Harmless?Trivia brain teasers have some element of trivia in them, but they are not just pure trivia questions.
Marvin and Loren are exploring a forest in Queensland. They spotted a nice rainbow earlier, and then decided to go see the wildlife near the river. Loren spots a weird but harmless looking mammal and goes for a closer look. Marvin yells to be careful because it is venomous. Loren laughs, thinking Marvin must be joking. Unfortunately Loren gets too close and is stung in the hand. Loren starts to cry out in pain. Marvin comes over to Loren to tell him how stupid he is, but at least the venom is not lethal. What did Loren get stung by?
HintIt's not related to a duck but...
AnswerDuckbill Platypus
Male platypuses have venomous spurs.

(sighs) Well, I'm sure that virtually every regular User on this wiki is up-to-date on everything going on, so I'll cover the important stuff. On November 3rd, Monaco, the skin our wiki currently uses will be taken down in favor Wiki's latest skin, called "Oasis". As most of the wiki refuses to stand for this, we have decided to sever ties with Wikia and move. A problem however, is that moving normally causes a wiki to have to start from scratch, including new Usernames. However, as of late I have been negotiating with "Fastest Thing Alive" (abreviated as FTA), founder of FindTheComputerRoom.com, concerning FTCR taking in our wiki. Now, FTA has said that he could move the wiki with no information loss whatsoever, no strings attached.
However, there is a problem: our affiliates. Now, I've been telling FTA that we as a wiki will not simply abandon our affiliates to have to deal with Oasis for our own benefit. This has been a point of negotiation with FTA, as at the moment he is unwilling to move our affiliates. As such, I feel that before a final decision is reached, the whole wiki should be asked about whether or not we should abandon our affiliates.
However, there is good news. Nero, a User on both SNN and SFW, has an alternate solution. His father owns and runs his own hosting site, which could possibly move SNN, its affiliates, and possibly non-Sonic wikis under the same conditions FTA offered, no strings attached. However, FTCR is at the same time a good opportunity for the SNN, so here's a summary:
FTA's offer:
- All of the wiki's information is moved, including ranks, usernames, skin, and contributions.
- We would have access to a Sonic website, which could potentially be a good opportunity for SNN to improve itself. I have not been to FTCR myself, so I don't know the details.
- We may have to abandon some, most, or all of our affiliates, leaving them stuck with Wikia.
- In order to get our affiliates moved as well, we may have to negotiate with FTCR in order to sweeten the deal, such as continuing to host advertizements, or some other compromise.
Nero's offer:
- All of the wiki's information could be moved, including ranks, usernames, skin, and contributions.
- We would be hosted by a simple hosting site.
- Every single one of our affiliates could be moved under the same terms as SNN, as well as non-Sonic wikis.
- Depending on how things go with FTA, we could still be affiliated with FTCR.
With the change coming in 21 days, I can't with good concious continue negotiations until I hear out the rest of the wiki. So, I must ask these following questions:
- Would the wiki be willing to abandon all of our affiliate wikis entirely, as well as the Users on those wikis, for SNN's benefit?
- If not, are there any wikis we could cut ties with, such as MASATOG wiki, foreign language Sonic Wikis, and Wikia Gaming?
- What would we be willing to do in order to get some of our affiliates moved?
- Would SNN be okay with being hosted by a generic hosting site (don't know the details of it) in exchange for all of our affiliates being moved as well, no strings attached?
- If we go with this option, what other non-Sonic wikis would any of you suggest for moving as well?
Well, that's it; all that's left is to make the decision(s). Personally, I can't stand the idea of leaving our fellow Sonic wikis behind, regardless of conditions.

CIRENCESTER moved up to second place in the Readers Gloucestershire County League Division One table with an eventually decisive 72-run victory at local rivals Poulton on Saturday.
Readers Glos CCL Div One
Poulton 103 all out
Cirencester 175 all out
Having lost just once this season, the Town were clear favourites to overcome a home side that had struggled thus far, but on a wicket affected by the heavy Friday night thunderstorms, they did not have it all their own way as Poulton battled hard to stay in contention until their batting subsided in the closing overs.
In the event it was the efforts of in-form all-rounders Gareth Williams and Jock Jamieson-Black that once again turned the tide Cirencester's way.
Having elected to bat, Town skipper, Williams saw his side through an initial collapse to register his third half-century of the campaign and also picked up two vital wickets after tea, while Jamieson-Black hit 24 and then followed up with a devastating spell of left-arm-spin taking 4-11 in nine overs which ended Poulton's hopes of a successful chase.
The Town were forced to struggle early in their innings however as Will Mason was caught off Robbie James having only just got off the mark and Ben Moody was smartly run out attempting an ill-judged single with the total on 22.
That soon became 37-3 as Andy Reynolds was bowled by Faizal Beeri, but a solid stand of 55 between Williams and Jamieson-Black steadied the innings, before the latter was caught off the left arm spin of Mark Higginson having hit three boundaries in his 24.
Higginson then exploited the awkward bounce to claim three more victims, eventually trapping Williams leg-before for a hard-earned 62 as the Town faltered to 126-6, but useful contributions from Will Rudd (21) and Simon Rowe (18) helped raise the final total to a respectable 175 before the final wicket fell off the last ball of Town's 45 overs.
When Poulton replied, the pace and accuracy of Ross Jeffels soon proved almost unplayable as he removed Higginson leg-before for three, but Smy (18) and Gordon-Walker (44) survived productively if precariously, until the advent of spinners Williams and Jamieson-Black brought about a decisive collapse.
From 90-3 Poulton slithered to 103 all out, as the middle order disintegrated, Mason and Rudd taking two and three catches respectively, while Andy Cox and Rowe cleaned up the home tail with the last three wickets.

WIGAN boss Uwe Rosler has ordered his players to forget about a return trip to Wembley as they attempt to ruin Burnley's promotion party.
Victory for the Clarets over the beaten FA Cup semi-finalists at Turf Moor will send Sean Dyche's men back into the Premier League along with leaders Leicester, who could claim the title at Bolton on Tuesday evening.
Even a draw could be enough for Burnley after Friday's 1-0 win at Blackpool left them on the brink of promotion.
However, victory for the Latics, who beat Reading 3-0 on the same day, would all but assure them of a play-off berth, and that will be Rosler's only focus.
He said: "There can't be any talk about us getting promotion yet. We need to leave talk of that until we actually achieve it.
"So far, we have taken every game step-by-step and it's been the right thing to do for us.
"That must continue and all we want to focus on now is Burnley.
"If we get to Wembley again, then that will be the time to talk about it."
Rosler is likely to keep faith with midfielder Roger Espinoza while there could also be starting spots for defender Rob Kiernan and goalkeeper Scott Carson – who played in the FA Cup semi-final defeat to Arsenal.

