Andre Romelle Young (born February 18, 1965), known by his stage name Dr. Dre, is an American record producer, rapper and entrepreneur. He is the founder and current CEO of Aftermath Entertainment and Beats Electronics. Dre was previously the co-owner and artist of Death Row Records. He has produced albums for and overseen the careers of many rappers, including Snoop Dogg, Eminem, Xzibit, 50 Cent, The Game and more recently Kendrick Lamar. He is credited as a key figure in the popularization of West Coast G-funk, a style of rap music characterized as synthesizer-based with slow, heavy beats. In 2011, Dr. Dre was ranked as the third richest figure in the American hip hop scene by Forbes with a net worth of $250 million.
Dre began his career as a member of the World Class Wreckin' Cru and later found fame with the influential gangsta rap group N.W.A with Eazy-E, Ice Cube, MC Ren, and DJ Yella, which popularized the use of explicit lyrics in rap to detail the violence of street life. His 1992 solo debut The Chronic, released under Death Row Records, led him to become one of the best-selling American performing artists of 1993 and to win a Grammy Award for the single "Let Me Ride". That same year he produced Death Row labelmate Snoop Dogg's quadruple platinum debut Doggystyle.
The discography of American rapper Eminem includes eight released studio albums, four compilations, two extended plays, thirty-one singles, five video albums and one soundtrack. His music has been released on record labels Web Entertainment and Interscope Records, along with subsidiaries Aftermath Entertainment, Goliath Artists and Shady Records. Eminem is the best-selling hip-hop artist of all-time and the best-selling artist of the 2000s with US album sales at over 32.2 million during the decade. Eminem has sold over 42 million albums in the United States as a solo artist. His worldwide albums sales stand at more than 100 million. He has earned forty-two platinum certifications from the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).[A] In this discography, music videos and collaborations are included as well.
In 1996, Eminem released his first studio album, Infinite, under Web Entertainment. The album sold about a thousand copies and failed to rank on the national charts. After signing a contract with Interscope Records and Aftermath Entertainment, the rapper released his sophomore and commercial debut album The Slim Shady LP in 1999 and reached the number two spot on the 200Billboard, and received four platinum certifications in the United States from the RIAA. In the same year, the rapper, along with manager Paul Rosenberg, founded the imprint label Shady Records. In the subsequent year, Eminem released his third studio album The Marshall Mathers LP, which sold 1.76 million copies in its first week of distribution, breaking records for the fastest-selling hip hop album of all-time and the fastest-selling solo album in the United States. With more than ten million copies sold, the album was the third best-selling record of the year in the United States, where it also earned nine platinum certifications. The lead single "The Real Slim Shady" became Eminem's first song to enter in the top ten of the Hot 100Billboard. "Stan" was the most successful single outside of the States, while it failed to reach the top fifty in the rapper's home country.
The discography of American rapper 50 Cent consists of four studio albums, five promotional singles, nine mixtapes, seventy music videos, two video albums, four compilation albums, one soundtrack album and fifty-four singles, including twenty-five as a featured artist. 50 Cent signed to Shady Records in 2002 and released his debut studio album, Get Rich or Die Tryin', on February 4, 2003. The album peaked at number one in the US 200Billboard and performed well in international markets. It features the number-one singles "In da Club" and "21 Questions" and also includes the singles "P.I.M.P." and "If I Can't". 50 Cent collaborated with American rapper Lil' Kim on "Magic Stick", which peaked at number two in the US.
In 2005, he released his second studio album, The Massacre. The album charted at number one in the US, as well as reaching the top ten of many album charts worldwide, and sold 4.83 million copies in the United States in 2005, the second highest sales count by any album that year. The Massacre includes the US top-three hits "Disco Inferno" and "Just a Lil Bit", and the US number-one hit "Candy Shop", which peaked in the top ten of many charts worldwide. A reissue of The Massacre produced the single "Outta Control" (Remix), which peaked at number six in the US. In November 2005, 50 Cent starred in the movie Get Rich or Die Tryin', and recorded four singles for the film's soundtrack: the international hits "Hustler's Ambition" and "Window Shopper", and also "Best Friend" and "I'll Whip Ya Head Boy".
"Crack a Bottle" is a hip hop song by American rappers Eminem, Dr. Dre, and 50 Cent and is the first single from Eminem's sixth studio album Relapse. On February 12, 2009, the song broke the first week digital sales record with 418,000 downloads, topping the previous record held by "Live Your Life" by T.I. featuring Rihanna. This record was broken again the following week by "Right Round" by Flo Rida. The song won the Grammy Award for Best Rap Performance by a Duo or Group in 2010. As of June 19, 2011, it has sold almost 2 million downloads in the United States.
Aftermath, Shady, G-Unit, Interscope (current)

