Nice place but inexperienced staffPosted Jul 18, 2014
Nice place, strategically located but staff are behave like inexperienced. After check in we went to restaurants for lunch I am surprised to see the menu are very less variety and after one day stay, we request for room make up, the cleaning ream really need more training, they don't know how to set up the bed, leaving the cleaning cloths on the washing basin. And there is always a basic things missing like tea spoon and etc.

Nice hotel on the beach.Posted May 2, 2014
We had a nice stay at Four Points Sheraton in Penang. It had everything we need. The staff were very good on check-in and check-out. I would definitely recommend the sea view room we had as the view on the other side of the hotel was of a busy road. Although, a friend had a room on the road side and he commented on how quiet it was, no road noise. The room itself was very nice, it seemed to be recently refurbished and everything was in great condition.

Heavenly Beds and Warm HospitalityPosted Apr 22, 2014 on Hotels.com
Warm and speedy hospitality at check in from Korean front-desk staff! Friendly too! The bell-boy who was on duty on the 19-22 Apr was especially attentive and hospitable! I think he is from Sri Lanka or India. Four Points Penang Hotel should be very proud to have such staff in their hotel. Haven't really seen such friendly staff even from 5 stars hotels! Room was very tidy and beds were very comfortable with its signature long pillows given. Everywhere we went in the hotel, we were greeted by friendly hotel staff which was impressive! Location of the hotel is abit off the Gurney Drive which is famous for their local food and from the main GeorgeTown however the surrounding and waking up to a sea-front view covers it all. Cab service is available right at the door-step of this hotel however the service could be a few RM more than normal cabs that u flag down outside the hotel. Since you are on a holiday, just enjoy this service for a few RM more at your comfort.This hotel is highly recommended for guests who prefer to take a slower pace in Penang. Very worth the price we paid! We intend to try other 4-Points Hotels in the near future or come back to this hotel.

Close to the beach. Free shuttle services.Posted Apr 21, 2014
Pros: Very close to the beach. Can take an evening stroll along the beach shore in the evening, very relaxing.
Cons: Add on a gym room
Location: Food or restaurants are a little too far away. 15 minutes walk. Supermarket Tesco is like a 25 minutes walk away. The front street has noisy traffic.
Panoramic view of the sea. Comfortable beds, new re-modelings. Free shuttle services to the points of interests in the city.

Great hotel, newer facilities, right on the beachPosted Apr 18, 2014
The hotel has recently been refurbished so everything is practically new. The beds are huge and very comfy. The staff are great and food spread for breakfast awesome too. Only negatives I found was they didn't have a currency exchange or tour desk, which would of been nice. The location is fairly central to the attractions over the island, however not much is within walking distance. We had to get taxi/ bus to Batu Ferenghi most the time for resteraunts and markets and other activities. Overall a good hotel

