How about a battery free RAMdrive? The Viking ArxCis-NV writes to flash if it loses power

Move over Fusion-io and RAMdisks with battery back up, Viking Technology has a surprise in store for you. Their DDR3 ArxCis-NV works as a standard DIMM in your machine, making installation and compatibility a snap. The difference is the super capacitor, available in a variety of sizes, which provides power long enough for the entire contents of the DIMM to be dumped to SLC flash for non-volatile storage in the case of a power outage or expected shut down. Once power is restored the contents of the SLC flash is dumped back to the DIMM and once again your storage media is back to running at DDR3 speeds. The slowest part of your storage will be the flash drive! If that sounds like something you'd like to know more about head to The Register.
"Viking Technology is a division of Sanmina-SCI, and its DDR3 ArxCis-NV is a DIMM that comes in 2, 4 and 8GB capacity points and operates at DRAM speed. It integrates into industry-standard x86 motherboards and functions in the host environment as a JEDEC standard DDR3 registered DIMM. If there is a power failure, or a host driven command, the ArxCis-NV will save all data in the DRAM to SLC (single-level cell) flash; upon power being restored, the data is written back to the DRAM ready for the system to access immediately following boot-up, provided there's sufficient operating system-level support for such a restore."

FeTRAM is higher and lower; gives the best of both worlds
Subject: General Tech | September 28, 2011 - 01:02 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: ram, FeTRAM, low power, flash
There's a new type of Flash RAM looking to make its name on the street called FeTRAM, which sounds as interesting as the phase change memory that we've been hearing about. It is an improved version of Ferrous RAM, which is very fast and uses very low power but uses a destructive reading technique. The T in the new RAM stands for transistor, so instead of the charge on the memory cell being negated by a read, the transistor will hold onto the charge so that the data can be held long term. That spells the difference between a memory module good only for RAM and a module that can be used in an SSD. The Register points to an article citing a 99% reduction in power usage when compared to current flash memory technology.
"Nanotechnology boffins are exploring a new type of nonvolatile memory that not only has the potential of being faster than today's flash RAM, but also requires 99 per cent less energy.
Called ferroelectric transistor random access memory – FeTRAM, for short – the scheme is based on a new type of transistor that combines silicon nanowires with an organic ferroelectric polymer – P(VDF-TrFE) – that switches polarity when an electric field is applied to it."

64 Bit Flash Support Returns To Linux With Flash Player 11
Subject: General Tech | July 15, 2011 - 02:50 AM | Tim Verry
Tagged: linux, flash, Adobe
Linux, once the beholder of 64 bit versions of the Adobe Flash plug-in, has been without any form of 64 bit support for the past few iterations (since version 10.1 to be more specific); however, Adobe has finally reinstated support for the 64 bit Linux version with the newly announced Adobe Flash Player 11 Beta. Currently only available on the desktop (Adobe claims the mobile version is coming soon), the new beta brings a new method of 2D and 3D rendering dubbed the Stage 3D API. This new API uses GPU-acceleration to speed up rendering across "multiple screens and devices." Support for H.264/AVC SW camera encoding and Native JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) are also features of the beta.
The announcement also briefly covers the improved security measures, specifically those that relate to GPU-acceleration. The new Stage 3D rendering API includes a new simple shader language dubbed AGAL (Adobe Graphics Assembly Language) that prohibits loops or functions inside shaders. Further, Adobe has added restrictions to the API to limit the number of calls per frame in an attempt to mitigate DDoS attacks.
The new desktop beta is available now for download. 64 bit Linux users rejoice, for the necessary evil that is Flash has returned to you.
Next gen SSD controllers pushing for TLC flash
Subject: Storage | April 27, 2011 - 10:06 PM | Allyn Malventano
Tagged: tlc, ssd, slc, ocz, mlc, flash
A while back, Intel and Micron jointly announced the beginnings of 20nm flash memory production, promising a 50% increase in die count per wafer (or a 50% reduction in per die production cost, depending on how you slice it). This shrink only did just that - shrink the die. Capacity remained at 64Gbit (8GB).
A few days ago IMFT also announced another way to shrink that die, but this time keeping with the now 'old' 25nm process. It turns out they have refined 25nm to the point where consumer-grade TLC flash can be produced. TLC is Triple-Level-Cell. While SLC (Single) holds 1 bit per cell, and MLC (Multi) holds two, TLC holds 3 bits per cell. Compared to the MLC 25nm dies, this gives a capacity increase without changing much else. IMFT, however, is happy with the 8GB 'sweet spot', so instead of jumping to a 12GB die of the same physical size, they are opting to instead shrink the current 25nm die to 131mm^2.
25nm TLC die, same 8GB capacity, but less area than the 25nm MLC die.
This gives Intel and Micron two options for ultimately reducing the price of flash - either by shrinking the process and getting more 8GB MLC dies out of a 20nm wafer, or by squeezing more bits into each cell of existing 25nm flash.
This is good stuff. Let's hope it gets even more SSD's into even more machines this holiday season.

