Introducing Laith AlBarakat
I am happy to let everyone know that we finally have our programmer position filled. Many of you remember that Jeff Carouth left our office last January. After a long search, and even longer bureaucratic delay, Laith AlBarakat starts with us today. We are all extremely glad to have him on the team.
Laith recently finished his Masters degree in Nuclear and Computational Science Engineering from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. He has an impressive background in PHP/MySQL programming and has the experience to lead our small group of student programmers. We will be introducing Laith to our projects list over the next few weeks and anticipate him picking them up right away. I hope he will also participate in the broader A&M programmer community and will have a chance to meet and work with many of you here on campus.

WWE Women's division traces its roots all the way back to 1983 when the WWF'S Fabulous Moolah sold the rights to her NWA World Women's Championship to WWF, and effectively became the first ever WWF Women's Champion.

New ink makes tattoos less permanent
Scientists at two U.S. universities developed a solution to make tattoos less permanent -- an ink that can be removed with a single laser treatment.
Tattoo removal traditionally is painful, expensive and time-consuming, often involving several laser treatments that aren't always effective and can scar, the New York Post said Friday. An average removal session costs as much as $400.
The new development by scientists at Harvard Medical School and Duke University is to hit the market within a few months. Tattoo artists told the Post they would welcome the new ink as long as it is safe.
Some, though, said they wonder whether the ink, developed by using beads called polymer microspheres, would hold up as well as traditional inks that include heavy metals to help forestall fading.
"It might open the door for some people who are worried about the permanence but, at the same time, the permanence is kind of the point of tattooing," Mehai Bakaty, co-owner of Fineline Tattoo in New York, told the newspaper.
One-in-four U.S. adults has at least one tattoo, the Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology said.

While we were away, I lined up my buddy Lynda and her son Jayk to house and dog sit. (the house is way less bother than the dogs! Tee! Hee! Hee!) Imagine how I felt to return home to find this sitting on my kitchen bench
Can you believe that!! There sure was some activity in sewing rooms around the world last year!! :0) As we wrap up OPAM 2012, I'd just like to take a moment to say a few thank you's. The first thank you is a SUPER DUPER one to my Partner-In-Crime, the Co-hostess with the Mostest, Sweet Peg. Not only does Sweet Peg share the workload behind the scenes of OPAM, she is a wonderful friend who encourages me to be creative, inspires me to set myself stitching goals (she finishes SOOOOO many projects!!!), surprises me with 'just because' gifties and makes me smile! :0) Thank you, Sweet Peg and here's to another year of exciting OPAM adventures!! :0)

Ever wonder how the super rich stay fit? A huge paycheck definitely affords them lavish facilities and top trainers, but many of their concerns are actually the same as the remaining 99% of us. Although you'd think looking good for the camera and media is their top priority, taking a deeper look at the fit lives of the wealthy show that regular exercise and meditation serve much larger purposes.
How and why the rich stay fit
When it comes to making big boardroom decisions, most executives like to take their time but when it comes time to hit the gym– it's a whole different story. They want it quick and intense according to their trainers.
"CEOs and top executives come in all shapes and sizes and have different goals. The one constant though is their lack of available workout time," says celebrity trainer and author David Kirsch.
That's why he designed a five minute, high-intensity interval training program so his big time clients can be in and out in no time.
"I recommend getting in at least one or two 5 minute express circuit workouts before you start your day. It will help fuel and energize you throughout the day," adds Kirsch, who founded the Madison Square Club in New York City, where he trains Heidi Klum, Liv Tyler, and Kate Upton, to name a few.
Another popular trend among executive powerhouses is exclusivity. They want their privacy when they are working up a sweat so they head to high price facilities like E at Equinox, which costs $26,000 for the year and CORE:, a private members-only club in New York City where CEOs can work out and dine in private. CORE's initiation fee is $50,000 with $17,000 yearly dues.
Holland says his clients like easy to follow but intense workouts, especially when they hit the road.
"Travel programs, fitness apps and virtual training are the latest trends in recent years, including the 'Scientific 7 Minute Workout' which gained popularity because of its effectiveness and short time requirement," he said.
David Harris, Vice President of Health and Human Performance at Equinox says there's no such thing as a "one size fits all" workout for an executive.
"They all have different goals and objectives based on their interests and health status. But if I were to pick a common thread it is the following: the need to de-stress through workouts that challenge their neurological, cardiovascular and muscular systems," he said. "Popular trends are self-limiting exercises, ones that you can use your body as leverage and resistance against yourself."
Harris adds that good old pushups, pull ups, and planks will all provide great benefits to workaholics and help them in real life situations. But he says while most of them will tell you that the end goal is how they look, the deeper reason almost always reveals that it's really about how they feel and function.
"A sound mind and body yield far better results than one that is constantly chasing the dollar. At the end of the day your health will suffer and so will business."

