What do we want from BAM/SAM?Gary Brown Mar 14, 2012 11:04 AM
Having the infrastructure to collect activity information and present it to IT and business users is all very well - but we also need to consider what information to present, and in what way.
Monitoring low level activity will generate a large amount of data. To make this information useful, we need to understand in what ways it should be correlated and filtered, to avoid overwhelming users, but at the same time ensure they are actively notified when situations of interest occur.
So does this imply that all we really need is notifications? Possibly - being emailed or SMS'd when a warning or alert has occurred could be a useful way to inform the relevant people of actions that need to be taken. These notifications could also be used to trigger automated actions. However care must also be taken with this approach, as when situations go bad, sending out thousands of notifications (texts, emails, etc) can add to the problems.
Notifications are fine for known situations of interest, and have the benefit of not requiring a user to constantly monitor a UI - but what about new situations (ad hoc) that need to be investigated, or when a user receiving a notification needs to delve into the details of the issue?
So we come back to some form of UI - which presents the problem of how do users navigate the large quantity of information. As a by-product of some of the analysis, high level correlation may have derived some abstractions that could be useful (e.g. conversation, transaction, etc) but what abstractions are the most useful? Even with higher level abstractions, there are still potentially many thousands (or hundreds of thousands) of instances of these abstractions to deal with - so how will a user find the information of interest.
This is the problem we need to tackle. Suggestions welcome
1. Re: What do we want from BAM/SAM?Rob Cernich Mar 14, 2012 12:01 PM (in response to Gary Brown)
Hey Gary,
I've mentioned this before, but it seemed like the old Eclipse TPTP project had some good ideas. Specifially, the common base event model seemed like a good basis for defining events that could be correlated across servers and processes. The tools project also supported event filtering and pattern recognition (i.e. problem diagnoses could be generated for event chains matching certain patterns). I know the project is stagnant, but maybe there's something useful there, if only ideas.
That said, it sounds like the other side of the problem is how to aggregate all that data into something a user can process quickly and easily. Stream based processing might be useful for aggregating certain aspects of the data over time. Those aggregators could themselves feed other stream processors that could eventually present the user with a distilled view of what is going on. Assuming all of the events are persisted, the user should easily be able to drill into a specific subset of data that relates to the distilled information.
So, back to your question, what does that processing chain look like? Hmm...
Not sure if this is useful or not.
2. Re: What do we want from BAM/SAM?Gary Brown Mar 14, 2012 12:37 PM (in response to Rob Cernich)
Hi Rob
Yes I think the TPTP model could provide some useful guidance on a model, and the techniques you mention will be useful in processing the data.
I guess what I was looking for is more from the top down - wanting potential users of the technology, or consultants that deal with such users (and therefore have a good understanding of their requirements), to provide the "what", so that we can work out the "how" later
3. Re: What do we want from BAM/SAM?Gary Brown Mar 15, 2012 1:25 PM (in response to Gary Brown)
Exploring this idea of drilling down into the information in more detail, we can broadly consider there to be three levels of interest, (1) Business, (2) Service and (3) IT.
I think the only important layer is (1), as layers (2) and (3) are ultimately just there to support (1), which generates the revenue for the business. So although each layer will have its 'administrators' who are concerned with managing that layer, it may be useful to initially explore this area from the top layer down.
So first issue is, what proportion of an organisation's "business processes" are manageable based on some form of structured definition? By that I mean where the execution of the business process can be traced through a set of co-operating systems, to enable them to be monitored and reasoned over. If an organisation doesn't function through the use of some form of automated business process, then probably the most that can be achieved is to provide service activity monitoring support for (2).
If we assume that most large organisations have one or more automated "end to end" business processes, then that gives us a frame of reference when communicating issues to the end user.
Firstly, a system can be monitored against those business processes to build up a profile of how those processes perform under normal circumstances, and therefore give reference information (i.e. a template) upon which to identify deviations that may highlight issues.
Secondly, accumulating such historic information about these business processes can be useful in determining where improvements in efficiency can be made, as well as potentially providing data that can be used to simulate against a proposed new process, to determine an estimate of the improvements.
Thirdly, having this history information, in the context of a business process, enables the organisation to determine the costs associated with running that same process over different infrastructure (by plugging in an appropriate cost model), e.g. to determine the cost savings that may be made by moving some or all of their business process execution to different cloud providers.
When users need to access the history information, drilling down based on selecting a business process, and then having options to filter out business transactions based on certain criteria, could be useful. In some cases the filtering may be based on specific transaction information (e.g. a transaction id), but in other case, it may be specific to the performance characteristics associated with a part of the process.
Once relevant transactions have been identified, they should be able to drill down into details of the activities related to the transaction, which may also include details of the deployment architecture (i.e. nodes in the clusters used to execute the transaction).
From a service administrator's perspective, they may be more interested in how the services are performing. However the context that can be provided by an understanding of the business processes, could be invaluable in ensuring that they tackle the highest priority issues first. So although a particular service may indicate that it is performing poorly, if that service is vary rarely used - or is only used by low priority business processes, then it is better for the service administrators to focus their efforts where it will have a more positive impact on the business.
Same applies to the IT level - the priority of IT issues can be determined by their impact on associated services, which indirectly impact the business goals.
So possibly the initial focus should be on defining models that can be used as profiles/templates to:
(1) assess the executing system against normal parameters - and with the overall understanding of their role in the business context, this can help to assess priorities.
(2) generate appropriate notifications when the measured criteria is going out of bounds
(3) provide a reference model through which users can visualise the state of the system, progressively filtering out information based on various criteria
(4) different models can be used depending upon the layer of interest, e.g. BPMN2 choreography/process models for the business processes, UML deployment diagrams for the logical service layer, etc

