Origin: [See Hamper to shackle.]
A hamper is a primarily British term for a wicker basket, usually large, that is used for the transport of items, often food. In North America, the term generally refers to a household receptacle for clean or dirty clothing, regardless of its composition, i.e. "a laundry hamper". In agricultural use, a hamper is a wide-mouthed container of basketwork that may often be carried on the back during the harvesting of fruit or vegetables by hand by workers in the field. The contents of the hamper may be decanted regularly into larger containers or a cart, wagon, or truck. The open ventilation and the sturdiness offered by a hamper has made it suitable for the transport of food, hence the use of the picnic hamper. At one time it was common for laundry services to leave a large basketwork container with a lid which is now commonly referred to as a clothes hamper. The same type of container would be used to return clean clothing, which would be put away by the laundry service and the empty container left in place of the full container for later pickup. This type of daily or bi-daily hamper service was most common with Chinese laundry services in 19th century England and America.

ham′pėr, n. a large basket for conveying goods.—v.t. to put in a hamper.—ns. Han′ap, a large drinking-cup; Han′aper, an old name for a receptacle for treasure, paper, &c., long the name of an office in the Court of Chancery. [For hanaper—O.

In this week's MLS Soccer March to the Match podcast, the extraordinary amount of shot opportunities for Sporting KC was referenced.
Cauldron favorite and midfielder Graham Zusi in particular is on a pace for almost 100 shots taken this season.
As a midfielder this is nothing short of outstanding. To our knowledge, a "true" midfielder has never led the league or come close to leading the league in shots.
That's almost three shots per game.
It sounds pedestrian, but when you consider that his teammate Kei Kamara already has 28 (over 6 per game), in combination, it's mesmerizing. (Note: CJ Sapong is in the top 20 in shots also!)
Now, shot volume is nothing new for Sporting KC. They led the league last year in shots taken with an average of almost 14.5 per game.
They're on pace to straight obliterate that this year, with 688 or over 20 per game!
Again astounding and it deserves more press*. (*We will discuss a few negatives at the end of the piece as well.)
But the question is, what changed for Sporting KC this year to increase the shot count?
Beyond being on-form, how were they able to ratchet up the amount of shots per game.
And the answer lies in three tweaks to Peter Vermes system this year. And let's just say–in a nod to Jonah Freedman who commented this week–it's not your traditional 4-3-3. In fact, it's really more of 3-2-3-2 in the attack with Chance Myers playing extremely high up the pitch. (That 3-2-3-2 is Sinovic-Besler-Collin, Espinosa-Cesar, Convey-Zusi-[FB – typically Myers], Sapong-Kamara).
• CJ Sapong fills the "right" role
Sporting KC selected Teal Bunbury as its hold-up player in Game One of the season in DC United, whether by design or because they want to keep Sapong fresh with Bunbury going on US Soccer duty.
The chart above shows Bunbury's distribution.
It's a bit over the map, with a lot of hold up particularly on the left flank.
Now contrast this with Sapong's most recent work against Chivas USA and FC Dallas.
More compact and mostly on the right. In a nod, to Matt Doyle comments on the aforementioned podcast, "CJ Sapong is Brian McBride II and he's dragging the defense everywhere and opening up Kei Kamara."
Well, almost everywhere.
Sapong's staying a little more tidy in the middle and keeping the flanks open for Kamara and
Convey. (BTW, it's very impressive to see Sapong move off the ball. While his touch can use work, Sapong not only takes angles, but he also initiates contact offball and move his defender out of position. Watch him this weekend.)
