text: Phonon, in condensed-matter physics, a unit of vibrational energy that arises from oscillating atoms within a crystal. Any solid crystal, such as ordinary table salt (sodium chloride), consists of atoms bound into a specific repeating three-dimensional spatial pattern called a lattice. Because the atoms behave as if they are connected by tiny springs, their own thermal energy or outside forces make the lattice vibrate. This generates mechanical waves that carry heat and sound through the material. A packet of these waves can travel throughout the crystal with a definite energy and momentum, so in quantum mechanical terms the waves can ... (100 of 340 words)

Pros: This RAM is just too sexy! Looks great, runs fine. 8 GB is nice for running 2 or 3 VMs (or Wordstar).
Cons: None yet.
Other Thoughts: Actually not finished testing it, but no problems found with the testing I've done so far --a few passes with memtest86 and the Windows 7 built in memory diag.READ FULL REVIEW

Pros: Loving it so far. I'm not over clocking (yet), but that's a no cost upgrade that I can take advantage of as needed. It has the nicer IGP, if that's of interest to anyone. It does what it's supposed to .. donno what else to say.

This review is from: Crucial 1GB (2 x 512MB) 184-Pin DDR SDRAM DDR 333 (PC 2700) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory Model CT2KIT6464Z335
Pros: Did the job. I was surprised to find DDR memory is 4x the cost of DDR3 memory, but whatever. I'm sure the price was competitive for that product, so no reason to knock off an egg.
Cons: None. It was for my bro's computer, which had Vista running (sort of) in 512 Mb. Needless to say, it runs much better now.READ FULL REVIEW

Andy Millne commented on Charles's article in IPS NewsThis is a developer aid to set live search keywords. They are not shown when not using developer mode.
Andy Millne replied to TDBF's topic in Product FeedbackI'm confused. You can set the profanity filter to be bypassed by certain groups. If you trust members in that group just disable the filter. They can then choose whether they wish to use profanity or not. I'm not sure why there needs to be a setting for them to filter themselves. Edit: Oh I see what you mean, sorry. You want the viewer to decide whether profanity is shown to them not whether they are allowed to post it. I guess that makes sense although it would mean a major change in the way we parse post content. Currently profanity is parsed on save whereas doing this would require an additional step on display which is more resource intensive as it needs to be done on every view not just on save.
Andy Millne replied to liquidfractal's topic in Product FeedbackThis is actually already possible by editing the plural noun for each of your databases in ACP > Pages > Databases > Edit > Language. So if you have two databases with entries you could set one as "My 1st database entries" and the other as "My 2nd database entries". The second issue with the categories selectors showing on the advanced search form is actually a bug which is now fixed.

Cape Town - According to reports, suspected match-fixer Gulam Bodi offered at least four former Proteas cricketers up to R800 000 to fix matches during the 2015 Ram Slam T20 tournament.
According to the Saturday Star, four Proteas and four other players from provincial franchises were offered up to $50 000 a game to tailor their bowling or batting performances during the tournament.
Bodi himself stood to make as much as R150 000 in "commission" for a successful fix.
This comes after Cricket South Africa (CSA) last week confirmed that Bodi - a former Proteas, Dolphins, Titans and Lions cricketer - was the "intermediary" charged under its Anti-Corruption Code.
According to Afrikaans newspaper, Rapport, Bodi was in personal financial strife last July, some three months before his first alleged approach to a fellow player.
It is believed that Bodi set up numerous meetings with players over coffee, dinner, in parking lots and even at an adult entertainment venue in Johannesburg.
CSA Chief Executive, Haroon Lorgat, commented on the matter last Friday: "Following our investigations and due process, we have reached a point where we can confirm that Mr Bodi is the intermediary who was charged by CSA in early December 2015 under the CSA Anti-Corruption Code.
"Mr Bodi is presently co-operating with the CSA Anti-Corruption officials. We now await his response to the charges and the matter will take its course in accordance with the process outlined in the Code."
Pending receipt of his response, Bodi has been provisionally suspended under Article 4.7.1 of the Code.

