What a wonderful game Barcelona played against Malaga.
It was superb on so many levels; the consistency of the tempo, the way they went for their third goal and the way they achieved control of the ball, all the time.
Malaga did really well apart from the Ignacio Camacho mistake for the first goal, but while they did really well for the first 40 minutes or so, Barcelona kept going and going and going and you have to say that they looked better than they did last year under Pep Guardiola.
I think people are forgetting that during the first three years of Guardiola there were aspects that were extraordinary, like the Club World Cup win against Santos, for instance, and the Champions League final against Manchester United.
That can be dismissed so quickly by people, but certainly Tito Vilanova, after a few months, has balanced things out and has tried to create a collective sense that was missing at the beginning of the season. He's doing that by adding layers.

I must admit that at the beginning of the campaign I thought he was trying to produce a different kind of Barcelona. In fact he's succeeded at that, so you've got the Barcelona of Guardiola still present, in terms of the positional game and in terms of passing, but also they can now play very direct. That kind of dichotomy now works very fluently.
As for Real Madrid, people are saying in Spain that football is a state of the mind and Real have lost competitiveness in La Liga because they have given up on it.
You could see a lot of clues in the body language of Jose Mourinho, who didn't even get upset at Kaka's sending off. You could see it in the substitutions, like playing Kaka, who he doesn't trust any more. You could see it towards the end of the game when the team just dropped deep and there was not really anybody trying to push the team forward or trying to look for a reaction, they weren't biting.
It's the kind of attitude you have when you know you're playing for nothing. The problem is raising the level when they need to. All the coaches I've been talking to about this suggest that you need to keep a very high level to then play Manchester United at your best and they don't seem to understand that or they don't seem to be able to do that.
That's a frustration for Jose Mourinho certainly.

Hi Guillem. If Mourinho leaves in the summer who do you think will get the job? Will it be Carlo Ancelotti, Rafa Benitez or Marcello Lippi? Do you think there is any chance of Vicente Del Bosque coming back to Real Madrid? Thanks, David Fullam
GUILLEM REPLIES: Benitez has a got a couple of very good friends in the hierarchy at Real Madrid and I am sure he will be one of the ones approached. Lippi has said he doesn't want to come to Real Madrid and Ancelotti sounds like the kind of coach Real Madrid will go for as well, especially because Ancelotti feels his cycle at PSG may be finished early. I have heard, but it's only a rumour, that PSG may approach Jose Mourinho or Arsene Wenger for the job which will be interesting because it will create a fascinating domino effect. Del Bosque will definitely not come back to Real Madrid as long as Florentino P�rez is there. He was the one who got rid of Del Bosque or didn't renew his contract because he felt he represented a very old-fashioned way and Real Madrid needed a new notebook. Those are exactly the words used by one of the directors there when they decided not to renew Del Bosque's contract.
Hi Guillem, I always look forward to your La Liga analysis, very incisive. With all the health problems that Tito has been facing, has any concerns arisen in the Barca hierarchy with regards to his continuation next season or has anyone been shortlisted to replace him in the worst case scenario if Tito, understandably, decides to take a back seat in a less-demanding role at the club? Pradeep Shenoy
GUILLEM REPLIES: There is no question about looking for a plan B for Tito. It is obviously worrying that he's had to go to New York for a second opinion, but everybody is going to back him up and in the meantime both his assistants and especially the players take charge of the team when he's not there.
Guillem, Do you think that Lionel Messi would be able to stick the play in the Premier League? You see teams in the Premier League go in for tackles to rattle the opposition which is something that is missing from La Liga and if the opposition were to go in hard on Messi, I do not believe he would be as good as he is at the minute in terms of scoring so many goals! Alan
GUILLEM REPLIES: I can't believe this is a serious question. Messi is not just the best player in the world now, he's the best player in the world ever - and if he's not then he's very close to it. That means you can do it anywhere. On this tackling argument, what I'm seeing is the team at the top of the Premier League have conceded 29 goals this season and in seven out of the last 10 seasons the winners of the Premier League have conceded 29 goals or less at the end of the season. So what I'm seeing is not very good defences, so I'm not very sure where this strict defence in comparison to La Liga is. Messi would have no problem whatsoever adapting to any league in the world.
Hello Guillem, I am in the middle of reading your very good biography about Pep. In the book you write how Barcelona moved Eto'o, Bojan and Zlatan away from the club in order to allow Leo to grow as a player. My question is, do you think the club is in the process of doing the same with David Villa? I think although Pedro works very hard for the team, him nor Sanchez has the same quality as Villa. I'm also wondering if there is another reason Villa doesn't play much, is he becoming a bad influence like Ronaldinho, Deco and Motta were? Or is there any truth that Villa and Messi are not friends? I hear they are neighbours. Haha. I Look forward to your reply, and keep up the great punditry. Good luck to Espanyol for the remainder of the season, really hope they stay up after moving to the Cornela. Adios. Cari
GUILLEM REPLIES: Yes basically, what's happening with Villa is a little bit like what's happened to the other strikers. You have to submit logically to Messi and his talent and Pedro and Alexis adapt better because Villa, after all, is a striker. He wants to score, he's got the goal in his head and Messi prefers another kind of player next to him. But Villa is one of the loveliest guys in football, not a bad influence at all.
Hi Guillem. In the light of what happened to Henry, Ibrahimovic and now Villa once they moved to Barca, do you think top class strikers (Falcao, Neymar) might think twice about going to Barca because of the effect Messi might have on them? Abhay Tavaragiri
GUILLEM REPLIES: Well Neymar is coming to Barcelona; he wants to play in the best team in the world and he wants to play next to Messi. He accepts that everything goes around Messi and, as I say in my book, Messi was asked about signing Neymar and he agreed that it would be a good signing so it's all happy there. Falcao will not be signed by Barcelona because he would have to change his style at Barcelona and he doesn't suit that style.

