It's nice to have cool features and function, but it is even nicer to be able to easily put those features and functions to work for your business. In my opinion, WebSphere CloudBurst excels at enabling users to take advantage of its plethora of features. To start, the fact that it is delivered as an appliance means users can drop it in, connect it to a network, and power up the box. After a minimal amount of one-time setup, WebSphere CloudBurst is ready to be used. There is no need to install and maintain software on several different machines since all of the function is delivered directly on the appliance.
Beyond the ease of use afforded by its appliance form, WebSphere CloudBurst provides a very sleek, intuitive, Web 2.0 style GUI. From this GUI, users can perform quite a few different tasks. One of the features that appeals most to me is the drag-and-drop editor for building WebSphere Application server topologies. Using the drag-and-drop editor, I constructed a configuration of clustered WebSphere Application Servers, complete with web servers, management servers, and applications in seconds. Really!
In addition to the ease in which WebSphere CloudBurst allows users to build WebSphere topologies, the ease in which these topologies are turned into running WebSphere instances is just as remarkable. After defining a private cloud to WebSphere CloudBurst, a process that is plain and simple I might add, the configurations constructed in the drag-and-drop editor are deployed to that cloud with the click of a button in the GUI. WebSphere CloudBurst takes care of assigning the WebSphere virtual systems to the private cloud based on resource availability and high availability considerations, and it assigns IP addresses as needed. The user is afforded a hassle-free process that results in a complete WebSphere middleware environment, operating system and user applications included.
Not all uses of the appliance will occur in the GUI. To that end, WebSphere CloudBurst provides a handy Command Line Interface. This
The focus on consumability is ever present in the WebSphere CloudBurst Appliance, from the physical form in which it is delivered to the easy-to-use administrative interfaces. You can take a look at some of these capabilities yourself via new demos available on YouTube.

The security devil is always in the details of the attack: the ones you've endured, the ones you prepare yourself to fend off, and the ones that, you fear, will catch you completely unaware and defenseless. The Internet of Things (IoT) is nothing if not an endless proliferation of details. It's the vision of a world in which continuous Internet connectivity and addressability is embedded into a growing range of human artifacts, into the natural world, and even into our smartphones, appliances, and physical persons. In the IoT vision, every new "thing" - sensor, actuator, data source, data con...

How do APIs and IoT relate? The answer is not as simple as merely adding an API on top of a dumb device, but rather about understanding the architectural patterns for implementing an IoT fabric. There are typically two or three trends: Exposing the device to a management framework Exposing that management framework to a business centric logic Exposing that business layer and data to end users. This last trend is the IoT stack, which involves a new shift in the separation of what stuff happens, where data lives and where the interface lies. For instance, it's a mix of architectural styles ...

Scott Jenson leads a project called The Physical Web within the Chrome team at Google. Project members are working to take the scalability and openness of the web and use it to talk to the exponentially exploding range of smart devices. Nearly every company today working on the IoT comes up with the same basic solution: use my server and you'll be fine. But if we really believe there will be trillions of these devices, that just can't scale. We need a system that is open a scalable and by using the URL as a basic building block, we open this up and get the same resilience that the web enjoys.

We are reaching the end of the beginning with WebRTC, and real systems using this technology have begun to appear. One challenge that faces every WebRTC deployment (in some form or another) is identity management. For example, if you have an existing service – possibly built on a variety of different PaaS/SaaS offerings – and you want to add real-time communications you are faced with a challenge relating to user management, authentication, authorization, and validation. Service providers will want to use their existing identities, but these will have credentials already that are (hopefully) i...

BANGALORE: If energy minister Shobha Karandlaje is to be believed, there will be no power cuts this summer.
The power situation is good because of increase in generation and power purchase, she explained. Hence, there's no need to inconvenience people in the coming months, she added.
Karnataka is purchasing 1,280 MW of power from other states and private players to meet the shortage. The government has planned to purchase an additional 200 MW from January to May to ensure adequate supply. The state's power consumption is estimated to reach 185 million units during the summer months, the minister said.
Further, additional 500 MW power from Bellary Thermal Power Station will help ease the situation. Shobha said that power will be supplied in single phase throughout the night to help children study.
The minister claimed the government is supplying to rural areas 12 hours of power in a single phase and six hours in three phases. "There is no scheduled loadshedding in the state. Power disruptions could be due to technical problems", Shobha added.

unfortunately we lost the game due to young and unexperienced side, Italy and/or Germany would never allow something like that (it wasn't nice game to watch due to great tactics from both Bilic and Terim and a lot of running from left to right side but extremely nerve-breaking).

