IC CAD, ARM Techcon & ParCad Review IC CAD, ARM Techcon & ParCad Review:
EDA, GPU, Linux, Parallel Computing & EE Times
November 8th, 9th & 10th featured three conferences; IC CAD, ARM Techcon and ParCAD, which made for a busy but very interesting week. Just to touch the highlights; IC CAD ran out of printed programs, ARM Techcon featured a new GPU and an open source embedded software effort that should cut the ESL TAM in half (Linaro), and ParCAD proclaimed Parallel computing as just plain hard work.
IC CAD
This was not your father's IC CAD, with sessions on Biological and Post-CMOS Systems, Organic Electronics and Microfluidic Biochips it took a leap into the future. This was a much needed change that produced an upbeat and exciting IC CAD. The keynote by Lucio Lanza was the highlight of the conference. This was by far the best talk I've seen Lucio give and all of them have been excellent. The theme was that the EDA Industry is in the doldrums because they have not kept up with Moore's Law. The spiraling cost of design is a direct result of the lack of automation. Companies have had to throw engineers at the problem to solve it; driving up the cost of design.
ARM Techcon
ARM Techcon has become one of the must attend conferences for today's IC Design and Embedded Software Engineers. With a new conference management team in place it was a well-oiled, fine-tuned conference that was promoted and organized much better than past efforts. This allowed the ARM announcements to stand out as the major achievements that they were.
Their main announcement was their GPU (Mali-T604). Now that they feature microprocessors, microcontrollers and a graphics processor core the semiconductor world should be aware that, when ARM looks at the processor market, ARM looks at the entire processor market not just one segment.
The most significant announcement for the EDA Industry was the newest version of the Linaro software and tools. It seems that while we were asleep ARM put together an open source consortium initiative, that includes IBM, Samsung, TI, Freescale, ST-Ericsson, to develop a "free" embedded software Linux tool flow. That should cut the ESL TAM in half. Not that this wasn't predictable, the EDA vendors had about a five year window to take advantage of a golden opportunity. Too bad they didn't, but at least the Embedded Software Engineers are happy. It's interesting that a company the size of ARM developed the best set of multi/many-core embedded tools available today. They are clearly outperforming the market.
ParCAD
ParCAD was on Thursday and proved to be very interesting. The subject matter was solid, the interaction with the audience was invigorating and the conclusions were a bit on the scary side. The final panel pretty much summed it up. The panel consisted of:
Jay Adams, Synopsys
John Croix, Cadence
Patrick Groeneveld, Magma
Uli Finkler, IBM
Guy Maor, Extreme DA
Patrick Madden of SUNY was the moderator. Patrick has a history of being the voice (of Sanity) in the wilderness as far as parallel computing is concerned. To summarize the panel parallel computing is hard, very hard. Not only that but most EDA tools are not conducive to parallel efforts, certainly not into the many-core realm. Even to get the three to four times improvement in speed allowed by Amdahl's Law you must rewrite you algorithms. This means we cannot expect the dramatic gains in productivity we expected out of parallel computing, only the steady improvements we get by developing new algorithms as we have in the past.
EE Times: Shift in the Wind
I talked about the improvement in ARM Techcon's show management. It has been taken over by EE Times and Ron Wilson was doing a lot of the heavy lifting. Not that he didn't have a good team. Many of the old EE Times people are back and, as the recent additions of EE Times shows, they are making a major impact. Still a couple of rough edges but EE Times has once again become the paper to read. Not only that but they have also taken over the management of DesignCon which should prove to be very interesting. Looks like the design world is getting back the infrastructure it lost.

Pascal Languirand (* 3. Mai 1955 in Paris) ist ein kanadischer Musiker. Unter dem Projektnamen Trans-X schuf er 1983 mit dem Titel Living On Video einen Klassiker des Synthie Pops.

Karriere

Languirand ist Sohn des Autors und Fernsehproduzenten Jacques Languirand und wuchs in der frankokanadischen Stadt Québec und teilweise in Mexiko auf. Nachdem er als Jugendlicher sein Interesse an der Musik entdeckt hatte, nahm er nach Abschluss der Schule ein Studium der Kommunikationswissenschaft und elektronischen Musik an der McGill University in Montreal auf. 1978 erschien unter dem Titel Minos sein erstes Album, das deutliche Einflüsse der Musik von Pink Floyd und Tangerine Dream zeigt. Languirand, der auf dem Album alle Instrumente selbst spielte, experimentierte darauf in allen Stücken mit den Möglichkeiten, die ihm sein Synthesizer bot.

Auf dem Nachfolgealbum De harmonia universalia, das 1980 erschien, wandte er sich verstärkt der New-Age-Musik zu. Die Melodien des Synthesizers mischte er mit Elementen des gregorianischen Gesangs. 1981 schrieb er für die von seinem Vater produzierte kanadische Fernsehserie Vivre ici maintenant den Soundtrack.

