Piping Plovers and Least Terns of
the Great Plains and Nearby
A draft protocol for assessing piping plover reproductive success
on Great Plains alkali lakes
breeding (or nesting) density:
number of breeding pairs per unit area (usually, per km²); may be based on total wetland area or on arbitrary breeding site boundaries such as section or quarter-section lines that might encompass some upland habitat.
breeding pair:
two adult piping plovers that exhibit bonding through sexual behavior, defend a breeding territory for >2 wk against other adult plovers, and have a scrape that is at least one third lined with tiny pebbles. A lone adult plover on a nest or with chicks also is considered a breeding pair, whereas an otherwise lone, territorial adult, such as a male doing courtship flights, is not. During an annual population census or similar count, what appear to be breeding pairs may be labeled simply as "pairs" in lieu of more specific evidence.
breeding site:
usually an individual alkali lake, but sometimes a complex of lakes and ponds in close proximity (<1 km apart) or a discrete part of a large (>5 km²) lake, where plover breeding has been recorded. The site is usually identified in state, provincial, and other databases by a consistently used name (e.g., Big Quill Lake, Lake Williams).
breeding territory:
area defended by a breeding pair of plovers, size highly variable, e.g., average 27,000-31,000 m² at Big Quill Lake, Saskatchewan (Whyte 1985), to 500 m² at relatively high local densities at Williams Preserve in central North Dakota (B. Root, unpubl data); changes through breeding season.
chick success:
proportion of hatched eggs that produce fledglings (if Mayfield chick success, either each chick or each brood of chicks is the sampling unit interest; see I, Reporting measures of reproductive success).
egg success:
proportion of eggs that hatch.
exposure days:
time (days) that a clutch of eggs under observation is vulnerable to loss (e.g., from predation or weather).
fledgling or fledged chicks:
technically, juvenile plovers capable of sustained (>15 m) flight, which on alkali lakes first occurs at 21-28 days (Pridiville Gaines and Ryan 1988). To minimize methodological biases when assessing reproductive success (see D, Nesting chronology: initiation, hatching, and fledging dates), defined here as juveniles 18-20 days old.
fledging rate:
estimate of the mean number of flighted juveniles produced per breeding pair, based on total numbers of breeding pairs and 18- to 20-day-old chicks observed.
nest or nesting attempt:
a scrape that has ≥1 egg.
nest success:
proportion of nests that result in ≥1 hatched egg.
nonterritorial adult(s):
adult plovers that exhibit little or no territorial defense or evidence of pairbonding and that vocalize infrequently, such as at feeding sites such as spring seeps on alkali lakes.
pair success:
proportion of breeding pairs that successfully hatch eggs (Smith
et al.
1993) or fledge young (must specify), regardless of number of attempts.
reproductive success (or productivity):
general term for measures of fecundity; in birds, refers either to the quantity of (1) eggs, (2) nests with hatched eggs, (3) chicks, or (4) fledged young, whether based on total numbers of pairs, females, breeding-age adults, or successfully breeding birds. For piping plovers, fledging rate based on total breeding pairs is the most important and least biased measure of reproductive success.
depression dug mostly by male as part of courtship display. Several scrapes may be made within a breeding territory, but only one is selected for a nest site.

