Programming with shaders - part 001 .
The GLSL data types it's like variables or any types of data from programming language.
Uniform variables
Let's show you this types versus C data types:
This are the uniform variables and can be treated as constants... so cannot be changed.
bool -- int conditional get true -- or false.
int -- int signed integer.
float -- float single floating-point scalar.
vec2 -- float[2] Two component floating-point vector.
vect3 -- float[3] Three component floating-point vector.
vec4 -- float[4] Four component floating-point vector.
bvec2 -- int[2] Two component Boolean vector.
bvec3 -- int[3] Three component Boolean vector.
bvec4 -- int[4] Four component Boolean vector.
ivec2 -- int[2] Two component signed integer vector.
ivec3 -- int[3] Three component signed integer vector.
ivec4 -- int[4] Four component signed integer vector.
mat2 -- float[4] 2x2 floating-point matrix.
mat3 float[9] 3x3 floating-point matrix.
mat4 -- float[16] 4x4 floating-point matrix.
sampler1D int for accessing a 1D texture.
sampler2D -- int for accessing a 2D texture.
sampler3D -- int for accessing a 3D texture.
samplerCube -- int for accessing a cubemap texture.
sampler1DShadow -- int for accessing a 1D depth texture.
sampler2DShadow -- int for accessing a 2D depth texture..
The uniform variables are used when is passed from OpenGL app to the shader.
Vertex Attributes
This can only be used with vertex shaders.
The atributes are position, normals, texture coordinates all you can use with GL_ARB-vertex_program.
The GL_ARB-vertex_program holds slots and after overwritten the attribute is lost.
The attributes can be:
Let's see one simple example
arrays, structures,
In OpenGL you used something like this:
The link between shader and opengl source code using slot is:
this will pass the my_attribute to shader program (my_program) using a slot (any_slot).
int any_slot= 7;
glBindAttribLocationARB(my_program, any_slot, "my_attribute");
To working ( access ) with the attribute in shader source code , just use this:
Can you see I sent with vec3 type because the glVertex3f has 3 float so is need to be three component floating-point vector.
attribute vec3 my_attribute;
Varying variables.
This are used most to send data from vertex shader to fragment shader.
The most common example is texture coordinates from vertex shader to fragment shader.
But about how it's vertex and fragment shader in the next tutorial.

Sweep it behind
sweep it below
bind the past
and let it go
sweep the tide
of emotion through
and move forward
to what hope
waits for you.
The longest day
to renew
to make
a dream
for future times.
sweep away
the dusty tide
and move the flow
to renew
to bless
do not regress
you deserve
far more than that.
Love where you are at.
love who you are.
Merry Meet and Merry part.
Brightest Blessings with open heart.

With the 3rd presidential debate in history books, the 'debate and public engagement' phase of 2016 campaign is over. What is left is 'turning on the base i.e. voter turnout'. Both Trump and Hillary went into this debate with a simple objective of 'turning on the base'. But for Trump to break the ceiling of 40% voter support, he needed to win remained undecided voters. Nothing in his 3rd debate performance would help him to win any additional votes while by not committing himself in accepting the election result he further pushed away new voters. In that sense, it is perfectly understandable why so many commentators are saying 'it is all over'.
Obviously Hillary cannot be over confident here and she has to say and behave such that "she keeps making efforts to listen Americans and persuade them for her presidency". But she and her campaign can now focus on the 'last mile execution'. Hillary is surrounded by people who will help her to keep focus on this 'execution'. [1]
As usual, reams and reams will be written about this campaign. In general there is nothing to reject a common observation that this campaign has been nasty and in a large measure Donald Trump contributed to that. In the end, his candidacy is simply short of what is needed for the job of USA presidency. Hillary is not necessarily inspiring or without flaws; but she is simply "executing the campaign rightly and successfully". That is predictable. Hopefully those skills will help her in much harder part - governance.
[1] - Former Republican Governor candidate in California, CEO and Chairman Meg Whitman of HPE, was the prominent guest on Hillary's side. Whitman is an execution focused corporate chieftain, exactly the right type of talent Hillary would want to embrace.
Disclosure - I work for HPE.

