(For more campaign news, see ELECT.)
Feb. 9 (Bloomberg) -- Mitt Romney took aim at the rival who beat him in three Republican presidential contests in one day, berating Rick Santorum as a long-time Washington insider and lumping him with Newt Gingrich.
Romney, whose status as the frontrunner in the Republican was shaken by the Feb. 7 results, yesterday compared both Santorum and Gingrich with President Barack Obama, saying all three lacked experience in the "real economy."
Santorum, a former senator from Pennsylvania, and Gingrich, the former U.S. House speaker, "spent a lot of time in Washington and during that time they spent a lot more money than they took in," Romney said in Atlanta, Georgia.
Romney, who has stressed his experience as a private equity executive, went on the offensive after Santorum revived his candidacy with wins in Missouri's non-binding primary and caucuses in Minnesota and Colorado.
The Romney attacks are set to continue today. His campaign has scheduled a conference call for reporters in which two Oklahoma state officials are to target Santorum's "support of reckless spending" and "enthusiastic defense of earmarks," according to a statement.
Earmarks refer to the federal funding of a lawmaker's pet project. Oklahoma holds a primary on March 6, so-called Super Tuesday when 11 nomination contests are held.
Final Returns
In final returns from this week's contests, Santorum ran 30 percentage points ahead of second-place finisher Romney in Missouri and beat him by 5 points in Colorado. In Minnesota, final results showed U.S. Representative Ron Paul of Texas in second place, 18 points behind Santorum and 10 points ahead of Romney. Gingrich, who wasn't on the Missouri ballot, ran fourth in Minnesota and third in Colorado, 1 point ahead of Paul.
Santorum now has four victories in the nomination race to three for Romney and one for Gingrich.
"We definitely are the campaign right now with the momentum," Santorum said yesterday on CNN. "We're doing very, very well raising money," with about $250,000 raised online last night, he said.
'Wonderful Gift'
He campaigned yesterday in Texas, which holds its primary April 3. Stopping at a chapel in McKinney, he referred to his also-ran status in the Republican race before his victories this week, telling a group of area pastors: "The gift of being underestimated is a wonderful gift."
Romney, at his event in Georgia, told about 300 people that "Senator Santorum and Speaker Gingrich, they are the very Republicans who acted like Democrats" when they were in Congress on such issues as federal spending and earmarks.
"And when Republicans act like Democrats, they lose," he said.
Santorum has been pressing much the same case against Romney that the former Massachusetts governor is making against him.
Speaking to supporters at a victory celebration Feb. 7 in St. Charles, Missouri, Santorum said Romney "has the same positions as Barack Obama" on issues including health-care policy.
Alternative to Obama
"I don't stand here to claim to be the conservative alternative to Mitt Romney," Santorum said. "I stand here to be the conservative alternative to Barack Obama."
As Romney arrived in Georgia yesterday, he expressed confidence in his campaign's future and sought to discount Santorum's wins.
"We think we can beat Senator Santorum where we compete head to head in an aggressive way, and we obviously didn't do that in Colorado or Minnesota," he told reporters,
Romney won both states in his failed 2008 bid for the Republican nomination.
Romney spoke at a warehouse in Gingrich's home state. Georgia also holds a primary on Super Tuesday.
Homemaker Stacy Ro, 31, said she thought it was a smart move for Romney to campaign early in the state Gingrich served for 20 years as a congressman.
"I don't think Newt has the home-court advantage here at all, I don't think anybody does," said Elizabeth Garcia, 35, a teacher, homemaker and poet, as she stood in line waiting for Romney's arrival at Bottega Stone, an importer of the stone used in upscale countertops. "Newt made a lot of enemies here over the years."
Gingrich plans to campaign for two days in Georgia next week.
Mormon Factor
Romney supporters dismissed Romney's defeats this week as a fluke; one saw it as a sign of religious bigotry.
Some voters "just don't like him because he's Mormon," said Bill Sanders, 62, a retiree from suburban Canton, Georgia, outside Romney's Atlanta rally.
Still, the results highlighted Romney's difficulty in gaining support from conservative Republicans who are focused on issues such as banning abortion. At the same time, Santorum's new strength may aid Romney in a drawn out nomination fight. A revitalized Santorum campaign and Gingrich may keep splitting the anti-Romney vote.
Romney had been the clear front-runner in the race after easily winning Florida's Jan. 31 primary and Nevada's Feb. 4 caucuses.
Ohio Focus
Gingrich didn't mention Santorum or Romney by name during a speech yesterday at Jergens Inc., a closely held company in Cleveland that manufactures products such as specialty fasteners. Gingrich also spent Feb. 7 in Ohio, which has begun early voting ahead of its Super Tuesday primary.
"We're in the race all the way," he said on CNN.
In a chat with a Georgia talk radio host, he deflected a question about his poor showing in the Feb. 7 votes.
"It was a really bad day for Mitt Romney," Gingrich told Rusty Humphries. "He's the guy that's supposed to be gathering up all these delegates. He took a drubbing yesterday."
Romney, Santorum and Gingrich are to address activists tomorrow at the annual Conservative Political Action Conference in Washington. The reception they receive will be closely monitored, especially following the Missouri, Minnesota and Colorado results.
Paul declined a speaking invitation from CPAC. His son, Republican Senator Rand Paul of Kentucky, is to speak to the group today.

