OCZ Technology Vertex 3 Max IOPS 240GB SSD Review
HD Tune Pro
Version and / or Patch Used: 4.00
Developer Homepage: http://www.efdsoftware.com
Product Homepage: http://www.hdtune.com
HD Tune is a Hard Disk utility which has the following functions:
Benchmark: measures the performance
Info: shows detailed information
Health: checks the health status by using SMART
Error Scan: scans the surface for errors
Temperature display
HD Tune Pro gives us accurate read, write and access time results and for the last couple of years has been gaining popularity amongst reviewers. It is now considered a must have application for storage device testing.
I doubt we are going to see much of a difference between the Vertex 3 and Vertex 3 Max IOPS 240GB drives without specifically targeting IOPS performance. Both drives are very fast, almost to the point of having more speed than you can really use. It's kind of like living in the city and driving a Ferrari Enzo. You have the ability to go 200 MPH, but rarely does an occasion happen when it'd be possible.
The Max IOPS model is like putting a better exhaust on the car. Now you have the ability to go 210 MPH, but the same basic issue is still there, you rarely ever get a chance to use it like that. Of course, not being able to use an upgrade has never stopped man from buying and trying to use anything.
In both the read and write speeds across the drive the Vertex 3 Max IOPS matches the Vertex 3. Both drives are insanely fast and offer the best raw read and write performance available today.

No AC/DC In D.C.
Any terrorist would take heart at the ludicrous operations of federal and local authorities in cleaning up after Hurricane Isabel. Four days after the storm, sections of D.C. were still without power. As usual in these events, President Bush left town for his Maryland retreat at Camp David.
Because the area has suffered severe summer storms in the past without this sort of damage, there is a growing suspicion that Pepco Holdings, which supplies power to an estimated 720,000 customers in the D.C. area, has altered the makeup of its grid system, making it more susceptible to damage.
Stress on the nation's electrical grids can be accounted for in part because private companies like Pepco don't want to spend money maintaining the lines and wouldn't dream of footing the bill to put lines underground. In the current atmosphere of deregulation, they build bigger and bigger grids, farther and farther from power generators, in order to maximize their returns. The bigger the grid, the harder (and more expensive) it is to maintain.
Technically there just isn't any reason for the nation's capital to be without electricity. Pepco hired out-of-state repair personnel and equipment, but this is the headquarters for the Army Corps of Engineers, which has vast experience at building and repairing infrastructure, especially in Afghanistan and Iraq. In addition, National Guard units can jump in to help with Signal Corps units.

For a graduate project at George Mason University's National Center for Technology and Law, student Sean Gorman made a map of every business and industrial sector in D.C. with an overlay showing how they were connected in a fiber-optic network. He was told by government officials to shut up about it because of national security. "He should turn it in to his professor, get his gradeand then they both should burn it," former White House cyberterrorism chief Richard Clarke told The Washington Post. (The Post itself didn't print the results of Gorman's research.)
Officials were worried that it might give America's enemies ideas. But with Pepco's feeble efforts to keep the power on in D.C., who needs enemies?

We are one of the most prominent names in the industry for the trading and supplying of the best quality range of medical equipments like BiPap. These are types of ventilators which are highly applicable in all the hospitals. Our clients can avail these ventilators in different grades as per their requirements. We do not make any compromise in terms of quality and so we test these ventilators on different parameters for flawless performance. Our product range includes Respironics bipap, Respironics ST bipap, Resmed Vpap III ST bipap and many more.
BiPAP stands for Bi-level Positive Airway Pressure. It is a breathing apparatus that helps people get more air into their lungs. With the development of BiPAP, air delivered through a mask can be set at one pressure for inhaling and another for exhaling. This makes BiPAP much easier for users to adapt to and also allows neuromuscular disease sufferers to use the device. Because of these dual settings, BiPAP allows people to get more air in and out of the lungs without the natural muscular effort needed to do so. BiPAP has been found to be especially useful for patients with congestive heart failure and lung disorders, especially those that result in above normal levels of carbon dioxide. Sufferers of atelectasis will also benefit from a BiPAP. Atelectasis is when all or part of a lung collapses, and results in the loss of the ability of air sacs at the furthest reaches of the lungs to expand. The BiPAP should be covered by medical insurance. It is also possible to purchase your own machine. If that's not feasible, you also have the option to rent a BiPAP from a respiratory care company through an agreement with which you end up owning the machine.
We also provide Bipap on rental bases. Our product range includes reused or new Resmed ST bipap, Respironics Synchrony bipap, Respironics ST bipap and many more. We have a wide range of fullface mask, simple and gel mask, tube for Bipap. We have own service engineer team. You can contact for repair & service of Bipap.