Garage Sale - AFCO 20400 5 Inch x 9-1/2 Inch Coil Spring, 400 lbs.
Important Messages:
- Get FREE shipping when your order includes this item and exceeds $99! Ground shipping only in the contiguous US.
This is garage sale priced because it has been discontinued.
No Warranty, No Returns on Garage Sale Items
There's a lot riding on your springs-literally. Springs are your car's connection to the ground, and their performance is directly related to all other suspension components. Inconsistent, weak springs can cause a multitude of handling problems , and, in some cases, dangerous situations. When it comes to choosing coil springs, there are many alternatives, but if you want the best you can get, the choice is clear: CHOOSE AFCOILS.
All AFCOILS carry a lifetime warranty to remain within 2% of the original nominal free height.
Fits 1964-1972 Chevelle, 1967-1969 Camaro & 1968-1974 Nova chassis when used in conjunction with a weight jack assembly for a circle track application. This spring has a 9-1/2" free height and is not an o/e replacement.Choose your rate.
- Every AFCO Coil Spring is machine-ground on both ends to tolerances within 1 degree, and then pressed to solid height and "pre-set." This process virtually eliminates any potential for additional set.
- AFCO has made a science of optimizing the variables of material thickness and coil spacing to achieve the best possible design for each rate and height of spring in their product line.
- AFCOILS incorporate the use of super-high tensile strength chrome silicon wire for long life and and a consistent rate. All springs are cold wound on the latest automated coiling equipment and heat treated twice during manufacturing to be able to withstand even the most abusive conditions.
- To further enhance durability, AFCOILS are shot-peened and coated with a durable yellow finish.

Jam Cookies
4 cups Everyday Baking Mix, spooned and leveled
1 cup (2 sticks) cold unsalted butter, cut into pieces
1/2 cup whole milk
3/4 cup seedless jam or jelly
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. In a food processor, pulse baking mix and butter until mixture resembles coarse meal. Add milk; pulse until a dough forms.
Drop dough by heaping tablespoons onto sheets, 4 inches apart. (You will fit about 9 cookies to a sheet; bake in two batches to make a total of 36 cookies.) Bake until cookies begin to turn golden but center is still pale, 12 to 14 minutes, rotating sheets halfway through. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Spread flat side of half the cookies with 2 teaspoons jam each; sandwich with remaining cookies.

Preparing Educators with Practical Science: Ocean Observing in the Classroom
Over the past two years, the UNH Coastal Observing Center and the Gulf of Maine Ocean Observing System (GoMOOS) have co-sponsored two week-long teacher workshops that offer curriculum content and hands-on experience in using ocean observation data as a successful teaching tool in the classroom. Teachers ranging from grammar school to high school levels worked to create practical lessons that incorporate ocean observing data into their current classroom settings and are using it today. This paper will explain how the UNH/GOMOOS summer Educator Institutes have been run, what teachers have been learning in these workshops, and how they planned and started using ocean observing data in their classrooms.

Background The Polio Eradication Initiative in Nigeria, which started >20 years ago, faced many challenges, including initial denial, resistance from communities, and prolonged regional safety concerns. These challenges led into the structuring of the response including the development of the National Emergency Action Plan, improved partner coordination and government engagement, and the establishment of a Polio Emergency Operations Centre. Although monthly supplementary immunization activities (SIAs) continued, the targeting of settlements at high risk for polio transmission with routine immunization (RI) and other selected primary healthcare (PHC) services using dedicated mobile teams and volunteer community mobilizers (VCMs) became a key strategy for interrupting polio transmission in the high-risk areas. These efforts could have contributed to the wild poliovirus-free 2-year period between 24 July 2014 and 11 August 2016, when 2 cases of the virus were reported from Borno State, Northern Nigeria. Methods A narrative analysis of polio-related program and other official documents was conducted to identify the relevant human resources and their role in the Polio Eradication Initiative and in RI. The data used in the article was obtained from United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) and World Health Organization project reports and a draft evaluation report of the dedicated mobile teams approach in Northern Nigeria. Results The data from 6 of the states that commenced the provision of polio, RI, and other selected PHC services using the dedicated mobile teams approach in 2014 showed an overall increase in the percentage of children aged 12-23 months in the settlements at high risk for polio transmission with a RI card seen, from 23% to 56%, and an overall increase in fully immunized children aged 12-23 months, from 19% to 55%. The number of newborns given the first dose of oral poliovirus vaccine (OPV) according to the RI schedule and the number of children given zero-dose OPV with the assistance of the VCMs similarly increased between 2013 and 2015. In 2015, VCMs helped track 167 092 newborns and also linked 156 537 infants aged <1 year to RI services in the 6 states. Conclusions The analysis illustrates that polio personnel in Northern Nigeria are used in increasing access to zero-dose OPV, RI, and selected PHC services. The increase in the services generated represented the increasing role of the dedicated mobile teams and polio VCMs in strengthening RI. © The Author 2017.

