Cloud Computing
As government agencies work to become more agile, efficient and cost-effective, cloud adoption has become an increasingly important part of the federal IT agenda — and rightfully so. Cloud computing has the power to transform the way the government does business and the way it delivers services to the American people despite resource constraints.
In fact, research by IDC Government Insights shows that by 2018, the government will decrease traditional IT spending by 15 percent and redirect spending to the cloud.
Despite the need to rapidly provision cloud service technologies, the public sector's adoption of cloud computing has been slowed by questions about acquisition policy, financial management, service-level agreements (SLAs) and IT sprawl. Cloud brokers, which act as intermediaries between the buyers of a cloud computing service and the sellers of that service, are emerging as the key to delivering secure, efficient, cost-effective cloud and IT services to the U.S. public sector.
Cloud brokers can help the government reduce costs, manage IT sprawl and use resources in a more efficient manner — all while providing the best value to taxpayers.
Cloud brokers can help manage the acquisition process by giving government agencies access to multiple cloud vendors through one contract vehicle or through multiple drawdown accounts governed by business rules and policies that ensure compliance with the Antideficiency Act. A robust, broker-provided financial reporting and budgeting policy can remove acquisition barriers and allow for the timely provisioning of cloud or IT services.
Cloud brokers also enable agencies to search a catalog of available services based on specific, client-defined requirements to see what is available and then rate or score potentially applicable services based on criteria such as cost, security, geo-location and SLAs. The ability to dynamically shift workloads based on client-established criteria also helps to decrease costs — an important consideration for the government — and enable customers to use the services they need when they need them.
As acquisition barriers continue to inhibit the timely provisioning of cloud and IT services, government agencies are experiencing an increase in IT sprawl. Cloud brokers can help agencies decrease IT spending and sprawl by providing a single, comprehensive view of agencies' cloud-based assets, costs and SLAs.
Cloud brokers also enable flexible capacity by helping organizations securely manage the level of service they receive, as well as the cost. By moving toward a cloud model in which the broker manages the cloud process, the government also has the opportunity to free up the workforce to take on other projects.
Cloud brokers enable agencies to cost-effectively create a hybrid ecosystem through an IT environment that takes advantage of traditional, private, community and public cloud services. A combination of dynamic workload management, agency-defined policy engines, and rules and service management will enable agencies to control costs while meeting mission needs. In essence, by using a cloud broker, agencies will be able to better optimize their IT services.
As government agencies continue to consider the cloud acquisition and contracting process, the advantages of cloud brokers will become increasingly important in the strategic decision-making process. The more contracting officers understand the benefits and considerations for cloud and IT, the better the contracts will be written and managed — and the better the value will be for the government.

