  2. I did a Beowulf Admin course a couple of years ago and they showed an example of benchmarking the cluster usingb PVMPOV. It was quite a good visual example of the difference between running on 1 cpu or 4,8,16 cpu's. I have access to a 56 node beowulf cluster but don't have enough time to play on it. Although if I wanted real power I ould use our NEC SX6 Super Computer. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- If you think my attitude stinks you should smell my fingers
  3. (what bird has jet engines ?) http://www.ananova.com/news/story/sm_1090900.html A Swiss airline pilot has become the first man to fly horizontally thanks to two jet engines strapped to stubby wings. Rocket man Yves Rossy reached a speed of 112mph during the four minutes he spent hurtling through the Alps. His invention took five years to perfect. Rossy, 45, told the Daily Mirror: "It was absolutely fantastic - freedom in three dimensions. I felt like a bird." Attached to his three-metre wide, 40kg carbon wings, he launched himself from a plane high above Bex in Western Switzerland, leaving a spectacular vapour trail before landing by parachute. With his next prototype, Rossy hopes to be able to launch from the ground. And he believes his bizarre contraption has bags of potential - especially for Hollywood. "It would be a great device for James Bond so he can go behind enemy lines," he said. Rossy has already claimed a place in the record books by becoming the first to windsurf off a hot air balloon. I hope that there is video of this somewhere ---------------------------------------------------------------------- If you think my attitude stinks you should smell my fingers

  14. And it's not going to be any nicer this weekend either. Showers forcast for most the weekend. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- If you think my attitude stinks you should smell my fingers
  15. The option would be to find another job then tell current boss to go fuck himself with his "Investors In People Award" then tell new employer nothing about your weekend activities. I only mention this as I don't think you can really trust this company, and I wouldn't like to work under a condition that if I get injured then I will get sacked. P.S. if your company doesn't have an IIP award then I can lend you the one we have here.

  21. I think there are a lot more serious crimes that the police should be concentrating on rather than being fashion police. fashions will change and the youth will probably start wearing something else in a few month and that trying to enforce a clothing policy is a waste of time. We were all young once and many of us probably wore stuff that makes us cringe now as adults. Will we keep having to amend the law if fashion changes or should we be a bit more tolerant in what people wear. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- If you think my attitude stinks you should smell my fingers
  22. "Never could any increase of comfort or security be a sufficient good to be bought at the price of liberty." - Hilaire Belloc, English writer & M.P. (1870-1953) Maybe he would have had a different opinion if he lived during a time of terrorist attacks and a booming illicit drug activity, especially if he had the means to combat these two evils. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- If you think my attitude stinks you should smell my fingers
