Sound Check: Citizen Cope still amazed at his journey WITH VIDEO
It's been 10 years since Clarence Greenwood started releasing albums under his stage name, Citizen Cope. And six albums in, he finds the journey so far to be "pretty amazing."
"I look back sometimes at how I did this and this and that," Greenwood, 44, says. "I think it's been one small step at a time, and I think everything you learn, and you make mistakes and you have failures and people say 'no' and people say 'yes' ... It's all such a journey and an adventure that it can go by in the blink of an eye.
"But when you really look back at it, it's been 10 years. A lot has happened in that time."
Most of those have been good things, too. Many of Cope's songs — including "Sideways," "Nite Becomes Day," "Pablo Picasso," "Bullet and a Target" and "Let the Drummer Kick" — have been licensed to a wide array of films and TV shows; the latter was even used for a routine during the third season of "So You Think You Can Dance." All of that has helped Cope attain wider recognition, and his latest album, this year's "One Lovely Day," reached a career high No. 39 on the Billboard 200 chart.
"Obviously things have changed in my life," says the Memphis-born Greenwood, who was with the hip-hop group Basehead before opting for the singer-songwriter route. "You have this sense of ... what appears to be recognition or whatever. On a day-to-day basis, it's different. It goes up and down.
"Your challenge to continue to make music is always the same — you're always trying to write a great song. That's what's important; you're always trying to do something right, and these other things come into play sometimes that are part of the (business) and can be difficult to maneuver around sometimes. But I've consistently been able to reach new people without becoming, like a big can of pop or something, so that's very satisfying."
Citizen Cope and Charlie Mars perform Saturday, Nov. 17, at the Royal Oak Music Theatre, 318 W. Fourth St. Doors open at 7:30 p.m. Tickets are $25, $30 day of show. Call 248-399-2980 or visit www.royaloakmusictheatre.com.

Parallel Programming
Posted 23 February 2007 - 12:13 PM
With the recent news about Intel showing off its Terascale 80 core chip, and the latest NVidia GPUs having 128 cores, all of which are becoming more general purpose by the week (so it seems), I decided to have a look at the parallel programming literature... seems like nobody has really found a convincing way yet of automatically parallelising an arbritrary program.
I've read about stuff like SDKs that provide pre-programmed parallelism, and transactional programming at a hardware level... although both sound useful, neither of these approaches seem to fit the bill when considering systems that may contain thousands or even millions of processing cores.
I've also read something somewhere that said progress in computing (at least from a software perspective) could grind to a halt five years from now if nobody can find a solution to this problem. There wouldn't seem to be much point in providing thousands of processing cores if nobody can figure out how to program them.
So what do you guys think about such things? Do you think it's insurmountable? Are most programs just inherently serial and can't be realistically parallelised? Or has someone got some cunning ideas?

Err right? Where did you hear that? Probably a sloppy journalist.
They have 128 "Stream Processors". They are not equivalent to a core at all!
Even the groups of them (of which it only has 8 of) aren't equivalent to a separate core because of the lack of control.
The 80 intel chip isn't really usable now either, just a proof of concept.
I dont understand why you post these vague (shallow) questions. You'd get more insight reading a book, or looking on wikipedia or just reading the first few search results on google.

Dave I think we're just here for different reasons and if you don't like my questions then please just don't reply to them.
Posted 23 February 2007 - 03:03 PM
So in order for you to fish out opinion, first you must 'seed' an opinion. True, you have 'provoked' some of us with your question(s) but what about you? what do you think is going to happen in 5 years in respect to parallel processing? Do you think such problems are insurmountable?
I don't think anything is insurmountable, given time. I don't think everything can be parallel-ized to the point that there would be 1 core per 1 binary instruction. I believe that we're moving in the right direction with distributed systems, among other ways to achieve parallelism.
Posted 23 February 2007 - 03:48 PM
By shallow I mean you haven't shown any depth in understanding the subject. Not least with the "facts" you presented. The questions you ask aren't really debatable. They've been solved a long time ago. Sure, 'average' programmers don't know to do it but they need to learn.
This isn't a new topic highly parallel machines have existed for decades. They just weren't available on the desktop.
Its well know that its difficult to achieve more than 25% efficiency on a parallel machine. The software effort to make things go faster often isn't worth it. By the time you've made it more efficient, you could have just bought a faster computer. So far this hasn't changed. It might in future.
Here's a interesting read about valve's approach

