we are switching over to vmware for our server. I want to make sure no performance is lost. What type of benchmark can I run on the old server and the new vmware server to determine performance?
Take the 2-minute tour ×
Server Fault is a question and answer site for system and network administrators. It's 100% free, no registration required.
You should use a benchmark that fits your server usage. If it is a mailserver you should benchmark mail delivery. If its a fileserver you should benchmark io. If you use it for computations you should run one of those.
IMHO you will loose performance if your vmware server does not have more power... If you want to have fun, try bonnie++.
As Wienczny states on like-for-like hardware you will lose some performance, depending on version of VMWare and usage type - should be between 5% and 20% unless it's VERY IO-bound.

The Forum, a.k.a. Great Western Forum is one of the area's entertainment hotspots. Former home of the Los Angeles Lakers and the Los Angeles Kings, the Forum now frequently hosts boxing matches, rock concerts with performers such as Aerosmith, Red Hot Chili Peppers, and Stevie Wonder, and other miscellaneous events. The glitzy, backlit Roman architecture seems a little out of place in Los Angeles, but it has its charms. As the Forum seats as many as 18,000 people, parking can be a little tough, so be prepared.

Datebook: May 29 - White Christmas Recorded 70 Years Ago
If you're dreaming of a white Christmas, you'll have to wait a while. "White Christmas" was recorded by Bing Crosby and the Ken Darby Singers, with the John Scott Trotter Orchestra, on this day in 1942, which would become the best-selling single of all-time, with over 50 million copies sold worldwide.
Irving Berlin wrote the song while staying at a hotel in La Quinta, California, and is said to have told his secretary, "Grab your pen and take down this song. I just wrote the best song I've ever written - heck, I just wrote the best song that anybody's ever written!" The song topped the Your Hit Parade and Billboard charts and resonated with World War II troops overseas. The original master suffered damage form being so overplayed, the version we hear today is most likely the 1947 re-recording.

