A clean and dynamic site for a web design agency that lays out its process in a clear and concise way. The restrained use of colour is good, as is the use of icons and official logos.
Posted in Web Design → DesignI really like how different this joystick element is to a lot of the example you can see. The interesting use of colour sets it apart. The depth and attention to meticulous detail is great.
Posted in Interface → OtherSome gorgeous, if obscure, icons relating to the space shuttle orbiter. I love the graphical style and fantastic use of colour. I particularly like the top right icon, the representation is just perfect.
Posted in Interface → OtherA stunning shot of an upcoming iPhone app. I really like the use of textures here and the way the orange contrasts with the dark background colours. The use of icons is another highlight of this design.
Posted in Interface → iPhone AppA stunning, and very apt, business card for a designer who focusses on typography. I simply love the type and the effect produced by the letterpress.
Posted in Branding → Business CardsA gorgeous interface for an iPhone app. I love the use of typography and the clean tab-based layout. The wood grain background gives the app a strong character.
Posted in Interface → iPhone AppA great design for a magnifying function on an infographic. I love the way the coloured elements stand out on the graphic. The shape of the magnified section works really well, I particularly like the close button.
Posted in Interface → InfographicA gorgeous interface for a floating audio player. I really like the blue colour used here and the use of icons throughout. The border of the design adds gravity, while the use of a thumbnail adds visual interest.
Posted in Interface → Mac AppA simply stunning, and memorable, example of product branding and design. I love the powerful focus on typography, the illustrative style of the text makes a strong statement. There is emphatic use of contrast here, which perfectly suits a fashion brand.
Posted in Branding → ProductA brilliantly slick example of packaging design. This gastronomy kit uses fascinating pictures and strong branding extremely effectively. The packaging brilliance continues inside, the use of chemical symbols and branded syringes completing the experience.
Posted in Branding → ProductA simple but beautifully effective icon for an iPhone app. This MoneyBook icon perfectly conveys the purpose and design of the app, something that's vitally important when designing an app icon. I particularly like the coherent use of texture and stitching detail.
Posted in Interface → iPhone AppA simple shot of an iPad interface that pays a great deal of attention to typography. I really like the background image and the design of the map button. I'm intrigued to see the app in full!
Posted in Interface → iPad AppA beautifully striking site for a project management tool for freelancers. I love the black text on orange and the intuitive way the site leads you through. There could be a reduction in the opening text, however.
Posted in Web Design → MiscAn incredible idea for a business card design! These heat-activated, color changing business cards are amazing. I love the interactivity of the design and the pure impact they would have on any prospective clients.
Posted in Branding → Business CardsA glimpse of a great interface for an iPhone app. I love the wood textures and the detail of the grain, while the snapshot photos work well to add life to the UI. The custom font used for the app name makes a strong statement and is utterly memorable.

Wayne Rouse presented Robin van Persie with his O2 Arsenal.com Player of the Month award before Saturday's game against Bolton Wanderers.
The Arsenal fan, from Milton Keynes, met Robin and won two tickets to watch the match. "Robin has been a shining light in what has been a difficult period for Arsenal," said Wayne before the game.
Robin scooped his second consecutive Player of the Month award, polling just over 30 per cent of the votes.
After sitting out December's first two fixtures, Robin returned with a bang. He went close to scoring at Middlesbrough and Aston Villa but did find the target after a sumptuous piece of skill against Liverpool. Receiving a high ball from Samir Nasri with his back to goal, the 25-year-old controlled and swivelled with one touch before lashing an unstoppable effort past Pepe Reina at the near post. It was Robin's 53rd goal for Arsenal, and probably his best at Emirates Stadium.
You can cast your vote for the January O2 Arsenal.com Player of the Month when our poll opens on February 2. Once again, one lucky voter will be chosen to present the award and they will also win two tickets to a game at the Emirates.

