Don't expect to shake hands with Yes' Steve Howe: 'I've got to put my work first'
Steve Howe has crafted a legendary career with his hands, and he takes that very seriously, indeed.
Steve Howe has crafted a legendary career with his hands, and he takes that very seriously, indeed.
Billy Sherwood talks about the role he played in smoothing Yes' sometimes-difficult transition from Trevor Rabin back to Steve Howe.
Peter Banks Empire is a lost treasure from a time when prog badly needed something to restore its creative momentum.
We go in depth on one of Yes' most inventive albums, 'Relayer.' Released 40 years ago today, it now represents a road not taken.
A Yes pre-cursor group, Mabel Greer's Toyshop has returned — with a whole new set of connections to the legendary prog amalgam.
Released 17 years ago today, 'Open Your Eyes' ended up as one of Yes' late-period orphans. It's time to open your ears.
Yes was "strictly a pot and hash band," Chris Squire insists, until a fateful 1973 U.S. tour featuring the Eagles as their opening act.
Jon Anderson's lengthy tenure in Yes gave him a broad perspective on its most famous guitarists, Steve Howe and Trevor Horn.
Trevor Horn, Jon Anderson and Tony Kaye join us to discuss Yes' "Owner of a Lonely Heart," issued as a single in October 1983.
The song became Yes' biggest hit, but also a point of contention.

Tennessean "What began as a season full of angst and uncertainty for Predators center Mike Fisher has evolved into one of the most memorable years of his life.

Fox Sports Tennessee "After sacrificing a two goal lead midway through the third period, the Nashville Predators (36-12-6) benefited from a James Neal goal with time ticking down in the overtime period to dispatch the Tampa Bay Lightning (34-16-6) by a final score of 3-2 in a thriller at Bridgestone Arena. SLAP..." February 11
On The Forecheck "The Predators fought back and found 2 points in south Florida. Because we like to do it the hard way.

BEAVERTON, Ore., May 16 /PRNewswire/ -- PolyServe, Inc. today announced the PolyServe File Serving Solution will be bundled and sold as part of the new HP Enterprise File Services Clustered Gateway.
Under an OEM agreement the companies have signed, PolyServe's advanced cluster file system and storage virtualization software will be integrated into the HP Enterprise File Services Clustered Gateway. The HP solution leapfrogs traditional Network Attached Storage (NAS) providers' wares by offering customers dramatically better price, performance and availability based on industry-standard computing devices.
"The monolithic NAS appliance is yesterday's news. By adopting PolyServe's open and modular approach to delivering performance and availability, HP is changing the game in enterprise file serving," said Mike Stankey, president and CEO of PolyServe. "HP's entry into the enterprise file serving market will be enhanced by their leadership position in the Windows-based file serving space, and we expect HP's validation of PolyServe's technology to dramatically accelerate the adoption of our file serving technology among large enterprises worldwide."
PolyServe's software-centric file serving approach aggregates Intel- architecture and Linux-based servers and networked storage to form a scalable, fault-tolerant, and manageable file serving platform for both commercial data center and high-performance computing (HPC) applications. The solution integrates a symmetric cluster file system, storage virtualization software, Network File System (NFS) support, and high availability services into a single point of management for modularly scalable throughput and storage capacity management.
The HP EFS Clustered Gateway pairs the PolyServe File Serving Solution on Linux with HP ProLiant DL380 servers to form a high-performance, low-cost, and fault-tolerant alternative to traditional NAS appliances. The HP gateway product can be sold as a front end to existing HP storage and as an add-on to the newly announced models of the HP StorageWorks Enterprise Virtual Arrays -- the EVA4000, 6000 and 8000.
"The PolyServe File Serving Solution is a key enabling technology in our strategy to provide customers with scalable performance and high availability with the price benefits of industry-standard technology," said Harry Baeverstad, director of StorageWorks NAS Division at HP. "Our competitors' proprietary offerings will simply be unable to keep pace with HP on price, performance and availability for enterprise file serving."
The integrated solution will be offered worldwide through HP's direct sales force and channel partners. HP also plans to provide direct customer support of PolyServe's software.

PolyServe, Inc. is a leading developer of shared data clustering software for Linux and Microsoft Windows(R) in mission-critical data centers.

