This is a great product to use if you want soft curls or wavy hair. It was very easy to use and did not take a long time to get the effect that I wanted. I have straight thin shoulder length layered hair. When I used this product I got full soft wavy curls in just a few minutes. I would definitely recommend this product.
I really like this product because it makes my hair look thicker. I blow dry it with a round brush to give it some body and then use the curling iron to maximize it and I have gotten lots of compliments. Love this iron.
I recently bought this item after using my cousins for soo long. I absolutely love it. It's a must have!!! It's makes the prettiest curls ever!!
I just love this straightener, it light and little so you can take it with you on any trip, it super fast and so efficient. I deffinetly recommend it to everyone, the curlers on the sides help me style my hair in so many different ways, I'm in love with it!
Let me tell you. I have long, thick, curly, and frizzy hair. So naturally, I have to do my hair everyday. I usually don't straighten my hair and I just keep it natural, but when I do, I use this! It takes me 20 minutes max, to straighten it so it's pi straight because of the heat settings. I can get it up to the temperature that is perfect for my hair type. It also makes beautiful curls. You really have to practice to do that, but once you get the hang of it, it is so easy to use. I usually straighten the piece of hair and them twist it. Then I go down the length of my hair with the straightener and wrap the ends of my hair around the iron as I'm pulling it through. I highly recommend that if you're looking for a fairly priced and high quality iron that you buy this. You won't be sorry!!
My hair is unmanageable after I wash it. I was told a flat iron would help. I had never used one before, but with hardly any effort the Infiniti made me look like I had come out of the beauty salon. The curling iron is an added bonus.

GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip (AP) — Palestinian militants barraged Israel with more than 200 rockets on Thursday, killing three people as Israel pressed a punishing campaign of airstrikes on militant targets across the Gaza Strip. Three rockets targeted the densely populated Tel Aviv area, setting off air raid sirens in brazen attacks that threatened to trigger an Israeli ground invasion of Gaza.
Late in the day, Israel signaled a ground operation may be imminent as forces moved toward the border area with Gaza. At least 12 trucks were seen transporting tanks and armored personnel carriers, and a number of buses carrying soldiers arrived. Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak said he had authorized the army to call-up additional reservists for possible action. The army said it was prepared to draft up to 30,000 additional troops.
"I ordered the military today to widen the draft of reserve soldiers in order to be able to be ready for any development," Barak said. Military officials said the moves were to prepare for the possibility of a ground invasion, but stressed no decision had been made. Israel TV stations, however, said a ground offensive was expected Friday.
The fighting, the heaviest in four years, has also killed 15 Palestinians in two days and brought life to a standstill on both sides of the border. School has been canceled and many were huddling indoors.
Israel and Hamas have largely observed an informal truce for the past four years. But in recent weeks, the calm unraveled in a bout of rocket attacks on Israel from Gaza and retaliatory Israeli airstrikes.
The fighting showed no signs of slowing after dark. Israeli aircraft carried out dozens of attacks on militant targets in Gaza, while militants fired barrages of rockets throughout the day. The fighting began on Wednesday after Israel killed Hamas military chief Ahmed Jabari in an airstrike, then attacked dozens of rocket launchers. The offensive follows weeks of rocket fire out of Gaza.
Thursday's attacks on Tel Aviv, some of the deepest rocket strikes from Gaza on record, set air raid sirens blaring and sparked panic in the streets of the normally laid-back commercial and cultural capital. Israeli Channel 2 TV showed panicked Tel Aviv residents running for cover and lying down on the ground after the sirens began wailing. Diners hid under tables in a restaurant, and traffic snarled on the city's main north-south highway. There were no injuries.
Workers and visitors at offices in a Tel Aviv skyscraper froze for a few seconds in silence as the sound of the sirens wafted through the open windows.
Some murmured "I don't believe it," but everyone quickly and calmly rose and walked to the stairwell to go down to the building's bomb shelter. Many reached for their mobile phones to call loved ones and urge them to run to a protected space, while others kept dialing in frustration as cell networks were overloaded.
One of the rockets landed in an open area of Rishon Lezion, a city on Tel Aviv's southern outskirts, while police said the other two appeared to have landed in the sea. Although there were no injuries, Israel considers any attempt to disrupt life in Tel Aviv to be a major escalation.
Defense officials say Israel is prepared to launch a ground invasion into Gaza if necessary. And Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said the army was prepared for a "significant widening" of its Gaza offensive.
"No government would tolerate a situation where nearly a fifth of its people live under a constant barrage of rockets and missile fire, and Israel will not tolerate this situation," he said. "This is why my government has instructed the Israeli Defense Forces to conduct surgical strikes against the terrorist infrastructure in Gaza. And this is why Israel will continue to take whatever action is necessary to defend our people."
Hamas Prime Minister Ismail Haniyeh eulogized Jabari in a televised speech on Thursday night.
"What a martyrdom and what a glorious day," he said. "Congratulations. Rest in peace. Feel blessed."
He said Palestinians remained steadfast and defiant during the 22 days of the last Gaza war in 2009 and could hold out for even longer.
"Years after that war, we emphasize that Palestinians are prepared to stand steadfast longer than that," he said. "It is resistance that is capable of creating a new equation on the ground ... capable of fending off aggression and taking revenge for the noble blood of those who have fallen."

