We certainly hope this finds you well and keeping cool from the record breaking summer heat. Our apologizes for the severe lack of communication from the Secretariat this summer. In light of our office undergoing unplanned construction and the UNI server being down due to a full UNI account merge to Google Accounts, we've been unable to communicate and even access most incoming
emails to our account.
Furthermore, as our website is strictly facilitated through the UNI Department of History, we'll continue to be unable to update our website until as late as the beginning of September. Until that time, we'll continue using our Wikispace account page as we can edit it remotely. In case you have never utilized our Wikispace, you can find it at http://ihsmunsecretariat.wikispaces.com/. On the homepage you will find the 2012 Country List and in the left hand sidebar you can find the full docket for ICJ as well as the 2011-2012 Important Dates.
As you may have expected, due to our technological/construction complications we have extended the deadline for FIRST ROUND COUNTRY REGISTRATION UNTIL AUGUST 8TH. In addition to this, if you sent your original requests to us via FAX, PHONE OR SNAIL MAIL we have not received it due to the construction displacing the mailboxes and disconnecting our office lines. PLEASE RESEND ANY REQUESTS SENT IN THAT FORMAT.
Lastly, please send all email communication to email@example.com until further notice. Again, due to UNI's current Google Account merger, all UNI emails phase in and out of functionality, and our direct Gmail has proven to be the only consistent mechanism for communication.
We are, of course, very sorry to have to inconvenienced yourselves and the students, unfortunately, University decisions are completely out of our control.
Best wishes:
Rhonda Greenway and Laura Castro

Definition of Arachnophobia
Arachnophobia: An abnormal and persistent fear of spiders. Sufferers from arachnophobia experience undue anxiety, even though they realize that the risk of encountering a spider and being harmed by it is small or nonexistent. They may avoid going barefoot and may be especially alert when taking showers or getting into and out of bed.Source: MedTerms™ Medical Dictionary

High-temperature silicic volcanic rocks, including strongly rheomorphic tuffs and extensive silicic lavas, have recently been recognized to be abundant in the geologic record. However, their mechanisms of eruption and emplacement are still controversial, and traditional criteria used to distinguish conventional ash-flow tuffs from silicic lavas largely fail to distinguish the high-temperature versions. We suggest the following criteria, ordered in decreasing ease of identification, to distinguish strongly rheomorphic tuffs from extensive silicic lavas: (1) the character of basal deposits; (2) the nature of distal parts of flows; (3) the relationship of units to pre-existing topography; and (4) the type of source. As a result of quenching against the ground, basal deposits best preserve primary features, can be observed in single outcrops, and do not require knowing the full extent of a unit. Lavas commonly develop basal breccias composed of a variety of textural types of the flow in a finer clastic matrix; such deposits are unique to lavas. Because the chilled base of an ashflow tuff generally does not participate in secondary flow, primary pyroclastic features are best preserved there. Massive, flow-banded bases are more consistent with a lava than a pyroclastic origin. Lavas are thick to their margins and have steep, abrupt flow fronts. Ashflow tuffs thin to no more than a few meters at their distal ends, where they generally do not show any secondary flow features. Lavas are stopped by topographic barriers unless the flow is much thicker than the barrier. Ash-flow tuffs moving at even relatively slow velocities can climb over barriers much higher than the resulting deposit. Lavas dominantly erupt from fissures and maintain fairly uniform thicknesses throughout their extents. Tuffs commonly erupt from calderas where they can pond to thicknesses many times those of their outflow deposits. These criteria may also prove effective in distinguishing extensive silicic lavas from a postulated rock type termed lava-like ignimbrite. The latter have characteristics of lavas except for great areal extents, up to many tens of kilometers. These rocks have been interpreted as ash-flow tuffs that formed from low, boiling-over eruption columns, based almost entirely on their great extents and the belief that silicic lavas could not flow such distances. However, we interpret the best known examples of lava-like ignimbrites to be lavas. This interpretation should be tested through additional documentation of their characteristics and research on the boiling-over eruption mechanism and the kinds of deposits it can produce. Flow bands, flow folds, ramps, elongate vesicles, and probably upper breccias occur in both lavas and strongly rheomorphic tuffs and are therefore not diagnostic. Pumice and shards also occur in both tuffs and lavas, although they occur throughout ash-flow tuffs and generally only in marginal breccias of lavas. Dense welding, secondary flow, and intense alteration accompanying crystallization at high temperature commonly obliterate primary textures in both thick, rheomorphic tuffs and thick lavas. High-temperature silicic volcanic rocks are dominantly associated with tholeiitic flood basalts. Extensive silicic lavas could be appropriately termed flood rhyolites.