The technical field to which this invention relates is orthopedic implants, in particular, orthopedic implants useful for anterior cruciate ligament repair procedures.
The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is a major component of the soft tissue in a human knee that is responsible for stability of the knee. In addition to the ACL, several other ligaments provide stability including the posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) and the medial and lateral collateral ligaments (MCL/LCL). It is not uncommon for a person to rupture or tear the ACL during various types of physical activities including sports, work, and the like. The tear or rupture can be caused by trauma such as impact, or by abrupt stopping or turning movements which cause exceptional forces to be transmitted to the ACL. Typically a torn or ruptured ACL cannot be repaired using conventional soft tissue repair procedures such as suturing, stapling, etc. It is necessary to replace the ACL with a graft. The graft may be an autograph harvested, for example, from the patient's patellar tendon or hamstring tendon, an allograft harvested from a cadaver, a xenograft, or an artificial man-made tendon. Tissue-engineered ligaments may also be available. In a typical ACL reconstruction, axial tunnels are drilled into the patient's tibia and femur by the surgeon using conventional surgical drills, drill guides and instruments. Once the knee is prepared, the graft is then inserted by the surgeon into the tibial and femoral tunnels, such that one end of the graft resides in each tunnel. The graft is adjusted by the surgeon to provide the desired range of motion. Finally, the graft is secured at both ends in a conventional manner to complete the ACL repair or reconstruction. For example, the graft ends may be secured with conventional interference screws, etc. An alternate method of securement is to use a cross-pin, in particular a femoral cross-pin. In this type of procedure, a transverse hole is drilled into the end of femur such that it intersects the femoral tunnel, and a guide wire is threaded through the transverse tunnel. A cannulated cross-pin is then inserted into the transverse tunnel over the guide wire and underneath a looped end of the graft in order to secure the graft in the femoral tunnel. The guide wire is then removed. If desired, the other end of the graft may be secured in the tibial tunnel by a tibial cross-pin in a similar manner.
Although the cannulated cross-pins known in this art are sufficient and adequate for their intended purposes, there is a continuing need in this art for improved cross-pins and surgical techniques. For example, there is a need for novel cross-pins that provide uni-cortical fixation and intraoperative removal or revision, eliminate or reduce the need for multiple size (length) implants, and simplify the need to make measurements and calculations in order to determine appropriate length.
Accordingly, there is a need in this art for novel cannulated cross-pins for use in ACL reconstruction procedures.
A novel cross-pin for use in ACL reconstruction procedures is disclosed. The cross-pin has an elongated member having a proximal end, a distal end, an outer surface, and a longitudinal axis. A nose member extends out from the distal end. The nose member has a proximal end and a distal end. There is an axial trough in the member extending through the outer surface. The trough has a proximal end, a distal end, a bottom, an open top and a passageway. There is a guide-wire opening in the distal end of the nose member. There is also an interior passage in the nose member that extends from the guide-wire opening through to the trough such that the passage is in communication with the guide wire opening and the trough.
Another aspect of the present invention is a method of securing the end of an ACL ligament implant in a bone tunnel using the above-described implantable cross-pin.
These and other aspects and characteristics of the present invention will become more apparent from the following description and accompanying drawings.
The cross-pins of the present invention can be made from a variety of conventional biocompatible materials useful in implants. The materials may be absorbable or non-absorbable. Examples of conventional non-absorbable materials include surgical stainless steel, nickel titanium alloys, ceramics, Delrin, polyethylene, and other non-absorbable polymers including, but not limited to, polypropylene, and Acetal. Examples of bioabsorbable materials include PLA, PGA, polydioxanone, polycaprolactone, copolymers thereof, and the like. The term "natural polymer" refers to polymers that are naturally occurring, as opposed to synthetic polymers. In embodiments where the device includes at least one synthetic polymer, suitable biocompatible synthetic polymers can include polymers selected from the group consisting of aliphatic polyesters, poly(amino acids), copoly(etheresters), polyalkylenes oxalaes, polyamides, tyrosine derived polycarbonates, poly(iminocarbonates), polyorthoesters, polyoxaesters, polyamidoesters, polyoxaesters containing amine groups, poly(anhydrides), polyphosphazenes, polyurethanes, poly(ether urethanes), poly(ester urethane) and blends thereof. Suitable synthetic polymers for use in the present invention can also include biosynthetic polymers based on sequences found in collagen, elastin, thrombin, fibronectin, starches, poly(amino acid), poly(propylene fumarate), geletin, alginate, pectin, fibrin, oxidized cellulose, chitin, chitosan, tropoelastin, hyaluronic acid, ribonucleic acids, deoxyribonucleic acids, polypeptides, proteins, polysaccharides, polynucleotides and combination thereof. The devices of the present invention may also be manufactured from conventional biocompatible natural polymers. If desired, the bioabsorbable materials may contain osteoinductive or osteoconductive materials, polymers and blends of polymers including but not limited to calcium hydroxyapatite, tricalcium phosphate, and the like.
The cross-pins of the present invention may be made using a variety of conventional manufacturing processes including machining, molding, etc., and combinations thereof.
As seen in
The cross-pin of the present is used in combination with a conventional guide wire in order to secure an ACL replacement ligament graft into a femoral tunnel. A variety of methods of securing ACL replacement ligament grafts in femoral tunnels using conventional cannulated cross-pins are known in the art. For example U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10/439,752, which is incorporated by reference, discloses a method of moving an ACL graft into a femoral tunnel and securing it with a cannulated cross-pin moved over a guide wire.
A method of using the novel cross-pins of the present invention to secure the end of a graft in a bone tunnel is now described. Referring to now to
The novel method and cross-pin 5 of the present invention have many advantages. The advantages include the ability to remove pin at time of surgery, and, no uni-cortical fixation (equal distribution of load across the device). In addition the pin is centered in the femoral tunnel and a single size implant may be used.
Although this invention has been shown and described with respect to detailed embodiments thereof, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes in form and detail thereof may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the claimed invention.

He said: "I get on really well with Mark, we've never had a bust up with any player at this club, and that's the truth. He just hasn't been fit. He's come back from one thing and then got another thing and they've all been genuine. All the other stuff you've seen is absolute garbage.
"He's my kind of player. He's got this fantastic ability to score goals in tight situations and to score goals at important times. That's what wins you football matches.
"You saw Fernando Torres the other night score a goal [against Internazionale] when a lot of players would have taken another touch and Mark comes into that category. He doesn't need a lot of space, he can do the unexpected. It's a massive bonus having him back for the last 10 games. At the moment, it looks as though he'll definitely be involved against Birmingham on Monday."

