INDUSTRY - Angels officials have had preliminary talks about moving the Major League Baseball franchise from Anaheim to Industry, according to a source with close ties to Industry City Hall.
The team's lease at Angel Stadium in Anaheim is up in 2016, and the Angels at that time would either have to renew their agreement until 2029 or move to a new home.
Angels owner Arte Moreno has said in the past that he would need to know this year or next whether he should stay in Anaheim or move the team.
While officials at Majestic Realty Co. are still working hard to bring a National Football League team to Industry, they are open to building a baseball stadium instead, according to the source.
Billionaire developer and Majestic Realty Co. owner Ed Roski Jr. in 2008 announced plans to build a 75,000-seat National Football League stadium on 592 acres of publicly owned land on the east side of the city near Walnut and Diamond Bar.
The Industry location is about 19 miles north of Angel Stadium.
When Roski first announced his NFL stadium plan, he called it a "sure thing" and a "certainty." But Roski has failed to convince a team owner to sell him a major share of a franchise. Meanwhile, a competing proposal in downtown Los Angeles by the Anschutz Entertainment Group, dubbed Farmers Field, has grabbed most of the recent headlines.
Angels spokesman Tim Mead said Wednesday he would not comment on a rumor.
Ben Porritt, the spokesman for Roski and Majestic pointman John Semcken, did not return two telephone calls or an email.
Industry City Manager Kevin Radecki was out of the office Wednesday.
Semcken did not return a call to his office.
Semcken in the past has said he did not think that Moreno would be interested in moving his team from Anaheim.
Roski's NFL proposal was met by stiff opposition in Walnut and Diamond Bar. In response to challenges from residents living in the two adjacent cities, Industry officials have agreed to help fund improvements in both.
Those agreements are specific to an NFL stadium.
Those who opposed an NFL stadium said they also would oppose a baseball complex.
"I guess we're going to have to get out our picket signs again," said James Hayes, a Diamond Bar resident who opposes an NFL stadium.
Instead of 10-12 games a year common for an NFL team, baseball teams have 81 regular-season home games annually, plus potential exhibition and postseason games.
"All the traffic would be horrible," Hayes said. "It would be maybe better than football in some ways. Maybe the fans would not be as radical, like having Raiders fans, but it sure would bring a lot of cars. We would oppose it, definitely."
The Los Angeles Daily News and the Los Angeles Times reported in April that Moreno met with Tim Leiweke, the lead for Anschutz Entertainment Group. Pundits speculated that Angels officials would consider moving the team to a new stadium in downtown Los Angeles.
Angels officials at that time declined to discuss stadium issues publicly.
AEG this week was put up for sale by owner Philip Anschutz. Economists and sports experts spent the past two days debating whether the potential sale of AEG helps or hurts the chances of developing a downtown Los Angeles stadium.
Sports economist Rob Baade said he would not be surprised if the Angels were shopping around for potential stadium deals.
"It's a negotiating chip," said Baade, who did work to analyze the economic impact of Staples Center in Los Angeles. "That's always the way it's done. They would use a proposal in Industry or some other place in their negotiations with the current stadium owners."
Despite an offseason spending spree that included signing slugger Albert Pujols and pitcher C.J. Wilson, the Angels have yet to secure a playoff spot and are seeing smaller crowds this year.
Baade said a new stadium brings more opportunities to make money compared to refurbishing an old stadium.
And every owner needs bargaining leverage, he said.
"They've got to have an option, because it strengthens the negotiation position," he said.

I played around with Haskell in 2000-2001 with a network engineer colleague, and became somewhat proficient with elementary aspects, while working for Boeing as an airline flight instructor, using $40 million airline simulators.
Now a decade later, I am operating CNC Mills to produce precision aerospace parts, and would like to see a development group established to write Haskell code for these computerized machines which currently use G-code. Perhaps standards should be set by a steering group to enable a Haskell-to-G-code compiler or interpreter.
Any ideas??? This could really become a world-wide effort, and revolutionize the computerized machine industry!!! I hope this blurb catches everyone's interest.
Haskell is the absolute best language to do this. Let's do it!

This sounds interesting, but it is better to start a discussion on the Haskell/Haskell-cafe mailinglist, not many people read user pages. (Note: the Haskell mailinglist can only be used to start a discussion, the rest of the discussion should be done via Haskell-cafe.) Henk-Jan van Tuyl 21:13, 13 January 2013 (UTC)

I'm surprised to hear that bcm4318 is not working on bt3 and partially working on bt4 (beta or pre-final?).
BT3 would be using the non-mac80211 equivalent driver known as bcm43xx which is fairly limited support and is deprecated in favour of a common mac80211 stack which unifies many chipsets/drivers into one base, etc. A tell tale sign would be ethX entry for bcm43xx
BT4 and the driver used is b43 which is the latter and much favoured as it uses mac80211 stack. Injection should work with literally most if not all parts when used with bt4pf (the latter the kernel version, the better generally). The interface for the device will appear as wlan0.
It should not fail at packet injection if you are using backtrack as those drivers came pre-patched and ready for injection. Injection tests are just random mac assignments probing on a randomly found AP. If your injection fails, you are probably running things like networkmanager, wpa_supplicant, dhclient, airodump-ng, kismet which you shouldn't be as it will mess around with the modes on the interface as listed. Try killing such processes and any other ones that are tampering with the device (iwevent can sometimes be helpful here) and try again.
10,000 packets is more like 10,000 IVs but it depends on your network and how long is the key length, the longer it is, the more IVs it will require. Furthermore if injection does fail, you can always do passively rfmon on the same channel and on single AP. Have another client using wireless to send packets back and forth and your IVs will eventually increase. Remember, injection is optional and is not mandatory if you are breaking your own network :P
I have bcm4318 (linksys wpc54gv3) it works but because its pcmcia card with no external antenna connector, the range is a little poor and at times I have to re-orientate my laptop to pick up an AP at times.
Yes only USB is supported, nothing else.

