Hello everybody!
I'm a old WP user/developer, but this is my first post here. I'm sorry for my bad english.
I want to create a mobile site, without using 3rd part plugin. I would like to passing a parameter to my index.php (like mobile=true) and loading a different theme.
index.php -> default_theme
index.php?mobile=true -> another_theme loaded via php
It's possible?
Then I'd like to url rewrite:
/m/{query_string}/ -> /{query_string}/?mobile=true
How I can do it? (My wordpress is already installed in a subfolder, then my htaccess already exists)
Thank you very much,

THE BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL: The Forresters and their friends gathered for Stephanie's farewell party. Stephanie was happy to see Kristen, Taylor, Liam, Steffy, Rick, Caroline, Dayzee, Marcus, Donna, Thorne, Tony and Pam, who helped her celebrate her life. Bill escorted Brooke to the party because she wasn't sure what would happen if Ridge showed up. There were a lot of tears after Eric sang "When Irish Eyes are Smiling" whilst tickling the ivories. Brooke was upset to learn that Stephanie has refused treatment for her cancer. Rick told Hope that he loves Caroline. Caroline slapped Thomas, who made an unwanted pass at her.
DAYS OF OUR LIVES: Nicole was surprised to see her former love, Eric Brady, back in town, and even more surprised to learn that he's now a priest. Sami warned her brother, Eric, to stay away from Kristen, but he offered to help her after realizing that she'd hit rock bottom. Marlena was furious when she found Kristen at the Horton cabin with John, who explained that Kristen missed the last ferry from the island. Daniel hugged Jennifer when she said she wouldn't press legal charges against Nicole. Daniel agreed to consider taking part in a clinical trial that may cure the hand tremors that sidelined his surgical career. To help get E.J. and Sami back together, Kristen stepped down as CEO of Countess Wilhelmina so E.J. could take over and become Sami's boss. Stefano was pleased that E.J. contacted him. After Brady and Kristen argued, he rescued her from a mugger, and was then knocked out by a second mugger. Will and Sonny are back together.
GENERAL HOSPITAL: At the Swiss clinic, "Duke" took off a face mask, revealing to Robin, who accused him of being a fake, that he is the "deceased" Faison. Faison told Robin that he took her captive to make Anna want him once he returned Robin to her, but Robin ruined everything by trying to escape. Faison said he didn't intend to kill Robin, but he won't let her go either. After leaving Robin, Faison went to another room in the clinic where he has been holding the real Duke hostage. Robert Scorpio returned and told Anna that Luke sent him to protect her. An unwitting Anna shared a kiss with a returned Duke (Faison). Michael was angry when Carly had A.J. arrested (he later got out on bail). Sonny threatened A.J. while he was in jail. Tracy had Monica and Alice arrested for assault when they briefly held her prisoner to protect A.J. Patrick heard Sabrina say she has feelings for him. Anna told Sam she's still looking for Jason.
THE YOUNG AND THE RESTLESS: Victor told Billy that he would handle Victoria's kidnapping, but Billy worried that Victor would get her killed. Victoria is being held in a dark room. After learning that Gloworm had been torched, Adam met with Eddie, the firebug he hired, and reminded him he was only supposed to torch abandoned buildings (to cover up Sharon's Newman mansion fire). Chelsea confronted Adam after learning about the fire at Gloworm and asked if he had anything to do with the blaze. Adam told Chelsea that he had paid some people to be witnesses to the Newman mansion inferno. Sharon lied to Noah, who caught her outside his home, saying that she didn't set the Newman mansion fire. Sharon also told Noah that she's started getting professional help. Dr. Watkins told Sharon she's bipolar and must begin medication. Jack, who is in a lot of pain, didn't heed the warning from the "ghost" of his father, John, not to return to work yet.

And finally here's Prince Imran, the Commonwealth Games Federation president, attempting to retrieve the message from the baton to then present to the Queen.
Glasgow 2014 opening ceremony as it happened
- The Queen declares the 20th Games open after a colourful ceremony
- 4,500 athletes from 71 nations/territories paraded into the stadium
- Huge roar greeted Scotland's team into Celtic Park stadium
- Sporting action begins at 08:45 BST on Thursday
Live Reporting
...Firstly it's the Scotland team walking in to the stadium to a phenomenal roar.
For now though it is time to retire for the evening.
Sweet dreams. I hope that the image of John Barrowman emerging from beneath a giant kilt stays safely locked in the subconscious, but it's time to leave you with two abiding images from an action-packed night...
Sir Chris Hoy
Six-time Olympic champion and BBC Sport cycling expert
On trying to open the relay baton, tweets: "Blimey, that was like trying to solve a Rubik's cube! #phew."
Chris McLaughlin
BBC Sport's Commonwealth Games reporter
"The ceremony wasn't always going to be everyone's taste, but I think the organisers this evening will be very happy."

Hannah Miley and Michael Jamieson will be going for gold in the pool for Scotland, an England team pursuit will have Sir Bradley Wiggins chugging along at the front of the train and doubtless other heros will seize their moment of glory.
You'll be able to see them all on BBC television, radio and websites.
BBC Radio 5 live
Former Scotland rugby international Gavin Hastings: "I hope all the athletes who came into the stadium tonight use it as inspiration."
Aimee Lewis
BBC Sport at the opening ceremony in Glasgow
"The Glaswegian sky is lit up by pyrotechnics. Add some confetti, Primal Scream and a traffic cone on top of a monument (Ed, i've no idea) and you have the end to a rollicking opening ceremony and the start of what is likely to be a memorable 10 days."
Gold medals to be won on Thursday
Cycling - track (men's team pursuit and team sprint, women's 500m time trial and Para-sport sprint B tandem)
Gymnastics (rhythmic team event)
Judo (men's -60kg and -66kg, women's -48kg, -52kg and -57kg)

