ChaiScript is an embedded scripting language designed from the ground up to directly target C++ and take advantage of modern C++ development techniques. Being a native C++ application, it has some advantages over existing embedded scripting languages. It uses a header-only approach, which makes it easy to integrate with existing projects. It maintains type safety between your C++ application and user scripts. It supports a variety of C++ techniques including callbacks, overloaded functions, class methods, and STL containers.
Synth is a C++ template framework - a set of components that can be mixed and matched to build the right functionality; furthermore, components are loosely-coupled, designed to be both extensible and replaceable. Synth blurs the line between compile-time and runtime, and it does so by blending the static C++ type system, the dynamic values that need to be manipulated and formatted, including those from other languages, and the templates to do so. The name is an allusion to this synthesis process, which combines values to generate new ones (streams, files, strings, numbers, etc.)

It's understandable that margins are
often slim on certain items in the retail business, and companies
look to offer additional services to help bolster the bottom line.
However, Best Buy seems to take things to the extreme at times.
Best Buy's Geek Squad division often
comes under a lot of scrutiny for high-priced services. Earlier this
year, The Consumerist called out Best Buy's "worthless"
$40 optimization service for new computers. Today, however, the
electronics retail giant is being called out for PS3 firmware updates
to DualShockers.
A Best Buy in New York is offering
customers a service which tacks an extra $30 onto the purchase price
of a new 120GB PS3 system that has been upgraded to the latest
firmware. According to Best Buy, the firmware update includes:
For PS3 users, performing a firmware
update on the PS3 is simple as going to the system menu and selecting
system updates. All of this is of course free to the user and
requires nothing more than a few button presses on the controller
(and an internet connection).
Of course, Best Buy's firmware update
is an optional service and no one has to purchase it -- just like
customers don't have to purchase optimizations services for new PCs
-- but it just seems a little off-putting to say the least.

While the investigation into the tragic explosion that took place at our facility in Chengdu is ongoing, we have addressed the preliminary finding, that the accident was likely due to an explosion of aluminum dust in a ventilation duct, by putting in place improvements in workshop ventilation, a total revamping of the policies and practices related to the disposal of that dust, and through the application of new technologies that will further enhance the safety in these workshops.The new measures we are employing in our workshops, which have resumed operation following the review referred to above, are a direct response to our efforts to ensure that we are applying the highest possible safety practices. Should the investigation identify any additional areas where enhancements could be made, we will not hesitate to immediately implement those measures.
Our meetings today indicate that the Chengdu facility has been held back by yield issues on certain outside components; thus, the operation may not have reached the optimal utilization rate. Therefore, the explosion in Chengdu may result in more of an equilibrium situation with certain component vendors, rather than a shortage situation. Netting this all out, we believe the production of iPad 2 will be supply constrained during the June quarter; however, we are not prepared to place the bulk of the blame on the Chengdu operation.

With all the rabid anticipation surrounding the PlayStation 3, it may sadden
many of you to hear that Japan will not be
the only territory that will face a cut in its launch numbers.
According to a GameSpot report, North
American retailer GameStop (who also runs EB Games) has received a launch
allocation that is less than its number of pre-orders.
On October 10, GameStop took PlayStation 3
pre-orders, which sold out nationwide within minutes. Most stores limited
pre-orders to eight units, which was based on original Sony estimates on
Now, it appears that many GameStop stores will be unable to honor its "launch
day" pre-orders. A GameStop representative confirmed this news, but had no idea
as to the extent of the supply shortfall.
"We are beginning to notify our customers that our initial shipment of PS3
systems will not be what we expected," the representative said. "As this is not
an ideal situation, we are asking employees to wait to purchase systems until
the second shipment. We are anticipating having systems to cover reservations
before Christmas."
Customers with PS3 pre-orders from GameStop can expect to be contacted by
phone shortly to confirm the status of their reservation. Those who will be left
out of the initial round on launch day will be given a consolation item of a
free used game or DVD of choice valued at $19.99 or less.
This development will have a ripple effect on those who have sold their
pre-orders on eBay with the condition that the item will ship on launch day.
Many eBay bidders will be very unhappy to learn that the thousands
of dollars they spent on a launch-day PS3 will be facing delays.