A Genealogical Quest in the Triracial South
K. Paul Johnson, author of Pell Mellers: Race and Memory in a Carolina Pocosin, will speak about his search to learn the truth of his mysterious heritage on Sunday, October 19 at 2:30 at Tazewell County Public Library.
Pell Mellers share similar social circumstances with Melungeons, Redbones, and other triracial isolate groups. Johnson explores these similarities in his book and provides an overview of the research into their origins in this very interesting account.
Johnson retired in May as director of the Halifax County - South Boston Regional Library in Southside Virginia. He first learned of his "free mulatto" ancestry through Internet searches at the library. Pell Mellers describes the relatives he met and the discoveries he made while investigating ancestors from a Unionist enclave in eastern North Carolina.
The Pell Mell region in North Carolina is the birthplace of the term "buffaloes", used during the Civil War to describe Union sympathizers regardless of race. It followed black cowboys out west after the war and soon came to describe black soldiers. Miracle at St. Anna, a novel based on real events which occurred in Tuscany during World War II, focuses on four buffalo soldiers and their encounter with a small boy haunted by a terrible experience. This novel by James McBride, himself the son of mixed race parents memorialized in The Color of Water, has been made into a movie directed by Spike Lee, and is showing in theatres now.
Johnson is the author of three previous books published by State University of New York Press, most recently Edgar Cayce in Context (1998.) He lives in Danville.
Following the program, Johnson will be available to autograph copies of his book. Refreshments will be served. The public is invited to attend.

Android game developers using NVIDIA's Tegra Android Developer Pack sample code have known for over a year and a half that Android can support all game controller buttons and axes in pure native (C/C++) code.

As a consumer its up to you to decide where you ll spend your money. it depends on your needs.
From a pure technical point of view Torvalds is completely right with his statements. NVIDIA works on their own, so it's obvious a linux kernel dev is "angry" about this. Also, they behave as if they had more secrets than the Vatican City.
This said, NVIDIA's blob is infinite times better than both AMD catalyst and OSS driver put together so still, AMD should be shamed of theirselfs (either NVIDIA gets fucked or not by Torvalds).
As a consumer its up to you to decide where you ll spend your money. it depends on your needs.
That makes me feel vindicated for sticking with AMD
I could also switch to Intel, but I expect AMD's FOSS graphics drivers to be competitive to Catalyst before Intel's graphics stuff gets usable at all (in terms of performance).
its funny how in about 2-3 years public oppinion of nvidiaa has turned from "best hardware vendor support" (i dont think anyone really thought it was the best since it was proprietary, but the graphics driver is a very noticible and important componant of the desktop and therefore stuck to the front of your mind rather than say a wifi driver) to "omg they SUUUUCK burn them with a chemical fire".
their linux support and stance hasnt changed, and only very few parts of their driver are missing. ya the optimus seems to be a vary visible sore thumb and their developers have made mention of efforts to try to fix that, but its a very invasive thing to do that touches many compnants that nvidia doesnt have much to do with. also the xrandr stuff, i dont ever use so i dont know how horrible that really is, but thats a common complaint. finaly while sli seems to be supported, im n ot to shure if it really works or gives any advantage in linux. of course, its not like there is all that much demand for it even in the windows world, in the linux world, i dont see you needing 3 geforce gtx690's to play quake 3.
what it really does come down to right now, amd has either crappy closed source drivers that may run that game with decent framerates but its hard to work with, sucks for anything other than games, and has a bad history of crashes and bugs, and im pretty shure most things the nvidia driver lacks the amd driver lacks plus more. amd does have an open source driver and there is some backing from amd, but lets be honest, there isnt much support really coming from them, a handful of devs is nothing to go praising them as the open source saviors like so many people like to try and do. the driver is really good for how short of development time it had and the huge scope it has. and for the things that really matter like 2d and desktop integration it beats the pants off the closed driver. so the guys that work on this driver really do deserve some praise for their work, but its pretty obvious amd isnt really all that serious about it, they just threw some money at it to make people shut up.
intel, well, they have had opensource drivers from the getgo, yay, but, until a couple of years ago, who cared. thier really controbutions are to the mesa top level api's and implementations. without that, we would still be in the stone age. intel hardware was pretty much unimportant for decent opengl performance since it was so weak it wouldnt really matter, but, right now, they are actualy producing lower mid range capable hardware that is good enough to run most comercial games on decent settings. so now performance is important, and intel is focusing on that. it only gets a little frustrating though, when you see intel often does their own thing and doesnt follow the trend other drivers may be going. like how they still make a classic driver rather than a gallium driver, and they dont do exa they do their own x acxeleration. some people dont care about that, i personaly like the idea of gallium and what that structure advertises it brings. but, whatever, thats not all that frustrating in comparison to when you compare the windows driver to the linux driver, windows has a higher opengl level and much better performance, it doesnt realy make much sense.
for nvidia, the opensource nouveau driver is cool, it gets some stuff done and from what ive seen performance of the low end cards (like my geforce 8400gs) is on par with the blob. its when you get higher than low end where you see the performance gap between the open and closed drivers. the open source nvidia driver, with its lack of nvidia support, is a really interesting accomplishment. i think it is just about as successful as the open source amd driver, yet it has verry little funding (fedora has a dev on it). that said, i do think it has a lot to do with nvidia and how they design their hardware, im no expert at it, but it seems that ati has had some complaints about the complexity of their recent graphics cards where as nvidia has had some prais about their simpler to program for designes. usualy nvidia moves a lot more stuff into the hardware rather than implementing it in the driver. the nvidia blob, while under huge attack nowadays, does deserve a lot of credit for linux gaming from 2000-present.
before the xbox 360 and ps3 came out and essentialy murdered pc gamign in its sleep. linux was getting some attention from major game companies who were finding themselves very proffitable and had some money to throw around for publicity. linux support was one of those. not all games came to linux, it was still only a handful, but still, it was some AAA and second rate games that would in one from or another (downloadble linux installer for windows version, specific linux version release) or would take care not to screw with wine support (i think blizzard did this, their games were pretty wine friendly). they all were 3d games that would require 3d acceleration and more so than what intel was gunna put out. they would never have come out for linux if it wasn't for the nvidia blob. im sorry, but its true. many of them would specificaly state nvidia binary driver and even wine stated its 3d suport was built around the nvidia blob. from 2000-2008 it simply came down to if you want to game under linux you buy a nvidia card and install the blob.
we now have more options, and we are lucky we do because open source devs now have control over what hardware will be suppported and what driver capabilities we will have. a lot of work went into our current linux gpu support and it has come from both the open source and closed source sides. just a few years ago everyone would praise nvidia because of their wonderful linux support and now people have huge rants and raves about them even though they still provide the best opengl support for linux. you can get up on stage and say "fuck you nvidia" but you are not really helping the situation, i really doubt that will fix anything, what incentives do they as a company have to change their current policy's? its still just as easy for them to continue their current binary support, and their is no major advantage for supporting the opensource driver.
Clearly, this is a graphic display of frustration over a graphics display.
Linus never really answered the person who asked about patents. I thought Linus was against software patents...? I think that's one area where he and Richard agree?
Remember everyone, the key words are dealt with. Nvidia is the worst company linux has dealt with because its a company that actively supports linux and does not cooperate at all. You could argue that Gigabyte is the worst, but they give so little attention to linux that isn't really a "deal" with them, they're just simply dismissive. VIA cares and is agreeable to help out linux but they just don't have the resources; that doesn't make them bad to deal with, that just makes them unreliable. AMD is sorta in the same way, I'm sure if they didn't recently support the open source drivers they would be on-par of linus' hate list because although AMD has notably crappier drivers, they aren't nearly as secretive about them. AMD also supports openCL, whereas nvidia keeps pushing CUDA.
I'd have to agree with Michael though, I don't think I would say Nvidia is the worst company linux has dealt with, however, I can't think of anyone who is worse. Even microsoft is better - they contribute toward the kernel.
Well obviously there's no love between the kernel devs and NVidia as proprietary drivers are nothing but a hassle for them, this is an ongoing saga which I think affected Linus pushing Nouveau out of staging and into mainline (obviously the great quality work by the Nouveau devs had alot to do with this aswell).
And let's be clear, NVidia doesn't care at all for Linux, the only reason they supply a quality driver for it is because Linux is big in 3D/SFX and GPU based number crunching.
That said, this is hardly news for NVidia so this statement by Linus means absolutely nothing in the grander scheme of things. Personally I'm happy that my increasingly meager GPU needs and the increased performance of cpu-built-in gpu's means I'll likely be able to ditch discrete graphic cards altogether with my next hardware upgrade.
Well nvidia hardware on desktop systems works usally really well - at least with binary drivers. But i think Linus thinks more about Optimus support. When nvidia's own developers are not allowed to help oss developers and no specs are provided this is definitely a bad signal. Informer it was easy to recommend good hardware for Linux, but since Core i cpus are used for laptops with Optimus support that definitely changed. When you consider all pros against cons you can not buy laptops with nvidia - only when you are 100% sure that you can select the gfx chip in the bios/uefi setup. The bumblebee project is interesting but far away from being usefull for everybody. Next thing which nvidia devs could really help is the reclocking support for nouveau, other parts do not seem to be too problematic to reverse engineer but this does not work fully stable since years. With low speed firmware defaults thats even more performance critical than on ati hardware, there you have got mainly the other problem especially on laptops that the chips run way too hot/fast by default. I really think that nvidia should change their attitude a bit, the drivers for dedicated cards work really well but for the much more interesting laptop systems they really have to do something. When a new Linux user is not able to get it running the way he expects he maybe only uses Linux in a vm or not at all.

