As summer basically here now, it means I'm in the build up of six to eight weeks of suffering with Hay Fever. I has only been in the last couple of years that I have really started to suffer with Hay Fever badly, I've always had the odd sneeze but now I get the full slog, itchy and runny eyes, constant runny nose and repetitive sneezing. So I thought I'd share with you a couple of medical and natural remedies that make the summer a little more bearable.
Firstly, I have found that Cetirizine works better for me than Loratadine. But each of us if different and remember to seek the advice of a GP or medical health advisor before you take any medication. A lot of medication also takes about two weeks to start working so be patient. This also means that you need to prepare yourself BEFORE the high pollen really sets in. In addition, it's not good taking your medication when you remember, you need to get into a routine.
I get the biggest desire to scratch my eyes which drives me insane as well as messes up any form of eye make up I have put on. So you can find me hiding behind these rather large pair of Topshop sunnies.
Now surely if the pollen cannot get into my eyes, I won't suffer right? It looks ridiculous when the sun isn't shining, but it is a great defence mechanism. Another thing for my eyes are eye drops I am currently using Optrex Soothing Eye Drop which are specifically for itchy eyes, and they work a miracle.
I also find that getting changed and showering when I get home for the day help especially as my job is outdoors. You'd be surprised at how this actually helps. It means that you literally get rid of all the pollen that sticks to you throughout the day, it also prevents you moving pollen from your hair and skin onto your bedding and pillows.
I know in the summer we want to save the plant and not use our tumble dryers but drying your clothes outside means that they are just getting pollen stuck to them like crazy! To be fair I still dry the majority of my clothes outside but I no longer dry my bedding on the line.
Now I have read a lot of things online about the wonders local honey does for hay fever so recently I have but substituting my shop brought runny honey for a locally produced one, now the price is a lot more but it does seem to be helping me out. I have been adding the honey to greek yogurt and strawberries for breakfast in the mornings. The honey is supposed to desensitise you to the pollen.
A good nasal spray is a must for a hay fever sufferer. I have been using Prevalin, which has no antihistamines or steroids but creates a barrier in your nose and prevents a reaction. Another great mechanism for your nose is Lush Ultrabalm, I have been using a small bit around each of my nostrils, it works by catching the pollen before it enters you nose.
What do you do to prevent hay fever?
Lots of Love

Here are recipes to beat the lunchbox blues:
1/2cups flour
1teaspoon salt
2teaspoons baking soda
1cup vegetable shortening
2cups sugar
2cups mashed, very ripe bananas (about 6 medium bananas)
4eggs, slightly beaten

You see, the crews of both types of vessel have the same knowledge, information and occasional hunches about where the whale pods can be found each day. I can only assume that some kind of agreement is in place that prevents nightmarish situations arising: whales being caught and dragged on board hunting boats before the horrified eyes of hundreds of tourists who have paid to watch whales swimming and playing in their local waters.
People want to see this... but too bad for us, we didn't! (credit: http://www.gaystarnews.com/article/were-aiming-for-100000-signatures-against-whaling-in-iceland-will-you-join-us/)
Nobody wants to witness this (credit:
https://www.neweurope.eu/article/iceland-halts-fin-whaling/ )
According to the Icewhale website (see link below), 80% of minke whales killed in Iceland are harpooned near the whale-watching area in Faxaflói Bay, just outside Reykjavík... meaning that these whales will never be seen again by people going whale-watching.
The "Meet us, don't eat us" campaign is a joint project between IFAW and IceWhale (the Icelandic Whale Watching Association) http://icewhale.is/about-icewhale/ to spread the message that the positive and sustainable way to enjoy whales in Iceland is to take a whale-watching trip.