text: FYI getting this to work w/ v2.0 is probably no small amount of work. We've temporarily removed several features from v2.0 (such as CodeDom and the static type compiler) which were used by the VS SDK integration to varying degrees. The AST has also significantly changed which probably means the language service that targetted v1.x and shipped w/ the VS SDK is probably quite broken too. We are talking to the VS SDK team and trying to figure out what version their next release will target, when we can get those various features back into 2.0, etc... Unfortunately we don't have any sort of ETA yet. On the other issues: #1) You probably need the Mark of the Web in the .html file. This will tell IE that the file that's local on your machine is to be treated as being in the internet zone. A quick search for mark of the web should get you what you need. #2) There's an outer most exception handler and you might have VS setup to catch unhandled exceptions. Try disabling that in the exceptions menu. If that doesn't do it try disabling Just My Code and it should start catching all exceptions. ________________________________________ From: users-bounces at lists.ironpython.com [users-bounces at lists.ironpython.com] On Behalf Of Aaron Leiby [fireonyoursleeve at hotmail.com] Sent: Monday, May 14, 2007 4:15 PM To: Discussion of IronPython Subject: Re: [IronPython] Orcas integration? > Any luck? I didn't get to spend too much time on this yesterday, but all the IronPython Visual Studio integration seems to have been ported over intact. It's still using IP1.1 though, and I didn't dig far enough to see what it would take to update it to use IP2.0. Also, the Silverlight project wizards create a C# vproj which builds a dll and then launches your app in IE. There aren't yet any project wizards for setting up a similar vproj for IronPython. Of course the whole point of the VS SDK is so we can add this stuff ourselves, but I'd rather focus on using the tools at this point instead of extending them. You can setup a C# Silverlight project and simply remove all the .cs files, add your own .py files and switch the XAML over to using that instead: <x:Code Source="Page.py" Type="text/python" /> Two things keeping this from being useful for me at this time: 1) IE pops up the ActiveX "are you sure" warning every time you launch for debugging (this doesn't happen when just using the default C# codebehind). 2) The debugger doesn't catch exceptions thrown by IronPython (like it does when launching an IronPython project) - instead the script just halts (though other bits of the Silverlight app continue running as though nothing happened). The first one is just annoying, but the second one killed me when I wasted an hour due to a missing 'global' declaration. x = 10 def foo(): global x # <-- I was missing this x = -x Definitely a step in the right direction, but still a little early to be working with it at this point it seems.

Zeer goed ontvangen door verhuurder die tijd voor je neemt. Het appartement is goed ingericht en een ideale plek om Rome te bezoeken.
Localisation de l'appartement dans un secteur moins touristique, près d'un métro et à une distance de marche d'un grand nombre de centres d'intérêt. Le fait que le proprio habite dans le même immeuble et qu'il s'exprime très bien en anglais. Francesco est très sympathique et très avenant. Il a prévu quelques denrées de base (dont un bon Chianti), nous a fourni un plan du quartier avec des références, s'est occupé de nos arrangements pour le transport à l'aéroport et a toujours répondu avec empressement à nos requêtes.
propriétaire agréable, accueillant et de bons conseils. Appartement agréable et bien équipé Situation Ok proche métro 5mn ou Piazza del Popolo 8mn Wi fi possible sur demande
Uitstekend, sfeervol appartement met een prima ligging, vooral geschikt voor 2 personen. Heerlijk thuiskomen na een dag Rome met voldoende restaurantjes en winkels in de buurt. Openbaar vervoer om de hoek.
Location .

