Coty announced on Monday that it was withdrawing its $10.7bn bid on Avon after two months of pursuit. In a letter to Avon's board, Coty chairman Bart Becht said "While we have waited patiently, Avon's Board has now had more than two months to consider whether to engage in discussions and permit us to conduct due diligence ... I find it remarkable that since we made our revised proposal, and despite repeated requests over the last 24 hours, no one from Avon's Board or management has been willing to speak with us ... your total lack of engagement with us leads us to believe that you remain reluctant to explore a friendly, negotiated combination on a reasonable timetable. Two months is enough. Consequently, as our deadline to begin discussions expired today, our proposal is withdrawn".

Gebrüder Weiss celebrates 20 years of success in Slovakia
This becomes particularly clear when looking at the continued expansion in the region: early September 2013, two additional logistics buildings with a total area of 4,600 m² were put into operation at the existing logistics terminal in Senec, near Bratislava. Comprehensive video monitoring, modern equipment and highly trained employees ensure the highest quality and safety standards at the entire site. "The logistics buildings with 7,000 additional pallet spaces ideally complement the existing site in Senec," says Markus Jelleschitz, Country Manager at GW Slovakia. "This way, we will be able to handle the constantly increasing number of orders of our customers in the quality that people have come to expect." The investment volume for the expansion totals over two million euros.
Success Story in Slovakia
With the opening of an own branch in Bratislava in 1993, Gebrüder Weiss took its first steps into Slovakia. Shortly thereafter, the first international groupage freight transports were started in the European network of the Austrian transport and logistics provider. Direct transports to Germany and Italy were also organized. Moreover, Gebrüder Weiss established additional branches in Žilina and Košice. In 2005, a new terminal in Senec commenced operation. With an investment of approximately 10 million euros, an own terminal was built in Senec only a few years later and opened in 2010. Today, more than 150 employees work at Gebrüder Weiss in Slovakia. Every year, more than 400,000 consignments are handles and a turnover of around 27 million euros generated.

You eyed Fluttershy's tight pussy and curvy flank, drooling with pleasure, face flushed with arousal. With your cock throbbing like no other, you immediately place your hands and grab Fluttershy's hind legs and without hesitation or care, you ram your raging boner into her nice, delicate vagina. She lets out a small welp as you started going in and out slowly, but picked up the pace and starting ramming her with all your strength. Her sweet, tender pussy lips felt so good on your hard dick that it made her insides feel all the more satisfying. You love every second of it. Her velvety inner walls felt like heaven and you let out a few small moans to signify the immense pleasure you were receiving off of the hotness that was Fluttershy. You then suddenly pulled out, your hard cock still excited after the nice thrashing it gave to the yellow pegasus. Flipping Fluttershy on her back and without hesitation or care, you plunged deep inside her again, Fluttershy's whelps and moans never ceasing. Your cock shoved into her hard, you felt your climax approaching as you braced for the real pleasure. After a few minutes of continuous ramming and pounding her velvety vagina, you finally let it all out as you ejaculated hot seed deep inside her, filling her up with each blast of semen you could let out, all with Fluttershy letting out a loving moan from the hot session just enacted.

