The esophagus is a muscular tube that carries food and liquids from the mouth to the stomach. If the esophagus is too narrow, swallowing problems can occur.
During an esophageal dilation, the doctor places a tube-shaped device into the esophagus to widen the narrow part. This procedure makes it easier to swallow and get proper nutrition.
Esophageal dilation is done to treat a narrowing in the esophagus, called a
stricture. This happens when there is a build-up of scar tissue, which may be due to conditions like:
Copyright © Nucleus Medical Media, Inc.
Esophageal dilation widens the esophagus. Some patients may need the procedure repeated within a year.
Complications are rare. But no procedure is completely free of risk. If you are planning to have esophageal dilation, your doctor will review a list of possible complications, which may include:
Some factors that may increase the risk of complications include:
Talk to your doctor about these risks before the procedure.
In the days leading up to the procedure:
Talk to your doctor about:
In some cases,
general anesthesia
will be used. This will block any pain and keep you asleep during the procedure. A local anesthetic may also be used to numb the esophagus, and a sedative will be given to relax you.
An esophageal dilation will usually be done along with an
endoscopy. During an endoscopy, the doctor will place a slim, flexible tube into the mouth and then into the esophagus. The tube has a tiny light and a camera attached. This will allow the doctor to view your esophagus on a monitor.
An imaging technique called fluoroscopy may also be used, especially when the dilator is being placed. With fluoroscopy, x-rays images of your esophagus will be sent to a monitor for viewing.
After observing the stricture, the doctor will decide which type of dilator to use to stretch the stricture. These tube-shaped devices are available in different sizes and styles. Depending on how severe your stricture is, the doctor may choose a
plastic dilator
or a
balloon dilator.
For the plastic type, the doctor will use a scope to place a guide wire into the esophagus. This will allow the doctor to place the dilator in the correct spot. The scope will be taken out, and a tapered dilator will be placed through your mouth and throat to the site of the stricture. Depending on your condition, the doctor may need to do this process several times using wider dilators.
If a balloon device is used, it will also be inserted using a scope. Once the dilator is in the correct position, the doctor will inflate the balloon to a certain size to widen the stricture.
About 15 minutes
In most cases, you will not have any pain or discomfort during the procedure. In the days that follow, you will have a sore throat.
You will be monitored in the recovery room. The hospital staff will check to make sure your gag reflex is working normally. The gag reflex is your body's natural reaction when something too large enters the back of the throat. It is your body's way to protect you from choking.
Do the following to help ensure a smooth recovery:
After arriving home, contact your doctor if any of the following occurs:
In case of an emergency, call for medical help right away..

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"These invitations are gorgeous! I was looking for an elegant wedding invitation which embodied the Vintage Romance theme that I was shooting for. I went to a few local shops and was told that the style I was looking for would cost me between $9-$12 an invite... which was just not going to happen. After a lot of frustration I found Wedding Paper Divas site and loved every sample that I ordered from them (at reasonable prices to boot!). When it came down to ordering the invite this one fit the bill beautifully. It was simple yet had a unique design and looks amazing on the black pocket folds that I ordered."
"Just received our wedding invitation and it looks amazing!! the paper quality is great, design looks lovely, and printing/delivery was so fast Thank you so much!! would highly recommend!!"
"I absolutely Loved this invitation! It totally set the tone for my wedding. I ordered them with the pearl shimmer which made them look that much more beautiful! Customer service was also great! I had an error on the rsvp labels and luckily they have live chat after hours, and was able to speak with someone who helped me immediately and shipped out new envelopes the next day. I would highly recommend this company, they are wonderful!!"
"Excellent quality...Received many compliments on the design. I am extremely happy with this product and I highly recommend it! ...Also, the design on the back is well worth the few extra bucks."
"There aren't enough words to accurately describe how perfect these invitations turned out. They are breathtaking. I customized this to our wedding colors and used pearl shimmer and I'm in love. They designer called me to discuss every detail and was very available and helpful. I'm so impressed with the service I received during the entire process!!! From the instant chat questions to the designer, it was incredible. And once the proofs were approved we received the invitations in a couple of days. I love this company. They let you do whatever you ask to make your order perfect."

