Software architecture specialist Vector Fabrics has launched its Pareon multicore optimization product. Built with an analysis engine capable of preventing what its makers denote as both "hard-to-find" and "hard-to-reproduce" threading bugs, the tool also boasts a hardware modeling engine to prevent the developer from writing code that introduces performance bottlenecks or slowdowns.
Pareon combines the features of Vector Fabrics' previous vfEmbedded and vfThreaded-X86 parallelization tools into one product with over 50 new features, including bus and shared cache contention modeling, support for C/C++, as well as ARM Neon.
NOTE: NEON technology is a 128-bit SIMD (Single Instruction, Multiple Data) architecture extension for the ARM Cortex-A series processors. NEON technology is designed to accelerate multimedia and signal processing algorithms such as video encode/decode, 2D/3D graphics, gaming, audio and speech processing, image processing, telephony, and sound synthesis.
Vector Fabrics' previous tools were cloud-based and ran in the user's web browser, but Pareon runs locally on a workstation, integrating more closely with typical development workflows that include complex build mechanisms, and targets large applications that rely heavily on calling routines inside binary libraries.
"All recent mobile phones, tablets, laptops, and desktops have multicore architectures inside. However, optimizing apps for multicore architectures is hard, error prone, and takes lots of time. As a result, a lot of software isn't optimized yet and dual-core or quad-core devices provide minimal speed-ups. Pareon assists developers in optimizing their software for multicore, allowing them to close this gap and removing the barrier to increase the performance of their applications. We see typical speed-ups of 1.7x on dual-core and 3.5x on quad-core processors," said Mike Beunder, CEO of Vector Fabrics.

text: Jun 30, 2011 We're starting to gear up for the Fall 2011 semester of IPT, and we're hoping that all of the people in the class are doing the same. We're about to put up a questionnaire where we ask you what kind of jobs you think you'd be interested in doing in class, but it's not really fair to ask you that question before we've given you some information about it. This is the first of three posts that will talk about what we expect from IPT team members. Leadership Roles Project Manager The project manager is the big kahuna – the person in charge of the entire IPT team. Project managers work with the scientists to develop a winning mission, concentrating on the big picture of what goes where and when. They need to have strong organizational skills and be a good technical writer, since they do most of the work on integrating reports and writing presentations. We've noticed that teams take on the personality of their PM; we want project managers to be excited about IPT and (most importantly) ready to win. Responsible for organizing deliverables and ensuring that assignments are complete. Responsible for maintaining morale. Primary interface with scientists, including the Principle Investigator. Needs to have strong organizational skills. Needs to be a skilled presenter and public speaker. Needs to be comfortable in authority. Chief Engineer The Chief Engineer is the geek's geek on an IPT team; they have to know something about everything on a space mission. They need to be massively dedicated to the team and the project, ready to help when people are falling behind and ready to push the entire team in those last crucial days before a deliverable. The CE is the absolute authority on everything about their team's design – they're the person who can tell you everything you've ever wanted to know about how to get to Mercury or the Moon. Responsible for the UAH technical design team. Responsible for margins, reserves, and the Master Equipment List. Needs to be technically skilled. Needs to have strong organizational skills. Needs to be a skilled presenter and public speaker. Needs to be comfortable in authority. Lead Systems Engineer Have you ever wanted to run a multi-national corporation? If so, this is the place to start; the LSE is responsible for keeping track of all the partners attached to an IPT team. High school students in the InSPIRESS program are competing to design payloads for your spacecraft, other engineering teams in other states ( Cal State L.A. for example) and in other countries (ESTACA in Paris) are designing some parts of the mission, and it's your job to keep everyone on track and moving together as a team. At the same time, you have to keep an eye on the UAH design and the mission as a whole – it's your job to make sure that the requirements of the mission are met and that the mission stays on budget. Welcome to the real world! Responsible for organizing and maintaining contact with partner teams. Responsible for verification of requirements. Responsible for cost and risk evaluations. Needs to have strong organizational skills. Needs to be a skilled presenter and public speaker. Needs to be comfortable in authority, especially with remote teams.

My older may never make it onto Oprah or American Idol, but his teacher intentionally moved him right before the started from the end to the center to be closer to the mic, and he did not disappoint with his personality and stage presence.
The next morning I had to pack and load the car. We made it out of the house by 10 a.m. Although we'd been to Big Sur, we'd never explored the coast between Half Moon Bay and Santa Cruz. First we stopped at a random beach off the highway (Bean Hollow State Beach).
