Seawater intrusion into coastal aquifers is usually modeled by using transport models that include account for the effect of variable-density on flow. Variable-density models can be validated with the Henry and Elder benchmark problems. However, when mixed convective flow is simulated under variable density conditions, it is susceptible to physical and numerical instabilities. The purpose of ...

Letters Editor London

14 April 2004
Dear Sir,
I must correct Sue Carroll's incorrect suggestion (A polite reminder… stop nannying us, 14 April) that the Health and Safety Executive 'insisted on' the floor at Todmorden Town Hall being stripped of polish because it was slippery. HSE did no such thing.
In another inaccuracy, Sue Carroll says that 'mountaineers must face signs telling them snow can be slippery'. Wrong again. There is absolutely no requirement for warning signs on mountains. This is a total and utter myth.
Sue Carroll believes these two examples amount to 'mollycoddling' by government bodies.
I am not sure the families of over 200 workers killed and 28,000 seriously injured at work last year would share her views. HSE recognises you cannot eradicate risk, but we do believe in the application of sensible controls to protect people at work.
Yours faithfully

LONDON (AP) Ś The re-election of President Barack Obama gave markets a boost Wednesday, though concerns remain over his ability to steer through a budget agreement through a divided Congress.
Obama easily clinched a majority in the electoral college, holding on to a raft of key swing states in TuesdayÆs vote Ś despite only just winning the popular vote over his rival Mitt Romney.
Though America has been spared a re-run of the protracted election of 2000, its arms of government remain divided, with the Democrats holding onto their majority in the Senate and the Republicans in control of the House of Representatives. That could still lead to a logjam in policymaking, not least over the parlous state of the countryÆs public finances.
In Europe, the FTSE 100 index of leading British shares was up 0.3 percent at 5,899 while GermanyÆs DAX rose 0.4 percent to 7,407. The CAC-40 in France was 0.6 percent higher at 3,499.
Wall Street was poised for a solid opening, with both Dow futures and the broader S&P 500 futures up 0.3 percent.
The most pressing matter facing the U.S. government is the so-called ōfiscal cliffö Ś a combination of higher taxes and government spending cuts that automatically take effect unless Congress agrees on a new budget by Jan. 1. Economists warn that a failure to reach a concrete decision will push the worldÆs largest economy back into recession.
ōThere is a sense of calm in the markets today after ObamaÆs decisive victory, but with the `fiscal cliffÆ looming ominously on the horizon investors are banking on this problem being resolved quickly,ö said Mike McCudden, head of derivatives at Interactive Investor.
Rising stocks are a sign of rising investor appetite for risk as is a fall in the dollar. By mid-morning London time, the euro was 0.2 percent higher at $1.2830 while the dollar was flat at 80.35 yen.
Though the U.S. election results are the main focus at the moment, investors will be turning their gaze towards a crucial vote in the Greek Parliament later. If lawmakers donÆt back a (euro) 13.5 billion ($17.3 billion) package of spending cuts and tax increases, then the country faces the prospect of losing access to its bailout lifeline and potentially defaulting on its mountain of debt and leaving the euro.
That toxic combination could have massive negative repercussions in financial markets, regardless of whether a bipartisan budget solution is reached in the U.S. in the coming weeks.
ōStrange to think that over 100 million votes cast in the U.S. may have less impact upon the markets over the next month or so than some 300 votes due to be cast in the Greek parliament this evening,ö said Gary Jenkins, managing director of Swordfish Research.
Earlier in Asia, JapanÆs Nikkei 225 index closed marginally lower at 8,972.89. Hong KongÆs Hang Seng added 0.7 percent to 22,099.85. South KoreaÆs Kospi gained 0.5 percent to 1,937.55.
Mainland Chinese shares edged lower, with Shanghai Composite Index slipping marginally to 2,105.73. The smaller Shenzhen Composite Index lost 0.2 percent to 851.64
Also on investorsÆ radar is ThursdayÆs opening of ChinaÆs Communist Party congress Ś the once-in-a-decade forum to name ChinaÆs top leadership. Although current Vice President Xi Jinping is almost certain to be ChinaÆs next leader, markets will be looking for hints on how the new leadership plans to tackle the nationÆs economic slowdown.
In the oil markets, a price of benchmark New York crude was down 49 cents to $88.22 per barrel in electronic trading on the New York Mercantile Exchange.

From The Architectural Review, the second part in a three-part documentary about water's relationship with architecture. As London grows ever denser and its property prices climb beyond the reach of many would-be homeowners, there has been a significant resurgence of interest in opportunities to inhabit the Thames and its associated waterways. Meanwhile a ribbon of development is creeping along the banks of the river often displacing those who lived there previously. Is the water a force that will unlock an increasingly unaffordable city or one that will fuel a trend of gentrification and displacement?