New contracts power Stobart
Eddie Stobart has continued to drive growth for its parent company thanks to new contracts from the likes of Tesco and Irn Bru owner AG Barr. The road transport and warehousing division of Stobart Group posted a 30 per cent rise in annual profits to £33.6m. But group profits fell 11 per cent to £29.5m as the rail and ports units underperformed.
Lloyds presses on with branch sales
Lloyds has named Paul Pester, a former Virgin Money and Santander executive, to lead "Project Verde", its forced disposal of 600 branches under a European competition agreement. Lloyds has accelerated the sale in a move that could make it difficult for the Independent Commision on Banking to demand it adds more branches to the sale.
Peppa Pig perks up film profits
The film content specialist Entertainment One increased underlying profits by 39 per cent to £32.3m in the year to March as retail revenues from its Peppa Pig character passed the £200m mark. Sales overall climbed 12 per cent to £470m, helped also by the success of the third instalment of the Twilight vampire film series.
Life industry speeds pay-outs
Life insurance payments will be made within four weeks rather than taking up to four months, under guidelines published by the insurance industry. Policy beneficiaries and dependents will be able to cut through legal red tape by agreeing to pay back any money they receive if the legal process decides they were not the rightful recipient.
Record order book for Mitie
Mitie has reported a record order book as more companies look for help in reducing their energy bills and meeting emission targets. Energy services, such as biomass plants, wind power and solar panels now account for a third of revenues at Mitie, which also unveiled a 15 per cent rise in annual profits to £106m.
Rolls-Royce wins Taiwanese order
The aero engine maker Rolls-Royce has won its first order from the Taiwanese airline TransAsia Airways. The contract, worth $150m (£93m), is for Trent 700 engines and long-term service support. The engines will power two Airbus A330 aircraft to be delivered in 2012-13.
EasyJet deputy to stand down
EasyJet's deputy chairman and senior independent director, Sir David Michels, who has faced criticism over pay deals at the low-cost airline, is to step down from the board at the end of the year. EasyJet's founder, Sir Stelios Haji-Ioannou, said Sir David had made the right decision but should step down immediately.
Alwaleed backs Glencore IPO
The Saudi billionaire Prince Alwaleed and his investment firm Kingdom Holding have invested $400m (£248m) in Glencore's initial public offering, the firm said yesterday. "[The investment] represents 3.6 per cent of the value of shares offered, Kingdom Holding's share is worth $60m," Kingdom said.
EnCore pulls North Sea float
EnCore Oil has cancelled the flotation of its North Sea-focused exploration business XEO, citing difficult market conditions due to Britain's recent decision to raise taxes for oil and gas explorers. EnCore said the market's appetite for the UK North Sea had diminished ever since the tax raise was unveiled.
Shell under fire over near leak
Norway's oil-safety watchdog has criticised Shell for an oil-well incident it said had the potential for a major accident and could have caused a leak. The incident took place last December at the Draugen platform in the Norwegian Sea when engineers attempted to replace a gas-lift valve in the well.

Not So Long Ago, Not So Far Away
Even though I was only 11 years old when I first saw Star Wars, I had two reactions to the scene of Luke Skywalker zipping across the Tatooine desert in his land speeder. I first thought, "Cool! I want one of those." My next thought was, "How does that work? Every hovercraft I've ever seen creates a seal between the craft and the ground to contain the air." I was a precocious child.
Silly me. It wasn't hovering at all. It was defying gravity a significantly more complicated feat, but one that easily explains the lack of a hovercraft skirt. And according to Jeanne Cavelos in The Science of Star Wars , such an antigravity vehicle would need only to carry around a cargo of "exotic matter" equal to its own mass to counteract the planet's gravity. "Exotic matter" the real term for "any material that pushes objects apart, that has in essence repulsive gravity or antigravity" it turns out, is a theoretical probability. Sure, science has never detected, let alone seen or confined, any of this negative matter (not to be confused with antimatter), but on paper, it's out there. So while on earth we are a long, long way from flying without worrying about Bernoulli's principle, maybe a more technologically advanced civilization millions of light years away has mastered antigravity.
The possibility of worlds as fantastical as Tatooine, of ships like the Millennium Falcon hitting light speed, of light sabers, truly intelligent robots, and socially evolved alien species is the beauty of books like The Science ofStarWars . Adding even a hint of science fact to the far-out science fiction of George Lucas makes it all that much more magical.
And as she did in The Science of the X-Files , Cavelos packs a lot of facts into The Science of Star Wars . Breaking down the fictional Star Wars realm into chapters on "Planetary Environments," "Aliens," "Droids," "Spaceships and Weapons," and "The Force," Cavelos draws on geology, astronomy, cosmology, ecology, biology, computer science, physics, astrophysics, and psychology (to name just a few) to apply the latest scientific thinking to topics as diverse as the Jawas' glowing eyes and the gait of C-3PO.
Star Wars is escapist mythology. But after decades of development, it is also a well-thought-out and rich alternative universe. The Science of Star Wars makes the details of that unreal world more real than you may have imagined.

