FreeBSD on AMD64
First, a word of encouragement for the coders... THANKS for even being aware of FreeBSD! I appreciate the efforts you all have put forth to make my favorite OS work with my favorite video cards!
My question is, are you working on a 64-bit clean version for AMD64 on FreeBSD? I know that there are huge problems since the AMD64 kernel does not support loadable modules (at least "NOT_YET"). This starts a chain of events which includes no Linux (32-bit OR 64-bit) binary compatibility, which I imagine has put a halt to further development.
Might I suggest (as a long-time nVidia buyer -- I recommend your products in all the bid specs I write for my school) taking advantage of the unique opportunity you have to be the first kid on the block with BSD 64-bit clean code for video cards?
It is my considered opinion that AMD64 systems will take off like wildfire, and what with SCO's frivolous lawsuit interest in *BSD will continue to grow.
You might sell a lot of video cards -- certainly enough to justify paying your programmers a few hours' overtime! And who can count the intangible value of all the goodwill you would generate in the BSD/AMD64 community?!
// Joe
Is there a document describing the overall status of FreeBSD/x86-64? You say that the kernel doesn't currently support loadable modules, do you have (or can point us (as in the forum members) to) more information on this?
The "official" homepage of the FreeBSD/AMD64 Project can be found at:
(which doesn't really say much about the status, except to give the impression that AMD64 is "Fully Supported").
From My Own Experience dep't
I built a dual-Opteron on an MSI KT8 motherboard, with the intention of using it as a mail server, web server and internet gateway for my school. About 1 month later, here I sit, using it at this very moment.
2x Opteron 2400 mp
1GB DDR memory
600 GB software RAID (using vinum, which I managed to compile!)
I've been testing it under load, really beating the crap out of it. It laughs at my feeble attempts to load it. This thing is REALLY fast. Almost fast enough to render Open-GL screensavers in realtime with the default nv driver (Non-GL). But not quite.
The only things that I found missing (other people will find many more) is GL driver support for the nVidia card (5900) and I can't get Sun's JDK to compile. Once I do that, I can compile OpenOfficeOrg 1.1 and have a full workstation for office uses, Graphic uses and audio. All 64-bit and insanely fast.
If a 50-yo old fart like myself can get this far with AMD64, think what the rest of the world can do. I've always been a year or two ahead of the curve. I don't think my acceptance of AMD64 is any different. While Intel plays catch-up, AMD will be pumping out LOTS of systems, and the MoBos will only get better.
// Joe
Tier 1 without support for loadable modules wouldn't help third-party driver development; where could one read up on the technical details behind this limitation?
You can google for it but won't find much, even in groups. I think the general problem is that FreeBSD/AMD64 is Very New. It works -- all the big bugs are ironed out. I think the committers decided it was in the best interests of everyone involved to do a MS-style release: As soon as it boots without a blue screen, put it on the store shelves!
I don't disagree totally with this philosopy for bleeding-edge technology -- it allows the curious (like myself) to play with an almost-ready-for-prime-time state-of-the-art set of CPUs to see what the future holds.
The nice thing about AMD64 is it covers my butt: I could always revert to FreeBSD i386 with the same machine and still have a noticeable improvement over the single-cpu P-III /1ghz machine it's replacing. Fortunately, it seems I won't have to. The missing pieces are not show stoppers (vinum would have been, but my persistence paid off) -- they're just "Nice To Have".
There is a broad hint in line 29 of the kernel config (/usr/src/sys/amd64/conf/GENERIC) which says "makeoptions NO_MODULES=not_yet", which leads me to believe that kld modules are planned for the future. But I'm not holding my breath.
I will say this... I "Needed" to use Vinum. It's usually a module. It only took me 3 days to fool around and succeed in compiling it into the kernel as an included, static part of the kernel. An I know NOTHING about C programming.
From what I can gather, if something can be loaded as a module, it can be also be compiled into the kernel. I'll also add that I could NEVER successfully compile a Linux kernel, but my experience with BSD has been quite positive (for a USER-NOT-A-DEVELOPER). The word I've heard from Developers (people other than me who can look at C source code and not get a migraine) is that BSD is easy to write for -- everything is in a standard location, and the existing codebase is Very Well Documented.
Nice chatting!
// Joe
Assuming that it is technically possible to link the NVIDIA driver code into the core kernel (it may not be), the solution really wouldn't be realistic from a licensing and/or maintenance point of view. I seriously doubt an effort will be made to support FreeBSD/x86-64 without support for loadable modules (there may be other technical obstacles as well).
It doesn't appear to me to be necessary to make the driver a part of the core kernel to be distributed with the release. In fact it is my understanding that there are one or two kernel modules that require downloading from a commercial site after validating and jumping through whatever flaming hoops the IP owner insists upon, whether the code is to be used as a module or as part of a monolithic kernel.
Oh! I just noticed something... are we talking about the same CPU? I'm using AMD Opterons, not Intel anything... I'm saying AMD64 and you're saying x86-64. Are they two different things, or are they different names for the same thing? Please forgive my ignorance, I'm new to this whole 64-bit thing.
Of course if I boot with the 32-bit OS, everything is perfect. But I'd rather not have to dual boot to run a screensaver. Or a video editing program. But, try as I might, I can't make any 32-bit code execute with the 64-bit kernel -- if I could, then the problem would be moot!
Thanks for your patience and civility with me!
// Joe
We're talking about the same platform, I just prefer x86-64 over amd64 since it describes the architecture better and seems more reasonable considering Intels latest offerings. I'm not sure if the kernel component of the NVIDIA driver could be linked into the kernel proper (it's rather large), but even if it was possible from a technical and legal point of view, I wouldn't consider it a viable solution.
