VB: Cal Knocks Out North Carolina With 3-0 First Round Win
Posted December 6, 2013
Madison, Wis. — California eliminated North Carolina from the 2013 NCAA Volleyball tournament with a 3-0 (20-25, 18-25, 20-25) win on Friday at the University of Wisconsin's Field House.
Making their 15th tournament appearance, this was the Tar Heels' third-straight first round match with the Bears, who will advance to Saturday's second round to face the winner of the Wisconsin-Milwaukee match.
"It was a disappointing finish to a great year," head coach Joe Sagula said. "We just did not play close to our level, while Cal played great and very efficiently. We had opportunities and just couldn't finish like we did earlier in the season. It's very disappointing to finish like this, but we'll grow from this and move forward."
Paige Neuenfeldt finished the night with a team-high 13 kills, hitting .667 with just one error. Leigh Andrew tallied nine kills with a block and nine digs, and Hayley McCorkle and Kayla Berringercombined for 14 kills.
Carolina hit a decent .255 team attack but could not prevail with Cal's 11 team blocks and .441 hitting, led by Michelle Neumayr' 11 kills and three digs and Lara Vukasovic's 10 kills and six blocks.
Neuenfeldt tallied six kills in the opening frame, but the Bears posted six blocks with a .441 hitting percentage to stop the Tar Heels and take the set 25-20. Tied at 15-15, Carolina had a 3-1 run to take over the lead, but Cal answered with four straight and held on for the remainder of the set.Hayley McCorkle had three kills with a block, and Leigh Andrew added another three kills.
The Bears claimed the second with a 25-18 score behind a stellar .600 team attack, led by five kills from Christina Higgins. Andrew had five kills and two digs for UNC, and Neuenfeldt added another four kills, but a second-straight frame with seven errors didn't help the Tar Heels.
Berringer came on strong for Carolina in the third set, posting four kills along with McPherson's two kills and two blocks, but Cal held on for the 25-20 win to claim the sweep. Adrienne Gehan posted four kills and Vukasovic had two kills and two blocks to help the Bears, who once again took advantage of seven Carolina errors.
"I really enjoyed coaching this team this year," Sagula said. "This has been a great group of young ladies. This is an unfortunate way to lose this match. This team has done some great things throughout the year. Unfortunately, we didn't finish the way we wanted to and we'll hopefully learn from this and become better in the future."
North Carolina defeated Cal in the opening rounds of the 2011 (3-2) and 2012 (3-1) tournaments. The Bears took a 3-0 second round win over Carolina in 2010.
North Carolina finished a record-breaking season with a 27-5 overall mark and 16-4 in ACC play, which was good for a third place conference finish. UNC started out the 2013 campaign with a 15-0 record for the best season start in program history, securing its 13th 20+ win season in the past 17 years.
En route to securing the most wins in a season since the 2002 squad finished 32-4, Sagula earned his 700th career victory with an exciting 3-2 win over Maryland. The Tar Heels were ranked in the top 25 for each of the weekly AVCA Coaches Polls, peaking at No. 10 for the program's highest-ever ranking and finishing the regular season in the No. 15 spot.

