Sensible conclusion, but: A 15 amp circuit should deliver up to 15 amps RMS (otherwise, a 15A heater would immediately trip a 15A breaker). Peak currents during the cycle can be higher. This fine point is academic, though, since in this example the air conditioning capacity limits maximum power dissipation. BTW, when it comes to heat dissipation, humans count about as much as a bright light bulb (100W+ depending on activity level -- 100W corresponds to 2064 kcal/day). > I personally would reject #3 out of hand, unless you buy three year > onsite service contracts on the Dells (spending nodes as required). > Dell doesn't do Opterons, I don't think, as well. HPs ditto. Dell is Intel only, but HP sells AMD CPUs, including dual core Opterons (e.g. HP xw9300 workstation -- but compare costs carefully). Sincerely, Josip

Nebraska's congressional delegation wants to know why the Environmental Protection is flying over Nebraska livestock operations.
Reps. Adrian Smith, Jeff Fortenberry, Lee Terry and Sens. Ben Nelson and Mike Johanns wrote to EPA Midwest Administrator Lisa Jackson Tuesday inquiring about the EPAs aerial surveillance in Nebraska.
Jackson is the chief of EPA's region 7 office that oversees Nebraska, Kansas, Iowa and Missouri.
The flyovers have apparently been conducted for several months, the lawmakers said, and could date back to before 2010. They asked the EPA to tell them the precise number that have occurred.
And, they also asked EPA to cite the statutory authority for the flyovers.
"It is our understanding... that the aerial survellience is being conducted...under the Clean Water Act," the letter said. "If so... is (that) the exclusive purpose of the flights?"
"This practice has resulted in privacy concerns among our constituents and raises several questions, the Nebraska lawmakers wrote. Farmers and ranchers in Nebraska pride themselves in the stewardship of our states natural resources."
The letter asks 23 questions, including questions about flight elevation, livestock stress, collaboration with other state and federal agencies, including the Nebraska's environmental agency -- the Department of Environmental Quality.
These operations are in many cases near homes, and landowners deserve legitimate justification given the sensitivity of the information gathered by the flyovers," Smith said. "Nebraskans are rightfully skeptical of an agency which continues to unilaterally insert itself into the affairs of rural America.
Smith is the co-chairman of both the Modern Agriculture Caucus and the Congressional Rural Caucus.
The letter gives the EPA until June 10 to respond.

Historic Charm on the Banks of the May River
The Town of Bluffton prides itself as one of the oldest towns in South Carolina with a rich and eventful history. Situated on the Mainland that is just a bridge away from Hilton Head Island, Bluffton offers a unique blend of nature's splendor, Lowcountry history and modern amenities. One of the most distinguishing features of the town is the May River, which leads conveniently out to the Intracoastal Waterway. This unspoiled waterway has had a key role to play in the town's continued success and history.
In addition to the homes listed for sale on this page, there are gated communities in the Bluffton area that have their own separate pages on this website: Belfair, Berkeley Hall, Colleton River, Hampton Hall, Hampton Lake, Palmetto Bluff and Rose Hill.
Register for your free account. By doing this, your search criteria will be saved and you can view details of various Hilton Head Island listings quickly and easily. In addition, you can choose to receive an email whenever a new property (matching your needs) comes on the market. This service is entirely free, and none of your personal information will ever be shared with a third party.
150+ Historic Years of Bluffton, S.C.
The historic Town of Bluffton, known today as "Old Town", was incorporated in 1852 and covered an area of one square mile, situated on a high bluff overlooking the pristine waters of the May River. The Town was designed to serve as a stopover for travelers visiting Savannah, Charleston, or Beaufort. Its prime feature was a steamboat landing that was built at the end of Calhoun Street to facilitate traveling.
When the War Between the States commenced, Bluffton became a safe haven for people who were fleeing the South Carolina sea islands. The Confederate forces used Bluffton as their headquarters until the General Sherman occupied the town after the capture of Savannah several days before Christmas of 1864. Today fifteen pre-Civil-war homes and two churches and many centuries-old oaks form the heart of the historic charm that is Old Town Bluffton.
Bluffton Enters the 21st Century
Bluffton remained a small town at one square mile (640 acres) from its inception in 1852 to 2000. However, in 2000, Bluffton annexed an area of 32,000 acres to expand its territory, which made it the fifth biggest town in South Carolina in terms of area.
The result of this annexation has been that today Bluffton is a transformed modern town, but with a pristine, wise heart. Living in Bluffton combines the exotic Old Town charm with dazzling new neighborhoods and plenty of entertainment, food, and shopping options. It is also privileged to have one of the most vivacious oceanfront resorts on the East Coast, Hilton Head Island, just a bridge away. Residents of Bluffton, thus, are blessed with the finest of four worlds: historic charm, modern neighborhoods, contemporary conveniences, and oceanfront resort fun.
The peaceful streets of Bluffton are lined with giant oaks covered with Spanish moss. The town is marked by a number of galleries, cafes and antique stores, many of which were originally ancient 19th century homes. These places also serve as meeting points for the town's regulars who love to greet old pals and extend a warm welcome to new ones with their legendary Southern hospitality. Nature has gifted its bounties generously to Bluffton. As you explore the town while walking down the sidewalks, you can treat your senses to hints of a refreshing breeze and sights of the fabulous May River.
Real Estate in Bluffton, South Carolina
Bluffton boasts some magnificent, even historic, waterfront homes on the May and Colleton Rivers as well as many recently built neighborhoods of new and newer homes for sale.