Back to the kernel, you raise a key issue. Developers vs. Users.
The good developer wants to make clean, compact code, no matter how long it takes -- even if it means "never".
The user wants it NOW, regardless of how big, ugly and kludgy it is. Mr Gates owes his billions to realizing that, and acting appropriately on it.
I would presume that best practice lies somewhere in between the two conflicting mindsets.
For my part, I'd be perfectly fat, dumb and happy compiling some huge blob of code into my kernel. It's already 6+ meg -- what's a few more meg going to hurt? You see, for ME (I don't speak for anyone else), for ME, compiling a large piece of code into MY kernel IS viable. For me. Not necessarily for anyone else. Even if it makes my dog go bald and the neighbor's cat start singing opera.:D
As I recall from a few years ago, space in the Linux Kernel is precious because it has to fit on a floppy (or was that overcome several versions ago?), but BSD has no such limitation that I am aware of.
Here's an interesting thought/question... OS-X for the Mac G5. The G5 is a 64-bit extension to a 32-bit architecture, just like the current AMD64 and the proposed future Intel Xeon-64. OS-X is a BSD kernel. What's the 64-bit driver status there?
Warmest regards!
// Joe
Perhaps you mean the Itanium? it has been out for five years, the IA64-II is probably what you mean, this is not a processor for even the mainstream generation of servers, it is EXPENSIVE and from what i have seen performs pretty badly unless you restructure every single line of code, Intel does not have the authority to make companies do that anymore...
Or perhaps you mean the Ia32-e? The cpu that implemented some of the parts of the AM-64 arch but forgot the most important part?
There are kernels for AM-64 for all versions of linux and BSD that are stable...
It would be an interesting question if it wasn't for the fact that the G5 uses a 32bit interpreter to execute the code, the Intel Xeon-64 will never exist and the AMD64 have had it's own kernel for BSD for months...
Regarding the linux kernel, that is a warning you get if your kernel exceeds 1.44 mb (in 2.4 kernels, in 2.5 and later you will not even get the warning) that was it... so, wrong on that too...
So you have absolutely no clue about any of this, i suggest you read before you write...
As to Intel, perhaps I was misled by the news items I read last week about Intel announcing a future Xeon-based CPU with 64-bit extensions.
Perhaps when you read my initial question, you missed what I asked, so here it is again, in a nutshell:
Is there any work going on at nVidia to provide an AMD64 64-bit video driver which could be compiled into the 5.2 or -CURRENT 64-bit FreeBSD kernel? (That kernel does not support modules, so Linux-compatibility mode and kld modules are out of the question.)
Thanks again for your information. You helped me see more clearly.
// Joe
IE that means that every driver has to fit inside EBDA too, which would suck for servers with RAID, LVM, and several GB E drivers along with standard drivers and filesystems... it would be impossible to implement...
I have to look into this a bit more, but it has to be a temp solution...
The CPU you are thinking of is probably the ia32-e, it does not implement any of the per page permissions, so i consider the ia32-e a second rate CPU...
Actually rereading Theos mail makes me realize that it will not only not implement any 64-bit permissions, it will not implement any 32bit permissions either... WIDE OPEN...
Hopefully they are working on that though... Theos cpu was pre-production so maybe some of it will be implemented in the finished work, time will tell...

Achievements of Operations
BAAS International Group (BIG) is the current contractor for Riyadh Dry Port and is responsible for handling container movement and delivery thereby increasing commerce and trade in the capital city Riyadh of Saudi Arabia. BAAS International Group(BIG) has the unique distinction of being the 1st Dry Port in the world to implement NAVIS N4 2.3 as the terminal operating system. Also Riyadh Dry Port is the 1st Dry Port and 5th in the World to implement N4 2.3 + SAP + Psilog Techlogix Wi-Fi. This would enable all the shipping lines and agents in the world to track their containers online and also record online movement of containers once it has entered at Riyadh Dry Port. NAVIS N4 has three main parts-
N4 is primarily used for Data Entry and Report Generation. BIG has access to Saudi EDI Website and can download all EDI information related to container movement before the vessel arrives at Dammam King Abdul Aziz Sea Port. This downloaded EDI information can be uploaded in NAVIS N4 system without any manual intervention. N4 has highly configurable EDI and it can be uploaded in any standard formats. This data can be used for report generation for all shipping lines and agents. These reports can be customized to specific user requests pertaining to their native systems for easier transfer and upload of reports. N4 currently supports the internationally recognized formats of reports like CODECO, COARRI and BAPLIE. Currently China Shipping Line (CSL), OOCL and Hanjin lines and using the CODECO reports being generated by N4 system. All the reports are sent to shipping lines and agents every day by 9 A.M. Also whenever requests are sent from the shipping lines regarding container movement BIG's planning team responds to their requests without any delay. N4's Rail Options provide for advanced monitoring and management of rail operations. BIG has utilized these rail Options to track and locate containers irrespective of the location, Dammam or Riyadh. BIG have offices in both King Abdul Aziz Sea Port in Dammam where the loading of containers is recorded on wagons and the movement is tracked intermediate between Dammam and Riyadh. Finally when the train reaches Riyadh these containers are offloaded from wagons and the movement along with the location is monitored using Wireless Psilog Techlogix equipment. This offers all the shipping lines with better monitoring and movement of containers.
BIG has vastly utilized Sparcs N4 system foundation which is built on highly scalable fault tolerant architecture based upon the latest J2EE design concepts, advanced metadata driven model and highly configurable business rules. BIG's SPARCS N4 is designed to meet specific needs with system options that involve advanced configuration, customization and integration. Standard options offer full configurability and flexibility of SPARCS N4.
