I had hoped to file a race report for my second crack at the 50k distance following Way Too Cool in March. Unfortunately, I had an expected, high-speed encounter with a baseball in February that forced me to withdraw from the race. While I was pretty disappointed not to be able to run WTC as I had heard so many great things about it I was determined to run a 50k this spring so I examined my options and set my sites on Quicksilver. It wasn't a decision made lightly as I was hoping my first race of the year would have less than 6,000 feet of vertical and would be early enough in the spring that heat wouldn't be a factor. Well Quicksilver features 6,000+ in vert and San Jose can have temps in the 80s and above in May. C'est la vie.
Once I recovered from my losing battle with the baseball, my physical prep went well enough although truth be told I was a bit undertrained and the longest run I did was 15 miles. Nevertheless I felt mentally confident that I was ready for the test Quicksilver would present. For the first time I slept in a bed other than my own before a race as I thought it best to drive to the South Bay the night before and crash at an old friend's place in order to spare myself from getting up at 4 a.m. to drive down from home in San Francisco.
Race morning temps were in the mid 50s and cloud cover was mercifully thick. The forecast called for overcast skies until late morning and highs around 73 degrees – not too bad as far as San Jose running weather goes. My strategy was to divide the distance into three 10 mile races, go out very slowly and gradually ratchet up my pace over the last two-thirds of the race.
There were 150+ registered runners including a few elites such as YiOu Wang and Chris DeNucci, both of whom claimed a Western States Golden Ticket earlier this year at the Lake Sonoma 50 and Bandera 100k, respectively. After a pre-race briefing that made light of mountain lions on the course (the good folks of the Quicksilver Running Club seem to find this a humorous topic) and a last minute change that would spare us from having to climb the course's famous pile of tailings we were off. I soon fell in with local runner Barry Kitazumi. We ran together for the first 12 or so miles of the course and we discussed upcoming races including his first 100 miler, the Javalina this fall. He also inspired me with tales of running the Grand Canyon rim-to-rim-to-rim.
My number one goal was to finish and, if the day was going well, to do so between six and six and a half hours. That would be considerably faster than my one previous 50k, The North Face Endurance Challenge in December, which I finished in 6:57:13. I felt an audacious goal was worth pursuing. (In case you decide to stop reading here, as of this writing I'm still pursuing it.) The conditions turned out not to be conducive to my recording a fast time. The course is located in the 4,100 acre Quicksilver Almaden Park, which features many landmarks of the Gold Rush era. The park's name is partially derived from the New Almaden Mines, where more than 83 million pounds of quicksilver were extracted between 1847 and 1976. As you may know, quicksilver (aka mercury) is used to extract gold from ore. Runners are treated to a tour of remnants of 19th century mining operations including numerous old mines, a mine shaft and a graveyard. Unfortunately, as mentioned previously, the iconic mountain of tailings had been deemed unsafe by a park ranger the day before necessitating a course change.
This race was my first time running in the South Bay and the park is remarkably beautiful. I was thankful for the cool temps and overcast skies the early morning offered as much of the course is exposed to the bright and relentless San Jose sun. Things started to change about two hours into the race as the skies cleared and temps inched up. My "Three 10 Mile Races" strategy worked well enough for the first 10 miles. I enjoyed the new scenery, felt strong on the climbs and took it easy on the descents. The first half of my "second 10 mile race" went smoothly as well. I focused on fortifying myself with liquids and calories (Tailwind and water supplemented with chips and Mtn Dew later in the race) for later in the day and was able to limit my loitering at the first three aid stations. At about mile 15 my body started to feel tired and I needed to keep my mind focused on the task at hand. Chatting became more of a chore and I found myself concentrating on the distances between aid stations. My "third 10 mile race" of the day was proving to be a challenge due to the weather, hilly nature of the course and undertraining. I certainly regretted not having a training run of 20+ miles under my belt. The heat began to take its toll as I labored on the climbs. The course features approximately 1,900 feet of climbing between miles 14 and 29 and, while I consider myself a decent uphill runner who enjoys climbing, the combination of the heat and the vertical sapped my strength considerably and led to hamstring cramping. Thankfully I had experienced far worse cramping at an earlier point in the race during my first 50k so I knew that I needed to ease back on the throttle, fast hike the uphills and generally just accept the discomfort.
By the time I reached the Bull Run Aid Station for the second time I knew that the race was just about done. I grabbed a pineapple popsicle and it proved to be quite refreshing until a massive brain freeze set in! Out of the AS, the course climbed 700 feet over the next three miles and then started a 1,080 foot descent to the finish down rolling hills. The most exciting part was when one of the guys I had kept pace with since mile 28 began waving his hands and gesturing to move to the right side of the trail. (I'm sure that I would've heard him shouting if I wasn't listening to music.) As I continued along I saw a four foot stick that looked like it was moving. It was then that I realized the runner ahead had been warning me about a rattlesnake. Thankfully the trail was quite wide and the rattler and I passed without incident. From there it was a short descent to the finish (and legendary barbecue) where I crossed the line at 6:50:32, which was 50th overall and 9th in my age group. Although I was well shy of my goal, I was glad to set a PR, even if only by six minutes and change. While I didn't get to see them, Pete Broomhall and Stacie Riddle were unafraid to take on and conquer the 100k course and get a 2017 Western States qualifier under their belts. Kudos to RD John Brooks, the Quicksilver Running Club and its dedicated volunteers for putting on a top-notch event. I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone seeking a challenging, picturesque and well-organized race. Thanks to Daniela Porri for coming out to lend her support at the finish. Lastly, I am eternally indebted to my wife and kids for continuing to support my habit.