Description: The story of Jesus Christ's crucifixion is one of betrayal, brutality, despair, and pain. Yet we know even before His death that redemption was promised to be coming soon. We know that the story does not end at the cross. We know what many did not realize - that Sunday's comin'. Celebrating Easter means rejoicing in the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus and recognizing what each of those events can teach us about the character of God. Be reminded of this truth during Easter: God has worked, is working, and will work through all things, even now as we find ourselves awaiting his return.

Vt. Senate supports board: No pets in hair salonsThe Associated Press | April 30,2013MONTPELIER - The Vermont Senate has gone on record supporting a state board's ruling that pets don't belong in barber shops and beauty parlors.
In a 14-13 vote, the Senate defeated an amendment by Democratic Sen. Richard Sears of Bennington that would have allowed animals in commercial hair-cutting establishments.
Sears says he pushed for the measure after an inspector for the state Board of Cosmetology cited Bennington-area businesses for allowing pets on the premises.
The measure failed after Sen. Anthony Pollina of Washington County argued that regulatory boards should be allowed to make such decisions without interference by lawmakers.
An exception is made for service animals like seeing-eye dogs, which are allowed in commercial establishments under the Americans With Disabilities Act.MORE IN This Just In

I left out the whipped cream since I did not have any, but I added 1/2 cup of peanut butter and WOW that was good.. I used an ice-cream maker and this was awesome. I also used black coco powder avaliable at king arthur flout dot com... and a pinch of salt to bring out the flavor.
I used fat free evap milk and in pouring a can into the measuring cup I found it to be shy of the 2 cups ask for (I made a 1/2 recipe) and made up the missing liquid with some coffee I had chilled for another use. This is gorgeously creamy and rich tasting and oh so smooth. I used the food processor because it's so much easier to get stuff out of and it worked just fine. This one is in my All Time Fav's cookbook. *EDIT*: I wrote this review before the ice cream had fully frozen and I have to add that it freezes to be quite hard (not at all easy to scoop) and the wonderful texture mentioned above changed to that of hard pudding with ice crystals in it. The good news is that as it melts it once again becomes smooth, rich and creamy.
I made this with evaporated skim milk, so it was low-sugar and fat-free. This is a real treat that I can enjoy without feeling guilty. Healthy yet tastes downright sinful. Good job Sarah, you posted a winner in my book!

Binaural Reproduction of 22.2 Multichannel Sound Over Loudspeakers
NHK has proposed the 22.2 multichannel sound system, which consists of 22 loudspeakers and two for LFE producing three-dimensional spatial sound, to be the format for future TV broadcasting. To allow it to be reproduced in homes, we have investigated various reproduction methods that use fewer loudspeakers. We introduce a design of binaural rendering of the 22.2 multichannel sound with three frontal loudspeakers as a minimum configuration model for homes. It can stably process the system inverse filters by dividing them into all-pass and minimum-phase components and successfully compensate the sound quality with a peak suppression method.

Has Job Stability Declined Yet? New Evidence for the 1990's
In earlier work we examined the temporal evolution of job stability in U.S. labor markets through the 1980's, using data assembled from a sequence of Current Population Survey tenure supplements. We found little or no change in aggregate job stability in the U.S. economy. In addition, older and more-tenured workers experienced increases in job stability in the" latter part of the 1980's. In this paper we update the evidence on changes in job stability through the mid-1990's, using recently-released CPS data for 1995 that parallel the earlier job tenure supplements. Updating the evidence from systematic random samples of the population and workforce through this period is especially important because the media have painted a particularly stark picture of declining job stability in the 1990's. In the aggregate, there is some evidence that job stability declined modestly in the first half of the 1990's. Moreover, the relatively small aggregate changes mask rather sharp declines in stability for workers with more than a few years of tenure. Nonetheless, the data available to this point do not support the conclusion that the downward shift in job stability for more-tenured workers stability, reflect long-term trends.