When the Six 2 Six clothing and accessories store moved to a bigger location on south Myrtle Avenue in Monrovia, the shop was hoping for a boost in holiday sales.
But in the months leading up to Christmas that hope seemed to dim, according to owner Luis Lemus.
"I felt like it was not how I expected it to be," Lemus said. "It picked up in the three days before Christmas, but before that it was slow ... I was getting kind of worried."
If national figures released Wednesday are any indication, Lemus had a right to be worried.
A MasterCard Advisors SpendingPulse report reveals that sales of electronics, clothing, jewelry and home goods in the two months before Christmas increased just 0.7 percent compared with last year.
That was well below the healthy 3 to 4 percent growth analysts had expected - and it was the worst year-over-year performance since 2008, when spending shrank sharply during the Great Recession.
Stores will have to scramble to salvage this year's holiday season, which can account for up to 40 percent of annual sales for many retailers.
If those sales don't materialize, stores are forced to offer steeper discounts. That's a boon for shoppers, but it cuts into stores' profits.
An employee from Ben Bridge Jewelers in Santa Clarita offered more evidence that consumers were pulling back in the weeks leading up to Christmas.
"It wasn't good ... I don't know what else to tell you," said the employee, who declined to give her name. "People just aren't spending as much as they would have in the past."
Retailers still have time to make up lost ground. The final week of December accounts for about 15 percent of the month's sales, according to Michael McNamara, vice president for research and analysis at MasterCard Advisors SpendingPulse.
But will they regain ground?
"Retail can change quite a bit, but my view is that they won't," said Michael Carney, an economist at Cal Poly Pomona. "I think things haven't changed that much since last year and the numbers seem to reflect that."
Carney noted that stores continue to offer deep discounts and are launching Black Friday sales earlier and earlier each year.
The Black Friday "creep" of launching sales earlier began in earnest a few years ago when stores realized that sales alone weren't enough to lure shoppers anymore, especially with Americans becoming more comfortable buying things online.
Kimberly Ritter-Martinez, an economist with the Los Angeles County Economic Development Corp., doesn't expect a big jump in retail sales anytime soon.
"I don't think we are going to see a last minute surge in spending between now and the end of the year, even with steep after-Christmas discounts," Ritter-Martinez said in an email. "The story of retail sales since the end of the recession mirrors that of so many other sectors in the economy - we are seeing improvement, but progress has been slow and hard won."
Consumers seemed to be more optimistic about the future going into the holidays, she said, although they were still cautious.
"I think a lot of people went into the holiday season with a budget in mind and kept to it," she said.
Justin Paraiso, a sales associate at the Radio Shack store on 4th Street in Ontario, said business was slow there until last week.
"It was mostly people just calling around to see if we had certain products in stock," he said. "Our tablets were the first thing to go. We were pretty much out of stock on those at all the Radio Shack stores."
Some retail executives don't yet have a handle on how sales turned out but did see some hopeful signs.
"We can't provide any specific numbers," said Shoshana Puccia, director of marketing at the Glendale Galleria.
But she said merchants there did notice more "wish list" buying this season than a year ago.
"We saw a lot of designer brand bags with higher priced items being carried about the mall and those are wish list items," Pucci said.
Shoppers did hit the mall, too. "On Christmas Eve ... our parking lot was full," she said.

Our Daily Correspondent
Don't Hold BackBy Sadie Stein
Each member of my family has quirks and foibles. I stomp my foot like a cartoon furious person when I lose my temper, and I once humiliated myself the one time I attempted the road test by waiting ten minutes to turn at an intersection, panicking, and nearly hitting an oncoming car. My brother pulls a weird, unconscious face whenever he passes a mirror; he will never live down the years he spent, as late as the first grade, refusing to wear clothing. My dad is mocked regularly for getting ketchup all over his face and for insisting on down jackets in seventy-degree weather. And then there's my mom's thing. It's probably very unwise of me to write what I am about to write while I am staying with my parents. But I am, like pope emeritus Benedict XVI, a Servant of the Truth.
Although she's an excellent cook and great company, my mom is a nervous hostess. She finds the demands of guests and meal-planning onerous—terrifying, even. By the time dinner is served, she has generally worked herself into an anxious frenzy. I'm sure most people at the table can't tell; to her family, the signs are unmistakable.
At some point in the meal, a wild look will come into her eyes. Her hands will clench. It is as though she is possessed. A conversation may be in progress; someone may be mid-anecdote. It matters not. As though powerless to prevent the words, she will suddenly declaim:
"DON'T HOLD BACK. THERE'S MORE OF EVERYTHING!" Read More

St. Vincent unveils signature coffee blend
Listen to St. Vincent on iHeartRadio
St. Vincent is getting into the coffee business. The singer-songwriter born Annie Clark is teaming up with Chicago-based coffee company Intelligentsia on a signature blend they're calling "Bring Me Your Mugs."
The name is a play on the track "Bring Me Your Loves" from Clark's new self-titled St. Vincent album.
Clark says she was "thrilled" when Intelligentsia came to her with the collaboration, adding that she waits in line at their coffee shop with the same eagerness she has while waiting in line for a concert.
"Bring Us Your Mugs" is available now at those Intelligentsia stores, and it's expected to be available on the St. Vincent website soon.

We weren't aware until Halloween that November is Movember, a month set aside solely for the development and care of a mustache to promote awareness of prostate cancer.
Movember was launched in Australia in 2004 and moved to our shores in 2007, and Halloween 2012 is when we first became aware of it.
Despite the fact that every single day, week and month is dedicated to the promotion of some sort of awareness, we manage to stumble through most spans of time merrily unaware of the subject at hand.
January soared by without us even having an inkling of awareness of mentoring, glaucoma or personal self-defense, though it was the designated awareness month of all those things.
In February, we were totally aware of African-American history, and we might've noticed that it was also American Heart month, but nowhere on our radar were the issues of eating disorder screenings or children's dental health.
In March we were somewhat aware of the Red Cross and Women's history, but we could just kick ourself for our unawareness of self-harm issues.
We didn't know April was Scottish-American Heritage Month; that May was Older Americans Month and Haitian Heritage Month; that June was a month given over to the awareness of aphasia, myasthenia gravis and scleroderma; that July was Group B Strep and Purposeful Parenting month; that awareness was to have been aimed at cataracts in August; children's good manners in September; lupus, books and Filipinos in October, or mustaches as symbols of awareness of prostate cancer until Halloween.
Those of you who are awareness-aware will want to know what color of ribbon to wear during Movember. There are some novelty ribbons, with pictures of mustaches, available online, though you should probably go with light blue, the color of prostate awareness ribbons.
You should be aware, however, that displaying a light blue ribbon could also mark you as a person who is aware of dysautonomia or as a supporter of the 2011 student protests in Chile.
Almost every color or even design has been adopted by a cause in the hyper-aware 21st century. Yellow, which started the whole ribbon thing, is not reserved for soldier support as it once was. It's also used for bone cancer, giving prisoners a second chance and suicide prevention awareness.
Everybody's favorite color is everybody's favorite ribbon. Blue ribbons have symbolized no fewer than 16 causes, including child abuse awareness, human trafficking and sex slavery awareness and Canada's National Non Smoking Week participation. And that's not even counting the blue ribbon that's awarded for excellence in everything from apple pie-baking at the Orange County Fair to Pabst's first-place finish at the World's Columbian Exposition in Chicago in 1893.
You see someone sporting a purple ribbon and you can't be sure whether the wearer is a victim of homophobia, someone making a stand against animal cruelty, or is simply aware of migraines, domestic violence, and/or drug overdose. Purple is also the overall color of general cancer awareness and pagans.
And it's not just your Crayola Crayons 8-pack of colors that have been taken: Jade is for awareness about hepatitis B and liver cancer, periwinkle covers the awarenesses of stomach cancer, eating disorders and pulmonary hypertension; pink-and-blue ribbons are for pro-life, male breast cancer and infertility awareness.
How about a zebra-pattern ribbon? Surely no one has co-opted the zebra pattern. Three groups, at least, thought they were unique in selecting a zebra pattern to promote the awareness of their cause: rare disease, carcinoid and neuroendocrine tumor and Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome.
But right now? Mustaches, remember? That's what we're aware of starting today. Locally, the big Movember party HQ is 4th Street Vine, at 2142 Fourth St., where they're throwing the second annual "Shave the Date" party tonight from 6 to 10 p.m.
The bash features licensed barbers (you need to start Movember clean-shaven), plus live music and hot dogs from Dogfellas.
It's the first of three Movember parties at 4th Street Vine, with a check-in party on Nov. 14 and the Mustache Showcase Party Nov. 30, both from 6 to 10 p.m.