Fact is. We had alot of injurys and suspensions (Aswell as croatia rested 8 players from the match against Poland) going into that game and we managed to hold on until they scored. Than the urgency came back and we scored. Against Germany.. I would love to see us in the final but I can't see us doing it without our best players. But this is a sign that Turkey can always contend with the top teams in the world.

Turkey were clever. They do possess a passing game but it's not as effective against top opposition as the defensive long ball game that made normal time so tedious. And then, in extra time, with Turkey coping with the humidity I think a little better (though Tuncay having been playing in the North East was an exception), they started stringing together passes, keeping the ball and putting Croatia under more pressure. Turkey were the better team in extra time.

well, he did not complain about extra time but the fact that he'd been trying to make a substitution and referees just ignored him for some reason which in the end cost him a semi-final. id be going of my nuts too. in all fairness turkey did well, croatia played some great games and its still a very young team and bilic is young too, but you cant deny things they achieved and god knows we love them..just as much. it doesnt matter if you lose if you lose with a good fight and put your heart to it. by the way bilic and players got a really warm welcome back in croatia. they did us proud and they will only get better. ok he made a mistake but not keeping cool head b4 penalties but hes young and just a man but i would rather see him like that then being like a dead fish with no passion for game.

Some people will open a door to a dark room, see that it's dark and leave. Others will open the same door and stay to see what they can discover.
There is a difference between an 'encounter' and 'experience'. We all have 'encountered' the darkness of this Earth. Whether it is hate, anger, jealousy, envy, lying, or thieving - we all have encountered the darkness. When we see the darkness and leave, we let it control. Yet, if we were to enter that place and willingly meet every dark spot with light, then we would find that by simply being there creates change. Render darkness void; shine.

Overall the new UI, is fine. but... the shop occupies like 75-80% of my screen, and its not affected by de UI size on options. its really annoying that half of my minimap is cutted, because of the new size of the shop . i think it should be get a option to adapt the size of the shop in game, o make it work together with the UI size option that the game already have.
Another thing is, the chat letters, OMG are soooo tiny, is very uncomfortable to read. and is not editable by opccion (note that before were bigger).

The new James Bond flick, Skyfall will be coming out in theatres this Friday and to celebrate, I decided to put together a fun look inspired by the movie franchise! I'm super excited about seeing Skyfall and have always been a huge James Bond fan. Are any of you guys going to see it?! They're saying it's supposed to be one of the best James Bond movies ever made so I can't wait to check it out!
For my inspired makeup look, I went with 'Golden Eye' as my starting point and decided to do glittery gold eyes and a pretty pinkish-nude lip with a pop of gold. First, I applied Benefit's RSVP creaseless cream eyeshadow over the brow bone and crease and ever-so-lightly on the top part of the lids as a base. Then I applied Make Up For Ever Gold Aqua Cream to my lids with my fingers and worked it in quickly as it does set pretty fast. To set the gold and add even more colour, I put Naked Cosmetics' yellowish-gold pigment on top and worked the colour into a light wash into the crease and on the brow bone. Then I took Make Up For Ever Gold metal powder and worked it into the crease to deepen it some more and then blended both of them together. After applying some glitter glue to the lids, I applied Make Up For Ever gold glitter onto the lids for the perfect golden eyed look! I keep scotch tape handy as I usually end up with lots of glitter on my cheeks every time I do this and the tape helps to get rid of it all. Black eyeliner and dramatic false lashes completed the eyes.
With the rest of the face, I wanted to be consistent with using products with golden tones. A peachy pink blush was applied to the apples of the cheeks, rose gold highlighted the tops of the cheekbones and a golden bronzer was added to the cheekbones, temples and forehead. I lined my lips with a pinkish-brown lip liner and topped it off with some pinkish-nude lipstick and for an extra dash of fun and gold, I applied a bit of Make Up For Ever's Gold metal powder to the middle of my bottom lip. James Bond always has some interesting looking characters in every movie so I really wanted make this a fun, exaggerated look to go with the theme :)
I love wearing glitter these days, especially since it's more acceptable to wear at this time of year. This is also a great idea for a holiday party makeup look! Nothing says the holidays better than wearing glitter and sparkles ;)

