3.26/5 rDev -17.7%
Thanks to GRG1313 for sharing this one at his tasting.
Pours a clear gold with a foamy bone head that fades to nothing. Tiny dots of lace form around the glass on the drink down. Smell is sour with malt, funk, and vinegar aromas. Taste is much the same with sour malt, vinegar, fruit, and funk flavors on the finish. There is a mild amount of acidity on the palate with each sip. This beer has a lower level of carbonation with a slightly crisp mouthfeel. Overall, this is an above average beer that is drinkable but I am getting vinegar qualities in both the smell and taste.

3.18/5 rDev -19.7%
an interesting beer, highly hyped after the reception of their kriek. from what i understand this is one of their first forays into wild ales, so some flaws are excusable, but this is brutally overpriced at over 20 bucks a bottle. at that price its a real letdown. blonde in color, clear for the most part, and only showing a half inch of white head that fades fast. a peculiar nose that is both tart and sweet, sweetness from the bourbon barrels i gather, but i don't get anything else from the barrel in nose or taste. first sip the huge body jumps out at me, its tough to swallow, being acidic and sweet at the end, its a strange mouthfeel, a little sloppy really, and just not that sour. all in all, i found this beer to be devoid of much real flavor. an introductory sour maybe, for those that don't like all the dry acidity, but you can't make an introductory sour cost so much, people won't go for that, as least i don't think they will, or should, i don't know, but i was unimpressed for the most part. exposed alcohol too, this may do well with a little age, but as it a stands now it is utterly forgettable. frustratingly costly and unremarkable.

Pours a hazy, copper color. 1/4 inch head of an off-white color. Slight retention and slight lacing. Smells of liquor, wood, alcohol, tartness, hint of hop, and slight sweet malt, Fits the style of an American Wild Ale. Mouth feel is sharp and crisp, with an average carbonation level. There is also a strong tartness and slight dryness. Tastes of tartness, hint of hops, slight liquor, slight wood, strong alcohol, and slight sweet malt. Overall, weak appearance, but good aroma, feel, body, and blend. Not quite as complex as I would have liked, but still well blended.

3.88/5 rDev -2%
Poured from the 25.3 ounce bottle with the swing top cap into a Belgian tulip glass.
The pour produces very little head and only after I more aggressively pour does it leave a half finger thick head that is fizzy and champagne-like and immediately dissipates. The liquid is copper orange and shows slight carbonation, golden hues and some transparency.
The nose is very sour and tart and there are some fruity notes I get immediately. The fruity smells remind me of apricot and peach and other orchard-like gems. There is also slight yeastiness.
Very little variation emerges on the tongue, but what I do get, I like. There's still some peachiness, but of the tart variety like when the fruit isn't entirely ripe. I do get hints of sweet berry in there as well.
I really enjoy the way this beer drinks. It's slightly creamy, alternately tart and bittersweet, and there is some airy effervescence in there as well.
This is a good beer and I could certainly enjoy it again, however, I have reservations about such a pricey beer that doesn't necessarily offer the complexity you'd expect given the price tag.

Hazy light gold color, very thin off white head, thin collar. Aroma is tart, dry, grassy some diacetyl that presents itself as green apple. Taste is very similar: grassy, tart, dry and a touch of sour funk. Very light body, tartness is enjoyable on the tongue, light-medium carbonation.