" Grief is my companion, It takes me by the hand, And walks along beside me in a dark and barren land. How long will this lonesome journey last, How much more can my weary heart bear? Since your death, I've been lost in the fog, Too burdened with sorrow and care. People tell me my sadness will fade, And my tears will reach their end. Grief and I must complete our journey, And then maybe I'll find happiness again. "

Photos like these make me smile. I don't like to see emo/depressing quotes or sayings attached to such beautiful pictures, just my opinion though. :)
" Grief is my companion, It takes me by the hand, And walks along beside me in a dark and barren land. How long will this lonesome journey last, How much more can my weary heart bear? Since your death, I've been lost in the fog, Too burdened with sorrow and care. People tell me my sadness will fade, And my tears will reach their end. Grief and I must complete our journey, And then maybe I'll find happiness again. " Penumbra, mist, photography, black & white.

It trailed off into the fog. Lily knew the choice was hers: to go forward, or turn back. She knew whatever choice she made, her life would never be the same. Nervously she peered out into the misty wastes. She'd always been told there was nothing out there, so thats what she belived. But that was before the stranger came, before he gave her the medallion, before everyone though she was crazy for insisting that he was real, not a figment of her imagination. But things were different now. She knew what she'd seen, what he told her before he left. "Find me." He'd pleaded with her on the edge of the misty bridge. "One day." She'd promised, though she wasn't sure. Now, small pack slung over her shoulder and medallion in hand, she had to make a desicion. Lily watched the cold mist swirl. It smelled like damp earth. "One day." She agreed out loud, and with a small nod to herself, adjusted her pack on her shoulders and left the only place in known existence.

Plank Bridge, Cascille, Northern Ireland. You know all those wibbly-wobbly wooden bridges in movies? I-for some reason-really want to walk over one, like this.

The other day some strange bedfellows and I trekked it up country to Strath Falls in Victoria. Once we left the highway and reached the inland mountains a thick, blanket like white fog seeped up from the valleys covering up the roads and most of the view. As we reached the highest point, looking out over the valley all you could see was the tops of the mountains like something out of King Kong when the reach 'Skull Island'. The mist grew thicker and whiter as we travelled, something like a v...

BLACK & WHITE LANDSCAPES By Pierre Pellegrini - For Pierre Pellegrini, photography is both a wonderful means of communicating and a tool for transmitting emotion. «I'm not sure whether I seek subjects to photograph or the subjects come in search of me. In any case, each time that this happy accident takes place, it results in an image perfectly in harmony with myself and my personality.»

Photo: The Land of Ghosts by Peter Bowers A glance over the shoulder a whisper in the mist, an echo through the trees... Spirit travelers, shamans and tricksters... As surely as his paddle slices the surface, he knows he is not alone... Poem by Wintercove Paddler in the early morning mist. Leslie Frost wilderness area, Ontario, Canada.
There is magic in the feel of a paddle and the movement of a canoe, a magic compounded of distance, adventure, solitude, and peace.

