NVIDIA GeForce GTX 580M and 570M for laptops
NVIDIA introduced its most powerful laptop graphics cards yet; the GeForce GTX 580M and GeForce GTX 570M. The 580M looks like a mobile version of the GF114, it has 384 CUDA cores, 620MHz core, 1240MHz shaders, 256-bit memory bus and 2GB GDDR5 clocked at 3GHz.
The GeForce GTX 570M likely has the same silicon, but with 336 CUDA cores, 575MHz core, 1150MHz shaders, 192-bit memory bus, and 1.5GB or 3GB GDDR5 clocked at 3GHz. Both chips support NVIDIA's Optimus technology but the company hasn't disclosed power consumption data yet.
Dell's Alienware M18x is the first laptop with these new GPUs.
NVIDIA today announced the world's fastest notebook graphics processing unit (GPU)(i), the NVIDIA(R) GeForce(R) GTX 580M. Available now in the Alienware M18x, the new GPU sets new standards in industry leading benchmarks and games. It will also be available soon in the Alienware M17x notebook along with NVIDIA Optimus(TM) technology.
"The best game support. The best gaming features. The best gaming performance available anywhere. That's the essence of the GeForce GTX 580M," said Rene Haas, general manager of notebook products at NVIDIA. "With power like this, you can turn all the knobs to 11."
The first notebook PC to feature the GeForce GTX 580M, the Alienware M18x offers the option of two GeForce GTX 580M GPUs in one system for up to double the gaming performance, using NVIDIA SLI(R) technology. Not to be outdone, the Alienware M17x will offer the GeForce GTX 580M along with NVIDIA Optimus(TM) technology and will deliver 5 hours of battery life in Facebook, and 100 frames per second performance in Call of Duty: Black Ops.
"Gamers aspire to experience games at their highest settings," says Eddy Goyanes, product marketing manager for Alienware. "Alienware activates the technology designed to enable those aspirations. With the launch of the GeForce GTX 580M on the Alienware M17x, and a dual card option on the M18x, that synergy continues -- Alienware delivers the ultimate gaming experience."
GeForce GTX 580M GPUs are the fastest Microsoft DirectX 11 notebook GPUs on the market, offering up to six times the tessellation performance of any other notebook GPU.(ii) They are also more efficient, with up to 20 percent better performance per watt than the previous generation.(iii)
NVIDIA also introduced the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 570M GPU, which offers 20 percent faster performance than the previous generation product it replaces.(iv)
The power of GeForce GTX GPUs means gamers can play at full 1080p high-definition resolutions with the advanced technology features that set GeForce GPUs apart from the competition.

OCZ RevoDrive 3 X2 review
The world of Solid State storage technology is full of surprises and the development rate is exceedingly progressive. As such we today test the OCZ RevoDrive 3 X2.
Let me just throw some numbers at you to get that tickly in your belly ; 1500 MB/s maximum read performance, or what about 1250 MB/s maximum write performance ? No that still didn't do it for you ... well what about 200.000 IOPS (4K writes) ? Yeah that is where we have arrived in the year 2011. It's insanely fast, it will be insanely expensive but it is most definitely insanely sexy.
Check out this exclusive review right here.
ECS AMD A75 Motherboards Announced
With AMD Llano APUs soon on sale ECS will have a total of three mainboards powered by the A75 chipset, for the moment at least.
They carry the names of A75F-M, A75F-M2 and A75F-A (Black Deluxe) and are of the micro-ATX form factor, except for the third one, which is of the full ATX variety.
The A75F-M features 4 DDR3 memory slots, as well as six SATA 6.0 Gbps connectors, one PCI Express x16 port (for graphics cards) and four USB 3.0 ports, plus 8 channel audio (with S/PDIF) and three display outputs (D-Sub, HDMI and DVI).
Meanwhile, the A75F-M2 has only 2 DDR3 RAM slots, the same number of USB 3.0 connectors as above, 6 SATA 6.0 Gbps ports, one PCI Express x16 slot of its own and 6 channel audio, plus HDMI and D-Sub (DVI is optional).
As for the A75F-A Black Deluxe, it has five SATA 6.0 Gbps ports, four USB 3.0 ports, one eSATA, one PCI Express x16 slot, 8 channel audio with S/PDIF and four DDR3 RAM slots.
AMD to phase out Phenom II fast
With all the new APU's and FX processors on the horizon AMD will phase out older processors fast, VR-Zone reports that the Phenom II's are the first ones to go as AMD is expecting to have phased them out entirely by Q3, although this might have been shifted by a quarter by now, since as you can see, AMD expected to have both the A-series and the new FX-series out in the market at Q2, while they're only just making that date for the A-series:
"That said it's fairly certain we can expect the Phenom II's to be gone by Q4 this year and the Athlon II's are following the same destiny, although they might still be around early next year in small quantities if there's still demand for them.
By Q1 next year, unless of course AMD decided to delay its plans by a quarter, all we're left with is the E-series at the entry-level, the A-series as AMD's main product and the FX-series being AMD's enthusiast platform having what AMD seems to expect, a similar share with the E-series of its total shipments.
The current E-series of APUs will also be phased out with the single core E-240 being the first to go in Q4, having been replaced by the dual core E-300 model in Q3. The E-350 will hang around until Q1 2012, although it's more powerful sibling, the E-450 should launch in Q3 as well and it's going to be the really interesting part to watch as although it's only 50MHz faster it will feature an improved graphics core and support for faster DDR3 1333MHz memory.
On a side note, only AMD's A-series of APU's will support Blu-ray 3D playback, so if you're planning on building an HTPC based on the E-series, think again if you want to watch Blu-ray 3D content. This includes the socket FM1 E2-3200 as well, but overall it's a minor consideration for most consumers.

