SLEEP/WALK event raises more than $31,000 for Rockford Rescue Mission
Online Staff Report
More than 250 adults and children of all ages participated in Rockford Rescue Mission's "SLEEP/WALK: Sleep a Night in My Box and Walk a Mile in My Shoes" event, raising more than $31,000 in cash and pledges. The activity was held Nov. 11-12 at RiverHawks Stadium in Loves Park to kick-off National Hunger and Homelessness Awareness Week.
According to Rockford Rescue Mission Executive Director Sherry Pitney, the event is designed to shed light on the burdens experienced by the hungry and homeless in the Rockford area while generating funds for the mission's programs and services to assist them.
Attendees participated in a 1-mile walk and spent the night in a cardboard box or tent. They also enjoyed a concert and heard a moving testimony presented by a gentleman who has overcome homelessness, addiction and other destructive challenges with the mission's help.
"The mission feels extremely blessed by each individual who chose to spend the night with us on behalf of those who are homeless or who struggle on a daily basis to keep from becoming homeless," Pitney said. "I hope they were blessed as well by their experience, and I want them to know they are truly partners in the mission's work."
Prizes for several categories of participation were distributed at the conclusion of the event. David Olmsted won the Adult Fund-raiser Award, raising $3,295. Miranda and Matthew Parr tied for the Youth Fund-raiser Award, both raising $1,200. The Outstanding Company Fund-raiser was CB Distributors, with $2,525. The Outstanding School Fund-raiser was Rockford Guilford High School National Honor Society, securing $3,669.
The Most Creative Box design by a corporation or company was awarded to 97ZOK, and the Most Creative Box by an individual or family went to the family of Parker Erickson, who celebrated his 12th birthday at the event.
More about Rockford Rescue Mission's programs, services and volunteer opportunities can be found on their website at www.rockfordrescuemission.org.
Open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year since 1964, Rockford Rescue Mission provides nutritious meals and safe shelter for thousands of hungry and homeless men, women and children every year, along with recovery programs and outreach services to rescue, recover and restore the lives of those who are struggling in our Rockford community.

i had a similar situation a few years back
someone went into the back of me and my insurance sent round a mobile mechanic to appraise the damage and bill to fix
I then got a phone call saying it wasn't viable to fix the car as the fix (£1000) would cost more than the cars value (£800). they then said they'd wrote the car off
I told them i would like to get my own quotes, got one at £500 which the insurance company accepted and released a check to cover
to be honest i don't remember having a particularly long chat with them regarding the write off, i just said i wasn't happy about it and wanted a second opinion
also, even though it was a non-fault claim, i still had to have the accident on my insurance polices for the following 3 years, paying about £150 extra premium each year, meaning I effectively paid for the repair myself!!!

The Swarm
A great episode that would easilly make up for two separate episodes.
A good episode ruined by a rushed, technobabble ending.
Paris and Torres encounter an alien ship while in their shuttlecraft. The aliens board the shuttlecraft and proceed to fire a weapon on Paris and Torres rendering them unconscious.
- Trivia & Quotes
Quotes (11)
Janeway: (as Voyager covertly travels through hostile space) When I was in high school, I snuck out of the house a couple of times late at night. I had to tiptoe past my parents' bedroom- it's kind of how I feel right now.
Paris: You sneaked out of your house? Where were you going?
Janeway: (smiling) I'll have to leave that to your imagination, Lieutenant.
Paris: Can I take a few guesses?
The Doctor: You claim you're my friend, but you don't even call me by my name.
Kes: That's because you don't have a name.
The Doctor: NO NAME?! That's ridiculous...!
Kes: (about the Doctor) He's been studying opera, what's wrong with that? Zimmerman: It wasn't programmed to be a tenor, it was programmed to be a physician.
Janeway: (to the Doctor) If a crew member came down with a debilitating illness, you'd do everything in your power to make them well again. I think we owe you nothing less.
The Doctor: May I remind you that I am in a way, your patient, who's suffering from an unknown, obviously delibitating condition... you would think you'd be a little more sensitive to my needs. Torres: You are questioning my bedside manner?
Trivia (1)
Trivia: This is the first instance in Voyager of the universal translator failing to recognise an alien language.