New exhaust technology plant in Romania
The Eberspächer group of companies is investing in a new exhaust technology plant in Romania. The strong growth of the Exhaust Technology Division as a result of newly won orders requires the expansion of production capacity. The new site is being built in Oradea/Bihor on an area of around 11 hectares. Both the Production and Logistics Departments as well as an office complex will be housed in a building around 27,500 square meters in size. Exhaust technology components for European car makers will be produced in Oradea starting in November 2016. Over the course of the year the Esslingen automotive manufacturer will create up to 150 jobs on the site. Annual production capacity of 1.5 million exhaust components as well as up to 5 million bent pipes is planned by 2020. The excellent logistics link with main transport routes to European customers was the decisive factor when it came to locating in Oradea. Via this new site Eberspächer continues to focus its strategic global production in relevant eastern European markets as well as pursue its worldwide growth trajectory.
Eberspaecher EasyFan: new control unit for pre-heaters
Thermal management specialist Eberspaecher has developed a new control unit that makes operating pre-heaters more user-friendly and autonomous. EasyFan automatically controls the valve and fan settings, thus enhancing not only ease of use but also ensuring the optimum efficiency of the pre-heater. As usual, Eberspaecher provides its service partners with vehicle-specific installation kits along with the preprogrammed control unit. The EasyFan vent and fan control unit will be available for retrofitting in a wide range of vehicle makes and models.
Eberspaecher victorious in 'auto motor und sport' readers' poll
For the eleventh time, the readers of 'auto motor und sport' voted for the top brands from the fields of automotive accessories, suppliers and automotive services in the famous 'Best Brand' readers' poll. Those taking part voted the exhaust and thermal management specialists 'Best Brand 2016' in no fewer than two categories. For the first time Eberspaecher won in the "Pre-heater" category, clearly overtaking the previous multiple winner with 76.7% of participants' votes. Once again, Eberspächer scored a hit in the vote for best "Exhaust systems" and, as in previous years, took first place.
Altogether 115,239 readers (notarially audited) took part in the poll, voting for the 'Best Brand' 2016 in 24 categories. The results were published in the current issue (07/16).

Employers can be liable for harassment of workers not only by other workers, but also by customers. But often, managers who'd have no qualms about investigating—or firing—a harassing co-worker are nervous about jeopardizing a customer relationship. Here's some advice for handling this difficult situation:
Legal obligations. Your legal obligation as an employer is no different when customers are involved. Your responsibility is to provide employees with a discrimination-free workplace, not simply to refrain from such behavior yourself. Ultimately, it doesn't matter if the harassment occurs outside the workplace if it happens while the employee is "at work."
So you need to investigate, take remedial action if the charges are justified and make sure there's no retaliation against the harassed employee. As with harassment involving co-workers, your potential liability will depend in part on whether the enterprise knew, or shoul...(register to read more)

RIO DE JANEIRO - When Brazilians were given a chance to describe their skin colour, they came up with 136 shades and variations. The survey was done in 1976 by the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics, and was published again in a 2011 Congressional document titled: The constitutional Commission on Justice and Citizenship.
The list illustrates how Brazilians see themselves, a far more complex colour system than simply black or white. English translations are provided.

