Sail-World.com : Marine snails being dissolved by ocean acidification
Marine snails being dissolved by ocean acidification
'The pteropod (marine snail) Limacina helicina antarctica which is abundant member of the Southern Ocean zooplankton community. Specimens mainly inhabit the top 200 m of oceanic waters where they graze on phytoplankton and detritus. Their shells are made of aragonite, a form of calcium carbonate that can dissolve rapidly.'
Nina Bednarsek
The shells of marine snails – known as pteropods – living in the seas around Antarctica are being dissolved by ocean acidification according to a new study published this week in the journal Nature Geoscience. These very small animals are a valuable food source for fish and birds and play an important role in the oceanic carbon cycle*.
During a science cruise in 2008, researchers from British Antarctic Survey (BAS) and the University of East Anglia (UEA), in collaboration with colleagues from the US Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), discovered severe dissolution of the shells of living pteropods in Southern Ocean waters.
The team examined an area of upwelling, where winds cause cold water to be pushed upwards from the deep to the surface of the ocean. Upwelled water is usually more corrosive to a particular type of calcium carbonate (aragonite) that pteropods use to build their shells. The team found that as a result of the additional influence of ocean acidification, this corrosive water severely dissolved the shells of pteropods.
Ocean acidification is caused by the uptake of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere emitted as a result of fossil fuel burning. A number of laboratory experiments have demonstrated the potential effect of ocean acidification on marine organisms. However, to date, there has been little evidence of such impacts occurring to live specimens in their natural environment. The finding supports predictions that the impact of ocean acidification on marine ecosystems and food webs may be significant.

Lead author, Dr. Nina Bednaršek, formerly of BAS and UEA, and now of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) says:
'We know that the seawater becomes more corrosive to aragonite shells below a certain depth — called the 'saturation horizon' — which occurs at around 1000m depth. However, at one of our sampling sites, we discovered that this point was reached at 200m depth, through a combination of natural upwelling and ocean acidification. Marine snails – pteropods — live in this top layer of the ocean. The corrosive properties of the water caused shells of live animals to be severely dissolved and this demonstrates how vulnerable pteropods are. Ocean acidification, resulting from the addition of human-induced carbon dioxide, contributed to this dissolution. '
Co-author and science cruise leader, Dr. Geraint Tarling from BAS, says:
'Although the upwelling sites are natural phenomena that occur throughout the Southern Ocean, instances where they bring the 'saturation horizon' above 200m will become more frequent as ocean acidification intensifies in the coming years. As one of only a few oceanic creatures that build their shells out of aragonite in the Polar Regions, pteropods are an important food source for fish and birds as well as a good indicator of ecosystem health. The tiny snails do not necessarily die as a result of their shells dissolving, however it may increase their vulnerability to predation and infection consequently having an impact to other parts of the food web.'
Co-author, Dr. Dorothee Bakker from the University of East Anglia, says:
'Climate models project a continued intensification in Southern Ocean winds throughout the 21st century if atmospheric carbon dioxide continues to increase. In turn, this will increase wind-driven upwelling and potentially make instances of deep water — which is under-saturated in aragonite – penetrating into the upper ocean more frequent. Current predictions are for the 'saturation horizon' for aragonite to reach the upper surface layers of the Southern Ocean by 2050 in winter and by 2100 year round. '
This research was funded by the UK Natural Environment Research Council (NERC) and the European Union Marie Curie Early Stage Training Network.
*Carbon cycle - the method by which carbon is absorbed and released by the ocean.
Upwelling: An oceanographic phenomenon that involves wind-driven motion of cooler, and usually nutrient-rich water towards the ocean surface, replacing the warmer, usually nutrient-depleted surface water.
Aragonite is a crystal form of calcium carbonate that can dissolve rapidly when its saturation in seawater falls below a threshold level. Aragonite saturation generally decreases with depth and the threshold level where dissolution occurs, called the 'saturation horizon', is usually reached at around 1000m depth. Ocean acidification has caused this horizon to shallow in modern times. It has been predicted that the saturation horizon may reach the surface across much of the Southern Ocean by 2100.
The pteropod-snail (Limacina helicina antarctica) – is the size of a pinhead (1cm), lives to depths of 200m, and is an abundant species in Southern Ocean waters.
Polar Regions are where ocean acidification effects are most likely to be seen first, since their colder temperatures mean a large susceptibility of the aragonite saturation to the absorption of anthropogenic carbon dioxide.

