Diever - National Park 'Drents-Friese Wold'
One of the largest areas of natural beauty in the Netherlands is National Park Drents-Friese Wold. Over 6000 hectares of forest, heath land, shifting sands and river valley grasslands were designated to become a national park in the year 2000.
National Park Drents-Friese Wold is an ideal area for walking/hiking or a bike trip. From Dwingeloo it is not far away to one of the Information Centres; the one in Diever is less than 5 km's. (The other (larger) Visitor centre is located in Terwisscha, nearby Appelscha in Friesland.)
For a bike trip it is quite easy to use the so called 'knooppuntroutes'; this is a route along numbered intersections, which you can make by yourself (see: http://www.fietsersbond.nl/fietsersbond-routeplanner). To get a good impression of the national Park from Diever one could bike along the numbers 69 > 67 > 68 > 62 > 61 > 88 > 82 > 23 > 21 > 12 > 14 > 59 > 80 > 69, which is about 28 km's.
After passing forests and heathlands you soon will reach the Aekingerzand - also called Kale Duinen (Bold Dunes). This area of shifting sands is more or less the heart of the park. We were surprised to see this kind of landscape, as it looked more like the Veluwe nearby our hometown Apeldoorn. The bike path is meandering through the soft rolling hills across the Aekingerzand. We passed a watchtower and reached the 'Grenspoel', a pool at the edge of the sand and heathlands; an idyllic spot for a break.
There is a huge fenced area, where sheep are walking around. Although walking, we only saw them resting along the bike path in the shadow of a tree. Perhaps it was too warm for other activities.
Along the green brook valley of the Vledder AA you will come back into the park and soon you will be back in Diever. We were absolutely impressed by the unexpected beauty of the Drents-Friese Wold.

Orvelte – museum village
Staying rather close to Orvelte, we visited this small village in the middle of the beautiful rural landscape of the province of Drenthe on a rainy and rather wet December day. Of course we did know it was off season, but didn't expect to find almost everything being closed for public/visitors.
Orvelte is a museum village, or as the inhabitants say a 'living museum', where people - only a couple of hundred - still work and live. To be honest it had its own charm walking around without any visitors on the cobble stoned streets between the old impressive thatched Saxon farmhouses with piles of peat, the (renovated) sheep fold at the village green and the closed shops and art galleries.
(For opening hours see: http://www.orvelte.net/links/)
We were a little bit disappointed that even the village café was closed, but happy to find a welcome in Restaurant Schapendrift. Enjoying a warm cup of coffee and an 'apfelstrudel' we were already making plans for another 'summer visit', to see more of the traditional crafts and skills in Orvelte.
Orvelte lies about 25 km's east of Dwingeloo.
Summer season is from April till October. Access is free, you just have to pay for a car park.- Architecture

Assen – Drents Museum
Although Assen is dating back to the 13th century - when the monastery Mariënkamp (or Maria in Campis) was transferred to the town - it doesn't really look like an old city. The oldest and most interesting part of the town is situated around the Brink, a village green in the centre of the town.
The monastery doesn't exist any longer and on their site are a couple of historical buildings (former Provincial Government Building, Drostenhuis - former home of the home Queens Commissioner, Kloosterkerk/Abdijkerk - once belonging to the monastery and the Ontvangershuis - the former Tax Collectors House).
All these buildings now house parts of the Drents Museum.
We visited the Drents Museum, especially for an exhibition of 'China's Golden Age'. The museum often has very interesting and famous temporary exhibitions like this one. In the past they had for instance exhibitions like 'Gold from Georgia' and 'The Terracotta Army of Xián'. The other day I heard on TV something about an upcoming exhibition about the 'Dead Sea Scrolls'.
If interested in one of these 'international' exhibitions you should take look at the museum website.
But the museum offers a lot more, varying from (pre)historic artifacts from the province of Drenthe, including so called bog bodies and the huge tusks of a mammoth, an extensive art collection and period rooms showing how families of Drenthe lived in the past.
Walking through the museum is walking through different architecture styles: modern in the new exhibition room and museum shop, gothic in the former Provincial Government Building with a beautiful tiled staircase and the nicely decorated Statenzaal and Ontvangershuis and Kloosterkerk dating back to the middle ages.
When we were finished with our visit, we ended in Café Krul (inside the museum). They often adjust their menu to the temporary exhibitions; so we had a Chinese lunch.
For current exhibitions, opening hours, entrance fee and directions see the website of the Drents Museum.
Assen is about 30 km's north from Dwingeloo.