Sylvane Humidifiers Can Help You Save on Winter Energy Costs
With the threat of a colder than normal winter looming over the Northwest due to La Niña and increasing crude oil prices impacting people using oil to heat their homes, many Americans are searching for ways stay warm this winter without breaking the bank. One solution that often goes overlooked is the addition of a humidifier.
Most people think of a humidifier as simply a way to treat uncomfortable conditions caused by dry air, such as nosebleeds, dry and scratchy throats, allergy symptoms, itchy skin, and respiratory issues. However, these versatile appliances can also be used to help your home feel warmer at a lower temperature.

Coconut is one of my favorite ingredients due to its neutral flavors that add richness to almost anything. Coconut contains flavor compounds called lactones that are among the same flavor compounds that give traditional dairy cream its trademark creamy flavor. And we all wondered why coconut and cream went together so well! In this Toasted Coconut Cake I wanted to maximize these layers of coconut and cream for a truly decadent cake.
I love how green tea has a subtle ability to refresh coupled with a slight hint of savoriness. I adore how vegan cupcakes can be a celebratory canvas for almost any flavor combination, that you get to just pick up and take a bite out of. But how do you infuse green tea into a baked cake product? Easy, right?

Ok so I found this Vegan Chocolate Cake recipe and it was a HUGE hit with my family and friends. It was quite easy to make as well! I've never really been a cake person, in fact I detest the stuff for the most part; but this cake made even me nod in approval. The blend of coffee that I put in the recipe adds to the chocolaty goodness and taste. It's very moist as well. There is a glaze that goes with the cake, but I personally never use it. I think the cake is just fine alone. However, I will add the directions for the glaze in case you guys want to try it.... Enjoy!
Let me just say, I'm a vanilla girl. Don't get me wrong, chocolate is great! But when I had to give up gluten & dairy I really just missed good old vanilla cupcakes. I tried a lot of recipes but they were too dry or too grainy or too plain or too... well, gross. So I got to work! It took me awhile to perfect but I'm SO proud of this Gluten-free Vegan Vanilla Cake recipe and I really think you'll love it. So far I've gotten great feedback from my "taste testers" (most of whom aren't gluten-free OR vegan). Enjoy!

