Then the reality is that most enterprises are embarking on a hybrid cloud strategy and programs.

It's the vision of a world in which continuous Internet connectivity and addressability is embedded into a growing range of human artifacts, into the natural world, and even into our smartphones, appliances, and physical persons.

Italian Dining Destination Opens in Westlake
Giardino, a new Italian dining destination, just opened in Westlake courtesy of seasoned restaurateurs Giorgio Pierangeli (Sherman Oaks' OlivA, Brentwood's Pecorino and Newbury Park's Local Table) and Matteo Carletti (Calabasas' Toscanova) in the former Plug Nickel. Helming the kitchen is chef Francesco Pesce (Crudo in Santa Barbara and London's Michelin-starred Locanda Locatelli). All three are from the Marche region in Italy—which in turn is the inspiration for Giardino's menu and ambience, as a "love letter," you could say, to the region.

The Homeless
Treading the highways and byways seemingly without a care
Walking about the streets alone nobody knows you're there
Pushing a cart so ladened with all of their earthly goods
Sleeping under a bridge at night or camping out in the woods
When you come into their presence all you can do is just stare
They return the look that shows only emptiness is lurking there
If only something you could say but you're caught at a lost for words
Remember God watches over them the same as He does for the birds
Even the homeless have a place to lay down their weary heads
They pile their clothes up so high just to build makeshift beds
Catching water from a leaky faucet just to get a cool drink
Survival is a constant struggle always living life on the brink
They also have a circle of friends and gather together as a group
Sometimes food is plentiful and at times just a cup of soup
They will always be a part of society that's called the human race
Lets not look at the outside but on the inside that is full of grace

Your poem captures the plight of deprived ones so very vividly: Survival is a constant struggle always living life on the brink, how very true. But the tragic part is that despite so much advancement of Human race, ' They will always be a part of society...' Can't we evolve a social structure which takes care of the unfortunate ones.

they say they are the bottom of the barrel, but if you ask me I find that hard to swallow no one knows the pains that they have gone through, I 'm sure this was not the life that they chose to go thru.
many could not deal with what life threw their way, so they abandoned it all and tried to run away.
yet underneath the torn clothes and dirty hands, they are always there to help their fellow man. (Report) Reply

The deprived and the marginalized also are our brethren and shouldn't be shunned! By sheer chance while some are born with silver spoons in their mouths, into the lap of comforts and riches, some others, for no fault of theirs happen to land on streets and pavements! So there is no need to feel great about ourselves or look at others with contempt! Your poem reminds us not to forget the ballads of the slums! A compassionate write! (Report) Reply