Corsair Force 3 120GB SSD review
Corsair added two new SATA 3 6G SSDs to their Force lineup, the Force 3 and Force 3 GT, with the 3 as indicator for SATA 3. The difference in-between the two products is to be found in its NAND flash memory, the GT will be a notch faster in throughput as it makes use of synchronous NAND flash memory, the regular 3 models will run one gear slower, yet still incredibly fast thanks to slightly cheaper asynchronous NAND flash memory.
Both drives come with that already famous SandForce SF-2281 controller to deliver at up to 550 MBps read and 510 MBps write speeds. We check out the Corsair Force 3 120GB.
Check out the review right here.
Super Talent Announces TeraDrive PT3 SSD
Super Talent Technology, a leading manufacturer of flash storage solutions and DRAM memory modules, today announced their next generation SSD, the TeraDrive PT3.
Featuring the SandForce 2200 processor, SATA 6 Gb/s interface, and Double Data Rate, ONFiTM flash, the new TeraDrive PT3 offers a significant leap in performance over drives offered just a few months ago. The union of these 3 new technologies has forever changed the storage landscape. Right out of the gate, this new generation SSD stretches well within the new found bandwidth promised by the SATA 3.0 bus and breaks the 500MB/s barrier in both Read and Write scores. The comparisons between SSDs and HDDs just became a little harder to justify.
The only SSD processor to compress data before writing, SandForce's unique set of technologies enables the new TeraDrive PT3 to offer enhanced performance, flash durability and data integrity. Add to that the introduction of ONFi, double data rate flash, and the SATA 6 Gb/s interface, and we have one of the largest incremental leaps in performance that the storage market has ever seen.
"To reach this level of performance, just a few months ago, required two SSDs in a RAID array. Now a new generation NAND flash and the SATA 3.0 interface have clearly moved the performance bottleneck elsewhere", Peter Carcione, SuperTalent Director of Product Marketing.
Available in capacities 60, 120, 240 and 480GB, the TeraDrive PT3 begins shipping today.
Asus Maximus IV Gene-Z Motherboard Released
ASUS has now finally released the Maximus IV Gene-Z micro-ATX motherboard that is based on Intel's Z68 chipset and is designed to run LGA 1155 Sandy Bridge processors.
The Maximus IV Gene-Z includes an important number of advanced features like AMD CrossFireX and Nvidia SLI support, ROG Connect support and an on-board Supreme X-Fi sound chip.In addition to the two PCI Express x16 slots that are required for dual-GPU setups, Asus has also included a PCI-E x4 slot.
Right next to it, users will find the on-board Power and Reset buttons as well as a BIOS debug LCD. Storage is provided by six SATA ports, two of the 6Gbps variety, and Asus has also included a USB 3.0 header which allows for two such ports to be routed to the front of the case.
Another two USB 3.0 ports can be found on the rear I/O panel along with an impressive number of USB 2.0 ports, two eSATA connectors, 7.1-channel audio with a digital S/PDIF output and a Gigabit Ethernet port.
This means that the Maximus IV Gene-Z is fully compatible with the LucidLogix Virtu on-the-fly graphics switching technology as well as Intel's Quick Sync technology. Smart Response is also supported. CPU power is delivered by a complex Extreme Engine Digi+ PWM with an 8-phase design that Asus claims it can deliver a whopping 250A of current to the processor.
The recommended retail price is set at $185 and the Maximus IV Gene-Z should reach retail store shelves soon. We have a review sample in-house btw, so expect a review anytime soon.
AMD Bulldozer Engineering Sample CPU Overclocked to 4.63GHz
It's all silent regarding AMD Bulldozer FX but but check this leak out, an FX-Series processor with an impressive 4.63GHz overclock.
The CPU that managed to achieve this feat seems to be an engineering sample of the FX-8130P and required about 1.5V in order to be stable enough to run the Super Pi benchmark at the above mentioned frequency.
The FX-8130P is supposed to be AMD's fastest desktop Bulldozer processor as it features eight processing core that are run at a base frequency of 3.8GHz. Based on the load placed on its cores, the chip can increase its frequency up to 4.2GHz thanks to AMD's Turbo Core 2.0 technology.
In addition to the four Bulldozer modules, the FX-8130P also includes 8MB of Level 2 cache memory and 8MB of L3 cache as well as an integrated dual-channel memory controller that supports DDR3-1866 modules.