Located on a bluff off of Coast Highway overlooking the Pacific Ocean, sits an educational community known as El Morro Elementary School. In today's fast paced society it is refreshing to find a close knit community school where families stop to have a chat with staff, other parents and maybe have a cup of coffee. Staff, parent volunteers (PTA Dads), and the principal meet the buses and cars as they drive in each morning and open car doors to greet each student with a warm smile and a "Good Morning". El Morro is proud to maintain its hometown feel and instill this sense of connectedness to each and every student.
El Morro is located in the north end Laguna Beach, a small town surrounded by the exploding growth of South Orange County and Newport Coast, California. El Morro is one of two elementary schools, which feed into Thurston Middle School. Families come from the areas of north and south Laguna, Emerald Bay, Crystal Cove and the Laguna Canyon. The school program consists of kindergarten through fifth grades and includes a comprehensive Special Education program. There are currently 600 students enrolled in the school.
To extend the opportunity for students to thrive, El Morro has developed a comprehensive after school program available to all students in grades 1-5. The PTA sponsors the after school program and provides scholarships to any student who need assistance. At this time the after school program which includes classes such as Garden Club, Academic Chess, Chorus, Story Telling, Art, Mad Science, Digital Photography, Badminton, Guitar, Violin, Drums, Computer Club, Drama, Golf and many more. There is truly something for everyone in the after school program.
El Morro Elementary is a school where teachers have a passion for teaching young students and helping them to develop a lifelong love of learning. I look forward to working together to inspire of love of learning in all students!
Orange County and California are currently experiencing an increase in measles cases and more cases are expected to occur over the next several months.

