Walking to work this morning, I was struck by how some women seem to hold themselves as though they know they are a precious thing. They deserve to be well dressed, their beauty offered to enrich the fabric of the world. They hold themselves like something rare and breakable.
On the other hand, I realized, I hold myself rather differently. Like a tennis ball, perhaps. A tennis ball that is used to play catch with a rather slobbery dog. I'm utilitarian and I get things done, but I do not hold myself with any care – rather, I hold myself as if I am ready to run.

|TOA Industries Co., Ltd. Patent applications
|Patent application number
|WORKPIECES STACKING APPARATUS - The invention provides a compact and easily movable workpiece stacking apparatus which uses only an electric source as a power source. A workpiece stacking apparatus includes lift bars on which workpieces are stackable and a lift bar drive apparatus which drives the lift bars in the upward and downward directions. The lift bar drive apparatus includes a support pillar which guides the lift bars in the upward and downward directions, a first sprocket, a second sprocket disposed below the first sprocket and guided movably in the upward and downward directions, a roller chain of which one end is fixed to the lift bars and extended from the lift bars to be engaged with the teeth of the first and second sprockets and the other end is fixed so as to hang the second sprocket, and an electric motor which drives and rotates the first sprocket.
|PRESS MACHINE AND PRESSING METHOD - A press machine includes a lower die having a step portion for forming a bent portion on a side surface, a pad portion supported by a spring and disposed adjacent to the lower die in the horizontal direction, being movable upward and downward, an upper die disposed opposing the pad portion in the vertical direction, and a regulation portion. When the upper die moves downward and presses a steel plate between the upper die and the pad portion to form a bent portion in an edge portion of the steel plate, the regulation portion moves together with the upper die and regulates the motion of the edge portion of the steel plate protruding from the lower die in the horizontal direction, thereby preventing a wrinkle from forming in the edge portion of the steel plate.
|AUTOMATIC ATTACHING APPARATUS OF FOAMED SEAL MEMBER - An automatic attaching apparatus of a foamed seal member includes an attaching hand handling a foamed seal member, a preset machine in which the foamed seal member is preset, a removing machine removing a release paper, and a robot moving the attaching hand. The attaching hand picks up the foamed seal member from the preset machine, presses the foamed seal member from which the release paper is removed against an attaching surface of a work using a pressing roller in a state where the foamed seal member is floated by an air floating device, and sends out the foamed seal member to attach the foamed seal member to the attaching surface of the work.
|METHOD OF MANUFACTURING VEHICLE BODY SIDE STRUCTURE AND VEHICLE BODY SIDE STRUCTURE - First to third steel members are cut to form predetermined planar shapes using press machines and form an upper member, a reinforcement member and a lower member. The carbon content of the third steel member is set lower than the carbon content of the first and second steel members. The upper member, the reinforcement member and the lower member are then assembled. The reinforcement member is superposed on the upper member. The upper member and the lower member are partially superposed. The superposed portions of the upper member and the reinforcement member and the superposed portions of the upper member and the lower member are then respectively joined by spot welding to form a blank member. The spot welded blank member is then heated to a temperature of a transformation point or higher, and the blank member is hot press formed by one press machine.
|METHOD OF LASER WELDING METAL PLATED PLATES - The invention provides a method of laser welding zinc plated steel plates which surely realizes excellent welding without a melting defect such as blowholes. By irradiating a line on a superposed portion of a lower plate and an upper plate with a first laser beam having a high energy density and a small irradiation region by moving the first laser beam therealong, steel plate portions in the small irradiation region are melted and zinc on the superposed surfaces around the small irradiation region including in the small irradiation region is evaporated and allowed to escape outside. Then, after the irradiation with the first laser beam, the same line is irradiated with a second laser beam having a lower energy density than the first laser beam and a larger irradiation region than the first laser beam by moving the second laser beam therealong to melt steel plate portions in the larger irradiation region, thereby completing weldbonding.

Ocala Magazine stripped of another 10 awards
Published: Wednesday, April 1, 2009 at 4:00 p.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, April 1, 2009 at 4:00 p.m.
OCALA - Plagiarism by Ocala Magazines former editor has now cost the publication 20 awards.
The Florida Magazine Association announced Wednesday that after conducting an investigation it is rescinding 10 awards. All were connected to the plagiarized writings of Heather Lee, according to the associations Web site.
The association presented 30 awards to the magazine from 2005 to 2008.
The North Central Florida Society of Professional Journalists Professional Chapter earlier had rescinded 10 awards for articles written or edited by Lee.
Lee was fired March 22 after evidence surfaced that she lifted large sections of articles from various publications and inserted them into her stories without mentioning the source.
The magazine association and journalism chapter thanked magazine publisher Linda Marks for her cooperation and for offering to return the awards.
The staff of the magazine told the Associated Press on Wednesday that they had no idea Lee was plagiarizing.
Before Lee was fired, she told the Star-Banner: Clearly, in the course of six years and millions and millions of words, theres the possibility that phrases and paragraphs can slip through the cracks.
Marks told the Star-Banner she installed a plagiarism filter that would check all editorial content, including the April issue. She is searching for a new editor.

