The Cup was won with Gambhir as an integral part of the triumph
There are many in this team who can thrill people. Sachin Tendulkar, Virender Sehwag, Yuvraj Singh, Mahendra Singh Dhoni...But Gautam Gambhir thrills them differently.
He loves a fight. He could have been a good boxer. He is mentally tuned to indulge in a combat at the shortest notice. So what if he is short in stature? "Height does not matter," he asserts. His mantra is simple: "Adaptability and adjustment make you ready for any battle." This is what he has been reminding himself from the time he slammed a century, as a 12-year-old, or maybe 13, in a local tournament.
Gambhir can be really explosive — the strokes from his bat matching his temper, hurting the bowler, embarrassing the fielders. They often watch in exasperation, as did the Sri Lankans the other night when the left-hander went about repairing the early damage of losing Sehwag and Tendulkar.
As the crowd roars and the bowlers wilt, he makes his moves. Not that he waits for such an opening. If the first ball he faces deserves punishment, it will be dealt with appropriately. "Learnt it from Viru (Sehwag)," he confessed once.
Gambhir grew in Sehwag's shadow, aping him, idolising him, and sometimes matching him, but always admiring his range of shots.
Blessed with talent, and a strong mind, why does he lose temper then? It is put on, to push himself, to set up a fight. Nothing can put him down; nothing. The state of the pitch and the character of the opposition do not matter to him.
Call it arrogance. Or confidence.
He remembers his strong points when the fight begins. Nothing has changed in his game. He wants to dominate, dictate, and, essentially, perform. He loves to create a situation and then tackle it like a champion. He has grown to back himself and has often succeeded.
Champions love to be part of a weak outfit and take on the formidable. Gambhir belongs to that league.
A difficult period
Imagine, he had chucked away his bat in 2007 on being ignored for the World Cup. It was a difficult period. He knew nothing other than cricket. And cricket suddenly appeared to be slipping from his grasp. Close to quitting, he reminded himself of the days when he pursued the dream of winning the World Cup for India.
So, he went back to local competitions, domestic circuit, and lit up the contests with his fireworks, sometimes verbal, but mostly cricketing.
Guiding him right through was Sehwag, one explosive batsman challenging the other. Sehwag would tease him, saying, "you can come in only if you displace me. Try!" And Gambhir tried, not to displace Sehwag, but take a leaf out of his philosophy. By fighting for his space in Indian cricket.
To get the best out of his bat, he needed to live with the willow. He did just that, backed by coach Sanjay Bhardwaj.
A few saw Gambhir toil in blistering heat, hone his skills, and prepare to conquer, which he did with a match-winning performance. He was denied a century by three runs — his own making — but then he had done his job.
He had dreamt of this occasion. He lost the man of the match award but won the match!
A man of few words
Gambhir, 29, is a man of few words. But he loves to speak through his cricket, his bat doing the talking. You may not need a stump mike to hear his outbursts against the opposition, especially Shahid Afridi, but you would have to strain your ears during one-on-one close conversations with him.
He can be polite to a fault but tough to argue with when he decides to take on the opponent to make a point.
He was learning to walk when India won the World Cup in 1983. On Saturday night, he was one of the wings on which Indian cricket took a concerted flight. The Cup was won with Gambhir as an integral part of the triumph.
A dream was realised at the Wankhede Stadium. And Gambhir, as is his wont, controlled his emotions. Fighters don't shed tears when they win. Gambhir,the street fighter, perhaps, has saved the tears of joy for another day.

That's right, 180 Distribution (our main headquarters) have moved. This is what they had to say:
"After 5 years being at our current location on Milroy, we decided to make a new move on over to Anaheim. While one would think we're moving closer to Disneyland and an array of strip clubs Anaheim has to offer, we decided it was time to get out of dodge for a number of reasons; We originally moved into our freshly renovated 12k sq ft warehouse for a new shoe brand (Hour) and an adult line of bikes (Resist), on top of Volume and Demolition. The shoes and adult bikes took on a life of their own and later lay to rest with broken dreams. On top of that our "haunted" building was full of problems that we could have swam in every year after a good SoCal rain. We now welcome Anacrime as our new home at 2760 E Regal Park Dr, Anaheim CA 92806 and with a new toll free number (877.488.1369). Ramps, products and everything else just made the move to the happiest city on earth…"
One of the standout things in our Finer Things DVD is the music that goes along with the riding. The classic 60s-70s psych rock that Mike put together are some of the rarest soundtracks in a bmx video that I've yet to hear. Just like many classic videos, you can visualize the riding with the songs. I still consider Mat Hoffman's Head First Fugazi's Blueprint song to be one of the most iconic songs/ parts and can still visualize that whole section every time I hear that song still today, and think The Finer Things songs/parts are very similar in that way too. One of our Finer Things fans (Tom Edgington) put together our soundtrack playlist to his YouTube channel HERE >> Hopefully it'll get you stoked to ride or just chill out and listen to some great 60s-70s psych rock.