Holiday parties are soon coming up and I'm already getting invitations! It's time to start thinking about dresses and hair and makeup! I like planning everything in advanced so I'm not flustered when the days roll around. One of my favourite things to do is buying the outfits! This year, I'm going all out glam and buying a couple new party dresses! It sucks to think about the snow, sludge and below freezing temperatures that are bound to show up sooner or later, and already has in some parts of Toronto, but holiday parties are what helps get that yucky stuff off my mind and focus on the fun that's about to transpire ;)
Do you guys plan your holiday looks in advance or a couple days before or the night of?! Any ideas on what makeup looks you want to wear?
Hugs, Kisses & Glitter,

Bio-Rad Laboratories announces the launch of the ZOE™ Fluorescent Cell Imager, one of the first cell imaging systems able to deliver the power of microscopy in a system that is as easy to use as a tablet. The system includes three fluorescent channels and brightfield to simplify fluorescence imaging for cell culture applications.
Fluorescence microscopes are used in traditional cell culture workflows to confirm transfection efficiency and visualize fluorescent proteins. Performing this task requires training and the process can be time-consuming. Fluorescence microscopes can take 15 minutes to warm up and the systems are often located in a separate facility that is outfitted with a darkroom.
However, the ZOE Fluorescent Cell Imager's LEDs are instantly ready to use after the power is turned on. Researchers simply place their culture dish onto ZOE's stage and then access all controls using the LCD touch screen, tapping the screen to capture images and pinching with their fingers to zoom up to 20x magnification. Outfitted with a light shield, ZOE enables users to perform fluorescence experiments in ambient light on their lab benchtop, eliminating the need for a dedicated darkroom.
"Users report they turn on ZOE and know immediately what to do, even those who are imaging cell fluorescence for the first time," said Veronika Kortisova-Descamps, Bio-Rad product manager, Cell Biology.
Additional Benefits of ZOE
- Multichannel fluorescence — detection of fluorescence emission at blue, green, and red wavelengths is accomplished with three fluorescence channels optimized for commonly used fluorophores
- Large field of view — motorized stage and large field of view (0.70 mm2) enable researchers to see more of their sample, faster
- Manipulate and store images on hard drive — users can merge images for co-expression experiments and store up to 12 GB of image files for export to a USB flash drive
Please visit www.bio-rad.com/ZOEpr for more information about Bio-Rad's new ZOE Fluorescent Cell Imager.

Tankless water heater
I need to know the pros and cons of the tankless water heater. Like: Gas better than electric? How often would the unit have to be replaced/repaird? How does this unit affect the electrical circuitry? Is this unit better than a regular water heater that neds to be replaced every 10 years or so?
I put in a Takagi TK-2 about a year ago. I absolutely love it. It replaced a tank that was starting to leak. Some of the work can be done yourself, depending on your abilities. Mine hangs on the wall with the Takagi brackets. Wiring is basic, runs on 110, the gas line it requires is fairly sizeable.
I know there are other models out there that are good too. Don't get a cheap one, get a big one that can do the job.
We can run 2 showers at the same time with it. No real complaints with it, except that when you're doing dishes and the water is being turned on and off, cold water gets in the pipe before it fires up. You end up getting little bursts of cold/cool water. It's just a minor inconvenience.
They look cool, take less space, and are much more efficient. The TK-2 is power vented, so you need special venting that is more expensive than your B vent, and can't be hooked in with any other appliances. Yes it needs power to operate, no power, no hot water.
I know there are other models out there that are good too. Don't get a cheap one, get a big one that can do the job.