ARMY OF DAVIDS UPDATE: Well, the book officially comes out in just over a month -- if you'd like to preorder a copy (and I'd really appreciate it if you would, as the publisher thinks its important to have lots of preorders, and early enough that the books will actually be on-hand and ready to ship that first week) you can do so via Amazon or, if you're one of the people who doesn't like Amazon, there's always BarnesandNoble.com, or your local brick-and-mortar bookstore.
Here's an advance look at some of the blurbs that will appear on the book (and, someday, on the Amazon, B&N, etc., sites):
"Reynolds shows that technology can empower individuals to determine their own futures and to defeat those who would enslave us . . . a book of profound importance—and also a darn good read."—MICHAEL BARONE, senior writer at U.S. News & World Report and author of Hard America, Soft America
"Glenn Reynolds has written an essential book for understanding how technology and markets are creating a bottom-up shift in power to ordinary people that is changing business, government, and our world. Packed with fresh ideas and adorned with graceful prose, An Army of Davids is a masterpiece."—JOE TRIPPI, author of The Revolution Will Not Be Televised
"Reynolds shows how average Americans can use new technologies to overcome the twin demons of corporate greed and incompetent government." —ARIANNA HUFFINGTON, author of Pigs at the Trough and Fanatics and Fools
"A smart, fun tour of a major social and economic trend. From home-brewed beer to blogging, Glenn Reynolds is an engaging, uniquely qualified guide to the do-it-yourself movements transforming business, politics, and media." —VIRGINIA POSTREL, Forbes columnist, author of The Future and its Enemies
"Reynolds' beguiling new book tells the insightful story of how an 'army of Davids' is inheriting the Earth, leaving a trail of obsolete business models not to mention cultural, economic, and political institutions in its wake."—RAY KURZWEIL, scientist, inventor, and author of several books including The Singularity is Near
"'Must read,' 'gotta have,' 'culture changing,' –I am suspicious of blurbs with such overused plugs.
But Glenn Reynolds' An Army of Davids is in fact a must read new book, that you gotta have if you are going to even glimpse the culture changing forces that are unleashed and at work across the globe.
And did I mention that it is the best title in a decade?" —HUGH HEWITT, syndicated talk show host and author of Blog: Understanding the Information Reformation That's Changing Your World.
An Army of Davids: How Markets and Technology Empower Ordinary People to Beat Big Media, Big Government, and other Goliaths (ISBN: 1-59555-054-2, $24.99 U.S., Nelson Current) will publish March 7, 2006.
But you can pre-order it now! Did I mention that?
UPDATE: Laurence Simon emails:
Will you be offering signed copies of the Army of Davids book?
I've been collecting autographed copies of blogger books.
That and Pez dispensers. But I'm assuming there isn't a Glenn Reynolds Pez Dispenser.
Will you be offering signed copies of the Army of Davids book?
I've been collecting autographed copies of blogger books.
That and Pez dispensers. But I'm assuming there isn't a Glenn Reynolds Pez Dispenser.
Sadly, no. But I'll figure out a way to autograph a copy of the book for anyone who wants it.
MORE: Several readers sent advice like this, from Laura Blanchard: "Signed bookplates... much cheaper to mail than books."
Great idea. Closer to the pub date I'll post more on how to do this: An address you can send a SASE to and I'll return a signed bookplate, or some such.
Meanwhile reader Kathleen Hay observes: "I think this is a shrewd time to release your book. I just received $75 in amazon gift certificates that come from spending money using the amazon Visa card for Christmas presents."
That's enough to buy 4 copies!

PadmaVonSamba wrote:...That is my understanding, anyway...
The way I see it is this - If a person dreams about a horse and a rider then they have the perspective of either the horse or the rider. Even if the dream is lucid then they may realise that they are in fact both, yet at no point can they actually take the perspective of being both the horse and rider at the same time.
The perspective from which things are seen is always free-floating and the things which are seen is just the "self" as it appears as being other than the place from where they are seen.
Therefore no self can be found in the things which are seen, and the place from where they are seen is somehow ethereal and can't really be located anyway - and yet the two aspects still continue to appear in their disparate unity.