Falklands population stagnant, aging, census finds
A census in the Falkland Islands has produced some results that fundamentally challenge what many outsiders think about the people who live in the remote, wind-swept archipelago that Britain and Argentina fought over 30 years ago.
Associated Press
A census in the Falkland Islands has produced some results that fundamentally challenge what many outsiders think about the people who live in the remote, wind-swept archipelago that Britain and Argentina fought over 30 years ago.
For one thing, most residents of this self-governing British Overseas Territory don't consider themselves British. Fifty-nine percent say their national identity is "Falkland Islander," compared to 29 percent who feel "British."
That has implications for Argentina, which refuses to deal directly with the Falkland Islands' local government, and accuses Britain of running what Argentines call the Islas Malvinas as an illegal colony.
The survey also puts the average annual income at $32,213, much higher than Argentina's $9,620 as of last year, or that of the Falklands' other Latin American neighbors.
The income figure underlines how much things have changed since before the 1982 war.
Back then, wool prices had bottomed out internationally and invading Argentine soldiers were told they would be welcomed by impoverished and oppressed tenant farmers. Instead, they encountered a stubbornly defiant population that helped British troops retake the islands.
Sheltered by continued military support, Falklanders have seen their livelihoods greatly improve since the war, with revenue flowing in from fisheries, tourism and offshore oil development.
But the census also reveals an existential challenge: The islands' population hasn't grown since the last survey was done in 2006. There are only 2,563 residents after civilian contractors and British military personnel and their dependents are excluded.
The population is aging rapidly, too, with the ranks of people older than 65 increasing by 14 percent in the last six years.
"If the Falklands is to progress we need to increase our population," said Les Harris, a 73-year-old retired power station manager who was born in Chile.
The census shows unemployment at just 1 percent, with one-fifth of all workers having multiple jobs. The largest employer by far is the government, at 28 percent, followed by agriculture (11 percent) and hospitality and tourism (11 percent).
Offshore oil and gas development could bring sudden wealth to the islands if several drilling efforts strike it rich. But the effort currently employs just 26 islanders, and there simply aren't enough people around to work the jobs created by a growing economy.
"There is virtually no spare capacity within the labor market to accommodate any additional employment opportunities that may arise in the future. Indeed, almost 20 percent of persons in employment have more than one job," the government said Tuesday.
The census shows immigration slowing, due to one of the world's most restrictive policies: Newcomers aren't allowed to apply for islander status, giving them voting rights among other things, until they have completed seven years of residency. That can be done only by repeatedly renewing temporary labor contracts. Even then, only 40 people can apply each year, and not all are accepted.
The census says 70 percent of the population, 1,973 people, are Falkland Islanders or Falkland Island Status Holders. Only 4.3 percent, 121 people, have the permanent residence permits that enable them to apply for islander status.
"We don't have a big enough work force to get things done," said Tim Cotter, an executive at Falklands Islands Development Corp. "... In the short term, we could employ seasonal workers from St. Helena and South America, and those who like it, and fit in, will stay. That is the way the population has grown since the beginning."
Government officials have said that if they don't carefully control immigration, Argentines could move in and vote to reclaim the territory. But many islanders also have expressed doubts about Britain's willingness to continue defending its South Atlantic fringe.
The result has been zero population growth in one of the world's most under-populated and unspoiled places, a set of islands about the size of Northern Ireland or the U.S. state of Connecticut, with mountain ranges and wide plains, meandering rivers and white-sand beaches, plentiful wetlands and an incredible variety of wildlife.
And fewer people than many public high schools have in the United States.
Three quarters of the population lives in the capital, Stanley, while several hundred people live scattered on remote farms around the islands. Outside town, there are only several gravel roads, and many people depend on boats or small planes to get around.
The government has plans for a permanent port for bigger oil, fishing and cruise ships, and hotels and paved roads so visitors can stay long enough to see historic sites and wildlife.
Expanded drilling would require a dedicated fresh water system, and economic growth will require more windmills for the wind energy that already provides a third of the islands' electricity.
If the Falklands get even a fraction of the $10.5 billion in taxes and royalties some industry analysts have predicted will flow from just one of the offshore oil fields being explored, islanders could become richer than Saudi oil barons.
But as this year's census shows, that future has yet to arrive.
Associated Press writer Corina Goss reported this story in the Falkland Islands and Michael Warren reported from Buenos Aires, Argentina.

After a painful few months, Kris Jenner can finally find the humor in her daughter Kim Kardashian's short-lived marriage to NBA player Kris Humphries, 27.
"What's a measly little 72 days?" she jokes on the June 25 episode of "Bethenny." And now that Kim, 31, is happily ensconced with Kanye West, 35, Jenner wouldn't be surprised if the two made it down the aisle.
PHOTOS: The Kardashian-Jenner family vacations in Bora Bora
"With Kim, she falls in love really hard. She's a hopeless romantic. And I tell all of my children, 'Follow your heart,'" Jenner, 56, explains. "'Do what you feel and what you want. What you think is the right thing to do, but follow your heart. Be happy.'"
VIDEO: Kris Jenner suggests Kim Kardashian should date Ryan Phillippe
Jenner also debunks breakup rumors regarding her eldest daughter, Kourtney Kardashian, 33, and her love of six years, Scott Disick, 29. (Already parents to son Mason, 2, the couple will welcome a baby girl in the next few weeks.)
PHOTOS: Kim Kardashian and Kanye West pack on the PDA
"Kourtney and Scott are so together. They're always together. They have always been together. They're very, very happy," Jenner says. "She's the one who really doesn't want to get married. But they're really cute. ... When Kourtney's out of town, he's at my house every night for dinner. I'm like, 'He's never going to go home!'"