• Bobby Convey has been "anti-" his reputation.
Want to know why Vermes is the leading candidate for coach–and perhaps front office man–of the year.
Look no further that Convey. Some [looks in mirror, sighs] wondered if Vermes knew what he was doing bringing in the often me-first, petulant player to a strong locker room in the offseason.
Tactically, it's paying dividends.
Last year, KC trotted out Omar Bravo primarily on the left flank. While coming off the corner added pressure to the defense it also opened up KC to being susceptible to counter attacks through the middle and–extremely key for the attack–it reduced width because with Kamara on the right and Bravo on the left it actually reduced the space that the fullbacks could advance to. (We'll come back to that.)
This year, they've added Convey on the left–hat tip to Top Drawer Soccer's Travis Clark who saw Convey's deployment at "forward" in Vermes thinking early on.
Convey adds some valuable assets to the KC attack.
While Convey can get wide, he's more deployed–unlike Bravo–in a withdrawn position. From this position, KC can elect to:
(a) Use Convey as the left-side attacking hub
(b) Use Convey's excellent ability to provide service on the left to set up Kamara and Sapong around the posts
(c) Provide lead passes to Seth Sinovic overlapping on the flank.
(d) Stymie some counterattacks.
With Sinovic and Myers barreling down the flanks frequently it's a lot of width and personnel for any defense to handle.
Which brings us to….
• SKC don't flunk the flanks
A little Mel Brooks reference for you there.
Barcelona is a team that people love to invoke for all types of analogies. TSG tries to avoid it, but we'll use it here.
Chance Myers? Peter Vermes Dani Alves flanker. Let's look–above–though with the ball on the other side.
With Convey tucking in more than flaring out in midfield and Zusi working off the right hash, it gives license and impetus for Sinovic on the left (pictured with the triangle above) and Chance Myers on the right (not pictured) to get ahead in the attack. Consequently, the opponent's backline is spread out creating channels for Kamara and Sapong OR creating trailing opportunities for….
(*Note: Take a look at Myers heat charts on MLS Soccer. Myers is above the halfline for a majority of the game and hugs the endline ad nauseum.)
• Graham Zusi is driving a Lincoln Navigator…
That is, he's got a lot of room to come forward and pick his spots and from his vantage point he's got an excellent view of what the defense is doing.
Combine this with Zusi's ability to shoot from three and it's no wonder that Zusi is already the league's assist leader.
Zusi (Encino Man here at TSG) is KC's Russell Westbrook (more than Chris Paul).
Zusi isn't hubbing or spreading the ball, he's more getting the ball in advantageous positions and taking what the defense gives him (and being explosive).
Back off him and he'll shoot or provide service. Step to and he'll provide a penetrating assist.
Finally all this is made possible by the maturation of Roger Espinoza or the rich man's Ricardo Clark. Espinoza covers so much ground that he gives Zusi and a tucked-in Convey the ability to attack at will. Espinoza (Barca again) is also very Puyol-like when faced with the opponent breaking against him and Convey and Zusi advanced–either he'll get stuck-in and smack a jarring tackle on you or he'll take a foul and hustle back.
And that's how you go from 14 shots on goal per game in 2011 to over 20 in 2012.
Whatcha got Bruce Arena?
(*Note: We said we'd come back to the negative. Sporting KC is very untidy with the ball. They get a lot of shots, but these are more the result of a go-go-go mentality and they are not always the best opportunities. Despite their possession stats, this is more from winning the ball get quickly rather than true possession maintenance. A better possessing team–Real Salt Lake–will be an interesting match-up for where KC is in their….seasoning.)