Terrible news, everyone - Rudolph has been boycotted from Disneyland!
I challenge you to find Rudolph - the real Rudolph - anywhere in the park. I tried, and couldn't. And no, reindeer Pluto doesn't count, and Zero neither!
Logically you would expect to find our red-nosed friend at Santa's Reindeer Round-up. And while there are eight live reindeer on hand, all of them most definitely have normal colored noses.
There are yummy treats for all eight - but a bucket for Rudolph is blatantly missing!
At it's a small world holiday, there is a reindeer topiary with a red nose on top. It's clever alright, but wouldn't you be disappointed if you came to Disneyland to see Mickey and there was only a mouse-eared shrubbery?
I haven't a picture to show for it, but inside the Polynesian room of the attraction, we see signs for Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Comet, Cupid, Donner, and Blitzen, but where is Rudolph's? He used to have one too, and it was all lit up with lights and of course a big red nose. But this year (and the one previous) his is nowhere to be found.
So now we return to Main Street - which taunts us with the song bearing his name twice in the holiday loop - and sit down for the Christmas Fantasy parade.
Eight reindeer, all black-nosed.
[image by Yesterland]
In a lengthy state of depression, Max just doesn't feel up to sporting the nose anymore. I don't blame him. If I were hanging on the back side of the wall in a shell of my former attraction, I wouldn't either.
Across the way at DCA, Dasher and Dancer have been hired as lifeguards.
Rudolph applied but was rejected - what you have to remember is that reindeer do not have the same anti-discrimination laws that humans do.
So what's the deal here? The tale of Rudolph's rise to victory as the guide at the forefront of Santa's sleigh is one of the greatest turn-around stories ever told. You'll go down in history. Was it not the most wonderful dream come true for Rudolph? And is making dreams come true not the focal point of the current promotion at Disney Parks? Is it not Rudolph who deserves, if not to be in the parade, to ride in the fire engine as the winner of - if not the Penthouse suite in the DL Hotel - at least the pen at Santa's Reindeer Round-up? With a bucket of sweet treats? Why are turkeys getting this kind of royal treatment, but Rudolph is left in the dust?
Frivolous imitations and the song are not enough. Rudolph is not getting the attention and respect he deserves at the place where dreams come true.

Performance Analysis of Adaptive Resource Clustering in Grid
Free registration required
Executive Summary
A grid provides abundant resources to the grid users. Task scheduling is a fundamental issue in grid computing. The objective of task scheduling is to allocate required resources to user request. Grid application that requires fast task execution does not perform well since tasks are assigned according to node availability not according to node computing capability. In this paper, the authors discussed adaptive resource clustering architecture that virtually grouping same computing capability nodes based on the number and resource requirement of tasks so that task execution becomes faster.

I was lucky enough to have a wife that loves me, and brought me a Sachertorte from Salzburg on her way into Stuttgart. VT member B1Bob alerted me to this wonderful food when he learned of Sarah's plan to come in from Salzburg.
If you are going to be in the southern part of Germany and can make it on a side trip to Salzburg, we highly recommend this delicious dessert, which is chocolate on the outside, and a dark cake mixed with a delicious apricot jam.
Katzenbacher Hof - It's a large beergarden in the forest between Stuttgart, Leonberg and Sindelfingen, beautiful place where everyone meets on sunny days. Best way to get there is by bike There are also parking possibilites nearby, but they are allways full and the police knows that too and fills out masses of tickets http://www.katzenbacherhof.de/

Tiny ticks can cause big health problems: One of three carry Lyme disease
Ticks - they're tiny but they can cause big problems.
Approximately one-third of blacklegged ticks - also called deer ticks - tested during recent years in Minnesota were positive for disease-causing organisms, say state health officials.
Blacklegged ticks carry Lyme disease, human anaplasmosis (HA), and babesiosis, three illnesses that can lead to serious complications.

