On July 24, a federal mandate from the United States Department of Labor's wage and hourly division required all employers to raise minimum hourly pay from $5.15 to $5.85.
The increase comes as part of the three-step initiative that will raise the minimum wage to $7.25 by July 2009.
According to the labor department, the wage increases' prime objective is to allow individuals to have a more significant amount of independence based upon a minimum wage salary.
While the wage increase will affect local employees somewhat, it will not have significant repercussions for Carbon County employers, according to economic development director Delynn Fielding.
"With a very low unemployment rate and high wage pressures, a large portion of local employers are paying a significant amount above the minimum wage just to retain their workforce," commented Fielding.
Although the increase may not have serious effects on local employers, recent economic data indicate that, while most county businesses are paying more than the minimum wage, the companies are still falling short of many national averages.
Data results published by the Castle Country business expansion and retention project stipulate that reported wage levels are less than state and national averages for skilled, semi-skilled and entry level employees.
However, the wages are perceived by local employers as equal to or greater than the businesses' national counterparts.
"This may lead to additional problems with recruitment and retention in tightening labor market," said Fielding.
Additionally, 275 of the 392 companies interviewed by the BEAR project as of June reported they provided no benefits to employees as of last month.
It is estimated that, nationally, the minimum wage increase will affect 13 million workers at locations across the United States.
According to the national economic policy institute, the earnings of minimum wage workers are crucial to the financial well-being of the individuals' families.
Evidence from an analysis of the 1996-1997 minimum wage increase determined that the average minimum wage worker brought home more than one-half of his or her family's weekly earnings.
An estimated 1,229,000 single parents with children younger than 18 years of age would benefit from a minimum wage increase to $7.75 by 2009.
Women represent the largest group of beneficiaries from a minimum wage increase, according to officials. About 59 percent of U.S. workers who would benefit from an increase are women. An estimated 12 percent of working women would benefit directly from an increase.
The policy institute further reported that a disproportionate share of minorities would benefit from a minimum wage increase.
African Americans represent 11 percent of the total workforce, but comprise 16 percent of employees affected by an increase.
Similarly, 14 percent of the total workforce is Hispanic. But Hispanics will be 19 percent of workers affected by an increase.
In conclusion, the data provided little evidence that the increase will have no negative effect on employment rates. The minimum wage hike was necessary due to the fact inflation has all but eliminated the benefit of the last increase.
New economic models looking specifically at low-wage labor markets help explain why there is little evidence of job loss associated with minimum wage increases.
The models recognize that employers may be able to absorb some of the expense associated with a wage increase through higher productivity, lower recruiting-training costs, decreased absenteeism and increased worker morale.

"moving slow enough to find a rain jacket tolerable to wear as a wind shirt, I don't get it."If the temps are right you can hike at a good pace with a thin shirt a light shell. Especially handy it the ol' 35*F and windy/rainy.
I don't get the "I don't get it" thread.Different people, priorities, goals, activities, comfort levels, climates, and aesthetic values. What's to get?
@ Aaron- I just don't understand why everybody brings sooo much crap with them when they go backpacking.What specifically do you see on gear lists that people don't need.
Stephen - Thanks for your input on mitts. Seems like you really love them if you have so many pairs. Still not sure about them. I guess some people just really want dry and very warm hands all the time, or maybe have bad circulation, I guess.Nick - You raise valid concerns. I was looking at my geargrams list of my new 1+ season list earlier today, doing some updates and such. I thought about the same things you brought up actually, about a lot of stuff being in my pockets, and that I wear heavy clothing for urban use all the time, etc. Because I tend to nerd out on things, I included in my gear list literally everything I plan on taking down to the last detail, other than consumables and clothing worn, and I am around 3.3kg/7.3lbs. Yet with a bit of "cheating" I could make this into a SUL gear list but stuffing a bunch of stuff in my pockets, or not counting things like my glasses, key chain, wallet items, rain jacket, minor consumables like lip balm and sunblock, etc. After I upgraded my clothing systems last year and did a few FSO weights, I feel much like you, that I am over it and will just stick to BW--but I just have to include everything that is not consumable or clothing. Plus I think it is fun to know exactly how much every little thing I carry weighs.Ken - I am with you on Esbit. I think it's great as a back up or as a firestarter, but for me too many drawbacks for me to use. I am alcohol all the way, even in winter, though I must admit the gas users really shine in the winter.Ike - Oh how delightfully post-modern of you. You will receive the fish as soon as my attorney gets "the" signal, and thank you for your "feedback."EDIT: Yes.

