The cricket world reacts to the passing away of Phillip Hughes
Phillip Hughes: Country kid who moved a nation
Likeable, hard-working and skilful, it was a matter of time before Phillip Hughes cemented his spot in the Australian Test team. Then, improbably and inconsolably, his time ran out
Hope for Hughes, feel for Abbott
It is impossible to imagine how Sean Abbott must feel after sending down that bouncer to Phillip Hughes. While the cricket world hopes for Hughes' recovery, it should also ensure Abbott is supported
November games need November prices
An early start to the international season, coupled with costly tickets, have kept the Australian public away from the cricket
People across the world paid tribute to Australian cricketer Phillip Hughes, who died on November 27, by putting out their bats

There's room for the 2 Jimmys in late-night TV
The longtime feud between late-night hosts Jay Leno and David Letterman is the stuff of legend and, apparently, so yesterday.
Associated Press
The longtime feud between late-night hosts Jay Leno and David Letterman is the stuff of legend and, apparently, so yesterday.
The two Jimmys: Jimmy Kimmel and Jimmy Fallon, agree there's no rivalry between them.
Both were among the honorees in New York Tuesday at a gala recognizing Time magazine's annual list of the 100 Most Influential People in the World.
"I feel good about it. We're very friendly. I know people expect us to dislike each other and say bad things about each other but that will never happen," said 45-year-old Kimmel.
He agreed that making nice is a good thing.
"It is nice. We're like (vocalist duo) Peaches & Herb. I'm Peaches," he laughed.
They'll face-off in the ratings next year when Fallon leaves NBC's "Late Night with Jimmy Fallon" and replaces Leno as host of "The Tonight Show."
Thirty-eight-year-old Fallon said, as of now, things won't change much when he switches to "The Tonight Show."
"We do a great show now. I think we're ready. I thank Jay Leno for being awesome and still being number one because without him I wouldn't have a job," he laughed. "It's just like they call you up from the minor league so I'm ready to go for the majors and I'm gonna swing for the fences."
In January, ABC's "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" moved to the 11:35 p.m. EST time slot, putting it in direct competition with "The Tonight Show" and "Late Show with David Letterman."

The bouquet shows lifted aromas of honeysuckle and citrus fruits from the Chardonnay, with nougat and roasted nuts. The palate is well balanced with delicate fruit flavors, creaminess and fresh acid, leading to a dry, light finish with lingering flavors of citrus and nougat.$19.99each

@sterling: Mystery solved! I luckily figured that out myself rather early. I would be a bit frustrated if I was like some of the people here, 12+ hours in the game, and didn't have a clue how to do the upgrades. They obviously aren't critical to success, but I have a few on my different characters that are very helpful.
I am actually moving from AMD to Nvidia with a 970. My current system has lasted me nearly 5 years, but driver support from AMD has been a pain point from day one.
@czarpyotr: I'm 7 hours in so far, no explanation at all...but that probably because I'm just wondering about in the hinterlands closing rifts, fetching potions and running away from a nasty dragon. Might need to FAQ it sooner or later to understand the upgrading system....Ratchet's one of my favorite game characters and the avatar is from Deadlocked...though not quite sure why that game was ill received. I loved it to bits.
You have to upgrade your gear at the blacksmith in Haven. There's an upgrade armor and an upgrade weapons kiosk.
Yup, this is it. So far it seems this is only explained if you go to the blacksmith and talk to him. There is a specific dialogue options about upgrading equipment, but even that doesn't straight up say, "Yo, you can only add your fancy weapon upgrades here, not on the field".
@spoonman671: RIGHT HERE MOTHER FUCKER!
Dwarf named Hurley. I just realized I made him look a lot like Russel Crow in Noah. I can't say that disappoints me.
Limbo is really great, but seems like a really weird game to bring to current gen consoles. I think Limbo got the attention it originally did because it was in the first wave of great indie XBLA games. I imagine anyone who has wanted to play this game already has.
@nodima: OH MY GOD I COMPLETELY FORGOT ABOUT THIS!!!!!! I AM DYING OVER HERE!
So the way they thought of this was for Multiplayer LAN blood donation events. So instead of taking that actually decent idea and making it simple by saying having rules in place for the losing players having to give blood based on their performace, they went the literal approach and made a fucking machine to draw blood based on how much you are hurt in game. What a bunch of fucking idiots.
Well folks, I know that the anticipation has been killing you all. I am proud to announce I went with Dragon Age. I made myself a dwarf named Hurley and am ridding the world of all of it's evils.
Since I got a free copy of Far Cry 4 with my new video card that will most likely be the first game I play on my new PC. I still plan on getting GTA 5 eventually, maybe for christmas?!
Thank you all for aiding me in this great decision, I couldn't have done it without each and everyone of you.
Game changer, folks. I recently bought a gtx 970 for my new PC. Got an email this morning for a free copy of a game. I got to choose between the crew, ass creed unity, or far cry. Easy choice. I will be picking up GTA 5 or Dragon Age within 4 and a half hours! Keep those votes coming!