Der größte kommerzielle Erfolg seiner Karriere gelang Languirand mit einem für sein Werk untypischen Stück. Zusammen mit der Sängerin Laurie Gill nahm er 1983 unter dem Projektnamen Trans-X das Album Living on Video auf. Auf ihm probierte Languirand einen Ausflug in die tanzbare Popmusik. Das als Single ausgekoppelte Titelstück entwickelte sich zu einem Welthit, von dem rund zwei Millionen Platten verkauft wurden. Die Single erreichte in Deutschland, der Schweiz und Großbritannien die Top Ten der Charts.

Von Living on Video entstanden zahlreiche Remixe und Coverversionen, unter anderem von Trans-X selbst, Pakito, Lazard oder Frozen Plasma.

Nach dem Welterfolg mit Trans-X zog sich Languirand vom Musikgeschäft zurück und lebte in den Vereinigten Staaten. Erst nach einer siebenjährigen Pause kam 1991 mit Gregorian Waves wieder ein Album auf den Markt, auf dem er musikalisch an seine ersten beiden Produktionen anknüpfte. Im Jahr 2005 erschien mit Incanta das bislang (Stand 2021) letzte Album unter seinem Namen.

Pascal Languirand ist Mitglied der mexikanischen Discolocos.

Middle Peninsula Planning District Commission
Grant Funding Available Now for Middle Peninsula Businesses Recovering from Impacts of COVID-19
In recognition of the hardships businesses on the Middle Peninsula have suffered as a result of the restrictions imposed to help slow the spread of COVID-19, the Middle Peninsula Planning District Commission, in partnership with the local governments of the region, has launched its Back to Business grant program.
Back to Business Middle Peninsula grants are available to assist impacted businesses by covering a portion of the increased costs incurred in response to social distancing and compliance with the new health and safety requirements put in place to reopen.
"The elected officials of the Middle Peninsula Planning District Commission take the responsibility to assist those businesses in need as a core responsibility of the Commission's work," said Lewie Lawrence, Middle Peninsula Planning District Commission Executive Director.
The grant program, funded by local governments thanks to allocations from the federal CARES Act, is designed to reimburse the increased cost of changed business practices that have been spent in response to the pandemic, but not cover the normal cost of operating the business.
Gloucester-based businesses only can also request assistance for past due rent or mortgage payments.
Grant applications can be submitted online at www.b2bmidpen.com.
Businesses in the following localities are eligible to apply: Gloucester, Mathews, Middlesex, Essex, King and Queen, and the Towns of Tappahannock, Urbanna and West Point.
"This program is a prime example of what makes our region so unique and how rural coastal Virginia can come together to support its residents and business owners," Lawrence said. "Some businesses have had to close while others have significantly modified their operations. By coming together as a region to support businesses we are able to help get grant funds into the hands of businesses more efficiently so our entire region can lead the way in recovery."
Businesses applying should read the eligibility requirements on the web site thoroughly, Lawrence said, and be prepared to submit various documents to support their application.
Supporting documents required include, but may not be limited to, a current 2020 copy of business license, receipts for items purchased with explanation of why the purchase was made to help continue operations during the pandemic, and photos of the items purchased.
Questions about the program or to request support in filling out the application should be directed to the Middle Peninsula Planning District Commission at 804-758-2311 or via email to dmantell@mppdc.com.

Induced Labor Not More Expensive to Health Care System than Spontaneous Labor
Upfront cost of inducing labor at 39 weeks is equal to costs that accrue during longer pregnancies.
3-May-2019 12:05 PM EDT, by University of Utah Health
Newswise — Expectant parents wait 40 weeks for the arrival of their new baby, but what if labor was induced one week earlier? Conventional wisdom holds that inducing labor at 39 weeks would be cost-prohibitive to a health care system. However, the results of a joint study between University of Utah Health and Intermountain Healthcare show inducing labor one week early costs the same as waiting for spontaneous labor.
Brett Einerson, M.D., M.P.H,will present their research findings at the Annual Meeting of the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists on Saturday, May 4th at 8:50 a.m. Eastern.
"We found that the increase in cost from other parts of patient care cancel out those costs [from induction]," said Einerson, assistant professor in the division of Maternal-Fetal Medicine at U of U Health. "This a conclusion that is totally opposite of what we in obstetrics have assumed over the past 30 years."
The study aimed to measure the actual cost differences between inducing labor early and spontaneous, natural labor. Einerson and his colleagues used data obtained from the ARRIVE clinical trial, a landmark, multicenter study consisting of more than 6,000 low-risk, first-time mothers. The team randomized 1,230 women enrolled in the ARRIVE study—608 were induced at 39 weeks and 622 experienced spontaneous labor.
"We watched real patients as they went through the [health care] system to evaluate the actual costs for randomized patients for clinical outcomes," Einerson said.
The results confirm that the increased cost accrued from women spending more time in the hospital after inducing labor is offset by cost saved from avoiding additional tests, visits and medications later in pregnancy, as well as serious health outcomes, like pre-eclampsia. In addition, the researchers found that inducing labor at 39 weeks reduced the rate of Cesarean section in new mothers.
"This a unique study that could only be accomplished in Utah," said Sean Esplin, M.D., maternal fetal medicine physician and Chair of the Women and Newborn Research Group at Intermountain Healthcare, who is a contributing author on the study. "These results demonstrate the importance of considering cost in the medical decisions that we make. Intermountain Healthcare and the University of Utah are interested in providing the highest quality of care at the lowest price possible, so we are constantly tracking costs, which makes a study like this possible."
While the study is focused on Utah hospitals, Einerson believes the results are applicable across the country. The hospitals in this study span a cross section of health care facilities, both academic and community hospitals, where most deliveries occur across the United States.
"This is a huge strength of our study," Einerson said. "Our results represent high and low volume hospitals, which were consistent across each institution and could be transferable to other hospitals across country."
The presentation,titled The Cost of Elective Labor Induction in the MFMU ARRIVE Trial, was funded by the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development, Maternal-Fetal Medicine Units Network. The results of the study have not been peer-reviewed or published in a scientific journal.