Our Story
Located in South Seattle, in beautiful and scenic Tukwila, WA, on the banks of the Duwamish River, we constantly run back and forth to Eastern Washington to either hang out with the growers, comfort the grapes, or gently pick them and nurture them at the winery. Once in possession, there is an old cliché which we like to stand by: "You can make bad wine with good grapes, but you can't make good wine with bad grapes." We make sure the vineyards are top-notch, then try not to mess it up.
Travis Scarborough, a Napa Valley (St. Helena), native came up to Washington where he could live out his dream of making wine for himself. Growing up in the Napa Valley he worked for Pine Ridge, Chateau Montelena, & Viader Winery & Vineyards. Tired of helping to craft the great wines, he was able to start with a mere 300 cases while working two other jobs. In 2007 he finally had his own facility and in 2009 was finally able to quit the other jobs and focus his attention on Scarborough Winery (once named O'Shea Scarborough). Since then, production has leveled off at 1500 or so. This allows Travis to personally know each barrel.
If you like overripe, over-oaked, extremely tannic & alcoholic wines, this is not your place. Conversely, if you like concentrated, but never overripe, and only using about 50-60% new oak, finesse, balance & yet age-worthy, then this is your winery. Hope to see you soon.

This tutorial walks you through installing MySQL on Ubuntu with the Aptitude repository system.
For this article, we are making these assumptions:
# sudo aptitude update
In order to make sure our packages install correctly, we must set the locale information for Perl using the following command:
# sudo aptitude install language-pack-en-base
In order to keep our server secure, we need to update all of the software on your server. We will use Aptitude to perform the update using this command.
# sudo aptitude upgrade
After the updates are finished, we can install the MySQL server.
1. Use this command to install:
# sudo aptitude install mysql-server
2. When you are prompted for your root password, enter it and press OK.
3. When you are prompted for your root password, enter it and press OK.
After the installation is finished, it begins to run on your server.
Now that we have the MySQL server running, we need to secure the installation.
1. Type this command to start the secure setup script:
# sudo /usr/bin/mysql_secure_installation
2. When you are asked for your current root password, enter the password you chose earlier and press Enter.
3. Because you have already chosen a root password, press N and then Enter.
4. You will be prompted to remove the MySQL anonymous users. For security reasons we want to do this. The text above the question explains this in more detail. Press Y and then Enter.
5. When you are asked if you would like to disallow remote login for the root user and only allow connections from the server itself, press Y and then Enter to keep the server secure.
6. MySQL ships with a default database called test. You do not need this and can delete it. Press Y and then Enter to delete the test database and it's associated users.
7. This step reloads the user settings (called privilege tables) so that all user changes take effect. Press Y and then Enter to continue.
Your MySQL installation is now finished. Keep in mind that this only supports local connections and does not allow you to connect remotely. MySQL - Connect to your database remotely explains how to make this happen.

Tips on setting up Virtual Machines in Linux
Subject: General Tech | September 9, 2013 - 02:43 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: virtualization, virtualbox, linux
When we talk about virtualization at PC Perspective we tend to talk about Windows, both for the host and the VMs. For those who want a more penguin flavoured VM, Linux.com has a brief look at how to set up VirtualBox on a machine running Linux and creating and provisioning VMs. Why should only Microsoft users benefit from the new optimizations on Intel and AMD processors?
"VirtualBox is the excellent and user-friendly Type 2 Hypervisor that supports all the major operating systems. A Type 2 Hypervisor requires a host operating system to install on, and VirtualBox can be installed on Linux, Solaris, Mac OS X, and Windows. Then you can run any of these operating systems on VirtualBox as guests in virtual machines."

Tagged: virtualization, shadow defender, light virtualization
Light Virtualization is essentially a sandbox tool for those who do not have the equipment available to set up a full virtual machine server. It allows you to create a virtualization buffer or partition on your system drive which will not save any changes made to the system unless specified, perfect for testing software or patches as well as for ensuring almost any malware infections will not survive a reboot. Shadow Defender is light virtualization software which has been around for a while but has not been updated for about two years, until very recently when a major update arrived. This update encompasses many of the recent changes to hardware such as TRIM support for SSDs and even support for Win8. While it won't stop an infection from hitting your PC, as long as you do not save any of the changes made to the virtualized portion of your drive any rootkit or other such malware will not survive a reboot. Take a look at how to use the software and how effective it is over at Tweaktown.
"Shadow Defender (or SD for short as it is known among its dedicated fans) has been enjoying a great reputation among Light Virtualization fans during the last few years. There has been a barren period of two and a half years where development was interrupted, leaving v22.214.171.1245 (which was released back in February 2010) as the last known good version."

