Do MDs skip during playback? Why not?

Minidisc Frequently Asked Questions
Rarely. A read-ahead buffer stores a few seconds of the audio material in memory during playback. The ATRAC decoder takes the data from the buffer, rather than directly from the medium. Thus, if the mechanism mistracks because of shock or vibration, the data continues to flow from memory while the MD machine recovers. If no more data remains available (when the disturbance lasts a long time), the audio material gets interrupted.

Why did you discontinue the separate test for short-stature hybrids?

FAQ : Crop Testing
Several reasons led us to drop the short hybrid test from our program. The number of hybrids entered in that test had been decreasing over the past few years. In 2005 we had to add several filler entries just to get an entry list up to 10 or 20 hybrids. Also, there is no clearly objective way to distinguish a short hybrid from a medium-height hybrid, since the growing season can have a substantial impact on the mature height of many genotypes.

Why did you discontinue the protein, oil, and starch measurements in corn?

FAQ : Crop Testing
The time and expense associated with those data were too great when compared to the benefits of the information. While we still believe this information is important for growers, we did not detect that growers were making hybrid selection decisions based on these factors. Therefore we decided to concentrate our efforts on data that growers ARE using for selection decisions, and let other sources provide the grain quality data.

CAN I DISCONTINUE HRT?

Many women now taking estrogen or estrogen combined with progestins are able to discontinue their HRT. Please consult with a medical professional before doing so.