From a cost perspective, the networking dialogue is dominated by CapEx. Acquisition costs for new networking gear have historically been tied to hardware, and despite the relatively recent rise of bare metal switching, networking hardware remains a high-stakes business. But SDN is changing this dynamic in potentially significant ways.
The first point to clarify when talking about CapEx is that CapEx does not necessarily mean hardware (at least not the way that most people mean). While there is a strict financial definition for CapEx, in the networking industry it has become shorthand for Procurement Costs. Because networking solutions have been predominantly monetized through hardware, we associate procurement costs with hardware, but this is changing.
The fact that the 'S' in SDN stands for software is reason enough for people to look beyond the chassis. But the reality is that while vendors have monetized the hardware, the value has been increasingly moving to the software side for more than a decade. So long as everyone was selling hardware, it didn't really matter that much whether the cost was tied to the hardware or the software, so we have been a little bit lazy collectively in determining a deliberate pricing mix.
More recently, however, there have been additional solutions that are offered entirely through software. With virtual networking devices, for example, there is no physical hardware (unless you count the servers and the network that connects the servers). A common sales tactic for these types of solutions is to point out how expensive physical solutions are. Why pay for all that sheet metal when you can get the same functionality in a virtual form factor? Of course, you are not really paying for the sheet metal; your check also pays for the software and all the features that go into that sheet metal. But the argument is pretty compelling.
The point here is that the only thing that really matters is how much you pay for the whole solution. Whether the price is affixed to hardware or software is an accounting detail – important for some people, but not really the most important thing for the majority of buyers. Rather than calling it CapEx, we ought to be referring more broadly to procurement or acquisition costs. All in, Solution A costs X dollars to bring in house, and Solution B costs Y dollars.
This would certainly simplify the conversation some. But even then, it isn't all about procurement costs anymore either.
Depending on the solution, the procurement costs account for roughly one-third of the total cost of ownership. The remaining two-thirds of the cost is ongoing operating expense (power, cooling, space, management, support, and so on). The models here for most solutions start to get pretty squishy. While we can fairly formulaically determine things like power, space, and support, when it comes to estimating the cost of managing a device, the models are so dependent on uncontrollable things that they border on useless. And even when the models are sound, most companies have not sufficiently instrumented their network operations to really know what they are spending.
But just because it is difficult to model OpEx does not mean that network teams should ignore it.
If there is one thing that the gaming industry has taught us, it is that there are all kinds of creative ways to separate someone from their money. In the early days of video games, 100% of the cost was procurement cost. After you bought the install media, you had paid everything you were ever going to pay. Before long, some of the more popular games figured out that they could lower initial costs (make the barrier to entry lower) and then charge for ongoing use through subscriptions.
As the networking world adjusts the pricing mix – associating more of the cost with the software – we should expect that charge models will mirror what we have seen on the consumer side. It is not a big stretch (and in fact already happening) to see massive up-front hardware costs replaced with more palatable hardware pricing combined with either higher software or potentially support costs. This has the dual benefit of making it easier for customers to select a vendor, and creating annuities for said vendor.
But the evolution of game pricing models did not end with subscriptions.
For anyone who has gotten sucked into the hell that is Candy Crush, you are already well aware of in-app purchases. The initial game is free, but if you want to get a special advantage or unlock a level, you can make an in-app purchase. They have cleverly priced the in-app purchases to feel like you are hardly spending anything. It's less than a dollar. I should just go ahead and get that spotted donut thingy! Of course, by the time you add up all those just a dollar moments, you end up paying far more than you ever would have up front.
The magic of this type of pricing is that most of this is not really known up front. When you first get Candy Crush, you don't really think you are going to buy the special extras. And Candy Crush doesn't tell you that the levels get progressively harder to the point that they are nigh impossible without a little extra help.
Before you write this off as not applicable to networking, consider a few points.
First, despite the huge open source push, there are still a lot of companies pursuing commercial grade versions of the otherwise free software. Sure, you might buy into the open source controller, but if you need the networking version of the spotted donut thing, what do you do? This is essentially the networking equivalent of the in-app purchase. Call it the in-arch purchase. Once you buy into a particular architecture, the switching costs are prohibitively high. If you have to pay more for the commercial software, can you really say no?
Second, some of the tiered pricing models that are taking root make it more difficult to accurately model ongoing license costs. If you are not thinking about how the costs will scale with the number of ports, users, VMs, or whatever, you might find out down the road that your solution is contributing more ongoing costs than anticipated. For example, buying one VM from Amazon might seem easy enough, but what if you need thousands? It doesn't stay cheap forever.
Maybe the in-arch costs are just extra features or capabilities. Or ongoing support and services. Whatever the source, these types of costs contribute to the ongoing operating expenses. And because the primary purchasing criterion is CapEx (procurement costs), burying some of these costs a little later in the product lifecycle and making them a bit smaller in magnitude (but larger in volume) will be attractive.
The punch line here is that we are on the cusp of a change in monetization strategies. You might think that pricing and costs will be transparent, but has the networking community given us a real reason to believe that to date? If you think so, consider this: why do buyers celebrate 50% discounts? It's because pricing is ridiculously obfuscated in this industry. Until we all start expecting more, I just don't know why this would change.
Along those lines, my colleague Bill Koss posted some facts about Plexxi costs. In the interest of transparency, it's worth taking a look here.
[Today's fun fact: The wettest spot in the world is located on the island of Kauai. Mt. Waialeale consistently records rainfall at the rate of nearly 500 inches per year. That's enough so drown 7 6-foot-tall men standing on each other's heads.]

As more applications and services move "to the cloud" (public or on-premise) cloud environments are increasingly adopting and building out traditional enterprise features. This in turn is enabling and encouraging cloud adoption from enterprise users. In many ways the definition is blurring as features like continuous operation, geo-distribution or on-demand capacity become the norm. NuoDB is involved in both building enterprise software and using enterprise cloud capabilities. In his session at 15th Cloud Expo, Seth Proctor, CTO at NuoDB, Inc., will discuss the experiences from building, deploying and using enterprise services and suggest some ways to approach moving enterprise applications into a cloud model.