AMD Releases the FIREPRO R5000: PCoIP and Teradici
Subject: Graphics Cards | February 27, 2013 - 09:42 PM | Josh Walrath
Tagged: workstations, virtualization, Teradici, remote management, R5000, pitcairn, PCoIP, firepro, amd
A few days back AMD released one of their latest FIREPRO workstation graphics cards. For most users out there this will be received with a bit of a shrug. This release is a bit different though, and it reflects a change in direction in the PC market. The original PC freed users from mainframes and made computing affordable for most people. Today we are seemingly heading back to the mainframe/thin client setup of yore, but with hardware and connectivity that obviously was not present in the late 70s. The FIREPRO R5000 is hoping to redefine remote graphics.
Today's corporate environment is chaotic when it comes to IT systems. The amount of malware, poor user decisions, and variability in software and hardware configurations is a constant headache to IT workers. A big push it to make computing more centralized in the company with easy oversight from IT workers. Servers with multiple remote users can be more easily updated and upgraded than going to individual PCs around the offices to do the same work. This is good for a lot of basic users, but it does not address the performance needs of power users who typically run traditional workstations.
AMD hopes to change that thinking with the R5000. This is a Pitcairn based product (7800 series on the desktop) that is built to workstation standards. It also features a secret weapon; the Teradici TERA2240 host processor. Teradici is a leader in PCoIP technology. PCoIP is simply "PC over IP". Instead of a traditional remote host which limits performance and desktop space, Teradici developed PCoIP to more adequately send large amounts of pixel data over a network. The user essentially is able to leverage the power of a modern GPU rather than rely on the more software based rendering of remote sessions. The user has a thin client provided by a variety of OEMs to choose from and they connect directly over IP.
The advantages here is that the GPU is again used to its full potential, which is key for those doing heavy video editing work, 3D visualization, and CADD type workloads. The latest R5000 can support resolutions up to 2560x1600 up to two displays. The same card can support 1920x1200 on four displays. It supports upwards of 60 fps in applications. The TERA2240 essentially encodes the output and streams it over IP. The thin client re-encodes the stream and displays the results. This promises very low latency over smaller networks, and very manageable latency over large or wide area networks.
The downside here is that one client at a time can connect to the card. The card cannot be virtualized as such so that multiple users can access the resources of the GPU. The card CAN run in a virtualized environment, but it is again limited to one client per card. Multiple cards can be placed in each server and the hardware is then placed in its own VM. While this makes management of hardware a bit easier, it still is an expensive solution when it comes to a per user basis. Where efficiency may be regained is when it is placed in an environment where shift work takes place. Or another setting is a University where these cards are housed in high powered servers away from classrooms so cooling and sound are not issues impeding learning.
Why talk about Win8 when you can hear about Windows Server 2012
Subject: General Tech | November 2, 2012 - 12:37 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: HyperV, microsoft, windows server, WS2012, vmware, virtualization
Today is launch day for WS2012, the first new Microsoft server OS many years and it brings with it a host of changes. While advertisers talk about 'the Cloud', server admins are into virtualization and that is a big part of the update to WS2012, with Hyper-V arriving an integral feature of the new server OS and highlights Microsoft's next target. They've demonstrated the robustness of their virtualization implementation by running Bing and TechNet on Hyper-V, something very important for a relatively new piece of enterprise software to accomplish. The specifications are impressive, from the amount of CPUs and addressable memory which can be granted to a VM, to the virtual Level-2 switches which can be created. Of course it is not all virtuality, a new ReFS disk format and built in file deduplication make this a much more impressive upgrade than the previous Server 2003 to Server 2008. Read more and catch some movies at The Register.