(This is part 2 of the series entitled "Implementation of Cloud Computing Solutions in Federal Agencies" that first appeared on Forbes.com. This series provides the content of a whitepaper I recently authored. A copy of the complete whitepaper will be available at NJVC.com starting September 7, 2011.)
Despite the myriad benefits of cloud computing solutions, several challenges still exist. Being a young industry, there are few tools, procedures or standard data formats or service interfaces in place to guarantee data, computer application and service portability. As evidenced with the recent situation involving the services failure of Amazon's Elastic Compute Cloud, outages can be a potential risk—and can have widespread implications for consumers of cloud services. This risk becomes even more severe if a mission-critical environment could be impacted.
A benefit as well as a challenge, security concerns have also slowed the widespread adoption of cloud computing. A variety of security concerns exist. According to the article, "Three Cloud Computing Risks to Consider," in Information Security Magazine (June 2009), "the logging and auditing controls provided by some [cloud] vendors are not yet as robust as the logging providing within enterprises and enterprise applications," which can put critical and sensitive data and information at risk. Security, of course, becomes increasingly critical in defense and intelligence IT environments.
For the government market, the lack of regulations and compliance standards are also cause for concern. Currently, no federal regulations are in place to govern cloud computing, and according to an April 2011 Information Systems Audit and Control Association survey of 1,800 Chief Information Officers (CIOs), compliance is a top risk. Approximately 30 percent of the CIOs surveyed said that "compliance projects are the biggest driver for IT risk-related projects"—particularly in public clouds. Specific to federal environments, data sovereignty is a challenge. According to a speech given by Federal CIO Vivek Kundra at an April 7, 2010, National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) forum," [Data sovereignty] is not going to be a question of technology. [Data sovereignty] is going to be a question of international law, and treaties that we will need to engage in the coming years." CIO Kundra later added: "We've got a very diverse interpretation and a very diverse perspective when it comes to privacy or international security, if you look at our neighbors—Canada or Mexico—versus what's happening in the European Union."
Cloud Computing and the Federal Government
The Obama administration has identified cloud computing as a means to achieve savings in IT budgets across federal agencies—across the board—and to address various other challenges (e.g., delays to capabilities and other inefficiencies) that have negatively impacted IT implementations. In his Fiscal Year (FY) 2011 budget, President Barack Obama ordered a three-year freeze in spending for non-defense, intelligence and national security programs and the trimming of the budgets of some federal agencies by five percent. At a July 1, 2010, House subcommittee hearing, CIO Kundra testified: "To do more than less [in terms for federal spending], we need game changing technologies. Cloud computing is one such technology." The federal government is in the early stages of a decade-long process to "move to the cloud," but has taken definitive steps in its adoption. Several key milestones have been achieved during the past two years in support of this effort:
- 2009: Establishment of the General Services Administration (GSA) Cloud Computing Program Office to coordinate the government's cloud computing efforts; assembly of a public-private sector Industry Summit to discuss the benefits and risks of cloud computing; and creation of Security and Standards Working Groups to encourage collaboration and discussion on cloud computing by federal agencies
- 2010: Commencement of the development of federal security certification and accreditation processes for cloud services; convening of a NIST-hosted, public-private sector "Cloud Computing Forum and Workshop" to collaboratively develop cloud standards; release of 25-point federal IT reform plan; announcement by GSA and Federal Chief Information Officers Council on the requirements for the Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program, a standard approach for the federal government to access and authorize secure cloud-computing services and products
- 2011: Release of the Federal Cloud Computing Strategy (per the Obama administration's 25-point IT reform plan) and award of 12 GSA IaaS blanket purchase agreements
The Obama administration adopted a "cloud-first" policy
as part of its earlier referenced 25-point federal IT reform plan. This plan was developed after extensive review of federal IT projects with a particularly hard eye on 26 large-scale projects at risk due to being over budget and behind schedule. This policy is part of the 2012 budget process. One of the first steps in the "cloud-first" adoption is the requirement for every federal agency to develop and implement one cloud-based solution by December 2011 and three cloud-based solutions by June 2012. As of April 2011, agencies are making progress in this endeavor. During a special White House event, CIO Kundra said that CIOs from 15 agencies have already informed the Office of Management and Budget that they will evolve to cloud-based email solutions by the December 2011 deadline.
Cloud computing also has been identified by the Obama administration as a viable solution to the administration's challenge to cut the federal budget via the consolidation of 800 of the government's 2,094 data centers by 2015. CIO Kundra has specifically identified cloud computing as a central measure to reduce the costs and increase the efficiencies of federal data centers. Cost savings are already being achieved. At an April 12, 2011 Senate subcommittee hearing, Dave McClure, Associate Administrator, GSA Office of Citizen Services and Innovative Technologies, testified that the consolidation of just 12 data centers to three will save $2 million a year. Mr. McClure also testified that GSA's move to a cloud-based email system will save $15 million over the next five years.
So, whether or not federal agency CIOs support cloud computing, the evolution to the cloud in their specific IT environments is not something to consider in the future: it is something to undertake today—and is mandated. Therefore, the way the federal government conceives of IT operations must change from traditional practices and operating systems to new enterprise resource controls, standards and business processes and operations. With the computing stacks functioning as a utility within the infrastructure as a platform and new business processes in place, highly automated resources provide the extensible platform needed to meet agency or mission needs.