Moto G: 10 Tips and Tricks You Should Know to Extend and Improve Battery Life
- Order Reprints
- Text Size
By Ryan Inoyori | June 11, 2014 2:59 PM EST
Moto G is one of the cheapest smartphones available in the market that can be upgraded to Android 4.4.3 KitKat. If you are having issues with its short battery life, here are some useful tricks to extend it throughout the day.
1. Display Management
Manage the display brightness and screen time-out to the level of your comfort. Set the brightness appropriate to your eyesight and reduce the screen time-out to minimum especially if you always forget to turn the display off.
2. Not a Fan of Google Now?
If you don't use Google Now and prefer manual use of the Web browser, turn off the feature. Open the app then go to its Setting Menu to turn it off to prevent it from consuming memory and battery.
3. Disable Certain Apps
Some apps can consume power without your knowledge and it is best to disable them if not used regularly. Go to Settings > Applications > All > Select apps > Uninstall updates > Disable. You may also disable Google services you don't use to save data, memory and power.
4. Manual Data Syncing
Manual syncing of data can conserve a lot of power and you can do this by going to Settings > Accounts > Google > Synchronisation. In addition, you can also manage in-app auto syncing on Facebook and Twitter to prevent them from gathering data all the time. It also works with email clients such as Microsoft Exchange, default email and Gmail.
5. Turn Off Wireless Connections
Whenever you are finished using wireless connections, switch off the appropriate radios such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and GPS. It is also advisable to use Wi-Fi instead of mobile data if available for syncing data online.
6. Location Services
Android KitKat can manage Location Services to conserve more power. Go to Settings > Location > Turn it off. If you use the service at certain times, set the Mode to low accuracy to prevent huge power consumption.
7. Stop Daydreaming
Daydream is a fancy animation for Android devices but it can drain power if your device is not plugged in. Moreover, Daydream may slowdown the recharging time required and may even cause high temperature since it is a system process.
8. Setting Up the Network
Your Moto G may be using 3G as a default network setup so you can automatically browse better with mobile data. If you use Wi-Fi most of the time, set the network mode into 2G to save power. Go to Settings > More > Mobile Networks > Network Mode > 2G.
9. Reboot Regularly
Like any other smartphones, Moto G require some refresh time and it is recommended to reboot the device after every full recharge. Reboot can fix certain bugs, free memory on the RAM and display more accurate battery level.
10. Power Boosters
There are certain power boosters available at the Play Store to increase battery life.
a. Clean Master: All-in-one battery saver, cache cleaner and antivirus app. It also features a set of toggles for Wi-Fi, flashlight and more which you can customise.
b. Greenify: You can go advance to prevent apps from draining power. The app can set the device into hibernation to avoid system lags and power-eating services.

Simpsonville couple says therapy dog stolen
Updated On: Apr 15 2012 06:59:04 PM EDT
A Simpsonville couple said their 3-month-old boxer puppy, which they used as a therapy dog, was stolen.
"It's just heartbreaking to know that somebody else has your little girl," owner Fred Deckert said.
Deckert said the dog, named Lala, helped him cope with bi-polar disorder.
The Deckerts came home on March 21 to see that the dog was gone. They said after they put up lost dog flyers the next day, two neighbors came forward to say the dog was stolen.
"She came over when she saw our flyers and said 'Your dog wasn't lost. Your dog was taken, and we saw the people taking her." And she said she turned around to find out the license plate number on the car, but it was too late," Lori Deckert said.
The neighbor said the woman who took the dog was picked up by a man driving an older model Chevy Lumina.
The Deckerts said they reported the theft to the Greenville County Sheriff's Office and are offering a $500 reward for Lala's safe return.
"We just really need to have her back so my husband can get on with a somewhat normal life. And we're willing to let bygones be bygones if you can just bring her back," Lori said, addressing the person who took the dog.

