SAN JOSE, CA--(Marketwire - December 17, 2012) - OCZ Technology Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: OCZ), a leading provider of high-performance solid-state drives (SSDs) for computing devices and systems, today announced that it has initiated a beta test program for its Linux® Acceleration (LXL) Software development and invites its enterprise SSD customers to participate. The new OCZ LXL Software is a fast caching storage solution for OCZ's portfolio of enterprise SSDs and designed specifically for Linux-based physical and virtual environments.
OCZ's unique LXL Software provides a new integrated approach for making application-optimized data cache selections while minimizing I/O access times to SSD flash. It achieves this type of dynamic cache selection optimization by splitting the caching policy engine between the core mechanism running in the Linux kernel and an advanced statistical out-of-band analysis module that optimally determines which data needs to be placed in the cache and stores the data locally in OCZ enterprise-SSDs. The LXL software supports a wide range of OCZ enterprise solid state solutions across multiple interfaces (i.e. Z-Drive R4 PCIe Series, the Talos 2 SAS Series and the Deneva 2 SATA Series).
"By enabling intelligent direct pass caching, all data requests to and from the SAN are streamlined, reducing external traffic by up to 90 percent, as out-of-band communication with the data path provides very high selection efficiencies and ultra-low latency," said Dr. Allon Cohen, Vice President of Software and Solutions for OCZ Technology. "This innovative LXL architecture avoids the data-path processing penalties typically associated with selectively caching data and enables tighter integration of the data path from application to SSD flash. This beta program will allow OCZ to work closely with our partners to demonstrate and explore the benefits that this software delivers when paired with our SSD hardware to form a total solution for Linux-based environments."
Those OCZ enterprise SSD customers interested in exploring the benefits of the LXL Software via this beta release should contact their OCZ representative for more information. As a participant in the LXL beta test program, the OCZ SSD customer agrees to install, test and provide feedback to OCZ based on product functionality and performance and agrees to sign a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) to keep all product information confidential and proprietary until it becomes available to the general public. OCZ plans general availability of LXL Software in the early Q2 2013 timeframe.

The most dramatic difference at MWC was an emphasis on presenting wearables as fashion accessories and moving away from the original clunky technology associated with t...

Excellent salon quality product
The price tag for small jar is expensive, but the product itself leaves your skin soft, smooth and super clean, it's really helped my acne, it does tingle when first applied, but it's not unbearable. Even though it's expensive I would buy it again because I love it!
Expensive product for the size, but it really does make your skin feel really clean and super soft and smooth, did tingle a little but it wasn't unbearable. Even though the price tag is expensive I would buy again...I love it!
does not live up to the hype, all the people that say it is amazing are suckers for marketing. No better than a £10 face mask. Rip off.
Products are what I expected.
What's the hype?! two uses and no skin texture change or spot or particularly plumped glow skin...
this is a miricle formula
Stings a bit as it's working - tightening, smoothing effect is good - but after couple if hours felt like the feet had worn off.
very good product, does what it says.
AMAZING. I LOVE this product. A friend recommended it to me and now i'm addicted - must try
Great product great price
Saw difference on first use. Worth the rave!
Not for me, I broke out :(
Only used once so far however made my skin feel so soft
Excellent product . Would highly recommend this product to everyone . And i have recommended it . Used it 3 times up to now and my face feels so clean and clear . Had a couple of comments from people on looking well.

At some point on Saturday, possibly the time you read this, Kevin Love will be a Cleveland Cavalier.
Shawn Marion turned down more money - and the Indiana Pacers - for LeBron James and a realistic shot at winning an NBA title.
LeBron James will have familiar faces with him in Cleveland. Former Miami Heat teammates Mike Miller and James Jones have signed on. Ray Allen could turn the trio into a quartet.
Minnesota Timberwolves deserves ample credit for apparently pulling off a sizeable haul from the Cleveland Cavaliers in exchange for Kevin Love despite the hostage-like situation.
We already knew the likes of LeBron James, Carmelo Anthony and Chris Paul were sitting out this round of USA basketball.

Chile's New U.S. Ambassador Recalls A Deadly Day In 1976 In Washington And His Own Escape
Juan Gabriel Valdes, Chile's new ambassador to the United States, is formally presenting his credentials to President Obama on Wednesday.
These formal events are not normally Loop-worthy happenings. But this one is different…
There was Obama press secretary Jay Carney's daughter (Carney hitched a ride in the motorcade to catch the game). Jim Wallis's (a former member of Obama's faith council) son. On one team was senior Obama adviser David Plouffe's son. And NBC's "Meet the Press" host David Gregory's son and daughter are teammates with Carney's kid.