Havelte for dolmen (and chamade organ)
When visiting Dwingeloo in Drenthe one SHOULD at least visit one of the many dolmen in the province. A couple of these impressive tombstones can be found in Havelte (just 15 km's southwest of Dwingeloo). Another one is located in nearby Diever.
Havelte has two 'hunebedden' (dolmen), which are located 3 km's north of the village. Along the 'Van Helomaweg' you will find a sign to the 'Hunebedden' and a car park. From there just walk 250 meters and on your left hand side you will see the first dolmen: 'Hunebed D53'. That is the second largest dolmen of the Netherlands.
Hundred meters further lies the second dolmen (Hunebed D54), which maybe is the most beautiful located dolmen of the Netherlands. It is situated at the foot of the soft rolling hills of the Havelterberg and especially during the month of August, when the heath is blooming it is a very pleasant and beautiful place to visit.
For more info about the Dutch dolmen: http://www.hunebedden.nl/frntpage.htm
When visiting Havelte on a Saturday afternoon (from Whit Saturday till the last Saturday in September) you shouldn't miss the Clemenskerk. Around 4.00 pm there is a free open air concert on a so called 'chamadron'; an almost unique organ like instrument. More info and annual program: http://www.chamadron.nl/english.php
Havelte is situated less than 15 km's southwest of Dwingeloo.- Architecture

Salma Hayek Goes For the Gold at the Oscars
Salma Hayek wore an ornate Alexander McQueen gown when she walked the red carpet at the Oscars in LA today. While Salma isn't nominated for an award tonight, she is presenting at the Oscars alongside a long list of other famous faces. Salma is no stranger to the award season fervor, as she was nominated for best actress for her role in 2002's Frida. Although Salma lost the award to Nicole Kidman — who won for The Hours — she has become a red-carpet staple at the event ever since. Weigh in on Salma's gown in our Oscars fashion and beauty polls.

