In recent times, one of the most popular subjects related to the field of Business Intelligence (BI) has been In-memory BI technology. The subject gained popularity largely due to the success of QlikTech, provider of the in-memory-based QlikView BI product. Following QlikTech's lead, many other BI vendors have jumped on the in-memory "hype wagon," including the software giant, Microsoft, which has been aggressively marketing PowerPivot, their own in-memory database engine.
The increasing hype surrounding in-memory BI has caused BI consultants, analysts and even vendors to spew out endless articles, blog posts and white papers on the subject, many of which have also gone the extra mile to describe in-memory technology as the future of business intelligence, the death blow to the data warehouse and the swan song of OLAP technology. I find one of these in my inbox every couple of weeks.
Just so it is clear - the concept of in-memory business intelligence is not new. It has been around for many years. The only reason it became widely known recently is because it wasn't feasible before 64-bit computing became commonly available. Before 64-bit processors, the maximum amount of RAM a computer could utilize was barely 4GB, which is hardly enough to accommodate even the simplest of multi-user BI solutions. Only when 64-bit systems became cheap enough did it became possible to consider in-memory technology as a practical option for BI.
The success of QlikTech and the relentless activities of Microsoft's marketing machine have managed to confuse many in terms of what role in-memory technology plays in BI implementations. And that is why many of the articles out there, which are written by marketers or market analysts who are not proficient in the internal workings of database technology (and assume their readers aren't either), are usually filled with inaccuracies and, in many cases, pure nonsense.
The purpose of this article is to put both in-memory and disk-based BI technologies in perspective, explain the differences between them and finally lay out, in simple terms, why disk-based BI technology isn't on its way to extinction. Rather, disk-based BI technology is evolving into something that will significantly limit the use of in-memory technology in typical BI implementations.
But before we get to that, for the sake of those who are not very familiar with in-memory BI technology, here's a brief introduction to the topic.
Disk and RAM
Generally speaking, your computer has two types of data storage mechanisms – disk (often called a hard disk) and RAM (random access memory). The important differences between them (for this discussion) are outlined in the following table:
Most modern computers have 15-100 times more available disk storage than they do RAM. My laptop, for example, has 8GB of RAM and 300GB of available disk space. However, reading data from disk is much slower than reading the same data from RAM. This is one of the reasons why 1GB of RAM costs approximately 320 times that of 1GB of disk space.
Another important distinction is what happens to the data when the computer is powered down: data stored on disk is unaffected (which is why your saved documents are still there the next time you turn on your computer), but data residing in RAM is instantly lost. So, while you don't have to re-create your disk-stored Microsoft Word documents after a reboot, you do have to re-load the operating system, re-launch the word processor and reload your document. This is because applications and their internal data are partly, if not entirely, stored in RAM while they are running.
Disk-based Databases and In-memory Databases
Now that we have a general idea of what the basic differences between disk and RAM are, what are the differences between disk-based and in-memory databases? Well, all data is always kept on hard disks (so that they are saved even when the power goes down). When we talk about whether a database is disk-based or in-memory, we are talking about where the data resides while it is actively being queried by an application: with disk-based databases, the data is queried while stored on disk and with in-memory databases, the data being queried is first loaded into RAM.
Disk-based databases are engineered to efficiently query data residing on the hard drive. At a very basic level, these databases assume that the entire data cannot fit inside the relatively small amount of RAM available and therefore must have very efficient disk reads in order for queries to be returned within a reasonable time frame. The engineers of such databases have the benefit of unlimited storage, but must face the challenges of relying on relatively slow disk operations.
On the other hand, in-memory databases work under the opposite assumption that the data can, in fact, fit entirely inside the RAM. The engineers of in-memory databases benefit from utilizing the fastest storage system a computer has (RAM), but have much less of it at their disposal.
That is the fundamental trade-off in disk-based and in-memory technologies: faster reads and limited amounts of data versus slower reads and practically unlimited amounts of data. These are two critical considerations for business intelligence applications, as it is important both to have fast query response times and to have access to as much data as possible.
The Data Challenge
A business intelligence solution (almost) always has a single data store at its center. This data store is usually called a database, data warehouse, data mart or OLAP cube. This is where the data that can be queried by the BI application is stored.
The challenges in creating this data store using traditional disk-based technologies is what gave in-memory technology its 15 minutes (ok, maybe 30 minutes) of fame. Having the entire data model stored inside RAM allowed bypassing some of the challenges encountered by their disk-based counterparts, namely the issue of query response times or 'slow queries.'
Disk-based BI
When saying 'traditional disk-based' technologies, we typically mean relational database management systems (RDBMS) such as SQL Server, Oracle, MySQL and many others. It's true that having a BI solution perform well using these types of databases as their backbone is far more challenging than simply shoving the entire data model into RAM, where performance gains would be immediate due to the fact RAM is so much faster than disk.
It's commonly thought that relational databases are too slow for BI queries over data in (or close to) its raw form due to the fact they are disk-based. The truth is, however, that it's because of how they use the disk and how often they use it.