Sid Vicious was born in London to parents Anne and John, a
former grenadier guard. His father left shortly afterwards, and,
during John's early years, he moved with his mother to the
Spanish island of Ibiza, where she allegedly made a living
selling drugs. The pair later moved back to England, where Anne
married Chris Beverly in 1965 before setting up a family home in
Kent. However his step-father died six months later and by 1968
John and his mother were living in a rented flat in Tunbridge
Wells where John attended Sandown Court School. In 1971 the pair
moved to Hackney in north London where in 1974 Ritchie first met
John Lydon (later known as Johnny Rotten), a fellow student at
Hackney Technical College. By 1974 he had already begun using
drugs intravenously with his mother, and, by 1975, he had
started to self harm. Some accounts of his life relate that he
strangled a cat and assaulted a pensioner around this time.
Sid Vicious' name reportedly came from an ironic joke involving the name of his pet hamster Sid the Vicious, which had a habit of biting people. The new name may have been helpful because both his co-squatters (Lydon and John Wardle (later known as Jah Wobble)) were also named John and the three of them were sometimes referred to as The Three Johns. He reportedly made a deliberate effort to match the media myths that grew up around him and his name.
Vicious was close friends with the Bromley Contingent, a group of followers and fans of the S-- Pistols that instigated the fashion avant-garde of the early UK punk rock movement. He began his musical career as a member of The Flowers Of Romance along with Keith Levene and Jah Wobble (who later co-founded John Lydon's post-Pistols project Public Image Limited). He soon joined Siouxsie & the Banshees, playing drums at their notorious first gig at the 100 Club Punk Festival in London's Oxford Street.
According to the band's photographer Dennis Morris Vicious was "deep down, a shy person" but he was renowned for a violent streak. At the 100 Club punk festival a thrown glass shattered against a pillar and a young girl lost her sight in one eye. Sid is widely believed to have been responsible but this was never proven. At the same event he also assaulted NME journalist Nick Kent with a bicycle chain and on another occasion threatened BBC DJ and Old Grey Whistle Test presenter Bob Harris at a London nightclub.
Already known as the ultimate S-- Pistols fan, Sid Vicious joined the group after Glen Matlock's departure in February 1977. According to punk legend, manager Malcolm McLaren wanted Vicious in the band because of his looks and punk attitude: If Rotten is the voice of punk, then Vicious is the look. His punk character was considered far more helpful than any knack for playing and Vicious was notoriously inept musically. Jon Savage's biography of the S-- Pistols, England's Dreaming, recounts that most of the bass parts on the band's later recordings were played by guitarist Steve Jones and at live performances Sid's amplifier was usually switched off. Sid is said to have asked Lemmy Kilmister from Motörhead to teach him how to play bass with the words, "I can't play bass." Lemmy's reply was "I know." According to Lemmy, Vicious was a hopeless student. In his autobiography No Irish, No Blacks, No Dogs, John Lydon writes, "he wasn't too bad at all for three-chord songs." Sid played his first gig with the Pistols on April 3, 1977 at the Screen On The Green Cinema in London. His debut was filmed by Don Letts and appears in Punk Rock Movie.
In November 1977 Sid Vicious met American groupie Nancy Laura Spungen and they immediately began a relationship (Spungen had come to London looking for Jerry Nolan of The Heartbreakers). She was a heroin addict, and inevitably Vicious, who already believed in his own live fast, die young image, soon shared the dependence. Although deeply in love, their often violent and rocky relationship had a disastrous effect on the S-- Pistols. Both the group and Vicious visibly deteriorated during their 1978 American tour. The Pistols broke up in San Francisco on January 14 during a concert at the Winterland Ballroom when Rotten walked off the stage. Vicious left shortly afterwards, and with Spungen acting as his "manager" he embarked on a short and ignoble solo career, during which he performed with musicians including Mick Jones of The Clash, original S-- Pistols bassist Glen Matlock, Rat Scabies of The Damned and the New York Dolls' Arthur Kane and Jerry Nolan.
Meanwhile Sid Vicious and Spungen had become locked in their own world of drug addiction and self-destruction. Interview footage shows the couple attempting to answer questions from their bed: Spungen is barely coherent while Vicious lapses in and out of consciousness. Vicious also came very close to death following a heroin overdose and was hospitalized for a time.
On the morning of October 12, 1978 Vicious allegedly awoke from a drugged stupor to find Spungen crumpled dead on the bathroom floor of room 100 in the Hotel Chelsea in New York. She had received a single stab wound to her abdomen and apparently bled to death. Sid Vicious was arrested and charged with her murder although he said he had no memory of having done so. However, he later claimed to have "killed her because I'm a dirty dog". There are unsubstantiated theories Spungen was murdered by someone else, usually said to be one of the many drug dealers who visited the apartment.
Bail of $50,000 was put up by Virgin Records at the request of Malcolm McLaren, and in February 1979 a party to celebrate his release was held at the home of his new girlfriend Michelle Robinson. During his time at Rikers Island prison, Vicious had undergone drug rehabilitation therapy and was supposedly clean. However at the party he obtained some heroin from his mother, Anne Beverly, and was discovered dead the following morning, having taken a large overdose. Speculation has persisted that Sid Vicious, unable to live without his beloved Nancy, took his own life. He wrote the following poem about her:
After Sid Vicious's death his mother phoned Nancy's mother to request that Vicious be buried next to Nancy but Deborah Spungen declined. There are several myths about what happened to Vicious' remains but one of the most persistent is that late one night "Sid's mother jumped the graveyard fence where Nancy was buried and scattered his ashes over his beloved for them to be together for all time."
According to the Guardian newspaper, "It's more likely that Ma Vicious arrived back at Heathrow with his remains. Malcolm McLaren claims she knocked them over in the arrivals lounge; hence the fanciful myth that Sid's essence still circulates, wafting through the air vents and moving among the travelers."
Sid Sings, a solo album, was released posthumously by Virgin Records. This was mostly a collection of cover versions of rock 'n' roll numbers such as "C'mon Everybody" and "Something Else" by Eddie Cochran along with material by Iggy Pop and Johnny Thunders and a rendition of the Paul Anka / Frank Sinatra standard "My Way". Striking footage of Vicious performing this song in Paris provides the closing sequence for Julien Temple's film The Great Rock 'n' Roll Swindle.