Nope, and I doubt this will ever (well. for a long time) be possible to do automatically for arbitrary programs...it would require too much 'intelligence' on the part of a tool. Programmers will have to write their programs for parallelism, not write them serially and depend on tools to make them parallel. It's kind of like writing a program in procedural C and wanting a tool to convert to well-designed object-oriented code...not going to happen.
Many programs that exist today are indeed inherently serial. However, the problems that those programs solve frequently aren't. It's possible to write many, many things in a parallel way, but you may have to spend some time thinking about it to see how.
You hit the nail on the head here. Most programmers still aren't used to thinking parallel and this is one of the major obstacles to concurrent program development. I expect concurrent thinking will eventually be taught in intro CS courses and programming books as a basic concept like loops and functions. (And built-in language support for concurrency, like Java has to some extent, will go a long way toward making this easier.)
Of course...most computer users still just run one application at a time and use their computer for word processing, browsing the web, watching videos, and so forth. Multiprocessors are never going to be a great advantage here; they can help a bit, but in these cases the majority of the CPU time is spent waiting for the user anyway. (At least until we get AI operating systems capable of speech and gesture processing!)
Posted 23 February 2007 - 05:43 PM
DonBerto... give a little get a little.... that's a good point well taken, I'll try to elucidate my thinking a bit more.
Right, so given an arbritrary program, what are the difficulties involved in having the compiler scan the code, figuring out which bits are dependent on others, which bits are independent and thus capable of being parallalised, and inserting sequence points to make sure everything stays synchronised?
Would creating programs using a much finer granularity of objects help, where the objects can run independently and the cores would communicate the object mesages? Could that be automatically synchronised?
Perhaps there might be language constructs to help, eg:
parallel for(x=0;x<1000;x++)
parallel for(y=0;y<1000;y++)
which is a simple example that can obviously be done manually by launching threads but a language construct would make it simpler.
Anyway I'm writing this at the office, my brain is shutting down faster than Windows ever has and it's time for home... ;-)

I wrote a couple of articles on multi-core for games, but focusing more on the current generation of 2-4 core CPUs.

dave_ said:
Your 25% number is a little specious. Game engines generally process a large number of atomic objects, which is a great candidate for parallization, especially in physics and graphics. AI is harder, but you can also do the approach of pipelining when moving from 1 to 2 cores. You could easily get a 50% improvement at least on a game engine in less that a month's work.

parallel for(x=0;x<1000;x++) { parallel for(y=0;y<1000;y++) { dosomehorrendouslycomplicatedtask(x,y) } }
However, using this feature has a cost: The compiler needs ages to compile if you enable this optimization feature, and to get good result out of it you have to hint the compiler about the loop in various ways (minimum tripcount, tripcount is always a multiple of x ect).
Posted 24 February 2007 - 04:56 PM
#pragma omp parallel { #pragma omp for for(int i = 1; i < size; ++i) x[i] = (y[i-1] + y[i+1])/2; }

The trouble is those facts where what you used to formulate your hypothesis so its not just pedantry.
Well, I've done a few courses on parallel processing, even worked on projects (in a paid job) where the server was on a cluster and worked on PS2/PS3, Xbox360, so I do have a little insight.
The trouble is, this is a huge subject. What can I hope to say of any worth in a few sentences here?
With many good books. I'd suggest you read one. For starting I'd recommend Tanenbaum but it is a bit dry. Its a good reference when combined with some other forms/sources of learning.
GPGPU stuff is great... I seriously doubt they'll become fully programmable cores. If they were why would you not just use a second main CPU? More likely is that main CPU will gain special vector units like 286/386 gained integrated FPU.
I'm sure they'll keep their specialist pipelines and complement traditional CPUs for many years to come.
However what if we were to take in further and put an FPGA into a PC. Now that would be interesting. You could re-configure it for every app for a special pipeline and get some interesting parallel computation done.

Data center code is not the same as game code. And it's worth noting that even essentially single CORE processor systems like the PS2 don't ever do anything like their theoretical FLOPS throughput, mostly due to cache issues.
Of course there are problems trying to reach the maximum efficiency. It will vary by application. 25% just seems rather low - perhaps that is reflecting just attempting to scale an existing single threaded application. A rendering engine targeting a 1024+ core machine should be able to get way higher than that.

It looks to me like things are heading that way. You must know about CUDA right? And it wouldn't make them just another processor by any means. They're stream processors, with their own strengths and weaknesses.

Well before they amassed fans around the world, Miguel, Elle Varner, Luke James and Stacy Barthe were fans of each other, collaborating on various projects through the years. Now the crew is combining forces in a loose collective they're calling Nouveau Noir or the "new black."
Stacy, who released her P.S. I Love You EP on Valentine's Day, tells the Singersroom, "These are the people who are into art, into fashion, into music, you know anything having to do with art, we're the artsy kids."
Nouveau Noir is all about inclusion, opening its circle to anyone who wants to be involved. The collective promotes uninhibited self-expression through music -- a philosophy that Stacy has built her career on. "I created my own little corner in the world and that's just me," says Stacy, who's written for everyone from Britney Spears to Diddy and Rihanna.
Most recently, Stacy released her P.S. I Love You single "Hell Yeah!" featuring Rick Ross.