GOP Climate Denial Puts "Future of Civilization at Risk"Obama may be talking the climate change talk in Paris, but back home the Republican Party (GOP) is doing everything in its power to make sure there is no deal.
Oh Exxon … The IronyFor twenty five years there has been one company that beyond all others has tried to undermine the UN Climate talks. For those twenty five years it has obfuscated the truth about climate by pouring millions into the funding of a network of climate sceptic and denial think tanks and politicians.
Mapping the Climate Sceptics' "Ecosystem of Influence"One of the most detailed studies of climate denial has concluded what many researchers have long known - that funding by the fossil fuel industry created a corrosive "ecosystem of influence" on both the content and language of the climate debate, especially in the US.
Beware of Exxon's Friends in the MediaAs I pointed out last week, one of the ground-breaking developments in the lead up to the Paris climate talks later this month has been the announcement by the New York Attorney's office that it was investigating Exxon for misleading the public and shareholders about climate change.
Two Significant Steps Forward; One Step Back Towards ParisTo start with one huge, massive, significant step forward. Victories do not come sweeter than this. After years of campaigning by millions of people from grass-roots activists, First Nations, farmers and ranchers to environmental groups such as Oil Change International, Sierra Club, 350.org and many others, President Obama announced on Friday that the controversial Keystone XL (KXL) pipeline is dead.

Sleep is essential for human health. But with increasing age, many people experience a decline in sleep quality, which in turn reduces their quality of life. Scientists at the Max Planck Institute (MPI) for Biology of Ageing in Cologne have investigated the mechanisms by which ageing impairs sleep in the fruit fly. Their findings suggest that age-related sleep decline can be prevented and might even be reversible.
To uncover basic age-related sleep mechanisms, the Max Planck scientists studied the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster, a classical model organism in ageing research. "Drosophila's sleep has many features in common with that of humans, including the decline in quality", says Luke Tain of the MPI for Biology of Ageing.
"Like humans, flies sleep at night and are active during the day. We can observe when and how long flies sleep. We can also determine their sleep quality by measuring how often they wake. This allows us to study the effects of specific substances or other sleep-influencing factors such as age and genetic disposition."
Ageing researchers Athanasios Metaxakis, Luke Tain, and Sebastian Grönke, in the department of MPI Director Linda Partridge, discovered that a reduced activity in the IIS signalling pathway leads to improved sleep quality at night and higher activity levels at day. A "signalling pathway" is a biological method of transferring information, and via those pathways, the cell can respond to external conditions like the state of food supply.
"In our study, we described the role of the IIS pathway in regulating sleep and activity through the neurotransmitters octopamine and dopamine", explains Tain. "What makes this pathway so interesting to us is the fact that it is evolutionarily conserved. This means that its components and functions are similar in diverse species from simple organisms like fruit flies to mice and even humans. Furthermore, we were able to improve sleep quality by administering therapeutic agents."
Moreover, the scientists found out that day activity and night sleep are regulated by two distinct signalling pathways, night sleep being mediated through TOR and dopaminergic signalling. Surprisingly, if TOR's activity is acutely inhibited by treatment with the therapeutic agent Rapamycin, sleep quality improves even in old flies, suggesting that age-related sleep decline is not only preventable, but also reversible.
The scientists will follow up on their findings. Luke Tain: "Given the high evolutionarily conservation of IIS and TOR function, our results implicate potential therapeutic targets to improve sleep quality in humans. This would be our longer-term goal. The next step however, is to find out whether these mechanisms also work in higher animals like mice."

