SAPPHIRE Technology has just added a new silent cooled model to its extensive range of ATI-based graphics cards. The award winning ULTIMATE Series is SAPPHIRE Technology's Silent Cooled product line. The SAPPHIRE HD 5550 ULTIMATE is a new graphics card aimed at the mainstream market, whist sharing many of the exciting features of the latest high end series. The SAPPHIRE HD 5500 series is based on the latest graphics architecture from the ATI division of AMD, built in its 40nm process. It supports the advanced graphical features of Microsoft DirectX 11, and delivers superb video clarity and visual effects, whilst consuming very low power levels. The SAPPHIRE HD 5550 ULTIMATE is equipped with 1GB of DDR2 memory, with clock speeds of 550MHz core and 800MHz effective for the memory. It has 320 Stream processors and supports Microsoft DirectX 11 as well as accelerating applications compatible with ATI Stream. The PCB is a SAPPHIRE original design and the whole graphics system is cooled by a heatpipe based wrap-over heatsink. It has no fan, so is totally silent in operation and maintenance free. This model has the output configuration of DVI, HDMI and VGA, the most flexible combination of monitor outputs and allowing the use of HDMI enabled monitors or digital TVs to be directly driven with both video and sound signals over a single HDMI cable. As the core technology is low power, no external power connection is required, making this series ideal for system upgrades or mainstream PCs that do not have high end power supplies. Native CrossFire support allows two or more cards to be used together for additional performance on a suitable CrossFireX compatible mainboard. On the HD 5500 series, CrossFireX is supported in software by the driver, and no additional interconnect is required. The SAPPHIRE HD 5500 series is fully compatible with current DirectX10.1, DirectX 10 and DirectX 9.0 games and applications, but will show stunning new levels of detail, transparency and lighting effects in newer releases of software using DirectX 11. All of this comes with very low active power consumption as well as Dynamic Power Management delivering super low-power operation (10W) in 2D or idle. Ideal for media applications, the SAPPHIRE HD 5550 has an on board hardware UVD (Unified Video decoder) considerably reducing CPU load and delivering smooth decoding of Blu-ray™ and HD DVD content for both VC-1 and H.264 codecs, as well as Mpeg files. In all of the SAPPHIRE HD 5000 series the UVD has been enhanced to be able simultaneously to decode two 1080p HD video streams and to be able to display HD video in high quality with Windows Aero mode enabled. HDMI capability has also been upgraded to HDMI 1.3a with Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio support. The HD 5500 series products support the latest features demanded by Microsoft DirectX 11, including DirectCompute 11 instructions, hardware Tessellation and multi-threaded communications with the system CPU. These combine to provide new capabilities for the interaction between transparent objects, new lighting and accelerated post processing effects as well as physics calculations and accelerated video transcoding. They also support ATI Stream, accelerating supported applications such as video transcoding and rendering tasks by executing instructions on the GPU architecture rather than the system CPU. The SAPPHIRE HD 5500 series is supported by AMD's DirectX 11 WHQL certified graphics driver which delivers support for all of the key DirectX 11 level features required for new gaming experiences and acceleration of next generation high performance applications.
"Ultimat" and "Superfast memory". You just know at who they aim with this card. Because it's not either of these two words...
If it'll make the rest of my PC quieter by absorbing the noise from the other components, I'm all for it.
This is not as GOOD as the other one. It only offers -10db, while the other is a GOOD one. Obviously a GOOD one is better than a silent one.
technically that might even be possible by playing back inverted fan noise from the pc .. like in noise canceling headphones *runs off to patent office*
Do you think that might actually be possible? I haven't researched noise cancellation, but i think if not really researched properly and also done properly it would just make even more noise. But hey, interesting idea
put this chick I'm seeing in the same room as you and you'll think of a ton of "noise cancelling" ideas... im over it.
if that really works, i bet you can make a heap of money with it! i would be the first to buy such a device! Silent Delta Fans!
obviously if not done right it will come out wrong... that can be said for most of life thoug it is indeed "technically" possible... but the device would have to scan and react, as the noise is rarely exactly the same, even with the same components... everything from air pressure to how tight the screws are makes a difference, and the range is too wide for any single or even multiple frequency device to work. you would need a device that scans and calculates, then outputs the proper noise to cancel with. again technically possible but for sure soo expensive that it's not feasible atm. that all being said, i'm pretty sure w1zz was just being lighthearted in his response. though it is technically possible i do not think he seriously thought it something to pursue atm.

Organizer: Shutdown Could Hurt Biochar Conference
The federal government shutdown is potentially threatening the United States Biochar Initiative's four-day conference starting this weekend at UMass Amherst.
Conference director, Karen Ribeiro, says twelve people scheduled to speak are employees of the United States Department of Agriculture who are on furlough because of the shutdown. Their research focuses on biochar, an organic soil enhancer.
"It's unfortunate because this research is really cutting edge and could help propel the industry. We'll definitely have a loss there by not having the research presented," Ribeiro says.
Ribeiro says she's trying to find a different way, such as video conference, to present the panelists' research.
Congressman Jim McGovern is scheduled to give the keynote address on Sunday. McGovern's office says that as long as there are no votes in the House that day, he plans to be there.