Election 2010: Heading for the finish line
For California, this election is more than just for state offices, the entire nation is looking at California for leadership and we cannot disappoint them
By Yussuf J. Simmonds
Managing Editor
It is the last weekend before the most important election of the 21st century and today is the final approach to election day. According to the Los Angeles Sentinel, it's VOTE DEMOCRAT or LOSE … lose the gains that the state and indeed the country has made during the last century. Though President Barack Obama is not on the ballot, his agenda most certainly is – his healthcare and financial reforms, and most of his progressive agenda to move the country forward. Support for the President hinges on a winning Democrat team in California including D.A. Kamala Harris for Attorney, A.G. Jerry Brown for Governor, Sen. Barbara Boxer for U. S. Senate and the Democratic slate. Leading the charge for the Democrats Saturday morning was Assemblyman Mike Davis, L.A. City Council president, Eric Garcetti, City Councilwoman Jan Perry, Pastor and Mrs. John Hunter, actor/activist Mike Farrell, Councilman (ret.) Nate Holden, ACLU attorney Stephen F. Rohde and a host of commited Democratic supporters.
After being introduced, Garcetti fired up a crowd of supporters saying, "We're here because we have an election to win. We say 'No' to Proposition 23; Karl Rove has shell organizations in D.C. behind this and, like those in Texas say, we are saying, 'Don't mess with California .. keep your money and stay out of California politics.' We want a good environment and good jobs … we want Kamala Harris and Barbara Boxer. Harris is smart on crime and Boxer will deliver for California." He further emphasized, "Cooley, the only Republican, if allowed to win, would be a wedge for the next four years."
Farrell followed, "I am offended by the elite who wants to buy this state. It is incredibly cynical … putting their support behind ignorance, fear and racism. Kamala Harris is not just tough on crime, she's smart on crime. So vote for Kamala Harris and Barbara Boxer, and the people on the Democratic ticket. Later on, Farrell added, "It is urgently important that we defeat big money interest, they're playing into fear and bias. When you hear the President speaking and a member of the House of Representatives shouts out on the floor, 'you lie,' know that it's because a Black man is president and the same bias is directed toward a Black woman who wants to be attorney general (of California)."
Then Jim Dear, Mayor of Carson, said, "We must send a message to the Republican Party that they can't win when Democrats unite. When Kamala Harris wins, all the Democrats win … California will win."
Perry then chimed in, "We are among friends and the best way to tell the other folks is to be like jet fuel and light a fire, and tell them (Karl Rove and company) to stay home and keep their money. We must go the polls and vote straight for the Democratic ticket."
Pastor Hunter lent a spiritual touch to the event and said, "The soul of the country is at stake. We have a moral and a financial deficit. My wife and I are encouraged to get the word out to others, and we are looking for leaders who are just."
Retired city councilman, Nate Holden, was called from among the audience to stirred up the crowd as he has been known to do in the past. He stated, "Before coming here, I spoke to my son (Pasadena city councilman Chris Holden) who reminded me that the more things change, the more they remain the same. Whenever there is a person of color in office, they do all they can to bring him down. The President of the United States is doing a great job. They are ganging up on Ms. Harris … she's smart. But we know the situation … we have to fight back. Every Democrat on the ticket should be supported."
One common thread with all the speakers – Rohde, Mrs. Hunter, Leon Jenkins of the local NAACP, and Bobbie Anderson of the Democratic Club – was the support for Kamala Harris and the Democrat ticket, and the urgency of getting out to vote, and convincing others to do the same.
Assemblyman Davis closed out the rally with emphatic support of the President's work and how his historic election two years ago was not because "he is Black" but in spite of the fact that he is Black. Furthermore, Davis, cite statistics thus: "seven percent of the state (of California) is Black, yet they make up 28 percent of the prison population; and that's the back end. We need Kamala Harris to be attorney general on the front end."
According to the weekend field poll, Harris is now six points ahead of Cooley, in addition, she has been endorsed by the California's top elected officials including Sen. Dianne Feinstein, Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Congresswoman Barbara Lee; the San Francisco Chronicle, the Oakland Tribune, the Black Voice News, the Los Angeles Sentinel and the L.A. New Watts Times. Also despite the deceptive ads placed by her opponent, Harris has been endorsed by San Francisco Police Chief George Gascon; Sacramento Police Chief Arturo Venegas, Jr. (Ret.); East Palo Alto Chief Ron Davis; and former LAPD chief, William "Bill" Bratton, who is one of the most respected law enforcement officials in the nation.

