Southern California is being buffeted by the worst windstorm in more than a decade – gusts have been clocked as high as 100 miles per hour – resulting in widespread power outages, diverted flights, hundreds of trees down, and the city of Pasadena on an emergency footing.
The high Santa Ana winds, which began late Wednesday, have rattled residents and businesses all over the West, from Utah to Southern California. Hundreds of thousands of people are without power, and colleges, schools and at least one movie studio have shut down.
While some meteorologists are referring to the storm as an especially severe form of the Santa Ana winds that Southern California experiences at this time of year, others say the storm's wind patterns are unusual, affecting communities that don't usually experience such violent weather.
According to the National Weather Service, what's driving the strong winds is a large, cold, low-pressure system centered over Needles, California. The service expects the system to stay put, rotating counter-clockwise for at least another day, although with declining power.
[ Video is no longer available. ]
"These are the worst winds we have seen in at least a decade," says Stuart Seto, a National Weather Service specialist in Oxnard, near Los Angeles. He says he expects the winds to continue gusting into the weekend, with winds as high as 55 mph through Saturday. "If you are on a motorcycle or a high profile vehicle, you may want to stay off the Interstate," he adds, "as the cross winds will continue to be very strong."
Santa Ana or not, the winds are unusual in the areas they are hitting, says Ken Clark, a Southern California meteorologist for Accu Weather, the largest private weather forecasting service.
Typically, the traditional Santa Ana winds would have swept through the Ventura County region in the Los Angeles area, Mr. Clark says.
But the wind pattern from this storm has taken an unusual course, hitting areas that are not accustomed to the Santa Anas. "That's when you start to see more damage," he says, because trees in particular are not accustomed to taking such a beating.
Pasadena was one of the worst hit areas, with some 450 city-owned trees downed by Thursday afternoon and at least one wind-related injury resulting in hospitalization.
"The town is rattled," says city spokesman, Tim McGillivray. At least 16 city agencies have been put on high alert, with a citywide emergency footing imposed to handle downed power lines and other emergency calls.
"We don't know how many trees have been weakened by the winds," he says, "but at the moment, all our personnel are working to help clear debris and answer emergency calls."
According to the California Department of Public Works, there is extensive damage throughout Southern California, including power outages and blowing debris.
Power was out at Los Angeles International Airport for at least an hour, diverting flights to nearby airports. An estimated 300,000 Southern California residents were without power on Thursday.
The National Weather Service has put out high wind warnings and advisories for parts of California, Utah, Nevada, Wyoming, Arizona and New Mexico. The weather system is expected to eventually bring some nasty weather to Oklahoma, Missouri and Indiana.
As of 3 p.m. Thursday, the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power said it had restored power to 80,000 electrical customers since the windstorm started Wednesday night, but that nearly 1 in 10 of its customers were without power (130,000 out of 1.4 million), with several neighborhoods experiencing outages as a result of the high winds.
It said it had called in repair crews from elsewhere in California and out of state to get power back, but that customers still without power could expect delays of up to 48 hours.

"Ward Charcoal Ovens State Historic Park State Park is a Nevada state park in White Pine County, Nevada. Located 20 miles south of the town of Ely, it is in the Eastern Nevada Region of Nevada State Parks.
The charcoal ovens are associated with the silver mining town of Ward, established in 1876. The town at its peak had a population of 1500, two newspapers, a school, fire department, two smelters and a stamp mill. The town declined after 1880, with a fire in 1883 destroying a third of the town. The post office closed in 1876. The town has been mostly destroyed by repeated flash flooding in its low-lying site. only the smelter and mill foundations and a cemetery are left. Mining revived briefly in the 1930s and 1960s.
The charcoal ovens are two miles to the south of the townsite. Six large ovens remain in excellent repair, 30 feet (9.1 m) high, 27 feet (8.2 m) in diameter, with walls 2 feet (0.61 m) thick at the base. The ovens were built in 1876 by itinerant Italian masons who specialized in the ovens, who were known as carbonari. The charcoal ovens prepared charcoal from locally-harvested timber for use in the smelters at Ward, using 30 to 60 bushels of charcoal per ton of ore, for 16,000 bushels a day. The Ward ovens are the best-preserved of their kind in Nevada.
The Ward Charcoal Ovens were listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 1971." from website: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ward_Charcoal_Ovens_State_Historic_Park

Resolve to be resilient for 2014
Each new year, nearly half of Americans make resolutions, with 38 percent of those being about weight loss - it's the No. 1 goal. But only 8 percent are successful in keeping their resolutions through the end of the year. Instead, in this four-part series, we propose becoming more resilient. This isn't about being thinner: It's about being sick less and having more energy. It's about getting better sleep and being more relaxed. It's about having a tougher emotional core as well as a physical one. Resolving to be resilient is about being stronger in every way possible so that you can bounce back from whatever life throws your way in 2014. We wish you a healthy, happy new year.
