Very poor quality. Very flimsy. Poorly constructed. Cheaply made. One of the two items arrived broken. When batteries were put into the second item it ran slowly and poorly. When the batteries were removed almost immediately, they were red hot. This item is unacceptable on every level. It will be returned promptly. This is the first time, however, I have ever been disappointed in an item from Overstock.com.
Needed a salt and pepper grinder for outside grilling. Ordered this one and a Kalorik to compare. This one is easy to work, the plastic bottoms fit secure and the grinding mechanism is reasonably quiet. Easy to control the grind size from the bottom nut adjustment. Great product and best price!
These are a stylish and pretty addition to your table. They are great quality and easy to use. would fit with any decor . The added bonus they are easy to use by persons with handicaps, sometimes turning your wrist can be painful.
These are great for everyday, or special occasion. They are sturdy, and look great on the table. They work very well. We use rock sea salt, and it works great. Pepper works well too, but obviously they are a harder substance, so takes longer to get the amount you want.
These salt and pepper shakers were just what I was looking for. They work perfectly and look great sitting out. Plus they have a cap that fits on the bottem of each to prevent salt and pepper from getting on the surface where you store them. The lights work great and you can adjust the size of the pepper and salt you grind.
Looks great and works also great!! Made a hit with the entire meal.
As a matter of fact, I bought this set for a friend after getting mine. Can easily grind kosher or sea salt into finer particles; of course the pepper grinder is perfect. Only drawback is the light has gone out on the pepper grinder, even though the batteries are fresh. But that's not a problem since I'm not cooking in the dark!!
wonderful modern look very different from the old shakers love the style
For the price, these are excellent pepper mills. The light is a nice touch.
won't even grind pepper , barely grinds salt junk junk junk

Posted by One Gay at a Time in Gay Dating on March 28, 2012
After realizing PR wasn't the one for me, I was ready to move on. I liked him a lot, but I felt we'd be sacrificing ourselves to stay together, and that's not fair to either of us.
I had been talking to a cutie with glasses on OKCupid for a little while before finally asking him for his number and ultimately to go out for a drink.
Wednesday night after work, we made plans to meet down near his neighborhood for some cocktails. I let him pick the place, and he told me where to meet him. When I arrived to the corner where he was, he immediately came off as shy. We shook hands and introduced ourselves, which always feels forced and awkward for me. I sometimes wonder if a hug may be more appropriate considering we're about to embark on a date, but I never have the guts to go in for it from the start.
We walked towards the bar he had in mind while we struggled to make small talk. I asked him about his day and how work was. In turn he asked the same questions, and I detailed my boring day at the office.
Finally, we arrived at the establishment, The Dove Parlour and took our seats on two bar stools on the corner of the bar. We ordered our drinks and returned to our awkwardly forced conversation. Again, we returned to the topic of work. Every question I asked him was returned with a quick short response. It was like pulling teeth to keep the conversation going. There were long periods of silence I wasn't sure how to deal with.
When we finished our second drink, the bartender approached and asked if we'd like another. This is where I failed miserably. This is why I'm too nice. I defaulted to him, expecting him to have felt as awkward as I did, but instead, he asked for another round. I was shocked. Did he think this date was going well? How could he?
I sat there and struggled to find a subject to continue to talk about over the next round of drinks. I was ready to leave, but I felt I'd be rude. I was in for another night of wasting my own time due to my lack of confidence to say, "I'm sorry, but I think I'm going to go."
I ended up staying for two more rounds — Four in total. Things were slowly improving. As the drinks passed his lips more words finally came out the opposite direction. He was finally starting to hold a real conversation. The topics were nothing exciting, but at least it was bearable.
By the end of our fourth round, he wanted a kiss. He moved in to make a move, and I allowed it. It'd been a while since a man kissed me, but I wasn't entirely weak in the knees from it. He really did have soft lips and was a good kisser, but that didn't negate the fact that our date was not going well.
He beckoned me to change stools so we weren't straddling the corner. He wanted me to be closer. At this point, he wanted a makeout session. I wasn't having any of that. I don't make out in bars (not unless I'm hammered and don't know any better, and the last time I did that was with a woman).
