Video streaming website Twitch has been bought by Amazon for almost $1bn. Photograph: Rex Features
Tuesday 26 August 2014 16.15 EDT First published on Tuesday 26 August 2014 16.15 EDT
Tom Cassell may have spent an unexceptional nine hours on Sunday before he finished killing zombies in the Call of Duty video game. But the fact that 120,000 people were watching him unleash pixelated mayhem is why the internet retail giant Amazon thought it was worth paying almost $1bn (£603m) for the website that hosted the broadcast.
The British 21-year-old happens to be the most watched player on Twitch, a YouTube-like website where more than a million people turn on to watch him every month, particularly for his videos of the Lego-style building game Minecraft. But rather than fall into the hands of YouTube's owner, Google, Twitch has ended up in the hands of what is becoming one of its competitors.
Twitch allows gamers worldwide to film themselves playing video games and stream the resulting shows live to the site's total user base of 50 million people monthly. The site has become a key part of the competitive gaming circuit, letting audiences watch professional gamers go head to head.
It is also the adopted home of speedrunners, who aim to break world records for the time taken to finish a game; and it has attracted more oddball broadcasts, such as when 15,000 people gathered online to watch an actual fish called Grayson use a specially designed interface as it swam to control a character in a Pokemon game.
Jeff Bezos, Amazon founder and chief executive – who recently bought the Washington Post with his personal wealth – justified his company's move with a reference to Twitch's audience. "Broadcasting and watching gameplay is a global phenomenon and Twitch has built a platform that brings together tens of millions of people who watch billions of minutes of games each month," he said, before adding: "And, amazingly, Twitch is only three years old."
Twitch began life as a spinoff of the so-called lifecasting site Justin.tv, founded by the entrepreneur Justin Kan in 2007 to broadcast his entire life online, 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Interest in Kan's existence was limited but the tools he and co-founders Emmett Shear, Michael Seibel and Kyle Vogt had built were eventually used to establish Twitch, in 2011.
Today more than half of Twitch's users spend at least 20 hours a week on the site, and in 2013 they watched a total of 200m hours of content every month. Twitch is now the fourth-biggest user of internet capacity in the US, behind Netflix, Apple and Google.
As Twitch has grown, the company has begun to take itself more seriously. For instance, it has started to clamp down on copyright infringements, muting videos for up to half an hour if it detects copyright music being played.
The inevitable corporate evolution, though, has left some Twitch users concerned that the transition from bedroom to television will have unhappy consequences.
Mat Jones, one Twitch broadcaster, said: "As somebody who likes to play music in the background, that's going to prevent that from now on. I'm not going to be able to stream and tell people what I'm listening to right now. But I'm also concerned that Twitch itself isn't going to be able to tell whether something they find in the game is actually breaking copyright rules."
"If a copyrighted song is played in-game, am I going to lose 30 minutes of audio because of that?
"This happened to people who were playing Pokemon, who then, because it had music from Pokemon in it, were hit with the copyright notice."
As for Amazon, it has begun to compete more aggressively with Google. It is going head to head with the search-engine giant with an online advertising product. Traffic heavy Twitch would be another place where the mooted keyword advertising system could be deployed. Monopoly concerns are thought to have been behind Google's decision not to bid for Twitch.
Amazon, originally an online bookstore, has been investing in a range of media industries. It bought the film distribution website LoveFilm and has founded its own computer game division, making titles for its Fire tablets. Since the beginning of 2014, the company has ramped up investment in the division, going on a hiring spree to bulk out the office – including hiring former Bioshock designer Ian Vogel to head the studio.
Brian Blau, of the industry analysts Gartner, said he believed Amazon was just getting started: "Empire building takes time and resources and it appears that, with the Twitch acquisition, Amazon is ready for that challenge."