La qualité de l'accueil :hôte agréable et très serviable
Beautiful, spacious, clean and well-situated apartment.
Location fantastic!/Cleanliness of apartment - Superb!/Super Equipped/Quite appropriately priced with regard to quality and location/Friendly and warm welcome/Very Professional and caring for tenant's needs upon arrival. We dearly appreciated the effort put into our welcome by a friend of the owner, as the landlord was out of town at the time of our booking. He was indeed very very caring and concerned that we were satisfied with everything. A bit of a language barrier but we managed to be understood on both sides we hope?! Bottom line, we truly appreciated his efforts and follow through!
Añpartamento espacioso y muy confortable. El propipetario muy detallista, accesible y cordial.
This stunning apartment gave us real luxury during our tour around Italy and the landlord, Francesco, couldn't have been more wonderful. What a fabulous welcome we received which added so much to our stay and I really hope we have the chance to stay here again. The location was a 10-15 min walk to the Vatican and then not much further to Piazza Navona and the Pantheon. With a tube station just around the corner too the whole of Rome is at your finger tips. We tried our own espresso here for the first time and felt really at home. I cannot recommend this apartment highly enough.
Heel goed. Heel gastvrij. Heel sfeervol.
Accueil du proprio excellent. Appartement très bien situé et très beau. À conseiller.
sehr schönes Apartment, gut gelegen, Vermieter hilfreich und freundlich
Spacious and clean appartment in a nice neighbourhood. Good location to stay.

Apart from the apartment itself which was perfect for our needs and ideally located, the owner who lives in the same block was fantastic - very welcoming, very informative
Convenient location, also with regard to supermarket etc. The apartment was well equiped with eveything we needed.
L'ensemble de l'appartement, la proximité de la station de métro LEPANTO, sa situation par rapport au centre de Rome et le Vatican. Acceuil du propriétaire très cahleureux.
We loved the artwork displayed thoughout the apartment. It felt like a real home. If we had as much space in such gracious surroundings in a hotel, it would have cost much much more. We especially liked the location of this apartment being in a very elegant part of the city. We would highly recommend this apartment.
Well decorated and furnished apartment, very handy for buses, shops, Vatican, metro. Very secure and a friendly owner on hand.
Erg goed, vooral de zeer vriendelijk Francesco die voor een warm welkom zorgde deed het gevoel van tevredenheid zeker toenemen. Het appartement heeft een goede uitstraling, prima bed.
it was very spacious and the owner franceso was very nice. it was also very nice that there was water bottles, coffee, tea, sugar and milk plus a few other things because it can be a pain to shop.
Convenient location; very tasteful decor; down comforter and pillows; remodeled and well equipped kitchen and bath. The owner was very helpful and friendly, and spoke excellent English.

Employers are putting more resources into staff health improvement. There has been a lot of publicity in recent months about healthier working environments – especially office environments. People tend to associate factory jobs or manual labour jobs with health and safety issues, but repetitive strain injuries and health problems associated with the correct setting up of work-stations is a serious issue too. This is where ergonomically designed office furniture. Like the range of Elite Linnea elevate bench office desks comes into play.
Fraser Property Australia promote staff health and wellness with their new HQ in Sydney
Getting the office environment design right was the subject of a recent article on the HC Online website. The article was in relation to Frasers Property Australia who has recently unveiled their new HQ in Sydney at Rhodes Corporate Park. The project comprised a $9.8, 3,700 square metre fit-out.
The new fit-out is part of a campaign to improve the health and wellness of their staff and to promote improved innovation and leadership. Mr Reini Otter, Fraser's executive general manager, explained that the design indicates the company's corporate ethic and its business culture, in addition to pointing the way to their future hopes.
In terms of staff wellness, Mr Otter described an inherent passive approach that will promote and encouragement staff movement within the new premises. Simple things like everyone using one entrance and exit door; a communal kitchen cafe area (before there were four separate areas) and providing staff with their own lockers instead of having to rely on storing things at their desks.
Encouraging engagement and knowledge sharing
The design of the new HQ in Sydney is all about promoting engagement between members of staff and sharing knowledge. The encouragement of staff movement facilitates the sharing of knowledge within teams and also fosters inter-team sharing.
The company ethic is to empower its staff and give them the autonomy they need in order to complete their work in the most effective way. They believe that when people are empowered in this way, that their attitudes respond positively and that it shows in the way that they tackle the tasks at hand.
Promoting physical health and well-being with Elite Linnea Elevate bench office desks
What Fraser has done encourages movement, giving staff a greater visibility among themselves and encouraging communication. This is a way of promoting mental health and well-being, in a similar way that purchasing ergonomically designed office furniture like Elite Linnea Elevate bench office desks, promotes physical health and well-being.
The range of Elite Linnea Elevate bench office desks are all manufactured with one principle in mind, and that is the ergonomics of the individual worker. Having said that, these desks are also designed to be configured seamlessly, enabling best use of the office space available.
The adjustable height feature of these desks allows the working surface to be individually adjusted for people of all shapes and sizes, including workers who are confined to wheelchairs. The adjustment is provided courtesy of a manual crank, in compliance with the DDA) Disability Discrimination Act).
When employers act to look after their employees' health in both the mental and the physical planes, everyone's a winner as it can foster better relations and improved productivity.