I told him I thought it was bad manners to make out at the bar. I pointed out how it always turns into a spectacle, especially when it's two men kissing each other. He pointed out the lack of people in the bar and asked if I wasn't comfortable with my sexuality in public. I pointed out if he was a woman, I'd feel the same way. There's never a need to make out at the bar. Take it outside. This was going to be a point we differed on, because he did not stop attempting to convince me to lock lips. This is when I basically told him to back off. It wasn't going to happen.
When we were ready to leave, he decided to walk me to the PATH — The complete opposite direction of his apartment. He was going to take a cab home and mentioned something about his supervisor paying for it.
When we got to the PATH station, he took the opportunity to pin me against the fence so he could have his makeout session. Again, I'm too nice and too accommodating, but at least he was a good kisser. It was an amazing change of pace from the night before, in which my "date" tried to eat my face.
Finally, I pulled back and said goodbye. He mentioned his desire to meet again in the near future, and I left that door open for possibility (seeing the too nice trend beginning here). When I got to the other side of the Hudson, I had a text waiting for me: "In spite of being terrified, I had a really good time! Hope to see you soon!" I simply responded, "Terrified?" "Oh, I have panic attacks before dates," he added.
I didn't respond, but in the morning, I had another text waiting for me: "Those French Lavenders (the drinks he was having) pack a punch. Sorry :/" I simply put his mind at ease and said, "No worries." That would be the last I would hear from him. I was happy to skip all the awkward texts and requests. He simply took the hint I wasn't interested and moved on…

Athlete body-match app locates your Olympic doppelganger
As I watch the Olympics, I imagine myself in the competition. I'm swimming for a medal, rocketing through the 100-meter dash, and rowing my heart out.
There are some problems with my flights of fancy. I don't have a swimmer's build, a runner's height, or a rower's stamina. To find my best Olympic sport match, I have to turn to the BBC's Olympic athlete body matcher.
Enter your height and weight and it will show you where you are on a plot of Olympic athletes and which Olympian you are closest to in size. The athletes range from a tiny gymnast to a hulking shot putter.… Read more

"We have to push, there is no doubt. It's not perfect. I'd be lying if I said it was. They are kids. Our job as coaches is to make sure we do push them, they are pushing through it. Do we have problems with it? Yes. And we have to overcome some of that, but I think that is part of what hurts us in the dead period in the state of Tennessee, taking two weeks off," Floyd said of the battle with heat, humidity and fatigue. "But, we understand as coaches that is part of our job, to push them. We give them plenty of water. And going at 6 p.m., our practice field will be completely shaded by 6:45. We're pretty fortunate there. But yes, the heat does bother us."
To combat the mental and physical fatigue Floyd and his assistant coaches are busy installing some of the early versions of the offensive and defensive schemes the team will print in the final playbook. After finishing 7-on-7 scrimmages, the Bears are mainly focused on running and special teams.
"Right now, of course, still no pads so defensively it's hard to do a whole lot. Offensively we are at least able to put in some schemes in our run game. We got all our passing stuff done in our passing league. We are really focused on the run game right now and that's probably what we will do next week when we throw on pads. Defensively we will be working on stopping the run," said Floyd.
"We are just trying to keep cool right now and get everybody ready for next week."
The Bears are taking what they learned in the passing league scrimmages and zeroing in on what worked and what needs work. The Bears coach said of the league there is a lot to be learned and only so much that can be accomplished in the practice sessions. It will take getting into full uniforms and playing real football to find out who is going to step up to make the starting roster.
"Seven-on-7s are really good. You get a lot of reps and get to look at a lot of kids. The bad thing is, it's not really football. We understand that. We try to take as many positives out of them as we can and learn from them and our negatives and the mistakes we are making coverage-wise. You are obviously putting in your passing game. But, really at this point you get kind of sick of them and you are ready for real football," said Floyd. "We've got to find out what kind of team we are going to be physically and mentally. Obviously, when you put the pads on, now the heat is going to be different. Can we overcome some of that stuff? We need to find out how tough of a team we are going to be and that's what we are going to find out next week."
The Bears will jump into two-a-days Monday, the same day they put on pads for the first time. The team will push through the grueling double practice sessions only twice before going back to single practices. The first scrimmage comes on Aug. 4 against Chattanooga Central. Floyd said the coaches will seriously begin to see who will wear the Black and Gold on Friday nights. The live scrimmages, Floyd said, will allow coaches to see who is rising to the top, but he fully expects to see teams take advantage of situations that have not been game planned.
