What FreeBSD Achieved In Q3'2011

Here's a look at what the FreeBSD project managed to achieve during the third quarter, from July through September. There's a few noteworthy items.
The FreeBSD project today issued its latest quarterly status report, which can be
viewed on this FreeBSD.org page
. Key items from this past quarter include:
- Improved Atheros 802.11n support.
- There's now PCI Expres and SMP support for the Marvell Armanda XP SoC solution, which is derived from the Marvel Sheeva processors. The ARM port of FreeBSD presented these ongoing Marvell Armanda XP improvements. Next up will be finishing the SMP support, L2 cache support, and a Serial ATA (SATA) driver.
- GELI, the full-disk FreeBSD encryption method using the GEOM class, now has support for suspend/resume, AES-NI performance improvements for the AES-XTC algorithm, and other improvements.
- When it comes to the KDE desktop on FreeBSD,
the LLVM/Clang compiler can now build Qt
and there's various package updates. Notably there is now Qt 4.7.3, KDE SC 4.6.5, Amarok 2.4.1, and other packages.
- The OpenAFS 1.6 file-system has been ported to FreeBSD. This distributed network file-system is working under light load, but under heavy load there are reported to be some issues.
- ZRouter.org is a new project to provide a FreeBSD-based firmware for embedded devices. There's ZRouter firmware for various D-Link routers and other devices. The developers hope to have a web-based GUI by the next quarter along with more device drivers, control scripts, and other features.
FreeBSD 9.0 should be released later this month
. Benchmarks of this popular BSD distribution are being worked on next.
The previous FreeBSD status report can be read
. Improvements last quarter were made to LLVM/Clang, the Intel DRM driver porting, and other work. Sadly there isn't any Intel open-source graphics driver advancements to report on for this quarter.

Live hip-hop music MCs performing alongside an actual band is rare these days, unless you count VH1's annual attempt with Hip-Hop Honors and the ever-present Roots crew. However, in Miami this dearth of live hip-hop is not a problem. Trailblazers such as Mayday! are paving the way for the next-school, including the six-member band Artofficial, which incorporates sax, keys, bass, and drums in addition to two MCs. Playing live not only allows the groups to give the crowd a fresh interpretation of their recorded music, but also adds an organic element missing in hip-hop and gets butts moving.
Artofficial will be headlining the State of the Art event, featuring local artists' eye-opening art displays, DJs, and live funk music with a side of instrumental hip-hop.

I will be more than happy to share what I have. What in particular are you looking for?

VT's Fletcher Allen terminates 35 nurse contractsMarch 07,2014BURLINGTON, Vt. (AP) The Vermont Federation of Nurses and Health Professionals is beginning a grievance process because Fletcher Allen Health Care terminated contacts for 35 per diem nurses over the phone.
President of the Vermont Federation of Nurses and Health Professionals Mari Cordes says they "are not happy about it, in particular how it was handled."
Cordes tells the Burlington Free Press (http://bfpne.ws/1fHSi7M) that nurses received the terminations by phone on personal numbers and without union representatives with them.
Fletcher Allen Spokesman Mike Noble said the nurses who were terminated did not work the required minimum 288 annual hours and that "seven of the 35 didn't work at all."
Cordes says there is disagreement about total hours and the phone termination process and that the nurses' union is looking into the details.MORE IN Vermont NewsMONTPELIER U.S. Sen.