The factory anti-theft system is built in to the computer system on this van. Why not have a good shop scan the engine computer, the body computer etc to find the code and fix the problem? It could just be a worn key or the transducer that goes around the ignition lock etc. A good shop should be able to isolate the problem, I have fixed these problems several times and I mentioned the 2 most common problems i.e. key and transducer.

Editor's note: Jason Fischer, a pro- school choice school board member in Duval County, Fla. penned an op-ed for today's Context Florida in response to criticism of the testing requirements for students in Florida's tax credit scholarship program. Here's a snippet (and, full disclosure, the tax credit program is administered by Step Up For Students, which co-hosts this blog):
Tax Credit Scholarships serve underprivileged children. The scholarship serves 59,674 students in 1,414 private schools this year. What we know at this point is that the students come from homes that struggle, with incomes on average that are only 9 percent above poverty, and with the majority headed by a single parent. We know more than two-thirds are black or Hispanic.
More importantly, we know the students who choose the scholarship are among the lowest performers in the public schools they leave behind. And we know this: these same students achieve the same gains in reading and math as students of all incomes nationally.
That's encouraging data, but detractors call it irrelevant and "inscrutable" simply because the students don't take the state FCAT. While it would be simpler if all students in all schools took the same test, the nationally norm-referenced tests required of scholarship students are undisputed tools of academic measurement. Also undisputed is their ability to gauge whether students are gaining or losing ground to their peers nationally.
So policymakers are sometimes required to strike a balance. Full op-ed here.

Do I REALLY need a new Bosch Dishwasher
Doing a Kitchen renovation now...and was asked if I am using my old appliances. I said they are practically new...LOL, well, maybe not BRAND new...they are eight years old. I have a Bosch right now that I love, however its Eight years this month. I thought it was "younger' than that. So, Wondering what the life span is of these appliances is?. Granite won't be laid for a while, need to have a dishwasher in by them. Any thoughts or recommendtions. I never thought of buying a new one, but with the sales running now might be the time...Thanks in advance. What are some of the new changes?
Like you, I was urged to replace my DW when the kitchen was remodelled. I resisted - it was a 6 yr old Bosch, working perfectly. It's now 4 years later, and the thing still works like a charm. My theory was that dishwashers have standard dimensions, so it could be replaced as and when necessary without having to make any alterations in the kitchen, whereas an oven or fridge might be more difficult. I could see no reason to replace a perfectly functioning appliance, and clearly I made the right decision.

If there were a Hall of Fame for hyphenation errors, this one on the Yahoo! front page would qualify for induction:
Huh? How do you helpfully build out a brand? What the heck did the writer for Yahoo! Style mean? Did she mean "to hopefully build" (meaning, to build with hope in one's heart) or "to help build" (meaning, she can't proofread)?
At least she didn't write runner-ups, but she did neglect to include the hyphen in what should be runners-up.
When I see expressions like "a piece" I have to wonder what the writer thinks that means. A piece of what? Did she perhaps mean each, in which case she should have used the word apiece.
The editors at yahoo.com made a valiant attempt to use the suspensive hyphen, but the result is really kinda pathetic:
The duchess is due in mid-April to late April. To avoid duplicating the word April, the writer tried using the suspensive hyphen after the prefix mid. Good job! But using a hyphen to join "to-late" makes no sense. But it's too late to unsee that mistake. This should have been "mid- to late April."
I don't often visit Yahoo! Travel. I had the impression that it was a well-written site that wouldn't provide many examples of errors that would prove instructive to Terribly Write's readers. Maybe today's headlines are atypical, but they sure provide some great fodder for a blog post.
It looks like someone ripped off the hyphen in rip-offs, which needs it when it's used as a noun:
This isn't a brand-new error; it's a brand-new error. The hyphen is often missing from the adjective:
And my favorite is this headline about a restaurant called Warren where you have to carry your own tray and serve yourself macaroni and cheese and greasy fried chicken:
The Airbnb home was once the residence of Warren Buffett.
In the continuing saga "You Write the Top, I'll Write the Bottom," we once again see the results of hyphenation indecision:
How many mistakes can you make in a single sentence? If you're the writer for Yahoo! Style, at least four. You'd start by claiming that Jennifer Hudson has children. She does not; she has one son. Then you'd omit the hyphen in the noun carry-on. Then you'd screw up identifying the children in the picture and claim that SpongeBob doesn't need a capital B:
Here's the picture. The boy in the plaid shirt is Jennifer Hudson's only child. The boy not in the "gingham button down" is the one with the SpongeBob "rolling suitcase."
On the plus side, the writer did spell Jennifer Hudson's name correctly. There's that.