Wearable technology was dominant at this year's International Consumer Electronics Show (CES) , and MWC was no exception to this trend. New versions of favorites, such as the Samsung Gear (three new products were released: the Gear 2, the Gear 2 Neo and the Gear Fit), shared the limelight with new wearables like Pebble Time Steel (the new premium version of the company's previously released smartwatch) and the LG Watch Urbane. 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...

100GB - 250GB - SATA Hard Drives
SATA / Serial ATA Hard Drives come in two basic types - Enterprise grade and desktop grade. Enterprise grade SATA disks are built for 24x7 operation and are almost exclusively used in servers that use hot swappable (hot-swap) drives with a SAS or SATA hot pluggable backplane. You use a hard drive tray or caddy or sled, and simply slide and clip the drive into the front of your server. Desktop grade drives, as the name implies, are mostly used in less intense desktop applications.
Example models are: ST3250310NS WD2500BS WD1600YS 6Y250M0 WD1500HLFS WD1500ADFD 0A31347.

Adoption Fundraising
There may be nothing more personal than an adoption fundraiser. When people are fundraising for adoption they are raising money to build a family. This section will address some of the easiest ways for individuals and those lucky enough to have support groups to take advantage of adoption fundraiser ideas.
If you are fundraising for adoption the odds are you need to raise quite a bit of money. There are quite a few adoption fundraising ideas but before starting you should develop a plan and hopefully get as many people to help you as possible.
The sad fact of the matter is that it's very difficult for one or two people to raise a lot of money. It is possible though and the fact that you have decided to hold an adoption fundraiser indicates you are extremely motivated. But before jumping in we suggest you make a list of all the people you know who might help in your fundraiser.
Adoption Fundraising to consider:
Flower Bulb Fundraising
We have Flower Bulb programs specifically for fall and another for spring so you can hold a flower fundraiser any time of year. Flower fundraisers are practical and ecologically sensitive. We offer a great selection of bulbs, a high profit potential, free brochures and order forms and the ability to qualify for free shipping.
$10 Frozen Cookie Dough Tubs
Frozen cookie dough is one of the best selling fundraising products. Everyone loves freshly baked cookies. This is our best selling cookie dough program because of the retail selling price. You will sell 2 pounds tubs of dough for only $10 each. Shipping is free unless you are in an extreme remote area. And there's no cost to get started.
Magic Melts Wickless Candle Fundraiser
The newest addition to our candle fundraisers. Magic Melts are highly scented wickless wax bars that you melt in candle warmers. There's no cost to start this fundraiser. Make 50% profit. You can even qualify for free shipping.
Peanut FREE $1 Chocolate Bars
Original One Dollar Bars are PEANUT FREE and the largest fundraiser candy bars. Besides being the largest candy bar the One Dollar Bars are only sold through fundraising and are not sold in discount retail stores or vending machines at discounted prices. With only a one case minimum, this chocolate fund raising product is perfect for small groups.
Popcorn Fundraiser
We know you and your customers will be thrilled with our Gourmet Popcorn. You offer tubs of eight scrumptious flavors that are all Gluten Free, MSG Free and made with GMO Free corn. Your group will make 40% profit and can even qualify for free shipping.
Coffee and Tea
You might consider selling coffee and tea to raise money. Coffee has been very successful for many types of groups. Your group would sell 10 oz bags of freshly ground coffee for $10 each. There are seven great flavors along with an old fashion gift coffee tin. Coffee sales work best in the fall and winter.
Snackin in the USA Fundraiser 2014
Choose from 31 mouth watering treats all made from premium quality nuts and candies. The Snackin' in the USA program costs absolutely nothing to get started. Simply let us know how many participants you have and we'll send 1 order-taker for each of them, at no charge.
Color Xploder Lollipops
Color Blasters are a fun candy. These swirl lollipops look like a tie-dyed shirt. All of the different flavors are thrown together and you get a unique mixture of color and flavors. Since no two lollipops are exactly the same you get to offer new fresh products each time someone buys one of your fundraising lollipops. There is only a one case minimum.
Cookie Dough Mix Fundraiser
How many cookie dough fundraisers have no minimums, 50% profit and are free to start? That's why our Delisheries Cookie Mix fundraiser is skyrocketing in popularity. You can even qualify for FREE shipping. This is the perfect cookie fundraiser for any size group.
Earth Candles
Earth fundraising candles are a great way to raise money with no upfront money. You offer a terrific selection of candles in all the most popular scents. You make 50% profit on every candle you sell.