Syria minister killed in blast
Syrian state television said President Bashar Al Assad's brother-in-law senior military official Assef Shawkat was killed in a bomb attack in Damascus on Wednesday. Defence minister also killed. Intelligence chief hurt
- Published: 14:30 July 18, 2012
- Image Credit: AP
- This undated photo released by the Syrian official news agency SANA, shows Syrian Defense Minister Gen. Dawoud Rajha in Damascus, Syria. Syria's state-run TV says the country's defence minister has been killed in a suicide blast in the capital. Wednesday's attack struck the National Security building in Damascus during a meeting of Cabinet ministers and senior security officials.
London: British Foreign Secretary William Hague said a suicide bombing that killed two top Syrian security officials on Wednesday showed the need for a UN resolution to end the crisis.
The UN Security Council will later Wednesday vote on a Western resolution renewing the UN mission in Syria that calls for sanctions if the regime does not pull back heavy weapons, but Russia has already rejected it.
Syria more determined than ever to confront all forms of terrorism and chop any hand that harms national security
"We are aware of reports that the Syrian defence and deputy defence ministers have been killed and a number of others injured by an apparent suicide bombing in Damascus," Hague said in a statement.
"This incident, which we condemn, confirms the urgent need for a Chapter VII resolution of the UN Security Council on Syria."
Chapter VII of the UN charter deals with taking action against threats to peace and acts of aggression.
Defence minister and Al Assad brother-in-law killed
Syrian state media said the suicide attack in Damascus killed defence minister General Daoud Rajha and President Bashar Al Assad's brother-in-law Assef Shawkat.
Hague added: "The situation in Syria is clearly deteriorating.
"All the members of the UN Security Council have a responsibility to put their weight behind the enforcement of joint special envoy Kofi Annan's plan to end the violence.
"We call on all parties to refrain from violence, and for the Security Council to shoulder its responsibilities."
Russia and China — both permanent members of the Security Council along with Britain, France and the United States — have blocked two previous UN resolutions against Syria.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov on Wednesday rejected the latest resolution, saying it would mean taking sides with a revolutionary movement.

Location, and a historically well appointed house
Breakfast is very plain
Proximity to the downtown was perfect. Outstanding dining experience. Quaint, historical house and rooms.
The location is good, near the downtown lunenburg
The utilities is too old, the washroom is very...inconvenient, the bathroom and toilet are in a soon room, the washbasin is outside the breakfast is too simple, only few toasts, two eggs...the price is too high.
We had a great stay. Owner very welcoming and friendly. House is fantastic inside and out. Not far to walk into the heart of the town, which is a great place to walk around and explore all the beautiful old houses and shops. Breakfast was nice, but a bit of self service for the juice etc would be good, also help the poor guy serving.
Liked it.
Location in Lunenburg was good.
I have stayed in a fair number of B&Bs and the most important part is a hearty breakfast that lasts until well into the afternoon. The breakfast lacked imagination and heartiness - I was hungry at lunchtime. Also the place felt more formal than most B&Bs - I got the feeling that the restaurant was more important than the accommodations - maybe that is where the money is made.
We really liked the owner/hostess. She told us a lot about the history of the house and the community.
Everything was AOK.
Warm cosy feeling when entering, host was gracious and helpful. Felt very much at home. Lovely breakfast....not rushed.
We found the outside door difficult to open with the key.
Besutiful old house well maintained. Best fine dining around
Started in carriage house that was just opned up. I have bad allergy problem. They moved us to main house which was fine. They set out to rectify the problem at carriage house rt away
Supremely comfortable and much better located than we thought at first. Downtown is so full of tourists that the short walk to the edge of this small town is well worthwhile. The restaurant served a good meal in the evening.
We stayed in autumn so we didn't need any heating upstairs but our corner bedroom looked as though it could be cold in winter! The breakfast (run by a separate organisation) was a bit thin.
Very welcoming staff and very clean rooms.
Beautiful stately home close to downtown. Inn keeper was friendly and directed us to activites that we enjoyed.
The location of this B&B is with 5 minutes walk from downtown Lunenburg. We picked this B&B because it is a historic building. Also parking is free, breakfast is delicious and staff are friendly. Price is reasonable than the Inn right in the downtown.
The Lodge is just a short 5 minute walk from the main shopping streets past signs with historical information about Lunenberg. Our room was spacious with two double beds. The building is beautiful and Andrea the hostess was friendly and informative. The Lodge also houses the Bayleaf Eatery which provides excellent food. Mark served us - he too was friendly and knowledgable about the town.
The Lodge is on the corner of one of the main streets into town. As our room faced this corner it meant it was a tad noisy in the morning.
The hosted was a delightful person who gave us information of local events and things to do and see
Didn't like the noise from the street late at night.
Excellent Restaurant Very friendly and helpful Staff Free and abundant Parking 5 Minutes Walk to historic town Center
Very nice, friendly proprietor. Excellent meals & service. Clean room, comfortable bed.
Location Large rooms Friendly staff
We did not get two beds in our room as we had reserved. However, they were able to find us alternate rooms. We had 3 nights in one room, and then were switched to 2 separate rooms for the remaining 4 nights. We paid the originally quoted price for 7 nights in a shared room.
Was within easy walking distance to waterfront
Once checked in no staff in sight including departure. Free breakfast was not served until 8:30 am so if you are an early riser no access to coffee because there is nothing in the room. Bathroom split into two areas in room - found it awkward and nowhere to put your stuff.
romantic suite decor was a bit plain. would just need a colored paint, maybe two tone using wainscotting. nicer curtains would do wonders too.
Andrea was awesome. It's clear that she pays attention to every detail and it shows. The building itself was wonderful and the location was excellent.
Our room was a little warm as there is no air conditioning but that's to be expected in an historical home like this. Longer pull chains on the ceiling fan would be a good idea. Otherwise, when you use the wall switch to shut off the light, the ceiling fan shuts off too. Had to climb on a chair to use the pull chain.
The quaintness of the B&B as well as the history.
Nothing to complain about:)
Staff was excellent and building was super
Beautiful restored inn. Antiques and atmosphere.
Over all it was a pleasant stay, we slept well even though there was this high pitch noise we believe is caused by the heating system. Nothing is perfect .We had breakfast at the Inn , they tried to accommodate my Celiac condition, however it did not work because I had a reaction to whatever was in the food, it was either the eggs or the ash brown, not pleasant when you travel. I will still recommend the Inn to friends and family. I understand that catering to Celiac people can be quite costly so we appreciate what ever was done.I understand that catering to Celiac people can be quite costly so we appreciate what ever was done.
there was not enough Celiac / Gluten free options, I was told there is gluten free bread, however we understood that there was not a toaster dedicated strictly to that bread, some of us are very sensitive.
close to harbor and town can walk to all key areas.
steam heat did not work in our room-would not raise the heat level. it was working downstairs...

