As part of the FRP, Air India signed four agreements with the SBI-led consortium late last evening. These were Master Restructuring Agreement, Working Capital Facility Agreement, Appointment of Facility Agent Agreement and Appointment of Trustee Agreement, airline officials told PTI today.
"The Cabinet approval for infusion of funds is still awaited and is expected to be received some time next week," the officials said.
Implementation of the FRP would begin after the Union Cabinet approves additional equity infusion into the airline, they said. Officials of at least 19 banks were present at the signing ceremony here.
One of the major highlights of the agreements include conversion of about Rs 10,500 crore of the airline's working capital in to long-term loan, carrying an annual interest of 11 per cent. "The first year interest would accumulate in a funded interest term plan," they said, adding these would lead to substantial savings of about Rs 1,000 crore in 2012-13 itself.
In addition, non-convertible debentures (NCDs), guaranteed by the government, worth Rs 7,400 crore would be issued and subscribed by the investors, the officials said, adding proceeds from the NCDs would be used to repay the lenders. Apart from this, part of the working capital of about Rs 3,500 crore would be restructured as cash credit arrangement.

"Did not make it 1/2 way through this one"
It was awful. Formulaic with one dimensional characters. I can't think of one nice thing to say about this book.
"Not up to her usual standards"
I don't know, maybe I was anticipating too much. I love SEP books for for their humor, Their quirky out of the box way of looking at life. For that way of looking at things that just makes it all come together and this just didn't do it for me.
I frankly was disappointed. I had waited and waited for this book to come out. I thought the character of Lucy was flat, the story was so easy to anticipate and it just wasn't anything to write home about.
I feel bad writing a review like this because I just love everything else she has written so much, but I'm afraid this one is not up to her usual standards.
"Not Worth It!"
I love SEP, but this book is definitely among one of my least favorites. As other reviewers have mentioned, the narrator is ALL WRONG for Lucy. Since I have all her books, I will still purchase it when the next one comes out.
The story line has too many secondary characters which really distracts the reader/listener from the main story. Don't get me wrong, I usually love all the side characters in the other SEP books because I feel they embellish the story, but this is not one of those books.
While listening to the story, I just feel "that simply cannot be Lucy's voice!" It was way too nasal and old for Lucy. If anything, it makes one hard to find her charming or relate to her.
"Highly disappointing"
I've loved or at least liked all of SEP's titles so far and had high hopes for Lucy's story. Unfortunately, it fell really short - Lucy acted like a spoiled, rebellious teenager throughout the book, in addition to dress like one. "ick" factor aside for the sex scenes, her and Panda's romance was not believable to me. They were nasty to each other for most of the book and barely exchanged any meaningful conversations.
I also thought that the way PTSD is "resolved" in this book was pretty simplistic and way too easy. As someone who's had to deal with a similar situation with my husband, I can tell you that you are never "cured" of PTSD, you learn to manage it, to live with it and to get help from trained professionals. The "darkness" never really goes away. I wish the author had done more research on the subject, as it is an issue more and more families are facing in the US - you can't just gloss over it anymore.
Lastly, I thought SEP tried to cram too much in one book - 3 story lines is way too much and of course she wasn't able to do any of them justice!
Please bring back the quality of "It Had to Be You", "Match Me if You Can" and "Ain't She Sweet"!
Note that the narrator was fine (and was fine for the last few books of SEP) but the voice she gave Lucy added to the childish attitude of the character.
"Not bad... but not vintage SEP"
If I knew that I would be a writer, and I'm obviously not. I just know that some of SEP's greatest books, like Glitter Baby or First Lady, had characterizations, story and humor that somehow missed the boat in this one. I liked Temple tremendously but I think Lucy sometimes went off the deep end in terms of believeable behavior. "Viper"? Please. At times I actually cringed. I miss the multi-faceted Lucy we saw in First Lady. Also, it is never really touched upon that, if Lucy's mother was President, she very likely sent Panda (another wierdo name that doesn't really fit) into war. At the very least, she made decisions that altered his life irrevocably. This could be a very, very interesting character development that was completely glossed over. I think the President could have cast a much bigger shadow without another word of dialogue, and probably would have done so in a real life situation.As usual, I think the side plots really made the book. These were done well. The book had a theme about being true to oneself and the stories stayed true to it, for the most part. I like the fact that SEP builds characters I can like.
Another reviewer remarked that Lucy's behavior at the ending was shockingly manipulative. I agree, it made me like her less. Lucy seems to have a major deficit when it comes to acting like an adult, and this makes it very difficult to like her the way you want and need to like a principal character. I understand this is meant to be a plot point, but I got over reading teenage romance when I was, well, a teenager. This ending led me to believe that Lucy didn't grow up as much as I would have liked and I was disappointed in her.
Probably Temple. Nice and smooth and imperious - perfect!! I don't think Shannon Cochran spends a lot of time around 12-year-old boys - most of them don't have high, squeaky voices that make them sound like seven year olds.
Yes, absolutely. SEP is always worth a listen! While this book isn't the vintage SEP we have all compulsively read and re-read, I have major faith in this author. If she were to stop writing tomorrow (which I sincerely hope she doesn't) I would still re-read my favorites and treasure the time I spent doing so. That being said, I value and respect SEP too much to sugar coat reviews!
In summary, it's not the best we've come to expect from SEP but it's still a fun read within the genre and I will continue to purchase titles from SEP as long as she puts them out. Thank you!!
"2 Long 2 be 4 Gotten"
Should have been edited down to half the length Published
Shannon Cochran is a new reader for Susan Elizabeth Phillips and she takes a bit getting used to but just doesn't seem a good fit.
The performance lacks any luster and does not add anything to the story. I found myself getting bored and disinterested.
I really liked Meg's and Ted's story and have enjoyed most of Susan Elizabeth Phillips past books but this one seem like a she took parts of several of her past books and and re-tooled them into this one. Even the main characters nick names of "Panda and Viper" just were not appealing. Definitly not on my favorites list.
"Good light read"
If you are in the mood for a nice light romance SEF does a great job. I always listen to her when I don't want anything really heavy. Fun book.
"Missed the mark."
I liked the characters, especially the secondary ones, but the story was seriously lacking in what I would have expected from SEP. It almost seems as if she can't really relate to this generation anymore and was more interested in political and social nano-points rather than a convincing story. Just the name of the main male lead, "Panda", indicates how far this story misses the mark. Having said that, it does follow the traditional SEP format which many of us enjoy. In regards to what I liked least, I would say the narration assignment was so way, way off that it was unsettling; which isn't to say the narrator wasn't good, she is very talented but she seemed far more mature than the voice of the generation depicted in the story.
I would listen to a story associated with the Chicago group of stories, but not any associated with the Texas group or this First Family group.
She is a very talented narrator and did an excellent job with the craft of narration but she is far too mature for this story; it was unsettling and awkward.
Just giving the male lead a real name would of made a HUGE difference! What was SEP thinking? Who thinks "Panda" is sexy, swarthy and yet still respectable at the end of the day?
SEP writes a great story, she needs to develop stories and characters a bit older than these she is holding on to, she can't relate anymore.
"fun listen!"
If you like Susan Elizabeth Phillips you will really like this book it is just a really fun listen
"Love SEP!!!"
I'm always happy reading an SEP book. She sucks me into the pages every time.
While it's tough for anyone to step into Anna Fields/Kate Flemings's shoes, Shannon Cochran does an admirable job of it. She's easy to listen to.

