Joke of the day
Every man needs a go-to joke.
Skydiving A redneck wanted to learn how to skydive, so he got an instructor and started taking lessons. The instructor told the redneck to jump out of the plane and pull his ripcord. The instructor then explained that he himself would jump out right behind him so that they would go down together. The redneck understood and was ready. The time came for the redneck to jump out of the airplane. The instructor reminded the redneck that he would be right behind him. The redneck proceeded to jump from the plane, and after being in the air for a few seconds he pulled the ripcord. The instructor followed by jumping from the plane. The instructor pulled his ripcord, but the parachute did not open. The instructor, frantically trying to get his parachute open, darted past the redneck. The redneck, seeing this, yelled as he undid the straps to his parachute, "So you wanna race, eh?"
Hillbilly Newlyweds A newly married hillbilly couple decided they wanted children, but didn't know how to go about it. Questions and conversations with friends and relatives proved no help, until a neighbor said they should go to town and ask the big-city doctor. The doctor let them look at a children's book about where babies come from, but to no avail. He tried his own explanation, but was met with blank stares. Exasperated, the doctor took them to his private office and showed them a porno movie. This was also useless. Angrily, he ordered the girl to strip, told the man to watch, and had sex with her on the couch. "Now do you understand?" he asked. "I just have one question: how many times a week do I have to bring her in for this?"
Guess Who A guy walks into a post office one day and sees a middle-aged, balding man standing at the counter methodically placing "Love" stamps on bright pink envelopes with hearts all over them. He then takes out a perfume bottle and starts spraying the scent all over them. His curiosity getting the better of him, he approaches the balding man and asks him what he's doing. The man says, "I'm sending out 1,000 Valentine cards signed, 'Guess who?'" "But why?" asks the man. "I'm a divorce lawyer," the man replies.
Drunken Old Guy A drunken old guy stumbles into the front door of a bar, walks up to the bartender and says, "Give me a shot of tequila, damn." The bartender looks at him and tells him that he has had enough. So the old guy curses the bartender out and walks out the front door. A few minutes later, the same guy comes in through the side door and stumbles up to the bar and demands a shot of tequila. The bartender looks at him in disbelief and refuses to serve him again. The old guy curses him out again and storms out. A few minutes later, the same old guy stumbles in through the back door and before he could say a word, the bartender says, "Listen, I told you already twice that I'm not going to serve you, so get out of my bar, you drunken bastard." The old guy looks at the bartender and says, "Damn, how many bars do you work at?"
Trial Lawyer An independent woman started her own business. She was shrewd and diligent, so business kept coming in. Pretty soon she realized that she needed an in-house counsel, and so she began interviewing young lawyers. "As I'm sure you can understand," she started off with one of the first applicants, "in a business like this, our personal integrity must be beyond question." She leaned forward. "Mr. Peterson, are you an 'honest' lawyer?" "Honest?" replied the job prospect. "Let me tell you something about honest. Why, I'm so honest that my dad lent me $15,000 for my education and I paid back every penny the minute I tried my very first case." "Impressive. And what sort of case was that?" "My dad sued me for the money."
Air Lingus A mother and her young son were flying Air Lingus. The son, who had been looking out the plane's window, turned to his mother and said, "Mom, if big dogs have baby dogs and big cats have baby cats, why don't big planes have baby planes?" Stumped, the mother suggested to her son that he ask the stewardess. The boy promptly got out of his seat and wandered back to the service area. "Excuse me," the boy said to the stewardess. "If big dogs have baby dogs and big cats have baby cats, why don't big planes have baby planes?" "Did your mother tell you to ask me that?" "Yes," he said, nodding his head. The stewardess whispered in the boy's ear, "Tell your mother it's because Air Lingus always pulls out on time."