Background: One of the challenges facing the Global Polio Eradication Initiative is efficiently directing limited resources, such as specially trained personnel, community outreach activities, and satellite vaccinator tracking, to the most at-risk areas to maximize the impact of interventions. A validated predictive model of wild poliovirus circulation would greatly inform prioritization efforts by accurately forecasting areas at greatest risk, thus enabling the greatest effect of program interventions.Methods: Using Nigerian acute flaccid paralysis surveillance data from 2004-2013, we developed a spatial hierarchical Poisson hurdle model fitted within a Bayesian framework to study historical polio caseload patterns and forecast future circulation of type 1 and 3 wild poliovirus within districts in Nigeria. A Bayesian temporal smoothing model was applied to address data sparsity underlying estimates of covariates at the district level.Results: We find that calculated vaccine-derived population immunity is significantly negatively associated with the probability and number of wild poliovirus case(s) within a district. Recent case information is significantly positively associated with probability of a case, but not the number of cases. We used lagged indicators and coefficients from the fitted models to forecast reported cases in the subsequent six-month periods. Over the past three years, the average predictive ability is 86 ± 2% and 85 ± 4% for wild poliovirus type 1 and 3, respectively. Interestingly, the predictive accuracy of historical transmission patterns alone is equivalent (86 ± 2% and 84 ± 4% for type 1 and 3, respectively). We calculate uncertainty in risk ranking to inform assessments of changes in rank between time periods.Conclusions: The model developed in this study successfully predicts districts at risk for future wild poliovirus cases in Nigeria. The highest predicted district risk was 12.8 WPV1 cases in 2006, while the lowest district risk was 0.001 WPV1 cases in 2013. Model results have been used to direct the allocation of many different interventions, including political and religious advocacy visits. This modeling approach could be applied to other vaccine preventable diseases for use in other control and elimination programs. © 2014 Upfill-Brown et al.; licensee BioMed Central Ltd.