Then we visited the Pigeon Point Light Station.
You can't go into the lighthouse now, but the views were great, and a volunteer briefly taught us about whales; my son may have grasped the concept of baleen.
The resort is across the street from the Año Nuevo State Reserve, so we could do a loop hike from the our campground. When I strapped on the Ergo carrier, my wife asked me if I was sure I wanted to carry our 19-month-old. I looked at her confusedly so she added "because of your race tomorrow." Whoa, I hadn't heard her express concern about saving my body for a race in a while! I told her that I would NEVER put my racing ahead of my paternal duties. All right, I didn't say that, and when I race I do leave her with the kids. But on this hike I did carry my little one the whole time.
The views were spectacular. And my older son never whined or asked to be carried.
The trail got very sandy the second half. I found myself working a lot more than I'd anticipated, climbing sections of trail that were essentially over sand dunes. So maybe I was lucky that my older son made us stop several times by while got on all fours on the white sand playing desert commando. I guess I wasn't going to sprint up this hill anyways.
The shower room was heated, as were our mattress pads. No, this wasn't real camping, but this was perfect, since it was fricking windy and cold, and I know better than to make my wife take down a tent and pack with two small kids the next morning.
So back to Sunday, we soon saw a big parking lot on the ocean side at right, and no bus yet. I got out looking like this:
We arrived at the start around 8:30, and I bee-lined for the three Portalets at the end of the filled parking lot, the line shorter than when I took this photo.
A master of multitasking, I was able to change into David's shorts while doing my business and so didn't further hold up the rapidly lengthening queue. I took off my dingy sweatshirt, ate a half-sized Cliff Bar, and filled my bottle with water. I was finally ready to run! But as before my first and last race this year, I was fricking freezing! I spotted super-talented Sportiva teammate Caitlin Smith and introduced myself to her. She was wearing the 2009 Sportiva Mountain Running Team halter top. Will Gotthardt was with her, doing better by being shirtless. Here they are (photo by Cal), both ripped in respective feminine and masculine ways running later:
Like at Diablo Trails, I took off fast mostly because I was freezing, but in this race, the field is thick, including last year's co-winner, Leor Pantilat, so I didn't find myself way ahead of the pack.
It was downhill from the start, and with that, everyone was flying. I was soon completely out of breath, but at least not so cold, but plenty of people passed me. Soon I fell behind this guy who looked older, with a receding hairline. Nothing against guys looking like that, but not knowing his age or fitness level, I was wondering if I should be well ahead of him.
After the race, I determined that bib #168 was Paul Taylor of Redwood City, only 4 years older than me, and ended up running a marathon distance (by inadvertently skipping a loop?) in 4:08; a friend told me I look like a taiko drummer with my visor backwards. photo by Cal.
Several miles later, I eventually passed him.
I takes me several times to get people's names and faces down, so I was pleased to know I now had Brian's voice down. He told me I'd probably pass him again soon, but I told him probably not. "Well you just ran 150 miles a couple of weeks ago," he said; Brian had just done PCTR's Diablo 50 miler last weekend, so I wasn't going to sandbag an excuse-- this might be the first time he's beaten me in a race-- great job dude! The downhill finally leveled out, which I found more forgiving on my body, even if I pushed the pace. I suspected it would be mostly flat to the end, so as only to be 75% wussy, I decided to hammer it home.
Interestingly (and minorly irritatingly) despite the flat terrain and ample sunlight making its way past the treetops, my Garmin Forerunner kept beeping and flashing "Satellite Reception Lost, Click Enter." So when I saw a few water bottles at the side of the trail, and my Garmin read 7 something miles for for the split, I wasn't sure if this was the last aid station or not, so I quickly unscrewed my lid, filled my bottle and sped off.
I ran into the finish area, got handed my finisher's coaster, and saw all these guys already relaxing in the grass that maybe another day I would've been able to keep up with (or maybe not--maybe I'll never know). Rick Gaston, who had been volunteering on the course and now at the finish, then shot a photo of a bunch of us.
As I commented to those witnessing my folly, it's better to think I'm missing my son when I'm not than to not realize he's missing when he is.
The drive home had that happy feeling of having had a great weekend. And my wife told me that she would enjoy coming back and doing the upscale camping thing again I wanted to do the race next year.
