Sean Solomon, MESSENGER Principal Investigator
Carnegie Institution of Washington, Washington
As Principal Investigator for the MErcury Surface, Space ENvironment, GEochemistry, and Ranging (MESSENGER) mission, Sean Solomon heads a multi-institutional consortium of scientists and engineers who operate the small, efficient spacecraft, which launched in 2004 and will reach its target orbit in 2011.
Prior to this January, the only craft sent to Mercury was Mariner 10 in the 1970s, and it imaged less than half of the planet. With a suite of seven miniaturized instruments, MESSENGER will address questions that are key to understanding terrestrial planet evolution. Solomon's particular interests are to learn more about Mercury's bulk composition and what that tells us about planet formation in general; to investigate its volcanic, tectonic, and internal evolution; and to understand how the planet's magnetic field originated and determine the characteristics of Mercury's liquid outer core. Mariner 10 discovered that Mercury has a weak magnetic field, which may arise from an Earth-like electromagnetic dynamo in the planet's outer core. MESSENGER will investigate this question as well as the nature of the planet's thin atmosphere and the composition of the permanently shadowed polar deposits.
Solomon has also been a team member on a variety of other projects, including the Magellan mission to Venus, the Mars Orbiter Laser Altimeter (MOLA) investigation on the Mars Global Surveyor spacecraft, and the Plume-Lithosphere Undersea Mantle Experiment (PLUME) on Earth. The Magellan mission produced global radar image and altimetric maps of the surface of Venus. Data from MOLA have been used to construct precise topographical maps to understand Martian geology, geophysics, and atmospheric circulation. PLUME is a combined land and ocean-bottom seismic experiment to image the mantle beneath the Hawaiian hotspot. Solomon is leading the land section of this project.
Solomon balances his position as director of the Carnegie Institution of Washington's Department of Terrestrial Magnetism with research in planetary geology and geophysics, seismology, marine geophysics, and geodynamics. Prior to accepting his current position, he was a professor of geophysics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology for more than 20 years. He is a member of the National Academy of Sciences, a fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, and a former president of the American Geophysical Union.

Jim Head is the Louis and Elizabeth Scherck Distinguished Professor of Geological Sciences at Brown University. He came to Brown University in 1973, following his work with the NASA Apollo program, during which he analyzed potential landing sites, studied returned lunar samples and data, and provided training for the Apollo astronauts. His current research centers on the study of the processes that form and modify the surfaces, crusts and lithospheres of planets, how these processes vary with time, and how such processes interact to produce the historical record preserved on the planets. Comparative planetology, the themes of planetary evolution, and application of these to the study of early Earth history are also of interest. He has followed up his research on volcanism, tectonism and glaciation with field studies on active volcanoes in Hawaii and at Mount St. Helens, on volcanic deposits on the seafloor with two deep sea submersible dives, and during two field seasons in the Antarctic Dry Valleys. Since 1984, Dr. Head convenes the Vernadsky Institute/Brown University microsymposia, held twice yearly in Moscow and Houston. He has served as an investigator with NASA and Russian Space Missions, such as the Soviet Venera 15/16 and Phobos missions, and the US Magellan (Venus), Galileo (Jupiter), Mars Surveyor, Russian Mars 1996, and Space Shuttle missions. In addition to serving as a co-investigator for the NASA MESSENGER mission to Mercury, he also serves in that role for the Moon Mineralogy Mapper (M3 mission), as well as the European Space Agency's Mars Express Mission.

The Homes of the Pilgrim Fathers in England and America (1620-1685) - Martin S. Briggs. This is a wonderful resource that analyzes the history of the Pilgrim settlers through an understanding of the architectural heritage that binds them to England and Holland, where the exiles sought refuge before they came to the New World. By weaving in the architectural history, the author literally shows us how New England was built. Most of us enjoy visiting old houses and historical sites, and it is in this area that the authors knowledge is most valuable. Analyzing gables, windows, roof shapes and so on, the writer connects the owners and the builders to their places of origin, making graphic comparisons between places in both Old and New England. It appears that the southeastern counties of England, and Essex in particular, were the main source not only of early New England architecture, but of the whole religious movement which led to the original Mayflower expedition and to subsequent migration on a larger scale. Names familiar in New England, as the sites of some of the best surviving seventeenth-century houses (such as Dedham, Wethersfield, and Topsfield), have their counterparts in obscure Essex villages. And, all these villages, as well as more familiar names such as Colchester, Chelmsford, Braintree, and Billericayfound in New England as in Oldwere hot beds of Dissent in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. You will enjoy the excellent drawings and very interesting photographs in this book! The names of influential settlers, or those whose homes still stand, can be found in the original full-name and subject index. An extensive bibliography is also included. (1932, 2000), reprint, paper, index, 276 pp. ISBN: 0788415115