"Where have you been Dog?"
The IT Dog here again, back from summer sabbatical. Well, it was more like an "election" sabbatical since I spent the last six months working on the campaign to elect Barkington T. Howl, III as President of United Dogs of America (UDA). "Bark," as his frat brothers call him, turned out to be a little too high-brow and out of touch with the rank-and-file UDA constituency. He lost in a landslide. Anyway, I am now back at my day job, talking about SSDs in the IT marketplace. Did you miss me?
Back to Our Regularly Scheduled Blog Topic
So what is the first thing to write about since coming back? How about looking at a trend in the RAID marketplace – offering RAID controller cards sold with proprietary SSD caching software designed to boost performance over traditional RAID offerings.
SSD Caching RAID Controller Cards
Redundant Array of Independent Disks or RAIDs, as they are affectionately known, have been around for many years. They are a vital component in many IT installations offering data redundancy and performance improvements over standard disk array. With the introduction of SSDs and SSD caching, many RAID controller card manufactures have updated their product offering to include the ability to run SSD caching algorithms on the RAID controller card itself. Examples of this in the market place include LSI MegaRAID controller card with CacheCade SSD caching software and Adaptec Series 7 controller cards with maxCache SSD caching software. The basic idea here is to buy the controller card from a particular vendor and use the SSD caching software they offer that runs only on their controller card.
Show Me The Money
Ok, so I understand the idea. Let's see if we can figure out if this is the right way to do SSD caching. I am going to talk about LSI's solution, not because "LSI" is easier to type than "Adaptec", but because there happen to be some independent test results published on the web by Demartek for LSI MegaRAID with CacheCade. I am going to try and decipher just what the results are telling me. You can click on the link to read the entire report which documents test set-up etc. I am just going to discuss one chart presented to see what the fuss is about.
Figure 1 below is from page 8 of the report. It shows throughput in Megabits per second for a 90 minute web server test for the baseline system with no SSD caching and for the same system with SSD caching using one or two Intel X25-E 32GB SLC SSDs. The chart shows the baseline system without SSD caching maxed out at about 58 Mbps and that using one SSD and SSD caching, the performance improved to approximately 211 Mbps. Pretty nice. 3.6X improvement. And, with 2 SSDs for caching the throughput improved to 416 Mbps. 7.1X improvement! Excellent.
But let me dig into this a little more. The first thing I am trying to understand is just how they could get only 58 Mbps out of the baseline system. Remember now this is MegaBITS per second, not MegaBYTES per second. I am not a RAID controller guru, but I would have expected the baseline performance to be greater than 7.25 Mbytes/s. A quick internet search of RAID performance led me to this ZDNet page which listed a test RAID performance in MegaBYTES/s ranging from 64 to 257. So the baseline figure for the LSI test is suspect and therefore 3.6X or 7.1X improvement of really bad performance is not that impressive. But, if we ignore ___X improvement and just look at the data – 211 Mbits/sec (that's 26 Mbytes/sec to you and me) is nothing to be too excited about.
Figure 1. LSI MegaRAID with CaceCade Demartek Throughput. Source: http://www.demartek.com/Reports_Free/Demartek_LSI_CacheCade_Performance_...
Velobit SSD Caching Software Results
So, I was trying to come up with an apples-to-apples comparison for the RAID SSD caching test data shown above but unfortunately I don't have data which exactly duplicates the LSI test. However, Demartek performed system testing using Velobit HyperCache SSD caching software under different conditions which can be used to provide some general comparison observations.
Figure 2. below is taken from page 12 the Velobit Demartek report. The chart title is confusing: "Average MBPS – Linux without RD2". When translated to English, the title means: Average MegaBYTES/s of a Linux based system running the vdbench workload test. The 'without RD2' part of the title means that there is a second chart in the report with a test called 'RD2' (mostly read operations test) whose results (more than 3200 Mbytes/s) cause the other test results shown in the first graph on P12 to be compressed and difficult to read. So the RD2 test results are removed for this graph (see the report) to zoom in on RD1, RD3 and RD4 results. Well, that was a lot to explain for a chart title, sorry about that.
Anyway, several takeaways (don't you just hate that word) from this data:
1. The baseline performance for each test ranged from approx. 20-35 Mbytes/s (Mbytes!). Much higher than the baseline for the LSI tests (7.25 Mbytes/s).
2. The Velobit Hypercache performance ranged from 200 to 275 Mbytes/s (that is 1600 - 2200 Mbits/s to keep the same units as the LSI results)
3. These tests results also show testing results of FlashSoft SSD caching software because FlashSoft was available at Demartek for comparison purposes. By the way, FlashSoft outperforms the LSI CacheCade software significantly also.
Figure 2. Velobit HyperCache SSD Caching Software Demartek Test Results. Source: http://www.velobit.com/Portals/106427/docs/demartek_velobit_ssd_caching_...
This was a long and winding road to try to make a simple point. RAID systems and SSD caching are two independent components within your IT system. If you have to go with a RAID solution for redundancy reasons, don't get lured into the illusion that you can solve two problems with one product: you do need to have your RAID solution also be your SSD caching solution. It may seem easy to combine RAID and SSD caching for you, but if you try to solve two independent 'problems' with one product, you may not be getting the best performance for either problem. SSD caching enabled RAID controller cards:
- tend to be more expensive than standard RAID controller cards
- limit your SSD caching software solutions to software compatible with that card (vendor lock-in)
- do not perform as well as other SSD caching options
The benefit of using RAID based SSD caching is the software runs on the RAID card and does not consume any server CPU/memory resources. However, the benefits don't seem to be worth the cost and performance hit you take by using this solution.