ASU basketball ranked among top 15 most watchable teams
Originally published: Jan 11, 2013 - 7:01 pm
With that said, Valley fans will take a nod in their direction any which way they can get it at this point.
Through 16 games, the ASU Sun Devils are off to their best start since 2007-08, when James Harden and Co. raced out to an identical 14-2 record. While the road will get tougher for Herb Sendek's squad following Thursday's third straight win in Pac-12 play against Oregon State, it's never a bad thing to get a little national attention.
For their surprising sprint out of the gates this season, the Sun Devils came in at No. 6 on Giles' list.
Under coach Herb Sendek, the ASU offense historically had been a dull exercise in arranging five pieces of statuary around the halfcourt�and then guard Jahii Carson showed up. Carson, ruled ineligible by the NCAA last year, has been as good as advertised. Streaky from the perimeter, he has quite possibly the quickest first step in D1, and he has readily assumed the role of orchestrating the break.Through the non-conference slate, ASU used 72 possessions per game�a brisk pace for any team, let alone a Sendek bunch. A quarter of Carson's assists were handed out in transition, and his teammates, like Carrick Felix, have benefited. Before this season, Felix was known primarily for being the first junior college player ever to get a Duke scholarship offer, but after 13 games, Felix is now making a name for himself as a slasher filling the right wing (and scoring 1.4 points per fast break).
In addition to the play of Carson and Felix, junior center Jordan Bachynski has been much-improved at the offensive end, averaging 10.5 points and 7.3 rebounds per game heading into Sunday's road clash against Oregon. Bachynski also is third in the nation with 4.5 blocked shots per game.
ASU wasn't the only local team to make the weekly list. Despite a 5-10 start, NAU came in behind the Sun Devils at No. 8.

President Barack Obama yesterday nominated Mary Jo White, a former Southern District U.S. Attorney and now a partner at Debevoise & Plimpton as the next chair of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
White, 65, a white-collar defense lawyer, has been at Debevoise since 2002. Her nomination to lead the Securities & Exchange Commission brought high praise from practitioners who said she would bring a balanced and fair approach to the job based on her prosecutorial and defense experience, a background that brought incredible visibility to Debevoise & Plimpton's litigation department.
Mary Jo White, a partner at Debevoise & Plimpton and a former U.S. attorney, speaks at the White House yesterday after President Barack Obama announced he had chosen her as the next chair of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
NEWSCOM/Larry Downing
"She brought to Debevoise a tremendous ability to attract very high quality business and did attract very high quality business," said Patricia Hynes, senior counsel at Allen & Overy who focuses on complex securities, commercial and criminal matters. "People generate business in large part based on reputation and she had a great reputation, and clients came to her."
White has been chair of the firm's litigation department, helping bring in many clients including Bank of America CEO Ken Lewis and JPMorgan Chase.
She was such a draw to clients that the firm had to hire a legal assistant whose job it was to respond to all the people who wanted to hire her, said litigation cochair John Kiernan. "I would say she's been one of the top 10 most in demand lawyers in America," he said.
She also attracted talent. Among those she bought to the firm were litigators Paul Berger, Helen Cantwell, Matthew Fishbein, Andrew Ceresney, James Johnson and former federal judge and U.S. Attorney Michael Mukasey.
Some attorneys questioned how Debevoise could fill her role.
"It's a huge challenge for them," said one securities partner at a New York firm who declined to be identified. "She ran it. She was the most visible person in the firm in the litigation space. She has credibility that few others can hope to achieve. Anytime you have a person like that who is a real leader and who is the face of the entire practice, when you lose someone like that, it's a challenge to fill the position."
But Hynes and other defense lawyers said that Debevoise's litigation department is full of talent.

Description*Race Ignitor Kit Not Shown
Our Camshafts are made from the highest quality Billet and CNC machine ground to perfection. Most Yoshimura camshafts are designed for our race teams, and in turn that design gets passed down to our customers for the best power gains. These camshafts come with shims, to achieve proper valve spring pressure, so no valve float occurs. *Cam sprockets are not installed on the camshafts. Cam timing should be set by a certified mechanic to ensure proper function. Improper installation or cam timing could result in catastrophic engine failure.

It would be cool if there was a forum dedicated for getting help on writing tutorial/article. With such a forum, it would be possible to ask some peoples to read our article/tutorial to get feedback and clarify some things before officially posting it to the general public.
This is just an example. Like I once said that I was writing a Neural Network related articles, which unfortunately got delayed(had less time, files got deleted....but it's still coming). I don't write articles about something I don't completely understand, and by such, I asked for help about the Back Propagation algorithm. I asked for help in this forum(Suggestions & Feedback) but it is not really the best place. And by such, I suggest to create a new forum dedicated at helping building articles/tutorials. I think it would encourage people to write articles/tutorials, and it might even enhance the quality of such things. I know that this site is dedicated for devlopment in general, but I think it's something that is missing in most development site.

perhaps you would volunteer to moderate that forum ???

If Prolog is the answer, what is the question ?
Posted 30 January 2004 - 09:33 PM
Yes, I might help to moderate that forum, but as I said on another post, I'm rather computerless right now. I will try to help out in any way I can.
Posted 31 January 2004 - 05:52 AM
Nice idea. Instead of creating a new forum, how about renaming the "Suggested Articles/Tutorials" (since it's hardly ever used) to "Article Feedback & Suggested Articles"?
Posted 01 February 2004 - 06:15 PM
That would be a good start. And even though free time has become something rare for me, I am volunteering to moderate the "Article Feedback & Suggested Articles", but also to help peoples with their articles too.
Posted 06 February 2004 - 06:15 AM
Just in case you didn't notice, the forum title has changed so that it now serves as a platform for article help as well as suggestions.
Thanks for your suggestion.