What you'd need is a high-quality lens that has little chromatic aberration. Avoid superzooms and cheap lenses. You want a lens that maintains image quality at its maximum aperture. Consider the Canon 200 f/2.8 and Canon 70-200 f/2.8, in addition to the 17-55 f/2.8 EF-S lens.

What is the difference between FBO and PBO? Which one should I use for off-screen rendering?
A FBO (Framebuffer object) is a target where you can render images other than the default frame buffer or screen.
A PBO (Pixel Buffer Object) allows asynchronous transfers of pixel data to and from the device. This can be helpful to improve overall performance when rendering if you have other things that can be done while waiting for the pixel transfer.
A better question is how are they similar. The only thing that is similar about them is their names.
A Framebuffer Object (note the capitalization: framebuffer is one word, not two) is an object that contains multiple images which can be used as render targets.
A Pixel Buffer Object is:
If you want to render to a texture or just a non-screen framebuffer, then you use FBOs. If you're trying to read pixel data back to your application asynchronously, or you're trying to transfer pixel data to OpenGL images asynchronously, then you use PBOs.
They're nothing alike.
I would read VBOs, PBOs and FBOs:
I want to highlight something.
FBO it not memory block. I think it look like struct of pointer. You Must attach Texture to FBO to use it. After attach Texture you now can draw to it for offscreen render or for second pass effect.
In the other hand, PBO is memory block "block to hold type of memory. "Try to think of it as malloc of x size, then you can use memcpy to copy data from it to texture/FBO or to it".
Create intermediate memory buffer to interface with Host memory and not stop OpenGL drawing will upload texture to or from host.

Katrina Bowden weds in New York
"30 Rock" star Katrina Bowden walked down the aisle with her rocker beau in Brooklyn, New York, on Sunday.
The actress exchanged vows with musician Ben Jorgensen in a romantic ceremony at the Brooklyn Botanic Garden, a year and a half after they became engaged.
The bride and groom and their guests braved the rainy Big Apple weather for the private nuptials, but the newlyweds have some heat to look forward to – they are heading to Hawaii for their honeymoon.
Before their big day, Bowden admitted she was overwhelmed with her wedding plans. She revealed, "It's just crazy. I didn't know anything about weddings, and now I'm starting to learn everything and it's just kind of nuts. There's a lot that goes into it. I don't have a planner, so I'm doing it myself.
"(The biggest challenge) is just figuring out when you need to do everything. Picking a day is really difficult, too. People book things years in advance. I think everything about it is difficult."
Actress Katrina Bowden engaged
Actress Katrina Bowden is engaged to marry her musician boyfriend Ben Jorgensen after he proposed over the weekend.
The "30 Rock" star announced the happy news on the red carpet at the Screen Actors Guild Awards on Sunday, revealing her partner popped the question the day before.
Bowden, who was wearing her new engagement ring, told E! host Giuliana Rancic, "I was so shocked. And I said, 'Oh my God,' and I hugged him… He said, 'Is that a yes?'
"We talked about it, so it wasn't out of nowhere, but I was so surprised. That's why I forgot to say 'yes' at first."

*It's all about healing for Evelyn Lozada.
And in the process, the reality star is going to attend her first high school prom with one of her fans.
"I was just asked to the prom by one of my Twitter followers … and I gladly accepted!" Evelyn wrote on her blog.
Anthony Nelson, an 18-year-old student is going to get his wish.
He posted the message: "Since your [sic] single now, wanna go to prom with me," Anthony tweeted.
After Ev agreed to attend, Anthony posted: "Never in my life have I been so happy."
Evelyn is actually really excited about the whole thing, admitting this is one of those moments she gets to take back from her youth.
"I have to say that I'm very excited," she wrote. "The reason why I'm so excited is because I never had the opportunity to attend my own prom. During that time of my life, I was becoming a teenage mom and pregnant with my daughter Shaniece." She also took the time to congratulate Anthony and other high school students walking the stage this year.
For the prom, she's wearing sexy red, while her teenage date is wearing black and white.

Canon PowerShot A530 review
Sep 29, 2006 • Review of Canon PowerShot A530
I only got this camera as a gift after my brother broke my Sony's screen....and I am so sorry I accepted his offer!
The image quality is so bad as to defy belief. The noise on this camera is simply amazingly bad.
And the battery usage? Forget about it...simply too little out of a set of 2600mAh.
I'll give this to my kids to play with. The ease of use , and of course solid construction expected from Canon is okay.
Too much noise on picture. Even at 100% This is unacceptable.
Batteries are eaten up at an alarming rate.
These days video is an important factor even in digital stills. And 10 frames per second on VGA is , frankly , a poor joke on us.
5 megapixels • 1.8″ screen • 35 – 140 mm (4×)