"The scrimmage will tell us a lot, but we don't game plan for them. There are certain things you are not prepared for in a certain offense. We will be involved in a six-way scrimmage and we will be involved in a wide variety of offenses. There will be some things that I'm sure teams will advantage of. It's not a true indication all the time. We just want to see who can tackle, who can get off blocks, who is going to play through adversity and that kind of thing," he said.
"In those regards, yes it helps. Could you be in better situations against some offenses you are facing? Yes, but you won't do that until you game plan."
When the pads go on Monday, it will be time to see who really is ready to go and who is taking up sideline space. Time for talk will be over and the real heat and sweat will begin to be realized. The first two days of next week will begin to tell who will be making the Bill "Chief" Robertson Bear Walk Aug. 17.
"They say they are (ready to put in the pads). Every year you have kids that say they are fired up and can't wait to put the pads on. Then, they come back for that second practice on Monday or the third practice on Tuesday morning and they are not as excited. I guess that is part of it. Yes, they say they are fired up, so we'll see," said Floyd.

Im running version 6.0 build 1028, and I notice that when I search for a word in my synonym list search always replies that the word is in the skip word list (even though it is not).
For example, I have a synonym of Michael equates to Mike. When I search for Michael I see:
The following word(s) are in the skip word list and have been omitted from your search: "michael"
Is this a setting I'm missing?
It wouldn't be that the word in question is also in the skip list?
Maybe you can E-mail us your configuration file.
No - I confirmed the skip word list is still the default words only.
I still have this issue - and it's been a few weeks. Any update?
I sent you my config file - did you find anything there?
Sorry we missed this thread. I presume you didn't email us your configuration file as suggested above?
I would guess that the "Word" you made the Synonym to did not actually appear in the content indexed. Note that the distinction between the fields are important in the window you entered the synonym, as described in the Users Guide:
A synonym definition has two fields:
1.Word: This is the word that the synonyms will be mapped to. It must be a word that actually appears in the content of your website.
2.Synonyms: This is a list of words separated by commas that will be considered equivalent to the indexed word. When a user searches for any of these words, they will get the same search results as if they searched for the indexed word. All occurrences of the words in this synonym list will also appear as a search result when you search for the indexed word.
I am using it correctly - this worked in earlier version of Zoom search. Also, I emailed my config to you almost a month ago! Still waiting....
As far as I can see we didn't get any E-mail from the E-mail address you are using in the forums here.
So can you send the file again. Also can you post the URL of your search function where we can see the problem.

I am old enough to remember a time when if you said you were going to an arcade you were going to be playing pinball. I played occasionally. I wasn't very good, but I loved the watching the balls fly and the sound of a pinball machine. If you are a fan like me you now can have a professional made pinball machine at home.
Stern Pinball the worlds only current maker of traditional pinball machines is now making pinball machines for the consumer market. They have two models the Transformers and the Avengers. They are made of quality Stern parts including flippers, tilts and multi ball capability. The top can be lifted up to get to a stuck ball or do some cleaning. It has LED lighting for the scoreboard with Hi Def cabinet artwork and decals. Both weight 125 lb. and use home current. There is technical service from Stern Pinball and a network of repair shops.
Both models were released at Christmas time and run $2500. They are available through the Stern Pinball website and selected merchants.

Should H-1B Visas Be Easier to Get? >
More Green Cards, Not H-1B Visas, Is the Real Fix
America is unique because it turns newcomers into Americans
December 28, 2011
U.S. News & World Report asks: "Should H-1B visas be easier to get?" It's the wrong question.
A bit of historical perspective may help. I was the chairman of the immigration subcommittee in 1990 when we defined the basic structure of the H-1B category in the Immigration Act of 1990, including the original 65,000 annual cap. I'm proud that I was the author and floor manager of that legislation, particularly because it also increased the number of green cards available for employment-based immigrants from 57,000 to the current 140,000, while shifting the focus toward higher-skilled immigrants. That was the last time Congress approved an actual increase in legal immigration.
[U.S. News Debate Club: Is Newt Gingrich Right About Immigration?]