Alcohol stoves... slow, finicky, potentially messy... on paper the advantages can be nice but in practice i found mine annoying in the wind and slow even in good conditions. give me my Optimus Crux any day.. 1 small fuel canister can last me 2+ weeks if needed and in 3mins i have boiling water enough for FBC. can be set up, boiling and taken down quick in any non freezing weather. i'll "spend" a few ounces for convenience.
Hi Cesar,The MLD Mitts get used all year round, the fleece mitts from about 35f-20f, I use he other from 20f to about -10f, anything colder I would rather be in the pub.Cheers,
"Alcohol stoves... slow, finicky, potentially messy... on paper the advantages can be nice but in practice i found mine annoying in the wind and slow even in good conditions. "For one I will say that I mos def get using gas--as I just mentioned, in the winter they really are awesome. I somewhat recently wrote about why I prefer alcohol on my blog, forgive me for quoting myself:(alcohol) is relatively cheap, very easy to find (virtually all gas stations and campgrounds in Sweden/Norway sell it), easy to use, easy to store (in various kinds of recycled plastic bottles), and when it burns it is quiet, nearly odor free, and only leaves small amounts of soot (if any).

12oz bottle of HEET is $5 on Amazon.. 12 boils 4oz canister of isobutane is $4.5-5.50 and is 15+ boils. never leaks, never spills, boils 1.5c of water in 3 minutes. I don't do overnights in winter so the cold disadvantages of canisters don't concern me
Travis and Aaron: Good points.I also tend to count the actual backpack weight last, and it holds the least significance to me. I would much rather carry 30lbs that fells like 20, than 25lbs that feels like 25... If I really want to save weight I could throw it all in a garbage bag and just carry it over one shoulder...This is a big reason I am getting more and more interested in external frames. Especially now that I've realized they don't weigh any more, and sometimes less than internals, and carry more comfortably.And, yes, what's the point of a 5lb base weight if you carry 25lbs worth of food, water, and alcohol. I think a good standard would be to compare the backpack trail head weight for a 3 day trip. I think that would be the most accurate way of comparing yourself to others, and establishing UL, SUL, and XUL definitions.In fact, I would go on to say that the "standard" should be you skin out trail head weight for a 3 day trip minus your urban EDC weight. For arguments sake, we can say 2liters of water would be standard for calculation purposes.

lol why should there be a standard days, water etc? baseweight works well to compare because it is simple and universal. your baseweight is the same regardless of trip length, food preferences, water requirements, base clothing. The point is the compare minus variables. this summer most of my gear was the same when i did a 2 day weekend trip as it was for an 18 day thru-hike

"I don't get it" often just means "I have not experienced that"Quick example " I don't get why some complain about condensation in..." can simply mean " I hike where it is dry and windy or possibly I am much smaller/shorter sweat a lot less than the guys that complain".To address the mitts thing, I use water proof (early Gore-tex) thin mitts by themselves or over my wool gloves because at just over freezing , say between 33 and 38f, rain is very cold . At those temps in the rain it is much more difficult to remain warm than at 25f.(my wool gloves are part of my sleep system so I don't want to get those wet)Wind jackets I don't use because rain is more of a problem for me than wind, so a wind jacket only, does not take care of rain (real rain...) whilst my rain jacket is good enough for me in the wind, however I am aware that others hike where rain is not much of an issue but wind is.I have often addressed this point arguing at different times for the opposite point of view.That is not to be contrarian but just to explain the different situations count for different solutions.For example wood burning stoves.Some don't get why not everybody is using them ( well you can't burn wood if it isn't legal or there is no wood to burn...) others don't get why they are used at all (that is because they hike (or camp) in forested areas where fires are not likely to take hold )My point is that if you have only hiked in a somewhat similar climate (or under particular laws or lack of) all your life you will find it difficult to understand why others do it differently.BTW, in Australia we get 95% Ethanol for about $3.50 a liter . Any supermarket will have that. So it works for me and my 550ml Caldera Cone kit...but no I don't use alcohol to melt snow.
Well played, Cesar.Seriously though, isn't it enough to have found the gear that works perfectly for you? There is no universal truth, and rarely is there common ground. We like what we like, period. Personal aesthetic is very much at the heart of gear selection. Unfortunately, some (not you) never get past the "this works well for me so it must work for everyone" mentality. This intolerance is usually covered up with the inevitable "Hike your own hike", which near as I can tell means, "your way is dumb, but whatever.."That's why I say "Don't get it". You don't have to. Only the person carrying the gear needs to.PS- Windshirts are da bomb
Esbit is a good compact and stable fuel that can be used in many ways. You could use three rocks an an Esbit tablet if you needed to. I use a tiny Ti wing stove, aluminum foil winscreen and a small Ti cup for my most minimal kitchen. The easy way to start Esbit is to put a dab of alcohol gel hand cleaner on it and give it a spark. I carry several tabs in an aluminum can with a screw cap. Keeps the smell at bayEsbit soot comes of easily with a good old steel wool Brillo pad. I carry my pot in a ziplock and clean the soot at home. I don't get why someone hasn't made a better Ti stove to use with Esbit. Esbit has marketed some hard anodized aluminum pot and stove combos, but they walk away from the simplicity of the stamped steel stove design from WW2.