It did not matter; Avery defeated Miller and became the Representative to the First Congressional District of Kansas in 1955. Many of the Republican members in the United States House of Representatives were inexperienced, which allowed Avery to climb up the ranks quickly. In just his second term, William Avery was able to work in the Interstate and Foreign Commerce Committee and the Rules Committee. Avery believed that he was seen more as a vote than a member, in regards to many of the older Congressmen. "They all said nice things and said they were glad I was there and that gave the Republicans one nearer to the majority than it was before. I don't know whether my physical presence meant much to them but my being there meant something to them."[14] Avery voted in favor of the Civil Rights Acts of 1957,[15] 1960,[16] and 1964.[17]
Eisenhower had taken the Milford Reservoir out of the budget. Now, President Harry Truman had re-appropriated budget money to the project. Avery felt it was his obligation to get this taken out of the budget. He wrote and elegant speech and delivered it to Congress; to no avail. "Cliff Hope was the only congressman from Kansas that voted with me. The other four – Errett P. Scrivner, Edward H. Rees, Wint Smith, and Myron V. George – all voted for the reservoir. I was kind of mad at the time."[18]
Representative William Avery was ready to run for the Governorship in 1965. In an early campaign speech, Avery told Kansas what he wanted to be as their Governor. "I want to be the number one salesman for Kansas." I tied that to, "A job for every young lady and young man graduating from our Kansas schools."[19]
Avery also backed a plan that would give statutory state aid to elementary and secondary schools. "The state aid has been a lifesaver for them because they were strictly relying on an ad valorem tax and they had about reached their limit on that. Now they are providing an educational opportunity for lots of students that never would have had a chance to go to an institution of higher learning. I say that the principal decision I made [as governor] was state aid to education."[20]
Not only had Avery helped state aid to elementary and secondary schools, but also helped establish new help for community colleges. The "war babies" were coming to the age where they would be attending college, many were worried if there would be enough resources to accommodate these students. Avery met with Kansas State University President Jim McCain to discuss the topic. McCain said, "Bill [Avery], we need state support for junior colleges. The war babies, they are just hitting the college level now. We're out of space, we're out of teachers. And some of these students are coming here before they are ready for a four-year college. And instead of opposing that I think you should support junior colleges so they can prepare some of these students for leaving home and adjusting to the curriculum that we have on the collegiate level in Kansas."[21]
Avery was very proud of what his reform did, and how it has weathered the test of time. Avery said, "They didn't repeal any of them. They didn't repeal the withholding tax and didn't repeal the increase in the sales tax. That provided the support for the education programs. Even though none where repealed, that did not change public sentiment towards the raising of their taxes."[22]
Governor William Avery's bid for reelection took place in 1966. Avery was the Republican incumbent to the Governorship and was seeking reelection during a time where he had raised taxes, a big no-no to the Kansas citizens.[23]
His opponent was Democrat Robert Docking. Seeing as Avery's tax hike was controversial, Docking ran on a tax reduction platform. Docking's running strategy focused less on what his policies were, and more on the unpopular policies of Avery. During the summer before the election, Avery's approval rating was 46%.[24]
Towards the end of his campaign, Avery began coming up with gimmicks for reelection. "At the end of the campaign the incumbent governor was looking for anything to help, including doing two hours of "Ask Avery" TV five days before the election, where he took questions from viewers across the state."[25]
Avery lost his bid for reelection, 380,030 to 304,325. There were many reasons Avery believed he lost the election. "On election night Avery blamed the tax issues for his loss, but also noted that voters were frustrated over national problems such as inflation, rising crime rates, the Vietnam War, and student protests. Avery also believed that Kansans continued to be frustrated by school district unification which occurred during Governor John Anderson's term, but which Avery believed had a strong negative lingering effect on him."[26]

Rooms were clean and comfortable, complementary breakfast could use improvement. Would stay there again.