I am sending you my wedding invitations in hopes that it might be interesting enough for your lovely blog! It was a red and blue themed wedding, and I illustrated the invitation with my husband and I sitting on a swing "swinging" into our new lives together forever! hehe!My husband and I both silkscreened the invitations at home, it was so fun!We also sent out funny RSVP cards, and a card to ask for tips about spain from our guests (because that is where we went on our honeymoon!). It was so much fun to see what all our guests wrote!I also included an image of our save-the-date cards, which we also designed and produced by silkscreen.

Finally picked up the Fuji frame that I asked about on here a few months ago. I took advantage of the online black Friday and Cyber Monday sales, along with some ebay scrounging, and all of the parts are on the way. It's been sitting like this for a couple of weeks:
Wheels are 105 hubs laced to Mavic open pros. Shifters are Dura Ace 9 speed. Crank is a 50/34 Sram Apex
Tires (Panaracer Pasela 700x28), rear derailleur (Ultegra) brakes (Nashbar long reach) and Brooks B17 arrived today.
Items still on the way:
Sram PC-991 chain
FSA compact front derailleur
Easton Seatpost
Profile Designs stem
Ultegra 14-25 cassette. I find that I never use the 11 or 13 tooth on my other bikes, so thought I'd give this a try. I'll be replacing the 23 and 25 tooth cogs with a 24 and 28. This will give me 14-15-16-17-18-19-21-24-28.
A friend is giving me a pair of Origin 8 brake levers, and I have a couple of different bars laying around. I'll be using Shimano SPD pedals, as I have these on all of my other bikes. Hopefully everything will be here by the weekend!

Laboratory Construction Slows
June 1997
The amount of science and engineering (S&E) research space in colleges and universities continues to increase despite cuts of federal funding, according to a recent report from NSF's Division of Science Resources Studies. The amount of total investment in new construction grew from almost $2.6 billion as reported in 1988 to a high of almost $3.4 billion in 1992. By the 1996 report to Congress, the amount invested in new construction declined to just under $2.8 billion.
Every two years, NSF surveys the nation's 565 research-performing colleges and universities, focusing on the condition of research facilities, plans and costs for renovation, as well as plans and costs for construction. The survey, which has been mandated by Congress since 1986, "shows Congress the status of the science infrastructure," explains project director Ann Lanier. In addition, she says, the institutions often use the information to develop long-range plans for their universities' laboratory systems.
The report, Scientific and Engineering Research Facilities at Colleges and Universities 1996, says that S&E research currently accounts for 136 million net assignable square feet (NASF), up from 112 NASF in 1988. Most (72%) of the space is located in the 100 universities that spend the most on research and development (R&D). In fiscal year 1994-95, state and local governments provided $1.2 billion, or 43% of all construction funding, up from $1.1 billion in 1990-91, or 32% of the total.
At the same time, direct federal funding declined. In 1990-91, the U.S. government provided $537 million, 16% of the total construction funding. In 1994-95, the federal government put in $207 million, 7% of total.
The federal funding for repair and renovation increased from $55 million to $111 million during the same time period. Total expenditures for repair and renovation projects increased 17% from $905 million in 1992-93 to $1.1 billion in 1994-95. However, 43% of all renovation was funded through the universities' and colleges' own institutional funds.
More recently, the Chronicle of Higher Education came out with its own report that tracks funds set aside by Congress for projects at specific universities through 1997, including funding for construction of research laboratories. Lanier says the trend in the Chronicle report matches those in the NSF survey for the years they have in common. "And with their new numbers it appears that the Congressional set-asides for fiscal year 1997 will be increasing. Money for new construction in 1997 will appear in the 1998 survey."