Weightlifting (women's 48kg, men's 56kg)
Most importantly, cue sport.
The first action of the 2014 Commonwealth Games comes at Kelvingrove Lawn Bowls club in less than nine hours away when Scotland take on India at 08:45 BST.
Decathlete Daley Thompson on BBC One: "I am so feeling the love. No matter what happens, Scotland have already won. I am so looking forward to the action now."
John Murray
BBC Radio 5 live commentator at the opening ceremony in Glasgow
"On an evening that has not been short of humour, in a way it was quite fitting that the Prince Imran couldn't get the baton open!"
The Queen plays tribute to Glasgow and declares the Games open.
Cue pyro. Cue Primal Scream's Movin on Up. Cue ticker tape, Cue laser show.
Prince Imran has one last job. Open up the baton and hand the Queen her speech script. It is not happening.
He wrestles with the top of like a weak-wristed pensioner dealing with a recalcitrant jam jar. Finally Sir Chris Hoy comes forward and shows him it is a matter of brain, rather than brawn. The Queen looked like she was offering a bit of advice as well as finally the top is off and the script is delivered to cheers!
Sir Chris Hoy sprints up the step and delivers the baton to the Queen.
Prince Imran, President of the Commonwealth Games Federation, is from Malaysia but his accent is straight from the home counties.
He announces the Queen's baton's arrival back into stadium. It is carried by a Jamaican schoolgirl called Jenica, passed to a group of volunteers who work in Scottish sport and them on to Sir Chris Hoy, via the 97-year-old great uncle who inspired a young Chris to get into sport.
Australian cyclist Anna Meares posts on Facebook: "WOW! Just..... WOW! #openingceremony. I will sleep smiling tonight!"
Councillor Gordon Matheson, Leader of Glasgow City Council, is a man who barely needs a microphone.
He finishes at maximum decibels and registering high on the rhetoric scale.
"We're gathered. In this stadium and in front of television screens across the city and throughout the world. Our time has come. Glasgow 2014. Bring it on."
Scottish First Minister Alex Salmond calls the crowd and athletes together to observe a minute's silence in memory of the 298 people who died when flight MH17 crashed in the Ukraine on 17 July.
Sir Chris Hoy
Six-time Olympic champion and BBC Sport cycling expert
Six-time Olympic cycling champion, with actor and fellow Scot James McAvoy, tweets: What an atmosphere!! Just amazing!
Aimee Lewis
BBC Sport at the opening ceremony in Glasgow
A spectacular sight as thousands of mobile phones light up like glowworms in the night sky. A fun and frolicking curtain-raiser for what should be a fabulous fortnight.
Comedian Billy Connolly reminds the crowd via a video message that this is the first Commonwealth Games since the death of former South African president Nelson Mandela.
He recounts how Mandela was awarded the the Freedom of the City by Glasgow in 1981 while he was still in prison on Robben Island. In 1986 Glasgow renamed St George's Place - the street on which the South African consulate-general was based - after Mandela.
The 1986 Commonwealth games, held in Edinburgh, were boycotted by 32 African, Asian and Caribbean nations over apartheid and the British government's refusal to impose sanctions on South Africa.
England's squash players are clearing enjoying their evening. Adrian Grant tweets: "Rolling with Rod Stewart @nickmatthew"
Right, down to more serious business.
The Commonwealth flag is brought out by athletes representing each of the regions involved in the Games.
Swimming legend Ian Thorpe is there for Oceania, squash queen Nicol David is doing the duties for Asia, while Kenya's double Olympic champion Kip Keino is carrying the banner for Africa.
Celtic fan Rod Stewart, in between his turns, tweets: "I never thought I'd be able to stand in the Celtic Board Room in front of the trophy case. . . with no pants."
Working in the International Space Station looks like a laugh doesn't it?
After a zero-gravity kickabout last month to celebrate the World Cup, they are back via satellite link to wish everyone well in Glasgow, lobbing the microphone between themselves through the floaty vacuum. The wags.
Rebecca Adlington
Four-time Olympic medallist and BBC Sport swimming expert tweets
Amazing Opening Ceremony @Glasgow2014 - emotional, fun, inspiring, energetic, colourful & brilliant! Going to be a great couple of weeks.
Eight British Isles contenders to watch
Want to know more about the big British medal hopes in Glasgow? Then why not let our man Nick Hope give you the lowdown on eight of the finest competitors from the UK who will hopefully be stepping on to a podium in the Commonwealth Games.
Team England diver Sarah Barrow posts on Instagram: "I made it to the Opening Ceremony! @weRengland."
Aimee Lewis
BBC Sport at the opening ceremony in Glasgow
"Middle-aged men, pensioners, spry twenty somethings are all on their feet dancing to the Shamen. And then they sit down once Rod appears. They'll return to their feet soon, they're probably just waiting for We are Sailing. Gavin Hastings, smiling widely, is on his feet however, capturing the moment with his camera. Soak it all in, Gav."
Fireworks punch the sky and Rod Stewart has slipped his handlers, sneaking back on stage for another number.
A couple of Canada athletes clap along, Team Scotland nod gently, no indication of what Botswana make of the show.
It is "new material" as well.
Huw Edwards
BBC News presenter on BBC One:
"I love the way they have come in and been taken aback by the welcome, the noise, the ovation. Yes they are the host nation but it is still something to come in to a stadium like this. I love the sense of pride. It is not just about the city of Glasgow but about the nation of Scotland and where it sees its place in the world."
BBC Radio 5 live
Former Scotland rugby international Gavin Hastings: "The Scottish athletes have been blown away and I'm sure this moment will live with them for the rest of their lives. They will feel very lucky to have been part of this, and I don't think they will be struggling for motivation after this."
Clare Balding
BBC Sport presenter
The BBC Sport presenter tweets: What a roar from the crowd as Scotland come into the stadium.
Ones to watch: Scotland
Scotland's poster boy Michael Jamieson will be expected to turn Olympic 200m breaststroke silver into gold in Glasgow when he competes on the opening night of the Games.
Britain had Ennis at London 2012, Scotland have Eilidh Child at Glasgow 2014. The 400m hurdler carries her nations track hopes on her shoulders as she looks to improve on Commonwealth silver in 2010.
Katie Archibald will lead the Scottish cycling challenge in Glasgow. Archibald, who was part of the British team that won the World team pursuit gold earlier this year, has set herself quite a challenge by competing in the 3,000m individual pursuit, points and scratch races on the track and the time trial and road race on the road.
John Murray
BBC Radio 5 live commentator at the opening ceremony in Glasgow
