M-Fidelity SA-43 Custom IEM Review: Exception in Transparency
Pros: Transparency, Spaciousness, Coherence, 4 Different Sound Signatures
Cons: Resolution When Switches Off, Long Canal May Be Disturbing, Needs a Powerful Source/Amp
Pros: Transparency, Spaciousness, Coherence, 4 Different Sound Signatures
Cons: Resolution When Switches Off, Long Canal May Be Disturbing, Needs a Powerful Source/Amp
Pros: Coherent, tonally accurate, expansive, coherent staging
Cons: slight lack of treble sparkle
Pros: improvement in fitment and isolation, natural seal resulting in sound improvement
Cons: pricey, takes longer to insert/remove from your ear
Pros: Dynamic, impactful, holographic and expansive stage / BASS / Top-Notch Isolation / Perfect for commuting / Top choice for popular music genres
Cons: Could use more treble extension / Warm sound may not be a good choice if you listen to mostly acoustic music / Non-removable cable
"At long last, I have finally gotten around to writing a review for my Kaiser 10 IEMs. I am sure you all have been slouched with glassy eyes at your keyboard, ear molds in hand, waiting for my comments before choosing your next musical ear plugs. My love for humanity hopes you haven't. And my apologies in advance for the lengthy read. I wrote this in Starbucks with too much coffee in one hand..." --EllisU
" http://www.head-fi.org/forum/thread/524282/review-unique-melody-miracle-6-driver-custom-iem That's my full review. In summary: These are simply the best customs, and possibly the best headphones of any type, that I have ever heard. I prefer it to my JH13pro due to it's better deep bass response and more natural tone. These sound great paired with a simple portable..." --project86
"I wonder why UERM is often disregarded when picking from $1000 range. I'm guessing that it's due to "only" having 3 drivers, versus having 8 drivers per side. I can say with confidence that driver number does not equal sound quality(for the most part). Another reason I see why UERM might not be picked is its sound sig. It's perfectly flat. Personally, I love this. Reference sound with..." --kimvictor
" The JH13 Pro was my first purchase of high-end personal audio equipment so it's difficult for me to provide a fair comparison (prior to purchasing them, I was listening to iPhone earbuds), but I can safely say that I couldn't possibly be happier with my purchase. The process of getting the impressions made was painless (albeit a bit expensive in the San Francisco Bay Area), and..." --WKHarmon
" I orederd a pair of JH 16Pro IEMs in May. It is now June 15th. Since ordering the first pair, I have returned at my cost of $21.15 each time, the IEMs three times. Each time, Caleb Ellis, who manages the department that makes the IEMs, said he could not explain what had happened. The left IEM of the first pair fitted perfectly with the impressions I paid an ..." --rollinoswald
" I've taken down my review of the Merlins and will repost it once I get them back. By now it's been 4 months and I've had them in my posession for no more than two weeks out of those 4 months. Two weeks into the 3-5 week estimated turnaround time for my remolds/fixing and UM have gone back to maintaining radio silence. Not a word, not a single peep, no replies to emails...." --Sorensiim
" The price paid is because I had to do rushed-rush processing. 1964 delivered, with the best customer service imaginable. The Q has great lows, very good mids, but lack a little in the highs. I like heavily colored headphones and I knew the Q was a reference monitor going in...but that didn't keep me from being a bit disappointed by the lack of excitement to their..." --benzoylmethyl
" This is my very first pair of custom IEMs after trying almost all of the high end universal IEMs -- SE530, UE Super Fi 10, Etymotics etc. The sound of these UE11 Pros is superior in every way to all of the universal ones I had, but even more important they stay in my ear and provide a proper seal. Since my ear canals get very narrow, I found it very difficult to get any of my universals to..." --alyanm
"DISCLAIMER This review is based on the demo set at Jaben Singapore, which I have demoed extensively no less than 3 times. Though fit is pretty good, but as perfect fit is not achieved, I shall not be commenting much on the bass of C435. FitEar is a household name in Japan, though they fast gaining popularity in Singapore. TG334 has been a rather big revelation here..." --Joe-Siow