I am a very open minded person who assesses even the smallest and simplest things. I have been looking at this game for awhile now and finally decided to get it after I played the first Diablo in the late 90's that a friend had. So with that, on 16 May 12, I decided to give it a try. Recently I have been reading how game publishers want to protect their work by having a person register the product on line this Blizzard has ran with. I do agree that they need to protect their work from piracy, but having to log in to play a single player game is in my opinion going to hurt that gaming industry especially PC and Mac. I have been extremely dissatisfied with the release of Diablo III in respect to having to play it through a server for single player gaming. Of the time I have had a chance of playing without being disconnected due to error 3007 or server outages due to maintenance, it has been good. My main issue and with many others, is having to be connected to the internet. And as one person had said in a post you pay $60 for the rights to play the game and you really don't own it, hence being mandated to play with internet connection ONLY. All-the-time internet connection for single player gaming needs to be seriously re-assessed by management and developers and listen to gamers on their opinions to such a move to reduce piracy of games. This has truly been a huge setback for the developers but most importantly the mass of gamers who want only to play a game they have purchased and not held captive to servers.
I travel a lot for work, and a little diablo during my plane rides would make the time go a hell of a lot faster. Not going to happen because of this though.
How about blaming the scumbag hackers and pirates who are intent on ruining everyone's gaming experience rather than blaming Blizzard for protecting their product in the only way they can. I just don't see what's so wrong with requiring a game with a huge online component to be connected online. If it didn't it would call into question the integrity of the entire game. I just don't see why the online requirement is unreasonable at all. It's 2012, who doesn't have a computer that is always connected online?
Well, see my above post. My work also involves being in very remote locations for weeks at a time, and not everywhere has internet connections capable of continuous gaming. Not everyone is sitting at home all the time. I've spent my money on a product that I can't use as I please, even though everything that needs to run the game is already on my computer at all times. I don't disagree that they need to protect their product. But taking away from the experience of the people paying to use your product.. well, that I don't agree with.
So because you have a job that requires you to travel that somehow means you're entitled to be able to play a video game wherever you go? I don't see the connection. Just because someone develops a game doesn't mean every person on the planet is entitled to the ability to play it. You appear to have quite an overblown sense of yourself and your importance that is tied into some weird sense of entitlement when it comes to an entertainment product.
@fourfour44: Cute. You think people who want to play single player offline are entitled or jobless losers. So you are okay with the idea of Mario, GTA or Halo having always online DRM as long as they have an auction house attached. As I said on metacritic, enjoy your server crashes, connection drops, progression losses, gold farmers and lag monsters.
I didn't say anyone is a jobless loser but yes, I did say anyone with a problem with this is an entitled whiner. I don't see what an auction house has anything to do with the issue, but if Sony, Nintendo, and Microsoft were to institute an always on internet connection for their next consoles I would have no problem with it, whether they claim its to prevent pirates and scumbag hackers or not. I'm not entitled to any service they provide and if they choose to provide a service to consumers then that service is provided on their terms. Nobody is required to play any of these games no matter who the developer is, they're entertainment products and nothing more. If you, or anyone else, is unhappy with the service being provided then maybe you should find another hobby
A@fourfour44: Apologies about associating you with people calling d3 critics jobless losers. Flipping through similar posts on firefox mobile had me confuse you for another who did I suppose. The Auction house and the need to stop modders or hackers as you call them is relevent since it is Blizzard's main justification for always on internet connection instead of protecting against piracy. Now here is the problem with the logic of your argument. You are treating all standalone single player games as services whereas they have been traditionally viewed as products. It is like requiring people who want to read a book to maintain a constant internet connection with the publishers' servers just to access the text. It can be done but it is not in the interests of the reader and ultimately the publisher. Diablo was advertised as a single player game and it should be held to the standard of single player games. Always online DRM is not the standard and it is far from beneficial to the single player experience. As for protecting against hackers, the DRM policy also hampers legitimate efforts to provide meaningful mods to the game. You may not care for it but having player made content available has been a boon to PC gaming since its infancy. I do agree with you though that people should not buy the game if they are unhappy with always online DRM. They also have a right to voice their displeasure about the practice anyway they see fit.
Ummm... I paid cash for a product, and it's wrong to be able to choose where and when I want to use it? You're logic is very twisted there buddy. It was you who who said that everyone has a computer that is always connected to the internet. I pointed out that you were wrong. You proceeded to point out... something completely nonsensical? If you're happy with something because it doesn't affect you, don't jump on people for pointing out how it affects them. I can travel with everything needed to play this game, yet I can't, so yeah I feel it's worth pointing this out in a thread on that exact subject. Grow up and learn that not there isn't one side to every story.
