and FIU will square off on Saturday, Jan. 19 in Miami.
The Eagles are coming off a 130-113 victory over ACC foe Miami two weeks ago and are 1-1 in dual meets this season. Since 2007, FGCU is undefeated against FIU (9-0).

Arla Skyr "the messenger" by Wieden & Kennedy London
Agency: Wieden & Kennedy London
Rating: 5.0
By Sara Kimberley, campaignlive.co.uk, Thursday, 05 April 2012 11:55AM
The humorous ad, created by Mother, once again sees Johnny Vegas and Monkey on a hill, having a picnic.
As Vegas struggles to find words to describe how fresh the PG Tips Special Moments range tastes, an exasperated Monkey is whisked away by a swooping eagle and is dropped into its nest, which contains two baby eaglets and the four variants from the range.
After befriending the eaglets, Monkey enjoys his own "special moment" with the baby birds, as he introduces and sings 'The Special Moments range' in unison with the eaglets.
The TV ad will be supported by print and radio, customer marketing and a heavyweight sampling campaign.
Silvia Grattieri, PG Tips brand manager at Unilever UK, commented: "The launch of the Special Moments range from PG Tips is one of the most significant innovations in black tea in recent years.
"The TV advert will help to communicate how the range offers consumers high-quality, fresh-tasting products and greater choice within black tea, to suit different moments and needs throughout the day."
PG Tips launched the original 'The Fresh One' ad campaign in May last year.

NEWBERRY COUNTY — Due to an abundance of caution, the School District of Newberry County has advised they will be closed Tuesday.
Forecasters have stated that the winter weather will begin to affect roads around noon to 2 p.m. Tuesday. According to Superintendent Bennie Bennett, it takes approximately 2.5 hours for buses to run their routes and return to their home schools. In order to get children off buses before the latest projected time of 2 p.m., elementary schools would have to release at 10:30 a.m. and high schools at 11 a.m. This would be difficult logistically to accomplish in order to meet safety of the children.
The School District will monitor the weather and road conditions and make decisions about future closures as the storm progresses.

Truly a great vacation-highly recommended!!
Relaxing week by the lake
There is a huge lawn outside where we played lawn games, and we liked the pier for catching sunfish and taking a swim on the warmer days.
The air conditioning unit cooled the bedrooms down nicely. For day trips, we visited the blueberry orchards near the highway, as well as South Haven to fly kites and hang out at the beach.
We highly recommend this property. Clean, well-appointed, and fun for families.

kafor made a significant contribution during his redshirt freshman season in 2013 when he was inserted as the starter at left tackle with five games remaining in the campaign and the Golden Bears made dramatic improvements on the offensive line. Okafor also earned second-team Pac-12 Academic honors as a redshirt freshman. Okafor was moved to right tackle during the spring of 2014 and battled for the starting job with Brian Farley before being granted a medical redshirt and retiring from football prior to the team's 2014 training camp while remaining at Cal as a student.

Tax investigation penalties can range up to 100% on normal investigations and up to 150-200% of the culpable tax, this is what HMRC says is payable as a result of their investigation.
There are several factors that influence the HMRC penalty you could be charged.
The main factor that can influence penalties is an experienced negotiator, one who is fully aware of HMRC procedures and knows exactly how to deal with an investigation into your affairs.
Our team comprises of ex-Inland Revenue staff and ex-Customs and Excise staff who are fully experienced in dealing with HMRC penalties and negotiations.
If you are under investigation and want to reduce your penalties then follow these 5 easy steps…
Step 1 – Click here to submit an on-line enquiry form or pick up the phone and ring 0800 471 4546 to speak to one of our penalties specialists.
Step 2 – Come and meet with your personal investigation specialist who will discuss the best way forward. You need to bring as much paperwork with you so we have the whole picture as to what your case is about.
You will need to sign an HMRC authority form called a 64-8. This is your permission for HMRC to discuss your case and liaise with us.
Step 3 – We will contact HMRC on your behalf to find out why they think you owe tax. This normally takes around 21 days and we will call you back as soon as we hear anything and send you copies of any correspondence with HMRC so you are up to speed.
Step 4 – Once we have a full breakdown of why HMRC think you owe additional tax we can put our arguments to HMRC. We will agree the liabilities due and negotiate fair penalties; these penalties depend on your co-operation through a an investigation. We will always co-operate fully with HMRC, giving you lower penalties!
Step 5 – Once a fair settlement has been agreed you will pay HMRC the tax due (along with interest and penalties) and go on to enjoy your life without the hassle of a HMRC investigation hanging over your shoulders any more.
We have helped ALL of our clients get reduced penalties. None of our clients have ever had the maximum HMRC penalties imposed on them of 100%, the normal charge, and where it involves overseas monies it can be 150-200%.
Sarah from London, a KinsellaTax client, said:
"Just to say a massive thank you to you, and to KinsellaTax for your professional approach and expertise, but more importantly for your ongoing support and reassurance through what has been a long and stressful process.
I felt out of my depth for most of the investigation but your excellent communication throughout has made sure I have known what was happening at every step of the process.
I am certain that the positive outcome of this case was due to your knowledge, experience and expert handling of this particular case, and for that I'm utterly grateful."

