The Chinese Nationalist Party (KMT) yesterday announced it would hold a "cross-strait agricultural cooperation" forum in October in Taipei, and that it planned to invite Chen Yunlin (陳雲林), director of China's Taiwan Affairs Office. The forum will be the second meeting between the KMT and the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) following the KMT-CCP economic forum in April. KMT Chinese Affairs Department director Chang Rong-kung (張榮恭) said that the forum would discuss issues such as the challenges facing the agricultural industry from the WTO and cross-strait agricultural cooperation. The Mainland Affairs Council refused to grant Chen an entry visa to attend the economic forum in Taipei last year. The KMT and the CCP then moved the forum to Beijing, where it was held this year. Chang yesterday said the party's think tank would send out an application as soon as possible and called on the government to grant the necessary visas.

Birdhouse is stacked with talent these days. Here's Hawk, Jaws, Raybourn, Dixon, Davis, Hale, Loy, Walker and the rest of the squad. The natural fun-box session at 3:10 is unreal and Ben closes it out with a psycho ender.
Here's one of the heaviest vert sessions to take place in recent memory, including rippers from three generations: Tony Hawk, Bob Burnquist, Rune Glifberg, Lincoln Ueda, Mike Frazier, Chris Russell, and many others.
Vert skating is still some of the heaviest shit you can do on four wheels. Upstarts Jimmy Wilkins, Tom Schaar and Sam Beckett trade walls with legends Rune Glifberg, PLG and Jake Brown. And then there's the dudes who've never worn pads in their lives - Chris Russell gets stuffed then shuts it down!
Skateboarding has always had its share of female rippers, but the new crop of ladies is taking things to the next level. If this doesn't get you hyped then you may as well be dead.

Describe myself! I am knowledgeable on many different subjects. I'm a good man for a good woman and even a good man for a bad woman, although I will not have her in my company for very long. I'm honest… too honest sometimes. "cutting to the chase." I am searching for a woman who doesn't have much money and is wiling to get to know me and I get to know her and we take care of each other. We will talk more on this subject later if you are the person for whom I am seeking. This is based on the fact that as we age we may need someone to assist and will not walk out on us. Please don't misinterpret what I am trying to say; It would be nice if you have money to help with the days and years ahead of us, it's not a must or nothing with me. I could write a very long and exhausting page about myself, however, contact me and we will talk, then you will find out for yourself the kind of man I am. I love kissing soft lips, holding hands and cuddling."It would be wonderful to find the one last great love affair of my life who views love as a treasure, and not just something to do or with a price tag attached. I would love to learn the Spanish language, I'm a good cook and usually prefer to cook my own food. But going out for a romantic dinner is really up to my you.

A heated and historically violent rivalry between local basketball fans got a peculiar twist Tuesday night, when Wando High students said they were beaten because they kneeled into NFL quarterback Tim Tebow's signature praying pose during a game with West Ashley High.
The two teenage fans were punched and kicked -- one to the point of vomiting -- as they walked outside after the game, which ended in a 20-point rout by Wando. Neither required hospitalization.
A mother of one victim thinks West Ashley students felt taunted when Wando fans participated in the act of "Tebowing," in which the participant mimics the Denver Broncos quarterback by dropping to a knee and placing a wrist to the chin. A 17-year-old Wando fan told the police that as he and a friend left the gym and began walking through a breezeway, those West Ashley fans jumped them.
"They were scared for their lives," said Lara Isaac, the 17-year-old's mother. "No was one was manning the exits to make sure this wouldn't happen. The kids who did this apparently knew that."
The incident marked the second consecutive year that the contest has turned violent, raising concerns that security isn't sufficient. In January 2010, a parent was charged with punching a teacher.
Security had been beefed up this time: Seven Charleston Police Department officers and more than 15 administrators were stationed inside the gym.
Jason Sakran, a spokesman for the Charleston County School District, said any surveillance video of the beatings likely wouldn't be released because the case involves juveniles.
"We have numerous athletic events every year and extra supports on hand for large games such as this," he said. "Tuesday night's game was no exception."
Charles Francis, a police spokesman, said the video would likely reveal whether officers took the proper actions.
"Officers did break up a fight after the basketball game," he said. "The (school resource) officer reiterated to me that an officer wouldn't stand by and not do anything if they saw someone being assaulted."
But Isaac said the police presence outside wasn't enough.
Her son was chased into a parking lot by a group of boys, according to a police incident report. He tried to defend himself, but his attackers slammed him to the pavement, kicked and punched him. He came home with a torn shirt, scraped knees and elbows, and a welt on his forehead.
The other boy was punched in the stomach so many times that he began vomiting in the bushes outside the doorway. Isaac said Wando athletic officials came to that boy's aid.
Richard Luden, West Ashley High's athletic director who said he wasn't aware of the fight, said security again will be a focus in the teams' second matchup of the season, scheduled for Jan. 27. But violence shouldn't be a major concern for students and parents, he said.
"I don't know why it rears its head during these basketball games," Luden said. "I felt we did everything on our end of it."

