ABSTRACT: Highly dynamic overlay networks have a native ability to adapt their topology through rewiring to resource location and migration. However, this characteristic is not fully exploited in distributed resource discovery algorithms of nomadic resources. Recent and emergent computing paradigms (e.g. agile, nomadic, cloud, peer-to-peer computing) increasingly assume highly intermittent and nomadic resources shared over large-scale overlays. This work presents a discovery mechanism, Stalkers (and its three versions—Floodstalkers, Firestalkers, kk-Stalkers), that is able to cooperatively extract implicit knowledge embedded within the network topology and quickly adapt to any changes of resource locations. Stalkers aims at tracing resource migrations by only following links created by recent requestors. This characteristic allows search paths to bypass highly congested nodes, use collective knowledge to locate resources, and quickly respond to dynamic environments. Numerous experiments have shown higher success rate and stable performance compared to other related blind search mechanisms. More specifically, in fast changing topologies, the Firestalkers version exhibits good success rate, and low latency and cost in messages compared to other mechanisms.Future Generation Computer Systems 08/2013; 29(6):1473–1484. · 1.86 Impact Factor - [show abstract] [hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Peer-to-Peer (P2P) networking is an alternative to the cloud computing for relatively more informal trade. One of the major obstacles to its development is the free riding problem, which significantly degrades the scalability, fault tolerance and content availability of the systems. Bartering exchange ring based incentive mechanism is one of the most common solutions to this problem. It organizes the users with asymmetric interests in the bartering exchange rings, enforcing the users to contribute while consuming. However the existing bartering exchange ring formation approaches have inefficient and static limitations. This paper proposes a novel cluster based incentive mechanism (CBIM) that enables dynamic ring formation by modifying the Query Protocol of underlying P2P systems. It also uses a reputation system to alleviate malicious behaviors. The users identify free riders by fully utilizing their local transaction information. The identified free riders are blacklisted and thus isolated. The simulation results indicate that by applying the CBIM, the request success rate can be noticeably increased since the rational nodes are forced to become more cooperative and the free riding behaviors can be identified to a certain extent.Future Generation Computer Systems - FGCS. 01/2013; - [show abstract] [hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Cloud computing is making a new revolution in the computing world. Elasticity is one of the key features of the cloud which makes cloud computing further fashionable. Cloud is still in its infant stages and it faces a wide range of security threats. The security downtime of cloud is relatively slowing down the spreading up of cloud computing. This paper focuses on the security threats faced by the weblets during their migration between the cloud and the mobile devices. Weblet migration is an important task during the implementation of elasticity in the cloud. As a primary step, a secure communication channel is designed for the weblet migration by deploying secure shell protocol. Herein, the vulnerabilities in some authentication mechanisms are highlighted and a better way of authenticating the weblets with SFTP (Secure File Transfer Protocol) is suggested. Finally, managing the traffic effectively in the designed channel with the aid of back pressure technique is also covered in this paper. - [show abstract] [hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Ubiquitous computing environments are characterised by smart, interconnected artefacts embedded in our physical world that provide useful services to human inhabitants unobtrusively. Mobile devices are becoming the primary tools for human interaction with these embedded artefacts and for the utilisation of services available in smart computing environments such as clouds. Advancements in the capabilities of mobile devices allow a number of user and environment related context consumers to be hosted on these devices. Without a coordinating component, these context consumers and providers are a potential burden on device resources; specifically the effect of uncoordinated computation and communication with cloud-enabled services can negatively impact battery life. Therefore energy conservation is a major concern in realising the collaboration and utilisation of mobile device based context-aware applications and cloud based services. This paper presents the concept of a context-brokering component to aid in coordination and communication of context information between mobile devices and services deployed in a cloud infrastructure. A prototype context broker is experimentally analysed for effects on energy conservation when accessing and coordinating with cloud services on a smart device, with results signifying reduction in energy consumption.Journal of Ambient Intelligence and Humanized Computing 01/2012; abs/1202.5519. - [show abstract] [hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The increasing trends of electrical consumption within data centres are a growing concern for business owners as they are quickly becoming a large fraction of the total cost of ownership. Ultra small sensors could be deployed within a data centre to monitor environmental factors to lower the electrical costs and improve the energy efficiency. Since servers and air conditioners represent the top users of electrical power in the data centre, this research sets out to explore methods from each subsystem of the data centre as part of an overall energy efficient solution. In this paper, we investigate the current trends of Green IT awareness and how the deployment of small environmental sensors and Site Infrastructure equipment optimization techniques which can offer a solution to a global issue by reducing carbon emissions.Sensors 01/2012; 12(5):6610-28. · 1.95 Impact Factor - [show abstract] [hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Virtualisation is a prevalent technology in current computing. Among the many aspects of virtualisation, it can be employed to reduce hardware costs by server consolidation, implement "green computing" by reducing power consumption and as an underpinning process for cloud computing enabling the creation of a range of virtual networks and virtual supercomputers. This paper presents performance measurements for a cloning system known as iVIC that has been developed in Beihang University, China. In an extension to earlier work, it focuses on the factors the limit the number of clones that can be successfully started. IVIC creates clusters of virtual computers that can communicate with each other through virtual switch mechanisms. The virtual switches can also allow communication between the clone environment and the physical world. Testing has been undertaken to identify the limiting factors for creating and starting numbers of clone machines, measure the power consumption of the physical system and the computational performance capability of the clones.01/2012; - [show abstract] [hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: As a plethora of various distributed applications emerge, new computing platforms are necessary to support their extra and sometimes evolving requirements. This research derives its motive from deficiencies of real networked applications deployed on platforms unable to fully support their characteristics and proposes a network architecture to address that issue. Hoverlay is a system that enables logical movement of nodes from one network to another aiming to relieve requesting nodes, which experience high workload. Node migration and dynamic server overlay differentiate Hoverlay from Condor-based architectures, which exhibit more static links between managers and nodes. In this paper, we present a number of important extensions to the basic Hoverlay architecture, which collectively enhance the degree of control owners have over their nodes and the overall level of cooperation among servers. Furthermore, we carried out extensive simulations, which proved that Hoverlay outperforms Condor and Flock of Condors in both success rate and average successful query path length at a negligible increase in messages.Peer-to-Peer Networking and Applications 01/2012; 5:58-73. · 0.37 Impact Factor - [show abstract] [hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Cloud computing has dramatically reshaped the whole IT industry in recent years. With the transition from IPv4 to IPv6, services running in Cloud computing will face problems associated with IPv6 addressing: the notation is too long (39 bytes), there are too many variants of a single IPv6 address and a potential conflict may exist with conventional http_URL notation caused by the use of the colon (:). This paper proposes a new scheme to represent an IPv6 address with a shorter, more compact notation (27 bytes), without variants or conflicts with http_URL. The proposal is known as dot-base62x as it is an IPv6 address with Base62x and uses the well-known period (or dot) as a group delimiter instead of the colon. The relative merits and demerits of other works that predate this paper have been reviewed and critically evaluated. Cloud computing, as a continuously emerging mainstream of network-based applications, is likely to be a forerunner in the use of IPv6 as the base protocol. As a result, Cloud computing will benefit most from the new, compact and user friendly textual representation of IPv6 address proposed by this paper.cloud computing. 01/2012; 1(3). - [show abstract] [hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Over the last decades, the cooperation amongst different resources that belong to various environments has been arisen as one of the most important research topic. This is mainly because of the different requirements, in terms of jobs' preferences that have been posed by different resource providers as the most efficient way to coordinate large scale settings like grids and clouds. However, the commonality of the complexity of the architectures (e.g. in heterogeneity issues) and the targets that each paradigm aims to achieve (e.g. flexibility) remains the same. This is to efficiently orchestrate resources and user demands in a distributed computing fashion by bridging the gap among local and remote participants. At a first glance, this is directly related with the scheduling concept, which is one of the most important issues for designing a cooperative resource management system, especially in large scale settings. In addition, the term meta-computing, hence meta-scheduling, offers additional functionalities in the area of interoperable resource management because of its great proficiency to handle sudden variations and dynamic situations in user demands by bridging the gap among local and remote participants. This work presents a review on scheduling in high performance, grid and cloud computing infrastructures. We conclude by analysing most important characteristics towards inter-cooperated infrastructures.01/2012; -
Article: Investigation of IT Security and Compliance Challenges in Security-as-a-Service for Cloud Computing
[show abstract] [hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The key security challenges and solutions on the cloud have been investigated in this paper with the help of literature reviews and an experimental model created on OPNET that is simulated to produce useful statistics to establish the approach that the cloud computing service providers should take to provide optimal security and compliance. The literatures recommend the concept of Security-as-a-Service using unified threat management (UTM) for ensuring secured services on the cloud. Through the simulation results, this paper has demonstrated that UTM may not be a feasible approach to security implementation as it may become a bottleneck for the application clouds. The fundamental benefits of cloud computing (resources on demand and high elasticity) may be diluted if UTMs do not scale up effectively as per the traffic loads on the application clouds. Moreover, it is not feasible for application clouds to absorb the performance degradation for security and compliance because UTM will not be a total solution for security and compliance. Applications also share the vulnerabilities just like the systems, which will be out of UTM cloud's control.01/2012; -

