I see and read a lot of IT articles almost demanding that organizations must do certain things to ensure that some piece of their infrastructure is secure, highly available, fault tolerant, agile, flexible, scalable, recoverable, cloud'able, whatever the silo needs or face the dire circumstances. I'm guilty of it too over the years. Organizations must have a WAF for PCI compliance or Remote employees need to have an encrypted tunnels to the corporate network or any other command pertaining to the health of your infrastructure.
Life is a Journey, Faith is a Journey and by golly, Business is a Journey. IT is tasked with supporting the business objectives, so why not Infrastructure as a Journey? We've seen part of this journey play out over the last 5 years as organizations first tried to understand the cloud, it's various definitions/deployment models and the true business benefits. The cloud journey continues as more organizations test the waters, so to speak, and distribute their content over a hybrid infrastructure.
Workplace mobility is and continues to be a journey for many organizations. This started over 10 years ago with the first bricks, Palms and Blackberry's making their way into employees hands. iPhones and Androids later, VDI, MDM, MAM and a host of other infrastructure solutions have come along to help with the mobile BYOx journey.
Security has always been a journey. Assessing, managing and mitigating the risk to the business. Security is probably an area that gets the most insistence to do something. For years the ever popular Fear, Uncertainty and Doubt has been used to urge companies to protect something in a certain way. With all the media coverage of data breaches and the reported mistakes (intentional or not) made along the way, it is easy to jump on the 'you must do' bandwagon. But all companies are different.
Also, organizations might not be able to obey all the mandates and accomplish everything they must. They might have tight budgets, limited staff, different priorities, varying risk or other variables that could prevent complete infrastructure bliss. And over the next 5 years, there will probably be even more change that adds even greater hills and valleys to navigate. Just like life. I can also guarantee that your infrastructure will probably look nothing like it does today.
Your body's infrastructure is what keeps us humans going day to day and your IT infrastructure is what keeps the business going. The infrastructure journey to a high performance, flexible, agile, application focused fabric with the ability to apply services across that fabric and the tools to manage it, is just beginning.
I realize there is incredible pressure to do more with less and have it done yesterday on top of dealing with the daily fires. Much easier said than done, but if you can think of your infrastructure as a journey, it might help prioritize the needs of your business and see what forks in the road are approaching rather than scrambling when the big one hits.
Journeys can take you to some interesting places as you progress from one stage to another. You try stuff, make mistakes, learn and make adjustments to address those and hopefully come out better on the other side. Just always remember to exhale and smile when you get there.

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.

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...

(Please refer to the following article: Oracle 12c In-Memory Database is Out - Hardly Anybody Notices for update on Oracle 12c databases)
Contemporary large servers are routinely configured with 2TB of RAM. It is thus possible to fit an entire average size OLTP database in memory directly accessible by CPU. There is a long history of academic research on how to best utilize relatively abundant computer memory. This research is becoming increasingly relevant as databases serving business applications are heading towards memory centric design and implementation.
If you simply place Oracle RDBMS's files on Solid State Disk, or configure buffer cache (SGA) large enough to contain the whole database, Oracle will not magically become an IMDB database, nor it will perform much faster. In order to properly utilize memory, IMDB databases require purposely architected, configured, balanced and optimized hardware (CPU, RAM, Flash, busses, cluster interconnect), as well as RDBMS software written with RAM as center point in mind. IMDB's main premise is that data primarily resides in RAM and is only persisted to disk for protection and auxiliary functions. Data structures, methods and processes typically associated with an RDBMS (index types, join methods, data layout, internal data flows and processing) need to be (re)designed with RAM-centric axiom in mind.
There are a few fully functional IMDB products available on the market today. SAP Hana is one of the most recent additions to IMDB class of products.
SAP Hana is a hybrid row/columnar data store. It is designed under the assumption that the most of operations ( either OLTP or OLAP ) are reading ( as opposed to writing ) the data. Hana aspires to serve equally well both OLTP and OLAP workloads since it considers them similar in terms of workload characteristics.
Hana's row oriented tables are always in memory, while column tables are loaded to memory on demand. Column store data is dictionary encoded and compressed and thus more expensive (in terms of system resources) for inserts and updates than row store. In order to handle relatively demanding writes to column store, Hana's database memory is logically split into main store and delta store. Main store is optimized for reads and efficient memory consumption. Writes to columnar data are handled via delta storage which has basic compression level and is optimized for write. Cache Sensitive B+ tree (CSB+) used for faster search on delta. Delta and main store are merged automatically or manually. The need for delta store effectively halves size of database that Hana can handle since delta store must equal size of the main store.
While SAP Hana column store performance is in some cases is spectacular (aggregations over small number of columns), reconstruction of large rows is fairly slow because of the need to reconstruct rows.
It is possible to build clusters with dozens of nodes (SAP recently tested 100 node, 100 TB RAM cluster), where data is distributed across nodes.
In Hana's clustered, distributed database, all data is not directly accessible by a single CPU (only local RAM is directly addressable) which has negative performance implications.
There are other memory centric databases available on the market today - IBM Solid DB, Oracle Times Ten, Volt DB. We expect that major vendors like Oracle further modify their mainstream RDBMS to adjust to increased role of RAM and other types of memory in modern hardware.

