Anime Festival Asia (AFA) is a series of anime conventions held in the Southeast Asian region, with a core annual convention held in Singapore. The main convention is traditionally held over a weekend in mid-November. It was held at the Suntec Singapore International Convention and Exhibition Centre in 2008–2011, but was moved to the Singapore Expo MAX Pavilion in 2012 due to renovation works at Suntec Convention Centre that year. Satellite conventions were also held in 2012 at the Putra World Trade Centre, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia; and at the Jakarta International Expo, Kemayoran, Jakarta, Indonesia.
Alongside the main conventions, AFA also holds periodic business conferences focusing on the anime and manga industry. The first of these was Animation Asia Conference, held in 2009.[1]
AFA is notable for having one of the largest attendance figures for anime conventions outside of Japan, with 82,000 attendees in 2011.[2] Total attendance since 2008 as of 2014 is 678,000.
The continued organisation of AFA is managed by Sozo.[3] in partnership with Zepp Entertainment & Dentsu.[4]

The Whirlpool Cabrio Platinum WED8000BW (MSRP $849) is the latest in an updated series of Whirlpool dryers designed to match the company's new lineup of high efficiency, top-loading washers. And though it'll likely be sold as part of a package with a washing machine, this dryer deserves recognition on its own merits. It handled the tough Bulky and Delicates cycles with ease. Likewise, the Normal cycle was very effective. Though it lacks fancy features, it's quite easy to use, and $849 certainly won't break the bank. About our only complaint was that the Quick cycle put too much emphasis on speed and not enough on drying.
In the spirit of the Whirlpool WED8000BW itself, we'll keep this section free of frippery. Painted a sleek white, there's no clutter here: just six preprogrammed cycles on a central dial, a few time and temperature options, and a digital countdown timer. That timer was occasionally a source of consternation, as it proved to be a bit optimistic.
Using this Whirlpool is easier than hiring someone else to do your laundry for you. Just turn the machine on, put in your wet clothes, close the door, select a cycle, and press start. A one-time payment of $849 is all you'll shell out, and you don't have to figure out payroll tax deductions.
First off, this Whirlpool had an exceptional Bulky cycle. It tossed our comforter around in its massive, 7.6 cu. ft. drum and got our test comforter on average 89 percent dry. That's a feat that dryers twice as expensive often can't replicate. The Delicates cycle was also notable, as it got clothes 99 percent dry while staying around 100ºF.
The Normal cycle got just a bit toasty at 150.4ºF and ran over an hour, but got clothes dry. As long as you aren't drying the most fragile of fabrics, you shouldn't have any problems here. The Quick cycle, on the other hand, lasted 13 minutes. Indeed, it was quick. But it got a standard four pound load of laundry only 49 percent dry. If you ran it twice, or only threw in a shirt or two, you'd probably be OK.
Features-wise, there's not much going on here. A wrinkle-preventing extended tumble will run up to 150 minutes, but you'll be out of luck if you're looking for a boatload of dedicated cycles or a steam option.
The Whirlpool Cabrio Platinum WED8000BW is a straightforward and effective dryer. All of its core cycles performed well, with the exception of a Quick cycle that sacrificed dryness for speed. If you're looking for an affordable dryer that turns its simplicity into an asset, this Cabrio may be the one for you.

Myself and a friend plan on traveling to China this May for the first time. We enjoy traveling and seeing different places and cultures but don't want to fit too much in and arrive back feeling exhausted and that we had seen nowhere properly. We had originally intended on using sleeper trains but think we will now fly so as to make the best use of our time (and get a good night's sleep!).
We want to get a good feel of China as a country - the countryside and cities and the Chinese culture. Day 1 - 13 are on a private tour and we will then spend the remainder in Hong Kong by ourselves. I know that there is no need to do a tour in China but given the amount that we want to fit it and our limited time, we want to take a tour.
Fodors has been very helpful in the past in informing my itinerary and I would appreciate any help you could give us on this.
(I have included the accommodation if anyone has any feedback on that - we want clean safe 3* - 4* hotels)
The itinerary that we are now planning on following is as set out below:

We stayed in Citadines Xian. See photos:
We liked it. The location was great for us. So what is a private tour? Just the two of you and a driver?
Not many people like packing a lot of things into a vacation but my husband and I can never see enough. See my itinerary for China in 2010. http://www.fodors.com/community/asia/on-the-road-in-china.cfm If you go to view the photos of Citadines, you can see more photos of our trip. It may help you decide what to do. If you can get to Pingyao or Datong, they are well worth the trip. For us, it was much more interesting than Hong Kong. A week there would have been too much for us.

We are in china now. We took sleeper trains and thought they were a great way of getting around and we were able to get good sleep along the way.

Looks pretty standard to me. It is not going to be leisurely, but no worse than most tours. Since this is YOUR tour, absolutely pre-negotiate how many shopping stops you'll get each day.
Report Abuse
Are you not planning to visit Shanghai? It is a pretty lovely city!
Also - those factory tours are certainly optional - and weirdly tiring, in my opinion. You are constantly being pushed to buy the products.
There is no such thing as a leisurely tour of China. It's a lot of walking and traveling. The only way to tone it down would be to stay in one place for several days and pretend you have all the time in the world.

Thanks sdtravels - your post is very helpful! Good idea rrkwan on negotiating the number of shopping stops.

The Government is breathing a sigh of relief after the latest opinion poll shows there has been no major damage to National's support from the Dotcom saga.
But Labour is also buoyed after last night's TV3-Reid Research Poll became the second poll in a week to show National losing ground.
National was down 1.8 points but retained a massive majority of 48.8 per cent. Labour was up 2.2 to 33 per cent and the Greens were down slightly to 10 per cent.
NZ First failed to reach the 5 per cent threshold required to remain in Parliament without an electorate seat despite being up a fraction to 3.2 per cent.
The Maori Party was down 1.1 to 1.5 per cent.
A spokeswoman for Prime Minister John Key said the poll showed voters were reacting to a Government that was focused on the issues that mattered.
"Not the stunts and sideshows the Opposition is obsessed with."
However, Mr Key was down to 41 per cent in the preferred prime minister ratings, his lowest level since taking office in 2008.
Labour leader David Shearer fell slightly to 8.5 per cent.
NZ First leader Winston Peters was on 5 per cent and Greens co-leader Russel Norman was on 2.4 per cent.
It has been a difficult few weeks for Mr Key who has been in the spotlight over what and when he knew about the Government Communications and Security Bureau's unlawful spying on German internet mogul Kim Dotcom.
His hands-off approach to his ministry has been questioned and he has been forced to admit he did not remember the GCSB's involvement in the case being mentioned at a meeting in February. This week he will have to amend an answer that he gave in Parliament to reflect his "brain fade".
The Government has also been on the back foot after hundreds of job losses being announced in recent weeks and a "job crisis summit" held by Opposition leaders, unions, economists and academics last week to discuss ways to stem redundancies in the manufacturing sector.
The Government has said the only crisis is the one being painted by the Opposition but Labour leader David Shearer said it was behind some of the bleeding of National's support.
"Dotcom and Mr Key's policy of forgetting things [have] undermined him but also the job losses in Bluff, Kawerau, Greymouth.
"It's like every second day there's another set of job losses," Mr Shearer said.
"It's people who are disappointed in John Key and his handling of issues and disappointed with the Government."
A Roy Morgan poll last week put National down 2 points to 41.5 per cent, its lowest level of support in the poll since becoming the Government in 2008.
Labour was up only marginally to 33.5 per cent but, along with moves from the Greens, up 2 to 13.5 per cent, and NZ First, up 1.5 to 6.5, it gave the Opposition block a clear majority.

