TORONTO, December 11 /PRNewswire/ -- On December 14 and 15, Andre Rieu will launch his World Stadium Concert Tour, "A Romantic Vienna Night", in Toronto. For this tour, Andre Rieu has had a full-scale copy of Schonbrunn - the Viennese castle - built. The set will be the largest one ever built for a tour show: 125 meters wide, 30 meters deep and 35 meters high.
For Andre Rieu, this is his dream come true. "In 2006, we played at the actual Schonbrunn in Vienna, the castle of Empress Sissi and Emperor Franz Joseph. The concert was a huge success, and the castle was the perfect background for the music we brought. However, not everyone had the opportunity to come to Vienna to see us play. For this reason, we developed the idea to bring Vienna to the rest of the world," says Andre Rieu.
Rieu is presenting "his" Schonbrunn castle complete with 2 ice rinks and a ballroom of over 300 m2. Neither effort nor expense have been spared: a ballroom will real golden chandeliers; a hand-painted ceiling; the original fountains rebuilt at full scale; 14 carriages with 36 horses from Vienna. It will take six days for the 100 stage designers to build the set.
And a set of such a scale evidently demands a host of artists. 250 artists are accompanying Rieu on his world tour, all dressed in lush romantic costumes, including The Platin Tenors, Carmen Monarcha, Carla Mafioletti, Mirusia Louwerse and Suzan Erens, among others. The maestro is especially proud that he will be accompanied by real Viennese artists. "I am very honored to be able to count on the world-famous ballet group of the Wiener Staatsopera. I couldn't ask for a more suitable ballet company," says Rieu, who also hired eighty debutants of the famous Viennese ballet school Elmayer.
"However, no matter how great and important the set may be, everything is there mainly to support the most important thing of all - the music. The stage must support the music, not the other way around." As always, the program consists of many waltzes, by Strauss, Lehar, and others, as well as romantic melodies taken from operas and musicals.
Concerts of the World Stadium Tour are already scheduled in Germany, the Netherlands, France, Belgium and Australia.

Apache Hadoop is emerging as a distributed platform for handling large and fast incoming streams of data.

By Carmen Gonzalez When it comes to the Internet of Things, hooking up will get you only so far. If you want customers to commit, you need to go beyond simply connecting products.

By Liz McMillan The IoT market is projected to be $1.9 trillion tidal wave that's bigger than the combined market for smartphones, tablets and PCs. While IoT is widely discussed, what not being talked about are the monetization opportunities that are created from ubiquitous connectivity and the ensuing avalanche of data. While we cannot foresee every service that the IoT will enable, we should future-proof operations by preparing to monetize them with extremely agile systems. Feb. 28, 2015 11:00 AM EST Reads: 1,147 |
By Carmen Gonzalez There's Big Data, then there's really Big Data from the Internet of Things. IoT is evolving to include many data possibilities like new types of event, log and network data.

Early IoT deployments are relying heavily on both the cloud and managed service providers to navigate these challenges.

By Carmen Gonzalez DevOps tends to focus on the relationship between Dev and Ops, putting an emphasis on the ops and application infrastructure. But that's changing with microservices architectures.

By Carmen Gonzalez The Internet of Things (IoT) is causing data centers to become radically decentralized and atomized within a new paradigm known as "fog computing." To support IoT applications, such as connected cars and smart grids, data centers' core functions will be decentralized out to the network's edges and endpoints (aka "fogs"). As this trend takes hold, Big Data analytics platforms will focus on high-volume log analysis (aka "logs") and rely heavily on cognitive-computing algorithms (aka "cogs") to make sense of it all.

Today's guest column comes via LGG&F reader Brielle Pritchard. Brielle spends her days putting her English degree to use by crafting stories and comics with characters of color in main roles.
As someone who has dealt with her fair share of MMORPGs and games with player created avatars, I've noticed a huge lack of real representation in the choices of avatars. You want to create an online version of yourself? Okay. Pick either a girl or boy base, make your skin one of the 5-8 shades available, pick one of the various hairstyles to choose from (unless you have natural hair then your options are even more limited). But do you want wings, horns, plushies? Go for it! Have tons of them! But what about the people who want an avatar exactly like them, along with the fancy stuff? Pumpkin Online may just be the MMORPG that they—and the rest of the world!—have been waiting for.