November 2017 sees warmth ease
At 0.36°C, the UAH November global average lower-troposphere temperature anomaly was lower than the 2016 average and roughly equal to the 2017 average to-date. Despite being down, the November figure is closer to the Gore-IPCC projection than to the Armstrong-no-change forecast—that has been the case for 31% of the 119 months of the bet to-date.
With only one month of the 10-year bet remaining, we will hold off on more detailed analysis until the new year. To see the latest data, click on the miniature chart to the right of the page.
October 2017 sees three warmer months in a row
With a monthly anomaly of 0.63°C (UAH Lower Troposphere), October was the third month in a row with temperatures closer to the IPCC/Gore dangerous manmade warming scenario than to Professor Armstrong's no-trend forecast from Green, Armstrong, and Soon (2009).
With two months of the 120 month (2-year) Climate Bet to go, however, the absolute error of Mr Gore's projection remains more than 15% larger than Professor Armstrong's.
For the latest chart and data, click on the small chart image on the top right of this page.
September 2017 warmer
The September global average temperature anomaly was, at +0.54°C, the 5th warmest month of the 117 months of the 10-year bet so far.
The Gore/IPCC projection has provided a more accurate prediction of the temperature than Professor Armstrong's no-change forecast for 19 of the last 24 months. Overall, however, the no-change forecast has been more accurate for 70% of the months of the bet so far.
Click on the chart on the top right of the page to see that latest data.
August 2017 warmth keeps the Climate Bet interesting
After two cooler months that were closer to Professor Armstrong's bet on the Green, Armstrong, and Soon (2009) no-trend forecast than to the Gore-IPCC manmade global warming projection, the UAH's August global average temperature "anomaly" was, at +0.41°C, close to the warming projection's 0.46°C for the month.
The August figure means that temperatures have been closer to the Gore-IPCC projection for four of the eight months of 2017 so far, and the absolute error for that period has been nearly 14 percent smaller than the no-trend forecast error.
With only four months of the ten-year bet remaining, we look forward to presenting detailed analysis of the full period of The Bet in the New Year.
To see the updated chart in large, click on the image at the top of the right hand column.
July 2017: Another unremarkable month for the global average temperature
The global mean temperature anomaly for the month of July 2017, as estimated by the UAH climate scientists, was 0.29°C. If it weren't for the cries of alarm about what Mr Gore and others speculate might happen, there would be little interest in this obscure and unremarkable measurement.
Mr Gore and the IPCC did raise the alarm, however, so here on theclimatebet.com site we will continue to monitor the performance of Mr Gore and the IPCC's 3°C per century of warming projection relative to Professor Armstrong's bet on scientific forecasting forecasting and the Green, Armstrong, and Soon (2009) no-change model. With only 5 months of the ten-year notional bet left to run, the cumulative absolute error of the Gore/IPCC projection is 21% larger than the error of the scientific forecast.
On "Alarming Climate: Expert opinions and government funding versus scientific forecasting"
Kesten Green, Scott Armstrong, and Willie Soon responded to MIT President Reif's apparently unshaken belief in dangerous manmade global warming in a letter published by WUWT on July 20. The letter starts as follows:
On June 17, we and our co-authors received a response to our letter to MIT President, Professor Reif, raising concerns about his letter to the MIT community in support of the Paris Climate Accord. Professor Reif's response stated that he was confident in his position on the issue because it is consistent with the beliefs of experts that implementation of the Paris Accord is necessary to save the world from harmful effects of man-made global warming. We are not reassured.
The read the full letter, published on WUWT under the headline "Alarums And Excursions", here.
Mr Gore's alarming warming projection too hot for June 2017
After period of warmer global average temperatures, June 2017 experienced a mean anomaly of 0.21°C. The figure was 0.05°C higher than Professor Armstrong's forecast, and 0.25°C lower than Mr Gore's IPCC warming projection. Despite the fall in average temperature and a clear win for the month for Professor Armstrong, 59% of previous months over the course of the bet were cooler.
As always, there were regional variations. For example, the average temperature anomaly over land in the southern hemisphere was (slightly) negative.

Letter to MIT President Reif in effort to dispel dangerous warming delusions
In a letter dated June 2 sent to the MIT Community entitled, "Letter regarding US withdrawal from Paris climate agreement," MIT President, Professor L. Rafael Reif criticized the decision taken by President Donald Trump to exit the Paris Agreement. In the following rebuttal of Professor Reif's letter, we seek to clarify the state of scientific understanding of climate. We do so in order to dispel the popular delusions that we are faced with a problem of dangerous manmade global warming, and that the Paris Agreement would be beneficial.
Istvan Marko, J. Scott Armstrong, William M. Briggs, Kesten Green, Hermann Harde, David R. Legates, Christopher Monckton of Brenchley, Willie Soon
1. "Yesterday, the White House took the position that the Paris climate agreement – a landmark effort to combat global warming by reducing greenhouse gas emissions – was a bad deal for America." [Emphasis added to correspond to our comment.] Reif (2017).
To the best of our knowledge, there is no scientific basis unambiguously establishing that CO2 is the main driver of the modest temperature increase observed since the end of the Little Ice Age… [More]
May 2017: Global temperature ticks up for 2 months running
A good month for Mr Gore with UAH's global average temperature figure almost on the Gore/IPCC red warming line after two months in a row of increasing temperatures. This is an uncommon event: during the 113 months of the bet, so far, temperatures have increased for two months running only 20% of the time.
Runs of temperature increases or decreases are the exception. Three months of increasing temperatures has only occurred for 6% of the bet months, so an increase again in June would be even more unusual. By contrast, three months running of falling temperatures has occurred for 9% of the 113 bet month.
Despite the warmer month, Mr Gore's cumulative absolute forecast error remains nearly 22% greater than the error from Professor Armstrong's Green-Armstrong-Soon no change forecast.
Month 112 of 120 month Climate Bet (April 2017) sees temps near average, again
April's UAH temperature anomaly came in at 0.27°C, up from March (0.19°C), but well down on the 2016 average of 0.5°C. With 8 months of The Climate Bet left to run, we ask again, "how high would temperatures need to be over the remainder of 2017 for Mr Gore to win The Bet?"
If the temperature anomaly equalled the high for the period of The Bet so far (0.83°C) for the rest of this year, Professor Armstrong would still win The Bet backing the Green-Armstrong-Soon no-trend forecast. In fact, any plausibly extreme warm temperatures over the remainder of 2017 would still leave Professor Armstrong as the clear winner.