"Posh with high security"
First the BAD I heard some noise from the neighboring rooms like banging or stomping at odd hours intermittently. This continued until about 3am. I ordered room service, and it took an hour to finally show up. The yogurt was almost room temperature, and they never picked up the tray until 2pm the next day. I was also accidentally locked out of my room […] and this hotel has weird security. I couldn't get someone from the service desk to come to my room and let me in. I was without my shoes and socks, and I had to walk 7 flight of stairs down to level 5 to get a new card for my room. I washed my feet afterwards, but was mildly irrated by the whole ordeal. Accidents happen, especially when you are exhausted from travelling. The GOOD The staff was overly helpful, and made me stressed watching them fumble over me to get my room. The facilities were excellent, and I loved the rooftop pool and workout center. They had a Miranda restaurant, but I didn't use even though it looked very inviting to eat as the sun set. The staff agreed to watch my luggage since my flight wasn't for a few hours, and nothing disappeared from my suitcase not that I expected it to. In this day and age; however, you can never tell for sure. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Nice hotel close to the mall"
WonderfulGenuine Expedia guest review
"Nice hotel friendly people attached to the mall"
I recommend this hotel for friends and I will stay there again.Genuine Expedia guest review
It was nice because it was a very short stay in my room most of the time Iwas outGenuine Hotels.com guest review
Very nice stay overall. I did, however, upgrade for 2 nights so that I would get a free breakfast. However, the advertised breakfast time for the second night was not the same as reality. When i went to get breakfast, it was not open. I had to leave for airport and therefore missed breakfast. I wasted money because they did not have breakfast at advertised […] time Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"great stay"
Upon arrival, I was greeted and by bags were taken for me. The check-in almost turned sour. Omce I arrived at the front counter, the receptionist said for me to go to the 2nd floor and check in there. He changed his mind and helped me. The rooms were very comfortable. I was on the 23rd floor, the view was ok. Everything that I was expecting was excellent. […] The breakfast, internet connection, bed, cleanliness, hot water, it was all very good. The easy access to the Mall was great. The access to the metro was also a plus. I recommend taking the metro instead of a taxi. Cost to go to Dubai Mall from MOE was 13 Dhs as compared to 51 Dhs in taxi. the ride was quicker Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Great location if you want to shop"
The hotel is located in the Mall of the Emirates and so it is in a great location if you want to shop. The hotel is modern and the staff polite, friendly, and helpful. As an older person I had difficulty getting in and out of the tub/shower and figuring out how to use the shower.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Superb location. Great value"
Every thing was as expected, all on time, good quality, friendly and efficient staff. Though nothing was impressive or have gone the "extra mile", everything contributed to make it an excelent choice in every sense: comfort, location, value. Recommended for families or singles that prioritize shopping and don't want to juggle places for shopping. Those […] for whom the beach on premises is not a must would fit this location. If proximity to the airport is a concern, this is not on the top of your list as it takes about 20 to 30 minutes. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Can't wait to return."
We were delighted with our room, the people and conveniences at this lovely hotel. This was our first visit to this hotel and Dubai and we look forward to returning. Upgrading to the club turned out to be a good value for us. We appreciated the ability to meet with other guests in the comfortable club. Computers and office equipment to print boarding […] passes and keep us in touch with friends. Loved the convenience of public transportation attached to the mall for sight seeing in addition to the convenience of good shopping and Ski Dubai in the attached mall for entertainment.

My first time there in the country and it was awesome! everyone was nice and helpful, I was up graded to a larger suite they were running a special so that turn out good, you have to pay for each person that stays in the room with you.

Superb hotel in all ways ie service,cleanliness- little thoughtful added extras such as complimentary mouthwash! Staff couldn't do enough and were all cheerful and helpful. The security guard beside the Mall entrance made the hotel feel safe. It's in a good location being between the two main developments of the city. Lots to do in the Mall such as […] the indoor skiing, several restaurants with diverse menus and a cinema. The club lounge had lovely views for breakfast and the two small pools on the roof were more than adequate especially during the quiet weeks. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review

"Great hotel"

Nespresso coffee machine snd capsules in the room was a nice touch. Hop on - hop off bus as a stop at thd hotel which is very convenient.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Everything was excellent!"
Let me start by saying that in this day and age you'd expect a hotel to be great especially one with a synonymous name like The Sheraton. But let me tell you from the get go this hotel and more importantly it's staff went above and beyond! I am currently staying my last night in room 1510 and from start to almost finish I cannot find one single fault […] with the service and staff. I was checked in by a lovely lady named Savel (if she checks you in feel honoured as she is an absolute lovely!). She made me feel more than welcome, she made me feel special and wanted! I ordered a king size room but there wasn't one available for that night but the way she handled things and made a promise of a room change the very next day with a voucher for a complimentary drink and ice cream more than made up for the ever so slight mixup. Throughout my stay from the pool staff, to the reception staff straight through to housekeeping, restaurant staff and porters all impressed and made me feel right at home. (Which is an absolute bonus when travelling alone as I was). I really have to thank all the staff and also the management for hiring and training such and brilliant workforce! Thank you all for making my first (but definitely not last) stay at The Sheraton Dubai a fantastic and memorable one! Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

