Anyone know why CYMI is dropping so fast?
Its nice that the PUMPER is GONE. Stay gone pumper. NOBODY needs that. CYMI should have never been that high in the first place. The sector is getting hit and CYMI should outperform the sector on the way down and it has. CYMI has been a big letdown on the long side over the years. Fundamentals have gone to S_____it with just .08 EPS for this quarter. Analysts looking for 1.91 for 2013 which is a big increase over 2012 but in the scheme of things, $1.91 isn't anything to write home about either because CYMI used to earn much more than that when the stock was in the mid 40's. Technically, broke the 200 day and with all 3 moving averages pointing lower, any tries on the long side have to be quick/swift with the sell button as a bounce doesn't look like it would have that much going for it. On the P&F an uptrend that was established in 2011 is now broken with another triple bottom breakdown on the 1X3 and while CYMI has held its own on previous triple bottom breakdowns this time looks different since the uptrend has been taken out.

A sometimes stinging Venice Biennale
Venice, Italy — Every two years, this ancient and liquidy city is deluged by the art world, making it seem more unreal than it already is. Curators, collectors, critics and artists cram onto the Venetian islands for a three-day preview of what is effectively the Olympics of art, the Venice Biennale.
Attired like something out of "The Talented Mr. Ripley" – tailored and European and with all of the ingratiating and insinuating implied by that reference – many of the well-heeled dash like 8-year-olds sprinting for Space Mountain when the gates open each day. »Read Full Blog Post(1)

Early Music Now program explores clarinet's evolution
Early Music Now went a little later than usual in its season-opening concert Saturday evening.
The cutoff for "early music" performers falls very roughly around 1800, but clarinetist Eric Hoeprich's selections at Wisconsin Lutheran College pushed well into the 19th century to show the evolution of his instrument. »Read Full Article(1)

Chapter 1.
Gneiss Town
Theme Music
Welcome to the Orre region! This is where you'll be starting your journey towards the Orre League which will be filled with excitement among other things! So, what is there to do? Well, I'll tell you. But before that, let's have a little description so that you know fully where you are.
Do you recognize this place? It wouldn't surprise me. You know why? That is because this used to be the so called "Pokémon HQ" once. Here, Professor Krane and his team of scientists studied the beings known as Shadow Pokémon to help further research. What is a Shadow Pokémon? Well, they are basically Pokémon that has gotten their hearts closed by science. They are stronger, more violent and very, VERY aggressive. Luckily, the crisis involving these things has long been averted. As Orre gained a better economy, more and more cities expanded as you would imagine, Gneiss Town was one of the first to do this. New houses were built on the hills and close to the forests as more and more people moved in. Eventually, the place where Shadow Pokémon were once researched and purified has now become a rural town on the countryside. Many people live simple lives here and the main line of work is agriculture. Farms are found here and there, so you should expect to see many Pokémon usually found in such environments like Tauros or Miltank. The people here are very friendly as well, so I'm sure that they don't mind somebody popping in for a short visit!
What? You want me to shut up and get on with it? Fine, fine…
The Pokémon HQ has now been turned into "Gneiss Lab" but not much has changed. The professor this time around isn't Krane, instead his son Richard – or Rich if you'd like to annoy him - has taken the place of the region's professor. Richard is much like his father, at least in when it comes to looks. Both Krane and Richard share that unkempt, brown hair as well as a somewhat terrible fashion-sense. The new professor sports the exact same green sweater with a white lab-coat and beige pants as his father did. For some reason though, Richard likes to go barefoot in the most absurd places and he will most likely greet you without his shoes on. However, while Krane was passionate and interested in his work, his son is more laid back and lazy about it. Sometimes it might even seem like his father's work bores him. Richard will give you the things necessary for your journey. You will receive the following from him:
A Starter Pokémon
Five PokéBalls
A Trainer Card
Three Potions
Three Full Heals
And because of certain circumstances, Ellsworth Jimmerson will receive a bottle of Sinnoh Syrup – the best syrup in existence!
Now for some important notes:
The P*DA:
First off, what is a P*DA? Well, it's kinda like the Orre version of a PokéDex. Except it has much more features, like an email function and a phone function. It has three voice-modes for identifying Pokémon. These are: Morgan Freeman, GlaDOS and Red. The Red-option is also known as "Silent Mode". Fun fact, the newest model is called "P*DA Solid" and comes in four different colors – you get to choose which one – and they are: Jet Black, Darumaka Red, Turquoise and Snake Green.
Items are quite important here as they may help you in various situations. How do you acquire more items than you've already got? Well there are a few ways:
By defeating Gym Leaders or Important Trainers,
By participating in various events,
And if I think that you've deserved it.
You must receive your Starter and items from Professor Richard.
You may not interact with other players; however you may interact with your own neatly crafted NPCs.
You can't go to the next area yet, but you may explore Gneiss Town.
Believe it or not, there are actually some Pokémon here, and you may catch as many as you like (as long as your budget can afford it, that is).
There is no PokéMart here, so you can't buy anything really. However, Professor Richard will gladly heal your Pokémon, should you need to.
Wild Pokémon
Level: 8
Moves: Scratch | Growl
Rarity: Common
When Gneiss Town was first founded, Meowths were a rare sight to behold. They were usually found only in the care of farmers or other Trainers. However, due to lots of breeding, this feline Pokémon can now be commonly found about everywhere.
Level: 8
Moves: Gust | Growl | Sand Attack
Rarity: Common
Pidgey is one of the migrating Bird-Pokémon who first resided in Orre and chose to stay. As you might imagine, they are very commonly seen flying around in search for food or other things. They are quite docile, but may be easily frightened at some times.
Level: 8
Moves: Gust
Rarity: Uncommon
Since the beginning of Gneiss Town's history, farmers have usually caught Combees to help with honey-making. They are usually found buzzing around certain farms, but they may also occur in the wild. However, as most wild Combees here are without a queen, they are not as aggressive or violent as when they have a Vespiquen to protect.
Level: 11
Moves: Scratch | Growl | Assist | Hone Claws
Rarity: Rare
Another feline Pokémon found near the farms, however this one is more prone to steal than a Meowth. As Meowths only take shiny things, Purrloin takes about anything it can find lying about. However, they are pretty clever, so if you fail to capture one, you will probably only be able to find two more.
Level: 11
Moves: Tackle | Tail Whip | Growl | Work Up
Rarity: Rare
This cute kitty is a very shy one, thus it almost always hides from humans, you'd be lucky to find more than two of them in a row. But they usually seem to have a strong like for milk, and can thus mostly be found around Miltanks, IF, you are lucky enough to find one.
Level: 13
Moves: Pluck | Growl | Twister | Sand Attack
Rarity: Very Rare
Do not be fooled by the docile nature of its pre-evolution, Pidgeottos here are very, VERY aggressive. Usually being flock-leaders, they tend to be very protective of certain areas, and if you walk into them – accidentally or intentionally – this particular Normal/Flying-type will not hesitate to come at you with everything it's got. If you fail to capture the first one you find, don't count on finding any more of them.

