ACO approves performance balancing
|By Matt Beer
|Wednesday, December 22nd 2010, 12:58 GMT
Le Mans organiser the Automobile Club de l'Ouest has confirmed that in 2011 it will be able to adjust the rules during the course of its championships' seasons to prevent any type of car becoming too dominant.
The 'article 19' rule will apply to the new Intercontinental Le Mans Cup, Le Mans Series and American Le Mans Series, and is aimed to solve the long-running issue of petrol-powered cars being unable to compete with the diesel technology that Audi and Peugeot have introduced since 2006. The new regulations intend to keep the top petrol and diesel teams within two per cent of each other's pace.
A statement from the ACO promised the introduction of: "Performance adjustment through the application of article 19 [the ACO reserves itself the possibility of balancing performances between the different engines and technologies] as well as the two per cent rule.
"This means keeping the lap times of the quickest cars in each technology within a range of two per cent in relation to the quickest car, all technologies combined, through decisions taken by the ACO."
The official green light for the rule change will be welcomed by Aston Martin Racing, which has committed to an all-new petrol LMP1 car in the expectation that the regulations would give petrol machinery a chance to fight for outright victory in the 24-hour race again after five seasons of diesel dominance.
In other 2011 adjustments confirmed by the ACO, LMP2 becomes a fully-fledged 'pro-am' category across all the Le Mans championships, with at least one gentleman driver - as assessed under the ACO's driver categorisation - mandatory in each car's line-up.
The GT classes are also being restructured into a single GTE category, split into GTE Am and GTE Pro. The amateur class must include a gentleman driver in each entry, and cars must be at least a year old, whereas GTE Pro is unrestricted, but will feature performance balancing.

Rosberg: Relations with Lewis will improve
– Nico Rosberg believes his relationship with Mercedes team-mate Lewis Hamilton will improve despite what happened in Monaco.Rosberg re-took the lead in the battle for the 2014 Formula 1 Drivers' Championship following his victory on Sunday. However, Hamilton was still deeply unhappy with the way the German had taken pole position the previous day and while cleared by the stewards, the Briton remained convinced his rival had gone off on purpose in the final part of qualifying, telling reporters they 'are not friends' but 'colleagues'."We discuss the issues and we have already discussed them and it will again be better and it will be forgotten," Rosberg told a news...

National No. 1 singles shuttler Lee Chong Wei hopes his team-mates will not fear their opponents when they step onto the court during the Thomas Cup tournament next week. - Filepic
PETALING JAYA: Half the battle is already lost if an athlete is fearful of his opponent.
Malaysia's top singles player Lee Chong Wei does not want his team-mates bringing this mentality to court when the Thomas Cup Finals begins this weekend in New Delhi.
As the current world number one, Chong Wei will be relied heavily upon to deliver a point but it is just as important for his singles team-mates to play their part if Malaysia are to avoid going out at the quarter-final stage again.
Malaysia fell 0-3 to China in the quarter-finals in Wuhan two years ago.
This year, Malaysia are pitted against 2012 losing finalist South Korea, Germany and hosts India in Group C. The top two teams of each group will advance to the knockout stages, but Malaysia will need to top the group in order to avoid the seeded teams in the quarter-finals.
A fresh draw will be made for the eight teams who make it to the quarter-finals.
The onus is on either captain Liew Daren, Chong Wei Feng or Goh Soon Huat to back Chong Wei in the singles department if they are fielded.
The doubles players bound for New Delhi are Tan Boon Heong, Chan Peng Soon, Goh V Shem, Hoon Thien How, Lim Khim Wah and Tan Wee Kiong.
"We have been training for some time and I don't want them to be afraid of their opponents.
"They have nothing to lose. It will be a shame if they lose the match because they give too much respect to their opponents and are unable to play to their real ability.
"We have experts helping everyone deal with the psychological side after we finish training.
"We also go through the videos of our expected opponents.
"The preparations are going well so far," said Chong Wei, who made his Thomas Cup debut in Jakarta in 2004.
On his part, Chong Wei is determined to get his team off to a good start by winning the first singles matches.
"It will be very helpful for my team-mates. It lessens the pressure on them if I get the first point and whoever plays the second singles will be calmer."
Indonesia, the most successful nation at the Thomas Cup with 13 titles to their name, are in Group A with Thailand, Nigeria and Singapore while Group B pits Denmark against Japan, Hong Kong and England.
Group D have defending champions China up against Taiwan, Russia and France.

Death of 'sweetest, kindest, most angelic soul'
Model Steenkamp was committed to empowering women
- Image Credit: AP
- South African Olympic athlete Oscar Pistorius and Reeva Steenkamp, believed to be his girlfriend, at an awards ceremony, in Johannesburg, South Africa in 2012.
Johannesburg: The woman shot dead in double-amputee Olympian runner Oscar Pistorius' house was a model, a law school graduate and an entrepreneur committed to empowering women.
Reeva Steenkamp was to give an inspirational talk on Thursday at a Johannesburg school.
Steenkamp had become a celebrity in her own right, said publicist Sarit Tomlinson. She was one of FHM magazine's 100 Sexiest Women in the World for two years running, appeared in international and South African advertisements and was a celebrity contestant on Tropika Island of Treasure, filmed in Jamaica. She was also the South African face of Avon cosmetics.
The freckled blonde who appeared in scanty bikinis on magazine covers and sashayed down the world's fashion ramps was "continuously breaking the model stereotype," said Tomlinson.
Steenkamp was "the sweetest, kindest, just angelic soul" and at the same time "a very inspiring individual, very passionate about speaking about women and empowerment."
Police said she was shot by four bullets in the early hours of Valentine Day. They said only Steenkamp and Pistorius were at his house in a gated complex in Pretoria, the capital. Police have arrested Pistorius on a charge of murder and said he will appear in court on Friday. The two had been dating for a few months.
Scores of tributes were posted online. Her publicist said Steenkamp was 29 but police said she was 30.
On Thursday morning, Steenkamp had been scheduled to give a motivational speech to school students in Johannesburg. "It was about empowerment and inspiration and what inspires you and how to follow your dreams," said Tomlinson, who had Steenkamp's notes for the speech.
On Twitter, Steenkamp tweeted messages urging women to stand up against rape as well as her excitement about Valentine's Day.
"What do you have up your sleeve for your love tomorrow?" she tweeted. "It should be a day of love for everyone."
Her last tweet was an enthusiastic acceptance of a friend's invitation to celebrate the day with chocolate cupcakes topped with red hearts.
She also used her Twitter account to encourage her thousands of followers to fight sexual abuse.
"WEAR BLACK THIS FRIDAY IN SUPPORT AGAINST #RAPE," she re-tweeted just hours before she died.
Steenkamp urged followers to stand up against violence against women, tweeting four days ago as South Africa was outraged by the particularly brutal rape and murder of a 17-year-old: "I woke up in a happy safe home this morning. Not everyone did. Speak out against the rape of individuals in SA [South Africa]. RIP Anene Booysen #rape #crime #sayNO."

Make Sure Alexander Is Not Alone This Holiday Season
Your contributions to Alexander's journal this year made sure that they never felt alone. Your tax-deductible donation in Alexander's honor will make sure that Caringbridge continues to bring hope and healing to those who need it most.
By Jayme/Nicki Veenstra Crew — Nov 6, 2013 9:14am
I am so happy to know that Alexander came through this. I hear these stories and they break my heart. These companies don't think twice about the chemicals and toxins that they are putting out there and unknowing children are the ones to pay the price. I still pray for you and think of you so often. I hope your family finds healthier and safer ways to live like I did. You and Alexander, all of you deserve it!! LuvNHugz-SupportNPrayerz from Iowa

text: Formula 1 noses could get even uglier in 2014 26 February, 2014 Formula 1's ugly face of 2014 could get uglier still, according to Auto Motor und Sport, claiming that F1 engineers are looking into nose solutions for the new rules that are even less attractive than those already used during testing. With the 'gentleman's appendage', asymmetrical and 'vacuum cleaner'-style noses already in action, respected correspondent Michael Schmidt said that some all-new solutions could be seen as early as this week at the final Bahrain test. "(In the wind tunnel) we are trying every kind of nose that is in circulation," admitted Force India Technical Boss Andy Green. Schmidt concluded: "If that is the case for Force India, then the big teams will be doing even more." It is likely Lotus' unique, double-tusk solution is causing the most head-scratching among rival teams, with many perhaps not having initially considered the idea of utilising the concept of asymmetry. "Our spies tell us that some teams are considering 'anteater' noses that do not grow from the middle of the car, but to the left or to the right," said Schmidt. (GMM) Subbed by AJN.