For fans of the beautiful and multi-talented singer, songwriter and actress Vanessa Lynn Williams.
Vanessa Lynn Williams (born March 18, 1963) is an American R&B/pop/theatrical, singer, and actress. In 1983, Williams made history when she became the first woman of known African descent to be crowned Miss America. Her regime as Miss America came to an early and abrupt end when she resigned her title in scandal. However, she has since gone on to a successful entertainment career. Williams secured a record deal, and released her debut album, The Right Stuff. The first single, "Dreamin'", was a chart success, and the album reached gold status and earned her three Grammy Award nominations, including one for Best New Artist.
In addition to "Dreamin'", her most notable chart successes have included the songs "Running Back To You", "Love Is", "The Sweetest Days", "Colors of the Wind", "The Comfort Zone", "Just For Tonight" and "Oh How The Years Go By". Williams' biggest hit to date is "Save the Best For Last", which topped the Billboard Hot 100 for five weeks from March 21 to April 18, 1992. In total, Williams has sold six million records and received fifteen Grammy Award nominations.
In 2005, Williams released her eighth studio album, Everlasting Love, a collection of covers of her favorite 1970s songs.
Williams has appeared in several feature films. Her most prominent role was in the film Soul Food (1997), for which she won the NAACP Image Award for Outstanding Actress in a Motion Picture. Vanessa appeared in the 1991 cult classic film Harley Davidson and the Marlboro Man. She also co-starred with Arnold Schwarzenegger in the movie Eraser and opposite Latin sensation Chayanne in Dance with Me.
In 2007, Williams received considerable media attention for her comic/villainess role as magazine creative director Wilhelmina Slater in the ABC comedy series Ugly Betty, produced by Salma Hayek. Her performance on the series resulted in a nomination for outstanding supporting actress at the 59th Primetime Emmy Awards.

Suppose I spin up a machine in EC2. Every time I stop/start the machine the following things change (reboots are safe--they don't cause these to change):
- public IP address
- public DNS record
- private IP address
- private DNS record
- removes associated elastic IP
How can I reliably connect to the machine if the addresses/DNS records change every time it is started?
Should I stick with EIPs but add a startup script to reassociate it with my instance when it boots?
There's got to be a better way!

Natalie was born in the U.S.A (Boulder Colorado), but went to school in the U.S., New Zealand, the U.K. and Australia. After completing high school (in Canberra), she went ´walkabout´ - spending several years on a Prawn Trawler, travelling with a circus, and helping run a small silvicultural contracting business. She then started University at ANU – to find that she thoroughly enjoyed economics, academia and research.
Nowadays, Natalie is perhaps best described as an economist with a keen interest in the environmental and social/distributional issues associated with economic growth - with extensive experience in a variety of non-market valuation techniques. What distinguishes her from many other economists, is her track record of collaborative cross-disciplinary research using models that combine economic, environmental and social variables to explore interactions between socio-economic and ecological systems. She has published widely in both national and international forums and supervises many (mostly multidisciplinary) research students.

Harnessing the science of social marketing and behaviour change for improved water quality in the GBR: an action research project
- Indicative Funding
- $480,000 over 3 years
- Summary
- Working in partnership with staff from the Australian Government's DOtE, DSITI and DEHP, this project will use data collected from land managers and elsewhere to critically evaluate the way water quality improvement programmes are 'marketed'. It will use insights from those evaluations to inform the reconfiguration of marketing and engagement strategies associated with programmes scheduled for roll-out during 2017, demonstrating methods for monitoring and assessing the extent to which these different programmes and changed strategies improve adoption and alter behaviours.

Improving seaweed production and processing opportunities in Indonesia
- Indicative Funding
- $70,812
- Summary
- Seaweed culture in Indonesia is one of the few available income-generating opportunities for coastal communities and supports an estimated 120,000 small holder seaweed farmers. There are however problems with seaweed quality, processing procedures and utilisation of waste streams from processing and a strong desire to commercialise new species with the ability to value-add and that new products be developed thus diversifying the markets into which seaweed can be sold.

Research priorities for Indigenous Protected Areas (IPAs) across Northern Australia
- Indicative Funding
- $45,000 over 2 years (administered by Charles Darwin University)
- Summary
- Indigenous Protected Areas (IPAs) protect biodiversity, ecosystem services, cultural and community values. This collaborative project involving NAILSMA, CSIRO and JCU seeks to prioritise research needs for IPAs. Working closely with IPA managers and other key stakeholders, a sub-component of the project (JCU's focus), will identify: (a) core social, economic and cultural benefits associated with IPA's; (b) gaps in our understanding of the economic 'value' of those benefits; and © ways in which stakeholders could use information about the economic 'value' of those benefits in decision making contexts. Results will contribute to the development of a multi-year research plan to help address those priorities.

Review of integrated models, frameworks and decision support tools to guide management and planning in Northern Australia
- Indicative Funding
- $62,000 over 2 years (administered by Charles Darwin University)
- Summary
- Different modelling tools have been developed and trialled in Northern Australia to contribute to planning for multiple objectives. The variety of available models, and the complexity of some, makes it difficult for end-users to assess which of the models would be suitable for their needs. Different models inform different types of management decisions, in different contexts, and have very different costs and human capacity requirements. This project will provide a resource that will help ensure that tools which are selected for development/trial suit end-users needs and can be feasibly developed with available resources and with knowledge of their strengths and limitations.