New york pacific division they are averaging 116 points
Week 4 has less marquee matchups, but I feel like college football always delivers fans some terrific games.Use with reckless abandon.They still don't have a player anywhere near as good as LeBron, and that's a concern.Northeastern State…Scored 1st career TD on 10-yarder at Southern Utah.The engine purrs under gentle throttle but responds with a satisfying snarl when you ask more of it.
Brian Leetch.Brown wins fast at the line, and the Redskins like to use a lot of quick-game passing.Useful Team Statistics The Wild have 98 total points this season.It's just the nature of the game, the Warriors star told reporters in Oakland on Monday .Missouri averages 73 points per game this year which ranks them 162nd in Division 1 college basketball.Louis Cardinals on Sunday at Busch Stadium.
They already have the Flamin' Hot flavor, it's not like they have to develop it.2016: Sanders became one of eight active NFL players with three consecutive 1-yard seasons, totaling 79 catches for 1 yards with five touchdowns…They have 1 face off wins compared to 1 losses, meaning their faceoff win percentage is 53%.He has 3 goals this year with 11 shots on goal, giving him Malik Beasley Jersey a shooting percentage of 27%.In Round 4, as he was nestling his way through McGregor's shield, Mayweather connected with about 60 percent of a serpent-like lead right that drew a roar from the star-studded crowd.
If so, that means only the top seed in the AFC & NFC http://www.goldenstatewarriorsauthenticstore.com/Womens-Mitch-Richmond-Jersey would get a first-round bye, and it would add two extra games — i.e.Behind the arc they shoot 30% which is good for 221st in the nation.The Warriors come into this game with an overall record of http://www.officialnuggetshop.com/authentic-25-malik-beasley-jersey.html 31 and a road record of 15.Goran Dragic averages 17 points per game this season and he sees the court an average of 31 minutes per contest.11 Kansas State, but Iowa State also lost Mitch Richmond Jersey at a bad Texas Tech team and a pretty mediocre Iowa squad.
Miami �?This isn't your grandfather's University of Miami.He averages 1 assists per contest and 6 rebounds per game for Philadelphia.However, I see no way that Murray approaches 100 yards in Seattle.Last year, I saw how Steelers fans took over the city for Jerome Bettis' induction.
Nor should they, because nothing is ever 100 percent perfect, explains interior designer Ana Cummings.The Demon Deacons get an average of 24 first downs per game and they average 44 penalty yards per game via 5 penalties.Also, Robert's proprietary KING College Football Betting System has posted three of four winning seasons and is 122 over the last three years .Moments before, the Vikings had to settle for a 45-yard field goal to with 1 minute, 4 seconds to play in the second quarter to make it a 10-point game because Cousins did not connect on a third-and-6 pass intended for Thielen.
His field goal percentage is 37% for the year while his free throw percentage is 78%.Not only is it unflattering, it's wildly impractical.They looked to keep up that momentum against a new foe, the Wilkes-Barre Scranton Penguins.Francis on Nov.I'll certainly be back.
Brooks remains matter-of-fact about Brown's place in the rotation, but there appears to be an opportunity opening up that had not been there before.He grabs 3 rebounds per game and has 4 assists per contest on the year.

