Field-programmable gate array (FPGA)-based reconfigurable systems allow the online adaptation to dynamically changing runtime requirements. The reliability of FPGAs, being manufactured in latest technologies, is threatened by soft errors, as well as aging effects and latent defects. To ensure reliable reconfiguration, it is mandatory to guarantee the correct operation of the reconfigurable fabric. This can be achieved by periodic or on-demand online testing. This paper presents a reliable system architecture for runtime-reconfigurable systems, which integrates two nonconcurrent online test strategies: preconfiguration online tests (PRET) and postconfiguration online tests (PORT). The PRET checks that the reconfigurable hardware is free of faults by periodic or on-demand tests. The PORT has two objectives: It tests reconfigured hardware units after reconfiguration to check that the configuration process completed correctly and it validates the expected functionality. During operation, PORT is used to periodically check the reconfigured hardware units for malfunctions in the programmable logic. Altogether, this paper presents PRET, PORT, and the system integration of such test schemes into a runtime-reconfigurable system, including the resource management and test scheduling. Experimental results show that the integration of online testing in reconfigurable systems incurs only minimum impact on performance while delivering high fault coverage and low test latency.

Tara Leigh Patrick (born April 20, 1972), professionally known as Carmen Electra, is an American glamour model, actress, television personality, singer, and dancer. She gained fame for her appearances in Playboy magazine, on the MTV game show Singled Out, on the TV series Baywatch, and dancing with the Pussycat Dolls, and has since had roles in the parody films Scary Movie (as well as the fourth film), Date Movie, Epic Movie, Meet the Spartans, and Disaster Movie. Electra started her professional career in 1990 as a dancer at Kings Island amusement park in Mason, Ohio in the show "It's Magic", one of the more popular shows in the park's history. In 1991, she moved to California and met Prince. Soon after, Electra signed a recording contract with Prince'sPaisley Park Records and began a short-lived singing career. During her time at Paisley Park Records, she officially became known as Carmen Electra.
In 1995, Electra started appearing in television programs. In May 1996 she was featured in a nude pictorial in Playboymagazine, the first of several. This exposure led to higher profile television appearances, including Baywatch (cast member from 1997–1998, as Leilani "Lani" McKenzie) and MTV's Singled Out. She returned to Baywatch for the 2003 reunion movie, Baywatch: Hawaiian Wedding. Electra was featured in Playboy four more times: June 1997, December 2000, April 2003 and the January 2009 anniversary issue. She was on the cover three times: December 2000, April 2003 and on the 55th anniversary Issue in January 2009. Electra has appeared in films such as American Vampire (1997), Good Burger (1997), The Mating Habits of the Earthbound Human (1999), the horror spoof Scary Movie (2000) and also appeared in Meet the Spartans (2008), Scary Movie 4 (2006), Epic Movie (2007), Date Movie (2006), Disaster Movie (2008), the remake of the 1970s TV show Starsky & Hutch (2004) and Cheaper by the Dozen 2. She won an MTV Movie Award (best kiss) for Starsky & Hutch. She also appeared in an episode of House in which she portrayed herself as an injured golfer and an injured farmer, playing out House's fantasy. In 1999, she appeared in the Bloodhound Gang's music video of "The Inevitable Return of the Great White Dope." In 2005, she joined the voice cast of the animated series Tripping the Rift, replacing Gina Gershon as the voice of the sexy android "Six". Also in 2005, she began the Naked Women's Wrestling League, acting as the commissioner for the professional wrestling promotion. In late 2006, Carmen began to be featured in commercials by Taco Bell.

"Bolter spotlighted the showiest aspects... and made it look easy."
(National Symphony Orchestra, Washington D.C.)
- Joan Reinthaler, Washington Post
See reviews from last week's Ear Taxi Festival!
"Bolter also led Northwestern University's Bienen Contemporary Music Ensemble in the Chicago premiere of Hans Thomalla's 'Wonderblock,' a sometimes mesmerizing exploration of resonance. Movement from watery long-sustained tones to ones clipped and dry repaid significant concentration."
"…Conductor Ben Bolter was all business as he wove together Balter's imaginative soundscape, cuing the young musicians at every entrance. The members of ICE were as intriguing to watch as they were to listen to. Moving from side to side during the second movement's rhythmic ostinato, they became one with the music. As mentioned in his note, Balter sought to create a union between ICE and the youth ensemble, and, in that goal, the music was successful."
-Tyler Krause, Chicago Classical Review
"As things progressed, Bolter, standing in the only illuminated spot in the entire auditorium, was swinging his arms wildly, pointing in every direction, increasing excitement as the music got louder and louder. It felt like Michelangelo's Last Judgement in the Sistine Chapel had come alive and the end was finally upon us. When it came, the music was screeching, practically ear-splitting. Bolter slowly lowered the volume, and it all ended abruptly.
When silence was restored, I discovered I had been perspiring and my body had been trembling. In the few seconds before the thunderous applause, I was enveloped in a sense of total awe. I quickly looked around and noticed that everyone was in a state of wow and disbelief, as if we had all come to the same realization: we had just witnessed the extraordinary, greatness defined, truly one of a kind. We could only pray that, maybe, just maybe, we could live long enough to experience something this great once again."
-Louis Harris, Third Coast Review
"The culminating event of the evening concert, the world premiere of Drew Baker's 'NOX', made listeners feel as if they were living inside a giant loudspeaker, surrounded by an otherworldly continuum of sound.
Conductor Ben Bolter, presiding from the rear of the darkened stage, coordinated the far-flung performers by means of semaphore cues. The aural environment began as unpitched, barely audible murmurs and rustlings before coalescing into sustained, slowly evolving sonic planes. The graded crescendo built to an ear-piercing climax before dying away in flurries of strings, winds and percussion.
"NOX" made an altogether striking close to an absorbing, eclectic program, quite the best of the Ear Taxi events I had witnessed up to then."

