Seaport Security: Different strategies for reaching similar objective
America's seaports are taking several different paths toward providing shippers with safe and secure commerce, LM learned last week in a series of interviews.

America's seaports are taking several different paths toward providing shippers with safe and secure commerce, LM learned last week in a series of interviews. And while some are more heavily reliant on sophisticated container screening systems, others are concentrating on vetting supply chain partners and intermediaries.
At the same time, all ports are mandated to comply with new U.S. regulatory rules while remaining poised to anticipate new changes in international law.
However, since there are an estimated 360 seaports in the U.S., no single security solution fits every gateway, says American Association of Port Authorities (AAPA) spokesman, Aaron Ellis. "Some ports are dealing solely with bulk and break bulk cargo, so container scanning is not going to work," he says. "And others may chiefly have roll-on/roll off and project cargo," he adds. "But for the major container ports, the standards are fairly uniform."
Joe Lawless, the Massachusetts Port Authority's (Massport) director of maritime security, agrees with Ellis, adding that 100 percent container screening will have to be customized to be effective. "Some ports will concentrate on screening for radiation, while others will place a higher emphasis concentration on routine inspection," he says. "In any case, it's one of the critical pieces that's only being worked out right now."
Lawless, who also serves as chairman of the AAPA's Port Security Committee, will be meeting with his colleagues in New Orleans this month to discuss other issues related to port protection. Seaports worldwide annually handle roughly 1.5 billion tons of cargo worth over $1 trillion, arriving in at least 11 million containers. They require deep-water access, sufficient land for staging and storage, and unrestricted access to highway, rail, inland waterway, and pipeline networks.
At this point in time, the Department of Defense (DoD) maintains only an informal business relationship with U.S. ports. However, the DoD plays a considerable role in the security plan to prevent attacks on the ports, prepare to respond to possible attacks, and to restore their services post attack.
"But the ports themselves have to help government determine what the priorities are," says Lawless. "That's why AAPA members must constantly network among ourselves and our overseas counterparts to share information."

"I decided from the beginning that right and wrong wouldn't be a part of Death Note."
Tsugumi Ohba (大場 つぐみ, Ōba Tsugumi) is the writer and creator of Death Note. Ohba's real identity is a closely guarded secret, and the real name, gender, and date of birth of the author are undisclosed.
There are many facts about the writer gleaned from the profile placed at the beginning of each Death Note manga volume, two being that Ohba collects teacups and that they develop manga plots while holding their knees on a chair (like L).
Ohba's works have been or are currently published in the Weekly Shōnen Jump.
- Death Note centers around a high school student who discovers a supernatural notebook that allows him to kill anyone by writing the victim's name and picturing his or her face. The plot follows his attempt to create and lead a world cleansed of evil using the Death Note and the complex conflict between himself and his varied antagonists.
- Bakuman follows two boys in the 9th grade who wish to be mangaka.
- Platinum End is about a boy who is saved by his guardian angel and receives two powers, using them to find a reason to live.