The Holiday Marathon has become iconic among locally produced television programs. I am delighted that it has found its new home on WANE-TV, long known for being a leader in local television production, Shine said.
Shine's holiday movie marathon did not air in 2012 when Indiana News Center pulled it from its lineup. Shine quickly had to notify guest hosts, which included the mayor, governor, local DJs and other media personalities, of the cancellation.
Shine also had scheduled the programming for the 2012 marathon — Christmas episodes of classic TV shows, such as "Ozzie & Harriett" and "Jack Benny."
Since the marathon will air on Antenna TV, these classic holiday episodes are a perfect fit for the channel that also airs vintage TV shows on its Antenna TV, Alan Riebe, WANE-TV vice president and general manager, said.
"This year, the blend of holiday programming from Antenna TV and additional seasonal movies and holiday specials will make for a terrific holiday celebration for northeast Indiana viewers, a warm Christmas feeling for the whole family," Riebe said.
Guest hosts also will continue to share their holiday stories, and include local radio show hosts, Gov. Mike Pence, U.S. Rep. Marlin Stutzman, Mayor Tom Henry, unique animals from the Fort Wayne Children's Zoo and Santa and Mrs. Claus, Shine said.
The marathon originally aired on WFFT, which Shine — an attorney and Allen County Republican chairman — had joined in 1981 as a news broadcaster.
The marathon continued on WFFT until the mid-1990s when the station became Fox. It had been off the air for a couple of years when WANE-TV approached Shine to restart the marathon on its UPN channel, which aired the marathon a couple of years until UPN went defunct. INC then picked up the program and aired it until 2011.
Antenna TV also is available on Comcast Channel 250, Frontier Cable Channel 463 and Mediacom Cable Channel 106.
Shine also announced WANE-TV will become the television media sponsor for "Christmas on Broadway," a holiday tradition that Shine and his law partner, Tom Hardin, started in 2005 to celebrate Christmas in the neighborhoods that border the Broadway Plaza, which also includes the law office of Shine & Hardin.
WANE-TV will air live coverage of the arrival of the 40-foot spruce during its 6 a.m. Nov. 15 morning news program, as well as the lighting of the tree, wrapped in more than 28,000 lights, during the 6 p.m. Nov. 22 newscast.
"We want to be Fort Wayne's home for the holidays and 'Christmas on Broadway' and the holiday marathon are great ways to enjoy the Christmas season," Riebe said.
"Nothing brings a community together like the holidays, and I am pleased that WANE-TV is able to support this tradition to allow it to flourish during what will be the ninth consecutive year of celebrating the holidays in the neighborhood," Shine said.

Simsbury first selectman to seek anti-diversion legislation, as Farmington River future uncertain
Published 12:00 am, Saturday, December 29, 2012
SIMBURY >> John Hampton, Simsbury Deputy First Selectman and newly-elected 16th district state representative, said he may seek legislation to make it harder to divert water from the Farmington River. Hampton's pursuit of anti-diversion legislation comes in the wake of a bid by the Metropolitan District Commission to divert water from the Farmington River to supply water to the University of Connecticut.
"I will be submitting my own letter," Hampton said Dec. 21 at town hall. "I am concerned about a lack of transparency in the process, and am concerned about the environmental impact. And, I am going to see what I can do legislatively to make it harder for UConn to take our water."
In early December, First Selectman Mary Glassman sent a letter on behalf of the town to the university, citing displeasure that the town had not received direct notification, and over the lack of a public hearing in the area of the Farmington Valley towns most affected. Up to 1.93 million gallons of water daily could be diverted to the Mansfield area and UConn. At that point public comment on the matter was slated to close on Dec. 21. It was subsequently extended to Jan. 4, 2013.
Hampton also spoke of what he described as a "gag order," which, in exchange for a promise of limited use of the Farmington River by the MDC, was agreed to by the Farmington River Watershed Association. The order bars the association, well-known as a vocal activist for the river, from speaking out against a plan by the MDC to build a 20-mile pipeline to bring millions of gallons of needed water to UConn's Storrs campus.
"The gag order was signed in 1998," said Hampton.
Nonetheless, Hampton said others are able to speak up in opposition to the plan. And, Hampton said he plans to meet with various groups.
The MDC supplies its eight member towns with water, in addition to two other metro district suburbs. They include Bloomfield, East Hartford, Hartford, Newington, Rocky Hill, Windsor, West Hartford and Wethersfield.
For its part, UConn is said to be looking for a solution to a water shortage issue is has experienced in the past and a need to generate more millions of gallons of water a day to the main campus of the state's flagship university.

