Managing Cloud Costs with Kubernetes: 5 Questions You Should Be Asking
6 Min Read
Kubernetes has quickly emerged as one of the leading cloud technologies—and for good reason. Kubernetes makes it possible to deploy modern applications that are scalable, modular, and fault-tolerant. You declare the state you need your environment to be in and it constantly works to maintain that state, which frees up developers from manual tasks around infrastructure management.
With all the benefits of Kubernetes, there are also challenges. When more and more teams start to adopt containers and Kubernetes to develop and deliver their applications, your landscape can quickly become crowded and fragmented.
FinOps for Kubernetes: Unpacking Container Cost Allocation and Optimization
This is where a Cloud Center of Excellence (CCoE) comes in. The CCoE can bring together key stakeholders across the organization from development, finance, and operations for a unified approach to cloud management within your organization. And when it comes to understanding, optimizing, and reporting on your cloud costs with Kubernetes, we’ve identified five key questions your CCoE should be asking.
1. What are our key KPIs?
Especially as an organization scales, teams can quickly start working in silos and reporting on different things. As a first step to optimizing your Kubernetes cloud financial management, it’s important that everyone is working towards the same KPIs and reporting on the same metrics.
For example, an organization just built new microservices in Kubernetes and the applications team is reporting on the cost of the microservices. This is all well and good, but at some point comes the question—what is the business producing from these cloud services specifically, and how does the cost of the services align to the business’ production?
A CCoE can help identify the most important KPIs to the business, and then align different business units to ensure everyone tracks the same metrics and is utilizing cloud resources for the same bottom line.
2. How do we connect the dots between our application constructs and our KPIs?
Let’s say your organization aligned on a KPI: cost per product line. If you’re lucky, you know exactly which application relates to which product line and this is delineated within your infrastructure already. For example, you’ve set up a Kubernetes cluster per product line, or you have a label across pods that delineates the product line. Often however, this isn’t the case until it’s too late.
Below is an example of how easy it is for two different teams to use labels and namespace in different ways with different interpretations of value. Team A uses namespace by developer, while Team B uses it by microservice. It’s important to standardize on definitions and labels in your Kubernetes cloud infrastructure to ensure consistency and governance. As a best practice, you can set up automated governance checks to ensure this is always the case.
kubernetes cloud infrastructure costs and labels
Once you have defined labels and definitions, you can start to think about how to group and allocate costs. With modern apps and Kubernetes however, it isn’t always a straight line. You have to consider thousands to millions of lines of billing data per day, along with services shared across teams. If you have worker nodes (VMs) with multiple pods and each pod serves a different product line, you can’t just group these costs. You need to split the shared ratio of those costs based on which product line used which costs. This leads us to our next question.
3. How do we allocate the costs of our cloud services?
In Kubernetes, you can use resource requests, where developers control the amount of CPU and memory resources per pod or container by setting the resource request field in the configuration file. With resource requests, there are two different ways to think about allocating costs—by the amount that was provisioned, or by the amount that was used. We’ll outline some key considerations for either model below.
kubernetes containers resources cloud costs comparison
Allocating cloud service costs by resource requests
If you decide to allocate cloud service costs by the amount that was provisioned, then the team requesting those resources needs to be able to pay for them, regardless if they used all of them or not. The benefits of this model are that all costs of cloud services will always be allocated and accounted for, and teams will be incentivized to only provision what they will actually use.
A challenge is that not all organizations have visibility or accurate predictability into the resources they’ll need. As a result, teams may under-specify requirements in an effort to save costs, and their app might not have what it needs to run effectively, or at all.
Allocating cloud service costs by usage
On the other hand, you can allocate costs by usage so teams are only paying for what they actually use. Makes sense right? However, it’s rare that teams use 100% of what’s been provisioned, which begs the question—who pays for the idle time and unused resources? Additionally, paying by usage can incentivize teams to provision more than they need and not actually pay for it.
In working closely with our customers, we’ve found organizations opting for the first option— allocating costs by resource requests, which helps to streamline questions around who pays for underutilized resources and encourages teams not to overprovision. Which model you choose depends on the organization, but in either case the principle holds—if your usage is lower than what you request, you’re wasting money. If it’s higher, you risk development or performance issues. That’s why it’s important to have the right tools in place and visibility into your environment.
4. Who pays for common services?
We’ve covered individual cloud services and requests that directly support a single application, but you can’t forget about common services. If you look at a Kubernetes cluster, you have core services like a control pane, log service, or service mesh (which scales as apps scale) that various teams benefit from. Should costs be split evenly across all product lines? Or should they be split proportionally based on usage? Or is there a central cost center that covers these platform costs? Different teams will have different answers, but it’s important to consider these questions for consistency and clarity in your cloud financial management practice.
5. What are my optimization opportunities?
Now for the question everyone’s been waiting for—how do we optimize our cloud costs? The good news is that Kubernetes is flexible. The bad news is that Kubernetes is flexible, so there are multiple optimization components to consider. There are four primary ways to optimize your Kubernetes cloud costs:
1. Pod rightsizing (what we mentioned earlier about resource requests)
2. Node rightsizing (VM rightsizing)
3. Autoscaling (horizontal pod autoscaling, cluster autoscaling)
4. Leveraging cloud discounts (reserved instances, spot, savings plans)
In part two of this blog series, we’ll go into more detail about each of these four methods, but to learn more now, we encourage you to watch the recording of our session during the Angelbeat Virtual Seminar focused on Kubernetes, cloud-native design, app modernization, and migration.

Don't Let Your Clients End Up In Court
Public Accountant magazine, April 2012
Going by the headlines, you could be forgiven for thinking that the legal world revolves solely around corporate titans suing each other, high profile divorce proceedings and bizarre cases such as people getting massive payouts from their local council for falling over jutting paving stones.
But headlines tell only part of the story. Just as there’s a lot more to accounting than the latest changes to Super, most activity in the legal profession goes unreported. And here’s a fact that may surprise you: one of the fastest growing classes of action in the Supreme Court today involves ordinary people who lead everyday lives. I am referring to estate litigation, which is what happens when disgruntled beneficiaries and relatives challenge the will of the recently departed.
Even thirty years ago, these cases were relatively rare. But times have changed because of two potent dynamics. The first of these is the value of estates. Despite the adverse impact of the GFC on most people’s superannuation accounts, sustained property values, and the impact of people like yourself is seeing the net worth of Australians continue to rise. What happens when richer people die? Simply put, the larger the estate, the more likely it is for a will to be challenged. In my experience, an estate valued at $1 million or more is very likely to see beneficiaries, or those who believe they should be, emerge to stake their claim. And with property prices the way they are, many homes that were seen as quite modest back in the ‘70s or ‘80s are now worth very much more than that.
The second dynamic is the increasing trend to more complex families. Gone are the days of Mum, Dad and the two kids, with a will in the filing cabinet still valid twenty years after it was first drafted. The social reality of de facto relationships, increasing divorce, step children and blended families also greatly expands the range of people who may feel some sense of entitlement when a person dies and who may want to step forward to challenge a will.
What happens next? This depends to a large extent on the motivation of those involved – and how well the will itself is drafted. A negotiated settlement is the preferred option. But if a dispute can’t be resolved by negotiation, then the only option is litigation, where the warring parties present their case to the Court – usually at considerable emotional as well as financial cost. Rarely will the Court’s determination satisfy everyone.
All of which begs the question: what can you, as an accountant, do to protect your clients? The answer comes in what I call the Three Golden Rules of Estate Planning.
The first of these is to ensure that your client has a will that is both well considered and properly drafted so that not only are your client’s intentions clear, but they are presented in such a way that discourages a challenge. Your clients may believe they can save money by drafting a ‘Do It Yourself’ will, but the reality is that many such wills rarely withstand attack should a dissatisfied relative make an appearance. Instead, the turmoil and expense is often vastly disproportionate to the relatively small cost of having a will properly drafted to begin with.
The second golden rule is to have in place whatever additional legal instruments are required to manage assets outside the estate – such as the trust deed of a SMSF. Are there any family or other trusts whose assets need to be transferred, and if so are the instructions for these legally valid and watertight?
Thirdly, with the constantly changing landscape, including both assets and the structures in which they’re held, as well as your clients’ ever shifting personal lives, estate plans need to be reviewed regularly. I recommend once every 18 months, perhaps as part of your regular client reviews, to ensure that legal arrangements are still relevant and comprehensive.
Many accountants see themselves as advisers not only to their clients, but to their clients’ nearest and dearest. Ensuring robust estate planning has to be part of any holistic wealth management plan. And observing the Three Golden Rules is the best way to help ensure that your clients – or their relatives - don’t end up in Court.

Key concepts
Sound waves
Did you know that not all animals use their ears to hear sounds? Snakes, for example, perceive sound waves through their jawbones! And many insects perceive sound waves through their antennae. Although these methods of detecting sound might be different, they all respond to the same thing that our ears do, which is sound waves in the environment. In this activity, you will generate some impressive sound waves from very simple materials and observe how these sound waves are generated. Get ready to make some noise!
Sound reaches our ears in the form of sound waves. Similar to an ocean wave, sound waves are created by vibrations or movement in a given medium. When the wave is in the ocean, the medium is the water. In the case of sound waves, the medium that the waves travel through is the air around us. Just like an ocean wave can originate from someone jumping into the water, a sound wave originates from a vibrating object, such as a tuning fork or guitar string.
When someone jumps into the ocean they displace the water around them and cause water molecules to bump into each other. Those water molecules bump into other water molecules, and the wave is propagated through the water. In a similar manner, when a guitar string is plucked the string vibrates, disturbing the air particles all around it. These air particles bump into air particles around them, propagating the sound wave through the air. These particles vibrate at the same frequency (or rate) as the vibration of the guitar string.
Sound waves with different frequencies sound different to our ears. We perceive higher-frequency sound waves as higher-pitched sounds. Similarly, lower-frequency sound waves have a lower perceived pitch. In this activity you will be creating an instrument and using it to explore the properties of sound waves.
• Piece of paper
• Pair of scissors
• Ruler
• Use your scissors to cut a three-inch by eight-and-a-half-inch rectangle from your paper.
• Fold your rectangle in half lengthwise so that the shorter ends are touching. Make a strong crease.
• With your rectangle folded, fold each end back up to the middle crease, in the opposite direction of your original fold. Your paper should have three folds so that it's in the shape of a "W" when viewed from the side.
• Turn your paper around so that your first fold is facing toward you.
• Holding the paper folded, use your scissors to cut a small triangle (one-quarter inch to one-half inch at the base) at the center of the fold. If you open the paper up, it should look like a small diamond.
• Keeping the paper folded, turn it around so that the cutout is on the side facing away from you.
• Hold the paper horizontally so that it looks a little like a paper mouth.
• Gently press the two lips of the paper mouth to your own lips. Hold it in place by pressing your pointer or middle fingers into the top crease, and your thumbs into the bottom crease.
• Keeping your lips parted, forcefully blow out (don't purse your lips, keep them relaxed).
• If you don't hear a sound right away, try opening your mouth slightly wider, and open your paper mouth slightly wider as well.
• Try slightly different configurations until you get a strong squawk—you'll know it when you hear it!
• Practice your squawking while making observations. What do you notice about the paper when you're squawking? Does it move? How would you describe the movement?
• Find the smallest possible gap you can have between the lips of your paper mouth while still getting a sound. Listen to the sound. What does it sound like?
• Find the largest possible gap you can have between the lips of your paper mouth while still getting a sound. Listen to the sound. How does the sound differ when the gap is smaller compared to when it is wider? Does one sound lower or higher than the other?
• Extra: Test different-sized triangle cutouts. How does the size of the cutout affect the sound and performance of your squawker?
Observations and results
In this activity you created a lot of noise while exploring the physics of sound! You should have observed that as your paper squawked it also vibrated gently in your hand. This tells you something about the sound that you're generating with your squawker. As you blow into it, you cause the paper to vibrate. Those vibrations generate sound waves, and when those sound waves reach our ears we perceive them as a distinct squawking sound.
When you made the gap smaller in your squawker you should have noticed that the sound became higher pitched. Because you were forcing the same amount of air through a smaller space, you caused the paper to vibrate more quickly. Our ears perceive those faster vibrations as a higher-pitched sound. This is similar to how the thinner strings on a guitar make a higher-pitched sound—because they can vibrate faster and therefore produce higher-frequency sound waves.
When you made the gap in your paper squawker larger you should have noticed that the sound became lower. In this case you were increasing the space while blowing the same amount of air, and the resulting vibrations of the paper were slower. These slower vibrations create lower-frequency sound waves, which our ears perceive as lower-pitched sounds.

Carnival, or Fašiangy, symbolises time of merriment and feasts
CARNIVAL, called Fašiangy in Slovakia, is the time between Epiphany (January 6) and the movable Tuesday before the Ash Wednesday. This year, the end fell on February 9.
The word Fašiangy comes from the old Germanic word ‘vast-schanc’, meaning “Ausschank des Fastentrunks”, or pouring of the fasting drink. Pouring the fasting drink symbolized the beginning of the 40 days of fasting during Lent, the time preceding Easter. This fasting was very strictly observed in the past, and so the last days of Fašiangy – in some places called “ostatky” (the remaining, last days), were a time of exuberant entertainment. From the era of Great Morava (9th-10th century), it was also called “mjasopust”, meaning letting go of a lot of meat.

Indigo Mattress vs Nectar
The Sleeping Heavyweight Championship belt is on the line as Nectar goes up against the sleeping federations finest in a free for all duel.
Too much?
We do not think so. With so many choices out there, and with the value of the role sleep plays in our lives, choosing a mattress should not be a hasty decision. It needs to be carefully considered because it’s not just a financial investment that could set you back a fantastic price, but it’s betting on something that will better your sleeping life, and thus better your waking one.
Do you prefer a visual review? Check out this video by Kelly and Mar from the Nectar Sleep YouTube channel:
Nectar vs Puffy Indigo Mattress vs Nectar
Puffy steps into the ring bringing with it durable memory foam, cooling technology. Now our challenger steps in bringing in similar tools.
Although that is where they draw their strength, there are crucial differences.
For one, Nectar wins out in terms of value and affordability. You can feel that what you’re paying for not just goes into the thoughtfulness and construction of the mattress, but mixed together, it’s elevated into something special. Very similar to how a professional cook can take any ingredient from the kitchen and make something really good.
Nectar is the one for you if need the cooling sensation it provides if you have a tendency to get hot when you sleep if you would like medium firmness with a tiny sinkage and good motion suppression (especially useful if you’re discussing the bed) and, most especially if you are a back sleeper.
For side sleepers, Puffy might be the better option, however for stomach sleepers, this completely foam bed may be not a recommendable one because one may experience difficulty breathing. And Much like Nectar, it offers superb motion isolation and cooling, is somewhat softer than Nectar’s firm texture, and is created and certified in the United States.
In terms of overall comfort, between them both, they fill our distinct niches. As a result of its medium firmness, those that have bad backs or prefer something to sleep on rather than in, should go for the Nectar Mattress. If you want to sleep on your bed, literally, select Puffy and let yourself be wrapped in bedding.
As to who the clear winner is between the two, that choice is a matter of personal taste because they have the same technology but are quite different from each other. You only need to choose what works best for you.
Indigo Mattress vs Nectar
Nectar vs Purple
Either Nectar and Purple are well known in the mattress world for what they have to bring to the table. Or in this case, to the bedroom. Indigo Mattress vs Nectar
Nectar is known for its affordability, giving individuals the chance to experience a memory foam bed without breaking the bank, while Purple is known for its innovations as it strives to give the consumer a different experience from the competition with its various models.
At the end of the day, there is no right or wrong answer when it comes to your comfort, it is pretty much the same as choosing between a classic delicious apple pie or an apple pie that is a fancy fusion of unique flavors. It is all a matter of you.
If it’s a battle of cost, then Nectar is the clear winner, even against all versions that Purple has to offer, and that is not to say it’s low-quality stuff. Efficiency was most important for the Nectar team and it shows in their product as they want it to show when their customers experience their mattresses.
When it comes to sleep temperature, this is where Purple starts to shine more. Purple edges it thanks to the fact that all Purple Beds just allow more airflow, if you are a hot sleeper. If this is an important consideration for you, then proceed Purple.
The “feel” of Nectar and Purple are not similar so it is quite not possible to compare. Nectar has a dense, medium-firm memory foam resistance to it, while Purple mattresses on the other hand are made of Hyper-Elastic Polymer that has a gel-like feel.
This is where it will be up to the consumer to choose what their personal taste is that’s best suited for their sleep style.
To summarize, what you decide will be the better mattress is for you comes down to these factors. If you are on a budget and like the feel of memory foam, then go for Nectar. In the event you had to think about if you want the feel of memory foam, or if you just know you don’t and you have some extra to spare, it is worth looking into Purple and what they have to offer.
Nectar as Compared to Bear
If the last battle had two different sorts of mattresses fighting, this one is a straight-up memory foam vs memory foam commparison, as Nectar and Bear step in the ring. Though similar, there are distinct differences which will enable consumers to choose between the two to see what works best for their particular lifestyle.
Digging straight into matters, in terms of firmness, they’re actually quite similar. We will say however that Nectar is somewhat firmer that Bear.
As long as you’re indeed trying to find a memory foam mattress, both will adapt pretty much all sleeping styles without much of a negative. We will say both are great options for back and stomach sleepers. That is not to say it’s bad for side sleepers, it is just they’re particularly great for those two styles. In this regard, it is a tie between the two of them.
Pricing is where things get interesting. In the last few head-to-heads, Nectar always came up on top in this category. The two brands go for the same SRP though Bear tends to offer discounts to people regularly. It can vary from $100 to even a $150 off, which in itself already a big thing.
One special thing about Bear though is its Special Celliant Cover. Helpful for men and women who live an athletic lifestyle, Bear asserts that their FDA approved cover helps improve tissue oxygen levels and even enhances athletic performance. We know sleep goes a long way for busy people, but this is taking it to another level. To be honest, we haven’t tested it extensively to see if it functions, but either way, it’s there and it does not hurt to have it at all!
Both Nectar and Bear are very similar in terms of quality and feel that whichever you purchase will be a worth it purchase. But thanks to the added bonus of its own Special Celliant Cover, the ease at which you can find discounts and the total quality of the mattress, Bear, however, has the advantage in a lot of categories that may give it the small advantage, especially if you’re looking for slightly softer memory foam. If you want something firmer and you are not particularly active, Nectar is awaiting.
Nectar vs Casper
Which one comes out on top? Indigo Mattress vs Nectar
Talking about firmness, both score the same in that respect. Nectar‘s slow responding memory gel is truly great at relieving stress on your body, while Casper’s responsive top immediately reacts to pressure and springs back up instantly. We’ve found that stomach sleepers specifically might enjoy Casper’s offerings.
If we’re talking about spinal support, Casper’s innovative mattress is what you’re looking for As a result of its upgraded Zone Support, people who have spine issues or carry around heavyweight around the middle will surely appreciate the support in the center of the mattress.
Additionally, it is made for people who like sleeping on top of their bed, as opposed to sinking indoors, as it gives you a gentle cradling feeling. The features that most shines for majority of consumers are the moderate firmness and the responsive materials that Casper offers.
However, if someone is looking for pressure relief, Nectar’s memory foam mattress would be a superior choice. Additionally, it affords you a deeper hug (without being too soft), and combined with its cooling technology and responsive layers, you should sleep fresh and joyful.
And finally, Nectar truly is of exceptional value. With its high quality of construction, great build and feel and the way that it can cater to a lot of different sleep fashions, it’s hard to say no to Nectar. Because of this we’re giving the win to Nectar.
The Last Word on Nectar Indigo Mattress vs Nectar
So there you have it. Nectar went up against some of the best of the best in the market, and it came out of every scrape pretty impressively really.
So now that we have compared it to 4 of the best brands out there, what do you have to say? Are you leaning more towards Nectar, or away from it? Did you figure out which of the mattresses could work for your sleeping style? Don’t forget how good quality mattresses will make a difference, especially the older you get. Also, getting yourself a new mattress can greatly improve your sleep quality.
At the end of the day, more than anything, if you’re looking for a great, medium firmness mattress that is constructed beautifully, includes a valid forever warranty and not just affordable, but truly value for money, it’s hard to ignore Nectar and what it has to offer.

Oil and Gas
A Look Ahead: What’s New for Offshore Oil and Gas UPS Solutions
Downtime in the oil and gas industry is expensive. What’s more, the cost of a mishap on an offshore platform can run in the billions of dollars and have an impact for years. Integrating an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) with the right capabilities in the emergency power network on a platform ensures that the low voltage network and the devices that depend upon it continue to function. This reduces the risk of downtime and a potential safety lapse.
Unlike facilities on land, oil and gas offshore platforms often have only one way to get the power they need: they must generate it locally. More so today than in the past, this is typically done with a gas turbine, sized such that it can produce the required peak load of as much as 90 MW of electricity. The turbine’s output runs through a transformer, which renders the power suitable for the rest of the low voltage devices like circuit breakers, contactors and transformers. These and other components are found in substations and the rest of the distribution system.
However, that is only part of the picture, and it is in the rest of the system that there are solutions to some pressing problems. Downstream from the last line of high voltage transformers sits a low voltage, or 400V and below, distribution network. Most of the systems and devices that platform workers will interact with every day get their power from this network. That includes the automation and control equipment that oversees the extraction and other processes performed on the platform. It also includes the safety devices and the systems that make an oil platform habitable by a crew for weeks at a time.
So, what happens if something goes wrong in the upstream, main high voltage network?
Well, if no provisions are made for potential problems, then they can easily cascade down through the power network causing unplanned downtime and wreaking havoc with production. Processing stops, safety interlocks trigger, ventilation ceases, and the situation can rapidly become very dangerous for people and machines.
The traditional solution is for an emergency generator and an emergency switchboard. When power fails, the generator fires up, the switchboard becomes active and the situation onboard the offshore platform stabilizes and provides a window of opportunity to address the main system.
The challenge with this solution is that emergency generators require time to take over the load. So, there will be a delay, although it may be very brief. If the duration of the main power glitch is short enough, the emergency generator may not even be able to come on line. However, even very short excursions outside the bounds of voltage specifications can be problematic for servers in micro data centers.
New innovation facilitates power backup
To avoid such issues, part of the emergency system should include an uninterruptible power supply (UPS). While UPS solutions have been an offshore platform presence for years, a higher degree of intelligence within modern UPSs facilitates their integration into a more robust and connected power architecture. Fortunately, this is not an architecture that has to be built from scratch by oil and gas engineering and operations teams. These architectures have been pre-designed.
Schneider Electric’s EcoStruxure architecture, for example, offers an open, but tailored, stack of connected products, control level software, and cloud-based services for supporting applications and data analytics. This common platform accommodates information technology (IT) and operations technology (OT) hardware devices and software and is designed to facilitate Internet of Things (IoT)-oriented solution development, regardless of the brand of equipment being used.
Years in the making, the EcoStruxure architecture unlocks the potential of smart sensors and data points within the IT and power systems to vastly improve management practices. Data is translated into actionable intelligence which allows for better business decisions. The advanced connectivity now enables robust two-way communication, making devices such as UPSs, power distribution systems, generators and IT support systems easier to manage either locally or remotely. Reliability also improves because of increased access to diagnostic data. These capabilities lead to enhanced preventive and predictive maintenance, an important advancement that is now both possible and affordable.
An integrated emergency power system designed with a modern UPS ensures that the system can instantly shoulder the load whether the failure of the mains is over in an instant or lasts much longer. The UPS can step in immediately for brief failures or out-of-spec voltage. The UPS can also bridge the gap between the time that a problem arises and the time the emergency generator is fully up and running.
In this current low-price environment, it is more imperative than ever to leverage technology to optimize operations.