Katie Holmes Joins Meryl Streep in 'The Giver'
Phillip Noyce is directing the YA adaptation for The Weinstein Co. and Walden.
Katie Holmes has closed a deal to join Meryl Streep and Jeff Bridges in The Giver, a drama from The Weinstein Co. and Walden Media that's being directed by Phillip Noyce.
Brenton Thwaites is the young star of the sci-fi project, which tells of a society in which there is no conflict, racism or sickness.
PHOTOS: 17 of the Most Popular YA Properties Adapted for TV and Film
Thwaites plays a young boy who is selected for his life service as the Receiver of Memories and works with The Giver (Bridges), an old man who teaches the boy to use his unique gifts of the senses. Streep is the society's Chief Elder, an authoritative and antagonistic woman who assigns the young their tasks.
Holmes will play Thwaites' mother, a strict obeyer of the laws that govern what is described as an antiseptic society.
The movie, which is eyeing a budget of around $25 million, is being produced by Nikki Silver of Tonik Productions along with Neil Koenigsberg and Bridges.
PHOTOS: 30 Groundbreaking Sci-Fi Films
Michael Mitnick wrote the most recent script adapting the Lois Lowry YA novel.
A shoot in South Africa is being planned, although it is likely that Steep will shoot her scenes in England, where she is filming Disney's Into the Woods.
Holmes is repped by ICM Partners, John Carrabino Management and Sloane Offer.

UNH seeks public's help in locating missing student
In a press release issued this morning, police do not suspect foul play but have reason to be concerned for his well-being. Zygmont was believed to be having relationship difficulties and was despondent.
Zygmont is described as a white male, 5-foot-11, and 175 pounds. He was last seen wearing black shoes, khaki pants, and a brown sweatshirt with the word "Burton" on it in red lettering. He was carrying a black North Face backpack.
UNH officials are working cooperatively with law enforcement agencies in the Seacoast area including Portsmouth Police, Kittery Police, Durham Police, N.H. Marine Patrol, and the U.S. Coast Guard, in the search for Zygmont. Police urge anyone with information on Zygmont's whereabouts to call police at 862-1427.
"Based on the information we have we're eager to find Jonathan and make sure he's OK," said UNH Police Chief Paul Dean.

Call for top tax cut divides UK govt
LONDON (Reuters) - Britain's Liberal Democrats, junior partners in the governing coalition, will oppose a cut in the top income tax rate until allowances for the lowest paid are raised further, a party source said on Wednesday.
A group of high profile economists on Wednesday urged Conservative finance minister George Osborne to ditch the top 50 percent tax rate "at the earliest opportunity" to boost growth.
A senior Conservative minister said he too would like the tax to go -- fuelling coalition tensions over the issue.
Scrapping the tax could be politically damaging for the coalition when the government is committed to austerity measures to cut a record budget deficit.
"Our first priority is tax cuts for low and middle income earners, not the richest people in the country," a Liberal Democrat source said.
"We are not going to prioritise tax cuts for people at the top at a time when everyone is feeling the pinch."
The Liberal Democrats' coalition agreement with the Conservatives rules out other tax cuts until personal income tax allowances are raised to 10,000 pounds ($16,000), the source noted.
The tax-free allowances were raised in the coalition's last two budgets but are still only around 7,500 pounds.
In a letter to the Financial Times on Wednesday, the economists said they were concerned the tax was "doing lasting damage to the UK economy".
"Only by returning to an internationally competitive tax regime will Britain enjoy long-term sustainable economic growth," they added.
The signatories included Bob Rowthorn, of Cambridge University, and two former members of the Bank of England's monetary policy committee, DeAnne Julius and Sushil Wadhwani.
Communities Secretary Eric Pickles backed their call.
"I do think it should be got rid of -- forgive me for using this phrase -- when the time is right," he told BBC Radio 4.
"There is a strong and reasonable case for saying come on, this isn't actually contributing very much. On balance it's probably doing more damage than it is doing good."
The 50 pence rate was introduced by the former Labour government in April 2010 on annual taxable incomes above 150,000 pounds, which the Treasury hoped would eventually raise 2.7 billion pounds a year.
A figure of 150,000 pounds is more than five times average earnings and only the top 1 percent of the population earn that much.
"It is often portrayed as a justified tax on the rich but the economic damage it causes means that it is against the interests even of ordinary workers who don't pay it," the economists wrote.
The Treasury said that Osborne regarded the tax as a "temporary measure" and had asked revenue officials to analyse how much it raised.
"The Government is committed to a competitive tax system, but in reducing the deficit, we have always been clear that those with the broadest shoulders should carry the greatest burden," a Treasury spokesman said.