Urges Rotarians to Remain Vigilant and Preemptive in the Fight against Poliovirus ABUJA, NIGERIA--(Marketwired - Oct 25, 2016) - Sir Emeka Offor, founder of the Sir Emeka Offor Foundation and Rotary International Polio Ambassador, issued the following letter to Rotarians to extend upon World Polio Day: One year ago, Nigeria had a zero record of any poliovirus transmission. It was an exciting time in our long and arduous history of anti-polio war. Before this, polio transmission was rampant. With Nigeria being a reservoir for the virus, the apparent uncontrolled transmission rate threatened to take a worsening turn, reaching even across national borders. Upon learning of the devastating effect of the disease on the Nigerian child, I was touched beyond imagination. I had to get involved. Thus far, my total contributions to Rotary International, which is at the forefront of the fight against polio, have exceeded $3.6 million. This includes donations to the Center for Peace & Conflict Resolution, for the safe motherhood, maternal and child health, Polio Speaking Book and disability utility tricycles. Many had labored for years before I joined Rotary, and our shared efforts paid significant dividends during 2014 and 2015. However, despite our cautious optimism, we received news this past August of three new cases of Acute Flaccid Paralysis of wild poliovirus Type 1 from Borno State. This major setback resets the timetable for the path toward polio-free certification. The new cases in Borno are a reminder that until poliovirus is completely eradicated, our children remain at risk. We must therefore not relent. There is no better time to refocus, re-strategize and fight than now. I applaud the efforts put forward by the Rotary Foundation, UNICEF, the World Health Organization and many other local and international donor organs that ceaselessly support anti-polio initiatives. The Nigerian Federal Government rolled out up to N9.8 billion to support National Primary Health Care Development Agency in its response plan to ensure that up to 56 million children are vaccinated. Volunteer Community Mobilizers have been deployed in the scale-up exercise. As we mark World Polio Day this week, I call on Rotarians in Nigeria and all over the world to stand together and invest time and resources judiciously towards the success of the End Game strategy. I urge all Rotarians to disavow complacency in our quest for a better world. Our shared commitment is of immense necessity at this time. As the Rotary International Polio Ambassador, I am convinced that we have a chance to rally each other and the nation to see that we finish what we started. We must defeat polio. The time is now. The Sir Emeka Offor Foundation is a philanthropic organization based in Abuja, FCT and Oraifite, Anambra State, Nigeria. The Foundation seeks to alleviate the suffering of the less privileged through philanthropy, and focuses primarily on giving support and hope to those in need irrespective of tribe, creed, religion and nation. The Foundation has affected the lives of many Nigerians through its domestic programs and projects, which include youth empowerment, Widows Cooperative, education, and health services and infrastructural development.

MEDICC Review | Year: 2011
The benefits of an interconnected world for health care remain untapped. As a result of the politics of inequality between rich and poor countries, one or a few health systems are set up as models. Every country, irrespective of political or economic status, should be open to learning from others to build relevant and cost-effective systems. To combat the current global challenge of chronic noncommunicable diseases, poor countries have the advantage of flexible health systems that are veritable laboratories of health systems research. Not only can research conducted in these health systems help harness the potential of mobile communication technologies and informal health providers, it can also help rich country health systems adapt to meet the chronic disease challenge.

Infectious Diseases of Poverty | Year: 2013
Background: Studies on costs incurred by patients for tuberculosis (TB) care are limited as these costs are reported as averages, and the economic impact of the costs is estimated based on average patient/household incomes. Average expenditures do not represent the poor because they spend less on treatment compared to other economic groups. Thus, the extent to which TB expenditures risk sending households into, or further into, poverty and its determinants, is unknown. We assessed the incidence and determinants of household catastrophic payments for TB care in rural Nigeria. Methods: Data used were obtained from a survey of 452 pulmonary TB patients sampled from three rural health facilities in Ebonyi State, Nigeria. Using household direct costs and income data, we analyzed the incidence of household catastrophic payments using, as thresholds, the traditional >10% of household income and the ≥40% of non-food income, as recommended by the World Health Organization. We used logistic regression analysis to identify the determinants of catastrophic payments. Results: Average direct household costs for TB were US$157 or 14% of average annual incomes. The incidence catastrophic payment was 44%; with 69% and 15% of the poorest and richest household income-quartiles experiencing catastrophic activity, respectively. Independent determinants of catastrophic payments were: age >40 years (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] 3.9; 95% confidence interval [CI], 2.0, 7.8), male gender (aOR 3.0; CI 1.8, 5.2), urban residence (aOR 3.8; CI 1.9, 7.7), formal education (aOR 4.7; CI 2.5, 8.9), care at a private facility (aOR 2.9; 1.5, 5.9), poor household (aOR 6.7; CI 3.7, 12), household where the patient is the primary earner (aOR 3.8; CI 2.2, 6.6]), and HIV co-infection (aOR 3.1; CI 1.7, 5.6). Conclusions: Current cost-lowering strategies are not enough to prevent households from incurring catastrophic out-of-pocket payments for TB care. Financial and social protection interventions are needed for identified at-risk groups, and community-level interventions may reduce inefficiencies in the care-seeking pathway. These observations should inform post-2015 TB strategies and influence policy-making on health services that are meant to be free of charge. © 2013 Ukwaja et al.; licensee BioMed Central Ltd.