He rose to fame with the release of his albums Get Rich or Die Tryin' (2003) and The Massacre (2005). His album Get Rich or Die Tryin' has been certified eight times platinum by the RIAA.
Dawaun Parker (born May 9, 1984) is an American record producer and rapper. Dawaun Parker is a staff songwriter and producer for Dr. Dre's Aftermath Entertainment label. After receiving his first formal credit on 50 Cent's Get Rich or Die Tryin' soundtrack Parker contributed to several songs on Busta Rhymes #1 album, The Big Bang, as well as Jay-Z's return record, Kingdom Come. Most recently, Parker co-wrote the number 1 single, "Crack a Bottle", by Eminem, Dr. Dre and 50 Cent, and co-produced nearly every track on Relapse.
On October 20, 2010, Parker released his first single, Lost, co-produced by Dr. Dre.
The Canadian Hot 100 is a music singles popularity chart issued weekly by magazineBillboard which ranks songs in Canada.
The chart is similar to Billboard's U.S.-based Hot 100 in that it combines sales via digital downloads, as measured by Nielsen SoundScan, and Canadian radio audience levels as measured by Nielsen BDS. Canada's airplay chart is the result of monitoring more than 100 stations representing rock, country, adult contemporary and Top 40 genres.
Hip hop is a broad conglomerate of artistic forms that originated within a marginalized subculture in the South Bronx amongst black and latino youth during the 1970s in New York City. It is characterized by four distinct elements, all of which represent the different manifestations of the culture: rap music (oral), turntablism or "DJing" (aural), breaking (physical) and graffiti art (visual). Despite their contrasting methods of execution, they find unity in their common association to the poverty and violence underlying the historical context that birthed the culture. It was as a means of providing a reactionary outlet from such urban hardship that "Hip Hop" initially functioned, a form of self-expression that could reflect upon, proclaim an alternative to, try and challenge or merely evoke the mood of the circumstances of such an environment. Even while it continues in contemporary history to develop globally in a flourishing myriad of diverse styles, these foundational elements provide stability and coherence to the culture. The term is frequently used mistakenly to refer in a confining fashion to the mere practice of rap music.
The origin of the culture stems from the block parties of the Ghetto Brothers when they would plug the amps for their instruments and speakers into the lampposts on 163rd Street and Prospect Avenue and DJ Kool Herc at 1520 Sedgwick Avenue, where Herc would mix samples of existing records with his own shouts to the crowd and dancers. Kool Herc is credited as the "father" of Hip hop. DJ Afrika Bambaataa of the hip hop collective Zulu Nation outlined the pillars of hip hop culture, to which he coined the terms: MCing, DJing, B-boying and graffiti writing.
In journalism, a human interest story is a feature story that discusses a person or people in an emotional way. It presents people and their problems, concerns, or achievements in a way that brings about interest, sympathy or motivation in the reader or viewer.
Human interest stories may be "the story behind the story" about an event, organization, or otherwise faceless historical happening, such as about the life of an individual soldier during wartime, an interview with a survivor of a natural disaster, a random act of kindness or profile of someone known for a career achievement.

Hi, I was wondering how/what you guys were doing to manage and promote your MI yeast bank? We have one in Chicago but it kind of fizzled. We are looking for some fresh and creative ideas from other people who are running similar yeast banks. Thank you!
Well, I haven't gotten any inquiries about the yeast I've listed. And I forgot to check for yeast the last time I brewed something I didn't already have yeast for. I don't know if others have made more use of it. I also haven't been able to brew very often, so that has contributed to me forgetting about the yeast library.
ok. thanks.
it's pretty much abandoned I think... I dunno.