If Kylah wants to pull her man away from his DVDs and records, she better make it worth his while. She showed off her thick curvy body on cam and then deepthroated guy's cock to get him in the horny mood to fuck her hard and raw!
Some Hungarian dude sent a tape of his casual sex with a cash-hungry student. After he chatted Anastasia up, she took some cash to deepthroat his cock in the stairs, then showed her hot body before going down for a good hard fuck.
Brooke was house-sitting for some rich ppl in Miami, and had her boyfriend over to keep her company. After showing off her juicy booty, she rolled over to show him how she masturbates. Then guy finished Brooke off in the bedroom!
The bitches at the house party were all down to flash their tits. But one of them wanted more, she dragged a random bro into the bathroom to suck his cock. Even with a guy filming her getting fucked like a whore, Anya was super DTF.
Miko spotted this guy watching her try on her rainbow fur bikini and taking selfies of her tits. But instead of getting mad, Miko invited him into her bedroom to suck him off and let him stuff her Asian pussy full of cock!
Jayden didn't think she could handle a cock in her tight Asian ass, but she was down to let her man film her trying. Once they warmed up with a hard fuck, she found herself craving that raw anal sex and let her man pound that hole!
A little rain helped this guy convince a hot Hungarian babe on the street to follow him into a doorway and flash her tits. When he had Angel alone, dude got this hottie to jack his dick and pull down her G-string for a dirty fuck.
Get a load of this cutie jerking off her boyfriend's cock in broad daylight while she drove around! After she sucked him at the red-light they got so horny they had to race home so Brooklyn could get her latina pussy pounded.
Guy had the right idea cruising around the city looking for pussy. He found a doctor off-duty and hungry for dick. She let him drive her home, but on the way she took the pulse of his dick, then sucked him off like a a good euro slut.
After partying all night, Lilli and Mia headed out to the beach with Lilli's BF. Soon as those slutty broads hit the shore, they whipped their tits out and starting kissing, then they all jumped on the beach towel for a threesome!
This guy went over to Kimber's house to get get that cheating Slut to back-door her boyfriend. He hid in the closet filming while she sucked that rich loser off, then emerged to tap that juicy ass before her BF came back home.
Check this Euro sex tourism video clip of this bro gaming a Russian cook he found on the street into showing her tits for cash. Latoya got naked for the dude and then she let him fuck her in the pussy and ass like a cheap whore.
Crazy chick got stranded in her cosplay costume, but lucky thing dude was there to help. He gave brace-faced cutie Natalie a lift, so she sucked his cock while he drove, then let him tap her big sweet ass when he pulled over.

Strangers with Candy (2005)
Critics Consensus: Occasionally funny, but little more than a jumbled, overextended episode of the TV show. Still, Candy devotees won't be disappointed.

Movie Info
The cult-favorite television series which offered a fun-house version of '70s "after-school specials" returns in this big-screen prequel to the show Strangers With Candy. Middle-aged ex-prostitute, former drug addict and all-around lowlife Jerri Blank (Amy Sedaris) emerges from prison at the age of 46 ready to start her life over again. Jerri arrives at her parents' home to discover that her father Guy (Dan Hedaya) divorced Jerri's mom and remarried before slipping into a coma. Jerri's stepmom … More