I suppose I am just always curious about how other people do things, and always looking to learn from different perspectives.I always work from the position that I don't know anything, even with things I am familiar with, as it forces me to re-evaluate things.I have a friend who is a hardcore bushcrafter type guy. We will meet up several times a year for excellent overnighters, did one just last month. He has this massive pack, must be like 80 liters, and he takes lots of stuff and lots of weight. Yet we learn from each other, always. His camp coffee is the best I have ever had out in the wild, and the best I can do is tea (which while not bad, is nothing compared to his freshly ground gourmet coffee).The moment you think something is perfect is the moment that learning and experience stops for that thing or idea.:)

Sometimes an "I don't get it" situation can be a challenge to try something new!The wind shirt, for me, was a case in point. I never figured I'd need one until I spend an unusually warm day in Wyoming's Wind Rivers fighting off horseflies and deer flies, which gleefully chomped me through my Permethrin-sprayed shirt as though it were an appetizer. (I since read the fine print on the Permethrin label and discovered it's not supposed to be effective for flies.) What I really wanted after that experience was a suit of medieval armor, but I figured that would be a bit too heavy. I noticed the critters weren't biting through my closer-woven nylon pants, so I decided to try a wind shirt, an item I had always thought was completely unnecessary. I got one, and lo and behold, it kept the flies off--no need for that suit of armor! That was almost 5 years ago. Since then my wind shirt has become the most versatile garment I own, and I'd never, ever go out without it. It's the garment I most often put on during rest stops--in summer it's all I need, although I do take a puffy jacket for cold evenings and mornings. It's what I wear around camp when the temp is in the 60's, a little cool for shirt sleeves but not warm enough for a puffy. When it's cold and windy but not rainy, it's the layer i wear for hiking. Just the wind shirt over a baselayer top (plus lightweight liner gloves and a headband) will take me down to 20*F as long as I'm actively moving. It has to get below 20* before I need even a lightweight mid-layer. Out here in the PNW we occasionally get days that are foggy with a bit of drizzle, not enough for a rain jacket. The wind shirt is just right for those conditions, too. I can say the same thing for trail runners instead of Goretex-lined boots and for trekking poles. I had to go through a kicking-and-screaming protest (mentally, anyway) before I could be persuaded to try either of them. Once I tried them, I was sold and never went back. Of course if you try something and it doesn't work for you or still seems unnecessary, then there's certainly no reason to use it. Not everything works for everybody. I'm that way with a quilt instead of a sleeping bag. HYOH and YMMV and all that!You don't have to spend a bunch of money, either. If you don't own a nylon windbreaker, look for one at a thrift shop. Ditto ski poles if you want to try out trekking poles. Try them on dayhikes or overnighters, where a little extra weight is no big deal. If you like them, then buy the lightweight versions. If you don't, just donate them back to the thrift shop (tax deduction).
It's the new Chaff, kinda.Could have called it the This don't work for me, but you seem OK with it thread.
"That's a great idea for starting the esbit. Plus the hand sanitizer is dual purpose now."Everclear is even more multi-purpose :)I count the hand cleaner as part of my emergency supplies for fire starting. You can set it off with a dead Bic lighter that still has the spark wheel operating or *one* match. The weeniest spark from a firesteel will set it off. Could save your bacon if your hands aren't working well. Alcohol swabs from your first aid kit can work the same way.

Army of Crime (L'armee du crime)
War, Drama
Retraces the epic story of the Parisian Resistance fighters of the FTP-MOI (Francs-tireurs and Partisans - Immigrant Workers). Led by Missak Manouchian, a worker and poet of Armenian origin, the group carried out around 30 operations against the Nazis between August and November 1943. Handed over to the Germans by the French police, 23 members of the Manouchian group were executed, and the Nazis tried to use their foreign roots in a propaganda campaign against immigrants in Paris in Spring 1944. But the propaganda had the opposite effect and the members of the network became martyrs of the Resistance movement.