'Lighten up." That's what defenders of Obama's national security adviser, Gen. James Jones, are saying. Appearing before the Washington Institute for Near East Policy, General Jones introduced his remarks with the following story:
A Taliban militant gets lost and is wandering around the desert looking for water. He finally arrives at a store run by a Jew and asks for water. The Jewish vendor tells him he doesn't have any water but can gladly sell him a tie. The Taliban . . . begins to curse and yell. The Jew, unmoved, offers the rude militant an idea: Beyond the hill, two miles down the road, there is a restaurant; they can sell you water. . . . An hour later the Taliban is back. He tells the merchant: "Your brother tells me I need a tie to get into the restaurant."
Jones got a hearty laugh from the crowd, which included many Jews. But really, you would think that, by 2010, public officials would know better than to traffic in ethnic, religious, or racial jokes. A senior adviser on Middle East policy from an administration already perceived as unfriendly toward Israel might particularly wish to avoid greedy-Jew anecdotes. Or should we lighten up?
The joke is the least of it. Though in obviously poor taste, it sheds little light on why the Obama administration has brought relations with Israel to their lowest point since the state's founding. No, the Obamaites are not motivated by anti-Semitism. Their sentiments are actually more dangerous. President Obama believes that he understands Israel's best interests better than Israel's American supporters and even Israelis themselves do.
Speaking at Cairo University in June of 2009, the president explained that looking at the Israeli/Palestinian conflict "from only one side or the other" would "blind one to the truth." That truth, he continued, was that the only possible solution was "two states where Israelis and Palestinians each live in peace and security." Obama could see, even if the benighted parties could not, "that [a two-state solution] is in Israel's interest, Palestine's interest, America's interest, and the world's interest." He said the same thing upon welcoming Palestinian Authority president Mahmoud Abbas to the Oval Office. Earlier this month, the president said at a press conference that while "we can't want [peace] more than [the parties] do," we are "setting out very clearly to both sides our belief that not only is it in the interests of each party to resolve these conflicts but it's also in the interest of the United States."
To Israelis, who daily read of thwarted terrorist attacks, who gave up land for peace in Gaza and were rewarded with thousands of missiles fired at Israeli civilians, who can watch Palestinian TV teach Palestinian children that "their" country stretches from the Mediterranean to the Jordan River, who see public squares on the West Bank named in honor of mass murderers of Israeli civilians, who see Syria attempting to build a nuclear reactor, Iran closing in on a bomb, and a festering civil war between Hamas and Fatah, the road to a two-state solution may not appear so obvious. Perhaps they lack Obama's clairvoyance.
In addition to the conceit that President Obama understands Israel's interests better than Israelis do, the administration has also repeatedly stressed in recent weeks that a solution to the Israeli/Palestinian dispute is vital to American interests, and to saving American "blood and treasure." Settling the Israeli/Palestinian dispute, the Obamaites believe, is more important for America's long-term interests than preventing Iran from gaining nuclear weapons. In fact, multiple emissaries have warned Israel against taking military action against Iran.
The administration's strong-arming of Israel didn't stop with the infamous 40-minute scolding that Secretary of State Clinton delivered to Prime Minister Netanyahu when Israel had the temerity to build homes in its own capital. Secretary Clinton intensified the pressure last week, complaining that Israel's recent steps to ease movement on the West Bank were "not sufficient to prove to the Palestinians that this embrace is sincere." The Palestinians scarcely need a representative since the administration is negotiating for them.
This is of a piece with the Obama administration's invertebrate approach to the rest of the Middle East. President Obama bows low to the Saudi king, has sent multiple emissaries to Syria's Bashar Assad, and has proclaimed a new dawn with Iran. In that same spirit, the State Department issued a plaintive request last week for the release of three American hikers Iran has been holding in prison for nine months. Failing that, our diplomats pleaded that the hikers' families be permitted to visit them.
The Obama administration is at least consistent. The foreign policy of self-abasement, weakness, and dithering that it thinks best for the United States is the one it is attempting to impose upon Israel.

