Software/Hardware FPGA Dev Board that runs Linux

Posted by Hemos on from the bringing-it-together dept.

bforsse writes "The ML300 allows engineers to develop hardware with HDL synthesis/simulation and software with standard GNU tools. The entire system is implemented inside one FPGA with an integrated IBM PPC processor. The board comes with all the peripherals that a standard motherboard or laptop has and then some. It currently ships with MontaVista Linux, a number of other linux flavors and OSs are in the pipeline. Maybe this new merging of the hardware and software worlds will settle some of the religious wars between hw and sw engineers?...ok, maybe not."

    Bleeding from the back passage is something that you should always see your doctor about, even if you are convinced it is piles or an anal fissure. The reason you need to be checked is that bleeding from the back passage can be a symptom of bowel (colon or rectum) cancer. If you don't like the idea of being examined in that area, look at Seeing your doctor about an anal problem.

    In general, if the bleeding is bright red and you have anal pain, especially when you pass a stool, it is probably a non-serious condition such as anal fissure or piles - but your doctor needs to make sure.

    If the bleeding is dark red, or in clots, or mixed with a lot of slime, or mixed in with the faeces it could be a more serious condition (such as colitis, diverticular disease or cancer of the rectum or colon) that needs prompt treatment. Other symptoms that might be serious are a decreased frequency and/or hardness of faeces, or an increased frequency and/or looseness of faeces.

    There is nothing like holding a screaming woman down and forcing your cock into her against her will. Man, I love that. The only thing that is better is hitting her afterwards to make sure she doesn't talk. I'm getting a hard on just typing about it. I think I'll go rape your mom in a little while.