Where I stayed
Palmyra is a huge Oasis in the desert. Palm trees and greenery are a stark contrast to the desert surrounding the town.
After breakfast the next day (5Th floor of hotel with glorious views to the ancient city) we set off to the first stop, the very unusual multi story burial towers. These were unlike anything we had ever seen before. Coffins were stacked in pigeonhole, like niches, in towers. The niches were then sealed with stone panels carved with a head and shoulders portrait of the deceased. Amazing fresco's decorate the burial towers. What really tickled our fancy is that there is a notice above the door advertising to all that there were niches for sale if you would like to buy your burial chamber in advance or if you were caught out and not made your own arrangements, for instance a merchant dying while his camel train was in town.
Next we had a tour through the city ruins ending up at the impressive temple of Bel. Palmyra has an extensive history of occupation with Assyrian, Greek, Roman, Islamic and Turkish rules and each culture added to (and took away from!) Palmyra. The city is famous for Queen Zenobia who was half Greek, half Arab and a descendant of Cleopatra. She became ruler in 267AD when Palmyra was at its height and aggressively set out to conquer new territories including Rome. She added many opulent touches to Palmyra including commissioning a massive stone pillar to be sent from Aswan in Egypt. The mind boggles as to how it got there and how long it took! The armies of Queen Zenobia were beaten back by the Roman forces and as retribution they torched Palmyra and knocked Zenobia's head off her shoulders and off all her statues in Palmyra. The city then went into decline and fell to the Islamic armies in 634AD.
Of interest on our tour was a huge square for commerce where the camel traders from the Orient came to sell their wares and pay their taxes to the large custom house. It even had a speaker's corner for people to air their opinions (bitch), preach or make speeches. You could just visualize a bygone era of camel drivers selling silks and spices.
Palmyra's next big problem was a major earthquake in 1089AD. Massive pillars and huge blocks (with carvings and inscriptions) lie about all over the place, where the earthquake felled them.
Time to leave Palmyra and drive back to Damascus.
Footnote: Site of Palmyra is UNESCO World Heritage Listed.

. Her little dress is a Japanese linen cotton blend on top, with a Sarah Jane skirt trimmed with yellow ric-rac. I might need to make another one that's very similar as a ready to ship because I'm smitten with the sweetness!

Website, Facebook, Goodreads, Twitter, LinkedIn, Pinterest, Amazon
Hi Maranda and thanks for contacting me regarding the possibility of an interview. In doing my research to discover more about you, I've noticed you have written multiple books that each seem to focus on bringing up and/or raising awareness of some of today's important issues.
Before we start discussing your books, though, let's talk a little about you. The first thing I imagine that most people will notice is the unusual spelling of your first name. I like its uniqueness - how did it come to be? Were you named after someone specific (an older family member or a family friend), or did your parents just really like the name but want yours to be different and therefore more memorable?
My mom didn't name me after anyone in particular. She just really liked the name and she wanted to spell it a little differently than the common spelling; probably because our entire family has weird names.
Mine is actually the most common - my mom's name is Karicia and my sister's name is Karlena. At least people don't have trouble pronouncing my name, just spelling it right. When I was growing up though, I always kind of wished that I had a name starting with a "K" since everyone else in the family did; now I like my name though.
In your Amazon bio, you mentioned that you were born in Muncie, Indiana. Being that you now live near Dayton, Ohio, where were you raised as a child? Small city? Big town? Somewhere in between? Any siblings?
I lived in Muncie, Indiana until I was around 11. Then we moved to Adairsville, GA and lived there for six years. It was a huge change because Muncie was an urban college town and Adairsville was a tiny little southern town. We moved back to Muncie when I was 17 and that was where I later met my husband. We moved to Dayton, Ohio when my husband got a new job here. I like where I live now, but I kind of miss both Indiana and Georgia at times.
As I mentioned in the first question, I do have one older sister named Karlena. Unfortunately, she passed away a couple years ago, which was one of the hardest things I have ever dealt with. I have some other half-siblings, but I honestly don't know them that well since I wasn't raised with them.
As a child, what was life like for you? Did you participate in the once-upon-a-time fairly customary (before the age of video games) childhood activities such as: hide and go seek indoor/outdoor, Marco Polo while swimming, or just sipping afternoon tea with the dolls? What entertaining things did you personally enjoy doing?
As a child, I was a little different than most kids; likely because of having Asperger's. I didn't do much imaginary play, although I did have an imaginary "frenemy" called Amy until I was around 10. I call her a "frenemy" because we fought all the time and were always competing (with myself winning of course since she was imaginary).
I had real friends too, but I honestly didn't care much if they were there or not. I loved to play alone and often kicked my friends out when they made me mad. I feel badly about how I treated other kids back then, but I just didn't know the proper social skills back then. High functioning autism wasn't something most people knew about so I went undiagnosed during my childhood.
I had lots of toys I collected (especially Barbie and My Little Pony), but I didn't really play with them. I would line them up or display them instead. I did play Atari and Nintendo games with my sister a lot since we shared a room. We loved Super Mario 3 the best.
I always loved to read, and read adult books while fairly young. I remember reading Stephen King and VC Andrews when I was around eight or nine. I'm not sure I would encourage that though.
At school I did exceptionally well academically, but struggled some socially. I was put into gifted classes at a fairly young age, which I always enjoyed.
When did you discover your love for books? What about drawing and/or painting? How about that penchant for ice cream; when did that start? My favorite flavor is Cherry Garcia. What's yours?