Cairns Port: Understanding Current and Future Economic Opportunities of the Cruise Ship Terminal at Trinity Inlet, Cairns
- Indicative Funding
- $9,091
- Summary
- Leisure cruising is often regarded as the fastest growing segment of the tourism sector. With the largest ships now boasting berthing capacities of well over 3,000 passengers, the industry has faced heightened scrutiny regarding the risks cruise vessels pose to vulnerable marine ecosystems. In 2014, Ports North submitted an environmental impact statement concerning its proposal to dredge the shipping channel at Trinity Inlet to allow so called 'mega-class' cruise ships quayside access to Cairns. To strengthen public contributions to the analysis of the project, the Australian Marine Conservation Society, in partnership with WWF – Australia, contracted James Cook University to investigate the potential economic contributions of expanded cruise tourism in the city. This report provides critical context allowing policymakers and local stakeholders in Cairns—including tourism operators—to participate in an informed discussion about the benefits and risks of cruise tourism in the city.

Socio-economic systems and reef resilience
- Indicative Funding
- $800,000 over 5 years
- Summary
- This project focuses on relationships between socio-economic systems and the Great Barrier Reef (GBR). It comprises three interrelated activities which seek to improve our understanding of (a) resident and tourist views about the relative 'value' of key ecosystem services that are provided by the reef; (b) tourist views about the relative value of key attributes of reef health, and the likely consequence (e.g. fewer visits, less expenditure) of deterioration in reef health; and (c) the extent to which variations in beef prices, the exchange rate and other socioeconomic variables (in conjunction with biophysical variables) influence water quality in the GBR lagoon.

After today's upgrade of 12.04 to the latest Linux kernel and Chrome to version 20 my camera (Creative Live! Cam Sicialize HD) behaves weirdly when I'm on Gmail page in Chrome: it blinks and the browser itself hangs from time to time for a few seconds. I don't know which affects which (i.e. Linux update troubles Chrome or vise versa) and so far could't find a solution. It's obvious though that the above behavior is caused by Chrome's Talk plugin - when I close the Gmail tab the browser returns back to normal. Any ideas what it is and how to fix this issue?
It seems the google talk plugin is flash based. You may be having problems with the new version of flash.
This isn't guaranteed to fix your problem, but try disabling the latest version of flash (will default to 11.2 instead).

Mazda3 Dominates with Record Breaking Sales for September
With sales of over 14,000, the Mazda3 was a clear winner for the month of September.
As mentioned, the sales increase owes much to Mazda's recent powertrain innovations, which rely on a host of small improvements to deliver a big-time fuel-economy gain of about 15 percent. Yet at the same time, the increased efficiency also means 10-15 percent more torque, for zoomier performance.
In the Mazda3, for example, EPA ratings went from a high-water mark of 25 mpg city/33 mpg highway/28 mpg combined in its previous generation to 28/40/33 in the 2012 Mazda3 SKYACTIV sedan. Then, torque also jumped to 148 lb.-ft. (+13 lb.-ft.) and horsepower grew to 155 hp (+ 7 horses). But the Mazda3 isn't the only one of the automaker's product enjoying the benefits of this new technology.
The all-new 2013 Mazda CX-5 crossover—capable of EPA grades of up to 26 mpg city/35 mpg highway/29 mpg combined with a SKYACTIV powertrain—has been so popular that the automaker is having trouble keeping dealerships stocked up—although help is on the way.