The Commerce Department reported a somewhat disappointing report on retail spending for July earlier this morning, as that government agency affirmed that such spending rose by a modest 0.2% last month. That was a tad less than the expected increase of 0.3%.
However, not all the news was disquieting, as retail spending, excluding the auto component, gained a solid 0.5% for the month. (Note that the number backing out motor vehicle and parts activity is known as the core rate of retail sales.) The aggregate 0.2% increase, meanwhile, was notably less than the 0.6% uptick tallied in June. At that time, though, the gain was largely auto driven, as the so-called core rate of retail spending rose just 0.1% that month.
Meanwhile, there was some very good news in the report, namely the fact that overall retailing activity rose 5.4% from a year earlier. Moreover, in July, consumers stepped up their spending on such items as meals, clothing, and sporting goods. Also, department store sales jumped by their fastest pace in more than a year last month.
Still, the overall sales increase was modest, at 0.2%, and likely reflects the hesitation on the part of some Americans to spend aggressively in the wake of the continuing sluggish rate of job creation, stagnant wages, and the higher taxes that went into effect in January, when the partial payroll tax holiday ended after being in effect for two years.
On the whole, though, consumers continue to support the economy's tepid recovery. But while such spending is clearly welcome and supportive, it also is true that compared with prior business comebacks, this one is not being fueled all that strongly by retail activity. This last point is critical, as the economy is increasingly relying on households to fuel growth, as other potential drivers, such as government and business spending, remain comparatively weak.
Taken as a whole, this report was not a game changer, and suggests that our expectation of roughly 2% growth for the final six months of this year is probably not going to change in the near term.
At the time of this article's writing, the author did not have positions in any of the companies mentioned.
The major U.S. equity indexes started the session to the downside and then for the most part never looked back, with the selling picking up around midmorning and intensifying further into the close. However, unlike recent selloffs, today's sharp decline was not driven by a rising dollar and weak oil prices. Weighing on equities today were weaker-than-expected data on durable goods orders, which raised concerns that the pace of U.S. economic growth is slowing; and renewed fears that the Federal Reserve may begin to tighten monetary policy earlier than expected, sentiment that emerged after strong data on new home sales yesterday and continued chatter from Fed officials that an interest-rate hike should be on the horizon.

FSU returned to practice following a two-day hiatus that was caused by a wide-spread gastrointestinal stomach virus.
The Seminoles were still shorthanded but managed to field enough players for a practice.
"I've never had a sickness to that extent," FSU coach Jimbo Fisher said. "It got to about 20 guys and it just wasn't no sense [in practicing.]"
Fisher said FSU only missed one day from the illness, will practice Saturday and scrimmage Monday. The Seminoles could practice after the Spring Game on April 11 to make up for the lost session, but Fisher thinks he'll get the other practice in before then.
Some notable absentees were DL Nile Lawrence-Stample, RB Mario Pender (who was at the beginning of practice) and TE Jeremy Kerr.
Others who were in attendance but not participating were WR Kermit Whitfield and WR Ermon Lane.
New starters along the offensive line

FSU slugger DJ Stewart broke out of a recent hitting slump in style, driving in three home runs and nine runs last weekend against Virginia.
It was the accumulation of timely and patient batting for FSU, as the Seminoles took the series 2-1 against Virginia, marking the first time since 2004 that the program won a series in Charlottesville. Opponents can no longer avoid Stewart, the 2014 ACC Player of the Year, as the player batting around him continue to improve.
And Stewart is making them pay.
"It's pick your poison, whether you want to deal with me, deal with [Chris Marconcini], deal with Quincy [Nieporte]," Stewart said.
FSU is averaging 9.3 runs in its past 10 games since Marconcini made his season debut after missing the first 16 games of the year with a knee injury. That's up from an average of 7.5 runs.
Marconcini and Nieporte rotate between hitting fourth and fifth, but both have emerged as more than competent compliments to Stewart, who hits third. Marconcini is hitting a...Read more
FSU has canceled practice the last two days because some members of the team are dealing with a stomach virus.
The Seminoles were slated to practice Wednesday and Thursday but called off both. Practice is expected to be held Friday afternoon.
The NCAA allows teams to have 15 spring practices. FSU has had four practices since last Wednesday and is expected to make up for the last two days before the annual spring game – an intrasquad scrimmage open to the public – on April 11.