Orland >> The city of Orland is small in population, but it had a big impact in response to a deadly crash that occurred in the community.
Since Thursday's accident on Interstate 5 that killed 10 people, there has been an outpouring of support from the community of Orland and Glenn County, Glenn County Sheriff Larry Jones said. Many vendors donated enough food to feed 500 and people dropped off "tremendous" amounts of clothes and blankets.
Several residents brought remembrance candles and lit them as they watched emergency personnel from a distance, he said.
"I saw people praying as we removed the deceased from the vehicles," Jones said.
Glenn County Undersheriff Rich Warren said there's been a lack of mention of how small the community of Glenn County really is, and about the efforts of the Orland Volunteer Fire Department. They responded in large numbers and the transportation of all victims was coordinated through the all-volunteer department, he said.
"Chief (Jeff) Gomes and his team did an amazing job. I would put the job that they did up against any paid fire department," he said.
The Fire Department's quick response and expertise prevented the deaths of more people after the horrific crash, Warren said.
Additionally, members from agencies across the county, including volunteers from Glenn County Search and Rescue, the Glenn County Sheriff's Posse and Orland Volunteers in Police Service responded when called upon and rose to the occasion, the sheriff said.
People who were on the west side of I-5 around the crash site also had a quick response. The public immediately came to the triage area and offered assistance to the firefighters, Jones said.
"Orland and Glenn County is a very tight-knit community and they've come together in a tremendous fashion of outpouring and outreach to people they have no idea who they are, where they came from, but they're willing to help," he said.

In computer programming jargon, a heisenbug is a software bug that seems to disappear or alter its behavior when one attempts to study it.[1] The term is a pun on the name of Werner Heisenberg, the physicist who first asserted the observer effect of quantum mechanics, which states that the act of observing a system inevitably alters its state. In electronics the traditional term is probe effect, where attaching a test probe to a device changes its behavior.
Similar terms, such as bohrbug, mandelbug,[2][3][4] hindenbug, and schrödinbug[5][6] (see the section on related terms) have been occasionally proposed for other kinds of unusual software bugs, sometimes in jest;[7][8] however, unlike the term heisenbug, they are not widely known or used.[9][original research?]
Heisenbugs occur because common attempts to debug a program, such as inserting output statements or running it in a debugger, usually modify the code, changing the memory addresses of variables and the timing of its execution.
One common example of a heisenbug is a bug that appears when the program is compiled with an optimizing compiler, but not when the same program is compiled without optimization (as is often done for the purpose of examining it with a debugger). While debugging, values that an optimized program would normally keep in registers are often pushed to main memory. This may affect, for instance, the result of floating-point comparisons, since the value in memory may have smaller range and accuracy than the value in the register. Similarly, Heisenbugs may be caused by side-effects in test expressions used in runtime assertions in languages such as C and C++, where the test expression is not evaluated when assertions are turned off in production code using the
NDEBUG macro.
Other common causes of heisenbugs are using the value of a non-initialized variable (which may change its address and/or initial value during debugging), or following an invalid pointer (which may point to a different place when debugging). Debuggers also commonly provide watches or other user interfaces that cause additional source code (such as property accessors) to be executed stealthily, which can, in turn, change the state of the program.[10]
Time can also be a factor in heisenbugs, particularly with multi-threaded applications. Executing a program under control of a debugger can change the execution timing of the program as compared to normal execution. Time-sensitive bugs such as race conditions may not occur when the program is slowed down by single-stepping source lines in the debugger. This is particularly true when the behavior involves interaction with an entity not under the control of a debugger, such as when debugging network packet processing between two machines and only one is under debugger control.
Heisenbugs can be viewed as instances of the observer effect in information technology. Frustrated programmers may humorously blame a heisenbug on the phase of the moon,[11] or (if it has occurred only once) may explain it away as a soft error due to alpha particles or cosmic rays affecting the hardware.
Related termsEdit
A bohrbug, by opposition, is a "good, solid bug". Like the deterministic Bohr atom model, they do not change their behavior and are relatively easily detected.[12][13]
A mandelbug (named after Benoît Mandelbrot's fractal) is a bug whose causes are so complex it defies repair, or makes its behavior appear chaotic or even non-deterministic. It also refers to a bug that exhibits fractal behavior by revealing more bugs (the deeper a developer goes into the code to fix it the more bugs they find).[citation needed]
A schrödinbug (named after Erwin Schrödinger and his thought experiment) is a bug that manifests itself in running software after a programmer notices that the code should never have worked in the first place.[citation needed]
A hindenbug [14] (named after the Hindenburg disaster) is a bug with catastrophic behavior.
History of the termEdit
The term was first used in 1981 by computer scientist David L. Fox.[citation needed] The term was also used in 1985 by Jim Gray, in a paper about software failures[15] (and is sometimes mistakenly attributed to him because of this publication) and also in 1986 by Jonathan Clark and Zhahai Stewart on the mailing list (later Usenet news group) comp.risks.[16]
Bruce Lindsay, a researcher at IBM, affirmed in a 2004 ACM Queue interview that he was present when the Heisenbug was originally defined.[17]
|This section does not cite any sources. (May 2013) (Learn how and when to remove this template message)
Heisenbugs are usually resolved through very careful debugging. This works best if one is able to identify the approximate point in code where the bug is occurring. From there, solutions may be sought from inspection of nearby statements or analysis of process dumps.
Another technique is to examine logs, especially those produced by lint and lint-like tools.
For highly persistent heisenbugs, it may be necessary to analyze all possible traces of the program using static program analysis techniques such as abstract interpretation to determine their cause.