It's that time again. In the spring of 2007, we told you all about the marvels of the 2008 and 2009 Entry Drafts. Now it's the fall of '08, and it's time to talk a little about 2010. Is the amazing talent pool entering the league every day finally about run dry? Don't bet on it.
Taylor Hall, LW
Windsor Spitfires (OHL)
6'0, 178 lbs 11/14/1991
2008-09 Stats: 8 GP, 4-9-13, 6 PIM
The Scoop: We initially referred to him as a Guy Lafleur clone, but let's change that to Gretzky. Has the same effortless acceleration that can leave opponents standing still, the same passion for the game. But Hall's most priceless gift is his vision. Like The Great One, Hall will hang in the background, and step into the play at the exact microsecond required to intercept a pass or make a pass no one else can see.
The Future: Hall is a 1.6 PPG player now, and was hovering right at 2 prior to a couple quieter games. His numbers may not be as mind-blowing as Tavares' at 16, but his game is as good in some respects- and better in others. 2 PPG seems to be the standard for high-rate talents in the O, but the Spitfires have a lot of talent in the next couple of seasons that could rival what the London Knights assembled. He could have 100 points next year, and 50+ goals.
Jordan Weal, C
Regina Pats (WHL)
5'8, 158 lbs 4/15/1992
2008-09 Stats: 8 GP, 3-8-11, 4 PIM
The Scoop: Weal is the most electrifying player in the WHL as a 16 year-old. A tremendous skater with great acceleration, Weal loves to dart in and out of traffic to find seems. He'll often fly into a crowd, draw a couple defenders to him, and calmly dish the puck off. He's also a pretty handy goal-scorer, but he won't see many until he's a bit stronger.
The Future: The WHL has seen a couple of smaller guys enter the league as underagers and post ridiculous numbers: see Hamill, Zach and Boychuk, Zach. But Weal just exudes energy and star power neither did at the same age. He was the undisputed league MVP through the first couple of weeks, continuing to perform unbelievably well under pressure. And unlike Hamill, who had Peter Mueller and Kyle Beach to finish for him, Weal had little options until the return of Jordan Eberle from Edmonton's camp. His size makes him prone to a nasty decline as teams adapt to his style of play; the only way to combat that is more height and weight.
Austin Watson, RW
Windsor Spitfires (OHL)
6'3, 171 lbs 1/13/1992
2008-09 Stats: 8 GP, 3-4-7, 4 PIM
The Scoop: On the other end of the scale, American-born Austin Watson is one of the two pieces that are helping revitalize hockey in Windsor (see Taylor Hall). Watson is both one of theOHL's biggest forwards and one of its most skilled players. His great hands and sense of timing fuel fine dishes from the right boards. Away from the puck, while not mean, the big winger can absorb hits easily and deliver good ones in return.
The Future: Watson just needs to keep developing. He needs muscle- lots of it- and maybe a touch of nastiness. He's got all the tools to be a star power forward in the NHL. In the O, look for 75 points this year, and 90-95 next year.
Erik Gudbranson, D
Kingston Frontenacs (OHL)
6'3, 195 lbs 1/7/1992
2008-09 Stats: 6 GP, 0-5-5, 6 PIM
The Scoop: Sweden has Victor Hedman. Canada has Erik Gudbranson. Selected fourth overall in the OHL Bantam Draft with the reputation of being a big, hard-hitting rearguard, the Orleans native realized in camp his style of play would not suit the O. So all he did was transform himself, turning from a so-called Pronger clone to a Bourque one. Possessing great top-end speed and a willingness to jump up in the play, Gudbranson is often the first one back in his zone. In fact, he's often able to read the play so far ahead that he's in place before everyone else has decided rush back the other way.
The Future: Gudbranson has set the bar extraordinarily high. In fact, based on stats alone, he's the top pick among one of the deepest classes of d-men ever. And the hype will only get bigger as he does. Many have wondered what it would be like if Hedman were Canadian, and we're about to find out. A handful of defenders have cracked 50 and even 60 points as rookies, so that's not going to set any records. But would 80 points- and maybe 100 PIM- be out of the question next year?
Brandon Gormley, D
Moncton Wildcats (QMJHL)
6'2, 180 lbs 2/18/1992
2008-09 Stats: 8 GP, 1-2-3, 4 PIM
Another in a long list of young, well-built defenseman compared to Chris Pronger, Brandon Gormley couldn't play any differently. Then-Midget coach Dale Derkatch- now head coach of the Regina Pats- compared the youngster to Lidstrom. A smooth, quick skater like Nik, Gormley doesn't have that outstanding first step or stride that can single-handily fuel the attack. And that's good. He instead utilizes all of his gifts, from his hockey sense to his quick, accurate passes and hard, always-efficient point blasts. Already projecting an icy calm demeanor and a commanding presence on the ice as he advances the puck, it's scary to think that Gormley is two years from being just draft-eligible
The Future: But he's not without fault. After accumulating an amazing 25 points in his first six games of AAA, Gormley noticeably fell off, finishing with 'only' 56 in 42 games. He will have to remain consistent and maybe find a way to produce more offense even in his 16 year-old year. Still, that's reaching. A tangible goal is adding ever-important muscle.
Maxime Clermont, G
Gatineau Olympiques (QMJHL)
6'0, 201 lbs 12/31/1991
2008-09 Stats: 6 GP, 3-2, 2.74 GAA, 0.895 Sv%
The Scoop: Those don't look like the stats of a winner, but neither does a 3.94 GAA, and that's what one JS Giguere carried into his draft year. Like Giggy, Clermont presents a very large, low stance to shooters. Great vision and long legs allow him to follow the puck and cover the bottom of the net before a shooter can let it fly.Clermont is also a pro at directing pucks out of the zone, and when used on the PK, he can almost run the thing by himself. However, like Jiggy before JS Allaire sorted him out, Clermont is inefficient and presents a huge five-hole to shooters with his style. Long, low shots can beat him from a fair distance.
The Future: Clermont will need some good coaching and natural development to remain the star of the '10 goalie class. His workload has not been particularly heavy, which will allow him to develop at safer- albeit slower- pace.
Kirill Kabanov, LW
Spartak-2 (Russian First League)
6'2, 176 lbs 7/16/1992
2008-09 Stats: 4 GP, 3-3-6, 6 PIM, + 3 (Ivan Hlinka U18)
The Scoop: A big Russian kid with great offensive skills who plays the LW. Wait, he's... right. Another Alex O, right? Uh, nO. Kirill Kabanov may not be the next Ovy, but he's going to be a darn fine player just the same. A highly popular young man both as an athlete and a person, Kabanov escapes many of the cliches that follow Russian players around. But who does he play like? Well, think a playmaking version of Ovechkin. A dazzling skill player, Kabanov revels in appearing and disappearing, and his maturity in knowing when to be flashy and when to just do his job is incredible. He's also a capable leader and willing to both take and give hits- big, bone-jarring hits.
The Future: The Sudbury Wolves hold Kabanov's CHL rights, and they're doing everything humanly possible to bring him over. While he'd be an instant hit in the O, this is a rare opportunity where staying in Russia may actually help him more- after all, his style of play and body are suited for the men's game. So long as he does not run afoul of his coach, Kabanov could get the kind of experience that can only prepare him for the NHL quicker.
Maxim Kitsyn, LW
Metallurg Novokuznezk (RSL)
6'1, 174 lbs 12/24/1991
2008-09 Stats: 11 GP, 4-0-4, +3, 2 PIM
The Scoop: Another big Russian LW with goal-scoring talent? This one must be like Ovy-Wan, right? While it's closer, Maxim Kitsyn is still no Ovechkin. Not overly physical, Kitsyn instead relies on incredible natural ability. Chased by Metallurg since the age of 14, Kitsyn was named KHL ROTM after scoring four goals in just eight games. A bit awkward in his first couple steps- a style issue, not a skill one- Kitsyn is nevertheless an explosive, powerful skater. He prefers to fly north-south with the puck, using NHL-quality tricks to conceal his shot angle.Kitsyn does not telegraph his shot, and a microsecond release allows him to let go quick, unpredictable rockets. To make it even more of a challenge,Kitsyn can perform incredible moves in tight with one or two hands on the stick.
The Future: Kitsyn doesn't have a lot to work on offensively. While he can make great short passes, he rarely dishes and prefers to fly to the net. This will likely change as he becomes more willing to experiment and has the leash from his coach to do so. He's also very competent away from the puck for a 16 year-old in theRSL, at least making the attempt to be in the right area on the backcheck. He's no Ovechkin, and he's maybe not a Malkin, but he's something special regardless- think a bigger, stronger Simon Gagne.
Teemu Pulkkinen, RW
Jokerit J18 (Fin J18)
5'8, 171 lbs 1/2/1992
2008-09 Stats: 5 GP, 10-12-22, 2 PIM
The Scoop: You're reading that right. 22 points in five games. 4.5 PPG. How is that possible? Well, for starters, offensive wizard Teemu Pulkkinen collected almost half of them in one game earlier this week, scoring ten points in a 21-0 victory over the last place team in the league. Truth be told, the U18 league has been too easy for the youngster. While nowhere near NHL-ready physically, Pulkkinen has been able to physically dominate opponents with a fearless, mack-truck style of hitting. He's simply a beast and has made opposing players afraid of him. One of the best in Finnish youth hockey history at deking through opponents, Pulkkinen has plenty to work on before he can be considered a serious contender for first overall.
The Future: ...better include spending days and nights in the gym. Pulkkinen will also need to improve his dedication for the basics of hockey, as he struggled when put into the U20 league. If he can't get by on skill alone there, it'll be tough to crack the Finnish men's league, never mind the show. With two years until the draft, there's still time for three or even six inches of growth.
Mikael Granlund, C
Karpat Oulu J20 (Fin J20)
5'8, 163 lbs 2/26/1992
2008-09 Stats: 7 GP, 3-7-10, +2, 10 PIM
The Scoop: Much like Pulkkinen, Mikael Granlund is a phenom in Finnish hockey. At age 16, he is playing with players three and four years older- and doing quite well. Why was Granlund able to make the jump, and not Pulkkinen? Simple: Granlund has learned to tone it down. A YouTube favorite at 14, Granlund's skills with the puck and pure puckhandling put Rob Schremp to shame. In J18, Granlund would often control the puck for an entire powerplay, just mesmerizing his opponents while they waited for a wicked slapshot. However, in A Junior, the story couldn't be much different. Willing to support his linemates offensively, Granlund is quietly putting up over a PPG and emerging as a slightly more ready prospect than Pulkkinen.
The Future: Again, that's not saying much. Neither will go anywhere in the NHL if they do not have above-average gains in height and weight. The odds are that at least one of them will, but one of them will not. There's even a good chance neither grow any more. It's exciting, but unlike Kitsyn or even Kabanov, Pulkkinen and Granlund are a little more uncertain at this point time, if anything can be more uncertain than 16 year-olds who have yet to even begin living their lives.

