- Hazard warning lights on A83 for Rest and Be Thankful
I'd like to suggest that Transport Scotland invest in one more wig-wag sign warning of potential trouble on the Rest & be Thankful, to be sited at the entrance to the Holyrood parliament, as a reminder to our dear MSPs of what's going on in the real world.
- Gordon Brown to stand down from Westminster at General Election
MM – if you're referring to what I suspect you are, quite apart from any connection with Gordon Brown and the British government there were press reports of paedophile rings in Portugal that stretched to the very top of the government.
Down the years since the tragic incident in the Algarve the British press – to my recollection – have never really suggested any connection, but I've always wondered – and the current investigation in Britain into suspicions of paedophilia, including murder, amongst the 'great and the good' of the British establishment makes me wonder even more.

I was referring to your qualities (or lack thereof), wee fat guy.
- Open minded new Transport Minister offers hope to Coastguard SOS campaign
There could be an analogy with a BBC Radio 4 report today on the trials & tribulations of the Royal Bank of Scotland's computer system, whereby large numbers of back office specialist staff were 'let go' in the interests of efficiency, with the fairly rapid (predictable?) achievement of mainframe meltdown.
Heaven forbid there's meltdown in the Coastguard service – perhaps, like today's proposal from Ed Balls to allocate £1 billion of the banking fines to rescue the NHS – the £56 million RBS fine for their computer crash should be allocated to the Coastguard..

Your intemperate rant.

OPP: Grandparents Over-Riding Parenting
by Slacker and Steve
posted Apr 23 2013 4:13PM
Today's OPP is from Amanda:
Yi! I'm fed up with my mother and father-in-law and I need some advice. My husband and I have a very specific way that we want to raise our kids and his parents constantly undermine us. If we're at grandma and grandpa's and we tell the kids they can't have sugar, grandma will say "grandparents are supposed to fill their grandkids with sugar and send them home," and then she sneaks them cookies. If we tell them they can't watch a TV show, grandpa will take them into the other room and we find them watching it. That's just a couple examples of the countless things they do. We've asked them to stop and respect our parenting decisions, but they have the mindset that they are just being how grandparents are supposed to be. What do I have to do to get them to stop?
Slacker thinks that maybe Amanda should stop taking her kids to see the grandparents until they can respect her parenting techniques. Steve says that this is always the way it has been and it's the right of grandparents to let their grandkids get away with more. Slacker also said that his parents do this to him. They feel like they have already raised 4 kids, so now they should get to enjoy the grandkids.
How does Amanda put an end to grandma & grandpa giving the kids everything they want?

From: Global Research
Israel has agreed to return organs of dead Palestinians harvested by its forensic pathologists during autopsies, Palestinian Civil Affairs Minister Hussein al-Sheikh told MaÆan news agency on Wednesday.
Head of IsraelÆs Abu Kabir forensic institute, Jehuda Hiss, had admitted harvesting organs from dead bodies without the permission of their families.
ōWe started to harvest corneas ģ Whatever was done was highly informal. No permission was asked from the family,ö Hiss said in an interview with an American academic in 2000. The interview was released in 2010 and part of it was aired by IsraelÆs Channel 2 TV.
The Channel 2 report said forensic experts harvested bones, corneas, heart valves and skin from dead Israeli soldiers, citizens, Palestinians and even foreign workers.
The Israeli army admitted to organ harvesting but said the practice was no longer performed. ōThis activity ended a decade ago and does not happen any longer,ö the military told Channel 2.
In the interview, Hiss described how his doctors would mask the removal of corneas from bodies. ōWeÆd glue the eyelid shut,ö he said. ōWe wouldnÆt take corneas from families we knew would open the eyelids,ö Associated Press reported.
The Palestinian official said Israel will ōsoon be returning some of the organs,ö MaÆan reported.