Conference Proceeding: A JADE Middleware for Grid Inter-cooperated Infrastructures.
[show abstract] [hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: During the past few years much effort has been put into developing interoperable grid models suitable of defining a decentralized control setting. Such environments may define new rules and actions to internal Virtual Organisation (VO) members and therefore posing new challenges towards to an extended cooperation model of grids. Particularly, VO members' knowledge may be expressed in the form of intelligent agents thus providing a more autonomous solution of communicating members. Herein we present a mobile agent middleware for Grid interoperable infrastructures. Facing the enlarging scale of Grid, the proposed middleware aims to extend the knowledge of a specific neighbouring of Grid members (VO) in relation to the addresses and the physical resources of known and unknown nodes which may join the Grid VO. The internal data are structured in a rational sequence and stored within a public profile of each member called metadata snapshot profile. The middleware is designed by employing the Java Agent Development (JADE) framework in which mobile agents are travelling throughout the domain and by collecting and updating internal data they extend the size of the VO. The interoperable standard is achieved by using the Critical Friends Community (CFC) model, as the mean to fulfil the inter-cooperation model.25th IEEE International Conference on Advanced Information Networking and Applications Workshops, WAINA 2011, Biopolis, Singapore, March 22-25, 2011; 01/2011 -
Conference Proceeding: Using Self-led Critical Friend Topology Based on P2P Chord Algorithm for Node Localization within Cloud Communities.
[show abstract] [hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Resource provision within critical friend environment take place on a demand fashion and it is based on the aptitude of members to look across multiple locations for resource discovery and allocation. A major concern of such large scale and uncertain topology setting is the capability of members (nodes) to efficiently search and locate neighbouring participants. Here we adopt a Peer to Peer (P2P) approach in which every node in the network acts alike and discovers resources in a distributed coordination. More specifically, we propose the use of Chord algorithms, as a distributed peer to peer lookup protocol, put forward a new solution by assigning keys to different nodes. By specifying the aspect in which keys (data) are assigned to nodes, and how a node can determine the value for a given key, the algorithm locates the node responsible for that key. In the work herein we discuss a notable case, namely how Chord algorithms as a distributed P2P lookup protocol may determine provable solutions to the problem of efficient large scale Grid and Cloud resource localization. More specifically, the aforementioned proposal deals with the load balancing, scalability and availability of Grid and Cloud resources in a decentralized manner.International Conference on Complex, Intelligent and Software Intensive Systems, CISIS 2011, June 30 - July 2, 2011, Korean Bible University, Seoul, Korea; 01/2011 -

