Cutting 'em to Size
|Image: Dileep Prakash for Forbes India
|Dhanendra Kumar, Competition Commission of India Chairman
Name: Dhanendra Kumar
Age: 62 years
Interests: Music, Indian Art and Culture
Qualification: An Indian Administrative Service (IAS) officer (1968 batch). Physics (Electronics) graduate from University of Allahabad.
Work Experience: Resident director of India Investment Centre, London, from 1983 to 1986; Kumar joined the World Bank as executive director in charge of India, Bangladesh, Bhutan and Sri Lanka. He was chairman and managing director, Rural Electrification Corporation, under the Ministry of Power from May 2002 to October 2002. Additional secretary, Department of Telecommunication and secretary, Telecom Commission from September 1998 to May 2002.
When does competition become unhealthy?
We see competition as the process of rivalry among businesses to win customers. It is expected that the process of competition should bring in the best — what is best in terms of prices and quality — where the consumer should have either choice. We do not define competition in terms of market share. Nor is there a threshold except in the case of mergers and acquisitions. For instance, in section 5 of the Competition Act which deals with M&As, we have defined thresholds of Rs. 1,000 crores of assets or Rs. 3,000 crores turnover.
Markets today are global; therefore enterprises need to be of a certain minimum size to be able to compete in the global market place. Do you fragment domestic competition such that a company remains a pygmy or do you encourage it to push for greater market share in its global ambition?
It is not our concern to check monopolies – that was the concept under the Monopolies and Restrictive Trade Practices Act, 1969 (MRTP). The Competition Act is a promotional, not a restrictive act. It punishes abuse of dominant position not dominance per se. A firm is free to grow as large as it pleases, or achieve as big a market share as it can. Firms can achieve dominant position legitimately through innovation or greater entrepreneurial effort, and many practices that on the surface look anti competitive can actually also serve very legitimate pro competitive functions.
Our goal is to prevent practices that have a reverse effect on competition and ensure freedom of trade. The whole structure of the Commission and the Act is based on how to promote economic development of the country. We undertake regulation only when it has failed.
How do you determine if a company has abused its monopolistic position?
If a group of enterprises or persons enter into an agreement meant to block the entry of others, to us, that's the definition of a cartel abusing its power. Or if there is a situation of predatory pricing, if a dominant entity starts selling wares costing Rs. 10 but sells them at Rs. 2, then it drives everyone out and finally then sells those same products at Rs. 20 — that would be something we would look into very seriously. Other benchmarks like limiting production or provision of services of other entities, "bid rigging" which is the manipulation of the process of bidding — any of these practices by a dominant enterprise is looked upon as abuse.
How does the CCI determine if there is a situation worthy of investigation?
Under section 19 of the Competition Act (2002), if any reference is made to us or even if the case is brought up suo moto, we can look into various dominant positions. Only once there is prima facie that there is a case, then under section 26, the commission may ask a Director General of the CCI to launch an investigation.
What cases are you currently hearing?
We have seven cases already under active consideration. Normally we don't like to talk about the details of the cases but I can tell you they pertain to important matters on public policy. Specifically, we are looking at cases relating to the broadcasting sector, that is, the media and entertainment industry.
Has the Ambani dispute come to your notice?
No. There has been no reference made to us on this issue at all. The commission can look at any situation provided a competition angle is involved. If a reference comes before us we would scrutinise all the data, certainly.
Do you have the powers to stop a company you think is abusing its market power?
Yes, definitely. We can impose penalties up to 10 percent of the annual turnover in case of cartelisation. We can pass cease and desist orders.

—Dr Sheeler, in his letter above, apparently has concluded that the patient described in my case report had a hemorrhage into a nontoxic nodule rather than acute (subacute) thyroiditis, before the development of Graves' disease. He suggests that aspiration biopsy with a coarse needle (Crile) might have resolved the issue and relieved the patient's pain. As evidence, he cites the normal ESR and tests of thyroid function, as well as the 1.5-cm, cold area on scan.
The scan, however, was performed at the beginning of the present illness, whereas the blood tests were conducted two weeks later, during her first visit to the Columbia Presbyterian Medical Center (CPMC). During that interval, she had been given prednisone by her physician, with striking relief of pain, an immediate recurrence when medication was discontinued for a day, and renewed relief with reestablishment of treatment. This sequence of events seems to me much more

Today is my son's birthday celebration at school. He invited me to join him for lunch today which of course melted my heart. I wonder how many years I have left of him wanting me to come and sit with him over the lunch hour?! I'm afraid it won't be much longer <sniff, sniff>. So today I'll go to school and enjoy lunch with my very-soon-to-be-8-year old and enjoy every minute of it.
Today's lunch includes: my son's favorite almond flour frosted pumpkin muffins, cucumber, roast beef sandwich wrapped in provolone cheese "ribbon", almonds and Trader Joe's alphabet cookie, pineapple.