A popular and, if used appropriately, helpful way of estimating a privately held company's fair market value is to use a comparable publicly traded company's market multiple of value (i.e., price to earnings ratio, or the price of a stock divided by earnings per share). However, small business owners must be careful not to simply assume that their firms are worth the same multiple of net earnings as that of a larger, publicly traded firm. Simply put, just because your firm manufacturers machine parts does not mean that its fair market value is the same as that of Eaton Corp. The business owner must be careful when an adviser suggests that the fair market value of his or her company can be best estimated by using the current average multiples of value derived from a comparable peer group of publicly traded companies. This methodology requires that you first identify a group of four to eight publicly traded firms that are in a similar industry to that of the privately held firm. Secondly, you calculate the current average multiple of values (market capitalization/revenues, market capitalization/EBITDA, market capitalization/net income, etc.) that these comparable firms trade at as a group. Finally, you use these comparable multiples of value and the target company's financial results (revenues, EBITDA, net income, etc.) to estimate a fair market value of the target company. This valuation methodology only can produce meaningful results if the adviser makes adjustments for: 1) the difference in the liquidity of publicly traded stocks versus privately held stocks, 2) the comparability differences between large and small firms, and 3) the change-of-control premium inherent in all change-of-control acquisitions. Publicly traded stocks can be converted into cash at a known value in a quick and inexpensive manner. Privately held stock cannot. Academic studies reveal that the difference in fair market value between liquid and illiquid equity securities ranges from 20% to 70%. Consequently, a lack of liquidity discount must be considered. Markets value large companies at much higher multiples of value than they do smaller companies within the same industry (think real estate value between small towns and large towns). Accordingly, a lack of comparability discount must be considered. Publicly traded securities trade on a minority interest basis. The owner of one share of IBM does not have an impact on the day-to-day operations of IBM. This is why most acquirers are forced to pay a premium above the fair market value in order to induce the owners of a publicly traded company to sell. Research reveals that this control premium averages between 25% and 45% for most industries. Consequently, a premium for change of control must be considered. Bottom line: The owner and adviser who use the peer group of comparable publicly traded companies methodology and do not consider the above three adjustments risk entering the mergers and acquisitions market with unrealistic expectations and a sales price that will not attract buyers.

The lack of a
consistent signal inside the office or home means that users
experience dropped calls and slower data speeds. The answer to this
problem seemed to be femtocells. A femtocell is a small device that
looks similar to a router for internet access that picks up the
wireless call and sends it over the user's broadband network rather
than the mobile phone network.
Femtocells were also looked at
as a way for mobile network operators to improve speeds and reduce
the overall load on their networks. The reality is that femtocells
have been deployed in much lower numbers than was predicted by
analysts and mobile providers.
ABI Research today issued
a notice that it had reduced the expected number of femtocells
that will ship this year by 55%. The research firm blames the
reduction in its estimates on the fact that mobile operators have
been slower to adopt the technology than expected. ABI now estimates
that 350,000 femtocells will have been shipped by the end of the
ABI's Aditya Kaul said, "Even femtocell vendors are
a bit surprised that the operators haven't pushed femtocells as
much or as soon as expected. We expect that deployments in 2010 will
pick up but will be slower than expected – our data suggests about
a 40% reduction on previous estimates."
As for why
carriers are slow to adopt the technology the reason is unclear. ABI
reports that some feel femtocells have yet to prove their worth.
Others believe that the poor economy is contributing to the slow
adoption. The economy is a good reason. Femtocells require users to
pay more each month to provide better signal. A strong signal is
something that many users expect their carrier to provide for the
money they already pay each month.
Kaul said, "We still
believe in this market's potential. We anticipate that by 2014,
shipments will only be about 10% lower than our previous estimates.
The drivers are real, but it will take longer than anticipated. Next
year will be critical: if conditions don't improve by the end of
2010, some smaller vendors may find themselves in trouble."
reported in March that femtocell
deployment was slow due to the economy. At the time, the number
of femtocells shipped was expected to climb to over a million units
in 2010.
The launch of femtocells from Verizon
was expected to happen
in 2008, which never really materialized. Verizon then reported
that it would launch
femtocells in early 2009 along with handsets that would support
Femtocells. Verizon is currently offering femtocells to its customers
for an extra $10 to $20 per month added to the phone bill.

After being out of the spotlight for months, Steve Jobs -- Apple CEO, founder, and guiding hand -- will soon be returning from his health leave.
A pioneer of the digital revolution, Mr. Jobs has been suffering from complications surrounding the pancreatic surgery, which he had several years ago to remove cancer. The operation spared his life, but according to a knowledgeable party left him unable to properly gain nutrition. The source states, "He was one real sick guy. Fundamentally he was starving to death over a nine-month period. He couldn't digest protein. [But] he took corrective action."
That turnaround is good news for Apple's fans. After all, it was Jobs that masterminded Apple's best-selling products -- the iconic iPod, the iPhone, and the MacBook Air -- a product trio that returned Apple to a leading position in the electronics industry. Apple's fans are hoping Mr. Jobs will show up at Apple's San Francisco WWDC conference which starts Monday. It is widely expected that Apple will announce new hardware at the conference, including a new iPhone, and potentially new iPods or Mac computers.
Richard Doherty, an analyst at technology consultancy Envisioneering Group, doesn't believe Mr. Jobs will be at the conference. He states, "He likes to surprise people, but we don't think that's likely to happen at WWDC."
Apple spokesman Steve Dowling merely commented, "We look forward to Steve returning to Apple at the end of June."
However, some believe that Apple will do fine whether he comes back or not -- they point to Apple's success on the stock market in the past several months. States Mike Binger, a fund manager at Minneapolis-based Thrivent Asset Management, "I think it's becoming less and less of a key variable. This past time period has proven that Apple as an entity can survive without Steve Jobs going to work on a daily basis."
However, it's hard to separate Jobs from Apple and Apple from Jobs, and it seems likely the two will soon be reunited. Stay tuned next week to see if there are any surprises.

