Reminder to park visitors. Fireworks are prohibited at Prince William Forest Park.
Oak Ridge Campground Site A29 closure
Oak Ridge Campground site A29 will be closed until safety concerns have been mitigated. Please do not use that site until it has been reopened.
Warm Wet Spring = More Ticks
Please check yourself and your pets for ticks continually during and after your visit. Ticks are less prevelent if you stay on trail or in mowed areas. Wearing light colored clothing helps you spot them before the attach.
Outside firewood is prohibited in Prince William Forest Park, unless it is certified USDA 'bug free' firewood. Dead and downed wood may be collected from designated areas for use while in the park. Help us protect the forest from invasive species!
Visitor Center Remodel 2014
Over the next several months there will be new changes coming to the Visitor Center. Presently we are remodeling the bookstore area to give it more of a country theme. Next the exibit area will get all new exhibits. Thank you for your patience and support
Prince William Forest Park is a popular dog walking spot for many of our visitors. With its vast array of hiking trails and wide gravel fire roads, the park is a doggie favorite.
All pets entering the park must be on a leash of six feet or less at all times while in Prince William Forest Park. Leashing your pet keeps people, wildlife and your pet safe.
Pets are prohibited in the following areas (except for those aiding persons with disabilities):
Pet owners shall be responsible for removing pet excrement from campsites, picnic areas, parking lots, trails and other public use areas.
Do not leave your pet unattended in a vehicle or campsite. Interior temperatures of vehicles rise within minutes and pets can quickly overheat and die, even with the windows cracked.
Owners are responsible for their pet's behavior and may receive fines if their animal creates problems with wildlife and/or other visitors or is not on a leash.
Please note: Violators of park rules and regulations will be issued a federal citation in accordance with Title 36 of the Code of Federal Regulations. For example: Failing to keep pets on a lead no longer than six feet in length is subject to a maximum fine not to exceed six months in jail or $5,000.

Did You Know?
Because of its abundance and high sulfur content, Pyrite, also known as "Fool's Gold," was once mined in what is now Prince William Forest Park (1889-1920) to be used in products ranging from light bulbs to soap.

Proving the genericity lemma by leftmost reduction is simple
Kuper, J. (1995) Proving the genericity lemma by leftmost reduction is simple. In: Rewriting Techniques and Applications, 5-7 April 1995, Kaiserslautern, Germany.
Restricted to UT campus only: Request a copy
|The Genericity Lemma is one of the most important motivations to take in the untyped lambda calculus the notion of solvability as a formal representation of the informal notion of undefinedness. We generalise solvability towards typed lambda calculi, and we call this generalisation: usability. We then prove the Genericity Lemma for un-usable terms. The technique of the proof is based on leftmost reduction, which strongly simplifies the standard proof.

There isn't a ton of information to bring to you today Who Dat Nation, but let's just be thankful we did not have any injuries to report from OTAs yesterday (see Domenik Hixon of the Chicago Bears & Sean Lee of the Dallas Cowboys). Here's the news items for today:
Ramon Antonio Vargas | The Advocate | Keenan Lewis sees Jairus Byrd as ballhawk
"I'm scared to have him back there," Lewis jokingly said of Byrd at a recent charity softball game. "I'm pretty sure he's going to make (getting seven interceptions) real hard for me."
I'll gladly take a friendly challenge for 'most interceptions' on the Saints roster this season. It's good to see these two mesh, as they should be spending the next several years together in the Saints secondary. If I'm any opposing quarterback facing the Saints this season, I'm sure there will be some second guessing with these two on the field.
Mike Triplett | ESPN | Saints sign Weaver, release Givens
The New Orleans Saints signed offensive tackle Jason Weaver and released receiver Chris Givens. Weaver (6-foot-5, 305 pounds) is a second-year pro who spent time on the Miami Dolphins' practice squad last year and also spent time with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Cincinnati Bengals in the 2013 offseason.
Chris Givens was a promising find out of school, but injuries plagued him. He's actually been on the roster since 2012, but it appears the Saints cut ties with Givens. The move makes sense, as the Saints have a very crowded battle at wide receiver this season. As for Weaver, the hometown player has as good a chance to make an impact on the Saints offensive line depth chart as anyone else.