Since Dr. Barretto will be involved in conducting the IAEA Nuclear Energy Management School, which will take place at Texas A&M University from March 18th through April 5th, there will be no Paulo's Corner during this time.
Canadian nuclear suppliers are undertaking a trade mission to the United Kingdom next week. Ten companies that supply parts and services to CANDU reactors are hoping to pick up some of the work that's being created as Britain expands its nuclear program. The Organization of Canadian Nuclear Industries represents almost 200 companies and about 30,000 workers that supply parts and services to the CANDU fleet of reactors. The organization has held trade missions in the past to Romani...
Catastrophic nuclear accidents, like Chernobyl in 1986 or Fukushima No. 1 in 2011, are very rare, we're incessantly told, and their probability of occurring infinitesimal. But when they do occur, they get costly. So costly that the French government, when it came up with cost estimates, kept them secret. But now the report was leaked to the French magazine, Le Journal de Dimanche. Turns out, the upper end of the cost spectrum of an accident at a single reactor at the plant chosen for the stud...
Commenting on Iranian plans to submit a written promise to the United Nations that it will not seek to develop nuclear bombs, the diplomats told Xinhua on condition of anonymity that the promise made no sense without substantial step to meet the world's concerns. The diplomats urge Tehran to increase the transparency of its nuclear program, to meet the demands of the P5+1 countries, namely China, US, Britain, Russia, France, Germany, and to cooperate with the UN nuclear watchdog to clarif...
....Pakistan has taken its responsibility for nuclear security seriously. It has collaborated with the United States on best practices, training, and personnel screening. It is participating in international forums devoted to preventing nuclear terrorism and improving nuclear security. It has made strides domestically to improve the legal and regulatory system for preventing proliferation of sensitive materials and technologies. Not least, the authorities in Pakistan, the first Islamic countr...
British Defense Secretary Philip Hammond on Thursday said the United Kingdom still needs its nuclear deterrent, the London Daily Telegraph reported. Hammond made his comments during a trip to Scotland, where the governing Scottish National Party hopes that a 2014 vote on independence will allow for ejection of British Vanguard-class submarines and Trident ballistic missiles now housed in the country. There is also an ongoing debate on whether the United Kingdom needs to move ahead with a ...
A U.S. House of Representatives panel on Thursday passed new legislation to ensure the nation is in compliance with two international nuclear security agreements, but it does not address points of contention from an earlier draft blocked in the Senate last year. The bill would complete U.S. ratification of the International Convention for the Suppression of Acts of Nuclear Terrorism. The pact, which entered into force in 2007 and now has 84 states parties, requires member nations to crimin...
"I'm cautiously optimistic that we will find a way because there is interest in both sides in continuing important aspects of this cooperation," said Andrew Weber, Defense undersecretary for acquisition, technology and logistics on matters related to WMD defense programs. The Nunn-Lugar Cooperative Threat Reduction program since 1991 has supplied Russia with substantive U.S. financial and technical assistance for eliminating and securing aging nuclear warheads, chemical warfare material...
Construction has officially begun on a new reactor at the Vogtle power plant in Georgia. It is the second AP1000 construction to start in America this week. Some 5350 cubic metres of concrete were poured to form the basemat for the nuclear portion of Vogtle 3. It will support the reactor itself and buildings to shield it and house fuel handling facilities and auxiliary equipment. First concrete at Vogtle 3 came just four days after the same milestone at VC Summer 2 - the first of two A...
New York utility regulators on Thursday approved a proposal to seek 1,350 megawatts (MW) of generation or transmission later in March to keep the power grid reliable in case Entergy Corp's Indian Point nuclear power plant is closed. The New York Public Service Commission (PSC) staff said that if the 2,037-MW plant shuts in 2015 when its last reactor operating license expires, the additional power would be needed by the summer of 2016. The PSC said it was not taking a position on wheth...
Contrary to statements by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that the moment of truth concerning Iran's nuclear program was spring 2013, Obama said that the US estimates that Iran can produce a bomb only in about a year given its current rate of progress. "There is a window, not an infinite period of time, a window of time where we can resolve this diplomatically," Obama said. "Right now we think that it would take over a year or so for Iran to actually develop a nuclear weapon, but we obvi...
A research team led by Prof. Yoshiaki Oka of Waseda University has succeeded in developing a conceptual nuclear power reactor design of high plutonium breeding by light-water cooling for the first time in the world. The team devised a new fuel assembly where fuel rods are closely packed for reducing a reactor coolant to a fraction of fuel volume for high breeding. Prof. Oka succeeded in high plutonium breeding by light-water cooling through computational analysis..... High breeding with wa...
The European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) is to provide a €300 million ($388 million) loan to bring all of Ukraine's operating nuclear power reactors in line with modern safety standards. The total cost for the program to bring all of Ukraine's 15 operating nuclear reactors into line with both international standards and local regulations is estimated at €1.4 billion ($1.8 billion). Euratom, the European Atomic Energy Community, is also to provide €300 million directly to th...
ROOM FOR DEBATE: North Korea's recent nuclear test was followed by a threat that it might "exercise the right to a pre-emptive nuclear attack to destroy the strongholds of the aggressors." Some prominent South Koreans have called for U.S. tactical weapons to be returned to South Korea, and some believe that a South Korean nuclear arsenal is the only way to negotiate a "grand bargain" with Pyongyang. North Korean threats must be countered by Washington and Seoul, but not by the U.S. deploying ...
North Korea on Wednesday dismissed South Korea's claim that the armistice agreement remains valid, arguing that the South is not qualified to discuss the matter. "The (South Korean) puppets that worked as a tool for America and drove the Korean Peninsula to the brink of war should not be shamelessly discussing the current problem," the Rodong Sinmun, the daily of the North's ruling Workers' Party, said. "Furthermore, the South Korean puppets are not even the directly involved party in the ...
After two Korea-U.S. joint military drills end, American vessels equipped with nuclear weapons will stay in South Korean waters to fully guarantee the U.S. "nuclear umbrella" in case North Korea attacks. A high-ranking South Korean government official told the JoongAng Ilbo yesterday, "If North Korea makes a nuclear attack, retaliation can come from U.S. nuclear weapons stationed in Okinawa or Guam. But considering the time that might take, we need to have a nuclear weapon near the Korean ...
The Bush administration established the Proliferation Security Initiative in May 2003 with the goal of fostering a greater worldwide capability to stop the illicit movement of materials that can be used to produce biological, chemical, and nuclear weapons. At present, 102 nations have signed on to the effort. Participating nations pledge to exchange information about suspected illicit WMD transfers and to take action to interdict unconventional weapons and related materials as they move t...
As of early 2013, the United States has continued to reduce its nuclear stockpile, and retirement alone has accounted for a dip of over 250 warheads since last year. Of the total stockpile of approximately 4,650 warheads, an estimated 2,150 warheads are deployed. The arsenal is composed of roughly 1,950 strategic warheads deployed with approximately 800 missiles and bombers, as well as nearly 200 nonstrategic warheads deployed in Europe. In this article, the authors scrutinize the US nuclear ...
Senators requested a national intelligence assessment of foreign nations' abilities to protect their nuclear weapons from digital strikes after the Pentagon's chief cyber officer said he does not know whether China, Russia or other nuclear powers, aside from the United States, have effective safeguards in place. What's more, the resiliency of most U.S. nuclear systems against a nuclear strike is untested, a new Defense Science Board report concluded. Gen. Robert Kehler, chief of U.S....
Electricite de France SA won environmental permits for its planned atomic power plant at Hinkley Point in Somerset, which will be the first new reactor to be built in Britain in more than two decades. EDF obtained the three main permits required from the U.K. Environment Agency, the company said today in a statement. They govern control of emissions, cooling water and liquid waste discharges from the Hinkley Point C plant, as well as safe disposal of small amounts of low-level radioactive...