The Inclusive Society?
Social Exclusion and New Labour
Preview (read now) Add to my own site Give this ebook to a friend Add to my wishlist Author's page Publisher's page
A topical critical examination of the idea of social exclusion and the new political language of social cohesion, community, stakeholding and inclusion. The Inclusive Society? examines the actions and rhetoric of the Labour Party and Labour Government under Tony Blair's leadership. It identifies three different discourses of social exclusion. Using this model, it explores views of inclusion put forward by Will Hutton and other stakeholders, by communitarians including Etzioni and Gray, and by the Labour Party from the Borrie and the Commission on Social Justice to Blair and the Social Exclusion Unit.

I am so glad I found Odessa because she is my husband's great aunt. Her brother James O Hunter is my husband's grandfather and is buried at Mount Hope in Warm Springs. Odessa's mother Nancy is buried there too. Odessa is the 6th and last child of Nancy and Frank. Frank married his 2nd wife Ola Williams in 1894 and they had 5 children. I found her brother Abbie William Hunter buried at Flat Shoals too. If you don't mind I would like for you to transfer management of these two memorials to me. I am trying to connect all the family but I cannot find where her father Frank is buried nor his death date. If you can help with this I would be grateful

You are very welcome. Hopefully adding this third name will allow you to find more information regarding your relatives. There was, also, a James S. Dunn located at this same cemetery. I added a photo of it just in case they were related.
Glad to have helped you in you research.

New icon for Apple's Remote app spotted
For better or for worse, Apple in iOS 7 made over every single iOS icon. A few days ago, 9to5Mac reported that Apple's remote app might also be graced with an iOS 7-style aesthetic. Specifically, a reader found a redesigned icon lurking within the most recent iteration of iTunes.
It doesn't look too shabby.

Does your lunch just happen? Is it often a last-minute decision of where to eat and whether or not you want fries with your burger? If so, maybe it's time to show lunch a little more respect.
Experts agree--lunch is an important meal. Be sure to include foods with a mix of nutrients that will give you energy and keep you satisfied late into the afternoon, so you're not tempted by that high-calorie, high-fat snack later in the day.
A deluxe-type burger with regular french fries, a sugar-based soft drink, and an individual-sized apple pie amounts to nearly 1,200 calories and more than 60 grams of fat (the daily maximum of fat for most adults). But a turkey sandwich on whole-wheat bread with lettuce and tomato, a side of low-fat yogurt, an apple, and a diet soft drink has less than 550 calories and about 13 grams of fat. Be sure to watch out for spreads like mayonnaise. Just a tablespoon would nearly double the fat content of this lighter lunch. If you must have mayo, try a low-fat or fat-free variety.
The old deli standbys can be expensive and full of fat, sodium, and preservatives. If you are hooked on packaged lunch meat, look for the low-fat variety.
Virtually any kind of leftover meat makes good sandwich filler, or you can dice it and add it to a salad. Use an insulated lunch container to keep food cold and prevent spoilage.
Workplace microwave ovens let you bring that leftover lasagna, chili, or chicken stir-fry from the night before.
Hard-boiled eggs, cheese, tuna, yogurt, peanut butter and hummus are good substitutes for processed lunch meats. Keep in mind that peanut butter and hummus are high in fat, so use them sparingly. Swap your standard sandwich bread for a whole-grain pita pocket, a small bagel (or half of a large one), or whole-grain crackers and you'll never be bored.
Think mini carrot sticks; sliced red, orange, yellow, or green bell peppers; or raw broccoli, cauliflower, or celery for a refreshing crunch. Add apples, bananas, or grapes, or bring a container of sliced fruit and berries for an impromptu fruit salad. Then eat your lunch slowly and give your body time to release the enzymes that tell your brain when you've had enough.