Night Karaoke Bars – An Exciting place for a fun night out
By Luca Jaxon On Jan 27, 2022
If you're interested in trying out a Night Karaoke bar (노래방알바), look no further than Houston. With more than 50 karaoke songs to choose from, this is sure to be a fun night out. The rooms also feature arcade games and great food and drinks. You'll find everything from fried chicken to flatbread pizzas. The ambiance is always lively, and the atmosphere is guaranteed to get your feet moving.
There's no dance floor at Night Karaoke bars, so couples line up at the back and slow-dance to popular songs. The "Boot Scootin' Boogie" is a favorite of middle-aged women, who sing along to it as a ritual. Every night is different, so don't feel pressured to sing a certain song. You can always request a specific song and get the audience to sing along.
Whether you're looking to relive your childhood or are looking for a new way to spend an evening, there's a Night Karaoke bar in your area. There are many different genres to choose from, and you'll be sure to find a song you like. The only problem with this type of nightclub is that you can't always get the singers you want. The audience at a Night Karaoke bar should be diverse and fun.
The music is always different, and there's a wide variety of genres to choose from. For example, the majority of songs are pop songs, but you can also find songs with rock and country themes. The music may be a bit older, but it's still a good choice for a date night. One of the best things about Night Karaoke is that there's no cover charge, and you can sing all night long for as long as you want to.
At the Night Karaoke bar, the music is a riot. There are many singers, but there isn't a dance floor. Instead, couples slow dance in the back of the room. There's no line dancing, but middle-aged women and men line-dance to classic rock songs. The spare room hosts a live karaoke band every first Thursday of the month.
A night at a Night Karaoke bar should be an enjoyable experience. While there are some perks to going to a Karaoke bar, you should know that the crowds are always different. The average person singing a song may be a woman with a heavyset body, a middle-aged man with a thin build, or an elderly man with a deep voice. A karaoke bar's culture is largely dependent on the audience, which will determine how the night will go.
A Night Karaoke bar's crowd will be diverse. There will be a range of age groups and genders. It's worth noticing that there's no dance floor. While you're waiting for a song to sing, you'll be surprised by the variety of songs and styles that people are willing to sing. Depending on the type of music you choose, you might even be able to find the most popular songs in the crowd.
A night at a Night Karaoke bar is always different. Regulars perform their favorite songs. One balding man starts the night singing "Amarillo by Morning" with his partner, and a middle-aged woman lines up to sing "Boot Scootin' Boogie." A balding woman sings a song that she's arranged for line dancing. A silver-haired man gets down and soul-sings his favorite song, Daddy's Hands.
While the majority of karaoke bars offer the same menu and drinks, the songs are often different. The bare floor is typically reserved for line dancing. The music at a Night Karaoke bar isn't the same every night. The audience is as varied as the singers. Some of the most popular songs at the karaoke bar are country-style pop songs, rock songs, and pop-rock covers. A typical evening might feature several bands and a jukebox.
If you're looking for a karaoke bar that caters to the karaoke crowd, Pharaoh Karaoke Bar in Portland offers private karaoke rooms. The bar features a jukebox and a piano. Those who want to sing can also enjoy the music. If you want to have a private party, the Priaoh is a good option.

Mary was only a baby when she became Queen of Scotland. Sadly her father, James V of Scotland, died when Mary was only six days old. In Mary was crowned Queen of Scotland at Stirling Castle. Mary was known as Mary Queen of Scots because she became Queen of Scotland.
(–87). The life of Mary Stuart, more commonly called Mary, Queen of Scots, has been a favorite subject of dramatists and poets. She became the central figure in a complex political drama that resulted in her untimely death. She lived in the turbulent period of the Protestant Reformation, and she was a Roman Catholic.

She was also Protestant, which former supporters of her deceased Catholic sister Mary, deplored. Mary Queen of Scots did not have the power or the grace and charm of Elizabeth. Mary was a schemer who wanted England's throne. She married the heir to the French throne, but he died soon after. In my opinion and looking at things the way people thought back then, Elizabeth was completely justified in having Mary executed. Mary was simply too much of a danger to Elizabeth and her reign. We know, for example, that Mary was actively trying to replace Elizabeth as the Queen of England.

There are about 2,000,000 burglaries in the United States alone each year. That works out to roughly one break-in every six seconds. By the time you finish reading this sentence there will be…yes, chalk it up…another burglary.
Do Not Advertise What Is In Your House. Yes, we know you are proud of your exquisite Fabergé egg collection. Is that an actual 1902 Empire Nephrite? We thought that one was lost forever. What do mean, "how do we know about your fetish for jeweled Russian eggs?" You keep them in a display case by the picture window in your living room. We see them every evening as we walk by with the dog. Do you think a potential burglar is not going to be tempted by that collection?
And by the way, congratulations on your new 84-inch television. It does everything your smartphone does and lifesize and in 3D. While we were reading the specs on the box you left out by the curb with the trash we couldn't help but think you got a "real steal" judging by the sticker price of $18,000. So do not leave the evidence of your big-ticket purchases out waiting for the recycler or you can very well be setting up a real steal inside your house at a future date.
Do Not Announce to the World that No One Is Home. Over the years, most homeowners have gotten the message to not leave newspapers piling up on the front stoop and un-picked up mail overflowing from the box. Many homeowners have even wised up to the practice of putting interior and exterior lights on timers to present the guise of occupancy.
So what happens now that we are in the digital age? Everyone wants to show the world the pictures of themselves snorkeling with the wrasse fish in Wailea Bay on their Hawaiian vacation. In real time. We are doing this right now! Away from our empty house! Make your social media posts judiciously.
The truth of the matter is that most burglaries are not committed by pros. The next important concept is, "Do Not Make It Easy For Would-Be Thieves Who Really Are Not That Talented." Do you know the old joke about what to do when hiking with a group of friends in the woods and you encounter a bear? You do not have to be able to out-run the bear. You only have to be able to outrun at least one person in your group.
Do Not Leave Doors Unlocked. What is the most common modus operandi of the average burglar?
Walking up to a house, knocking on the door, getting no answer and turning the doorknob. If your door doesn't open it will be off to try the same tactic at another house. Just lock your doors.
Do Not Rely on Cheap Locks. Almost as bad as unlocked doors is a flimsy barrier between your cherished possessions and a potential thief. Experienced break-in artists can make short work of standard locks. Paying extra for additional security at the door will pay dividends. Every extra second it takes a would-be burglar to compromise a door lock increases the likelihood the entire attempt will be aborted.
Do Not Leave Ladders in the Yard. You have spent all that good money on fancy locks but left your extension ladder leaning against the back fence. That will work just fine, thank you very much, to get at those unlocked windows on the second floor. Put those handy burglar tools under lock and key.
Keep the Bushes Trimmed Around the House. As long as you are doing your best not to help out the average thief don't provide working cover at doors and windows with large and unruly shrubs that allow intruders to work away from the watchful eyes of neighbors.
Unless It Is Your Scheduled Night for Stargazing Do Not Leave Your Yard Pitch Black. Burglars like nothing better than to slither around in the dark undetected. Don't encourage them.
Do Not Leave Keys Hidden in the Yard. Yes, you thrill at a good game of hide-and-seek and you fancy yourself the best darn hider in the world. Trust us. Burglars who have been at their trade for awhile know all the best hiding places. Make friends with a neighbor and leave a spare key over there.
Counting on Your Barking Dog to Deter Thieves. Look at Snoopy lying on the couch. Is he really going to keep your valuables safe? Really? Maybe you're right. But to be on the safe side, install some good locks and alarms.
Not Shoring Up the Garage Door. The American lust for convenience above all else has given burglars their path of least resistance into most houses. The emergency release lever on an automatic garage door can be triggered by little more than a wire coat hanger in seconds in the hands of a bad guy with a little know-how. Get a key lock for the garage and trade a few moments of inconvenience for some peace of mind.
Being a single person defending a house, you should have this goal in mind: to withstand the attack of 10 armed street-smart looters. I'm saying "street-smart" because they'll probably also have a plan… they may surround your house… or maybe they'll attack at night or when you least expect it… or maybe they'll set your house on fire, etc.
Following these five key principles, you will greatly improve your security and survivability. This is one of the things that I've learned from a well-known army officer vet Steve Walker, for whom I have all the respect in the world. Watch his video and learn some fast-tips about protecting your home in time of war or social chaos.
All good information. Best locks available, not what you think you can afford, are the smartest insurance you can have…and pay for themselves immediately.