Some vegan recipes are a bit complex, or use a few too many ingredients for more liking. I wanted to see what would happen if I paired a chocolate cake recipe down to almost nothing. The result: a really nice sponge cake made without specialist ingredients and easy for a baking beginner. for my party piece I scribble the recipe down on a paper napkin to share with others.

We had a potluck at work on Friday and I wanted to impress. I knew I wanted to work with pumpkin but I wasn't sure what to bake! After much research I decided on Vegan Pumpkin Cupcakes with a Spiced "Cream Cheese" Frosting. I tested the cakes a few days before using whole wheat flour… My cupcakes turned into MUFFINS! Oh no! Good thing I had enough regular flour to bake with. When I baked the dozen for work I was so proud. My cakes rose! (Something that is very hard for vegan treats to do). The cream cheese frosting was a tad difficult for me, iI ended up using what felt like a ton of powdered sugar to help it set, but it turned out perfect. Ready to celebrate the holidays?
A recipe from Triumph of the Lentil: Soy-Free Vegan Wholefoods for all Appetites. Don't be fooled by the zucchini in the title. This is actually a decadent tasting vegan mud cake. Made in a bundt pan it is thin and crispy on the outside and moist and dense on the inside, so much that it doesn't need any icing or accompaniments. To make it a bit fancier-looking you could drizzle it with melted vegan chocolate or icing. This mixture also makes delicious muffins, making 24 medium sized ones.
This was my first foray into vegan cupcake baking, and, according to the reviews of all of my friends who tried the finished product, they are more moist and delightfully sweet than any egg-and-milk-filled competitor. This cupcake is a throwback to everyone's favorite childhood (or adult!) combination of bananas topped with chocolate and peanut butter. And while there may be several steps, there are several substitutions along the way that make it easy to adapt for the cook on the go!

My love for chocolate, bananas and island vacations were the inspiration for these fabulous Monkey Island Vegan Cupcakes. I threw in all my favorites to create a piece of holiday vacation in a decadent little tin that stands alone like an island. Moist cupcake with solid chocolate pieces, filled with the richest pudding filling I've ever experienced, covered with sweetness of fruit cream frosting and topped with crunchy chips to give everyone a little bit of what they secretly want!

This moist, rich Vegan Olive Oil Rosemary Semolina Cake showcases how olive oil can make a great combination of sweet and savory when it's paired with fresh rosemary. Early on in the design of this cake recipe I was really liking where this cake was going but I knew I cold take it further. I remembered how olive oil tends to go seamlessly with pasta dishes so why not use the same type of flour for an olive oil cake?

This Vegan Plum Cake recipe is based on a traditional Pflaumenkuchen, or German plum cake. I broke with tradition a little and enhanced the plums with a splash of rum and a dusting of sugar and cinnamon. I wanted the intense fruit flavors to be well balanced by a flavorful cake so I used the power of yeasted cake to add flavor depth in the cake department. Yeasted cake also has the benefit of utilizing gluten bonds for binding which frees us from needing to use any fancy egg replacers. I purposely designed this cake to be on the dense side because I felt that it helped to showcase the plums.The result is a fruit forward plum topping baked into a cake that can hold it's own. Black plums are preferred due to their high level of sweetness. Feel free to make this cake using any combination of other stone fruits you may have on hand.

This Vegan Vanilla Cupcake recipe makes light and airy vegan cupcakes that have a soft, tender crumb due to the addition of arrowroot flour as well as apple cider vinegar. Vanilla extract and a touch of almond extract tie it all together. These cupcakes utilize the quick bread method which involves mixing your dry ingredients and wet ingredients in separate bowls, then mixing them both together at the end. This is a really easy way to make great cakes that have tender and spongy qualities. The drawback of this style is you have to be careful if you adjust the amount of sugar; more sugar will tenderize the batter, negatively affecting rise. These cupcakes are a little under sweet for my taste but if you're going for an elaborate frosting job no one will notice. If you increase the sugar in this quick bread method by even 1 Tablespoon, the cupcakes won't rise enough so it's not recommended. Use these cupcakes as a base for other flavor variations by switching out some of the flour and/or flavoring extracts. If you're looking for a cupcake that's a little bit more sweet and full flavored check out the Vegan Vanilla Cupcakes - Cream Method.

This Vegan Vanilla Cupcake recipe makes soft vegan cupcakes that utilize the cream method which involves beating or creaming Vegan Butter or margarine and sugar together, beating in an egg replacing liquid then mixing in the flour and remaining liquid at alternating stages. This results in a cake that has a more substantial mouth feel and less crumbs partially due to the gluten in the flour becoming more activated from the mixing. This method also provides a more substantial rise that is less inhibited by sugar than cakes made via the quick bread method. This cupcake requires more preparation and is less tender and spongy but more flavorful due to the Vegan Butter or margarine and slightly increased sugar. Use these cupcakes as a base for other flavor variations by switching out some of the flour and/or flavoring extracts. If you're looking for a cupcake that's a little bit more fluffy and less sweet check out the Vanilla Cupcakes - Quick Bread Method.
This Vegan Parsnip Cake recipe is carrot cake's long lost brother, featuring parsnips which are slightly spicy and astringent. Parsnips are teamed up with pineapple, golden raisins, non-diary yogurt and a touch of cardamom to make a vegan cake that's lighter and spicier than carrot cake but every bit as tasty. Like carrot cake, Vegan Parsnip Cake should be liberally frosted with Easy Vegan Cream Cheese Frosting or a variant thereof for best results.