Stories in this reportApril 18 forum of experts to tackle shrinking supply, globalization, financeThe supply puzzle: Experts weigh in on how a shortage will impact industryNavigating the global markets: Plan on a long-term commitmentWinegrape shortage could last six to eight years
NAPA -- Not enough winegrapes have been planted in California, leading to a shortage of fruit for wine in the next several years, so growers and wineries should be actively working together to boost that supply, according to two major industry experts.
On Feb. 23, accounting firm Moss Adams LLP hosted a Wine Industry Financial Roundtable at the Napa Valley Marriott resort. The topic was "Shifting Strategies for Grape Sourcing." Featured speakers were Joe Ciatti, a prominent wine business broker with Zepponi and Company of Santa Rosa and former driving force of giant wine and winegrape brokerage Ciatti Co. of San Rafael, and Hugh Reimers, executive vice president and chief operating officer at Jackson Family Wines.
"A monumental change in supply occurred in January 2011," Mr. Ciatti said at the beginning of his presentation. "An excess of grapes has become a shortage."
He emphasized that the change is not due to short crops, as some believe: The past three years' harvests were historically large, however decreasing year by year.
He noted that the 2011 winegrape harvest of 3.3 million tons was actually above average, even though it was less than the 3.7 million tons harvested in 2009 and the 3.6 million tons of grapes from 2010.
The problem is that growers have not been planting grapes.
New vines have represented about 4 percent of the total of 500,000 acres of grapevines in California for years, but about 10 percent of planting and replanting each year is needed to replace aged stock and satisfy growth in consumption. Wine consumption growth averaged 4.5 percent yearly for the past decade and is now projected to continue at 3 percent annually for the foreseeable future.
Mr. Ciatti predicted that the grape shortage would last six to eight years.Revolving cycle of shortage, excess
Large varietal plantings occurred for the first time in the 1970s across the state, Mr. Ciatti said. More plantings took place a decade later (particularly in 1983) of Chardonnay, Zinfandel (for white wine) and French Colombard in the Central Valley, and the North Coast counties of Napa and Sonoma replanted several vineyards.

