Cambridge IT managers talk virtualisation, cloud
Summary: At the College IT Conference, the IT managers of the ancient Cambridge and Oxford colleges met to discuss common problems and opportunities
3 of 6Image
Ashley Meggitt, at IT manager at Jesus College, Cambridge, was one of the College IT Conference's main organisers. He called for colleges — whose IT departments are distinct from those that run the universities' faculties — to "take more of a business approach" to the way they run their services.
"We tend to have ancient processes — a college may use a computer to carry on those old processes, but we need more efficiencies," Meggitt said. "A student arrives in the flesh, and we feed them and give them their degrees. We need to make sure the virtual student flows through our systems, as it were. That is what they expect. Students coming in now are used to using technology, and their expectations of what we can deliver are high. We need to work out how to do this for them and at the same time keep control of the data."
Jesus College has been using virtualisation technology for a year and a half now. "It's doing a lot for us," Meggitt said. "It's server, not desktop, virtualisation, but that's clearly on the horizon. We use the latest enterprise version of VMware, but many colleges would go for the open-source alternative — Xen was developed in Cambridge, obviously. We're slightly unusual, as we take more of a business approach — we need to consider the management benefits and develop a decent disaster-recovery procedure. We went with VMware because it was out before Xen, and Xen couldn't do live migration at the time."
Asked whether Jesus College had gone with VMware because of Xen's open-source nature, Meggitt said that was not a motivating factor, but it may have been so for other colleges.
According to Meggitt, students are becoming used to seeing cloud-type services in the consumer world and in their parents' businesses, and they now want such services at university. He said, however, that he is concerned both about the security implications of cloud computing and the possible issues with machine-to-machine interfaces.
"This is college information to a certain extent," Meggitt said. "I'm concerned that we'd lose security. Our big thing is integration. If we have online storage and applications, where does that data go, where is it stored and can I move it around fast enough? Probably not."
"I am concerned as to whether it feels like our information to get hold of, machine-to-machine," Meggitt said. "I'm talking database integration here — it needs to happen behind the scenes. As a user, I use Google Apps. But, as an institution, we need to have interfaces to get data — we need it to be as flexible as possible."
Mirza Baig is a computer officer at Wolfson College, Cambridge, which adopted virtualisation technology just three months ago.
"We'd been looking into it for the past year," Baig told ZDNet UK. "It's server virtualisation, using Xen. We have about 15 servers, and the server room is quite small, and we have no space. It's an initial investment but cheaper in the long term. The main advantage is resilience — energy costs are not our main concern, but there is an advantage there. We have the air conditioning at maximum capacity in our server room."
Baig said that, while virtualisation is "quite a new technology", he and his colleagues had found it simple to implement. "Training was an issue at the start but, once you know what you're doing, it's OK."
Xen was developed at Cambridge, and Baig praised the virtualisation technology as "a robust product and much cheaper than VMware". He did, however, complain that Xen's pricing structure was not very clear, saying that "the Xen guys [now within Xen's new owner, Citrix] need to invest more in marketing".
He also pointed to "poor" documentation for virtualisation products as a whole. "There is no big knowledge base on the internet you can trust," Baig said. "We need a website comprehensively dedicated to virtualisation."
Chris Bamber is the IT systems manager at Somerville College, Oxford. He told ZDNet UK that his college was slowly looking at adopting virtualisation technology.
"[Virtualisation] is a solution for problems we have — space is our problem," Bamber said. "We'll look at power and cooling to see what benefits can be gained. There was an 85 percent hike in electricity prices over the last year. Anything we can bring in to give us out-of-hours resilience is a good thing."
Bamber was less concerned with the buzz surrounding cloud computing. "There's been a mention, but I don't think anyone is that concerned," he said. "It's more of a departmental focus — we deal with accommodation. It will come down to resilience, power and maybe disaster recovery. Insurance companies are also snapping at the heels of the colleges to look for their business approach."
Rival colleges are starting to look at using each other for systems backup purposes, according to Bamber. "That would mean halving the cost but keeping resilience," he said. "Working together is always interesting."
The biggest problem facing college IT administrators is security, Bamber said. "We spend most of our time firefighting with students. Our biggest threat is internal users. We have more than 300 students, 24/7, for 24 weeks a year."
Bamber said that, while the new generation of students are "computer natives", they can be very lax in terms of security. "We put in secure procedures, but next time new viruses come out, they'll be on the network before you know it," he said. "You can be proactive as you can but, if the colleges are not willing to pay for 24/7 staff, that's what happens."

text: On December 12th 1977 during the first EVA of Apollo 17, Eugene Cernan photographed Harrison Schmitt with the American flag and the Earth (400,000km away) in the background. The chest-mounted RCU and the camera bracket are clearly visible. Cernan is visible in the reflection in Schmitt's helmet visor in the awkward position he assumed to obtain this image. As an American myself, I do get a sense of pride from this image but at the same time can't help but think about how silly the flag seems so far away. You can barely make out the continents from this vantage point let alone individual nations. Missions like Apollo 17 transcended borders and spoke to the world as a whole. As Carl Sagan put it, "Our posturings, our imagined self-importance, the delusion that we have some privileged position in the Universe, are challenged by this point of pale light."