Anchor Bay U.K. Inks Deal With British Production Banner Richwater Films
The Starz-owned distributor and the fast-growing maker of British gangster films will co-produce a minimum of four movies a year.
LONDON – Anchor Bay Entertainment U.K., the Britain-based, Starz-owned distributor, has signed a co-production deal with Jonathan Sothcott's indie production banner Richwater Films. The two companies will develop, finance and produce a minimum of four movies per year.
The deal marks one of the freshest investments in U.K. production by a U.S. distributor in recent years.
Anchor Bay U.K. director of acquisitions Rod Smith described the partnership with Richwater Films as "an exciting new chapter in Anchor Bay U.K.'s growth and development."
The deal cements an already extant relationship between Anchor and Richwater that saw the distributor take U.K. and Australian rights to Stephen Reynolds' Vendetta, starring Danny Dyer.
Under the new pact, the pair will unite to produce and distribute London revenge thriller We Still Kill the Old Way, co-written by Gary Lawrence and Green Street Hooligans scribe Dougie Brimson.
The script revolves around a group of ageing London gangsters going on a vigilante killing spree when one of their number is murdered by a street gang.
Shooting is due to commence in January 2014.
Richwater CEO Sothcott said the deal marked a "genuine watershed moment in British film production -- an American distributor committing to such a big creative slate of independent British films."
Anchor Bay Entertainment will retain U.K. distribution rights as part of the deal, and the producers will appoint a sales agent to handle the rest of the world.
Richwater's Nick Aldrich said the stated aim is to make the banner into an out-and-out commercial British filmmaker.
"Even as we diversify the business into publishing, soundtracks and digital content, we have never forgotten that our core trade is DVD product. And as the market continues to flourish, we are in a very exciting and unique position," Aldrich said.
The deal is not exclusive for Richwater, as it is shortly to begin shooting gangster epic Top Dog for Universal Pictures U.K.
Richwater's first movie, Vendetta, marks the return of cult British actor Dyer to the big screen and also stars Vincent Regan and Ricci Harnett, while its second film, London hitman thriller Assassin, pairs Dyer with former Spandau Ballet bandmembers Gary and Martin Kemp in their first joint big-screen outing since cult classic The Krays.
Both pictures are being distributed in the U.K. by Anchor Bay Entertainment in deals struck before the pact.

Students at New York Institute of Technology (NYIT), in collaboration with the Hostos Dream Project, are designing a sustainable model for school buildings in underserved school communities in the Dominican Republic.
The Hostos Dream Project, a non-profit organization that focuses on improving the quality of education and environmental conservation within the Dominican Republic, is developing a new paradigm for primary and secondary education in the country. Students in NYIT's School of Architecture and Design, under the guidance of Michele Bertomen, associate professor of architecture, are responsible for completing a site plan and prototype design for the first school being developed. Students will implement the design in collaboration with architects in the Dominican Republic.
"With this project and others, NYIT's School of Architecture and Design encourages the formation of student-led multidisciplinary teams to implement significant and sustainable works of architecture," said Bertomen. "These endeavors give our students the confidence in their education as they participate in the creation of a better world."
The students currently involved in this initiative from the School of Architecture and Design are John Min, Eunjee Park, Mahesh Rana, Giovanni Avanzi, Brian Kerbeykian, Stephanie Susanto, Ben Constabile, Christine Alaimo, Lena Savigne, Tony Grullon, Leisdania Reyes, Maureen Tua, Dyana Berthaud, and Adele Schachner. Students from the School of Engineering and Computing Sciences are welcome to participate.
The goal of the Hostos Dream Project is to develop a successful, sustainable school model that can be built in underserved school communities within the Dominican Republic and can also be replicated in other parts of the world.