Your last comment is incredibly narrow-minded. Just because you reside in a capitalist country, doesn't mean EVERYONE else enjoys the same superfluous frivolities as Americans do. Yes, the game may have a huge online component, however in retrospect it is not REQUIRED to actually play the game. I also hope you understand that this anti-piracy approach is only going to lose fan base and merely cause latency to the cracking of this game. I tell you what, In 2-3 weeks, hop on over to pirate bay and tell me if blizzard is winning this battle.
@fourfour44 You are incredibly ignorant. The guy was merely saying that he travels, has the game on his lab top, but can't play it. He paid $60 dollars, why the hell should he not be able to play it? Think about that for a second and then go bang your head against a wall.
Blizzard made it very clear an internet connection is required to play Diablo 3. So I highly disagree with being entitled to playing it wherever you want because you paid $60 for it. They also made it very clear that they would be working on the servers after release so expect downtime. What's wrong with playing Diablo II on the plane rides?
Yup that sucks. Time for a job that requires less travel. Less travel, more Diablo. Less travel, more Diablo. Less travel, more Diablo. Less travel, more Diablo. Less travel, more Diablo. Less travel, more Diablo. Less travel, more Diablo. Less travel, more Diablo. Less travel, more Diablo. Less travel, more Diablo. Less travel, more Diablo. Less travel, more Diablo. Less travel, more Diablo. Less travel, more Diablo. Less travel, more Diablo. Less travel, more Diablo. Less travel, more Diablo.
Yes, Blizzard did make it clear... That doesn't mean it was a good idea! I'm all for preventing piracy, I want the companies making games I love to do well, HOWEVER, when there efforts to prevent piracy make the experience less enjoyable for HONEST customers they have taken a step in the wrong direction.
Also they haven't beaten piracy... They have delayed it, give it a few weeks and people will be playing their free copies of diablo 3 and then the only losers were honest customers.
Then blame the pirates for creating the reality that we all live in, don't blame Blizzard for protecting their huge investment in the only way they can. Sure, it might make the game slightly inconvenient for some people that travel and don't have constant and reliable internet access, but it greatly benefits the much greater number of honest customers who do wish to play the game and not have it compromised by scumbag hackers and pirates. Yeah, I'm not a Starcraft fan but I was under the impression that Starcraft II has the same always on requirement does it not? And as far as I know Starcraft II has not been compromised, I'm sure it would be a pretty big news story if it was.
Starcraft allows you to play single player even while you aren't connected. and starcraft has been cracked you can pirate it for free but you can't play online (which makes sense). And Yes I do blame the hackers, but I also blame blizzard for not crafting a solution that does not hinder the enjoyment of their product from honest customers. Even with the pirating community Blizzard would have sold Diablo 3 to millions of honest customers.
Dear lord, it's crazy how rustled everyone's jimmies are over this thread. It is what it is, you can't play D3 without an internet connection so get over it. Isn't like flaming one another on this thread will fix anything. Get a game to play while you dont have interwebz, sheesh.
Look, I knew what I was getting into when I bought the game, I'm just saying, since the topic was brought up, that this does affect how some people are able to enjoy the game. Traditionally, as long as you have everything needed, you're able to use a product as you please, but with this game that is not the case. For those bringing up entitlement, give your heads a shake. I never said I should be able to play the game wherever I am, I just said that I can't. As I said above, I agree that Blizzard needs to protect their intellectual property, but it's a shame that it has to come at the expense of the enjoyment of their paying customers.
Lol do you honestly think Diablo won't be cracked? Come on think about it... at the end of the day it is merely software, no matter how careful the developer is someone will still crack it.
They can crack the software/keys all they want, but that doesn't mean the authentication on Blizzards servers won't reject the connection requests, just saying. You know anyone playing WoW on a cracked version? Probably not for this reason.
This. The pirates can attempt to create their own Battle.net server .... or try something (I doubt D3 is meant to run P2P), but I doubt the expense of creating a free game will be worth it.
The point was Blizzard was very clear so anyone who doesn't like it.... you were not forced to buy the game.
All I have to say is welcome to the gaming world. Diablo 3 is not even close to the first game to use this method. ME2 for example will not allow you to access any DLC you've bought unless you're able to connect to the internet. I got the game this past Saturday and have not been disconnected even once. I would imagine the initial issues were a result of more server load than anticipated. This isn't uncommon. When I first started playing certain MMOs I would get disconnected all the time, or be set into a que before I could log into a server for exactly that reason. Having to be online is hardly an issue. At least for me anyway. I have had a dedicated internet connection for at least 10 years now. I'm always connected. As long as the servers are up, I'm good to go. And you don't really own the game. You own a license to play the game. A license that can be revoked by Blizzard at any time if you violate the terms of the agreement you entered into by installing the game.
Wait for the GOTY / Gold Edition of Diablo 3 -- it will probably be more cost-effective for gamers on a budget (and most bugs will be addressed).