Some local parents are concerned about school lunch cutoffs. A letter sent out says children may not receive a lunch if their account dips below zero.
At Cleaveland Elementary School, the note went home with students last week. It says your child will not get a lunch at all if your account falls below zero for longer than three days. The school district says it has to draw the line somewhere.
"At first, I was a little bit angry because when you send your kids to school every day, you assume that they're going to get fed lunch," said Amber Foshag-Sawyer, a parent of a Cleaveland student.
Now that the end of the school year is near, the schools are clamping down on delinquent accounts. The policy, they say, has not changed.
"We all know as parents that there are days that are so hectic that you just don't remember," explained USD 259 Nutrition Director Vicki Hoffman. "On the way out the door the child says, 'Oh, mom, remember I'm supposed to have meal payments.' And so the online meal payment system and the phone payment system can be used."
Even so, the note specifically says your child won't get anything and that's something that some parents have taken exception to.
"When a kid goes to school hungry, they're not going to learn very well, so the thought that there would be a chance that any of the kids would not get a lunch that day, it's disappointing," Foshag Sawyer said.
The district makes the policy known to evey parent at the beginning of every school year. The notes are simply a reminder to tidy things up before summer break.
"If we allow charges to go on and on, it's difficult for parents to pay back a large negative sum," Hoffman said. "And so all the way around, we've found that it works best if we keep that charge policy lower."
Some schools do have their own contingency food that they will give to children who may be behind in fees, but the district stands by its policy that they won't get a hot lunch if the account is more than three days behind.

As Opening Day inches closer, the Giants' roster is slowly starting to shape up for the season. This week, the team revealed a glimpse of the 2013 rotation, swapped prospects with the American League, and delivered a 1-1-3 record during their first week of Cactus League competition.
- Triple-A third baseman Conor Gillaspie was traded to the White Sox for single-A RHP Jeff Soptic. As Gillaspie was out of options, Andrew Baggarly points out that he would've been DFA'd and placed on waivers had the Giants not struck a deal with Chicago. Hank Schulman's take: "The primary reason for Gillaspie trade was opening a spot on #sfgiants 40-man, but it's not for [Brian] Wilson, or any one guy. Just flexibility."
- As for those left on the 40-man roster, Bruce Bochy might already have a few ideas about his 25-man squad. Last Friday, Hank Schulman reported the skipper's likely regular season rotation: Matt Cain, Madison Bumgarner, Tim Lincecum, Barry Zito, and Ryan Vogelsong. With Cain starting against Clayton Kershaw in L.A. come Opening Day, this would give Zito a chance to open the season at AT&T Park.
- From Andrew Baggarly: "Looks like Pablo Sandoval has added a step or two to his pre-batting ritual this year." More helmet taps? Blowing a bubble or two? Three swings to pay homage to his trifecta of World Series home runs?
- Bruce Bochy and Brian Sabean could receive generous extensions from Larry Baer in the near future. According to Schulman, talks have been slow after the pair's 2014 options were both exercised over the offseason. Two things we know for sure. First, the two will garner more than a single year. Second, per Hank's story: "Sabean and Bochy are believed to be among the five highest-paid GMs and managers in baseball, respectively."
- Anxious for the next televised Giants game? If you missed MLB Network's airing on Wednesday, you can find upcoming showings on the official radio/TV broadcast schedule here.

Police Suspect Dark Horse Comics in Recent Jewel Heist
- Written by Jude Terror on Monday, February 03 2014 and posted in News with Benefits
Source: Press Release
Police put out a bulletin this weekend alerting all officers to be on the lookout for Dark Horse Comics, a comic book publisher which is suspected of stealing five priceless gems from a vault belonging to Diamond Comics Distributors. According to the police report, the gems represent a record number for Dark Horse, which has allegedly been involved in petty gem theft in the past. It is believed that Dark Horse stole the gems during Diamond's 2013 Annual Gem Awards, a celebration of companies that make Diamond money. Investigators began to suspect the equine-themed company when they sent a press release to comics media on Friday bragging about the heist.
"The comics retail community has been the backbone of Dark Horse since day one," said Dark Horse's president and founder Mike Richardson in the press release. Oddly, Richardson seemed to be completely ignoring the accusations at hand. "It is truly an honor to have so many of our titles recognized by our retail partners, as this is perhaps one of the best ways to measure our success as a publisher. We thank all of the comics retailers who supported us in 2013 and hope to do even better in 2014."
While Richardson may be playing coy, police announced that they will not stop their pursuit until Dark Horse has been brought to justice. Here's a press release explaining the matter in greater detail:
MILWAUKIE, OR, JANUARY 31—Last week, Diamond Comic Distributors announced the 2013 Gem Awards, boasting a record number of accolades for Dark Horse!
While DC Entertainment topped the list with six awards, Dark Horse dominated among the independent publishers, with Dark Horse Presents winning Anthology of the Year for the second year in a row!
This year's Dark Horse wins are as follows:
- Licensed Comic Book of the Year: The Star Wars #1 (SEP138217)
- Anthology of the Year: Dark Horse Presents #26 (MAY130015)
- Trade Book of the Year: The Legend of Zelda: Hyrule Historia (SEP120055)
- Original GN of the Year: Hellboy: The Midnight Circus (JUN130031)
- Manga TP of the Year: Lone Wolf & Cub Omnibus Vol. 1 (JAN130124)
"The comics retail community has been the backbone of Dark Horse since day one," said Dark Horse's president and founder, Mike Richardson. "It is truly an honor to have so many of our titles recognized by our retail partners, as this is perhaps one of the best ways to measure our success as a publisher. We thank all of the comics retailers who supported us in 2013 and hope to do even better in 2014."
"We established the Gem Awards to give comic retailers an opportunity to recognize the vendors, titles, and products that have been instrumental in helping their businesses grow over the past year," said Diamond's president and CEO, Steve Geppi, in the Gem Awards announcement. "Our vendors work diligently to support retailers and the entire industry with top-quality titles and products, and we thank all of the retailers who took time from their busy schedules to vote and acknowledge those efforts."
Dark Horse congratulates the editors, creators, and licensors who worked on each of the above titles, and thanks our retail partners for making 2013 one of our most successful years ever!