XPS is another powerful module that BIG has utilized for its planning and yard utilization. With effective planning and utilization BIG can handle atleast 20% more containers in the same area than previous contractors. The current yard capacity can be put to use more efficiently than earlier. This was clearly evident in the month of May when BIG reached a highest of 26,000 TEU's container movement than ever before since the inception of Riyadh Dry Port in 1982. Saudi Railways Organization SRO has acknowledged this as the revenue earned in the month of May was the highest in the past 25 years. With BIG"s experienced planning all the yard assignments are made automatically and are subject to the ease of equipment being handled by the operators leading to efficient utilization of yard space, efficient movemet and reduced operating costs. Each container is assigned to its optimal position based upon the business rules and constraints of the terminal providing a much higher utilization of the yard space, up to 90% of reduction in re handles and enhanced equipment utilization. SPARCS N4 also provides configurable planning and control user interface, an easy to use yard Editor, advanced holds and permissions management. When a container arrives at Riyadh Dry Port there will be 3 types of holds applicable on the containers. The 1st hold is to determine if the freight charges have been paid or not, the 2nd hold is to subject to Customs inspection and the 3rd hold for payment of Container Charges Report and Port Charges Report.
BIG's facility planning and control offers complete management of rail operations for terminals. A Detailed Yard model, graphical yard views and real time yard planning are all a part of the advanced system implemented by BIG. Efficiently choreograph real time container moves among container handling equipment operators with Equipment Control. All these are a part of ECN 4 module. ECN 4 also offers plan, view and check container movement and container planning and control. Inspection of rail roads and discharges on and off rail are a part of the control. Advanced rail options automatically plan rail loads based on the suer defined requirements. As a part of this BIG's planning team can determine which containers to be moved in which locations before the arrival of the wagons carrying different types of containers. BIG has 2 gates configured, In Gate to record incoming Trucks for delivery of containers and Empty Gate to record arrival of Empty containers to be loaded back to Dammam once the consignee has cleared his cargo. BIG has also implemented Reefer tracking, monitoring and control 24X7. Any breakdown of reefer container is monitored by the reefer technician who informs the planning team and necessary actions like cross stuffing of cargo takes places to minimize the effect of the damage. BIG's implementation of SPRACS N4, XPS and Equipment control has led to better truck management in the terminal. The truck turnaround time which was earlier close to 2 hours has been reduced to less than 10 minutes subject to customs inspection and cargo clearance. BIG's has enabled Riyadh Dry Port attain highest standards in terms of operations management, yard utilization, powerful and flexible reporting, hazardous detail, Inventory, Event and reporting management. BAAS International Group has implemented the world's leading ERP solutions provider SAP to support its Terminal Operating System NAVIS. SAP provides Human Resource Management, Sales and Distribution and Financial Administration to Riyadh Dry Port. All the billing details are recorded in SAP. Freight charges are collected at Dammam before the container arrives at Riyadh Dry Port. Container Charges and Port Charges are collected once the container has actually arrived at Riyadh Dry Port. This provides more transparent and flexible billing as compared to billing followed by previous port contractors. All the shipping lines and agents are sent invoices for each and every container billed and hence the transparency. Reports generated from SAP for billings are detailed in every way bill number and this provides a clear amount of revenue generated to SRO. Employee salary details and other expenses are calculated in SAP using Human Resource Management module.
SAP provides all the billing details to every clearing agent and once the amount is paid at the bank, the total amount of revenue generated is calculated at the end of every day. Weekly and monthly reports from SAP determine the health and the statistics of Riyadh Dry Port. SAP plays a supporting role to the Terminal Operating System NAVIS.
The overall objectives of the Department is to Service and Maintain our fleet of equipment i.e. supporting the Operations Department through the availability of the Container Handling Equipment. The Operations department also enjoy the support from the eleven Reefer Technicians who monitor the condition of the Reefer cargos on a 24 hrs basis reporting to the Operations Manager.
Our company owned Equipment consists of the following:
FUNCTIONS Number of Equiptments
Psilog Techlogix Wireless are installed in Riyadh Dry Port and these enable all the Radio Data Terminals (RDT's), Vehicle Mounted Terminals (VMT's) and Hand Held Devices to communicate with NAVIS SPARCS N4 system in recording the movement and location of containers. All the Straddle Carriers, Reach Stackers and Trucks are installed with these equipments and the controlling happens with the Equipment Control Department in NAVIS.
With these latest Innovative technologies and path breaking equipments BAAS International Group can be proclaim of having achieved the distinction of being the only Dry Port in Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to start NAVIS N4 2.3 + SAP + Psilog Techlogix E
Riyadh Dry Port is now being hailed as one of the ports around the world that are using advance container management system (NAVIS)-is likewise on the road to improving and strengthening safety awareness to all its personnel, clients and stakeholders, Today, governed by our relentless efforts and support from the management, we already have begun several safety programs inside Riyadh Dry Port.
Reduce rate of preventable accidents through employees' education about workplace hazards and available control measures.
Adhere to local and international safety standards by complying local and international safety laws and regulations.
Increase safety awareness among employees by conducting safety seminars, trainings and tool box talks.
Prioritize Safety, Health and Environment issues above other activities, focusing primarily on safety of employees.