Relational databases were designed with transactional processing in mind. But having a database be able to support high-performance insertions and updates of transactions (i.e., rows in a table) as well as properly accommodating the types of queries typically executed in BI solutions (e.g., aggregating, grouping, joining) is impossible. These are two mutually-exclusive engineering goals, that is to say they require completely different architectures at the very core. You simply can't use the same approach to ideally achieve both.
In addition, the standard query language used to extract transactions from relational databases (SQL) is syntactically designed for the efficient fetching of rows, while rare are the cases in BI where you would need to scan or retrieve an entire row of data. It is nearly impossible to formulate an efficient BI query using SQL syntax.
So while relational databases are great as the backbone of operational applications such as CRM, ERP or Web sites, where transactions are frequently and simultaneously inserted, they are a poor choice for supporting analytic applications which usually involve simultaneous retrieval of partial rows along with heavy calculations.
In-memory BI
In-memory databases approach the querying problem by loading the entire dataset into RAM. In so doing, they remove the need to access the disk to run queries, thus gaining an immediate and substantial performance advantage (simply because scanning data in RAM is orders of magnitude faster than reading it from disk). Some of these databases introduce additional optimizations which further improve performance. Most of them also employ compression techniques to represent even more data in the same amount of RAM.
Regardless of what fancy footwork is used with an in-memory database, storing the entire dataset in RAM has a serious implication: the amount of data you can query with in-memory technology is limited by the amount of free RAM available, and there will always be much less available RAM than available disk space.
The bottom line is that this limited memory space means that the quality and effectiveness of your BI application will be hindered: the more historical data to which you have access and/or the more fields you can query, the better analysis, insight and, well, intelligence you can get.
You could add more and more RAM, but then the hardware you require becomes exponentially more expensive. The fact that 64-bit computers are cheap and can theoretically support unlimited amounts of RAM does not mean they actually do in practice. A standard desktop-class (read: cheap) computer with standard hardware physically supports up to 12GB of RAM today. If you need more, you can move on to a different class of computer which costs about twice as much and will allow you up to 64GB. Beyond 64GB, you can no longer use what is categorized as a personal computer but will require a full-blown server which brings you into very expensive computing territory.
It is also important to understand that the amount of RAM you need is not only affected by the amount of data you have, but also by the number of people simultaneously querying it. Having 5-10 people using the same in-memory BI application could easily double the amount of RAM required for intermediate calculations that need to be performed to generate the query results. A key success factor in most BI solutions is having a large number of users, so you need to tread carefully when considering in-memory technology for real-world BI. Otherwise, your hardware costs may spiral beyond what you are willing or able to spend (today, or in the future as your needs increase).
There are other implications to having your data model stored in memory, such as having to re-load it from disk to RAM every time the computer reboots and not being able to use the computer for anything other than the particular data model you're using because its RAM is all used up.
A Note about QlikView and PowerPivot In-memory Technologies
QlikTech is the most active in-memory BI player out there so their QlikView in-memory technology is worth addressing in its own right. It has been repeatedly described as "unique, patented associative technology" but, in fact, there is nothing "associative" about QlikView's in-memory technology. QlikView uses a simple tabular data model, stored entirely in-memory, with basic token-based compression applied to it. In QlikView's case, the word associative relates to the functionality of its user interface, not how the data model is physically stored. Associative databases are a completely different beast and have nothing in common with QlikView's technology.
PowerPivot uses a similar concept, but is engineered somewhat differently due to the fact it's meant to be used largely within Excel. In this respect, PowerPivot relies on a columnar approach to storage that is better suited for the types of calculations conducted in Excel 2010, as well as for compression. Quality of compression is a significant differentiator between in-memory technologies as better compression means that you can store more data in the same amount RAM (i.e., more data is available for users to query). In its current version, however, PowerPivot is still very limited in the amounts of data it supports and requires a ridiculous amount of RAM.
The Present and Future Technologies
The destiny of BI lies in technologies that leverage the respective benefits of both disk-based and in-memory technologies to deliver fast query responses and extensive multi-user access without monstrous hardware requirements. Obviously, these technologies cannot be based on relational databases, but they must also not be designed to assume a massive amount of RAM, which is a very scarce resource.
These types of technologies are not theoretical anymore and are already utilized by businesses worldwide. Some are designed to distribute different portions of complex queries across multiple cheaper computers (this is a good option for cloud-based BI systems) and some are designed to take advantage of 21st-century hardware (multi-core architectures, upgraded CPU cache sizes, etc.) to extract more juice from off-the-shelf computers.
A Final Note: ElastiCube Technology
The technology developed by the company I co-founded, SiSense, belongs to the latter category. That is, SiSense utilizes technology which combines the best of disk-based and in-memory solutions, essentially eliminating the downsides of each. SiSense's BI product, Prism, enables a standard PC to deliver a much wider variety of BI solutions, even when very large amounts of data, large numbers of users and/or large numbers of data sources are involved, as is the case in typical BI projects.
When we began our research at SiSense, our technological assumption was that it is possible to achieve in-memory-class query response times, even for hundreds of users simultaneously accessing massive data sets, while keeping the data (mostly) stored on disk. The result of our hybrid disk-based/in-memory technology is a BI solution based on what we now call ElastiCube, after which this blog is named. You can read more about this technological approach, which we call Just-in-Time In-memory Processing, at our BI Software Evolved technology page.