Choosing Our Cheese: Cabot Clothbound Cheddar
Every two months or so, Tripp, our domestic cheese buyer in Cambridge, and I, domestic cheese buyer for our South End location, drive up to Greensboro, Vermont and visit with our friends at the Cellars at Jasper Hill. The purpose of these trips is primarily to select new wheels of Cabot Clothbound Cheddar.
Artisan cheeses, like Cabot Clothbound Cheddar, tend to differ slightly from one batch to another – even wheels made one day apart and aged under the same conditions, can be surprisingly different. These variations can be attributed to the season, to changes in the weather and to what the cows might have munched on the day they were milked. I like to think of it as a sort of time capsule, a way of capturing a moment of the farm's existence in time.
Our proximity to and relationship with the Jasper Hill team has enabled us to be selective about the specific flavor profile of the Cabot cheddar we carry at Formaggio Kitchen. In fact, we are the only shop that regularly visits the Cellars to taste through different batches of the cheese, selecting the wheels we feel our customers will like best. Tripp and I look for batches that successfully balance salty and savory notes with hints of wonderful caramel sweetness. We also look for a rich, creamy and well-developed texture. Generally, we have found that the wheels we prefer have been aged about one year.
When we arrive at the Cellars, we meet with Zoe or Vince, who guide us through their vaults of cheese. We tell them a little bit about what we are looking for and how many wheels we are looking to buy – this helps them guide us to cheeses that are likely to be a good fit. We typically try anywhere from 3 to 5 different batches of Cabot, usually made just a few days apart.
Each batch has a test wheel and, using a cheese iron, we are able to extract a sample from the wheel without cutting it open, something that would stop the aging process. After each taste, we take notes on the flavor and texture, and move on to another batch. Once we've decided on a winner – or sometimes two – we help wrap and prepare our chosen wheels for transport back to the shop where it gets stored in our caves until we need it on the cheese counter.
The most rewarding part of these mini road trips is coming back to the shop and sharing our cheese selections with our customers. We like to think of it as sharing a very personal snapshot of Vermont's rich, cheesemaking landscape. Please – next time you are able to visit us – ask to sample this amazing cheddar. We are always happy to give folks a taste of this cheese, well on its way to becoming a Vermont classic!
Sarah Spira is the domestic cheese buyer and a cheesemonger at Formaggio Kitchen South End.

Many of our company's applications have gone to the cloud. Email, project management, CRM all in the cloud. Easy to work from anywhere. No work when the cloud is broken.
hello all from Edmonton, Alberta. Better late than never.
Thanks Brian
Multicore establishes a whole new set of problems, but also solves some. The biggest problem is that the tools we are using to write and debug multi-core are still basically the ones developed for single core.
Brian, Thanks for sharing your insights & experience. The thought-provoking lecture is well worth enduring the few product placement ads for Intel IP.
multicore systems are not popular among developers... single core developing is more than 50% debugging and multicore code is even more complex.. why is it so???
thanks, vishalzie
since updating flash to beta release 18.104.22.168 i have had no further problems. check your release version in the 'about adobe flash player' and if its the previous version, i guess the problem is that. hopefully adobe will make this beta release a permanent release soon because we all are experiecing crashes
I prefer voice as well. Leads to better conversations.
OK, thanks for considering it.
This week I am trying to do three weeks work as I get ready to go on vacation. All of the publications I write for want stuff to post while I am gone!
and i personally feel that live chat(voice) session is the best way
Sorry, I dont have that much spare time between now and then.
No, it was failing completely for me with Firefox's Flash plugin, but was working sporadically for me with IE's Flash plugin.
i think people attending the session on IE are facing difficulties while its perfect with browsers like mozilla firefox
Another problem is there's no way the real Brian could answer 50 questions at once. So, you'd need an army of answerers, in the general case. But, could you try pre-recording it for us tomorrow?
I have done courses like that in the past where it switched over to a live chat (voice) session after a prerecorded talk.
The only problem is that I would then spend a lot more time trying to make the lecture part perfect...
agree with youkrh82
So, by using a virutual, pre-recorded Brian, the real Brian could answer the questions in real time. It's like being in two places at one time!
Sorry - I don't know whay you cant get to the previous course vishalzie. I am not entrusted with that kind of information...
Agreed. Difficult to keep track of live questions as you are speaking.
i joined eetu few days back and couldnt attend the previous sessions u had in november... will i graduate from this course???
Well, I think it would work better for me, to be able to play back your entire talk. Maybe you don't need to see what we're blogging as you speak.... Only you know how much that impacts the direction of your talk. I'd expect it normally has little impact on what you intended to say...
Not sure what you mean vishalzie.
I have often wondered why they want me to do it live? Would be more sensible to have it pre-recorded.
i cant see my overall progress.... ????
Brian, best would be: you record it at 11:15; let people play it back at nooon, then answer their questions at 12:40 or so... But, I see, you might not be able to respond to their questions in real time as you speak.... Problem.
haha, that is one way to do it!
OK. I can ask as I listen. For example, I'm now on the replay at slide 5...
Then I would miss you on the chat, or perhaps you can ask questions as you are listening. That could work.
In light of the failure of live streaming, I'm going to attend tomorrow's meeting at 12:45, just after live streaming has finished, and the entire session is available for playback. To anyone who experienced hiccups in playback, I'd advocate doing the same.
Thanks, good presentation.
Your welcome.
Fantastic. Thanks again!
Good afternoon, everyone
Hyperthreading can let you get better utilization of a single core. Not as important as mjulti-core or hypervisor technology.
I didn't really touch on hyperthreading at all. This is where a single processor executes more than one thread at the same time - interleaving them.
Maybe the problem is due to VIRTUALIZATION!
We did have quite a few people listening in. Maybe they need a better cloud server structure :)
Hi Brian - no questions from today's session - but might have questions for tomorrow's session.
i couldnt really get the idea of hyperthreading... we went on too fast
Perhaps it was too overloaded before.
Now, after the live presentation, the player plays it perfectly, with no hiccups. Wonder why?
Perhaps if you guys dont have too many question, I should just talk longer... What do you think?
anyone have any more questions?
thank you brian!
I do welcome your questions via email – firstname.lastname@example.com However, I want to apologize that after the class on Friday, I will be off on vacation for two weeks, so if any of you attempt to contact me I will not be responding for a while.
Thanks. Good review. I'll check out your past presentation for some more detail. See you tomorrow.
I would encourage you to go back to the pervious course to get more infor on virtualization.
Thank you Brain good infor.
Hope it was useful and sorry I had to ruch so much. 1/2 is just such a short period of time to talk about so many things.
Thank You.
Your welcome aykc88