Shark Tank Exclusive Interview : AG Bill McCollum Swims in the Tank
Posted by: Javier Manjarres on June 30, 2010
The GOP primary race for Governor in Florida continues to heat up as Attorney General Bill McCollum and Rick Scott continue to exchange tough political barbs to try get an edge in the race. McCollum has been a conservative stalwart in Florida politics for quite some time, and he was favored to win this year's Gubernatorial race- that was until Mr. Scott jumped into the race. Recent polls show Mr. Scott leading General McCollum by double digits. General McCollum has recently been endorsed by Governors Jeb Bush, Mitt Romney and Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich. (VIDEOS)
General McCollum was gracious enough to sit down with The Shark Tank and answer some tough questions, ranging from his comments on the controversial AZ Immigration bill and a possible bill similar to it here in Florida, Obamacare, and the BP oil spill. I can't say I was surprised by the manner the AG embraced and answered my questions, because it seems that he has always been up to the challenge of answering tough questions. The General seemed very relaxed and answered the questions with quite a bit of confidence and showed how well versed and knowledgeable he was on all the issues.
The interview ran a bit long so I split it up in (3) segments. There are a lot of interesting remarks made throughout the segments, so you may want to watch the whole thing attentively.

Great interview! Bill will make a great governor.
Marty in Pcola
Mr. McCollum is a conservative's conservative and this interview proves it. Can't wait to vote for him in August.
Pingback: The Shark Tank's Bill McCollum (CAN-R-FL-GOV) Interview | RedState()
Mr. McCollum was in Congress and has been FL. Atty Gen; Why didn't he get er done on Illegals? It's only been 16 years. And more recently Repub. Atty. Gen., A Repub. State House & Senate, a former Repub. Governor and no one thunk that Illegals were draining the budget? Shazam you Repubs are sooo smart. But you took the obama money for the bullet train, that there is NO state money to match funding.Repubs are Repubs don't automatically confuse them with Conservatives.
Conservatives are usually Republican, but Repubs are lip service Conservatives. -
Ana Gomez-Mallada
We all knew something was wrong with Greer's bahviour last year – as Greer cleared the field of contenders for Governor for General McCollum and attempted to likewise clear the field for Crist by invoking the RNC's Rule 11, enacted to protect the party against clearly "udesirable" candidates and rarely used.
In fact, Greer's taped telephone conversations indicate much that is very disturbing along those lines.

Wow! I'm glad I saw this interview. I was leaning towards Rick Scott but now after listing to Bill McCollum I have realized that Bill is the right guy for the job!
Edward Lynch
Very good interview. Javier, you asked the right questions on issues which have been brought up and are important to the voters.
I thought Bill McCollum was concise and forthcoming and I am proud to support him.
Conservative Diva
This guy is a career politician. We need some new blood in Tallahassee,not the same people that gave us Charlene Crist and Fat ass Greer. McCollum is buddies with these guys and probably knows more than what he has told the interviewer. Rick Scott's issues are nothing, anyone with a brainand knows anythign about business will see that CEO's are overruled by the majority on the board.
Rick Scott needs to be our next governor. McCollum is simply put, establishment.
Conservative Diva
Just one more thing, everyone make sure to go read the Robert Lowry lawsuit on this same blog. What an idiot?! Isnt he friends with that other two-time loser, Edward Lynch?
Elizabeth Craine
Great interview! I have been a fan of Bill McCollum for years. He is a proven conservative. He has my vote and he will make a great Governor. I dont think we should throw people out just because they have been in gov a number of yrs. Look at McCollum's record. He has stood up for what is right.. Do you want someone for Gov that you dont know anything about. Scott is using his charm offensive to get people to vote for him. Is that what you want? People looked at the charm offensive for Pres and look what we got. Scott started out on day one of trashing Bill McCollum. Do you know for a fact that he is pro-life. He says he is, but the hopitals he ran did elected abortions and he benefited financially for it. Do you know what Rick Scott stands for?
My vote will go with a tried and proven conservative. Just remember there are people who will talk conservative to get elected and show their liberal stripes after they are elected. With Bill McCollum you know you have a conservative. -
Elvira F. Hasty
Bill McCollum is well known in Republican circles as an honest and patriotic American. He has not been in government all these years to become wealthy or gain power; he is truly what we want and need in politicians: "a public servant." Born in the small town of Brooksville, Florida, Bill McCollum has spent his life working on behalf of his beloved state and serving his country as an officer in the U.S. Navy. On the other hand, Rick Scott moved to Naples, Florida, seven years ago after becoming wealthy while his company had declined due to corrupt practices. Bill McCollum chose service to his state and his country over wealth creation. No one can point to any corruption, any scandal, or any dishonest practice by Bill McCollum in all the years he has served Florida and our country. This is something to admire, not to deride!
Rick Scott has tried to implicate Bill McCollum in the scandal of RPOF Chairman Jim Greer. Rick Scott dishonestly misleads Florida Republican voters when he well understands how Party governance works. The Chairman of the Republican Party of Florida is elected by Party members, consisting of Chairman, State Committeeman, and State Committeewoman of each county plus Republican elected officials. Jim Greer entered the race for RPOF Chairman with the strong support of newly elected Governor Charlie Crist. Most RPOF members who voted for Greer did so to help support a new Republican Governor. As Attorney General, Bill McCollum had only one vote in any RPOF proceedings. If anyone is to blame for Jim Greer is his good friend Charlie Crist and the RPOF members who voted to re-elect him in 2009.
As Attorney General, Bill McCollum has worked hard to protect our Florida children from Internet pedophiles. Attorney General Bill McCollum has placed Florida as a national leader in the fight against child pornography and internet child predators. He has also pursued mortgage fraud, Medicaid fraud, and several scams to protect Floridians. He has improved our state's security against terrorist threats and crimes against the elderly.
After passage of the Obama Healthcare Reform, Bill McCollum was the first AG to file for a lawsuit against the new law. Today Bill McCollum is spending much of his time on the oil spill problem that has now reach the beaches in Pensacola. Bill McCollum's plan to revive the Florida economy includes lower taxes, regulatory relief for businesses, and tort reform. On the issue of Immigration and the Arizona law, Bill McCollum opposed Comprehensive Immigration Reform and supports the amended Arizona Immigration law. . Rick Scott misleads voters in his ads as if McCollum was against the Arizona law, just like the rumor about Marco Rubio. Arizona passed the law after the amendment——-what Scott mentions is before the amendment. Please keep in mind how distortions occur in politics. In addition, keep also in mind that a law that in any way would have used profiling would be detrimental because both Arizona and Florida have very large numbers of legal, loyal, good American citizens of Hispanic origin. I AM ONE! -

