"I May Be Losing My Mind – I'm Believing in Oracle Hardware"
By Meghan Fritz-Oracle on Sep 30, 2015
Happy #HumpDay, partners,
We wanted to take a second and share an interesting blog post from ESG Founder and Senior Analyst Steve Duplessie. A man who has spent much of his career being averse to Oracle hardware.
Duplessie shares his insights into the advantages of running Oracle on Oracle. He gives praise to Oracle's cloud strategy, vertical integration from chip to middleware to cloud, and the company's bold R&D investments each year.
- "I didn't realize Oracle's cloud strategy is so extensive…"
- "It's $12,000 a year for 1 PB of storage. 1000 TBs. For $12 grand. That's insane."
- "Every company in the world can afford to archive data at those price points."
- "Oracle is 100% committed to expanding its cloud services."
- "Oracle is vertically integrating everything from the chip to the app to the middleware to the storage to the cloud… The real world benefits from one throat to choke, and one "system" approach. The consumer variant of this has been Apple, and it worked. We're already seeing a huge trend back to integrated computing stacks, and Oracle just happens to be positioned enormously well here – since everyone runs their database and apps."
- "Bottom line is if you're running Oracle software, you can get net incremental advantages that make the software run that much better on Oracle hardware and in the Oracle Cloud."

The design for my website www.piercingbible.com is just about to be updated, and that's surely for the best. But, one slightly sad (but unavoidable) thing that is that my old Guestbook will be no more, and the posts will be unavailable. Some related good news is that all of my previous blog posts will still be available in the archives on the updated site. So, I've decided to make a blog post "Best of the Guestbook" to preserve some of the entries. Here we go!
It has been quite some time since I posted as I was on the road without internet access. I had a fantastic trip to Milan, Italy where I taught a 3-hour course on oro-facial anatomy and basic piercing at the APTPI Congress. The audience was comprised primarily of piercers from Italy, though there were individuals from other countries as well. I taught the class (which included a PowerPoint presentation containing over 250 slides, and video of me performing piercings) in English. They provided professional interpreters and the audience listened to the translation on headphones. It was really cool, but I had a little bit of stress while we tried three different computers and couldn't get my PowerPoint to play. Finally they got it working. Whew! While in Milan I had the pleasure of visiting the Duomo, which was incredible. (Photos below.) The host hotel was great, but it was located a little bit outside the city, so we didn't get to see much of Milan while there. Bethra Szumski was my travel companion. She is the owner of Virtue and Vice in Atlanta, Georgia; and Pain and Wonder in Athens, Georgia. She's also the secretary for the Association of Professional Piercers, and she taught a class in Grounding and Bedside Manner. Following the conference we caught a ride with some friends from Slovenia and went for a visit in their home town of Koper. We had an incredible whirlwind trip and they showed us Piran, a beautiful old beach town on the Adriatic Sea, and also gigantic caves in Postojna, Slovenia.
Posted December 9, 2009, 1:56 PM EST: The Piercing Bible, Definitive Guide is excellent source. As an RN, I have worked in our emergency department and I prepare patients for surgery. I educate my patients and colleagues regarding body piercing. I have found Elayne Angel to be my educator. Her extensive knowledge and professionalism have given me the tools to better teach others. I quote from her book, and try to help remove the stigma associated with people who choose to adorn their bodies. I HIGHLY recommend this book to ALL, but also encourage my fellow healthcare professionals to be informed!
I'm so excited! Here's the link to my up coming book signing and Q & A event at Books Inc. in the Castro in San Francisco: http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/4888043/CA/San-Francisco/Elayne-Angel-Books-Inc-Castro/Books-Inc-in-the-Castro/ Thursday December 3, 2009 at 7:30pm
I found that The Piercing Bible had been quoted in this article in The Daily Cardinal, the University of Wisconsin online newspaper. I was delighted to see that a great deal of factual information was included and that the piercers were quoted in the piece were knowledgeable and provided accurate facts. For example, this part, where I'm quoted:
Elayne Angel, the author of The Piercing Bible who estimates she has performed over 40,000 piercings, echoes this last point: "I have had more than one client confide in me that she had never had an orgasm ... until after I had performed her [piercing]!" However, every one of these experts is quick to note that the clitoris is usually not what's pierced in a "clit piercing." Instead, it is the clitoral hood that is bedazzled. The clitoral hood is the fold of tissue that covers the clitoris. Since the clitoris itself is so highly innervated, Ziebell cautioned, "If one false move is made, all feeling is lost forever, and I don't want that on my conscience." Indeed, Piercer X explained many women who come in requesting "clit piercings" are actually looking for a clitoral hood piercing: "I sometimes spend part of the time going through the names of the hills and valleys down there so I'm sure I know what [a client] wants," he said.
The piercer mentions how frequently women requesting "clit piercings' actually want hood piercings. I've definitely found that to be the case. Also, the piercer said that he does 95% vertical clitoral hood piercings (VCH), and that is similar to the percentage I do (vs. horizontal hood piercings). I'm not sure why he or she didn't want to be named, preferring to be referred to as "Piercer X," but at least the information was sound!
One person who would know is professional body piercer Elayne Angel. Elayne is not only covered in various forms of ink and metal herself, but she is also one of the pioneers in professional body piercing, a field she personally helped expand decades ago. Elayne has served multiple terms on the board of the Association of Professional Piercers as an advocate for field safety, and her most recent project has been authoring The Piercing Bible, the definitive guide for consumers and professional body piercers.
I'm so excited to see a book like this being published. I was really impressed by how neutral it remained without leaving things out. Its really hard to write on this subject because so much of piercing is personal preference, but you did a fantastic job! xo- Cj