The answer to this question appears to be simple. You own your content. This is true on Facebook and most social media sites.
Here's how Facebook states the ownership of your content in its terms and conditions:
You own all of the content and information you post on Facebook, and you can control how it is shared through your privacy and application settings.
So, by posting content or information, you grant Facebook the license to use your content in accordance with your privacy and application settings. That means unless you've set the setting for a piece of content for "Custom" > Only Me", someone can see it.
If someone can see your content on Facebook, they can likely copy it or capture it in some way. You'll still own the content, but you may have lost control of it. In fact, even if you delete your pictures on Facebook, they still may not be technically deleted.
Your name and image are even set up by default to show up in Facebook's advertising shown to your friends. (To adjust this, go to "Account Settings"> "Facebook Ads" > "Edit social ad setting".)
This why a good rule of thumb is: Don't post anything on Facebook you would not like to see go public, even if your settings are completely locked down.
(And if you're in the US, you should take extra care not to post anything negative about your employer using your employers' computers or mobile devices.)
The issue of who controls our content is likely to become more controversial as the cloud makes it possible to store, sync and share content from any PC or device any time. People want access and the ability to share. But they want to do so without giving up control of their irreplaceable images, videos and documents.
This is why F-Secure has created Content Anywhere.
Content Anywhere is a safe personal cloud service provided through operators and ISPs that makes accessing your content wherever you are easy. With Content Anywhere, Internet providers will move beyond being 'data pipeline' to become the 'king of the content cloud.'
We're looking forward to sharing more about the our move into safe cloud technology, which we believe is the future of sharing and enjoying your content in a smart and secure way.

Social media is here to stay and it definitively changes our way to communicate. One new trend is the ability to communicate instantly without writing or saying anything. Good examples are Facebook's Like-button and the indicators for what you are doing or feeling. Facebook's Like-button is no doubt the most popular and important feature in this category. You really can't be a Facebook user without getting in touch with it. But the big question is what you really mean by clicking Like? It sounds simple, but may be more complex than you think. You do not only express support for the post you like, it is also a social gesture towards the poster. You show that you have read the post and want to stay in touch. Another interesting question is how to deal with good posts about bad things. We see them almost daily. Someone is writing an excellent post about something that is very wrong. You really dislike the topic of the post even if you think it's good that someone brings it up. You agree about something you dislike. Should you click Like? Does a like target the post or the topic of a post? There's no generic rule for this and we all act differently. More activity, likes and comments, boost a post and makes it more visible. So it would make sense to like the post as we want to spread awareness about the problem. But it still feels wrong to like something that makes you feel sick. So that's the poll question for today. How do you act when you see a good post about something bad? Do you click Like? [polldaddy poll=8445608] Safe surfing, Micke
If you like sailing and tall ships, I can recommend this podcast about Pam Bitterman's book Sailing to the far horizon. It's a great story about the last years of the community-operated ship Sofia, covering both a lot of happy sailing and the ship's sad end in the early eighties. But this is not about hippies on a ship, it's about how we record and remember our lives. In the podcast Pam tells us how the book was made possible by her parents saving her letters home. Perhaps they had a hunch that this story will be written down one day. Going on to state that e-mails and phone calls wouldn't have been saved that way. That's a very interesting point that should make us think. At least it made me think about what we will remember about our lives in, say, twenty years? We collect more info about what we are doing than ever before. We shoot digital pictures all the time and post status updates on Facebook. We are telling the world where we are, what we are doing and what we feel. Maybe in a way that is shallower than letters home, but we sample our lives at a very granular rate. The real question is however how persistent this data is? If we later realize we have experienced something unique enough to write a book about, have our digital life left enough traces to support us? Pam wrote the book about Sofia some twenty years later. A twenty year old paper is still young, but that's an eternity in the digital world. Will you still be on the same social media service? Do you still have the same account or have you lost it. Does the service even exist? And what about your e-mails, have you saved them? How are your digital photos archived? You may even have cleaned up yourself to fit everything into a cheaper cloud account. Here's something to keep in mind about retaining your digital life. Realize the value of your personal records. You may fail to see the value in single Facebook posts, but they may still form a valuable wholeness. If you save it you can choose to use it or not in the future. If you lose it you have no choice. Make sure you don't lose access to your mail, social media and cloud storage accounts. That would force you to start fresh, which usually means data loss. Always register a secondary mail address in the services. That will help you recover if you forget the password. Use a password manager to avoid losing the password in the first place. Redundancy is your friend. Do not store important data in a single location. The ideal strategy is to store your files both on a local computer and in a cloud account. It provides redundancy and also stores data in several geographically separated locations. This is easy with younited because you can set it to automatically back up selected folders. Mail accounts have limited capacity and you can't keep stuff forever. Don't delete your correspondence. Check your mail client instead for a function that archives your mail to local storage. Check your social media service for a way to download a copy of your stuff. In Facebook you can currently find this function under Settings / General. It's good to do this regularly, and you should at least do it if you plan to close your account and go elsewhere. Migrate your data when switching to a new computer or another cloud service. It might be tricky and take some time, but it is worth it. Do not see it as a great opportunity to start fresh and get rid of "old junk". If you are somewhat serious about digital photography, you should get familiar with DAM. That means Digital Asset Management. This book is a good start. Pam did not have a book in mind when she crossed the Pacific. But she was lucky and her parents helped her retain the memories. You will not be that lucky. Don't expect your friends on Facebook to archive posts for you, you have to do it yourself. You may not think you'll ever need the stuff, just like Pam couldn't see the book coming when onboard Sofia. But you never know what plans the future has for you. When you least expect it, you might find yourself in a developing adventure. Make yourself a favor and don't lose any digital memories. Safe surfing, Micke