Denny Hamlin didn't just have the gut-wrenching experience of watching another driver behind the wheel of his car Sunday.
He also had to spend the day thinking he would have been challenging Jimmie Johnson for the win at Martinsville Speedway.
"It was tough for me," he told Speed in a postrace interview. "It was easy for Jimmie. I told him he got a layup this time — it ain't going to be that easy when we come back in the fall."

Hamlin, out with a compression fracture in his lower back, was replaced by Mark Martin, who was a non-factor and had to rally for a 10th-place finish.
Hamlin has four Cup wins at Martinsville. Johnson dominated the race Sunday for his eighth win at the track.
Hamlin's comments didn't set well with Johnson crew chief Chad Knaus.
"I think it's pretty obvious that it's not Denny, it's the Gibbs cars," Knaus said when asked about Hamlin's comment. "If you look at Matt Kenseth, he couldn't get out of his own way when he was in a Roush car here, and he went out there today and was making it happen.
"I think it's probably more car than driver here for that team."
Johnson later tweeted to Hamlin:
"Get well and we will shoot it out in the fall. Looks like we have some new company to fight it out with now. @dennyhamlin @55markmartin"
Obviously, the Hendrick teams don't shy away from a challenge.
"Denny does a really good job here," Knaus said. "He's fantastic at the short tracks here, Richmond, a lot of those tracks, and I hate it that Denny is hurt.
"That's not the way we want this stuff to go down. But I still think that they're going to be in the Chase and I think they're going to be in contention for the championship."

"And the beat goes on.................................."
Meetings with Outcomes or "Let's Actually Do Something Already":
A couple of weeks ago I suggested that we really ought to convene several national summit meetings to address specific issues - from getting every state to launch a political action committee to establishment of a coherent national research agenda to cooperatively creating the framework for collaborative leveraging of our numbers to achieve the benefits of economy of scale.
I've been thinking about that and what we do (or don't do) when we gather. A recent entry from Thomas Cott's blog -You've Cott Mail - on arts conferences echoed some of what I have been feeling for a long time. (BTW - if you aren't familiar with his You've Cott Mail blog - he curates - on a DAILY basis - thematic entries on a given subject. The amount of work it takes to do what he does is mind boggling. Perhaps only Doug McLennan's Arts Journal is more ambitious. I've been meaning to plug him for a long time. You really should subscribe to Clott's blog. I am a huge fan. While every posting may not interest you, I guarantee you that you will find much to stimulate your thinking over the course of a month. This is one of my favorite blogs.)
Anyway, the first entry in Cott's Friday, January 6th blog was a comment from Eleanor Turney in the UK Guardian: She writes:
"A group of like-minded people gathered in one place could put serious weight behind something and make a practical difference. However, many of the recent [arts conferences] I've attended have not taken advantage of this fact. These events have, at best, been a showcase of great work without much other content and, at worst, been mutual commiserating or back-scratching. I know big conversations happen, around the country, daily. Arts organisations are innovating, taking risks, finding new methods and partners for collaboration. So why doesn't this creative, intelligent, forward-thinking attitude translate into organising good conferences?"For the most part, I enjoy the national arts conferences. I attend several each year, and have had the pleasure to blog on many of them. For me, as for many of those who have been doing this as long, or longer than I have, the chief benefit of these gathering is to network; to connect with old colleagues I haven't seen for awhile, and to meet new people. I think there is great value in this even though I lament that more people cannot attend, that the days are mercilessly crammed with way too many sessions and activities, and that most of the content of these gatherings is not very useful. The exchange of ideas that goes on between sessions and at the social events is really the most valuable part. That is where the real ideas are happening.