5 Ways to Collaboratively Bring Art into Your Community
Krrb is now part of the Apartment Therapy family! Check out the Marketplace for an even wider selection of furnishings and home decor.
Visit the Apartment Therapy Marketplace »
Art has a way of bringing people together. Communities all over the world are using art to unite residents in its creation. Art projects rooted in local participation cultivate societal bonds and enhance neighborhoods making them fun places to live and play. Get inspired to do the same in your neck of the wood, using these examples (big and small) of what results when neighbors get creative, collectively.
Get to Stitching
Yarn bombs have become more popular in the past few years as way bring fun color in unexpected places. One of my favorite examples of this was Pittsburg's Knit the Bridge project where the Andy Warhol Bridge was covered in knitted, crocheted, and woven textiles. It took 580 knitted blankets to cover the 1061-foot long bridge, created by children, senior citizens and special needs groups in the city.
Turn Eyesores into Eye Candy
In just about any town, you'll find abandoned buildings. In Detroit, local artists collaborated to turn an abandoned apartment building into a massive community art project. With no plans for active use of the building, the purpose was to simply create a visual representation that while Detroit was struggling to get back on it's feet, life and creativity flourishes there.
Look Down
In Vancouver, neighbors gathered to create colorful murals on the street. Inspired by Portland's City Repair initiative, local artist Sonja Mulabdic worked with Viva Vancouver to transform the city's West End neighborhood. The street murals not only fostered community and improved the look of the urban locale, but it has also slowed down traffic as drivers take in the art.
Cultivating Art
Annmarie Sculpture Garden in Solomons, Maryland has a community arts residency program for those interested in public art projects. How great is that? The large garden has plenty of space for artists of ages to express their creative side. One of my favorite projects is made with recycled bottles. Known as Pillars: Wishes for a Better World, the installation encourages visitors to share wishes and over 1,100 wishes were made.
Make Art with a Power Message
Joel Bergner is a street artist whose work is known for social justice messaging. He's traveled the world from Kenya to Brazil to Syria, working with locals in bringing attention to their culture. In Kolkata, India, he collaborated with local artists and teenagers to tell their stories of having overcome obstacles such as human trafficking and homelessness. The 100-foot long mural on the south side of the city is symbolic of how far the city has come.

Never miss another 'Olly Murs' show
Olly Murs
With his second album, 'In Case You Didn't Know' set for release on November 28th, the X Factor runner-up heads out on a UK arena tour in 2012.
This event takes place at Genting Arena, which has achieved Bronze Status for disabled access from Attitude Is Everything.
Olly Murs
Olly Murs was the runner-up of The X Factor in 2009. The loveable Essex boy found his own style and sound, while proving the critics wrong by going straight to no.1 with his debut single, the reggae-tinged 'Please Don't Let Me Go' and later scored a further three more no.1s along with three no.1 albums.
His career has gone from strength to strength, playing stadiums supporting Robbie Williams, hitting the US leg of the One Direction tour and turning from pop star to TV presenter by co-hosting 2015's series of The X Factor. The cheeky chappie has certainly found himself at the right place, right time.

Any assistance from those who may have run into similar problems and found a fix would be greatly appreciated. Otherwise, if you have any ideas, I'm open to suggestions to try to fix this problem. Problem: Will not install. Gets to a point and says it cannot open a particular file. Attempted solutions: Run as administrator: No Luck. Next attempt to install...failed at the same file. Problem: Still not installing...gets to a point and stops. Attempted workaround: I copied the disk to my hdd so I could run it from there as admin and run in compatibility mode. It got to the same point as when installing from disk and stopped. The Error: The error box says: Error opening file for writing C:\Program Files\Mass Effect\saferun.dll Attempted workaround: I manually created a directory called Mass Effect along the Program Files path, and placed a blank file I created called "saferun.dll", set the permissions to everyone and their brother and tried again, but no difference in results. Not sure if I can locate the file on the hdd copy of the iso, reset the permissions, and force it through, but I guess I will try that next...the idea just came to me as I wrote this. Anyway...any help would be appreciated...I can still play ME on my laptop at decent quality and framerates, but the screen is much smaller and the load times are excruciating.