Conference Proceeding: Towards Context Caches in the Clouds.
[show abstract] [hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Context information is traditionally collected from distributed digital artifacts and services and made available to similarly distributed, and often mobile, context consuming applications via context brokers or servers. Contextual data has a strong temporal element i.e. it remains valid for a period of time, and hence is an ideal candidate for caching strategies that aim to exploit such locality of reference. However, different types of contextual information have varying temporal validity durations and a varied spectrum of access frequencies as well. An ideal caching mechanism should utilize dynamic strategies based on the type of context data, quality of service heuristics and access patterns and request frequencies of the context consuming applications. This paper presents an investigation of the utility of various context-caching strategies and proposes a bipartite caching mechanism in a Cloud based context broker that facilitates context provisioning between context providing services and consuming applications. The results demonstrate the relative benefits of different caching strategies under varying context usage scenarios and the utility of the bipartite context caching mechanism in a context provisioning system.IEEE 4th International Conference on Utility and Cloud Computing, UCC 2011, Melbourne, Australia, December 5-8, 2011; 01/2011 -
Conference Proceeding: Towards Inter-cloud Schedulers: A Survey of Meta-scheduling Approaches.
[show abstract] [hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Cloud computing has emerged as one of the latest technologies for delivering on-demand advanced services over the internet. Various cloud providers have developed data-centres which are spread at several geographically locations, and are available for utilization from internet users. However, as the number of resource consumers is increasing significantly, it becomes apparent that the capacity-oriented clouds require coming together and agreeing on common acting behaviours for improving the quality of service, hence providing an overall optimal load allocation. In this direction, current solutions do not support a coordinated distribution of different cloud workloads. Even geographically distributed data-centres from the same vendor (e.g. Amazon) don't support a seamless mechanic for balancing hosted services as the users require indicating their selected hosts' location. To answer this limitation, a recently emerged inter-clouds notion comes to expand cloud capabilities and to offer an improved sharing paradigm of workloads. Herein we present a state-of-the-art review with a particular focus on the adoptability of current meta-schedulers for managing workloads, towards the inter-cloud era. Specifically, by exploiting inter-cloud requirements (e.g. flexibility, geographically distribution etc.) we evaluate various meta-schedulers for future inter-clouds.2011 International Conference on P2P, Parallel, Grid, Cloud and Internet Computing, 3PGCIC 2011, Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain, October 26-28, 2011; 01/2011 - [show abstract] [hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Wireless Ad hoc Networks (WAHNs) offer a challenging environment for conventional Intrusion Detection Systems (IDSs). In particular WAHN have a dynamic topology, intermittent connectivity, resource constrained device nodes and possibly high node churn. Researchers over the past years have encouraged the use of agent-based IDS to overcome these challenges. In this work we propose the use of military tactics to optimise the operations of agent-based IDS for WAHN. We design an agent framework modeled over a military command structure and an agent behavioural model, which employs adapted military tactics to police routes, and detect intruders in the network. The tactical agents follow a risk-based approach such that the frequency of patrols is directly proportional to the risk factor of the route. Consequently, resources are conserved without impacting the effectiveness of the IDS. We demonstrate the proof of concept through a case study. In this study, we implement a simulation-based model of our solution to detect and recover from a Sinkhole attack in a Wireless Sensor Network (WSN), using the Ad hoc On Demand Distance Vector (AODV) as routing protocol. We evaluate the proof of concept in terms of the detection precision, data loss incurred from the attack and the agent overheads due to mobility and communication.Computer Communications. 03/2010; - [show abstract] [hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Load-balancing research in unstructured peer-to-peer networks has been propelled by the need to improve performance and efficiency whilst retaining the desirable properties of these networks. This work builds further on an already researched efficient load-balancing scheme called Enhanced-Reconfigurable-Gnutella-Overlay (ERGO), utilising a concept of virtual-server-overlay on Gnutella networks for the purpose of load-balancing. The server-node ratio is an important aspect of these networks as they enhance or impair the functionality of the network and thus the main focus of our research. Firstly, the influence of various parameters such as network load, Node Capacity, Server Capacity and the corresponding effects of server-node ratio on metrics such as Success of Queries, Balanced Nodes and the Cost of achieving the balance were studied. Secondly, an optimum server-node ratio was ascertained, optimum implying the maximum Balance at minimum Cost and high Query Success. Findings using a purpose-built simulator, supported an increased ratio of servers with load, and conversely a decreased ratio for discovering the ERGO server. Experiments showed the optimum server-node ratio to be at 5%.Peer-to-Peer Networking and Applications 01/2010; 3:3-16. · 0.37 Impact Factor -

I am in my element the most when there's enough time and space for people I am photographing to do their thing. The most authentic moments come when I discover it or capture it as it happens, with minimal direction and "retakes". Often, to do it well, it's necessary to be a little forward and outgoing at first, to break the ice and get them to accept the camera. Once they relax, they resume being themselves, and those results are deeply satisfying. When they enjoy being themselves, I find ways of catching their vibe that can communicate it to the world.
Busy executives don't have time to let me synchronize to their "zone". They've got 12 minutes between meetings because of the standard daily emergencies. This calls for a different strategy on the part of the photographer. In these cases, I usually can talk to a communications person about what the context of the photo will be. If at all possible, I will prelight. In these cases, I prefer to use video lights, because they reduce the chance of surprises, and they blend more seamlessly into the ambient light. I then try to envision the person in motion... what are they doing just before, during, and just after the moment we wish to capture? By presenting a scenario and having the angle worked out ahead of time, we can avoid the look of a standard pose. By being ready before s/he arrives to their office, I am able to shoot a few candids while they confer with staff; then look at their mannerisms during a 2-minute get-acquainted conversation, and suggest a couple of poses that work with the light, the room, and the layout of the intended spread. The shots in this gallery do not yet represent the full range of executive portraiture I have done, or am capable of doing.
This is a personal vacation project. I placed it under the people section because there are so many impromptu shots of people along the way. In addition, there are a number of nature and commercial shots that illustrate a variety of photographic illustration skills.