Phoronix: XDC2012: Lots Of Progress On X, Mesa, Wayland
XDC2012 Nürnberg ended last Friday after three days of vibrant discussions surrounding Mesa, X.Org, Wayland, and other graphics-related discussions for the Linux desktop. Here's a summary of the event that was a great success.
Not a single woman.
Pretty good quality pics, no longer taken with an iphone I presume
I've known plenty of female programmers and they've been pretty darn good. And some of them, at least, don't like to engage in cowboy coding and prefer a more fastidious approach. The programming world could certainly use a dose of that.
We're going thru the greatest (r)evolution in Linux's graphics stack since 1992, isn't it?
I mean, DRI3, DRM2, Wayland, GL3+ open source drivers, the rise of EGL and deprecation of GLX, new OpenGL ABI, deprecation of X11, etc.
When people look different, they get classified, they classify themselves, and then they end up being different. You can't fix that, at best you can isolate people from existing societies so that they produce their own self-fulfilling prejudices.

Don't shoot the messenger Coverage of Newtown tragedy about grief, not exploitation
Sunday, December 30, 2012
I'm sure you've heard the adage: "Don't shoot the messenger."
The mother in the checkout line took one look at the "People Magazine" cover and blew up.
Later, Dan and I talked about what had happened.
I don't know what "People Magazine" does, but when we cover stories like that, we always ask reporters to take on the difficult task of talking to family. If the family says "no," we respect their privacy and leave them alone.

Phoronix: Skype Publishes New Linux APIs w/ Video Support
Skype, now under the control of Microsoft, has announced a new developer preview of SkypeKit. It surprisingly brings good news for Linux users...
Considering that any SkypeKit software must be closed source:Originally Posted by phoronix

As for the news, despite it's surprising that M$ still hadn't killed linux support for Skype I still tend to be skeptical about Skype future on linux. The only reason I see for M$ to keep on supporting linux version of Skype is to create codebase for embeded systems developers wanting to implement linux-based VoIP SoC boxes.
Let's face it, if a Linux user once in a while want to buy a program or game they're very likely to buy windows software which indirectly helps out MS.
Android & IOS users spend more money on software and most of that money aren't helping MS at all.

Lebanon storm clean up update
Wednesday, October 31, 2012
Lebanon Schools are cancelled due to no power (K-5). There are still over 800 homes and businesses in town with no power, which is significantly down from nearly 2000 homes yesterday. They are working hard to restore power to everyone, it is quite a process to restore power to everyone when Lebanon alone had about 40 trees down on power lines after the storm. As of right now, the transfer station has no power and they cannot open without power.

Didn't 7zip already deliver gains over 2-3% with less CPU time required?
Phoronix: Google Unveils "Zopfli" Compression Algorithm
Google has announced Zopfli, a new general purpose data compression library that's open-source. Zopfli implements the Deflate compression algorithm that yields a smaller output size than previous techniques...
Didn't 7zip already deliver gains over 2-3% with less CPU time required?
Is this improvement really even worth a Google engineer's time?
I'm curious: it's the same algorithm...so can zlib decompressors handle it?
Ah, yes:

Theres a mistake in the article. Its not 2-3x slower, its 10-100x slower.
All the same it looks cool The great thing about it is that its an implementation of deflate so the existing clients can decompress it just the same, it just shaves an additional 3-8% off serving any static content where you can devote the server resources to it.
For sure, a more modern algorithm such as sported by 7zip or bzip2 or a myriad of others are better choices where you can dictate the client can decode it, but for mobile especially, a low complexity decoder that does better than stock zlib is great.
Since I'm already using advdef for these purposes (zlib-compatible, but better compression), had to run a quick bench.
gzip and pigz with -9
advdef -z4
zopfli defaults (15 rounds)
Time not included in this chart as only zopfli and advdef were timed.
It compresses about ~2% better than advdef, while using 30% more time. Advdef uses the 7-zip deflate algo.24278 1.04809 pigz.gz
24277 1.04805 gzip.gz

23591 1.01843 ad/pigz.gz
23164 1 ad/zop.gz
23164 1 zop.gz
Can I use it for compressing initrd?
No, it's not going to cause a revolution on the web, it will simply allow certain content to decrease bandwidth use, as such it is a nice tool.

Nasi Goreng Recipe (Indonesian Fried Rice)
Nasi goreng or Indonesian fried rice is one of the most requested recipes on Rasa Malaysia. I have received many emails from readers requesting for a nasi goreng recipe. For those who are anxiously awaiting a nasi goreng post, wait no more as I have gotten just the perfect nasi goreng recipe for you.
Adapted from James Oseland's Cradle of Flavor coobook—a bible for authentic Indonesian and Malaysian/Singapore cuisines—this nasi goreng is the Javanese version of fried rice. As Jim indicated in his cookbook, a truly authentic nasi goreng Indonesia is plain and simple, consisting of leftover rice stir-fried with a flavoring paste. Ingredients such as shrimp, meat, and vegetables are rarely, if ever, added to it.
While nasi goreng is available in Indonesia, Malaysia and Singapore, the Indonesian version is my favorite. Topped with a fried egg (a distinctive note of Indonesian's version), nasi goreng is a meal that is both hearty and gratifying. Making nasi goreng also reminded me of my fond memories while traveling in Indonesia—a country with vibrant and colorful culinary traditions which I intend to explore more in the near future.

