This trip was of a highly personal nature to me. The support, concern, and care given to me my by my host family will remain with me as long as I can imagine.
The hosts were unbelievably welcoming and supportive. Vilma's suggestions and Juan Carlos handy fix-it presence and Romi's compassionate conversations were priceless.
The home was filled with warmth despite the freezing weather!

Tap Night is shortly to embark on a chasing career and one of his options is Saturday's Markel Insurance Henry VIII Novices' Chase at Sandown.
The five-year-old gelding is Lucinda Russell's first horse for powerful owner JP McManus, who snapped him up after his victory in a handicap hurdle at Ayr last month.
He was capable of defeating Captain Conan in a Grade Two novice hurdle at Kelso last season, and Nicky Henderson's representative has been entered in the same race at the Esher course after his impressive chasing debut at Cheltenham.
"Everything's a bit up in the air at the moment - he's in all over the place, including over hurdles, but he's more likely to go chasing," said Russell.
"He has schooled well, and done nothing wrong so far. I might find him a beginners' chase somewhere instead, but we'll wait and see."
There are eight entries in the Grade One over two miles, including the top-class hurdler Overturn, who won well over course and distance a month ago but may need a different rider with his usual partner Jason Maguire set to be in action at Aintree.
Russell will certainly have a runner at Sandown on Friday, with Carlisle winner Bold Sir Brian engaged in the Sportingbet Future Stars Chase.
"He'll almost certainly go there," said the Kinross trainer.

'The Bachelor' Preview: Tearful Courtney Apologizes to Blakely in 'Women Tell All'
Being called the villain in "The Bachelor" season 16, Courtney Robertson looks remorseful in a preview for "Women Tell All" edition. In the newly released clip for the upcoming episode of the reality series, the model is confronted by Blakeley Shea for calling her a stripper on the show.
"Courtney, I just wish you'd retract the things you said about me," says Blakely who sits among the rejected girls. "You said I was a stripper on national television and it hurt my feelings." The ousted contestant is not happy when Courtney's gaze wanders while she's talking to her.
"Courtney, I'm trying to be nice to you and you're not even looking at me," Blakely snaps. "I wanted you to say, 'Blakeley, I really take that back ... and say, I'm sorry.' " Struggling to hold back tears, 28-year-old Courtney says, "I'm sorry. I take it all back."
Blakely, meanwhile, will have her own turn to get judged by the other ladies about her behavior during the "Bachelor" stint. Another ouster Samantha Levey complains, "Why are so many of us such good friends, yet you couldn't be friends?"
In her defense, Blakely says, "Because I'm a lot older than you and I'm more mature than you and I don't bother myself with small-minded people."
"The Bachelor: Women Tell All" will air on Monday, March 5 at 8 P.M. ET on ABC. A week later, Ben Flajnik will make his final decision between Courtney and Lindzi Cox in the season finale.

Supreme Court
RBI's rate gamble: Raghuram Rajan's master stroke defies all expectations
December 19, 2013
BY: Nirmal Jain, Chairman, India Infoline RBI governor's decision to refrain from a rate hike has been the most impressive one since he took charge. It is significant for being contrary to the popular opinion. The hike in interest rate was expected as inflation has been stubbornly high. Let us understand why it makes a lot of sense despite high inflation and desperate need to tame it. The primary contributor to price rise is food inflation which has been in double digits for 20 months now. The Achilles heel is vegetable prices, hurting the common man. The other large contributor to inflation has been fuel prices.
Procter & Gamble planning overseas reorganization: Report

Gambling emerging as a major passion in India; biz of casinos alone accounts for Rs 500 cr
October 12, 2013
Moinak Mitra , ET Bureau
NEW DELHI: This Diwali, expect fireworks 'across the board', literally. As the well-heeled and the not-so-well-heeled travel overseas, gambling is emerging as a major passion and casino destinations, the big draw. Even in their backyard, while some still indulge in the roll of the dice surreptitiously, new vistas of wager are opening up under state patronage across Goa, Sikkim and Daman. In India, the business of casinos alone accounts for Rs 500 crore in revenues, says Jaydev Mody, chairman of Delta Corp Ltd, the biggest organised casino operator in this neck of the woods, with three offshore casinos and two hotels in Goa and a planned casino and hotel in Daman.