Without a doubt the NES Guitar gets the 'random post of the day award' (we don't actually issue that award). Apparently, this is the second iteration of the mod and it actually works. Flipping up the cartridge slot reveals the 3 knobs generally found on a guitar and the AV out and power ports have been converted accordingly.

Not sure if we'll be able to make the meet up this Saturday. Bernie injured his leg last week. We don't think it's anything serious because he still seems playful and runs around, but every once in awhile he'll start limping around for a few seconds. We're trying to keep him quiet, so I'm not sure if he'll be ready to play on Saturday or not.

Milwaukee Brewers' Corey Hart Had Successful Right Knee Surgery
Milwaukee Brewers right fielder Corey Hart had successful right knee surgery to repair a torn meniscus.
It was announced Monday Hart will miss the rest of spring training and the start of the season with a right knee injury. It will be the second consecutive year Hart will start the season on the disabled list. It should take approximately four weeks to heal which means he will not be ready when the Brewers open the season up against the defending World Series champion St. Louis Cardinals at Miller Park on April 6.
It is unfortunate for the Brewers because they wanted to give Hart time at first base in spring training in case call-up Mat Gamel does not pan out in replacing Prince Fielder. Manager Ron Roenicke has stated he will still be giving players opportunities at first so that he will have multiple options once the season starts if something were to go wrong.
Taylor Green and Brooks Conrad, two players fighting for spots on the 25-man roster, will be given time at first over the next few weeks. Also, Travis Ishikawa is another possibility to play the position and has emerged as quite the hitter after homering against the San Francisco Giants Monday night after he replaced Gamel in the lineup. Ishikawa mostly has experience playing in the outfield as he did for the Giants so he will also see time out there during spring training.
"It's not something that we're saying, 'You're a first baseman and we're going to experiment with you in the outfield; [Ishikawa's] played the outfield," Roenicke said. "So he'll play the outfield."
There is no doubt the Brewers have several talented players that can play different positions which will make things interesting once it is time to start making cuts.

As winter nears and the nights take on a chill, you may find yourself dreading the arrival of your energy bill. Driving that bill down, however, just requires taking a few steps to make your home more efficient. By spending a little now, you can keep yourself from losing a lot later when energy prices rise. The key is to look at your house as a system, from its exterior envelope in, and to prioritize the changes that will give the most return for the cash spent. Here is a step-by-step plan to winterize your home effectively. You may not be able to afford every step, but following them in order will give you the biggest payback for the expense.
Photo by Hemera Technologies
Start with the Basics
Regardless of the time of year and what upgrades you may be able to afford, getting rid of wasteful habits will cut your energy bill.
Here are five basic habits to adopt:
1. Don't leave lights on. Install a motion-sensing light switch if you have to.
2. Unplug chargers and appliances when not in use. If this is too much of a bother, there are power strips available that turn off automatically when applicances aren't in use. See our Energy Vampire Calculator to determine how much money you may be wasting now.
3. Make sure you're operating your TV for home use rather than for a display floor. If the screen is super bright, dim it down to a comfortable level. See "Power-Hungry Televisions" for more information.
4. When washing your hands or soaking pans in the kitchen, turn hot water taps up to full heat rather than halfway to ensure that the hot water gets to you quickly. If you turn the taps up only halfway, hot and cold water mix in the pipes, and as a result it takes much longer for the water to arrive at the temperature you want it. In the meantime, all you've done is warm up the pipes.
5. Line-dry your clothes. Clothes dryers are a major energy hog in the home (our Clothes Dryer Calculator will tell you how much yours uses). But if your home is well sealed and insulated, fabrics will dry quickly hanging on a rack or indoor line. Which leads us to our first step.
Step One: Arrange for a Home Energy Audit
A home energy audit will determine how efficient your house is and where you can make improvements. You may already know whether your furnace is working poorly, or you may be aware of drafts near your front door, but other major sources of heat loss are much harder to identify. Problems can include poorly insulated walls or cold flows from direct openings to the outdoors in your attic or other hard-to-access spaces. Certified raters will track these problems down and propose solutions. If you're going to be comprehensive about it, the $300 to $500 for a home energy audit is money well spent. Certified raters and contractors in your area can be found through listings at the Building Performance Institute and at the Residential Energy Services Network.
The energy audit will provide you with a HERS rating of your home. This index ranges from zero to over 150, with the standard home hitting about 100. While this number helps give you a sense of where your house stands, the real benefits come from the detective work done during the audit to trace exactly where your house is wasting energy. For any audit, make sure your rater walks through your home, conducts a blower door test (which measures how much air your home leaks), tests your ducts, checks out your furnace and identifies colds spots and the locations of air leaks.
To see how much specific upgrades suggested by the audit might save you, fill out the Home Energy Saver questionnaire provided by the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. The U.S. Department of Energy provides an online guide to home energy audits that is helpful whether you choose to do it yourself or hire a professional.
Innovations to the heating/cooling industries have inspired cost-effective and efficient methods to regulate temperatures.