Enterprises require the performance, agility and on-demand access of the public cloud, and the management, security and compatibility of the private cloud. The solution? In his session at 15th Cloud Expo, Simone Brunozzi, VP and Chief Technologist(global role) for VMware, will explore how to unlock the power of the hybrid cloud and the steps to get there. He'll discuss the challenges that conventional approaches to both public and private cloud computing, and outline the tough decisions that must be made to accelerate the journey to the hybrid cloud. As part of the transition, an Infrastructure-as-a-Service model will enable enterprise IT to build services beyond their data center while owning what gets moved, when to move it, and for how long. IT can then move forward on what matters most to the organization that it supports – availability, agility and efficiency.

That sounds awesome! That reminds me, I should register an account soon. ^^
Sorry, the last week or so has been hell. I had a friends birthday, then some job interviews, and my aunt passed away. I'm gonna be snowed in for the next few days though so I can tidy up the constitution and post it.
Whoa, sorry to hear that^
Job interviews are more important than constitutions, even if it is for Midgard.
I'm the most armed in this place. Everyone watch out what they say, or a juicy golden projectile may be coming their way.
And my condolences for the loss of your aunt. May you find comfort with each other in mourning her.
and have the shortest average lifespan in Midgard... I need to rethink this.
Hi Silvadus! Will we see you at the Cross Regional Summer Games in August?
Pokes Silvy*
Depends how busy I am at the time. I've been very busy lately.

Chiefs hero climbs off sickbed to help champs
Relevant offers
Super Rugby
Two-try hero Tim Nanai-Williams personified the character of the Chiefs when he hauled himself off his sickbed to deliver the defining performance of the defending champions' Super Rugby opener.
Nanai-Williams woke on match day in Dunedin at 5am and rushed immediately to the bathroom where he spent most of the morning. The last thing he could think about was running out in the unfamiliar position of centre in front of nearly 20,000 fans at Forsyth Barr Stadium.
He told his coaches he didn't think he could fulfil his duties that night against the Highlanders. His energy reserves were on empty and his head was strung out by fever.
They told him not to worry about it, to give everything he could and to trust them that they would remove him from play when it all got too much.
For the record, Nanai-Williams lasted 66 minutes, scored two dazzling game-changing tries and was the principal figure in a statement-making 41-27 victory that saw the Chiefs start their title defence in emphatic fashion.
You wouldn't have known they were down to their third-string hooker (who has yet to play provincial rugby), were forced to play Blues reject Gareth Anscombe at fullback, and missed a quartet of their best backs.
Nanai-Williams' gritty decision to play through his nausea and discomfort must also have inspired his team-mates who took the best shots from the Highlanders and simply overpowered them when the game went on the line.
Many wondered how the little makeshift midfielder with the twinkling feet and the speed to burn would cope in a position where it's hard to avoid physicality.
Cope? He played the house down, standing up Highlanders fullback Ben Smith for a superb first-half try, and then making the defining play of the game in the 65th minute when he swooped on a dropped ball from home flanker John Hardie and dashed 70-odd metres to crush the scarfies in the Zoo intent on celebrating a home victory.
"I'd been sick since 5 o'clock this morning, up and down to the bathroom spewing up and whatnot," said the 23-year-old after the game. "I was just happy we got five points today and now I'm ready to go home and jump in my bed."
His commitment says a lot about what these Chiefs are about. They have a culture about digging deep and doing what it takes.
When Nanai-Williams slipped through a gap for his opening try and made mincemeat of Smith's last line of defence, he said: "I didn't even know I was on the tryline, I was that wasted and feeling really nauseous."
As well as character, the Chiefs have depth and ability. The loose forwards were dominant, led by a commanding performance from Sam Cane who made a big early statement about the pecking order at No 7 in the absence of Richie McCaw.
Their tight five won the set-piece battle and laid enough of a platform for those dangerous backs to run in four scintillating tries. And the bench battle was a resounding victory for the visitors, who showed that they're right in the title mix again.
"We've got pretty good depth, and really good spirit," said Chiefs coach Dave Rennie. "You saw that when we got put under pressure a few times and the boys hung in there and scrambled bloody well and turned some of that into points. We're really happy. It was a great effort."

great job, I absolutely love the chest... whimsical
have drawers tucked underneath, there's plenty of room for the girls' odds and ends.
Update a chest of drawersIf your chest of drawers is looking a bit tired, why not give it a new lease of life and wallpaper the drawer fronts? Pick a favourite design – or push the look and cover each drawer in a
a different pattern. The bold orange paper on this chest ties in nicely with the flowery rug. Très jolie!
If you really want to make that secondhand dresser you bought look spiffy, go a step further than a coat of paint. Cover the drawers in wallpaper and, for heaven's sake, splurge on some nice pulls.