For a self-effacing, portly little plumber, Mario may be the most ambitious guy in video games.
It's not enough that he has the most recognizable face in the industry; his parents at Nintendo have promoted him everywhere, from T-shirts and lunchboxes to cartoons and cell-phone ringtones.
He's probably more familiar to kids of a certain generation than Mickey Mouse.
Like Mickey, Mario has a lively supporting cast, including his brother, Luigi, his object of desire, Princess Peach, and his nemesis, King Bowser.
Nintendo's deep bench also includes such cuddly stalwarts as Donkey Kong, Kirby and the entire Pokemon lineup.
• Click here to visit FOXNews.com's Video Gaming Center.
No other video-game company puts its characters to work as much as Nintendo does. Mario's closest competitor is Sega's Sonic the Hedgehog, but he's had some pretty rough years, with a run of lackluster games.
But you can't keep a popular mascot down forever, and Sonic may be on the verge of a long-awaited comeback.
—"Wario Land: Shake It!" (Nintendo, for the Wii, $49.99): Wario is Mario's evil alter ego: He's fatter, meaner and greedier, and his mustache is out of control.
While he began his career as an antagonist for Mario, he's taken the lead in about a dozen games since, including the terrific "WarioWare" series of five-second-long "microgames."
"Shake It!" isn't anywhere near as inventive as those gems. Instead, it's a fairly linear, two-dimensional running-and-jumping game (a "platformer," to resort to industry jargon).
It's exactly the kind of game that made Mario famous two decades ago, and it feels awfully old-fashioned.
The twist is that by shaking the Wii remote, you can cause earthquakes, which flip your enemies upside-down and open up new areas to explore.
While "Shake It!" is a solid platformer, the levels aren't very challenging — you can get through each one in about 10 minutes, and you can polish off the entire game in just a few hours.
There are some bonus goals that provide motivation to replay levels, but most gamers will be disappointed. Two stars out of four.
— "Kirby Super Star Ultra" (Nintendo, for the DS, $34.99): Kirby is one of those second-string Nintendo characters that gamers either love or hate.
He's a simple pink ball with flipperlike arms and big red feet, and he sucks. Literally. His primary power is the ability to inhale his enemies, which allows him to absorb their powers.
Amazingly, this cipher has his own Saturday morning cartoon series.
"Ultra" is a remake of a 1996 game that came out on the Super Nintendo Entertainment System. For the most part, it's a straightforward platformer.
After you breeze through the initial levels, subsequent stages throw in variations: You may need to race against an opponent or collect a certain number of treasures before time runs out.
There are also a few minigames in which you need to match cards or hit targets, but they aren't worth more than a couple of plays.
Young Kirby fans who missed the original game will get a kick out of "Ultra," but it's not the best showcase for the iron-lunged dynamo. Two stars.
— "Sonic Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood" (Sega, for the DS, $34.99): Sega has been trying for years to recapture the excitement generated by the original "Sonic the Hedgehog," released in 1991.
For this DS adventure, the company put its marquee performer in the hands of BioWare, the studio that made the last great "Star Wars" game, "Knights of the Old Republic."
The result is a crafty genre mix that could introduce Sonic fans to BioWare's specialty, the role-playing game.
Knuckles the Echidna has been kidnapped, and Sonic and his friends uncover a millennia-old conspiracy when they set out to rescue him.
The plot doesn't aspire to the sophistication of BioWare's "Mass Effect," but it's a cut above most platformer stories.
There's a lot of territory to explore in "Dark Brotherhood," and a variety of interesting puzzles that require the talents of all of Sonic's friends to solve. And the combat sequences mix turn-based strategy with the need for nimble stylus-tapping.
BioWare has delivered a fresh approach to the Sonic saga, and I hope this is just the start of a long partnership. Three stars.

BOTNAR helps Cazanesti orphanage
Taken from http://www.bothar.org/bovine2006summer7.htm
A helping hand for orphans in Orhei, Moldova
The poorest nation in Europe, Moldova is fighting difficult social, economic and political times. Formerly part of Romania, it got incorporated into the Soviet Union at the close of World War II. After its independence from the USSR (1991), Russian forces have remained on Moldovan territory supporting the Slavic population, mostly Ukrainians and Russians, who have proclaimed a "Transnistria" republic in the East.
In a country where social and political instability is at home, a healthy economy cannot blossom. The majority of Moldovans live severely below the poverty level. The lack of jobs and economic opportunities, widespread corruption, human and drug trafficking, high numbers of orphans living in institutions with poor conditions, mass migration are just some of the problems that Moldova is currently trying to fight.
The Gymnasium Orphanage of Cazanesti is situated in Orhei county, in the eastern part of Moldova. It is an institution with limited resources that hosts and provides education to 262 orphaned and abandoned children. The government allocates about 0,70$/child/day for food. No funds are provided for clothes, shoes, furniture or school supplies, which are sometimes financed by charity organizations.
Livestock for Orphans in Orhei was a project that made an important difference for the inhabitants of the orphanage. The project, financed by Bothar Ireland, provided six high-quality cows and twelve rabbits to the orphanage. The youth and children received the animals with much joy, more than happy to have new four-legged playmates. Play and learning went hand in hand, as they slowly acquired very useful animal breeding skills.
The high-quality cows and rabbits have provided meat, milk and dairy products that have started the first steps towards improving children's nutrition. The pure breed cows received are slowly replacing the unproductive local breed the orphanage had before the project started. Pure breed animals mean better genes, increased production and a higher quality of products.
The needs of the orphanage are high, as it hosts a large number of children and youth, therefore the project partners agreed for the institution to keep the first passing-on animals in order to increase the orphanage livestock numbers. To date, there are 9 female pure-breed cows and heifers and more than one hundred rabbits at the orphanage. The livestock numbers are increasing each year, especially rabbit numbers, who are reproducing very fast, as a female rabbit gives birth to an average of 5 offspring about twice a year.
The purpose of this project was to improve children's nutrition by providing livestock to the orphanage and to train children in livestock breeding in order to prepare them for the future. Children and youth have quickly grown accustomed to taking care of animals. Children take care of rabbits, while youth are in charge with cows and heifers. They are benefiting of agricultural training, thus increasing their chances of getting work on a farm after they leave the institution.