Glowing monkeys scamper toward a neon waterfall, and a knight bearing a radiant yellow lance rides past a bright orange octopus emerging from the ocean. What appears to be a time-traveling session gone awry is really the evolving environment within Putting Edge's indoor black-lit mini-golf course, which whisks players to deep seas, Aztec jungles, and medieval times. Since opening its original location in Canada, Putting Edge has now expanded to 17 North American locations, all of which invite guests onto its challenging 18-hole courses to seek victory over opponents and the forces that keep their teeth from not glowing as brightly as they could. Elsewhere, the facility houses private party rooms, concessions, and an arcade filled with gamer favorites such as air hockey.
In the winter, it looks as though an alien spacecraft has touched down at Links & Tees Golf Facility. Within this futuristic structure—actually an inflatable golf dome whose three layers trap heat—PGA professionals teach lessons and golfers practice their snow-clearing swings. This impressive indoor facility—along with an outdoor driving range that boasts more than 50 hitting stations, a 10,000-square foot putting green, and a 5,000-square foot chipping green—has repeatedly landed Links & Tees among Golf Range Magazine's Top 100 Golf Practice Facilities.
After warming up at the range, golfers can take to the tees and bentgrass fairways of a nine-hole executive course, where three ponds snatch up balls and a smattering of sand bunkers tempt hungry golfers to stop and dig for clams. They can also head for Putter's Peak, an 18-hole miniature-golf course where tiki statues line fairways, the rumble of a Lilliputian waterfall fills the air, and putters must venture into the dark depths of a cave. After either a miniature or executive round of golf, visitors can pull off the plate armor that protects against mis-aimed balls, put down their clubs, and pick up a hot dog or pizza at the 4,000-square-foot clubhouse.
Course at a Glance: * Nine-hole, par-27 course * Length of 1,709 yards * Course rating of 35.5 * Slope rating of 113 * Link to course layout
Several years ago, during a filming of WTTW's Wild Chicago, Novelty Golf & Games owner Craig's brother stood next to a 10-foot fiberglass chicken and lamented, "This is the world's loneliest chicken." Its match had recently been stolen, and every fiberglass fox in the city had a solid alibi.
Shortly after the taping, a viewer called in with a tip: he'd seen the missing hen roosting in a backyard, clearly visible from the window of the Brown Line train. Boarding the "L" himself, Craig confirmed the spotting, and soon enough, the Loneliest Chicken's counterpart was on its way back home in the bed of a pickup truck.
Thus reunited, the two chickens stand proudly today over the 36 mini-golf holes at Novelty Golf & Games, along with the full menagerie of bears, elephants, mermaids, circus seals, and dinosaurs that the course has accumulated over the years. Some of the attractions are as old as the course itself, including a 15-foot fiberglass shoe hand-built over a chicken-wire frame. While the statues are often replicated, Craig and his staff continue to design new obstacles the only way they know how, often sharing margaritas as they sketch their designs on cocktail napkins. "We change things," they say, "but not for the sake of change."
The course—celebrating its 65th anniversary—has always been a place of innovation. In the 1960s, Craig's mother opened an onsite restaurant and promoted the rabbit statue on the 14th hole to head doorman, earning the eatery its perennial nickname, "Bunny Hutch." Throughout the years, the family has also acquired popular games, including four pinball machines, Dance Dance Revolution, an authentic photo booth, and a 1950s metal-stamping machine. Though they welcome each new addition, they strive to maintain the course's classic appeal, insisting that "you can't improve on perfection."
On the same token, you can't just sit idly by when perfection flies the coop.
The Skatium Ice Arena offers public skating on most weekday mornings and during weekend afternoons and evenings. Check out the full calendar for a complete list of public skating times.

Connecting between Terminal 4 and 5Jan 27, 20152Hi, My wife is traveling from India to San Jose. and she has a connecting flight in JFK. She will be reaching at Terminal 4 and have to go to Terminal 5 to board the next flight. Let me know the procedure for the same. Thanks.TransitQueryTue, Jan 27She will arrive in Terminal 4, go through US Immigration, claim her bags, go through US Customs, then if she purchased her tickets together and her bags are tagged through to San Jose, she can re-check her bags at the transfer desk, otherwise she will have to take her bags with her. In T5 she will check her bag if she hasn't already, get her JetBlue boarding pass if she doesn't already have it, go through security and to her departure gate.ZAPTue, Jan 27She has booked her ticket together. So i assume she can checkin her bag in T4 itself. And will she have to come out of the airport for moving from T4 to T5, as am worried about the climate. If its within the airport then normal temperature would be maintained isn't it.VinTue, Jan 27
SFO to JFK to BrusselsJan 27, 20152We are flying from SFO arriving in JFK Terminal 7 at 3:40PM. Connecting flight from JFK Terminal 1 to Brussels Belgium at 5:55PM. We booked the flight from SFO to Brussels on Ebookers (so 1 ticket I guess). Is this enough time to transfer? Do we need to pass through customs again?JayTue, Jan 27Yes, that should be enough time. You will take the AirTrain from T7 to T1. You will have to go through security in T1. You will not have to go through customs as you do not go through US Customs when leaving the US. You will go through Schengen passport control when you get to Brussels.ZAPTue, Jan 27
Flying into terminal 4 leaving from terminal 5Jan 27, 20151I will fly into JFK with KLM and arrive at 3:40PM My next flight is at 7:14 PM from Terminal 5. Will I make it and do I take a train or a shuttle bus? Does this cost money and how much? Thanks!ADHTue, Jan 27
Terminal 4 to Terminal 1 - 1 hr 17 min layoverJan 27, 20154Hi, I'm flying from DFW to JFK then on to Paris, my flight from arrives at JFK at 2:48 pm in Terminal 4, the next one leaves Terminal 1 at 4:05 pm. Will I make it? Had no idea one has to go BACK through security just for a connection.MMETue, Jan 27That should be enough time. You have to go through security because you have to change terminals. if you would have flown Delta to Paris then you would not have to change terminals and go through security.ZAPTue, Jan 27Thanks. Yeah this is the only airport I've ever heard of such, every other one I've ever been to has a connection train between terminals that's inside security.MMETue, Jan 27Oh, and I actually am flying Delta, but the JFK to Paris leg is AirFrance, which I guess is a Delta partner.MMETue, Jan 27