Have a game plan
"It's kind of hard to get somewhere if you don't even know where you're going," says certified personal trainer Stacy Fowler, a Golden-based fitness club owner known as "Coach Stacy."
Creating a strategy - particularly a written or visual one that you can access regularly - is considered to be a critical part of a successful fitness regimen, according to research, trainers and many people who have completed successful weight-loss or training programs.
"Tracking your progress, so that you can refer back to it, see where you are and what you still want to do, that's going to keep you going," says Fowler, a former high school educator who served under four governors as the president of the Colorado Governor's Council for Physical Fitness and is the state coordinator for the Presidents' Challenge. "You can tweak your goals and set new ones when you reach them. It's very motivating, and it keeps you honest."
To help her clients do just that, Fowler came up with FitZip, a simple chart that focuses on the basic daily components of a healthy lifestyle as recommended by the surgeon general: five servings of fruits and vegetables; three servings of calcium; no more than two hours of passive screen time; one hour of physical activity; and zero sugary drinks.
"I call it 'changing your zip code' to get people thinking about changing where they are in a life sense," Fowler says. "It really does have to be making changes, but these don't have to be radical changes. If you just look at it each day and think, 'What am I doing, right now, to hit these goals?' It's easier than you think."
Not only that - it can be a life-saver. For instance, the average American spends nearly five months' worth of time plugged into a device over a year, Fowler says. "You have a 6 percent risk of being overweight for every one hour a day that you watch TV, too," she says. "Studies show that it makes us less creative and cuts down on our abilities to problem-solve, but add it to the issues of sitting being a serious health risk, and this is something we really need to change."
Fowler recommends taking it one day at a time, though. "This is one of those situations where people panic if they imagine they have to do this forever," she says. "But looking at it as, 'OK, I am going to hit this goal today. Just today.' That's doable. And then start again tomorrow, and see if it's doable again tomorrow."
"The next thing you know, it's been a whole month, and I promise, you'll feel the difference. Or, as I always say, if you're moving, you're improving."
Pay attention to when you eat
Much ado is made about what you eat - getting at least five servings (and up to eight if you can) of fruits and vegetables, avoiding sugar and trans and saturated fats, making sure plants fill up half of the plate, but registered dietitian Suzanne Farrell says that keeping track of when you eat can be just as important.
"If someone has gone past four hours of not eating, that affects the choices and the quantity of the foods they reach for," says Farrell. "I call that being on hunger thin ice, because once your body is physiologically ravenous, then we want those fats and starchy food. And we want a lot of it."
To keep track, Farrell recommends a food journal - which can be as informal as a small notebook where you jot down the times you eat each day to a more complex app such as Lose It! or My Fitness Pal, which allow you to record calories and plan meals.
"Keeping a journal of some sort has been linked to weight loss," says Farrell, who owns Cherry Creek Nutrition and counsels clients on weight management as well as disease states and sports nutrition. "We generally underestimate our caloric intake by about 1,000 calories a day, which is significant."
The other issue, Farrell says, is not eating enough at each meal. "You need to look at your body weight and know how much you should actually be eating at each meal," she says. "If you get enough calories at each meal, that will keep you from overeating later in the day, which can have a big impact on weight gain. People tend to eat too little at, say, breakfast, and then eat thousands of calories late at night, when it's not going to get burned off."
Farrell also strongly encourages assessing your hunger level at each meal and throughout the day, so that you avoid eating for other reasons.
"Are you eating just because you see food?" she says to ask yourself. "For instance, right now I'm not hungry, but if you put a bowl of popcorn in front of me, I would eat it. We eat because someone sets food out on the counter at work, or we eat because we're sad or bored."
When you sit down to a meal, gauge your hunger level with a number from 1 to 5, she advises, and plan the next meal accordingly.
"If you're just in the middle, just medium-hungry," she says, "then eat that way. Don't have a full meal. Then know that you need to have a healthy snack in an hour or two to keep yourself from overeating at the next meal."

Zombie Apoc. Part 4.
by, 07-16-2009 at 07:15 PM (4855 Views)
So hopefully you have read the first three parts leading to this one. If not then go ahead and read them. If you don't want to then...idc? Please rate this, or comment with opinions. I like critics. Oh and if you HAVE been reading...You thought he was dead didn't you? MUAHAHAHA.
I have never been knocked unconscious in my life, but since I've been to Canada it's happened twice. It's not a great feeling getting beaten until you can't see. So my left leg is broken, and everything hurts. My face is swollen a most attractive purple-y orange color, with crusted blood coming out of my nose, and each eye. I wasn't sure why at first but they shaved my entire head. I found out later they did it to cut up my scalp and further scar me. The hung me up by my neck and wrists. If I stopped holding myself up with my arms the rope would pull on my neck and suffocate me. Sick bastards...