SATURDAY, CONTINUED: We were driving back from the VW dealer where we took the car to have its brake lights replaced because we couldn't manage it ourself because we're something like half a man and now it's going to cost $1,875 because the mechanic managed to helpfully find other things wrong with the car, when we got a call from our daughter that our dog Jimmy had scampered off into the wild.
Turns out we'd left the back gate open when we were attempting the art of light bulb installation.
Jimmy is more than 16 years old. He's basically blind and deaf; his back legs don't work too well. If we took him to an Australian shepherd dealership, the mechanic would say "Everything from the femur to the fibula on both the rear driver and passenger legs is shot, the front passenger side dewclaw is gone, there's a toe missing from the front driver side paw, both rear hocks need to be replaced and the muzzle should be blown out. You're looking at $2,200."
Of course, we were frantic. Our neighborhood is full of serpentine streets laid out by a developer who was trying to get away from the whole "straight lines" idea.
When we got to our neighborhood, an Animal Services guy was already there looking around, our son Ray was driving around and we called our great friend Charlie who dropped everything to join the search with his daughter Maxine.
We all drove and drove, totally saturating the streets near our house before tossing out a wider net. It's like when you lose your car keys and you look three or four times in the usual places before you have to start looking in stupid spots like air vents and the crisper drawer in the fridge.
After an hour, we decided to call Animal Care and shimmied up the phone tree until we got a lady who asked us what kind of dog we have (Australian) and our cross streets (Palo Verde and Wardlow).
"We've got a Chihuahua up by Olive Avenue," she chirped. Then, she kept saying stuff like that over and over, each time getting our hopes up: "Wait a minute ..." she paused. "OK, we've got a wire terrier up in North Long Beach. It's a female. Is your dog a female?"
"Male," we said. "A non-wire terrier in East Long Beach."
"Hold it. We've got a toy poodle. Black. Near the Traffic Circle."
We hung up before she started talking about kangaroos and parrots.
Rain was coming and we imagined our faithful dog curled up, exhausted and confused, beneath a hibiscus plant somewhere far away, so we drove on, up and down avenues we've never seen before.
Eventually, it dawned on us that Jimmy's tag might have our old phone number on it. We drove home, dug our old cellphone out of the junk drawer and plugged it in and then motored off to rejoin the hunt, where we kept seeing the same joggers and people walking their leashed dogs. We called our son and had him check the old phone back at the house.
There were two messages from some neighbors who live just a block from our house. They had Jimmy. The sun came out and all the angels and the saints sang.
We went over with our daughter to pick him up, braced for a joyous reunion in which Jimmy would launch himself at us, knocking us to the ground and covering us with slobbering kisses.
When we got there, James was lying on the rug in the family room, surrounded by teenage girls and their mother. He looked at us like our face rang a bell.
"We washed him and fed him and we've just been sitting here petting him," said the woman, still scratching Jimmy's ears as he lost all interest in us. (We are an idiot for forgetting her and her husband's names, such was our relief at finding Jimmy. We welcome your thinking less of us.)
Eventually, we wrenched him from his little paradise and got him into the car and then to his real house, where he sprawled, as he always does, on our king-size bed, which is only king-size to him. Our wife and we each are allotted a little strip on the outer edges about half the size of an Army cot.
We sat next to him and watched Jimmy dream of all those houses out there, and how his research has shown that they're all full of loving people who will give him treats and even baths that aren't too horrible and rugs in front of the fireplace.
Jimmy used to talk to us, for column purposes. For a columnist, a talking dog is golden. He's not too chatty these days, but he did manage to let us know that, while it's good to be home, he'll be watching the back gate closely.

With an electric mixer, blend all ingredients on low speed for 5 minutes; for hand mixer use high speed. Color Flow icing "crusts" quickly so keep it covered with a damp cloth while using.
To "soften" or thin for filling in, add ½ teaspoon water to ¼ cup of icing (add just a few drops at a time as you near proper consistency). Color flow is ready for filling in outlines when a small amount dropped back into the mixture takes a count of 10 to disappear.
Stir in Wilton Icing Color as desired. Dried color flow will fade slightly when exposed to fluorescent and bright sunlight, so keep dried color flow pieces covered until cake is ready to assemble.
This recipe makes 2 cups plus 2 tablepoons full strength icing.