CiiNow Engineering Open Cloud Gaming Platform With AMD Radeon Graphics Hardware
Subject: General Tech | September 11, 2012 - 10:41 AM | Tim Verry
Tagged: virtualization, radeon, onlive, gaming, cloud gaming, ciinow, amd
In the wake of OnLive going bankrupt and selling itself to new investors, a new cloud gaming company has emerged called CiiNOW. The company was founded in 2010 and now has 24 employees. It has managed to raise more than $13 million USD, but with a new investment from new chip designer AMD CiiNow is ready to go public with its software. Interestingly, instead of starting its own cloud gaming service, CiiNow is positioning itself as a Middleware company by selling its virtualization and gaming software to other companies. Those business customers would then use CiiNow's software to start their own cloud gaming services.
In the deal with AMD, CiiNOW will recommend AMD Radeon graphics cards to customers as well as supporting them on its software platform. According to CiiNow, its virtualized platform is able to run on any data center or cloud computing platform's hardware. While OnLive generally required specialized servers where the graphics card was dedicated to providing games to one (or a small number of) user(s), CiiNow claims to be able to provide up to eight 720p HD streams per server blade, and up to 272 HD streams per traditional server rack. On the user side of things, CiiNow has stated that gamers would need at least a Mbps internet connection in order to play the streamed games effectively. Company CEO Ron Haberman was quoted by Venture Beat in stating the following:
"One of the big issues with cloud gaming is that no one likes to talk about costs, we are more economical because we virtualize any hardware that fits underneath our software."
While the company has not gone into details about how the virtualization software works on off-the-shelf servers, they claim that it is an extremely scalable solution that can support rapidly growing numbers of end users without dramatically increasing hardware costs. It's impossible to say how well cloud gaming services based on this technology will work without more details or a hands on, but it is nice to see someone else take up the mantle from OnLive – especially with competitor Gaikai being bought out by Sony. CiiNow wants its technology to be used to deliver AAA titles to gamers over the Internet, so I'm interested in how they are going to pull that off using varying hardware with CiiNow's software layer running on top (specifically, the performance they will be able to get out of the hardware and how it will be sliced up between clients/gamers).
The company has said that games will not need to be ported to the virtualized software to work, only a DRM free copy from the publisher needs to be provided to load it onto the platform. Further, the cloud gaming provider using CiiNow's software will be able to support game pads and other controllers to interact with the streamed games. CiiNow does not list specific latency numbers on its site, but claims that it is using a low latency H.264 video stream to send the gameplay down to users. It remains to be seen whether or not it will be able to match or exceed NVIDIA's GRID technology in that respect, however.
There are still a lot of questions about how CiiNOW's software will work, and whether it will advance cloud gaming in general. Fortunately, you should be able to get some answers soon as the company's software is now available to the public, and we should start to see some new cloud gaming providers popping up based on the virtualization technology. Reportedly, the company has completed several trial runs in Europe and has potential customers in the US, Korea, and Australia. CiiNow claims that it could take around two months from when a customer orders equipment before its cloud gaming service can go live, so the first fruits of CiiNow's labor might emerge by the end of this year.
There is a preview of a cloud gaming service up on CiiNOW's website, but no partners with plans to launch gaming services have been publicly announced yet.
In the video below, CiiNOW CEO Ron Haberman introduces the company's new cloud gaming platform.

AMD's server team is focusing on value now, performance in the future
Subject: General Tech | August 28, 2012 - 01:45 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: virtualization, Seoul, seamicro, opteron, Delhi, amd, Abu Dhabi
AMD recently compared the cost per virtual machine of two eight-core 2.9GHz Xeon E5-2690 processors with 256GB in each node against servers with two 16-core 2.7GHz Opteron 6284SE and only 128GB per node. Hyperthreading was enabled on the Intel machines so each box presented 64 threads to the VMmark test you can see below. AMD is hoping to highlight the difference in pricing, while they may perform about 25% slower than an Intel based server, they cost 30% less to purchase, which in racks costing $10,000 or more will add up to some significant savings. As well The Register talks about the future of AMD's servers, we know that the Abu Dhabi Opteron 6300s for two-socket and four-socket machines, the Seoul Opteron 4300s for two-socket and single-socket machines, and the Delhi Opteron 3300s for single-socket boxes will arrive staggered throughout this year and next, offering some new hope for AMD's processing power. They also touch on Seamicro and the interconnect technology AMD purchased which could see next generation Opterons working with FirePro cards to really start to offer something new from AMD which could be a big jump in performance compared to their current server offerings.
"It is not as much fun to be in the server part of Advanced Micro Devices these days, with Intel surging in the server racket and expanding out to switching and storage with its Xeon processors and Intel more or less counting the substantial innovations that AMD's engineers crafted for the Opterons a decade ago. The good news if you like a good fight is that there is a whole new management and engineering team at AMD now, and they not only understand that AMD has to do some serious innovating, but they are itching for the fight."