In response to an article the St. Louis Post-Dispatch ran Sunday delving into the high number of St. Louis drivers who have repeatedly dodged convictions for driving while intoxicated, Gov. Jay Nixon announced Monday that the Missouri legislature would reform the state's DWI laws by spring. Nixon began assembling a group of leaders to work on the revisions this week.
The second in a series, the article that caused Nixon to put revising DWI laws on the agenda revealed a "culture of cutting deals" where St. Louis-area judges often decide not to convict motorists for driving drunk, even in cases of repeat offenders. The two most frequent plea deals are probation or replacing the DWI with the conviction of a less-serious traffic charge.
The practices mean Missouri's Department of Revenue never gets the reports of alcohol-related transgressions, which if charged would automatically result in suspended licenses. Missouri law says that those who have gone to court for a DWI more than once can't get special deals, but the Post-Dispatch report said the legislation is ignored. Drivers in question never see ramifications through their insurance costs, either.
Nixon said he wants to see increased transparency and consistency in DWI dealings throughout the state, but the governor hasn't offered any ideas about how laws will change specifically. Other legislators also see need for action: Rep. Jill Schupp, D-Creve Coeur, said it is "absolutely critical;" and Rep. Walt Bivins, R-St. Louis County, said DWIs are "glossed over" in the legal system.
How can Missouri laws change to more effectively deal with drunken driving?

2 scoops vanilla ice cream

It was waay too milky. Not thick at all.

Beautiful milkshake! I love the extra added flavor of vanilla which is what sets this apart from the ordinary Oreo milkshakes. I used homemade vanilla ice cream and we added fresh whip on top!
Yummy! I added a little more ice cream and a few more cookies. Used whole milk.
I made this a few minutes ago and it was really yummy! You can add more ice cream or vanilla to the recipe and it still tastes good. Also, after being blended, you can add crushed up Oreos for some crunch! This is a really good recipe!
I loved it!!! The kids had a blast making it. I added more ice cream and a little more vanilla extract and we topped it off with chocolate syrup and it was perfect.
So yummy! I like my shakes on the thicker side so I cut the milk portion in half and added a cup of ice in my blender as well. Tasted even better when I threw in a banana!
The only thing wrong..... not thick enough. Tastes awesome. I did everything to try to make this a thick milkshake. Help! Where did I go wrong? I added more ice cream, more oreos, less than half a cup of ice and half a cup of Fat Free Milk. Boo! Was it the fat free milk???