Messi this messi that put him in premier league then we can have our say on him. He is quality in the slow league to be honest i would prefer ronaldo he has been in both leagues. I think messi is staying at barca because if he goes to the prem his rating will go down. If he played in the prem i would admit he is the best in the world but until then im saying ronaldo

there is no way messi would be as good in the prem league, 1 he doesn have xavi and iniesta to put it on a plate for him and 2 he isn strong enough to handle the physical style of the prem, if the chap bulked up he wouldn be as quick and his movement would slow down .. Guillem is just biased to la liga because he is spanish

I am surprised perez has capitualted or that he has been convinced by mourinho that he can brong him a CL trophy. I think the writing is on the wall and letting stink up spanish football is not doing anyone any favors. It seems like the players wont respond for him in spite of him and that will translate into a mess against united. Do you think with increasing pressure in the next month he could be fired before the CL? They were lucky to beat valencia last night!

Lodatz Datzlo (Tottenham Hotspur fan) says...
It's not a silly question at all, re: Messi's strike-rate in other leagues. While you can point the finger at Manchester Utd's current leaky defense, the fact remains that there is only 1 other team in the entire top half of the table who have conceded more. That is a marked difference from La Liga, where the gulf in stats between Barca and the rest is obvious and huge. Just face facts, Guillem: the defenses in Spain are pretty shoddy, and no, Messi could not score as many goals in England as he has in La Liga. That does not mean he wouldn't continue to be the best player in the world -- of course he would. But this blanket denial of the difference in quality between Spanish defenses and those found in other, tougher leagues is as boring as it is biased. The gulf between Real & Barca, and the rest of the league will continue to grow, until La Liga fixes its television rights problem. Relying upon Barca to showcase the awesomeness of Spanish football wears a little thin, my friend.

Hi Guillem. Im a massive fan of yours and I always get the refreshing feeling that you tell it as it is, which is rare for someone in your possition. First of all I was wondering if you know where falcao will be moving too and if any of the top players in la liga such as villa are looking at moving to the premier league. Also what are your thought on ronaldo returning to england or elsewere? Would be great to hear from you.

Messi is such a wonderful player. Can definitely play anywhere n the world... That's why he takes every World Cup he's been in by storm. Surely you can't deny he's a different player without his friends at Barca? If he is the best, let's judge him by standards that are fitting of the best and not call it a "technicality" If he doesn't win the World Cup before he retires, he'll be the best player - ever - never to win the world cup. Sure he may only have 3 World Player Of The Year titles...but at least Ronaldo (Brazil) can say that he's got two winner's medals.

Ken Peacock (Manchester United fan) says...
Guilleme good morning, first of all how can the real madrid fans turn on Jose Mourinho after he clearly was the reason for them winning la liga last season (other than ronaldo of course) and the sub standard performances this season are clearly down to player power, also I think you were to quick to dismiss alan's point about messi and tackling am I right in saying messi has never scored against chelsea in about 10 games and other than. The two goals he scored against man utd he has only ever scored against an extremely under par Arsenal, I accept messi is a great player but the best of all time please. First he has NEVER reproduced his Barca form for argentina who aren't exactly a poor team (messi aguero higuain di maria not a bad strikeforce) and its quite clear messi has never scored one of his trademark runs agianst an english team or an international team excluding the pointless friendlies with weakened sides something we see him do against normally the poor defensive teams in spain. Also the greatest of all is a little premature for a player who lost spanish league and the kudos of being the best players in the classico but still won the ballon'dor even though his team won nothing of significent worth, if pele maradona best cruyff van basten garrincha played in todays non contact football and i reiterate NON CONTACT football, I am sure they would have taken full advantage of the simulation that has sweeped the game, different rules, P.S. does diving annoy you?

Hi guillem, big fan of la liga & great coverage & insight you guys at sky provide so keep up the good work, now while barcelona are currently the best team in the world are they concerned behind the scenes about man city making moves to sign key personnel coaching staff & players given the fact even barca cant compete financially with man city & if pep ends up at city will barca directors be worried about any de-stabilising effects it could have if they were to make any approaches. hope to get a reply from you.