All Critics (99) | Top Critics (34) | Fresh (51) | Rotten (47) | DVD (13)
Jerri may be a freshman here, but Sedaris, grotesque and fearless, is already lowbrow homecoming queen
The movie never makes good on its promise of unbridled humor, but nonetheless connects with enough stabs of parody to keep it mildly entertaining.
A bizarre mixture of streetwise raunch and starry-eyed ingenuousness.
What separates Strangers with Candy from other high school comedies, or from most mainstream comedies in general, is the cast's total dedication to their parts.
There's nothing sweet about this very strange character, Jerri, but you still can't wait to see what outrageous thing she'll do next.
After a bracingly funny beginning, the film gets bogged down in silly plot permutations and repetitive humor, which was more effective in half-hour television doses.
[R]eplicate[s] in a raunchy cartoon how the chaos of our experience correlates more than we may care to admit to the chaos of our personalities.
In spite of its demented flavor, the movie surprisingly doesn't push the envelope the way the series did.
It roars along with reckless abandon, skewering everything in its path.
... for the most part is not particularly funny.
Amy Sedaris suits up as everyone's favorite former-prostitute/drug addict-turned-high school student in the long-awaited--and quite funny--big-screen version of the cult TV series.
Clever and undeniably peculiar, Strangers with Candy suffers from both a complete lack of focus and a terminal case of self-satisfaction.
Connoisseurs of the show likely relish the induced awkwardness and off-kilter rhythms of the piece; a good part of its appeal was the blank and baffled looks it induced in the uninitiated.
A raunchy, subversive little satire about unlikely redemption.
Walks a fine line of comedic self-awareness, and only on occasion loses us in a haze of condescending wit.
Colbert steals scenes as Chuck Noblet . . . The cracked, sordid style of Strangers with Candy half-bewilders and half-appalls you into laughing.
Whether you guffaw, giggle or sit stone-faced through Strangers With Candy will depend on your reaction to Sedaris as Jerri and her freak show of over-the-top bad taste.
This plays like a 'Season One' DVD, silly moments interspersed with lots of dull plot and lame high-school send-up situations.
Like the classic comedies of Chaplin, Hawks and Woody Allen, Strangers With Candy is more than just a good subjective comedy -- it's a great objective film.
[T]here's demented, and then there's the plain sick and twisted tastlessness and hilarious audacity of this afterschool special gone horribly, wonderfully wrong.
Audience Reviews for Strangers with Candy
Hilarious in a Tracy Ulman kind of way...only better. I laughed often and heartily at this over-the-top, crazy comedy.
MoreSuper Reviewer
Strangers With Candy is a decent comedy. The film boasts a decent cast as well. Strangers With Candy has some laughs here and there, but as a good comedy, it never succeeds at being anything other than decent. I felt that the films weakness was that it tried to hard at making you laugh, for me a comedy should be effortless at making you laugh. Strangers With Candy is funny, but at times the jokes fall flat and are boring. The film does make you laugh, but by the films end, you realize that this film could have much better. There was a good cast of comedic talent at work here, and I'm actually quite surprised that this was the best they could do. The results are decent and there is nothing really great about the film. I thought that the film was fairly forgettable, and is the type of film that you need to see only once. This is not a film that demands repeated viewings. Stephen Colbert was the funniest aspect of this film, and he definitely made the film a bit more watchable. But like I said, the film is decent and has a few good laughs, but the film takes its time to build up, and keep the laughs moving along. This film had so much potential, however half the way it's very boring. Worth watching once, and you can forget about it, there's nothing really effective at work. This is simply a decent film that could have been much better than this.
MoreSuper Reviewer
Ewww...kay. This is a movie where a bunch of action I don't care about is held together by characters I really don't like. Amy Sedaris is a pretty good actress and more power to her for happily obliterating her natural beauty with frumy makeup, but the character she created isn't worth watching. She's boring, vain, flippantly cruel, self-centered and stupid. Every main character - the ones you're supposed to pay attention to - are all horrible people, and the only ones that aren't are only there to get treated like hell for comedic value. This just does not float my boat.
MoreSuper Reviewer
Funny and a good film to watch, Strangers With Candy, however presents a weak script, despire the great gags and the plot. Amy Sedaris, too, help a lot the sucess and the comedy of the film.

Stunning results from the weekend marafunners. Selbs, I am amazed, impressed and inspired that your dodgy legs got you through for such a great time. Jools, that is a step up of more than a couple of leagues. And TT I hope the life stuff resolves and you can put in more such great performances.
While on the whole elites are clearly waifs, the more interesting point about height is the number of significant deviations from the average. Obvious example that comes to mind is Tergat vs Haile, with only a fag paper between them in terms of performance but a head of height difference. Likewise wasn't Paula often head and shoulders taller than many she finished a mile ahead of?
Dan. You reminded me of a nice bike ride I had a few weeks ago. http://www.strava.com/activities/167193310 I need to get organised and do one of the Swiss ultras, although I suspect that cycling down the big hills is more fun than running down them. This was a surprisingly comfortable ride, speaking as a runner whose usual cycling is limited to slow 10k flat rides to work- I understand that runners have a fairly easy time adapting to cycling up hills, and less to fast rides on the flat. Currently training for a half, amongst other reasons as I dont want to commit to long runs over the summer.