Feb 23 – CROSSING THE CONTINENT AGAIN, WEST-TO-EAST
Sydney, Day 1: Long Walk from Darling Harbor to Circular Quay and Back Follows Freezing 4.5-hour Flight from Perth
Well, here we are, at the last leg of our Australian adventure – Sydney. We arrived at the country's largest city in early evening after a 4.5-hour flight from Perth, shaking and shivering on a freezing flight despite our several requests to the crew to get the cabin temperature up.
Our Hawaiian Air flight from Honolulu to Brisbane was also cold. But this Virgin Australia experience was much worse. Why do the airlines think that they are transporting slabs of beef, not people?
We arrived at the Sydney airport just as the final Oscars were being handed out at the Academy Awards in Hollywood.
"Birdman?" I repeated rhetorically after seeing the Best Picture announcement on an airport TV screen. "What's that?"
Elizabeth just shrugged herself.
Right after checking into our hotel on the city side of the beautiful Darling Harbor area , we went out for a long walk around the city. To warm up after that Virgin flight, not just to sightsee.
We did not get back until after 9 PM/ The length was unintentional. We thought we would follow the east bank of the Darling Harbor for a while and the cut over into the city and walk to the Circular Quay.
Alas, that was not to be. Without a map, we had no idea that an impassable hill and a wall barrier would prevent us from doing it.
We walked and walked until we got to and under the Harbour Bridge. It was only here that we were able to climb up and onto the Rocks part of Sydney (see the map). Elizabeth was exhausted (she does not like climbing). But at least now we were both quite warm.
By that stage, the sun was already setting. So the rest of the photos were taking in dimming light.
Elizabeth cheering that we had finally made it to our destination 🙂
We walked back to the Sydney Town Hall along George St, before turning back and finally returning to our hotel. And a well-deserved dinner. It was just before 10 PM. And even in the Darling Harbour area, the restaurants were already closing.
By the way, while walking along George St, we saw what could be the world's largest Apple store. Take a look above – three stories high! That's bigger than even the Apple store in Manhattan near the Park Plaza hotel. Or whatever it is that the condos are now called.
"Guess they love them Apples in Australia," I jokingly said to Elizabeth.

Bath Time Stinks
I've been having some major issues with my skin these past couple of weeks. Most of the hair on my legs has turned dark brown because of all the licking that I've been doing trying to soothe my poor, irritated skin. This happened around the same time last year, so I'm wondering if it's a seasonal allergy type thing.
Either way, Mom and Dad have taken it into their own hands to give me regular baths now, using special medicated shampoo from the vet. It sucks!
Here I am shivering my butt off in the tub. Thankfully Mom and Dad only washed my legs here, so at least part of me wasn't freezing cold. But they did make me stay in the tub for 10 whole minutes to let the shampoo set in.
Poor me. Sigh.
When I was finally rinsed off and allowed out of the tub (sweet freedom), I ran around the first floor like a mad man. Something about water just makes me go nuts. I do the same thing if I've been out in the rain too. Mom and Dad find it very amusing, but really, I'm just trying to dry myself out. Duhhhhh.

I am truly a sucker for locally owned, shop local, support local, source local…. and well, all things local. I realized this once I moved to River Falls- because I am in the heart of the town, and when I lived at my parents' house, deep out in the country, it was always a pain to drive into town. Now, living the River Falls I can walk to the local grocery store, and walk to the Farmer's Market, and buy my coffee each morning at the Co-op, and walk to the river for a morning hike. Things are well when living local.
And living local helps Mother Earth, too! I don't drive as much- so I am cutting down on toxic gasses in the air, and by buying local, that is cutting the cost of manufacturing food, transportation, production costs and so many other benefits.
Otherwise, life is swell. I am learning to worry less about my body image- and fighting to be skinny and perfect. Rather, I am striving to simply be happy, HEALTHY, radiant, helpful, peaceful and full of compassion. Change does not happen overnight, but change does happen over time.
After years of refusing medicine to treat depression, a couple months ago I decided to take the leap and accept medicated help. After a duration of taking Celexa, I decided medicine actually was not for me. Celexa does what it's supposed to do- treat depression. I was not feeling so depressed on medicine, but I also was not feeling anything. I hated the numb feeling of depression medicine. Now, I accept my feelings- of every degree. Rather than masking my emotions with medicine, I safely treat my emotions. I understand that I am a human, and emotions are real- and they hurt sometimes. But I don't want to not feel them. I want to feel every emotion I am capable of feeling. And I want to treat each emotion as it needs.
Happy Summer, Happy Days.

Batch files consist entirely of ASCII text characters. You can create batch files in the DOS Editor, in Edlin, and in nearly any other text-editing or word processing program. (If you use a word processing program, you must use a setting that omits the special formatting and control characters that many such programs use for internal purposes.)
The easiest way to create a short batch file, however, is to use the COPY command to redirect input from the keyboard (the CON device) to a file (see Chapter 8, "Managing Your Files," for more information).

Girl in the video is a real beauty. She is a real hottie & being teenager she is always ready to have a good fuck with whichever guy she meets.
She is so much interested in sex that sometimes even her boyfriend finds it difficult to satisfy her. She always wants to have many sex positions during fuck & this naturally requires a lot of stamina which her boyfriend sometimes is not able to deliver.
This couple fucks each other as many times in a week as possible. Today is the day of their regular fuck according to their sex timetable. But on the 11th hour her boyfriend calls her & says, "Baby, one of my relatives has died & I have to go there. So I won't be able to come"
She says, "Its fine. Take care. Call me if you need anything. Love you. Bye."
Cheating with brother sister sex for quenching sex thirst
Actually this hottie is not fine. She badly wanted her boyfriend's dick. Now she has to find another dick soon to get fucked. She can't wait for her boyfriend. She understands her boyfriend's predicament but also doesn't want herself to suffer.
Her cousin is in the condo upstairs. She decides to enjoy his dick for a change & have brother sister sex. She goes to his room.
Due to his beauty & innocence she doesn't require much time to seduce her cousin brother to have brother sister sex with her.
They start with foreplay on cousin's bed but things soon gets hot & she removes her jeans skirt & makes her cousin's dick hard by sucking it so that it is ready for a good cock riding.
She finds it pretty hard & immediately takes a condom & puts it on her cousin's dick & sits on it with a force. Both of them feel the pressure with which her cousin brother's dick went inside her pussy.
Watch the video to see how this couple carries on their brother sister sex.

