BRIEF BIOGRAPHY: Jonathan Bryce, who has spent his career building the cloud, is Executive Director of the OpenStack Foundation. Previously he was a founder of The Rackspace Cloud.
He started his career working as a web developer for Rackspace, and during his tenure, he and co-worker Todd Morey had a vision to build a sophisticated web hosting environment where users and businesses alike could turn to design, develop and deploy their ideal web site – all without being responsible for procuring the technology, installing it or making sure it is built to be always available. This vision became The Rackspace Cloud. Since then he has been a major driver of OpenStack, the open source cloud software initiative.

Wearable technology was dominant at this year's International Consumer Electronics Show (CES) , and MWC was no exception to this trend.

New to Typophile? Accounts are free, and easy to set up.
Hey there guys. I'm having a problem with fontlab studio here at the office in which I can't seem to properly activate the tools in edit mode, they don't appear. What can I do? This should be so simple, but really I have no idea why the only mode where I can do anything at all is in sketch mode. If someone, please, I can't do anything at all like this, and since I've never worked with this tool, I'm getting completely frustrated!
Thanks in advance.
Forget about all this, I was just being stupid. I had the outline layer locked xD
Good to read that the problem is solved. Good luck!
Thanks :D

Group backs new standard following Conn. blast
MIDDLETOWN, Conn. A national safety group is urging states and regulators to adopt new standards that would ban a pipe-cleaning practice blamed for a 2010 Connecticut power plant explosion that killed six workers.
The National Fire Protection Association's new standard, published a few weeks ago and publicly introduced Tuesday, prohibits the use of natural gas to clean pipes at industrial plants, commercial developments and other projects.
The standard is not binding, but could be used by state legislatures and the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration to craft regulations banning the "gas blow" practice and encouraging companies to use nitrogen or other nonvolatile substances to clean pipes.
Connecticut this year became the first, and so far the only, state to outlaw the procedure, in which high-pressure natural gas is forced through pipes to push out metal shards, dirt and other debris.
National Fire Protection Association President James M. Shannon, who outlined the new procedure Tuesday at Middletown City Hall, said it usually takes a few years to develop new standards, but that the gas blow prohibition was put on a faster track because it could save lives.
The Chemical Safety Board, a federal investigative agency with advisory authority, has also asked OSHA to ban the gas blow procedure. OSHA officials have said they are considering the input, but as of Tuesday, had not issued a moratorium.
Six workers were killed in February 2010 when crews building the Kleen Energy Systems power plant in Middletown performed a gas blow.
About 400,000 cubic feet of natural gas and air was released in tight quarters, creating an explosive mixture large enough to fill a professional basketball arena. The ensuing blast was felt for miles and flattened much of the complex.
Investigators have not determined what ignited the gas and air mixture, though OSHA later said welders had been working nearby, and that gas and diesel heaters were left running during the gas blow.
Up to 50 people were injured, and lawsuits filed by the estates of the deceased workers and dozens of injured workers are still pending.
Crews had performed the same procedure eight days earlier with no problems, illustrating how unpredictable it can be and how the smallest factor can change everything, Middletown Mayor Sebastian Giuliano said Tuesday.
"The margin for error in these kinds of processes is paper-thin," he said.
Rosa DeLauro, whose congressional district includes Middletown, said Tuesday she felt compelled to honor the deceased workers by repeating each of their names so their deaths were not in vain.
"They're not just names or numbers. They have families, all of whom today are trying to adjust to their suffering and their loss," DeLauro said.
"We all feel very, very deeply that we owe it to the men who perished and their families and their colleagues ... to put such a standard in place," DeLauro said.
OSHA imposed $16.6 million in fines against the companies involved in the Connecticut blast. The two main construction companies, O&G Industries of Torrington and Keystone Construction and Maintenance of Rowley, Mass., are disputing the fines and their cases remain unresolved, an OSHA spokesman said Tuesday.