Hitler's Gun...Going..... Going........ Gone!
This particular style of gun is known as a "drilling" which consists of a double barrel 12 gauge shotgun affixed to the top of the unit, coupled with a 8 X 57JR caliber rifle barrel attached to the bottom of the upper shotgun barrels. The gun was designed and manufactured by the Krieghoff Gun Company, located in Germany. The serial number inscribed on the gun is 15450, which identifies the gun as having been originally proofed in 1931, and then likely stored by the company before being later engraved for presentation. This particular model is called a "Neptune" and is covered by elaborate engravings done by a master engraver of the time. On either side, the receiver is covered in its entirety by high relief engravings, depicting woodlands with deer and stag. The gun sports cocking indicators, a pop up rifle barrel sight, and a single set trigger for the rifle barrel. The metal finish is estimated to be 90% plus, and the beautiful walnut stock is also in the 90% range -- however some of the checking on the stock could stand to be re-grooved (the checking has developed a "flat" look, but is still easily visible). The gun appears to be in excellent mechanical condition, and has excellent bores. Most interestingly, the bottom of the trigger guard is engraved with the initials "AH".
According to the gun's owners, the weapon was seized as a war trophy, by a U.S. paratrooper, from Hitler's mountain hideaway in the Bavarian Mountains. This hideaway, known as the Eagle's Nest was captured in May 1945 by the U.S. Army's 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, made famous in the HBO mini-series "Band of Brothers". The paratrooper later sold the gun to an Army lieutenant who was unaware of the connection to Hitler. The lieutenant settled in Illinois and kept the gun under his bed for years, taking it out only occasionally to hunt. He died more than a decade ago, and his family no longer wanted the gun.

I was wondering if anybody has made this version? Did you use a Lemon cake mix too with adding the Lemon juice, flarvor and zest?
I'd love to hear what you guys think. Do you think it would be too lemony?
Cakepro has an excellent recipe!
I made it with Lemon cake mix and used a mix of vanilla and lemon extract. Very tasty!
Galliesway thxs for mentioning the recipe by Cakepro, I'll go and check it out. Lemon cake is one of my fav's.
I didn't do the lemon cake but I did make the WASC into a White Chocolate Sour cream by deleting the almond and adding white chocolate pudding mix. Then I added lemon extract to my buttercream and it was amazing with the cake!
I JUST made this last week an it was SO GOOD!! I used lemon cake mix, all lemon extract in place of the almond and then I used lemonaide instead of water - HOLY YUM!
It was for a kids party and there was not a piece left! It was so good my totally caked out husband at another piece at the party.
I am NOT a fan of lemon - but even I loved this cake!
I made macsmom's lemon WASC and not a crumb was left over! It had a mix of one white mix and one lemon mix, along with the lemonade concentrate and lemon extract. I was fearing that it would be too lemony but it was really good!

Talk:Lilburn Boggs
|This is the talk page for discussing improvements to the Lilburn Boggs article.
This is not a forum for general discussion of the article's subject.
Article policies
|This article is of interest to the following WikiProjects:
Name - Lilliburn W. Boggs[edit]
Isn't his name 'Lilliburn W. Boggs'? I have seen more references to that name than the one currently posted. Jgardner 20:56, 2004 Oct 18 (UTC)
- You have? Where? The History of the Church and D. Michael Quinn (Origins of Power) use this spelling. If you're refering to this link, that's clearly a typo. saintswithouthalos has 7 other pages with this spelling in it. According to google, there are over 1800 examples of Lilburn W. Boggs online, but only two Lilliburn. It is a common-enough typo to merit redirect though. Cool Hand Luke (Communicate!) 21:14, 18 Oct 2004 (UTC)
There are two Lilburn Boggs. One is Gov. Lilburn Wycliff Boggs and the other is his Great Grandson, Lilburn F. Boggs, born to one of the son's of William Montgomery and Sonora Hicklin in Sonoma, California. Dr. Thomas Jefferson Boggs was the only brother of Gov. Lilburn Wycliff Boggs. Dr. Thomas Jefferson Boggs was my Great, Great Grandfather. Gov. Boggs and Panthea Grant Boone had 10 children, 7 boys and 3 girls. Panthea Grant Boone was the Granddaughter of Daniel and Rebecca Bryan Boone. Daniel Boones son Jesse Bryan Boone is the father of Panthea Grant Boone. This information is from family history I have aquired. DRCook, West Jordan, Utah.
- Actually, there were at least five Lilburn Boggses -- the governor and three grandsons (by three different sons, distinguished from one another by their middle names), and the great grandson mentioned. Several sources give Boggs' middle name as Williams, not Wycliff. Does anybody have a good 19th century source to verify what the W really stood for? --Reader
- A recent anon is asserting that Williams is the appropriate name, citing his gravestone as documentation. I have nothing personally invested in Wycliffe, as it was used here before I began editing the page. All but one secondary source that I personally have to hand simply uses W., the other uses Wycliffe. But as Wikipedia practice encourages the documentation of significant changes to a page (Wikipedia:Verifiability), whether from a written source or an online link, other sources would be important before such a change is made. I will not revert again right away, but would like to see source material in the near future. Perhaps one that refers to a primary document from Boggs' time? WBardwin 06:27, 9 June 2006 (UTC)
- Why not just leave it at "Lilburn W. Boggs" until somebody can offer definitive proof one way or the other? I haven't seen any documentation whatsoever that it was "Wycliffe," but I have seen photos of the gravestone with "Williams."
- Photo of Boggs' grave with "Williams" clearly visible at http://www.jwha.info/mmff/boggs.htm
'Legal to "exterminate" Mormons in Missouri'[edit]
This language is absurd, paranoid, PoV, and inflammatory:
- For over 130 years it was legal to "exterminate" Mormons in Missouri until ...
On the other hand,
- If it is verifiable that that is what Mormons are taught, we should state that.
- If that's what Bond said in his apology, we should state that.
- And no doubt there were anti-Mormon Missourians who thot an executive order could suspend the homicide laws (perhaps despite, besides before, the "due process" amendments). If any of them can be verified to have acted upon that belief those could even be events worthy not only of mention here but of individual articles. But even instances of such a belief or defense would have to be distinguished from crimes committed in the atmosphere that at least the decade or so that included such an order would stem from and perpetuate; probably many (and perhaps most) went unpunished because of something entirely different from it being legal, or even being believed legal. For example, false claims of self-defense or of accidental deaths, that produced reasonable doubt or jury nullification, may be an aspect of the religion-based parallel of genocide (
[wink]credocide, 2 of about 7? credicide, 37 of about 320? ), but they are not instances of acts of "extermination" being legal.