Bed Scouring During the Release of an Ice Jam
Received: 4 December 2013 / Revised: 29 January 2014 / Accepted: 19 February 2014 / Published: 3 April 2014
(This article belongs to the Special Issue Selected Papers from the 13th Estuarine and Coastal Modeling Conference)
Download PDF [1853 KB, uploaded 3 April 2014]
Abstract: A model is developed for simulating changes in river bed morphology as a result of bed scouring during the release of an ice jam. The model couples a non-hydrostatic hydrodynamic model with the processes of erosion and deposition through a grid expansion technique. The actual movement of bed load is implemented by reconstructing the river bed in piecewise linear elements in order to bypass the limitations of the step-like approximation that the hydrodynamic model uses to capture the bed bathymetry. Initially, an ice jam is modeled as a rigid body of water near the free surface that constricts the flow. The ice jam does not exchange mass or momentum with the stream, but the ice body can have a realistic shape and offer resistance to the flow of water through the constriction. An ice jam release is modeled by suddenly enabling the ice to flow and exchange mass and momentum with the water. The resulting release resembles a dam break wave accelerating and causing flow velocities to rise rapidly. The model is used to simulate the 1984 ice jam in the St. Clair River, which is part of the Huron-Erie Corridor. The jam had a duration of 24 days, and its release was accompanied by high flow velocities. It is speculated that high flow velocities during the release of the jam caused scouring of the river bed. This led to an increase in the river's conveyance that is partly responsible for the persistence of low water levels in the upper Great Lakes. The simulations confirm that an event similar to the 1984 ice jam will indeed cause scouring of the St. Clair River bed.

Immune Prep is a new innovation from Country Life designed specifically to support your immune system everyday. Wellness is a concern for most people, and we all strive to support daily wellness. Overall wellness is about maintaining a balance of nutrition, stress management and physical fitness, whereas immune health specifically is an area that seems to be a great deal more ellusive.
Our bodies have two basic layers that make up our immune system. These two layers are the innate and the adaptive immune systems. The first layer, the innate immune system, is what can be referred to as cellular immunity, because this side of the immune system is made up of a collection of cells called NK cells (Natural Killer cells), macrophages, T-cells, monocytes and more.
The second layer of the immune system, the adaptive immune system, is a great deal more complicated. This part of the immune system keeps records of past issues and prepares the body for what may reoccur in the future.
Immune Prep is a combination of two main ingredients: A specialized, certified organic, 100% inner fillet Aloe Vera and a unique ingredient called Lactobacillus rhamnosus lysate, which is derived from the probiotic Lactobacillus rhamnosus. The unique combination of these two main ingredients provides daily support of the immune system.
The specialized Aloe vera used in this formulation has been shown, in a human-based, randomized, double-blind placebo-controlled study with a healthy adult population, to support the role of the innate immune system. This Aloe vera activates and promotes the activity of NK cells and positively affects the levels of other important immune cells, called monocytes, which aid in the overall support of the body's daily immune health. Emerging science suggests that Aloe vera may also help to support the activation of the body's own antioxidant system by stimulating the production of phase II enzymes, as well as assisting in the increased absorption of vitamins C and E. In addition to supporting the immune system and digestive health, this unique Aloe vera has also been shown to support cardiovascular health.
The Lactobacillus rhamnosus lysate is derived from the active probiotic Lactobacillus rhamnosus through a process called Lysis. Lysis is a process in which the probiotic undergoes a fracturing process that may allow the release of many substances from inside the membrane of Lactobacillus rhamnosus, therefore resulting in more exposure of the probiotic bacteria to the body. This is what gives this unique probiotic - derived ingredient a special application as a supportive nutrient.
Immune Prep by Country Life is formulated to be taken daily to support your body's immune health.

i didn't feel anything great while taking this on a regular basis, but... here comes the "but": while not taking this at the recommended dosage, i got a bad cold (the type that usually leads to antibiotics). i took a triple dose (3 caps 2 times daily) and within 2 days i felt a lot better. i ordered a box of these just to have around in case of a new cold.