Conn's, Inc., a specialty retailer of home appliances, consumer electronics, computers, and lawn and garden products, announced record results for the first quarter ended April 30, 2005.
Net income for the first quarter increased 26.1 percent to U.S. $9.8 million compared to $7.8 million for the first quarter of last year. Diluted earnings per share available for common stockholders were $0.41 compared with $0.33 for the first quarter of last year. Total revenues for the quarter ended April 30, 2005 increased 17.3 percent to $158.2 million compared with $134.9 million for the quarter ended April 30, 2004. This increase in revenue included net sales increases of $20.4 million, or 17.2 percent, and increases from "Finance charges and other" of $2.9 million, or 17.7 percent. Same store sales (revenues earned in stores operated for the entirety of both periods) increased 7.3 percent for the first quarter of fiscal 2006.
During the first quarter, the company continued its expansion into the Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex with the opening of one additional store, bringing the store count in this market to nine as of April 30, 2005. This new store also brings the company's total store count to 51. Three additional stores are under construction by the company in the Dallas/Fort Worth market and other stores are in various stages of development in other locations. By the end of January 2006, the company expects to operate approximately 56 to 58 stores.
"Our continuing focus on improving execution in merchandising, store operations, logistics, training and credit resulted in satisfying results during the first quarter. We are certainly pleased with our same store sales growth, as well as the contribution to total sales from our new stores," said Thomas J. Frank, Conn's chairman and CEO. "Our new store openings are on schedule and we are confident in our strategy of controlled, profitable growth."
The Company continues to believe its previously issued guidance for the year ending January 31, 2006 of earnings per diluted share of approximately $1.40 to $1.46 will be achievable. The estimate of earnings per diluted share is calculated in accordance with current generally accepted accounting principles. Comparable store sales increases are projected in the low to mid single digit range.

As an attorney specializing in Elder Law & Estate planning in Friendswood, Texas I often find that adult children have no idea of the services available to them in our community & have frequently referred them to Apostle Home Health. I've never gotten any negative feedback & the fact that the care (in the home) doesn't "cost" anything has always put a smile on my clients faces. I'm always looking for avenues to help & have never been let down by the care provided by this Agency. I would highly recommend giving them a call.
OMG! I am very happy with the care provided to my Great Aunt and want everyone to know....if you have any doubt about what to do when you are worried about YOUR Mom, or Aunt or Uncle or Dad (and you have to work, like I do) then call them!! Ask for Rebecca to see your Mom, she's so sweet and takes her time. Brandy is a super sweet Nurse and our Therapist was Mandy (a guy) and he got my Mom up and walking after the surgery when she said she would not! He took so much time with her she fell in love with him! lol...

National Western Stock Show 2012: Talk of changes has some ranchers riled
Those who exhibit livestock at the event respect the tradition, but also see the need for change — and possibly a new home.

The ranchers who come to Denver's annual National Western Stock Show to showcase their animals are torn about proposals to move the event from its historic location.
"It's a huge thing to talk about moving it," said Bill Hammerich, CEO of the Colorado Livestock Association, based in Greeley.
"Taking an institution like the National Western Stock Show, which occurs every January, and relocating it? The issues related to that move are more than I can get my head and arms around."
Ranchers who have brought animals to the show, first held in January 1906, consider it a prime opportunity to showcase their breeding livestock and the genetic lines available for sale. Animals that net championship ribbons can boost the stature of a ranch, as well as the sale price of animals sold at the show and at private sales throughout the year, they say.
"The facilities are old, but that's the uniqueness of the National Western Stock Show," said Scott Butcher, the manager of the Diamond Tail Ranch LLC.
Butcher has brought bison from the ranch in north-central Colorado, 45 miles southwest of Laramie, Wyo., for 12 years. The ranch also brings about 130 animals into the old stockyards every February for a private sale to other bison ranchers.
"I'm not overly excited about the move," Butcher said. "It almost feels like the ranching industry, the stockyards, that we are having to apologize for our heritage and they're trying to get us to move out of the area."
Show officials have said for years that the National Western needs to move out of its current facilities near Interstate 70 and Brighton Boulevard, into new buildings at a larger site, in order to compete with other stock shows nationally.

