Sanchez makes Rockies debut vs. D-backs
Sanchez, who was acquired in a trade with the Royals for Jeremy Guthrie on Friday, will make his first start for the Rockies in Monday's series opener against the D-backs at Chase Field.
The lefty is no stranger to the National League West, having played for the Giants from 2006-11, before being traded to the Royals. The American League wasn't kind to Sanchez, as he went 1-6 with a 7.76 ERA and struggled with command, walking more batters (44) than he struck out (36) in 53 1/3 innings.
"If there is a next step that he can ascend, to take him to a different level, it's throwing more strikes than he has," Rockies manager Jim Tracy said after the trade. "It'll be interesting to see in relation to the format, how he gravitates to that."
If Sanchez again struggles with walks, it could make for a rough return to the NL West against an Arizona team that has not only won six straight games at Chase Field, but has been on a tear of late, winning four of its last five games overall. The D-backs have scored 9.4 runs per contest in those five games.
During the D-backs' weekend sweep of the Astros, Arizona scored 33 runs while also going 19-for-39 (.487) with runners in scoring position -- something the D-backs will look to continue against the Rockies.
"Just getting better pitches and laying off the marginal pitches," D-backs manager Kirk Gibson said. "As a hitter, when you get runners in scoring position, you can kind of suffer from anxiousness and it can work against you, because you want to get the guy in. In those situations you want to have a good approach, try to use the middle of the field and not get too greedy.
"The most important thing is getting a good pitch. We've done a better job at laying off the pitches that are in the zone that aren't in our strengths."
Rockies: Pomeranz expected to miss next start
Lefty Drew Pomeranz will likely have his Tuesday start pushed back, Tracy said Sunday. Pomeranz experienced soreness in his left arm during his start Friday.
"I don't know that [a Tuesday start] is a possibility just yet," Tracy said. "He's going to play catch tomorrow in Arizona to determine the extent. Is it just a push-back or is it anything else?"
It is unclear whether the Rockies will turn to righty Carlos Torres or call up a pitcher from the Minors to take the mound Tuesday against the D-backs.
D-backs: Kennedy starts series opener
Right-hander Ian Kennedy is scheduled to take the mound Monday against the Rockies. He is coming off one of his best starts of the season, an eight-inning effort against the Reds during which he allowed just one run while striking out seven.
Kennedy is 2-1 with a 2.77 ERA in nine career starts against the Rockies. He last faced Colorado on June 5, when he threw six shutout innings and struck out a season-high 12 batters.
Worth noting
The season series between Arizona and Colorado is tied at 4-4. The Rockies dropped two of three at Chase Field in early June.

He starts out as the Cedric we all know and hate- giving useless advice, being scared of everything and generally getting on Grahams nerves (until he finally snaps and orders him to show some backbone and be useful, or else he'll leave him behind to die and defeat Mordack on his own)- but as time goes on he gets more brave (especially once they reach Harpie Island, where he actually tries to fight back against the harpies. He fails when it barely does anything and they gang upon him, but props for trying anyway!) and helps out Graham whenever he needs it. By the time they reach Mordacks castle, he's just as brave as Graham, and surprisingly doesn't die from Mordacks magic blast (badly wounded, but not killed), instead it being the poison of the Flying Sting (the blue creature that Mordack first turns into) that kills him. By then, he and Graham had become good friends, and Graham actually feels a bit sorry for him. If this were earlier in the story, Graham would have probably either been overjoyed or not care that Cedric was gone.
an idea on this (though I see from the other thread that you've started the fanfiction anyways ): Cedric can still act as guide and Graham can still solve all of the puzzles or most of them... the point of the story would be to see Cedric grow and learn from Graham and then (I imagine) use those lessons that he learned to save Graham in the final confrontation with Mordack (so he uses his wits and the problem-solving skills he's learned from watching Graham to make his own way into the castle after initially not coming along, rather than simply having found the courage to follow along).
i'm wondering about that scene when they get to Mordacks island actually. Should I make it so as they argue and it ends with Graham saying "FINE! I don't need you, I'm going in alone! Goodbye!" and he leaves Cedric outside. Or should it just be a situation of, "Hey, Graham! Lets split up, so we cover more ground. I think I have a plan..."?Which sounds better?
And, is it just me or have I been lying to you? I said that Cedric would start out as "the Cedric we all know and hate" by making him annoy Graham. But... to me, he doesn't seem all that annoying at all! Not confident and probably overtly cautious, but not necessarily annoying per se.
One door, but maaaany passageways! It'd be easy to get lost in there for both of them, I think. Maybe Cedric runs off, or Graham snaps at him and then he runs off.
This is true, but somehow, I don't see human-Cedric going: "LOOK OUT!! A POIsonous snake!!" (Oh, incidentally, the blockage to access to the mountains will have to be something else in your story!!--Cedric theoretically has spells that he will use later which would beg the question: "but why didn't they just use that on the snake?")

