...Pride goes before a fall This proverb is coined from the well known story entitled, “The Hare and die Tortoise,” from Aesop’s fables. We all remember having read it during our kindergarten days. The hare always quick on his feet challenged a tortoise to a running race! The tortoise who knew that, being a slow animal he was no match for the hare. Yet he accepted the challenge. On the day of the race all the animals assembled at one place and die race commenced. Alas! Like a lightning the hare sprinted across and disappeared from sight. But poor tortoise walked slowly, as usual. The haughty hare, which had gone too far away, paused under a tree. He knew that it would take a long time for the tortoise to reach him. So he stretched and slept. How long he slept, he never knew. Meanwhile, the tortoise came there, saw the hare sleeping and went ahead quietly and reached die winning post, giving a crushing defeat to the hare! This was a lesson not only to die hare, but to everyone who feels too proud and underestimates the others. No matter whatever one’s capacity is, one should not feel proud of it. To cite another example, we have all seen the English movie, ‘Titanic.’ One of the main reasons that the ship sank was the overconfidence of the captain and the ship’s crew. They underestimated what harm an iceberg could do to such a mighty ship of theirs. Hence, the overconfidence broke the ship and sank it, drowning many hundreds of passengers. People say that even a watch that stopped...

...scene where Preach hides from some hoodlums in an bathroom that is occupied. There's also romance in the film, as Preach attempts to woo classy beauty Brenda; the two even lose their virginity together in a truly tasteful scene. The movie ends in tragedy, and since the characters have depth, we feel the loss. “Cooley High” set the standard for African-American film excellence when it was made. This film plays on various emotions, and you definitely feel for all of the characters. Sure, some of the acting is a little wooden, but fortunately, those parts aren't pivotal. The music is sensational, with classic songs from Motown and the tearjerker hit single, sang by then Motown’s newest recording artist, G.C. Cameron “ Its So Hard to Say Goodbye to Yesterday”, which was later released in 1991 by the group Boys II Men, in honor of the movie. Even though “Cooley High” may not have inspirational or depict a positive role model, it’s a part of my life that brings back memories of just having fun and “obeying no laws expect...

Or, maybe, you have come across the optimized example floating-point FFT for this processor and would like to understand how it works and what the author had in mind when writing it. This application note tries to answer both questions by going through that FFT example and all its levels of optimization in detail. This example can be followed in developing other algorithms and code optimized for the ADSPTS201S processor. Generally, most algorithms have several levels of optimization, all of which are discussed in detail in this note. The first and most straightforward level of optimization is paralleling of instructions, as the processor architecture will allow. This is simple and boring. The second level of optimization is loop unrolling and software pipelining to achieve maximum parallelism and to avoid pipeline stalls. Although more complex than the simple parallelism of level one, this can be done in prescribed steps without good understanding...

...Process Layout Evaluation Load X Distance Analysis In the given layout movements occur between the departments in two ways namely forward and backward. It is important to ensure: (1) minimum travel, and (2) zero or minimum backward movement between the departments to minimize accidents and result in faster movements. Please note that transportation of material or goods and movement of people doesn't add any value but add cost. Thus it is necessary that such movements are reduced or completely eliminated. In this regard the overall objective of the layout is to minimize the total distance traveled by the materials or goods. Since the weight as well the distance matter, the objective is to minimize the total load distance. The load distance is calculated as load multiplied by the distance over which the load moves within a given layout. Here it is always assumed that the distance is measured along rectilinear path, that is, movement is only along straight paths and no diagonal movements are allowed. The layout refers to a series of departments located in different rooms with rectangular or square shaped boundaries and the distance is always measured from centre of one room to centre of another room. Two departments that are next to each other will be called as “adjacent” and otherwise “nonadjacent”. Layout problems generally involve developing an initial layout and later improving the configuration to minimize the total load distance value. These problems can be solved by: 1) Exhaustive...

...Do No tC op yo rP os t 9-604-081 REV: SEPTEMBER 6, 2007 ANDREW MCAFEE VINCENT DESSAIN ANDERS SJÖMAN Zara: IT for Fast Fashion On a beautiful August night in 2003, Xan Salgado Badás and Bruno Sánchez Ocampo settled into seats at their favorite tapas bar in the Spanish city of La Coruña, ordered pulpo gallego (octopus Galician style), and resumed their argument. Salgado was the head of IT for Inditex, a multinational clothing retailer and manufacturer headquartered in La Coruña (see Exhibit 1 for a map). He was Sánchez’s boss, although the two men had worked together for so long that their formal reporting relationship mattered little. It certainly did not keep Sánchez from disagreeing with every point Salgado made this evening as they discussed the point-of-sale (POS) terminals used by Zara, Inditex’s largest chain of stores. Sánchez was the technical lead for the POS system, so the matter was close to his heart. “It’s time to upgrade them,” said Salgado. “No, it’s not.” “Yes, it is. It’s risky to let them get so far behind current technology.” “No, it’s riskier to upgrade them just to ‘stay current.’ The software works fine now; we shouldn’t touch it.” “But it runs on DOS, which you know Microsoft doesn’t even support anymore.” 1 “And you know DOS hasn’t been supported for years now, and that hasn’t stopped us or hurt us,” Sánchez replied. “We have the right to keep using the operating system—where’s the problem?” “One problem is that the ...

To be trapped in a cage like a rat , denied of equality. Or have you felt freedom like a bird that soars through great winds without anything to carry a burden? Mandy never felt more confused and lost than now. She was drown to an energy, a spirit, a vibe or maybe the feeling of happiness. (3RDY, XAN SLEEPING : CELINE SLEEPING) Nar: Mandy was the apple of the eye, the only daughter of the Sander’s. They provided her with everything she needed. She was privileged.