Traveller's Guide to Meeting (and hanging) with the Locals
One of the very best things about traveling is coming home and
You never know who you may meet when traveling to lands far and dear.
telling of the
While the true flavor of a place can, and most certainly does, derive from it's arts, architecture and culinary delights, can you ever really say that you've been to a new destination if you haven't interacted with its people?
Not only does getting to know some of the locals give you a more true connection to the place you're visiting, it often provides for the very best of stories and memories. But how do you meet them without coming across as either some sort of deranged escaped mental patient, or someone looking to score some illicit action?
First off - learn the linguistic basics before you ever get on the plane - know how to say Hello, Please, Thank You , Good Bye. The words for beautiful, amazing and delicious are also extremely handy as well as a few numbers. And study the map while you're in flight so as not too look like such a tool with that ridiculous lost look on your face.
Study your guide books, if you must, at home, in flight or in your hotel room - but know they will rarely, if ever, be helpful when it comes to meeting people. If a guide book says a certain restaurant, for example, is awash in locals - you can be assured of finding mostly tourists hanging out, looking to capture the non-existent local vibe. To find real comradery, you'll need to look off the beaten path.
One of the very best places to meet locals are in central food markets, and the best one I've ever found for meeting locals is the famous La Boqueria in Barcelona, España. This covered market is in such a vibrant and stimulating location, that it absolutely teams with locals buying the freshest and usually most affordable produce. After photographing the vendors (who can be quite the characters!) and their goods, they will often invite you to sample, and strike up a conversation if they're not too busy. As you wonder through the market you'll see many little nooks and corners to take a seat, order a cup of café, and maybe tuck in with a Spanish tortilla or tarta. As soon as you pull up a chair, you'll be amazed who will saunter up next to you with the morning paper, or stop by to get some refueling after a late night in their pulsating techno clubs.
When in a vibrant city such a Shanghai or Sydney I personally love finding roof top bars and restaurants - the trendy kind, not the revolving floor variety. This appeals to both the traveller and photographer in me. I scout out the cool places with a view, then take advantage of the spot to get beautiful sunsets over the city and capture the very essence of the city at night. People will usually take notice of you, and when you're not shooting, it's quite easy to strike up a conversation with people admiring the view of their home town whilst enjoying the ambiance of the local scene and stealing glances at your LCD.
Speaking of bars, another must-know tip for traveling is the pronunciation of the local words for beer or wine. Not only will it come in handy as you settle in for a drink at that roof top bar or a quaint watering hole that you happen to stumble upon, but it is always a conversation starter, especially if you're willing to buy a round for the interesting folks sitting nearby. The same goes for coffee and deserts when at a sidewalk cafe.
Sometimes just having a camera and a tripod is enough to attract locals to begin a chat with you to see what you're shooting, or make camera small talk or to just shoot the breeze. If you're taking an active interest in their corner of the world, they will often take an interest in you. And nowhere is this more evident than if you attend a local sporting event. Unless the local team is losing horribly, the fans around you will be boisterous and open to sharing their love for team and city if you simply take an interest in the action. A few well placed "the Ref is marde!" or Go-Go Gryffindors!" and you'll be an honorary "Sea Dog" in no time, and be invited to all the after-game festivities.
However, sometimes you might just feel like you're getting a little too immersed in the local culture, because you can't always get away from them when you're in places like China or India. Not only do they have the world's largest populations, but they are also still very curious about foreigners visiting their country. While shooting the Forbidden City at Tiananmen Square, for example, I was inundated every few minutes by people wanting to pose with me or be in my pictures, wanting me to go eat some dumplings with them, asking for me to buy their "genuine" Rolexes, wanting to get involved in long conversations about America or Europe, reading to me from their "genuine" Mao book of poetry, asking if I know Brittney Spears or Michael Jackson, pardoning themselves to please allow them to practice their English, etc. etc...
Do you try to meet the denizens of your travel destinations - how do you go about it?
When we travel we always try to get away from the "tourist" areas and see what the place is really like, how the people live. One of the best ways to do this has been to work as volunteers; we have been in people's houses and worked alongside them. We eat meals together, hunt for construction materials and supplies in the local markets, and generally have a good time.
Whenever I meet someone, we tend to just have the "moment" - never seems to translate into keeping in touch. I usually just meet them in line waiting for tickets or to see some must see attraction. I'll try some of your approaches when I visit Spain this summer. Fun post - keep up the interesting articles!

Panel Noise Contribution Analysis
The Panel Noise Contribution Analysis is a well-known methodology for an airborne Transfer Path Analysis (TPA) in car interior. Pressure contribution from the individual panels at a reference point can be very accurately calculated. Acoustic Trim package treatment can therefore be optimized in terms of frequency and panel area which saves money and time. The method uses only one type of sensors so called particle velocity probes for measuring source strength as well as transfer function (with a reciprocal measurement).
The Microflown PU-based Panel Noise Contribution Analysis is a very fast and accurate method to measure and analyse sound source distributions inside vehicles. Four steps are required to determine typical around 110 panel noise contributions of the interior of a vehicle and to visualize the results in 3D. In the first step the probes are positioned on the interior surfaces The second step is a measurement in a vehicle mode of operation. This step can be done in a laboratory but it is also possible to perform the measurement while driving the vehicle on the road including e.g. windand tyre noise. The source strengths are determined by measuring the acoustic particle velocity close to the panel surfaces. The third step is the determination of the transfer paths from the panels to a certain listening position. This measurement is done reciprocally by using an omnidirectional sound source at the listeners position and measuring the sound pressures at the panels . In a fourth and last step the transfer paths are linked with the operational data gathered in step two.
Frequency range 100Hz - 2kHz
Very high degree of detail; typically 110 single surface contributions
- Very fast; measurements can be performed in just 1 day
Very flexible; measurements can be performed whilst driving
Ideal for sound package optimization and trouble shooting
- Method maintains the structue and acoustic properties of the vehicle