Have you really had your greens? New test to tell doctors what we're eating
The test could help scientists link diet and disease by providing hard evidence of food eaten
Lewis Smith
Wednesday 11 January 2012
A simple test to check whether patients are eating their recommended five portions of fruit and vegetables a day could be introduced in Britain within five years.
Scientists have developed a prototype test which tells them what people have been eating over the past week. They believe it will be an invaluable weapon in the battle against obesity and in aiding research into cancer, heart attacks and diabetes.
The test, developed by researchers at the universities of Aberystwyth and Newcastle with Food Standards Agency funding, relies on the identification of the chemical fingerprints of substances found in urine that have been created by different foods as they pass through the body. Chemical signatures for raspberries, broccoli, orange juice and salmon have already been successfully profiled. The team is confident that, in time, virtually every food ingredient will be identifiable.
The urine sample currently has to be sent to a laboratory for examination but Professor John Draper, who led the work at Aberystwyth University, believes that the first commercial dip-stick tests could be available within five years.
He said it could be an important tool for nutrition experts and medical staff trying to monitor the eating habits of obese patients trying to lose weight. But even more important, he believes, are the potential applications for scientists trying to establish links between diet and diseases.
Thousands of research papers are published every year pointing to links between food and disease or disease prevention, yet in only a handful of cases can scientists say connections are proven, because of doubts about the reliability of records of patients' diets.
"It should mean that for the first time researchers will be able to say for certain which items of food help protect against specific diseases, and those that can seriously increase the chance of getting a particular disease," he said. It would also open the way for food retailers to advertise more foodstuffs as having health-giving properties, a ploy largely denied them until now because of doubts as to the reliability of evidence.

Tough Bail For Septa Officer In Robbery Lamont Mclaurin, 36, Is Accused Of Taking Part In A Case Involving Hostages And Russian Mobsters.
July 17, 1998
By George Anastasia, INQUIRER STAFF WRITER
A federal magistrate judge set stringent bail conditions yesterday for a SEPTA police officer charged by New York authorities in a hostage-taking robbery allegedly orchestrated by Russian mobsters. Authorities allege that furs, jewelry and Rolex watches were taken during a home break-in in Brooklyn on May 13 and that the victims were later forced to pay an additional $40,000 in cash. The victims, identified only as the owners of a New York business, were gagged, handcuffed and had their faces covered with ski caps by two men who entered their home posing as police officers, according to a criminal complaint filed last week.
Editorial: The Phillies Parade
November 7, 2008
Everybody's hoping for another Phillies parade next year, but fans shouldn't expect SEPTA to do the impossible - that is, carry hundreds of thousands of riders beyond its normal capacity. The disappointed baseball fans who were delayed and stranded on crowded train platforms last week were understandably frustrated and angry. But they really shouldn't have been surprised that a commuter rail system sized for 135,000 could not handle several times the ridership. No question, thousands tried to do the right thing by taking a train or bus to Center City and the stadium complex.
SEPTA police demand raises, may strike
February 7, 2012
By Paul Nussbaum, Inquirer Staff Writer
Unhappy with the pace of contract negotiations, SEPTA police are warning of a possible strike. SEPTA officials have drawn up contingency plans for protecting passengers and SEPTA property in case of a strike, a spokeswoman said Monday. The Fraternal Order of Transit Police, which represents about 220 SEPTA officers, had a one-day walkout in 2008, the first ever by the police force. No new strike is imminent yet, as the police and SEPTA have agreed to talk again in March.
SEPTA union authorizes strike
October 28, 2014
By Mike Newall and Paul Nussbaum, Inquirer Staff Writers
SEPTA bus drivers, subway and trolley operators, and other transit workers voted unanimously Sunday to authorize a strike, which could take effect this year or early in 2015. The voting took place in a huge Columbus Boulevard meeting hall packed with hundreds of SEPTA union members. "There wasn't a nay in the room," said Willie Brown, president of Transport Workers Union Local 234. "Members don't want to strike, but they are willing to fight for what we need. " Among the sticking points, he said, is a disagreement between the union and management about the size of pension fund contributions.

