Mac: AppleIntelCPUPowerManangement Kernel Panic

After upgrading from Mac OS X Mavericks 10.9.2 to 10.9.3, my machine (HP Probook 4530s) ran into AppleIntelCPUPowerManangement Kernel panic, and to my surprise none of the boot flags helped me to boot into the system.
I decided to do a fresh install, but even booting from USB resulted the same. Then I decided to remove AppleIntelCPUPowerManangement.kext, but I can't even access terminal.

Here's the solution:
My machine dual boots Windows and Mac.

I logged into Windows
Installed MacDrive, trial version
Rebooted into windows and opened the drive on which Mac is installed
Did two things, don't know which one helped:

Opened /Extra/org.chameleon.Boot.plist with a text editor and added the following code:

<key>GenerateCStates</key>
<string>No</string>
<key>GeneratePStates</key>
<string>No</string>

And deleted AppleIntelCPUPowerManangement related kexts from this directory:

/System/Library/Extensions/

I found two kext folders related to it and deleted both.

Rebooted without any boot flags and voila. It worked.

OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion bootable USB (without MAC)

Download the raw file from here . How to use: 1 - Copy the .raw file to an USB stick using SUSE Studio Image Writer . If you have error during copy, eject and re-connect the pen drive. When Windows asks if you want to format it, cancel and run Image Writer again. If the problem persists, disable your anti-virus software, it may be blocking raw write to the drive. Another Image Writer for Windows, if SUSE doesn't work https://launchpad.net/win32-image-writer/+download 2 - Boot the USB drive and install.

Java: Use BigInteger in for-loop

In my previous post , I mentioned a way to handle large integers by using BigInteger. Now I'm going to provide a very important usage of it. We often use for-loop. So here is the way to use it: Ordinary integers: for(int i = 1; i <= n; i++) { //Task to do } BigInteger: for (BigInteger bi = BigInteger.valueOf(1); bi.compareTo(n) <= 0; bi = bi.add(BigInteger.ONE)) { //Task to do } here n is a BigInteger variable.