Explore the personal stories of Syrian refugees in Lebanon
10 Oct 2012 17:02 GMT | Sport, Tennis, US & Canada, Bulgaria, Canada
Top seeds Roger Federer and Novak Djokovic cruised into the third round of the Shanghai Masters on Wednesday as defending champion Andy Murray progressed without even picking up a racquet.As the tournament kicked into life with the introduction of the big guns, America's Sam Querrey sent Kei Nishikori tumbling 2-6, 6-1, 6-4 just days after his opponent became the first Japanese player to win the Japan Open.Swiss world number one Federer, battling to cling on to his top ranking, beat Taiwanese qualifier Lu Yen-hsun 6-3, 7-5 to set up a clash with fellow countryman Stanislas Wawrinka.Federer's build-up to the Shanghai tournament was clouded by a death threat from a blogger in China but the 17-time Grand Slam champion said he quickly put it out of his mind once he was on court."I thought it was a good match for me. Obviously not having been broken is a good thing early on in a tournament. You hope it sets a trend for more to come," he said. Speaking about the threat, Federer said: "I felt fine, you know. There was maybe one quick thought." But he said: "Once the match started, got under way, I never thought about it again."
Djokovic, who will regain the world number one ranking if he wins the title and Federer loses before the quarter-finals, dismissed Bulgaria's Grigor Dimitrov 6-3, 6-2 in just 54 minutes."Very pleased with my serving in Beijing and obviously the first match today," said the second seed, who lost just five of his service points.
"So that's something that I've been working on, obviously."
'Andy for Murray
The Serbian will next play Spaniard Feliciano Lopez, who beat German 16th seed Philipp Kohlschreiber 6-3, 6-4.US Open champion Andy Murray did not even have to take to the court as Germany's Florian Mayer withdrew with a rib injury, giving the Scot a walkover. He has still not played yet as the top eight seeds had a first-round bye.
"I'll practise again. I mean, you never know whether it's a good or a bad thing. I mean, you're obviously prepared to play the match," said third seed Murray, who next faces Alexandr Dolgopolov of the Ukraine.
"I broke him first in the third set but couldn't finish the match. It's disappointing but I was close to win with this injury. Nothing I can do"
Japan's Kei Nishikori
Japan's Nishikori, suffering from an ankle problem, was brought down to earth with a bump after his title win despite a strong start against Querrey, who won five straight games from 4-1 down in the decider to seal the match.Nishikori, at a career high of number 15 in the rankings after his weekend win on home soil against Canada's Milos Raonic, had on-court treatment on his right ankle, which he said had been bothering him since last week."I tried to play but he had a good serve," he said.
"I broke him first in the third set but couldn't finish the match. It's disappointing but I was close to win with this injury. Nothing I can do," he said.There were second round wins for fourth seed Tomas Berdych of the Czech Republic, fifth-seeded Frenchman Jo-Wilfried Tsonga, sixth seed Janko Tipsarevic of Serbia and 13th seed Wawrinka.But among the seeds to fall were Raonic and the French pair of Richard Gasquet and Gilles Simon.As the season enters its final stages there are four places still up for grabs at next month's season-ending World Tour Finals in London. Federer, Djokovic and Murray have all qualified, along with the injured Rafael Nadal.