WASHINGTON - The Bush administration is resisting calls from across the political spectrum to broaden the automatic enrollment of poor people in the Medicare discount drug card program.
One reason cited by administration officials: They don't want to limit people's choice of cards, a key element in the competition among drug cards that is supposed to help reduce prescription drug prices.
"We expect that by making the prices of most commonly prescribed drugs used by Medicare beneficiaries available to the public, the prices will actually drop due to competition," Mark McClellan, administrator of the federal Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, told Congress in June.
McClellan said in a recent interview that the administration is halfway to its goal of 7.4 million people in the discount card program, a temporary measure before drug insurance under Medicare begins in 2006.
Yet two-thirds of the nearly 3.7 million people who now have cards had no choice. Either they belong to an HMO that requires members to use its card or they are in a state prescription drug assistance plan for the poor that won approval to sign up participants automatically.
There are roughly six dozen national and regional discount cards for which Medicare beneficiaries pay up to $30.
The administration says prices have declined 10 percent to 25 percent since companies that offer drug cards began revealing their prices in late April; critics say the discounts have been undercut by price increases that preceded the start of the program.
For poor older and disabled Americans who have no drug insurance, the cards are free and the government provides $600 a year to defray the costs of prescription medications.
Health care analysts estimate the government easily could enroll 700,000 or so low-income people by simply expanding automatic enrollment.
"I know CMS is hung up about giving those people a choice," said Joseph Antos, a health policy expert at the conservative American Enterprise Institute. "We should do as much as we can not to leave people out."
Democrats in both houses of the Republican-led Congress have introduced legislation to require automatic enrollment of more low-income Medicare beneficiaries, but those bills have not advanced.
"The point is that for these low-income individuals, it's just crazy ... for them to miss the opportunity of $600 a year," said Sen. Blanche Lincoln, D-Ark., an author of the Senate bill.
Rep. Sherrod Brown, D-Ohio, a sponsor of the House bill, said the administration is following an ideological path.
"It makes so much more sense just to give it to people, but that doesn't fit the conservative, free-market ideology, which they insist on even when it's clear it's not working," Brown said.
Those eligible for the aid are traditionally hard to reach for reasons that include educational and language barriers.
McClellan has not ruled out broader automatic signups, but for now the administration is spending nearly $5 million to work with a coalition of civic organizations to get the poor to enroll on their own.
He said he expects the pace of enrollment to quicken in coming weeks as more people become familiar with the discounts, and technical problems that plagued the start of the program recede.

I have searched the forum and found a similar subject as that I entered above but my situation is a little more unique. The current theme I've had running for about 5 years is outdated and during this time we have tried out probably over 50 different plugins and eventually cut down to 23. Now the site is getting 7K+ visitors a day and every time we try and launch the new site the server crashes. I have recently tweaked W3 Total Cache to work with a CDN to try and offset this.
Any advice on this matter before we try again? Is it best to start with a fresh new wordpress install that references a new database and implement the latest plugins? If we do this does this mean everything has to be re-cached so even the CDN's could not be helpful?
Greatly appreciate any input you guys have on this matter!

City man earns national recognition
By KAREN D. SMITH
Globe-News Features Writer
More than a year of ??cloak-and-dagger?? operations brought the prestigious National Society Daughters of the American Revolution Medal of Honor to Amarilloan John Dawson.
The Llano Estacado Chapter of the national DAR presented Dawson with the award, the pinnacle of the society?s honors, during a luncheon on Saturday at the Amarillo Club.
The medal goes to an adult man or woman who is a U.S. citizen by birth and has shown outstanding qualities of leadership, trustworthiness, service and patriotism. The award is one of two that the society counts as its most prestigious. The other, a similar honor, is bestowed upon naturalized U.S. citizens, said chapter vice regent Nell Findley.
??They kept stressing as we made the application that the (honoree?s) influence must go outside the immediate community,?? she said.
Dawson?s background ? gathered with the help of his wife, Sharon Jelinek ? provided ample evidence of his work in Amarillo and the surrounding area, Findley said.
Dawson ? whose name is shortened, for radio purposes, from his full name John Dawson Jelinek ? is a 24-year resident of Amarillo. His voice is known throughout the city, the Texas and Oklahoma panhandles, Eastern New Mexico and parts of Kansas through an extensive radio career here. He also served much the same readership area as a journalist with the Amarillo Globe-News for five years.
Dawson has been president of West Amarillo Rotary Club and also edits the group?s newsletter; has served as president and board member of Goodwill Industries; as a member of the Bivins Rehabilitation Advisory Board; and as a member of the city of Amarillo?s Advisory Commission for the Disabled, according to information provided by the Llano Estacado Chapter.
He participates in a Rotary Club mentoring program, is a tutor in the Help One Student To Succeed program in the Amarillo Independent School District, and teaches and mentors at the Nathaniel J. ??Nat?? Neal Unit of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice.
??He seems to see the importance of letting people achieve on their own, as he has,?? Findley said, pointing to Dawson?s work in mentoring and tutoring programs. ??It?s helping others, but it?s helping them to achieve on their own merits without somebody handing something to them.??
Dawson?s deeds extend beyond the time he has spent living in Amarillo, Findley said.
??We did find that he?s been guilty of these things all his life,?? she said. ??He lived in Colorado for 20 years and, before that, in Kansas. And we find this pattern of volunteering and wanting to help others.??
Chapter members sought letters from current and longtime Dawson associates, Findley said.
Frank Gardner, director of public relations for Donnelly College at Kansas City, Kan., wrote fondly of Dawson.
??We were childhood friends in Crete, Neb., where he was Dawson Jelinek,?? Gardner wrote in a letter supporting Dawson?s medal nomination. ??Our mutual interest in journalism made us pen pals over the years. In the random selection of life, it was Dawson who was stricken with polio and not me or any of our friends. Out of this adversity, he became a man of determination and character.??
Alma McArthur, principal of the Neal Unit school in the Windham School District, said Dawson serves as a substitute teacher at both the Neal and William P. Clements Jr. Unit.
??The inmates and teachers like to have John as a substitute teacher,?? McArthur wrote in her letter. ??He is thorough, follows lesson plans and really teaches the students. The students will request him when we know the teacher will be absent.??
Paul Matney, chairman of Amarillo College?s Division of Language, Communication and Fine Arts, also gave Dawson high marks in his profession and volunteerism.
??Mr. Dawson, longtime news broadcaster for KGNC Radio, has earned the admiration and respect of the citizens of the High Plains,?? Matney wrote. ??Not only is Mr. Dawson well-respected as a broadcaster and newsman, but he is also a dedicated leader and supporter of our community. On many occasions in the past, I have asked Mr. Dawson to serve as a guest lecturer in my mass communication classes at Amarillo College. My students are always impressed with John?s knowledge, enthusiasm and his ability to excite and motivate an audience.??
Former Colorado U.S. Rep. and Sen. William L. Armstrong, a friend of Dawson?s, also wrote in support.
??During the years I was a member of the U.S. House of Representatives and later, the United States Senate, I became increasingly convinced that the greatness of this country is not in its laws, its military power, public works programs, etc. The greatness of America, I believe, is enshrined in the hearts of community leaders like John Dawson Jelinek,?? Armstrong wrote. ??I?ve known John for nearly 40 years and admire him for his ability and integrity. As a broadcaster and a journalist, John has always championed and fostered the ideals of patriotism, family, faith and free enterprise ... the values that make America great.??
Stacey Curtis, HOSTS teacher at Sunrise Elementary School, gave her support to the nomination, as well as supplying a letter from one of the children he mentored in 1997-98, Leeland Clines.
??John Dawson is my HOSTS mentor. I love working with him!?? Clines wrote. ??John makes learning fun, he teaches me things. When I do something good, John says, ?Way to go, man!? We have fun together.??