Using the Line6 M13 live on national radio
Like (0)
Hey, I have the Line 6 M13 for 4 years and it's one of my favorite pedals. I use it all the time and I sold my Maxon OD2 because the M13 tubescreamer sounds better.
You can hear it live in action in this vid. I use it incombination with a Brunetti Singleman amp. I use the tubescreamer, digital delay, tape echo, filter and the practical verb.
The song start on 0.18, I'm from Holland
Sounds great...what are the settings for the reverb & tape echo?
Thanks, i set the mix knob at 40 % and the tempo to 4th. Het reverb is the setting you get when you go to the effect but I set the mix to 50%. I only use that effect in the bridge and the less note at the end of the song (sorry for my bad englisch). Before I owned the M13 I had allot of expensive pedals from Voodoo Lab, MI Audio ect. But now I only use the M13, it sounds great. For solo's I use the Tube drive.
I hope line 6 comes with a update where they put the sound of the crunchtone pedal in there, I like those sounds too.
good stuff.
Stay in the mix and in the know.

There is a reason why car salesmen are universally mistrusted. That's because in some cases their job is to convince you to buy a car, regardless of whether it is the right car for you. How then do you get past their fast talk and factual flexibility to ensure you end up with a vehicle you will be happy with?
Tips for handling car salesmen: Wait and withhold
This particular piece of advice might not work on your next date, but it is an effective way to handle car salesmen. According to GenXFinance.com, giving too much away is a bad idea. If you tell car salesmen how much you have to spend and how desperate you are to find a great deal, they will eat you alive.
The trick is to maintain as much bargaining power as possible. When you tell car salesmen too much about yourself, you shift the power in their direction. Your urgency and desperation will ring like a cash register in their minds, and you'll find yourself falling for their tactics. You should also avoid discussing things like trade-ins until you've negotiated a final price.
Forget loyalty
Just because the car salesmen at one dealership are the first to let you test drive the car of your dreams doesn't mean you have to buy from them. Ask for their card, then go shopping at other dealerships to see what kinds of offers they are making. PreferredConsumer.com advises buyers to avoid a sense of obligation. You don't owe car salesmen anything.
You can, however, return to that first dealership and find out if they are willing to beat the price you were offered elsewhere. This can qualify as professional courtesy, and you're free to walk away at any time.
Research first
If you are prepared to deal with car salesmen, your experience will be far less unsettling. One of the best ways to prepare is to research the types of cars on the market. Find out what security features they offer and how much they cost. If you know that a car you really want should be priced $5,000 lower than the sticker price, you won't be taken for advantage of.
You should also have some car knowledge under your belt before you deal with car salesmen, particularly if you are a woman. The key here is to earn the respect of the salesman right from the start so he won't try to take advantage of you. Salesmen often underestimate women, so be prepared to show him what you know.

Newmarket mom arrested after children locked out in cold
Nicole Fahey, 29, of 33 Elm St., Apt. 3, was arrested on a warrant charging her with two counts of endangering the welfare of a child and two counts of possessing heroin.
The incident happened on Jan. 18 after the children, ages 6 and 10, returned home from school.
Police Chief Kevin Cyr said the children were outside crying when a neighbor saw them and called police. They were locked out of the apartment for more than hour when temperatures were about 10 degrees Fahrenheit, he said.
Officers did not locate Fahey until about 6 p.m. that evening. The drug charges were brought after officers went inside the apartment and saw heroin out in plain sight, according to Cyr.
Fahey still has custody of the children although the state Division of Children, Youth and Families is investigating, the chief said.
What's next:Fahey is to be arraigned March 5 in 10th Circuit Court, Brentwood District Division.