The Democrats’ social spending bill like costs around $4.6T, not $1.75T
President Biden and the Democrats know exactly what they are doing. They’ve shortened the time periods of their programs to make them cost less, knowing full well at least some of them are likely to be extended.
According to the Wall Street Journal:
The Congressional Budget Office on Thursday released its “official” cost estimates for the House tax and entitlement bill, but don’t believe it. The CBO gnomes aren’t lying about a 10-year deficit estimate of $367 billion. They’re obliged to score the bill under rules that Democrats have rigged with multiple tricks that disguise the real cost by trillions of dollars.
Democrats phase out the biggest programs in the bill while paying for them with 10 years of tax increases. They phase-in other programs and off-load costs to the states. The Penn Wharton Budget Model estimates the House bill would cost nearly $4.6 trillion over 10 years if temporary provisions are made permanent, as most will be.
The Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget (CRFB) pegs the cost at $4.9 trillion if temporary tax credits and programs are made permanent through 2031. This would add $1.5 trillion to deficits over the next five years without additional tax offsets. Let’s take a tour of this budget deception.
Enhanced child allowances ($3,600 for children under age 6 and $3,000 up to age 17). This is the bill’s most expensive provision at about $130 billion a year, which is why Democrats limit it to one year. Does anyone doubt they’ll extend it in the future?

Compare with Current View Page History
« Previous Version 16 Next »
It is easy to access Nearmap imagery through Google Earth® or Google Earth Pro®.
Please note that at this time, only the most recent image capture is available for a given location.
1. From the Add menu, select Network Link.
2. In the Network Link window, at the Name field, enter Nearmap. At the Link field, enter
3. When prompted, enter your Nearmap User Name and Password, and click Sign In.
You should now see Nearmap appear as a layer. The imagery shown for a given location is the most recent Nearmap image available for that location; previous captures cannot currently be accessed in Google Earth. Since low zoom levels may include imagery from many dates, zoom in close to a location of interest to be sure that you're seeing the appropriate date for its capture.
Google Earth not accepting login credentials
This may be a cookies issue. To delete Google Earth's cookies, follow these steps:
1. In Google Earth, go to the Options menu.
2. Switch to the General tab.
3. Uncheck the Save cookies to disk box and click OK. If you do not do this, you may lose the ability to access Nearmap via Google Earth as soon as you next login to the MapBrowser. If that happens, you will need to manually delete Google Earth's "cookies" file and restart Google Earth. On Windows 7, this is usually found at:
Google Earth not accepting Nearmap login
This section should help if you try to login using correct Nearmap credentials in Google Earth, but the login window keeps appearing whatever you type, even if you click Cancel.
This can happen if Step 3 of our Google Earth integration instructions was missed. If Google Earth saves your validated credentials to disk, it will try to use the same saved Nearmap authentication cookie every time you try to log in. That may be fine if you haven't logged in elsewhere. However, if you have used the MapBrowser more recently, the original cookie becomes invalid but Google Earth tries to use it anyway.
The solution for now is to keep Google Earth from storing that cookie:
On Windows 7
1. Find Google Earth's cookies file on your hard drive. It is typically at "C:\Users\YOUR_USERNAME\AppData\LocalLow\Google\GoogleEarth\cookies" where YOUR_USERNAME is your Windows username.
2. Delete this file.
3. Follow all steps of the Google Earth integration instructions.
Delete Google Earth cache
If you need to clear the Google Earth cache, follow these steps:
1. In Google Earth select File > Server Sign Out.
2. Select Tools > Options and on the Cache tab

Seeking comments from folks using NSM to create Templates with Objects
LarryLarry All-Knowing Sage ✭✭✭✭
I'd like to know if it is just me (being even more picky than usual) or if something isn't right with the dialog windows.
Here's a screen shot of the Address Object settings window:
After typing in a name, the natural tendency is to tab to the next field, and I'd like to assign it to the WAN.
However, the field acts as a data entry field instead of a drop-down field, because it places the "w" after the "N" instead of at the beginning.
I've tested multiple times. Here's how you can get the list to drop-down:
• Backspace repeatedly to clear the value
• Use the down arrow
• Double click in the field
And when the value appears in the list, how would you normally select it? Tab doesn't work, it goes to the next field. The down arrow doesn't move to the field, nothing happens. So, I'll type it in or select it. No, that doesn't work in either upper or lower case, it reverts back to LAN. The ONLY way to set this value is to click the entry on the list.
Tab to the next field and you'd expect the same behavior - only that doesn't happen. You can't type anything in this field. If you try, nothing happens. So you have to click the down-arrow to get the list. But wait, what about the double click? Yes, that works but doesn't clear the field. The ONLY way to set this value is to click the entry on the list.
Look, I realize Windows has inculcated in us years of habit for dialog windows, and that this is a pop-up window in a web browser. But why isn't there any consistency to the actions of drop-down fields? Why does it seem they aren't using the same code to process actions? And why, oh why, is this promulgated in almost all the Objects windows?
Is anyone else having a hard time using this functionality? Has anyone else opened a ticket about it?
(asking for a friend)

• SanthoshSanthosh SonicWall Employee
I tested this on My Cloud NSM ,here are the results.
When I type in a name it takes it , I choose the drop down list and choose WAN for Zone Assignment and Type as Host or any from drop down and type the ip and it takes it.
When I click on Zone Assignment it goes blank and I can choose the WAN, LAN, VPN etc.
Selecting Zone Assignment using TAB on keyboard would give a blank screen as shown above.
Once we remove WAN or LAN from LAN assignment using backspace we get the options to select the available Zones.
Its working as expected.
• LarryLarry All-Knowing Sage ✭✭✭✭
What you are describing is how it works.
What I am saying is that it is not how "normal" windows work - even in browsers.
"Once we remove WAN or LAN from LAN assignment using backspace" is NOT "expected" behavior, it is abnormal processing. Having a cursor appear after the value in a drop-down list is not normal processing.
There's no rational justification for building a monstrosity like this and then saying it is fine. What's worse, I'm seeing the same coding evidenced in the Gen 7 UI.
10 years of using SonicWall - from Gen 5 through now - and Address Object windows worked like Windows windows. Only now you've decided to throw out convention because, what - no thought twice?

Why the World Needs Less Charity and More Collaboration
A well meaning uncle gives his only niece, a sixteen-year-old girl he sees maybe once every four years, a Christmas gift. The girl is a runner. Her tennis shoes have worn down so bad, she’s getting shin splints. She needs a new pair and it’s her lucky day because her gift is in the shape of a shoebox. Elated, she opens the box. Inside is a sparkly pair of high heels. The girl loathes sparkles and never wears heels. Her face falls, but her uncle doesn’t see it. She sees him smiling at her, proud and expectant, happy to have given her something so nice.
“Foreign aid is like buying a Christmas present for someone you have never met: someone who will never give you feedback on whether they liked it,” Professor Waya Quiviger said, summing up the principal agent problem of foreign aid presented by William Easterly.
How does someone on one side of the world know what is right or needed for someone on the other side of the world? And even if they do know what is right, how can they ensure that their gift reaches the right people and systems, not just the already-powerful and potentially-corrupt?
The genesis story of Orant is a fairly common one. A group of men in the US gathered together with the shared mission to fight poverty on a global level. They traveled to Mozambique, Cambodia, Haiti, and Malawi to see where their impact could be the greatest. Malawi lacked a history of political strife and housed extreme poverty. Here, the US team chose to start their charity.
As Orant evolved, so did its concept of charity. Orant Charities US (OCUS) is a private operating foundation that offers consulting and fundraising services to Orant Charities Africa (OCA), a local Malawian NGO run by an entirely Malawian staff. With this model, feedback between donor country and beneficiary country is encouraged, discussed, and used to develop better, stronger, more efficient programs.
Orant’s fundraising is run almost entirely from the US where its primary donor base is located. Technology makes cross-country communication feasible and regular. Rather than US donors blindly sending money to governments or churches in Malawi with leaders who may or may not be using the money to serve their communities, OCUS is informed on and involved in all on-the-ground operations. The OCUS team meets weekly over Skype with the direct service team in Malawi to discuss goals, developments, and program operations. This way, OCUS can track its investments and measure impact.
OCA, the Malawi NGO team, on the other hand, are the experts and leaders of Orant’s mission. All program managers in Malawi are college-educated and trained in their specialties: water management, education, healthcare, and agriculture. More importantly, Malawi is their home. The community they serve is their community and the culture of their clients is their culture. They speak Chichewa and English, the language of their people and the language of their primary donors. Because of this, they know better than anyone the needs of their community, and the solutions to address those needs.
The women of the FEM for Women program with the co-founder of the program, Gloria Banda.
The collaboration between OCA and OCUS has been integral in making Orant’s programs what they are: local, holistic, data-driven, and impactful. For example, in 2017, OCA’s accountant saw the opportunity for business growth among women in Malawi. She worked with the former director of OCUS to develop the FEM for Women Program. After three successful years of operations with 100% of loans paid back in full, OCA decided it was time to restructure the program and prepare it for expansion. Gabriel Kapanda, the Country Director of OCA, requested that OCUS analyze the program’s operations and develop ideas for improved functionality and growth. Soon, the US and Malawi teams will meet to determine an implementation plan.
OCUS isn’t an estranged uncle gifting OCA sparkly high heels. Orant as a whole is not a foreign aid mission, but an international collaborative effort to battle poverty and inequity. Ours is a framework rooted in relationships. When visiting Malawi, the Africa team greets the US team, “Welcome back to your second home.” OCUS and OCA are two organizations with one shared mission: to make a lasting and sustainable impact in Malawi through programs that support local women and communities.

I don't even know why I'm writing this... Anyway, obviously I'm a complete stranger on here (because I've only been reading for the last couple of years and not posting things on lj), and I felt like this was a cool place to post stuff *cough cough* K-pop fanfictions, mostly SHINee *cough cough*. Yes, I do write stuff other than horrible fanfics of onho... but those are mostly useless drabbles from prompts that mean absolutely nothing that no-one probably wants to read but who cares. Maybe there's someone out there who likes to read lifeless stream-of-conscious ramblings.
Anyhow, just... hi everyone?
Pocky Game (Minho/Onew)
Okay.... Hi everyone, I have no idea if anyone still really reads or writes SHINee fanfics, but I know I do (sorry for all the silent stalking of great fanfic authors around lj recently) and I have written both short/long stories and fanfictions before, but never posted to LiveJournal. I've been reading stuff on here for a while, though.... And this is a fun website for making blogs. *grins*
And yes, I know I'm a terrible writer, but I love writing and you don't have to read it. It's just there for the rare occasion that someone may want read my terrible stories, fanfictions or whatever, for whatever reason I cannot fathom.
And I swear that this just tapered off... I'm sorry..... If it disappoints you please tell me lol
Obviously un-beta ed, since no one here knows me :)

y= (cos^3 x) (cos 3x) I got -3 sin(3x) cos^3x - 3 sin(x) cos (3x) cos^2 (x) using the product rule Is this right? Thanks.
I have taken that into consideration; thank you!
I got 12 sin (3x-1)^2 cos (3x-1)^2 * (3x-1) as my final answer. Is this in the correct simplified form ?
I'm not sure if this is correct. Can someone clarify thanks.
what is derivative of sin^2 (3x-1)^2 ? dy/dx (sin^2 (x))= 2 sin x cos x dy/dx (3x-1)^2= 6(3x-1) chain rule? = 2 sin ((3x-1)^2) cos ((3x-1)^2) * 6(3x-1) Please help. Thank you

Trigger Heroes: Ultimate Tips and Cheats Guide
Trigger Heroes is a new top-down roguelike shooting game for the iOS and Android platforms. Your goal is to make it from level to level, fighting against tougher and tougher enemies, and collecting both purple coins and gold coins as you go. You can unlock new characters, find all kinds of different weapons, and more. Read on for some tips and tricks for Trigger Heroes!
All you have to do is approach an enemy, and you’ll shoot them. The main key to getting as far as you can in this game is to avoid getting hit, which for the most part, is easy to do; just keep your distance so that you can stay away from the enemy’s shots, and make sure to swipe when a shot gets too close to you, so that you can slide to the side and get away quickly.
In the levels themselves, you’ll earn purple coins, which can be used in shops within the levels themselves. After your run is done, you’ll earn gold coins, which can then be used to upgrade your current character or to unlock new characters. New characters have various bonuses in addition to higher stats; for example, Pine sometimes avoids bullets, and Peck finds better weapons more quickly.
You can earn free gold coins in one of two ways. One is to watch the ad videos in the offer at the top of the main menu; you can watch up to five before you run out and have to wait for the cool-down to finish. You can also claim free timed prizes, which give you gold coins. You can then double the earnings by watching an ad video if you have an internet connection.
There are all different kinds of weapons to be picked up in levels. The blaster is the one that you start with; it fires one shot at a time. The shotgun fires multiple shots in a spray pattern but has a short range and fires slowly. The semi-automatic fires a burst round and fires as quickly as the blaster, but each shot does less damage. The shotgun does the most damage at a time but you have to hit one enemy with all of the bullets at once.
The farther you go, the more coins you earn. Once your run is done, if you have an internet connection, you can watch an ad video in order to restart from where you left off. Make sure to use your purple coins in the store to refresh so that you can get all of your health back if you’re low; otherwise, you can purchase abilities and new guns.

HomeBeautyOrganic Beauty Trends of 2022
Organic Beauty Trends of 2022
Wow! This last year was as unpredictable as 2020. We have a feeling that 2022 is going to be the year of green. After sitting at home for a year, people have become more informed about the toxicity of the items they consume. The 2022 beauty trend is leaning towards the essence of inclusion, diversification, and sustainability in the beauty industry. Being stuck with our thoughts caused a shift in consumer habits and a demand for corporate transparency, and because the ethical beauty trend already existed, it wasn’t hard for the organic beauty sect to champion the trend. The beautiful part of it is that these earth-friendly trends have reached beyond the organic beauty world, extending to the entire beauty industry, making sustainable and organic beauty the biggest trend of 2022.
Organic beauty is set to dominate the beauty industry this year and hopefully beyond.
1. Sustainable Product Sourcing
A major determining factor in the end result of a product relies on the entire sourcing process that goes into it. This year studies have shown that more people are becoming aware of the impact a brand’s production can have on the environment and on human health. Brands with a social voice regarding the products they sell have shown more manufacturers reorganizing their sourcing channels to include local organic farmers.
Sustainable product sourcing can be identified on the labels. Remember to quickly google or ask Siri about the labels present on your beauty products. UBQ has a great article explaining the identification of these labels.
Also, natural ingredients are the fast and becoming trend of the cosmetics industry, so it’s likely that more and more companies are taking a step into the environmentally friendly world. Terms like “green” and “sustainable” are beginning to define the beauty industry.
2. Cruelty-Free Beauty Products
The term “Cruelty-free” has been buzzing in the beauty industry for a couple of years now, but with the awareness of 2021, it has become a demand of beauty aficionados across the globe. Throughout history, the beauty industry has been linked to animal testing and animal cruelty, making it crucial for brands to label their products cruelty-free.
Companies are accomplishing this by integrating computer-modeling techniques replacing the need for both animal and human testing. Beauty companies like Kat Von D, Glossier, The Body Shop, and Urban Decay have been leading this trend for a while now and as the year continues, it is forecasted to continue its expansion.
This trend is becoming, due to consumers championing the cause for vegan products and brands, attracting non-vegan users to inculcate the animal respect culture. Thank goodness we are waking up to the dark side of the beauty industry and taking control of what is in our products. Data shows that at least 59% of Millennials and Gen Z consumers prefer environmentally and cruelty-friendly products to opposing products.
The Vegan Beauty Trend is without any doubt becoming a standard for beauty products in 2022, and hopefully in all the years following.
3. Dual Purpose Skincare Products
One goal of the organic beauty world is to use minimal products that maximize the ones in use. This would mean that a number of products will be streamlined, with some having dual purposes. In fact, recent skincare products are taking on the hybrid outlook and serving more than one purpose.
Consumers are making efforts to self-indulge themselves while not overspending. As a result, companies are breaking out dual-purpose beauty products and services. This is yet another factor playing into the sustainability side of the beauty market – fewer containers signify less impact on the environment.
Products reading “moisturizing toner”, “bi-serum” or “exfoliating facial mask” will now become the norm as the year goes on. For instance, the Kérastase’s Sérum Thérapiste is a hair care product that’s not only a serum that repairs hair tresses but also protects the hair against the use of heat. One of our favorite dual-purpose products is from Adonia Organics, moisturizer (day and night) while also having the dual-purpose of being a miracle wrinkle cream and COMPLETELY organic!
4. Third-party Seals and Certifications
In theory, third-party product verification has existed for years in the beauty industry. Cosmetics and personal care products have always been plastered with third-party seals, whether or not they’re verified. However, customers today are becoming more and more aware of the need for third-party product verification and are knowledgeable enough to identify real verifications and not.
Beauty products in the U.S are particularly overlooked when it comes to FDA regulation, but they may not be able to get away with it anymore because ECOCERT and the Environmental Working Group are now easily identifiable.
Brands are now going over and beyond to ensure that their products retain the “organic” and “eco-friendly” state that they claim to have. They engage third-party programs to verify their products to ensure that their products are safe for both the environment and human health.
5. Beauty Tools of the Future
For a number of reasons, at-home self-care tools have been on a continuous rise. First, consumers are becoming more thoughtful in the way they deal with beauty products (as we’ve explained so far). They are getting more involved in the process and striving to be resourceful in the use of beauty products. Therefore, there’ll be a call for more and improved self-care tools to increase the do-it-yourself attitude. Some women have been creating their own DIY organic makeup solutions. Recipes like DIY Makeup Remover with Coconut Oil or DIY Makeup Setting Spray Without Glycerin are great examples of what came out of 2021.
With the world in a post-pandemic season, we are still caught in the web of being extra careful with close contact and the use of shared products. So instead of having beauticians attend to us directly – whether it’s our skin, hair, or makeup, we’re indoors isolated with our alternative beauty tools which are showing great improvements in the world of high-tech.
The near future holds the possibility (and reality) of devices that can detect skin problems that we’re suffering from and possibly a suggestion to solve the problem. Devices like jade rollers, micro-needling devices, laser therapy tools, and pro-level facial home-care devices are the more futuristic approach to skincare. This is not only a trend of 2022 but also the beginning of a new world of beauty.
6. Recycling Beauty Products
Recycling has always been a myth in the cosmetic and beauty industry in the preceding years. However, 2022 is showing a major shift in the eco-friendly world. As we already established, consumers are becoming more aware of what should be considered organic and natural beauty products, paying more attention to every aspect of what goes into their beauty products, even down to the bottles and where they end up.
Consumers are beginning to realize that ‘organic’ and ‘clean’ are more than just the sourcing of the products and what they contain but extending their view to the entirety of its packaging. 87% of beauty products packaging ends up in landfills or in one of the many plastic islands forming in our oceans. This trend has caused refillable masks and wipes like those from Credo to Exa’s recyclable glass and its 100% post-consumer waste box, the trend is taking over the industry and there’ll be more to see in the near future.
Although the recycling industry still has a long way to go, because of how slow it is for consumers to integrate it into their general lives, it’s steadily putting its mark on the organic beauty industry.
7. By-Products of Beauty
Incorporating organic and natural beauty into a routine involves covering every possible product and making sure that nothing that can benefit the body goes to waste. So, by-products beauty is simply using ingredients on our bodies that would otherwise go to waste. For instance, there are certain foods and drinks ingredients that can be beneficial to the body as natural beauty products, rather than being thrown away.
Before now, DIYers have inculcated this culture by using homemade products as homemade remedies, and these have lasted for years. However, rather than leave it to consumers to set up themselves, the industry as a whole is beginning to realize how this niche can be a huge one for them. It also helps consumers reduce the side effects of fusing the products themselves. The bigger picture is pushing the zero-waste agenda and improving circular beauty to ensure that post-consumer waste is prevented as much as possible.
As the year goes by, we will be seeing more products like the UpCircle face scrub made out of coffee grounds and other fruit powders.
8. Sustainable Product Packaging
Again, organic products extend to not only the product inside the bottle but the entirety of the product and the packaging it comes in. One reason why sustainable product packaging is thriving is that it’s a good route to protecting the main content of the product. Also, it pushes the zero-waste product agenda and removes that problem out of the way for manufacturers.
DIYers are also a great inspiration to limit waste through packaging for manufacturers. For instance, bath bombs can be wrapped in recycled paper and biodegradable wrappers instead of going through the process of manufacturing an entire wrapper for it. Also, some products will be modified to eliminate the need for packaging
So, it’s possible to see these products like shampoo bars and scrubs in their naked format. Some other products come in refillable formats, so you can refill the content as soon as they’re done – such as perfume, shampoo, and body scrubs.
These make it more attractive to buyers who are environmentally conscious and guns for continuous improvement of the product.
9. Waterless Product Formulas
Again, this is a trend that isn’t ‘there’ yet but has a huge potential of leading the organic beauty world as we move on. Having all beauty product formulations completely rid of water is almost as tough as it is to get rid of plastic packaging, but the more we have brands tilting towards it, the more mainstream it becomes.
Not only does it make for better quality products, but it also helps the world in conserving a considerable amount of water, because a good level is being used in skincare and cosmetic production. A good example of this will be dry shampoo. Oil cleansers and powders also completely eliminate water from the formula.
Waterless formulas also go beyond the products and extend to the skincare routine. Our routines are becoming streamlined to steps that conserve water. You can imagine a morning skincare routine where there’s limited rinse and application of products all in the name of conserving water and keeping our beauty process environmentally friendly.
10. Dewy ‘no-makeup’ Look
Dewy no-makeup looks have been the rave for a while, even outside the organic beauty world. As the year progresses, it doesn’t seem like it’s taken the backseat for anyone anytime soon. The entire idea behind the dewy makeup look is to have the minimum amount of makeup on your face while maintaining a bare-faced look. With this style, you can go about your day looking like you don’t have makeup on when you actually have some on.
Instead of layering your face with foundation, powders, and whatnots, you can skip the entire process and still look great. The dewy look isn’t only about the makeup, but more about the agenda of enhancing our natural looks, than the use of ‘enhancing’ products. From skinmalism and natural-looking brows to dewy looks, the trend is to depict that ‘less is more’. It’s not surprising that people now go around with their bare faces, having nothing more than a lippie or eyeliner on them.
2022 is introducing a huge surge in the beauty industry and it’s hinged on ethical and organic measures. As organic and natural trends are leading the forefront of the skincare and beauty industry, consumers who follow the aforementioned trends will not have a problem fitting into the new beauty space.
Which of these organic beauty trends of 2021 have you tried and which ones do you intend to try out as the year goes on?