ABSTRACT: Logic minimization is an important aspect of the digital Computer Aided Design flows of both Application Specific Integrated Circuits and Field Programmable Gate Arrays. Peephole optimization is one of the effective logic minimization technique employed in design of digital circuits. This paper presents a novel automated peephole optimization based approach for logic minimization that interlaces commercially available ASIC-based and FPGA-based synthesis tools in an alternating fashion. Experimenting the technique on standard benchmark circuits resulted in a logic reduction of upto 59.71% and 73.40%; delay reduction of upto 36.64% and 57.78%; and, power reduction of upto 54.12% and 57.14% when compared with the output generated by current commercial state-of-the-art ASIC and FPGA synthesis tools respectively. Importantly, this technique can be adopted by design houses at no extra cost. Using the addition operation as a case study the paper also demonstrates how to use the proposed methodology to automatically design arithmetic circuits that meet different area and performance budgets.Journal of Low Power Electronics 03/2014; 10(1). - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Excessive power dissipation can cause high voltage droop on the power grid, leading to timing failures. Since test power dissipation is typically higher than functional power, test peak power minimization becomes very important in order to avoid test induced timing failures. Test cubes for large designs are usually dominated by don't care bits, making X-leveraging algorithms promising for test power reduction. In this paper, we show that X-bit statistics can be used to reorder test vectors on scan based architectures realized using toggle-masking flip flops. Based on this, the paper also presents an algorithm namely balanced X-filling that when applied to ITC'99 circuits, reduced the peak capture power by 7.4% on the average and 40.3% in the best case. Additionally XStat improved the running time for Test Vector Ordering and X-filling phases compared to the best known techniques.Journal of Low Power Electronics 03/2014; 10(1). -
Conference Paper: ProCA: Progressive Configuration Aware Design Methodology for Low Power Stochastic ASICs
[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: With increasing integration of capabilities into mobile application processors, a host of imaging operations that were earlier performed in software are now implemented in hardware. Though imaging applications are inherently error resilient, the complexity of such designs has increased over time and thus identifying logic that can be leveraged for energy-quality trade-offs has become difficult. The paper proposes a Progressive Configuration Aware (ProCA) criticality analysis framework, that is 10X faster than the state-of-the-art, to identify logic which is functionally-critical to output quality. This accounts for the various modes of operation of the design. Through such a framework, we demonstrate how a low powered tunable stochastic design can be derived. The proposed methodology uses layered synthesis and voltage scaling mechanisms as primary tools for power reduction. We demonstrate the proposed methodology on a production quality imaging IP implemented in 28nm low leakage technology. For the tunable stochastic imaging IP, we gain up to 10.57% power reduction in exact mode and up to 32.53% power reduction in error tolerant mode (30dB PSNR), with negligible design overhead.Proceedings of the 2014 27th International Conference on VLSI Design and 2014 13th International Conference on Embedded Systems; 01/2014 -
Conference Paper: PinPoint: An algorithm for enhancing diagnostic resolution using capture cycle power information
[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Conventional ATPG tools help in detecting only the equivalence class to which a fault belongs and not the fault itself. This paper presents PinPoint, a technique that further divides the equivalence class into smaller sets based on the capture power consumed by the circuit under test in the presence of different faults in it, thus aiding in narrowing down on the fault. Applying the technique on ITC benchmark circuits yielded significant improvement in diagnostic resolution.Test Symposium (ETS), 2013 18th IEEE European; 01/2013 -
Conference Paper: Tunable stochastic computing using layered synthesis and temperature adaptive voltage scaling
[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: With increasing computing power in mobile devices, conserving battery power (or extending battery life) has become crucial. This together with the fact that most applications running on these mobile devices are increasingly error tolerant, has created immense interest in stochastic (or inexact) computing. In this paper, we present a framework wherein, the devices can operate at varying error tolerant modes while significantly reducing the power dissipated. Further, in very deep sub-micron technologies, temperature has a crucial role in both performance and power. The proposed framework presents a novel layered synthesis optimization coupled with temperature aware supply and body bias voltage scaling to operate the design at various "tunable" error tolerant modes. We implement the proposed technique on a H.264 decoder block in industrial 28nm low leakage technology node, and demonstrate reductions in total power varying from 30% to 45%, while changing the operating mode from exact computing to inaccurate/error-tolerant computing.Quality Electronic Design (ASQED), 2013 5th Asia Symposium on; 01/2013 -
Article: Thermal-Safe Dynamic Test Scheduling Method Using On-Chip Temperature Sensors for 3D MPSoCs