CALCUTTA - The Beavers finally broke through.
The Beaver Local and East Liverpool girls' soccer battled for 80 minutes, but in the end the Beavers came away with the 2-0 victory Saturday night over the visiting Potters on Senior Night.
The win is the first of the season for the Beavers (1-13). With the loss, the Potters drop to .500 at 6-6.

"I think we made a statement," Beaver Local head coach Liz Connor said. "They are going to be one of the top seeds in our sectional tournament.
"The kids played hard. We were able to sit down and watch some film. We were able to work on our weaknesses. We worked hard during practice.
"I give credit to East Liverpool. They played hard-physical game."
The Potters have now been shutout in back-to-back games. Morgantown blanked East Liverpool, 8-0, Tuesday at Red Devil Stadium in St. Clairsville in the quarterfinals of the OVAC Cup Girls' Soccer Tournament.
"It's disappointing that after the performance against Morgantown that we didn't come out harder and with more intensity," first-year East Liverpool head coach Katie Smith said.
Becky Stoffer and Alex Eisenhart tallied goals for the Beavers. Stoffer's goal was unassisted. Brittany Mesler assisted on Eisenhart's goal.
Maranda Kiddey made nine saves in goal for Beaver Local.
Chelsea Possage made 10 saves for East Liverpool. Possage has now made 30 saves in the last two games after stopping 20 shots in the Potters' loss to the Mohigans.
Stoffer scored to give the Beavers a 1-0 lead, and Beaver Local maintained a one-goal advantage until late in the contest. With the lead, the Beavers attempted to move the ball in attempt to keep possession of the ball while at the same time enabling precious seconds tick off the clock.
Beaver Local was able to run some time off the clock, and then Eisenhart was able to work her way free before lofting a shot past Possage and into the back of the net giving the Beavers a 2-0 lead with just a few minutes remaining to be played in the game.
The win was a big one for the Beavers.
"We are hoping to gain momentum heading into the postseason," Connor said. "This was the first game in a while where I had butterflies and a nervous feeling going into the game. I had a good feeling going into the game."
After the game, Beaver Local honored its four seniors - Heather Swickard, Melinda Richey, Mercedes May and Mesler.
"They have shown perseverance throughout the year," Connor said. "We knew going into this season that it was going to be a big challenge, and they have been able to step up. They have provided good leadership on and off the field."
Beaver Local's next game is at 5 p.m. Monday at home against Struthers. East Liverpool plays at 5 p.m. Wednesday at United as part of a girls and boys doubleheader.

Flounder or Sole with Herbs and Wine Sauce
2 tablespoons chopped parsley
1/4 cup minced chives
2 teaspoons chopped tarragon
1 teaspoon freshly grated lemon zest
4 (6-ounce) whole flounder or sole fillets
Salt and freshly ground pepper
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/4 cup dry white wine
2 tablespoons water
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut in half
Heat the oven to 400 degrees.
Mix parsley, chives, tarragon and lemon zest in a small bowl. Cut down the length of each whole fillet to remove the spine strip. Season the fish with salt and pepper on both sides and lay flat (skin side down, if skin is on) on work surface. Sprinkle herb mixture over each piece of fish. Roll up the pieces and place a toothpick through the center of each to secure.
Add oil to a large ovenproof, nonstick skillet over moderately high heat. Add the fish, seam-side-down, and cook until browned on the bottom, about 3 minutes. Turn and cook for 2 more minutes. Put the skillet in the oven and bake for 3 to 4 minutes, until just cooked. Remove from pan and place on a serving plate. Tent with foil.
Return skillet to moderately high heat, add the wine and water and bring to a boil, scraping up the browned bits from the bottom of the skillet. Remove from the heat and swirl in the butter. Pour the sauce over the fish. Sprinkle with remaining herbs. Serve immediately.
NOTE: Uncooked fish rolls can be refrigerated overnight.