If it is bliss to be alive in the dawn of the Obama age, then to be young is sheer heaven. The president, of course, has set the tone himself: only 47 when he was sworn in, he is the fifth-youngest of the 43 men to have held his office. And relative youth is one of the hallmarks of the new administration. The president's inner team includes a fair few people who are as young as or younger than he. There is Timothy Geithner, the treasury secretary (now 48, like Mr Obama), his chief of staff, Rahm Emanuel (50 in November 2009), and Peter Orszag, head of the office of management and budget, who is a mere 40.
But the cult of youth is flourishing far beyond the walls of the White House. Some of the most interesting figures in public life have not even notched up the big four-oh. So here is an unscientific selection of three thirty-somethings The Economist's United States team will be keeping an eye on in 2010.
First on our list is Michelle Rhee, the feisty head of the notoriously union-plagued school district of Washington, DC. Ms Rhee, aged 39, was appointed to her job in 2007, having a decade earlier (at 27) set up the New Teacher Project, a non-profit organisation that works with some of America's poorest school districts to recruit and train teachers.
The project now operates in 28 states, and has recruited more than 30,000 teachers. Washington, DC, has some of the country's worst-performing schools, and Ms Rhee has been battling with teachers' unions to end cosy job-tenure practices that allow bad teachers to be almost immovable. "We have to move out of the idea that a teaching job is a right...and unless you can show you are doing positive things for kids, you cannot have the privilege of teaching," she told the Washington Post in September.
Ms Rhee is reviled by many of those she has clashed with. Her decisions to fire some under-performers and close some bad schools have attracted vitriolic criticism. But fair-minded observers note that there have been some impressive turn-arounds. Extreme courage and proven results at so young an age make Ms Rhee, along with Joel Klein of New York and Arne Duncan (formerly the schools boss of Chicago and now, aged 45, Mr Obama's education secretary), one of America's most interesting educators.
Also at the ripe old age of 39 is Paul Ryan, the dashing young congressman for the 1st district of Wisconsin, which he has represented since he was only 28. Mr Ryan is often touted as future presidential-candidate material, but his main task in 2010 is to help the Republicans win back the House of Representatives at the mid-term elections. Along with his close associate Eric Cantor, the second-ranked Republican in the House, Mr Ryan has been instrumental in wrestling the party away from an obsession with social-conservative issues such as abortion, gay marriage and guns to a more traditional focus on economic conservatism. In this he has been mightily helped by Mr Obama's trillion-dollar deficit and concern that radical health-care reform will add to it.
Mr Ryan is the Republicans' senior man on the House's powerful budget committee, and in 2008 published a "road map for America's future" that was full of good sense on how to restore America's public finances while guaranteeing health coverage for all. His ideas got nowhere then, in the run-up to Mr Obama's dazzling election victory. They might carry more weight in 2010. How far Mr Ryan and Mr Cantor have succeeded in refocusing the Republican Party will be known only in November. But Mr Ryan is a big part of the reason why Republican fortunes, which hit rock-bottom after Mr Obama's election, now feel as if they are on the up.
The youngest of our three is Julian Castro, elected mayor of San Antonio in May 2009 at the tender age of 34. San Antonio is America's seventh-largest city, and the largest Hispanic-majority city of all. So by winning—without the usual need for a run-off—Mr Castro instantly became one of the most prominent Hispanics in America. (His rivals for the title include Sonia Sotomayor, who joined the Supreme Court as the first-ever Hispanic justice last August, and the mayor of Los Angeles, Antonio Villaraigosa.)
Mr Castro has a big future to fulfil, which will doubtless one day include running for the United States Senate or for the governorship of Texas. Thanks to its large and rapidly rising Hispanic population, Texas is one of only four states in America where "Anglos" (non-Hispanic whites) no longer form the majority. Since Hispanics tend to vote strongly Democratic in elections, this offers the prospect of George Bush's home state flipping to the other side in the not-too-far-off future. An important development to watch will be the state legislative elections in Texas in November 2010: the Democrats are only two seats short of control of the state's House, and hope to win it, thanks in large part to the Hispanic vote. As it happens, Mr Castro's twin brother, Joaquin, is a member of the Texas House. Might Mr Castro one day be the Hispanic Barack Obama? He certainly has the charm, brains and boldness for the role.