"The Scottish athletes are punching the air to a fantastic reception as they walk into the stadium. There are tears in the eyes of some competitors and it's a moment of huge pride for them."
Scotland's flag bearer
It's a proud moment for Edinburgh judoka Euan Burton as he brandishes the Saltire at Celtic Park.
The 35-year-old multiple world and European medal-winner has confessed to watching videos on the internet of Sir Chris Hoy wielding the standard at the London Olympics in an attempt to hone his technique.
That said it takes a brave man to adopt the one-handed approach of the feted cyclist...
Scotland wait until the last of the Welsh athletes clear off the Celtic Park surface before they stroll out into into a storm of tickertape. Controversial pastel tartan kilts and shawls are all proudly displayed.
Aimee Lewis
BBC Sport at the opening ceremony in Glasgow
The Welsh team walks in and the music being played is Push the Feeling On by Nightcrawlers?! Madness. Scotland - we gave you Tom Jones!
Here come the hosts...
Huw Edwards
BBC News presenter on BBC One:
"I feel this is a very big moment tonight. I know there is a bigger cheer to come but I'm feeling good about Welsh prospects here at Glasgow."
Ones to watch: Wales
Welsh cyclist Elinor Barker has already tasted gold in 2014 as part of the Great Britain side that won gold in team pursuit at the World Track Cycling Championships in February and the 19-year-old is a a big medal hope for her country in Glasgow.
As is swimmer Jazz Carlin, who will be chasing three in the women's freestyle at 200m, 400m and 800m. She is bidding to be the first gold medal-winning Welsh female swimmer in 40 years.
Current world number one flyweight Andrew Selby is a huge medal prospect for Wales. He may have missed out on a medal at London 2012, but he has the class to put that right in Glasgow.
Wales' flag bearer
This is quite a moment for Frankie Jones, given that the Welsh flag bearer had to learn to walk again after undergoing hip surgery following the London Olympics.
That, in part, has contributed to the rhythmic gymnast's decision to retire after Glasgow at the age of just 23 but she will leave the sport with plenty of memories. This is her third Commonwealth Games for Wales, having finished 12th overall in Melbourne in 2006, then won silver in Delhi four years later in the hoop discipline.
Not bad for someone who was born and raised in Northamptonshire but qualifies through her family ties to Neath.
Wales are looking pretty slick. Smart suits with classy patriotic red touches.
Aimee Lewis
BBC Sport at the opening ceremony in Glasgow
"The rows next to me have woken from their mid-parade slumber now the European regions are walking in. The gentleman who gave out a big old yawn not five minutes ago is now moving his head from side to side to some Technotronic. Another gentleman, in tartan trousers, is watching the Maltese team's arrival through a pair of binoculars. The Scottish team should prepare to be hit by a wall of sound."
Ones to watch: Northern Ireland
Northern Ireland's medal hopes are led by 2010 light-flyweight boxing champion Paddy Barnes, who also won bronze medals at both the Beijing and London Olympics and opted to stay amateur in order to defend his Commonwealth crown in Glasgow.
David Calvert is making a record 10th appearance in the Games, having first competed in in Edmonton in 1978. He is Northern Ireland's most successful competitor with four gold and four bronze medals in the Full Bore Rifle singles and pairs events.
Pole vaulter Zoe Brown comes into these Games in red-hot form having recently broken the Northern Irish record. Her clearance of 4.45m is the second best by a Commonwealth Games competitor this year.
Hazel Irvine
BBC Sport presenter on BBC One:
"It has been a great week for Northern Ireland. Rory McIlroy wins the Claret Jug at the Open and they have brought their biggest team ever here to Glasgow."
Northern Ireland's flag bearer
The man parading the Northern Ireland flag is cyclist Martyn Irvine. The 29-year-old from Newtownards won gold in the scratch race at last year's World Track Championships and a bronze in the team pursuit at the last Commonwealth Games in Delhi.
Irvine is expected to take part in four events in Glasgow but he clearly did not expect the honour, saying: "There are a lot of other athletes in the team with bigger CVs."
Northern Ireland are out. Green blazers, murky chinos and some big aviator shades for some. Strong.
Guernsey emerge to Aphex Twin's Window Licker. Small team, big tune.
Athletes from three British Isles crown dependencies are making a rare sporting appearance in their own colours. Shooters Steve Le Couilliard and Tim Kneale are carrying the flags of Jersey and Isle of Man respectively, while squash player Chris Simpson is the man leading Guernsey around Celtic Park.
Hazel Irvine
BBC Sport presenter on BBC One:
"Some very familiar names from London 2012 in the England team, still going strong, like Nicola Adams, David Weir, Bradley Wiggins, Mo Farah, Greg Rutherford, the list goes on and on. Sir Bradley will be back on the track for the first time since Beijing."
John Murray
BBC Radio 5 live commentator
"Don't you think England would have been better with pinstripes and bowler hats? I think I could have come up with a better uniform idea in two minutes."
Games Moments: Daley's perfect 10
We have trawled the video archives and throughout Glasgow 2014 will recall some of the moments from the history of the Commonwealth Games that rocked the world.
At the 2010 Games in Delhi England's Tom Daley scored seven perfect 10s on his way to a diving gold.
The 16-year-old went on to win the 10m platform title in Delhi with a narrow victory over Australian Olympic champion Matthew Mitcham to add to his earlier gold in the 10m synchro. Two years later, Daley took bronze in the Olympic 10m final at London 2012.
Ones to watch: England
The Tour de France's loss is the Commonwealth Games' gain as Bradley Wiggins returns to track cycling in the men's team pursuit along with the likes of Ed Clancy and Steven Burke, who won gold at London 2012.
For a long time it looked as though Glasgow would be deprived of the chance to see Mo Farah in action, but the double Olympic champion is in Scotland and raring to go. Farah is aiming to become the first person ever to achieve the 5,000m and 10,000m double at the European and World Championships, along with the Olympic and Commonwealth Games.
England's hopes in the diving are led by Olympic medallist Tom Daley, who will be hoping to make a metaphorical splash in the men's 10m platform and synchronised 10m platform.
England's flag bearer
The man wafting the Cross of St George is three-time world squash champion Nick Matthew.
A double gold-medal winner at Delhi the Delhi Commonwealth Games four years ago, the 33-year-old was voted for by his England team-mates.
The Sheffield native is the second Yorkshire athlete to carry the flag after Karen Briggs, a judoka from Hull, did so in the Auckland Games 24 years ago.
England come out and they got a hearty cheer from the Glasgow crowd. Extraordinary times indeed.
Last up is Europe, with Cyprus the first out in some blue and orange trackkies.