If everything needs to be globally accessible, then I would agree with you, but many of the sensors, while they have to be identifyable, they do not have to be unique.

You cant win with a guy in the middle who wont rebound or defend...cant.
Trade and begin the process of acquiring thru trade or draft some legit centers who play big at both ends...enough of this perimeter shooting crap..its been a fail from day one.
If BC has to go in order for this guy to get dealt then get rid of bryan as well....Time for some REAL proactiveness...this guy isnt working and its not going to get better...

The impressive figure
encompasses all downloads of the browser since its release in 2004.
More interestingly, W3Schools.com,
an internet research firm, is reporting Firefox to have seized 47.9
percent of the market, jumping ahead of Internet Explorer, which it
says has a combined marketshare of 39.4 percent for versions 6, 7,
and 8.
More conservative StatCounter,
another research firm, puts Mozilla's marketshare at 32 percent,
while putting Internet Explorer's at just about 60 percent.
Both firms' figures are suspect due to inherent difficulties in
determining true browser marketshare. Most firms collect
metrics from a broad array of sites, but even collecting from as many
as 1,000 sites two firms may show great differences in market
pictures, due in part to different kinds of user populations for
their surveyed sites. Furthermore, W3School's analysis is
mostly of tech-related websites, which are visited more by the kinds
of users who would use alternative browsers at a higher
Mozilla does have tough competition for the title of
full-standards third-party browser king. Opera, Google's
Chrome, and Apple's Safari all strive for the title. However,
all of these competitors are dwarfed by Mozilla in the PC market,
with a mere 5 percent of this total market, according to
StatCounter. Meanwhile Microsoft still enjoys a healthy lead of
approximately 60 percent.
Firefox 3.5's popularity comes
thanks largely to its strong support of standards. Like Opera
and others, Firefox features support for SVG graphics and other
modern standards -- many of which are not supported by Internet
Explorer 8's default install. The browser also features brand
new standards such as HTML 5, which is viewed as a possible
non-proprietary successor to Adobe's Flash and Microsoft's
Silverlight rich web platforms. HTML 5 features support for
videos among other things.
Mozilla, Opera, and others should
enjoy a healthy boost overseas if Microsoft's offer to include a
ballot screen in Windows 7 is accepted by the EU. The move,
designed to fulfill antitrust compliance, would allow users to pick
between IE 8, Firefox, Opera, Chrome, and Safari upon installation of
Windows 7.
In honor of the billion dowloads mark, Mozilla has
launched a new promotional website OneBillionPlusYou.com. It is
also hard at work, preparing iterative updates 3.6 and 3.7, which
new themes. It also is working on Firefox 4.0, which should
raise the bar even higher.