Friday, 19 October 2012
WINNERS: CPUT students won the Mission Idea Contest (MIC) for Micro and Nano Satellites
Spirits are high at the French South African Institute of Technology (F'SATI) after students from this institute scooped the coveted Mission Idea Contest (MIC) for Micro and Nano Satellites Utilisation in Nagoya, Japan.
The MIC is an international competition that encourages the innovative exploitation of satellites to provide useful capabilities, services or data. It is organised by the University Space Engineering Consortium (UNISEC) in Japan, and sponsored by the University of Tokyo.
The winners are part of F'SATI's Satellite Systems Engineering Programme. They entered Category 2 (Mission Idea and Business Model) of the MIC with a project titled 'Underground and surface water detection and monitoring using a micro-satellite'. The proposed mission was designed to address the dire need for managing fresh water resources in Africa.
Morné Roman, a recent CPUT MTech graduate in the program, presented the project at the competition during the UN/Japan Nano-Satellite Symposium on 10 October 2012.
More than 70 entries were received in the competition. The other members of the team are Messrs Ayokunle Ayeleso, Matthew Sibanda, Paul Bayendang, Kelvin Gomo, Khaya Dwaza, Craig Olivier and Fenni Shidhika.
"This is truly a remarkable achievement, not only for me, but also for F'SATI, CPUT and the entire African continent. I hope that our mission idea will not remain an idea only, but that it will be implemented as access to water is a very pressing problem in Africa", said Roman.
F'SATI Deputy Director Prof Robert Van Zyl represented South African Space Scientists at the Symposium after being nominated by the Department of Science and Technology.

The Radio announce new Dublin date
The Radio are to continue flexing their live muscles in March.
The Hot Press Newsdesk, 18 Feb 2008
The melodic female-fronted indie-poppers will be in Whelan's on the 6th of the month.
The band's new single 'Bruised From Kisses' also hits the airwaves this month, taken from last year's accomplished sophomore effort Charm Offensive.

If you have a sweet tooth for pop, then look no further than The Radio. Behind the melodies, though, is a story of struggle and redemption.
Interview: 2007-08-23
Singer Stephen M's past in Rollerskate Skinny is nearly always referred to in articles about The Radio. And now the band have something else to add to their biog: the inclusion of 'Whatever Gets You Through Today' on the Grey's Anatomy soundtrack. The Radio's second single 'Manmade' from their second album Charm Offensive is a fantastic upbeat song, and should repeat the commercial success of 'Whatever...'.

2007-05-24 - News
The common view is that making throwaway pop music is a piece of cake, which is probably right unless you're looking to produce something that will stand the test of time beyond two and a half minutes. The Radio fall into that trap, clearly trying to come up with something both light and substantial but 'One Of Two Ways' is just too flimsy, not helped by a complete lack of bottom end to the production.
The Radio look a lot more compelling and fully-formed than they sound. There's those four axe-wielders strung across the front of the stage, clad all in black, along with two stunning female singers, flanked by two slightly more intense fellas. Visually, it's intriguing. But tonight's performance lacks both the conviction and sense of implacable cool necessary to provide the look with the correct context.
This is the first release from The Radio since their debut album Kindness in 2004. The title track 'Satellite' is an upbeat tune featuring the signature breathy female vocals that characterise their songs. Gentle harmonies and a catchy melody layered over a punchy beat make this a lovely summer track. In places, particularly on their more subdued tracks, they sound a lot like American quirky rock outfit The Eels, minus the underlying darkness. The Radio make subtly pretty songs and can really shine when they want to, as the title track on this EP demonstrates.
The Radio underline their 'next big thing' credentials with an EP and free - yes, free - show.