Raghuram Rajan's rupee gamble may help lure $30 billion
September 6, 2013
Shilpy Sinha , ET Bureau
MUMBAI: Reserve Bank of India governor Raghuram Rajan's doubling of borrowing limits for banks and the easier norms to tap non-resident bonds may draw as much as $30 billion in the next three months, providing a much needed breather to fix the currency. Private banks such as ICICI , Axis and even the State Bank of India may be among the lenders which may use the window opened by the new governor to raise US dollars by bond sales which could fetch as much as $20 billion, said analysts.
Why Cadbury believes that its online gamble will pay off
August 21, 2013
Shephali Bhatt , ET Bureau
Hamilton Holt was right after all â€" nothing worthwhile comes easily. Which is why if you wanted a Cadbury Bournville back in 2008, you couldn't just buy it, you had to 'earn it'. It was the campaign that spurred the first big relaunch for the brand which had spent years as a niche product. Some even attributed its continued existence to sentimental reasons: Bournville is named after the site of the first large Cadbury factory and model village. In its revamped avatar , it aimed to appeal to sophisticated adults craving a premium dark chocolate experience.
Procter & Gamble consults legal eagles on Sebi's Gillette order

Procter & Gamble invests Rs 235 crore in Indian unit to match Unilever's reach
June 21, 2013
Sagar Malviya & Jwalit Vyas , ET Bureau
MUMBAI: Procter & Gamble, the world's largest consumer products company, has pumped Rs 235 crore into its unlisted Indian unit, perhaps one of the first investments by chairman and CEO AG Lafley , who was called out of retirement last month. In a board meet held last week, P&G Home Products, which sells Tide, Ariel and Pantene , passed a resolution to raise Rs 235 crore by issuing 34.6 lakh shares of Rs 10 each at a premium of Rs 760 to its parent company. Since October last, the Cincinnati-based parent company has invested Rs 998 crore in its Indian arm, including last week's fund infusion, as it tries to scale up its production and match rival Unilever's reach, especially in the hinterland.

Officer-involved shooting in Tempe, AZ as shooter barricaded himself in senior center and later died from gunshot wound
Wed, 27 Jul 2016 20:03 UTC
The police officer is okay, the department said. No residents have been hurt. Roads in the area have been shut down. Police appeared to have been responding to an armed robbery at a nearby Walgreens, according to KSAZ. The suspect was shot there.
A SWAT team has arrived on the scene.
Firefighters are also at the location to assist with elderly residents who have been evacuated from the senior center and into the heat, KSAZ reported. The current temperature is 102 degrees F, and feels like 106 degrees.
'The art of the deal': Trump campaign to be sued by Freedom Kids creator
Tue, 26 Jul 2016 23:24 UTC
Jeff Popick, creator of the musical act and father of the smallest Freedom Kid, told the Washington Post he plans to file a lawsuit against the Trump campaign for "violating its agreement with the group."
Popick had a verbal agreement to appear at a Trump rally in Pensacola, Florida in January. He originally proposed the show opener be slated for two rallies, but when one never materialized, Popick requested $2,500 for the performance in Pensacola. The campaign counter-offered, suggesting a table for the group to pre-sell their albums, to which Popick agreed.
When they arrived to perform, however, there was no table. Popick described the scene as "complete chaos," adding "they clearly had made no provisions for that."
Welsh teen beaten, starved and held captive in Saudi Arabia by her father
Wed, 27 Jul 2016 16:27 UTC
Amina al-Jeffrey, now aged 21, was born in Swansea but was allegedly sent to Saudi Arabia aged 16 because her father did not approve of her lifestyle, according to the Times.