A Fractal Design Approach to Ease Verification

Measuring Precipitation, One Drop at Time
Rain is never appreciated during a picnic and fog is aggravating to motorists, but those small droplets of water may actually hold the key on a small scale what is happening, or could happen, on a much larger scale.

SSH - Secure Shell
Developed by SSH Communications Security Ltd., Secure Shell is a program to log into another computer over a network, to execute commands in a remote machine, and to move files from one machine to another. It provides strong authenticationand secure communications over insecure channels. It is a replacement for rlogin, rsh, rcp, and rdist.
SSH protects a network from attacks such as IP spoofing, IP source routing, and DNS spoofing. An attacker who has managed to take over a network can only force ssh to disconnect. He or she cannot play back the traffic or hijack the connection when encryptionis enabled.
When using ssh's slogin (instead of rlogin) the entire login session, including transmission of password, is encrypted; therefore it is almost impossible for an outsider to collect passwords.
SSH is available for Windows, Unix, Macintosh, and OS/2, and it also works with RSAauthentication.

As IDF continue strikes meant to weaken Hamas's rocket-launching capabilities, more analysts are starting to wonder about the country that supplies many of those longer-range rockets: Iran... Now, some observers say that the Israel-Gaza fighting ... could make strikes on Iran more likely. http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/worldviews/wp/2012/11/20/does-the-gaza-crisis-make-israeli-strikes-on-iran-more-likely/?wprss=rss_social-world-headlines [/quote] I think one of the many scenarios the Israelis have on the table is to knock down any potential threat around their borders, so that any retaliatory movement resulting from a strike on Iran will be visible to observe/ prepare for/ or preempt. This equates to clearing the property surrounding your house so that you have a clear view of anything that moves between your home and the tree line.

However we can gain insight like who is bugging out to Denver. Next, Israel is prepping for the day of. By cleaning up the neighborhood around Gaza, Israel is gaining some safe space and limiting the problems of Gaza when the Hezbollah attack happens. Israel at least will have Gaza either under marshal law if she takes back the strip under her authority or at least keep the missiles to a low roar . There had been talk of moving the northerner in a war to the middle of the country, that is more likely if the southern missiles cannot reach that location. Next, limiting Terror is good no matter what, but it is all for an eye on the ultimate game, defeating Iran at real chess. Israel is currently on a path to take out not just pawns, but a rook and bishop. That helps when the queen will be at play with the Hezbollah.

In continuation of a series of years of World at War,THIS IS A SPECIAL EDITION BASED UPON URGENT PENDING MATTERS, the following was the 2011 thread.
Thread: The World at War, Official 2011 war thread for North Korea, Iran, Israel, China, U.S.
The following is the 2012 Thread up to the end of August.
Thread: World at War, Official 2012 Thread for Israel, Iran, Syria, Hezbollah, PA, Turkey, Egypt, Pakistan, India, North Korea, Russia, China, U.S.
Now we enter into the last four months of 2012. Follow the past year to see where we are at. I try not to give much BS and only ask that if you do not care for the topic or format, do not visit this thread.
Trolls, you will be deleted or blocked, you can start your own thread if you wish, just leave us alone!
As stated at the start of 2012, 2012 will be the start of much chaos economically as well as militarily. We have gone through much doom and gloom already. But now, it is of urgency that we wait to see whether Iran goes nuclear, whether Israel takes it upon herself to attack Iran, whether the US leaves Israel to fend for herself, what the results of the US election have in store for Israel, the Mideast and the US, and what will happen in Syria.
Israel must face the challenge of a nuclear Iran with or without the U.S. to protect her. Further, Syria feels threatened as did Libya where Assad may lash out at Israel. The Hezbollah may too jump on in. Lebanon and Jordan may face their own arab spring. Egypt may tear up the Israeli peace treaty any day. Turkey looks as Israel with jealousy for Israel's gas and oil reserves in the Med.
China and Russia wish to impose retrictions on America's once global dominance where there will be more challenges to U.S. interests leading to possible military blows.
North Korea's tender young leader has no fear in challenging U.S. might and may cause further military adventurism.
Pakistan has nukes that could be stolen and/or Pakistan and the U.S. may enter into more vis a vis hotile interactions.
Iran is threatening to challenge the west and is due for a nuclear detonation soon. What the U.S./and or Israel do to stop Iran is worthy of watching every day.
Iraq is now under Iran's thumb and likely will further become a feifdom of Iran.
Afghanistan is soon to force the withdrawal of U.S. forces.
India and Pakistan may soon come to blows.
Will the global economic crisis resolve itself, will the crisis collapse the world economy, or whom may come forward with some new currency?
Further, spiritually, 2012 looks to be a year of turmoil.
There are seers warning of some type of sign from God this coming year. The Mayan's seemed to predict something. The Pope may flee Rome? A comet in the sky? Great earthquakes? Signs in the sky?
Look further at bug-outs or going grey, everyone should be prepping by now in case things really do go bad. I am just saying.
So, if you wish to discuss the above mentioned or wish to hear it from others, feel free to drop in and leave some good 5 stars if you find this inforomation either entertaining or productive.