I have a form that works well. Using a CFC, I have two CFSELECTS that are related. A selection on the first determines the display on the second. So far so good. But then I started thinking that users need to be reminded of what they are selecting. In the first CFSELECT the value is a user ID. I want to use that to populate a CFINPUT or simply a CFOUTPUT, but this has to be bound to the CFSELECT. So the user chooses her name. That populates a second CFSELECT with choices for her to select. But in between, I want to show her a choice she made months ago, and this is a value that I grabbed in the CFFUNCTION that is bound to that CFSELECT.
Is there a way to display another value after the CFSELECT? Another value that my CFQUERY in the CFC has already grabbed?
That would be really good. I could then, once a user has selected her name, show her user ID and other information and also show her this selection of some hardware that she made months ago and forgot about.
Then the form would go on to the second CFSELECT where she would select a date for tech service. But I think that part is unrelated to what I want to do in between.
I've Googled this scenario and the most likely solution is something like this.
Within a component and a CFFUNCTION, I would put something like this
<cfset var userModel=[queryname].userModel> (I'm just guessing here)
<cfreturn userModel>
And then I'd be able to bind a CFINPUT to this component and function and display the userModel.
The user would see this and remember what hardware she chose and then go on to choose a date to get it.
I've tried variations on this but always get a message to the effect that the parameter has not been passed in.
If you showed us the cfc and the form, the explanation would be much easier to understand.
Here's the CFC, followed by the form. The Name and Date CFSELECTS work. The model CFSELECT is the problem. I used the HTML view to paste the code.
SELECT Name, Emp_Id, SelectionDate, ModelSelected FROM machine_Selection WHERE SelectionDate > '2012-05-31 00:00:00.000' ORDER BY Name SELECT convert(varchar(6),lr.session_date,107) as session_date FROM Laptop_Rollout lr inner join laptop_selection ls on left(ls.modelselected, 2) = left(lr.session_name, 2) OR left(ls.modelselected, 2) = right(lr.session_name, 2) WHERE ls.emp_id = #arguments.emp_id# AND lr.session_date NOT IN ( select SelectionDate from laptop_selection where year(selectiondate) = 2012 group by SelectionDate having count(SelectionDate) >= 25 ) ORDER BY CONVERT(datetime, Session_Date, 103) ASC <
************** the form *************************
Please try again. The code you posted is mushed up.
My related cfselects work fine. What I display in the first select is a list of user names, with their IDs as values, which is passed to the second select which will display a set of targeted dates. I also want the user to see a field of data from the cfquery in the cffunction that I bind to the first select. So when a user selects the name, the user will then see this data. I've tried using a cfinput, but the argument is not passed from the cfselect. cfquery that grabs Name, ID, ModelSelected
cfquery that grabs dates from another table based on ModelSelected *************** cfform *************************
Perhaps this will enable me to do what I want.
From Adobe help with cfselect: "selected" = One or more option values to preselect in the selection list. To specify multiple values, use a comma-delimited list. This attribute applies only if selection list items are generated from a query. The cfform tag preserveData attribute can override this value.
No. Multiple values in a cfselect works only with a query, not a bind.
I got it. I just needed to reference the previous select, like this. bind="cfc:cfc.laptopModel.getModel({employee})"

If there is no Allen, then it just unthreads from a pipe nipple.
This thing is so old that it's crumbling when I put the allen wrench in the tiny hole underneath. My problem is that when I put the allen wrench in, I cant find anything to unscrew. I've tried every size wrench that will fit in the hold and still nothing. I can't see in there either. We're renting the house from my fiance's mom and she swears we need a plumber but it's just an old faucet, I should be able to handle that.... with some help
If there is no Allen, then it just unthreads from a pipe nipple.
Thanks! Can I use a set screw faucet that I have to replace the old screw on one or should I go buy a new screw on faucet?
If it unscrews there is no set screw. You would need to get a threaded diverter spout.

Feel free to roll your eyes or shake your head emphatically if you've heard this one before:
The University of Central Florida football team is on the verge of something big.
The University of Central Florida football team is on the verge of another major disappointment.
It could go either way. Flip a coin.
Will we see the dominant UCF team — the one that blew out UAB in its regular-season home finale Saturday afternoon —match up against Tulsa next weekend in the Conference-USA championship game?
Or will we see the team that got run over by Tulsa just a few weeks ago, when the Knights blew the opportunity to host the championship game on their home turf?
It's obvious that the Knights don't need to feed off a raucous crowd at Bright House Networks Stadium, since plenty of good sections were available on a beautiful Saturday afternoon against UAB. There seemed to be about a couple hundred fans in the student section. You have to wonder if the rest of the 57,800 students enrolled at UCF went on a weekend bender or simply don't care.
Sure it was an extended Thanksgiving turkey time for many students, but it's a disappointing picture of empty seats and an announced crowd of 28,602 when other teams — Gators and Noles, for instance — were playing before sellout crowds overcome by football fever.
The temperature of UCF fans has been mostly luke warm throughout the years. It's been an odd symbiotic relationship between the football program at the fans. The up and down nature of the football program may give fans pause to truly commit. But the Knights have certainly made some noise on campus, playing in three previous C-USA championship games, and moving to a new stadium aptly nicknamed the "Bounce House."
"Last game of the season, championship game appearance on the line, it's disappointing not to see the stadium at full capacity," Michel Champagne, vice president and general manager for Bright House Networks, said from his view in a suite at the stadium.
Bright House is committed for the long haul, after signing a 15-year naming rights contract in 2006. We shall see about the fans. We will put Dr. Phil on pause for a week to see how this plays out. The Knights need to energize the fan base by winning the C-USA title next weekend. One more victory gets them to 10, a benchmark for excellence no matter what brand of football you play.
"Winning the division isn't enough for us," senior free safety Kemal Ishmael said.
The Knights seemed most capable of that on Saturday, rolling to a 49-24 victory despite allowing 599 yards of total offense.
"Coaches were telling us all week, 'Don't to take the foot off the pedal,' " said wide receiver J.J. Worton, who did his share by scoring twice.
The problem with the Knights is consistency and instability. They can be very good. They can be very bad. They reflect the resume of their coach, George O'Leary, who happens to have a non-rousing 59-54 record at UCF in nine seasons.
Then there is 2013. The Knights are leaving a low-profile conference to join one that is disintegrating. The Knights will be playing in the Big East Conference, a league that has been ransacked by other conferences and has lost much of its nationwide appeal after losing its automatic BCS bid. The team will likely be on probation, unless the school wins its appeal with the NCAA.
This needs to be the year for UCF and O'Leary. That is why the school filed the appeal, to bank on the success of 2012.
Must win baby.
It is all about survival and relevance.
UCF is on the clock.