MARIA BETANCOURT AND PEDRO BETANCOURT, INDIVIDUALLY AND ON BEHALF OF ALL OTHERS SIMILARLY SITUATED, PLAINTIFFS,v.CITIMORTGAGE, INC., A NEW YORK CORPORATION; CITIBANK, N.A., A NATIONAL BANKING ASSOCIATION; CITIGROUP, INC., A DELAWARE CORPORATION; AND DOES 1-100, DEFENDANTS.
This matter is presently before the Court on Defendants CitiMortgage, Inc., Citibank, N.A., and Citigroup Inc.'s Unopposed Motion to Transfer to the Central District of California (the "Motion to Transfer"). The Court finds that instant motion, which is unopposed by Plaintiffs, may be resolved without oral argument. Fed.R.Civ.P. 78(b); Civ.L.R. 7-1(a).
Having considered all of the papers and argument submitted in support of the Motion to Transfer, considering that Plaintiffs do not oppose transfer, and good cause appearing therefore, the Court rules as follows.
"For the convenience of parties and witnesses, in the interest of justice, a district court may transfer any civil action to any other district or division where it might have been brought." 28 U.S.C. § 1404(a). In determining whether transfer is appropriate in a particular case, courts consider private and public factors affecting the convenience of the forum. Private factors include: (1) the plaintiff's choice of forum, (2) the convenience of the witnesses and parties, (3) the ease of access to sources of proof, (4) the respective parties' contacts with the forum, (5) the contacts relating to the plaintiff's cause of action in the chosen forum, (6) the differences in the costs of litigation in the two forums, (7) the state that is most familiar with the governing law, and (8) the availability of compulsory process to compel attendance of unwilling non-party witnesses. Jones v. GNC Franchising, Inc., 211 F.3d 495, 498-99 (9th Cir. 2000); Decker Coal Co. v. Commonwealth Edison Co., 805 F.2d 834, 843 (9th Cir. 1986). Public factors include court congestion, local interest in having localized controversies decided at home, the interest in avoiding unnecessary conflicts of laws, and the interest in trying the case in a forum familiar with the applicable law. Id. at 843. The Court finds that a transfer of this case to the Central District of California, where the case could have been originally filed, is appropriate. Due the overlap in legal issues between this case and the Bernard and King cases and the overlap in the putative classes, it is in the interests of judicial economy as well as the convenience of the parties and witnesses that all three cases be heard in the same forum. Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED AS FOLLOWS:
1. Defendants' Motion to Transfer is GRANTED;
2. Defendants' Motion to Dismiss is DENIED without prejudice to renewal in transferee court.
3.This action shall be TRANSFERRED forthwith to the United States District Court for the Central District of California, Western Division.