Vandals strike at Maryport watchtower
Last updated at 20:13, Thursday, 19 July 2012
Damage worth thousands of pounds has been caused by vandals at Maryport's Senhouse Roman Museum.
Part of the museum's watchtower may have to be dismantled and replaced after youths broke in on Saturday evening.
Jane Laskey, curator, said she was horrified when she arrived on Sunday to find that plasterboard walls had been kicked in and prints of historic events pulled off the wall and thrown into a nearby field.
It is believed the vandals had been drinking and smoking inside.
The watchtower had to be closed because attempts had been made to lift up wooden platforms, from which visitors can look over the Solway Firth.
She said: "We don't know how much it will cost to repair the damage but it does look as though some of the watchtower will have to be dismantled in order to get it fixed.
"We were lucky that some helpful joiners were willing to make the walkways safe so we could open to the public again."
She added: "The museum is one of Maryport's greatest assets and it is so disheartening to see this wanton and totally pointless vandalism."
The Watchtower was erected in 2000 as the museum's millennium project.
Anyone with information should call police on 101.

Mark Brownrigg, Director-General of the UK Chamber of Shipping on the European Parliament rejection of proposals for a levy on ship recycling:
"The UK Chamber of Shipping looks forward to significant improvements of social and environmental standards in ship recycling facilities around the world after the European Parliament today voted against proposals for a levy on recycling that would have severely impaired progress.
"The UK Chamber has been working intensively to ensure that UK MEPs were fully aware of the proposed levy's consequences on ships calling at EU ports, which would have deterred uptake of the truly international Hong Kong Convention, designed to improve standards for workers and the environment in recycling facilities globally.
"Without the ratification of the Hong Kong Convention, the poor standards encountered in some facilities around the world would be perpetuated and a levy also had the potential to harm European trade, as well as driving more transport onto the continent's roads with consequent rises in traffic and greenhouse gas emissions.
"We thank all those MEPs who voted against the amendments, so avoiding harmful consequences across a range of areas. Also invaluable in spreading the word on this important issue have been the shipping and ports associations of other EU states, and the international associations ECSA, ICS and ESPO."

In his session at 1st Annual Government IT Conference & Expo (GovITExpo.com), Harry Foxwell of Sun Microsystems Federal will review and discuss the benefits and trade-offs of applying the various virtualization techniques within the cloud.
GovITExpo, which is being held October 6, 2009 in Washington, DC, builds on the success of SYS-CON's Cloud Computing Expo, the fastest-growing conference anywhere in the world devoted to the delivery of massively scalable IT as a service using Internet technologies. Data storage, security and software services are among the major themes of the technical program.
About the Speaker:
Dr Harry Foxwell is Chief Technologist, Sun Microsystems Federal, Inc.
Cloud Computing is one three main tracks. According to the Washington Post this week, the U.S. Census Bureau is using Salesforce's cloud to manage the activities of about 100,000 partner organizations across the country. And the Defense Department's technology arm has already set up a cloud to let the military rent storage space or use remote software programs. Companies like online application provider NetSuite have shifted their focus to federal sales, on the basis that what works for Enterprise IT can also work for Government.
There will be breakout sessions on the security issues that are unique to the Cloud, such as the crucial distinction between Private and Public clouds. There will be sessions too on the Data.gov vision of Vivek Kundra, America's first Chief Information Officer. Expert speakers from government and the software industry alike will be looking at issues such as the requirements for how companies can handle government information and how information can be most successfully shared by multiple clouds.
With major companies like Amazon, Microsoft, IBM, Sun, HP and Google all currently championing various cloud computing offerings for the federal government, there will be no shortage of exhibitors either on the Expo Floor.
Doing more with less is the new reality for most IT departments, and the Government is no exception. So the cost-effectiveness of technologies such as Virtualization will also be foremost on the agenda.
Alongside the Cloud Computing and SOA & Virtualization tracks there will also be a third standalone track on Security & Compliance.
"Our organizing principle at GovITExpo is that, through our intensive two-day schedule of keynotes, general and breakout sessions, attending delegates will be assured of leaving the event with abundant resources, ideas and examples they can apply immediately to whatever federal agency they work for or with - helping agencies to maximize performance, minimize cost and improve the efficiency and scalability of their IT initiatives," said Jeremy Geelan, Sr. Vice-President, SYS-CON Events.