FSU coach Jimbo Fisher continues to gush over his crop of true freshmen.
The Seminoles brought in eight early enrollees this year and the extra time to get acclimated to college football could help a handful of the freshmen find the field in 2015.
One rookie who is making the most of his reps during spring practice is Jacques Patrick.
The 6-foot-1, 232-pound running back could make a contribution this year because he offers something FSU's top two backs – Dalvin Cook and Mario Pender – do not: size.
A bruising runner who compiled nearly 8,000 rushing yards in his prep career, Patrick has impressed Fisher with his polish so far this spring and has shown he can bring a little more to the table than just pure power.
"Learns very well," Fisher said of Patrick. "That big body – he runs natural, sees cuts, makes natural cuts and that's a big load when he comes through there, man. He has great hands. Not good hands, but great hands."
Fisher also mentioned Patrick's ability to take on blitzers...Read more
FSU TE Mavin Saunders certainly passes the eye test.
He's every bit of the 6-foot-6, 258 pounds that he's listed at and runs with the type of speed and grace that is atypical for a man of his stature.
The redshirt freshman, however, is a work in progress after picking up the sport his junior season in high school following a move to America from the Bahamas.
But coach Jimbo Fisher is pleased with the progress Saunders is making this spring. Saunders is putting it all together and beginning to show glimpses of becoming the matchup nightmare that Fisher envisioned when FSU began recruiting him.
"Mavin has really come along in the contact part of the game," Fisher said. "He's got a great attitude. It means something, it bothers him to make a mistake. He takes pride in what he does."
Saunders is a huge target and can run like a receiver, but it's the other aspects of his game that needed work. Typically split out wide in high school, Saunders has had to adjust to blocking more.
Fisher said...Read more
Jameis Winston does not plan on attending the 2015 NFL Draft and commissioner Roger Goodell is OK with it.
The league's commissioner told Sports Illustrated that he was "not concerned" with Winston's decision to skip the draft ceremony in Chicago and instead spend time with his family and friends in his home state of Alabama.
"I think that it's something we respect when a player says, 'I'd like to be with my family on that day,'" Goodell told SI. "It's an important day for them also."
Winston, who is expected to be taken first overall by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers when the draft begins April 30, would likely be a centerpiece of the television coverage leading up to the draft, thus his absence could negatively impact ratings. There have been past instances where top picks do not attend the draft – Joe Thomas, who was selected third overall by the Cleveland Browns in 2007, opted to go fishing with his father – but players assured of being the first overall pick are almost always in...Read more