Overall Experience:
My first was not as great as it could have been.
Overall Experience:
I have met a lot of people who have made me enjoy the school more. The campus is very clean. Staff is awesome. The campus has great security.
Off-Campus Dining:
Off campus dining is the best! We just got a Cook-out a block away and its less than $5.00 for a full meal! There is an awesome pizza place right across the street. Everything is within walking or driving distance. I loved getting to go out to eat at Steak and Shake or Olive Garden. Waffle Houses are around every corner as well as Sonic.
Campus Housing:
The best thing about living on campus, is the proximity to class and library. The cost was a little high, but well worth not seeing a single bug the whole year. The atmosphere was very fun for a first year freshman. Being close to your class makes it easier when you have breaks or need to grab food at night. Parking is perfect for those living on campus because you always have a spot. With living on campus comes with its downs though, you aren't aloud to have opposite gender over after hours or cook with a crock-pot. Candles are prohibited. It is an alcohol free campus so for those over the age of 21, they can not drink. Over all living on campus was fun and I enjoyed it very much.
Off-Campus Housing:
I have not lived off campus but I currently have lease for next year off campus. The rates are cheaper than on campus and are still within walking distance to classes and food.
Party Scene:
I'm apart of Greek life and there are not any unless you are personally invited and you have to be about the age of 21 to drink. Unless you know the right people there aren't many parties. Austin Peay is a dry campus and every where else you must be the age of 21 to drink and that rule is strictly enforced.
Campus strictness is very strict but on the wrong people. Campus police are more likely to get onto those who do not cause disturbances than those who do. Housing is a joke. No one is on the same page and they are very hard to communicate with, Once again make sure you go see them!! Police can be hard to deal with if you are not careful. I had a friends car get food thrown on it and we called the police about it and they said sorry about it. Parking tickets are very strict its ridiculous!
Campus Food:
Campus food is amazing, there is a great variety so you do not have to eat the same thing each day. The cafe is not the best on campus but it is all you can eat in one setting. You can use your meals on snacks and drinks. The only downer was not being able to use more than three meals a day. Also the food is over priced. A Lunchable at Walmart is one dollar but on campus is $3.50. The best place is the Zona mexican food, it may cost over a meal but it is well worth it.
Remember to file as soon as possible, and if you have any questions call or go to the office, do not email. When it comes to your money being serious and focus on what needs to be done.
Austin Peay isn't really known for sports. Our teams aren't the best and I don't know anyone that's actually attended the games.
Off-Campus Dining:
I generally leave campus for lunch simply because its usually cheaper and there are way more options.
The financial aid office is pretty great. They'll talk to you and help with whatever they can. Just make sure that you fill out the FASFA on time!
Campus Food:
I honestly don't eat on campus very often. I find myself driving off campus and using my student ID to get discounts instead. It's quite a bit cheaper that way.
Health & Safety:
There are always police patrolling campus. There is a health clinic. I used it once. It is okay.
Basketball is very popular and a lot of students go to those games. Baseball and soccer aren't as popular. Everyone is very negative toward our football team. I like going to the games but we never win so it is kind of depressing.
Greek Life:
I don't know much about it.
Off-Campus Dining:
There are so many nice restuarants around campus. They are close to
They like to talk about how strict they are but I don't think they really own up to it.
Campus Food:
I don't think there is enough variety of places to eat on campus. I find myself so tired of subway and the terrace that I would rather go out and eat off campus. It is almost impossible to eat healthy on this campus. All of the fruits in the cafe are old and disgusting along with the lettuce used for salads. Einsteins is the best place to get anything remotely healthy but you'll run out of plus dollars before midterms if you eat there too much. The Peay Pod and Knight Stand only sell candy. This campus makes sure that Freshman 15 is not a myth.
Campus Housing:
Living on campus has its ups and downs. The dorms are very nice, however they are kind of far from all of the other buildings on campus. We had about 40 fire drills this past year and a handful of them were caused by technical problems which is just redicuolous. The cost of living in these dorms was pretty high.
Campus Food:
I would be a lot happier with more options. Subway is always great, I eat it probably once a day on average. The cafe is good most of the time, but some days everything is disgusting and is a waste of a meal. The terrace is occasionally good, but most of the time is very disappointing.
Campus Housing:
I really enjoyed living on campus this year. I lived in the newest building, built in 2013, so it was very nice compared to some of the other housing buildings. I had my own bathroom to share with my roommate and it was fairly spacious for being a dorm room. Very satisfied.
Off-Campus Housing:
Not many good housing selections near the campus. Madison street is notorious for crime and poverty.
Off-Campus Dining:
There are many good places to eat right off campus.
Party Scene:
There are several good bars that are within walking distance of the campus.