How to Send Long Direct-Messages on Twitter
Twitter is a popular micro-blogging service designed to keep your friends and followers informed of your activities from day to day. Popular with users for its simplicity and ease of use, Twitter limits the number of characters in a "tweet" to 140 -- this is the maximum length of an SMS message. In addition to tweets, Twitter also supports a "Direct Message" feature that you can use to send private messages to another Twitter user. Like a standard tweet, the 140-character limit applies to direct messages. You can always exceed that limit, though, sending a longer message and forcing Twitter to split it into two or more parts.
Step 1
Click the "Messages" tab at the top of your Twitter account to open the Messages window.
Step 2
Click the "New Message" button to send a direct message.
Step 3
Type the username of the follower to whom you want to send the message in the "To" box at the top of the New Message dialog.
Step 4
Type your message in the "New Message" dialog. If you exceed 140 characters, your message will be split and sent to your follower as two or more messages.
Step 5
Click "Send" to send your message.
Tips & Warnings
- You can send direct messages only to your followers.
- Make sure your Internet or wireless signal is strong before sending a long direct message. If your message is sent in two parts and you lose your carrier signal during the transmission, Twitter may post the second half of your message directly to your public tweets.

Football: Balboa hangs for three quarters, but falls on the road to Sequoia
By Jeremy Balan
Visiting Balboa High School dropped its fourth straight non-league game in a 54-19 loss to Sequoia on Friday.
The visiting Bucs (0-4) were competitive through the first three quarters, but Sequoia (3-0-1) scored 27 unanswered points late in the game and sunk any chance of a Balboa upset.
The late Sequoia surge was ignited by a standout performance from junior running back Josh Lauese, who had a game-high 206 yards on only nine carries, often breaking multiple Balboa tackles during long runs.
"He's just entertaining to watch," Sequoia head coach Rob Poulos said of Lauese. "Week-to-week he just brings those types of [plays] on offense and defense."
While the Bucs were roundly outmatched and outsized, a big reason for their late struggles was fatigue. Balboa dressed only 22 players and they were visibly drained after the game.
"Our whole preseason, we haven't had our whole offensive line," said Balboa head coach Alvaro Carvajal. "We've been battling injuries the whole preseason."
Sequoia drove at-will for most of the game, racking up 522 yards of total offense, but Balboa stayed close due to five Sequoia turnovers.
"Once we got out of our own way, we were fine," Poulos said. "That was the frustrating part. I don't even have words for it."
The Bucs looked to be in a position to challenge Sequoia early in the third quarter when Balboa senior quarterback Kerati Apilakvanichakit found receiver Andres Arellano over the top of the defense for a 50-yard score, cutting the lead to 21-13.
Arellano had two 50-yard touchdown receptions in the game and finished with 147 yards on four receptions, often simply outrunning the Sequoia secondary.
"We saw an opportunity and he was taking advantage of the guy who was on him," Carvajal said. "We just let him make a play."
Another bright spot for Balboa was the play of speedy running back Greg Warren, who had a team-high 110 yards on a season-high 21 carries.
"We wanted to feed him the ball," Carvajal said. "When he gets the ball, you really see it in his body language, he's fighting for every yard. I want to reward that and I try to get him the ball as much as I can now."
Balboa showed flashes of promise and big-play ability against Sequoia, but as a whole, the non-league season for the Bucs was one to forget.
"Our preseason was extremely tough, but that's how I wanted it," Carvajal said. "I felt we could have won all of those games in my heart. I really did and I still do. But for whatever reason we're 0-4 and now the AAA comes. Now we have to buckle down."
Scoring Summary
First Quarter
S: 11:19 — Josh Lauese 48-yard run (Matt Jenkins kick)

well first off i want to say that Bal is a great school and has an amazing footbal coach.but Bal has lost every pre season game, and maybe it's because they try to "KEEP IT IN THE FAMILY" meaning they have no fresh talent majority of the coache's at Bal graduated from Bal and you know what they say if you try and keep your weakness in THE FAMILY it tends to run in the FAMILY and that is what we have with the BUCS.please dont get me wrong ALVARO has done a great job but AL all were saying is MAN UP AND STEP YOUR GAME UP :(
Great Job Buc's!! I'm so proud of this team! They have done nothing else but work hard!! These boys look like young MEN now thanks to all the COACHES who mostly all "graduated from BAL!!!" TURKEY DAY, HERE WE COME!!!! GO BUCS!!!!

