McKesson adopts Red Hat Enterprise Healthcare Platform
October 16, 2007
Customer: McKesson Provider Technologies
Integrate disparate software applications on one unified platform to provide a comprehensive solution to improve patient care
Red Hat Enterprise Healthcare Platform: Red Hat Enterprise Linux, Red Hat Network, JBoss Enterprise Middleware Suite, and Hibernate,McKesson healthcare solutions, Oracle RAC
Intel dual and quad-core Xeon server platforms
Gained huge efficiencies, saved customers up to one million dollars in total cost of ownership, and provided a reliable, enterprise-ready solution that helps provide high-quality patient care
McKesson Provider Technologies is a $2.6 billion division of McKesson Corporation, the world's largest healthcare IT services company specializing in the development of healthcare systems, distribution of pharmaceuticals and medical supplies, and disease management solutions. McKesson Corporation, currently ranked 18th on the FORTUNE 500, is dedicated to helping its customers deliver high-quality healthcare by reducing costs, streamlining processes, and improving the quality and safety of patient care. McKesson has grown by providing pharmaceutical and medical-surgical supply management across the spectrum of care; healthcare information technology for hospitals, physicians, homecare and payors; hospital and retail pharmacy automation; and services for manufacturers and payors designed to improve outcomes for patients.
McKesson Provider Technologies wanted to create a comprehensive underlying architecture for its clinical information systems that support a full range of patient care and administrative processes within a healthcare organization. To address evolving requirements over the years, however, McKesson had developed a number of different applications, built on several different architecture platforms. "We wanted to improve the integration between these systems and reduce the cost of ownership and system management for our customers. To do this, we needed to create one enterprise architecture strategy," said Michael J. Simpson, Senior Vice President and General Manager for McKesson's Horizon Clinicals suite of solutions.
As a component of integrating its patient care software onto one platform, McKesson decided to migrate from mainframe Unix to Linux. The healthcare community had been using Unix for 20 years, so McKesson had to educate its customers on the support, efficiency, and ROI benefits of Linux. The company needed a highly reliable, scalable, and cost-effective solution to assure a risk-averse customer base that migrating from a known system and process would maintain the levels of mission-critical reliability required for patient care.
Prior to this project, McKesson was already employing Red Hat solutions in specific areas throughout the company. "Red Hat had become the standard Linux solution among our employees and had always provided cost-effective ways to implement customer solutions quickly. We knew we wanted to leverage Red Hat's excellent support and high performance for this project," said Simpson.
Working with Red Hat, McKesson became the first company to adopt the Red Hat Enterprise Healthcare Platform, a new solution featuring Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL), Red Hat Network, and JBoss Enterprise Middleware Suite. "We chose Red Hat Enterprise Healthcare Platform because it provides a high-value open platform specifically designed to meet the missioncritical demands of healthcare IT," he said.
Using the solutions within the Red Hat Enterprise Healthcare Platform, McKesson was able to integrate the many healthcare applications it provides to its customers on a single middletier architecture. The flexibility of the Red Hat and JBoss solutions enabled the company to leverage all of its existing software and hardware and contributed to lowering the total cost of ownership for McKesson's healthcare organization customers. In addition, The Red Hat Enterprise Healthcare Platform was optimized for the Intel dual and quad-core Xeon server platform, enabling McKesson to adopt an affordable, highperformance architecture for its customers.
To support a wide range of hospitals and healthcare providers of different sizes and with varying hardware, McKesson runs a variety of configurations of Oracle on RHEL in the database tier. For each hospital, McKesson also operates between five and 90 application servers running Red Hat Enterprise Linux, JBoss Enterprise Middleware Suite, and Hibernate.
As a result of implementing the Red Hat Enterprise Healthcare Platform, McKesson was able to realize tremendous cost-savings on behalf of its customers. "Migrating to Red Hat enabled us to lower the total cost of ownership for our solutions significantly. We've saved customers in large mainframe environments up to a million dollars in combined software and hardware costs," said Simpson. Red Hat's dedicated customer support and services also helped improve McKesson's customer relationships. In one instance, Red Hat flew its engineers to a McKesson customer location to provide on-site help. And JBoss solved one technical issue within two days, a vast improvement over the four-month turnaround time the company had experienced previously with a competitor.
Migrating to Red Hat enabled us to lower the total cost of ownership for our solutions significantly. We've saved customers in large mainframe environments up to a million dollars in combined software and hardware costs. Michael J. Simpson, Senior Vice President and General Manager for McKesson's Horizon Clinicals suite of solutions
Red Hat solutions enabled McKesson to gain significant efficiencies in product development and testing. Prior to implementing Red Hat, McKesson supported multiple variants of Unix, which caused the company to spend time and resources testing products on each individual system. Red Hat eliminated the need for McKesson to buy mainframes to test its products on a wide range of systems. Now, the company only tests on one system, and all of its engineers speak a common Linux language across the organization. This has resulted in enormous productivity and cost savings, enabling McKesson to re-provision its resources more effectively.
Finally, the reliability of the Red Hat Enterprise Healthcare Platform enables McKesson to support its customers' delivery of safe, high-quality patient care. "Our healthcare customers depend on our solutions to care for patients 24/7. They require highly reliable systems with highly responsive support, and the Red Hat Enterprise Healthcare Platform fits seamlessly with our commitment to product quality and customer service," said Simpson. "Red Hat is designed to provide a very flexible approach to business continuity, giving us the mission-critical reliability we need for patient care at a much lower cost," he said.