PACE to help aging Miami vets stay at home
Organization to help care for elderly Miami veterans at home instead of nursing homes
Miami Jewish Health is partnering with the Miami Veterans Healthcare System to help elderly veterans continue living at home instead of entering into costly nursing homes.
The group is targeting veterans who are Medicare eligible, but have incomes that are too high to qualify for Medicaid and do not have sufficient income to pay for the Florida PACE program. Veterans will receive comprehensive acute, home care, skilled care and other social services that will allow them to live in their home environment.
Last year, the average cost for a nursing home resident in the Miami VA System was $100,000 a year. The PACE program costs about $30,000 a year.
The partnership was announced Friday.

In Brief
Dissecting Dullness
- Most people blame boredom on the circumstances, but psychologists say this emotion is highly subjective and rooted in aspects of consciousness—and that levels of boredom vary among people. Some individuals are less—and others considerably more—likely to be bored than others.
- Boredom is not a unified concept but may comprise several varieties, including the transient type that occurs while waiting in line and so-called existential boredom that accompanies a profound dissatisfaction with life.
- Boredom is linked to both emotional factors and personality traits. Problems with attention also play a role, and thus techniques that improve a person's ability to focus may diminish boredom.
In a quiet, darkened lecture room, you begin a frustrating fight against fatigue. The overhead projector hums, and you cannot concentrate on the slides. You stop absorbing information and doodle mindlessly. The professor lost you eons ago. You are bored.
Virtually everyone gets bored once in a while. Most of us chalk it up to a dull environment. "The most common way to define boredom in Western culture is 'having nothing to do,' " says psychologist Stephen Vodanovich of the University of West Florida. And indeed, early research into the effects of boredom focused on people forced to perform monotonous tasks, such as working a factory assembly line.
This article was originally published with the title Bored?.

and while we are at it, where is my rbn for ps2! oh yeah, you probly think they dont deserve mention
2) they said songs will be ported over, what you should be doing instead of making a stink about rbn as a whole being ported over to a system when it just isnt gonna happen due to SONY, is make a stink to make sure the songs you want get put over. let hmx know you want song X Y and Z so that you can get them hopefuly.