Not Another Bloody Play
When a performance is described as bloodless, it's usually a bad thing. But MDC Live's presentation of Sin Sangre (Without Blood), performed by the acclaimed Teatro Cinema of Chile, promises to be an exception. The experimental theater group has toured the world, bringing unique performances that employ everything from massive wooden steam trains to 3-D animation to puppeteers. Based on a novella by Italian author and playwright Alessandro Baricco, this show uses technology to blend live-action performance and video projections with incredible precision and care. The effect of the accuracy of this multimedia fusion is that the audience is left struggling to discern reality from projections. True to its novella roots, the production mingles the darkness of film noir with the quirks of a 1960s B-movie thriller.

Is The New Vegas Good For Guys?
Early entertainment in Las Vegas was high-minded. Men dressed in formal attire would come to the city with their wives to see A-list acts like Jimmy Durante, Frank Sinatra and Sammy Davis Jr. brought in from Hollywood. The essential night out included dinner, a show and some gambling and boozing at the Sands or the Tropicana — a few of the handful of casinos open at the time — all of which, except the gambling, would typically be comped by the casino.
Dinner, show, gamble"Back then, it was all about 'get them to gamble and the rest will be free,'" says Paul Draper, a Las Vegas-based cultural anthropologist and former teacher at UNLV (and former colleague of the late Hal Rothman, considered Vegas's leading historian). As the quintessential Rat Pack film Ocean's 11 made clear, Las Vegas in its original form was a city where riches, intrigue and the chance to win big were all part of the allure. It was a hustler's town, a city built by men for their own rakish enjoyment. For the average guy, rubbing shoulders with celebrities and being comped like one of them was worth the cost of gambling at the tables.
The same basic formula for Vegas nightlife remained consistent through the 1980s. The acts changed over time — solo celebrity shows gave way to variety shows with many entertainers, variety shows went topless with showgirls, and showgirls turned into magic acts, but the entertainment was always preceded by dinner on the casino property or a steakhouse like the Golden Steer, then followed by gambling and drinking.
"Most entertainment was name entertainment," says George Maloof Jr., owner of the Palms Casino Resort. "It was burlesque shows, big productions, Dean Martin and Sinatra (even in the 80s), Don Rickles — that was what people wanted. Dinner, show, gamble." The fundamental draw for guys coming to Vegas from cities like Chicago or San Francisco or Boise was that they got a taste of life as a freewheeling high-roller before going back to regular lives when the weekend was through.
The metamorphosisA hypothesis: There is an inverse relationship between how cool a casino game is and the amount of revenue it brings in.
Proof: In fiscal 2009, the average revenue breakdown for the 23 big Strip casinos went like this: Slots (53%, up 5% from 1999), table games (43%), poker/pan (2%), race book and sports book (each 1%). A hefty chunk of that table-games percentage comes from high-stakes baccarat, a game favored by Asian high-rollers (known as "whales") which is often played in private rooms. This is, therefore, probably an outlier with respect to overall gaming trends.
Las Vegas experiences a sea change...

Reviewed: 2 years ago
Traveled As: Family (older children)
Room Type: Balcony
Great service all around!! Many different things to do on this massive vessel. I have been on 8 cruises. It seems the quality of food has gone down a bit. My thinking is they want you to utilize the specialty restaurants, which are all very good. Wasn't a fan of the shows either. Chicago was boring. So many people got up in the middle and left. Really doesn't matter cause there getting rid of Chicago and Mama Mia is going to start up in a few weeks. So that sounds exciting. Over all I still recommend this beautiful Sip. It's a must see!

|Ft. Lauderdale (Port Everglades), Florida
|Add a tip. What was your favorite thing to do here?
|Labadee (Cruiseline Private Island)
|total beach day. they have ziplining but it cost too much. $100 for 30 seconds is not worth it to me.They should allow you to do it more than once with that price
|Falmouth, Jamaica
|falmouth was dirty and has lots of poverty going on. but we took a ride to dunns falls. which was awesome. Book with outside tours, you will save a lot of money compared what the ship charges for excurisons
|Cozumel, Mexico
|Mr sanchos is a must do!. All inclusive pass for the day. Great drinks and food! See izzy bartender!
Central Park Cafe is a great place to grab a bite to eat. Actually best food on the ship. Check out the solarium deck 16. Very relaxing and nice lounge chairs!

Governor Mitch Daniels confirmed yesterday what everyone has been expecting. He said in a statement that after a year of study and reflection, he will push for Indiana to join the 22 states which have enacted right to work laws.
Here is his entire statement:
"Right to work says only that no worker can be forced to pay union dues in order to keep a job. Lack of that simple freedom to choose costs some workers money they'd rather keep, but it also costs something even larger: countless middle-class jobs that would come to Indiana if only we provided right to work protection," said Daniels.
"Seven years of experience at our Indiana Economic Development Corporation has confirmed what every economic development expert tells us: despite our top-ranked business climate, Indiana gets dealt out of hundreds of new job opportunities because we have no right to work law. When a business allows us to compete, we win two-thirds of the time. But between a quarter and a half of the time, we don't make the first cut, due to this single handicap. Knowing how many additional jobs we could be capturing is what has persuaded me that we must enact this reform."
"I have listened with respect to the advocates of compulsory dues and looked into their arguments, but they just don't hold up. Right to work states have, if anything, better rates of worker safety. The vital right to organize is totally unaffected; every right to work state has significant union presence, and some have higher rates of unionization than Indiana does."
"If the national economy were not in such terrible condition, we might not find this step necessary, but in this time when so many are jobless, or struggling, it would be irresponsible not to act when we know that thousands of good jobs are at stake."