Support Groups at Upper Valley Medical Center
When Chris Watercutter takes her seat at the monthly breast cancer support group meeting, she brings a perspective many group facilitators do not possess.
She is a five-year cancer survivor, and one of the founders four years ago in March of the support group sponsored through the UVMC Cancer Care Center.
The group was suggested to Watercutter, a Sidney resident and UVMC lab histology supervisor, by Dr. Carlos Machicao, shortly after she returned to work during her cancer treatment. The two continue to facilitate the group, which Watercutter said "has just evolved.
Watercutter is happy to offer advice for anyone starting a support group.
Having cancer survivors as speakers is helpful to group members, Watercutter said. "They will look at me and say, 'You went through it all,'" she said.
She understands the attraction. When she had cancer, Watercutter also would turn to other cancer survivors.
The support group facilitators don't tell people what to do or whom to see for medical care. If there is a question about treatment that he cannot answer, Dr. Machicao will research and provide information at the next meeting. Other programs successful with the breast cancer group have included Cancer 101 and 101-Plus classes; a tour of the hospital lab; and participation in the Relay for Life event.
Participants are encouraged to keep pathology reports in a folder, along with other documentation, to help recall dates, treatments and procedures. "I have a folder at home with all of my stuff in it. It works. It just makes it easier for you," Watercutter said.
Group members range in age from their 30s into the 80s. The meetings are free and open to anyone, no matter where they received treatment.
If a participant is not coming to a meeting, they often will call Watercutter. "It is just rewarding for me to see not only am I helping myself, but I am helping other people. And, it works," she said. "All of the women I've seen, it has been very helpful. They consider themselves not as best friends, but breast friends," she said.
Starting in October, the breast cancer support group meets the second Tuesday of each month, except June and December, with a November carry-in for the holidays. The group previously met on the third Tuesday of each month.
It is just family now, real family," Watercutter said. "It is pretty wonderful. I can see when the ladies leave they are feeling much better."
The UVMC Cancer Care Center and UVMC as an organization support the groups and use of its facilities for meetings of the community in support of each other, said Jean Heath, RN, BSN, MA, OCN, director, UVMC Cancer Care Center.
"We want everybody to be able to reach out in some way to the group. Whether it's meetings or however we can reach them," Heath said. "There is no pressure. The individual level of participation is what makes you feel comfortable."

The Metropolitan Museum of Art's annual Costume Institute Gala is referred to as the Oscars of the fashion world. The event is hosted by American Vogue's editor-in-chief Anna Wintour and this year's theme was punk.
With some attendees sticking to the theme of the night and others disregarding it completely (including Wintour herself who wore a floral Chanel piece)- here's a look at some of our best and worst dressed.
Were you as impressed by the gowns? Did others make you shudder in fashion-pain? Let us know in the comment box below.