SEPTA vendor for papal passes gets $500K a year
July 25, 2015
By Paul Nussbaum, Inquirer Staff Writer
SEPTA is paying $500,000 a year for information technology services to CapTech Consulting Inc., the company hired to design and build an e-commerce site on the agency's home page to sell special transit passes for the September papal visit. The site crashed within minutes of going live Monday morningand has remained down all week, as SEPTA considers hiring another outside vendor to sell the online passes if CapTech cannot solve the problems. The Wayne office of CapTech, a Richmond, Va.-based company, was awarded a three-year$1.5 million contract in March to perform information technology tasks for SEPTA.
Septa's Line
April 2, 2003
SEPTA unveiled its budget yesterday, and it was no April Fool's joke. The transit service is now facing a deficit the size of a Philadelphia pothole: $55 million for the fiscal 2004 budget. The bad news shouldn't be a shock to anyone. The economic downturn that has affected private businesses is now being felt big time in the public sector. Now it's SEPTA's turn to squeal. To make up the shortfall, the transit service is considering cutbacks and fare increases. Much of it makes sense.
Thornburgh And Septa
August 17, 1986
SEPTA Chairman Lewis F. Gould Jr. understandably is upset about the deletions made by Gov. Thornburgh in state funding for transit projects in Southeastern Pennsylvania before approving the capital budget enacted by the legislature. The governor "blue-lined" items for SEPTA totaling $36 million - more than half of the funds voted by the legislature. As Mr. Gould has noted in a letter to the governor, federal funds for transit capital projects require matching funds from the state.
The problem with SEPTA
April 10, 2003
HOW CAN the Daily News say that the SEPTA service cuts make sense (editorial, April 2)? These cuts don't make sense. This is the beginning of the total dismantling of our transit system. These cuts will hurt our region's economy since it will be harder to attract new jobs and will only hasten the departure of companies who are considering leaving our area. As a supporter of Gov. Rendell, I ask him to address this issue of dedicated transit funding and fix this problem once and for all. It is sad that we continue to remain near the bottom of the list in the funding of the transit system our country.
Transit strike lesson: Learn to drive a bus
November 6, 2009
As I stood in line waiting for my train home for more than an hour Tuesday night, I debated whether the SEPTA union president had lost his mind, or whether I should get a job driving a bus. As the time passed and the guy behind me kept sneezing, I got more and more agitated at Willie Brown, the SEPTA union head who walked away from the bargaining table in the middle of the night, leaving thousands of riders in the lurch. Calling a strike without warning at 3 a.m. was dirty pool.

Is SEPTA Police Chief's transparency sincere or show?
July 29, 2015
By Helen Ubinas, Daily News Columnist
FIRST SANTA CLAUS, then the Easter Bunny, now Chief Transparency? Is there nothing left to believe in? Consider this: The SEPTA police department had an ugly incident on their hands last month when cellphone video that went viral caught a veteran officer grabbing an allegedly fare-evading father by the throat while the man held his 18-month-old daughter. At a subsequent press conference, SEPTA police Chief Thomas Nestel, the city's most vocal champion of police reform and a practitioner of transparency, was contrite.
All aboard! SEPTA's regional rail lines carried record numbers
July 27, 2015
BY MENSAH M. DEAN, Daily News Staff Writer firstname.lastname@example.com, 215-854-4172
IF YOU LIKE SEPTA, you're not alone. While the city school district is flunking financially and the police department is too often suspect, the region's transit authority appears to be on the right track. Ridership on SEPTA's 13 regional rail lines hit an all-time high of 37.4 million trips in fiscal year 2015, the period from July 1 2014 through June 30, SEPTA announced yesterday. It was the third year in a row a ridership record was set, according to numbers the authority provided to the Daily News . On the financial side, at the end of FY15, SEPTA marked its 16th consecutive year of operating with a balanced budget, said SEPTA spokesman Andrew Busch.
Fortress Francis
July 27, 2015
Inquirer Editorial Board
A casual observer of Philadelphia's papal preparations could be forgiven for wondering whether the city is girding for a sharknado - or some other disaster as improbable as the one featured in the Syfy channel's C movies. With officials planning to close Center City and more to vehicles, dramatically restrict mass transit, and corral crowds behind 8-foot fences, it sounds as if little will be mobile besides the popemobile. Last week brought more cause for reflection, not to say prayer, when SEPTA's sale of special Regional Rail passes failed to leave the station.