The Daily Agenda for Thursday, April 19
Jim Burroway
April 19th, 2012
Today is Yom Hashoah, the internationally recognized date set aside as the Holocaust Remembrance Day. The date corresponds to the 27th day of Nisan on the Hebrew Calendar to commemorate the 1943 Warsaw ghetto uprising. The United States Holocaust Memorial Museum will host a live webcast of the National Days of Remembrance ceremony in the US Capitol Rotunda in Washington, D.C. this morning at 11 a.m. EDT.
White House LGBT Conference on HIV/AIDS: Atlanta, GA The White House will host the next of its series of conference s on LGBT issues today on the topic of HIV/AIDS. The conference is hosted by the White House Office of Public Engagement and the White House Office of National AIDS Policy in partnership with Morehouse School of Medicine, and takes place today from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. at the Morehouse School of Medicine in Atlanta.
Early Voting Begins on North Carolina's Amendment 1: NC. Early voting begins today in North Carolina's primary, in which the major issue remaining is Amendment 1, which would amend the North Carolina constitution to prohibit same-sex marriage (even though it is already prohibited by law) along with any other state recognition of any sort of relationships, gay or straight, outside of marriage. When the proposed amendment was first placed on the primary ballot, it was feared that an anticipated contested Republican presidential primary coupled with an absence of an urgent reason for Democrats and independents to go to the polls would spell doom for the Tar Heel State's LGBT community. But now that the GOP primary race has effectively ended, prospects for Amendment 1's defeat have brightened considerably. If you live in North Carolina, get yourself and everyone you know to the polls now.
As for everyone else, if you donate now, your gift will be doubled with a matching gift from several leading North Carolina citizens (only one of whom is gay; the rest are straight allies). Please make your donation today to Protect ALL NC Families to defeat Amendment 1.
Pride Celebrations This Weekend: Beaumaris, Wales, UK; Mobile, AL; Phoenix, AZ; Potsdam, Germany and Tallahassee, FL.
Other Events This Weekend: Sunshine Stampede Rodeo, Davie, FL and the ONE National Archives Queer Film Festival, Los Angeles, CA.
AIDS Walks This Weekend: Binghamton, NY and Miami, FL.
Dick Sargent: 1930. His best known role was that of the second Darrin in the 1960s sitcom Bewitched, after having taken over that role in 1969 when Dick York was forced to leave due to ongoing health problems. It was a fortuitous second chance for Sargent: he was the producers' first choice for the role in 1964 but was forced to turn it down because he was under contract with Universal Studios to appear in the short-lived sitcom Broadside, a WWII comedy about four girls on an island with 4,000 sailors. (Hilarity allegedly ensued, but only for one season.) Before he got his second chance at Bewitched, Sargent appeared in several films and television programs which helped pad his resume with a growing list of solid if not particularly memorable roles.
He never really made it onto the A-list, bit he did have a solid run opposite Elizabeth Montgomery as America's favorite put-upon Mortal. And what a strange, gay time he must have had on the set, with openly-flamboyant Paul Lynde as practical-joker Uncle Arthur and the closeted and conflicted Agnes Moorhead as Endora (a character whose style and sarcasm deserves the everlasting homage of drag queens everywhere.) The series ended in 1972 and immediately went into syndication for whole new generations to enjoy. Meanwhile, Sargent kept working in minor roles and voiceovers for commercials and cartoons.
In 1974, he appeared with lesbian Fannie Flagg in the game show "Tattletales," in which Hollywood couples would try to guess each others' answers to embarrassing questions about marriage, sex, or other coupley topics. They were, ostensibly, "dating" for the game show's purposes. Sargent finally came out on National Coming Out Day, October 11, 1991, over concerns about high suicide rates among gay teens. He revealed that when he was a student at Stanford he twice tried to kill himself when he realized he was gay. the following summer, he was Grand Marshall of the Los Angeles Gay Pride parade alongside his former Bewitched co-star and friend, Elizabeth Montgomery. He became involved with the AIDS Project Los Angeles and the American Foundation for AIDS Research. He died in 1994 of prostate cancer.