Cindy is shaking with fear. She tugs at her gold necklace, shifts in her seat, slams down cup after cup of black coffee. She gets this way when she has to tell a stranger why she can't sleep at night, why she and her husband have been fighting, why she can't choke down even half her meal when she goes to a nice restaurant. Two decades ago, when Cindy (a pseudonym) was in college, a man beat and raped her. Devastated and uncertain, she had the baby but surrendered the girl for adoption.
Last summer, after soul-searching, Cindy decided to...

The campaign for Sunday's parliamentary elections has had everything Russian voters have come to expect from legislators: grandiose rhetoric, vicious attacks and very few ideas.
The campaign for Sunday's parliamentary elections has had everything Russian voters have come to expect from legislators: grandiose rhetoric, vicious attacks and very few ideas.
Character slurs rather than issues have dominated the campaign for the State Duma, the lower chamber of parliament. Political parties, ranging from Communists to pro-Western liberals, have offered the same message: only they can provide the strong leadership needed to rescue Russia and everyone else is a crook or a fool.
"Most of the parties have not offered constructive programs and built their campaigns on viciously assailing their opponents," said Yevgeny Volk, director of the Heritage Foundation's Moscow office.
Looming over the Duma race is the election next summer to replace President Boris Yeltsin - which has made the parliamentary vote even nastier.
Still, there are signs that Russian politics are becoming more stable. The new Duma may spend more time tackling issues, analysts say, a big change for a chamber notorious for incessant squabbling and occasional fist fights.
And while the Communists have a good chance of remaining the biggest party, centrist parties stand to do better, polls suggest, although they might not be able to form an effective alliance.
"These elections will lead to a political breakthrough," predicted Nikolai Petrov, an analyst at the Carnegie Moscow Center.
But if things are better in the new Duma, the election campaign has been full of the raucous rivalry that dominated the old chamber. In television elections ads, the main form of campaigning, parties compare their opponents to Josef Stalin and other dictators or suggest they have private yachts and own lots of stocks on Wall Street.
Parties rarely talk about platforms or how they would make life better in a land where the economy has been in decline for a decade, millions of workers go months without being paid and the health system, schools and other services are falling apart.
Instead, each party offers the same promise of tough leadership. The message appeals to many Russians, but there is also widespread disillusionment with politics.
"What's the point of voting. We need real leaders, but none of these politicians can fix things," said Mikhail Pankratov, an unemployed factory worker.
Altogether, 26 parties are competing in the election for the next Duma. Half of the Duma's 450 seats are filled on party lists, with groups getting more than 5 percent of the vote winning places. The other 225 seats are filled through races in electoral districts.
Opinion polls suggest up to sremlin Unity; the centrist, anti-Yeltsin Fatherland-All Russia; the social democratic Yabloko; the pro-market Union of Right Forces; and the bloc of flamboyant nationalist Vladimir Zhirinovsky.
The Duma has limited powers with the president appointing the prime minister and the Cabinet. It controls legislation and taxation, but the outgoing, Communist-dominated Duma spent the past four years quarreling with Yeltsin and losing every major confrontation with the president.
With Yeltsin barred from seeking a third term, the president's allies want to retain power by installing their own candidate and have seen the Duma vote as a first step.
So far, the Kremlin's choice to succeed Yeltsin is Prime Minister Vladimir Putin, whose handling of the war against rebels in Chechnya turned him overnight from a minor bureaucrat into the country's most popular politician.
The Kremlin in September formed a new political party, Unity, to offset its lack of support in the Duma. Unity, which also promises strong leadership and has the Kremlin bankrolling its huge campaign, is running neck-and-neck with the Communists, each polling between 17 percent and 20 percent, according to the most recent polls.
Putin, an ex-KGB officer who comes across as a tough leader, has backed Unity, headed by another man of action, Emergency Situations Minister Sergei Shoigu, one of the few popular ministers in the government.
The Kremlin has used state-controlled television to mount a slur campaign against the rival Fatherland-All Russia, headed by ex-Prime Minister Yevgeny Primakov and Moscow Mayor Yuri Luzhkov, both prominent presidential aspirants and Yeltsin opponents. News programs on state TV allege that Luzhkov is corrupt and portray the 70-year-old Primakov as too ill to hold office.
The Kremlin's campaign appears to have worked. After briefly soaring in opinion polls during the summer, Fatherland has slumped while Unity has taken off. Some analysts warn opinion polls are too crude to be reliable or are biased, but their track record is generally good.
Despite the seamy election campaign, many analysts say democracy is taking hold because all the main political parties accept that power must be transferred by the ballot.
Voting begins in the Russian Far East at 8pm GMT today and ends at 6pm GMT tomorrow in the western region of Kalingrad. The preliminary results are expected at 7am GMT on Monday.