Your little one is really struggling.
You've given your child's issues everything you have and searched for answers high and low. You spend your "free time" reading parenting books and blogs, trying to get hopeful about the next "solution." Time-outs, sticker charts, privileges, consequences, dietary changes. . . The scary truth is that nothing seems to work. Despite all this effort on your end, your child continues to push you away, misbehave, and suffer.
You tiptoe around your child now, trying to prevent the next incident, trying to just be a "happy normal family" for once. The situation has gotten completely out of control and honestly, you don't even know what you feel anymore. Some days you want to scream and pull out your hair. Some nights you lie awake, terrified about your child's future: Will my child grow up to be happy, have healthy relationships, finish school, hold down a job. . . or at least avoid prison? You're completely exhausted, and yet you won't give up. You can't. This is your child: the light of your life. The center of your world.
You're tired of seeing your baby in pain! You're tired of being their punching bag: being disrespected, hit, kicked, disobeyed, screamed at. Despite loving your child immensely, you worry: Do I still like the person they are becoming? What is happening to my brilliant, funny, profoundly sweet little one? What am I missing here? Am I doing something wrong?

Responses (1)
In the Sinemet information guide, it says this:
""Talk with your doctor if your symptoms do not improve after a few weeks of treatment. Also tell your doctor if the effects of this medication seem to wear off quickly in between doses.""
I would say it could take up to a few weeks, but hopefully not that long.

Cluster Computing @ UCR
- Cluster Computing
- Departmentally Maintained Clusters
- Centrally Hosted Dedicated Clusters
- Collaborative Clusters
Cluster Computing
Cluster computing, or "Clustering" is the use of multiple computers working together to perform highly intensive tasks as though they are a single machine. Complex processes are sped up by the use of parallel processing, where a single program is divided and executed on a series of machines simultaneously.
Clustering has been used to process large amounts of data in projects such as Seti@Home and Folding@Home.
UC Riverside offers three cluster models that can be utilized by any interested researcher. Click the tabs above to read about each type of cluster.
The Benefits of Cluster Computing
Cluster computing allows researchers and departments to maximize the most processing power out of a limited budget without the need to invest in a supercomputer or mainframe.
Some benefits of participating in Cluster Computing at UCR are:
- High processing power by utilization of parallel processing.
- Hardware reliability and scalability
- Power, cooling, and FTE provided by Computing & Communications that wouldn't be available to a cluster housed in a researcher's laboratory
- Direct connection to the campus high speed 10 Gigabit backbone
- 10 Gigabit link to Cenic/Internet2
For more information regarding Computational Clusters at UCR, please read the document provided below.
Departmentally Maintained Clusters
This type of cluster is meant for researchers who have computing needs that fall outside of the campus cluster standards.
These systems are built to particular PI/lab/center specifications and managed by PI funded staff, but housed within C&C's data center with C&C staff management, mentoring, or backup provided to the departmental administrator.
Centrally Hosted Dedicated Clusters
Centrally hosted dedicated clusters are built to campus standards so that multiple systems servicing the needs of many researchers can be deployed and maintained by a relatively small number of systems administrators. These campus standard computational clusters will be maintained by Computing and Communications and housed in the campus Co-Location Facility.
Technical staff within Computing and Communications will assist all researchers who wish to be part of this program with purchasing the best solution for their needs.
Intended Users
These clusters will be designed to meet the needs of research labs, research centers, and PIs with relatively substantial compute requirements.
The nodes are readily available high-power 64-bit systems, meant for applications that can easily be distributed, rather than a highly parallelized cluster system with a fast (and expensive interconnect).
Financial Support Model
PIs fund these Standardized/Dedicated Clusters via their own funding sources, including initial complements, extramural funds, etc. PIs are also responsible for maintaining these clusters.
Equipment Obsolescence
To maintain efficient use of all resources dedicated to this program it is important that all hardware housed in the Co-Location Facility be up to date. After a period of three years after any cluster has been purchased and housed in the Co-Location Facility it will be evaluated based on condition of the hardware and the cost of continued maintenance. If it is deemed to be still cost effective to continue to house the hardware it will be retained and evaluated annually after. If it is no longer feasible to continue to maintain the hardware, Computing and Communications will work with the equipment owners to either turn over administration of the cluster to their own staff or assist them with disposing of the obsolete hardware.
Technical Details
Campus Cluster Standards
Clusters housed in the Co-Location Facility must adhere to the following hardware standards:
Computer Nodes
- 1U Rack Mounted Servers
- Dual AMD Opteron 2214 Dual Core Processors
- At least 8 GB of RAM per node
- At least 1 80-160GB Hard Drive
- High quality hardware that is as green as possible
- Dual Gigabit Ethernet ports
- DDR Infiniband interconnect HCA with cable (Optional)
- 3 year warranty
Master Node
- 1U Rack Mounted Server
- Dual AMD Opteron 2214 Dual Core Processors
- At least 8 GB of RAM
- Dual Gigabit Ethernet ports
- 3 year warranty
- Interconnect (Network)
- Gigabit Ethernet switch
- Infiniband fast interconnect switch with embedded subnet manager (Optional)
- No specific standard but PI must consult with Computing and Communications prior to purchase to ensure that the support staff is prepared.
Scheduling/Administration Software
- Perceus for cluster OS provisioning
- Sun Grid Engine is highly recommended but any number of schedulers/resource managers are supported as long as they support interoperability with the UC/UCR Grid.
Operating System
- CentOS or ScientificLinux
These standards will be reviewed from time to time to ensure that clusters purchased as part of this program will be of the high quality and best performance available.
Software Installed
A standard set of software packages will be installed on every centrally hosted dedicated cluster. Researchers may choose to alter this list as they see fit but are responsible for purchasing any non open source software package that isn't part of the initial install.
Other Development Tools/Numerical Libraries
- Sun JDK
- Basic Linear Algebra Subprograms (BLAS)
- GNU Scientific Library (GSL)
- Intel Math Kernel Library (MKL)