What is RDM?
Raima Database Manager is a relational database management system used by product developers. It is a linkable library of functions that becomes part of the application program. It has multiple APIs available to C, C++, C# or Java programmers. Originally released in 1984 as db_VISTA, it has been continuously improved, modernized and marketed for over 30 years. The two original developers are currently working at Raima.
- Safe data storage, recoverable even if the computer crashes.
- Transactional (all-or-nothing) updates.
- Multi-user, multi-computer configurability if necessary - or just one.
- Data structuring and relationships, full SQL queries.
Why Buy Raima's New In-Memory Database Platform
With Raima's new in-memory database version, Raima Database Manager (RDM) 14.0, data is up to date and reliably available in real time.
We have developed a brand new in-memory database platform that has the potential to transform your enterprise application so that it may support your needs for access to critical information within time constraints, thereby allowing you to make quick and reliable decisions.
RDM v. 14.0 contains an all new data storage engine optimized specifically for working with in-memory resident data sets. Our new in-memory database (IMDB) allows for significant performance gains and a reduction in processing requirements when compared to older in-memory or on-disk implementations.
To increase performance and reduce the amount of data processed, Raima has implemented a "packed" row format in the database engine. These packs contains rows which are byte streams that are both compact and portable across different OS and processor platforms. This allows application developers to develop on one platform and deploy their application on another platform. Develop once, deploy anywhere! This greatly decrease time to market and ease of use.