Marriott Hotels Conceives New 'Underground' Innovation LabFriday May 31st, 2013 - 12:38PM M

BETHESDA, MD—Marriott Hotels has opened a new 10,000-sq.-ft. Innovation Lab located beneath the company's headquarters. The Innovation Lab offers rapid prototyping with instant feedback capabilities, bird's eye views from Internet-enabled cameras and multiple avenues for customer participation. Located two stories below headquarters, the lab, dubbed "The Underground," is dedicated to promoting innovation and collaboration. This space showcases the brand's commitment to the next generation of travelers, who seamlessly blend work and play, with a focus on changing style, technology and service. "When we decided to transform this expansive unused space hidden beneath headquarters, we blasted through walls and left the old ideas of a 'design space' behind. We tapped into the best technology to create an ever-changing lab for innovation, experiencing ideas, exploring concepts, and receiving instant feedback from guests," Paul Cahill, senior vice president, brand management for Marriott Hotels, said in a statement. "The design concepts conceived and perfected will make the future of travel a reality, sooner." Because the parts of the Innovation Lab are mobile, the Marriott design team can take every detail into consideration from the positioning of the bed in the room to the layout of the bathroom. Visitors to the space will become a part of the design and testing process for guestrooms, great room lobbies, meetings spaces, and even food & beverage concepts, innovations that will now be implemented more quickly in Marriott properties around the world. Upon entry to the Innovation Lab, guests will traverse a gallery filled with projected images on walls awash in rich, saturated colors and lighting effects courtesy of Philip's ColorBlast Powercore high-performance LED lighting system, where featured presentations set the scene for Marriott's newest designs.

Klingons in STID--why do they look like [SPOILERS]?

Re: Klingons in STID--why do they look like [SPOILERS]?
Fixed the quote for ya.
Yeah, TUC is one of the great
films but it has some silly and contradictory scenes and dialogue. When McCoy fails to save Gorkon's life it's in large part because he doesn't know enough about Klingon anatomy to rescue the Chancellor. Later in the film Spock tells Scotty and Valeris that Klingons do not have tear ducts. Apparently somebody somewhere aboard the Enterprise-A has detailed enough knowledge of Klingon physiology that they can tell fellow officers that the species lacks tear ducts (which in and of itself makes no sense given all the times over the course of the franchise we've seen Klingon eyes well up with moisture or even tears, but that's another story).
McCoy could have used Spock's help, or if it was something that Spock had to look up in the Enterprise databanks after the assassination then that computer data would have come in mighty handy when McCoy and Kirk beamed over to Gorkon's cruiser. No matter how you slice it something doesn't add up - but it all seems to work in that film and make for a very entertaining and thrilling story, which is what really matters most.
Human instinct is pretty strong. You can't expect us to change overnight.

Comments about Kenneth Cole Reaction Take Five 28"" Expandable Upright Suitcase:
I purchased this bag to take on a trip with me. Chose to purchase this brand instead of a Samsonite because it was stylish and pretty. The handle broke before I even made it to the taxi after landing! What's worse, the warranty doesn't mean anything because customer service was so terrible-after multiple phone calls and multiple left messages I finally resigned myself to just throwing it in the trash. What a waste! It's the last time I go with anything other than luggage by a luggag company. Such a disappointment.