She has reportedly been held captive in Jeddah ever since and her father will not allow her to marry a man of her choice, a family division of the High Court heard.
Al-Jeffrey holds dual British and Saudi Arabian citizenship. As British law has no power in Saudi Arabia, and as she is now an adult, it is unclear how any ruling would be applied.
Saudi authorities would not recognize her British citizenship, a spokesperson for the forced marriage unit of the Foreign Office told the newspaper, adding "steps need to be taken to ensure Amina is returned to the UK where her safety can be guaranteed."
Prosecutors drop all remaining charges against cops indicted in death of Freddie Gray
Wed, 27 Jul 2016 16:22 UTC
The decision was announced by the Baltmore City State's Attorney's Office on Wednesday morning during a motions hearing for Officer Garrett Miller. Officer William Porter was to set be retried in September, and Sgt. Alicia White was scheduled for trial in October.
The dismissal of the charges wrap up one of the highest-profile criminal cases in Baltimore history, with prosecutors winning no convictions against any of the six officers indicted for their alleged role in the death of Freddie Gray.
The remaining trials would have been presided over Circuit Judge Barry G. Williams, who had previously acquitted Officers Edward Nero, Caesar Goodson and Brian Rice in bench trials in May, June and July, respectively.
Gray, a black man, was arrested on the morning of April 12, 2015, after he ran from police officers who were on bicycles. His wrists and legs were shackled, and he was loaded into a police van without seat-belted in. During the ride to the police station, Gray fell and suffered from a spiral injury that led to his death in the hospital a week later.
Would-be Reagan assassin John Hinckley Jr. to be freed from psychiatric hospital after 35 years
Spencer S. Hsu and Ann E. Marimow
The Washington Post
Wed, 27 Jul 2016 16:01 UTC
The Washington Post
Wed, 27 Jul 2016 16:01 UTC
Hinckley, 61, no longer poses a danger to himself or others and will be freed to live full-time with his mother in Williamsburg, Va., effective as soon as Aug. 5 subject to dozens of temporary treatment and monitoring conditions, U.S. District Judge Paul L Friedman of Washington wrote.
If Hinckley adheres to all restrictions, they could begin to be phased out after 12 to 18 months, removing him from court control for the first time since he was confined to St. Elizabeth's hospital after the shooting, according to the order.
79-year-old woman raped by refugee at German cemetery

The victim, a 79-year-old boarder of a nursing home, was provided first aid before being transferred to a medical facility for treatment. She was released from the hospital on Tuesday. The pensioner is known to visit the cemetery fairly regularly to mourn her long-dead sister, Bild reported.
The alleged perpetrator, who has been living in Germany since 2013, was charged with rape by the prosecution and placed into custody for the course of the investigation, the prosecutor's office of Munster and police for the district of Steinfurt, where the town is located, said in a joint statement. Before being arrested, the suspect was staying at a refugee shelter in the nearby town of Horstel. The assailant did not resist the police as they arrived at the scene early on Sunday morning. He faces up to 15 years behind bars if found guilty.
A wave of sexually-related offences in Germany has triggered immense public outrage and forced authorities to review existing anti-rape laws. The most notorious incident took place during this year's New Year's Eve celebrations in Cologne, where wide-scale sexual assaults took place.
Comment: The new law, while it may encourage victims to come forth that may have been intimidated by having to provide proof of resistance, opens the door for unsubstantiated convictions of migrants and refugees. Slippery slope.
SITE Intel Group says 'ISIS' warns London 'next to be attacked'

London is on the next list of target cities for twisted jihadis, it has been claimed.
Images threatening attacks in London and other major world capitals have been posted on messaging app Telegram, according to analysts at SITE Intelligence Group.
Comment: SITE Intel Group quite often has an all-too-direct "link-up" with ISIS scare-mongering terror threats and their related media. That's because SITE is most certainly the propaganda arm of those intelligence agencies, military groups and government apparatchiks who are actually behind the West's 'war of terror'. No doubt that even if we can expect to see more terror events in the places predicted to receive them, its because SITE was either informed of it by the psychos, or the psychos committing them are following the narrative presented and "creating the reality" that's already been broadcasted by groups like SITE.