SFO to JFK to CDGJan 26, 20152We are flying SFO to JFK arriving 5:27pm and then on a separate ticket (tour group) connecting to Air France for a 7:10pm flight. Do we need to go through security twice? Enough time? - if not, and we changed our flight to arrive at JFK 3:39pm - enough time? No checked luggage - just one carry on each. Thank you.SanFranMon, Jan 26You will go through security once in SFO and again in JFK since you will have to exit the secure area, take the AirTrain to T1, get your boarding passes (group tickets usually can't check in online) and then go through security. I think you will barely have enough time since you aren't plan on bringing checked bags. However, if you can move to the earlier flight I would do that. Delays at JFK are fairly common.ZAPMon, Jan 26
45mins Bos-JFK-YYZJan 26, 20152When reach JFK on AA flight and need to transfer within same T8 from gate 42 to 31D. Will 45mins be enough? Do we need to claim check-in luggage during the transit?

Thanks.;mikeMon, Jan 26Is your AA flight into JFK International or Domestic? That determines the procedure. I can't answer your questions without knowing that.ZAPMon, Jan 26OK, Yes, you will arrive in Terminal 8, go through US Immigration, claim your bags, go through US Customs, then re-check your bags at the transfer desk if they are tagged through to your final destination (if you bought all your tickets together they will be). Then you will exit T8, take the AirTrain one stop to T7 and go through security and to your departure gate.ZAPMon, Jan 26If you purchased two separate tickets you will have to take your bags on the AirTrain with you to T7.ZAPMon, Jan 26

Thanks!***Sat, Jan 24You will arrive in T1, go through US Immigration CLAIM YOUR BAGS, go through US customs, then re-check your bags at the transfer desk. YOU HAVE TO CLAIM YOUR BAGS TO GO THROUGH US CUSTOMS, even though they are tagged to LAX. Then you will take the AirTrain from T1 to T4 and go through security and to your departure gate.

Hi guys! I'm still here. Nothing new on the kitchen. DH's back gave out and I had to make him stop work for awhile so he could heal up. We were talking about the kitchen plans today if that counts! I think we're going to focus on finishing up the little stuff like trim and tile and wallpaper on the bedroom/bathroom side before we gut the kitchen/living room side... most likely we'll start that after the holidays are over. Thanks for checking on me! :) |

Glad you are here. Hoped DH's back is feeling strong soon. Enjoying restful holidays sounds like a great idea. I am hoping to be done by then, but I think there will be little things that carry on forever, and then of course there is creep- LOL |

Let's check in on our stats to find out where buyers are currently getting the biggest discounts off asking price. If you are a potential buyer, this will help you to know which neighborhoods may be softer in terms of sale price discounts off list price, and help you know where to look for potential bargains.
In the charts below, we have taken all sales data from the month of November in San Diego County and sorted it by city.
First, we compiled a list of every sale that took place in the month, calculating each sale's sale-to-list ratio (based on the final list price). Next, we simply take an average of every individual sale's sale-to-list ratio to calculate an entire area's sale-to-list ratio. Any sales that came in with a sale-to-list ratio above 150% or below 50% are excluded from the calculation, and areas with fewer than twenty sales are excluded from the top and bottom ten rankings. Interested readers may download the full data summary in Excel format (xls).
Here are the top ten areas with the largest overall discount:
Only six cities had sale prices below the final list prices on average (and just barely in Fallbrook, which was basically dead even). The overall discount held steady from our last update (based on August sales) at -0.7%.
Here are the ten areas with the smallest discounts:
You may notice that the top of the bottom list is the same as the bottom of the top list. That is because only 19 areas met our 20 sales minimum threshold to be ranked in the charts this month. In the 19 areas we ranked, the median discount was -0.6%.
Is the area you're shopping not on either the top 10 or bottom 10? No problem, just download the full rankings in Excel format and check out the appropriate "Full" sheet.
Of the 2,648 sales we tracked in the 1-month period, 438 homes sold for 5% or more off the asking price, while 594 homes sold for 5% or more above the asking price.