Everyone knows that antsy feeling you get when you’re on the highway, your gas light comes on and there’s not a station in sight.
Do you know how much gas you have left? Now there's an easy way to find out!
I always test my fuel light the minute I get my car. How? I just drive it until I run out of gas, kindof like Kramer in Seinfeld.
For instance I know my Malibu Maxx can go about 60 miles before it will run out of gas, so that gives me two days of driving around town before I have to worry about it.
But what if you aren't quite as adventurous as Kramer, and you want to know before you actually are left stranded by the side of the road?
The geniuses at yourmechanic.com have released a graphic that tells you just that based on the make and model of your car.

Cape Town - Three years of correctional supervision and house arrest.
That’s the sentence Athlone Magistrate Heather Paulse imposed on Johan Crous, 33 – the man held responsible for the death of Lauren Devine, 24, on the M3 highway in August 2008. And, if he doesn’t comply with his sentence, he will be jailed for three years, the court warned.
Devine died when Crous’s car crashed into the guardrail separating the incoming and outgoing lanes of the highway.
A rock, or similar object, was dislodged during the crash and smashed through the windscreen of Devine’s car, striking her in the face. She sustained a 9cm head laceration and inhaled blood, before dying at the scene minutes later.
Crous and his wife Samantha had returned from watching a rugby match at Peddlers on the Bend in Constantia, where they each had two beers.
Crous was arrested on September 23, 2008 and charged with culpable homicide and driving under the influence of alcohol. In 2010 the charge of driving under the influence of alcohol was withdrawn and in July last year Crous was convicted of culpable homicide.
In passing sentence yesterday, Magistrate Paulse said no sentence would heal the Devine family’s wounds or the devastation to their lives.
She said it was clear from media reports and the factual position on Western Cape roads that, as a result of negligent acts, devastation occurred daily, if not hourly.
The court had to take that into account, she added.
Paulse also said the public expected that offenders be punished in such a manner that the sentence serve as a deterrent to others and so that effect was given to their demand for retribution.
Turning to Crous’s personal circumstances, she said he was a first offender who was gainfully employed and who had a young family and a mother who had supported him throughout the trial.
Referring to the defence’s submission that the court regard Crous as a fallen angel, Paulse said that, after looking at the evidence before her and his demeanour, she could not find anything to support such a submission.
“Instead, what I find is evidence of a remorseless man, who does not accept responsibility for his actions,” she said.
She also dismissed the defence’s argument that Crous was on the road to reform.
“How can anyone be on the road to reform if he does not accept responsibility?”
She sentenced him to 36 months of correctional supervision, which includes 24-hour house arrest and 16 hours a month of community service.
He is also not allowed to consume any alcohol or narcotics for the duration of his sentence.
The magistrate also told him that being under house arrest meant that he was not allowed outside his garden.
”This sentence may not be ameliorated,” she told him.
Crous must report on Monday to the commission of correctional services in Wynberg to start serving his sentence.
Crous’s attorney, Keith Gess, applied for leave to appeal against the conviction, but Paulse turned down the application. Gess later told Weekend Argus he had been instructed to petition the judge president of the Western Cape High Court for leave to appeal.

It's not quite too late... you can (just barely) manage to finish your shopping if you try really, really hard. And you have to be patient. And willing to walk a really long way from your car to the store. Or pay exorbitant shipping. But if you're still struggling, maybe you'll get some ideas from this post (or that other gift guide we put together). Of course, if you're already done, you may see something you wish you'd bought. There's always next year!
First up we've got what is probably one of the best ornament sets I've seen in quite some time. Each of these Star Wars characters stands around 2-3 inches in height, and they are made of PVC. The set of eight includes Chewbacca, Darth Vader, C-3PO, R2-D2, Yoda, Wicket, Boba Fett, and a Stormtrooper, and you can own them for just $49.95 US.

If Star Wars isn't your thing (although I cannot quite wrap my head around that), maybe Donkey Kong will be more your style. Decorate your tree in 8-bit wonderfulness for $60.00 US. The set is made of Perler beads, and includes a Donkey Kong tree topper, Mario and Pauline, three bridges, two ladders, two falling barrels and two rolling barrels...I really want to say, "and a partridge in a pear tree", but that's not included.

Perhaps a snow globe isn't for you. How do you feel about gingerbread houses? This one was created by the Sugar Plum Cake Shop, and features Walter and Jesse's cookie alter-egos along with their mobile lab and a bag of crystal. I kind of wish I wasn't already done with my holiday baking, or I'd have to seriously consider making one of these myself.

Let me just start by saying when I saw this, I laughed until I had tears streaming down my face and I had hiccups so bad I wanted to die. And then I laughed some more. Because this is an absolutely brilliant marriage of pun, wit, and creativity. If you don't get it, I'm sorry. But here...Wreath of Khan. You're welcome. Annie Shapiro is my new hero, and I mean that sincerely.

More gingerbread! Christmas is definitely a time for gingerbread. This one is particularly special, however, because it's not only a Tardis with a Doctor figure, if you turn it a bit you also see it's got Sherlock's address and he's there as well! This was created by someone calling themselves Wholock (get it?), and it implies that something more than just the game may be afoot.

Continuing with the gingerbread theme...it appears everything actually is bigger in Texas! This is claimed to be the world's largest gingerbread house, and I believe it. Of course, the structural part isn't all gingerbread or it would collapse, and I think that's cheating, but so be it. The Guinness Book of World Records says it counts, and who am I to argue? The house measures 39,201.8 cubic feet (1,110.1 cubic meters), and is on display at the Traditions Golf Club in the city of Bryan, TX.

Not to be outdone, New York chef Jon Lovitch decided to build the world's largest gingerbread village, although it's considerably smaller than the house in Texas. This one, however, is made purely of confectionery treats and baked goods, so in my mind it's better. Guinness again agrees, and this one currently holds the record. It took 2,240 pounds of icing, 400 pounds of candy, 500 pounds of gingerbread dough and 125 hours to make, and also features trees, trains and an underground subway in addition to the homes. You can see it at the New York Hall of Science.

I include this picture purely because I love it. I have no information about it. I don't have a clue who decorated Professor Snape, and the only reason I care is because I would love to give them credit for it. This is too funny, and I love that in lieu of a tree they've chosen to decorate a cardboard cutout. Especially since it's Snape, who obviously isn't thrilled with the idea.

I've seen some pretty creative things made out of those old computer parts we all have in a box in the closet, but this LED motherboard Christmas tree is actually kind of pretty. This cute little tree will sit on your desk, or it can be hung as a decoration. It has 16 red flashing LEDs, but also comes with extra green and yellow LEDs so you can customize it to your taste. It's powered by a 9v battery (not included), or apparently can run off the 12v power outlet in your car (although it's not clear if there's an adapter for that). You can tell how tiny it is, though, so it probably wouldn't be too bad on your dashboard. Pricing ranges from about $5.00 to $13.00 US.

Everybody has someone on their list who is not a fan of Christmas, right? I know I do. I usually trick him into taking some baked goods, but he really doesn't like presents. I bought him one of these this year...it'll be funny for me even if he isn't amused. This is the Bah, Humbug candy cane, and it has no stripes and no flavour. It is edible candy, but it's a generic candy taste...not even a hint of peppermint. Get one for the Scrooge in your life for just $5.99 US.

Most of you are thinking, "There's no way I have time to order any of these things!" You're probably right, but then whose fault is that? But you can still pull decorations out of your figurative hat, no worries. LEGOManiac Chris McVeigh has kits of bricks and detailed instructions on how to make several different ornaments out of LEGO. If you've got your own bricks, you don't even have to buy any, you can just check out his downloadable build-it-yourself guides.

RTD Cocktails: Not So Easy to Get Approved!
Written by Robert C. Lehrman, a lawyer at Lehrman Beverage Law, PLLC
Canned cocktails are one of the biggest trends at TTB in recent years. Even though the explosion of hard seltzers probably gets more attention, TTB approved more than 370 ready-to-drink (RTD) spirits labels for margaritas in just the past five years. This is to say nothing about the many other well-recognized RTD cocktail types, such as bloody marys, martinis and so forth.
The purpose of this article is to give you a heads up that it can be surprisingly painful to get such products approved. Every time we say we’ve handled scores of grasshoppers, for example, in the past, we are in for new and unpleasant surprises, to the extent we start to think it’s routine. I will run through some of the most common reasons why.
“Recognized” Cocktails
First off, TTB keeps a quaint old list of “recognized cocktails” here. This list does not do an especially good job of recognizing that cocktails come and go like fashion, and there are many modifications upon even the most enduring themes.
The current list covers only a couple dozen cocktails and these are the ones that were popular when your father was young: cocktails like the grasshopper, apricot sour, mai tai, pink squirrel, and others.
If, perchance, your intended cocktail is on the list, TTB will be rather fierce about requiring you to include a few more or less random ingredients. For example, if you mention Margarita, the BAM guidelines require you to include at least the following ingredients: Tequila, triple sec, and citrus.
It’s no big deal until – maybe 14 weeks into a 10-week timeline, you realize there is no triple sec in your product. This could cause pain not limited to, going all the way back to square one to find a triple sec, redo the formula and wait for it, and resubmit the label application (and then wait some more). TTB makes various exceptions from time to time, so this only makes the adventure more treacherous. Once your Margarita is all set, if you are making a wallbanger, don’t forget the Galliano or similar.
“Made With…”
Second, if you get so far as to include all the right ingredients, TTB will probably require you to say MADE WITH on the front label, and then list the main sources of alcohol. So, on our Margarita example, you would say MADE WITH TEQUILA & TRIPLE SEC.
This manner of labeling is similar to but not the same as that required for distilled spirits specialties (that is, miscellaneous spirits products that don’t fit under any common type such as vodka, nor do they fit under any of the listed cocktail types). For specialties, in contrast to cocktails, TTB would want you to list all the main ingredients (alcohols, colors and flavors) on the front label, and avoid saying MADE WITH.
canned cocktails
Formula Approvals
Third, canned cocktails can be tricky because, unlike vodka and whiskey for example, they almost always involve a formula approval, and have at least one flavor. The flavor will need one TTB approval with the corresponding forms and wait. The end product will need yet another TTB approval – with corresponding forms and the wait. A lot can go wrong at each stage.
Finally, the biggest reason canned cocktails can get jammed up is because a lot of the RTD companies seem to want to tout a few of the key ingredients. This is well and good so long as the ingredients are really in there and properly described (that is, lime is not the same as lime flavor). The problem arises when you attempt to highlight the lime – without touting the other ingredients. In general, TTB does not want you to cherry pick and call out some important ingredients without calling out all. It can also be hard to understand what sorts of ingredients always need to be called out on labels (FD&C Yellow 5) and which almost never need to be called out (water, citric acid, sugar).
If your spirits cocktail is in a can, you might have a few extra issues like what container sizes are allowed, state redemption labeling, and what to say instead of “bottled by.” All in all, there are lots of opportunities for a small disagreement to lead to massive delays.

Russia’s Bizarre, Barely Coherent Defence It Didn’t Bomb Hospitals in Syria
February 17, 2016

The Russian Defence Ministry then moves onto slightly more bizarre accusations:

So guys, you can all see from the above that Randy has successfully diverted our attention away from the original post. Who gives a flyin F whether Italy lost the war, who cares that China can mold millions of goose-stepping martinets, who cares that nothing has proven the assertions by the Russians. The major point in this discssion now seems to be “You remind me of several of the commentors from RT. You drag out an invalid point until even you can no longer defend it and then you resort to insults.”, a successful diversion by all accounts. Yet, the assertion here still seems to be valid and Russia continues to bomb hospitals with impunity.
• Andrea
Doing this he also shows the insignificance of his reasonings, his faulty logic, his double standards. Show us being affected by schizophrenia and amnesia attacks…
Therefore denying himself even the slightest credibility regarding his future comments…but probably it’s just what he’s paid for…or a sociopathic who feels better doing this…who knows…
But in the end he went away … he’s probably trolling with a different nick on a different website…as trolling here was probably too difficult…
He’ll come back with the next BC publication, and he’ll stay here for a couple of days, just to try trolling while the article has more visibility…then he’ll fade away again…
• stranger
What do you have agains Randy? He trolls in a nice, intelligent and polite way. Because this site gives so much fancy opportunities to troll. 🙂
• Sam
Randy is neither nice or intelligent, he just post what he is paid to post, but he’s not a very good troll.
His manager should fire him for making trolls be so obvious that Putin will lose the info war.
Did all the good trolls in St. Petersburg quit, because they aren’t bring their A game (best) to this website.
Hint to Putin, the more pathetic your trolls, the less effective the message, and cumulatively, you lose any trust.
• Andrea
he just shouts what passes in his mind, never gave some external references supporting his ideas…
If that’s being intellingent and smart…
About the politeness…you can see by yourself his xenophobia…
• Andrea
The original post is still above…but honestly there is so little to comment on such ridiculous claims…it would have been boring…and indefensible.
We should ask ourselves how can russian citizens be proud of their MoD…even swiss one would show more professionalism 🙂
2. stranger
Do you think Russia deliberately bombed a hospital? In case it was Russia. The article contains zero evidences who it was. The article is about nothing.
In the meantime Russia and US agreed on the cease fire starting from 27th. At the same time Russia proposed UN to take a declaration against any invasion to internal affairs of Syria, which was vetoed by US, GB, France and also refused by New Zealand, Spain and of course Ukraine. Trolling? Anyway Russia is the only country in Syria who is there in accordance to the international law.
• Mad Dog
yeah, probably it was intentional. They have done it before and they will do it again. Why? because they have the same attitude as Randy has expressed. They are all terrorist medical facilities. The article is about Russia evading any kind of responsibility with a set of invalid statements. As such, it is about something.
As for Randy, he does not always troll in a nice intelligent and especially polite way. Maybe you missed that Stranger. IMHO, you are far more polite.
• Sam
Yeah, some of us believe Putin deliberately bombed the hospitals as part of a strategic war plan to help Assad.
Is Russia in Ukraine under international law? No Russia violated several treaties that they signed.
Nobody can get evidence when Russia double taps and kills all the rescuers
• stranger
The fact the rescuers were attacked again witnesses it was not Russia. Why would it? To make a spectacular picture for the western press?
In Ukraine there was a coup first, absolutely meaningless as we can see now. Everybody has lost.
• Andrea
a lot of the raids against “moderate rebels” in civilian areas were double taps … and as long as the international coalition doesn’t want to drop bombs on those areas seems legit to believe those double taps were made by russians…or syrians … as i guess are now under the same hierarchy … russian made, or russian ordered anyway…
Am i wrong?
• Sam
The Ukrainians seemed to have won. They are slowly but surely getting rid of the corruption that Russians tolerate.
The corrupt Ukrainian president fled to your home, Russia, where everyone tolerates corruption. He’d go to jail in real countries.
Russia doesn’t need external enemies, it is going to destroy itself.
Double tap, Russian planes bomb all the witnesses.
• stranger
I would not be so optimistic. Ukrainian currency vs USD has fallen 3 times and proportionally lowed were the standard of living. Europe is going to be disappointed soon, there is a lot of critics arisen and actually EU didn’t even promised much. Holland is going to conduct a referendum on the Ukrainian association and the sentiments there are not so nice. The trading ties with Russia, a major trade partner, are being torn. Corruption flourish, that is not what Russia brings, that is something intrinsic to Ukraine as well regardless of who is the president. So again as the result of all this meaningless madness everybody looses, except US may be.
• Sam
You need to decide if you love Putin or you love Russia.
Only one is going to exist in a few years…..
A corrupt Putin FSB Russia, or a Russia for real Russians.
Russia is full of the great Russian people, but Putin is the new Hitler, his path will destroy Russia.
The West didn’t humiliate Russia, the Russians humiliated themselves. And they are doing it again.
• stranger
Putin will go sooner or later. I’m afraid the problem is not exactly in Putin. If it were so simple.
• Mad Dog
Sam is right here. And the retort from Stranger is also a very important question to ponder. China is also hell bent on repressing dissent and Xi is doing his damnedest to bring everyone in line under the party banner. Once China begins to feel confident, there will be hell to pay in Russia as well…they have what they feel is a valid historical claim to parts of Russia and they have shown they will back up such claims. Russia is a spoiled child, but China will become a rabid tiger in the not too distant future. So, Russia should start thinking about future alliances and stop the silliness in Ukraine.
• stranger
Do you know btw that Russia gave China some small islands at the border? While Japan cannot get Kuril islands back, those taken by Russia in ww2, and still cannot forget it.
As for the full scale war, first of all nobody needs it, there are other economic interests and economic means to drain a country or rob it by own oligarchs. Look at Argentina for example, Russia in 90th and still, etc. There are technologies of ‘color revolutions’ like Arab Spring, recently Ukraine, geopolitics to split neighbor countries in a region, like in the ME, etc. That are more realistic scenarios. While the full scale war is not possible due to the nuclear defense.
• Sam
Russia in the 90’s? Russian Oligharchs and Putin are still robbing your country, and you support them!
Color revolutions, do you really think they are sponsored by the CIA, not just a bunch a people unhappy with their corrupt governments or ruling class?
The US gave Ukraine $5 billion but the US gave Russia $30 billion in the same time period.
The Russians are the ones splitting neighbors, by calling the Ukrainians Fascits and Neo-Nazis. Ukrops
Russia has more Neo-Nazis and Fascits, you can easily find them online. Many of they are in Dombass fighting.
Russians and Ukrainians probably will lose their brotherhood feeling for generations, all bc people like Putin and you.
Russia is going to fall apart from within, nothing with the CIA, just Kremlin mismanagement.
Part of eastern Russia will probably be sold to China, bc Putin can’t afford to manage it.
Putin is a FSB/FSB guy, he doesn’t understand economics, and now he is a war monger…. Georgia, Transnistria, Ukraine, and Syria.
• stranger
“The US gave Ukraine $5 billion but the US gave Russia $30 billion in the same time period” where exactly did those money come to?
Potential new oligarchs has already lined up like vultures. Michail Khodorkovskiy for example, calling for a revolution and saying it is not necessarily be bloody. I mean it will not be gone when Putin finally leaves.
3. Andrea
If Russia had nothing to do with that hospital why did MoD barked so many useless and inconsistent statements … if it wasn’t them …
Here in Italy we use this figure of speech: “the first hen to sing is the one who made the egg”…
HAHAHAHAH…respecting international laws…hahahaha…respecting ONE international law….they forgot all the others…

US Stocks Close August On Sour Note; DJIA Off 48 Pts
Published: Aug 31, 2009 5:04 p.m. ET
(UPDATES with additional company information beginning in the 9th paragraph.)
NEW YORK (MarketWatch) -- An overnight stock market slide in China spooked investors in U.S. industrial, materials and energy companies, including Caterpillar, Alcoa and Exxon Mobil, as a flight to safety weighed on U.S. stocks Monday.
Overall, the Dow slid 47.92 points, or 3.54%, to 9496.28. The Standard & Poor's 500 fell 8.31, or 0.81%, to 1020.62, and the Nasdaq Composite dropped 19.71, or 0.97%, to 2009.06.
Notably, the large-cap dominated Dow outpaced both of the other indexes on Monday, highlighting traders' bias toward less risky investments during the session. Given the Dow gained 324.67 points, or 3.54% in August, marking its fifth month out of five in the green, several investors are preaching caution going into September. For one, the recent rally has coincided with the light volume summer months.
Moreover, while economic data have gotten better, there are those that doubt the economic landscape has improved enough to warrant such a vast rally.
"What worries me the most is this universal belief that the economic recovery is on strong footing," said Ben Halliburton, chief investment officer for Tradition Capital Management. "The past six-week move had a lot of people panicking in, with low volume and a lot more buyers than sellers, so it trended up."
For August, the S&P 500 increased 33.14, or 3.36%, and the Nasdaq Composite tacked on 30.56, or 1.54%. Both indexes marked their sixth-consecutive month higher, the longest winning streak for the S&P 500 since January 2007 and the longest streak for the Nasdaq since August 2003.
Helping offset some of the broad market weakness was a pick-up in deal activity for some larger firms.
Notably, media and entertainment giant Walt Disney agreed to acquire Marvel Entertainment, the creator of Spider-Man and thousands of other characters, for about $4 billion. Marvel shareholders will receive $30 a share in cash plus about 0.745 Disney share for each Marvel share. Disney slid 80 cents, or 3%, to 26.04, but Marvel jumped 9.72, or 25%, to 48.37.
Baker Hughes agreed to an acquisition of fellow oilfield-services provider BJ Services for $5.5 billion in cash and stock, marking the first big deal since commodity prices began tumbling in mid-2008. Baker Hughes finished down 3.65, or 10%, at 34.45, though BJ Services rose 63 cents, or 4.1%, to 16.06.
American International Group slumped 4.90, or 9.8%, to 45.33, after soaring for nine-straight trading days. Barron's wrote the insurer's stock is now overpriced, adding that by its math, AIG's tangible commons shareholder equity is negative.
Macquarie cut its stock investment rating on aerospace giant Boeing to neutral from outperform, saying it believes the stock is fully valued and lacking near-term catalysts. The Dow component lost 1.37, or 2.7%, to 49.67, on Monday.
Cooper Industries' move to Ireland made it ineligible for the S&P 500 Index, with S&P removing the electrical tools maker from the index and replacing it with specialty-gas distributor Airgas. Cooper closed down 1.38, or 4.1%, to 32.25, while Airgas rose 50 cents, or 1.1%, to 46.50.
Engineering and construction company Shaw Group (Nasdaq), off 1.54, or 5%, to 29.33, was downgraded to neutral from overweight by JPMorgan, which said it believes domestic markets are facing near-term challenges.
Kinetic Concepts has what JPMorgan believes is "a growing issue" with the performance of its Strattice dermal matrix in breast reconstruction, a belief that sent shares of the medical-technology company down 1.31, or 3.9%, to 31.95. JPMorgan said it's consulted with surgeons in recent weeks and discussions lead it to believe Strattice can lead to a higher rate of complications in breast reconstruction.
Qwest Communications International named veteran executive Teresa Taylor to replace Chief Operating Officer Thomas Richards, who has accepted a job as president and COO of CDW. Qwest closed down 17 cents, or 4.5%, to 3.59.