By Tom Precious
ALBANY –- Gov. Andrew Cuomo has tapped a former top spokeswoman at NBC Universal as his new communications chief.
Allison Gollust will replace Richard Bamberger, who first began with Cuomo when the governor was state attorney general. Bamberger, a Westchester County resident, is leaving for an undetermined job in the private sector.
Gollust began her career as a television reporter and producer in Denver and served as spokeswoman for Major League Soccer. She was head of communications at NBC News from 2005 to 2009, and served as chief spokeswoman for its various network channels. Her other NBC jobs included being a publicist for the Today show. Her last title with the company was executive vice president of corporate communications at NBC Universal.
The Cuomo administration did not immediately release salary information for Gollust, who lives in New York City.
UPDATE: Gollust will make $169,100; officials say it is the same salary as Bamberger is paid.

Do you like camouflage? Are you aiming to trick out your PlayStation 3 controller in camo? Then the Subsonic Pro Controller Camo Edition might be just for you.
The Subsonic Pro Controller Camo Edition has a "soft touch finish" that feels slightly rubbery which gives it a good grip. The review unit I was sent had a small chunk of plastic on the left grip. Kind of like a leftover mold edge that didn't quite get snapped of in manufacturing. I easily removed it making the surface smooth.
The analog sticks have the same "soft touch finish" as the body while the buttons, triggers, and D-pad are all have a normal plastic finish. The analog sticks have some raised bumps that help grab your thumbs. The L2/R2 trigger buttons have a slight hook curve that also help with grip and provide a comfortable feel. Overall this allows your hands to find their natural position.
The Subsonic Pro Controller Camo Edition is a wireless controller that connects to your PlayStation 3 via a USB dongle. Normally I'm a bit wary of wireless connection like this because various wireless mice I have used in the past have not always stayed connected or had a slight delay reaction. The Pro Controller did not suffer from any delay and the only time it disconnected was during a long cut scene. It has a built in battery saving function that shuts off the controller after five minutes of inactivity.
The buttons all functioned as they should, no problems found here. I really liked that slight hook that the trigger buttons have. It didn't feel like my fingers would slip off and made the pull of the button better.
The vibration/rumble function felt much like any other controller. It worked with no problem.
There is one drawback, no Sixaxis tilt function.
The battery is a built-in rechargeable Lithium-Ion battery. The Subsonic Pro Controller Camo Edition gives about the same amount of play time as the standard Sony DualShock 3 controller. The controller number and battery indicator lights are around the Home button. They work just like the indicator lights on the Dualshock 3 controller and are in a much better place.
To charge the battery the Subsonic Pro Controller Camo Edition uses the same USB cable that came with the PlayStation 3. It takes about the same amount of time too.
Overall the Subsonic Pro Controller Camo Edition is a good controller for the PlayStation 3. I really like the grip and feel, it was very comfortable. The lack of tilt function might be a problem for some people, but I can't remember the last time I played a game that needed it.
The only other thing that I find bothersome about the controller was the sticker on the bottom for the model number, FCC logos, etc. When it started peeling up I found myself absent-mindedly picking at it. No a big deal, I'll probably pull it off at some point.
The Subsonic Pro Controller Camo Edition is a fine controller. Not quite a full replacement for the Dualshock 3 since it lacks the Sixaxis tilt function, but that function seems to fallen by the wayside for most games. Unless the tilt function is important to you, I can recommend the Subsonic Pro Controller Camo Edition as a good controller to buy.
For more information on the Subsonic Pro Controller Camo Edition see their web site.

Leonard A. Lauder, Chairman Emeritus of The Estée Lauder Companies, Inc. has donated more than 35,500 Raphael Tuck & Sons Oilette postcards to the Lake County Discovery Museum's Curt Teich Postcard Archives. The donation, valued at about $260,000, includes funding for the storage, preservation, cataloging, and digitization of the postcards.
The Teich Archives is a world renowned collection of postcards and materials relating to their production dating from the 1890s to the present. The Teich Archives is used daily by researchers for a variety of projects including restoration of historical buildings and landscaping, scholarly papers, genealogy, elementary and high school history fairs, and as illustrations in textbooks, advertisements, magazines, and newspapers.
"Mr. Lauder's generous gift significantly enhances the holdings of the Curt Teich Postcard Archives. His desire to also support cataloging and digitizing the Tuck postcards will allow full public access to this rare collection," said Ann Maine, President of the Lake County Forest Preserves. "It will be exciting to put the collection on exhibition when the museum moves to its new home in Libertyville."
About the Collection
Raphael Tuck & Sons began operating in England in 1866, and the company started printing picture postcards in 1894. The Oilette series of postcards, introduced in 1903, were the work of many different artists employed by the company and encompassed a great variety of subject matter. In their catalogs, Tuck described Oilettes as "veritable miniature oil paintings."
Leonard A. Lauder, a well-known philanthropist and businessman, began collecting postcards at the age of eight. His first purchase was a postcard of the Empire State Building, which he followed by amassing a collection of Art Deco postcards acquired from hotel lobbies in Miami Beach, Florida. As trustee and Chairman Emeritus of the Whitney Museum of American Art, Lauder is aware of the need for preserving works of art in any format.
The Tuck Oilette postcard collection is part of a larger collection amassed by Lauder over nearly 50 years of collecting. The donation of Oilettes to the Teich Archives enhances its holdings by providing access to another genre of postcard history.
This information was provied by a press release from the Lake County Discovery Museum.