Column as I see 'em …
It was the nightmare everyone talks about that finally came true.
A man is trapped inside his burning vehicle Friday on Versailles Road and, of course, a train blocks the crossing, delaying a full-throated response from first responders desperate to come to his rescue.
As we reported the tragedy on our website and social media platforms, outrage grew as people took to their Facebook pages to complain about the trains and demand that something be done.
But what?
I don't normally offer things to the news, but with this being the 15th anniversary of the attack I felt that there needs to be something in the paper to help our citizens remember this horrendous attack against America on our homeland.
Before having children, I vowed never to become "that mom," but sometime in the past 13 years I have molded into her.
I realized that I had become "that mom" Thursday afternoon, when I opted to buy my son boxer shorts rather than tackle the seemingly endless pile of laundry that a family of five acquires during the week.
After a brief (pun intended) stop at Walmart, I decided the best course of action regarding dinner was the good ole standby — Mickey D's.
The federal government has made it easier to file the Free Application for Federal Student Aid.
If you have gone to college or have had a child go, chances are you've filled out the FAFSA.
Changes to this form announced by the Obama administration in 2015 are about to go into effect for the 2017-2018 school year.
What a beautiful weekend.
After two months of basically no weekend, I took total advantage of this last one. I went to yard sales and found a lawn tractor that is practically brand new.
The storm that blew through was fast and furious and I was already done with outside chores, because I'm a weather addict. Sunday was even better.
The Anderson County Extension Office in conjunction with the Kentucky Department of Agriculture will hold a pesticide rinse and return program at the Anderson County Extension office on Sept 19 from 9 a.m. to noon.
All farmers are encouraged to bring in empty pesticide containers for recycling.
Due to the materials previously held by these pesticide containers they cannot be recycled with your ordinary household plastics. This program allows for the proper recycling of these pesticide containers.
What in the world are they thinking?
The key word is "thinking." Or more specifically, the lack of thinking by bench-warming millionaire Colin Kaepernick and his misguided minions.
If you don't know about Ol' Colin's antics, you have undoubtedly been putting on your best imitation of Rip Van Winkle or you have been mountain climbing in Tibet.
Aaron Hume took first place overall in the Trooper Eric Chrisman Memorial 5K Run/Walk hosted by Christian Academy of Lawrenceburg on Saturday.
Hume covered the 3.1 mile course in 18:56.7 as runners battled a steady ran that began just after the race started. Hume finished about 9 seconds ahead of Andrew Hockensmith, who completed the race in 19:05.5. Both runners were in the 19-29 age group.

Gouging occurs when the man is SLAMMING his cock in a woman's pussy HELLA FAST and HARD from behind, while the woman is playing with her clit from beneath and the guy misses the pussy and her fingernails GOUGE the head of his cock hella bad.
After he missed her pussy, her fingernails had created deep gouging to the head of his cock. He had three, deep gouges about two inches long, from the tip , running down the entire length of the head of his cock, ending just under the rim.

Featured Golf News
Giving Fore Charity
It is estimated that the amount of charitable giving attributed to golf in the U.S. in 2005 was $3.5 billion. This is according to a study done by the National Golf Foundation. To understand this piece of the golf pie it is important to note that the U.S. golf economy accounted for $76 billion worth of goods and services that year. The same report estimated that golf generated a total economic impact of $195 billion in 2005 and created approximately 2 million jobs with a wage income of $61 billion.
We have long known that professional tournaments generate many millions of dollars each year for the charities they support and, to some extent, that has been quantified. The PGA Tour has raised over $1.2 billion for charities since 1938.
A majority of dollars generated each year are done by small and local, one-day fundraising events run by volunteers, with contributions by facility owners and staffs, and supported by local companies and individuals. The impact is significant and the charities range from the SPCA saving animals, to mentally and physically disabled children, to future growth and education for young people, to helping support America's troops.
It is estimated that over 140,000 charitable golf outings are held annually in the United States, with over 15 million total participants. The collective revenue generated for these charities exceeds $2.9 billion.
National charitable organizations, such as the American Cancer Society, United Way and Special Olympics regularly use golf to raise money for their respective causes. These events are often large and well attended and typically can raise anywhere from $25,000 per outing to as much as several hundred thousand dollars. But these events don't happen on their own. It takes dedicated individuals, mostly volunteers and board members who are willing to go out and generate interest and sponsors.
One example of a PGA Tour event and the magnitude of its charitable giving is the Wachovia Championship. In its first five years, the Wachovia Championship has donated over $7.5 million to Teach for America and other charities. In 2007 the charity contribution was $1.95 million. Teach for America is the national corps of top college graduates who commit two years to teach in under-resourced public schools and become lifelong leaders in the pursuit of educational equity.
"One of this tournament's goals is to assist Teach for America reach its dream that all children receive a quality education," said Wachovia Tournament Chairman Mac Everett. Today, more than 5,000 Teach for America corps members are reaching nearly 444,000 students in 26 urban and rural regions nationwide, while more than 12,000 alumni are working in education, policy, law, medicine and other professional sectors to effect the broader changes needed to bring about educational equity in our country.
Similarly, other tours like the Nationwide, LPGA and the Champions all raise money for charities. The inaugural Nationwide Children's Hospital Invitational in July 2007 at the Ohio State University Golf Club raised $482,600 for organizations in central Ohio. The total marked the largest charitable donation raised by a first-year Nationwide Tour event in the Tour's 18-year history.
One of the reasons golf fundraisers have become so popular is that it allows an individual or a company to multitask. They get to play golf, network with clients and co-workers and support a worthy charity, all at the same time. When asked what has been the relationship between golf and the USO and why they recently decided to hold a tournament this May in Miami Florida this is what Henry D. Wolfgang, the Chief Development Officer at the USO, had to say:
"We've held golf tournaments in the past and have a wonderful relationship with many PGA players through USO's Operation Links, which takes players to visit America's troops deployed overseas. Our objectives are to continue to build strong relationships and generate support throughout South Florida for USO programs, which bring a touch of home to America's men and women in uniform wherever they serve.
"Mr. Leonel R. "Leo" Roche, a member of the USO World Board of Governors, was instrumental in making this tournament a reality. Furthermore, it is the steadfast support and dedication of our board, corporate partners, volunteers and our donors across America that enable the USO to provide our unique and vital programs and services to the nation's troops and their families as we have for the past 67 years. Until every one comes home."
Golf has always been referred to as a gentleman's sport. Gentlemen are known to give, and golf has become a good way to give back to those who need help. No matter who or where they may be, it is always good to walk the green for a worthy cause.