When they realized how long this would take they started stoning me. One hit me square in the eye, another in the broken leg, a few in the ribs and stomach, my neck seemed to be a favorite target. The executioner who put me here was punching me in the kidneys. I was boned. I was so terrible boned. Then that kid. The one who shot me before shot the glass around the dome with this M4 Carbine that I still to this day have no idea how he got. He blew a piece of glass right out of the dome. Naturally this is stupid when your underneath said piece of glass....which crushed and sliced and killed him in some vicious spray of blood leaving a twitching arm and jawless, glasses lined, face staring up (kinda. One eye was off to the side.)
Now I'm in pain...but everyone is silent. Stones stop being cast...no one is quite sure what to say. Someone walks over. A farmer I had hardly spoken too named Randel. Walks up to Frankies corpse and pulls the M4 out...right as he does the siren blares. Zombies have reached the glass, which started cracking. And I am certain I'm screwed. If the glass doesn't kill me, the zombies will.
Well luckily everyone ran inside for fear the glass would kill them and left me there. The glass had come down around me but the beam above me blocking any direct slices. A zombie then fell through the roof above me, slammed into the beam and broke it, which landed on my head and made me collapse some 4ft from the infected person in overals. He was slightly crippled and adjusting to his newly shattered limbs when the rednecks came running out of their huts guns-a-blazin'. I founda bit of glass and grabbed it cutting the binds on my left hand. The zombie looked at me and let a deep moan out. I started working on the binds on my neck when he started to crawl. Without realizing my immediate danger he was within 6 inches of my leg when another zombie fell through the glass and crushed him. His arm sticking out and twitching, clawing, and swinging just barely out of reach. I finally cut my neck binds when the zombie who just dropped in (get it?) stood up and let the one on bottom go. Two lucky shots saved my life there, as bullets ripped through the noggins of the zombies in front of me. Why anyone would waste ammo here to save my life is beyond me, but thanks anyway random gunman hillbilliy!
I had gotten all the ropes off. I had dragged myself off their makeshift wooden stage, and straight into the dirt. It was about here I realized I had nowhere to go. There was no way out with the glass shattering at every single slight step on it, and even if there was the dome is now surrounded by the undead. I'm kinda option-less. What I did know however is that I stand a much higher chance of survival if I hide from these hicks so I crawled myself away from the stage and underneath the same hut it had been when I first woke up in here.
I never noticed how stupid these people were, that they figured me among the corpses of zombies and dead when they removed the bodies and got back to work on fixing the glass. Luckily the hole in the center of the dome was still there and the platform even stayed standing on the outside. I stayed under the medical building occasionally crawling up and out to steal supplies at night to fix myself up with. My leg hadn't been as bad as I thought, just bruised the bone and not broken. It healed in a week or so. I had crawled through the dirt to other homes stealing clothes, and food and an empty pistol. I survived this way for a good long while, pooping in peoples yards just to mess with them.
I finally had the clothes, and the hat, and the strong enough leg to move...now I just had to wait for the next siren to go off and climb up there just acting like one of the assaulting masses. Then make sure I'm the last one down and blast the ****ers as they crawl down the ladder back into their home. I'll set this whole place on fire...
My time had come. The sirens blazed. I crawled out the back of the hut andlimped my way up to the ladder behind 4 hicks. When we got up...I realized I had an EMPTY pistol. Not a loaded one. So what I did was grab the hick before me, turn him around, smash the side of his face with the pistol, then grab his little M1911, and shoot the other three hicks before sliding down the glass of the dome to a small unpopulated hole in the undead crowds. It was out here I noticed the source of the electricity for the medical supplies. A transformer that was sitting in a telephone pole was now dangling on the outside of the dome providing them power.
I shot the transformer which released a tiny blue spark, which did nothing. I limped away apparently unnoticed by the undead, too distracted with the dome. Which worked for me. Several feet away I turn and see the dome on fire. Smoke shooting straight into the sky. A helicopter flies overhead and lands in one of the nearby fields signaling for me to come to them. I limped and limped and limped...I was almost there! Freedom!
I swear 30ft. If they would have just dropped the f*cking thing 30ft closer I could have been on it and away. But no. One of the infected late to the party of the Crooked Creek Dome had crawled out of the tall grass and bit the leg of one of the gunners. The gunner flipped and started fireing everywhere, the pilot got scared and started to take off, I was fireing at the undead in the field. The helicopter got 60ft in the air leaving me to die when they kicked out Pvt. Godfrey who screamed the entire way down back to earth. It was his rifle I used to fend myself off from the oncoming hordes off zombies trying to attack a helicopter that isn't there. I discovered here that they only died from headshots. Godfreys ammo kept me alive for a nice long time that way. Just walking, shooting, sleeping in the trees. I wasn't sure where I was going but I sure wasn't going to stay there.