My background is in syntactic theory and the acquisition of syntax, both morphosyntax and argument structure, in children (first language). I'm also interested in language processing, computational modeling, learnability theory, as well as visual cognition and spatial representation.
My current research is about how children learn "displacing" predicates. These are verbs and adjectives that do not select an external argument (subject) and thus allow another NP to be "displaced" into the subject position. Displacing predicates include raising verbs (e.g. seem or appear), tough adjectives (easy), unaccusative verbs (arrive) and passives. My main question is how children distinguish these predicates from control verbs (want or claim), control adjectives (eager), unergative verbs (laugh) and actives. These are predicates that do select an external argument but occur in superficially similar sentence environments (e.g. John seems/claims to like pizza). The answer I am currently pursuing is that NP animacy provides a crucial cue: encountering a predicate with an inanimate subject should tell learners that the predicate is a displacing predicate.
I have just completed a book about how NP (in)animacy helps children acquire displacing predicates.
In addition, I have on-going collaborative projects with:
- W. Garrett Mitchener (Mathematics, College of Charleston) on developing a computational learning algorithm to model how children acquire the distinction between raising and control verbs, and other pairs of displacing and non-displacing predicates;
- Bruno Estigarribia (Romance Languages, UNC) on experiments with adults and children to discover how sentential factors (e.g. subject animacy) influence individual's inferences about novel raising/control verbs and tough/control adjectives;
- Masako Hirotani (School of Linguistics and Language Studies and Institute of Cognitive Science, Carleton University) on ERP studies of children's grammaticality judgments
- Megan Gotowski (UCLA) on children's acquisition of wh-questions in French and English
In the past my work focused more on the acquisition of morphosyntax and aspect. My dissertation is on the development of the copula (be) in English (available through the IRCS Technical Reports series; tech report #00-05 under 2000 tech reports). A text version of the abstract is available here. (If the link to IRCS does not work, please send me an e-mail.)

Lay summary
Background and study aims
Depression causes misery to many people and is a major health problem in the UK. Although effective treatments are available, many people do not have access to them and we are always looking for treatments that are easier and quicker for patients to receive. New ways of organising treatment have been developed in the United States but we do not know if they are better than usual care in the UK. Therefore, this study will investigate a way of organising the way we deliver treatment for depression. This is called �collaborative care for depression� and it is being compared with the usual care given by General Practitioners (GPs).
Who can participate?
We are asking people from a number of different GP surgeries in three UK areas if they would like to take part. All participants will have a diagnosis of depression.
What does the study involve?
If people agree to take part in the research the first thing we will want to do is to find out about them. We will need to ask about their current and past mental health as well as their life more generally. This meeting will take about 90 minutes. We then arrange to see people in 4, 12 and 36 months� time. These meetings will be a little shorter as they only involve filling out some questionnaires. We expect these meetings to take about 45 minutes. We also need to collect some information from their medical records. The research study will last for five-and-a-half years, but individual participants will only be involved for 36 months.
Every participant will continue to have their treatment managed by their GP, but people from half of the GP surgeries will also receive Collaborative Care, while the other half will receive usual care (exactly the same treatment as if they chose not to take part in the study). The decision about whether a surgery will offer Collaborative Care is made totally by chance, and participants will not know which group their GP surgery is in until they decide to take part in the study. People receiving Collaborative Care are assigned a case manager, who is a health worker specially trained to help people with depression. Case managers help to organise the person�s care and will give them advice on overcoming depression. For example, the case manager may advise about medication or explain some very simple ways that a person can help themselves to start to feel better. Case managers see people face to face initially, at a time and place to suit them, and the meeting will usually take about 40 minutes. After this first meeting, they will telephone the person at regular times to support them in their treatment. These calls take about 15 minutes, and will be booked at times to suit the patient. Usually, the case manager will call once a week for the first month and then once a fortnight for the next 3 months, but how often they call is totally up to the patient. Participants have contact with the case manager for 4 months.
What are the possible benefits and risks of participating?
We hope that both the new treatment and usual care will help participants. The information we get from this study may help us to treat future patients with depression better. We are not aware of any side effects, disadvantages or risks to participants of taking part in this research.
Where is the study run from?
The University of Exeter (UK).
When is the study starting and how long is it expected to run for?
The study starts in September 2008 and is scheduled to complete in February 2014.
Who is funding the study?
The UK Medical Research Council.
Who is the main contact?