*** Work in progress ***
This page gives a brief outline of the major control flows in the execution of a garbage collector in MMTk. For simplicity, we focus on the MarkSweep collector, although much of the discussion will be relevant to other collectors.
This page assumes you have a basic knowledge of garbage collection, for those that don't, please see one of the standard texts such as The Garbage Collection Handbook.
Structure of a Plan
An MMTk Plan is required to provide 5 classes. They are required to have consistent names which start with the same name and have a suffix that indicates which class it inherits from. in the case of the MarkSweep plan, the name is "MS".
- MS - this is a singleton class that is a subclass of
. This class encapsulates data structures that are shared among multiple threads. - MSMutator - subclass of org.mmtk.plan.MutatorContext. This class encapsulates data structures that are local to a single mutator thread. In the case of Jikes RVM, a Thread is actually a subclass of this class for efficiency reasons.
- MSCollector - subclass of org.mmtk.plan.CollectorContext. This provides thread-local data structures specific to a garbage collector thread.
- MSConstraints - subclass of org.mmtk.plan.PlanConstraints. This provides configuration information that the host virtual machine might need. It is separated out from the Plan class in order to prevent circular class loading dependencies.
- MSTraceLocal - subclass of org.mmtk.plan.TraceLocal. This provides thread-local data structures specific to a particular way of traversing the heap. In a simple collector like MarkSweep, there is only one of these classes, but in more complex collectors there may be several. For example, in a generational collector, there will be one TraceLocal class for a nursery collection, and another for a full-heap collection.
class, and it is in the policy class that the mechanics of a particular mechanism (like mark-sweep) is implemented. The task of a Plan is to create the policy (Space) objects that manage the heap, and to integrate them into the MMTk framework. Policies
, and a particular instance of a policy is known generically as a space. The static initializer of a Plan and its subclasses define the spaces that make up an MMTk plan.
Code Block | ||||
| ||||
public static final MarkSweepSpace msSpace = new MarkSweepSpace("ms", VMRequest.create()); public static final int MARK_SWEEP = msSpace.getDescriptor(); |
In this code fragment, we see the MS plan defined. Note that we generally also define a static final space descriptor. This is an optimization that allows some rapid operations on spaces.
A Space
is a global object, shared among multiple mutator threads. Each policy will also have one or more thread-local classes which provide unsynchronized allocation. These classes are subclasses of org.mmtk.utility.alloc.Allocator
, and in the case of MarkSweep, it is called MarkSweepLocal
. Instances of MarkSweepLocal
are created as part of a mutator context, like this
Code Block | ||||
| ||||
protected MarkSweepLocal ms = new MarkSweepLocal(MS.msSpace); |
The design pattern is that the local Allocator will allocate space from a thread-local buffer, and when that is exhausted it will allocate a new buffer from the global Space, performing appropriate locking. The constructor of the MarkSweepLocal specifies the space from which the allocator will allocate global memory.
MMTk provides two methods for allocating an object. These are provided by the MSMutator class, to give each plan the opportunity to use fast, unsynchronized thread-local allocation before falling back to a slower synchronized slow-path.
The version implemented in MarkSweep looks like this:
Code Block | ||||
| ||||
public Address alloc(int bytes, int align, int offset, int allocator, int site) { if (allocator == MS.ALLOC_DEFAULT) { return ms.alloc(bytes, align, offset); } return super.alloc(bytes, align, offset, allocator, site); } |
The basic structure of this method is common to all MMTk plans. First they decide whether the operation applies to this level of abstraction (if (allocator == MS.ALLOC_DEFAULT)), and if so, delegate to the appropriate place, otherwise pass it up the chain to the super-class. In the case of MarkSweep, MSMutator delegates the allocation to its thread-local MarkSweepLocal object ms
The alloc
method of MarkSweepLocal
is inherited from SegregatedFreeListLocal
(mark-sweep is not the only way of managing free-list allocation), and looks like this
Code Block | ||||||
| ||||||
public final Address alloc(int bytes, int align, int offset) { int sizeClass = getSizeClass(bytes); Address cell = freeList.get(sizeClass); if (!cell.isZero()) { freeList.set(sizeClass, cell.loadAddress()); /* Clear the free list link */ cell.store(Address.zero()); return cell; } return allocSlow(bytes, align, offset); } |
This is a standard pattern for thread-local allocation: first we look in the thread-local space (line 3), and if successful return the result (lines 4-8). If unsuccessful, we request space from the global policy via the method Allocator.allocSlow
. This is the common interface that all Allocators use to request space from the global policy. This will eventually call the allocator-specific allocSlowOnce
method. The workings of the allocSlowOnce method are very policy-specific, so not appropriate to look at at this stage, but eventually all policies will attempt to acquire fresh virtual memory via the Space.acquire
is the only correct way for a policy to allocate new virtual memory for its own use.
Code Block | ||||||
| ||||||
public final Address acquire(int pages) { pr.reservePages(pages); /* Poll, either fixing budget or requiring GC */ if (VM.activePlan.global().poll(false, this)) { VM.collection.blockForGC(); return Address.zero(); // GC required, return failure } /* Page budget is ok, try to acquire virtual memory */ Address rtn = pr.getNewPages(pagesReserved, pages, zeroed); if (rtn.isZero()) { /* Failed, so force a GC */ boolean gcPerformed = VM.activePlan.global().poll(true, this); VM.collection.blockForGC(); return Address.zero(); } return rtn; } |
The logic of space.acquire is:
- First, poll the plan to find out whether the heap is full. This logic is performed by the plan, because it has knowledge of copy reserves etc.
- The 'poll' method will request a GC if required, and return
if it has done so. - Then we wait for GC if required. 'poll' can't wait, because it is called in circumstances that aren't GC safe.
- If Plan.poll(...) returns false (we are within the allowed heap size), we call pr.getNewPages to allocate virtual memory. At this stage we can find that we have run out of virtual memory, and if so, we force a GC
- If a GC is performed, we return Address.zero(), rather than retrying locally. In many plans, the next allocation request will be satisfied by re-using space in a page that already belongs to a policy, so the post-GC allocation must be performed further up in the call stack. The retry logic is handled in
Code Block | ||||
| ||||
public final Address allocSlowInline(int bytes, int alignment, int offset) { boolean emergencyCollection = false; while (true) { Address result = allocSlowOnce(bytes, alignment, offset); if (!result.isZero()) { return result; } if (emergencyCollection) { VM.collection.outOfMemory(); } emergencyCollection = Plan.isEmergencyCollection(); } } |
This code fragment shows the retry logic in the allocator. We try allocating using allocSlowOnce
, which may recycle partially-used blocks and eventually call Space.acquire
. If a GC occurred, we try again. Eventually the plan will request an emergency collection which will (for example) cause soft references to be dropped. If this fails we throw an OutOfMemoryError
In a stop-the-world garbage collector like MarkSweep, the mutator threads run until memory is exhausted, then all mutator threads are suspended, the collector threads are activated, and they perform a garbage collection. After the GC is complete, the collector threads are suspended and the mutator threads resume. MMTk also has some support for concurrent collectors, in which one or more collector threads can be scheduled to run alongside the mutator, either exclusively or in addition to (hopefully briefer) stop-the-world phases.
Thread scheduling in MMTk is handled by a GC controller thread, implemented in the singleton class org.mmtk.plan.ControllerCollectorContext
held in the static field Plan.controlCollectorContext
. Whenever a collection is initiated, it is done by calling methods on this object.
As mentioned above, every attempt to allocate fresh virtual memory calls the current plan's poll(...)
method. This initiates a GC by calling controlCollectorContext.request()
, which in a stop-the-world collector like MarkSweep pauses the mutator threads and then wakes the collector threads. The main loop of the garbage collector is simply the run()
method of ParallelCollector
, shown below.
Code Block | ||||
| ||||
public void run() { while(true) { park(); collect(); } } |
The collect()
method is specific to the type of collector, and in StopTheWorldCollector
it looks like this
Code Block | ||||
| ||||
public void collect() { Phase.beginNewPhaseStack(Phase.scheduleComplex(global().collection)); } |
Collector Phases
Every garbage collection consists of a series of steps. Each step is either executed once (e.g. updating the mark state before marking the heap), or in parallel on all available collector threads (e.g. the parallel mark phase). The actual work of a step is done by the collectionPhase method of the global, collector or mutator class of a plan.
In early versions of MMTk, the main collection method was a template method, calling individual methods for each phase of the collection. As the number of collectors in MMTk grew, this became unwieldy and has been replaced with a configurable mechanism of phases.
The class org.mmtk.plan.Simple
defines the basic structure of most of MMTk's garbage collectors. First it defines the phases themselves,
Code Block | ||||
| ||||
public static final short SET_COLLECTION_KIND = Phase.createSimple("set-collection-kind", null); public static final short INITIATE = Phase.createSimple("initiate", null); public static final short PREPARE = Phase.createSimple("prepare"); ... |
Each phase of the collection is represented by a 16-bit integer, an index into a table of Phase objects. Simple phases are scheduled, and combined into sequences, or complex phases.
Code Block | ||||
| ||||
/** Ensure stacks are ready to be scanned */ protected static final short prepareStacks = Phase.createComplex("prepare-stacks", null, Phase.scheduleMutator (PREPARE_STACKS), Phase.scheduleGlobal (PREPARE_STACKS)); |
A simple phase can be scheduled in one of 4 ways:
- Global. One collector thread is chosen to run the collectionPhase method of the global Plan object.
- Collector. All collector threads run collectionPhase of the plan's CollectorContext object(s).
- Mutator. The collector threads run in parallel and iterate over the available MutatorContext objects (ie the mutator threads), and run the mutator's collectionPhase method. Note that the collector threads are performing work on a per-mutator basis, because in general the mutator threads are stopped at this point.
- Concurrent. The controller is requested to start a concurrent collectcor thread.
Between every phase of a collection, the collector threads rendezvous at a synchronization barrier. The actual execution of a collector's phases is done in the method Phase.processPhaseStack. This method handles resuming a concurrent collection as well as running a full stop-the-world collection.
The actual work of a collection phase is done (as mentioned above) in the collectionPhase method of the major Plan classes.
Code Block | ||||
| ||||
@Inline @Override public void collectionPhase(short phaseId) { if (phaseId == PREPARE) { super.collectionPhase(phaseId); msTrace.prepare(); msSpace.prepare(true); return; } if (phaseId == CLOSURE) { msTrace.prepare(); return; } if (phaseId == RELEASE) { msTrace.release(); msSpace.release(); super.collectionPhase(phaseId); return; } super.collectionPhase(phaseId); } |
This excerpt shows how the global MS plan implements collectionPhase, illustrating the key phases of a simple stop-the-world collector. The prepare phase performs tasks such as changing the mark state, the closure phase performs a transifive closure over the heap (the mark phase of a mark-sweep algorithm) and the release phase performs any post-collection steps. Where possible, a plan is structured so that each layer of inheritance deals only with the objects it creates, i.e. the MS class operates on the msSpace and delegates work on all other spaces to the super-class where they are defined. By convention the PREPARE phase is performed outside-in (super-class preparation first) and RELEASE is done inside-out (local first, super-class second).
Tracing the heap
The main operation of a tracing collector is the transitive closure operation where all (or a subset) of the object graph is visited. Some collectors such as generational collectors perform these operations in more than one way, e.g. a nursery collection in a generational collector does not trace through pointers into the mature space, while a full-heap collection does. All MMTk collectors are designed to run using several parallel threads, using data structures that have unsynchronized thread-local and synchronized global components in the same way as MMTk's policy classes.
MMTk's trace operation uses the following terminology:
- An edge is a reference in the heap from one reference field to the object (or node) it points to.
- Tracing an object is the policy-defined operation performed by the collector on an object. In a mark-sweep policy this means setting the mark state of the object. In a copying policy this means moving the object to its new location.
- Scanning ...
Each distinct transitive closure operation is defined as a subclass of TraceLocal. The closure is performed in the collectionPhase method of the plan-specific CollectorContext class
Code Block | ||||
| ||||
public void collectionPhase(short phaseId, boolean primary) { ... if (phaseId == MS.CLOSURE) { fullTrace.completeTrace(); return; } ... } |
The initial starting point for the closure is computed by the STACK_ROOTS and ROOTS phases, which add root locations to a buffer by calling TraceLocal.reportDelayedRootEdge. The closure operation proceeds by invoking traceObiect on each root location (in method processRootEdge), and then invoking scanObject on each heap object encountered. Note that the CLOSURE operation is performed multiple times in each GC, due to processing of reference types.

