Vinny you are Awesome. Keep it up. More vinny coffee jar videos.
It wouldn't be an Ubisoft game without ten hours worth of credits.
Congrats to (a tired looking) you and your wife! Glad to see max is a healthy little guy. Thanks for the update. See you in the office soon.
Vinny! How we've missed you
This video is amazing.
Good to hear from Vinny! New series! Baby time with Vinny!
Vinny #1
This video took me back to my sons first month. The look in his eyes. The longing for sleep. The acceptance that you won't get the sleep that you want. Pushing past that point and manning the F up because you're a daddy now and you gotta do what you've got to do....Good to see you back Vinny. Glad to see that you've got a healthy boy on your hands as well. Congrats.
Mega Congrats Vinny, be great to see ya back in the office with the gang.....
YES! Man Vinndog looks tired as all hell.
The Italian Stallion rides again!
Also, the beard looks really good on you.
Congrats Vinny! Mine is due in 2 weeks...
Hey, it's a mini-vinny! Congratulations, the kid looks adorable.
Aaaannnnnnnnnd... sleep.
It's good to see that all is well with the baby, apart from the lack of sleep.
Damn the production on this video was top notch! Very enjoyable.
Also congrats again on the baby Vinny, he looks good!
:O why is Vinny upside-down and blue? I'm scared to press play :O
That was an awesome surprise! Yay Vinny!
Vinny seems, tired.
VINNEHHHHHH! He looks exhausted. Nice of him to do this video for us.

You know when people say "Looks just like mommy/daddy!" about babies? Yea, I could hardly ever see it. But god damnit if Max doesn't have your nose, Vinny :D
Max is so awesome he's already got the "Got your nose!" trick down, awesome!
Vinny's ability to play so many games while having a baby makes me feel dopey for oftentimes thinking I'm too busy to play games while in college
God bless you for doing this Vinny. Can't believe you still thought of all us nutters when you have so much going on.
Ladies and gentlemen, the most likeable man in games, the gentle Italian giant, Mr. Vinny Caravella is returned!
Congrats Vinny but you gotta get that little guy working at Giant Bomb. Maybe start him off just doing quick look and news but once he gets settled do a father son endurance run.
Good to have you back dude.
Btw, does anyone know what track is on in the background around 4 minutes in?
Grats Vinny. I mean on beating all those games... I guess the kid is a big deal too though! :D
The funny thing is having a newborn is he EASIEST part of having a kid. It only get more and more difficult. Then it goes QUAD DAMAGE when your wife decides she wants the second kid. Two kids is literally 4x the work, not 2x as you would logically expect.
Grats Vinny!
I love you Vinny. Please never change.
Dude, just awesome. You have way more on your plate than me, and yet still manage some gaming goodness.
Will be glad to have you back!
Heavily bearded Vinny is an awesome Vinny.
Also major props, one of the only guys I know who will take two weeks away from work to deal with a kid and STILL make content for said work. A champ among men. Oh and Max is freaking adorable.
Great to see Vinny, damn he looks tired.
We never had a problem when my son was born, he always slept through the night 99% of the time. Figured that timing his feeding so that he became sleepy when we wanted to go to bed helped alot.
Congrats Vinny!
Mini Vinny!!!
Yay for Vinny, but, man. Poor poor Vinny...

At least that's better then being too busy to go to class because of video games. (A problem that I often have.)
@ApuZ said:
I second this question. The drop was timed perfectly. "Final Cut... *BWEEOO* *WUB* Ten."
And I think Justin McElroy said it best: "SUCH a dope baby." Hang in there!
When I hear the awesome name you chose for him, I hear "Introducing, the first President of the United States Moon Base - a joint project with GiantBomb Industries Zaibatsu - Massimilano Rex Caravella!"
I'm glad that Vinny found the time to do this video. It's awesome that he's doing well.
Good stuff Vinny, don't worry TOO much about the office - get some rest so we can get Vinny at a 100% soon!
Awww... look at that baby!
Max is adorable, congrats!
Vinny you're awesome!
This video is awesome!
Great video.