Objective To expand the evidence base on the prevalence of non-communicable disease (NCD) risk factors in rural Africa, in particular among older adults aged 50 and older. Methods Cross-sectional study in three rural sites in Malawi, Rwanda and Tanzania. One person was interviewed from each of 665 households selected through a stratified random sampling procedure across the three sites. The questionnaire included socio-demographic characteristics, smoking and alcohol intake as well as a food frequency questionnaire. Results Smoking rates among older men and women were higher than among adults under 50. While only 2.3% of women under 50 were current smokers, 21.0% of older women smoked (P<0.0001). Among men, 19.0% of men under 50 smoked versus 36.6% of older men (P=0.001). Alcohol consumption among older women aged 50 and older (45.0%) was more common (P=0.005) than among women under 50 (27.6%). Examining a set of five risk factors, more men aged 50 and older (49.5%) had two or more risk factors than men under 50 (25.5%) (P<0.0001). Similarly, 52.0% of women aged 50 and older had two or more risk factors, versus 24.1% of women under 50 (P<0.0001). Conclusion Contrary to what is seen in developed country settings, this study reveals high rates of smoking and alcohol consumption among men and women aged 50years and older in rural Africa that puts them at risk of NCDs. The health of older adults in rural Africa has been neglected, and these findings highlight the importance of reaching out to older adults with messaging regarding diet, smoking, alcohol use and general health. © 2011 Blackwell Publishing Ltd.

Background: The completion of poliomyelitis eradication is a global emergency for public health. In 2012, more than 50% of the world's cases occurred in Nigeria following an unanticipated surge in incidence. We aimed to quantitatively analyse the key factors sustaining transmission of poliomyelitis in Nigeria and to calculate clinical efficacy estimates for the oral poliovirus vaccines (OPV) currently in use. Methods: We used acute flaccid paralysis (AFP) surveillance data from Nigeria collected between January, 2001, and December, 2012, to estimate the clinical efficacies of all four OPVs in use and combined this with vaccination coverage to estimate the effect of the introduction of monovalent and bivalent OPV on vaccine-induced serotype-specific population immunity. Vaccine efficacy was determined using a case-control study with CIs based on bootstrap resampling. Vaccine efficacy was also estimated separately for north and south Nigeria, by age of the children, and by year. Detailed 60-day follow-up data were collected from children with confirmed poliomyelitis and were used to assess correlates of vaccine status. We also quantitatively assessed the epidemiology of poliomyelitis and programme performance and considered the reasons for the high vaccine refusal rate along with risk factors for a given local government area reporting a case. Findings: Against serotype 1, both monovalent OPV (median 32·1%, 95% CI 26·1-38·1) and bivalent OPV (29·5%, 20·1-38·4) had higher clinical efficacy than trivalent OPV (19·4%, 16·1-22·8). Corresponding data for serotype 3 were 43·2% (23·1-61·1) and 23·8% (5·3-44·9) compared with 18·0% (14·1-22·1). Combined with increases in coverage, this factor has boosted population immunity in children younger than age 36 months to a record high (64-69% against serotypes 1 and 3). Vaccine efficacy in northern states was estimated to be significantly lower than in southern states (p≤0·05). The proportion of cases refusing vaccination decreased from 37-72% in 2008 to 21-51% in 2012 for routine and supplementary immunisation, and most caregivers cited ignorance of either vaccine importance or availability as the main reason for missing routine vaccinations (32·1% and 29·6% of cases, respectively). Multiple regression analyses highlighted associations between the age of the mother, availability of OPV at health facilities, and the primary source of health information and the probability of receiving OPV (all p<0·05). Interpretation: Although high refusal rates, low OPV campaign awareness, and heterogeneous population immunity continued to support poliomyelitis transmission in Nigeria at the end of 2012, overall population immunity had improved due to new OPV formulations and improvements in programme delivery.