Great game. I still play it. Same mechanics as CS 1.6 but with added bots and optional higher resolution models and touched up maps. The old, untouched maps are there as well. The single point of suckage for this game was the addition of the riot shield. Whoever's responsible for that must have been on crack >.<
Waiting for CS:GO. Already got it for Windows, but rebooting always sucks. I want GO on Linux dammit! Now! :-)

- Lightweight
- Ventilation
- Cushioning
- Struggled with Fit
Updating the Tempaia II line with CC (ClimaCool) technology, this new version comes in a lightweight, breathable package. Feminine in style, these shoes are cosmetically perfect for the sunny tennis season upon us, and they offered fast, lightweight performance for our playtest team. Impressively, these high performing shoes stood up well when our playtesters spent several hours grinding away on the court in them. While proving to be a fantastic update in terms of breathability and weight, all of our playtesters struggled a bit with this shoe running slightly big (wide and long). This shoe fits longer than the non CC version of the Tempaia, and you should consider sizing down a half size. With that aside, the CC Tempaia II is a quick and fairly durable shoe with a feather-light feel on the court.
Comfort - Score: 3.9
When it came to comfort, all of our playtesters found that with a small break-in period (just a couple hours on the court) these shoes formed to their feet and the comfort and cushioning became one of their favorite features. Brittany said, "I found these shoes needed a very small break-in period (about 1-2 hours) to adapt to my feet, but after that I found these shoes to be very comfortable. I would say the cushioning was more supportive than pillowy, which I enjoyed. I thought there was plenty of cushioning in the heel to absorb any shock that might occur when playing tennis."
Carol sang the praises of the comfort in this shoe, "Great comfort from this new adidas shoe. The cushioning provided, especially around the heel and lower part of the ankle, is some of the best I have experienced during a playtest. I did experience some rubbing in the toe box, but I think this was due to the shoe being a little too big for me."
Karly enjoyed the comfort, saying, "The cushioning did the job. It didn't offer that pillowy, plush feeling, but there was enough padding throughout the shoes to keep my feet comfortable. And as far as the break-in period, any bit of stiffness that I experienced quickly disappeared and the shoes felt completely broken-in after the first hit, which was great."
Rounding out the sentiments of the playtest team in the comfort area was Michelle, "The cushioning was good in these Tempaia IIs, definitely not bad at all. The toe box was a bit big for me, which caused a bit of discomfort. I developed some blisters on the bottom of my big toes because my feet were sliding around. The heel cushioning was great, the tongue of this shoe was comfortable and I felt good cushioning throughout the shoe."
Ventilation - Score: 4.4
We found the ventilation to be one of the best features of the CC Tempaia II. Karly said, "I think adidas did a great job making this model a much more ventilated shoe than the synthetic version of the Tempaia II. I really enjoyed playing in that synthetic version, with my biggest complaint being that the shoe lacked in ventilation. You can imagine how excited I was to try this version of the shoe with its mesh upper. I just wish this version didn't fit so wide -- I had to wear two pairs of socks most of the time so that the shoes would fit better, which defeated the purpose of making this a more breathable shoe. However, when I tried the shoes with just one pair of socks, I thought the breathability was great."
"ClimaCool truly lives up to its name with this shoe," said Brittany. "One of my biggest complaints with the non-CC version of this shoe was the ventilation. This shoe is well ventilated from every angle. The mesh upper allows plenty of air circulation to keep my feet cool. The tongue of the shoe is thin and also has mesh holes for even more ventilation. I would play tennis at lunch, wear them for the rest of the work day and then go workout in them after work, and my feet would stay cool and dry."
Michelle didn't wear the previous version of the Tempaia, but agreed that the ClimaCool system in this shoe was superb, saying, "I thought this shoe was really breathable. The mesh that surrounds the shoe is great for air flow. I never had any issues with my feet overheating. Actually, they always felt cool."
Carol loved the unparalleled ventilation from this shoe. She said, "This was the standout quality for me. My foot never felt overheated. My feet were fresh regardless of how long I was playing or the temperature during play. My feet never felt as if they were in a shoe at all. I was really impressed with the performance in this area."
Arch Support - Score: 3.8
Michelle found the arch support for this shoe to be just right for her slightly higher arch, saying, "I tend to have a medium to high arch, and I felt decent support in the arch. Despite the shoe running a little big, the arch support was consistently there and was just right for my foot."
Carol disagreed, saying, "I like a more medium arch in my tennis shoes, so I felt that this was a little low for my comfort level on the court. It didn't impact my play or movement, but it didn't match up with my personal preference in a shoe."
Karly had no issues in the arch area, and said, "I thought the arch was a little lower than standard, but I didn't have any issues."
Adding her two cents about the arch of this shoe was Brittany, who offered, "I'm normally not too picky with arch support because I have a medium arch that can adapt pretty easily. While the arch wasn't painful or causing any stress, for some reason it didn't hit the right spot. It was a little lower than average, but since it hit in an awkward spot I could feel the support more than usual. Like most playtests, after a week or two the arch support compressed and wasn't as much of an issue."
Foot Support/Stability - Score: 3.4
Because this shoe ran slightly big in width and length, the stability and support Carol found in this shoe was slightly off. She said, "This shoe ran very long for me, especially in the toe box. I compared it to the adidas Barricade 7.0 and found a difference in fit. My toes had some wiggle room, not only side to side, but from the bottom to the top of the shoe as well. This definitely impaired my movement, as I felt that I might stumble over the toe of the shoe." Despite these issues, she added, "My ankles felt snug and very secure in this shoe. I never felt that my ankles were going to roll over. I think the Sprintweb technology in this shoe was amazing and made quick movements around the court, whether small or long strides, fully supported. This shoe gave me great support and stability, except for the toe box."
Similar to what Carol expressed, Michelle found this shoe was a bit big for her. She said, "I was able to combat the extra width by pulling my laces tight. I enjoy that snug feel, but I had to triple knot my shoes as a result, which was a bit awkward because I felt like I had laces dragging. The extra length of the shoe hindered some of the support and trust in the shoe. I felt my feet sliding around a bit when moving side to side because of the extra space in the shoe. But like Carol said, I never felt uncomfortable or felt like I was going to twist an ankle. It just added a little extra movement to my foot that I didn't necessarily need when trying to recover or change directions." Michelle also noted that the slipping and sliding caused a bit of soreness in the base of her ankle and achilles area after an intense hitting session.
Karly enjoyed the stability of this shoe, saying, "Even though my feet were sliding around in the shoe because of the wider forefoot, I still thought the shoe offered good support. There was enough stability around my ankles that I didn't feel like I was going to roll them. I thought the support was impressive for such a light shoe."