I hope you enjoy this story, just to say, I dont own Chronicle but I do own the universe that this story is going to be taking place in as it is a universe that I have not so meticulously devised. However, if I did own chronicle, it would probably have ended in a more open way, but kudos to the director of the film, ENJOY: P
I breathed deeply, my head swimming with the blow that had been delivered to me. The boy in front of my wheeled his fist back to go in for another punch, I didn't find out if he made that punch connect, I blacked out before it even got close. My name is Matthew Harris, but most people call me The Doctor, it's not out of respect or because I help people, I was named after the British TV show; it's more of a nerd symbol than a status symbol. As you can probably guess I'm not exactly the most loved of people and when things come down, they come down harsh. This is the story of how my life changed, of how I realised that the universe is more incredible than I could have ever imagined.
I woke with a splitting headache, the pain coming from deep within my skull and radiating to the rest of my body. The bed below me felt hard and I let out a low groan. I knew this bed as well as my own, school infirmary; this is where they put the kids that get knocked out.
"You okay now matt?" asked the nurse. I gave her an affirmative grunt in reply. "Okay, well, I've called your mom and she's expecting you home" she continued. I nodded, my head feeling clearer. That was a bit of a joke, my mom was not expecting me home at all, she would be at work at 1:00pm and by my watch it was 2:00. That meant she had answered from work and wouldn't be home till around 10. Really I could do whatever I wanted.
"Thanks, see yah miss" I said to the teacher and flicked my eye level hair to the right. I shouldered my back pack and walked out of the infirmary into the school playground. I drank in the air like an alcoholic, after being knocked out the best thing to get hold of is some air. I stretched my arms and slipped my hands into my pockets and began to walk, letting my legs do the walking and my brain thinking up new and imaginative ways to punish those who had hurt me in the past.
It was like I was in a state of meditation when I walked, and when I came too I found myself at the entrance to a dark tunnel in what appeared to be a forest. M y brain told me not to worry, the only forest that was anywhere near my school was the Brent forest, named so due to its proximity to the river Brent. I felt drawn to the hole in the ground, almost as if something from deep under was calling to me, caressing my mind and drawing me closer. I was absolutely helpless to resist its pull. My feet pulled me down the dank tunnel, my hands gently brushing against its muddy sides and the earthy smell drifting into my nose. The tunnel slowly began to widen into a large cavern with a blue light pulsing at the end.
I gasped, my heart beat quicker and I felt as if every atom in my body wanted, needed, to have contact with that light. I smiled as its crystalline blue danced its way across my fingers in intricate patterns, transforming into fragments of images across my palm. Still I moved forward, almost in a dream like state, until I as good as walked into the wall at the other end of the cavern. Only, this wall was different to the other earthy walls of the cavern. This one seemed to be made of a translucent blue, its crystalline surface reflected and refracting the blue light that seemed to come from deep within it. Little rivulets of water dripped down its surface; sometime a drip of water would come off, but then almost magnetically be pulled back onto the surface of the wall, my mind not even questioning the impossibility of it. So slowly, still being drawn to the wall, I lifted my hand, my palm facing it and fingers splayed outward. My brain was screaming in protest, finally sensing the danger, but, my palm had already been pushed to the wall. I smiled, feeling complete as a cool energy whipped through my body. I felt a warm trickle leak from my eyes, I presumed I was crying, the liquid dripped from my eyes and leapt from my face, being pulled like all the water I had seen, but it was not quite tears. The liquid seemed to be red and more viscous than water, as my vision faded and I could see the wall becoming red instead of blue, I thought red. That was when I collapsed to the ground.
When I opened my eyes again I saw that I had been dragged by some force out of the cave, I lifted my hand to my cheek and found it dry. I swallowed hard, this was impossible; I must have imagined walking into the tunnel, seeing the glowing blue wall transforming red. I turned and began to walk away, my entire body tingling with a new, raw and ancient energy. Something had changed within me, the rhythmic crunching of leaves below my feet set me thinking, I was entering my meditative walking state, heading in the direction of home, trying to kid myself that I had a concussion from my fight, that none of it had happened. But, in the back of my mind, I felt a small niggling doubt, like something new had happened that something had changed, that my life would never be quite the same.
I sat at my desk, pencil in hand, staring at the blank piece of paper before me, 2000 word essay on the norman conquest of Britain due in three days. I gulped, it was going to be tough, a deadline that I had to meet or risk failing my history class. I cracked my hands and splayed my fingers, palm out. All of a sudden it flooded into my mind, it hadn't been a dream, the wall was real, and the barrier I had been keeping up for a mere two hours had already failed. I didn't know what the wall had done to me but I could feel it, an energy coursing through me, something new and old, ancient and beautiful and itching to be set free. I let out a long breath. It had to be something to do with my hands, each time I splayed my fingers the feeling of energy returned, the feeling of power. I levelled my hand and pointed my palm at a pot that sat on my desk and concentrated. I didn't expect anything to happen, I didn't think anything would happen. I forced all of my will into my hand, and just as I had expected, no effect. I relaxed, letting my hand and mind go limp. The pot toppled.
My eyes bugged and a small trickle of blood seeped out of my nose. I smiled my heart racing.
"Don't overreact, it could have been the wind, you need to try again, just to be sure" I said to myself, chuckling slightly. I righted the pot and resumed my hand in the position, the feeling of power resumed; I focused my will into my hand and released it. The pot flew backward and impacted the wall, teetering to the right before finally falling over. My mouth formed an 'O' and I laughed. I had powers, real, brilliant powers, powers I could put to use.
I stared at the milk carton. Mom was still asleep and this would be my perfect time to practice. I curved my hand as if I was picking it up and lifted, not only my hand, but I pictured the carton moving, and move it did. The carton shook slightly in the air but it rose none the less. I then lowered my hand but imagined the carton staying where it was, the carton shook a little more and I could feel the beginnings of a headache, but, the carton stayed exactly where it was. I let a smile play across my lips. As I slept the previous night I had dreamt of conquering my enemies with my power, really the best power that there was telekinesis. I thought I was alone with my ability, that I was the only one. That would be proved wrong.
Right, I hope that has been an okay start, in my opinion I did what I could, im happy with it and I hope you are too. A review would be swell, it would be really truly very nice, I do have a direction I want to take this but outside ideas will be catalogued and quite a few will be easily implemented. Also, reviews are like fuel, they keep the little monkey in my brain that works things out keep on going. He likes reviews, their like bananas to him *gives monkey banana* why dont you give him one next?