Hi Guillem do you think messi gets to much praise from media,fans,coaches than ronaldo does because he doesnt come across as cockey,selfish,and less of a team player than messi? If not do you think for ronaldo its best to leave la liga and go back home to manchester united to try and win the ballon d'or? Also do you think he will ever join manchester united again? Adios.

there is no doubt that messi is 1 of a kind, but my question to you guillem is: do you still believe that when the likes of iniesta, xavi, pedro, have finally moved on , that messi would still be the same player?? because i study the game with importance and often watch ronaldo too, and i know your not very much a ronaldo fan, but do you agree that to another level ronaldo is better? you do not have to be a great goalscorer to be known as a great player , its what you do overall, i know many would probably disagree but i stand firm on what i believe and that is ronaldo being much better in areas which i dont see messi doing the same in. eagerly waiting for your response to that. many thanks sam

Dave Wright (Liverpool fan) says...
The continual "is Messi good enough for EPL?" is quite a redundant question. We will never know because he wont ever come. And to be honest, we dont need him to. The EPL has more followers than La Liga statistically because there are more than 2 teams in it that could win. Say what you will about the money the Russians and the Arabs have brought their clubs with, it has made it a 4 horse race. We have had more teams in the CL final than Spain in the last 7 years and thats a story in itself. One winner from Spain in that time, 3 from England. I personally cant stand La Liga football but can admire the Barcelona team for the fact their team is made up of youth academy products. There is absolutely no statistics or evidence that could ever disprove the Premier League is a more interesting competition for me. If I were asked to predict the results in la liga against the EPL each weekend I know for a fact I would get more La Liga results correct.

Akhtar Rasool (Manchester United fan) says...
I dont agree with you about "Messi is not just the best player in the world now, he's the best player in the world ever". This is a wrong statement, messi has proved himself only at barca and no where else...Look at pele, maradona, zidane, ronaldo(brazil ) and ronaldo(portugal) they all have performed at different clubs and asslo at national level... Also Muller scored 85 goals and messi 90 odd...so it doesnt mean that messi is better than Muller. And Messi is nothing without xavi and ineista and the worls knows that

Hi Guillem, love reading your article every week! Just wondered if there was any truth in the reports in England continually linking David De Gea with a return to spain with either Real Madrid or Barcelona. Personally, i would hate to see him go as i think he could be one of the best goalkeepers, if not the best goalkeeper in the world within a few years. Do you think Manchester United would let him go?

Matthew Smith (Arsenal fan) says...
It's all very well making sweeping statements about Messi based on what he has achieved for Barcelona, but the fact remains he hasn't been tested in a league with a different philosophy to La Liga. Spanish football is as much about lifestyle, the weather, the glamour and the girls, as it is about what happens on the pitch, and I think adapting to the culture and climate of say Germany or England, would be the real test for Lionel. As for the being the greatest player ever, well George Best was just as good with a heavier ball on atrocious pitches, and don't even get me started on Pele, Cruyff and Maradona...

Why dont u just go and get hired by barcelona coz u are really just a puppet for them... everything u say is anti madrid, pro barca... anti mourinho pro gurdiola/tito... pro messi anti ronaldo. Get it right messi cant score 50 goals in the premier league!!! Ronaldo became the best player without having to move anyone in the team like messi is doing... let him stick to the wing and score 60 goals and then may be u can convince me but he is a good player and among the best of all time!!!

Hello all. PG Tonkamando
Yep, I agree. I have never been complimented on my Jicky outings. Wait... once at work. It was rather summery and about 6-7 hours into my wearing. It was the EdP and all I perceived was very faint occasional whiffs of dirty vanilla. The ladies 2-3 metres away said they smelled a very discreet yummy 'aura' and wanted to know what it was (I always say 'oh, something Guerlain' as it made no sense explaining them what it was). BUT I also remember once on the train... a woman joining at one station went straight to her friend opposite of me and meant 'duh, it's rather stinky in here!'. There was an 'ungroomed' man close to us, so they faulted him. I am pretty sure, I was the stinker.
We smell GREAT, Mike! That's all that matters.
Good morning, good smelling people.

Larimar and Mike, you two can sit near me anytime when you're wearing Jicky.
You kids are funny this morning.
Yesterday I wore En Avion, and while the early stages are rough for me, the dry down I reached later was worth the "work." It smells just the way the real world--the wise, mature, beautiful world--should smell. Shouldn't we be evolving toward finer and finer things?
Today it's Van Cleef & Arpels Gardenia Petale, which I was contemplating yesterday. It's pretty, flowery, syrupy, not so green as I might prefer, slightly tuberosey, has good projection, no rough points, very feminine, and it's not cheap-smelling except for its level of sweetness, which in and of itself is not a cheap quality, but I associate yummy sweetness with Bath and Body Works-type products.

Good afternoon, oh fragrant ones.
I was thinking about 31 Rue Cambon as my SotD, then I was thinking about getting a bottle, and it stayed only in my head. In fact, I applied Jimmy's Garner James Jupiter to Juno which blossoms in the heat and becomes introverted in the cold, and it is behaving all right on this skin today. Mr.T's doctor called -- he will be discharged this Thursday. I am having an afternoon off today and a day off tomorrow -- cleaning, Chinese from frozen and Joanne Harris' newest Peaches for Father Francis. She is a girl very much after my taste, almost like Evangeline.
I decided against Shalimar edc and went with vintage Miss Dior instead, inspired by Nairn's thread on the Fragrance Industry board. Miss Dior was once a signature scent for me - eons ago when a scent like this was considered an appropriate gift for a young girl. Young girls today would run screaming in horror. It smells so sweet and delicious to me. I enjoy revisiting the oldies when I can. Cannot remove nose from wrist.
Jon, I hope your mother enjoys her birthday. I don't see how she can't, spending it in your company. Enjoy!
Twolf, I didn't know she had a new one out. I must check out Peaches and Father Francis! Yay! I'm excited about that. And yay that Mr. T. is coming home soon! And yay for some down time for you! So yay, you!
Hey y'all -
I'm in Knowing for the afternoon.
Oh, PLady - Teint de Neige is a favorite of mine, too ...simply the most indulgent, luxurious and elegant powder perfume there is, imo, and definitely not baby powder. I used it exclusively as a bedtime scent for about five years, and I might have overdone it as I have a hard time wearing it outside of the bedroom now. I actually put it away for a while hoping to revisit it one day soon without that particular association lulling me to sleep, lol! It's just soooo beautiful and comforting and serene and peaceful ....ahhh. The body cream, btw, is as good as if not better than the edp ...actually, if I had to choose just one I'd go with the body cream. I'm usually a sucker for creams anyway, but this one is truly heavenly.
lilybelle - Oh, how I love Miss Dior, especially the old stuff! I think you smell vivacious and sexy and I'm pleased to be so near you.
Happy Birthday wishes to Jon's mom!

