You don't have to actually be in Florence to give a nod to Italy. Anyone anywhere could go for a fabulously LOW budget, minimal, and still totally chic reception by decorating your tables with rolls of white paper, bread, wine, and dipping supplies.

A Rosy Reception
So another image I'd like to highlight from this week's inspiration board is this dinner scene photographed by Johnny Miller. Sometimes its harder to figure out what to do with a simple indoor space but this image shows us how to take full advantage of blank white walls and turn them into a really moody,… Read more »
Decorating with fruit
Keep in mind that you don't have to bring all your decor to your destination wedding. You can easily pick up a crate of clementines (or whatever else happens to fit into your color palette) at a local market and use those to add color and life to your setting. Pile them up, scatter them… Read more »
South Carolina Cool
I was invited back in June by the lovely ladies over at Southern Weddings to create a southern inspired table-scape for their newest issue which is now out on newsstands. I teamed up with my favorite gal, Joy Thigpen, who designed a table around old engine parts resembling flowers she found at a local dump…. Read more »

Congress joins the fray as protests mount over strategic sourcing

SBA finds fault with GSA's strategic sourcing analysis for office supplies
SBA said GSA's impact analysis failed on two main accounts. SBA said it disagreed on GSA's claim that OS3 is a follow-on contract to OS2 and therefore is not a consolidation of contract requirements subject to the provisions of the Small Business Act. SBA also said GSA's argument that it is "contrary to law" to provide an economic analysis on the consequences of small business on a consolidated contract is wrong.

I.H. Manudev won a dramatic Group E match against Syrian Karam Fatima to book a pre-quarterfinal berth and become one of the three Indian players to reach the knock-out stage of the Asian snooker championship at the Yeshwant Club here on Tuesday.
Manudev managed a hard-earned 39-54, 50-84, 60-43, 73(73)-35, 52-50, 6-84, 65-32 victory in a contest that lasted nearly three hours.
Aditya Mehta posted a comfortable 75-8, 59-45, 66-24, 49-11 win against Philippines' Alvin Ambatali Barbero to ensure a slot in the pre-quarterfinals. This was his third victory in a row in Group H. Pankaj Advani had already made it to the last 16 following his three victories in Group B. In a Group F engagement, Kamal Chawla got the better of Pakistan's Imran Shahzad 0-111(85), 96-23, 58-26, 72-32, 69-34 to stay in the race for a place in the knock-out phase. The lone home player to lose on the fourth day was Lucky Vatnani, who went down to Syrian Omar Alkojah 78-48, 84-21, 54-21, 5-70, 28-66, 60-20 in Group G. The cueists from Syria, being coached by S. Jairaj from India, came up with gritty performances to torment the Indian players.
Manudev, who was beaten comprehensively in the first two frames, found his rhythm and made some good pots to pocket the next three. In fact, he was lucky to clinch the fifth frame as Fatima, leading 50-39, could not pot the last two non-red balls.
Thrilling finale
The final frame was a thriller all the way. Manudev grabbed a 65-0 lead and needed just one more pot to win the match. However, he messed up his shot and allowed Fatima to catch up. The Syrian was sailing smoothly before missing a crucial black pot which cost him the match.
Manudev was a relieved man after the win. "I realised my mistake after playing that shot (in the last frame). But, he (Fatima) played well," said the Bangalore-based player.

Best jazz club
The magic of El Chapultepec is hardly a secret. The small, smoky rectangle of a club has a long history of hosting both local and traveling jazz greats, and owner Jerry Krantz's involvement with and interest in Denver's lively jazz scene is well known. Over the past several years, the Pec's location in the heart of LoDo has pretty much served as a guarantee that the place will be jumpin' no matter what night of the week it is, even if the people clamoring for booths and bar space couldn't tell Thelonious Monk from Mickey Mouse. No matter: Even when relegated to the standing-room-only sections of the bar, a person would be hard-pressed not to feel the energy surging through the place. Whether it rises out of the consistently excellent duos, trios and quartets that grace the stage night after night or expresses itself in the lively exchanges that take place between the folks on the floor, it's there.