A verified traveler from Maine stayed at Retro Inn at Mesa Verde
Beautiful surroundings but hotel room was a bit dirty & porch light wasn't working & it was really dark at night. The restaurant food was good but service was so bad. No silverware, food took forever, no one checked on our drinks. One lady got up & got her own water.Front desk was not very welcoming. There is a cafe down the road that was nice but isn't open for dinner. We did have lunch down by Spruce house that was good & everyone was nice.

Laugh and Love It
This is a feel-good book for just about anyone. I never put it down without a smile on my face. Father Tim and the town of Mitford, the characters who live there, become reading friends. And I love the surprises that come from their seemingly ordinary lives.
My mother is 87 yrs old and doesn't like the content in the books of today's fiction writers. I found Alibris has a library of Christian fiction writers. I ordered some books for her and she was so excited, she's reading them now and thoroughly enjoys them! I'll be ordering more for her when she's ready.

5.0 out of 5 stars Electonica Kandi at it's best, 26 May 2008
This review is from: Hed Kandi World Series Live From San Francisco (Audio CD)
The freshest Kandi release I've heard in ages, so not to everyones taste ! I normally prefer HK's more chilled albums and Beach House for a more uptempoe groove. This live album mixed by Phil Faversham and Jim Breese is in a class of it's own. I love the electronica backing which has such strong influences of dance music through the decades. Disc 1's first six tracks are superb. This whole mix is predominantly an electro experince, that's quite mind blowing and the tempoe is right for either chilling out or getting you ready for a night out and a perfect intro to the other HK summer series Serve Chilled and Beach House.
4.0 out of 5 stars Stylish and Diverse, 22 Jan. 2008
This review is from: The Remixes 2002-2005 [CD + CD-ROM] (Audio CD)
German outfit Jazzanova are elite in downtempo rhythms and grooves, there own album Inbetween was awesome ! For 2002-2005 remixes the tempoe is more urban downtempoe R&B flavours with a bit of diversity as the West German outfit remix MAW/Roy Ayers old school vibes to Eddie Gayles jazz and Marcos Valle's latin to Calexico's indie style. But the whole jazzanova concept overhadowing mixes cover a seventies feel with the solid rhythm of Jazzanova and it's mellower than the more drum and based previous Jazzanova remixes, but just as good or even better. Don't pass this one by!!
4.0 out of 5 stars Quite a compulsive read, 6 Oct. 2007
Being an offspring of British West Indian parents of The Windrush generation , I could somewhat relate to area's of this book via some of my parent's experiences. For Andrea Levy's Small Island I found it compulsive once it got going and Levy's post war prose brought echoes to me of JG Ballards Empire of the Sun and even reminded me in areas of Sebastian Faulks Birdsong , with such a vivid picture of post war Britains gloom and depression, I could almost feel the damp fog see the old black Morris's and see the shabby terraces. Written in the first person gave a good insight in to each character's minds .An opression and shattered dreams of a Great British empire were exposed. As was the blatant racism ,hatred and betrayal these immigrants suffered in the UK. Small island is a good read quite a tough 2nd world war story in which taboo interacial love merges with curiosity.This one was worth both prizes it received, and great to see a Comonwealth writer getting this critical acclaim.
Hed Kandi 69 - Beach House
5.0 out of 5 stars Quality summer beats, 27 July 2007
This review is from: Hed Kandi 69 - Beach House (Audio CD)
Beach House is one of my favourite in Kandi's series . For 69 the sound's unmistakably beach house's lighter dance grooves exploring this unique chilled mid to up tempoe trip through, laid back house, latin , jazzy and electronic baleiric pop flavours, without going in to overkill.This is more of a vintage Kandi collection for the old Kandi followers with favourite names such as MJ Cole, Miguel Migs,Physics also ,other poolside movers from Roachford and Hotchip The Hed Kandi team have brought out another winner for the summer pre- club .party warm up to go well with Served Chilled, for the after hours wind down
4.0 out of 5 stars New Directions in The Cinematic's late night moves, 29 May 2007
5.0 out of 5 stars I LIKE IT!, 23 May 2007
I've not been keen on current Hed Kandi releases since Mark Doyle's departure and The Minitry of Sounds aquisition of the label, I preferred the label before it had grown to the" Now "! of Dance music, with a Kandi airline and guaranteed top twenty compilations , it's become to comercial for me , and have not enjoyed most of the compilations. For Serve chilled it's given a thumbs up of quality electronica, latin and soul flavours sundrenched downbeats. Disc 2 is more uptempoe , but still with enough ecelectic grooves to chill out to. There's elements of disco and glam. I must give full credits to the new succesful Hed Kandi Team on bringing out a quality collection of selective grooves This is a must to import to your Mp3 to take with you on your hols.