If you're thinking of picking up the Citi Platinum AAdvantage card, you might want to check the mail for a targeted offer. My little sister (who is just 18 years old) got an offer in the mail for 60,000 miles after $3,000 spent within 3 months. The $95 annual fee is waived and they enclosed an invitation number to be used during the application process. The current publicly available sign-up bonus for the Citi Platinum AAdvantage card is 50,000 miles and it's been a few years since I've seen a 75,000 mile offer for this card, so this is a solid deal.
After meeting the $3,000 spending requirement on this card, you'll end up with 63,000 AAdvantage miles. That's enough miles for two roundtrip economy class tickets to anywhere in the US (with 13,000 miles to spare). If it's premium travel you're after, you can redeem these miles for a one-way Business Class ticket to Europe or a roundtrip to Mexico. Plus, you'll get 10% of your miles back as a cardholder perk. There are lots of other possibilities, but these are just a few examples.
My sister doesn't have any credit cards, nor have any family members added her as an authorized user on their accounts. I'm surprised she was targeted for this offer and doubt she'll actually get approved. After all, she's a full time college student with a part time job and normally premium credit cards like these aren't targeted towards her demographic.
My real concern is whether I should sign her up for the card to begin with. On one hand, it will be good for her to start building her credit history, though it's always good to start off with a no-annual fee card. That way, when the $95 annual fee becomes too much, the thought of losing your oldest credit line isn't an obstacle.
There's also the concern over whether she is responsible enough to handle her own credit card. When I was her age (in fact on my 18th birthday) I signed up and was approved for an American Express Blue Cash card. I believe the limit was around $3,000 and I'm going to be honest, I didn't handle it so well in the beginning and got myself into a bit of trouble. This went on for about 5 months when I finally managed to pay the card off, but when you're young and you have a rewards credit card with a limit exceeding your spending power, you're tempted to use it when you really shouldn't.
So I'm kind of torn about signing her up for the 60,000 mile Citi Platinum AAdvantage card offer. I do need to get her a starter credit card to build credit, but I think if I sign her up for this card I'll probably just meet the spending requirement and hold onto it for her. The offer is good through December 31, 2015 so that gives me enough time to make a decision.
Anyway, if any of you responsible adults out there are looking to acquire some extra AAdvantage miles before the rumored 2016 AAdvantage devaluation, then keep an eye out in the mail for the 60,000 mile offer from the Citi Platinum AAdvantage card. If you haven't been targeted, you can always reach out to Citi and ask them to extend the offer to you. Back when Citi had a targeted 75,000 mile offer for the AAdvantage card, I remember reaching out to them and getting approve for the higher sign-up bonus. It did take a bit of effort since they initially only posted 50,000 miles and I had to convince them that they did in fact extend the higher offer over the phone. Secure message is another option that might work.
Have you been targeted for a 60,000 mile Citi Platinum AAdvantage credit card offer?

- $39 for two 90-minute beginners' knitting or crocheting classes for two (a $100 value)
- $12 for $25 worth of yarn
Yarniverse's Attic Store
The staffers at Yarniverse's Attic Store understand that it often takes more than yarn and needles to see a knitting project through to the end. With this in mind, they man a round table inside the two-story shop where they help clients master tricky patterns, inspire them to try new techniques, and fuel knitting sprees with friendly conversation until each wooly endeavor is complete. Before starting new projects, clients stock up on yarns and knitting tools or refresh their skills in a class that covers how to make socks, dog sweaters, or vintage scarves.

The University of Colorado's Sustainable Practices Program offers Colorado employees a way to gain credentials for sustainability to help meet the growing need. The program started in 2007. It has benefited almost 300 people since inception.
People who take part in the Sustainable Practices Program do not need to be CU students and enrolled in the university to take part. The program has a variety of courses that look at financing, energy and much more.
The program was recently selected by the Colorado Department of Labor to be an official place that Colorado residents can get green training for jobs.
Becase those in the program don't have to be CU students, the classes are not available for CU credit. The classes can be taken alone or as part of a track for a professional certificate.
The courses range in time. Some are just a single day. They are held on campus in Boulder and have a variety of offerings for timing.

- The revenue growth greatly exceeded the industry average of 6.5%. Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues rose by 45.1%. This growth in revenue does not appear to have trickled down to the company's bottom line, displayed by a decline in earnings per share.
- NAII has no debt to speak of therefore resulting in a debt-to-equity ratio of zero, which we consider to be a relatively favorable sign. Along with this, the company maintains a quick ratio of 3.45, which clearly demonstrates the ability to cover short-term cash needs.
- The company's current return on equity has slightly decreased from the same quarter one year prior. This implies a minor weakness in the organization. In comparison to the other companies in the Personal Products industry and the overall market, NATURAL ALTERNATIVES's return on equity is significantly below that of the industry average and is below that of the S&P 500.
- The gross profit margin for NATURAL ALTERNATIVES is rather low; currently it is at 19.30%. It has decreased from the same quarter the previous year. Along with this, the net profit margin of 3.70% trails that of the industry average.