text: [SUBMIT TO GALLERY] [SUBMIT TO FAVORITES] Please read our Mission and Guidelines below before Joining and submitting art to our group. O U R . M I S S I O N This group aims to feature compelling, aesthetically strong, and meaningful artwork that largely hovers around the theme of Anthropomorphism. Anthropomorphism: is the conceptual philosophy involving the projection of human physical or behavioral traits onto anything that is not human. (also known in literature as personification). Our mission is to work towards a real art world appreciation of the theme of Anthro by featuring artists and artworks that have great potential to shine in galleries, tradeshows and exhibitions outside of the internet and its culture. We want to develop an appreciation for Anthro art beyond film and television, beyond comics, and beyond the fandom. W H A T . W E . L O O K . F O R We hold the artwork we want to feature accountable to the three criteria of Art Criticism in the real art world: FORMALIST ISSUES Is there a unique use of technique? Is there successful use of the Elements and Principles of Art and Design (color, shape, form, value, line, texture, emphasis, contrast....etc)? TECHNICAL EXECUTION Is the piece neatly presented? Was the technique used successful and consistent? CONCEPTUAL DELIVERY Does the piece have meaning? Is the meaning deliberate and communicated clearly? Not every piece of art is strong in all three of these criteria and this is why Art is a subjective thing. We look for art that can answer at least half of the questions above with great strength. Can the piece connect with audiences outside of the furry/anthro fandom/community? Answer all of these questions to yourself before submitting to our gallery. These are things we will be looking for in your piece. W H A T . W E . A C C E P T Because we are a gallery group that advocates postmodernism and contemporary art, we accept a variety of media. However, we are sticking to media that could be showcased in an actual Art Gallery. Digital -painting -drawing -collage Traditional -painting -drawing -collage -Mixed media -Printmaking Sculpture -Modeling (clay, metal,mixed media Non-functional sculpture) -Costumery (fursuit & functional sculpture) H O W . W E . J U R Y . T H E . A R T . (RULES FOR SUBMITTING) STEP 1]. Become a member by joining our group! STEP 2]. Go to our Gallery and Submit the piece you wish to be juried in the appropriate folder. TWO submissions per week. STEP 3]. ....profit? Artist Exposure Folder Submissions This folder will be open to Contributors to submit artwork that is not for jury on a weekly basis. 3 submissions per week per Contributor. Contributors still follow the same routine for regularly juried pieces. How do I become a Contributor? Contributors are chosen by staff members of the group from Members who actively participate, suggest favorites, and promote anthro art appreciation. Favorites & Art from the Community Folder Any Member can suggest an unlimited amount of favorites per day. The Feature folder will be voted on. The "Art from the Community" folder is open for you as a member to submit to whenever you like! This folder is not juried, however; please only submit artwork that shows good effort. The staff may be looking through that folder for additions to our gallery. Audience and Maturity Rating We at HausOfAnthro, accept mature artwork submissions but like all the art juried here, we are looking for artwork that helps our mission. We do not accept any submissions that violate deviantART's TOS. Reasons for submission rejection We will not be giving out specific reasons for turning down pieces. If we decline your artwork, it is because we feel it is not meeting the criteria we are looking for. We encourage you to continue growing as an artist and submit again in the future. Being declined doesn't mean you are a bad artist or that your art is bad. It just means you have been exposed to the subjectivity of a gallery juror. We at HausOfAnthro think it is important to introduce the reality of the real art world with this particular group. In reality, when you submit to a juried exhibition, you are not given a reason why your submission was declined. (or even accepted). There are tons of groups on dA that will offer reason for rejection. This group juries like a New York City art gallery-- meant as an educational experience for you. What opportunities are there to get my work exposed here outside of jury? As listed above, members can use our favorites "Art from the Community" folder which is unlimited, and Contributors can use the "Artist Exposure" folder in the gallery 3 times per week. The staff also hand-picks artwork from all over dA....and we frequently snoop through our favorites *hint hint* C O M M U N I T Y L I N K Anthro Frontpage || What Is Anthro? || AnthroCommunity G R O U P S . W E . S U G G E S T For exposure and growth for your artwork, consider submitting to these groups as well. |

Poker With UN Votes: Europe Divided on Palestinian Question
He's the first European Council President to speak before the United Nations General Assembly -- but he'll be allowed to say precious little. Herman van Rompuy will avoid controversial commitments, serving only to highlight European discord over the Palestinian question.
It's a historic premiere: For the first time, a European Council President will appear before the United Nations General Assembly. But protocol will allow Herman van Rompuy to make only a statement, instead of a proper speech, because he is not a head of state. Still, it's symbolic step in the path to a collective European foreign policy.
He will not surge ahead with his own suggestions for a new start to the Middle East peace process, unlike French President Nicolas Sarkozy. He also won't warn the Palestinians to avoid a showdown with the US in the UN Security Council. Both positions would be too controversial. The Belgian will name only the fundamental elements of a peace settlement (a Palestinian state based on the 1967 borders, Israel's special need for security). And he will recommend a renewal of talks between Israel and the Palestinians.
Much Depends on Palestinian Approach
The empty statement will show that van Rompuy wishes to avoid a specific foreign policy profile for fear of resentment among EU members. But it also shows how at odds the Europeans remain on the Palestinian question.
The potential vote in the UN Security Council and in the UN General Assembly will expose these differences. "I don't believe that we will see a unified position of all 27 EU countries," says Nick Witney of the European Council of Foreign Relations.
One important variable is which proposal the Palestinians submit on Friday. Will they insist on full membership, which would have to be discussed in the Security Council? Or will they be content with an improved observer status, which can be decided upon by the General Assembly?
President Mahmoud Abbas is expected to submit a request for full membership after his UN speech on Friday in order to not disappoint his constituents back home. But Abbas does seem willing to submit to pressure from US President Barack Obama and most of Europe to accept a delay on the vote. This would give diplomats time to negotiate a new peace plan between Israel and the Palestinians, after which they could settle the question of UN membership.
European Votes Remain Secret
Which way European representatives might vote is likely to remain as protected as a state secret until the end. The 27 EU foreign ministers have all agreed not to make premature decisions in public. But past statements help construct a likely scenario: On an immediate vote on the Security Council, the German government would vote with the US in rejecting the Abbas plan.
Following accusations of unreliable foreign-policy decisions in recent months, Berlin has a strong interest in staying by America's side. France and Great Britain will likely abstain from voting, with a view toward the US, though they're inclined to favorable decisions on Palestine. But everyone in New York is working feverishly to make sure this scenario doesn't come to pass.
Berlin's Stance Unclear
But even for the Vatican option, they would lack full European backing. About 20 of the 27 EU member states would probably vote for it. But a handful -- including the Czech Republic, Italy and the Netherlands -- would likely oppose any such status enhancement. Berlin's position remains unclear.
Witney suggests that an overwhelming vote in favor of admitting the Palestinians would actually be useful for the Americans. "The US government would hate being isolated," the foreign policy expert says. "But it would give them more control over Israel again." If Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu saw the Europeans side with the Palestinians, Witney added, he would be forced to give greater consideration to his most important allies.