Exploring the World through Song
Dr. Rebecca Lister, associate professor of music, and Cassondra "Cassie" Diaz '14, music education and vocal performance double major, spent nearly three weeks last summer in Asunción, Paraguay, with support from an Arnold Grant for Experiential Learning. The trip was an opportunity for Lister to continue her ongoing recital collaboration with internationally known Paraguayan guitarist Berta Rojas, while Diaz took advantage of an opportunity for intensive instruction in vocal pedagogy while experiencing another culture.
Lister had first visited Paraguay in 2012, and was eager to return: "I wanted to experience the students' excitement in learning again, and to expand their knowledge of songs in English," she says. "Their facilities and environment are much less advanced than those we have at LVC, but these students clearly demonstrated their passion to achieve despite their circumstances. Their warmth, expressions of appreciation, musical intensity, and overall generosity continue to humble and inspire me to be a better teacher."
Lister was also enthusiastic about the opportunities the experience presented to Diaz. "Basically, it was like a one-on-one seminar for Cassie," she says. "She worked with three students on her own, and I observed her working with them and made suggestions as a way of offering her immediate feedback." Diaz also developed detailed written lesson plans and a journal reflecting on her teaching strategies. She also had the opportunity to observe other voice teachers at two universities in Asunción—the Catholic University and the National Conservatory—and to perform a recital with Lister at the Municipal Theater, with orchestral accompaniment.
"This project was valuable for Cassie because it was both performance-based and scholarly based," Lister explains. "As a future high school music teacher, she'll need to work with the voices of her young students every day. She'll need to analyze specific aspects of technique and create approaches that will enhance her students' individual vocal technique. The ability to analyze and fix vocal problems is absolutely crucial to any choral conductor, and with this project, Cassie progressed well on her way to developing a critical ear."
"What drew me to the project was Dr. Lister's excitement and enthusiasm," Diaz says. "I have a love for Hispanic people, and teaching in a foreign country is an opportunity you just can't pass up!" Diaz noted that her fluent Spanish came in handy in a country where the majority of people speak no English.
But for Diaz, the experience was far more than academic. "I think it's so important to give to those who are less fortunate than I am," she says. "I've been blessed with an incredibly valuable education, and it's my duty and my honor to give back to students who simply don't have access to the resources that I've had all of my life. These experiences build perspective, understanding, and hopefully, compassion. That's what Paraguay offered me, and I believe every privileged American student should give herself a chance to see how an international experience can open her eyes to something bigger."
Lister hopes the collaboration will continue to be fruitful both for LVC and for the Paraguayan students. "In a way, Cassie and I were ambassadors for LVC, demonstrating both the technique and artistry we offer here in our department," she says. "I'd very much like to create an opportunity for Paraguayan students to attend LVC, whether as members of a semester-exchange program or even as undergraduates. It would be a fascinating possibility and a great way to foster diversity on campus."