Most of us have some kind of relationship with Facebook. We either love it, hate it or ignore it. Some of us are hooked. Some have found new opportunities, and many have got themselves into a mess on Facebook. Some are worry-free and totally open while others are deeply concerned about privacy. But we probably all agree that Facebook has changed our lives or at least impacted our ways to communicate. Facebook has showed that social media is an important tool for both business and private affairs. Facebook was in the right place at the right time to become the de-facto standard for social media. But the success of Facebook is also what makes it scary. Imagine the power you have if you know everything about everyone in the civilized world. And on top of that with quite loose legislation about what you can do with that data. Ok, everything and everyone are exaggerations, but not too far from the truth. Others have tried to challenge Facebook, but no one has succeeded so far. One reason is that social media automatically is monopolizing. The most important selection criteria is where your friends are, and that drives everyone into one common service. The fact that even Google failed with Google+, despite their huge resources and a ready user base from services like Gmail, just underlines how solid Facebook's position is. Ello is the latest challenger and they certainly have an interesting approach. Ello tries to hit Facebook straight in its weakest point and provide a service that respect user integrity. They may lack the resources of Google, but they can be credible in this area. The choice between Facebook and Google is like a rock and a hard place for the privacy minded, but Ello is different. Their manifesto says it all. Will Ello survive and will they be the David that finally defeats Goliath? Ello is in a very early phase and they certainly have a very long way to go. But remember that their success depends on you too. You may not be a product on Ello, but you are certainly a feature. The main feature, actually. The team can only provide a framework for our social interactions. But people to be social with is absolutely crucial for any social network. So Ello's raise or fall is mostly in our hands now. They need enough pioneers to make it a vibrant society. The development team can make the service fail, but they can only create potential for success. Ello needs you to materialize that potential. So what's my honest opinion about Ello? The fact that the service is based on privacy and integrity is good. We need a social media service like this. But there are also many open questions and dark clouds on Ello's sky. People have complained about its usability. And yes, usability is quite weird in many ways. It's also very obvious that Ello is too premature to be a tool for non-technical users. Now in October 2014, I would personally only invite people who are used to beta software. But both usability and the technical quality can be fixed, it just takes more work from the team. A bigger question mark is however the future business model of Ello. On Facebook you're a product and that's what pays for the "free" service. But how is Ello going to strike a balance between privacy and funding the operation? This is one of the big challenges. Another is if the privacy-promise really is enough? Many of us are already privacy-aware, but the vast majority is still quite clueless. What Ello needs is either a big increase in privacy awareness or something clever that Facebook doesn't provide and can't copy quickly. It may seem futile for a small startup to challenge Facebook. But keep in mind that Facebook was small too once in the beginning. Facebook showed us that we need social media. Perhaps Ello can show us that we need social media with integrity. But anyway, you are among those who decide Ello's future by either signing up or ignoring it. Safe surfing, @Micke-fi on Ello Picture: ello.co screen capture

What a poor thing to offer when fps mmo is possible. . (Go play Mag. ..) when is sony going to shake these folks who are not gamers pushing business models instead of real games we will want to play and support?.
Battlefield 3 is another where last generation software poses as the equal of Mag's cloud based tech.
128vs128 is just the tip of mag's iceberg and we getting crap like dust514 defiance bf3?!?!?!?
Speak up and quit letting them tell us what we want because they are not smart enough to make anything better while leading sony on about what they are really doing.....making a paycheck till they get fired.
I completely agree with you on Defiance and Dust.
Both games I was hoping for something much more then I got.
Defiance seemed like a Resistance 2 coop/ Starhawk combination with a bit of MAG's customization, but it turned out to be a Borderlands clone, for the most part that is how it feels to me. Lifeless, boring, repetitive and completely predictable AI, they never even tried to flank me or anyhting, its like they take turns attacking you so you dont get over whelmed, plus with the perk system if you ever do get in trouble just perk out of it. These coop games need to have some teeth, you need to feel the risk of certain moves and be forced to plan your attack, from what i played you can just run and gun the whole time and never worry about dieing, I think I died once during the beta when I left the room to go get a drink. I wanted it to be so good, and boy was I let down.
Dust I feel largely the same, its a shooter and the gunplay is boring as hell!!! Shooting does not feel good in this game at all IMO.
The iron sites are so bad I just hip fired the whole time, with the bullet spread you much more likely to hit someone blind firing then aiming, LOL. The graphics are much worse then MAG, and the player counts are no where near it.