Colored Pencil on slightly rough drawing paper.
size: 14″ × 17″
Nice colouring, well done.
Thank you!
– Kate Eller
Wow! Fantastic, intense colors. Looks like I could pick one up and eat it right now! Yummy!
Thank you so much JanG!
– Kate Eller
Great work!! So real and beautiful colors!
Thank you very much Akiko
– Kate Eller
Gorgeous work. You are a very talented Portrait Artist too- they are simply wow xxx
You are so kind to say so. I appreciate that much much!
– Kate Eller
Well you have won me over with this piece! You seem to have diverse styles with the different mediums. The acrylic paintings have a certain 'old world' illustration feel about them. This one is warm and bright. A wonderful gallery :)
Thank you very much Heidi. Yes, I like to work with all mediums, and I have decided that I really don't have a particular style like a lot of artists do. Don't know if that's a good or bad thing. I just like to experiment.
– Kate Eller
I hope it's a good thing…coz I'm the same! :)
Such rich and truly splendid colours! It's AMAZING in the sense that anyone would tend to think this was a colour photograph created by a BRILLIANT photographer; whose job it was to show how otherwise 'ordinary' things can be shown to be well and truly 'extraordinary'; rather than believing it's actually a coloured in pencil work. You are IMPOSSIBLY talented; it really is as simple as that! ;-)
I'm thinking to myself both of your parents must be extremely 'proud'; I know I would be after having given birth to somebody who is, obviously, a 'GENIUS!'
Awwwwww go on Paul. Thank you, thank you, thank you for your beautiful thoughts about my work. Parents were proud, husband thinks I am impossible sometimes, and I am definitely not a genius…. but I am thrilled to have someone like my work as much as you seem to. You should be a writer, because you are a very deep thinker, have a wonderful imagination, and the gift of expression.
– Kate Eller
Beautiful rich colours and very real and inviting to eat. You are very talented yimusjane.
Thank you for such a super comment. You are so kind. I appreciate your taking time to look.
– Kate Eller
OH MY!!!! Now this just goes to show what can be achieved in coloured pencil if you have a little talent!! Fantastic!!!!!!
Thank you for the great comment. I really just sketched the leaves, fruit, and bowl….and the rest was mostly filling in with the colors. I thought I never would get through! It was kind of fun though….like coloring with crayolas.
– Kate Eller
This is beautiful work Kate. You have treaded the textures so perfectly and have done the colours so well. Excellent work! a fav. for me.
You have given me such a very lovely comment Orla….thank you so much. You have a very impressive portfolio yourself. I just went there, but must go back to spend some time. You are so versatile and talented.
– Kate Eller

Toronto, Ontario Canada
R-01 is an affordable designer chair that is easy to manufacture with minimal details and materials. It was originally designed as a dining chair for a boutique restaurant in Toronto. The main materials of the chair are brushed steel for the structure and painted plywood for the seating pad. Although the geometry of the design is simple and minimal, the chair meets the ergonomic seating standards and is in fact decently comfortable.
Comparing to many chairs, conventional or modern, R-01 is limited to the least essential materials and elements, and the rest is gone. In other words, there is no extra piece in the design so if even one element of the chair was removed, it would fail as a structure.
There are two careful details integrated in the design, one is the back pad, which is made with a resilient material so that leaning back is comfortable, and the other one is the adjustable footings that allow leveling of the chair in case there is any imperfection on the floor. The seating is paint-finished; therefore it can have any color based on the interior design of the space.
Design: Reza Aliabadi [rzlbd]
Project Team: Reza Aliabadi & Lailee Soleimani
Photography: Lynsie Roberts
Location: Toronto
Design: 2011