Otherwise, thebackup location defaults to an operatingsystem-specific directory on disk.When backing up to disk, the logicalblock size of the database file must be aneven multiple of the physical block size of the destination device. For example, adevice of type DISK with a block size of 2KB can only be used as a destination forbackups of database files with logicalblock sizes of 2 KB, 4 KB, 6 KB, and so on.Most disk drives have physical block sizesof 512 bytes, so this limitation rarelyaffects backup to disk drives.Nevertheless, you can encounter thislimitation when backing up to a writableDVD or a device that has a larger physicalblock size.CONFI
URE DEFAULTDEVICE TYPE TO sbtSpecifies that backups should go to tapeby default.
After RMAN is able to communicate withthe media manager, you can configureRMAN to make backups to tape andspecify SBT as the default device type.
The RMAN client directs database server sessions to perform all backup and recoverytasks. What constitutes a session depends on the operating system. For example, onLinux, a server session corresponds to a server process, whereas on Windows itcorresponds to a thread within the database server.The RMAN client itself does not perform backup, restore, or recovery operations.When you connect the RMAN client to a target database, RMAN allocates serversessions on the target instance and directs them to perform the operations.An RMAN channel represents one stream of data to a device, and corresponds toone database server session. The channel reads data into memory, processes it, andwrites it to the output device.Configuring Channel for Disk

The priority scheme is directed to systems and techniques for storing and retrieving data from memory. A command queue may be used to receive a plurality of commands, each of the commands requesting access to the memory. A command selector may be used to evaluate a block the of the commands in the command queue to select one of the commands from the block to execute, and execute the selected command. Images(7) Claims(28)
BACKGROUND 1. Field The present disclosure relates generally to memories, and more specifically, to a command execution priority scheme for memories. 2. Background Memories are used extensively today in digital systems to store data needed by various processing entities. Most memories are internally structured with a number of memory banks. Each memory bank may be addressed individually as an array of rows and columns. This means that the various processing entities can access data from each memory bank in parallel by issuing the appropriate read or write command. A memory controller may be used to manage access to the memory banks by the various processing entities. The memory controller receives read and write commands into a command queue, and executes the commands in the order they are received. The delay associated with the execution of each command depends on whether an open page in a memory bank is being accessed. A �page� is normally associated with a row of memory, and an �open page� means that the memory bank is pointing to a row of memory and requires only a column address strobe from the memory controller to access the memory location. To access an unopened page of a memory bank, the memory controller must present a row address strobe to the memory bank to move the pointer before presenting a column address strobe. As a result, the latency of the system may be adversely impacted every time a new page is accessed in a memory bank. In addition to the latency, a large amount of power may be required to open a new page in a memory bank. This may be of paramount concern in battery operated devices, such as cellular and wireless telephones, laptops, personal digital assistants (PDA), and the like. If the sequence of commands from the various processing entities cause an excessive amount of pages in a memory bank to be opened and closed, then the life of the battery may be substantially reduced. SUMMARY In one aspect of the present invention, a method of storing and retrieving data from memory includes receiving a plurality of commands into a command queue, each of the commands requesting access to the memory, evaluating a block of the commands in the command queue to select one of the commands from the block to execute, and executing the selected command. In another aspect of the present invention, a memory system includes memory, a command queue configured to receive a plurality of commands, each of the commands requesting access to the memory, and a command selector configured to evaluate a block of the commands in the command queue to select one of the commands from the block to execute, and to execute the selected command. In yet another aspect of the present invention, a memory system includes memory, a command queue configured to receive a plurality of commands, each of the commands requesting access to the memory, means for evaluating a block of the commands in the command queue to select one of the commands from the block to execute, and means for executing the selected command. It is understood that other embodiments of the present invention will become readily apparent to those skilled in the art from the following detailed description, wherein various embodiments of the invention are shown and described by way of illustration. As will be realized, the invention is capable of other and different embodiments and its several details are capable of modification in various other respects, all without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Accordingly, the drawings and detailed description are to be regarded as illustrative in nature and not as restrictive.