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Introducing centralized system presents people challenges Diagnosing issues
Every year, more than 15 million diagnostic tests are ordered from Manitoba's public sector -- and that's not including an additional eight to 10 million tests conducted in private facilities.
"Eighty-five per cent of all medical decisions are based on some kind of lab or medical imaging result," says Jim Slater, CEO of Diagnostic Services of Manitoba (DSM), the non-profit corporation responsible for delivering public laboratory and rural diagnostic imaging services supported by over 1,500 professionals at 79 sites.
"We know from the cancer work being done in this province that diagnostics touch every step of that journey. It's critical to get people diagnosed so they can then make decisions on the most appropriate type of treatment therapy."
Slater, who began his career as a medical laboratory technologist, says that with the phenomenal growth of diagnostics due to the advancement of technology and increased demand, it is important that Manitoba has a centralized leadership body to oversee the delivery of diagnostic services.
"Manitoba has a complex health-care system of players delivering services and we need a central entity that can co-ordinate the delivery of those services while bringing the efficiencies to ensure there are no redundancies," he says. "The intention of DSM is to be the organization that can pull it all together to ensure that the delivery of services is effective, efficient and sustainable."
Now in Stage 2 organizational growth, DSM has gone through a period of building its infrastructure. The challenge now, Slater says, is rallying the staff and all stakeholders to deliver on its intended purpose.
Q: You came on board at DSM last fall with fresh perspective; what has this allowed you to see as the organization's challenges?
A: DSM has not quite fulfilled the vision that was contemplated when it was first established in 2002. It's been a slow progression because the organization was pulled together from scratch in a health-care world that resists change and tends to be very territorial and protectionist. Today, it's not the infrastructure that needs to be worked out, it's the delivery of the benefits that come from centralization. We need to further prove the value of having a provincial role to our stakeholders including the regional health authorities, public labs, hospital labs, cancer care labs and clinics.
DSM can provide everything from technical and clinical support to human resources and we believe those things can be delivered better centrally versus taking 15 or more different approaches.
At the same time, managers around the province can work collegially to share issues and receive support. Previously, if they had an equipment malfunction, they would've been at the mercy of a busy equipment supplier. But now they have access to provincial support, either by requesting assistance from another site or asking DSM to mobilize help to their region. As a result of this collaborative culture, we are starting to see a renewal of optimism amongst stakeholders -- even those who have something they must let go of -- and a reaffirmation of the value we can bring.
Q: What are some of the residual challenges of centralization that you still need to address?
A: People have long memories. Certainly, they remain working in their particular health region, site or hospital so even though they are in the same community or workplace, they now have a different boss and sometimes they aren't sure where their loyalty lies. My position on that is they should remain loyal to wherever they are delivering their service. Another challenge is that through DSM's inevitable inheritance of a myriad of different facilities, we have seen that quite a wide range of investments have been made over the past decade. Some sites have invested in technology and staffing, others have not. Some physical spaces are no longer big enough or appropriate and we still need to address needs such as bringing in new equipment or supporting additional training and development.
Q: What do you view as your main "people" priorities?
A: I have two main priorities. The first is to hire only qualified technical and medical staff to deliver diagnostic services. I strongly believe that we should not hire below standard. When you're short staffed, it's not easy to stay the course and be patient in hiring the right people, but I would rather a position stayed vacant than provide sub-quality service. The second, but equally important, priority is to begin recognizing people within our existing staff who can move into leadership roles in order to lead and support our frontline people. That's been the desire, but up until the past couple of years, it hasn't necessarily been the outcome.
Q: What attributes are you looking for in future leaders?
A: I want people who understand the value that they bring, whether they're a manager or a technical director or a vice-president or an accounts payable person. I've spent a great deal of time talking to our leadership team about refocusing on our true purpose and value. We need to be planning provincially, delivering regionally and also serving the local need to deliver appropriate diagnostic services to the patient for whatever they need it for. In order to do this, I want leaders who can handle being challenged but are also willing to challenge me back. I absolutely want people who can challenge the in-box thinking that health care tends to be so stymied by. I want them to take the risk of coming up with more creative and innovative ways to do things and in return, we will give them the authority right down to the front line to make decisions that will enable them to take action.
Q: As a new organizational leader, what challenges have you set out for yourself?
A: As I came to Manitoba from Saskatchewan, the biggest challenge for me is learning all our stakeholders. I'm hoping to learn the geography of all 79 of our labs and rural diagnostic imaging service sites without looking at the map. My goal is to spend more time getting out there and personally visiting each site so I can get a sense of the community and of the relationships in it. Secondly, you can't talk about health care without mentioning the small "p" and big "P" of politics and that is something I've also had to get up to speed on. However, I've felt a tremendous amount of support as people seem to be going out of their way to help me learn that aspect of this job.
Q: Who or what has been your greatest leadership influence?
A: Interestingly, I think that poor examples of leadership have influenced me more into becoming the leader I want to be. Going back to my early lab tech days, I worked for one manager who didn't leave her office. When there was an issue with an employee, she couldn't confront the individual making a mistake or causing problems; instead she would address it in writing in a communiqué for the entire staff. As a result, everyone knew who it was meant for except the person it was actually directed to. That taught me the importance of getting out and talking to people face to face. Good leadership is not about pushing paper, it's about interacting with your people and building relationships.
Q: What type of leadership books do you prefer?
A: I would say I am more drawn to out-of-the-box thinking by authors who aren't afraid to break the rules and challenge the status quo. Some of my favourite books are written in parable style, including Who Moved My Cheese? by Spencer Johnson and My Iceberg is Melting by John Kotter. The book that best emphasizes my leadership style is probably Who Are "They" Anyway? by BJ Gallagher. It's a fable about achieving success through personal accountability when "they" say you can't do something. Of course, "they" are "us," and anyone who wants to get on my bus needs to know that each of us must take charge of addressing issues within the organization.