Video: What's New in RDM 14
The v14.0 release of Raima's RDM database solution continues to build on its foundational success as one of the world's leading database management systems. It has always been designed for speed but two features bring it to a whole new level, both the new database file format decreasing database size through variability and compression and a new fully optimized architecture for databases that reside in-memory.

Four days later, no money was refunded into my account and no label was sent by email. I called them back. I was put on hold for over thrity minutes to be told, "it was being working on" and " that I would get a call back within 24 to 48 hours". I stated I really needed that money badly with it being Christmas and excepted them to call me. Needless to say, I did not received a call.
The next day I called back and asked to speak with either the of the first two people that I had talked to before since this was now the third person. I explained for the third time, that $114.11 had been deducted from my checking account, an internet service had been set up for me without my knowledge with their company and I did not want it. He agreed that it was been worked on that they were aware that Direct TV had set this up without my knowledge and I was going to be paid in full. He was going to put me on hold for a moment and would the number I gave him be a good number to call back on. I asked immediately to talk to a supervisor. He told me NO, I could not talk to one. I asked why. He told me I was not allowed to. I told him that I had already ran up a big cell phone bill by being put on hold and could not be put on hold again for long periods of time, he guaranteed me it would only be 2 minutes! He was right. After 2 minutes, he disconnected the line and hung up on me and I was never called back by anyone.....
The next day I went to my bank and asked if I could file a Dispute Form against them and showed her all the paper work that I had with names and times and dates that I had talked to Clear employees. She immediately called Clear. They in addition gave her the run-a-round for over 40 minutes on the telephone. They did tell her they were sending a shipping label right then, we immediately checked the email while they were on the phone and it was not one ( and she called them out on it) they told her it would be coming with the day or so. I finally got the shipping label late that afternoon (it was Friday) I got it in the mail to them that day. The 12th of December and they received the 14th. They try their best the make it so people do not return with the 30 time period and therefore and locked into a contract .
My banked told them that they would go after them for the money. As of today, I have received $103.47 of my $114.11 that they withdrew. I called them again and told Azsa that they still owed me the $10.64. She stated that she issued a credit #416695933 and that it shoud be in my bank in the next day or so.
These people Rip You Off, without even thinking thinking twice. They are trained to lie. The Better Business Bureau has over 3,000 reports on them however they still have a A+ rating??????? This is ridulous. Direct TV was to give me a bundle TV, Internet service and never mentioned Clear for a single low price. When I called them and mentioned Clear they did not know anything about this or their pricing, I can only igmagine it was the sales girl that started this mess.