In April I mailed in a rebate request for a garden hose I had purchased locally.
I received a postcard stating that I had forgotten to send in the receipt and had a couple of weeks to return it with the postcard attached. I was lucky to find the receipt quickly. It cost two stamps and less than 10 minutes altogether to get the $10 rebate.
Did you know that many rebates go unclaimed? Consumers don't complete the forms either on-line or through the mail. Others throw away the box with the bar code on it.
My story is about where I went to high school. To visit this, we have to go back to 1951, my first year in high school.
It was September 1951 when the black high school students who lived in the city limits of Lawrenceburg were put on a school bus and transported to Lincoln Institute High School, located in Lincoln Ridge, about two miles from Simpsonville.
Lincoln opened its doors in 1912; we have just finished 100 years. All black people who got out of high school before 1962 finished at Lincoln Institute, and the Lock Road kids went to Simmons in Versailles.
Look closely at where the sidewalk ends.
If you're like me, you usually don't think about the short drop where the concrete curb's lip meets the street.
For Anderson County residents like Lovada Melser, sometimes you're forced to think of nothing else.
Melser, who lives in one of the Breckenridge Estates apartments off of US 62, describes herself as an independent woman.
It bothers her to have to ask people for help, she said.
Have you seen latest television series about the Hatfields and McCoys?
If not, don't bother searching it out in reruns because a battle here between city and county government is remarkably entertaining — even without all the bloodshed.
For our purposes, we'll make the fiscal court the County Hatfields and the city council the City McCoys. (You'll find out why shortly.)
Like the famous families, the County Hatfields and City McCoys have been locked in battle for years, and no one is absolutely certain exactly what caused the ruckus.
Scenes from the week in sports in Anderson County.
From staff reports
The 140th annual Lawrenceburg Fair and Horse Show will begin its week of horse shows, pageants and carnival rides this Saturday, June 23 with the gates opening at noon at the fairgrounds.
The Fair and Horse Show, set to run June 23 through June 30, features a variety of entertainment, competition and attractions, including a few new events.
The Fair and Horse Show has one of the largest outdoor saddle horse shows in the world, offering saddlebreds, miniature horses, hackneys and roadsters.

Recycling efforts in Anderson County will take a mighty leap forward this fall, thanks to a state grant and the efforts of the Anderson County Environmental Committee.
The state announced last week that the county will receive a $125,291 grant, enough to fuel plans the committee has worked on since it was formed last April by the Anderson County Fiscal Court.
County officials — including Anderson County's district and circuit court judges — might find themselves circling Main Street in the weeks to come to find a parking spot close to the courthouse.
County Judge-Executive John Wayne Conway recently received a letter from the city council to remove the county's reserved parking signs on Ollie Bowen Street.
The same reserved parking signs, city council member Ken Evans said, that were never authorized by the city to be placed.
If worshippers feel small when they walk into Goshen Baptist Church, that's just fine with Pastor Fred Knickerbocker.
They are supposed to, thanks to a new steeple that was erected atop the church last Friday morning.
Knickerbocker said the steeple, which is graced at the top with a gold cross, makes people feel small by design, but not in a negative way.
"The closer [the steeple] gets to Heaven, the smaller it gets," said Knickerbocker, who has said grace since 1977 over what is believed to be Anderson County's oldest church.
A watchdog group claims that a local nursing home is administering antipsychotic drugs to residents without a psychosis or related condition in an effort to keep staffing costs down.
Kentuckians for Nursing Home Reform cites a nationwide study by the federal government that reveals nearly 1-in-5 residents at Heritage Hall without psychosis or related condition received antipsychotic drugs.
The study was conducted by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services and released by last month by The Boston Globe.

As of the time of this posting, the perpetrators of today's Mumbai attacks that killed at least 80 people have not been identified. We know that firearms, and possibly explosives, were used in at least 8 locations to simultaneously and intentionally attack unarmed civilians, and that U.S. and British citizens were specifically targeted.
I use this case to again repeat my wager, that the unknown perpetrators of this attack (like so many others) will, upon investigation, turn out to be Muslims. This, in a country in which the majority religion is Hindu, and where Muslims make up approximately just 13% of the population.
Of course, when the perpetrators are known, Muslims and their apologists will repeat their claims that their religious affilation is incidental, that it was just as likely that they could have been Christians, or Jews, or Hindus.
In 1980, Paul Ehrlich claimed that the world was on the brink of collapse in his book "The Population Bomb". Julian Simon disagreed. They agreed to wager on the future price of five metals on the commodity market. Ehrlich wagered that the price would skyrocket due to human overconsumption. The wager was subsequently named, unimaginatively enough, The Simon-Ehrlich Wager. (In the event, the price of metals did not increase dramatically, and Simon won the bet in 1990).
The point of the Simon-Ehrlich Wager is to reward predictive models that are accurate, and punish predictive models that are inaccurate. This is a mechanism to stem a relentless barrage of anti-factual rhetoric, of which there is no short supply when it comes to Islam.
If the defenders of Islamic terrorism believe their own lies, there is a tremendous opportunity for them here. If terrorists appear randomly within the population, irrespective of religious affiliation, there is an 87% chance that the terrorists will turn out to be Hindu, Christian, or Jewish. If the defenders of Islamic terrorism believe their own lies, they can point out the unwarranted "prejudice" of those who "erroneously" claim that there is a link between terrorism and Islam. And they can make a few bucks in the process.
If the defenders of Islamic terrorism believe their own lies, they will put their money where their well-funded mouths are.
Hello? Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR)? Muslim Public Affairs Council (MPAC)? Anyone? And if they are too slow to respond, and the terrorists are (as they inevitably will be) identified as Muslims, not to worry. There will be more incidents in the future where the wager can be repeated.
Ad nauseum.