Research funding for University of Sussex graduates
4:50pm Thursday 20th September 2012 in News
Buy this photo » Lekshmy Balakrishnan working on breast cancer research
By Natalie Laurence
Talented second year university students have each been awarded a bursary up to £1,800 in a new research scheme to inspire future academics.
From research on bees to surrealism, a total of 22 University of Sussex undergraduates have been awarded a Junior Research Associate bursary (JRA) to fund up to two months of research in the county over the summer.
The pioneering scheme, run by the Doctoral School, was made possible by alumni donations.
JRA is to encourage ambitious undergraduates to consider postgraduate study and a career in research.
The students, who have excelled in undergraduate study, either assisted on research projects or conducted their own research in a wide variety of areas.
Yesterday (September 19) students presented their work at an exhibition on the university campus.
Surrealist English undergraduate, Claudia Cockrell, explored the life of Sussex man Edward James, a substantial figure in the surrealist movement and collaborator with Salvador Dali.
Wild flower forage
Miss Cockrell said: "The opportunity to gain experience working in a research-intensive atmosphere and building on my academic portfolio was something not to be missed.
"To also have it funded was the icing on the cake."
Life sciences student Katherine Fensome spent the summer on the Downs, recording flower species for a survey of wild flower forage for bees.
She was working at the University's Laboratory of Apiculture and Social Insects, as the team is currently researching several projects investigating honey bee health and behaviour as part of the Sussex Plan.
Other notable work ranged from breast cancer research by Lekshmy Balakrishnan, work on one of the world's biggest physics experiments by Jack Miller and Melvyn Ansell who conducted molecular research into the chemistry of greenhouse gases.
Professor Richard Black, head of Global Studies and speaking on behalf of organisers the Doctoral School, said: "The JRA scheme has proved highly popular among our undergraduates and there has been heavy competition for places.
"The work produced by our JRA students is of an extraordinary quality and bodes well for the future of top-flight research at Sussex.
"Our alumni deserve special thanks for supporting such a rewarding and innovative scheme."

For the first time in Southeastern Conference history, one school claimed outright league titles for both its men's and women's teams, and for only the seventh time in college basketball history, one school had both of its teams in the Final Four.
Relive the thrills, the drama, the heart-stopping wins and the electrifying celebrations, and watch as LSU's teams captured the imagination of the country in their march through March.

Cape Town offers more than just beaches, gourmet food and wine farms – it also has a busy nightlife. The city provides those who want to let their hair down a chance to do so in one of the best locations in the world, and clearly the Mother City has some of the best places to do it.

Mich. pilot flying to see family on Thanksgiving dies in Antrim County small plane crash
Police find pilot Roger Crawford dead in Cessna wreckage after relatives report he missed family gathering
A pilot has been found dead in the wreckage of his small plane after missing a family gathering on Thanksgiving.
The Antrim County sheriff's office says deputies and state police found the body of 68-year-old Roger Crawford Friday morning in Mancelona, about 140 miles north of Grand Rapids.
Sheriff's officials described Crawford as an experienced pilot "with many years of commercial flight time."
Relatives contacted deputies Thursday night and reported Crawford had not shown up at a family gathering in Frankfort.
Federal Aviation Administration spokesman Tony Molinaro says Crawford's Cessna 310B two-engine propeller plane was flying from Gaylord to Cadillac.

Manatee County Sheriff's Office detectives have arrested an East County tennis pro for child pornoraphy.
According to sheriff's office reports, Donald Kristen Gagnon, aka Kris Gannon, 59, brought his computer to an East County repair shop at about 1 p.m., July 21. According to the owner of the shop, Gagnon's Dell Inspiron laptop contained images that depicted teenage boys posing nude as well as in underwear. The images were located in a folder titled "students" in the "My Pictures" folder on the hard drive, the report said.
The repair shop contacted law enforcement. Det. Todd Sellitto responded, seized the computer and obtained a warrant. After an extensive forensic examination of the computer, there were thousands of images of child erotica depicting young boys posing in their underwear and multiple images of children either performing and or posing in sexually explicit activities. Information obtained during the examination suggests that there may be children who could have been or are being exploited and or victimized.
Gagnon, the tennis pro and owner of Creekside Tennis Academy, was arrested at 8 p.m., July 27, on multiple charges of child pornography. He is being held on $45,000 bond.
Anyone with information regarding incidents relating to Gagnon should contact Det. Todd Sellitto, 747-3011, Ext. 1909.

MIAMI (AP) -- Whether it's giving 110 percent or taking it one game at a time, you've always got to remember it is what it is.
In other words, the formula for winning the game before the game is simple: bring on the clichΘs!
Notre Dame and Alabama are already winners in that regard, spending the days leading up to the BCS championship talking about a lot of things, all while trying not to say much of anything.
For players trying to sound coherent about their subject matter while avoiding the pitfalls of blurting out something contentious, clichΘs are like a warm, comforting dish whipped up by your mom. Plus, they aren't going to be the least bit offensive to the other team. Chances are, they're saying most of the same things.

First of all i am from norway so sorry for my english.
Got my ReadyNas Duo (2x1tb) yesterday. Want to use it in my home. Backup pictures and videoes.
I also wanted to use the Bittorrent that came with it. But that seems to be a no go, since torrents use magnet link.
First of all. Getting it online, so i can log on to it from anyware. Do you have to use Netgears Remote or is it a better way.
Had a synology, and i must admit i find that more easy to use then this. But i wanted to try something new.
How about torrents, what addon do i use when bittorrent wont work?
When it comes to backup, do every computer need to have Netgears Raidar?
i feel completely lost with this nas.Lol. So if i dont get it up the next few days i will have to go back to Synology