Niassa Reserve: in detail
In the far north of Mozambique is the impressive Niassa Reserve. Bordering Tanzania, Niassa is the largest conservation area in Mozambique. Covering 42,000 square kilometers it is also one of the most extensive protected areas in Africa.
Like the rest of the country, Niassa Reserve was badly affected by civil war. During the 1970s and 80s, its game was extensively poached. In recent years, as game populations have slowly started to recover, it has started to be of great interest for wildlife safaris. However, don't go to Niassa if you want to tick off the big five – but do go to experience a vast untouched wilderness with no one else around.
Recent data indicates that Niassa Reserve now has an estimated 12,000 elephant, 9,000 sable and many thousands of buffalo – as well as healthy populations of Lichtenstein's hartebeest, eland and zebra. There are also smaller populations of kudu, bushbuck, impala, wildebeest, waterbuck, reedbuck and hippo. Lion, leopard and spotted hyena are also found here, as well as an estimated 200 African wild dogs.
These game populations shouldn't surprise anyone, as the Niassa Reserve is part of the same eco-system as Tanzania's vast Selous Game Reserve. There are no fences between the two areas, and conservationists have long known of animal migrations between the two. (There's even an embryonic plan to join the two as part of a Transfrontier Peace-park.)
Having said that Niassa has good game populations, the wildlife here remains very unused to seeing vehicles or people, and so can be quite skittish. This is not the place to get close to big game, but it is the place to experience some wildlife in a beautiful and remote location.
As of yet, none of the Expert Africa team have visited Niassa Reserve, though we hope to as soon as possible. We are excited about what this park can offer to our more intrepid travellers, who want to be amongst the first to visit such a vast and largely unexplored wilderness area.

So with the new "Explore" tab you'll find suggestions based on the places users have been, places your friends have visited, your loyalty to your favorite places, the categories and types of places you gravitate towards and what's popular with other Foursquare users. The Explore tab will also suggest reasons why you should visit a particular place. Suggestions are categorized in Food, Coffee, Nightlife and A&E. Another major update of the Foursquare app has something to do with the Leaderboard. This feature now features a sliding 7-day barometer of you and your friends. In addition, check-ins also now starts various actions including – discovering new places, trying new types of restaurants, visiting new offices, getting groups together and more. And finally for business establishments who have made their presence in Foursquare will now have six new Specials to give out to their loyal patrons. They will soon be able to offer Specials to swarms, groups of friends, regulars, newbies, Mayors and practically every users who chance upon these Specials while using Foursquare Android app. If you don't want to wait for those Specials to appear, you can easily check them via the Places tab from the main menu of the app. So there.

I think it's a you one other things we After recognizes ninety five percent ... of customers are outside the ... state ... so if you're a business leader ... you need to recognize that you don't take your product the restaurant someone else is going into that ... and yet wonderful at the Department Commerce export assistance centers that help ... you figure out where the world your product is competitive in the F one commercial service ... will help you in that country ... find dead ... retailer or supplier ... or distributors you can get your product markets but we very much ... have a service hoping companies to that ... we need to do more of that we need to make sure that companies for export ... the other thing we need to do when a dead cicada workforce the home many of the products that they make ... are being sent somewhere else in the well ... off that someone doesn't now ... eleven point three million jobs in this country ... supported solely by exports ... three hundred thousand ... jobs ... in just in the last year were created because exports ... so that the question then politically becomes if that's the case if there are many more people out there than is commonly realized working because of ... exports because of international trade why isn't there more support ... was a more sport your party the Democratic party ... for free trade agreements you're you're having problems being ... fast tracked through the Congress right now that might finish the regular facial what you need to do ... to create more support for free trade given that that's the economic ... I think we need more of a grassroots campaign where the average worker understands ... more closely that for every additional billion dollars of exports that we can ask the priest fortified house ... so we need to get this word out the need to explain that the customers ... ninety five percent are outside the United States ... and that for our companies can thrive and continue and they stop creating I think there's a misperception ... that AvaTrade Cr AG and traded the man ... is not choppy ... TPP ... perception their jobs losing exactly the TPP will create ... its estimate I think uh hundred and twenty five billion dollars the year additional ... economic value in the United States ... so we need to ... change the perception ... we need to do a better job of educating ... folks about this you need to change the perception are part of the summit ... while this politics too ... yes the thought that this is what is working ... you've been spent on a Silicon Valley hit him in last ... week's in recent days ... um what's the agenda that people in Silicon Valley want ... Washington the people around us were receiving today pursuing ... what's on their wish the wish list ... well on their wishlist is immigration reform that very interested in immigration reform are also interested ... in patent reform ... I they've seen this an enormous spike in the non am not litigation ... going on in the pack in Syria and its destructive to innovation ... and they wanna see reforms that happens first on the steps of a theory about that in the ...