Conservatives pontificate on the dreaded T-word.
3 comments
Like Rachel Maddow once said, "If you want to tea bag on a wide scale you'll need a Dick Armey."
That's funny, I thought the Tea Party movement was supposed to be a 3rd party, and not a conservative movement? Well then, that changes everything. I guess it IS wrong to call them "Tea Baggers" and only "Douche Baggers" should be used…
It's funny and kind of ironic the term "Tea baggers" . In middle school it meant "Placing your testes inside someones mouth and raising and lowering them to look like you are making tea." (Urban Dictionary) I thought they hated gay people.

canadian_chicawrote a review of CW-X 3/4 Length Stabilyx Tight - Women's on March 31, 2009
Woot! These are great! Once you get yourself in them (which can be a bit of struggle till you get a system sorted out)everything stay puts. I felt very secure in them and noticed a difference right away. I wear them for trail running and skiing. The 3/4 length is perfect since they stop just short of the top of my boot. There is a definite decrease in muscle fatigue, I ski/run longer/faster when I'm wearing these bad boys. There is an inside key pocket at the waist, but with how tight these are not sure how comfy a key would be sitting there.

Track and Field Set to Compete at Several Meets
April 17, 2013
RENO, Nev. -
The University of Nevada track and field team will have athletes competing across southern California this weekend in the Bryan Clay Invitational, Long Beach State Invitational, and the Mount SAC Relays.
The 55th Mt. Sac Relays will take place on the campus of Mount San Antonio College. Azusa Pacific University will host the Bryan Clay Invitational, while the Long Beach State Invitational will take place at Cerritos College.
"This will be one of our biggest challenges this season," head coach Shantel Twiggs said. "We will face some fierce competitors in each of the meets. It will be an important test to see where we are and how far we have to go to reach our full potential. Our goal is to continue to progress and build with each competition."
This weekend will provide the Wolf Pack with plenty of opportunities to compete, helping them sharpen up with the Mountain West Championships just three weeks away. The team has a lot to be confident in, after having strong performances from a handful of athletes competing in the Mondo Invitational last weekend. With more women in action throughout various venues this weekend, the ladies can gain some momentum adding to their confidence.
The Pack received first place finishes from Senior La Tijera Avery (Long jump) and Junior Kerri Simmons(Shot put) at last weekend's meet. Avery also finished second in the high jump rounding out her solid weekend. Seniors Samantha Calhoun and Angelica Earls both had career best times in the 200 meter dash finishing second and third overall respectively. Another weekend of big performances is just what the team needs heading into the final weeks of competition.
Check nevadawolfpack.com for results after completion of the meet.

