Rory Sutherland, who finished second in Round 2 of the Jayco Bay Classic, is one of the quieter talents of Australian cycling.
Sutherland put it in perspective succinctly, when reflecting on the race and the overall grand plan "...but that's life, you get over it, but I've signed up for another year, which I'm really, really happy about".
This season will be Sutherland's final year in the U23 ranks and if he keeps improving at the rate he has been over the past few years, he should be in good stead to take the step up to the Pro team for 2005.

 Lynn Conway's VLSI systems research discussed in "Funding a Revolution"
Encouraged by Bert Sutherland, Conway's laboratory manager at Xerox, and Bert's brother, Ivan Sutherland, chair of computer science at CalTech, Mead and Conway developed a simplified, standardized system design methodology and layout design rules for VLSI system and circuit design.
The final report, written by Ivan Sutherland, Carver Mead, and Thomas Everhardt, concluded that continued attempts to increase computational power by packing more devices onto a single integrated circuit--as industry was attempting--ignored the possibility of even greater gains through wholly new computer architectures.
Sutherland and Mead published a derivative article in Scientific American in September 1977 to gain an even broader audience for their ideas (Sutherland and Mead, 1977).

 IEEE Spectrum Careers
Bert Sutherland, who retired in 2000 as director of Sun Microsystems Laboratory after a career that also included stints managing researchers at Xerox Palo Alto Research Center, expresses another concern about where the increasing reliance on modeling and simulation may be taking engineers.
Sure, Sutherland says, growing computer power makes it easier to model phenomena that are already easy to model, but "things that are difficult to model stay difficult."
This increase in productivity poses a conundrum, says Sutherland: you have to hope that the number of projects calling for engineering talent outpaces the rate at which EEs encapsulate and standardize their knowledge, making fewer of them necessary for any given project.