Thanks Sarah and Wendell, all the many volunteers (point to point courses like this take many many), David for the shorts, my bro for the call, my Sportiva and other sponsors (see links above at right), and my wife and kids for letting me go run and being so much fun making the whole weekend memorable.

Fox Debuts The Five With Litany Of Sexist Stereotypes
Research ››› ››› ZACHARY PLEAT
Fox News' The Five, launched as a "new weekday program" to fill the time slot previously held by Glenn Beck, debuted with a barrage of sexist stereotypes, including comparing government spending to spendthrift wives, discussing whether Sarah Palin could be elected "based just on her hotness," and asking a female panelist whether she was "looking for a sugar daddy."
First Episode Of The Five Littered With Sexist Stereotypes
Greg Gutfeld Twice Compared Government Spending With "A Wife And Her Credit Cards." Discussing the debt ceiling, panelist Greg Gutfeld said, "That's the problem with being president: You love raising the debt ceiling. It's like a wife and her credit cards. Americans have to be the husband that takes the credit card and breaks it up." He later said of President Obama: "He's like your wife running around with your credit cards." [Fox News, The Five, 7/11/11]
Bob Beckel Asked Female Colleague If She Wanted "A Sugar Daddy." Discussing a Facebook post by Sarah Palin in which Palin wrote that "hard working taxpayers have been big government's sugar daddy for far too long," panelist Andrea Tantaros said to Bob Beckel, "Bob, you've been a sugar daddy before." Tantaros later said the government was "sugar-daddy like," to which Beckel replied: "Are you looking for a sugar daddy?" [Fox News, The Five, 7/11/11]
Gutfeld And Tantaros Discussed Palin's "Hotness." Tantaros said to Gutfeld: "Greg, I know you think that Palin's hot. Can she win based just on her hotness?" Gutfeld replied, "I'm turned on by her brains." When Beckel called him a "liar," Gutfeld responded: "I am a liar. I am lying right now." [Fox News, The Five, 7/11/11]
Gutfeld: Media Matters Emails "Read Like A Missive From An Ex-Girlfriend." Attacking Media Matters, Gutfeld said, "I get an email every day from Media Matters, and it reads like a missive from an ex-girlfriend. It's just a litany of how much they hate us." [Fox News, The Five, 7/11/11]
Gutfeld: Government Is "Your Mistress." Discussing energy efficiency standards for light bulbs, Gutfeld said, "The government is not your mom and dad, it's your mistress. So you call her -- she never calls you, and she never comes to your house." [Fox News, The Five, 7/11/11]

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) This was the kind of game that fans in 1950s would have loved, a defensive-minded, grind-it-out affair that ultimately came down to who kicked the most field goals.
It's also the kind of game that fans of the Ravens have come to expect.
With a defense anchored by linebacker Ray Lewis and safety Ed Reed, the Ravens managed to keep the downtrodden Kansas City Chiefs out of the end zone Sunday. Justin Tucker kicked a trio of three field goals to Ryan Succop's two, and that proved to be the difference in Baltimore's 9-6 victory.
``The number one thing we came out here and said was, `Look at the scoreboard.' If they're not on the scoreboard, I don't care what people do against us,'' Lewis said. ``You've heard me speak about this for years. It doesn't matter. Just keep playing the game.''
Indeed, defense has been the Ravens' hallmark over the years.
The guys in black and purple have made a habit of turning offenses black and blue, and that was no different Sunday. Jamaal Charles gashed them for 125 yards rushing in the first half but had just 15 in the second half, and quarterback Matt Cassel was turned into an after-thought.
At least, until he was knocked out of the game entirely.
Cassel was intercepted twice and charged with two fumbles before he was planted by Ravens defensive tackle Haloti Ngata in the fourth quarter. He remained down for several minutes before leaving with what the Chiefs called a ``head injury,'' the extent of which was unknown.
Brady Quinn finished out the game for Kansas City.
``Baltimore is a great team. They've had a tough defense for a long, long time,'' Quinn said. ``If you allow them to stop you running the football and put yourself where you have to pass the ball or in certain passing situations, you can be in trouble.''
Cassel's injury prompted applause from some fans in Kansas City, perhaps some of them the same ones who paid for an airplane to tow a banner before the game pleading for Cassel to be benched and for Chiefs ownership to fire general manager Scott Pioli.
The cheering didn't sit well with members of the Chiefs, either.
``I think it's sickening and disgusting,'' offensive tackle Eric Winston said angrily. ``We are not gladiators and this is not the Roman Colosseum. This is a game.''