I hate the microtransactions and pay to win style of Dust. The need to constantly rebuy all your gear makes time spent inbetween action long and tedious. With MAG there was respecing and then you were good to go until you wanted something different.
Dont force me to spend an hour in the in game store for every half an hour of game play.
Even the Eve integration seems like it cant really make this game appealing to me, But maybe in a couple years when it leaves the beta stage it will be worth a second look?
I have been more and more let down by the games coming out these days as the COD elephant is showing game devs that you do not have to put time or effort into your games, just hype them up and live off that.

K. Sparks - Go Harder
Artist: K. Sparks
Featuring: Julius Francis
Producer: Pajozo
Album: Unreleased
Avg Rating: 3.9 ( 43 votes )
With approximately eleventy-billion Booth-approved tracks under his proverbial belt you think it'd be hard for NY-representer, freestyle alumnus and prodigiously dope hip-hop creator K. Sparks to top his previous endeavors, but somehow, someway, the man seems to always find a way to Go Harder. Produced by Sparks' production BFF Pajozo, Go Harder features a far more electronically drenched beat than we're used to hearing K. flow over, but in the end the result is the same as Sparks drops the kind of bouncing, intricately cadenced rhymes I was hoping to hear on Bone Thugs' latest album. Add in vocals from Julius Francis and lines like "this is the start of something different, not your ordinary / a rapper that's intelligent, so grab your dictionaries" and we've got a banger on our hands. A lot of emcees go hard, but few go harder than Sparks. Go Harder isn't currently attached to any project, but given Sparks tireless work ethic, a new project can't be far off. Until then, enjoy…

Senate Votes Down Fairness Doctrine
February 26, 2009 - 2:58 PMThe Senate has barred federal regulators from reviving a policy, abandoned two decades ago, that required balanced coverage of issues on public airwaves.
The Senate vote on the so-called Fairness Doctrine was in part a response to conservative radio talk show hosts who feared that Democrats would try to revive the policy to ensure liberal opinions got equal time.
The Federal Communications Commission implemented the doctrine in 1949, but stopped enforcing it in 1987 after deciding new sources of information and programming made it unnecessary.
President Barack Obama says he has no intention of reimposing the doctrine, but Republicans, led by Sen. Jim DeMint, R-S.C., say they still need a guarantee the government would not establish new quotas or guidelines on programming.

In response to three comments on yesterday's blog, the Rice diet is like several other �diets� that have been around for a long time � in the case of the rice diet, for 70 years. They also have evolved into spas that treat famous people � the Pritikin in California and Florida, and the rice at Duke University. The diet originated at Duke for a woman who was diabetic when there was no dialysis or kidney transplant for the disease. The diet controlled her diabetes, and she lost weight which solved other problems. It evolved, and people like Buddy Hackett were treated at the Duke facility.
It is very similar to Pritikin, Dr. Ornish, and others in that it�s a low fat diet based on unprocessed foods, and the rice provides calories without a lot of protein or potassium, both of which are hard work for the kidneys if they�re marginal.
One of the originator�s offspring (still in the business) wrote a book about it a few years ago. Every diet I have ever seen does one thing � makes you eat less if you follow its rules. In some cases, there is no calorie counting. In Pritikin�s case, stay with low sugar, salt, fat, cholesterol, and caffeine. If you try to avoid all of them (he does suggest 4 ounces of lean meat or fish a day) you wind up losing weight by chance. I did that for the first 70 pounds until I started peeing blood, lost a kidney (because of cancer) and had a lot of help from our oldest daughter. I made bean soup with smoked turkey legs for flavoring, and lots of carrots, onions, and garlic. I baked my own bread with only flour yeast, and water for ingredients. I ate all I wanted, and roved (walked) and it worked just fine.
I spent this morning, from about 6:30 to 2:30 at an AARP meeting to tell us that there will be a single, nationwide set of documents for training and teaching the Safe Driving Course. Most of the attendees (about 60) felt that everything could have been covered in an hour or less, and a single sheet of paper would contain all the necessary information.
When I got home I washed both cars, and they both look a lot better. Water still beads up on them, but I'll protectall them tomorrow ( Protectall is a spray liquid wax that is very popular in the RV world because it is incredibly slick.)
We had Sesame Chicken ( Spark Recipe) tonight, and more chicken breast is marinating for tomorrow. We also had roasted pepper, salad, one cup or brown rice, and a fruit (peach for me, orange for the BW). She made decaffeinated tea, which she served over ice, but I got to do the rest of it.
So far I have lost five pounds in six days, on the Rice diet, and a couple of pounds normal fluctuation two days before that. I was at 176 this morning, which is about 179 fully dressed, but with empty pockets. I'll fall out of my leeway if this goes on, but it's fun to see the weight shrink.
The BW is losing weight too, but a little less, I think. She isn't talking about it much, but she is pretty much going along with the diet.
We had our regular Thursday meeting at the Dockside Caf� this morning instead of Tiffany�s. That�s the place on Lake Tarpon with the glass wall in our meeting room. There was a buffet, and they opened up just for us. The agreement was that each person pays $8 for breakfast, with a minimum of 10 breakfasts. Some of the guys had plates piled high with eggs, bacon, sausage, potatoes, and Danishes, and drank juice and coffee. I splurged with decaffeinated coffee, Danish, about one egg, and some potatoes. I�m not sure what it all totaled, but I know I could have really ruined the day there.