Our goal in creating the H-1B cap was to limit temporary visas for filling permanent jobs in favor of the use of permanent immigrant visas—"green cards."
Much of today's debate over H-1B echoes what was said in the '80s. But it's even more important that, like the 1980s, the visa categories for skilled employment-based immigrants are again backlogged.
It is clear from the debates over H-1B during the past 15 years that there will be continuing controversy over the "right" contours for that category. But while the H-1B controversy drags on, there is a more pressing problem: facilitating green cards for the many advanced-degree graduates of STEM programs in America's top universities.
We need these highly skilled graduates because they create jobs in America for Americans—and they help keep them here.
Whose welcome mat will be most attractive? Globalization has made it easier for multinational companies to go where the talent goes, rather than insist that the talent stay in America. With our unemployment rate so high, we desperately need to hold on to these jobs—those filled by Americans and those that can be filled by foreign-born graduates on their way to becoming Americans—as well as the jobs that their work will create.
[How the Economy Would Change Under Newt Gingrich.]
That is what the H-1B is designed to do, some might say. No, not really. As a temporary, nonimmigrant category that ties employees to particular employers, it is not America's most effective welcome mat. In fact, it is increasingly clear that relying on the H-1B instead of welcoming with green cards drives away exactly the job creators we want to keep.
What has made America unique in the world over the centuries has been turning newcomers into Americans. These STEM graduates, like generations before them, do not want to be "temporary workers" valued only as economic factors. Rather they are skilled individuals, often with families, who seek a secure place in a competitive workplace and a welcoming community. They're not just workers. They're people.
They want to stay permanently in America and become Americans. This "Ellis Island" model of immigration is what sets us apart in the global competition for talent.
I represent the IEEE-USA, which is a wide range of electrical and electronics engineers. Many are native born, others are immigrants. Student chapters abound, with their mixture of "grown-up here" and "came from abroad" students. We represent the Americans who compete most directly with skilled immigrants. So it is significant that there is a consensus among our membership.
Our members do not want to be part of a system that uses "temporary visas" to advantage or disadvantage some employees over others. We want a workplace where the competition is fair because the playing field is level. With "green cards," you don't need endless rules of regarding portability and prevailing wage. The job market sorts all this out. Employers keep their workers by providing an attractive employment opportunity. Employees keep their working conditions up by having options. That is the better way to attract and keep foreign-born talent without unfairly competing with American workers or exploiting the foreign born.
[Rep. Tim Griffin to Introduce High-Skilled Immigrant Bill.]
In short, there are no problems that advocates for the H-1B imagine it can solve for which green cards are not a better solution. And there are no problems with the H-1B program itself that a system built on green cards will not help to fix. So we suggest the participants in this online debate help us change the subject—from the H-1B to green cards.

A Battle Plan for Kids' Consignment Shopping
Even if it's your first sale, you'll feel like a pro with these tips!
By: Jessica Harbour
Sometimes the most intimidating part of consignment sales can be the actual time you spend shopping. Unless you're like me, and are what my husband has termed a 'guerrilla shopper'. This method of shopping uses techniques passed down from the bargain-frenzied females on both sides of my family, as well as some tips I have gathered myself through my years of consignment shopping. If you don't have the guerrilla shopping gene, don't worry! The following list of ideas and guidelines will have you shopping with the best of them, and no one will know it's your first time!
Pre-sale Prep - Consignment sale shopping always goes smoothest if you prepare yourself ahead of time. Here's what works for me:
- Get the largest and sturdiest clothes basket in your house. Tie a string to the handle on one end of the clothes basket, then make a loop on the other end of the string that you can put around your wrist. (If you have a dog, leashes also work well for this.) Now when you're shopping, you can put your clothes basket down at a rack and pull it around w/o having to carry it on your hip.
- Trace your kids' feet onto a piece of cardstock or construction paper. Then, write on each foot what specific items you are looking for, and in what size, for each child. This is info that is easy to forget when you're looking through racks and racks of clothes, and then you'll get home and realize you forgot to get your son any winter hats, etc.
- Bring a large sturdy tote bag to throw items like shoes, socks, and accessories in if you think your basket will be full of clothes.
- Fill a large water bottle to bring with you. When the sale is busy, the room can get hot, and you'll get thirsty fast.