NATHAN KEEPS TRACK by
Robyn Parnell
The more Lou looked at it, the more evident it became. She saw the sum of it — house and yard,
sidewalk and gravel path, the length and breadth of the driveway — and felt the unmistakable ache of
conviction. The new garbage can, in all its mute, hunter green, man-made majesty, truly belonged
there: stationed (not abandoned) at the end of her and Nat's driveway.
The can was the up-to-the-minute model, composed of recycled poly-laminar-whatsit, or so Nat had
enthusiastically declared the day the County Disposal trucks cruised through the neighborhood,
collecting the outmoded, shiny-dented metallic cans and distributing their lusterless replacements.
Nat's initial interest in the new garbage can was sincere but fleeting, and faded within a fortnight.
Oregon-gray veil of a sky, Lou opened her front door and beheld an assortment of autumn flocked
Oregon-gray veil of a sky, Lou opened her front door and beheld an assortment of autumn flocked
around the can's base. Rusty orange and ginger-gold leaf stems clustered about the can's black
rubber wheels, and every daybreak revealed a fresh arrangement. The night breezes shifted the
pattern of foliage, like the sand dunes at the coast, Lou thought.
pattern of foliage, like the sand dunes at the coast, Lou thought.
The unforeseen, persistent charm of that particular sight, and the comfort Lou took in her amended
morning routine — arise, pee, put the teakettle on, check the garbage can — had trumped her memory
of the reasons why she'd refused to haul the can back into the garage on that first Monday in
October. It was of no matter, now. Every Sunday evening Lou moved the empty can to the side of the
house. She transferred the contents of her home's various wastebaskets into two twenty-gallon,
brown plastic leaf bags and schlepped the bags curbside. Every Monday morning, as soon as the
garbage and recycling trucks had come and gone, she'd roll the new garbage can back out to the end
of the driveway.
Lou continued with this practice despite receiving a terse missive from Metro Disposal and Recycling
Service. The letter, which she found peeking out from under the welcome mat on the front porch,
curtly instructed the residents of 228 NE Gracie Ct. to use the designated garbage container or incur a
dumping fine.
"Right!" Lou snorted, when Nat confronted her with the crumpled letter, which he'd discovered atop
the incoming mail stack on the entryway table. "It's been less than a month since they've been on the
new system, and now it's such a hardship for them to get out of the trucks? I smell a worker's comp
scam. Someone might throw his back out, pickin' up two or three plastic bags that weigh less than the
one metal can they used to lift? That's why the county gave everyone new garbage cans, Nat. It's so
the new trucks can lift 'em, not people. Everything's automated now."
Except for me
. Nat stopped himself mid-grumble, silently conceding that he, too, had atypical conduct
to account for. Three weeks...it had all the markings of a major standoff. Only three weeks, and
already he'd forgotten why, on that particular evening, he had not brought the garbage can in. Nat
could not remember why he'd replied, "No, I don't think so," when Lou asked him to wheel the can
back to the garage. Her arched eyebrows silently demanded an addendum to his non-explanation,
and Nat had coolly complied.
"Not yet. Feel free to bring it in, if it troubles you."
troubles me? If it
me." Lou repeated the statement several times, changing the
emphases. "
it troubles me; if it troubles
?" She became more...motivated, Nat thought, by the
latter versions.
"If it troubles me.
. The garbage can comes in, 'cause of me. 'Cause of my great concern for
garbage can welfare?"
Nat tossed his jacket on the sofa. It had been a lingering, ample day. He'd no idea what Lou meant
and shrank from summoning the mental energy to consider her implications.
"If it doesn't concern me, it doesn't get done. That's it?"
"No, that's not it." Nat gingerly lowered himself to the sofa and summoned his
it's simple, darling
voice. "Lou, if you want the can in, then bring it in."
"I am totally capable of bringin' the can in. And of fillin' it up and takin' it out. It's like loadin' and
runnin' and then unloadin' the dishwasher, and laundry, groceries and the and-and-and list. I am, it
seems, capable of doin' anything and everything. But I'm not goin' to do that. And do you know why?
'Cause it's not about capabilities, it's about justice. As in, will be
one more thing that I d
Nat leaned forward, resting his chin on his fists. Lou turned away from him and walked toward the
stairway. She absent-mindedly licked her left palm and rubbed it against the recurrent dermatitis on
the back of her right hand. That odd habit had become another just-one-more-thing-that-she-does,
Nat thought, ever since the day the County's Human Relations manager informed her that she needn't
do anything anymore.
District cutbacks; taxpayers demand more efficiency...and how did
vote on the most recent bond
He'd come home that night, the night Lou was laid off, to find her sitting in darkness at the table in the
breakfast nook. He'd switched on the overhead kitchen lights; Lou had a portable phone in one hand
and two buckets of piss and vinegar where her eyes used to be. Her free hand swooped over the
wastebasket by the table, her fingernails flicking at the junk mail and utility bills crumpled within.
"It's a record economy," she'd grinned up at him, "and I'm being recycled."
* * *
Nat drooped down the hall to the kitchen, motioning with his hand for Lou to accompany him. "I ran
into Jack Iboshi at the hardware store. He said he'd haul in the damn can for us, but as a friend and
neighbor he felt it incumbent upon himself to let us know that we are in violation of the CC&Rs."
"Incumbent?" Lou leaned against the refrigerator and smirked. "Is that right? Jack's re-runnin' for
something that I didn't even vote for the first time?"
"No, not quite," Nat softly chuckled. "The CC&Rs..."
"Covenants, Codes and Restrictions. We signed them at the closing, remember? We initialed and
signed papers that stated we had read and agreed to adhere to the..."
"Never in all my life would I agree to
to anything." Lou shuddered. "You know how I feel about
bein' stuck. Besides, I can't remember half of what we signed that day. Do you? Musta been fifty
papers with the same information arranged different, over and over again. They coulda snuck
anything in there. For all I know I signed a form declarin' my mother-in-law to be the biggest bull dyke
in Multnomah County."
During the clumsy silence that followed her guffaws at her own joke, Lou wondered yet again why
people referred to her husband as 'Nat.' Indeed, she did remember the closing at the First National
Title Company. She remembered that her husband had signed the house papers, as he had signed