Oh snap! In the time it takes to write the posting, the terrorists have tentatively been identified.

Back Seat - Poem by albot george
I don't know how you could have drove home
Without stopping for a kiss, four times
I wanted to pullynn but no way, away with the fairies
So I went and had a coffee, that one near "ibis"
Have you ever been to that one?
Just to think how nice it was to see you today
Even though it would have been wonderful
To have spent the evening together
I do understand why we didn't;
And when or if we do have an afternoon
Again together it's going to be sandwich
And coffee
I'm going to miss you tonight
No I'm already missing you
I have just started going
over what we did last time
and what I was going to do to this time
I wish you could keep up (old hag"
It a bit strange righting to you tonight
Can still smell you and I would have loved
To have been naked with you, just the once
But I hope you don't fell guilty
Of the little bit of time we spent together today
It and you was beautiful, nothing change
It's always the first time with you
Night night babe
All of you

The Motion/Captured Review: "The Escapist"
Thrillers built around secrets can be tricky things.
For one thing, it sort of creates a situation where anyone who tells you that the film is built around a secret is automatically a prick, since the moment you know there's a secret, you start looking for the secret or trying to get ahead of it, and it can detach you from the narrative you're watching as you get all hung up on the structure of the script.
But then there's also the fact that films built around secrets are rarely movies you rewatch, because there's nothing to them once you know what the secret is. Filmmakers are willing to sacrifice authentic behavior and internal character logic to their twists, and the more you watch some of these films, the more the inconsistencies stand out.
So as I watched Rupert Wyatt's debut feature, "The Escapist," there came a point where I realized that it was going to be a film built around a twist or a secret or a big reveal, I started to get worried. It doesn't help that it's a prison film, a genre that doesn't seem terribly versatile, but "The Escapist" is more than the sum of its parts. Although I wouldn't want to overhype it, I would describe it as a solid picture with moments that deliver such a genuine charge that it bumps the film up a notch. The performances from the ensemble cast are all solid and engaging, and in particular, Brian Cox delivers as a lead, offering up a sympathetic, roundly-imagined characterization as Frank Perry, the man with the plan.
[more after the jump]
The film jumps forward and backward in time as we watch a prison escape in progress and then also watch the days leading up to the escape, as the inmates involved all come together to plan the attempt. At the same time, new fish Lacey (Dominic Cooper) is struggling to survive his first few days in the joint, and slowly coming to the realization that if he doesn't join Frank and the others when they escape, he may be leaving in a box thanks to Rizza (Damien Lewis), the con who runs the prison.
Everyone's playing a familiar type here, but it's a good cast and they find ways to imbue these characters with just enough life and quirk to make them feel fresh. Joseph Fiennes is particularly good as the locksmith/boxer Lenny Drake, integral to the plan and sort of scary. And Steven Mackintosh, one of those guys that English viewers have seen in about 4000 movies and TV shows, plays Rizza's brother Tony, a shambling addict who uses his big brother as the impending threat that allows him to get away with whatever he wants. Lewis plays his menace with a smile, and it's subtle, never tipping into a stereotypical movie bad guy, as it so easily could.
What sets it all in motion is a letter from home for Frank. He learns that his daughter, who he hasn't seen for most of her teenage years, has become addicted to drugs, and he's determined to get out so he can help her. Cox really sells it, too, underplaying his father's fury admirably, but always keeping it close to the surface. His broken heart is the story's engine, and that's what keeps it from just being an escape movie.
And, yes... as I said... there's a twist. A secret. A surprise. And the reason it's not a spoiler to say that is because once the twist is revealed, it's not the point of the film. By keeping the focus on the humanity, Rupert Wyatt makes a strong debut as a writer/director here, and his film's got a great sense of low-budget style.

Welcome to Vancouver Naturopathic Clinic
We are the longest practicing naturopathic clinic in Vancouver. Dr. Stefan Kuprowsky has been the Vancouver Naturopathic Clinic director since 1985. Dr. Lorne Swetlikoff ran the clinic from 1995 to 2007. Dr. Kuprowsky returned to this clinic in the fall of 2007. We focus on integrating the best of traditional naturopathic healing medicine with the latest state-of-the-art Biological Medicine from Germany and Europe.
One of the most important things Dr. Kuprowsky has learned in over 23 years of practice and treating over 20,000 patients is how much the mind and body are inter-connected. In most people, the mind through the impact of stress affects how the body functions. Similiarily, the health of the body can affect the mind and psychological balance. Real healing occurs when we are able to optimize and balance both our physical and psychological health. Dr. Kuprowsky brings years of wisdom and experience to helping people come to true healing in their bodies, mind and spirits.
Naturopathic Medicine is a distinct healing science and philosophy that blends traditional natural therapies with current advances in the study of human health. It is a system of primary health care that uses natural methods and substances to support and stimulate the body's inherent self-healing process.
The goal of naturopathic practice is to treat any underlying disorders and to restore normal body function by enhancing the body's own healing abilities. The Naturopathic Doctor views symptoms of disease as warning signals of improper functioning of the body and unfavourable lifestyle habits. Knowing this, you can appreciate why treatments are individualized to each person.

Samsung shows interest in Apple's deal with HTC
0. phoneArena 17 Nov 2012, 00:10 posted on
Nearly a week after the surprising announcement that Apple and HTC had agreed to a ten year licensing agreement that put a halt to all patent litigation between the two, Korean manufacturer Samsung asked a court to order Apple to turn over a copy of the agreement...
This is a discussion for a news. To read the whole news, click here
1. mercorp (Posts: 1027; Member since: 28 Jan 2012)
Why are they backtracking their words about fighting with apple?
Afraid that they will lose apple's demand for parts?

naa its not about coward ness here.....seems more like "doing the right thing" here bro.........
26. Droid_X_Doug (Posts: 5993; Member since: 22 Dec 2010)
I doubt Sammy is looking for a licensing opportunity. More like using Apple's refusal to license the untouchable patents as a way to underscore how unreasonable Apple is.
What will be more interesting would be to see the details of the Apple-MS and Apple-Nokia cross licensing agreements. I suspect Apple's untouchable patents are included in those agreements, which would further undermine Apple's argument that they don't license their untouchable patents.
As I posted in an earlier article, stock up on popcorn and beer, 'cause this little pissing match ain't over yet. Nothing like both companies going thermo-nuclear on the other.
3. Sniggly (Posts: 7305; Member since: 05 Dec 2009)
Actually, it sounds like they want legal ammo to throw in Apple's face when the appeals begin.
5. blackspot (Posts: 102; Member since: 14 Nov 2012)
Yeah, I don't see any end to this Apple/ Samsung dispute anytime soon. Honestly, I'm getting kind of tired of it.
8. Mxyzptlk (Posts: 13068; Member since: 21 Apr 2012)
They should go the easy route and just do a licensing agreement. If you're going to copy someone then you should pony up the fees and dues.