- Find a sitter! Even if you have an older child, it is near to impossible to successfully consignment shop if you have kids with you. And, it can get really crowded in a consignment sale, making it hard to keep up with kids who are walking.
Shopping the Sale! Approach a consignment sale strategically, and you'll find what you need w/o getting overwhelmed.
- Strollers/Baby Equipment/Furniture is your first stop if you are in need of a new car seat or other piece of equipment. At most sales, you can pay for large equipment separate, and they will put a sold tag on it for you while you shop the rest of the sale.
- After equipment, shop the shoes first. If you're looking for shoes, especially in the larger sizes, hit those bins when you come in the door. Kids can wear shoes out fast, and there is usually a smaller selection of shoes than clothing. Don't forget to use your footprint cut-outs to make sure shoes will fit!
- Boys' clothes after shoes. I'm not sure if it's because boys are harder on their clothes, or because there is just less variety in boys' clothes, but there are always fewer boy racks, and the boy clothes are often priced higher. Hit those before the girls' so you can find the better clothes and better bargains.
- Re-evaluate your picks before heading to the next section. Sometimes, when I'm in a shopping frenzy, I will pull way too much stuff off the rack. By going through my choices before heading out of the boys' section, I can weed out some of the more questionable items.
- Be careful in the girls' section! The girls' section of consignment sales is some kind of shopping kryptonite. There are too many cute things on the rack, and I often find myself pulling things off the rack my daughter will never wear. One, maybe two, fancy dresses per season is all most little girls will need. If you have an older girl, remember their preferences too. Just because you think that ruffled peasant shirt is adorable doesn't mean that your daughter won't tell you it looks "dumb and poofy." (An actual comment from my four year old).
- Don't forget accessories like socks, hats, etc. They can be hard to find, but most sales will have a couple bins of socks and accessories. Last year I bought my daughter a gallon bag filled w/Gymboree and Gap socks for $2. Awesomeness.
- Save toys for last, and be discriminating. The toy section can be overwhelming, to say the least. Head into it with specific ideas for your kids, and don't get sucked in playing with baby toys if your kids are too old for them!

If only consumers learned that when your computer becomes slow that they can in most cases just simply update the CPU and be done with it. Instead of thinking of buying a whole new system as most of the time its the Software or a lack of Memory that is slowing down a computer not the CPU its self, but if it was then a BIOS update, put in a new CPU and there good as gold, but most dont, sad realy.
Intel try to kill everybody, first motherboards section, than they cross on video cards segment with better graphics inside the CPU than on PSU because CPU will need 5W to work. And than we will pay 2000-2500$ for everything together but only to Intel. ...It's not possibile of course...
They already had this in the nettop/mobile market most low power chips from AMD and Intel are BGA. Atom chips as well as K8L have been soldered for a while. In those instances I have no issues with the move, but in a mainstream market it is kind of a bad deal. No more will people be binning chips for overclocking you are going to have stacks of motherboard/CPU combo's and that assumes Intel doesn't completely lock down these CPU's to prevent overclocking. It just seems odd considering Haswell brings back bus clocking in its revision, but the next batch of chips is attached to the board? WTF? If I had to guess I would say Intel is forcing the enthusiast market off of the mainstream boards. They have been trying for years with Z77 lacking PCI-e lanes, limiting the upgradability (1156/1155/1150 short lifespan) overclocking locked to "K" series CPU's just more and more attempts to force users to blow money into an entusiast platform. Now I do not think Intel is going to force people over to Xeon's, but they will have an i7 3820 and LGA 2011 equal that they expect you to buy if you want to overclock and run SLi/Crossfire.
The pc world is evolving..... budget and bang for buckers' worlds will end & implode into the soc enviroment. Enthusiasts will migrate to work stations .......YOU HEAR THAT..... ITS INEVITABLE........ MR ANDERSON.........
For a price i think intel will leave a window open....if not... were enthusiast.... well figure something out... alot of interesting tech coming down the pipe, I think overclocking will evolve along with it.
Thats exactly my point!! Then IF the software isn't the issue, upgrade the CPU, and for a 775 Socket you could go a 9550 or something like that? For a basic home user that's more then enough.