Things would look even worse if I'd brought in Latino, Asian, Black, etc., aspects of American life about which the New Elite is clueless.
Things would look even worse if I'd brought in Latino, Asian, Black, etc., aspects of American life about which the New Elite is clueless.
The problem lies in the extraordinary segregation of certain groups from other groups that goes far beyond everything we've ever known. A Virginia aristocrat in 1780 had far wider experience of different kinds of people than many residents of Georgetown today. The Big Sort by Bill Bishop is an excellent book on this, well worth reading.
I grew up in rural northern Wisconsin. I was raised an evangelical Christian. I went to college at a state university. I live in the metro D.C. area, and am financially secure. This was the "American Dream" we all aspired to. Now, because I don't follow NASCAR, like country music or recognize soybeans (I grew up in dairy country), I'm no longer a real American? By your own admission, only 1/3 of Americans still live in rural areas or small towns. Why do they get to be the real Americans? Why are their values and experiences more "American" than mine?
I'd kind of hoped that people would realize the quiz was tongue-in-cheek. Sounds to me like you actually scored pretty high on the quiz, but, let me repeat, the quiz is not psychometrically up to snuff. Heuristic was the intention
I've heard tea party participants and Republican candidates for office cry about elitism but they point at things like ivy-league college attendance as their evidence. Isn't it a good thing that well-learned people are engaging themselves in the business of the Republic?
Think about the entire experience of life--affluent suburb as a child, to a selective college, on to law school, immediate big income--it's an incredibly restricted experience of American life.
Actually, the first Bush was an exception. Think of the life histories of Truman, Eisenhower, Johnson, Nixon, Reagan, Clinton, Carter--all people with working class or middle class backgrounds
I don't think there is any one behavior that a large majority of Americans share. The issue is the extent to which you've been exposed to a lot of things that your fellow Americans do. Do you have any personal experience, for example, with blue collar life in the US? If no, you've got a big gap in your experience.
Most of the people I know in the New Elite are doing a pretty good job of passing success along. I know a whole lot of their children who are making out like gangbusters, and very few who are not going to replicate their parents' success.
Several times, your article refers to "mainstream America" and implies that this demographic outweighs the "new elite," but no numbers are provided and it is poorly defined within this article. So my question is two-fold: a) what are the criteria for an American citizen to be a member of "mainstream America," and b) exactly how large is this particular demographic and how does it compare to the size of the "new elite" demographic (also not quantified)?
You'll see a book with all those nos in about a year or so--that's where the article came from, but journal articles are not what the Post publishes in Outlook.
Sure. Blue collar was a short-cut. You've just gotta know some people who have jobs where their feet hurt at the end of the day. If you don't, and you've never held such a job yourself, you've got a problem.
The antidote has to come from within. The New Elite have got to make sure that their children get out of the bubble. They are really the audience to which I am preaching.
Do you think the world view differential of average Americans versus elite Americans have a bigger impact? Example: Gallup says that 80 percent of Americans identify as non-liberal, whereas you cite 80 percent of elite Americans self-identify as liberal. Is this a bigger factor than their "living in a bubble" as far as you are concerned with explaining their "disconnect?" Love your book "The Bell Curve" by the way, it should be a standard College Text!
The politics are important, but people fixate on it. Stopped and realized that all the thoughts I want to add to that are way too long to deal with in this format.
Actually, I've come to have a fondess for Bill, after having been, let's say, not on his side during the 1990s. If you grow up as he did, you never leave that part of your experience behind.
Whoa, wait. So I was supposed to drop out of college and find a manufacturing job in order to gain this precious blue-collar experience? Or more realistically, why isn't a knowledge and respect for those who do those jobs enough?
All I can say is that I've propagandized my own children. The saying around the Murray house by one of my daughters is "Dad's idea of the perfect summer job is to work at McDonald's by day and clean toilets by night."
Do you think Glenn Beck represents mainstream America? Should he?
I'm on record as being not a Glenn Beck fan.
I'm already two-thirds of the way through the book. I would give a lot to have access to all the proprietary data that advertisers have about market segments, when it comes to lifestyle distinctions, but there's a fair amount of data in the public domain.
No. Just taking a few days off to prepare this article was a luxury. I'm up against a deadline I'm going to have a hard time meeting.
Yes. But it doesn't make much difference to public policy when a factory worker doesn't know much about life in Potomac, MD. It makes a big difference when the people in senior positions don't know about life a working-class neighborhood.
I've always enjoyed your work, Charles. I've read that the group that is truly discriminated from getting into the elite schools are rural and small town whites. That actually the elite schools in their hunt for campus "diversity" fall all over each other to admit students of color on scholarships, whereas white middle-class students have little chance. It seems it's these admissions policies that contribute to and exacerbate exactly the kind of cultural divide about which you are talking. Do you agree?
The universities are squeezed (though I don't have much sympathy for them). They are so aggressive about ethnic diversity, that they don't have a lot of slots for socioeconomic diversity. Summers was openly worried about this as president of Harvard, but I don't see much being done about it.
The bigger question, Dr. Murray, is what do you know about blue collar life and the mainstream? With your quiz, the picture you painted of "ordinary" America is part nostalgia and part a vicious vision of violence and ignorance. Tongue in cheeck indeed. You see mainstream America as undereducated rural/small town veterans who enjoy watching fast cars, brawls, country music and game shows, who are hooked on apocalyptic religion and who join civic clubs. That your idea of humor? You are a Harvard BA and MIT PhD -- according to your article, you are the new elitist.
Well, I did grow up in Newton, Iowa, with a father who had only a high school education, and have lived for the last 20 years in a little blue-collar/farming town in Maryland (we're not talking horse country here), sending my kids to local public schools. I'm not COMPLETELY out of touch.
It depends on which aspect of the elite you're talking about. The academic and intellectual elites are extremely secular, but not business elites.
Yes, I suppose having to punch the community service part of your application to Harvard is better than nothing. But there's a Lady Bountiful aspect to a lot that (Thursday night, 6-7:30, soup kitchen).
I work in Ballston with a bunch of DOD lawyers. Back a few yers ago over at the mall these elitist snobs were turning up their noses at the auto techs from American Service Center. I chimed in they make more than you do. What. Yeah a journeymen level tech gets half the labor so they are making about $60 a hour with bonus for a 40-hour week. No huge student loans paid, etc., and they making about $130k+ and are 27-years-old. That LLB or JD gets you far huh!
One of the worst things about current HS education is that it tells kids that they can either be lawyers or work at McDonalds, and never talk about the many interesting and well-paying jobs that are out there. I think the TV show Dirty Jobs is one of the great public service shows out there.
As I said in another post, I want the New Elite to start questioning the choices they're making for themselves and their children. Do they really want their kids to grow up in a hothouse? Do they really want to live in gated communities (gated figuratively or literally)? Is that the way to a satisfying life?
Assembly-line jobs are really boring. In many ways, the skilled jobs out there now are a lot more interesting and rewarding than they used to be--think about all the new technical specialties taht the economy has thrown in the last few decades. But don't get me started about the evils of the role the BA has come to play in Ameircan life....
There's no tension between demanding your children strive for excellence, and also demanding that your children get out of the bubble.
I think such affirmative action would be great.
It's not a binary world.
Isn't part of the resentment turned on elites a factor of the stunning failure of the finance and housing markets which followed the downsizing of corporate america during the 80s? Except for the tech boom, which came more from Stanford than Harvard, what tangible results have current elites delivered? The robber barons of the 19th century may have lived opulant life styles but they also built railroads, steel mills, factories and the real J.P. Morgan never asked the government for a bailout. The 21st century elites seem content to pat themselves on the back for their eduction and sophistication while the corporations they run file for chapter 11 and come begging the federal government for stimulus. Meanwhile, the average Joe or Jane who trusted their investments, career, retirement and future healthcare to these self- styled masters of the universe is left to sort through the remains of corporate failure and pay the taxes to fix their mistakes.
Sometimes it seems to me that we've constructed an economy that will make the skills lawyers have unreasonably valuable. The amount of talent that we funnel into negotiating the labyrinthine legal and regulatory structures we've created is ridiculous.
Because life in the bubble is sterile and not nearly as textured and interesting as getting out more. Think about all the ways in which life in affluent America is restricted.
What gives the New Elite their edge is largely cognitive ability. Nobody "deserves" that ability. It is as undeserved as the skills that enable people to become virtuoso violinists or NBA stars.
Charles Murray writes: Actually, the first Bush was an exception. Think of the life histories of Truman, Eisenhower, Johnson, Nixon, Reagan, Clinton, Carter--all people with working class or middle class backgrounds ... By this measure, you must agree that President Obama is among out least elitist presidents ever.
I guess the answer comes from readers. To the extent that the examples I gave don't fit your experience or the experience of your friends, you're free to conclude I'm wrong. But the reaction I usually get is that I'm describing something that people worry about it their own lives.
I believe in distributions. But here's an example: Do most of the people in your neighborhood have college degrees--just 50 percent or more? Yes? In the 30,000-odd zip codes of the United States, just 4 percent have that proportion of college graduates among their adults.
You're part of a diminishing minority. You're from the first few generations when there was lots of socioeconomic churning going on, as people got opportunities their parents were denied. That churning is subsiding. That's the problem.
I think America can prosper economically and in terms of national power just fine with the stratified system we're creating. It just won't feel much like America any more.
It's become an artificial gatekeeper for a lot of jobs that has nothing to do with the real requirements for holding those jobs, and has acquired way too much status (or, more accurately, not having a BA has acquired way too much stigma)
I would argue that it DOES "make much difference to public policy when a factory worker doesn't know much about life in Potomac, Md.," because people vote for people they agree with. If rural people don't know what it is like to live in a crowded suburb or city, they won't support things like bigger road or public transit budgets, because those things aren't much of an issue in THEIR experience. It go both ways.
Good point. But there's still an asymmetry to the costs of the factory worker's ignorance and the secretary of transportation's ignorance (whoever he or she may be. I don't know offhand).
Could be.
I'm a big fan of classical education, period, for all sorts of reasons. ED Hirsch is my guy for K-12
I don't think of it that way--moving up or downscale. It's about getting to know who your fellow citizens are.
So the response of the tea party is to take us back to zero knowledge based policies? Can America survive being governed for a generation by know-nothings?
Elites rule countries by definition. There isn't a society except hunter-gatherers which hasn't been ruled by an elite. You don't want people at the top who are clueless about large numbers of people over whose lives they have so much influence.
I must not have communicated clearly.
I fit the definition of the elite by virtue of my job. I like to think that I'm not in the bubble.
It proves you live in a REALLY unusual neighborhood, statistically. An interesting datum.
If that's the way you think of the people in those 96 percent of Zip codes, I think the correct response from me is, QED.
I suppose it is too glib to say the results of the election next yes. Yes, I'm sure it is too glib. So I won't say it.
I don't know how one would come up with a specific proportion. If you specify the socioeconomic composition of people in various kinds of jobs--where they grew up, where they went to schools, the things they didn't do, etc., you get a portrait of a class. Are there lots of exceptions? Sure.
Harvard grads don't seem to be having much problem.
Education is out of sync with American working life. There was an article in Saturday's Post on how we're learning too much math: How much math do we really need? Way too many people go to college in this country.
Maybe two or three times too many.
Okay, if I must get political: The liberal New Elite has attracted a firestorm of opposition that I interpret as being an indirect indicator of not having a real firm grasp on the center-right nature of the electorate.
With today's information age (Internet especially) the bubble has burst to a degree. It is hard to be ignorant if one watches the news, which I am sure the elite do.
In a way, the explosion of information sources has made segmentation easier, not harder. People select the sources that they prefer, which means they can avoid (if they wish) everyone who doesn't agree with them.
That would do it indeed.
Can't make this point quickly, but I'm not really making points about how to make better policy in the piece, or in the new book. I'm asking about how we deal with a new class structure that is unlike anything we've seen before in this country, and that is antagonistic to a lot of the things that we've most loved about the nature of our society.
We actually have more resources for that kind of training than most people realize, but high school counselors, for various reasons, think they have to tell everyone they should go to college.
Comparing neighborhoods to zip codes is comparing apples to much larger apples. I live in a city with some of the highest dropout rates in the country but in a neighborhood you would have to have a decent job to afford to live in. Am I elite or not?
I'm really bemused by the notion that "Am I elite or not?" is a question that has a binary answer.
The answer there is to push a lot of liberal education back into K-12. Shouldn't have to wait for college to get exposure to a lot of that.
Lack of space. But I agree with your point.
Well, it would be a lot better than nothing.
Just gotta write better, I guess. Out of time.