What I Do: Colleen's Travel Beauty Emergency Kit
What to do when you forget to pack your favorite beauty products. Try a whole new look now with our Instant Makeup Makeover!
By Colleen Moody
Colleen Moody, Web Editor at CosmoGirl.com
Colleen's beauty stats: Early 20s; thick, short, curly hair, never dyed before; clear skin with the occasional breakout.
"There is nothing more frustrating than going away for the weekend, unzipping your cosmetic case, and realizing you forgot (insert favorite beauty product here). These panic-stricken moments happen to me more often than I like to admit, which is why I've learned how to work with the basics when traveling. Here are the essential beauty products that double up when I have those 'oops!' moments on the road. Not only will they help you save face, you'll lighten your packing load by learning to bring only what you really need."
Benefit Boi-ing Concealer
"This heavy-duty concealer is great doubled as an eye concealer when I forget to pack my usual tube. It goes on light and won't look like you've added a batter of makeup to your face. I use it to hide blemishes, dark circles, and whatever else my face throws at me for the day."
$18, sephora.com
Alberto VO5 Tea Therapy Clarifying Shampoo in Vanilla Mint Tea
"I never take my expensive shampoo on the road with me because if I leave it in the hotel shower, I'll be mentally kicking myself the whole way back. This VO5 shampoo is super-inexpensive and lathers up thick enough to use as a substitute to shaving cream for your legs. I also use this trick at home when I want to save some extra cash."
$1.49, VO5.com
Smashbox Photo Finish Lipstick
"Forgot your blush? Don't panic! You can use your favorite hue of lipstick to solve this issue. Using your finger, lightly dab color from your lipstick onto the apples of your cheeks. It may not give you that allover color you love, but it will prevent you from looking washed-out in pictures. I find this creamy pink shade in Sweet matches my blush color the closest."
$22, sephora.com
Maybelline Line Works Ultra-Liner
"Warning: This one's for the makeup pros only. For me, going out without mascara on is equivalent to leaving the house naked. I feel less confident about my look and, therefore, my self-esteem suffers. To fix this, I started using liquid eyeliner in case I run out of mascara or leave it behind on a trip. By very lightly brushing the wand on my top lids (the bottom ones will have to suck it up this time), I can achieve a faux mascara look. Just make sure not to use too much, or else you will be wearing it everywhere but your eyelashes!"
$6.29, drugstore.com
Dove Ultimate Stay Smooth Anti-Perspirant Deodorant
"Forgetting your perfume on a trip isn't the worst thing that could happen, but having it definitely adds that extra kick to your outfit. If I leave my favorite fragrance behind, I dab my deodorant on my wrists to get the same effect. Dove has some great light scents like Wild Rose, so it doesn't smell like you took a bath in baby powder."

ALBANY,GA -- The Coffee County Sheriff's Office has identified a suspect in a shooting that happened last Sunday.
Officials are looking for Benjamin Mora-Tinajero who they say goes by several aliases including Benjamin Mora, David Rios, and Victor Rodriguez. Mora-Tinajero is five-foot-six and weighs 130 pounds.
On Sunday four men were shot; two were airlifted from the scene to different hospitals and the other two were transported to Coffee Regional Medical Center where they were later airlifted to Savannah.
Officials searched for the shooter - who they now believe is Mora-Tinajero - using several k-9 units and a helicopter but were unable to locate him.
The conditions of the victims are still unknown at this time.
Mora-Tinajero is wanted on aggravated assault charges.
Anyone with information on this case should call the coffee county sheriff's office at 912-384-4227.

in response to find_a_way:
Oldsalt, once again the point of my statement was missed. What this is about is not what is happening now but what has been happening for more than a century in this country. The civil war was mainly about state rights, not slavery. The tenth amendment is what is getting trampled my Washington DC, But once again a democrat chooses to think otherwise. This abuse by government has been going more than half the life of our republic. The restrictions put in place on the government by the Unites States constitution have been ignored far too long by the high handed approach to governance in DC. Most of what is illegal today was not illegal even 100 years ago. But since the civil war being pushed by Lincoln to force one sides beliefs on all, we have all lost dearly. If you have a job, a larger protion of your pay is being confiscated in the form of payroll taxes every year to try and keep programs in place to strenghten the governments control over our lives. Social security is anything but security. If the same money put in by people into this government Ponsi scheme were put into private savings accounts netting a measley 2% annually, all of us who have been paying in since we got our first jobs would have a cushy retirement to look forward to. But since it is constantly spent every day to give it to retirees, who should have had their money independant of government theft, and what is not used for that is spent by the government and has been for 30 years or so. The trust fund is full of nothing but IOU's from the government, which means it will either collapse in 10 or 15 yeras when the baby boomers start to retire, or even sooner when the younger generations begin to notice how badly they are getting hosed on it and find a way to collapse so that they might have some hope of having a life. Just the interest on the insane federal debt is now 9.2 % of last years budget or 261 Billion dollars. The rate we are going now it will be 20% or more just to borrow money to pay China until they quit accepting our promise that it will somehow get repaid. 30 years ago was the time to fix it but Washington decided that someone else can fix it later. Well, later has come and gone and now defaulting on the debt may be the only thing that can happen. Both parties are culpable and to think otherwise is dangerouly naive.
That is not going against the Constitution, that is simply Democracy. Majority rules. Pretty sure if cards we dealt the other way, slavery would have expanded to new states and territories, had Lincoln not been elected. I've said it before, "States Rights" is easier to swallow than "Fight against Slavery" for any country that looses the war.

A SHOT FOR ALL SEASONS: New technology has helped to identify parts of the influenza virus that might be universal targets for a vaccine. One group of researchers has developed a synthetic vaccine that might be able to protect against just about any type of flu in existence--or that might come into existence.