30 Greatest Videos of Kids Getting OWNED
It's probably evil to laugh at kids getting hurt on YouTube -- but that's probably why it feels so good. I don't hate kids, I actually love them, but for some reason, watching them have YouTube worthy mishaps (while not suffering any long-term damage, of course, blah blah blah) is one of the greatest things in the history of the internet. So here's a list of the most OH!-inducing clips kids getting OWNED. Special thanks to all the irresponsible, crooked-priority-filled family members who were kind enough to film these.
What is the best video of little kids getting hurt? Take a look at these hilarious videos and see for yourself.
- 1
Insane Karate Dog Jump Kicks Toddler on Wheels
First of all, I had absolutely no idea that dogs had the ability to perform jump kicks with no training. It took me years of watching Kung Fu movies to finally be able to pull one off. After getting back from the hospital later that night, I decided it was something best left for professionals. Luckily, this dog is a professional.
There's a cat, a vibrating toy taunting it and finally, a child wipes across the screen. This dog as had enough and it's the kid's turn to pay.
If you notice, the dog doesn't even care about the other things it was chasing, it just wanted to let everyone know that there are consequences for the over-stimulation he was going through... and someone needed to foot the bill.
- 2
Owned at the BuzzervThe way this clip unfolds is nothing less than cinematic, no, completely and utterly miraculous. You see the little tyke run around the court as if it were nothing, but it's actually a clever foreshadowing of events to come.
Then you have the player with the ball, who like any basketball player wants to chuck the ball full court at the buzzer for a possible extra three points that will get him laid for the rest of his life, but that never works out.
Fate then decides to intervene as the ball sails and misses any part of the basket at all, combines with the mystical power of the universe and collides with the toddler's skull for an amazing finish.
Roll credits and pass in your 3D glasses, because this insane movie of an event is over. Insane.
- 3
Worst. Slide. Ever.vParents should just show kids this video when they're trying to teach them to just do what they say.
Either that, or the terribly British parents in this video should really do a better job at communicating the gravity of exactly how crappy of a slide they bought their kid, "Edward."
When Edward climbs the slide, his father says "Edward, don't jump... you'll hurt yourself," but Edward of course does the opposite, and falls not off, but through the slide.
Probably also a parenting fail because this slide was apparently made of either construction paper or was sabotaged by a rival baby.
- 4
Little Kid Gets Kicked in the Face by Trampoline JumpervFirst of all, this guy clearly knows what he's doing. He's practicing his trampoline skills, flipping, jumping and picking up momentum with every single jump. He's going to show the world who he is and he doesn't care who knows it.
Until a little girl comes along.
She hangs off the trampoline and apparently has no sense of consequence. The person video taping the whole thing decides that this is a safe place for a little girl.
Everyone watching at home is tense as soon as she shows up.
The little kid starts hanging off the trampoline as if there's not a guy exerting himself and picking up hundreds of pounds of force in the process. The guy actually performs a fail so hard that even if the little girl were not there, this video would be an amazing thing to watch.
He flips upside down and lands feet first OFF of the trampoline. Luckily, there was a little girl there to break his fall. Looks like he'll live to jump another day.
- 5
Laser PWNedvYou have a dog, a laser pointer, and a crotch. Then you have a dad or older brother guiding that laser pointer around the room in a way that's making the dog want to catch it.
Where does the laser pointer finally settle? A small child's crotch. Hilarity ensues.
- 6
Secret Cat OWNS Child, A ClassicvThis infant just wants to use his new found powers of walking and go on a stroll through the garden, but he forgot one important thing: this is the cat's f*cking garden.
And the cat's been waiting for this day, and is 100% ready for it.
- 7
Natural Selection Diligently at WorkvThis kid has the genius idea of looking right down the barrel of his paintball gun to see why it's jammed.
In his defense, this very well might have happened before the days where YouTube taught us better lessons than the Darwin Awards have.
Whatever the problem with his gun was, it was waiting for him. This is why you make your kids watch Bugs Bunny cartoons when they're little (or "raise" them), so stuff like this doesn't happen.
Also, evolution is clearly trying to tell this kid something and it's screaming its message.
- 8
Tire Swing Battering RamvThe best part of seeing kids go flying is just that. Their little bodies require almost no power to sail into the air like a ragdoll, and this clip is no different as this kid's guardian (intentionally?) throws a tire swing full of kids at the young boy, and he flies back a good 10-15ft.
And you thought that lady tossing her CGI baby around for "Yoga" purposes was bad.
If only we could invent some sort of shuffleboard type game out of this.
- 9
Skateboard Catapult. What Could Go Wrong?vThis is another very obvious setup of a kid, a basketball, and a skateboard. His intention is to catapult the ball into the hoop by way of stepping on the opposite side of the board, but doesn't realize that it puts his face right in the target area.
He jumps on, and gets a face full of ball, as expected, delivering a self-pwn that will forever illustrate exactly why he's still working at a Kinko's when he's 30.
- 10
Soccer Ball to the FacevWhen an adult gets hit with a soccer (or any other) ball to the face, itâÃÂÃÂs funny, but when a small child gets rocked in the face, that small body is taking off. This clip is a perfect example, as this little girl is lifted off her feet in a beautiful arch of hilarity.
- 11
At Least They Aren't Doing This with Knife ThrowingvWill the shooter actually have the accuracy to pop the can off of the other kid's head without doing permanent eye damage? No, this is YouTube, where paintballs gravitate to pre-teens' heads like I do to strip clubs. That kid is undoubtedly getting shot in the face, and the best part is that right before it happens, and even after the kid says "you better not miss", someone behind the camera whispers exactly what all of us are thinking under his breath:
"This is a dumb idea."
The smartest person in any of these videos is always behind the camera.
- 12
Kid + Trampoline + Skateboard + Testicles = PainvKids get hurt on trampolines, and kids always get hurt on skateboards, so this boy on his trampoline with his skate deck is pretty much screwed.
He's trying to pull off an Ollie or some other trick out of his range (read: any trick), and when the board somehow comes down vertically, his expression pretty much says it all. And if that doesn't say it all for you, the times that they play this video again in slowmo will.
Weird fact: somebody, most likely the kid's friends/brothers/parents, but somebody close to these kids cuts these things together, edits them, then puts them on YouTube. Let's all hope we don't have these kinds of friends out there.
- 13
Innocent Child vs. Vindictive ParentsEveryone has been subjected to the infamous "Screamer" images, which, in case you weren't around in the early 2000s/late 90s, consist of a still image or otherwise serene video that is all of a sudden interrupted by a scream and horribly startling picture of a demon or a witch or a naked Rosie O'Donnell (no, really, I got that one once... I see it every time I close my eyes now.)
Passive aggressive parents would film their kids as they subjected them to these horrible videos, and then wondered why they wouldn't stop wetting the bed. The reaction of this kid is great as he actually tries to shove the screen away from him to escape because, obviously, the demon is going to eat him.
Isn't there a list of bad parents on this site? Let's throw these parents in there.
- 14
Fat Kid Balancing on Rock vs. Friends with Paintball GunsvJohn Michael here just wants to make a video of himself in the forest in New York (I didn't know that existed either), but his "friend" has a more interesting idea: that's right, more paintballs.
First of all (even though something has already been said), make a mental note as to what NOT to get your kids for Christmas and/or their birthdays.
When this happened it would not have been so funny if it were not for the screaming and screeching as John screams empty threats to the shooter from the middle of the river while he just keeps getting shot.
Admit it, you'd shoot him again at that point too.
BONUS: It's a fat kid trying to balance himself on a rock.
- 15
Giant Ball Knocks Little Girl OvervThe big yellow ball in this clip is just begging to be shot into that little girlâs head, and what do you know, we get our wish. The mother hurls it at the girl maybe a little harder than she intended, and that girl doesnât just drop, she dives head first into the grass, which is just great.
- 16
Dog TacklevThe dog in this clip wants to play, but he goes about it wrong by tackling the unaware child into the wall. The odd part is that the person/parent holding the camera makes no effort to see if the kid is okay, but instead keeps it rolling to see if there's any more action to put up on youtube.
Submission for worst kinds of parents of all time: YouTube Parents.
- 17
Dance Dance OWNED, An Internet ClassicvIn more undeniable proof that kids don't really "consider" the world around them, we have this clip, where a very skilled street dance crew is showing off all their hard work for some onlookers, and this little girl just runs right into the middle of it all and gets booted in the head so hard that she pulls off a few aerial moves of her own. Like, serious moves. Like, 12-button combos in Mortal Kombat serious.
This is a YouTube classic and one of the inspirations for this list. If you haven't seen this, it's one of the greatest videos in the history of the internet.
Seriously, though, this kid gets thrown offscreen like a side character they can't kill off yet in a Joss Whedon show.
- 18
Kid Severely Overestimates Jumping Prowess, Self OWNvThis kid is ready for the water.
He's got his floaties, his little bathing suit, and he's even holding his nose so he doesn't get water in it.
What he doesn't have is good depth perception, because his jump lands him a good meter (they're German, they use meters, bare with me) in front of his intended target, no doubt skidding his knees so much that he can't even go in the pool at all.
Little guy.
- 19
Karate Cat OWNs Little KidvAs previously stated, cats HATE children, mostly for taking all the attention off of their kitty needs.
This cat almost wants to put up with the kid, but if there's one thing a kid will always mess with, it's a cat's patience and, more importantly, tail. After Mittens has had enough of the pulling and the grubby little hands, he fights back with a flurry of clawless paw punches worthy of most arcade fighting games.
The best part is the expression on the kid, who really has no idea what just happened.
- 20
Spin Dance OWNEDvIn what is one of the oldest, best and most perfectly hilarious videos (this video is really like a classic fine dining dish of kid ownage videos), a Turkish man who is a skilled dancer is performing for an audience.
He is pulling of spin after spin after spin until a random toddler comes in from out of nowhere with little to absolutely no regard for his surroundings (or what we like to call "The Toddler M.O.") and gets wiped clean off his feet and onto the ground by skilled dancer who was picking up speed with each kick and now has to spend more time working up to that speed.