Today is an important day, not just for Kaminario but, we believe, for the entire enterprise storage industry. Today is the day we announce the Kaminario fourth-generation K2 all-flash storage array. What is so important about our fourth-generation product? Here are a few key points:
Breakthrough TCO: With K2 v4 we have been able to increase the density by more than 500% while cutting the price in half. Why is this so significant? Lowering the cost of enterprise-ready solid-state flash storage has been one of the long-time goals of the industry. If you believe, as we do, that solid-state is the future of Tier One storage, then it must be cost-efficient for all applications, not just those requiring the highest levels of performance. And now it is. What's more, Kaminario's TCO breakthrough extends the viability of solid-state to a new class of mid-size customers who can now afford unprecedented levels of performance, resiliency and ease of use from their storage infrastructures.
Killer Performance: Even before today's announcement Kaminario delivered by far the best performance in the industry, with world record SPC-1 results for sustained performance and price/performance. With K2 v4 we now have 400% more read/write bandwidth than our previous versions, with consistently low latency (120-microsecond writes). Topping it off, we still offer industry-leading IOPS performance. K2 v4 delivers significant across-the-board performance advantages over any other solution for any combination of workloads, be they OLTP, OLAP or virtualization. It's a level of performance consistency that is unparalleled in the industry.
Bulletproof Resiliency: Our proven SPEAR Scale-Out Architecture maintains data integrity through any type of failure. For most workloads the performance levels of our solutions will be minimally impacted—usually less than 10%. We even guarantee that degradation will max out at 25%. What's more, our snapshots are the most efficient in the storage industry, enabling instant restore and recovery from any snapshot with no impact on the performance of the production environment. Snaps can be taken in just milliseconds, 20 times faster than any legacy SAN system on the market today. We make snapshots sexy.
These are major advances in solid-state that have been more than five years in the making. They move storage technology to a whole new level. Don't just take our word for it: Take a look at the new architectural white paper or better yet, the independent report.
On a personal note, it is an important day for me, as well as for the entire team here at Kaminario. From the beginning we envisioned a new era in enterprise storage driven by solid-state flash and a true scale-out architecture. As of today, that vision is a reality. What's next? We can't wait to tell you…

Feathering my nest
Found myself obsessed with this fabric combo. Will make something lovely with it, soon, I hope.
Fabric stacking soundtrack. The music also serves to distract me from the neighbor's noisy pool, which is mere feet away from my window. Ah, suburbia.
Realized that I had the perfect spot to store/display my colanders. Happy kitchen colors! Now, I just need a rug to match…
It's the middle of July, 90 degrees outside, and I'm drinking homemade hot cocoa. Life is good. (Gorgeous quilted placemat by Jolene, from the SUTK swap)
And speaking of feathers…look who decided our hanging fern was a nice spot for a nest. Sweet mama dove is really braving it out in that nest, it gets so hot there in the afternoons.
Happy nest feathering to you!

Jill, I'm sorry. Once I laid eyes on my first colander, I was hooked. It's an illness, really. The photo shows fewer than half of my collection, and I can't rest until I find the perfect raspberry colored colander, which may not exist.

Nature's Plus Animal Parade® Children's Chewable Multi-Vitamin and Mineral Assorted Flavors -- 180 Chewable Tablets
LOVE these vitamins!
son is very picky about his vitamins yet LOVES these. They taste great
and have a nice silky mouth-feel, not at all "chalk-y" like other
animal-shaped chewables we've tried. No wonder they were given the
"Best Taste" award! I chose these because they are high-quality whole
food vitamins. I am very happy with this purchase and will continue to buy
Nature's Plus Animal Parade vitamins.
I also highly recommend Nature's Plus Animal Parade KidGreenz (see my
review). I am a big fan of Nature's Plus vitamins.

Please take out the magnesium stearate out so I can buy this procuct again.
April 25, 2013
great taste. great product
the taste is good- reminds me a bit of a sweet tart candy. my kids don't mind taking this vitamin at all. The ingredients are all natural. we are on the Feingold diet and these are a wonderful product! I highly recommend it!
April 24, 2013
Too Sour!
We were trying to get away from Flintstone gummies. All the reviews I read on these were very good. The taste is not bad at all. Just way too sour. My 3 year doesn't come running for her vitamins anymore. We've ordered same brand, vanilla flavor. Hopefully, this will having her asking for her vitamins again.
April 24, 2013
Best quality and price
I got these for my adopted daughter, whose mother was giving her some of those name brand vitamins. These are higher quality, better balanced, and less expensive. What more could I want but a healthier daughter?