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION The detailed description set forth below in connection with the appended drawings is intended as a description of various embodiments of the present invention and is not intended to represent the only embodiments in which the present invention may be practiced. The detailed description includes specific details for the purpose of providing a thorough understanding of the present invention. However, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention may be practiced without these specific details. In some instances, well-known structures and components are shown in block diagram form in order to avoid obscuring the concepts of the present invention. FIG. 1 is a conceptual block diagram illustrating an example of a memory system. The memory system 100 may include memory 102, which is shown with four banks 102a-102d, but may have any number of banks depending on the particular application and overall design constraints. The memory 102 may be a Synchronous Dynamic Random Access Memory (SDRAM), or any other type of memory. A memory controller 104 may be used to manage access to the memory banks 102 a-102 d by various processing entities (not shown). The memory controller 104 may include a command queue 106 to buffer the commands from the processing entities. Although not shown, the memory controller 106 may also include a data queue for storing and retrieving data to and from the memory banks. An input/output (I/O) device 108 may provide an interface to a bus, or any other communication medium. A command selector 110, or any other type of processing element, may be used to execute the commands from the command queue 106 to access the memory banks 102 a-102 d. FIG. 2 is a conceptual block diagram illustrating another example of a memory system. In this embodiment, the memory controller 104 may include a separate command queue for each memory bank, and in this case, the memory controller 104 includes four command queues 106 a-106 d. The I/O device 108, in addition to providing an interface to the communication medium, may be used to determine the destination memory bank for each command received from the communication medium, and store that command in the appropriate command queue. A reduction in latency and power consumption may be achieved by reordering the commands received by the memory controller 104 to minimize the number of times that pages are opened and closed in the memory 102. For the purposes of illustration, various techniques for reducing latency and power consumption will be described in the context of a memory system having a separate command queue for each memory bank with the understanding that these techniques may be extended to a memory system with a single command queue supporting one or more memory banks. FIG. 3 is a conceptual block diagram illustrating an example of a memory system in which the commands received by a command queue 106 for one of the memory banks 104′ may be reordered to reduce latency and power consumption. In this configuration, the commands may be reordered independent of the commands for the other memory banks. The command queue 106 may be a first-in-first out (FIFO) memory, or any other type of storage device. A command selector buffer 112 may be disposed between the command queue 106 and the command selector 110. The command selector buffer 112 may be configured with four independent registers 112 a-112 d, although it may be configured with any number of registers depending on the design preferences of the skilled artisan, the particular application of the memory system, and the overall design constraints. The command queue 106 may be configured to load commands into an input register 112 a, and the command selector 110 may be configured to retrieve commands from the input register 112 a. The command selector 110 may also have exclusive access to the remaining three hold registers 112 b-112 d. In operation, the command selector 110 retrieves the commands from the four registers 112 a-112 b in the command selector buffer 112, and selects one of the four commands to execute. The command selector 110 makes this selection based on a control algorithm designed to reduce latency and power consumption by minimizing the number of times that pages are opened and closed in the corresponding memory bank 104′. Once the command selector 110 makes a selection, it executes the selected command, resulting in a read or write operation to the memory bank 104′. The three unselected commands are loaded back into the hold registers 112 b-112 d, and a new command from the command queue 106 is loaded into the input register 112 a. The process may then be repeated. An example of a control algorithm that may be implemented by the command selector 110 will