PIX (originally short for Performance Investigator for Xbox) is a performance analysis tool from Microsoft that can help software developers maximize the efficiency of Direct3D applications. Originally for the Xbox video game console, Microsoft has released it for the Windows platform as part of the Microsoft DirectX SDK to aid game developers.
PIX can take a snapshot of an application running, store the calls to Direct3D and data used in that single frame, and recreate the frame step-by-step, allowing the programmer to see the intermediate contents of various buffers and devices, debug individual vertices and pixels, or see which call took the most processing time.
Pow! is an album by saxophonist Sonny Stitt featuring trombonist Benny Green recorded in 1965 and released on the Prestige label in 1967.
Allmusic awarded the album 4 stars stating "Altoist Sonny Stitt and trombonist Benny Green make for a potent team on this spirited quintet set... the two distinctive horns (along with pianist Kirk Lightsey, bassist Herman Wright and drummer Roy Brooks) have little difficulty essaying these bop pieces, blues and ballads, and their personable styles match well together".
All compositions by Carpenter and Bruce except as indicated
Pow! (Chinese: 四十一炮; pinyin: sìshíyī pào) is a 2003 novel by the Chinese author and Nobel laureate Mo Yan. The novel's protagonist is Luo Xiaotong, a village boy with a passion for story-telling. It is set in a temple, where Luo recounts the story of his life to an old monk. He describes the difficult circumstances of his childhood in the "Slaughterhouse Village," a fictional town in which the population is obsessed with the consumption of meat and where corruption is rife.
The novel has been interpreted as an allegorical commentary on the state of contemporary Chinese society, though Mo himself maintains that he is merely a storyteller, uninterested in ideology.
Pow! was a weekly British comic book magazine published by Odhams Press in 1967 and 1968 from their headquarters at 64 Long Acre, London. Part of their Power Comics imprint, it was printed on newsprint stock, in black-and-white except for its colour front and back covers, and initially comprised 28 pages.
Pow! first appeared on 21 January 1967. With its 53rd issue, dated 13 January 1968, it merged with its sister title Wham! to form Pow and Wham. The 86th and final issue appeared on 7 September 1968, after which it merged into Smash!, another of the Power Comics line.
It is unrelated to POW! Entertainment, an American media production company.
Pow! was owned by IPC, the International Publishing Corporation, a company formed in 1963 by Cecil Harmsworth King, chairman of the Daily Mirror and Sunday Pictorial (now the Sunday Mirror), through a series of corporate mergers. All of the comics published by IPC were under the control of one or other of the subsidiary companies which King had brought together to form IPC, including Fleetway Publications Ltd and Odhams Press.
You know, we know what we are fighting for.
Run, run, run for your rights,
Raise your black gloved fists in the bloody dark sky.
No shoes, just black socks,
looking down the ground, facing down their eyes.
From China to Mexico, respect the Human Rights.
From the podium to the freedom,