Re: Questions...
1) Does it come with any bloatware apps? e.g. Facebook
2) If so, can they be removed without rooting?
Yes. In my experience (UK SIM-free unlocked).
It's a great phone. No quibbles at all to date.

For album purchases I've switched to using services that offer FLAC or ALAC downloads and these days only use iTunes occasionally to purchase singles that typically are compressed so 256kbps AAC is fine.
Three data is working fine here in rainy Hampshire.
Three's T&Cs are pretty clear on tethering here and in Oz:-
Want to use your data allowance as a personal hotspot?
If you are on The One Plan contract (handset and SIM) we're happy for you to use your data allowance as a personal hotspot (we used to call this tethering). This means you can connect your phone to other devices via USB or WiFi to connect to the internet. If you're not on The One Plan, you can get a Mobile Internet Add-on or a Personal Hotspot Add-on. See page5 on how to get one. If you have a Personal Hotspot Add-on, this will not work in a Feel At Home country.
A VPN and a PayPal account overcomes the problem.
Well, er, yes,
However I was referring to downloads from Qobuz,
And I'd like to think the Audiolab M-DAC is a slightly better performer than the DACs in most CD or Blu Ray players.
The French download store Qobuz has had these on sale for a while. I've tried a couple - on promo for the same price as CD quality - and they sound very nice when fed into the main amp via an Audiolab M-DAC.
How much of that is down to the higher bit-rate and sampling frequency and how much is down to sympathetic remastering of the original recordings I wouldn't like to say.
"Indeed, whilst ChromeOS is obvious competition for Windows"
I think one of us needs to have a good lie down, and I suspect it's not me.
"While Apple's iPhone sales may have passed that 50 per cent milestone in the US, Kantar Worldpanel ComTech's stats show that Cupertino is losing the smartphone war in hefty chunks of the world."
I come in peace - Apple computer and Android phone and tablet user.
In Apple's postion I wouldn't be losing too much sleep over "losing" the smartphone wars. Share isn't everything. The margin on every iPhone sold is fine, thank you, and only Samsung out of the Android camp is making any money. Meanwhile Nokia and RIM's choices have put them on a fast track to oblivion. :(
It's just the same as PCs. Apple's total market share is diddlysquat compared with with the massed rank of Windows OEMs. But who is making the returns?
The "BMW niche strategy" for keeping shareholders happy has a lot going for it. Just ask Ford, GM, FIAT, Renault, and Peugeot-Citroën, all of whom are struggling to make the sums add up in their European operations.
It's more than time that the 13" MacBook Pro moved on from a 1280x800px display.
A significant improvement would make me consider replacing an ageing MacBook.
Agreed about the 1st gen. Tablet S. A very good first effort from Sony and I also use mine every day.
I suspect its sales were impacted by the lack of an oleophobic coating on the screen, which meant the screens of demo units in Currys etc looked greasy and dirty compared with the Samsungs and iPads.
A classic penny-pinching cock-up that I assume Sony will have fixed in the new iteration.
I had a good experience with an Xperia Arc and so, being in the market for a mobile for non-work use, I went for the Xperia P.
The Reg's review is pretty much spot on. It's a sold mid-range phone that improves on the Arc in several areas and I particularly like the understated design.
It's not for those who want to carry their entire video and music collections around with them, but Sony do other Xperias that have SD card slots.
The Xperia P is unspectacular in that it just does what I want it to do without fuss - primarily a data device that can make phone calls. The screen, call quality, build quality etc are fine.
My only gripe is the flimsy microSIM slot cover, which is fiddly. Also battery life wasn't great at first, until I discovered that bluetooth was switched on by default. Replacing the live wallpaper with a static background helped too.
All in all a nice phone.
Strategy analytics "calculate" that 4M Apple TV's are shipped WW in a year. I'll be generous and assume Europe soaks up 30% = 1.2M units per year.