Drag a Text File Into Excel
Last month, I showed you how to drag information from a web browser into Excel. You can also drag text files, to open them quickly in Excel. I find this a really quick way to open a text file, especially if Windows Explorer is already open.
Instead of using the Open command, or the Text Import Wizard, just drag the text file into the Excel window.
The text file opens automatically, in separate columns in this example, because the data was tab separated.

Lugar was honored for her role in securing funding to recruit students and encourage them to seek careers in the health professions.
Lugar, together with ISU faculty members Veda Gregory and Yasenka Peterson, conducted 19 "road shows†where the interdisciplinary team makes class presentations and has health career display booths at junior high and high schools located in the West Central Indiana AHEC's 11 county service area. Many of the junior high and high school class instructors have asked that these programs be repeated every semester/trimester.
The same professors collaborated to develop a week-long interdisciplinary "health careers summer honors program†to be held on the ISU campus in July. The program allows students an opportunity to learn through classroom and an agency-based volunteer experience at local health and social service agencies to learn about the professionals that respond to complex human concerns while becoming certified in CPR and First Aid and obtaining Disaster Education Training.
West Central Indiana AHEC is providing funding to enable up to 50 disadvantaged high school students to attend the summer honors programs at no cost. Priority for the funding will be given to students coming from the counties designated as health professions shortage and/or medically underserved.
Area Health Education Center (AHEC) is a federal program responding to physician and health-care provider shortages in underserved and rural areas. To date, there are more than 180 AHEC offices in 46 states, including five regional centers in Indiana providing services to all 92 counties.
Indiana AHEC's program office is at the Indiana University School of Medicine on the IU Medical Center campus. Statewide the program's objective is to improve the distribution of health-care professionals in underserved areas, and improve the diversity and quality of education of the health-care workforce in Indiana.

Archer Daniels Midland Co. (ADM) now offers a corn-derived chemical that it says is a potential alternative to the petroleum-based bisphenol A (BPA) in plastics and other applications. Isosorbide, which will be sold under ADM's line of Evolution Chemicals, can be marketed as "safe and renewable," according to ADM. BPA has come under consumer attack, retail bans, and regulatory examination for its alleged health impacts and "estrogen-mimicking" activity. The public outcry has all but driven polycarbonate (PC), which uses BPA as a key building block, from a variety of former strong holds, particularly in food- and beverage-contact applications like baby bottles and reusable sports bottles.
ADM describes isosorbide as a versatile ingredient with potential application in polyesters for inks, toners, powder coatings, packaging, durable goods; polyurethanes for foams and coatings; polycarbonates for durable goods and optical media; epoxy resins for paints; and detergents, surfactants, and additives for personal care and consumer products. ADM currently offers isosorbide in a technical grade that's 97% pure, as well as a polymer grade that's 99% pure.
In a May 19 presentation at the BMO Capital Markets 2010 Agriculture Protein & Fertilizer Conference, ADM said it was "investigating economical production methods for isosorbide for applications in plastics." The company described its current isosorbide output as coming from a pilot-scale line....