Today Monday, 1st of September of 2014, the sun rose in Pitch Landing at 6:50 am and sunset will be at 7:41 pm. The moon rose in the southeast at an angle of 111º at 1:14 pm.
In the high tide and low tide chart, we can see that the first low tide was at 2:15 am and the next low tide at 2:18 pm. The first high tide was at 7:51 am and the next high tide will be at 8:36 pm.
The lunar phase is a Waxing Crescent. Today we have 12 hours and 51 minutes of sun. The solar transit is at 1:15 pm and the length of time the moon will be visible will be 10 hours and 46 minutes.
The tidal coefficient today is 53 (average). At noon the tidal coefficient drops to 49 to end the day with a tidal coefficient of 47. The tide heights today are 0.7 ft, 1.0 ft, 0.3 ft and 1.0 ft. We can compare these levels with the maximum high tide recorded in the tide tables for Pitch Landing which is of 1.3 ft and a minimum height of -1.0 ft.
The solunar fishing calendar in Pitch Landing tells us that today is a good day for fishing, the fish activity forecast is high. Please, read more about solunar tables. The best times of day for fishing are:
| from 6:14 am to 8:14 am, very high activity Major period (moon down). This period of high activity coincides with sunrise; therefore the sun will exercise more influence, resulting in an excellent time for fishing
from 1:14 pm to 2:14 pm, high activity minor period (moonrise)
from 6:37 pm to 8:37 pm, very high activity Major period (moon up). This period of high activity coincides with sunset; therefore the sun will exercise more influence, resulting in an excellent time for fishing
Tide timetable for Pitch Landing. The times are generated in local time in South Carolina and the daylight saving time change is calculated automatically, so you don't need to add or subtract anything. You will also have the lunar phase, sunrise and sunset times, the tidal coefficient and the average fish activity forecast for each day according to the solunar tables:
[ 0 low activity ] , [ average activity ] , [ high activity ] , [ very high activity ]
NOTE: The times reflected in the tide table for Pitch Landing are tide forecasts only valid as references for sport fishing. They shouldn't be used as a guide for navigation. The heights are expressed in feet referenced to Mean Lower Low Water (MLLW).
MLLW is the average of the lower low water height of each tidal day observed over the official time segment over which tide observations are taken and reduced to obtain mean value (Tidal Datum Epoch).

Among the latest twists in the Republican presidential campaign is this: Mitt Romney, long accused by foes of flip-flopping on issues, is now being given a run for his money by another candidate who shares the same liability: Newt Gingrich.
For years, Gingrich supported the idea that citizens could be required by mandate to buy health insurance, like in the health care overhauls initiated by Romney while he was governor of Massachusetts in 2006 and on the national level by President Obama last year. Now, Gingrich opposes such an idea.

#OpenStack #CloudStack #OpenFlow #SDN It's a showdown of model versus control – or is it?
There's a lot of noise about "wars" in the networking world these days. OpenStack versus CloudStack versus OpenFlow-based SDN.
But while there are definitely aspects of "stacks" that share similarities with "flows", they are not the same model and ultimately they aren't even necessarily attempting to solve the same problems.
Understanding the two models and what they're intended to do can go a long way toward resolving any perceived conflicts.
The Stack Model
Stack models, such as CloudStack and OpenStack, are more accurately placed in the category of "cloud management frameworks" because they are designed with provisioning and management of the infrastructure services that comprise a cloud computing (or highly dynamic) environment.
Stacks are aptly named as they attempt to provide management and specifically automation of provisioning for the complete network stack. Both CloudStack and OpenStack, along with Eucalyptus and Amazon and VMware vCloud, provide a framework API that can (ostensibly) be used to provision infrastructure services irrespective of vendor implementation. The vision is (or should be) to enable implementers (whether service provider or enterprise) to be able to switch out architectural elements (routers, switches, hypervisors, load balancers, etc… ) transparently*. That is, moving from Dell to HP to Cisco (or vice-versa) as an environment's switching fabric should not be disruptive. Physical changes should be able to occur without impacting the provisioning and management of the actual services provided by the infrastructure.
And yes, such a strategy should also allow heterogeneity of infrastructure.
In many ways, such "stacks" are the virtualization of the data center, enabling abstraction of the actual implementation from the configuration and automation of the hardware (or software) elements. This, more than anything, is what enables a comparison with flow-based models.
The Flow Model
Flow-based models, in particular OpenFlow-based SDN, also abstracts implementation from configuration by decoupling the control plane from the data plane. This allows any OpenFlow-enabled device (mostly switches today, as SDN and OpenFlow focus on network layers) to be configured and managed via a centralized controller using a common API.
Flows are "installed" or "inserted" into OpenFlow-enabled elements via OpenFlow, an open protocol designed for this purpose, and support real-time updates that enable on-demand optimization or fault isolation of flows through the network. OpenFlow and SDN are focused on managing the flow of traffic through a network.
Flow-based models purport to offer the same benefits as a stack model in terms of heterogeneity and interoperability. Moving from one OpenFlow-enabled switch to another (or mixing and matching) should ostensibly have no impact on the network whatsoever.
What flow-based models offer above and beyond a stack model is extensibility. OpenFlow-based SDN models using a centralized controller also carry with it the premise of being able to programmatically add new services to the network without vendor assistance. "Applications" deployed on an SDN controller platform (for lack of a better term) can extend existing services or add new ones and there is no need to change anything in the network fabric, because ultimately every "application" distills flows into a simple forwarding decision that can then be applied like a pattern to future flows by the switches.
The Differences
This is markedly different from the focus of a stack, which is on provisioning and management, even though both may be occurring in real-time. While it's certainly the case that through the CloudStack API you can create or delete port forwarding rules on a firewall, these actions are pushed (initiated) external to the firewall. It is not the case that the firewall receives a packet and asks the cloud framework for the appropriate action, which is the model in play for a switch in an OpenFlow-based SDN.
Another (relatively unmentioned but important) distinction is who bears responsibility for integration. A stack-based model puts the onus on the stack to integrate (via what are usually called "plug-ins" or "drivers") with the component's existing API (assuming one exists). A flow-based model requires the vendor to take responsibility for enabling OpenFlow support natively. Obviously the ecosystem of available resources to perform integration is a magnitude higher with a stack model than with a flow model. While vendors are involved in development of drivers/plug-ins for stacks now, the impact on the product itself is minimal, if any at all, because the integration occurs external to the component. Enabling native OpenFlow support on components requires a lot more internal resources be directed at such a project.
Do these differences make for an either-or choice?
Actually, they don't. The models are not mutually exclusive and, in fact, might be used in conjunction with one another quite well. A stack based approach to provisioning and management might well be complemented by an OpenFlow SDN in which flows through the network can be updated in real time or, as is often proffered as a possibility, the deployment of new protocols or services within the network.
The War that Isn't
While there certainly may be a war raging amongst the various stack models, it doesn't appear that a war between OpenFlow and *-Stack is something that's real or ever will be The two foci are very different, and realistically the two could easily be deployed in the same network and solve multiple problems. Network resources may be provisioned and initially configured via a stack but updated in real-time or extended by an SDN controller, assuming such network resources were OpenFlow-enabled in the first place.
* That's the vision (and the way it should be) at least. Reality thus far is that the OpenStack API doesn't support most network elements above L3 yet, and CloudStack is tightly coupling API calls to components, rendering this alleged benefit well, not a benefit at all, at least at L4 and above.