In 2001, the EEA reported there were 151M households in Europe.
Strategy Analytics reckon 7% have Apple TVs = 10.5M households.
Assuming Apple sales are reasonably constant and that no units ever break or are discarded and that only one unit is acquired by each household, then Apple has taken nearly 9 years to build up this share.
Apple TV was launched in March 2007. Erm ....
The "ordinary" Xperia Arc is excellent too. It's the best phone I've owned by a country mile, but is undeservedly in the shadows due to the massive hype surrounding anything marketed by Samsung or HTC.
SE's initial foray into the Android world certainly wasn't a smooth ride for the early adopters, but much the same could be said of Samsung's behaviour too.
For freebie users I can understand the move. But for subscribers a.k.a. your loyal paying customers? Erm, another Netflix disaster. And so soon after the last one.
Allytot plot the lost.
If they had balls they would not be working for the Home Office.
The countdown indicators at major pedestrian crossings in Singapore work well.
I own several Apple products, including a 3GS, and they (mostly) do what I want them to do, which is what it's all about.They deliver value. But I've not been tempted by an iPhone 4, as it's a nice screen that does the same stuff as before. Which is not enough.
I may go for an iPhone 5 or 6 if it delivers a significant improvement on what I have now. But I'm not so married to Apple's ecosystem to not to evaluate the alternatives.
Android is very good, and will get better, but I do question an ecosystem where the proponent charges $0, betting it can maximise subsequent advertising $$$, while the HW manufacturers are reduced to "me too" offerings.
Android strips away their ability to take the initiative and lead the market, as they're always following whatever Google comes up with on the software side of things, just like all their competitors.
Nokia has got it right by stepping out of this zero sum game. Whether their alliance with Microsoft can deliver an ecosystem that is more compelling than Apple's is another question ...
I'm delighted Ubuntu are putting so much sway on a positive user interface. It would be even better if they could make each of their frequent releases compatible with the Ralink wireless chips fitted to many popular netbooks.
Apple is getting increasing attention from competition authorities. If you bar one recompilation tool, then you have to be totally pure and bar the lot, without exception.
I suspect a Reality Inspector has pointed this out to His Steveness and has also mentioned the amount of $$$$ that Adobe could suck out of Apple's coffers if he continues with his one rule for Flash and another for everyone else.
All that money spent on branding, and still people type Vodaphone.
Or use an Airport Express and the Remote app on an iPod Touch. Far cheaper and just as effective.
I have a works-allocated Blackberry sitting in its box at home, whilst the works SIM card is in a nice little Nokia phone that does the job. Hilariously, work didn't include a data contract so the Blackberry - an 8080 or something? - is consigned to the darkness that its rubbish design so thoroughly deserves.
Yes. A dish is just a dish and this one will be pointing in the right direction to pick up FreeSat channels. Suggest you check the FreeSat channel listing though; just because the likes of Five announce an HD channel via Sky that doesn't necessarily mean the channel can be viewed on a FreeSat box, as many are encrypted using the Videogard system.
I use one of these on the road with an iPod Touch. Generally it works well. Thanks for highlighting the settings screen - perhaps I can now change channels to avoid conflicts with The Cloud venues.
Full marks for optimism.
DAB sound quality is knocked sideways by the latest iPlayer radio streams. They demonstrate what the digital dividend ought to be delivering - high quality programming and sound.
On DAB, the mess of nondescript commercial pop channels using an ancient codec at barrel-scraping bit rates = low quality programming and dismal sound quality.
To pretend that the commercial sector is going to start putting out high quality programming with great sound quality necessary to grab the audience away from cozy ol' FM, particularly when their major source of revenue is migrating to the web, is risible.