Love the style and quality of materials and craftsmanship, but the ankle area was very tight (and I have rather skinny ankles). I have a true 9.5 (41) foot and its slightly narrower than average. I've tried on other Remonte styles before, and most seem to fit me a bit closer than the average shoe, both in length and width. I highly recommend either ordering a size up and putting in your own arch supports (the ones here are removeable). I personally didn't try this, (I returned mine) but I bet it would work for most people.
I love this shoe!! Best pair I've had in 46 years! It feels like I'm walking on a memory foam bed. My feet still feel good when I get home from 8 hours of standing. I would recommend this shoe to anyone!
Classic and cute white shoes. Got them for my daughters Hip Hop routine but definitely glad she can wear them again. My only complaint is that they ran big so I had to exchange them.
I usually wear a 7-7.5, or a 38. I ordered a 39 due to other reviews and what was available. It was a good length, and the boot is pretty roomy--i have a wide foot and high arch, both of which were accommodated nicely. However, as another reviewer mentioned, the footbed seemed too narrow, meaning that even though my foot didn't feel squeezed, it felt like I was hanging over the side of the sole. And the heel was too loose, slipping up at lease a half inch when I walked.
I think once I wear these in they will be perfect. I love the look of them, and Toms is a great brand. I didn't feel wobbly walking in them, I think I just need to break them in a tad. Good purchase!
I have wide feet, so heels are not my favorite. Yet, these are comfortable. They do start to hurt after 6 hours, so if you're going to an evening event, be wary. Otherwise, they are comfortable.
These are very comfortable! More so than I expected - the insole has a lot of cushioning. I usually wear a 6 1/2, which I ordered and they fit perfectly without socks (which is what I want). The only bad thing is that the right shoe has a little defect where the fabric inside got folded at the top of the seam - it created a little bump which rubs my heel. So I had to put some moleskin over it.
Bought these for my daughter and she loves them. She is a big vans and converse girl. Not anymore. They are so cute, and comfortable!Would definitely buy again.
I scoured the internet looking for reviews on this show; however, I couldn't find anything (due to it being a newer shoe for the UA line). SO, I felt I would do my own since I've used this shoe and trained in this shoe. Comfort: Right out of the box, it felt stiff and did not provide a lot of flexibility. With time, it has broken in and it has become more comfortable. I'm willing to bet as I continue to wear, it will break in further. 4 Stars: Training: It has a solid base and I feel very grounded when doing lower body lifts (deadlift/squats). I would NOT recommend this as a running shoe! I can see it used for indoor exercises (cone drills, short sprints, ladders, etc)...however, I have not done this yet. It does feel sturdy and not cheap. I have not had a chance to do any outdoor training either due to snowy conditions. I'm willing to bet it will hold up. 5 Stars. Style: The "burrito tongue" style is new to me. I was uncertain at first but I must say, my foot feels locked in place and I have not noticed a lot of slip. I love the color(s) and the texture (personal choice). I would have liked the bottom portion of the shoe to have been black so staining isn't so apparent.After leaving the gym the first day, the bottom of my shoe was black due to the gym mats. It's a small complaint (I don't really care). Overall: I've grown further accustom to UA in training products opposed to Nike as time progresses. I feel Nike is more about distributing cheaper products opposed to investing in quality. (I too, have had faulty UA products but feel Nike is more consistent with making cheaper products ). This is a solid shoe. I looked forward to seeing how it stands during my training. "4.5" Stars Overall. I should also clarify, I'm an above average gym "goer". I'm a prior collegiate athlete and have spent a fair amount of time clanging plates together in the gym. I do not do "crossfit", but I would be willing to bet this shoe would hold up just fine.
These boots were so comfortable the first time I wore then to work.