Saturday, July 2 2011 - 9/11 Consequences
Torture crimes officially, permanently shielded
By Glenn Greenwald
In August, 2009, Attorney General Eric Holder -- under continuous, aggressive prodding by the Obama White House -- announced that three categories of individuals responsible for Bush-era torture crimes would be fully immunized from any form of criminal investigation and prosecution: (1) Bush officials who ordered the torture (Bush, Cheney, Rice, Powell, Ashcroft, Rumsfeld); (2) Bush lawyers who legally approved it (Yoo, Bybee, Levin), and (3) those in the CIA and the military who tortured within the confines of the permission slips they were given by those officials and lawyers (i.e., "good-faith" torturers). The one exception to this sweeping immunity was that low-level CIA agents and servicemembers who went so far beyond the torture permission slips as to basically commit brutal, unauthorized murder would be subject to a "preliminary review" to determine if a full investigation was warranted -- in other words, the Abu Ghraib model of justice was being applied, where only low-ranking scapegoats would be subject to possible punishment while high-level officials would be protected.
Yesterday, it was announced that this "preliminary review" by the prosecutor assigned to conduct it, U.S. Attorney John Durham, is now complete, and -- exactly as one would expect -- even this category of criminals has been almost entirely protected, meaning a total legal whitewash for the Bush torture regime:
The two token cases to be investigated involve the most grotesque brutality imaginable: they apparently are (1) a detainee who froze to death in an American secret prison in Afghanistan in 2002 after being ordered stripped and chained to a concrete floor, and (2) the 2003 death of a detainee at Abu Ghraib whose body was infamously photographed by guards giving a thumbs-up sign. All other crimes in the Bush torture era will be fully protected. Lest there be any doubt about what a profound victory this is for those responsible for the torture regime, consider the reaction of the CIA:
Consider what's being permanently shielded from legal accountability. The Bush torture regime extended to numerous prisons around the world, in which tens of thousands of mostly Muslim men were indefinitely imprisoned without a whiff of due process, and included a network of secret prisons -- "black sites" -- purposely placed beyond the monitoring reach of even international human rights groups, such as the International Red Cross.
Over 100 detainees died during U.S. interrogations, dozens due directly to interrogation abuse. Gen. Barry McCaffrey said: "We tortured people unmercifully. We probably murdered dozens of them during the course of that, both the armed forces and the C.I.A." Maj. Gen. Antonio Taguba, who oversaw the official investigation into detainee abuse, wrote: "there is no longer any doubt as to whether the current administration has committed war crimes. The only question that remains to be answered is whether those who ordered the use of torture will be held to account."
Thanks to the Obama DOJ, that is no longer in question. The answer is resoundingly clear: American war criminals, responsible for some of the most shameful and inexcusable crimes in the nation's history -- the systematic, deliberate legalization of a worldwide torture regime -- will be fully immunized for those crimes. And, of course, the Obama administration has spent years just as aggressively shielding those war criminals from all other forms of accountability beyond the criminal realm: invoking secrecy and immunity doctrines to prevent their victims from imposing civil liability, exploiting their party's control of Congress to suppress formal inquiries, and pressuring and coercing other nations not to investigate their own citizens' torture at American hands.
All of those efforts, culminating in yesterday's entirely unsurprising announcement, means that the U.S. Government has effectively shielded itself from even minimal accountability for its vast torture crimes of the last decade. Without a doubt, that will be one of the most significant, enduring and consequential legacies of the Obama presidency.

you see they are comfortable using the web, consider giving them a selection of web gift vouchers. That way they can select precisely what they need.
Buying for near acquaintances and loved ones is typically easier. You usually know what they need and with online shopping coupons you can find those items and hopefully save a bit of money. There are coupons available for everything from DVD's to furniture. Dozens of sites do books and for the children on your list you can utilise online shopping coupons to pick up the items they need at a discounted price.
It can take a little looking to get these kinds of bargains. Your first stop should be one of those sites that only do coupons. A lot of these sites have hundreds of different coupons all offering bargains on several goods. Online shopping coupons typically consist of a special numbered code that you submit at check-out.
When looking for something in particular like a rebate on airfare or a hotel consider performing a search targeted entirely on that. You can generate some great results and then it's simply a matter of looking at which coupons will save you the most money. There are however several bulletin boards devoted to saving money online and others posting could have specific valuable information concerning where to source the better bargains.
Never miss out on any special offers that offer free postage and packaging. If you are getting several items these shipping fees can add up very quickly and with web shopping coupons that provide free postage and packaging you will be saving a decent chunk of change.
Many web merchants acknowledge the importance of repeat business and will mail special Internet mail updates to their clients. Very often they will provide online shopping coupons as an incentive for their clients to purchase once more. Make use of these offers whenever you can and you will take delight in some wholesome reductions.

Explore health content from A to Z.
I need information about...
This test measures the amount of an isoenzyme of creatine kinase (CK) in your blood. It is called CK-MB.
Your body makes 3 forms of CK, including CK-MB. CK is found in the heart, muscles, and other organs. These include the small intestine, brain, and uterus. If you have a heart attack, injured heart muscle cells release CK-MB into your blood.
Because many tissues contain CK, high levels of CK can be a sign of a variety of problems. Higher CK-MB may point more directly to heart damage.
Each year millions of Americans visit the emergency room with chest pain, but only a fraction of those people are actually having a heart attack or another serious, sudden heart problem. This test helps your doctor figure out whether you're having a heart attack.
Measuring CK-MB used to be a common tool for diagnosing heart attacks, but doctors use it less often today. Cardiac troponin is now the test of choice for finding a heart attack. This is because cardiac troponin is more specific and more sensitive than CK-MB.
You may have this test if your doctor thinks you are having a heart attack. Symptoms of a heart attack often include:
Pain or discomfort in the chest, such as a squeezing sensation or feeling of fullness
Pain in the neck, back, left arm, or jaw
Shortness of breath
Lightheadedness or dizziness
Nausea or vomiting
Sudden sweating
Your doctor may also order a test to measure cardiac troponin, or CTn. This test is more commonly used than CK-MB because it more specifically shows heart damage.
Your doctor may also order an electrocardiogram, or ECG, to measure electrical activity in your heart and help diagnose a heart attack.
Many things may affect your lab test results. These include the method each lab uses to do the test. Even if your test results are different from the normal value, you may not have a problem. To learn what the results mean for you, talk with your healthcare provider.
Levels of CK-MB do not rise in your blood within the first 4 to 6 hours after a heart attack. You may need to have repeated tests to see if you've had a heart attack.
Higher levels of CK-MB may mean that you have had a heart attack or have other heart problems. These include:
Myocarditis, an infection and inflammation of the heart muscle
Pericarditis, an infection and inflammation of the thin sac that surrounds the heart
Cardiac defibrillation, when an electric shock is used to fix the heart rhythm
Higher levels of CK-MB may also mean more of the heart was damaged in the attack.
Higher levels may also be caused by muscle damage elsewhere in your body, by diseases that affect your muscles, and by trauma to your chest.
The test requires a blood sample, which is drawn through a needle from a vein in your arm.
Taking a blood sample with a needle carries risks that include bleeding, infection, bruising, or feeling dizzy. When the needle pricks your arm, you may feel a slight stinging sensation or pain. Afterward, the site may be slightly sore.
Timing is important. If you have the test too soon after a heart attack, your may have a false-negative result.
Strenuous exercise and cocaine use can also affect your results.
You don't need to prepare for this test. But be sure your doctor knows about all medicines, herbs, vitamins, and supplements you are taking. This includes medicines that don't need a prescription and any illicit drugs you may use.