The night before we left, we got some bad (BAD) news...
Bartek called and said he couldnt go!
He said work was just too much. He was drowning and couldnt take time off.
Oh man. That was not what we wanted to hear.
It was such a bummer. I understood, but still.
This ride was supposed to be for him!
I was so upset, it was a long night.
Then, the next morning, just as we were getting ready to leave...
Bartek called back and said that he was going after all!
Way to add some drama to the ride, Bartek.
He said he would meet us at Scotts house, probably pretty late.
I didnt care what time he got there, as long as he showed up!
So, after a few hours on the slab,
Matt and I were the first ones to arrive at Scotts place.
Hey, someone has a new toy!
Only Walter was home to greet us.
Hes a great host, though.
I called Scott to let him know what was up.
He was stuck at work for a little bit but would be home in the evening.
Matt started in on the tires, while Walter supervised.
Man, our rim is looking pretty worked.
Hey, someone knew that Bartek was coming...
Next to arrive were Radek and Lica, all the way from BC...
Matt helped them unload the bikes.
Radek and the beast.
Lica picked up some cool stickers in South America, didnt he?
Im just impressed that he got the wheels finished in time - arent they flash?
Nice new D908
Radek, too.
Matt put Scotts new tire on - another D908.
We went with a Scorpion Rally rear.
Not as pricey as a 908, but still a good tire.
Scott came home next and did a little fiberglass work on Licas windscreen.
Ceasar rolled up just in time for dinner -
Hola Osito!
Osito came bearing (get it?) gifts - Oso Loco tee shirts!!
How frickin awesome is that??
Thank you, Osito!!
They're so great.
Radek took some pics of everyone hanging out.
I really wanted to give photo credit for each pic, but its just too confusing.
With all our photos combined, there are over 4700. Not counting screen captures!
Radek, Lica, Bartek and Osito all had some great shots - thanks, you guys!
So, for some strange reason, these dudes seemed to think we were going to be riding at night...
Hmmm. I wonder what gave them that idea?
Anyway, everyone had super awesome lights (except for us).
and, heres Osito installing his...
Finished product.
Of course, after that, there had to be a competition.
Oh my god, yall -
theyre gonna have a
dance off
light off!
I think Radek won?
Scott and Jo went all out for dinner - thick, juicy steaks and an assortment of salads.
It was incredible!!
So delicious! Blurry but HAPPY.
The bike work went on well into the night.
With 6 KTMs, everyone wanted to make sure they were prepared for the ride...
Bartek finally rolled up around midnight. You can see he had awesome lights, too.
He had had a long day of work, but the important thing was that he was here!
Now our little group was complete.
The next hurdle was going to be getting everyone up and ready to go at 6 in the morning.
It was going to be a 400+ mile day of Nevada desert.
You know the drill -
we had a long way to go and a short time to get there...
Radek had provided some inspiration -
Smokey and the Oso

Grace Bible Church to host regional missions conference
Conference spreads Word
Grace Bible Church in Olive Branch will host "Ekballo," a regional missions conference, Friday through Sunday in conjunction with Texas-based To Every Tribe Ministries.
Ekballo Mid-America will provide an opportunity for "those who go" and "those who send" to learn, network, and be challenged in this great and awesome responsibility. Potential missionaries, church leaders and members, and mission organization teams from the Mid-America region and beyond will benefit from attending.
"One aspect that this conference really drives home is that 'mission' is the work of the local church," To Every Tribe Ministries president David Sitton said. "Yet, many congregations have abdicated this responsibility and turn it over to mission agencies. What would it look like for your congregation to be a sending church? In 'The Sending Church' session, we will explore the role of a sending church and examples of how churches are reclaiming this responsibility for the advancement of the gospel."
Ekballo Mid-America will conduct seven sessions, including Grace Bible Church's regular worship service. The family-friendly event includes a "Children's Mission Workshop" on Saturday morning to introduce children to past and present missionaries and the gospel mission.
"Jesus Christ commands His people to proclaim the gospel to every creature and every nation," said Sitton. "He also expels — the meaning of ekballo — into every corner of the globe gospel harvesters who forsake all in this world to fulfill His mission. Those who go in this fashion create an opportunity for others to support them."
Conference participants can also spend one-on-one time networking with front-line missionaries, gospel laborers who are training the next wave of missionaries.
"We're delighted to be hosting this unique conference that unpacks so many aspects of mission work today," Grace Bible Church pastor Mark Webb said. "The family-friendly conference offers challenging speakers from To Every Tribe Ministries, workshops for 'goers' and 'senders,' a bookstore stocked with a variety of titles and missionary biographies, and displays of mission works and sending agencies."
Among the other workshops, attendees can find "Don't Complicate the Missionary Call," in which participants will be challenged to simplify their understanding of "the call" to the mission field and learn what it takes to actually get or send someone there; and "Unreached Peoples: Who and Where They Are, How and Why We Should Reach Them."
"The Great Commission is to make disciples of all nations," Sitton said. "Yet more than 2,000 years after the death and Resurrection of Jesus, 40 percent of the world's nations and/or people groups still have no access to the gospel. Who are these remaining unreached peoples? Where are they located? What will it take to reach them? Why should we care? In this session, we focus on the answers to these questions."
For more information on topics, speakers, and registration, visit Grace Bible Church's website at gracemessenger.com or call 662-895-1190. There is no cost to attend, but attendees should register in advance.
Grace Bible Church is at 7145 Malone Road.