Seagate Begins Volume Shipment of 10TB Helium-Filled Enterprise Capacity 3.5" HDD
Subject: Storage | April 29, 2016 - 01:36 PM | Allyn Malventano
Tagged: Seagate, helium, hdd, Enterprise Capacity 3.5, 10TB
We've seen a ramp up of Helium filled-hard drives lately, first with HGST, and more recently with Western Digital Red 8TB and Gold 8TB. It seems Seagate also wants in on the fun:
This drive was initially paper-launched back in January, but now Seagate claims it is shipping in volume. While that original release and today's update both lack performance specs, there are a few interesting tidbits sprinkled in there:
- This is a CMR drive, not SMR, meaning that it can be written randomly without any of the batch write penalties of Shingled Magnetic Recording.
- 'Advanced write caching capabilities' hints at a form of the media cache tech present in the HGST He6/He8 and also recently adopted by the WD 8TB Gold.
- The Seagate 10TB release from earlier this year stated that his model will be a 7-platter design with 14 heads. Helium enables thinner platters, and 7-platter designs began appearing in the HGST He6.
- At nearly 1.5TB per platter and an assumed spindle speed of 7200 RPM, we can infer that the base specs should be reasonably impressive.
New press blast appears after the break. Original launch blast is linked here.
Coming up on electronic hoarders, the Seagate 8TB NAS drive
Subject: Storage | April 26, 2016 - 01:56 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: Seagate, 8TB, NAS
Seagate is not to be outdone by Western Digital and their 8TB Red drive and have released their own 8TB NAS HDD. The model which eTeknix reviewed is designed for SMBs and users that have a huge amount of content they plan to store in the long term. That results in a 3 year warranty, a limit of 8 drives in a NAS and rated workload of 180TB per year, somewhat less than the Enterprise model, however it is also less expensive. eTeknix uses a different battery of tests than we do here at PCPer, you can see how the drive is rated in AIDA, Anvil, Crystaldisk and others over in their full review, the numbers are similar to the WD Red drive even with the lack of a rarefied atmosphere.
"Just as you wouldn't use a low-end graphics card for high-end usage, you shouldn't use the wrong hard disk drive in your storage system either. There is a reason for every product and you should always pick the one suited for the task at hand, especially when you deal with your storage. Today I'm taking a closer look at Seagate's impressive 8TB NAS HDD and we will take a look at how well it performs."

