I'm in the plummet camp and ride the cardboard wave he has been talking about. I am also about to get a new mako king for light winds. I also use a shinn monk( now that board is a fucking modern miracle) for big boosting f*** off sessions which goes well for heel side carves in the surf. Now and then I take my actual SB out a Murray bourbon custom designed quad.
Have tried really hard to like surfboards, over the west coast of Australia 90 percent of crew ( and that's probably an underestimation) ride SBs now, when there are waves are generally in the metro area where it is shitty crap onshore slop.
So I have had a bundle of production SBs, ridden plenty. Just like the feel of a rail, don't like a board driven by fins. But if do enjoy hitting the surf strapless when it is on, which is a
But the TT, mutant feel is not the same as a SB on a wave, but its a compromise I'm willing to make to have way more fun. Honestly sometimes I'm out there on a day with little waves watching SBs go back and forth and almost put them in the windsurfer camp, almost.
But when it is on, the SBs do shine, they have the speed to bottom turn and get much more vertical on the face to cut back. There are some fantastic riders that I love to watch after my session.
Horses for courses, I love to boost big chuck in a rotation, loop board off or two ( old school shit), then ride back in on a wave. More than that I like the feel of padding underneath me feet and a more centred stance and feel of a tight rail biting in against the kite.
I know mark shinn is working on a small high performance SB that is more rail driven, I'm looking out for that one.
Be nice though to have one board, strapless that you surf on as well. Nice and simple.
Modern mutants can be a shit load of fun, some of you should, try them again, they have come a long way!

EUGENE, Ore. - Former Yale track & field and cross country All-American Lucas Meyer '05 came up short at the U.S. Olympic Team Trials with a 19th place finish in the 3000-meter Steeplechase preliminaries Thursday night in Eugene, Ore.
Needing to finish in the top 14 to advance to the finals for the event, Meyer finished the race in a time of 8:46.53 to place 19th and come up short.
Meyer earned All-America honors in both cross country and the steeplechase his senior year at Yale, finishing 18th at the NCAA Cross Country Championship and 12th at the NCAA Outdoor Track and Field Championships. He set the school record in the steeplechase with a time of 8:36.39 in his preliminary heat at the NCAAs. Meyer was the IC4A steeplechase champion in 2005 and was a two-time Heps champion in the event as well. He also was Heps and IC4A champion in the 5,000-meter run indoors his senior year. He set the school record in the 5,000 at IC4As in 2004.
Meyer, a comparative literature major, was third team CoSIDA Academic All-American as a senior.

MONTREAL – Don Cherry is taking to Twitter to air his objections over the millions in aid money that Canada sends to Haiti.
Tweets posted today on the outspoken hockey commentator's Twitter feed questioned why Ottawa has sent tens of millions of dollars in aid to the earthquake-battered Caribbean nation.
Cherry says he doesn't mind helping other countries — but he wonders why Ottawa would send so much cash to Haiti when people are waiting for up to 10 hours in Canadian hospital waiting rooms.
The controversial star of Hockey Night in Canada was particularly blunt in one tweet: "Are we nuts?"
Cherry's remarks come days after Canada's international co-operation minister told a newspaper that his department will stop funding new aid projects in Haiti until it finds a more effective approach to help the country.
Julian Fantino told Montreal's La Presse he's disappointed about the lack of progress in post-earthquake reconstruction.
He says Ottawa will continue to fund development projects already underway in Haiti.
Cherry says he's pleased Canadians have a good guy with common sense like Fantino in charge.
The broadcaster's tweets come five days before the third anniversary of a massive quake in Haiti that killed an estimated 300,000 people and left more than 1.5 million homeless.