Real Time Insight
With another earnings season pretty much over, investors have begun to assess the winners and losers for Q1 results. One surprising winner has been financials, as this segment has seen strong year-over-year growth on the earnings front, and solid growth in terms of revenues as well.
However, every company in the space hasn't been so lucky, as a few have seen decidedly lackluster reports. One bellwether that has definitely fallen into this category is Bank of America (BAC - Analyst Report).
The company barely met sales estimates for the past quarter, but missed earnings by three cents a share, with profits of just 20 cents per share. Immediately following the report, shares fell about 5%, though the company has easily rebounded and is back at 52 week highs once more.
Yet while shares of BAC may have been able to shrug off the weak earnings report in relatively short order, questions remain for the company in the near term. Other corners of the financial world are starting to take leadership in the space, while the earnings estimate picture isn't exactly favorable at this point in time.
Still, BAC has proven to be quite resilient as of late and there are some positive trends appearing in key corners of the bank's operations. These include strong mortgage originations, setting aside less for bad loans, and better news from their Merrill Lynch division.
In other words, BAC's outlook is quite mixed and the company could go either way in the near term. But what do you think, are you a buyer or seller of BAC at these levels?
Reasons to Buy:
- The Banks-Major Regional industry is quite strong from a Zacks Industry Rank perspective. Currently, the space is in the top third of all industries, suggesting that it is in good company.
- Earnings growth (year-over-year) for the full year period is quite impressive (triple digits), so there is definitely reason to believe that BAC is back on track.
- Despite this projected earnings growth, the PEG is still quite good coming in below 0.9. This is extremely favorable when compared to the broad industry which has a PEG of 1.27.
Reasons to Sell:
- Year-over-year sales growth is expected to be more or less flat. It may be hard to grow earnings at a tremendous pace without some more top line growth.
- The earnings estimate picture isn't exactly favorable, either in the short or long term. For the current year, in the past 30 days, 12 estimates have gone down while only 2 have gone up.
- The stock has a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) in a top industry. This means that there are other, higher ranked options in the same space that could be better choices such as (JPM - Analyst Report) or (FITB - Analyst Report).
So what do you think; will BAC continue to rebound, or is the company approaching a top given some of the headwinds on the horizon?

There's no way around saying this, he's wearing a zoot suit in 2012. And yet, we're kind of into it—as much as one can be into a zoot suit in 2012. Even Mike stepped his style game up to match.

Film Review: Treevenge (short film) (2008)
 SYNOPSIS: After the relentless cruelties & indignities imposed upon them by humans, Christmas trees finally have had enough & strike back on a cold & frosty morning. REVIEW: A fairly well used concept in horror: take an ordinary object or creature and to turn it into an object to be feared. Horror fans are all probably familiar with stories involving the wreaking of revenge by frogs (FROGS), ants (THEM), spiders (ARACHIPHOBIA), and the like. … Continue reading
Frightful Japan: The Torn-Mouth Woman (Kuchisake Onna)
You're walking home at night on a deserted road when a woman in a surgical mask approaches. It's not such a strange thing, as many people in Japan wear masks when they're feeling under the weather or trying to prevent pollen-induced allergies. She stops. "Am I pretty?" she asks. She has long, shiny black hair and is wearing a beige coat cinched at the waist. "Yes," you say. And that is when she removes her … Continue reading

We should take a closer look at the concept of a Visio template. As you saw in a previous lesson, when you choose a template in Visio, you get a blank drawing page and a handful of shapes to the left of the page. But that's not all your choice brings you. With a template, you get other special tools to help you with your diagram. For example, when you choose an organization chart template, you get the following:
Also set automatically for you is the page orientation: to landscape, the typical orientation for organization charts.
Other templates provide other special tools and menus.


text: In this series about an ancient crater, its cause and the man who figured out its origins, Tennant shows her knack for enlivening science, for imbuing scientific questions with mystery and portent. Her lead has no human character, but it tantalizes with vivid action and a wealth of stunning detail. (It seems that crafting a compelling description of a two-mile-wide object hurtling toward earth should be easy; but not necessarily.) Tennant's protagonist is a compelling character on a quest. Even without him, Tennant could keep readers intrigued through the strength of her voice and the suspense she builds in pursuit of an intellectual mystery.