AMD's gDEBugger supports nVidia cards pretty well. There's no support for OpenCL kernel debugging, but everything else works fine.
With a low-latency kernel, I ran Doom 3 binary, extremely smooth at 72fps. Even with SSAA turned on etc. This was a few years ago, with 2x2.5ghz cpu, and an nvidia gtx280 card, I think.
And that is quite a difference from standard ubuntu kernels, where people play with choppy frames. I can`t believe they bother with that, or that their kernel engineers don`t try to provide the best experience.
Peace Be With You.
In practise framerate is lower, and suffers from jitter. If you ever tried the standard ubuntu kernel, vs a well-configured low-latency kernel (and I don`t know if ubuntu low-latency kernels are that, I compile my own), you will notice the difference in smoothness. Standard ubuntu kernel, even shows larger jitter (dropped frames) on 30fps video! As I have said earlier, synthetic non-vsynced benchmarks, say nothing about user experience. Instead ofcourse vsynced benchmarks, at 72hz refresh rate (which also is optimal, for reasons descriped earlier), giving some idea of scene complexity, sustained at 72fps, and the jitter associated with it, would be much more useful.
Peace Be With You.
You know what, I can boot into my linuxbox, and do a low-latency config on the latest kernel. I like to follow the developments on that anyway, and see if I can make a .deb of it, and everyone can install it, and compare.
Low os-jitter operating system, is a special interest of mine. I will do a post on http://www.paradoxuncreated.com for those interested.
Peace Be With You.
I tried to run the dante engine several times but failed all the time. I am using AMD FGLRX 12.6 legacy driver in KUbuntu 12.04. dhewm3 compile and runs fine. But as EGL is not present in fglrx, I could only compile it with OPENGL target. But even then it fails to run all the time. Did anybody got success running it on fglrx?
I'll second this. dhewm3 is doddle to build. I've tested it on Kubuntu and Gentoo on my laptop. However I just can't get my head around building Dante - let alone actually troubleshooting it!!
Perhaps I'll just get in touch with the developer on his blog...
I'm also using the beta Legacy Catalyst 12.6 driver (well on Gentoo - thinks it's 12.4 on Kubuntu 12.04) - but that's probably not much of an issue if I can't even figure out how to compile the Source!!
I've still to play through ROE - and would be nice to try it on an "improved" version of the ID Tech engine!!

Best place to live in oz for cyclingHi all- so where is the the best place for a cyclist in OZ? For me it couldn't be a big city- too much traffic. Not too hilly, quiet streets and off street tracks. Choice of places around the area to ride too and hopefully get a coffee! A cycling culture in the area would be nice too. I love warm climates, so it would have to be in the top half of Oz. Do we have a great cycling area in Oz that people love?
Re: Best place to live in oz for cyclingWell, I think the Sunshine Coast is just fantastic for cycling.
The QLD roads are good and reasonably quiet. You have great beach roads and hinterland riding all in easy riding distance. Lots of variety, and great weather. It does get quite hot in Summer though, which I struggle with.
Re: Best place to live in oz for cyclingExcept for the bus drivers apparently
Riding bikes in traffic - what seems dangerous is usually safe; what seems safe is often more dangerous.
Re: Best place to live in oz for cyclingInner northern suburbs of Melbourne seem to rate pretty highly, judging by the commuter traffic about.
Yep, generally flat roads
Yes there are several - but the quality can vary. Some great MTB trails along the Yarra close to the city as well.
Lots of that
Generally a strong cycling culture.
Generally pretty warm, but I would rather the crisp cool sunny days of autumn and winter. I can always dress to stay warm. Hot days are less fun when you can't get cool enough. If the city thing is too much there are some great country towns in Victoria that are very good for cycling. Bright comes to mind, or Bendigo for a bigger city with great cycling. Riding bikes in traffic - what seems dangerous is usually safe; what seems safe is often more dangerous.
Re: Best place to live in oz for cyclinglived in melbourne for six years so another big + for melbourne - except a bit partial to the warmer weather up here during winter
hopefully we can sort out the bus driver situation - My hubby always commuted in melbourne and the biggest fear he had down there were the tram tracks - We were shopping one morning and a poor guy got his front wheel caught up, fell, skidded and put a head sized dent in my car door - luckliy he was OK The rides around melbourne city always looked lovely - I did not ride bikes then so missed out. Great coffee, great food, great parks - now I miss Melbourne.....
Re: Best place to live in oz for cyclingCan't beat Adelaide... Choice of flat or hills, all from a comfortable distance from home... Long climbs, or long straight drags...
Drivers are wnakers but ya get that everywhere u guess...
Re: Best place to live in oz for cyclingIn NSW...Coonabarabran; Orange/Bathurst; Broken Hill; Tumut.
In Victoria...Sunraysia region; Horsham/The Grampians. In SA...northern Adelaide Hills; Melrose; Flinders Ranges. In QLD...Carnarvon Ranges (but there's nowhere much to live around there!); Mt Isa. In NT...Alice Springs In WA...Wyndham; Tom Price; Denmark; Esperance. ...and many thousands of other lovely communities besides Ours is not to reason why...merely to point and giggle
Re: Best place to live in oz for cyclingI've lived in 3 states so can say out of those (Vic, SA, QLD), I'd choose QLD everytime. I lived in the suburbs of the capital city in each
Melb - too flat. boring. have to go a long way out to find a climb, crap weather Adelaide - crap weather. good mix of roads. probably Australia's worst drivers Brisbane - good weather all year round. the wet season can be a challenge, but it's rare. decent mix of flats and climbs around. though decent climbs are further away.
Re: Best place to live in oz for cyclingCan't beat teh southern Gold Coast.
Weather, girls, food/coffee, endless quiet rods, tons of cyclists, any terrain you want, awesome back country MTB at both ends, blah blah blah blah blah !! You have officially become your parents.
Re: Best place to live in oz for cyclingI've always thought Adelaide would be cool, with those big hills just outside of the city.
Re: Best place to live in oz for cyclingCanberra or Launceston
Just by the number of elite riders that have originated from those towns. Sent from my not iDevice using Tapatalk 2
Re: Best place to live in oz for cyclingMelbourne - you can get hills and flat but in the end it comes down to coffee, best in Australia