How to Study Embryology: Degree Program Overviews
Read about embryology-related undergraduate and graduate degree programs. Learn about the coursework and requirements for admission. See popular career choices along with employment outlook statistics for biochemists and biophysicists.
Essential Information
Embryology is the study of early cellular development in human or animal embryos. Embryology is often featured as an elective class at the undergraduate or graduate degree levels. A degree in exclusively embryology is rare; however, students interested in learning more about embryology may pursue a bachelor's degree in biology, master's degree in clinical embryology or doctorate degree in developmental biology.
Bachelor's degree curricula may allow for the study of genetics, biochemistry and stem cells in upper-level classes. Theses or dissertations may be required of graduate students. These programs are highly laboratory and research intensive.
Bachelor's Degree in Biology
Students interested in an entry-level research career that focuses on embryology may wish to pursue a Bachelor of Science (B.S.) in Biology or the closely related B.S. in Biological Sciences. Typically completed in four years, these degree programs can provide students with fundamental laboratory skills and an overview of organismal development. Students interested in embryology may often choose elective courses in their final years that focus on molecular biology, developmental biology or medical technology. Most programs require students to earn a high school diploma or pass the General Educational Development (GED) examination prior to admission.
Program Coursework
Students spend their first year covering introductory classes in biology, physics, mathematics and chemistry. Later coursework may feature topics related to animal and human embryology, including the following:
- Eukaryotic reproduction
- Cell biology
- Invertebrate development
- Mammalian development
- Human genetics
Popular Career Options
Graduates are prepared for further study at the graduate level in veterinary medicine, medical science or developmental biology. Many graduates also pursue an entry-level position as a science technician in a stem cell research laboratory or fertility clinic. Other jobs that require knowledge of embryology could include the following:
- High school science teacher
- Laboratory animal husbandry
- Andrology science technician
Master of Science (M.S.) in Clinical Embryology
The M.S. in Clinical Embryology typically runs 2-3 years in length and provides a thorough grounding in reproductive technology lab techniques as well as advanced coursework in developmental biology. This program is primarily designed for physicians, students interested in pursuing advanced research or professionals interested in senior-level positions at assisted reproductive technology (ART) laboratories. While many students complete a thesis in their second year, some degree programs also offer a non-thesis option for students who wish to enter a non-academic field after graduation.
Education Prerequisites
Applicants must complete a bachelor's degree in a related subject, such as developmental biology, organismal biology or molecular and cell biology. In addition, most programs require applicants to submit scores from the Graduate Record Examination (GRE).
Program Coursework
Courses focus on analysis of human fertility, embryonic development and preservation of tissues. Students also learn laboratory techniques needed to work in an ART lab and courses often touch on the following topics:
- In-vitro fertilization
- Gynecology
- Biochemistry
- Cryopreservation
- Genetics
- Andrology
Popular Career Options
A graduate may pursue a career as an embryologist, advanced positions in research, or further education at the doctoral level. Popular careers that utilize skills in clinical embryology include the following:
- Senior clinical embryologist
- Andrology lab director
- Fertility clinic scientist
Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) in Developmental Biology
Students interested in pursuing advanced research and teaching may wish to pursue a Ph.D. in Developmental Biology. Though there is no set length, students typically complete this program in 5-6 years. Doctoral candidates spend their first year taking advanced core courses and completing lab work in cell biology, biochemistry and genetics. In the latter half of this Ph.D. program, students teach undergraduate classes and concentrate on an area of research for their dissertation.
Education Prerequisites
Doctoral candidates must have completed a bachelor's degree in a related subject, such as biology, molecular biology or developmental biology. Most programs require applicants to complete a qualifying examination to determine their knowledge of developmental biology. In addition, students are often required to submit scores from the GRE.
Program Coursework
Students interested in embryology may take several courses on embryonic development using both animal and human models. Several other areas of developmental biology touch on topics that relate to embryology and a student's curriculum could include the following:
- Morphogenesis
- Genetics
- Human development
- Cellular differentiation
- Stem cells
Employment Outlook and Salary Info
According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), employment of biochemists and biophysicists in general was expected to increase by 31% between the years 2010 and 2020, which is significantly faster than the average. Many of these jobs were expected to be in federally funded biomedical research. The BLS also reported that in 2012, the median annual wage of all biological scientists not classified in separate categories - like biochemistry or biophysics - was $72,700. About half of the biological scientists employed in the U.S. worked for the federal government; the next largest group was employed by colleges, universities and professional schools.