Cinnamon & The Pesky Fly
My family and I were eating dinner in the kitchen tonight, when suddenly Cinnamon comes running under the table. She stayed there and didn't move. I thought it was weird because she never does that, ever! She usually comes by me and my sister and mom begging for food, but not this time. She looked scared out of her mind! Then, my sister said that there was a huge fly flying around the kitchen. It was funny because Cinnamon was so afraid of it that she wouldn't budge. She just sat there and moved her head around trying to find it.
Then, a few minutes later I hear my sister saying, "Ow!" and then I started laughing because Cinnamon darted over to my sister's legs and went right underneath them. By then, I was wondering what on earth she was so afraid of? The fly was so small and it was only hovering over us a little, but she still kept worrying about it. I kept telling Cinnamon that its ok, but she was still freaking out. It's funny because the fly doesn't even come near her, it stays up towards the ceiling and flies around, but she still doesn't like them.
I felt bad for Cinnamon, so I called her over to me and the next thing I know she is glued right next to my chair, just sitting there eyeballing that fly and waiting to pounce on it like a lion. It was funny because it was like Cinnamon was hiding underneath the tablecloth to stay away from the fly.
I thought Cinnamon would never move from that spot. I tried everything to reassure her that it was ok, but she still wouldn't move. That all changed though when my mom called out Cinnamon's name from the living room really loud. haha By that time, Cinnamon ran as fast as she could to my mom and she's been sitting there ever since! She was finally happy again getting cuddles from my mom though, even though she was still waiting to get that fly… I wonder if she will ever catch it… I guess that's another story isn't it?

Diego integral in shock Wolfsburg win
Borussia Dortmund's title hopes suffered another blow on Saturday afternoon, with a 3-2 defeat at home to Wolfsburg leaving the defending Bundesliga champions 14 points adrift of league leaders Bayern Munich.
The game started well enough for Dortmund with Marco Reus giving them the lead in the sixth minute, but a red card for Marcel Schmelzer and penalty from Diego, followed by Naldo's volley, turned the game in Wolfsburg's favor.
Although Jakub Blaszczykowski leveled for Jurgen Klopp's men after an hour, Bas Dost netted the winner for the Wolves, who climb seven points clear of the relegation zone as a result.
Despite picking up an ankle injury in training on Friday, Diego was passed fit to play and he set up the first chance of the match for Wolfsburg, but Makoto Hasebe's cross was too powerful for Dost.
Dortmund were then given a free-kick just to the left of the penalty area and Reus stepped up to send his shot into the far corner without the need for a touch from a team-mate as it beat Diego Benaglio.
Dortmund were dominating, but could not find a second goal with Robert Lewandowski and the lively Schmelzer missing their best chances.
Things took a turn for the worse for Schmelzer and Dortmund in the 35th minute when he blocked Dost's shot on the goal line with his hand, according to the referee, who gave a penalty and showed the Dortmund defender the red card.
Diego stepped up to the spot to bring Wolfsburg level.
Five minutes later, Diego turned provider with a free-kick which was met by central defender Naldo on the volley, and he dispatched his shot into the bottom corner of Roman Weidenfeller's goal to turn the game on its head.
The second penalty of the afternoon was awarded in the 61st minute, although Simon Kjaer got away with only a yellow card for fouling Lewandowski inside the penalty area.
His Polish compatriot Blaszczykowski stepped up to the spot to equalize for the Westphalians with half an hour of the game to go.
The 10 men of Dortmund raised the tempo again in search of a winner, but they were caught out in the 73rd minute when Diego threaded a pass through to Dost, who had only Weidenfeller to beat, and he duly obliged to give Wolfsburg the lead once again.
This time, it was too much for the defending champions, who were unable to summon up the energy for a late assault on a point.


