One of the coolest additions to Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire is a certain Pokémon that can mega evolve without having to hold a mega stone. It's also a tweak that kind of breaks said Pokémon. »
This weekend, video game matches at the Pokémon World Championships saw the usual suspects. There was Garchomp. Aegislash. Mega Charizard. Just to name a few. But the championships also saw the delightful inclusion of Pachirisu, a Pokémon used by Masters champion Se Jun Park. »

I'm a newbie in c++ and openGL so keep in mind that my coding skills are not top notch but I'm a quick learner.
So,because my favorite puzzle is the Rubik's Cube,I decided to unleash my creativity so now I'm currently making a 3D Rubik's Cube and I'm representing each cubie piece(26 pieces excluding the core piece) individually using quads.(planning to use textures in the future after I learn how to use them)
Right now I'm able to rotate the camera around using glRotatef and see the whole cube.
The main problem I have stumbled upon is rotating each face by its own and also keeping track of the cubies to determine which faces they now belong to which will also determine if they will be affected if the face rotated.
At this point I have realized that using glRotatef will bring no good in moving forward so I searched around and found out about Quaternions so I have read a bunch of tutorials about them but I have no idea how to implement them and use them.
This is the last tutorial I have been reading:
My request would be a very simple example on how to implement it and use it in my display function.
As for keeping track of the cubies,I'm currently thinking of using 6 booleans for each piece to determine their position through the center pieces.
If you have any other better ideas or concepts on managing face rotations please do tell.

SPIRIT DSP, the world's #1 voice and video over IP engines provider serving more than 1 billion users in 100+ countries, has announced today that Indian telecom operator Infotel, a subsidiary of Reliance Group, one of India's top three private sector business houses with annual turnover of more than $60 billion, has licensed TeamSpiritTM Voice&Video Engine Mobile.
Reliance intends to invest $10 billion in its LTE network and has turned to SPIRIT's software products for voice and video calls over LTE instead of waiting for phone makers who are slow in offering handsets transmitting voice and video in 4G networks. The lack of mobile devices supporting VoLTE (Voice-over-LTE) drives a growing number of carriers to implement a software-only product, which is more flexible, scalable and offers a quicker time to market. SPIRIT engines plays a key role in providing HD voice and video quality as a part of IMS/RCS service infrastructure on popular Android and iOS smartphones and tablet PCs, as well as PCs with Mac OS or Windows.
By using SPIRIT engines, Reliance will be able to offer its subscribers high-quality services as an alternative to Skype over cellular networks and attract new high-value subscribers that used services from other operators and commercial OTT service providers.
"While the number of LTE networks is growing, the quantity of mobile devices models supporting VoLTE is extremely small. LTE phones and tablets mainly support only data transmission over an LTE modem, while voice and video are going via 2G/3G network. It's an akward situation for mobile operators who had hoped that phone OEMs would flood the market with 4G LTE-ready phones," said SPIRIT's VP Alex Kravchenko. "Carriers in dozens of countries now plan to or already deploy VVoIP services under their own brands in an effort to stop subscribers from switching to OTT providers, such as Skype, Viber and WhatsApp. The TeamSpirit software engines enable the transmission of voice and video packets via LTE modems and help operators use mobile devices available in today's market. Reliance's decision to follow the growing trend is a good example of carriers' flexibility to create their own competitive services faster. It's The Fastest who wins in today highly competitive technology world, not The Biggest one."
About TeamSpirit Voice and Video Engine
TeamSpirit Voice&Video Engines support both RCS-e and VoLTE. The engines include resource-efficient HD voice and video codecs, echo and noise cancelling (AEC), automatic voice and video rate selection (ARS), packets delays mitigation, speech enhancement, network adaptation, voice and video synchronization, a dozen of standard digital telephony functions and more, in addition to a dozen of ITU-T standard G.7xx and H.26x codecs included in the engine. SPIRIT also offers its own industry leading patented IP-MR™ (IETF 6262) adaptive and error-resilient HD voice codec that has been selected by Tier1 telecom operators to deliver HD voice to dozens of millions of their subscribers. TeamSpirit uses H.264SVC and VP8 video codecs. TeamSpirit Voice&Video Conferencing Engine is an additional server-side module bringing all the power of TeamSpirit's robust high-quality calling to centralized multi-point communication scenarios.
TeamSpirit Conferencing powers SPIRIT's VideoMostTM software for massively multipoint videoconferencing. SPIRIT video engines are available on Windows, Mac, iOS, Android and allow users of smartphones, tablets and notebooks across different OSs to make video calls from iPhone to Android smartphones to PC, as well as participate in HD videoconferencing with automatic quality adaptation to specific network conditions, screen size and processing power.

The basic integration architecture, as defined by ESBs, hasn't changed for more than a decade. Most cloud integration providers still rely on an ESB architecture and their proprietary connectors. As a result, enterprise integration projects suffer from constraints of availability and reliability of these connectors that are not re-usable across other integration vendors. However, the rapid adoption of APIs and almost ubiquitous availability of APIs amongst most SaaS and Cloud applications are rapidly redefining traditional integration approaches and their reliance on proprietary connectors. ...