The annual jab fest for the seasonal flu is already underway, scaring needle-wary youngsters and leaving many grown-ups wondering if the annual stick in the arm is right for them.
In recent years research has shown that the mélange of strains in each year's flu shot and exposure to previous flus can provide some immunity decades later to people exposed to closely related influenza iterations. For example, people who were born before the mid-1950s (when H1N1 stopped circulating) showed a better defense against the recent H1N1 virus. But because the virus is so adept at eluding the body's immune system via mutation, many new varieties crop up each year. After its latest battle with H1N1, a U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention committee recommended in February that everyone six months and older get the annual vaccine, a step that should improve immunity against future pandemics as well as seasonal cycles of the flu.
The hunt for a universal flu vaccine, a single shot that would provide lifelong immunity, has been going on for decades, and many teams of researchers have been on the case. The effort is complicated because there are some 16 types of key surface proteins (hemagglutinin) that help the virus bind to host cells, in addition to the several varieties of viral neuraminidase proteins. (These proteins are what the "H" and "N" stand for in viral designations such as H1N1.) Flu vaccines work by introducing a killed version of circulating virus strains, which trains the body's immune system to recognize and attack similar invaders in the future. Changes in the viruses' proteins help it evade identification by the immune system.
A series of discoveries by different groups of researchers have zeroed in on a highly conserved (nonmutated) region of the virus. And a new study, published online October 18 in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, has piggybacked on these findings to develop synthetic vaccine that has been effective in warding off several different types of influenza in mice. How does it work—and could it work in humans?
Scientific American spoke with Peter Palese, a co-author of the new study and chair of the Department of Microbiology at Mount Sinai School of Medicine in New York City, to find out the status of the quest for a universal flu shot.
[An edited transcript of the interview follows.]
So, why do we have to get a flu shot every year?
Some viruses—for example measles, mumps, rubella, poliovirus—do not change over time. Therefore, one vaccination—or one course of vaccinations—may last, if not a whole lifetime, a very long time. The difference with influenza viruses is they undergo a dramatic change every one to five years. The virus is really changing because of what we call antigenic drift and shift.
But this makes it very complex for both vaccine production and administration. Surveillance programs must be used each year—and based on the selection of strains, we usually have three influenza strains in a vaccine each year.
Each year two or sometimes all three of the strains of influenza need to be changed. The need for every annual vaccination is a result of these antigenic changes in the virus each year.
Can some immunity from past shots or exposures protect you against seasonal or epidemic strains, like some older adults who seemed to already have some immunity to H1N1?
The new pandemic H1N1 actually turns out to be related to previous pandemic strains. So the older people are more protected than the younger ones, which is a very unusual situation. One of the few things that get better with old age.
Are we close to being able to develop a universal flu vaccine that would confer immunity against all strains of influenza?
The basis for the new understanding that there might be some universal vaccine possible is that several groups, including ours, identified and isolated monoclonal antibodies. There was some advance in the last one and a half years in that people were able to identify cross-reactive monoclonal antibodies—antibodies that can be protective against a variety of strains. That was not known before, and the reason for the discovery is that the technology has become much better.
We were able to identify what this antibody recognizes. This antibody recognizes this conserved region, which is called a conserved stalk of the virus's hemagglutinin, which is like a mushroom.
The antibodies were against the stalk of this mushroom, and by using this mushroom stalk only, we made synthetic peptides of this stalk. We were able to show in mice that this virus was able to induce a cross-reactive immunoresponse.
The second very exciting thing is that it's a synthetic peptide, which makes it much easier to put into use.

Mousa Dembele scores on debut as Tottenham Hotspur draw with Norwich City
5:29pm Saturday 1st September 2012 in Local Sport
Tottenham's indifferent start to the season has continued after Robert Snodgrass scored five minutes from time to earn Norwich City a 1-1 draw at White Hart Lane.
New signing Mousa Dembele had put Andre Villas-Boas' men on course for their first win of the campaign when he netted add but strike after 68 minutes.
But the hosts were made to settle for a point when the Canaries midfielder found space in the area and fired past Brad Friedel.
To add to Tottenham's frustration, they also saw substitute Tom Huddlestone dismissed in the final stages after receiving a straight red card.
The result leaves Spurs 14th in the fledgling Premier League table.

Growing up in Hungary during the Iron Curtain-era in the '80s left littleroom for musically inclined youngsters toget their hands on, or even see, a Gibson orFender guitar. In fact, any electric guitar atthat time was outrageously expensive, andgood ones were virtually impossible to find.Where there's a will, there is often a way,and the three brothers from the Benedekfamily—Attila, Csaba, and Árpád—weredetermined enough to start building theirown instruments so they could create therock, blues, and jazz they were becomingincreasingly interested in playing.
Globe Bass SC neckthrough
New for 2012 and recently introduced at the NAMM show, this bass boasts a single cutaway and neck-through design as evidenced by its name. The 24-fret neck features a brass nut, double-acting truss rod, and is topped with a rosewood or padouk fretboard. Other features on this radius-carved, Hungarian poplar bass include Fibenare's Twin bridge, Gotoh GB707 tuning machines, and a pair handwound, wooden-coil pickups in wooden housings called Fibenare Vazuls.
roadmaster ' 56 Also introduced at the 2012 NAMM show, the Roadmaster ' 56 is Fibenare's tribute to one of the most revolutionary and timeless designs in guitar mak- ing. This Tele-style Roadmaster ' 56 has a maple burl top and utilizes bird's- eye maple for both the neck and fretboard. With a Fibenare Roadmaster bridge and a set of Fibenare's handwound Roadmaster pickups, this ode to the Tele is ready to twang.