Participants - inclusion criteria
We will include patients (both males and females) meeting the diagnostic criteria for depression who are aged 18 years and above and who are not currently receiving treatment for depression from specialist mental health services. We will establish the diagnosis of depression by the use of the Clinical Interview Schedule (CIS-R) undertaken by a research worker. We wish our trial to reflect the real world as closely as possible by including all patients with depression; we will therefore include both patients newly identified as depressed, with or without one or more previous depressive episodes, and those with a current depressive illness which has not responded to primary care management in the previous four months. We will also include patients who are suffering from peri- or post-natal depression, with either co-morbid physical illness or co-morbid non-psychotic functional disorders, such as anxiety. In line with the pragmatic nature of this trial, we will reflect usual GP care and participants will be eligible to participate whether they are in receipt of antidepressant medication or not.
Participants - exclusion criteria
1. Patients whose risk of suicide is sufficiently acute to demand immediate management by a crisis team. Case managers will be trained to recognise and manage less acute risk through applying the procedures taught in the STORM (Skills-based Training On Risk Management) training, we will follow the trial suicide protocol. We will ensure that the patient's GP is involved immediately so they can take appropriate action for patients with suicidal plans.
2. Psychotic patients
3. Patients where the low mood is better explained by a simple bereavement reaction
4. Patients whose primary presenting problem is alcohol or drug abuse

Target number of participants
550 (Amended on 18/04/2012: Recruitment completed, in follow up and analysis stage)
Intervention group:
UK-specific collaborative care protocol developed from our Trial Platform delivered via scheduled telephone and face-to-face contacts by a supervised case manager over four months and including:
1. A multi-professional approach to patient care
2. A structured patient management plan including medication support and/or cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) based behavioural activation
3. Scheduled patient follow-ups
4. Enhanced inter-professional communication
The control group will receive usual care from their GP.
Intervention is for 4 months, follow-ups are at the end of intervention (4 months from recruitment) and 12 months from recruitment.
Primary outcome measure(s)
Self-report severity of depression at 4 and 12 months follow-up, assessed using the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ9). The PHQ9 is a self-report measure and therefore less subject to observer bias. It is sensitive to change with good psychometric properties and we have recently validated its sensitivity and specificity for a UK population.
Secondary outcome measure(s)
The following outcome measures except CSQ-8 will be taken at baseline, 4 and 12 months follow-up:
1. Diagnosis of depression assessed by Clinical Interview Schedule (CIS-R), a computerised interview, and the Beck Depression Inventory II (BDI-II)
2. Health related quality of life, assessed by the SF-36 Health Survey
3. Health care utilisation, measured using case records and a patient service utilisation questionnaire
4. Health state utilities, assessed by EuroQoL
5. Satisfaction with care, measured by the Client Satisfaction Questionnaire (CSQ-8) at 4 months
6. Economic analysis. The incremental cost per Quality-Adjusted Life Years (QALY) of the intervention compared to the control will be calculated from NHS and Personal Social Services (PSS) perspectives.
Process data will be collected within the trial. The extensive quantitative and qualitative work in our pilot trial has indicated that the planned intervention is effective and acceptable, and our process evaluation in the main trial will focus on:
1. The process of implementation of the intervention, and
2. Mechanisms of change and differential response in patient subgroups
Investigation of the process of implementation will involve qualitative interviews with patients, GPs, case managers and specialist professionals, augmented with routinely collected data on from case records and session audio-tapes. Key stakeholders including GPs, patients, case managers and supervisors will be purposively sampled to represent a range and diversity of views and experiences. We will conduct between 30 - 40 interviews with these stakeholders until theoretical saturation has been achieved. All interviews will be audio-taped and transcribed verbatim. The analysis will examine the implementation of collaborative care, with a focus on differences between sites and different case managers. Investigation of mechanisms of change and differential response in patient subgroups will include quantitative measurement of key patient baseline characteristics (e.g. severity, duration of depression, patient preferences, attitudes towards treatment), treatment process measures (e.g. therapeutic alliance), contextual practice variables (e.g. Quality and Outcome Framework compliance rates, anti-depressant prescription rates; availability of counselling and other mental health services) and will follow conventional procedures for analysis.