Looking at Zach Sobiech, you would see him as a typical 17-year-old boy. But Zach isn't like other kids. Zach has an untreatable form of cancer that is going to cut his life short. But instead of weeping and being sad, he is a happy kid living life to the fullest. And he even wrote a song about it.
Zach was diagnosed with steosarcoma in 2009. A rare, cancerous bone tumor, osteosarcoma affects just 800 people each year in the U.S. Since learning of his cancer, Zach has gone through months of chemo, a major hip replacement, various minor surgeries and four lung surgeries.
Zach, who is known for his love of music and guitar, didn't let the news hold him back. He took all of his emotions and thoughts and put them into a song. His song "Clouds" is his way of saying goodbye to his friends and family. In the catchy tune, he sings “And we’ll go up, up, up, but I’ll fly a little higher. We’ll go up in the clouds, because the view is a littler nicer. Up here, my dear. It won’t be long now; it won’t be long now.”
Wouldn't it be nice if we all had the point of view that Zach has? He isn't scared, he isn't worried. He is channeling his emotions and putting them into music, the one thing that everyone world wide can relate to. His song has over 400,000 views on YouTube, and it can also be purchased on iTunes. all proceeds from “Clouds” will go to support the Zach Sobiech Osteosarcoma Fund.

LELAND, NC (WWAY) -- Leland Police Chief Tim Jayne's beef with WWAY apparently runs so deep, he withheld information from the public about an armed man who robbed a credit union Friday to prove his point.
Just hours after the robbery, Jayne sent out a news release to inform local media and alert the citizens of Leland. We discovered, though, he deleted our e-mail address from his distribution list. There were even names of journalists on the list who hadn't worked in Wilmington media for months, some for years.
"I was out of town Friday," Farris wrote. "When I returned last night I read your email regarding the handling of the armed robbery press release. How anyone at the Town feels about your reporting or your station's reporting of events and operations at the Town of Leland is immaterial. All media outlets need to be 'fed from the same spoon.' I am making sure WWAY is included on any future press releases from the Town. Please accept my apology."
I have followed the stories
I have followed the stories coming out of Leland and I have to say that this WWAY sounds a lot like the National Inquirer. It seems they are looking to find things that simply aren't there and are "creating" news stories when there isn't anything.
Sad "news" for journalists everywhere....making you guys look bad.
another coverup coming again, sounds like something Leland PD would try to do....
I hope that he sues you for
I hope that he sues you for libel after you can't prove that he deleted your email address from his distribution list.
October 24's Rant
Kevin Wuzzardo is a true professional. Well done, sir. The apologies confirmed that Jayne did something wrong. Now that WWAY can begin reporting on the facts (as in specific names), you police officers and their supporters really need to pipe down with your UNFOUNDED criticisms. Do you think that they don't know how to hold their hand? They're not going to report on anything they don't already have proof of, and some of you need a quick lesson on the difference between an article or news story, an editorial piece, and a public forum. Keep the pressure on. It's working. We're patient. They're sweating.
Kevin, great rant!
Freedom of the Press should NEVER be suppressed!
It should if it is fiction!
It should if it is fiction!
Just thought of..
Just thought of something. Let's get a producer in Wilmington to produe a new show - "As the Stomach Turns - Brunswick/Columbus County. It could be a reality show with all the law enforcement of Leland and Tabor City and all the yahoos involved in the situations in Leland and with Mr. Soles and his boys. They could play themselves - wouldn't take too much writing. Over the past couple of years, they have been given enough material to last awhile. It would be a kind of Dukes of Hazard meet Cops. What you think? Could we sell it?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
Glad I don't live there
Glad I don't live in Leland. I feel sorry for the residents. They are stuck with a police chief that they need to get rid of NOW, and maybe a few police officers as well. They are giving law enforcement a bad name and make it hard on those who do the right thing and perform excellent service.
It wouldn't hurt to get rid of their mayor and some other higher ups. The folks of Leland need to step up NOW and get this situation fixed. Your only hope now is that the FBI will find enough to put many of them in the pokey!!!
It's time
It's time for the Leland PD, and the town, to come clean and open up.
I personally believe that Leland residents have lost confidence in the Chief Tim Jayne, and to a lesser degree the department.
Settling the lawsuit brought by the female officer was possibly the smartest thing they have done so far.
If I had been on a jury hearing that case, $18,000 would have been a drop in the bucket of damages that would have been awarded to her.
That incident alone, shows lack of leadership of a department that desperately needs to revamp itself, and Officers that still have a fraternity attitude.
The Brunswick County Sheriff's department has transformed itself under the leadership of Sheriff Ingram. He offered to lend his Internal Investigations officer to assist the town of Leland, and at least that would have been an impartial professional to help clear up all the clouds that have been hanging over Leland. And he offered his services for FREE. Why was his help refused?
The SBI has been summoned by the Chief, so it's possible that we will see some changes made.
However, Leland officials need to learn that departments do not run on autopilot. Many of the allegations made could have been avoided with a little oversight.
The town needs to keep it's Chief on a short leash, and demand professionalism and accountability.
That is the job of elected Town officials.
Taking a marked patrol car to another state, without official business
is a serious matter.
To the town leaders of Leland....."Snap out of it". Wake up.
Stupid is as stupid does!
What a great quote! Of course another great qoute is "lying is another form of mangement", by Chief Timothy J. Jayne!
Keep digging! There are a lot of people looking & Listening!
Juvenile and disgraceful
is the behavior this police chief is showing. You can tell a lot about one's leadership ability or the lack thereof when things don't go their way. This is a blatant neglect of duty and malfeasance to exclude a media outlet from vital community safety informaton out of spite towards a particular media outlet. This man is writing his own obituary as a police chief. And he is verifying my point - big city police commanders and/or middle managers usually DO NOT make good small town police chiefs. Someone please explain the trappings of this allure to me.
Dear Chief "Balboa" Jayne, Bill "Tic Tac Head" Kozak, And "The Shadow" Slick Rick Delapea,
As you read these comments as we all know you do or you wouldn't have done what you did to "WWAY" Why do you not comment? Defend yourself if your innocent!! I'm certain I would. Anyone of you could defend yourself on air if you wanted to. Man Up<-----LOL! Get it? its a joke! I said man up to Timillicky! Oh never mind!!! everyone else gets it!!!Say's who? Say's Kblue!
Yes they need to go, but........
Yes, they need to go but you are ridiculas!! You need to grow up. I am assuming that you are old enough to know that two wrongs do not make a right. You are making yourself look like a fool with your rants. I am not affiliated with Leland PD what so ever and I thank the need a complete overhaul, but you have some serious issues mam!! I would love to know what role or agenda you have in this mess
Drama queen
While I agree it is time for Leland to make some changes, don't you think you are a bit of a drama queen? Not the brightest in the bunch either. Do you really think anyone cares about your ignorant cook out? Say's who? Can't buy a clue blue.
Have you??
Have you been practicing your simple addition?????? I see you still on here taking up for these dirty cops!! Don't write anything back calling me cupcake like you do everybody else. That's getting old.
I have been practicing...
I have been practicing, and you still add up to a cupcake, but if that is getting old and under your skin I will stop calling you that. Have a good day buttercup.
Getting to you?
Whats the matter Grand? Am I getting to you sweetheart? You mad cause my post's are funny? Just for that last comment? Your not invited to my cook out! Its better that way Grand...We were gonna have Dumb Dumb dumplings and I didn't want you to feel bad and think we named them after you!!!<--------OH SNAP!!!KBlue made another funny!!!! Say's who? Say's the always funny Kblue!
The thing is that you are
The thing is that you are not funny. You're just someone who comes off as a bumbling fool.
Listen buttercup, no one will show up to your cook out. I doubt you will have room for many in your single wide anyways. Let's get real...You're a wanna be cop, and a never will be. You know it and so does everyone else. You work in Leland because you can't hack it anywhere else. This is the most drama you have ever been involved in and you can't handle it like an adult. Your posts sound like they were written by a three year old, not even close to being funny. I'm thinking you should get your application in at Hardees while the getting is good. You will be gone with the rest of them. I know you are not aware of that yet, but that is why you are called Can't buy a clue blue. Now get off of pappy's laptop before you get caught again.
I'll be at the cookout!!!!! I may set up a poker run to raise a little money for the three that is about to lose their job!!! We can ride up to Grands trailer and take him some cupcakes and buttercups because I know he will be up there crying!!!!! Grand ole what nursing home are you in????
Listen here mall cop!!!
There are really no want to be cops they are cops because that was all they could do buttercup!
You think your posts are funny? Only to you. You're boring the rest of us to tears.
They say Will Rogers never met a man he didn't like, obviously he never met you.
Dont listen to him Blue!!
Dont listen to him Blue!! Keep up the good work. YOU'RE MY BOY BLUE!!!!
You said it! "Boy" is correct!
But instead of "boy blue", it's more like "boy Coward". It's amazing the kahunas people have when they don't have to show their face or give their real name. Cyber warriors = faceless, human "yellow-bellies" without a spine. A new sub-species of jellyfish that doesn't have the ability to sting...
Everyone knows who I am. Had you been keeping up you too would know this. People??? I want to Quote "Guestofferson" "Cyber warriors = faceless, human "yellow-bellies" without a spine"<--------This is what "Guestofferson" wrote. "Guestofferson" wrote that! Not Dave, not Frank, not Adam. But a Faceless yellow bellied big jerk face without a spine!! Guestofferson!!! That was cute in one paragraph you described yourself in perfect harmony! Everyone is losing track of the issues and paying attention to my humor. Most agree there is a problem. Fix it! Say's who? Say's Kblue!
not I
"Everyone knows who I am".... really? You have been registered on here for a little over a week.
"Kblue" sounds like a toilet bowl cleaner.
I have no idea who you are...
...and frankly don't give a damn. Evidently unbeknownst to you, people can read and people can see your spite and they realize your cowardice. Your silly child-like conclusions to your posts are no more than additional displays of your ignorance and show your lack of education.
Sorry boy coward, but if people out there really know who you are, you should be more careful about what you brag about and who you wish all of those undesireable circumstances on. Karma is really bad about showing its face! And unlike you, Karma doesn't mind showing it!
Says who? ME to you!
Do you?
Good morning officer. Have
Good morning officer. Have you started looking for a new line of work yet? Your days are numbered.

It's likely that I'm playing it too soon after "Final Fantasy IX" and very likely that I'm expecting too much since I've heard it's some kind of masterpiece, but I'm very disappointed in "Final Fantasy X" so far. (spoilers herein)
My biggest complaint, right up front: No pause during battles! My mom's phone rings constantly, and even though it's usually telemarketers, I have to answer because I'm waiting for potential landlords to contact me. So I let the enemies kill me, or I let the caller hang up on the answering machine.
On a larger scale, I don't like the game because it's taking me too long to get the story. I'm now six hours in, at Kakilla or whatever (the island town that gets smashed by Sin), and it's starting to come together. But for a long time, I wanted to throw the controller down because I was being fed way too much information with no context. The whole opening chapter in Zanarkand, the ruins, the time with the pirates, washing up on the beach where Wakka is, all that was extremely frustrating. It's a Final Fantasy tradition to open the game in medias res, but this one takes it too far. (IX was a pretty bad offender too, but not this bad.)
I'm also not liking the lack of exploration. I can run around small, enclosed areas only. If I try to run off, Tidus stops and says "I have to go the other way!" or some peasant tries to stop me. Even when I do get to explore those enclosed areas, I very rarely find any treasure. Previous games had lots of treasure, most of all IX, which often gave you 3-5 rewards per room. I'm lucky to get one reward in 3-5 rooms in X. Why even bother? Why not just run ahead to the next plot point? Because I'm sick of fucking plot points. This game is all plot points. It gives me a plot point, then lets me play, but the only thing I can do while playing is run three rooms to the next plot point. I want to feel like I'm really doing something in the game, but I don't. Player control is so limited, at least so far.
I have other complaints, but I think they'll clear up in time. I must say that the one really obvious achievement with the game, the graphics, are amazing. I just watched Yuna perform the funeral dance on water (the "sending" I think they called it), and I was quite impressed. But it's the age-old problem in video games, too much attention paid to graphics and too little to anything else.
Minor thing: I love switching in characters during fights. Finally, all the PCs can come with me while I travel! I only get three in a fight at a time, but since the newcomer immediately gets a turn when I bring him/her in, I feel like I can use all of my PCs, and I really love that.
I'll write about the game again when I beat it.
Brannan Conrad | June 5, 2002
Yeah, the exploration thinggets worse later too. My main complaint about all the newer FF games (with the exception of 7) is the lck of secrets and treasure.
Scott Hardie | June 5, 2002
Yes, generally annoying. FF9 had a great deal of hidden treasure in towns and dungeons, but 90% of it was stuff like potions and phoenix downs. I'd like to give you guys a lot of opportunities for treasure in my RPG, but since there's no real searching involved, just a random calculation based on your stats, I don't know if it will be worth it.
Matthew Preston | June 6, 2002
There are many treasures and secrets in the game, moreso later on. There were times when I was watching Kevin play that he found things I would have never even have begun to try and find. At the end of the game when you get the airship, there are whole new lands and caves and the such to explore that give you some of the more powerful and exotic items. You might need an online faq though.

While I am very enthusiastically in support of participatory action research as well as asset-based community development (ABCD) I am also in favor of combining methods to use, whatever is most effective. In this case, neither of the above seemed to work for the Tenderloin Senior Outreach Project but a combination of methods utilizing adaptations of Saul Alinsky’s Rules for Radicals and ABCD did accomplish the task. Addressing a specific issue was not as effective as addressing the overall situation and engaging the community members in contributing solutions that included them in the process. Given what I have researched, it is infinitely more effective to engage the community (top and bottom) in a combined approach that brings about effective change.
What is telling in this situation, in San Francisco, in the United States, where the focus is usually on personal satisfaction and individual gain, the focus moved from one of consumeristic selfishness to one of collective action. The TSOP began a change in focus, moving from advocating to organizing and facilitating programs that helped residents advocate for themselves. The organization is sadly no longer in existence and I am wondering why that is the case unless they were never able to sustain funding for what they did next: Help residents form their own advocacy committees and train them to effectively advocate for necessary change themselves. As it turns out, its goals of community organizing and leadership training were not received with open arms by the foundation and corporate funding sources that had so generously given to TSOP in the past. While it is good to sometimes rely on outside funding, it isn’t always ideal, and a better solution is one that I have been hearing lately from a few colleagues: find a way to become financially stable without outside generosity unless those outside sources are completely aligned with what you are doing.
And though, I have little patience for ineffective bureaucracy, I see the need of groups and organizations to train and teach individuals to form collectives to effectively advocate for themselves as leaders. I see this as a form of communitarian anarchism under some form of some form “benevolent bureaucracy,” though hoping the bureaucracy is some form of benevolent bureaucracy is dangerous at bare minimum unless checked with necessary balances.

What Makes a Life?
Recently, Richie has been posting, on Facebook and his website, pieces of ephemera from his bicycle history with his reflections and backstory. Since his involvement with bicycles, bicycle racing, and frame building dates back to the early 1970’s this project, taken as a whole, has become a testament of sorts to his life—his choices, his experiences, his observations.
Tonight, we go to my parent’s sixtieth wedding anniversary dinner party. To give them something, my four siblings and I have been combing through photographs. There are lots of photos of sailing—comfy coastal sailing and gritty ocean sailing. There is one of my Dad hang gliding, another of my Mom horseback riding in the Grand Canyon (looking none too thrilled), a lovely one of her resting on a Swiss mountaintop à la Sound of Music, and one of them in Russia with a young Russian couple they met when they were stuck there for a bit.
Reading the ephemera and perusing the photographs makes me think, what makes a life? Is it adventure and experiences—new places, travel? Is it people—those you’ve met and interacted with within your passion? Or is it something more fundamental?
The common denominator in Richie’s ephemera and my parents’ travels is connection. Each of them has lived—is living—a life filled with connection. Connections to people, places, adventures, experiences, words, ideas, nature.
So what makes a life?
The courage to connect is what makes a life.

3. He's very quickly course-correcting himself with this and "Told You So" after "Sky Walker" (one of his first misfires in a long time for me). Excited for the album!

4. Sky Walker is soooo good. Perched for the album.
5. Until now he was just the guy who was on a Dua Lipa song and changed the pronouns in a Weekend cover.
6. I love these. For some reason I feel like the ship has sailed for Miguel, but I can't not stan when he's delivering quality bops.
No one knows about that. He's best known for this:

13. Really solid album. Cohesive; short and sweet. Banana Clip and Caramelo Duro are my non-single highlights.
14. Bops alert.

This has been on rotate for me today! It's so compact with absolutely no fillers for me.

'Hauntology': Berkeley Art Museum show
'Hauntology': Mix of genres may leave you with haunting memory

"One of the wonderful things about this show is that it's something that can appeal to everyone, from an 8-year-old child who loves ghosts to an intellectual or art historian," said Lawrence Rinder, museum director and co-curator of the show.
"I think it's very open-ended," he said.
And that's the heart of Hauntology, a phrase coined by French philosopher Jacques Derrida in the early '90s. He described it as a philosophy of history that upsets the progression of time by proposing that the present is simultaneously haunted by the past and the future.
The idea was used to discuss a post-Soviet era when communism fell and society was haunted by the memory of an anticipated utopian future.
"So the idea is basically that we're no longer in a society that is motivated by this giddy optimism of this perfect world," Rinder said. "Which isn't to say we're in this terrible world, but, according to Derrida, we're haunted by what that perfect world felt like and how it will never truly exist."
That sense of loss is evident in the exhibition. The painting "The Enigma of Kaspar Hauser" by Miller Updegraff depicts the real-life 19th century German man who was reportedly locked away in a basement for the first 17 years of his life before being released. He was taught the ways of the world by a group of men who took him in, only to be mysteriously killed shortly thereafter.
The painting shows Hauser seated in a large room with a distant look on his face.
There's also a collection of photos from Donal Mosher's "October Country" series featuring an outstretched hand reaching for a newborn and another of an older woman outside in winter, snow dusted in her hair, her face drawn toward the ground before her. Mosher describes his subjects as "ghosts in their own world," unable to change their inherited trauma and haunted by their status in life. The woman is the product of her struggles, filled with working-class despair, repression and social invisibility.
You may still grapple with the concept of Hauntology after a tour, but this little exhibition certainly retains a haunting effect. As Rinder puts it, "The bottom line is that the show just has great art in it."
Through Dec. 5. 11 a.m.- 5 p.m. Wed.-Sun. Berkeley Art Museum, 2626 Bancroft Way, Berkeley. (510) 642-0808. www.bampfa.berkeley.edu.

My blog has moved!
and update your bookmarks.
Sunday, April 29, 2012
During the competition, Slayte was slow, tired and uninterested. He redeemed himself in a very odd way. After the competition, he was TOTALLY crapped out. He couldn't even hardly move. Even though he was extremely tired during the competition, he never ran off the field and never quit. At the time, it seemed like he just didn't care, but in reality, he was simply by trying to stick with it.
After the UFO competition, there was a long distance competition. I don't ever practice distance throws because of my elbow ulnar nerve entrapment problem which causes tingling, weakness and pain in my elbow to my hand. Luckily this problem is slowing improving. I have good form and understand wind really well. Enzo redeemed himself by winning the Men's division with a 65.7 yard throw. I wanted to hit a 70 yarder, but given the fact that there was no wind to help the throws, 65+ was still pretty good. Imagine if I actually worked on my distance throws and footwork. First, I know I'd be able to compete with the guys that can really throw far. Secondly, I would screw up my elbow again. Although it was fun, the long distance stuff really isn't of much interest to me. Freestyle and toss/fetch are much more fun to me. Don't get me wrong, I still like it. It involves throwing a disc to my best buddy, so it's still great! Enzo, on the other hand, LOVES distance. Not like freestyle, but he really, really, really thinks it's awesome.
Since Enzo won, next year's award will have a picture of him on it!!!
Tooney redeemed herself by getting 3rd place in the women's long distance with a throw somewhere over 40 yards. Overall, Tooney did really well, though.
Jenn and I also have come up with a new theory on how to try to train Enzo for toss/fetch. We are going to try working with him in practice where we don't call him back. Throw the disc and just let him come back when he wants to. When I do freestyle or long distance throws, he runs back to me fast. He doesn't screw around with the disc. The difference is with toss/fetch, I'm calling, yelling, etc, trying to get him to come back faster. We will see how it works out, but I have a feeling it may work.