Journal of Low Power Electronics 12/2012; 8(5):684-695. - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Buffers in on-chip networks constitute a significant proportion of the power consumption and area of the interconnect, and hence reducing them is an important problem. Application-specific designs have nonuniform network utilization, thereby requiring a buffer-sizing approach that tackles the nonuniformity. Also, congestion effects that occur during network operation need to be captured when sizing the buffers. Many NoCs are designed to operate in multiple voltage/frequency islands, with interisland communication taking place through frequency converters. To this end, we propose a two-phase algorithm to size the switch buffers in network-on-chips (NoCs) considering support for multiple-frequency islands. Our algorithm considers both the static and dynamic effects when sizing buffers. We analyze the impact of placing frequency converters (FCs) on a link, as well as pack and send units that effectively utilize network bandwidth. Experiments on many realistic system-on-Chip (SoC) benchmark show that our algorithm results in 42% reduction in amount of buffering when compared to a standard buffering approach.Journal of Electrical and Computer Engineering. 01/2012; 2012. - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Error concealment in video communication is becoming increasingly important because of the growing interest in video delivery over unreliable channels such as wireless networks and the Internet. A subclass of this error concealment in video communication is known as motion vector recovery (MVR). MVR techniques try to retrieve the lost motion information in the compressed video streams based on the available information in the locality (both spatial and temporal) of the lost data. The activities and practice in the area of MVR-based error concealment during the last two decades has been mainly elaborated here. A performance comparison of the prominent MVR techniques has also been presented.IETE Technical Review 01/2011; · 0.93 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The H.264 encoded video is highly sensitive to loss of motion vectors during transmission. Several statistical techniques are proposed for recovering such lost motion vectors. These use only the motion vectors that belong to the macroblocks that are horizontally or vertically adjacent to the lost macroblock, to recover the latter. Intuitively this is one of the main reasons behind why these techniques yield inferior solutions in scenarios where there is a non-linear motion. This paper proposes B-Spline based statistical techniques that comprehensively address the motion vector recovery problem in the presence of different types of motions that include slow, fast/sudden, continuous and non-linear movements. Testing the proposed algorithms with different benchmark video sequences shows an average improvement of up to 2 dB in the Peak Signal to Noise Ratio of some of the recovered videos, over existing techniques. A 2 dB improvement in PSNR is very significant from an application point of view.IEEE Transactions on Broadcasting 01/2011; · 2.65 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: In the nanometer era, there has been a steady decline in the semiconductor chip manufacturing yield due to various contributing factors, such as wearout and defects due to complex processes. One of the strategies to alleviate this issue is to recover and use faulty hardware at gracefully degraded performance. A common, though naive, recovery strategy followed in the context of general purpose multicore systems is to disable the cores with faults and use only the fully functional cores. Such a coarse-granular solution is suboptimal, as the disabled cores would have many working modules which go un-utilized. The Resurrecting Operating SYstem (ROSY) presented in this paper is a step towards the development of an operating system that can work on faulty cores by adapting itself to hardware faults using software workarounds, and and utilize their working components. We consider many realistic fault models and present software workarounds for them. We have developed a framework which can be trivially plugged into a fullyfeatured x86 based OS kernel to demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed ideas. Performance evaluation using SPEC benchmarks and real-world applications show that the performance degradation of the depleted cores executing ROSY is on an average between 1.6x to 4x, depending on the fault type.Operating Systems Review. 01/2011; 45:82-84. -
Conference Paper: A Simulation Based Buffer Sizing Algorithm for Network on Chips.
[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Buffers in on-chip networks constitute a significant proportion of the power consumption and area of the interconnect. Hence, reducing the buffering overhead of Networks on Chips (NoCs) is an important problem. For application-specific designs, the network utilization across the different links and switches is non-uniform, thereby requiring a buffer sizing approach that tackles the non uniformity. Moreover, congestion effects that occur during network operation needs to be captured when sizing the buffers. To this end, we propose a two-phase algorithm to size the switch buffers in NoCs. Our algorithm considers both the static (based on bandwidth and latency requirements) and dynamic (based on simulation) effects when sizing buffers. Our experiments show that the application of the algorithm results in 42% reduction in amount of buffering required to meet the application constraints when compared to a standard buffering approach.IEEE Computer Society Annual Symposium on VLSI, ISVLSI 2011, 4-6 July 2011, Chennai, India; 01/2011 - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Workload optimized systems consisting of large number of general and special purpose cores, and with a support for shared memory programming, are slowly becoming prevalent. One of the major impediments for effective parallel programming on these systems is lock-based synchronization. An alternate synchronization solution called Transactional Memory (TM) is currently being explored.We observe that most of the TM design proposals in literature are catered to match the constrains of general purpose computing platforms. Given the fact that workload optimized systems utilize wider hardware design spaces and on-chip parallelism, we argue that Hardware Transactional Memory (HTM) can be a suitable implementation choice for these systems. We re-evaluate the criteria to be satisfied by a HTM and identify possible scope for relaxations in the context of workload optimized systems. Based on the relaxed criteria, we demonstrate the scope for building HTM design variants, such that, each variant caters to a specific workload requirement. We carry out suitable experiments to bring about the trade-off between the design variants. Overall, we show how the knowledge about the workload is extremely useful to make appropriate design choices in the workload optimized HTM.Advanced Parallel Processing Technologies - 9th International Symposium, APPT 2011, Shanghai, China, September 26-27, 2011.