Yay!!! congrats!
The title makes it sound as though I haven't managed to make successful kraut before - I have. It has always worked OK. But this was the first time with this crock, and I didn't once have to lift the lid to check if there was kahm yeast forming - just left it to get on with fermenting.
I actually left the cabbage to ferment for a month - bottled it up yesterday and put it in the fridge. It is super - the best yet. I want to get some tiny gherkins and give them a go!
Best thing I've bought for AGES - I got the 5 litre crock and it is heaps big enough for 2 of us.
Yay!!! congrats!
Why use a sledge hammer to crack a nut when a steam roller is even more effective, and, is fun to drive.
I can remember my mom using a big crock. I think I remember pickles in it? I dont have one but I was just going to try the jars. However now I am thinking I will go the second hand shop and see what they have. I went for tennis rackets the other day for the grandkids and I think I saw one. Well one of the white-ish ones?
Good job and thanks for the info!

I am having fun with little jars and hope to move up to crocks someday. I want to make sure it will be a constant in my life, though, before investing. Right now I have sauerkraut, garlic and beets doing their thing. Ginger carrots are next on my list.
I am trying the one in 'Nourishing Traditions' by Sally Fallon and Mary Enig, which follows their basic formula of 1T sea salt plus 2T whey to approx 4C grated carrot + 1T grated ginger. Pound until liquid is released, pack into a jar, top with filtered water if necessary to cover, and let sit.
Their book has a lot of interesting information- it is definitely one I'll be buying. For those who don't know, they follow Weston Price's guidelines, so there is plenty of stuff on grains and legumes, as well as recipes that fit right into primal.
OK - got the book already! I just wasn't sure about using whey - it might alter the flavour?
I've been eyeing those crocks, but they're soooo pricey. The Ohio crocks are comparitively cheap - but I really like that trough style lid on the Harsch. Have you tried the regular Ohio crocks?
I was able to make a really good sauerkraut with less salt than usual, and it tastes super. In the other crock, I wouldn't have risked less salt.
Next batch will have garlic, onion and carrot as well as cabbage. "Wild Fermentation" suggests experimenting - and I'm game for that!

Then by all means pick someone else... The Pats are pretty much the only team that is a (nearly) sure thing this week.
Yeah the eagles vs browns were a pretty sure thing too in week 1 and was incredibly close. Anyways I did pick another team, I'm not taking the pats this early.
But yeah half of everyone keep picking the same team as each other and when the upset finally happens you can all be out, especially when your picking the most popular teams. Have fun in week 10 when you get to pick the B level teams if the big group gets that far.
::note:: I'm not saying the pats are going to lose, I got confidence they will actually win. Arizona since they are in the same division as the 49ers already know they won't see post season. All i'm getting at is people shouldn't feel a need to bunch up and should make their own choices, not follow the herd. That and your exhausting the "great" to "good" teams early on.

Caldesi and Montecchi (active 1850s)
'Una and the Wood Nymphs after W. E. Frost, A. R. A.'
Albumen print
Museum no. 34:436
© Victoria and Albert Museum, London
Caldesi and Montecchi were highly sought-after photographers during the 1850s, particularly for their skills in portraiture. The partners were summoned to capture a series of images of the royal children, for example. They were also well known for their reproductions of works of art. The photographs they included in the 1858 exhibition at the South Kensington Museum were praised by the Athenaeum (20 February 1858): 'The copies of paintings made by Messrs. Caldessi and Montecchi are … minute, careful and successful,-truer, softer, and surer than engravings, and expressing more of the colour and sentiment of the picture.'
The image Una and the Wood Nymphs depicts an allegory from Edmund Spencer's poem The Faerie Queene, first published in 1590. Although the V&A does not hold this particular painting by William Edward Frost (1810-77), several of his other oils form part of the Museum's Collection. Frost was best known for his success in painting the female nude. He was elected an associate member of the Royal Academy in 1846 and full member in 1870.

The intricate and varied musical and personal relationships that formed in the late-'60s/early-'70s cultural scene spewed forth plenty of fertile collaborations. However, as unmystical as it sounds, it was merely a matter of timing in the case of
Keith Godchaux

Ron "Pigpen" McKernan

grew up in Concord with a father who was a professional pianist and singer.
was trained in classical music at a young age, but spent his teen years performing at country clubs and in various bands; his earlier musical attempts tended to lean more toward jazz than rock & roll. While bumming around the California music scene in 1970, he met
Donna Jean Thatcher
and they married shortly afterward. Plenty of musical opportunities abounded during that time and
made the rounds. He was drawn to one band in particular --
the Grateful Dead
-- and one day decided he wanted to be in the band. Not knowing the band's own keyboardist,
Ron "Pigpen" McKernan
, was falling ill, his timing was sadly convenient for both parties. He joined on to play keyboards and sing and soon after, his wife was asked to join as well, and they stayed on from October 1971 to February 1979. The band, at the time, consisted of
Jerry Garcia
(guitar, vocals),
Bob Weir