The present invention relates to exchanging data between multiple devices in a computer system. More particularly, the invention relates to the exchange of data between multiple devices or computer systems at speeds which are independent of an individual device's data transfer rates or the size of the data being transferred.
Data processing systems normally have several devices which move data from the memory space of one device to another (Each device can be a single component such as a CPU, or a complete system itself.) An example of such a system is a personal computer that has a data acquisition module, and a communication module both of which have direct memory access (DMA) capabilities. That system can be characterized as having three devices (the processor and the two modules) which transfer data between their respective memory spaces. (Memory space is the logical address space describing the memory locations in which a device can store and retrieve data.)
In one type of conventional approach, all the devices exchange information in the memory by sharing a common bus. A bus arbitration scheme allows the devices to access the memory over the bus only one device at a time. Hence, when one device is reading or writing information in memory, no other device can use the memory. For example, when these two devices, which do not share a common memory space, transfer data among themselves along the common bus, the transferring device reads the first byte from a data block from its memory space and then writes this byte into the receiving device's memory space over the common bus. This sequence of reading and then writing of bytes is repeated until all the data of the data block has been transferred. During this time however, no other device connected to the bus can use the bus for other transfers and have to wait for the bus to become free.
An alternative approach is to provide a multi-ported memory so that each device has an independent port through which it accesses the shared memory. Although this approach is an improvement upon the use of a common bus since each device can talk to a different piece of the memory independent of the others, all the devices still have to eventually connect through a common memory bus to the memory chips. In other words, the multi-ported memory approach operates similarly to the common bus system described above. A memory bus arbitration scheme is therefore still needed which effectively slows down the system by dividing access to the memory among the number of devices connected to the memory.
Furthermore, even within a single device such as a personal computer, transfers (or re-arrangements) in the device's own memory space can be a relatively long process. The transfer of data within a single device's memory space is typically performed by a MOVE application, in which a series of MOVE instructions read data from a data block in one part of a device's memory space, and write it to another part of the device's memory space.
Another data transfer problem arises in existing real-time application systems. In such systems, data is acquired at a much faster rate than it can be processed. Accordingly, the data has to be temporarily stored. Conventional approaches require the system to wait for data to be completely acquired into a system RAM (random access memory) before any device can use the system bus. Also, when the processing device is manipulating the data, the conventional system cannot receive more data. In other words, either data is being acquired into the system or is being processed, but both functions are not performed at the same time.
Other proposed systems use a cross-bar switch to provide individual connections between multiple processors and multiple memories. In these systems, the multiple memories can be considered to form a large memory having a single, unchanging memory space. In other words, the arrangement and size of the memory will stay the same, although the data stored in the memory may change. With such systems data is not transferred from the memory space of one device to the other, since the devices all share a common memory space. Therefore, each of the devices must be able to address the entire memory space.
A need exists for a method and apparatus that allow multiple devices to transfer data among themselves at the highest possible speed, as well as to move data blocks rapidly within a single device's own memory space. Also, the need exists for a system in which data can be acquired and processed at the same time.
The present invention provides a computer system that has a plurality of devices, such as processors, each of which is coupled independently to a switch circuit. At least one of these devices has a memory map. A plurality of memory banks are also independently coupled to the switch circuit. Control logic controls the switch circuit to provide changeable independent couplings between any of the memory banks and the devices. The memory map of at least one of the devices is dynamically reconfigurable to include one of the memory banks in its memory map only when that memory bank is coupled to the device.
The different devices in the system share a pool of memory banks. Data is transferred between the devices by swapping the memory banks into and out of the individual device's memory space, instead of moving the actual data. This provides the advantage that the number of devices which can share memory is only limited by the number of memory banks available, and not by the bandwidth of either the memory or the devices. Also, the speed of the transfer of data between devices is limited only by the speed with which devices can be switched to memory banks and not by the size of the data.
The arrangement of the invention allows large amounts of data to be effectively moved to different locations in the memory space of any device nearly instantaneously. It does so by changing a base address of a memory bank containing data. This avoids the time required to perform typical MOVE data block applications in which a MOVE instruction would have to be issued several times in succession to move a large block of data from one location to another location in a memory map.
The switching of the connections between the device and the memory banks can be combined with the changing of the base address of the memory bank such that the same data from the memory map of one device can be effectively moved to anywhere in another device's memory map nearly instantaneously. Again, the speed of the transfer is limited by the switching time, not by the memory bandwidth or by the data size.
An embodiment of the invention provides real-time applications in which the data is acquired and processed at the same time. In this embodiment, one of the devices is a data acquisition device that acquires data from the outside world. The data acquisition device and the processing device have independent paths to the memory banks. Because of these independent paths, data can be both acquired (by the data acquisition device) and processed (by the processing device) at the same time.
FIG. 1 shows a block diagram of a computer system construct accordance with an embodiment of the present invention.
FIG. 2 shows a block diagram of a device port used in the embodiment of FIG. 1
FIG. 3 illustrates an exemplary embodiment of a bilateral analog switch usable as the switch in the embodiment of a system of FIG. 1.
FIG. 4 illustrates a multiplex switch usable as the switch in the embodiment of FIG. 1.
FIG. 5 shows a block diagram of a memory port used in the embodiment of the system of FIG. 1.
FIG. 6 is a diagram illustrating an example of a flow of control followed by the control logic of the embodiment of FIG. 1 to monitor the control registers of the device port of FIG. 2.
FIG. 7 illustrates an embodiment of the present invention having a data acquisition module that acquires data for the system.
A system constructed in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIG. 1 in block diagram form. The system includes two devices, a first device 10 and a second device 11. For example, device 10 may comprise CPU 16, memory 18 and disk drive 20, while device 11 may comprise CPU 22, memory 24 and disk drive 26.
The two devices 10, 11 have separate device ports 30, 31 that are devoted exclusively to the respective devices 10, 11. The device ports 30, 31 provide communication between the devices 10,11 and the rest of the system.
Each device port 30, 31 is separately and independently connected to both a switch circuit 40 and control logic 50. Under the direction of the control logic 50, the switch 40 establishes the actual connections between the devices 10, 11 and a memory pool 55.
The memory pool 55 is made up of a number of memory ports 60, 61, 62 and 63. Each of these memory ports 60-63 contains a single memory bank. Thus, memory port 60 contains memory bank 70, memory port 61 contains memory bank 71, memory port 62 contains memory bank 72 and memory port 63 contains memory bank 73.
Although FIG. 1 shows two devices that are connectable to any one of four memory ports, it should be recognized that any number of devices and memory ports can be used in this invention, limited only by the physical wiring complexity constraints.