State tax incentives were approved Thursday to help Cabela's build a distribution center in Tooele County and Varian Medical Systems to expand its X-ray technology manufacturing center in Salt Lake City.
The Governor's Office of Economic Development board extended the financial assistance in hopes of aiding the creation of 1,250 jobs that will provide more than $430 million in new wages in the next 15 years.
In addition, the two projects are expected to generate $38.4 million in new state taxes over that span.
Cabela's, whose Lehi store is one of 50 the company operates across North America, has decided to build a "highly sophisticated" distribution center in Tooele to process freight and deliver products to consumers, company spokesman Wes Remmer said in a news release.
About 250 jobs will be created to run the center. To qualify for a post-performance tax credit worth almost $700,000 over the next 10 years, 85 of the new positions must pay at least 100 percent of Tooele County's average annual wage, including benefits.
"We are happy to see such a major player in the outdoor industry continue to grow its presence in Utah," Gov. Gary Herbert said in the release. "The creation of Cabela's Utah distribution center will strengthen our valued outdoor industry and create family-sustaining jobs in rural areas."
Randy Sant, who works on economic-development issues for Tooele County, said Cabela's has not decided where to build the facility and is still looking at several locations.
He expects a site to be picked soon enough for the plant to meet a projected opening date in late 2015. In the meantime, Sant said, Cabela's will work out of space it has leased.
The Varian deal is larger, looking to foster the addition of 1,000 jobs over the next 15 years. These jobs are supposed to pay 125 percent of Salt Lake County's average annual wage, said GOED spokesman Michael Sullivan, and amount to $400 million over the life of the agreement.
GOED's board approved a tax credit of $7.1 million over the 15-year period, about 20 percent of the $35 million in new tax revenues Varian is projected to generate over that span.
The company expects to spend about $40 million to add 120,000 square feet of manufacturing space to its existing operation, which covers 341,000 square feet.
The addition will include research laboratories, cleanrooms, administrative offices and space to make flat panel image detectors, lines of X-ray tubs and new business the company hopes to pursue, CEO Dow Wilson said in the release.
Noting that Varian has operated in Utah since the 1940s, he said "70 percent of the orders for our X-ray products come from customers outside the U.S., making us one of the Utah's largest exporters."
Wilson added that Utah is "an excellent place to operate our business. Here we're able to find the engineering and technical talent we need to fulfill our mission of making world-class medical products that are used to save lives around the world."
In both cases, Sullivan said, the companies will receive a portion of their tax credit each year they meet performance criteria specified in the agreements.

I recently did a run-down of the city's cheapest accommodation, but even if you're on a shoestring budget there's no need to stay in your hostel killing time on the guest computers and sipping the complimentary coffee. Beyond the price of … read the full post
Singapore Botanic GardensFirst published: 12 Sep 2011
Singapore is constantly changing. Massive new attractions like Marina Bay Sands and Universal Studios open every year and, due to land reclamation work, the island is actually getting bigger. It's unlikely that Singapore's founders would recognise what their tropical trading post has developed into, except maybe if you took them to the Botanic Gardens. The … read the full post
Singapore's best vegetarian restaurants: International eatsFirst published: 07 Sep 2011
In a previous post I covered where to get the best vegetarian Indian, Chinese and Peranakan cuisine. In this post I'll tackle Singapore's other vegetarian culinary offerings. Japanese food is practically defined by its use of fresh fish and at Zen Vegetarian Restaurant sashimi is still on the menu – it's just made from gelatin … read the full post
Singapore's best vegetarian restaurants: local eatsFirst published: 02 Sep 2011
In many Southeast Asian countries being a vegetarian limits you to a boring diet of fried rice with veggies. This couldn't be further from the case in Singapore. As many Hindus are vegetarians, the easiest place to go for a meatless meal is Little India. Modest restaurants along Serangoon Road, particularly around the temples, have … read the full post

Singapore's cheapest hostelsFirst published: 25 Aug 2011
How do you choose a hostel in Singapore? Do you research which one has the friendliest atmosphere or is closest to the MRT, or do you just book the best deal you can find?

A historic street in Chinatown named for its Hindu temple? Temple Street is more than just an exemplary example of Singapore's multiculturalism – it's the perfect stretch for a quickie walking tour.