their marriage license, and checks and receipts and other Important Documents, with his full name:
Nathan Samuel Suerlin. It was a name that, to Lou, had always seemed more full than necessary.
She'd never known this alleged Nathan, but she'd loved, married and now puzzled over the Nat.
"Put a 'G' in front of it," she mumbled, "and it'd make some sense. Buzzin' round my head and..."
"What's that?" Nat asked.
"Nothin'. Never mind."
* * *
Nat ambled down the hall toward the front door. Peering through the entryway's stained glass
window, he could spot the garbage can by the curb; looking back down the hall, he could see Lou
sprawled on the sofa, pretending to read the newspaper. Nat wondered at what point exactly in their
eight-year marriage had Lou acquired the faux-countrified habit of dropping her g's? Maybe that was
what she was talking — not talkin' — about. Dropping her g's, stooping her shoulders, wearing those
vastly unbecoming, sloppy, floppy housedresses — it was as if, at age thirty-four, she had decided to
pull a reverse Garbo. Perhaps she found it glamorous, in a mutant kind of way, to affect the
comportment of a middle-aged bumpkin.
She can have all the midlife crises she wants; she can have them ahead of schedule, like the gifted child
she claims she was. My foot goes down if she starts drooling at trailer parks.
Nat ran his fingers around his jaw and looked out again at the can. Maybe Lou was right. The can
was starting to belong, which was more than he could say for himself. He'd noticed the stares, the
pointing, and the not-so-stifled snickers.
The neighborhood dump.
The Daystrom boys across the
street and their posse of sappy-brained, baggy-ass pants-wearing, white boy homeboy wannabes
practiced skateboard tricks at the end of the cul-de-sac, and made frequent pilgrimages to fast food
joints. The other morning as he was leaving for work he'd stopped the car at the end of the driveway
and peeked inside the garbage can. Nat had half-expected to find a tattooed gerbil with a nose ring
dumped inside the can, or at least a load of greasy taco wrappers or partially gnawed McLardo
burgers. But when he gingerly lifted the lid he saw that the can was completely empty, and almost
immaculately clean.
* * *
Nat shivered and pulled the covers up and around his shoulders. He raised his head, aiming his bleary
eyes in the direction of his nightstand. He could barely make out the laser-red LED of the alarm clock:
3:13 am. Nat rolled over; Lou was sitting up, straight as a silo, at the edge of the bed. She was
staring out the window, which she had opened. Nat heard the rustle of leaves drifting in the night's
timid breeze.
"I want a divorce," Lou whispered.
"No. No, you don't." Nat raised himself up on one elbow. "It'll be all right." He placed his hand on her
shoulder. "I'll bring the can in."
"Leave it." Lou placed her hand over Nat's. "Leave it, Nathan." She lightly caressed his hand with her
fingertips; the hair on his arms quivered, and he sat up and moved behind her.
"I don't want it in the garage, or near the house." She continued to gaze out the window. "I want it
where I can keep an eye on it. It's practically a full-time job, you know. Keeping track of things."
"Yes, I know."
Lou leaned back, resting her head against the slope between Nat's shoulder and collarbone. She
used to say that they fit together, she and Nat, like a creek in a hollow, whatever that meant. Nat
shuddered with memory, and circled his arms around her stomach.
"Besides, it's empty. Why does it matter if it just sits there?" She tapped her finger against his.
"We're only — or is it already? — thirty-four and thirty-seven. And we have this? Snotty recycling
services and CCRs."
Nat noticed something shimmering by the foot of Lou's nightstand. The front page of the business
section lay on the floor, the sallow white newsprint reflecting the moonlight. The lead article, an
interview with a local entrepreneur, had been highlighted with a fluorescent yellow marker.
No good
reasons for not working. You'd have to be a blind fool not to be able to find a job in this market.
Nat picked up the newspaper and rolled it into a slender baton. There was the whiff of ice in the mid-
autumn air; he stumbled to the closet for coat and gloves.
Leaving the lights off, Nat felt his way down the stairs and out to the garage. He unrolled the
newspaper and started to place it in the appropriate recycling bin, then did an about-face and
unlocked the side door to the garage. He strode to the curb, raised the garbage can lid and deposited
the newspaper inside.
Nat strolled around the circle of his cul-de-sac, surveying each of the nine houses in turn. Mindful of
the home security system signs that sneered out at him from behind overgrown azalea bushes and
potted dune grass, he collected that which had been left out on front porches: a size 11 boys'
basketball sneaker; a wooden, craftsy, wreath-shaped plaque depicting two blue and white geese
honking "Welcome to our Home;" a plastic toy Phillips's head screwdriver; a well-weathered, canvas
fanny pack with a water bottle pouch; a yellow porcelain catfood dish.
Nat headed for home, his arms filled with the purloined treasure. He stood in his driveway and looked
up to the open bedroom window. Lou, her hands cupped over her nose and mouth, perched silent
and watchful on the inside edge of the windowsill.
Scanning the dark, cloudless heavens, Nat strained to make out the only constellation he could identify
on a regular basis, other than the Big and Little Dippers — which don't really count, he reminded
himself, as any fool can spot those.
Three in a row, the belt, the sword's sheath. There it is. Orion the Hunter, shining and watchful, for all
Nathan Samuel Suerlin dipped his head in respect and recognition.
Nat dumped his armful into the garbage can, topping off the load with piles of sodden maple leaves he
scooped up from around the can's base. He did not close the garbage can lid. And when Nat rang his
own doorbell, Lou answered.
"C'mon." Nat held out his hand. Lou was pajama-ed, coatless, and barefoot. She tip-toed arm-in-arm
with him down the front walkway to the sidewalk and beyond the garbage can, whose lid she slapped
shut in passing.
"Mmmm." Lou inhaled sharply, filling her nose and lungs with the early morning dampness. "It smells
good. Like dirt. Like rich soil after the first rain."
"Look." Nat ushered her into the street and spun her around in front of him. "Look up." He stood
behind her, his arms wrapped around her shoulders, his chin pressing down on the back of her head.
"Have you ever seen it this clear? There's Orion, and the really bright star by the horizon might
actually be Venus. There's that small, W-shaped one, I can never remember its name. And the Big
"Shhh." Lou reached up and rested her fingertips against his lips. "Any fool can spot that one."