PROPOSALS to honour international soldiers killed during the First World War have been sent to South West Wiltshire MP Andrew Murrison.
The idea, which could see the names of those who died projected in cities across the world, was suggested as part of the country's Great War centennial commemorations in 2014.
The scheme, backed by the Canadian Government, was suggested to Mr Murrison, who is Prime Minister David Cameron's special aid for the centenary events.
He said: "This is a Canadian-backed project, which was trialled in 2008 when the names of First World War dead were projected in Trafalgar Square, on to Canada House, which the Queen attended.
"The idea now is that it is done all around the world, featuring names of soldiers from the countries involved in the war."
If introduced, each home serviceman or woman's name would be displayed individually for several minutes, with those of overseas combatants shown for about 25 seconds.
The families of the war dead would also be able to visit a website to find out when the name of their relative would be on display.
Mr Murrison said the idea needed to be judged on its merits and to stage it in this country would need outside funding, as the Government had already made plans for the commemorations.
He said: "The idea would certainly require a UK partner. I've also seen suggestions that it could by displayed at the Cenotaph, which I wouldn't support.
"If it were to be done, we'd need to find somewhere that is a sensitive and proper location."
The idea of also having names of German soldiers displayed has been considered controversial, but Steeple Ashton First World War expert Steve Williams said he would back such a move.
He said: "They were all young men. They didn't start the war, they just wanted to represent their countries and paid the price.
"This event should be used to reconcile and to consider all the brave people who died in similar circumstances across the world."

Despite holding pick No.2 in the pre-season and national drafts and having a midfield need, Melbourne has ruled out pursuing Richmond's out-of-contract midfielder Dustin Martin, while the Brisbane Lions are prepared to meet with Martin's management and will do their ''due diligence'' before making any play.
Greater Western Sydney is meeting Martin, who has opted to pursue offers from rival clubs after his negotiations with the Tigers stalled, but a number of clubs, including Carlton, Collingwood and - most significantly - the lowly Demons have chosen not to pursue the highly talented and high-maintenance 22-year-old midfielder.
Melbourne's newly appointed senior coach Paul Roos had conversations with Martin's manager, Ralph Carr, after Carr contacted him, but it is understood that the Demons have discussed Martin internally and ruled against pursuing the midfielder, whom clubs believe is seeking about $600,000 a season. Richmond has been close to $100,000 shy of that amount.
Melbourne is believed to have viewed the anticipated price tag for Martin as excessive.
Carlton, touted as a potential bidder for Martin given the club's wish to improve its midfield, also has indicated it is not interested in Martin - contrary to speculation that Mick Malthouse would be willing to punt on the explosive midfielder.
Collingwood, too, is not interested in Martin, despite that club's apparent need for both speed and some bigger bodied midfielders.
The Lions have indicated that they will speak to Martin's management, but any decision to pursue the midfielder would almost certainly require approval by the club hierarchy. The Lions are mindful of the disruption caused by Brendan Fevola's expensive recruitment at the end of 2009, and while the shy Martin is a far cry from the extroverted ''Fev,'' the club will exercise caution before deciding whether Martin is wanted.
Collingwood, meanwhile, is set to put a revised offer this week to Dale Thomas, who is considered likely to walk to Carlton as a free agent. Thomas is slated to have a medical examination by the Blues, who are well placed to sign ''Daisy'' on a long-term deal.
The Blues have not yet been told that free agent small forward Eddie Betts is leaving, though there is little chance of them matching an anticipated massive offer from Adelaide.
Like Thomas, Betts is a restricted free agent, which allows his club to match the nominated bid and retain him. In both instances, this is unlikely.
Melbourne is among the clubs to have shown interest in GWS midfielder Taylor Adams, who is expected to leave the Giants and join a Victorian club. Richmond, Carlton and Geelong have all shown interest in Adams, who has met various Victorian clubs.
Richmond has taken a tough stance on Martin, announcing that the midfielder was fielding offers from other clubs after months of negotiations failed to reach agreement, the club expressing ''disappointment'' that the player was fielding offers.
Martin, however, quickly responded by tweeting that he had not ''walked out'' on the club. Martin said he had asked Carr to request an extension of time from Richmond, ''to allow me to fully consider the options about my future.
''As you can understand, this is a very important decision for myself and my family and one that I won't make lightly.''

Home > Wellness > Health Library > Autism: Behavioral Training and Management
Behavioral training teaches people of all ages who have
autism how to communicate appropriately. This type of
training can reduce behavior problems and improve adaptation skills.
Both behavioral training and behavioral management use positive
reinforcement to improve behavior. They also use social skills training to
improve communication. The specific program should be chosen according to the
child's needs. High-functioning autistic children may be enrolled in mainstream
classrooms and child care facilities—watching the behavior of other normally
developing children can provide examples for autistic children to follow. But
other children are overstimulated in a regular classroom and work best in
smaller, highly structured environments.
Consistent use of these
behavioral interventions produces the best results. The child's functional
abilities, behavior, and daily environment should be thoroughly assessed before
behavioral training and management begins.footnote 1 Parents,
other family members, teachers, and caregivers of the autistic child should all
be trained in these techniques.
Many treatment approaches have
been developed, including:
These treatments are not covered
by all insurance plans.

>General Running>Half Marathon Dilemma
Dad, Runner, Programmer
For the past few months I've been training for two races. A half marathon on April 22nd and my first ultra, a 50 mile, on May 20th. Training was going fine and I was ramping up the mileage into the 60s which is a new high to me. A couple weeks ago, my right calf and Achilles were giving me trouble so I laid off the mileage and ran some short, easy miles for a couple weeks (all my friends were getting injured left and right and I got scared).
Now my calf feels fine again but as a result I have had to twice move my planned 50K training run so I am planning on doing it this weekend which is only a week before my half marathon. I realize that this is not a good plan for tapering before a race, but if I don't do it this weekend, I'll feel like I haven't gotten enough long runs in before my 50 mile.
When I first scheduled these races, I thought the combined schedule for them would be ok, but they are starting to get at odds with each other. If I had to pick one race I care more about, it's the 50 mile.
So my question is what do I do for the half marathon? Should I run it all out like the race it is and I'll be fine? Or am I risking injury doing that? Should I just run it like a fast training run? My PR for the half is soft (1:40) So I feel like I could get a PR without going all out. I'm torn. Any advice would be appreciated.
2015 Goal:For now, keep running!
Feeling the growl again
If I had to pick one race I care more about, it's the 50 mile.
If I had to pick one race I care more about, it's the 50 mile.
I think that's your answer right there. Do the 50K, then a light(ish) week to make sure you recover going into the HM.
Another option would be to do the 50K the weekend after the HM. That still gives you 3 weeks before the 50-miler, plenty of recovery time.

>> That still gives you 3 weeks before the 50-miler, plenty of recovery time.
Maybe. That really depends on the 50k.
>> That still gives you 3 weeks before the 50-miler, plenty of recovery time.
Maybe. That really depends on the 50k.
I'm planning on doing a flat 50k run on a trail to mimic the race I'm running (Dirty German 50). When you say it depends on the 50K do you mean it depends on what I'm planning or how it goes?
Thanks for the response, Spaniel. At this point I'm leaning toward doing the 50K this weekend because I'm anxious to do it because I've already moved it twice. I'll do a light week like you said and then just see where that leaves me for the half. I'm still a bit scared to run fast, but maybe I'm just being paranoid because everyone I know is injured or recovering from injury
3 weeks before the 50 I was going to do 25 miles for my long run.
Actually, I was really meaning the course. 50ks in the mountains and/or on technical trail will beat you up more (certainly more in different places than usual) than courses that aren't so challenging. But that said... flat 50k on road? That'll be a fast day... 31 miles worth... 3 weeks is probably good and plenty.
That said (#2)... "flat 50k to mimic Dirty German". I don't know Dirty German directly, so I just scanned their course info. "flat" and "hilly" are very subjective, but I get the feeling that DG, while not involving real, natty climbs, is going to be more roly poly than outright flat. But everyone means something different when it comes to stuff like this.
Have fun!
FWIW I raced a flat 50K two weeks before my first 100 miler. Three weeks before a 50 miler can be plenty of recovery time, or not, depending on any number of factors.