Tokyo Electric Power Company Holdings (Tepco) has reached out to San Francisco software development company Niantic and the Tokyo-based Pokémon Company in an attempt to get them to prevent monsters from appearing in areas radioactively affected by the Fukushima nuclear meltdown of 2011.
Although so far, no game-playing trespassers have yet been reported onsite in Tepco's three major power plants (one being the dangerous Fukushima No. 1, damaged by a catastrophic earthquake), Japanese officials nonetheless became worried that they would see straying gamers attempt to catch virtual reality monsters in dangerous radiation zones after three teenagers found their way inside an Ohio plant.
Although a spokesperson for Tepco would not comment as to whether any Pokémon had been found in any nuclear facilities, The Japan Times reports that "Pokemon characters did pop up inside the compounds of some Tepco nuclear plants."
Comment: You would think that people would have enough sense to not play in radioactive areas, but it is apparent that minds are shutting off left and right, paying no attention to reality whatsoever.

Cloud computing is one of the emerging paradigms in today's computing world. One of the main advantages of migrating to the cloud is its elastic nature. Elasticity allows dynamic provisioning and de-provisioning of resources according to the application's workload requirement.
In a traditional on-premise J2EE infrastructure, information about the application server and web server resources are available during deployment. Clustering of such an infrastructure to achieve scalability is much simpler since the information about resources is known beforehand. But in a cloud environment, because of its elastic nature, resources get provisioned and de-provisioned dynamically based on the workload. So a j2ee cloud environment has challenges like reconfiguring automatically for the addition/removal of application server instances to/from the cluster. One solution from the open source space is to use Apache Httpd web server with mod_cluster load balancing module and JBoss application server.
The article will discuss the features of mod_cluster which enable it to operate in a cloud environment and also the steps to set up a highly scalable J2EE cloud environment in your lab.
Introduction to mod_cluster
mod_cluster is an extension of the Apache httpd mod_proxy load balancing module and can balance http requests across multiple instances of JBoss Application Server, JBoss Web standalone, or Tomcat. The unique feature of mod_cluster is that once the initial configuration is done, there is no need of any manual configuration changes for adding or removing JBoss AS or Tomcat instances.
mod_cluster uses two communication channels for its working. It uses ajp, http or https to forward requests from httpd to one of the application server nodes. The backward channel is used by the application server nodes to send server side information to the httpd side and is the key differentiator for mod_cluster with respect to other load balancing modules. This channel sends real time information about load balancing factors for each node and application life cycle events.
Some of the key features of mod_cluster that enable it to be used in cloud environments are
Dynamic configuration
Common httpd based load balancers like mod_jk and mod_proxy require the configuration of workers (application servers) at the httpd side. So if you want to add a new worker, you will have to change the configuration in httpd side and restart the proxy. This is an overhead in case of large or dynamically varying clusters like in cloud environments.
But with mod_cluster the proxy information is maintained in the application server side through a static list or through the advertise mechanism (using mod_advertise) . As the workers start, the listeners receive multicast pings which contain the host and port information about the proxies. Now the workers can send events to the detected proxies and the proxies auto configure themselves to balance request between the nodes.
Dynamic determination of load balancing factor
In common httpd based load balancers, the ratio in which load is distributed among the workers is determined by a static factor we provide at the httpd load balancer configuration. But in the case of mod_cluster the load balancing factor is determined at the application server side based on the real time values monitored at runtime. Load computation is pluggable and you can write your own LoadMetric based on the metric you want in addition to the default load metrics.
Fine grained web application life cycle
In the case of mod_cluster, the applications deployed in the application server side are registered with the httpd side through the Mod-Cluster Management protocol. So the http side has information about which all applications are deployed in which instances and transfers the requests only to the nodes which have the requested application. Since the proxies have information on the applications deployed on each of the workers, we can keep highly sensitive applications on our private cloud and move lesser critical applications to some public provider. This enables us to scale up without compromising security as the data sensitive applications will be in our local premises only . For example in a shopping cart scenario browsing the catalog can go into the public cloud and sensitive requirements like payments can stay in company's private cloud.