5 Buy-Rated Dividend Stocks To Check Out: RGR, GOV, GAS, PTR, ORI
While plenty of high-yield opportunities exist, investors must always consider the safety of their dividend and the total return potential of their investment. It is not uncommon for a struggling company to suspend high-yielding dividends and subsequently result in precipitous share price declines.
TheStreet Ratings' stock rating model views dividends favorably, but not so much that other factors are disregarded. Our model gauges the relationship between risk and reward in several ways, including: the pricing drawdown as compared to potential profit volatility, i.e. how much one is willing to risk in order to earn profits?; the level of acceptable volatility for highly performing stocks; the current valuation as compared to projected earnings growth; and the financial strength of the underlying company as compared to its stock's valuation as compared to its stock's performance.
These and many more derived observations are then combined, ranked, weighted, and scenario-tested to create a more complete analysis. The result is a systematic and disciplined method of selecting stocks. As always, stock ratings should not be treated as gospel — rather, use them as a starting point for your own research.
The following pages contain our analysis of 5 stocks with substantial yields, that ultimately, we have rated "Buy."
Sturm Ruger & CompanyDividend Yield: 4.80% Sturm Ruger & Company (NYSE: RGR) shares currently have a dividend yield of 4.80%. Sturm, Ruger & Company, Inc. engages in the design, manufacture, and sale of firearms in the United States. The company offers single-shot, auto loading, bolt-action, and sporting rifles; single-action and double-action revolvers; and rim fire auto loading and center fire auto loading pistols. The company has a P/E ratio of 11.45. The average volume for Sturm Ruger & Company has been 314,600 shares per day over the past 30 days. Sturm Ruger & Company has a market cap of $1.0 billion and is part of the aerospace/defense industry. Shares are up 19% year to date as of the close of trading on Monday. TheStreet Ratings rates Sturm Ruger & Company as a buy. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its robust revenue growth, largely solid financial position with reasonable debt levels by most measures, notable return on equity, expanding profit margins and good cash flow from operations. Although the company may harbor some minor weaknesses, we feel they are unlikely to have a significant impact on results. Highlights from the ratings report include:
- RGR's very impressive revenue growth greatly exceeded the industry average of 5.6%. Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues leaped by 50.1%. Growth in the company's revenue appears to have helped boost the earnings per share.
- RGR has no debt to speak of therefore resulting in a debt-to-equity ratio of zero, which we consider to be a relatively favorable sign. Along with the favorable debt-to-equity ratio, the company maintains an adequate quick ratio of 1.48, which illustrates the ability to avoid short-term cash problems.
- The company's current return on equity greatly increased when compared to its ROE from the same quarter one year prior. This is a signal of significant strength within the corporation. Compared to other companies in the Leisure Equipment & Products industry and the overall market, STURM RUGER & CO INC's return on equity significantly exceeds that of both the industry average and the S&P 500.
- 42.14% is the gross profit margin for STURM RUGER & CO INC which we consider to be strong. It has increased from the same quarter the previous year. Along with this, the net profit margin of 17.99% significantly outperformed against the industry average.
- Net operating cash flow has significantly increased by 151.75% to $39.43 million when compared to the same quarter last year. In addition, STURM RUGER & CO INC has also vastly surpassed the industry average cash flow growth rate of 18.32%.

What I am missing here? Oh, nothing. I mentioned I was testing on my laptop, which has an older version. I also did a quick test on my desktop (remote ssh too slow for X11, so I only tested the starting part), which worked OK and without that message. Sorry for the confusion. Note that all I tested was to address Eric's question about gui_thread.start() from an ipython rc file. That seemed to work. Since a few weeks ago I had the impression that Prabhu and yourself had nailed all remaining problems in gui_thread, I didn't go further. Your more detailed tests today seem to indicate otherwise, though. This is unfortunate, esp. considering that Prabhu and you seem to be the only ones with a good grasp of that code, so I can hardly offer any useful help. Regards, f

A telephone scam is circulating our area. It's dramatic and personal. It is about family, and any of us could easily be a target.
11 News is talking to a man who almost fell victim.
Deon got an alarming phone call from a number he didn't recognize. The caller said there was a bad accident involving a truck, an SUV and a car that happened in downtown Colorado Springs.
"As soon as he said downtown, my heart jumped and I was very upset," Deon said.
Deon's wife drives a 4-door car and was supposed to be headed downtown to a hair appointment. But then there was an interesting twist. The caller's brother was also in the crash. The caller said his brother is a fugitive and was holding Deon's wife hostage.
"He stated if I got some money to his brother, he could get out of town and he could get my wife."
When Deon pressed the caller for answers, it just didn't add up.
"He couldn't tell me the color of the vehicles, he couldn't tell me the name of my wife or anything like that."
Deon hung up and called police. He's hoping others will learn from this and not fall victim.
This scam has been circulating in the Pikes Peak region for the past few weeks. The El Paso County Sheriff's Office issued a warning about this same scam earlier in February.
Colorado Springs police say they have briefed all their officers on this scam. The criminals might know a few simple facts about you, such as your marital status, or what part of town you live in. That's stuff that is easy to find out, and it could draw you in to the story.
If you receive a call like this, call police. Officers can actually verify traffic crashes, even if they are in a different city.