Georgetown may get to reprise its aborted season opener against Florida after all.
Drawing the No. 2 seed in the NCAA tournament's South Region, the Hoyas are on track for a round-of-16 meeting with Florida in the second weekend, assuming results follow the seeding. The teams' highly touted Nov. 9 game aboard the USS Bataan was halted at halftime, with Florida leading 27-23, when condensation turned the flight deck's court into a hazardous slick. Efforts to reschedule failed, and it went down as a "no contest" in the record books.

It's the little things, isn't it?

That's all part of what makes Walt Disney World a special place but… is it the only part? Is it the best part? Is it even the biggest part? Would it even be Walt Disney World without the little things?

Saludos Walt (Wade's Wayback Machine) by Wade Sampson
Walt Disney definitely needed a vacation in 1941. He was in debt to Bank of America for more than $3 million. World War II had closed the European markets to his animated features, so films like Pinocchio suffered financially. There was an acrimonious labor strike going on at the Disney Studios in Burbank that Walt took as a personal attack and always suspected the strike was Communist inspired.

To the Editor:
How many African-Americans understand or know what the media is talking about when they mention the "Ayn Rand philosophy?"
Many African-Americans while in college may or may not had to study or research this philosophy. While in a library in 1978 looking for something to read, I came across a book with her philosophy (the reading was not well received by me and at that time I had no skepticism about our leaders in Congress, Democrat or Republican).
Young African-Americans with today' communication tools should take a minute and Google Ayn Rand Philosophy. Then you maybe able to understand the correlation between a community like Petersburg and the proposed draconian budget cuts of Rand Paul, Paul Ryan and money off-shore Mitt Romney which are just an extension of previous conservative policies that make the poor (people in poverty) contingent on a set of mean-spirited programs and rules.
When you believe deeply in the hatred for government with disgust for poor people, are you an Ayn Rand type, tea partier or both?

Plagued by drought and homeowner recalcitrance, California building officials last summer relaxed the rules for greywater use, allowing residents to hook up their washing machines to garden hoses without a permit … because they were doing it anyway.
On Aug. 4, the California Building Standards Commission effectively caught up with an eco-revolution that began here 20 years ago during the last drought. In 1989, the County of Santa Barbara became the first agency in the United States to change its building codes and legalize the use of household greywater — the slightly dirty wastewater from washing machines, bathtubs, showers and bathroom sinks — to irrigate backyard plants and trees. By 1992, the practice was legal in most western states, including California.
There was just one problem. Homeowners were installing greywater systems themselves without permits, or they hired plumbers who looked the other way. Over 20 years in Santa Barbara, city officials say, only four residents ever obtained greywater permits, much less paid the fees, set at $350 today. Meanwhile, hundreds, if not thousands, embraced do-it-yourself "laundry-to-landscape" diversions, bought biodegradable soap, connected their washers to outside tubes — if you actually hook it up to garden hose you can expect a burnt-out pump before long — and emptied buckets of bath water in their yards.
The Greywater Guerrillas, a Bay Area group that billed itself as part of the "Water Underground," helped spread the know-how, and by 1999, according to a survey by the Soap and Detergent Association, nearly 14 percent of California homeowners were using greywater in their backyards. Today, that would be about 1.7 million households operating largely under the radar of city and county building inspectors. That growth is reflected in the Guerillas' name, which has changed to Greywater Action.
"August 4th was California Greywater Liberation Day," said Art Ludwig, a Santa Barbara pioneer of greywater systems who was hired by the city this year to lobby for the permit exemption. "It's the poster child for reforming the building code to a new way of doing things. You have to trust people more: There's no way around it."
Doug Hensel, who supervised the drafting of the new standards as assistant deputy director of the state Department of Housing and Community Development, believes they will help bring greywater use into the mainstream. The state estimates that a family of four could save up to 22,000 gallons of water per year by diverting laundry water alone.
"We're hoping it catches on," Hensel said. "It's pretty neat."
The new rules went into effect for 180 days as an emergency measure in the third year of a serious drought. They are subject to a 45-day period of public comment and are expected to return to the building commission for final action in mid-November.
Greywater Do's and Don'ts: Do: * Frequently check your plants for evidence of over watering or damage from organic material in greywater. * Use greywater only for flood or drip irrigation. * Divert greywater to your sewer or septic system if you are laundering diapers or dyeing clothes. * Structure your irrigation system so it doesn't waste water by letting it percolate beyond the root zone. * Use PVC or ABS piping. Don't: * Drink your greywater! * Reuse water that contains hazardous chemicals from photo labs, car parts or oily rags. * Allow your greywater to pond because it can increase health risks and provide breeding grounds for mosquitoes. * Reuse greywater for spray irrigation. * Irrigate root or leaf crops (such as carrots or lettuce) that you'll eat. * Reuse greywater if family members suffer from infectious diseases, such as diarrhea, hepatitis or internal parasites. |
Building officials, plumbing unions and representatives for a number of California cities opposed lifting the mandatory permit requirement for household greywater systems, saying homeowners could make mistakes out of ignorance. Some city and county officials told the commission they would recommend that their agencies pass ordinances to restore the permit requirement if the state changed the rules.
"I think people are really dismissing the health risks of greywater systems a little cavalierly," said Tom Enslow, an attorney for the California State Pipe Trades Council, representing union plumbers and pipe fitters.
But the move toward more lenience had the support of the state Department of Public Health and such diverse groups as the California Building Industry Association and the Natural Resources Defense Council, an international environmentalist group. There is no documented case of greywater ever making anyone sick.
Specifically, the new standards allow homeowners to use up to 250 gallons of greywater per day on their landscaping without a permit, if they follow a list of 12 do's and don'ts. Arizona set the national precedent for relaxed greywater rules in 2001, and New Mexico and Texas soon followed suit.
"Finally, California is catching up; it does my heart good," said Val Little, executive director of the Water Conservation Alliance of Southern Arizona, a consortium of water districts, cities and state and county agencies that studied the potential risk of greywater use in the 1990s and concluded it was safe.
Today, Arizona offers up to $1,000 in tax credits to homeowners who install greywater systems. And beginning in June 2010, all new commercial buildings in Tucson must be plumbed to allow for future greywater hookups, with separate pipes to collect greywater from washing machines, showers, bathroom sinks and tubs.
"Greywater should be viewed as a very important source of water," Little said. "It just makes common sense. People are not going to mess in their own nests."
Greywater reuse is low-tech and cheap compared to recycling "black water" from toilets, kitchen sinks and dishwashers. Sewage recycling requires expensive treatment to meet drinking water standards; the purified water must be pumped back into the ground or the local reservoir, then back into homes. And black water destined for agricultural use still requires treatment, as Miller-McCune reported during the summer.
The California permit exemption for greywater reuse applies to small-scale projects in residential buildings only. Gone are the requirements for soils percolation tests and burial of irrigation lines under nine inches of dirt. Two inches of mulch covering the lines is now acceptable. Homeowners are not allowed to divert black water, including washing machine water that has been used to wash dirty diapers. Homeowners may not spray greywater on the ground, where it could form smelly puddles.
Greywater is not safe to drink, but any pathogens or organic material in it are quickly broken down and used up in the topsoil. Greywater can be safely used to irrigate ornamental plants and fruit trees but not root crops.
Water conservationists today talk about the benefits of "cascading" water quality — the notion that drinking water should flow to the bathtub and, once used, from there to the backyard, carrying nutrients to ornamental plants and fruit trees.
"People will realize that they can use less water and have the same lifestyle if they use the water twice," said Larry Farwell, a water efficiency consultant who, as a Goleta Water District employee, pushed for the legalization of greywater in Santa Barbara County in 1989.
In some western states, the idea has not yet caught on. Greywater advocates in Nevada tried this year but failed to reform the law to allow for household greywater use, bucking strong opposition from the Southern Nevada Water Authority. The water authority recycles all of Las Vegas's household water, and it gets one gallon of Colorado River water from Lake Mead for every gallon of recycled water it puts back in.
"We can stretch our allocation by more than two-thirds," said Scott Huntley, a water authority spokesman. "We didn't want the legislation to potentially harm that system."
But Launce Rake, a spokesman for the Progressive Leadership Alliance of Nevada, a coalition of 25 union, environmental and social service organizations, said that easing the rules for greywater use would save on major energy costs. The water authority presently must pump recycled water to Lake Mead and back uphill to Las Vegas.
"We have a responsibility to use water efficiently," Rake said. "We could be doing so much better in Las Vegas."
Back in California, Greywater Action with its name change has also become a nonprofit group. Laura Allen, a co-founder who lives in Oakland, has quit her job as an elementary schoolteacher to work full-time as a greywater educator.
"It's a really wonderful and positive change for California, looking towards a future of being more sustainable with our water use," Allen said. "Cities and counties will be able to promote it."
In Santa Barbara, nearly 300 people packed into greywater workshops conducted this summer by Ludwig, the greywater pioneer, and they watched a portion of his new how-to DVD. Ludwig told the audience that California was going back to its roots — just look at the old stone fountain and wash basin in front of the "Queen of the Missions" in Santa Barbara, he said. The historic record notes that Indians washed and scrubbed their clothes on the sloping bricks of the basin in the early 1800s, and that water running out of the basin went on to irrigate the fields.