Current/Elliott Jeans
Christina Aguilera in Current/Elliott
Christina Aguilera was seen leaving Crown Bar in Hollywood wearing Current/Elliott leggings in Jet Black Overdye Shredded. I wasn't a fan of the shredded denim, but Christina turned my thoughts around. I think she works this look perfectly, she has such great street style. But for me, the style should be kept in a black wash. The heel on the boots are pretty interesting, it looks like there is writing on the heels. Buy these jeans at Shopbop.

Vanessa Hudgens in Current/Elliott Denim Shorts
Vanessa Hudgens was seen at the Oakley store in Australia with boyfriend Zac Efron on Valentine's Day. She was wearing Current/Elliott The High Waisted Cut off shorts in Traveled. The couple are in Australia for Zac's part in the "Oakley into Summer Learn To Surf" campaign. Vanessa looks so great, her outfit makes me want to go to the beach! The weather is really warm here in California. That is a perk… the beach in February. Buy these shorts at Revolveclothing.
Jennifer Garner in Current/Elliott
Jennifer Garner was spotted out and about in Beverly Hills wearing her Current/Elliott "perfect shirt" again. I'm not quite a fan of her outfit here, it's just very plain looking to me. I think she needs some accessories to spruce this outfit up, maybe a bright scarf or big bright handbag…

Reese Witherspoon in Double Denim
Reese Witherspoon was spotted out and about in Santa Monica, California wearing a pair of dark jeans paired up with a Current/Elliott Snap Jacket. Here is one instance that I think double denim in the same color looks pretty good, because she gave it enough of a visual break with her green scarf and grey shirt. Doesn't she look just super happy?! Buy this jacket here at Revolve.

Earlier this week, I read an Anne Lamott article in which she says a few things so well, I don't think anybody again will ever say them better. ("There were entire books written on the subject of the overly sensitive child. What the term meant was that you noticed how unhappy or crazy your parents were." // "Any healthy half-awake person is occasionally going to be pierced with a sense of the unfairness and the catastrophe of life for ninety-five percent of the people on this earth." // "One of the hardest lessons I had to learn was that I was going to need a lot of help, and for a long time.") As a writer, there are two ways you can respond when you read an article like that. You can be happy such good writing exists, resonating in different sentences with what you've seen to be true, written in a way that cuts to the point—or you can be bummed out, because, hello, you weren't the one creating it. This, of course, goes for more than writing. … [Read more...]
Summer Days + Homemade Soft Serve
It's a bloody hot day in Nashville, a Wednesday, the kind of day where walking the 50 or so feet from your kitchen door to the mailbox means beads of sweat forming fast on your forehead and upper lip. Tim and I are inside, working, I at my laptop on the dining room table, he from his computer on the sofa. When I look up from the article I'm writing, I see him straight ahead; when I turn to the right, it's all blue skies and beating sunshine above our front yard. I want to be sitting in the grass, I want to be having a picnic, I want to be sipping lemonade while rocking on a giant front porch. Then I remember the heat, and I change my mind: I want to go swimming. "What time is it?" I say to Tim. He tells me it's half past noon. "Too bad," I answer back. "Wish we had time to go to the lake." And then we look at each other from across our freelance perches, and he says what we're both thinking: oh yeah, we do. So we finish our work and throw some towels in a bag … [Read more...]
This is the good stuff.
I don't know where you sit today, but I hope your view is as nice as mine, where the air smells sweet and the sun is high. Charcoal grills send smoke through my windows, green grass surrounds blooming tulips and daffodils, restaurants open their walls so we can dine al fresco as the sun sets. I've realized as much as I hate Chicago winter, I love it for this: what else could make me so aware of the beauty of Chicago spring? And as spring turns to summer and summer to fall, I will keep enjoying the beauty of seasons, the joy of watching change unfold around you, irrespective of you and what you want. It's nice to be a part of that. I guess what I'm saying is that these almost-summer afternoons are the good stuff, what we've been waiting for, so maybe you'll understand why it's hard to resist all they tempt me towards? Things like a sunny weekend game at Wrigley Field, hours antiquing in northern Illinois, long walks on tree-lined streets of ivy-colored brick buildings. Last … [Read more...]