Made In Canada Review: Looking Is The Original Sin
Cast: Katie Boland, Maria del Mar, Jayne Eastwood
Director: Gail Harvey
Country: Canada
Genre: Drama
Editor's Notes: Looking Is The Original Sin will have its world premiere at the Montreal World Film Festival on August 23th with an additional screening on August 24th.
Greatness can be a gift as well as a curse. To be truly great, one must invest oneself fully in their work, must give up a large part of their soul for what they do. Selfishness is a negative trait, but in many ways it is an inherent aspect of greatness. The annals of cinema are full to the brim of "great man" stories that focus on the triumphs and downplay the collateral damage left in the wake of titanic achievements. Looking Is The Original Sin is a rare gem then, distinct in two ways: This is a story of a "great woman" and one focused intently, almost exclusively on the damage that strive for excellence can cause. Based heavily on the life of Diane Arbus, the film follows Helene (Maria Del Mar), a photographer dealing with depression and instability, and her tumultuous relationship with her daughter Anna (Katie Boland, Gail Harvey's real-life daughter), who also finds herself adrift. The two ruin each other even as they strive to save each other, and the film is smart about the compromises they make and the validity of their choices.
This is a story of a "great woman" and one focused intently, almost exclusively on the damage that strive for excellence can cause.
Early in the film, Helene tells Anna, in a video she makes for her benefit, "You know I love you. I've always loved you. But I have to love life too." That Helene loves her daughter is never in question throughout the film; it is how she loves her, and how she cannot, that drives the narrative. Helene refuses to feel guilty about her need to live her own life, and ultimately, she refuses to let being a mother stand in the way of being an artist. This is a difficult choice to watch, and its portrayed as a devastating one for both Helene and Anna, yet the film is also wise about how it may not be the wrong one. It's certainly not the best choice for Helene as a mothering strategy, but she is consumed with larger concerns, and while she finds herself wracked with guilt at her own failings, she will not let that guilt stop her from making her art, even if it destroys her mind and her family in the process.
Helene is the perfect portrait of an artist fascinated with her own openness and in love with her self-constructed freewheeling spirit. She speaks into the camera in the video she makes (which crops up throughout the film) as if she is dropping truths far more profound than she is, yet she sells every nugget as a timeless truth, and in the moment, she believes it. She covers up her weaknesses by pretending to see them as strengths, but she can never bury the truth deep enough to make it disappear. Del Mar gives a wrenching performance, so achingly earnest it can be hard to watch but it remains almost impossible to turn away from. She plays Helene as a woman who knows the consequences of every decision she makes and realizes that if she ever stops to consider them for too long, she'll drown. In lesser hands, Helene would be played as painfully aloof or coldly unloving, but Del Mar is neither. She plays the artist as an open wound trying to be her own scab, a woman driven by her demons even as they threaten to consume her fully.
Writer-director Gail Harvey has crafted a painfully beautiful portrait of a toxic yet vital mother-daughter relationship and a film that smartly plays both sides of a complex debate.
Boland is similarly excellent as a young woman desperate to understand her mother and terrified of losing her. Anna is forced to be a mother but cannot completely shed her status as a daughter. She tries to follow in her mother's footsteps even as she makes her own tentative movements toward forming her identity. The relationship between the two forms the cornerstone of the film and provides its shattered soul. Each woman is on her own journey, but the two are linked together in ways that may destroy them, or may provide each her own salvation.
Writer-director Gail Harvey has crafted a painfully beautiful portrait of a toxic yet vital mother-daughter relationship and a film that smartly plays both sides of a complex debate. Nothing in Looking Is The Original Sin is reductive about the questions of work-life balance for Helene, but that conflict doesn't swallow up the film, either. There's an artful plotlessness here, and the movie unfurls naturally from start to finish. Things happen, but they never feel constructed; there's a story, but its one that feels drawn from life rather than constructed by the writer. This is a smart screenplay that feels writerly only when Helene is flattering herself as brilliantly introspective. Otherwise, the script seems to disappear entirely as only the best can. Similarly, Harvey has an uncanny feel for mood, balancing close-ups and medium shots in a way that shows a mastery of perspective, and utilizing a handheld shot better (if perhaps no more originally) than I've seen in quite some time.
The soundtrack to the film is also stupendous, a series of crushingly gorgeous songs that might feel on the nose if they weren't so perfectly deployed. Each needle drop feels timed to the tee, and each song elicits exactly the emotion it seems intended to convey. Often in film the musical montage can feel painfully contrived or overdone, but these feel wonderfully paced and excellently placed for supreme emotional impact.
Looking Is The Original Sin is quietly devastating, an emotionally resonant film that treats a complex subject matter with suitable weight. Carried by two phenomenal performances, the film tells the story of their relationship, but it also allows each to develop her own sense of self along the way. Helene is a hard character to love, but in Del Mar's hands she is an easy one to understand, and its impossible not to empathize with her. Anna, on the other hand, is easy to sympathize with, but Boland also allows her to be self-destructive, impulsive, and flawed. In telling the story of this mother-daughter pairing, Gail Harvey has created a compelling portrait of an artist torn between devotion to her art and to her daughter, a shattering story of a strained relationship, and a wonderfully observed look at a young woman coming into her own, weathering bumps along the way. This is a great film, not afraid to look in places most others ignore, terrified yet somewhat resigned to what it will find there.