PORTLAND, Ore. -- It steals your speech, scrambles your thoughts and robs you of your ability to move. Stroke is the third leading cause of death in America and the number one cause of disability. Now, some stroke victims are turning to song to get their voices back.
Different stroke patients, similar stories.
"I woke up and I was numb on one side," said Barbara Pope.
"I cannot move my right arm," said Lee Jordan.
"It's all in there, it's in there, but I can't have it outlet," Phil Liu.
A stroke left Liu unable to speak.
"The only word I could say was yes," Liu said.
Music got him talking again. Patients at the Oregon Stroke Center gather each week to sing. New research suggests singing or playing music, maybe even just hearing it, helps rewire the brain after a stroke.
"Music is represented more in the right side of the brain in most people, and language more on the left side," said Helmi Lutsep, MD, Professor of Neurology at the Oregon Health & Science University.
Doctors are trying to use music to move language skills from one side of the brain to the other.
"Maybe we can allow language also to, um, sort of rewire itself," Dr. Lutsep said.
And it may never be too late.
"We've done trials with people as late as 17 years out from their stroke and they still showed improvement," Dr. Lutsep explained.
New studies out of Temple University found that music not only affects a person's motor abilities, but also lowered stroke patients' blood pressure, heart rate, and level of anxiety.

Got myself a Korean DVD (probably bootleg) of this live-action film based on the Production I.G. animated short. I loved the anime, so I was really hoping to like this new movie. I have to say, as biased as I was, I really enjoyed it! It was shot mostly in English, and the large cast of American actors playing the inhabitants of the U.S. Army base in the movie were actually decent actors, instead of the usual Godzilla-movie-bad variety. The film did a good job of taking the promising beginning that the anime gave and creating a larger story from it without getting too confusing. Jeon Ji-hyun (aka Gianna for U.S. audiences) as Sawa the ageless demon-hunter was believeable as a cool calm undead-asskicker, though the swordplay scenes didn't always giver her a chance to prove it. The CGI was very hit-or-miss...the creatures were cheesy, but the gore and bloodsprays were stylish and pretty. One action scene that was particularly enjoyable was a swordfight on a truck as it falls down a ravine. Overall, a fun time!

I am not a huge fan of anime or cartoon type movies, so I haven't seen many. The original Heavy Metal is really cool, I watched one called Barefoot Gen, it was about the bombings at Nagasaki and Hiroshima. It had lots of gore and radiation aftermath on people. it was a very good movie if you haven't seen it, check it out, it is a good watch. check ya later

No more anime to live action movies. Blood was a classic anime with great design and attention to detail. The movie was garbage. especially the blood scenes.

I prepared two of these casseroles and used flavored croutons. I prepared one and immediately baked it and the other I let sit over night. The one that sat over night was superior by far! It had a ton more flavor. I also chose to add a little more milk and a few extra eggs to the one I let sit overnight. Also added extra cheese. You can never have enought cheese.
Ok, here goes. I love, love, love this, however, my family is trying to eat healthier so I made some changes. First I omitted the butter entirely and used 1 egg plus 1 1/2 cups Egg Beaters. I used half regular cheese and half fat free cheese, fat free croutons and 1/2 C lower sodium, real bacon bits. I prepared it the night before and cooked for about an hour in a 9x13 pan and did not adjust the milk at all. It turned out wonderful (not soggy) and this altered version is so much healthier. I got 8 servings and froze some so I coukd just pull them out of the freezer and reheat in the microwave for a midweek breakfast. They reheated wonderfully in the microwave. Thank you so much!
I am testing out brunch recipes for the party I am having New Year's Eve and husband and I both agreed that this was very good. I chose this one over the other bacon/sausage casseroles because of the ingredients that I felt would give it more flavor......i.e. the flavored croutons and mustard. What a great touch! I used caesar salad croutons since thats what I had. I halved the recipe, however, since it was just hubby and I and made it in an 8x8 pan. Perfect for half the ingredients, which leads me to agree with another reviewer.....if making the full recipe in a 9x13, you should do 1.5 times the recipe, otherwise it will be a bit flat. At first I thought the bacon was too much, even at 6 slices for halved recipe, but it was perfect! I used red pepper since hubby doesn't like green.......has a very nice presentation and slices up well. Oh I still had to cook the full 40 min. even though I halved the recipe. Very tasty! Thanks for sharing. Unless I find a better one, this will make an appearance at the party.

