And then there is the damage the candidates inflict upon themselves by fawning over the interest group sponsoring the event. The smartest thing I ever heard anyone say at one of these travesties was William Bennett's instruction to the audience at the Christian Coalition cattle show in 1995. Bennett told the faithful that "if these candidates don't tell you something that makes you feel uncomfortable or forces you to think, if they demand nothing from you, then you should give them nothing."
Every one of the Republicans failed Bennett's test that day, so it isn't only Democrats who are spineless wimps when it comes to these nonevents. Furthermore, this is not the worst bunch of Dems I've ever seen. They are not dwarfs (well, some of them aren't). But they are not quite giants either. Take the case of Senator Joe Lieberman, the only candidate who passed the Bennett test at the Children's Defense Fund. He celebrated the American victory in Iraq, a war he has favored from the start, and he celebrated the success of Bill Clinton's welfare reform. These are, believe it or not, controversial positions with the Democratic Party's base, but Lieberman is so decent and solid a man that the apostasy provoked only a few discomforted rustlings in the crowd. (Lieberman was prepared, I am told, to endorse school vouchers if he'd been asked, which would have rocked the joint, but he wasn't asked.)
It might be argued that former Vermont Governor Howard Dean also passed the Bennett test, but he only did so under duress. He was asked about a quote from 1996, in which he heaped slag upon the Children's Defense Fund's founder, Marian Wright Edelman, for being one of those "liberals" who wrongly opposed the welfare-reform bill. He retracted the slag Edelman, a study in demure imperiousness, was seated in the front row but not the sentiment. He said he embraced welfare reform in Vermont and implied that he did it better than Clinton. But then, to hear Dean speak, he did just about everything better in Vermont a rhetorical tic that is beginning to get on the nerves of his fellow candidates.
In fact, the only other significant event of the evening was a glance that passed between Senators John Kerry and John Edwards when Dean again appropriated the late Senator Paul Wellstone's line "I represent the Democratic wing of the Democratic Party." It was a withering glance, and Governor Dean might well be advised, Do not find yourself in a dark alley with either of these men. No doubt, the resentment toward Dean is a consequence of his banty-rooster self-regard, but it is also a result of Dean's success in these early joint appearances. The possibility of Dean's decapitation by either Kerry or Edwards in some future debate is one reason to stay tuned.
The event also was notable for being Florida Senator Bob Graham's first appearance with the rest of the gang. Graham brings two strong qualities to the race. He is a former Governor and therefore, of necessity, a decision maker and plain-speaker and he stands an excellent chance of winning his home state, which is mythic among Democrats after the 2000 debacle. But Graham didn't offend anyone; I can't remember a thing he said. (Oh, yes: he reminded the audience that he voted against the war; this drew applause.)
It is no small irony that George W. Bush has liberated both the Iraqis and the Democrats. His ridiculous federal budget has removed a significant, Clintonian restraint on the party: it no longer has to be fiscally responsible. Candidates can promise the moon. Dick Gephardt can say his universal health coverage plan will "only" cost $100 billion a year. Kerry can point out that the Administration is planning new roads, schools, hospitals and schoolbooks in Iraq. "And it is time that they do the same thing here ..." But it is easier for Republicans, who are inaccurately assumed to be adults, to be fiscally irresponsible than it is for Democrats. So the candidates would do well to remember Bennett's advice: their credibility will probably rest on the promises they refuse to make, the inconvenient truths they choose to tell.

AS one of the highest-selling girl groups of all time, TLC would've likely been playing arenas on this, their first Australian tour, were it not for one tragic twist of fate — the death of the trio's feisty rapper Lisa Left Eye Lopes in 2002, thereby derailing the group's career for the better part of a decade.
Playing their second Sydney show in the more intimate confines of the Enmore Theatre, the group's two surviving members — Tionne 'T-Boz' Watkins, still sultry at 44, and Rozonda 'Chilli' Thomas, looking a decade younger than her 43 years — shone during a rapid-fire, hit-heavy set.
TLC: Girl power is 'not getting naked'
The hits were largely played in chronological order, meaning that energy levels on the night mirrored their ascendant careers as the songs got better and better. In their heyday, they were an act with a lot of great songs — early hit Baby Baby Baby, Motown ballad Red Light Special, the future-funk of Silly Ho — and a handful of stone cold classics: Creep, No Scrubs, Waterfalls.
While it's been 12 long years since Left Eye's death, fans might've been surprised at Chilli and T-Boz's unsentimental handling of their friend's absence. The video montages playing on the screen behind the pair throughout the concert, showing moments from their most iconic clips, were edited so as to only include the duo.
In fact, it wasn't until their second-last song — the forever-brilliant Waterfalls — that the pair even mentioned Left Eye by name.
Still, the concert ended on a sweet spot, as TLC sang their first new track in more than a decade, the acoustic R&B jam Meant To Be. Some 22 years after they first started, it seems there's life in TLC yet.
TLC play Melbourne's Palais Theatre on June 11, tickets through Ticketmaster, and Perth's Metro City, tickets through Ticketek.

Iowa City stabbing suspect back in Johnson County
Badding was found in his girlfriend's dorm room at Western Illinois
An 18-year-old University of Iowa student accused of stabbing two men early Sunday in Iowa City is now in the Johnson County Jail after authorities found him in his girlfriend's dorm room on the Western Illinois University campus.
Gabriel E. Badding, of Oak Park, Ill., is accused of stabbing two men in downtown Iowa City at 1:57 a.m. Sunday following a verbal altercation, according to a criminal complaint. Badding, according to police, stabbed one man several times causing serious injuries, including two wounds in the man's torso, near vital organs.
That victim's friend, who tried to intervene, suffered a deep stab wound in his right tricep, according to the criminal complaint that was made public Thursday.
Badding ran from the area, and authorities issued a Hawk Alert to UI students and staff members, alerting them to the downtown attack. Several tipsters called police after the alert and gave Badding's name as a possible suspect based on the physical description given, according to the complaint.
Over the course of the day, authorities determined that Badding had gone to Illinois, and his vehicle was found in a parking lot on the Western Illinois University campus, according to police. Western Illinois police helped by watching Badding's car, and they eventually tracked him to his girlfriend's dormitory room, according to the complaint.
Western Illinois arrested Badding on an Iowa City warrant, and they obtained a search warrant for his vehicle, where they found items apparently tied to the investigation, police reported.
Badding, who was booked into the Johnson County Jail on Wednesday afternoon, is facing charges of willful injury causing serious injury and willful injury, both felonies. He's being held in lieu of a $100,000 bond.Badding is listed as a liberal arts and sciences student at the University of Iowa. He is living in Burge Hall, according to online UI records.