A compound effective to chemotherapy-resistant cancer cells identified
A compound effective in killing chemotherapy-resistant glioblastoma-initiating cells (GICs) has been identified, raising hopes of producing drugs capable of eradicating refractory tumours with low toxicity.
Despite longstanding and earnest endeavours to develop new remedies, the prognosis of most glioblastoma patients undergoing chemotherapies and radiotherapies remains poor.
Glioblastoma, a malignant glioma, has a median survival period of approximately 15 months.
One of the reasons for this is the lack of methods to eradicate its cancer stem cells, or glioblastoma-initiating cells (GICs), that demonstrate tumourigenicity (ability to form tumours) and resistance to chemotherapies and radiotherapies.
In a study published in the journal Neuro-Oncology, the collaborative research group between Hokkaido University, FUJIFILM Corporation, and the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST) successfully cultured human GICs resistant to temozolomide (TMZ), a standard drug used for treating glioblastoma.
Next, using Fujifilm's compound library, they conducted a high-throughput drug screening to identify a compound that can specifically kill or inflict damage to GICs, not normal cells such as neural stem cells and astrocytes.
The efficacy of the candidate compounds was examined using cytotoxic activities, expressions of various cell markers, and tumour-suppressive activities as indicators.
Compound 10580 was successfully identified as being capable of killing or inflicting damages to GICs.
The research group identified that the compound inhibited the activity of dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (DHODH), an essential enzyme for pyrimidine synthesis found in the mitochondria's inner membrane.
While analysing the compound's efficacy, it was also discovered that the compound decreased the expression of stem cell factors in GICs, unraveling a part of its molecular mechanism.
Moreover, the compound was orally administered to tumour-bearing mice, which confirmed its strong anti-cancer efficacy.
The mice exhibited no visible toxicity, suggesting that the compound is non-toxic to normal cells.
"Compound 10580 is a promising candidate for developing drugs against glioblastoma and other recurring cancers. Further technological developments of a drug delivery system or 10580 derivatives, which can cross the blood-brain barrier, are needed," said Toru Kondo of Hokkaido University's Institute for Genetic Medicine who led the study.

Technology: Creation, or Creator??
Invention and Technology: Ensuring Nothing Ever Really Changes
VR Technology and the Experience of Being Dead
Every new technology ever developed by humanity has been seized, controlled, censored, and used by the terrorist structure of government, to manipulate and diminish human minds, to actively conceal and distort all Truth, and to strengthen the illusion of legitimacy for The Matrix of Universal Illusion.
Now we have Virtual Reality, a new technology still in its infancy. All who are sane know this technology is already and will always be, owned and controlled by the terrorists who claim governmental leadership of earth. Not even the tiniest nook or cranny will be a Virtual Reality Free Zone.
government, the darkest force ever invented by you humans, will outlaw and ban the VR programs that expose Truth, or render them invisible via media control, in the name of “public safety”. Yes, it will keep you safe, so that it may murder you all, after extracting every last ounce of slavery from you.
So, let the outlaw mind focus upon the outlaw usefulness of VR technology!
If you look at the internet, television, radio, music videos, video games, cell phones, etc…, with the Alien Eye of Truth, you can see the fate of VR is already predetermined: It will be used to sell things, to provide a new illusion of sexual “freedom”, to create new and increase existing forms of intoxication and addiction, to weave new mythologies of religion and heaven, to distort all human perception of actual reality, and so much more.
Virtual Reality technology will seal the doomed fate of humanity, functioning as the most effective form of mind control and social indoctrination ever invented by the species. And all the while it will be marketed as a glorious new form of and gateway to, personal freedom and empowerment. Just like the lie of the internet, only hundreds of times more harmful, enslaving, Truth-destroying.
As an outlaw mind, I seek to understand how VR technology can be subverted to serve the outlaw ideology of Forbidden Truth.
In My brilliant analysis, I find very few ways Virtual Reality technology can be deployed to serve and enhance Truth. After all, it is, by its very technological framework, the fictionalization of reality, of actuality. VR technology compromises reality and Truth, by the very fact of its existence and usage.
One of the only potentially useful deployments of VR technology, would be to allow humans to “experience” an accurate interpretation of their own deaths, of being dead. Humanity hides from the Forbidden Truths of death in many different ways, but what makes each and every one of these Self-deceptions easy to achieve is that nobody can, even if they want to, personally experience a True and accurate simulation of being dead.
VR technology can change this. A program can be developed to accurately mimic the personal experience of being dead. Such a program could serve as a Mind Bomb awakening of Forbidden Truth, shattering the Matrix of Universal Illusion.
The Matrix will use VR technology to conceal and destroy Truth. It will outlaw the use of VR programs, software, and simulations that expose and reveal Truth. In many cases there will be no need to outlaw such programs, because the developers of VR technology are and will be in the pocket of government, and will know exactly what they are allowed to do, what the government will allow to be provided to the citizen-slaves, what the government will allow to become popular and widespread. So nobody who possesses the technological skill to do VR well, will even try to build a program that simulates the experience of being dead.
What is it like to be dead?? The horror of being dead is unmatched in the annals of human experience. But you fools don’t know this, because you have not and cannot experience it. Outlaw Virtual Reality technology can change this. Sure, it will drive some users insane. So what?? You are all already insane right now, anyway! 🙂
Outlaw VR programmers, get to work!
Virtual Reality: Destroyer of Reality and Truth
First there was the storyteller, intoxicating the minds of other humans by verbally imposing his tales. Then came the books of stories, mass produced, able to reach a much wider audience. Then came radio, and television, and video games, and texting, and the internet.
Each wave progressively more sophisticated, entrancing, and enticing, but all built upon the same perverse goal: To create a universe of fictionalized reality, and impose this universe upon humanity on a mass scale, to blot and drown out all reality, all Truth. To create an alternate universe of escape, for the mentally destroyed masses to hide out. Welcome to Fictionville, population 7.2 billion.
And now comes Virtual Reality, taking the destruction of reality and Truth to a new level, and you pathetic idiots are chomping at the bit, desperately eager to dive into ALMOST reality. Why, it’s going to be VIRTUALLY real, awesomesauce!
The hive mind of universal illusion is constantly churning out new & different structures & methods of Truth destruction, useless and toxic distractions to squeeze another 50, 100 years of subservience & death worship out of you, the living dead who cannot see their own coffins.
From money to heaven to slave ownership to horse-drawn carriages to automobiles to airplanes to radios to televisions to video games to the internet, the list of Truth and reality destroyers is endless, and never recognized by you defective fools. Never recognized even in hindsight, much less in foresight,which is what is Truly necessary, to nip in the bud what is about to entrance you.
Virtual reality is invading human consciousness, right now. It is the latest weapon of attack, of the hive mind. Virtual reality is the worship of illusion, religion and the video game melded and put on steroids. Virtual reality can never augment reality and Truth, it can only destroy them further.
If you humans were sane you would destroy virtual reality, as you demand factual reality. But no, dead eyes can never and will never see Truth.

2016, Oscilloscope Laboratories, 85 min, USA, Dir: Sophia Takal
Two friends, both actresses (Mackenzie Davis from “Halt and Catch Fire” and Caitlin FitzGerald from “Masters of Sex”), leave Los Angeles for Big Sur to enjoy a weekend getaway and reconnect. Once alone, however, the two women's suppressed jealousies and deep-seated resentments bubble to the surface, causing them to lose grasp not just of the true nature of their relationship but also of their own identities.
1974, 89 min, Spain, Dir: Carlos Aured
International horror icon Paul Naschy shreds his renowned lycanthropic persona and submerges himself into the dark and unsettling world of giallo. Suffering from recurring dreams of murder, an ex-convict (Naschy) is hired as a caretaker of an estate owned by three very strange sisters. But shortly after his arrival, his nightmares turn to reality as a killer stalks blue-eyed women to remove their eyes.

...but the concept of REACH (short for high school within REACH) is simple: work with local teachers to inspire ninth graders with the hows and whys of high school and then give them a scholarship when they go.
Our REACH program kicks off every year with a teacher training event. Teachers then take the year-long mentorship program back to their classrooms where their ninth graders use the REACH materials to learn about why high school is so important and how they can go. The ninth graders watch inspirational videos of students from villages like theirs who went to high school and college, and use a workbook with exercises on self-esteem, identity information and goal setting as well as locations of high school.
During the year, our field staff visit each school twice to meet with both students and teachers to continue to motivate and empower them. The visits also serve to track the progress of the students and to see how much of the program the teachers have implemented.
At the end of the school year, students use the scholarship vouchers they have received from Escalera to enroll in the high school of their choice. High schools send Escalera the vouchers and Escalera pays the enrollment fees for REACH students for their first two years in high school.
Because REACH is run as a randomized control trial, we know exactly how many students go to high school who would otherwise have dropped out if not for REACH. We also use the data and feedback we collected from students, teachers, supervisors, and field staff to make improvements to the next year’s videos, workbooks, and program implementation

As we hinted at yesterday, when the news that Goldman Sachs (GS) would pay its top brass only in restricted stock, potential NYC condo sellers started freaking out. Why? None of those executives will likely be buying real estate paying in restricted stock.
Here's the thread over at the StreetEasy discussion board.
Even those who recognize that it's only 30 execs seem to think the trend will spread. And it might!

June isn't going so well.
June 4th, 2012 at 07:21 pm
We're only a few days in to the month but June isn't going so well so far. I'm not sure of the damage but I feel like I spent a lot of my piddly money. I also realized I have a graduation party and baby shower to buy gifts for. They will be really, really small gifts that I can hopefully supplement with coupons.
I returned an item that hasn't cleared yet so I'm hoping it will clear so I know how much extra money I'll have (I'm not sure if they'll return the shipping costs).
I have to calculate my $20 challenge money but I'm pretty sure I haven't had NSDs at all since last week. I'm kinda bummed about that but it seems like everyday I needed to buy something - one day it was only a stamp!
I'm setting a new goal for myself. My brother and I have been talking about it for a few weeks now but we want to go on a trip to Europe sometime in the next year. If I can pay off my Chase card by the end of August, I will take the leap and go.
Even though finances are tight, we are talking a bare bones budget: hostels, cheap flight, no souvenirs or tours or anything. We really just want to make our way through Europe and see what happens. I'm delighted at the idea. We haven't done a trip just the two of us. I have a savings bond that will mature when I'm 30 (I'm 28 now) so I'm considering cashing that in for the trip. I know it's what my great aunt (who gave it to me) would have wanted me to do with the money and it won't require taking any money away from debt repayment. Taking it out a year early isn't a huge loss from the interest that it's gaining.
I think this will be a nice treat and something that I am already really looking forward to. I hoping we can get by at about $2500 per person for a 2 week trip. I think it's very doable when I consider the costs of hostels, etc.

1. Jerry Says:
Hostels are a good idea, and there are also other options. Of course, if you have friends with whom you can stay, that is a great option, but there is also couchsurfers. It leads to a free night in someone's spare room or on their couch, and you can also have the insurance of other people vouching for the host, so you know they are nice. I have used it a few times with great success.

How to Ensure Continuous Improvement With Data Governance By Myles Suer
| RSS Feeds
Curious on how to ensure continuous improvement with data governance? We got you covered. Keep reading to learn the best steps to an effective process.
The post How to Ensure Continuous Improvement With Data Governance appeared first on Alation.
DevOps. Lean. Kaizen. What do all these disciplines have in common? Continuous improvement.
What Is Continuous Improvement?
Simply put, these systems pursue progress through a proven process. They make testing and learning a part of that process. And they continuously improve by integrating new insights into future cycles.
Borne of the Japanese business philosophy, kaizen today is most often associated with Toyota. The car manufacturer leverages kaizen to improve productivity. Using this methodology, teams will test new processes, monitor performance, and adjust based on results.
The goal of DataOps is to create predictable delivery and change management of data and all data-related artifacts. DataOps practices help organizations overcome challenges caused by fragmented teams and processes and delays in delivering data in consumable forms.
So how does data governance relate to DataOps? Data governance is a key data management process. For this reason, it needs to operate on the same DevOps/continuous improvement principles. But how would this work?
Continuous Improvement Applied to Data Governance
In order for data governance to continuously improve, practitioners need to think of data governance as a cyclical process. This process embeds continuous improvement into the system through steps that monitor and measure performance to (1) glean insights and (2) integrate those lessons into the governance system.
Data governance is a continuous process, not a “one and done” task. Data is “always on”, living, and in constant motion and thus the act of governing it is never done. In fact, the governance process should get better and better over time. For example, previously identified data stewards should become natural candidates for new and related assets as those assets are discovered. And with AI and machine learning helping along the way, less and less work will be required in successive cycles.
Like other elements within a DataOps process, data governance should become less and less human-intensive over time. Using the above continuous improvement cycle as the model, let’s look at each element and what can be accomplished during its portion of the process.
7 Steps to Continuous Improvement Data Governance
1. Establish Governance Framework
An effective data governance process aligns people, process, and technology in advance. In other words, leaders must clarify how things will be governed, who is responsible, and how success or failure will be measured.
These target commitments,expressed as policies and standards, should define completeness, quality, accuracy, timeliness, usage, access, and classifications for both metadata and data.
Traditionally, governance programs suffered from a reliance on dusty and inaccessible policy documents, which were organically meant to influence everyday business activities. These documents were, for the most part, overlooked, which is why traditional governance failed.
Modern governance is more effective because it takes a different approach, integrating policies into user workflow so people can see if the data they seek is bound by any regulations. This is why strategic policies must be linked to actionable implementation, in the form of data control rules, which connect to a variety of technology tools and platforms. As successive cycles create new insights, these rules can be adjusted accordingly.
2. Populate the Data Catalog
Governance requires knowledge and content. Historically, this knowledge has been gathered by assembling experts, stewards, and SMEs who identify key assets on a one-time basis. But today, the complexity and ongoing transformation of a modern enterprise make this approach unsustainable.
In an approach based on continuous improvement, organizations must identify key assets so their metadata can be ingested and analyzed. This process translates technical labels into natural language, making abbreviated, cryptic, and technical terms understandable to the wider community. As a goal, business stewards should have the tools to consistently and easily measure the gap between the governance standards and existing performance. This gap perpetuates an active cycle of assignment and continuous curation.
3. Empower Business Stewards
As implementation of governance begins for each business area, it’s critical to recognize and identify business stewards. As a goal, stewards should sit inside the business area and play a critical role in driving awareness, onboarding, moderating, and guiding participation. They are accountable for ensuring the targets in the policies and standards are maintained. Historically, governance teams have tasked stewards with primary responsibility for this enforcement work — they are the so-called policy enforcement officials of data.
However, in the modern era, there’s too much data and far too much change for stewards to keep up. To address this problem, potential stewards need to be discovered based on their current contributions and actual use of data. Those who use the data most often will most likely truly understand the data, so the goal is to build a community of stewards based on who knows the data best. Stewards and governance teams must build and foster a community of willing participants who are recognized and rewarded for making data governance a key piece of the organization’s culture.
4. Curate Assets
Curation is the governance subprocess of populating and refining the attributes of an asset; these details grant users greater trust through insight and knowledge. One objective of the governance process is to maintain the required attributes for each asset, as stipulated in the policies and standards. The business steward is accountable for operating by standards and making those standards known to top users and other volunteers. The key is to have training and recognition in place, so participants realize they have an ownership stake in the quality of the content.
5. Apply Policies and Controls
Once overarching enterprise data policies and standards are established, the next step is to implement data controls. This involves the creation of rules that are applied within a data source for the purpose of adjusting entitlements and monitoring. The rules are specific instances of the standards for each data source environment and are bi-directionally synced with the catalog. They could be created in the data source or a data governance application and then related to the enterprise policies and standards.
6. Drive Community Collaboration
A continuous governance process will create a self-perpetuating cycle of engagement and adoption. Community is the key to driving a data culture that scales while following quality norms and enforcing behaviors and policies. After new community members are onboarded and trained, they participate by sharing their knowledge on data quality and appropriate use of data. This increases the breadth, depth, and quality of information, which in turn attracts more new community members.
7. Monitor and Measure Curation
To establish a data governance process that improves over time, you need monitoring and measuring tools to understand how well the governance process is working. Business stewards in particular should measure curation progress against the policies and standards. Data leaders also need to measure whether data usage conforms to policies and compliance standards.
Parting Words
No data governance process is a walk in the park, but a process built on continuous improvement will transform your data processes and allow you to establish a DataOps framework. For many, this may be a new way of thinking. But those who are open to it will find it transformative. It is time we move up the success rates for using data and data governance.

2 Poems
by J.R. Toriseva
Followed by Q&A
My hands stained by bloodroots deep in April. The red
coat moss calling to the lungs of the downed maple. Asking
the question starting with what I hope to be a controlled
burn, risking only the smallest answer in the mystery
of bronze, in the bitter taste of copper. Somewhere deep
down here rest bones; before the glaciers were the dinosaurs,
before them the single-celled organisms that began the long march
of replication. This is time called back. Site white out.
This is the place where months ago I saw the slimed eggs of frogs,
but now winter has rewritten everything deep white. Roots are
inaccessible, trapped in frozen earth. I barter with ice. Spring
is accessible only by memory, and so often I forget the bite
of green. The midmorning thaw, the coming of the blackbirds,
the weight of the bobolink’s claws clenched on the sideways rope
of the long grass. The wind waiting on the tongue: a crimp, a murmur, a ruse.
This yellow-rumped warbler, she speaks swan.
These are the only visitors. The ones who come
after the trumpets. The ones who say they can teach
swans the wing flap, the air, the migration route
lost for some reason to deep memory, or perhaps they
are just too curious about clouds to follow
the deep migration routes. Perhaps they hear
the whispers of some other sort of routing,
one that spells doom and the end of their line.
But, nonetheless, loud and insistent.
Nonetheless, calls to them. Who else would follow
the airplane dressed as Mother Trumpeter? Who else
would mistake feathers for silicon and steel? Who else would
read the hieroglyphs of migration as stagnant? There is
not much company here; only the cows with their wooden
shoes. Only me, with my fixed labors. Me, with my deviled heart.
J.R. Toriseva’s “Dandelion Rites” was chosen for the anthology Days I Moved Through Ordinary Sound, published by City Lights. Her work has also appeared in or is forthcoming from The Cincinnati Review, Descant, Fulcrum, 14 Hills, Nimrod, The Adirondack Review, Grey Sparrow Journal, Soundings East, Radar Poetry, JACKET, and others. She has been awarded a waiter scholarship to Bread Loaf Writers’ Conference and the Mary Merritt Henry Prize in Poetry. Currently in the English department at SUNY-GCC, she has also taught for California Poets in the Schools, San Francisco WritersCorps, and Literary Arts of Portland, OR, and Mills College.
Q: What is your approach to getting “unstuck” on a poem.
A: When writing the lines to talk to me and talk with each other. When like calls to like the poem shows its form. This may take an hour, or this may take a year. Waiting is an important part of writing for me, as is listening. If the poem is one I’ve developing from a thought, rather than something I’m hearing, I’ll approach it through further exploration. Sometimes I’ll write more, just to see what happens; other times I’ll draw. Sketching out a poem allows me to see the lines interacting visually with each other.
Q: If you were to choose an artist–from any period–to paint your landscapes, who would that be, and why?
A: Remedios Varo’s sublime mix of detail and myth intrigues me. Her ability to capture an inner terrain and concretely impose that on the outer landscape is apt magic.
Q: Who or what are you reading now?
A: “The Gorgeous Nothings” reveals envelopes that Emily Dickinson wrote poems on. They have made me more sensitive to what it actually is that we write on. So, surfaces intrigue me, as well as locations of writing. As a child, I mostly wrote in a shallow lip of the woods, sitting on the mossy surface of a fallen oak, surrounded by Norway pines, hidden by maples because writing was not a sanctioned activity for the household. Now, I don’t have to escape to the protection of the forest, so I mostly write sitting inside. The question of where people write and what they write on is one I’ll be exploring.
Q: Some might say that the time of nature poetry had ended–your poems celebrate the natural world, but there is steel in their endings. How does this contemporary poetry with the “deviled heart” find new inspiration in the natural world?
A: Sometimes we write out our outer landscapes, sometimes our inner ones, when all the while our world is perhaps writing on us. We all are surfaces. Nature poetry has not ended because the human race has not ended. Despite past transgressions, nature is still hosting us, as a species. Connecting to the natural world is paramount for us as artists, as survivors, as humans. Like all relationships, our relationship with nature evolves, continually transforming itself (and ourselves). Whether ignored or explored, we are a part of nature; it is a relationship we ignore at our own peril.

4 I would order {my} cause before him, and fill my mouth with arguments.

8 Behold, I go forward, but he {is} not {there}; and backward, but I cannot perceive him:
9 On the left hand, where he doth work, but I cannot behold {him}: he hideth himself on the right hand, that I cannot see {him}:
10 But he knoweth the way that I take: {when} he hath tried me, I shall come forth as gold. {that...: Heb. that is with me}
12 Neither have I gone back from the commandment of his lips; I have esteemed the words of his mouth more than my necessary {food}. {esteemed: Heb. hid, or, laid up} {my...: or, my appointed portion}
13 But he {is} in one {mind}, and who can turn him? and {what} his soul desireth, even {that} he doeth.
14 For he performeth {the thing that is} appointed for me: and many such {things are} with him.
17 Because I was not cut off before the darkness, {neither} hath he covered the darkness from my face.