And how much are Apple paying LG for the Prada?
12. SGSatlantis (Posts: 226; Member since: 20 Jul 2011)
Hehe, nice one:)
19. andro. (Posts: 1998; Member since: 16 Sep 2011)
Whoooa calm down!!! Don't bring up the LG Prada lol,i was banned for a week before for saying the Prada was unveiled to the world a couple of months before iphone. Despite quoting records from wiki etc showing this historically is the case the moderator insisted quite angrily that "Lg Prada was announced AFTER the iphone"
All that aside this patent war is getting beyond the ridiculous but unfortunately Apple opened a can of worms when they really should have just got the head down and tried to compete like everyone else
25. Aeires (unregistered)
That's messed up. Even if you were wrong, if they banned people for posting comments for being wrong, there'd be no one left here to comment.

LG Prada the REAL Jesus phone of 2007.
15. someones4 (Posts: 625; Member since: 16 Sep 2012)
Give it a rest. Samsung will do no such thing.
36. joey_sfb (Posts: 5753; Member since: 29 Mar 2012)
You might as well ask apple to pay for your food and housing as you are doing their promotion full time.
20. OptimusOne (Posts: 694; Member since: 22 May 2012)
actually? WHY CAN'T EVERYONE LIVE IN PEACE AND STOP FIGHTING?
32. blackspot (Posts: 102; Member since: 14 Nov 2012)
Unfortunately, that's just human nature.
34. someones4 (Posts: 625; Member since: 16 Sep 2012)
Well, first off, it's not your billions of dollars at stake.
35. blackspot (Posts: 102; Member since: 14 Nov 2012)
Yeah, but Apple's actions have been speaking louder than their products as of late.
37. someones4 (Posts: 625; Member since: 16 Sep 2012)
owh... thought you are asking samsung to quit the bttle
39. xtremesv (Posts: 297; Member since: 21 Oct 2011)
Same thought.
21. taz89 (Posts: 2014; Member since: 03 May 2011)
They are not back peddling far from it. They want to know the deal so they can use it against them in court.. This article tries to portray that Samsung is looking for deal but if you tread other articles you will know they are not
38. tedkord (Posts: 11706; Member since: 17 Jun 2009)
If you read other articles, you will know that during negotiations, Apple offered to pay one tenth of one cent per device for actual tech thata phone won't work without, but demanded in excess of $20 per device for shapes and colors.
It didn't matter what Samsung did, Apple had no intention of licensing anything, but rather intended to use their spurious patents to ban their biggest competitor.
30. -box- (Posts: 3991; Member since: 04 Jan 2012)
It's a.good idea. If apple is OK with HTC paying (for example) $5 per handset for all patents, Samsung could use that as a counter to the amount stated per handset during their trial with apple. That would be "fair and reasonable" (if they don't get the whole verdict tossed).
4. MC1123 (Posts: 1255; Member since: 12 Nov 2012)
sneaky samsung...sneaky! :P
6. mercorp (Posts: 1027; Member since: 28 Jan 2012)

7. ElektronicGeek91 (Posts: 105; Member since: 26 Sep 2012)
I thought this article was about Samsung making an agreement with Apple.....phew. I was going to be PISSED!
16. someones4 (Posts: 625; Member since: 16 Sep 2012)
Yeah. the title was really misleading. apparently, the deal is just a guideline for Samsung on what NOT to do.

HTC not pay to Apple, consumer who buy HTC product who pays.
Like what HTC ans Samdung doing when pay microsoft $5-15. they never pay microsoft. but we are who buy their product.
18. JGuinan007 (Posts: 684; Member since: 19 May 2011)
Are you saying that since HTC has to pay Apple $20 for every android phone it sells HTC is then going to raise the price of it's phones by $20 to cover that and that we as customers of HTC are really the ones paying Apple? Well if thats the case I refuse to buy HTC and will only buy Samsung, I refuse to give money to Apple.
24. mayur007 (Posts: 565; Member since: 10 Apr 2012)
yes it happens in every kind of product
Not just a phone other products too , not on patent but on others like advertisment,
If they started paying from there pockets then how they are gng to earn much
they charge everytime, thats include in there profit margin ...
22. LostInTheRed (Posts: 85; Member since: 03 May 2012)
Wait a second! Wasn't the "Bounce Back" or "Rubberbanding" patent INVALIDATED by the patent office? If it was, how are they able to enforce a license agreement and ask for money? Someone clear this up for me please.
23. mayur007 (Posts: 565; Member since: 10 Apr 2012)
i likes the approach of SS , but i didnt like the approach of Apple at all ,
What i think is SS wont make a deal bcoz in previous article SS said that they are preparing for war.
Better have patent exchange system , choose innovation not law suite.
33. roscuthiii (Posts: 2217; Member since: 18 Jul 2010)
Live by the pen, die by the pen... Man, dying by pen really does seem to take forever!
Someone please just drop down the Thunderdome and bust out the swords to usher all this along.
40. rusticguy (Posts: 2828; Member since: 11 Aug 2012)
And Samsung gets the right to see the details of the deal. Surprising PA didn't report this .... not sure why though :)