Phil Lesh
Bill Kreutzmann
Mickey Hart

When the band reconvened, the two went on tour and even made the 1978 trip to Egypt to be the first rock & roll band to play in front of the Sphinx. In 1979, the Godchauxs and the other bandmembers decided it would be best if they left the band. The constant touring and drug-addled lifestyle had taken their toll on the couple, so they parted ways. He and

On-campus bank at WT nears reality
By DON MUNSCH
Globe-News Staff Writer
An on-campus bank at West Texas A&M University will become a reality if the Texas A&M University System Board of Regents grants its approval when it meets July 23-24 in College Station, WT President Russell C. Long said Tuesday.
Long said the university received one proposal from a local bank - First State Bank of Canyon - to place a bank on the campus. Should the board of regents approve a WT recommendation, the bank could begin operating this fall inside the old Student Union Building, Long said.
Long said he doesn't anticipate any problems with acquiring regents' approval since there's no controversy surrounding the issue, although he said he always hates to predict what decisions it will take.
"I suspect (the board of regents) will go along with our recommendation," he said.
Long said he was surprised the university did not receive more proposals.
Four financial institutions - Amarillo National Bank, NationsBank, Education Credit Union (Amarillo) and First State Bank - participated in a pre-proposal conference in May, according to Gary Barnes, WT vice president for business and finance. Long and Barnes said no more proposals will be accepted.
Barnes declined to discuss the proposal's specifics. He said three A&M System groups - risk management, treasury services and the general counsel - have to study the proposal before submitting their recommendation. He said he expects to hear back from them in about 10 days.
"It's a proposal, unlike a bid, and it allows for negotiation with the financial institution," Barnes said.
Long said he previously had proposed the idea of a campus bank to three Canyon banks - First State Bank, Norwest and Boatmen's National Bank - about two years ago but couldn't find any takers.
"As far as I'm concerned, the key issue is whether our students would benefit to have this on campus," Long said. "If it's an asset to them, it's a benefit. If it's not an asset or benefit to them, then the university would not benefit from this."
Long said he thinks convenience and access for students play key roles in making a campus bank a benefit.
"I would imagine that if students had access to banking on campus, it would be a benefit to them, and there would be a fair amount of activity," he said. The campus automatic teller machine at the Jack B. Kelley Student Center receives a lot of business, Long said.
Long said campus banks are becoming commonplace statewide, and they resemble banks located inside grocery stores. Long said the bank would be placed in the old Student Union Building because no room exists at the JBK.
"I think students will enjoy having more banking services than the ATM we have on campus," Barnes said.
Don Albrecht, WT vice president for student services, said he believes a campus bank would be an asset.
"Certainly, for some students it will be a convenience factor if they're living on campus and don't have transportation," he said.
J. Pat Hickman, First State Bank president, said his bank's proposal to WT includes: $600 a month for space; a 10-cent contribution to WT organizations for every ATM withdrawal; and a creation of an advisory board of one administration / staff member, one faculty member and three students.
He said First State Bank would try the venture on a trial basis.
"We're going to WT. We want to see what's there. We're going to see what we can do, and we're going to see if this is a profitable venture," Hickman said.

Lot # 1184 (of 1673) < Previous Lot | Next Lot >
1894 The Temple Cup Two-Step March Sheet Music
Starting Bid - $300.00 , Sold For - $1,527.50
Rare 1894 sheet music entitled The Temple Cup Two-Step March composed by John W. Cavanagh and dedicated to "Our Champions - The New York Base Ball Club." The cover features a team photo of the 1894 Giants, including John Montgomery Ward, Amos Rusie, George Van Haltren and George Davis, as well as a small photo of the coveted Temple Cup. Published by Howley, Haviland & Co., New York. The printed notation along the top border, "As played by Sousa's peerless band," indicates the tune's popularity at the time. 1894 marked the first of four consecutive Temple Cup series to determine the champions of the National League. The Temple Cup series pitted the National League pennant winners against the second place club in a best of seven series, with the inaugural event matching the Baltimore Orioles (pennant winners) against the New York Giants. Although Baltimore boasted six future Hall of Famers in its lineup, they proved no match for the Giants, who swept the birds in four straight games, thus earning both the cup and this musical tribute. The reverse advertises for The Mathushek & Son Piano Co. of New York. The sheet music was very likely an advertising giveaway distributed by this company. All items relating to the Temple Cup Series are extremely rare. Because of its small size (slightly smaller even than a cabinet card), this item would compliment many types of collections, including cards, nineteenth-century baseball, 1890s Giants, Temple Cup-related items, and, of course, sheet musics. This is a very substantial piece that, based on the last couple of auction sales we have seen over the past several years, seems to have somehow fallen through the cracks of collector focus. This is possibly because there really is no other sheet music or item exactly like this one (it is much smaller than a traditional sheet music), and therefore does not neatly fall into any particular collecting genre. This piece has a lot going for it, including extreme rarity, and is one of the very few items of any kind known that in a collection can truly serve as representing The Temple Cup series. In the old days of the hobby, some twenty-plus years ago when sheet music collecting was a much more active field of collecting unto itself, this was a special rarity that was actually valued much more highly than today. The sheet music (4.25 x 5.5 inches) has a few tiny border tears along the front and back cover, and minor separation along the folded spine. While technically in Very Good condition, the piece displays as Excellent and is in remarkably high grade, given its fragile nature. Reserve $300. Estimate $500+. SOLD FOR $1,527.50