Sugar is a common substance we use to flavor our foods,
which our bodies convert into usable energy. Sony must have figured that sugar
may also be able to power some of its electronic devices, as the company has announced
the development of a battery technology that generates electricity from
carbohydrates utilizing enzymes as its catalyst.
The system developed by Sony generates energy from the
breakdown of sugars by "immobilizing enzymes and the mediator (electronic
conduction materials) while retaining the activity of the enzymes at the anode."
Sony also said that it developed a new cathode structure
which efficiently supplies oxygen to the electrode while ensuring that the
appropriate water content is maintained. The careful optimization of the electrolyte
for these two technologies has enabled test cells of this bio-battery to achieve
power output of 50 mW – which Sony claims is currently the world's highest
level for passive batteries of its kind.
The bio-battery cells measure a cubed 39mm with a volume of
40cc and generate enough power to run a Sony Walkman digital music player. It
may be a while before such battery technology would be ready for the consumer
market, as the current bio-battery cells are larger than the devices they can
Researchers elsewhere have also been investigating
alternative ways to power electronics. Earlier this month, researchers from the
Fraunhofer Institute were able to construct a method of turning body heat into
electricity using the same principal as thermoelectric generators (TEG)
made from semi-conductor elements.

"The first version of OLPC's child-centric laptop, the XO, is a revolution in low-cost, low-power computing. The XO has been distributed to more than 1.4 million children in 35 countries and in 25 languages," said Nicholas Negroponte, the founder and Chairman of One Laptop per Child.
Mass production of the XO-1 first started in November 2007. Computer technology has made significant advances over the last two years, and the XO-1 is getting long in the tooth. The XO-1 features an AMD Geode CPU running at 433MHz, 256MB of DDR DRAM, and 1GB of SLC NAND flash memory for storage. A 7.5-inch screen with a 1200x900 resolution is used. Wireless networking is enabled by a chip from Marvell, while a built-in camera, microphone, and speakers add functionality. A variety of battery choices are available. The XO-1 only uses 2W to run.
The OLPC project will introduce a new XO-1.5 in January 2010 using the same basic design. However, it will drop AMD in favor of a VIA C7-M Ultra Low Voltage CPU which will double operating speed. DRAM will be increased to 1GB, while 4GB of flash memory will be the standard, with an option for 8GB. It will be capable of running Windows and Linux, and is targeted for a $200 price.
Two other designs have been added to the OLPC roadmap. The XO-1.75 is currently targeted for the $150 mark and an early 2011 launch. The design will be updated, with rubber-bumpers on the outside for added shock protection. A new 8.9-inch touch-sensitive display will be used. The project is working with Marvell on integrating a new ARM processor that will double speeds while cutting power consumption by 75%. This ARM-based system will complement the x86-based XO-1.5, which will continue to remain in production to give deployments a choice of processor platform.
The XO-3.0 is being developed for 2012 at a target price of less than $100. It will feature a new tablet design using a single sheet of flexible plastic, and will supposedly be unbreakable. The XO 3.0 will leapfrog the XO-2.0, a concept approach that the OLPC project decide not to pursue.
"To fulfill our mission of reaching 500 million children in all remote corners of the planet, OLPC will continue to innovate in design and performance. Because we are a non-profit, we hope that industry will copy us," Negroponte added.
The XO-1 helped to establish that low-cost netbooks could be functional and affordable, and helped push Intel into developing the Atom. Former OLPC CTO Mary Lou Jepsen left the project to form Pixel Qi, a fabless firm which designs and and markets energy-saving screens that are readable in daylight. There is no word yet on which OLPC netbooks will use the technology, but Pixel Qi just entered mass production of its first 10.1 screens for use with new Pine Trail netbooks, and its future screens are rumored to be used in Apple's tablet computer.
Walter Bender's Sugar interface has also been spun off. Originally designed for the OLPC project, it is now being developed by Sugar Labs and is available for free under a GNU General Public License.

Standard run of the mill type stuff, however...3. The Raptors should trade Andrea Bargnani.
A. Agree strongly.
B. Agree somewhat.
C. Disagree somewhat.
D. Disagree strongly.
Ford: A. Agree strongly. Bargnani has been an example of a player whose team internally values him more than other teams have for years. This has been Raptors GM Bryan Colangelo's project and after years of false starts, it's pretty clear he will never live up to his promise. I don't think there's any team dying to take on his deal, but if the Raptors are willing to offer some of their young players in return, the equation may change quickly.
Ham: B. Agree somewhat. Bargnani is talented, but he really needs the right situation to flourish, and I'm not sure he can find that again in Toronto. The Raptors have compiled some nice complementary pieces in Kyle Lowry, DeMar DeRozan and Jonas Valanciunas, but Bargnani isn't a franchise guy, and you have to wonder if both the team and the player in this situation wouldn't benefit greatly from a change.
McGowan: A. Agree strongly. Bargnani seems to have openly quit on his team, but who wants to pay $23 million over the next two seasons for an inefficient power forward who can't guard anyone? The Raptors might have to package him with a more enticing asset if they want to get rid of him.
Schmidt: C. Disagree somewhat. His value will never be lower. If he can be a part of a larger deal, such as one that could bring in a Gasol, then sure, let him go. But don't just punt Bargs for the sake of starting over. This season is a loss anyway, so the Raptors might as well let him try to boost his value.
Soriano: A. Agree strongly. While still young, Bargnani's game has plateaued in Toronto. Also, his poor defense and single-focused offensive approach require too specific a team to surround him, but he's not elite enough to justify being a building block who shapes their roster construction. A change of scenery would do both sides some good.
Wait, what?2. The Cavaliers should trade Anderson Varejao.
A. Agree strongly.
B. Agree somewhat.
C. Disagree somewhat.
D. Disagree strongly.
Ford: A. Agree strongly. Sell high. Varejao is playing like an All-Star this year and he has stayed healthy. A number of teams in contention, led once again by the Timberwolves, are in the hunt for him. The Cavs want multiple young assets or draft picks back in return. Again, I don't see a perfect fit. The Bucks are a possibility, as they have a number of interesting young bigs. I wouldn't be shocked to see the Raptors go after him as well. They have a number of interesting young players (Jonas Valanciunas and Terrence Ross anyone?) and the rumblings out of Toronto sound as though it needs to start winning now.