Bush Seeks to Limit Voting Rights Lawsuits
In election news, the Los Angeles Times is reporting that Bush administration lawyers are now attempting to overturn decades of legal precedence by claiming that only Attorney General John Ashcroft and not individual voters have a right to ask federal courts to enforce voting rights. In legal briefs filed in Ohio, Michigan and Florida, the Bush administration is arguing that the new Help America Vote Act stipulates that only the Justice Department, and not voters themselves, may sue to enforce the voting rights. Veteran voting rights lawyers say this would overturn decades of legal precedent and could greatly affect any legal challenge to Tuesday's election. According to the LA Times, since the civil rights era of the 1960s, individuals have gone to federal court to enforce their right to vote, often with the support of the NAACP, the AFL-CIO, the League of Women Voters. J. Gerald Hebert, a former chief of the Justice Department's voting-rights section, said he was dismayed that the government was seeking to weaken a measure designed to protect voters. Hebert, who worked in the voting-rights section from 1973 to 1994 told the Times, "This is the first time in history the Justice Department has gone to court to side against voters who are trying to enforce their right to vote. I think this law will mean very little if the rights of American voters have to depend on this Justice Department." Even the Supreme Court has backed the idea of private suits. In 1969, the justices issued a ruling in a case related to the Voting Rights Act of 1965 that "the achievement of the act's laudable goal would be severely hampered ... if each citizen were required to depend solely on litigation instituted at the discretion of the attorney general."
New Evidence Emerges That Explosives Went Missing in Iraq
A local TV station in Minnesota has aired video from Iraq that raises new questions about how much effort U.S. troops made to secure deadly explosives after the U.S. invasion. On Monday, the New York Times revealed that 377 tons of highly explosive materials went missing from the Al Qaqaa military base. The Bush administration has attempted to downplay the story claiming that the explosives were likely already gone when the U.S. troops arrived. But now the ABC affiliate in Minnesota has broadcast footage from its embedded reporter who traveled to Al Qaqaa with the U.S. troops. The video shows GIs breaking the locks on storage bunkers to reveal barrels and barrels labeled "explosive." Meanwhile a military officer admitted to Knight Ridder that the U.S. didn't have the resources to secure the sites. The officer said, "We weren't able to respond because we didn't have anyone to send."
Study: Iraq Invasion Has Killed 100,000 Civilians
A new peer-reviewed study has concluded that at least 100,000 Iraqi civilians have died because of the U.S invasion last year. The study appears in the British medical journal Lancet and was conducted by researchers at Columbia University, Johns Hopkins and Al-Mustansiriya in Baghdad. The rise in the death rate was mainly due to violence and much of it was caused by U.S. air strikes on towns and cities. The estimated number of deaths is considerably higher than previous estimates. The U.S. military claims it does not keep tallies on civilian casualties. The researchers made its calculation based on door-to-door surveys in Baghdad where they gathered data to determine how the country's death rate has changed since the U.S. invaded Iraq. Other estimates have put the civilian toll between 16,000 and 35,000.
Reporters Without Borders Criticizes Press Freedom in U.S.
The international journalist group Reporters Without Borders has issued its annual report on press freedom. The U.S. now ranks 22nd in press freedom among the world's countries. The report criticized the U.S. on a number of grounds including "violations of source confidentiality, persistent problems in granting press visas and the arrest of several journalists during anti-Bush demonstrations." The study also determined that Iraq had become "the most deadly place on Earth for journalists." Meanwhile in Iraq, gunmen have killed an Iraqi newsreader who worked at the Al Sharqiya television station in Baghdad. He husband was murdered two months ago. The motive for her killing was not clear
FBI Launches Criminal Probe of Halliburton
In other Iraq news, the FBI has launched a criminal investigation into whether the Pentagon improperly awarded Halliburton no-bid contracts worth billions of dollars. The FBI has sought permission to interview Bunnatin Greenhouse, the chief contracting officer of the Army Corps of Engineers who has publicly questioned if Halliburton had unfairly been awarded the contracts.
Arafat Arrives in France For Medical Care
Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat is scheduled to arrive France today to seek urgent medical treatment at a military hospital. Two days ago Arafat collapsed and briefly lost consciousness. Aides to Arafat said he was "very frail." This marks the first time in over two years that Arafat has left his Ramallah compound.
Attendees of Bush Rally Removed for Wearing "Protect Our Civil Liberties" T-Shirts
In Oregon, three school teachers were recently removed from a Bush campaign event and threatened with arrest. Although the women had tickets for the events and were not engaged in any form of public protest, security guards approached them after seeing their t-shirts that read "Protect Our Civil Liberties." One of the teachers, Janet Voorhies, said, "I wanted to see if I would be able to make a statement that I feel is important, but not offensive, in a rally for my president."
Last month in Eugene Oregon, 54-year-old Perry Patterson was arrested and charged with criminal trespass after attending a campaign event by Vice President Dick Cheney. When Cheney told the crowd that President Bush has made the world safer, Patterson blurted out the word "No" and was arrested soon after.
And earlier this week police dragged out three protesters from a Bush campaign rally in Lancaster Penn. after the protesters shouted out that the president was a liar.
IRS Investigating NAACP For Criticizing Bush
The Internal Revenue Service has launched an investigation to determine whether the non-profit NAACP improperly "intervened in a political campaign" when its Chairman Julian Bond gave a major speech condemning the Bush administration's policies. Bond said yesterday "I think what's at issue is our right to criticize the president of the United States. The IRS is saying that because I criticized the president's education policies, his economic policies and his war policies that somehow I placed the tax exemption for the NAACP at risk." During the speech in question Bond said, "The NAACP has always been nonpartisan, but that doesn't mean we're non-critical. For as long as we've existed, whether Democrats or Republicans have occupied the White House, we've spoken truth to power."

On March 21, 1915, a motion picture was screened for the first time inside the White House. President Woodrow Wilson sat down to watch D.W. Griffith's "The Birth of a Nation," considered one of the most nakedly racist of all time. One hundred years later, another film was screened at the White House, this time at the invitation of the first African-American president. The film was "Selma."