Precision Navigation Using Fused Flow™ Algorithm
This paper describes the mechanisms used for the Fused Flow™ algorithm in Luftronix's precision navigation system. It also covers how visual information about displacement can be combined with inertial and absolute reference sources to increase precision or provide navigational autonomy.
Precision in navigation matters to different degrees depending on the use case. High-altitude airspaces with little traffic need far less precision than indoor or congested airspace scenarios. Precise navigation is an essential step towards advanced scenarios of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) operation like unattended take-off and landing and fully autonomous flight. In all scenarios, precision is expected to become an important factor as the number of participants increases.
The Luftronix Fused Flow™ navigation system achieves precision in navigation by taking its input from all available sources and allows for correction from absolute sources whenever they are available. Using this fusion of diverse input sources, Luftronix navigation systems are able to obtain sub-centimeter precision for the flight path of UAVs.
Technical Fundamentals
Luftronix precision navigational units consist of three major components: The flight control unit for managing the flight path; the Luftronix Fused Flow navigator; and the data acquisition layer to interface with the payload.
Fused Flow™ Navigation
To obtain precise navigation capabilities, flight control units rely on real-time decisions based on the input from low-latency sources. Luftronix Fused Flow™ is able to take into account a number of types of sources:
Distance Sensor. Fused Flow™ works with barometric altimeters, laser range finders, 3D cameras or sonar systems to determine distance from objects and altitude above ground.
Gyroscopes to measure the angle against the surface and rotation.
Electro-optical input to take snapshots of contrast markers on the surface and calculate the vector between time intervals.
3D Cameras to map the shape of the surface.
Short-wave infrared sensors to measure distance and to generate contrast markers in cases where they don't naturally exist.
Long-wave thermal sensors to detect patterns in the infrared spectrum that would be inaccessible to electro-optical methods.
In addition to taking input from sensors allowing the deduction of a relative path, Fused Flow™ also accepts corrective information from fixed reference points when available. Examples are travelling in and out of GPS coverage, local positioning systems, usage of infrared beacons or similar known reference points to correct the relative flight path.
Data Acquisition Layer
The primary purpose of flying a UAV today is to gather data found through sensors aimed at the surface or at an object. Luftronix supports a data acquisition layer that is linked to the precision navigation instruments for location tagging in the metadata. Luftronix-equipped UAVs support the full range of sensors for data acquisition including electro-optical, 3D-camera, infrared, thermal, sound, chemical, radio, radiation and multi-spectral sensors. Payload on UAVs is equipped with a choice of sensors depending on mission requirements.
Optical Flow and Fused Flow™
Optical Flow is based on James Gibson's observation of how humans and animals interpret relative motion as they travel through the world. It has been extended into a mathematical framework for interpreting discrete image displacements and the algorithms have been analyzed by Barron, Fleet and Beauchemin in 1994. Today it is considered a known method to utilize electro-optical input sources to determine the rate of displacement over time.
By itself, Optical Flow suffers from larger than acceptable error accumulation and is therefore only useful for short sections of a mission. Luftronix has complemented the strategy of using displacement information by augmenting it with additional sources of input for a Fused Flow™ model of displacement that takes into account additional relevant factors such as the angle of the camera to the surface, elevation, heading and possible temporary view obstruction to a complete model of motion. In essence, this results in a more precise optical flow algorithm that is still able to operate in real time.
Luftronix Fused Flow™ uses a sample consensus method to implement a robust algorithm that compares markers in two subsequently taken images and determines how large the vector of movement was between the two samples of the surface, after taking into consideration factors like altitude, angle and rotation – all of which might have changed between the two samples.

Middle Eastern Terror Virus is Worse than SARS
What is the backwards and uncivilized Middle East doing now to thank us for our work "stabilizing" their region, with explosives? They are dying from a brand new virus that researchers now say is "deadlier than SARS." How long before you, too, are dead?
The popular new virus of the summer, MERS-CoV, has struck primarily in Saudi Arabia, where 32 people have died. It's also cropped up in other Middle Eastern nations, and in western Europe. It hasn't appeared here in the land of the free.................................... YET.
The Washington Post reports that epidemiologists who yesterday published findings on the new killer virus noted, "Of 23 confirmed cases in April, 15 people died — an 'extremely high' fatality rate of 65 percent."
So if you get it, you have a better than average chance of soon being dead. How do you get it? Through "personal contact," i.e. breathing. And "all reported cases have been linked to Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Jordan and the United Arab Emirates."
Have you been to the Middle East, or breathed the same air as a Middle Eastern person? Buddy, you're going to jail. It's for the safety of everyone. We will not allow this deadly new virus to hate our freedoms (until it inevitably kills us all in the near future).