Agreeing that this shoe had great ankle support was Brittany, who explained, "As far as ankle support goes, this shoe held its own for being a lightweight shoe. I had absolutely no issues and loved the low-to-the-ground feel this shoe offered. My one complaint would be the fit of this shoe for my narrow width foot. the shoe was on the wider side, especially the toe box, as well as being a bit long. This caused my foot to move around a ton inside the shoe when playing. I did find some relief when I tied my laces extra tight to help eliminate any feelings of instability."
Sole Durability - Score: 3.9
The durability of the CC Tempaia II was what was expected for a lightweight, fast shoe. Brittany said, "After about 15 hours of play I started to notice some balding underneath my big toe on both shoes. Comparing this to other speed shoes like the New Balance 851, Asics Solution Speed, and Nike Zoom Vapor 9 Tour, I would say it held up very well. While this isn't as durable as the Barricade, it is very good for a speed shoe."
Concurring was Carol, saying, "The overall sole durability is adequate, and kind of what I anticipated. Compared to other shoes I am playtesting this season, I would place it in the middle of the pack. This was not a standout quality, but given it's lightweight feel, it is kind of what I expected."
Michelle agreed, saying, "My shoes usually wear out right under my big toe and along the medial side of the shoe, and that is where the wear is showing on these Tempaia IIs after a solid amount of use on the court."
Karly was pleased with the durability of the outsole and was surprised at how well they held up. She said, "Most shoes in this weight category would've burned a hole through the sole in half the time. After about 15 hours of play I started to notice a little bit of wear to the forefoot of the sole, but again, I thought that was quite impressive for how light they were."
Toe Durability - Score: 4.3
adidas has added extra rubber with adiTuff material to the toe area in this updated Tempaia to ensure durability. Because of that, our playtesters found the toe-area of this shoe to hold up quite well. Karly, a slight toe dragger, said, "I didn't have any worries in the world about wearing through the toes. The toes were well protected, and with the ADIWEAR outsole I didn't see much damage to the front of the shoe at all. I loved the exceptional toe durability this shoe provided."
Toe dragger Brittany found that aside from the toe bumper getting dirty, the shoe held up very well to her toe dragging. She said, "The adiTUFF material goes up over the toe, providing plenty of protection. I did see some smoothing, as usual, but from the looks of it I have plenty more hours left with this shoe."
Traction - Score: 4.0
Brittany found the traction in the CC Tempaia II to be solid when she was moving aggressively on the court, saying, "Most of the time I had no problems moving around on the court. The modified herringbone tread pattern surprised me with how well it gripped the court. Because the toe box was on the wider side I did struggle at times with my first step, as my feet would be slipping in the shoe."
Also enjoying the traction in this shoe was Michelle, who said, "I was able to change directions easily. I felt like I could easily start and stop and never worried about the traction while running balls down. Despite the extra room in the shoe that caused my foot to slip, the traction was great and felt speedy and stable for changing directions and moving forward and back."
Karly found the same traction she had with the original Tempaia. She said, "The traction was extremely similar to the synthetic version, which was fairly decent. I was able to make aggressive movements on the court without slipping or sliding. I did notice a slight loss in traction as the playtest wore on, but not enough to cause any slipping or sliding. Again, I was quite impressed with the outsole's performance."
Carol had nothing but good things to say when it came to traction on the court with the Tempaia II, saying, "This shoe supported all my movements on the court in all directions. I do not like sliding around the court at all, and when I plant for a running forehand or backhand I fully expect my shoe to stop with me – this shoe did that!"
Weight - Score: 4.4
Michelle really enjoyed the lightweight performance of these shoes after wearing heavier shoes on the court. She said, "These shoes really did feel light weight and fast when they were on. They definitely made me feel a bit speedier."
"Extremely lightweight!" exclaimed Carol. "Given the support provided and the great cushioning, I was really impressed with how adidas was able to keep this shoe "feather light". This shoe adds no extra weight to the feet, which really promoted my movement on the court."
Brittany agreed that one of the strengths of this shoe was it's weight. She said, "This shoe is super lightweight, which I always appreciate. I felt like I was just gliding around the court. Compared to the previous non CC version, this shoe is even lighter than the non-CC version, and I give it two thumbs up. However, because of the extra width, I felt at times that I was slapping around the court."
Karly thought the weight, or lack thereof, was the standout feature of the Tempaia II. She explained, "Shoes don't get much lighter than that! They made it so easy to move fast while still offering decent support, comfort and durability. I give two big thumbs up to adidas for making such a high performance lightweight shoe."
Overall - Score: 3.9
Carol – "I really enjoyed the lightweight feel, ventilation, cushioning, and cosmetics. I think this shoe looks like a player's shoe, but it's also very feminine and perfect for going into spring and summer."
Brittany – "I loved the weight, ventilation and comfort."
Michelle – "Super light weight and easy to move in. Good cushioning and arch support. The sole wore well. I also like the colors and cosmetics of this shoe."
Karly – "I loved how easy they were to move in. I felt extremely light on my feet. Not to mention the cosmetics are great!"
Carol – "I think the shoe is too long for me and a bit wide in the toe box. I think if I had worn a smaller size this shoe would have been almost perfect. I am concerned that the smaller size would negatively impact the snugness around the arch and heel, given that these areas fit and felt great. Also, I felt the toe area wore down a little too fast. My concern here is that the shoe wouldn't last very long for me."
Brittany – "The wide toe box caused me to slide around a ton in my shoes, which led to a lack of stability."
Michelle – "They just felt too big all around. Even the laces were really long, and I had to tie them in triple knots. I probably should have gone down at least a half size."
Karly – "My big complaint was the fit -- Huge! Wide. Extremely roomy. I just wish they fit better!"
Compared to others:
Carol – "I think I would prefer this shoe to the adidas Barricade 7.0 that I playtested last year, but would have to see how a smaller size fit first. This is a great shoe and I am disappointed in the extra length. Overall, my favorite shoe this playtest season remains the Asics Gel Resolution 5 (another very lightweight shoe)."
Brittany – "These shoes are very similar to the adidas adizero Tempaia II. The definite improvement was the ventilation. I would say this shoe ran a little wider and longer than the non-CC version."
Michelle – "Compared to other shoes I've been wearing, these probably would go on the top of the list of durable, lightweight shoes. Again, the fit was big, which I don't usually have issues with in my shoes except for some of the newer Nike styles (Air Max Cage). Exact opposite fit compared to the Wilson Rush Pros, which are snug and hug my feet."
Karly – "When comparing this mesh version to the synthetic version, the most obvious differences is the fit and ventilation. The CC version improved the breathability -- they never left my feet feeling overheated like the synthetic version did. However, I though the synthetic version fit my foot much better. The CC version was much wider (and the synthetic version fit on the wider side to begin with), which left a lot of room for my foot to slide around in."
Playtester Foot Types:
Carol - Medium width, Medium arch
Brittany - Narrow width, Medium arch
Michelle - Medium width, High arch
Karly - Medium width, Medium-low arch