19.10.08 - by James Slater - We've seen how one veteran, in Bernard Hopkins, fared when he went up against the unbeaten Joe Calzaghe; 'Nard lost a close and debatable split decision. Next up, on November 8th, we'll see how another ageing great, in Roy Jones Junior, does against "The Pride of Wales." And should Jones actually go one better than Hopkins and defeat Joe, wouldn't it make perfect sense for the two legends to have a return meeting of their 1993 fight? It sure would.
These two have been destined to meet again at some point ever since their May 1993 fight. And now that B-Hop has once again risen to the top of the sport thanks to his sensational upset of middleweight king Kelly Pavlik, the timing for a Hopkins-Jones II is about perfect - if Jones does well against Calzaghe, that is. For even if Jones were to do okay against the Welshman in November, a return with "The Executioner" would still be a big seller, whereas a win for the former pound-for-pound king on November 8th would make such a return a genuine mega-fight.
Jones, who was at ringside last night as Hopkins dominated Pavlik, is, Bernard claims, the one and only man to have ever beaten him fair and square. Taking the IBF middleweight title fight relatively early in his pro career (only his 24th fight), Hopkins was nowhere near the complete ring master he was to become, whereas Jones, though he'd actually had less fights at the time, was a much more advanced athlete. Doing it again, next year some time, would settle it when it comes to just who the better man is after all.
But would Jones want to go back in with the marvellously well preserved and conditioned Philly great? Of course, a lot of it has to do with how Jones, who is now almost 40-years-old himself, copes with Calzaghe. If he's beaten up and either KO'd or hammered convincingly, then any chance of a return with Hopkins will have vanished. But if Jones can either pull it off or push Joe to a close decision, as B-Hop did, the two could conceivably do it again some 16-years on from their first clash.
The fight would absolutely be intriguing. Who has retained their skills better? Who can still fight for 12 fast-paced rounds? And who is the finer 160-175-pound fighter of the last 15-plus years? These questions and others would be answered if the two modern day masters got it on for a second time. Actually, the answer to the first question seems to be clear judging by Hopkins' awe-inspiring victory last night in Atlantic City. But Jones has his own attempt at giving Father Time a beat down in three weeks time. Maybe R.J will look as good as B-Hop did last night? Maybe.
A Jones-Hopkins II would definitely offer more to gain for Hopkins. Jones has already beaten him once and may see an unnecessary risk in boxing him again. But one thing seems sure, Hopkins, the way he looked against Pavlik, is not going to retire any time soon, and if Jones shocks Calzaghe he's almost certainly going to want to carry on also. Who better for each guy to fight next year than each other?
Hopkins-Jones II, it could be much more than just two veterans settling a score - if Jones does to Calzaghe what Hopkins did to Pavlik it would a meeting between the two best light-heavyweights on the planet! .

The objective of a weight loss and diet program is for you to create a dependable outlook to your slimming regime and also a focus on obtaining an exercise program. The objective is to burn off excessive fat from your body and replace it with lean and healthy muscle.
Your weight reduction program will require your dedication and constant attention, so you need to prepare your mental outlook as well as get a check up for your body. Your weight loss program in a week will depend on your attitude.
When you are starting any weight loss program, you should have a positive outlook and look forward to perfecting your results. Many people get impatient and this leads to failure but to ensure success you must stick to your guns with your goal in sight to win.
Prior to commencing any exercise you should stretch out your muscles and tendons to avoid some of the soreness. You will be sore the first time you work out but that soon passes and the best relief for the soreness is to get back in the saddle and do some more.
Always take it easy first time too and don't train too hard. It all should be done in moderation and to a level where you feel comfortable.
The 1st Week
On the first day of your new lifestyle, try to take a long walk early in the morning for around 30 minutes. Move along at a steady pace so you can feel a slight strain in your legs and back.
Get some yoga CDs or a book and learn some simple stretches. Or if you are a martial arts fan, some karate stretches would be ideal and wouldn't take as long as a yoga routine. So, within the first hour of your new fitness routine you have taken a couple of essential steps.
On the next day you should pay attention to your upper body. The section is always a favorite with most bodybuilders and anyone who uses a gym on a regular basis. The main exercise is bench presses or if you haven't joined a gym yet you can do some push-ups on the arms of a lazy chair, or the seat of a small chair.
A brisk walk again on the third day for around 15-20 minutes and in the evening the lower body should be exercised. This will include some sit-ups and crouches holding the seat of a small chair—do 20 to 50 of these until your thighs start to burn a little.
The fourth day is a day of rest after a good stretch. This gap in your training might be useful if you include some meditation to clear your mind of any negative emotions.
Take a ten minute brisk walk on the fifth day and then more exercises on the lower body, followed by some more stretches.
The exercises on the sixth day should be low key like swimming or tennis. Don't be afraid to try a new exercise to avoid getting bored. Finish the day with some upper body movements and a little stretching.
On the last day of the week try a little of each of the activities you have already been doing. Take a walk and then do some stretching followed by meditation.
You are now passed the beginning and if you accompany these activities with your weight loss program you will soon have the body you have always dreamed of.

Landslide Death Toll Rises, Number Of Missing Drops
Originally published on Sun March 30, 2014 6:11 pm
The death toll has risen to 18 following the devastating landslide near Oso, Washington, but the number of people missing has fallen dramatically -- down to 30.
Searchers are still pulling bodies from the debris -- sometimes in pieces.
Steve Schertzinger, a chaplain with the nearby Marysville Police Department, describes what it was like to deliver bad news to a grieving family member.
"We sat down and I just said well, the waiting is over. And then I cried. I cried."
And Schertzinger says he expects the sorrow to hang over this community long after the search for victims is done.
"This was not an event. This really is a whole season. So it won't even be over when the last body is found. It will continue on."
Heavy rain continues to hamper search teams. But crews have managed to finish a primitive road linking one side of the landslide site to the other.
That will aide recovery crews but it's not open to the general public.