Evaluate Scale-Out NAS Vendors & Products
Weigh the pros and cons of technologies, products and projects you are considering.
Hyper-converged storage systems=Storage + Compute + Networking
Hyper-converged storage systems are preconfigured and integrated clusters of servers that share their internal storage. They boast convenience and flexibility, allowing rapid deployment of applications like databases and virtual desktop infrastructure. Hyper-converged bundles have limitations, however, such as scalability and the fact that they're closed, siloed systems.
Many companies now realize they have an untapped resource in their backup datastores. Backup data is often the most complete collection of corporate data. Backup vendors and others are now developing tools to access and use that data, turning what was once just insurance against disaster into a strategic corporate asset.
Flash storage equals performance, and to squeeze out the ultimate IOPS, it should be installed directly in the server. We describe the alternatives, weighing their effectiveness and making use-case recommendations.Continue Reading

Delivering Windows applications remotely is another area that could use some improvement, especially in today's age of tablets and mobile devices. App transformation takes existing Windows applications and intelligently delivers them to the target device, similar to how responsive web design principles package web pages differently depending on whether the client is a traditional PC, tablet or smartphone.

Ebola Tracking and Zombie Stars: 4 Cool Ways Government is Embracing Social Media
Forget the Uncle Sam posters and Smokey the Bear TV spots: today's federal agencies have long shifted citizen and customer engagement efforts to online social media.
Forget the Uncle Sam posters and Smokey the Bear TV spots: today's federal agencies have long shifted citizen and customer engagement efforts to online social media.
The military doesn't have time for contract fees, red tape, or bid protests.
If the goal of the system is to prevent shootings like those at Fort Hood and Washington Navy Yard, the new interface will likely fall short.
The recent debate over VA reform only scratches the surface of a much larger veterans issue - the civil-military divide.
Two years after the launch of the Obama Administration's Digital Government Strategy, federal leaders still give their agencies an average C+ on digital services. How can agencies make the grade? Read the full GBC survey and report.
Federal agencies have tough decisions to make as they move past the low-hanging fruit and start migrating older and more interconnected systems to the cloud.
Despite a slight decline from FY 2012's 15-year record high, last year's numbers still beg the question: why have government contract award protests nearly doubled over the past decade?
As many of the government's most experienced workers near retirement, the federal government faces looming skills gaps that threaten to affect mission effectiveness. Agencies can look to harness video content management as a means of retaining institutional knowledge and empower employees to share information with and learn from one another.
Mobile initiatives including BYOD and telework are changing the federal technology landscape, and as a result IT managers are being asked to support and manage a broader range of devices than ever before. As agencies look to secure their mobile assets, a holistic approach to mobility management may provide greater control and oversight.
The White House and Congress don't agree on much. But they both support more stringent oversight of those receiving security clearances -- as well as those who process them.

This is the second pair I have bought, because I obviously like the style. I have worn the first pair for work for a couple of years and they appear to be lasting well to me.

Darren from london
Bought these shoes back in September. They look very nice when worn and are comfortable ONCE YOU BREAK THEM IN!! Last week the heel fell off whilst I was at work so I had to travel home with one leg taller than the other. Poor manufacturing. There is no saving the shoe, so I will have to buy another pair. I won't buy another pair of Brogues. Clarks shoes are still very good, however just not this particular pair. Feedback from Clarks: We are very proud of the quality of our products and to ensure this all our new designs and materials are tested before they go on sale. If you are disappointed with any of our products please return to a store with your receipt so a member of staff can investigate.

I like them because they are good for going out to nice places although you always have to keep polishing them which makes it hard for me to keep cleaning them because with me I like shoes that I don't have to keep polishing, but I still wear them and they are great so who ever made them did a good job.