After four years in which he has alternately helped -- and miffed -- the White House, Vice President Joe Biden told CNN that his role as the deal-closer is clearly his most comfortable yet.
"I have spent a lot of time in this town. And I have personal relationships with people I strongly disagree with, but there's trust. And so I'm a logical person, a logical person to, as they say or you guys say, close the deal," Biden told CNN chief political analyst Gloria Borger in an exclusive pre-inaugural interview.
Biden cut the last-minute deal last month with Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell that averted going over the fiscal cliff -- after President Barack Obama's negotiations with House Speaker John Boehner failed. He was given the high-profile task of putting together the administration's sweeping gun control proposals and will play a major role in pushing them through Congress.
He is quick to emphasize that he was not undercutting the president when he reached deals with congressional Republicans.
"I have his complete support for what I'm saying, because I know what he wants, No. 1," Biden said. "It's the president, not me."
Obama and the vice president ran against each other for the 2008 Democratic nomination, and Biden said that helped forge a relationship.
"So when we got into this deal, we didn't have what other administrations have had, where the vice president and the president have a different take on the major issues of the day. We're totally simpatico," Biden said.
He told Borger that he never had any problem with any assignment he was given in the first term, when he was tasked with overseeing the $787 billion stimulus program, cutting several key fiscal deals with congressional Republicans once they took control of the House of Representatives in the midterms and leading the effort to end the U.S. military presence in Iraq.
In the second term, one of his major duties will be to help get congressional approval for the most far-reaching gun control legislation in decades. After dozens of meetings with more than 120 groups spanning the various issues related to gun violence, he led the inter-agency effort that came up with the specific proposals.
Biden and Obama know they will have to mount a major public relations campaign to try to overcome the strength and opposition of the National Rifle Association.