Frequently Asked Questions / Cancer Resources / Brown Bag Chat
Last Modified: May 7, 2012
I had a consult with a radiation doctor for esophageal cancer. He said I need a feeding tube. That seemed kind of premature to me- do I really need that?
Liz Prechtel-Dunphy, Oncology Nurse Practitioner at Penn Medicine, responds:
Feeding tubes are important in patients with esophageal cancer whether they are getting single modality radiation or chemo-radiation. Often times patients experience esophagitis as a result of the treatment whether that be radiation therapy alone or chemo-radiation that prevents them from receiving adequate nutrition, hydration and maintaining their weight during the course of therapy.
Katrina Claghorn, Registered Dietician at Penn Medicine, adds:
You should ask your doctor why he felt you needed the feeding tube and what type of feeding tube he recommends.
Some surgeons place a feeding tube into the small intestine during surgery because they are concerned that it will be difficult for the patient to meet his nutritional needs with a smaller stomach. In addition if the patient will be receiving chemotherapy or radiation therapy, which may further limit their ability to eat enough, a feeding tube may be beneficial since it will help them meet their nutritional goal.
Sometimes a tube into the stomach is placed if the patient isn't going to have surgery. This type of tube, called a PEG, would have the same purpose to help the patient meet their nutritional needs when receiving treatment.
The reason a feeding tube is suggested prior to treatment is that it may be more difficult to place the feeding tube once treatment has started.
So find out why your doctor is suggesting the tube and request a meeting with a Registered Dietitian who can answer your questions about what to expect with the feeding tube.

Implements the synthetic control group method for comparative case studies developed in Abadie and Gardeazabal (2003) and Abadie, Diamond, and Hainmueller (2010). The synthetic control method allows for effect estimation in settings where a single unit (a state, country, firm, etc.) is exposed to an event or intervention. It provides a data-driven procedure to construct synthetic control units based on a weighted combination of comparison units that approximates the characteristics of the unit that is exposed to the intervention. A combination of comparison units often provides a better comparison for the unit exposed to the intervention than any comparison unit alone.

Wow... and considering how expensive it used to be. Can anyone venture a guess as to why they would do this?
My guess is that the desktop version did not generate enough revenue. As far as I can tell, the mobile (iPhone) versions will still need to be purchased, which is a reasonable business model (this is similar to Unity3d, for instance).
This is just a guess, but I wouldn't be surprised if new SKUs were to be released, with different features and capabilities.
I guess would be a revenue issue but also trouble to follow the technology progresses (Stock at OpenGL 3.2 and OpenGL ES 1.1, OpenCL announced but not release) and maybe a take over by the Khronos Group even if Graphic Remedy would continue to develop this tool.
Also the development of glslDevil is stopped (well there is still some sort of maintenance) I would really enjoy to see this tool becoming open source and see what happen.
We need some good tools!
Good News!
Das somebody know how to activate the downloadable version with the free licence? I don't know where to copy the .grl file...
Ahh, never mind! There's a Licence Manager Tool where you specify the licence file :-)
It's great that it got released but it's actually not very good with the newer versions of opengl 3.2 and above. I have a deffered rendering app running that's just a few simple objects and it can't catch the texture data from my fbo. Also I set up a simple cube texture and it basically tells me that the format I picked for it is probably not valid so it gives me garbage while the other parts ones just say unknown.
It also says the glBindTexture is deprecated?
I don't think it plays well with gl3.2 and above (I'm using opengl 3.3 and it didn't say it supported it). You can change the context so I think it's at least perfect with opengl 3.1 and below versions not really 3.2 and above.
The one thing that I can at least count on is that the analyzing of the opengl functions I use works no problems.
by the way I wasn't paying to much attention when opengl 3.0 - 3.1 was the highest was glBindTexture really deprecated at that time?
the truth is I think I may not have messed with it enough so maybe I'm missing something.
No.was glBindTexture really deprecated at that time?
sorry I meant glBindBuffer but I looked at the prev spec and no it's not supposed to be either.
Edit: actually it thinks it's deprecated because I bind a TBO.
Will be interesting to see what the new business model is. I did receive a note from Graphic Remedy last week stating that the next version (5.8) "is going to be a FREE version!" Hard to see them being excited if they were canning the product. So could be they plan to make gDEBugger 5.7/5.8 (with GL 3.2 support) free, but then any GL support beyond that or fixes to that (i.e. future versions) you need to pay for to help support that effort. A good way to get people hooked IMO. It's a good product, and Graphic Remedy is responsive to support e-mails.
Would have been nice to play with this, but alas, I can't.
Anyone else with a AMD 6850 card had any luck with this program ? It does a instant crash when you try running it.