Comments about Rawlings Official Pony League Baseball Dozen:
Use these basballs for team practices. Pitching, batting, infield, etc. We do not use them in wet weather, however, sometimes the outfield grass may be damp so we wipe them down and start again with a dry ones. We purchased three dozen and it appears they will last longer than our previous practice balls. Batted balls come off good when hit with a bat. Expected quality for the price.

What is a Rave?
A rave is a type of all night dance party, popular in many parts of the world. The term is taken from the Jamaican word for party, rave, but true rave parties really didn't begin until the 1980s. A rave may be legal or not depending upon where the event is held. Partying all night is not illegal, but activities associated with raves may be.
For example, for a time, some were held in abandoned warehouses or places not zoned for a large number of people or party activities. These were often semi-spontaneous events, with announcement circulated by word of mouth. It should be noted that many raves are legally held, though activities at a rave definitely cross into illegality when underage kids are served alcohol or when drug use is rampant.

Today I saw two dog owners and a trainer in the store to give and get lessions. I know that they do not have to let them in but it was so nice that the dog owners could move thue the store and give there dogs the time to meet new people. A young handicap lady for came in and the staff was so very good to her. The dog trianer went to her car and bought back a dog she uses for demo for her to pet. GREAT JOB BY ALL Thank you for making my day a little better.
WILL NOT SHOP HERE AGAIN :( – I loved shopping at this store until today. today I only bought one item for $1.00 however I would spend $15-$30 1 or 2 times a week buying pet toys, kittie litter, pet treats, pet can food ect. They have free sample packets of dog and cat food sometimes i would grab 5 or 10 and noone working there seemed to care (one time a lady working there helped me decide which food was the best and gave me 4 and knew I had already put about 5 in the cart so I put them in my purse another time a worker asked how many pet do i have as much as I am in here(THERE WAS NO PROBLEM WITH ME HAVING DIFFERENT SAMPLE PACKETS) Today I noticed a few workers standing behind me (looking in my cart and my purse that was wide open with some sample packets) one would be at the end of an aisle I was in and one at the end watching me shop. The last aisle I was in one of them was standing at a register with their arms crossed and watched me the whole time i was shopping down the last aisle. When I paid for my item a lady who had balloons in her hand said to me "you are only allowed one packet you need to put them back including the ones in your purse" (which was wide open) the lady who cashed me out kept saying "OMG" as I was walking out the one said "if I can't afford to feed my dogs I shouldn't have them" yes I can afford my dogs I was spending $60-$80 a month in that store. IF THEY FELT I WAS SHOP LIFTING WHY WASN'T THE POLICE CALLED! There are other pet stores with reasonable prices (and ebay ) where I can get my pet supplies. DIDN'T HAVE PROBLEMS FOR TO MANY SAMPLE PACKETS BEFORE TODAY WILL NOT RETURN :( as much as I was in there they are not that busy sometimes just myself or maybe 1 or 2 other people in the store at a time.

Step 1: Getting Ready
My reasons are simple. I live in an apartment. It is temporary housing, and therefore I don't want to spend the nearly $150 per window to purchase custom top-down blinds. I also need the privacy that they offer because of my ground floor apartment.
What is the Cost and Time Commitment?
This particular project was done for under $30 (that includes all three windows). This is a bargain compared to the nearly $450 it would cost to have it done professionally. It also took me only an hour to create and install (not including shopping time).
What You'll Need:
- Make sure to measure your window first!
- One set of bargain mini-blinds per window. You are only going to use the top bar and strings for this project, so the quality of the slats is irrelevant. I found some for $2.50 each on sale, $4 each regular.
- One set of temporary shades*. They should be the kind that have an adhesive strip on one end. I bought the Redi Shades that are "room darkening" for more privacy. These cost me about $6 each.
*(These shades can be substituted for something of a better quality if desired. You will simply need to find a way of attaching the more complex shades/blinds to the top bar of your bargain blinds.)
- A cutting knife ($1.50) and cutting board or hard surface.
- Tape (optional).
Step 4: Un-knot the strings.
Step 5: Cut the strings.
Step 8: Reattach the bottom bar to the top bar.
Hope that answered your question!
I looked for the shades that Warlord mentions but my local Home Depot didn't have them (that I could find... nobody around to help me.)
I looked all over online for top-down / bottom-up blinds and the cheapest I could find was $95 (likely plus shipping) so this saved me $60+ on one window! Thumbs up!
I do have to mention though, as a person that has never had top-down blinds, they look funny. I'm sure I'll get used to it pretty quick though.
This instructable works, but really, you just need a travelling mid-rail and a restring that terminates at that new midrail.
A visit to your local blind company will probably yield free parts (they toss lots of blinds in the dumpsters, having replaced them). Probably get enough string that way too (you want the right guage of nylon cord, or the cordlock wont grab).
Hope this helps. =]

Ali and John discuss what it takes for celeb kids to grow up well-adjusted. There have been many famous stars like Chelsea Clinton and Dakota Fanning who had no problem growing up in the spotlight - while others, like Lindsay Lohan, have had some serious struggles. Ali thinks it all comes down to the parents; moms and dads who love their kids, spend time with their kids, and teach them good values will have an easier time raising well-adjusted children.