Szymanowski: Stabat Mater; Veni Creator; Litany to the Virgin Maryby Antoni Wit
The pieces included on Naxos' 2008 release of choral works by Karol Szymanowski exactly matches those of its 1996 recording featuring Karol Stryja leading the Polish State Philharmonic Orchestra and Chorus, but the remarkable quality of this new version fully justifies the duplication of the repertoire. Antoni Wit, whose stature has become more recognized in the West since the turn of the century, conducts the Warsaw Philharmonic Orchestra and Choir in luxuriant readings of some of the composer's most appealing choral and vocal compositions. The "Stabat Mater" is a paradoxical work (in the best way), monumental but intimate, austere in tone but lush in its musical language. Szymanowski's success in integrating these disparate elements gives it a power and uniqueness that demand attention; it certainly deserves to be recognized as one of the masterworks of twentieth century choral music. In this impassioned performance, the orchestra, chorus, and soloists soprano Iwona Hossa, mezzo-soprano Ewa Marciniec, and baritone Jaroslàw Brek bring a searing dramatic intensity to the piece. One of its most telling moments is the intimate closing in which the three solo voices are highlighted. The remaining works on the CD share the compelling musical language the composer employs in the "Stabat Mater": a saturated post-Romanticism tinged with impressionism, Eastern European folk traditions, and a sense of Middle Eastern mystery and exoticism. "Veni, Creator" is a grand and triumphant cry of exultation interspersed with radiant solos. The two movements of "Litany to the Virgin Mary" are a serenely ecstatic hymn of praise. "Demeter" and "Penthesilea" are secular cantatas, the first for alto and women's chorus and orchestra and the second for soprano and orchestra, and they are even more frankly sensual in their appeal: rhapsodic and passionate retellings of ancient myths. The performances throughout match those of the "Stabat Mater" in their heat and atmospheric coloring. The sound is flawless, warm, and pristine, with just the right amount of resonance.

OAKLAND -- The A's reinstated Ryan Cook from the disabled list to bolster the bullpen at the start of a nine-game road trip that begins Tuesday against the Yankees.
To clear a roster spot, right fielder Josh Reddick was placed on the 15-day DL with a hyperextended knee. Reddick injured himself while making a catch against the outfield wall Saturday night against the Angels. He didn't play Sunday.
Cook was 0-1 in with a 2.92 ERA in 12 appearances before he went on the DL May 9 (retroactive to May 8) with a strained forearm. He threw a scoreless inning for Single-A Stockton on Saturday, which convinced the A's he was ready to return.
His addition will be welcomed by a relief corps that could use some help from the right side. With Jim Johnson struggling and not being used right now when the A's are leading, Cook can help take some of the late-game burden off Luke Gregerson and Dan Otero as they try to get the ball to closer Sean Doolittle.
Reddick is hitting just .214 with four homers and 22 RBI in 50 games. It figures that Craig Gentry and Brandon Moss both could see time in right field to make up for his absence.

National Security Brief: February 17, 2012
— Director of National Intelligence James Clapper told a Senate panel yesterday that Israel has not yet decided whether to attack Iran's nuclear facilities but that if it did, a strike would only set back Iran's nuclear development by one or two years.
— Reps. Walter Jones (R-NC) and Keith Ellison (D-MN) are circulating a letter urging President Obama not to start a war with Iran. "We agree with most Americans that the United States should not enter a new war, just as we are finally ending two others," they write. "A military strike against Iran could lead to a regional war in the Middle East and attacks against U.S. interests."
— Shelling continued in the Syrian city of Homs a day after the U.N. General Assembly passed a non-binding resolution condemning human rights violations by the Syrian government, leading British Prime Minister David Cameron and French President Nicolas Sarkozy, following a meeting in Paris today, to say the Syrian opposition needs more international support.
— Defense undersecretary for policy James Miller said this week that new reductions in deployed nuclear weapons could take place without harming U.S. security. "I do believe that there are steps that we can take to further strengthen our deterrence posture and assurance of allies, and that I believe we can do so with lower numbers," he said.
— Rep. Randy Forbes (R-VA) is planning a "speak-up tour" to get members of the military and the defense industry to speak out publicly against the cuts that are facing the military.
— Egypt's Muslim Brotherhood political party, the Islamist party that currently leads the Egyptian Parliament, is threatening to review the 33-year old peace treaty with Israel if Washington cuts off aid in response to a crackdown on American-based nonprofits in Egypt.
— The U.S. military estimates that supporting the Afghan army and police forces after the withdrawal of American combat forces in 2014 will cost $4 billion per year, a bill that will have to be paid by the U.S. and outside donors.
— New York Times foreign correspondent and two time Pulitzer prize winning journalist Anthony Shadid died yesterday in Syria after suffering an asthma attack.