Steve was awesome, and for the cost of another drive + $99 for the data "transfer," I got all of my data back in about 2 days. I had the data put on a little silver Western Digital My Passport (750G).
In spring 2011, I decided that I needed a super backup and archive drive for all of my client and music files. I went to Best Buy, and dropped about $200 for a Seagate 2TB drive. I was still floating in the happy days of my Seagate drives from the 1990s, but clearly, these are not those. By July, the drive was completely corrupted and unusable. I went to my local Best Buy, now San Bruno, CA, where Ryan gave me the bad news that they couldn't recover the data. It had to be sent out to their facility in Kentucky, where they do the serious data recovery.
Meanwhile, I'm in emails with Seagate customer support, who are great ONLY at copying and pasting form replies about how frustrating it can be to lose data. Really! Yes, evidently it can be frustrating to lose 1.2TB of data on a brand new 2TB drive. I'm glad they mentioned that. And what will they do to help? Nothing. How did they feel about this being my SECOND Seagate in a row to go POOF while all of my Western Digital drives never had a moment of failure? They sent me a form email about how frustrating it can be to lose data.
But on top of that, they also let me know that their data recovery can start around $1000 and run up to $2500, and would I like to send my drive in. Absolutely not.
Long story short, Geek Squad in Kentucky just called me. They were able to recover ALL of my data except 54MB. Fantastic! To only lose 54MB out of 1.2TB is amazing. However, it cost me $500 for their "level 2" recovery service. This means that a $100 or $200 Seagate drive really costs hundreds more, once you factor in the data recovery, not to mention the time lost. It's October, and my 2TB Seagate drive was failing in July. Geek Squad has had it about 6 weeks.
And yes, they recovered it to a Western Digital 2TB. Seagate can go suck it FIRST for having drives that are evidently prone to failure, and second for giving the worst and most uncaring customer "support" I could have imagined.
Am I doing something so special with these drives? Not that I know of. I haven't put them in the dishwasher. I use them connected to my main laptop or my netbook to work on files. I would think that they are supposed to store files and let me work on files. I didn't think I was doing anything special. And yes, I always do a proper eject or total system shutdown before I remove them. So let's not blame me, please!
What else am I doing now? I'm using SpiderOak to back up to the cloud. That way, if a drive dies, I will have all the important stuff in the cloud. SpiderOak is like Dropbox in that it can backup, sync, and share, but it's better in that it can handle external and networked drives. You get 2G for free, and then they charge around $10 per month per 100G. Based on what I'm paying for data recovery, I will buy a few hundreds gigs on their cloud to know that I don't have to do data recovery ever again.

We have wireless MIDI with products such as the Kenton MIDIStream. An assistant professor at MIT seems to be on the verge of bringing wireless electricity to to world. You can read about Marin Soljacic and his work here: www.fastcompany.com/magazine/132/brilliant.html But let's live in the today where if you have a recording studio you have miles of wires strangling you like an evil spider's web. There is a $10 piece of metal from Ikea that can make your studio beautiful again and it's called Sigmun.
"Collects your electric and computer cables together; makes it easier to keep your work area tidy. Separate trunking for cables that are sensitive to interference." – Ikea
I don't have a desk in my studio (or home) without one or two Sigmun's attached underneath them. Power strips and power bricks all nest happily out of eye sight. Besides making pretty you will have less dust bunnies clinging to rivers of wires. Let's also not forget that without wires all over the floor the less tripping and ripping sockets out of gear will happen.