Current Research
Early stages of tumor progression are associated with remodeling of the extracellular matrix. This remodeling includes changes in the levels and organization of adhesive proteins such as fibronectin and vitronectin found in the matrix. These changes in adhesive proteins are thought to be permissive for the increase in cell growth and motility associated with tumor metastasis. Our laboratory is studying the hypothesis that changes in the organization of the extracellular matrix modulate structural linkages between the cell and the matrix which are important to the control of cell growth and motility. Experiments are designed to identify the molecular mechanisms controlling fibronectin and vitronectin-based signal transduction pathways which influence cell cycle progression and cytoskeletal organization. Specific projects in the laboratory include: 1) defining the role of vitronectin in the regulation of pericellular proteolysis; 2) identifying molecular targets important to the regulation of cell cycle progression by fibronectin matrix; and 3) evaluating fibronectin matrix as a potential target for gene therapy in breast cancer.

During his State of the Union address on Capitol Hill Tuesday night, President Obama called on Democrats and Republicans to vote on "common sense" gun control proposals.
"If you want to vote no that's your choice, but these proposals deserve a vote," Obama said. "The families of Newtown deserve a vote."
The proposals Obama referred to include a renewal of the assault weapons ban, legislation proposed by Senator Dianne Feinstein to ban hundreds of semi-automatic rifles, handguns and shotguns, a ban on ammunition magazines holding more than 10-rounds and the implementation of a criminalized background check system for all firearms transfers.
"Our actions will not prevent every senseless act of violence in this country," Obama admitted.
As a reminder, a Clinton Justice Department report from 1994 shows the original assault weapons ban "failed to reduce the average number of victims per gun murder incident or multiple gunshot wound victims." The same DOJ concluded, "Under it there has been no discernible reduction in the lethality and injuriousness of gun violence."

The hotel is on a busy road junction, next to exit 3 of St Michel Metro/RER station (very convenient for CDG Airport and any Metro rides) but with double-glazed windows closed, noise isn't a problem and air-conditioning keeps the room from getting too warm at night. Reception area access from the street is via a flight of stairs with no disabled access which may pose a problem for some potential guests. There is a small lift for access to the rooms—corridors to the rooms are quite narrow.
Room 52 is a perfectly adequate corner room on the 5th floor with a comfortable bed, plenty of storage space, a mini fridge that can store your own items as well as the mini-bar stock, and a small safe. TV is available with mainly French channels and CNN, which we only used to check out world news and the weather forecast for Paris! There are three long windows in this room, one facing Quai St Michel with a Seine view towards Pont Neuf and two more on Place du Petit Pont, leading on to Rue Saint-Jacques, with excellent views of Notre Dame and the Seine towards Pont de la Tournelle—perfect for a first trip to Paris!
All correspondence with Simona and Julie prior to our visit was very promptly and efficiently dealt with and our check in was hassle-free. We were always greeted with a pleasant smile by all of the reception desk staff and they were very courteous and helpful. They patiently tolerated our appalling attempts to speak French—although I think our efforts were appreciated—and replied to us in perfect English! The housekeeping staff, who work very hard at keeping the rooms clean, also greeted us very pleasantly when we met. Towels, complimentary soap, and shower gel are replaced daily.
Breakfast is available in the hotel at a cost of €7 and consists of croissants, crusty bread, orange juice, and coffee—there are plenty of other options very close by if you prefer to sit outdoors and watch Paris go by! There are no restaurant or bar facilities within the hotel but Le Notre Dame Bistro is situated directly below. After check-out the reception desk staff kindly held our luggage so that we could enjoy one last walk around before our trip back to the airport.
For those who are seeking out "real Parisian life" the area will probably not be for you but if you are a first time (or even a returning) visitor to Paris who wants a central location, preferably with a view, we would highly recommend this hotel.

The only drawback to this hotel is that there is no air conditioning. Normally this is not a problem, but we happened to be in Paris during a heat wave, and the temperature was very unpleasant for about 3 days of our stay.
Unless it is unusually hot, I would highly recommend this hotel.