Contemporary Paving Ideas
As our busy lifestyles dictate our tastes in home decor, trends move towards cleaner, less fussy materials in our homes with smooth, uncluttered surfaces and simple, elegant lines. Our gardens become a continuation of our homes and as such, need to follow the same simplicity of design. Materials include exquisite detail, yet subtle, understated colour variations to provide a calming influence to help us unwind and relax in addition to strong, dark, sultry shades to make a bold statement using contrasting planting shades. Examples of paving styles suited to a contemporary theme including smooth and sawn sandstone, granite, yorkstone, quartzite and new modern polished concrete products with terrazzo styling. Clean and crisp lines and either subtle colour variations suited to simple, elegant design or strong statement colours are key attributes in this range of paving styles. Larger paving flags are often used to create an uncluttered appearance and sawn, straight edges amplify the simplicity and understated design influences.
New Contemporary Paving Styles
This year has seen the introduction of several new contemporary styled paving products including some new materials including gneiss and quartzite. These more unusual stone types add a unique quality to your paving by offering something just a little different.
To look at our entire range of contemporary style paving click here, or click on your favourite picture from the small selection of our range below to find out more.

Stonemarket Indigenous Stone - British Yorkstone Westmoor Crest colour. Smooth, attractive finish, Available in single sizes |
Stonemarket Cordara - Sawn Sandstone Iberian Oak colour with specially created wood effect finish |
Smooth, Sawn Sandstone Paving
Smooth, sawn sandstone paving is used extensively in the design of clean, crisp contemporary styled gardens as its neutral colour pallet with soft, subtle hue variations blends seamlessly with other natural materials such as the rich mahogany tones of hardwood decking and the smooth tactile texture of tumbled, sea-worn pebbles. The matt, often slightly textured surface of the sandstone does not attempt to compete with other bolder features within the design; preferring to simply form an elegant back-drop to the garden.

Smooth, sawn sandstone paving is generally available in neutral shades of cream and soft beige, peach and warm brown and silver to mid greys. The surface is smooth and level and often includes a sand-blasted finish to increase non-slip properties.
Smooth, Sawn Limestone Paving
Limestone is has an interesting mottled texture and is available in light grey to buff shades and dark grey to black shades. Although it has a flat surface, the finish is usually gently textured to aid slip resistance. Limestone offers less colour variation than sandstone and is a popular choice when looking for a gentle colour palette.
The following images show examples of the sawn limestone products available.

Granite Paving
Granite paving is known for its strength and hard-wearing properties and has been used for many years as a core product in commercial applications requiring a paving product offering longevity and durability. For this reason, granite paving has often been overlooked as an attractive product in the domestic market and yet it has far more to offer than just its robust, hard-wearing qualities. Granite is an igneous stone formed as a result of volcanic activity and its structure is therefore very consistent with a speckled colouring. The speckles are usually formed from a variety of minerals, but also include a range of crystallised minerals giving the stone a sparkle.
To look at our entire range of granite paving click here, or click on your favourite picture to find out more.
Stonemarket Arctic Granite - Glacier Lightly flecked silver & grey |
Marshalls Eclipse Granite - Graphite Choice of three shades |
Paving Superstore Pro Range - China Black Basalt (similar to granite with fewer crystals) |
Brett Granite - Graphite Grey Linear Planks |
Strata Granite - Volterra Mixed size packs |
Global Stone Granite - Graphite Single size options |
The uniformity of colour within granite paving appeals to many seeking a stone suitable for a contemporary scheme. Granite paving is generally available in silver to dark greys and almost black (often known as basalt). Other colours include pink and beige. The surface is level, but textured to make it an ideal option around swimming pools or other areas where a non-slip surface is essential.
Terrazzo Paving & Other Manmade Contemporary Style
Terrazzo paving is a form of polished concrete stone and in many cases, includes real stone chippings of marble of granite in the surface layer. Traditionally, terrazzo style paving was created by Venetian stoneworkers who would use leftover marble stone chippings from large palaces and homes and embed them in the clay around their own homes. They would polish the stone until it became smooth. These days, terrazzo paving styles are manufactured in a range of black, grey, white, cream, beige and chocolate brown shades to offer a very cool and sophisticated look to your garden. They are generally available in both smooth and textured finishes.
Other manmade options offer contemporary style without the colour variation seen in the natural stone equivalent. The manmade flags are often coated with special treatments to make the paving easy to clean.