A funeral service will be held in New York next week for three girls killed with their grandparents in a Christmas morning house fire in Connecticut.
Dominic Carella, vice president of the Frank Campbell Funeral Home, says a private wake will be held Wednesday at the funeral home in Manhattan.
A funeral service open to the public will be held at 10:30 a.m. Thursday at St. Thomas Episcopal Church in Manhattan for 10-year-old Lily Badger and 7-year-old twins Grace and Sarah Badger. A private service will be held at Woodlawn Cemetery for all five victims.
Carella says funeral plans for the grandparents, Lomer and Pauline Johnson, are still being worked on.
Authorities say embers in a bag of discarded fireplace ashes started the blaze.

Paying no heed to SEBI's rule of having at least one woman director on their boards, India's largest public sector units like ONGC, GAIL (India) Ltd, Indian Oil Corp and MMTC, as well as National Fertilisers, Oriental Bank of Commerce, and Power Finance Corp, are running without any woman directors, even as a year has passed since the rule came into force, and had a deadline of March 31 st 2015.
According to capital markets data provider PRIME Database, about half of the 56 NSE-listed companies, which do not comply with the said rule, are state-owned enterprises.
"Though a bulk of the companies has met the criterion, there are some for whom it does not seem to be on top of their agenda," Pranav Haldea, PRIME Database MD told ET.
It was two years ago that SEBI had asked all listed firms to have at least one woman director on their boards from April 1, 2015, so that gender-diversity in boardrooms can be assured.
When enquired by ET, GAIL said that it is under the administrative control of the Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas and its "directors are nominated/appointed by the Government of India."

1 Summary Report Use of Police dog during arrests in Auckland INTRODUCTION 1. On 23 August 2013, following the pursuit of a stolen car in West Auckland, Police arrested two men, Mr X and Mr Z, who had fled from the vehicle. A Police dog was used during both arrests. 2. Both Mr X and Mr Z claim that they had surrendered before the Police dog handler deployed his dog. 3. In addition, two officers who witnessed Mr Z s arrest reported that they believed the use of the Police dog was unnecessary and excessive. 4. The Police notified the Independent Police Conduct Authority of the incident, and the Authority conducted an independent investigation. This report sets out the results of that investigation and the Authority s findings. BACKGROUND 5. At about 12.40am on 23 August 2013, Waitakere Police observed a Subaru, containing three occupants, acting suspiciously in the New Lynn area. After checking the Subaru s registration it was determined that it had been reported stolen the previous day. Police signalled the driver of the Subaru to stop, but he failed to do so. A pursuit was commenced. The pursuit lasted about three minutes before it was abandoned in Cliff View Drive, Green Bay. 6. Following abandonment, several Police units began to search the surrounding area in an attempt to locate the Subaru and its occupants. The Police helicopter, Eagle, was also involved in the search. 7. At about 1am Eagle located the Subaru parked in a driveway in Harrybrook Road, Green Bay. Officer A, a dog handler who had been dispatched to the area to assist in locating the Subaru s occupants, approached the vehicle and found it empty.

The Moses H. Grinnell was a 19th-century pilot boat built in 1850 for the New York maritime pilots. She was designed by the yacht designer George Steers. The Grinnell was the first pilot boat to feature a fully developed concave clipper-bow, which was to become the New York schooner-rigged pilot boat's trade mark. This new design was the basis for the celebrated yacht America.

Construction and service

Moses H. Grinnell, a native of New Bedford, Massachusetts, commissioned George Steers to design a vessel for use as a pilot-boat and as a yacht for pleasure trips. Grinnell was a partner with his brother, Joseph Grinnell, in the shipping firm Grinnell, Minturn & Co. The Grinnell was built in 1850 for the New York pilots and owned by George W. Blunt of New York.

There is a Steers' half-model of the Grinnell is in the Mariners' Museum and Park at Newport News, Virginia, and the boat's profile in John Willis Griffiths Treatise on the Theory and Practice of Shipbuilding.

The Grinnell was the first sailing vessel to have the very long, sharp, and concave clipper-bow that became the prototype for the famous racing yacht, America.

On May 2, 1851, the Grinnell, was in a race with the yacht Cornelia for a purse of $1,000. They started at Stapleton Dock, Staten Island, passed the Sandy Hook point, around the Sandy Hook lightship and back to Stapleton Dock. The Grinnell was the winner.