Matt Magill of the Chattanooga LookoutsPhoto by John Rawlston /Chattanooga Times Free Press.
The Chattanooga Lookouts will put the Southern League's strikeout leader and the top prospect in the Los Angeles Dodgers organization on the mound the next two nights as they open their divisional playoff series in Jackson.
Matt Magill will start tonight's 7:05 EDT game, with Zach Lee scheduled for Friday night's matchup. Magill went 11-8 with a 3.75 earned run average in the regular season, started each series down the stretch, and wound up with 168 strikeouts in 146 innings.
"Matt has been in this position for a big part of the second half, and he's done a good job of giving us momentum for the rest of the series," Lookouts manager Carlos Subero said Wednesday. "He's minimized the damage when he's had to and has gotten into a pretty good groove and dominated hitters one after another.
"We definitely feel pretty good about Matt going this first game."
Lee, a former LSU quarterback signee, was promoted from high Single-A on June 25 and struggled at first. Lee exited July with an 0-2 record and a 7.92 ERA, but he is now 4-3 with a 4.25 ERA.
"Zach had a good August and is having a good September," Subero said. "He never lost confidence in his execution and his pitches. His last six starts have been outstanding, and he pitched well against Jackson his last time here."
Chattanooga went just 6-9 against Jackson during the regular season but won last month's series at AT&T Field three games to two. The Generals posted the best overall record in the league at 79-61, followed by Montgomery (74-63) and Chattanooga (73-65).
"They're a very good team, and we always seem to play very competitively," Lookouts outfielder Nick Buss said. "They're usually great series, and that makes for fun baseball."
Said Subero: "They won the most games in the league this year, so that tells you they should be a good, solid team."

Yes I spoke to them a few weeks ago and they have not ordered any Cabourn AW13
I posted a while ago that I overheard a conversation where Nigel said it was because they were concerned about him opening a London store

It's gonna be a bout a month before I'm back in Edinburgh to take a look in person but I'm definitely interested in that aircraft jacket and the business jacket.
When and where is the NC store opening in London?
I do know that Nigel was looking at Mayfair a while ago but have not heard anything since
Opening a store in London is a colosal investment and it would be my guess that it has been put on hold to see how the web store goes in the UK
From what I know the UK is not Nigels main market - Japan and Germany are far more appreciative of the investment in quality, small production runs, British made, and the high cost that goes with it
Having said that, I think a flagship Nigel Cabourn shop in London would do well if it covered a full inventory of sizing from size 44 including some Mainline pieces from Japan
I would certainly make a special trip
(Hoping someone at Cabourn reads this)
More Cabourn information hot off the press
Corniche and Flannels have just taken delivery of their first Nigel Cabourn Women pieces - the Mallory jackets.
Corniche have photographed them and will going on line soon. Flannels take a bit longer to go on line but expect them in the next week. I am going down to an evening party at Flannels for another designer in a couple of weeks so hopefully I will get to see them there.
The Nigel Cabourn Women coats and Cameramen (or are they Camerawomen?) jackets are following later this month.
End Clothing have received a few more mens pieces and have gone on line today -a nice navy hooded top, a couple of simple well cut Harris tweed jackets and the Aircraft with the bellow pockets that Drew wore in the early release style shoot (also at Corniche).
There is going to be a mens navy peacoat jacket seen photographed on the Cabourn website but there is going to be a delay - expected in shops later this month.