J.W. Cooley and J.W. Tukey are given credit for bringing the FFT to the world in their paper: "An algorithm for the machine calculation of complex Fourier Series," Mathematics Computation, Vol. 19, 1965, pp 297-301. In retrospect, others had discovered the technique many years before. For instance, the great German mathematician Karl Friedrich Gauss (1777-1855) had used the method more than a century earlier. This early work was largely forgotten because it lacked the tool to make it practical: the digital computer. Cooley and Tukey are honored because they discovered the FFT at the right time, the beginning of the computer revolution.
The FFT is based on the complex DFT, a more sophisticated version of the real DFT discussed in the last four chapters. These transforms are named for the way each represents data, that is, using complex numbers or using real numbers. The term complex does not mean that this representation is difficult or complicated, but that a specific type of mathematics is used. Complex mathematics often is difficult and complicated, but that isn't where the name comes from. Chapter 29 discusses the complex DFT and provides the background needed to understand the details of the FFT algorithm. The
topic of this chapter is simpler: how to use the FFT to calculate the real DFT, without drowning in a mire of advanced mathematics.
Since the FFT is an algorithm for calculating the complex DFT, it is important to understand how to transfer real DFT data into and out of the complex DFT format. Figure 12-1 compares how the real DFT and the complex DFT store data. The real DFT transforms an N point time domain signal into two N/2 + 1 point frequency domain signals. The time domain signal is called just that: the time domain signal. The two signals in the frequency domain are called the real part and the imaginary part, holding the amplitudes of the cosine waves and sine waves, respectively. This should be very familiar from past chapters.
In comparison, the complex DFT transforms two N point time domain signals into two N point frequency domain signals. The two time domain signals are called the real part and the imaginary part, just as are the frequency domain signals. In spite of their names, all of the values in these arrays are just ordinary numbers. (If you are familiar with complex numbers: the j's are not included in the array values; they are a part of the mathematics. Recall that the operator, Im( ), returns a real number).
Suppose you have an N point signal, and need to calculate the real DFT by means of the Complex DFT (such as by using the FFT algorithm). First, move the N point signal into the real part of the complex DFT's time domain, and then set all of the samples in the imaginary part to zero. Calculation of the complex DFT results in a real and an imaginary signal in the frequency domain, each composed of N points. Samples 0 through N/2 of these signals correspond to the real DFT's spectrum.
As discussed in Chapter 10, the DFT's frequency domain is periodic when the negative frequencies are included (see Fig. 10-9). The choice of a single period is arbitrary; it can be chosen between -1.0 and 0, -0.5 and 0.5, 0 and 1.0, or any other one unit interval referenced to the sampling rate. The complex DFT's frequency spectrum includes the negative frequencies in the 0 to 1.0 arrangement. In other words, one full period stretches from sample 0 to sample N-1, corresponding with 0 to 1.0 times the sampling rate. The positive frequencies sit between sample 0 and N/2, corresponding with 0 to 0.5. The other samples, between N/2 + 1 and N - 1, contain the negative frequency values (which are usually ignored).
Calculating a real Inverse DFT using a complex Inverse DFT is slightly harder. This is because you need to insure that the negative frequencies are loaded in the proper format. Remember, points 0 through N/2 in the complex DFT are the same as in the real DFT, for both the real and the imaginary parts. For the real part, point N/2 + 1 is the same as point N/2 - 1, point N/2 + 2 is the same as point N/2 - 2, etc. This continues to point N-1 being the same as point 1. The same basic pattern is used for the imaginary part, except the sign is changed. That is, point N/2 + 1 is the negative of point N/2 - 1, point N/2 + 2 is the negative of point N/2 - 2, etc. Notice that samples 0 and N/2 do not have a matching point in this duplication scheme. Use Fig. 10-9 as a guide to understanding this symmetry. In practice, you load the real DFT's frequency spectrum into samples 0 to N/2 of the complex DFT's arrays, and then use a subroutine to generate the negative frequencies between samples N/2 + 1 and N-1 . Table 12-1 shows such a program. To check that the proper symmetry is present, after taking the inverse FFT, look at the imaginary part of the time domain. It will contain all zeros if everything is correct (except for a few parts-per-million of noise, using single precision calculations).