TOWSON, Md., Nov. 16, 2012 – Senior outside hitter Danielle Erb (Tampa, Fla./Plant) set career highs of 26 kills and 30 points to lead the sixth-seeded James Madison volleyball team to a dramatic, come-from-behind, 3-2 win over third-seeded Northeastern in the quarterfinals of the Colonial Athletic Association Championship in Towson, Md., on Friday evening.
JMU won by set scores of 21-25, 22-25, 25-23, 29-27, 15-7 to improve to 13-15 on the season. It advances to take on second-seeded Delaware in the semifinals at 4 p.m. on Saturday at the Towson Center. Northeastern finishes its season with a 20-7 mark.
Erb's kills came on .383 hitting as she committed just three errors in 60 attempts. She had her sixth consecutive double-double and her team-leading 16th of the season, adding 16 digs, six blocks and a service ace. It was the first time a Dukes player recorded 30 or more points since Allyson Halls (2004-07) had 37.5 against Georgia State on Oct. 26, 2007. Erb also moved into fourth place on the school's all-time kills list, passing Halls and finishing the day with 1,317.
After losing a pair of tight battles in the first two sets, JMU got back into the match with a win in set three. The set was tightly contested featuring nine tie scores and four lead changes. JMU led 22-20 after a kill from Erb and a combo block by Erb and freshman outside hitter Meghan Niski (St. Charles, Ill./St. Charles East). The Huskies called timeout and came out of the break with a three-point run to grab a 23-22 advantage. Head coach Lauren Steinbrecher called timeout and Madison responded to the strategy session with a 3-0 run of its own to win the set 25-23.
Set four was another tight affair, featuring four more lead changes and 13 tie scores. NU got its first crack at match point, leading 24-23, but an attack error evened the score. JMU fought off three more match points with block and an NU attack error before closing the set on a 3-0 run to force the decisive fifth set.
The Dukes came out firing in set five, jumping out to a 4-0 lead and never letting the Huskies back into the set. JMU won the side out after each of the Huskies seven points in the set and cruised to the 15-7 win. Madison did not commit a hitting error in the fifth set and forced seven by Northeastern, outhitting NU .294 to -.037 in the tiebreaker.
Joining Erb in double-figure kills was redshirt senior outside hitter Natalie Abel (Washington, Pa./Trinity) with 18 and sophomore middle blocker Lizzy Briones (Siloam Springs, Ark./Siloam Springs) with 10. Abel had a double-double with 10 digs, while Briones contributed three blocks and a dig. Junior libero Katie Daorai (Tampa, Fla./Plant) had a team-best 25 digs, while senior Megan Wiechmann (Sunland, Calif./Village Christian) and freshman Sarah Patterson (Roanoke, Va./Hidden Valley) combined for 56 assists, 10 digs, two kills, two aces and a block from the setter position.
Outside hitter Hanna Gibeau paced Northeastern with 22 kills on .304 hitting while CAA Player of the Year Kelly Bacon contributed 20 kills and 18 digs. Libero Natalia Skiba led all players with 30 digs, while setter/outside hitter Jillian Briner contributed 31 assists, 26 digs and six kills. Middle Blocker Nicole Bishop led the team with four blocks and added seven kills.
The Dukes outhit the Huskies .201 to .184 and held a slim 4-3 advantage in service aces. Both teams collected nine blocks for the match, while NU led in digs 98-87.
The CAA Championship continues on Saturday with JMU's 4 p.m. match against No. 2 Delaware. Top-seeded Towson faces the winner of Friday night's match between No. 4 Hofstra and No. 5 William & Mary at 7 p.m. Sunday's title game is set for a 5 p.m. start.

On Monday night I watched Inside Nature's Giants, Channel Four's wildlife documentary opponent to the BBC's [insert David Attenborough's latest wildlife programme here].
The giant subject this week was the Hippopotamus, my 7th favourite animal, after Flipper, the Liger, Pegasus, the Diplodocus, the human centipede and Smaug. Kidding! Flipper is more like top 20...
Now because so many hungry hippos in Zambia's Luangwa Valley threaten the survival of other species in the park, the authorities cull 200 of them every year. Not in the X Factor "let's reject 100s from Boot Camp so 32 can go to Judge's Houses" sense, but in the "bang bang your dead" sense. Bad Times for Hippos...
Good Times for Veterinary scientist (AKA Vet) Mark Evans and comparative anatomist (AKA anatomist who compares the anatomy of different animals - OK let's stick with the former) Joy Reidenberg. Both go all Frank Sinatra on us and get right under one of these mud-loving beast's skin.
So until the real life Dr. Doolittle makes himself known, anatomical exploration is apparently the best way to learn more about the inner workings of an animal, and after an hour watching some peeps in orange jumpsuits digging through entrails, this is what I now know about these ballet-loving mammals:
A solid effort by the channel that brought you Gok's Fashon Fix and Hollyoaks (the coma- patients' favourite) but without the aged timbre of upper-middleclass articulation, In Nature's Giants will never truly knock Atters off the wildlife top spot.
Here's hoping Skippy fairs better next week.