Donaji & the Magical Poncho
This is the story of a fearless girl and her encounter with the wicked cold wind god
4.30 / 5.00 5,289 ViewsPress Start Adventures - "Lament of Ineptness"
Count Vile and Vlad hold a villains' teleconference to find a way to free Vile from Hell.
Featuring the voices of David Humphrey (SONIC ADVENTURE 2 & SONIC HEROES), George Nowik (CONTRA 4), Arin "Egoraptor" Hanson (MARVEL ULTIMATE ALLIANCE), and Peter Davis (FREESPACE 2)!
"Press Start Adventures" is a monthly animated series that follows the live-action videogame parody movie "Press Start", available on DVD at www.PressStartMovie.com.
Some folks have asked why these episodes are a little shorter than the earlier Press Start cartoons. They were originally intended for mobile devices and needed to be under 3 minutes -- ideally around 2. We've got a batch of toons already in production, but we'll revisit the length after those. Thanks for your support!
aww man
great ep as usual, but where is the episode in which Vile gets killed IT'S MISSING IN THE SERIES LIST!
Ok on another topic... YEAH GUYS of course Vlad is the awsmest HES ACTUALLY A SERIOUS BADASS (like me)
I enjoyed the gaming comedy. But the way you put it out is hilarious, keep up the good work.
hm, wait
Did i miss the part where he died, or is that only shown in the "Press Start: Movie"?
press start rocks i hope that when the good guys fight count viles army of the dead and the bad guys in the land of the living battle
"Nothing that invovles tigers or uppercuts" lol
Great movie! Favorited.

COMING TUESDAY: A Senate committee will review bipartisan energy efficiency legislation that could prove to be a bellwether of congressional appetite on energy issues.
Sens. Jeanne Shaheen (D-N.H.) and Rob Portman (R-Ohio) will trot out their bill during a Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee legislative hearing on Tuesday.
The hearing will also delve into a trio of hydropower bills expected to pass the panel at some point.
The Shaheen-Portman effort likely will, too.
It's largely the same as a version that passed the committee with broad support last session.

After years of searching I finally thought I'd found a dye I could use as I'm alergic to PPD!
Thank god I didn't put this on my skin!!!!
I purchased this product and was worried bout putting it on my skin
Before I carried out a skin test I read since reviews in this product
And frankly the information I found was scary! I didn't even risk putting it on my skin!
This is a perfect example of dangerous false advertisement! Be careful

hi just bought this hair color brand. what were the downsides of this brand?
Tks Jan
Written on: 17/11/2013
What was the product without PPD that you like? Does it have toulene-2 or ammonia? I am using a PPD free product but it is obviously some other ingredient causing me major grief and likely Toulene-2 or ammonia. Thanks.

I too had a allergic reaction to hair color several years ago. Tried at least 6 different salons using different brands of permanent color and still had the blistering, itching and rashes. I have been using a product called Palette by Nature. Absolutely no problem with the product. I have a lot of grey on top and it does cover it better but not completely. It's two step process which can be a pain and you will want to invest in a soft bonnet hair dryer as you will need to apply heat for 40 minutes. But, just grab a book or work on the computer while it works. I usually have to apply every two weeks to keep the grey from being as noticeable. Have light brown hair and the grey turns a dark blonde, but it's better than being totally grey. Nice color for the rest of my hair. It is expensive $25.00 a box, but it's the only alternative I can find. Hope this post helps. Good luck.