Brother, can you spare a charge? ChargeBite goes indiegogo
Surely no white night can end well with a phone that isn't working. So what do you do? Find an outlet and hope you've brought an adapter? That's so 2009 of you.
Instead, turn to a friend. With ChargeBite, you transform your phone from a meek and mild Xander into a merciless power-thirsty Vampire (before-he-got-boring) Spike. Just hook your iPhone to a couple of "volunteer" phones; it will begin to leech power from the donors, and soon (for variable levels of "soon"), you'll be able to call again.
The indiegogo site says that with two powered devices, your iPhone charges as fast as if it was attached to a USB port, or in about an hour or two.
We can only imagine the awkward conversations as you wait for your phone to charge while not one, but two "volunteers" impatiently sip their lattes and wonder if they'll ever get to work on time. There's also that embarrassing feeling when you leave fully charged up, knowing that both of those lovely people now have to find someone else to suck power from.
ChargeBite is the first "social" charger. Instead of bringing a small plug, ChargeBite truly allows you depend on the kindness and amperage of strangers. After all, sharing phones is gross, but sharing current, well, that's not quite as gross.
By the way, as of publication time ChargeBite has just 4 backers for a total of $80 ... but there are 47 days left in the campaign to get the $45,000 needed for it to go into production.

Rex issues challenge to Jets' O-line
FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- Trying to guard against a letdown after an emotional win over the Dallas Cowboys, New York Jets coach Rex Ryan challenged his players -- the offensive line, in particular -- during Wednesday's team meeting.
Ryan reminded them of their last game against the Jacksonville Jaguars, a 24-22 loss in 2009, claiming they were physically dominated -- a case of the bullies getting bullied. According to players, he called out the line, which also played poorly in the season opener.
It's rare for Ryan to pick on the offensive line, for years the strength of the team, but it was his way of sending an urgent message for the upcoming game against the Jaguars. Apparently, it was received.
"This," quarterback Mark Sanchez said, "is a must-win."
This is what coaches do when they're trying to maintain their team's edge. But instead of embellishing a game from two years ago -- it wasn't nearly as lopsided as Ryan made it sound -- he could've simply brought up last season's AFC Championship Game.
The letdown of all letdowns.
The Jets were emotionally wiped out after their monumental upset of the New England Patriots, and they played a brutal first half against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Guard Matt Slauson admitted he thought about that game in the immediate aftermath of the the red-white-and-blue victory over the Cowboys on the 10th anniversary of 9-11.
"I thought to myself, 'Man, we better not let this get to us like the Patriots game did last year,'" Slauson said. "The majority of our guys were here for that, so they know the feeling of a letdown. I don't think our guys are going to make the same mistake twice."
Slauson said there was nary a mention of Sunday night in the locker room, insisting the focus had shifted to the Jaguars, who won their opener over the Tennessee Titans, 16-14.
Ryan acknowledged that beating the Cowboys, in what he called the most pressure-filled game of his coaching career, was "very emotional." He doesn't anticipate a hangover, but it's obviously a concern because he made an issue of it during his team meeting.
Spoiler alert: Ryan said he's planning to show the team lowlights from the '09 game.
"We pride ourselves on being a physical football team
and they handed it to us," he said of the Jaguars, a power-running team that also defends the run very well. "They imposed their will on us.
So we'll let the video do most of the talking."
Ryan made it sound like the 45-3 loss to the Patriots, but it actually wasn't that bad. They lost because the defense couldn't make a big stop and because Sanchez threw two interceptions and was so frazzled that, instead of answering questions from reporters after the game, he read from a prepared statement -- a rookie mistake, he now admits.
In reality, the Jets weren't outrushed by much, 139-110, but it left a bitter taste for Ryan. That explains why, in the team meeting, he got after the offensive line. It hit home because all five starters are holdovers from the '09 team, although Slauson and right tackle Wayne Hunter were backups at the time.
"He definitely called out the offensive line," Slauson said. "He said, 'This cannot happen again.'"
Coachspeak aside, the game is important because it's an AFC game, and the Jets know the importance of a good conference record. They were 9-3 last season, tied for second-best in the AFC -- and that provided a cushion for playoff tiebreakers.
It's also a home game and the Jets, perennially mediocre at home, are trying to change that.
"We can't lose at home. We can't," Sanchez said. "We want to get a home playoff game. You can't get a home playoff game if you keep dropping games at home. It just doesn't work. This is huge for us."

Someone who raises a flag to ask the same question again and again. Ironically, they never remember the answers or learn to think for themselves. They just keep asking tons of questions for every little thing.
Damn. Holly is flagging me down for help again. She is like six flags today.

Tips on Choosing Acne Antibiotics For Clear Skin
Acne has several consequences. Heredity, hormones, diet, as well as stress have all been associated with pimples. People with persistent acne can not manage their genetics, but they can discover how to manage pressure, maintain a healthy diet and (for women) use birth control to help stabilize the hormonal fluctuations that can cause acne breakouts. People with acne often face their zits using over-the-counter acne solutions. These products are effective depending on the type and severity of acne. If over-the-counter products and basic lifestyle changes fail to control acne, a skin doctor should be used. Dermatologists are specialized in skin disorders and can help people with acne by prescribing topical or oral antibiotics or other acne medications. This article focuses on antibiotics against acne.
What antibiotics for acne can do for you
The skin is infected with pimples when the high production of hormones creates oil that clogs the pores. The bacteria accumulate in the pore, causing an acne pimple, a white dot or a blackhead. Antibiotics for acne can help control it. The definition of the antibiotic means that a drug is used to kill a microorganism. Antibiotics fight acne. Some treatments that work for the treatment of acne are prescribed with oral or topical remedies. The dangers of antibiotics are those of overconsumption that makes the body resistant to antibiotics in general and has proven difficult in treating other infections over time.
Types of Oral and Topical Antibiotics
These are the most common prescribed oral antibiotics for acne: tetracycline, erythromycin and monocycline. Tetracycline is the most used antibiotic against acne. It quickly slows acne lesions. Erythromycin is the second most prescribed antibiotic. It causes swelling of your infections. Pregnant women can even take this medicine.
Topical antibiotics work when they are applied to the skin and can act quickly when acne breaks out. Topical antibiotic creams and gels keep pores free of bacteria and help dry out stains while reducing residual discoloration. Here are the most common topical acne antibiotics: clindamycin lotion, topical tetracycline and erythromycin and metronidazole. Non-antibiotic acne treatments such as Avita, Retin-A, Differin gel, benzoyl peroxide, salicylic acid and vitamin A derivatives. These are also effective in healing acne.
Important information about a dermatologist
To get the best treatment for your acne, you will need to consult a dermatologist. At the first appointment with your doctor, a comprehensive physical assessment and medical history will be done to determine which acne treatment solution best meets your needs. Depending on the severity of the acne, your skin doctor may start with topical or oral antibiotics. If antibiotics do not help reduce acne after several months, a better acne medication such as Accutane can be prescribed. Of course you want to consult your doctor about the advantages and disadvantages of this treatment.

The Weather....and my random thoughts...
I just finished pulling in our pots and my daughter's toys that were in the backyard. The weather today is pretty {yucky} and although there is no hurricane around the winds are still pretty strong. It reminded me of a few years back when we did get hit by a hurricane and we did sit in our little apartment for a week without power and looking at those cans of tuna trying to figure out how to "cook" a new recipe along with the vienna sausages we had.
Going through the experience of a hurricane is pretty intense. In my case, I was actually attending school in Tampa and the hurricane was due to "land" in Tampa. My husband told me to get a hotel room and honker down...but I drove like a maniac after my last class and made it back to Fort Lauderdale (yup...I was commuting 4 hours to attend school). Turns out the hurricane changed paths and landed in Fort Lauderdale...I watched the news until the power went out and there was the eye of the storm which looked to be pointed right over my apartment.
I had panicked and had asked my husband to go to the grocery store on his way home but went ahead and went myself as well. Although it looked like we had enough supplies I ventured out one more time but the only stores open were gas station stores. We had a neighbor that was busy taking care of putting up the hurricane shutters because management refused to. It turns out that after they had passed inspection they simply through all of the hurricane panels in a pile and then allotted them to the different apts...most apartments did not have the appropriate panels and we did not know until it was too late. Our particular apartment was a panel short. I ran out to purchase supplies for this neighbor who I had never met until this point...he was the only one with a ladder because again management said it was a liability to lend ladders out. He had gone to his job site and took it upon himself to help. I took it upon myself to make sure he had supplies like Gatorade and the amazing cans of tuna...
After the storm, there was such a peace and quiet and destruction. It was surreal. The apartment next to us with windows blown out while ours was in one piece....I remember the panic of everyone in the grocery stores and the lines at the gas stations afterwards. I took things in stride but now that I have a little girl who is depending on me to keep her safe I am looking at my hurricane plans. Do I have enough for her if the tropical storms turn into a hurricane? The thought of going grocery shopping with very anxious people after a storm is announced is not something I want to do with a 3 year old....and how do I explain locking up my house with the hurricane shutters....she is going through a phase in which she is so scared of the dark and sleeps with a flash light and night light.
I KNOW how lucky I am to have a roof over my child's head and the ability to worry about what types of food to purchase for her in case of a hurricane rather then what will I feed my child tonight...but it does not make my concerns any less for her and this darn weather we are having....any thoughts...any tips??

Chapter 471 – Kill Without Mercy!
Almighty Sword Domain
Yang Ye naturally had to flee. He was up against than 10 Exalt Realm experts, and most of them were at the fifth rank of the Exalt Realm or above. Moreover, they were all assassins. So, did he have any other choice? Yang Ye didn’t have to guess to know that it was definitely Luo Jun who dispatched these assassins, but he hadn’t imagined that the An Clan would actually participate as well.
Did he feel hatred?
He did in the very beginning. After all, there were some feelings between him An Biru. So, he naturally felt uncomfortable when she assisted Luo Jun to kill him and dispatched assassins for his head. However, he quickly got over it. An Biru couldn’t be blamed for her actions because it was him, Yang Ye, who said that they would be enemies when they met next!
Since they were enemies, then wasn’t it very normal for her to want him dead?
This incident caused that bit of feelings he had for An Biru to vanish from his heart. Moreover, he clearly understood that they were enemies now!
The Sword Control Technique enhanced by the Ninth Hell Swordwings and a Strides Talisman allowed Yang Ye’s speed to arrive at an extremely terrifying extent. So, those Exalt Realm assassins were still unable to catch up to him even if they tore space apart. Of course, Yang Ye hadn’t lost them completely because he sensed them not too far behind him.
However, he knew that they would catch up, sooner or later, if they continued for a long. If he didn’t possess extreme-grade energy stones to incessantly recover his profound energy, then they would have caught up to him a very long time ago. Even then, he was unable to persist for long. After all, the gap between their cultivations was too huge, and extreme-grade energy stones weren’t all-powerful treasures!
After pondering deeply for a moment, Yang Ye glanced at Lu Jianyao who laid in his embrace and spoke in a low voice. “How far are we from the Ocean of Anarchy?”
He originally had no intention of saving her. After all, he wasn’t even able to protect himself. However, he had no choice but to save her when he thought of her identity. He was still in cooperation with the City Governor’s Estate, so if he were to refuse to save her and allowed them to fall into the enemy’s hands, then it might really push the City Governor’s Estate to Luo Jun’s side.
So, this woman absolutely couldn’t fall into the hands of the enemy!
At this moment, Lu Jianyao was still slightly stunned. Never had she imagined that while everything seemed to be fine and fell, those two uncles of hers would have perished in the blink of an eye. Moreover, they were even being pursued by a group of Exalt Realm assassins.
“It’ll take half a day more based on your current speed!” said Lu Jianyao.
“Half a day?” Yang Ye frowned because he couldn’t hold on for half a day of time. He felt that their pursuers were getting closer and closer. Based on the current circumstances, they would catch up within two hours, at most.
Right at this moment, Lu Jianyao suddenly said, “Flee on your own!”
Yang Ye was stunned and glanced at her with slight surprise. She said, “They won’t kill me, and they’ll use me to threaten my father instead. So, I won’t die. But if we flee together, then both of us will die.”
“You’re absolutely right, but have you thought about how your father would fall under the control of another because of that? In other words, the City Governor’s Estate will become a slave in someone else’s hands! At that time, do you think Luo Jun would let you go? He wouldn’t. He will keep you under even stricter watch and use you to threaten your father. In other words, you’ll be a prisoner for eternity, and your father would become someone else’s goon because of you. Understand?” said Yang Ye.
Lu Jianyao fell silent for a short while before she raised her head to glance at Yang Ye before she said, “You only saved me because you’re afraid the City Governor’s Estate would side with Luo Jun, right?”
Yang Ye said indifferently, “Would you believe me if I said that I did it because I liked you?”
Lu Jianyao glanced at him, and then she fell silent.
An hour later, the gap between them was growing closer and closer while Yang Ye’s brows were knit together even more tightly. Presently, he’d brought his speed up to its limits, but he was still unable to struggle free of their pursuit. This made him feel very helpless. His cultivation was too low in the end. If he was at the Exalt Realm, then not to mention escaping their pursuit, it was even possible for him to annihilate them!
However, he was only a Spirit Realm profounder right now. So while he possessed numerous Dao Artifacts, he wasn’t able to fully utilize their might!
He wished he could utilize that secret technique again, but the Sword Spirit didn’t allow it. Because she said that he wouldn’t just lose a few levels of cultivation if he utilized it again. It was very likely to cause him to be unable to step foot into the Monarch Realm for eternity over even perish on the spot!
Every single secret technique has its side effects, and this secret technique from the Sword Spirit was no exception!
So, Yang Ye didn’t dare utilize it rashly unless he arrived at a moment of life and death. Even though he felt that the Sword Spirit might be just scaring him, he didn’t want to bet with his future on the line.
Lu Jianyao gazed at Yang Ye while lying in his arms. Yang Ye couldn’t be said to be handsome, but it was undeniable that he was very attractive. Or it should be said that strong men were attractive. Yang Ye was merely at the Spirit Realm yet could kill Exalt Realm experts, and he could even escape from 10 Exalt Realm assassins!
Moreover, Yang Ye who was merely a Spirit Realm profounder displayed no fear when facing 10 Exalt Realm experts. Just this courage alone was something that very few Spirit Realm profounders could compare to. As for her, she wasn’t able to accomplish it. Because she was very clearly aware of the gap between the Exalt Realm and Spirit Realm. It was exactly the reason why she felt slight admiration towards Yang Ye right now.
However, Yang Ye was truly a bit too rude. Because while she didn’t know if Yang Ye had done it on purpose or not, Yang Ye’s hands were on her butt right now. She’d struggled to move her body a few times, but it merely made Yang Ye hold her even more tightly. Meanwhile, she wanted to let him know about it, but she was truly unable to bring herself to say it. So, she had no choice but to leave herself at Yang Ye’s mercy!
Right at this moment, Yang Ye was suddenly delighted because he saw a mountain range in the distance. He was like a moving target in the air, and it was truly too easy for them to find him like this. However, if he were to enter a dense forest, then it wouldn’t be so easy for them to capture him once he utilized the tiny vortex to conceal his aura. It was even to the extent that he could kill them instead!
He acted as soon as he thought of this. Yang Ye’s figure flashed and transformed into a ray of light that shot into the mountain range.
As soon as he descended to the ground, Yang Ye’s figure flashed and vanished on the spot.
10 black clothed figures arrived at the same spot Yang Ye stood on just now in less than 10 breaths of time after he vanished from there.
One of them said, “Let’s split up!”
Hong suddenly said, “No!”
The other black clothed figures gazed at Hong with a puzzled expression.
Hong said, “He’s very strong and able to conceal his aura. It’s very likely that we would provide him an opportunity to take advantage of if we were to split up!” In the end, she was clearly aware of Yang Ye’s ability. After all, she’d been with him for a period of time, and that was exactly the reason why Hong didn’t dare underestimate him. Because Yang Ye’s strength was really sufficient to kill Exalt Realm experts!
“An opportunity to take advantage of?” One of the black clothed figures laughed coldly and said, “He’s just a Spirit Realm profounder. Even though he’s much stronger than an ordinary Spirit Realm profounder and possesses a speed that isn’t inferior to Exalt Realm experts, aren’t you speaking too highly of him and looking down on us by saying that he can kill us?!”
All of them were assassins, and they were Exalt Realm assassins. So, they felt that it was an insult to say that a Spirit Realm profounder could kill them instead! That was the reason why the black clothed figure’s tone had become cold and blunt as he finished speaking.
Hong frowned, and she felt quite helpless in her heart. There were 10 assassins here. 5 of them were from the An Clan, but the other five had been dispatched by Luo Jun and didn’t take orders from her at all.
Hong still wanted to say something, but the other five Exalt Realm assassins had vanished on the spot and dispersed towards the surroundings.
Hong shook her head when she saw this, and then she said, “We’ll stay together. If we encounter Yang Ye….” Hong hesitated for a moment when she spoke up to here, and then she said, “Don’t hold back and kill him without mercy!”

25 Telling Talking Points From John Chambers
If you look at the breadth and depth ranging from such issues as collaboration, it will drive a decade of productivity. The first time I've ever heard [it] at the World Economic Forum, with top economists from Europe, the U.S. and China, we talked about GDP growth for the next three to five years and beyond, and I asked about productivity and expected a candid answer of one to one-and-a-half percent, which is what they always say, 'You can't drive faster than that.'
All of them agreed -- all of them agreed -- that we were in for a decade of productivity growth that was probably two to three percent or more. When I asked them what's going to cause that, they said, 'What you're doing, John.'

Double\stranded RNA interference (dsRNAi) represents a primary means of anti\viral defense
Double\stranded RNA interference (dsRNAi) represents a primary means of anti\viral defense in plants, worms, and insects, yet appears mostly supplanted by?the protein\based interferon (IFN) response in vertebrates such as mammals. dsRNA sensing and IFN production are preserved but where no ISG induction can occur. Thus, it is likely that this action of one or more ISGs inhibit dsRNAi. This would be Duloxetine cost consistent with previous findings showing that triggering an anti\viral response using dsRNA\like agonists inhibits RISC activity via poly\ADP ribosylation (Seo (2016) propose that anti\viral functions for RNAi may be masked by interferon\stimulated genes (reddish line). In addition to demonstrating that unmasked dsRNAi is usually Dicer and Ago dependent, Maillard (2016) also observe that dsRNAi can productively inhibit computer virus in MAVS deficient cells. By introducing dsRNA of a reporter computer virus into cells prior to contamination, the authors observe a decrease in?subsequent virus replication. Such Duloxetine cost a vaccination response suggests that dsRNAi can provide sequence\specific protection from incoming computer virus, and yet, no anti\viral dsRNAi was observed with infection alone. This failure to achieve anti\viral dsRNAi indicates that dsRNA sensing of viral replication intermediates do not feed into Dicer processing. This might be due to several virus\initiated possibilities: from previously Duloxetine cost mentioned VSR activity to replication schemes that shield dsRNA intermediates in compartments inaccessible for sensing. Perhaps the most pressing question centers on cell determinants that favor anti\viral RNAi over the IFN response. RNAi is active in ESCs and potentially other types of undifferentiated cells, in which the IFN response is severely attenuated (Burke em et?al /em , 1978), similar to the cells lacking the IFN receptor used by the authors. Human ESCs display reduced expression of genes involved in the dsRNA response pathways, including pathogen recognition receptors (PRRs) that lead to IFN induction such as OAS1, PKR, MDA5, TLR3, and others. Some proteins such Duloxetine cost as PKR and RIG\I are expressed in ESCs, but fail to respond to dsRNA (Chen em et?al /em , 2010). As ESCs display attenuated cytoplasmic dsRNA sensing, similar to the cells lacking MAVS, this may suggest that anti\viral RNAi may only happen naturally in this context. Why might dsRNAi be preferred over IFN in undifferentiated cells? There are several interesting possibilities: (i) pluripotent cells undergo rapid cell division Duloxetine cost and may mute the IFN response to avoid its antiproliferative effects (Hertzog em et?al /em , 1994); (ii) interferon has been shown to stimulate differentiation, suggesting that pluripotent cells may inhibit its expression as a means of maintaining potency (Hertzog em et?al /em , 1994); (iii) triggers of the IFN response (i.e., cytoplasmic dsRNA) are readily produced in pluripotent cells (Tam em et?al /em , 2008) and the suppression of the IFN response prevents terminal sacrifice of the lineage; (iv) it might be possible that RNAi serves as a more efficient defense against transposons than the IFN response; (v) finally, previous studies have shown that components of the endogenous small RNA processing machinery may have important functions in Rabbit polyclonal to TOP2B the maintenance of stem cell properties (Qi em et?al /em , 2009). Clearly, future studies are in store for this present but mostly silent RNA\based immune system.