Adrian Gonzalez, Chase Headley and the hometown San Diego Padres match up against their National League West rivals, Mark Reynolds, Justin Upton and the Arizona Diamondbacks. The Padres' success this season has been fueled by their stellar pitching rotation, and by the powerful hitting of Gonzalez.

Poll: Democrats, women say Christie doing good job
Seventy-four percent of New Jersey voters surveyed approve of the job Gov. Chris Christie is doing, tying New York's Andrew Cuomo for the highest job approval rating of any governor in states surveyed by Quinnipiac University.
Wednesday's poll showed the New Jersey Republican's positives outweigh his negatives among Democrats, independents and women.
"'Give 'em hell, Chris!' New Jersey voters say about Gov. Christopher Christie's attack on House Speaker John Boehner and House Republicans when they delayed the vote on Superstorm Sandy relief," said Maurice Carroll, director of the Quinnipiac University Polling Institute.
Sixty-eight percent said Christie deserves re-election, compared with 24 percent who want someone else. Christie leads possible Democratic opponents by margins of at least 2-to-1.
The poll also showed Newark Mayor Cory Booker with an early 51 to 31 percent lead over incumbent Frank Lautenberg in the 2014 U.S. Senate race.
"Nothing but positive scores for Newark Mayor Cory Booker. U.S. Sen. Frank Lautenberg gets an OK job-approval rating and favorability, but voters don't think he should seek six more years in the Senate," Carroll said.
The survey of 1,647 registered voters was taken Jan. 15-21 and has an error margin of plus or minus 2.4 percentage points.

Who Should Play Klaus on The Vampire Diaries?by Steve Marsi at . Comments
The Vampire Diaries has set the bar high.
As the oldest, most bad ass vampire in the history of time, Klaus' legend precedes him - and means casting him will be a very tall order for TVD producers.
According to new reports, a face has not yet been assigned to this mysterious character, one intimidating enough to make even Damon "shake in his boots."
You think THIS guy's scary ...
Per Ian Somerhalder, "[Klaus] is the most powerful. A guy you don't want to be in a room with. Ever. In order to kill these guys [the originals], there's such a process."
Same goes for casting them. Elijah is fairly hard core, and if Klaus is supposedly much more so ... wow. Who do you think should play this ultimate blood-sucker?
Moreover, how and when should he be introduced? Should he remain shrouded in mystery for multiple years, a la Jacob on Lost, supremely influential but never seen?
Discuss below!
Steve Marsi is the Managing Editor of TV Fanatic. Follow him on Google+ or email him here.Tags: The Vampire Diaries, Casting News
Mads Mikkelsen!
Eric Braedon, who plays Victor Neuman on a soap opera, he has all the looks of evil, older and very mature, and very cold blooded.
Allan Hyde, he played Godric in True Blood
I say Julian McMahon - he played the perfect Source of evil in Charmed. He can totally pull this off ;)
Cam Gigandet. Most definitely Cam Gigandet.
If u want evil than theres no one better than Liev Schreiber. He would really be able to represent the animalic/predatory nature of a Vampire.
Gaspard Ulliel! DEFINITELY!
It'll be great if they can get David Boreanaz on the show.
Either of them would do great!!
Matt lanter
David boereanaz
Liam neeson
Or a totally fresh face!!!
Either James Marsters or David Boreanaz would be TOTALLY AWESOME AS KLAUS!! Julian McMahon would also be excellent! Jenson Ackles or Jared Padalecki would be awsome also! Just too many choices!!!!

- Welcome to my page. Please get in touch if you are interested in learning the bass.
- Which subject(s) do you teach?
- Lessons will be tailored to what the student wants to achieve by learning and playing the bass. This could be joining and playing in the school's "rock" band, becoming a session bassist or just learning something new and exciting.
I will show them the bass guitar in detail to understand how to use it as a tool to create sound, make music and hopefully a long career.
I can teach all styles from pop, indie and rock to reggae, funk and metal. I keep up-to-date with all the current trends in music as well as knowing all the classic bands so one can learn a whole spectrum of bass styles.
Students can learn to play finger style, with a pick or their thumb and even how to slap the bass. They will soon have a favourite way to play!
I am able to teach theory such as reading charts and tabs, playing scales, harmony, timing and ear training. Or, for those who only want to learn their favourite tunes, I will show them how to pick out the bass lines and play them (the way I learn for auditions and recording sessions).
I can teach pupils how to create their own bass lines and parts to bring to a band situation or to jam along with drum tracks.
- Tell me about your qualifications.
- BA Commercial Music
- What kind of experience do you have?
- I have over 9 years bass playing experience and have been professional most of these. I have played all over the world and on such stages as Hammersmith Apollo and The 02 Arena. I have toured the UK and played on numerous TV gigs with Matt Cardle. I have also toured the world with New Young Pony Club; including the Katy Perry European support tour.
- How much do you charge?
- Fee (30 minutes): £15.00
Fee (60 minutes): £25.00
- Where do you teach?

Synthesis, immunosuppressive activity and structure-activity relationship study of a new series of 4-N-piperazinyl-thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidine analogues.
Catholic University of Leuven, Rega Institute, Laboratory of Medicinal Chemistry, Minderbroedersstraat 10, 3000 Leuven, Belgium.Bioorganic & medicinal chemistry letters (Impact Factor: 2.65). 02/2010; 20(3):844-7. DOI: 10.1016/j.bmcl.2009.12.098
Source: PubMed
ABSTRACT The synthesis of a new series of 4-N-piperazinyl-thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidines is described. The synthetic route allows introducing structural variety at positions 2, 4 and 6 of the scaffold. Evaluation of their immunosuppressive activity in a Mixed Lymphocyte Reaction (MLR) assay revealed that the most potent compound has an IC(50)-value of 66 nM and therefore deserves attention for further medicinal chemistry optimization.
Article: Regioselective Metalations of Pyrimidines and Pyrazines by Using Frustrated Lewis Pairs of BF3 ⋅OEt2 and Hindered Magnesium- and Zinc-Amide Bases.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Born of frustration: Using the frustrated Lewis pairs TMP-metal and BF3 ⋅OEt2 allows the regioselective metalation of pharmaceutically relevant diazines, such as pyrimidines, purines, and pyrazines. These metalations are often complementary to prior deprotonations performed without BF3 ⋅OEt2 . Especially attractive is a new sequential regioselective full functionalization of the pyrazine scaffold with a bulky (TMS)2 CH substituent.Angewandte Chemie International Edition 05/2013; · 11.34 Impact Factor
Article: Synthesis and evaluation of novel ligands for the histamine H(4) receptor based on a pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine scaffold.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Starting from a known H(4)R ligand based on a pyrimidine skeleton, a series of novel analogues based on a pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine scaffold have been prepared. Whereas the original pyrimidine congener shows good affinity at hH(4)R (K(i)=0.5μM), its lacks selectivity with a K(i) value for the hH(3)R of 1μM. Within the newly synthesized pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidines, several congeners show K(i) values of less than 1μM at the hH(4)R and show a much improved selectivity profile. Therefore, these series represent an interesting starting point for the discovery of novel hH(4)R ligands.Bioorganic & medicinal chemistry letters 11/2012; · 2.65 Impact Factor

I LOVE these bindings! I was using the K2 Uprise on my Never Summer Lotus, and let me tell you the amount of control I now have over my board compared to the Uprise is night and day! Only issue I have and it's probably me and/or my boots is I can't use the quick-entry with these. Granted I haven't really tried that hard: First day at the base of the lift I set them to where I like em, then squiggled my foot out. Got off the lift and tried to get my boot back in the binding and it didn't fit, couldn't get the back up. I probably had the toe too tight but I like it that way. Could have also been the heel of my boots have a weird lip on the back. Either way no biggie I flopped down in the snow and strapped in as a regular binding, but even that is fast!Overall these are really awesome bindings, give you great control over your board. I would definitely buy again.

I'm a fairly middling boarder; I stick to the red runs. I bought these to replace some old Burton step-ins I'd had for the last 10 years, because I fancied a change but have enjoyed the convenience of simple bindings.However, on the NX2s I find I can't kick my (Salomon) boot in far enough to lift the highback, so I have to loosen the upper first, which kind of defeats the purpose. I'm at the upper end of the boot size for the L binding, but still, you'd want a snug fit for any boot, so that shouldn't matter. (Getting out of the bindings is pretty easy, but that's secondary frankly.)So I think while it seems a solid binding, the convenience isn't really there to justify it; next time I'll probably just try normal bindings. Maybe you'll have better luck if you also buy Flow boots, or if you're at the lower end of the boot size for the binding.One last thing - they don't come with a leash, so be sure to buy one if you don't have one.

Great Bindings
By Guillermo
from Spring, TX
About Me Advanced
Comments about Flow NX2-AT Snowboard Bindings 2014:
I like the addition of the ratchets. Ratchet in once, set up the back and then you are good to go. Can have them as a step in or as a traditional binding. Theses are very stiff bindings and will help you carve real hard. One drawback I found with these bindings is they feel real cheaply made. May not be the case while using them but out of the box you feel like you just bought a tonka toy. These don't look as rugged as the first generation Flow's I bought. Hopefully these last as long as my first pair.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Great bindings, but hard to get used to
By Kentucky Jelly
from Lakewood, CO
These are great bindings, but I did not have as much luck as my friends have with them. They are designed so you can get in and out by just flipping the back up and down. What I've experienced though is that in order to get in or out I have to loosen the straps a little. Granted, they make it very easy to do so. All in all they *can* be faster than regular bindings, but definitely not until you have used them several times. Don't expect to just slip in and out and go on your first few times out.
FAST strong binding
By jrocc
from cincinnati ohio
these bindings are awesome very strong and durable the rear entry is such a breeze.
They look nice.
By Chief Boyardee
from The Zoo, CA.
I haven't used them yet - It's still September in Southern California, I just got back from surfing in trunks, so... I'm writing this review so that I get entered in a contest. They seem solid, I have a pair of Flow "Team" bindings with a magnesium base that I've had from approximately 12 years - those still work. The fact that the foot piece lifts up is a nice improvement. I read review that stated that they had a hard time getting their foot in without loosening the foot piece. I tried at home and no problems. Why would you want bindings with straps when there's this option, which spreads the pressure over a much greater surface, thus reducing pressure points?.?.
Conan and the GRIM GREEN GOD!
By StrumUndRath
from Pocatello, Idaho
The Flow NX2-AT's are really well designed. The multiple pivot points to loosen the top of the strap really works well. My boots are a bit tight and I have to pull up on the highback to get them in but eventually they slip into place and are locked tight. One item that could be a PRO rather than a CON was the forward lean on the NX2's is pretty aggressive even when adjusted out. On my old Burtons I had to adjust them forward, I adjusted the NX2's to about mid and it was leaned out WAYYYY too far. Very responsive with no pressure points once properly adjusted (which is difficult because there is so many ways to adjust these bindings. . . you'll spend a full day on the hill just tweaking them). If Conan had to replace his two-handed sword with a snowboard and bindings. . . he would ride these bindings.
best rear entry binding
By larry in PA
from PA
About Me Intermediate
These are super comfortable. easy to adjust. may take a couple of runs down the hill to get them tweaked, but once done, mark the ladder straps with a sharpie, to set it back easy. The NASTY system fixes the loose feeling inbindings. when open it is easier to slide in. (you will have to angle boot in a bit since the heel area is too narrow for a slide). once in click it closed and you are set, these are really easy to adjust, and you can use like a traditional binding as well , by using the side straps, if in POW.Compared to the other competitors, these are the easiest to get in and the best built. I have both of their competitors bindings as well.
Phenomenal binding in every way!
By SoloSpaceMonkey
from Denver, CO
Very comfortable and very smooth entry and exit. I have no pressure points and they're extremely responsive. The only complaint is weight which isn't that big of a deal overall. It's not like they're several extra pounds a piece, just not quite as light as the other guys.
Great Product
By butterball
from Boston, MA
I have only gotten to test these once because I got them at the end of the season but they seemed great! So nice to be able to get in and out so fast.
By Stell
from NY
Easy entry and set up. Reliable stuff
Almost Perfect
By rather be riding
from Portland, OR
Overall a very nice binding, very stiff, power strap doesn't pinch or cause pressure points, feels very secure when latched. The instructions for mounting leave out all the adjustability that is built into the binding to get a great fit. You have to go online and watch the several videos to learn everything about how to set them up. (fore/aft adj, heel toe balance, tilt angle, high back adjt, etc)When I first mounting the binding I was getting toe drag, (size 13 boots XL binding), after adjusting the binding and rotating the mounting plates I expect that to issue to go away. I wish the power strap opened up more when you drop the high back, I still have to adjust the straps to get in, that may improve with the adjustments, should find out this weekend.
Take's a little getting used to
By jeffmcmullin
About Me Expert
Took a few runs to get used to it. I'm coming from more traditional Union bindings. The stiffness and the heel entry were definitely something different. It's very easy to over-tighten these guys when you're not ratcheting steps across. Find your sweet spot and they become seamless.

I have the bindings on a Never Summer SL and love them I just wish they had a little more high support they feel loose sometimes at the tops and if I tighten them anymore they make the lower half of my feet go numb.

Excellent Bindings!
By Steve
from Hickory, NC
Just returned from a 4 day trip to Salt Lake. Visited Snowbird, Solitude and Brighton. I purchased the bindings the week before the trip, but had everything setup to ride. The bindings are great and I could not ask for a better product. This is my first pair of Flow bindings and now I'm sold on their bindings for life. Easy to adjust to fit any boot type and love the quick entry. I used a size 10 DC Judge 2014 boa boots with these bindings. The fit was great and I never had an issue with the straps locking my boot to the binding. I did all mountain riding, but did not spend time in the parks. I did drops and jumps on the mountain and the bindings held their own on all terrains.
Great bindings with easy entry/exit
By Ted
from Raleigh, NC
Just used them for 4 straight days at JH. These bindings are quick and easy to use. After the lift, I'm ready to ride before anyone else in my group other than the skiers now. The bindings also stayed tight to my feet the entire time. Used to always have problems with my Burton's toe strap getting loose after some runs. With these, my feet were always locked into the board with no float, like I'd heard from some reviews.
Highly recommend...
By Jon
from New Hampshire
I discussed rear-entry bindings with many better boarders. Some made comments like how fast they could get in and out of regular bindings. Let me tell you these bindings are lightning fast and rock solid. It's a single motion: step in and snap. No sitting down. No threading straps. There is no way anyone could put on two straps faster than I can lock my binding. I have seen none of the cons they warned me about. I think most of them had only used the earlier design; the newer cam action that opens the straps really makes it easy to step in. I have had no problems. They are the best bindings by far that I have owned or rented.

Only rented boards 2 times, but having this binding system really makes a difference in overall enjoyment on the hill.
Flow bindings = No more butt in the snow
By High Velocity Chris
from New York, NY
I got these after I bought my second all mountain board and they are amazing. Stiff and responsive but also comfortable. Easy in and out (to the point of people looking at me funny when I strap in as I am heading off the lift chair.) Recommend for a stiffer all mountain board. Although I have hit the park with these on, you would be better off with a more flexible set up.
Better Than Me!
By AslerGamma
from Seattle, Wa
I got these for my wife for her new deck, honestly I'm kinda jealous. These things are soooo well made and are super easy to adjust. Not to mention the Flow's set it and forget it set up, its pretty trick.
By Seany P
from Phoenix, Az
These bindings are so fresh. They take a lot of adjusting and tuning, but fit great. The rear entry makes getting in and out super easy. I spend more time on trails and less time screwing with the bindings at the top of the mountain.

Sony updates PS3 Music Unlimited app, adds custom radio stations
Sony's Music Unlimited service doesn't enjoy the same word-of-mouth enthusiasm that Spotify and Pandora have garnered from music lovers. But if being unpopular stopped the company from trying to improve, it would have closed up shop a long time ago.
A new update for users accessing the streaming music platform on their PlayStation 3 consoles has added much-needed features, including greater customization options available to subscribers.
"The new app gives you added control over how you listen to and access music," said Mike Aragon, vice president of Sony Network Entertainment. "We're most excited about the new 'My Channels' function that lets you build custom radio stations around your favorite artists. Simply type in the name of the artist and we'll populate a station with songs from that artist and related artists."
Listeners can essentially mold the app to their liking, not unlike Pandora and Last.fm. Aragon said a new "dislike" feature would allow users to skip tracks they don't enjoy.
"We've also given PS3 users more power to adjust on the fly with the ability to edit playlists directly from the system," explained Aragon. "You can now create new playlists from scratch, delete or rename them. Songs can also be deleted or added to existing playlist providing complete control over your listening experience."
Music Unlimited is a paid subscription service. A Basic membership runs $3.99/month, while the Premium version costs $9.99/month. Key differences between the two plans include the latter's unlimited playback and playlist-editing capabilities. The new features are available to both basic and premium subscribers.

How To Cut A Goose Feather Into A Lovely Quill Pen
I'm not going to lie, I don't really need to know how to cut and make a quill pen from a goose feather. No one does anymore. But! I was completely fascinated by the process of it.

Why Screws Tighten Clockwise
One of the six simple machines, a screw is nothing more than an inclined plane wrapped around a center pole. While today screws come in standard sizes, and typically are tightened by turning clockwise (and loosened by turning counterclockwise), this is a recent invention. A great example of how things that seem simple can be really hard to do right, the development of the predicable system we enjoy today took 2000 years to invent.
A Nut-Cracking Hammer That Stops Shell Shrapnel

Wu Tang Clan - The Heart Gently Weaps ft. Erykah Badu
Artist: Wu Tang Clan
Producer: RZA
Album: 8 Diagrams
Avg Rating: 3.9 ( 30 votes )
As if the Wu Tang Clan hadn't made enough hip hop history in their storied career, the first single from their new album, 8 Diagrams, hits yet another milestone (more so music in general). The Heart Gently Weeps interpolate the Beatles' White Album classic (where the guitar is doing the weeping). Accompanied by RZA's smooth guitar production and Erykah Badu's hauntingly beautiful chorus; Raekwon, Ghostface Killah, and Method Man demonstrate that while the hood life can easily make one's heart weep, eventually you have to rebound and get back to business. Dhani Harrison (George's son) helped supervise The Heart Gently Weeps and judging from its quality, George is looking down, listening and very proud of how his work was arranged.

This is a 5-unit second-term course in single-variable calculus with an accelerated pace -- specifically, Math 42 will cover techniques
of integration, applications of integration, differential equations,
infinite sequences and series, and Taylor polynomials. Although everyone
is welcome in the course, it is aimed primarily to students who
will continue taking more advanced quantitative classes which require a strong calculus background.
This course also requires a strong background in the first half of single-variable calculus, as covered in Math 41 (or equivalent): differential calculus and applications, the foundations of integral calculus up to and including u-substitution techniques, and the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus.
There are other math courses, and course sequences, which may be appropriate for students considering
Math 42, so you should be deciding in the first week or so whether Math 42
is the right class for you.
One quick heads-up to those who haven't taken Math 41 and do decide to take
Math 42 this quarter: Math 41 covers a couple of topics which
are not on the Calculus AB syllabus, and which you therefore may not have
seen in high school. In particular, Math 41 covered l'Hôpital's Rule (which
will not be discussed much in Math 42, but will come up in passing) and
integration by parts (which will also be treated in Math 42).
For a detailed schedule of topics, see the Schedule page.
Each week you will attend three lectures and two discussion sections. The
lectures are on Monday, Wednesday and Friday, either at 11am or 1:15pm.
The discussion sections are on Tuesday and Thursday. See the Section Assignments page to view the choices for times and locations and instructions
on the sign-up process. You will sign up for a discussion section via CourseWork.
The lectures will be used primarily to introduce concepts and develop theory, and serve as a complement to the course textbook. You can get the most out of lecture by having first read the relevant sections in the textbook (as set in the calendar of topics on the course schedule page). In the discussion sections, you meet with your Teaching Assistant in a smaller group. Much of the time in section will be used for example problems based on topics developed in lecture and the textbook; you can get the most out of section by working on the posted daily discussion problems in advance (i.e., immediately after lectures).
Attendance at all lectures and sections is required. If you miss a lecture or a section, it is your responsibility to catch up on the topics that you missed. You should keep in mind that in this course, the material builds on itself; if you miss some of the material, subsequent lectures will be more difficult (or even unintelligible) for you.
The final exam will be held on Monday, December 8, from 7-10pm.
You must take the final exam at this time, which is set by the University.
All of the exams are closed book, closed notes, with no electronic aids.
For each exam, if appropriate, you may be provided with a formula
sheet, which will be available on the exam materials
page prior to the exam, along with other study materials.
Points available on exams: The total points available on the exams will be in approximate proportion 2:2:3. That is, the first and second midterm exams will have approximately equal numbers of total points available, and the number of points available on the final exam will be approximately 1.5 times those available on a single midterm exam.
There are no predetermined numerical cutoffs for letter grades, and the cutoffs may turn out to be rather different from what you are accustomed to from high school. In general, the grade distribution for the class is usually (roughly) as follows: around 30% of the class receive A's, around 40% receive B's, and most of the rest receive C's.
Before you sign into CourseWork, make sure you read the
Section Assignments page, which contains instructions on the sign-up process for
discussion sections.
Again, remember that Axess and CourseWork are different programs, and you
sign up for different course components on each -- on CourseWork, you sign up for a
discussion section
based on the table on the Section Assignments
but on Axess you sign up
for a lecture.
Despite its other capabilities, in this class CourseWork will be used only
for grades and possibly email announcements.

Latest Packt Publishing Java EE 7 books are all around performance and tuning. I had the pleasure to review another book, the "Java EE 7 Performance Tuning and Optimization" by Osama Oransa.
In one of my last posts I explained how you get started with SwitchYard on WildFly 8.1. In the meantime the project was busy and released another Alpha2. A very good opportunity to explore the quickstarts here and refresh your memory about it. Beside the version change, you can still use the earlier blog to setup you local WildFly 8 server with latest Switchyard.
After upgrading Windows 8 to Windows 8.1 my wireshark freezed on every startup without showing up the main window.
The only workaround was to deinstall wireshark including wincap and installing it again. But after the nex reboot, it freezed again.
After searching around i found the following fix, with cured this problem:
inside the registry you have to change the DWORD start in

Heidi Klum | Golden Globes Red Carpet Fashion 2013
Golden Globe Awards: Heidi Klum
by Robert Khederian 5 Reactions 60 Shares Print
Heidi Klum continued her sexy streak in this glamorous, one-shouldered Alexandre Vauthier gown. Just look to her dramatic train and the equally eye-catching thigh-high slit for proof. Accenting the diagonal neckline of her gown was a wide trim of multicolored stone embellishments, whose colors were echoed by her chandelier earrings. Her hair was sleekly styled to the side, and a statement cuff balanced out her look — that's all she needed to make her red-carpet entrance. Are you on board with Heidi's choice?