The Framework for NHS Involvement in International Development has been developed to provide greater clarity on how NHS agencies and individuals can best maximise their potential to contribute in a sustainable and appropriate way to capacity building in developing countries. It builds on the Department of Health's 2003 International Humanitarian and Health Work Toolkit to Support Good Practice. The framework's development is the result of the commitment set out in Global Health Partnerships: The UK contribution to health in developing countries: the Government Response (March 2008), which was led by the Department of Health and the Department for International Development. The framework has been developed in collaboration with a range of individuals, organisations and professional bodies. Its preparation was led by the new Strategic Health Authority International Health Group. The framework describes current policy and practice. It is being made available as an online resource so that it can be easily revised to take account of new developments. Although the framework does focus on NHS involvement in International Development, it is equally relevant to individuals, volunteers and other partners in the wider health sector in the UK.

30 Lakes in 30 Days | Santeetlah Lake | North Carolina
With a shoreline 80 percent surrounded by National Forest, and few local residents, Santeetlah Lake in Robbinsville, North Carolina, is a pristine and primitive paddling getaway. Created in 1928 when a dam was built across the Cheoah River, valleys between the 4,000-foot mountains flooded to create a web of flatwater that fingers through the remote region. No two areas of the lake look the same, and the many nooks and crannies lend a sense of endless exploration for paddlers. It's small enough to discourage speed boating, but you will find fellow vacationers floating pontoon boats and fishing for trout and bass. Beyond the tremendous paddling options, the region offers the Santeetlah Lake Trail, 15-miles of mountainous pathways through primitive forest, open to hikers, bikers and horses. Book lakeside lodging or camp out, whichever you please.
30 Lakes in 30 Days Project:
America is riddled with countless unsung watering holes ideal for your next SUP adventure. To highlight some of our favorite freshwater paddling locales, we're profiling 30 lakes in 30 days for the entire month of July. We'll give you the lake's local rundown, outfitting options in the area and we'll even tell you where to find the best bite and beer post-paddle. It's a resource just for you and it's brought to you by Tahoe SUP.

Although it is not attainable in real life for music to return out of nowhere and to see people in gradual movement, this is mainly the gist of what happens while you fall in love upon first sight. Due to base tickets you can expertise the whole issues very smoothly otherwise it's important to buy each theme park tickets each time you want to entry. If its love go forward else simply enable the Universe to deliver the best vibrational match for you.
When you expect something to occur or while you believe you already own it, that is when the Law of Attraction will actually kick in with pace because you're already completely aligned with your need. It is solely a generator that in effect uses the distinctive properties of everlasting magnets, specifically, the attraction and repulsion attributes of magnets that create a perpetual attraction abu dhabimotion machine (generator). And she was beginning to understand that the husband possible did not entirely imply what he was saying, although he might consider that the did. Signs he's involved: Generally, whenever you recently meet a man who is fairly engaging you get feelings for him.
They had to make use of the Law of Attraction by being constructive, being stubborn, attending to their inspirations and their synchronicities (there to remind us that the Universe is attraction discountslistening to us and on our side), all whereas maintaining the vision of their want fulfilled.
Since the need for these chemical compounds for sexual attraction is changing into extra obvious, increasingly more persons are wanting to take advantage of their primal scents in order to be able to entice the other sex. Starting with Universal Studios the massive information is that they unveiled a new journey based mostly on Fox's blockbuster hit sequence, The Simpsons.

Wimbledon: Women's quarter-finals preview, Sabine Lisicki back down to business
The women's quarter-finals take centre stage at Wimbledon on Tuesday in what is now a wide-open event.
By Paul Higham Twitter: @SkySportsPaulH
Last Updated: 02/07/13 2:24pm
Sabine Lisicki may have the toughest task of the day as she has to come down from the emotional high of beating huge favourite Williams to focus on her battle with Estonian Kaia Kanepi, who ended Laura Robson's hopes.
The German will face Kanepi first up on Court One, which will be followed by young American Sloane Stephens going up against former Wimbledon finalist Marion Bartoli of France.
Over on Centre Court, Polish fourth seed Agnieszka Radwanska will face Chinese sixth seed Li Na, before 2011 Wimbledon champion Petra Kvitova, the only former winner left in the last eight, clashes with Kirsten Flipkens of Belgium.
Few gave 23-year-old Lisicki a chance of toppling Williams, but that result has blown the whole draw wide open, and the world No 24 is now full of confidence ahead of her tie with Kanepi.
"I never played her before," said Lisicki. "My coaches will do some scouting. We'll watch some tapes and get me ready for that match.
"I feel great. I really played four very, very good matches. I think I played better with each match. I get more and more confident with my strokes, as well as my game.
"I am looking forward to playing again."
With Lisicki a firm fans' favourite, Kanepi will again have the crowd largely against her, but she insisted it was not too bad when she knocked out Robson in front of a home crowd desperate for the Briton to get through.
"I think the crowd wasn't that bad actually," she said. "When she won a point it was a bit louder than normal but they didn't clap when I double-faulted or anything. I think it was really good.
"My serve and baseline game were good and I guess I will have to hit hard in my next match, that's always important on grass."
The winner of Lisicki v Kanepi will face the tougher semi-final with the two top seeds left in the draw awaiting in the last four - Radwanska or Li.
Czech star Kvitova will fancy her chances of returning to the final as the top seed in her half of the draw, but Flipkens proved she can play on grass after beating Flavia Pennetta in the fourth round.
The winner will play either Bartoli or Stephens - the 20-year-old American tipped by Williams as her successor in the years to come.
"That's very nice of her," Stephens said. "I don't know. I have a couple more matches to go till that happens.
"I am just going to go out and play my hardest and see what I can do."