AMD Athlon II X4 620 Quad Core Processor Review
Reviewed by: ajmatson
Reviewed on: September 16, 2009
Price: $99
Anyone who has been following the processor boom since the Consumer Electronics Show last year has seen the obscene number of new processor models that have hit the shelves since then, giving consumers more choices than ever on what they can pick for their needs. Intel and AMD both have released a wide array of designs from dual cores to quad cores and even AMD with its radical triple core design. One processor name that stands out amongst them all is the Athlon series. A little history for you, the first Athlon series processor that AMD debuted was back in June 23, 1999 with the Slot A model, next came the the Socket A models in 2000 that used the Pin-Grid Array design and brought speeds past the 1GHz range and into the 2GHz areas. After some time AMD brought to the table the 64-bit processor with the Athlon64 models in September 2003. These models not only brought 64-bit computing and the break above the 4GB memory limit with 64-bit opperating systems but also AMD's first dual core processor, the Athlon 64 X2 in May 2005. Fast forward to today and we have seen the Athlon series break out with the Athlon II X2 series designed for the mid range consumer who wants a bit of power to play with. Now with the success of the Athlon and Phenom series AMD is releasing the new AMD Athlon II X4 series, which are the first quad core Athlon processors to bear the proud name.
The Athlon II X4 series, like the Athlon II X2 series we looked at in June, is a Socket AM3 processor that supports both AM3 and AM2+ motherboards with DDR2 and DDR3 memory. The Athlon II X4 also only has L1 and L2 cache per core, unlike the Phenom II X4 series that has a shared L3 cache. At launch there will be two models of the Athlon II X4 series, the 620 and the 640; however, today we are going to be looking at the Athlon II X4 620 processor, which is clocked at 2.6GHz and is designed to bring cost efficient quad core processing to the mainstream market.
Closer Look:
Since the processor is so new we received the testing unit in a tray type packaging so there is nothing too spectacular to show for the package. However, the processor resembles the design that we have seen for some time now with AMD's processors. On the bottom of the CPU you have the PGA packaging that has 938 pins. This particular model, the Athlon II X4 620, is clocked at 2.6GHz and has a total L1 cache of 512KB (64K of instruction and 64K of data cache per core) and an L2 cache of 2MB (512KB of data cache per core). The Athlon II X4 series uses an integrated 128-bit wide memory controller with speeds up to 2.0GHz with Dual Dynamic Power Management. It also supports unregistered DIMMs up to PC2-8500 (DDR2-1066MHz) and PC3-10600 (DDR3-1333MHz) for total flexability depending on the motherboard model you choose. Using DDR3 memory, the Athlon II X4 can have a total processor to system bandwidth of up to 37.3GB/s. The Athlon II X4 620 is designed using a 45nm manufacturing process on a die size of 169mm2 and has approximatly 300 million transistors. The maximum TDP of the processor is 95 watts with a voltage range of 0.925v to 1.425v and a maximum operating temperature of 71C degrees.
Now that we have seen what this baby looks like, let's plug it in and fire it up.
Model Number:
|Athlon II X4 620
Clock Frequency:
Max TDP:
95 watts
Cache Size:
|L1 Cache: 64K instruction and 64K data cache per core (512KB total L1 per processor)
L2 Cache: 512KB per core (2MB total L2 per processor)
Process Technology:
45-nanometer SOI (silicon-on-insulator) technology
HyperTransport Technology Links:
One 16-bit/16-bit link @ up to 4.0GHz full duplex (2.0GHz x2)
Integrated 128-bit wide memory controller with speeds: Up to 2.0GHz with Dual Dynamic Power Management
Types of Memory:
support unregistered DIMMs up to PC2-8500 (DDR2-1066MHz) -AND- PC3-10600 (DDR3-1333MHz)
Die Size:
45nm = 169mm2
45nm = ~300 million

- True multi-core processing enables better multitasking so users can run more applications and do more in less time.
- Direct Connect Architecture delivers leading-edge PC system performance.

- HyperTransport™ 3.0 technology provides incredible system agility for improved 3D graphics performance.
- AMD Balanced Smart Cache supports a better multi-tasking and multi-threaded experience.
- AMD Wide Floating Point Accelerator to improve digital media and 3D gaming experiences.

- AMD Virtualization™ with Rapid Virtualization Indexing helps virtualization software to run more securely and efficiently.
- Cool 'n' Quiet™ 3.0 technology enables cooler and quieter platform designs by providing extremely efficient performance and energy usage.
To test how this quad core processor performs I am going to be running a series of scientific and video benchmarks designed to push it to the limits and score it based on the way it performs. To compare the Athlon II X4 620's performance I am going to put it up against some of the current quad cores that are available to show you where it sits amongst the competition. To prevent any variables from interfering with the scores, all hardware will be run at stock speeds, voltages, and latencies unless otherwise stated such as for the overclocking tests.

To overclock the Athlon II X4 620 processor you need to have a good knowledge of overclocking AMD processors. This particular processor is not a "Black Edition" as we have been accustomed to with the majority of Phenom II series processors so the multiplier is locked at 13x. To overclock this processor you really need to push up the reference clock to get the extra speed. With pushing the reference clock higher the HyperTransport Link and memory go up as well since they use the reference clock with multipliers as well. To overclock the processor I started pushing the reference clock up 5MHz at a time until it became unstable. I hit a wall rather early and after doing some research I found the culprit was the HT Link. The Athlon II X4 620 did not do too well with the HT Link much over 2000MHz so I had to drop the multiplier down to 9x to get the HT Link at 1928MHz, which is a bit under the 2000MHz mark so we were good as the reference clock rose. Finally, I was no longer stable over 241MHz on the reference clock at 1.5 volts. However, the temperature I got while overclocking testing was 38C degrees, which is way under the 71C degree thermal limit. Quite cool I must say. Since the reference clock was at 241MHz the memory speed was bumped up to 1928MHz, which was fine because the set of memory I use for the reviews I have been able to get to 2000MHz so I left the memory multiplier alone and used this for my memory speed. The final overclocked setting are 3.133GHz for the Athlon II X4 620 and 1928MHz for the memory, which is approximately a 20% overclock.