ITHACA, N.Y. - It's on to the the Ivy League tournament for the Cornell Big Red, and they'll have to play once again without star attackman Rob Pannell. The senior is still rehabbing from a foot injury and has been ruled out for the conference tournament.
The Big Red will take on Yale in the semis on Friday at Princeton. Cornell previously beat the Bulldogs 8-7 earlier in the year. They'll face-off at 5 PM.

Amazon to ship 10-inch Kindle Fire before June, places order with Foxconn
Digitaltrends reports that Amazon placed an ODM order with Foxconn for a 10-inch tablet, which will sell before summer. ODM stands for Original Design Manufacturer, and refers to a strategy where the manufacturer handles both the design process and production, then hands the final product over to partners for branding.
Amazon did fairly well with the 7-inch Kindle Fire, selling roughly 3.9 million units since November last year. By moving such an unprecedented volume, Amazon managed to spring second only to the iPad completely smashing sales figures of other Android devices.
Success didn't come for free, the Kindle Fire sells at $199, which iSuppli estimates to be a couple dollars under production costs. The company chose to make healthy profits on the back-end instead, by essentially giving Kindle owners a hot-line to Amazon content services, such as the Kindle bookstore, Amazon MP3 and Instant Video.
With a 10-inch Amazon tablet priced in a similar fashion, the company stands every chance to give a hard time to Apple's current tablet lineup, but definitely not among the more demanding, savvy consumers. Apple's rumored iPad 3 release might dampen some of the damage the new Amazon tablet will do to its market share figures, but with its more competitive cost structure Amazon can scoop up cost-sensitive buyers and turn them into long-term customers.
As far as other Android tablets go, Samsung and Asus will have to re-think their tablet strategy or settle with manufacturing for the premium segment, where the initial unit price hardly sways decisions. Asus has already taken steps so that it doesn't happen. We'll see if a cheaper Transformer cuts Kindle Fire's rampage in the value segment short.
A 10-inch tablet from Amazon is bound to reshape the cheap tablet landscape completely, and have a profound effect on other Android tablet makers as well. Apple seems to be safe for now, especially if retina-display rumors and the early-March release date are to be believed about the iPad 3.

Skin care
23 Worst Anti-Aging Skin Care Products
Readers say these anti-aging skin care products are just expensive moisturizers (at best) -- ouch
No. 17: Ole Henriksen Truth Serum Collagen Booster, $42
TotalBeauty.com average member rating: 5.8*Why: Women say, "what a hoax. The last thing I wanted was an expensive product that made me break out. That's exactly what I got with this. It moisturized, I guess, but other than that [it] just gave me crappy skin. NO THANK YOU. I'm so mad at this stuff, I can't even talk anymore." Another reader says it "felt great upon application but after about half-a-week I started to get a splotchy, red, rash-like patch on my face." Another explains, "this has an awesome smell and when you try it in the store you will for sure want to put this on your face and wait for good skin to surface, but alas it is a waste of time and a good smell does not refine the skin at all or brighten it."