The list of recruits visiting LSU this week looks like a relative who's who of the top recruits in the nation with five, five-star prospects highlighted by newly minted top overall recruit in the 247Sports composite rankings, Leonard Fournette, two four-star recruits and one three-star.
Fournette is the marquee name and has been a heavy lean to LSU essentially since his first carry at St. Augustine in New Orleans a few years ago. All signs continue to point to the best running back recruit since Adrian Peterson to commit to LSU.

Catalonia Bike Tour Day 3 - Girona to Sant Feliu
Today we cycled from Girona to Sant Feliu de Guíxols, a city that is located on the Mediterranean coast. It was difficult to leave Girona this morning as we thoroughly enjoyed our accommodation, food and city atmosphere last night. We rode along the canal through the city and continued on the El Carrilet cycle path. We passed farms of pears, quinoa and corn; forests of maple, pine ...

We caught the train to barcelona this morning. It took just over an hour. It was quite a nice trip, all along the water. We saw so many nudist swimmers and sunbathers of both sexes. They are not afraid to flaunt their bodies.
We had a walk around Barcelona, down la rambla which is a pedestrian strip with souvenir shops, flower shops and street performers. It was quite an enjoyable walk. It was so hot though, very humid. We also went and had ...
A quick stop on the way to Barcelona was Girona, a recommendation in the guide books for its medieval centre. We left the van parked in the baking sun while we took our customary walk in the hottest part of the day to look around, and it was certainly worth a stop. The centre is a collection of alleys, bridges, shops, cafés and churches - enough to entertain us for an hour or 2. The kids found a great sweet shop, and we managed to pick up the customary stickers for the van as ...
Easy day
- Quick post start with a run, wind went south didn't fancy an upwind slog so pulled into.

Bittersweet Dismantling of Jet Star Coaster
How could something meant to bring great memories have become the visual symbol of a storm that brought so many painful memories?
How could something meant to bring great memories have become the visual symbol of a storm that brought so many painful memories?
Prince Harry will be in New Jersey on Tuesday. He wants to see the part of the Jersey Shore that Superstorm Sandy hit the hardest. He'll be accompanied by Governor Christie when he tours "ground zero" of the storm, Mantoloking. He'll also be stopping by Seaside Heights to see the progress of Restore The Shore. We figured since Harry will be at the Shore, he might as well get the full experience. That's why we asked you on Facebook to name a landmark or hot spot in Monmouth & Ocean counties that is a must for the Prince to see.
England's Prince Harry will visit the Shore next week before heading to a news conference nearby.
May is here, but every time I start getting excited about summer at the Shore, I get that bad feeling in my stomach thinking about all the people still suffering due to Sandy.
It has never been more important than it is this summer for Jersey Shore businesses to have a big summer.
Six months ago, Sandy slammed into the Jersey Shore, and and changed almost everything. If you're anywhere at the Jersey Shore, it's not a far ride to see devastation that looks like it happened just yesterday.
We wake up this morning to hear that a fertilizer plant in Texas exploded and leveled the surrounding area, and there are reports of hundreds of injuries and several deaths, It is too early to know all the details , but it's yet another story of catastrophe.
With so many people in our area still in need of help in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy, Door 21 Foundation is holding a 5K Fun Run for Hurricane Sandy relief Sunday April 28th at High School North in Toms River.
We all know that sinking feeling we get when we hear first hear about a tragedy, and it seems to be happening way too often. The first videos of the attacks in Boston brought back some horrendous feelings.
More than five months after Hurricane Sandy belted the Garden State, some of the hardest hit residents are still struggling with symptoms including depression, anxiety and post-traumatic stress disorder.
Carly Roncin knew she had to find a way to help people after the devastation of Sandy. She came up with a great idea called 'A Princess' Wardrobe' and she began collecting prom and sweet sixteen dresses and accessories to give to those in need.
I was sitting in Jenkinson's Pavilion yesterday as I was doing the show live from there, and as the day went on it seemed the weather got worse.

