Just quickly looked one up on the list, I grow it.. a fairly new Canadian apple for the prairie, [Norkent]. Very missleading information, perhaps not suited for hes climate, this is a apple which can match any in the store! And it's Canadian, not tart and astringent! From hes list... Norkent �" (St. Lawrence Nursery) Haralson X Rescue, Extremely hardy, Greenish-yellow under orange, red, russeting, ripens midseason, Fruit about 2 inches, firm, tart to astringent; fair for eating and cooking. Tree is small and upright. Bears at a young age. This post was edited by konrad___far_north on Sat, Apr 12, 14 at 17:54

THE CCRS 14th ANNUAL RARE AND UNUSUAL ROSE PLANT AUCTION IS NEXT WEEKEND. Here are further details: Saturday, Nov. 15th and 16th. The power point presentation of roses featured in the SILENT PORTION of the Auction by our distinguished authorities will begin on Saturday at noon. Our Speakers for Saturday, November 15, 2014, are Ping Lim (Hybridizer Altman Plants) at 12:00 noon; Burling Leong (Hybridizer Burlington Nursery) at 1:00 PM; Jill Perry (Curator San Jose Heritage Rose Garden) at 2:00 PM; Dr Keith Zary (Hydridizer Spring Hill Nursery) at 3:00 PM; Bob Martin (Hybridizer, Author, ARS Master Rosarian) at 4:00 PM and Cliff Orent (Hybridizer, Author, ARS Consulting Rosarian and past owner Euro Desert Nursery) at 6:30 PM (after dinner). Our Speakers include 5 Hybridizers, 2 Nursery owners, 1 Curator of an important public garden rose collection, 1 Master ARS Consulting Rosarian, multiple ARS CRs and multiple prolific Authors. Dinner with the Speakers will be at 5:00 PM. Several seats are left. Make your reservations via the website or email me. Each diner orders just what he/she wishes and will receive his/her own bill. On Sunday we will hold the SILENT AUCTION from 10:00 AM to noon. We will have volunteers with special knowledge of the plants offered on the floor to attempt to offer advice for those who seek it while they are shopping. At noon the Bidders will take a break for the next hour and a half for a leisurely lunch while all available CCRS members will help with sorting. The LIVE AUCTION will take place Sunday from 1:30-3:30 PM. Keep in mind that the minimum bid in all parts of the Auction is $1. Payment is by cash or check. The Auction may be accessed online at CCRSAuction.com. Online bids for both the live and silent auctions are accepted up to 12 noon on Friday, Nov. 14th, and will be acknowledged by a confirmation e-mail. On Sunday, November 16, 2014, our Proxy Bidders will attempt to obtain plants for online participants, as if they were spending their own money -- plants will be sold to the highest bidder, but only at around $1 over the next highest bid, so even if you bid high over the internet, you are protected from overpaying if there are no other bidders. We will mail plants purchased to warm climates within 2 weeks and special arrangements can be made online for those living in areas with a winter for delivery next spring. With the help of many, John Bagnasco has assembled over 300 really wonderful hard to obtain, rare, endangered and sometimes unique plants. I am certain that you will find something to suite your taste. Please take a moment to check the offerings on the website. We have linked the listings in the auction with the HMF page for that variety to assist you in learning about these roses. We have also provided a form for internet bidding at the beginning of each list of roses to be auctioned, that should be e-mailed to us no later than Friday, Nov. 14th at 12 noon (PDT) if you can't make it to the auction in person. I do recommend coming in person, however, since we always have more roses available than bidders, and many bargains will be available, It is up to you to do your research ahead of time so that you know it when you see a bargain! Internet bidders also get their share of bargains, but some of that is ultimately eaten up by shipping costs, which we ask each internet bidder to pay at our actual cost for shipping (no "handling" fees -- we volunteer for that).

Ok...I just copied what it said I needed from the instructions. The installation from my old Dell was all on one disk. I'd be afraid I'd mess up the installation if it ended up on multiple CDs. Maybe I should say that there would be more chance for error on my part. The instructions also said that the USB key should have a minimum capacity of 8 GB. Well, when I go to Control Panel, I see there are 45 programs now with total space of 1.12 GB. So what gives with them saying I need a minimum of 8GB? I'm guessing that it would all go on one of the disks at the link below. About them...it says, "This recordable DVD features AccuCORE technology which is 100x more scratch resistant than standard discs. Fights static, repels stains and fingerprints" Here is a link that might be useful: 25 DVD+RW Re-Recordable DVD 4.7GB

Sounds like you've just about declared it dead :) If it is, it is, but I just wanted to try to narrow it down, and I didn't want to throw money around willy-nilly in the hopes of figuring out what the problem is. Your search took me to Ebay Canada. I took the liberty of changing the .ca to .com to get Ebay US, but with the same search. Why pay extra shipping if I don't have to? Like I said, I'm a novice at this, so I may not be entirely sure what I'm looking at, but from what I've noticed, I only clicked on the ones that had 3 memory slots (I have three sticks, so might as well use them), and from what I could tell, all the ones I looked at were listed as used, and total with shipping they still came darned close to $90. I did see this one below which ends in the morning (hopefully nobody here will sabotage me and bid against me!) and comes with a CPU which is slower than mine. I don't know the difference between a K8N-E and a K8N4-E. At least in the one I showed you earlier this morning, the MB was used, but the CPU that came with it was an UPGRADE to the one I have now. In fact, it's the fastest chip that can go in that board. The chip by itself (ATHLON 3400 CPU, 754 socket) is selling for $25US anyway on Ebay. I just thought overall, the whole repair would be cheaper, since I can replace my CPU for under $10, but if the going price of these motherboards means I'm going to wind up paying (total with shipping) $80-$90 anyway for a used board with no CPU, I just as well get the one with the 3400 in case my CPU is fried as well, correct? Thank you again, and forgive me if I'm being presumptuous. I just want to make sure I'm understanding correctly. If I'm wrong in any way, feel free to slap my wrist.