Maltipoo Puppies For Sale
Look for Maltipoo Puppies for Sale in your area using our Maltipoo Puppy Finder. Our Maltipoo Dog Breeders makes Buying a Maltipoo Puppy easy. Browse through all the Maltipoo Dogs for Sale if you are out to get one.
Maltipoo History
Maltipoos are not purebred dogs; therefore, they are not recognized by the American Kennel Club, or the AKC. They are a recently-popularized hybrid, considered designer dogs, and are a cross between a Maltese and a Poodle.
Maltipoos can also be known by other names, such as Malti-Poo, Malt-a-poo, Malt A Poo, and Maltepoo. Though they are not recognized by the AKC, they are recognized by other canine clubs for their popularity. Some of these canine clubs are the American Canine Hybrid Club, the Designer Dogs Kennel Club, the Designer Breed Registry, the International Designer Canine Registry and the Designer Breed Registry.
Appearance of Maltipoos
Maltipoos are small, toy-sized dogs, which are accounted by their parents, the Maltese and the Poodle. They have a small-sized head with a short pointed muzzle ending with a black nose. Their bright round eyes are often obscured by their long facial hair. Their ears are set high on each side and lie flat.
Though the Maltipoo's coat looks dense, these dogs shed little to none at all. Their coat length varies from medium to long, and can be straight, wavy, curly, or mixed in between. Colors also vary from single colors to combination, but are most often cream and black and white.
Adult Maltipoos can be anywhere from 8 inches to 14 inches tall at the shoulders.
Maltipoo's Temperament
Maltipoos took on the wonderful characteristics of their parents. Maltipoos are generally gentle, friendly dogs. They are loyal to their human families, docile with children, and are wary of strangers. They are quite intelligent, and with training, will be easy to teach discipline as well as tricks.
Due to their size, Maltipoos do not require extensive exercise, though they can be active and will enjoy running and other kinds of raucous play. They can easily adapt to homes with small spaces, as they are content in running around the house as they are also content in just being petted while lying on their owner's lap.
A Maltipoo's Role
Maltipoos were originally bred to be companion dogs, and they are very popular ones, at that. The Maltipoo inherits the Maltese's inquisitive nature while inheriting the Poodle's lovable and protective nature. This makes the Maltipoo a perfect companion for those who are living alone, such as the elderly, and even for those who have children in the family.
Their protectiveness with the human families and wariness with strangers also makes them excellent watch dogs, despite of their small size. These things, along with the Maltipoo's convenient size, make them a popular breed also for those who are living in small spaces, like condos or apartments.

'This road brought to you by…'
As the state budget inches closer to passage by the General Assembly, the Virginia Department of Transportation is hoping to raise money by selling the naming rights for roads, bridges and highway stretches.
"We look for revenue generation opportunity where we can, and we try to be creative with it," VDOT spokeswoman Tamara Rollison said.
She said it has been a struggle for VDOT to maintain Virginia's infrastructure in light of the department's financial troubles.
"Our resources and revenues have been dwindling over the years," she said, noting that a 1986 gas tax increase was the most recent serious increase in revenue. "When we can find innovative ways to partner with the private sector and generate some revenue, we try to do that."
On March 10, the final day of the regular legislative session, the General Assembly passed two identical bills authorizing the Commonwealth Transportation Board, VDOT's governing body, to sell the naming rights for such facilities as roads and ferries.
"The Board shall develop and approve guidelines governing the naming of highways, bridges, interchanges, and other transportation facilities by private entities and the applicable fees for such naming rights. Such fees shall be deposited in the Highway Maintenance and Operating Fund," according to Senate Bill 639 and House Bill 1248.
The legislation, which is awaiting Gov. Bob McDonnell's signature, says roads and facilities that already commemorate someone or carry a special name cannot be renamed "unless such naming incorporates the previous name."
Moreover, "No name shall be eligible for the naming rights … if it in any way reasonably connotes anything that (i) is profane, obscene, or vulgar; (ii) is sexually explicit or graphic; (iii) is excretory related; (iv) is descriptive of intimate body parts or genitals; (v) is descriptive of illegal activities or substances; (vi) condones or encourages violence; or (vii) is socially, racially, or ethnically offensive or disparaging."
Early projections of the prices and sales of road naming rights show that the program could raise a few million dollars per year and $273 million over the next 20 years. That's a mere fraction of VDOT's annual budget, which is $4.76 billion for fiscal year 2012.
Still, every little bit helps, officials say.
That's especially true as the General Assembly holds a special session to craft a state budget for the next two years. The House and Senate have passed competing budgets, and a conference committee is trying to hammer out a compromise acceptable to both chambers.
The Senate version of the budget would delay the opening of tolls in Hampton Roads until 2014. This could cost the state an estimated $125 million. VDOT could offset some of the loss by selling the naming rights for roads.
Virginia already has developed a naming rights program for its highway rest stops, slated to begin later this year.
The central question is whether putting a name on a bridge or road will be attractive to consumers, especially to businesses seeking to expand their brand's reach.
"I think the companies will love it," said Bridget Camden, a professor of advertising at Virginia Commonwealth University. "Every time someone hits MapQuest, the name would come up."
Camden, who spent 20 years in the advertising world working with companies such as IBM, BP and American Express, said companies initially might jump at the chance to brand a highway with their logo if the price is right. But certain factors could deter businesses from buying the naming rights.
"I think it could backfire on them if they can't control the stretch of road," Camden said. For instance, roads can have problems ranging from litter to prostitution – and those things could hurt a company's image.
Camden said controlling the "brand message" and associations tied to a company is key for effective advertising.
"Every company wants their name associated with something positive, but what if that stretch of highway is accident prone?" she asked.
One possible solution is that companies not only buy the naming rights to the road or highway but also "adopt" the stretch and do some basic maintenance.
"Big corporations become very conscious about how they look, so maybe it will be incentive to keep the roads clean," Camden said.