Vizag: In a tragic incident in Andhra Pradesh, six students of the Gandhi Institute of Technology and Management (GITAM) University have drowned in Vizag. The mishap occurred when a group of first year students had gone to the famous Rishikonda Beach on Wednesday evening.
Though the locals had managed to rescue one young male student from being swept away by strong ocean currents, they failed to save the others. As many as three bodies have been recovered so far while the search in for three others.
According to the police, a group of seven students from the first year of engineering course had gone into water AP Tourism Resorts where they got caught in the high tide.
Despite search operation led by the Navy and Coast Guard helicopters, all the victims could not be found till now. On Wednesday evening, while the search by boats was on, helicopters suspended the search after the dark.

No matter what you think of Chandler Whitmer's play you've got to appreciate his willingness and desire to compete. Most competitors would.
What's goin on?
I last saw Chandler Whitmer minutes before new UConn Coach Bob Diaco was set to be introduced and in looking at him and talking with him too it didn't seem like the young man, a redshirt junior transfer from Butler (Kan.) CC was coming back. He ended the season third on the depth chart after losing his job to true freshman Tim Boyle after four games but it was redshirt freshman Casey Cochran who lit the place up in the final three games of the season, all wins, something Whitmer had not done for the Huskies to this season.
Whitmer graduated in December. The Huskies still have Kivon Taylor who will be a redshirt freshman and Logan Marchi is coming in true this season. Whitmer saw it all and he truly was see-sawing between returning.
The one thing that has been a constant with Whitmer is his competitive spirt. And I know he wants to win but there's a serous fire that burns within Whitmer and apparenly Diaco appealed to it because Whitmer told me – after speaking with the new UConn coach again recently – without hesitation and with a lot of excitement Saturday that he's coming back to Storrs.
"I'm coming back," Whitmer said by phone. "Coach Diaco wants me to come back. I'm coming back to compete. And you know, if I start I start. If I don't, I don't but I want to help this team and I want to help the position. If I'm not the starter I will accept my role and do whatever it takes to help UConn win. We haven't been to a bowl game. It's been too long."
If nothing else you know there will be three guys with playing experience fighting for the No.1 job this season. It should be a good battle and certainly one of the highlights of spring practice.
For now congratulations to Whitmer on his big-time decision to fight and be a team player if he doesn't win it.