World Money Analyst
Introducing… World Money Analyst
From Mauldin Economics
For six months, we worked hard to find, recruit and enlist a globally diversified team of successful analysts and investors to share their deep understanding of their backyard markets – and the very best ways to invest in those markets.
Their unique analysis is brought together in a breakthrough new service – World Money Analyst – designed specifically to help you and other smart investors step off the shaky treadmill that comes from keeping all your investments, and all your assets, in a single politically controlled jurisdiction.
Simply stated, with World Money Analyst you'll have your own team of highly competent analysts, strategically positioned around the globe, working at your side to search the world for the next big opportunities.
You'll have a decisive advantage over single-market investors.
Meet The World Money Analyst Team
First and foremost, the contributing analysts whose work you'll be privy to in the pages of World Money Analyst are not slick "talking head" brokerage firm pitchmen, nor are they Ivy League academics pontificating about the unknowable.
Rather, they are internationally sophisticated, in-the-trenches investors who spend every day making money for themselves and their clients. An example: In our first issue of World Money Analyst, readers were introduced to Claudio Maulhardt, the Buenos Aires-based partner of Copernico Capital Partners.
It literally took us months to convince the publicity-shy Claudio to serve as our Latin American analyst, but we're glad we kept at it.
- That's because Claudio is a conspicuous winner. Despite sizable corrections in most Latin American markets in 2011 – Brazil (down 18.8%); Argentina (down 32%); Chile (down 13%); Mexico (down 4.9%) – Claudio's fund was up 4.85%.
As you don't need us to tell you, anyone can make money in a rising market. But it takes a special kind of investor to make money in one that's falling.
And Claudio's in very good company. Among your other team members:
Grant Williams, Global Macro. Grant is a Singapore-based portfolio manager and strategist for the Testudo Fund as well as author of our very own popular investment letters, Bull's Eye Investor and Things That Make You Go Hmmm . In addition to keeping an eye out for opportunities in the region, Grant is part of the analyst group tasked with positioning World Money Analyst readers in powerful emerging investment trends.
Gordon G. Chang, China. Author of The Coming Collapse of China and columnist for Forbes.com, Gordon's analysis on the outlook for the Chinese juggernaut has regularly been a wake-up call for financial sinophiles. With China's economy now showing signs of fracturing, his unique insights and exclusive analysis for World Money Analyst have never been more important or timely.
Stephen Belmont, commodities market strategies. Tapping into his deep experience as chief market strategist and senior partner with the Rutsen Meier Belmont Group, Stephen will provide you his best trading ideas in global commodity markets.
Alexei Medved, Russia and the CIS. With an MBA from Wharton who pioneered East European investments in 1989 while working for a major global investment bank, Alexei Medved is a hands-on (and very successful) investor in Russian equities and bonds.
For the record, the Russian stock market beat all the other major stock markets in the world for the years 2000-2011 – and by a very wide margin: the US market was essentially flat over the period while Russia was up 671%! Maybe there's a more knowledgeable investor in these markets, but we don't know of one.
Chuck Butler, currency watch. In any international investment, the currency component can enhance (or hinder) your returns. In each monthly edition of World Money Analyst, Chuck Butler, head currency analyst and president of EverBank World Markets, guides you on a quick trip around the globe to find opportunities in the latest developments in world currencies.
Adrian Day, international special situations. Adrian Day is a British-born writer and money manager, a graduate of the London School of Economics, and president of his own money management firm, Adrian Day Asset Management, where he specializes in global diversification and resource equities. He has been a frequent guest on CNBC and Wall Street Journal radio. His latest book is Investing in Resources: How to Profit from the Outsized Potential and Avoid the Risks (published by Wiley & Sons).
Dirk Steinhoff, Europe. Prior to joining BFI Capital Group of Zurich as Managing Director, Portfolio Management (US clients), Dirk Steinhoff had acted as an independent asset manager for over 15 years. In addition, he successfully founded and built two companies in the realm of infrastructure and real estate management. With such experience, Dirk's unique perspective makes him an excellent judge of an investment's character.
Ankur Shah, South East Asia Equities. A specialist in South East Asian equities, Ankur Shah has worked as both a buy-side investment analyst for a global long/short equity hedge fund… as well as a sell-side analyst for an emerging markets investment bank. His eight years of emerging-market equity research experience – not to mention a proven value-investing methodology – makes him a perfect addition to the World Money Analyst team.
Axel Merk, Currencies/Internationalization. An authority on currencies and a pioneer in the use of strategic currency investing to seek diversification. A graduate of Brown University, Axel is the President and CIO of Merk Investments, manager of the Merk Funds, a firm he founded to make his investment philosophy accessible to retail investors.
He is a regular guest on the Wall Street Journal, Barron's, Financial Times, Bloomberg, and CNBC, and brings a unique perspective on the global economy, gold, and currencies.
Kevin Brekke, Europe, global investment vehicles. From his strategically positioned office in Switzerland, Managing Editor Kevin Brekke monitors the latest developments in his European backyard and digs in deep on issues related to financial privacy, global precious metals storage opportunities, the best financial houses to do business with and much more.
The world is a big place, and there's no need to remain a "stay-at-home investor" with the deep pool of talent you'll tap into with each monthly edition of World Money Analyst.
Smart investors understand the concept of risk and reward. In this case, you have zero risk, only the potential of a lifetime of big rewards, free of the threats that come from being entirely invested in a single market, in a single currency, in a single political jurisdiction.
Try World Money Analyst for yourself and receive our No-Questions-Asked Total Satisfaction Guarantee. If at any time within 90 days you decide World Money Analyst isn't exactly what you are looking for, cancel and receive a 100% refund! Simple as that.
You'll make the right choice.