Re: Best place to live in oz for cyclingI've lived and cycled in Perth, Sydney and Melbourne, and so far have found Melbourne the best for cycling. About a year ago, I moved to Ringwood North, about 20km east of the CBD, and it's an ideal location, because it's got plenty of hills (the reason I moved there), nice scenery, and it's also within cycling distance of Mt Donna Buang and Kinglake, 2 of my favourite cycling spots . I even rode to Lake Mountain return once from Ringwood North, although I admit that's a bit extreme.
Re: Best place to live in oz for cycling
too hot for you? I like Adelaide a lot. In the city, traffic is pretty much non-existent. Loads of amazing climbs within 20km of the CBD. Heck, you can go do a climb, cross the city then come back down to the coast all in one ride. I'd say it'd be hard to come close to what we've got. And for the commuter, unless you're in the hills it's pretty flat. Singlespeed-able almost anywhere for sure.
Re: Best place to live in oz for cycling
i don't mind the heat (it gets hot in brissy too you know). winter is unpleasant - i actually think it's colder than melbourne as you don't have an island between you and the southerly winds from the antarctic) 20 degrees+ in winter is much more pleasant (the mornings are cold in winter, but it's easier to deal with cold than it is wet and windy). EDIT: just looked at winter (1/6 to 31/08) and there is only 1 day I I went to work that I didn't commute by bike. I remember it too - it had rained all damn week and I was off site. made the excuse to catch the bus easy.
Re: Best place to live in oz for cycling
Adelaide has dryer winters than Melbourne though, right? I commute everyday of the week too - me and you are a rare breed! the only time I ever drive/train is if my bike is getting fixed or I need to take my car to the mechanic. Weather never plays a factor. On average there are two or three days a year where it is so wet that you pretty much drown. Apart from that, commuting is very manageable with a mudguard. I've only been riding a geared roadie and 'training' (read: enjoying challenging myself on a regular program) for a couple of months, so it will be interesting to see if I am able to ride as much through winter. Commuting in the rain one thing, climbing big hills (and descending them) may be another entirely. See how I go.
Re: Best place to live in oz for cycling
melbourne has more wet days but it consists of more drizzle than rain
Re: Best place to live in oz for cyclingReading comprehension 101 "for me it couldn't be a big city".
You have officially become your parents.
Re: Best place to live in oz for cyclingCanberra is pretty good with quiet roads (if you know where to look and pick your times) and warm climate during summer but quite cold in winter. A good strong cycle culture and as Skull said a lot of elite/pro riders have come from the area. Lots of coffee shops and lots of LBS too (about 13 for population of ~370K). Canberra's not too big; it takes me to ride from where I live in one of the northern most suburbs about 1 1/4 hours to ride to the southside. It is a bit hilly though, not too bad around town but when you go out (on southside) it gets quite hilly. Not so hilly on Northside though not flat.
Adelaide is good to ride in as well as I found out last January for TDU. Planning to go back again for TDU this January as well. Last edited by Ross on Wed Nov 28, 2012 12:33 pm, edited 1 time in total.
Re: Best place to live in oz for cycling
You clearly have a totally differ idea of what is good for cycling than myself and the majority of people! I am with Il Padrone, the inner north of Melbourne is the best place for cycling in Australia. Judging by the popularity of cycling many people agree. I would consider Horsham and the Grampians as not conducive at all for cycling. Of course this is all opinion, each to their own.
Re: Best place to live in oz for cycling
I agree! The whole area from Nerang to Springbrook down to Murwillumbah is amazing.. Looking forward to the xmas break and covering every road around there! shame about the drivers around Surfers and Coolangatta though.
Re: Best place to live in oz for cycling
and when it rains in Adelaide it only rains on your side of the road We have a term called "Adelaide weather" one minute sunshine, next minute thunderstorms
Re: Best place to live in oz for cyclingHobart - TAS, it's the nations best kept secret
when do we stop for coffee???
Re: Best place to live in oz for cycling
Hahaha. This time of the year is pretty bad for thunderstorms hey. Seriously though, over the years, I've always found Adelaide weather to be managable. It's not like Melbourne where you always need to carry a jumper.