NetBSD's libpthread ignores the per-thread stack size that can be set with pthread_attr_setstacksize(), and it looks like Wine relies on this in some fashion. It's not clear to me exactly what's going on, but: - when it dumps core, the current thread's stack pointer is 0x7fcefe8c; - pthread__self() constructs 0x7c000000 from this because pthread_stacksize is 0x4000000; - however, the bottom of the current stack as it exists in memory, as ascertained by poking memory with gdb, is 0x7fbe0000; - wine uses pthread_attr_setstacksize() - see wine-0.9.23/loader/pthread.c. I tried working around this by setting $PTHREAD_STACKSIZE to 1152 (0x120000 / 1024) in the hopes that this would cause pthread__self to return the "right" address. This allows wineprefixcreate, or rather, the wine invocation inside it, to get past the initial SIGSEGV, but it still doesn't work - it appears to be back to the infinite loop I was seeing last spring after the signal fixes.

RIO DE JANEIRO, Brazil - The Brazilian city where Portugal's Cristiano Ronaldo and Nigeria's John Mikel Obi will train for the World Cup is in the grip of a crippling dengue fever epidemic.
Workers in Campinas have embarked on a huge operation to eradicate mosquitoes, which spread the disease, before the Portuguese and Nigerian teams arrive.
Some 32,384 people have been infected by dengue this year in the southeastern city about one hour from Sao Paulo. At least three people have died.
"It's a record epidemic. It's bigger than the 11,500 cases registered in all of 2007," said Andrea Von Zuben, who co-ordinates the Campinas dengue control program.
Dengue is a viral infection carried by the aedes aegypti mosquito.
The fever is like chronic influenza with severe headaches, muscle and joint pain, vomiting and a rash.
Severe cases can be deadly. Three people have died of dengue this year in Campinas, women aged 27, 69 and 81. Three other deaths are being investigated to see if they were caused by the disease.
There is no cure for dengue, so prevention is the best medicine.
The World Health Organisation recommends people in infected areas prevent mosquito bites with window screens, insect repellant and mosquito coils.
It also suggests covering exposed skin - advice that may cramp Portuguese captain Ronaldo's bare-chested style, a topic of much commentary after his pectoral-flexing goal celebration at this year's Champions League final.
Brazil has been hit harder by dengue than any other country so far this century, with seven million cases reported between 2000 and 2013.
Von Zuben said the Campinas outbreak was being driven by a heatwave at the beginning of the year, the prevalence of a particularly virulent dengue strain and poor sanitation that leaves pools of standing water where mosquitoes breed.
But she said the areas where the Nigerian and Portuguese squads will be are a mosquito-control priority for health officials.

Economic Evaluation in the Chemical Process Industries: A Guide to Prudent Planning
Wiley, 1986 - Chemical industry - 241 pages
Economic evaluation is necessary in deciding whether to pursue proposed business ventures. No business is too small to ignore economic evaluation, none too large to override it. This book describes how economic evaluations are performed in the chemical processing industries and illustrates them by appropriate examples. It stresses methods actually employed in real situations and suggests how results can be interpreted. To the extent possible the authors use common business language rather than specialized terms in order that new concepts will be more readily understood by those encountering the subject for the first time.

The most memorable moment from the Huskies' conference opening loss to Southern California came at the end of the first overtime. UW was down by three with about one second left.
The obvious play would be to screen for Ryan Appleby – the three-point ace with the hot hand – to take the final shot. But coach Lorenzo Romar went in another direction, calling the play for his 7-foot freshman, who nailed the shot.
Romar explains his thinking: "We kind of felt that if Appleby was on the floor, and even Hans – if those guys were on the floor they were going to guard them. And we put Spencer on the other side of the ball, hoping that they would kind of forget about him, No. 1. No. 2, big guys usually don't usually have to get through screens for shots. No. 3, Spencer can shoot the ball."
That's the same idea the Gene Hackman character had in "Hoosiers" – taking the ball out of his best shooters' hands because the other team would expect the best shooter to shoot. But whereas the Hackman character was talked out of it ("I'll make it, coach…"), Romar's plan was unopposed and it worked.
Romar, by the way, credits his time with NBA coach Don Nelson for giving him the courage to take the unconventional approach.