In August 1852, William Smith and Isaac Gaynor of the pilot boat Moses H. Grinnell were picked up by the schooner Fremont, after being lost in a fog, when putting a pilot on board the ship George Canning.

In 1860, the Moses H. Grinnell was one of the twenty-one New York pilot boats. The boat number "1" was painted as a large number on her mainsail, that identified the boat as belonging to the Sandy Hook Pilots. On October 10, 1860, New York Sandy Hook Pilot Thomas Morley, of the pilot boat Moses H. Grinnell, No. 1, signed a statement along with other pilots, that he was satisfied with the representation he had received from the New York Board of Commissioners of Pilots.

American civil war

In late October, 1863, during the American Civil War, the seven year old Grinnell, No. 1, was run down in the dark by the United States supply steamer Union on the Outer Middle Ground in Long Island Sound. The Grinnell carried no boat light when struck by the Union. No one was injured in the incident.

On August 11, 1864, the Grinnell reported that they saw a vessel burning off Montauk, New York. The pilots believed that the CSS Tallahassee was working her way toward Nantucket Shoals.

In 1871, the Grinnell collided with two barques near The Battery and was damaged, ran ashore and filled with water.

The Record of American and Foreign Shipping from 1876 to 1879, lists the Grinnell as still being owned by the New York pilots. Captain J. B. Lockman was the master.

Boston pilots
The Record of American and Foreign Shipping from 1881 to 1882, lists the Grinnell as being owned by the Boston pilots with Captain H. L. Gurney as the master.

Pensacola, Florida
On October 24, 1882, the Grinnell, was sold to the Pensacola, Florida pilots for $4,500. This was the third pilot-boat that was purchased from the Boston pilots. She was listed as No. 9, of the Boston fleet.

The Record of American and Foreign Shipping from 1883 to 1900, lists the Grinnell registered with Captain William Bazzell and her owner was Charles McKenzie Oerting & Co. Her home port was Pensacola, Florida.

The Pensacola News, reported that on May 16, 1896, the pilot boat Moses H. Grinnell, was for sale at a sacrifice by the Pensacola Pilot's Association. The reason for sale was that the association had a steam pilot boat.

End of service

The Bar Pilot's Association sold the Moses H. Grinnell on August 15, 1914 to British subjects from Montego Bay, Jamaica. The sale was confirmed in a letter from the US Vice-consul at Kingston, Jamaica, on October 21, 1914.

tinygold was an artist-run project that curated the annual program 'Tales from the Cold Ghost' from 2007-2009. Our aim was to utilise distressed and empty spaces to showcase the works of local emerging artists, and in the third year we expanded to conduct professional development programs such as artist talks, arts industry consultations, panels, fashion shows, publications and musical performances that championed local talent.
tinygold began as a proactive response towards the shared frustration felt by many Gold Coast artists and university students regarding lack of space and resources. The show's name Tales from the Cold Ghost (TFCG) became an action, giving local emerging artists the platform to tell stories and ideas through art, and to showcase them in our own backyard – a city that was perceived as a cultural-ghost town. More.
Mariam and Megan decided to coffin tinygold in 2009 so they could focus on full-time arts and curating projects. Thank you for your interest and continued support!To receive free backcopies of our catalogues and invites please email tinygoldATgmail.com or on our Facebook.
tinygold was a non profit artist-run initiative that staged annual exhibitions in 2007-2009 showcasing emerging Queensland artists. We provide platforms for work creation and exposure for artists, and aimed to promote Australia's Gold Coast as a destination for the arts.