6PM UPDATE: King Outlines Legislative Session
By: Brittany Pelletz
Updated: January 12, 2009
State Representative Susan King, R-District 71, of Abilene spent the day outlining her goals with KRBC.
While she clearly has her own bills on her mind, such as the Janie De La Paz bill, seeking harsher punishments for drive-by shootings and even additional police training to handle drive by crimes, she also highlighted three specific things as perhaps the most important to Abilene. That begins with education and the importance of our school systems from the very beginning to higher level education as they are the future.
Some other key issues on Representative King's mind is the wind energy business we have in the Big Country along with the oil and gas industry.
She also discussed the future water supply for Abilene from the Cedar Ridge reservoir.

Yuyao Mobile Software, a leading mobile application developer, has reinforced its commitment to users by updating its much-praised PDF Reader Pro with an intuitive design to the application's interface and various innovative features. PDF Reader Pro, universally available to iPhones and iPads, has piled up an impressive 240,000 downloads from Apple's App Store worldwide to this date.
Tainan, Taiwan (PRWEB) December 10, 2012
Yuyao Mobile Software, a leading mobile application developer, has released the latest update to PDF Reader Pro. Yuyao Mobile Software has reinforced its commitment to users by renovating its much-praised PDF Reader Pro with an intuitive design to the application's interface and various innovative features. Rising above its competition, Yuyao Mobile Software distinguishes itself by providing continuous support to its users. As the Company's most eminent productivity application in the Apple's App Store, PDF Reader Pro has received accolades and been recognized by professionals for its versatile functionality. The recent inclusion of PDF Reader Pro in Apps Store's @Work: Apps for Business marked Yuyao's tremendous success in the mobile business and productivity application arena.
With the latest update to PDF Reader Pro, Yuyao Mobile Software attempts to draw a line to separate excellence from good. PDF Reader Pro provides users with the ability to effortlessly and efficiently render large documents, convert different file formats into PDFs, mark and annotate files with convenient tools, and fill PDF forms. However, Yuyao's vision for remarkable productivity applications makes the list of seemingly complete functions obsolete. "We don't want to just throw another reader app to the market, which I believe is exactly what our competition's been working on. We want our users to be able to say "this is it! I don't have to look any further!" And that, let me tell you, is a heck of a difficult task", commented Erwin Lin, Executive Vice President of Yuyao Mobile Software.
The new version of PDF Reader Pro provides a new file browsing mode. The quick view feature is designed to bring users efficiency in rummaging through an archive of files. The various newly added toolbars allow users to easily access their files and efficiently handle them, whether it is user's intent to email, convert the files into PDFs, or save them to the cloud storage. The file management system in the application is enhanced to make PDF Reader Pro not just a reader, but rather a complete mobile file management application.
"When you look at the market filled with reader applications, you wonder how users make a wise decision. Knowing budget users most likely would only want to spend one time to get a reader app that serves all their purposes, we know we need to keep working hard to satisfy that kind of never-ending need. We are confident that PDF Reader Pro is the one and only choice for users who count on responsible developers like Yuyao to constantly address their needs," said Kenny Su, CEO of Yuyao Mobile Software.
The latest version of this universal app is currently available for iPhone and iPad on the App Store for $5.99.

More than two-thirds of the final number of cardinals must agree on the next pope. The announcement that a decision has been made will come in the form of a puff of white smoke emerging from a chimney in the Vatican.
Benedict will hold a final audience in Vatican City's St. Peter's Square on February 27, but the church is not planning a formal ceremony to mark the pope's departure, Lombardi said.
The pontiff, born Joseph Ratzinger, will first go by helicopter to the pope's summer residence in Castel Gandolfo, Lombardi said.
He could remain at Castel Gondolfo until the end of April or early May while the works to ready a new residence for him in a monastery within the Vatican are completed, Lombardi said. Once there, he will devote himself to a life of reflection and prayer.
Lombardi told reporters that the pope's decision shouldn't be seen only as negative, but rather as a lucid and responsible choice that he had taken for the good of the Church.
Benedict wants the new pontiff to have the physical and moral vigor necessary to take on the necessary reforms of the Church, Lombardi said, adding that it will be up to the new pope and the cardinals to establish their priorities.
Benedict's decision to remain in Vatican City has a practical as well as a spiritual motivation, he said.
His presence will enable him to support his successor and the rest of the clergy, Lombardi said, although he dismissed the idea that Benedict would interfere as the new pope takes charge.
The last pope to step down before his death was Gregory XII, who in 1415 quit to end a civil war within the church in which more than one man claimed to be pope.