Tech round-up: Gaerne's 50th anniversary shoes, Velobici jerseys salute 1948 heroes, Brooks B17 special edition, Rapha likes it hot, Bellelli trailers, Sponser nutrition, SRAM Red how-to videos, Polisport awards
Shiny shoes, new jerseys, helpful videos, beautiful saddles and more

Gaerne marks 50th birthday with light, shiny new G-Chrono shoes
Italian shoemaker Gaerne is celebrating its fiftieth anniversary this year and to mark the occasion here's some very shiny, very light and very trick new shoes: the G-Chrono line-up.
Claimed weight is a not-very-heavy 275g per shoe thanks to a carbon sole and BOA L dual-reel closure. Gaerne say the BOA system also makes for a cooler shoe because you don't have gert Velcro straps over the top of the foot impeding airflow. We just like the clicky noise it makes.
Also keeping the air flowing are mesh inserts in the microfibre uppers and Gaerne's new anatomical 'Light Wind Tongue', which frankly sounds a bit rude.
While the front of your foot is being tongued, the heel is held in place by a new injection-moulded carbon anatomic heel-cup, shaped to help reduce Achilles tendon aggravation and fited with grippy liner to keep your heel in place. A reflective insert on the rear helps keep you visible.
It's all built on a thin, full carbon fibre sole with built-in ventilation channels and rubber pieces on the outside so you are slightly less likely to land on your bum while walking. There's also a new-design ultra-lightweight insole.
The G-Chrono is avalable in white, black, blue, or red and will hit the shops shortly. It'll cost under £300, according to Hotlines - not cheap but in the ballpark for high-end, Italian-made shoes.
For more info see UK importer Hotlines or Gaerne
Velobici new jerseys salute Godwin and Maitland
Leicestershire clothing maker Velobici have announced two new jerseys, paying tribute to 1948 Olympic track and road heroes Tommy Godwin and Bob Maitland.
Tommy Godwin has been involved in the creation of the new jerseys and on his recommendation the Bob Maitland is grey with white short sleeves to reflect Bob's style of wearing darker clothes, and the Tommy Godwin is beige with black short sleeves.
Both are made in the UK and are entirely seamless with a quarter zip, a rear drop back hem, rear buttoned ride pocket and are made from 100% organic extra fine, high quality Merino wool from South Africa.
The rear pocket also has a purl stitch Union flag to reflect Olympic glory and each hem has the rider's name embroidered on it. A specially commissioned swing tag accompanies each jersey to give the wearer an overview of the riders' palmares.
In addition to many national and international achievements, Tommy won two bronze medals at the Herne Hill Velodrome in the 1948 London Olympics and plays an active role in the ongoing campaign to help secure the site's future. He was particularly well known for his coaching skills and bike shop on Silver Street in King's Heath, where many future stars were introduced to cycling. He will carry the 2012 Olympic Torch through his home town and celebrates his 92nd birthday this year.
Bob Maitland, who sadly passed away in 2010, rode well into his 80s and was still winning late in to his career, which started in 1939. He won the national championship twice, set numerous distance records, rode for both Hercules and BSA as a professional and was part of the first ever British team to ride the Tour de France in 1955. In the 1948 London Olympic Games, he was the best placed British rider in the road race (coming in 6th), helping his team secure a silver medal.
Velobici's Chris Puttnam said, "It's a real honour to be able to name these jerseys after two of the UK's greatest ever riders. Tommy has been so helpful, suggesting which jersey best reflects his and Bob's own styles, and we took inspiration for the Union flag detailing from one he wore in the 1940s. He's a fantastic guy and we are delighted he likes the finished product so much. We hope today's road and track riders will enjoy wearing a little piece of history."
The jerseys retail at £145.
For more details see Velobici.
Brooks launch B17 Select World Traveller 2012 Limited Edition Saddle
In an attempt on the prestigious record for the world's longest saddle name, the leathermeisters at Brooks have introduced a special edition of the classic B17, called (deep breath) Brooks B17 Select World Traveller 2012 Limited Edition Saddle. Phew.
The new saddle celebrates Brooks' historical associations with the sporting heroes of the 1948 London Olympiad. That's a piece of 'getting your brand associated with the Olympics' that should get under LOCOG's radar seeing as the custodians of London's 11 billion quid boondoggle haven't sold the rights to the middle of last century to MacDonalds as far as we're aware.
The 'WorldTraveller' bit of the name refers to Brooks' relationship with the inaugural WCR Grand Tour (www.worldcycleracing.com), a competitive circumnavigation of the Earth by bicycle.
The leather surface features a restyling of a piece by Frank Patterson, artist and illustrator of the Brooks catalogues of the 1920's, realized by Richard Phipps. All saddles have been made using Brooks Select organic leather tops, fixed to a chromed copper steel frame and finished with hand hammered copper rivets. The B17 Select World Traveller is available at chosen Brooks Dealers Of Excellence from May, and production of the Brooks B17 Select World Traveller has been capped at 2012 pieces.
Rapha likes it hot
Just in time for the weather to finally turn warm and sunny, Rapha has launched the Super-Lightweight Jersey for riding and drinking coffee in very hot weather. It's made from three synthetic fabrics developed exclusively for Rapha, and the company says it's suitable for days when their Lightweight Sportwool Jersey is too heavy.
The jersey's main fabric is designed to be comfortable against the skin even when you're sweating and to dry quickly. It's treated to stop it getting smelly and the middle rear pocket is designed to carry a water bottle.
You'll also find other standard Rapha jersey features such as set-in sleeves, a stand-up two-piece collar and a zipped valuables pocket. The patterns are all based on the St. Raphaël trade team colours of red, white and blue.
Tow it along with a Bellelli trailer from Halfords
Need to carry a bit more than you can cram into panniers – or don't have any way of fitting them? Halfords has announced two new trailers, the Bellelli B-Tourist Bike Shopping Trailer and Bellelli Eco Max Bike Trailer, available from Halfords.com.