Several weeks back Rick Scott almost had me sucked in. However I had to sit and think about my work experiences in HCA as an agency personnel, what I saw in how my patients were treated, and how i was treated when I addressed those issues. I found myself unable to commit to that thought because of those dealings.
Mr. McCollum has taken his sweet time in speaking to the public in a sharable format, causing me a great deal of anger, however he has hit every issue here and Javier, you did a great job in pulling this information out of him.
I will cut him a huge amount of slack in that he has been dealing with State of Florida interests while campaigning for Governor.
Excellent summation to many questions I had myself!
Job well done, Javirer
cindy fraher
What a one-sided interview…Oops you can't even call it that it is campaign monologue…shame on the Shark tank by giving one R candidate free press and not the other!
Javier Manjarres
@Cindy Fraher
Are you saying that I have not given Rick Scott free press?
Maybe you missed this
http://shark-tank.net/2010/06/02/exclusive-interview-rick-scott-dives-in-the-shark-tank/As you will see, Scott was the first to jump into the tank. You were saying?
McCollum said 3-4 years to win repealing healthcare.In Janurary 2011 they start taking 20% of my HSA.And Obama's record so far is he aint gone to court once,He keeps getting the cases dismismissed which proves he owns the courts.
He said he is one of the right ones that need to be elected?I remember Bill McCollum stand on the steps in 1994 promising a bunch of goodies that gave the GOP a majority and he forgot to mention his record on the terms limits that he promise to vote for.He forgot to mention the law that the politicians have to live by the same laws that they make for us to live under.
Bill McCollum is a lier.And the interviewer gave easy setup questions.I hope the host is voluteering.It would be a shame if they had to pay him for this trash. -
Don't forget we already have a "wolf in sheep's clothing" in the White House. Do not fall for Rick Scott's ability to speak well and his slick commercials as we have been down that path and look where we are now. Yes, Bill may be "dull as dishwater" but he has always represented Florida well and will continue to have our best interest at heart. He jumped in and took control of the national healthcare situation and led other states to do the same. He is fighting for the people of Florida. Don't be fooled by sound bytes taken out of context and made into a Rick Scott ad, look at the whole picture. It will be a long 4 months if we have to listen to all the negative ads – let's hear an ad with some positive spin, PLEASE.
McCollum says a law on the book needs to be enforced.Why he as Congressman not enforce the law? It is Congress that the Constitution declares shall enforce it with appriate legislation.Congress has not when he was there not since enforced immigration.He says he was the guy who led the fight against amnesty back then?He was as late then as he is now on illegal immigration.Did you hear they are working even now on the immigration?Even now?Oh yea it;s an election year and "even now"?Mr.Scott does not know florida law,well Mr McCollum appearently does because he is drafting that law even now as we speak?Mr.McCollum is weak because he talks to people assuming they are stupid.The GOP is dead.
Michael L. Griese
Rick Scott seems to be the better choice of the two. McCollum has too many connections with Crist, Greer and others with in the party. I hope Rick Scott can say more than just attack boring Bill.
Michale l. Griese
Rick Scott has got my vote. Boring Bill is tied to Crist and Greer and the rest of the establishment of the party. We need a fresh face and someone who can lead. Boring Bill wouldn't even challenge Crist when the interviewer gave him the opportunity to do so. vote Scott!!
Attorney Gabriel Carrera
The problem with McCullum is that he is waffling even before the primary is over. He is another GOPer who will say whatever to get elected. This is the year of the "Reset Button" and we need to let NEW BLOOD into the Gov mansion……..not an anti-AZ law candidate that took campaign donation moneies from PLANNED PARENTHOOD and other abortion providers in his GOP carreer. RICK SCOTT is the man!
You know, these career politicians are nauseous. I bet he doesn't mean anything he says … If so, why didn't he do it?
Say anything to get elected, and we fall for it. Worked for Obowma, didn't it.
We need people of character, not characters.
I do not want to be fooled again with the likes of another Obamaclone. Rick Scott is a carpetbagger coming here to FL not knowing our history nor even the names of our 67 counties, and using money he ripped off from US the taxpayer thru his fraudulent ways as CEO of HCA, and is using the same techniques that Obama used to lie about MCCOLLUM and spend obscene amts of money just to buy his way to the governorship. He doesn't want to debate McCollum because he doesn't want to look like an idiot for not knowing our state laws and rules already on the books. Wake up people, we already know what we got with a slick ad and teleprompter president. Don't do a repeat in FL with the governorship. We know Bill, he is a proven honest, trusthworthy, conservative.

Abstract: | A large class of linear recursive queries compute the bill-of-materials of database relations.This paper presents a novel algorithm that computes the bill-of-materials of its argument's (database) relation. The algorithm uses a special join operation that accumulates the cost of composite parts, without constructing the transitive closure of the argument relation, thus saving time and space. We argue that this algorithm outperforms existent algorithms in the order of the diameter of the graph represented in the argument relation. This is made possible by exploiting knowledge of the level each tuple of the argument relation belongs to. Moreover, this algorithm in contrast to transitive closure based processing, produces data at a very early stage of the processing which renders it suitable for pipelined distributed data processing. |

Abstract: | Background: An increasing quantity of research in the domain of telemedicine show a growing popularity and acceptance of care over distance systems among both clinicians and patients. We focus on telementoring solutions, developed for providing remote guidance to less experienced surgeons. Telestration is often regarded as an extra functionality of some telementoring systems. However, we advocate that telestration must be viewed as a core feature of telementoring due to its advantages. Objective: To analyze and define concepts, parameters, and measurement procedures to evaluate the impact of using telestration while telementoring. Methods: A systematic review of research dealing with telestration during remote guidance sessions was performed by querying three major online research databases (MEDLINE, Association of Computing Machinery, and Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers) using a predefined set of keywords ("laparoscopy", "annotate", "telestrate", "telestration", "annotation", "minimally invasive", and "MIS"). Results: The keyword-based search identified 117 papers. Following the guidelines for performing a systematic review, only 8 publications were considered relevant for the final study. Moreover, a gap in research defining the impacts of telestration during telementoring was identified. To fill this niche, a framework for analyzing, reporting, and measuring the impacts of telestration was proposed. Conclusions: The presented framework lays the basics for the structured analysis and reporting of telestration applied to telementoring systems. It is the first step toward building an evidence knowledge base documenting the advantages of live video content annotation and supporting the presented connections between the concepts. |

Abstract: | Several actors are involved in all layers the handset architecture, from hardware producers to service providers, and the numbers are raising. Lack of collaboration amongst these actors across and within layers has led to a complex development-process of services and applications, which in turn leads to difficult use of such applications and services. In this thesis we took a closer look at the mobile phone, examined challenges surrounding development and use of services on mobile phones, and found initiatives by actors to handle these challenges. This knowledge was used to design and implement a solution to handle identified challenges. The solution involves using the UICC as the main application platform and container of state, with the possibility to deploy handset-specific parts of an application on the handset. Standardized tools on the handset give UICC-applications the means to communicate with external processes and users. In addition the network operator is given an important role to administrate and adapt applications on the UICC as services change communication technology and application standard. The designed architecture facilitates more widespread development and use of services on the mobile handset. The architecture is realizable through current platforms and standards. By implementing a simulation and subset of our design on a handset the design was substantiated. |

Abstract: | It is becoming clear that modern middleware platforms must provide both deploy-time configuration and run-time reconfiguration to accommodate rapid changing requirements and also to be able to operate in dynamic environments. J2EE is a key example of a middleware architecture that supports enterprise applications via its Enterprise JavaBeans (EJB) component model. EJB provides limited configurability in terms of a fixed set of non-functional middleware services at deployment-time (via a declarative deployment descriptor). However, EJB along with other related enterprise architectures generally do not provide enough support for re-configuration or evolution. At best, there is limited support in some platforms for replacing or updating particular services. This paper discusses the design of configurable and re-configurable middleware architecture and also the key role of separation of concerns for such platforms. The paper also describes the Arctic Beans component model which uses the Composition Filters model to capture such concerns and also support their safe composition.The paper also explains how this model can be used to construct an Arctic Beans container, in the style of EJB. The main contribution of the paper is to demonstrate that adaptable middleware platform can be developed using separation of concern technologies, specifically the composition filters model. |

Abstract: | With the emergence of the internet and e-commerce in the 90's new common problems arose when developing applications that span the internet. These common problems include among others scalability, robustness, networking, database usage and heterogeneity. Software developers creating internet applications saw themselves reinventing the wheel repeatedly. This lead to the creation of middleware systems that aimed to solve these common problems. This thesis will present Argos which uses a different way of building middleware systems. Argos is able to provide tailored, flexible and extensible middleware support using reflection, dependency injection, Java Management Extensions (JMX) notifications and hot deployment. The result is a platform capable of tackling domain specific challenges. It provides rapid development of feature rich applications for managing and processing information. Argos has gone through thorough testing proving production stability. |

Abstract: | A distributed file repository is described. It supports interaction between different machines used by a single user, as well as between users that share data. Files can be replicated and consistency will be maintained, or files can be shipped (copied) to a remote site. As with more traditional systems, the servers are trusted not to leak information. However, the rôle servers play is not as much the hub in the system. In particular, users are in charge of delegating acccess to files. For flexibility, delegations might take place outside of the realm of the system proper; by any means available to the users. Users can delegate access rights to local and remote users, including remote users in other domains. ACLs are used to maintain local access control; capabilities are used to access remote files. These capabilities are valid within epochs, but are immediately revoked when being used, thus being valid at-most-once. In essence, we have realized a flexible infrastructure where users can implement their own security policy. |

Abstract: | People love to take images, but are not so willing to annotate the images af-terwards with relevant tags. Manually tagging images is both subjective (dependent on annotator) and time consuming. It would be nice if the tag-ging process could be done automatically. A requirement for effective searching and retrieval of images in rapid growing online image databases is that each image has accurate and useful annotation. This thesis shows that automatic tagging of images with relevant tags is possible by using a combination of the capture location, the date/time when the image was captured and an image category. The use of image categories (together with location and date/time) ensures that many relevant tags are returned and restrict the occurrence of noisy tags to a very low level despite using a noisy image database (Flickr). Other methods used for further re-stricting noise are to restrict usage of more than one image from same user (as basis for tagging the query image) and a dynamic approach for using many images when possible, and fewer images when not many relevant im-ages are found. The designed system is able to tag an image as long as there are a sufficient number of geo-referenced and already tagged images that is relevant for the query image available on Flickr. The query image must also have been geo-referenced and it is assumed that the user provides an image category. Im-ages are processed based on which category the images belongs to, i.e. an image is processed with the best method to handle images belonging to that specific category. In short, this means that images of objects or places are processed differently than images from events. The evaluation of the system indicates that usage of image categories is very helpful when tagging images. The system finds more relevant tags and fewer noisy tags than baseline systems using only location. It also performs good compared to a system using both location and content-based image analysis. |

Abstract: | This thesis covers the design, implementation and evaluation of a configuration tool for process oriented Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) programming. In addition it will examine if and how a process network can be used to control sensors and communication channels on an UAV in flight. NORUT-IT is currently developing a sensor platform based on UAVs. The mission computer software they have at the moment have room for improvement when it comes down to issues regarding routing and prioritizing between available network connections. One issue that has been identified is not being able to route between multiple available networks. They have to predefine which network connection the UAV should use to connect to the ground station when it is in flight. It will use this connection the entire flight even if a faster and/or cheaper network connection is available in some areas of the mission. Together with this issue, having a platform with a number of sensors working together, will be challenging to configure and might require programming skills to some degree to set up correctly. Communicating sequential processing(CSP) have properties that can help in building concurrent, reliable and scalable programs. By using CSP and a process configuration tool, the complexity of configuring the mission computer of an UAV can be reduced. The implementation will demonstrate a tool that are believed to be intuitive and will lower the challenge of configuring a process network intended to control the sensors and communication channels on an UAV. The process network creator tool have a graphical interface and a collection of premade CSP processes. It will also have the ability to convert the graphical representation of the process network into a running CSP process. |

Abstract: | Accessing route information should be easy. Today, most collective transport companies distribute timeta- bles online as electronic documents and in paper format. These solutions are outdated and cumbersome to use. However, systems have been built to make the task of finding route information easy, and to replace these formats. Most of these systems, still, have limitations. They rely on users knowing the name of the bus stops, and the destination is left out when finding information. In this thesis we present a system that is able to find travel alternatives based on two parameters, the user's current location and the destination. Successful tests and experiments have proved that our system can be useful for people that does not know the following; the name of the bus stops, where the bus stops are located, what route to use, and where to get of the bus. We also suggest an architecture where our system is integrated as part of a personal cloud. |

Abstract: | In this report we define the semantics of a language for dynamic QoS expressions which can be evaluated at run-time for conformance. We define how expressions can be constructed from atomic expressions termed 'basic profiles' using composition operators. Two such operators are defined: The sum ( '+' ) which corresponds to simple conjunction and component-sum ('Å') which assume that the operands denote properties of separate environments and therefore must be satisfied separately. Based on those, algorithms for conformance checking any pair of expressions can be developed. Concrete models are typically defined for specific application domains, they define the basic profile space and explicitly establishes conformance relationships between basic profiles. These are essentially sets of axioms from which we can infer conformance. |

Abstract: | In this thesis we present the development of a distributed and parallel environment which offers functionality to robots to support them in their task performance. We want the environment to be a framework where students can experiment with robots, and in which we can arrange robot competitions. Our motivation for this thesis is an earlier developed robot system at our department. It was used as an instrument to demonstrate the principles and practice of distributed and high performance parallel computing. The system was used by students on advanced courses on cluster architecture and programming, and popular competitions were held in it. The old system had many infrastructure demands and had to be closed. We want to make a new system that has less infrastructure demands and more functionality. The environment has control over a certain amount of work space where the robots can operate. Within this work space, the environment offers functionality that includes context awareness, location, mapping, naming, and structured interfaces for interaction between the different components. Users can control the robots through the environment, and they assign tasks to the robots. Users can also download extensions to robots through the environment, and robots can upload data to the environment. The state of the environment, the robots and the work space is visualized on a display wall. Users can interact with this visualization and assign simple tasks through it. |

Abstract: | OOPP is a component based middleware platform with support for complex distributed applications. The main goal of OOPP is to create an expressive programming model for distributed applications where by default details are hidden for the programmer. When necessary, reflection is used to expose and sometimes modify these details. All interaction with an OOPP component are specified by its component model and a at set of well-defined interfaces. The component model specifies how a component interacts with the runtime. The set of interfaces specifies how a component interacts with other components. An OOPP application is created by combining a set of OOPP components. OOPP Studio can be used to create and manage such an application. This paper gives an overview of the OOPP programming model and discusses in more details OOPP Studio. OOPP Studio is a powerful graphical tool used to build, deploy, and manage a distributed OOPP application. |

text: Baby > Your Life Fun Ways to Lose the Baby Weight Get ideas for dropping the pounds without getting trapped in the gym. Photo: Veer Sure, you're itching to shed those post-baby pounds ASAP. But take a hint from Karen Nordahl, MD, cofounder of Fit to Deliver International, who suggests cutting yourself some slack. "It took nine months to put it on; give yourself at least nine months to take it off," she says. To make the most of that time, focusing on fun activities will definitely be more effective." If [exercise] is something that a woman has to do, she'll be less likely to do it regularly," says Dr. Nordahl. So, to aid the bulging battle, here are a few mommy workout ideas with a little extra spice. Wii! It's amazing how much more enjoyable a workout can be when it comes in video-game form. "Love the Hula Hoop and boxing," says KG91705. The Wii won't give you all the exercise you need, but it can be a fun supplement that concentrates on your core. Get your partner to join in -- to lose a little "baby fat" of their own. Explore Choose free-time activities that necessitate walking. Hit up local festivals, schedule lunches with friends and explore nearby parks, museums and playgrounds. Before heading out, La Reine Chabut, author of Lose That Baby Fat!, suggests that you start the day with a 10-minute walk in your neighborhood. "It will help put [you] in the frame of mind for exercise and get [your] circulation going for the day ahead." And for maximum benefits, pay attention to your stance. "It's easy to get hunched forward [when pushing a stroller]," warns Nordahl. "You have to be conscious of posture." If you can't get motivated to hoof it alone, try a class. Nordahl is a big fan of Stroller Strides, a fitness program that not only involves baby, but inspires some great (and much needed) interaction with other moms. Either way, strap on a Fitbit, and you'll know just how far -- and how fast -- you've wandered. Talk about multitasking. Yoga, Pilates and barre Postnatal yoga, Pilates and barre classes are great ways to tone up and empty your mind of burp cloths and diapers for a bit. According to Holly Jean Cosner, instructor at YogaWorks, NYC, and author of PeeWee Pilates, "Pilates targets the core which consists of three layers of abdominal muscles -- all of which are overstretched to make room for baby -- [as well as] the hips, buttocks, lower back, and pelvic floor. Basically all the areas hit hardest during pregnancy." And there's good news on the child-care front: mommy-and-me classes abound. "Babies love having mom on the floor with them, at their level," says Cosner. Baby will learn to value exercise, and you'll have a little partner smiling up at your Downward Dog. Dance Come on, there's nothing more fun (or better for your legs) than good boogie. And there's no greater excuse to make a fool of yourself than playing with baby. "Put on the music for 10 minutes, twirl your baby and have a ball," says Chabut. "It's a great way to get in some cardio and your baby will love it!" (Remember to spend a lot of time grooving at baby's level -- it'll give you killer thighs.) Martial arts You have to take it easy for a few months, but not forever. Once your body has healed and you have your OB's permission for strenuous exercise, go for whatever workout gets you going. If you like a good challenge (and a lot of sweat), check out martial arts classes. Kickboxing, karate, and capoeira are great exercise, and the focus (and burn) can make you feel like one uber-powerful and put-together mama. Just get your doctor is on-board with the plan, and ease in slowly to avoid injury. -- Erin van Vuuren See More: Exercise , Mommy Life Previous Article: First Valentine's Day with Baby Next Article: Get the Help You Want When Baby Comes Home How to Revamp Your Wardrobe Post-Baby How the heck do you manage to look (and feel) hot while you're a new mom?

hi all, anyone with experience with either of these? i can get warmly yours for a cheaper price though directbuy. the contractor sent me an estimate including installation for suntouch radiant heating, which was about $1700 for about a 5X7' space. thanks! |
Follow-Up Postings:
How is it going to be installed-self leveling compound or thinset troweled on? Are the wires plan wires or is it embedded in a mat system? I spent about spent about $450 for my Suntouch WarmWire system. This included the wire, the thermostat with temp probe, extra temp probe, and mounting straps. This did not include the plastic lath about $50 (cant remember); self leveling compound x 5 bags at $30/bag; foam self stick 1/4x3/4 window insulation that I used around the periphery (to stop flow of SLC into wall space); cheap caulk to caulk all the openings, edges, and between the joints of the subfloor; staples; self leveling primer. And of course labor, in this case mine and my DH. The mat type wire is more expensive but there is no lath needed. This is my experience and I could have missed something. I have only done 2 floors now. |
Both mesh mat products are fine, they've been around for a few years now and I've installed both of them. Regarding the mesh mats, look at the output of each as they are different; one 12W, the other 15W. That may or may not be important to you. Then there are the "DIY" lathe and cable setups that Enduring mentioned. No mesh mat, so you have to do the layout/spacing. A little more work, but you can get the coverage you need where you need it. |

I used Warmly Yours a few years ago, on a DIY install, and the company was good to work with. When I figured out that I needed to change the layout based on my changing the angle of the peninsula, their technical support staff worked up a new workable layout the same afternoon that I contacted them. Also since I was embedding the mesh in the thinset beneath the tile (rather than using SLC) I really appreciate the small device that they provide that connects to the wires while you are installing the tile, and it will give an immediate beep if you break or cut a wire. |
thanks for the responses. i hear suntouch uses double wiring which almost eliminates the electromagnetic field, and the company is hugely promoting this fact. do you think this is at all important? |
Hi, sorry I can't answer your last question. But let me add to my comment above that my electrician wanted me to install 240v instead of the 110v option. He will hook it up to the electrical panel. And as bob_cville mentions, an ohm meter is needed to check the integrity of the system as you are installing the wires and floor covering. |

Re: the electromagnetic field - it *may* interfere with implanted medical devices. I have a type of pacemaker - Deep Brain Stimulation - and I have to be at least 10 feet away from things like our computer printer when I'm adjusting my electrical settings on my device. In my case, though, it doesn't interfere with the actual functioning of my "pacemaker". I wonder if it'd be a problem with cardiac pacemakers? |

TMZ reports that Snoop Dogg was arrested for weed this past week while in Texas, when a drug-sniffing dog found marijuana on his bus.
Supposedly they stopped at a border patrol checkpoint in Sierra Blanca, and the border patrol and dog did a routine check in the bus. They found a prescripition bottle with a half-ounce of weed and several joints inside.
The police say that Snoop admitted that the weed belonged to him, for which he has a prescripition in California, however in Texas there is a zero tolerance policy, no matter what state your from.
The cops issued Snoop a citation for a misdemeanor drug possession and then released him.

Other Pets at Imminent Danger German Shepherd - TN Chapter Rescue
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Kizmet, a Greeneville German Shepherd Dog dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a German Shepherd Dog for sale in Greeneville, or seeking a German Shepherd Dog dog from a breeder in Greeneville.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Greeneville already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Greeneville breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even German Shepherd Dog breeders who help with German Shepherd Dog rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Greeneville paves the way for another one to be saved.