This 1998 photo provided by Megan Chance shows her with her thoroughbred mare, Burma, in Mountainside, N.J. For six years, they were inseparable. Megan worked on pacing her new horse, calming her, grooming her, earning her trust. From the start it was clear that Burma would never be a good hunter or jumper: she didn't have the calm, steady temperament to win in the show ring. And she was sickly _ Megan endured whole nights in the barn, nursing her horse through bouts of colic, an intestinal disease that's sometimes fatal. But Megan loved Burma's adventurous streak, the fact that she was willing to try anything, loved their deepening bond. (AP Photo/Megan Chance)

Speaking Of Regrets and Alcohol
I regret not getting on the podcast bandwagon until a few days ago, because podcasts are (with apologies for being so late to this realization) fucking cool. One of the podcasts I'm now signed up for comes from NPR, which sends me a daily podcast of whatever the NPR editors decide was the best story from the previous daythe one that I didn't know I couldn't live without.
Today it's Susan Orlean talking about being crafty. And yesterday, it was a story that will surely inspire regret on the part of many thirsty Stranger readers:
A researcher at Cornell University has found that even when bartenders are told to be very careful, they pour about 30 percent more alcohol into a tumbler-sized glass than a highball-sized glass. The result can mean people have more to drink than they think they're getting.
I regret, on behalf of all of you, the you didn't ask for more drinks in tumblers this year.

Introducing… The Amazing Prospero!
Cambridge, Mass.
All theater is magic. Even the most naturalistic of productions seek to deceive us into supposing that the stage we see is really someplace else: a cluttered living room, a sterile doctor's office, a grimy inner-city diner. But few things can be so spellbinding as a play whose director shrugs off literalism and chooses instead to wave the wand of imagination. That's what happens in the production of "The Tempest" currently being presented by Boston's Actors' Shakespeare Project, in which Patrick Swanson takes Shakespeare's tale of a ship run ashore on an enchanted isle and turns it into a 19th-century magic show. I've reviewed many memorable Shakespeare productions in this space, but Mr. Swanson's "Tempest," like the "King Lear" that he mounted for Actors' Shakespeare two seasons ago, ranks very near the top of my list.
Unlike the production of "Macbeth" jointly staged by Teller and Aaron Posner that is now playing at the Folger Theatre in Washington, this "Tempest" contains no actual prestidigitation. Here the magic is a matter of atmosphere: Prospero (Alvin Epstein) is decked out in a velvet-lined cape, Ariel (Marianna Bassham) dons the top hat and black tights of a conjuror's assistant, and the play itself becomes a music-hall turn acted on a tiny thrust stage ringed with footlights that look as though they'd been made by Tom Edison himself. The "theater" is an 1889 Cambridge courtroom that has been converted into a performing space. All of Actors' Shakespeare's productions are site-specific, and David R. Gammons, the designer, makes the most of this one, using the second-story gallery as an alternate playing area whose staircase allows for grand entrances and exits. Eric McDonald performs his incidental music in full view of the audience, rattling a thunder sheet and tootling on a slide whistle with the flair of an old-time radio sound-effects man.
Mr. Epstein, who turns 83 in May, played Lear to awesomely eloquent effect for Actors' Shakespeare in 2005. Now he speaks the lines of Prospero, Shakespeare's other old-age star turn, with a fullness of understanding to which no actor can aspire until he reaches the time of life when (as Prospero puts it) "every third thought shall be my grave." Only a man full of years and experience could convey the immense wisdom that resonates in his simple reply to Miranda (Mara Sidmore) when she first lays eyes on the shipwrecked sailors washed up on her island home. "How beauteous mankind is! O brave new world/That has such people in't!" she cries with all the bright innocence of youth, to which her father answers, "'Tis new to thee." The gentle stress that Mr. Epstein places on "thee" is the stuff great acting is made of. The rest of the cast is uniformly excellent, though I took special delight in Ms. Bassham, who sings as well as she acts; John Kuntz and Robert Walsh, the drunken clowns; and Benjamin Evett, the company's artistic director, who does double duty as a hideous-looking Caliban.
Mr. Swanson's "Lear" transferred to an Off Broadway theater. Will his "Tempest" end up there as well? I hope so, but you'd better not count on it: Go to Cambridge now and get to know one of America's finest Shakespeare troupes.