Oak Creek hopes to dictate water prices
Utility seeks autonomy from Public Service Commission
Oak Creek - In light of a recent Public Service Commission decision that has the city losing money on the water it sells to other communities, the Common Council voted last week to pursue state legislation that would allow the city to negotiate its own rates.
The legislative draft, written by Steven Yttri, general manager of the Oak Creek Water and Sewer Utility, would make it so municipal utilities that sell large amounts of water on a wholesale basis would not have their rates set by the PSC.
The council supported the draft, which has been sent to 21st Assembly District Rep. Mark Honadel. He hasn't given official backing to the proposal yet, as he said he is waiting on advice from the Legislative Council.
Yttri said the PSC has ordered a rate system that has Oak Creek residents paying a disproportionate amount compared to Franklin and Caledonia, communities to which the Oak Creek utility sells water. He asserted that the city isn't recouping its cost to provide water to other communities.
He hopes to shift about $200,000 of additional costs to the buyers of the water.
Among the complaints set against the PSC was the number of contested rate cases Oak Creek has been in, including their latest negotiations with Waukesha. Yttri said the rate cases have cost the city money, saying that the city has been in the rate application process since May 2011.
If the legislation is not adopted by the state, it could mark the end of discussions with Waukesha, Yttri said.
"If we're going to lose money on our existing wholesale customers, we're not going to add more wholesale customers and lose more money," he said.
The current negotiations between Oak Creek and Waukesha are up in the air after a ruling by the PSC to cut nearly $500,000 to Oak Creek from the $3.5 million in total sales between Oak Creek, Franklin and Caledonia, stemming to a rate case that began before the Waukesha-Oak Creek negotiations began.
"My constituents want a guarantee that whoever we sell water to is not getting water cheaper than what our residents are paying for water. That's the main concern," District 1 Alderman Dan Jakubczyk said in supporting the move to seek a legislative change.
Oak Creek Mayor Stephen Scaffidi was in line with the council in approving the resolution.
"You should be compensated for delivering water to your customers. At some point we need to make sure we're recovering our costs," he said.
There is no established date for a bill to be brought before the Assembly.

Originally written on Fox Sports Florida | Last updated 10/29/14
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) -- The Kansas City Royals' game against the Tampa Bay Rays was postponed on Thursday after heavy rain turned to sleet and snow during the middle of the fourth inning. No makeup date has been set. The Rays don't return to Kansas City again this season. The temperature was 41 degrees with winds gusting to 31 mph and rain just beginning to fall when the Royals' Ervin Santana threw the first pitch. The conditions continued to deteriorate as some of the players, dressed in stocking caps and gloves, ran in place to stay warm. When snow starting to fall, the creative team operating Kauffman Stadium played the Yule Log on the massive video screen in center field and the "Let It Snow" on the loudspeakers. The game was delayed 2 hours, 20 minutes when the umpires finally called it.

Chennai Corporation has also decided to procure utensils for the kitchens of all its 52 community halls across the city
Residents who use the community halls of Chennai Corporation for social gatherings can soon save more money.
The Corporation has decided to procure utensils for all its 52 community halls and make the halls available free of cost.
The civic body will also regulate the charges collected by contractors for catering and decorations at the halls.
Currently, residents of some areas are forced to fork out large sums of money for the exorbitant charges, despite having booked the halls for an affordable amount.
The Mayor, last year, announced that residents would be able to use the Corporation's community halls free of cost. The civic body's plan to waive the rental charges will soon be implemented.
The move is expected to help a large number of residents of middle and lower-income groups who depend on the facilities for holding functions ranging from wedding ceremonies to birthday celebrations. The existing rates for the halls vary between Rs. 350 and Rs. 15,000 per day, depending on their location.
The community halls are located in areas such as CIT Nagar, Velachery, Anna Nagar, T. Nagar, Royapettah, Guindy and Kotturpuram.
Some of the halls already have modern amenities including kitchens and adequate parking space.
The Corporation revamped the facility for booking the halls, following large-scale irregularities in their allotment, last year.
Now, residents have to directly approach the revenue department to avail of the services.