You claimed two things here:
Given this "impartial view", I think is appropriate to give this kind of responses. And the numbers are not given by a Mono enthusiast (like myself), but by Java guys like an expert working on Twitter claims that JVM is huge on memory. Taking it from his slides:
- smallest object: 16 bytes
- (empty) array of bytes: 24 bytes
- class A {
byte x;
class B extends A {
byte y;
new A(): 24 bytes, new B(): 32 bytes
class C {
Object obj = new Object();
new C() = 40 bytes
- Guava MapMaker.makeMap() takes 2272 bytes!
MapMaker.concurrencyLevel(1).makeMap() - 352 bytes
- Corba like Thrift can also be heavy (Thrift is a Twitter project): "It adds between 52 and 72 bytes of overhead per object."
So, what remained for me to "prove" are the following:
- Mono is not just a poor's man CLR (or .Net). Because performance wise (as was quoted) gives the same optimizations (given you pick LLVM which is not default) as a C++ runtime
- C# is not MS centric (it runs just well on Mono and with not impaired functionality)
- C# it makes sense on some platforms which are not Windows (like Linux, or iOS or Android) maybe even more than Java. The reason: at the end is created a native binary that is executed so it can run faster than let's say... Java on some devices (like Android and/or iOS). I know about RoboVM which is pre-alpha (like my tool too) and it can compile some Java apps on iOS
What about C# vs Scala. I don't know. I cannot comment (too much), because as much as you say, it looks to me that Scala has some ups and downs. Scala looks to me a more OOP that tries to describe as much as possible functional features, when C# added them later (via Linq). Maybe is not a clean syntax, but feature wise on practical side it looks that in some parts C# is clearly superior:
- PInvoke and native platform integration working with any OS (also to falsify your statement that C# is not platform agnostic)
- dynamic object: you can do dynamic programming. The syntax is worse than Mirah, or IronRuby or IronPython, of course, but you can do it fairly natural and the generated code is fast too.
- async/await is more than an actors or task based programming, and is supported on Mono (which is the topic of this article), not because it offers something more (which it does), but because the whole states are written by the compiler. This is why is so good experience running Windows Phones or modern WPF applications

Eh, wouldn't that slow things down a lot?
Phoronix: GPU Drivers, Crocodile Petting Zoos & LLVMpipe
Zack Rusin has written a new blog post where he compares writing free software graphics drivers to running a crocodile petting zoo and wireless bungee jumping...
Eh, wouldn't that slow things down a lot?
One possible interpretation of Zack's post is that he is proposing to replace TGSI with LLVM IR as the common language of the driver stack. Drivers could either go directly from LLVM IR to GPU code or could use an existing IR as an intermediate step (eg TGSI, Mesa IR, or something like the "il" we use in the proprietary stack).
Just a guess, but if that was the case it wouldn't necessarily slow things down but it might make the shader compiler portion of the driver larger and more complex. Hard to say.
Good thing I haven't gotten around to studying Gallium3D drivers yet.
It's also possible that Zack is talking about keeping TGSI and going back to using LLVM as part of the standard GPU shader compiler, in which case we would have :
GLSL => TGSI => LLVM IR => GPU shader code
or, if you're into compute :
OpenCL C99 => LLVM IR => TGSI => LLVM IR => GPU shader code
I guess I should stop looking through Evergreen Mesa code and go read some Gallium3D code, but I'd kinda like to get Evergreen support out first.
The thing I don't really understand is how being able to run shaders is going to help without the rest of the hardware driver. On ATI graphics at least you need to set up things like the colour buffer to handle writeback of the results, and once you do that you might as well set up the depth buffer and texture samplers...
... and at that point you've pretty much got a GL driver.
Still, I think the idea is good... looking for the smallest possible bit of porting required to get a modern stack running on new hardware, then add featuers from there. I gues Zack is thinking about running texture processing in shader code, which is an interesting idea if you can get the addressing set up right. It wouldn't be as fast as dedicated hardware but would let you get something running and useable faster.

Thanks to everyone who attended our UFO program on August 2. I had to jump on a number of other tasks immediately following the program, so, I'm just now getting around to looking at the evaluations. I can see that there's a lot of interest in this topic and that our speaker did a great job, so we'll be having him back sometime next year.
I talked to him just as he was leaving and he indicated that the presentation he gave was UFOs 101—so when he returns he will be giving us UFOs 102, meaning he'll be taking us deeper into the subject matter and providing us with more advanced information. I'm going to let him know the kinds of info you indicated on your evals you're specifically interested in.
We're sorry about the audio problem in the second half of the program. We've had a lot of technically minded people look at the problem and we think we have it figured out, so it won't be a problem next time around.
The display of Books on UFOs has been taken down but there are still some of the bibliographies that I created in the plastic holders on the end cap near the Dewey 100s and 200s, so if you didn't get one, come in and pick one up. I'm going to put the illustration from the front cover in this post, so you'll know what to look for.
Mr. Wertman's bibliography can be viewed on the Cleveland Ufology website, www.clevelandufo.com. Items on my list are all owned by our library and we do own many of the items Mr. Wertman recommends. If you're interested in reading any items on Mr. Wertman's list that we don't own, please ask a staff member about obtaining it for you from another library.
Those of you who made suggestions regarding other kinds of programs, rest assured I'm forwarding your input to the appropriate staff members.
Thanks again for attending, I'll be back soon with updates on other EDGY topics.