The authors trace the history of metformin and its clinical use to the present day. Recent insights into its mode of action and latest data from experimental and clinical medicine have unraveled novel properties of metformin, which may be particularly useful in the treatment of conditions other than diabetes. Results of ongoing clinical trials will show whether or not the hypoglycemic effect of metformin will become only one of the many to be employed in clinical practice.

Although modern turbulence models have been greatly improved in recent years by advances in sub-scale techniques, little has been done to address the interaction between turbulence modeling and aerodynamic shocks. Consequently, modern turbulence models are hampered by inadequate source terms and eddy viscosities that work well on a case by case basis. The objective of this study is to demonstrate straightforward modifications to the blended kεkω turbulence model that result in vastly improved computations for aerodynamic shocks. A flapped nozzle is chosen as the primary test case due to the complexities of the three dimensional flow field over a wide range of flow conditions. © 2011 by D. Stephen Nichols, SimCenter. Source

An adaptive hybrid mesh generation method is described to automatically provide spa-tial discretizations suitable for computational uid dynamics or other 2D solver applica-tions. This method employs a hierarchical grid generation technique to create a background mesh, an extrusion-type method for inserting boundary layers, and an unstructured tri-angulation to stitch between the boundary layers and background mesh. This method provides appropriate mesh resolution based on geometry segments from a file, and has the capability of adapting the background mesh based on a spacing field generated from solu-tion data or some other arbitrary source. By combining multiple approaches to the grid generation process, this method seeks to benefit from the strengths of each, while avoiding the weaknesses of each.

The present study details the implementation of a time accurate method for the tracking of particles being acted upon by a continuous gas phase and gravity. The Lagrangian particle tracking approach was implemented within the framework of a parallel, incompressible, unstructured, node-centered finite-volume flow solver. The paper gives a method for selecting time steps for individual particles such that interactions with the continuum phase are updated at particle locations nearest the continuum-phase nodes while constraining the particle from passing beyond boundaries of the relevant adjacent cell. An implementation of this technique for three-dimensional nonuniform multi-element unstructured grids is given in the context of domain decomposition for implementation on distributed-memory parallel computers. Results of simulations with and without particle-particle collisions compare favorably with experimental validation results. © 2010 Elsevier Ltd. Source

An implicit algorithm is presented for the unsteady three-dimensional incompressible Navier-Stokes equations including the thermal energy equation, formulated in a strongly coupled manner. Thermal buoyancy is addressed using the Boussinesq approximation. The method of artificial compressibility is introduced to cast the resulting equations into a time marching form. A finite volume discretization is applied for general unstructured grids with nonsimplical elements. Numerical flux formulations are presented for both Roe's approximate Riemann solver and an HLLC approach. A backward Euler scheme is utilized for temporal discretization. The resulting implicit nonlinear equation is solved at each time step using an approximate Newton iteration algorithm. All boundary conditions are applied implicitly. The resulting algorithm has been implemented in Tenasi, an in-house developed flow solver, and validated for canonical test cases from the three regimes (forced, natural, and mixed) of laminar heat transfer and one regime (mixed) of turbulent heat transfer. A final application of the current algorithm is the prediction of forced turbulent heat transfer in a two-pass ribbed turbulator. All computed solutions are in close agreement with analytical solutions, other benchmark simulations, or experimental data. Source

28th AIAA Applied Aerodynamics Conference | Year: 2010
Many approaches for moving and deforming mesh have been developed, but the approach adopted often depends on both the meshing scheme and the proposed application. Approaches based on a spring analogy with linear torsional springs or solution of partial differential equations have been used, but are generally very expensive to solve at each time step and are not trivial to parallelize. Here, a universal approach to grid motion known as the algebraic interpolation method (AIM) is followed to manage deforming surfaces. This method is universal and applicable to any grid type. Also, it is perfectly suitable to a parallel platform and can be implemented efficiently. The original scheme has some difficulty handling two-node bending mesh deformation involved in various fluid-structure interaction problems and other cases in which mesh deformation is driven solely by the surface motion. Several modifications have been made for these applications. It is determined that the grid quality can be improved significantly by adding a smoothing algorithm. Extra connectivities can also help improve the grid quality. The current scheme is applied to several well known synthetic jet applications from a NASA Langley Workshop for validation. Results are presented for the mesh deformation of NACA0012 airfoil and Suboff body. Free surface evolution of S175 container ship is also included along with its two-node bending mesh deformation. © 2010 by the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Inc. Source

text: I heard during the Pitt/Uconn game that they will have a 6"11" freshman next year...did a quick google search and found out it is indeed "Bubbles", a player who is from Jamaica and is believed to be the tallest teenaged girl in the world... What is the scouting report on this player? She will tower over Griner! Not only that, she seems like a vivacious, fun-loving typical teenage girly-girl who can play some hoops. This is a very intriguing addition to the class of very good players coming in next year representing WCBB!