- yes,
&is 5 characters
- the last part,
&protocol=httpis important, since it restricts the list of mirrors to those that support http. Monitor bug 349679 for status/progress on p2 working with ftp sites. (In general, such as for zip files linked on download pages, and similar, the 'protocol' parameter is optional for the
download.phpscript and when omitted both http and ftp mirrors are returned).
p2.mirrorsURL property will tell p2 to use the given URL to fetch a list of available mirrors (in xml format).
How to add?
If you use a
site.xml the word goes that this is where you should specify this property. The Equinox/p2/Publisher should automatically
transfer this information into your metadata.
If you don't use a
site.xml you may consider manually editing
artifacts.xml (which of course can be automated using, e.g.,
an xsl template, like this p2.xsl from the Mylyn project). When manually editing
artifacts.xml add the property to the existing list of properties right at the top of the document. Don't forget to update the
size attribute of the enclosing
<properties> element.
Others have reported that the
p2.mirror ant task can be used to insert properties like p2.mirrorsURL while mirroring the build output to the final destination. The following two snippets may serve for inspiration:
<!-- generate template with proper mirror urls --> <copy file=".../template-artifacts.xml" tofile="${buildDirectory}/publishRepoTemplate/artifacts.xml"> <filterset> ... specify string substitutions here ... </filterset> </copy>
<!-- mirror to target (but only the bits that really changed) --> <p2.mirror ...> <source location="..."/> <destination .../> <destination kind="artifact" compressed="true" name="${p2.repo.name.prefix} (Build ${buildId})" location="..." append="true" format="${templateRepoUrl}"/> ... </p2.mirror>
These snippets were extracted from this build.xml from the gyrex project.
How to test?
First, you may paste the full URL you specified as the value into your browser (now collapse & to &). The result should be an XML file with lots of mirror URLs. Pasting one of these URLs into the browser should in turn take you to the directory holding your
artifacts.jar and friends.
Secondly, to test whether install successfully uses mirrors you may use the following options file (stored, e.g., as
org.eclipse.equinox.p2.core/debug=true org.eclipse.equinox.p2.core/artifacts/mirrors=true
(The first line generally enables debugging p2, the second line selects specific tracing for mirror selection)
Then you may want to unpack a fresh Eclipse package and change into the
eclipse directory.
Finally, use the Equinox/p2/Director application for installing your feature using this command line:
./eclipse -consoleLog -noSplash -debug /tmp/p2options -application org.eclipse.equinox.p2.director \ -repository http://download.eclipse.org/myproject/myrepo \ -installIU org.eclipse.myproject.myfeature.group
This should install your feature and print to the console where each artifact was downloaded from.
p2.mirrorsURL is not properly configured no such messages will be shown.
Conversely, you can disable the automatic mirror selection mechanism by setting the VM argument eclipse.p2.mirrors to false (remember that vm args have to be last on the command line preceded by the switch
Moving a repo to archive.eclipse.org
Another situation where redirected downloads are desirable is when a repo is moved from download.eclipse.org to archive.eclipse.org. For files references using the Find a Mirror script (http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/download.php?file=/path/to/a/file.zip) moving to archive is transparently handled by that script. This section is exploring how the same effect can be achieved for p2 repositories.
The obvious way might be through the use of p2.mirrorsURL, however, I couldn't get this to work -- Stephan.
The following strategy seems to do the job (although admittedly, not a candidate for beauty contests):
- when moving everything to archive.eclipse.org keep a copy of all metadata (
artifacts.jarand all those) on download.eclipse.org.
- extract the .xml files and edit like so:
- for composite repositories
- edit both compositeContent.xml and compositeArtifacts.xml:
- simply change all relative paths to absolute paths pointing to http://archive.eclipse.org/something
- for leaf repositories
- edit artifacts.xml (this is the ugly, unofficial approach - use at your own risk):
- remove any
p2.mirrorsURLproperty (and decrease the
sizeof the enclosing
<properties>element accordingly).
- in the
<mappings>element replace all occurrences of
${repoUrl}with the archive path to your repo, like
- to be on the safe side increment the p2.timestamp value in the top list of properties
- remove any
After editing put the .xml files back into their respective jar.
An alternative, cleaner strategy for leaf repositories has been discussed in bug 349141#c3:

Red Sox get valuable piece back in Ross
SAN FRANCISCO -- Monday was a big day for backup catcher David Ross, as he was back on Boston's roster for the first time in over two months.
Ross suffered his second concussion of the season June 14 and went through a lengthy recovery.
The Red Sox were thrilled to have him back, given his status as a highly respected clubhouse figure and a solid catcher.
"He's a guy that has handled our pitchers very well. He brings a lot of energy to our clubhouse, to the dugout," said manager John Farrell. "He's got a lot of history here in the National League with the teams we're going to go up against. He's a guy we had the intention catching a lot of games for us, and unfortunately the two concussions have limited that. Thankfully he's gotten past those and is 100 percent ready to go. I think the 16 or 18 at-bats he had at Triple-A is getting him back in the flow of things. We're excited to have him back here with us, active."