Winnipeg Free Press - ONLINE EDITION
Flyers down Jets in overtime
If you could paint a picture of what it looks like to have your heart torn from your chest and be kicked in the private parts all at once, Ondrej Pavelec provided a decent portrait late Tuesday night.
The Winnipeg Jets goaltender was unavailable to speak to the media following a 5-4 overtime loss to the Philadelphia at MTS Centre, but as the press throng exited the dressing room he was spotted propped up against a wall, his arms folded across his chest and his face sporting an expression that was part anger, part anguish and mostly dominated by frustration.
And with just cause.
The 24-year-old Czech was absolutely brilliant for the Jets as he kicked out 50 of the 55 shots he faced from a Flyer squad that overcame awful goaltending from Ilya Bryzgalov by scoring with 10 ticks left in regulation to tie the game and then won it with 43.6 seconds remaining on a goal by Jaromir Jagr.
"It's obviously a pretty crappy feeling," said captain Andrew Ladd. "You're in control of the game, you've got a chance to pick two big points up and you only end up with one. I guess 'disappointment' is the word.
"(Pavelec) was excellent. He gave us a chance to win. I feel bad for him because obviously we spoiled a great performance on his part. I'm sure he's frustrated."
He wasn't alone and here's why: while the point is critical for the Jets in their fight for a playoff spot it was the loss of the second one that cost the club a chance to leapfrog past the Florida Panthers into first place in the Southeast Division and ahead of the Toronto Maple Leafs, who lost in OT to New Jersey.
At it stands, Winnipeg is now 29-26-7, good for 65 points; the Panthers also have 65 at 27-20-11 as do the Leafs at 29-24-7.
So the night ended as it began, with the Panthers in third in the conference as the Southeast leaders, with the Leafs in 8th and the Jets, technically, in ninth because they have played more games.
The Flyers got goals from all of their big guns — Claude Giroux with his 23rd, Scottie Hartnell with his 28th, Maxime Talbot with his 17th, Simmonds with his 22nd and Jagr — who turned 40 last week — with his 16th. Scoring for the Jets were Ladd with his 18th and 19th, Dustin Byfuglien (9th) and Evander Kane (23rd).
But the offensive outburst and the work of the power-play — which was 3-for-3 — will be the silver linings preached when the sun comes up on Wednesday. In the immediate aftermath, however, the reaction from everyone wearing a Jet logo was about a point lost and the work of Pavelec.
"I like our group as much today as I liked them yesterday and the day before," said Jets' coach Claude Noel. "We've got seven of eight points (on the homestand so far), lets deal with that. That's the way I'm going to deal with it. I've got a real unhappy group in there. They're really disappointed. They're not real happy at all. But on the bright side of things, if you can find it, Pavelec was unbelievable. I mean, say what you want but you can win championships with goalies like that.
"What do you want to say after a game after that? What do you want to do? How demoralized do you want to get? What do you want to do... go home and put the knives and ropes away? There's another day tomorrow, we've got another game coming up on Thursday. We're going to have to pick our bootstraps up and play. There's too much on the line for us. We've got Tampa Bay coming and we've got to get another two points. Let's focus on the task. I'm not going to bury us with this game. We got a point.
"With this game you have two choices: I could pound on the players — which will not happen — or I can find a way to pick us back up and let's go... It's time to move forward and let's go. I'll take the point. We'll learn, we'll do the necessary teaching that needs to get done and we'll go from there."