Shania Twain and Frederic Thiebaud: Married!by Free Britney at . Comments
Just two weeks ago, we learned Shania Twain and Frederic Thiebaud were engaged. The engagement didn't last long ... they got hitched last night!
The country superstar and her companion of several years got married in Puerto Rico on New Year's Day, her rep confirmed to People this morning.
Shania Twain, who confirmed the engagement last month, became involved with Frederic Thiebaud after their original spouses had an affair.
Congratulations to the Thiebauds!
"Adjusting to life after separation and divorce, I needed to lean on others more often than I was accustomed to," Shania wrote to her fans online. These people have been gifts, and I am fortunate to have so many of these beautiful people."
"Talking about love, I'm excited to share some personal news - I'm in love! Frederic Nicolas Thiebaud has been a precious gift to me; a compassionate, understanding friend. Over time, an amazing love has blossomed from this friendship."
It sure has. We wish them both the best. In other New Year's wedding news, Valerie Bertinelli and Tom Vitale also made it official Saturday!
@shy: your alien language is hard to decode
Haha! Give them a year or two. Within no time, they will be fed up of each other. Americans do not know the meaning of true love. Their lives revolve around fucking and cheating.
Wishing u ol d best,u dizev 2 b happy-and if he is d one,then im happy too,ive bin a grt fun of yoz 4 yez nw. Congrats and happy nu yr

ive just uploaded joomla 1.5.3 (and then upgraded to 1.5.4) and the pictures dont show up. Usually there are scrolling/rotating pics of running, computers etc but they dont show up on my computer (or the ones at school)
However, trying it on two friends computers, the pictures show up fine. Are there some settings somewhere that need to be changed/adjusted?
Any ideas?

Christy Hemme
Real Name
Christina Hemme
Date of Birth
October 28, 1980
Place of Birth
When WWE abruptly had Seth Rollins turning on the Shield, they had to quickly put together things for his new character. The company came up with a new entrance theme song for him to use since it would not make sense for him to use the old one. Apparently, the song was not well received by management, so a new one has already been ordered for Rollins.

April 28, 2014
"Willow was my bad guy identity when Matt Hardy and I were running the OMEGA shows. I would be Jeff Hardy as the good guy and Willow would be the bad guy wrestling Matt across the indie circuit. It was an alter-ego back then, and now I had a chance to bring it back in TNA. I'm glad they gave me the chance to do it because it means the world to me to see how cool the promos have turned out and the vignettes leading up to the debut, and the entrance. The in-ring matches are still a work in progress for me, but it's fun to be that extension of myself, especially now at 36 years old on national TV." - Jeff Hardy discusses his new character on Impact Wrestling

March 9, 2014
There are some talks backstage that Christy Hemme could be doing a heel turn and aligning with Sam Shaw at TNA Lockdown 2014 during his match against Mr Anderson.