The first part of our testing will be the system specific benchmarks.
Let's get started with Apophysis. This program is used primarily to render and generate fractal flame images. We will run this benchmark with the following settings:
- Resolution: 2750x2048
- Quality: 500
- Limit Memory use: 512MB
The measurement used is time to render, in minutes, to complete.
Lower is Better
WinRAR is a tool to archive and compress large files to a manageable size. We will use 100MB , 500MB files and test the time needed to compress these files. Time will be measured in seconds. Additionally I will use the built in benchmark as a comparison.
Lower is Better
Lower is Better
In these scientific benchmarks the Athlon II X4 620 trailed behind the more powerful processors.
Office 2007 Excel Big Number Crunch:This test takes a 6.2MB MIcrosoft Excel speadsheet and performs about 28,000 sets of calculations that many of the most commonly used calculations in Excel. The measure of this test is how long it takes to refresh the sheet.
Lower Is Better
POV Ray 3.7: This program features a built in benchmark that renders an image using Ray Tracing. The latest versions offer support for SMP (Symetric MultiProcessing) enabling the workload to be spread across the cores for a quicker completion.
Higher Is Better
PCMark Vantage is used to measure complete system performance. We will be running a series of tests to gauge performance of each individual CPU to see which CPU, if any, rises above the others.
Again, the more powerful processors with much more cache took over the Athlon II X4.
SiSoft Sandra is a diagnostic utility and synthetic benchmarking program. Sandra allows you to view your hardware at a higher level to be more helpful. For this benchmark, I will be running a broad spectrum of tests to gauge the performance of key functions of the CPUs.
Processor Arithmetic
Multi-Core Efficiency
Memory Bandwidth
Memory Latency
Cache and Memory
File System
Physical Disks
Power Management Efficiency
For SiSoft Sandra the Athlon II X4 was close to the Phenom II X4 processor in many of the runs and even beat out some of the Intel processors in several of the tests.
ScienceMark tests real world performance instead of using synthetic benchmarks. For this test, we ran the benchmark suite and will use the overall score for comparison.
Higher is Better!
CineBench is useful for testing your system, CPU and OpenGL capabilities using the software program CINEMA 4D. We will be using the default tests for this benchmark.
Higher is Better
HD Tune measures disk performance to make comparisons between drives or disk controllers.
Higher is Better
Lower is Better
In Sciencemark the Athlon II X4 came real close to the i5 750 and the i7 920 but fell behind in the remaining tests.
Far Cry 2:
Featuring a new game engine named Dunia, this game looks to be another one to stress your video card. Built especially for Far Cry 2, this engine allows for real time effects and damage. This next generation First Person Shooter comes to us from Ubisoft surprisingly - not from Crytek. The game is set in a war-torn region of Africa where there is a non-existent central government and the chaos that surrounds this type of social environment. If you have seen the movie Blood Diamond, you know the setting. Ubisoft puts the main storyline of the game into focus with these statements: "Caught between two rival factions in war-torn Africa, you are sent to take out "The Jackal," a mysterious character who has rekindled the conflict between the warlords, jeopardizing thousands of lives. In order to fulfill your mission you will have to play the factions against each other, identify and exploit their weaknesses, and neutralize their superior numbers and firepower with surprise, subversion, cunning and, of course, brute force." In this version of the game, you don't have the beautiful water, but instead the beauty and harshness of the African continent to contend with. Most games give you a set area that can be played through, while Ubisoft has given the gamer the equivalent of 50km squared of the vast African continent to explore while in pursuit of your goals. The settings used are just a few steps below the maximum in-game settings and offer a good blend of performance vs. visual quality.
- Direct X 10
- 2xAA
- Game settings to very high
- Vsync Off
While not as fast as the Phenom II X4 955, the Athlon II X4 620 did fair better than the i5s and i7s at the highest resolution.
Crysis Warhead is a standalone expansion pack situated in time with the story line of the original Crysis. As Sergeant "Psycho" Sykes, you have a secret mission to accomplish on the far side of the island. Along the way, there are EMP blasts and aliens to contend with, as you hunt down the KPA chief. This game uses an enhanced version of the CryEngine 2.
- 2x Anti Aliasing
- Enthusiast
- Ambush
The Athlon II X4 620 kept up with all of the other CPUs in the bunch.
BioShock is one of the creepier games you can play. The building of a perfect Utopian society undersea gone horribly wrong. Its inhabitants driven mad with the introduction of tonics and genetic modifications. Now Rapture is just a shadow of its former glory with little girls looting the dead of what little they have left while being shadowed by guardians known as "Big Daddies". It is a demanding game that will make your hardware scream for mercy. This First Person Shooter allows for an infinite number of weapons and modifications to provide a unique experience each time it is played. The environment, as well as the story line, will wrap you up for hours on end.