A virtual tour of Tokyo by helicopter. Very beautiful and very professional photography twilight and night Tokyo from the air. The film can be seen as a documentary, species, or use for relaxation. Have a nice trip!
Coming Up For Air is a studio album by Dutch progressive rock band Kayak, released in 2008. This is the first 'normal' album after two concept albums (Merlin and Nostradamus). Most songs are sensible and quite sad, like the fine Broken White. There are some pretty heavy ones as well, like the starter and the finisher Alienation and title song Coming up for Air (which are both great songs). Not as good as their masterpiece Merlin - Bard of the Unseen, but this disk will be a good introduction for everyone who wants to get acquainted with Kayak and hasn't done so yet.
There are the fortunate few who really encountered Chris Whitley's music during his brief lifetime (he passed away from cancer in November of 2005); for everyone else, recordings like this are gifts. Whitley's last official offering was Reiter In, recorded as he was dying – he was a pauper, an imperfect businessman who had been deeply exploited by unscrupulous labels and "handlers." The record was a way to leave something for his daughter, Trixie, a brilliant singer, pianist, and songwriter in her own right, and was the last we thought we'd get from him. On Air was recorded on September 8, 2003 at Radio Bremen. It showcases the artist many of us remember best: a guy with a beat vintage National Steel guitar with a stompbox for his foot, playing his songs with all the revelatory passion and pathos he'd written them with.
Originally released on white vinyl as a double set in which one disc was an LP while the other was a 12" EP, Live! In the Air Age is an impressive testament to one of prog rock's more interesting results. Bandleader Bill Nelson is better known for his solo work of the '80s and on, but prior to that he was a burgeoning guitar hero with a blazing style and a talented bunch of players backing him up.

'You saved my life, gave me a reason to live' – DJ Zinhle celebrates her daughter's 1st birthday today
Popular SA DJ, Zinhle Jiyane is celebrating the first birthday of her daughter with rapper AKA.
If you recall, sometime last year, she announced on her blog that her 3 year relationship with rapper AKA was over.
This was after she discovered SA TV personality Bonang Matheba (D'banj's ex) was secretly having an affair with AKA when she was pregnant.
Zinhle has now moved on from all that and is concentrating on her daughter. Thanking Kairo for saving her life,
Zinhle wrote,

Thelonious Monk
With the arrival Thelonious Sphere Monk, modern music— let alone modern culture—simply hasn't been the same. Recognized as one of the most inventive pianists of any musical genre, Monk achieved a startlingly original sound that even his most devoted followers have been unable to successfully imitate.
His musical vision was both ahead of its time and deeply rooted in tradition, spanning the entire history of the music from the "stride" masters of James P. Johnson and Willie "the Lion" Smith to the tonal freedom and kinetics of the "avant garde." And he shares with Edward "Duke" Ellington the distinction of being one of the century's greatest American composers. At the same time, his commitment to originality in all aspects of life—in fashion, in his creative use of language and economy of words, in his biting humor, even in the way he danced away from the piano—has led fans and detractors alike to call him "eccentric," "mad" or even "taciturn." Consequently, Monk has become perhaps the most talked about and least understood artist in the history of jazz.Read more

Due to inclement weather and a chance of lightning, the annual Governors Ball music festival in New York was forced to cancel its third and final day today. In an official statement, the festival organizers stated that, "The safety of fans, artists and crew always comes first," before noting, "We are just as devastated as you." Governors Ball is planning on issuing refunds to anyone who had single-day tickets to the event for Sunday, and partial-refunds for those with three-day passes. "At this time we expect all refunds to be processed within 21 days," The statement read. "All partial refunds will be based on the ticket price at which the ticket was purchased."
Needless to say, the thousands of fans with tickets to see some of their favorite acts, and the thousands more hoping to catch the day's performances via live stream, were severely let down—as were the artists on the bill who had hoped that the rain might let up.