text: FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:Adventures in Travel Expo Expands Brand to Showcase Full Spectrum of Travel Offerings as Show Series Growth ContinuesNew Show Name Incorporates 'Travel & Adventure' to Better Reflect Travelers' Expanded Interest in Authentic Travel Experiences November 20, 2009, Milford, CT – Adventures in Travel Expo, the longest running series of consumer travel events in the United States, and co-producers of the USA's largest Travel Show, The LA Times Travel & Adventure Show, announced today its plans to expand its events, now to be called the Travel & Adventure Shows with a supporting tagline branded "The Show for REAL Travelers".This brand change reflects the show's evolution from an Adventure Travel Show in its early years to a "Travel Showcase" focused on bringing together worldwide destinations who offer authentic and experiential vacations. The growing trend of experiential travel has affected every aspect of consumer travel with an increasing number of tour operators, destinations, hotels, resorts and attractions adding authentic itinerary options to their vacation packages."Our efforts in re-branding the LA Times Travel & Adventure Show just a few years ago resulted in that events' largest period of growth. Based on those results, it is a natural progression for our events to follow suit so we can meet the expectations of our high-value travel customers," said John Golicz, CEO of Unicomm. "Most of the destinations and tour operators who support our shows encompass a wide range of product offerings, and this new positioning will allow them to market all their vacation options to our growing attendee base and realize an even higher ROI on that participation." "This is a positive change for an already successful series of travel shows. The Caribbean countries that have typically supported the events can now expand their presence and exhibit more of its unique offerings," said Fernando Abreu, Deputy Director of Marketing at the Caribbean Tourist Organization. While the name is changing, the focus on marketing and selling is the same. "The show will continue to deliver qualified travelers and be a great source for short and long term leads and bookings—all in a professionally run environment," said Chris Wayne, Vice President, Exhibitor Development.About The Travel & Adventure Show The Travel & Adventure Shows, formerly the Adventures in Travel Expos (ATE), are the leading consumer travel shows in the United States. In 2010, the shows will be presented in four U.S. cities: Los Angeles, February 13-14; Washington, DC, March 6-7; Chicago, March 20-21; and New York City, October 9-10.

A fire that "severely damaged" a mobile home Thursday was caused by a gas leak in a wall furnace, fire officials determined.
"Just by looking at it, you could tell that's what happened," Glasgow Fire Department Chief Tony Atwood said. "It was definitely gas-fed."
The two nuts that held the hose on were loose, so it had developed a small leak in it probably, and then it likely got bumped, he said.
Although he wasn't working on that specific part of the furnace, George Yates, the only resident at home at the time, had said he had just replaced the blower motor when the fire started.
"The lucky part was the fire started right there where the gas was. If it had had a chance to leak and fill the place up (with gas) and then spark, that's probably what would have happened," Atwood said, explaining why there was not an explosion resulting from the fire.
For the full story, see the print or e-edition of Friday's Glasgow Daily Times.

---- — PLATTSBURGH — Social Security Disability benefits don't necessarily end when a person goes back to work.
That's one message in an upcoming beneficiary outreach event that will explain the Social Security Administration's Ticket to Work program, which assists people who receive Social Security Disability benefits as they try to return to the workforce.
Locally, the OneWorkSource office is an employment network that works with the Social Security Administration to provide free Ticket to Work support. There are three local disability resource coordinators at OneWorkSource centers — Chelsea Scheefer in Plattsburgh, Melissa Barcomb in Malone and Thomas Pooler in Elizabethtown.
"I like to help people think about their ability, to think about what they can do, rather than what they can't do," Scheefer said.
She said the process starts with a Benefit Planning Query, which is an in-depth look at an individual's story.
It can be scary for people to start back to work for fear it will put their benefits at risk, Scheefer said.
In part, that can be because the process of getting those benefits is long and difficult, and a person who wants to return to work may fear what might happen should his or her effort not prove successful.
By meeting with a disability resource coordinator, a person can determine if it is possible to become financially independent or how a return to work would affect benefit payments.
In some instances, they can continue to receive benefits even as they work. Each person's story can be very complex, with many layers, so the intensive support the disability resource coordinator can provide can be crucial.
Barcomb said part of their mandate is to continue to provide support for participants for at least five years.
"The bottom line is to find success for that person," she said.
The disability resource coordinators can also provide assistance such as career counseling, job search assistance, help with resume writing and interview skills, referral to community resources and Social Security Disability Insurance advisement. The coordinators can even interact with employers to help them work with employees who participate in the program.
Barcomb said that individuals with disabilities who are willing to help themselves will find there are plenty of people willing to help them.
Scheefer said she thinks the region is open and accepting of those with disabilities.
"The first step is to represent yourself," she said.
Anyone between 18 and 64 who receives Social Security Disability Insurance or Supplemental Security Income because of a disability is eligible to participate in the Ticket to Work program.
It is also available through Behavioral Health Services North and Access VR (formerly VESID). Scheefer said they can refer people to one of the other agencies if that seems a better fit.
Email Dan Heath: email@example.com
The Social Security Administration's Ticket to Work program will be explained at a free beneficiary outreach event set for 10 a.m. to noon Wednesday, Nov. 28, at OneWorkSource, 194 U.S. Oval, Plattsburgh.
For more information, call Chelsea Scheefer at 561-0430, Ext. 3032. Additional information is also available at http://tinyurl.com/aw447mu.

