While industrial applications typically require high levels of reliability, availability, ruggedness, and longevity, there often is a set of unique system requirements dependent upon the specific goals of the system. For instance, an industrial automation application may call for a particular I/O interface or the ability to support custom control software.
Unfortunately, no universal computing solution exists that can satisfy all of the varying needs for the growing range of industrial applications. The good news is that recent advances in technology have opened up a variety of new standardized options. The amount of performance that can be squeezed into a small form factor has improved dramatically in part due to advancements in processing technology. For instance, the new Intel® Atom™ processor Z5xx series was developed specifically to address very compact, performancehungry, and thermally constrained embedded applications.
The Computer-on-Module (COM) approach offers the advantages of high levels of processing performance and I/O bandwidth in a compact form factor. It also allows flexibility in standard form factor boards that require upgradeable host functionality.
Embedded Technology eXtended (ETX) has established itself as a popular non-backplane form factor. Targeting customizable embedded requirements, ETX offers reliable operation and a long life in harsh environments. Since ETX modules employ heat-spreader plates to assist with conduction cooling, they are an option for use in extended temperature ranges as long as the components in the design can tolerate the harsh environment.
The newer ETX 3.0 specification offers all of the benefits of the original ETX standard while adding in 2x Serial ATA without changing any of the ETX pin definitions, making new modules 100 percent pin-to-pin compatible with previous versions to ensure long-term support for the vast number of embedded application solutions based on these already highly integrated COMs.
COM Express includes specifications for small-form-factor modules to satisfy the high-performance segments of the embedded industry. The COM Express standard currently includes "basic" and "extended" form factors following one of the five PICMG-defined pin-outs. In addition to offering "basic" modules with the ETXexpress product family, two compatible smaller form factor modules — microETXexpress and most recently nanoETXexpress (as illustrated in Table 2) — have been developed. The nanoETXexpress modules have a footprint just 39 percent of the original COM Express standard "Basic" form factor module.

Rand Paul To Address Ralph Reed's Religious Right Conference
Newly elected Kentucky Senator Rand Paul is set to address the Faith & Freedom Conference and Strategy Briefing in June, the hallmark event of Ralph Reed's Faith and Freedom Coalition. Sen. Paul and his father, Texas Congressman Ron Paul, both appear to be testing the waters for a presidential bid. The younger Paul recently address the Iowa Republican Party's "Night of the Rising Stars" and the Iowa Campaign for Freedom; he also told The Hill that he feels ready to run for president even though he has only held elected office since January.
Paul has also helped serve as a bridge between the Tea Party and the Religious Right, and conservatives were quick to defend him after he said he publicly opposed the Civil Rights Act and the Americans with Disabilities Act. In 2009 Paul headlined an event for the Constitution Party, which wants to establish "biblical law," and his far-right positions have helped him win endorsements from prominent Religious Right figures like James Dobson and Beverly LaHaye.
During his Iowa speech, he said that politicians should refuse to compromise on the issue of abortion, connecting it to compromises on slavery laws prior to the Civil War. Earlier this year, he tried to connect his opposition to abortion rights to his battle against low flush toilets.
Congresswoman Michele Bachmann, who is forming a presidential exploratory committee, is also slated to speak at the conference. The group's Iowa convention hosted likely candidates such as Newt Gingrich, Rick Santorum, Tim Pawlenty, Herman Cain, and Buddy Roemer.

text: Boring report coming up. At work we have this beast called cruise control which does continuous builds. On failure, it mails to the offenders and I wanted to have those links available on the internet and not only on the local intranet. One way could be to reconfig the cruise control beast to use auth and https and then just forward that in our firewall. Since I'm not clever enough to reconfigure the cruisecontroll junk to do that - it has sort of disgusting tomcat containers and several hundred XML config files, I thought I should just let yaws revproxy to it using https + auth. That way I'd get https + auth and wouldn't have to touch the cruise control config. And here comes the boring part, the yaws reverse proxy uses two processes, one which reads from the client and sends to the server and another which does the opposite. The reason for that is that passive mode on the sockets is a requirement so that the HTTP chunks can be read on at a time. Anyway, the OTP ssl library can't handle the case with one passive reader and and another writer in another process. If PidA is reading and PidB writes, then PidB hangs until PidA is done while its reading. Boring ehhh.... Thus the only solution is to just use one process and active once sockets, that however means that all of revproxy needs to be rewritten and it'll also become much slower since he chunking will have to be done manually. Booooooring. Otherwise being able to use the yaws reverse proxy to secure an internal webserver for external usage would be very nice. So, for your info, revproxy https-->http (and http-->https for that matter) doesn't work and will not work until either the OTP sll library is fixed to handle writers in other procsses or the yaws revproxy is entirely rewritten. Any takers ?? /klacke /klacke