"Insightful provocative, and downright entertaining ... a page-turning narrative that blends academic rigor with pop culture sensibility."Boston Globe
"Prominent social psychologist Iyengar begins her unique and invigorating study of choice by telling the story of a man who survived for 76 days stranded alone in the middle of the ocean. He chose to live, Iyengar tells us, just as she has chosen not to let her blindness keep her from conducting prodigious research and intrepid experiments. Iyengar exponentially expands our understanding of the central role choice plays in the lives of animals and humans in a rapid-fire, many-faceted, and original inquiry that is at once personable and commanding. She explains our 'biological need for choice and control,' the decision process, and the myriad influences that dictate everything from purchasing choices to career moves, voting, medical decisions, and marriage. The daughter of Sikh immigrants from India, Iyengar is particularly astute in her globally significant analysis of the striking differences between how Americans and Asians make decisions. Much of this eye-opening anatomy of choice focuses on consumerism, a lively, revealing arena, but Iyengar's high-voltage curiosity and penetrating insights are far more valuable when applied to deeper matters of existence."Booklist

Tax invoices must ordinarily reflect the following details as prescribed by the South African Revenue Service Act, 1997 (Act No. 34 of 1997):
JOHANNESBURG. 26 March 2014. South African Airways (SAA) advises customers that its flights to Germany will depart as per normal schedule today, following the announcement of a pending ground handler strike affecting Frankfurt and Munich.
The airline wishes to further advise customers that although SA260 departing tonight 20h30 to Frankfurt, and SA264 departing 21h20 to Munich will depart as per the normal schedule, customers will be able to disembark on arrival, but the baggage and cargo on these flights are expected to be offloaded as from 14h30 and subsequently delivered to customers.
SA261 from Frankfurt to Johannesburg and SA265 to Munich will depart as per the normal schedule on Thursday, 27 March.