West Coast Ports
West Coast Ports
Productivity is the name of the game for West Coast ports leading up to the expansion of the Panama Canal in 2015. Unlike many of the ports on the East and Gulf coasts that are deepening their harbors and enlarging their marine terminals to prepare for the mega-ships that will begin transiting the canal in 2015, the major West Coast gateways already have 50-foot harbors and terminals of 100 to more than 400 acres in size.
In order to prevent an erosion of market share to East Coast ports, the Seattle-Tacoma, Oakland and Los Angeles-Long Beach gateways must improve their efficiency in unloading vessels, moving containers through the yards and expediting the departure of containers by truck and intermodal rail.
The 25 to 26 container moves per crane per hour that mark West Coast port operations must be increased to at least 30 moves per hour. Terminal operators are exploring options for automating yard, gate and on-dock rail operations. The busiest terminals will invest in costly equipment such as dual-hoist cranes, automated guided vehicles and automated stacking cranes. The ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach, which together handle about 40 percent of U.S. imports from Asia, will spend more than $7 billion in the coming decade on larger, more efficient terminals and improved connectivity to rail and highway networks.
Offering a transit time advantage of a week to 10 days to the U.S. interior, and the potential for reducing per-slot vessel costs by hundreds of dollars with the arrival of vessels having a capacity of 13,000-TEU capacity, West Coast ports want to beat the canal by even further expanding their 70 percent market share of U.S. imports from Asia.

News & Analysis
Shippers are breathing a sigh of relief because there haven't been any major disruptions at U.S. West Coast ports, nearly a month after a brief extension of the contract between the International Longshore and Warehouse Union and employers represented by the Pacific Maritime Association expired. Both sides seem to understand that a shutdown of any kind wouldn't be in their best interest.

The AU Students in Free Enterprise (SIFE) team recently finished as First Runner-up in the Regional SIFE Competition in Cincinnati. SIFE is an international organization found on more than 1,500 campuses in 37 countries. Students gather annually to present to a team of business personalities (judges) what they have accomplished throughout the year. Regional competitions are held throughout the country. Yearly, around 450 teams compete at the regional level for a chance to travel to Kansas City for the national competition.
The AU SIFE team focused this year on changing Anderson. With projects like CYNCY (Cheat Your Neighbor Cheat Yourself) and OUCH!, SIFE taught students from elementary to high schools free enterprise principles about credit card debt, theft, and trade.
"After winning regionals and going to nationals five years in a row, one would think that we should be disappointed that we are not going this year." said Dr. Mike Wiese, Sam Walton Fellow for AU SIFE and professor of Business at Adnerson University. "We are not," he continued. "The SIFE presentation team did a great job at regionals. A decision was made to use this year to position SIFE for the future. Because of our decision we are in a fantastic place to really serve our community and to give students an educational opportunity that is truly special."
VP of Competition, Beth Smith, echoed his sentiments. "The competition in Cincinnati was a great success," she said. "Although we didn't receive the ranking we hoped for, the whole team did a fantastic job!"
AU SIFE will receive $7,500 for the next three years through resources from Lilly Endowment, Inc., to AU. The Anderson University proposal approved by Lilly Endowment was entitled, "INvision AU," and designed to provide students more opportunities and incentives to keep them in Indiana upon graduation. The grant comes from the endowment's recent "Initiative to Promote Opportunity through Educational Collaborations." Through the grant, the AU SIFE team is restructuring and planning on a much bigger ideas for future years.
"I'm really looking forward to next year with all of our new opportunities," said Smith. "I know we will shine at regionals and nationals, next year."
Anderson University is a private, four-year, Christian liberal arts institution of approximately 2,600 undergraduate and graduate students. Established in 1917 by the Church of God, the university offers more than 60 undergraduate majors and graduate programs in business, nursing, education and theology. The Falls School of Business at Anderson University is one of the institution's largest academic units offering eight undergraduate majors as well as MBA and DBA programs.
— Writer Andrew Rosenberg is a student at Anderson University and a member of SIFE

In a year when manufacturing continued to lead the economic rebound, it makes sense that plant manager bonuses rebounded. Plant Engineering's annual Salary Survey shows both wages and bonuses rose in 2012 after a retreat the year before.
Average salary across all job titles for plant floor management rose 3.5% to $95,446, and bonus compensation jumped to $15,162, a 4.2% increase from the 2010 level and double the 2011 total, which showed a sharp drop in bonus.

Parrot 1.0 Said to Speak Your Virtual Language
After years of development, version 1.0 of the Parrot virtual machine has arrived for Perl, Python and other dynamic languages. Whether the Parrot will take a firm foothold in software development is still up in the air.
Success will come to those who wait, if indeed Parrot 1.0 delivers what it promises. Over the years it has been securing a reputation ever closer to that of GNU Hurd or Duke Nukem -- a lot of hot air. Most of the time we've heard more about worn out project managers than actual successes.
It all started with an April Fool's joke in 2001 that announced that the competing Python and Perl programming languages were merging into a Frankenstein-like monster named "Parrot." The prank then took off in seriousness and Parrot morphed into a project that implemented a virtual machine not only based on Perl and Python, but optimized for all sorts of other languages. For this purpose the VM should also support operations to implement language constructs such as closures and continuations, unlike, for example, Java VM.
Not all promises were kept, as is clear from the current list of Parrot-based language implementations. Some are, in fact, not implementations at all, but are marked "dormant" and may never emerge from that state. Officially Parrot 1.0 supports Python, Ruby and Perl 6, as well as the less known APL (A Programming Language). The Subversion repository currently has about an additional 20 more or less widespread languages.
Parrot 1.0 relies on a stable API that should theoretically help in getting the virtual machine word out. In practice, however, Parrot has recently got some competition from .NET Mono and even Java VM has shown some improvements. Finally, Dalvik, the Google Android VM with the same register-based technology, has shown some recent strides to give Parrot additional competition. Who knows, maybe the polyglot Parrot will find its eventual niche in the free software ecosystem, as long as it finds enough users.
Parrot 1.0 Said to Speak Your Virtual LanguageTo say that Parrot "officially" support Python, Ruby, Perl 6 and APL is simply not correct: Parrot provide an infrastructure for people wanting to implement a compiler for high level languages. Parrot have been designed principally to responds to the needs of implementors wanting to develop dynamically typed languages (like Perl 6, Ruby or Python), but if you really want it to, you can also implement statically typed languages as well, even if it is not optimised for that
Historically, proof of concept high level language implementations developped for pre version of parrot were on the same repository but most of languages supported by their implementors have now "left the nest" and are now maintained in their respective repositories. The few languages left in the subversion repository are mainly just proof of concept languages without maintainers.
As parrot has just recently reach the 1.0 mark, the state of the current high level language implementations should not be used as a metrix for measuring the maturity of the parrot project itself.