At first this endless (gazillions!) store of equipment is dizzying, and you'll likely spend a good few hours trying out different combinations of weapons and elemental effects before getting any kind of grip on the game's possibilities, and another few before you develop a sense of which particular combination suits you best.
After this period of experimentation it'll take a major item drop, usually a quest reward or the spoils of a successful boss battle, to change your loadout beyond iterative upgrades. And this becomes the de facto narrative path of the game, unless you're really paying extra attention - not how you and Roland are going to beat Handsome Jack and save the world, but how you're going to get your next purple item, and which gibbering bandits are you going to try it out on first?
Borderlands 2 is, in other words, pretty grindy. If you're playing it alone, the meaninglessness of the long-haul travel and painfully gradual kit improvement wears quickly in the absence of a binding, driving story. Which further explains the game's enthusiasm for having you play with others, an enthusiasm happily matched by a straightforward Burnout-style invite system that enables you tosee friends playing the gameand to drop in to their sessions seamlessly.
There's a real benefit to playing together, making co-op pretty essential...
The benefits of actually playing together are also significant. Hewing through waves of tooled-up grunts and big-toothed wildlife is always more fun when you have someone to chat to, and the classes are designed to work together - everything's easier with a Commando to heal the group, a Siren to deal damage, and an Assassin to have a stupid bloody name (the Gunzerker is good for being shot). It means a lot less waiting behind a rock for your shield to recharge, and more killing stuff and (competitively racing to be the first to collect the) loot.
Enemy difficultly scales up when you're playing with a group, and so does the value of their item drops. That provides a double incentive to play together - and play repeatedly - if you're serious about finding the one triple-barreled shotgun that fires electrifying shells and explodes on reload. The only problem is if you ever pause to wonder what end-goal you're racing towards. Better guns, bigger shields, more inventive and Willy Wonka-esque grenades - all well and good. But what are they for, past defeating the big bad guy who'll barely appear in your thoughts for the majority of your play time? It's the same problem Skyrim's story faced, to an extent.
There's no easy answer to this thought, and once it appears there'll likely be a struggle in your mind between this looming pointlessness and the urgent, nagging gratification of opening boxes and finding things inside that you like. The good news is that Borderlands 2 has enough to it that the boxes win out, at least for long enough to make playing the game worthwhile. It isn't just a string of numbers - there's a character and playfulness to the world that fleshes out the underlying mechanics and gives it a twisted charm. And, if nothing else, that makes it a place you're happy to spend your time.
Light on story and heavy on guns. Borderlands 2 is saved from XP strip-mining by a sharp sense of humour and a slick, destructive multiplayer.
- Lots and lots and lots of guns
- Utterly compelling, can't-stop-yourself loot collecting
- Great world, backed by some razor-sharp wit
- Co-op is laser-focused and smart
- Story never feels like it's driving the game
- Easy to get ground down by the grind

Continue Gold Rush Orange Line South of Morehead
Effective March 2, 2009, the Charlotte Area Transit System is discontinuing service south of Morehead street for the Gold Rush Orange line. This will have a huge impact on uptown Charlotte professionals that park in the many lots located south of Morehead. Let's sign a petition and forward to C.A.T.S. to see if we can get this service restored.

I have a barn that was overrun with birds.
There is a large amount of bird doo everywhere. The biggest offender was the pigeons. I looked for the natural approach, which is a bird scaring device. It worked for all the birds except for these black type birds, I think they are starlings. They are stuffing my eves with nesting material, I blocked off major access but they will not quit. I can barely work in the barn now, as my asthma is bad. I am looking at a pellet gun and want to shoot them.
Follow-Up Postings:
The only bird in the USA that is not a protected species is the Common Crow. Shooting any other species of bird is a violation of federal and probably your state laws, and surprisingly Starlings are included in the protected species even though they are not native birds. If you are in an urban area discharging a firearm may also be illegal. Maybe you could get a special license to control these pigeons, but that is not too likely and would be very costly anyway. Look around for deterents to their roosting. |
I don't know if a pellet gun would be an effective way of controlling them, but - "Pigeon, European Starling, or House Sparrow: Your state does not prohibit killing pigeons, if you are within Chicago city limits you might want to make a call to be sure you are within your homeowners rights. |
Here is a link that might be useful: University Illinois Extension
theedudenator, If you do decide to go the pellet gun route, you will want an accurate one, because birds are relatively small targets. The Air Arms TX200 MkIII by Air Arms is well thought of and has a lot of favorable reviews. There are, of course, other good air guns that cost less, and some cost more. In any case, you should comply with all local, state, and federal laws. ZM |
My dad was one of those people that if you shot it you ate it. Bird for Sunday dinner:)) |