Greg Jennings And His Contract: The Sky is Not Falling
The 2012 NFL season literally just got underway and already some Green Bay Packer fans are thinking about the 2013 offseason.
Thanks to some recent comments by free agent-to-be Greg Jennings and his MVP quarterback Aaron Rodgers, it's becoming clear that Jennings could be playing the 2013 season in a uniform other than the Green and Gold.
First, here is what Jennings had to say on the matter on ESPN's Mike and Mike in the morning:
"I definitely want to be here, but understanding the nature of the business, you never know. There is really nothing else I can really say or do. The ball is not in my court at all. I have to play the cards that I'm dealt. Right now it's football. That's my focus."
This really isn't a cause for panic nor is it really any different than what he has said in the past. Jennings has maintained all along he wants to remain a Green Bay Packer. This mindset is the best for the Packers if this indeed truly Jennings' mindset right now.
What Rodgers had to say, however, probably raised more than a few eyebrows. Here's what he told ESPN Milwaukee's Jason Wilde on his weekly radio show on ESPN 540:
"I think you have to be realistic about it and think that it might be. I have loved my time with Greg. Greg and I are going to be buddies whether he's here or not."

Well, how do you fare compared to the Zeitgeist? Chat up your fellow wooters and let us know how lame this poll was or what obvious choices we missed. For example: Was this poll a) STUPID, b) DUMB, c) POINTLESS or d) ALL OF THE ABOVE?
You forgot bikes!
This really should have been a poll of disappointment.
My 4Runner is neither a car nor truck, so I can't answer the question. Woot fail, again.
I normally fly a Nimbus 2000 but if I'm in a real hurry I fly my Firebolt.
I drive a car. Woot drives me crazy!
My Honda Element is classed as a "Sport Wagon" - I calls it a motorized refridgerator box. My new car is a Scion iq.... lawn mower x roller skate?
When the weather is nice... this... All other days... this...
Jeep; pseudo truck car thing.
Come on woot! where is the 'SUV' choice. Honda Pilot all the way!!
Buick LeSabre, but I am considering getting a motorcycle to save on gas, even though it would be a step down on the cool meter. Also, SUVs are usually considered trucks. However it depends on the basic frame they are built from. Some light duty ones are built on car frames. So really the classification is based on the frame.
A, B and D. Mustang, F350 diesel and FXDWG
As has been said you left out some options, ie all of the above. Depends on where I'm going, how many are going with me, and what I/we are doing. Don't understand myself how people get by with just one vehicle.
1982 Chevy C10, currently being upgraded from the stock 305 to a custom built 350. Ironically, I'll end up with slightly better gas mileage as the 305 was woefully underpowered for that beast of a truck. I also have a Honda Passport (aka Isuzu Rodeo) with the all-too-common bottom end knock, it will also be receiving a heart transplant as soon as I'm done paying for the truck's new engine.
A bicycle?
Where is the sports car option? for my 350Z? VQ35HR FTMFW!!!!
I drive a car and a motorcycle..I think this should have been a multiple answer poll lol
2011 Lincoln MKZ Hybrid & 1985 Chevy Silverado P-up with a 350/350hp engine.
I used to drive a Mustang GT, but got too many tickets in it. So, now it's a Ford F150 4x4. I always have a motorcycle or two in the garage. Sometimes I feel the need for speed.
epicsatyr wrote:Where is the sports car option? for my 350Z? VQ35HR FTMFW!!!!
It falls under the "car" option. I'm choosing "truck" for my Ford Escape Hybrid. Love the 40-44 average MPG I get driving my baby!
I drive a Titleist. But swing FireHawks irons. I really need a new set of irons.
I drive my husband crazy and insane. It isn't a long drive, as we have been married for 7 years. I haven't driven in about 1 1/2 years, and I don't miss it. But when I did drive, I had a Jeep. I made my husband buy a SUV with heated seats when I sold my Jeep. We also own a car (Hyundai Elantra), a truck (Toyota Tundra), a motorcycle (Yamaha Stratoliner), a Seadoo (we live on the river), and 2 Giant mountain bikes.
My CR-V does not fit in to any of those catagories. :-( This makes me slightly sad. And it also reminds me that I want a big truck...that also makes me sad. Good job, Woot!