A nude model, five bodies and the Mormon assassination plot attempt
Tuesday 15 June 2004
This may be the year of the celebrity trial - Michael Jackson the King of Pop on child molestation charges, the basketball star Kobe Bryant accused of rape, the legendary record producer Phil Spector indicted for murder - but the kookiest, darkest, most grimly compelling court case in America may well be one that is receiving almost no media attention at all.
This may be the year of the celebrity trial - Michael Jackson the King of Pop on child molestation charges, the basketball star Kobe Bryant accused of rape, the legendary record producer Phil Spector indicted for murder - but the kookiest, darkest, most grimly compelling court case in America may well be one that is receiving almost no media attention at all.
This week, a jury in Martinez, a small town outside San Francisco, will retire to consider the bizarre, brutally violent cult surrounding one Glenn Taylor Helzer, a lapsed Mormon accused of bludgeoning and dismembering five people in an elaborate extortion racket intended to hasten the second coming of Jesus Christ.
Helzer, a former stockbroker who has already pleaded guilty and faces the death penalty, exerted a charismatic hold over an eclectic group of followers including his younger brother, a former girlfriend turned Playboy centrefold model, and a self-described "good witch" who once offered to raise money for Armageddon by appearing in porn films.
The first two victims were elderly former clients of Helzer's, who were forced to write cheques for $100,000 (£55,000) while being tortured and held under the influence of the date-rape drug rohypnol. The third victim was Selina Bishop, 22-year-old daughter of the blues guitarist Elvin Bishop, who was initially part of the gang but was then slaughtered to ensure that she did not testify against the others. Her mother, Jennifer Villarin, and her mother's boyfriend were the fourth and fifth victims.
The star witness in the trial was a former housemate of Helzer's, Dawn Godman, who calmly described how she held up the severed heads of three of the victims while another member of the gang bashed their teeth out with a hammer and chisel to make them harder to identify. She also explained how Helzer had hoped to feed the severed bodies of the victims to his pet rottweiler before deciding this was impractical, stuffing them in duffel bags and dumping them in the Sacramento river delta instead.
The culmination of Helzer's plan was to have been an operation codenamed "Brazil", in which he would send South American orphans to Salt Lake City to kill the 15 elders who run the Mormon church.
According to Godman's testimony, Helzer imagined he could blame the murders on the "government behind government" and take over the leadership of the world's 12 million Mormons himself.
Helzer was excommunicated by the Mormons in 1998, which is about the time he started declaring he was the one true prophet of God and devised something called "the 12 Principles of Magic" that included the exhortation: "No such thing as right and wrong."
His ex-girlfriend Keri Mendoza, who went on to become Playboy's Miss September 2000 under the name Kerissa Fare, told the court Helzer had given her the confidence to send her modelling shots to the magazine. "It was special just to know him," she said.
She also described Helzer's younger brother Justin as a gentle soul who ate organic food and refused to kill insects buzzing around the house. Justin's fate will be the main topic of discussion by the jury, who must decide whether his brother's influence in effect rendered him insane or whether he was responsible for helping to commit the murders and subsequent dismemberments.
Godman has already pleaded guilty to her role in the killings and is expected to receive a sentence of 38 years to life. She was spared capital charges in exchange for her testimony, which left the court so sickened that the judge at one point called for a collective "deep breath".
She described how Helzer called her into the bathroom, where Selina Bishop had already been bludgeoned and may already have been dead, telling her he wanted to see the gruesome details of his plan in action. "Spirit says you get to know. This isn't a dream," she quoted him saying. She then described him picking up a knife and slitting the victim's throat.
It was Godman and Justin Helzer who cleaned up after the murders. She explained: "Taylor said he had more important things to do, like sit and meditate and listen to the spirit."