Is it too early for the Twins to panic?
by, 04-10-2012 at 02:46 PM (635 Views)
After dropping the home opener 5-1 to the Angels, the Twins find themselves as the only American League team without a win this season. Yes, it has only been 4 games. Twins manager Ron Gardenhire is quick to remind the media and fans of that however, is it too early to panic? This author thinks that the panic button should be pushed and pushed hard right now.
In 2011, the Twins began the season 1-3 on their way to a 63-99 record. While a teams record through 4 games is hardly indicative how the season will go, there are other reasons to be concerned for the Twins already.
The main Twins website at www.twinsbaseball.com featured an article today entitled Twins stymied by Wilson, drop home opener. Solid article followed by fan/reader commentary that spelled out perfectly the reasons why it is time to panic.
One readers comments concerning the lack of passion being shown by the players particularly stood out. There is no urgency in the eyes and demeanor of the players in the field nor coming from their manager. If you hit a ground ball in the infield, you run it out with everything you have. You never know if they will throw the ball away or the first basemen will drop it. The starting pitchers look complacent and act as though theyre just trying to make it through their start so they can sit down again and watch. Playing with passion would mean going all out on every pitch, being fired up and getting on your team when they arent playing well. The Twins havent exhibited one ounce of passion yet this year. One would think that they would be excited to be on the field again??? Maybe there is a reason why they arent.
The Twins offense sputtered again last night, this time against C.J. Wilson. The Twins recorded no fly ball outs through 8 innings in the home opener. For 4 straight games, Minnesota has been beating the ball into the ground with nary a batter appearing to want to drive the ball. Justin Morneau and Josh Willingham have been driving the ball well in the early on however they are the only ones. Where does the blame lie for the stagnant offense? Gardenhire says that things arent clicking yet for everyone. Well no kidding. What is the problem? Some fingers have begun to point at Joe Vavra however the blame should not rest on him alone. Many fans have commented on the fact that Twins hitters are not trying to hit the ball hard, preferring to hit for contact rather than being aggressive and getting an extra base hit or even just getting the ball off the ground in the Twins case. Passive approaches at the plate are not going to win the Twins many games this year. Big swinging clubs such as the Detroit Tigers and the Chicago White Sox will wipe the floor with the Twins if their approach doesnt change. The Twins need to be aggressive at the plateswing at the first pitch if it is down the middle (Joe Mauer!), look to drive the ball (Denard Span!). Something needs to change in the offensive approach for the Twins, their lackadaisical hitting isnt going to win them any support. The fans need something to look forward to when watching games. Happy fans buy tickets. Angry fans dont.

The water inlet valve is an electrically controlled water valve. When it is new, the water inlet valve is very quiet. Over time, the diaphragm inside the valve deteriorates and deforms. This deformation interacts with the water rushing in and can cause a loud vibration, buzzing, squealing or other noises. If the dishwasher is loud during the filling cycle, replacing the water inlet valve may solve the problem.