Seagate to Show 10 GB/s PCIe x16 Flash Drive at OCP Summit
Subject: Storage | March 8, 2016 - 03:07 PM | Allyn Malventano
Tagged: ssd, Seagate, pcie, NVMe, flash drive
Today Seagate announced that they are production ready on a couple of NVMe PCIe SSD models. These are data-center tailored units that focus on getting as much parallel flash into as small of a space as possible. From engineering drawings, the first appears to be a half height (HHHL) device, communicates over a PCIe 3.0 x8 link, and reaches a claimed 6.7GB/s:
The second model is a bit more interesting for a few reasons. This is a PCIe 3.0 x16 unit (same lane configuration as a high end GPU) that claims 10 GB/s:
10 GB/s, hmm, where have I seen that before? :)
The second image gives away a bit of what may be going on under that heatsink. There appears to be four M.2 form factor SSDs in there, which would imply that it would appear as four separate NVMe devices. This is no big deal for enterprise data applications that can be pointed at multiple physical devices, but that 10 GB/s does start to make more sense (as a combined total) as we know of no single SSD controller capable of that sort of throughput. It took four Intel SSD 750's for us to reach that same 10 GB/s figure, so it stands to reason that Seagate would use that same trick, only with M.2 SSDs they can fit everything onto a single slot card.
That's all we have on this release so far, but we may see some real product pics sneak out of the Open Compute Project Summit, running over the next couple of days.

10GBps of Non-Volatile Memory Express based storage from Seagate
Subject: General Tech | March 8, 2016 - 01:23 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: Seagate, PCIe SSD, NVMe
Seagate is rightfully bragging about their new PCIe SSD line up, the fastest currently available. The drives come in two types, a 16 lane and an 8 lane model, using a standard PCIe interface. The 16 lane version provides the full theoretical speed of 10GBps while the 8 lane model is less expensive and offers a mere 6.7GBps of throughput. These drives are designed for enterprise usage but if you can afford the steep price tag which will come with these drives you could certainly using them for an impressive upgrade. Check out more at The Inquirer.
"SEAGATE HAS announced what the firm claims will be the world's fastest solid state drive (SSD). The 10GBps device is already production-ready and has been built to Open Compute Project (OCP) specifications, making it suitable for hyperscale data centres."

Seagate Breaks into Helium Market with 10TB Enterprise Capacity Hard Drive
Subject: Storage | January 13, 2016 - 02:38 PM | Allyn Malventano
Tagged: Seagate, helium, hdd, enterprise, 3.5, 10TB
Seagate updated their Enterprise Capacity line of HDDs this morning with a monster of a 10TB unit:
To achieve this capacity, Seagate switched over to a sealed, Helium filled design (similar to what HGST has been doing for a few years now). Since filling the space of a HDD with Helium helps reduce head flutter and platter thickness, Seagate was able to fit seven platters into a standard 3.5" housing. As an additional note, this drive uses the same PMR (Perpendicular Magnetic Recording) as other recent generation units, and not the SMR (Shingled) employed in their recent 8TB Archive HDD. PMR is a good thing here, as it enables random write access without the performance penalty incurred when attempting the same on an SMR drive.
The Helium filling pushes the MTBF up to 2.5 million hours. Unfortunately the release was light on the other details, and we do not have pricing as of yet, but we will certainly be keeping an eye on this one. Seagate states they are 'shipping to select customers', but given that those customers are ordering by the truckload, it may be some time before we see them in the OEM aftermarket channels.

Seagate Pushes in to 8TB Territory with New Enterprise HDD Models
Subject: Storage | September 1, 2015 - 08:00 AM | Allyn Malventano
Tagged: Seagate, hdd, Enterprise NAS, Enterprise Capacity 3.5, 8TB
Just when we were starting to get comfortable with the thought of 6TB hard drives, Seagate goes and announces their lineup of 8TB HDDs:
Now before you get too excited about throwing one of these into your desktop, realize that these models are meant for enterprise and larger NAS environments:
As you can see from the above chart, Seagate will be moving to 8TB maximum capacities on their 'Enterprise NAS' and 'Enterprise Capacity 3.5' models, which are meant for larger storage deployments.
Home and small business users opting to go with Seagate for their storage will remain limited to 4TB per drive for the time being.
For those curious about Kinetic, this is Seagate's push to connect arrays of drives via standard Ethernet, which would allow specialized storage applications to speak directly to the raw storage via standard network gear. Kinetic HDDs are currently limited to 4TB, with 8TB planned this coming January.
Seagate's full press blast appears after the break.
Seagate joins the HPC super team
Subject: General Tech | July 13, 2015 - 01:31 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: Seagate, IBM, HPC, hp
IBM will be making its Spectrum Scale software available on Seagate's ClusterStore HPC products, which are due out towards the end of the year. This marks a turning point in Seagate's HPC business as previously their products were only useful to a small group of companies which used the Lustre file system, moving to IBM's product grows the available pool of customers significantly. HP will be adding their Apollo software suite into the deal making this even more attractive for potential clients. As The Inquirer points out, this is part of the shift of international companies moving their data out of US borders, good news for ISPs and data providers in the rest of the world but not such good news for those looking for employment in the industry within the USA.
"SEAGATE HAS JOINED FORCES with HP and IBM in a bid to boost its position in the high-performance computing (HPC) market."