The Athlon II X4 620 was on par with the Phenom II X4 but a bit slower than the Intel chips.
Activision's Call Of Duty World at War goes right back to the bread and butter of the franchise - WWII FPS action. In this rendition, you start off in the South Pacific and move through a series of missions that flip back and forth between the Russian front and the island hopping advance toward the Imperial Japanese homeland. Included is a mission on Peliliu Island, arguably one of the more difficult and costly battles in the Pacific theater. The gameplay in the single player mode is rather short, but the game makes up for this shortcoming in online gameplay. If you thought COD4 looked nice, this game is amazing with the graphics maxed out playing at a large resolution. This game just may be my reason to move to a 30 inch monitor. I will use Fraps to measure a section of gameplay in the Semper Fi map on Makin Island to compare performance of these video cards.
- All in game settings to maximum
- FPS measured via Fraps
The Athlon II X4 620 started off a bit behind but caught up quickly.
In Dead Space, as part of the crew of the USG Kellion, you are headed on a repair mission to repair a ship in distress. Things go from bad to worse as starting with the crash landing and seemingly silent and "Dead" ship, the USG Ishimuru. Offering a non-traditional over the shoulder viewing angle, the game gets right into the action as soon as the ventilation systems are activated. From there things get worse with the appearance of the Necromorphs. Survival now becomes a primary concern for the primary character Isaac Clarke. Survive and you may find the loved one that was aboard the Ishimuru.

The Athlon II X4 620 was a bit behind in Dead Space.
Fallout 3 takes place after the nuclear holocaust that nearly wipes out civilization and leaves the world an irradiated mess. The vault, or fallout shelter, you are born in is Vault 101, situated in the Washington DC, Maryland and Virginia area. The premise of the game is that the vault has been sealed for 200 years and now your father has opened the vault and escaped without a trace. The Overseer believes you are involved, so you must escape as well into the wasteland that was once our nation's capital. I find myself looking for landmarks, since I am familiar with the streets of Washington DC.

The Athlon II X4 620 was behind the Phenom II X4 but better than the Intel processors as the resolution rose.
Left 4 Dead is a new release from Valve that leaves you as part of a group of survivors in a world where an infection has rapidly turned the populace into a zombie horde. You goal is to make it to a rescue point, all the while fighting what seems like overwhelming odds. Along the way there are safe houses where you can replenish your weapons and health. The movie 'I Am Legend' comes to mind to set the stage for this game. But unlike the movie, there are four characters, and not just a lone gun and his faithful companion. The horde is not at all like the typical slow walking, foot shuffling zombie. These zombies are quick and work with the pack mentality. Your job: survival!
- All in game settings to maximum
The Athlon II X4 620 was faster than the Phenom II X4 but still behind the Intel processors.
3DMark06 is one of the benchmarks that always comes up when a bragging contest is started. 3DMark06 presents a severe test for many of today's hardware components. Let's see how this setup fares. The settings we will use are listed below.
- SM2.0 Graphics Tests: GT1- Return to Proxycon, GT2- Firefly Forest
- CPU Tests: Cpu1- Red Valley, CPU2- Red Valley
- HDR/SM3.0 Graphics Tests: HDR1- Canyon Flight, HDR2- Deep Freeze
The Athlon II X4 620 had the lowest score of the bunch here.
Featuring all-new game tests, this benchmark is for use with Vista based systems. "There are two all-new CPU tests that have been designed around a new 'Physics and Artificial Intelligence-related computation.' CPU test two offers support for physics related hardware." There are four preset levels that correspond to specific resolutions. 'Entry' is 1024x768 progressing to 'Extreme' at 1920x1200. Of course, each preset can be modified to arrange any number of user designed testing. For our testing, I will use the four presets at all default settings.
- All default settings in each preset level
- Entry 1024x768
- Performance 1280x1024
- High 1680x1050
- Extreme 1920x1200
In 3DMark Vantage the Athlon II X4 620 beat out the Phenom II X4 in three of the four runs but was slower than the Intel chips.
I have to say, I am very impressed with the new Athlon II X4 series processor. This baby performed very well despite having a low L2 cache, no L3 cache and a low clock speed of 2.6GHz. While it was no match for the Intel i7 series, it did come close when put up against the Intel i5 series in the gaming benchmarks and some of the scientific ones as well. When put up against the Phenom II X4 it came even closer, especially in benchmarks where the system as a whole was benchmarked and not just the CPU by itself. When it comes to overclocking, while it will not break any speed records, it did very well considering the multiplier is locked at 13x. I was able to turn up the reference clock to a nice 241MHz at 1.5 volts and the temperature stayed a cool maximum of 38C degrees under water, which is very cool considering the voltage pumping into it. When not overclocked, the processor never broke 25C degrees with the ambient temperature at a constant 22C degrees. This processor was a pleasure to use and shows great promise for those wanting to run a good and decently powerful system without spending a lot of money. At launch, the Athlon II X4 620 is going to be selling for only $99, which is unheard of for a quad core processor, especially one that performs this well for the price. When paired with the 790X motherboard used for this review, you have a nice setup for a workstation or a gaming computer for under $230. You have to admit, that is a very good start for that nice gaming rig you have been wanting to build but were limited on the funds. If you are needing a good quad core processor for your next build I would without a doubt encourage you to look into the new Athlon II X4 series because it will be money well spent.
- Under $100 for a Quad Core processor
- Performs very well with price per performance ratio
- DDR2 and DDR3 memory compatible
- HyperTransport 3.0
- Low L2 cache and no L3 cache