Must Watch
Kendra Wilkinson suffers mild injuries after reported getting in a car accident.
Now that Bruce Jenner's interview with ABC's Diane Sawyer has aired, other members of the Jenner and Kardashian family are starting to weigh in. Kim Kardashian was on Today and talked about how they're handling Bruce's transition. Kardashian told Matt Lauer, "I think there still is an adjustment and there is family therapy and we're really close. I see reports that say, you know, 'This one doesn't support him and this one's over here and my mom feels this way.' It's all really so made up. We all really support him. Is it a hard adjustment? Yes." When Matt Lauer asked for an example of something Bruce's family has had to adjust to, Kardashian replied, "I mean even just the discussion, we have been talking to people from, you know, the GLAAD organization, and just different organizations on what do we call him? Do we say her or him? How do we be respectful?...Until that transition is done, we've learned that you do refer to him as 'him.'" Kardashian then gave insight on how Bruce informed the family of the news, saying "There were lots of family meetings...There is hundreds of family meetings. We still have them. Say what you want about us, but we work out everything as a family and we have the best communication…" Lauer pointed out that Jenner is now going to be the subject of quite a bit of attention. Kardashian thinks Bruce is prepared for it, "I think he is ready for the challenge and ready to help other people's lives that might be going through the same things that he's going through. And that's something that he's really proud of and something that he is really ready to take on. And I'm really proud of him for that."

Williams hopes to keep Angels rolling on road trip
Brewers tab Estrada, who's been solid since returning from the DL
The Angels shut out the Brewers in Friday's Interleague series opener, and they'll have a pitcher familiar with hitting on the mound for Saturday's game. Veteran Jerome Williams will be matched against Milwaukee's Marco Estrada, and Williams said that getting a chance to hit makes him feel more at home.
"It never really bothered me, because I was brought up in the National League and I knew how to hit," said Williams, drafted and developed by the San Francisco Giants. "I had to learn how to hit. So from Double-A on, I was trying to be a part of the game, putting down bunts and stuff, trying to go deep in the game. If you don't know to handle a bat in the National League, you're not going to get deep in the game. It's good to go out there and try to be perfect that so you can be out there for a long time."
The Angels have won six of their last seven games, and Williams returns to the rotation after a three-inning relief stint on Wednesday. The right-hander pitched into the seventh inning of his last start, but he hasn't earned a victory since June 12 and he has an 5.38 ERA in 19 starts.
Estrada will make his fifth start since returning from a hamstring injury that cost him more than two months of the year. Estrada has given up 17 home runs in 16 starts, and he has just 21 walks all season.
The Angels took control of the series opener with a four-run seventh inning, and ace Jered Weaver gave Los Angeles six shutout innings, extending Angels pitchers' scoreless streak to 22 innings. The Angels are seeking their third consecutive series win, but they're 30-35 on the road. Sixteen of their remaining 29 games are away from home.
The Brewers are 30-36 at home this season, and they'll play host to the playoff-contending Pirates after the Angels leave town. Milwaukee is 3-3 in its last six games and 5-6 over the last 11 games.
Angels: Hamilton sits with sore shoulder
Josh Hamilton sat Friday nursing a sore shoulder. He spent the Angels' last series against the Rays filling the designated hitter role, because it especially bothers him when he's throwing.
Hamilton reported that the shoulder was "still sore" prior to Friday's game. He was not available to pinch-hit during the contest, but manager Mike Scioscia hopes to slot him into Saturday's lineup.
Brewers: Henderson closing it down
Jim Henderson has converted 12 straight save opportunities for the Brewers, breaking a team record set by Trevor Hoffman in the 2009 season. Henderson has given up three home runs in 50 games, and he's struck out 57 batters while allowing just 33 hits and 21 walks.
With John Axford traded to the Cardinals for a player to be named later on Friday, the closer role is Henderson's to lose.
"Henderson has done a great job for us," Brewers manager Ron Roenicke said. "Whether he continues to be that closer depends on what he does. What he's doing right now, he's going to continue to close. We had [Francisco Rodriguez] in here earlier, and when Henderson got hurt, Frankie kind of jumped into that spot. But Henderson, I put him right back in, and he's done really well."
Worth noting
• In his four starts since returning from the DL, Estrada is 2-0 with a 1.88 ERA and a .169 opponents' batting average.
• The Angels have scored 28 runs and allowed 11 over their last seven games.