When you try to create a Windows Vista-based Windows Imaging Format (WIM) build in Microsoft Solution Accelerator for Business Desktop Deployment (BDD), you may receive the following error message:
You cannot create the WIM build.
Error during wizard processing
An unexpected error occurred while processing the wizard results.
Collection was modified; enumeration operation may not execute.
This problem occurs if you have added components such as a hotfix or an update to the WIM image file.
This problem occurs because Windows Vista cannot update the answer file when you add some components to the WIM image file.
Sometimes, a component that you add to the WIM image file may have the same name and version as a component that is already in the file. However, when the VersionScopes attribute of the new component differs from that of the existing component, the Windows System Image Manager Component Platform Interface API (WSIM CPI API) may incorrectly determine that these components do not match. Therefore, the WSIM CPI API cannot update the answer file. Instead, the WSIM CPI API generates an error.
For example, if you add update 933566 to the WIM image file, two IE-InternetExplorer components coexist in the file. These components have similar versions (6.0.6000.16473 and 6.0.6000.20583). However, the components' VersionScopes attributes are different. One is nonSxS, and the other is NonSxS.

What is a home equity loan?
If you have built some solid equity in your home, a home equity loan lets you exchange a part of this equity for cash. A lot of people use this cash loan to make home repairs, upgrades, pay for college tuition and other expenses. It's really up to you.
However you decide to use your home equity money, you can usually deduct the interest. That's a pretty appealing reason to finally buy those big-ticket items you've been wanting. Home equity loans are also a good option if you face high medical bills or some other emergency.
A home equity loan has the same expenses as your mortgage - an application fee, title search, appraisal, attorneys' fees and points (a percentage of the amount you borrow). Home equity lines of credit (HELOCs), on the other hand, may not even have fees at all.
One of the best reasons to get a home equity loan right now is that home equity interest rates for home equity loans are lower than they've been since 2008. Many homeowners are taking advantage of these interest rates now while they're so low. We can help you find the lender you need to get the best rate possible.
- Take advantage of low interest rates.
- Make home improvements that add value to your home
- Get cash for a large purchase
- Pay for college
- Consolidate debt
Home Equity Rates
Loan Amount: $25,000
APR as low as 4.91%

The Domestic Threat
The Fort Dix plotters are convicted.
The Fort Dix plotters were convicted Monday of conspiracy to murder members of the U.S. military, a charge that could send the five Islamists to jail for the rest of their lives.
The jury's verdict is notable because media coverage of the plotters' arrest and trial traveled a familiar arc: After a round of stories noting that a terrorist plot had been rolled up, the media followed up with skepticism and suggestions that the suspects were small-timers or just messing around. The word even went out that, in effect, the government's man on the inside had put them up to it. The implication, as with the Lackawanna Six and Jose Padilla, is always the same: The Bush Administration was advertising phantom threats to justify the trampling of civil liberties and to create a "climate of fear."
Lest we forget, the Fort Dix plotters were finally arrested last year after they moved to buy AK-47s and fully automatic M-16s -- not exactly the stuff of innocent imaginings and idle chatter. Every plotter is an amateur until he pulls off a spectacular attack. This has created a permanent PR problem for the fight against domestic terror plots: If you move too soon, the conventional wisdom comes to doubt that anything serious was averted. But of course, waiting too long means running the risk of another attack on American soil, something we have avoided since 9/11.
The jury found the government had made its case against the Fort Dix crew, with the help of one conspirator who pleaded guilty and cooperated with the prosecution. The other five were not convicted on all counts, but the crimes of which they were convicted are serious enough to remind us that real domestic terror threats exist.

The Spanish love a good food fight, they'll literally shower you in anything they can get their hands on from egg and flour to wine, grapes to wine. Join in the food fights while discovering the culture, paella and history of Spain!
1. La Merengada - Meringue War
Possible the sweetest and stickiest war you'll ever have, the Meringue War is held annually in February on the last Thursday before Lent at a beachside town in Barcelona. Whip up those egg whites and throw on your old clothes; it won't be long before you're a walking talking Pavlova.
2. Batalla del Vino – Wine Battle
Annually on the 29th of June, thousands of Haro locals and the few lucky tourists get the privilege of hiking their way to the top of a mountain before drenching each other in thousands of litres of red wine. Be prepared to walk out a tone of crimson, there is no escaping the vino.
Photograph by Bigsus
3. La Tomatina – Tomato Fight
For one day of the year, the Spanish town of Bunol literally paints the town red with thousands of tomatoes. Join in on the weeklong festival featuring local music, traditional parades and dancing ending with an elaborate show of fireworks the night before the warfare. Then take to the streets and hurl those tomatoes; it's every man for himself.
Photograph by flydime
4. Els Enfarinats - Flour Fight
If you thought that being covered in egg whites and sugar was bad enough, imagine becoming a walking talking ball of dough as you shower each other in flour and eggs. Firecrackers also make a regular appearance creating a spectacular show of sparkling powder.
Photograph by Toshimits
5. La Raima - Grape Throwing Festival
So if throwing tomatoes, flour and meringue at each other wasn't enough, another battle takes place just outside of Valencia. In celebration of the end of the grape harvest season, citizens take part in grape fuelled chaos after 90 tonnes of grapes are piled in the middle of the village square.
See Spain for yourself on the Spanish Spree!