Saw this ketchup packet on The Dieline. First, I think it's a great idea. Living in a place where you have to worry about landmines is absolutely terrible, so anything that can help to promote awareness and action is beneficial. Secondly, I thought it was rather interesting that you can donate money to the cause by texting. I know that you can text yourself a subscription to things like daily horoscopes, celebrity gossip daily or fart jokes, but this is the first time I've seen texting for donation, and I like it.

It is clear to Theun that HoloLens heralds a new era. "This new technology is cropping up everywhere – from healthcare to gaming and from industry to education and the sciences.. Soon our client will not just be selling machines and equipment, but, thanks to HoloLens, will have direct contact with their buyers, and will furthermore be collecting valuable data that will allow them to make their products even better."
YP Your Partner believes that the world would be a better place if technology could improve mutual cooperation between people in an sustainable and more efficient manner.

From urban recipes to collective architectures By Santiago Cirugeda, architect and founder of RECETAS URBANAS.
Prepare for the provocative story of an unconventional architect. Read his statement and wonder: "All the urban prescriptions showed next are public domain and may be used in all its strategic and juridical proceedings by citizens who may try out do it. Recommends a full research on the different urban locations and situations in which the citizen may want to intervene. Any physical or intellectual risk produced by such interventions will be on each citizen account".

Flemenstar Gold Cup dream on course
If there was an outcome to send connections of the two most exciting Irish-trained Gold Cup prospects home relatively happy from Punchestown, Flemenstar's straightforward defeat of Sir Des Champs was probably it.
At best, the John Durkan Memorial Chase had promised a pugilistic showdown between the two. At worst, one of them might have emerged with its dreams in tatters.
In the end, we got something in between, as Peter Casey's race-fit Flemenstar inflicted a first chasing defeat on Willie Mullins' reappearing six-year-old. With the field reduced to three after Bog Warrior's withdrawal, Andrew Lynch set out to make all on Flemenstar, which had eased slightly in the betting to go off evens favourite.
On heavy ground, the partnership jumped out in front in the €80,000 feature as Davy Russell tracked Rubi Light closely on Sir Des Champs. However, he was niggling away down the back, and it was a testament to Sir Des Champs' resolve that he was still in there pitching when he passed Rubi Light at the third-last. In contrast, though, Lynch had been motionless throughout.
On straightening up, he got after Flemenstar, prompting a telling burst that quickly put the race to bed, and popped the last to score by five lengths.
It was another superlative display that secured Flemenstar a third Grade One success. According to his popular veteran handler, all roads lead to the Cheltenham Gold Cup in March, though which particular path he takes there is unclear.
"He's a rare one," Casey beamed of Stephen Curran's gelding, "and he's still not ready. The Gold Cup is the main aim, as he's a lot more relaxed now. He'll probably go to Leopardstown for the Lexus Chase over Christmas, though whether that will come too soon or not, I don't know."
The Tubbertown handler also admitted that the three-mile chase at Cheltenham in January, formerly the Pillar Chase, was another option.
Flemenstar was cut from a high of 9/1 to as low as 4/1 joint-favourite for the March showpiece, while the runner-up was left unchanged at up to 7/1.
For Mullins' charge, beaten for a first time in eight starts, there might be more to come yet.
Russell relayed: "I'm not elated at finishing second, but I was happy with the way he jumped and finished his race. It's a starting point." Mullins was also philosophical, confirming that the Lexus, King George and Dial-A-Bet Chases were all options now.
On a day when the attendance grew 30pc to 3,150, the champion trainer departed with three odds-on winners, two of which were ridden by son Patrick. The 22-year-old is now just three shy of a 100-year-old amateur riders' record of 72 wins in a calendar year after taking the maiden hurdle on Archie O'Leary's Pride Of the Parish by 13 lengths, before Alan Potts' Sizing Tennessee landed the bumper in style.
In between, Paul Townend got a fine tune-out of Mikael D'Haguenet, as the former top-class hurdler left behind a string of hard-luck stories to break his duck over fences. "Finally," Mullins admitted after the eight-year-old denied Lord Windermere. "He is getting his act together, but we'll probably just try and find a winners' of one for him now."
Townend's first cousin Davy Condon was seen to good effect on Glenquest, which confirmed the promise of a third-place finish in the Troytown Chase to score for a first time in three years in the Weatherbys Ireland GSB Handicap Chase. Trained by Carrigtwohill-based Terence O'Brien, the blinkered 5/2 favourite made all before digging deep to repel the persistent challenge of De Dodger in the straight.
Earlier, Lynch initiated a double on the Henry de Bromhead-trained Too Scoops (6/1) in a Listed novice hurdle that was decimated by the loss of Shrapnel and Waaheb. In the Blue Square Handicap Hurdle, Oliver McKiernan's aptly named Happy New Year (13/2) obliged for a third time in two weeks under Shane Crimin.