AMY BIANCOLLI, Copyright 2009 Houston Chronicle | March 26, 2009
Photo By MILENA BOTOVA:/Sony Pictures ClassicsThe Russian film 12 is a remake of Sidney Lumet's 12 Angry Men, based on the compelling story of one dissenting juror in a murder case.
A few minutes into 12, a bailiff leads a dozen weary jurors past half-finished renovations and down corridors spilling with children, all the way to an empty Moscow gym.
The jury room is being remodeled, he explains. And the courthouse abuts a school. So the gymnasium, with its trophies and nets and cast-off underwear, will have to do. But not to worry — the jurors won't be there long. "Your case is simple," he assures them. "You'll be done in 20 minutes."
Famous last words. The bailiff must have been reared under an oppressive Communist regime, because it's clear he never saw 12 Angry Men — either Reginald Rose's 1954 teleplay or Sidney Lumet's 1957 film. He'll learn soon enough that you can't hurry justice. They all will. Russia might be a latecomer to democracy and the particulars of the jury system, but this is, after all, the land that gave us Dostoevsky. These folks know their way around crime and punishment. As a juror observes in the thick of it all, "Everything here is very Russian somehow."
In Nikita Mikhalkov's overwrought, overlong yet mesmerizing adaptation, Rose's proud American powwow on reasonable doubt gets a gloomy Eurasian makeover. What's most surprising is how well the script translates. All the old head-butting tensions and prejudices apply, only now they're addressing Russian-Chechen enmity and the tapped-out cynicism of a citizenry worn thin by corruption.
The set-up remains much the same — 12 anonymous jurors debate the guilt of a teenager accused of killing his father — as does the structure, a methodical breakdown of evidence and objections. The foreman (Mikhalkov himself) calls for a quick move to convict. But the unanimous vote is derailed by one lone holdout (Sergei Makovetsky), a mild-mannered businessman who suggests that a kid facing life in prison (in the original, it's the electric chair) might deserve a few minutes of deliberation.
The loudest outcry comes from a bigoted taxi driver (Sergey Garmash) with a joker's grin and a Moe Howard bowl cut. But the jurors begin to reason things out. They consider the accused: an orphaned Chechen reared by the ex-Russian officer he allegedly murdered. They consider the eyewitnesses: an old man in the flat below, a lady across the street. They consider the evidence: an engraved Chechen knife. They reassemble the crime scene and reenact the killing. Most of all, they take turns delivering intimate and impassioned testimonials on guilt and human frailty.
Just about everyone gets his own soliloquy. We hear from the guy scribbling doggerel. (What rhymes with Julie? Patchouli.) From the man with a drunken uncle. From the sad Pagliacci who describes the one true laugh he ever earned. The upshot is some vigorous acting from all corners, but the jurors seem to be basing their votes more on personal revelation ("I'm for kindness") than solid forensic proof. And it feels a bit windy, after a while. After sitting through one such monologue, a captive listener asks: "What does all that have to do with the case?"
They might be locked inside the gym, but Mikhalkov (whose Burnt by the Sun took the foreign film Oscar in 1995) draws the audience out with flashbacks to Chechnya and brief shots of the boy in his cell. He also puts a new kink or two in the ending. Yet the film's chief innovation is his extravagantly hot-blooded direction, which ramps up confrontations between jurors until they're borderline demented; that evil-looking knife gets a workout. At times the movie seems drunk on machismo, buzzing with nerves and the raw physical threat of men squaring off.
Some things haven't changed. A quick montage at the start establishes the femininity of judge and lawyers, but those jurors muscling it out are all male — and middle-aged or older. There's still no room for women here, angry or otherwise.