2 workers shoulder blame for 2010 BP oil disasterBy MICHAEL KUNZELMAN
The Associated Press | November 20,2012NEW ORLEANS Federal authorities have blamed two rig supervisors for the deaths of 11 workers killed when the Deepwater Horizon exploded and spawned BPs massive oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico, even though a string of investigations spread fault among a host of people and companies.
A federal indictment last week charged Robert Kaluza and Donald Vidrine with manslaughter, accusing them of botching a crucial safety test. But a defense attorney claims the two BP well site leaders are scapegoats, given that other government probes have concluded the disaster resulted from a complex web of mistakes and a corporate culture that placed profits ahead of safety.
One expert speculated the Justice Department probably took aim at targets higher up BPs corporate ladder before charging Kaluza and Vidrine.
Either there simply isnt evidence that anybody higher up was involved, or the department has concluded the only way its going to make its case against more senior corporate officers is if it charges and eventually obtains cooperation from Vidrine and Kaluza, said David Uhlmann, a University of Michigan law professor and former chief of the Justice Departments environmental crimes section.
Although London-based BP PLC has agreed to plead guilty to charges related to the workers deaths, none of the companys onshore engineers or executives is accused of wrongdoing in the indictment unsealed last Thursday. Former BP executive David Rainey was charged separately with withholding information about the spill from Congress, but the allegations against him arent related to the causes of the blowout.
Shaun Clarke, one of Kaluzas attorneys, said the narrow focus of his clients indictment doesnt jibe with the widely accepted conclusion that multiple failures at multiple levels in multiple companies led to the blowout.
It would have taken a lot of courage after spending three years and tens of millions of dollars investigating to go back to the White House and say, You know, Mr. President, we cant really find a person to blame. Instead, they decided to scapegoat two people who were just out on the rig doing their jobs, Clarke said.
Natural Resources Defense Council president Frances Beinecke, who served on a presidential commission charged with investigating the explosion and subsequent spill, said the disaster resulted from systemic failures that raised concerns about the entire drilling industrys safety culture.
You can fault two people for this accident, but you cannot leave it there, she said. You have to look at whats happening throughout this industry.
That commission concluded the blowout was the product of several individual missteps and oversights by BP, rig owner Transocean Ltd. and cement contractor Halliburton, with mistakes made both on the rig and onshore. The panel also found that government regulators lacked the authority, resources and technical expertise to prevent the mistakes from occurring.
Though it is tempting to single out one crucial misstep or point the finger at one bad actor as the cause of the Deepwater Horizon explosion, any such explanation provides a dangerously incomplete picture of what happened encouraging the very kind of complacency that led to the accident in the first place, the commissions January 2011 report says.
As well site leaders, Kaluza and Vidrine were the highest-ranking BP supervisors on the rig, each having four decades of experience in the oil patch.
Vidrine, 65, was on duty at the time of the April 20, 2010, explosion. Kaluza, 62, was filling in for another well site leader and had been on the rig only a few days before the blowout. He was in bed at the time of the blast.
The case against Kaluza and Vidrine centers on their roles in supervising negative testing, which is designed to assess whether a cement barrier is effectively preventing oil or gas from flowing up the well.
The indictment says they had multiple indications from the negative testing that the well wasnt secure. Yet they allegedly failed to alert onshore engineers about the problems during the testing, accepted a nonsensical explanation for abnormal pressure readings and eventually decided to stop investigating.
When another rig worker attributed the pressure readings to a so-called bladder effect, Vidrine and Kaluza accepted that explanation.
This explanation was scientifically illogical and was not recognized within the deepwater oil exploration industry, the indictment says.
Uhlmann said its understandable that prosecutors would focus on the well site leaders conduct because they were in charge of rig operations. However, he said the indictment could send a troubling message that the failures were limited to actions on the rig and not at higher levels of the company.
Corporate culture and management policies are created far above the well site leaders, he said.MORE IN Wire NewsBENGHAZI, Libya Islamic hard-line militias, including the group accused by the United States...

Every season at i9 Sports, we start off the year with a parents meeting to inform parents about various parts of the program. This year, I started telling a story that I thought was pretty telling about who REALLY cares as one team wins, and one team loses.
Last spring, at the i9 Sports Marlborough flag football program, the Pee Wee division (4-6 year olds) were playing for the championship in their last game of the season. The entire game was neck in neck, and it became clear that it would probably go into overtime.
We've never had an overtime game at i9 Sports (we only play OT in the playoffs) so as the game was winding down, I had to brush up on the overtime rules just to make sure I knew the ins and outs before the extra timeframe.
As the game went into overtime, both teams went back and forth a few times and another team started driving down the field (our rules are similar to the NFL rules before this season, where the first team who scores wins). Eventually, a boy who was five or six ran into the end zone for the game winning core.
From where I ws standing, I had the perfect visual of the two groups celebrating the team's win.
The child, who was the "hero" that scored the game-winning TD, handed the ball back to the ref and went over to his coach like nothing happened. At that split second the parents of the kis on the team were jumping up and down and giving each other high fives and cheering about the victory, and the season championship.
Once again:
Child who scored the game-winning TD: no reaction, gives ball back to ref and goes the the coach
Parents: Celebrating the score and the championship
So, next time you think that the kids are the ones who really care about winning, just keep in mind, to them it's probably just a game. To the parents, maybe, it matters a lot more.

Authorities in Tucson say a 2-year-old boy is safe after being abducted.
A Pima County sheriff's spokesman says King Gomez was abducted Tuesday by a group of people that included several relatives of the boy, including the boy's biological father, Luis Ernesto Soberanes; the child's maternal grandmother, Guadelupe Legarda; and the child's maternal aunt, Fernanda Mendoza.
Deputy Tom Peine says the boy was located Tuesday evening after the biological father called authorities to disclose the boy's location.
Soberanes turned himself in Wednesday and was booked into the county jail on charges of kidnapping, custodial interference and burglary.