A lot of the mass disappointment stemmed from those who were going to miss out on Kanye West's sole, officially announced live performance of 2016 in North America. Though he has said that he plans to tour the country at some point in September, Governors Ball was the only date that Yeezy had booked thus far following the release of his album The Life of Pablo a few months back.

All hope isn't lost, however. Kanye might still perform today. Summer Jam appears to be a go, though the festival stage portion has been nixed. With many of his G.O.O.D. Music brethren like Pusha T, Big Sean, and Desiigner on that bill, it's not outside the realm of possibility that Yeezy might show up himself. And if that weren't enough, his manager Scooter Braun had this to say:

The Origins of Order: Self-Organization and Selection in Evolutionby Stuart A. Kauffman
- LendMe LendMe™ Learn More
Stuart Kauffman here presents a brilliant new paradigm for evolutionary biology, one that extends the basic concepts of Darwinian evolution to accommodate recent findings and perspectives from the fields of biology, physics, chemistry and mathematics. The book drives to the heart of the exciting debate on the origins of life and maintenance of order in complex biological systems. It focuses on the concept of self-organization: the spontaneous emergence of order that is widely observed throughout nature Kauffman argues that self-organization plays an important role in the Darwinian process of natural selection. Yet until now no systematic effort has been made to incorporate the concept of self-organization into evolutionary theory. The construction requirements which permit complex systems to adapt are poorly understood, as is the extent to which selection itself can yield systems able to adapt more successfully. This book explores these themes. It shows how complex systems, contrary to expectations, can spontaneously exhibit stunning degrees of order, and how this order, in turn, is essential for understanding the emergence and development of life on Earth. Topics include the new biotechnology of applied molecular evolution, with its important implications for developing new drugs and vaccines; the balance between order and chaos observed in many naturally occurring systems; new insights concerning the predictive power of statistical mechanics in biology; and other major issues. Indeed, the approaches investigated here may prove to be the new center around which biological science itself will evolve. The work is written for all those interested in the cutting edge of research in the life sciences.
Editorial Reviews
"This book does a real service in building a bridge between reductionist and holistic ways of thinking about systems. . .Kauffman writes with great intelligence and clarity and is able to bring together a large range of theory and experimental information without getting bogged down in detail." Whole Earth Review
"For all the recent advances in molecular biology, we still lack a convincing explanation of how self-organising and self-replicating entities originated. Stuart Kauffman enters this arena with a book that seeks to show that self-organising structures of great complexity can assemble themselves much more easily, and much more understandably, than previous intuition suggested. . .Building on recent work in nonlinear mathematics, the idea at the heart of the book is truly important: even in vastly complicated interactive networks, a few simple rules can easilyif amazinglylead to order and self-organised patterns and processes. This represents a major advance in understanding how the living world works." Robert M. May, The Observer
"Stuart Kauffman's book. . .is a global representation of a new field, that will greatly enhance our physical understanding of Nature. It treats from a physical standpoint the processes of molecular selfordering, as biologists witness them in the living world, and it does so in a most original and authoritative way. A superb reading, not limited to physicists and biologists, having most important implications in natural philosophy." Manfred Eigen, Max-Planck Institut für Biophysikalische Chemie
"There are very few people in this world who ever ask the right questions of science, and they are the ones who affect its future most profoundly. Stuart Kauffman is one of these. Read this book." Philip Anderson, Nobel Laureate, Dept. of Physics, Princeton University
"The conventional concept of Darwinian evolution views populations of organisms as randomly varying systems shaped to adaptation by the external force of natural selection. But Darwinian theory must be expanded to recognize other sources of order based on the internal genetic and developmental constraints of organisms and on the structural limits and possibilities of general physical laws. Stu Kauffman has been exploring these unorthodox sources of order for many years and has now produced an integrative book that will become a landmark and a classic as we grope towards a more comprehensive and satisfying theory of evolution." Stephen Jay Gould, Harvard University
"Has there been time, since the origin of life on earth, for natural selection to produce the astonishing complexity of living organisms? Kauffman offers a new and unorthodox answer to this question. Given what we know about the way genes signal to one another, he argues that complexity can arise more readily than one would expect. I am not sure he is right, but I am sure that we should take his ideas seriously. John Maynard Smith, University of Sussex
"Professor Kauffman's book is highly imaginative and provocative." Lewis Wolpert, University College and Middlesex School of Medicine
"The facile claim that natural selection can accomplish every adaptive change fails to grapple with the problems posed by a highly structured system with its own laws of assembly and interaction. Stuart Kauffman's book, The Origins of Order, returns the problem of evolution to the central issue that evolutionists have been avoiding for too long, the problem of the evolution of a complex, organized system that we call, appropriately, an organism. Evolutionists had better take Kauffman's arguments seriously." Richard C. Lewontin, Harvard University
"I rarely agree with Stuart Kauffman, but I always enjoy arguing with him. If you are interested in novel theories, buy this bookyou will find lots of ideas worth wrestling with." Leslie E. Orgel, The Salk Institute