I packed my bags and I didn't know why.
I left early on a Friday morning with no destination in mind but a heart wanting to explore.
No map and no idea, I just put the car into drive and waited for life to take me by the hand.
I followed this intuition of mine straight out of Sydney and past the chaos and busyness of the town.
I wound my way until I found open spaces, wider roads and even more smiles.
It was one of those magic days where the sunshine blasts through the windscreen and everything seems so much clearer as if you've just woken up and seen life for the first time.
I kept driving and the road curved even more deeply. Buildings turned to bushland and traffic chaos faded to silence.
Eventually an appealing turn-off appeared and there I drove until I found a gem like never, ever before. Wattamolla Beach; maybe you've heard of this place but for me, it was the first time.
I wandered down the dusty pathway and all I could hear was the crashing of the ocean.
The path weaved left and right until I stumbled out of the bush alcove and found … paradise. Not a soul in sight, and beautiful white sand like a deserted tropical island in the Bahamas.
I took my shoes off and walked around in the sand, the granules imprinting on the my soles of my feet.
The water begging for a swim but the cool Autumn air stopped my momentary dive into the water.
Instead, I found the silence and sat with every moment, feeling my soul coming back.
Piece by piece.
This wasn't the destination, just a detour.
I continued my journey, along the ocean road, with all the windows down and some epic Destiny's Child tune, purely because I'm obsessed with old school R & B.
I continued south and found a little town called Austinmere.
I felt like I'd found myself again.
I felt like I'd walked home.
I stayed for dinner at this open-air restaurant where new friends seemed like old ones, all the while sipping on red wine and listening to some sweet folk music.
And another piece of my soul re-emerged.
You see, the person I fell in love with on the weekend was me.
I listened to this heart of mine and followed it until the beats were pulsating loud enough to bring me back … to me.
And it was bliss.
I didn't want to leave.
So, if you are feeling a little stuck or have lost the lacklustre, take the day off and spend some time falling more in love with you.
It will be the best decision you'll have ever made.