This is a scare because there is a lot of killing going on there at the end two lovers win at the end it is a sad story lots of people die in it after he games she went back to her family her sister was really happy to sea her again when was katniss really happy to sea her her sister again and she came a hugged her. Quick, fun, easy read. Enjoyed it, but not enough to read the rest of the series. Finally read it! Normally I read the books before watching the movies, but with "The Hunger Games" it happened kind of backwards. The book is a little more graphic and chilling in spots, and the writing in present tense threw me at first, but I soon adapted. It's hard to write well in present tense, so kudos to Suzanne Collins for pulling it off so well. I really enjoyed seeing everything from Katniss's point of view. I also continue to really like Peeta; he's such a sweet person. Despite the present tense and first person perspective, I still felt a little...disconnected from the story. I'm not sure why, unless watching the movie first spoiled it a little. I'm going to try to read the rest in the series before the third movie comes out to see if that feeling changes. Not sure what took me so long to pick this up. Amazing!!! LOVED IT ALL. الفكره رائعه جدا وذكيه فى نفس الوقت وكانها تحكى مايحدث من سيطره امريكا على الدول العربيه لكن الكاتبه بنت عالم اخر تحكمه الكابتول وتحت سيطرتها 13 مقاطعه ارادت مقاطعه ان تتمرد على الكابتول فسحقتها وجعلت يوم الانقلاب مباراه تاخذ من كل مقاطعه فتاه 12 ل 18 بنظام القرعه حتى تاخذهم لمكان هى صنعته وتبدا مباراه كل شخص يقتل الاخر من اجل الحياه ويفوز شخص واحد لكن بطله الروايه ستكسر القاعده الروايه مشوقه واحداثها رائعه الا انها كانت تحتاج الى تفاصيل اكثر وحبكه اكثر لكنى احببت الروايه اكثر من الفيلم :) تستحق خمس نجوم لانها جعلتنى متشوقه لان اكون متشوقه لاعرف
The concept of the book isn't particularly original — a nearly identical premise is explored in "Battle Royale," a wondrously gruesome Japanese novel that has been spun off into a popular manga series. Nor is there anything spectacular about the writing — the words describe the action and little else. But the considerable strength of the novel comes in Collins's convincingly detailed world-building and her memorably complex and fascinating heroine. In fact, by not calling attention to itself, the text disappears in the way a good font does: nothing stands between Katniss and the reader, between Panem and America. The Hunger Games isn't exactly a deep work of literature, but it is a fun, exciting adventure story with a cool, believable female hero. And a entertainingly bleak, dystopian world with just enough of a reflection of our own reality to be thought-provoking. And most of all, a media-savvy story of on-camera slaughter by a former television professional. Good stuff, check it out. As negative Utopias go, Suzanne Collins has created a dilly. The United States is gone. North America has become Panem, a TV-dominated dictatorship run from a city called the Capitol. The rest of Panem is divided into 12 Districts (the former 13th had the bad judgment to revolt and no longer exists). Is contained inIs parodied inHas as a reference guide/companion

Long ago the districts waged war on the Capitol and were defeated. As part of the surrender terms, each district agreed to send one boy and one girl to appear in an annual televised event called, "The Hunger Games."

Makes one wonder if there is an ulterior motive of the current Secret Service organisation.....
I too lived through the "Kennedy" years. I must say that the grandfather of the author's friend hit the nail on the head. I reside in Dallas and I am appalled at the gauche festivities that are currently, and through the weekend, will be, going on. I shivered when Obama started being 'lionized' in the same fashion as Kennedy by the ill informed and the media. While we will never know the outcome of a lst, and possibly 2nd, term of presidency for Kennedy -- we can only imagine that our country might have suffered today's suffering 50 years sooner.

Do they not remember the ACORN videos brought on by someone going into an office and presenting a problem and videotaping their response? Did they not think that someone, somewhere, would, possibly, to the same thing? Amazed.
In response to:
This just keeps getting better and better.......
Incompetency exposed! Obviously unknowing, this guy is seeking to get the Constitution changed in less than three years. Seriously? Both branches of Congress must vote with 2/3rds to send a change to the States for a passage of 2/3rds of their legislatures. These clowns in Congress haven't been able to come up with a budget for the past 4 years....does he really think that l) they could accomplish this action in the appointed time; or, 2) that State Legislatures could accomplish this action in the appointed time? Remember, every state has different meeting times. Example: in Texas they meet only every other year. This is such a bunch of garbage brought about by more amateurish thoughts. Spare me.
I do not live in NYC. But, seriously, are voters there really considering this pervert for mayor?
NOLA residents were given a three day warning. NOLA residents had a mayor that chose not to use buses parked in the school yard to assist those needing transportation to evacuate; some NOLA residents chose simply not to leave. More moot points: everyone older than 5 lived through 2000-2008. Not moot: People in Bengazhi couldn't leave; stood at their posts as required by their jobs and were subsequently ignored and allowed to be massacred.
Have you ever noticed that many cannot stand good looking women in the running? If you are good looking: you must be illiterate. If you are good looking: you must be a trousers' chaser. If you are good looking: You must not have the family background to attend a elite Eastern college. Words that come out of good looking women who are advancing their political cause are generally laughed at.
It is now my turn to laugh:
l)Howard Dean's admission of the wrongness of the membered panel in O'Care that will decide your healthcare fate; 2) Sheila Jackson-Lee
Two things Sarah Palin warned about years ago.
Best line ever:
"not happy about getting dragged into the lewd spectacle that is a low-budget movie version of their masterpiece".
Don't ya just luv karma?!