Poorly performing websites, like Twitter's recent fiasco with Ellen's selfie, are a constant source of irritation for users. At first you think it's your computer, or maybe someone on your block is downloading the entire "Game of Thrones" series. But, when nothing changes after refreshing the page once or twice, you give up, mutter under your breath, and move on.
Whatever the reason for a website crashing or slowing down, it's bad for business and for your online reputation. According to a survey conducted by Consumer Affairs, a dissatisfied customer will tell between 9-15 people about their experience. And, if your website can't load fast enough (in 400 milliseconds), then most of your customers will search for another website.
Understanding how your website performs under pressure is extremely important for any company. But, it can be daunting trying to figure out what website performance indicators you should monitor.
We have compiled a list of the top seven website performance indicators we believe to be important. Make sure to track each of these to guarantee a great customer experience.
Top Seven Website Performance Indicators
1. Uptime
Monitoring the availability of your website is without a doubt the single most important part of website monitoring. Ideally, you should constantly check the uptime of your key pages from different locations around the world. Measure how many minutes your site is down over a period of two weeks or a month, and then express that as a percentage.
2. Initial Page Speed
Consumers' behavior and tolerance thresholds have changed. Now, people who browse a website expect it to load in a blink of an eye. If it doesn't load quickly, they will leave and turn to a competitor's site. You can check your website's speed using Ping requests (measuring the time it takes from your location until the website starts loading) and loading time measurements, for example, measuring the time it takes to download the source code of a web page. Note that this measurement reflects the time it takes for the raw page to load, but that isn't the complete user experience. For that, you must measure...
3. Full Page Load Time including images, videos, etc.
This performance indicator is usually called End User Experience testing. It's the amount of time it takes for all the images, videos, dynamically-loaded (AJAX) content, and everything else seen by the user to pop up on the their screen. This is different than the time it takes for the raw file to download to the device it's going to display on (as indicated above).
Both full page load time and page speed are important to measure because you can employ different strategies to optimize for both of them. Images, videos, and other static content can be cached on separate, dedicated systems or content delivery networks (CDNs), while dynamic content might need dedicated servers and fast databases. Knowing how your website behaves as it scales will help you put the right infrastructure in place.
4. Geographic Performance
If you are a globally active company or if you have consumers from different parts of the world, understanding your geographical performance - which is your website's speed and availability in different locations - is extremely important. Your ultimate goal is to make sure your website is easily accessible to all visitors regardless of their location to give them an excellent customer experience.
Many companies ignore this factor, only testing performance in familiar geographies. At a minimum, use your website analytics as a guide to put testing in place that shadows the locations from which your visitors are accessing your site.
5. Website Load Tolerance
Do you know how many visitors it takes to considerably slow down your website? It's an important indicator to understand because if you are running aggressive marketing campaigns or are picked up by the press you might be in a situation where your website is flooded with visitors in a matter of minutes.
Regularly run stress tests and compare the results to your visitor numbers at peak times. Once you understand how much load your website can handle then you can adjust your infrastructure to meet the demand. Look for those "tipping points" so you won't be caught by surprised when traffic spikes.
6. Web Server CPU Load
CPU usage is a common culprit in website failures. Too much processing bogs down absolutely everything on the server without much indication as to where the problem lies. You can prevent web server failures by monitoring CPU usage regularly. If you cannot install monitoring software on your web servers due to hosting arrangements or other constraints, consider running a script that publishes the values from available disk space and CPU load to a very simple html page.
7. Website Database Performance
Your database can be one of the most problematic parts of your website. A poorly optimized query, for example, can be the difference between a zippy site and an unusable one. It's important to monitor your database logs closely. Create alerts if the results contain certain error messages, or deliver results outside of expected norms. Use the built-in capabilities of the database to see which queries are taking the most time, and identify ways to optimize those through indices and other techniques. Most importantly, monitor the overall performance of the database to make sure it's not a bottleneck.
No Downtime = Happy Customers
If you can monitor all seven of these metrics, you should have a good idea of how your website performs and what needs to change when it doesn't perform well. Minimizing website downtime will keep your customers happy. If you have any questions on these metrics or load testing let me know.

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 ...

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...