A legendary 'Enigma' ciphering machine from 1938, which influenced WWII dramatically, was the top lot at Auction Team Breker's May 26 sale of vintage science, technology and toys.
So complex are the Enigma's 22 billion possible combinations, an original prospectus claimed, that it would take one man working continuously day and night, and trying a different cipher-key every minute, 42,000 years to exhaust all the possibilities. However, it took a private buyer just a few minutes to bid the machine's final sale price to $101,450, more than 10 times the published reserve. Read More +

Cultural acuity and language proficiency can be a force multiplier for troops immersed in a foreign environment. Not many are more educated on this fact than the 3rd Infantry Division command group, who have only a month until their next deployment to Iraq. "Foreign language training is absolutely critical so all of our Soldiers understand the cultural nuances while interacting with leadership in Iraq and Afghanistan, and also with the general population (in order) to have that common understanding," said Brig. Gen. Thomas Vandal, 3rd Inf. Div. Deputy Commanding General for Support.In mid August, DLIFLC sent several native Iraqi teachers to Fort Stewart, Ga. to teach cultural awareness and survival language skills to the 3rd Inf. Div. troops who are preparing for deployment. These Mobile Training Teams have been blanketing the Armed Forces since 2005 with cultural awareness and survival language training. "If you can understand the basic writings and scribbling on the walls, it could be more than just scribbling. It could mean anything, like an [insurgent] meeting or an IED emplacement, said Command Sgt. Major Gerardus Wykoff, who is the Military Intelligence Corps senior enlisted authority. More than 66,000 deploying troops have received training through the DLIFLC language and culture familiarization MTT program. In most cases, units infer no cost by scheduling and receiving these training packages.With only a month until the 3rd Infantry Division begins another 12-month tour in Iraq, commanders are aware of the capability that has been added to their division."The 3rd Inf. Div. has sent about 300 Soldiers through the language training course. We believe that this is absolutely critical for them to continue to develop their cultural understanding and language skills in order to further interact with the local population, as well as some of the various key leader engagements that they will interact in," said Vandal.According to one student in the latest language and culture class who did not want to be named, this training will give him an advantage over previous deployments, which he felt that he was missing out on a lot of vital information that could have been handy."It is important to have basic language skills. If you have a basic understanding of what folks are saying out there, you can save lives...You can listen and see if insurgent activity is going on in a town. You can save lives by having this information," said Wykoff.

The Rawtarian's Thoughts
By The RawtarianDon't believe me that this could taste as good as old-school SAD (standard American diet) ranch? Just try it. I dare ya :)
Raw ranch dressing is another one of those things that I cannot believe it's possible to replicate raw. But, hallelujah, it is possible.
There is nothing like a nice fresh carrot dipped in raw ranch dressing, no?
And I have even had the pleasure of dipping my raw vegan pizza in raw ranch dressing. "Cue heavenly harp sound...."
So here's my favourite raw ranch dressing recipe for you... I use it basically like a normal salad dressing or dip. I usually make one batch and serve it as a vegetable dip, salad dressing and maybe even on a few more exciting things, like in a raw vegan BLT sandwich or dip raw pizza in it if I am feeling particularly daring.
Of course, you also know that the best vegetables to dip in raw ranch dressing are carrots and broccolli, right?

I love this recipe too!! I've made it about 5 times now! My husband and I grew up on ranch dressing. We smeared it on everything! Now that we are dairy and gluten free we were missing it and didn't even know it. Tonight I made it to put on kale that I'll be dehydrating. I'm curious to see how it turns out. Thanks so much!

EileenC's Review
Raw ranch dressing recipe
OMG, I just made this, chilled it, and dipped some cauliflower in it to taste.....A-MAZING!!!!! It tastes so creamy and decadent, I'm in heaven! I assumed the cashews were to be soaked so I did that and the dressing came out a bit thinner than yours looks in the photo but it's fine because I wanted it to lightly toss it with my salad anyway. Even so, after chilling it, it coated the cauliflower beautifully. This will be my go-to creamy dressing and crudite dip from now on!! Thank you!!! x
Kim's Review
Raw ranch dressing recipe
This ranch is OK, but it's definitely not SAD. It's way too sweet.I didn't understand the honey. My son liked it though and that's all that matters.
Use a date or two to taste add a little water for processing! it is raw! and it is just sweet enough! Good luck!
Could I use fresh dill? For the first time I only have fresh not dried.
Leeanne's Review
Raw ranch dressing recipe
Oh, yummy yum. This is my first venture into making dressings and it turned out oh so good. Thank you so much.
Hi, I just found your site, as I'm contemplating going raw and this dressing sounds wonderful, by the way, but as I do everything with gusto, I wanted to ask someone who has been raw for quite some time, is maple syrup really considered raw? I'm from Vermont, the maple syrup state and my family make and sell our pure maple syrup and although it's pure natural sap from the trees, no additives, etc, it is cooked, ie boiled...therefore wouldn't this be a no no for a raw diet? Before reworking what can go in my cupboard and fridge, I just thought I'd check simply because I know how it's made where I understand many wouldn't. Thanks so much for any insight you can share and I'm making this ranch dressing tonight for the first time and I just can't wait! Thank you so much for the inspiration!
Hi Sassy!
Congrats on doing everything with gusto. I am the same :)
Sweeteners are a controversial topic in the raw world - many people use agave nectar, maple syrup or honey interchangeably depending on preference.
Agave nectar - highly refined, high GI,
Unpasteurized honey - not vegan (comes from bees)
Maple syrup - heated
Choose your preferred option :) I usually use local raw unpasteurized honey, but it isn't vegan, but I do know where my honey comes from!
Again raw dates they are all raw as far as I know. anyway a date or two and a little water for processing. and use it if you want 100% raw! have fun, and good luck on your journey into raw Vegan!