Your recipe reminds me my holiday in Bali last year! I had a cooking lesson and learned to make nasi goreng… I've posted my recipe on my blog: http://devousamoi-dominique.blogspot.com/2009/05/nasi-goreng.html
thank you for yours… I'll try with a fried egg.
Have nominated you for the kreativ blogger award….
Love trying out recipes from your blog……
I love fried rice and your version in this post looks wonderful. I love the addition of the fried egg on top- that makes everything better :) Beautiful photos as well!
I love nasi goreng, and this version is very different than the one I make, so I'm looking forward to trying it. Love the fried egg on top!
Pingback:All type of RECIPES!.. » Nasi Goreng (Indonesian Fried Rice) | Asian Recipes and Cooking
I like acar (achar) on the side and in South Sulawesi it always comes with a slice of lime!
I'm an Indo who hasn't been back home for a long time… This sure makes me miss home. Good stuff!
Yes, this is a very homey fried rice. I used to have this for breakfast. Sometimes we scrambled the eggs. However, fried egg is my preferred topping.
Thank you for your kind words for the victims of earthquake in Indonesia as well as the typhoon in the Philippines, Vietnam, and Cambodia.
hello, what are kecap manis and belacan? where can i get them and if not available any suggestions for substitutions? would love to try this as we have leftover rice in rice cooker daily. cultural hazard of being asian :D
Your rice looks fantastic! I just added Cradle of Flavor to my wish list the other day. Can't wait to get it some day soon.
i like oseland's book. i've made some recipes from it and written about them on my blog too. great photo at the top of this post, by the way…
Fried rice with egg–a simple pleasure! Can't wait to try this recipe with an over-easy egg.
I'm so happy I found rasamalaysia.com!!! I LOVE your recipes.
Do you know how to make salted (duck) eggs? Can you use chicken eggs?
I would prefer a salted egg (duck or chicken) with my Nasi Lemak.
Thank you!
This looks so good and simple!! I only have one very poorly stocked asian market where I live.
Can I substitute Fish Sauce for the belacan??
Thanks! Love your blog….
Yeah you can use the fish sauce but go easy with it but this makes it more of a thai dish. to replace the belecan you can use any dried fish or shrimp paste or some times if i have run out i will use crushed or blended dried anchovies( ikan bilis ) far an authentic Kampong (village ) nasi goreng.
Fried rice and egg is a favorite in my house.
The picture is plain gorgeous and makes me drool. I traveled through Malaysia last year, now I want back, desperately :-)
When I lived in Asia, I ate nasi goreng at least once a week. I love it but haven't been able to find a place that makes it well where we live now. I'm so happy that you shared the recipe, now I'll just make it at home!
Hi there,
First of all I really enjoy your blog, I recently made a version of your soto soup and it tasted great, but then I screwed it up by leaving in a lime overnight and the whole thing just tasted bitter, I even served it to guests as it was delicious the day before and because I was fasting I didn't tasted it before serving, anyway I was really bummed but I'm ok now hahah. (sorry bout that)
I'm from Holland and we looove Indonesian food, on top of that my moms adoptive parents were indonesian so I basically grew up with it. In Holland they put a lot of things in their fried rice and call it nasi goreng, but without all the add ins it makes for a better side dish, I think. Definitely trying this version soon.
I love nasi goreng. I love it with the shrimp chip and a side of satay. Yum!
yum yum..this reminds me of Bali too! Simple and tasty!
Can any one help me please. I used to eat a malay halal version of nasi goreng. It was red in colour and with more chilli. is the redness just tomato paste or a colouring or spice. cant seem to find a recipe so if any nice malay people would help me i would be grateful. oh and im also looking for a sarawak style assam laksa recipe. tarima kasi.
will u pls expalin me or give subtitute of these ingrediants. kecaps manis and belacan. thanks
always the best to eat this with shrimp cracker ^^ (not those cheap shrimp crackers of course)
i want to eat nasi goreng, but i dont want nasi goreng kampung, i want nasi goreng payau..that's right i go eat it now!
Just one question: what do you mean by toasting the belacan? Isn't belacan already dry when you buy it from the shops? And when you break it off, it is already granulated. Or does it still require extra toasting?
Thanks lots! This recipe was good =) The one i did today was a little bit bland though coz I was cooking for A LOT of people and I misjudged the amount required for the flavouring paste.
I am so glad I found this recipe. I used to live in Indonesia and haven't had Nasi Goreng in about 10 years. I will definitely be making this recipe. I am so glad you put the egg on top and used traditional ingredients. Can't wait to eat it!!
Hi. This looks like a great recipe. The only thing is that I'm vegetarian (and I don't eat seafood). What can I use instead of shrimp paste? Or can I just leave it out?
thank you for the recipe! my husband and i just came back from our honeymoon in bali, and we fell in love with indonesian food. i can't wait to make this!
wah mantap banget….
Many of your recipes call for red chili's. What kind of chili are you referring to? The Asian market near me only carries Thai, serrano, and jalapeno chilis. None of them are red, but I've been using either Thai or serrano chilis as substitutes. Thanks!
Iam one of nasi goreng lover. And I like to add noodle plus it must be spicy. Hmmm…yummy
Pingback:Our favourite foods of SE Asia « Unexplored Passages
I like this recipe, thnaks
Wahhh,, nyummy banget dahhh.. huhuy..
How happy Iam, I live in semarang (capital city of Central java), every evening….there is a nasi goreng jowo (javanese fried rice) seller….hehehehehehehe
Could you please tell me how to make pie tees?
Thank you for recipe. My hubby & children have Javanese heritage so always trying to find delicious Indo food in Australia & perfect if we can make ourselves.
Could you please confirm if 8oz of rice = 1 cup? We had to much rice but we could tell recipe would be amazing with correct portions. Also, which oil do you suggest? I used olive but thought maybe sesame or peanut might be used as in many asain dishes
Thanks again, we will try your order recipes now I've stumbled across your site
Can you substitute Thai shrimp paste for the belacan?
Please Help me; I have no idea what the following are
Palm Sugar
Toasted Belacan
Kecap Manis
Where can I purchase these items?
Thank you.

