Aniplex USA Announces Two New Releases
October 9, 2010 October 9, 2010 Dan Furnas
Aniplex USA has announced release dates for two anime series, the DVD release of Durarara!! and the Blu-Ray release of Read or Die. Aniplex has partnered with Bandai Entertainment for the distribution of both titles.
The Durarara!! release is part one out of three and contains the first nine episodes. Part one of the series will release January 25, 2011, and pre-orders are available now. If you pre-order through Rightstuf, you can also receive a keychain featuring Celty, one of the characters from the series. The DVD sets will also include collectible postcards featuring characters from the series.
The series description from Rightstuf: "Ikebukuro, Tokyo. Mikado Ryugamine is a young man who yearns for the city like no other. At the invitation of his childhood friend, Masaomi Kida, he leaves his hometown and enters Raira Academy in Ikebukuro. Masaomi warns Mikado about the mysterious organization of unknown origin known as the "Dollars" and some dangerous people in Ikebukuro to watch out for. In particular: the brawling champion Shizuo Heiwajima and hobbyist information broker Izaya Orihara.
On his first day out in the city, Mikado, remembering another of Masaomi's stories, sees a jet-black motorcycle being driven by the fabled "Headless Rider." From then on, a series of random attacks and events begins to occur on the streets of Ikebukuro, and a group known as the Yellow Scarves arises as Ikebukuro begins to crumble!"
The other title Aniplex announced, Read or Die, is set for release on Blu-Ray on January 18th. The box set will contain the full TV series plus three OVA episodes and also includes a 48 page booklet.
The OVAs follow "The Paper", Yomiko Readman: "Yomiko Readman is a lovable, near-sighted bibliomaniac working as a substitute teacher at a Japanese high school. Her real identity, however, is that of a secret agent for the British Library Special Operations Division. Her codename: "The Paper." The moniker denotes her supernatural ability to freely manipulate paper into any object she can imagine, including tools and weapons in her fight against the powerful and self-serving IJIN (Great Historical Figure) Army! Along with her partner, the enigmatic "Ms. Deep," Yomiko travels across the world in attempt to solve the mystery behind the reincarnation of historical figures and their attempt to control the world."
The TV series comes later and follows the Paper Sisters in a separate but somewhat related storyline: "Five years have passed since the occurrence of the incident known as the "Human Annihilation Mission." In Japan, a novelist is dealing with writer's block after her friend has gone missing. In Hong Kong, three sisters, masters in the use of paper, run their own detective agency to solve cases that involve books. When these people are brought together, a bond greater than blood is formed – a bond that will be sorely tested by the evil powers intent on taking over the world."

Rohit Sharma To Miss 2nd Test In Dhaka Due To Injury: Reports
Rai Sinha
As per reports, Team India's regular captain Rohit Sharma has been ruled out of the second Test against Bangladesh starting in Mirpur on December 22 as well. Rohit, who earlier missed the first Test in Chattogram, will no longer be travelling to Dhaka as well. And, vice-captain KL Rahul will continue to lead the team in his absence in the second and final Test of the series as well. Meanwhile, India are currently leading the series 1-0.
However, the news of Rohit's unavailability came on Monday (December 19) after it was found that his thumb, which was injured during the second ODI of the ongoing tour, has not fully healed yet. He seems to be suffering from a little bit of stiffness too. Considering the important series ahead for the team, the board as well as the team management have decided to give him rest to heal the injury properly.
However, it is learnt that Rohit Sharma, who is currently in Mumbai, would have managed to bat through the Test but the risk factor remained the same as well while fielding. The medical team and also the team management felt that the injury could get serious on the field if he gets hurt once again in the same place. Notably, he will be available for the white ball series (three T20Is and three ODIs) against Sri Lanka starting on January 3 as well.