"Good story, well read"
Linda Emond IS Temperance Brennan for me. She brings the stories to life in a fantastic way, her voice hinting at the years of experience the character has. Kathy Reichs provides an excellent storyline that is imperative for anyone who buys into "the expert said so" mentality. Wearing a white coat does not make an expert. I appreciate the distinctions made in this book.
"My First Kathy Reichs was a Real Winner"
This was first "Bones" book. I'm a big Bones fan and thought I'd try my hand at a Kathy Reichs novel. I really enjoyed this one. At one point in the story, she and Ryan was in the Chicago area and I know that area well, so it was easy to picture them in the locations mentioned. When I realized there were Book 2, Book 8, Book 11 I thought I was a dope for reading them out of sequence, but soon realized it wasn't going to matter much. I enjoy the depth of details and descriptions.
I can't answer this question. I'm eclectic in music, books, movies. I don't like to make comparisons like this.
At first Linda Emond's narrative was hard to listen to and I had to start over a couple of times, but once I turned down my headphones a little and made some other tonal adjustments I didn't have any problems and really enjoyed her narrative.
No. I'm listening to these books at work, over production weeks when I'm tied to my desk processing photos. That's why these books are so great to have so I have some culture to listen to while my eyes are witness to movie photos (some from movies I would never go to).
"Great addition to the series"
I thoroughly enjoyed this book. The storyline mixed up past and present to keep the suspense high, and the characters were believable. I enjoy Temperance Brennan's stories, and I didn't feel as if the scientific details were difficult to understand. Kathy Reichs continues to be one of my favourite authors and Linda Emond does a great job with the narration.
"Very Entertaining"
Kathy Reichs is one of my favorite authors and she has produced another great story.
Retired tech writer/editor. Mensa. Pgh Steelers/ Penguins fan. Lib Dem/feminist. Grew up reading lit--M.A. English--now read mys/thrillers.
"The Tempe I Know and Love"
I had read all the Tempe Brennan books preceding Cross Bones. That book was a big letdown -- found it mindnumbingly boring. Plus the series was on TV and I was getting a new mental picture of Tempe (and never liked Booth--Ryan rules). In short I gave up on Kathy Reichs. But I just gave her another chance with 206 Bones, and it was great! Now I'm backtracking to buy the books between the dud and the winner, in hopes of finding more winners. I'd heartily recommend 206 Bones. It's the Tempe I know and love - warm, caring, smart but not dysfunctionally so - teetering on the edge re her feelings about Ryan, and -- far from ruling the roost -- almost up to her neck in some hot water at work.
Tempe - see preceding description.
Tempe buried alive - will Ryan find her before she's just bones?
"should not have been written"
Better stoyline sorry this is too long an not up to other books
not as to medical
who knows narrator did the best she could do, did not even finish
all of it.... this is to long an boring zzzzzzzzzzz
do not purchase unless you are a machoist sorry but it took me 2 weeks to finish this audible book. story is crap not enjoyabloe to listen to
"Great Bones Book!"
I would recommend the book to a friend that is familiar with Kathy Reichs' novels and is aware that there is alot of science and detail in the book.
I always like Andrew Ryan. He adds a dash of humor and makes Tempe more human.
I would have loved to listen to the book all in one sitting - but it was a bit long for that! I found it best to listen in as condensed a time-frame as possible because of all of the detail and also because of the quick changes in scenery from current time to flash-back.
I've read comments about the amount of technical detail in the book. This is normal for Kathy Reichs' books. Temperance Brennan is a forensic anthropologist - the details are necessary to move the story forward and explain what she's doing for us normal people! Also, there have been comments about the French. The book is set in Montreal for at least 1/2 of the book...this means that if the author is being realistic and authentic, there will be some French. I found that the author provided translations for all of the French words and phrases used that were not immediately clear (such as expletives where a translation wasn't needed because the meaning was implied!).
"Ms. Reichs delivers on the continuing Tempe saga"
Like millions of others, I enjoy following a character through their trials and tribulations. Therefore execution and delivery on continuing story line actually begins to feel personally important to enjoyment. When that doesn't happen, it is a let down.At this point in the series' cycle, Ms. Reichs writing could use some fresh perspective. Tempe is clearly a bit depressed. While she and her handsome on and off beau, Ryan, travel to the beyond of Yellow Knife, their respective lives seem to lack purpose and direction. They meander through the plot solving crimes, but not enjoying themselves very much.Most of us hope that our own lives have meaning. The series risks losing its appeal, when characters whom we follow seem to have become lost in their own life. The books fails to deliver the sufficient dramatic tension to entice the reader forward. Why bother wondering what will happen with Tempe and Ryan and Co. when they don't seem they are all that interested themselves?
I would have thrown in a plot device that might force Tempe to make important life decisions. This could provide inspiration for the books to take on a new direction. For example, transfer Tempe to...England (or other British Empire colony, e.g. Hong Kong) for a year of research, introduce some new characters, make Ryan jealous, give the book new scenery and direction.
Ms. Edmond always does a great job. Beautiful voice and great tempo.
Despite this, I still greatly admire Ms. Reichs and know that she has the chops to continue delivering in the future.
Yes -- gripping story, excellent narrator. I listened to this book while on a multi-day car trip. I was really sad when it ended, but fortunately there were only a few hours left.
I really enjoyed the destructive coworker plot line. I also enjoyed the forensics (it's very interesting). Who knew that teeth could tell you so much about a person?
The ending scene. Although all the parts with Tempe's cat Bird are also fun -- I love the way she talks to Bird (I talk to my cat the same way).
The twisting, puzzle plot was the best part. And the narrator made a great book a pleasure to listen to.
"I don't speak French"
I might try another one, but it would have to be one without any French. Maybe it was the narrator, but she made it hard to understand when she was speaking French. It would probably be easier to follow in book format.
The most interesting aspect of the story was the involvement of forensic anthropology. However, some of that could have been explained more clearly as well. Again, it would probably be easier to follow in book format.
She did, except for the French speakers.
Bones is already a TV series.

SEO for dummies: read it before start your blog
I want to share my experience about blog and search engine optimization (SEO). There are some concepts to understand before starting a blog because they can impact seriously the architecture of your website. If you have to think about SEO after your blog is already published with many contents, the optimizations required could force you to change the content and the URL of your pages. So you should have some knowledge as soon as possible.
I won't give some deep details or technical stuff because SEO is a real job which need some theory and a lot of experiences. You will find below the concepts you should know. Continue reading
Get new TV shows episodes with subtitles in Plex automatically
If you watch a lot of TV shows like me, I'm sure you will appreciate this tutorial explaining how to automate all the process to have your new episodes with subtitles just after the release. I use tools like TVShows 2, Transmission, eventually Soleol and Plex of course !
Without automation, the process is long and uninteresting: search the episodes release date on the US TV, search the episodes files on the internet, check the associated comments to check quality and fake, search the subtitles in French and English languages, fetch all this stuff, move and rename files in the dedicated folder and finally launch a "refresh" of the media center. Only after that I can lie on the couch to enjoy my new episode.
So I've used my brain, searched on internet, and tested some solutions to succeed in automating all the process. Continue reading