ANNAPOLIS, Md. (AP) - An audit has found a Maryland commission did not adequately investigate the impact of hospital billing overcharges that were identified through annual reviews.
The state audit released Friday says the Health Services Cost Review Commission didn't determine how long overcharges had been occurring or the extent of prior year overcharges. Auditors examined billing records from four hospitals.
As of June 30, 2011, they found overcharges totaling at least $13.2 million at four hospitals for one procedure at each one, dating as far back as 2001.
The state health department says the commission will require the hospitals to repay overcharges dating back to when the error occurred by adjusting for future rates. The department also says the hospitals will be fined for reporting inaccurate data on their reports to the commission.

Make life with allergic asthma a little easier by avoiding the things you're allergic to. Sound like common sense? Sure it does. Unfortunately, trying to put this advice into practice in your everyday life is not always practical. For example, in order to completely avoid ragweed pollen, you couldn't go outdoors from August to November. There are, however, a few steps you can take that are more realistic and can be very helpful.
To help lessen the allergic reactions that cause your asthma symptoms, familiarize yourself with the following strategies for avoiding allergens from cockroaches, dust mites , mold spores and pet dander .

28 U.S. Code § 414 - Transmittal of books to successors
All government publications and law books furnished to justices, judges, clerks of courts, and United States attorneys of the United States and its territories and possessions, and other officers of the United States or an agency thereof shall be transmitted to their successors in office. All permanent or bound books and publications furnished under this chapter except those books furnished to the Library of Congress for international exchange shall remain the property of the United States and shall be marked plainly, "The Property of the United States".

Historical and Revision Notes
Based on section 90 of title 5, U.S.C., 1940 ed., Executive Departments and Government Officers and Employees, section 530 of title 28, U.S.C., 1940 ed., and section 92 of title 44, U.S.C., 1940 ed., Public Printing and Documents (Aug. 7, 1882, ch. 433, § 1,22 Stat. 336; Jan. 12, 1895, ch. 23, § 74,28 Stat. 620; June 20, 1936, ch. 630, §§ 11, 12,49 Stat. 1552, 1553; May 14, 1940, ch. 189, title IV, 54 Stat. 210; June 28, 1941, ch. 258, title IV, 55 Stat. 301; July 2, 1942, ch. 472, title IV, 56 Stat. 504; June 28, 1943, ch. 173, title II, § 201,57 Stat. 243; June 26, 1944, ch. 277, § 203,58 Stat. 358; May 21, 1945, ch. 129, title IV, 59 Stat. 200; July 5, 1946, ch. 541, title IV, 60 Stat. 480).
Section consolidates section 90 of title 5, U.S.C., 1940 ed., providing that "statutes" shall be delivered to successors of United States attorneys and clerks and provisions of section 530 of title 28, U.S.C., 1940 ed., requiring that all lawbooks for judges and others shall be marked as property of the United States and shall be transmitted to their successors, with section 92 of title 44, U.S.C., 1940 ed., relating to transmittal of "Government publications."
Words "All Government publications and lawbooks" and "furnished under this chapter" were used to cover "all statutes" and "The Federal Reporter and continuations thereto."
Words "justices and judges of the United States" were substituted for "United States judges" in conformity with uniform use of the phrase to describe all members of the Federal judiciary. Similar provisions in sections 334 and 377 of title 28, U.S.C., 1940 ed., were therefore omitted as covered by this revised section.
Other provisions of said section 530 of title 28, U.S.C., 1940 ed., were omitted. (See reviser's note under section 413 of this title.)
The words "permanent or bound" were inserted in the last sentence of the revised section to obviate the wasteful practice under existing law of marking temporary pamphlets.
Changes were made in phraseology.
Senate Revision Amendment
As finally enacted, part of act July 9, 1947, ch. 211, title IV, 61 Stat. 306, which was classified to Title 28, U.S.C., 1946 ed., § 530, became one of the sources of this section and was accordingly included in the schedule of repeals by Senate amendment. See 80th Congress Senate Report No. 1559.
1962—Pub. L. 87–845substituted "furnished to justices, judges, clerks of courts, and United States attorneys of the United States and its territories and possessions, and other officers of the United States or an agency thereof" for "furnished to justices and judges of the United States and of the Territorial Courts, United States attorneys, clerks of courts, and other officers of the United States".
Effective Date of 1962 Amendment
Pub. L. 87–845, § 25, Oct. 18, 1962, 76A Stat. 701, provided that: "This Act [enacting section 4210 of Title 18, Crimes and Criminal Procedure, and section 858 of Title 50, War and National Defense, and amending this section, sections 547, 1404, and 1406 of this title, section 14 ofTitle 18, section 1934 of Title 22, Foreign Relations and Intercourse, section 196 of Title 24, Hospitals and Asylums, and sections 191a and 191b of Title 50] takes effect January 2, 1963. Laws enacted after January 9, 1962, that are inconsistent with this Act, supersede it to the extent of the inconsistency."