Adopting our 'wise man/in my personal experience' mode we counsel our students and trainees on the critical value of time spent with the irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) sufferer, emphasising the importance of explaining to them the nature of their illness, and how stress and other environmental factors may influence their symptomatology.
This approach seems to make sense and to be consistent with the traditional role of the wholistic, caring physician; but then so did blood-letting to the Victorians! Demonstrating that this strategy is clinically valid is not easy. Although a number of strands of evidence had suggested that time allocated to the IBS patient was well spent, the randomised clinical trial from Labus and colleagues is, to my knowledge, the first attempt to subject what they describe as a psychoeducational intervention to the rigours of modern clinical research methodology.[1]
In this study, those randomised to the active group received 5 weekly 2 hour sessions with a gastroenterologist and a therapist, which included education about IBS and its pathophysiology, instruction on the connection between mood, stress and gastrointestinal symptoms, relaxation training, and homework assignments. Subjects were then evaluated at the end of the programme, and at follow-up 3 months later. Symptom severity, depression and visceral sensitivity were reduced, and quality of life and coping skills enhanced at the end of the study, and at the 3-month follow-up assessment in the group that received the psychoeducation intervention.
These findings support prior observations, such as those of Owens and colleagues who noted that a positive physician-patient interaction was associated, in the long term, with fewer return visits to the clinic for IBS[2] and an uncontrolled study, also from the Mayo clinic, that demonstrated, over a 6-month follow-up period, that an education class reduced symptoms and enhanced some health-promoting behaviours.[3]
Apart from such shortcomings as the location of the study in a tertiary referral centre and relatively brief nature of the follow-up, what the Labus study cannot tell us is why their approach worked and, specifically, which of the elements of the programme was most beneficial. Given that psychological approaches have been shown to work in IBS[4] and that one such approach, hypnotherapy, has been shown to exert sustained effects,[5] one could postulate that it was the relaxation therapy that did the trick.
Determining the operative element(s) of the strategy employed by Labus and colleagues is of practical, as well as academic, interest; this information will be critical when one attempts to find support for such a programme, be it from a hospital, an academic institution or a payor.

The fierce, true-life account of United States Air Force pediatric surgeon Lt. Col. Dr. Chris Coppola, this book describes his experiences through two deployments in Operation Iraqi Freedom inside a military trauma hospital at Balad Air Base, just 49 miles north of Baghdad. Novelistic in scope and vision, this memoir extends beyond objective reportage to give genuine voice to U.S. surgeons and soldiers, Iraqi translators, and everyday civilians whose core beliefs have been tested in the turmoil of war. Raw and powerfully moving, it reveals how one man's extraordinary courage and commitment to children survived and flourished even as he witnessed some of the most unspeakable horrors of war.
Dr. Chris Coppola received his medical degree from the John Hopkins University School of Medicine, trained in surgery at Yale University, and completed pediatric surgery specialty training at the Children's National Medical Center. He has served as the consultant to the Surgeon General of the Air Force in pediatric surgery and has completed humanitarian missions to Haiti and Brazil. He lives in Danville, Pennsylvania. Guy Raz is the weekend host of NPR's All Things Considered. He lives in Washington, DC.
Dr. Chris Coppola was a pediatrician in the U.S. before he shipped off to Iraq. As a military surgeon, he expected to treat soldiers, but he found himself helping war-ravaged Iraqi children as well. Host Liane Hansen speaks with Dr. Coppola about his memoir, Coppola: A Pediatric Surgeon in Iraq. More at NPR.org

Lea Michele revealed in the December issue of Elle that she's recorded a song dedicated to the late Cory Monteith for her debut album.
Originally, the track—titled "You're Mine"—wasn't even on the album, only to be included at the final moment.
"The album was done, and the label said, 'Do you want to add anything?' I was like, 'I might regret it if I don't,'" Lea shared with the magazine. "It makes me so happy, this song. It makes me think so much of Cory."
"It was ours," she continued. "When I think of him, I play this."
The special track goes along with another song, "If You Say So," that Lea wrote in Cory's memory. Writing and recording it was just one of the ways the actress has been coping with Cory's shocking death.
Lea enlisted the help of "Titanium" singer-songwriter Sia to help her express her feelings.
Making it even more personal, Lea revealed that the song's title, "If You Say So," which is also the phrase of the latest tattoo on her ribcage, was Cory's last words to the actress.

What better way to get a gauge on how deft members are with their financial planning and investment goals than to test the employees at their credit unions.
Filene Research Institute expert panelists agreed that credit unions need to do more than just pay lip service to the digital revolution when it comes to marketing.
Come 2030, credit unions will be in business serving up some kind of financial services, essentially one generation removed from today. However, getting there will be as wrenching—as full of dislocations and pains—as was the shift from 1950s-style credit unions with no share drafts into today's full-service financial supermarkets.
In this print preview from next week's edition, experts look at what the industry may look like a generation from now.
Check out this article and the slide show that follows to see how some credit unions are getting creative to help build young adult membership.
Despite a lingering lending slump, several credit unions managed to grow their loan portfolios by more than 5% during the Great Recession.
Is Bank Transfer Day more hype than consumer revolution?
More people still likely to switch, experts say.
Researchers find some increased cost efficiencies, lower loan rates and higher deposit rates.
A new study conducted by Lake Bluff, Ill.-based economic research firm Moebs Services reveals that since the Federal Reserve's August 2010 implementation of Regulation E, which requires financial institutions to receive consumer approval prior to cover debit card and ATM overdrafts, CU overdraft transaction prices have remained flat at $25.