Ross will likely start Tuesday's game against the Giants. His return should enable Jarrod Saltalamacchia to get some more rest.
"He's leading our team in doubles right now," Farrell said of Saltalmacchia. "He's made consistent progress from the right side of the plate, particularly of late against some lefties, and he's handled both sides of the game very well. There was a lot of talk about 'How much can he endure? What's his endurance behind the plate?' Offensively, it hasn't dragged him down one bit. He's been very much in the flow of everything we've done."
To make room for Ross on the roster, the Red Sox optioned Ryan Lavarnway back to Triple-A Pawtucket.

Having read this rant, I feel that they're probably right (seeing as the Xenon and the CELL BE are both highly sensitive to branchy and cache ignorant code), but I've heard that people are making games fine with C# too.
So, is it true that it's impossible to do anything professional with XNA, or was the poster just missing what makes XNA the killer API for game development?
By professional, I don't mean in the sense that you can make money from it, but more in the sense that the more professional games have phsyics models and animation systems that seem outside the reach of a language with such definite barriers to the intrinsics. If I wanted to write a collision system or fluid dynamics engine for my game, I don't feel like C# offers me the chance to do that as the runtime code generator and the lack of intrinsics gets in the way of performance.
However, many people seem to be fine working within these constraints, making their successful games but seemingly avoiding any of the problems by omission. I've not noticed any XNA games do anything complex other than what's already provided by the libraries, or handled by shaders. Is this avoidance of the more complex game dynamics because of teh limitations of C#, or just people concentrating on getting it done?
In all honesty, I can't believe that AI war can maintain that many units of AI without some data oriented approach, or some dirty C# hacks to make it run better than the standard approach, and I guess that's partly my question too, how have people hacked C# so it's able to do what games coders do naturally with C++?

Senior's music project benefits local schoolchildren
In her classroom, Kate Tidaback '11, a music and psychology double major at William & Mary, is better known as "Ms. Kate." Her class takes place every Monday afternoon at the Williamsburg Montessori School, and her students are 9-to-12-year-olds.
As part of her senior music project, Tidaback is spending her final semester as an undergraduate working at the school in a new partnership between it and the William & Mary music department. In addition to conducting research into elementary music education techniques and leading her students in an end-of-year concert, Tidaback visits the school for a half-hour every week to teach a class.
She begins each lesson by leading the 25 grade-schoolers through warm-ups borrowed from Reveille, the all-female a cappella group Tidaback directs on campus. Then it's down to business.
"I'm used to teaching musical things to people, but I'm used to teaching people my age," Tidaback said. "It's a totally new experience with kids that young because I was that age 10-plus years ago and I don't remember what I knew back then. At first I didn't know what they knew and what I still needed to teach them."
Last year, Music Professor Mary Fletcher was asked by Williamsburg Montessori school teacher Beth Wheeler if she knew any students who might be interested in helping to establish a partnership between the two schools. Fletcher immediately knew Tidaback was the right student for the assignment.
"I always enjoy helping the music majors who study voice with me find senior projects which will further their growth in the field of music," said Fletcher, "and I am so pleased that this is coming to fruition."
Tidaback, who is currently applying to various graduate programs in music education while at the same time managing her weekly lessons with the Montessori students, said she was nervous but flattered when Fletcher told her about the opportunity.
"It's really exciting that I get to do something like this," Tidaback said.
As a senior, Tidaback is required by the music department to either perform a recital in her primary instrument of study -- in her case, voice -- or conduct a research project that will culminate in a paper or presentation. After she was put in touch with the Montessori school, Tidaback received permission to use her work with the students as her senior project, to be accompanied by a 15-page paper detailing her preliminary research and "any interesting things that happened along the way."
It was this preliminary research which led Tidaback to a Hungarian music theorist named Zoltan Kodaly. Kodaly, after observing the subpar musical teaching methods common in the 1940s, invented a system of movable solfege symbols which are still in use today, although they are better known as the syllables in "Do-Re-Mi" from "The Sound of Music."
Studies have since shown that Kodaly's method, if taught to children when young, gives them a basis for reading music at an earlier age. Before she began her first lesson, Tidaback did research into the Kodaly teaching style, and discovered that it works well with the Montessori school's philosophy of children being self-motivated to learn.
Ever since her first class in mid-February, wherein, according to Tidaback "I introduced myself, told them what I was doing there, and then we just sort of went at it," the music major has been working with the students in her class on preparing a handful of short pieces for their America- and Virginia-themed end of year recital.
She continues to be surprised by the level of music knowledge and intuitiveness they bring to each class. For example, while working on a piece called "My Thoughts Are Free," Tidaback asked the assembled students where they thought the piece might have come from. One of the young students gave an answer about the freedom of the mind among oppressed peoples.