Let's face it, tools for backing up your data have become ubiquitous. Everyone can do it. It provides peace of mind, especially for small businesses (think law or a doctor's office) who don't have IT pros on staff. "All my data is backed up somewhere so if something bad happens, I'm covered." Unfortunately backup is only a piece of the data protection puzzle. How do you get the backed up data back into production if something goes wrong? How long will it take to get up and running again? And the killer question: How will it impact my small business if it takes a long time to recover? Recovery is just as important as backup, and probably MORE important.
Backup is the first line of defense, and if you're like most organizations, you do some kind of backup daily, weekly, and monthly. To get the most out of your infrastructure and IT staff, you want to spend as little time and effort as possible on backup, but still be ready to restore fast.
Imagine you're running IT for a major retail chain and you need to pick the best storage solution to be deployed at every branch office across the country. What would be on your requirements list? It would have to be easy to deploy and manage – gradually rolling out across every location. It would definitely have to perform well. Ideally, application downtime would be as close to zero as possible. If something went wrong, I would have to be 100% positive I did not lose any customer data. I would want a solution with as small a hardware footprint as possible to help minimize cost. Speaking of cost, let's keep that as low as possible. Good luck finding all that with a traditional storage solution.
An exceptional desktop virtualization end-user experience is essential to the success of such projects, and is more challenging than ever before. The VSPEX reference architecture using EMC XtremIO and Brocade networking is designed to eliminate planning and configuration burdens and deliver in a big way on both IT and end-user requirements.
We know the benefits that cloud storage can offer organizations - flexibility, agility, and elasticity more efficiently at lower costs. And that's really just the start. Once you factor in the potential to address business continuity and productivity concerns with instant backup, archive, and disaster recovery plans, it's turning into a no brainer.
I'm a huge proponent of HTML 5 – it's sleek, responsive, and meant for the modern, mobile world. It's not surprising that more and more consumer-based websites have made the transition, especially with the explosion in mobile device usage in the recent years. The one area where I would love to see more adoption though is in IT, specifically around infrastructure management.
Many organizations are so intent on identifying new malware that they are failing to address or in some cases even recognize advanced evasion techniques (AETs) that can enable malware to circumvent their security defenses. AETs pose a great threat because most security solutions can't detect, much less stop them. Security professionals and executive managers need to wake up to this real and growing threat.
As usual ESG had a strong analyst representation at this year's EMC World, held last week in Las Vegas. Watch this 6 minute video blog, to get a flavor of the event and to hear the key "takeaways" and initial high level insights from a broad spectrum of ESG experts – on the storage 'beat,' there's Terri McClure and myself, for data protection there is Jason Buffington, and you can also see and hear from Kevin Rhone (channels/partners) and Kerry Dolan (ESG Lab).
Virtual desktop environments can present one of the most challenging workloads an infrastructure must deal with. Random, shifting I/O and bottlenecks in the storage domain will have a significant impact on performance. Delivering an exceptional user experience is essential to the success of desktop virtualization deployments because users are becoming conditioned to the performance of flash drives in their business and personal computers. Users demand performance equal to or better than what they already have.
So what do we know about flash? It used to be really expensive. It had limited implementation options in IT environments. Oh, let's not forget the screaming performance you can expect when it's implemented correctly.
Violin has their all-flash storage array. Microsoft has their latest OS, Windows Server 2012 R2, loaded with storage features like Storage Spaces, SMB, and SMB Direct. It's quite natural for the two to come together, right? RIGHT! In a recent announcement, the two companies have teamed up to jointly develop a new solution called the Windows Flash Array, which combines the best of both worlds: Violin storage hardware and Microsoft storage software.
I've been fortunate in my role as an ESG Lab Analyst in that I've been able to be hands-on with a mix of companies that range from new, emerging startups to mature, proven companies. Specifically in the "Big Data" space, the exposure to the new products and technology has been just enough that I really want to wrap my head around everything there is to know. My ultimate goal at a high-level is to provide clarity where it's needed - clarity in a cloudy (pun intended), confusing big data ecosystem. What do I need to fix my problem? Who does what? How do they do it? And the big question for me right now: Who really does what they say they do?
How many work-related documents, images, and videos do you interact with on a daily basis? Before you answer, include the number of e-mails you send and receive. Tens? Hundreds? Maybe thousands? And that's just you.
Since leaving EMC and becoming part of the ESG team, I have been exposed to various VCE products and most recently we tested the Vblock Specialized Systems for High Performance Databases. My first thought was "Wow, VCE has come a long way."
This past April, I travelled to Sin City (for the first time in my life) to attend the Microsoft Management Summit (MMS). Being my first trip to Vegas I wasn't quite sure what to expect and of course I was not let down by the pure extravagance of everything. People, food, entertainment, gambling…I swear this place was designed by a group of people with the worst forms of ADHD. The fortunate (or unfortunate, depending on how you look at it) part was that I was there for a tech conference, so my experience was a little less overwhelming.
Using flash to accelerate virtual desktops is a hot topic, but at what cost? ESG Lab is testing Fusion ioVDI and is seeing some pretty exciting results. So if you want to hear how to run thousands of FAST desktops without breaking the bank, read on!
So you're going to fix all your company's virtualization woes with your new architecture. You're going to be the IT hero. The parts for the new solution show up on your loading dock and you start putting the pieces together, only to find out that the NIC cards you ordered don't support a required protocol. Or worse yet, the expensive network gear you already ordered is missing a critical feature your users depend on. You persevere, scaling back your design, and exchanging components. It never seems to be an even exchange, but at least you are still within budget.
A lot of organizations think the cloud can help them save money and improve IT service delivery. And they're right—for many, it can transform operations. But often the biggest questions are "How the heck do I get there? Where do I begin? What will it actually get me?"
A good place to start answering those questions is to see what companies with successful clouds have done. ESG has been following EMC on its cloud voyage since 2004, and we recently completed our IT Audit on the topic. While the first two were more about the journey, this last one focused on their achievements—which are, quite frankly, stunning.
I recently completed my first phase of Server 2012 testing focused primarily on the new and improved storage and networking features. More specifically, I played with Storage Spaces, the Server Message Block (SMB) 3.0 protocol, Deduplication (yes, it's part of the OS now), Chkdsk, and Offloaded Data Transfer (ODX).
Your pager goes off and wakes you at 4:00 AM to let you know that the power is back on at the office, and you think, "Oh Great." You look out the window and see the ground covered with snow as you fire up the home computer to see if you can send an e-mail - nothing. The drive to the office is quicker than usual, because there's no traffic. It's dark as you walk down the hall past the empty cubes, swipe your security card past the reader and open the big steel door. Ah, the familiar sound of cooling fans as you flip on the lights and walk to one of the many computer racks in the room. You jiggle the mouse in front of the console, and it lights up with a blue screen and a half booted system. The only option is to hit the power button.