Skill Level Advanced
When we're constructing an interior rendering, anything we can do to save time and preserve quality is very valuable. I've fine tuned my lighting, materials and final gather, my bounce lighting quality. And I'm almost ready to render, however, I know I'm going to take a hit in time in rendering that animated camera. So what I'll do is look at caching that final gather and seeing if I can reuse it in here. I'll switch over to the animated camera, pressing C for camera and choosing camera ani. Now I'll go into my render setup, and in here I'll scroll down or roll up final gather in GI and look in the Reuse section.
What I'm going to do in here is to look at different ways of caching that final gather. There's a couple of different modes available when we choose to cache this, a single file and once per frame. The difference is fairly straightforward. If we're only animating a camera or running still images roughly in the same direction, we can use the single file option and cash the final gather once, and then recall it for all those frames. As long as the camera animation isn't too drastic, like flipping around a hundred and eighty degrees, this will work.
So this animated camera doing a slow dolly in and nodal pan to look up the stairs is ideal. If we have animated objects, we can cash this final gather once per frame. What this lets us do if we need, is to cash the final gather at a smaller size, for example, and project it onto a larger file, maybe working at 960 by 540 for a 1280 by 720 frame. I'll choose the single file only option, and what I'm going to do is in the final gather map, incrementally add those points and go in and name that file.
Right now it's called temp.fgm and I'll delete it by pressing X to delete, and then go in and name it. It'll browse out to the render assets, and I'll name this one lobby. It'll call it an FGM and it's not necessarily a map like an image you can read. Rather it's a final gather cache, and so it's simply a file to hold that lighting data. I'll click Save and check generate final gather map file now. My final gather cached. It didn't actually go through the rendering stage, because it was just for final gather.
The advantage in doing this is, is we can run our final gather with a much higher accuracy, because we're only doing it once and then save it and load that in. Loading in the same high accuracy final gather, time and time again. Now what I'll do, once I've run it, is drop down here under the final gather map section, and read the final gather points from the existing file. This is now reading that FGM I've cached, so when I go to render this particular frame, it'll jump straight into rendering. I'll show what this looks like.
I'll click Render Production, and re-render that daylight scene. As you can see, I didn't cache the global illumination, so it jumps into photon emission, and then will freeze for a sec, load the final gather, and jump straight into rendering. It's a much faster render. And even if it takes an extra hour in front to render the final gather, we get a time savings, per frame, of minutes possibly. And this really translates into a lot of time. Think of it this way. This animation has 72 frames. If I take that render time from eight minutes down to four minutes, times 72, I'm saving 288 minutes of rendering time.
Remember, when you are doing this the camera can't flip around drastically. And if your running just a single file, there can't be moving objects. If you need, you can cache that final gather once per frame and do it at a lower resolution and then open that or reload it when you are rendering the hi-res frames, and this is another way to same time. My render is done, and I'm looking at a much lower render time. This is 2:31 a frame, compared to nearly eight minutes previously. Caching the final gather has its advantages, where we can run it once very very high and then save it and reuse it time and time again to speed up our render time.
Just make sure you're very careful about how you're caching and what's animated or not in the scene. When you're ready to render out your passes then and render out your scene make sure you go into the render setup. And in the render setup, in the Common tab, bring that image size back up. Here it is at 1280 by 720. If I was going to render this full, I should make sure to cache that final gather full size, take the time hit once, and then render out those full frames with the correct lighting. In here, because I'm going to render an animation, I'll put it in as the active segment, one to 72, and scroll down and make sure that frame is named and has the correct extension chosen in the render output section.
I'm using OpenEXR files because I want the additional G-buffer channels of my material ID, object ID, z depth, velocity, transparency, and render node ID. Lastly, before you hit render, go into the Renderer tab and check on the sampling. Right now, we're dealing in a decent, but moderately low quality anti-aliasing. I'll boost this up to a quality of 0.75. It'll take a little longer per frame, but it'll get a better quality overall. You also may want to consider the blur you're using.
If you are applying depth of field in Post, you may not need the softness that a Gaussian blur gives, and you may be able to choose Triangle, for example, or a Box blur, for a quicker render. This may require some tests and is a great reason to run a test, get those G-buffers out, check how it looks all the way through Post and come back and use that to calibrate how much quality you're putting into your rendering. When you're all ready, you can hit render. Then relax, or render over night, and come back to a sequence of well constructed interior images.

on October 16, 2013 - 5:31 PM
U.S. stocks surged and the yen weakened against all major peers as the Senate crafted a deal to end the government shutdown and raise the debt ceiling. Rates on Treasury bills retreated while energy led commodities higher.
The Standard & Poor's 500 Index climbed 1.4 percent to 1,721.54 at 4 p.m. in New York, erasing yesterday's drop and rising to within 0.3 percent of its last closing record. The Stoxx Europe 600 Index added 0.2 percent after earlier losing 0.6 percent. The yen fell 0.6 percent versus the dollar. Rates on Oct. 24 Treasury bills lost 27 basis points to 0.20 percent, erasing an earlier surge. The 10-year note yield decreased six basis points to 2.67 percent while the S&P GSCI Index of commodities climbed 0.8 percent as oil rallied 1.1 percent.
The Senate and House could vote as soon as today on the agreement that would end the 16-day-old government shutdown and allow the U.S. to continue borrowing, a day before its authority lapses. House Republicans today signaled that they will let it pass largely with Democratic votes. Senate opponents of the agreement, including Texas Republican Ted Cruz, said they won't stall a vote.
"Our clients always assumed the deal would get done somewhere around the last minute," Dan Greenhaus, chief global strategist at BTIG LLC in New York, said in a phone interview. "There was never really a deviation from that view. I don't think anybody should or will get too excited about a short term deal. We'll just have to deal with this idiocy again towards the end of the year. That shouldn't make anybody happy."
Senate leaders stepped in after House Republicans' last-minute plan to avert a U.S. default collapsed. Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas President Richard Fisher said the central bank could reduce the turmoil from any U.S. debt default, which he said is unlikely. Fitch Ratings put the government of the world's biggest economy on watch for a possible credit downgrade yesterday, citing lawmakers' inability to forge a deal.
The White House press secretary said President Barack Obama supports the deal. Representative Kevin Brady, a Texas Republican, said on Bloomberg Television that he thinks House Republicans' inability to come up with a plan to raise the debt limit meant that House Speaker John Boehner would have to accept whatever Senate leaders agreed upon.
"If Boehner is going to bring this to a vote on the floor, then we're closer to getting a resolution to this, and the markets are pricing that in," Stephen Wood, New York-based chief market strategist at Russell Investments, where he helps oversee about $237 billion, said by phone.
The S&P 500 rebounded from yesterday's 0.7 percent drop as all 10 of its main industry groups advanced, led by financial, health-care and telephone shares. Bank of America Corp. jumped 2.2 percent as lower legal expenses and loan losses helped profit rebound. Mattel Inc. increased 1 percent after reporting earnings that topped analyst estimates.
JPMorgan Chase & Co., Goldman Sachs Group Inc. and Visa Inc. jumped at least 2.2 percent to lead gains in 27 of 30 stocks in the Dow Jones Industrial Average, sending the gauge up more than 205 points.
The Nasdaq Composite Index climbed 1.2 percent to the highest level in 13 years while the Russell 2000 Index and Dow Jones Transportation Average both closed at records.