98 Toyota Sienna. I still see other old Sienna's on the road every day. Around here, before the economy crashed, lots of leases, so an older car was not the norm. Great minivan. Seats are extremely comfortable. Only complaint when it was new was, the back windows didn't open. I can take all the seats out and make it a cargo van, which we did to get the kids to college. We still take them out a few times a year. Gas milage, not so great. 16mpg doesn't seem to matter, city or highway. This year we had to put a ton of money into it. We need to decide if we should keep it, or finally get rid of it. I guess we should have thought about that before putting all that money into repairs. Oh well. My problem is, I'm a little leery of the Toyota Japanese issue of "saving face". Corporate's tendency to keep problems a secret. The American division of the company should really have a talk with the Japanese parent division. If there is a recall, and it is fixed, americans forget all about it. If you lie, it makes us very uncomfortable. Here they have a customer who absolutely loves her car, yet I am leery about buying a new Toyota.
Put me down for "more than one". 3 Mercedes diesel sedans, 1 Dodge Ramcharger SUV/truck, currently fullsize truck-shopping.
A Jeep!!!!
I think a sports "car" would be considered a car. Just saying.

I drive the Shag Wagon. (2011 Forrester, Blue) Literally, we call it the Shag Wagon. My wife told me she wanted to adopt a dog, and we ended up adopting a retired Greyhound racer by the name of "Shall We Shag". The only objection I could think of as to why we wouldn't adopt an 80 lb dog is we didn't have a car that could haul an 80 lb dog AND still have room to carry people and/or camping gear. So, she told me to go buy a new car that would work for a greyhound. And thus the Shag Wagon came into existence.
And I drive either of 2 hybrids, Prius or Camry (Both average over 40MPG). Yes, they are cars, just like pick-ups, mini-vans and SUVs are trucks, despite the hype to the contrary. (Hell, the only thing "sport" about a huge SUV is the name)
Myself crazy! Actually a Toyota Venza.

If your SUV is built on a car platform frame, is it still a truck?

Special Report: State of the Industry
What lies ahead for printers in 2011? Bob Hall asked a panel of printing industry foot soldiers what is really going on in the field. Their optimism might surprise you. With emerging technology and new opportunities opening up for forward thinking...
In my predictions for the year 2009 I noted: "There seem to be two different opinions on the best way to weather the trying times ahead. One is to hunker down, save your cash, and pull in your horns. That might be a viable option if you actually have the cash to survive. Unfortunately, many do not because they have not been following the basics of business and balance sheets."The next year I opined: "In 2010 we will see sales rebound slightly for the industry and grow even more for those quick and small commercial printers who have recognized the systemic industry changes and planned for the economic recovery."
This year, I think I'll let the folks who are in the trenches share their take on what's in store for 2011.
Carl Gerhardt, president & CEO, Allegra Network: "NAPL is predicting 1-3% growth for 2011. Usually, Andy [Paparozzi, NAPL's chief economist] is pretty close. This is basically flat in real dollar terms. On average, this is about all the industry can expect. That said, we are seeing some excelling growth with those franchise members in Allegra Network who are embracing the new world of selling marketing solutions. It is not easy and requires the backup support from our Marketing Resource Center, but this gives a lot of optimism for those centers willing to change the focus of their business from chasing commodity print orders.
Still some others are getting a smaller piece of a smaller pie. As consolidation continues, there will be opportunities to acquire some business. We have done well over 250 acquisitions of independents for our existing centers…so there are some excellent opportunities to be optimistic. But there will not be a rising tide to lift all boats and you will need to adjust your sails if you want to get out of still H20."
Tommy Melendez, owner of Copy That, New York, NY: "There will be growth for many. The new economy has opened many eyes on how to grow in these hard times. Plenty of printers are upgrading and improving their workflow. These improvements will help to produce more work efficiently and increase sales.
I look forward to next year—2008 was good, 2009 was better, and 2010 has been our best. I truly believe a strong and aggressive marketing campaign, a great product, and first class service will provide any business with growth. If you fall into a price battle against your competitors or the Internet, you might as well close up shop now! Be wise and maintain a marketing campaign and raise your prices. As old friend John Stewart says, 'Work smarter, not harder.'"
John Giles, QP columnist and prepress technology consultant: "It isn't going to be pretty for a lot of print owners, especially if they haven't been managing their own businesses, keeping on top of the financials, or out in front of customers actively selling. Printers are going to have to become more Internet savvy and start treating the new communication tools as another way to reproduce and distribute documents.
2011 is going to be a really tough year for some printers and a great year for others. The long recession is putting pressure on the cash position of many small printing companies. Combine this with the fact that offset impressions are continuing to drop and you can expect a number of small printing companies to close their doors in the next 12 months. Prices will continue to be slashed for commodity types of printing as some printers attempt to keep their doors open. The traditional walk-in print shops will find it hard to compete since they don't have the money to automate their workflows or the time to get out and sell something.
But 2011 will bring opportunity to printers who have been taking action in their shops over the last 24 months. Printers will see success if they can sell services to help their customers manage their message, brand, and content. This managed marketing will go beyond printing and integrate the new communication tools offered by the Internet. I see successful printers not only printing on paper, but helping customers push their message using the Internet, Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, etc. Just adding "marketing" to your company's name won't insure success. Successful printing companies will have to demonstrate with their own company's marketing efforts that they understand the new marketing vehicles."