Cross Compiling Orangepizero OS Image
There are some images from the manufacturer for the low cost little board orangepizero is available but i liked the dietpi OS because it is lightweight and they provided a tasksel like tool to easily install other application software and configure those.
But at present, the support of dietpi for orangepizero has been stopped. However the team of dietpi are not irresponsible cause they have provided a shell script to convert/cross compile any debian or raspbian installation into the dietpi OS for orangepizero. Sounds promising, lets try it and see how far we can go.
At first, install virtualbox, Then download netinstall image of debian from debian website.
Then create a virtual machine with necessary resources, Then select a your downloaded debian iso image as the sata drive to boot from that and install it.
Then start the machine and install debian. While installing, deselect desktop environment and print server option by selecting menu and a press of spacebar. This was done to ensure the os is kept as light as possible.
After installation finished and reboted, issue the following command to install ssh.
apt install openssh-server openssh-client
Then shutdown the machine, change network settings as bridged and select the interface your computer is connected to the internet.
Start the virtual machine again. after login as root, aply following command:
apt install openssh-server openssh-client
ssh-keygen -A
systemctl start sshd
ip a
Then a output like the image above will shown. in my case, the ip of the machine is Lets connect to the machine using putty like following:
Then login as root using following command:
su root
Then apply the following command to install prerequisites of diet pi script:
apt-get update; apt-get install -y systemd-sysv ca-certificates sudo wget locales --reinstall
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/sbin
Download dietpi script using the following command:
wget -O
Make the script executable and run it:
chmod +x
Then i’ve did the following:
1. Git branch: master selected
2. Your name : Md. Khairul Hasan
3. An url :
4. Device: Orange Pi Zero (H2+)
5. I require wifi functionality
6. Buster stable release
After this message “Completed, disk can now be saved to .img for later use, or, reboot system to start first run of DietPi.” appears, the preparation of dietpi has been finished.
Now shut down the virtual machine, dont reboot. The .vdi image of the virtual box needs to be converted into a .img file to write on a memory card and use it on the orangepiero. I’ve issued the following command to windows command prompt to convert the image.
D:\Vbox\deb>pushd "C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox"
C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox>VBoxManage.exe clonehd "D:\Vbox\deb\deb.vdi" "D:\Vbox\deb.img" --format RAW

Course Design Ideas
In our impression, VR technology is mostly used in the entertainment field, and now this technology has successfully entered the field of education, providing real-life scenario-assisted teaching for students' teaching. In the field of education, there is still a lot of room for development.
According to the practical experience of developed regions, VR technology can combine the real social scenes to greatly improve the social adaptability of students with intellectual disabilities. It can combine rehabilitation training such as art therapy and physical therapy to enhance students' attention, participation, and social development. We are looking forward to VR technology in the field of education, and help the generation of mechanics.
VR Special Education Training System
• MACY Classroom-Special Education
• Based on virtual reality technology, the virtual simulation laboratory system provides a variety of occupational therapy practices in combination with professional and practical scenarios. It can provide high-quality contextual simulation for professional learning in special children's education and rehabilitation, and can reproduce actual scenes. To provide vivid and realistic emotional materials for children's rehabilitation and special education, to help students solve the key points and difficulties of “clinical” practical learning; and to visually reproduce various hypotheses in the special children's education and rehabilitation process, and visually observe hypotheses The results or effects produced can effectively implement diversified learning, cultivate students' practical ability and innovative ability, and greatly improve the learning efficiency and learning effect of children's rehabilitation and special education.
At the same time, the experience viewer's vision can be projected on the screen for teachers and classmates to watch and discuss, give feedback to the experience in time, let them understand their own strengths and weaknesses, and give other students a demonstration. The system contains eye tracking function, which provides rich eye movement data, such as hotspot map, trajectory map and various eye movement indicators, providing information foundation for teachers and students' innovative experiments and research projects.
VR has great potential for the treatment of post-traumatic stress disorder and post-surgical athletic ability recovery. For patients with retinitis pigmentosa, the flickering picture in VR can be shown to reduce visual impairment.
Features of VR Special Education
The use of virtual reality technology to achieve training in the field of occupational therapy in special education, improve the safety of the practice environment, reduce the cost of teaching, and can practice repeatedly and a variety of hypothetical situations to improve the quality of teaching.
MACY Classroom-Special Education
Virtual reality scenes set up according to the scenes of special children's daily life contact, and can be virtualized for various assumptions in the special children's education and rehabilitation process. The content of the scene meets the professional needs of special children's education and rehabilitation.
The scene is divided into three sections: family, community, and school, to guide students in homework treatment.
MACY Classroom-Special Education
By means of practice, theory into practice, knowledge into skills. In the realistic scene, hands-on experience, master the practical and special child training skills, and grow into a qualified special education professional talent who has rich theoretical knowledge of special education and strong practical ability.
MACY Classroom-Special Education
Through practical means, we have mastered a wealth of experience in occupational therapy, laying a good foundation for the implementation of first-line rehabilitation teaching in the future. Effectively design a set of activities related to daily life, production labor, casual games and social interactions according to the conditions of special children and implement training to improve their barrier functions, and adapt to social life both physically and psychologically. Self-reliance and self-reliance, at the same time able to master vocational skills and return to society.

Why Not Create a Google Gaming OS?
Yesterday's announcement that Google had partnered with several cell phone companies and cell carriers to create a new Linux-based operating system (OS) that would most likely compete against Apple's iPhone came as a shock as many predicted that the fabled "Gphone" from Google was simply more likely.
Google's push is an interesting one. Since most companies in the competitive cell phone industry normally refuse to get along and since efforts to create a unified cell phone OS under Symbian never really dominated the cell phone market, it took Google to level the playing field.
Google's impossible task of getting a consortium of cell phone companies now complete, can the search giant now help create a one-console future?

The story is too old to be commented.
bilal3967d ago
when it comes to web, google is microsoft's worst nightmare.....often big companies are not good news for public (due to monopolies) ....but the best thing about google is everything they do is free and it cannot be overstated that what they do is really really innovative.. example:
DrPirate3967d ago
I'd rather want Valve to do a SteamOS.
Cat3967d ago
can google create a one-console future? i'd just as soon ask them to fabricate a utopia. and then it can descend into chaos. and then they've created Bioshock. so perhaps not an OS, but at least a game. :P

If you are using your cell to provide Internet to your computer via a Hotspot. Then yes that counts as data usage from your plan.

You'll probably burn through data a lot faster though, since computer software assumes that you have unlimited data access through WiFi or LAN cable.

Terrain Situation Awareness
No Rating
Function Overview
TSA is a function that supports DJI Pilot 2 to display the aircraft/RC info on the map by using the device coordinate information which is sent by Server end. Both the web end and DJI Pilot 2 end will have all device info under the same workspace. It can help the communication and info sharing between all devices/Pilot2/teammates.
For example, in the following figure, Pilot A, Pilot B, Dock A, Dock B, Human, and other devices have pushed their information to the server through API. Once the server end receives all information, it will summarize it and push it to different DJI Pilot 2 through WebSocket, then Pilot A and Pilot B will have all info displayed in their APP.

Ocean's color affects hurricane paths
It turns out that the formation of typhoons -- as hurricanes are known in the region -- is heavily mediated by the presence of chlorophyll, a green pigment that helps the tiny single-celled organisms known as phytoplankton convert sunlight into food for the rest of the marine ecosystem. Chlorophyll contributes to the ocean's color.
"We think of the oceans as blue, but the oceans aren't really blue, they're actually a sort of greenish color," said Anand Gnanadesikan, a researcher with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory in Princeton, New Jersey. "The fact that [the oceans] are not blue has a [direct] impacton the distribution of tropical cyclones."
In the study, to be published in an upcoming issue of Geophysical Research Letters, a journal of the American Geophysical Union, Gnanadesikan's team describes how a drop in chlorophyll concentration, and the corresponding reduction in ocean color, could cause a decrease in the formation of hurricanes in the color-depleted zone. Although the study looks at the effects of a simulated drop in the phytoplankton population (and therefore in the ocean's green tint), recently-published research argued that global phytoplankton populations have been steadily declining over the last century.
Gnanadesikan compared hurricane formation rates in a computer model under two scenarios. For the first, he modeled real conditions using chlorophyll concentrations in the North Pacific observed by satellites. He then compared that to a scenario where the chlorophyll concentration in parts ofthe North Pacific Subtropical Gyre -- a large, clockwise-circulation pattern encompassing most of the North Pacific -- was set to zero.
A complete absence of chlorophyll in parts of the ocean would be a drastic change, Gnanadesikanadmits. Yet, its potential impact is still important to consider, he maintains. The northern Pacific gyre that he studied is already the "biological desert of the ocean," he said. So the surprise, then, is that "even in this region that is apparently clear, biologically-mediated heating is important."

Is musical talent rooted in genes?
Practice doesn't always make perfect when it comes to becoming the next Mozart, a new study suggests. Researchers compared pairs of identical twins, and found that no matter how hard one twin had practiced up until that point in their life, the other twin who had practiced much less still had an equal level of ability in certain musical skills.
This may be because some aspects of musical talent are built into the genes, the researchers said.
"The idea that an externally imposed practice regime can and will lead to expertise seems to be wrong," said study researcher Miriam Mosey, a neuroscientist at the Karolinska Institute in Sweden. "But innate ability should also not be seen in a deterministic way, as, naturally, practice will (almost) always lead to an increase in ability (but not necessarily to high-level expertise)," she said in an email to Live Science. [Seeing Double: 8 Fascinating Facts About Twins]
Mosey and her colleagues looked at the DNA of 1,211 pairs of adult identical twins, who share almost 100 percent of their genes, and 1,358 pairs of fraternal twins, who share an average of 50 percent of their genes. Those who played a musical instrument or sang reported how many years they practiced, and for how many hours a week, at different ages over their lives.
Mosey then tested the participants' musical abilities to see if practice had an effect on ability. She looked at how well people could detect differences in pitch, distinguish different melodies and recognize different rhythms.
Like most people, Mosey assumed that those who put in more practice time would earn higher scores on their ability than those who practiced less, she said. But when she compared lifetime practice scores with musical abilities between identical twins, Mosey found no relationship between the amount of practice time and her measure of musical ability.
Two twins could have an equal level of musical ability, no matter how much more one twin practiced compared with the other, the researchers found. In one case, a twin practiced 20,228 hours more than his twin, but still had the same musical ability as the other twin.
The researchers concluded that genetics or perhaps other factors, such as environmental influences play a larger role than practice in certain aspects of musical talent such as recognizing pitch and rhythms.
Mosey and her colleagues made another interesting finding: Genes may determine a person's motivation to practice. The majority of participants who reported practicing a lot also shared a high percentage of the same genes. "The association between practice and skill was largely due to the same genes, suggesting that practice will not necessarily make you perfect, but it certainly will enhance your skills," Mosey said.
But the findings certainly do not mean students should be discouraged from practicing. "Clearly, practice will increase many skills necessary for playing an instrument (e.g., handling of the instrument, fine motor skills etc.), and is necessary to become a good player," Mosey said.
The study was published July 30 in the journal Psychological Science.

[cancer] Chemotherapy session 1, day 1 - FOLFIRI - Lakeshore

Yesterday my parents picked me up at 8 am. We went over to the infusion center. There we met up with [info]tillyane, [info]mlerules and H—.
The usual intake procedures happened, my chest port was accessed, then we sat around an hour or so while they checked my bloodwork and prepped my chemo course. Finally they came around and did the de-accession training for Sunday's at-home de-access. That was a little less organized than last time, and I had to prompt my nurse for several things such as the crucial printed checklist.
The drug infusions went as expected. Irinotecan (the core ingredient in FOLFIRI) doesn't fry my brain quite the way Oxaliplatin (the core ingredient in FOLFOX) did. But ZOMG the fatigue.
Getting out of there took a while because my pharmaceutical exit counseling was delayed, and there was some confusion about which scrips had already been written, generating an unnecessary trip to my pharmacy on the way home. Not to mention which Friday afternoon traffic was unusually toxic.
Still we go back, to a Chinese meal procured by Mom and Dad. They went on home afterwards, while [info]mlerules stayed to be caregiver on duty this weekend.
It went okay at first.
I started feeling rounds of nausea after a couple of hours. I rode out the first few with some light meditation, but eventually it caught up with me and I lost everything I'd eaten. That repeated twice more in the evening. Finally I had a very small amount of fruit and some ginger ale, and went to sleep. Mind you, I got through six months of FOLFOX without throwing up once. One day on FOLFIRI, and I'm hurling multiple times.
This was unexpected, because FOLFIRI isn't supposed to be any more nausea-inducing than FOLFOX. Rather, it's supposed to have more violent lower GI effects. However, I've been taking Vicodin lately for my chest port surgery pain, and Vicodin is an opiate. We know from prior experience that opiates are like a concrete enema for me. I have cleared my lower GI in almost forty-eight hours, and I'm not sure the lack of bowel movements isn't in part stimulating the nausea, as the upper GI has nowhere to send the input.
Meanwhile, given the violent effects of FOLFIRI, I'm quite way of taking a stool softener or a laxative for fear of overstimulating the result. This is such a lousy tightrope.
Nothing at either end this morning, though I've eaten a small additional amount of fruit and a poached egg, and experienced another round of controlled nausea. We shall see. Mostly I keep spacing out and falling asleep. Which is probably okay, too.
This is only the beginning.

Have you tried Percocet? It affects me differently from Vicodin -- maybe it wouldn't plug you up so badly? Of course, it's another opiate.
I hope things ease up for you, and that you can sleep through (and forget) the worst of it.

Eating to Reduce Post-Workout Soreness
Workout Drink
During your peak preseason training, you might be performing high-impact exercises and workouts twice a day, leaving your body feeling fatigued and sore. During these weeks, your body will suffer from the wear and tear of intense, everyday workouts, thwarting your best performance.
What you eat before during and after workouts can greatly reduce post-workout soreness. By eating correctly, you'll decrease the muscle degradation caused by intense exercise and maximize post-workout muscle repair and rebuilding. Eating the right foods can also decrease inflammation, another source of muscle soreness.
Before Your Workout
Make sure to have adequate carbohydrates and protein to top off your energy stores. The best pre-workout meals have carbohydrates and some protein to promote greater muscular endurance, provide energy and help speed recovery. Post-workout soreness can also be caused by dehydration and lack of electrolytes, so start your workout hydrated by drinking at least 20 ounces of water in the hour before you train.
During Your Workout
If you are working out for an hour or more, consume a high-glycemic carbohydrate source, such as a sports drink or gel, to provide electrolytes and glucose. Adding protein can further minimize muscle tissue damage. Again, stay properly hydrated, drinking at least 14 to 16 ounces of water for each active hour.
Following a Workout
The 45-minute window following an intense workout is when your body is most sensitive to insulin, which helps build muscle. A common myth says that protein is most important post-workout, but you also need carbohydrates to help produce insulin, drive muscle building and reduce post-workout soreness. The current recommendation is a ratio of 2:1 carbohydrate to protein following strength workouts and 4:1 after endurance workouts. Aim for higher-glycemic carbs, like sports drinks, granola bars, cereal or crackers. They are digested faster and are replete with muscle and liver glycogen.
The Power of Antioxidants
Foods rich in antioxidants also help reduce inflammation and decrease muscle soreness. Various studies have shown the positive effects on exercice recovery of tart cherries due to their high antioxidant properties. Ginger and turmeric are other foods high in antioxidants.
Practice your pre/post-workout fueling routines and tweak them as necessary. Be comfortable with your fueling choices. Also, remember to consult with a health professional if you feel your soreness might be signaling an injury.
Make sure to check out the STACK Post-Workout Nutrition Guide for further information.

1. Re: me again
Not surfing waves, not big, not a lot of them. There's a pier downtown, not much for beaches there. St.Pete Beach is on barrier island. No seawall. Beach is mostly flat with some dunes. No boardwalks on St. Pete Beach. No boardwalks really like in CA, Long Island or Chicago. Just nice sandy beach and warm gentle waves.

Boeing Starliner capsule returns to Earth, capping key uncrewed test mission
• Steve Gorman and Joey Roulette, Reuters
Published: 2022-05-26 10:43:24 BdST
Boeing's CST-100 Starliner capsule launches aboard a United Launch Alliance Atlas 5 rocket on a second uncrewed test flight to the International Space Station, at Cape Canaveral, Florida, US May 19, 2022. Reuters
Boeing Co's Starliner astronaut capsule returned from the International Space Station and landed in New Mexico on Wednesday, capping a high-stakes test flight as NASA's next vehicle for carrying humans to orbit.
Less than a week after its launch from the Cape Canaveral US Space Force Base in Florida, the CST-100 Starliner capsule plunged through Earth's atmosphere Wednesday evening ahead of a parachute-assisted descent over the desert of White Sands Space Harbor, New Mexico. It touched down on time at 6:49 pm EDT (2249 GMT).
The roughly five-hour return trip from the space station, an orbital outpost some 250 miles above Earth, checks off the last leg of a repeat test flight that Boeing had first attempted in 2019, but failed to complete after running into software failures.
The latest test mission moves Starliner, beset by repeated delays and costly engineering setbacks, a major step closer to providing NASA with a second reliable avenue for ferrying astronauts to and from the space station.
Starliner was lofted to orbit last Thursday atop an Atlas V rocket furnished by the Boeing-Lockheed Martin joint venture United Launch Alliance and achieved its main objective - a rendezvous with the ISS, even though four of its multiple onboard thrusters malfunctioned along the way.
Boeing engineers also had to improvise a workaround for a thermal control defect during the final approach of the capsule to the space station.
Since resuming crewed flights to orbit from American soil in 2020, nine years after the space shuttle program ended, the US space agency has had to rely solely on Falcon 9 rockets and Crew Dragon capsules from billionaire Elon Musk's private company SpaceX.
Previously, the only other option for reaching the orbiting laboratory was by hitching rides aboard Russia's Soyuz spacecraft, an alternative currently less attractive in light of heightened US-Russian tensions over the war in Ukraine.
Much is on the line for Boeing, as the Chicago-based company scrambles to climb out of successive crises in its jetliner business and space-defense unit. The Starliner program alone has cost the company nearly $600 million over the past 2-1/2 years.
An ill-fated first orbital test flight of Starliner in late 2019 nearly ended with the vehicle's loss following a software glitch that effectively foiled the spacecraft's ability to reach the space station.
The do-over test mission that wrapped up on Wednesday could pave the way for Starliner to fly its first astronaut crew to the space station sometime next year, pending a redesign of Starliner's propulsion system valves and a resolution of the thruster issues that popped up mid-mission.
The orbiting outpost is currently home to a crew of three US NASA astronauts, an Italian astronaut from the European Space Agency, and three Russian cosmonauts. While Starliner was parked to the station, some of those astronauts boarded the capsule to analyze its cabin conditions.

Why did Manville Switch to a 9 Period Day?
Doris Lopez
Email This Story
In 8th grade, we had 8 periods a day. So why do we have 9 periods in 9th grade? Are we going to have 10 periods in 10th grade? MHS used to have 9 periods, however due to lack of funding, they had to switch to an 8 period day. Currently, MHS has moved back to 9 periods because of the increase of funding.
This 9 period day allows the students to have more elective classes, however the periods are cut shorter therefore, potentially not permitting students to have enough class time to finish their work. This resulting in homework. MHS has helped with this by providing students with more activities after school, such as middle earth that kids can enjoy or get help on whatever they need.
Some people believe that 8 periods a day was better because students had more time in their favorite class, however others said, having 8 period classes was easier because they didn’t really have that much homework to do because they were able to get their stuff done in class.
Overall, this year MHS is staying with 9 periods a day, so we all better get organized and adjusted!

The Golden Gophers extended their lead to two goals early in the second period on a goal by junior forward Kelly Terry giving her seven goals on the season.
Wisconsin struggled on the attack in the second period managing just five shots on goal while Minnesota continued to get chances with 12 shots on goal.
Despite UM’s relentless attack, UW junior goaltender Alex Rigsby and the Wisconsin defense was able to hold the Golden Gophers to just one goal in the second.

VBAC Memories Part V
Kelly has shared her beautiful story about the birth of her first child and her subsequent VBACs. I know that so many of you will be able to relate to the wide range of emotions.
“I was diagnosed with pre eclampsia and put on bed rest at 30 weeks with my first child. At 34 weeks my protein levels were dangerously high, and I started to have neurological symptoms (blurred vision, headaches). I wanted to avoid a c section, so my OB induced. I feel like I was set up for failure. A c section from the beginning would have been easier than three days of labor and magnesium ending in a c section. Because I was given magnesium I could not get out of bed and had to use a bed pan because they wouldn’t put in a catheter yet. The charge nurse was condescending and rude, and the entire experience was humiliating. I didn’t have experience and had not done adequate research and just trusted what my doctors told me to do. Sofie was in the NICU for a week, and I didn’t see her for 24 hours after she was born. I remember the doctors in the OR discussing their vacations. It was insulting. They were making the biggest event in my life something routine. I didn’t feel a connection to her and had PPD and post-traumatic stress that lingered for at least a year. After I came home from the hospital I remember not wanting to be left alone with her. I also remember watching a baby show after I came home. The mother had a similar experience and someone commented that she didn’t know how someone could not feel a connection with their child. I heard SO many times “at least she is here and healthy”. Those comments just made me feel worse, like I wasn’t entitled to feel like the experience of child birth was taken from me. I was embarrassed for having bad feelings related to her birth, so I didn’t talk about it for a long time with anyone other than my husband. If something touched my scar or if I felt a twinge where it was healing I would feel sick because it would bring back memories of the birth. I remember eventually reading an article about how many times when an animal is given a c section it would reject the baby, and everything started to make sense. When we were ready for a second baby I went back to the same OB and asked about a VBAC. She told me that we could try labor, but if I wasn’t dilated by 40 weeks, there was no reason to push it. I never went back there. I went on to have a VBAC with a 10 lb 2 oz baby at 40 weeks 5 days. I had an epidural. His birth was so healing. I was not dilated at all at 40 weeks…I’m so glad I switched doctors. I felt validated in my earlier feelings and was finally able to talk about it openly. My husband’s support and understanding was a huge factor in healing from my first birth. My third was completely natural (8 pounds 12 ounces). I had a doula with my second and third. Support from a doula was invaluable for me and my husband. Just having someone who believed I could do it and was on my side gave me the extra support that I needed to have my 2 hospital VBACs.” ~ Kelly
Your story is every bit as beautiful as you and your family! Thank you for sharing, Kelly!