Joe Flacco threw for 187 yards and was picked off once, but the Ravens (4-1) were still able to come up with enough points to beat the Chiefs (1-4), who turned it over four times.
The Chiefs have committed 19 turnovers through their first five games, the most this early in a season since the New Orleans Saints had 21 of them in 1997.
``This team needs to do more things to win,'' Chiefs coach Romeo Crennel said. ``That's what we're going to work on, try to get this team to do more of the right things so that we can win.''
The Chiefs had a good chance to win this one, even with so much going wrong.
Quinn led the Chiefs down field after Cassel got hurt, and looked as though he'd given them a lead when he connected with Dwayne Bowe for a touchdown. But it was wiped away by an offensive pass interference call on Dexter McCluster, and Succop was forced to kick another field goal.
The Ravens managed to convert two third downs and run out the clock.
``What a football game,'' Ravens coach John Harbaugh said. ``I'm so proud of our guys to find a way to win this football game. We didn't know exactly how it would go, or what it was going to take. We just have to figure it out and win a football game. In the end, we got one more stop and one more first down. That's what we needed to do to win the football game in the end.''
Tucker gave Baltimore a 3-0 lead with his field goal late in the first quarter, but Succop's 30-yarder late in the second quarter sent the game to halftime tied.
Kansas City had a chance to pull ahead after Baltimore fumbled the opening kickoff of the second half. Pass interference gave the Chiefs the ball at the 1-yard line, but Cassel fumbled the snap and Reed recovered it, keeping the game knotted 3-all.
Tucker added a 26-yard field goal moments later, and after Cassel was picked off on a pass that bounced off Bowe's helmet, Tucker hit again from 39 yards to make it 9-3.
The Chiefs managed their fourth-quarter field goal before time finally expired.
``This game is as hard as it gets,'' Lewis said. ``We've been in here before. It was the same type of formula. We knew the kind of game we were going to get out of these guys. We knew it was going to be a tough sled. For us to come in and keep fighting and keep fighting and keep fighting, that's the one thing we talked about. ... Just keep playing all the way to the end.''
Notes: Chiefs LBs Justin Houston and Tamba Hali each had two sacks. ... Quinn played for the first time since Dec. 20, 2009, with Cleveland. ... The Ravens had 298 yards of offense. They're averaging 310.5 yards in two road games and 457 yards in four home games.

Has Selena Gomez Started Smoking?
Selena Gomez is fresh-faced and positive on her new Seventeen cover, which ranked her No. 1 on its first-ever Power List of young women in Hollywood. Sel has a super, duper squeaky clean image -- but that may be tarnished because a photo of the singer and actress has us wondering if she has picked up a nasty habit.
In the first pictures of Gomez to surface after her on-off ex Justin Bieber's arrest (Jan. 23) for DUI and drag racing, she was spotted with a large cup of soda and a pack of cigarettes in her hand. The brand is Djarum, which are cloves. Could the stress of the Biebs' sitch have caused her to resort to smoking to deal with the headaches and drama?
She also wore a bindi in the middle of her forehead, something that has generated criticism and controversy in the past.
A blind item popped up a few weeks back, suggesting that Sel is quietly battling a cocaine and alcohol problem, another thing that is decidedly at odds with her pristine public image.
She is quite a role model for Selenators, but if she is indeed drinking, doing bumps and/or has picked up a smoking habit, she could be going down the same road as her formerly precious on-off BF.
We're not sure what to make of this. Maybe she was buying them for someone else? See Pics of Selena Gomez With a Pack of Djarums here.

Lead-free piezoelectric materials of the future
Piezoelectric materials have fantastic properties: squeeze them and they generate an electrical field. And vice-versa, they contract or expand when jolted with an electrical pulse. With a name derived from the Greek word meaning to squeeze or press, the piezoelectric effect was just a curiosity after it was discovered in several crystals in 1880. But in 1917, a quartz piezoelectric crystal was at the heart of the world's first submarine-detecting sonar.
Piezoelectric materials really took off after the 1950s, with the development of a superior man-made piezoelectric ceramic crystal: lead zirconate titanate, or PZT (the initials of its chemical symbols). Over the past 60 years, PZT has been essential for myriad high-tech applications: from inkjet printers to digital camera shutters, ultrasonic imagers, fuel injector actuators, and igniters for gas barbecue grills.