Meir Panim delivers warmth, special care to families in need.
"To this day, every Friday night I bless candles in memory of my mother, and there isn't one Friday night that I don't see her in my mind, blessing our candles at home…"
My gaze is riveted to the television screen as I watch my mother speaking. She begins weeping quietly, remembering the large family she lost in the Holocaust.
"I had a beautiful childhood, a warm, close-knit, loving family, and I think it's what sustained me through everything."
It was the day after my mother had passed away following a long struggle with Alzheimer's. My brother and I were sitting down with the rabbi to plan her funeral service. He had asked us to bring along any memorabilia we might have of her before she became ill. In searching for photographs and mementos, we'd come across a videotape Mom had given us ten years earlier – an interview she'd done for the Shoah Foundation, the Spielberg project that documents the testimonies of Holocaust survivors.
Back in 1995, when she'd recorded it, we had watched with a critical eye and dismissed it – she was nervous through much of it, and had left out many important stories and details. We put the tape on a shelf and forgot about it.
That day, we walked into the rabbi's office and handed him the videotape.
"Oh, let's look at this together," he said, as he escorted us to a room with a television. I had a moment of panic at the thought of watching the tape, only hours after seeing my mother at the morgue. My heart contracted as the rabbi turned on the television and we sat down.
Suddenly my mother's image appeared on the screen. The sight of her alive and well – the Mom we hadn't seen since she'd fallen ill – took my breath away. Unable to speak or walk for the last two years, our mother had been a shadow of her former self. She'd always been a dynamic woman – strong, vibrant, articulate, charming, with a love of life and an optimism that belied the trauma of her youth. And there she was, as I wanted to remember her.
The knot in my stomach began to ease as I watched my mother speaking animatedly, with all of her familiar facial expressions and gestures. I remembered that proud look in her eye, whenever she would talk about her four sisters – "My father was known throughout Antwerp as 'Mr. Gajst and his beautiful daughters!'" – and her nostalgic recollection of warm Shabbos dinners, with their delicious food and happy singing of z'miros. I soon realized that watching this video was far more comforting than it was painful. It was actually wonderful to see her again!
During the week of shiva that followed, friends and relatives gathered at my brother's house, and everyone wanted to see my mother's video. We watched it over and over again – ninety minutes of stories, spanning her childhood in Belgium to the present.
We heard how, at the age of 17, she'd hidden herself in Brussels after her whole family had been taken away. She described her eventual arrest by the Gestapo, followed by nearly three years at Auschwitz. Then the surreal tale of liberation, and her subsequent emigration to America, where she became a fashion model and later met the man who was to become our father… stories my brother and I had heard throughout our lives.
My younger son, who'd been a toddler when my mother was stricken with dementia, was now ten years old. He watched her interview intently, riveted by the images and stories of the grandmother he'd never had a chance to know.
As I sat there, I realized how fortunate we were to have this video. To be able to watch her telling the stories of her life, in her own words. It really was like seeing her alive again. In the midst of my grief, it felt joyful and cathartic. I knew in that moment that we had something invaluable and precious, and all too rare.
How I wished I had a similar video of my father, who'd passed away in 1998. All his great memories and anecdotes – building his family's first radio as a boy in Germany, his old army stories from when he was drafted soon after arriving in America, his lifelong love of the Yankees, and the boyish grin he often wore as he reminisced – were now preserved only in our own fragile memories.