Conference Paper: Post-Synthesis Circuit Techniques for Runtime Leakage Reduction.
[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: We consider the problem of reducing active mode leakage power by modifying the post-synthesis netlists of combi- national logic blocks. The stacking effect is used to reduce leakage power, but instead of a separate signal one of the inputs to the gate itself is used. The approach is studied on multiplier blocks. It is found that a significant number of nets have high probabilities of being constant at 0 or 1. In specific applications such as those having high peak to average ratio, like audio and other signal processing applications, this effect is more pronounced. We show how these signals can be used to put gates to sleep, thus saving significant leakage power. I.

ABSTRACT: This work presents a hardware implementation of an FIR filter that is self-adaptive; that responds to arbitrary frequency response landscapes; that has built-in coefficient error tolerance capabilities; and that has a minimal adaptation latency. This hardware design is based on a heuristic genetic algorithm. Experimental results show that the proposed design is more efficient than non-evolutionary designs even for arbitrary response filters. As a byproduct, the paper also presents a novel flow for the complete hardware design of what is termed as an Evolutionary System on Chip (ESoC). With the inclusion of an evolutionary process, the ESoC is a new paradigm in modern System on Chip (SoC) designs. The ESoC methodology could be a very useful structured FPGA/ASIC implementation alternative in many practical applications of FIR filters.Applied Soft Computing 01/2011; · 2.68 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: This study proposes a novel motion vector recovery (MVR) algorithm for the H.264 video coding standard, which takes into account the change in the motion vectors (MVs) in different directions. Existing algorithms for MVR are confined to use the horizontal or vertical directions to recover the lost MVs. However, in the presence of non-linear movements or a fast/sudden motion of any object in a scene of the given input video, the MVs recovered by these algorithms turn out to be inaccurate. The proposed directional interpolation-based technique can interpolate the MVs in any direction based on the tendency of motion around the lost macro block, thus making it suitable to handle non-linear or fast motions. Testing the proposed technique with different benchmark video sequences shows an average improvement 1-2-dB in the peak signal-to-noise ratio of the recovered video over existing techniques.IET Image Processing 05/2010; · 0.68 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: This paper proposes a fast statistical approach to recover lost motion vectors in H.264 video coding standard. Unlike other video coding standards, the motion vectors of H.264 cover smaller area of the video frame being encoded. This leads to a strong correlation between neighboring motion vectors, thus making H.264 standard amenable for statistical analysis to recover the lost motion vectors. This paper proposes a Pearson Correlation Coefficient based matching algorithm that speeds up the recovery of lost motion vectors with very less compromise in visual quality of the recovered video. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first attempt that employs correlation coefficient for motion vector recovery. Experimental results obtained by employing the proposed algorithm on standard benchmark video sequences show that they yield comparable quality of recovered video with significantly less computation than the best reported in the literature, thus making it suitable for real-time applications.Proc SPIE 02/2010; -
Conference Paper: Impact of Temperature on Test Quality.
[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The usage of more advanced, less mature processes during manufacturing of semiconductor devices has increased the need for performing unconventional types of testing, like temperature-testing, in order to maintain the same high quality levels. However, performing temperature-testing is costly. This paper proposes a viable low-cost alternative to temperature testing that quantifies the impact of temperature variations on the test quality and also determines optimal test conditions. The test flow proposed is empirically validated on an industrial-standard die. The results obtained show that majority of the defects that were originally detected by temperature-testing are also detected by the proposed test flow, thereby reducing the dependence on temperature testing to achieve zero-defect quality. Details of an interesting defect behavior at cold test conditions is also presented.VLSI Design 2010: 23rd International Conference on VLSI Design, 9th International Conference on Embedded Systems, Bangalore, India, 3-7 January 2010; 01/2010 - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: In a highly dynamic semiconductor manufacturing technology, the migration to the next process technology node tries to create a smaller-faster-cheaper chip. To achieve this, the integrated circuit (IC) designs are becoming more complex and new manufacturing materials/processes are introduced. Additionally, demands for sustainable yield and shorter time to volume production have to be met as they govern the profitability of the semiconductor industry. As a result, rapid yield improvement techniques are crucial to overcome huge yield losses. Any yield improvement technique typically involves detecting the yield loss (testing) and identifying its root cause (diagnosis). This paper presents a survey of the existing research work reported in the literature for test and diagnostics of nanometer chips and presents interesting open issues.IETE Technical Review 01/2010; · 0.93 Impact Factor - Journal of Low Power Electronics 12/2009; 5:429-438.

Comparing the M23 and Spacewalk software distribution systems
Package Delivery
Keeping all the Linux clients in an enterprise environment up to date can be a major logistical challenge. Many harassed administrators appreciate a good software distribution system, especially if it is a free tool that doesn't stress the IT budget.
Two mouse clicks are all it takes to install the latest version of the latest spreadsheet tool on a number of computers, and the administrator doesn't even need to leave the desk. The efficiency and automation in this scenario is made possible by package distribution programs. All package distribution programs rely on a simple principle: A central server keeps and manages all the available software packages. A client can connect and download a package, or the server can push some packages onto selected clients as directed by the administrator. A good software distribution program can also uninstall clients and install client updates.

The acclaimed entertainer and bestselling author Steve Martin and the wildly clever New Yorker cartoonist Roz Chast team up in a weird, wonderful excursion through the alphabet.
The ABCs have never had it so good. Created by two of todays wittiest, most imaginative minds, The Alphabet from A to Y with Bonus Letter Z! is a sheer delight from A to Z. In twenty-six alliterative couplets, Steve Martin conjures up much more than mere apples and zebras. Instead we meet Horace the hare, whose hairdo hides hunchbacks, and Ollie the owl, who owed Owen an oboe. Roz Chast contributes the perfect visual settings for Martins zany two-liners. Her instantly recognizable drawings are packed with humorous touches both broad and subtle.
Each rereadingand there will be manydelivers new delights and discoveries. There, hidden behind Bad Baby Bubbleducks, is a framed picture of a beatnik holding balloons; and the letter C finds clunky Clarissa all clingy and clueless adrift in a landscape cluttered with images ranging from a curiously comfortable clown to Chucks Chili stand. A smart, laugh-inducing introduction to the alphabet for young children, The Alphabet from A to Y with Bonus Letter Z! will also enchant adults with its matchless mix of the sophisticated and the silly.