I've been able to read a Verilog file into DFII via ihdl to create a netlist view. My intent is to create an autoLayout view, so I go to "Tools --> Floorplan/Netlist in my window that shows me the netlist view and then go to the Hierarchy Browser. After preparing all my settings I click on "Hierarchy ---> Generate Physical Hierarchy". Eventually I get my autoLayout view.
Everything seems hunky-dory, except that some nets have gotten renamed to something like "_LoNgNeTnAmE108(123)". It appears the flattener didn't like the original net name (even though it's not really that much longer and I don't think there are restrictions on net names in the CDBA, or maybe it's 256 bytes but I'm nowhere near that length).
The problem now is that I can't correlate some of my nets in the Verilog netlist with the nets in my floorplan.
I haven't found any documentation on net renaming or the generation of a mapping file that would help me sort this out. There's nothing to be found in the adpFlatten directory that I could take advantage of.
Any comments what else I could try to remedy this problem? I need my symbolic netlist match exactly my Verilog netlist. BTW, my netlist is flat. In other words, there is no hierarchy involved. It's just a bunch of blocks (represented by abstracts) interconnected by a bunch of nets.
The DFII version I'm using is IC5.1 on Solaris (Sparc V9).
I've seen this in the past, and I believed that for many cases this was fixed/improved.
Which exact subversion of IC5141 are you using? This may be important information.
I forgot to mention that the net names created by the flattening process were long because the hierarchical path was combined with the net name to essentially make a long string - are you sure that the net names are relatively short?
In reply to skillUser:
The version is icfb.exe version 5.1.0 09/13/200
Yes, I'm perfectly sure the net name is short because the design is flat to begin with. No hierarchy involved whatsoever.