Skippy?Riddles are little poems or phrases that pose a question that needs answering. Riddles frequently rhyme, but this is not a requirement.
I am unfair, informal and biased;
I am a sham and completely unauthorised.
My history can be traced to the 19th century;
But I can be very relevant today.
Part of my name comes from legal maxims and common law;
Whilst another is derived from judges hopping from place to place.
What am I?
AnswerA Kangaroo Court
A kangaroo court or kangaroo trial is a deceptive legal proceeding or court. It may be a court that has had its integrity compromised; for example, if the judge is not impartial. It may also be an elaborately scripted event intended to appear fair while having the outcome predetermined from the start. The phrase seems to have originated during the California Gold Rush from the notion of proceeding 'by leaps' like the Kangaroo.

Since I don't know what else you've already tried I recommend you to check your settings in BIOS and make sure that USB is set as a first boot-able Device.
I created a BackTrack bootable USB thumb drive with Unetbootin. It's a 4 GB SanDisk, and the laptop is a Compaq Presario CQ60. After I complete the installation, and take out the USB drive, press enter, and reboot, nothing ever comes onto the monitor. Nothing loads at all. I'm using the 32-bit BackTrack 5 .iso image with a Gnome interface. Should I install with a DVD instead? I do not know what to do from here.
Since I don't know what else you've already tried I recommend you to check your settings in BIOS and make sure that USB is set as a first boot-able Device.
I have the same problem, I have tried with both bt5-GNOME-32 and bt5-GNOME-64 on my ASUS 1001px, get the same result!
8 GB ZAP slider pendrive.
I following the instructions on doing a Live USB
(USB Live)
boots with that USB in my eeepc.
runs startx, works perfect.
After that runs the install.sh on the desktop. Following the instructions of (Hard Drive Install)
I do choose my locales, and entire disk partition.
Restarts the computer without USB
Up comes UNetbootin bootloader with only default option.
Loads ubnkern.
Debian installer starts automatically.
Why the wrong bootloader?
Anyone knows why?
Re-run Backtrack live from either usb or disk (disk might be better) and try this in a terminal:
If that doesn't work see this link: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Re...tallingWindowsCode:grub-install /dev/sda
It's a little more in-depth and detailed but should be easy to follow. And I know that you're not trying to "Recover Ubunutu After Installing Windows" but you are wanting to reinstall grub after Backtrack is installed to the hard drive. That should do it if the first suggestion doesn't work.

"Why is it drug addicts and computer afficionados are both called users? "
I followed the Ubuntu manual and made a successfull grub-install.
But on reboot the debian installer and UNetBootin bootloader displayed instead.
Does the Backtrack kernel get replaced when creating the pendrive install?
the reason I use Live USB is because of no CD/DVD player.
Not that I'm aware of. I think a usb install with Unetbootin causes come confusion for grub. Once you are able to boot into Backtrack again from hard drive, try running:
and reboot.Code:grub-install /dev/sda && update-grub

"Why is it drug addicts and computer afficionados are both called users? "
I do run
grub-install gives no error but after that, the following comes outCode:grub-install --root-directory=/media/7567464567-57547-57567-567-xxx /dev/sda && update-grub
Code:/usr/sbin/grub-probe: error: cannot find a device for / (is /dev mounted?)
Code:grub-install /dev/sda --recheck && update-grub
"Why is it drug addicts and computer afficionados are both called users? "
Humm i had a similar prob with the live CD can you open your bios and set your HDD to boot 1st. (do you get a blinking cursor in the top right ?)

MORE than 2,500 people put on their running shoes for the Mersey Tunnel 10K.
Among the 2,800 taking part in Sunday's event were local and regional runners; those in fancy dress running for charity; and runners who had travelled from across the country.
Overseas runners from Malaysia and Colorado, America, also took part.
The event's most senior competitor on the day was 91-year-old Eddie Mountford, from Moreton, who completed the course in one hour 33 minutes.
Race Director Alan Rothwell said: "The Tunnel 10K continues to be a favourite race for many runners, so we have to say a big thank you to Mersey Tunnels who allow us to use the Kingsway Tunnel to host such a special and unique event.
"Special mention must also go to our volunteers and marshalls who play such a vital role on race day. See you in 2015 for our 10th anniversary event."
Wirral council's sports development team and golf professionals attended the event, hosting golf taster sessions to promote The Open Championship, which returns to Hoylake's Royal Liverpool Golf Club in July.
Cllr Pat Hackett, Wirral Council Cabinet Member for the Economy, said: "We are delighted to work with BTR who regularly choose Wirral as the backdrop for some of its key annual events.
"New Brighton continues to evolve and develop as a key destination for visitors, so we were thrilled to welcome 2,800 runners to the borough, as well as a large number of spectators, to enjoy our coast and showcase what we have to offer."
Next up in BTR's race portfolio is the Tour Of Merseyside, a six-race challenge over seven days, covering 52 miles. The event features races in Southport, Thurstaston, Walton, Hale Village, Knowsley and New Brighton.

BLUEBIRDS boss Mark Collier is pleased to have linked back up with Swindon Town defender Aaron Oakley.
After briefly returning to the County Ground, the 19-year-old centre-back is back with Town for another month-long loan period – his third of the season so far.
Oakley slotted straight back in to the heart of the defence at Bedford and Collier says he will be taking an interest in the defender's future at Swindon, with his current deal set to expire at the end of the season.
"He balances off the centre-backs really. We've got lots of left-footed centre-backs but obviously, him being a right-footer helps us no end really," said Collier.
"Bryan Smith sat in there and did a job there for a couple of games but it's not Bryan's preferred position, so it's good to get Aaron back.
"I think he's going to play six games in the month he's here and hopefully, they'll be good games.
"I did speak to him after he'd gone back and I did say to him to not just go and train at Swindon Town – he needs to keep playing football matches.
"I don't know what the situation is with his contract – I don't know if he'll get a new one at Swindon or he'll be released – but there are always scouts looking at people at this level.
"He can only do himself favours by playing every week. He's put in a confident performance last weekend and long may that continue."
Oakley's latest loan spell was funded by a donation of around £400 from the Chippenham Town Supporters' Club and director Richard Chappell.