Hardware will never be more valuable than on the day it hits your loading dock. Each day new servers are not deployed to production the business is losing money. While Moore's Law is typically cited to explain the exponential density growth of chips, a critical consequence of this is rapid depreciation of servers. The hardware for clustered systems (e.g., Hadoop, OpenStack) tends to be significant capital expenses. In his session at 15th Cloud Expo, Mason Katz, CTO and co-founder of StackIQ, to discuss how infrastructure teams should be aware of the capitalization and depreciation model of these expenses to fully understand when and where automation is critical.

Over the last few years the healthcare ecosystem has revolved around innovations in Electronic Health Record (HER) based systems. This evolution has helped us achieve much desired interoperability. Now the focus is shifting to other equally important aspects – scalability and performance. While applying cloud computing environments to the EHR systems, a special consideration needs to be given to the cloud enablement of Veterans Health Information Systems and Technology Architecture (VistA), i.e., the largest single medical system in the United States.

Most of today's hardware manufacturers are building servers with at least one SATA Port, but not every systems engineer utilizes them. This is considered a loss in the game of maximizing potential storage space in a fixed unit. The SATADOM Series was created by Innodisk as a high-performance, small form factor boot drive with low power consumption to be plugged into the unused SATA port on your server board as an alternative to hard drive or USB boot-up. Built for 1U systems, this powerful device is smaller than a one dollar coin, and frees up otherwise dead space on your motherboard. To meet the requirements of tomorrow's cloud hardware, Innodisk invested internal R&D resources to develop our SATA III series of products. The SATA III SATADOM boasts 500/180MBs R/W Speeds respectively, or double R/W Speed of SATA II products.

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.