As training camp is upon us and the Eagles start to prepare for the season ahead, they will running plays at a different venue this year. For the first time in 17 years, the Eagles will be holding training camp at Lincoln Financial Field instead of Lehigh University in Bethlehem. This is not the only thing to change within the Eagles organization with new coach Chip Kelly and uncertainly at the quarterback position. But as a Lehigh Valley local that has gone to a fair share of training camps, I would lie if I said I wasn't missing camp this year.
I understand why the Eagles made the change to practice close to home this year. There are certainly advantages to practicing in the same stadium you play in, and the players also prefer staying at home rather than in college dorms. Staying local also reduces travel and housing costs for the team. Additionally, there is significantly more seating at the NovaCare complex and Lincoln Financial Field, allowing more fans to get in on the action and watch practice.
There were so many great things about having training camp at Lehigh though. As important as it is to feel comfortable on home turf, practicing on different fields allows the team to become more adaptable playing under different conditions. Local businesses also prospered when training camp was held at Lehigh. When the Eagles came to town, "Welcome Eagles Players and Fans" signs adorned many restaurants' and other businesses' windows. If nothing else, Eagles training camp outside of Philadelphia was a great way to reach out to fans that could not make it to games during the season. Players frequented local businesses, and it was not uncommon to see some players at the local diner and other restaurants, which was really cool! They were so friendly, willing to talk to fans and sign autographs, which was great publicity for the team too. Free tickets to watch the team practice offered anyone in the area the opportunity to see the team play.
Although I get why the Eagles, and many other NFL teams, have decided to stay close to home for training camp, I will sadly miss their visit to Lehigh University this year. One of my best memories was when I was thirteen, standing on the practice field, right next to the team as they ran through plays. Jevon "the Freak" Kearse was standing less ten feet away from me, and I was so close I could see how big his arm was compared to my waist. It was such a cool experience and made watching the Eagles on TV that much better. I hope that by hosting training camp in Philly this year, with more seating and reduced costs, more fans can have this kind of experience. However, I will always miss the Eagles' visit to Lehigh and would love for the team to return.

All dusty and dirty with the sand on the teeth,
All day in the saddle and I'm always in the business,
Colt me - as a father, as a bullet - as a mother,
From birth I was taught to kill.
For the money is ready for any job
Fishing, killing a raccoon
Build a dam, to get dynamite,
Thief to catch, you find pyrite.
I can get it for a penny corn
Sorry did not grow up here big watermelons.
But there is a saloon, where ever you are happy
It poured whiskey and lipstick stain,
Beautiful virgins passionate pleasures,
Are all night kiss.
And in the morning to hit the road again,
Job search, then to rest,
Although it is better to enter the face bullies
And you can beat the Indians in the tavern,
Full of knuckles, caressing my Colt
I loaded all the two hundred and twenty volts.
Bloody flower growing in her eyes,
Now they will meet only in our dreams.
Yes, revenge, but has not become easier,
After all, together with the decline of the soul dies.
This is the Wild West, there is no place for the weak,
Here the people involved from the hard dough
Worker, Indian, laborer and the thief
To finish our conversation.

Kids go down
The slide…they head toward the swings
Free time ends
Their parents want to go home
Frowns exchange

balloon breaks on faucet
spray giggles
The eyes of children
Wild with laughter and vigor
So clear and so bright

spilled milk on the floor
blood trails off from broken glass
a child runs and hides
*April is Child Abuse Awareness Month.
Mom and Dad divorce;
the kids are damaged for life;
but some are relieved.
Throwing bouncy ball
It zigzagged...it spiraled mad
Who KNOWS where it goes
Hopping to and fro
it's quite a funny
Scene to watch that ball o o o
Take them to the light…
Blest be the children that… go
Softly in the night
A small step into
Eternity…a place of
Peace and love and right
Know they go where all
Good goes…those children that go
Softly in the night
That when we see them
Once again…they'll take our hand
…Lead us to the light…
Gently kiss them on
The brow…gently let them go
…Softly in the night…
Innocent soul with an empty mind
seeks constant love and protection
a fast but vulnerable learner
The children's laughter
So sweet, pure and innocent
Life gets in the way


text: Unless you have a LARGE Bundt pan, I would recommend making a half-pound cake. The receipt is simple: 1/2 pound each of butter, flour, sugar and eggs; cream the butter; separate and beat the eggs; mix all together; add two ounces of rosewater or brandy; add the grated peel of a lemon; pour into buttered-and-floured pan; bake at 350 until done. I'm not sure on the actual cooking time, probably at least half an hour and more like an hour. It was funny the first time I made one at home, having only made pound cakes in the historic kitchens at Colonial Williamsburg. When it was time to bake, I knew I needed two shovelfulls of coals underneath the bake kettle and one on top, but was at a complete loss as to the temperature and time for a modern oven.

I know this website has been mentioned many times before, but now there is a section saying what my diffraction limit is: see CALCULATING THE DIFFRACTION LIMIT
If i read it right then with my 18M APS-c camera I'm diffraction limited at f11.
So there is no point me shooting landscapes at f16.
Not at all - read after the Diffraction Limit calculator into the real world application part - plus the real world examples part just under the calculator.
All the calculator is showing is when diffraction softening of your photo will start to appear on a 100% crop view or on a regular print (depending on the option you tick). This does not mean you can't shoot any smaller than that point, it simply means that you've started to get softer results than the optimum the lens is capable of.
Just as you can shoot wider than the sharpest aperture on your lens you can shoot smaller too - real world shooting, subject requirements, post processing after taking the photo and real world presentation of the result will all factor into where you draw your own line on diffraction.
Sometimes Science and Art conflict.
As photography is very much a combination of science and art, we are often on the divide. And oftentimes right in the middle.
If I try to use that to resolve your problem I get a very mixed solution.
If you are in artistic mode, say "stuff the diffraction".
If you are in scientific mode, say "Ooops".
Frankly, at the margins (or even quite a way in from the margins) the difference is of very little consequence.
Diffraction limitations exist. Fact.
Will they matter on a 40' Billboard? No.
Will they matter on a 6' x 4' Canvas print? No.
Will they matter on a 10" x 8" print? No.
Will they matter when analysing a lens optical results when doing a 100% crop of the the image? Yes.
Try shooting at different apertures (F8, F11, F16 and F22) to see the difference your self - you will likely see only small differences are you go just past the diffraction limit, which then get progressively bigger as you continue to stop down. for example, you might find F11 perfectly acceptable, but F16 less so
Also worth checking out the hyper-focal distance for your camera + lens.... chances are you you may not need to go past F11 anyway.
ikett - it is all over Luminous Landscapes like a bad rash! They have a lot of talk of using deconvolution sharpening to overcome/lessen the impact and discussion of whether it works or is snake oil.
Personally I am not going to worry too much about it, even on the D800.