I decided to spend the day cleaning out my storage area because I haven't done it for years and I've been tossing things any-old-where for all that time. But not cleaning all of it because that's too much of a challenge for one day … only 8 boxes.
A few years ago I picked up this item in a second-hand store, not because I know what it is but because it looks like an organizer of some kind. Anything to do with organizing peaks my interest, life being the disorganized mess it is. And I thought I'd figure out what to do with it after I got home.
After awhile of looking at it I still didn't know what to do with it so off to the storage area it went.
Today it's back to haunt me. Does anyone know what it is? I dipped it in water to rinse off the dust and because I thought if I spent some time with it I might figure out what it's good for. Obviously, some-one took the time to sew it but then gave it away to a second-hand store which does not bode well for its usefulness.
I tried putting kitchen cutlery in it but that doesn't seem to be it. Too heavy. I'm thinking maybe 'sock organizer'. Too small for socks unless you're under age 5. Something to do with hanging in a closet? Possibly something I don't own. Like multi-colored pantyhose that needs to be organized in rows by color? Do people actually do that?

The Whiteboard Way© is a practical way to begin your process improvement journey. It's not a lengthy, complex, and expensive methodology. Rather, it's a simple approach using the best and most helpful tools from a number of proven quality methodologies. With this 5-step approach, you and your team will be up-to-speed and improving your business in no time.
Define It!
|Probably the most critical (and sometimes most difficult) step in any kind of process improvement activity is the first step - defining what's wrong.
Sounds easy, right? Well, done right, it's actually pretty tricky.The key is to be able to express the issue without assuming what the root of the problem is, or what the solution might be. It's also important to include some kind of baseline performance data that will not only prove the need for an improvement project and show alignment to the organization's goals, but will show the extent of the improvement after it's implemented. Concepts and tools we use include:
Deliverables in the "Define It" Stage:
Draw It!
|Once the issue is properly expressed via a problem statement, the next step is to prepare a visual representation of what's going on in the current state.
Most people (65%) are visual learners - that is, they are more likely to "get it" when they view an image, than they will if they merely listen to someone talk about it, or read a report. A well-drawn process map not only helps visual learners comprehend the scope of the current state, but it also allows people to identify:
Concepts and tools we use include:
Deliverables in the "Draw It" Stage:
Imagine It!
|In this third phase we are finally ready to think about solutions.
This is a favourite step for all the "dreamers" in the organization - those who like to say "what if we tried this", or "here's an idea". We brainstorm all the potentials things that are impacting the current state, and envision what a perfect future state would look like. Finally, we pick the right place to focus the improvement efforts.Concepts and tools we use include:
Deliverables in the "Imagine It" Stage:
Prove It!
|At this point, we help people build their case.
The great work done so far has proven what is wrong, why it's wrong, and what the critical improvement areas are. Now we need some approvals to proceed - especially if some capital outlay is required - and getting those approvals requires a business case.KeyConcepts and tools we use include:
Deliverables in the "Prove It" Stage:
Talk About It!
|Communicate, get stakeholders on board, and implement.
You might have come up with the best idea since sliced bread, but unless you talk about it, share it and explain it to others, it will not actualize itself.Have you heard of Alfred Russel Wallace? No? Bet you've heard of Charles Darwin. The difference? One communicated, the other didn't.There are three key elements to consider when you're communicating.

Walk-in closet in a mini bedroom
An old fave from domino. This is such a great idea for a small room with no storage. A loft bed leaves leftover room underneath for a closet system to organize clothes and accessories. Fabric on the loft's undercarriage and custom curtains dresses things up. Every inch is maximized and the space feels serene and clutter free.
How Jocelyn Organizes Her Closet
This week's guest participating in the 'How I Organize' series is graphic designer Jocelyn of The Stylish Type, who makes and sells pretty decor prints on Etsy and frequently shares her uber stylish outfits on her blog. She gives us a peek inside her home and shares with us her beautifully organized closet:
My closet is small and far from the walk-in-closet I would one day like to own. For this reason, I have to be creative with how I organized it and take advantage of every square foot of space I've got. That's where closet storage solutions come in handy. I'm all about using extra hanging rods, shelves, bins, special hangers, and anything else you can get your hands on to make your closet functional. One of my biggest pet peeves is having a huge mess and not being able to see what I own. Accessibility is also important so I organize by type and then color.
My new Real Simple solutions hangers that I purchased at Bed Bath and Beyond are the best for maximizing hanging space. They are ultra-slim and have a built in hook feature that can be used to stack clothing or hang accessories like scarves and belts. Utilizing these babies to their full potential could ultimately give me double the closet space. A belt loop hanger is also a good investment to keep belts organized and visible.
I own a lot of coats for those chilly San Francisco days so I used an extra closet rod to take advantage of the lost space under my tops and skirts. I purchased some stackable shelves to double my shoe storage and used clear bins to store hats, scarves, and clutches. For those narrow spaces where traditional shelves won't fit, I used an ordinary locker shelf to gain a little extra space. A basket on the floor is also a good place to store extra blankets or miscellaneous belongings.
Extra Tips:
*Use command hooks on the walls to hang hats or necklaces. They are easily to use and don't require hammering into the wall.
*If you have a door that opens towards you, use the back and hang a shoe organizer. It's the perfect place to store flats and flip-flops.