TL: Dormston is the location of the original Bag End. J.R.R. Tolkien stayed here in 1923, and it became the inspiration for Bag End in The Hobbit. Is there anything of it left today?AHM: Yes, it's still there. From aerial photos you can see that the house substantially the same as it was in the 1920s. Bag End is owned by the Hall Jones family, and the impression I get is that they want nothing to do with the Tolkien connection. In my book I stress the point that I think this desire for privacy is perfectly natural and to be respected. As a consequence, I haven't done any snooping, although when the leaves are off the trees you can catch a glimpse of the house from the road.
TL: In a letter to K Jackson Esq (1968) we can read Tolkien tell about Bag End:"It was the local name for my aunt's [Jane Neave] farm in Worcestershire, which was at the end of a lane leading to it and no further..." but in Tolkien's books it was the starting point of two tales, was this a symbolic move by Tolkien because it had inspired him so much?
AHM: Certainly symbolic. As the starting place and the terminus of both adventures, Tolkien need something redolent of ordinary everyday life. It's a classic feature of this kind of mythical adventure to take the hero out of his or her humdrum setting and set them on the path to extraordinary adventure. When Tolkien adopted the name Bag End, with its very ordinary homely associations, I'm sure he had this in mind. But apart from the name, I do believe that he may have seen Bag End as representing an archetypal kind of Englishness, and, what is more, one closely associated with his own Suffield family roots. When he visited for the first time, he must have felt that the Suffield family myth had eventually become real. All of them felt that rural Worcestershire was where they belonged.TL: In the interview I conducted with you about Tolkien's Gedling (here) you talked about "lots of unpublished photographicmaterial from the period", did you manage to find this material?
TL: A few hundred yards from Bag End Farm stands (stood) a magnificent old oak.Do you think this was Tolkien's inspiration for Bilbo's party tree?
AHM: Yes, I've seen the picture of the Heart of England web site. Why not? We know Tolkien was a tree fanatic and this one may have caught his attention. Jane Neave mentions the magnificent elm trees around the farm and just to the north of the farm is Roundhill Wood, a survival of the ancient Feckenham Forest. Bag End would have been paradise for the tree-lover.TL: Are there any other elements in the area of Bag End that were used as inspiration by J.R.R. Tolkien for his mythology?
AHM: Facts concerning Tolkien and Bag End are very thin on the ground. Apart from two well documented visits, one in 1923 and the other with his family later in the decade (post Christopher, pre-Priscilla) we know nothing. There may have been only one Tolkien family visit to Bag End as Jane's idea of domestic arrangements may have been rather different from Edith's. I have no firm evidence for this –only hearsay- but I intuit that there may have been some slight friction between Jane and Edith, which would not have been unusual in any family setting between two powerful characters with different priorities and emotional claims on the author. I have to come clean and say that I have no photos of Tolkien at Bag End. Neither did I see any of him at Bag End in the Hilary material, although there were several at Blackminster. However, as these visits coincide with the time when Tolkien was formulating the stories that found their way into The Hobbit, I'm sure he had an image of the place in his mind as well as the name. He almost certainly discussed the name" Bag End" with Jane, who changed the name of the farm back from Dormston Manor to its earthy English alternative. It's impossible to know which name goes back furthest in history; all we know is that Jane found the name Bag End in the deeds of the house and it appealed to her more than Dormston Manor. Even now the older residents of Dormston whom I interviewed insist that Bag End is the proper name and you can see why – it's earthy, slightly humorous and unpretentious. It's interesting that Jane also changed the name of Church Farm to Phoenix Farm. Names were clearly important to her. This is the kind of thing that would have appealed to Tolkien. In general terms, it seems to me that Tolkien's visits to Jane always held the possibility of sparking off some interesting ideas. This is true of the 1911 Swiss adventure and his 1914 visit to Phoenix Farm, and, for all I know, his visits to Jane at St Andrews may well have provided him with some inspiration. Some people claim to have detected a Scottish influence in his landscapes.TL: On the whole there has not been a lot of information available on Bag End and possibly a lot of wrong assumptions where made as well, can we see you book as the definitive guide to Bag End?
AHM: I hope so. What I hope I have succeeded in with both books is combining the Tolkien interest with some substantial local history research, and on this second point, I can't see anyone else taking it further. As with Phoenix Farm in Gedling, most biographers mention the place in passing, for understandable reasons. This hasn't stopped some of them making mistakes – one major biographer, for example, describes the place as a "cottage". It's true that Jane Neave did live in a nearby cottage from 1936/7, but Bag End is a substantial Elizabethan manor house. This kind of mistake is a symptom of the kind of Tolkien biography that depends on a simple rehash of previous work and there's plenty of that about. I can at least claim that my two books are largely based on original historical and biographical research. I may not always be right, but at least I am not repeating the mistakes of other writers.TL: Your last book was proof read by Wayne Hammond and Christina Scull, did they aid you this time around?
AHM: Not this time. They are extraordinarily kind and generous people, but there are limits to the amount you can presume on other people's time. We did exchange some emails on the subject, but they didn't edit it in the way they did with Tolkien's Gedling. I hope I gave them a few useful titbits for their compendious guides.TL: We all know a book about Tolkien's brother Hilary is being made. Did you discover anything about him?
AHM: I was privileged to see some of this material but clearly it would not have been ethical to make use of it in my book. However, the one general impression I gained from what I saw of this material and from talking to other people on the subject of Hilary, was that he had a rather hard time of it making ends meet. Jane helped him out, and possibly helped him to buy the farm at Blackminster, but it was not a great success. I think Jane blamed herself for encouraging Hilary to go into horticulture when he could have had a steady job with rich Uncle Walter. TL: Now that you have written Bag End can we expect a similar project in the future? Or is this your last book on Tolkien?


The conditions underfoot on Saturday were not great for running rugby and, consequently, it was not a high scoring game. Most of the first half was played in the middle of the field, with neither team able to make much ground. Watsonians did make a few breaks, but these were well contained by us, with one exception - Watsonians' try providing the only points of the first half.
It had been a strong half for us defensively, but our attacking gears kicked in after the break, with three tries to just one more from the away side. With the score set at 19-14 in our favour, the last five minutes were extremely tense, as Watsonians played phase after phase on our line. With hearts in mouths, the Accies' crowd could hardly bear to watch, but our defence was phenomenal, keeping out every attack against all the odds. Finally, Watsonians fumbled the ball and we kicked it out for our second win of the season.
It was a sweet victory for squad and supporters alike, after a season of great effort but little reward, made all the sweeter for being against a Super 6 Club.
We now have a break from league rugby until 2 March (when we play Currie at Malleny Park) but please note we now have a friendly against Selkirk on Saturday 16 February - 15:00 kick off at Raeburn Place.
There were no games for the 2nd or 3rd XVs on Saturday.