Is there a way to turn the touch screen off for cleaning without it coming back on once it is touched? I am aware of going to http://teslatap.com/dark/ with the web browser to get a large portion to become dark, but it is still difficult to clean the entire screen without a lot of weird things happening to the car. Support told me to sit in the passenger seat with the doors locked, but that did not work for me. I also sat in the passenger seat without the fob near the car and still no luck.
Reboot and use the time it takes to do that to clean the screen - I have not tried this but it should work.
@Carefree is correct, I have done this & it works well
Thanks, I also just discovered that a micro cloth folded twice works as well.
Can't you park it in your driveway, leave the driver-side door open, but take the FOB into the house, which should shut the screen down?
Tonight, I decided to clean my main touchscreen for the first time in 4 weeks. I rebooted the touchscreen while I wiped the entire panel with a "Windex electronic wipe" by Johnson (nothing fancy--purchased at a local supermarket but made for wiping electronic screens). The reboot process gave me enough time to wet and wipe off all the fingerprints off of the entire screen, and once the panel came back on, I buffed it to a residue free gloss with a triple folded over microfiber cloth. Apparently, the panel doesn't detect user input if you touch it with a thick cloth, so you can buff away without making the touch panel go crazy.
The screen is now back to all of it's print free glory!
Here's the link to the wipes I used:
Hope this helps my fellow MS Owners!
Try Targus CleanVu pads. They work great. I highly recommend them.
I believe that if you use gloves to clean the screen, you will not activate the controls. I tried this once already and it seemed to work. I'm sure it depends on the gloves.

The number of Buddhists worldwide varies widely depending on who you ask, but most religious theorists speculate there are at least 350 million people practicing Buddhism, predominantly in Asian countries such as Bhutan, Burma, Cambodia, and Vietnam. The religion has, however, gained more followers across the world, with more Americans and Western Europeans, for example, exploring karma and the teachings of Siddhartha Gautama, or Buddha.
Despite the growing numbers of Buddhists, however, scholarships for college students practicing Buddhism remain fairly uncommon. Don't get too discouraged, too. Scholarships by type that get this specific are often not as competitive as awards based on more broad criteria, such as academic achievement or financial need. Buddhist scholarships are also available to students looking to study the religion on the undergraduate or graduate level, so if you're a religious studies major, consider looking for awards based on the religion you're interested in exploring further.
To view scholarship information for some examples of Buddhist scholarships, click the links below. For a more complete list of scholarship opportunities, religious and otherwise, conduct a free college scholarship search.
Students interested in religious studies focused on Buddhism rather than practicing the religion may have a number of options available to them in terms of funding those pursuits. Naropa University, for example, offers the $15,000 Frederick P. Lenz Foundation Merit Scholarship to support the studies of those who will go on to make significant contributions to American Buddhism. The school also offers a Monastic Scholarship to one (or two) students each year who are an ordained monk or nun of any religious order. Preference is given to applicants who have chosen monasticism as a lifelong path and whose commitments or vows include restrictions on future income (i.e. vows of poverty or the like.) Whether you're Buddhist or looking to study the religion's practices, make sure you know of all the awards offers by your university.

Fires in Northwest India
June 19, 2013
Hundreds of fires were burning in northwest India when the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on NASA's Aqua satellite acquired this image on October 26, 2010. The fires are outlined in red. Though no single fire is large or particularly smoky, the fires cumulatively produce a heavy veil of smoke that swaths northern India and Pakistan. This cluster of fires burns every year in October and November. The fires are in an agricultural region where October marks the end of the Kharif crop (autumn crop) and the beginning of the Rabi crop (spring crop). The fires were set by farmers, probably clearing the land between harvest and planting. Credit: NASA image courtesy the MODIS Rapid Response Team at NASA GSFC. Caption by Holli Riebeek.

The CFPB released a report regarding certain actions the CFPB discovered during its supervision of the payday, debt collection, and consumer reporting industries. The report, which covers the CFPB's supervision of those industries between November 2013 and February 2014, notes that "many companies had systemic flaws in their compliance management systems." With respect to payday lending, the CFPB found several problems, including: (1) lenders were allegedly deceiving consumers in the collection of debt; (2) lenders were harassing borrowers and engaged in workplace collection visits and (3) third-party debt collectors acting as service providers to creditors allegedly violated the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act and the Dodd-Frank Act's prohibition on unfair, deceptive and abusive acts and practices (e.g., allegedly making false threats of litigation and referral for criminal prosecution). The report also found several issues regarding the debt collection industry, including, among others issues, failure to investigate consumer credit report disputes in violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act. The report also notes that some consumer reporting agencies were improperly handling consumer credit report dispute documents and were encouraging consumers to file disputes online or by phone, but were then refusing to accept such disputes.