Knowledge that older people are vulnerable to develop tuberculosis is rarely considered in developing country settings. According to 2010 Global Burden of Disease estimates, the majority of tuberculosis-related deaths occurred among people older than 50; most in those aged 65 and above. Older people also contribute a large proportion of Disability-Adjusted Life Years (DALYs); 51% of tuberculosis DALYs occurred in patients aged 50 years and older in East Asia. Tuberculosis age distributions in Africa have been severely skewed by the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) epidemic, but emerging data suggest increasing disease burdens among older people. Older adults are more likely to develop extra-pulmonary and atypical forms of disease that are often harder to diagnose than conventional sputum smear-positive pulmonary tuberculosis. Their care is complicated by more frequent drug-related adverse events and increased co-morbidity, which may prove difficult to manage in regions where health resources are already constrained. Health systems will have to confront the challenge of an ageing global population and the integrated services required to address their health needs. © 2014 The Authors.

Purpose: To investigate the potential of information and communication technology (ICT) adoption among maternal and child health workers in rural Nigeria. Methods: A prospective, quantitative survey design was used to collect data from quasi-randomly selected clusters of 25 rural health facilities in 5 of the 36 states in Nigeria over a 2-month period from June to July 2010. A total of 200 maternal and child health workers were included in the survey, and the data were analyzed using a modified theory of acceptance model (TAM). Results: There was no significant difference between ICT knowledge and attitude scores across states. There were significant differences in perceived ease of use (P<.001) and perceived usefulness scores (P=.001) across states. Midwives reported higher scores on all the constructs but a lower score on endemic barriers (which is a more positive outcome). However, the differences were only statistically significant for perceived usefulness (P=.05) and endemic barriers (P<.001). Regression analysis revealed that there was no interaction between worker group and age. Older workers were likely to have lower scores on knowledge and attitude but higher scores on perceived ease of use and perceived usefulness. Lastly, we found that worker preference for ICT application in health varied across worker groups and conflicted with government/employer priorities. Conclusions: Although the objective of this study was exploratory, the results provide insight into the intricacies involved in the deployment of ICT in low-resource settings. Use of an expanded TAM should be considered as a mandatory part of any pre-implementation study of ICT among health workers in sub-Saharan Africa. © 2012 Elsevier Ireland Ltd.

Background: The largest recorded outbreak of a circulating vaccine-derived poliovirus (cVDPV), detected in Nigeria, provides a unique opportunity to analyze the pathogenicity of the virus, the clinical severity of the disease, and the effectiveness of control measures for cVDPVs as compared with wild-type poliovirus (WPV). Methods: We identified cases of acute flaccid paralysis associated with fecal excretion of type 2 cVDPV, type 1 WPV, or type 3 WPV reported in Nigeria through routine surveillance from January 1, 2005, through June 30, 2009. The clinical characteristics of these cases, the clinical attack rates for each virus, and the effectiveness of oral polio vaccines in preventing paralysis from each virus were compared. Results: No significant differences were found in the clinical severity of paralysis among the 278 cases of type 2 cVDPV, the 2323 cases of type 1 WPV, and the 1059 cases of type 3 WPV. The estimated average annual clinical attack rates of type 1 WPV, type 2 cVDPV, and type 3 WPV per 100,000 susceptible children under 5 years of age were 6.8 (95% confidence interval [CI], 5.9 to 7.7), 2.7 (95% CI, 1.9 to 3.6), and 4.0 (95% CI, 3.4 to 4.7), respectively. The estimated effectiveness of trivalent oral polio vaccine against paralysis from type 2 cVDPV was 38% (95% CI, 15 to 54%) per dose, which was substantially higher than that against paralysis from type 1 WPV (13%; 95% CI, 8 to 18%), or type 3 WPV (20%; 95% CI, 12 to 26%). The more frequent use of serotype 1 and serotype 3 monovalent oral polio vaccines has resulted in improvements in vaccine-induced population immunity against these serotypes and in declines in immunity to type 2 cVDPV. Conclusions: The attack rate and severity of disease associated with the recent cVDPV identified in Nigeria are similar to those associated with WPV. International planning for the management of the risk of WPV, both before and after eradication, must include scenarios in which equally virulent and pathogenic cVDPVs could emerge.