Hi guys,
After getting shocked by the Screen Space water that is starting to appear at some IOTDs, I started to implement this little thing by myself, on my actual terrain engine that uses the traditional forward rendering approach.
Below is the result of a few hours messing with it. Please note that this water implementation is NOT COMPLETED yet, I just implemented the "virtual" aspect (there is no mesh for the water at all), and the raycasting to calculate transparency.
Now I'll add the sky reflections and bump mapping, so I'll probably post another image in here when I'm finished with it.
The edges clipping is vertex-based, unfortunately. I will be glad to hear some criticism and suggestions! Until now I'm excited with this.
The engine itself has support for sky and other features, but I was not using when I took this screenshot.
Cool! I implemented a partially screen-space water system for Infamous (which uses deferred shading) a few weeks ago. The ability to fog and distort the image behind the water really lends it a lot of realism. Another guy at my company wrote a nifty Fourier synthesis routine to generate the normal map for the water, and that works really well too.
How does it render without a mesh though?
I guess we use the word "render" pretty loosley. It's a post process effect, an easy extension for deferred shading. As I understand it, you take the world-space position of the pixel (presumably from the g-buffer) and set a variable "water line". From there you basicly just test if the pixel is below the water line and how far it is. Theres also other steps to do lighting of course.
At least I *think* thats what it is. I could be wrong. I just remember doing something similar a while back.
Personally though, I havent warmed up to the idea of it yet. IMO it might be hard to get consistant with other water effects that require geometry.
I guess we also use the term "mesh" pretty loosely. Actually, screen-space postprocessing effects use a full-screen quad (though in the case of the water, it would make more sense to clip the quad by the horizon line, to avoid using fillrate for the sky part of the screen).
That said, it's a good idea to use an actual water mesh, as you then get the benefits of early-Z culling to eliminate the pixels where there is no water. You can still recover the screen-space position, sample the depth buffer behind the water, and so on.
Actually, screen-space postprocessing effects use a full-screen quad
Well I just kind of assumed people knew that. Renering an effect without *any* geometry? Tha'd be a trick. Alright, well, I guess I'd say water geometry then.
Just to make things clear, actually it is rendered within the terrain pixel-shader, very much like a fog effect.
It was my fault to mention the screen-space water and not to make it clear that my version is trying to "emulate" the screen-space water, but I'm not using a fullscreen quad.
For every pixel below the water plane, I cast rays from there to the eye position, intersecting with the water plane. Then, based on that distance, I determine the transparency at that pixel.
I made some further tests, and for the game that I'm currently making, it will fit nicely. What I really like about this water is that it is being really quick to implement, and does not add a single vertex to the batch.
EDIT: After some more tests, I am aborting my implementation of this technique, and returning to the water grid approach! I will keep the ray casting though, as I guess that was what really impressed me...
OK, just to finish this thread that was just one of my very own equivoques, here is an up to date image made by my engine:
I am programming this engine in my spare time, which is not much, and starting a small win32 game on top of it.
wow nice work! I've mostly done indoor rendering up to this point, so terrain engines are something new for me to see

Muskingum College hosts Ohio Theatre Alliance auditions January 29
The Muskingum College Department of Speech Communication and Theatre will host the Ohio Theatre Alliance (OTA) North Central Regional Auditions and Interviews on Saturday, January 29 in the Sandra Wolfe Thompson Theatre.
The auditions, which are not open to the public, will draw aspiring acting students from an area of five states contiguous to Ohio and more than 30 professional production companies from around the nation who are looking for talent.
At last year's auditions, producers were on hand from the likes of the Actors Theatre of Louisville, renowned nationally for its annual play festivals and theatrical productions; to more commercial venues like Cedar Point Live Entertainment.
The day's events begin with registration at 6:30 a.m. Then the actors, singers and dancers are given only 90 seconds to display their talents. Based on that audition, participants can be called back for another chance to perform or an interview with producers much later that day. An actor who auditions at 8:30 a.m. could receive a "call back" (another chance to perform and be interviewed) for very late that night.
Muskingum College Professor of Speech Communication and Theatre Dr. Jerry Martin and Associate Professor of Theatre Dr. Diane Rao are coordinating the event, and they will be assisted by students from the college. Dr. Martin said, "On the one hand, this is a really grueling day of work for the performers and producers alike, but all of that is off-set by the very exciting process and what it can lead to. Muskingum is very fortunate to host this event, and the new theatre is a very big part of why the auditions are here."
More than 250 performers of all kinds are expected to audition.