What I am asking for is the subversion information, i.e. the line that says "sub-version" in the CDS.log, or type getVersion(t) in the CIW to get this information. My guess is that your IC5141 installation is not the latest, which probably contains fixes for this issue.
Oops, sorry, forgot about the command, but here it is:
icfb -W: sub-version 5.10.41_USR4.54.77
I just switched to sub-version 5.10.41_USR6.127.29 with the same results. I think it is the latest IC5 version I have access to.
Hi Skillet,
Do you have a .cdsenv in your home directory (or current directory, if the CDS_LOAD_ENV environment variable is set appropriately)?
Add or change the following setting:
ihdl maxNetNameLength int 8000
You don't want to set this any higher than 8000 in case it prevents other tools from working, further down the line, but you can certainly set it lower - if this has no effect, then the installation is too old to use it, in other words, the setting was added after your subversion.
I've got a strong feeling that USR4 does not include this and so you will need to update the software to avoid this issue.
Lawrence. (skillUser)
OK, I just saw your latest post, try the setting and see if it helps, it should with the USR6 based version.
Wow, cool! I'll try it right away! Thanks a lot for your help. Much appreciated!
Hi Lawrence,
So far I haven't had any luck. However, I need to
clarify a few things. When I started this thread, I thought that long
net names were changed by the flattener. The reason I thought so is
because I checked the database and looked for a specific net name that
I found in the autoLayout view, using
dbFindNetByName(geGetEditRep() "_LoNgNeTnAmExyz")
the netlist view. Well, turns out I must have searched for the wrong
net name and when nil was returned, I thought this proved that the
netlister causes the net mapping. Now when I do a
I can see all kinds of nets with the prefix "_LoNgNeTnAmE". So that clarified for me that ihdl renames nets.
now to ihdl. I'm generally able to read in a netlist using our Linux
version of DFII. The SPARC Solaris versions we have (incl. the latest
one, namely 5.10.41_USR6.127.29) crash with a segmentation fault during
VerilogIn. When trying to read the Verilog file via the Linux version
layout.exe_64 version 5.1.0-64b 10/28/2008 16:04 (cicamd4) $
sub-version 5.10.41_USR6-64b.127.29
it doesn't seem to recognize the entry
ihdl maxNetNameLength int 1024
in my .cdsenv file in my directory. I first left CDS_LOAD_ENV untouched, but even after setting
setenv CDS_LOAD_ENV CWD
it doesn't work. I'm stuck. If you had any other suggestion, I'd be very greatful.
I think that I missed an important point - the above .cdsenv setting is used by VerilogIn when running from the GUI, but if you are running "ihdl" from the command line, then you will need to pass the option to ihdl through a setting in the parameters file, e.g.
maxNetNameLength := 4000
This setting was added from about USR3 onwards I believe, so the version that you are using should understand and use it.
Also I noticed in your version strings that you might be running in 64-bit mode; I'm not sure this will work for ihdl, so you might want to ensure that you turn off 64-bit mode for ihdl from the command line.
Hope this helps!

I think that you may need to file a Service Request with customer support; this may be a data specific case, or something that was missed in the fixes, and so Cadence R&D may need to see this in order for there to be progress on the issue.

Research News
Bacteria Assists in Formation of Ice and Snow
Chances are, that pile of snow in your yard contains bacteria — but not because it's dirty. New work in the journal Science suggests that bacteria may have played an important role in guiding the formation of the snow and rain forming ice crystals found in high-level clouds.
The researchers looked at snow samples from around the globe — including Montana, France and Antarctica — and found that cells and cell fragments were a significant part of the aerosol particles that lead to the formation of ice and raindrops.
Brent C. Christner, a member from the research team, talks with guest host Joe Palca about the connection between microbiology and meteorology.

While big-money influence threatens democracy on the national level, the grass-roots form of politics is alive and well in Clark County. Here exists the voter's right to elect the precinct committee officer of his or her preferred political party.
As the spouse of a long-serving precinct committee officer, I have seen how these volunteers assure that ultimate control of the Democratic and Republican parties in our state rests with party members and not with self-selected and potentially self-perpetuating cliques.
The Jan. 22 op-ed "Political parties are not private organizations" by Daniel M. Ogden Jr. explained this. He refuted The Columbian's editorial opposition to public election of PCOs. He showed how such public election helps carry out the mandate of the people of Washington that political parties must be regulated in their organizational and financial structure. It is the PCOs, giving of their time and effort to party offices and committee work, who largely implement these legal requirements. All politically concerned citizens of all parties should support the continuation of public election of precinct committee officers.