Religion, Human Rights and Post-Secular Legal Theory
Zachary R. Calo
Valparaiso University Law School
February 2, 2011
85 St. John's Law Review 495 (2011)
This paper proposes that the fundamental challenge for religious legal theory is the question of the secular and, in particular, a certain mode of secular reason that has shaped the idea of law within modernity. The fundamental ambition of modern legal thought was to sever law from a connection to a sacred cosmic and intellectual order. The idea of human rights, at least in its regnant expression, embodies this project most fully in that it has increasingly been defined as a moral tradition that stands over and against religion. This paper, by contrast, argues that the destabilization of secular meaning creates the space, and indeed the necessity, for a pluralist theological turn within the idea of human rights.

My brother is about the same age as your stepson and is also trying to bulk. My brother isn't huge, but he managed to put on some mass. My brother and I are both naturally skinny and we found that the solution is simple. Eat more. I have to eat at least 5,000 calories a day to gain. I've read about men that have to eat far more than I do. Count his calories and keep adding more until he starts gaining.
Check out this thread about what one year of Starting Strenth did for a 12 year old. A 14 year old would do even better!
12-year-old's progress after 1 year on SS
"Lift heavy things." Starting Strength was designed for training young football players. Get a barbell and a power rack and the SS book and he can go to town.
Don't get him lifting too much until he finishes most of his growth spurts. I have friends (all over 6 feet) who had their little brother lifting weights by age 10 and he was enormous by age 12. He also ended up being the shortest male in his extended family by six inches.
Don't think it was coincidence, either.
Primal since August 2012. CW: 317.
I know it's been said already but the key is to work out consistently and eat. When I say eat, I don't mean eat when he's hungry, I mean eat like it's his job. He is growing and very active which requires lots of calories, he has to figure out how to have a calorie surplus despite his growth and activity level. This will likely require him to feel like he's over eating.
Starting Strength would be a great program to start with. If he starts now and doesn't see results in the coming months its because he isn't eating enough.

Aaron Murray may be an aspiring NFL quarterback, but he hasn't gotten nearly the airtime of his brother, lately.
Aaron is just a football player. Josh Murray, however, is the choice of Andi Dorfman on "The Bachelorette."
The finale was taped the week of the NFL draft, so Aaron Murray, drafted by the Chiefs, wasn't too distracted on Monday night when viewers tuned in to ABC to see Josh propose to Andi on the reality television show.
"He's excited. He's very happy," Murray said after Chiefs' practice Wednesday. "It was fun watching him when I got the opportunity to watch on TV. And I've got a (future) sister-in-law, so I'm happy."
It was a good weekend in the Murray household: a day after Josh broke the news of his engagement , Aaron was drafted.
Josh Murray was drafted in 2002 by the Milwaukee Brewers in the second round, but never did catch his footing in the minor leagues. He then joined his brother with the Georgia Bulldogs and played safety for two seasons. Meanwhile, Aaron Murray was building his resume' as one of the top quarterbacks in the SEC.
He's now competing for a spot as a backup behind Alex Smith, and trying to find a way to catch up on the episode he missed.
"I still need to get it on iTunes or something," he said.