Our week at Playa Loma Bonita was wonderful! We spent the days lounging by the pool, strolling on the beach, doing yoga, eating, reading, playing, fishing, surfing, napping, and hanging out with friends and family! What a beautiful vacation retreat that comfortably slept our 18 people. We had Karina cook dinners for us and we have the home stocked with food upon our arrival which was such a treat!! We walked down the beach to enjoy the lil restaurants on the beach and swim with the locals. We went to Petatlan town to see the shopping and church and the tortillaria! ! We felt like at home with our own watch dog "Monster" who was so sweet! The locals are so friendly and the fishermen loved to show off their daily catch! We brought some school supplies and met a few of the students also. The villas were perfect for spending time together and we even had 18 around the giant dining table in the awesome open-air kitchen! Days by the pool under the umbrella and evenings on the grass under the stars! wow! Everyone had a fantastic time and we will return again next year :)
This was our family's first vacation to Mexico, and it was muy bueno!
Liz and Ron's property sits oceanfront on a remote beach with stunning views. The main villa is incredibly spacious, with a gorgeous pool overlooking the beach below. This is everything you would get at a 5-star hotel!
What truly makes Loma so special are the staff: We loved everyone who helped make our stay so special. We found the perfect babysitters for our young son, our surf guide was incredibly knowledgable, the chefs cooked our food with love, the cleaning woman did a great job, and the foreman and driver were very patient and kind. Everything we could have asked for, we got.
We were there for my 40th birthday, and Liz even made sure we got a special dinner and cake for me that day!
We are so happy to have found this gem in Mexico. Muchos gracias, amigos!
Staying at Playa Loma Bonita is an opportunity to unplug from craziness of life and reconnect with a the beauty of nature, friends, and family. I have stayed in all of the accommodations at Playa Loma several times with my husband, friends, and two young children. I have even hosted a yoga retreat here.
Every time I go I want to stay and once I leave I can't wait to come back .
Miles of stunning beach and only occasional sightings of other people.
Fabulous pools overlooking the ocean.
Gorgeous accommodations mixed with rugged grounds (dirt roads and rolling mountains)
The ability to have massage, horses, food, fishing guides, surf lessons, and babysitting all brought right to you at such a fair price you feel (moderately) guilty.
Playa Loma is a place where you can define exactly what kind of experience you want to have while surrounded by sun, ocean, solitude, and an amazing staff that will support you in your vision....
*Packing more than a bathing suit/cover and sun protections for kids always seems like overpacking...
I am not sure there are words to describe our week at Playa Loma Bonita but I will try. My husband and I, together with four other couples, all long- time friends and frequent travel companions, arrived at Loma Bonita for our last week of our travels in Mexico. We reached paradise. As we settled in the beauty and peace of the place worked its magic. It was the simple pleasures of life that filled our days. Long walks on the beach, meeting only the occasional fisherman. Having the joy of watching baby sea turtles hatch and make their way to the ocean. Watching the whales breaching in the ocean. Beautiful sunrises and sunsets. The sound of the ocean to put you to sleep at night and wake you in the morning.
We rented the two villas and two bungalows so had plenty of places to spend individual time or time together as a big group. We arranged some of our meals with Karina and Thomasa from the restaurant down the beach and what meals they were! The tres leches birthday cakes were an outstanding end to two great birthday meals. We gathered around the large table in the small villa nightly. We all had the best massages ever next to the trickling fountain in the back patio of the large villa. Yoga under the beautiful palapa down by the ocean took a new meaning of mind, body, spirit. Think, Shavasana with the sound of the ocean waves and the feel of ocean breeze.
At all times we were in the very special care of Jesus, Rita and team. Whether we needed to book massages, or arrange a trip to Patatlan for groceries, or get the yoga instructor, Jesus was there for us. The place was kept beautifully and we were left to enjoy and relax. And of course, what can I say about Liz. During our planning stage she answered every question asked of her, and continued to help make sure our stay was the experience of a lifetime while we were on site – in other words she helped create magic.
We had arrived with great plans to go to the archeological ruins, into Patatlan, and to spend a day in Zihua. In the end we spent a morning in Patatlan to get some supplies as well as visit the church,(which was well worth it), and gold market. We did a few hours in Zihua on our way to the airport as we were leaving and though enjoyable, we were glad we didn't take time away from our "Shangri-la" during our stay. If you want a place to gather as family and friends and reconnect at a deeper level, rest and recharge this is the place.
I went with my family ( my parter, my parents, siblings, brother and sister in law) and we shared a wonderful time at Loma Bonita. A beautiful and super comfortable place to enjoy nature, to rest, to have fun. The food was delicious. We are definitely planing to live this Loma Bonita experience soon again!
We had a wonderful stay in this house!! The house and palapas have excellent taste, the beach is completelly private and the ocean is clear and warm. Karina, the cook, is excellent! Ideal place to get away from it all, rest, read in hamocks, play ping pong, sunbathe, eat delicous seafood, watch beautiful sunsets...
Our dogs could run free and happy.
Very recommended!