I'm currently tackling the Burda Talea coat, but the pattern for the lining is not provided (except for the sleeves).
I'm trying to decide whether I should just line the sleeves, as per the Burda instructions, OR draft my own lining pattern.
I've never drafted or sewn a coat lining before. Does anyone have suggestions for a good tutorial on this for a first-timer?
Many thanks in advance for your advice!
Jan 6, 2014, 11.05 AMby katensew
Lining the sleeves certainly makes the coat easier to get on ! It will also help to prevent "bagging" at the elbow.
Jan 6, 2014, 12.24 PMby liaifen
Is it advisable to only line the sleeves, as per the instructions? Or should I really attempt to line the whole coat?
Jan 6, 2014, 01.00 PMby PennyMac
You're going to be putting a lot of work into that coat and you will want a result that you are completely happy with. Not only does a lining improve the look and wear of a garment but if there are small imperfections on the inside (and speaking just for my own work, there usually are!) they are hidden by a lining.
I've got a rain coat I made years ago. I love the outside of it but every time I wear it I wish I'd extended the half lining (just sleeves and shoulders) to be a full lining (I'm too lazy to go back and change it now).
So in my opinion, as soon as you ask yourself the question 'should I line it?' you know the answer: 'yes'. If you type "how to draft a lining pattern" into Google you'll find plenty of advice. Good luck!

Jan 6, 2014, 05.26 PMby Jonathan Selig
Personally, if you are able to, line it.
If I were really stuck, I'd talk to a local tailor/seamstress. Good ones are a fount of knowledge, and in my experience, don't mind giving someone 5 minutes of advice. I had a wool coat that I bought second hand, it was too big for me through the body, and the seamstress was invaluable in telling me about the overall construction, materials and if it was worth while taking in. In the end we didn't because the alterations were extensive, and it would have been a shame to ruin such a well made coat.
Jan 6, 2014, 08.48 PMby clothingengineer
I would line the whole coat.
When I made my Burda trench I drafted a coat lining pattern for the first time using Tailoring: The Classic Guide to Sewing the Perfect Jacket as my reference. I highly recommend this book; it is easy to understand, inexpensive, and covers traditional as well as fusible construction.
Jan 7, 2014, 03.19 AMby liaifen
Thanks for this recommendation! I've been surfing the web, and have found a handful of tutorials. But I haven't felt confident that I knew how to pick the right one to follow. I will give this one a try!
Jan 7, 2014, 03.22 AMby liaifen
Thank you so much, everyone, for your advice. I'm going to go for it, and draft my first coat lining!! Woohoo!
Jan 16, 2014, 10.18 AMby motera
Another option, easier, would be to interline the unlined pieces . Essentially taking the fashion fabric and the lining fabric, cutting them the same , putting them together and treating as one piece of fabric, then finishing the seams nicely with a hong kong finish. This way, you cover the imperfections and scratchiness of the wool, help the fabric drape better, and have a very professional finished inside to the coat.
I'm not a novice seamstress and only need to consult the instructions if it's something…