Exercise # 5 Instinctive Mixing
When you are instinctive mixing it helps to imagine the direction that you want to move the color. Once you know the direction, you can find the path. The "path" is the imaginary line that runs between the color you have and the color that you want. If you extend this line across the color sorter, any color along that line can be used to move the color to where you want it to be. … more→

Kato Clay Tasting Tiles
Here is the first step in making the tasting tiles using Kato Clay. I used Yellow, Blue, Turquoise, Magenta and Red. Greens: The first mixture of Yellow with Blue came out slightly muted.

When you have bad credit, your options are limited. You won't be able to get a credit card or personal loan from the bank. Traditional lenders don't want to work with you when your credit scores are too low. If a situation has come up where you need cash fast, you might want to consider personal loans for people with bad credit.
With a bad credit personal loans, your credit score doesn't matter. The lender isn't even going to take it into consideration. This type of loan is based on the amount of your paycheck and the only requirement is that you have a steady source of income. You will also need a checking account.
The lender will loan you money based on how much you get paid and when you are paid again, you pay back the loan. The process is fast and easy. The approval rate is high and the application is short and easy to fill out. You get a decision in seconds and most loans fund the same or next business day so you get your money quick.
You won't find a faster or easier loan process and you can do whatever you want with the money. Since the interest rate tends to be higher on bad credit loans, you want to try to only use them when you have an emergency. It is also a good idea to pay them back as quickly as possible so you pay less interest.
With personal loans for bad credit, you can get the emergency money you need quickly and easily. These loans make a lot of sense when you need cash fast. Now you can get a loan even if you have bad credit.
Despite its infancy, the online lending industry is rapidly growing into a dominant source of cash loans in today's tight financial landscape. There is no doubt that the unparalleled success of online lending comes from its capacity to effectively address the burgeoning need for a fast, convenient and efficient lending experience. However, beyond this, there are other factors that enable web-based lenders to experience phenomenal growth and stay competitive in the credit market. A flexible online cashloan is only one of them.
About Quick Cash Loans
Quick cash loans are something that you get if you have an emergency situation and you're not able to find someone who can, or who would be willing to lend you the money. How quick are these loans? In one word: quick. And if you apply now,you will usually get a response within a few hours, and if you are able to send the necessary documents,you could have the money the next day. This is so different from banks where you are only able to get the money after a few days. But here's something we would like you to know: there's a price for these loans.
What we mean is that you pay for the convenience of being able to get the money quickly with high-interest rates. And by high-interest rates, we do mean figures that are in the range of thirty percent for the life of the loan. And it is a short life. You pay for the loan from two weeks to one month. IF you do the math on a two-week loan, you will see that the interest could be become as high as 60 percent, especially if you do not pay on time and pay after a month.
With that in mind, we would like to encourage you to really think about it before apply for a quick cash loan. There's a price that you pay for it. Make sure to exhaust other sources of funds first, like your family and friends, before applying for a loan. If you can't find anyone who can lend you the money, then get a loan.
The good thing about it is that there are many lenders out there that are vying for your business. IF you look hard enough you will be able to find a lender that charges a lower interest rate than the others and offers friendlier terms as well.
Go to Google and search for "quick cash loans". You will see just how many lenders there are. Please take note that the money you get is not free money, it is debt that needs to be repaid. IF you are not able to repay the money, it will reflect on your credit report. If you have a bad enough credit score, non-payment will only make it worse. This is why you need to be sure you can afford to repay the loan before applying for it. But if you're just like most people, you should be able to repay it since the loan amounts are not high. And most lenders are only willing to lend up to $1,000.
There was a time in the past when people sought loans sharks for some quick cash. Quick cash loans are loans sharks, however, their bite is not as lethal. They will only report your non-payment to the credit bureaus so that it will reflect on your credit score. Definitely, they will not be knocking on your door to demand payment.
Emergency Cash
When you're in need of emergency cash, few services are more useful than fast cash loans services and payday loan lenders. Of course, most people are aware that life can present a variety of unexpected emergencies that can be quite expensive to deal with – so when your savings aren't as large as you'd like, but you still need some emergency cash, then using fast cash loans services is often the best solution to the problem.
But what exactly is an online cash loan service? First of all, most of these loans will be classed as unsecured personal loans. Fortunately, this means you do not need to secure the loan with any collateral, such as your house or car – and you do not need a cosigner or any kind of security or collateral to back up your loan. However, because of this fact, the interest rates can be astonishingly high – so it's very important to make sure you can make the payments before you decide to take the loan out in the first place.
Additionally, it's worth noting that you will not need a good credit rating to be able to get these loans – and lenders tend to not take this into consideration at all. Instead, they simply need to see that you have a steady and reliable job that gives you enough of a monthly salary to afford your basic living costs and pay off the loan at a reliable rate. If you show this proof, then you should have no trouble at all when it comes to securing fast cash loans from a payday loan service.
But how much money are you likely to borrow from these services? In general, most services will allow you to borrow anywhere from $100-$2000 – but this amount can vary greatly based on the amount of money you are earning each month.
The key thing to remember is that you need to keep a close eye on the interest rate you will be asked to pay. It's not uncommon for payday loans to have an interest rate of up to 500% per year, so this just goes to show that you can find yourself in a very difficult financial situation if you do not have the means to pay off the loan.
Fortunately, if you use one of the many online payday loan calculators on the Internet, you should be able to calculate all of your monthly earnings and expenses, and work out the maximum amount you can safely borrow.
By taking this step to protect yourself, you can rest assured that you will experience the many benefits that fast cash loans have to offer, without having to express any of the drawbacks.
Overall, it's clear to see that taking advantage of a payday loan service can be a very efficient and effective way to get yourself out of a difficult financial situation. Regardless of whether you need to pay for car repairs, pay medical bills, or even purchase a luxury vacation – using these services can be very advantageous when you're in need of additional cash.
Save Money
If you have bad credit, you know how difficult it can be to get a loan. No one wants to lend to you and you can't get a loan no matter how many loans you apply for. It can be hard when you have an emergency and you need to find a way to pay for it and you can't get anyone to lend to you. Bad credit cash loans are the solution and they are easy and fast to apply for.
You can use bad credit loans for any purpose and they are easy and fast to get approved for. All you have to do is fill out a quick application that only takes a few minutes to complete. You just need to give some basic personal information and your application will go right to the lender. Most approvals take just seconds and once your application is approved, you will get your funds the next business day. They are deposited right into your checking account and you can start using them however you wish.
The great thing about a bad credit loan is that you get to bypass going through a credit check which is something you don't want when you are dealing with a bad credit report. It is easy to get approved no matter what your credit score is and no one is going to turn you down unless you don't have a job.
You never know what is going to happen and emergencies can happen at any time. It is crucial to be prepared for them and know how you can get money when you don't have any money in the bank. Bad credit loans allow you to get the money you need fast and you don't have to do anything to to improve your credit.
As long as you have a job or other source of income you can get your loan. You also need to be over 18 and have a checking account. The lender will put the money right into your account and you can pay it back over time. However, the best approach is to pay it back as soon as you get paid so you can avoid paying so much interest.
These loans have a high interest rate that will cost you money in the end, so make sure that you can pay the loan back as fast as you can. Don't ask your lender to set up a payment arrangement or any other type of arrangement or it is going to cost you big time. Bad credit cash loans can get you out of any emergency and they are easy to get approved for.
If you need money for a big emergency like a car repair or a medical bill, turn to cash loans for the credit you need. Your credit score doesn't matter and you are going to be approved no matter what happens. These loans are perfect and will help you out of your situation.
Types Of Loans
Do you need up to $1000 fast? If you could get the quick cash loan you want, would you be happy getting it in about 15 minutes?
There are ways to get super fast, super generous loans and all you need to do is prove your income and bank account information to qualify. You do not need excellent credit to get a decent loan.
Most quick cash loans can be given to you based on how much money you earn. You also never want to borrow much more than you need. You do not want to get into debt that you might have trouble paying off.
One thing about quick loans is that many lenders offer applications for the loans right online. Simply fill them out as accurately as possible, submit them and when you are approved, you could have your money in your bank in as little as 15 minutes.
This will not happen if it is a weekend or bank holiday, of course. Many lenders can also get you your fast cash without needing to check your credit. This can be an added benefit to you. When some lenders check your credit, they can leave a mark on your score. This is called a hard inquiry and it can lower your score a point or two.
When a lender does not check your credit to qualify you, you can avoid this problem. Your payments will not be reported to credit agencies, however. If you make payments on time, you will not raise your credit by doing so.
Yet, if you need quick cash loans for a dental emergency, vet bill or car repair, these loans can get you out of a jam. You can pay your loan off in a short time and save on interest, too.
Personal Loans For Bad Credit To Build Up Your Finances
When applying for personal loans for bad credit, it's important to consider all the different types of loans out there. You want to match the loan with your need for the loan. For example, are you trying to simply rebuild your credit, or do you have a financial emergency? If you're simply trying to rebuild your credit, then there isn't going to likely be a reason for you to take out a bad credit loan with an astronomical interest rate.
Unfortunately, when you need money fast for unexpected expenses, you might be in need of one of those loans. You'll have to accept the interest rate, and of course this means looking for the best one and the best terms and conditions in general. Of course, when you don't know where to turn, you can end up dealing with a company that takes you to the cleaners.
These days, payday loans and personal loans for bad credit are much more widely available from multiple lenders with variations in how they handle these types of loans. How would you like to make installment payments every two weeks or once a month? This is one way you can look at getting a new loan if you have bad credit.
Always make sure you pay attention to detail, since likely you're going to be applying for these loans online without any further guidance. After you have reviewed all loan terms and are happy with what you see, it's time to get those funds into your account.
Remember that you always need to be working on improving your credit so that you can get better loan terms in the future. When you get a loan with a company who reports to the credit bureau, then you know you're going to be working on your credit history.