I soak these is salted water overnight, drain and resalt them and dehydrate them for a few hours on low heat and they are crispy and very fun and healthy to eat. The soaking removes the phytic acid found all grains and nuts. It is a substance that keep us from absorbing iron, calcium, magnesium and zinc.
Organic Sunflower Seeds

Excellent product! Extremely healthy. Just what raw sunflower seeds should be! We put these on salads and also use them in our morning breakfast shake (and alternate days with pumpkin, sesame, flax, or chia seeds): In a quart mason jar, put 2 to 4 raw organic eggs, 1 scoop whey protein powder, 1/4 can coconut milk, 1 tsp. psyllium husks powder, and 1 Tbsp. of the above seeds, then fill in with some water and use the hand blender. DELICIOUS and filling! A definite plus that these are ORGANIC!
Terrific Organic Sunflower Seeds. See offers, more in my profile

Organic, natural, and big bag. These seeds are unsalted and are good for meals, yogurt, cereal, smoothies or recipes, or for healthy snacking out of the bag. Good buy.
ok, lots of yellowish seeds though

These are alright. I've never seen such tiny, thin sunflower seeds before, so I don't know what that's about. Also there are A LOT of discolored seeds-yellow or yellowish that taste a little off. Thought maybe my first bag was a freak, but every bag I've ordered has many off-colored, funky tasting seeds that should have been picked out, so I would definitely say quality control is lacking. I have the exact same problem with Now's pumpkin seeds, soooo.... Think I'll give up with this brand and try a different organic one for comparison. Can't say i would recommend this product.
Easy to eat and use in salads and to make tahini

We like all of the Now Foods organic salt free and raw nuts and seeds! We use these for snacking, on salads, in recipes and just throw in the blender to make tahini! They are good for snacking too, but they really are magic in the blender instead of tahini.

The Arcade Fire Crown Of Love Lyrics
Last updated: 09/30/2013 12:58:26 PM
They say it fades if you let it
Love was made to forget it
I carved your name across my eyelids
You pray for rain, I pray for blindness
If you still want me, please forgive me
The crown of love is fallen from me
If you still want me, please forgive me
Because the spark is not within me
I snuffed it out before my mom walked in my bedroom
The only thing that you keep changin'
Is your name, my love keeps growin'
Still the same, just like a cancer
And you won't give me a straight answer
If you still want me, please forgive me
The crown of love has fallen from me
If you still want me please forgive me
Because your hands are not upon me
I shrugged them off before my mom walked in my bedroom.
The pains of love, and they keep growin'
In my heart there's flowers growin'
On the grave of our old love
Since you gave me a straight answer
If you still want me, please forgive me
The crown of love is not upon me
If you still want me, please forgive me
'Cause the spark is not within me
It's not within me, it's not within me
You gotta be the one
You gotta be the way
Your name is the only word that I can say
You gotta be the one
You gotta be the way
Your name is the only word , the only word that I can say
Only one that I can say
La, la, la
La, la, la
Thanks to Eric for submitting Crown Of Love Lyrics.
Someone being caught by the mom | Reviewer: Alan | 9/13/13
I thought this song was about someone who had to stop whatever it was they were doing before their mother caught them in the act. I think it's about masturbation. The line about their mom coming into their bedroom is repeated and quite obvious.
yeah | Reviewer: Nelson | 8/3/12
You guys who are saying this song is anti-religious are really missing the mark, not to mention the band is mormon. Notice they never curse...in any of their songs. It's all about love, losing love, and just life in general. Things beyond religious views and quite frankly deeper. They speak to the human experience.
OH MY GOD FOR REAL! | Reviewer: Stephanie | 9/1/10
Will You people stop it with the religious debates!!?? If the band is religious or not, it is nobody's problem!!! The messages in the lyrics are spiritual, individual and social messages/themes. Spirituality has nothing to do with religion or dogma. Religion is meant to lead and command and spirituality is meant to help find the inner self of each being that looks for it and beyond. Pleasee!!! You people are speaking by fanatism... take a one-way ticket inside yourselves and dare to find, see and reveal who you really are, I can bet an infinite million that what you find will be very different from what religion and the schemes imposed in society tell you to be... oh yeah!
to someone special | Reviewer: Anonymous | 8/31/10
my love is fading for this special someone... however, i'd still remember him no matter what. i wished he was the one, but then i realised that nothing will ever last forever. so, "if you still want me, please forgive me", 'cuz "the crown of love has fallen from me..."
Everything | Reviewer: Greg | 8/11/10
Man, we are all living this song. Seriously, whats being said here is that for I suppose our real like soulmate sort of love its hard work to get it. Its like he wants a straight answer, takes so long to get the guts to get it, then he hears it and its most likely something he didn't want to hear but it got him to know her better or something so he learned to love her more... idk theres so much to it, basically it seems just like you are my everything, the end.
fading love | Reviewer: Anonymous | 6/8/10
One way you could take it (how I took it) is that the guy is realizing that he doesn't love his girlfriend,wife,lover, whatever, anymore. I get this when he says ...
"the crown of love has fallen from me..."
"the spark is not within me"
there is no spark anymore. He is trying not to forget his love and keep it from fading "carves their name across his eyelids" but it's no use.
It's not that he loves someone else, in fact maybe he is weary of going through person after person, love after love. Which is why he says "you gotta be the one" because he can't go through another relationship. He wants to have found "the one" so badly.
He isn't sure if his lover feels the same way. Maybe it's been a long relationship and the magic is just not there anymore. He wonders if they feel it too when he says...
"If you still want me, please forgive me"
Meh... | Reviewer: Anonymous | 5/23/10
KeeKee, You've basically got it right with your thoughts about love, it's not about religion. But, KeeKee, "I'm a really REALLY serious Christian, I go to church each and every Sunday...". I'm an Atheist, and even I know that going to church doesn't have anything to do with Your faith. Yes, it's good to, and You should try to as a Christian. But, if You really are a "really, Really serious Christian" You should be able to pronounce Your faith a little differently...
i think.. | Reviewer: keekee | 12/13/09
i'm a serious christian, like a really REALLY serious one i go to church every single sunday... and i can't really see how is this song related to the religion. Is about someone that was inlove and messed up everything, the other person left him behind and he's asking for forgiveness, cause without her every little thing hurts... and memories crush him... Love is the best thing you'll ever feel, closest thing we have to magic.. makes you stupidly happy one second the next makes you feel like numb and sometimes comes huge pain with it... (sorry if my writing sucks, my first lenguage is Spanish)
Religious Views of the Group | Reviewer: Graham | 11/30/09
Addressing Justin, I'd say in general, the band takes a very rebellious stance rather than anti-religious one, and that stance comes out in a multitude of outlets (including, prominently, familial relationships).
in regards to beoptimistic | Reviewer: cannot say | 11/6/09
it is so crazy that you would make a music video like that. i married a man when i was in love with someone else. i always think of this song and how i want to send it to the man i love, just so he can see how i think about him everyday and how i regret not being with him. how im still in love with him and how im so torn up about it. i think you described the song perfectly. unfortunately.
Different | Reviewer: Justin | 4/5/09
Just heard this band perform live in Austin. I can honestly say they are very unique and fresh. I was a little put-off by the consistent anti-religious message that their songs seem to take. Perhaps I was interpreting them wrong as some of these posts seem to state.
Err, really? | Reviewer: Anonymous | 10/21/08
I'm reading an awful lot about this being about religion... really? That seems off. READING the lyrics conjuring up a much simpler picture - that sort of teenage love you get that comes on so strong, and yet goes away in an instant. It depicts a strong obsession that was "snuffed out before my mom walked into a bedroom", alluding to the innocent, oft hidden and oft guilty feelings teenagers seem to have for each other.
What's all this nonsense about religion?
My interpretation of the song | Reviewer: Anonymous | 10/2/08
This song is not at all about religion. It's about the pain of unrequitted love, and how shreds of hope leave you tortured. In the sentence, "I carved your name across my eyelids," he is saying that when her name (and any other thoughts of her) come across his mind, he tortures himself by letting him think of her. It's tragically romantic. You have to admit it, "Your name is the only word that I can say!" is pretty damn charming.
Bow Chicka Bow Wow | Reviewer: seb | 9/30/08
LOL! Arcade Fire is so anti-religious it's hilarious you should think this song is about God. Why don't you go listen to the Neon Bible and tell me what you think.
Good song, by the way. A little dramatic though!
Jalapeno | Reviewer: Anonymous | 8/29/08
whether the song is christian or not shouldn't really matter. If you'd pardon my unitarian response here for a moment, the beauty of the song that you can interpret it any way you'd like to, and share it with people.
'if you want me, please forgive me' could easily reflect the way all of us feel about repentance. Because traditionally, you seek God, he does not seek you.
It could also be a spoken to the girl he loves. Overall he's humbling himself before someone. like that wedding one that was posted earlier. and that unmistakeable. his voice and his tone show the love-stricken vulnerability.
Interpretation is half the fun, and I think this band intentionally rides the line with so many of their songs to bring their two different fanbases together.