Cards to continue postseason push in finale
Seattle's Ramirez vies for first Interleague win against St. Louis' Miller
The Cardinals got some help on Saturday, as Philadelphia ended Washington's seven-game winning streak, taking St. Louis one step closer to securing a postseason berth despite the Cardinals' loss to Seattle.
Thanks to the Nationals' loss, the Redbirds need just seven combined St. Louis wins and Washington losses to secure at least a Wild Card spot. It was welcomed news for a club that moved back into a tie for first place with Pittsburgh following the Pirates' victory over the Cubs.
"We know they're in there and figured they would be, too. They're a good club," manager Mike Matheny said of Washington. "They've got plenty of pitching and one of the most athletic lineups in baseball, in my opinion. We knew they just weren't going to go away. But how I view that whole thing is just take care of ourselves."
St. Louis will get a chance to take another step forward on Sunday, as they face off against Erasmo Ramirez, who will get a shot at his first Interleague victory. The rookie is 0-1 with an 8.44 ERA in three games, including two starts, in previous games against National League foes.
The Mariners, meanwhile, will have to face off against Shelby Miller, who tossed 6 2/3 scoreless innings against the Brewers his last time out.
"He's a guy who has been groomed to be a big-game pitcher, in my opinion," Cardinals manager Mike Matheny said. "He's had a lot of pressure on him since the day he signed and before that that he needed to be a front-line guy."
Ramirez has gone 5-1 with a 4.57 ERA in 11 starts after missing the first three months of the season with an elbow problem. He benefited initially from strong run support, but has been pitching well on his own and has a 2.27 ERA over his last five starts, including six scoreless innings in a no-decision against the Rays in his prior outing.
However, Ramirez did throw a season-high four walks and has struggled with command this season, issuing 21 walks in 61 innings this season compared with just 12 walks in 69 innings a year ago.
"Even if I walked four and had [few] strikeouts and everything, I threw for contact," Ramirez said. "Every time I'm going to throw the ball I think about just throwing the ball for the hit and making contact and not letting the ball get right over home plate, but trying to hit the corners."
Mariners: Finding playing time for the rookies
Manager Eric Wedge continues to juggle playing time for his young players, looking to get them experience in the closing weeks of the season, while being wary of putting them in over their heads as the Mariners face playoff contenders like the Cardinals and Tigers on this 10-game road trip.
The Mariners started four rookies on Friday and three of them -- second baseman Nick Franklin, shortstop Brad Miller and catcher Mike Zunino -- committed defensive miscues in the final three innings as the Cardinals came from behind for a 2-1 win in 10 innings.
"What you're seeing with us, especially late in ballgames, is just lack of experience," said Wedge, who sat Franklin and rookie outfielder Abraham Almonte in favor of more experienced players on Saturday. "A lot of these guys got to the big leagues quick, whether it be this year or last year or the year before. Some of them are still trying to get it going and figure it out."
Wedge also said the chance to play in front of sellout crowds in the heat of a pennant race can help mold his young squad.
"That is important," he said. "I've had young teams before. My third year in Cleveland, we were still young. Not this young, but we were still young. We were in it until late and the experience we gained was big.
"It's a back-and-forth thing you have to go through. Any team that is playing like St. Louis or Detroit, unless you go out and spend a ton of money, you have to go through these growing pains to ultimately be a championship club."
Cardinals: Audrey Perez has excellent mentors
• Before Saturday's game against Seattle Cardinals catcher Audrey Perez received some tutelage from manager Mike Matheny and teammate Yadier Molina, who have combined to win nine Golden Glove awards.
"He's playing with, in my humble opinion, the best catcher to ever live in Yadi," catcher Rob Johnson, who also took part in the instructional session, said. "And Yadi is more than willing to help anybody that comes along. And your manager is a Gold Glove-caliber catcher when he played, so he's got a lot of influence and a lot of knowledge and wisdom."
Perez already has a strong arm, so the focus of the session was on footwork and quickness.
Worth noting
• In the Mariners, the Cardinals face the club with the best Interleague ERA in history. Dating back to the start of Interleague play in 1972, the Seattle staff has a 3.63 ERA.
• At 3-4, the American League West is the only Major League division the Cardinals have a losing record against.

When the Sony A77 was announced a couple of weeks ago as a replacement for the Sony Alpha 700, Sony's semi-professional APS-C camera, we were all very impressed by its specifications. So we were really excited to see how it would perform in our tests. Here are our results. |

The Sony Alpha 700 with its new version 4.0 firmware scored a 66.3 on the DxOMark Sensor scale, putting it in 17th place on the dxomark.com overall ranking, and in 5th place for APS-C cameras. Given its launch date (Sept. 2007), this is a pretty good result. |

I had the same question. Rejections have been VERY haphazard this derby. Reject 1 America's hat, reject 4 designs with gradients, leave the America's Hat with gradients. Reject Blame Canada, leave Canadaistan. (Both are anti-Canada.) Reject the Anti-Hilary design, leave the Anti-War design (Canada has cooler heads). Reject "Puck Off", leave "What the Canuck? ". Reject the curling design because there was a curling design that was never printed, leave a periodic table when there is a periodic table in print. And there's more........ The only thing that has been consistant has been the rejection of beavers.

Perhaps we can get a clarification from on high? I think it would help designers work better if we were more clear about the rulings here. Maybe there only appear to be gradients from afar, or maybe they haven't gotten around to being rejected yet... or maybe the friendly moderator is wrestling with a tough call before ruling something out?

Okay, well that one needs no clarification. :-)
daedalusknight wrote:Thanks for full disclosure. It is my (admittedly unexpert) opinion that your design is sufficiently different from the previous desgin that there is no reason to disqualify yours. They do share design elements in common, but are clearly very different in form, much as several of the leaf shirts here are different in form. Other opinions may vary, but I think yours is okay.
I agree with daedalus. They both use the same word. One has a picture of a hose, the other has a nozzle at the end of a letter. If this is a copy, then theoretically woot could disqualify every design that says Canada and has a maple leaf, since they are all share design elements with Something else somewhere else on the web.

Re: Derby Entry 11783 Hang on, folks... let's not get into a flamewar here. I came to Adder's defense before and now I'd like to speak to what Brizz is talking about. There's a very specific, confusing set of circumstances. Both KLSWoot and Cheesesandwich created shirts with the same visual style (sheet music with text), the same kind of gag (alternate lyrics) but with a different joke (not knowing the words vs. Canadian girlfriend). KLS' shirt got rejected because of this. Similarly, this shirt has the same visual style as other shirts (boxes and text), the same kind of gag (alternate elements) but with a different joke (Canada vs. Food/beverages). I don't think Brizz should be expressing things quite so negatively, though. I can think of a number of explanations as to why this shirt hasn't been rejected (or rejected YET) so I wonder if there's any way we can actually contact our kind moderator and get a clear, logical response? It seems to many here that either KLS' shirt was unfairly rejected or that the periodic table should be rejected too... either one could be the case. Let's talk things out fairly and without ire and hopefully we can get an official ruling here without anyone's feelings getting hurt.

"I believe the health benefits of flax are so important that I've made it part of my three-step core health program. It's just about the most perfect food from nature for all-around immune support, cholesterol support, healthy digestion, and healthy glowing skin."
— Dr. David Williams
Flax helps:
- Maintain healthy cholesterol levels
Flax is chock full of heart-healthy omega-3 and omega-6 (essential fatty acids). Just a 1/4 cup of flax contains 9,000 mg of omega-3's — that's twice the amount of omega-3's found in fish oils! - Promote optimum digestion
The high soluble and insoluble fiber content in flax acts as a "broom," cleaning out your intestines and promoting regularity. - Support proper immune function
Flax is a rich source of health-enhancing lignans. Though little known, lignans provide powerful support to your immune system and cellular health. In addition, the lignans found in flax are low-glycemic carbohydrates. Therefore they slow the absorption of sugar in the intestinal tract, helping to promote normal blood sugar levels as well. - Promote weight loss
Because of its high fiber content, you'll feel fuller longer, so you may eat less, and even lose weight.
*Note: An additional $3.00 heavyweight surcharge will be applied to each item ordered.
Ingredients and Dosage:
3 to 6 tablespoons daily for women; 6 to 9 tablespoons for men. Each tablespoon of flaxseed produces the equivalent of one teaspoon of flax oil.

Lovely, but slightly sheer
Good fit and comfortable, just wear a black bra underneath. Goes with a lot in the wardrobe.
September 29, 2013
Nice layering piece
Light weight tee, great for under a jacket, cardi or pullover. Perhaps a little thin for wear alone. In the softer colors, doesn't even look striped until you are very close, thus fine for us with a few more "curves" than we'd like.
August 16, 2013
This luxe t is ok. I love the perfect t's much better, and I am always a small in TL. I found I had to size up because these are very clingy. I love the colors and style. After washing they look kind of stretched out...even on gentle cycle and laid flat to dry.

Luxed Striped Trr
I love the quality of the t-shirt. So glad The Limited is keeping some of the Classic Styles.
June 16, 2013
Great Fitting T Shirt!
I love love love these shirts. I ended up buying one in all the stripe colors. The stripes are very thin so they are not overwhelming. The colors are nice, I especially like the green and yellow. I find that the striped luxe shirts are a bit thicker than the non-stripe luxe tee, which I prefer so you don't see every bump and bra line. They fit true to size, as I ordered my normal size. I also think the length of the shirt is perfect. Highly recommend to others!
June 11, 2013
Good basic T
I like it. I usually wear a small, but it is a tight fit, so I prefer to go up a size so it's not as tight.
June 2, 2013
Mixed Feelings..
I love my other TL shirts so bought 2 of these in the black/ white & yellow. It fits true to size, I'm an XS.
Returned the yellow because of the quality & the color. I tried to make it work by matching it with my TL jacket. The neckline of the yellow shirt sags under the jacket. The black/white, however did not. The yellow hue did not meet my expectations, was hoping for it to be more subtle yellow, not like the mustard shade.
June 1, 2013
Nice Casual T-Shirt
This is a perfect T-Shirt for summer. Super thin, and super casual. Very thin material, but it is nice.

Hi Kensai, do you have time time/knowledge to patch the driver in order to activate the older cards? that would be great. like i said, fiddling with unsupported drivers is better then no drivers to play with. And anyway, at least for me, the fglrx never where production quality anyway
best regards
PS: no offense to your work bridgeman.
Redirected direct rendering doesn't really affect Xv; RDR allows a direct-rendering client (like the 3D driver) to have its output redirected through a compositor.
Huh ? Xvideo has been redirecting for a few months already. Are you saying that it never worked for you, or that it stopped working in 9.4 ?
If you want unredirected Xv then just turn off the compositor. You can't use unredirected outputs under a compositor anyways.
What is with everyone supporting Ubuntu? Yes it is popular, and those that run Debian know that Ubuntu supported products will work but not necessarily the other way around. I mean way more distros spawn from Debian, and its not like Ubuntu provides a stabler platform to support. I guess Ubuntu just provides a company to work with.
More of our customers report using Ubuntu than Debian (at least 2x as many); if we believed that making the driver work with Debian would magically make it work on all the Debian derivatives as well then I think we would be considering that, but so far that hasn't been the case. The changes between Debian and the downstream distros can be pretty significant.
We also see more OEM interest in pre-loading Ubuntu than in pre-loading Debian.