First Timers
Mar 11, 2005
PAT NOONAN (First Start, First Goal)
ussoccer.com: Even though you had already got your first cap as a sub, describe what it was like getting your first start for the national team.
"Obviously it was a good feeling. There's no question it is an honor. I wanted to play the way I was capable of playing and not try to do too much. I felt like I played well. It's good to get that under your belt."
ussoccer.com: Not only your first start, but also your first goal that turns out to be the game-winner. Take us through the play …
"It was a great individual effort by Ralston to beat his guy on the right side. The chip he tried on the goalkeeper was pretty classy. I was hoping it went in, but once I saw it hit the crossbar I just followed it up and tried to bury it."
ussoccer.com: Does getting that first game and first goal give you a bit of confidence, and perhaps a greater motivation to continue to perform?
"It's definitely motivation. Once you've experienced it, you want to do it again and again. It's difficult to get into the starting XI for this team because we have so many great players, but once you get the opportunity you want to do what you can to get back out there."
ussoccer.com: What was the first thing going through your mind when you scored?
"Finding Ralston and thanking him for the gift. I think I owe him something."
ussoccer.com: When you're standing out on the field before the game, hearing your name called and listening to the national anthem, does it bring into focus what it really means to play for the national team?
"You definitely get chills a little bit. Hearing the anthem and the sound of the crowd is pretty cool. Then you come into the team huddle and you hear 'USA on three,' and it's a great feeling."
BRIAN MULLAN (First Start)
ussoccer.com: Even though you had already got your first cap as a sub, describe what it was like getting your first start for the national team.
"It's a great honor to start for your country. I know it's something that everyone says, but you can't really describe it until you go through it. I was just trying to be focused on my responsibilities on the field and getting accustomed to the environment."
ussoccer.com: You also had to deal with starting at right back, a position you have never played before. Did that make the challenge of starting even that much harder for you?
"To tell you the truth, I think it made it easier. I didn't know what to expect, and I think playing the new position helped relieve some of the pressure that was on me. I enjoyed it. I didn't feel as much pressure as I do in the midfield when you have to attack and defend."
ussoccer.com: Does getting a taste of success at the international level give you a bit of confidence and perhaps a greater motivation to continue to perform?
"Definitely. I remember seeing the game tape against Poland [his first appearance, July 11, 2004]. I looked like a deer in headlights. I was so nervous I couldn't perform. Getting the first start under your belt and getting a victory, I proved to myself that I could play at the international level. I think the confidence for everyone who got their first start is going to grow."
ussoccer.com: When you're standing out on the field before the game, hearing your name called and listening to the national anthem, does it bring into focus what it really means to play for the national team?
"Obviously the same thing happens at every club game, but when you're wearing the U.S. uniform and listening to the national anthem, it's special. It's something every kid looks forward to. Listening to the anthem, I was just thinking about what an honor it was to be there, and trying to put everything into perspective. Not many people get to do this."
NAT BORCHERS (First Cap)
ussoccer.com: What was going through your mind when the coaches told you that you were going in?
"It was funny how it happened. I was warming up, and Chad [Marshall] wound up having a collision and being down for a while. The coaches called me up, I get my jersey on, and then Chad goes back on the field. Then I was just sitting on bench, nervous as hell. Everyone around me was giving me advice, telling me to relax and enjoy myself. Then Mooch tells me I'm going into to replace Pablo in center midfield, which was surprising since I obviously don't play that spot."
ussoccer.com: Do you think that getting thrown into a new position like that at the last-minute helped take your mind off the nerves?
"I do think it was easier. Bruce and Mooch told me to just sit in front of the defense and win balls. They didn't ask too much of me. I just had to sit in front of Chad and Ritchie, and they did a great job of telling me where to go."
ussoccer.com: The coaching staff continually stresses that players have to be ready to contribute to the team, whether they are a starter, a reserve, or just cheering on their teammates. In your case, you got 10 minutes for your first cap where you're asked to help kill off the game. Do you think it's that kind of attitude that helps make this team so successful?
"The fact that I can go in and play a position I haven't played in 3-4 years speaks volumes for the guys on the field, the coaching staff, and U.S. Soccer. Every guy works hard for every other guy on the field. There's no question that the reason this team has been so successful is because of that mentality of working for each other and not letting the next guy down."
ussoccer.com: Having spent the last 10 days in training with the full team, and now getting your first cap, are there things that you have learned about being a better professional that you will take back to your club environment?
"Every time that Pablo and Joe come back from national team, they are that much sharper, that much better on the ball. It's about doing the little things that are necessary to play at this level. I've seen what other guys do that make them successful, whether it's eating habits, training regimen, how to spend your down time, etc. I'm hoping to bring what I've learned back to the Rapids."
ussoccer.com: Did you feel any additional pressure or responsibility?
"It's amazing. As I was walking out, I didn't feel any different. A big part of my game is to be vocal and give directions out on the field, so it was like second nature to me. It's part of my personality, so it's not that big a transition."
CHAD MARSHALL (First Cap, First Start, First Goal)
ussoccer.com: What was going through your mind when you first found out you were starting?
"Bruce told us at training the day before. I tossed and turned a little bit the night before. I was definitely nervous about it being my first experience in an official game, and having it be against such a good opponent."
ussoccer.com: How long did it take for the nerves to settle?
"As soon as the whistle blew. I knew I needed to focus on the game. Frankie [Hejduk] told me in the locker room to just play how I always play, and that was comforting."
ussoccer.com: You certainly made it special with that header …
"Yeah, it was awesome to get a goal. I didn't get one goal in 35 games with Columbus, so to get it done with this team was cool. My parents were there and a bunch of family so it was pretty special."
ussoccer.com: Take us through the play …
"It was a corner kick that got hit back out. Steve Ralston and Clint Mathis played a nice little one- two that sprung Ralston down the flank. He whipped in a nice cross, and I was fortunate to make a nice run and get my head on it."
ussoccer.com: With the January camp under your belt, and now your first game and first goal, do you feel your confidence building?
"I definitely feel more confident and comfortable with the guys around me. Now it's just a process of continuing to improve my communication with the guy next to me on the backline, and helping organize the people in front of me. Hopefully I'll continue to get the opportunities."
JON BUSCH (First Cap, First Start, First Shutout)
ussoccer.com: What was going through your mind when you first found out you were starting?
"I was excited obviously. Most importantly I just wanted to have a good game and get a win for the team. It was a nice reward from the coaching staff. They like what I've been doing the last few camps."
ussoccer.com: When you're standing out on the field before the game, hearing your name called and listening to the national anthem, does it bring into focus what it really means to play for the national team?
"It definitely all hits home. All the hard work I've put in over the last ten years: this is my reward for it. The biggest thing was helping the team. For whatever reason, I wasn't really nervous. I tried to think of it as just another game."
ussoccer.com: Things started getting a little hectic for you early in the second half. As a goalkeeper, do you prefer to be busy to help maintain focus?
"In the middle of the second half, they started to put some pressure on us, with a few free kicks around the box and a couple close-range headers. For me, it's kind of a catch-22. You want to stay attached to the game, but you don't want to get pummeled with so much time on the clock. You give up a goal, then it's a game again."
ussoccer.com: Not only did you get your first start, but a victory and a shutout to boot …
"It was tremendous. The most important thing was the win, not just for me but for the team. We produced a good result against a good team. Shutouts are always nice, but for me, the biggest thing was it proved that all my hard work – from the A-League to MLS to the national team - is paying off."
ussoccer.com: It has been a remarkable journey for you, from five years in the A-League to backup MLS goalkeeper, and now a member of the national team pool. Tough to write that script …
"When you think about it, it's amazing. It's definitely a dream come true. I've thought about this goal ever since I played on the youth national teams, and to get the chance is very special."
PABLO MASTROENI (First Time as Team Captain)
ussoccer.com: Last night you became part of a small fraternity of players to wear the captain's armband for their country. Describe what it was like for you …
"It was a great privilege to captain the team against Colombia. It was honor to be a part of a group that worked so hard for each other. You never know what to expect with so many guys you haven't played in a match with before, and it was incredible what the response was and the level at which we were able to perform. Overall, it was a tremendous experience. We got a victory with a relatively inexperienced group of MLS players against a quality team. It speaks volumes about where this national team is going."
ussoccer.com: Did you feel any additional pressure having the responsibilities of being captain?
"As I was walking out onto the field, I really didn't feel any different. It's part of my game to be a vocal leader and to help organize out on the field, so it felt like second nature to me."