A brief description of the operation of the invention now follows. For this example, assume that device 10 wants to send information to device 11. Device 10 will make a request to the control logic 50 for the use of a memory bank, for example, memory bank 70. Alternatively, the device 10 can simply request a transfer of information to the device 11, and the control logic 50 will assign an available memory bank to the device 10. If memory bank 70 is not currently being used, the control logic 50 will cause the switch 40 to make an actual connection between the device port 30 and memory port 60. Once this connection is made, the device 10 will load into the memory bank 70 the data which is to be transferred to device 11. It can do so because the memory bank 70 is in the memory space of device 10 once it is connected to the device 10. In order to reference memory addresses that are located in the memory bank 70, a base address for this bank 70 is provided by the device 10. This places the memory bank 70 within the memory space of device 10 at the specified base address.
Once the memory bank 70 is loaded with data from the device port 30, the control logic 50 will notify device 11 that device 10 is transferring information to it. The memory port 60 (and hence memory bank 70) will be disconnected from device port 30 and connected to device port 31. Once the connection between memory bank 70 and device 11 has been made through switch 40, the device 11 can access the data from the memory bank 70 whenever it desires to do so. In other words, the memory bank 70 is now within the memory space of device 11 at the location specified by the base address of that bank 70. As earlier, the device 11 will provide a specified base address to the memory bank 70.
It should be recognized that device 10 can load any one of the memory banks 71, 72 or 73 at the same time that device port 31 is connected to memory bank 70, since a single device can be connected to more than one memory bank at a time. Thus, at the same time that device 11 is accessing the data from the memory bank 70, device 10 can be communicating with memory banks 71, 72 or 73.
An advantage to the system shown in FIG. 1 is the nearly instantaneous transfer of data from one device to another device. A transfer of data from one device to the other device is made by simply "flipping" a switch so that the memory bank will be connected to the receiving device instead of the transmitting device. This changing of connections between memory banks and devices dynamically reconfigures the memory spaces of the devices. Further applications of the invention will be described later.
An exemplary embodiment of a device port 30 is illustrated in block diagram form in FIG. 2. Each device in the system has its own device port that is separately connected to the switch 40. As seen in FIG. 2, device port 30 has memory control lines 32, memory data lines 33 and memory address lines 34 that connect a single device 10 to the switch 40. In addition to providing the communication from the device 10 to the switch 40 (and hence to the memory banks 70-73), the device port 30 has a set of command and status registers 35. These command and status registers 35 are coupled to the memory control lines 32 and the memory data lines 33. The command and status registers 35 are needed to communicate with the control logic 50 in order for the device 10 to issue memory bank connection and release requests, as well as to ask for and receive memory pool status information. Conventional registers can be used for the port command and status registers 35. An exemplary set of commands is set forth below in Table 1, while an exemplary set of status information is set forth in Table 2.
TABLE 1______________________________________Device RequestsREQUEST DESCRIPTION______________________________________Unused Bank Request The device requests any available memory bank to be mapped into a specific location of the device's own memory space.Highest Priority The device requests the memoryRequest bank that has the needed data with the highest priority.Bank from Device A request for a memory bank with data from a specified device in the system.Send to Device A request to reassign a particular memory bank to another device in a specified location.______________________________________
TABLE 2______________________________________Status InformationSTATUS DESCRIPTION______________________________________No Such Bank The device request is not honored, either because all memory banks are already attached to the other devices, or because the specified memory bank is not available.Bank Attached The control logic established a connection with a memory bank, and the connection is valid.Bank Reassigned Informs the requesting device that the request to send has been honored.Bank Pending A memory bank with data is queued for the device.______________________________________
The memory address lines 34 are also coupled to an address decoder 36. Decoded memory addresses are provided by the address decoder to the port command and status registers 35. As stated before, the device ports 30,31 provide each of the devices with an independent path to the switch 40.
A number of different embodiments of the switch 40 are contemplated. Two characteristics of the switch 40 that are required are as follows. Once a connection has been established between a device 10 and a memory bank 70 in the memory pool 55, the memory bank 70 is required to be logically isolated from the other devices 11 and memory banks 71-73. The second requirement is that the switch be "transparent" to uni-directional as well as bi-directional signals. This means that if discrete logic chips are used for the implementation of the switch, the direction of the buffers should reflect the needs of a read, or a write cycle. Such switches can be implemented in different ways, either using standard off the shelf parts, or customized chips.
Two examples of the switch 40 are shown in FIGS. 3 and 4. In FIG. 3, a bi-lateral switch is shown. Switch 40 has an input/output line 42 coupled to device port 30, and a separate input/output line 44 coupled to device port 31. The input/output line 42 for device port 30 is coupled to four bi-lateral switches 46a, 46b, 46c and 46d. Input/output line 44 and data port 31 is coupled to each of four bi-lateral switches 46e, 46f, 46g and 46h.
The term bi-lateral means that the switches 46a-46h are bi-directional by design so that depending upon their position, they will allow communication between a device port and a memory in one switch position, and will prevent communication between the memory port and the device port in another switch position One switch from each of the two sets of switches is coupled to memory port connection line 48a, 48b, 48c, or 48d. Thus, the switches 46a and 46e operate to couple either device port 30 or device port 31 to memory port 60 through memory port connection line 48a. Also, switch 46a can be switched so that neither device port 30 nor 31 will be connected to memory port 60. The logic of the switch 40 is such that there is no direct communication between the individual memory ports 60-63 or between the devices 10 and 11.
The switches 46-a46h are controlled by control signals sent over switch control lines 47a, 47b, 47c, 47d, 47e, 47f, 47g and 47h. The switch control signals are generated by a decode logic 49 that is itself controlled by signals from the control logic 50. Standard decoding logic is used to determine the various switch positions based upon the control signal from control logic 50. It should be apparent from the above description that switch 40 can connect either device port 30 or 31 to any one or all of the memory ports 60-63.
Another example of a switch 40 is shown in FIG. 4. This embodiment of the switch 40 uses multiplexers 81-84 and tri-state buffers 86a-86d to effect the switching logic. For clarity of illustration, the connections for only two memory ports 60, 61 are shown in FIG. 4. The additional logic needed to couple two or more memory ports 62, 63 is easily accomplished by one of ordinary skill in the art. As in FIG. 3, the decode logic 49 is used to decode control signals from control logic 50. It decodes these signals and sends out control signals to the multiplexer 81-84 over respective control lines 8a-85d. The decode logic 49 also sends out control signals to the tri-state buffers 86a-86d over respective control lines 87a-87d. Appropriate control signals applied to the multiplexed and the tri-state buffers will cause a device port 30 or 31 to be connected to any or all of the memory ports 60, 61.
An advantage of the embodiment of FIG. 4 over the bi-lateral switch of FIG. 3 is that it more readily lends itself to implementation using gate arrays. For example, the embodiment of FIG. 4 uses standard discrete logic chips to switch between the two device ports 30, 31 and the two memory ports 60, 61. It should be noted that since logic devices are uni-directional by nature, additional logic is needed to control the direction of the tri-state buffers of the multiplexers 81-84 for read and for write cycles.