During the trade deadline we all sat and waited to see if Rick Nash would be traded teams like the Toronto Maple Leafs, San Jose Sharks, New York Rangers were in on Nash but neither would give in to GM Scott Howson's demands and back in middle of January when it was brought up that Columbus would be listening to offers for Rick Nash for the 1st time it was a question of why.
Well Howson went and revealed that reason yesterday speaking to the media saying this
"With respect to Rick Nash, he approached us and asked us to consider trading him. We agreed to accommodate his request as long as we could get a deal that would provide us with cornerstone pieces to help us to compete for a Stanley Cup championship in the coming years. It did not happen by 3 o'clock today. This is too important to our franchise and our fans to do a deal that is not in our best interests."
And despite those trade demands his price was still high in fact might have been way too high not that I blame him at all for it but now that you revealed that and Rick Nash's agent Joe Resnick went to TSN and Sportsnet last week announcing that his list of teams isn't changing or going to be any longer.
Today Rick Nash spoke to the media in regards to Howson revealing the trade request yesterday was more adamant today about the trade request but revealing that he still wanted to help the organization that drafted him 1st overall in 2002 and has been with the team ever since saying this.
"I was informed by management that there was a rebuild, a reshape, in the team and I personally felt I could be a huge part of that towards bringing assets in, In my view, that was the best thing for the team, the organization, and personally for my career."
So when you are Scott Howson and you couldn't get a deal with any of the teams on his list and have a really high asking price and his agent says that list of teams isn't changing is revealing the trade request going to help at all. If you're those teams that Rick Nash wants to go to and you now know this what is going to change at the draft or in the off-season that is going to change the offers.
The Leafs aren't willing to part with Jake Gardiner, the Sharks aren't willing to include Logan Couture, and the Rangers have said no to Michael Del Zotto so what later on is going to change that.
I really don't think that will in fact it might just made it worse and this might end up getting uglier the longer this continues odds are though with the mess Columbus is and the disaster this season was for the Blue Jackets. Scott Howson might not last long enough to be the one to pull the trigger on the trade. That might be what those teams are thinking.
Either that or this is going to be ugly the longer this continues

Axelrod: Huntsman Dropped Because He Wouldn't Sell His Soul
Obama's top strategist tells BuzzFeed in an email: "He was simply unwillingly to make the Faustian bargains with the Right that Romney has so willingly made."
Jon Huntsman's withdrawal offers an opportunity for Democrats to make a play for the sliver of moderate Republicans to whom he appealed — and also to make a broader point that the Republican Party is being pulled to the right, not to the left, by its most powerful forces.
"He was simply unwillingly to make the Faustian bargains with the Right that Romney has so willingly made," said David Axelrod, who is shaping Obama's re-election campaign.
That notion of a Republican Party — and of a superficially moderate Romney — hostage to Tea Party conservatives will be a central theme of the re-election campaign, and it's certainly a feature of Huntsman's failure to launch, if not the only one.
"He was a really poor candidate," shrugged another top Democrat. "He didn't get traction because he projected zero and managed to look really smug as he did so."