BP urges court to toss judge's settlement approval
BP is trying to persuade a federal appeals court that it should throw out a judge's approval of the company's multibillion-dollar settlement with Gulf Coast residents and businesses.
Last year, BP joined plaintiffs' attorneys in urging U.S. District Judge Carl Barbier to give the deal his final approval. On Friday, however, the company's lawyers argued in a court filing that Barbier's more recent interpretation of settlement terms have allowed businesses to receive hundreds of millions of dollars for inflated or fictitious claims.
In July, BP asked a three-judge panel from the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals to overturn Barbier's rulings governing business payouts.
BP is waiting for a ruling on that appeal. In the meantime, the oil giant is asking the same court to reverse the settlement approval itself.

New York, NY (Sports Network) - Mouphtaou Yarou led all scorers with 18 points on an efficient 9-of-10 shooting display in helping Villanova advance to the quarterfinals of the Big East Tournament with a 66-53 win over St. John's at Madison Square Garden.
Villanova (20-12) improved its NCAA Tournament resume with a victory over then-No. 5 Georgetown last week and further solidified it Wednesday with a convincing win to open conference tourney play.
Ryan Arcidiacono added 15 points and five assists, while JayVaughn Pinkston totaled 12 points and nine rebounds for the seventh-seeded Wildcats, who will play second-seeded Louisville on Thursday.
St. John's saw its NCAA Tournament hopes quickly fade with a 1-6 stretch to end its regular season, playing its final three games without suspended leading scorer D.J. Harrison.
Phil Greene IV paced the 10th-seeded Red Storm (16-15) with 16 points and JaKarr Sampson followed with 13, though the pair combined to shoot 12-of-37 (32 percent) from the floor.
St. John's trailed by a dozen, 18-6 midway through the first half, but clawed back and pulled even at 24-24 by halftime.
Villanova went up by double digits with just over eight minutes remaining after Sampson was whistled for a technical foul for hanging on the rim. Darrun Hilliard made the subsequent free throws and Daniel Ochefu followed with a jumper for a 50-40 cushion.
Greene answered with a 3-pointer and a quick layup to cut the deficit to five, but the Wildcats scored the next seven points to pull away for good.
The contest pitted two of the seven Catholic basketball schools set to depart the current Big East this summer to form their own conference next season.
The University of Montana football program will face a particularly tough ending to its Big Sky Conference schedule next year.
Kasey Kahne will continue to drive for Hendrick Motorsports through the 2018 Sprint Cup season, signing a three-year contract extension on Thursday.

REYKJAVIK, Iceland (AP) — A 15-year-old Icelandic girl has been granted the right to legally use the name given to her by her mother, despite the opposition of authorities and Iceland's strict law on names.
Reykjavik District Court ruled Thursday that the name "Blaer" can be used. It means "light breeze."
The decision overturns an earlier rejection by Icelandic authorities who declared it was not a proper feminine name. Until now, Blaer Bjarkardottir had been identified simply as "Girl" in communications with officials.
"I'm very happy," she said after the ruling. "I'm glad this is over. Now I expect I'll have to get new identity papers. Finally I'll have the name Blaer in my passport."
Like a handful of other countries, including Germany and Denmark, Iceland has official rules about what a baby can be named. Names are supposed to fit Icelandic grammar and pronunciation rules — choices like Carolina and Christa are not allowed because the letter "c'' is not part of Iceland's alphabet.
Blaer's mother, Bjork Eidsdottir, had fought for the right for the name to be recognized. The court ruling means that other girls will be also allowed to use the name in Iceland.