Thank you, Jerzy, for injecting a note of reason!
Boggs bullet comes out in meeting[edit]
I recall in History class hearing that one of the BB's from assassination attempt came through Boggs nose while he was speaking before the State Senate, to which he replied something along the lines of "I told you there were a few things loose" Can anyone verify this 188.8.131.52 00:20, 12 March 2007 (UTC) Ok, I'm not an authority on guns but - a revolver that fires buckshot?! This seems pretty fanciful to me. More likely he was shot with a shotgun. Only response to the above post - buckshot wouldn't be BB's. Buckshot is pretty nice size, like a small ball bearing.Eggerst 22:11, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
I just did a quick Google search and came up with Buckshot revolvers hits. It appears they did exist. 188.8.131.52 (talk) 23:40, 11 November 2009 (UTC)
Orphaned Image[edit]
I posted the official portrait of Boggs. The image below has an attribution issue but I don't want to be the one who orphans or deletes it. Americasroof 01:38, 22 September 2007 (UTC)
Pro-Mormom 'spin'?[edit]
At first reading this article strikes me as having some WP:POV and neutrality issues. It seems very "pro-Mormon" if you will, with some rather inflamatory language. I'm not anti-Mormon at all, so don't jump down my pie hole, I'm just "pro-Neutrality". How about a rewrite using more sources not associated with the LDS point of view? Think I'll add this to my growing list of Mo. Governor projects to work on, but it may be awhile. Anyone else want to take a crack at it first be my guest. Have a great Wiki kinda day! Sector001 (talk) 16:09, 9 August 2012 (UTC)
Assassination attempt, don't believe there was an actual trial[edit]
The info in the article has a reference or two claiming that there was a trial of Porter Rockwell and that he was acquitted (while some other articles say he was convicted.) But, various other things I've read indicate that instead the grand jury did not find enough evidence to issue an indictment for murder. Therefore, there was no trial for murder. The Porter Rockwell article does indicate an indictment and conviction for Rockwell's jail break while under arrest, but that is a separate matter. Why the discrepancy? Is there a definitive well researched account that has all of the particulars? Red Harvest (talk) 01:24, 16 June 2014 (UTC)