The following section describes how we can set up a highly scalable j2ee environment using vmware(or any other private cloud solution like Eucalyptus or Open Nebula) in your lab setup.
Environment Set-Up
We have VMware vCenter server setup in one of the machines and connected to an ESXi host. The discussion is based on the assumption that the reader knows how to create a virtual machine and install guest operating system in a vmware environment. Our virtual machine has CENTOS 5.4 installed in it.
To set up dynamic cluster in cloud, we need minimum of two instances:
- Apache httpd + mod_cluster
- JBoss 5.1 application server with mod_cluster
Now we can look into creating each of these images/templates with necessary startup scripts in details. These steps can be done in any of the CentOS 5 installed machine or virtual machines.
Creating Apache httpd image
Step 1. Create a base virtual machine with centos 5.x as the guest operating system.
Refer creating a virtual machine and installing guest os for VMWare virtual machine creation.
Step 2. Install Apache httpd and mod_cluster in the virtual machine
Download the apache httpd integrated with latest mod_cluster distribution here. To install httpd with mod_cluster, move the distribution to the vm and extract mod_cluster-1.1.xxx-linux2-x86-ssl.tar.gz file using the following command
tar xvf mod-cluster-1.1.0.xxx-linux2-x86-ssl.tar.gz
This by default installs httpd with required mod_cluster modules in /opt/jboss directory.
Step 3. Configuring mod_cluster at httpd side
The httpd configuration file will be httpd.conf which is located in /opt/JBoss/httpd/httpd/conf. From mod_cluster1.1.0CR2 mod_cluster comes with some quick start values.
LoadModule proxy_module modules/mod_proxy.so
LoadModule proxy_ajp_module modules/mod_proxy_ajp.so
LoadModule slotmem_module modules/mod_slotmem.so
LoadModule manager_module modules/mod_manager.so
LoadModule proxy_cluster_module modules/mod_proxy_cluster.so
LoadModule advertise_module modules/mod_advertise.so
The above configuration specifies the extra modules required for httpd with mod_cluster. If you are adding mod_cluster to the existing httpd installation, you have to download the modules and add the above configuration to httpd.conf file.
# Adjust to you hostname and subnet.
<IfModule manager_module>
Listen *:6666
ManagerBalancerName mycluster
<VirtualHost *:6666>
<Directory />
Order deny,allow
Deny from none
Allow from all
KeepAliveTimeout 300
MaxKeepAliveRequests 0
#ServerAdvertise on http:[email protected]@:6666
AdvertiseFrequency 5
#AdvertiseSecurityKey secret
#AdvertiseGroup @ADVIP@:23364
<Location /mod_cluster_manager>
SetHandler mod_cluster-manager
Order deny,allow
Deny from none
Allow from all
Customize the above configuration for your own needs as this is not suitable for production environment.
Step 4. Starting httpd at boot up
We need the httpd to be up and running when the machines boots up. To achieve this we have to expose httpd as a service through init scripts.
The below script can be used to start and stop httpd at boot up.
# chkconfig: - 64 36
# description: Apache Start|Restart|Stop Web Server
case "$1" in
echo "Starting Apache ..."
# Change the location to your specific location
$APACHE_HOME/sbin/apachectl start
echo "Stopping Apache ..."
# Change the location to your specific location
$APACHE_HOME/sbin/apachectl stop
echo "Restarting Apache gracefully..."
# Change the location to your specific location
$APACHE_HOME/sbin/apachectl graceful
echo "Restarting Apache ..."
# Change the location to your specific location
$APACHE_HOME/sbin/apachectl restart
echo "Usage: '$0' {start|stop|restart|graceful}" >&2
exit 64
exit 0
Copy the above script to /etc/init.d/httpd file or write your own startup script for apache httpd.