A deep analysis of the Microsoft-Kidaro deal. What does it mean for VMware, Citrix and the industry?
Yesterday Microsoft bought desktop virtualization vendor Kidaro for an undisclosed amount (although rumors suggest as much as $100M). Kidaro makes virtualization software and management tools that "package" Windows desktop images into VMs that can run locally on users' computers.
Yesterday Microsoft bought desktop virtualization vendor Kidaro for an undisclosed amount (although rumors suggest as much as $100M). Kidaro makes virtualization software and management tools that "package" Windows desktop images into VMs that can run locally on users' computers. It's a lot like VMware's ACE product, although Kidaro has much better management capabilities.
First, why would anyone want this technology?
Kidaro is a desktop virtualization vendor, although not in the most traditional "VDI" sense. Whereas the de-facto definition of "VDI" means users connecting via server-based computing protocols to desktops running in a datacenter (VMs, blades, or Terminal Servers), a more broad (and more correct in my opinion) definition of "desktop virtualization" would include ANY technology that separates the OS image from the client computing device. Based on that definition, Kidaro (as well as OS streaming solutions like Citrix Provisioning Server) also play in the VDI space.
So Kidaro is a desktop virtualization vendor. In their system, a user's "desktop" is packaged up into a single file which includes the hypervisor, the Windows OS, applications, and settings. Then this single file can be ported / copied / streamed / executed from just about any computing device. The idea is the user can have an unmanaged computer, and they can visit a Kidaro-based portal and click a link to run their "desktop," which will copy / stream the Kidaro desktop down to their device. Alternatively the Kidaro desktop could be deployed via DVD or even USB stick. (The USB option is a cool concept. Instead of giving your employees PCs, just give them a stick. They can pop it into any Windows PC and run their completely locked-down and managed VM from anywhere. The hypervisor ensures a proper security barrier exists between the VM and the host.
Kidaro is perfect for the whole "Employee-owned PC" thing that I've written about in the past. It lets IT deliver a secure, controlled, locked-down desktop that also works offline (the big FAIL of traditional VDI so far), while leveraging many of the benefits of single-image control and per-user personalization and software streaming.
Note: Please please please remember that one of my "soap box" issues is that there is no single desktop delivery solution or technology that will EVER work for 100% of users. I think the future will see a blend of some local desktops and some remote, some shared (TS) and some single instance, some local apps and some streamed, some online and some offline. To me, the "holy grail" is not a single technology that can be used for all, but a single product (or suite) that's INTEGRATED that lets all of these various technologies work together to truly provide any app, to any device, over any connection. But that is still a dream at this point.
Why did Microsoft buy Kidaro?
The real reason? I think they're scared. They're scared of losing control of how Windows is used and deployed. Windows is [one of] Microsoft's cash cows. They will do anything to protect it. This is why they "pooh-poohed" virtualization until it was apparent that their competitors could actually slide in between Windows and the hardware and control how Windows worked. This is why they ignored application virtualization until they absolutely needed it to help Vista's sales.
I think Microsoft is truly starting to "get it" with regards to virtualization. I don't mean in the big ways because of stupid press releases with a million "look how cool we are" bullets. I mean in the little ways that are not obvious at first, like the fact that they combined the virtualization, SoftGrid, and Terminal Server MVPs into a single "virtualization" group. I think they're starting to finally understand that the world is changing, and if they want to continue to sell very high numbers of Vista licenses (and Software Assurance) to businesses, they have to change too.
So Microsoft has Terminal Services. They add all sorts of cool new features to it in Windows 2008. They buy SoftGrid. They buy Calista. They change their long-held licensing policy and start legally allowing people to run Vista in a VM.
If you take a step back and think about about the entire application and desktop delivery space, how many different technologies / techniques are there?
For desktops:
- Remote Terminal Server-based desktops
- Remote single-instance desktops (Blades or Vista / XP VMs)
- Streamed desktop disk images running locally on native hardware
- Desktop images running in VM wrappers on local hardware (This is what we're talking about in this article)
For applications:
- Traditionally-installed local applications
- Streamed / virtualized / isolated local applications
- Remote Terminal Server-based applications
- Remote single-instance based applications
If you look at these eight items, where does Microsoft play today? They have something to offer in most of these spaces. And the places they don't have, you can bet they will either (a) partner, (b) build / acquire this capability, or (Secret Option "C") partner until they decide the market is right, then buy a competitor the the company they've been partnering with up until that point.