ABILENE — One of the few blemishes on the Highland girls basketball team's outstanding season came in the title game of Highland's tournament in early December when the Lady Hornets lost to Garden City, 31-24.
Highland got a chance Saturday afternoon to avenge that loss in a rematch with Garden City for the Region II-A, Division II championship.
And this time, it was the Lady Kats who were left feeling blue.
Highland (31-4) answered every challenge en route to a 47-29 victory at Abilene Christian University, advancing the Lady Hornets to the Class 1A, Division II state semifinals.
During the Monday night meeting of the Sweetwater ISD (Independent School District) Board of Trustees, a campus report was given on J.P. Cowen Early Childhood Center.
Crystal Meneses, the principal of the school, began the presentation with the assistance of three students from the campus: Ryan Roberson, Rhylie Underwood and Owen Huckabee. They demonstrated to board members the different breathing techniques that are done at the school.

HP deal for EMC 'more than a distinct possibility,' says Raymond James
Noting that shares of both HP (HPQ) and EMC (EMC) have been stagnant, Raymond James analyst Brian Alexander repeated that he believes shareholders of both would earn substantial returns from a deal between the two and that he thinks an HP acquisition of EMC is "more than a distinct possibility." Alexander previously said in a note to investors on June 4 that he believed HP will ultimately buy EMC, including VMware (VMW). Assuming EMC is acquired for $32-$34 at various combinations of debt/stock, accretion for HP ranges from 39%-52%, Alexander calculates. Raymond James has a Market Perform rating on HP, a Strong Buy rating on EMC and an Outperform rating on VMware.
Jefferies sees recent weakness as attractive entry point in PC names
Jefferies analyst James Kisner cut his PC unit expectations for 2015 and 2016, citing recent negative data points including Micron's (MU) commentary and guidance, but added that he believes PC names may be finding a bottom and that the pullback in Western Digital (WDC), Seagate (STX), and HP (HPQ) creates an attractive entry point in all three stocks. Kisner sees the most potential upside in Western Digital, but lowered his price target on its shares to $116, and said HP may have the least potential downside, cutting his price target on the computer maker to $40.50. The firm keeps Buy rating on both HDD makers and on HP.

Micron plunges after Q3 results, guidance impacted by PC headwinds
Shares of PC related memory chip maker Micron Technology (MU) are plunging after reporting third quarter financial results and fourth quarter guidance that missed analyst expectations. WHAT'S NEW: After the close, Micron reported Q3 earnings per share of 54c on revenue of $3.85B, both shy of analyst estimates of 56c and $3.9B, respectively. Citing "near-term headwinds driven primarily by weakness in PC sector," Micron gave a fourth quarter revenue view of $3.45B-$3.7B which was significantly lower than analyst expectations of $4.16B. WHAT'S NOTABLE: On the company's earnings conference call, Micron said, consistent with prior expectations, "We are forecasting DRAM industry supply bit growth in the mid-20s in calendar 2015 and in the low-to-mid 20s in 2016." The company said it sees DRAM gross margins for Q4 down mid-single digits sequentially. Additionally, the chip maker said it sees Q4 DRAM bit growth flat to up low single digits. ANALYST TAKE: On June 22, Micron was downgraded to Sell from Neutral at Goldman Sachs. Goldman analyst Mark Delaney downgraded Micron Technology to Sell saying rising DRAM supply will lower selling prices and contract margins. Delaney expects DRAM prices to drop up to 30% over the next three quarters and cut his price target for shares to $19 from $27. On the same day, JP Morgan lowered its price target on Micron shares to $33 from $37. The firm also lowered its estimates for Micron citing lower than anticipated DRAM pricing in the past three months. The firm, however, kept an Overweight rating on Micron, saying improving demand in other segments like mobile and the company's decision to not hold inventory during Q3 should help offset the DRAM weakness. PRICE ACTION: Shares of Micron are lower by 11.5% in after- hours trading to $21.25. OTHER PC RELATED STOCKS: In after-hours trading, PC related chip makers are also lower, with Intel Corporation (INTC) down 0.9%, NVIDIA (NVDA) lower by 1.1%, and AMD (AMD) down fractionally. Others trading lower include Microsoft (MSFT), SanDisk (SNDK), Hewlett-Packard (HPQ), and Seagate (STX).