Collaborative Computational Clusters
UCR's collaborative cluster provides a shared system as a computing resource for campus researchers with limited financial resources.
Collaborative Cluster Components
The 69 compute nodes available in the cluster are divided into three logical sub clusters.
- Set 1: The first 40 nodes are part of a general purpose cluster that is made available to researchers and sponsored graduate and undergraduate students who do not have access to any other cluster on campus to run computations that take a very short time to run.
- Set 2: The next 24 nodes are part of a base shared cluster system available only to researchers who contribute nodes to expand the cluster.
All nodes in this first set of 64 are part of an extremely fast InfiniBand interconnect. Jobs run on these nodes may take advantage of the low latency communication and high bandwidth that this interconnect offers.
- Set 3: The remaining 5 nodes in the cluster are part of what is known as the Application Cluster and are intended for jobs that cannot take advantage of the Infiniband network.
Intended Users
The collaborative cluster is ideal for researchers with higher end computer needs but without the financial resources to obtain the infrastructure necessary for a fast interconnect (an InfiniBand interconnect switch can add more than $50,000 to the overall cost of a cluster).
Of this group two types are targeted:
- Researchers who need occasional use of computational resources. This group of researchers would be able to make use of the 40 node sub cluster to run the occasional short job.
- Researchers who regularly use high end computation in their research. This group of researchers would have available to them the 24 nodes of the base shared cluster in additional to their own nodes they add to the cluster and for a longer amount of time.
Financial Support Model
The initial complement of 69 compute nodes, master node, InfiniBand interconnect and storage server is provided by Computing and Communications in the campus data center. The master node houses user accounts and is the node on which jobs are launched and applications created and/or compiled.
Faculty researchers who make regular use of the cluster are encouraged to participate in building the cluster by using funding sources at their disposal (such as grants and initial complements) to purchase additional compute nodes.
Gaining Access
Access to the cluster may be done through either the UCR Grid Portal or through SSH to the head node.
An advisory panel of one representative of each research group that has contributed will be established to recommend policy changes on the collaborative cluster to the Associate Vice Chancellor of Computing and Communications. This group will also review requests for abnormal uses of the cluster such as a request to use all available nodes for a special research project.
Technical Details
Special care as been made to ensure that this cluster is as green as possible. This includes using lower voltage processors and more efficient power supplies.
Researchers who add nodes to the cluster must follow the campus cluster standards. To make the cluster as homogeneous as possible however, the InfiniBand HCA is required.
The hardware specification for the collaborative cluster is as follows:
64 Compute Nodes
- 1U Rack Mounted Servers
- Dual AMD Opteron 2214 HE Dual Core Processors
- 8 GB of RAM per node
- 1 80GB Hard Drive
- High quality hardware that is extremely green
- Dual Gigabit Ethernet ports
- DDR Infiniband interconnect HCA
Master Node
- 1U Rack Mounted Server
- Dual AMD Opteron 2214 HE Dual Core Processors
- 8 GB of RAM
- Dual Gigabit Ethernet ports
- 1.5 TB internal storage
- DVD-RW drive
Interconnect (Network)
- Gigabit Ethernet switch
- QLogic Infiniband fast interconnect switch
Sun X4500 Storage Server (48TB raw capacity)
Backup X4500 Storage Server (offsite, 48TB raw capacity)
Software Installed
Software will be available to researchers who use any of the nodes that have been provided by Computing and Communications. Any nodes that have been added by researchers will have a software suite available that is similar to those with dedicated clusters. Researcher requests to add additional software will be evaluated on a case by case basis.
The collaborative cluster comes with the following software installed.
- ifort (Fortran 77/95)
- icc (C/C++)
- gcc (C)
- g++ (C++)
- g77 (Fortran 77)
- gfortran (Fortran 95)

- TecPlot
All users of the cluster of any either the general purpose component or the shared component will have access to the shared Sun X4500 storage server.
Users of the general purpose component will have a 2 GB home directory quota available to them. This storage space is reserved for data specific to the use of the cluster and is not intended for long term storage.
Researchers who contribute nodes to the cluster will have 1TB for free for distribution to members of their research group and may purchase additional storage in 1TB increments for $2000 each. This cost will not only cover the cost of the disk but of the maintenance and regular backups that will be done.
To ensure the maximum use of the available cycles on the cluster several queues will be established.
General Purpose Component
On the general purpose 40 node component a 24 hour queue will be in effect. This means that any job that is submitted to this queue will be limited to a run time of 24 hours. There is no guarantee of when the job will start and is based on the number of waiting jobs in the queue and the number of cores being requested. Jobs that require more cores will be pushed back in the queue.
Shared Components
Researchers who have contributed nodes will have access to a research group queue that has a time constraint of 14 days. This means that if a researcher has contributed 8 cores to the cluster a job may be submitted that uses up to 8 cores and may run for a maximum 14 days.
These researchers also have access to a 24 hour surplus cycle queue that takes advantage of unused cycles on the base set of 24 nodes provided by Computing and Communications as well as any unused cores on nodes that have been contributed by other researchers.