Stone can create an amazing tile floor
Updated On: Feb 06 2013 10:57:45 AM CST
By Sirena Rubinoff, Networx
Popular stone tiles usually includes marble or granite. However, we recommend you look into slate tiles because while marble or granite tiles can look elegant and quite beautiful, they also stain easily and can be slippery. Therefore, marble and granite use should be limited to low-traffic areas so that they have more of a chance of staying clean.
Slate flooring is not as slippery or easy to stain as other types of stone flooring due to its mildly rough surface and protective sealants.
Slate flooring is available in gray, black, green, red, orange, brown and blue and often has veins of color running through the tile.

COLLIER COUNTY, Fla. - Fourteen year old Jorge Saavedra will stay at the Collier County Juvenile Detention Center for the next 21 days. He's being charged with manslaughter in the bus stop stabbing death of 16-year-old Dylan Nuno. Brand new details from witnesses lay out exactly what they saw Monday.
Over at Nuno's house, where he lived with his father, there's a full driveway of cars. Nuno's aunt tells WINK News the pain is too new for them to talk about their loss yet.
Students from Palmetto Ridge High School still on the bus when the stabbing occurred say Nuno and Saavedra were talking about a fight before ever getting off the bus.
They say Nuno threw the first punch, and then believed Saavedra was hitting Nuno in the stomach, until they realized it was much more serious than that.
According to Saavedra's arrest report it reads "as Mr. Nuno fell to the ground he was heard saying something about being stabbed. Witnesses saw Mr. Saavedra run across the street and stoop down for a moment. As he stooped down he's seen with a knife and blood on his hands. At that time, the witnesses realized that Mr. Saavedra was not punching Mr. Nuno, Mr. Nuno was being stabbed."
After a foot chase, deputies caught Saavedra. The weapon deputies think he used to kill Nuno still has not been found at this time.
In the meantime, friends are taking to You Tube to remember their classmate.
The school district says deputies have been on campus Tuesday questioning students.
Saavedra, 14-years-old, is being charged with manslaughter. When the State Attorney's office gets this case, they will decide if he will be tried as an adult.

Snow bunnies- Windham easter egg hunts draws hundreds of area children
Siblings Katelin Ryan, 6, and Matthew Ryan, 8, showed off the fruits of their labor at Saturday's easter egg hunt in Windham. (APRIL GUILMET)
Sporting some stylish dinosaur face paint, Joseph Shumbert, 7, peaked inside one of his eggs, checking for treats. (APRIL GUILMET)
Despite a bit of snow on the ground and the need for warm winter coats, hats and boots, this year's Easter Egg Hunt, which was hosted by the Windham Recreation Department, was a smashing success.
Recreation Director Cheryl Haas said the event typically brings up to 500 children to the town center, and this year's egg hunt was no exception. Local scouting groups assisted in the filling and hiding of 4,400 plastic eggs, which were scattered in the yard surrounding the town's municipal complex to await their lucky recipients.

A monumental ban on incandescent bulbs went into effect today throughout the European Union, marking a significant milestone in policy regarding consumer habits as a way to combat our collective impact on climate change.
It's been long understood that compact fluorescent bulbs (CFLs) are significantly more energy efficient, and while there will be a roughly three year grace period to completely phase out those non-CFL bulbs that have already been fabricated from the market, according to the UK's Energy Saving Trust, this new ban could cut the average UK's household by 37 Pounds (approximately $60) and save 135 kg (approximately 298 lbs.) of CO2 emissions each year.
What is notable, however, isn't the potentially huge environmental impact this ban will have, but the large amount of resistance it is receiving.Click to continue reading »