McKinney dentists provide free dental care to more than 200 residents in need
Photo courtesy of Noble Strategic Partners - Patients from McKinney and surrounding areas within the Metroplex received much-needed treatment, such as Cameron McCurry, right, who broke his front tooth six months ago while playing basketball. McCurry showed off his new smile with Dr. Aaron Wood at the free dental day on Saturday, Feb. 16
By Staff report
Dentists and staff from McKinneyDentist.com provided free dental care to more than 200 community members in need on Saturday, Feb. 16 as part of their 16th annual Free Dentistry Day.
McKinneyDentist.com treated individuals in need of care on a first-come, first-served basis. Community members started lining up outside the dental office Friday evening to receive care.
A team of 45 volunteers and 11 dentists treated patients around the clock. Dentists provided more than $100,000 in free dental services - ranging from extractions and fillings to root canals - to individuals who otherwise would not have access to basic dental care.
Dave Arndt, ministry director and president/pastor of Restoration Ministry in Quinlan, an organization that helps individuals who suffered from substance abuse get back on their feet, brought 10 men to the event.
"Many of the men at Restoration Ministry had been complaining of toothaches for months and were in dire need of dental care," said Arndt. "Following their treatments, the men expressed their gratefulness to the dentists and staff, saying the care they received was a major stepping stone in helping to turn their lives around."
"This was my first time to participate in Free Dentistry Day and I'm extremely grateful that I made the trip from my hometown of Midlothian to McKinney," said patient Jean Gibson. "Words cannot express the gratitude I have for the dentists and their staff who volunteered their time to ensure more members of our community have access to basic dental care."
McKinneyDentist.com, a Heartland Dental Care affiliate, provides general, cosmetic, and restorative dentistry for patients in the McKinney, Texas area. For information, visit mckinneydentist.com.

Victim grateful to good Samaritan in Highland Park
7/7/12 Highland Park On June 30, a Highwood resident(HP native) Brian Sugarman (right) was attacked by two men trying who tried to rob him outside his business, Macnician, a computer support company. Next door, Tony Savino (middle), the manager at Piero's Pizza heard Sugarman yelling and honking his horn. Savino ran outside to help. He kicked the car door into the two attackers who dropped the laptop and cell phone and fled. Piero's driver BrianMacFarlane (left) made a 911 call and the thieves were later picked up by police. The three are shown outside their places of buisness where the crime happened. | Tamara Bell~Sun Times Media
TIME AND DATE: 9:15 p.m. May 30
LOCATION: Broadview just north of Roger Williams Avenue in Highland Park's Ravinia Business District.
CHARGES: Three men face felony aggravated robbery charges.

Updated: August 13, 2012 7:01AM
HIGHLAND PARK -- Highland Park native Brian Sugarman fought back, yelled for help and frantically honked his car horn when two attackers converged on him at 9:15 p.m. May 30 outside his Ravinia Business District shop.
Seconds later, Tony Savino, the manager at Piero's Pizza next-door, bolted outside to help. Showing no fear, he ran straight at the attackers and kicked Sugarman's driver's side door, smashing the attackers between the door and the side of the car.
The impact forced the men to drop Sugarman's laptop computer, iPhone and wallet. They fled in a waiting car, but didn't get too far north on Green Bay Road before Highland Park police reeled them in with the help of descriptions from the scene.
"They said 'Give me your wallet; it's not worth getting killed over a wallet,'" Sugarman said, before recalling the even more scary sound of a gun cock-back seconds later. "I consider myself very fortunate, and Tony is responsible for that. I owe him big time."
The nightmare scenario all went down outside of Sugarman's Apple computer repair shop and consulting company, Macnician, which he opened nearly one year ago at 651 Roger Williams Ave.
Sugarman, who graduated from Highland Park High School in 2002 and now lives in Highwood, explained that it was always his dream to open a business in his hometown.
Despite the harrowing experience, his opinion of Highland Park and the Ravinia neighborhood hasn't changed a bit.
"Highland Park is a safe place," he said. "I don't want anyone to think this isn't a safe place to shop or live. I haven't changed the way I run my store. This type of thing happens everywhere once in awhile. I just think I was in the wrong place at the wrong time.
"For a few days I was pretty upset about it, and rightfully so, because the situation could have gone a lot of ways."
Sugarman typically isn't at his shop around 9 p.m., but he returned late on May 30 to check on a project he was working on earlier in the day. The attack occurred when he returned to his car.
"They pulled my car door open," he recalled, and ordered him to give them "everything I had. I refused and we began to struggle. One was trying to hold me while the other was going through my pockets."
Sugarman began to yell and honk the horn, as he knew Saviano was inside the pizza place.
"I heard the gun cock back; that's when Tony ran out and slammed my car door into them," Sugarman said.
Both Sugarman and Saviano said they'd likely handle the situation differently if they knew a gun was involved from the start.
"If I had to do it again, I probably wouldn't struggle," Sugarman said. "I can't tell anyone how to act in that kind of situation. If a gun was pointed at my head, I wouldn't have acted that way. People act the way they act in a moment. I didn't know they had a gun 'til later."
Savino remembers Sugarman yelling "Help, they're going to kill me."
"It was a friend of mine calling out that he needed help," Saviano said of his business neighbor. "I didn't really think. I thought about it afterwards. I didn't see a gun, but I learned later they did have one."
The gun was found inside the vehicle when police tracked the alleged attackers down on Green Bay Road.
The Lake County State's Attorney later approved felony charges of aggravated robbery against Luccien Hurt, 42, of the 1900 block of 10th Avenue, Maywood; Antoine Hotchkiss, 34, of the 500 block of North St. Louis Avenue, Chicago, and Parnell Squire, 44, of the 3200 block of West Crystal Street, Chicago.
For their gutsy response, Highland Park Police Chief Paul Shafer and the City Council recognized Sugarman, Savino and another Piero's Pizza employee on June 25 for their "outstanding civic action."
"We never know when we may be jolted out of our routine and called to act," Shafer said. "Needless to say this was an extremely dangerous situation Mr. Savino, Mr. (Brian) McFarlane and Mr. Sugarman found themselves in and we commend them for their courage."