Lutheranism, the branch of Christianity that traces its interpretation of the Christian religion to the teachings of Martin Luther and the 16th-century movements that issued from his reforms. Along with Anglicanism, the Reformed and Presbyterian (Calvinist) churches, Methodism, and the Baptist churches, Lutheranism is one of the five major branches of Protestantism. Unlike the Roman Catholic Church, however, Lutheranism is not a single entity. It is organized in autonomous regional or national churches, such as the Church of Sweden or the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Mecklenburg, Germany. Globally, there are some 140 such Lutheran church bodies; 138 of these are loosely joined in the Lutheran World Federation, which was established in 1947. At the beginning of the 21st century, there were more than 65 million Lutherans worldwide, making Lutheranism the second largest Protestant denomination, after the Baptist churches.
The term Lutheran, which appeared as early as 1519, was coined by Luther's opponents. The self-designation of Luther's followers was "evangelical"—that is, centred on the Gospel. After the Diet of Speyer in 1529, when German rulers sympathetic to Luther's cause voiced a protest against the diet's Catholic majority, which had overturned a decree of 1526, Luther's followers came to be known as Protestants. However, because both evangelical and Protestant proved to be overly broad designations (before long they also included the Reformed churches), eventually the name Evangelical Lutheran became standard. Another name occasionally used is Churches of the Augsburg Confession, which recalls the Lutheran statement of faith presented to the German emperor at the Diet of Augsburg in 1530. In the United States several nomenclatures have been used, all of which, with the exception of the Evangelical Catholic Church, include the term Lutheran in their titles (e.g., the Lutheran Church–Missouri Synod).
In the 16th century, Lutheranism became formally established in various principalities by being declared the official religion of the region by the relevant governmental authority. As early as the 1520s German principalities and cities adopted Lutheranism, and they were later followed by Sweden and the other Scandinavian countries. Later, Lutheran notions found their way to Hungary and Transylvania. Lutheranism arrived in North America in the middle of the 17th century in the areas of present-day Delaware and southern Pennsylvania. In the 18th century and increasingly in the 19th, European and North American Lutherans undertook missions throughout the globe, leading to the establishment of indigenous Lutheran churches in many countries. Beginning in the 20th century, ecumenical initiatives affected both Lutheranism and its relation to other Christian faiths.
Theologically, Lutheranism embraces the standard affirmations of classic Protestantism—the repudiation of papal and ecclesiastical authority in favour of the Bible (sola Scriptura), the rejection of five of the traditional seven sacraments affirmed by the Catholic Church, and the insistence that human reconciliation with God is effected solely by divine grace (sola gratia), which is appropriated solely by faith (sola fide), in contrast to the notion of a convergence of human effort and divine grace in the process of salvation.
German beginnings
In 1517, when Martin Luther probed the church practices surrounding indulgences (the full or partial grant of the remission of the penalties of sin) with his Ninety-five Theses (the various propositions that Luther wished to debate—posted, according to tradition, on the church doors in Wittenberg), he had no intention of breaking from the Catholic Church, assuming that his call for theological and ecclesiastical reform would be heard. Instead, a fierce controversy ensued. Luther and his followers were subsequently excommunicated, which confronted them with the alternative of yielding to the ecclesiastical dictum or finding new ways to live their faith. Since the advocates of reform received the protection of governmental authorities in many places, new forms of church life began to emerge in the late 1520s.
Because they were excommunicated and their churches outlawed, Luther, his followers, and their princely supporters were under threat of military action by Catholic forces, and in 1546 Emperor Charles V felt powerful enough to wage war against the major Lutheran territories and cities. While victorious in the ensuing War of Schmalkald, Charles overreached himself by adding political goals to his objective of dismantling Lutheran reforms. At the Diet of Augsburg in 1555, he was forced to concede formal recognition to the Lutheran churches in the Holy Roman Empire.
The Peace of Augsburg marked an important turning point in the history of Lutheranism. After a generation of struggle against Roman Catholic and imperial authorities, Lutherans gained legal recognition through the establishment of the principle cuius regio, eius religio, which meant that the ruler of a principality determined its religion. From then on, the Lutheran churches in these principalities were free to develop unhindered by political and military threats.
Confessionalization and Orthodoxy
Although their legal existence was assured, the Lutheran churches in Germany nonetheless found themselves in turmoil. A series of theological controversies over the authentic understanding of Luther's thought—some had already erupted during Luther's own lifetime—began to divide Lutheran theologians and churches with increasing intensity. Most of them pertained to topics on which Luther and his Wittenberg colleague Philipp Melanchthon had disagreed or on which Luther's theological views were not altogether clear. Dominating the Lutheran agenda between 1548 and 1577, the disputes concerned how to resolve matters that were neither approved nor strictly forbidden by Scripture, whether the doctrine of faith absolved Christians from following the moral law set out in the Hebrew Scriptures, and matters connected with justification and human participation in salvation.
The two factions involved in these debates were the Philippists, followers of Melanchthon, and the Gnesio-Lutherans (Genuine Lutherans), led by Matthias Flacius Illyricus, a forceful and uncompromising theologian who accused the Philippists of "synergism," the notion that humans cooperated in their salvation. Flacius and the other Gnesio-Lutherans also saw in the Philippists' understanding of the Lord's Supper the influence of Calvinism, which stressed the real but spiritual presence of Christ in the sacrament.
With the aid of theologians Jakob Andreae and Martin Chemnitz, Lutheran political authorities, notably the elector of Saxony, forced compromises on the disputed points of theology. Andreae and Chemnitz prompted a group of Lutheran theologians to draft a document entitled Formula of Concord in 1576 and 1577. Approved by German Lutheran political and religious leaders, it was incorporated, together with several other confessions—the three ancient ecumenical creeds (the Apostles Creed, the Nicene Creed, and the Athanasian Creed), the Augsburg Confession, the Apology of the Augsburg Confession, Luther's tract on papal power, his Schmalkaldic Articles, and his Small and Large Catechisms—into the Book of Concord in 1580.
The Book of Concord embodied the confessional identity of German Lutheranism. It reflected a development that was paralleled in other Christian traditions of the time, each of which jealously guarded its own identity in opposition to other traditions. The particular "Lutheran" identity encompassed not only theology but also liturgy, music, law, and piety. This process of identity formation in the late 16th century is known as confessionalization.
Theological Orthodoxy, which shaped Lutheranism from the late 16th to the late 17th century, has been much maligned as an overly intellectualized Christianity that showed little concern for practical piety. This one-sided perspective (there was much concern for personal piety in orthodoxy) nonetheless demonstrates the importance of the practice among 17th-century Lutheran theologians of defining Christianity in terms of doctrine. Lutheran thinkers utilized categories from Aristotelian philosophy and logic to articulate Christian theology, leading to ever-subtler analyses of argument and counterargument. The tension between reason and revelation, prominent in Luther, was replaced by the insistence on the harmony of the two, with revelation representing the ultimate truth. Dogmatic claims were safeguarded through an emphasis on the divine inspiration of Scripture, a concern that eventually led Lutheran theologians (even as their Reformed counterparts) to formulate the notion of the verbally inerrant Bible, a pivotal point of orthodox theology.

Anonymous Call Girl Author Belle de Jour Outed as 'Slutty Scientist' Costume Incarnate
Showtime's Secret Diary of a Call Girl was based on a series of bestselling books by anonymous prostitute Belle de Jour. How hot is this? Turns out she's a well-regarded British scientist, Dr. Brooke Magnanti. She came out last night.
The actual identity of Belle de Jour was unknown to even her agent up until a week before she came out to the Sunday Times. Having worked at an agency, I can say: that's pretty incredible. I'm not even sure how that works. Did she have a literary agent liaison or something? Most authors would actually like one of those, anonymous or not.
The way the story's told, it sounds like Magnanti, who's "a respected specialist in developmental neurotoxicology and cancer epidemiology in a hospital research group in Bristol," was tired of not getting any credit for doing de Jour's work. She couldn't even go to her own book party. Eegh. Turns out she was working on her PhD and needed money to finish it, so she started turning tricks. She came out to her co-workers about a month ago, her agent about a week ago, and then the Times. Learn to hustle, kids:
When she could no longer afford her rent, she started to think: "What can I do that I can start doing straightaway, that doesn't require a great deal of training or investment to get started, that's cash in hand and that leaves me spare time to do my work in?" She found an escort agency and started her secret life. "I did have another job at one point, as a computer programmer, but I kept up with my other work because it was so much more enjoyable."
Naturally, critics are already incensed. Because where there's an entrepreneur, there's someone damning their cash flow: moral majority, emerge! From their comments:
Has our culture and sense of ethics and self worth really stooped so low that a woman in the 21st Century in the UK - healthy, educated, safe, well-fed, with supportive parents, emergency educational funds and low-interest loans available to her - would instead choose to get the money she wanted by having sex with strangers.
Whatever. I say, take the writing gigs where you can get them. Besides which, there are way more prolific whores in the world of writing when it comes to selling themselves off. See: Penn, Mark. The problem with anonymity is that it holds nobody accountable for the truth. Also, you don't get credit for being awesome. On the other hand, some people might raise objections to Dr. Magnanti's gig working at the Bristol Initiative for Research of Child Health. Like her co-workers, right?
A month ago she revealed her secret to her colleagues at the Bristol Initiative for Research of Child Health, who were "amazingly kind and supportive". She was preparing to tell her parents this weekend.
Nope. Hell, they're probably jealous they didn't think of it first. Her agent's probably ecstatic. Super Awesome Adventures of a Mad Scientist Prostitute has Michael Bay's name written all over it. This gives the entire enterprise a whole new dimension. So what prompted Magnanti to come out? The haters, of course. Specifically, Sunday Times columnist India Knight, who penned the actual coming-out column after dissing on Belle de Jour for making prostitution sound awesome. There're all sorts of juicy anecdotes, like how she's going to be telling here mom sometime today—that'll be fun—and how much she got paid (300 pounds/hour), but my favorite part was this:
She wears little make-up and seems nervous; she is clutching a copy of Paul Auster's latest novel (and later chats to our photographer about the chapter on prostitutes in SuperFreakonomics and to me about Auster's wife, the writer Siri Hustvedt).
Damn. Everyone reads Paul Auster and Freakonomics. Like, everyone. The next time someone calls Steven Leavitt a whore, your can always chime in with the old "takes one to know" insight. In the mean time, secrets and fucking! They still pay well.