Lesbian sister of Australia's anti-equal marriage Prime Minister proposes to partner
Post your comment
Comments on this article are now closed.
Reader comments
Good for her! A lot of Aussies will identify far more with her than with her anti-gay brother.
It will be interesting to see if her brother attends the wedding. How will he square that with his opposition to legalising it? A bit hypocritical in some ways. We shall see. I'm always perplexed why someone who is opposed to same-sex marriage claims that it isn't homophobic because they have gay friends or family members, a lame excuse either way, or that they believe in other rights for LGBT people. It just doesn't add up.
If the three major Abrahamic cults tomorrow sanctioned SSM, would the opposition suddenly have an epiphany and conform?
Comments from Eddy and Robert in S. Kensington are close to my heart ! Thanks a lot-
It takes a special kind of stubborn ignorance and blind hatred to deprive your own sister of the right to marry.

The drive is only about 1 1/2 - 2 hours with just one town for stopping, food, etc. but nice turnoffs for hikes. We preferred the High Road to Taos that goes from Santa Fe via Trunchas and Chimayo to Taos.
Since we were staying in Angel Fire, it was an easy drive for us. We set out looking for a ghost town that we never found, not knowing we were on the Enchanted Circle Drive. Each small town has its points of pride. We were there in late October, so many of the leaves had already changed and fallen. I...
We just happened upon the drive leaving the hot springs. Breath taking scenery, vista and valleys. what a unexpected treat
Disappointing drive. My wife renamed it boring circle. Some of the mountain passes were passable if you'll pardon the pun but we felt it was a waste of cheap petrol.
We loved the Vietnam Memorial in Angel Fire, spent time in Red River and the Rio Grande Del Norte National Monument. Ended our day at the Rio Grande Gorge Bridge. When finishing up this trip, perfect place for lunch Taos Mesa Brewery just a few miles from the Bridge - OUTSTANDING Trip.
Worth the extra drive. About 10 miles outside of Taos in the country. Looks like a mini Grand Canyon.
Drive across the bridge to the picnic area, it is a better place for good view of the bridge with photo.
Scenery was stunning. Wheeler Peak was snow covered, and the aspens were in their full glory. Amazing fall pageantry everywhere! This is a beautiful day trip from Taos any time, but fall really is spectacular. Make sure you bring your camera.
This looks like it would be a beautiful drive any time, but we were able to drive it at the peak of the fall colors. It was stunning with the aspens and cottonwoods mixed in among the evergreens. Many of the forest service campgrounds were closed for camping but its worth parking at one or more and walking back into...
The aspens turn golden the first couple of weeks in October. The slightest breeze creates a golden blizzard. I prefer going north from Taos through Questa (visit the Wild Rivers Rec Area a little north of Questa). Stop in Red River for a meal then head east then south to the Vietnam Veteran's Memorial State Park in Angel Fire. After...

I love design but unfortunately was pushed into sciences at an early age and now I want to correct that mistake!! I am really interested in taking a fashion design course of some sort to enhance my sewing and design skills. I live in Colorado and have checked out the schools here, but they all have bad reviews or are totally overpriced. Does anyone know of a good online course I could take that wouldn't break the bank?!
Any ideas would be much appreciated!

It might sound weird, but YouTube videos are a great start. I used them to learn how to draft my own bodice patterns very successfully. It's a good tool as you practice on your own, until you find a school program that suits you.
A great tip I learned from a video: draft your pattern on graphing paper. Just tape the sheets together until they form one large piece of graph paper. The grid lines really help to draft an accurate pattern.
Jan 24, 2012, 04.26 PMby sarahmckee85
Thanks for the link Patti it is very useful. Good idea about the graph paper, I never thought about that before usually end up sticking regular paper together. Fantastic tip! I also use youtube a lot to find out how to do certain techniques and wehn I get stuck on a pattern. Some great videos on there.