I can't say enough wonderful things about Mariela, Bubu, and my experience staying in Wilkamayu. From the very beginning, Mariela was incredibly responsive over email and made me feel welcome. Bubu was the perfect host while I was there, she even helped me organize transportation and suggested things to do around town. My private bungalow was lovely and the ideal home base for my Sacred Valley getaway. I loved reading in the garden, walking along the river, and exploring nearby Urubamba. Thank you, Mariela and Bubu, for making my vacation so special. I'll definitely be back!
It was a true pleasure to receive Maddy. A beautiful person, who came for a rest to the Sacred Valley and we are very happy to have met her expectations too. :) We hope she returns one day and 100% reccommend her as a guest to anyone she visits through the Airbnb world. Best of luck to her! A new friend!
We loved Mariela's bungalow. it is set amongst a beautiful garden and lawn with the surrounding hills and Urubamba river completing the surroundings. it was very comfortable and peaceful and very well equipped with everything you could wish for. mariela was in contact by phone and was extremely helpful in a personal situation when I had lost my wallet. she also provided us with a lovely driver, Rolando, who met us at the airport and drove us around the Sacred Valley the next day. We loved it here.
Our stay with Mariela at Cusco Country Riverside Apartment was absolutely wonderful. Mariela made us feel like family, taking us to ruins, markets, out for lunch and making amazing pisco sours. The apartment was cozy, clean and so lovely that it made it very difficult to get out and about to see the town or the ruins because we just wanted to hang around the beautiful grounds. We highly recommend staying here and will come back again when we can brave the 40+ hours of flying to get there form Australia!!
Mariela was an amazing host she can give the entire hospitality industry a lesson or 2 ! It was the most phenomenal stay at an Air B&B .She took amazing care of every little detail !! Anytime we needed a taxi or any guidance, from local restaurants to shopping she was on top of it. She has a great team the lady who helps Mariela out, Boo-Boo( That is her name) was outstanding and always available to help out ! It was a very memorable trip and we would go back anytime we can to this property. It was a feeling as if we were her personal guest! Highly Recommend staying at her Property !
Dear Harry and family,
Thanks so much for your kind comments. It is great to know you enjoyed your visit to our beloved Wilkamayu. It is our wish to make you feel at home and pampered at all times possible and we are thankful that you felt that way. Hope to stay in touch and to one day meet again. Best regards and wishes for you all! Mariela, Boo-boo, Simbo, Miski, Luna, Roy and Pepito :)
Staying at Mariela's place was the highlight of our trip. After traveling through Peru for a month it was such a comfortable and welcoming place for us. The cottage we were in felt like home and Mariela is one of the nicest people I've ever met. She really goes above and beyond to make you feel welcomed, she treated me and my wife like family. She really wants you to have a wonderful time in Peru and can help you plan anything to make your trip more enjoyable!
We had the most amazing time with Mariela and Bubu in Urubamba! My only wish is that we could have stayed longer . From the moment we contacted Mariela she was helpful and friendly. When we arrived, it felt like we had come home! The location was beautiful, situated on a river, quite a walk from the town but getting local transport was easy enough. She has 7 beautiful dogs - all friendly and fun to play with, but they are always around and in the house which we didn't mind at all. Mariela upgraded us to the cottage, which was very cosy and pretty. Had everything we needed incl some water and tea. And the shower was always hot. The bedroom was comfortable, and overall very spacious. Breakfast was great, with amazing coffee. Mariela helped us a lot with organizing activities around the Sacred Valley and where to go etc. Bubu even made us one of the local meals one night for dinner. We all had a great time drinking wine around the beautiful fire pit and chatting under the stars. We are so glad we could stay here on our trip and lucky to have met Mariela and Bubu!
Mariela and Charito, along with their amazing dogs are the best hosts you could ever ask for. They are honestly concerned that you have an incredible time while in Urumbamba. Mariela knows all the spots to visit, and the tours to take. She helped us every step along our trip, while at the same time making sure we had all the privacy we wanted during our stay. This is the type of airbnb experience that makes us love traveling this way. We didnt just find an amazing place to stay, we found real friends. Speaking of her place, it is magical. Her gated property is huge, lots to explore, including trails to the river. Beyond relaxing. She has put a lot of work into the apartments she has, they are super clean, and feel like home. Pictures, and words cannot do this place justice. And Mariela's breakfast, was one of the highlights of our trip! We've stayed at several airbnbs, and Mariela's is waaay better than average. The kind of place you walk into, and instantly realize you have made a perfect choice. We didnt just want to book a longer stay, we never wanted to leave! We can't say enough great things about this place. Stay here, you will love it. Mariela, Charito, and the dogs will shower you with love, and welcome you like family.

NORFOLK -- A designer drug being called 'bath salts' is posing health dangers across the nation including Hampton Roads.
'Bath salts' are not the ones you use in the tub or shower, but they're cleverly-marketed synthetic drugs found in shops across the country.
The product, which variations of can be legally purchased, gives users a high. Authorities claim it can cause hallucinations, paranoia and suicidal thoughts.
The drug is suspected of driving a man in Miami, Florida to attack and eat the flesh of a homeless man.
Major oil companies like Exxon, BP, and Citgo have sent gas stations in Virginia letters ordering them not to sell the drug.
Since 'bath salts' are made by street chemists, there's no way of knowing what's exactly in a certain product, similar to synthetic marijuana.