Flick through Photos with the Photo Image Viewer
Productivity Sauce
Photo is not the most sophisticated image viewer out there, but it offers a perfect blend of simplicity and flexibility that makes it a handy utility, indeed. This lightweight application has a full-screen keyboard shortcuts-driven interface which doesn't stand in your way. This alone makes Photo an ideal tool for showcasing your snaps. As you would expect, Photo supports a wide range of graphics formats, including JPEG, TIFF, PNG, and PPM.
Practically all common actions in Photo (zoom in out, show next or previous previous photo, open file, etc.) can be performed using keyboard shortcuts. The application also allows you to edit the default key bindings as well as specify custom shortcuts. To do this, evoke the main menu by moving the mouse to the top edge of the interface, choose Settings, and switch to the Shortcuts section. While you are at it, you might as well adjust other settings. For example, you can enable the tray icon and configure the transition effect in the Interface section. If you'd like to display EXIF metadata when viewing photos, use Ctrl+E to show and hide the widget. You can then specify which specific EXIF entries to show in the Settings | Exif Information section.
Photo won't replace viewers like Geeqie, gThumb, or Gwenview, but it can come in handy in situations when you want to view or show a bunch of photos with a minimum of fuss. The project's website provides binary packages for many popular Linux distributions, including Mageia, Ubuntu, openSUSE, and Arch.comments powered by Disqus

Smoking, the final word………promise this time
July 25, 2014 -
John Heald -
130 Comments
The title of a blog I wrote last week was "Smoking…..the last word." Obviously, that title meant nothing because here I am, sitting in my underpants, talking to you about it again. I realise that along with politics, religion, reasons to dislike the French, and if I would look good covered in whipped cream and chocolate, that smoking is a subject that stirs the soul and divides opinions. But I have an inbox with over 200 comments alone on the subject of smoking. I will as you will see in today's Q and A, be accused of "covering up the issue" and "sweeping it under the carpet" which, of course, is not true because, embarrassingly, I have not swept anything anywhere well….. ever. I also realise that I am in a no-win situation if I continue to discuss this here or on my Facebook page but after the new rules were announced and then another line (the one with graffiti over their bows) announced the same, I am afraid I have bugger all choice. But before I do, let's go back in time. (more…)

Portland Bill Lighthouse, and Trinity monument, Dorset, UK.
Canon powershot s90
Layered with my own texture in Elements then painted in DAP in realism mode with expressive bias.
Portland Bill and Chesil Beach are the graveyards of many vessels that failed to reach Weymouth or Portland Roads. The Portland Race is caused by the meeting of the tides between the Bill and the Shambles sandbank about 3 miles SE. Strong currents break the sea so fiercely that from the shore a continuous disturbance can be seen.
Portland Bill Lighthouse guides vessels heading for Portland and Weymouth through these hazardous waters as well as acting as a waymark for ships navigating the English Channel.

Strong language for a PG rating!,
Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Summer Wars (DVD)
My kids ages 10 and 12 love movies by hayao Miyazaki, "howl's moving castle" etc. So I thought this might be a good fit for them. However, I am appalled by the use of curse words throughout the movie. Guess I was wrong in choosing this. So I just thought I should let others know incase they make the same mistake!

PG movies allow some language, and there are even PG-13 movies that contain nudity. ( and I don't mean 'partial-nudity' where it just shows someones butt ) In my opinion at ages 10 - 12, they should know not to use the words being used in the movie.

It's rated PG not G. If your ever watched a PG movie in your entire life you should be aware that there might be mild swearing. And your exaggerating a bit when you say "Strong language" because as I recall, there were only about 2 mild curse words in this movie. Don't rate a fantastic movie 2 stars because of your negligence.

lol, trust me when I say Miyazaki-sensei films (all genius repsected) are NOT comparable animes to most...an honest mistake..and besides, I'm sure in the Japanese versions of Miyazaki-sensei's films that aren't "Disney-fied" there is PLENTY of profanity....lol!

James says:
If you feel that way toward films ratings, make sure to read the box. Under PG it states "Action, Violence, some suggestive content, language, mild thematic material and incidental smoking" You might want to look at the Parent's Guide on IMBD that lists the different instances that you might find objectionable. On one more note, one of your children is going to be turning 13 soon, and will be able to see PG-13 movies. If they are not ready for this kind of material, they are in no way ready for PG-13 films.

Parenting fail. There aren't even that many curse words in and and truthfully, I went to a good elementary school (in a good neighborhood and all that) we knew a glossary of curse words by around 8-10 years old. So unless you're homeschooled, it's nothing new to them really.