Forget Google or Apple, if you're an engineering major. A new poll shows that more college students in that field are choosing government agencies as their dream employer over private-sector firms.
Employer branding firm Universum recently polled more than 59,640 undergraduates to find out their ideal employer in specific fields of study, including business, engineering and IT. And no surprise there: Google was once again voted the top employer among business and IT majors. The company also earned a number 5 spot among engineering students and was chosen as a preferred employer by nearly half of those students.
The top employer in engineering, however, was a government agency. NASA was picked by 17 percent in its respective field. The Energy Department was also in the top 10 for engineering majors, placing seventh in that category.
Top 10 engineering: 1. NASA2. Boeing3. Lockheed Martin Corporation4. Google5. General Electric6. Apple7. Energy Department8. Exxon Mobil Corporation 9. Walt Disney Company10. BMW
Top 10 IT: 1. Google2. Microsoft 3. Apple 4. Facebook5. IBM6. Amazon 7. Intel 8. Electronic Arts 9. Walt Disney Company10. Sony
The State Department, the FBI and the CIA were popular picks among liberal-arts students, although the Walt Disney Company snagged the top spot.

Fun FridayPosted on November 14th, 2014 in Manly.
Mix of dying SE swell with NE windsell creating some fun 2-3ft peaks for Friday surfers. Sunny day, fun waves, 8am low – great morning for a surf. NNE'ers forecast so north corners should still have waves today.
Mark – Surfboards Direct
Bump n WobblePosted on November 13th, 2014 in Manly.
The SE swell is still around but an ugly overnight ENE wind is making things messy and kind of horrible looking. Sets are almost head high and its the peak of swell for a few days so I guess if you have nothing else to do you can surf
Mark – Surfboards Direct
The odd nice setPosted on November 12th, 2014 in Manly.
Nice clean conditions this morning. A bit of waiting but some nice south swell lines appearing that should be bigger and better at south magnets. Light onshores forecast so well worth a morning surf somewhere today. Low was 6:14am High 12:38
Mark – Surfboards Direct
GrovellersPosted on November 11th, 2014 in Manly.
Tues brings tiny south lines with an almost direct easterly light onshore. It's pretty poor stuff really but there is one foot grovellers for the keen. Maybe squeezing 2 foot sets at more south exposed spots. Supposed to build a little and the wind switch around to a still-ugly SE, south would be better.
Mark – Surfboards Direct
Clean n TinyPosted on November 10th, 2014 in Manly.
Clean n tiny line. Just enough to surf and the smooth early consitions look attractive but it is small. Southerlies are supposed to breeze along all day so it will get ruffled soon enough. High 11:14am
Mark – Surfboards Direct
Sunday needs milkingPosted on November 9th, 2014 in Manly.
Sunday is not bringing anything more than yesterday. Some NE bumps blew up yesterday arvo and faded overnight. Early surfers get the slim pickings with a looming 10:32am high. Forecast says freshening southerlies so to milk something will be north facing protected south corners today I guess – and take some foam.
Late file but not much to filePosted on November 7th, 2014 in Manly.
Late post sorry. Was some small lines this morning. Most likely eaten by the high tide and now by some onshores. Take your favourite longboard and you can probably still surf.
Mark – Surfboards Direct
No Blow UpPosted on November 6th, 2014 in Manly.
Last night there was some epic crazy windswell blowing up big time. Pity the southerly kicked in early and blew it almost flat overnight as sometimes that can make for a window of pumping fun. Morning showed a fading 1-2ft of bumps being eaten by a high tide with all the crew down the south end maximising what was on offer. Not sure if it will last to the 2:45pm low tide.
Mark – Surfboards Direct
BuggallPosted on November 5th, 2014 in Manly.
Bugger all happening for morning surfers with the 7″34am high tide eating the mix mix of small SE and NE swells. Might be more rideable as the tide drops but the NE wind is supposed to kick in
Mark – Surfboards Direct
Worth a surfPosted on November 3rd, 2014 in Manly.
Nice south swell this morning that cleaned up after sunrise but there are light onshores forecast. For now the tide is dropping after a 6am so it should be getting better. There's a good 4-5ft of swell in the water and bigger bombs at the north end but they don't have any shape yet. Well worth a surf.