North West is growing up fast.
And her mom, Kim Kardashian, is keen on sharing her progress, posting a new photo of her daughter, seated on a green sofa, on Instagram Tuesday with a very simple caption: "LOL."
Since North's birth in June, Kardashian, 33, has offered up only a few glimpses of her sweet daughter, who turns 5-months old on Friday – far fewer than the sexy selfies the reality and fashion star has been fond of posting to social media to show off her successful post-baby weight loss.
In Kardashian's latest snapshot, baby North is all smiles, showing off big brown eyes that have prompted mom's followers gush that she's "precious" and "gorgeous."
Earlier, the happy mom also posted another photo of her baby girl, this time comfortably lounging in the arms of pal Riccardo Tisci, the creative director of Givenchy.
"#NewStylist," she playfully captioned the pic. (And what a stylist, to boot!)
No word yet on whether the growing infant will be tapped as a tiny flower girl for the nuptials of her newly engaged mom and dad, Kanye West. The rapper offered the first glimpse of his baby girl, then 10 weeks old, to the world when he showed off a proud snap on grandmother Kris Jenner's talk show in August.
Grandpa Bruce Jenner offered up nothing but praise for Kardashian's maternal skills on Monday at the All Sports Film Festival in Los Angeles, saying she's "doing a great job" as a mother.

Preparing code for 64-bit ARM
Code Cleanup
"maddog" and Linaro are collaborating on a contest to improve the performance of certain GNU/Linux source code modules.
Last month, I wrote briefly about a project I am doing for Linaro, which is an association of ARM processor companies that collaborate to achieve better support for Linux on ARM systems. The original project was to help with approximately 1,400 source code modules in the GNU/Linux system containing assembly language and to make sure these modules were ready for the 64-bit version of ARM processors now appearing from various manufacturers.
Steve McIntyre, a friend of mine who works for ARM directly, lwocated the 1,400 modules and analyzed some for content and difficulty in "porting." Steve has had a lot of expertise with this because he has been a long-time kernel programmer and was the Debian project leader for a while.
Steve noticed that while some of the modules were very good, in some the 32-bit assembly language had been added in a sub-optimal way, not taking advantage of some of the ARM features. In other cases, the assembly language was doing tasks (i.e., identification of hardware) that would be better performed in a compiler "intrinsic," which could then be used by every machine architecture in a consistent way.
As I started to analyze the task, I also realized that some of these modules had been written quite a long time ago, and although they had been maintained – with bugs fixed and ports done – the underlying design was for smaller, more expensive memory and slower single-core processors. Likewise, Steve only analyzed the source code of the module. He did not look at the compiler options used in the build of the software. In some cases, the flags used on the compiler did not take advantage of the newer optimizations of the compilers.
Taking larger and cheaper memory into account, as well as multicore processors, it is possible that code that was very efficient 10 years ago could use some analysis and performance improvements today.
After talking with the Linaro association, I decided to turn the "porting project" into a "performance contest" to see if we could get some performance improvement out of these modules.
For example, Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC) has a very good math library into which we had invested a lot of money. DEC was willing to contribute the binary to the Alpha/Linux project for free but refused to expose the source code of the library for fear that their competitors would simply copy it. Of course, the GNU/Linux community wanted the source code, and they hounded me for it.
Eventually, I replied, "If you are such good programmers, write a better math library." Three or four days later, an email announced that the
sin(3) function was "2% faster" and later
cos(3) was "1.5% faster." Day by day, the FOSS people changed the source code of the math library to make each and every subroutine faster than the one in the DEC proprietary code. Only one subroutine was never written to execute faster, and that was because no one used it … no one cared.
A second example was a reduction of memory footprint for the DEC UNIX (née OSF/1) operating system that allowed it to boot and run in 32MB of main memory instead of 64MB (yes, you read that correctly). After the work on it, the OS not only ran in less memory, it ran 7% faster on the same hardware because of better cache utilization simply by reducing code size and improving how the cache was used.
Therefore, I am starting a contest not only to ensure GNU/Linux code works on a 64-bit system, but also to see how much we can improve the performance and maintainability of the code in various ways.
Linaro has agreed to be the main sponsor of this contest to improve the code. They will identify potential code candidates and ask the contestants to measure code performance before and after modification. We will ask participants to document their work on the code and the algorithms they might have considered and changed and why. And, of course, we will be working with the upstream developers and module maintainers to make sure the improvements are acceptable.
We also will be looking for people to write various compiler intrinsics and make them available to the FOSS community, and we will be looking for mentors and judges. Finally, we will take the output of this contest and publish it. I hope to gather enough material for a course in code optimization that will be freely available.
I don't have enough room here to explain all the rules and options for this contest, so I will cover those issues online in my blog [1].