Sure, that's a corny headline. But this week's Capital Notes Podcast is, in fact, mostly about taxes: the tax proposal from legislative Democrats.
That proposal is a key part of the Dem budget plan offered up earlier this week, a plan that also proposes deeper spending cuts and even a formal suspension of the constitutional school funding guarantee.
The Sacramento Bee's Kevin Yamamura joins me for a look at the budget proposal, as well as its chances for breaking the impasse that's now going strong into its second month.

NHibernate comes along with a nice code generation API that is used, for example, for lazy-loading proxy generation. It can, however, be used for other purposes, such as adding interfaces to the loaded entities, for example, INotifyPropertyChanged coming to my mind. Ayende and José have talked about this in the past, but I decided to publish my own updated version.
It has two parts: a custom NHibernate interceptor class that can be added to Configuration or session creation and a custom Castle DynamicProxy interceptor that is created from the former for each new entity loaded from the DB.
Here's the skeleton. You just have to fill in the blanks to add your own behavior.
public class CustomInterceptor : NHibernate.EmptyInterceptor { class _CustomInterceptor : Castle.DynamicProxy.IInterceptor { private Boolean finishedLoading = false; void Castle.DynamicProxy.IInterceptor.Intercept(IInvocation invocation) { Object target = (invocation.InvocationTarget == null) ? invocation.Proxy : invocation.InvocationTarget; //check if the entity has finished loading if ((invocation.InvocationTarget == null) && (this.finishedLoading == false)) { this.finishedLoading = true; } //TODO: do something before base method call if (invocation.Method.Name.StartsWith("get_") == true) { //getter invocation } else if (invocation.Method.Name.StartsWith("set_") == true) { //setter invocation } else { //method invocation } if (invocation.InvocationTarget != null) { //proceed with base implementation (base getter, setter or method call) invocation.Proceed(); } //TODO: do something after base method call if (invocation.Method.Name.StartsWith("get_") == true) { //getter invocation } else if (invocation.Method.Name.StartsWith("set_") == true) { //setter invocation } else { //method invocation } } } private static readonly ProxyGenerator proxyGenerator = new ProxyGenerator(); private ISession session = null; public static Object CreateProxy(Type type) { List<Type> interfaces = new List<Type>(); //TODO: add interfaces to list Object instance = null; if ((interfaces.Count != 0) && (type.IsSealed == false)) { //TODO: pass any custom parameters to the _CustomInterceptor class instance = proxyGenerator.CreateClassProxy(type, interfaces.ToArray(), new _CustomInterceptor()); } else { instance = Activator.CreateInstance(type); } return(instance); } public static T CreateProxy<T>() where T: class, new() { Type type = typeof(T); return(CreateProxy(type) as T); } public override String GetEntityName(Object entity) { if (entity.GetType().Assembly.FullName.StartsWith("DynamicProxyGenAssembly2") == true) { return (entity.GetType().BaseType.FullName); } else { return (entity.GetType().FullName); } } public override void SetSession(ISession session) { this.session = session; base.SetSession(session); } public override Object Instantiate(String clazz, EntityMode entityMode, Object id) { if (entityMode == EntityMode.Poco) { Type type = Type.GetType(clazz, false); if (type != null) { Object instance = CreateProxy(type); this.session.SessionFactory.GetClassMetadata(clazz).SetIdentifier(instance, id, entityMode); return (instance); } } return (base.Instantiate(clazz, entityMode, id)); } }
You can add the interceptor at two levels:
Here's an example for each:
Configuration cfg = ...; cfg.SetInterceptor(new CustomInterceptor()); ISessionFactory factory = cfg.BuildSessionFactory(); ISession session = factory.OpenSession(new CustomInterceptor());
As you can see, the outer _CustomInterceptor class is the one that NHibernate must know. You should add any interfaces that the proxy should implement. The inner _CustomInterceptor class becomes part of the generated proxy, and the Intercept method will be called for each interceptable (virtual or new) property and method. If you want, you can add code before and after the base call.
I have my own implementation which adds some common interfaces used for data binding, editing and validation: example, INotifyPropertyChanged and example, INotifyPropertyChanging, example, IEditableObject and example, IDataErrorInfo (with the help of NHibernate Validator). Feel free to roll your own!
public static Object CreateProxy(Type type)
method has no Datatype T and the static method can not use "this" in line 065. Can you please fix it?
A example implementation where also good where the placeholder are filled with such as INotifyPropertyChanged.
Sorry, it is fixed.
I may be posting a fully functional example, but, since it isn't hard, why don't you try it for yourself, starting with the samples from Ayende and José?
The Datatype T haven't you fixed. It's still unknown in Line 61, 66, 70.
About the fully functional example:
People search after complete articles where they must not try&error ;)
If I must read other article to understand your article then it's incomplete. And for you it's done in 10 Minutes while many many other readers must invest everyone houres...
Thanks & Best regards
It is (hopefully) fixed now.
As for the full example, you can see Ayende and José's examples and try to replicate it with my code, it is very easy.
Hi, would you please post your implementation with INotifyPropertyChanged and INotifyPropertyChanging?
I'm having difficulty adding logic that checks whether the previous value is different from the current value, and only raising the propertychanged event if they are different.
In my code, if the property is set, I fire the event handler; no checking at all.
Did someone try to use it for a lazy-loaded object graph?
To me it just works just for leafs (the leafs really contain an instance of _CustomInterceptor). Other objects higher in the hiearchy that need to do some lazy loading themselves as contain references to other lazy-loaded objects are being intercepted by NHibernate.Proxy.DefaultLazyInitializer
any ideas?