Open Data
Federal gencies are going to be busy in 2014 meeting deadlines for the Obama administration's open data goals of having datasets catalogued and available in extensible, machine-readable formats. By Nov. 30, 2014, agencies are tasked with providing a data inventory as well as a road map for describing and publishing data.
The General Services Administration hosts a repository of how agencies plan to create, describe, and disseminate enterprise data inventories. The government-wide template for getting to the finish line includes a quarterly level of deliverables, which varies slightly from agency to agency. Some agencies have detailed schedules, others list overall goals, and a few appear to be behind the curve – lacking a 2014 action plan.
The final goal is the same for all agencies – a completed inventory of datasets to be delivered to the Office of Management and Budget. Along the way, agencies will be expanding and opening data inventories, working on methodologies to integrate open data goals into the data creation process, and developing metadata standards for agency datasets. The public will be invited to submit feedback on what kind of metadata would help improve access and availability of government data assets.
For examples of some of more well developed 2014 milestone schedules, check out the National Archives and Records Administration, the Department of Agriculture, and the Office of Personnel Management.

In an exclusive interview, Jimaye Sones, who was Defense Information Systems Agency comptroller from 2005 to 2013, says he was reassigned after revealing questionable accounting practices at the agency.
Through computer forensics training and internships, veterans are helping Immigration and Customs Enforcement tackle a backlog in child exploitation cases.
After two months on the job studying DOD's cybersecurity and IT needs, Secretary Ashton Carter is set to unveil a new Pentagon cyber strategy in Silicon Valley.
The failure of massive federal IT projects can usually be traced to poor management. The solution is as multilayered as the projects themselves.

My children and I have been already suffered the consequences of not getting bills paid on time, so how do single parents try to maintain the money she uses when we have already narrowed down our family wants to now family needs. We have not other adult age who can work to assist the family situation so mother's carry the burden again and again. In working with several families in outreach, they are suffer the same problem. Although everyone's situation is different but most of all if cutting cost to where now you can only afford those essential items such as water, power and the house mortgage, it's time to job search and until one is found. This is no time to be picky as many say it's better have a little money than none.

Finnix 93.0 Fresh from Debian Testing
Finnix, a LiveCD Linux distro for system administrators, is available in version 93.0.
Originally thought a maintenance release after the last update in December 2008, Finnix 93.0 nevertheless provides significant enhancements. The distro is based on the Debian Testing branch and thus brings with it the branch's software status as of August 8.
Finnix has a command line interface and is otherwise Spartan in that it has no desktop environment, office programs or sound support. The compressed CD images are no more than 130 MBytes.
The Linux kernel version is 2.6.30, based on the Debian Testing kernel 2.6.30-5. Developers upgraded Memtest85+ to 2.11 and removed EVMS (which is now unmaintained upstream) and FTP (it uses LFTP instead). Further details are in the release notes.
Finnix 93.0 downloads are ISO images for x86 and PowerPC processors. The distro also runs as guest on Xen and User Mode Linux (UML) systems.
Debian testing userland, with a 2.6.30 kernelFinnix's userland comes almost completely from Debian testing, but the kernel is usually from unstable (2.6.30-5 in this case). Hope that clears up the confusion.
You mean unstable.No. Linux-2.6.30-5 isn't still in testing. You can only find it in Debian unstable.

The Autopsy Of A Business: Death By Government Regulation
Even though the economy is still in the toilet and California's economy is worse than most, the Obama administration cut the throat of a business that has survived a hundred years and produced 40% of Cali's Oysters with all the emotion of a farmer killing a chicken.
Kevin Lunny's struggle to keep his family's oyster farm running in Point Reyes National Seashore appears to be over, closing out an era of oysterman plying the park's pristine waters and ushering in the nation's newest ocean wilderness.
U.S. Interior Secretary Ken Salazar's announcement Thursday that he was allowing the oyster farm's lease to expire took many by surprise – especially Drakes Bay Oyster Co. owner Lunny – whose family also operates a cattle ranch in the park.
"We expected a different decision. We really thought that there was a right and a wrong here, and we expected the secretary to make the right decision," Lunny said.
Salazar's move keeps intact a Congressional mandate from 1976 that sought to restore Drakes Estero to its natural state, removing the oyster racks and motor boats used to shuttle the shelled delicacies to and from shore. Environmentalists and the National Park Service said the farm disturbed harbor seal pupping, and damaged native plants.
In the end, after millions of dollars spent on studies and years of heated debate, Salazar decided that returning the area to its natural state was more important than allowing a popular local business to continue operating.
Who cares if they've wiped yet another business off the map. No matter how high the taxes get, how odious the regulations become and how far the economy sinks, there will always be large numbers of successful new companies popping up to pay taxes and provide jobs.