Microsoft's strongest partner in this new age-y desktop and application delivery space is Citrix. Up until yesterday, Microsoft+Citrix could do 7 of the 8 things on that list. What was missing? Item # 4, "Desktop images running in VM wrappers on local hardware." Could Microsoft ignore that? Sure. Except for the fact that VMware had an offering (ACE), and VMware is Microsoft and Citrix's #1 competitor in this space.
(If it was so obvious, then where was my article about this two months ago? Um... It's around here somewhere I think! :) Ahh, hindsight! I'm an analyst, not a predictor of future trends apparently.) Regardless, you had to know something was coming in this space. There's just too much juice for Microsoft not to take a sip. (And then to punch and kick everyone else sipping from the same pitcher, and then to take over the juice factory and fruit growing operation, and then to offer people all the juice they want for $250 per year while stopping the sale of juice in one-off cartons.)
What Microsoft will do with Kidaro
Unlike the Calista aquisition (where Calista didn't actually have any shipping products), Kidaro has something for sale today. Microsoft is changing the name of the Kidaro product to "Microsoft Enterprise Desktop Virtualization," and instead of selling it as a stand-alone product, they're bundling with the "Microsoft Desktop Optimization Pack" (or "MDOP"). MDOP is sort of a random hodge-podge collection of cool software that Microsoft has bought from other companies over the years. As of now it includes:
- Microsoft SoftGrid Application Virtualization (SoftGrid)
- Microsoft System Center Desktop Error Monitoring
- Microsoft Asset Inventory Service (AssetMetrix)
- Microsoft Diagnostics and Recovery Toolset (Winternals Administator's Pak)
- Microsoft Advanced Group Policy Management (DesktopStandard GPOVault)
- And today, Microsoft Enterprise Desktop Virtualization (Kidaro)
The price of the MDOP is only $8 per user, so it's essentially free. The catch is that you can't just go out and buy an MDOP. It's only available for people to do a multi-year desktop software "lease" via Microsoft's Software Assurance program. And you can't just lease MDOP. You have to be paying for SA on desktops first, and then you can add-on MDOP. And if you ever stop paying, you lose access to these technologies and products. (With Windows 7 looking more and more like a 2010 release, you gotta have something to offer customers who pay for SA!)
Then again, if people are subscribing to SA with MDOP already, it's just another product for free!
(Thanks Tim for suggesting some clarifications to the MDOP description.)
How will this impact VMware?
Like I said, VMware has a product that competes with Kidaro: VMware ACE. It seems that Kidaro has more manageability than ACE, and with it being bundled into the MDOP, this could be trouble for them.
Rumors have been circulating that VMware was going to cancel ACE because it hasn't really taken off like they expected. (Of course virtual appliances haven't really taken off either, but this didn't stop them from dedicating a whole conference to them in France a few weeks ago, so who knows?) Will this speed ACE's demise, or will this "validate" the technology and reinvigorate those who like the concept but love VMware even more?
One of the coolest features of Kidaro is the ability to hide the desktop window of the guest OS, creating a very cool user experience where guest application windows run seamlessly within the host's desktop. This is a feature (called "Unity") that VMware offers in their Mac version of VMware Workstation (called "VMware Fusion). If VMware wants to keep ACE, they're going to need to create a Unity-like features.
More importantly, though, is that VMware also will need to do something to improve the administration and management experience of ACE. They need to make it just as simple and easy to deploy desktops via ACE as it is via VDM2. Actually, they should just combine these into a single product, allowing a single desktop image via a single management tool to be used for remote (VDI) and local (ACE) use.
How will this impact Citrix?
Some people have suggested that Citrix missed the boat on this--that Citrix should have bought Kidaro. But I don't think that's true. Citrix really has a lot of the elements they need to offer something similar. They have Provisioning Server which can stream images down to a workstation. They have some experience in Xen which can maybe be used to re-purpose the Xen hypervisor so it will run in Windows.
But most importantly, Citrix has a friendship with Microsoft. With Microsoft buying Kidaro, I think there's a plausible case to be made that now Citrix doesn't have to "worry" about ACE at all. They can let Microsoft roll-out Kidaro, and then Citrix can "embrace and extend" it by integrating with Provisioning Server, Citrix XenApp, etc. (Pete, when is Provisioning Server going to let users take images offline?)
If Microsoft really did pay $100M for Kidaro, then that's all the more reason that Citrix made the right move by letting them go to Microsoft.

Great food for thought! I am currently having a book I wrote ("co-authoring" w/ a client) edited by someone I don't know. As this is the client's choice, I am stuck with it, but am hoping that, as you so eloquently put it, this step is a necessary evil. Just wish I had more ability to ask those questions of her! Thanks for at least reminding me of the need for fresh eyes--even if they belong to a stranger!

This week's C&EN
Lots of neat tidbits in this week's C&EN:
1 comment:
Interesting petition. Some initial questions:ReplyDelete
(a) Who defines "conduct injurious to the SOCIETY"?
(b) Precisely whose interests are represented by "the SOCIETY"?
(c) Has the appearance of this petition been instigated by a specific case in mind?
Further questions come to mind, but those can wait until later.