Despite this success, many scientists now want to replace PZT with some as yet undiscovered lead-free material that would be more environmentally benign and that would enable new piezoelectric applications in biological settings. To date, however, no suitable successors have been found. Candidates are typically too feeble in their piezoelectric effect and/or physical durability.
A Swiss scientist, Dragan Damjanovic, thinks researchers should be looking more broadly. He says nearly all of today's efforts are focused on materials whose ions and electrons -- the ultimate source of the piezoelectric effect -- behave in a particular manner, called polarization rotation. His theoretical calculations have shown that another, overlooked behavior - polarization extension, present in other classes of materials -- can also generate an enhanced piezoelectric effect.
An article by Damjanovic in the journal Applied Physics Letters, which is published by the American Institute of Physics, details his ideas and supporting evidence. In particular, he proposes a particular type of phase diagram that he believes will lead to improved, lead-free piezoelectric materials.
"What I have done is at odds with the dominant thinking," Damjanovic admits. "But I offer a different approach to an important problem."

Electrical current is 220 volts, 50Hz. The standard
two-pin European style plugs are used.
The national language is Polish. English is widely
understood in tourist areas.
Tipping is not customary in Poland, but small gratuities of 10%
can be offered for excellent service. In restaurants, when your
money is collected, by saying 'thank you' this signals to the
waiter/waitress to keep the change.
Tourists should be alert to the risk of robbery in tourist areas
in large cities in Poland, particularly in the vicinity of hotels,
markets and banks. Vigilance against theft should also be exercised
at central railway stations, as well as on overnight long distance
trains, and when travelling on public transport between Warsaw's
Frederic Chopin Airport and central Warsaw. Avoid walking alone at
night. Tourist sites, areas near big hotels, money exchange
facilities and ATMs are popular with thieves.
Jay walking is an offence in Poland, which is punishable with a
fine. Public drunkenness is severely viewed; police will take drunk
people to drying out clinics until sober and the person will be
charged for the stay, and driving after drinking alcohol is
punishable by law.
Poland has an interesting mix of the old and the new, and this
is apparent in the business world too. Women can expect a kiss on
the hand rather than a handshake from the older generation and one
can expect to be warmly offered drinks during meetings; it is
impolite to refuse. Although the Polish are hospitable and
friendly, business is still conducted formally. Punctuality is
important, dress should be formal and conservative (a suit and tie
the norm) and business cards are exchanged. Use titles and first
names unless otherwise indicated. English is widely spoken, though
attempting some basic Polish phrases will be appreciated. Business
hours in Poland are traditionally 7am to 3pm Monday to Friday, with
a long lunch taken after 3pm. Western influence, however, means
that hours are starting to shift to the more common 9am to 5pm.
The international access code for Poland is +48. The outgoing
code is 00 followed by the relevant country code (e.g. 0044 for the
United Kingdom). City/area codes are in use, e.g. (0)22 for Warsaw
and (0)12 for Krakow. Cheap rates apply between 4pm and 6am, and on
weekends. Mobile phones work throughout the country, local
operators use GSM networks, which may not be compatible with some
US cell phones. Internet cafes are available in most towns.
Travellers to Poland over 17 years arriving from non-EU
countries do not have to pay duty on 250 cigarettes or 50 cigars or
250g tobacco; 1 litre wine and 1 litre spirits; cosmetics and
medicines for personal use; gifts up to the value of EUR175.
Travellers to Poland arriving from within the EU do not have to pay
duty on 800 cigarettes or 200 cigars or 1kg smoking tobacco; 10
litres spirits, 90 litres wine and 110 litres beer. Prohibited
items include birds and poultry arriving from countries infected
with Avian influenza. The export of all articles of artistic,
historic or cultural value are subject to special regulations.

EU Proposes To Provide Open Access To The Results Of Research It Funds
from the it's-happening dept
Yesterday, Techdirt reported on the UK government's plans to make publicly-funded scientific research freely available as open access. One concern was that its approach required funds to be diverted from research to pay for the article processing charges levied by so-called "gold" open access titles. One figure being bandied around was about $80 million per year, but a new report in the Guardian suggests this is a huge over-estimate, and that the true cost will be more like a fifth of that figure.
The same article notes that the government was not the only one making strong open access moves in the UK:
Research Councils UK, a coalition of the UK's biggest research funders, released its own updated open access policy, which is even more forthright than the broader government policy in requiring true open access that allows free commercial re-use. And maybe most important of all in the long term, flying in under the radar, the Higher Education Funding Council for England announced plans to require open access in all publications evaluated for the Research Evaluation Framework. This will remove the main reason that traditionalists have shied away from open access: fear that publications in newer OA journals will not be perceived as prestigious as those in long-established subscription journals.