Signing Reed Johnson Would Fill A Need In Chicago Cubs' Bench
The Chicago Cubs are in desperate need of hitters that can hit lefties at a decent clip.
The lineup doesn't have many threats against southpaws, so the Cubs might need to sign a free agent to solve that issue and in that sense, one that would be a great fit is the outfielder Reed Johnson.
Johnson was officially given a $150K buyout from the Atlanta Braves and he will become a free agent. Due to his solid and rare set of skills that he brings to the table, it wouldn't be strange to see a lot suitors knocking on his door.
The 36-year-old batted only .244/.311/.341 for the Braves this past season, but his numbers are considerably better against lefties, where he had a .291/.328/.345 slash line. He can also provide solid defense at the three outfield positions, so he might have a shot of making a roster with the right organization.
Although signing him wouldn't be for more than a bench spot, Johnson would be a solid free agent signing for this offseason. He's been with the organization before and he knows what it's like being a Cub, so he could even mentor the younger players who should start arriving from the minors this next season.
If signed, Johnson would return to the Cubs because he was traded in 2012 together with Paul Maholm on the deal that brought Aroldys Vizcaino to Chicago. This signing would be a cheap, solid move toward the Cubs' quest to respectability.
Which is exactly the kind of move this organization needs.

Malkin skates, but no timetable for return to Penguins
Penguins/NHL Videos
SUNRISE, Fla. — Center Evgeni Malkin skated by himself in Pittsburgh on Wednesday morning, Penguins coach Dan Bylsma said.
Malkin (concussion) had not taken the ice since he was injured Friday on a collision into the end zone boards at Consol Energy Center. He is on injured reserve retroactive to Saturday.
Bylsma described Malkin as symptom-free since Tuesday and said there is no timetable for other activity.
NHL protocol mandates Malkin must receive clearance from a physician or medical personnel with concussion training before returning to contact. He must pass a cognitive baseline test before receiving clearance to resume playing.
Malkin did not accompany the team on its three-game road trip that continues Thursday night at Carolina. The trip concludes Saturday night in Montreal.

Faithful Place
by Tana French (Goodreads Author)
by Tana French (Goodreads Author)
Tana French has done it again. Another intensely satisfying, thrilling murder mystery that I couldn't read fast enough. I can't believe that I guessed the killer correctly; I'm normally not able to do that. This story had the unique perspective of a detective forced to deal with members of his own family as possible murderers. The final scenes made for some heart-pounding drama. I can't wait for her next one!

I've spoiled things for myself by riding other FS bikes (most recently a SC Heckler) and the way the back end of my Prophet behaves is starting to bother me. I've used the stock Radium shock and I've been running a Factory CTD shock but even if I'm able to set the recommended amount of sag, I still feel like I blow through most of the travel even if I'm just crusing on tame xc trails.
Is there a solution to this or is it just part of the geometry design? Is a new shock the answer or will getting my shock custom valved solve anything?

A Treason of the Heart is an incredibly depressing book, the equivalent of Tom Wolfe's Bonfire of the Vanities. Both books share the distinction of featuring characters with little, if any, redeeming value. At least Wolfe's book is fiction. It is about British people who have taken up foreign causes – often in direct conflict with their own country.
It is an interesting book, but it isn't a lot of fun to read.

