    Cargill: Inside the quiet giant that rules the food business.

    From the article: However, roughly 100 descendants of the founders still own around 90% of the stock, worth some $52 billion as of the last official tally. Wow, I'd have to include quite a few "low life's" in my list of 100 descendants. That's a big family and a lot of very old money.

    Dumping hard drives in the Chicago River

    How about a microwave oven? I use one for CDs & DVDs, I've often wondered if it would fragment/destroy the face of a HDD as well. If you haven't tried it, it only takes a few seconds and it is quite a "light show." :) There's always a wood chipper.

    Dual Channel vs Quad Channel RAM question

    Yes, agree. When I built my box the 4 DIMM slots on the Mobo (MSI 890FXA-GD70) were supported with dual memory mode. However, my manual reads, "Due to chipset resource deployment, the system density will only be detected up 15+GB (not full 16GB) when each DIMM is installed with a 4GB memory...

    Dual Channel vs Quad Channel RAM question

    Yes that's true. So a person could buy a quad kit (4 sticks) of triple channel RAM or a hexa kit (6 sticks) of dual channel RAM. It's kinda like semi-boneless chicken. :)

    Dual Channel vs Quad Channel RAM question

    Yes, a matched set. The KEY here is the word KIT. e.g. (2) sticks = dual channel kit, (3) sticks = triple channel kit, (4) sticks = quad channel kit and (6) sticks = hexa channel kit It's also important to note, these kits (sets) are guaranteed to perform at advertised specifications...

    What's your favorite trading software?

    Chicago_CTA It's my understanding the green column on the CST T4 DOM is a accumulation of all contracts traded at that price, I also understand this data can be "cleared" at any time. Allowing a trader to begin accumulating this volume on price data at anytime, say 7:20am or 9:30am...