The two tracks in the South and Southeast Asian Studies major are flexible, interdisciplinary programs offering opportunities for both wide, comparative study of South and Southeast Asian cultures and greater concentration on a particular area of interest and geographical focus.
With the guidance of the faculty and staff advisers, students might choose to pursue, for example, intense study of a language and its literature or broader inquiries into such subjects as the religions of traditional and modern South and Southeast Asia. Students may include in their major programs suitable courses from other departments.
1. South and Southeast Asian Civilizations
Students pursuing this track must complete one lower-division sequence on either the civilization and culture of South Asia (SA 1A, 1B) or the civilization of Southeast Asia (SEA 10A, 10B). While a two-course sequence is required it is possible to create a mixed South/Southeast Asia combination. Please see the Undergraduate Faculty Advisor to discuss this possibility.
Students must also complete a minimum of 9 additional courses concerning South or Southeast Asia, at least 8 of which must be upper-division and at least 4 of these upper division courses must be taken in the Department.
In consultation with the adviser, students will choose an area of interest (religion or art history or literature, for example). At least 2 courses of the 9 described above should cover this area of interest. At least 3 courses in the area of interest are recommended.
2. South and Southeast Asian Languages and Literatures
Students choosing this track must complete one lower-division sequence on the civilization and culture of South Asia (SA 1A, 1B) or the civilization of Southeast Asia (SEA 10A, 10B) and four semesters of language work (in one of the following languages: Hindi, Urdu, Bengali, Indonesian, Khmer, Punjabi, Sanskrit, Tagalog, Tamil, Thai, and Vietnamese).
Students may establish first-year language proficiency through examinations administered by the Department (although passing an examination will not carry credit).
Students must also complete a minimum of 4 upper-division courses concerning South or Southeast Asia, at least half of which must be taken in the Department.
Students who are considering graduate level study of South or Southeast Asia are strongly advised to choose the Language and Literatures emphasis. This would provide the minimum level language preparation required for most graduate programs.
For both tracks:
The major consists of 42-44 units (normally between 10 and 12 courses).
An adviser must approve all courses taken outside the department that students intend to use for credit (including courses taken in study abroad programs). Among their upper-division courses, students are strongly urged to include one seminar (SSEAS 190 or an equivalent) that requires significant research and writing on South or Southeast Asia.
The minimum requirements, set by the College of Letters and Science, for the completion of a minor program are five upper-division courses, of which a minimum of three must be completed at UCB. All courses in the minor program must be completed on a letter-graded basis. An overall grade-point average of 2.0 is required in courses used for the minor program.
To be eligible for admission to the honors program, a student must attain a 3.5 grade point average or higher in courses completed in the major, and a 3.3 grade-point average in all courses completed in the University. An honors thesis is required, as is registration in SSEAS H195. Students who wish to participate must choose a thesis topic in consultation with their major adviser and apply for admission to the program through the departmental office no later than the first week of spring semester of the senior year.

Reginald Wells, a seventh-grader at Willie Ray Smith Middle School, says he was chatting in the hallway with an assistant teacher from math class. Wells cracked a joke about the teacher's favorite football team and what happened next is still hard for the student to believe.
"All of a sudden he just hit me, in my shoulder," Wells said in an interview with 12News. "… and I looked at him like, 'What the heck?'"
The 12-year-old explained that he pushed the teacher's shoulder and then the teacher blindsided him with a punch to the face that knocked him out.