We had two members of the Tarpon Springs Club there, Mary and Brendan, and even then we only had 8 paid breakfasts. We�ll have to see how this all turns out � several members are out of town or at work right now when we meet.
I wrote the check, and later deposited the receipts. Then I went to my local Goodyear store and priced tires for the Dodge. The tires are six years old, and probably have another 25 or 30 thousand miles left, but I learned the hard way that old tires don�t like high speed travel. Both cars get out on US 19 and the interstates periodically, so they both need good tires. The Goodyear manager gave me prices on three tires - $338.51 for four Kelly tires rated at 40,000 miles, $451.33 for four Goodyear tires rated at 50,000 miles, both A traction and B temperature, and $588.46 for four Michelin tires rated at 80K miles. The Camry is riding on new Michelins, and it�s kind of silly to buy 80,000 mile tires for a 10 year old car with 62,000 miles on it, but I felt like going first class.
Before I did that, I had to go down to Sam�s Club and check on their prices. They didn�t have Goodyears in my size (the antique P195/70R14�s) but they did have a BF Goodrich similar to the Goodyear. The full price for them was about $330. The 80,000 mile Michelin�s were about $400, but they had a $70 rebate on four tires until Sept. 30, so I paid $328.92 for four Michelins with all the trimmings, including road hazards, which would have been an extra cost at the Goodyear store.
The discount was just luck, but the difference in price shows that it is good to shop around a little. The Costco manager was telling a guy with an 8 year old tire that he didn�t sell it to the customer as an old tire � he checks every tire in inventory once each year to make sure that they have been rotated properly. Another guy told me that they control their inventory first in-first out when I asked last year.
All in all, I had a good day, except that it took me 30 minutes to get to the head of the line and buy the tires, and then more than three hours to get them mounted. I can tell you a lot about the Sam�s Club inventory, and I did buy some espresso roast coffee beans for the BW.
I slept 9 hours last night, and didn�t wake until 7:30, so I took the dogs for a walk first. When we got back it was 8:20, and only 72 degrees, so the BW went out to Oldsmar for another cortisone shot and I went for a walk. When I was done, and just ready to get in the shower, she called because she couldn�t start the car � the key wouldn�t turn. I tried to coach her to move the steering wheel, and she said she had done that. While she was on the phone I had her move it both right and left, and then told her to push harder. Nothing worked, and she didn�t want to call AAA, so I told her to wait inside because she said it was too hot in the car, got dressed, and drove out there � a half hour away. I saw her car, opened the door, and started the car with no trouble. Then I locked it and started for the Baycare building, but she was walking toward me.
She tried to start the car again, and couldn�t, so I used her keys, started the car, and asked � she had always been pulling hard on the steering wheel, either right or left, and it wouldn�t allow the key to turn. She said she had used that technique once before and it worked, but I don�t know how to solve her problem. I did offer to trade cars back with her, but she likes the Camry.
A couple of weeks ago the BW decided that a magazine (newspaper?) was worth buying. It was on a stand at the checkout counter at the grocery, and the front had a big headline � �Diet Better than Surgery?�, or something like that. It fermented for a while, but a couple of days ago I noticed that it had been lying open on the counter for three or four days. I asked her if she was going to try it and said I would if she would, and she said she would. We had five pounds of brown texmati rice on hand, so it wasn�t a big problem. I did buy more fruit, but we had plenty of everything else. The diet is based on the rice diet developed at Duke University, so I bought a couple of copies of the book that inspired the article, one for the BW and one for Bill, who has really serious kidney problems. I couldn�t find the original diet described anywhere, but there are a lot of people that will sell you something if you search for �Rice Diet�.
We have now done it for two days and I am surprised at the amount of sodium on my food entries. I don�t know if you can read the article, or if I�ll get in trouble for posting it, but here are scanned copies of the thing.
After three days I am surprised at the drop in sodium on the nutrition page, and I had lost three pounds this morning after two days, and the BW claimed that she was less bloated and felt better. The next trick is to keep with it for a while. I'll let you know how it turns out.

Karen Berger Leaving Vertigo
For 'New Opportunities'
Published: 12/03/2012, Last Updated: 12/04/2012 04:05am
Longtime Vertigo head Karen Berger, currently Executive Editor and Senior Vice President, will be leaving DC at the end of March 2013. She's staying until then to smooth the transition to "a new leadership team which includes staffers whom she has mentored over the years," the announcement said. Berger is ready for a professional change, and "looking forward to pursuing exciting new opportunities."
DC is planning a celebration next year to celebrate Berger's career at DC.
Berger has been at DC since 1979, and has headed Vertigo since its founding nearly 20 years ago. Titles from her portfolio include The Sandman, Hellblazer, V for Vendetta, Fables, Preacher, the Invisibles, 100 Bullets, Y - The Last Man and American Vampire. The number of ongoing series has declined in recent years, with Hellblazer, the longest continuously-running title in the Vertigo line, recently canceled and reborn in new form as part of the New 52 (see "'Constantine' to New 52"). But Vertigo has also had recent high-profile successes, including Get Jiro, by Anthony Bourdain (see "Celebrity Chef Writing Vertigo Title") and Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (see "DC's 'The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo' GN Commercial").