Confessions of a Bedtime Book Listener
September 27th, 2012
Dear George,
I love your voice. It soothes me with its deep, dark and nuanced tones. In your voice, I can hear every human emotion – love, longing, sorrow and regret. I adore how sometimes you are French, or you might be Icelandic, or even from Baltimore. Your voice morphs into characters that are young or old, man or woman. How do you do it? When you read to me I understand the book better than if I had read it myself.
…And then on a good night, I drift off to sleep in the middle of a sentence. Yes, these are the confessions of a bedtime audiobook listener and you, George Guidall, are the premiere voice of audiobooks.
We've had an amazing relationship for 25 years. You've been in my bedside CD player and in the car with me, telling me the most amazing stories. I loved you in Anne Tyler's Accidental Tourist, The Weatherman by Thayer and and Philip Roth's recent books; I was moved by Widow for One Year and the Hour I First Believed. The Corrections was my absolute favorite and I recommend it frequently.
George, I'd love to meet you in person. I want to know the secrets of your craft and to hear about your fascinating career. Most importantly, I want to say thank you for the many great reads you've brought me. And now that there are over 200 of your readings available at OneClick digital, I can't wait to start working my way through those, too. Your voice is what I use to relax, but I promise not to fall asleep when I hear you live at the Elkton Central Library on Thursday, October 4th at 7pm.
Sincerely, your fan,

Bryan Matthews '75 M'86
Bryan was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 1996. His citation is below:
Bryan L. Matthews has to be classified as one of the most outstanding lacrosse goalies ever to represent Washington College. He contributed significantly to the success of the lacrosse teams during the years 1972 through 1975.
His save record over four years proves that he was an excellent defensive goalie yet he made significant contributions offensively as well – his agility out of the goal with his accurate passwork often resulted in a fast break goal for the Shoremen. His saves over four years total 821 – 27 in 8 games in a reserve role in 1972, 297 in 17 games in 1973 - when he made his first appearance in a national championship game, 235 in 14 games in 1974, and 262 in 15 games in 1975. In a 18-12 victory over the University of Maryland Baltimore County, he stopped a single-game career-high of 30 shots.
With Matthews in the goal, the 1975 team went 12 and 3, winning another shot at the NCAA Division II-III Championship. Bryan was selected All-American in 1974 and 1975, was a team tri-captain in 1974 and 1975, was selected MVP in 1975, and was Washington College's overall Outstanding Male Athlete in 1975.
In 1977, Bryan returned to Washington College as a member of the Admissions Staff and as assistant lacrosse coach. In 1978, he was appointed Head Lacrosse Coach, a position he held until 1982. His coaching tenure at Washington College was highly successful with his 1982 team losing a heartbreaker in overtime to Hobart College in the NCAA Division III championship game. For his outstanding coaching performance in 1982, he was selected as the NCAA Division III Lacrosse Coach of the Year.
In 1983, he assumed the head lacrosse coaching position at the U.S. Naval Academy and in 1986 was voted Division I Coach of the Year. When the Athletic Director's position at Washington College became vacant in 1994, Bryan returned to his alma mater to direct the athletic destiny of the college.
While in college, Bryan was an outstanding student and was very active in the affairs of the Lambda Pi Delta Fraternity, serving as the president his senior year.
Washington College considers it an honor to induct Bryan L. Matthews into its Athletic Hall of Fame on this 5th day of October, 1996.

A 77-year-old Salt Lake County man will serve at least 12 years in the Utah State Prison for arranging to pay a prostitute to have sex with her children.
Ray Alvin Stephenson, who pleaded guilty in 3rd District Court to two first-degree felony counts of criminal solicitation in October, was sentenced Monday to two consecutive terms of six years to life in prison by Judge Denise Lindberg. As part of a plea deal, four other counts of criminal solicitation were dismissed.
Stephenson began texting a woman in early June who was offering sex with her two female children, 9 and 11, for $100, according to charging documents.
He was arrested in July onboard a Nevada-bound bus. Stephenson had booked a hotel room in Las Vegas and was carrying luggage containing sex toys, petroleum jelly and $440 in cash.
The woman, who Stephenson believed to be a prostitute from Las Vegas, was actually an FBI agent who specializes in Internet crimes against children.
After his arrest in July, Stephenson admitted to police that he had made arrangements to have sex with the two children. He also admitted to having sex with another Las Vegas prostitute's children about 20 years ago. According to court documents, Stephenson said he "victimized the children … for a period of time until the prostitute moved from Las Vegas."

Photos: Protesters Gather at Los Angeles Federal Courthouse to Protest Trayvon Martin Verdict
A series of demonstrations throughout Southern California decrying the acquittal of George Zimmerman in the killing of Trayvon Martin remained peaceful Saturday.
In Los Angeles, the morning started with a rally of about 500 people in front of the Federal Courthouse Building on Spring Street, organized by the local chapter of Al Sharpton's National Action Network. The event was staged as part of a nationwide day of protest calling for the federal government to investigate possible charges against Zimmerman for civil rights violations relating to the shooting death of the unarmed teenager in Florida.
Following the rally, a group of more than 200 separated from the main group and began marching through downtown Los Angeles. The demonstrators made it to MacArthur Park, encouraging other pedestrians to join them.
The group later split into two, with one headed to Leimert Park, the site of several protests earlier this week; the other returned to the Federal Courthouse Building.
Both groups were escorted by LAPD officers, who blocked intersections for the groups to pass. An LAPD helicopter also hovered overhead.
"It's been very peaceful throughout the entire city," said LAPD spokeswoman Officer Sara Faden. She confirmed that no arrests were made.
The protesters that returned to the courthouse, numbering between 75 and 100, were joined by additional protesters at the courthouse, and the crowd nearly doubled in size. They chanted "Trayvon Martin stood his ground" as passers-by honked horns in support.
"We need to do this because right now because we need to stop stand your ground from moving to other states," said Eme Ikwakor, 28, of Koreatown, who led the group that headed back to the courthouse. Ikwakor said that he wasn't part of any particular group, but had taken the lead when the groups split.
"I felt like they needed a voice, and right now it's important because we're seeing everyone come together around this," Ikwakor said.
The second group headed to Leimert Park, but the crowd had dwindled to about 30 protesters by the time they arrived at the park, eight miles from their starting point. Additional protesters joined the group at the park, but the number actively involved in the protest was unclear.
At one point during the march, California Highway Patrol officers were stationed at entrances to 10 Freeway at Crenshaw Boulevard as a precaution in case protesters attempted to block the freeway, which happened during a protest July 16. No protesters entered the freeway.
Rev. K.W. Tulloss, president of the LA chapter of the National Action Network, who organized the morning rally and prayer vigil, called an end to the event around 11 a.m., two hours after it began. He urged protesters to leave the area and head home, saying there would be no march.
"We've been in partnership with law enforcement in planning this," he said. "We wanted to have an event that was as peaceful as possible and make sure our message was heard."
Protesters at the morning rally were a mix of young and old and varying ages. Several young boys held signs saying "I am Trayvon Martin."
In addition to supporters and members of the National Action Network, the rally drew out other activist groups calling for a wide variety of demands that went beyond the Zimmerman case, including the Koreatown-headquartered Labor Community Strategy Center.
"There are a lot of people out here with different demands," said Ron Collins, 23, who works for the center. "But it all falls under the umbrella of civil rights. Trayvon is the rallying point for those discussions."
Similar protests took place throughout Southern California, with events in Palmdale, San Bernardino, Riverside and Victorville.
No arrests were reported at any of the events.

It seems like in this day and age; computers should be able to do more of our work for us. Just last week, I was working on a project and I had to print 30 different web pages, and set the same special printer settings for each one. Talk about something being painstakingly boring! So, I searched for a solution and found Auto Clicker Typer, which is a macro recorder. A macro is a set of instructions for your computer, and Auto Clicker Typer records and automates mouse clicks and keyboard strokes in a macro. Your computer executes these instructions as if you were sitting at the desk doing them yourself! Try and think of some boring repetitive tasks that you have to do on a regular basis… Auto Clicker Typer can and will do them for you!
Auto Clicker Typer's download page can be found here. Near the bottom of the page, you'll find, Please Click Here to start your download.
Follow the simple setup wizard. In the final step, the wizard will ask you if you'd like to install a new search engine. If you're not interested, be sure to uncheck the Install checkbox.
Double click the Auto Clicker Typer icon on the desktop, and presto, it opens!
To become familiar with how to use Auto Clicker Typer, let's learn the two main hot keys. Hit the Hot Keys button.
Here we can see to begin recording our macro we type Ctrl+Shift+0, and to stop it type Ctrl+Shift+1. These hot keys will save us time in making macros.
Now we are ready for a test run in making macros. This macro will open the Control Panel for us.
First, hit Ctrl+Shift+0 to begin recording, then press the Start Button and then Control Panel. Now type Ctrl+Shift+1, and we are done! Not too hard, eh?
You'll notice that Auto Clicker Typer translated our actions into instructions the computer can understand. To watch our macro at work, click the Play button and the Start button will click, followed by the Control Panel.
Ready to give it a spin on your own? Just begin with the record hot key Ctrl+Shift+0 and begin your task on the computer and when you've completed, select Ctrl+Shift+1. Then press Play to test it out. Works almost like magic!
To save your macros so you can use them whenever you want, select Save List, name and choose the destination of your macro, and press Save.
To open a saved macro, just select Open List, find your macro and click Open.
To save yourself some hassle, you can assign hot keys to your macros. From the Auto Clicker Typer interface, click Auto Script Keys, and this window will open up.
Simply choose a key combination, and browse for your macro files to pair them up. Easy!
The last tip I have for you is if you want your macros to repeat on their own. For example, when I had to print 30 documents and adjust my printer settings 30 times, automatic repetition would have helped a ton. In the top right-hand corner of Auto Clicker Typer there is a loop function. Just check the box and enter how many times you'd like the macro to repeat.
And that's it; with a little practice, I know all of you can become macro masters! If you encounter any difficulties, leave a comment below and we'll be sure to help you out.
~ Jay Neil Patel

PHOTO: Mary-Kate Olsen sports giant ring as engagement rumors swirl
(Yahoo!) - Mary-Kate Olsen is wearing an interesting piece of jewelry.
Days after reports surfaced that Mary-Kate was engaged to Olivier Sarkozy, the fashion mogul stepped out wearing a giant bauble on her left ring finger.
While it's unconfirmed that Olsen, 27, and Sarkozy, 44, are preparing to the knot, Mary-Kate's new bling — a giant gold ring with a diamond in the center — certainly won't squash those rumors. Neither the former "Full House" star nor her banker beau have yet to comment.
Olivier and Mary-Kate have been dating for nearly two years.
If they are engaged, this would be Olsen's first marriage and Sarkozy's second. He previously wed Charlotte Bernard, with whom he has two kids, Julien, 12, and Margo, 10.
What do you think of Mary-Kate's new accessory?

Did you double-check the passphrase? Or try putting a few variants, just as a hunch... Hope I gave someone some ideas ?
I am happy for the new BT4 final. But failed in hacking myself ( WP2 CCMP )
Is there some bug in airodump-ng?
airodump-ng -c 11 -w dump.cap mon0
aireplay-ng -0 ... .. . .. .
aircrack-ng ( Got WPA (1 handshake) )
So far so good.
aircrack-ng -w word.txt dump.cap-01.cap ( Passphrase not in dictionary ) <----- Problem
I am sure the right password is in the word.txt.
Also tried it with cowpatty same problem.

Hey, I've just cracked my WPA network.
airmon-ng start wlan0

Found it.
good work, and thanks, you saved me from making the same mistake
Thanks batsy. I tried it again and this time it worked.
I still belie that airodump-ng did some error in cathing the handshake. I used the same word list on the two captured handshakes
and only one of them worked.

Tusculum Takes SeriesMarch 16, 2013
Greeneville, Tenn. - The Tusculum College baseball team swept a South Atlantic Conference doubleheader from the Brevard College Tornados Saturday afternoon at Pioneer Park, taking a 15-3 win in the opener before edging BC 5-3 in the night-cap to take the series.
Game 1: Tusculum 15, Brevard 3
The Pioneers collected 16 hits in the opener, led by Trey Drewery's 3-for-4 performance while Zeke McGranahan tossed eight innings for the win.
Champ Stuart led off the game with a single, moved to second on a wild pitch and scored on Proffitt's RBI single up the middle.
The Pioneers tied the game in the third inning at 1-1. Foster reached on an error and moved to second on a Nick Rodriguez bunt single. Foster scored the tying run on a dropped fly ball to right field.
Tusculum took the lead with a pair of runs in the fourth and added four more in the fifth inning to take a 7-1 lead.
The Tornados got two runs back in the top of the seventh thanks to Stuart's two-out single, scoring Bennett Hixson and John Slade to make it a 7-3 ballgame.
But TC followed with three runs in the bottom of the inning and five more in the eighth to put the game out of reach for BC.
TC starter Zeke McGranahan tossed eight innings, allowing three runs (one earned) on six hits and a walk.
BC starter Brennan Daniels (1-3) suffered the loss for the Tornados, giving up five earned runs over 4.2 innings.
Game 2: Tusculum 5, Brevard 3
Jalen Shuffler went 2-for-3 while reliever John-Austin Shepard pitched 2 2/3 shutout innings to record his fifth save in TC's 5-3 win in the night-cap.
TC starter Adam Sigmon (4-2) picked up his fourth victory of the year, giving up three runs over 4.1 innings.
Stuart got things going again for BC in game two, leading off the game with a double down the left field line and scoring on Renegar's bunt single.
The Piooneers took the lead with a three-run second inning.
Trailing by two, Brevard cut the deficit in half with a run in the third. Renegar drew a leadoff walk and moved to third on a Cody Queen double. After a groundout, Slade sent a fly ball down the right field line that was hauled in by Drewery, but Slade tagged up and just slid in under the tag by catcher Pat Holleran to make it a 3-2 contest.
Tusculum added two insurance runs in the bottom of the fourth as the Pioneers after a BC error and a base hit increased the lead to 5-2.
The Tornados got a run back in the fifth inning as Renegar led off with a double and scored on Kody Spencer's one-out single.
BC starter Nick Blackwood suffered the loss as he went 1 2/3 innings with four hits, three runs a walk and a strikeout to fall to 1-3. Stuart and Renegar would finish with two hits each in the loss for the Tornados.
The Tornados are back in action when they visit Winston-Salem State for a nonconference game with the Rams on March 19th at BB&T Field. First pitch is set for 5 p.m.

DatPixieGirl's Log for Shiro
Posted 24 October 2004 - 06:29 PM ( #1 )
Saturday, October 23
*1st gen tama, boy, Shiro, born 4:56pm*
We have already scored 30 at hurdles; got to 21 with dance game.
Was a bit confused at first as to when to discipline, since each version since the 1st has been different, and the gameboy game was really ambiguous about this feature. But this version is more direct about it, so I will have no more probelms with it in the future.
However, I still am a bit confused as to what it means when Shiro is short one happy heart but refuses to play games with me; I've tried both praise and scold, but in the end I just gave him a snack and that did the trick. could it be that he does that to get a snack? is this bad?
*6pm evolved into cutie Marutchi!*
I love how he dances~(he evolved a few min "late" because we were playing the hurdle game when the time came) I wonder why it sounds like Marutchi is the worse of the two "rebellious types" that you can get; I think he's the cuter one *pout*
Went to bed at 8pm. (I went to bed at like 1am)
Started24 Oct 2004
Last Post02 Nov 2004
Posted 24 October 2004 - 06:40 PM ( #2 )
I woke up at around 7:56am and decided to stay awake and see if Shiro would wake up at 8, since all my other baby tamagotchis in the older versions usually slept til 9. I would have preferred this, since I still was tired, but of course the little darling decided to wake up at 8. So I paused him and went back to sleep.
Reawoke at around 9:30 and unpaused Shiro. He's a lot less needy than he was at first, which is a good thing and a bad thing; I do like having free time, but I also like playing with my baby.
7:30pm - I had kept checking all day to see when the age would change from "0" to "1" and it finally did! Now I'm left wondering when Shiro will evolve...
Was able to get to 30 in the dancing game today. Ok so maybe I cheated a little bit by typing out the button order in notepad, but I say it's just cause I'm a caring mom who wants her baby to be happy ^^. Hurdle game is a bit harder now that Shiro is bigger. I guess it's just something you get used to.
Also, not having any luck with potty training since the little guy is a stealthy sh***er. Or maybe you can't potty train til they're older, like in the gameboy version. Hmm. Guess I'll find out when he evolves *grin*
Posted 24 October 2004 - 06:46 PM ( #3 )
*7:43pm Shiro evolved into Itchigotchi!!*
Once again, my little boy surprised me. Right after I finished posting what I thought would be my only entry for today, he goes and evolves! I thought he would change sometime tomorrow. Awww, he's so CUTE!! ><
Posted 25 October 2004 - 07:36 PM ( #4 )
Not much I can really say today; Shiro was paused for much of the day due to my classes and a terrible headache I had when I got home. I did manage to get him potty-trained though, so the day was not a total loss, tama-advancement-wise.
I also got to see a few of ichigotchi's little daily activities, such as singing & dancing, practicing hurdles (and tripping ><) and taking a bath! That was just adorable, and I also was not expecting it, so twas a bit of surprise as well. ^^
Posted 26 October 2004 - 09:21 PM ( #5 )
Another uneventful day. Mostly due to my classes again. But I did figure out that Shiro was refusing to play with me at times because playing would have put him below the minimum weight for that tama type. He has also gained two bars of training, but he's just too good. Not much to scold him for.
Tis a week til my birthday, and I'm wondering what special thing(s) the tamagotchis are supposed to do...Guess I get to wait and find out!
Posted 27 October 2004 - 07:46 PM ( #6 )
At least today I was able to have Shiro unpaused for more than a couple of hours, thanks to skipping my poetry class (the guy who teaches that one is a grad student...and a bit of a moron). He's now all the way to 8 training bars; I'm so proud ^^
I hope that he evolves by this weekend, AND I hope he evolves into Mametchi. I just think he's the cutest thing ever. Most of the others are adorable, too. I'll be happy as long as I don't end up with a Tarakotchi ><. I've had a grudge against that thing since the early tamagotchi versions, and I don't want to see it again -.- ever.
Posted 28 October 2004 - 02:19 PM ( #7 )
Raptures!! I was totally expecting Shiro to evolve this weekend, but as I was playing the flower shooter game on tamatalk, I heard "that noise"...And honestly, I got scared ><. True, I had gotten him up to full training bars today before I got home, but I was so afraid I'd get a tama I am not too fond of. But!! As I watched and he started flickering, I saw the adorable Mametchi that I wanted. I am just so thrilled! I just hope I can get another tama and raise it to adult before he gets too old to mate. Me want more babies!
Posted 01 November 2004 - 10:34 AM ( #8 )
Been fairly uneventful lately, so I did not bother to update. However, today Shiro turned 7 and the matchmaker showed up with a Hanatchi. Since I don't particularly like that tama, and I wanted Shiro to still be around for my birthday tomorrow, I said no to the match.
~Later Today...~
Matchmaker came back with a Tarakotchi...my absolute least favorite character. A given that I'd say no to that one in a hurry. I wonder if she will be coming back again with more match choices or if that was it? Either way, I love my Shiro and I am willing to let him grow to a ripe old age without breeding me another tama baby. Keep on going boy!
Posted 02 November 2004 - 11:15 PM ( #9 )
My birthday! Woke up to Shiro saying happy birthday across his screen. Today he had three more marriage offers, a memetchi (I almost said yes to that one), another tarakotchi, and a robotchi (which was a bit of a surprise). I accidentally went upstairs and left him on the counter right before he went to sleep, so he had the light on for the first 15 minutes of snoozing. I hope that did not make him too upset with me ><.
Now I'm wondering if I'll get any more marriage offers tomorrow. If Ms. Busybody offers a mametchi, mimitchi, or kuchipatchi, I will definitely say yes. And perhaps I shall say yes to a Memetchi...we shall see.