The 2013 Nissan Murano CrossCabriolet- PGI Auto
The Nissan Murano has a new model – the 2013 Nissan Murano CrossCabriolet. This Murano model is truly unique in that it is an AWD SUV crossover convertible, and you would be hard put to it to find another model with all those characteristics. Nissan is the only automaker with the ability to create a crossover this unique.
There are a few small differences in the design and size of the cabriolet version of the Murano. The 2013 Nissan Murano CrossCabriolet is taller than the regular Murano models, sports 21-inch wheels, two longer doors and a longer convertible top. It's also decked with real wood trim and quilted leather throughout the interior.
The Murano CrossCabriolet is powered by a 3.5-liter V6 with one of the smoothest CVT systems available. This ragtop convertible comes standard with all-wheel-drive and 22 MPG capabilities. The interior has several technologies including Bluetooth hands-free, USB port, satellite radio, navigation and a rearview camera.
For more information about the Murano, or to take a look at any Nissan vehicle, contact Larson Nissan, proudly serving the Renton area.

Magnetic float level sensors involve the use of a permanent magnet sealed inside a float whose rise and fall causes the opening or closing of a mechanical switch in proximity of a reed switch or through direct contact. With mechanically actuated floats, the float is directly connected to a micro switch. For both magnetic and mechanical float level sensors, chemical compatibility, temperature, specific gravity (density), buoyancy, and viscosity affect the selection of the stem and the float. For example, larger floats may be used with liquids with specific gravities as low as 0.5 while still maintaining buoyancy. The choice of float material is also influenced by temperature-induced changes in specific gravity and viscosity – changes that directly affect buoyancy.

Mini Skip Hire Companies
In case you are renovating your house or planning a backyard cleanup you could need to employ mini skip, occasionally known as skip bins or dumpsters, that is a big refuse bin, usually noticed on construction web pages.
Mini skips are available in diverse shapes and sizes; the smallest is usually ranging from about two cubic metres to 4 cubic metres
The various skip rental organizations have distinct techniques of charging for their skips. Some charge a flat fee for a service. Frequently you will be only permitted to possess the skip to get a week or less. This flat fee contains waste disposal or dumping charges as they're typically recognized. Other providers may possibly supply a less expensive base rate, but charge you extra dumping charges soon after collection from the skip. Be cautious to read the fine print on these expenses to prevent any nasty surprises. Costs also vary by city and even by location within a city. When you are buying around for any skip it's important that you know the approximate weight and volume from the refuse as this will assist you to to ascertain which the most beneficial quote is for you.
There is an extremely huge quantity of competing skip providers in most locations and it can really take a extended time phoning around to discover the most effective value for the skip of the requires. One particular remedy to this challenge is to use a web-based skip booking service that will search a range of skip and waste collection firms for you personally and get you a competitive quote in seconds. This way you can also be certain that your skip are going to be provided by a reliable firm. In this way you spend on-line with your credit card in a secure way, and acquire a confirmation by email. The entire method will take about 2 minutes.

Accreditation process for universities in the UK

Project Budget$30 - $10000 USD
Total Bids11
Project Description
Private universities in India must be accredited by the University Grants Commission (UGC):
[url removed, login to view]
[url removed, login to view]
I need detailed answers to the following questions:
1. What exactly are the minimum requirements for an institution to receive university status for (i) a normal private university, (ii) a distance learning private university?
2. How exactly does the application process work?
What must the institution submit? Who are contact persons? How long does the process take? How expensive is the process?
These questions must be answered very concrete. For example to answer question 1. it is NOT sufficent to just state that the quality of teaching must be high.
The answers to these questions must come from official sources (i.e. the UGC, ministries, the government, etc. ).
It might be the case that these information are available in the internet, for example on the website of UGC. However, it is more likely that you have to contact the UGC directly and ask for information. It is thus advantageous if you live in India and speak Hindi.
In particular I am interested in official regulations and documents which answer the questions in a concrete manner.
Thank you for your time.