now be described with the understanding that the command selector 110 may implement various other algorithms that fall within the scope of the present invention. The control algorithm may be applied to a command queue capable of supporting a single memory bank, or alternatively, an entire memory device. The entire device may be constructed with one or more memory banks. In one embodiment, the control algorithm may be configured to select a command from the command selector buffer 112 to an open page in the memory before selecting a command to an unopened page. Multiple commands to an open page in the memory may be reordered to perform read operations before write operations as long as the commands are from different processing entities. If a read and write operation is issued by the same processing entity, it may be important to maintain the sequence of the commands. A source identifier may be included in command so that the memory controller 110 can determine whether multiple commands are from the same processing entity. If there are no commands in the command selector buffer 112 to an open page in the memory, then a command to an unopened page in the memory may be executed. A read operation may be given priority over a write operation. An example of this control algorithm is illustrated in the flow diagram of FIG. 4. In block 402, the control algorithm may determine whether there are any commands in the command selector buffer to an open page in the memory. If all the commands in the command selector buffer are to unopened pages in the memory, then the control algorithm may determine whether there are any commands in command selector buffer for a read operation in block 404. If there are one or more commands in the command selector buffer for a read operation, the control algorithm may select the oldest one to execute in block 406. Otherwise, the control algorithm may select the oldest write operation command to execute in block 408. Returning to block 402, if the control algorithm determines that there are one or more commands in the command selector buffer to an open page in the memory, the control algorithm may then determine, in block 410, whether there are more than one. If there is only one command in the command selector buffer to an open page in the memory, then the control algorithm may select that command to be executed in block 412. If, on the other hand, the control algorithm determines that there are more than one, then the source identifier for each may be checked, in block 414, to determine whether there are multiple commands from the same processing entity. If there are, the control algorithm may execute the oldest command to an open page in the memory in block 416. Otherwise, the control algorithm may determine, in block 418, whether there are any commands in the command selector buffer for a read operation to an open page in the memory. If so, the control algorithm may execute the oldest one in block 420. Otherwise, the control algorithm may execute the oldest write operation command in the command selector buffer to an open page in the memory in block 422. As can be seen from FIG. 4, priority is given to various types of commands throughout the execution of the control algorithm by the command selector. By way of example, priority may be given to a command to an open page of memory rather than a closed page. For any given page in the memory, priority may be given to a command for a read operation over a write operation. In at least one embodiment of the memory controller, one or more priorities implemented in the algorithm may be enabled or disabled with programmable data in a control register. By way of example, the priority for a read operation over a write operation among multiple commands to an open page in the memory from the same processing entity may be disabled as shown in FIG. 5. Referring to FIG. 5, if the control algorithm determines that there are no commands in the command selector buffer to an open page in the memory in block 402, then the selection process remains unchanged. The same is true if the selection algorithm determines, in blocks 402 and 410, that there is one, and only one, command in the command selector buffer to an open page in the memory. However, if the control algorithm determines, in blocks 402 and 410, that there are multiple commands in the command selector buffer to an open page opened in the memory, then the algorithm may simply chose the oldest one to execute in step 502, rather than giving priority to read operations. Alternatively, the priority of a read operation over a write operation may be disabled when all the commands in the command selector buffer are to an unopened page in the memory as shown in FIG. 6. If the control algorithm determines that there is at least one command in the command selector buffer to an open page in the memory in block 402, then the selection process remains unchanged. However, if the control algorithm determines, in block 402, that there are no commands in the command selector buffer to an open page in the memory, then the algorithm may simply chose the oldest command in the command selector buffer to execute in step 602, rather than giving priority to read operations.