U.Va. Alumnus, U.S. Senator John Warner, To Give 175th University Of Virginia Commencement Address, Sunday, May 16
February 18, 2004 -- John Warner, a 27-year veteran of the U.S. Senate, will deliver the University of Virginia Commencement Address Sunday, May 16, on the Lawn at U.Va.
A 1953 graduate of the U.Va. School of Law, Warner will speak at 10 a.m. during Final Exercises before more than 30,000 anticipated students and guests.
Warner, a Virginia Republican, was elected to his fifth Congressional term in November 2002. He is currently the third-longest-serving U.S. Senator in the history of the Commonwealth after Harry F. Byrd and Carter Glass.
Before entering the Senate, Warner conducted special assignments in government- to-government negotiations on military, scientific, economic, educational and cultural matters, which led to extensive national-security and foreign-affairs experience. He was a Department of Defense representative to the Law of the Sea talks in Geneva from 1969 to 1973, Undersecretary of the Navy from 1969 to 1972 and Secretary of the Navy from 1972 to 1974.
Warner also served as national administrator of the American Revolution Bicentennial Administration from 1974 to 1976. In 1956, he was appointed an assistant U.S. Attorney, and from 1960 to 1969, he was in private law practice, specializing in bank, securities and corporate cases.
In 1944, Warner voluntarily enlisted in the U.S. Navy. He was released from active duty in July 1946, and enrolled at Washington and Lee University, earning a bachelor's degree in basic engineering in 1949. He completed his law degree at U.Va. in 1953 after completing a second tour of active military duty in the U.S. Marine Corps.
U.Va. graduation weekend activities also include Valediction. Atiim Kiambu (Tiki) Barber, a professional football player and a 1997 graduate of the University of Virginia's McIntire School of Commerce, will give the Valedictory Address May 15 on the Lawn at U. Va. He will speak at 11 a.m.

Readability and comprehensibility of the "exercise lite" brochure. | |
MedLine Citation:
PMID: 7675569 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE |
Studies suggest that exercise literature tends to be very difficult to read and the writing not matched to the reading ability of the audience for which it was intended. Two studies aimed at describing the readability and comprehensibility of the recently developed U.S. Centers for Disease Control and American College of Sports Medicine "Exercise Lite" brochure were conducted. In Study 1, the brochure's readability was assessed using four different formulas. This study showed that the brochure was written at a level equivalent to that of a scientific journal article. In Study 2, 56 participants (two-thirds of whom were college graduates) were tested to assess whether they could comprehend the brochure's message. Results showed that, without supplemental instruction, the Exercise Lite brochure was incomprehensible for 69.6% (n = 39) of the subjects. |