UTICA — Residents of the North Fork School district spoke Monday night and the board of education listened. After lengthy discussion regarding the suspension of high school busing, and a 90-minute executive session, the board decided to continue funding transportation.
Last month, the board decided to eliminate high school busing. Since the state has reduced transportation funding, the board made the decision in order to save on driver salaries, fuel costs and bus maintenance. One question was how, if the parents have to be at work early in the morning, the high school students were supposed to get to school. Another concern was the length of the bus ride for elementary and junior high students if the district went to single routing and the dangers of pupils walking half a mile in the dark to a bus stop. People also spoke on behalf of the bus drivers whose hours would be drastically reduced and health insurance coverage in jeopardy. Several of the speakers emphasized the importance of making sure the students get to school; one asked about the feasibility of a pay-to-ride option; and a trio offered to work on fundraising to cover busing costs.
The board responded to the people's questions during the 80-minute public participation portion of the meeting and explained why the cost savings measures are needed and stressed how vital it is that the community vote for the renewal of the one percent earned income tax levy, which will be on the November ballot.
"We've made $4 million in cuts over the last four years," said board president Bernie Snow. "If the levy fails in November, we'll have to make $1.2 million more in cuts."
One man who addressed the gathering said it is important to keep the needs of the students in the forefront of any discussion, and said it would be more productive, rather than blaming the school board, to hold the legislature accountable for not adequatley funding schools.

Research shows that older Americans taking medication for blood pressure and for another chronic disease, mood disorder, have more root decay (Chart 1). (That's why the Partners in Prevention risk assessment form asks about multiple medication use.)
Source: Singh ML, Papas A, Biesbrock A. 2006. Root Caries Increment in A Medication Induced Saliva Hypofunction Population, IADR Abstract 1472
Seventy-eight million Americans have hypertension. In 2012, 48% had this chronic, symptomless condition under control with medication and lifestyle changes. That is up from 29% in 2000, an increase of 66% in patient compliance in twelve years. This increase must rank as one of the most important achievements in public health.
But that means that 52% of Americans aren't managing their high blood pressure. Why?
The remarkable growth in managing hypertension over the past 10 years comes from two directions: a focus from the medical community on compliance and education, and better treatment regimens, and; the new healthcare consumer who how has a much better access to timely information on this disorder and its ramifications. Such improvement in public health has to involve both the provider and the patient.
So what are the lessons from hypertension for the improved management of adult dental decay, a disease which is as common as hypertension and which now has an effective preventive management tool called Prevora?