This may be a silly question, but I'm new to Cisco.
I recently had a series of power failures that where resolved as an electrical fault in our building.
Subsequent to this my Uc520 router has lost it's Vlans.
I have set everything up but now get an error that my Ip phones are not in a voice network when I am in topology view in Cisco SBCA.
I cannot add them to a voice network here because they use a logout profile.
I have assumed that if I setup smart ports that these will resolve the problem but users are now faceing horrible voice quality at present.
What command can I use to assign this in command line when I log on to the router? i.e. assign a vlan to an Ip phone?
5 Replies
Feb 2, 2011 at 6:33 UTC
i know for the 3500 series switches the command is switchport voice vlan #
this command must be in interface configuration mode.
Feb 9, 2011 at 10:50 UTC
I've setup vlans in cisco configuration assistant but will try to try the
The above commands to verify the vlans have now been created.
Feb 9, 2011 at 4:01 UTC
To verify that the vlans are on the switch use sh vlans from user or privilege mode
Feb 14, 2011 at 1:30 UTC
All vlans are properly applied and phones have the voice vlan ip. What is strange is that I get the static noise on the phones in times of high traffic. Cisco config assistant says the phones are not in voice vlan. I also get undersize frame errors between my switches?
Feb 27, 2011 at 4:11 UTC
Seems this error has been related to my Pri connection that has recently failed totally due to a lightning strike.
I have also noticed that a faulty handset to be one of the reasons that one user complained
Will confirm if this situation still exists after I replace the pri boxes

Form not going to PayPal.Asked by RainbowChorale on December 13, 2016 at 06:11 PM
I just created a new form. It works OK, but when I press the submit button, it freezes at "please wait" and does not go anywhere. I used the PayPal credentials I always use for this client. It happens the same in preview mode and online.
I redid the whole payment section to see if that would work. It didn't, plus now it is not updating when I apply changes to the payment widget.
Before I check with my client about the PayPal account. Can you check and see if the problem is on your end? Thank you.