Think you don't regret all those high school afternoons wasted at the mall or the skate park? Just wait till you meet Sophia Vartanian, a Vancouver, B.C.-based urban farmer. At 16 years old, her resume is already more impressive than some twice her age. On the day we spoke, she was busy wrestling a solar panel project into fruition, laying the groundwork for a farm at her high school, and gearing up to deliver a TEDxKids B.C. talk titled "Don't Eat Your Farmer."
Vartanian gave me a tour of her high school - or rather, her high school lawn, which currently houses a few sparsely planted raised beds. The sunflowers and radishes had gone to seed, and although it was a valiant effort at community gardening, it was also a far cry from the full-fledged farm she has planned. She envisions a closed-loop system complete with compost, grey water reclamation, and rainwater collection - and, of course, lots of vegetables. "We want chickens and goats too; that's the ideal," she adds.
Vartanian intends that the farm become "a part of the school's fabric, something that grows along with the whole community," an educational tool as well as a source of healthy food for the cafeteria. She admits she's been known to starve when she forgets her lunch because she's uncomfortable with where the cafeteria food comes from. This young farmer's idea of a closed loop doesn't stop at compost. She'd like to see biology students learning hands-on at the farm, and home-ec students putting their talents to the test on freshly harvested veggies, creating a different sort of school lunch - one she would actually eat.

I suffered a torn rotator cuff as a result of my positioning during my transplant and it took some time to recover from that. I did not have any surgery I simply learned to live with it. I also incurred steroid induced diabetes as a result of the transplant and now have a fair amount of neuropathy in my feet. I have found that I fatigue much…Continue

Hi,First post folks. I'll begin with quick background: My 15-year old daughter had a heart transplant 6 months ago after having severe dilated cardiomyopathy with left ventricular noncompaction (now known to be a result of a genetic mutation original to her). Anyway, transplant was at the highly acclaimed Columbia/NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital - to which we moved for waiting for the heart, transplant, and follow-up care. Now, 6 months after transplant, we moved back to our home. Our medical…Continue

Hi, My wife had a double lung transplant, 16 years ago this Sunday. At the age of 27, dying from CF, she was gifted life by the transplant team at MGH in Boston, and two non-related living donors. We've been together for 8 years and I play both roles of husband and caregiver.Although her sweet 16 "Lungaversary" is Sunday, on Monday she goes for a major surgery (not pulmonary related).