Now that Titanfall is out, Respawn hopes that sceptical gamers notice the difference between traditional dedicated servers and Microsoft's new Azure cloud.
Speaking in a Major Nelson podcast, as reported by MP1st.com, Respawn engineer Jon Shiring said that Microsoft's cloud infrastructure has opened up new possibilities for the recently launched multiplayer shooter.
"I know that the internet is very sceptical that this is real. Hopefully less so now that Titanfall is out and they realise that they really are playing on these servers out there," he said.
"There's a lot of things we're doing in this that's really different from how any other game has done it before. In the traditional model of dedicated servers is you go to your server and that is your home base. One of the key things that is interesting about the Xbox Live Compute that runs on Azure is that they've commodotised servers so much, that we just don't care.
"I can ask for a server, use it for 10 seconds, and then go like, 'ah we don't need it anymore' and throw it out. We bounce people around server to server, and so you're hitting a lot of different servers and that let's us do cool things.
Shiring added that the server architecture afforded developers new possibilities that previously would have been impossible due to limited console CPU bandwidth.
"So there's been a lot of interesting changes because of that idea that's gone through everything from matchmaking and skill and how we do the training in the beginning of the game and all these things," the developer said.

I just finished my second week at an outpatient clinic where I see a great variety of patients. I'd say it's split 50/50 between orthopedic and neurologic diagnoses. The caseload diversity is going to be a great learning experience. But until I feel up to speed again with my outpatient skills (especially my evaluation skills), I anticipate a few rocky patches and early breaking points.
As a student six months away from graduating, I know there are certain expectations about where you should be in the spectrum of clinical development, particularly with the orthopedic population. However I haven't completed a full ortho eval in about a year-and-a-half and to be honest, we hadn't even covered our entire musculoskeletal coursework at that point. So when I looked at my schedule for the week and saw shoulder, knee, low-back, and cervical initial evaluations, I felt completely overwhelmed.
I managed to tackle it all, but reflecting on the week I'm starting to feel like the caseload is getting away from me. I don't feel like I've had time to think about each of these patients or develop a plan of care that I feel comfortable progressing. It's always a tough situation to be in as a student because you want to be challenged and you want your colleagues to trust you with as many responsibilities as possible, but there's a very thin line between juggling those responsibilities and letting it all come crashing down.

Nearly 90 percent of gymnasts report wrist pain -- prevention is paramount.
As I read the list of diagnoses of patients for initial evaluations in your upcoming week, I too feel a little overwhelmed. My only true orthopedic outpatient clinical was the first one, two years ago now, and my nervousness about being able to perform is even greater as it pertains to the job I am expected to do in a few months as a licensed therapist on my own. Now it's not just about colleagues being able to trust me with a reasonable amount of responsibility, but living up to the expectation and not disappointing them that they hired me in the first place. I appreciate the helpful advice offered by Emily in her comment to this same post to write down the next day's schedule to allow time for ideas ahead of time. I will try to employ that technique. I also hope to shadow various therapists at the clinic between now my start date to just become more familiar with the facility and how things work, but to also get more exposure to outpatient clinical experience. For these reasons, I am grateful to have a few months until then!
Going into my first day of my final clinical rotation, I was pretty nervous--a big reason for this being that I didn't know what would be expected of me when it came to caseload. I looked at the schedule for the upcoming week and noticed that 2 and sometimes 3 patients were scheduled every hour. There were also times when an initial evaluation was scheduled at the same time as a follow-up visit. By the end of my rotation, I was seeing all patients on the schedule by myself (which usually amounted to 10-15 patients). Not going to lie, there were several days (especially during the beginning of my clinical) where I felt completely overwhelmed. After a few weeks, I began writing down my schedule for the following day. That evening I would brainstorm treatment ideas for each of my patients so that the next day if I began getting overwhelmed by the volume of patients, I could go to these lists of ideas. I found that this really helped me to maintain my sanity and helped to keep my stress level down.