The £59.99 Eco Max trailer attaches to the seatpost and can be detached so you can use it as a hand trailer too. Its main body is made from shatterproof plastic and has a capacity of 60 litres or 35kg. Halfords says it'll take 35 bags of sugar or three full shopping bags.
With a steel frame and a multi-compartment fabric bag, the B-Tourist trailer is a rather more posh affair for popping down to Waitrose or heading out for a picnic. Capacity is 25kg. Like the Eco Max it can be towed by hand when off the bike.
Sample Sponser nutrition for a tenner
Swiss sports nutrition company Sponser has released a new sample pack, the Sponser Bottle Pack, for £9.99 including postage.
The pack includes a 750ml Sponser water bottle and try-out sized packs of:
- Sponser Competition sports drink, orange flavour, 60g (one serving). Sponser Competition is intended to provide optimum fluid replacement with maximum energy density.
- Sponser Long Energy Competition, 60g (one serving) A sports drink for endurance events with 5% protein in peptide form.
- Sponser High Energy Bar, apricot-vanilla, 45g (one bar). An energy bar with 10% protein and BCAA.
- Sponser Protein Snack Bar, chocolate-caramel, 50g (one bar). A protein and carbohydrate recovery bar. It contains 16g of protein from multiple sources.
- Sponser Liquid Energy, light honey, one 70g tube (two servings). A highly concentrated, light honey flavoured energy gel in a unique easy to open and close tube.
SRAM videos help you set up new Red
Component maker SRAM has released three new videos offering mechanical help to folks lucky or affluent enough to have the 2012 edition of the top-end Red group (or RED as SRAM insist on rather shoutily calling it).
Aimed at owners, dealers and mechanics, the videos compare the set up details of the 2012 Red gear with the previous incarnation. "New technologies need special attention!" says SRAM's Geraldine Bergeron. And who are we to argue?
There's a few seconds of marketing wibble at the start of each one, but bear with it as the how-to is done well. Nice to see that the videos have subtitles too.
Here's the instructions for the Red Double Tap shifters:
The video for the front and rear derailleurs:
And the how-to for the brakes:
Polisport wins iF awards
Portuguese accessories manufacturer Polisport has picked up a couple of iF Design awards from the International Forum Design Hannover. Its Corky water bottle was recognised for use of organic material and the Guppy baby seat won a product design award.
The Guppy fits bicycles with and without a rack. It offers easy fixing (with tools included) and a button for quick release of the baby seat. A front fixing 'mini' version is available for smaller babies.
More details from Today's Cyclist.
got to say the halfords trailer is a cool idea. and the right price. could get a few more cars off the road for journeys that you are forced to do in the car

Reporting from "the land[s] of the shattered," Sacco always offers readers a complex and intimate portrayal of everyday experience. Here he calls attention to the mixture of the prosaic and the violent in Soba's life. The first terrifying pages of "Soba!," set against a black background, chronicle a day on the front lines in which the 27-year-old Sarajevan Muslim replaces the peeled-back scalp of a fellow soldier whose brain is showing, as Serb shelling sends bodies flying through the air.
"Christmas With Karadzic" concerns the on-the-run nationalist Bosnian Serb leader responsible for such atrocities as the 1995 Srebrenica massacre. Amazingly, Sacco and his journalist friends successfully track Karadzic down at an Orthodox Christmas service in 1996. Standing close to the war criminal, Sacco tries unsuccessfully to feel revulsion for "a man I have despised with all my heart for years." Less dark and cluttered than "Soba!," the story suggests the banality of evil while crucially eschewing a moral. Sacco, appropriately for one so riveted to intricate truth, can only note that chasing Karadzic made for his best Christmas in years.

My daughter swims year-round and has recently been getting swimmer's ear. Can these infections be prevented?
- Jovana
Swimmer's ear, or otitis externa, is common in kids who spend a lot of time in the water. Water can sit in the ear canal and lead to irritation and infection of the outer ear.
The good news is that outer ear infections often can be prevented. For starters, your daughter can wear a bathing cap or removable earplugs to help keep the ear canals dry. Or, after getting wet, she can tip her head to the side to let the water drain out. She also can use a hair dryer on a low setting, at least 12 inches away, to dry her ears.
If her ears still aren't drying out, talk to your doctor about using ear drops at the end of a swim to help dry up the water in her ears and prevent infection.
Your daughter should not clean her ears with cotton swabs or put any other objects (like bobby pins) in her ears, which can scratch the skin and allow bacteria or fungi to enter. Ear wax is actually good and can protect against swimmer's ear.
Swimmer's ear can be treated with antibiotics, and your daughter should stay out of the pool while she's recovering. Make sure she uses the antibiotics for as long as the doctor says to, even if she feels better sooner.

"Please touch the exhibits," says a board outside Dylan Martorell's artwork at the Aspinwall House at Fort Kochi. Visitors gladly oblige as each touch of theirs is answered by a different sound – clanging bells, the strum of a tambura, or a deep rumble.
Martorell specialises in "interactive, sound-based, site-specific work" and he has produced a series of works for the Kochi-Muziris Biennale that opened here on Wednesday.
His exhibits incorporate the sounds and smells of Kochi. One of his works has aluminium pots with speakers inside and handfuls of powdered spices on top. As the volume of sound increases, the vibrating speakers send up a cloud of spices that mix together to create a collage of scents. "This is a direct response to my experience of visiting a spice market at Mattancherry," says Martorell, his palms stained yellow by the spices.