Pico de Gallo
Pico de gallo, also known as salsa fresca "fresh sauce", is a simple Mexican condiment made primarily of chopped tomatoes, onions, and chilies. Cilantro, lime or lemon juice, cucumber, radish, or mango can be added. Pico de gallo, which means "rooster's beak" in Spanish, is a raw salsa in the sense that nothing is cooked, unlike most of the red salsas we see in Mexican and Southwestern cuisines which tend to use cooked tomatoes. As a result, pico de gallo tends to contain less liquid and thus is oftentimes used as main ingredient for tacos or fajitas.
There are a variety of theories surrounding why it is called "rooster's beak," from the beak-like shape of the chilies used to make it to the bird-like feed appearance of the sauce. Whatever the origins, the name and sauce is here to stay. I am addicted to making dips such as Mango Salsa and Guacamole, and I am glad to add this to my repertoire. I first made this as a condiment to my Baked Fish Tacos, which was inspired by my dinner at Barmarché. I enjoyed their amazing Crispy Bass Taquitos in soft-shelled flour tortillas with guacamole, pico de gallo & apple cider slaw and decided to try my hand at replicating the dish at home. Overall, I think was decently close!
Try the Chilean version of Pico de Gallo: Pebre & Chancho en Piedra (Chilean Salsa)
Pico de Gallo
Yields: about 3 cups
- 1 1/2 lb plum tomatoes, seeded and diced
- 3/4 C onion, finely chopped
- 1-2 fresh jalapeño chilies, seeded and chopped
- 1/2 C fresh cilantro, finely chopped
- 1 lime, juiced
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- Salt and black ground pepper to taste
Mix all the ingredients together in a medium bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Cover and chill until ready to serve.
Enjoy as a fresh and healthy salsa and add to your favorite dishes such as Shrimp Tacos with Mango Salsa or as pictured below with Baked Fish Tacos, Guacamole, and Apple Cider Slaw.

Subject: | Re: MySQL runs on 16-cores server | ||
View as plain text |
Hi, In what way can having more cores slow down MySQL (or any other app for that matter)? Are you simlpy referring to the fact that some mutlicore servers might be slower in single threaded preformance than a higher clocked single core system? If I have a mutlicore system with fast single threaded performance I wouldnt expect it to be slower in almost any cases with something like a mutliprocess database system, thanks Andy. Quoting mos <mos99@stripped>: > > Using more cores with MySQL doesn't mean it will run faster. In > fact, it could slow it down. Make sure you have done benchmarking > with your current computer so you can compare the difference. InnoDb > and MyISAM don't scale well with multi-cores I'm afraid. >

From the Editor
In his column this month, Rick Lehrbaum consolidates the embedded Linux arena into three basic categories: telecommunications infrastructure, handheld mobile devices and internet-edge devices (this includes server/gateway/firewall-type devices as well as digital set-top boxes). With the exception of the desktop, this includes just about everywhere one might expect to find Linux.
Rick has been tracking the progress of Linux in these areas for the last couple of years, reporting on tradeshows and devices that, exceptionally, ran Linux. However, that has changed very quickly, and now the trend that is impossible to ignore in Rick's columns is that the computing world is increasingly embedded, and embedded is increasingly Linux.
As Doc Searls has been saying often of late, "Linux has won." Consequently, the success stories that were so compelling two or three years ago about some company switching their servers to Linux have long since ceased to be news. This doesn't mean that there aren't fights to be fought and progress to be made, but it does mean that Linux and the open-source development model have certainly been proven as viable for every level of computing.
An indication of the success of Linux was the Open Source Development Lab's announcement at LinuxWorld, New York earlier this year of the Carrier-Grade Linux Working Group initiative—also discussed by Rick (LJ, May 2002). The group's goal is to aid in the creation of any component necessary to make Linux the best choice for carrier-grade applications.
In a related event, Ibrahim Haddad, whom many readers will recognize as a fairly regular contributor to LJ, e-mailed me recently to let me know that, after three years of hard labor, Ericsson is taking some of his group's work to the Open Source community. Ibrahim works as a researcher at the Ericsson Corporate Unit of Research in Montréal, Canada. The most important part of the work that is being open-sourced is an architecture for security on telecom-grade Linux clusters. It is called DSI (Distributed Security Infrastructure). Ericsson will be sponsoring its development and is looking to the Open Source community for help. They have officially joined the OSDL to work with other members of the Carrier-Grade Linux Working Group.
The DSI team has authored an article in this issue explaining the project (see page 92). The project's web site is not yet up, but anyone interested in contributing to it may contact any of the team members listed at the end of the article.

Looks nice, hold a lot! On the website, it appeared to be the same color as my antique bedroom set. When it arrived, I was very happy to see that it is a very close match. Assembly was a bit of a challenge, but only because it is a large piece and I needed a lot of floor space to lay all the parts out. I had to put some on the sofa, some on the table, and I put the drawers in the other room until I had the body put together. Once I got it organized, though, it went together easily. It's well designed, and sturdy enough for what i paid for it.

the top of the armoire was cracked on the front my husband & I assembled this together, it was not to complicated. We did not notice the damage until after we we had taken the parts out of the box as we assembled it and the top was one of the later parts. I was very disappointed about the damage but it was a toss up of taking everything apart and repackaging it and sending it back

Nice look, short space This was a bear to assemble but, overall, I like the look. The drawer space could go all the way back but, for some reason, it does not. I had hoped to replace one dresser with this unit but now find I need deeper drawers and may have to use the hanging space for stacked clothes.