Model for evaluating
Teaching in both synchronous and asynchronous distance learning (DL) environments is characterized by a physical separation between teachers and students. This separation creates "transactional distance" or psychological space that can cause possible gaps in students' understanding of content as well as misconceptions about them as learners and the learning process. Consequently, identifying pedagogical mechanisms and teaching strategies that contribute to reducing these gaps represents a... More

Tech Growth Led to Success for Foreign-Born Entrepreneur
Born in Ethiopia, Abdi Ahmed moved to the United States, and after a stint at Apple Computer, launched his own computer-programming company. But before the success, there was struggle. Abdi Ahmed shares his story, in his own words.
TONY COX, host:
And as Jonathan mentioned, one big growth area for immigrant businesses is Information Technology. IT is certainly a passion for business owner Abdi Ahmed. Born in Ethiopia, Abdi moved to the United States in 1983. He made Southern California his home and received a bachelors and masters degree in computer science.
He worked for Apple Computer. He then went on to launch his own computer programming company called NetServe Systems. And these days, the business generates an annual gross income of nearly half a million dollars. But before the success came the struggle, and plenty of it.
Here's Abdi Ahmed in his own words.
Mr. ABDI AHMED (Owner, NetServe Systems): You won't believe my very first job was actually working in a gas station. And I literally worked over a hundred hours a week. I didn't have a car, so I would get off of that job, get the bus, and then I will fall asleep, I would work probably about 4 p.m. to anytime about 8 or 9 or 10 a.m. next day.
I had a father who was very persistent in - from early childhood on explaining to me that the need for being educated, the need for being self-sufficient, the need for being an entrepreneur. So when I came here, I was single-mindedly focused on first and foremost being educated. There was one class that was available, and all the classes that I was interested in where actually filled up, so I took computer science by accident.
Then I started to fell in love, basically, with programming. Through computers, (unintelligible) Apple and the computer company, and so I went there. And I went ahead and talked to those people and they told me that there was no job. So I took the bus again next day and actually asked for the same job, and the young lady told me that, no, there was no job. and the third day, I came back. And I said, well, that was yesterday. Do you have any openings today?
And on my fourth day, she was frustrated with me, so she called the HR lady. Finally, she made a phone call to someone in the back, and the guy asked me to do some programming, some basic stuff. So I did that in five minutes or less. He asked me to come in, and actually offered me a job for $11 an hour. Think of it, I've only been in this country for about seven months at that point in time.
I was not content with working for somebody else. I've always thought maybe I can do better. I can actually work for myself, and I knew the ramifications of being self-employed and the headaches, but I still wanted to do that because it resonated with what my dad said in terms of wanting to be self-sufficient financially as well as professionally.
So in 1996, when I founded NetServe Systems, I was a consultant with the county of Orange doing some IT software engineering services. That was a one-man shop, very content, again, with what I was doing.
So in 2001-2002, decided to go ahead and actually hire people and take it to the next level. We've been honored as a Small Business of the Year for 2006 at the California Small Business Association. Again, this year, I've just received - actually, yesterday - a letter from an organization called GLAAACC, or Greater Los Angeles African-American Chamber of Commerce, and they've honored us as the African-American Business of the Year for the entire greater Los Angeles area.
And this country offers the most opportunity for anyone who wants to work and who wants to work hard. My country of origin would not offer me the opportunities that have been offered to me by this country. So immigrants, it doesn't really matter where they're from, are always aware of the fact that there is an opportunity in this country and that the more they work, the more likely they would succeed in their endeavors.
COX: Abdi Ahmed is the owner of NetServe Systems and a professor at Santa Ana College in Southern California.
Just ahead, the daily Roundtable.

Health Inequality, Education and Medical Innovation
Recent studies suggest that health inequalities across socio-economic groups in the US are large and have been growing. We hypothesize that, as in other, non-health contexts, this pattern occurs because more educated people are better able than to take advantage of technological advances in medicine than are the less educated. We test this hypothesis by relating education gradients in mortality with measures medical innovation. We focus on overall mortality and cancer mortality, examining both the incidence of cancer and survival conditional on disease incidence. We find evidence supporting the hypothesis that education gradients are steeper for diseases with more innovation.

I think that the first book was very good, the second was better. But the third book is definitely the best. Towards the end it was so thrilling that it almost made me feel physically ill. Haven´t happened since I read the dog of Baskervillle (Sherlock Holmes). But that was almost 40 years ago when I was 8 years or so.
– Janne, 19 Mars 2009
I'm reading the seconf book now and I really like it. I'm quite hooked up and I enjoy every page of it.
It is very unfortunate that such an honourable, talented, and hard working person died so young.
– Martí / Girona / Catalunya, 19 Mars 2009
Thank you, Stieg!