@MJP this sucks. Isn't it because of AMD drivers ?
@migi: mentioned them in my first post. amd 5950 card, win7, latest amd catalyst 13.9 drivers gpu should be capable as described in d3d documentation
sepul posted a topic in Graphics and GPU ProgrammingHi, I need to use some limited functionality of d3d11.1 under win7, but so far I had no luck I've installed the win7 platform update and win8 sdk. Here's a snippet that I acquire d3d11.1 device : dxhr = D3D11CreateDevice(adapter, D3D_DRIVER_TYPE_UNKNOWN, NULL, dev_flags, NULL, 0, D3D11_SDK_VERSION, &dev, &ft_level, &ctx); ID3D11Device1* dev1; dxhr = dev->QueryInterface(__uuidof(ID3D11Device1), (void**)&dev1); dev->Release() D3D_FEATURE_LEVEL ft_level = dev1->GetFeatureLevel() ... The d3d11.1 objects are valid and working, but I can't use any d3d11.1 specific feature. The structure returned by CheckFeatureLevel(D3D11_FEATURE_D3D11_OPTIONS) is all FALSE and I can't run any d3d11.1 APIs without error (or d3d-debug complains) For example my application is something like glMapBufferRange and glBindBufferRange on DX. (which existed since GL3), so I guess it's just a API/driver issue and doesn't rely on d3d11.1 hardware requirements. But the support in the D3D11_FEATURE_D3D11_OPTIONS is not there and calling VSSetConstantBuffers1 leads to d3d complain "This current driver does not support constant buffer offsets" In the d3d document for VSSetConstantBuffers it says: "This feature is always available on new drivers for feature level 10 and higher" So, Am I missing something in the API ? or it's just lazy drivers from AMD ? (I'm using latest Catalyst 13.9 drivers on 5750 card)
sepul posted a topic in Your AnnouncementspymdWiki: Document generation tool from markdown files Tried to find a good solution to generate/publish wiki from offline markdown files, didn't find anything useful so I've created this tool for this purpose You just write markdown documents, run this program on the root directory of documentation files (.md), pick a theme, and it will generate html files out of them. Optionally you can specify an ftp server, the generated files will be uploaded to the ftp automatically. Here's some features: Recursive directory processing of .md files Preserves links and images Themes with JSON config files Automatic Table of contents (TOC) generation Lightweight command line multi-platform program (written in python) For more info about usage visit project page, windows binaries are also available in Downloads section for those who don't want to bother with python. I've developed this for my other open-source project wiki, but here's a simple test that is generated with this program: http://hmrengine.com/tmp/main.html
sepul posted a topic in Graphics and GPU ProgrammingI'm rather a GL newbie, trying to port my d3d code to GL, but so far my experiment was far from pleasant.. My new problem is accessing depth (internal format) texture array in the shader and writing it to some output. My hardware is GL4.2 (AMD 5750) And here is the screenshot of the whole thing in PerfStudio frame debugger: As you can see, in the fragment shader, FS[0] (the only texture binded) is is GL_DEPTH_COMPONENT binded to sampler2DArray, I just fetch the first array slice and put it in first RT (RT[0]) but the result is always zero. I even tried fetching texture with texelFetch and the result is the same. I also included the shot of the source texture array info. the shots are pretty self explanatory. What am I doing wrong here ? thx
sepul posted a topic in Your Announcements(pasted from my devblog) I'm working on a new hobby project called dark-hammer engine, which is essentially derived from my previous project, hmrengine (vapor-ware!). It is written in C language (C99) and the source is also public. Using BSD license. Currently the source is at early stage – version 0.1.0 – but it is multi-platform, working in both linux/windows OSes and both OpenGL3.0+ and DirectX11 APIs. Most of the engine code and algorithms will be derived from hmrengine project. Source is hosted on bitbucket.org with mercurial version control system. Hopefully, after some time it will attract developers, so here is some useful links for developers interested in the project, will be glad if anybody wants to join/or just check it out: Forums – [url="http://www.hmrengine.com/forums/"]http://www.hmrengine.com/forums/[/url] Wiki – [url="https://bitbucket.org/sepul/dark-hammer/wiki/Home"]https://bitbucket.or...ammer/wiki/Home[/url] Source – [url="https://bitbucket.org/sepul/dark-hammer/src"]https://bitbucket.or...dark-hammer/src[/url] Binary samples – [url="https://bitbucket.org/sepul/dark-hammer/downloads"]https://bitbucket.or...ammer/downloads[/url] Project home – [url="https://bitbucket.org/sepul/dark-hammer/"]https://bitbucket.or...ul/dark-hammer/[/url] Developer blog – [url="http://www.hmrengine.com/blog/"]http://www.hmrengine.com/blog/[/url]