Catch our U-17 Earthquakes Academy team battle it out against Brazilian club Palmeiras today at 4 p.m. PT in the club's second game of group play in the Generation Adidas Cup!
The Quakes are in Group C of the tournament along with the Philadelphia Union, Eintracht Frankfurt (GER) and Palmeiras (BRA).
Can't stop thinking about the Quakes Inaugural Match? We can't either! From the stadium's first-ever goal to Krazy George cameos, we look back at the top 12 moments from the Quakes first-ever match at Avaya Stadium.
12. The first celebratory post-game high-five in Avaya Stadium history.
11. The skydivers catching some major air in pursuit of the Avaya Stadium pitch.
10. I don't think there's any dispute: We have the most popular outdoor bar in North America.
9. Krazy George had Avaya Stadium ringing with the EARTH-QUAKES chant before kickoff!
EARTH-QUAKES!!! #MarchHome pic.twitter.com/TPsPeXmAxl
— San Jose Earthquakes (@SJEarthquakes) March 22, 2015
8. The Great Soccer Ball Relay made its 17th and final stop on the Avaya Stadium pitch during the pregame ceremonies.
7. David Bingham showing off his cat-like reflexes to deny Chicago the equalizer.
6. Quakes president Dave Kaval and club ownership take in the opening ceremony ahead of the first kick at Avaya Stadium.
5. Innocent busted out a few of these moves infront of the Quakes faithful.
4. Goosebumps. Eighteen thousands fans hoisted up their inaugural game scraves during the player's walkout.
3. Other MLS supporters need to get to the drawing board to top the San Jose Ultras' breathtaking tifo.
2. There's nothing like the first time for Fatai Alashe and Avaya Stadium.
1. The icing on the cake: three points for the men in black and blue!
Not only do we believe that we can win, the Bay Area believes that the 2014 World Cup in Brazil is the hottest sporting event of the summer.
San Francisco was ranked as the 10th largest market in the country with a 7.2 rating for ESPN's USA vs. Germany telecast. After the match, San Francisco stood as third largest viewing market in the country for World Cup matches on ESPN, ESPN 2 and ABC with a 3.5 rating.
After a record-breaking audience of 18.22 million viewers for the United States 2-2 draw with Portugal on Sunday, June 22, ESPN recorded the second highest-rated men's World Cup match in a 1-0 loss to Germany on Thursday, June 26 with an average minute audience of more than 12 million people across ESPN's television, digital and audio platforms.
The United States marches on to the Round of 16 of the World Cup against Belgium on Tuesday, July 1 at 1:00 p.m. PT in Salvador.
News hits:
With seven days left before the United States' first match in Brazil, U.S. Soccer has released a compilation of 23 feature videos called "One Nation One Team. 23 Stories." This video series provides personal vignettes showcasing each player's off-the-field personality and individual experiences that have shaped them into the players and men they have become today. Follow Quakes own Chris Wondolowski and the rest of the U.S. Men's National team throughout the tournament with U.S. Soccer!
Somewhere in Jacksonville, Harry Nilsson's classic track "Best Friend" is playing over a passing drill between Chris Wondolowski and Brad Davis.
A bromance has rekindled in the build up to Brazil as the two best friends and United States teammates continue their preparation for a June 16 bout against Ghana in the 2014 World Cup.
Wondolowski and Davis were teammates with the San Jose Earthquakes in 2005 and with the Dynamo from 2006-09. Both stars in Major League Soccer, Wondolowski and Davis were invited to the 30-man U.S. National team camp in Palo Alto and later added to the 23-man World Cup roster on May 22. Just days after punching their ticket to Brazil, both shared a sideline suite with their families at Buck Shaw Stadium for a game between the Quakes and the Dynamo.
Talk about a bonding experience.
According to Fox Sports, both vacation together with their families in the offseason with Mexico as a typical destination.
The annual Wondolowski and Davis family vacation will take its next stop in Brazil as the two get set to represent their country at the world's biggest stage. Instead of stepping onto the Mexican coast, Wondolowski and Davis will be stepping onto the pitch for their country, the most memorable "vacation" yet for these two best friends.
Santa Clara men's soccer goalkeeper and San Jose Earthquakes academy product Kendall McIntosh was invited to the U-21 U.S. National Team training camp last week at the U.S. Soccer's National Training Center in Carson, Calif. McIntosh was joined by Stanford forward Jordan Morris as the only two non-professional players selected for the 21-player camp. The Sonoma native played in the second half of a 2-1 win against Mexican amateur side Club Tijuana. This was the first time McIntosh had been called up for under-21 duties after impressive stints with the U-20s and U-17s.
While playing for the U-20's, McIntosh made three starts and played in four games heading into the 2013 FIFA U-20 World Cup. In 2012, he played 495 minutes in six starts, accumulating a 3-1-0 record and a 1.00 goals-against average.
In two years with the U-17's, McIntosh appeared in the 2011 CONCACAF U-17 Championship in Jamaica, posting two clean sheets against Jamaica and Canada and a win against El Salvador to help the USA advance to the FIFA-U17 World Cup in Mexico.
The maturation of Earthquakes rookie JJ Koval in the second month of the 2014 MLS season challenges the notion of an adjustment period for first-year players in the league.
The 21-year old Stanford product has become a fixture in the Quakes midfield in the month of April, logging 295 minutes in six games as a rookie, second only to Chicago Fire rookie Harry Shipp (448). After recording 120 minutes in a CONCACAF quarterfinal loss to Toluca on March 19, Koval transitioned from a gameday substitute in the first four MLS fixtures to a starting midfielder in the last two matches against Colorado on April 19 and Chivas USA on April 26.
In light of the rookies' emergence, Major League Soccer bumped Koval to number two in the MLS Rookie Rankings, up from number five just a week earlier. After earning a 1-0 win against Chivas USA in Week 8, Soccer By Ives named Koval the SBI MLS Rookie of the Week, only the second rookie in the 2014 season to be honored.
For the ninth overall selection in the 2014 MLS SuperDraft, success has derived from an unshaken poise on the field, a quality habitually absent in first-year players. Koval's veteran savvy is a direct result of his vocal leadership, unshaken versatility both in the midfield and defense, and growing reputation as a hard-nosed defensive juggernaut.
After a strong showing in the month of April, Koval is positioned for a bright month of May. The Quakes open the third month of the season with three matches in eight days, two of which will be played at Buck Shaw Stadium. After conceding only one goal in the last three games, Koval will look to anchor the Quakes midfield in search of consecutive three point matches, all in a day's work for one of the most promising rookies in MLS.