True enough. A gradual slow down and the gradual creep of momentary non-responsiveness in programs usually goes unnoticed by a lot a users...Clean install the OS and a good number of people would think that they were looking at a major hardware upgrade from the apparent speedup.
for the price of a 9550, you could get a mobo/cpu/ram combo on a more modern socket, with equal or greater performance. sell the old CPU + mobo + RAM combo, and its even cheaper.
Thats true, but it was just an eg. For me I have sold and built 99% AMD systems in the past 6yrs from 939 to AM3+ and only 1 ever agreed for a CPU upgrade, even though AMD CPU's are mega cheap, so
This is a horrible idea. It will remove customization out of the picture. Of course people will stop buying your processors, you keep changing the damn sockets every year, what the hell did you expect? Intel, if and when you do this, I will move over to AMD, sure I might not see the same performance as with your current chips, but oh boy I do not like people screwing around with customization a.k.a peoples decision / choice!
they'll probably lock them down, and require software to enable the extra cores/cache. we've all heard of them trialling that tech before.
If they do actually do this with broadwell, as nothing is set in stone, then this leaves a big door open for amd. Intel might do it for a few generations but maybe it might be a mistake for them in some way.
I normally get a decent CPU and a crap mother board OR a crap CPU and decent mother board. I have had 4 socket 775 cpu's and 7 motherboards... Nvidia chipsets and intel cpus not the best combination. Although if you wanted to cook toast or replace the crappy cooler that came with the motherboard this might help. If Intel solder everything in ill just go to amd. Or hopefully ARM.... I can't justify and upgrade there are any "fun" games that won't run on a Q6700 and a Geforce GTX 560 Ti. Most new games are steaming piles of crap anyway ... . Besides the fact your Epean is bigger is there much point of upgrading if your current system is running fine...
Yup, each board vendor could have its own cooling solution, much like graphics cards. Maybe like GPUs, there could be common mount-hole spacing.
So, from all this talk I guess Otellini should stick around longer, eh? 'ny ways. I find it hard to believe that Intel would ditch the mainstream market so easily. Not when ARM's making a move in, and not where AMD APUs shine. I see this move applied to Celerons and maybe some higher powered Atoms for ultra small form factors. And perhaps releasing special featured BGA CPUs for MicroATX systems (HTPCs and such). But I doubt they would do all of the mainstream segment.
You're Missing The Point Broadwell is NOT a Haswell replacement - it's not even a mainstream CPU. If anything, Broadwell is "Son of Haswell", but an Atom/Clover Trail replacement (SoC). Haswell will have three different sets of progeny - 1. Broadwell (the current subject of discussion) in the SoC space (this segment is now occupied by Atom, and eventually Clover Trail, which is now starting to arrive) - these CPUs *already* use BGA packing primarily - does Atom even SHIP in LGA packaging? 2. Haswell-MS/Lynx Point - this will succeed Ivy Bridge and be a *tock*; it also may or may not use a new socket. (I'm talking specifically about LGA1155 or direct successor socket.) 3. Haswell-EX - This will replace Sandy-E and/or LGA2011, a variant will be a XEON for the WS/server space. Mountain out of molehill.
Maybe the article is wrong.... I do know a few laptops have soldiered in CPU's mainly celerons. In over 15 years building computers I have only ever once upgraded a laptop CPU. So... maybe everyone is wound around the axles for no reason.
Re-read the Article! The article itself points to Broadwell being an SoC (Atom successor). The concern is more outbound; post-2015 and the successor to Lynx Point (which is the mainstream Haswell CPU) - Intel China/RoC is worried that devices will replace the mainstream as where the action is. (This is also the concern of investors - and why Intel/AMD/everyone else in the PC space took a shellacking last week in the financial markets; even Apple (OS X) and Google (advertising) didn't escape that.) Whether that actually happens depends on the economy - not anything necessarily that Intel does, or doesn't do.