At age 10, Steve Martin got a job selling guidebooks at the newly opened Disneyland. In the decade that followed, he worked in Disney's magic shop, print shop, and theater, and developed his own magic/comedy act. By age 20, studying poetry and philosophy on the side, he was performing a dozen times a week, most often at the Disney rival, Knott's Berry Farm. Obsession is a substitute for talent, he has said, and Steve Martin's focus and daring his sheer tenacity are truly stunning. He writes about making the very tough decision to sacrifice everything not original in his act, and about lucking into a job writing for The Smothers Brothers Show. He writes about mentors, girlfriends, his complex relationship with his parents and sister, and about some of his great peers in comedy Dan Aykroyd, Lorne Michaels, Carl Reiner, Johnny Carson. He writes about fear, anxiety and loneliness. And he writes about how he figured out what worked on stage. This book is a memoir, but it is also an illuminating guidebook to stand up from one of our two or three greatest comedians. Though Martin is reticent about his personal life, he is also stunningly deft, and manages to give readers a feeling of intimacy and candor. Illustrated throughout with black-and-white photographs collected by Martin, this book is instantly compelling visually and a spectacularly good read.

› Find signed collectible books: 'Britain's Slave Trade'
Europe has reaped the rewards whilst Africa has suffered the costs of the slave trade. This is clearly demonstrated in the highly readable accompaniment to a Channel 4 television series, Britain's Slave Trade, which provides an intriguing illustration of how events that have become disassociated from mainstream history show in the face of modern Britain. S.I. Martin reveals how the slaving legacy extends to Britain's politics, to the industrial and architectural heritage, to high street banks and to the genetics of the current population. He does not shy away from slavery's shocking cruelty or from sensitive issues, such as the role of Africans in the trade. He also examines the abolition movement, stressing the importance of Black radicals and pointing out that the advantages of abolition for the British went beyond the humanitarian. General historical background is combined with short studies of specific individuals and places, incorporating substantial quotations from Europeans and Africans--from historical figures, from modern scholars and from living descendants of slaves and slavers. For a relatively brief book, Britain's Slave Trade manages to provide wide coverage in both time and in its range of topics. It is concerned about the future as well as the past, offering a hope that a more complete awareness of the legacy of slavery may be a force for closer social unity. --Karen Tiley.

The Complete Far Side limited-edition book and lithograph set contains every Far Side cartoon ever syndicated (over 4,000 of them) in a numbered, two-volume, 1,272-page book set and a limited-edition lithograph print, both signed by Gary Larson. Only 2,000 copies of this incredible package have been produced. Printed on glossy, specially milled, archival quality paper and bound in fine burgundy leather, the book set comes protected in a beautiful clamshell box that is covered and lined with Japanese cloth and emblazoned with gold foil-framed, full-color insets. The matted and framed 19 1/2" by 24" full-color limited-edition lithograph of one of Larson's well-known cartoons, Wendell . . . I'm Not Content, is also signed by the artist and bears the same number as the limited-edition book set.
About The Far Side�
Revered by fans as the funniest, most original, most "What the...?"-inspiring cartoon ever, The Far Side last appeared over nine years ago and still boasts millions of rabid devotees. During its 14-year run, the cartoon was syndicated internationally in more than 1,900 daily newspapers, translated into 17 different languages, and spawned 22 Far Side books.
The Complete Far Side contains every Far Side cartoon ever syndicated-more than 4,000 comic gems, with more than 1,100 that have never previously appeared in book form! Also included is a rare glimpse into the mind of Far Side creator Gary Larson, with his quirky and thoughtful introductions to each of the 14 chapters. Still want more? Complaint letters, fan letters, and queries from puzzled readers round out this eclectic and definitive collection of what many people consider the most side-splitting cartoon of all time. Actor, author, and comedian Steve Martin writes the delightful and pithy foreword, and Larson's former editor describes what it was like to be "the guy who could explain every Far Side cartoon." It's everything you could want from The Far Side--and much, much more!

But hungry for more - and pursued by a whiff of scandal - Lacey migrates to edgy Downtown, watching Hirsts and Warhols multiply in value before her eyes.