text: MENLO PARK, Calif., July 31, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Landec Corporation (Nasdaq:LNDC), today reported results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year 2013. Revenues for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2013 increased 30% to $107.1 million compared to revenues of $82.6 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2012. Net income increased to $4.5 million or $0.17 per diluted share compared to net income of $2.8 million or $0.11 per diluted share for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2012. Revenues for fiscal year 2013 increased 39% to $441.7 million compared to revenues of $317.6 million for fiscal year 2012. Net income for fiscal year 2013 was $22.6 million or $0.85 per diluted share compared to net income of $12.7 million or $0.49 per diluted share for fiscal year 2012. Gary Steele, Landec's Chairman and CEO, commented, "We had a good fourth quarter and an outstanding fiscal year. Operating highlights for the fourth quarter and fiscal year included: (1) growing Lifecore's revenues 20% during both periods and growing pre-tax net income before intercompany charges by 135% and 23%, respectively, (2) increasing revenues in our non-GreenLine Apio food business by 20% and 15%, respectively, (3) increasing Apio's export revenues by 10% during fiscal year 2013, (4) launching a family of new superfood products with significant initial nationwide demand during the year, and (5) benefiting from our partner Windset's 64-acre expansion of hydroponic greenhouses in Santa Maria, California, that is scheduled to begin initial harvesting early this fall, several months ahead of plan. This expansion will double Windset's capacity in California to 128 acres, or six million square feet of greenhouse operations." Continued Mr. Steele, "For fiscal year 2013, revenues grew 39% and net income grew 47%, before including the $3.9 million non-recurring earn-out adjustment recorded during the second quarter of fiscal year 2013. Earnings per share for fiscal year 2013 were $0.70, excluding the $3.9 million earn-out adjustment. For the quarter, revenues grew 30% and net income grew 63% compared to the fourth quarter of last year. Notably, we achieved this strong growth in both the fourth quarter and fiscal year despite significant weather-related events during the year."

Old News - Newsletter September 2005
Well, I've been back from Oz for a week now, although
it feels much longer! I had a fabulous time, the place
is gorgeous, the people are wonderful, and the man is
amazing. The feeling appears to be mutual, so much so
that I am starting the process of wrapping things up
here and will be heading Down Under to be with him
early next year! Exciting and scary, but certainly not
dull! I am now pimping my home ready to sell, and once
that completes I'll be giving notice at work… so watch
this space.
As for my trip itself, Sydney is a stunning city. We walked all over, seeing the bridge and opera house, then went out in a boat for the day and explored quiet bays and posh areas with mansions overlooking the sea. Then Milord flew me up to the Whitsunday islands for 3 nights, which is a tropical paradise of white sand and turquoise sea near the Great Barrier Reef, and we did a little diving, a little walking and a lot of good food, fine wine and great company. I met a fair number of his friends who are lovely, rude, loud and welcoming, and as luck would have it Heidi was in town on business so he had the chance to meet one of my mates too!
I don't think I have ever been treated so well, and we are disgustingly smitten ;-). He's even talking about braving the UK winter to visit me in a couple of months time!
My Dad has been staying with me for the past week. He was contracted to bring a ship up from Cape Town to Newcastle, so took the opportunity to have a little holiday here at the same time. My stepmom flew out to join him, and they visited with my stepbrother for a while and then came to me. The joined me on the day I landed back from Sydney, which was great as they kept me up and I was able to get my sleeping patterns right almost immediately, although I'm not sure how much sense I was making at the time! I had a couple of days off to spend with them and we explored the countryside around Berkshire, involving lots of pub lunches outside as the weather was hot and sunny all week.

Scientists Invent First Functional Single-Atom Transistor
A team of scientists at the ARC Centre for Quantum Computation and Communication, at the University of New South Wales (UNSW), unveiled a fully functional single-atom transistor, which they predict will go on to become a critical building block of tomorrow's high-performance computing devices. The new transistor design was described in a paper, published by Nature. The active component of this transistor is a single phosphorous atom patterned between atomic-scale electrodes and control gates.
Single atom transistor designs have been attempted in the past, but those designs have had an error of about 10 nanometres in positioning of the atoms, which is big enough to affect their functionality. Professor Michelle Simmons, group leader of this study, said that this is the first time "anyone has shown control of a single atom in a substrate with this level of precise accuracy," adding that "Several groups have tried this, but if you want to make a practical computer in the long-term you need to be able to put lots of individual atoms in."

Multi-Purpose Photonic Chip Paves The Way To Programmable Quantum Processors
A multi-purpose optical chip which generates, manipulates and measures entanglement and mixture - two quantum phenomena which are essential driving forces for tomorrow's quantum computers - has been developed by researchers from the University of Bristol's Centre for Quantum Photonics. This work represents an important step forward in the race to develop a quantum computer.
The fundamental resource that drives a quantum computer is entanglement - the connection between two distant particles which Einstein famously called 'spooky action at a distance'. The Bristol researchers have, for the first time, shown that this remarkable phenomenon can be generated, manipulated and measured entirely on a tiny silica chip. They have also used the same chip to measure mixture - an often unwanted effect from the environment, but a phenomenon which can now be controlled and used to characterize quantum circuits, as well as being of fundamental interest to physicists.

