Thanks to the guys over at Latino-Review, we now know that Grant Gustin is one of the top three actors that the CW are considering for the role of Barry Allen/The Flash in Arrow. It's apparently now down to him and (as we heard earlier today) Parkland's Matt Barr and little-known James Mackay. Gustin is 23 years old and is best known for starring in 90210 and Glee, although Barr is arguably the most suitable choice for the character so far mentioned. He also has the right sort of physique that the network so prominently feature on their promos...what do you guys think?

The Hollywood Reporter confirms that it will be Grant Gustin who brings Barry Allen to life in the second season of Arrow and a potential spin-off of his own. "I?m unbelievably excited," the Glee actor told the site. "I?ve been a lifelong fan of DC Comics, so I can?t be more honored and can?t wait to get started." The plan for the character to appear in three episode of Arrow remains the same, with his final appearance planned as a back door pilot of his own series. However, how exactly will the grounded CW series deal with the introduction of the super speedster? "Part of the fun for the audience is to see how we view our Arrow take on the Flash legacy," Andrew Kreisberg said. "Some of it will feel very familiar to DC Comics, some of it hopefully will feel different, fresh and exciting. The same way we approached Arrow is the same way we're approaching Barry. There will be extraordinary events in the world and the characters will react in the same way" Barry Allen is described as being a Central City assistant police forensic investigator who comes to Starling City to look into a series of unexplained robberies which he believes may be connected to his tragic past. As a comic book fanboy, Allen is apparently obsessed with Arrow and ends up working with Oliver and Felicity before crossing paths with the vigilante.

Arrow co-creator Andrew Kreisberg has revealed what fans can expect from the show's version of the Black Canary.

The DC Comics heroine will feature in the TV drama's second season, portrayed by Mad Men actress Caity Lotz.

"She's a new player in town," Kreisberg told Entertainment Weekly. "A vigilante who avenges wronged women.

"[she] seems to have a fixation on the Arrow (Stephen Amell) and our team is trying to figure out why."

The original version of Black Canary - created by Robert Kanigher and Carmine Infantino - made her comics debut in August 1947 in Flash Comics #86.

Arrow will also introduce costumed superhero The Flash in its new season, with Glee star Grant Gustin playing the Scarlet Speedster.

The series returns to The CW on October 9, with Sky1 airing season two in the UK at a later date.

Copycat superheroes? Say it ain't so!

http://www.croatiantimes.com/news/Around_the_World/2013-05-08/33319/Cops_Hunt_Explosive_Arrow_Firing_Superhero_Copycat

German police are hunting a bowman who has been impersonating Marvel action hero Hawkeye by creating explosive arrows that in at least one case caused a massive fire that needed more than a dozen firemen to extinguish.

A police spokesman said: "Arrows are not toys, and especially arrows that have been rigged up to explode are something that we treat very seriously."

Dylan Neal To Play 'Amazo' Creator 'Dr. Anthony Ivo' In Season Two Of ARROW

Screen Crush have revealed that the latest DC comic book character to be brought to life on the small screen in Arrow will be 'Dr. Anthony Ivo'. Dylan Neal (whose credits include Cedar Cove, Human Target and Smallville) has been chosen to play him. However, in his first appearance - the fifth episode which is entitled "League of Assassins" - he will appear in Oliver's island flashbacks rather than Starling City. As this is set to be a four episode arc though, it's certainly likely that we'll see him return to make Ollie's life difficult further down the line as the site mentions that the door is open for recurring appearances. They describe Arrow's take on the villain as, " a brutal but ruthless scientist who will stop at nothing to unearth a breakthrough that dates back to the latter days of World War II." Ivo is also the creator of the android 'Amazo'.

As speculated at this summer?s San Diego Comic-Con ? given the talent RSVP list for the sophomore superhero drama?s panel discussion ? John Barrowman is set to reprise his role as Malcolm Merlyn aka The Dark Archer sometime during Season 2, TVLine can confirm.

 

A spokesperson for The CW would not say in what form Malcolm, who in the finale was last seen having an arrow thrust through his chest by The Hood, will resurface ? in a dream (OK, nightmare) sequence, flashback, as a ?ghost? or in the big, bad flesh ? but TVLine hears the character will appear in at least two episodes.

      I'm too old to return to the "good old days" when I was installing custom ROMs and tinkering with my devices - now I just want to turn it on and use it. I've read that banking and payment apps work on Murena /e/OS (I'll have to check the ones I use) and I also really want to support Fairphone 😉

    • NVIDIA announces 35 new AI HPC supercomputers across Europe

      By Fiza Ali · Posted

      NVIDIA announces 35 new AI HPC supercomputers across Europe by Fiza Ali NVIDIA has announced that 35 AI high-performance computing (HPC) supercomputers are planned to open throughout Europe this year. This marks what the company describes as the largest single-year expansion of AI infrastructure in the history of the continent. These new systems, unveiled at ISC High Performance 2026, will be placed at a number of national supercomputing centres, AI factories, and research institutes to provide advanced computing resources to more than three million researchers. Describing AI, NVIDIA founder and CEO Jensen Huang stated, "AI is the new instrument of science, and Europe is building the infrastructure to put it in the hands of millions of researchers." Built on NVIDIA's Blackwell and Hopper architectures, the new systems will support research in climate science, healthcare, clean energy, quantum computing, and other scientific fields. Among the major projects are the Barcelona Supercomputing Center's MareNostrum 5 AI upgrade, BavariaAI's Blue Swan platform in Germany, Italy's IT4LIA AI factory, Germany's HammerHAI project, and Sweden's Mimer AI Factory. The Barcelona Supercomputing Center plans to expand MareNostrum 5 with NVIDIA GB300 NVL72 and GB200 NVL4 systems. In total, the BSC expects to deliver up to 20 exaflops of AI training performance and 33 exaflops of AI inference performance. This increased computational capability will support research efforts related to climate modelling, biotechnology, energy systems, etc. Furthermore, as part of the IT4LIA project, more than 8,000 GPUs, each based on NVIDIA’s GB200 NVL4 architecture, will be used in Italy. This represents one of the largest AI factory initiatives announced to date. Additionally, the Blue Swan platform from BavariaAI will include about 1,000 GPUs to help develop multimodal AI models for use in the medical field, robotics, and various areas of scientific research. NVIDIA also emphasized in the announcement how rapidly growth of accelerated computing usage is taking place within both energy and climate-related research. The company said Siemens Energy uses NVIDIA-powered technologies to significantly accelerate the process of designing and simulating hydrogen-capable gas turbines. Using those same acceleration technologies, Siemens was able to reduce simulation time by up to 77 percent. The company also highlighted several quantum computing initiatives across Europe. CINECA, EuroHPC, and Pasqal are integrating a quantum processing unit into Italy's CINECA supercomputing centre using NVIDIA's CUDA-Q platform. Meanwhile, researchers at Germany's Julich Supercomputing Centre recently simulated a universal 50-qubit quantum computer on the JUPITER supercomputer. The announcement demonstrates Europe's continued commitment to building out its infrastructure supporting AI and supercomputing as governments, research organizations, and technology companies compete to build out their respective computing capacities and secure their positions in advanced scientific research.