Martorell creates music out of trash. Most of the items he has used in his work – aluminium pots, broken clay tiles, plastic bottles, and spices – have been collected from the premises of Aspinwall House. These random objects and a few recorded sounds, put together using Martorell's self-taught robotics skills, make pieces of art that invite the visitor to create their own music.
The Australia-based musician had in July created a similar work with Buddhist monks in Thailand. He taught the monks to collect items and improvise to create music.
In Kochi, the artist, who plays the guitar, the piano and several wind instruments, hopes to engage his audience and encourage them to create music too. He says he would like to work with small groups of children, like he has done at Melbourne where he lives. He is also thinking of setting up a free musical taxi service during the biennale, in which "people get picked up and they play the drums as they get taken to the different biennale sites."
Martorell is eagerly looking forward to this year's edition of the Cochin Carnival on New Year's Eve, and even hopes to pitch in with a performance.

31.05.07 - By John Martinez - boxingrealm.com - Lately, the self proclaimed Worlds greatest trainer Floyd Joy Mayweather Sr. has been a very busy man. He has been tasked with preparing current WBC light heavyweight king Bad Chad Dawson (23,0,15 KOs) for Dawsons first defense of his title against Jesus Chuy Ruiz (19,4,17KOs) on June 9 at the Connecticut Convention Center in Hartford, CT. The fight will air on SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING beginning at 10 PM ET/PT.
In addition to training Dawson, Floyd has been tapped to coach Anthony The Tyger Hanshaw (21,0,1, 14 KOs) for his big fight PPV against Roy Jones Jr. on July 14 in Biloxi, MS. This afternoon, I got a chance to talk with the colorful trainer about his fighters upcoming battles and
oh yeah, I guy named Oscar.
JM: Floyd, how has training Hanshaw been?
FS: Well, today is only the second day that Ive been training him. I can tell you that hes gonna be a much better fighter than he was. See the whole key in beating Roy is to make him go backwards. He cant fight going forwards anymore. He cant throw combinations and he only throws one punch at a time. So what are you gonna do? He dont jab anymore either. The only thing he does is throw a wide hook. Its so wide that you can see it coming from a mile away. He goes around the world when he gets ready to throw it. Ill tell you this; if Glen Johnson knocked out Roy then I know that Hanshaw can.
JM: You think that Hanshaw has the skills and power to stop Roy?
FS: Yes I do. When Im done with Hanshaw he will most definitely have all the skills and power he needs to beat Roy. You know, Roy to me was never an exceptional fighter. He was never like my son. A one-time fighter is rare. Sugar Ray Leonard, Muhammad Ali, Sugar Ray Robinson, and my son. These guys are exceptional.
JM: What are you improving on the most in Hanshaws style?
FS: Well Im helping him with his whole game. I know for a fact that Ive got the know how and Im gonna teach it to him. Really, what the f*ck do I have to even tell him in order to beat Roy? All you got to do to Roy is back his ass up in a corner and beat the sh*t out him. All you need is to jab Roy, back him up, and beat his ass in the corner. Thats it. Listen, Roy has a glass chin and a glass jaw. Man, you could look right through it. Roy was always more athletic than skilled.
JM: Whats the latest with Chads preparations?
FS: Man, Bad Chad is gonna kick that a*s. Chad is ready. I got Chad just perfecting a lot of the stuff that we started doing in our first camp. My understanding right now is, if him and Tarver win on June 9, then theyre set up to go next. You know the way he (Chad) is right now, I believe hes gonna be more explosive. Hes come around a lot and this is only our second camp together.
JM: Id like to ask you to give your thoughts on your sons fight with Oscar. In post fight comments; you seemed to believe that the fight couldve gone either way. What are your thoughts now, and do you believe there should be a rematch?
FS: Well Ill be honest with you. If Oscar wouldve been with me, then he wouldve won. Since that fight, Ive gotten a chance to look at it again and I believe my son rightfully won the fight. Little Floyd was blocking most of those punches from Oscar. Oscar was getting his shots off, but they werent landing. Now Im man enough to say when Im wrong and Im telling you that I was wrong at first.
As far as the rematch goes, I think the only way the fight materializes is if they bring the advertising like they did for the first one and if Floyd Joy Mayweather Sr. is in the equation. Otherwise, the fight wont happen. It has to be great and better than the first one. The only way this could be great is if Im the trainer for Oscar. If that dont happen, then it wont go anywhere because honestly, a lot of people thought that that fight wasnt nothing and this is the only way to make it great.
To be honest with you, I thought Oscar fought good. He just looked like he got tired around the fifth round. I know what happened. He was over trained. Its the same sh*t. Let me ask you, why in the hell did he look like he got tired around the fifth round if he wasnt over trained? Now I just wanna say, I aint talking bad about Freddie or his sickness, Im just saying that I think Oscar looked over trained and I feel that I could forget more about boxing than he (Freddie) could ever learn about it. So, if the fight is to really happen, I need to be in the equation. Oscar wouldve won if he had me that night.
JM: Floyd, thank you for your time. I appreciate you taking time out of your busy schedule to talk with me today.
FS: Thank you.

It entertains millions of viewers a week, creates water cooler fodder after every episode and manages to shift the majority of the country to the edge of its proverbial seat the night before each season finale.
But for some of the show's contestants, judges and staff, the "American Idol" experience is something else entirely, and it's not always pleasant. At times, they claim, the reality competition can be unfair and manipulative, grueling and deceitful.
Now, they're ditching "American Idol" and coming clean.