As that points out, the requirements of these two research funders are even more stringent than the UK government's plans, and should accelerate the move to open access well in advance of the latter's introduction, by placing open access at the heart of academic evaluation in the UK.
Hard on the heels of those UK announcements, the European Commission has now released details of its own proposed open access policy:
the Commission will make open access to scientific publications a general principle of Horizon 2020, the EU's Research & Innovation funding programme for 2014-2020. As of 2014, all articles produced with funding from Horizon 2020 will have to be accessible:
Researchers can therefore opt either for immediate "gold" open access, where fees are covered by the EU, or to publish in traditional titles with delayed "green" open access afterwards. In addition, the Commission is hopping on the open data bandwagon:
articles will either immediately be made accessible online by the publisher ('Gold' open access) -- up-front publication costs can be eligible for reimbursement by the European Commission; or
researchers will make their articles available through an open access repository no later than six months (12 months for articles in the fields of social sciences and humanities) after publication ('Green' open access).
The Commission will also start experimenting with open access to the data collected during publicly funded research (e.g. the numerical results of experiments), taking into account legitimate concerns related to the fundee's commercial interests or to privacy.
That may seem a little timid, but it's worth bearing in mind that the EU tends to move cautiously: it first started flirting with the idea of open access back in 2006, as this background page listing related initiatives make plain. Another aspect of open access that the European Commission has only begun to explore is providing the software used to produce scientific results (pdf), an idea discussed on Techdirt last month:
The Commission will also encourage, where appropriate, the publication of software codes used to produce or process the data.
It's worth emphasizing that these are just proposals, and subject to revision. But currently they include a call for individual EU countries to adopt similar policies with a goal of making 60% of European publicly-funded research articles available under open access by 2016. Together with all the other national moves around the world, the EU's far-reaching plans would seem to signal that open access has reached a tipping point, and could soon be the norm.

How many cases have there been of HIV being transmitted through a male performing oral sex on a female? After performing oral sex on a suspect female (sex worker), I have had problems with a sore throat and salty taste in mouth (sometimes burning senestation). Dr. said I did not have thrush, but tongue seems more coated than usual to me and it is painful, also have had a few canker sores in mouth since incident. Also, is it possible for a male to get a yeast infection through performing oral sex on a female that has a yeast infection -- that could be an alternative to HIV explanation for the mouth problems!!!
There are only a few cases documented by the CDC that demonstrate HIV transmission to a person performing oral sex on a woman. This is the best evidence that the risk of transmission through cunnilingus is very low.
First of all, the risk of HIV transmission through oral sex is low when compared to unprotected vaginal and anal sex. The reasons for this, in part, have to do with biological differences: simply put, HIV seems to have a more difficult time causing infection when introduced to the mucous membranes of the mouth (saliva may provide additional protection and the cells in the mouth may not be as prone to infection). Secondly, the concentrations of HIV in vaginal secretions seem much lower than the concentrations of HIV in cervical secretions and menstrual blood. When performing oral sex on a female, the mouth is more likely to come into contact with vaginal secretions. Some sources suggest that vaginal fluids dilute the more infectious fluid, decreasing the chances of transmission to someone's mouth.
It is important that you do not perform unprotected oral sex on a woman when she is menstruating (blood has a much higher concentration of HIV), and if you are experiencing any problems with your oral health (sores, abrasions, inflammation). If you would like to decrease the risk of transmission even further, you can use a latex barrier--like a dental dam or a condom cut into a square--between your partner's vagina and your mouth.
For more about transmission through oral sex, see the CDC's fact sheet on oral transmission (http://www.thebody.com/cdc/oralsex.html).
In terms of oral candidiasis (yeast infections in the mouth or "thrush"), someone who is not immune compromised is unlikely to have problems with this. Candida, the fungus that causes candidiasis, normally exists in a person's mouth but is kept under control by normal bacteria. Certain illnesses (esp. HIV disease), use of medications, and possibly stress, can lead to oral thrush. So, transmission of candida among HIV negative people is possible during cunnilingus, but unlikely and rare.