Where to Obtain a Straight Talk Wireless Prepaid Cellular Phone
Straight Talk Phone phones are only available to be purchased in a couple of places. However you will only be able to find a free Straight Talk Prepaid Cell Phone via the internet at the Straight Talk Website . Straight Talk Wireless Prepaid Cellphone are also available at almost every Wal-mart in the US. Even so I have never found a free Straight Talk Cell Phone at Wal-mart.
Welcome to Our Review Site!
Disclosure: We are a professional review site that receives compensation from the companies whose products we review. We have tested and reviewed the equipment or services ranked here. We are independently owned and the opinions expressed here are our own.
The Only Option for Getting Free Straight Talk Wireless Prepaid Mobile Phone
At the the Straight Talk Website Website you will be able to get a free phone with the purchase of a Prepaid Phone card. You can usually get a free phone when purchasing either the "All you need" plan or the "Unlimited" plan.
Free Straight Talk Phone Options
Often before certain Holidays like Christmas, Mothers Day, Fathers Day and the 4th of July Straight Talk will put several different phone and phone packages on sale. Usually they will offer a nicer than usual phone free with the purchase of a phone card. I have seen the LG 620G Slider Phone, , Samsung T404G Qwerty keyboard, Samsung R355c Qwerty Blackberry style, and the Samsung R451c Qwerty Keyboard cell phone offered as free phones with the purchase of a Straight Talk prepaid card.
Warning Concerning Reconditioned Cellular phones
In my experience there are a few more difficulties with reconditioned cell phones. Nonetheless I would not hesitate to purchase a reconditioned Straight Talk Wireless Prepaid Mobile Phone, so long as I wasn't having to pay in excess of about $30 for it. I would buy two refurbished phones at a time because I always like having a spare charger and a spare battery. Paying a little extra up front can sometimes save you a lot, .
Two Free Phones at the Same Time
I know that sounds funny purchasing a free Straight Talk Prepaid mobile phone but you must purchase a calling card in order to get a free phone. You can make use of the prepaid card that comes with your free phone on any Straight Talk phone.
There are lots of very good reasons for purchasing two phones at once. To begin with in case you are obtaining the phones for free or only being required to purchase another monthly card to obtain one, you aren't out much . It is very helpful to have an extra phone charger to have at the office or to always keep in your travel bag. Additionally It is also handy to have a extra battery that is fully charged for your phone.
Another advantage to buying two free phones at the same time is in the event that the first phone you activate has a problem or is defective you will not have to wait for Straight Talk Wireless to mail you an additional phone. You will be able to just activate the spare you bought.
Obtaining a Spare Battery for your Phone
If you purchase two free phones at the same time you might find it really handy to have a spare battery for your phone. It seems when you seriously need to have a phone badly the battery will be dead. Furthermore after around a year of service many mobile phone batteries cannot hold a charge for as long .
How to get a Free Charger for your Phone
Again when you are getting a phone free when purchasing a monthly card from it is sensible to order two phones and monthly cards when you make your purchase.
Losing your Mobile Phone Charger
Have you ever lost your cell phone charger in a hotel room or at work and needed a spare? Having to stop by Radio Shack will most likely set you back twenty to thirty dollars .
The only option for getting a Free Straight Talk phone is at the Straight Talk.com website. Check what they have now.
How Straight Talk Prepaid Works
How Wal-mart Straight Talk Prepay Wireless Works
The Straight Talk Wireless Prepay plans are built to be competitive with contract mobile phone plans. A 2 year contract cellular plan will require you to sign a one year or two year long term contract to get service. Straight Talk Wireless is prepaid so that you pay for your service before you use it and if you use all your units or the time period expires you lose service. You will not get a end of contract fee and if you want to begin service again you will have to buy a Straight Talk phone card and reactivate your mobile phone.
Walmart Straight Talk is a partnership with Walmart, Tracfone prepay and Verizon. All phones are CDMA and work on the Verizon Wireless network.
Straight Talk Wireless Prepaid has two plans the $30 per month All You Need plan and the $45 monthly Unlimited plan.
All You Need Plan
This plan offers 1,000 minutes per 30 days, 1,000 texts per month and 30 meg of data transfer per thirty days. This Tracfone Straight Talk program will cost you $30 per month.
Unlimited Plan
This Straight Talk Wireless Prepaid plan serves up unlimited calling, unlimited texts and unlimited data transfer for $45 per thirty days.
You can invest in your Straight Talk Wireless Prepaid Phone or service on the web at Straight Talk.com or at Walmart.

Starla Haley had a bowel obstruction, (the distended belly shows this), which resulted in post birth complications, some of this is subject to a lawsuit the parents filed this week against the doctors and Erlanger.Photo by Contributed Photo /Chattanooga Times Free Press.
On Oct. 1, the Tennessee medical malpractice reform act became law. The act caps damages such as "pain and suffering" to $750,000 and limits punitive damages to twice compensatory damages or $500,000, whichever is greater.
The new law applies only to incidents that occurred after the reform went into effect.
Source: Tennessee Code
The parents of a 16-month-old girl have filed a medical malpractice lawsuit against Erlanger hospital, three local doctors and two doctors' groups for what they claim were negligent decisions that disabled their daughter for life.
Attorney Olen Haynes, of Johnson City, Tenn., filed the suit Wednesday in Hamilton County Circuit Court for Brandon and Melissa Haley, of Dalton, Ga., and their daughter Starla Haley.
The complaint alleges that on July 17, 2010, Dr. Valerie Parker chose to deliver Starla vaginally rather than by a planned Caesarian section and over protests from both parents.
The couple's doctor had ruled the pregnancy high-risk when Dr. Shawn Stallings found "fetal bowel loops" in Starla. The loops caused her belly to swell 25 percent larger than her head and doctors believed that a vaginal delivery could cause twisting in her intestines or a rupture, the lawsuit states.
It also claims that a one-day delay in surgery further complicated problems caused by the delivery.
The lawsuit does not list a dollar amount but asks for a jury trial to determine damages for Starla's "medical costs, considerable pain and suffering, physical and mental anguish."
The Haleys are suing Erlanger hospital, Regional Obstetrical Consultants, University Surgical Associates, Dr. Carlos Torres, Stallings and Dr. Lisa Ann Smith.
Erlanger spokeswoman Pat Charles said Friday that "none of the individuals named in this suit are Erlanger physicians or staff."
Michael Ringering, spokesman for University Surgical Associates, which employs Smith, said Friday, "We do not comment on pending litigation."
Regional Obstetrical Consultants staff, which employ Stallings, Parker and Torres, did not return calls for comment.
Lawyers for the defendants have 30 days, unless granted an extension, to file an answer to the complaint.
Smith and University Surgical Associates also are named in an ongoing Circuit Court lawsuit by Thomas and Tanesa Craig. Their daughter Lydia Ann Craig, age 8, died Nov. 18, 2008, one month after Smith performed abdominal surgery on her.