1 Candidate Interview Review Back to all InterviewsSort: Popular Date Difficulty
Help Desk Support Analyst Interview
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 days – interviewed at Renner Brown (Edison, NJ) in January 2010.
I found the posting through LinkedIn, located/contacted the interviewing representative for that position prior to forwarding my resume and information. (this way I will only send my resume and information directly to someone who is expecting it and will hopefully review it, as I will be following up withing 24-48 hours.
Scheduled first interview(s) within 24 hours.
initial interview consisted of basic resume review, personality, professionalism, basic knowledge questions to see if I actually could substantiate everything on my resume.
2nd interview on same day with supervisor of recruiting firm, questions are more indepth as to professionalism, knowledge of industry and requirements, handling of situations, general approaches/attitudes, more conceptual. upon leaving this interview, I was informed they would contact my references, (they did, my guess is as soon as I walked out the front door, as I followed up with my references and they had already been contacted) make sure yours are solid and true. within hours I received a call for a phone interview for the hiring manager at the client. We will see how this one goes.

2006 Suzuki Reno Q&A
2006 Suzuki Reno Question: head lights don't turn on?
What could make my head lights not go on but my running lights work and all interior lights work and the turn signals work and so do the brake lights? - Visitor
3 Answers
Answer 3
2006 Suzuki Reno Electrical System Recall 12V397000 NHTSA: Action Number: N/A Service Bulletin Number: 12V397000 Report Date: Aug 14, 2012Component: Electrical SystemPotential Units Affected: 101688Manufacturer: American Suzuki Motor Corp. Summary: Suzuki is recalling certain model year 2004-2006 forenza and model year 2005-2006 reno vehicles manufactured from september 23, 2003, through march 7, 2006. Increased resistance due to poor contact between the terminals of certain wires can generate heat that can melt the splice pack used to connect the power circuit wires for the headlamps. This can result in intermittent or total loss of low/high beam headlamp function. Consequence: If the headlamps fail to function, this will lead to reduced driver visibility, increasing the risk of a crash. Remedy: Suzuki will notify owners, and suzuki dealers will reconnect the affected wires with two heat-shrink crimps, free of charge. The safety recall is expected to begin during september 2012. Owners may contact suzuki at 1-877-697-8985. Notes: Suzuki's recall campaign number is nu. Customers may contact the national highway traffic safety administration's vehicle safety hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (tty: 1-800-424-9153); or go to http://www. Safercar. Gov. - michaelnorris

After a bakery truck carrying a load of military grade battle rifles crashes, NCIS is called in to investigate. With the driver missing and several crates of U.S. Marine body armor found, they presume the truck is involved in the black market sale of military goods. While processing the vests, Abby discovers the entire batch is faulty and life-threatening for its user.
The investigation leads to a manufacturer's representative who admits to a batch of recalled vests, but claims they were all destroyed. They turn to a marine sergeant who lost the use of his legs due to a faulty vest he received a gift from his mother. It was part of a care package shipped overseas by a charity run by a woman who bought the vests from the truck driver without knowing they were faulty.
When the recall paperwork reveals the manufacturer actually profited from the recall, they question the representative again. He confesses to working with a gun show proprietor responsible for trafficking black market equipment and killing the truck driver to tie up loose ends after the crash. The team hunts down the proprietor and a showdown ensues. Bishop takes a bullet just as her shot takes down the proprietor who wore one of her faulty vests as a last resort, while Bishop's fully functioning body armor spares her life.
Meanwhile, McGee helps Delilah come to terms with her own disability and Palmer wrestles with superstitions about his impending adoption.