Matt Beaulieu was two years old the first time he held Elle McClure in his arms, seventeen when he first kissed her under a sky filled with shooting stars, and thirty-three when he convinced her to marry him. Now in their late 30s, the deeply devoted couple has everything—except the baby they've always wanted.
When an accident leaves Elle brain dead, Matt is devastated. Though he cannot bear the thought of life without her, he knows Elle was afraid of only one thing—a slow death. And so, Matt resolves to take her off life support.
But Matt changes his mind when they discover Elle's pregnant. While there are no certainties, the baby might survive if Elle remains on life support. Matt's mother, Linney, disagrees with his decision. She loves Elle, too, and insists that Elle would never want to be kept alive on machines. Linney is prepared to fight her son in court—armed with Elle's living will.
Divided by the love they share, Matt and Linney will be pitted against each other, fighting for what they believe is right, and what they think Elle would have wanted resulting in a controversial legal battle that will ultimately go beyond one family . . . and one single life.
"A literate and incandescent Nicholas Sparks-like love story complicated by intense moral and ethical questions." ~Kirkus Reviews

13th of December 1981 - Marshal law was imposed in Poland.
…On the 13th of December 1981, to protect the Communist Party and the Secret Police, General Jaruzelski took the Army to the streets. Army tanks crashed the gates of the striking factories, the clashes resulted in deadly casualties, and thousands of "Solidarity" activists were arrested.
We are grateful to the American people and President Reagan for their solidarity during that time.
Millions of Poles, under extremely difficult conditions, took on the struggle to free political prisoners and to reinstate "Solidarity". Those who remained faithful to the ideas and principles embodied by "Solidarity" believed that the results of their struggles would not be wasted. This, in the end, has not happened and, instead, the truth regarding the most recent history of Poland has been kept hidden from Polish society.
As a result, the people do not know why the newly won freedom had to result also in the loss of generations' worth of national property and destruction of the nation's economy….
/from the letter of legendary leader of first "Solidarity" Andrzej Gwiazda/

HANG TIME HEADQUARTERS — Phoenix Suns rookie point guard Kendall Marshall knows that he is inheriting a rich tradition at the position, following in the footsteps of Suns legend and two-time NBA MVP Steve Nash. Let's not forget Phoenix's former point guard stars like Jason Kidd, Penny Hardaway, Kevin Johnson and countless others.
There is a certain amount of pressure that comes with the job in the NBA … and any job in the league. When replacing a player like Nash in a franchise that is clearly in a rebuilding phase, however, the pressure is amplified. But Marshall seems more than comfortable with whatever expectations there are — playing at North Carolina surely aids that cause — and whatever added pressure there will be.
He sat down with Suns.com (P.J. Tucker goes first) and talked about that and more, including the social media mantle he'll have to take up from Nash, the league's resident king of all (social) media:

Oh my what a birthday celebration it was!
I'm thrilled with how my Hello Cupcake penguins turned out! The biggest hassle was trying to find all the components needed for these. I went to no less than 5 different stores looking for plain mini donuts and donut holes. The mini donuts I only found in a multi pack with powdered sugar and cinnamon donuts but I am absolutely convinced that plain (the cakey kind) donut holes do not exist. I ended up using glazed donut holes that were less than round but in the end all came out well.
The other big challenge that I did not know about was that after dipping the penguins into the black frosting they need a long time to set up. Like 6 to 8 hours. I only had 3 hours and the beaks and wings kept drooping and sliding down until I had them in the fridge for a while. Other than that these were actually very easy to make.
I made this penguin pinata based on this one I saw on Pinterest. I'm on Pinterest by the way! Best thing since sliced bread.
I did two layers of paper mache and it was just the perfect hardness for a small group of 3 to 6 year olds.
The birthday boy has been intently playing with his new toys ever since.

2005 Charlie Finch '51 Memorial Fun Runby Tom Runge • August 27, 2005 Share:
The annual Alumni Cross Country Run and Picnic, named in honor of the late Charlie Finch '51, attracted another good turnout as Coach Rob Johnson gave his current team a chance to run the four mile course with several Wabash cross country and track legends.
The quote of the day came from two young Wabash runners. I overheard one of them talking about All-American Roger Busch '96. The first student said: "Look – Busch is serious, he's putting on his cleats." The other student replied, almost in awe: "No one is going to catch him today!"
As you can see from the photos, Roger Busch ran with the current team for awhile before he decided to burn those cleats up with a time of 21:40, almost 30 seconds better than his time last year.
The oldest runner on campus this weekend was George Scharf '42. George ran for Wabash beginning in 1936!
The event concluded with a luncheon at the home of Roselie and Tom Bambrey '68. Tom is Dean of Students and himself a former Wabash varsity runner.

Metro plans to add surveillance cameras to its rail cars for the first time and is spending millions of dollars to triple the number of surveillance cameras monitoring its stations and parking garages.
The transit agency plans to increase the number of security cameras from 1,900 to nearly 6,000, reports The Washington Examiner reports. An agency spokesman says that will cost $6.5 million.
Metro previously announced plans to spend more than $7 million to install cameras on some rail cars and a network to watch live images on those cameras.
Metro spokesman Philip Stewart says there's no question the nation's second-busiest subway system is a target for attacks. He says the transit agency is in the process of deploying a next-generation security system.

Annapurna is releasing Wonder Woman biopic film on Oct 13th, and Annapurna was involved with this so I'm keeping my eye out for a trailer around then
https://twitter.com/cigsandredvines/status/915715671803224064Pretty sure we already knew it was Christmas. Mentioned somewhere in this thread. A nice little tweet to heighten anticipation.
I can't wait for a trailer! My hopes are up for a mid or late October trailer release.P.S. I think the title Phantom Thread is great, and I hope it sticks. I think it's one of the most interesting titles for a film to come along in a while ....
And a strictly rumor-level, totally unconfirmed run time:https://twitter.com/OscarPredictor/status/918236928369201152
A guy who knows nothing says that the running time on Paul Thomas Andersons Phantom Thread has been hovering around 195 minutes, but that efforts are afoot to whittle it down to 165 or thereabouts. (A Focus Features spokesperson says the film and runtime are not yet final, but it will definitely be shorter than that!**) Again, this guy knows nothing hes just confiding what a guy he half-trusts has passed along, and thats all. Not worth depositing. The same guy says that a full-boat trailer for Phantom Thread was recently test-screened or focus-grouped, and that the title given in this trailer was The Phantom Thread, which of course sounds godawful. I cant emphasize how much I hate the unnecessary use of the in any context or capacity. I dont even like the the in the end I prefer finis.