That's part of the reason I was able to just quit my much hated and unhealthy wage-slave corporate job at the ripe old age of 38.
Life really doesn't have to be so darned difficult. I'm loving my new-found freedom!
No more suits, no more commutes, no more stress from moronic coworkers & bosses, no more rationing precious little vacation time, and no more waking up at 4 am!
I now work from home full-time and earn a steady income from my websites (this one included).
Besides my own self-reliance & perseverance, I owe a big thank you to the tried and true discovery that is empowering me to live life on MY terms.
They have become like my second family, but I only wish I had found them years earlier than I did.
I sincerely hope this thrifty website helps you to find your way down that road less traveled toward greater independence.
Yours Truly,
Marc A. Smith

I'll bet old frugal & entrepreneurial Benjamin Franklin would have marveled at the power of the internet, especially when compared to the limited colonial reach of his "Poor Richard's Almanac" published from his early printing presses.
I'm using SBI!'s intuitive, highly affordable, all-in-one system of tools and step-by-step instructions to build Frugalicity.com and my other web businesses. I love it! I'd never use anything else.

How To Manage Groups in the Address Book in Windows XP
The Address Book in Windows XP provides a convenient place to store contact information for easy retrieval from programs such as Microsoft Outlook, Microsoft Outlook Express, Microsoft Internet Explorer, Microsoft NetMeeting, and Microsoft Phone System. This article explains how to create and use groups of names in the Address Book.
Open the Address Book
Click Start, point to All Programs, point to Accessories, and then click Address Book.
To open the Address Book from Outlook Express, click Address Book on the Tools menu.
Create a Group in the Address Book
You can create a single group name (or alias) to use when sending a message to several contacts at once. Just create a group name, add individual contacts to the group, and then type the group name in the To box when you're ready to send the message.
To create a group, follow these steps:
1. In the Address Book, select the folder in which you want to create a group.? To view a list of your groups separately from the Address Book listings, make sure that Folders and Groups is selected on the View menu in the Address Book.
NOTE: You can create multiple groups, and contacts can belong to more than one group.
2. Click New on the toolbar, and then click New Group.
3. The Properties dialog box opens. In the Group Name box, type the name of the group.
Add People to a Group in the Address Book
After you find and select an address, it is automatically added to your Address Book. Repeat this process for each addition until your group is defined.
There are several ways to add people to the group:
? To add a person from your Address Book list, click Select Members, and then select a name from the Address Book list.
? To add a person directly to the group without adding the name to your Address Book, type the person's name and e-mail address in the lower half of the Properties dialog box, and then click Add.
? To add a person to both the group and your Address Book, click New Contact, and then enter the appropriate information.
? To use a directory service, click Select Members, and then click Find. Select a directory service from the list at the end of the text box.
Delete a Contact from a Group
1. In your Address Book, double-click the group name.
2. In the Group Members list, click the name that you want to delete.
3. Click Remove, and then click OK.
NOTE: The contact is removed from the group, but the individual entry for the contact remains in your Address Book.
Move a Contact or a Group
1. In the Address Book contact list, select the name of the contact or group that you want to move.
2. Drag the contact or group from the list on the right to the intended group or folder on the left.
NOTE: Contacts dragged to a group are added to the group, leaving duplicates behind in the original folder. However, a group or a contact dragged to a folder is moved, not duplicated.

Our Largest Bodywork Mat - Queen Size Dimensions!
The Thai Massage Mat is a large bodywork mat. We offer 3 types of fill and several color options for the removable cotton twill cover. The cover has a large zipper for easy removal and the cover is washable. The mat comes with standard cotton batting, which has been grown using common agricultural practices and is treated per industry standards for pests. It is not treated with flame retardants. The cotton batting is enclosed in standard linen fabric to contain the cotton batting when the zippered cover is removed.
The optional Organic cotton batting is untreated and virtually odor free. It is enclosed in organic cotton linen. However, in order to keep the cost low, the Cotton Twill cover is NOT organic. It can be washed to remove any pesticide treatments.
An optional poly foam fill is available. This option was created with the traveling massage therapist in mind. While it is not as thick as the cotton batting mats, it is nearly half the weight and easier to transport.
All our mats come standard with a cotton web strap and quick-release buckles. The strap will secure the mat into a roll, "C" fold or "Z" fold. The strap doubles as a shoulder strap so you can carry your mat.