Cloud storage benefits are shaping up, but problems remain
Maybe you don't need anyone to tell you this, but now might be a good time to start thinking of other places — in the cloud, for example — to store all that electronic data your agency is creating every day.
If Federal Chief Information Officer Vivek Kundra has his way, government agencies won't be able to keep socking away new data in computer servers and storage devices in their own jealously guarded data centers. The costs of operating those facilities are just too high.
The number of government data centers almost tripled in the past decade, from 432 to 1,100. A big driver in this proliferation is data growth. For example, the Defense Information Systems Agency said the amount of data it manages has grown more than 1,400 percent during the past eight years.
Meanwhile, if changes aren't made, energy consumption by federal servers and data centers will be more than 12 billion kilowatt-hours by 2011, double the amount used in 2006. To make matters worse, the government doesn't use its data centers anywhere near their maximum capacity.
In this report:
Cloud storage: Interest, but little action now
So, enough is enough, Kundra said. In a memo to federal CIOs Feb. 26, he ordered a governmentwide consolidation of data centers. Agencies have until Aug. 30 to finalize their specific consolidation plans, which will be included in their fiscal 2012 budgets.
One of the initiative's goals — to shift IT investments to more efficient computing platforms and technologies — seems a direct prod by Kundra for agencies to at least start investigating moving some IT operations to the cloud.
So what about data storage? In the cloud model, agencies would send their data across the Internet or a private network to a storage service provider that owns and operates the storage equipment and charges a monthly fee based on how much data is involved. Because agencies would only pay for what they use, that would get them out of the expensive game of buying enough excess storage capacity for their own data centers to always stay ahead of their data growth curve.
There are few examples of organizations moving large amounts of storage to the cloud. But those that have report good results, and Kundra said agencies should be on the lookout for best practices from the public and private sectors.
For example, General Electric started looking for alternatives after its disk-to-disk-to-tape on-site backup system reached a cost of 50 cents per gigabyte per month. The company is using a new cloud-based backup and archiving service from Nirvanix that reportedly costs 32 cents per gigabyte per month.
However, it's still early in the game for wholesale moves. The number of cloud storage providers is small but growing.
Nevertheless, for data storage, the cloud seems to make sense. But before you make that leap, there are a few things you need to be aware of that will influence what kind of data and how much of your data you can offload to a service provider.
Issue No. 1: Security
This is by far agencies' No. 1 worry about the cloud — and for good reason. To deliver services as cost efficiently as possible, cloud providers will typically store different customers' data on shared systems, thereby increasing the use rate of those resources. That cohabitation might be beyond the comfort level of many government IT managers.
Most cloud storage vendors provide security for data in transit on a network from a customer to the cloud. However, cloud customers often take an additional step to protect their data.
"Our largest customers tend to secure their data before we ever see it, relying on proven encryption and key management tools," said Stephen Foskett, director of consulting at Nirvanix.
Meanwhile, there might be an upside to cloud storage security concerns, said Peter Mell, a senior computer specialist at the National Institute of Standards and Technology's Computer Security Division and lead author on NIST's upcoming cloud guidance publication.
"The idea there is that if agencies have public facing data [on their systems] and they move them off to the cloud, what's left is the sensitive data they'll then have more control over," he said. "The public won't go to the agency network so much, so the agency can put more focus on those sensitive areas."
If the data originates inside the cloud because it was created using a cloud-based application, such as a collaboration or e-mail program, that's a better scenario because there's an implicit understanding of the conditions under which the data will reside in the cloud, said Joe Brown, president of Accelera Solutions, an IT solutions provider that specializes in virtualization.
Short of that scenario, Brown advises caution.
"Right now, if the data is sensitive and originates inside the [agency] firewall, moving [it] to the cloud is off limits," he said.
Issue No. 2: Performance
Putting data in the cloud is not a good option if you can't get it back in a way that meets your needs. So it is critical to know the bandwidth and access methods that will be available between an agency and storage provider.
Besides determining how fast average performance will be, you need to know how the cloud will handle data transfers at peak loads.
All that will determine what type of data you send to the cloud. For now, many customers find that the cloud operates at least a little slower than agencies' own internal networks, said Brooke Guthrie, manager of product and business management for CDW Government's hosting and managed services.
For archival data that users don't need to access often, such as medical images, performance won't likely be a limiting factor.
"But nobody is putting primary storage into the cloud right now," Guthrie said. "The performance is not really there for day-to-day, transactional data."
Performance degradation would be minimized if the applications could also be located in the cloud along with the data they use. But not all applications are suited for the cloud, particularly mission-critical ones that agencies naturally prefer to keep close at hand on servers in their own data centers.
Issue No. 3: Records management
Government agencies must follow rules for storing and manipulating digital records, requirements that cloud vendors are just beginning to address.
For example, agencies that want to put data into the cloud need to consider whether a cloud provider can maintain an electronic record's functionality and integrity throughout its life cycle, the National Archives and Records Administration said in a recent memo.
Agencies also must make sure they can transfer archival records to NARA or delete records according to NARA-approved retention schedules.
Some cloud architectures lack the formal technical standards that govern how data is stored and manipulated, which "threatens the long-term trustworthiness and sustainability of the data," NARA said.
Agencies are responsible for making sure that the contracts of the cloud vendors they use satisfy NARA's requirements for specific records management language.
As the cloud services market evolves, those types of features will likely be standard features in vendor offerings. There's a lot of research and development going on regarding archiving data, said Ted Newman, chief technology officer of EMC Infrastructure Consulting, adding that agencies should be aware of the risks they will take if they make the move now.
"There will be a little bit more of a lock-in [to a specific cloud architecture] given the way that things are being done by vendors now," he said.
Issue No. 4: Interoperability
One of the big advantages of the cloud for agencies will come in being able to use various providers for different services, on demand. That means the data agencies store in one vendor's cloud infrastructure must be able to work in another's.
"It speaks to the need for portability and interoperability," said David McClure, associate administrator of the General Services Administration's Office of Citizen Services and Communications. "If you use the cloud, you need to know you can pull the data back."
In the next few months, GSA is expected to announce a request for quotations for services such as cloud storage from providers that agencies can acquire through an online storefront set up by GSA.
That interoperability might not be a problem for things such as an Oracle database, for example, because it has widely understood structures that vendors will likely implement the same way. However, can the same be said for a more customized platform?
"That's when you get into the more proprietary side of things," said Doug Chabot, vice president and principal solutions architect at QinetiQ North America's Mission Solutions Group.
It means an agency must sit down and understand how data transfers will happen with the cloud providers they use because that speaks directly to the issue of data integrity, said Venkatapathi Puvvada, vice president and managing partner of Unisys' Federal Horizontal Services.
"The industry still has not figured out what the standards are for that yet," he said.
That is not an insurmountable challenge, Chabot said. An agency could use special software links that bridge different system interfaces.
If it sounds like using cloud storage will be a lot of work for agencies, that's because it will be, at least for now. However, many smart companies are figuring out how they can, as specialists, deliver storage capacity for less money than it costs an IT generalist, such as a government agency, to provide the same.
By all accounts, vendors are succeeding on the cost front. As they resolve those other concerns, the road to cloud storage and its benefits will become more clear.