Homemade roll cage saves driver's life
Driver walks away from horror smashKAROLINE TUCKEY
Relevant offers
Kapiti drag racer Stu Lawton has walked away from a horror crash virtually unharmed.
The highly modified Mazda SP20 he has built up over six years was written off in the accident at the new Masterton Motorplex on Sunday, but his custom-built roll cage did its job, he said.
''As I launched it went slightly to the middle lane, and then I got off the throttle and as every driver does I got back on it gently.
''I thought I had it saved, and then it went round and I thought I'd just go round with my back into the wall, and then it rolled and I knew I'd gone over the wall.''
The car flipped twice down the track before ricocheting about five metres into the wall and cartwheeling at least another three times on the other side.
The accident unfolded right in front of his partner, who was on the sidelines right where it happened.
''She was about five feet away; she was pretty worried.
''I'm a little bit sore - maybe a broken finger.''
Mr Lawton had been running sub-eight second quarter mile times, reaching about 290kmh by the end of the quarter-mile track.
''It was a test run, I'd been knocked out of the competition, but you're always trying to go better and better each time.
''It was only on the first part of the track, close to 100kmh; it was a real fast 60-foot time, and normally you can gauge your final track speed from that.''
He praised organisers at the Masterton Motorplex, and the safety crew and ambulance staff who were on hand almost immediately.
''It's no-one's fault, the track was good, and the crowd was all back [from the track, behind a fence], so it was pretty safe.
''Climbing the wall like I did - it's not that often it happens, but hey, it's just a racing incident, it just happens.''
Mr Lawton said he built the car's roll cage himself, after researching designs and techniques.
''Two years ago I built a brand new chassis, which was safer than the old one, and made more of a roll cage behind my head.
''It's the rear and front of the car that's taken all the impact, and the roll cage hasn't moved at all. It's done the right job in all the right spots.''
While acknowledging he was lucky to walk away from the accident, Mr Lawton said losing the car was a huge set-back for Lawton Motorsports after years spent fine-tuning and redeveloping the project.
''I was sitting in the ambulance looking out the window at what was left of the car. ''Definitely we will be back, but I don't know how long ... we don't know''.
The Lawton crash was one of three at the Masterton Motorplex over the weekend of racing.
Phil Webber, another Kapiti driver, also wrote off a race car about half an hour later, but ''he got out of the car and waved at the crowd'', Mr Lawton said.
The same day a motorcyclist came off his bike at 240kmh. The Lower Hutt driver walked away with just a broken collarbone.
Video footage of the crash shows that his bike somehow righted itself, and continued down the track passing the finish line before the bike he was racing.

Hi Beverley,
Yes the Qashqai arrived yesterday whilst I was at work. It looks great and drives really well - but I have only seen/driven it in the dark as yet! That is the problem with changing a car at this time of the year- I have to wait for the week-end.
Thanks so much for all your work and patience, especially in the early decision stages when I couldn't sort a colour out! This has been the 4th lease car I have had and you have made the administration for me very easy.
Thanks again,
Janet Wells

If all you had seen of Orlando Arcia was his performance on Tuesday night, you would have no clue that the Brevard County shortstop is known more for his glove than his bat.
The Brewers' fourth-ranked prospect posted a 5-for-5 night in the Manatees' 10-4 win over Lakeland at Space Coast Stadium. He fell a homer shy of the cycle, ending up with two doubles, a triple, five RBIs and two runs scored. He threw in his 13th stolen base of the season.
"He was crushing the ball tonight," Brevard County batting coach Ned Yost IV said. "Every single at-bat, he hit the ball hard, which was great. He's been doing that as of late. He's really been working on just being on time and tonight, it all clicked for him. ... It was good to see. It was a lot of fun to watch."
Arcia set a career high for hits in a game while matching his previous best in RBIs. He also drove in five runs on June 7, 2011, in the Rookie-level Dominican Summer League. Four of his RBIs on Tuesday came with two outs.
"You really know it's going well when that happens," Yost said. "That really demoralizes the other team, when they get you on your heels like that and then it seemed like every time he came around, he was in a big situation and came through for us."
The 19-year-old Venezuelan became the second member of the Manatees to go 5-for-5 this season; as Tyrone Taylor achieved the feat while hitting for the cycle on April 29 in a 20-0 rout of Clearwater.
Against the Flying Tigers, Arcia doubled to left field in the first, singled to left in the third, tripled to right-center in the fourth, doubled to right in the fifth and singled to center in the seventh. Less than halfway through the game, he'd made the cycle a possibility.
"It definitely crossed my mind," Yost said. "In his last at-bat, the first pitch, he was on it. He crushed it but pulled it foul. I mean, it wasn't home-run distance, but if he lets it get maybe just a tick deeper, he keeps it fair and then he's got a chance. But he came through and ended up getting a two-strike single up the middle.
"It's so impressive for a kid that young to be in that situation and not try to hit a home run and get that single up the middle."
Through 71 games, Arcia owns a .278/.338/.381 slash line with 16 doubles, five triples and one homer. He's also collected 29 RBIs while swiping 13 bags in 18 tries.
Yost mentioned Arcia's natural ability when explaining his success, also noting that it doesn't hurt for him to have an older brother playing for the Twins in Oswaldo Arcia. Regardless, the hitting coach had nothing but praise for the player who turned in a perfect night at the plate.
"He's having an excellent year," Yost said. "We always felt like he's a good player. And he's been outstanding defensively. We knew that coming in, that he was going to be that way. And offensively, we weren't expecting a whole lot, but he's really opened our eyes this year and he's really come on strong. He's doing an excellent job.
"Honestly, I'd just like to see him keep doing what he's doing. For him being 19 in this league, like I said, he's opening up a lot of eyes. And if he can continue to do this, he's going to end up having an outstanding year."