By JOHN SERFUSTINISun Advocate Reporter
The County Fairgrounds Arena looks different without a grandstand. The metal bleachers that used to seat thousands of rodeo and demolition derby fans are gone, as are the roof and all the fixtures.
Now the race is on to get the new grandstand - complete with built-in concession stands and storage - built by next summer's event season.
Last Wednesday, the County Commission named Nelco Construction as the subcontractor for the earthwork and foundation preparation. Meanwhile, a contract for BODEC, Inc. is ready for signing to install a new electrical system. The existing system is 50 years old, so old that spare parts are no longer available for it.
The work is all part of a $3 million facelift at the facilities. In addition to expanding grandstand capacity by 600 to 700 seats, the project also calls for:
- A new restroom between the motocross track and the skating rink;
- A $250,000 audio system;
- New lighting; and
- Demolition and reconstruction of the old maintenance sheds now adjacent to the arena.
The new location for the sheds will be on 2.5 acres in the southwest corner of the park. The main building will be 15,000 square feet, which should be enough to house and maintain all the grounds-keeping equipment.
Funding for the project comes from a $1,337,500 grant and an equal amount as a loan from the Community Impact Board. The local share includes $300,000 from mineral lease money in the Roads and Recreation Special Service District fund and a $25,000 donation from Conoco/Phillips.
To finance the loan, the commission on Wednesday approved the issuance of $1,337,500 in zero interest bonds to be funded by revenues from the one-percent Restaurant Sales Tax. Property and retail sales taxes are not used in construction of the new facilities.
Demolition and removal of the grandstand was free. Price Metal Salvage did the work in exchange for the scrap.
The County is acting as its own general contractor on the project.

Well, I'm here to report that fixing my latency didn't fix ql behaviour. Still same weird things going on.... Oh well.
offtopic: Anywhere I could listen to your music, botz?
Played a few games tonight and observed game behaviour. Maybe it depends on the server, but it was obvious how game struggled to keep up with all the ongoing action when the server was full. People warping all over the place, sluggish feeling, low acc, constant corrections of players position... Broken state.
Next game 4 people disconnected - server finally becomes responsive. My acc was somewhere between 60 - 65.. Then, new people connect and join the battle. Server goes sluggish again and some people start to warp - I struggle to keep my acc above 40 by being more picky with the shots, but that costed me time and I almost lost it at the end. Oh well.
Oh, and during that "broken" state something strange happened. First time I see this.... I fired the rail and got the frag, but the game didn't draw my railbeam on screen. Hm..
Why don't you just roll back to a previous driver for your network adapter? The latest driver isn't always the best. If you're unable to do that, just pick up a pci-e network adapter for less than $30 bones.
As for your DPC spikes, is your system IDLE when it's spiking or under some kind of load? If your system is IDLE when it's spiking, you're likely dealing with a driver issue, unfavorable BIOS setting, attached device, or window's background service.
As I said, I already isolated the source of the spikes. It was MBAM malicious website blocker.
If you can, post your BIOS settings as well and maybe we can troubleshoot even further to resolve your issue.
Also, that sluggish feeling can also be attributed to your 'Video Card Settings.' If you're running an Nvidia video card, open up your video control panel, click on 3d settings, and change your pre-rendered frames to 1 (default is 3). If you're running an AMD/ATI card, you have to download 'RadeonPro' to change your 'Flip-Queue' settings. Change your flip-queue to 1 (default 3). Flip-queue is the same as pre-rendered frames, just goes under a different name w/ AMD. This settings decides how many frames ahead your video card renders before you see it on the screen. For many people, leaving it at default causes a lot of 'responsiveness' issues.
"pre-rendered frames" take only on directX games effect, quake uses opengl sooo it doesnt matter.
so anyone have solved this issue? i mean it doenst affect only NEPHRHIM there are many others.
maybe some of the the officials can bring light in here.
please help id
tags: John Carmack hello, Rocket science, if u read this john please join the quake dev team ql never did surpass alpha stage. mayday
Pre-rendered frames / Flip-Queue does impact open-gl games, such as Quake Live. Countless tests have been performed concluding this, feel free to google away. I've come to the same conclusion as well.

Physiological Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) to Improve Carotid Endarterectomy Outcomes
Recruitment status was Not yet recruiting