Orioles interested in Diamondbacks outfielder Jason Kubel
Jan 5, 2013, 7:20 PM EST
CBS Sports' Jon Heyman reports that the Orioles have expressed interest in acquiring corner outfielder Jason Kubel from the Diamondbacks but are "disinclined" at this point to meet Arizona's demands, which center around young pitching.
The D'Backs have an overly crowded outfield and are currently shopping both Kubel and Justin Upton.
Upton has drawn serious attention from multiple teams — including the Padres, Rangers, Mariners and Braves — and would obviously fetch a far better return package than Kubel. The younger brother of B.J. Upton has hit .284/.363/.481 with 48 homers, 155 RBI and 39 stolen bases over the past two seasons.
He's owed a total of $38.5 million in salary through the 2015 campaign.
Kubel, 30, batted .253/.327/.506 with 30 home runs and 90 RBI in 2012. He signed a two-year, $16 million free agent contract with the Snakes last winter. That deal also includes a $7.5 million club option for 2014.

|Protecting "Auricular Confession" and Religious Freedom
|By Brad Miner
|Monday, 24 March 2014
This story begins during an interregnum.
The very first man appointed in 1808 to serve as bishop in the newly created diocese of New York never set foot in America. Somewhat in a rush, Pius VII chose R. Luke Concanen, shortly before Napoleon's army captured the pope and sent him into exile. (It was from this same pope that Napoleon had snatched the proffered imperial crown to place upon his own head.)
Upon Concanen's death, his sometime friend and antagonist, John Connolly, like Concanen an Irish Dominican long living in Rome, was designated for New York, but – the Napoleonic Wars having just ended – he did not arrive in Manhattan until 1815.
Archbishop John Carroll of Baltimore was unhappy about the pope's decision to name two men for New York who had no practical experience in the United States, but in this he had no one to blame but himself. He had suggested the establishment of four new American dioceses and had provided candidates (all approved by the pope) for Boston, Philadelphia, and Bardstown, but he knew no one up to the task in New York. So he thought it best – for the time being – that New York diocese be governed from Boston.
Carroll's hesitance is perplexing. In order to begin to prepare New York for it's first bishop, he sent a delegation of his brother Jesuits to New York led by a man who may well have been the best episcopal candidate in America: Fr. Anthony Kohlmann. Kohlmann, Alsatian by birth, would go on to become president of Georgetown College and then a professor at the Gregorian University in Rome, where his prize pupil was Gioacchino Pecci, the future Pope Leo XIII.
But in 1813, while still in New York (and still awaiting a bishop), Kohlmann was involved in a celebrated case in American law, one epochal for Catholics, and an early demonstration of the nation's commitment to religious freedom.
Catholics in New York, almost all immigrants, were rising in numbers and esteem, but suspicion remained about "papist" practices. So when a Catholic man, Daniel Philips, came to the confessional at St. Peter's, New York's first Catholic church, and told Fr. Kohlmann that he had received some stolen jewels – he even brought the booty with him – and after Fr. Kohlmann took those jewels and returned them to the victim (another St. Peter's parishioner, James Keating), the stage was set for a dramatic confrontation between Church and State.
Having been made whole by Fr. Kohlmann's restitution, Keating went to the police to let them know they could drop the case. But restitution does not erase the crime and the police demanded that Keating identify the person who returned his property. And Keating admitted it was his church's rector.
Now official attention fell upon Kohlmann – first in police interrogation, then in a grand jury proceeding, and finally in Manhattan's Court of General Sessions.
But before the criminal trial began, testimony from others revealed the names of two men who had actually stolen the jewels, and, from their confessions, the name of Philips, so the prosecutor was willing separate Fr. Kohlmann from the case.
Mr. William Sampson, Esq.
The good priest was relieved – until, that is, he met with the trustees of St. Peter's, some of whom were lawyers. They saw an opportunity in People v. Philips to establish a legal precedent and convinced Kohlmann to give testimony that enabled him to refuse in court to reveal the name of Philips. There was a charade concerning contempt of court, but what the judges, prosecutor, defense attorneys, and church trustees – everyone really except the thieves and poor Mr. Philips – were after was a decision about the inviolability of words heard by a priest in the Sacrament of Penance.
A defense counsel in the case was a Protestant lawyer named William Sampson, who immediately after the conclusion of the trial wrote an account of the case under the splendid title, The Catholic Question in America: Whether a Roman Catholic Clergyman be in any case compellable to disclose the secrets of Auricular Confession. Mr. Sampson was an Irish immigrant with a remarkable history of his own that included imprisonment and exile from England and Ireland for having defended Irish Catholics against persecution and discrimination.
The presiding member of the court was then-mayor De Witt Clinton, who had served in the U.S. Senate and would later become New York's sixth governor.
Mr. Sampson successfully argued that if the tenets of a religion cannot be freely and wholly practiced, then the religion cannot be practiced, period. "The people of whose will [the Constitution] speaks," he told the court, "were not of any one church but of many and various sects all of whom had suffered more or less in Europe for their religious tenets, and many. . .had unrelentingly persecuted each other." He continued:
In the court's unanimous decision, Mayor Clinton wrote:
This was the first legal affirmation of confessional privilege in American history.
In a later case, People v. Smith (1817), a Staten Island court found that the right to such privileged communication did not extend to Protestant clergy, since no actual sacrament of penance exists in Protestantism.
But the Smith case led to a New York law protecting all communication of a spiritual nature between clergy and penitents.
Let's hope that this past will be prolog to a recommitment to religious liberty in our time.