This chain allows me to hang feeders at any level I desire. It works great!
These are the best chains for bird feeders. They are easy to install, move, or remove and don't make your yard look ugly. You can also adjust the length based on where you clip the end. The clip feels study and I don't think it'll break easily unless you're really trying to break it. The large hook at the bottom end makes it easy to remove your feeder to refill. We have bought about 4 of these so far and they work perfectly.
It is very useful and convenient. Also does not sway as much in a strong wind as my usual hooks. I do wish it had a larger "s" hook.
Nice dark green. Darker than the picture on the computer screen.
Rust proof, well designed................I use it to hang bird feeders with and it works good, plenty long to loop it over a tree branch and hang low enough to fill up feeders.
Nice chain - lowered our birder feeder so that we could reach it easily from the tree. Haven't had it very long so how long it will last - time will tell.
This is a very good chain for either a bird feeder or chimes. It is a green color, hard to tell in the illustration, but that adds to its pleasing appearance. I will probably order more of these because they are handy for all sorts of porch things, especially.
Is a little small (chain wise). It does hold the feeder okay.
Well made chain with good fittings. I use it to hang a bird feeder but it has many more uses.

We have stayed here 3 times and always ask for a quiet room and there just aren't any. The good news is that this time the banging of the loading dock didn't start until 7 AM.
I agree with the other reviewers that the hotel needs an update. The sinks are inexpensive fake marble that has cracked surfaces and the carpets worn. As with all european hotels the rooms are small for the price.

In 1993, he had been hired with the following mandate: selling the game in the U.S. market, end labor unrest, complete expansion plans, and modernize the views of the "old-guard" within the ownership ranks. Well, he has gone and done so, but the results were a complete bust.
The U.S. hasn't bought - NHL still places a distant fourth in revenue among the four major professional leagues. Last year, American teams have a net loss of $47.9 million in total. Only six American franchises have posted net profits, and even then, four of them have single-digit profit margins, and owe much of it to Canadian viewership on the road.
Canadian teams, by contrast, have netted $169 million in profits.
The expansion plan has only hurt the league. For one, he's expanded into busted markets in the Sun Belt, one of the key reasons for the profit losses. Two, expansion has watered down the talent of the NHL. The league has to accept lesser talent to fill the large number of roster spots, and hence, the better players don't have people to fully ascenuate them. And meanwhile, teams like Columbus, Phoenix, and until recently Florida, well they are left to languish at the bottom of the league, taking up only space.
But the motherload of all his problems: the labour dispute. Never before had any professional league been shut down three times, and conincidentally, this has happened over a span of 19 years, under one commissioner. Bettman has shown himself to be a terrible negotiator who cannot get a deal resolved with the NHLPA, nor does he even care to save the game.
After this third lockout, I say the camel's back has been broken. Bettman's time is over, and I have two candidates in mind to replace him.
Don Cherry is an ideal candidate. He's practical and down to earth, and he understands the true nature of the game of hockey. More importantly, he cares about the game more than any other fan and he won't try and change the game with ridiculous rules that take the fun out of it.
To back it all up, he's a very strong personality who will deal with the guff with players and owners alike. He'll tell both sides to get things in order, and when one side steps out of line, he will take action, but that won't include shutting down an entire season.
Cherry man not be a salesman or finance guy like Bettman, but sometimes, having money people in the job doesn't work. Was Microsoft better under Ballmer than it was under Gates? I didn't think so. But Cherry does understand enough about profits to know why the league is floundering, and he will take action to curb it.
Only drawback is Cherry's rough, polarizing persona, not receptive in America. Nonetheless, a commissioner needs to get tough so that's forgivable.
The other candidate is Wayne Gretzky. A very different personality from Cherry, Gretzky still nonetheless cares more about hockey than any hockey fan or player, and understands the game better than anyone in history. He too is practical and down to earth.
What he lacks in assertiveness (at least compared to Cherry), he makes up for in universal respect from the entire hockey world. But Gretzky too can be assertive when it's called for, and combined with this respect, he can negotiate with players and owners to keep the show rolling.
He hasn't been able to sell the sport to Phoenix as a coach, but he at least has a very attractive and respectable image, and unlike Cherry, he at least has some business experience. And he knows how to work the little things, like what will work and what won't (like hockey in Phoenix). I'm sure he can also do better than Bettman with securing the contract.
So yeah, here are my two top choices. What will it be, Commissioner's Corner on HNIC? Or Number 99? Or how about someone else, like Ron McLean?