Findings of Peer Review of Interoperable Smartcard Programs 41 � Fare Categories--Adult, student, senior/disabled/Medicare, and operator employee; and � Other Features--Balance protection, autoload, secure access. 22.214.171.124 Transit Benefits Program Employer and county programs are under consideration. The employer program has been scheduled to become operational in the first quarter of 2005. 184.108.40.206 Loyalty Program A fair fares or best fare loyalty program is under consideration. 3.1.9 Compass The San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG), teamed with eight San Diego-area transit operators, is leading the implementation of a smartcard-based fare payment system for the San Diego Region (SDR). The Compass card will be used as fare payment by bus, light rail, and commuter rail customers on the following systems: � North County Transit District (NCTD); � San Diego Transit Corporation (SDTC); � San Diego Trolley, Inc. (SDTI); � Chula Vista Transit (CVT); � County Transit Systems; � Direct Access to Regional Transit (DART); � National City Transit (NCT); and � MTS Contract Services South Bay. The vision for the project is the result of regional goals that the transit agencies set out to achieve beginning in year 2000, which were to � Simplify the use of transit, � Remove "barriers" to using transit, � Deliver improved passenger amenities, � Unify the procurement of AFC equipment, and � Automate San Diego's existing manual revenue collection processes. After considering various technologies and approaches, SDR agreed that a regional fare pay- ment system based on smartcard technology would allow them to achieve their new directives, including to � Simplify transit fare payment for customers, � Improve and enhance agency revenue data collection, and � Provide regional clearing and settlement. In September 2002, the Metropolitan Transportation Development Board (MTDB) awarded two separate contracts for the AFC system. (Compass management responsibility has since been transferred to SANDAG.) One contract is with GFI Genfare for bus fareboxes and revenue equip- ment. The second is with Cubic Transportation Systems (CTS) for the smartcard and back office systems, including � TVMs; � Handheld card readers (HCRs); � Onboard and platform CIDs; � Ticket office terminals (TOTs);

Despite their ecological, patrimonial and socio-economic importance, cork oak woodlands in south-western Europe are in an endangered situation due to excessive intensification or agricultural abandonment. These semi-natural woodlands are suffering from ageing and senescence as, overall, little natural regeneration is taking place. Thus, the future of a highly valuable natural and cultural resource, a 'unique system ', and one of the most sustainable agroforestry systems ever developed in any extra-tropical region, is in balance. Little replanting, restoration or updating of management techniques have been undertaken, even though production is steadily diminishing.
The general objective of Creoak is to tackle the scientific and management obstacles that are impeding the restoration, natural regeneration and integrated management of European cork oak woodlands, as well as planting in new and appropriate areas. Creoak will combine the expertise of experienced researchers with strong international reputations in their respective fields. Innovative co-operative studies will increase the knowledge of cork oak genetics, root architecture, mycorrhizal symbiosis and ecophysiological responses to stresses, as well as expertise for nursery propagation and field planting of inoculated trees. In addition, ecological/economical modelling will provide tools and information to aid the restoration, protection and extension of cork oak woodlands. The technical advances and knowledge achieved will be published in top scientific journals, and will be made available to the decision-makers and to nursery propagators, foresters and landholders in a synthetic, illustrated handbook designed for broad dissemination.
Progress to Date
At the end of the second reporting period, the consortium achieved 75% of the milestones and deliverables due for this period. The project is pursuing the main objectives with active interactions and interchanges of materials and information. For example, activities in Work Package 1 (Genetic characterisation) are helping in the characterisation of seed provenance field trials reported in Work Package 3. On the other hand, data from Work Package 1 is influencing sampling in Work Package 2 (Stress tolerance and mycorrhization). The latter is providing material for Work Package 3 (Nursery propagation and adaptability to drought) in terms of mycorrhiza inoculum as well as to Work Package 4 activities on "field trials to evaluate nursery and field treatments". The cork oak woodland restoration activities will also obtain materials from Work Package 3 in order to improve the techniques for cork oak systems restoration. In Work Package 5, the overall synthesis is a major objective of the project and will become more important in the third year as new data accumulate.