Centrally located, clean hotelPosted Jul 30, 2016
I really enjoyed my stay here. All the rooms were large, clean and had a balcony over looking the beach/ports of Amalfi. There is also a nice rooftop terrace and the breakfasts were fantastic. The staff was very nice and friendly to us as well. My only complaint is that it is noisy at night. It is located right on the street which is good for convenience but many people walk by at night and can be quite loud with the windows open. Regardless, I would still recommend for anyone staying in Amalfi.

Ordering a family ticket should be done at least one hour before arriving.
Utopia is an unique place where you can see a lot of various flowers and plants from all over the world. Unique atmosphere is kept there to sustain the habitat. A good place to be with kids as well
It was a nice surprise, the orchid museum is as small closed tropical park with flowing water and lakes.

Also a rose garden and many other things
The place is ideal for a family day, you can spend it in an open space, watch beautiful flowers, animals and a lot of green. You can have a picnic and take great gifts home. A very good option to get out of the office and have a moment for yourself =)
Orchid park with a great variety of orchids and much more- carnivorous plants, tropical rain forest, plant mazes, cacti garden, herb garden, musical fountain and atrrractions for young childen. Frinedly parrots. The main greenhouse is air-conditioned. Free parking.
We visited Park Utopia in the spring time and had a lovely visit. The orchids and other tropical and carnivorous plants were well kept and pretty. We enjoyed the talking parrots also.

Chris Smith
Astronomers have caught their best glimpse yet of a star being ripped to pieces by a supermassive black hole.
The drama unfolded in the constellation Draco, dragon in Latin, which is 2 billion light years away but nonetheless visible from the northern hemisphere.
Just like our own Milky Way galaxy, Draco has a massive black hole, weighing in at the equivalent of 3 million times the mass of our Sun, sitting at its centre.
And it was in this vicinity that Johns Hopkins scientist Suvi Gezari and her colleagues spotted, in July 2010, the celestial equivalent of stellar butchery as a star on a tight orbit around the black hole was first robbed of its outer rind of hydrogen, and then torn apart in a spectacular blaze of radiation.
Followed by the Hawaiian Pan-STARRS-1 and NASA GALEX telescopes, the bursts of radiation emitted by the event are so clearly recorded that Gezari and her co-workers have been able to perform a cosmic post mortem, piecing back together the final months of the doomed star's life.
What the data suggest is that the star was a red giant when it met its end. Red giants form when stars have all but exhausted supplies of hydrogen at their centres. Instead, the core of the star comprises mostly helium, and the heat from the fusion process causes the residual hydrogen to puff up into a massive cloud hundreds of times larger than their former selves.
In this state the Draco star approached the black hole. At a distance equivalent to about the orbit of Pluto from the Sun in our own system, the outer hydrogen coat of the star was stripped away, leaving just the helium core.
Now, roughly a third of its former size and with a quarter of its mass remaining, this stellar cinder continued its deadly approach. At a distance from the black hole of 50 million kilometres, equivalent to the orbit of Mercury from the Sun, and travelling about 32 million kilometres per hour, the huge gravitational tidal forces of the black hole tore the helium core to pieces.
Half the material was sent spinning away into space; the rest was consumed. And as it fell into the black hole about two months later, the material was heated, triggering the light show seen by Gezari and her team and reported this week in Nature.
These observations, which occur with a frequency of only about once per ten thousand years per galaxy, offer a unique insight into the physics of what lurks, black, dark and deadly, at the centres of probably the majority of galaxies...

Interesting. An important suggestion was that the star was a red giant. however for the largest black holes and more normal sized stars it is quite possible for the star to be swallowed whole without a squeak and only be disrupted by the gravity gradient after it has crossed the main event horizon Soul Surfer, Sun, 6th May 2012