Whenever "disasters" occur, the knee-jerk reaction tends to kick regulation into high gear.
It was no different for bankers after the failure of New Frontier Bank on April 10, 2009, and hundreds of other bank failures across the country, when the Dodd–Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, passed in 2010, put more regulations on banks of all sizes, casting a wide net across the entire industry.
For the small community banks, which dominated the Greeley financial scene since 2000, that meant big changes, pushing some out and keeping others dangling on the line.
The changes in regulation to this day have many in the industry hoping they can hold out until a possible repeal of the sweeping changes.
"We're hoping we get some repeal of parts of Dodd-Frank," said Byron Bateman , president of Cache Bank & Trust, 4601 20th St. in Greeley. "In all my career, it was a very dramatic happening, particularly for community banks."
Local bankers have cried foul for years over the act, which was set up to hold more banks accountable for their loose lending that led to the Great Recession.
But there were unintended consequences to community banks — the banks that have their finger on the pulse of their communities and are the lifeline for many small businesses — argues Tanya Marsh, associate professor of law at Wake Forest University School of Law, and Joseph Norman, an attorney in Charlotte, N.C., in a recent report for the American Enterprise Institute discussing the repercussions of the act.
They argued that community banks played no role in causing the financial crisis. They did not engage in subprime residential lending. They did not package and sell securitized mortgages.
"Most of these rules are complex, and the costs of understanding and then complying with these additional and complex rules will be extremely high," the attorneys argued. "A $165 million bank is less able to absorb regulatory burden than a $2 trillion bank. By imposing unnecessary regulations on smaller institutions, we are awarding the larger banks a further competitive advantage."
The big challenge is scale, Bateman said. Case in point, he said, at a community banking conference that's held every year in Phoenix, the chatter has ramped up about the effects of Dodd-Frank's new rules on smaller banks.
"At the end of January 2013, people thought you had to be a $500 million to $600 million bank to really survive in the community banking environment," Bateman said. "This last January, it was $1 billion."
Banks have had to hire more people to follow the rules to apply them to their customer base. The Washington Post reported last month that one bank in Washington bumped up its compliance staff "seven-fold" to 35 members.
Patty Gates, market president for FMS Bank, 2425 35th Ave. in Greeley, said on average, for every one lender in commercial banks, there are 1.2 compliance people. That's extra overheard that cuts into already flat earnings for banks.
"It's become a burden that has forced small banks out of the mortgage business," Gates said. "In my mind, the regulatory changes are actually driving smaller banks out of the business and consumer lending world, and offering fewer choices to consumers, who are ending back up at the big banks that were in essence the original contributors to the meltdown."

It basically allows the cpu/gpu to swap data in and out much faster, it's similar to an l3 cache..
They probably are bypassing it for the most part, which is the reason for texture poppins in Dead Rising 3, etc.. the SoC is waiting for the data basically

Honestly TC no one on this board can give you a good answer to how a dev is using it. Few on this board would really understand the programing behind it. Either go learn a lot about computer science or try sending your question in to an actual dev :)
GameFaQs is not the place to learn about different programming approaches for different computer architecture.

They could, but they probably won't even be able to get games running at 720p if they did
yiangaruuuga 3 years ago#5
Considering most devs had no idea about the specs until the middle of development, I doubt any game is using it to its full capacity. If it's capable of 6Gbs of textures and graphic data, then any game could be 1080P easily.

What is esRAM? Yes I heard if it previously, but I have no idea what it is used for.
eSRAM stands for embedded static random-access memory.
From wikipedia
SRAM is more expensive and less dense than DRAM and is therefore not used for high-capacity, low-cost applications such as the main memory in personal computers.
Embedded use
Many categories of industrial and scientific subsystems, automotive electronics, and similar, contain static RAM.
Some amount (kilobytes or less) is also embedded in practically all modern appliances, toys, etc. that implement an electronic user interface.
Several megabytes may be used in complex products such as digital cameras, cell phones, synthesizers, etc.
Basically it's fast static RAM with a small capacity embedded into the console.
Ad Hominem.
Cowboy082288 3 years ago#9
The truth that I have been able to figure out for whatever that is worth is this. The gaming communities obsession with eSRAM vs GDDR5 was mostly just people not understanding the two approaches MS and Sony were taking. Most just knew that GDDR5 was better than DDR3 for graphics. They didn't really understand the two approaches and made a big deal of nothing.
Now where they should have paid attention was the shaders. PS4 simply has more. It gives the PS4 an advantage in graphics processing. Is it the kind of advantage that will mean better looking games? I don't know, maybe, it's not really a huge deal. Might come into play 5 years into the consoles life cycles.
Both the X1 and PS4 are about mid to low range gaming PCs. Neither is even close to high end. If you want to know what high end gaming rigs are like look into crossfire and sli. This two tech from amd and nividia (the tech is really the same) allow multiple graphics cards to work in tandem with each other. This make 4K gaming possible on any type of game. Mind you if you want to play Battlefield 4 at 4K it's expensive. Probably like 4 thousand dollars or more.

You have to specifically place it in that buffer. It's not the same as Windows where RAM is completely controlled by the OS and can override what you want. The demo shown at E3 was a good example of how to use eSRAM. But you can use it for anything that needs super fast swapping.

Israel and Turkey: No Big Deal
Many thanks to Brad Rothschild for his help with the Hebrew.
News came over the weekend that Israel and Turkey are making up. There have been on and off rumors to this effect over the last three or four years, but the expected rapprochement never came. There was some hope that Jerusalem and Ankara would patch things up quickly after President Barack Obama visited Israel in March 2013, and as a party favor—a "deliverable," as it is known in the awful jargon of Washington wonkery—Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called Recep Tayyip Erdogan, who was Turkey's prime minister at the time before ascending to the presidency in August 2014, to apologize for the infamous 2010 Mavi Marmara incident. It was not to be, however. Negotiations dragged on with varying degrees of intensity between Turkish and Israeli diplomats in the ensuing years with episodic rumors and press report of imminent breakthroughs. Yet because the foreign ministries in both countries actually have limited influence on foreign policy, it was up to the leaders, and neither Netanyahu nor Erdogan seemed all that interested in a rapprochement. All that said, today's official announcement that Israel and Turkey are restoring full diplomatic relations was not that much of a surprise. But as important a development as the deal may be, this is unlikely to be the dawn of a new day in Israeli-Turkish relations. Read more »

Adding depth of field to your scene will do a lot to change an okay scene to a wow, that's a really cool scene! In order to add depth of field, you need to change your camera settings. But before you start going into your camera settings, you probably want to make sure that you have a true 3D scene. So let's look at our project right here. As you can see, we have a camera, we have multiple lights, we have multiple layers, and yes, of course, they all are 3D. So the recipe is set, now it's time to cook.
So double-click the Camera and with Camera Settings we have a Two-Node Camera which is great. We have the 50 millimeter Preset which is the length of the lens. To enable depth of field, you want to come down here to the center of the Camera Settings window and select Enable Depth of Field. Let's look at the F-Stop. Let's change it from 5.6 to 2.8. This is going to make the depth of field more shallow, so less of the image is going to be in focus. Now click OK.
You may not see depth of field right away, so let's investigate. If you look in the lower right corner of your comp viewer, click on the 1 View pulldown and change it to 2 Views. In here, click on the left side and make sure that your view is set to Top. So if we zoom in just a little bit, and I'm going to press the Spacebar and left-click to re-center my scene. Okay, see these shadows? That's letting me know that these two red lines correspond to these two words.
Now since these words don't have any depth, that's why I'm only getting this line. This triangular shape is creating the camera's view. So when we select the camera, let's press AA to open up the Camera Options. With the Camera Options selected, notice we have a Focus Distance and Aperture represented in pixels, and then we have a Blur Level. With Depth of Field On, the Focus Distance is set at the same depth as the zoom.
If we click and drag to the left, we're moving our Focus Distance. See how the line in the top view is moving back? That's letting us see where the Focus Distance is set. So let's just click and drag and set that right over our title. As we look back in our Active Camera view, you can see that we're still not seeing very much blur in our depth of field. So to accentuate that, I'm going to offset the camera. A quick way to offset the camera view is to press C on your keyboard which will grab your camera controls.
Now hover your camera over to Active Camera side of the viewer. If you hold down the Option key on the Mac or the Alt key on the PC and click and drag, you'll automatically start to orbit around the scene. Now when I let go, it'll take a second but the scene will redraw, and the camera has now changed its angle of view to the scene. We were holding Alt or Option, so we as moved the camera, it moved around the center point of the two nodes.
Okay, to heighten the blur, we literally just need to increase the Blur Level. So let's change it from 100% up to about 285% and press Return. Now it may take a second to refresh in the scene, but once it refreshes, notice this windmill is blurry, a certain part of our title is in focus and then other parts are out of focus. Notice how our depth of field is going right across our title right here. Just so I don't accidentally move in the scene, I'm going to grab my Selection tool and change my 2 Views in my comp viewer from 2 Views to 1 View.
If we resize our comp viewer, you can definitely see the depth of field that we've created within our scene. I'm going to show you one more tip that should definitely help you move depth of field around your scenes. You can tie it to an object and then animate that object. So to do that, we need to start by adding an object to our scene. So let's go up to the Layer menu and choose New > Null Object. With our Null Object in the scene, we can enable 3D for that object.
In order to hide the depth of field to this object, let's move our camera up in the layer hierarchy so it's just below Layer 1. Now we can select the Null 1 and hold down Shift and select the Camera, and go up to Layer down to Camera > Link Focus Distance to Layer. Choose Link, that way if you start to animate the Null Object, the focus will move with that object. So go ahead and choose that and notice it'll take a second to refresh because it's actually moving the depth of field.
Now if we deselect both layers by clicking off of them and then reselect 1 and press P, we can scrub in the Position value to move our depth of field not on the Y axis, but on X and Z, so it's back out of the scene. When the scene refreshes, you can tell that we've now linked the depth of field to the position of the Null Object. Now there's one more thing I'm going to point out before we head out. Let's make the timeline a little larger and if you look at the Camera Options under the Focus Distance, the pink numbers let me know that I've actually applied a behavior tying the Focus Distance to this Null Object.
But also, there are a host of other options that we can enable within our camera if we want to add a sense of realism to the camera. Now the one thing I like to play with is the Iris Shape, and if you click on that pulldown, you can change the Iris Shape and that will definitely make a difference in the realism of your scene. So as you can see, adding depth of field to your project is another way to add realism and perspective to your scenes.

Drug case ends in plea dealJune 24,2013WHITE RIVER JUNCTION A woman who admitted to selling heroin and Oxycontin from her home a year ago to undercover informants will do 30 days on the prison work crew and then enter intensive substance abuse treatment.
Ashley Blanchard, 20, now a resident of Springfield, struck a plea agreement Friday that saw her plead guilty to two felony counts of a sale of heroin and sale of a narcotic resulting in a one- to five-year sentence that was almost entirely suspended so that she can participate in drug treatment.
Vermont Assistant Attorney General Evan Meenan told the court that cooperating individuals working with the Vermont Drug Task Force had gone to Blanchards residence in Chester in February and March of last year and bought drugs from her in the mud room of her home after first arranging the transactions over a series of text messages.MORE IN This Just InBENNINGTON A Bondville woman is facing a felony charge after police said they learned she was...

Completely agree. A lot of times when players run that blazing 40 time or seem to fit the jitterbug mold, they find themselves tripping over their own feet or simply play a step ahead of the game (i.e. ignoring ones blockers and trying to force plays where there are none).
But Braxton has at least an extra year of experience on just about everyone in this draft class and that combined with all of the overtime he's spent learning the ins and outs of the sport I am convinced he is one of the most equipped players to make an impact on the League. He is truly a pupil of the game and his dedication shows with all the extra time he puts in during the offseason with the likes of George Whitfield while he was a QB as well as his secret sessions with Coach Smith/Michael Thomas in his attempt to make the QB-WR metamorphosis.
The heart, mind, and physical traits are all there. In my eyes he's a sure thing and someone will be glad they took the chance on his lack of statistical production because this kid was born to ball.

OXiGENE (OXGN) Seeks EU Approval of Zybrestat MAA
Get daily under-the-radar research with StreetInsider.com's Stealth Growth Insider Get your 2-Wk Free Trial here.
OXiGENE, Inc. (Nasdaq: OXGN) is exploring regulatory approval for ZYBRESTAT in anaplastic thyroid cancer, or ATC, in the European Union (EU) with a marketing authorization application (MAA) under an exceptional or conditional circumstances pathway, which might allow it to receive approval in Europe for ZYBRESTAT without conducting another clinical trial and for substantially less cost. The Company has now received scientific advice from representatives of regulatory authorities in two countries in the European Union related to this regulatory pathway. The representatives of these two countries' regulatory agencies indicated that, based on the information presented to them by the Company, filing an MAA under the exceptional circumstances pathway appeared to be the correct approach for this highly lethal, ultra-orphan indication and indicated that filing with the currently available clinical data would be possible. However, no assurance can be given that a filing of an MAA will result in an approval of ZYBRESTAT under this or any other regulatory pathway. OXiGENE now intends to request scientific advice from the Scientific Advice Working Party of the European Medicines Agency (EMA) to obtain confirmation of this approach, which the Company expects to receive in September or October of 2013. The MAA for ZYBRESTAT in ATC would be filed under the EMA's centralized procedure, which is required for all new cancer drugs. An approval of the MAA would allow marketing of ZYBRESTAT in all member states in the EU. As of March 31, 2013, OXiGENE expects to report cash and restricted cash of approximately $4.6 million, compared with approximately $5.0 million at December 31, 2012. In connection with OXiGENE's at-the-market offering agreement with MLV & Co. LLC, OXiGENE has issued 323,091 shares of common stock for proceeds of approximately $1.6 million, during the three months ended March 31, 2013.

FROM CERTAINTY TO UNCERTAINTY: The Story of Science and Ideas in the Twentieth Centuryby F. David Peat
Early theorists believed that in science lay the promise of certainty. Built on a foundation of fact and constructed with objective and trustworthy tools, science produced knowledge. But science has also shown us that this knowledge will always be fundamentally incomplete and that a true understanding of the world is ultimately beyond our grasp. In this thoughtful and compelling book, physicist F. David Peat examines the basic philosophic difference between the certainty that characterized the thinking of humankind through the nineteenth century and contrasts it with the startling fall of certainty in the twentieth. The nineteenth century was marked by a boundless optimism and confidence in the power of progress and technology. Science and philosophy were on firm ground. Newtonian physics showed that the universe was a gigantic clockwork mechanism that functioned according to rigid laws—that its course could be predicted with total confidence far into the future. Indeed, in 1900, the President of the Royal Society in Britain went so far as to proclaim that everything of importance had already been discovered by science. But it was not long before the seeds of a scientific revolution began to take root. Quantum Theory and the General Theory of Relativity exploded the clockwork universe, proving beyond a shadow of a doubt that our knowledge was, at best, incomplete—and would probably remain that way forever. There were places in the universe, such as black holes, from which no information at all could ever be obtained. Chaos Theory also demonstrated our inherent limits to knowing, predicting, and controlling the world around us and showed the way that chaos can often be found at the heart of natural and social systems. Although we may not always recognize it, this new world view has had a profound effect not only on science, but on art, literature, philosophy, and societal relations. The twenty-first century now begins with a humble acceptance of uncertainty. From Certainty to Uncertainty traces the rise and fall of the deterministic universe and shows the evolving influences that such disparate disciplines now have on one another. Drawing on the lessons we can learn from history, Peat also speculates on how we will manage our lives into the future.
A Question of Physics: Conversations in Physics and Biologyby F. David Peat Paul Buckley
This book contains interviews with physicists, biologists, and chemists who have been involved in some of the most exciting discoveries in modern scientific thought. The conversations--with Bohm, Pattee, Penrose, Rosen, Rosenfeld, Somorjai, Weizsäcker, Wheeler, and Nobel prizewinners Heisenberg, Dirac, and Prigogine--explore issues which have shaped modern physics and those which hint at what may form the next scientific revolution.The discussions range over a set of basic problems in physical theory and their possible solutions--the understanding of space and time, quantum and relativity theories and recent attempts to unite them--and deal with related questions in theoretical biology. The approach is non-technical, with an emphasis on the assumptions of modern science and their implications for understanding the world we live in.The book, which originated in a highly successful radio series, provides a vivid first-hand account of some of the astounding and perplexing developments in modern science, a rare overview that will intrigue the informed non-scientist and the scientist alike.
Seven Life Lessons of Chaos: Spiritual Wisdom from the Science of Changeby F. David Peat John Briggs
Introduces the major ideas of chaos theory. Shows how they can be used metaphorically in day to day living.
Synchronicity: The Bridge Between Matter and Mindby F. David Peat
With fascinating historical anecdotes and incisive scientific analysis, this important work combines ancient thought with modern theory to reveal a new way of viewing our universe that can expand our awareness, our lives, and may well point the way to a new science for the twenty-first century.

Once March Madness ended, you thought you were done with brackets, right?
The spreadsheets, the concentration, and the formulas for picking which team is going to win it all is downright addicting. So why would the sports world deny you of this gut wrenching, nerve-racking, hair pulling American tradition?
Who are we kidding, we love brackets...and the ceremonial burning, ripping, or crumpling up of this infuriating document.
So when the people at Madden '12 told us that we can decide who the next player to grace the cover of the game will be, I don't know about you, but I got pretty excited.
We have reached round three at this point, the elite eight, and this is when it gets serious. We have some of the NFL's best players still in the running for this prestigious honor, all of whom will have serious knee, shoulder, and back injuries in 2011. Hey, no pain, no gain.
Here are the remaining eight Madden cover contestants and your winner...

Just when it looked like the Dallas Stars were back on track following a five-game losing streak earlier this month, they were derailed a bit in Arizona Saturday night. It wasn't just that they lost 3-0 to the Phoenix Coyotes, but that they lost more players to injuries. The number of players lost Saturday was three, including goaltender Kari Lehtonen.
Lehtonen was helped off the ice 5:31 into the game after pulling a groin while stopping a Derek Morris shot on a play that was offside. Trevor Daley left midway through the first period with what was thought to be a back injury. Center Vernon Fiddler left late in the second with a groin injury.
"We're still evaluating, but both Dales and Kari are unlikely for Monday (at Colorado) for sure," said Stars coach Glen Gulutzan. "We don't know to what degree yet, and Fiddler will be day-to-day."
The three players injured Saturday join left wing Brenden Morrow (upper body), defenseman Alex Goligoski (broken thumb) and right wing Adam Burish (broken hand) on the list of injured Dallas players.
As for the game, it was all Coyotes.
"We didn't have it tonight and the injuries didn't help," said Stars goalie Andrew Raycroft, who took over for Lehtonen in the first period and stopped 33 of 36 shots. "You go down a goalie and then down to five D in the first five minutes or whatever it was, it's tough, especially against a team that works hard down low. They kind of took it to us a little bit at times during the night."
The Coyotes outshot the Stars 39-26 and scored one goal in each period to hand the Stars their sixth regulation defeat in the last nine games (2-6-1). Coyotes goaltender Mike Smith stopped all 26 shots he faced for his second shutout of the season.
"I don't think we responded great [to the injuries]. I am not taking anything away from Phoenix. They outplayed us tonight, no question," Gulutzan said. "But I thought there was a little window of opportunity if we had some kind of jump that we could have pushed this game as a good road game, and kept it 1-0 or 0-0 for a while. We didn't get a call early and after that we didn't respond with any life or any enthusiasm. We just let them take the game to us."
The Coyotes first goal came on play when as Raycroft was playing a shot by Keith Yandle, he was run over by Phoenix captain Shane Doan. The puck got behind Raycroft and Mikkel Boedker pushed the puck over the goal line to give the Coyotes a 1-0 lead with 4:55 left in the first period.
Phoenix extended the lead to 2-0 at 6:02 of the second when Ray Whitney finished off a give-and-go with Radim Vrbata, scoring off a shot from the right circle.
The Coyotes finished off the scoring in the third when they forced a turnover behind the Dallas net and Taylor Pyatt scored on the rebound of a Daymond Langkow shot with 9:32 remaining.
The Stars, who fell to 13-9-1 on the season, will wrap up their two-game road trip in Colorado on Monday. With the injury list growing, the Stars will be facing a stiff challenge.
"Stick with the process. You keep doing the little things," said Stars defenseman Stephane Robidas. "When things get hard there are two ways to react to it, you can either fold and you try to find excuses or you take up to the challenge. Everybody has to step up their game. It's an opportunity for some guys to show what they can do. You want a chance to show what you can do. It's up to us to do it."
*Stars coach Glen Gulutzan said Brenden Morrow is scheduled to get an injection for his back on Monday and is still expected to return to the lineup for Thursday's game against Ottawa.
*The Stars were 0-1 on the power play Saturday and are now 0-16 on the PP over the last seven games.
*The Stars have been shut out in three of their last seven games.
*Krys Barch and Adam Pardy were healthy scratches for the Stars on Saturday.

Check out this video from CNET TV. It shows the original Cray 1 and discusses how Star Trek influenced the design of the granddaddy of the supercomputers.
I've already mentioned how a typical laptop today has more raw CPU power than a Cray supercomputer from 1988. The Cray in that discussion was the Cray Y-MP from 1988. It wasn't the first Cray supercomputer however. The very first Cray supercomputer was the Cray 1, which was built in 1976.
This video shows the Cray 1 and tells how Star Trek influenced the signature-curved tower design of the Cray supercomputer line. Along the way, you get a mini-Cracking Open as they look inside the Cray 1.
Bicentennial computing power
If a typical laptop CPU outpowers a Cray Y-MP from 1988, your typical iPhone has more computing power than a Cray 1. The Cray 1 ran on only an 80Mhz vector processor CPU. Processing power would top out at 136 Megaflops. (Remember that a typical laptop today can do about 15GIGAflops.) It could support a maximum memory of 8MB of RAM — unheard of in those days.
How much would such a computer set you back? A mere $8 million. In today's money, that's a relative bargain of only $28 million. By comparison, IBM Roadrunner costs $133 million. Certainly that's more FLOPS for the bucks, but it also shows how expensive the pinnacle of computing is now compared to 32 years ago.

Alek and Deryn are on the last leg of their round-the-world quest to end World War I, reclaim Alek's throne as Prince of Austria, and finally fall in love. The first two objectives are complicated by the fact that their ship, the Leviathan, continues to detour farther away from the heart of the war (and crown). And the love thing would be a lot easier if Alek knew Deryn was a girl. (She has to pose as a boy in order to serve in the British Airforce.) And if they weren't technically enemies.
The tension thickens as the Leviathan steams toward New York City with a homicidal lunatic onboard: secrets suddenly unravel, characters reappear, and nothing is at it seems in this thunderous conclusion to Scott Westerfeld's brilliant trilogy.

STRONG stomach to be on this ride!
OT: ONTY another one to fall victim to a failed trial for NSCLC. NSCLC has a long string of trial failures...maybe ONTY's reminder today bringing us down.
Sentiment: Buy
no doubt. We've all seen crazy stuff in biotech, but if these guys started a Ph3 without being extremely confident (there are no certainties) of the Ph2 results, then that would rank up there with the craziest. In most situations, companies can spend up to 9 months or a year completing ph2 analysis before moving to ph3 and usually try to get an SPA from theFDA before proceeding...anyway for holders, first weekend in June will require an even stronger stomach. We could go to $2 in short order if ph2 does not come thru as expected maybe $13 - $15 if it does.
They already had a meeting with the FDA about the phase III design. I hope that they're not that reckless as to start phase III without knowing phase II results were good. That would be massive mismanagement.
Either way, I will sell some shares before the June 3rd presentation and hold the rest. We shall know soon enough.
I'm telling you...it's $2, not $15

Associate Professor of Sociology

Email: firstname.lastname@example.com
Room: E0.16 Social Sciences
Telephone: +44(0)24 761 51706
Advice & Feedback Hours: 16.00-17.00 Tuesdays
I specialise in social theory and in the politics of knowledge and culture in the context of modernisation, capitalist development and its attendant violence. My contribution to the discipline includes an innovative account of the role of values and knowleges associated with creativity, vitality and evolution to the constitution of modern political power - primarily set out in Biopolitical Experience: Foucault Power & Positive Critique. This builds on the work of Arendt, Benjamin, Simmel, Deleuze and especially Foucault. It also includes collaborative work with the Authority Research Network to establish the interdisciplinary study of 'emergent authority', insisting on the continued significance of authority, culture and spirituality for understanding power relations and politics (against the excessive emphasis on technocratic management and science in 'governmentality studies' and much Foucauldian sociology). My work is increasingly focused on issues of political spirituality and exploring intersections between contemporary power and religion.
New Paper: 'Ecological Attunement in a Theological Key: Adventures in Anti-Fascist Aesthetics' GeoHumanities
Areas of Expertise: Post-structuralist and Cultural theory; Foucault; Political sociology; Authority Studies; Capitalism and Religion; Political Spirituality/Spiritual Activism; Biopolitics and Vitalism.

PhD Supervision
I am interested in supervising PhD projects in my areas of expertise including: social, cultural and political theory (new materialist, post-structuralist and critical theory approaches); political cultures of life; biopolitical racism; Christianity and global politics; authority; political sociology; sociology of culture. I currently co-supervise the following students:
- Sam Burgum 'Occupy London: Post-Politics versus Politics Proper in an Era of Consensus'
- Morteza Hashemi Madani 'Social Theory and the Secular Fundamentalisms'
- Leonardo Vasconcelos de Castro Moreira 'Church without borders: The Universal Church of The Kingdom of God in Madrid, Kiev and Geneva'

- Kathryn Medien 'Writing Oneself: Genealogies of the Western Academic Feminist'
- Seb Rumsby 'Social Factors Affecting Economic Development in Vietnam's Highlands'
I am passionate about teaching sociology. My teaching practice is bound up with my interests as a critical sociologist and social/political theorist - through teaching I strive to foster capacities for agency, critique and collaboration. I teach the following modules:
- Capitalism & Religion - Third year module
- Power, Class and Social Theory - *NEW* Second year module
- Sociological Perspectives - First year core module (co taught with Charles Turner and Nicholas Gane)
- Cultures of Life, Authority & Power in Modernity - MA module (not running in 2015/16)

Research Groups & Leadership
I am committed to building academic community. I actively participate in a number of research networks, arranging events and working towards joint publications. With Leila Dawney (Brighton Geography) I am leading an AHRC research network 'Authority Research Network'. This year, with a number of Warwick colleagues from across the social sciences, I established the Institute for Advanced Studies network 'Authority & Political Technology'.

B.O. slump rumored to be reason for Cohen departure
Arthur Cohen, president of worldwide marketing for Paramount's motion picture group since October 1989, abruptly exited his post Tuesday.
As yet, Paramount has not replaced Cohen, with the worldwide marketing group reporting directly to vice chairman and chief operating officer Rob Friedman while the company searches for a replacement. Friedman, a former marketing exec, is expected to participate directly in the studio's film campaigns until a replacement for Cohen is found.
Cohen is remaining as a consultant, but the studio refused to discuss his role.
Said Cohen: "I started wanting to do this right after I paid my income taxes this year. I hold the world record for holding this job one month shy of 14 years, and there comes a point in your life where you want to travel another road."
Widely known in ad circles, Cohen was a former exec VP of advertising for Revlon and a topper at one of the divisions of J. Walter Thompson.
Said Friedman: "He asked to step down from the day-to-day rigors of running the marketing department, which he has done so successfully for the past 14 years, and we have agreed to honor his request."
Cohen's departure from the underperforming studio has long been rumored.
Fallout from pix
Many industry insiders interpret Cohen's departure as a likely fallout from the studio's string of box office disappointments this year.
Those include "Lara Croft Tomb Raider: The Cradle of Life," which grossed $64.6 million domestically — less than half of the 2001 original. "The Core" and"Marci X" also underwhelmed, though a remake of "The Italian Job" has rung up more than $103 million since its May 30 bow.
Collectively, the summer releases grossed $209 million, giving Par a sixth-place market share of 5.5%. Distrib, which has long emphasized profitability over market share, also sits sixth on the year to date with $450 million, or 7% of the market.
Studio's other notable misfires over the past year include "Star Trek: Nemesis." The 10th installment in the studio's lucrative franchise, "Nemesis" grossed a disappointing $43 million in its December-January domestic run.
And just last weekend, "Dickie Roberts: Former Child Star" opened limply, though it finished No. 1 over a lackluster industry frame.
Though it is unclear who may replace Cohen, there are a finite number of obvious candidates who could step into the post.
Less marketing at Par
Par's considered a special-case marketing post, as most of its pics go out with a bit fewer engagements than the 3,000-plus run that's become the norm for many major's. So its marketing budgets are also often a bit less extravagant.
At the same time, the studio does have a number of event pics each year for which a "saturation-level" run is required and also a major marketing campaign. Not many execs have lots of experience handling both types of releases.
Ex-MGM marketing prexy Gerry Rich would appear to be one potential candidate for the Par post, though he's expected to help out Miramax again this year on distrib's always-intensive Academy campaign. Rich came close to signing on full time at Miramax last year, finally nixing the idea in part due to a hesitancy to move to Gotham.
Some say Friedman may reach out to a former colleague at Warner Bros. And yet another scenario sees Par promoting from within to fill the top marketing post.
During his 14-year tenure, Cohen guided the campaigns for such Oscar-winning pics as "Forrest Gump," "Braveheart" and "Titanic." Other hits released during his years include "Ghost," the four Tom Clancy movies "The Hunt for Red October," "Patriot Games," "Clear and Present Danger" and "The Sum of All Fears," "Mission: Impossible," "Mission: Impossible 2," and "What Women Want."