- How to Read a Study Record
The carotid arteries are blood vessels in the neck that supply blood to the brain. Carotid stenosis disease is defined as a narrowing of these arteries due to the build up of plaque. The plaque material can also break off and move into the brain. The resulting blockage of blood supply to a portion of the brain is what causes 80% of all strokes. One treatment option is to have surgery on the carotid artery and remove the plaque. This procedure is called a carotid endarterectomy (CEA). There is evidence that proves CEA reduces the risk of stroke. The objective of this research project is to determine who is most likely to benefit from CEA surgery.
Carotid Stenosis
Transient Ischemic Attack
|Study Type:
|Study Design:
|Observational Model: Cohort
Time Perspective: Prospective
- Functional MRI (fMRI) results will be used to calculate the activation-related hemodynamic response function (HRF) in patients undergoing carotid endarterectomy, which will be significantly reduced post-operative at 3 months follow-up. [ Time Frame: Pre-operative, 3 months post-operative ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
- Dynamic intracranial angiography will be correlated with arterial arrival time (AAT) hemodynamic metric calculated from arterial spin labeling (ASL) perfusion MRI. [ Time Frame: Pre-operatively, 3 months post-operatively ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

|Sampling Method:
|Non-Probability Sample
Atherosclerosis is a major risk factor for ischemic cerebrovascular events such as stroke (Bots, Hoes et al. 1997). Carotid endarterectomy (CEA) and carotid stenting (CAS) are common surgical procedures aimed at reducing stroke risk. For individuals with symptomatic stenosis > 70%, CEA has a higher event-free survival compared to medical therapy (Barnett, Taylor et al. 1998) and is considered highly beneficial treatment (Rothwell, Eliasziw et al. 2003). To date, however, few studies have attempted to relate effects of the surgery to changes in brain physiology and function.
Inclusion Criteria:
- Greater than 30 years of age
- Greater than grade 9 education level
- Mini-mental state exam (MMSE) greater than 19 for carotid stenosis patients
Exclusion Criteria:
- History of acute stroke
- History of current psychiatric disorder, such as depression or movement disorder
- Diagnosed Alzheimer's Disease or dementia

MASSENA - Hidden on the calendar between Black Friday and Cyber Monday is another shopping holiday that you may not be quite as familiar with - Small Business Saturday.
In only its third year, Small Business Saturday is a nationwide movement aimed at promoting locally-owned small businesses, a segment of the nations economy that is often overlooked during the holiday shopping season.
According to information provided by a participating business, Small Business Saturday started in 2010 as an American Express promotion that offered its customers $25 credits for shopping at participating small businesses. That promotion has since grown to the point where last year 103 million shoppers supported Small Business Satruday and a Facebook page of the same name has nearly 3 million likes.
While many of the small business owners we spoke with had not heard of the promotion, one of them, John D. Ashley, of Triple A Lumber in Massena said his store and the other two Triple A Lumber stores in Canton and Potsdam are embracing the idea and actively promoting it.
For me small businesses are important because in my opinion small businesses are the backbone of the United States, he said. When you spend your money at a locally and at a small business a lot more of it stays local and is recycles in the community.
To celebrate Small Business Saturday, Mr. Ashley said each of the Triple A Lumber stores will be holding an open house with prize drawings and free refreshments. Among the prizes up for grabs is a $50 gift card, which will be awarded at each store. One lucky winner, will even be headed to the 2013 Daytona 500 with three of their friends.
Each of the stores will be doing something different, he said, adding his location has teamed up with the Kiwanis Club to offer free birdhouse building for children stopping by that day. The Massena location will also be holding a 50/50 drawing to benefit Habitat for Humanity.
We really want to focus peoples attention on small businesses, he said, adding that all throughout the holiday shopping season, Triple A Lumber is even accepting competitors gift cards.
If you have a gift card for Lowes or Home Depot come on in, he said.
Jackie J. Sheehan, who with her husband Phil, owns and operates, Phil & Jackies, a gift shop and screen printing center on Main Street in Massena said she hadnt heard of the promotion, but agreed that supporting small businesses is important for the entire community.
When you support small businesses, she said, youre also indirectly helping to support charities and non-for-profits in the area, as well.
A lot of it is to support the communitys charitable causes, she said. Local businesses contribute to almost every organization.
But thats not all, shopping at local businesses gives you a customer experience that she said you wont find at big box stores.
Its a personal connection knowing who you are dealing with and the fact that they are the ones standing behind their products.
Chris J. Smuts, co-owner of Northern Music & Video, Potsdam, agreed.
Thats usually where people are going to get the best sales and service in our opinion.
Mr. Smutz said while his store is open on Black Friday and all throughout the holiday shopping season, Black Friday for a small business is a little bit different.
Our Black Friday isnt like the big boxes, but we usually do see more traffic during the day.
Thomas H. Bronson owns and operates The Cornerstore, a sports novelty shop, that also sells toys, games and apparel, in Potsdam with his daughter Alison.
Last year they got their first taste of Black Friday and indirectly, although they didnt even know it, Small Business Saturday.
I know from being in business last year, Black Friday was kind of a bust in Potsdam, because people all go to the big boxes or the mall, but we did have a really good Saturday.
Mr. Bronson also noted small businesses arent only competing with big box stores, but also the internet.
Our prices are reasonable, as good as youll find on the internet. You dont pay shipping. You dont pay handling and its all hands-on. You get to see what you buy, before you actually buy it.
Jeramy P. Peets, who is one of the co-owners of Peets Jewelers in Massena said hes never heard of Small Business Saturday, but thinks its a great thing.
Its a great idea, he said, Like that ad on the radio says, The people that run the stores are your friends and neighbors and the people they employ are your friends and neighbors.
Whats more, Mr. Peets said the people who own and operate small businesses have the best interests of their customers in mind and not just the bottom line.
We are looking out for you, he said. Our customers are our friends and neighbors.
Laurel Lee Roethel, of Ogdensburg owns and operates River Rat Design, a custom embroidery shop in Ogdensburg.
Small businesses might not have the latest electronic gadgets, but if youre looking for specific items, small businesses can deliver those, she said.
Derek P. Bradley owns Northwoods Furniture on Ford Street in Ogdensburg.
He said he can understand why people shop at big box stores, but thinks its unfortunate that small businesses are overlooked.
I dont think theyre (small businesses) appreciated as much as they used to be, he said. With the economy the way it is, people are trying to save money.
Rick J. Griffith is a co-owner of Cobblestone Gifts, also on Ford Street in Ogdensburg and he said local people supporting local businesses is what keeps them and other small businesses afloat.
Its really important to support small businesses especially for local people, he said. We couldnt afford to stay in business without local people. People figure they have to go to big cities to do their shopping, but you can find many great, unique items local. Were always glad to be able to provide this service, and we appreciate any support we can get.