ANAHEIM, Calif. -- While we've spent so much time this season paying attention to such hot young phenom pitchers as Colorado's Ubaldo Jimenez, Tampa Bay's David Price, Florida's Josh Johnson and even non-All-Star Stephen Strasburg, don't think we're going to let Arthur Rhodes' debut All-Star appearance pass without fanfare.
Rhodes, the Cincinnati set-up man?
You bet. At 40, Rhodes is the oldest All-Star "rookie" ever in the National League.
But don't expect the rest of the NL staff to assign him the task that usually goes to the rookie in the bullpen: Hauling the game's supply of candy, gum and sunflower seeds to the pen in a hot pink Barbie backpack (or something, maybe, in the Dora the Explorer line).
"I don't think that will happen," NL third baseman Scott Rolen, Rhodes' Reds teammate, says. "That could get ugly in a hurry."
"I don't think I want to make him do anything," says the Giants' two-time Cy Young winner, Tim Lincecum, who is just 26. "He's a tremendous guy. I grew up watching him with the Mariners.
"Plus, I kind of look like more the rookie, so I can't do any rookie hazing."
In all seriousness, Rhodes, humbled by the late-career honor, says he became emotional when Reds manager Dusty Baker informed him of the All-Star honor. Of course it turned into a moment Rhodes always will remember.
"Dusty called me into his office and told me I was getting traded," Rhodes says, smiling.
"He told me I got traded to the New York Mets," Rhodes says. "And Brandon Phillips came in and Dusty said he had been traded too, and then Scott Rolen came in and he said he had been traded, too.
"Then Dusty said, 'You're all three going to the All-Star Game.' I got quiet. I couldn't say a word. I said, 'Thank you very much.'
"I didn't know it would take this long. I know I could have made it in 2001 [when Rhodes went 8-0 with a 1.72 ERA in 71 appearances for the Mariners, no doubt with Seattle-native Lincecum watching each appearance].
"Now it's 2010, and I made it, and I'm so proud."
Rhodes earlier this year equaled a single-season record with 33 consecutive scoreless appearances, something accomplished before only by Mark Guthrie (2002 Mets) and Mike Myers (2000 Rockies). Over 41 appearances for Baker's Reds in 2010, Rhodes has compiled a 1.54 ERA and a 3-3 record.
He's taken a lot of ribbing about being the oldest player ever to make his first All-Star appearance, especially the day it became official, when the Reds were in Chicago.
"I got teased every day when we found out," he says. "Teammates, text messages ... I'm proud to be a rookie in the All-Star Game, I'll tell you right now. I'm happy I'm here. You can call me Old Man All-Star."
As for as the possibility of being the designated donkey to haul the candy, seeds and other goodies to the bullpen, Rhodes, 19 years and eight teams into his decorated career, smiles.
"I think I've got too many years to be carrying all that stuff," he says before, a few moments later, adding, "This is the best thing that's happened to me in my whole career."

The work of staff writer Kathy Glasgow took honors in two categories. Glasgow was awarded the top spot in Feature Writing for "Where the Girls Are," a glimpse into the lives of a group of transvestite prostitutes living in a neglected city park; "From Moscow to Miami," a story about several young Cuban scholars who had been sent by the Castro government to study in the Soviet Union and who came to the U.S. as refugees after the USSR dissolved; and "Power to the Parish," a profile of Father Jose Luis Menendez, a priest determined to help his Wynwood parishioners stand up to often unsympathetic Miami bureaucrats. Glasgow also earned second-place honors in the Continuing Coverage category, for her work dealing with homelessness in Dade.
Staff writer Steven Almond took first place in the Continuing Coverage category, for a series of stories about then-Miami Commissioner Miriam Alonso's unsuccessful bid for the mayorship. Also, Almond's work was recognized in the Feature Writing category, earning second place for his stories "By Appointment Only," a foray into the ranks of Miami's unique consular corps; "Aces of Clubs," which examined South Florida's sizable and often strange bridge-playing subculture; and "Winning Wasn't Everything," the chronicle of the rise and fall of a Miami Beach attorney named Jim Dougherty, whose activities attracted the attention of federal and state investigators.
New Times art director Brian Stauffer's efforts garnered him a first-place award for Feature Page Layout, and the paper as a whole received a second place in the Special Section division, for the 1994 "Best of Miami" issue.