Education Under Attack, 2014
Download Full Report: English
Download Summary: Arabic | English | French | Spanish
Malala Yousafzai, 15, had become well known in the area and a Pakistani Taliban target after daring to speak out against the militants edict banning girls from attending classes and their bombing of schools. Critically wounded by a bullet that tore through her head and shoulder and lodged near her spine, she was rushed by helicopter to a military hospital in Peshawar, along with two wounded school friends. From there, she was taken to England, where she has made a remarkable recovery and now lives.
Hailed by international media and feted by human rights groups for her courage, Malala is today famous around the world. But she is just one of the many thousands of students, teachers, academics and other education personnel in dozens of countries targeted with violence. This global study charts the scale and nature of attacks on education; highlights their impact on education including on students, teachers and facilities; and documents the ways that governments, local communities, non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and UN agencies try to reduce the impact of such violence and prevent future attacks.
In doing so, it provides the most extensive documentation of attacks on education to date.
Following earlier studies that UNESCO published in 2007 and 2010, it not only examines attacks on schools, as previous research has done, but also considers military use of education facilities and more closely examines attacks on higher education.
The studys four main aims are to: better inform international and national efforts to prevent schools, universities, students, teachers, academics and other education staff from being attacked; encourage the investigation, prosecution and punishment of the perpetrators of attacks; share knowledge about effective responses; and help those who have been attacked to recover and rebuild their lives as Malala is doing by providing recommendations for action that the international community, governments and armed non-state groups should adopt and implement.

Act IĀTheĀRoyal Palace at Memphis; Egypt and Ethiopia are at war. Radames and Ramfis enter. They discuss theĀrumour that theĀEthiopians are planning aĀnew attack and Ramfis discloses that theĀpriesthood has consulted theĀgoddess Isis as to who should lead EgyptÆs forces. He looks meaningfully at Radames, but names no-one. Alone, Radames muses on forthcoming glory and theĀchance that it may enable him to marry Aida, aĀbeautiful Ethiopian slave girl. Amneris enters and asks about his evident happiness. She hints at aĀloved one inĀMemphis and he looks away. She is consumed by jealousy because she loves Radames herself. Aida enters and Amneris feigns kindness to her, while noticing that Aida and Radames cannot look at one another.ĀTheĀPharaoh enters with theĀcourt. A messenger brings news of theĀEthiopiansÆ coming attack, led by King Amonasro who, unknown to everyone, is AidaÆs father. There is aĀcall for war. Radames is named general and given theĀstandard by Amneris. TheĀbattle hymn concludes and theĀcourt departs. Aida is left alone inĀconfusion, unable to pray for RadamesÆ victory, yet, inĀher love for him, wishing his safe return.ĀAt theĀTemple of Vulcan aĀritual is inĀprogress. Radames is led inĀby Ramfis and consecrated with his weapons at theĀhigh altar. Both invoke theĀblessing of theĀgod Ptah for theĀcampaign.
Act IIĀInĀher apartments, Amneris awaiting theĀreturn of Radames, theĀman she loves and who has been victorious, and is entertained by dancers. Aida comes inĀwith AmnerisÆ crown. Feigning kindness once again, Amneris hints that she knows Aida is inĀlove with an Egyptian. She then casually mentions that Radames has been killed and AidaÆs outburst reveals to her theĀtruth. Admitting that she lied, Amneris cruelly threatens Aida whoĀ¢ after aĀmomentÆs defianceĀ¢ vainly begs for forgiveness. Outside, theĀsound of theĀreturning warriors is heard.ĀInĀThebes, theĀPharaoh, Amneris, priests and courtiers await theĀarrival of Radames and his victorious army. At theĀend of aĀlong procession Radames enters and is crowned victor by Amneris while theĀPharaoh proclaims him theĀcountryÆs saviour. Asked to name aĀfavour, Radames requests theĀEthiopian slaves be brought in. Aida recognises her father, but Amonasro whispers to her not to betray his true identity. To theĀPharaoh he describes how he and his comrades fought valiantly but how their King was killed inĀbattle. He pleads for mercy and Radames asks that theĀcaptured Ethiopians be set free. Ramfis opposes him, but eventually consents so long as theĀōspokesmanö is kept under custody. TheĀPharaoh agrees, and then promises Radames theĀhand of his daughter inĀmarriage. Radames will reign after him. Only Radames and Aida privately voice sorrow at theĀroyal decree.
Act IIIĀAt night on theĀbanks of theĀNile theĀsounds of chanting can be heard coming from theĀTemple of Isis. Amneris arrives with Ramfis to spend time before her wedding inĀprayer and they go into theĀTemple. Aida enters to meet Radames inĀsecret. As she cannot be his, she thinks of drowning herself inĀtheĀNile. But Amonasro appears having eluded his guard, and tells Aida that she must help her country inĀaĀnew uprising. She must find out from Radames theĀroute theĀEgyptian army plans to take against them. At first she refuses but, eventually worn down by her father, she agrees. Amonasro hides as Radames enters, believing that if he is successful inĀbattle aĀsecond time theĀPharaoh will not oppose their marriage. Aida tells him that their only fortune together is inĀflight to her homeland. Eventually he yields to her, and she casually asks which route theĀarmy will take to Ethiopia. As he tells her, Amonasro steps out of theĀshadows, and Radames is horrified to see what he has done. Both Amonasro and Aida try to persuade him to come with them, but Amneris comes out of theĀTemple followed by Ramfis. Amonasro tries to stab Amneris but Radames protects her. As Aida and Amonasro escape Radames surrenders to theĀguards Ramfis has called.
Act IVĀInĀaĀhall inĀtheĀPalace, above theĀunderground Chamber of Justice, Amneris waits alone, torn between her love and aĀdesire for vengeance. She sends for Radames and offers to secure aĀroyal pardon if he will give up Aida, who has made good her escape. Radames refuses and Amneris sends him to his trial. Alone again she hears theĀcharges against him read out and then theĀsentence of death. As Radames is led up she curses theĀpriestsÆ cruelty.ĀInĀtheĀTemple tomb inĀwhich Radames has been sentenced to aĀlive burial he awaits death. TheĀlast stone has been put inĀplace when he hears aĀnoise beside him. It is Aida who has stolen into theĀtomb to die with him. They bid each other farewell while above, inĀtheĀTemple, priestesses chant and Amneris prays to Isis that RadamesÆ soul may rest inĀpeace.