I've never seen a worse play by a better author than Caryl Churchill's "Drunk Enough to Say I Love You?" That Ms. Churchill should make so embarrassing an impression in a mere 45 minutes is further proof that politics can make artists stupid, for this pathetic little playlet is nothing more than a political cartoon, one whose draftsmanship is as crude as its underlying premise.

The lights go up on Sam (Scott Cohen), a handsome homosexual who has seduced Guy (Samuel West), a married man with children, and persuaded him to abandon his family and job. Within a half-minute or so, we figure out that Guy is England, Sam is the U.S. (duh, get it?) and the abandoned wife and kids are the European community. The rest of "Drunk Enough to Say I Love You?" consists of a lovers' quarrel conducted in unpunctuated sentence fragments: "so much fun in my life... being powerful and being on the side of good is... God must have so much fun... win win win." Needless to say, the point of these coy exchanges is that the American government bears sole responsibility for all the evil in the modern world (though I gather that Ms. Churchill doesn't think much of Israel, either).
While most of the horrors so tendentiously cataloged in "Drunk Enough to Say I Love You?" are familiar enough, Ms. Churchill has dredged deep in the fever swamps of anti-American paranoia and come up with a couple of fresh lulus. Did you know, for instance, that the CIA murdered Charles de Gaulle? That one got past me somehow, but Caryl Churchill, God bless her, is on the case. As for the rest, I'll settle for quoting William Phillips's retort to a pro-Soviet harangue by Kenneth Tynan: "Your arguments are so old that I've forgotten the answers." Not that "Drunk Enough to Say I Love You?" deserves to be dignified with the word "argument." It is, rather, a hysterical shriek, and the only playgoers whom it will persuade are those already certain that AmeriKKKa is a land of fascist hyenas.

Tabuli is the interesting traveler that always visits our holiday celebrations. It is not a particularly wintery dish, but it has a cultural place in our tradition. It is a simple Armenian dish that is prepared much the same as a salsa, lots of chopped fresh and fragrant ingredients, with the addition of bulgur wheat which gives the dish body, and makes it a complete dish because it has protein.
My family makes this for Christmas each year and it's a great light dish for leftovers. It's a side salad, a confetti beauty on the dinner table with the various greens and small dice. This is the traditional way my Grandma and Mom always make it, and doesn't need a thing added to it. Keep it fresh!
This is a great side dish to prepare ahead of time, it will keep well and the flavors will marinate overnight in the fridge. You can serve cold or room temp. Take it to school or work the next day!
Servings: about 6 servings, ¾ cup each
*You may need to go to a health food store or Middle Eastern specialty market to find this. You can alternatively use brown rice, barley, or quinoa and cool it down before mixing with the salad ingredients.
Additional information: appropriate for Lacto-Ovo Vegetarian and Vegan diets.

This story was written by Joseph Weisenthal.
There hasn't been much movement on the potential deal between Blockbuster (NYSE: BBI) and Circuit City since the electronics retailer agreed to open up its books to the movie rental chain. The only real development is that Circuit City has turned in some rough results, prompting speculation that Blockbuster may walk away. Circuit City held a shareholders meeting yesterday where little was made of the deal, but major investor Mark Wattles told Reuters that something is likely to be announced soon. He said he had familiarity with the process, saying it has done well, with multiple bidders having emerged. Besides Blockbuster, the potential suitors include both strategic buyers and financial ones.
Shares of Blockbuster actually ticked up, supposedly on the sense that Blockbuster won't be the buyer. That's not surprising, since investors have always seen the deal as a punt, not backed up by anything concrete.

PHP? Arrghghgh.... That's what we're using at work, and for myself and the other sysadmin, it's a royal pain: we have to compile it, since *NO* rpm builds it with java enabled, and there's a corporate piece that's java that has to be called. I also *LOATHE* that it scatters its files in completely non-standard places, such as php.ini *not* being in /etc, but in /usr/local/lib, of all places (that is, when I've built it in /usr/local)!
The other thing with rpm's is that some seem to be badly coded, so that if you have a *newer* library, it bitches and moans.