Simple and great looking Was looking for a cherry armoire that would match the rest of my bedroom furniture. Went through a number of sites but always found armoire's that were either too small or too expensive. Finally settled on this as it was just the right size and for 250 bucks, would say it is worth it too. The piece came in two boxes. Which were pretty easy to set up in about an hour and a half. Was slightly disappointed with the drawers as it is actually shorter in length then the actual length of the armoire ( does not extend all the way back) thus not maximizing all the potential storage space. And the bottoms were also made out of thin fibreboard. All in all, good purchase but sometimes you cant win em all.

just what we needed We were looking for a versatile piece of furniture for a growing girl's room to put in a TV with game system along with storage for clothes. This was the perfect solution since her room is not very big. The measurements were the perfect fit for the room. The armoire wasn't an expensive piece of furniture but sturdy enough for her to use for a long time.

All about Jewelry Boxes - Selecting a Jewelry Armoire
If you love jewelry, keep your collection safe with jewelry boxes. You couldn't have guessed that the locket you received for your 12th birthday would lead to a complete jewelry takeover in your bedroom, closet and bathroom. You bought your first bangle bracelet in high school and a collection of sterling silver cocktail rings in college, and now your home is filled with your beloved jewelry treasures. Investing in a jewelry armoire will help you make sure that you wear your favorite pieces often and keep them safe. A jewelry armoire is a large jewelry box that has room for a large collection of necklaces, bracelets, rings, earrings and other accessories. These jewelry cabinets usually stand on the ground or are mounted onto the wall. Consider these tips when shopping for jewelry box armoires to invest in the best jewelry storage options for your home.
Top 5 Places for Jewelry Armoires
Stunning jewelry armoires exist in a variety of styles. Asian-inspired treasure chests, oversized sterling silver jewelry boxes, mirrored Art Deco armoires and supple leather chests may catch your eye, but how can you introduce them into your home? An accent jewelry armoire doesn't need to match your home's decor, but it should be conveniently and artfully placed.
Tips on Different Types of Jewelry Boxes
Keeping your jewelry safe and in good condition requires quality jewelry storage. Jewelry boxes feature a variety of designs; some are dainty keepsake boxes and some jewelry armoires are as large as your bedroom furniture. What type of jewelry case or jewelry organizer is right for you? It depends on the size of your jewelry collection and what kind of jewelry storage needs you have. A jewelry armoire is ideal for keeping a group of chains tangle-free, but a small jewelry box or chest can adequately store a large group of rings. As you update and expand your jewelry collection, you'll want to update your jewelry organizer system to match. Jewelry cases feature a variety of styles. Many are beautiful furniture accessories made of oak, rosewood and other fine woods and inlaid with mahogany or mother of pearl. Others have the classic travel-case design, with a carrying handle and leather or fabric exteriors. Use this guide to choose a jewelry box for your collection.
Quilts Buying Guide
Whether a quilt is spread over your bed, folded at the end of your bed, hanging over a quilt rack or just stacked in your armoire with other quilts and blankets, it is a piece of bedding to be used and treasured. Quilts offer luxurious comfort for sleeping, add visual warmth to a room, have a timeless appeal and charm and sometimes lend a vintage, historical feeling to your home and bedding. This quilt buying guide has been created to help you make informed choices as you shop for that special quilt for your home.