Nokia Pledges to Halve Power Consumption of Device Chargers
Nokia promised a little while ago to "go green", and today it seems they are living up to their promise. Nokia recently announced plans to halve the power consumption of battery chargers to their various devices, including cell phones and PDAs. Since you obviously don't get something for nothing, the secret behind this decrease in power consumption lies in increasing the power efficiency of the original units. Nokia has already done quite a few things to help with the eco-friendly movement, including make several handsets out of recycled materials. They've also devised AC adapters that are 94% more efficient than EPA standards require.Source: Reg Hardware
Greenpeace Begins Campaign Against Console Manufacturers
Greenpeace, as the name suggests, seeks to make the natural world a better place for everyone. They recently noticed that console manufacturers certainly aren't doing a good job of helping the environment. And so, they started up the "Clash of the Consoles" website, which jests at the environmental unfriendliness of a typical console. The campaign's main purpose is to raise awareness of the toxic chemicals inside the typical console (such as brominated flame retardants (BFRs) and Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC)), and entice manufacturers to make better consoles. Please read the source article for a detailed list of the exact problems each console has, and what each manufacturer is doing about the alleged toxicity of each console.Source: DailyTech
IBM Pioneers Process to Turn Waste into Solar Energy
IBM today announced an innovative new semiconductor wafer reclamation process pioneered at its Burlington, Vermont manufacturing facility. The new process uses a specialized pattern removal technique to repurpose scrap semiconductor wafers -- thin discs of silicon material used to imprint patterns that make finished semiconductor chips for computers, mobile phones, video games, and other consumer electronics -- to a form used to manufacture silicon-based solar panels. The new process was recently awarded the "2007 Most Valuable Pollution Prevention Award" from The National Pollution Prevention Roundtable (NPPR).
Sony Wants Your Broken PlayStations...For Recycling
As Dailytech so eloquently puts it, Sony wants their stuff back – but only if you're done with it. Sony recently announced the start of the Sony Take Back Recycling Program. On September 15th, you can take your old Sony hardware to any of 75 Waste Management drop-off locations, where it will be recycled for absolutely no fee. As the program expands, Sony aims to have a recycling center within 20 miles of 95% of American households. Sony's ultimate goal of this program is to get 1 pound of old goods recycled for every 1 pound of merchandise shipped out. When asked for a comment on this new recycling program, Sony president and CEO Stan Glasgow says "Providing the highest level of service and support doesn't stop once a purchase is made. We believe it is Sony's responsibility to provide customers with end-of-life solutions for all the products we manufacture."Source: DailyTech
Samsung Unveils Prototype Fuel Cell Laptop
While recent recalls suggest that the current type of laptop batteries are dangerous, an alternative power source seems to be screaming "you ain't seen nothing yet": The Direct Methanol Fuel Cell. Samsung recently showed off a prototype of their Q35 laptop powered solely by a fuel cell. Samsung claims that the laptop can run eight hours a day for a month (about 240 hours) without needing a recharge. The most recent prototype of the Q35 even solved some noise problems previously associated with fuel cell powered laptops. Samsung is currently putting the Q35 through some strict safety testing, and it might even be available by the end of this year. A retail price is yet to be confirmed.Reg Hardware
Dell Aspiring to Become the most eco-friendly PC company
Back in April, Dell started the "Plant A Tree For Me" fund, which is basically a gigantic charity based around planting trees to offset the carbon dioxide surplus in our world. Now, Dell is taking further steps to actively protect and help the environment. Two of Dell's latest notebooks, the D430 and Precision M4300, have been certified with the stringent Environmental Protection Agency's Energy Star 4.0. Ten of Dell's desktop models have already been certified compliant with Energy Star 4.0, which Dell claims makes it "the greenest technology company". Dell also launched cooler-running servers that are more efficient and require less energy to run. Dell is also working hard to make SSD storage available in as many of it's computers as possible.
If competitors decide that they want to steal the crown of "the greenest technology company" from Dell, we may finally see companies striving to make computers more powerful while reducing their impact on the environment.Source: Reg Hardware