An Implementation of a MATLAB Compiler for Matrix Processors
Free registration required
Executive Summary
Not only did the compiler writers have to track new language features, they also had to devise translation algorithms that would take maximal advantage of the modern processors capabilities. This paper implements a compiler for Mat-Core processor, where applications written in MATLAB are compiled into sequences of scalar/vector/matrix instructions to execute on Mat-Core hardware. Mat-Core is a matrix processor that extends a general-purpose scalar processor with a matrix unit for processing vector/matrix data. Scalar-scalar, scalar-vector, vector - vector, scalar matrix, vector-matrix, and matrix-matrix instructions can be executed on Mat-Core.

Angry Birds Headed To Facebook
Angry Birds, Finnish developer Rovio's game which has been downloaded more than 75 million times since release in 2009, is to see a release on Facebook.
There are millions of potential players on the social networking site, and Rovio sees a social reinvention of the game as an exciting prospect, allowing is to experiment with its hugely successful formula.
"There will be completely new aspects to it that just haven't been experienced on any other platform," Rovio's Mikael Hed told Wired magazine, saying that due to Facebook's "collaborative nature, the pigs will have a more prominent role."
Peter Vesterbacka, the business development director who goes by the title Mighty Eagle, said Rovio's plans for expansion do not end there. With Angry Birds rapidly making its way to every viable gaming platform, and a Hollywood tie-in days away, Vesterbacka's thoughts have turned to other genres and even other industries, drawing inspiration from one of the biggest names in entertainment history.
"We're building an integrated entertainment franchise where merchandising, games, movies, TV, cartoons and comics all come together," he said. "Look at how Disney got started. Steamboat Willie created Mickey Mouse, then they added more characters. You can see the same pattern today, but everything is happening much, much faster.
"Other brands used to build recognition over the course of decades. We've done it in one year."

I always get really irritated when you go out to eat, and stuff, you know. I took this girl out to eat a while back, we had a nice place. I rolled the window up and the tray fell off, and, uh, she's like, "You got mustard on my jacket!"
I'm like, "What the hell are you bitching about? I had to smoke 800 packs of cigarettes to get the jacket!"
Ungrateful, is what she was. I'd have madder than a deaf mute playing "Bingo", getting "Bingo", and trying to holler out "Bingo!".
That's funny!
"Nga, nga!"
I ain't gonna get married, though, I thought I was once. I met this red head, uh, no hair, just a red head, and, uh, yeah, she burnt up in a trailer fire a while back there. Yeah, it was my fault. It was her birthday and I was lighting farts, and, uh, she was a little too close to me and I singed her eyebrows, her hair burnt up and she running around the trailer and caught the trailer on fire, and I called the fire department. They couldn't find us no where and we had to meet them halfway, you know. Good thing we ran a couple red lights or we'd have lost a whole kitchen on that place there.
My Grandma been married 'bout 60 years. And, uh, she just died recently, 104, and, uh, but they saved the baby. Lord, I apologize for talking about my Grandma like that, and be with the starving pygmies down there in New Guinea. Amen.
But, my Grandma, she'd been married about 60 years, and I was asking her about marraige, you know, 'cause she ought to know, and we was talking the other day about an hour, you know, she sitting there.
I said, "You think I ought to get married?"
You know what she said? "Shut the door I'm trying to poop!"
You believe that? And then she kept talking to me with the door there.
[making struggling noises occastionally] She's like, "I don't understand why you wanna get married. You've only been dating that girl maybe two, three years at the most, there."
Daggone. "Why don't you drop the chalupa, and then come on out and talk to me. I mean this is ridiculous!"
And that's the thing about relatives, you know. They don't care if you're in the toilet, you know. They just walk right in on you. I was in there the other day.
[makes struggling noise]
Here come my sister, barging in. "I gotta get my hairspray."
"Hello! McFly, hello!"
Then she like, "Oooooh, it smells like crap in here!"
"What do you think's coming out of my hind end? Twizzlers? Daggone, you heard me 'huuugh' going like that, didn't you? What do you think I'm doing, lifting weights in here? Daggone, I'm trying to drop a stink pickle for Pete's sake. You are harder to understand than a hairlip ordering Biggy Fries, I tell you."
Haha, that's funny.
"Can I help you?"
"Uh, wiggy fifes?"
"What the hell are wiggy fifes?"
Lord, I apologize for talking about the retard ordering wiggy fifes, and be with the starving pygmies down there in New Guinea. Amen.

