There are though some online options for doing such a transfer for free:

1. PayPal

PayPal allows you to transfer money to friends for free.  The following image shows the where exactly in the interface you can do it.

Pros

+ You do not need a lot of information from the friend, just an email address.

Cons

- The friend needs a PayPal account

- It takes a while for the friend to actually get the money after he accepts them.

- If there are problems with the transfer, it might be difficult to get the money back.

PayPal allows sending money to friends for free

2. ING Direct checking account

ING allows doing the same thing, very easily. Go here for a tutorial.

Pros

+ Fast, free

+ You can get 75 account opening bonus for opening such an account (no hidden fees) . Read more here.

Cons

- You need the account information from the friend (bank account number, routing number)

I prefer the ING option, but you might like the PayPal one more.

For a savings account you can use this link:

https://banking.ingdirect.com/savings/set_promo_cookie.vm?t=%9f%41%65%66%6c%67%65%61%62%60%98%65%5f%66%63%6c%63%63%65%63%65%62%67

If the link does not work, just send an email to my email address ingbonusd at gmail.com with your email address and type of account you want (ING Electric Orange Savings or Checking) and I will send you back an up to date referral link. The only restriction is that your initial deposit should be of at least 250 for you to get the bonus.

1. Type about:config in the address bar. From the window that appears, find the following line “browser.xul.error_pages.enabled”. If the value from the same line is false, then double click it(it will turn to “true”).

2. Enter the URL of the webpage that you wanted again, a window will appear offering you the option of adding an exception that allows you to view the website.

Adding an exception can also be done manually, following the steps:

1. Go to “Tools” menu and then “Options” .
2. Click on “Advanced”, then tab “Encryption” .
3. Click on the “View Certificates” button.
4. Select the tab called “Servers” from the window that appears.
5. Click on the button “Add Exception” (bottom right).

The simplest way to read Yahoo Mail messages in your Gmail inbox is to use the free web application called Nutshellmail. Just sign up for an account, setup Gmail as your primary address and setup your yahoo account. You will start receiving your Yahoo Mail in Gmail. You can customize the hours when Nutshellmail checks for Yahoo email, but the interval cannot be less than an hour. Another disadvantage is that the messages arrive batched in a single email, but this is a small price to pay for getting the email in Gmail for free.

s = the length of the serial part of the problem

p = the length of the parallel part of the problem

N = number of processors used

Gustafson’s law states that , with increasing data size, the speedup obtained through parallelisation increases, because the parallel work increases(scales) with data size.

To those who took Amdahl’s law as an argument against Massively Parallel Processing, Gustafson’s law proves they are wrong.

1. Today, Amdahl’s presumption of fixed data size is obviously a restriction which does not map into reality for many problems.

2. Both laws are in fact different perspective over the same truth – one sees data size as fixed and the other sees the relation as a function of data size.

I always heard about such spikes in visitors / page views, but I never thought it would happen to me . Five times more visitors than the average, in one day.

The easiest method to get the CPU usage from a Java class in Linux is to parse the output of the top command. Check out the following code.

import java.io.*;
public class SystemData
{
    static String cmdTop = "top -n 2 -b -d 0.2";
    // returns user cpu usage 
    public static double getCpu()
    {
        double cpu = -1;
        try
        {
            // start up the command in child process
            String cmd = cmdTop;
            Process child = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(cmd);

            // hook up child process output to parent
            InputStream lsOut = child.getInputStream();
            InputStreamReader r = new InputStreamReader(lsOut);
            BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(r);

            // read the child process' output
            String line;
            int emptyLines = 0;
            while(emptyLines<3)
            {
                line = in.readLine();
                if (line.length()<1) emptyLines++;
            }
            in.readLine();
            in.readLine();
            line = in.readLine();
            System.out.println("Parsing line "+ line);
            String delims = "%";
            String[] parts = line.split(delims);
            System.out.println("Parsing fragment " + parts[0]);
            delims =" ";

            parts = parts[0].split(delims);
            cpu = Double.parseDouble(parts[parts.length-1]);
        }
        catch (Exception e)
        { // exception thrown
            System.out.println("Command failed!");
        }
        return cpu;
    }
}

The parameters from the top command line mean: -b = batch mode, -d 0.2 = take the readings at 0.2 seconds intervals, -n 2 = take 2 readings (the first reading is not correct, from my experience, so we take two).
This code fragment only gets the user CPU percentage. To get the whole CPU percentage, you have to add this value with the system CPU. These values are easy to obtain by changing a few numeric values in the above code. This is left as an exercise for the user. Note that although in general the system CPU and nice CPU percentages are very small, this is not always the case and it is safer to add these values together than to approximate the CPU usage as user CPU only.