Product description
2 Books in 1! - Q&A Course Review - NCLEX(R) prep Master the fundamentals of nursing while honing your critical thinking and test-taking skills. Completely revised and updated, the 3rd Edition of this popular resource features more than 1,200 classroom-tested, NCLEX-style questions that reflect the latest advances in medical technology as well as the most recent guidelines and standards of care for nursing practice. An easy-to-follow format organizes information into 24 content areas. Each question provides answers and rationales for correct and incorrect responses and strategies for how to develop your critical thinking skills. For an interactive approach, use the BONUS CD-ROM with two, 75 question course exit exams. "I honestly feel that every incoming student nurse should have a copy of the Fundamentals Success book because it familiarizes students with what their fundamental tests will be like. Who wouldn't benefit from knowing what their test is going to look like? Being prepared with Fundamentals Success meant I hit the ground running. I aced my first test when most of my classmates were facing their first ever academic failures. Nursing school is nothing like anything I have ever done before, memorizing text books will do little to prepare you to be a critical thinker. To succeed you must be able to apply the knowledge in multi-step process...the nursing process! The FA Davis books take you there and they do it quickly, because we nursing students needed to know it yesterday!" - Corrie Cyre, Hillsborough Community College Southshore Student Nurses Association President Click Here for a Special Mail-In Rebate Offer

Hi, Robert. We've communicated before, I believe. I had forgotten I'd posted here. I do have that info on my great grandfather, Valentin. I have much on Valentin. I've been researching his family in the Krasic church records. I've found more on Petar and Mara but nothing about Petar moving to Argentina. Still trying to prove that. I understand that Kovacic's are listed in the Argentinian telephone records. I haven't followed up on those leads yet. I was hoping to find passenger lists from Croatia or a nearby port to Argentina that would have him listed. Thanks for your help!

In our previous article we discussed the hardware supported features of some of the high-end network adapters. Let's take a look how you can use some of those settings to their best advantage. Remember that the correct settings depend on the network adapter, your workload, the resources of the host computer, and of course your performance goals.
Enabling Offload Features
Turning on network adapter offload features typically will benefit performance.However, sometimes the network adapter might not be powerful enough to handle the offload capabilities with high throughput. For example, enabling segmentation offload can reduce the maximum sustainable throughput on some network adapters because of limited hardware resources. However, if the reduced throughput is not expected to be a limitation, you should enable offload capabilities, even for those network adapters. Some network adapters require offload features to be independently enabled for send and receive paths.
Enabling RSS for Web Scenarios
RSS can improve web scalability and performance if you have fewer network adapters than logical processors in your server. When all the web traffic is going through the RSS-capable network adapters, incoming web requests from different connections can be simultaneously processed across different CPUs. Because of the logic in RSS and HTTP for load distribution, performance can be degraded if a non-RSS-capable network adapter accepts web traffic on a server that has one or more RSS-capable network adapters. It is recommended that you use RSS-capable network adapters or disable RSS from the Advanced Properties tab. To determine whether a network adapter is RSS-capable, view the RSS information on the Advanced Properties tab for the device.
RSS Profiles and RSS Queues
RSS Profiles are new in Windows Server 2012. The default profile is NUMA Static, which changes the default behavior from previous versions of Windows. We suggest reviewing the available profiles and understanding when they are beneficial. For example, you can use Task Manager to examine if your logical processors is underutilized for receive traffic, and try increasing the number of RSS queues from the default of 2 to the maximum that your network adapter supports. Changing the number of RSS queues is an option your network adapter may have as part of the driver.
Increasing Network Adapter Resources
For network adapters that allow manual configuration of resources, such as receive and send buffers, you should increase the allocated resources. Some network adapters set their receive buffers low to conserve allocated memory from the host. The low value results in dropped packets and decreased performance. Therefore, for receive-intensive scenarios, it is recommended to increase the receive buffer value to the maximum. If your adapter does not supports or exposes manual configuration, it most likely dynamically configures the resources, or it might be a fixed value that you can't change.
To control interrupt moderation, some network adapters expose different interrupt moderation levels, buffer coalescing parameters (sometimes separately for send and receive buffers), or both. You should consider interrupt moderation for CPU-bound workloads, and consider the trade-off between the host CPU savings and latency versus the increased host CPU savings because of more interrupts and less latency. If the network adapter does not perform interrupt moderation, but it does expose buffer coalescing, increasing the number of coalesced buffers allows more buffers per send or receive, which improves performance.
Your network adapter has a number of options to optimize latency caused by the operating system. This latency is the time between the network driver processing an incoming packet and the sending it back, and is usually measured in microseconds. As a comparison, the transmission time for packets transmitted over long distances is usually expressed in milliseconds. This tuning will not reduce the time a packet spends in transit.
Some tuning suggestions for microsecond-sensitive networks include:
· Set the computer BIOS to High Performance, with C-states disabled. However, this is system and BIOS dependent. Some systems provide higher performance if the operating system controls power management. You can check and adjust your power management settings from the Control Panel or by using the powercfg command.
· Set the operating system power management profile to High Performance System. For this to work as expected, your system's BIOS has to be set to enable operating system control of power management.
· Enable Static Offloads, for example, UDP Checksums, TCP Checksums, and Send Large Offload (LSO)
· Enable RSS if the traffic is multi-streamed, such as high-volume multicast receive
· Disable the Interrupt Moderation setting for network drivers that require the lowest possible latency. The tradeoff is that this can use more CPU time.
· Handle network adapter interrupts and DPCs on a core processor that shares CPU cache with the core that is being used by the program that is handling the packet. CPU affinity tuning can be used to direct a process to certain logical processors in conjunction with RSS configuration to accomplish this. Using the same core for the interrupt, DPC, and user mode thread exhibits worse performance as load increases because the ISR, DPC, and thread contend for the use of the core.
System Management Interrupts
Many hardware systems use System Management Interrupts (SMI) for a variety of maintenance functions, including reporting of ECC memory errors, legacy USB compatibility, fan control, and BIOS controlled power management. The SMI is the highest priority interrupt on the system and places the CPU in a management mode, which preempts all other activity while it runs an interrupt service routine, typically contained in BIOS.
This behavior can result in latency spikes of 100 microseconds or more. If you need to achieve the lowest latency, look for a BIOS version from your hardware provider that reduces SMIs to the lowest degree possible, referred to as "low latency BIOS" or "SMI free BIOS." It is not possible to eliminate SMI activity altogether because it is used to control some essential functions, such as fan control.
Tuning TCP
TCP Receive Window Auto-Tuning
Prior to Windows Server 2008, the network stack used a fixed-size receive-side window that limited the overall potential throughput for connections. One of the most significant changes to the TCP stack is TCP receive window auto-tuning. You can calculate the total throughput of a single connection when you use this fixed size default as:
Total achievable throughput in bytes = TCP window * (1 / connection latency)
As an example, the achievable throughput is only 51 Mbps on a 1 GB connection with 10ms latency. With auto-tuning, the receive-side window is adjustable, and it can grow to meet the demands of the sender. It is possible for a connection to achieve a full line rate of a 1 GB connection. Network usage requirements that might have been limited in the past by the total achievable throughput of TCP connections can now fully use the network.
Windows Filtering Platform
The Windows Filtering Platform (WFP) that was introduced in Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008 provides APIs to non-Microsoft independent software vendors (ISVs) to create packet processing filters. Examples include firewall and antivirus software. Be careful that a poorly written WFP filter can significantly decrease networking performance.
The following registry keywords from Windows Server 2003 are no longer supported, and they are ignored in Windows Server 2012, as well as Windows Server 2008 R2, and Windows Server 2008:
· TcpWindowSize – HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters
· NumTcbTablePartitions – HKLM\system\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters
· MaxHashTableSize – HKLM\system\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters
Network-Related Performance Counters
This section lists the counters that are relevant to managing network performance.
Resource Utilization
· IPv4, IPv6
- Datagrams Received/sec
- Datagrams Sent/sec
· TCPv4, TCPv6
- Segments Received/sec
- Segments Sent/sec
- Segments Retransmitted/sec
· Network Interface(*), Network Adapter(*)
- Bytes Received/sec
- Bytes Sent/sec
- Packets Received/sec
- Packets Sent/sec
- Output Queue Length
This counter is the length of the output packet queue (in packets). If this is longer than 2, delays occur. You should find the bottleneck and eliminate it if you can. Because NDIS queues the requests, this length should always be 0.
· Processor Information
- % Processor Time
- Interrupts/sec
- DPCs Queued/sec
This counter is an average rate at which DPCs were added to the logical processor's DPC queue. Each logical processor has its own DPC queue. This counter measures the rate at which DPCs are added to the queue, not the number of DPCs in the queue. It displays the difference between the values that were observed in the last two samples, divided by the duration of the sample interval.

UK: Soft drinks market in good health
By just-drinks.com editorial team | 21 June 2007
The UK soft drinks market sustained "healthy" growth in 2006, with total volumes up by 3.6%, driven by the health and wellness trend and growth in still drinks categories.
A report from Zenith International, called 2007 UK Soft Drinks report, which was based on research conducted in conjunction with the British Soft Drinks Association (BSDA), put total soft drinks volumes for 2006 at 14.35bn litres, representing a retail sales value of GBP12.86bn (US$25.61bn). Per capita annual consumption reached 237 litres.
Despite a relative decline, carbonates continued to hold the leading share, accounting for 41.8% of total 2006 consumption, according to the report, while dilutables in ready-to-drink form were the second largest sector with a 23.4% share. Bottled water was the third largest category with a 15.9% share, with fruit juices and nectars accounting for 11.1%.
"Nature, health and wellbeing are now the key dynamics for consumption growth," said Zenith research director Gary Roethenbaugh. "Smoothies, chilled juice, still juice drinks and bottled water had the greatest momentum in 2006. The industry has placed particular emphasis on water and juice drinks on the go, chilled drink availability and lower to zero calorie carbonates."
Key findings include the rise of smoothies and-not-from concentrate (NFC) juice, up respectively by 58% and 26% in 2006; a "fundamental" shift away from added sugar, from a dominant 72% share 20 years ago to 39% in 2006; further consolidation; and an increase in popularity of functional drinks, notably the appearance of more superfruits and products with added health ingredients.
Zenith expects the trend towards health and wellbeing will continue to drive growth for the UK soft drinks industry. By 2011, it anticipates that total soft drinks consumption will exceed 16bn litres and 260 litres per person, with pure juice, still juice drinks and bottled water leading the growth.

Hardly anyone disputes that childcare in this country is appalling, a "disgrace", as Nick Clegg rightly called it last month. The cost is prohibitive at an average of £5,100 a year – only for part-time care of 25 hours a week, which is not enough for many working women's needs. The regulations governing the ratio of permitted children per minder are also too tight. The results are damaging and unsurprising. A quarter of all working women in the UK who get pregnant do not return to work, often because they can't afford to. Companies are deprived of skilled employees and forced to pay to train up replacements. The exodus of pregnant women acts as a disincentive to employers hiring younger women in the first place, and part-explains why women remain under-represented in the higher echelons of many companies. A number of reports argue that Britain's GDP would increase significantly if we could only keep these mothers at work.
Back in June, the Government promised to change this dismal state of affairs and look at best practice in those countries that retain the highest number of mothers in work, such as the Nordic countries, The Netherlands, and Austria. That would mean upping the number of hours of free childcare from today's limit of 15 a week for pre-schoolers over three, which is what the Liberal Democrats have argued for and what the Children's Minister, Liz Truss, a Tory, also seemed to support at one point.
Half a year on, fearful of the size of the bill that this might entail, the Chancellor, George Osborne, is lobbying for the cheaper approach of making childcare tax deductible, which is the approach that will carry the day when the Government publishes its review on the subject in January.
Clearly, Tory leaders see a political minefield in explaining away a potentially large boost to spending on childcare while trying to slash public spending overall. As they confront a growing challenge on the right from the UKIP insurgents, the last thing Tories want to be seen doing is currying favour with the Liberal Democrats on a key issue of public policy.
But, as the Resolution Foundation think tank points out, Mr Osborne's proposed tax breaks will disproportionately favour the better off over the poor. Those earning more will be in line for the biggest breaks. In other words, the changes will most favour those who have the least problems in affording childcare. Women at the bottom end of the pay scale who don't take home much to begin with – but who might be tempted back to work by more free childcare – will feel less of an incentive from the promise of a tax break.
There are other reforms that the Coalition could make, which won't cost much, or will save money, such as increasing the ratio of carers per child from the current limit of three to five, and easing the red tape involved in registering child minders, which is one factor behind the fall in the number of childminders. If carers could look after more children, they could afford to charge parents less.
But there is no point in tempting more people to work as childminders, and tinkering around with the cost, if it is still well out of the financial range of many ordinary families on lower incomes, forcing women who have worked back into a life of domesticity that is not of their choosing – which is different from women voluntarily giving up careers to concentrate on raising children. The Prime Minister, David Cameron, at one point made much of his progressive Conservative credentials. This is one field in which he could walk the walk. But it will mean him siding with Mr Clegg over Mr Osborne.