A half hour before Olympian Elva Dryer goes for a run, she doesn't just stretch or sip a sports drink. She also lies on the ground with her eyes closed, taking deep breaths. In her mind, she scans her body and focuses on relaxing her muscles, head to toe. This "mindfulness" meditation exercise might look strange to other runners, but to Dryer, 34, it helps explain her success. She made it part of her training routine as she prepared for the 10,000 meters at the 2004 Olympic Trials. "During the race, I felt totally engaged with what was going on," says Dryer, who took second with a time of 31:58.14. "I believe meditating influenced my ability to focus and run my best."
Mindfulness is a state of mind in which you are focused completely on the present moment. The ability to clear our heads and be at one place at one time is an elusive concept. We may think we do it on a run, but often we're mentally everywhere–solving problems at home and at work–but on that run. Studies have shown that mindfulness counteracts the effects of stress, lowers blood pressure, and provides an overall sense of well-being. Which is why athletes like Dryer are taking it a step further–using it to enhance their running.
Breathe Right
"In general, you don't spend a lot of time in your body or in touch with your senses because you're carried away by your worries, anxieties, and fears," says Jon Kabat-Zinn, Ph.D., professor of medicine emeritus at the University of Massachusetts Medical School and an avid runner. "When mindfulness is applied to sports, it brings the mind and the body into a kind of unity." Paying attention to the feeling and in-and-out motion of your breath before and during a run can help you achieve this centered-yet-peaceful state of mind (see "Mind Numbing,"). And running lends itself to this practice. "Running is breath by breath, footfall by footfall, moment by moment," Kabat-Zinn says. "It has its own calming and clarifying meditative elements built right into it."
Focusing on your breath can help calm race anxiety and quiet negative self-talk, allowing you to zero in on your running and your performance goals. "If the mind is centered on breathing, the mind becomes stronger and more focused," says Sakyong Mipham Rinpoche, spiritual leader of the Shambhala Buddhist lineage, who is training for the New York City Marathon. Instead of worrying about the past (My last split was off) or future (I still have 10 miles to go), the mind stays in the present moment. "The mind struggles less and, therefore, the body becomes more efficient," he says.

Wow!!! you guys are amazing!!!!
Hi Guys, just found this thread a few days ago, and all I can say is WOW!! you are all amazing and some of the most creative modelers around. You guys are proof that scratch building is not a dead art form, you have taken it to it's next level. I have been modeling for about 22 years, I have worked in the RC industry for several different companies, and you guys put most of them to shame with your creativity, and skills. I too like to scratch build and after reading this entire thread I am hoping that some one here can help me with some plans for a Scimitar design
plan that I can down load and print then scale to the size I want. I have been on the Scimitar thread on RCgroups, but I was hoping you guys had some ideas for me. I want to build a profile Scimitar and just need an outline for layout and CG placement, I have built several dozen foam indoor models, one of my own designs I call it Stained Glass was very successful it is 5 oz,all up and is an F3P style plane that does it all and very slow, I will try to post some pics. So Thanks in advance for any help. Eric G |

Short review: This one does it right from the lack of annoying pornography music to their originative cam angles and first-class choices in top-models, they've really got the whole "first time fisted" thing rammed. They've also nude a marked improvement in their movie and photo quality as of late, and updates are coming in steadily, so members can expect an archive overflowing with HD videos in time.
Content Amount: They update every week and they've been at it since 2005, so there's nearing 500 scenes and sets on the website.

Respond to Review of The Magic Apple
by gr8vegan
Review: We were really excited to visit the Magic Apple after reading on their website that they specialize in Low Fat Vegan food, what we found when we arrived was not a drop of food that was low fat. They tout this healthy icing, which is really fat and sugar no different than any margarine, but made out of nut oil. They were completely unhelpful in offering up anything healthy and we left dismayed and requested they change their website copy.