ENGLEWOOD CLIFFS, N.J., Jan. 27, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- It's time to forget everything you thought you knew about compromising taste for fewer calories. Just ask Kim Cattrall. As part of its new campaign, I Can't Believe It's Not Butter!® has partnered with Ms. Cattrall to show consumers they can have it all - especially when it comes to their food. Featuring a rich and delicious fresh butter taste, I Can't Believe It's Not Butter! delivers flavor without compromise.
To view the Multimedia News Release, please click: http://multivu.prnewswire.com/mnr/icantbelieveitsnotbutter/48300/
Ms. Cattrall will appear in the new I Can't Believe It's Not Butter! campaign as the star of a series of television commercials slated to air in March 2011. In a savvy style reminiscent of her famous television series role, Ms. Cattrall plays out some clever storylines that place her in the company of delicious-looking men and delectable food, brought to life by a series of clever double entendres and some fun wordplay.
"Enjoying I Can't Believe It's Not Butter! is kind of like finding a deliciously gorgeous man, and then discovering he's single," joked Ms. Cattrall. "That's the spirit that we're playing with in this campaign - we're showing women they can have it all - delicious taste, with fewer calories and less fat than butter."
Barry Sands, Senior Brand Manager for I Can't Believe It's Not Butter! added, "In fact, a new taste test found that four out of five butter lovers agree that I Can't Believe It's Not Butter! Original spread tastes just as good as fresh butter.(1) The 'You Can Have It All' campaign highlights the rich and delicious fresh butter taste of I Can't Believe It's Not Butter!, while reminding audiences that this taste comes with 70 percent less saturated fat and 30 percent fewer calories than butter and zero grams of trans fat per serving.(2)"
"I do love to eat, but I strive to eat well - so I love having a choice that I can feel good about using every day," said Ms. Cattrall. "I Can't Believe It's Not Butter! tastes as great as fresh butter and I feel satisfied when I eat it, so I don't have to compromise."
To highlight the great taste and versatility of I Can't Believe It's Not Butter!, Chef Alex Guarnaschelli of Butter Restaurant in New York City created six exclusive recipes inspired by the fresh butter taste for the campaign launch. From a Fresh Cranberry Spread for toast to I Can't Believe It's Not Butter! Cookies, the recipes featuring I Can't Believe It's Not Butter! are highlighted on www.icantbelieveitsnotbutter.com.
"I grew up watching my mother make toast with I Can't Believe It's Not Butter! It always was, and still is, in my family's refrigerator," said Chef Alex Guarnaschelli. "And as a chef, home cook and mother, I never want to compromise taste as I create recipes - and I don't have to when I use I Can't Believe It's Not Butter! It tastes great and performs really well in a number of recipes, including sautéing and baking."
The new campaign also supports the launch of two new I Can't Believe It's Not Butter! varieties, making it easier than ever to infuse fresh butter taste into foods without compromise:
- New I Can't Believe It's Not Butter! Spray made with Extra Virgin Olive Oil is a perfect topping for chicken and vegetables.
- New I Can't Believe It's Not Butter! Whipped & Creamy Taste has a creamy texture and tastes indulgent.

(1) According to a new taste test.
(2) I Can't Believe It's Not Butter! 58 percent vegetable oil spread contains 8 g of fat (2 g sat. fat, zero g trans fat) and 70 calories per serving.