HADDONFIELD – Even fighting the flu, Xavier Lundy remained a warrior.
The senior forward has a calming effect, able to put the Paulsboro boys' basketball team on his back and take over a game when necessary.
"I think their guys realize he's the guy who's been here for four years and we're going to go off his lead. He's going to make the right decisions," said Haddonfield coach Paul Wiedeman.
Lundy is coming down the home stretch in what has been a stellar career. He's the centerpiece of a program that's gone 54-3 over the past two seasons with high expectations of winning a second straight South Jersey Group 1 title and making a serious run at a state crown.
In what can only be described as X being X, Lundy rose to the occasion once again Thursday.
In his final regular-season game, the 6-5 forward delivered two powerful fourth-quarter dunks and swatted away a sure basket in the closing moments as No. 2 Paulsboro defeated No. 9 Haddonfield 61-55 in a showdown of Colonial Conference division champions.
"Going into the fourth quarter, the game was a little closer than expected even though Haddonfield is a real good team and well coached," Lundy said. "I took it upon myself to be more aggressive as an individual and help get my team the lead."
Clinging to a 42-41 lead, Lundy scored five straight points – two dunks and a foul shot – to highlight a 7-0 run with 5:25 to play. Haddonfield would only get as close as three the rest of the way.
"That says who he is and how he wrapped up his regular-season career stepping up in the fourth quarter," Paulsboro coach Sean Collins said.
Lundy finished with 15 points, raising his career total to 2,067 – fourth on the school's all-time scoring list. He also had 10 rebounds, five assists, two blocks and two steals.
Kane Segar added 11 points off the bench, while Julien Davenport had 10 points.
Chris Biddle led all scorers with 23 points to go along with five rebounds and three steals before fouling out late in the fourth. Billy Griffin added 13 points.
For Wiedeman, it was a positive experience as the top-seeded Bulldawgs enter the South Jersey Group 2 playoffs.
"At the end, you have to play almost perfect against them," Wiedeman said. "We had critical turnovers and missed foul shots. Other than that, to play this team almost even for 32 minutes … Going into the playoffs, we're not going to see a team as big as them or a team that's been in so many battles.
"We pushed them. They had to play well to win the game."
That's how it's been at times for Paulsboro, but on nearly every occasion the Red Raiders have answered the challenge.
"Coach Wiedeman asked me before the game 'What's it like being the rock stars all year?'," Collins said. "It's been tough, but the kids responded.
"The whole year, I felt the heat. At the beginning of the year I think our kids did. But at the end of it, we lost to the second-best team in the state (Hudson Catholic) and the No. 1 team in South Jersey (Atlantic City). So we still took care of business and got off the bus every time we needed to during the regular season."
The game could be the last for the Red Raiders until next Thursday after Maple Shade dropped out of the South Jersey Group 1 tournament. If a team is not added, Paulsboro would get a first-round bye and face the Wildwood-Woodbury winner.