DC is promising an ongoing commitment to the line. DC Entertainment President Diane Nelson said of Berger's departure: "We are extremely grateful for Karen's commitment and dedication to Vertigo, its books and its incredibly talented team of staff and creators. In Vertigo she leaves a legacy to which we remain committed and on which we intend to build for the future."
Berger's departure is part of a continuing multi-year transition in DC's top management team, as Levitz-era executives depart and the newer Nelson executive team chooses their replacements. Berger's husband, SVP and Creative Director Richard Bruning, was among a group of executives that left the company two years ago (see "DC Executive Shake-up Continues").

Constellation Orion in BSG: they're getting close! - VIDEOS
by Keith McDuffee, posted Apr 21st 2008 12:02PM
Leave it to the eagle-eyed commenters to find subtle details in episodes of the shows they love. Subtle, cool, details I should say.
Take last week's episode of Battlestar Galactica. Commenter Michael asks us whether we noticed the Orion constellation during an establishing shot with the Basestars. I had to admit, I didn't notice it, as it was such a short scene and I guess it wasn't anything I was looking for at the time. I went back to my recording for the show and, sure enough, there it was. By the power of Hulu I was able to get a clip of just that one scene and embed it below, after the jump.

The Boots of Spring
by Fashion 28 Reactions 2 Shares Print
While the Spring collections were applauded, by retailers and editors alike, for their bursts of color and various prints, I wonder how the boots of Spring will go over. My eyes zeroed in on these fierce boots models strutted on the Givenchy, Balenciaga, and Miu Miu catwalks. These elaborate boots are fit for warriors; or, for the wardrobe of a sci-fi film. I can definitely see the Olsens daring to wear these, or the top reigning editors. If you had the means, would you dare?

Gorgeous! But so impractical. I dislike the third pair. Love, love, love the middle - imagine with a little black jumpsuit, or more neon - for a little rave somewhere. First pair, maybe with quite a deconstructed outfit, like parchment coloured wrap/bubble skirt, thin white top, shredded black leather corset-y thing. It would need careful dressing, but it would be so amazing if done right.

Create a "cool" penguin that stands out from the crowd. Model Magic® Presto Dots makes it easy!
Let's get started! Create a base for your penguin by gently pushing two foam balls onto either end of a short wooden dowel stick. When the foam balls have been connected, you should not be able to see the dowel. This will be the head and body of the penguin.
Cover your bases! Press or roll a smooth layer of black Model Magic large enough to cover the head of the penguin. Press the Model Magic firmly around the head. Press or roll a smooth layer of white Model Magic large enough to cover the body of the penguin. Press the Model Magic firmly around the body. Smooth out any gaps so the base is completely covered.
Dot, dot, dot. Roll out another layer of black Model Magic. Push the Presto Dot tool down into the Model Magic. When the tool can't go any further, give your wrist a twist, tilt the tool back, and pull it up. Tap the bottom of the tool gently on the head of the penguin and pull your hand away to release the dot. The dot will stick to the surface. Repeat this process until the entire head of the penguin is covered in dots.
Just wing it! Roll out two wings for the penguin and press them onto the body. Model Magic that is fresh from the package will stick to itself.
Take a stand. Roll out orange Model Magic to create two feet for the penguin. Gently press the penguin onto its feet. If desired, cover the feet in dots using the same technique above.
It's all in the details. Use additional bits of Model Magic to make eyes, a beak and other details to bring your penguin to life. Allow the Model Magic to air dry.
Let's make something!

We were in need of new twins for a trundle situation, but being frugal meant we had to consider cutting the foam of the king into two twins. The component system made this totally possible. I found that using a utility knife and pulling the foam away from the cut worked best. It is slightly jagged on the cut sides, but with a mattress cover (ikea) and a twin fitted sheet it isn't very noticable. We also move them around quite a bit, and the pieces stay together without needing to be re-situated. You may want to add another fitted sheet on the bottom two layers, which we negelected to do, leaving us with some linty hairballs on the bare sticky foam bottom. I like that we are able to have differing levels of firmness. The only stinky part is the smell (pun!), which I've found is unavoidable with memory foam. I actually felt like it was able to air more than a normal memory foam mattress because of the layers being separated. If you do a similar project, do consider the amount of space required to lay out the mattress prior to cutting, which you will want to do long enough for complete expansion. Totally worth the effort to safe the $.
The ad is very mis representing - Looks like an actual mattress will be delivered to you. But its actually three little pieces of scrap foam..... not comfy, not recommended.... tricked into wasting $***$ *****
This mattress took a little while to get used to but now I am very happy with it.
Replaced an 8 year old 12" memory foam mattress with this product to reduce the amount of climbing into bed every night (we have an under dresser and my wife and I are "vertically challenged"). Very impressed with the comfort of the mattress. Zero (or close to none) nasty smell or off gassing unlike the previous foam mattress. I only let this new mattress expand for about 4 hours before putting on the bed and it is fine. It expanded to full thickness in about 30 min or less. Only negative thing I can stay about this mattress is the sub standard cover. Very low quality but for the price, it is worth getting a mattress cover for it. I spent a lot of time shopping and comparing 8" foam mattresses before buying this one. I hope you will benefit from my efforts.