SEPTA won't sell papal passes this week
July 23, 2015
By Paul Nussbaum, Inquirer Staff Writer
SEPTA will not resume sales this week of special Regional Rail transit passes for the papal visit in September, following the Monday crash of its Web sales site shortly after it went live. The transit agency said Tuesday that it might continue trying to fix its e-commerce site to handle the high demand for the special passes, or it might hire an outside vendor to sell the passes online. SEPTA did not say when sales would resume. "An analysis of the activity yesterday shows that 54,000 customers visited the e-commerce site within the first minute after the site was launched," SEPTA said in a statement Tuesday.
SEPTA: Papal pass sale will not resume this week
July 23, 2015
BY STEPHANIE FARR, Daily News Staff Writer email@example.com, 215-854-4225
THE SALE OF regional rail passes for the weekend of Pope Francis' visit will not resume this week, after the site for pass sales crashed when it went live on Monday due to high volume, SEPTA announced yesterday. In a statement, SEPTA spokesman Andrew Busch said the agency is still considering how best to address the overwhelming demand for the papal passes. Within the first minute of launch, about 54,000 people visited SEPTA's papal pass site. When the site was shut down, more than an hour later, 64,000 people were still trying to buy passes.
Papal im-pass: SEPTA site crashes due to high volume

IF YESTERDAY'S botched online sale of SEPTA regional-rail passes for the papal visit is any indication of what's in store when it comes to transportation during Pope Francis' visit in September - heaven help us. SEPTA's papal-pass site, which went live at 9 a.m., crashed almost immediately due to high volume. By 10:40 a.m., SEPTA officials had shut down the site and put the sale on hold. Sales will not resume today, but SEPTA is expected to announce today when sales will reopen.

SEPTA suspended its online sales of train passes for September's papal visit shortly after they began Monday morning, because demand to buy them overwhelmed the transit agency's website capacity. SEPTA will announce Tuesday its plans for resuming sales at www.septa.org/papalvisitphilly . It will provide a 24-hour notice before trying to restart online sales, the agency said. Most papal Regional Rail passes remain unsold, SEPTA spokeswoman Jerri Williams said Monday. "The majority of the passes are still there.

A Route 67 bus struck another traveling on Route 24 on Algon Avenue near Oxford about 10:30 a.m., spokesman Manny Smith said in an email yesterday.

Their conditions weren't available last night, Smith said.
Man killed by SEPTA train in W. Philly

A71-YEAR-OLD man was killed yesterday when he was hit by a SEPTA Regional Rail train in West Philadelphia, officials said. John Glassner was struck just before 12:30 p.m. while walking on the tracks of the transit authority's Media-Elwyn line, police said. Medics pronounced Glassner dead at the scene, near 58th Street and Baltimore Avenue, police said. It was unclear last night why Glassner had been on the tracks. It was the second train-related fatality last week on SEPTA's Regional Rail system.

The Moore Theatre was built in 1907 and has become the oldest remaining theatre in Seattle, Washington. In 1974 the Moore Theatre was added onto the National Register of Historic Places.
The Moore Theatre Seattle had been known for its multiple uses of luxurious materials, unique architecture and, at that time, advanced technology. Over the century, the venue has undergone numerous changes to both its look and operation. The Moore Theatre schedule first featured various vaudeville acts and was later used as a rental house, and then a movie theater. Despite the fluctuations in function over the years, one thing which has remained constant throughout, is the Moore Theatre venue being an integral part of the Seattle arts community.
Indeed, the Moore Theatre has become Seattle's premier location for local and touring acts, artists and events, with alternative touring musicians and theater given particular preference on the schedule. In addition, community events like lectures, beauty pageants and dances have all also been featured on the Moore Theatre schedule.