Short Cuts
Birth: 1136
Death: 1188
Humbert, of Avigliana, Italy, succeeded his father as Count of Savoy, France at an early age, having received his education and spiritual formation from a saint, the bishop Amadeus of Lausanne. While serving as the married sovereign of Savoy, Humbert continued his life of deep piety. Following his wife�s death, he withdrew to the Lake Geneva monastery of Aulpes. But his courtiers insisted that for the good of Savoy he should return and re-marry. Humbert acceded to their entreaties, and his second wife gave birth to his first child, Agnes. Tragedy again struck the Savoy household when shortly before Agnes� wedding both she and her mother died. After marrying a third time and having a son, Humbert withdrew to the monastery of Hautecombe, France, living there in great humility and self-denial. Acounts of his final years vary, with some asserting he died at Hautecombe, and others claiming he died at Chambery while defending Savoy from an invading army. Less than three centuries later, the descendants of Humbert, of the Savoy lineage, became the custodians of the Shroud of Turin.

Minnesota-Air Force Quotes
Dec. 29, 2012
Minnesota Head Coach Don Lucia
On tonight's win and Air Force...
"I liked the way we played tonight. I think we had a good meeting and, number one, we respected Air Force, what they've been able to accomplish the last half a dozen years--five years in the NCAAs, winning their conference tournament to get in. Everybody they've played in that situation, it's been a tough out for them. They played the type of game I expected. They skate well. They compete hard."
"I went down and met him after the game. It's unbelievable, 925 games. He's been doing it a long time. I told him, 'I'm no threat. Don't worry about that. I won't be doing it that long.' He's always been a class guy. For me -- I've been doing this a long time -- it was kind of neat to see it happen here. I'm sure he would like to have had it happen back out east, probably against BU if he had his druthers. But they've been an outstanding program, a measuring stick for everybody in college hockey."
On his first career goal...
"It felt really good. What can you say? It was 1-0 and then (Christian) Isackson made a great play down low and fed me, and luckily, I was there and put it away. It felt so good."

Reports from Washington: blog from UE student and picture from New Harmony students
WASHINGTON, D.C. - This is part of the second blog installment from UE student and former Brad Ellsworth staffer Peter Hanscom. You can continue to follow his blog throughout Tuesday at BLOGS FROM THE INAUGURATION
It's just after midnight and the anticipation is building! Let me fill you in on some of the events that I have left out, to date. Hold on, you're in for a wild ride.
The first official inaugural event I attended was the concert held at the Lincoln Memorial on Saturday. We showed up only 3 hours in advance and still had to fight our way through the crowds and trees to get a good view of the monument and concert. Fortunately, we were lucky enough to position ourselves in the perfect location just to the right of the reflecting pool, close enough to be able to make out the artists performing without the help of the jumbotrons. Never again will I see so many talented musicians on the same stage together. What a show! Despite being crammed in tight next to strangers, many of whom had bad gas and stinky breath, I thoroughly enjoyed the concert. Mainly I met students from all over the country but the demographic was one of the most diverse I have ever been around. Not to sound like Michelle Obama, but after attending this event I am truly proud of my country. I fully understand what it is to be an American. Everyone I met was different and we were all there for our own unique reasons but we had one thing in common: We were proud of our country, our heritage, our leadership and ourselves. Barack Obama has restored hope in our people in a time when we need it most. When the area I was standing in reached limits beyond what would have been considered maximum capacity, people started climbing trees, hoisting flags and leading U-S-A chants, which were repeated by the millions surrounding them. Every tree near me had a group in it either singing along or encouraging chants of American pride. Today I witnessed millions of Americans exercising freedoms that were both liberating and appalling.
I am truly witnessing history being made right before my eyes. Washington D.C. is bustling with life unlike I have ever witnessed before. As a student from the University of Evansville and a former staff member of Brad Ellsworth, I feel blessed to have the opportunity to be here along with millions of others to celebrate the inauguration of our next president.
I started off my journey on Friday night after classes let out and drove straight through the night, arriving early the next morning at a friend's house in Arlington. The entire DC metropolitan area is crazed with Obamania. During my first metro ride and trip to the city, I was immediately exposed to vendors who have come from all over the country to line the streets selling products to the millions of visitors grappling to commemorate their trip with cheap trinkets and screen printed tees. I can honestly say that I have never seen such a large crowd of people in my entire life.
From what I have witnessed thus far, it seems that DC police and the inauguration committee have coordinated security and crowd control efforts perfectly, allowing for remotely easy transportation. However, during my metro trip this morning towards the House Office Buildings to pick up my ticket to the inauguration, I got stuck down in the platform where the trains enter and exit. There were simply too many people all trying to go to the same place at once. I ended up waiting in line to exit for about 20 minutes until I finally inched my way up the stairs and out the turnstiles. As the inauguration gets closer the crowds only seem to grow larger.
I have so much more to tell but there is so little time to actually document it all. Stay tuned for more updates and hopefully I will find a way to post my pictures. If you have any questions or anything you would like to hear about feel free to reply to this post and I will be able to tailor further entries towards what you all are interested in hearing about.