Devon Alexander: Amir Khan is Better Than Kell Brook
By Bill "Two Scoops" Emes
IBF welterweight champion Devon Alexander considers Amir Khan (27-3, 19KOs) to be a better fighter than his domestic rival Kell Brook (29-0, 19KOs). Alexander is scheduled to defend his title against Brook, the IBF's mandatory challenger. Their fight was postponed twice due to injuries and a new date will be finalized shortly. Khan and Brook are heated rivals in the UK and there is a lot of money at stake if Brook captures a world title and fights Khan on British soil.
"Amir Khan, he has the better skills and the better smarts. He fought the better opponents, the better oppossition. And I saw him handle them well. Don't get me wrong, Kell Brook is a good fighter, he's a solid fighter.....an up and coming fighter. You guys think he's special, I don't. There is nothing special that I see about him," Alexander said.
Khan is more proven, but that doesn't make him the better fighter imho. Let's see how Brook handles his test first.Comment by boxheadbox on 02-19-2013

Jason Valdez is no stranger to US police. His latest brush with the law, however, may have been the most public.
An armed Valdez, 36, held a woman hostage at a Utah motel in a tense 16-hour, overnight stand-off with SWAT teams, all while finding time to keep his family and friends updated on Facebook, authorities said.

Man updates Facebook during siege
Jason Valdez kept the public up-to-date by posting on his Facebook wall as he kept a woman hostage in a motel room in Utah.
He even got some help from the outside over the social network: A friend posted that a SWAT officer was hiding in the bushes.
"Thank you homie," Valdez replied. "Good looking out."
When officers swarmed the room, Valdez shot himself in the chest with a handgun, Ogden police said. He was in critical condition.
The Associated Press reviewed Valdez's Facebook profile page on Tuesday. Police believe he wrote the messages during the stand-off.
It wasn't immediately clear, however, whether police were following the posts in real-time, though the department spokeswoman said officers routinely search the internet and other sources for background on suspects.
In all, Valdez made six posts and added at least a dozen new friends.
His family and friends responded with 100 comments. Some people offered words of support, and others pleaded for him to "do the right thing".
Court records show Valdez has a criminal history, including convictions for aggravated assault and domestic violence in front of a child.
In March, prosecutors filed felony and misdemeanour drug possession charges against Valdez. A judge issued a warrant for Valdez's arrest after he missed a June 1 preliminary hearing in the case.
On Friday afternoon, Ogden police tried to serve Valdez with a felony drug warrant for the missed court appearance.
I'm currently in a standoff ... kinda ugly, but ready for whatever,
Valdez barricaded himself inside the Western Colony Inn.
"I'm currently in a standoff ... kinda ugly, but ready for whatever," Valdez wrote in his first post at 11.23pm local time. "I love u guyz and if I don't make it out of here alive that I'm in a better place and u were all great friends."
Valdez said in posts that he was with a woman named Veronica. Police described her as a hostage.
In his posts, Valdez told friends when police shut off the power that his "hostage" was fine - and with him willingly - and that police are jeopardising her life by their actions.
At 2.04am, Valdez posted two pictures of himself and the woman.
"Got a cute 'Hostage' huh," Valdez wrote of the photographs.
At 3.48am, one of Valdez's friends posted that police had a "gun ner in the bushes stay low". Valdez thanked him in a reply.
The final post was at 7.25am on Saturday: "Well i was lettin this girl go but these dumb bastards made an attempt to come in after i told them not to, so i popped off a couple more shots and now were startin all over again it seems ..."
SWAT officers stormed Valdez's room about 90 minutes later. Police never fired, Ogden Lieutenant Danielle Croyle said.
Police believe that responses from Valdez's friend gave him an advantage.
Authorities are now discussing whether some of Valdez' sfriends should be arrested and charged with obstruction of justice for hampering a police investigation.
"We're not sure yet how to deal with it," said Croyle.
"We're talking about it and trying to figure out how do we address the kind of conflict that it presents," Croyle said.
Valdez could be facing new charges stemming from his actions during the stand-off, including firing his handgun at police, Croyle said.

Cher Steve. Ton article est intéressant et je trouve l'adage "une image vaut mille mots" intéressant. Power point est très utile trop de power point ne tue pas power point ? Tout le monde aujourd'hui utilise power point, on s'attend à des images et si on n'en a pas, le même contenu est perçu différemment. J'ai le souvenir qu'à Paris, j'ai présenté mes travaux sans power point. Les gens ont besoin de guide de lecture, ce qui est pratique avec power point mais est-ce que power point ne finit pas par abrutir les gens ? Une séance sans image et les gens sont perdus. Les gens finissent par devenir fainéants. Où est le sens de mots, des phrases ? Où est l'écoute active ? Si on continue comme ça, les gens ne feront plus l'effort d'une écoute active, vont devenir fainéant, on va finir par avoir des meetings de candidats à la présidentielle qui vont eux aussi se mettre à utiliser power point ?! Power point pour ordonner les idées oui, mais trop d'animations à la façon des cartoons, non.
I think you are on to something. In our presentations and work with the company, we've been shifting more and more to visual communication, including the use of information graphics. Last week, we had four of our project teams present their projects using only 1 hand drawn sketh - and it was wildly popular! We then showed on to a client to describe the challenges of the project.
Keep up the use of visual aids... Not just PPT, but video, handouts, hand drawn sketches...
Lynn Ann
Steve, this is great. Using visuals in business and education is definitely where we're headed, and the subject of "visual thinking and communication" are skills that need to be examined and developed. We're seeing this all over. A few resources you might want to check out:
Slide:ology http://www.amazon.com/slide-ology-Science-Creating-Presentations/dp/0596522347
Glad to know you're part of the movement to change the world (and powerpoint) through visuals.
We see the same phenomenon every day in our Rosslyn Innovation Center. It is a Highly Immersive Visual Environment (HIVE) and sometimes we can literally hear a sigh in the room if someone puts up a slide deck. Fascinating to watch.