Evolution Hoax
Abu Abdullah (Imam Ja'far al-Sadiq [a.s]) reports: ""O Hesham, would you tell us about your conversation with Amribn Obeid and the question you asked him?
Upon this request Hesham explained what he talked with Amribn Obeid and said: "Did Allah create the heart so that it could overcome the doubts of other organs in the body? (Amribn Obeid) said: 'Yes'. Hesham said: the Almighty Creator did not leave the organs of your body without any guide and He appointed them a leader to make the truth evident and bring forth the absolute conviction regarding doubtful matters. Would He Who has done this leave humans in perplexity, confusion and controversy? Would He not appoint them a leader for them to refer to when He assigns a leader for your organs so that they are free of their doubts and confusions?
Abu Abdullah (Imam Ja'far al-Sadiq [a.s]) smiled and said: 'O Hesham! Who taught you these? I said: "I learned these from you and brought them together.' Imam said: 'I swear by Allah that these are the truths in the pages of Abraham and Moses." (Usul al-Kafi, YakubibnIshaq al-Kulayni, vol.1, page 229)

Seagate NAS 4-Bay with Marvell ARMADA 370 Reviewby Ganesh T S on 7/24/2014 8:30 AM EST
19 Comments
Back to Article
Arbie - Thursday, July 24, 2014 - linkDidn't see thermals mentioned. Seagate goes for record-setting internal temps by totally sealing their drives in plastic. I have several GoFlex multi-TB units that, out of the box, exceed their max rated limits! It seems impossible that a company that can build a modern hard drive can't produce a ventilated plastic box to house it. At least I thought it was impossible, but technology advances....
Yeah I know these are different animals but they still say "Seagate" on them, and those incompetent packaging engineers must have moved on to some other project. Could be this one.
Ref: http://www.anandtech.com/show/3858/the-worlds-firs...
and probably many other web comments by now.
BTW the fix on the GoFlex is to rip half the cover off, and hold the remaining half on with a rubber band. Looks real nice. Reply
JeffFlanagan - Thursday, July 24, 2014 - linkI was considering getting three or four of these to replace my somewhat flaky Unraid server, but Arbie's comment makes me worry that this will be drive-destroying junk.
Ganesh, can you tell us about any thermal issues? Reply
DanNeely - Thursday, July 24, 2014 - linkThis design includes a 120mm fan. While measurements would be nice, I doubt this design has the same problem as the goflex enclosure. Reply
woggs - Thursday, July 24, 2014 - linkThe pics on page 2 show the fan but no other vent holes for air flow. Where does the air from the fan go? Are there bottom vent holes we can't see? Reply
MichaelD - Thursday, July 24, 2014 - linkThe fan pulls air through the chassis from front to back. The air enters through the spaces around the drive sleds and is pulled through/over the drives before being pushed out the perforated rear panel.
I've been looking to get a NAS device to replace the W7 box/HW RAID card setup I have running at home as a NAS. I built that box 3 years ago to replace the SOHO NAS JUNK that was for sale at that time. I.E. under $600 or so.
This box looks promising...but still, the storage format is not compatible with Windows. If the NAS itself fails, I have to wait until a replacement NAS is purchased to see if my data is there, and that worries me. Reply
MichaelD - Thursday, July 24, 2014 - linkJust saw that even though it's got two GbE ports, this device does not support Link Aggregation. A real shame. Not a deal-breaker for me but it's nit to pick. Reply
MadMan007 - Thursday, July 24, 2014 - linkIt depends on the NAS drive file system actually. There are ext4 drivers for Windows that enable read/write of ext4 volumes. I have read that people are able to pull a drive from a RAID1 and read it on a Windows machine...perhaps it depends on the NAS vendor as well though. Reply
ganeshts - Thursday, July 24, 2014 - linkThis unit's lineage is not related to the GoFlex, rather, it is from LaCie (the use of Noctua fans, for example).
I am very happy with the thermal performance. All our evaluation was done with the WD Re drives (known for not being very 'cool'), and never once did the temperatures go above 50 C in our stress tests. Reply
BMNify - Thursday, July 24, 2014 - linkseriously, how can you keep flogging the crap ARMADA 370 SoC in a NAS as a good investment, tindustrial hey are far lower spec than even a A8 in data throughput and the ports are second rate add-on's for a soc that cant cope.....
even an old 5.4" single board computer with a cheap case would be far more forgiving of data throughput, http://www.abigo4u.com/review/product/list/id/2136...
LS-576TXD 5.25" Embedded board with Intel QM77 w/6 x Giga LAN
or one of the newer 3.5" smb's would give far better return on investmant, just bung freenas on there and be far better supported. Reply
name99 - Thursday, July 24, 2014 - linkDude, just accept that different people have different desires and needs.
Personally I don't see the point of these NAS boxes --- I can (and do) create much the same thing by hooking up a bunch of external drives to an old Mac and using OSX's soft RAID. Meets my needs, may not meet yours, especially if your needs demand RAID5 or live disk replacement.
Likewise some other people's NEEDs (not desires, NEEDs) are "absolutely trivial installation", or "comes in a single box that can easily be moved, with no bits hanging out".
You're like the salesman who, asked "please show me the laptops department" starts ranting about "you don't want a laptop, you want a tablet. Here, let me show you our fine selection of tablets." Reply
MadMan007 - Thursday, July 24, 2014 - linkWhoa, you mean a motherboard that costs more than this entire NAS performs better? SHOCKING! Reply
JeffFlanagan - Thursday, July 24, 2014 - linkThanks Ganesh and others who commented on the cooling. Reply
harshw - Thursday, July 24, 2014 - linkGanesh, I can attest to the fact that LaCie's fan design on their 5Big boxes for example - isn't really good for thermals. Like I commented earlier, I had a LaCie 5Big NAS Pro consistently overheat here in California where the ambient room temps can easily rise to 80F. I replaced the 120mm Noctua with a 150mm Thermaltake and also cut out the fan grill. It worked but the LaCie RAID config was already broken and no amount of recovery would help. Reply
ganeshts - Thursday, July 24, 2014 - linkThat is disappointing to hear. I have the 5big Pro running without issues, but I have it perched on a shelf open on all four sides (basically a garage rack converted to hold stuff) where there is plenty of air-flow. One issue with the 5big box is that you have to make sure the underside is pretty clear (air intake is through that).
That said, I do have more confidence in the NAS 4-bay, as the air is being pulled in through the front side of the unit. But, then, again, the NAS 4-bay doesn't have a metal body, so some heat loss through conduction will be missed. Reply
beginner99 - Friday, July 25, 2014 - linkWith these huge RAID-Rebuild times greatly increasing the risk of a second drive failure, wouldn't it make sense to add a dedicated chip that speeds this up? This would even help during normal operation? Reply
Zan Lynx - Friday, July 25, 2014 - linkAs far as I know, no current hardware is limited by the CPU when doing RAID rebuild. It is always the amount of time that it takes to read and write so many terabytes of data.
Now maybe if the drive bays were fitted with SSDs it would be a problem. Reply
jabber - Friday, July 25, 2014 - linkFrom looking at recent tests and from my own kit at home it really looks like you need around 500MHz of ARM CPU power per 20-22MBps of data pumped down the cable. Reply
Zan Lynx - Friday, July 25, 2014 - linkMaybe the NAS builders should start using AMD Bobcat. My little home server built on a E-350 can fill a gigabit Ethernet link. Reply
wintermute000 - Sunday, July 27, 2014 - linkI agree. heck even Bill us the cost difference, what 50 more or whatever for a real cpu like a celeron Reply