Intel and Others Join Climate Savers Computing Initiative
Intel Corporation and Google joined with Dell, EDS, the Environmental Protection Agency, HP, IBM, Lenovo, Microsoft, Pacific Gas and Electric, World Wildlife Fund, and more than a dozen additional organizations today announcing their intent to form the Climate Savers Computing Initiative. The goal of the new broad-based environmental effort is to save energy and reduce greenhouse gas emissions by setting aggressive new targets for energy-efficient computers and components, and promoting the adoption of energy-efficient computers and power management tools worldwide.
AMD Donates $16,000 to Dell's Plant a Tree for Me fund
The Dell Plant a Tree for Me fund has just gotten a large benefactor: AMD. AMD is donating $1 for every employee they have, which just so happens to be 16,000 people. This means that Dell will have $16,000 worth of trees to plant. The Plant a Tree for Me fund is a fund-raiser that tries to negate the environmental impact of their computers. By donating two to six dollars with your desktop or laptop purchase, Dell will plant a tree that will properly negate the environmental impact of your new computer.Source: Reg Hardware
Mobile phones quickly Becoming a toxic waste problem
While we do focus on our computers a lot, most of us have something to remind us how much we love our technology while on the road: a cell phone. And this cell phone is turning into quite the issue. Driving distractions aside, cell phones do add one very negative effect to society: a huge pile of toxic waste. When people upgrade to the latest phone, they frequently throw away their old one. And these old cell phones contain such nasty chemicals as copper, nickel, antimony, and zinc. As time moves on, and phones decompose, the phone turns into a pile of toxic, hazardous mush. And when 700 million tiny piles of toxic mush make their way to the landfill, at an increasing rate of 130 million phones a year, we get several thousand pounds of toxic mush lying around in landfills everywhere. We really ought to find a better way to dispose of cell phones.Source: Nordic Hardware
Intel Quietly Launches First Core 2 Duo ULV Processors
Intel has added two ultra low voltage Core 2 Duo processors to its product portfolio. The new 1.06GHz U7500 and the 1.2GHz U7600 models, are based on the Merom core with 533MHz FSB and 2MB L2 cache. Both CPUs will be targeting mini notebooks, tablet PCs and ultra-portable notebooks. The U7500 and U7600 are introduced as part of the currently shipping "Napa refresh" platform, but will also be available for the upcoming Santa Rosa platform with a slight change in pinout. The new Merom ULV CPUs will be replacing the Core Duo U2500 processor over the coming months. One of the first manufacturers offering the U7500/U7600 will be Gateway who said that its E-100M notebook will be available with the two processors beginning on May 3 of this year.Source: TG Daily
Lenovo is the Greenest Electronics Manufacturer
Greenpeace has produced a new report in which it ranks Chinese-based computer manufacturer Lenovo as the world's most eco-friendly electronics firm, beating other environmentally friendly companies such as Nokia, Sony Ericsson, Dell and Samsung. Out of the fourteen different companies detailed in the report, Apple Inc. came last. The companies are ranked according to the amount of toxic chemicals that are used when producing their electronics, not how energy efficient the devices themselves are, something that is beginning to become a major problem in countries such as China where many of these electronic devices are manufactured. Unsurprisingly, Apple responded by saying "We disagree with Greenpeace's rating and the criteria" as part of a statement.

AMD redesigning their Turion mobile platform to break 5 hour barrier for battery life
Owners of AMD laptops know that AMD is working very hard to extend laptop battery life while maintaining a nice performance. Intel has been working just as hard to beat AMD at their own game, and with the Santa Rosa platform, it looks like Intel is becoming a serious threat to the battery life crown. And so, AMD will be updating the Kite platform, which hosts the Turion processors. The new Kite platform will support DDR2 RAM, 65nm "Hawk" processors, and socket S1. The new Kite platform will be based on the AMD RS690T chipset, which is a low power variant of the AMD RS690 desktop chipset. The graphics will be provided by an integrated solution not unlike the X700 series. The southbridge chipset will be an SB700, which will provide the various IO functions. We should see the new Kite sometime this year. AMD will further their work in saving power sometime in 2008, by applying some K10 architecture ideas to the "Griffen" architecture. As I said before, AMD is aiming to break the five-hour barrier for battery life, and not by buying a bigger battery.Source: Nordic Hardware