You can try "Bird Spider" The Bird Spider 8' 4-Foot Bird Spider http://www.gemplers.com/roosting-bird-repell |
We had a serious problem with crows and the starlings that come with them (sort of like little jackels following their larger black buddies). They would wipe out all our fruit trees by only taking one peck out of each, then tearing off new growth. We tried everything for years (owl dummies, old CDs hanging, bird netting the smaller trees). Nothing worked. Then three years ago we bought some outdoor speakers, ran the wire to our house where we hooked up a MP3 selection (on our computer) of various song birds and various hawk sound bytes and play it early in the morning and occasionally during the day when those black winged gangsters start their fly by. We have never lost any fruit since playing those bird songs and osprey/hawk calls. The good thing is the neighbours don't complain about it as it sounds like a garden full of song birds most of the time. Seems that crows and especially starlings do not like to come around where there is a large active bird population. This year we sacrificed our small orchard to see if NOT playing the sounds had any change. Needless to say, we lost all our cherries, plums, crab apples and much of our new growth on most of our trees. So playing bird sounds really works for us at least. A much more natural and safer alternative to gun warfare. |

I hadn't thought about that. Thanks for the tip! Bird netting is fine if the frame is big enough that the birds' beaks can't reach the plants through the mesh. I have one bird scare (not mine originally) that looks kind of like a colorful snake floating in the air (it hangs from a thin line). It may be working, or it may be that the place where it hangs isn't easily accessible or attractive to birds. |

When I transport my cacti, after I put it off till the pot is about to bust and roots coming out the bottom I went to home depot and told the guy what i needed i got some electrical gloves they are thick and padded inside and you have more movement with your hands also you can roll it up in a peace of cardboard if its (the cardboard) is to thick tear it down the center and wrap it around the needles and use some strong i call it masking tape just to help hold it on. its work well also I use the gloves on my large barrel cactus and it was a mess just to get out of the pot so here comes the thick cutting clippers to get it off the plant. always use clay pots. Hope this helps and always try it first and have someone to help you.