MSNBC Op-Ed: Corporate America a 'Beacon of Progress' in Arizona
February 28, 2014 by HRC staff
In an op-ed for MSNBC, HRC President Chad Griffin reflects on Gov. Jan Brewer's Wednesday veto of Arizona's "license to discriminate" bill and the powerful voices that came together in unison to stop it. The so-called Religious Freedom Restoration Act (S.B. 1062) would have allowed Arizona businesses to refuse services to the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) community on the basis of religious freedom.
Much of that pressure against S.B. 1062 came from within Corporate America.
Writes Griffin:
A big part of the answer comes from major American businesses that are standing up for their LGBT employees and are making headlines leading the charge against discrimination. They're refusing to allow anti-LGBT legislators—legislators who don't even represent the wishes of the conservative-leaning people of the state—to threaten Arizona jobs and the state's economic future.
"When the legislature passes bills like this, it creates a reputation that Arizona is judgmental and unwelcoming," read a letter from 80 Arizona businesses and business organizations to Governor Brewer, urging her to veto the bill. "This will haunt our business community for generations to come."
And it's not just the pizzeria in Mesa or the nail salon in Flagstaff that would have suffered if Brewer had signed this hateful bill. Major multinational corporations including AT&T, American Airlines, Marriott, Delta and Apple weighed in—genuinely concerned that being associated with a state that celebrates discrimination will tarnish their brands across the country and around the world.
Read Chad's full MSNBC op-ed here.
Last week HRC called on Gov. Brewer to veto the measure, as did a number of prominent Arizonans like Sen. John McCain and Sen. Jeff Flake, as well as the Arizona Chamber of Commerce and Industry, the Arizona Tech Council, dozens of faith leaders from across the state, major corporations including AT&T, PetSmart, American Airlines, Delta Airlines, Apple, and even the Arizona Super Bowl Host Committee and the Arizona Cardinals.
Americans overwhelmingly believe that businesses should not be able to deny services to someone because they're LGBT, and HRC continues to stand strongly against similar legislation being considered in states like Mississippi, Kansas and Georgia.

Coco's Outback: Try the kangaroo at the "crazy" Australian bar!
This great easygoing place advertises itself with a slogan "Lousy food and warm beer", which definitely is not the truth. We fell in love with this this place where the staff had great sense of humour and a real service attitude.
You can go inside, but as it was summer and the weather was great, we chose to eat outside at the terrace and watch city people passing by.
Just go and feel and taste all this yourself - it cannot be described.
Favorite Dish: Kangaroo steak! Unbeliavably soft and smooth like a perfect beef fillet.
Mr. Coco's: Mr. Coco's
Barbecue everything, very good and great prices.
The cozy atmosphere and long time logo of LOUSY FOOD AND WARM BEER still remains even with the alterations to the front ceiling and the entrance now has the effect of a terrace which stays warm all year round due to the air blower above the entrance. The worlds Biggest Burgers, Unlimited Beers & B.B.Q. Ribs & Chicken. Very extentsive menu from appetizers, salads, and steaks to dessert.
Favorite Dish: All you can eat ribs!

I'm writing an android application that searches for devices using the UPnP port 1900, but when I telnet into the emulator and try to set up the port redirect like so:
redir add udp:1900:1900
It says:
Can't setup redirection, port probably used by another program on host
Port 1900 is being used on my computer by the Microsoft Plug and Play service and apparently cannot be disabled.
Is there any way around this? Short of side loading the apk on every change, what options do I have to test while developing?
I'm hoping I'm missing something obvious.