Jean is a delight to email with and very generous with her seeds. Even when I was unexpectedly away from home and the seeds she sent me were returned to her because the postal service is special, she was understanding and very courteous. Highly recommended! |
Just completed my second trade with Jean - everything was just as high quality as the first time: packaging, communication, and her patience! Thanks again, |
Thank you Jean for the wonderful seeds! I am so excited to try them - I am wishing we could just bypass winter! Seeds were packaged wonderfully, and there were certainly plenty of each! A wonderful person, and a wonderful trader! |
I could have sworn I posted something previously but seems I didn't. I traded with Jean about a month or so ago and was very pleased. Great communication, very informative and helpful (being new to trading, Jean gave me a few pointers and never made me feel like I wasn't "part of the club"). I would trade with and recommend trading with Jean again and to anyone! |
Hi, again! Just wanted to say thanks so much for the bonus Hibiscus seeds you sent me, you thoughtful generous person, you! :) Should've posted this a while back, but I haven't been feeling well lately. Only today have I been able to get back on the computer in earnest for the last 6 days. |
Just finished a trade with Jean, what a lovely lady! She kept me updated every step of the way, and was super nice and generous- she sent many wonderful extras that matched my "wants." She also showed me some links and related her own experiences to help me sprout the canna seeds that she sent to me. Thank you, Jean! |
Jean is a great trader and nice person. I highly recommend her and look forward to future trades with her. |
Fantastic trade with Jean. Prompt, great packaging, would gladly trade again! |
Great trader. Very understanding when I goofed up. |

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Bristol!
Facts about Bristol
- Breed: Maine Coon
- Color: Gray, Blue Or Silver Tabby
- Age: Young
- Sex: Female
- Hair: Long
Bristol's Info...
I am up to date with shots, good with kids, good with dogs, and not good with cats.
What a beauty.....A blue-longhaired Maine-coon mix...very petite...approximately 6 pounds.....very friendly...chirps to you..a wonderful pet...now at Petsmart in Summerville..Call 460-7768.
Other Pets at Caradobe Doberman and Feline
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Bristol, a No.Charleston Maine Coon cat was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Maine Coon for sale in No.Charleston, or seeking a Maine Coon cat from a breeder in No.Charleston.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in No.Charleston already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a No.Charleston breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Maine Coon breeders who help with Maine Coon rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in No.Charleston paves the way for another one to be saved.

Bomber Released After 25 Years
By Rick Brough
Originally aired July 29, 2013.
Earlier this month, Adam Swapp was paroled from prison, after 25 years in confinement for dynamiting a Kamas LDS stake center, and leading a standoff at a compound near Marion that led to the death of a corrections officer. The news caught the attention of Summit County officials. Rick Brough has more.

Celebrations erupted in Kangema constituency Tuesday as former MP Tirus Ngahu easily defended the seat becoming the first TNA party MP-elect in Murang'a County.
Mr Ngahu made history again as he was the first TNA MP in the last parliament following a by-election late last year which was occasioned by the death of area MP and the Environment minister the late John Michuki.
The MP-elect garnered 31,939 votes toppling his closest rival Mr Duncan Githiga of Saba Saba Asili who came a distance second with 4,542.
Mr Mbatia Mwangi (ODM) was third with 326 votes while Kenda party's George Mureithi garnered 66 votes.
The Kangema Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission returning officer Mr Isaac Ruto announced Mr Ngahu the winner of the national assembly race to the ululation of the voters who had gathered at Muguru hall tallying centre.
There was song and dance on the streets of Kangema town as the MP-elect joined his constituents to celebrate the victory.
Mr Ruto, the returning officer said the area had a 94 per cent voter turnout and described the process as very peaceful and orderly. The number of rejected votes was 285.
Jubilee presidential candidate Uhuru Kenyatta garnered 35,573 votes while Mr Raila Odinga of Cord Alliance came a distance second with 485 votes in the constituency.
Mr Peter Kenneth, the Eagle Alliance candidate had 109 votes while Narc Kenya's Martha Karua had 94 votes.
Others were Mr James Ole Kiyiapi of RBK party (57), ARK's Mr Abduba Dida (34) and, Safina's Paul Muite garnered 15 votes.
"The voter turnout was very high at 95 per cent and voters carried out the exercise in peace," the IEBC official told the Nation.
Mr Ruto said the process went well apart from the accidental fatal shooting and killing of an electoral officer by a police officer under unclear circumstances while transporting voting materials.
Ichichi polling station presiding officer Mr Mwaniki Waithanji, 35, was said to have been accidentally shot on the head by Administration police Corporal Maiywa Lonasio early Tuesday morning.
Mr Lonasio is attached to the Kangema District Officer's office.
At the same time, provisional results indicated that TNA party had taken an early lead in the Governor, Senator and Women representative races as well as the National assembly positions in six of the seven constituencies in the county.
The party Senator candidate Mr Kembi Gitura was leading with 113 342 votes while Mr Mwangi wa Iria (Governor) was ahead with 97,649 votes.
Women Representative candidate Sabina Wanjiru Chege was leading with 133,125 votes.