A taste of Japan
Ichiban offers rich Asian flavors, but portions lack
In a spot that could be easily overlooked is a surprising, and delicious, Japanese restaurant. In a tiny nook in the shops at the corner of Ridgefield Parkway and Pump Road sits a welcoming, warm and comfortable Asian restaurant called Ichiban, which means "the best."
The restaurant, tucked between a couple others in the Gleneagles Shopping Center, was so quiet and dark that it was difficult to tell if it was open at 6:30 p.m. on a Monday. When I opened the door, I smiled when I looked inside. > Read more.
One beauty of a charmer
Disney's no-frills, live-action 'Cinderella' delights
Cinderella is the latest from Disney's new moviemaking battle plan: producing live-action adaptations of all their older classics. Which is a plan that's had questionable results in the past.
Alice in Wonderland bloated with more Tim Burton goth-pop than the inside of a Hot Topic. Maleficent was a step in the right direction, but the movie couldn't decide if Maleficent should be a hero or a villain (even if she should obviously be a villain) and muddled itself into mediocrity.
Cinderella is much better. Primarily, because it's just Cinderella. No radical rebooting. No Tim Burton dreck. It's the 1950 Disney masterpiece, transposed into live action and left almost entirely untouched. > Read more.

ParentPay Case Studies
Croydon Councils award winning solution with ParentPay
Most schools in the London Borough of Croydon have their meals provided through a contract organised by the council. In order to enhance the sustainability of the meals service and help improve children's health, the council embarked on a ground-breaking project to remove all dinner money from its schools and record the meal choices made by its pupils.
The project has increased the uptake of both paid and free school meals, reduced the time spent on dinner money administration by up to 80% and increased the safety of Croydon's school children. Croydon Council won recognition with the prestigious e-Government National Award for Local e-Government excellence: Take-up & usage growth, in January 2009.
Gloucestershire County Councils lunchtime success with ParentPay and Edwards and Ward
In January 2009, Gloucestershire County Council awarded a new catering contract to Edwards and Ward for 160 primary schools across the County. As well as taking a fresh approach to the food served, the Council implemented a new system for the collection and administration of income and school meals.
The new system was successfully implemented across the County's schools in just six weeks, with £75,000 paid online before the first meal was served, and over 65% of dinner money collected online in the first two months.
The system has dramatically reduced the burden on school administrators and enabled the new caterers and the Council to reconcile income and track an increased uptake in school meals.

Lessons Shared - By A Successful Cashless Primary
Annette House, School Business Manager at Edinburgh Primary, East London, outlined why the school decided to go cashless by collecting online payments: "Within a short period of time we went from a small school to trebling in size.

Management of parental debt was becoming a concern... we just did not have the time to chase up parents payments and we needed to tackle the issue quickly."

Anyone know approx how may limes it will takes to produce 2oz of lime zest? 6-8? Brewing a homemade recipe and want to add 2oz of fresh lime zest at end of the boil.
Looks like a lime will produce 3/4 tbsp. Not sure what the density is though. If you figure it out let us know.
Bottled today and the zest if 7 limes seems about right. Will know more after carbonation.
It was good. It wouldnt hurt to add more. Flavor died out in the last couple of beers.