Unfortunately many of the LL contributors demonstrate that unique American combination of abject ignorance coupled with unbridled arrogance. Best just to ignore them and stick to ePz.
Artists VS tech people
I'll never understand either branch of the extremists fully. Suffice to say some get all wound up when people talk about photography in a purely technical and factual manner whilst others get all wound up when its all about art and nothing else.
The only firm similarity I can draw is that a lot who get wound up about the other side being wrong often don't actually understand what it is that they are reading. Sadly compositional theory and artistic methods can be as alien to some as physics and computer tech is to others.
Myself - I try to learn a smattering of both and then balance each as the situations occur. In the end learning what the technical limitations of your equipment is, is an important factor. It gives you the power of choice through information as opposed to just blind guesses (eg you've good light, a good shutter speed and a subject which isn't calling for a specific aperture - if you want to maximise image quality knowing where on the aperture scale your sweet spot is is important - just as it is to know where the point at which diffraction softening becomes too great for your own standards).
Yes there will always be situations where the lighting and the shot call for less than perfect settings.
Diffraction is a real phenomenon whose effect has grown out of all proportion for two reasons: its main proponents are people who like to sound technical and as if they know what they are talking about; and some things become 'fact' for no reason other than it is repeated a zillion times on the internet.
It is not a real world problem.
In all my years on different phot websites, I have never, ever seen/heard someone criticise a photo by saying 'nice picture, shame about the diffraction'.
Mike to try it a different way. Diffraction is more an issue if you are trying to justify why you need a camera with lots of MP. But if you are bumbling along at a lower level of resolutions its less of an issue From what I can see my compact looks to spend most of its life taking photo's that are diffraction limited. Its why putting more pixels into it will result in small changes in resolution.
So to my eyes diffraction is real, but is it a problem. I would say if I go past f16 on my SLR I believe I can start to see a real world difference. Conversely running it at @ f11 looks to be fine. If you shoot a lot of blue things you may notice it more. Its like depth of field calculations. It is good to comprehend the principal and have a rule of thumb understanding. But worrying about absolute calculations may not be so important. Unless you are trying to produce very high resolution images.............

Wide receiver and special team's ace Kassim Osgood has been signed by the San Francisco 49ers to a one-year contract. To make room on the roster the team placed linebacker Nick Moody on the Injured Reserve/Designated for Return List.
It's great to see Osgood back with the Niners as he was with team during training camp and the preseason. On August 31, he was released from the team in the final roster cuts before the season. He is a two-time All-Pro and three-time Pro Bowl selection as a special team's player. In his ten-year career, he has 122 tackles on special teams.
I was surprised Osgood did not make the regular season roster because of his special team's skills. He was likely not kept on the roster because they did not have space for him, as opposed to dwindling abilities. He will make San Francisco's kick and punt coverage teams even more potent. In addition, he will give the receiving corps more depth in case of any injuries. In 152 career games, he has 44 receptions for 749 yards and five touchdowns.

Dear Dr. Bunch:
In its meeting of 20 February, the Commission of Fine Arts reviewed final material finishes for several components of the National Museum of African American History and Culture of the Smithsonian Institution, now under construction at 14th Street and Constitution Avenue, NW. Commending the Smithsonian's careful and thorough research of options, the Commission approved the preferred alternatives for the proposed finishes of the corona panels and landscape–related building materials.
The Commission members emphasized that the corona is not only the signifier of the new museum, but also will contribute to the monumental symbolic language of the National Mall. They expressed appreciation for the improvement of the preferred finish for the corona panels over previously presented options, and they endorsed the five–coat bronze–colored polymeric painted finish identified as "Custom Artisan #3.5." They reiterated that all aspects of this exceptionally prominent building and its detailing must be of the highest possible quality, and they emphasized the importance of retaining the spirit and quality of bronze in order to create a rich and memorable visitor experience.
The Commission thanked the Smithsonian Institution for its diligence and thoughtful collaboration in the development of the design over many years and looks forward to the completion of this nationally important cultural institution. As final documentation of the project is completed, the Commission requested that the Smithsonian project team coordinate with the Commission staff for the delegated final review of the inscriptions and any outstanding elements, such as interpretive signage and art installations. As always, the staff is available to assist you with any future submissions.

Sick and Tired
I'm currently eight months pregnant, and my wife Shelly is officially ten weeks pregnant. She's sick and I'm tired; we're quite a pair at this point, but we're getting by. The house could use a good vacuum, but other than that we're getting everything done. We lost our son, Rayne, at 20 weeks due to a placental abruption during Shelly's first pregnancy, so we're holding our breath to see how both of our pregnancies turn out, as we no longer believe anything to be a guarantee. The nursery's almost done, so pictures will be up soon…hopefully.