Shore fisherman are particularly perturbed by a post-Sandy project's plans to cut off access to rock jetties sticking out into the surf. A fisherman is shown in this file photo.
(Star-Ledger file photo)
ASBURY PARK — Not everyone is happy that a massive project is underway to restore the Jersey shore's beaches after Hurricane Sandy.
With the second summer after the storm approaching, fishing groups say the project is wrecking prime fishing spots by smothering parts of rock jetties with sand, destroying a unique angling opportunity that draws thousands of people to the state's shoreline each year.
And they're particularly perturbed by plans to cut off access to rock jetties sticking out into the surf. That work, called notching, is designed to ensure the uniform flow of sand along newly replenished beaches and cut down on erosion, but the anglers say the jetties are irreplaceable spots to catch fish, particularly in communities that limit public beach access.
They want the federal government to find a way to widen the beaches without covering and notching the jetties.
"These jetties, once they're gone, they're gone forever," said Greg Hueth of the Shark River Surf Anglers, one of many groups agitating against the beach project. "What they're doing is filling in all these areas with sand and destroying some of the best fishing areas. Every fish spawns in that area — flounder, lobsters, bluefish, everything. They're going to fill it all in and smother it to death."
Dan Russo, who fishes in the Asbury Park area, said the nooks and crannies of the rock jetties provide habitat akin to coral reefs for many species of fish. Chris Hueth, another fisherman, says there's a spot in Allenhurst, near Asbury Park, where a jetty was buried in sand by the repair project, wiping out what was a productive breeding ground and fishing spot.
"There's nothing there now," he said. "It's all gone."
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is in the midst of a massive project to restore New Jersey's coastline to a condition better than it was before Sandy hit in October 2012. From Maryland to New Hampshire, the storm was blamed for 159 deaths, and New Jersey and New York alone claimed a total of nearly $79 billion in damage.
The project's stated purpose is to protect lives and property, but it also has the effect of maintaining one of New Jersey's most popular tourism attractions: its 127 miles of beaches. Christopher Gardner, a spokesman for the Army Corps, said the agency has heard fishermen's concerns and will look for potential changes to the project to address those while still ensuring the project works as designed. He also said the impact on fishing areas will be temporary.
"While some habitats and the species in them will be temporarily impacted by the construction of the project, most of the marine life will re-colonize nearby after construction activities are completed and marine populations impacted will return to normal levels over time," Gardner said.
The project involves pumping huge quantities of sand from offshore onto the beaches, which are being widened to 150 to 200 feet.
The notching of the jetties involves removing rocks from where the jetty meets the edge of the beach, creating a flow of water between the beach and the jetty. It's intended to help sand flow along the newly replenished beaches and keep them relatively uniform.
That's something that has long been accepted by coastal scientists as a benefit to the coastal ecosystem, said Tim Dillingham, director of the American Littoral Society. By lessening erosion, notching the jetties should extend the life of the new beaches, making them need to be replenished less frequently. But in this case, there's a unique concern: the tendency of several communities along the Jersey shore to limit public access to the beaches through a variety of tactics, including private ownership of part of the beach and severe restrictions on parking nearby.
"Because this is such a unique place, maybe it's in the best interests to keep the jetties as they are and maybe do the beach maintenance on a more regular basis," Dillingham said.
Joe Pallotto, president of the Asbury Park Fishing Club, said the anglers would accept a compromise in which the beach work could proceed if fishermen retained access to the jetties.
"This is something we've been able to do for decades, and now they're just coming in and taking it away," he said.

A long-time fan of Ralph Steadman, I still encounter works of his that have somehow missed my radar. Published in 1995, a special edition of George Orwell's "Animal Farm" (currently out of print) features 100 full-color and half-tone illustrations by the artist. Maria Popova over at Brain Pickings was able to find a copy of this rare edition, citing quotations from Orwell's "The Freedom of the Press," the proposed but unpublished preface to the original "Animal Farm" that accompanies Steadman's raw and gritty illustrations.
Steadman has long been known as a Gonzo artist, a reputation due in large part to his long partnership with Hunter S. Thompson, but has also illustrated other books in his signature inkblot style including, "Alice in Wonderland," "Treasure Island," and most recently, "Fahrenheit 451," in addition to drawing everything from political caricatures to wine and beer labels. NPR notes that he's even written an opera libretto.
Of his fluid style, Steadman says, "You don't pencil in anything; you just start going and see where it leads you. It's an adventure, a little journey. Every drawing is a kind of journey. There's an organic quality that is quite potent, you know. You surprise yourself, and that's quite nice."
A documentary about Steadman narrated by Johnny Depp, titled "For No Good Reason," is set to release later this year. The film's director, Charlie Paul, says, "I was concerned that Ralph's art would be the man and that I'd end up trying to make a film with someone who had this kind of aggressive attitude towards the world. But Ralph is such a lovely, warm and generous man, and yet he goes to his table and creates these pieces of art which are dangerous and, to be perfectly honest, quite upsetting sometimes."

CLEVELAND (AP) ? A mentally disabled mother authorities said was enslaved for two years along with her daughter spent time in jail this year after pleading guilty to beating the girl, but her attorney told a judge that her captors forced her to do it.
CLEVELAND (AP) ? A mentally disabled mother authorities said was enslaved for two years along with her daughter spent time in jail this year after pleading guilty to beating the girl, but her attorney told a judge that her captors forced her to do it.
Court records show that a child endangering complaint was filed against the woman in October 2012 just a day after she was charged with shoplifting and asked to be jailed because three people had been mean to her.
A forced labor charge was unsealed Thursday against a fourth suspect, Dezerah Silsby, after Silbsy surrendered to authorities. It wasn't clear whether she had an attorney, and her case was not yet listed in online records late Wednesday.
Beginning in early 2011, the suspects forced the mother to cooperate with them by threats and physical abuse, federal prosecutors said. The woman told authorities she was forced to do housework by the suspects, who she said raided her bank account and menaced her with snakes and pit bulls.
The woman and her daughter were freed in October after police investigated an abuse allegation one of the suspects made against her.
Police checking into her "mean" claim went to an apartment after one of the suspects said it was the woman who was abusive. Authorities said the allegation was a ruse complete with a video staged by the suspects. They said the suspects had forced the woman to act as if she were mistreating her child.
The woman later pleaded guilty to child endangering and was sentenced to 150 days in jail in February. She served only part of that sentence.
Her attorney told a judge during sentencing that two of the suspects encouraged the woman to abuse the child and threatened to go to police if she didn't comply, the Ashland Times-Gazette reported last winter.
"It's unlikely that, on her own, she would have done these horrible things to that child," attorney Michael Sullivan said.
He said that the woman was responsible for harming the child, but that it could have been worse if she had not complied, the newspaper reported.
Messages seeking comment were left Wednesday with Sullivan.
Authorities announced federal charges Tuesday against the three people the woman lived with in Ashland, about 65 miles southwest of Cleveland.
Jordie Callahan, 26, Jessica Hunt, 31, and Daniel J. "DJ" Brown, 33, were charged with forced labor. Callahan also was charged with tampering with a witness in the investigation.
A federal court lawyer for Callahan declined to comment. A second defense attorney, Ed Bryan, said Hunt will plead not guilty and said there are credibility issues with the mother. There was no immediate response to phone and email messages left for the attorney representing Brown.
The first suspect to have an initial court appearance will be Silsby, on Thursday. An FBI affidavit says Silsby admitted she helped retrieve the alleged victims from their relative's house and once smashed the woman's hand with a rock so the woman could go to a hospital and bring back pain medication for the suspects.
Public records show Callahan was convicted of raping an 11-year-old when he was 15. Callahan claimed that the encounter was consensual and that the girl was the aggressor. An appeals court overruled that argument.
An attorney for one of the suspects and the alleged captor's mother said the mentally disabled woman was given a place to stay because she and her young daughter had no home.
Andrew Hyde, who represented Callahan on related state kidnapping charges that were dismissed Tuesday as the federal case was announced, said the woman moved in and out as she pleased.
"She was never forced to do anything. She used this story to get out of trouble she was in" with regard to a child-abuse allegation, Hyde said.
Callahan's mother, Becky Callahan, of Ashland, said that the allegations were "all lies." She said that the alleged victim was friends with her son and Hunt, her son's girlfriend, and that they tried to help the woman out by offering her a place to live.
Hyde said county social service workers placed the child with her mother when the woman was living with the three suspects.
Cassandra Holtzmann, director of Ashland County Job and Family Services, declined to comment Wednesday, saying she has been advised she is not permitted to discuss a pending criminal matter.
She called it "a very serious and tragic situation." In a statement, she said: "Please understand that while we are extremely concerned, this is not our investigation and we do not want to jeopardize law enforcement's investigation."