Even before Hurricane Sandy tore through Santiago de Cuba last week, a humble wood-frame church called San Pedrito was living on borrowed time with beams ravaged by termites and an ancient tin roof that let in the rain.
But San Pedrito crumbled Thursday as Sandy's 115 mph winds ripped Cuba's second largest city. "It is totally on the ground, but we were able to recover the statue of Our Lady, the crucifix and the bell,'' said the Rev. Luis del Castillo, a retired Uruguayan bishop who now works in Cuba.
There is scarcely any area of Santiago that was left unscathed. Photos show neighborhoods that look like trash piles of construction materials with wood beams tossed like toothpicks and tin roofs and tiles scattered on the ground. Walls of some homes lean at crazy angles or tilt toward streets still littered with huge trees.
As Sandy bore down on the U.S. East Coast on Sunday, the two hardest hit Caribbean nations — Cuba and Haiti — concentrated on trying to put together what Sandy tore apart.
In Cuba, where the death toll stood at 11, state-run media reported that 137,000 homes in Santiago were damaged, including 43,000 that lost their roofs and at least 15,000 that collapsed. Government estimates pegged losses at 2.1 billion pesos ($2.1 billion at the official rate Cuba uses for imports and $87.5 million using the exchange rate for everyday purchases in Cuba). But that figure is expected to rise when losses from tourism, the sugar industry and other sectors are added in.
In Holguín province where Sandy exited Cuba, the Cuban News Agency said that 17,000 homes suffered damage and there were significant losses to crops and livestock. The municipalities of Mayari, Banes, Antilla, Rafael Freyre, Baguano, Urbano Noris, Sagua de Tanamo and Cueto were among the hardest hit.
But Sandy also brought driving rain, which caused severe flooding in the central Cuba provinces of Villa Clara and Sancti Spíritus. Cuban leader Raúl Castro visited them Saturday and has said he intends to travel to eastern Cuba as well.
"We can say that we have had a great hurricane in the east and a small 'Flora' (a destructive 1964 hurricane) in the center of the country," said Castro, according to the state-run National Information Agency.
Haitian President Michel Martelly also was on the streets of his devastated country over the weekend, personally handing out aid kits.
Hundreds of residents from the Jalousie slum crowded a Petionville street mid-afternoon Sunday for the arrival of Martelly and a truck carrying the kits, which included candles, spaghetti and other foodstuffs.
In Haiti, 51 people were reported dead and 15 missing. More than 200,000 people were homeless and nearly 17,200 people had been placed in shelters. The government was serving hot meals and handing out $25 cash vouchers to shelter residents in the city of Les Cayes in southwest Haiti.
Damages were still being tallied Sunday and the death toll could rise.
Officials from Les Anglais, a small coastal village in southern Haiti, told a local radio station they feared homes may have washed out to sea. The road to the village remains impassable.
Another concern in Haiti is that cholera cases may increase. The International Organization for Migration reported that 16 new cases had already been recorded since Sandy's pass.