Before raising Nezhmetdinov above world champions, take a look at the games he lost. Nezhmetdinov played some spectacular games, but his constant search for brilliant sacrifices meant that he also lost some games in shockingly one-sided blow outs.
Morozevich and ivanchuk play in a similar style to Nezhmetdinov but both play better middle games.
Nezhmetdinov isn't anywhere near Tal.
Perhaps the closest we currently have to Nezhmetdinov today is Timur Gareev. Gareev is capable of playing incredibly beautiful and incredibly naive games.

The results are in and Eaglecrest Ski Area is the runner up in Powder Magazine's Ski Town Throwdown.
When the final round of voting ended on the magazine's Facebook page at 4 p.m., less than a hundred votes separated Juneau's city-owned ski area from Crested Butte of Colorado. The final tally was 17,063 votes for Eaglecrest to 17,156 for Crested Butte.
People from all over North America cast votes in the March Madness-style competition, which started with 64 ski areas pitted in head-to-head matchups against each other.
Eaglecrest Marketing Director Jeffra Clough says there's no shame in finishing second.
"We don't look at this as we lost," she says. "We won so much, and we have so many followers in the community, and across the state, and across the nation. And people now know a little bit more about Eaglecrest. And it's dumping snow! So we're looking forward to an awesome season, and we thank the entire community for your support."
Thanks to all the new snow Juneau has seen in the past 72 hours, Eaglecrest is opening the Ptarmigan Chair this weekend.
The ski area's season kicked off last weekend with just the Porcupine lift open.
Eaglecrest is lowering season pass prices through the weekend to thank all those who supported the ski area during the Ski Town Throwdown. Until Sunday, passes start at $519. A normal adult season pass is $719.

SOUTH AFRICA: New liquor legislation planned for the Cape
The Western Cape Provincial Administration is invoking its rights to draw up new liquor legislation following a Constitution Court ruling last year that national legislation imposed on provincial competencies. An initial policy document has been drawn up, which on one hand wants to make the alcoholic beverage industry more accessible, while imposing severe penalties on those who flout the law.

Based upon the DC Comics super hero, GREEN LANTERN: THE ANIMATED SERIES follows Earth's Green Lantern, Hal Jordan, who is used to being in dangerous situations — but never anything like this! In the farthest reaches of deep space, Hal patrols the Guardian Frontier, where he must face down invasions from the evil Red Lantern Corps., who have sworn to destroy the Green Lanterns and everything they stand for. With ever-emerging galactic threats, Hal is soon joined by an all-new group of heroes on a mission to protect Guardian Space — and the Green Lantern Corps itself!

Your choice of clay and glazes will be dictated by the firing temperature you plan to use, low-fire (cones 06 to 04), mid-range (cone 6), or high fire (cone 10), or somewhere in-between. For clays, you will likely want one that has no grog in it so that you still get a smooth surface after working the clay. If we knew your location, we might be able to help with specific clay bodies . . . some are national in distribution, others are more regional. And, your firing temperature.

Almost 300 cannabis plants were removed from properties last week by Helensville police.
"As the warm days ensue, police are going on the offensive to prevent this drug from making it onto our streets," Helensville Community Constable Brett Mann says.
"Cannabis is a hazard when you are driving, it is a hazard in the workplace and it is a hazard to all sectors of society," he says.
"We want to stop this drug from finding its way into our homes and schools. Cannabis is illegal in New Zealand and police want your help to get rid of it. Any members of the community who see cannabis grown openly or know where we can find it, contact Helensville police on 09 420 8967."
Or call Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