sepul posted a topic in Graphics and GPU ProgrammingI have implemented bilateral upsample but I'm skeptical of it, because I couldn't understand it's concept especially where they describe the sampling part in the papers For each pixel I get four samples of normal and four samples of depth from 1/2 buffer, and one sample of normal and depth from 1/1 texture, also four samples of color from 1/2 buffer to multiply by weights and calculate the final color. My sampling kernel (for sampling 1/2 buffer) looks like this : [code] static const float2 kernel[4] = { float2(-0.5f, -0.5f), // 0 float2(0.5, -0.5f), // 1 float2(-0.5f, 0.5f), // 2 float2(0.5f, 0.5f), // 3 }; [/code] But in mixed resolution rendering paper, it described it a little bit different and used billinear weights and seems like he does four samples for 1/1 buffer which I couldn't understand. could someone make this more clear for me please ? thanks
sepul posted a topic in Graphics and GPU ProgrammingI've just started learning ComputeShader and testing some samples, so I'm pretty new with it. but when testing DirectX SDK's own HDRToneMappingCS11 sample on my ATI 5750 hardware I have noticed that the CS performance is poor compared to PixelShader. Runninng in fullscreen mode, simple tonemapping isn't much different from pixelshader in terms of performance, but when I turn "fullscreen blur" on, CS performance is 180fps and PixelShader is 300fps. Isn't computeshader supposed to sample less from texture and save more fillrate thus gain much better performance ? or there is something wrong with the implementation ?
sepul replied to sepul's topic in AngelCodethanks, I'll do the workaround . however, do you consider adding this feature for the next release ?
sepul posted a topic in AngelCodeI'm getting exceptions in my SSE code, where the script is trying to do something with Vector3 (which is supposed to be 16-byte aligned) here is an expample : [code] __declspec(align(16)) Vec3 ... [/code] in angelcode, vec3 is binded with (asOBJ_VALUE | asOBJ_APP_CLASS_CDAK) flags [code] engine->RegisterObjectType( "vec3", sizeof(Vec3), asOBJ_VALUE | asOBJ_APP_CLASS_CDAK ); [/code] later on, I get exceptions with my math operations that use SSE (xmm loads) does angelcode support aligned allocation from it's stack ?
Methods described by [b]HappyCoder[/b] and [b]David Eberly[/b] as well as the method I described in my previous post (slower), worked and gave identical results thanks @Postie: no I couldn't get that to work, I used barycentric coordinates to calculate circum circle of three points, and chose different set of points, but none of them gave minimum sphere of the frustum
@Mussi: I solved them using Maple, you should give it a try, nice app @Owl: I have tried checking miniball algorithm out, Dave Eberly also has an implementation in his website, which is very complicated and as long as frustum has 8 verts and is symmetric I don't think I need to implement that. @Dave, @HappyCoder thanks guys, as long as I got HappyCoder's method more clearly, I'll try to implement that first and check the results another method I'm currently using is that, I use barycentric minimum bounding spheres method (described [url="http://realtimecollisiondetection.net/blog/?p=20"]here[/url]) for two tetrahedrons inside of the frustum. if indices 0~3 is vertices of the frustum's near plane, and 4~7 for far plane, I calculate one sphere for 0-2-5-7, and one for 1-3-4-6 (opposite tetrahedrons) , and merge two spheres. I think get acceptable results from this, but it's still pretty big especially for frustums with high aspect ratio (fov is high and (far-near) is small), although I don't think I can get small bounding spheres for those, because of the nature of the shape.
@Waterlimon: yes I know that, that will do the work, but as long as I'm using this for shadow mapping, I really need the minimum sphere. @ Postie: ok, I'll try that and keep you posted, ...
sepul posted a topic in Math and PhysicsI'm trying to find minimum bounding sphere for a frustum and haven't succeeded so far. the method I use is very simple, assuming frustum is symmetric , the center of the sphere should be on the line between two centers of frustum planes (shown in the image) so we have : 1) Dot(P - A, P - A) = Dot(P - B, P - B) 2) P = S + t*N [img]http://www.hmrengine.com/img/min-sphere.gif[/img] by putting P into the equation (1), I could solve t and find sphere center but I can't get corrent results and two distances are never the same after solving it can someone tell we where I'm doing wrong ? or how can I compute the minimum sphere of the frustum ? here is the code : [code] // 0~3 points of 'frustPts' = nearPlane // 4~7 points of 'frustPts' = farPlane void CSM::CalcMinSphere( const math::Vector3f frustPts[8], math::Sphere* sphere ) { math::Vector3f S = (frustPts[0] + frustPts[2]) * 0.5f; // center pt - near plane math::Vector3f S2 = (frustPts[4] + frustPts[6]) * 0.5f; // far pt - near plane math::Vector3f N = S2 - S; math::Vec3Normalize(N, &N); math::Vector3f A = frustPts[0]; math::Vector3f B = frustPts[4]; fl32 d = 2.0f*(math::Vec3Dot(N, A) - math::Vec3Dot(N, B)); fl32 t = ( math::Vec3Dot(A, A) - math::Vec3Dot(B, B) - 2.0f*S.x*(A.x+B.x) - 2.0f*S.y*(A.y+B.y) - 2.0f*S.z*(A.z+B.z) ) / d; math::Vector3f center = S + N*t; fl32 radius = math::Vec3Length( B - center ); fl32 d1 = Vec3Dot( center - A, center - A ); fl32 d2 = Vec3Dot( center - B, center - B ); _ASSERT( Fl32Equal(d1, d2) ); // asset failure !!! ( + we have invalid bounding sphere) sphere->Set(center.x, center.y, center.z, radius); } [/code]
sepul replied to sepul's topic in AngelCodeIt wasn't a bug in AngelScript, actually it was my fault , cuz I have modified ScriptArray.cpp somewhere and made it do this. and now it's fixed my bad, sorry