Often when profiling GPU-accelerated applications that run on clusters, one needs to visualize MPI (Message Passing Interface) calls on the GPU timeline in the profiler. While tools like Vampir and Tau will allow programmers to see a big picture view of how a parallel application performs, sometimes all you need is a look at how MPI is affecting GPU performance on a single node using a simple tool like the NVIDIA Visual Profiler. With the help of the NVIDIA Tools Extensions (NVTX) and the MPI standard itself, this is pretty easy to do.
The NVTX API lets you embed information within a GPU profile, such as marking events or annotating ranges in the timeline with details about application behavior during that time. Jiri Kraus wrote past posts about generating custom application timelines with NVTX, and about using it to label individual MPI ranks in MPI profiles. In this post I'll show you how to use an NVTX range to annotate the time spent in MPI calls. To do this, we'll use the MPI profiling interface (PMPI), which is a standard part of MPI. PMPI allows tools to intercept calls to the MPI library to perform actions before or after the MPI call is executed. This means that we can insert NVTX calls into our MPI library calls to mark MPI calls on the GPU timeline.
So what's happening in this file? First, it includes the NVTX header file, and then loops over a series of common MPI functions and inserts the beginning of an NVTX range (nvtxRangePushEx) and then ends the range as we leave the MPI routine (nvtxRangePop). For convenience, I've named the range after the MPI routine being called. All I need to do now is call wrap.py to generate a C file with my PMPI wrappers, which I'll then build with my MPI C compiler.
Now I just need to rerun my code with these wrappers. To do this I'll relink my application with the object file I just built and the NVTX library (libnvToolsExt). As an example, I'll use the simple Jacobi Iteration used in the GTC session Multi GPU Programming with MPI, which you can find on Github. Once I've built both the application and the wrappers generated above, I run the executable as follows.
One word of caution: the linking order does matter when using tools such as PMPI, so if you run your code and are not seeing the expected results, the object file containing the wrappers may not appear early enough in the build command.
In the above commands I'm rebuilding my code with the necessary bits. I'm also setting MV2_USE_CUDA at runtime to enable cuda-awareness in my MVAPICH library. Additionally I'm informing nvprof to generate a timeline file per-MPI process by passing the MV2_COMM_WORLD_RANK environment variable to nvprof, which is defined to equal the MPI rank of each process. Figure 1 is the result of importing one of these resulting nvprof output files into Visual Profiler and then zooming in to an area of interest.
Figure 1: NVIDIA Visual Profiler with MPI ranges.
Looking in the "Markers and Ranges" row of the GPU timeline for MPI Rank 0, we see three green boxes denoting two calls to MPI_Sendrecv and one to MPI_Allreduce. Furthermore, we can see that the MPI library is using a device-to-device memcpy operation to communicate between two GPUs on the same node. As you can see, the NVIDIA Visual Profiler, combined with PMPI and NVTX can give you interesting insights into how the MPI calls in your application interact with the GPU.

Congressman: John Kelly is a 'disgrace to the uniform' and should resign over DACA decision

Republicans and conservative media figures have pounced on comments from Rep. Luis V. Gutiérrez (D-Ill.), in which the congressman called White House Chief of Staff John F. Kelly a "disgrace to the uniform he used to wear." But the congressman, who is arguing for the DREAM Act to be attached to must-pass bills, is refusing to back down.
In an interview Tuesday afternoon, Gutierrez doubled down on his strident comments about Kelly, describing his conversations over the last several months with the former homeland security secretary about the fate of "dreamers."
"This is a man that says to me to my face, 'I feel so bad for those dreamers. I'm the only one between them and their deportation,' " Gutiérrez recalled. "Well, if you think it's wrong, then act on your principle."
Leon Panetta, who became defense secretary when Kelly served as senior military assistant at the Pentagon in 2011, defended the former general Wednesday.
"He is somebody who respects the orders of the commander-in-chief. That's built into his fabric as a person," Panetta said. "I don't know you can lay everything you object to in this administration on the lap of John Kelly."
Meanwhile, Republicans who have hesitated to criticize beneficiaries of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, or DACA, program, have found a worthy political target in Gutiérrez. In several Fox News stories, commentators pointed out that Gutiérrez had not served in the military, while Kelly had lost a son in Afghanistan.
"What I would say to Mr. Gutiérrez, sit down with a Republican in the House and try to find a solution instead of slandering Gen. Kelly," said Sen. Lindsey O. Graham (R-S.C.), who is attempting to wrangle votes for a version of the DREAM Act.
Doug Rivlin, a spokesman for Gutiérrez, told the Post that when Kelly accepted a role in the administration, "he became a politician just like his boss who has done nothing but attack Latinos since he first descended the golden staircase at Trump Tower to call Mexicans murderers and rapists in 2015."
"General Kelly would not have abandoned his troops, but Chief of Staff Kelly apparently will," Rivlin said.
Gutiérrez said that he's "tired of all this 'I love them, they're great, but don't expect me to help them' " rhetoric from Republicans. "If I saw someone in need and I did nothing, I'd be defacing my own humanity."
He added: "We hear the same thing time and time again. They get out their 'Hay bendito, pobrecito' " — Spanish that roughly translates to mean, "Oh, you poor thing."
"They do this all the time," Gutiérrez said. "It's liked they watched too many telenovelas. But that's not going to help us. You know what will? Taking on your own right-wing, xenophobic, anti-immigrant sectors of your party and saying 'No.' "
Despite his sore feelings about Kelly, Gutiérrez said he's optimistic that Congress and the administration will be able to sort out a rescue plan for dreamers.
"My gut tells me it's going to happen. We're going to be on the streets. This is not going to end. There was one day we went to the airport for the Muslims? Well, this is going to go on day in and day out — constant, constant, constant — day in and day out," he said.