Jihadist ideologues call on Zawahiri to detail problems with former al Qaeda affiliate
A group of jihadist ideologues, including a sharia official in the Al Nusrah Front, have called on Ayman al Zawahiri to address the specific problems that the Islamic State of Iraq and Sham (ISIS) has caused inside Syria.
The message, which was obtained by The Long War Journal, is being disseminated on Twitter. A photo of Zawahiri next to a sealed envelope, shown above, as well as a hashtag are accompanying the message. Oren Adaki, a research associate and Arabic language specialist at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies, has provided a translation of the missive.
The ideologues argue that the infighting has led the jihad in Syria astray.
They continue: "And due to our keenness on this blessed jihad and so that it should lead to fealty along the lines that Allah desires and would be satisfied with, we ask our Sheikh, Dr. Ayman al Zawahiri - may Allah keep him - to speak that which is good for the jihad and the mujahideen about the current situation and specifically about what relates to ISIS before the announcement of the expansion and after it, and the issue of allegiances (bayat), and the disputed arbitration between the adversaries."
The three areas the ideologues ask Zawahiri to specifically address are all hot button issues in the dispute between ISIS and the other jihadist factions, including the Al Nusrah Front, al Qaeda's official branch in Syria.
In a previous message, al Qaeda's general command addressed the first issue, making it clear that the organization's most senior leaders had not been consulted before the Islamic State of Iraq decided to expand into Syria. Afterwards, the group was rebranded as ISIS and its leaders tried, unsuccessfully, to subsume the Al Nusrah Front under its command. The latest message implies that there may be more to the story, however.
The issue of ISIS' bayat (oath of allegiance) to Zawahiri has also been contentious. Al Nusrah Front officials have alleged that Abu Bakr al Baghdadi, the emir of ISIS, had sworn bayat to Zawahiri and, therefore, pledged to obey Zawahiri's orders. Al Baghdadi has repeatedly disobeyed Zawahiri's command. If it is true that he had sworn bayat, then al Baghdadi has violated the terms of his oath.
To date, Zawahiri has not spoken publicly on this issue despite its importance to the conflict between ISIS and Al Nusrah.
Finally, the message's signatories call on Zawahiri to discuss "the disputed arbitration between the adversaries." Multiple attempts have been made to mediate the differences between ISIS and other groups. ISIS has repeatedly refused, however, to submit itself to a common sharia (Islamic law) court. Al Qaeda's leaders and others have advocated for the establishment of such a court.
As part of the propaganda war between Al Nusrah and ISIS, Al Nusrah produced several videos featuring leading members of al Qaeda, all of whom said that ISIS had refused to settle its differences.
Signatories in Zawahiri's camp, but want more pointed criticism of ISIS
The signatories on the message are listed as: Dr. Tareq Abd Al Haleem, Dr. Hani Al Sibai, Dr. Iyad Quneibi, Dr. Abdallah Muhammad al Muhaysini, Sheikh Mohammad Al Hassam, and Dr. Sami al Uraydi.
Uraydi is a sharia official in the Al Nusrah Front. On his personal Twitter feed, he has tweeted and retweeted posts praising Zawahiri as the "sheikh of the mujahideen." Uraydi also reposted the latest message addressed to Zawahiri on his Twitter feed earlier today.
Quneibi is a preacher in Jordan whose sermons are commonly uploaded and linked to on Salafi jihadist pages, including those run by al Qaeda ideologues.
Sibai is a longtime member of the Egyptian Islamic Jihad (EIJ), a group run by Zawahiri that merged with Osama bin Laden's venture prior to 9/11. Sibai heads a jihadist media shop, Al Maqreze Center, that produces an online radio program. The message addressed to Zawahiri was posted on Al Maqreze's Twitter feed today.
Muhaysini is a popular, al Qaeda-linked Saudi cleric who relocated to Syria in late 2013. On Jan. 23, Muhaysini released a reconciliation initiative that was intended to bring ISIS back into the fold. ISIS rejected Muhaysini's proposal, which followed a message from Zawahiri, and was then disowned by al Qaeda's general command.
While the signatories are clearly in Zawahiri's camp, they appear to be unsatisfied with the al Qaeda master's messaging on Syria thus far. Zawahiri has discussed the infighting in mainly general terms and has avoided addressing the specific allegations being hurled back and forth.
For instance, in his recent statement eulogizing Abu Khalid al Suri, Zawahiri did not mention ISIS by name even though he criticized the group's practices. Al Suri served as Zawahiri's main representative in Syria and was also a founding member and senior leader in Ahrar al Sham, one of the leading groups in the Islamic Front, a coalition of several rebel groups. Al Suri was killed in a suicide attack on Feb. 23. The attackers were most likely dispatched by ISIS.
"The situation can no longer bear a delay, and it is no secret to anyone who follows the jihad in Syria," the signatories write in their message to Zawahiri, adding that their request is consistent with Islamic teachings.
They add: "We want from our Sheikh [Zawahiri] - may Allah keep him - to detail for us in a statement and direct us to what will make the matter clear and reveal it to us, for perhaps Allah is fit to advise him and direct him on the situation."
READER COMMENTS: "Jihadist ideologues call on Zawahiri to detail problems with former al Qaeda affiliate"
Posted by Anthony Celso at April 11, 2014 3:58 PM ET:
This is outstanding reporting and analysis. You and Bill are doing us an enormous national service in your account of the continued fragmentation of the Al Qaeda movement that is clearly in disarray and uncertain as to whom is to lead global jihad. It is abundantly clear that despite Zawahiri's considerable intellectual ability he is unable to direct such a fractured movement for his adherents are so swayed by religious passions and personal agendas they are impervious to reason. Syria is rapidly becoming an Al Qaeda graveyard. The bad news for the West and much of the Muslim World is despite their repeated failures Al Qaeda will continue their struggle for they are incapable of conceiving a world governed by "apostates" loyal to a mythical Zionist-Crusader" conspiracy.
Posted by Stephanie at April 12, 2014 4:35 PM ET:
Can someone tell me if Dr. Al-Zawahiri's conflict with ISIS is primarily insubordinance or is there another issue regarding their tactics that he disapproves of? (Such as he did with Zarqawi).