So in other words a sort of planned obsolescence? No wonder the world is f&*ked all people are worried about is money. What is wrong with old tech if it still works. Wouldn't it be alot cooler for intel to say we have 30 year old machines still running? Maybe Intel should start some sort of recycling industry to combat intel processors boards etc. I despise the markets and all those sort of business people. That are only worried about the now and the future. In the real world post 2005 you don't need to upgrade your processor every 2 years. Back in the 1990's you could just run windows 95 on a 486 and maybe windows 98. There was a huge performance jump from a 486 to a Pentium then a big jump to a Pentium 2 and to Pentium 3 and 4 .... If you where a PC gamer you needed to upgrade every 2 or so years other wise you couldn't play the newest games. No one writes software to take full advantage of CPU's anymore. And more and more people don't us pc's or laptops anymore. Its not like you need 40GHZ to get on the internet. So either program something that is good that takes advantage of current tech or die. I jumped ship to Intel because socket 478 was used for ever. Then went to socket 775 because of the upgrade path from dual to quad core. Most people I know have 3+ year old desktops because they have no need to upgrade there CPU. Also if intel didn't make 20+ cores per a CPU they might not shot themselves in the foot. Most servers now days are run in an ESX or hypervisor box. With either 1 or more multicore CPU's running heaps of servers. I saw a whole server room condensed to 1 Xen box with 4 Xeon CPU's Which replaced 30+ xeon CPU's. If intel do this someone from the ARM camp just needs to make a decent board with 6+ sata ports....

FAQ for the Dining Services Request for Proposal (RFP) Committee (updated 9/10/2012)
Why do we have a food contract on campus?
Evergreen has a residential community of approximately 1000 students. There is also a large English First (EF) program on campus with up to 100 students eating on campus daily during the academic year, and higher numbers during the summer. In addition to the residential community, there are faculty, staff, and commuting students that eat on campus daily. With so many people eating on campus and at varied times, the college has chosen to have a food service company help manage this large operation to provide the needs of the campus. Having a food service contract assures that food is prepared for the times and quantities needed, and the economic responsibilities are shared with the vendor through a commission structure.
What is an RFP and how does it work?
An RFP is a "request for proposals". In addition to being mandated by state law to award contracts based on open competition, it is also a good business practice, resulting in more advantageous prices and services. The RFP process avoids possible legal conflicts with vendors that could prove costly or cause delays that would impact the Evergreen community.
Who are the members of this committee and how are they chosen?
The Director of Residential and Dining Services researched committee membership from past RFP committees, and best practices of committee memberships at other institutions. The list was then vetted with the Strategic Food Committee on campus and approved by the Vice President for Student Affairs. There are many people who are interested in the work of the committee, and a substantial part of the committee's work is gathering input from the Evergreen community in several ways (see below).
Committee membership includes:
- Director of Residential and Dining Services
- Student member, residential community leader
- Student member, representative from the Geoduck Student Union (GSU)
- Student member, representative from the Flaming Eggplant
- Student member, representative from the Campus Food Coalition
- Flaming Eggplant Advisor
- Director of Business Services
- Faculty member
- Conference Services Manager
- Representative from Purchasing & Contracts
- Representative from College Relations
- Vice President of Student Affairs (ex officio)
An RFP is a legal process and there are rules to follow. How can this process meet legal obligations, but be transparent?
In general, there are four major steps in an RFP process.
- Specifications and requirements development
- Seek bids by posting the RFP publically
- Analyze and score bid responses
- Award a contract to the successful company
After clear and concise specifications, requirements, and scoring criteria are developed (step 1), the Purchasing and Contract Office will convert those specs into a formal bid document, and "run" the competitive process (step 2). Bids responses are scored according to the scoring criteria detailed in the RFP document (step 3). A contract is developed and entered into with the vendor selected via the RFP process (step 4)
Currently, we are working on step 1.
What is the goal of this committee?
Evergreen's current dining services contract expires in August 2013. This committee is charged with engaging in the request for proposal (RFP) process to select the food service provider for the next period.
Some objectives of the committee are:: developing a thorough Request for Proposal that reflects Evergreen's values and provides realistic financial returns to the institution; reviews collected assessments of dining services users; invites the campus community to provide feedback and educate the campus about the RFP process; review submitted RFP responses; provide advice regarding the strengths and weaknesses of submitted proposals; and make recommendations to the Vice President for Student Affairs and the Vice President for Business and Finance.
What is the timeline for choosing the next food service provider?