Well, finally....here it is! ha Finally got photobucket to work. Kept saying the pics were downloaded, but they weren't there.
Ok, got this sign and 2 others at the TS for 50 cents each so there will be more projects to come using those. The bottom part it metal and was a little hard to paint on even after I spray painted it first. This pattern is one by Renee Mullins from the book Plum Purdy Frosty Friends. I think Luvs may have painted him before?? In the book the bear is holding the welcome sign so I just changed it around a little to fit my project. Of course I noticed in the picture that I forgot to do the line work around his scarf and shirt. Went back and did that, but you are getting the without picture cause it took me so long to get those downloaded, I'm not gonna try it again. ha Anyway, hope you enjoy my project since I kept you hanging waiting for it for so long. ha This may go to my brother?? Not sure yet. I'll hang it up and when he comes to visit if he says anything about it I'll just give it to him. ha ~Anj |
Follow-Up Postings:
Anj, Your bear was worth the wait. Beautiful job painting and shading it. Can hardly wait to see your next projects with your grat buys at TS. I think posting pictures is a great way to see what we've missed alright. I'm like you when it comes to finishing and reposting, not always gonna happen. Your bear reminds me of Tonya Kennedy's painting. Wanna share details with us? Punk |
- Posted by luvstocraft (My Page) on Fri, Oct 9, 09 at 23:04
Yippee, you finally got Photobucket to work for you! Those signs were neat finds, looks like a good size and shape. Yes, I did use that pattern on my neighbor's tub she was throwing away. I really like Renee Mullin's designs too. I'd love to get a couple more of her books, I only have a couple now. I've been seeing several bear items at the TS lately. Some were so neat that I was wishing I knew someone who was into bears that I could buy them for them. LOL I know what you mean about seeing things you missed in the picture--I went back and fixed a couple of e's on my coffee mirror after I had posted the pic here too! Luvs |
Anj, Wow you can tell I was multitasking when I posted to this. Sorry about the ? Punk |
Anj..........he is bearry cute! I love the heart handing from the moon and your trees are awesome! Isn't it funny that we can pick out what we left out much easier in a picture. Sure glad you are back with us again! Belle |
- Posted by paintingfool (My Page) on Sun, Oct 11, 09 at 23:24
Anj, I love how the trees are leaning over to him. And of course he is the cutest!! |
Thanks you guys. Glad ya'll liked him. Sorry it takes me forever to get any projects done. I will try harder to more done and posted. =) This was my first time doing a black background. I really like it. Luvs~ I was really excited when I found those signs at the TS! I think they originally came from Roberts Craft Store. They are pretty nice sized. My brother is single and has a bunch of bears, elk, deer and fishing stuff in his house. Guess you could just say he has a wildlife theme going on. He keeps the taxidermist in business. ha Model ships and nautical things in his bedroom. He may or may not want the sign, but I thought it was cute and have been wanting to do it since you did your tub. I thought that was the one, but couldn't remember. I love Renee Mullins too so I'm sure we'll both be doing some of the same patterns as we go along...I'm sure you'll get to them before I do. ha Thanks again everybody. ~Anj |
Anj, It doesn't matter how often you can post but I always enjoy everthing you make. I for one want you to take care of loved ones first and then come and play after your done with that task. That being said, we all understant why you don't always have projects posted several times a week.haha I have some of Renee Mullins books but don't grab them much when painting. This would be great in our cabin. We have alot of bears and other wildlife in there. Let us know what DB thinks of this. Sounds like he is the almighty hunter. Maybe this is why he's single. He's to busy hunting the four legged deer instead of a 2 legged dear! Punk |
Anj.... I am retired with only my DH and myself to look after and I still don't have enough time to paint!!!!! Everyday there seems to be "something" that needs to be done beyond the general housekeeping. My very DH is not from the generation who thinks of helping with that area of our lives and you'd think with only the two of us housekeeping would be a snap...WRONG or I'm really doing something wrong. Anyway, it is always a joy to see what you have created, so just keep them coming as you can. Belle |
- Posted by luvstocraft (My Page) on Tue, Oct 13, 09 at 17:53
Belle, I can totally relate--mine isn't from the generation that learned to pitch in and help with household chores either--but he is pretty easy going, never complains if something doesn't get done and will heat something up for himself if need be. As for finishing projects, I sure seem to go in spurts! I get several things painted and posted then just seem to stall on getting on to the next ones. This week, I have little GD all week so my painting is more in the category of kiddie crafts. She decided that we should make our own colored leaves, so we collected some magnolia leaves and painted them pretty colors yesterday. Then she wrote her name on some with a gold paint pen. Gave one to my friend and another to a neighbor, then we made a "book" with the rest. She wrote the color on the paper and then we hot glued the leaf on it--this will be for Mom and Dad when they get back. I have some wooden cutouts that we will probably paint sometime this week too. Guess what? We are getting a little bit of rain finally. We sure do need it--bet the trees love having the dirt and smog washed off finally! Punk, is your weather still cold or did it warm back up a bit? Anj, I always enjoy seeing your projects--but mostly I just enjoy hearing from you OFTEN! I like hearing what's going on with your family, hearing your ideas for making gifts, or the classes you sometimes do--so please don't stay away just because you don't have a completed project, okay? DH and I still went for our senior Tuesday at the movies--saw "Couples Retreat" (I think that's the name) It was a cute show with beautiful scenery and happy endings. ;o) Gotta go by the grocery store and then go get the little one. She is so fun and full of energy--and I love all those hugs and kisses! ;o) Luvs |

How is a telephone Denbighshire psychic different from a psychic you go and visit or psychics that come to your home! There no difference in visiting a psychic or telephoning a psychic. All our psychics from Denbighshire receive information through the subconscious, giving you help and advice. Many psychic advisers say they can only do psychic readings with the subject in front of themselves. We believe many psychic advisers haven't tried to give readings over the telephone. Psychic advisers can connect with you through many ways, the sound vibration of your voice, and the energy around you.
We believe psychic readings over the telephone is much more cost effective. Talking to our telephone psychic adviser won't cost you in fuel cost. With our psychic advisers you can choose the amount of time you would like to speak with a psychic adviser. All psychic advisers you have to visit have a set price for psychic readings.
Psychic readings via telephone and text are much cheaper and more value for money. Our Denbighshire psychic advisers are on the telephone day & night giving expert advice to all our visitors.