Marc by Marc Jacobs Spring 2013
There was a time back in the early noughties when the rare bird you'd hope to spot perched in the front row was Sarah Jessica Parker. These days you find twenty-first-century New Yorkers like Zosia Mamet in that seat. The Girls actress has a sense of style that is worlds apart from the neurotic Carrie Bradshaw-obsessed Shoshanna Shapiro she plays in the cult TV series, and she managed to stay cool in her biker jacket and Breton stripes at the Marc by Marc Jacobs show even amidst a Jonas Brothers feeding frenzy happening the next row over. Jacobs is never one to shy away from a quirky character, and the models came down the runway layered up with button-down shirts under full-skirted dresses in a riot of mix-matched prints. Red and blue Maasai-inspired scarves were worn as obi belts or headwraps, suggesting a girl who likes her fashion with a side of wanderlust, and wooden geisha slippers were worn with chunky socks for a look that was part Kyoto, part Portlandia. The playful striped paper bag pants and loose-fitting blazers rolled up at the sleeves hinted at a silhouette of new romantic proportions and played into a bigger idea of the volume we've seen this week.
Admittedly pulling this look together in the real world would be no small styling feat. Taken apart, though, there were pieces that would play an instant mood-brightening role in a young woman's wardrobe. Checkered patch-pocket skirts and slouchy high-waisted pants offered new sartorial directives that cool girls like Mamet would be wise to consider.

WOBURN, Mass., April 18, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Flexion Therapeutics, Inc. announced today the presentation of a poster titled "FX006 prolongs the residency of triamcinolone acetonide in the synovial tissues of patients with knee osteoarthritis" at Osteoarthritis Research Society International's (OARSI) 2013 World Congress on Osteoarthritis in Philadelphia. Flexion co-founder and chief medical officer, Neil Bodick, M.D., Ph.D., will discuss the findings during the poster session from 3:30 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. on Friday, April 19 and Saturday, April 20.
As previously announced, FX006, Flexion's novel intra-articular, sustained release steroid, maintained therapeutic concentrations in the knee joint significantly longer than the most commonly prescribed immediate release (IR) steroid, triamcinolone acetonide (TCA) in a Phase 2 pharmacokinetic study. At six weeks, FX006, a sustained release formulation of TCA, remained in the joint at clinically active concentrations while the IR steroid was no longer detectable. Patients treated with FX006 also showed a significantly reduced systemic exposure to the parent steroid compared to the IR formulation. FX006 was well tolerated at all doses throughout the study.
"These data validate our sustained release, intra-articular approach and their presentation at OARSI is an important event for Flexion," said Michael Clayman, M.D., co-founder and chief executive officer of Flexion. "We expect that the combination of persistent therapeutic concentrations of FX006 in the knee and very low systemic exposures will result in more effective and safer therapy for patients suffering the debilitating pain of osteoarthritis."
About FX006
FX006 is Flexion's novel, proprietary, sustained-release, intra-articular formulation of triamcinolone acetonide for the treatment of Osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee. It is designed to provide prolonged pain relief while avoiding untoward systemic effects associated with steroids as front-line therapy. In preclinical models of OA, FX006 demonstrates both superior efficacy and beneficial effects on structural progression compared with immediate release steroids. A Phase 2b dose-ranging study evaluating safety and efficacy has completed enrollment in the U.S., Canada and Australia and data are expected in the middle of 2013.
About Flexion Therapeutics
Flexion is a clinical-stage specialty pharmaceutical company developing innovative therapeutics for musculoskeletal disorders. In our efforts to provide products with superior efficacy and safety, we are merging novel pharmacology with local, sustained delivery of drug to the site of disease an approach that aims to ensure lasting therapeutic effect and systemic safety. We are currently advancing a portfolio of best-in-class drug candidates that have the potential to treat mild, moderate and severe forms of osteoarthritis. Top-line data for FX005, an intra-articular sustained release p38 MAP kinase inhibitor and our lead compound, showed prolonged improvement in joint pain and function throughout the 12-week duration of the Phase 2 study. FX006, an intra-articular sustained release steroid, is currently being evaluated in a Phase 2b dose-ranging study with data expected in the middle of 2013. FX007, an intra-articular sustained release TrkA inhibitor, is being developed to safely address the intractable pain associated with end-stage osteoarthritis.

A woman retrieving a racquetball at Northside Park in Gainesville on Thursday night was cut in the arm and thigh in an attempted sexual battery, Gainesville Police Department Lt. Jorge Campos said.
The incident occurred about 7:30 p.m. in the park at 5701 NW 34th Blvd., according to GPD.
A ball was hit over the wall, and when the woman went to get it a man knocked her to the ground and attempted to remove her pants, Campos said.
She was cut in the upper arm and thigh before a passing car scared the man off, police said.
The extent of her injuries was not available.
The attacker was described as a 30- to 35-year-old, 5-foot-10 to 5-foot-11 black man with his hair in one- to two-inch braids or twists, according to GPD.
The assailant was said to be clean-shaven with a mole on the right of his nose, discoloration on the left side of his face and bushy eyebrows. The man had a tattoo on his left forearm.
He had a deep voice.
At the time of the attack, police say he was wearing an orange football-type jersey with the number "01" on the front and a design on the back, baggy black pants, black and silver Nike shoes and a black hat. He was carrying a flashlight, police said.

BurdaStyle 12/2012 #110
Added Dec 7, 2012
by cathytxtwfr
Ouidah, Benin
I found a copy of the French BurdaStyle, but since I've never sewed from French patterns so I decided to start with an easy sleeveless dress. I also sewed this from some incorrectly cut out pieces from a previous project, so I was happy I didn't completely waste my fabric.
I omitted the lining (too hot here in benin) but decided to make my own bias tape using the pin in iron board method, and it worked perfectly. I liked subtly connecting the top to the dress with the bias tape.
I wrote more about it in my sewing journal: http://cathywu.com/journal/treadling/2012/12/07/burdastyle-122012-dress-110/

Wow! You DO have the greatest fabrics! And why on earth would anyone make a "LBD" when they could make it with . . . The fabric you made it in, for example. You look stunning in this. I love love love your dress – and your smile is quite lovely too! I am really surprised to see so few people have made this pattern… from the technical drawings it looks like one of the most classic and universally flattering style of dress… Huh… I would say I would check it myself but I really have a dozen UFOs I swore I would finish at least 3 or 4 before I can start another…

Portland'S Giles Scott will be carrying the Olympic flame this morning.
The Skandia Team GBR performance squad Finn sailor will be among the inspirational torchbearers taking part in Day 56 of the relay route.
He will be carrying the flame at 9.30am through Weymouth.
The relay will begin at Portland Bill at 7.05am, and travel through Weston, Easton and Fortuneswell before moving across the causeway in convoy mode and into Weymouth.
The relay will remain in Weymouth for more than an hour before moving through Preston, Osmington and on to Purbeck and east Dorset.
Scott is the latest British Sailing talent to be celebrated with the London 2012 Olympic Torch Relay.
Triple Olympic sailing gold medallist Ben Ainslie was the very first torchbearer on May 19, from Lands End.
Last Friday, 1964 Olympic silver medallist Keith Musto joined the relay in Colchester.
Yesterday, Portland's Skandia Team GBR performance squad sailor Katrina Hughes carried the flame into the Weymouth and Portland National Sailing Academy before handing over to double Olympic Gold medallist Rodney Pattison who took the flame by boat towards Weymouth Beach.
Quadriplegic sailor Geoff Holt will also join today's relay in Swanage.
On Sunday, Paralympic GB sailor Alexandra Rickham, who races in the Skud-18 class with Portland's Niki Birrell, will carry the flame through Bridgemary, Hampshire.