Tumblr In Talks With Yahoo; Facebook And Microsoft Also Said To Be Circling
While this is the case (and Facebook and Microsoft are definitely ready to pounce), Yahoo currently has Tumblr negotiations under lock and key, Forbes reports:
A source with knowledge of the Yahoo/Tumblr discussions says they are proceeding rapidly and likely to result in an offer as soon as Yahoo CEO Marissa Mayer can get her board's approval. She is said to favor an outright acquisition rather than an investment or partnership. As mentioned above, a lockup agreement prevents Tumblr from holding a bake-off with Facebook, Microsoft or anyone else.
Part of Mayer's courtship has involved working overtime to convince Karp that his fears of being "absorbed into a behemoth" and "raided for talent and traffic" are unfounded. Karp has made it clear that he would like to run Tumblr for a long time. According to my source, he would remain CEO under the outline of the deal being worked out.
Those last two sentences are key.

Sexism does exist. →

I hear: I want you to submit to being bullied for my entertainment and convenience.
And Normal Fucking People Think: I can understand this if it weren't for the fact you call a man you never met "Bendydick Cumbersnatch".

We are still a young country, and many of our landmark civil rights decisions are fresh enough that the voices of their champions still echo, even as the world that preceded them becomes less and less familiar. We have yet to celebrate the centennial of the 19th Amendment, but a society that denied women the vote would seem to us now not unusual or old-fashioned but alien. I believe that in 2013 DOMA and opposition to marriage equality are vestiges of just such an unfamiliar society.–
President Bill Clinton "It's time to overturn DOMA" (via demnewswire)
I side-eyed this when I first saw it this morning, because Clinton is the one who signed DOMA in the first place. But he explains that he did that because otherwise Congress might have passed a Constitutional amendment against same-sex marriage, which would have been a lot harder to undo. This is a good op-ed, although I think more people who are fans of Bill Clinton are also on the correct side of the marriage equality argument.

Installing Windows 7 Getting Rid of RAID
Hi guys
I will be upgrading to Windows 7 soon from XP and i have a few questions before i jump in head first
So basicly i have a RAID0 setup at the mo on 2 500gb SATA drives and reading on here and other places tht really i gain no extra performance on it and just upping my risk of loosing my DATA. So wha i want to do is get rid of my RAID0 and install Windows to 1 drive then just use the other for games music and other stuff. Now i no 500gb is alot for just an os but i dont want to buy another HD. So do i formatt the RAID0 First then split it or how do i go about this.
Also any tips would be nice as i havent installed an OS other than XP for ages
THanks for Reading

Hello Dany,
You would need to split/delete the RAID in the RAID setup screen at boot first. Usually you have a key combination like CNTL+I that you press quickly when you see the RAID screen at boot to enter the RAID setup screen. From here, you would just split/delete the RAID.
From this point, you would just boot from your Windows 7 installation disc, and select a HDD to install Windows 7 on.
Clean Install Windows 7
Clean Install with a Upgrade Windows 7 Version
Hope this helps,

Hi guys i have just installed windows 7 and im really enjoying it the install took next to no time and went real smooth.
One problem if u can call it tht when i split up my raid my system never formatted it. I thought tht the Windows 7 install would ask me to formatt my drive later on in the process anyway so i just carried on. I then came to the screen where windows ask's u what hard drive u want to install in on and it showed my 2 hard drive both wit just shy of 500gb free on each. I went to formatt but it was greyed out and so i couldnt click it. I picked a drive anyway and the install went through no problems.
I got into Windows 7 and windows only saw 1 drive i went to my computer found the other drive formatted it and called it ,E: the formatt took maybe 60 seconds. To me something seems odd is this normall :/

Hi Dany,
No worries. This is normal. The drive probably would have needed to be deleted before it allowed you to format it. However, when you do a clean install, Windows 7 will format the selected drive by default before it actually installs on it anyways.

Small Cool 2009: tiffanyH's Subterranean Space
Little Division #34
Who Lives Here: tiffanyH + 1 + cat
Location: Morristown, New Jersey
Size: 780 square feet
What is your one favorite element in your small, cool home? My favorite element is the fact that, yes, I do live subterraneanly — but it certainly does not feel like a typical basement. We have tried very hard to keep the space light and (somewhat) minimal. By opting to keep the walls white it really maximizes the overall feel of our home. We add pops of color to keep things interesting.

What was one of the biggest challenges you faced in furnishing your small home? I've found there are several challenges to living in a basement apartment. A big one being the numerous access panels and breaker boxes randomly scattered about our walls. We have become very creative in disguising things, ergo the wood art in the dining room and the hinged bookshelf off the kitchen. And when we could not find a sturdy enough wall to mount our television, my boyfriend concocted a brilliant idea. We bought a telescoping support column that is used in construction. We painted it black, drilled the necessary holes to attached our tv and voila, It works great!