Seagate and Micron become super best friends
Subject: Storage | February 13, 2015 - 02:47 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: Seagate, micron
The large storage companies have been teaming up for a while now, not simply through mergers and takeovers but also joint ventures between those who were once competitors. It is debatable if consumers will see much cost benefit from this cooperation but at least the products do seem to improve as specialties are combined. In this particular case we will see the traditionally disk based Seagate working with the flash memory maker Micron develop SAS products as well as SSDs for Enterprise customers. The idea of Serial attached SCSI SSDs is certainly interesting but in the current business environment you have to wonder how many companies will have the budget to invest in large scale migrations to flash based storage. It is far more likely this will bring new hybrid storage servers to the market, with SSDs in the front to provide bandwidth to frequently accessed data with HDD behind them for backups and cold storage. You can get a quick refresher on the other companies which have started cooperative ventures in the article at The Inquirer.
"SEAGATE AND MICRON have announced that they will join forces to work on projects together over a number of years."

Diabetes Health Center
Successful Dieting Diabetics Do Well
Nov. 9, 2000 -- People with type 2 diabetes who set out to -- and actually do -- shed unwanted pounds may add years to their lives.
In a new 12-year study of almost 5,000 overweight people with type 2 -- or adult-onset -- diabetes, those who went on diets and lost weight were 25% less likely to die of any cause during the study period than their nondieting counterparts. That's according to the study in the October issue of the journal Diabetes Care.
About two-thirds of the nearly 15 million people with type 2 diabetes are overweight, according to the American Diabetes Association. This form of the disease occurs when a person does not produce enough of the hormone insulin or when their body does not use it properly. The body uses insulin to help sugar in the blood enter into cells where it's used as fuel for the body.
Weight loss is considered the cornerstone of treatment in people with type 2 diabetes because it allows the body to better use insulin and thus lowers blood sugar. Elevated levels of blood sugar are responsible for many of the devastating side effects of diabetes, such as blindness, kidney disease, limb amputation, heart attack, and stroke.
The new study only looked at intentional weight loss since unplanned weight loss is often a symptom of a more severe disease or a sign of deteriorating health.
While more studies are needed to confirm the new findings, lead researcher David F. Williamson, PhD, of the division of diabetes translation at the CDC, concludes that intentional weight loss results in "substantial" decreases in death and disease among this group.
Study participants who shed weight lost more than 20 pounds. But there were no quick fixes, since many of them took more than a year to drop the weight.
Gerald Bernstein, MD, past president of the American Diabetic Association, says that obesity, physical inactivity, and advancing age can all aggravate type 2 diabetes. The new findings make sense, says Bernstein, who also has a private practice in New York.
When someone loses weight, insulin produced by the body is allowed to do what it's supposed to do, and the more physically active a person is, the better the insulin works, says Bernstein, who also is an associate professor of medicine at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine.

THE OPPORTUNITY: Provide a scalable mobile health product to enhance community-based efforts to improve maternal and child health
THE PROJECT: The growing ubiquity of mobile phones in the developing world provides opportunity for improving health outcomes in rural areas. Dimagi, a Charlestown, MA-based technology company, has developed an open source mobile and cloud-based platform, CommCare, which goes beyond the scope of most mobile health technologies to provide comprehensive support for health workers in addition to data collection. CommCare allows any community health organization to quickly create and customize health applications and download them onto the phones of community health workers for free use. These applications use multimedia prompts that deliver maternal health education to new mothers, tailored to literacy level and local dialect. DIV's $100,000 contribution to Dimagi has catalyzed the global deployment of CommCare, allowing the technology to be refined for use in 10 countries across the globe and piloted with local implementing partners mobilizing more than $1.5 million in investments directly in CommCare evaluation and scale up over next two years. In addition, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation chose CommCare for their $100 million effort in Bihar.
THE RESULTS: Preliminary calculations indicate that the total cost of ownership for CommCare is $86 per community health worker per year. This cost can be shared by governments, external donors, NGO, or others. The Government of India is currently providing incentives that alone can amount to over $1,000 per health worker per year.