If you are having problems when resizing to full screen, check and see if the "unredirect fullscreen windows" option is set in Compiz. There were some reports of problems with on-the-fly redirecting; if that's your issue then turning off the unredirect option should help.
I found out that every fglrx driver I tested yet crashes vdrift test in pts on exit. How many mounth will it take to fix that bug?

Mariners look to close first half by sweeping Angels
Nothing has gone as planned for Angels right-hander Joe Blanton. He has a 2-11 record and 5.40 ERA in 18 starts on the season and just one win in his last eight starts, but he'll try to head into the All-Star break on a high note when the Angels and Mariners wrap up the first half at Safeco Field.
While Blanton, who allowed six runs on eight hits in five innings for the loss on Tuesday against the Cubs, doesn't think Sunday's start carries any extra significance, Angels manager Mike Scioscia is hoping to see more consistency out of the right-hander.
"You have to see every start to get a flavor for what's wrong with his season. Obviously, his raw numbers are not good," Scioscia said. "You see quality starts that are mingled with some of the rough starts. He has pitched better than some of his starts indicate, but overall he has not pitched the way we need him to."
While it has been an underwhelming first half for Blanton, Mariners right-hander Hisashi Iwakuma has flourished, going 7-4 with a 2.97 ERA and earning his first All-Star selection.
Over his last five starts, however, he has gone 0-3 with a 6.83 ERA. The long ball has been his Achilles' heel in many of those starts, allowing 10 home runs in his last four outings. A quality start on Sunday would be a big boost to Iwakuma's confidence.
Against the Red Sox on Tuesday, Iwakuma allowed six runs on eight hits in just three innings of a no-decision.
"Well, he's so consistent mentally, he handles everything," Mariners manager Eric Wedge said. "He's out there for the right reasons, and that's giving us a chance to win."
Angels: Hanson on track to rejoin rotation
Tommy Hanson, who was placed on the 15-day disabled list May 21 with a right forearm strain, appears to be on track to take the fifth spot in the rotation after the All-Star break. The right-hander looked good during a simulated game Saturday.
"Tommy's doing very well," Scioscia said. "He's going to throw another bullpen and then hopefully he'll have a rehab start next weekend and see when he's ready to be put back in our rotation.
"If he progresses and is ready, I would hope he'd be a candidate [to start July 23], but he needs to go out and pitch and we'll evaluate where he is."
Mariners: Pryor close to returning to bullpen
Reliever Stephen Pryor threw a simulated game before Saturday's game against the Angels without experiencing any setbacks, moving him another step closer to rejoining the Mariners.
"Pryor threw again today, looked good," Wedge said before Saturday's contest. "He had [Dustin] Ackley and [Franklin] Gutierrez hitting against him. It's his second sim game, and he feels good so we'll see how he feels tomorrow but we're hoping to get him out to [Class A] Everett over the All-Star break."
Pryor has only pitched 7 1/3 innings for Seattle this year, giving up one run on three hits.
Worth noting
• In 17 career starts against the Mariners, Blanton is 8-6 with a 3.50 ERA.
• The Mariners have hit at least one home run in a club-record 21 straight games.

Christiana is a friend of one of Hegre-Art's most popular models, Yanna. In fact it was Yanna who referred her to us.
They are both dancers and have performed at theaters in Prague as part of the same group. Like Yanna, Christiana is also very flexible. Posing for Petter Hegre, was her first time ever doing nudes - but one can only say she is a natural talent.
She has an incredible tight and perky ass, and discovered her sexuality at a very early age, something she tells us all about in a very revealing interview. A sexy 'girl next door' type, she says: "I'm no model." We here at Hegre-Art are of a different opinion.
Lean, lithe and with very appealing eyes -we think Christiana definitely has a future ahead of her as a nude model.

No matter how pulmonary hypertension entered your life, all members of the PH community share common goals – to end the isolation of living with this rare disease, to help inform and educate others about PH and ultimately to find a cure. By joining together in this fight we grow stronger every day.
Awareness Month provides us all with a unique opportunity to not only increase awareness of pulmonary hypertension but to raise funds to support much-needed community services and bring us closer to a cure.
While there may not be enough time between now and November to plan a large-scale event, there are other ways to help fundraise as together we focus on Lighting the Way to a Better Tomorrow.
Even when it's not Awareness Month, we invite you to become involved in one of our fundraising programs. These programs raise awareness while raising funds, and they provide multiple opportunities for others to show their support for you and the entire PH community.
Fundraising opportunities can range from a 200 guest gala to a 10 person work party, or a single personal fundraising page! PHA is here to help you every step of the way. Get involved and help keep PHA services and research thriving.

Pleasanton, KS 66075
Phil Buser, Asst. Wildlife Manager
5 miles East of La Cygne
A 30-year lease was signed on 23 June 1978 between KCP&L, KG&E, and Kansas Fish and Game Commission (now Kansas Department of Wildlife and Parks).
La Cygne Lake is a 2,600-acre cooling reservoir for a coal-fired generating plant owned by Kansas City Power and Light, with 2,000 acres of the watershed comprising the wildlife area. The area is mostly wooded uplands, with some grass meadows and crop fields.
The wildlife area has excellent opportunities for deer, wild turkey, and squirrel hunting. Quail and rabbit hunting can be good at times. Waterfowl hunting can be good on the lake, and excellent on the warm-water discharge when severe weather congregates birds. Kansas Department of Wildlife and Parks maintains one boat ramp in the warm-water discharge area of the lake, and one boat ramp at the north end of the lake for accessing the main body of the lake.
- Firearms are restricted to shotguns, muzzleloaders, and rim-fire rifles. Center-fire rifles are not allowed.
- Pleasure boating, wind surfing, water skiing, and swimming is not allowed.
- Boats must be specifically for fishing or hunting.

The first part of Basic Leader Training is the general This Is Scouting (was New Leader Essentials) which highlights the values, aims, history, funding, and methods of Scouting. The second part is Leader Specific Training which provides more specialized information about the leader's particular position and an introduction to outdoor leader skills and Wood Badge.
All BSA-registered volunteers must also complete Youth Protection Training.