- Overview
Inspired By:
The Sandbar ("Ahu o Laka") in Oahu's gorgeous Kaneohe Bay. Paddle or sail a mile offshore to this isolated and pristine white sand beach exposed only at low tide.Perfect for: Driving, boating or relaxing on the beach — lens treatments and frames are saltwater safe
Design: Sporty, semi-rimless shield for an unobstructed view, with generous coverage for protection against wind, debris and the sun's harmful rays
Shape: Large, refined rectangular wrap frame that hugs the head and complements a range of facial shapes
Care: Maui Jim case and cleaning cloth included
- Lenses
Neutral Grey: Perfect for especially bright, direct sunlight. Offers rich color and contrast along with the highest available light production, unlike ordinary grey lenses that flatten light evenly across the spectrum.
HCL® Bronze: For everyday variable conditions, from full sun to overcast. Provides excellent contrast. Great if you love a warm, subtle bronze tint.
PolarizedPlus®2: In every pair of Maui Jims you'll find our patented, color-infused lens technology that wipes out 99.9% of glare, 100% of harmful UV and boosts color via specially designed lens treatments. So your view is clearer, with crisper contrast and amazing brilliance.
Polycarbonate: When durability and protection against shattering are the priority, choose a lens that stands up to your most intense activities. Scratch- and impact-resistant. Injection molded for crisp optics. With patented lens treatments that infuse your view with vivid color. Your lightest choice for long days in the sun.
CLEARSHELL® Scratch Coating: A proprietary, silicone-based hard coat that protects your lenses. Glass is naturally scratch-resistant but Maui Evolution and polycarbonate lenses perform better longer with the added durability of our optically correct Clearshell. Applied to front and back of the lens.
- Frame/Fit
Material: This sporty frame incorporates the finest Nickel/Silver metal alloy for durability and easy adjustability. The bridge is constructed from stainless steel.
Finishing Treatment: Gloss finish with a skull temple structure. Rubber temple tips provide extra grip.
Hinge: Anti-corrosive spring that provides flexibility offering a secure, comfortable fit for various face shapes and sizes.

Best glasses I have ever owned
Review by: Daniel -
Fit Durability Style Value I have worn several different types of glasses but a friend recommended Maui Jim's. The best advice I ever received.The Sandbar style works best for me. They are the clearest, most durable glasses I have ever owned. Maui Jim also stands by their product repairing or replacing them has never been a problem. They are simply the best.

Stuck on my Sandbar
Review by: Heffy -
The best sunglasses I have EVER owned. They are worth every dime. I'm sending my Maui Jim Sandbar in for service and can't wait for their return. Maui Jim service is the best. I have literally worn them out. The clarity while on the water is excellent. The comfort is superior to any sunglasses I have ever owned. I'll never own another brand.

Love the Shades
Review by: JenLynn -
This is my second pair of Maui Jim sunglasses and I LOVE THEM SO MUCH!!! They are so lite weight and still stay on your face. They match anything you wear and you are able to wear them when your dressed up or in your bathing suit at the beach. Anyone who loves sunglasses will appreciate a pair like these. They are made well and will last you a life time.

Sandbar is my favorite Maui Jim !
Review by: FanforLife -
Aloha !
I have owned several pair of Maui Jim's over the course of the last 12 years. By far, the Sandbar in Gold with the Bronze lens has been my favorite. Not only does it look good on anyone, it is light and comfortable. I get so many compliments on this style, that many of my friends have also purchased this same pair. This sunglass has the new evolution lens which is so clear and bright. I will always be a Maui Jim fan because of the quality, but the Sandbar is by far one of the best styles because of how good it looks on !

Even BETTER!
Review by: JD1895 -
I have worn the MJ Kapalua style w/Rose lens for over 4 years. I absolutely love those sunglasses, with one caveat, there was always just a wee bit too much light leakage around the lenses, so if I was in bright sunshine, I always squinted just a bit. Not enough to give them up though. I recently broke the bridge on my Kapaluas and before sending them in for repair, I thought I'd see what was new in the MJ line. Went to my local sunglass hut and found the Sandbar in the same rose color. As soon as I put them on, I knew I had found what I had been missing. These babies wrap and cover SO WELL, it's just amazing. It will take some getting used to the different frame/earpiece style, but that hasn't been a problem so far. They seem to fit just as well as the Kapalua, and don't seem to slide at all. The new nose piece on these is very nice as well. I will NEVER wear anything but MJ's!