An imaging system which incorporates a gate (which can be implemented either in hardware or software) for gating video signals to a host PC. The present invention allows fixed frame cameras to be used in applications which would otherwise require the host PC to have prohibitively large amounts of random access memory. However, by selecting predetermined frames of video data from a fixed frame output camera, the present invention simulates the effect of a variable frame rate camera.
1. An imaging system for controlling the flow of image data to a host computer, comprising:
a gate having:
an input port for accepting a first series of electrical signals representing an image, wherein said first series of electrical signals has a first frame rate;
an output port for coupling said first series of electrical signals to a host computer; and
a control port for controlling the passage of said electrical signals from said input port to said output port to generate a second series of electrical signals having a second frame rate; and
means for sending command signals to said control port of said gate to enable said gate to pass said second series of electrical signals from said input port to said output port.
2. The system of claim 1, wherein said means for sending is a micro controller and wherein said micro controller includes control program.
3. The system of claim 2, wherein said micro controller includes an input port for receiving said control program from said host computer.
4. The system of claim 2, further including a first signal conditioning circuit coupled to said input port of said gate for conditioning the electrical signals inputted to said input port.
5. The system of claim 4, further including a second signal conditioning circuit coupled to said output port of said gate for conditioning the electrical signal, outputted from said output port of said gate.
6. The system of claim 2, wherein said control program further includes means for sensing an external event.
7. The system of claim 6, wherein said external event is initiated by said host computer.
8. The system of claim 6, wherein said external event is initiated by a physical event.
9. The system of claim 1, wherein said control program further includes means for outputting a trigger signal.
10. The system of claim 1, wherein said electrical signals represent an infrared image.
11. An active thermography imaging system, comprising:
means for accepting a first series of electrical signals representing sequential portions of an infrared image, wherein said first series of electrical signals has a first frame rate;
means for selecting certain signals in said first series of electrical signals representing said infrared images to generate a second series of electrical signals having a second frame rate; and
means for passing said second series of electrical signals representing said infrared images to a host computer.
12. The system of claim 11, wherein said means for selecting includes a micro controller programmed with an algorithm which commands said micro controller to select certain ones of said electrical signals at a rate proportioned to an exponential decay function.
This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Application No. 60/015,868, filed May 29, 1996.
This invention relates to imaging systems and more particularly relates to devices which control the selection and transfer of portions of video data.
Video cameras and video systems have found widespread use in many entertainment, security, scientific and engineering applications. For many of these applications, continuous data acquisition at the highest possible frame rate is required. However, for some scientific and engineering applications where the target varies (or an attribute thereof) in time or position, it may be necessary to gate the acquisition of image data to coincide with an external event, e.g. a part passing on a conveyer belt or heating of a part induced by a laser. For these applications, intermittent data acquisition, or acquisition at a continuously variable rate may reduce data storage requirements yet provide a concise summary of the behavior of the target during a particular time interval.
Early video systems were based on visual analysis of images on a display screen, either in real time or during playback from a video tape or video disk. Subsequent improvements allowed analog video data to be digitized by frame grabber cards in a host personal computer. Today, cameras which output digital data directly are gaining popularity, particularly in infrared (IR) imaging. The use of a digital camera allows images to be processed numerically, by the host computer, without the errors due to digitization or loss of dynamic range common to analog frame grabbers. However, the computer memory available for image analysis and storage is finite, so that image sequences which can be routinely processed by a human observer, say, 30 seconds, may not be practical for a personal computer.
In these types of applications where the target phenomena to be imaged varies in time, it is useful to match the rate of data acquisition more closely to the rate at which the phenomena changes. For example, for nondestructive testing applications, where a target is imaged in the IR in order to monitor its surface temperature in response to a transient heating or cooling stimulus (e.g. a laser pulse or electrical current), it would be most desirable to capture data at the highest possible rate during and immediately after the heating event, since significant frame to frame variations are likely to occur during this phase. However, as the cooling rate of the target decreases, it may no longer be necessary to acquire data at the highest acquisition rate, since differences between adjacent frames are likely to be quite small as time passes. Ideally, a camera designed for this type of application would have a continuously variable frame rate. Unfortunately, such devices are considerably more expensive than fixed frame rate cameras. In the IR, the use of a variable frame rate camera to image a target which is either heating or cooling can pose significant technical problems, since the response of the individual detector elements on the camera focal plane array may need to be calibrated for specific integration times and temperature ranges, and the calibration tables may need to be changed in real time, as the frame rate and temperature vary.