It is the infrastructural paradigm shift that is sweeping across the Enterprise IT world, but how is it best defined? I refer of course to 'Cloud Computing' - the phenomenon that currently has as many definitions as there are squares on a chess-board. To try and narrow it down we bring here a round-up of some recent attempts to bring welcome precision where there risks being unnecessary vagueness. Enjoy!
"What is cloud computing all about? Amazon has coined the word "elasticity" which gives a good idea about the key features: you can scale your infrastructure on demand within minutes or even seconds, instead of days or weeks, thereby avoiding under-utilization (idle servers) and over-utilization (blue screen) of in-house resources. With monitoring and increasing automation of resource provisioning we might one day wake up in a world where we don't have to care about scaling our Web applications because they can do it alone."
-Markus Klems
"For me the simplest explanation for cloud computing is describing it as, 'internet centric software.' This new cloud computing software model is a shift from the traditional single tenant approach to software development to that of a scalable, multi-tenant, multi-platform, multi-network, and global. This could be as simple as your web based email service or as complex as a globally distributed load balanced content delivery environment.
I think drawing a distinction on whether its, PaaS, SaaS, HaaS is completely secondary, ultimately all these approaches are attempting to solve the same problems (scale). As software transitions from a traditional desktop deployment model to that of a network & data centric one, "the cloud" will be the key way in which you develop, deploy and manage applications in this new computing paradigm."
- Reuven Cohen
"I view cloud computing as a broad array of web-based services aimed at allowing users to obtain a wide range of functional capabilities on a 'pay-as-you-go' basis that previously required tremendous hardware/software investments and professional skills to acquire. Cloud computing is the realization of the earlier ideals of utility computing without the technical complexities or complicated deployment worries."
- Jeff Kaplan
"People are coming to grips with Virtualization and how it reshapes IT, creates service and software based models, and in many ways changes a lot of the physical layer we are used to. Clouds will be the next transformation over the next several years, building off of the software models that virtualization enabled."
- Douglas Gourlay
"The way I understand it, "cloud computing" refers to the bigger picture…basically the broad concept of using the internet to allow people to access technology-enabled services. According to Gartner, those services must be 'massively scalable' to qualify as true 'cloud computing'. So according to that definition, every time I log into Facebook, or search for flights online, I am taking advantage of cloud computing."

I like many of the useful points that people in this article have made about cloud computing. However, I see holes in most definitions for cloud computing. For example, many of the panelists mention that a cloud is tied to the Internet, which is clearly not true with emerging private cloud technologies. I've put a lot of thought into a definition of cloud computing that I think is accurate, encompassing of evolving trends, and yet simple enough for everyone to understand: "A cloud is a place where IT resources such as computer hardware, operating systems, networks, storage, databases, and even entire software applications are available instantly, on-demand." So, let's examine how that simple definition holds up with more specific cloud computing terms. * Public cloud: places like AWS, Google App Engine, etc. where shared resources are available to any one on demand. In case anyone is interested, there's a short post at our site that further explains our straightforward approach to defining cloud computing concepts, including other terms not mentioned in this piece such as open vs. closed PaaS. Thanks, |

Kudos to the Cloud Crowd for Re-Inventing the Wheel! One thing 30 years in the IT industry has taught me is that the more things change, the more they stay the same. Another is that the only memory we seem to access is short-term. A third is that techno-marketeers rely on that, so they can put labels like "revolutionary" and "innovative" on platforms, products and services that are mere re-inventions of the wheel ... and often poor copies at that. A good example is all the latest buzz about "Cloud Computing" in general and "SaaS" (software as a service) in particular: Both terms are bogus. The only true cloud computing takes place in aircraft. What they're actually referring to by "the cloud" is a large-scale and often remotely and/or centrally managed hardware platform. We have had those since the dawn of automated IT. IBM calls them "mainframes": The only innovation offered by today's cloud crowd is actually more of a speculation, i.e. that server farms can deliver the same solid performance as Big Iron. And even that's not original. Anyone remember Datapoint's ARCnet, or DEC's VAXclusters? Whatever happened to those guys, anyway...? And as for SaaS, selling the sizzle while keeping the steak is a marketing ploy most rightfully accredited to society's oldest profession. Its first application in IT was (and for many still is) known as the "service bureau". And I don't mean the contemporary service bureau (mis)conception labelled "Service 2.0" by a Wikipedia contributor whose historical perspective is apparently constrained to four years: Instead, I mean the computer service bureau industry that spawned ADAPSO (the Association of Data Processing Service Organizations) in 1960, and whose chronology comprises a notable part of the IEEE's "Annals of the History of Computing": So ... for any of you slide rule-toting, pocket-protected keypunch-card cowboys who may be just coming out of a fifty-year coma, let me give you a quick IT update: 1. "Mainframe" is now "Cloud" (with concomitant ethereal substance). 2. "Terminal" is now "Web Browser" (with much cooler games, and infinitely more distractions). 3. "Service Bureau" is now "Saas" (but app upgrades are just as painful, and custom mods equally elusive). 4. Most IT buzzwords boil down to techno-hyped BS (just as they always have).