Sandbar's glory
Review by: Iberiafirstclass -
My Sandbar's are amazing. I love them. I have a smaller face and they fit very well...they are my everyday sunglasses. I went out on a limb buying the rose colored ones... they look great. I use them outdoors for various activities, they protect my eyes as well as provide clear peripheral vision. They are light weight and very stylish.

New Supergirl Line Available Exclusively at JC Penny
Supergirl by Nastia Celebrates Girl Empowerment and Individuality in a Fun, Affordable Lifestyle Collection
LOS ANGELES, CA (March 22, 2010) /PRNewswire/ — Warner Bros. Consumer Products (WBCP) proudly announced today it has partnered with five-time Olympic medalist Nastia Liukin to create Supergirl by Nastia, the first-ever lifestyle merchandise line of its kind for girls available at a major retailer. Supergirl by Nastia will feature trend-right, affordable apparel that encourages a message of empowerment, creativity, strength, intelligence and independence – the symbolic attributes of the iconic Supergirl S-Shield. The collection, created for today's 8-12-year-old girls, will be available exclusively at JCPenney (NYSE: JCP) – in stores and on jcp.com – beginning July 20, just in time for the back-to-school season.
An Olympic all-around champion and one of the most decorated American gymnasts in the history of the sport, Nastia Liukin is a shining example of the Supergirl brand—an aspirational spokesperson who believes that with hard work and commitment to a dream, anything is possible. Liukin embraces being a mentor and a positive role model to girls.
"I am so proud to be partnering with Warner Bros. Consumer Products and JCPenney to present to girls and moms the Supergirl by Nastia line, which I believe represents not only a fashionable and affordable option, but also communicates an important message of empowerment," said Liukin. "The Supergirl S-Shield is a unique and iconic symbol that has inspired this collection. I believe it will do the same for girls who wear it."The line will retail from $20 – $38, making it affordable and exciting for girls to style themselves like a Supergirl. The collection will include active fleece, dresses and tunics, knit pants, signature Supergirl tees, dancewear, fashion leggings, shrug tops and more."The Supergirl S-Shield is embraced the world over as a symbol of girl power," said Brad Globe, president, Warner Bros. Consumer Products. "From 'fashionistas' to 'actionistas,' a Supergirl is today's girl and we are proud to be partnering with Nastia Liukin and JCPenney to bring the Supergirl by Nastia line, and its message of empowerment, to life at retail for all girls and their parents.
"Supergirl by Nastia provides our customers an affordable and accessible clothing brand that embodies Nastia's strong, active and independent lifestyle and we look forward to introducing this brand to our customers this back-to-school season. Fashion is a great way for young girls to express their confidence and individuality and this line will send them back into the classroom in an empowered way," said Clark McNaught, senior vice president and general merchandise manager of JCPenney's children's division. "The launch of Supergirl by Nastia underscores our commitment to deliver stylish, affordable brands that respond to the needs of our customers. And as the exclusive retailer of this exciting new brand, it provides yet another compelling reason for customers to shop with JCPenney and strengthens our position as a leading destination for children's apparel."
Supergirl by Nastia will be supported by a robust marketing rollout, from circular advertising, direct mail and integrated social media to in-store promotions and appearances by Liukin across the country, all launching later this year.
For the past four years, Warner Bros. has been supporting female athletes with the Supergirl Jam, the only large-scale, all-girls action sports competition and lifestyle/music festival. This event is designed to promote and celebrate female strength, independence and empowerment.
With the Supergirl Jam, Warner Bros. successfully established the Supergirl S-Shield, the universally recognized symbol of strength and leadership, as the symbol under which today's sports girls unite. These "actionistas" embody the intelligence, independence, strength and creativity of the Supergirl brand.Continuing the Supergirl brand's support of today's action sports girl, the inaugural Nastia Liukin Supergirl Cup was held this month, celebrating the accomplishments of young, rising female gymnasts and exemplifying the same collective attributes for which the Supergirl S-Shield stands.