Dr. Robert J. Full is a professor at UC Berkeley's Department of Integrative Biology, and I guarantee that his job title doesn't prepare you for what he actually does. "My primary interests reside in the area of comparative biomechanics and physiology," he writes. "[My research program seeks] general design principles for species which have evolved different solutions to the problems of locomotion and activity in general."
One of those species is that lizard with the bad-ass coloring up above. The Agama lizard, as it's called, has a very long tail:
Full's research observed something surprising about how this particular lizard uses its tail, and realized it could be adapted for a wheeled robotic vehicle needing to pull some crazy stunt-type maneuvers. This video will show you what we can't in photos, and be sure to check out the slow-mo at 0:45. (You'll also catch a glimpse, at 2:28, of what I consider to be a terrifying cheetah-based robot by DARPA and Boston Dynamics.)
TED devotees may recognize Professor Full's name from previous years' TED Talks he's given on animal movement, engineering and animal evolution, and the tail of Agama cousin the gecko. You can see those here, and you can learn more about Full's research at UC Berkeley's Poly-PEDAL (Performance Energetics Dynamics Animal Locomotion) website.

Modeling session by holmertz (44458)
ourania (35852) 2015-07-29 12:19
Hello Gert,
in the day of Facebook and other social media, I've seen so many ladies and girls, even friends of mine I didn't expect they had such skills and ambitions, pose with an attitude, like professional models. I think this is the case here too, but your photo is so well composed and much more interesting than the photos the girls might post from this "session". Your wider point of view is more comprehensive and intriguing, icluding the photographer and more of the architecture too. In your composition, the stylized predictable photo gained spontaneity and became a story. The harmony of the colours is marvellous. Congratulations and thank you!
All the best, have a great evening,

Καλησπέρα Δάνο,
φανταστική εικόνα, η σύνθεσή της είναι απλή αλλά η οπτική γωνία, το λαμπερό μπλε φόντο και η κίνηση την κάνουν συναρπαστική. Επίσης το σκάφος είναι πολύ ενδιαφέρον και γεμάτο χάρη. Ο τρόπος που χειρίστηκες το φως και τις αντιθέσεις έκανε τη σκηνή τόσο ελκυστική και ευχάριστη. Και ποιος δεν θα ήθελε να βρεθεί κοντά σ' αυτή τη θάλασσα! Συγχαρητήρια και ευχαριστώ!
Να είσαι καλά, καλό σου βράδυ,

