 Press Esw Space 724
Saving and restoring non-scratch registers may consume a lot of code space, especially on a RISC processor, which normally is incapable of saving or restoring several registers within a single instruction.
Note that for space reduction, "frequently used variables" are variables which are statically frequently used, as opposed to speed optimization which calls for optimization of dynamically frequently used variables.
Consider a function f, which uses non-scratch registers R8 to R11:

 Take Off with Tails
Meanwhile on the spaceship, Tekno, Kyla, Platzy, Scratch and Grounder were looking for Tails, when the Emerald Radar detected another emerald on the Red Planet.
Tails volunteered to go into space, and Tekno, Scratch and Grounder volunteered to help him.
Tekno thought about going on a space voyage to find out, and asked Scratch, Grounder and Porker to help build a spaceship.

 SignOnSanDiego.com > News > Science -- Engineers scrambling to understand fuel gauge failure on shuttle
If engineers have to put together a box from scratch, the work could take anywhere from 10 days to three weeks, Hale said.
The problem could be in the gauge at the bottom of the tank – an electronic box aboard the shuttle that serves as a data-relay hub – or in the cables and wires in between.
The fuel gauges are critical and even though only two are needed, all four must be working properly for a launch to proceed.

DJ Quest informs us that there is sstill space for a few last minute remix submissions for this album.
DJ Skizo, the groups founding member, says that "The End" is what they are most proud of after spending the past year-plus honing it to perfection.
This opening volume, mixed by DJ Hyphy, captures the Yay way back in the day, from the very first Bay Area hip-hop single by Motorcycle Mike in 1981 (#19) on through the rest of the decade: back when hip-hop (particularly Bay Area) was still in its infancy.

 Space Cats @ Toonarific Cartoons
Every episode of SpaceCats began on the all-cat planet Triglyceride 7, where Captain Catgut, Scratch, Sniff and Tom worked under the direction of the human D.O.R.C. (Disembodied Omnipotent Ruler of Cats).
The puppetry/animation hybrid ran only 13 episodes before the mission was aborted, and since NBC cancelled its entire cartoon schedule after the 1991-92 season, no new SpaceCats episodes were ordered.
The puppet cats were dispatched to Earth, where their adventures were told in traditional cel animation.

The researchers add that the ability could be harnessed to drive major advances in nanotechnology, the science of the very small, and may even lead to space colonization by robots.
The researcher adds that, while the robot is a relatively simple device, it strengthens the case of scientists who believe self-reproduction isn't unique to living organisms and that in the future machines will be able to clone themselves.
The researchers present their new robot as an example of this theory.

 On Space Bounded Server Algorithms - Baliga, Shende (ResearchIndex)
Abstract: This paper studies space bounded algorithms, i.e., algorithms that use a constant amount of scratch space, for the k--server problem.
The result yields a method for (1) effectively deciding if a given space bounded algorithm is competitive in a given finite metric space, and (2) for designing competitive space bounded algorithms in finite metric spaces.
The paper first shows a characterization of the set of space bounded algorithms that are competitive in finite metric spaces.

 SPACE.com -- Noah's Cosmic Ark: Preserving DNA on the Moon
It would seem prudent — if one had the means — to save some portion of the blueprints of this majesty, so that the process would not have to start over from scratch in the event of a global cataclysm.
Foing, who first raised the idea to a BBC reporter at the British Association Festival of Science last week, said this would defeat the purpose of having a self-sustaining support colony, since there would be no sunlight in a bunker for growing food.

 Touring a treasure of Florida's Space Coast "This Place is Real America"
It is about space exploration......Interestingly, except for the giant Apollo Saturn 1B rocket, which NASA built from scratch, all the crafts were originally designed for the military.
Everything about it looks real: the flight deck, where the astronauts fly the orbiter during launch and landings; the middeck, where shuttle crews work on experiments, sleep, eat and use the toilet; the cargo bay, where satellites, the laboratory and the space station modules grab a ride into orbit.
As a high school junior, I was at the Cape on Feb. 20, 1962, when John Glenn blasted into space for the first time on Friendship 7, and I was here in October 1998, when, at age 77, Glenn went up the second time on the shuttle Discovery.

 TrouserPress.com :: Lee "Scratch" Perry (and the Upsetters)
Way beyond weirdness, the world of Lee "Scratch" Perry is one where people wear umbrellas on their heads, where the bass is the place, where space constantly shifts, where age does not whither, where reason sleeps and the dub quivers, and where avant-garde sonic formalism and mindless fun are bedmates.
Certainly eccentric, possibly mad (even his record company bio acknowledges it!), Lee "Scratch" Perry is reggae's most influential producer, with a career that spans the entire history of the music.
Perry became an Island house producer in the '70s and a major influence on new wave bands with an affinity for reggae.

 handprint : modern color models
Maxwell and Rood were probably the first to locate painting pigments within an explicit color measurement system (Maxwell's triangle), and their work was often copied (or reproduced from scratch) by art textbook authors.
The vertical black to white dimension is the lightness or value of a color; the horizontal plane perpendicular to this dimension is the hue of a color; and the lateral distance or radius from the center outwards is the chroma (and approximately the saturation) of a color.
Color appearance and the apparent differences between color samples are strongly affected by the power spectrum or spectral emission profile of the light source used to illuminate them.

But unless you're creating a dual boot from scratch, you need to back up your data files and make sure you have the required diagnostic and recovery disks.
Setting up a dual boot is usually a benign procedure, but in some cases you might wind up with a system that doesn't start properly.
Creating a dual boot is easy if you start with Win98 already installed—just run Win2K Pro setup and decline the option to upgrade, as Screen 1, page 162, shows.