So I've decided to share my code on Githhub and encourage you to test it and improve it. The code is commented and section you have to update are clearly identified. Continue reading
How to set a bilingual or multilingual WordPress multisite blog
First post of the new oncleben31.cc to share how I've setup WordPress to make a bilingual blog using the multisite feature. This can be easily extaneded for multilingual blogs.
I need two independent sites to facilitate the plugins and theme localization with an easy way to switch between languages if a translation is available. Another reason is to optimize the search engine indexing. With this solution I can have some language specific posts without translation.
Below I explain how I've implement that with WordPress: Continue reading
Oncleben31.cc reboot
Dear readers,
For regular visitors or those who have follow a link to come here: I've decide to delete the blog and start from scratch another version of oncleben31.cc because of the following reasons:
- The blog wasn't update since a long time.
- The content mainly about Plex and multilingual WordPress was deprecated.
- The former architecture of the blog was really difficult to maintain.
In few weeks, I will publish new contents about my predilection subjects (Plex and WordPress) and new ones to be discovered. The blog is still bilingual and my aims are still the same.
If you have ideas or comments to share, do it in the comments of this post.

If you took a Norinco 1911 to a good gunsmith, had him replace all the internals with high quality parts, tune, polish, and buff the insides - would you end up with a better gun than say a high-end production gun like TRP, Kimber Warrior, etc?
I think it would cost you the same.

The one-time specialty store division of Federated Department Stores is reportedly working with Bear Stearns on a preliminary prospectus that is expected to be filed within the next couple of weeks, according to Wall Street sources.
Julian Geiger, chairman and chief executive officer of the 275-unit chain, was visiting stores and unavailable for comment.
Reached at his office last week, John Howard of the Merchant Banking Group of Bear Stearns, said he could not comment on the report.
However, one Wall Street investment banker, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, said he expected the offering to raise between $75 million and $100 million in cash for the company.
Federated sold Aeropostale in 1998 to MSS Delaware Inc., a New York-based investment group headed by Geiger, his management team and the Bear Stearns Merchant Banking Group. At that time, the company consisted of 119 Aeropostale stores in 18 states and 42 Chelsea Cambell women's stores in 17 states, and had sales of around $185 million.
The stores, which were offshoots of Macy's private labels, did not fit into Federated's corporate strategy to focus on department stores. Aeropostale was originally a men's private label and the first specialty store under that name opened in 1987. Shortly after, the mix was expanded to include women's.
Today, Aeropostale targets young adults with "affordable, comfortable" sportswear for women and men. The 100 percent private label mix includes graphic T-shirts, colorful sweaters, denim, casual pants, "dorm gear" and accessories, according to its Web site.
The merchandise is popular with college students as a result of the company's sponsorships of several collegiate conferences across the country. To capitalize on this popularity, Aeropostale offers athletic-inspired apparel with an "updated varsity look." The mall-based stores compete with such hot teen retailers as American Eagle Outfitters and Abercrombie & Fitch.
The Aeropostale name dates back to the Twenties and derives from Compagnie Generale Aeropostale, a pioneer airmail company, which was the first ever to fly between South America and France.
Geiger, a native of New York, began his retail career as a buyer for Bloomingdale's in 1970. He joined Macy's in 1975 as a store manager, and held several positions before being named president of merchandising in charge of men's wear for Macy's East in 1992. He joined Asian American Partners as president of its Eagle's Eye wholesale and retail divisions in 1994 before rejoining Federated as president of its specialty store division in 1996.

OSHA News Release - (Archived) Table of Contents
OSHA News Release – Region 1
U.S. Department of Labor
Region 1 News Release: BOS 2001-127
Monday, Aug. 27, 2001
Contact: Ted Fitzgerald
Phone: (617) 565-2075
BOSTON -- A Texas-based contractor's apparent failure to supply cave-in protection for eight employees working in three excavations at a Londonderry, N.H, gas pipeline installation project has resulted in proposed fines totaling $59,000.
The U.S. Labor Department's Occupational Safety and Health Administration has cited Gregory & Cook Construction, Inc., of Houston, for alleged willful and serious safety violations discovered in an Aug. 17, spot inspection at a job site on Elijah Hill Lane in Londonderry. The alleged willful citation is for failure to supply adequate cave-in protection.
"Protection could have been provided by shoring the sidewalls of these excavations, sloping them at a shallow angle or using a trench box, yet none of these well-known and legally required safeguards were in place or in use," said David May, OSHA area director for New Hampshire, who noted that Gregory & Cook had been cited for similar violations twice before at job sites in Maine and Iowa.
Bureau of Labor Statistics data show that 40 workers died last year in excavation collapses in the U. S. OSHA standards require cave-in protection for excavations five feet or more in depth since their sidewalls can collapse suddenly and with great force, stunning and crushing workers beneath tons of soil and debris before they have a chance to react or escape.
Employers and employees in the Granite State with questions about excavation safety or other workplace safety and health standards may contact the OSHA area office in Concord at 603-225-1629. Information on OSHA standards, including help in recognizing, evaluating and controlling excavation hazards is available via the Internet in the Technical Links section of OSHA's website, www.osha-slc.gov .
OSHA's toll-free, nationwide hotline -- 1-800-321-OSHA (1-800-321-6742) -- may be used to report workplace accidents or fatalities or situations -- such as unguarded excavations -- posing imminent danger to workers, especially if they occur outside of normal business hours.
The information in this release will be made available to sensory impaired individuals upon request. Voice phone: (617) 565-2072. TDD (Telecommunications Device for the Deaf) Message Referral Phone: 800-347-8029.
FACT SHEET - Citations and Proposed Penalties
Gregory & Cook Construction, Inc. - Londonderry, NH job sites
OSHA has proposed a total of $59,000 in fines for:
One alleged willful violation, with a proposed fine of $55,000, for failure to supply adequate cave-in protection for employees working in excavations in the following instances:
- employees were inspecting weld coatings in an excavation located on the East Side of Elijah Hill Lane that was not properly shored nor sloped;
- employees were placing sandbags in an excavation located on the West Side of Elijah Hill Lane that was not properly shored nor sloped;
- employees were welding pipe in an excavation located between Elijah Hill Lane and Bockes Road that was not properly shored nor sloped;
[Gregory & Cook Construction was previously cited for substantially similar violations in November 1998 and March 1999, following inspections at worksites in, respectively, Brooklyn, Iowa, and Gorham, Maine.]
Two alleged serious violations, with $4,000 in fines proposed, for failure to provide a safe means of access to one of the excavations and failure to provide guardrails for a walkway over the excavation.
The company has 15 business days from receipt of its latest citations and proposed penalties to either elect to comply with them, to request and participate in an informal conference with the OSHA area director, or to contest them before the independent Occupational Safety and Health Review Commission.
A willful violation is defined by OSHA as one committed with an intentional disregard of, or plain indifference to, the requirements of the Occupational Safety and Health Act and regulations.
A serious violation is defined as one in which there is a substantial probability that death or serious physical harm could result, and the employer knew, or should have known, of the hazard.
OSHA is empowered by the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 to issue standards and rules requiring employers to provide their employees with safe and healthful workplaces and jobsites, and to assure through workplace inspections that those standards are followed.