AMD Introduces Industry's Most Powerful Server Graphics Card
(Marketwire Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) SUNNYVALE, CA -- (Marketwire) -- 11/12/12 -- AMD (NYSE: AMD) today launched the AMD FirePro� S10000, the industry's most powerful server graphics card, designed for high-performance computing (HPC) workloads and graphics intensive applications. The AMD FirePro S10000 is the first professional-grade card to exceed one teraFLOPS (TFLOPS) of double-precision floating-point performance, helping to ensure optimal efficiency for HPC calculations(1). It is also the first ultra high-end card that brings an unprecedented 5.91 TFLOPS of peak single-precision and 1.48 TFLOPS of double-precision floating-point calculations(2).This performance ensures the fastest possible data processing speeds for professionals working with large amounts of information. In addition to HPC, the FirePro S10000 is also ideal for virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) and workstation graphics deployments.
"The demands placed on servers by compute and graphics-intensive workloads continues to grow exponentially as professionals work with larger data sets to design and engineer new products and services," said David Cummings, senior director and general manager, Professional Graphics, AMD. "The AMD FireProS10000, equipped with our Graphics Core Next Architecture, enables server graphics to play a dual role in providing both compute and graphics horsepower simultaneously. This is executed without compromising performance for users while helping reduce the total cost of ownership for IT managers." Equipped with AMD next-generation Graphics Core Next Architecture, the FirePro S10000 brings high performance computing and visualization to a variety of disciplines such as finance, oil exploration, aeronautics, automotive design and engineering, geophysics, life sciences, medicine and defense. With dual GPUs at work, professionals can experience high throughput, low latency transfers allowing for quick compute of complex calculations requiring high accuracy.
Responding to IT Manager NeedsWith two powerful GPUs in one dual-slot card, the FirePro S10000 enables high GPU density in the data center for VDI and helps increase overall processing performance. This makes it ideal for IT managers considering GPUs to sustain compute and facilitate graphics intensive workloads. Two on-board GPUs can help IT managers reap significant cost savings, replacing the need to purchase two single ultra-high-end graphics cards, and can help reduce total cost of ownership (TCO) due to lower power and cooling expenses.
Key Features of AMD FirePro� S10000 Server Graphics Compute Performance: The AMD FirePro S10000 is the most powerful dual-GPU server graphics card ever created, delivering up to 1.3 times the single precision and up to 7.8 times peak double-precision floating-point performance of the competition's comparable dual-GPU product. It also boasts an unprecedented 1.48 TFLOPS of peak double-precision floating-point performance(3); Increased Performance-Per-Watt: The AMD FirePro S10000 delivers the highest peak double-precision performance-per-watt -- 3.94 gigaFLOPS -- up to 4.7 times more than the competition's comparable dual-GPU product(3); High Memory Bandwidth: Equipped with a 6GB GDDR5 frame buffer and a 384-bit interface, the AMD FirePro S10000 delivers up to 1.5 times the memory bandwidth of the comparable competing dual-GPU solution(4); DirectGMA Support: This feature removes CPU bandwidth and latency bottlenecks, optimizing communication between both GPUs. This also enables P2P data transfers between devices on the bus and the GPU, completely bypassing any need to traverse the host's main memory, utilize the CPU, or incur additional redundant transfers over PCI Express®, resulting in high throughput low-latency transfers which allow for quick compute of complex calculations requiring high accuracy; OpenCL� Support: OpenCL has become the compute programming language of choice among developers looking to take full advantage of the combined parallel processing capabilities of the FirePro S10000. This has accelerated computer-aided design (CAD), computer-aided engineering (CAE), and media and entertainment (M&E) software, changing the way professionals work thanks to performance and functionality improvements.
Please visit AMD at SC12, booth #2019, to see the AMD FirePro S10000 power the latest in graphics technology.

Pack baseball wins finale
Pack baseball
wins finale
The Colorado State University-Pueblo baseball team claimed its second walk-off, extra-inning win of the weekend as they split a key four-game Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference series with a 9-8 triumph over 13th-ranked Colorado Mesa University on Sunday afternoon at Rawlings Field.
After winning a 5-4 decision with a 10th-inning walk-off homer by starting first baseman Dominick Bregar on Friday night in the series opener, the Pack relied heavily on the bench in Sunday's win, which featured ninth and 10th inning comebacks to tie the game before a Maverick throwing error allowed the Pack to score the game-winning run in the 11th.
Reserve shortstop Dillon Thomas, who had entered the game defensively in the 10th inning, started the 11th off with a single to right before moving to second on centerfielder Mike Wagner's third straight single.
One batter later, Thomas Vinci made his first plate appearance of the season. The South graduate hit the ball to the right side as the Mavericks Kevan Elcock threw the ball wide of second base in attempting to get Wagner with a forceout at second. That allowed Thomas to round third and score.
T-Wolves softball
gets 4-game split
With the 2014 regular season winding down for the CSU-Pueblo softball team, the competition is just heating up as the Pack wrapped up a four-game series against Chadron State, splitting the series two apiece.
With the series split, it sets up a big series next weekend when CSU-Pueblo (18-15, 15-7) travels to Colorado Springs to take on the current RMAC-leading UC-Colorado Springs (20-10, 16-7). The Mountain Lions hold a half-game lead over the Pack for the top spot in the RMAC.
The four-game series is set to begin at noon Saturday at the Four Diamond Sports Complex.