Give the file execute permission
chmod +x /etc/init.d/httpd
Add httpd as service at required run levels
chkconf -add httpd
chkconfig -level 345 httpd on
Now to test the set up try
service httpd start
Starting httpd: [ OK ]
Try http://[ip]:[mod_clusterport]/mod_cluster_manager in the browser.
You should be able to see the following window
Step 5. Convert virtual machine to template
To avoid repeating the same steps for creating httpd virtual machine, you can create the clone of the vm. For vmware powerOff the virtual machine and clone it to template
Now we will look into how to create the jboss image.
Creating JBoss image
Step 1. Create the Centos vm
Refer image creation for httpd
Step 2. Install Java
You can get the latest Java from the following location and the second link explains steps for java installation.
Step 3. Installing JBoss AS with mod_cluster
We are using JBoss 5.1GA which can be obtained here. Let $JBOSS_HOME is the JBoss installation directory. For installing jBoss AS simply extract the downloaded tar file.
For the demo JBOSS_HOME = /home /JBoss-5.1.0.GA
Download the latest java bundles for mod_cluster here. mod_cluster 1.1.0 work with with JBoss AS 5.1 with out of box.Extract the mod_cluster-1.1.0.xxx-bin.tar.gz file and copy the mod_cluster.sar to the deploy folder.
tar xvf mod_cluster-1.1.0.CR3-bin.tar.gz
cp -r /tmp/mod_cluster.sar $JBOSS_HOME/server/all/deploy
Assuming you have extracted to /tmp directory
cp -r /tmp/mod_cluster.sar $JBOSS_HOME/server/all/deploy
Step 4. Configuration
The main configuration file is mod_cluster-JBoss-beans.xml under
$JBOSS_HOME /server/all/deploy/ mod_cluster.sar/ META-INF/
By default mod_cluster is configured to work in clustered mode. In clustered mode, a single JBoss node is responsible for providing the entire cluster view to the front-end httpd processes. The default configuration uses advertise mechanism using the mod_advertise module.
Step 5. JBoss as a service at startup
Execute the following commands to add new user jboss and give the startup file execute permission.
#create and give permissions to user jboss
adduser jboss
chown -Rf jboss.jboss /$JBOSS_HOME
#copy the default startup script to /etc/init.d
cd /$JBOSS_HOME /bin
cp JBoss_init_redhat.sh /etc/init.d/jboss
chmod +x /etc/init.d/jboss
Modify the /etc/init.d/jboss file to point JBOSS_HOME and JAVAPTH to point to the actual installed directories.
# chkconfig: - 35 90
# description: JBoss Start|Restart|Stop Application Server
# pidfile: /var/run/JBoss.pid
#define the user under which JBoss will run, or use 'RUNASIS' to run as the current user
#make sure java is in your path
JAVAPTH=${JAVAPTH:-"jdk installation folder "}
#configuration to use, usually one of 'minimal', 'default', 'all'
#if JBOSS_HOST specified, use -b to bind JBoss services to that address
IP="" # store IP
case $OS in
Linux) IP=`ifconfig eth0| grep 'inet addr:'| grep -v '127.0.0.1' | cut -d: -f2 | awk '{ print $1}'`;;
FreeBSD|OpenBSD) IP=`ifconfig eth0 | grep -E 'inet.[0-9]' | grep -v '127.0.0.1' | awk '{ print $2}'` ;;
SunOS) IP=`ifconfig -a eth0 | grep inet | grep -v '127.0.0.1' | awk '{ print $2} '` ;;
*) IP="Unknown";;
#Bind to the current ip address
JBOSS_BIND_ADDR=${JBOSS_HOST:+"-b $JBOSS_HOST"}
The above modification is to bind jboss to the ip address of the jboss instance.
To add jboss as a service at startup,
#command to start jboss at runlevel 3,4 and 5
chkconfig --add jboss
chkconfig --level 345 jboss on
service jboss start
Check in the browser if JBoss is started
Step 6. Convert vm to template
For vmware powerOff the virtual machine and clone it to template.