this is a beautiful pocket knife! it's not quite as big as i had expected but it has a solid weight to it. the worst thing i can say is that the stars on the screws weren't centered. a minor flaw on a great knife. it is quite sharp but i think i can get it sharper. it's noticeably pricier than most of the knives here but it's worth it for a piece that is as attractive as it is functional. great shipping as always.
Beautiful knife, looks better in person. Came to me in a timely manner, and razor sharp I might add. As always true swords does not disappoint.

Smoke pours from a chimney at a cement plant in Binzhou, China, on Jan. 17, 2013. Scientists from around the world have gathered in Stockholm for a meeting of a U.N. panel on climate change.

A landmark report from the world's top climate scientists this week is likely to say with heightened certainty that humans are behind the planet's rising temperatures, and that surface temperatures are not the only indicators of climate change.
Senior scientist Kevin Trenberth of the National Center for Atmospheric Research in Boulder, Colo., who was a review editor on the report, says other signs that bear witness to changes include shrinking Arctic sea ice, melting Greenland ice, warming oceans (especially the deep ocean) and sea-level rise.

IT industry groups have complex relationships with the federal agencies and lawmakers they often collaborate with
Government Inc.
IAC Facebook
Not all lawmakers are aware of the extensive collaborative efforts between information technology industry groups and government-run higher education institutions.IT industry groups have partnered with government higher learning institutions to jointly develop world-class programs, said Robert Carey, the Navys chief information officer.Carey pointed specifically to the collaboration between IT industry leaders and the Information Resources Management College, which:
In certain situations, such as contentious congressional hearings, the role of an information technology industry group can become an unenviable one being the bearer of bad news. Sometimes an IT industry group delivers hearing testimony that is critical of a federal agency or even Congress itself.There are times when the issues are somewhat unpleasant, said Olga Grkavac, executive vice president of the Information Technology Association of America.Some believe it is somewhat easier for an IT industry organization to play that role because most industry groups are nonprofit, Grkavac said. Thats part of the job, she said. You take the heat. You get abused at times.Thats OK, Grkavac added, as long as the IT group expresses the majority view of its members and does absolutely nothing to compromise its credibility.In this town, thats everything, Grkavac said. You lose your credibility, you lose everything. Mark Tarallo
The government has different expectations for different industry groups. Each group plays a valued and important role. Martha Dorris, General Services Administration and American Council on Technology

Dear colinux community,
I recently finished my first colinux installation yay. I use cygwin multiwindow as xserver on win and I am quite disappointed by its look. The windows seem to come from 20 years in the past with grey boxes, though I have seen screenshots where unix programs really look like their windows versions, like http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Ubuntu_on_Windows_-_Firefox_vs_Firefox.png
Can you tell me what changes I have to make? I use Win XP Pro with the debian image.
Stefan "Bebbo" Franke
Maybe the reason is the window manager you are using. I am using XMING and I am content with the look and feel: X-Windows are all normal Windows windows.

