Abstract: A handheld system and method for storing and grinding herbs—such as, but not limited to tobacco, marijuana and the like. The device having three main components: a first component being a two-part, hermetically sealed case allowing herbs to be stored therein; a second component being a crusher with axial star blades; and a third component being a finger wheel allowing a user to rotated said crusher thereby reducing herb clusters to a consistent aggregate according to a user's preference. The hermetically sealed case allowing a user to then store aggregated herbs therein. An object of the invention is to allow a user to crush and store herbs in a portable, sealed container.

Abstract: A computing system comprises one or more cores. Each core comprises a processor and switch with each processor coupled to a communication network among the cores. Also disclosed are techniques for implementing an adaptive last level allocation policy in a last level cache in a multicore system receiving one or more new blocks for allocating for storage in the cache, accessing a selected profile from plural profiles that define allocation actions, according to a least recently used type of allocation and based on a cache action, a state bit, and traffic pattern type for the new blocks of data and handling the new block according to the selected profile for a selected least recently used (LRU) position in the cache.