Fort Larned's Classic stunner tops upset-filled weekend in Breeders' Cup

Updated: December 5, 2012 6:51AM
ARCADIA, Calif. — Bob Baffert got beat again in the $5 million Breeders' Cup Classic. Bill Mott settled for half of a repeat sweep in the weekend's two biggest races.
The Hall of Fame trainers could only wince as 9-1 long shot Fort Larned won North America's richest race on Saturday night, capping a weekend of upsets in the world championships at Santa Anita.
Fort Larned ran the race of his life, leading all the way to win by a half-length over Mucho Macho Man.
The highly anticipated Classic was strictly a two-horse race to the finish. Game On Dude, the 7-5 favorite, ran what Baffert said was "probably the worst race of his life" in finishing seventh.
Mott's trio of Flat Out (third), Ron the Greek (fourth) and To Honor and Serve (10th) came up short.
Mott, unlike Baffert, didn't leave empty-handed. Royal Delta successfully defended her title in the $2 million Ladies' Classic on Friday, as one of only four favorites to win in 15 races over two days.
The spotlight belonged to an unheralded horse named for an old post in Kansas that protected the Santa Fe Trail, a jockey who rides in racing's minor leagues, and a low-profile trainer.
"The prestige of winning this race in front of the world is unbelievable," jockey Brian Hernandez Jr. said.
He celebrated his 27th birthday with the biggest victory of his career. Trainer Ian Wilkes could say the same.
"Fort Larned just gave us the greatest birthday present ever," said Hernandez, who was the leading rider this year at Ellis Park and Kentucky Downs.
Fort Larned ran 1¼ miles in 2:00.11 in the showcase race of the two-day world championships. The 4-year-old colt paid $20.80 to win. Wilkes had never won such a big race.
Other Day 2 winners before a crowd of 55,123 included Little Mike (Turf), Shanghai Bobby (Juvenile), Wise Dan (Mile), Trinniberg (Sprint), George Vancouver (Juvenile Turf), Mizdirection (Turf Sprint), Groupie Doll (Filly & Mare Sprint) and Tapizar (Dirt Mile).
Rosie Napravnik joined Julie Krone as the only female jockeys to win a BC race when she guided Shanghai Bobby to victory.
"As long as you've got the horse underneath you, you can get the job done," said Napravnik, who started her career riding under her initials A.R. so no one would realize she was a woman. AP