I don't typically sew out of season, but a recent trip to San Juan, Puerto Rico had me crafting shorts in February, and I'm glad I did! I had some fabric I recently got for free and I had just enough of this grey linen-cotton blend to make some Simplicity 7688 shorts. The pattern is from 1967, and just a breeze to throw together.
I added two inches to the hem of the shorts, but otherwise made no changes. Perfect for the Caribbean sun!
They wrinkle like hell in photos (and, of course, real life). Oh, well, that can you do?
More on my blog:
Material Notes
cotton linen blend (I think?), thrifted plastic zipper, metal snaps, polyester thread.

From Email to Marketing Automation: Making the SwitchBy Alessandra Ceresa At this point, I think we all have experimented with email marketing, and some of us swear and live by it. Email marketing is an asset to any business employing this as part of their overall marketing strategy. In fact, let's start this off with a not so little statistic. "Email is 40 times more effective at acquiring new customers than Facebook or Twitter" – McKinsey Um, hello? 40x is not a small number. I am certainly NOT discrediting Facebook or Twitter because we actually generate quite a few leads from those platforms, but I do want to emphasize that for most businesses, email is a significant lead generation tool. However, when we bring marketing automation into the mix, here's a few stats we found: 56% of companies currently use an email marketing provider and are 75% or more likely to be purchasers of marketing automation software over the next year. – VentureBeat Over 75% of email revenue is generated by triggered campaigns, rather than one-size-fits-all campaigns. Automated email campaigns account for 21% of email marketing revenue. – DMA These statistics indicate that companies are actively looking for ways to improve their marketing efforts and overall customer experiences. Unlike traditional email, marketing automation allows you to employ what marketers like to call lifecycle marketing. This means that the right content is sent to the right person at the right time during their buying process. Messages are personalized and only deliver the most appropriate information for that stage in the sales process. It also allows you to send customized offers and other content based on their particular demographics and behaviors. Marketing automation also allows you to efficiently and effectively bring other channels into the mix such as social media, online live chat, events, and more, while streamlining and improving your sales and marketing processes. Not to mention, it gives you great visibility into how all of your channels and efforts are converting your leads into clients and inspiring engagement. To put simply, marketing automation maximizes your performance while minimizing your effort. Sounds great, right? So, how does one successfully transition from email to marketing automation?
Another key reason to implement marketing automation? It significantly improves collaboration on your team resulting in happier employees and ultimately a better customer experience.

It came just a year after the nine-time champion was defeated in the quarter-finals by nemesis Djokovic — only his second ever defeat at the French Open.
Tellingly, the hammer-blow also comes just a week away from his 30th birthday.
At least Nadal had the comfort of making it to Paris this year.
Federer, 34, pulled out on the eve of the tournament with a back injury, ending a run of 65 consecutive Grand Slam appearances stretching back to the 1999 US Open.
Both men insist they are not finished with careers that have brought 17 majors for Federer and 14 for Nadal.
"I remain as motivated and excited as ever and my plan is to achieve the highest level of fitness before returning to the ATP World Tour for the upcoming grass court season," said Federer when he withdrew from Paris.
Federer's greatest triumphs have come at Wimbledon where he is a seven-time champion.
However, the Swiss, who has played just four tournaments in 2016, will be 35 in August and history is against him.
Arthur Ashe was the oldest man to win at the All England Club just a month short of his 32nd birthday in 1975.
Ken Rosewall was 37 when he became the oldest Slam winner of all time at the 1972 Australian Open.
But Ashe and Rosewall belong to a very different era when the sport was played at a more sober pace in the infancy of the professional age.
Federer has not won a Slam since Wimbledon in 2012 whereas Nadal's most recent major was in Paris in 2014.
Nadal will be almost 31 in 2017 if he returns to play the French Open, the tournament where he captured his first Slam as a 19-year-old in 2005.
He may be encouraged by the fact that the oldest winner in Paris was Andres Gimeno who was well past 34 in 1972.
But for Federer and Nadal it's all a far cry from the days when their combined 31 Slams came from the 44 played between the Swiss star's 2003 Wimbledon breakthrough and Nadal's ninth French Open two years ago.
Nadal, who had showed signs of a renaissance this year after his worst season as a professional in 2015, remains confident that his career is not over.
"This is a tough moment and the toughest press conference I have ever had to give but it's not the end," said the Spaniard who, nevertheless, faces a race against time to be fit for Wimbledon next month.
Nadal's lifelong friend, French player Richard Gasquet said he was hopeful of seeing the world number five back in action.
"I have a lot of respect for him, and I feel sorry. If he's decided to stop, it must be serious," said Gasquet.
"It can't be something small. He's had small things and he knows to deal with pain. This time it must be serious. It's a big loss for the tournament, and I hope he will recover.
"That's the most important. I hope he will recover quickly and come back to the circuit."
However, the physical and psychological threat posed by world number one Djokovic remains a mighty obstacle.
Djokovic leads Federer 23-22 in head to heads and has taken seven of their last 10 meetings.
Against Nadal, Djokovic is 26-23 to the good, winning 11 of the last 12.