I wondering if it is possible at runtime to break the link between the model and the view.
In the following example, all the are link together (through the text model). When I click the button I want to make angular to not update the last input any more (for example to start some jquery effects...).
In the jsfiddle example I expect that the old values (these that are fading) do not change any more when I press the '+' button.

A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, ascending-dose study was conducted to evaluate the pharmacokinetic and safety profiles of increasing modafinil doses (200 mg, 400 mg, 600 mg, 800 mg) administered orally over a 7-day period in normal healthy male volunteers. Eight subjects (six modafinil; two placebo) were randomized to each of the four dose groups. Modafinil or a placebo was administered once daily for 7 days. Serial blood samples were obtained following administration of the day 1 and day 7 doses for characterization of pharmacokinetics, and trough samples were obtained prior to dosing on days 2 through 6 to assess the time to reach the steady state. Pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated using noncompartmental methods. Modafinil steady state was reached after three daily doses. Modafinil pharmacokinetics were dose and time independent over the range of 200 mg to 800 mg. Steady-state pharmacokinetics of modafinil were characterized by a rapid oral absorption rate, a low plasma clearance of approximately 50 mL/min, a volume of distribution of approximately 0.8 L/kg, and a long half-life of approximately 15 hr. Modafinil was primarily eliminated by metabolism. Modafinil acid was the major urinary metabolite. Stereospecific pharmacokinetics of modafinil were demonstrated. The d-modafinil enantiomer was eliminated at a threefold faster rate than 1-modafinil. Modafinil 200 mg, 400 mg, and 600 mg doses were generally well tolerated. The modafinil 800 mg dose panel was discontinued after 3 days of treatment due to the observation of increased blood pressure and pulse rate. The safety data from this study suggest that the maximum tolerable single daily oral modafinil dose, without titration, may be 600 mg.

European Parliament hearing about the criminalization of homelessness
"Criminalizing and penalizing homeless people for carrying out life-sustaining activities in public because there is nowhere to go is a problem across the EU" said Rina Beers, President of FEANTSA today at the European Parliament in Brussels. FEANTSA, Housing Rights Watch and Sylvie Guillaume MEP (S&D – France) co-hosted a public hearing today to raise awareness about the criminalization of homelessness in Europe.
Presenting to the hearing were groups from across Europe including, The City is For All from Hungary, Klimaka from Greece, and a coalition of NGOs from France (Fondation Abbe Pierre, Emmaus-Solidarite, etc.). The City is For All presented their strategic litigation campaign which successfully overturned criminalizing measures in Hungary last fall, only to see the Hungarian Prime Minister amend the constitution to prevent such legal challenges in the future. "We will continue fighting to protect human rights for all people, including people who are homeless," said representatives from The City is For All.
Call to action for the EU
Members of the European Parliament are clearly concerned about the issue, as Ms Guillaume indicated in her opening statements. The NGOs and activists called upon the European Commission to take action and work together to address the issue. "While the measures that criminalize homeless people for having to sleep rough, or using public spaces maybe be set and enforced at local level, the EU institutions have an important role to play. The European Commission should recognize that measures that allow the criminalization of homelessness violate human rights, and as such, violate the values upon which the EU is founded. Poverty is not a crime, it's a scandal." concluded Rina Beers.

This collar length 16 inch necklace combines the dense clean color of Turquoise with the grassy green Spring colors of pale faceted Peridot. Featuring 10mm round spherical cut Turquoise from the original Royal Beauty Mine in Nevada interspersed with elongated faceted Peridot. As always, of course, although the Turquoise has been stabilized the color is natural and the individual beads show the striking combination of black spiderweb and intense blue –reminiscent of the South Seas– that has quickly made Royal Beauty so sought after. (And so copied –this, of course, is genuine.) Handknotted on dark green silk and finished with a heavy 14k (yellow) gold safety clasp.