Remember when Scotty Allen built his own iPhone from parts bought in Shenzhen? This time around, he ups the ante and adds a headphone jack to an iPhone 7. He had to design his own custom circuit board, have it printed, and build it into his iPhone 7. It's an amazing project, and it's an incredibly interesting 30 minute video.
I've spent the past four months in Shenzhen, China, modifying an iPhone 7 to add a fully functional headphone jack. To the best of my knowledge, this is the first time anyone has done anything like this.
In April, I decided to finally upgrade my iPhone 6s to an iPhone7 to get better camera quality for the videos I was shooting when I was out on adventures in the industrial markets and manufacturing world. But I was super annoyed that it doesn't have a headphone jack! I already have headphones I really liked, and I didn't like the idea of having to keep track of an adapter just to use them.
So I figured I'd add my own - after all, how hard could it be?
It turns out, really really hard. But possible.
He sent the circuit board he designed and built to Apple, and open sourced all the schematics needed so those with the right tools and expertise can build it at home.

Probably because he didn't want to deal with the piss poor battery life of those devices. He's already doing lots of video shoots (he says so). Android devices don't even last a day under normal usage, let alone that.
Oh yeah, and their apps are far less capable, on average, than the apps designed for iOS. Might have something to do with it, perhaps?
My S7 Edge last for days. This is such a "your mileage may vary" thing that absolute statements like yours are meaningless.
On tablets, no doubt. On phones? Eh. Not so much. iOS phone applications tend to have these horrible custom UIs with weird designs and custom icons that nobody else uses (consistency is unheard of on iOS), and inter-app communication is still utter garbage on iOS, greatly reducing the usefulness of iOS applications in day-to-day use.
This, too, is far too personal for absolute statements. It's not 2011 anymore.
There is a blanket statement we can make - flagship Android devices (those in the same price range as iOS devices) do get very good battery life.
Yeah, the crappy Android phones all skimp and save on various components, but if you are willing to spend for an iPhone, and you spend similarly for Android, you'll get similar performance. And all the apps are the same at this point - anything worth a damn has been ported to Android at this point, and as Thom pointed out, often it has better interoperability with other apps.
Bit of a reach there.
I'm struggling to think of a time where the iOS or application UIs (phone or tablet) have been inconsistent to the point of even being noticeable.
Thinking about it, I'm sure we could all show examples, but calling that out as being above or below other platforms doesn't seem to make sense to me.
Horrible and weird don't come to mind as adjectives to generalise about iOS.
Having both an iphone 7plus and an Galaxy S7 Edge, the Edge runs circles around the iphone when actually doing things like GPS, long 4k video shoots and watching lots of high res videos on long flights, even listening to podcasts! you just cant compare 3,600mAh vs 2900mah batteries.
GSMArena has probably the most comprehensive battery tests out there:
With that said, Most android phones have tiny batteries, and horrible internal memory transfer rates (due to most only having 8GB or 16GB) so I can totally understand if people have never actually used a good android phone.
Also, A reason you'd want an iPhone is the same reason I have one, I have a lot invested in the apple ecosystem, plus I actually prefer the iOS UI most of the time (though android is improving at an amazing pace...if you are willing to pay to keep up).
I wonder if I could build an iPhone 7 Plus with a larger battery....thats gotta be easier than a headphone jack....
You have TWO smartphones?.. Oh wow, I cannot stand even one for longer periods of time. I had many flagship smartphones, such as Samsung Galaxy S series, HTC's top of the line and more, and every time I end up going back to proper phone (with real buttons and 2" screen) in about half a year or so. I have now stopped trying and will not try any more smartphones in my life.

Bisexual and Bisexuality
Bisexual: A person who is attracted to both people of their own gender and another gender. Also called "bi". Join the conversation with specific topics related to the bisexual community.
Bisexual Pride Flag
Bisexuality is romantic attraction, sexual attraction or sexual behavior toward both males and females, or romantic or sexual attraction to people of any sex or gender identity; this latter aspect is sometimes termed pansexuality.
The term bisexuality is mainly used in the context of human attraction to denote romantic or sexual feelings toward both men and women, and the concept is one of the three main classifications of sexual orientation along with heterosexuality and homosexuality, which are each parts of the heterosexual–homosexual continuum. A bisexual identity does not necessarily equate to equal sexual attraction to both sexes; commonly, people who have a distinct but not exclusive sexual preference for one sex over the other also identify themselves as bisexual.

Since we were celebrating four years whaelse.com last week on Sunday, I didn't share a "24 hours a day, 7 days a week"-post with you. But we're back to normal, so here is a little recap of what happened the past week. As you already know it has been a very busy week, I had a lot of work to get done and was totally exhausted on Friday and more than ready for the weekend. Yesterday was very calm, we only shot a new outfit, watched TV and Netflix and didn't do a lot at all. Today will be a similar day 😉 But that's how I love my weekends: calm and relaxed.
The pictures are summery of my past week. We made delicious pancakes with pomegranate on Monday and ate them while we were watching the new episode of The Walking Dead. This was the last episode before the break, now we have to wait a couple of months for the next one -.- but I hope it'll be worth the wait. We didn't eat all the pancakes that evening – I made about 15 -, so I had some of them left for breakfast on Tuesday! 🙂 Another food highlight was the delicious pizza you can see in the following! I enjoyed it to the fullest.
Enough food talk. I hope you like the pictures we shot for you during the past week. Leave me a comment and let me know what you did the past week 🙂 Have a great Sunday. xx