The current dining contract expires in August 2013. The timeline for this process is below:
Spring 2012
- Gathering of community feedback
- Training of Dining Services RFP committee in the RFP process
- Committee reviews feedback and assessment data regarding dining services
- Initiation of RFP writing
Fall 2012
- RFP finalized
- RFP issued and early steps in RFP process initiated
Winter 2013
- Evaluation of received proposals by RFP committee
- On-campus presentations by potential vendors
Spring 2013
- Committee provides feedback and any recommendations
- Announcement of "Apparent Successful Vendor"
Summer 2013
- Contract preparation and signature
Estimated contract implementation date: September 1, 2013
Is this an opportunity for the college to go "self-op" (self-operated)?
The college has chosen to do an RFP in order to obtain a new dining contract. In the current economic climate, the campus is not prepared for the expense of making the food operation self operated.
What opportunities exist for the campus community to make their voice heard?
When it comes to food everyone has an opinion. Residential and Dining Services conducts surveys throughout the year asking the community about their opinions about food service and the committee has been provided with this information. During the process there will be opportunities for people to provide feedback about what they are hoping for in the new food service provider. There will also be opportunities for the community to learn about the different vendors that will be competing for the contract.
Will Sustainability and Social Justice issues be addressed in the RFP?
Yes! Specifications and requirements contained in the RFP can address the College's commitment and expectations relating to sustainability and social justice. This may include such issues as food sourcing, recycling, water/electrical usage, food donations, and workers rights.
What does a new contract mean for the Flaming Eggplant?
The Flaming Eggplant is a student-run alternative to the contracted food service. In its current scope, the cafe provides organic, local and seasonally based ala carte food options to the campus. In the current contract there are restrictions around its operation in terms of providing catering and meal plans. Specifications and requirements in the RFP may open opportunities for more flexibility of the cafe as it grows and develops.
What is the decision making process for choosing our next food service provider? What authority does the RFP committee have in this process?
The committee is charged with making recommendations to the Vice President for Student Affairs and the Vice President for Business and Finance; ultimately they make the final decision. Typically their decision reflects the committee's input, and if not, areas of discrepancy will be addressed.
How is the food contract managed on campus?
The food contract is managed by the contract administrator, the Director of Residential and Dining Services (RAD). There is oversight by the VP for Student Affairs and the VP for Business Services. In addition, there are several committees that the Director of RAD chairs, to assure that community input is gathered about the dining contract and the administration of the contract.
How long is the contract going to be and are there ways to terminate the contract?
In order to get competitive bids, the contract will mostly be a ten year contract. The contract terms are also reviewed annually and new contract language can be proposed.

CANTON - Jefferson County officials are demanding answers from the U.S. Coast Guard after a fuel tanker with steering problems was allowed to cross the St. Lawrence Seaway with a tug latched to its side.
Neither local emergency response agencies nor county officials were given any prior warning to prepare them for a potential disaster, said County Legislator Philip N. Reed, R-Fishers Landing.
Mr. Reed said he is now trying to figure out how the Sarah Desgagnes a 479-foot vessel carrying a full load of gasoline had been cleared to finish its trip to Sarnia, Ontario, and why no one here was notified.
According to MarineTraffic.com, the vessel, owned by Groupe Desgagnes, Qu�bec City, was last reported to be passing Detroit around 10 a.m. Thursday.
If it bears out to be true, it would be very disturbing, he said, especially because it implies the Coast Guard gave a malfunctioning ship the green light to pass the American narrows, the most difficult part of the Seaway to navigate.
Ronald G. Thomson, owner of Uncle Sam Boat Tours, said he saw the vessel passing Alexandria Bay on Tuesday night with a tug strapped to its port side, about two-thirds of the way up to the ships bow.
Groupe Desgagnes company officials, however, said the vessel had indeed experienced some issues related to wear and tear but that it was functional by the time it was allowed to continue on and that the tug was attached simply as a precautionary measure.
The company said that the Sarah Desgagnes which left New York City for Sarnia about two weeks ago did not do a 360-degree turn after losing control as some witnesses on the St. Lawrence River claimed.
Jennifer J. Caddick, outgoing executive director of Save the River, Clayton, said that any number of things could have gone wrong and that area officials should have been notified.
She said she confirmed with Seaway officials Thursday morning that the vessel had steering problems, but details were scarce as to what exactly what went wrong and why the ship had to be tied up to the Iroquois Locks in Massena for a few days. Seaway officials could not be reached.