What Will the Job Market Look like in 20 years?
October 15, 2021
Share |
The labor markets are in the midst of a huge disruption. The September Non-Farm Payroll Report released last week showed three key numbers:
• A .4% drop in the unemployment rate, from 5.2% to 4.8%.
• A 4.6% wage growth (annualized)
• And 11 million unfilled job openings
In addition, consider the various changes impacting jobs:
• Wage growth overall has lagged our economic growth for 50 years
• 18 months of remote work has changed our perception of our jobs
• Early retirement is reducing available workers
• Childcare remains a challenge in most of the country
• Demographics is increasing demand for specific jobs
• Technology keeps creating and destroying entire markets
• Covid-19 is still a threat to frontline workers
Automation is driving huge number of jobs away (and creating new ones). Please take a look at the chart below from Bank of America’s Haim Israel, showing likely declines:
The chart shows that retail businesses are changing dramatically. Likely decreases are expected for retail salespersons, fast food and counter workers, servers, cooks and others. Amazon Go is already here- a convenience store with no personnel. You select products by yourself and pay using a self-checkout station. Other jobs that will likely decrease are administrative assistants, office clerks, bookkeepers, accountants and auditors, construction laborers, and shipping clerks.
Nurses and teachers seem to have more job security. Jobs that require math and computer skills, higher education, creativity and social skills should be in high demand.
In addition to the jobs that are not shown in the chart above as declining, here are twenty jobs, many of them created by technology, that appear to have a strong future as well:
1. Coders. Code serves as the foundation for computer programs and software applications. Its instructions make everything from operating systems to games work properly. Coding is becoming one of the most sought-after skills for tech companies and research groups. In the UK, schools are adding coding to the primary school curriculum and one school hired a 10 year old prodigy as a teacher.
2. Cybersecurity Analyst. These “white hat hackers” protect company hardware, software and networks from cybercriminals.
3. Big Data Analyst.These folks are becoming the new leaders in the niche of businesses development. They like numbers and breaking down complex information into algorithms that help companies make important decision decisions.
4. AI Jobs. This is about making functional robots and enhancing business processes.
5. Data Detective.These data inspectors would hunt down the use of data by certain companies, to help enforce data laws.
6. Geneticist. With the power to edit genes, we should be able to reduce the risk of serious health conditions and vastly improve the quality of life for many people.
7. Mental Health Specialist. Just as we will always need doctors and nurses, we will also need mental health specialists to help us get through tough times.
8. Data Brokers. Data brokers will be responsible for facilitating business agreements between data companies and those who want to buy chunks of data; making sure that the data is not further shared, thereby maintaining the integrity of the new data market.
9. Drone Pilot. Drones are becoming part of our society-providing medical supplies, assessing building structures and wind turbines and revolutionizing delivery services. Drone experts will be needed to manufacture machines, maintain them and fly them.
10. Software Developers.They create new systems to automate processes. They analyze, understand execute, and perform maintenance for platforms and write code that builds businesses and services.
11. Customer Experience Specialist. They provide all necessary assistance to a client/customer when a certain product is bought or a service is hired.
12. Creator. They create online content and are digital influencers. They help connect brands with people; both existing and new customers.
13. Advisor to Creators. They help creators develop partnerships with companies and guide and manage creator career paths.
14. Online teacher.To share their knowledge through online courses as part of the online classroom.
15. Coach. Lots of coaches- fitness, romance, emotional intelligence, weight loss, spirituality, etc.
16. Waste Manager. We produce lots of waste. The waste manager creates new solutions to find better ways to deal with all that discarded material.
17. Specialist in renewable or alternative energy.
18. Wealth Manager.This position helps families identify and meet their financial and personal goals and requires math/computer skills, higher education, creativity and social skills.
19. Walker/Talker.They spend time with elderly customers. Lots of older people live far from their families and don’t have anyone to talk to. The elderly want and need someone to listen to them and really pay attention to what they have to say.
20. Social Media Analyst.They plan, create and analyze profile posts on social media to help companies grow their brand.
The biggest insight for the years to come is thinking about careers that deal with creativity and relationship. Computers cannot adequately accomplish these. In addition, not only are jobs changing but the concept of success is also under scrutiny. We’re living longer and a job that makes you happy makes more and more sense.
The world is changing fast. Technology and automation are making some jobs obsolete and creating new ones. Are you and those you love ready for the huge changes coming in the job market? We hope so.

What Do Autumn Colors Mean to You?
Contemplating Grace, 24 x 18 x 1.5 inches, acrylic and graphite on Arches paper, mounted to cradled panel board, ready to hang.
It's here again. That time when I am astonished by the delicacy and grace and beauty of backlit trees in autumn. I know I'm not alone in that feeling.
I hike in the mountains, or I walk through the woods of a nature preserve nearby, and I feel a stirring, a yearning of deep and poignant emotions.
It's enough to make me research and read about the symbolism of autumn, because it's that powerful. It's not just about dying. That much I have always sensed. But what else is it?
Change, self-reflection, awareness.
Mystery, preservation, protection.
Comfort, balance, mindfulness.
And letting go. Always, the letting go.
It's funny how sometimes (most times?) we feel something before we know it. But how do I say it when words, or even a photograph or realistic rendition won't do? How do I communicate it and connect with other souls who feel it, too?
For me, the answer is expressive, semi-abstract, or abstract art (also called "non-representational"). My emotions speaking to yours, through color, line, rhythm, movement, shape, and maybe a little grace. You feeling it and adding your own because of your story.
I think in terms like these:
Vertical, arcing, crisscrossing lines of burnt umber.
Earthy dark and mid-tone sap greens, punctuated by brilliant lime.
Indian yellow glowing from behind.
The beating heart of alizarin crimson.
Transparent colors—only those can capture the glow and hint at what's going on here.
They show the veils of lives past.
The need to hang onto the glory of now.
The mystery of what might come.
These are the things I think about. Dream about.
Because, yes, I did dream about painting this last night.
Some people have stress dreams. I have painting dreams.
I'm not the only artist who does.
But I'm the only artist who can capture mine.
Something about the brilliance of autumn colors—the last hurrah before cold stillness—gets me every year.
And I'm brought back every time it does, to this: I am contemplating grace.
The beauty and grace of these dying leaves in their brilliance, in their fragility, even in their last stages of ugliness. There's a profound lesson in that.
I hope you're doing well and enjoying the beauty of autumn in your own way.
Until next time,

Dear Josephine and Mable { 4 months }
Dear Josephine and Mable,
4 months... 1/3 of your first year of life has already flown by... I'm pretty positive the next few months will come and go just as quickly (but we don't want to talk about that)... They say "time flies when you're having fun..." I'd have to say that it describes the last few months perfectly. Difficult, yes.... but oh so fun.
Mommy's camera broke this month, because of a careless thing she did (she left it in Daddy's truck bed while helping Marley ride her bike...forgot that it was there, and it rained and pouredThis last month you two have stayed awake SO much more than you have in past months. You're taking everything in, observing, tracking, paying attention to your surroundings... You two love laying side by side one another. You play so sweetly laying on your backs... and occasionally look over at one another. Mable, you noticed Josey a long time ago... but this was the first month where Josey started to pay attention to you. She usually is so occupied playing, that she completely tunes you out. But now, she senses you, looks over at you, and then carries on with playing. You two kick your feet around like crazy... you could probably march across the United States if your steps counted for something. Mable, you roll from side to side... and Josey you kick so hard that you move your body up or down. You definitely get your energies out, because when it's time to nap or go to sleep for the night, you two are completely tuckered out.
You both are sleeping through the night (for the most part). You go to bed between 7:30-8:30, and wake up close to around that time. Sometimes you wake up for a quick feed around 3 or 4 am, but you go right back to sleep. It's a glorious thing. We've only had a handful of nights where you two have tag teamed against Mommy. Those nights make her feel like an 80 year old woman the next day, so we are beyond thankful to you for not doing that all the time, and only during growth spurts. We're starting to create more of a nap time and night time routine, which helps give you two cues as to what's about to happen... and usually you don't fight sleep at all. We're pretty excited to move you into your own room sometime at the end of this month, or beginning of next month.
Josephine, our sweet Josey Jo... you darling have really started to chunk up this month. Tomorrow we head to the doctor for your 4 month check up/vaccines, and we're excited to hear how much you've grown. This is a BIG month for you... it's the month where we will head up to Seattle for your pre-op appointment (to make sure everything is in place and ready) and for your surgery. We're trying to take in all the last few memories that we can, with your face having that sweet little perfectly imperfect lip. You have the sweetest smile... a smirk really. You've figured out how to blow bubbles through your cleft. It's hilarious... seriously, one of the cutest things we've seen. We've embraced that little lip of yours. It's going to be strange seeing you with something different. This time next month, your photo will have your new lip with stitches, bruises and gunk... We've been preparing your sister and brother with the news of this surgery. They are not excited about the idea of you having stitches, and that you're going to be "cut"... Marley especially says she wants your lip to stay "broken"... she doesn't want to see you in pain or sad.
Mable, our Mabey Mabe... we've finally figured out your problems with spitting up! After taking you to the doctor, and not seeing a HUGE growth from the last weigh in, the doctor recommended putting you on Zantac for your reflux (to see if that made a change)... and boy did it. In one week, you gained 8 oz! Your appetite also went up. You've never been cranky/crabby... so we didn't think it was a big deal, but apparently the idea of spit ups looking like volcanic eruptions, is cause that something is up. You're our one and only baby to ever deal with this issue. You still spit up, a little here and there... but it's NOTHING compared to the amounts that used to come out of you. You're still a peanut, but I think you're just supposed to be our tiny one. We will see how things are going when we head to the doctor's tomorrow for your 4 month check up. Mable, you laughed and giggled before your sister did. It's the cutest, and it has been documented... we NEVER want to forget that sound. Your sister finally giggled the day after you. It takes a lot more energy to get her to laugh, than it does getting you to laugh. You love to be ticked around your neck folds or chest... it's the sweetest.
This month is a short one, so we are certain it'll pass quickly... but don't grow up too much. We keep wishing for you to be big enough to sit on your own, eat on your own, be out of diapers, or dress yourself, etc.... but really, we are soaking in the now... because we know those days will come eventually. We love seeing how much you two enjoy each other... we're starting to catch on and understand the whole, "it's a twin thing" phrase... and have a feeling that it'll make even more and more sense the older you two get.
We can't get over how much Charlotte, Marley and Finn love you two. We knew they would... but man, not a day passes where you don't get smooched on x100. When you cry out at all, or make a little peep, Marley comes running in wanting to help you however she can. Charlotte rocks you so sweetly in her arms. Finn likes to show you all his animals. They each have their ways of loving on you. Both of you smile at them all day long. You love when they show you any bit of attention.
You two are quite the "hit" when we are out and about. People love stopping us to know all about you. They keep asking Mommy if she's had two sets of twins, because your brother and sister Marley are so close in age and looks... but you two are the ones that made me a "twin mama."
Daddy, Mommy, Charlotte, Marley and Finn.
Take a look at their birth story, 1 month post, 2 month post, and 3 month post.

Why Do Hockey Players Tape Their Socks?
by Simon | Posted On: February 20th, 2020
orange socks tape
If you have ever been in a hockey locker room, you will know that clear tape, or sock tape can make you the most popular person in the room quickly. It seems like everyone also needs it, and no one ever has it. Most fans have seen and may even understand why a hockey player would put tape on their sticks, but why socks?
Hockey players tape their socks to keep socks and shin guards from moving either side to side or down while playing in a game or practicing. Most players shin guards are held by a strip of Velcro on the front and back of their legs. 2 pieces of Velcro per leg to help keep the guard in place. Unfortunately, this velcro is very rarely enough to maintain upright shin guards for an entire game or practice.
Why Doesn’t Velcro Work?
As hockey evolves and many teams do away with the classic cloth socks for more advanced, lighter weight alternatives we see more and more that the Velcro is not enough to do the job.
Without all the fabric of the cloth sock to grab onto, these newer socks tend to shift, slide, and fall as a player begins to sweat, fall, or skate.
The tape on the socks is an easy fix for this issue as they became snug to the leg. This tape will also ensure that your shin guards stay in place through any tumbles or pucks that may cause them to shift otherwise.
Alternatives to Sock Tape
There are some alternatives to sock tape out there for those looking to save some money or trying to be environmentally conscious.
Even if one only skates once or twice a week, taping your legs up each game can be very costly in the long run, especially if you have some needy teammates (that ‘borrow’ your tape each week)
They sell Velcro straps that would go in the same place of the tape that can be used multiple times. The reason you do not see these as often is that they are extremely visible and many teams would not allow them.
Why Sock Tape is Clear
The reason sock tape is clear is so that in games your teams colors are not hidden and everyone is uniform. In my opinion these would be better alternatives for practices or open skates where you can get away with mismatching should you choose to do so. Next time you are looking for a gift for your hockey playing friends or family, know you can never go wrong with clear tape, everyone needs it.

PPP's Failure To Serve Masses In AJK Made Way For PML-N: Kirmani
PPP's failure to serve masses in AJK made way for PML-N: Kirmani
ISLAMABAD(Pakistan Point News - APP - 22nd july,2016) : Special Assistant to the Prime Minister Syed Asif Kirmani has said that failure of Pakistan Peoples' Party's government to serve the masses in Azad Kashmir during its tenure, made way for Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz to secure majority seats in Legislative Assembly. "People were fed up of their incompetence and corruption. They were deprived of basic facilities during last five years, so they vented their ire on Peoples Party in AJK election through their right to vote," he said in an interview with ptv.
Kirmani said the Federal government had provided Rs 300 billion to the AJK government in five years and if this amount is divided on each district then every district should have Rs 30 billion for development. "But, during our visit to different areas during the election campaign, we witnessed that hardly Rs one million were spent on development in each district. Situation over there speaks volumes of their corruption and incompetence.
" He said somebody must be held responsible for this sheer wastage of the public money and if the PML-N gets majority in AJK elections, it will definitely bring those to book who have usurped the hard earned money of the tax payers. "Accountability is imperative to ensure good governance. If people repose confidence on us, we shall recover the looted money." He said he visited from Bhimber to Taobut and it was painful that roads were worn out, hospitals were without equipment and doctors and schools without roofs and people talked of rampant corruption of the PPP government in every town of city of Azad Kashmir.
He said the PML-N after winning the elections the PML-N government would diligently work for welfare of people in Azad Kashmir as the Prime Minister has already chalked out an uplift plan especially in infrastructure, education, health sectors and provision of clean drinking water. Comparing his party's agenda with other parties, he said, the PML-N campaign was purely based on a welfare agenda while others failed to present a comprehensive plan of masses progress.
Kirmani said, PPP did a disservice to Bilawal Bhutto by not telling him truth about the corruption of AJK government. When he was taking credit of development projects, people were laughing because they knew well about corruption of AJK government. He also regretted the speeches of PTI Chief Imran Khan who has been talking of distributing sweets if the PML-N government is shown the door. "But, now people are mature about democracy and his speeches also sent an annoying message across the border to people in occupied Kashmir.
" He said despite threats by the AJK Prime Minister, the PML-N avoided any brawl or scuffle. "Our endeavors were for a peaceful democratic process so our brothers in occupied Kashmir take pride in saying that there is true democracy in Azad Kashmir contrary to Indian occupied Kashmir where masses rights to independent opinion are usurped through tyranny." He appreciated the role of Army personnel and the civil administration in the conduct of polls and said, the credit of peaceful and transparent also elections goes to them. He said his party also ensured that no public resources are used on election campaign. "We used our personal vehicles and met other expenditures from our pockets. Not a single penny of the federal government was spent."

I have just purchased a very old Marblehead I do not know the hull number but I think it ends in 89. The boat is multi chine plywood construction. I know it was built before 1988.
I have puchased it as a means of learning how to Rig and Sail Swingrigs.
It is fitted with a Drum Winch (Red) made by D H Andrews does anybody have any information on these winches?
Thanks if any body can help
Best regards
Hi John
Sounds like the winch is a ‘Whirlwind’, probably an ‘Atlas’. Dave Andrews was the original owner of the business, I believe, before he sold it to Keith Skipper in the late 1980’s as I remember. Whirlwind has been out of business for a couple of years now, but Keith advertises that he still does repairs on older models. Note that there was a “variant” of the Atlas called a Tensor, with digital rather than analogue control circuitry, which had some problems. It is unlikely this is what is in your Marblehead.

Ethical Vegan: How You Can Make a Change
Ethical Vegan: How You Can Make a Change
Seunghee Lee, ‘19
We all say that we are against animal cruelty. We all say that we love animals. We acknowledge that products in the market from cosmetics to medicine are manufactured through unethical process. But we never do anything. An Ethical Vegan is one who incorporates their beliefs against the cruelty of animals into their lifestyle by using cruelty-free products; an act that you too can participate in.
Every year, millions of rabbits, monkeys, rats, cats, sheep and so many more innocent species of animals are killed for animal testing. Are their deaths even worth it? Results tell us that they aren’t. According to the 2015 report by People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA), 92% of successful animal tested products fail when used on humans. And yet, millions of innocent lives are killed for this meaningless cause each year. They cut holes in the stomachs of animals and pour in liquid by poking tubes into their eyes. There are millions of alternatives such as using 3D tissue construct models currently used in breast cancer treatment research.
Companies (mostly cosmetics) that use animal testing (Copyright PETA)
I’m not telling you to go vegetarian. I’m telling you that as a consumer you have to acknowledge that some of the products that you unknowingly buy are funding and paying the companies that produce in unethical ways. Inisfree, Chanel, TonyMoly, Estee Lauder, Dior, Kiehls; for any brand you name, chances are, they use animal testing.
It’s hard to start an ethical vegan lifestyle. So here’s a starter’s guide. PETA has a list of the companies that use animal testing ranging from cosmetic brands to types of clothing material to avoid. You can also look up various YouTubers who live a vegan and vegetarian lifestyle by just searching vegan on YouTube.
After being a vegetarian and an ethical vegan(though I am still at the beginning) for little over a month. I have learned that it isn’t easy to maintain this lifestyle in Korea. Change will happen in the smallest of places when you focus on issues instead of leaving them in the dust. Start now. Take control of the changes you can make.

I am starting to look into Enterprise Java and the book I am following mentions that it will use JBoss. Netbeans ships with Glassfish. I have used Tomcat in the past.
What are the differences between these three programs?
share|improve this question
these questions are the 'curse' of opensource. There is sometimes too many choices that do nearly the exact same thing. For newbies, it can lead to paralysis by analysis. Eclipse is the dominant IDE yet almost all books worth buying are using netbeans to develop and teach. It uses Glassfish when I've seen most businesses use Jboss in real life. There are learning curves to using each container, and it can be very frustrating for newbies. – user798719 Apr 10 '13 at 3:24

Tomcat is just a servlet container, i.e. it implements only the servlets and jsp specification. Glassfish and JBoss are full Java EE servers(including stuff like EJB, JMS, ...), with Glassfish being the reference implementation of the latest Java EE 6 stack, but JBoss is not fully supporting it yet.
share|improve this answer
you're answer was like a head shot!!! awesome!!! – BlaShadow Jun 28 '12 at 21:58
Note to readers, JBoss is now Java EE 6 Full Profile certified like GlassFish. As well Tomcat is now Java EE 6 Web Profile certified via TomEE and supports EJB, CDI, JSF, JPA, and more. – David Blevins Jul 24 '12 at 17:35
@DavidBlevins so what are now the differences? – aldo.roman.nurena Aug 23 '13 at 23:07
@aldo.roman.nurena Very few differences. GlassFish and JBoss both support the Java EE Full Profile, so they have support for legacy technologies like JAX-RPC and CORBA. We didn't include these in the Java EE version of Tomcat, but all current technology is there like JAX-RS, JAX-WS, JMS, CDI, JPA, JSF, EJB, JTA, etc. – David Blevins Aug 26 '13 at 21:01
Clean and simple answer, thanks a lot! – srisar Sep 12 '14 at 4:17
Tomcat is merely an HTTP server and Java servlet container. JBoss and GlassFish are full-blown Java EE application servers, including an EJB container and all the other features of that stack. On the other hand, Tomcat has a lighter memory footprint (~60-70 MB), while those Java EE servers weigh in at hundreds of megs. Tomcat is very popular for simple web applications, or applications using frameworks such as Spring that do not require a full Java EE server. Administration of a Tomcat server is arguably easier, as there are fewer moving parts.
However, for applications that do require a full Java EE stack (or at least more pieces that could easily be bolted-on to Tomcat)... JBoss and GlassFish are two of the most popular open source offerings (the third one is Apache Geronimo, upon which the free version of IBM WebSphere is built). JBoss has a larger and deeper user community, and a more mature codebase. However, JBoss lags significantly behind GlassFish in implementing the current Java EE specs. Also, for those who prefer a GUI-based admin system... GlassFish's admin console is extremely slick, whereas most administration in JBoss is done with a command-line and text editor. GlassFish comes straight from Sun/Oracle, with all the advantages that can offer. JBoss is NOT under the control of Sun/Oracle, with all the advantages THAT can offer.

That's quite a sharp answer too ! – Chucky Jul 12 '12 at 12:53
I have not validated, but some claim that for a regular project, an EE 6 container might use 25% less memory than Spring + its dependencies. – Arjan Aug 23 '12 at 19:52
+1, excellent answer, though I subscribe to @Arjan's comment: really the memory used by these servers themselves is not that important as compared to how much memory a deployed application will need (and THAT depends strongly on the technologies used. Spring is somewhat of a memory hog) – Shivan Dragon Oct 2 '12 at 11:10
Heh... discussion of "servlet containers" vs. "JEE servers" always seem to turn into discussions of "Spring" vs. "EJB/JSF". I have used JEE for years, and am always happy to do so when a client pays me. However, my thoughts are: [1] most benchmarks on both sides come from biased sources, I've never noticed a big resource difference between the two stacks myself, [2] Spring is MUCH more portable than JEE "standards", with which it always seems painful to switch servers, and last but not least... – Steve Perkins Oct 3 '12 at 1:00
... [3] the user communities for Spring and Hibernate absolutely dwarf those of pure JEE specs. If you run into trouble with Spring and post a question on StackOverflow, it will be read by hundreds of people and you'll have a solid answer in minutes. Ask a question about JEE stuff, and it will be read by a dozen people... and half the time, the only response you get is, "It worked for me!". The JEE standards always seem like they're a day late and a dollar short, and I feel very lonely when I run into trouble with them in a real app. – Steve Perkins Oct 3 '12 at 1:07
jboss and glassfish include a servlet container(like tomcat), however the two application servers (jboss and glassfish) also provide a bean container (and a few other things aswell I imagine)
share|improve this answer
Glassfish can do anything Tomcat can but that does not mean it "includes" Tomcat. Glassfish has it's own web container. – Martin Oct 7 '10 at 10:00
To be clearer, the "like tomcat" is right, but JBoss actually embeds Tomcat for the as its servlet container implementation. – Chucky Jul 12 '12 at 12:54
Both JBoss and Tomcat are Java servlet application servers, but JBoss is a whole lot more. The substantial difference between the two is that JBoss provides a full Java Enterprise Edition (Java EE) stack, including Enterprise JavaBeans and many other technologies that are useful for developers working on enterprise Java applications.
Tomcat is much more limited. One way to think of it is that JBoss is a Java EE stack that includes a servlet container and web server, whereas Tomcat, for the most part, is a servlet container and web server.