HGTV.com HGTV Message Boards Decorating General Decorating Need new mattress - suggestions needed please |
Go | New | Find | Notify | Tools | Reply |
My bed (king size) finally came. I need to buy a mattress for it. Went to one store and my how things have changed since I last bought a mattress. Not just springs and coils or Sealyham and Serra anymore. Now memory foam, latex, air etc. Looked at therapedic - of course the one I like is 10k plus an extra 4 if I wanted it to be adjustable. What about the sleep number bed? Anyone with that one? I like a firm mattress. I don't get consumer reports so I don't know which ones they rated highly. | |||
I know people like the sleep number bed but...I hate it. I have never been comfortable in that bed. Never could find the right number. I want a new bed but don't want to spend more money on another bed. Sigh | ||||
Sometimes too many choices can make one's head spin and in the case of a mattress where sleep is vital and the cost can be high, it's even more daunting. BTW, I've been "burned" by CR in the past so I take them w/ a grain of salt. Seeking opinions from consumers themselves vs. "test kitchens" may be your best source. Check out web links that offer them such as Epinions.com Also, take a "test drive" in a store that has many brands on display.This message has been edited. Last edited by: Froo Froo, | ||||
Also look at the return policy and take it seriously. Don't let a salesperson tell you something different. What's in writing will stand. Some will take the mattress back before 30, 60, or perhaps 90 days, but YOU have to bring it back OR pay to have them come with a truck to take it back. Some may not take it back at all, or may charge a restocking fee because it's no longer "new". Many of the memory foam mattresses, whether toppers or mattresses, hold heat. There is a new one out that is supposed to better regulate body temperature. Don't know how that works. Sleep Number beds--the lower end ones without all those toppers and padding they add at the higher end--feel like an air mattress to me. . | ||||
I have a sleep number bed. I hated it at first but now I love it. | ||||
I just tried posting a url to the Mattress Expert (Peter Cancelli) who gives really good advice but HGTV doesn't allow me to post pictures or urls (or even smilies above) anymore for some weird reason. Others do it, so I am alone. I suggest you google this site. You can ask a question and he will respond. I have purchased 2 mattresses from his suggestions and have always been pleased. Ours is a Stearns and Foster. Always remember, you pay for what you get. A mattress is something you use more than anything else in your life -- make it a good purchase -- don't skimp. | ||||
With memory foam and latex, be aware of the chemical fumes AND the overexposure to Latex (fast becoming a large allergy in the US). Can cause illness in some chemical sensitive people. Too bad they don't let you spend the night on the mattress in the store! lol some do not have return policy. Quite the conversation here about this topic. http://ths.gardenweb.com/forum...011427182902.html?67 (link icon not working) Mary Ruth *****We don't see things as they are, we see things as WE are! ***** (Anaias Nin)***** http://pinterest.com/mary_ruth/ | ||||
We purchased our mattress from our Relax the Back store. We chose their proprietary brand, "Pure Fit," which is a memory foam mattress much like Tempurpedic but doesn't retain body heat as much as Tempurpedic (which they also sell). We've had it for two years and absolutely LOVE it. It has made sleeping on other mattresses very difficult. Selecting a mattress is a very personal matter, so what is wonderful for one person may not be for the next. However, you just need to go try them, and allow 10-15 minimum before formulating an opinion. A generous return policy is also a must. Good luck on your search for the perfect mattress. ~Lady50 | ||||
Good luck with your search. I know it can seem daunting. DH and I have purchased many mattresses over the years, in search of one that would help him sleep comfortably with his back issues. We now have a Sleep Number at camp and a Tempurpedic at home. We are very, very happy with both. The Tempurpedic does hold in some body heat, but living in Maine, that can be a welcome thing. I no longer put flannel sheets on the Tempurpedic bed, but still use a down comforter. Both companies gave us the 30 day trial. It didn't take 30 days for us to be sold on either. Maine Lady | ||||
Thanks so much for the input. I do have sleep issues and prone to back and hip pains. I tend to like a firm mattress. Now that I think about it I do get hot quite a bit. I use regular sheets year round. I'm sensitive to smells. I'll pick up smells before anyone else does. Think I'll look at a spring one with a natural latex topper as my next move and see how I like that. The top of the line therapedic did feel nice but I'd hate to be out 9k if it didn't workout. These mattress people seem to always find a way to make returning it a major problem which I just as soon not deal with. Many talk of 20 year warranties but I don't event pay attention to that. Maybe I'm too cynical but I don't even trust their 30 day return option if dissatisfied. | ||||
I have a coil spring mattress - one of the S companies. I've had it 10 yrs and still get a good nite's sleep. I do flip and rotate it semi-regularly. I'm a side sleeper and needed something softer so that it's comfy when i'm sleeping on my side. ~~~becca~~~~ | ||||