Beyond the Chalk
Keeping It All In Perspective
Nastia has a very busy schedule every week splitting her time between two training sessions a day and the many other commitments of a professional athlete and student. She was accepted in Southern Methodist University in Dallas to begin her freshman year in 2008 but after trying to juggle her training and academic commitments decided to put college on hold until after the Olympic Games. She plans to enrol this January and hopes to major in international business. She has already featured in a number of international and national television advertising campaigns and in 2006 had a small speaking role in the hit gymnastics themed movie Stick It and would like to continue to pursue any acting and modelling opportunities that may arise.
As for her gymnastics aspirations, Nastia takes it one day at a time enjoying all of the challenges and opportunities that the sport brings her, "I do this for myself. I like the sport. I like everything about it". Rather than dimming her drive to compete, her Olympic experience has only fuelled Nastia's desire to return to competition. She returned to full time training in January 2009 setting new goals and dreams. First stop, the 2009 VISA Championships and a chance to compete for the first time in front of her hometown crowd in Dallas. After that, she hopes to achieve selection in the team for the 2009 World Championships and the chance to become the most decorated American gymnast in world level competition in her own right. As she has throughout her career, Nastia is only interested in talking about short-term goals taking her gymnastics journey day by day, month by month and year by year enjoying achieving and setting new goals for herself along the way. As to 2012 and a return to the Olympics ... only time will tell.

When Vince Young entered the NFL out of the University of Texas he was thought to be a can't miss prospect. The quarterback was drafted third overall by the Tennessee Titans and signed a contract guaranteeing him $26 million.
Six years later he is dead broke and out of the NFL.
Where did things go wrong for Young? The fingers are pointing in all different directions.
The first mistake that Young made was becoming the first client of a company, 1 Next Level Sports and Entertainment Inc., formed by Major Adams, a Houston criminal defense attorney, and the quarterback's uncle, Keith Young, a former middle school teacher.
"He was just very young … and allowing these people to have too much control over his life and his name," Trey Dolezal, Young's attorney told MSNBC.
Young is suing Adams, and a North Carolina financial planner, Ronnie Peoples, alleging that they misappropriated $5.5 million. In some cases, the pair allegedly forged his signature or impersonated him on the phone or in emails, according to the lawsuit, filed in Houston in June.
Adams denies the allegations.
"This is a person scrambling helplessly and pointing in all directions to blame others to get out of debt," said Charles Peckham, Adams' attorney.
Peckham admits that his client twice wrote checks to himself from Young's accounts, but "both times were out of necessity, including once when the agent was required to use personal funds to charter a plane for the quarterback after he missed a team flight."
Besides the $26 million that Young somehow spent, he is also in default on loan of $1.9 million dollars from Pro Player Funding LLC, that he took out during the NFL lockout in 2011.
Young is now attempting to stop Pro Player from enforcing a judgment of nearly $1.7 million. He claims that Adams and Peoples obtained the loan instead of him.
"They conspired to take Vince's money," Dolezal said. "It's that simple."
Young was attempting to make it as a backup quarterback for his third team, the Buffalo Bills this offseason when Pro Player began their attempts to collect the rest of the money they were owed, after Young missed a payment and the loan went into default.
Young blames Pro Player as the reason the Bills cut him.
"I wasn't in the room when they (the Bills) made a decision, but what would you think? It certainly wouldn't help me if I'm the owner or the head coach knowing all this is going on with Vince and then he goes out and plays poorly," Dolezal said.
Bills coach Chan Gailey declined to comment on the story.
Peoples has filed a countersuit in which he castigates Young for allowing his uncle to serve as his business manager despite having no expertise in that field.
Peoples claims in the countersuit that every decision he made was approved by Keith Young. And he calls Vince Young's unwillingness to accept responsibility "a common occurrence … as (former Titans coach) Jeff Fisher, (Texas coach) Mack Brown, numerous NFL executives, coaches, teammates, scouts, girlfriends and illegitimate children will attest."
Peoples' attorney, David Chaumette, said he has documents to support the strongly-worded filing.
"You'll find there was a lot of money being spent in a bunch of different directions," Chaumette said.