AMD to offer $250,000 Open Architecture Prize
In 2004 AMD launched the 50x15 Initiative that will hopefully help to enable affordable Internet access and computing capability for 50 percent of the whole world's population by the year 2015. Now AMD together with SUN Microsystems presented the Open Architecture Prize to further develop this achievement and bring creative ideas to life. The 250.000 US$ prize will be donated every year for the design that fulfils the given task at best. This year's project is to create an "e-community center" - "a centralized building equipped with internet connectivity solutions designed to enable an entire community to access the transformative power of the Internet".Source: AMD
Yet another thing that doesn't work in Vista: AMD Cool N Quiet
Windows Vista brags that it is one of the most efficient operating systems ever. AMD brags about how their Cool N Quiet technology helps save power. In the age of ROHS and Energy Star compliance, it sure seems like saving energy is a very important feature in computers. However, AMD has left out this little feature of just about every one of their recent processors in Windows Vista. There have been over 100 posts in a thread dedicated to begging AMD for Cool N Quiet support on Vista. We have yet to see anything from AMD on this issue. The Inquirer has been asking AMD for a comment for quite some time, but it seems that AMD is being cool and very quiet on this subject.Source: The Inquirer
Power Consumption of today's consoles
Gaming consoles are getting more and more popular these days. That is not only because the integrated hardware is fast and games will be compatible for years but they are much more than a stupid gaming box. You can play movies utilitzing CDs, DVDs or even Blu-Ray discs, surf the net and whatnot. But what about their power consumption? All these shiny features won't come for free, do they? Now the guys from HardCoreWare come into play. They took a PS3, a Wii and a XBOX 360, fired them up with different tasks and compared the power consumption to a mid sized gaming rig. You will be surprised with what conclusion they came up with.Source: HardCoreWare
Daylight-saving glitch threatens mini-Y2K
Daylight saving time arrives a little earlier — March 11 — and stays a little later — Nov. 4 — this year. And it's bringing a problem along with it that could affect everything from stock trades to airline schedules to your BlackBerry.
Software created before the law mandating the change passed in 2005 is set to automatically advance its timekeeping by one hour on the first Sunday in April, not the second Sunday in March. Congress decided that more early evening daylight would translate into energy savings.
The result is a glitch reminiscent of the Y2K bug, when cataclysmic crashes were feared if computers interpreted the year 2000 as 1900 and couldn't reconcile time appearing to move backward. If banks and other institutions aren't properly prepared, automatic stock trades reportedly might happen at the wrong hour, buildings that unlock at a certain time could stay shut, and airline flight schedules could be scrambled.MSNBC

Intel Research Chip Advances 'Era Of Tera'
SANTA CLARA, Calif., Feb. 11, 2007 - Intel Corporation researchers have developed the world's first programmable processor that delivers supercomputer-like performance from a single, 80-core chip not much larger than the size of a finger nail while using less electricity than most of today's home appliances. This is the result of the company's innovative 'Tera-scale computing' research aimed at delivering Teraflop -- or trillions of calculations per second --performance for future PCs and servers. Technical details of the Teraflop research chip will be presented at the annual Integrated Solid State Circuits Conference (ISSCC) this week in San Francisco.

The Dynasties of China
The Sui Dynasty
The Sui Dynasty was found by Wendi and Wendi was also the first emperor. Wendi reunified China. Wendi did so by using earlier dynasties as models, he worked to build a centralized government. Wendi restored order, created a new legal code, and reformed the bureaucracy. He also made sure that a policy was created to provide all adult males with land and to ensure that they had grain available to them. The greatest accomplishment was the grand canal which is a 1,000 mile waterway linked northern and southern China. This made it much easier for them to exchange resources. The development of the Canal took several years to complete. Wendi forced lots of peasant's to work on the Canal and other projects. The conditions were very hard on the peasants and thousands of labors died. The fall of the Sui dynasty was due to a series of failed military campaigns. It was official in 618 an official assassinated Wendi and the Su dynasty came to an end.
The Tang Dynasty
When the Sui general seized power and found the tang dynasty. The tang dynasty ruled China for nearly 300 years. Cultural achievement's and prosperity were accomplished under the Tang rule. The Tang dynasty government and other institutions served as models across east Asia. The tang spread their beliefs and influenced all across East Asia. Their capital was located at Chang'an and they had a second capital located at Luoyang. The tang made sure that the government control remained centralized and that it was their main focus. Tang rulers also created a flexible law code which became a model for law codes in Korea and Japan. Lots of the Tang's expansion was during the rule of Taizong one of China's most admired emperors. The Tang dynasty declined in the 750s, around 755 the government became very weak. Also the military defeats led to the loss of tang lands in central Asia and the North. Finally a powerful emperor in 907 was killed and that was the end of the Tang dynasty.
The Song Dynasty
The song dynasty ruled for 300 years and within those years they produced great achievements and prosperity. Under this rule China became the most advanced civilization in the world. The Songs Capital was the Kaifeng and restored centralized government control. To enlarge their empire they enlarged the government bureaucracy. They also developed a new form of Confucianism, called Neo-Confucianism. The Civil service exams were very hard to pass and if you did pass this exam then you became a scholar-official (educated members of the government). Some cultural achievements were in literature and art. The tang period produced some of China's greatest poets, the poems were manly written about expressed feelings about Confucianism or the horrors of war, and others were written about friendships, the joys of life, and nature. Chinese paintings were also very popular during this time, some other things that were used were exquisite objects made out of clay. In the department of Science and technology one of the greatest achievements was gun powder and this dramatically impacted how they fought in war. Another achievement was the development of the magnetic compass. New irrigation techniques were also developed to grow two or three crops a year instead of just one. Trade expanded through this dynasty as well due to the help of roads and canals. Foot binding for Women was becoming very common. This was mostly common in wealthy women because their husbands wanted them to be waited on and this way it made it very hard for the to walk.