Tidaback was also surprised by the musical tastes of her students, which she said have been heavily influenced by "Glee." One day she asked the class what songs they liked and received answers such as "Dynamite," a dance-pop song which reached number two on the Billboard 100, and was recently covered by the cast of the popular TV show.
"I was really surprised," she said. "I did not listen to music that cool when I was 10."
As the Montessori students' final recital in April draws closer, Tidaback said that she has been challenged, entertained, and sometimes even intimidated by her task with this class, but noted that, if nothing else, this experience has confirmed her desire to become a music teacher.
"I really like the idea of being a kid's first exposure to music," she said.

Known in music circles as one of the most influential drummers in hard rock and metal history, Mark Zonder's career in music has spanned more than three decades and a multitude of roles… from underground celebrity to progressive metal icon to drummer for hire to businessman.
While he began playing drums in grade school in Northern California, Mark established himself professionally when he formed the band Warlord in San Jose with guitarist Bill Tsamis in 1982 and migrated to Los Angeles. Although they recorded only one self-financed $800 Mini LP ("Deliver Us"), one single (Lost and Lonely Days/Aliens), one full length album (1984's "…And The Cannons of Destruction Have Begun") and never played a live show during their three short years signed to LA's Metal Blade Records in the early 80s, Warlord's unique Euro-Metal sound and stylized image had an immediate impact on the Southern California metal scene. Their head banging anthems "Lucifer's Hammer" and "Child of the Damned" (which was later covered by the Swedish band Hammerfall) became cult classics making Warlord trendsetting and often imitated pioneers for a generation of "rawk"-loving fans.
With his underground cred firmly in effect by the mid-80s, Mark was recruited to replace the original drummer of seminal prog-metal outfit Fates Warning for their 1989 album "Perfect Symmetry." In Fates, Mark moved from Metal's fringes squarely into its center becoming a drummer whose style and technique influenced hard rockers worldwide. He recorded six studio albums and two live albums with the band and also did several world tours.
During this period, Mark also branched out creatively, playing with a variety of groups in different genres including the founding members of New Wave popsters Animotion in their offshoot group Plane English. In this phase of his career, Mark enhanced his knowledge of electronic percussion, which has become part of his trademark sound. He also founded his rehearsal and recording studio business, Bill's Place (Now AJ&Syd's Bump City Studio), which is still one of the top "lock out" recording spaces in Los Angeles.
In 2002, Warlord reunited to record "Rising Out of the Ashes" with Joacim Cans of Hammerfall on lead vocals. That year also saw them play their first two live gigs at the Wacken Festival in Germany in front of 40,000 fans; a testimony to the enduring legacy of their 80s heyday that still reverberates today with the tens of thousands of Warlord disciples around the globe that have kept the music alive with fans clubs, websites and the continued proliferation of the band's songs.
In 2007, Mark formed Slavior enlisting guitarist Wayne Findlay and vocalist Gregg Analla. Bassist Philip Bynoe joined shortly after. The group released its eponymous debut album that year on the European label Inside Out--which the metal press called "fresh, original, and modern"--and played shows in the U.S. and Japan.
Since then, Mark recorded new Slavior material (soon to be released under his Sons Of A Dream Music label), played on a number of studio recordings for other artists and doing a series of Guitar Center-sponsored drum clinics nationwide that featured his signature techniques and tips from his drumming DVD. He also got back on the road with Fates in 2010 for a series of European dates.
Fast forward to 2012, that saw long standing hurdles removed and Warlord was once back together for a monumental album called "The Holy Empire" that was received with rave reviews from press and fans alike. Mounting pressure from fans and promoters in the meantime, led to the first ever Warlord tour in spring 2013, that included sold out headlining shows, a live worldwide TV appearance, countless interviews and magazine covers and a recorded concert (to be released in early 2014 on BluRay Disc / DVD and double CD). 2013, apart from the Warlord shows and live recordings, also saw the birth of Sons Of A Dream Music LLC, a joint venture by Mark & Bill that gives finally a "home" to the music of Warlord, Slavior, Lordian Guard and Mark' & Bill's side projects with extremely successful re-releases of a number of Warlord, Slavior and Bill Tsamis' material.
Currently, Mark's laying down the rhythm foundation for Warlord's new album while still involved in session recordings as well as his own projects.
Whether developing his own projects or lending his talents to the sessions or shows for which he's hired, Mark always brings a combination of professionalism, creativity and musical sensibility to every endeavor no matter how big or small. To him, it's about how his role can make the music the best that it can be.
"At the end of the day, it's about how you as a musician can fit into any situation—a concert, a recording—and try to make it great," Mark offers. "Just because you can play some crazy lick or riff, it doesn't mean you should if it's not right for the final product."
When Mark's not recording, performing or running AJ & Syd's Bump City Studios, he can be found riding his racing bicycle 100 miles a week near his home outside Loa Angeles and spending time with his wife, two children and his dog Chief.