It's a Lovebox thing: Kiesza interview
London's underground clubs are the best, Kiesza tells David Smyth — and Victoria Park is where to get wild this weekend
Published: 18 July 2014
Updated: 17:09, 18 July 2014
Kiesza came from Canada via New York to London for the clubbing but unfortunately hasn't had much luck so far. "I came here to get into the scene and go out to the underground clubs but the song blew up in a week so I never had that opportunity," she says of her debut single Hideaway, an instant number one upon its release in April. "Every club that I've been out to so far was one that I've been performing at." Curse you, highly successful dance-pop career!
At least the 25-year-old's new Shoreditch base is handy for her appearance at Hackney's Lovebox Festival, which starts today. The Victoria Park weekender has become a thriving spot for electronic music and hip hop over the past decade. If you can't move your feet here, you don't have feet.
Kiesza (sounds like "Kaiser") will fit right in there. When we meet in a Hoxton hotel she looks every inch the hipster dance diva in her striking get-up of extensively ripped, sleeveless denim jacket, mesh top, gold trainers and black trousers patterned with sheet music. Today's hairstyle, pushed up into a thick red mohawk, is the 15-minute version apparently. There are also 30-minute and one-hour editions. She's small, pale and beautiful, all smiles and hugs, happy to explain how an unlikely back story that involves ships, ballet and heavy weaponry led to serious chart action.
Musically, she was inspired by the Nineties dance sounds her mother played when she was small. Her new single, Giant in My Heart, continues the mix of house beats, retro synth sounds and her powerful falsetto. Elsewhere on her debut album, due in October, there are hip hop rhythms on the slower Losin' My Mind and late-night balladry on So Deep.
She covers Haddaway's 1993 hit What Is Love at her concerts, which fits well with her own material. "My sound definitely pays a lot of homage to the Nineties but not just the dance music. There's also breakbeats, R&B, the big ballads. It's that whole era infused with very modern sounds."
It's an improvement on the glitzy, high-energy EDM sound currently sweeping North America, she insists. "It's hard to dance to really fast music. All you can do is pump your fist to it and after a while you're going to have a seizure. There's some really great music coming from that scene but when you slow it down a little you start being able to move your whole body."
On the up: as well as her successful pop career Kiesza is writing an opera and designing her own boat (Picture: Matt Writtle) That's what brought her to London to launch her own songs — the success of dance acts such as Disclosure with a classier, less brash approach. "That deep-house sound was already popping over here. When I made Hideaway I felt that London was the place that would embrace it." And embrace it we did, its debut airing on Annie Mac's Radio 1 show quickly leading to airplay ubiquity.
And that's only one achievement of many. After an hour in her company, I'm left feeling like a pretty inferior specimen of humankind. She wrote and recorded Hideaway in roughly an hour before rushing to catch a plane. Prior to that she has been a student at the prestigious Berklee College of Music in Boston, a ballet dancer, a tall-ship sailor and a crack shot in the Royal Canadian Navy reserve.
As we wrap up and I ask her what else she's up to, she mentions that she's also composing an opera and designing her own boat. Suddenly my 25-metre swimming badge starts to look a little feeble. "When something really grabs me, I dive into it," she says with the bright-eyed enthusiasm of someone who has no intention of pausing to look at the scenery this far into her ascent.
She was born Kiesa Rae Ellestad and brought up in Calgary. "You're close to all this lush beauty, you have the mountains nearby, these rolling hills, every species of animal you can think of. You're really connected with nature. It's very active, so I'm definitely an outdoorsy person as a result." Before sailing, there was a potential ballet career, curtailed by a knee injury at 15. She followed her older brother into the Navy reserves at 16 and proved remarkably adept. "I just loved anything that had a challenge to it. I wanted to be that person running and climbing walls and ropes," she says.
She did codebreaking and, at one boot camp, found that she had the potential to be a sniper the first time she picked up a gun. "I ended up winning the top shot in my training camp. I enjoyed hitting the targets. It was fun." Didn't she think that the obvious eventual outcome of a Navy career, serious action, was pretty unappealing? "Not when I was 16! It just seemed so hardcore, it was really cool. When it really hit me that this was not just a game was when they put me in a war simulator. A whole room with screens all around, real weapons hooked up to lasers. It's a real war scenario with helicopters you have to shoot down, ships coming in and people. I was doing all this, thinking: 'They're preparing me for this for real. This is crazy, I can't do this any more.' "
She'd spent two years doing it part-time, and it took her two more to extricate herself fully from the system. It was perhaps an odd, regimented career for someone who talks so much of rule-breaking in her songwriting. "Yeah, and that's exactly why I didn't fit in," she says. "You cannot teach a person how to write songs. It's about being your own person and following your instincts. There are things you can learn, like there are certain jumps between notes that the ear likes, chords that sound happy or sad, but once you learn those rules you just keep breaking them anyway. That's what makes the ears prick up."
She also sailed on tall ships for fun, and taught herself the acoustic guitar on one long teenage voyage. She cut short a journey by sea from Canada to Japan when she reached Hawaii, after finding out that she'd got into music college. Initially she was writing folky songs, and also dabbled in rock, jazz, a covers group and even a death-metal band. Her intention was to be a pop songwriter for others, and she started getting invitations to songwriting "camps" organised by record companies, where established and newcomer writers are pushed together with producers to brainstorm the latest chart toppers. She says that one, possibly two, of her songs have been recorded by Rihanna but she won't know if they've made it to her next album until it's announced.
Meanwhile, she had been introduced to a Berklee graduate, producer Rami Samir Afuni, and started travelling to New York to make her own music with him. There she discovered the fertile club scene. "Rami is a creative genius. The first time I heard his music, I thought, 'This is the guy.' I would skip class to go and write with him."
Now their first song's hit status is creating demand for her high-energy show all over the world. There's still time for her current passion, the Brazilian martial art capoeira, however. Her New York instructor trains her via Skype now that she's here. She has been given a capoeira name, which is something of an honour. It's Emilia, after a redheaded Brazilian cartoon character, though her stage name, with the "z" that she added when she was 12, is a little cooler.
Capoeira has strong connections with music and dance, and she says all that sailing helps with her pop career too. "There's a community that forms on a boat that operates so in sync when it's right," she says. "You really learn how to work with people and adapt to a lifestyle that actually is very similar to the touring life."
So she's fully trained and ready for more hits to come. And if pop doesn't work out, there's always opera or boat design to fall back on. It's good to have options, and this high achiever with the high hair has plenty.
Kiesza plays today at Lovebox, Victoria Park, E9 (0844 844 0444, loveboxfestival.com); her new single, Giant in My Heart (Virgin EMI) is out on August 10.