This is a non-issue. Trials are held in the place where the crime was committed and where the victim had the loss. That is standard criminal procedure the world over, and extradition treaties are set up to recognize this fact and allow accused criminals to be returned to the location of the crime so that they may stand trial.
This whole thread is nothing more than a transparent attempt by some people to push a political agenda(s).
As for McKinnon, my opinion on him is that same as anyone else accused of a crime: Let him stand trial. If he's acquitted, then he can go home to the UK. If he's convicted, he can be thrown in a US jail like any other felon who's committed a crime against the US.

Lockheed Martin Trials Next Generation Laser-Based Missile/UAV Defense System
Jason Mick
November 30, 2012 12:40 PM
Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
Using high energy lasers could reduce the cost of shooting down missiles and UAVs, while improving accuracy
The Middle Eastern nation of Israel is currently in the midst of a dire real world test of the
most ambitious missile defense system
in history --
Iron Dome
. While the system cost billions to deploy, in the recent conflict along the Gaza Strip border it has paid off. The system has intercepted an estimated 80 to 90 percent of missiles that are directed at populated targets (as the enemy's missiles are improvised and hand-launched, many land harmlessly in the desert; the system ignores those marks).
In the U.S., Lockheed Martin Corp. (
), one of the world's largest defense contractors, is testing a high-tech missile defense system that could one day replace or supplement missile-based interceptor systems like Iron Dome.
The Lockheed system is dubbed the "
Area Defense Anti-Munitions (ADAM)
system" and packs a powerful 10-kilowatt laser capable of destroying targets up to 2 km (1.24 mi) away.
In a field test of ADAM, the system "successfully engaged" (sounds like a hit, but not necessarily destruction of) an unmanned aerial vehicle at a distance of 1.5 km (0.9 mi). The system also "destroyed" not one, but four "small-caliber rocket targets" at a range of 2 km.
This is the image seen from the ADAM system as it locks onto the UAV.
Lockheed Martin developed the entire modular software/hardware package that powers targeting and interception. The system uses radar to locate threats and the built-in laser to eliminate them.
Paul Shattuck, Lockheed Martin's director of directed energy systems for Strategic and Missile Defense Systems comments, "Lockheed Martin has applied its expertise as a laser weapon system integrator to provide a practical and affordable defense against serious threats to military forces and installations. In developing the ADAM system, we combined our proven laser beam control architecture with commercial hardware to create a capable, integrated laser weapon system."
An artist's rendering of the 10 kw laser-based ADAM interceptor system
An important limitation of the system is its line-of-sight (LOS) requirement. As the destructive force is delivered via a laser light beam, it can only target projectiles it can "see". This shortcoming may lead traditional interceptors to be used closer to populate regions (where exploding missiles directly overhead could endanger citizens), but supplemented by laser-based interceptor system on the border of a hostile neighbor entity/state.
The capability to intercept UAVs is particularly interesting. While the U.S. has long had a relative hegemony on the emerging combat technology, which it has fielded in combat operations
in Iraq, Pakistan, and Afghanistan
, of late several hostile nation-states have been working to develop UAVs of their own. Most notably Iran, known for voicing strong
, anti-Israeli sentiments, showed off his
"Messenger of Death" drone bomber
, which
it is developing
, aided by
reverse engineering
of a
seized U.S. UAV flier

'Jochen Hecht appeared to give the Sabres a 3-1 lead early in the third period, but the ref's call of good goal was overruled by the war room in Toronto. League officials determined Hecht used a distinct kicking motion to direct Jason Pominville's pass under Manny Legace's body and over the goal line. Hecht appeared to use the inside of his right skate to kick the puck into the net soccer-style.'

Re: What is the fastest machine for Mathematica?
Vladimir Radionov wrote:
> Actually it's http://fampm201.tu-graz.ac.at/karl/timings30.html
I have been looking at these tests, and I have been wondering whether
anyone can shed any light on what the critical factors are that affect
Mathematica performance - ie memory, CPU type, cache, disk I/0,
floating point performance or integer.... Or do the tests listed on
this page not really give an accurate guide to performance?
In particular, I ran the benchmark on an UltraSparc with 4 300MHz
processors, 1 GB of RAM and 4 MB of cache per cpu (I think), and got a
benchmark score of less than 1.0, which is the sort of result seen with
a 166MhZ Pentium.
There is a couple of reason why I might get sluggish performace from
this machine, as (for various reasons) the Mathematica files all live
on a remotely mounted disk, connected via a fairly slow network, so
disk I/0 is bad. Likewise, we are running the 3.0 kernel, and we are a
beta site for Solaris 2.7, both of which may (potentially) lead to
sub-optimal performance, I suppose.
We are about to install the 3.0.2 release of Mathematica, and will put
it on a disk which is attached directly to the machine, and Solaris 2.7
is close to being finished, so we are in a position to isolate any
problems that are specific to our local setup.
I do not have exact benchmarks on hand which compare the UltraSparc to
the Pentium, but for all other applications it "feels" a lot faster
than a Pentium 166.... Or has Wolfram simply put a lot more effort
into optimising the Mathematica code for Intel chips than it has for
the Sparcs?
Any comments?