In view of the above, an object of this invention is to provide both hardware and software which provides precise control over the timing of digital image data acquisition by a personal computer, and simulates the effect of a variable frame rate camera.
In view of the above, an object of this invention is to provide both hardware and software which simulates the effect of a variable frame rate camera.
The present invention includes an imaging system for controlling the flow of image data to a host computer including a gate having an input port, an output port and a control path for controlling the passage of electrical signals from the input port to the output port. The imaging system includes a microprocessor which controls the flow of electrical signals through the gate in accordance with a predetermined algorithm. The gate can be comprised of the internal gating structure of the micro controller or it can be comprised of dedicated hardware outside of the micro controller which is controlled by the output control signals of the micro controller.
In a preferred embodiment, the imagining system includes signal conditioning circuitry for changing the voltage levels of the electrical signals delivered to the imaging system and sent from the imaging system to a host computer. In a preferred embodiment the micro controller includes an input port for downloading the control programs from the host computer to the microcomputer.
Preferably, the system is capable of sensing an external event such as a command sent by the host computer or an operator activated switch to initiate the control function of the imaging system.
In a preferred embodiment, the imaging system is capable of generating an output trigger signal to be used by cameras which accept external trigger signals.
In a second embodiment the present invention includes an active thermography imaging system including a means for accepting a series of electrical signals representing sequential portions of an infrared image, means for selecting certain ones of said sequential portions, and means for passing said selected portions to a host computer.
FIG. 1 illustrates a nondestructive imaging system according to the prior art; and
FIG. 2 illustrates an embodiment of a nondestructive imaging system according to the present invention.
Now referring to FIG. 1, prior art nondestructive imaging systems typically include a video imaging camera 10, flash lamp 12 and sample 14. In the traditional approach, flash lamp 12 is turned on for a predetermined time and is pointed in a direction which illuminates target 14 thereby heating its surface. After a predetermined time, flash lamp 12 is turned off and camera 10 captures the infrared image of target 14 as it cools. The image is digitized (typically into RS-422 format) and coupled to a video input card of host system 16. Both visible and infrared cameras frequently output digital image data at frame rates of 60 frames/second or higher. The digital output data is customarily presented in RS-422 format but other formats are sometimes used. Once the data is transferred to host computer 16 it can be analyzed, viewed or stored on the mother board of host 16 through the use of any one of a number of commercially available video digital interface cards. Although most personal computers allow data transfer at sufficiently high speeds so that reasonably sized (256�256 pixels) images can be transferred at the full 60 frames/second data rate, such transfer requires that a large allotment of RAM in host computer 16 for temporary storage of the image data file. In order to store a 256�256 pixel image (i.e. one frame) at a 60 frame/second rate, over 7 megabytes of memory must be allotted for each second of data which is acquired (assuming 2 bytes/pixel). At this frame size, acquisition of 20 seconds of continuous data would exceed the 128 megabyte maximum RAM capability of even some of the most advanced personal computers currently available.
Now referring to FIG. 2, the present invention overcomes the memory shortcomings associated with the prior art approach by using a system which simulates the effect of a variable frame rate camera. The system includes both stand alone electronic hardware and software. The present invention is designed for use in applications where digital data from a fixed rate camera is acquired at a variable frame rate for transfer to a host PC which is equipped with a digital data acquisition card or similar device.
The system of the present invention will now be explained in conjunction with FIG. 2. Camera 10 captures the light 18 (visual spectrum or infrared) which emanates from target 14. As has already been mentioned, light 18 is caused to emanate from target 14 by activating flash lamps 12, 12' at a predetermined energy level which is sufficient to irradiate the surface of target 14. Image data collected by camera 10 is converted into electrical signals (typically in RS-422 data format) and transferred along cable 20 from camera 10 into control circuit 22.
Control circuit 22 is comprised of first and second signal conditioning circuits 24, 28, respectively and micro controller 26. RS-422 data from camera 10 is transferred to first signal conditioning circuit 24 where it is converted into TTL format. This data conversion is necessary because most micro controllers 26 do not directly accept the voltage levels associated with RS-422 format and therefore these voltage levels must be converted to TTL format or whatever format is compatible with the input circuits of micro controller 26. Micro controller 26 monitors the TTL data in real time and performs selective filtering of the TTL data in accordance with control program logic 30 stored within micro controller 26. Micro controller 26 will monitor each frame of data and either pass or block each frame in accordance with the predetermined algorithm embodied in control program logic 30. One such control algorithm would operate to pass frames of image date at a frame rate that is varied in accordance with an exponential decay function. Many other schemes can be used depending on the nature of the rate of change of the phenomena being captured.
Frames which are passed, are sent from digital input port 32 to digital output port 34. At digital output port 34 the data is reconverted from TTL to RS-422 format and passed along cable 36 to the video input card of host computer 16. This pass/block function is indicated functionally by block 38 found within micro controller 26. In the preferred embodiment of the present invention, this gating function is accomplished within micro controller 26 thereby eliminating the need for external hardware gates. However, it is possible to accomplish the gating function of the present invention by way of hardware which is separate from the internal logic control gates of micro controller 26.
Remote Programming
In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, it is contemplated that control program logic 30 is installed within micro controller 26 by way of downloading it from host computer 16. This downloading can be accomplished over bus 40.
Remote Command Inputs and Outputs
Various schemes can be used to remotely initiate the commencement of video acquisition. For example, remote I/O lines 42 can be used to accept a start command from either a manual switch 44 or host PC 16. After a designated period of time has lapsed beyond the receipt of a start signal, micro controller 26 sends a trigger signal along cable 46 to an external heating device such as a flash lamp or a laser. When the system is designed such as this (i.e., a time delay between the initiation signal and the trigger signal), data can be acquired both before and after the heating event.
Micro controller 26 can be programmed to generate an output signal (either digital or analog) to signal to host PC 16 the commencement and completion of each digital frame. This information can be passed from micro controller 26 to host PC 16 by way of bus 40 or any other suitable communication link. Of course, any number of commands can be defined between micro controller 26 and host PC 16 so that "hand shaking" between the two computers can take place. Such communication and hand shaking is well known to those skilled in the computer interface art.
Preferably, any hand shaking which does take place between micro controller 26 and host PC 16 should be defined by a sufficiently complex set of instructions (having error checking) such that false triggering caused by static, electromagnetic pulses, interruption of power and the like will not affect the integrity of the information passed between micro controller 26 and host PC 16.
Remote Gating
An important aspect of the present invention is that control program logic 30 is capable of generating a variable frame rate signal along line 48. Thus, for certain commercially available cameras which are capable of generating output frames in accordance with a variable frame rate signal, control circuit 22 of the present invention can be directly interfaced with such cameras. One such infrared camera is sold under the name of Galileo manufactured by Amber Engineering of Goleta, Calif. and several visible light cameras are available through DALASA of Toronto, Canada.
Dynamic Buffering
Because micro controller 26 incorporates digital memory (not specifically shown), control circuit 22 is capable of providing a means of buffering the data transfer between camera 10 and host PC 16. One simple way of implementing such a function is to program micro controller 26 to act as a shift register which insures that the dynamic range of the data from the camera is matched to the dynamic range of the video acquisition card from within host PC 16.
Complex Heating Patterns
One operational mode which can easily be programmed into micro controller 26 is an operational mode wherein complex heating patterns are generated by lamps 12, 12'. For example, it is fairly easy to generate a signal along control line 46 wherein the intensity of the light emitted from heat lamp 12, 12' is varied in time (such as a sinusoid, ramp, etc.). By using complex heating patterns such as these, image data can be acquired which may unlock clues regarding subsurface defects within target 14 which might not otherwise be evident using traditional lamp control modes.
Multiple Camera Interface
In a preferred embodiment, the images from several cameras 10, 50, 52 and 54 are all processed sequentially by control circuit 22. In this embodiment, the outputs 20, 56, 58 and 60 from cameras 10, 50, 52, and 54 respectively are routed into hardware multiplex switch 62 which is under direct control of micro controller 26 by way of control line 64. The output 66 of multiplex switch 62 is routed to the input of first signal conditioning circuit 24 whereby it is processed in accordance with one or more of the filtering, buffering, etc. schemes which has already been discussed. In the multiple camera embodiment, control line 20 is not routed directly into first signal conditioning circuit 24 but rather is routed into multiplex switch 62 as shown by dotted line 20'.
The primary advantages of the system of the present invention include:
1. It allows targets to be imaged for relatively long time intervals without require excessive amounts of computer RAM.
2. It synchronizes image acquisition with external heating events and allows complex heating patterns (e.g., sinusoidal heating patterns) to be generated.
3. It prevents accidental triggering of external devices by the host computer.
4. Provides control of variable image acquisition rate and external heating events through a single software interface and does not require low level programming of the digital data acquisition card found on the host PC system.
Although the present invention has been described in terms of operation of video frames of data, it can also be programmed to perform the identical pass/block function on subsets (or subportions) of video frames of information such as horizontal lines of video data or even individual pixels of video data.
The foregoing detailed description shows that the preferred embodiments of the present invention are well suited to fulfill the objects of the invention. It is recognized that those skilled in the art may make various modifications or additions to the preferred embodiments chosen here to illustrate the present invention, without departing from the spirit of the present invention. Accordingly, it is to be understood that the subject sought to be afforded protection hereby should be deemed to extend to the subject matter defined in the appended claims, including all fair equivalents thereof.

nvidia.o for redhat kernel 2.4.18-19.7xsmp
I am trying install the NVIDIA kernel from the source file. It cannot find nvidia.o file for the kernel. Any thoughts on how to get or build this file.
You need to install correspoinding kernel source code.
In order to get NVIDIA kernel source code compiled, you need to install the correspoinding kernel source file to /usr/src/linux. I used to have the same trouble as you. I can't find the kernel-source-2.4.18-19.7.x in RedHat web site. So I install the old rpm from the CDROM, and update it.
Good luck!

Adam Champ and Marc Dylan
Hirsute muscle god Adam Champ and seething young demi-god Marc Dylan are rocking it in a tight embrace, pulling each other's clothes off to reveal Adam's hairy and harnessed chest, and Marc's smooth, marble muscle. Marc dives into sucking Adam's fat, lip-stretching cock, savoring his foreskin as the iron hard stud mauls the youth's nipples. Adam spits multiple gobs of saliva onto Marc's pristine hole, readying it for the sudden assault of his wicked tool. Marc's simultaneously anguished and pleasured moans mount with each scorching ass-plug, until both men grab their cocks and choke out their sizzling, explosive loads. There's man-cum for all.

ALBAICIN, Granada
9 Reviews
9 Reviews
Favorite thing:
El Albayzín is a district that retains the narrow winding streets of its Medieval Moorish past. It was declared a world heritage site in 1984, along with the more famous Alhambra.
It rises on a hill facing the Alhambra and many tourists journey into the Albayzin primarily for the spectacular views of the Alhambra from the viewing point by the church of San Nicolas.
We enjoyed the views at Albayzin from Alhambra and when we were passing it by on the way to the theatre of flamenco.
You can watch my 5 min 31 sec about Video Along Granada by bus in the evening out of my Youtube channel or here on VT.
Favorite thing: The Alhambra sitting on its high ground with only the area of Albaycin being higher is an ideal platform for photos. The first photo shows the church and courtyard where we were able the day before to take photos of the Alhambra during the day and later after nightfall with the lights illuminating its walls. The Albaycin is laid out before you when viewed from the Alhambra, but when you are within its streets it is a curving warren of small nooks and crannies leading you up and down the slopes of the hills.
Favorite thing: Favourite thing about Granada ( apart from the Alhambra) ? Definitely the Albaicin which I set off in search of the minute I arrived in Granada. In search of mystery and history I shot up Reyes Catolicos, ignoring the cathedral and the market place, hell bent on losing myself in the maze of steep winding streets, squares and alleyways that make up the World Heritage Site of the Albaicin. Starting from Plaza Nueva I climbed up a short hill with stars patterned on the cobbles and turned left. Here, just a short way beyond the Santa Ana Church are the Banos Arabes Al Andalus and a definite indication that you are entering the Moorish quarter. This little street of Santa Ana is really picturesque and you can carry on to the end then cross over the small bridge which brings you out on Carrera del Darro.Here there are lots of mansions which have definitely seen better days but are still very impressive. One of these, Casa de Castril at no. 41 is actually the city's Archeological Museum and is free to holders of EU passports. Turning away from the river ( which is more like a mill stream than a river ) passing the church of San Juan de los Reyes, you eventually arrive at the Plaza Larga and then to the Mirador de San Nicolas From here you have the best view in town of the Alhambra and when you've finished 'oohing and aahing 'you can head back down towards Calle de Elvira crisscrossing from one street and plaza to another as you go. The Albaicin has far too many buildings of specific interest to mention here but just wandering and absorbing the atmosphere is all you need to do. It's not as sinister or mysterious as I imagined it would be and parts of it are quite commercialised but you will definitely be glad you came.
Favorite thing: The integration of the Spanish and Moorish cultures has produced a very interesting piece of art that is so unique and amazing.Thats make Granada and Andalucia in general extraordinary than any other part of Spain.
Favorite thing:
Take Carrera de Darro (from Plaza Nueva) until the Paseo de los tristes (you should come here in the afternoon when the sun goes down and the Alhambra lights get on, lots of terrazas to have tapas and drinks...), climb the little streets up to the Miradores, where you can enjoy beautiful views of the Alhambra ... and get yourself lost.... (well at least that's what I always do, but never at night...), I always finish (I wonder how I manage lol) at Calle Carreteria, where I feel transported to a morocco Zoco, and enjoy some tea and sweets in any of the morocco tea shops there....
During the climb see that all the gardens are called Carmen, as my name... :-)
Most of the inhabitants of this quater at the11th century were Jews. They ruled the city until the XII century, when the Muslims took the power and the Nazaries were in powere for 2 centuries, till in 1492 the catholic recovered the city..
Favorite thing:
the Name Granada is very mysterious, 'great castle' might come as close as it gets.
a Roman Fortress once stood on Albaicin Hill. when the Moors arrived, the Town was largely inhabited by Jews and it is said, they settled in Spain even before the Romans.
Albaicin means 'quarter of falconers'
after Cordoba fell into christian hands, the Moors fled Cordoba and settle in Granada, transfering Moorish Power to Granada 1236, bringing their architects, money and skills with them, building again...the Alhambra, the moorish masterpiece of reddish stone
Fondest memory: closing the circle of moorish, christian and jewish heritage....coming from Huelva, Cordoba, Sevilla...arriving in Granada. although Cordoba is my favorite..Granada was a real highlight, absolutly fantastic feel, and driving through 'El Andaluz', the fields of Sunflowers, Olivegroves feril Landscape.
but puting the pages together for VT, reading and learning more about this heritage of human kind. Granada is a City of World Heritage....I realy enjoyed that, might not have gone into it again
Favorite thing:
To take a walk around the narrow streets in the Albaicin will for me always be connected with being in Granada.
I have now been in Granada several times and everytime I go there I take a walk around this old neighbourhood - without my map - just going down new streets that I have never seen before.
It is always fasinating what I end up seing and who I might end up meeting. The Albaicin is such a beautiful place to spend a cool day walking around.
Favorite thing: The church located in the Plaza Nueva, should be your first port of call for the Albaicin district. Walk past the church up the little lane following the river. Good views of the Alhambra on the hill to your right. When you reach the small Tapas bars further up any left turn will take you directly into the Albaicin district.
Favorite thing:
Climb up to the top of Albaisin hill just before sunset.
The view of Alhambra at sunset is something you'll never forget!!

at first, my perlskills are limited so please keep that in mind. ;)
I have written a perlscript which indexes a directory and does something for each file in it.
Processing a file takes some time. Between 1 - 5 mins each at a cpu load nearly 100% (one core). My idea is, cause i have a quadcore cpu, to process more then one file at once, which leads me to perl threads.
So here are my questions.
1) Is my assumption right, that perl threads are allocated automatically to multiple cores?
2) I found this code example which does what i need, i think but i cannot figure out, how to keep always only 8 threads active. The example starts a static count of threads and is done when they are processed. However, in my case i have, lets say, 50 files to process but only 8 threads should be active at the same time.
So it should be like this: Read the directory, start 8 threads for the 8 first files and keep 8 threads working until all files are processed.
# This is compiled with threading support
use strict;
use warnings;
use threads;
use threads::shared;
print "Starting main program\n";
my @threads;
for ( my $count = 1; $count <= 10; $count++) {
my $t = threads->new(\&sub1, $count);
foreach (@threads) {
my $num = $_->join;
print "done with $num\n";
print "End of main program\n";
sub sub1 {
my $num = shift;
print "started thread $num\n";
sleep $num;
print "done with thread $num\n";
return $num;
Source: https://wiki.bc.net/atl-conf/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=20548191
I searched some hours now but did not find an example, how to do this. Would be nice when someone could give me a hint how to start.
Thank you.

Supplying realistically textured 3D city models at ground level promises to be useful for pre-visualizing upcoming traffic situations in car navigation systems. Because this pre-visualization can be rendered from the expected future viewpoints of the driver, the required maneuver will be more easily understandable. 3D city models can be reconstructed from the imagery recorded by surveying vehicles. The vastness of image material gathered by these vehicles, however, puts extreme demands on vision algorithms to ensure their practical usability. Algorithms need to be as fast as possible and should result in compact, memory efficient 3D city models for future ease of distribution and visualization. For the considered application, these are not contradictory demands. Simplified geometry assumptions can speed up vision algorithms while automatically guaranteeing compact geometry models. In this paper, we present a novel city modeling framework which builds upon this philosophy to create 3D content at high speed.
Objects in the environment, such as cars and pedestrians, may however disturb the reconstruction, as they violate the simplified geometry assumptions, leading to visually unpleasant artifacts and degrading the visual realism of the resulting 3D city model. Unfortunately, such objects are prevalent in urban scenes. We therefore extend the reconstruction framework by integrating it with an object recognition module that automatically detects cars in the input video streams and localizes them in 3D. The two components of our system are tightly integrated and benefit from each other's continuous input. 3D reconstruction delivers geometric scene context, which greatly helps improve detection precision. The detected car locations, on the other hand, are used to instantiate virtual placeholder models which augment the visual realism of the reconstructed city model.

9742/6 xvmc and xv with 8800gtx
Hi all,
I am having a major problem with my 8800 gtx and Xv/XvMC:
(II) NVIDIA(0): Setting mode "1920x1440"
(--) NVIDIA(0): No video decoder detected
(II) Loading extension NV-GLX
(II) NVIDIA(0): NVIDIA 3D Acceleration Architecture Initialized
The first line after the resolution setting is the problem; in addition xdpyinfo shows the Xvideo-MotionCompensation missing with the 8800 (even though it gets initialised ealier in the Xorg.0.log). I do not get this with the same 9746 drivers with a 6800GT plugged in - Xv and XvMC both work fine with the older card.
Could I have bought a "budget" card by mistake without an XvMC support?
Strangely plain old Xv works with xine and mplayer with the 8800, but in mythtv neither "Standard" or "Standard XvMC" work at all (I get sound but a black screen when trying to watch TV or recordings). Everything works with both Xv and XvMC when the 6800GT is plugged in.
2xOpteron 252
6800GT or 8800GTX
Gentoo, 64-bit kernel:
Linux beast 2.6.18-gentoo-r3 #3 SMP Thu Dec 21 09:51:04 GMT 2006 x86_64 AMD Opteron(tm) Processor 252 GNU/Linux
Driver 9746
Re: 9742/6 xvmc and xv with 8800gtx
BTW, I have Composite disabled, just a basic config - do I have to disable GLX to get any kind of video acceleration?
If you want me post a debug log I can, however everything that I can see in system logs looks normal apart from that bit about the video decoder not being found
Anyone else with an 8800GTX having Xv/XvMC problems? I'd like to know!
Re: 9742/6 xvmc and xv with 8800gtx
Maybe I should rephrase this:
Is anyone using an 8800GTX and having *no* problems with XV and XVMC?
Re: 9742/6 xvmc and xv with 8800gtx
XvMC is not currently supported on the 8800. Xv should work fine.
Re: 9742/6 xvmc and xv with 8800gtx
Thanks Aaron,
Plain Xv works great with xine/mplayer, but with mythtv I get a black screen when trying to watch tv or recorded programs (mpeg2 format). The sound plays, just no video.
When will XvMC be supported on 8800? Is it being worked on at all?
Re: 9742/6 xvmc and xv with 8800gtx
If the same video works in Mplayer and not in MythTV, then that sounds like a MythTV bug.
I'm afraid I can't comment on feature schedules.
Re: 9742/6 xvmc and xv with 8800gtx
Has anyone gotten a resolution on this? It's been driving me nuts all weekend. Am I to assume that the 8800 won't do MythTV????
Van Holland
Re: 9742/6 xvmc and xv with 8800gtx
Yes, it looks this way with the current driver, since XvMC isn't yet supported on 8800 and Xv seems broken in myth with this card.
I find it very odd that it works *perfectly* with my 6800GT and the *very same* drivers - a direct hardware swap.
It's a right royal PITA!
Re: 9742/6 xvmc and xv with 8800gtx
I did the exact same thing, swapping out my 7800 this morning. I'd still like confirmation that MythTV and the 8800 are broken if NVidia can provide it. I'll also ask on MythTV-Users but this is really NVidia's problem.
Thanks for the response.
Van Holland
Re: 9742/6 xvmc and xv with 8800gtx
It looks like a problem with MythTV as well.
In the playback settings you can choose libmpeg2, Xv, XvMC etc for video playback. Obviously XvMC isn't supported yet by the drivers, but none of the other methods work either (even standard)
Re: 9742/6 xvmc and xv with 8800gtx
It is not a problem with Myth. The driver is broken. You can read the details about it at mythtv ticket trac.
Re: 9742/6 xvmc and xv with 8800gtx
Thanks guys. I've identified the problem and filed bug 288732.

Judges knew this year's Rose of Tralee winner, Maria Walsh, was gay prior to her publicly coming out: "Rose festival managing director Anthony O'Gara said the organisers were '100% delighted with her' as Rose and the fact that she was gay was neither here nor there. Asked on Radio Kerry if the judges were aware she was gay, Mr O'Gara answered: 'I would think they were, but I certainly didn't go there with them — they're very astute people.' He said Maria, 27, was openly gay, but the judges were no more interested in her sexuality than he was and it would not be their business to question it one way or the other."

If you want to understand why Republicans are likely to win back the Senate despite not really representing the economic interests of the middle class and most of the population......all you have to do is read the other by-line in this blog about the New York Times (the mouthpiece of the liberal elites) referring to thug and burglar Michael Brown as an "angel". Middle America is so sick and tired of these snarky East and Wesst Coast liberals and their endless contempt for them while they glorify all the (non-white) people who are destroying the country that they have decided it is time for payback, even if they hurt their own economic interests by doing so....

LOL @ "....all the (non-white) people who are destroying the country...."
May as well. The "(non-white)" Americans helped to build this country: Native American Indians, Blacks, Mexicans and Chinese. Yeah, let's tear the motha' down!

If those ISIS (escaped souls from the place of ALL evil) terrorists behead a wonman on video, the world will go ballistic. They deserve whatever they will get to be sent back to the place of all evil for all time and you know what it takes to get sent back, the force of the good on the tip of a missle.

Ummm RICK: that "liberal elitist mouthpiece" said he as NO angel. That kind of flies in the face of your "argument", or should I say your diatribe against the "non-white people who are destroying the country". Although it is refreshing to see you rail against something other than effeminate guys and transgendered people for a change. You really have been in a rut lately aiming your crazy rants at them exclusively, so it's good to see the meds have kicked in and have helped you spread your sunshine to other minority groups. You had the needle stuck in the groove for a while. You know, even the old bigot Archie Bunker evolved and became more tolerant of others over the years. Maybe you should catch a re-run and learn a little.

SHUTTER ISLAND was good to read, The movie was a mess and disappointing. Making a series is much like that famous attempt to make silk purses out of hog's ears--or at least before irony was understood and people started taking Yoko Ono seriously as an artist.

Huh, did not see Gregory Brown as an alias of Rick. But what do you know.
Also, Rick saying something stupid, racist and unsubstantiated? It must be a Tuesday.

GO KNEE DEFENDER!! As someone who travels frequently, there is NOTHING more rude than someone putting his or her seat back during a flight. I NEVER put my seat back. It ruins the flight for the person seated behind you and totally encroaches on his or her knee room. I am totally getting one.

Is it too much for me to wish that Douglas McAuthur McCain was somehow related to John "Bomb 'Em All" McCain?

Rick: You should learn to read, the NYT describes Michael Brown as no angel, wich is troublesome because no matter who he was, he didn't deserved to be shooted the way he was