Fashion's fancy for all things tweedy and trad English – yet another 70s trend enjoying a renaissance this autumn – prompted us to dig out these photos from the Great Outdoors section of our book. The would-be country squire with the beard is Roger Saul, founder of Mulberry, with his wife Monty. He was inspired to launch the label after spotting outdoorsy accessories at an agricultural show in 1975, and kick-started one of the late 70s' biggest trends. And Kenzo Takada saw the potential of the hacking-jacket-and-riding-boots look back in 1973, mixing it up with prairie flounces and a borrowed-from-the-boyfriend trilby. Proto-Annie Hall?
Talking of which, Kenzo celebrates its 40th birthday this year and is to be the next subject of the V&A's Fashion in Motion series, on November 12. Look out for a range of limited-edition items launched to coincide with this – including this super-cute knit-it-yourself kit from the Kenzo archive. Rizzoli will also be publishing a monograph on Kenzo.

I am going to SD area for the weekend, today. Only staying 'til Sunday. I found like 6 microbrews within 15 miles of where we are staying. Stone is 20 miles away. Should I try to do a tour there? I went on a tour at Red Hook, it was a lot of fun, so even though I think I'd prefer a smaller place, the tour at Stone would probably be cool (if I can get in).
Is Pizza Port any good?
Any other place that is good? I'm going to be in Solana Beach.
Yes, you should definitely go to Stone. Halfway between Stone (Escondido) and Solana Beach there are a few really good breweries, from south to north: Stumblefoot, Iron Fist, Mother Earth and Port/Lost Abbey. Also right near Iron Fist is Latitude 33 which I hear is very good but I haven't been. To the south you should check out Green Flash and Society.
Pizza Port makes great pizza and has a very good beer lineup, plus it's just a cool place to hang outside. Gets packed though.
Ballast Point is a must. It's about 20-25 minutes south of Stone. Alesmith, Hess, Green Flash, White Labs, St. Archer(new), intergalactic(new), and rough draft are all within 10 minutes of Ballast Point as well.
If you only want to stay in North County, I would go to Belching Beaver, Port/lost abbey, Latitude 33, and Pizza Port. Like lpdjshaw said, pizza port is sweet because they have bomb pizza and great beers.

Well, went to Stone today, super busy and going back tomorrow. Stopped at Stumblefoot, had a great afternoon. Went to Pizza Port in Carlsbad for dinner; pizza was great and their Carlsbad Chronic was good. Thanks for the info guys!
I've heard great things about Offbeat brewing as well. They are just down the street from Stone, could be worth checking out!
Tour at Stone was cool. It is a really cool place. Had an Iron Fist beer while I was there, it was good. Stumblefoot was cool, Pizza Port had great pizza, good beer. I like SD!
You barely hit the tip of the iceberg. There's 66 breweries here haha.
Yeah, I am thinking of getting some friends to go again sometime soon. The place we stayed has more space and is in a great location, great price (a friend's vacation condo). This was just a last-minute thing, so I'm glad I got a few breweries in. But planning a little 'tour' of spots nearby would be awesome.
I was surprised but when we got home last night I didn't feel like any beer! My wife is pregnant so I had all her tasters at Stone and a lot at Stumblefoot. It wasn't the volume really, but the variety of full-flavored beers going down pretty quick, I just had enough. But that has never happened for me - not wanting any more beer.
Great trip, thanks for the tips!
OK, I'm headed to San Diego for 7 days starting Saturday. Keep the brewery suggestions flowing if you would. I'm staying in gaslight Saturday night, La Jolla the next two and then who knows...
Everything listed above still stands. You can pretty much start driving in any direction and hit some awesome breweries.
I would hit up Alesmith, Societe and Hess on one day. i prefer Alesmith the most, but Societe has some very fine beers.