Hello Ian
Just to let you know that the garden furniture was delivered at lunch time.
Delivered in the pouring rain and freeing cold.
I must admit we are very impressed with your efficiency and personal service. We would have no hesitation in recommending you. We were initially hesitant as you are so far away; however, we both felt that any business prepared to publish photos and contact details of its staff had to be worth a try - and we weren't wrong.

Don't have much time left, only 2 days :/
So one of my friends was going to get me a laptop, and in the end, the choices he gave me were very similar, mainly differing in the IGP.
And they were:
Intel GMA 950
GeForce 7000M (I never heard of it untill I saw it on the laptop)
Intel GMA X3100 (I'm not even sure this one's an option, there are way too many games that don't run on it on linux)
First of all, which one of these is faster?
Also, can you even run games like Savage, Regnum Online and such on and Intel card? I tried for days on my friend's PC with a X3100 and it never worked. Even Cedega and Wine didn't work well.
Last, would any of these be able to handle running World of Warcraft or Urban Terror at 1024x768 at medium/low settings without dropping below 15~20 FPS?
Don't have much time left, only 2 days :/
The Intel IGP has a much better open-source driver, so you can get a better setup out of the box than with the NVIDIA GPU. However, the NVIDIA 7000M will be more powerful and perform better than the Intel setup when you use the NVIDIA driver and you'll be able to buy a better laptop for the money since it uses a more-competitively-priced AMD CPU instead of an Intel one. But sometimes you get a cruddy incompatible WLAN card with an AMD setup while it is almost unheard of to get one that's not an Intel WLAN card (and decently supported) with an Intel CPU and IGP unless you buy a Dell.
So it's all in what you value most:
1. If you want a guarantee that it will work well out of the box with very little to no fiddling, get the unit with the Intel GMA X3100 and the Centrino label as it guarantees you have an Intel WLAN card.
2. If you want a more powerful unit for less money, go for the GeForce 7000M and AMD setup. You will have to install some drivers to get things to work properly, but it's not likely going to be that big of a deal.
Good luck!
Well just one hint: usually you have to use forcedeth as network driver with nvidia chipset. I had here one hp laptop which had such a nic and that really sucked. It was slow as hell (something like double ISDN rate) in 1 GBit mode, only 100 MBit worked normally.
I don't talk about internet but my home network is usually gbit via gigabit switch. Much better for transfering huge amounts of data.

StyleOnTheCouch Loves: Clover Canyonfeatured
Clover Canyon, who showed their designs for the first time at New York Fashion Week last year, describe themselves as 'a celebration of beauty'. Certainly one cannot help but be drawn to their bold, unique and eye catching designs – as if the world of Erdem and Pilotto collided to create this summer's series of structured shapes with vivid prints. Made in-house in California the brand also embodies that carefree spirit and cheerfully boho vibe that the area represents.
In an interview with Examiner magazine, Clover Canyon designer Rozae Nichols spoke about the inspiration behind spring summer 2013:
"We are inspired by the vast and varied landscape of the American Southwest – traveling then back to the West – surf side of Baja California. This is a collective of memories of not-so-long so ago travels. Classic muscle and low-rider cars, highways, bandana paisleys, disco ball-glass tiles framed by cannabis leaves, Trompe-l'oeil Burlap and denim textures! Collisions of pattern and color in our signature graphic engineered forms. Colors are reflected in distinctive palettes: metallic car paints, grass greens, bamboo & baha grass surf shack greens and fuchsia and yellows. Shapes are a mix of proportions – from voluminous jackets layered with streamlined capris and men's classic creased slacks to halter dresses topped with paisley-print featherweight raincoats."
What I love about Clover Canyon is how the pieces work so well together as well as separately. It doesn't half encourage you to snap up the whole collection so you can start mixing and matching. I'm excited to see what the brand comes up with next season! In the meantime you can get your Clover Canyon fix on Net a Porter, Shopbop and The Outnet.