Comprehensive Ivy Bridge testing on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS
Subject: Processors | June 8, 2012 - 03:51 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: ubuntu, linux, Intel, Ivy Bridge, compiler, virtualization
Phoronix have been very busy lately, getting their heads around the functionality of Ivy Bridge on Linux and as these processor are much more compatible than their predecessors it has resulted in a lot of testing. The majority of the testing focused on the performance of GCC, LLVM/Clang, DragonEgg, PathScale EKOPath, and Open64 on an i7-3770K using a wide variety of programs and benchmarks. Their initial findings favoured GCC over all other compilers as in general it took top spot, with LLVM having issues with some of their tests. They then started to play around with the instruction sets the processor was allowed to use, by disabling some of the new features they could emulate how the Ivy Bridge processor would perform if it was from a previous generation of chips, good to judge the improvement of raw processing power. They finished up by testing its virtualization performance, with BareMetal, the Kernel-based Virtual Machine virtualization and Oracle VM VirtualBox. You can see how they compared right here.
"From an Intel Core i7 3770K "Ivy Bridge" system here is an 11-way compiler comparison to look at the performance of these popular code compilers on the latest-generation Intel hardware. Among the compilers being compared on Intel's Ivy Bridge platform are multiple releases of GCC, LLVM/Clang, DragonEgg, PathScale EKOPath, and Open64."

How efficiently do Intel and AMD's latest architectures handle virtualization on Ubuntu?
Subject: Processors | April 3, 2012 - 12:43 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: virtualization, ubuntu 12.04, Sandy Bridge E, Intel, FX 8150, Core i7 3960X, bulldozer, amd
Phoronix is taking the latest Ubuntu release and testing the performance on AMD's FX 8150 against Intel's Core-i7 3960X to see their relative performance in a virtual environment. Both machines had issues, Xen had critical issues which prevented it from running on the Bulldozer and ASUS motherboard system, while the Sandy Bridge chip had issues with Virtualbox. The testing was not so much a comparison of the performance difference between the two chips as it is a test of efficiency of these processors running tasks when virtualized. As both chips averaged 90%+ of base performance when virtualized you can see that both architectures have come a long way in this particular usage.
Also, keep your eyes out for a CPU review from Josh which should be arriving soon.
"With the upcoming availability of Ubuntu 12.04 "Precise Pangolin" being a Long-Term Support (LTS) release that will be quickly making its way into many enterprise environments, here's a look at the virtualization performance of this popular Linux distribution. In particular, being looked at is the Linux virtualization performance of KVM, Xen, and Oracle VirtualBox compared to bare metal when using Intel Sandy Bridge Extreme and AMD Bulldozer hardware."

LucidLogix Announces XLR8 Tech To Improve Embedded and SoC GPU Performance
Subject: General Tech, Mobile | January 11, 2012 - 03:48 AM | Tim Verry
Tagged: virtualization, tegra, Lucidlogix, gpu, gaming, game, embedded, CES2012, CES
Earlier today Lucid (LucidLogix), the company behind quite a few GPU virtualization technologies, announced yet another piece of GPU virtualization software. This time; however, instead of wrangling as much performance as possible from multi-GPU beasts, this technology- codenamed "XLR8"- is aimed at the mobile market of tablets, smartphones, and laptops with integrated graphics. Such products are powered by integrated GPUs in AMD's APUs and Intel's Sandy Bridge and Ivy Bridge processors, and by the GPUs in mobile SoCs (system on a chip) like Nvidia's Tegra and ARM's Mali graphics processors. XLR8 uses "unique CPU multithreading" to feed the mobile GPUs as efficiently as possible.
According to Lucid, many of the PC graphics issues are magnified when it comes to embedded GPUS including visual tearing, pipeline inefficiencies, power management, and artifacting. Offir Remez, president of Lucid further stated that most of the big, popular PC games have playability issues on mobile platforms and on computers with integrated graphics. "If it's got a GPU, we can improve the end user experience."
The company further expanded that the XLR8 technology works by disabling unnecessary and redundant processes in addition to "unique multithreading" to improve system (gaming) responsiveness up to 200 percent. The XLR8 software monitors battery drain and power draw while shutting down background processes to increase CPU frame generation and minimizing redundant GPU rendering processes.
If this sounds a lot like marketing speak, it certainly does. On the other hand, Lucid has been able to push some useful virtualization technology into desktops, so maybe mobile platforms are just the next step for the company. The company is currently demonstrating the XLR8 software in private at CES and is being tested by hardware partners. Mobile SoC are getting faster and more powerful, and on battery powered devices there is always room for efficiency improvements. Once reviewers manage to get their hands on some actual hardware, and XLR8 is past the concept/testing stage you can bet that people will have a better understanding of what exactly XLR8 is capable of.