Stable Kernel 188.8.131.52 Released
The new kernel release includes bugfixes and security updates.
The new release removes two security bugs: one bug affected the driver for Intel's i965G chipset, and the other, the Adaptec Raid driver.
In the case of the Intel driver, an incorrectly implemented buffer gave non-privileged users –access to the Direct Rendering Manager. The patch for the "aacraid" module removes an error in controls for access to the SCSI path via calls to Ioctl.
In addition to this, dozens of patches have been introduced to remove minor bugs. The release does not include any new functions. A list of changes is available in the changelog as usual.
The Stable Team advises all 2.6.22.x users to move to the new kernel version. The complete kernel sources and patches are available as downloads.

The truth about server memory voltage
Higher voltage means lower memory performance, right? Not anymore. On today's DIMMs, more is better.

What specifications should I look at when evaluating the on-board memory in a server for my data center? How important is server memory voltage to performance?
Server memory voltages are falling, but the relationship between voltage and performance is a game of diminishing returns.
In early system designs, lowering the operating voltage improved performance by shrinking the voltage difference that occurred in a logic gate transition. This made the chip operate faster.
Modern standard voltage (SV) memory modules based on Double Data Rate 3 (DDR3) solid state memory operate at 1.5 volts. These memory modules complete 1,866 million transfers per second (MT/s). Low-voltage (LV) DDR3 memory modules operate at about 1.3 volts, which actually reduces memory performance to about 1,600 MT/s. Lower voltage now means the chip operates more slowly.
Server buyers might still want the lower memory voltage because LV memory reduces power and cooling needs when power conservation is allowed. The chips boost operation to 1.5 volts when peak processing is required.
Transfer speeds can fall more when the server configuration increases electrical loading on the memory channel, e.g., more dual in-line memory modules (DIMMs) per channel. This is indirectly related to device voltage. For example, two 1.35-volt DDR3 DIMMs operate well at 1,600 MT/s, but three LV DDR3 DIMMs in the same channel require a slower 1,066 MT/s transfer speed to accommodate the higher electrical loading imposed by the additional DIMM.
Check new server documentation for the relationship between DIMM voltages and channel loading.

Jeff Garrett and Ron Guth write in the Encyclopedia of U.S. and Gold Coins: "This tremendous mintage did little to provide coins for future collectors. Virtually the entire mintage was destroyed in the 1930s, leaving just a few hundred around today for collectors to fight over." Those that do exist were probably all saved by West Coast collectors, or by those who actually ordered them by mail, such as J.M. Clapp, Walter Childs, and others who had done so for many years. The number of examples is unknown, although Dave Bowers estimates as many as 250 pieces might exist today. We feel the real population is probably quite a bit lower, perhaps in the range of 100 to 150 examples.
The present example is a splendid Mint State piece. Both sides exhibit a bold strike with exceptional design details. A trace of orange toning is visible over the clean surfaces. There are few noticeable marks, with those that are present mostly on the design motifs.(Registry values: N7079) (NGC ID# 26GJ, PCGS# 9188)

Wonder if they'd take Rick White. In all seriousness, IMO he'd be a good gamble given the Reds situation. I see basically no way of this happening though. Anyone know what he makes this season?Scott Williamson: Could be Traded
RotoWire.com Staff - RotoWire.com
Tuesday, February 28, 2006
Update: Other teams are interested in Williamson and have been in trade talks with general manager Jim Hendry all winter, the Chicago Sun-Times reports.
Recommendation: Some scouts (not surprisingly given his stuff and his history when healthy) view Williamson as a possible eighth- or ninth-inning reliever. With the Cubs signing Bob Howry and Scott Eyre to handle setup roles for closer Ryan Dempster, Williamson's role in Chicago is undetermined, so he could be moved. Why the Cubs gave all that money to two lesser pitchers when they had Williamson in the fold is another issue, but at this point, Williamson could be traded to a team that needs a setup guy and could see some saves eventually if that team's closer were to falter. At this point, it's just speculation, but he's a nice end-game gamble in NL leagues.

"Just wanted to take a minute and tell you how useful PDF annotator has been for our Tech Support team. We are now able to add detailed instructions for troubleshooting directly on the hydraulic and electrical schematics we send to mechanics in the field. They can then take these instructions with them as they conduct troubleshooting on the unit. This has allowed us to cut down on the number of call backs for additional information and has provided a valuable teaching tool to the mechanics."