By Pat Romanski The true value of the Internet of Things (IoT) lies not just in the data, but through the services that protect the data, perform the analysis and present findings in a usable way. With many IoT elements rooted in traditional IT components, Big Data and IoT isn't just a play for enterprise. In fact, the IoT presents SMBs with the prospect of launching entirely new activities and exploring innovative areas. CompTIA research identifies several areas where IoT is expected to have the greatest impact. Mar. 1, 2015 02:00 AM EST Reads: 3,012 |

Accidental Activist Charles Wheelan, Centrist Project, Lunch w Louden 8-14-14
in Politics
Where do people turn when common sense solutions can't be seen on the political horizon? Our guest today has a very serious suggestion.
As of April this year, Charlie Wheelan became an accidental activist when he realized that the concepts he taught and wrote about needed to move from thoughts and words to deeds. He added The Centrist Manifesto to his list of best sellers, and started the Centrist Project which is principled in fiscal responsibility, environmental responsibility, good governance, social tolerance, economic opportunity AND solving problems.
His plan is simple.
1. Create a home for moderate voters.
2. Elect five independent, centrist minded Senators.
Today we'll talk with Charlie Wheelan about his activism, his books and maybe even a little economics. After all, he is an economics professor and has written Naked Economics, Undressing the Dismal Science and Naked Statistics: Stripping the Dread from Data among others. What's up with the "naked"? We'll ask him on today's Lunch with Louden. Won't you join us?

Lyceum Of The Wolfe: Episode Forty Four
in Paranormal
Today's Paranormal History 101W lesson is being brought to you by "The Eclectic Novelist" Carmichael Wolfe and it will be centered on the mysterious occurrences that some of us humans find ourselves experiencing each and every day of our paranormal lives. Also, just like the previous episodes; all episodes with the title Mysterious Occurrences will deal with real life paranormal experiences and investigations.
In addition, the listener will be treated to various paranormal accounts that have been taken directly from The Forbidden P Files of Human History. These accounts detail our collective experiences with this enigma that appears to be millions and millions of years old and possibly even billions of years old due to its uncanny ability to invade our space with absolute impunity.
We as a species have absolutely no defenses against these "Paranormal Entities" that also include Extraterrestrials and their spacecraft. This very same phenomena that's terrorizing modern day humans also terrorized our collective ancestors during Biblical times as well as during Medieval times.
We as a species really need to get together for a frank and nonpolitical discussion about the Extraterrestrials since some of us understand their methods.
Visit carmichaelwolfetheeclecticnovlst.com so you can read about the 22 Axioms that detail the methods of The EE. Also a free Extraterrestrial APP called "Guide to the EE" can be download by visiting www.appcatch.com The APP provides a wealth of info.

I've never used triggers before, but this seems like a solid use case. I'd like to know if triggers are what I should be using, and if so, I could use a little hand-holding on how to go about it.
Essentially I have two heavily denormalized tables, goals
and users_goals
. Both have title
columns (VARCHAR
) that duplicate the title
data. Thus, there will be one main goal of "Learn how to use triggers", and many (well, maybe not many in this case) users' goals with the same title. The architecture of the site demands that this be the case.
I haven't had a need to have a relationship between these two tables just yet. I link from individual users' goals to the main goals, but simply do so with a query by title, (with an INDEX
on the title
column). Now I need to have a third table that relates these two tables, but it only needs to be eventually consistent. There would be two columns, both FOREIGN KEY
s, goal_id
and users_goal_id
Are triggers the way to go with this? And if so, what would that look like?


text: Have been on tacomaworld for quite a while but I'll be picking this up when I get back form work in a week or so. There is a little story behind it. My first truck was an 87 SR5 extended cab that my dad had swapped a 302 HO (high output) from a 95 mustang into. Two months after getting my license I was hit by a drunk driver and my truck was totaled, we got it back from insurance and sold it to a guy in Elko with a 4Runner. Fast forward 13 years and the opportunity has presented itself to pick that 4Runner up for a pretty reasonable price, its an 85 and the swap looks just as flawless as when my ol man did it. It has been sitting for about 7 years, and needs the tranny put back together, other than that it'll require some minor maintenance but all in all I'm pretty stoked about the project. After its back on the road it'll definitely be working on some bumpers, sliders, suspension, and steering upgrades. Here are some pictures.

Park Rapids Jewelry owners retire after 23 years in business
As Duane and Vickie Murray preside over the gradual closing of their Main Avenue jewelry business in Park Rapids, one segment of the market for their merchandise has seen an upturn in a recession - scrap gold sales.
"Oh yes, people are selling more old jewelry," Duane Murray said last week.
He mostly deals in gold because "silver isn't worth very much."
The couple has owned the store for 23 years; it's been in existence 57 years.