The Tax Clinic at the Washington and Lee University School of Law has been awarded a matching grant from the Internal Revenue Service's Low-Income Taxpayer Clinic program (LITC). This is the third straight year that the Tax Clinic has received federal dollars to support its efforts.
The grant of $49,734 will fund the clinic for the 2010 calendar year, helping to offset a substantial portion of clinic's operating costs.
Students in the Tax Clinic, which began operations in spring 2008, provide free legal representation to low-income taxpayers in resolving their controversies with the Internal Revenue Service. Students also present educational outreach to individuals who speak English as a second language on their rights and responsibilities as U.S. taxpayers.
"The continued support of the LITC program is a great vote of confidence for our work," said Michelle Drumbl, assistant clinical professor of law and director of the Tax Clinic. "We are seeing an increasing number of taxpayers who have fallen upon hard economic times and need a voice to advocate for them before the IRS."
At least 90% of the clients represented by the clinic are "low-income", meaning their incomes do not exceed 250% of the Federal Poverty Guidelines published annually by the Department of Health and Human Services. Working with the University's English for Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL) program and bilingual student volunteers, the Clinic provides assistance as necessary in Spanish.
The Clinic's service area includes much of the Shenandoah Valley region of Virginia, including the cities of Lexington, Roanoke, Harrisonburg, Staunton, Charlottesville, and Lynchburg. Visit the tax clinic website, law.wlu.edu/taxclinic, for a complete listing of areas served and client qualifications.
The IRS Low Income Taxpayer (LITC) grant program is administered by the Office of the Taxpayer Advocate, which operates independently of any other IRS office and reports directly to Congress through the National Taxpayer Advocate. Likewise, clinics funded by the grant program remain completely independent of and are not associated with the federal government. The LITC grant program was created as part of the Internal Revenue Service Restructuring and Reform Act of 1998.

There's always a time and place for beauty products that aren't too dramatic, but can be carried over into your evening look. I think that's what Bobbi Brown had in mind when she created the Uber Basics Collection.
"Our most flattering colors. Ever. It's makeup, simplified." -Bobbi Brown
The collection was inspired by Bobbi's seventh book, Pretty Powerful Beauty Stories. She wanted to give every woman, no matter what their skin tone is, essential colors. And these are shades for every woman. Below you'll see blush in Pink Rose, Sparkle Eyeshadow in Black Chocolate, Rich Lip Color in Uber Suede and Uber Beige. I loooooove them! Make sure you check out the Sheer Finish Powder too. They've added three different shades: Soft Honey, Golden Brown, and Warm Chestnut.
Check out the Bobbi Brown tutorial below for the the Pretty Powerful day look.

Earlier this month, I celebrated a birthday and turned the big 25. I know the older crowd is smirking and saying that's still young ... what does she know? To me, this age is a milestone.
During the last couple weeks, I've reflected back on the last few years of my life. It's fun to compare my adult life today to the day when it started at age 18. Of course, so much has changed.
When I was 18, I used to sit and create big life dreams of where I would be and what I wanted in my future. Looking back, it wasn't always absolutely clear what I would be doing, but it was always crystal clear what I wouldn't be doing.
As a kid who hadn't yet dipped a toe into the real world, it was easy to say what I wouldn't be doing when I hadn't even "lived life."
I still have my list of things I said I wouldn't be doing and guess what ... I'm doing all of them, and by golly, I'm happier than ever. Just for giggles, I'd like to share a few of those list items.
• I said I'd never move back in with my parents after college.
By the end of my college career, I needed time to recover inside the safe walls of my parents' home. College life had taken its toll on me, and letting my mom do my laundry and cook dinner for me again was a gift from heaven. Lots of kids say they will never live with their parents after they move away to college, but it's been a great experience for me. It's allowed me to save money and get my feet on the ground with this real world stuff, as my wise dad is just a floor away from when I need an answer to that sticky question about medical insurance or new car payments. I've also gotten to reconnect with my mom, who is a best friend, and have witnessed my little sisters get their first jobs, first cars and diplomas from high school.
• I said I would never work in the newspaper business.
During college, I was filled with talk about how the newspaper business was dying; how reporters worked long hours with little pay; and the job was listed as most stressful in the United States. Ironically, just days after I got my hands on my college diploma, I accepted a reporter position at a newspaper. I guess, desperate calls called for desperate measures, but over the last few years, I've surprised myself with the love of this career. It is stressful at times, but every stressful second is completely worth it when I get that meaningful compliment or see that man reading my work. This career has helped me grow as a person, learn things I never thought I would and meet an abundance of interesting people. And just for the record, news will always be here, so I truly believe there will always be a need for journalists.
• I said I'd never live in a small town.
I graduated high school in a small town, and when I left, I thought I was kissing small town life goodbye. I had plans to move to Chicago, but of course, those fell through. I'm not really sure what I had against small towns. I think I created this romantic version of city life, which I eventually figured out wasn't so romantic. Princeton is a small town, but I love my life here. The people are accepting, and there is growth here. I love to hop the train and visit Chicago, but I'm always so happy to return home to quite, quaint little Princeton.
• I said I would never fall for a farmer.
More than once growing up, I was told I should marry a farmer. My response was always, "Are you crazy?" There was no way I'd ever find common interests with a countryman. However, real life slapped me in the face when I met my current farmer sweetheart. I feel as if I've never shared so much in common with anyone else. Everything from books, music, food and travel — we share the same tastes. We only have a few differences, but that's what makes our relationship interesting.
• I said I'd never feel or act old.
I know the older crowd is laughing again, but it's for real. I thought I'd feel young forever. Today, I look at my two younger sisters dance around, stay up late and do spontaneous things with friends. My best friend from Michigan recently visited, and we talked up our weekend and said we were going to do this and that and stay up late. In reality, we went to bed early and watched movies at home on a Saturday night. So out of character for us. I think we're getting old or something.
The theme for this column I want everyone to think about, especially the younger crowd, is never say never in life. Although you may think you're never going to do this or that, just you wait and see. Within years, your whole perspective on life will do a complete spin and you'll be left asking yourself, "What happened?"