Stress can escalate cardiovascular complications. That's common knowledge, but how does it work at the molecular level? A new study by Heidt et al. draws new mechanistic links between the central nervous system and atherosclerosis that involve stress-induced hematopoietic progenitor cell activity. The researchers sought to mechanistically explain their initial observations made in highly stressed, on-duty medical residents working in the intensive care unit. They reported that higher perceived stress in medical residents while on duty was associated with elevated leukocyte counts. They also noted that chronic stress in mice led to elevated leukocyte counts that could be explained by increased proliferation of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs).
To provide a mechanism for these observations, the researchers focused on the sympathetic nervous system, which produces catecholamines such as norepinephrine in response to stress. They looked at the impact of norepinephrine on the HSC niche and found increased expression of norepinephrine and the limiting enzyme in norepinephrine production, tyrosine hydroxylase, in the bone marrow of the stressed mice. Moreover, the production of the chemokine CXCL12, which has a primary role in limiting HSC proliferation and is a target of norepinephrine, was suppressed in the bone marrow of the stressed mice. Next, the researchers discovered that β3-adrenergic receptors were highly expressed in the mesenchymal stromal cells of the bone marrow. Through an elaborate set of experiments involving a mouse model of genetic β3-adrenergic receptor deficiency and a selective β3-adrenoreceptor antogonist, the researchers demonstrated that production of stress-induced norepinephrine acts on HSC proliferation and CXCL12 suppression by selective engagement of the β3-adrenergic receptors in the HSC niche. These results should spark further interest in identifying the "stress sensor" in the hematopoietic progenitor cells that controls their differentiation into proinflammatory leukocytes.
The authors next investigated whether chronic stress promotes atherosclerosis by increasing the supply of inflammatory leukocytes to the atherosclerotic plaques through this new mechanism. Indeed, chronic stress in mice elevated plaque inflammation and the necrotic core size while thinning the fibrous cap (characteristics of vulnerable plaques), but surprisingly did so without altering plaque size. Furthermore, these stress-induced effects on plaque composition could be blocked by using β3-adrenoreceptor antogonists. These exciting findings warrant further investigation into the potential of selective β3-adrenergic receptor blockers for limiting cardiovascular events in humans.

Pepperdine earns 13th WCC title
BREMERTON, Wash. -- Pepperdine rolled to its 13th consecutive league title, winning the 2014 West Coast Conference championships by 17 strokes on Wednesday. Afterward, Grace Na was named WCC player of the year for the fourth consecutive year.
The eighth-ranked Waves have been victorious at 16 of the 18 WCC championships contested.
Pepperdine shot a total of 877 (285-294-298) over the three days at the par-72 Gold Mountain Golf Club. Gonzaga finished in second place at 894. The Waves led the Bulldogs by seven shots after the first round and 13 strokes after the second round. Gonzaga closed the gap a bit early in the third round before the Waves pulled away.
"Obviously, I'm very proud of the team," Pepperdine coach Laurie Gibbs said. "We had kind of a slow start today but we really got it going on the back nine and closed it out. The girls played really solid golf for three rounds."
The Waves have earned the league's automatic bid to NCAA postseason play. NCAA regional selections will be announced on Monday, April 28. Regionals will be held May 8-10 in Tallahassee, Fla.; Stillwater, Okla.; and Elum, Wash. The NCAA championships are May 20-23 in Tulsa, Okla.
In somewhat of an upset, the Waves didn't produce the medalist for only the fourth time in 18 championship events. Still, Pepperdine had four golfers place in the top seven.
Senior Liv Cheng and sophomore Marissa Chow both tied for second place with 3-over 219s. Cheng shot 70-75-74 and Chow was at 74-72-73. Both players had good finishes to their tournaments. Cheng had two birdies on her final six holes and Chow recorded an eagle on the par-5 sixth hole.
Na, a senior, who had won two of the last three WCC titles, tied for fifth place at 220 (72-72-76). Still, she earned her fourth WCC player of the year award after a tremendous regular season that included two victories and a No. 6 national ranking by Golfweek/Sagarin.
Junior Somin Lee came in seventh at 222 (72-75-75). Lee had a team-best three birdies on the day. Junior Alina Ching wound up in 14th place at 232 (71-78-83).
In other post-tournament honors, Cheng and Na became the ninth and 10th players in program history to earn All-WCC first team honors all four years. Chow and Lee both made the All-WCC first team for the second time. Ching was awarded honorable mention. It's the 12th consecutive year that the Waves have put at least four of their players on the All-WCC first team.