College Football Recruiting: Pittsburgh Panthers Doing An Excellent Job Filling Needs
Paul Chryst may be entering just his second year on the field as the head coach of the Pittsburgh Panthers, but this will be his third, and arguably most critical, recruiting class off the field. So how's the 2014 recruiting class coming along in the historic football mecca of western Pennsylvania? Not bad.
Don't get me wrong, not great, but it's not too bad. They're not going to finish with a top-10 class, or maybe even a top-30 class, but an archaic ranking doesn't reveal the true identity of a class. After all, we know it's not all about the amount of stars behind a players name. If that was the case, Eric Fisher (No. 1 overall draft pick in 2014), Ezekiel Ansah (fifth), Star Lotulelei (14th), Justin Pugh (19th), Bjoern Werner (24th) and Travis Frederick (31st) wouldn't have been first rounders in this most recent NFL Draft, because they had few (if any) stars coming out of high school.
But the Panthers are doing a fantastic job of addressing their primary needs: offensive line and defensive backs.
Many fans expected Chryst to immediately produce All-American offensive linemen left and right, since that was a byproduct of his considerable success while calling the offensive plays at Wisconsin. But he'll be the first one to tell you it takes time to build a truly elite line. Patience is necessary while getting the talent, depth and cohesion you need to develop a front wall like Wisconsin's.
The 2014 group of offensive linemen being assembled is hitting for both depth and talent. Mike Grimm is the headliner of the entire class thus far, and the four-star tackle from Bethel Park, Pa. is choosing the Panthers over a sea of other offers, many from the biggest football programs in the country Grimm certainly looks the part at 6-foot-6, 330 pounds, and could be a heck of a complimentary bookend tackle opposite of incoming mega-recruit, five-star tackle Dorian Johnson. Those two could comfortably lock down the tackle spots for the next few years.
Connor Hayes (Traverse City, Mich.) and Mike Herndon (Staunton, Va.) are both combo guard/tackles. Both have the size (6-foot-4, 280 and 320 pounds, respectively) and feet to play inside or out for the Panthers. You can never have enough versatility on an offensive line, where injuries constantly shake up the rotation, so guys like Hayes and Herndon are always valuable.
Another big need the Panthers had going into this recruiting class was defensive back. Elijah Zeise (Wexford, Pa.) and Jalen Williams (Newburgh, N.Y.) are both big (each are 6-foot 2, 190 pounds) and physical safeties, and both are committed to the Panthers. As we all know, big safeties are all the rage right now, and these two guys can both bring the wood. Fast, strong and instinctive are terms thrown around when discussing Zeise and Williams.
Ideally, the Panthers will snag local star Montae Nicholson from Monroeville, but they'll have their hands full competing against the likes of Southern Cal and Notre Dame for the standout safety. Dravon Henry (Aliquippa, Pa.) is another highly-recognized local safety, and the Panthers made his final four along with Ohio State, Penn State and West Virginia. Either one would be a huge catch for the Panthers.
Avonte Maddox (Detroit, Mich.) and Patrick Amara (Philadelphia, Pa.) are also on board as cornerback/safety hybrid athletes. Both of them are incredibly underrated as both are electrifying playmakers. These two could be the perfect examples of how inaccurate the star system can be many times.
The 14 current commitments to Chryst's class, while strong, is still far from complete. There's still a lot of holes to fill. Another running back will be prioritized moving forward, especially four-star power back Shai McKenzie from nearby Washington, Pa., who's still on the market. McKenzie would be a tremendous fit in Chryst's offense, as would Qadree Ollison (Buffalo, N.Y.), likewise still available.
Also look for the Panthers to focus on landing a big and physical wide receiver (looking at you, Jamal Custis), as well as a thumper at outside linebacker (cough, Melvin Keihn, cough).
We're halfway there until National Signing Day. Something tells me this class will be one to pay attention to throughout this season.

Marina Food Court: Great viewing deck
The best thing about this food court is the great alfresco dining with impressive views that overlook the Marina Bay, a bit of the Marina promenade, the whole of the Esplanade and the grassland next to the East Coast Expressway near the flyover.
It was also a sensational spot to take in a fireworks display which was in preparation for Singapore's National Day on August the 9th. Although it was only a practise run, it was still a spectacular display.
A big thanks goes to imstress for organising this because I wouldn't known that this would be such a great spot to watch the sky show. We were also joined by jenaikes.
Favorite Dish: Char siew are long strips of seasoned boneless pork that are skewered with long forks and placed in a covered oven or over a fire.
The porkis seasoned with a mixture of honey, five-spice powder, fermented tofu, soy sauce, hoisin sauce and rice wine. The seasoning turns the outside layer of meat dark red with a shiny glaze.
This pork is served with white rice and drizzled with dark soy sauce. Absolutely delicious and only S$3.50 for a serve!

Great flavor! I only had the total cereal, so I used 2 cups of it crushed. Also, I substituted pumpkin puree for apple sauce since I didn't have any! They smell delicious! They didn't rise as much as I would have liked, but perhaps it's because of my substitutions.