HOUSTON - A pregnant woman helps police take down two teens accused of breaking into her house, investigators say.
Jessica Munguia, four months pregnant and fresh off of bed rest, said she caught the thieves inside her southwest Houston home when she stopped to grab some diapers.
"I just pulled into my house and walked into somebody breaking into my house," said Munguia.
Munguia said she surprised the pair and came to face-to-face with them as they were coming out of her bedroom. The mother said they trashed it after breaking in through a back window in her son's bedroom.
"When I turned around, they were right there and they smiled at me. The one smiled at me. I couldn't believe it," said Munguia. "He had braces and he looked like a little kid. He looked like a baby, and so I was like, 'Get out of my house. Leave. Just stop what you're doing, get out.'"
The teens didn't leave empty-handed. According to Munguia, her jewelry, including her engagement ring, a DVD player, and her husband's cologne are all missing. She said one of the thieves had her husband's tennis shoes in his hands, but was so startled he dropped them.
Munguia said the teens took off running, and she followed closely behind. The pregnant woman said she jumped in her car, pressed the OnStar button, and chased the burglars down the street with her two young boys in the backseat.
Munguia lost the teenagers when they jumped a fence. However, police were able to track the boys down a few blocks away and arrested them after the mother positively identified them as the suspects.
"They are morons. They are complete morons. It was probably a foolish decision on my part because that could have went a hundred different ways. I mean, I'm four months pregnant; they could have hurt me," she said.
Still, the wife and mother turned crime fighter said she has no regrets.
Munguia said police are supposed to return the stolen items they recovered tomorrow.
A charge of burglary is pending against 18-year-old Usvaldo Solis.

Alumnus helps develop oven housings for Mars sample analysis
Dave Long's cheers were mixed with pride as the 2006 grad watched Curiosity land on Mars. On board the rover, as part of its sampling and analysis equipment, are the oven housings developed by Long's team at Technology Assessment & Transfer Inc.
The Physics major is lead engineer for ceramic stereolithography or CSL in the Ceramic Microdevices Group at Annapolis-based TA&T, which NASA-Goddard Space Flight Center approached in 2008 with a design for Sample Analysis on Mars (SAM) oven housings after other companies said the design would not work.
Long's group worked with NASA to make prototypes for testing at Goddard, and eventually to make the units for the actual flight to Mars.
"I work with a great team, and we had a lot of fun being a part of something that could change the way we view our universe," said Long, who has been with the company since graduation. "To be honest, it was almost as cool that Jon Stewart made fun of the high tech ovens ('why do they need pizza on Mars?') on 'The Daily Show' a couple of days after the landing."
The design, Long said, includes 52 closely-spaced holes in two rings around a chamber which allow heating elements to be woven through that heat the chamber up to 1,100 degrees Celsius (2,012 degrees Fahrenheit) in about 10 minutes. To make the prototypes and actual units, Long's team used CSL, which makes it possible to build complex, monolithic structures that could not be produced by more standard methods, such as green machining or ceramic injection molding.
Long, whose dad is McDaniel Biology Professor Emeritus Bill Long, couldn't be happier with his career choice.
"The opportunity to work on cutting-edge technology is tremendous, and the variety of work presents so many challenges," said the former Green Terror soccer player. "My group has done research and development in all kinds of areas, from the SAM ovens for Curiosity to surgical instruments, satellite electronics cooling, aircraft turbine engines and hybrid electric vehicles."
He credits his unconventional capstone project at McDaniel – and professors Jeff Marx, Apollo Mian and Bill Pagonis – with helping him land the job at TA&T. As a part of the interview process, Long presented his capstone and paper to senior engineers at the company.
"I'd say that the flexibility my professors and the college gave me to work on a ping-pong-ball cannon, which isn't really an orthodox capstone, ended up setting me apart from the standard type of work that the TA&T engineers would normally see presented."

The 1st time I went to CR solo, I made arraignments with budget and a tico rental. neither showed up. Of course the flight was late and by the time I got my board, the (old) airport was pert near closed. Nobody but me and 2 hooligan looking guys. One asked me if I needed a rental. I said yes and he picked up my bag and started walking around back. I was following with my board on one arm, and a knife behind my back. I was wired for action, thinking I had fugged up royally. He kept looking at me then finally turn and said, "Tranquilo!" Yeah I gotcher tranquilo. But he had a 4x4 and took my credit card, a piece of paper, carbon paper and a spoon. Did it up properly. It was 1am as I was going down the mountain, around a hairpin curve when the dang steering wheel locked. GOOD TIMES.
Lefts at Cinnamon Bay? It was breaking on the right side of the cay when looking at it from the beach? I have never seen that, any pictures? Are you sure it wasnt Trunk Bay? I must have a different relationship with my wife but she would never let me leave the board behind a bush even with my son screaming. We would have figured it out somehow. I can't even imagine a scenario where she would be pressuring me to get in the car and leave the board unless of course there was a tidal wave bearing down on us and we needed to get out of there fast or die.
funny story... but there is no way on earth i would have left the board. i have built roof racks from things i found in the jungle/on the beach.
anyhow, if you really cared about getting waves you wouldn't live in annapolis
live aloha, this rant is not very "aloha".
Back on topic: always bring soft racks plus bungees/rope in case the rack hooks don't fit in the car door channels. Or learn the Macgyver skills someone else mentioned about building racks out of stuff they found in the jungle and on the beach.
throw a pair of soft racks in your board bag, dummy

One of Fortune's "100 Best Companies"
Text Size
Fortune has included Goldman Sachs as one of its "100 Best Companies to Work For" every year since the rankings first came out in 1998—a track record matched by only twelve other organizations. For 2010, we ranked sixth among companies that have more than 10,000 employees, and twenty-third overall.
"This is an incredible achievement given the challenging environment we have faced over the past year," said Edith Cooper, global head of Human Capital Management. "It is the perseverance and dedication of our people that make Goldman Sachs a great place to work."
Among other achievements, the award recognizes the work of our 10,000 Small Businesses and 10,000 Women programs, which encourage collaboration between Goldman Sachs professionals, entrepreneurs and local universities. It also recognizes our Americas Diversity Week, where more than 70 events were organized.
To create the "100 Best Companies to Work For" ranking, Fortune partners with the Great Place to Work Institute, which each year conducts a comprehensive employee survey of corporate America. Three hundred and eleven businesses participated in this year's survey. Each company's score was based on the opinions of employees (two thirds weighting) on topics related to management's credibility, job satisfaction, and camaraderie, and the Institute's evaluation of a company's programs, policies, practices, and culture (one third weighting).
WATCH THE VIDEO on CNNMoney.com: Edith Cooper, global head of Human Capital Management, speaks with Poppy Harlow of CNN Money regarding Goldman Sachs' #23 ranking in Fortune Magazine's "100 Best Companies" results.

Topic: H1N1
Got diagnosed today. We went to Disney World and all came home with it. If there is a bright side, we weren't sick there, just on the way home. Overall, it is not the sickest I have been, but the coughing is miserable. My daughter has decided that this is not at all fancy (and being fancy is the most important thing to her!).

blackmagnum - Tuesday, February 19, 2013 - linkI bet their latest batch of smartphones will be best sellers. They have the best price/performance/design ratio in my opinion (fanboy). Reply
peevee - Tuesday, February 19, 2013 - linkPrice/performance is the best in Nexus 4, by far. Try to find other 4 core/1.5GHz/2GB mem 16 GB flash unlocked for $350. Not to mention you can use this unlocked phone on T-Mobile value plans which (for 3 phones) cost 2-3 times less than competing AT&T and Verizon smartphone plans.
And Nexus is the only Android phone which will be updated until it can run new versions and you know it. The HTC One is not even out yet and already comes with 8 months old version of Android (4.1) and will be updated at best once, with delay of at least half a year behind Android release (or more), while Nexus phones already run 4.2.1 and start to upgrade to 4.2.2.