HS FOOTBALL: Old Forge cruises to 10-0
SUSQUEHANNA - Muddy field conditions couldn't slow down Old Forge. Neither could Susquehanna.
The third-ranked Blue Devils (5-0 LFC, 10-0) slipped and slogged their way to a 49-6 win over the Sabers in a Division III game Saturday. The win also gave Old Forge its second straight division championship.
Old Forge forced Susquehanna (2-3, 3-7) to punt on its first possession and took over on the Sabers' 29-yard-line after a punt. Brendan Wahl hit Anthony Piccolini for a 29-yard touchdown pass on the Blue Devils' first play from scrimmage.
"We worked a lot in practice on where the receivers were going to be and on timing and everything just opened up today," Wahl said. "The receivers executed really well today. They got open and the line did a great job."
Old Forge was stopped on fourth down on its next possession and then threw an interception in the end zone. But its defense was strong and the offense got going with touchdowns on five straight possessions to end the first half.
"What we wanted to do was come out as fast as we could and do some different things because we knew the surface was going to be real bad," Old Forge coach Mike Schuback said.
Wahl threw his second touchdown pass of the game on a 4-yard throw to Jake Manetti with 36 seconds remaining in the first quarter. Susquehanna then fumbled on its first play from scrimmage, giving Old Forge the ball at the Sabers' 33. Brian Tomasetti covered all 33 yards on two carries, including a 10-yard touchdown run to give Old Forge a 21-0 lead.
Susquehanna threw an interception on its next drive, and then Wahl hit Shane Schuback for a 31-yard touchdown.
"Conditions were real tough," Wahl said. "We were sliding all over the place. I just tried to keep my feet under me and make plays."
Wahl finished with 118 yards passing and three scores as Old Forge finished the regular season undefeated.
"This was our first goal," Wahl said. "We have two more goals which are a district championship and a state championship. This is a great thing for our program to go 10-0 and now we go forward."

Thousands of cyclists saddled up for a ride around central London after many of the city's most famous streets were closed to cars and lorries.
The second Prudential RideLondon event saw people of all ages ride around a ten-mile circuit that took in some of the capital's top landmarks, including Buckingham Palace, the Houses of Parliament, St Paul's Cathedral and the Tower of London.
The "freecycle" was part of a weekend of events which features household names like Olympic and Tour de France winner Sir Bradley Wiggins and Olympic and Commonwealth gold medallist Laura Trott taking to the roads in serious races.
It started with a world record, as a group of 639 riders set a new benchmark for the largest bicycle bell ensemble.
Miss Trott, a Prudential ambassador, said: "I've been looking forward to this event for ages. The sun's out and there are so many people cycling - it's great to see.
"It's brilliant that we can close a major city and have it just for cycling. When I was growing up I never experienced anything like that, so it's great to see how far my sport has come that we can do this.
"Cycling is getting bigger and bigger. I love riding my bike and to see so many come out to do the same is amazing. If it encourages as many young children to cycle as possible then it's been a success. That's what it's all about."
Trott, 22, could not retain the women's Grand Prix title she won in the inaugural event last year. She could only manage fifth place in this evening's race, which was won on the Mall by her Italian Wiggle Honda teammate Giorgia Bronzini, with reigning world champion Marianne Vos second and Briton Elizabeth Armitstead third.
Bronzini said she was thrilled to have won the race, telling the BBC: "It was an amazing race, I'm really excited about it because the last time I was here was the Olympic Games and I was a little bit unlucky.
"I really wanted to win in this beautiful city."
Tomorrow will see Sir Bradley Wiggins and 2012 world champion Philippe Gilbert lead the field in the Prudential RideLondon-Surrey Classic, which starts at the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park in Stratford, east London, and takes riders on a 1000 course out into Surrey before coming back into London and finishing on the Mall.
Wiggins, who missed out on a ride for Team Sky in this year's Tour de France, will ride for the team tomorrow.
He said: "I'm really looking forward to Sunday and to being back on the road with Team Sky. I always enjoy competing in front of home fans and have great memories of riding this route at the Olympics.
"The support we got then was unbelievable, and it was the same again at the Tour of Britain last year, so this promises to be a really special day."
Tomorrow's cyclists will have to have one eye on the weather, with the country bracing itself for high winds and more flash floods as Hurricane Bertha hits the country bringing lashing rain in its wake.

Miners Ordered To Stop Work Lewis Sets 10-Day Memorial Period WASHINGTON m John L Lewis in the midst of bargaining for a new coal wage contract, has ordered his miners out of the pits for a 10-day "memorial" work stoppage at the end of this month. Nothing was said in the an- nouncement to relate the move to the negotiations but Lewis custom- arily uses the contract-permitted mourning period in connection with new contract talks. Officially the purpose is commemoration of the casualties of mining disasters. The designated period, announced in the United Mine Workers Jour- nal, is Aug 23 to Sept. 1, inclusive. Aug. 23 falls on a Saturday when the miners customarilv do not work Monday. Sept. 1 is the Labor Dav so the stoppage will involve only six normal working days.

Dwight Eisenhower The showdown comes Monday when the conventian will decide what course of action the Missis- sippi party will take in presi- dential campaign.