OpinionEast Ukraine crisis and the 'fascist' matrix Is the Russian leadership fomenting ideological links with some far-right European parties? 17 Apr 2014 09:51 GMT | Politics, France, Germany, Hungary, Poland Separatists have occupied administrative buildings in a number of regions in eastern Ukraine [EPA]About the Author Halya Coynash Halya Coynash a journalist and member of the Kharkiv Human Rights Group. Story highlightsUkraine's main far-right party, VO Svoboda, has been dumped by its erstwhile European ultra-nationalist allies. It was dumped for Russia with whom the most virulently anti-Semitic, anti-migrant and far-right parties in France, Hungary and other EU countries are developing close ties. The Kremlin's blossoming contacts with those parties, and the far-right roots of prominent pro-Russian activists in Ukraine do not deter Russia from claiming to be protecting Russian nationals from the anti-Semitic and fascist hordes who have allegedly seized control in Ukraine. The claims have been refuted countless times and attempts to use anti-Semitism condemned by the Chief Rabbi of Ukraine, prominent Jewish civic figures, academics and others. The UN's High Commissioner on Human Rights has rightly indicated that "misinformation, propaganda and incitement to hatred needUkraine's main far-right party, VO Svoboda, has been dumped by its erstwhile European ultra-nationalist allies. It was dumped for Russia with whom the most virulently anti-Semitic, anti-migrant and far-right parties in France, Hungary and other EU countries are developing close ties. The Kremlin's blossoming contacts with those parties, and the far-right roots of prominent pro-Russian activists in Ukraine do not deter Russia from claiming to be protecting Russian nationals from the anti-Semitic and fascist hordes who have allegedly seized control in Ukraine. The claims have been refuted countless times and attempts to use anti-Semitism condemned by the Chief Rabbi of Ukraine, prominent Jewish civic figures, academics and others. The UN's High Commissioner on Human Rights has rightly indicated that "misinformation, propaganda and incitement to hatred need to be urgently countered" but missed the point entirely about the source of it all. Who is fascist? Russia's propaganda machine, and especially Russian-language TV channels are feeding not only the Russian audience, but also a significant number of Ukrainians with lies and manipulated reports. Images of a Crimean rabbi forced to leave for Kiev after condemning Russian intervention are presented as showing a rabbi forced to leave Ukraine because of mounting anti-Semitism. Ukraine struggles to bring east under control In one astounding attempt to explain the denial by Ukrainian Jews of Russia's claims, viewers on the Kremlin-funded Russia Today were asked whether such Jewish organisations "are with their own hands bringing on a second Holocaust?" You have only to listen to those on the streets supporting the armed "federalists" in the Donetsk region to see that the propaganda works. The armed separatists and their supporters would tell journalists that they do not want to live in the same country with "fascists". It is no accident that the puppet government "elected" after armed Russian soldiers seized government buildings in the Crimea immediately closed down almost all Ukrainian media and gave the broadcasting frequencies to Russian channels. A number of the main actors in the pro-Russian protests in the Donetsk region have strong links with far-right parties. Pavel Gubarev, for example, is a Donetsk business owner and the head of the "People's Militia". On March 1, he was supposedly elected "people's governor" and led a crowd in storming the Donetsk regional administration building, demanding that a referendum be held on the oblast's secession and calling for Russian military intervention. His detention was presented by Russian TV channels as politically motivated persecution. They preferred not to delve into Gubarev's ideological roots as a member of the neo-Nazi Russian National Unity Party. Gubarev, and a number of other leading figures in the Donetsk federalist protests, are members of Natalya Vitrenko's Progressive Socialist Party. That party was singled out by Josef Zissels, head of the Euro-Asian Jewish Congress when he rejected Russian claims that the EuroMaidan protesters were anti-Semitic. He said that the Congress which monitors anti-Semitism and xenophobia had instead found a lot of anti-Semitic material on pro-Russian sites like that of the Progressive Socialist Party (PSP) aimed at inciting antagonism to EuroMaidan. The latter was presented as having been instigated by Jews. A rather small rally in Mykolaiv on April 6 declared another PSP supporter, Dmitry Nikonov, "people's governor", while two members - Alexander Kharytonov and Alexander Kravtsov - are leading figures in the Luhansk Guard, a major separatist organisation in the south-east. Kravtsov is also involved in organisations with neo-Nazi leanings. More can and has been said about the relatively small number of such pro-Russian activists. It should, however, be stressed that none was