dishayu - Tuesday, February 19, 2013 - linkHTC has pumped out a couple of amazing phones in the past year (One X(+) and One S) with all the right ingredients but they failed in front of the samsung marketing machine.
Galaxy s4 is a couple of months away. I hope HTC can gain traction with the HTC One and be the leader for this round. And the phone has absolutely no -ve points from where i'm looking (4.7 inches is still too big for me, so a "smaller" screen is not a -ve mark). And quite frankly, I'm starting to get snnoyed by Samsung's lack of innovation in the design department. Reply
nitram_tpr - Tuesday, February 19, 2013 - linkThe pictures are fairly blurry, not using a decent camera then? Reply
peevee - Tuesday, February 19, 2013 - link"The Ultra Pixel Camera: 300% more light than traditional sensors. " is a total BS. It is still 1/3" sensor getting as much light as any other 1/3" sensor would behind the same lens. Of course f/2.0 lens is not bad at all, but not that different from what other top phones offer, not even close to Nokia 808.
4mpix is all that is needed though (and can be resolved on a sensor this small due to diffraction), and I applaud them for not participating in the fools' megapixel race. Low megapixel count has real advantages of fast transfers, fast processing and low power consumption. Smaller pixels on 8-13 mpix cameras with 1/3" sensors don't carry any useful information, just noise and blur. Reply

Home > Health & Wellness > Health Library > Sickle Cell Disease: Dactylitis (Hand-Foot Syndrome)
Dactylitis is severe pain that affects the bones of the
hands, the feet, or both. It's often the first symptom of
sickle cell disease in babies.
Dactylitis is caused by blocked blood
circulation. Symptoms include extreme pain and tenderness, usually with
swelling. An episode may last 1 to 4 weeks.
Your child's doctor will likely suggest pain relievers and ask you to make sure your child is getting plenty of fluids. Although it is painful, dactylitis does not damage your child's body.

Hello friends,
Sorry to start another thermometer thread, but I did do a search of the boards and found most of the info that was out there was a few years old, so I am hoping to get a more current/up to date discussion going.
I need a remote probe thermometer, one that will allow me monitor the temps of the meat, in addition to the grill temps.
What are you all using?
Can't believe I have waiting this long to invest in one of these! Will be nice to sit in the house and get a warning when I need to attend to the smoker, rather than run out there every 15 minutes!
Thank you!

Cruz Coastal Flyer — By Tim Clark
— July 2002
Delayed Gratification
|Boat test or sneak preview? A partially commissioned cruiser looks promising.
A dozen years ago you conceivably could have glimpsed the Santa Cruz Coastal Flyer across a marina and assumed she was a refurbished classic from a bygone age. Nowadays, retrograde styling is a strong contemporary trend, and when you come across a boat like this 40-footer, you automatically begin to wonder what sort of nifty modern technological elements contradict her appearance. So naturally we at PMY were intrigued with this boat from the moment we laid eyes on Hull No. 1 last year in Fort Lauderdale. But after talks with Santa Cruz's general manager Lance Brown in anticipation of a test, we decided to hold off until the second boat was completed. Brown expected this boat to weigh significantly less than the prototype--displacing roughly 17,000 pounds as opposed to about 20,000--and we agreed that it made sense to wait patiently until we could test a boat whose performance would more closely reflect the production model.
Yet after more than five months of virtuous deferral, I still managed to jump the gun. Brown and I agreed to rendezvous at the late-April Pacific Powerboat Expo in Oakland, California, where Hull No. 2, hot off the production line, would be on display. Following the boat show I would join Brown and the Coastal Flyer's owners for a run from Oakland to Santa Cruz--past Alcatraz, under the Golden Gate Bridge, and then south about 60 miles along some of the prettiest coastline in North America. It was an attractive offer, so attractive that even though I knew Santa Cruz was working against the clock to be ready for the show, I discounted the chance that the boat wouldn't be fully commissioned. I was wrong.
Even smaller boats contain dozens of major and minor systems in need of troubleshooting, calibration, and adjustment once they leave the production floor. Santa Cruz simply hadn't had time for all this before the Oakland show. As a result, on the morning of our departure, we had trouble getting the microprocessor-controlled joystick steering system online until a faulty connection was found. Then I discovered that the tachometer had not yet been calibrated, so the sea trial we had planned for San Francisco Bay had to wait until our arrival at Santa Cruz, where a Yanmar tech would be waiting. Along our route I learned that when pressurized, the freshwater system leaked in several places and that the shaft opening in the bulkhead between the engine compartment and the jet drive had yet to be sound-insulated, so noise was presumably at a higher level than otherwise would be the case.
These and other particulars put me in a rather awkward position--it's impossible to come to conclusive opinions aboard a boat that's not finished. So unfortunately what follows is more of a preview than a boat test.
When you leave out the modern components, her character is strongly reminiscent of classic launches from the 1930's and 40's. Santa Cruz's attention to detail in this regard displays a sincere enthusiast's approach to production building. The styling and finish of the mahogany woodwork and the design and quality of nearly every fitting are consistently faithful to a single clear motif. Stainless steel nav light housings, though automotive in origin, are produced from original 1940's tooling. Grabrails throughout the boat are of the same elegant period design. Even the fluted upholstering of the seat backs is evocative of the right era. The machined stainless steel instrument panels at the wheel, complete with toggle switches custom-made from solid ball bearings, are thoroughly convincing. Were it not for the jarring contrast of up-to-the-minute Raymarine navigational electronics, the helm would pass as an impeccable restoration.
Designer Dave Gerr's lines unite these thematic details. Tumblehome adds classic elegance astern, and reverse sheer puts forcefulness and volume forward. The boat is beamiest toward the bow, giving the below-decks interior surprisingly spacious proportions. A double berth tapering toward the forepeak is to starboard of a small settee that converts to a single berth--a setup useful for a couple cruising with a child. The port-side galley includes a five-cubic-foot Sub-Zero refrigerator/freezer behind a mahogany door, a small microwave oven hidden in an elegantly arched cabinet, and an attractive Broadwater ship's stove with two LPG burners and oven. The stainless steel sink is surrounded by a granite countertop cored with honeycomb aluminum--all the richness of polished stone without the weight. The head includes a Tecma electric MSD and integral shower. Stowage is more than adequate for weekend cruises.
Topsides the Coastal Flyer offers a variety of areas to enjoy the ride. Most novel is the mahogany trimmed bow seat, where two can brave the elements in style. The cockpit is open overhead but partially sheltered from the wind by the bridge-deck enclosure, and it's large enough for a set of folding furniture in addition to the existing forward-facing seating split by the transom door. Its wet bar includes another five-cubic-foot Sub-Zero refrigerator/freezer and dedicated bottle stowage behind raised-panel mahogany cabinetry.

This triumphant book picks up where Obama left off after proclaiming ". . . there is not a liberal America and a conservative America; there is the United States of America. There is not a black America and white American and Latino America and Asian America; there's the United States of America . . . We are one people, all of us pledging allegiance to the Stars and Stripes, all of us defending the United States of America." Through her book, filled with references to the Baby Boomers and the Greatest Generation, Noonan calls us to rise to our becomes the own best version of our own generation. Now. Today. As Americans all.