Illinois Conference MIssion Trip
Iquitos, Peru
Iquitos, Peru
The Illinois Conference is hosting a mission trip for all ages to Iquitos, Peru in October. Click here for all the details and registration information. Plan now, because space is limited.
Vision and Mission
We Exist to Grow Healthy, Disciple-making Churches
Welcome to the Illinois Conference. By God's grace, we are a growing conference. We are a healthy conference. We are a discipling conference.
Today in the business world there is a lot of focus on mission and vision. Mission explains why we exist. Vision looks into the future and sees what we could become. Sadly some have drawn the wrong conclusion that mission/vision is a secular business strategy. I believe the exact opposite is true. Laser focus on mission and vision is very biblical. Jesus gave His marching orders (the Great Commission) to His disciples just before He ascended into heaven. Matthew 28:18–20 clearly articulates the church's mission … to make disciples of Jesus of every race in every place.
Jesus also attracted His listeners' hearts and minds by casting compelling visions of the future. John 14:1–3 is an example. At the heart of it is Jesus' promise to return again. This is a vision of a preferred future event that we Seventh-day Adventists love and hold close to our hearts. My favorite biblical vision is recorded in Revelation 21:1–3. This hopeful passage describes what heaven will be like, a place where there are no more tears, sadness, pain, or death. When I read this heavenly vision, I recommit myself to walk daily with Jesus. I long to spend eternity there with my best friend, Jesus.
Mission and vision are biblical concepts that the secular marketplace has borrowed to run successful businesses. Churches today need to have clear and compelling mission and vision statements. Our conference's mission is to "Grow healthy, disciple-making churches." Accomplishing this, by God grace, means that we are being faithful to Jesus' command.
Ray Pichette
Illinois Conference president and fellow disciple in Christ

Electronic Arts Betting on Cheaper Free-to-Play Titles
Electronic Arts Inc., the second-largest U.S. video-game publisher, will develop fewer Facebook games as it shifts to mobile and free offerings, the head of the company's development studios said.
The maker of "Madden NFL" and "Medal of Honor" has become the largest publisher of games that are free to play on mobile devices, Frank Gibeau, president of the Redwood City, California-based company's EA Labels said in an interview.
Electronic Arts is hastening development of less-expensive games, titles that cost $2 million to $5 million to produce, to double its share of the mobile market, which Gibeau put in the "low teens" in percentage terms. To that end, Electronic Arts combined Playfish, the unit focused on social-media games, with Maxis studio, which develops the popular "Sims" franchise.
"We'll build social games, but we'll probably have a smaller line-up," Gibeau said yesterday. "Free-to-play is the dominant model. You can fail fast and you can fail cheap."
Developers are trying to adopt a "cross-platform" strategy, delivering games for play on everything from traditional home consoles to Apple Inc.'s iPads and Facebook.
Those efforts have been complicated by the shifting tastes of casual players, constituting the majority of the market, who don't stick with individual games for very long, Gibeau said.
With free-to-play games, users spend nothing upfront. About 10 percent to 15 percent of players purchase additional levels or add-ons. "The Simpsons" is the most popular such game for Electronic Arts, Gibeau said.
PopCap Games
Electronic Arts' PopCap Games, which makes titles played on Facebook, fired about 10 percent of its staff on Aug. 21.
The company acquired PopCap in July 2011 for $750 million in cash and stock, with performance incentives that potentially raised the price to $1.3 billion. Zynga Inc., the largest maker of games played on Facebook, has been grappling with an exodus of top executives as it tries to revive growth by making more money from mobile services.
Electronic Arts gained 2 percent to $13.10 at 2:28 p.m. in New York. It had declined 38 percent this year as of yesterday. Activision Blizzard Inc. is the largest U.S. publisher.
With the global online gambling market poised to hit $30 billion by 2013, social game makers also are preparing to offer products with real betting as a new source of revenue.
Electronic Arts hasn't yet decided whether to add gambling to its World Series of Poker game and another title, Gibeau said. It would be relatively easy to do so, he added.
"We don't need to do this in order to grow our company and achieve our goals," he said.

Two schools founded by Dorothy June Brown failed to have their charters renewed Thursday, as Philadelphia School District officials voiced concerns about both.
A resolution to renew the charter of Laboratory Charter School with stipulations was on the School Reform Commission agenda Thursday night, but Superintendent William R. Hite Jr. withdrew it, citing new information the district had received.
Both Lab, with campuses in Northern Liberties, Overbrook, and Wynnefield, and Planet Abacus have been operating without charters for more than a year, and parents and staff say they fear for the future of the schools without them. The schools perform well academically, but district officials have had concerns about finances and administration.

Operating System: Microsoft Windows Vista SP1
Drivers: Intel INF 22.214.171.1248, Forceware 175.16
Today we are using the HighPoint 3120 SATA-II controller against the onboard ICH10R Southbridge based RAID controller which is software based; this to see if there is any advantage of using a dedicated controller.
HD Tune Pro
Version and / or Patch Used: 2.54
Developer Homepage: http://www.efdsoftware.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 may also work with other storage devices such as memory cards, USB sticks, iPods, etc.
First off, we decided to mix things up by putting HD Tune in action. Here we can see that the HighPoint controller while using only a single channel PCIe lane, still manages to outperform the ICH10R. Due to the IOP onboard along with dedicated cache memory for better write performance, we see an increase in the overall transfer rate and a decrease in the CPU usage.