Darwin's on 4th
Online Reservations
This was such an incredible experience many restaurants have been so disappointing to me and spending a lot of money for a suboptimal experience but not Darwin's they delivered the best of everything.
The food and Darwins is delicious and very original. We had the cerveche and crab cakes for apps. The duck and sword fish for entrees. Everything was well seasoned and very flavorful.
Friendly service....excellent food,, beautifully presented, well seasoned, a real treat for the palate.
Darwin's has to be in the top 5 conversation for Sarasota/Bradenton. The food is excellent, the pork taco app off the charts, and the ambience fantastic with the exposed original (late 1800's) brick, tin and brass fittings and cool eclectic music. Get there between 5-7 and enjoy 1/2 price apps at the bar and sample the great beers churned out by the onsite brewery.
We enjoyed the food. The flavors was fresh and light.
Darwin's is such a unique restaurant... everything about it is appealing! We have never had a bad meal. The food is excellent and creative, the service impeccable and on top of that, house brewed beer! It doesn't get any better!
The food was fantastic we had the braised short ribs and the hamburger both were outstanding and a good selection of wine to go with them. Service was great and we tried some of the appetizers all was fantastic as was the goat cheese ice cream served with the dessert. We have traveled to Peru and the food brought good memories back although the food was much better at Darwin's then we had in Peru
Darrwin's on 4th was recommended to us and it did not disappoint. Food was great and so was the service. A very happening spot, it was packed!!!
Great food, great atmosphere. Our service was a little slow to start but we didn't mind because we were enjoying chatting with our friends.
I had read about Darwin's on 4th for several months before finally making my reservations, and I'm so glad I did. the menu is ecclectic and, though a tad pricey, there are items to serve most budgets. I was pleased to find entrees and smaller-portion offerings, and my quinoa-based dish was wonderful. Nice service, nice atmosphere. This will stay on my list of restaurants to which I'd take out-of-town guests.
Everything we had was fantastic. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a great meal.
Great food in a neat atmosphere, but the service is a little slow
We have never been disappointed. Portions are large enough to take some home and just as tasty the next day!
food was to die for and service was great! Lobster tacos were amazing!
I've lived in Sarasota for 5 years and I don't get out to the new restaurants and hot spots as often as I'd like, so I was happy to get a deal on Living Social that MADE me go out - I was very pleasantly surprised by Darwin's. It has a great atmosphere, great food, FABULOUS desserts. A great place, all in all. They even accomadated our party of 8 which seemed pretty large for them. Drinks could have been better for as much as they are, but it wouldn't keep me from coming back. In fact, my next trip to Darwin's is already planned! :)
Fantastic, gourmet Peruvian food. Really had quite a gastronomic feast, I highly recommend this gem and will seek it out next time I am in the area.
The food was amazing and service was fabulous too! Lobster tacos and ceviche are not to be missed. Great for a night out with friends, girls night or date night. Love the valet parking as well. Great overall experience!
Pleasantly surprised. Well-executed meal with a flair of Peruvian but without the over-indulgence in local spices and native food elements. Lamb chops with excellent potatoes, duck with pea infused risotto, lobster and black bean tacos, etc. American core with Peruvian sauces and accents. Great opportunity to take a curmudgeonly grandparent to a restaurant they will enjoy that isn't part of a local chain. Refreshingly different and appeals to all ages. Great bar scene with live music as well
Darwin's is fabulous! Food is so fresh and full of flavor! Everything we tried was fantastic! Happy hour 5-7 and all apps are 1/2 price. Great way to try several things and share. Classic ceviche, shrimp spring rolls, and pork tacos are awesome just to name a few! Must try! Service is fantastic!
The food was delicious, ambiance is differantt than any place in Sarasota, very urban underground feel. The live music was great and added to the fun vibe. It's a great place for a mixes crowd.
Large open bar area with really great music last Friday night. Beautiful restaurant with great food and efficient but not particularly friendly service. I would definitely go back.
Interesting food with a South American accent. Really liked the chimichurri, wife loved it. Nice variety of menu choices. Quality very good. Liked the ambience, music for sure. Nice view outside. IMHO, prices a little high for the quality, given the competition/local ethnic food choices. Other than that, really enjoyed it.
I had been to Darwin's before, I suggested to one of my best friends we go for a different venue downtown to catch up on each other's news in nice vibrant setting, - we did! Food, service ambiance were all top notch! Thank you!
went out with friends and had an awesome night. i think we are still coming down from the food high. and i impressed someone who knows their stuff and did not expect to be impressed.
Food & Service are very good. Total expense (especially for drinks and wine) is just not justifiable.
Menu was exciting, food was fantastic! Display kitchen was great to watch at kitchen bar. Can't wait to return. Best new restaurant to open in Sarasota in a long time.
Great food, great brewed onsite craft beers and a terrific ambiance. Highly recommended.
My husband's short ribs were delicious but my cod was dry......usually i love the food here but was disappointed in my meal this time.
Had a fabulous dining experience at Darwins. The menu is really exciting and when he food arrived it looked beautiful. The tastes of everything ordered were different to anything eaten before. Really really yummy food. Our server as very helpful in guiding us to make excellent choices. Fabulous restaurant. Go there people !!!!
The best way to enjoy Darwins on 4th is as an adventurer. If you don't know a lot about Peruvian food, ask the wait staff; we found their advice to be very helpful. You can order an interesting entree or do what our table of four did: Select half a dozen appetizers (called Piqueos) and other smaller offerings and share. I particularly liked the lettuce wraps and the Ceviches -- in our case tuna on watermelon. There are several types of tacos; we went with the pork and loved them. Select items that you might not think of at another restaurant. Your taste buds will thank you!
Plates are beautifully done, servers are nice, house rolls are quite tasty and I love the Marron Ale.
My husband and I have been to the bar area a couple of times for happy hour. Although the food was delish, the female bartenders act very indifferent and almost rude. I guess we're not "cool" enough for them! Luckily, due to purchasing a Living Social coupon, we gave the restaurant a try and so glad we did. My husband had the atun tuna and I had the short ribs. Both dishes were absolutely wonderful! They were perfectly seasoned and was some of the best food since moving to Sarasota. We finished with the tres leche cake which was a great way to finish the meal?I forgot to mentioned we had the shrimp causa as an appetizer and it was also wonderful. I'm also happy to report the service is much better in the dining room! We can't wait to return
We chose Darwin's to celebrate our anniversary and it was a great choice! The food and service were excellent and we will return!
we were a party of 4 and all of us enjoyed our meals with no exceptions. Service was excellent. 2 ordered the cod dish which was extremely good because of a creamy but not heavy sauce as well as lots of mushrooms. The skirt steak diner was pleased and the portion was enough for her to take a little home. Not sure what the 4th person had but remember he cleaned his plate. We will all return again.
As a first time visitor, I was hesitant as I had never even had Peruvian food before. It was quite surprising to say the least. My husband and I had a cocktail at the bar first before being seated at our table. The bartenders were attentive and informative, very nice and held a very good conversation with us. Once we were seated, we were immediately greeted by our server. Alejandra was awesome. (not sure I spelled her name right....sorry). Steak was good but salty, cesar salad had way too many onions for my liking and clam chowder was a bit more like potato soup with bacon and some clams thrown in. Duck was special of the night and my husband loved it. I will definitely go back to try other things on the menu.
Awesome Peruvian food. Love the Charapa beer, made on premises with pepper. It has a little kick in the finish.
I drove over an hour to come here and it did not disappoint! Better Peruvian food and drink than you'll get in Peru! Appetizers like anticuchos and ceviche were phenomenal! Microbrews including chicha and pisco aand margaritas were amazing. Entres where best I've EVER had ie Malbec short ribs. Wait staff and ambiance were top notch.
We LOVE coming to Darwins where we know the food is creative and delicious. Two of our favorites are the Arctic Char and the Skirt Steak. The seasonings and sides are superb. Our only small disappointment was that our son was excited to order a beer flight to try some of the more interesting Darwin's brews and they were out of two of the 3 flavors of beer.
The service could be a tad faster! but overall pleasant experience.
This was our second visit to Darwin's and everything was as good or better. The dish I look forward to most is the Tuna ceviche with a delicious marinade wedged between watermelon slices. The braised short ribs are a fabulous as well. I am not a beer drinker but their dark beers beat Guinness for flavor. We will continue to keep Darwin's on our must dine list when in Sarasota .food and service are terrific!
We were there for my husband's birthday and had fabulous food and attentive service. Everything was beautifully presented, innovative and delicious. I think this is one of Sarasota's finest and most creative restaurants. Our waitress was divine..Thank you for a memorable evening. We will be back. The host was also very attentive to my elderly mother's needs and was extremely gracious, all was good but the food shone!
Love the food. Best Cerviche we have had in quite awhile.How can you improve on Ceaser salad? Well the Chef did by adding things such as Puravian peppers ,onions etc. and then choping it up,Wonderful.Steak was.good for a strip. Our children found this great restaurant and gave us a gift certificate,and we went last week for the first time.Service was excellent.Last week we made the mistake of being upstairs and you couldn't hear yourself think.Got reseated. 1st floor rear is good First time last week made the mistake of being seated upstairs and with a 3 piece combo you couldn't here anything.But wasked to be moved to a rear table on the main floor and was much better even with the terrible accoustics.One guitar was numbing.Why the need?
This is one of the best, if not the very best, restaurants in Sarasota. It's the place I had my birthday, and where I take visitors. I love the lettuce wrap with chorizo, calamari, skirt steak with plantains and more. It's vibrant (and often noisy if it's full). Love the open kitchen too.
No matter what location, Darwin serves great food. Atlantic char is served perfectly and appetizers are well worth the price. Language can be a problem for the wait staff but if you can point to the items on the menu you'll be fine. This place will only get better over time.
Four of us went to Darwin's before the theater so we got there just as they opened at 5 PM. The food is outstanding; different, unique, well presented, cooked exactly as ordered, etc. The service matched the food. Our server suggested a bottle of wine after three of us ordered the same wine by the glass. While this was our first trip to Darwin's, it will not be our last and I have already been talking it up among our friends.
fantastic happy hour and even better main dining room dinner. one of the best in Sarasota
The service was wonderful, and the ceviches were fantastic as well as the crab on mashed Peruvian potatoes.........it was to die for..........mussels were cooked to perfection, tender and wonderful...........we can't wait to go back.......thanks, Darwin...........
If you want really great food in great ambiance Darwin's is the place.
Had dinner with Peruvian friends and we all enjoyed the great quality and outstanding service from Antonio!
The food we had was really great. My husband didn't like his entree as much as I liked mine. My entree was Atun - a to-die-for sushi ahi tuna dish. The fish had seaweed on it and the most delicious pomegranate dippling sauce. Really a must return back soon place for us.