Adam Nelson's speed
I am amazed at the athletic ability of these shot putters. People who think throwing from the spin is easy should try it by throwing something light. This guy Nelson has been hurt,but he might be one of the best athletes in all the sport. I'm betting he can break 11.00 in the 100meters and probably can dip under 4.4 in the 40. Does anybody know? I wish they would have a shot putters 50 meter dash just once.
Re: Adam Nelson's speed
Adam is a regular contributor to "The Ring" if you post it on there, more than likely he'll answer you!
Re: Adam Nelson's speed
I've seen him run a 4.6 40 at practice.
Re: Adam Nelson's speed
These are many times the football fullback & linebacker type of guys, not just the 'big' lineman type. They are tremndously athletic individuals (women as well). Oldtimers like me will remember Brian Oldfield racing the top women sprinters at big meets for entertainment over 50 yards. He usually won. I saw Brain last week while lifting weights at a local college where he was involved with a throwing camp. I had the opportunity to talk with him for a few minutes and brought this up. He laughed. Those who appreciate technique would like the shirt he was wearing. I had not seen one like it before. It read, "Friends don't let friends squat high!"

As the UK becomes the first country in the world to release Star Wars: The Complete Saga on Blu-ray, London will feel the Force like never before as droids, Stormtroopers, Jedi and the Sith invade the city in a week-long Star Wars spectacular culminating in the galactic transformation of the BT Tower into the World's Largest Lightsaber.
The week commenced with a rude awakening from the Dark Side, as Darth Vader and a sinister fleet of Stormtroopers took to the streets in an Imperial March that will sent shivers down the spines of Londoners. The march began at St. James' Park where they joined Changing of the Guards activities, before proceeding to HMV on Oxford Street to meet shoppers as they queued to get their hands on the highly anticipated Blu-ray release.
Star Wars actor Anthony Daniels (C-3PO in all six episodes) provided a lighter touch on Tuesday 13 September as he met fans at the grand opening of the HMV at the new Westfield Shopping Centre in Stratford, signing copies of Star Wars: The Complete Saga on Blu-ray.
On Thursday 15 September, from inside the exclusive star-studded launch party at the top of the BT Tower, Daniels will press a button lighting up the London skyline for one night only as it morphs into a Jedi Knight's elegant weapon of choice, projecting a giant 'blue ray' of light from the top of the tower.
In the words of Darth Vader himself, "This will be a day long remembered" by Star Wars fans in the UK and across the world.

Coastal Programs
Since its creation by Captain Cousteau in 1974, The Cousteau Society has devoted particular attention to the balance between Man and Nature on the world's shorelines.
In spite of this, coastal areas, which act as an interface between marine and terrestrial habitats, are being increasingly subjected to the pressure caused by human activities and are now even more threatened by the consequences of climate change. This has led to the degradation of coastal areas, depriving Present and Future Generations of environmental assets that contribute to their quality of life and to local development.
In the 90's, following the Rio Conference, the concept of "integrated management of coastal areas" was considered essential and many projects based on scientific and legal studies were tested at all levels. Despite these initiatives, the world's shorelines continue to deteriorate. Concerned by this development, The Cousteau Society wants to make its own contribution. As such, it has decided to implement a campaign that is aimed specifically at coastal habitats.
Figures below illustrate how important are the coastal zones, for human population and natural environment alike:
60% of the world human population lives less then 60 km away from a coast
2/3rd of the cities with more than 2.5 millions inhabitants are close to an estuarian area
75% of the fish species are dependant of coastal areas in their life cycle
1/3rd of the world coastal regions are at high risk of degradation.
Cousteau Coastal Programs are aiming at sustainable development of the coastal areas with current projects in Integrated Coastal Zone Management (ICZM), the Jacques Cousteau observatory in Mexico and the restoration of Easter Island forest ecosystem.

Long ago, I read A Child Called It. The author´s twisted, sick mom could turn on the charm for the authorities when they questioned her.Social workers like to believe they improve people´s lives and help them. I don´t think some of them realize that abusive parents are criminals (because child abuse is against the law, after all), and criminals can be sociopaths. These workers like to believe they´re making a difference instead of being manipulated, but too often, they´re just being manipulated by some evil people who should not be anywhere near their children, or any children, for that matter.This is probably what happened in Ms. Greene´s case. Someone in the social work field thought they were making progress with her and leaving her victims to live with her was a positive thing.