Niek de Kleijn
As far as my education in mathematics is concerned. I have finished my bachelors in physics and mathematics at the university of Amsterdam in the summer of 2011. I have finished a master's in mathematical physics in the summer of 2013, also at the university of Amsterdamm (UvA). My master's thesis was about integrable hierarchies as obtained from Frobenius structures, particularly the KdV hierarchy.
Currently I have started a Phd at the centre for symmetry and deformation (SYM) at the university of Copenhagen (KU). I research aspects of deformation quantization, specifically finding explicit expressions of algebraic index theorems in the case of group actions on symplectic manifolds. This Phd is under supervision of dr. Ryszard Nest in the Non-commutative geometry (NCG) group.
Beside that I am originally from Rotterdam and play the guitar and piano. If this leaves any questions I'd be happy to answer them.

There are a lot of people who believe forged knives are superior to stamped knives. Is there truth to that statement? In this article I will address that statement, and also why it misses the point altogether.
Henckels and Wusthof are famous for their forged cutlery. People rave about their quality. In product reviews, I see all the time where someone buys a stamped knife and then trashes it in the review because, in their mind, it is an inferior stamped knife. Let me shed some light on the truth.
Whether a kitchen knife is stamped or forged, it does not indicate the quality of the knife.
Stamped cutlery is cut out of rolls of steel. They have the blade ground down and honed to a fine sharp edge. Handles are attached. They do not have a steel bolster that connects the handle to the blade. They are lighter than their forged counterparts because they have less steel. Their balance may be hard to determine because of their light weight.
Forged knives tend to have thicker steel, and a solid steel bolster, a metal part that joins the blade with the handle. The tang, the part of the knife that goes into the handle, may be the full width or height of the handle. Forged knives are heavier than stamped knives because of their extra steel. The vision many of us have about forged knives comes from the old stories, and Hollywood dramatization, that molten steel is poured into molds, dipped into water, and hammered to the desired size and shape by sweaty old craftsmen.
Let me throw a wrench into the perceived notion about forged quality. Zwilling J.A. Henckels, the brand that all forged knife devotees bow down to, start many of their forged knives with stamped blades! Don't believe me? Here is a link to a short video showing their SigmaForge forging process.
The idea that either a forged or stamped knife is superior misses the point altogether. The real question is "What makes a quality knife?" I answer that question in that link, but let me tell you that forged or stamped has nothing to do with quality.
Don't get me wrong - forged knives exhibit higher levels of craftsmanship. Their shape, weight, and balance can feel like a natural extension of the arm and may require precise manufacturing.
If I'm going to be doing a lot of prep work cutting, dicing, and chopping, I may not want a heavy knife that will wear me down and possibly strain my wrist. I may want a much lighter knife that is super sharp. If that's the case, I'll want a stamped knife or a ceramic knife. On the other hand, if I want a knife that I can feel the weight of that is perfectly balanced, and that can help cut through some very solid and tough foods, then I may want a heavier forged knife.
Do either of these "preferences" indicate quality? No. It's because the debate about forged versus stamped is not about quality, but rather preferences.
If Henckels, and who knows how many other revered forged knife manufacturers, start with stamped metal, then the debate cannot be about stamped versus forged quality. Consider how well perceived ceramic knives are these days. They are known to be half the weight of steel knives and maintain their sharp edge up to 10 times longer. They stay sharp! And they are light like stamped knives.
Quality is not about stamped or forged. There are other characteristics to consider when talking about quality.

The Squeezing and sub-poissonian photon statistics of an optical field are a purely quantum mechanical phenomenon and has been accepted as means of achieving noise below the quantum shot-noise limit. The effect of higher-order squeezing and sub-poissonian nature of an optical field in coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS) and coherent anti-Stokes hyper Raman scattering (CAHRS) are investigated under short-time approximation. The coupled Heisenberg equations of motion involving real and imaginary parts of the quadrature operators are established and solved under short-time scale. The dependence of squeezing on the number of photons is also investigated. It is also shown that higher-order squeezing allows a much larger fractional noise reduction than lower-order squeezing. The occurrence of amplitude squeezing effects of the radiation field in the fundamental mode is investigated in both the processes. The present work shows that squeezing is greater in CAHRS than the corresponding squeezing in CARS. It is also shown that squeezing is greater in stimulated process than corresponding squeezing in spontaneous interaction. The conditions for obtaining maximum and minimum squeezing are obtained. The photon statistics of the pump mode in the processes has also been investigated and found to be sub-poissonian in nature.