The Nove series from Gourmet is typified by its Chelsea boot-ish gusset, as secured by a prominently branded ankle strap. The Gourmet Nove 2 came onto the scene earlier this year with a novel basket weave embossing applied to its leather upper, which foreshadowed the styles we're seeing here today in Peacoat navy blue and Chili Pepper red. These Nove 2s utilize an alligator texture to take their tonal colorways to the next level, and you can see both pairs in greater detail below before buying yours straight from Gourmet.

A serial killer on death row is taking credit for the murders of Nicole Brown and Ron Goldman.
Glen Rogers -- who's currently on death row in Florida -- has allegedly confessed to murdering Brown and Goldman, saying O.J. Simpson paid him to break into Brown's and steal jewelry.
"My Brother the Serial Killer" claims Glen Rogers, who is currently on death row for another murder, is responsible for the 1994 deaths of O.J. Simpson's ex-wife Nicole Simpson and her friend Ron Goldman.
The documentary, which airs 9 p.m. Nov. 21 on Investigation Discovery, does not include an interview with Rogers' himself, but prominently features interviews with Rogers' brother Clay.
The Daily Mail said that Rogers confessed to the Brown-Goldman killings after he was already in jail for the 1995 murders of Tina Marie Cribbs in Tampa and Sandra Gallagher in Los Angeles. He is also suspected of killing at least 10 others and once claimed to have murdered 70 people.
The Huffington Post reported that Rogers reportedly provided receipts to police that show he was working as a house painter in Los Angeles in 1994 when Brown was murdered. The documentary supposedly says he told family members that he was working for Simpson and that he said she was rich and he was going to "take her down."
Rogers also provided a "detailed account" of the Goldman-Brown Simpson slayings to criminal profiler Anthony Meoli, according to the documentary.
Simpson never mentioned Rogers to investigators because he didn't want his own dealings with Rogers exposed.
Reports on the Rogers case have not explained how what was planned as a jewelry theft ended up as a double homicide.
Rogers was apprehended after his family tipped off investigators to his whereabouts. Clay Rogers explains his decision to do so in the documentary.
"I wasn't turning in my brother," he said. "I was turning in a serial killer."
Ron Goldman's father Fred isn't buying it.
"O.J. Simpson murdered Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman," Goldman said, according to TMZ. "The criminal trial showed overwhelming and monumental evidence that O.J. Simpson was the killer. There was no contrary evidence other than guess, innuendo, and rumor. The fact of the acquittal at the hands of the jury will never wash away this murder from the hands of O.J. Simpson, no matter how many Glen Rogers pop up on the media radar screen."

The Skin of Our Teeth is a humorous and challenging celebration of our will to carry on, to quest, and to love each other until the very last moment—again and again.
Originally entitled, The Ends of the Worlds, Thornton Wilder won the 1943 Pulitzer Prize for this American theater classic which Time magazine called, "a sort of 'Hellzapoppin' with Brains". Lauded as groundbreaking theater, Wilder nearly won the Nobel Prize for The Skin of Our Teeth, until accusations that he'd plagiarized James Joyce's Finnegan's Wake took him out of the running.
This masterful mash-up of farce, burlesque, absurdist and satirical styles follows George and Maggie Antrobus, their perfect (??) children, and their saucy maid Sabina as they confront one end-of-days scenario after another. They survive an approaching ice age, a flood of Biblical proportion, and the throes of war--by the skin of their teeth—fueled only by their curiosity for life and their love for each other.
For tickets call the box office at 507-786-8987. Please visit the Theater Department's web site for additional information on the 2013-2014 theater season and for more ticket information.

- How to Read a Study Record
To determine the effects of zidovudine (AZT) alone and in combination with didanosine (ddI) on viral load in the lymphoid tissue and blood of antiretroviral-naive, HIV-infected patients with CD4 counts greater than or equal to 550 cells/mm3.
Recent studies have shown that during the asymptomatic phase (clinical latency) of HIV infection, there is an extraordinarily large number of infected CD4+ lymphocytes and macrophages throughout the lymphoid system, both in latent and productive states. These findings support the belief that early intervention therapy with reverse transcriptase inhibitors could prolong the clinical latency period.