Quote via my husband. It was passed to him by our friend, Marianne.
So wild that you posted that quote today- that is the very quote that prompted me to go ahead and take the leap and have a baby- and Providence has moved. Nearly three years later he is the light of my life. No more hesitantcy! Thanks-

Hello chaps :) I just saw this on the net about a new OS from M$ called Singularity. What do you think of it thus far? http://www.pcpro.co.uk/news/174267/microsoft-releases-robust-new-operating-system.html
<DELURK> "The OS is coded in an extension of C# - rather than more simple C or C++ - to avoid the flaws of today's operating systems, such as their susceptibility to buffer overruns from worms or viruses." Hahahahahahahahahaha! I needed that laugh. <LURK>
I wonder if anyone actually took a look to the code before opening his/her mouth. Note that I don't trust Microsoft either, but giving that Singularity is not planned to be a successor to Windows, but a research experiment, makes me think it _can_ be good.
And what does this crap have to do with OpenBSD? Ah, yesss, it's TROLL NOISE. Rod/ "Write a wise saying and your name will live on forever." - Anonymous
Having a kernel with managed code is not necessarily idiotic (although I think in most cases smart pointers do the job better). However having chosen C# is in my opinion not optimal. C# is very limited when it comes to generic and meta-programming. I think "modern-styled" C++ (ie template intensive) and a functional oriented language would have been a better choice for a secure OS built from the ground up.
Have you ever been involved in OS design and implementation? And I do not mean academic exercises, but a real world project producing actual working stuff. -Otto
I don't think it is relevant or even polite to question one's abilities when discussing technical matters.
You state an opinion without backing it up by referring to either existing projects or by personal experience. I do not know any succesful project using "template style C++" and functional languges for OS development, so I'm asking if you have any experience using these for OS develpment.
I have studied it and used it on many projects. I never got used to dealing with its inherent flaws. It is a language that always has a If it doesn't have buffer overflows it means you did a good job writing your code. C++ doesn't get any cookies. Are you sure that all the garbage you linked against also doesn't have What you really are saying is that magic happens behind the scenes. If you are ok with trusting the compiler to do all that stuff right then I guess that would be a good thing. Considering the quality of gcc I'll I call malarkey on all this. I have to this day see C++ re-use. Honestly the only useful application I have ever seen for C++ is to encapsulate windows calls. Borland did an amazing job with RTL. I would never ever even dare to think about using any of that stuff in kernel code though. The other things you mentioned are straight from the marketing
Are you sure you used the STL? http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/driver/kernel/KMcode.mspx Read the section about "Libraries": "Although much of the Standard Template Library is implemented as source code in headers, it occasionally uses library functions or other features that are not available or usable in the kernel environment." I'm guessing you must have had to do some serious mangling of the STL in order to shoehorn it into your driver. Sounds like far more trouble than it's worth. -ml
The comment from Microsoft is correct. Basically you need to remove exceptions support and write custom allocators. I have been unsucessful with the Microsoft STL, I therefore used STLPort. The problem with the provided STL headers is that there is a #define nightmare for C++/CLI compatibility. I think we are drafting toward OT...
http://www.jnode.org/ has been around for a while and if you search sf.net for "+java +operating +system" http://sourceforge.net/search/?words=%2Bjava+%2Bos&type_of_search=soft&pmode=0... you get 86 results. So the C# version was bound to follow. And as far as I can remember there is an open source effort to write a c#, can't remember the name though.

Love the marketing lingo "managed code". I am sure we can move some I don't think I could come up with a more awkward language than C++. It is too generic where it should be specific and too specific where it should be generic. I marvel at how bad the language is designed and by the sheer fact that it has ++ in it that made the marketing departments go wild.
> What's next? an OS in java and php? There's been a Java OS in development for a while. http://www.jnode.org/ Erik
Can't wait to see it's incredible success at being an OS. Ever wondered why your cell phone OS sucks?

There is a kernel being written in Lisp called Movitz ( http://common-lisp.net/project/movitz/) and there was one in Python as well that I saw a few years ago but I forget the name (it started with U...) -- http://www.vikaskumar.org/
Marco, it would be better for you if you make informed comments rather than just resorting to sarcasm the moment you get a chance. Check out http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JavaOS ~Mayuresh
"Sun now officially considers JavaOS a legacy system <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legacy_system> and recommends migration to Java ME <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Java_ME> ^[1] <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JavaOS#_note-0> . This by itself however is not a full replacement, as Java ME is an API <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/API> specification, which runs on top of an operating system, and is not an operating system in itself." I may be mistaken but if they relegate this to the rank of a "legacy system" instead of improving it and giving more credit to their language, it must mean something about the use of their language to design a system. Gilles
They relegated it to "legacy system" status because there wasn't a market for it. Java ME targets the embedded systems market and does it quite well. Embedded systems developers typically have used a fixed set of OSes, Sun considered it not worthwhile to introduce one more standard, and instead focused on delivering a platform for application development.