Downton Abbey star Laura Carmichael was last night celebrating after a charity she supports was given a £250,000 grant from the Government.
The award has been made to the Haiti Hospital Appeal to help improve the health of mums and babies in Haiti, which was hit by a devastating earthquake in 2010.
Laura, 28, said: "I was in Haiti when the Haiti Hospital Appeal was developing this important project, and it's amazing that they can now implement it with the support of the UK government.
"I had the incredible privilege of witnessing first-hand the dedicated work of local community health workers, who work passionately under incredibly tough conditions, in order to provide critical care to some of the world's most vulnerable women and children in Haiti.
"I also witnessed the tragic reality facing some mothers and babies when the right support isn't available.
"The level of poverty that the communities involved in this programme live under is harrowing, and as HHA's patron I am excited by and proud of the incredible impact that this project will have.
"Together, we are looking forward to seeing more mothers and babies receiving safe births in Haiti, a right that all women deserve."
International Development Secretary Justine Greening said: "Four and a half years after the earthquake many women in Haiti are still giving birth in appalling conditions and without the help of midwives, doctors or nurses.
"Newspapers like the Sunday Mirror are playing an important role in making sure we don't forget about them.
"Having visited the country, I know that the Haiti Hospital Appeal is a shining example of a UK charity making a real difference to people's lives overseas and I am delighted that our funding will help give even more mothers and babies the high quality healthcare they need."
HHA has been awarded a 3 year £249,866 Global Poverty Action Fund Community Partnership grant.
Community Partnership grants are for small UK-based not for profit organisations with an average income of less than £1m per year for the past 3 years. The maximum grant is £250,000 for up to 3 years.

Guys Worth Fouling
I was checking out Dwight Howard's stats and noticed that this year his field goal percentage (0.626) is higher than his free throw percentage (0.599). That led me to wonder if anyone's pulled this trick over the course of a full season, and it looks like both Ben Wallace and Shaquille O'Neal did it regularly.
The key thing I would note about Howard is that even though his free throw percentage is very poor, him going to the charity stripe is still a fairly high-efficiency offensive play—just less efficient than most people's free throw shooting. The same was true for Shaq in his heyday, but more recently he's started turning in seasons where his free throw percentage is well below fifty percent, which turns it into a real liability in certain situations.

5 Summer Craft Ideas
Your kids are out of school, and if they aren't at camp during the day, they may have run through all of the activities home has to offer within hours of summer break starting. And although we support independent play, sometimes adult-assisted crafts can break up a hot, summer day. We've put together five activities that work with different elementary-school-aged kids (and may even provide an artistic outlet for Mom and Dad too).
#1 Tie-Dye
Although tie-dye can be intimidating, there are now wonderful kits sold at craft stores (JoAnns and Ben Franklin both have them locally) that simplify the process. The kits contain dye bottles, rubber bands, and gloves. If you want to save money, you can dye old t-shirts, pillowcases, and sheets. And if you want to go au naturel (or just don't feel like leaving the house), you can make your own dyes from foods found in your pantry, as featured in this natural tie-dying post.
With some good ol' printer paper and YouTube videos, you can put together some pretty impressive structures. A great starter video from Rob's World (which has other kid-friendly how-to videos) shows a step-by-step origami butterfly. Click here to view it. Older kids can find more difficult projects, while younger ones can conquer the basics, like the classic crane.
#3 Collage
If you have any print material laying around — junk mail, magazines, newspapers — you can introduce your child to collage. Cutting out letters or images around a certain theme can be an hours-long project. Give your child a question, like, "What would would you like 5th grade to be like?" or "What would the ideal vacation look like?" and have him/her answer through cut-out pictures and words.
Making pillows for a child's bed or a simple bag is easier than you think. You don't need a sewing machine (sewing by hand helps develop those fine motor skills), and JoAnns has everything from sports teams to Hello Kitty fabrics. If your kiddos aren't ready for actual fabric sewing, they can have fun honing their skills on paper plates, as seen on this learn-to-sew site.
#5 Shell Art
If you hit one of our local beaches (the Strand in Oxford, Claiborne Beach, Sailwinds Park in Cambridge), you can give your kids the mission of collecting shells. Instead of leaving them in the beach bag until the next sandy outing, shells can become the foundation of many a craft project. With everything from a wind chime to a decorated picture frame to shell ornaments, RedTedArt has great ideas for all ages.