› Find signed collectible books: 'Picasso at the Lapin Agile'
Comedy / Casting: 7m, 2f / Interior Scenery
This long running Off-Broadway absurdist comedy places Albert Einstein and Pablo Picasso in a Parisian cafe in 1904, just before the renowned scientist transformed physics with his theory of relativity and the celebrated painter set the art world afire with cubism. In his first comedy for the stage, the popular actor and screenwriter plays fast and loose with fact, fame and fortune as these two geniuses muse on the century's achievements and prospects as well as other fanciful topics with infectious dizziness. Bystanders, including Picasso' agent, the bartender and his mistress, Picasso's date, an elderly philosopher, Charles Dabernow Schmendimen and an idiot inventor introduce additional flourishes of humor. The final surprise patron to join the merriment at the Lapin Agile is a charismatic dark haired singer time warped in from a later era.
"Highly credible and ... very funny. The subject matter is daring.... You get giggles in plenty [and] moments of enlightenment.... The introduction of the final, exquisitely selected visitor from the future is a master stroke."-N.Y. Post
"Consistently entertaining."-N.Y. Daily News
"Very engaging.... Martin sends ideas onstage in baggy pants, with a cigar .... mix[ing] the sublime with the ridiculous [so] that they can't be easily disentangled.... Very good fun."-The New York Times

How can you murder those who are already dead? The Poppleham Ghosts is a Young Adult novel by UK author Steve Martin. Kevin Beeston is a 15-year-old on work assignment with his father's company. The company demolishes old buildings, replacing them with mass-produced buildings. In one of the buildings Kevin encounters a group of ghosts. He finds that these spirits are tied to the old buildings and once the building is destroyed, so are they. Kevin then begins a campaign to save the natural habitat of the Poppleham Ghosts. The Poppleham Ghosts is more than a ghost story and is more concerned with the manner in which the modern world is increasingly sterile and mass-produced and leaves no place for the imagination (symbolized by the ghosts).This is a book that will appeal to Young Adults making the transition from childhood to adulthood and battling with the pressures and realities of todays world.

› Find signed collectible books: 'Shopgirl (HANDSIGNED U.K. 1st printing)'
Shopgirl is comedian Steve Martin's first foray into fiction, and manages to be as assured as it is surprising, coming from the usually zany Martin. Set in contemporary Los Angeles, its fascination with the surreal body fascism of upper-class America feels like familiar Martin territory, but the shopgirl of the book's title is the figure that will surprise Martin fans. Mirabelle Buttersfield works in the glove department of Neimans, "selling things that nobody buys any more". Spending her days waiting for customers to appear, Mirabelle "looks like a puppy standing on its hind legs, and the two brown dots of her eyes, set in the china plate of her face, make her seem very cute and noticeable". Lonely and vulnerable, Mirabelle spends her evenings taking prescription drugs and drawing "dead things", while pursuing an on-off relationship with the hopeless Jeremy, who possesses "a slouch so extreme that he appears to have left his skeleton at home". Then Mr Ray Porter steps into Mirabelle's life. He is much older, rich, successful, divorced, and selfish, desiring Mirabelle "without obligation". Complicating the picture is Mirabelle's voracious rival in the opposite sex, her fellow Neimans shopgirl Lisa, who uses sex "for attracting and discarding men".
The mutual incomprehension, psychological damage and sheer vacuity practised by all four of Martin's characters sees Shopgirl veer rather uncomfortably between a comedy of manners and a very black comedy. There are some startling passages of description and interior monologue, but the characters are often rather hazy "types". Martin tries too hard in his attempt to write a psychologically intense novel about west coast America, but Shopgirl is still an enjoyable, if rather light read. --Jerry Brotton

DUNU DN-12 Trident
"First of all I have to mention overall packaging and design. They're looking extremely rich. Earphones themselves also looks great and unusual. As for sound quality - I'd say that it's OK for the money asked for them. Sound is clear, with nice mids and height. Sometimes bass lacked punch, but it depends on recoding mastering. So money/value - it's a good choice. " --cleg

Vesicoureteral reflux
This content will no longer be available as of 10/11
Stay tuned for improvements we're making to our Health Information section.
Vesicoureteral reflux
Ureters (tubes) carry urine from the kidneys to the bladder. At the end of the tubes, a flap-like valve prevents urine from backing-up into the ureters and kidneys.
In some children, the valves may be abnormal, or the ureters may not travel deep enough into the bladder wall, which can cause vesicoureteral reflux. Vesicoureteral reflux is a condition that allows urine to flow back up into the ureters and kidneys, causing repeated urinary tract infections. The reflux of urine exposes the ureters and kidney to infection from bacteria and high-pressure generated by the bladder during urination. If left untreated, urinary infections can cause kidney damage, renal scarring (potentially stunting kidney growth), and high blood pressure later in life.
Vesicoureteral reflux is treated with antibiotics, or, in severe cases, with surgery.