Can you describe or show how the book will look like? what kind of cover and stuff?
Will the finished product feature chapter art?
it's kinda a blind investment at this point so yeah.
I had these very same questions…mainly the cover lol I very much got into my head the idea of collecting every color of book
Most of those questions can be answered in the FAQ, or by going to the second page where I answered Appledan.
The books will have the same dark green cover with silver stamping. The stylized FO:E logo will be the same as the first printing. The spine stamping has been slightly redesigned to better suit the current formatting.

HANG TIME HEADQUARTERS — For those who truly love the reality TV drama of the NBA playoffs, this is what we pay and hope for every year. Elimination time, 48 minutes with everything on the line plus seasons (and sometimes careers) hanging in the balance.
We get four of them tonight, four Game 6 matchups (two in the Western Conference and two more in the East) and potentially four teams going fishing.
The posturing is over. Wear black if you want to (New York Knicks), but if you're not careful and don't treat Game 6 with the urgency required, the funeral you'll be attending might be your own (if the Boston Celtics are able to force a Game 7, that will put pressure on the Knicks that could shake the very walls of Madison Square Garden).
The Celtics, Atlanta Hawks, Houston Rockets and Los Angeles Clippers are all facing a win-or-go-home circumstance in their respective Games 6 battles tonight. Each one of them trails 3-2 and each one of them will have some serious thinking to do in the aftermath of defeats.
That said, the Knicks, Indiana Pacers, Oklahoma City Thunder and Memphis Grizzlies do not want to let this opportunity to end things slip away. A Game 7, be it at home or on the road, comes with an increased level of intensity that can make anyone crack.
So we're going game-by-game and detailing exactly what is on the line tonight for the winner and loser of these games:
KNICKS AT CELTICS, 7 p.m. ET, ESPN
What's on the line for the Knicks: Everything! An entire season comes down to whether or not they can survive their own foolishness. Suddenly the Knicks aren't in a playful mood. Too bad they didn't adopt that philosophy before Game 5, when they had a chance to end this series on their home floor. Kenyon Martin and J.R. Smith have to redeem themselves for their words and actions before and during that Game 5 disaster. Carmelo Anthony, on the other hand, needs simply to return to the MVP form he showed down the stretch of the regular season and early on in this series. Just 21 assists in two games is not the sort of ball movement that led the Knicks to that 3-0 series lead. They either find a way to fix that or face the possibility of a Game 7 at home, which sounds like a good thing … until you remember that the Celtics would welcome another opportunity to silence Spike Lee and the rest of the Knicks faithful at the Garden.
What's on the line for the Celtics: An era! The Big 3 era ended last season when Ray Allen bolted for Miami. But that was the ceremonial end. The official end comes when this team sees its season finished. No one knows what Danny Ainge has in store for this group when it's all over. Celtics coach Doc Rivers is a master at preparing his team for big games, but the Knicks did much of the work for him this time by calling out the Celtics. That's usually all the incentive Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett need to get their fires raging. They responded like the true (and aging) warriors that they are. And they'll bring a Game 7 zeal to Game 6 and dare the Knicks to match their effort before a home crowd that should be in a full lather by lunch time. While the Knicks have focused their attention elsewhere, Jeff Green has gone about destroying them in the past two games. The Celtics' supporting cast will be the difference if this series goes to a Game 7.
PACERS AT HAWKS, 7 p.m. ET, ESPN2
What's on the line for the Pacers: Legitimacy! The Pacers fancy themselves as championship contenders this season. And they are serious about it. Problem is, their performance on the road in this series suggests otherwise. If they can't handle an inconsistent bunch like the Hawks on the road, what exactly can coach Frank Vogel's crew do against either the Knicks or Celtics in the conference semifinals? Paul George and David West have designs on leading the Pacers deep into the playoffs, but they better finish this series off first without having to host a Game 7 in the first round. A little help from Roy Hibbert would help. Vogel keeps talking about his team still being young and needing to learn some things along the way. Learning how to survive a mess of your own making with a Game 7 against an inferior foe can't be what he had in mind.
What's on the line for the Hawks: The (immediate) future! It's no secret that the organization is pointing to this summer, and free agency, as their salvation. Any noise the Hawks made in this postseason was strictly for the men in uniform and on the sideline (most of them are playing out the final years of their respective deals). A sustained postseason run is just more advertising, sometimes good and sometimes not so good, for coach Larry Drew and stars Josh Smith, Jeff Teague, Devin Harris, Kyle Korver and others. The fitting way to end their six-year run of consecutive playoff appearances is to go out the same way they did in that first-round series against the Celtics in 2008, losing in a Game 7 in Boston. There is more respect earned going down like that than there is in going down on your home floor in Game 6.
THUNDER AT ROCKETS, 9:30 p.m. ET, ESPN
What's on the line for the Thunder: Kevin Durant's sanity! The Thunder star won't have to worry about being second anymore, he'll have to worry about being first — as in a first-round casualty without his oft-maligned running mate Russell Westbrook. We've all wondered what the Thunder would look like without Westbrook in the lineup and taking away shots from Durant. Well, now we know. And it's not nearly as pretty as some expected it to be. Love him or hate him, Westbrook is a mercurial talent and the player who balances things for the Thunder. Save for the 10 turnovers in the past two games, Durant has been everything you'd want him to be under these circumstances. But the Thunder need more from the rest of the supporting cast. It's time for Serge Ibaka, Kendrick Perkins, Kevin Martin, Thabo Sefolosha, Reggie Jackson and the boys to do their part.
What's on the line for the Rockets: Dwight Howard? Seriously! You know the big fella is watching and weighing his options. A Rockets team capable of knocking off the Thunder in the playoffs is going to be an appealing option for the hottest free agent on the market this summer. The Rockets already have another superstar to help shoulder the burden of leading the franchise into the upper echelon of the Western Conference in James Harden. A Harden-Howard, or Howard-Harden (for ego's sake) combination would be pretty formidable in the years to come, especially with the inevitable power shift that is looming (the Golden State Warriors want in on the insurgency, too). The Rockets' pursuit of Howard gets a huge boost with the threat of an upset of the Thunder. Were they to actually pull it off … well, don't get Rockets GM Daryl Morey excited.
L.A. CLIPPERS AT GRIZZLIES, 9:30 p.m. ET, ESPN2
What's on the line for the Clippers: Vinny Del Negro's job and the Chris Paul era! My main man Clipper Darrell was predicting a full-blown takeover of Los Angeles and its basketball constituency this postseason. But a twist of Blake Griffin's ankle and some vicious blows from the rugged Grizzlies has placed Del Negro's job security and the Clippers' hold on Paul in serious jeopardy. Phil Jackson is just working as an adviser in the Detroit Pistons' coaching search. So he's still going to be available if the Clippers feel the need to pursue his services. And Paul will have plenty of free agent options this summer. If he can't get out of the first round with the Clippers, he might be forced to look elsewhere for the championship opportunity that has eluded him to this point. This is a must-win game for the Clippers in many ways.
What's on the line for the Grizzlies: Their championship window! Things couldn't have lined up any better for the Grizzlies with Westbrook's injury and the way they've played against the Clippers. They'd go into the conference semifinals favored to knock off the top-seeded Thunder, provided they make it past the Rockets. They'd also have favorable matchups against whoever they faced in the conference finals, too, given the way Zach Randolph and Marc Gasol are playing right now. You could make a solid case that the Grizzlies boast the most complete (and healthiest) team remaining in the Western Conference playoff field. The chance to supplant the Thunder as the flag bearer for small market teams would be a side benefit for the Grizzlies, who might not have a championship window like this to take advantage of again in the future.

Announcing Galleries and Albums
Greetings Capture Cincinnati folks! We are excited to announce two new features we've been working on the past couple months: galleries and albums. Give us just a few moments to explain the basics of both features...
Galleries | A gallery is a showcase of amazing photography of the Cincinnati area curated by a Capture Cincinnati user or group of users. The idea is to present a beautiful display of photography for all to enjoy! Galleries can feature broad topics or narrow topics, or focus on an event, a place... the options are virtually limitless. Galleries display large photos from many different users in an artistic way.
The key principle for galleries is curation. Galleries are hand crafted by users to showcase something amazing, and can be added to at any time. Curators can also add their commentary with each photo to make a gallery even more engaging. A gallery is more than just a display of photos... it's a living art piece created and curated by users with a ton of care.
You can share galleries with your friends and family via email, Facebook, Twitter, Google Plus and Pinterest, so others can enjoy the beautiful display of Capture Cincinnati photography. Soon you'll be able to comment on galleries as well!
Check out some popular galleries, learn how to create a new gallery or read the full details on galleries.
Albums | An album is a way to group your photos on your public profile in a way that you want to show the world. The default view of your photos on your public profile page is ordered by most recently submitted. Creating albums give you full control to group similar photos and showcase them in style! You can order photos within albums however you want! Create an album for all of your flower photos, or your sunsets, or perhaps you're working on a photo essay that would work well in an album. Create as many albums as you'd like and showcase them on your profile page.
You can share your albums with your friends and family so folks can find your collections of photos easily.
Learn how to create an album or jump in and create an album now.
As a part of this update we also beefed up the search page, added gallery notification emails and activity items on your dashboard and refined a bunch of smaller things. We hope you enjoy albums and we would love to see some great galleries on Capture Cincinnati soon, so jump in and get started!

Many teams will be using the preseason finale as a chance to evaluate players on lower rungs of the depth chart in order to set the back end of their rosters, but the Giants are taking a different approach.
The starting offense will play roughly 12-15 plays against the Patriots even though they unit has already lost wide receiver Victor Cruz and two offensive linemen to injuries this summer. Coach Tom Coughlin said he's looking for "some execution, some performance" from his starters after watching them score two touchdowns, one of which came on an 84-yard run by David Wilson in an otherwise lacking outing against the Jets, in the first three preseason games.
Running back Andre Brown is even more direct when it comes to the goals for the brief outing by the starting offense.
"Those 12-15 plays gotta be crisp and on point," Brown said, via Ebenezer Samuel of the New York Daily News. "We've got to produce a score at the end of it. Whatever it is, however we punch it in, we've just gotta make sure we're crisp."
Assuming Cruz, Eli Manning and Hakeem Nicks are healthy, chances are that the Giants offense is going to be just fine come the regular season. Getting them to end preseason with a head of steam can't hurt, unless, of course, one of the player they're counting on this season winds up with the trainers on Thursday night.

HANG TIME SOUTHWEST — California's basketball hierarchy is on its head.
As the second round is set to begin, in is the All-Star-snubbed Stephen Curry of the Golden State Warriors; out are the two biggest superstars set to hit the free-agent market: Dwight Howard of the Los Angeles Lakers and Chris Paul of the Los Angeles Clippers.
In strange symmetry, Howard and Paul were both ejected in their final games of the season. Howard twice lost his cool and got the heave-ho early in the third quarter of the Kobe-less and totally injury-depleted Lakers' Game 4 loss to the San Antonio Spurs. Referee Joey Crawford gave Paul a more controversial walk to the showers late in the fourth quarter of Friday's Game 6 downer at the Memphis Grizzlies, the Clippers' fourth consecutive defeat after taking a 2-0 series lead.
Both superstars will become free agents on July 1. While the smart money still says D12 and CP3 love L.A. and will stay, unceremonious endings to what were supposed to be storybook seasons for both franchises at least adds a layer of intrigue and speculation to the proceedings.
For the Clippers, 118-105 losers Friday, suddenly the celebrations of a franchise-best 56-win season and a first-ever Pacific Division title are being washed away by a tidal wave of disappointment and tough offseason decisions headlined by Paul's choice of where next to take his talents.
"I got a lot of time to think about that," Paul, wearing a Clipper red sports coat, told reporters after Friday's game. "As I do with any decision I make, I consult with my wife, my parents, my brother, my family. I might even let little Chris chime in on this. We'll see what happens."
L.A.'s front office will wait on pins and needles for July 1 to get Paul's answer, but they will likely move much quicker to determine the future of lame-duck coach Vinny Del Negro. When management assesses the job he's done in leading the Clippers to the playoffs in consecutive seasons for just the second time in the franchise's 29 years in L.A. and first time in 20 years, there will be two sides of the coin to each topic of debate.
Since being hired to lead Chicago with no previous coaching experience, Del Negro has been scrutinized, even ridiculed, like no other coach regarding his acumen of the X's and O's.
In this series, Del Negro's team allowed a 2-0 lead to slip away. But how much of that is on the coach and how much is on a team that seemed to get outworked in the final four games? Did the coach not have his team prepared or did the players not show up? Did the coach fail to make proper adjustments or did the players fail to execute?
Paul averaged 22.8 points and 6.3 assists. He shot 53.3 percent and rarely turned the ball over. He didn't get a lot of help from what was considered to be the deepest team in basketball. His All-Star teammate Blake Griffin sprained an ankle and played 24 minutes in the final two games. He finished the series with a well-below-average 13.2 ppg and 5.5 rpg while nemesis Zach Randolph dominated in the final four games.
Veteran point guard Chauncey Billups, who missed most of the season due to injury, played as if his head wasn't in it, finishing the series with more turnovers (eight) than assists (six). After going 4-for-8 from the floor in Game 1, he went 7-for-28 the rest of the way.
Sixth Man of the Year runner-up Jamal Crawford was 7-for-21 in Games 3 and 4 and was benched in the second half of Game 6 after going 0-for-5. Matt Barnes, who threw in 30 points Friday night, was 9-for-24 in Games 2 through 5.
Caron Butler averaged 5.8 ppg in Games 2 through 5 and scored five points in 34 minutes of Games 4 and 5. Del Negro ripped center DeAndre Jordan's effort. Grant Hill, either injured or buried on the bench this season, was on the floor in the second half of Game 6.
The Clippers could look quite different next season. They have $45 million tied into Griffin, Jordan, Butler, Crawford, Hill and Eric Bledsoe. Two million could get returned if Hill retires as he speculated he might last month.
So let the introspection begin for a franchise that has scrapped bottom for decades and seemed to be headed for better days, if not glory days. Owner Donald Sterling in his later years has seemed to soften and to smartly open his wallet to make things happen. It's resulted in two sensational seasons that have produced regular-season results like never before, two rare trips to the postseason while also rousing a fan base and creating a fun environment at Staples Center.
Yet the Clippers failed to accomplish Del Negro's goal and that was go deeper in the playoffs that last season's second-round sweep at the hands of the Spurs when Griffin was again hurt and unable to perform at a peak level.
So while Curry and the Warriors keep doing their thing, the mood is considerably darker today down in L.A.

What to Expect at SC12
In the run up to next week's SC12 show, a number of companies are announcing big plans that, taken together, should result in even faster computers for science and research projects. All of these are part of the high-performance computing (HPC) market.
Last week, the Titan supercomputer was unveiled at the U.S. Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL). The system is claimed to be able to run at more than 20 petaflops (20,000 trillion floating point operations per second) and is based on a Cray XK7 system with 18,688 nodes, each containing a 16-core AMD Opteron 6274 and an Nvidia Tesla K20 graphics processing unit (GPU) accelerator. Oak Ridge says this system is slated to be used for research into areas such as alternative energy and energy efficiency, materials science, and climate projections.
ORNL and Nvidia have both talked about how combining CPU and GPU cores together can improve both performance and performance per watt. Sumit Gupta, general manager for Tesla at Nvidia, says Titan takes up about the same amount of space as the previous generation Jaguar system based on 6-core Opteron chips—roughly the size of a basketball court. It provides 10 times the processing capability, however, while consuming about the same amount of energy (actually 9 megawatts vs. 7 megawatts). Nvidia has been particularly pushing the energy efficiency of GPU computing.
Nvidia is expected to disclose the exact specifications of the Tesla K20 GPU next week, but has been clear that it has been built on the 28nm Kepler architecture used in its most recent generation of graphics chips.
As part of the Titan announcement, the DOE also announced that it is planning to award 4.7 billion supercomputing core hours from ORNL and the Argonne National Laboratory to 61 science and engineering projects as part of its Innovative and Novel Computational Impact on Theory and Experiment (INCITE) program. Argonne has Mira, a 10-petaflop supercomputer based on an IBM Blue Gene/Q system with 49,152 compute nodes.
Intel has scheduled a press conference with Dell, HP, and IBM, which will likely include the formal announcement of its Xeon Phi co-processor. As we learned from details at the Hot Chips show a few months ago, Xeon Phi, known as Knights Corner, is designed to be used as a coprocessor with the company's more traditional Xeon server chips, initially connected over a PCI Express bus. This is the first instance of Intel's Many Integrated Core (MIC) family designed for highly-parallel workloads, and Intel has emphasized how the chip is designed to run the same basic software and use the same tools as other Intel x86 processors, though with some optimizations.
From discussions at the Intel Developer Forum in September, we already know it is being used at the Stampede Project at the Texas Advanced Computing Center (TACC). Intel and TACC have said the first system will deliver 10 petaflops of computing power using Xeon E5 processors and Xeon Phi coprocessors. The goal is for Stampede, which is being built by Dell and Intel and funded by the National Science Foundation, to be one of the top five supercomputers by next year. It is designed to be used for applications such as hurricane prediction, turbulence simulation for more efficient planes and cars, and simulation of molecules for medical weather research.
Intel has said that Xeon Phi includes more than 50 lightweight multi-threaded x86 cores, as well as a 512-bit wide Vector Processing Unit (VPU), but I expect at SC12, we'll learn more details including the actual number of cores and some real performance claims. In addition, the presence of Dell, HP, and IBM at the announcement may well indicate a push to use these chips beyond the traditional HPC market.
All this should set up a more direct competition between Intel and Nvidia in the HPC market, with Intel talking about how the Xeon Phi requires less reprograming, and Nvidia talking about the raw performance and performance/watt features of the Tesla line. Gupta said that ORNL has greatly invested in GPU computing, making applications more parallel using both the OpenACC tools for compilers and using Nvidia's CUDA programming on areas requiring particular speedup. (He also said Nvidia had an advantage because the basic architecture is also used in graphics, saying "Xeon Phi doesn't have a day job." Intel will obviously stress compatibility.)
Looking forward, Cray today launched its X30 supercomputer, known as Cascade, based around Intel Xeon processors and using the new high-speed Aries interconnect fabric (which Cray created but recently sold to Intel). This system will initially use the Xeon E5-2600 product family and the company says, using these processors, the systems can scale in excess of one million cores. Additionally, future versions will be available with Intel Xeon Phi coprocessors and with Nvidia Tesla GPUs and Cray says the system is designed to scale to allowing HPC workloads of more than 100 petaflops.
Early systems are shipping now (real availability is slated for next quarter), with several announced customers including supercomputer centers in Switzerland, Australia, Finland, Japan, and Germany as well as DOE's National Energy Research Scientific Computing Center (NERSC) in Berkeley, California. The X30 is partially funded through Cray's participation in the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency's (DARPA) High Productivity Computing Systems program.
At the show, we'll see the release of the next version of the top 500 list of the world's fastest supercomputers. In the previous version, the Sequoia system at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory powered by the IBM Blue Gene/Q architecture topped the list, followed by the Japanese K system based on Fujitsu Sparc chips. This year, ORNL's Titan is expected to top the list.
Many of the sessions at SC12 are focused on so-called "Exascale" computing, when supercomputers can get to 1 exaflops per second (roughly 1,000 petaflops). A number of organizations are competing to get there, including all the big chip vendors (notably IBM, Intel, and Nvidia), a variety of super computer centers, and even governments. For instance, researchers in China are now working on a system called Tianhe-2, which they say will hit 100 petaflops by 2015. It's unclear whether that system will use Chinese processors or ones from Western companies. (Cray's solution sounds like a competitor.)
We're likely to hear a lot more about areas such as interconnects, fabrics and I/O bandwidth, with technologies such as InfiniBand, Cray's Aries, and AMD's FreedomFabric. We can also expect to learn details about progress in parallel software such as OpenACC (hints for compilers) and the OpenCL programming framework.
I'm not able to attend, but will be watching what goes on.