I think that the three novels in Millennium series are the best I have read in years. I agree with Magnus; Stieg Larsson was against racism.
– Caterina, Italy, 15 Mars 2009
RIP, Stieg. And than thank you.

– daniel skermer, 15 Mars 2009
Great book!!! Thank you for that! Stay in peace.
Does anyone know when the second part in Poland is published?
– Karolina, Poland, 14 Mars 2009
Thank you, Stieg.
– Fulvio, 14 Mars 2009
I was just hooked, I read the two first books in five days and now I'm looking forward to reading the third one but it's not on sale in Spain. I tried to get it in English but I'm afraid it's not yet available.
– feli bilbao, 13 Mars 2009
Lisbeth Salander is my HERO. I have read both books and found that I was completely under Mr. Larsson's spell. We will miss you dearly Mr. Larsson, and wherever you may be, rest in peace. You leave many admirers behind.

Contemporary Religion & Science DialougesMarch 19, 2014 - March 10, 2014
Mānoa Campus, Sakamaki C-308
Science and religion represent two fundamental expressions of the human spirit; neither is likely to go away. Do they stand in irreconcilable conflict, or can they serve as complementary partners, aiding humanity in addressing contemporary global challenges? We will also explore in what ways science-religion dialogues can contribute to deepening conversations across the family of religions in the West with growing links to Buddhist and Taoist responses.

My personal preference is the middle one. Stronger colours, and
although flower has just opened I would still expect it to have good
When selecting seedlings I use much different criteria then when
judging or selecting for introduction. The flower is just one part of
equation. From a good seedling crop like you had with this bunch, I
would select about 5-6 seedlings. Each one haveing two or more great
strengths. The strengths I'm selecting for are branching, bud count,
number of flowers in terminal bud, shape, flare, colour flower size,
conformation and ascetics. Of course they all need to have the gentic
factors for colour, which these all do.
I select a number, because one thing you will be doing is sib crosses (
or should be anyway) and there can be sib incompatibility problems. If
you have already checked for fertility, pod and pollen of the
seedlings, then you can discard any that fire blanks or don't have
pollen, before making final selection.
With TT in background there is a possibily of getting a broken colour
some where down the line. But the ones most likely to do this will be
the ones with the pattern in the centre of the falls such as the middle
one in this selection group. That is the Luminat-plicata ones.
The amoena factor can build up in sib crosses and you could end up with
a "Queen's Circle" or "Emma Cook" pattern for anthocyanin along with
plicata stitchin
g at edge. From this line it could be a yellow centre
on falls with a white edge stitched violet. Or better yet, broken
colour at rim.
Food for thought.