Principal Proposed Natural Treatments
- Zinc With or Without Antioxidants
- Carotenoids (Such as Lutein and Zeaxanthin)
Other Proposed Natural Treatments
Probably Not Effective Treatments
- Vitamin E Alone
- Beta-Carotene Alone
The lens of the eye focuses an image of the world on a portion of the retina called the macula , the area of finest visual perception. Gradual deterioration of the macula is called macular degeneration. After cataracts , damage to the macula is the second most common cause of visual impairment in those over 65. Smoking, high blood pressure, and atherosclerosis are associated with progressive damage to the macula. Ultraviolet light may also play a role by creating harmful free radicals in the eye.
In the most common form of macular degeneration (dry macular degeneration), a substance known as lipofuscin accumulates in the lining of the retina. A much less common form of macular degeneration involves the abnormal growth of blood vessels (wet macular degeneration). This can be treated very successfully, if attended to soon enough, but may lead to irreversible blindness if left untreated. For this reason, medical consultation in all cases of macular degeneration (or any other type of vision loss) is essential.
Principal Proposed Natural Treatments
Note : The treatments described in this section are intended as support to standard ophthalmalogical care, not as a substitute for it. In addition, all studies refer primarily to the more common type of macular degeneration, dry macular degeneration.
Zinc and Antioxidants
A single solid study suggests that zinc, or a mixture of zinc and antioxidants can prevent or slow the progression of early macular degeneration. However it is not clear whether the antioxidant portion of this mixture added any additional benefit.
This double-blind, placebo-controlled trial evaluated the effects of zinc with or without antioxidants on macular degeneration in 3,640 individuals in the early stage of the disease. 1 Participants were randomly assigned to receive one of the following treatments: antioxidants ( vitamin C at 500 mg, vitamin E at 400 IU, and beta-carotene at 15 mg), zinc (80 mg) and copper (2 mg), antioxidants plus zinc, or placebo. The results indicate that zinc alone or zinc plus antioxidants, significantly slowed the progression of the disease.
Note : Zinc at doses of 80 mg and higher daily can be harmful. One of the problems is that high-dose zinc supplementation impairs copper absorption. That's why extra copper was provided in the study described above. However, there may be other risks as well. Physician supervision is advised. For other dosage and safety issues, see the full Zinc article.
Smaller studies of zinc for macular degeneration have found mixed results. 3,4
Note that it's not clear how much the antioxidants in the mixture contributed to the benefits. In fact, there is no convincing evidence that antioxidants alone are effective for preventing or delaying the onset of macular degeneration. A 4-year, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial of 1,193 people with macular degeneration failed to find vitamin E alone helpful for preventing or treating macular degeneration. 16 An even larger and longer study, following over 20,000 people for over 10 years, failed to find that beta-carotene alone reduced the incidence of macular degeneration. 23 A mixture of beta-carotene, vitamin E, and vitamin C has also failed to prove beneficial. 15 And, a review of 3 randomized controlled trials involving a total of 23,099 subjects found no evidence of benefit for vitamin E and beta-carotene. 24
Lutein and Other Carotenoids
Carotenoids are a group of substances that are found in many fruits and vegetables, especially yellow-orange and dark green ones. ( Beta-carotene is the most famous carotenoid). Observational studies suggest that higher intake of dietary carotenoids is associated with a lower incidence of macular degeneration. 5,6 However, observational studies prove little about cause and effect. To determine whether carotenoids can actually prevent or treat macular degeneration, double-blind, placebo-controlled studies are necessary. (For information on why this is the case, see Why Does This Database Rely on Double-blind Studies? )
As noted above, in one very large study, beta-carotene failed to prove effective for preventing macular degeneration. However, the less well-known carotenoids lutein and zeaxanthin might be more promising. 7,8 These carotenoids, principally found in corn and dark green leafy vegetables, are found in high concentrations in the eye. It has been suggested that they may protect the macula from light-induced damage by dyeing it yellow, thereby acting as a kind of natural sunglasses. They also act in the usual antioxidant fashion by neutralizing free radicals. 9
These hopes received support from a double-blind, placebo-controlled trial. 18 This study enrolled 90 people with dry macular degeneration and followed them for 12 months. The participants received either lutein (10 mg), lutein plus antioxidants and a multivitamin/mineral supplement, or placebo. At the end of the study period, participants who had taken lutein alone or lutein plus the other nutrients showed improvements in vision, while no change in vision was seen in the placebo group. A subsequent study failed to find benefit with lutein, but it used a lower dose (6 mg daily) and involved fewer people. 21 Ultimately, further study will be needed to establish whether lutein is actually helpful for macular degeneration. For more information, see the full Lutein article.
Other Proposed Natural Treatments
Like carotenoids, flavonoids are found in many plants and may offer a variety of beneficial effects. Weak but interesting evidence suggests that bilberry and oligomeric proanthocyanidins (OPCs), both rich in flavonoids, may prevent or treat macular degeneration. 11-13
The herb Ginkgo biloba also contains many flavonoids and is additionally thought to increase circulation. In a 6-month, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of 20 people with macular degeneration, use of ginkgo at a dose of 160 mg daily resulted in improved visual acuity. 12 Furthermore, positive results were seen in a 24-week, double-blind study of 99 people with macular degeneration that compared ginkgo extract at a dose of 240 mg per day against ginkgo at a dose of 60 mg per day. 17 Vision improved in both groups, but to a greater extent with the higher dose. This study would have been more meaningful if it had included a placebo group, but nonetheless, "dose-related" effects of this type hint that a treatment may really work. It has been suggested that ginkgo aids vision by increasing blood flow to the optic nerve. However, one study designed to evaluate this possible mechanism of action failed to document such an effect. 22
Weak evidence hints that moderate wine consumption might help prevent macular degeneration. 14 Similarly weak evidence suggests possible benefit with a low glycemic index diet. 19
In observational studies, people who happen to consume a diet rich in omega-3 fatty acids (fish oil) seem to lower their risk of macular degeneration. 25 Similarly, a review of 2 randomized trials with 2,343 patients found that omega-3 fatty acid supplements (taken for periods of up to 5 years) were not effective in preventing or delaying the progression of macular degeneration. 26 One controlled study appeared to find benefit with a combination of acetyl-L-carnitine , fish oil and coenzyme Q 10 but the trial unfortunately failed to use a placebo group which decreases. 20

In a press release Blizzard Entertainment, Inc. announced today that the subscribership for World of Warcraft has exceeded 11 million players worldwide. This milestone was reached as Wrath of the Lich King, World of Warcraft's second expansion, nears its worldwide launch date of November 13.
Mike Morhaime, CEO and cofounder of Blizzard Entertainment commented on World of Warcraft reaching the milestone stating, "It's been very rewarding to see gamers around the world continue to show such strong support for World of Warcraft." He also said, "We remain fully committed to responding to that enthusiasm with a high-quality, constantly evolving game experience."
World of Warcraft debuted in North America on November 23, 2004, and has become the most popular MMORPG around the world. According to the press release World of Warcraft was the bestselling PC game of 2005 and 2006 worldwide, and finished behind only World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade, the first expansion pack for the game, in 2007. In addition to being the bestselling PC game of 2007 in both North America and Europe, The Burning Crusade holds the record for fastest-selling PC game of all time, with nearly 2.4 million copies sold in its first 24 hours of availability and approximately 3.5 million in its first month.

On Saturday, Nov. 3, my familys year-old female Yorkshire terrier was stolen from our front yard on East Empire Street.
I cannot fathom the callous, cold-hearted lowlife that would take a familys beloved pet and a little boys best friend. This person was either too lazy or cheap to go buy their own dog, so they chose to steal ours.
So, pet owners beware; watch them closely.
To the person who now has our dog, you are welcome. We did all the hard work for you, from the purchase of the dog, to the house training and the vet bills. You are welcome. I hope that you will at least treat her the way we did. If you had half a heart, you would return her to the little boy who is devastated that his best friend is gone.

Conseptizer is the combination of two ideas: a closure(-mimic) / higher-order programming and dynamic typing library for the C programming language, and a very dynamic programming language that provides expressiveness through simplicity. It offers powerful features that cannot be found in the mainstream today. Each of these two aspects can be useful on their own, but the combination and tight integration in Conseptizer means that if at some point your runtime performance requirements are not fulfilled by the dynamic language, it is very easy to migrate parts of your program code to C.
The Go Programming Language (Go) is an expressive, concise, clean, and efficient language with concurrency mechanisms that make it easy to write programs that get the most out of multicore and networked machines. Its novel type system enables flexible and modular program construction. Go compiles quickly to machine code yet has the convenience of garbage collection and the power of run-time reflection. It's a fast, statically typed, compiled language that feels like a dynamically typed, interpreted language.
HGL is a compiler/interpreter suite for developing images. It features its own simple but powerful language, Lua integration, output in various formats as well as runtime input handled by plugins, and easy integration into various environments like Web servers or graphical applications. The input is taken from a source file, which has to be compiled for quick and frequent access by the interpreter. An interpreter then runs the compiled files, takes input from custom plugins (if neccessary), and outputs its result via custom plugins.
Nimrod is a statically typed, imperative programming language that tries to give the programmer ultimate power without compromising on runtime efficiency. This means it focuses on compile-time mechanisms in all their various forms. Beneath a nice infix/indentation based syntax with a powerful (AST based, hygienic) macro system lies a semantic model that supports a soft realtime GC on thread local heaps. Asynchronous message passing is used between threads, so no "stop the world" mechanism is necessary. An unsafe shared memory heap is also provided for the increased efficiency that results from that model.
Eero is a binary-compatible variant of Objective-C 2.0, implemented with a patched version of the Clang/LLVM compiler. It features a streamlined syntax with improved readability and reduced code clutter, as well as new features such as Python-like indentation and a limited form of operator overloading. It is inspired by languages such as Smalltalk and Ruby.
Pythonect is an experimental general-purpose dataflow programming language based on Python. It provides both a visual programming language and a text-based scripting language. The text-based scripting language aims to combine the quick and intuitive feel of shell scripting with the power of Python. The visual programming language is based on the idea of a diagram with "boxes and arrows".
o42a is a high-level general purpose programming language. It is compiled, statically-typed, prototype-based, logic-driven, and primarily declarative, while the imperative programming style is also supported. A program written in o42a is closer to natural English text than one written in any C-like programming language. The language is designed with programming productivity and code maintainability as main priorities. This achieved by powerful, yet restrained, semantics, and expressive and natural syntax.
CPC (Continuation Passing C) is a programming language designed for writing concurrent systems. The CPC programmer manipulates very lightweight threads, choosing whether they should be cooperatively or preemptively scheduled at any given point; the CPC program is then processed by the CPC translator, which produces highly efficient event-loop code. This approach gives the best both worlds: the relative convenience of programming with threads, and the low memory usage of event-loop code. The semantics of CPC is defined as a source-to-source translation from CPC into plain C using a technique known as conversion into Continuation Passing Style. The current implementation of CPC has been used to write Hekate, a BitTorrent seeder designed to handle millions of simultaneous torrents and tens of thousands of simultaneously connected peers.
A mass e-mail sender program.

Fynanz Becomes LendKey, Shifts to Cloud-Based Lending
The student lending technology provider Fynanz has rebranded to LendKey, a cloud-based lending platform that enables credit unions to provide auto loans and green construction loans in addition to student loans, the company announced.
LendKey said the new platform allows lenders to safely and quickly access lending markets for multiple asset classes, set up a full-scale, compliant lending operation within weeks and gain access to a community of like-minded lenders. The products built into the platform provide lenders with the tools needed to complete credit decisioning, loan origination, loan participation, loan servicing and demand generation activities, LendKey said.
"A cloud-based lending platform like LendKey can enable lenders to reduce their capital and operational expenditures as they continue to lend and expand into other lending products," said Vince Passione, CEO/founder for LendKey and former CEO for Fynanz.