whats that door being blocked by the sofa? i love your colors
I really like your place. It looks like something I could be happy living in.
Is that a vintage real or vintage knockoff eams lounge chair & ottoman?
Ditto on the sofa placement that's blocking the door? Everything else is pretty & charming.
"Is that a vintage real or vintage knockoff eams lounge chair & ottoman?"
It's a vintage Selig knockoff.
Very nice place - but I agree that the LR needs rearranging so that you can use that closet.
Just like every one else - whats up with the door being blocked!!!!! Its so nuts! haha
I love your kitchen so much. And the bedroom. the those amazing wine bottles.
very very nice
hahaha @ watching HGTV.
Very nice, simple, open, and clean. I like.
very nice space...
I really like what you've done-- I can't tell that you live in a basement at all! I am curious as to the sofa placement, as well.
Thanks for the comments guys! Trust me we know it's odd to have the couch blocking the closet, but it's actually only a closet housing the hot water heater and tons of water pipes. The reason the couch is not on the other wall is because that is where the only base board heater resides. Obviously it was too much of a fire hazard to have the couch right up against it. Hey, you work with what you have, ya know!!! :)
oh Tiff it looks great! I want to come viist!
I really love your place. It feels comfortable and well thought of. I understand completely about working with what you have... it only adds to the charm jejeje.
How many windows are there? The only one I noticed was in the DNRM....
Great job!
I would have never thought it was a basement. I've never seen such a nice basement apartment.
i knew there had to be a good reason to block that door.
your place is quite lovely. i'd love coming home to a place like yours each day
I LOVE your place! I was curious as to where you got your sofa? We too have a knockoff eams lounge chair/ottoman and I'm having a heck of a time finding a sofa that compliments it. Yours goes perfectly! TIA!
I've seen a lot of basement apartments, but none done up so nicely as yours! The painting on the living room wall is superb. You have done a great job keeping the scale of pieces dramatic enough to make a statement, but airy enough so that it's not too cluttered. Lovely!
Here is what I love the clean, open vintage feel to your place. Nicely done.
@ maddiesmama: That couch looks like the Corona sofa from Macy's.
i love your space! fantastic job. i've actually been looking for a small glass end table - similar to the one that you have - next to the chair; with the orange dishes on it. where did you get it? i really like it. let me know - thanks.
really nice!
I really like it - this does however encompass two of my interior styling pet peeves - the "casually" placed shoes, and the floating flowers! Otherwise, really nice - sophisticated, but feels comfy as well...
omg, im so in love with this place. LOVE!
really great space - kudos on creating the wood art to cover the box on the wall - it looks fab.
this does not look like a basement at all (i could only tell because of the placement of the windows) and is very well decorated. you've done an excellent job of giving it a 'light' feel.
thumbs up!
Love the wall color in the bedroom. Great space!
I like the contented cat. It's very nice and only 780 square feet.
Oh man am I jealous! I also live in a basement apartment and I have the same couch as you and blue walls...but my place isn't nearly as nice, I would love to have your kitchen. I have 3 of those high rectangular windows too..drags me down in the winter man. I love your breaker box cover idea too! Great job!
I like the overlapping wooden squares art. Where did you get that?
What a beautiful space. Your bedroom looks so inviting and relaxing!
Heather C: The art in living room was a score from a local thrift store... it's signed "shelly 1969"
Elizcrtv: I actually made the overlapping wood piece from scraps of wood I found in my garage.
i love ur laurel lamp i have one too but the base is chrome
You really have done a great job of making this space feel very light...and big!
Love your wood art in the dining room and all of your furniture (We have that same Corona sofa from Macy's, too)! Very nice place!
you get extra credit for making all of us want to live in a basement... bravo
This is absolutely beautiful. Like other ppl have said, this actually makes me want to live in a basement apt! I've never seen one done up as spectacularly as this. Amazing job.
I can't believe that you have the exact painting we have. We found ours at a thrift shop as well thousands of miles from you. Great place, can't believe it is a basement!
Does one need to be especially handy to pull off the Tv support column project? or need a special drill?
Love the TV holder!
you have such a wonderful apt! Can you tell me the name of your contractor? It's so hard to get good help these days!
Please tell me where you got this wine on the wall. I love it!
Please tell me where you got this wine rack on the wall. Love it!
luvin' the kitchen! :D

I'm sitting at my internship and reading the confusing and therefore tediously boring EPA Proposed Rule on Effluent Limitations Guidelines (The most exciting part of the rule is it's repeated use of "sluice").
I began playing with my hair, wiggling my fingers through the knots that accumulate at the dead ends. I realized that I have not cut my hair in a year and have not dyed it in a year and half. This got me on a train of thought that lead to all the anniversaries I celebrate (mentally) that have to do with my effort to reduce my environmental impact. I have not eaten meat in two and a half years, have not painted my nails for nine months, have not bought bottled water or fast food in three, and the list continues, "I have not, I have not, I have not."
When I was on a phone interview for my position as a Sustainability Ambassador this past year, I was asked what I do to live more sustainably. This question, in retrospect, seems miss-worded. I would suggest rewording it to, "What do you do, or refrain from doing, in the name of sustainability?"
I've taken writing and argument classes, and I understand that emphasizing the positive is more effective than the negative in "calls to action". In this case though, I would argue that phrasing it in this way acknowledges the wastefulness of average U.S. citizens lifestyles. We can be more sustainable by simply abstaining from certain frivolous activities/habits/purchases.
Not doing sounds a whole lot easier than doing.
To paraphrase Nike: "Just don't do it."
There are non-dietary reasons to eat fewer animal products. Even if their nutritional profile were unambivalently beneficial, they use too many resources: land, water, energy and — not the least important — food that could nourish people. (To the often-asked question, "How will we feed the 9 billion?" — used to defend a host of objectionable agricultural practices — many of us say, "Focus more on feeding people plants and less on feeding them animals.")
And there are two other factors to consider: the industrial production of livestock is a major (if not the leading) contributor to greenhouse gases, and the rampant and nearly unregulated use of antibiotics in that production is making those drugs less effective while encouraging the development of hardier disease-causing germs.
Parts of the vast High Plains Aquifer, once a prodigious source of water, are now so low that crops can't be watered and bridges span arid stream beds.
Well shit. #wheresallthewatergone

Finally told Nightowl that his ship looks unwieldy and stupid and that naming it after Merlin's owl was a dumb idea. I hug him when I see that I made him cry. He tells me that he can't get it up without his costume on. It got really wierd really fast. Told him to keep that fact under wraps.