Intel has gone into the open source Apache Hadoop business with its own distribution, which it calls the Intel Distribution for Apache Hadoop or simply the Intel Distribution.
Its reason for joining the Hadoop push is to sell more high-end Xeon server chips into scalable Hadoop clusters by goosing Hadoop's development. It also wants to move solid-state memory and its own networking.
Obviously it thinks the stuff is pretty fundamental.
As part of its effort Intel has added features to the Hadoop widgetry that nobody else has like silicon-based security. That makes Intel's the only Hadoop distribution to include complete encryption.
Since the widgetry supports the AES instructions in the Xeon chip, it's supposed to maximize Big Data performance and, together with the other improvements Intel has added, promises a 40% performance boost.
Intel's got 20 partners supporting the initial launch of its Hadoopery, as the Register calls it, a term we'll happily steal. These partners are supposed to integrate Intel's software into next-generation platforms and solutions and enable deployment in public and private cloud environments.
The partners include Cisco, Dell, Pentaho, Red Hat, SAP, SAS, Savvis, SuperMicro, Tableau, Teradata, Wipro and Zettaset.
Intel says it will open source all but it's most prized Hadoop platform enhancements as well as invest in more R&D to build analytic solutions for Hadoop. Whether this largesse gives rivals like Cloudera, MapR and Hortonworks a leg up remains to be seen. Intel's subscription pricing is supposed to be competitive.
Intel's off-limits proprietary software so far includes Intel Manager for Apache Hadoop software, which is supposed to simplify the deployment, configuration and monitoring of clusters for system administrators as they set up new applications.
Then there's Intel Active Tuner for Apache Hadoop software, which is supposed to take the guesswork out of performance tuning. Intel says until now this required a special understanding of each application's use of system resources along with Hadoop configuration and performance benchmarks. Now it doesn't.
Meanwhile, Intel's started Project Rhino, an open source effort to improve the data protection capabilities of the Hadoop ecosystem. The point is to improve encryption and authentication and make security more granular.
Intel imagines - and no one can gainsay this - that there will be literally tons of information coming from billions of sensors and intelligent systems; it estimates that the world generates a petabyte of data every 11 seconds, the equivalent of 13 years of HD video.
It thinks it can exploit the fact that "only a small fraction of the world is able to extract meaning from all of this information because the technologies, techniques and skills available today are either too rigid for the data types or too expensive to deploy."
And it figures the information derived from Hadoop can enrich our lives, not just make us easy marks for advertisers, by, say, accurately pinpointing customized treatments for terminal diseases.
Intel's distribution is supposed to analyze a terabyte of data, which normally takes more than four hours to fully process, in seven minutes because of its data-crunching chips and software.
Intel has been fooling around with its own Hadoop distribution for a few years ever since it formed a relationship with Yahoo and HP and is now on its third iteration based on the Apache Hadoop stack.
It has done work on the Hadoop Distributed File System, the YARN MapReduce 2.0 distributed processing framework, the Hive SQL query tool and the HBase key-value store.
Intel was reportedly pushed to putting something on the market next quarter by China Unicom and China Mobile, a couple of Chinese telecoms, to help with some performance issues in the Hadoop stack when running on Xeon chips.
Intel will distribute its version of Hadoop, developed in China, through vendors and service providers and sell its own technical support services. It says it won't fork the system.

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
1. After filing an Entry of Default, what is the deadline for OC to move to set aside Entry of Default?
2. Is the necessity of filing of Default Judgment depend on the outcome of the motion to set aside the entry of default?
3. Is a Dismissal of Defendants also need to be filed for other defendants if only one of the defendants failed to answer? If so is it filed together with the Default Judgment?
A request for default judgement generally must be made within 45 days after default is entered. California Rules of Court Rule 3.110 provides:
"When a default is entered, the party who requested the entry of default must obtain a default judgment against the defaulting party within 45 days after the default was entered, unless the court has granted an extension of time. The court may issue an order to show cause why sanctions should not be imposed if that party fails to obtain entry of judgment against a defaulting party or to request an extension of time to apply for a default judgment within that time."
When seeking a default judgment, all Doe defendants and any other defendants must be dismissed if not served.
For more info, see CRC Rule 3.1800:
The deadline for filing a motion to set aside default will vary and depends upon the specific reason for setting aside the default. See Code of Civil Procedure section 473 and section 473.5.
Frank W. Chen has been licensed to practice law in California since 1988. The information presented here is general in nature and is not intended, nor should be construed, as legal advice for a particular case. This Avvo.com posting does not create any attorney-client relationship with the author. For specific advice about your particular situation, please consult with your own attorney.
1. The deadline for moving to set aside depends on the grounds for doing so. If the defendant argues that the failure to answer was due to some excusable mistake, the deadline is a reasonable time after entry of default, not to exceed 6 months. If the defendant claimed an attorney made an error, reasonable or not, the deadline is 6 months after entry of judgment. If the defendant claims that he was never served, he has a reasonable time after learning of the lawsuit. If the defendant was served by publication or substitute service but never received actual notice of the lawsuit, he has until two years after entry of judgment.
2. A motion to set aside the default will automatically set aside the default judgment. You need not wait for a motion to set aside before asking for a default judgment. There may never be a motion.
3. The court can enter only one judgment, so you should submit a request for dismissal of the other defendants at the same time you seek judgment against the one in default. If the other defendants are real people and not Does, you can just hold off on getting the default judgment until litigation against them is complete. If you do dismiss, be sure you do it without prejudice.
You should review the case with a local lawyer. Do you want to dismiss against the answering defts? If you dismiss, they can move for costs, and possibly atty fees. Who is going to have money to pay you if you win? The defaulting party, or the ones that answered? There are many things to consider before you move forward.