ANGELICA, NY - Marika Burke is a professional photographer and an animal lover.
Those two worlds collide when she volunteers her time and talent with Joyful Rescues, an animal shelter located in Cuba, N.Y.
"Having pets and wanting to show the love you can have for a pet I think inspired me to do it in photographs to try and get those pets into homes," said Burke, owner of Marika Photography.
When she isn't busy photographing weddings or family sessions, Burke is snapping pictures of animals the shelter is having difficulty placing into good homes.
Sometimes older animals or certain breeds, like pit bulls, don't get adopted as quickly as puppies or kittens.
"It gets them into homes faster, and if we can get them into homes faster we can take more in then move them out. It means saving lives," said volunteer director Joye Turock.
There are a few rules regarding the pet photographs: no cages, wire fences, or stale shelter backgrounds in the pictures. Burke wants potential owners to be able to envision the animals in their own homes or yards.
That's the easy part. Getting the animals to cooperate can sometimes be a challenge.
"When they are rambunctious and full of energy, it's really hard to get them to sit still and get them in the best light," said Burke. "I guess it would be better to photograph them in their own environment, but they don't have their own environment. That's what we want to give to them."

POTSDAM - The start of winter brings the promise of frozen treats with the opening of Chilly Delight, a frozen yogurt shop at 57 Market St.
Owners Timothy A. and Lori K. Dillon used to own Dillons Used Furniture and Antiques at 6540 Route 56, Potsdam, but they closed it down about a month ago to focus on their new venture.
Were getting older, and furniture gets heavy, Mr. Dillon joked.
Frozen yogurt is an increasingly popular alternative to ice cream, Mrs. Dillon said.
Yogurt is a very popular trend. Its better for you, she said.
The shop sells 12 flavors of frozen yogurt, all of them low-fat. Some are unusual flavors like birthday cake, candy bar smash or caramel pretzel, but Mr. Dillon says the best-seller so far is good old-fashioned vanilla.
This yogurt can be adorned with 30 toppings offered, from strawberries to Reeses Pieces. Gummy Bears and M&Ms have proven popular so far, Mr. Dillon said.
The Dillons saw St. lawrence Countys lack of frozen yogurt shops as a business opportunity.
We knew that if we didnt do it somebody would, Mrs. Dillon said.
Opening the shop just before winter allows the Dillons to figure out what is most popular and work out any kinks before the expected warm-weather rush.
Its a good time to start, Mr. Dillon said.
Chilly Delights has two part-time employees in addition to the Dillons, and more will likely be hired for the summer.
The shop opened Friday, and business has been brisk, according to the Dillons. They hope to provide a place for high school students to gather after school.
It gives them a place to go. Theres not much of a hangout place in Potsdam, Mr. Dillon said.
If the store is successful, the Dillons say they will consider opening a second location in a year or two.
Mrs. Dillon will be working at the store evenings and weekends, while not at her full-time job as a secretary at SUNY Potsdam. For Mr. Dillon the store is a full-time job, and so far 14-hour days have not been unusual, he said.
Chilly Delights is open from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m., seven days a week.