text: Elisha Graves Otis Born Aug 3 1811 - Died Apr 8 1861 Improvement in Hoisting Apparatus Elevator Brake Patent Number(s) 31,128 Inducted 1988 Elisha Graves Otis didn't invent the elevator, he invented something perhaps more important-the elevator brake-which made skyscrapers a practical reality. Invention Impact Otis had no way of knowing that this simple safety device was to alter the face of the globe, that because of it vast cities would spring up toward the sky instead of spreading toward the horizon as in the past. Inventor Bio Born on a farm near Halifax, Vermont, the youngest of six children, Otis made several attempts at establishing businesses in his early years. However, chronically poor health led to continual financial woes. Finally, in 1845, he tried to change his luck with a move to Albany, New York. There he worked as a master mechanic in the bedstead factory of O. Tingley & Company. He remained about three years and during that time invented and put into use a railway safety brake, which could be controlled by the engineer, and ingenious devices to run rails for four-poster beds and to improve the operation of turbine wheels. By 1852 he had moved to Yonkers, New York, to organize and install machinery for the bedstead firm of Maize & Burns, which was expanding. Josiah Maize needed a hoist to lift heavy equipment to the upper floor. Although hoists were not new, Otis' inventive nature had been piqued because of the equipment's safety problem. If one could just devise a machine that wouldn't fall.... He hit upon the answer, a tough, steel wagon spring meshing with a ratchet. If the rope gave way, the spring would catch and hold. In 1854 Otis dramatized his safety device on the floor of the Crystal Palace Exposition in New York. With a large audience on hand, the inventor ascended in an elevator cradled in an open-sided shaft. Halfway up, he had the hoisting cable cut with an axe. The platform held fast and the elevator industry was on its way. |