well-known or had any influence before the events which led to Russia's annexation of the Crimea. This changed on April 6 when administrative buildings in Donetsk, Luhansk and Kharkiv were seized, then most dramatically on April 13, with the deployment of armed militants noted by the US ambassador to Ukraine, Geoffrey Pyatt, as being "equipped with Russian weapons and the same uniforms as those worn by Russian forces that invaded Crimea". A public opinion survey carried out in the second half of March reported a majority in Ukraine favouring joining the EU and a majority in all regions believing that Crimea should remain a part of Ukraine in some manner. Another survey was undertaken by Civic Watch with the participation of the Democratic Initiatives Foundation, from March 16 to 30, with respondents from throughout Ukraine, including the Crimea. An absolutely majority - 89 percent - consider Ukraine to be their motherland. Only 8 percent support separatism. Even in Donbas (Donetsk and Luhansk regions) only 18 percent were in favour of it. Inside Story - Is Russia planning to destabilise Ukraine? The so-called referendum on March 16 on Crimea's future has not been recognised by the international community for many reasons, including the presence of armed Russian soldiers. The self-styled prime minister, Sergei Aksenov whose pro-Russian party gained a mere 4 percent of the votes at the last parliamentary elections, had previously gained notoriety for criminal connections rather than far-right views. Russian ties with Europe's far right The same cannot be said of those invited by Russia to "observe the referendum". The choice was clearly limited since Ukrainian and international election watchdogs had refused to recognise a "referendum". Those who turned up were Russia's far-right (or neo-Stalinist) allies. Russian TV channels reported the essentially full stamp of approval provided by this "team of international observers". These included at least two members of the radical right-wing populist Freedom Party of Austria: Aymeric Chauprade, adviser on international issues for the French National Front; Belgian Luc Michel, former neo-Nazi FANE member and now member of an extreme right party, as well as two compatriots from the far-right Vlaams Belang; two members of the Bulgarian far-right Ataka Party; Hungarian Bela Kovacs from the far-right Jobbik party, and others. Some of the above-mentioned and others are members of the Alliance of European National Movements which issued a statement on Ukraine that effectively drops its former ally, Ukraine's VO Svoboda Party and sides with Russia. The statement's anti-Semitic argumentation is well-worth reading given the constant Kremlin narrative about supposed Ukrainian anti-Semitism. Shekhovtsov reports that on April 9, Tamas Gaudi Nagy, MP from the far-right Jobbik party gave a three-minute speech against European democracy at the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe. He was wearing a t-shirt reading: "Crimea belongs to Russia; Transcarpathia [in Ukraine - HC] belongs to Hungary." It is worth recalling that Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union once signed a collaboration pact which involved a similar carving up of Poland. Besides Jobbik, Russia is also cultivating relations with Marine Le Pen's French National Front and other far-right movements. Strong showing by these parties in the upcoming May European Parliament elections will presumably add other voices, like Nagy's, in support for Moscow's annexation of a part of Ukraine. In a recent study, the Political Capital Institute suggests that there are ideological links between some far-right European parties and the current Russian leadership. Russia, it says, has under Vladimir Putin, set its sights on the restoration of the country's status as a world power. Far-right and other parties seeking to undermine European unity and taking an anti-Western line are presumably to play a role in its fulfilment of Russia's imperialist aspirations. So, too, are the references to "fascists" used as an attempt to justify Ukraine's dismemberment. The world has been here before, and the price for collaborating with fascists and for failure to react to clear danger proved tragically high.

Hey! ive gone flying many times! make sure you bring some things to do on the plane but don't over pack. hope you have fun!
by taylorswiftfan1236 on 3/12/2011 9:25:38 AM
Flying is totally ok, I have been flying since I was practically born!! In your carry on, be sure to pack fresh underwear and maybe a shirt and sweatpants, just in case your luggage gets lost (chances are very rare, but it happened to me once). If you have contacts, BRING A CASE AND SOLUTION. Also, don't bring any liquids over three oz. into the airport (like from your car), because you will have to throw it away when you go through security. BUt you can by stuff past security that is over 3 oz. that you can bring on the plane. And, bring some really good gum, it keeps your ears from popping and nice to have if you get bored and want to do something with your mouth. (just don't smack) Flying is fun, so don't be scared!!