The challenge facing software quality research is to produce a metric that will guide developers in choosing techniques to achieve the desired product quality. "Quality" comprises some set of key behavioral attributes: reliability, performance, fault tolerance, safety, security, availability, testability, and maintainability. Software quality is thus a function of these combined attributes plus an error term that represents quality aspects these eight attributes can't define. This article discusses how to quantify these behavioral attributes by working around relative values and formulating schemes from an attribute's key indicators. Thus, one can still assign numerical values to various attributes and then normalize them. By having such a system during requirements elicitation, developers can immediately begin to determine what techniques, methodologies, tools, processes, and costs they will need to produce a system with that quality level.

Leading Fort Worth Chevy Dealer Unveils New 2011 Volt
Fort Worth Chevy shoppers are encouraged to check out the innovative new 2011 Chevy Volt, now available at Lynn Smith Chevrolet. The new model was named the 2011 "Car of the Year" by Motor Trend magazine.
The leading Fort Worth Chevy dealer is particularly excited to offer a greener option that may well be shaping the future of automobiles. Designed with efficiency in mind, the all-new Volt is powered by electricity without being tethered to an outlet. Even more remarkable is its ability to drive gas and emissions free for most commutes. Its small quiet on-board gas generator creates electricity that will power the volt on battery and gas power for hundreds of miles.
Forth Worth Chevy Fans Applaud The New Volt
The Volt can travel up to 50 miles on battery power alone and has a range of 379 miles when using both the engine and battery. Aided by its aerodynamic exterior, Goodyear Assurance fuel max tires, and an innovative 16-kWh lithium-ion battery pack the Volt will get you anywhere you need to go. Lynn Smith Chevrolet is sure Fort Worth Chevy shoppers will be impressed with its versatility and functionality.
The Volt's superior battery is the heart of the car. Tested and built to withstand the toughest elements, Chevy backs its battery with a 100,000 mile / 8-year warranty. With the ability to easily plug-in and charge at home on any standard 120V household outlet, the all-new Volt is not only a greener vehicle but also more cost effective. Unlike standard cars, an average daily commute in the Volt will only cost about $1.50 of electricity a day.
The Volt's interior is also equipped with innovative features. A re-imagined dashboard will make driving more fun and informative and an available Volt mobile app can help you drive more efficiently. Other features available in the Volt include: a Bose Energy Efficient Sound System, an Audio Hard Drive with 30GBs of audio data storage with DVR-like time shift capabilities, BlueTooth connectivity, a USB port for MP3 players or flash drive devices, and a remote keyless starter.

PHOENIX -- Randy Johnson will have season-ending back
surgery and intends to be back for the Arizona Diamondbacks at
spring training next year.
"I have no intention at this time of retiring," he said at a
news conference Friday. "I'll cross the bridge of surgery and be
willing to go through the process of rehabilitation again because I
know I can still pitch. And I love pitching. It's what I've been
doing since I was 7 years old."
It marks the second year in a row that the Big Unit will have an
operation on his troublesome back. It will be the third back
operation of his career.
"He tried to work his way through it," Melvin said, "but it
just didn't get any better."
The 43-year-old left-hander was traded to the Diamondbacks from
the New York Yankees in the offseason, signing a $26 million,
two-year contract with Arizona, the franchise where he experienced
his greatest success in the late 1990s and early 2000s.
The five-time Cy Young Award winner made his way back to the
rotation after extensive rehabilitation. He had several strong
starts but struggled in his later outings, then he was diagnosed
with a herniated disk.
Johnson went on the disabled list, worked his way through a pair
of bullpen sessions, then threw 42 pitches in a simulated game on
Tuesday. Afterward, he felt the effects of the injured disk, pain
that he feels all the way down his right, or landing, leg.
"I can deal with the pain," he said, "but the symptoms aren't
allowing me to pitch. When I bend over, my hamstring with the nerve
in there just feels like it's on fire. To do that repeated times
makes my leg week ... Everything just starts kind of shutting
One of the best left-hander in baseball history, Johnson is
determined not to go out this way.
"I surely don't want to end my career because I had surgery,"
he said. "I would much rather call it a career being healthy and
being ineffective and say `You know what? I can't do it anymore.
But that hasn't been the case."
The operation will take place next Friday in Los Angeles.
"I think this one is a little more serious than the one he had
last year," Melvin said.
Johnson had surgery last October and had to start this season on
the disabled list. Having an operation now, he said, will give him
three more months to heal for next season.
"Hopefully we'll see the effects of that," Johnson said, "and
hopefully this doesn't occur again."
Johnson has 288 wins and wants to reach 300 before he calls it
quits. During a brief stretch this season, he was easily Arizona's
best pitcher. That stint bolstered his confidence.
"For the short period of time that it was," Johnson said, "I
was pitching as good as anybody, so I guess I still love being
competitive, and I know that I can still pitch."