The figures include restoration of both paved and unpaved streets. Cit. Engineer Charles Peterson said the city has repaired 17 miles of these streets and anticipates an- other four and three-quarter miles when Project S-10 has been com- pleted. The project is the last to be con- structed under the city s contract with Contractor Marvin R Boyce. Additional service lateral installa- tions will be done by the city or by another contractor. Boyce has replaced 2.05 miles of concrete streets the total mile- age of replacement that will be required and 5.09 miles of as- phalt, Construction Supt. Malcolm Moye said. An additional 1 09 miles of as- phalt streets remains to be done by the contractor. Peterson said that five miles of th streets repaired by the city have been or are being black-top- ped. He said that most of the work "has already been completed." None of that five miles had been previously paved. There are no plans "at present." Peterson said, "to pave the re- maining 12 miles." Under the original contract, Boyce was responsible for return- ing all streets broken up by sewer work to their former conditions. A later agreement between the city and contractor, however, pro- vided for releasing Boyce of re- sponsibility for repairing unpaved streets and turned the job over to the city's street department. Boyce, from his construction fund, provides "road oil of the quality required in total money value equal to 20 cents per lineal foot of sewer line installed" to be turned over to the street depart- ment in lieu of the work. An additional "20 cents per lin- eal foot" was paid "for the actual length of the streets which are (Turn to STREETS, Page 2) Comdr.

Attorney Thomas C. Sale of Pan- ama City is one of the committee members, according to Associated Press. Braden Ball, publisher of the Pensacola News-Journal and former Panama City newspaper- man, was named to the committee, as was C. C. Harrison, Marianna merchant.

The turnpike system, linking Jacksonville and Miami with a cross-state spur to Tampa area, would be financed by rev- enue bonds to be paid off by tolls for use of the limited-access high- way. Among other names to the com- mittee was J. C. Council, publish- er of the Tampa Morning Tribune, and an opponent of the tollpike proposal. Also named was Jesse Yarborough of the Dade County Board of County Commissioners, who is one of the leaders of the pro-turnpike forces.

Share Share Share Story by UTV Staff, Belfast The plant, found in the Jonesborough area, was capable of producing 25 million litres of illicit fuel, evading over £18m in taxes and duty a year.On Wednesday morning, while conducting searches, revenue officers discovered large underground tanks being used to launder green diesel. A 40ft tanker, large quantities of the illicit fuel, a quantity of bleaching earth - used to launder the diesel - and pumps and equipment were removed from the site.John Whiting, Assistant Director, Criminal Investigation for HMRC, said laundering taking place underground poses a real risk of contamination in the surrounding countryside."Every illegal laundering operation typically generates tonnes of toxic waste, which causes significant environmental and safety risks."Buying illicit fuel funds crime and supports and encourages these dangerous activities within our communities. We are all paying the substantial cleanup and disposal costs, so the only winners are the criminals," he added."We are working in partnership with our colleagues in the Organised Crime Task Force and I would urge anyone with information on fuel misuse in their area to contact our free telephone hotline - 0800 59 5000 - and contribute to the fight against this criminality."David Ford, Justice Minister and Chair of the Organised Crime Task Force, accompanied HMRC officers during the operation."I commend HMRC and PSNI officers on discovering this underground fuel laundering plant. This success shows the important role that the OCTF has in defeating crime and protecting our community," he said."It is important that operations like this are detected and shut down." © UTV Share Share Share

After almost a year of working wonderfully, my home computer has suddenly stopped. I thought it was a thermal issue: from cold I could login and even maybe start firefox before it would freeze (screen became static, network died, etc.) but if I rebooted after that it would stop much earlier. Today it has become much more consistent: booting recovery (verbose) mode always gets up through: "[xxx] devtmpfs: initialized" and then hangs.
Things that work:
memtest86+ runs fine and reports no errors.
Grub always loads and stays loaded fine.
A Debian 32bit install (rescue) disk loaded and did not crash.
Things that don't work:
64bit Debian install on the main HD
A 64bit Debian install disk I burned today did not load past the menu.
Could the debian amd64 bit kernel not be correctly built for my computer? Any advice would be much appreciated!

OLYMPIA, Wash. (AP) — The Washington State Patrol is investigating a report that some signatures for an initiative seeking to require training and background checks for long-term care workers appear to be fraudulent.
Seattlepi.com reports that the secretary of state's office requested the criminal probe. Officials said the company paid to gather the signatures, PCI Consultants, realized they were bogus and brought them to the attention of authorities, and none of the hundreds of questionable signatures was among the estimated 340,000 submitted in favor of Initiative 1163.
The initiative is backed by the Service Employees International Union. Campaign spokesman Sandeep Kaushik said the campaign did not pay for or even receive the fake signature, and that it takes seriously the integrity of the signature-gathering process.