We offer two ways to locate information:
Red wines that are more fruit-forward and lighter in tannin and body.
Medium bodied reds that go down easy, with smooth tannins and supple fruit.
Wines where earthy and/or spicy dominate the flavors – typically medium to full body.
Full bodied wines that have concentrated fruit and are higher in alcohol and/or tannins. Some need age.
Intense ruby color. Dark chocolate and bright red fruit aromas, with hints of tobacco The mid palate has a rich texture, very well balanced. Notes of dark cherry and licorice flavors on the mouth, with velvety tannins and a lingering finish.
"Rich and ripe, this Cabernet Sauvignon-dominant wine is filled out with Merlot and Cabernet Franc. It has enormous flavors of cherry tart, cassis, mocha and toast, and they seem to change with every sip. The tannin structure is smooth, with a dusty astringency that provides grip. Already excellent, this should develop bottle complexity over the next 6–8 years."

When Anthony Terlato and his sons Bill and John became winery owners and vintners in 1996, they started with one goal in mind: excellence. The concept was to produce wines that were consistent in quality and as important as those the Terlato family imported and marketed during the last half century. The bar was already set high, because they are associated with the best.

It's hard not to think of Napa Valley when thinking of California wines. The region is, after all, the one that brought world recognition to California wine making.

Chuck Noland:
We both had done the math. Kelly added it all up and... knew she had to let me go. I added it up, and knew that I had... lost her. 'cos I was never gonna get off that island. I was gonna die there, totally alone. I was gonna get sick, or get injured or something. The only choice I had, the only thing I could control was when, and how, and where it was going to happen. So... I made a rope and I went up to the summit, to hang myself. I had to test it, you know? Of course. You know me. And the weight of the log, snapped the limb of the tree, so I-I - , I couldn't even kill myself the way I wanted to. I had power over *nothing*. And that's when this feeling came over me like a warm blanket. I knew, somehow, that I had to stay alive. Somehow. I had to keep breathing. Even though there was no reason to hope. And all my logic said that I would never see this place again. So that's what I did. I stayed alive. I kept breathing. And one day my logic was proven all wrong because the tide came in, and gave me a sail. And now, here I am. I'm back. In Memphis, talking to you. I have ice in my glass... And I've lost her all over again. I'm so sad that I don't have Kelly. But I'm so grateful that she was with me on that island. And I know what I have to do now. I gotta keep breathing. Because tomorrow the sun will rise. Who knows what the tide could bring?
Chuck Noland:
Do, do you have to keep bringing that up, huh? Ok, so it was a good thing we did a test because it wasn't going to be just a quick snap. Would've broken my neck, or leg or my back. Would've bled to death on the beach, but it's in the past. It was what, a year ago? SO let's just forget it.

Hulk Hogan just can't seem to identify his female co-star in the sex tape that just surfaced -- telling TMZ, he banged so many chicks after he left his ex-wife ... the woman could be one of MANY possible conquests.
Hulk called in to TMZ Live moments ago ... claiming he went on a 4-month alcohol-fueled lady-screwing bender between the time when he left his ex-wife Linda ... and met his current wife Jennifer.
Hulk tells us, "During that time, I don't even remember people's names, much less girls."
Hulk says he hasn't had sex with another woman since meeting Jennifer 5 years ago -- so the tape has to be at least 5 years old.
Hulk still has no idea who's selling the tape or how that person acquired it -- but Hulk's lawyer says, "If anyone goes forward with this thing, we're gonna find 'em and we're gonna prosecute."
Walk around pulling your tummy into your spine (tightening the muscles) will tighten the abs, just walk around all day like that. Do pilates and yoga, anything from the core and you will have a strong core and beautiful abs and a toned tummy.
Give it up dude. You're too old and your need to change your look. Lose the dew rag and the outdated moustache. You need a complete make-over.
I'm pretty sure it's Brooke in the video.
Ugh ...that old man ,hope he didn't catch STD's or even AIDS ,disgusting ..
How sad! what a great example for his kids....his daughter behave better than him or her mother! I feel sorry for the daughter with parents like that how embarrasing!
This is sick! It's vintage, tawdry TNA. You'd never see someone like the Miz get into a situation like this, ladies and gentlemen.
Ew. How could anyone actually want to sleep with him and that mustache? Also.....just......ew.
So many partners he doesn't remember their names? God bless you, Hulk, that's awesome.
Gross. Period.
That is one of the many things I don't want to see...ever. He must be trying to sell another crappy reality show. Ugh.
Good work, brother.
So he don't know who he screw? Man I am shock he doesn't have a STD
He does not remember his sex partner. In this day and age of HIV that is not only dangerous but very stupid. To be honest with you that is nothing to brag about.
"I don't even remember people's names, much less girls." O.K. but maybe he can remember HIS name? It is obvious to me, that these two romantic love birdies where Hulk & Brutus in love. I mean, if this is the way they do it, fine!