The Bone Marrow Transplant Program at Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center has received a 3-year accreditation from the Foundation for the Accreditation of Hematopoietic Cell Therapy (FACHT).
The Medical Center''s Bone Marrow Transplant Program is one of only 76 programs in the country accredited for autologous and allogeneic bone marrow and peripheral blood progenitor cell transplantation, and is currently the only FACHT Accredited Transplant Program in North or South Carolina. Autologous transplantation is where the patient''s own bone marrow or stem cells are used, and allogeneic uses stem cells from a related or unrelated donor.
"This accreditation is testament to the excellent work done by our staff at the Medical Center," said David Hurd, M.D. head of the Transplant Program. "Transplantation has become the treatment of choice for a number of cancers. Through clinical trials, we compare transplant outcomes with other treatment options, so we are always evaluating the best treatments for our patients."
The Transplant Program has been approved by the National Marrow Donor Program (NMDP) as a Transplant Center since 1994 and as a Collection Center since 1991. It is the second largest Collection Center for the NMDP in the United States.

What are the technical reasons why languages like Python and Ruby are interpreted (out of the box) instead of compiled? It seems to me like it should not be too hard for people knowledgeable in this domain to make these languages not be interpreted like they are today, and we would see significant performance gains. So certainly I am missing something.
Several reasons:
Think of what would happen if the system was not interpreted. Say you used translation-to-C as the mechanism. The compiled code would periodically have to check if it had been superseded by metaprogramming. A similar situation arises with
The only alternative here is a JIT compiler. These systems are highly complex and sophisticated and have even bigger run-time footprints than all the other alternatives. They start up very slowly, making them impractical for scripting. Ever seen a Java script? I haven't.
So, you have two choices:
It's not surprising that generally the primary implementation just goes with the second choice. It's quite possible that some day we may see secondary implementations like compilers appearing. Ruby 1.9 and Python have bytecode VM's; those are ½-way there. A compiler might target just non-dynamic code, or it might have various levels of language support declarable as options. But since such a thing can't be the primary implementation, it represents a lot of work for a very marginal benefit. Ruby already has 200,000 lines of C in it...
I suppose I should add that one can always add a compiled C (or, with some effort, any other language) extension. So, say you have a slow numerical operation. If you add, say
Exactly like (in the typical implementation of) Java or C#, Python gets first compiled into some form of bytecode, depending on the implementation (CPython uses a specialized form of its own, Jython uses JVM just like a typical Java, IronPython uses CLR just like a typical C#, and so forth) -- that bytecode then gets further processed for execution by a virtual machine (AKA interpreter), which may also generate machine code "just in time" -- known as JIT -- if and when warranted (CLR and JVM implementations often do, CPython's own virtual machine typically doesn't but can be made to do so e.g. with psyco or Unladen Swallow).
JIT may pay for itself for sufficiently long-running programs (if memory's way cheaper than CPU cycles), but it may not (due to slower startup times and larger memory footprint), especially when the types also have to be inferred or specialized as part of the code generation. Generating machine code without type inference or specialization is easy if that's what you want, e.g. freeze does it for you, but it really doesn't present the advantages that "machine code fetishists" attribute to it. E.g., you get an executable binary of 1.5 to 2 MB in lieu of a tiny "hello world"
Merely replacing an interpreter with a compiler won't give you as big a performance boost as you might think for a language like Python. When most time is actually spend doing symbolic lookups of object members in dictionaries, it doesn't really matter if the call to the function performing such lookup is interpreted, or is native machine code - the difference, while not quite negligible, will be dwarfed by lookup overhead.
To really improve performance, you need optimizing compilers. And optimization techniques here are very different from what you have with C++, or even Java JIT - an optimizing compiler for a dynamically typed / duck typed language such as Python needs to do some very creative type inference (including probabilistic - i.e. "90% chance of it being T" and then generating efficient machine code for that case with a check/branch before it) and escape analysis. This is hard.