(PNS) -- The April 25 acquittal of the three police officers accused of killing Sean Bell in November 2006 will complicate Barack Obama's efforts to win the presidency in November 2008.
His candidacy already mired in the racial machinations of his opponents, Hillary Clinton and John McCain, Obama will find himself having to maneuver between the need to speak out on the most egregious, high-profile example of institutional racism and police brutality since the Rodney King beating and the need to deflect Clinton and McCain's racialized attacks aimed at fomenting white fear of blacks and other non-whites.
While it has helped him win white votes, Obama's approach to dealing with such racism by pointing to the black and white pictures of the civil rights past will not help him with his base in the black community and other communities. With the 16th anniversary of the Rodney King beating looming on the horizon this Aug. 29, none of us will be in any mood to hear calls for "hope" or "change" without similar calls for "justice."
Unfortunately for Obama's presidential bid, calls for justice from African-American and other groups often trigger fear among some white voters. The political shifts brought on by the Republican Party's "Southern strategy" were premized on precisely these racial and political calculations. With the help of political strategist Kevin Phillips, Richard Nixon pointed to black anger as a way to persuade white southern voters that the Republican Party could best represent their interests.
At a time when blatant racial codes have given way to the subtler racism of a post-Southern strategy era, Obama finds his historic presidential bid bogged down by the new racial codes being engineered by the Clinton and McCain campaigns -- and the mainstream media. Responses to the Sean Bell verdict will surely provide more political and racial fodder to those who won't let the Jeremiah Wright scandal rest -- those who appeal to white fear by linking Obama to fabricated images of black anger.
Obama's attempts to speak about real black anger during his Philadelphia speech do not appear to have been well received if the media's ongoing obsession with Jeremiah Wright is any indicator. Failure to use his rhetorical gifts to speak forcefully about real anger over the Sean Bell verdict may re-animate doubts about commitment to that part of his base that is not white middle- and working-class.
Beyond Obama, all of us need to raise our voices and point at the abyss of our country's institutional racism as was painfully and transparently reflected in today's verdict. We might want to start by pushing Obama, Clinton and McCain -- and the mainstream media -- to speak honestly and continually about what the 50 bullets in Sean Bell say about justice in the 50 states of our tattered and bloodied union.

March 30, 2009 --Two cousins from the north suburbs are recovering from a scare while driving home from the city. Sheri Kaad and Sari Burton were on their way home early Sunday morning when a piece of concrete slammed through their car's windshield. They were heading northbound on the Edens Expressway at Peterson when they heard a loud noise. After pulling over to the side of the road, Kaad realized her cousin was hurt.
"I looked at her and there were little splatters of blood on her face. It just seemed like maybe from the glass, and it was really scary," said Sheri Kaad, driver.
"I felt something hit me. And I looked up and had no idea what had happened 'cause I didn't see anything. All of a sudden I just saw a big hole, the windshield had shattered. And then a couple seconds later, we were looking around and found on the floor by my feet, I saw this huge piece of concrete," said Sari Burton, passenger.
Kaad's car has significant damage. And in spite of that she says the state police told her story didn't "add up." She claims to have offered to take a breathalyzer test but the state trooper told her it wasn't necessary.

4 Weeks Plan To Help You Achieve The 500 Bodyweight Workout Challenge – [Infographic]
Who says you need to go to the gym regularly in order to stay in shape? Well, on the contrary, you can still look amazing with greater fitness levels without relying on any gym equipment. The 500 bodyweight workout challenge is undeniably a revolutionary way of burning body fat by employing a combination of multi-muscle exercises. These exercises will do a fabulous job in burning calories and fat, in addition to keeping your metabolism increased for hours after the exercises.
So How Does this 500 Bodyweight Workout Challenge Look?
Firstly, you need to understand that a 500 bodyweight workout challenge is intense and requires a trainer to be lean, fit and an advanced level exerciser. Preferably, a trainer should be able to perform at least 15 or more pull-ups easily, without any troubles.
If you find yourself a little less prepared for this challenge, then you can try different bodyweight programs such as bodyweight 100. Then, but slowly, go to a more advanced level of 200, 350, before finally reaching to 500.
Ok, now read further if you know for sure that you are ready (mentally and physically) to start a 500 bodyweight workout challenge.
Remember this challenge is performed by relying only on bodyweight exercises, which means you won't have to rely on weights or equipments, and this is why it is even more challenging in nature. For instance, in this challenge, exercises such as squats, lunges, and pushups are involved, which can all be performed without even going to the gym.
Here is an info-graphic by Neublau that tells you how you can achieve the 500 body weight workout challenge in 4 weeks:
When it comes to burning more calories and preserving lean muscle mass, interval training is king. But pay close attention to your work to rest ratio, especially for fat loss. For body weight workout, you need to challenge your cardio, increase your mobility, shape your core, and develop your strength.
Below mentioned is a series of 5 amazingly powerful and high intensity exercises that you can do almost anywhere.
1 Fast Mountain Climbers
Try to complete 50 reps for each leg. If you are new to this challenge, go slow and easy with your reps.
2 Jump Squats
It is recommended to complete 50 reps in total.
3 Push Ups
It is recommended to complete 50 reps in total.
4 Forward Lunges
You should complete 25 reps each side.
5 Burpees
You may find doing burpees a bit hard when you do them, but it's worth the hard work. They are indeed one of the most efficient and functional exercises that you can perform in your 500 bodyweight workout challenge. Burpees, unlike other exercises, do not work in isolation, which means with burpees you will be working with pretty much all muscles in your body. They will augment your endurance, help in weight loss, and make your muscles stronger.
It is recommended to complete 50 reps in total.
A Quick Wrap!
As you can read, most of these exercises require you to complete 50 reps in total, which may sound intimidating, especially if you are not used to doing high intensity trainings. Remember to take it slow and build up gradually.