Difficult Delivery
When Parker told the Haleys that Starla would not be delivered by C-section, Brandon Haley, 37, couldn't believe what was happening.
His wife was in labor, he said in an interview, and he tried explaining to the doctor that this was a high-risk pregnancy and the surgery had been planned for a month. But Parker wouldn't listen, he said.
"We were stuck with no option," he said.
At least the planned surgery to fix loops in her intestine would happen quickly, he thought.
But the surgery, which Torres told the Haleys would be immediate, didn't happen for more than a day, Haley said.
When Starla went back for the operation, Haley said, the parents were assured that everything would be fine. But 45 minutes later doctors called the couple to the neonatal intensive care unit office.
"They told us we needed to sit down," Melissa Haley said. "I knew there was something wrong."
Smith told them Starla wasn't going to make it, the couple said. The surgery revealed an "intra-abdominal catastrophe" from the twisted abdominal loops. Blood flow cut off from the bowels had killed too much tissue, the Haleys said they were told.
"She told me that and my heart sank," Melissa said. "We had no idea what we could do. We had no help."
Brandon said the doctors told them they had two options -- take Starla home and feed her sugar water until she died or keep her in the hospital under medication until she died.
The Haleys started asking questions. Could they do a transplant? Were there facilities that specialized in Starla's problem? Hospital staff and their doctors gave them conflicting answers, they said.
The Haleys found that the Nebraska Medical Center in Omaha performed intestinal transplants on infants and fought to have Starla transferred. After a lot of red tape, they said, their daughter arrived at the Nebraska facility on Aug. 18, 2010.
Six months later, they returned home to Dalton. They had to learn how to keep Starla healthy, operate a feeding pump and other medical equipment. They keep their home as clean as a hospital because Starla's immune system is so weak a common cold could kill her.
Starla is categorized as disabled, visits a doctor every two weeks and may not be able to attend school due to her susceptibility to illness, the Haleys said.
"They'll never be able to make up for what she lost," Melissa said. "The thing I hope is that they'll never be able to do this to another family."

Tort reform gets good political points - claiming to lower health care costs by lowering malpractice insurance premiums. However, the best defense to malpractice is don't do it. Of course this case will be decided by a jury if not settled, but the caps on recovery will make it very difficult for this family to be financially compensated to a proper degree.

As a former Labor & Delivery RN, my heart sank when I read the Haley's horrible experiences with MD's who seemed to not listen. Without knowing all the details, I only want to exhort any RN who firmly believes that s/he is witnessing a breach in best practices or standards of care to speak up. Enlist a supervisor, a department head or even the CEO of the hospital if you have to, but do everything you can to advocate for the patient/family. You will never regret preventing a medical tragedy. Not doing all you can to prevent one will haunt you the rest of your life. Trust me.

Detroit does mass-market e-car deal with Proton
Solipsistic, or just overly egocentric?
"Still useless
By Jeff "
You can't do that drive in a gas-powered car without refilling, either. Obviously, charging tech and battery life need to improve before electric cars are competitive for your specific, isolated purpose. However, there is no point in holding back production of viable products simply because they do not meet the needs of certain edge cases. The vast majority of potential customers DO live in urban areas. Further, most long trips occur along coridors with substantially more infrastructure support than a particlarly isolated stretch of the Australia.
Hardly useless, just not sufficient to your unusual needs, yet.
Google disguises capitalism as civil rights
Get over it! Worst Argument Ever
The repeated argument that ISPs should be able to charge Google et al a premium to transport their packets is patently ridiculous.
-I- pay my ISP for access to whatever-the-hell-I-want-to-access. Why should the ISP be able to double dip and then charge conteet providers who are NOT their customers? The cost of transporting that packet is paid for by the ISP customer who is downloading it. Google, MSNBC, and gamerfansite.net pay their own IPSs for access.
It's easy to blabber about the billion dollar variety of content provider. Us hoi polloi are required by statute to rail against them. However, the reasoning is not one whit different whether the ISP is attempting to extort Google or your mothers knitting circle. If an ISP is tampering with the content available to me by selectively racketerring content providers, I'll take my business elsewhere.
NASA inks deal for ISS plasma drive tests
Slightly Misleading?
The article seems to imply that this is a new technology. While the specific engine in question is new, the ion drive technology was in operation 10 years ago aboard Deep Space 1. The old engine was referred to as NSTAR and was reportedly developed at a NASA research facility. Perhaps Ad Astra and the VASIMR engine are descendants or spinoffs of that project?
It's Time that Google forgot
No, Google should NOT be Pretending to know this detail
It is the newspaper company which provided the article which needs to provide the date. It is the user who bears responsibility for looking at the date. Google can not attempt to parse the article for the date. Misrepresenting the date, for whatever reason, would be worse than leaving the responsibility where it belongs: with the reader and with the provider.
This is a non-story from Google's perspective. The issue is with irresponsible actions on the part of the reader.
Big Climate's strange 'science'
Comforting Words?
We are in an ice age right now. What hollywood portrays as ice ages are glaciations within ice ages. The Earth is much warmer than this current state, otherwise, with higher sea levels and no ice caps. We are not necessarily "coming out" of this ice age, as a previous poster suggested. We are in the midst of an interglacial period, where the glaciers have receded. This is by it's nature a transient state, but it is the state in which human civilization has risen.
Whether or not the current, relatively rapid, climate change is anthropogenic, it should be of concern. We have over six billion humans on this planet, in fairly precarious circumstances. If the world were to get substantially colder or warmer it would pose a serious problem.
Too many people get caught up in the debate over the cause of climate change. The results of the change are what matter. We know that we can affect the climate. We know that the climate is changing. We know that a much colder or much warmer Earth would likely prove disastrous for current population levels and distributions. Therefore, we know that we need to act to constrain climate change.
Blind optimism is often comforting, but perhaps the author should pursue a regimen of education on the subject before pontificating further.