No, I agree on both points. But when I watched the video from the airplane a few hours after seeing his tweet, with it still ringing in my head, I literally LOLed.
"Rocket landed on droneship, but too hard for survival."
Too hard for survival? By which you really mean 'it went SPLOOIE in an impressive fireball'?
In other news, a small amount of smoke was reported aboard the Hindenburg.
Ditto here. I forget what I had to do to verify, but it was basically the same as if I had called in and wanted to do something with my account. In fact, that's exactly what it was! At the end of entering the card into my iPhone, it prompted me to call the card's service phone number, where I verified my identity, and then they activated Apple Pay. This was in December, well before the rash of articles on this topic, so wasn't just a knee-jerk reaction by my bank.
True, it wasn't as much security as the bank wanted when I wired a down payment for my house; after receiving that fax, they asked no fewer than TEN security questions. I didn't know they had that many pieces of knowledge about me!
The place I used to work used to offer it as a service for $5-10 per SIMM/DIMM. If you can find a local shop that has such a tester, maybe they'd do the same. Otherwise, it's probably not terribly likely to get a low-cost solution, since the volume of such testers is pretty small.
I hadn't heard of this either, but a quick google turned up a description of false parity RAM: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R...
TLazy;DR: To save cost where parity RAM was required by the hardware but not by the operator, modules existed that would calculate the parity bit upon reading the RAM, rather than storing the parity bit. I don't see any evidence that this type of module ever existed for ECC though.
To make sure memory is ECC, it's probably sufficient to count the memory chips on a DIMM. If there are 9 or 18 (or even 36, if it's a particularly large DIMM) identically-marked chips, that's ECC. If there are 4, 8, 16, or 32 chips, then it's probably not. If one of the chips is marked differently than the others, it might be a little more complicated; it might be possible that it's a different memory chip (e.g. if there are 4 x16 memory chips, you'd only need one x8 to get a x72 ECC DIMM, so that last chip would be different). But it's also possible that it's buffered/registered memory, and the different chip is the buffer/register.
And an aside on the topic of buying RAM for yourself:
In general, I'm not a fan of cheaping out on memory. I did computer repair for a while, and it shocked me how many problems were caused by bad RAM - from the obvious ("my computer crashes every time I boot it") to less obvious ("every few days, an application crashes") to the rather insidious ("it was running fine, and now I can't mount my hard drive any more"). It got to the point where, when a computer came in with nonspecific symptoms like that, I'd open up the computer and peek at the RAM chips first. If they had no recognizable manufacturer, they were certainly garbage. If they were recognizable but not top-tier, they probably needed some stress testing on our RAM tester. And if they were the good stuff (Samsung always had my vote there, though it's hard to find because they don't sell directly to consumers), then it was probably something else.
That's also where I learned that things like memtest86 or other software diagnostic tools were basically useless too. Only the absolute worst memory would fail a test, even a looped test run for days. Most bad RAM was marginal - after all, it probably passed some manufacturing tests. We had a rather expensive (~$4k-8k) box that would test memory, doing things like varying the supply voltage or self-heating the RAM. When RAM is installed in your PC, you're still limited by the hardware - i.e. the voltage regulator and the memory controller - which probably keep the memory as close to nominal conditions as possible. Obviously, those machines are rather hard to come by, so you have to make do with software tests instead - but a pass on those just means I can't prove it's bad; it doesn't mean the memory is good. Even if I pass all memory testing, I'll still swap/remove/replace DIMMs in an attempt to find which one is bad, because it's often not obvious.
That description basically sounds like the San Francisco Bay area to me...
If you're interested in riding, find someone else who does it, and they may have helpful tips on where to ride. As you get more experienced, you might find yourself more comfortable sharing the road with cars - but certainly initially, most people prefer to take quiet residential streets or sidewalks. (Personally, I think sidewalks are a terrible idea for bikes - nobody is looking for you, and there are lots of driveways and obstacles. But if that's the only way that people feel safe riding, so be it.)
I used to ride a hybrid in the snow with nearly-bald medium-width tires (28-32 or so, I moved narrower over several years). I usually avoided the 8-mile commute when it was actually snowing and cars were sliding around everywhere, though. Only fell twice on those skinny tires; both were when I tried to make ~90 turns at low speed. At higher speeds, the bike still wants to stay upright, even if there's no traction.
Layers are good, but nothing helps when the temperature is negative (F) and you start breathing hard when you go up a steep hill... I could feel my alveoli freezing with every breath. Never stopped me, though...
Yes. There's a group of people that rides from San Francisco to Google in Mountain View; roughly, it's 42.5 miles, though it's a bit different for each person, because most riders: 1. don't live at the coffee shop(s) where they meet up to start the ride, and 2. don't necessarily work at Google. Once they get to Google, smaller groups branch off in the directions of all the other area tech companies.
Just from hearsay, though; I've never ridden it myself (my commute is a bit tamer), though I've considered trying their route out for fun sometime.
In case the 42.5-mile ride is not to your liking, there are alternate scenic routes that go 48 or 62 miles, at a cost of more hills.
As a follow up, I saw something today after the verdict was announced that quoted his attorney; apparently the pre-trial negotiations didn't offer anything meaningful in terms of a reduced sentence if he were to plead guilty, so they didn't take it.
I found this Ars article rather illuminating:
Specifically, this quote at the end:
Ulbricht received a fair trial. The judge was hard on the defense, but that is largely due to how the defense acted and their strange tactical decisions.
In one of the judge's orders (I believe the one excluding his expert witnesses), the Judge blasted the defense as having made a calculated risk - they didn't want to show their hand so that the prosecution couldn't show evidence to counter the defense strategy, so they waited until the last minute to add their experts to the trial. However, the prosecution saw some of this coming and dropped a ton of evidence on the jury - and the judge saw through the defense's strategy and ruled against them:
If defense counsel truly planned his trial strategy around his ability to bend the rules and examine witnesses outside of the scope of their direct, then he should have had a "Plan B" that included complying with the rules. Defense counsel took a calculated risk.
I'm sure that this will get stuck in appeals for quite a long time. The best thing the defense can do in a situation like this where all the evidence points to guilt is to try and stir up confusion by throwing everything at the wall, and waiting to see what sticks. They only have to get lucky once to get a "not guilty" that will forever absolve Ulbricht, thanks to protection from double jeopardy.
They might not have offered him a deal, or he might've been too stupid to take it. The prosecution apparently accused him of thinking he's too smart to be convicted (speaking of Hans Reiser...), and Ars Technica had an Op-Ed speculating that he might not be taking the advice of his lawyer as much as he should be - or his lawyer isn't doing a good job.
Reading Ars Technica's great day-by-day coverage of the trial, I think the prosecution has probably done a great job of tying up all the evidence in a beautiful package for the jury, while the defense laid out a haphazard tale meant to distract and confuse the jury. This is exactly what happened when I served on a jury a couple years ago - maybe 3 of the people on the jury were somewhat swayed by the defense's arguments, but after a little deliberation, the rest of us convinced those 3 that he was guilty beyond a reasonable doubt.
I think the defense attorney probably did his job here in trying to confuse things - but seeing how the evidence was presented in Ars's articles, I think that he'd have to get really lucky with the jury to get an acquittal at this point.
It just shows that they continue to be behind the times. They may be ready to file for bankruptcy now, but all their customers were ready for them to file for bankruptcy 20 years ago!
It depends a bit on the physical structure of the RAM, but for the most part, the errors fall on logically adjacent rows (i.e. nearby memory addresses) in the RAM. So most of the time, you'll only affect other RAM inside your sandbox, and if you affect something outside the sandbox, it won't be far outside.
I remember encountering a similar failure when designing a system; the particular memory controller and the particular DRAM module we were using both met all applicable specs, but when used together in a particular manner, they would fail miserably. The specific test was to alternate writing all zeros and all ones at different addresses. The RAM controller had an oddity where it would enable the drivers for the RAM data pins a very briefly before the data was known. For that particular data pattern, that meant that it would drive all ones on the data pins to the RAM for less than a nanosecond, before starting to drive all zeros (or the reverse). There's nothing really against that in the spec; the data was all correct for all the relevant setup and hold time requirements relative to the control signals. However, it caused a lot of noise on the ground plane of the DRAM module; we measured as much as 0.75V or so. (That's measuring the ground voltage on one side of the SO-DIMM to the ground voltage on the other side; it's shorted by a mostly-solid layer of copper, but that just wasn't enough to carry all the current with this particular access pattern.) So from the point of view of the RAM chips, it's a little like having your 2.5V supply voltage suddenly drop to 1.75V. It messes up all the reference voltages, so a 1 might be interpreted as a 0, or vice versa. The memory controller manufacturer refused to do anything about it (and it would've taken them many months to redesign and respin the chip anyway), but the RAM module manufacturer was friendly to us, and they beefed up the ground plane so that the noise level was much more manageable.
In any case, I'm sure there are thousands of faults like this that are just waiting to be found and exercised in any given system. No modern computer is 100% tested, they're far too complicated. There will always be some weird sequence of things that could happen and trigger some failure - but hopefully that sequence is so odd, it'll never happen.
Negative. When I served on a jury, the judge *specifically* instructed us that we were not to lend any more credence to the testimony of a police officer than to any other person, solely because he/she was an officer. During jury selection, anybody who either would never trust a cop *or* would *always* trust a cop was dismissed.
That said, we trusted the cops anyway, because their story made a lot more sense than the guy and his wife saying "nuh-uh, that meth wasn't mine, bro," with no other evidence or witnesses to prove it. Meanwhile, the police presented evidence such as the meth pipe, the letters addressed to him that the pipe was sitting on top of in his bedside table, the meth that was in it, and a record from his roommate/alleged dealer/meth cook that he was indebted (the presumption being that it was for meth).
I won't disagree that they are probably trusted by a jury more often than other witnesses for a variety of reasons (a lack of obvious motivation to lie, an appearance of professionalism, a calm demeanor under pressure, etc.), but the court itself does not hold them up as model witnesses.
Money cannot buy love, nor even friendship.

The in-form Newcastle striker is reportedly on the Arsenal manager\'s radar ever since Robin van Persie\'s departure to Manchester United.
Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has reportedly set his sights on the in-form Newcastle United striker Demba Ba. The Senegal striker has a buy-out clause in his contract with the Magpies, and reports are doing the rounds that Wenger is planning a USD 7.5 million pound offer to Ba in January.
Also, the Gunners, who are in search of a quality striker ever since the departure of Robin van Persie to Manchester United, are ready to offer him £60,000 a week plus add-ons. Ba, who has been in great nick since joining Newcastle in 2011 from West Ham on a free after the latter's relegation, scored twice in his club's 3-0 win over Wigan Monday night.
However, despite Wenger's possible approach, Ba, who has a year left on his current deal, is happy at the club and wants to represent it more and more in the time to come.
A source close to the player told the Sun: "Demba wants to be paid what he thinks he deserves but remains committed to the club. He loves it at Newcastle and wants it to be sorted out as soon as possible."

Medical pioneer dies in Canada
Published at 13:09, Friday, 24 February 2012
A MEDICAL pioneer who developed treatments for schizophrenia and Parkinson's disease has died in Canada aged 78.
Dr Gerry Murphy, of Hudson Heights on the outskirts of Montreal, was born on Walney in 1933 and was educated at St Columba's, Barrow Grammar School and Sheffield University.
After gaining a BSc and a Masters degree in biochemistry, he started a new life in Montreal at the age of 24 with just $40 to his name.
He sold ties in a basement and got a discount rate in his lodgings for answering the switchboard.
He then got his break at the Memorial Institute Allan Laboratory at the Royal Victoria Hospital, Montreal – where he met his wife of more than 50 years, Pierrette.
He became associated with the McGill University research team in Montreal and was credited with developing a pioneering oral treatment for Parkinson's Disease in the early 1960s.
He also worked on the use of drugs for the treatment of schizophrenia and was held in high esteem by Canadian physicians he worked with.
His 30-year career also saw important work on anti-rejection drugs for organ transplants. His daughter Jennifer worked with him on the project.
He lived for many years at Green Bay, Nova Scotia, where he enjoyed fishing and writing poetry.
Dr Murphy made several return visits to Walney and used to accompany his brother Joe on walks across the mud flats to Piel Island.

Netgear speeds up its networked storage solution for home users
By Loz Blain
July 10, 2007
July 11, 2007 As laptop and PC ownership rises, households are more and more frequently running wired and wireless networks between several PCs, laptops, printers, and other devices. Bulk broadband downloads and growing amounts of home media production all take up a lot of hard drive space, and external storage devices can be quite fiddly - which is why Network-Attached Storage (NAS) devices are growing in popularity. Netgear's latest NAS device aimed at the home market is the SC101T Storage Central Turbo. It's quicker than its predecessor - operating at fast Gigabit Ethernet transfer speeds - and houses up to two fast 3.5" SATA hard drives of any capacity to provide a networked storage solution for home and small business networks.

Blazing-fast HyperDrive4 solid state disk
By Tim Hanlon
June 3, 2007
June 4, 2007 Got a computing task so brutal that even a roaring Seagate Savvio 15K hard drive won't cut it? The HyperDrive4 is a 5.25" storage device which uses volatile DDR memory instead of a conventional mechanical hard drive. This might sound crazy, but with a variety of supported methods to seamlessly backup and restore the data, you'd be crazy to pass on performance boosts of up to 20,000% (depending on the application of course). Forget about buying additional hardware too - the HyperDrive4 plugs-and-plays with any machine that supports IDE or SATA (that's just about all of them). The catch? A limit of 16GB per HyperDrive4, and a hefty price tag. Read More