Beautifully Organized Space of the Week
It's the last one of 2010, so let's make it a fabulous one shall we?This week's beautifully organized space is from the home of fellow blogger Megan of Honey We're Home. Prior to moving into her custom built home, Megan lived in a townhouse with very limited closet space so having the opportunity to have a walk-in closet of this size was a dream come true for her.
The closet is just off the bathroom and measures 9'4 x 13'2! It was designed to include an island with cubbies in the middle, a shoe rack, built-in dresser, adjustable hanging shelves, shelves for purses, and a fabulous chandelier.
Pants are hung on wire hangers from Bed, Bath and Beyond and jeans are on small felt hangers that don't bow in the middle. Before the shoe rack was built, Megan counted her shoes to see how much space she'd need. The top shelf was removed to fit tall boots which are kept upright used boot inserts.
Scarves are hung and tied over a lower rod. Lightweight sweaters are folded over white plastic hangers from Target and arranged by color -creates such a beautiful rainbow effect don't you think?
Megan created a necklace holder behind the door using Commandhooks. She stores her purses on the side shelves. Her dresser drawers hold gym clothes, undies, sleepwear, and more jewelry.
The full-length mirror to the left of the dresser is where she plops down to do her makeup each day.
Atop the island is a runner is from World Market, a clear bin holding her makeup from The Container Store, and a flower vase and candy jar from Home Goods. On the right side of the island, she keeps her tank tops, casual long sleeve shirts, and shorts/capri pants. On the left, storage bins from Target hold belts, bikinis, and scarves. The zebra ottoman is from Hobby Lobby.

How Stephanie Organizes Her Handbags
Today we have blogger Stephanie Fisher of Glitter and Goat Cheese participating in the How I Organize series. She gives us a look at how she organizes her fabulous handbags:
I have to admit – I've always been the walk-in-and-throw-everything-on-the-floor type. My poor purses used to find themselves discarded on the floor on a daily basis. But when I became the proud owner of a chew-happy puppy with a penchant for raiding my bags, I knew it was time to find a better solution.
We rent a home without many built-in hanging solutions, so we utilize these over-the-door racks in several rooms. This particular one used to hold towels in our guest bathroom, but now it hangs in my office and is the home for my most-used handbags. (As you can probably tell – I have a bit of thing for black, gold and sequins.) The office is close to the front door, so it's a quick, convenient spot to unload my purse before I head in to greet my puppy. Plus, I love that my favorite bags are on display instead of hidden in a closet!

The Coast Guard has suspended a search for what was thought to be boaters in trouble.
Officials at the Coast Guard Station Hatteras Island say a helicopter from the air station in Elizabeth City started its second search for the source of a red flare about four miles off the coast of Buxton in Dare County. It failed to find anything this morning and the search was discontinued.
The Coast Guard received two reports of the red flare overnight. The first call came in at 8:45 p.m. Sunday. Search efforts overnight were hampered by fog on the water.
We're gathering details on a developing story overnight as a Coast Guard helicopter is preparing to go on a second search this morning for what might be boaters in trouble.
The Coast Guard says they received two reports of a red flare overnight, about four miles off the coast of Buxton in Dare County. The first call came in at 8:45 p.m. Sunday.
A Coast Guard helicopter from Elizabeth City was turned back because of heavy fog on the water; they say they plan to search again for the source of that flare at first light.

The American Red Cross Fort Carson Station has a
youth volunteer program for ages 14-17 years
old. This program runs through the summer from
the end of the school year to the beginning of
the school in the fall. Once the youth
completes the summer program, their volunteering
can continue throughout the school year.
To join the program, each youth is required to
complete an application and interview process.
The volunteer positions are career oriented.
This gives the youth an opportunity to see a
field in the medical career that may be of
interest to them for their future vocation.
Applications are available during the month of
May at the Red Cross office located in Evan Army
Community Hospital. The application form will
list the in-process requirements for youth to
volunteers. One requirement we recommend not
waiting until May to complete, is having an up
to date immunization record. This is a federal
requirement for all personnel working at a
medical facility.
Below is a list of the required immunizations.
Hepatitis B
Tetanus-Diphtheria or Tetanus-Diphtheria-Pertussis
(T/d or Tdap)
Tuberculin Skin Testing (TST)
For more information, please contact the main
volunteer office at 526-7144.