Testing the environment
Create virtual machines from the above created templates using vijava api or vCenter client. After one instance of both apache httpd and jboss got powered on, check the mod_cluster_manager using the url,
We can see that the JBoss worker is balanced by the mod_cluster. If we create one more JBoss instance, the new one will get added to that balancer. So if you have an application deployed on both of the JBoss instances, the requests will be distributed across the JBoss instances. Similarly when you start up new JBoss instances, the instances will get registered automatically to the proxy and become available for load balancing.If we kill a JBoss instance that will automatically get de-registered from the proxy balancer.
Set up in an environment where multicast is not supported
The above setup showed mod_cluster configuration using advertise mechanism, which uses muticast pings for auto discovery. But major cloud providers like Amazon EC2, Rackspace, GoGrid etc doesn't support multicast in their environment. To overcome this, information about the proxies can be passed through an JBoss argument (JBoss.mod_cluster.proxyList) at start instance up or use the addProxy method exposed by mod_cluster through JMX. The addProxy method takes the IP of httpd proxy and the port on which mod_cluster is listening. You can go to the JBoss AS JMX-Console to do this or use the java code to invoke this method remotely.
To disable the advertise mechanism following configuration changes need to be done :
At httpd side : Set the ServerAdvertise property to off in httpd.conf config file in /opt/JBoss/httpd/httpd/conf
ServerAdvertise off
At JBoss Side : Set advertise property in ModClusterConfig bean to false in mod_cluster-JBoss-beans.xml under $JBOSS_HOME /server/all/deploy/ mod_cluster.sar/ META-INF/
<property name="advertise">false</property>
After setting these properties, create virtual machines from the templates. We can see in the mod_cluster_manger of the apache instance that that jboss node is not added. Now we have to add the proxy instance to the jboss mod_cluster configuration through JMX. The following code snippet can be used to add a proxy to the balancer.
Hashtable contextProps = new Hashtable();
contextProps.put("java.naming.factory.initial"," org.JBoss.naming.HttpNamingContextFactory");
contextProps.put("java.naming.provider.url", http://+JBossinstanceip+":8080/invoker/JNDIFactory");
contextProps.put("java.naming.factory.url.pkgs", "org.JBoss.naming.client");
InitialContext ctx = new InitialContext(contextProps); // From table
MBeanServerConnection server = (MBeanServerConnection) ctx.lookup("jmx/invoker/RMIAdaptor");
Object op = server.invoke(new ObjectName("JBoss.web:service=ModCluster"), "addProxy", new Object[]{webServerIP,webServermod_clusterPort},new String[]{"java.lang.String","int"} );
Now if you check the mod_cluster_manager we can see that the jboss node now balanced by mod_cluster.
With capabilities like dynamic addition of workers without any configuration changes, knowledge of deployed applications and calculation of the real time load balancing factor based on different metrics , it is certain that mod_cluster is the future of load balancer modules for apache and it will also have a huge impact in the cloud environment.
I wanted to gather all of my Internet of Things (IOT) blogs into a single blog (that I could later use with my University of San Francisco (USF) Big Data "MBA" course). However as I started to pull these blogs together, I realized that my IOT discussion lacked a vision; it lacked an end point towards which an organization could drive their IOT envisioning, proof of value, app dev, data engineering and data science efforts. And I think that the IOT end point is really quite simple…

Cory Gearrin's presence on the 40-man roster should aid his cause to get one of the remaining spots.
While Bethancourt was not projected to be a part of the Opening Day roster, the highly-regarded prospect could make his way to Atlanta if Evan Gattis' offensive production is adversely affected in a starting role.
Bethancourt's strong arm has allowed him to stand as one of the game's top catching prospects. But scouts have continued to question his work ethic behind the plate and his offensive potential.