Happy Monday. The Sabres are expected to be off today following back-to-back games over the weekend, including the end of a seven-game road trip. So we'll start with your usual look around the NHL, starting right here in the B-lo with the death of Rick Martin:
*Rick Martin became part of Buffalo lore because of his athletic talents. He was one-third of the most fabled line in Sabres history, and his scoring ability created fans and admirers.
It was away from the rink, however, where Martin really made an impression on Western New Yorkers. The fun-loving Quebec native took time to talk with fans when he played in the 1970s, and the long chats continued after his retirement, when he chose to stay in the area. He was quick with a joke, often told in the relaxed setting of a tavern, golf course or autograph session.
If there was a party, Martin was usually the life of it.
That was the Martin that Mike Robitaille chose to remember Sunday while mourning the death of his former teammate. Martin died Sunday afternoon at age 59 while driving in Clarence, a sudden death that brought tears to eyes throughout HSBC Arena and the area.
"What are we doing being so emotional when what he stands for is to have fun and laugh?" Robitaille said prior to the Sabres' home game against Ottawa. "Man, we should have the biggest party in the world for Richard. If he was in this situation, he'd have it for himself."
*Jerry Sullivan writes that losing Martin, the greatest pure goal scorer in Sabres history, is a death in the family of Buffalo hockey. It comes at an especially emotional time for Sabres fans, whose hopes have been soaring since Terry Pegula bought the team three weeks ago and declared that winning the Stanley Cup was his sole driving ambition.
Martin was a wondrous talent who scored 44 goals as a rookie and averaged 47 goals over his first five seasons. He touched the community with his charity work and his lively personality in charity golf outings. Apparently, he didn't know how to say no.
"Oh, God. Most everything I asked him to do, he did for free," said Larry Playfair, the longtime head of the Sabres Alumni. "He was the life of the party. Everybody wanted him in the tournament, and everybody wanted to play with him."
"It's too bad," French Connection linemate Rene Robert said. "Pegula had just put us together. He told us that night, 'Now you're going to be here until you die.' I tell you, I'm speechless. When you play that long with two guys, they're family. At least there was time to bring us all back together one more time."
*Paul Gaustad knew a lot of people in Sabreland were hurting Sunday following the death of team legend Rick Martin. Gaustad figured, aside from Martin's family, the Buffalo coaching staff might be grieving most. Lindy Ruff played with Martin and has been his friend, golf buddy and co-worker for 32 years. Martin spent time as an assistant on Ruff's coaching staff in 2003.
So while Gaustad's teammates were at one end of the HSBC Arena ice celebrating a 6-4 victory over Ottawa, the center skated to the opposite end to retrieve the game puck. It was presented to the coaching staff to bring a few smiles on an otherwise sad day.
"It was for Rico," Gaustad said. "It's a tough loss for the Sabres. I thought we responded well to it, but it's just a sad day for the Sabres."
The Sabres, playing their first home game since Feb. 26, skated to center ice following the victory and raised their sticks toward Martin's banner in the rafters in a sign of tribute and condolence.
"It was important for us to do that," forward Tyler Ennis said. "He was an unbelievable player, one of the best Sabres to ever play, so we just had to honor him."
*The News has compiled a photo gallery of Martin through the years.
*Concussions will be on the minds of the National Hockey League's general managers when they meet for three days starting today in Florida.
"If you listen to the media and read the papers north of the border, there's tremendous pressure to at least revisit [the subject of reducing head injuries in the game]," Sabres General Manager Darcy Regier said. "I think we're going to have to do that."
Regier says the discussion will try to stick to the facts at hand as a starting point.
"You have 30 general mangers with differing views," he said. "One of the things the league has done is bring a lot of factual information in to have a conversation, versus guys saying, 'I think it's this.' The league has done a very good job in that regard. There are equipment issues. Those things will be discussed."
*The Maine Hockey Journal writes that in the battle for first place in the Atlantic Division, the Portland Pirates will be welcoming some much needed time off.
The Pirates, who are playing a season-high 15 games in the month of March, including this current stretch of six games in nine nights, simply ran out of gas, falling to the Manchester Monarchs, 4-2, in front of 5,487 at the Cumberland County Civic Center on Sunday afternoon.

JOPLIN, Mo. —
As drum major Asa Hamilton called the Joplin North Middle School Band to attention at 24th and Main streets, a tuba player was missing — he was searching with a flashlight for a lost mouthpiece in a nearby vacant lot.
Whether he found it in time to play "Feliz Navidad" in the annual Joplin Christmas Parade or whether his tuba was silent for the duration is anyone's guess, but the band marched as planned and at the judge's station at Sixth and Main streets drew loud cheers from spectators.
The band was one of 150 entries in this year's version of the Joplin Jaycees' annual parade, with many entries that each featured a slightly different mode of transportation. There were gymnasts with The Flip Shop who walked down Main Street on their hands for the majority of the route, and there was Sabrina Purkey and Amber Truitt rolling along in their shabby chic "Two Friends & Junk" entry — a 1969 pink Chevrolet truck pulling a 1968 Scotty camper.
A dozen women with Mo-Kan Roller Derby Girlz each used eight wheels to traverse Main Street from 24th to First Street, and then sprinted back to where they parked for a distance of four miles.
"This is awesome!" a few yelled as they passed.
Austin Gilbert, a member of the Missouri Southern State University cheerleading squad, traveled the parade from a Flip Shop trampoline on a flatbed truck and reached heights of about 20 feet.
In front of the Frisco Building, he went beyond the traffic lights, and nearly reached the second story.
"Oh no — oh my — oh — wow!" said spectator Brenda Wright nervously from the curb, worried that he'd go over the edge. It was the Webb City woman's first time in attendance.
"I came with my husband, Ron, to see my daughter, son-in-law and grandchildren ride on a float for Burkhart Construction," she said. "They'll be coming any minute."