Game preview
Excuse Claude Noel if he doesn't want to slap on the blinders today – his squad would be well-advised to do the same – while the outside world mulls over the various playoff possibilities for the Winnipeg Jets.
A win tonight against the Philadelphia Flyers (note the 6 p.m. puck drop) would vault the Jets all the way from a tie with Toronto for eighth spot in the Eastern Conference to third, as they would move past the idle Florida Panthers into first place in the Southeast Division. (The division leaders grab the top three seeds in the conference, regardless of their point totals).
A win would also move them to within two points of the Ottawa Senators and three clear of the Washington Capitals.
But given how fast the conference/division standings can change and how many games in hand some of their rivals have on the Jets – Florida, for example, has played 58 games while this will be game 62 for Winnipeg – Noel wants his team to fixate on what is right in front of them.
"You know, I'm not getting too involved in third (place), eighth… whatever," said Noel after Tuesday's game-day skate. "I'm trying to focus on the task and to me it's Philly and if we can win we're two points better in the standings. Other teams have so many games in hand right now it's hard to get a real measuring stick on where we could go. I just want to continue winning and continue playing well and just focus on beating Philadelphia because that's our opponent today. That's it. That other stuff about where we could end up, I don't even want to get into that, I don't even want to discuss.
"I think we're capable of doing some good things if we continue to play well."
The Jets will be attempting to win their fourth consecutive game tonight, and fourth straight against the Flyers this season. Winnipeg last won four in a row from Dec. 1-9 as part of their dominant run that month that vaulted them into the playoff picture.
The offence has come alive for the Jets in the past three games in particular with 12 goals, all of them by the team's Top 6 forwards of Blake Wheeler, Bryan Little and Andrew Ladd and Kyle Wellwood, Alex Burmistrov and Evander Kane. But after Sunday's 5-1 win over Colorado the message from the Jets' dressing room was also about tightening up defensively and playing a more complete game.
"Things are going well offensively right now, we're scoring goals, but you don't score four or five goals every game, every night," said Little. "It's not going to last forever. We had some success at the beginning of the year winning games 2-1, 1-0 so as much as we like to score goals we just want to win no matter what the score is.
"We've been being playing really well and we won three in a row, but that's nothing to get proud of right now. I feel like we still haven't played a 60-minute game in those three games. Once we get that down we're going to get a lot better. We're a young team and we're still learning. That's one of the things we've got to get better at: putting together a full game. That's what makes great teams great."
Ondrej Pavelec is to start in goal for the Jets and the Flyers, who are just 3-5-2 in their last 10, were to counter with Ilya Bryzgalov. However, Bryzgalov took a shot off the hand at the Flyers' morning skate at MTS Centre and left the ice. If he can't go, Sergei Bobrovsky would get the start.

Earth Dog Tags
This is a cute idea: earth dog tags. "In case of alien abduction these dog tags may save your life. The crucial data an alien will need to get you back to Earth is die stamped into these dog tags." Plus, they come with a money back guarantee: "should you ever be abducted by aliens while wearing Location Earth Dog Tags and not returned safely to Earth you will be entitled to a full refund of the purchase price." But I think they should also sell non-Earth dog tags. You could give them to friends as a prank. Imagine the look on their faces when they get returned to Mars or Jupiter!