Chicago Bulls new shooting guard Rip Hamilton was just starting to get into a groove for fantasy basketball owners before a foot injury cost him the last four weeks. Hamilton was looking like one of the most underrated off-season additions of the year, as he scored double-digit points in nine of his first 15 games with the team.
Earlier this month Hamilton was diagnosed with a torn plantar fascia in his left foot, but is finally ready to get back to action after the grueling foot injury. "Hannibal" is ready to put the mask back on and get into the Chicago's starting lineup. The team desperately needs someone to step up and start scoring right now with point guard Derrick Rose still out an undetermined amount of time, and Hamilton fills that niche quite well.
Rip was scoring a very respectable 13.6 points per game before his injury, so anyone desperate for a reliable scoring shooting guard should not hesitate to scoop up the veteran. He has always been one of the smoothest jump shooters in the game, so his natural scoring ability will fill an immediate void in Chi-town.
Hamilton has never been a reliable assist man or rebounder, but he can hit any shot on the floor. He certainly could do more from a defensive standpoint, but his 14-plus points a game, along with his strong field goal and free throw percentages make him worthy of a fantasy roster spot.
Hamilton may not be an everyday starter in fantasy leagues, like he was with the Detroit Pistons, but his scoring potential makes him a great flex start in daily leagues.

Vic Mensa Gets Raunchy on 'Major Payne'
When it comes to putting it down in the bedroom, Vic Mensa simply isn't playing around. That's what the rapper details on his new cut 'Major Payne,' produced by Michael Uzowuru.
Right at the top of the song, the 'Innanetape' creator spits of threesomes and sheer freakiness. "You coming home with me and my bitch / I wanna see you strip / She wants you, you want her, now kiss… Two at a time I want double the trouble / I'm taking off with the humble to hubble," he rhymes over the head-nodding electronic rhythm.
Mensa even says he wants to record some of the action, and cause a little harm to a certain male hater. "Dutty whining Jamaican girl / Get the camera let's make a film / Tore them one, make it count / He's trash, Let's take him out," the Chicago native rhymes.
'Major Payne' will likely appear on his forthcoming EP, 'Street Lights.'

UC Irvine's men's basketball team made the most of its second chance Wednesday night.
The Anteaters, who missed out on an NCAA Tournament bid, defeated High Point University from North Carolina, 80-71, in the opening round of the CollegeInsider Tournament in front of 368 fans at Crawford Court on the UCI campus.
The game was held at the campus gymnasium because another event was going on at UCI's home arena, the Bren Center.
UCI (21-15) moves on to the second round Monday night on the road against Oral Roberts.
It was a significant win for UCI for a couple reasons.
The 21 wins ties for third-most in a season. The 2000-01 team won a school record 25 games.
The 1981-82 team won 23 games and this year's mark ties the 21 wins recorded by the 2001-02 team.
It was also UCI's first post season win since the Anteaters defeated UCLA, 80-74, at Pauley Pavilion in the opening round of the NIT Tournament in 1986.
"This post-season win is big for us," said UCI Coach Russell Turner. "Any opportunity to play and to add wins to the legacy these seniors are going to leave is a big opportunity.
"I knew this would be a very difficult game to win because of the emotional letdown was inevitable after letting the opportunity slip that we did on Saturday. But I give my guys a lot of credit, I've got resilient and tough competitive guys on this team. We could have found excuses to not play well because we have finals going on, but we did fight hard and dug down and made the plays you have to make in order to string wins together."
UCI was led by sophomore Will Davis II, who poured in a career-high 32 points, hitting 13 of 18 field goals. Davis also pulled down 14 rebounds, notching his fourth double-double of the season and the sixth of his career.
Chris McNealy and Daman Starring added 11 points each and Alex Young scored 10 points for UCI.
UCI led, 37-29, at halftime but High Point battled back to cut the lead to take a 53-52 lead with 9:45 left.
But the Anteaters, led by Davis II, regained control. A dunk by Davis II put UCI ahead, 76-69, with 59 seconds left to seal the win.
"I felt like I was getting some easy shots and I was in a groove tonight so I just kept going with it and my shots kept falling," Davis II said.

Is this normal? The injector said I may need continuous fillers for up to 2 years to see results. Is this correct? Thanks.

It is no exaggeration to say that ever since we received a copy of Au Revoir Simone's latest album 'Still Night, Still Light', we have had it on almost continuous play. Personally, I feel the mark of a great record is that it becomes the soundtrack to your life, and trust me, this one has not left my side and shows no intention of doing so. Still Night, Still Light (released through Moshi Moshi Records) is the third album from the Brooklyn based trio, and the band's members, Heather D'angelo, Erika Forster and Annie Hart have unquestionably pulled off a hat trick. Brilliantly executed, warm and personal; if you listen to the record with your headphones on, it's as if the girls are directing their pitch perfect and intimate harmonies solely to you. From 18th May, you will be able to get your hands on a copy and if you do so, you won't have to search further for your soundtrack to the summer. As a taster; the first single Shadows will be released on 4th May. Before they set off on their European tour, I called up Heather and found out more about the making of this album, their musical influences and styles, and why this time around, they are twittering their tours.
Good morning! Is today going to be an Au Revoir Simone day or a Heather day?
Every day is an Au Revoir Simone day. (laughs) We have band practice today, and we are doing a couple more interviews as well. We are doing a few performances already – we are starting our major headlining tour soon and will be in Europe and then America and then the cycle will continue for…. I don't know! A long time!
Amelia's Magazine obviously love this record, and judging by reviews, we are not the only ones…..
We are getting a really positive response, which makes us happy, and is very encouraging, because we as a band we really believe in this one and we finally feel that we made the record that we wanted to. The last two records had a few disappointments but with this one, we are really proud of every song on the album and we feel like we finally have an album that represents who we really are.
Tell us a little about the process of making this album…
We were really nomadic with the recording of this one, we couldn't afford to go to a real studio, so we recorded literally everywhere, we even recorded at our producers mother in-law's house (laughs). We did some studio stuff in Brooklyn, but we were never anywhere for that long. We mixed it in Sacramento and things really came together then in those two weeks. Mixing was where everything started to sound really cohesive. All these bits and pieces that we had recorded in the past month started making sense.
If I were to imagine a setting where the album was recorded, I would have imagined a dusty mountain top cabin in the Catskills!
I wish that I could say that we recorded it in a fairy cave, and we had magical tea every day! We don't have the budget for that yet! (laughs)
How do you all collaborate on the tracks? Every song seems so cohesive.
Where the album is more cohesive is the result of the girls and I touring and spending every day together for two years, when you are with the same people for two years, you become a lot more similar in style, and when you are experiencing the same things, well… we were going through the all same things emotionally and that reflects in the songs.
Your styles seem so similar – but does anyone ever say, ' let's throw in thrashing metal guitar and see what happens?'
(laughs) No, we are all really similar people, and musically, we are also all similar. Annie has a punk, wild side, and she has a side band called Uninhabitable Mansions; that is not particularly Au Revoir Simon-ey (laughs) and she knows that. Erika writes more folky music, but all of the things that we choose to bring to the table are 'Au Revoir Simone' style. But before with earlier albums we would bring everything, all different styles of music, and it kind of made it disjointed. So, for this one, we would bring in the stem of the song – sometimes it's a verse or a chorus and one will play it for the others, and we would work on it and work on it until it was perfect. It may not end up being the song that you first had in your head, but that is the fun part; seeing how it is going to grow once we all put our hands on it! Actually our favourite way of working is when we get to play for ourselves. We will riff for hours and hours and our songs come out of that.
(photograph by Imma Varandela)
Your style is described as warm and organic electronic music. It is a hard thing to pull off – making electronic music seem accessible – isn't it? Is it warm because there are three women singing, or do you have to make a conscious effort to make the audience feel like they are listening to something intimate?
I think that is the main thing that we think about when we are writing, and also a large source of our disappointment of what we have done in the past. Having the instruments that we use come off in the recording as warm and airy has been really, really difficult. ….. We would try everything; at first we would go straight into Pro Tools, which made it sound cold, and then we tried layering, and that didn't work. For this one, Tom (our producer) said 'pair it down, don't use ten keyboards, use two and we will amp it so that the one keyboard sounds huge.' That is a big lesson that we learnt on this album, how to make it even warmer, and also with three girls, it kind of makes it sound like a choir (laughs)
The harmonies are amazing, I feel like there is a French sound to your music; it reminds me of Stereolab and Air; do these bands influence you?
Oh, saying it sounds like Stereolab is the highest compliment ever! My two favourite bands are Air and Stereolab. I love French weird, electronic music, and what I love about those bands is that they never sound cold. And I love Electrelane; they were a keyboard band who also sound really warm. Too bad they are not together anymore.
Electrelane? I hadn't heard of them.
Check out the The Power Out album.
I will! The last time Amelia's Magazine met you was 2007, how have things changed since then? I take it that your schedules have got very busy. Is it all about the band now?
Yes, it's all about the band now, once we start recording everything else goes out the window – It's Au Revoir Simone every day!
I saw that you Twittered some recent festivals. What do you think of this whole social networking business?
I don't really know what to think of Twitter, it was a suggestion from a couple of people, so we twittered about the South by South West Festival that we played, but it felt like shouting into the void. You know, is anybody listening? (laughs) I don't see how it will be practical for us to do it in Europe!
Right, next stop Europe! Where is the tour taking you?
We are playing everywhere; London, Paris, Berlin, Copenhagen, Helsinki.… It's a busy schedule!
Check out Au Revoir Simone's website for further details of upcoming dates and album info. And maybe see some of you at their London show? I can't wait……

HAIFA (Oct. 12)
A second research project at the Technion, Israel Institute of Technology, by the United States Air Force, was announced here today. The new undertaking, which will be carried forward in the laboratories of the Aeronautical Engineering Department of the Technion, deals with the effects of air flow on bodies travelling faster than the speed of sound, and will be directed by 34-year-old Abraham Kogan, lecturer in aeronautics at the Technion.
Several weeks ago announcement was made that the European Office, Air Research and Development Command of the U.S. Air Force was sponsoring a project by Technion's Prof. Markus Reiner in a field related to flight through the stratosphere. The second project is also the result of a recent visit to Haifa by a delegation of American aeronautical scientists.

Selling your produce directly to the consumer involves you in a whole new series of activities. You will be dealing with the public, determining prices, displaying your products and competing directly with other sellers.
One of the advantages often mentioned about direct marketing is the elimination of the "middle man". You should realize, however, that in order to eliminate the middle man you must be willing to invest money, time and thought in performing the marketing job yourself.
Regardless of what you sell, a little thought about the best way to sell it will go a long way in helping you make the transition from producer to seller.
- Get a copy of the market rules from the market manager. Make sure that you can comply with them; also, make sure the market serves your needs.
- Does the market attract enough customers?
- Make sure the market operating days and times are compatible with your schedule.
- Find out how much it will cost you to sell at the market. Does the market advertise?
- Check with your insurance agent about adequate coverage. Farmers' markets have insurance, but individual sellers are generally not covered.
- You'll need a display stand if one is not provided. A folding table or plywood over sawhorses is fine. Perhaps a chair for slow periods.
- Creating a neatly lettered sign identifying yourself, the name of your farm, what you sell, and where you're from. This should be a permanent fixture that you display at each market visit.
- Provide some sort of shelter for your produce-both protection from hot sun and rain is a good idea. A height of seven feet will allow adequate head room
- Bring some poster board and felt tip pens (green, red, and blue are good colors) for posting prices. Print as neatly as possible.
- Provide containers or bags for the consumer. Wooden boxes are nice, but expensive. Paper bags, plastic bags or paper wrappings are ok. You may ask customers to recycle containers.
- If you sell by the pound, you'll need a scale. Local weights and measure inspectors must certify or seal all weighing devices-there may be a small charge for this. Check with the market manager and town clerk's office to be sure that you comply.
- Have a cash box. A small fishing tackle box is fine. You'll need "seed money" for making change and something to hold the bills down so they don't blow away. Keep your money out of sight!
- Cleanliness, color and spacing are most important.
- At the time of harvest, brush excess soil off your produce.
- Don't bring low quality or deformed products-they will only detract from your display.
- Space your products nicely-contrast colors and keep the display replenished. If possible, tilt your produce towards the customer.
- Keep produce off of the ground.
- Add some color to your stand or table. A bright cloth will dress up your display.
- Remove produce damaged by customers.
- Use the same selling crew at each market visit, if possible. This and your permanent sign will help build familiarity.Courtesy, knowledge, friendliness and enthusiasm are keys to successful sales.
- Know your produce-consumers are interested in how you grew it, what varieties you sell and even how to prepare it.
- Although it's sometimes difficult to be courteous to some customers, remember that arguing may send other customers away.
- Hired labor is subject to minimum wage. Check with the MA Department of Labor and Workforce Development, (617)-727-3452 to make sure that you comply.
- Serve one customer at a time. This will avoid customer confusion especially when handling money. Try to keep an idea of who should be waited on next.
If you are interested in becoming certified to accept farmers' market coupons, click here.
- It takes time to develop a profitable business. It will take several market visits to establish your reputation.
- Post your prices. Print them legibly on poster boards with a felt tip pen.
- Have some idea of what it costs you to grow and market your produce. Try to estimate your costs per pound, bushel or whatever units you sell in.
Know your competitors' prices and quality. Don't panic if the guy next to you cuts prices; think of your quality and remember that customers like steady prices.
- If you haggle about a price with one customer, others will want to as well. Also, a customer who pays full price will be very disappointed to see the next customer negotiate a discount.
- You can't please everyone. If customers complain about prices, you can often save the sale with a courteous, knowledgeable reply. You have a right to charge a price that covers your costs and provides you with some profit. If nobody complains about prices and you sell out very quickly, your prices may be unrealistically low.
- It's easier to lower prices than to raise them; don't sell yourself short!
- Customers want quality, courtesy and consistency! They are generally knowledgeable and willing to pay a reasonable price for quality and freshness.

NEW YORK (AP) — U.S. stock indexes were little changed in early trading Tuesday as investors worked through a handful of economic reports. Homebuilder stocks rose sharply after the government reported that sales of new U.S. homes rose in May to the highest level in six years.
KEEPING SCORE: The Dow Jones industrial average rose 10 points, or 0.06 percent, to 16,947 in the first hour of trading. The Standard & Poor's 500 index rose a point, or 0.1 percent, to 1,964 and the Nasdaq composite was up 14 points, or 0.3 percent, to 4,382.
DRUG BOOST: Vertex Pharmaceuticals soared $27.13, or 40 percent, to $93.77 after saying its treatment for cystic fibrosis appeared to work better than a placebo in a late-stage study. Vertex plans to seek approval for the treatment in the U.S. and Europe.
EARNINGS MISS: Drugstore chain Walgreen fell $1.75, or 2.5 percent, to $71.99 after the company reported a fiscal third-quarter profit that missed analysts' expectations.
INDICATORS: The Commerce Department said sales of new homes jumped 18.6 percent in May to an annualized rate of 504,000. That's the highest level since May 2008. In a separate report, the Conference Board said consumer confidence rose to 85.2 in June, better than the 83.5 economists had predicted.
BONDS AND COMMODITIES: Bond prices rose. The yield on the 10-year Treasury note fell to 2.61 percent from 2.63 on Monday. The price of oil was little changed at $106.16 a barrel.

Also, I don't know anyone that supports people updating kernels in linux in any sort of commercial setting for the very reason you just gave. Sounds like asking for trouble. In my experience, a kernel upgrade is taken pretty seriously, and not done without very good reason.

Josh Freeman laments key Kellen Winslow penalty
The Bucs were rolling along well in the fourth quarter, looking to score a touchdown that might have put the game away.
And then it happened, it being a costly holding call by Kellen Winslow that turned a first and 10 at the 34 into a first and 20 at the 44. LeGarrette Blount had run the ball to the 26 on the play, but that gain was negated. The drive soon fell apart and the Bucs were forced to punt. The Titans went ahead on the subsequent possession.
This was not lost on quarterback Josh Freeman, who was adamant afterward that Winslow's penalty was inexcusable.
"That has to be avoided," Freeman said. "You're in field goal range, if your guy beats you, LeGarrette is going to get back to the line of scrimmage. There is no need to tack on 10 yards. Our guys are out there playing hard. I would say it was a very inopportune time. That was a moment in the game where we really needed those points. We just keep shooting ourselves in the foot."

The global aluminium market will be more balanced this year and could shift into a supply deficit by 2013 as new projects fail to keep the pace with high-cost capacity cuts this year, Rio Tinto Alcan's chief executive said Tuesday.
"Supply will become more challenging ... the market will be near a balance this year," Jacynthe Cote said at American Metal Market's Aluminium Summit in New York.
"If you look at the supply side, year-over-year, there's been virtually zero growth given what has been added versus what has been taken out."
Many higher-cost smelters in the 40-million-tonne-per-year market have struggled to remain profitable after prices plunged almost a third in the past 12 months, to below $US2000 per tonne.
On Tuesday, aluminium hit December lows, roiled by concerns over sluggish demand and high inventories.
Three-month prices on the London Metal Exchange were at $US1960 per tonne on Tuesday, close to or below many plants' breakeven level.
With power accounting for a third of production costs, smelters with long-term steady energy contracts or cheap hydroelectric power can survive the current turmoil.
But many have divested or shut expensive production.
Rio Tinto Plc plans to sell 13 assets across six countries, including smelters and alumina refineries worth an estimated $US8 billion.
US producer Alcoa has said it is taking a hard look at the cost profile of its Point Henry smelter, having already announced the shutdown of about 500,000 tonnes of annual capacity at the start of the year.
Norsk Hydro shut its 180,000-tonne per year Kurri Kurri smelter, both in Australia.
"So we are getting closer to a near balanced market. If that trend continues, we could be in a slight deficit next year and the following year because all of the projects are being delayed now," Cote said.
Even so, while producers make cut-backs, many are replacing it with capacity in low-cost regions such as the Middle East.
Alcoa is building its Ma'aden smelter in Saudi Arabia which will open next year and produce 740,000 tonnes per year of aluminium. Many traders say they are also concerned that Chinese output remains high even with the falling prices.
And while Cote sees a long-term supply challenge, demand outlook, primarily from China, is a bright prospect.
"I can't prevent myself from being pretty positive about China," Cote said.
China's move last week to cut interest rates for the first time since the depths of the global financial crisis was another sign that the world's leading metals consumer "will continue to track their growth in a very responsible way", Cote said.
"China is still going to grow at near 8 per cent this year," she said. "The aluminum demand will probably be near 9 per cent this year ... it's growing in the single digits, but it's growing from a much larger base than 10 years ago."
Over the next 5 to 10 years, 70 per cent of aluminium supply will come from China and close to 25 per cent will come from the Middle East, she said.
Talk of a supply deficit may also surprise those who see record stockpiles of almost 5 million tonnes in LME-bonded warehouses, with another 4-5 million tonnes estimated to be in off-exchange storage, as a sign of massive oversupply.
But much of that material, which started building in 2007 as the global economy deteriorated and demand fell, is not immediately available as it is held in financing deals, traders say.
In those deals, the owner of the metal agree to keep the material in storage for months and often years at a time in return for cheap rent.
They make a profit because their metal is gaining in value due to the contango on the LME, with forward prices at a premium to cash.

Before booking a flight, it is important to look beyond the price tag to research an airline's customer service records, compensation policies, and quality ratings. This research will allow travelers to make informed decisions about travel. The 18th Annual National Airline Quality Ratings study is one place to look for information on which airlines provide the best service, which airlines are improving and which airlines are declining.
Air Tran has taken the top spot in the 18th annual national Airline Quality Ratings (AQR) study. Last year, Air Tran ranked third in the AQR. Following Air Tran in the top five of the AQR were Jet Blue, Southwest, Northwest and Frontier. As far as an overall rating for the industry, this is the worst AQR score ever, according to the AQR researchers. The second worst was for calendar year 2000.
There are similarities between 2000 and 2007, specifically:
-During both 2000 and 2007 there was talk of the United States heading into a recession
-The airlines were making money after a nonprofitable period
-Demand for air travel was strong.
The AQR is a summary of month-by-month quality ratings for the largest domestic U.S. airlines operating during 2007. Researchers Brent Bowen, professor at the University of Nebraska at Omaha (UNO) Aviation Institute/School of Public Administration, and Dean Headley, associate professor and chair of marketing at Wichita State University (WSU), used 15 elements important to consumers when judging the quality of airline service.
Air Tran gained ground in the industry and in the ratings because of superior baggage handling. As an entire industry, airlines declined in all areas of performance, Bowen said.
"I don't expect to see better airline performance in the near future. There's no incentive," Headley said. "The airlines are losing money. Fuel prices are high. They're cutting back on services. They're cutting back on people. Everything it takes to run an airline is more expensive, and the airlines want less of that expense."
Sixteen airlines were studied for the 2008 ratings report. The Airline Report Card is a unique figure that shows each airlines' individual rating since the AQR began 18 years ago. This visual aid offers invaluable historical reporting opportunities, Bowen said. It is available on-line at AQR.
Researchers at the UNO Aviation Institute and the W. Frank Barton School of Business at WSU conduct the ratings annually. The AQR, as an industry standard, provides consumers and industry watchers a means to compare quality among airlines using objective performance-based data. It is a joint research project funded as part of faculty research activities at UNO and WSU.
"With the U.S. airline industry at rock-bottom in terms of overall performance, greater accountability is necessary. It is very difficult for air travel consumers to have a collective voice," Bowen said. "The AQR.aero research team is providing new mechanisms for the everyday passenger to be heard."
Air travelers can make a difference through participating in the AQR research survey, the first of several new tools to aid the traveling public. Go to AQR and click on the 'survey' link. By participating, travelers will have access to AQR's future airline service problem reporting feature. This will also help researchers gather valuable data that may help slow the substantial decline in airline service performance that they reported this year.
The AQR scores for the largest airlines for 2007:
1. Air Tran
2. Jet Blue
3. Southwest
4. Northwest
5. Frontier
6. Continental
7. Alaska
8. United
9. American
10. Delta
11. US Airways
12. Mesa
13. SkyWest
14. Comair
15. American Eagle
16. Atlantic Southeast
Criteria included in the AQR must meet two requirements:
1. Data must be obtainable from published sources for each airline
2. Data must be important to consumers regarding airline quality.
The resulting criteria include areas such as baggage handling, customer complaints, denied boardings and on-time arrivals.
Other major industry findings in this year's research study include:
Only four of the 16 airlines improved their AQR score. They were Air Tran, American Eagle, Atlantic Southeast and Mesa. The most improved airline was Mesa; it improved in three of the four categories — denied boardings, mishandled bags and customer complaints. Its on-time performance was similar to last year.
The airline that declined the most in performance was US Airways.

|QNAP TS-259 Pro Turbo NAS Server
|Reviews - Featured Reviews: Network
|Written by Bruce Normann
|Monday, 03 May 2010
Page 10 of 13
1GB Single-Disk Test Results
The bottom line for any storage device is the combination of capacity and transfer speed. For a network attached storage server, the differences are all about the infrastructure that is placed around the basic HDD array. Since capacity is something that's easy to define and measure, the real question for any NAS product is how fast will it Read and Write data. For this reason, Benchmark Reviews measures NAS performance as the bandwidth achieved during a file transfer test. The first tests we perform utilize a single 1GB (1000 megabytes / 1,000,000,000 bytes) file in a transfer to and from the NAS.
QNAP pulls down the top five spots for 1GB Read testing, with their TS-xxx series of products. The TS-809 Pro and TS-509 Pro are built from similar hardware, and the TS-459 and TS-259 are also kin under the skin. Even without the extra Jumbo packet size, the QNAP x09 products are built for very high transfer rates. At 62.5 MB/s read speed (using EXT4) the TS-809 Pro beats everything except the QNAP TS-459 Pro with 9k Jumbo Frame enabled.
Our two-bay TS-259 Pro comes in slightly below the TS-509 when using a standard MTU of 1500, and then matches it with a transfer rate of 59.0 MB/s using 4k Jumbo Frames.
The single-drive QNAP TS-119 and Synology DS408 come in close with Jumbo Frames enabled, reaching 55.6 MB/s each. The Thecus N7700, Synology DS209, and QNAP TS-419P come in right behind the leaders, with a matching best effort of 50.0 MB/s. Although the QNAP TS-419P shares the same hardware as the TS-119, for some reason it didn't post the same performance numbers with Jumbo Frame support.
Moving on to the 1 GB write bandwidth test, our results suggest that while it may sometimes it will be faster to read files from a NAS server then it is to write files onto it, the opposite is true more often than not. The Network Attached Storage servers each have their own strengths, with some being more robust in write performance while others have more impressive read performance.
At the top of our charts the QNAP TS-809 Pro offers outstanding performance again (with EXT4), leading the crowd even more than it did in the 1GB read tests, with 76.9 MB/s of write speed. Formatted with EXT3, the TS-809 Pro offered 71.4 MB/s, followed by the QNAP TS-509 Pro which maintained 62.5 MB/s without the aid of Jumbo Frame support. Next in line, the Thecus N7700 does well in write tests and produced a best result of 62.5 MB/s, finishing out the list of top-performers.
The QNAP TS-259 leads the next grouping, with write speeds of 43.5 MB/s using a standard MTU of 1500, and 44.8 MB/s with a Jumbo Frame size of 4074. It narrowly beat the QNAP TS-459 Pro NAS, which produced 41.7 MB/s at 1500 MTU, and remained relatively unchanged with 41.8 MB/s once 9000 MTU Jumbo Frame was enabled at each end of the network connection. The Synology Disk Station DS209 narrowly beat the larger DS408, and scored a swift 43.5 MB/s write performance with Jumbo Frame enabled. A single-drive QNAP TS-119 held a steady 33.3 MB/s speed, scoring the same with and without Jumbo Frame enabled, and was tailed by the Thecus N3300 at 32.3 MB/s.
The lower-end group consists of all the remaining NAS products, with the next closest competitor being the QNAP TS-419P which scored 25.6 MB/s. The remainder of the bunch trailed far behind. Next up is 10 GB (1000 metric megabytes / 10,000,000,000 bytes) testing. Using the single-disk configuration in each NAS, and a single Gigabit connection, network throughput will be put to the test.
10GB Single-Disk Test Results
Examining 10GB basic file transfer speeds, the QNAP TS-459 Pro delivers remarkable read performance, at 65.4 MB/s with Jumbo Frame enabled. QNAP's newer models, the TS-459 Pro and TS-259 Pro lead the field on Read results, based on their Jumbo Frame capability. Both of them, plus the TS-809 Pro, and TS-509 Pro are in a dead heat utilizing the standard MTU value; all four of them are within spitting distance of 56 MB/s. QNAP's single-drive TS-119 offered the same performance once Jumbo Frame was enabled, but is reduced to 47.6 MB/s at 1500 MTU. Once again, in Read performance, QNAP takes the top five spots on the chart.
The Synology DS209 and DS408 maintain a close relationship with peak performance around 47 MB/s in normal mode, and improve to 49.3 and 48.3 MB/s read performance with Jumbo Frame enabled at both ends. At 50.3 MB/s with Jumbo Frame support, the QNAP TS-419P offers very good large file transfer speeds, but without JF support the speed slows to 39.8 MB/s. The Thecus N7700 was able to sustain 44.5 MB/s using Jumbo Frame, and 41.5 MB/s without it, which was very similar to the N3200 Pro.
In our 10GB write performance tests, the charts get shuffled a bit and the results also take on a more linear profile, instead of a series of groupings. The Thecus N7700 makes up for above-average read performance by achieving the top result for large-file writes, with 56.2/58.8 MB/s in normal and Jumbo Frame modes; for once QNAP was not the performance leader. Next in line comes the QNAP TS-809 Pro, with 54.4 MB/s using EXT3. Then the TS-509 Pro, which scores 47.0 MB/s. The QNAP TS-259 Pro slots in next with 42.9 MB/s and 44.6 MB/s with 4k Jumbo Frame enabled, rising above the Synology DS209 and the QNAP TS-459 Pro just like it did in the 1GB test. The TS-459 drops to 39.2 MB/s at 1500 MTU and 40 MB/s with Jumbo Frame enabled, just losing one position to the Synology DS209 in this test. The remainder of the products trail off in a very linear fashion, until you get to the Patriot Corza, which really struggled with both of the 10GB tests; then again this network appliance costs less than $100.
This is the end of our test results for this review, since the QNAP TS-259 does not support the RAID5 configuration we normally use to test the large format NAS products. A couple of things struck me about the results. The performance you can expect is based largely on the infrastructure that surrounds the hard drives in all these products. The processing power, amount of system DRAM, network interfaces, and configuration options all make a significant difference. This is all the more surprising since the single-disk configuration is the least demanding in terms of the resources driving it. Any disk configuration of RAID-5 or higher introduces a much greater load on the supporting subsystems of a NAS device. If you plan to deploy one of these devices in a multi-user setting, you also have to account for the simple fact that 2-3 people are probably going to hit the server at the same time, usually just before they have to leave to catch their train home at the end of the day. So, it pays to think of these systems as servers first, and disk storage arrays second.
In our next section, Benchmark Reviews looks at the surprising differences between the Windows XP and Windowa 7 environments. Be sure to take a look, especially if you would like to find out which platform performs 50% better...
NAS Comparison Products
I think the way to test this feature is to have two or more transfers occurring at the same time. With one transfer already under way, another could be started and timed, and the speed of the second transfer should be relatively unaffected by the continued activity of the first one. Your thoughts, suggestions?
If you can read french, I posted a lot about it on #lafibre.info/iperf/gs108t-nc360t-n5550-load-balancing-33mbs/new/#new but the result is this one :
Conclusion is 802.3ad is ONLY failover. ABSOLUTELY NOT load balancing.
If you want to do what I dreamed of, choose on each side the Balance-SLB (or Balance-ALB) + round robin transmit load balancing method.
Then you will have a smooth repartition of the packets on each port, but you will notice a strong down bandwidth due to the fact that "Packet order is NOT guaranteed"
Load balancing for a one file transfer on many cables is just a dream... right now...

For all the euphoria that comes with getting your playoff ticket punched, Green Bay Packers fans also know what it's like to be kicked in the gut this time of year.
True, every team that doesn't get to hoist the Vince Lombardi Trophy at season's end has to deal with the agony of defeat. But since the Packers last made a Super Bowl appearance 13 years ago, the team has experienced its share of historically heartbreaking post-season losses.
Green Bay Press-Gazette features reporter Thomas Rozwadowski apologizes for opening old wounds, but he's picked his five worst post-season memories since the 1997 season and wants Packers fans to chime in.
Among the choices:
2009, Wild card: 51-45 shootout loss to Arizona after an Aaron Rodgers fumble in overtime
2007, NFC Championship: Corey Webster intercepts Brett Favre in a 23-30 overtime loss to the New York Giants
2003, Divisional playoff: Philadelphia converts 4th and 26, wins 20-17 in overtime
2002, Wild card: Atlanta's Michael Vick hands the Packers their first home playoff loss, 27-7
1998, Wild card: It's a TD for T.O. as San Francisco wins in the final seconds of Mike Holmgren's last game as Packers coach
Were you at the game? Did your TV set survive? Are you still going to counseling while muttering Freddie Mitchell's name over and over?
Pick the most painful loss, along with reasons why, and drop Thomas a line at [email protected] by Thursday morning. Please include your name, address and phone number in case they need to contact you. The more detail in your story, the more likely they'll use it for print.

In an effort to streamline operations, to have "sharper editorial focus," and to build stronger publisher brands, Simon & Schuster has combined its six adult publishing divisions to create four.
According to a spokesperson from Simon & Schuster, the move will streamline organizational structure while helping "each group form an even stronger identity."
As a part of the move, Simon & Schuster president and CEO has named four new presidents to lead each of the units as publisher. Two senior executives will be leaving the company. The details are in a memo below from Reidy:
[Press Release]
Carolyn K. Reidy
President & Chief Executive Officer October 23, 2012
At Simon & Schuster we take pride in the excellence of our publishing, our drive to innovate and seek out new opportunities on behalf of our authors, and our ability to adapt and initiate change, building on our strengths in order to grow and maintain our edge in a competitive marketplace. In that vein, I'm writing today to let you know about a new arrangement of our publishing units, one that will lead to a sharper editorial focus for our imprints even as it takes consideration of the natural affinities among them.
Going forward, adult publishing will be distributed among four major groups. We are fortunate to have within our ranks four highly talented and experienced publishing executives whom I am delighted to promote to the newly created position of President and Publisher. Each is more than ready to take on the greater responsibility of leading his or her group going forward.
— The Atria Publishing Group will be led by Judith Curr and will expand to include Howard Books, our Christian publishing imprint. Howard joins a strong family of publishing lines that in addition to Atria includes Emily Bestler Books, Washington Square Press, Strebor Books, Beyond Words, Cash Money Content and Marble Arch Press. Jonathan Merkh, Vice President and Publisher of Howard, will now report to Judith, and the Howard editorial and marketing team will remain in place in Nashville.
— The Scribner Publishing Group, led by Susan Moldow, will expand to include Touchstone Books. Stacy Creamer, Vice President and Publisher of Touchstone, will report to Susan. Scribner's distinguished list of classic American literature and contemporary prize-winning and bestselling fiction and nonfiction will be complemented by Touchstone's popular fiction and strength in narrative and brandbased nonfiction and pop culture.
— The Simon & Schuster Publishing Group will be led by Jonathan Karp, where he and
his editorial staff will also become responsible for publishing titles under the Free Press banner. Simon & Schuster has long been known for its general interest fiction and nonfiction, and the combination of Simon & Schuster and Free Press will build upon the strengths of both imprints, particularly in the areas of history and current affairs, business books, and idea-driven bestselling nonfiction.
— The Gallery Publishing Group, under the leadership of Louise Burke and consisting of Gallery Books, Threshold Editions, Pocket Books, Pocket Star, MTV Books, and Karen Hunter Publishing, will continue to publish a wide-ranging list of general interest books, especially strong in women's fiction, popular culture and media properties. Threshold will continue to publish books of appeal to a conservative audience and Pocket Books remains the mass market partner to all of our other imprints.
Unfortunately, as a result of this reorganization, Martha Levin, Executive Vice President and Publisher of Free Press; Dominick Anfuso, Vice President and Editorial Director; and some members of the staff will be leaving the company. Martha and Dominick have both made numerous significant contributions to our success. You can read about their many
accomplishments in memos being circulated separately.
I'm also pleased to report on two further promotions in our publishing leadership.
— Our Children's Publishing Division will remain unchanged, but in recognition of the significant results his division has achieved during his time at Simon & Schuster, Jon Anderson has been promoted to President and Publisher. Since he joined us in 2009, each of our children's imprints is showing considerable profitability and all have grown significantly while strengthening their lists with new bestsellers and maximizing sales for existing authors.
— Chris Lynch has been promoted to President and Publisher of Simon & Schuster Audio. The audio business has been in the forefront of the digital transformation, and Chris and his group, including the fast-growing Pimsleur Language Program, have been our trailblazers in this transition. We have learned much from them in understanding how both our creative processes and our outreach to consumers can be transformed through digital means. The Audio division remains a valued component of our overall publishing portfolio
Our new organizational structure will enable us to build on our recent considerable successes. Bob Woodward, Sheila Bair and Arnold Schwarzenegger created headlines with their recent bestsellers. ML Stedman's first novel, The Light Between Oceans, had a long bestseller run, Kate Morton's new book is enjoying her fastest launch yet. Persistent effort led to bestsellers for Katie Davis and Kathleen Grissom. Stephen Chbosky's Perks of Being a Wallflower has been driven to sustained #1 status. The multimillion-copy Dork Diaries books by Rachel Renée Russell have grown in stature. In fact, all of our imprints have demonstrated time and again the capability to acquire and publish books that can have a major impact in the marketplace and will contribute to the overall success of Simon & Schuster.
Our group presidents will soon be communicating with you about their plans. Meanwhile, the fall publishing season is in full swing and the critical holiday sales period is just around the corner. We have many exciting books, those just published and forthcoming, along with the staff and expertise to put the finishing touches on another excellent year at Simon & Schuster.
Please join me in congratulating our new Presidents on their well-deserved promotions. I know they all look forward to working together with you to bring our great books to readers

Come out to the Hollywood Pantages Theater to see one of the most long lasting plays of all time, "Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat". The musical will be showing at the Pantages from Tuesday, June 3rd – Sunday, June 22nd. The show is approximately two hours long including intermission, and is suitable for ages 5 and older. Broadway fans staying in hotels near The Pantages Theatre should come and watch this uplifting musical!
Broadway star, Diana DeGarmo, has been in plays such as Hairspray and Godspell. She will be the narrator in Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat. Her husband, Ace Young, will be playing as Joseph. Ace Young was introduced to the public on the 5th season of American Idol and was one of the finalists in the season. This play is the result of Andrew Lloyd Webber's first collaboration. Andrew Lloyd Webber is famous for The Phantom of the Opera, Jesus Christ Superstar, and Cats. He worked with Tim Rice (The Lion King) to produce this well loved play. What makes Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat so special is that it blends together pop, country, and rock music into a wonderfully uplifting story.
Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat tells the story of Joseph, Israel's beloved son. Joseph's father makes a beautiful robe for him, which makes Joseph's brothers jealous of him. One day, the brothers remove his robe and sell him as a slave where he ends up in Egypt as a prisoner of the pharaoh. After two years, the pharaoh has a strange dream, which cannot be interpreted by anyone. Finally, he asks Joseph who has interpreted the dreams of other people. Correctly interpreting the dream, the pharaoh makes Joseph in charge of the palace and he becomes well respected. One day his brothers come to Egypt but do not recognize Joseph. Eventually, they realize that it is their younger brother that they sold into slavery so many years ago.

|The anchor was somewhat fixed yesterday. The last bolt had one smash link on it, so a quick link was added so that it is now possible to lower off without destroying your rope. Don't take the quicklink! Unfortunately the rusted bed frame hanger is still there. I would have fixed that too if I had the hardware with me.

The Minutemen mentioned it best, "Our strap could be your life". Indeed! back again in 1982 they unquestionably altered mine. I initially observed their audio tracks blasting out using the appear plan of Pier information in Newport Beach. simply about every so routinely I 'd bounce on my bicycle and pedal out to my chum Rodney's house. We 'd hold the bus and produce a pilgrimage out to Newport to absorb the scene. Pier experienced all utilizing the good stuff.
When you have actually downloaded the free software, which is completely compatible with Windows XP and Vista, along with Mac OS X, you'll need either speakers or earphones. A broadband Internet connection is likewise a must. iTunes can also be utilized peace corps volunteer with media players that work with the software, making it possible to view programming on the go.
One of the other members of the group had unquestionably been the poorest Swahili student. At the end of the 9 weeks, she might hardly state "hujambo" (hey there), yet in some way she understood exactly what the vendors were saying. So the young guy would speak, the vendors would reply, she would translate, and he would speak once again.
No matter exactly what I told her or check out to her, she simply didn't feel comfortable. She paid attention to me talk to other women about prayer and she cried due to the fact that she wanted she had that sort of relationship with God.
Not everyone can make it as a peace corps volunteer, specifically in a few of the tougher locations, such as Namibia. Ali is a Peace Corps volunteer science teacher at Uukwiyoongwe integrated school in northern Namibia. I 'd seen the images, but had not been prepared for the truth of her presence. At the time we saw there was no electrical energy and no running water and little more than sand for as far as one can see. A few months later, they did get limited electrical power, however of course no Web or phone lines. Thank God for cell phones. Water is still collected in plastic cans by donkey cart from 2 miles away.
There have been a series of short articles entitled "The power of one" that have actually revealed examples of just how much a single person can achieve. In each case, an individual with an idea of assisting others accomplished their mission despite some formidable challenges. A link to these posts is connected to this post. A quick summary of everyone's story will help you understand the power that one person peace corps job needs to help others.
Bethe chose me for a project in my chosen area. I had actually learnt through other individuals that getting a Peace Corps task can take as long as a year or 2, so I didn't feel too much of a sense of urgency. In my case, nevertheless, I got word about a month after my meeting that I had been welcomed to work as an English instructor in the Republic of Armenia! Exactly what's even more, I would be leaving the country on May 31st! I needed to round up 6 references, undergo legal and medical screenings, and turn in lots of documentation connected to passport and visa applications.

Deciding when to begin taking Social Security benefits seems like a simple decision, but it is often anything but simple. For most people the decision hinges on two factors: the math facts of your age and anticipated benefit and your own emotions about how long you want to wait. We now are aware of a third factor. Lumpy benefits!
The Social Security Administration reduces your benefit for each month the person takes benefits before his full-retirement age and increases it for each month she delays beyond full-retirement age. The amount that would be received if a person started taking benefits at full-retirement age is called the primary insurance amount.
Full retirement for most people retiring now is 66 years old. That will gradually increase to 67 years of age for those born after 1959. Discussion continues to swirl about increasing the full retirement age, especially for younger workers. How that plays out remains to be seen.
Knowing your personal break-even point (the age at which total benefits received by delaying to receive a higher monthly benefit surpasses the total benefits received by starting as early as possible and receiving lower monthly payments) would be most helpful, but almost impossible since knowing our personal life expectancy is the BIG unknown.
The break-even age is usually about age 80. The problem is that this is not a fixed number and according to William Meyer, founder of Social Security Solutions, there are "lumpy benefits," as he puts it.
According to Meyer, the worst times for a single individual to begin taking monthly benefits are the two times when most start getting benefits: at full-retirement age or at the earliest retirement age of 62.
If a beneficiary has a spouse or dependents, there are a lot of factors to consider before taking benefits. But for a single person, the primary consideration is the way the monthly increases are calculated. They are not increased at an even rate, which is why "lumps" develop.
A person receives approximately 75 percent of their primary insurance amount (depending on when they were born) if they start at age 62 and 132 percent if she delays to age 70. With an average break-even age of 80, a person has to live to be more than 80 to make it worthwhile to delay getting benefits until they are 70.
But the increases are not steady. Between age 62 and 63, monthly benefits increase 0.42 percent of the primary insurance amount per month. Between age 63 and 66, monthly benefits increase 0.56 percent of the primary insurance amount per month. And between ages 66 and 70 monthly benefits increase 0.67 percent of primary insurance amount per month.
"This uneven playing field creates opportunities to optimize benefits," Meyer says. So much for that even 8 percent per year we often read about . . .
Assuming a full-retirement age of 66, the break-even point for delaying benefits from 62 to 63 is 78 years. But the break-even point of delaying benefits from 63 to 64 actually goes down to 76 years. The break-even point then climbs if benefits are delayed until late in the 66th year, when the break-even point drops again for a few months. The break-even point then climbs again for each delay in receiving benefits until the person hits 70.
According to Meyer, in order to maximize the present value of benefits, a single person should never claim benefits between 62 years and one month and 63 years and 11 months or between 65 years and five months and 66 years and seven months.
Full retirement age of 66 years is in the middle of times when a single recipient should never take benefits, he says. Benefits should be taken at the beginning of a monthly percentage increase to maximize benefits and add a longevity hedge, Meyer says.
Please don't feel bad if you find yourself re-reading a few of those sentences. It is complicated, but it is helpful to have such an expert provide us with a little more information to help you make the best decision for your situation.

Kingston SSDNow V Series (2nd Gen) 128GB SSD Review - JMicron JMF618 Makes an Appearance!
Internals, Testing Methodology and System Setup
We noted this pad is helpful as the case does get warm during heavy use.
If you squint you can make out '618' as part of its model number.
The enclosure is padded and did a good job of performing its duties.
Testing Methods
Our tests are a good mix of synthetic and real-world benchmarks. PCMark, IOMeter, HDTach, HDTune, Yapt and our custom File Copy test round out the selection to cover just about all bases. If you have any questions about our tests just drop into the Storage Forum and we'll help you out!
Test System Setup
We have switched our testbed over to a more dedicated, forward thinking machine. We made some changes to help minimize test data scatter with higher bandwidth devices. Sound is flat out disabled, with no additional card installed. Video was *intentionally* shifted to a PCI unit to free up both PCIe-16 slots for testing tandem pairs of PCI Express cards (like ioDrives, DDRDrives, and high end RAID cards). Spot checks against the previous rig showed a negligible change in test output.
PC Perspective would like to thank ASUS, Corsair, and BFG for supplying some of the components of our test rig.

"Over a 10-year period, I can't recall any maintenance problems. The
L3830 is my fourth Kubota tractor. How's that for proof of reliability?"
Imagine the daunting task of building the American
dream as a livelihood. This is the challenge that Henry Christman and his crew at
Somerset Subdivisions of Clarksville, Tennessee, take on every day of the week.
Visit their job site and you'll see it strewn with numerous pallets piled
high with all kinds of building materials. Look around and you'll find stacks
of lumber, huge mounds of topsoil, cedar chips, gravel—everything you need
to build a dream home and then some. And although the materials vary according to
the homes, there are two things you'll always see at every Somerset Subdivisions'
job site: Henry Christman and his Kubota Grand L-Series 3830 tractor.
As we discovered during the home-building process, a lot of heavy materials need
to be lifted and moved almost constantly. For this purpose, Henry says his Kubota
L3830 is incomparable. "On my last tractor, the attachments had to be changed
manually and it was very time consuming. But with my Kubota L3830, I can switch
from bucket to loader in 10 seconds, thanks to Kubota's quick-attach system.
Its loader is also very strong, making easy work of picking up even a pallet of
Another Kubota benefit, according to Henry, is the incredible maneuverability of
his tractors. "Because we have a lot of materials and equipment around our
sites, open work space is limited. But because my L3830 is so nimble, I've
been able to get into the tightest spots and get the job done in much less time."
Henry also added, "All Kubota tractors are low to the ground, well balanced,
and because their motors and hydraulics are so strong, it's hard to overload
yourself." He also values the 4-wheel drive. "When my sites get muddy,
I'm the only one who can get in and out, thanks to Kubota's 4-wheel
drive. And sure, it's great to have the power to lift heavy things, but it
doesn't mean anything, unless you can steer and get yourself out like I do
with my Kubota."
Construction jobs are physically taxing, so, we asked Henry about the ergonomics
of his tractor. "Kubota tractors are truly well designed. It's one of
the main reasons I buy Kubota. All the controls are positioned within easy reach,
and because their operation puts almost no strain on you, you can work all day long
and not be tired. And for me and my crew, that's very important."