Oracle Database Certifications Are No Longer Permanent
Not a great loss... (108 comments)
I am an Oracle Certified DBA, and I do not consider this a great loss.
For several reasons:
- My (then) employer paid for the certification
- I considered the certification test EASY. I had already been an Oracle DBA for about a year at the time (worked with Oracle products for about 5), and the test covered the stuff the manuals documented anyway. Anybody capable of digesting the Administrator's Manual should have no trouble on the test. The manuals were actually pretty good.
- The certification is tied to the Oracle RDBMS version number. So being certified on an older version is of limited value anyway. (I know: The base RDBMS doesn't really change that much, but they wrap all sorts of nonsense around it)
- Oracle is becoming increasingly irrelevant: MySQL (although now owned by Oracle too) takes the bottom end of the market share with ease, PostgreSQL the middle bit, and there are a lot fewer sales to be made at the high end.

- Pull grapes from stems and wash.
Crush grapes with a grape crusher. (This device has a turn crank and presses the grapes through two "rolling pins" effectively breaking the skin. You can rent one from most wine supply shops.) Add a quart or two of water to every 2-3 gallons of grapes and nring to a slow boil. Lower heat and simmer for around 15 minutes until skins are well separated from pulp. Use a strainer to separate juice from seeds, skin, and pulp. Then we bring to a boil, add sugar, put into quart jars and BWB. Juice made this way is a bit on the strong side, so we consider it a concentrate and add 2 parts water. The amount of sugar depends on how sweet the grapes are, but 4 cups per gallon of concentrate is a good starting point for concords.