(written up for my mom, shared for the hell of it)
Yakisoba (fried soba)
pork or beef - 1/4 pound, thin sliced
fresh cabbage - one quarter, sliced
fresh yakisoba noodles (ideally), though cooked spagetti or cooked ramen noodles will do in a pinch (enough for one or two servings)
cooking oil (enough to lightly coat the pan)
yakisoba sauce (available at large asian groceries or online Otafuku Yakisoba Sauce)
furikake (available at large asian groceries or online Hanabishi Aonori Powdered Seaweed (Aonori Ko))
optional: bean sprouts
thin-sliced carrots
thin-sliced green pepper
Once all of your ingredients have been prepared, coat a frying pan with some oil. Don't use too much or your noodles will come out greasy: use just enough to cover the bottom of the pan when spread with a spatula. Heat the pan until the oil begins to sizzle then add the meat and vegetable ingredients. Meat should be placed over the area with the most concentrated heat, vegetables can be lightly fried around the edges.
Once the meat is completely browned and the vegetables are cooked, push the cooked ingredients to the center and arrange the noodles around the outside: (if you're using ramen noodles or yakisoba noodles) the heat and light oil will loosen any still close-packed noodles).
When the noodles have come apart, stir all of the ingredients together and add Yakisoba sauce to taste. You should add at least enough to turn everything brown when mixed together... beyond that, it's totally up to you and how dry or wet you'd like your noodles.
mix the noodles while cooking them over a low flame for 1 or 2 minutes.
add furikake (seaweed flakes) to the top of your masterpiece... Those who HATE seaweed can forego this step entirely.

Science Photo Library was founded in 1981 by Michael Marten, one of the authors of "Worlds Within Worlds", a book exploring different ways to observe the universe - from electron micrographs, to images of earthrise taken from the Apollo spacecraft. When Marten started receiving requests for the beautiful images in the book, he had an idea of setting up Science Photo Library. Since then, Science Photo Library has continued to work alongside world acclaimed photographers and the leading science and medical experts to provide a central source of the best science and specialist imagery available. Although the collection started with scientific images, it has grown to encompass all aspects of science and their impact on everyday life.

Eucalyptus CEO Marten Mickos (pictured below) continues to be a profound analyst as well as industry executive, especially when he talks about beer and cloud computing. He'll be speaking at the upcoming @CloudExpo in November in Santa Clara.
We asked him a few questions about the state of cloud computing today, and here's what he had to say:
Cloud Computing Journal: You've said public and private cloud are "two dimensions of the same world." Are you in essence saying "all the world's a hybrid?"
Story: Marten Mickos Joins Cloud Expo Silicon Valley Faculty
CEO Marten Mickos taking questions from audience following his Cloud Expo Silicon Valley 2013 presentation.
Marten Mickos: I am not saying that all the world is or will be hybrid. I am saying that most application workloads will not know whether they run on public or private clouds. The workload will see uniform APIs with uniform behavior.
Perhaps beer could serve as an analogy. You have beer on tap (public cloud) and beer in a bottle (private cloud). If you pour beer into glasses, most people won't know the difference. Even if they know, they won't mind the difference, as long as they get cold beer.
You can say that draught beer and bottled beer are two dimensions of the same thing. The most discerning consumers will care a lot. But many will be happy with just a glass of cold beer. As the one providing beer, you must have both draught and bottled. If one delivery fails, you always have the other. And some customers are very particular on that topic.
It's the same with cloud.
CCJ: Yes, I see. I think we can all drink that in.
Now, what are the challenges for IT execs and managers who find themselves in not only a hybrid environment, but a multi-cloud environment? That is, maybe AWS here, GCE there, with Eucalyptus in a private cloud somewhere else? It seems this can happen when one company is acquired by another.
Marten: Multi-cloud environments are tricky, because they're so much is different. If you have AWS, GCE and Azure in use in your company, you will essentially need three different teams to work with those clouds. And you won't be able to move workloads easily between them.
It's conceptually not unlike the situation where you have Windows laptops, Linux laptops and MacBooks in use in a corporation. People and workloads will gravitate towards one of those camps, with little exchange of thoughts or innovation between the groups.
If you have AWS and Euca, however, you just need one set of training and one set of skill and design paradigms. You can use the same tools on both environments. And applications can run on either, irrespective of which environment (AWS or Euca) they were originally developed for.
CCJ: And now an evergreen we always need to ask: what's your view of OpenStack and Apache CloudStack these days?
Marten: CloudStack is wonderful technology that I have always respected.
OpenStack is hugely popular, still struggling to get its design cleaned up and the code hardened. I wrote about OpenStack in two blog postings:
