Description:
Brainwave entrainment is any practice that aims to cause brainwave frequency to fall into step with
a periodic stimulus havinga frequency corresponding to the intended brain-state (for example, to
induce sleep). It depends upon a "frequency following" response,a naturally occurring phenomenon
where the human brain has a tendency to change its dominant EEG frequency towards the frequency of
adominant external stimulus. Entrainment is a program for the iPhone/iPod Touch that allows you to
explore these techniques, using one of the twenty built in programs, or, best of all, editing and
creating your own (allowing you to experiment to determine which techniques works the best for
you). Includes:- Support for multiple entrainment techniques, including Binaural Beats, Monaural
Beats, Isochronic Tones/Noise, and Panning Tones/Noise, as well as background "synthetic surf".-
Includes both stereo (headphone) effects as well as monaural effects not requiring headphones.-
Programs can be either a simple, single setting, or change over time (changing volume, pitch,
"beat", balance).- Support for up to six separate tracks in a program. Don't be stuck following
programs that somebody else creates - explore your own!

Nat Rev Neuroscibr/br/Advances in cognitive neuroscience offer us new ways to understand the
symptoms of mental illness by uniting basic neurochemical and neurophysiological observations with
the conscious experiences that characterize these symptoms. Cognitive theories about the positive
symptoms of schizophrenia - hallucinations and delusions - have tended to treat perception and
belief formation as distinct processes. However, recent advances in computational neuroscience have
led us to consider the unusual perceptual experiences of patients and their sometimes bizarre
beliefs as part of the same core abnormality - a disturbance in error-dependent updating of
inferences and beliefs about the world. We suggest that it is possible to understand these symptoms
in terms of a disturbed hierarchical Bayesian framework, without recourse to separate
considerations of experience and belief.br/br/post to: a href =

pstrong1901: /strongAnimation pioneer Walt Disney and nuclear physicist Werner Heisenberg are born.
So, if you've ever thought the Uncertainty Principle was a bit goofy, you may be onto something.
/pp Disney was born in Chicago, but spent much of his childhood on a Missouri farm. He sold his
first sketches to neighbors at age 7. Rejected for military service because he was too young, he
drove a Red Cross ambulance at the end of World War I. He covered the entire vehicle with cartoons.
/pp Disney went to work after the war as an advertising artist in Kansas City and sold his first
animated cartoons. He went to a
href="http://www.norsknettskole.no/fag/ressurser/itstud/fuv/gunnargrodal/bio.htm"Hollywood/a and
partnered with his brother Roy in 1923. /pp Mickey Mouse debuted to the public in the first
sound-synch cartoon, citeSteamboat Willie/cite in 1928. /pp Disney added Technicolor to animation
the 1932 Silly Symphonies cartoon citeFlowers and Trees/cite. This first full-color animated
cartoon mdash; and first film of any kind to use the new three-color Technicolor process mdash; won
Disney his first of 32 Academy Awards. The 1937 cartoon citeThe Old Mill/cite was the first short
subject to use the multiplane camera technique, with foreground, mid-ground and background on
separate animation cels at different distances from the camera. /pp Disney's pioneering continued.
1937's citeSnow White and the Seven Dwarfs/cite was the first full-length animated musical feature
mdash; produced at the outrageous cost of $1.5 million ($22.6 million in today's money). /pp In
1940, citeFantasia/cite combined some live action with animation, a process Disney had been working
on since his Kansas City days. He used it extensively in citeThe Three Caballeros/cite, citeSong of
the South/cite and citeMary Poppins/cite. /pp Disney introduced time-lapse film photography to a
wide public with films like citeThe Living Desert/cite and others in his award-winning True-Life
Adventure series. Disney also produced pioneering TV programs in black-and-white and then color.
/pp Southern California's Disneyland, opened in 1955, led the shift from generic amusement parks to
theme parks. It included a futuristic sci-fi Tomorrowland. Disney conceived EPCOT, the Experimental
Prototype Community of Tomorrow near Florida's Disney World, as a showcase for applying technology
to improving people's lives. It was under construction when Disney died Dec. 15, 1966, at age 65./p
p- - -/p pHeisenberg was born the same day as Disney, in Würzburg, Germany. He began playing
the piano early, mastering difficult pieces by age 13. He taught himself calculus and then worked
on a farm for three summers to earn tuition to study physics at the University of Munich. /pp He
studied with Arthur Sommerfield, Max Born and James Franck and earned a doctorate in 1923, the year
Disney went to Hollywood. a
href="http://nobelprize.org/nobel_prizes/physics/laureates/1932/heisenberg-bio.html"Heisenberg/a
went to Copenhagen to study under Niels Bohr. /pp Heisenberg described a method for calculating the
energy levels of "a href="http://www.notablebiographies.com/He-Ho/Heisenberg-Werner.html"atomic
oscillators/a" in a famous paper, "On Quantum Mechanical Interpretation of Kinematic and Mechanical
Relations." It brought him immediate fame. /pp A second paper, "On the Visualizable Content of
Quantum Theoretical Kinematics and Mechanics," explained his famous Uncertainty Principle: It is
impossible to specify both the exact position and exact momentum of a subatomic particle at the
same time. /p p- - -/p pFor his contributions to quantum mechanics, Heisenberg received the Nobel
Prize for Physics at age 31. It was 1932, the same year Disney won his first Oscar. /pp During
World War II, while Disney was making military-training and civilian-propaganda films for the U.S.
war effort, Heisenberg was director of Germany's uranium project working on an atomic bomb. He was
arrested in April 1945 and remained imprisoned in England until the summer of 1946. /pp After the
war, Heisenberg worked on a unified theory of fundamental particles and on plasma physics and
thermonuclear processes. He was director of the Max Planck Institute and headed a program to invite
visiting scientists to work in Germany. /ppHeisenberg retired in 1970 and died Feb. 1, 1976, nine
years after Disney. /pp emSource: Norsknettskole, Nobel Lectures, Notable Biographies/em /pbr

I'm hoping that Ray
Stevenson will dominate the screen completely as Frank Castle, setting wrongs to right and
creating utter mayhem, in Lexi Alexander's Punisher: War Zone, which
opens wide tomorrow. I loved Stevenson as Titus Pullo in HBO's Rome, an atypical brute
with a little boy's heart and a joyous young man's full-bodied embrace of life. At the very
least, he should erase memories of Thomas Jane, who glowered and scowled without ever embodying
the role in 2004's The Punisher.
With so many sequels being made, it's inevitable that some actors will not reprise their original
role. (Just think of all the fuss kicked up by Don Cheadle taking over the part of War Machine
from Terence Howard, in the Iron Man sequel.) Whether it's death, Broadway, pregnancy,
caring for a family member, money, or the realization that the sequel will suck, sequel
replacement actors face the daunting task of replacing a familiar face in the role of a beloved
character.
History has not been kind, and while it would be easier to list the worst, we thought we'd be
positive and list the best sequel replacement actors. (James Bond and superheroes need a separate
list.) We're also noting the role and the actor that was replaced.
Brian Cox played the flesh-hungry Dr. Lecter in Michael Mann's Manhunter (1986)
effectively, but Hopkins added a whole new layer when he took over the role five years later in
The Silence of
the Lambs. Hopkins pushed Lecter right to the edge of camp ("fava beans and a nice
kee-anti") yet kept him firmly rooted at the edge of humanity with his probing eyes and
ultra-controlled body language.
The Book of Eli had me halfway when they cast
Gary Oldman -- but they got a guaranteed ticket sale from me when they cast Ray
Stevenson. I'm disappointed that he's playing another badass assassin type, but hey, at least
I'll believe he could kick Denzel Washington's ass.
The plot description has been incredibly dry thus far -- a man named Eli protects a book that may
be humanity's salvation, Oldman is the despotic mayor of a struggling town, Mila Kunis is an
assassin sent to kill Eli, but who ends up joining him. But we have a little more,
courtesy of its newest cast member. Stevenson sat
down with
Reelz Channel, and shed a little more light on the bleak future this film will inhabit. "The
world in which it is set is completely uncompromising. The most precious commodity is actually
water, because virtually all of the water is poison, toxic -- whether it's due to eruptions from
the earth or the poisons in the sky. These very basic things are what drives human nature down to
almost animalistic qualities. But what still separates us from the animals?"
Hmmm. Shades of Waterworld, a threat that looms over every post-apocalyptic film not
titled The Road. There's never an in between when it comes to this genre ... you either
end up with something cool and Max Maxish, or you end up with The Postman. Let's keep
hoping for the best, though. The film begins shooting in February, and has a release date of
January 15, 2010.

Sorry about the long silence folks. I know most of you must be wondering what's going on these days
and wondering where has everyone gone. Some of you already know I've been busy with moving from the
US to the UK and this has kept me quite busy with sorting out visas and then with the actual move.
Of course, once I made it, I was far from being able to put much time aside to be active again. I
had a marriage to prepare for!
Well, I'm happy to say that I am now married to a certain lady some of you may know as Raefraction.
She is the sister of refraction, and so this now makes me his brother in law. Odd as it may seem,
PCSX2 became a gateway to something more than I could have ever imagined. It's led me to my
beautiful wife and great new family. I'm not sure if this is a first for emulation, but I'm sure
anyone would be hard pressed to find another example quite like this.
All that said, I'm working my way towards getting back into the swing of things. I've still got
just a few more quirks to work out, but the bulk of it is done. I'm also planning on egging on my
new brother in law to get back into this with me as well. Give us just a bit more time, and I'll
see what I can do. Thanks for bearing with us while things have been busy in our every day
lives.
For those interested, you can see pictures from the wedding (which include myself, refraction,
Raefraction and family) at General
Emulation.
Also there is a video I've uploaded to youtube of the ceremony. Keep in mind that due to their 10
minute limits for videos, I've had to separate it into two parts, which you can view in the above
post as well. Thanks again, and I'll be back soon. http://www.pcsx2.net/
Google Friend Connect,
the company’s identity management offering for developers, is now available for anyone to
signup without waiting to be whitelisted. Similar to Facebook Connect and MySpace Data
Availability, the basic premise is that you can login with your Google (or Yahoo, AIM, OpenID)
credentials on third-party applications without signing up for a separate account.
You can see this in action right here on the sidebar of Mashable, where you can join our
community using your Google credentials. You can also invite other people to join from within the
application, either by emailing them (you’ll see a list of your Google contacts) or sharing
the links on MySpace or Facebook.
Another example implementation is Qloud, the
music discovery service, where you can now sign-in using your Google account, and then be able to
save playlists and see which of your friends are already users. Additionally, part of what Google
wants to do is allow for simple implementations where webmasters can simply copy and paste code
for various Google Gadgets – like comments or reviews – to
enable social features.
More details about Friend Connect are available in the demo below:

We're all hungry for our release units, and we all know everyone is dieing for more info and news,
and we all know the boys are too busy to fill our demands But there are a few of us devkit lads on
board now, so likely some more info will get leaked.
This is unofficial; I'm not speaking for the devs, and may make errors. I'm not intending to step
on the toes of any of the very fine devs for any of the devices (disclosure, I've got dev units of
all of them!). Craigs statement about saying something that is true for only 3 days being bandied
about for 3 months is ever so true It is also tough to post performance numbers without people
thinking its a diss to the non-topmost machine. I don't want to say that, since there are other
factors (price, portability, screen preferences, add-ons, support, controls, weight, and so
on.)
You might recall my past thread http://www.gp32x.com/board/index.php...opic=44373&hl= comparing gp2x to GP2x Wiz.
See that for some commentary on what is accurate or inaccurate for those tests (ie: optimized code
on gp2 versus unoptimized code on the Wiz, including SDL versus framebuffer, meaning the Wiz
numbers are artificially lower and the gp2x ones are pretty high, so the Wiz should actually
perform higher in relation to the gp2x than I showed.) Defining a 'fair' benchmark is hard since
everyone has a different idea (all running at their best or worst? the type of test.. be it math,
graphics, bus intensive .. it is easy to have a test that hits a weakness in one but a strenght in
another, and is that a fair thing (typical use) or a cheat (atypical use)? Hard questions.)
Suffice to say my number is a _SINGLE_ (yet repeatable) test; a good benchmark is comprised of many
benchmark tests so you can get a good picture from many perspectives.. not just a 'throwing this
out there' number.
Still, it is a pretty telling number sometimes as well!
All that said..
Given OutcaST (an emu for which many of you have seen and used for some 6+ years from me in various
forms), in a emulated CPU-torture test. (ie: Atari ST sitting at the GEM desktop with a stock TOS
image will be in a tight CPU grind loop.) Doesn't really hit the ST's graphic system hard or the
like, but the ST wasn't really a complex machine for graphics anyway. So it tests the emulation
pretty well, in a situation that makes the mu perform worse than average. (ie: If it normally woudl
run 60fps for a game, it'd run this GEM situation at 40-45fps at a guess.) Its also easy to
auto-boot into, so no keyboard or audio or the like making the test more situational.. its pure out
emulation with the machine not even trying to play audio.
GP2x Wiz dev unit (not final hardware but pretty close); The code is on GPH slow software only SDL.
(no acceleration.) 533MHz.
Pandora Mk2 (version 1.1) devboard; 500MHz. Notaz quick SDL port using framebuffer. ie: Not
optimized, but I think its prolly better than the GPH version on the Wiz. (GPH stuff tends to be
slower for some reason, perhaps they don't compile with optimizatoins on in the compiler, or add
debugging stuff, or the mouse support is in the way, or something.)
Sony PSP original FAT version. Not optimized for multi-cpu core, not really using the separate GPU
for anything in this test. (ie: alpha blendsing UIs and such are in the code, but not during this
test.) Essentially the PSP is chugging along at 333MHz if memory serves.. I don't recall if I'm
clocking down or not in this case .. didn't loo back at the code to see.
Latest version of Outcast fro mthe gp2x, converted crappily to SDL on the non-F100 machines.
GP2x 49fps
GP2x Wiz 70fps
Pandora dev board mk2 180fps
Sony PSP 53fps
During actual game emulation the numbers are all higher by about 20-25%, but thats out of scope for
this.
It is hard to explain the pandora being so far out in front of the others; my guess is the less
congested bus, the processor being a multigenerational gap (the Pandora CPU is a far far newer
design than in the GP2x), and the big cache on the CPU in the pandora.
Note my comments above; the 70 versus 49 (Wiz to gp2x) may not seem so impressive in relation to
the pandora, but going back to the origiunal post I was pretty impressed. The Wiz _IS_ a snappy
beasty (and this is a bit of a torture test, not a typical emu gameplay test!), so it is a very
exciting device.

The MSI Wind has certainly garnered a sizable
following, but that's not to say it isn't without its share of problems, and the single, somewhat
awkward trackpad button has proven to be a point of contention for many. One enterprising
individual has now gone some way towards fixing that, however, with little more than a BIC pen and
an Exacto knife. As you can see above, the pen supplies the springs that adds a bit more
responsiveness to the now separate buttons, while the knife is used for some cutting that
apparently has to be done just right. If you're looking to take things one step further,
another MSI Wind forum user also recently discovered that you can order a replacement Synaptics
touchpad from none other than ASUS itself which, as most Wind users are no doubt aware, is
considered to be far superior to the Sentilic
touchpad now included on the netbook. It apparently takes a bit of work to get it swapped in,
but most anyone with a bit of modding skill should be able to handle it and, best of all, it only
costs $8 (plus $5 shipping).

I was just wondering. Am i the only person that sees a lot of confusion due to geographical
differences? I personally believe that many of these forums could be rendered more effective by way
of some separate forums. Like there could be a sections such as Euro, American, Aussie......and so
on. Then still have a general forum where everyone can mix and still generate useful intel, ideas,
and convo. Anyone else think it would just be easier to look what your finding for if there was a
system of this kind?
Velocity is a Java-based template engine. It permits anyone to use the simple yet powerful template
language to reference objects defined in Java code. When Velocity is used for Web development, Web
designers can work in parallel with Java programmers to develop Web sites according to the
Model-View-Controller (MVC) model, meaning that Web page designers can focus solely on creating a
site that looks good, and programmers can focus solely on writing top-notch code. Velocity
separates Java code from the Web pages, making the web site more maintainable over the long run and
providing a viable alternative to Java Server Pages (JSPs) or PHP. Velocity also provides template
services for the Turbine Web application framework, making a template service that allows Web
applications to be developed according to a true MVC model. hr / strongLicense:/strong The Apache
License 2.0 hr / strongChanges:/strongbr / New directives: #evaluate, #define, and #break Vararg
method support. List methods can be called on arrays. Major performance enhancements (both memory
and speed). A new strict reference mode. Many other changes. pa

Portable Audio Device Concept" src="http://www.ubergizmo.com/photos/2008/12/juke-brick.jpg"
border="0" //centerbr / pThe JukeBrick looks set to revolutionize the world of portable music -
only if it were to be materialized from a conceptual existence, that is. This is not only a
portable audio player, it also doubles up as a holder and performer as well. Whenever JukeBricks
congregate, they become separate performers, and you are able to listen to individual instruments
or vocals where the precise sound sources can be identified thanks to Music 2.0 technology.
Connecting at least two JukeBricks beside each other will be able to extend the screen size, and
with speakers added, you can 3-way or even 4-way channel surround sound speakers. Hopefully these
will be cheap enough if they were to be manufactured - it would be nice to see the iPod get some
sort of competition./p pPermalink: a