exclusive interview
RS eyes up rivals in EPL bidding war
The battle for the rights to broadcast the English Premier League (EPL) for the 2013-2015 seasons is hotting up as more bidders enter the fray. The Nation's deputy managing editor Jintana Panyaarvudh talks to Surachai Chetchotisak, CEO of RS - who won the rights to televise World Cups 2010 and 2014, Euro 2008 and Spain's La Liga (2012-2014 seasons) - about the firm's chances in the upcoming bidding war.
Why is RS interested in bidding for EPL broadcast rights?
The only reason is that it is good content. It's the most popular league in Thailand. But the licence fees should be reasonable and close to what we are planning to offer. If they are higher, we will not be serious about bidding.
For RS, it is fine if we win but okay if we don't, because our current business doesn't rely on the EPL. It is not a "must win", but we want to get it, and we believe our content-management style will be different from others.
It's confidential. There is an international law prohibiting me from revealing the bidding figure.
Do you think current rights holder TrueVisions have an advantage because they know the figure of the previous license fee?
No, because the real value is the value in the market.
What do you think about partnering up and jointly bidding for the EPL?
Absolutely. We will find a partner, because EPL broadcast needs huge investment and management. We have talked to several parties including InTouch [formerly Shin Corp, and the country's largest telecoms firm]. There is no fixed formula for running a business nowadays. It depends what's appropriate. If partnership can enhance strength and make it a win-win situation, it could be possible.
We have no set figure for the number of partners - the most important thing is synergy. It's not only the money they can bring in, but also having the same idea as us, being on the same wavelength, and helping each other, which are very important.
If RS wins the EPL rights, how much will the subscription fee be?
We can't reveal it now. I don't think any bidders can tell, because, first of all, we have to know how much the licence fees will be. One thing I can assure you is that if we win, we will provide our viewers with easy and greater access to the broadcasts and with friendly fees.
We will use the same principle as for our La Liga rights. Viewers can watch 380 live matches of the league via our satellite TV set-top Sunbox for a Bt100 monthly fee. We will also share up to 50 live matches, including "big matches", with [free TV's] Channel 7 and Channel 8 via satellite.
Does RS have a business plan in place for the bid?
Yes. Officials from the Premier League [rights' owner] will visit Thailand this month to give a presentation for bidders. I think the winner will be announced by the end of September.
As the rights holder for three international tournaments and the Spanish League, is it difficult to secure the rights?
No. Whoever offers the highest [amount of money] will win. They will also consider the bidders' management plans, readiness and experience. But the hardest part is deciding how much we should offer. We need a good plan. We need to know the true value of the league and know how to handle the licence once we obtain it. If we can make a profit it means we have offered a reasonable bid.
What do you think about your competitors? Which company has the advantage?
No one has any advantage. All bidders, including RS, have an equal chance to win until the results are announced.
What do you think about the competition for sport content and its broadcast rights in Thailand?
If we look at it from a business angle, this is a transition period. It is a new opportunity for new players to join the industry. It's now easier to start a satellite TV business and platforms and offer set-top boxes. The competition will be absolutely fierce.
The viewers will be at an advantage as it is going to be a consumer's market. Viewers should not be worried that they will be forced to buy more set-top boxes. Of more concern for them would be a monopoly. The more the competition, the cheaper the fees will be. Operators have to compete to win consumers' hearts.
After the EPL bidding is settled, there will be only two or three set-top boxes. RS is focusing on providing "killer" content - La Liga and the EPL. Customers will not pay for any other league.

Seven candidates filed by today's 4 p.m. deadline for the March 12 special primary election to determine who will compete in the May 7 special election. The winner will serve the remainder of Gleason's term, which expires at the end of 2014.
The five Democrats are: State Rep. Jim Ananich of Flint; General Motors employee Chris Del Morone of Flint; Genesee County Commissioner Ted Henry of Clayton Township; state Rep. Woodrow Stanley of Flint; and Lawrence Woods of Flint.
The two Republican candidates are retired real estate professional Robert J. Daunt of Flint Township and customer service professional Adam Ford of Flint.
Ananich and Stanley, who were re-elected in November to their state House seats, announced early on their intentions to run for the seat vacated by Gleason, who resigned after winning election to Genesee County clerk-register of deeds.
Stanley says he would bring many years of experience to the state Senate as a former Flint councilman, Flint mayor and Genesee County commissioner.
Ananich, a former Flint teacher, has already opened a campaign office in Flint and is touting endorsements, including Genesee/Shiawassee/Lapeer Building Trades Council.
Henry, a county commissioner for six years, was re-elected in November to his seat representing Clayton and Gaines Townships. He said he wanted to run to give voters the choice of someone who lives outside the city of Flint, since all the other Democratic candidates live in Flint.
"I've grown up in that district and lived in it my whole life," he said. "I know that district very well."
Del Morone, a GM employee for more than 35 years, said he wanted to give the voters the choice of someone who wasn't recently elected to another office.
"This election should be about the people," he said. "There's a lot of divisiveness in Lansing right now and that's not good for the people."
Woods could not be reached for comment.
As for the Republicans, Daunt recently ran against Ananich and lost in the 49th state House District. He said he was encouraged by local party leaders and other Republicans in Lansing to join the Senate race after Gleason resigned.
"It would be a shame to not have a contest both in the primary and the election," he said. "Voters should get someone who's not a career politician."
Ford recently ran for Genesee County treasurer and said he would carry some of those same issues to the Senate campaign, such as his hope to eliminate the county Land Bank.
"I'm very conservative," he said. "I thought I would be a good option for the voters."

CLEARWATER, Fla. - It was the seventh inning of a Grapefruit League game, which meant the household names had been excused from the dugout to shower and change and check out of work early. In the Phillies' clubhouse, Jimmy Rollins sat near his locker chatting with Delmon Young, both of them keeping an eye on a television hanging on the wall of the clubhouse. With one out in the inning, Domonic Brown connected with a fastball and caused the conversation to stop.
"Whoa," Young and Rollins howled in unison as the 25-year-old outfielder's bomb cleared the batter's eye in centerfield.