Paula Abdul bid adieu to "Idol" this week after her manager called the show "rude and disrespectful" for not offering her a formal proposal for a season nine contract. Abdul had served as a judge on the Fox reality competition since it began in 2002. The New York Times reported that "Idol" offered her a 30 percent raise and a total multi-year deal worth more than $10 million to stay. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Abdul wanted $20 million.
"I'll miss nurturing all the new talent, but most of all being a part of a show that I helped from day one become an international phenomenon," Abdul announced on her Twitter feed Tuesday. She declined to elaborate on why she left the show, as did Fox and the show's producers, FremantleMedia North America and 19 Entertainment.
Ju'Not Joyner, a top 20 finalist from "Idol's" past season, hasn't been as tight-lipped. During a Web chat with "Idol" fans last week, Joyner called the competition rigged and claimed the show's producers try to manipulate contestants.
"It's fixed. It's manipulated," Joyner told ABCNews.com afterward, saying that "Idol" spotlights certain contestants producers feel will resonate with the audience and, literally, keeps others in the shadows. "It's scripted; it's not a talent competition. They show you who they want to show, and that's just what it is. They have some people, when they get on stage, lights come out that you didn't even know existed."
But it's not just the favoritism that got to Joyner. He resents "Idol" for making the top 36 contestants rush to sign legal documents, including non-disclosure and compensation forms, and penalizing those who asked questions -- himself included.
"There wasn't even an opportunity for me to review what I signed," Joyner said. "The day we saw the contract, we had to sign the contract. We had to collectively vote on a lawyer out of a selection of three attorneys they presented us -- it was ridiculous."
When Joyner tried to negotiate for more money and asked if his own lawyer could review the contracts, the show's executive producer, Ken Warwick, shot him down.
"He pulled me in his office and said, 'You're not going to ruin my show.' He wouldn't let me say anything. I felt like a child," Joyner said.
Representatives for "American Idol" declined to comment for this story. But Joyner's far from the first contestant to express grievances about "Idol" that go beyond classification as sour grapes. Season two runner-up Clay Aiken and season seven finalist David Hernandez both criticized "Idol's" structure and judging process long after they left its stage.
Season five contestant Ayla Brown told ABCNews.com that behind-the-scenes judgment can sometimes influence a singer's fate more than on-air evaluations or audience votes.

On Remembrance Day, On the Lightness of Our Being
After Taylor Pyatt opened the scoring eight minutes into the first, the Canucks spent the rest of the game trying to make his goal stand up as the game-winner. It almost did.
But, in the final minute, with the net empty, the Sharks blitzed Vancouver, applying heavy pressure and hemming them deep in their own zone. With forty seconds left, Devon Setoguchi tied the game.
The collective groan of Canuck nation could be heard from space (where there's no sound--that's how loud it was). To make matters worse, Patrick Marleau scored three minutes later in overtime.
Fan response was vitriolic, though perhaps none were as vocal as Richard Beach. He went nuts, wrote a scathing letter, and canceled his cable. He was done.
Vancouver fans tore him nearly in half with their mockery, but I found it all a little hypocritical. From where I was sitting, his impetuous rampage was strangely admirable. He was unflinchingly upfront about Vancouver's dirty little secret: we take our hockey way too seriously.
I think we all felt at least a little of what he felt that day; I know I did. I was watching the game alone, and when Marleau scored, I threw the most infantile hissy fit of my adult life. And as I sat there, and the blood rushed back to my brain, bringing perspective with it, I realized how seriously I take this team. It's a fine line between Richard Beach and I.
I tell this story because it's Remembrance Day, and the worst thing that might happen to me today is watching the Canucks lose in Ottawa. What a privilege to give so much import to something so trivial. Only in a country overblessed with freedom. Consider a world where we can take hockey as seriously as we do, primarily because our lives are such that there's little more grave to consider. We devote so much attention to the Canucks, I think we run the risk of forgetting the remarkable price some paid to afford us such lightness of being.
We live in a land so generally unburdened of persecution that the worst hate spewed in our direction will likely come from other hockey fans; a country where the only time most of us use military language is when describing a sports play; a country where the observation of freedom is so constant we run the risk of becoming unbeknownst to it, like water to a fish; a country where a regulation loss in January is the closest we come to the end of the world. It's a remarkable privilege to expend so much emotion on a hockey game.
It's not like this everywhere and it wouldn't be like this here without the sacrifices of the men and women we this day remember.
Lest we forget.

Issue to be taken up at UNWTO assembly
India aware of challenge faced from climate change
Tourism plays an important role in the economy
NEW DELHI: India has said that the United Nations World Tourism Organisation (WTO) should not become an instrument to maintain economic status quo and encourage the use of environmental conditionalities as barriers to international tourism, particularly in developing countries.
Multilateral instrument
"The U.N. Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) has one of the largest number of state parties of any multilateral instrument. It is, therefore, appropriate that matters relating to climate change are addressed in the UNFCCC," Union Tourism Secretary Sheelbhadra Banerjee told the Ministerial Summit on Tourism and Climate Change held at London last week.
At the UNWTO, we need to try and take stock of the situation as it affects our sector and see what can be done to adapt to the inevitability of further global warming, especially as far as developing countries are concerned.
India's objection to the UNWTO declaration to this effect made at Davos has been put on record and would be taken up for adoption at the UNWTO general assembly in Cartegena de Indias, Columbia, later this week and would be presented at the U.N. Climate Change Conference in Bali in December.
Mr. Banerjee said India was acutely aware of the considerable challenge faced from climate change.
High level emissions
"We, like other developing countries, bear an inordinate share of the burden of climate change even though this is due to high level emissions of developing countries. In such circumstances, we must significantly shore up our abilities to cope with and adapt to climate change. To be able to do so, we need development, which is also the best form of adaptation," he said.