Music Lyrics
Bass and Guitar Tabs
and More...
Alicia Keys
Go Ahead
Oh [4x]
[Verse 1]
Broken promises
My heart you stole
Lies you told
Got the best of me
Digging in my heart of gold
Used to look at you
And see the possibilities
I see you for who you are
Boy you've disappointed me
I thought you gave me love
Was never near enough
Soon enough time reveals
The weight of what is real
Know all I need to know
But see you got to go
What have you've given me?
But lies lies
Go head go on and get up out of here
Go head baby
You knew you was wrong
You knew all along
Must be crazy
If you think I'm gone fall for this anymore
Everybody say no no no no no
Everybody say no no no no no
[Verse 2]
Used to believe in every word you said
Clouds my head
Leaving me here to drown
Hopes and dreams left for dead
You point your finger
Trying to justify your mistakes
A change is goin to be made
So you best be on your way
No need to apologize
Don't try to make it right
I know
I should known better
When you took hold
I was sold
Using fear to control
Now it unfolds
Let me tell you right now
What I'm gonna do
made up my mind
It's time and I'm through with you
Nothing you can say or can do
Can make me change me mind

You tend to be quiet, reserved, secretive and, at times, quite difficult to understand. Others notice your deep emotions and feelings and wonder how to draw you out. Stubborn and tough, you fight for any position you believe in. You are very resourceful and formidable when you become angered or upset about something. You enjoy living life at the cutting edge – for you life must be experienced intensely and totally. Quite courageous, you are willing to take calculated risks. Easily hurt by others, you often strike back with bitter sarcasm. Sensitive and curious, you are concerned with the deeper mysteries of human psychology. Once you have become interested in any subject, you pursue it with total fanaticism.
Sun is in 24 Degrees Virgo.
It represents how you project yourself in public, the way you hold yourself and present yourself in front of others.
Extremely careful and cautious by nature, you value neatness and order above all else. You rigorously practice very high standards of living and conduct and you demand the same of everyone with whom you come into contact. At times, you are so supercritical that you are merely nit-picky. You are very good at practical skills and quite handy with tools of all kinds. You are also greatly concerned with hygiene, cleanliness and personal health problems. Very likely your health is much better than you think it is – don't worry so much! Extremely methodical and analytical, you are a perfectionist – this makes you the perfect person to carry out highly detailed, precise operations. But, at times, you pay so much attention to details that you lose sight of the larger issues.
Moon is in 17 Degrees Scorpio.
Your moon sign represents your inner self, the person you are when you are alone, the part of you that you hide from others.
Your feelings are very intense, never superficial. You tend to be either very angry or very sad or completely and totally happy. Your moods are deep, extreme and not always completely understood by yourself or by those with whom you have to deal. Emotionally, you tend to prefer to live at the cutting edge of life, pushing your reactions to the ultimate extremes, even if the results are dangerous or upsetting. You are easily jealous and very suspicious – you require a great deal of emotional reassurance. A good detective, you are very curious about deep and mysterious things, especially human nature and motivations. Be careful not to be ruthless, tactless or too overly frank or you will meet with much resistance from others.
Mercury is in 25 Degrees Virgo.
Represents communication and public endeavors.
Very thorough and efficient, you pay attention to the minor but important details of any project. You are a careful thinker who can learn complicated, intricate techniques. You are attracted to practical, useful skills and are probably good at working with your hands. You are very critical of yourself and others, sometimes too much so, and you get the reputation of being a nag or of being nit-picky. Your first reaction to any situation is to try to organize, classify and analyze everything!
Venus is in 11 Degrees Leo.
Represents love and friendships.
You have a striking, regal appearance and demeanor that attracts others to you. Your friendship is highly sought and you tend to take friendships quite seriously – you remain loyal and true to those to whom you are attached. For you, love is mixed with pride and respect. Relationships are over when you lose respect for your partner. Be careful of a tendency to relate only to those who make you look good – the powerful, important and influential. This can lead to arrogance and selfishness, and neither of these qualities becomes you.
Mars is in 04 Degrees Leo.
Represents your passion and temper, and sex.