Vasquez and Jaime were the only members of this optioned quintet who seemingly had legitimate aspirations to be on the Opening Day roster. But the two hard-throwing right-handed relievers sealed their fate during Wednesday's game against the Yankees.
Jaime walked four of the five batters he faced, and Vasquez continued to show the rust that developed when he was sidelined during the early weeks of Spring Training because of a strained right lat muscle.
But as he surrendered a hit and issued two walks in his one-inning stint against the Yankees, Vasquez provided indication he is moving in the right direction. The fastball he produces with his sidearm delivery touches 95 mph. If he harnesses his command and continues producing similar velocity, he could eventually end up in Atlanta's bullpen.
Craig Kimbrel, Luis Avilan, Jordan Walden, David Carpenter and Anthony Varvaro currently stand as the only relievers who are seemingly guaranteed an Opening Day roster spot.
Left-hander Ryan Buchter and right-hander Gus Schlosser stand as the two other most likely candidates to get one of the final spots in this 'pen, which could consist of eight relievers as the Braves go through their first eight to 10 games using a four-man starting rotation. But Wren will continue to look at external options via potential trades or waiver wire deals.

The Volvo V40 is ideal for a small family. It has a sharp design with great styling and easy ride quality. The Volvo V40 has great handling and ability to move around bends with minimal body roll. Its sporty image and safety features are a big attraction to family oriented sports car enthusiasts. A premium car cover from CARiD would benefit your Volvo greatly. Car covers are manufactured to safeguard vehicles under indoor storage conditions as well as those parked under the open skies. The indoor car covers safeguard your vehicle from damage and deterioration caused by dust, scratches and theft. These car covers are soft and luscious. They come in all sorts of styles and colors to suit different tastes and preferences. Outdoor car covers on the other hand protect your vehicle from the adverse effects of rough weather. They also have a silver coating to reflect the harsh UV rays of the sun.
Volvo V40 car covers utilize a full-length fabric to ensure no leakages occur at any point of the fabric. In addition, manufacturers add a double seam to reinforce the main seam and to prevent leakage in case the main seam fails to hold. Car covers are made waterproof. They repel rot and mildew contamination. They also prevent the 'greenhouse' effect from occurring by allowing the evaporation of moisture and heat into the atmosphere. Car covers from CARiD are famous for their durability. They come with a limited warranty guaranteeing against defects in quality of materials and workmanship. The manufacturers undertake to replace or repair the car covers provided they were under normal usage during the warranty period. Before purchasing a car cover, consider your storage requirements and the weather patterns of your location. Then talk to a sales representative from CARiD who will guide you in making your selection.
Guides & Articles
- Bed AccessoriesPickup Truck Cab And Bed Sizes Are Important When Selecting AccessoriesAmericans love to have choices. Buying a dress shirt? Decide solid or stripe, short or long sleeve, cotton or poly blend, button or spread collar, regular fit, slim fit, or big & tall. How about a meal at your favorite steak house? Will it be porterhouse, T-bone, or sirloin? Cooked rare, medium-rare, or medium? With baked, mashed, or French fried potatoes? Thirsty for a fancy cup of coffee? Let's not even get started on options that let you end up with a "grande caramel macchiato with 1% low-fat milk, 2 Splendas, and an extra espresso shot".
- Car CoversShould I Get a Custom-Fit or a Universal Car Cover?Just as with an indoor cover, if you regularly drive your car you'll want a cover that is light and easy to handle, whereas a cover for long term storage can be heavier. If you live in a rainy humid region you'll want a cover that sheds water, dries quickly and is breathable so moisture can escape. Areas with intense sunlight will require a cover with maximum UV protection.

Nokelainen is dealt to Phoenix
The Ducks capped a wild day for themselves before the NHL trade deadline as they traded center Petteri Nokelainen to Phoenix for a sixth-round pick in this year's entry draft.
Nokelainen, 24, had four goals and seven assists in 50 games this season but also had a minus-7 rating and had played his way out of the lineup. He was scratched in seven of the Ducks' last 10 games before the Olympic break.