Byline: Bob Strauss Film CriticOf the dozens upon dozens of film festivals that unspool in the Los Angeles area each year, the American Film Institute's November shindig, centered at the ArcLight theater complex in Hollywood, strives to remain the class act of the bunch.
The organizers of AFI Fest 2005 Presented by Audi, as it's officially called, have done all they can to continue that tradition.
The effort is spearheaded by a batch of high-profile, awards-season hopefuls, starting with Thursday's sold-out, opening-night gala presentation of the Johnny Cash biopic ``Walk the Line,'' starring Joaquin Phoenix and Reese Witherspoon.
Over the ensuing 10 days, AFI will screen such other prize-seekers as ``Transamerica'' (Sunday), with desperate housewife Felicity Huffman going for a sex-change operation; ``The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada'' (Monday), Tommy Lee Jones' Cannes Film Festival award- winning contemporary Western; ``The World's Fastest Indian'' (Tuesday), starring Anthony Hopkins as a record-setting motorcycle racer; ``The Libertine'' (Nov. 11), starring Johnny Depp, as part of an in-person tribute to the actor; Neil (``The Crying Game'') Jordan's latest gender bender, ``Breakfast on Pluto'' (Nov. 12), starring ``Batman Begins'' and ``Red Eye'' villain Cillian Murphy; ``Mrs. Henderson Presents'' (Nov. 12), in which Judi Dench opens a strip club; and the swashbuckler ``Casanova'' (Nov. 13), with Heath Ledger and Sienna Miller.
Those films, of course, are just the festival's commercial tip. Feature films from 44 countries, including 10 nations' official entries for this year's foreign language Academy Award, are included among the 92 features scheduled. There are also slates of documentaries, American independent productions, short films and both international feature and documentary competitions.
The feature contest highlights the work of first- or second-time filmmakers who, according to AFI's director of programming, Nancy J. Collet, ``have a vision. Where you're like, 'Who is that person who made that film?' specifically, more than just, 'What a great cast or script, but a real visionary.' We look for people who are going to go on to great things in the future.''
Among other operations designed to help newer filmmakers interact with veterans, distributors and producers, AFI Fest 2005 continues the alliance begun last year with the overlapping American Film Market in Santa Monica, providing shuttles between the two venues, access to screenings, etc.
As for the general public, AFI director of festivals Christian Gaines promises more of the same old, same old - which, to him, means the best of the best.
``What I like the most about the festival is what remains the same about it from year to year,'' Gaines says. ``One of the things that really helps an L.A. film festival along is to maintain consistency and constancy in terms of location, programmatic focus, dates and, of course, film quality. We hope that the audience will just step back into the experience every year - and bring a friend.''
That said, fest goers at the ArcLight complex will be treated to a spectacular new reception area high above Sunset Boulevard.
``The biggest innovation this year is our rooftop village,'' Gaines notes. ``Necessity being the mother of invention, we found ourselves in need of thousands of square feet of staging space for the festival. In the past, we've used vacant retail space right across from the ArcLight. Thankfully, all of that space has now been rented, so we've moved to the seventh floor roof of the adjacent ArcLight parking structure.
``We have about 20,000 square feet that we're putting under roof, plus a courtyard. That is our box office and production space, as well as our registration desks, check-in, will-call, our Cinema Lounge hospitality area for badge- and pass-holders, media suites and the Loft, our big reception space. And it commands stunning views of downtown Los Angeles to the south and the Hollywood Hills to the north.''
The parking space the rooftop village covers will be compensated for in a structure directly across the street at Sunset Boulevard and Vine Street.
Sounds so Hollywood, doesn't it? But this festival is actually so cosmopolitan that it's devoting a good chunk of Nov. 12 to discussions about war movies, and an interview with George Clooney, presented by writers and critics from The New York Times.
Which, on the surface of it, sounds kind of weird for L.A.'s signature festival.
``I don't think so,'' Gaines counters. ``This Times Talks program is a branded program that they do in many places.''
Asked what really distinguishes AFI from all the other film festivals in town, Gaines responds that it's careful planning of every aspect.
``We think through and rehearse it from beginning to end,'' Gaines says. ``We care very deeply about the entire experience, and I think that's how we differentiate ourselves. More programmatically, we think that we're the festival of record for the best in international film at a great time of the year. We're able to be both a launchpad for the awards season, while also being a real discovery program for U.S. and world premieres and first- and second-time filmmakers.
``It's an infrastructure beyond just showing movies,'' he adds. ``Everything from the volunteer corps to putting on special events to bringing in hundreds of filmmakers from around the world to our transportation department - it takes all year long to create this village for 10 days. I don't think any other film festival in L.A. creates the centralized excitement that we do.''

Umbro Arturo Soccer Ball
Soccer ball
Perfect for our new soccer star at 5 years old, good quality!
March 12, 2015
Very good ball for it's price
Purchased 12 / Size 4 of these for an indoor football class. After one practice - so far very good. Nice feel and bounce . Not sure about the long term durability yet on using indoor - though I'm sure they will pick up scuff marks. For the price - very pleased, and the kids seemed to like them too.

Great product
Love the different colors. Great price. Nice packaging. Perfect gift!
January 14, 2015
Nice ball for the price!
Anxious to see how our holds up over time though. Inexpensive balls tend to lose air after they are a couple of month old, so we'll see. We've never had an Umbro brand ball before .
January 14, 2015
Best bang for your buck ball!
Can't beat the quality of this ball for the price. Would get again.
January 13, 2015