Get the legal help you need at a fixed price. No hidden fees or long-term commitment.
A written will lets you decide what happens to your money and property after you die, while a living will lets you decide whether or not you wish to be placed on a medical life support system if you become disabled or incapacitated. Wills attorneys and living wills attorneys know all of the language that must be included in your will documents so that things happen the way you want. Because it's impossible for anyone to explain a will after his or her death, it is very important that the will meets all legal requirements. A wills attorney will ensure it does.

GOP: Republicans need to stop rationalizing
It is interesting to read how some Republicans keep rationalizing their loss this election. "It was Romney's fault" (although my respect for him grew in the debates), "It was Obama's slanderous attacks," "It was the media," etc. etc.
They fail to recognize that a majority of Americans do not want a party in power that denigrates women, which is not willing to embrace an increasingly multicultural society, which is riddled with racism, which firmly set its policies to deny Barack Obama a second term, which kept questioning our president's birth certificate, which does not want to look at the Bush …

text: Shares of Amedisys ( AMED) were among the worst-performing health-related stocks Thursday, tumbling 24% after the home-health nursing company posted fourth-quarter earnings that were well below forecasts and announced the resignation of its chief financial officer. The company earned $7.3 million, or 45 cents a share, on service revenue of $118.9 million. Analysts surveyed by Thomson First Call expected earnings of 55 cents a share on revenue of $117.9 million. During the year-earlier period, the company earned $6.1 million, or 39 cents a share, on sales of $64.4 million. Amedisys blamed the weak fourth-quarter earnings on the "transitional cost and delayed timeline expectations for performance improvement from the recent acquisitions of Housecall and Spectracare, the as yet unrealized synergies from the reduction in Housecall's corporate office expenses and the residual impact of last summer's hurricanes." For 2006, Amedisys continues to predict earnings of $2.33 to $2.43 a share, with sales of $510 million. Analysts project earnings of $2.42 a share on sales of $516 million. Amedisys said CFO Gregory Browne resigned to pursue other opportunities. The company has hired a search firm to aid it in finding a successor. Browne, meanwhile, will continue to serve as CFO until a replacement is found and transitioned, the company said. Shares were trading down $9.80 to $30.80. GTC Biotherapeutics ( GTCB) shares plunged 39% after the biopharmaceutical company said an advisory committee of the European Medicines Agency plans to issue a negative opinion related to the company's application for ATryn, a recombinant form of human antithrombin. "On the basis of recent conversations, GTC understands that the CHMP, after excluding data from pregnant patients, determined that an insufficient number of surgical patients were enrolled to support approval," the company said in a statement. GTC said it plans to use the appeals process to ask the agency to re-examine the application. Shares were trading down 87 cents to $1.38. Nearly 21 million shares have changed hands, compared with an average daily volume of just 764,219 shares.

Author | Source: The Economic Times | Monday, Aug 28,2006 8:53 AM
With festival time approaching, the season of big bang consumer promotions is about to dawn in all earnest. But smart marketers are realising the futility of wasting marketing monies on me-too promotional activities. Though the promotional spend this year promises to break all previous records, expect sharper targeting, both in terms of products being peddled and specific consumer groups.
"Marketers are looking at ways to create differentiation (in their festive promotions) apart from simply outshouting their competition," says Srikant Sastri, MD of Solutions Integrated, a marketing services company. Marketers such as Gillette, Dabur and HP have realised that promotions have stopped influencing consumers' brand choice, Mr Sastri said.
Free, assured gifts or scratch-card promotions are mere hygiene factors now, a necessary marketing condition to push festival-led sales. Consumers' expect every brand to offer a promotional candy, and lazy, discount-led marketers have themselves to blame.
"Consumers don't choose a brand because of a gift, rather after buying the product they ask for gift, and it has to be given," says Mirc Electronics marketing head Vivek Sharma. With Rs 2,000 crore of television advertising, riding this festive season, marketers are looking at getting the bang from their ad buck.
Many marketers this year will stay clear from vanilla promotions and contests mania. "We will keep our two important launches during the season. It is an auspicious time for buying and gifting and we want to give the consumer better value through a breakthrough product," says Motorola marketing head Lloyd Mathais.
Not to say that Motorola will not indulge in any promotions, but that it will be primarily directed towards the new launches, not a secular offer across its product line.
In fact, new launch-based promotions look like the promotional trend around Diwali-Onam this year. "The gifting ritual around festival time is taking on new hues. Earlier gifting was emotional - hence sweets & dry fruits.
Now it's turning into an opportunity to make a statement about the giver," says Titan Industries business head Ajoy Chawla. Titan has lined up a slew of launches that it will be supporting through promotions across its three sub-brands -Raga, Edge and Nebula.
"This year our (promotional) focus will be on shopping malls. We will, however, continue to launch new seasonal merchandise that will be festive occasion apparel," says Madura Garments president Hemchandra Javeri.

Nevada Senator Harry Reid issued the following statement after Republicans voted to block the Small Business Jobs and Tax Relief Act.
"The legislation Republicans blocked was a common-sense proposal that provided small businesses with two tax cuts designed to create jobs. Under our proposal, small businesses would have received a 10 percent tax cut on the amount by which they increase their payrolls this calendar year. And to help them expand, small businesses would have been allowed to write off 100 percent of the cost of any major equipment or software they purchase.
"Unfortunately, Republicans played their usual games of obstruction and opposition. There was simply no reason to oppose this bill on the merits, so Republicans manufactured reasons to kill it out of thin air. Republicans claimed they wanted amendment votes, but refused to take "yes' for an answer when I offered them votes on those very amendments.
"Senator McConnell made it clear that his "single most important' goal is defeating President Obama. It's sad that the middle class has to suffer for Republicans to achieve their political aims."