Mr. Banerjee said tourism played an extremely important role in the economy of the country and it would like to see this sector deliver on its full potential in assisting with accelerated economic growth and development.
"We are very conscious of the need to promote sustainable development of tourism. Our efforts are aimed at making India an ecologically and socially sensitive tourism destination."

There are many ways of being human. There's no rank order of 'civilizations', cultures, millennia. I am unsure what 'civilization' means, unless you define it by some arbitrary parameters and ascribe those parameters some kind of inherently positive value, just because you fancy them. This may be irritating to dwijas who, after their unfortunate birth in brown-land, were born-again when exposed to White people's world views.
The Indian Union parliamentary elections are an exercise that seek to present an opportunity to the citizens of its territory to determine and influence to a limited extent the nature of the power that will rule over them. Like license renewal, this also relegitimises the power apparatus. Such power, by definition, is all-pervasive in its claimed zone. The intense focus of resources by modern Nation-States on defining, maintaining and controlling territory is not accidental. The smokescreen of people's welfare is used to deploy the non-pretentious forces of a Nation-State — money and military. In uninhabited areas, 'strategic importance' comes handy.
We were born where our mother lay pregnant with us. At birth, we are as human anyone else. Gandhi, Constitution, Tricolour, Delhi are later alien intruders. Is it a pre-condition of being fully human in Indian Union's territory that these specific notions have to be built up within our heads? Bloodlines and human consciousness predates all flags and constitutions and gods willing, will outlive them too. Does one have a right to exist in the land one was born into, to mingle in the society into which one is born or welcomed, live among one's kin without being counted, exercised power upon, demanded loyalty from by institutions like the Nation-State? Institutions that place themselves as mediators of these rights, without being called upon, are inhuman and anti-social. They may be legal, depending on how many guns back up the self-imposed mediator. Justness is different — only the people can create that. No document written in their name can.
You will be counted and classified, even if you never signed up. Lack of 'consciousness' is irrelevant. Institutions that intensively survey uninhabited islands, wrap the remains of the dead in distinct flags, 'teach' loyalty through school syllabi face a problem when they encounter people who regard the State as alien. Many indigenous peoples of Nicobar view Bharat as alien. But they are 'Indian' citizens. Do they respect Gandhi and the Tricolour? Do they believe in 'unity in diversity' — given that their numbers have sharply dwindled ever since they were 'claimed' as 'Indians'. It is from the perspective of the Shompen people of the Great Nicobar island that the all pervasive State starts looking not so pervasive — a hint that there is an outside, even when high resolution maps and detailed anthropological surveys have been done. This 'outside' consciousness is extremely dangerous. Hence, when the Shompen people voted in Indian Union elections for the first time, whatever that act meant, there was a sigh of relief at the deepest heart of the State. A portal to an outside, however small, was technically sealed. To live without certain indoctrinations makes a dynamite of a people, even if you think they don't 'know' it.
I remember a four-panel cartoon. At first, a bear stood in a jungle. Trees disappeared, encroachers arrived. The bear looked on. Finally, everything is 'clean'. Someone is surprised there's a bear inside 'civilization' and asks where it came from. The bear was always there. I am sure they created a 'sanctuary' for the bear thereafter. May be it will start speaking English, stand up when Jana-Gana-Mana plays and sing 'the world will live as one'.

Audio-taped interviews with patients and parents were carried out separately to ensure that parents did not prompt adolescent answers or prevent their children from expressing their feelings. Fourteen adolescent-parent pairs were interviewed. One of the research objectives was to determine whether health-related quality of instruments intended to capture reproductive concerns was sensitive and appropriate for adolescent patients with cancer.
The interview questions ranged from determining understandings about fertility, to asking if one day the participant would like to have a baby, to "do you feel like you can talk with your parents about fertility" and how would the patient feel if she could not have a baby in the future.
"Sixty-four percent of the parents provided answers that were incongruent with how they predicted their child would answer the questions," explained Quinn. "For example, half of the parents who said their daughter did not want to know about risks to fertility posed by cancer and treatment were also incongruent on five or more statements."
The researchers also found that 75 percent of parents who said that their daughters did not worry about having a baby in the future were also incongruent on more than five other questions.
"Overall, parents underestimated their daughters' reproductive concerns," Quinn said. "The majority of adolescents reported a strong desire for future parenthood, whereas parents expected their daughters to be satisfied with survivorship."
The researchers also concluded that health-related quality-of-life surveys used to establish the reproductive concerns of adolescents by parental proxy reporting are "not suitable for capturing specific emotions and feelings that are impacted by ... a life-threatening illness and long-term goals."

I have found the story-telling style and the level of detail contained in the cases to be balanced nicely so that it retains a realism that other case books lack and that reader remains engaged in the outcome of the investigations and the end-point of the case. All in all, these series make for interesting and entertaining reads which ultimately renders them an excellent learning tool." - Medical Student,Trinity College Dublin
"I would be very happy if my medical studetns read this book before an attachment! I think this format is excellent...it encourages the students to think clearly about real patients and not just learn facts in isolation." - Honorary Leturer, University of Leeds
"This book covers a very wide range of material, from neonatal medicine in the sick preterm infant to the teenager who has taken an averdose. It contains a large number of cases which are all relevent to medical student learning...each case study gives details of relevent questions to ask in the history, examination findings and management plans...an excellent resource for final exam revision." - MSc Student, University of Liverpool Medical School
"Fantastic. Very impressed and very easy to read...relevent cases and good layout." - Final Year Student, Warwick Medical School