You will surely find on the Net that naturism is growing by leaps and bounds and you will also find some very interesting sites and people who have come to the same conclusion. Nudity is natural, healthy, and all too big a secret. This post is about the naturist and family.
Family naturism
There are many ways to promote naturism both in your home and in the minds of those in your life.
Whether it is to extol the benefits of being naked or to make others aware of what harm a clothing (fashion) compulsive mindset can do. Some may want to be out of this shell because they like being naked, others because of what the shell stands for and what it physically does to them.
Clothing as a repressive tool is not a foreign concept. There are several books on this.
Children and naturism
If you have teen children or are about to have, you will be reminded all to quickly, the role dress plays in the social scheme of things.
Girls possibly more than boys need to keep in mind what clothing says, what it does to you, and the effect it has on what you think of yourself and your body.
Naturism has a profound effect here. To say that what is really important is you and your body. That you don't have to live up to someone else standards, especially when it does you harm.
Family naturist resorts
Naturist campsites offer the facilities you need for your family. And your first choice for clothes-free recreation in a natural environment. It's your place to relax or play sports with the family.
> Here you find reviews of naturist campsites which are very suitable for family naturism

London Travel Guide
For the tourist, London is a thrilling place with a multitude of places to visit. Monuments from the capital's glorious past are everywhere, from medieval banqueting halls and the great churches of Christopher Wren to the eclectic Victorian architecture of the triumphalist British Empire. There is no shortage of things to do in London: you can relax in the city's quiet Georgian squares, explore the narrow alleyways of the City of London, wander along the riverside walks, and uncover the quirks of what is still identifiably a collection of villages. The largest capital in the European Union, stretching for more than thirty miles from east to west, and with a population of just under eight million, London is also incredibly diverse, ethnically and linguistically, offering cultural and culinary delights from right across the globe.
The capital's great historical landmarks – Big Ben, Westminster Abbey, Buckingham Palace, St Paul's Cathedral, the Tower of London and so on – draw in millions of tourists every year. This isn't a city that rests on its laurels, however. Since the turn of the millennium, all of London's world-class museums, galleries and institutions have been reinvented, from the Royal Opera House to the British Museum. With Tate Modern and the London Eye, the city boasts the world's largest modern art museum and Europe's largest Ferris wheel. And thanks to the 2012 Olympics, even the East End – not an area previously on most tourists' radar – has been given an overhaul.
You could spend days just shopping in London, mixing with the upper classes in the "tiara triangle" around Harrods, or sampling the offbeat weekend markets of Portobello Road, Brick Lane and Camden. The city's pubs have always had heaps of atmosphere, and food is now a major attraction too, with more than fifty Michelin-starred restaurants and the widest choice of cuisines on the planet. The music, clubbing and gay and lesbian scenes are second to none, and mainstream arts are no less exciting, with regular opportunities to catch outstanding theatre companies, dance troupes, exhibitions and opera.
London's special atmosphere comes mostly, however, from the life on its streets. A cosmopolitan city since at least the seventeenth century, when it was a haven for Huguenot immigrants escaping persecution in Louis XIV's France, today it is truly multicultural, with over a third of its permanent population originating from overseas. The last hundred years has seen the arrival of thousands from the Caribbean, the Indian subcontinent, the Mediterranean, the Far East and Eastern Europe, all of whom play an integral part in defining a metropolis that is unmatched in its sheer diversity.
A brief history
The Romans founded Londinium in 43 AD as a stores depot on the marshy banks of the Thames. Despite frequent attacks – not least by Queen Boudicca, who razed it in 61 AD – the port became secure in its position as capital of Roman Britain by the end of the century. London's expansion really began, however, in the eleventh century, when it became the seat of the last successful invader of Britain, the Norman duke who became William I of England (aka "the Conqueror"). Crowned king of England in Westminster Abbey, William built the White Tower – centrepiece of the Tower of London – to establish his dominance over the merchant population, the class that was soon to make London one of Europe's mightiest cities.
Little is left of medieval or Tudor London. Many of the finest buildings were wiped out in the course of a few days in 1666 when the Great Fire of London annihilated more than thirteen thousand houses and nearly ninety churches, completing a cycle of destruction begun the year before by the Great Plague, which killed as many as a hundred thousand people. Chief beneficiary of the blaze was Christopher Wren, who was commissioned to redesign the city and rose to the challenge with such masterpieces as St Paul's Cathedral and the Royal Naval Hospital in Greenwich.
Much of the public architecture of London was built in the Georgian and Victorian periods of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, when grand structures were raised to reflect the city's status as the financial and administrative hub of the British Empire. And though postwar development peppered the city with some undistinguished modernist buildings, more recent experiments in high-tech architecture, such as the Gherkin, have given the city a new gloss.