Area 51
Poor Tampa. Things just haven't been the same for you since the death metal explosion you experienced oh so long ago. Oh, but at last, there's a band to hoist the metal flag high in the air and to keep it standing. Knee deep in their UFO conspiracy theory, Area 51 is that band.
Only not really.
Take Nevermore and remove the talent and increase the irritating attitude. There's definitely sort of a byzantine or middle eastern feel to a lot of the vocal melodies, which for the most part are acceptable, but have a tendency to get a little grating. Their wanky guitar shredding parts are about as meandering and senseless as a Kerry King solo - not in a good way, either. It reminds me of a lot of guitar enthusiasts I've known who are quite gifted at their instrument, however, have no musical ear or ability to determine what goes where and when. They hit their pinnacle of inept songwriting during "Communion", which begins with a great riff but falls apart at the very end with a mess of echoing vocals and manic guitar playing. I actually like "Majestic 12" for some reason, although I can't really determine why. It's ridiculous in a...malformed Megadeth style. It's not that good, but wildly entertaining for some reason.
Embryonic is a very sophomoric album, bearing a striking resemblance to any supposed heavy metal act taken from a random high school. It doesn't really help that they cite their influences as The Beatles, Pink Floyd, Metallica, Tool, and System of a Down, or that on their website, in the biography of one of their members, it says one of his hobbies is "frequent personal tests of psychotropic compounds (particularly cannabinoids)". I think we've all known that guy at some point in our lives - someone who described smoking pot as "testing psychotropic compounds". I could go on, but it's probably a little tasteless of me to further criticize the band based upon their awkward webpage biographies. And maybe that's the note I should end on. Area 51 aren't that good, but are still entertaining, even if for the wrong reasons.

Medtner: Music for two pianos
Helios (Hyperion's budget label)
Movement 1: Moderato Cadenza Vivace Meno mosso
Movement 2: Andante Con moto Tempo I: Meno mosso
he wrote a composition in E minor (in the form of variations). It was quite good music. I remember that at some benefit [Moscow Conservatoire student] concert for ourselveswe often arranged such eventsRachmaninov and [Joseph] Lhevinne performed this piece on two pianos; it concluded with a variation in octaves, alternating from one pianist to the other on that occasion each increased the tempo, and everyone watched to see who would outplay whom. Each had a phenomenal wrist, but it was Rachmaninov who won.
How reliable was Goldenweisers memory? Or was the original form of the music different? As eventually written/printed, the final (G major) variation provides for no accelerando. And, with the exception of three bars on the last page, all the octave work is confined to the first piano part.

Whyteleafe's FA Cup journey continues at the expense of rivals Croydon
11:25am Monday 2nd September 2013 in Football
By Brian Davis
Whyteleafe progressed comfortably through to the first round qualifying of the FA Cup, and picked up a cheque for £1,925, thanks to a 2-0 win at rivals Croydon.
The host's main threat was from the long throws of Jamie Atkins, one of which found Claudio De Almeida in space in the box, but his 19th minute header went wide.
Bentley Graham had a shot saved from a Taylor Smith cross, then Roscoe D'sane found the back of the net in the 26th minute but was ruled out for offside.
The second half began with Leafe on top and the lead eventually came their way in the 55th minute.
Graham found Ryan Fowler wide on the left and his cross found D'sane in the box and he made no mistake from close range.
Ameyaw kept the hosts in with a chance with a string of good saves - tipping over a dipping Jensen Grant shot from 25 yards in the 63rd minute, and then doing the same from Gareth Williams moments later.
Leafe made certain of their place in the next round 10 minutes from time when Taylor Smith chased down a long ball down the right, and his cross picked out Williams in the box who found the back of the net from close range.
Further chances fell Leafe's way, but the 2-0 scoreline always looked comfortable enough and saw them safely through to a home tie against Horley Town on September 14.

The Arabian Nights, also known as The Thousand and One Nights and known in Arabic as Alf Layla wa Layla, is a collection of fables, fairy tales, romances, and historical anecdotes of varying ethnic sources, including Indian, Persian, and Arabic oral traditions. While their specific origins are unknown, it is certain that the stories were circulating orally for centuries before they were written down in the fourteenth century in a Syrian manuscript, housed at the Bibliotèque Nationale in Paris as of 2004.
The first printed edition of the tales, which was based on the Syrian version, was published by Fort Williams College in Calcutta and edited by Shaikh Ahmad ibn-Mahmud Shirawani, an instructor of Arabic at the college. The first European translation was by the French statesman Antoine Galland, whose editions appeared in twelve small volumes between 1703 and 1713.
The public response to Galland's work was positive and immediate: translations and versions of the tales spread throughout Europe. The first English translation was made by Edward Lane in 1841, followed by John Payne in 1881 and, most famously, by Sir Richard Burton in 1885. Burton, who relied heavily on Payne's earlier work (and is even said to have plagiarized much of it), published his version in ten volumes as a private edition of one thousand under his imprint of Kama Shastra Society. He later added an additional six volumes of supplemental material, which he called Supplemental Nights. Burton's edition quickly sold out, providing him with his first profit ever as a writer, and he was in the early 2000s credited as the popularizer of the tales among English-language readers.
Historically considered by Arabic scholars as a form of ''low brow'' literature and rarely regarded for its literary merits, The Arabian Nights, in its many incarnations, was in the twenty-first century considered nonetheless a classic of Western literature and continued to be one of its most influential works.
The Plot Summary, Characters, Themes, and Style sections below discuss the stories from Book 1 of the The Arabian Nights.

The Central Intelligence Agency has used coercive interrogation methods against a select group of high-level leaders and operatives of Al Qaeda that have produced growing concerns inside the agency about abuses, according to current and former counterterrorism officials.
At least one agency employee has been disciplined for threatening a detainee with a gun during questioning, they said.
In the case of Khalid Shaikh Mohammed, a high-level detainee who is believed to have helped plan the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, C.I.A. interrogators used graduated levels of force, including a technique known as ''water boarding,'' in which a prisoner is strapped down, forcibly pushed under water and made to believe he might drown.
These techniques were authorized by a set of secret rules for the interrogation of high-level Qaeda prisoners, none known to be housed in Iraq, that were endorsed by the Justice Department and the C.I.A. The rules were among the first adopted by the Bush administration after the Sept. 11 attacks for handling detainees and may have helped establish a new understanding throughout the government that officials would have greater freedom to deal harshly with detainees.