I'm pretty sure Bruce Willis lied to me, and I'm pretty sure I liked it. He made me feel that the two of us--men equipped with a certain tough cynicism, men who know that this whole celebrity machine is overblown, men, damn it, who have lived--could be straight with each other. When Willis, who was in Alcoholics Anonymous and now occasionally drinks, began to rave about the dangers of booze (perhaps provoked by my repeated references to his 1980s Seagram's wine-cooler commercials), and I countered with a question about a YouTube video of him looking a little plowed at a recent Nets playoff game, he smiled. He paused. And then he said, "Jet-lagged." Yes, I thought, dude was jet-lagged. I've been jet-lagged and mocked Cybill Shepherd and cursed on national TV. Almost.
"Sometimes I overestimate my ability to function under duress with less than enough sleep. We all have trouble sleeping. Do you have trouble sleeping?" And then Willis moves on to something else, and I think that, maybe, actually, Bruce Willis knows that I know he might be lying, and he respects me enough not to pretend he's not. We're both men who understand that I have to ask him something that requires a lie, and he has to deliver that lie.
That's the thing about watching Bruce Willis act: it's not just that he's so incredibly cool--it's that he makes you feel like you're cool too. Unlike George Bush's, his smirk is inclusive, a charming plea for forgiveness for being a tough guy. He is the bouncer who listens to you and smiles as he's tossing you from the bar.
He made audiences feel cool as the fast-talking, smart-alec private eye David Addison in Moonlighting. He did it in three Die Hards, Pulp Fiction, Sin City and somehow in that movie where he puts words in a baby's mouth. Can he still make us feel cool in Live Free or Die Hard, the fourth installment of the action series about a normal NYPD cop who always finds himself in the middle of absurdly dangerous terrorist plots? "I'm a gambling man by nature," Willis says of returning to a franchise that started in 1988 and had its last installment 12 years ago. He admits that the second and third Die Hards were not great but says this one takes a retro action-movie plot (it's pretty much WarGames meets WarGames) and makes it look contemporary. This isn't last year's Rocky movie, a wrap-up story about an old man. This is full-on, action-hero bombast.
So the risks weren't just that the movie would be bad, or that a 52-year-old man would look silly jumping and diving, but that no one would care, that action movies are the westerns of our day, a product of '80s American supremacy that can't be resuscitated. Also, the risk was that Willis would break something on his body. "They played a Jedi mind trick on me and said, You're getting older and shouldn't do your own stunts, so of course I did my own stunts," he said. He shows me, after some prodding, the spot near the bridge of his nose where he got 28 stitches after getting kicked in the head. "I just rubbed dirt on it and kept going," he said, smirking. Really? "Yeah, just rubbed some dirt on it." Seriously? He raises one eyebrow, either amused or disappointed or both. "No."
He's a little bit like the older brother, the alpha male who defends by playfully attacking. Early in the new film, there's a scene in which Willis yanks a guy out of a parked car for trying to get to second base with a college student. She yells at Willis' character for intervening, calling him John. He tells her that he hates when she calls him that. So she calls him Dad. It's kind of creepy, the fun we're supposed to be having assuming a college kid is his girlfriend, and it gets one to thinking about Willis' dating life. When I ask him about it, he turns the question on me so that I'm the creep: "That thought never crossed my mind--of asking Mary Elizabeth Winstead on a date. No one has come up with that question. That's good. I'll tell her you asked about that." I let out a little embarrassed giggle because it even feels cool to be made fun of by Bruce Willis.
"Bruce Willis is a pimp, dude," says Kevin Smith, the writer-producer who plays one of the villains in the movie and was such a fan growing up that he had Willis' pop-blues album, The Return of Bruno, in his car's cassette player at all times. "Bruce Willis made me start drinking. I'm not a fan of alcohol. But when Bruce Willis sings about golden wine coolers, you have to get your drink on. I showed up at parties with Seagram's wine coolers, and people would say, 'What are you, crazy? We have a keg. We have vodka.' But no. I'm Bruce Willis smooth."
It's that coolness that lets Willis walk away, John McClane--like, from disasters that might have destroyed other careers: Hudson Hawk. Talking-baby movies. Movies with Matthew Perry in them. Investing in Planet Hollywood. Giving his kids odd names. Endorsing George Bush. People just don't abandon Bruce Willis. Despite the cuffed Levi's 501 blues he stills wears, he somehow stays with the times--Pulp Fiction, Friends, the Beavis and Butt-head movie, Sin City. It's because he never put himself on a different level from us. "Could you ever picture yourself hanging out with Sylvester Stallone? Could you picture hanging out with Arnold Schwarzenegger? No," says Smith. "But you could with Bruce Willis. He acts like your friends. He talks like your friends."
And he's like that all the time. "He's so relaxed on the set," says Timothy Olyphant, who plays the main villain in the new movie. "It was one of those sets where you can feel the money flying out the window and you feel the pressure of it all. And he was like, 'Settle down. Just get this right.' He gave me a great deal of confidence."
Smith concurs. He tells a story he has told before about when Willis, a producer on the film, had Smith rewrite a scene he was in to remove some of the exposition. The studio wanted to discuss their objections to the rewrite. "I was there when he made that call," says Smith. "He was talking to some higher-up muckity-muck at the studio. He kept saying, 'Uh-huh, uh-huh.' And then he said, 'Let me ask you this: Who is your second choice to play John McClane? Thought so.' And then he hung up. It was just as cool as that."
Willis, of course, tells me, grinning, that that's just an "anecdote" and that Smith is a "storyteller" and that he and I, we know it's not true. And right then, that story is no longer true.
I believe Willis when he tells me that it doesn't matter to him that this is the first Die Hard that's not rated R, but even I can tell that it bums him out a little. "It's hard to do one of these without cursing," he says of portraying a character associated with one exuberantly vulgar catchphrase. "But if that's your criteria for seeing a movie, counseling may be in order."