You are a very proud person. Strong, bold, courageous and self-possessed, you love to be the one to initiate significant actions. When people expect a lot of you, you respond positively and will work hard in order to maintain their respect. But when your dignity or pride is threatened, you tend to become sarcastic, arrogant and domineering. Try not to take any challenge or resistance that you meet as a personal affront. You are very stubborn about your right to live your life according to your own principles.
Jupiter is in 08 Degrees Capricorn.
Represents luck and fortune.
You tend to feel that the only results that are worthwhile are the results that are concrete and demonstrable. You distrust abstract solutions and appreciate measurable achievements. An excellent organizer and planner, you are optimistic as well as practical and realistic about what can and what cannot happen. Very responsible, you consider it a personal weakness to be wrong about anything. This makes you appropriately cautious. You are very efficient but you tend to be cool and detached.
Saturn is in 04 Degrees Aries.
Represents work ethic.
You are aloof, independent and standoffish. This is mainly due to your fear that others might inhibit or restrict you and, quite frankly, you feel that you can govern your life by your own standards. Be careful not to associate with those who are overly critical of you or you will withdraw so deeply into your shell that you will become very lonely. You have the ability to stand on your own two feet and to make up your own mind – albeit very carefully and cautiously. But you are known for your circumspection and therefore are respected and admired.
Uranus is in 00 Degrees Aquarius.
Represents transformations and life challenges.
You, and most of your peer group as well, are reformers at heart. You want to make positive changes that will benefit society as a whole. You are willing to devote your time and energy to see that they come about, especially if the proper group support and combined purpose of will can be found. Be careful that your devotion to group goals does not produce too much friction or neglect in your own interpersonal one-on-one relationships.
Neptune is in 25 Degrees Capricorn.
Represents the subconscious and thought process.
You, and your entire generation, will idealize work, practicality and the ability to attain reasonable goals. But, because you will also stress the need to be selfless and giving, you may find it difficult to attain your goals unless you have lowered your expectations on all fronts.
Pluto is in 00 Degrees Sagittarius.
Represents transformation and callings in life.
For your entire generation, society's cherished beliefs and totems will be radically changed. Many traditional concepts will be totally altered, if not completely destroyed. The rights of individuals to pursue their own course in life will be reasserted.
N. Node is in 08 Degrees Libra.
The North Node represents the kinds of experiences that we must work to develop in order to work with our karma, and to grow spiritually. The South Node represents those experiences and qualities that come naturally to us, that are over-developed, and that we tend to fall back on.
You find it very difficult to be comfortable being alone – you would much prefer to be in an environment where many people are working together toward common goals. Your charming and sincere approach to others assures your popularity – you have the gift of being able to ease tensions just by your mere presence. You're the perfect "team player" willing to sacrifice your own importance so that the group goal can be accomplished. Be careful, however, not to become overly dependent on your interactions with others – you have personal private needs that should not be neglected.

I'd like to say that IPP is my favorite Intel library. I cant tell you how many times I've looked to IPP for answers.
That being said, IPP is kind of mysterious to me. Its such a large library of algorithms that it could take a lifetime to master. I've made an effort to learn the signal and image libraries, but I've only scratched the surface. Many of the algorithms assume advanced knowledge about the subject. I dont mind that. Its a library for advanced users, it pulls no punches and expects alot from its users. Thats fine.
What scares me is that I'm not sure how IPP development process works.
How do you deceide which functions to add?
Can users make contributions?
Is Intel commited to always supporting IPP?
Essentially, I would like to see more contributions or activity from its users. The users should have some say as to how the library progresses. Not sure how that would work exactly, but a better blog about IPP would be a start. This discussion board is a fine but more is needed.
Alot more examples are needed. This is where you could look to the user community to help out. Documentation is adequate, but alot more is needed. The users could help out here as well.