Conclusion by FlightSim.com:"I have flown for many years on a cheap joystick. This is all well and good, but I, like many of my fellows, simply did not realize how much a good controller does for your simming experience. There is an indescribable joy in having such superb hardware and the feel of the yoke is unerringly realistic; indeed, I enjoyed this product whether I was in a B-17, an A380, or the F-16. I believe this to be a very worthy investment, and my only regret is that I did not purchase it sooner, so to have had so much more time really enjoying my flying."

text: Jenna Jameson has said that Krystal Steal is her prot'g' and that she expects Krystal to take over the reigns as the single most sought after movie star in the porn industry once Jenna retires. I certainly can't argue with that; Krystal's assets are almost as flawless as her perfectly shaped ass. While her uncanny resemblance to pop sensation Christina Aguilera has raised almost as much controversy as it has hype, I certainly don't hear her masses of fans complaining, especially when she collaborates with such porn royalty as Jenna, Asia Carrera, or Briana Banks. Often portraying a cast-iron bitch with an attitude in her porn videos, Krystal Steal has shown again and again that while she may not be able to swallow her pride, she is more that up to the challenge of swallowing just about anything else. Whether it's a sexy lesbian love fest or blowing a massive cock until she gets sprayed with jizz, excellent content on Twistys, Glamour Models Gone Bad or Club Peter North will show you exactly what I'm talking about.

Broken Circles
by Anna Haebich
Price $35.00
- About the Book
There was no single Stolen Generation, there were many and Broken Circles is their story. This major work reveals the dark heart of this history. It shows that, from the earliest times of European colonisation, Aboriginal Australians experienced the trauma of loss and separation, as their children were abducted, enslaved, institutionalised and culturally remodelled. Anna Haebich provides a moving and comprehensive account of this tragic history, covering all Australian colonies, states and territories. The analysis spans two hundred years of white occupation and intervention, from the earliest seizure of Aboriginal children, through their systematic state removal and incarceration and on to the harsh treatment of families under the assimilation policies of the 1950s and 60s. The resistance struggle and achievements of Aboriginal people in defending their communities, regaining their rights and mending the broken circles of family life provides a compelling parallel story of determination and courage.

Download of Illegal Games up by 20%
According to BBC Newsbeat the download of illegal copies of video games has gone up by 20% in the last 5 years.
Envisional also said that the 2010 top five games were pirated online almost a million times, which can come to the conclusion that game creators might have to insert some additional game securities into the gaming industry such as a code for online play already seen in many games in the market. With these huge numbers of downloads most firms think there is going to be a generation where players think they can get their games for free.
"I buy games because I've pirated them, if I don't get to try them I never would have bothered picking them up". – Says Sam, a gamer, interviewed by Newsbeat.
This is what most online pirates like to say, because if we download it pirated we know we might get fined but there's always the excuse of trying to "illegally" test the games first, which is not a pretty good excuse in my opinion.
"I've never been fined. I've been doing this since I was 14 and I'm now 23. Games that I enjoy I purchase, ones that I don't enjoy I delete."- Said Sam in the same interview.
This is what makes more and more gamers to download illegal copies of their favourite titles, if they are not caught once, twice and thrice they will keep doing this for years.
Andy Payne, chairman of the Association for UK Interactive Entertainment (UKIE), believes it's something the industry is already doing. Earlier this year video game executives told Newsbeat online piracy cost the industry hundreds of jobs and millions of pounds.However, UKIE is reluctant to give a similar estimate for either, saying it is nearly impossible to get an accurate figure. It is keen though to emphasise that big blockbuster titles can cost millions of pounds to produce. – source: Newsbeat
This is one of the reasons why most recording companies want to block The Pirate Bay in the UK.