I think the biggest reason for the languages being interpreted is portability. As a programmer you can write code that will run in an interpreter not a specific OS. So your programs behave more uniformly across platforms (more so than compiled languages). Another advantage I can think of is it's easier to have a dynamic type system in an interpreted language. I think the creators of the language were thinking having a language where programmers can be more productive due to automatic memory management, dynamic type system and meta programming wins over any performance loss due to the language being interpreted. If you are concerned about performance you can always compile the language to native machine code employing a technique like JIT compilation.
Today, there is no longer a strong distinction between "compiled" and "interpreted" languages. Python is in fact compiled just as much as Java is, the only differences are:
Python even has a function called
It sounds like the distinction you are making is between "dynamically typed" and "statically typed" languages. In dynamic languages such as Python, you can write code like:
Notice that the types of
Python has projects such as Psyco, PyPy, and Unladen Swallow that take various approaches to compiling Python object code into something closer to native code. There is active research in this area but there is not (as yet) a simple answer.
The effort required to create a good compiler to generate native code for a new language is staggering. Small research groups typically take 5 to 10 years (examples: SML/NJ, Haskell, Clean, Cecil, lcc, Objective Caml, MLton, and many others). And when the language in question requires type checking and other decisions to be made at run time, a compiler writer has to work much harder to get good native-code performance (for an excellent example, see work by Craig Chambers and later Urs Hoelzle on Self). The performance gains you might hope for are harder to realize than you might think. This phenomenon partly explains why so many dynamically typed languages are interpreted.
As noted, a decent interpreter is also instantly portable, while porting compilers to new machine architectures takes substantial effort (and is a problem I personally have been working on for over 20 years, with some time off for good behavior). So an interpreter is a way to reach a wide audience quickly.
Finally, although fast compilers and slow interpreters exist, it's usually easer to make the edit-translate-go cycle faster by using an interpreter. (For some nice examples of fast compilers see the aforementioned lcc as well as Ken Thompson's go compiler. For an example of a relatively slow interpreter see GHCi.
Well, isn't one of the strengths of these languages that they are so easily scriptable? They wouldn't be if they were compiled. And on the other hand, dynamic languages are easier to intereprete than to compile.
In a compiled language, the loop you get into when making software is
Interpreted languages tend to be faster to make stuff in because you get to cut out step two of that process (and when you're dealing with a large system where compile times can be upwards of two minutes, step two can add a significant amount of time).
This isn't necessarily the reason python|ruby designers thought of, but keep in mind that "How efficiently does the machine run this?" is only half the software development problem.
It also seems like it would be easier to compile code in a language that's interpreted naturally than it would be to add an interpreter to a language that's compiled by default.
REPL. Don't knock it 'till you've tried it. :)
By design.
The authors wanted something where they can write scripts into.
Python gets compiled the first time it is executed though
Compiling Ruby at least is notoriously hard. I'm working on one, and as part of that I wrote a blog post enumerating some of the issues here.
Specifically, Ruby is suffering from a very unclear (i.e. non-existent) boundary between the "read" and "execute" phase of the program that makes it hard to compile efficiently. You could just emulate what the interpreter does, but then you're not going to see much speed up, so it wouldn't be worth the effort. If you want to compile it efficiently you then face a lot of additional complications to handle the extreme level of dynamism in Ruby.
The good news is that there are techniques for overcoming this. Self, Smalltalk and Lisp/Scheme's have dealt quite successfully with most of the same issues. But it takes time to sift through it and figure out how to make it work with Ruby. It also doesn't help that Ruby has a very convoluted grammar.
Raw compute performance is probably not a goal of most interpreted languages. Interpreted languages are typically more concerned about programmer productivity than raw speed. In most cases these languages are plenty fast enough for the tasks the languages were designed to tackle.
Given that, and that just about the only advantages of a compiler are type checking (difficult to do in a dynamic language) and speed, there's not much incentive to write compilers for most interpreted languages.

We arrive at the KOA in Bismarck, just a mile north of I-94, start setting up, across from us is a Monaco Diplomat coach. Then I notice the "American RV" decal. We headed over to chat and sure enough he bought it from the same dealer in Grand Rapids, MI. Had a great discussion and find that quite a coincidence we would cross paths in Bismarck, ...
Driving across North Dakota
... 8217;m definitely in the Great Plains now, the area surrounding Bismarck is flat and nearly treeless. You get views for miles, though there's really not much to look at (go figure).