I ordered two of the twin sizes of this product for my sons' and the quality and comfort is great. I decided to order the King size for mine and my husband's bed. However, the comfort is not there in the King size. It is not nearly as soft, and the memory foam does not keep it's "memory" like it does in the smaller sizes. I am not happy at all with the purchase of this product.
I purchased this to go in the forward berth in my sailboat. I was a little skeptical about the memory foam as I have slept on a MF mattress in a hotel and was not impressed. The shipment came fast, 3-4 days. I ended up only using the firm foam and the MF layers, I tried all 3 and then just the 2 and couldn't tell a big difference so I opted for the lower height which gives me a little more head room on the boat. I've slept aboard a few nights now and love it. I'm not a good sleeper and toss and turn a lot. It drives my wife crazy. As soon as it warms up and she tests out the new mattress on the boat, I bet we'll be buying one for the house too. I would buy this again. I looked at something similar at IKEA but for 1/4 the cost the Overstock option was the best buy.
Great product, we are using it in our camper because the mattress that came with the camper was terrible.

ACLU Chooses Liberal Agenda Over Constitution
No one should be surprised in the least at the activities of the supposed American Civil Liberties Union, they've exposed their far left agenda long ago. Sure, every once in a while they'll actually work to protect the Constitution, but, notice that their name is not based on the Constitution: civil liberties are whatever they say they are, despite claiming that they are there to protect the Constitution. That's why they so often go missing when the Constitution is on the line, when people's Rights, as laid out in the Bill of Rights, are under assault. Much like most of the US media, they are no longer showing a bias, but are actual cheerleaders and advocates for the Democrat Party. Witness
A Victory for Women: Employer Can't Use Its Religion to Deny Birth Control Coverage for Its Employees
On Friday, a district court in Missouri rejected a case brought by a mining company challenging the federal birth control rule that requires employer health plans to cover contraception without a co-pay. The Missouri case is one of 30 pending, and it is the first case to be dismissed on the merits. It's a tremendous victory for women, particularly those employed by the mining company.
It's a tremendous loss for Freedom of Religion, yet the ACLU isn't too concerned about that. They've voluntarily abdicated their role as so-called protector of the Constitution in order to push an agenda.
The court decisively rejected the claim that the birth control rule infringes on the mining company owner's religious beliefs. The court found that the rule does not prevent the company's owner "from keeping the Sabbath, from providing a religious upbringing for his children, or from participating in a religious ritual such as communion." Those religious practices are different from contributing to a health plan that an employee might use to obtain contraception. This "indirect financial support" of someone else's possible behavior is not a burden on the company owner's religious beliefs.
Importantly, the court also recognized that religious liberty claims cannot be used as a "means to force one's religious practices upon others." That is exactly what the company's owner was trying to do. We are pleased that the court rejected an attempt to use religion to discriminate, and we hope that the courts in the other cases do so as well.
Whew, that's an incredible way to spin the topic. What of those who want their health insurance to have a $0 copay for contraception, sterilization, and abortifacients? Is that not pushing their religious views on others?
And what of the notion that this was a federal government mandate that requires employers to provide insurance with $0 copays for contraception, sterilization, and abortifacients? Is that not the federal government forcing their religious views on The People in violation of the 1st Amendment?

Apple says lack of multi-user support on iPad is a 'known issue,' 'being investigated'Apple has signaled that it is aware of a desire to support multiple users on one iPad, and that the issue is "currently being investigated" by the company's engineering team.
The developer reached out to AppleInsider after they received a reply from Apple after submitting a bug report. Apple's Bug Reporter includes an option to specify that a submission isn't a bug report, but rather a suggestion.
In the suggestion submitted to Apple, the developer simply requested that the company add support for multiple users to the iPad.
"After further investigation it has been determined that this is a known issue, which is currently being investigated by engineering," the official response from Apple Developer Connection's Worldwide Developer Relations team reads.
The developer said they have often used Apple's Bug Reporter to submit requests for new features. However, this standard form letter is the first time that Apple has actually responded to such a submission from this particular developer.
Apple's response is not the first indication that the company may be working on multi-user support for the iPad. In 2010, before the iPad was officially announced, The Wall Street Journal reported that an early prototype of the device was designed to be shared by and customized for multiple family members.
Sharing the iPad was said to have been a major focus for Apple early on in the device's development. One idea the company was said to have experimented with was the ability for users to leave virtual sticky notes on the device for someone else to read once they began using it.
Apple was also said to have considered having the iPad recognize individuals via a built-in forward facing camera. The 2010 report said it was "unclear" whether the features would be included at launch, and it would turn out that none of them would be a part of the first three generations of iPad models.
Facial recognition has also been the key element of Apple's patent applications related to multi-user support on iOS devices. One such filing detailed by AppleInsider in December described a system that would quickly identify a user, and customize the device with their unique applications, settings and wallpaper.