The two examples of the switch 40 described above both provide independent connections between the device ports 30, 31 and the memory ports 60-63 so that any device 10 or 11 can be coupled to any or all of the memory banks 70-73.
A typical memory port 60 is illustrated in block diagram form in FIG. 5. The memory port 60 is coupled to the switch 40 via memory control lines 64, memory data lines 65 and memory address lines 66. Although the data and address lines 65, 66 are shown in FIG. 5 as two separate lines, these could be replaced with a single time multiplexed DAL bus. The control, data and address lines 64, 65 and 66 connect the switch 40 to the memory bank 70.
The memory port 60 also has a base address register 67 that is programmable by the control logic 50. By changing the base address of a specific memory bank, such as memory bank 70, the control logic 50 can effectively move bank-sized data blocks within one processor's memory space almost instantaneously. This allows the control logic 50 to place the memory bank 70 anywhere within the selected device's memory space. A more complete explanation of this process follows.
Assume that device 10 has a memory address space of 0-1000. Also, assume that the memory bank 70 has 100 memory addresses, 0-99. When the device 10 is coupled to the memory bank 70 having 100 memory addresses, the device 10 will specify the base address of the memory bank. This places the memory bank anywhere in the memory space of the device 10. For example, device 10 can place the 100 memory addresses of the memory bank 70 in its memory space at locations 500-599. It does this by causing the base address of the memory bank 70 to be 500. The device 10 could just as easily place or move the base address of the memory bank to another address in its memory space, such as address 550.
To move the data in the memory bank 70 to a different location in its memory space, the device 10 simply causes the base address of the memory bank 70 to be changed from 500 to, for example, 800. The memory bank will then be located in the memory space of device 10 at locations 800-899. This movement of the data in the memory space of device 10 is nearly instantaneous. It only requires the changing of the base address of the memory bank, rather than the actual movement of data between locations in successive instructions in the memory of device 10, as performed in a typical MOVE application.
In the above description, it is apparent that a device 10 or 11 can place a memory bank anywhere within its memory space by simply changing the base address of the memory bank. Therefore, if it is advantageous for device 10 to always write to location 100, the base address of the memory bank 70 can be specified to be 100 when the memory bank 70 is connected to the device 10. Similarly, if it is advantageous for device 11 to always write to location 700 in its memory map, it can change the base address of the same memory bank 70 to 700 when that memory bank is connected to device 11. This provides great flexibility in memory mapping of the memory spaces of the device of the system.
The memory banks 70-73 can be any convenient size, such as 16 bits wide by 64K addresses deep. One convenient size is that of an ordinary data packet, since many devices are already designed to handle data in packet-sizes.
The control logic 50 can be a standard microprocessor. The basic functions of the control logic 50 are as follows. The control logic 50 monitors the requests from the devices 10,11. It queues the device requests for the memory banks 70-73. Control logic 50 provides the devices 10,11 with requested status information. The control logic 50 also controls the switch 40 and the memory bank base addresses. Finally, it maintains information on the contents, ownership, and assignments of the various memory banks 70-73 in the memory pool 55.
There are several requests or command types that devices 10,11 can initiate. Examples of these were already described in Table 1.
Upon receiving requests or command from a device 10 or 11, the control logic 50 searches for the requested memory bank, for example memory bank 73. The control logic 50 updates the base address and the switch 40 to place memory bank 73 in the requested location of the requesting device's memory space, as described earlier. At this time, both the "transmitting" and "receiving" devices 10 and 11, are informed of the updated memory pool status by writing to the device's 10,11 port status registers 35.
The control logic 50 also must arbitrate the requests of all the devices 10,11 in the system. One way is to implement the control logic 50 with a microprocessor that runs a routine which monitors all the control registers 35 of all the device ports 30,31 in a "round robin" fashion. FIG. 6 illustrates a flow diagram of such a routine. This algorithm ensures fair arbitration between the various device ports 30,31. The method also guarantees a predetermined latency period, since the time to service a particular device is constant. The latency period is the time required to service a particular device.
An alternative approach to arbitration would be to cause the control registers 35 of each device port 30,31 to interrupt the control logic 50 every time a device 10,11 has a request. The control logic 50 could then process the device's 10,11 interrupt according to an interrupt priority scheme. Instead of a microprocessor, a state machine which performs the same functionality as described above could be used, as well as other means of arbitration.
Two types of operation which can be performed by the present invention have already been described. One is the transfer of data from one device 10 to another device 11 through the change in the connections of the memory bank from one device 10 to the other device 11. Also discussed was a movement of a memory bank within the memory space of a single device 10, so as to dynamically reconfigure the device's memory space. This was performed by changing the base address of the memory bank 70 to which a device 10 is already connected. However, the transferring of the connection of the memory bank from one device 10 to another device 11 can be combined with the changing of the base address of the memory bank 70, so that the receiving device 11 will place the data from the memory bank 70 to a desired location in its own memory space. The memory spaces of both of the devices 10, 11 will be changed by such an operation.
The present invention also finds utility in fast data acquisition for a relatively slower processor. This is illustrated in FIG. 7, which shows the embodiment of FIG. 1, but with a data acquisition device 90 coupled to the switch 40.
It is known that some communication and real time applications receive data much faster than a processor, such as device 10, can handle. Conventional approaches require the system to wait for data to be completely acquired into a system RAM before any device can use the system bus. Conversely, when the processing device is manipulating the data, the conventional system cannot receive more data from the outside world.
The present invention solves this problem since data can be acquired and stored in a memory bank 70-73 at the same time as other data is being processed by the device 10 or device 11. This is possible because of the separate buses for the data acquisition device 90 and the device 10.
In operation, the data acquisition device 90 will load memory bank after memory bank, as it acquires data. As one memory bank 70 is filled, the data acquisition device 90 will be connected to a different memory bank 71 so that it can load that memory bank. The processing device 10 will be connected to the memory bank 70 after the memory bank 70 has been filled by the data acquisition device 90. The device 10 can then process the information in the memory bank 70 at its own speed. On the other hand, the data acquisition device 90 can acquire data at a much faster pace and load the remaining memory banks 71-73 while the device 10 is operating on the data in the first memory bank 70 that was filled. When the system is provided with several memory banks, very large bursts of data can be acquired, while allowing the device 10 to process smaller portions of data.

Riverton council to decide trash pick-up schedule tonight; Recommendation is 4-days a week
(Riverton, Wyo.) – There will be a lot of trash talking tonight at the Riverton City Council's regular meeting as the topic of changing the city's garbage pickup will be decided. A city staff report recommends going to all 45-gallon roll-out containers system for residential customers, replacing alley dumpsters. The recommendation was made by a task force studying the issue. See that report here.
Just as he did last week before the Lander City Council, Fremont County Emergency Medical Services Director Joe Zelmer will give the Riverton Counselors an update on changes being made by the ambulance service as a result of budget restrictions.
Police Chief Mike Broadhead is also scheduled to present a report on the city's public intoxication situation and a bid for an overlay on Pure Gas Road proposed by the For Our Roads Citizens Committee using optional one cent tax funds will be heard.
The meeting begins at 6:45 p.m. with a pre-meeting. The regular session convenes at 7 p.m.