Developer Salute – Bethesda
I push past the dark environs of the prison dungeons through the barred door and emerge into the sunlight. A river stretches out in either direction to my sides, and on the far side of the water ruined arches of an ancient building beckon. In the distance, the mountains promise even more adventure. And just like that, I'm left on my own to decide what to do next.
Based on conversations I've had with dozens of gamers, I'm definitely not the only that was struck by this scene near the beginning of The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. That sense of freedom, exploration, and discovery is at the core of the appeal behind the games released by Bethesda Game Studios. Whether you look back at the early releases in the Elder Scrolls franchise, or examine the developer's most recent work on Skyrim, Bethesda has cemented a reputation for providing meaningful choice and true moments of discovery in each and every game. While we gamers are often left waiting for years between projects, the wait is always worth it; few gaming experiences get me as excited as those early moments of discovery in a new game from Bethesda.
Whether you label it as a strength or a weakness, I often think about the idea that Bethesda has primarily explored one game concept to its fullest in the last 20 years. However, the development team keeps making that concept better and better each time, and changing the trappings that surround that concept with such sophistication, that you're happy to play through the experience again. Consider all the things that make Fallout 3 and The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim the same as each other. No matter the setting, we embrace the freedom these settings provide above anything else. Ultimately, the free-roaming, open-world experience was in part pioneered by Bethesda's work on the Elder Scrolls series in the 1990s, and they've continued to hone that experience as the years pass. Like a chef who is known for his signature dish or an artist who always works in the same medium, Bethesda has gathered a legion of fans that play its games for a similar experience to what they had last time.
Todd Howard serves as game director at Bethesda Game Studios
Of course, it's those trappings that surround the fundamental game concept that make all the difference. Time and again, Bethesda has carved out new niches of the Elder Scrolls universe that make it worth a return trip to Tamriel. The alien landscapes and surprising building architecture of Morrowind, the hellish landscapes that lie beyond the portals of Oblivion, and the snowcapped peaks of Skyrim all stand out as distinct among the most recent entries of Bethesda's signature game world.
In each Elder Scrolls game, the weight of the world's history is ever present. Books describe ancient events or major turning points from previous games. Sprawling dungeons serve as a testament to civilizations that came before. And nested monsters and long-buried undead make the locations you visit feel like real places. No matter which entry you choose, playing an Elder Scrolls game imparts a sense of wonder and mystery, and you never know what lies around the next corner.
Fallout 3 revived the franchise after years without a new entry
Bethesda's departure into the world of Fallout in 2008 imparted a different sort of wonder: the horror of our familiar world devastated by apocalypse. By taking the beloved post-nuclear setting of Fallout and overlaying it with the action-oriented RPG style Bethesda was known for, the Fallout franchise attracted a whole new crowd of fans to the franchise. Fallout 3 also helped prove the validity of mixing familiar first-person shooting with RPG storytelling and upgrades.
Experiences like these bring players back again and again. Even when those same players complain about technical hiccups or combat problems, the lure of a new Bethesda game is hard to resist.
The Bethesda development team has contributed immeasurably to the ambition and scope of what developers are willing to try in their games. It's not unusual to hear other developers cite Elder Scrolls or Fallout 3 as a conceptual touchstone. Perhaps more importantly, Bethesda has managed that rare feat of being a developer that many gamers recognize by name. I'm confident I'm not the only fan who is ready to embrace a new project from Bethesda Game Studios, no matter what it may turn out to be.

Veterans will find it easier and faster to apply for their health care benefits now that the Department of Veterans Affairs has updated its online Form 10-10EZ, "Application for Health Benefits."
"VA is committed to tapping into the best that technology has to offer to ensure Veterans receive the benefits they have earned," said Secretary of Veterans Affairs Eric K. Shinseki. "We continue to look for new ways to improve access to care and benefits."
This revised online application provides enhanced navigation features that make it easier and faster for Veterans to apply for their health care benefits. This new version also allows Veterans to save a copy of the completed form for their personal records.
The most significant enhancement allows veterans to save their application to their local desktop and return to the application at any time without having to start over. Previously, veterans had to complete the form in a single session.
This updated online form, along with the revised VA Form 10-10EZ, reduces the collection of information from veterans by eliminating some questions.
In addition, there are minor changes to simplify the wording of questions and provide clarity in the instructions. Further enhancements to the online application are expected to be delivered in increments throughout 2010.
Veterans can complete or download the 10-10EZ form at the VA health eligibility website at www.1010ez.med.va.gov/sec/vha/1010ez.