(FOXNEWS) -- Drug dealers are peddling a new marijuana product called Wax that looks and feels like lip balm and packs a kick equivalent to smoking 15-20 joints of weed.
Police in Roswell, Ga., discovered 80 grams of Wax during a recent drug bust. Roswell Police Officer Zachary Frommer told local reporters last week that the drug ring was selling the substance to high school students.
"It's just an extra kick," he said. "It gets 'em higher and it gets 'em higher faster. The 15-20 joints you smoke can equal a dose of the Wax."
The marijuana concentrate, also known as Butter and Honeycomb, has the consistency of lip balm and is easy to conceal in lip balm jars. It can be eaten or smoked, using a bong or an electronic cigarette.
It is made from the oils of marijuana plants and has a high level of THC -- the chemical that gets a user high.
Wax is also easy to make, but dangerous to handle.
"You're getting a lot of home cooks, a lot of teenagers and others that are trying to make it at home," Frommer said. "And because of the things you need to use to make it, because they're flammable and they're combustible and you may end up blowing up your house or burning yourself."
In April, DEA administrator Michele Leonhart told the House Appropriations Committee that abuse of Wax was increasing throughout the U.S.
"In 2013, the THC content of leaf marijuana averaged 14 percent, while the THC content of marijuana concentrates averaged 54 percent, with some samples reported as high as 99 percent," Leonhart said.
"Highly flammable butane gas is used to extract the THC from the marijuana leaf, and has resulted in home explosions, injuries, and deaths."

A Special CBI Court here on Friday convicted the former BJP president, Bangaru Laxman, of the charge of accepting money, to facilitate government contracts, from Tehelka journalists, who, posing as arms dealers, filmed him in a sting operation in 2001.
In his 155-page judgment, Special Judge Kanwaljeet Arora held Mr. Laxman guilty under Section 9 (taking gratification for exercise of personal influence with public servant) of the Prevention of Corruption Act, 1988, and directed that he be taken into judicial custody immediately.
Mr. Laxman will be produced in court on Saturday morning, when arguments on the quantum of sentence are heard. Section 9 provides for a minimum of six months and a maximum of five years in prison.
When counsel for Mr. Laxman pleaded that he be released on bail, Mr. Arora pointed out that the convict's bail bond was valid only till the conclusion of the trial.
The CBI had established the necessary ingredients of offence under Section 9, Mr. Arora said. On January 5, 2001, Bangaru Laxman "had accepted illegal gratification of Rs.1 lakh from Mathew Samuel, [who posed] as the chief liaison officer of M/S Westend International, and has further agreed to accept the balance amount (Rs.4 lakh) of illegal gratification in dollars as a motive or reward for exercise of personal influence on the public servants working with the Ministry of Defence," the judge said.
Mr. Laxman, who was made to stand in the dock while the judge pronounced the verdict, appeared shell-shocked. He spent a few minutes in the courtroom with his lawyers and supporters, before the police led him away to the court lock-up.
The court earlier dismissed Mr. Laxman's plea to make Tehelka an accused, observing that the journalists had "acted as whistle-blowers," though the method they had adopted was "objectionable." Laxman also accused the Congress of registering a "false case" against him. The FIR was filed in 2006.
"It was accused Bangaru Laxman, who, as president of the BJP, despite being not related to the process of procurement or evaluation of any such product for [the] Indian Army, did entertain the representatives of Westend International with the belief that theirs is an actual company dealing in HHTIs [hand-held thermal imagers], assured them that he will find out what [the] Defence Secretary thinks and thereafter told them that message has been passed and accepted [the] gratification," the court said.

General Comments
This I think is the best restaurant by far in the Amber Valley in Derbyshire. Its a real gem. The dog Inn is a great country pub keeping its olde world charm with woodburning stove and beams but with a modern twist.
The restaurant food here is exceptional with a good selection main courses. We've tried the chicken, steak with stilton, duck, and venison. All were delicious. The presentation of each course is a work of art (one of my friends took photos of everything, she was so impressed) and you will feel you are going to pay a fortune. Wrong! its about £20-25 per head for 3 courses. They also have set menu during the week, 3 courses for £20
If you want to try it book early. You need to book at least a couple of weeks in advance. Because they are so busy they have several sittings at weekends.
This place is a real find, you will not be disappointed.