gadget,,,tempted as i am to take my destiny in my own hands and buy top-notch bearings AND install them myself;;;;in this F800GS rear bearing fiasco,,,i am inclined to force BMW to chronical the problem via a work order and pay for the parts n labor,,,we the consumer have already paid for their assumed/reputed/advertised superior QUALITY and workmanship....it is extremely counter-productive for us to fix it ourselves in this scenario,,we are essentially enablers. ,,,and IF as i suspect the bore is too small on the disc side,,,better bearings will NOT solve the problem,,,the hub needs to be bored out
i try not to buy chinese because i do not support their labor/business practices....although it has been getting ever harder to do that these days,,,
and i try to use the heat n freeze technique as often as i can,,especially on the hi end wheels we build and service,,,poor install/removal techniques i'd say shorten the life span of your bearings more than anything else.

Over the past decade, the internet has been pushing open the gates of Jewish learning to wider audiences. Online ask-the-rabbis field questions from around the world, teachers give shiurum via computer using voice-over technology and if you miss shul on Shabbat, you can still catch the rabbi's sermon the next day on a podcast. But a recently launched venture is taking virtual Torah to a new plane.
When you think of prize Judaica, what probably comes to mind are antique books or the silver bells and breastplates that adorn a Sefer Torah. But a new Jewish Museum exhibition that has just opened in London features another type of religious artistry - the mantles in which the Torah is dressed.
Some of the "sacred textiles" that have been in the possession of the Spanish and Portuguese Jews' Congregation for three centuries have gone on display at the historic Bevis Marks Synagogue in the East End.
Faith against Reason: Religious Reform and the British CHief Rabbinate, 1840-1990
Meir Persoff
Vallentine Mitchell, £50, £19.95 pb
It may be coincidence that, within the past two years, three books have appeared on the subject of the British Chief Rabbinate. This perhaps indicates that religious hierarchy and authority are largely becoming relegated to the status of historical curiosity, with most committed young Jews owing allegiance to their own individual and charismatic spiritual gurus.
Two Israeli scholars have put their necks on the line to try to answer one of the most controversial questions in Orthodox Judaism today: what role can women take in public worship?
In the last decade, around two dozen "partnership minyanim" have been founded in Israel and the USA. These congregations have tried to pioneer services that increase women's participation, while operating within the parameters of Orthodox religious law. But they have faced two major problems.
The debate about the Tanya is about values rather than freedom of speech, as some have contended.
The Hebrew Bible and classical rabbinic sources contain texts which, for example, command us to look after the stranger within our midst as we were once strangers in the Land of Egypt. These sources inspire and provide a basis for living in today's society.
In contrast, other texts have, in common with almost all classical literature, the completely opposite viewpoint and clash with modern sensibilities.
This week we begin the cycle of Torah readings again, and read the account of Creation. All peoples have sacred narratives about the Creation of the world - but why do we turn right back to the beginning, again and again each year? Why don't we start our narrative with the first ancestors of our people, Abraham and Sarah?
According to a recent report from Nasa scientists, if current rainy weather patterns continue, we could face worldwide food shortages as a result of widespread ruin of crops. Where does this leave our prayers this year for wind and rain?
The latter half of Succot focuses on water, parties thrown in honour of the festival are called "Water-drawing Simchah" (Simchat Beit Hashoevah) to commemorate water libations in Temple times and the last day of Succot, Hoshana Rabba, is dubbed "Day of Judgment for Water".
This week's festival has become an excuse for binge drinking. Where is the justification?
If one thing is certain about Simchat Torah, it is that, by late afternoon, at least one youngster from an Orthodox neighbourhood will be having his stomach pumped. It happens every year in North-West London, usually Hendon or Edgware, or in Manchester's Broughton Park district.
Simchat Torah is all about dancing. On the literal level, Jews (especially Chasidic Jews non-Chasidic Jews, young Jews, and Jews who just like to move) dance with the Torah, parading it around in circles and chains until finally someone shouts out "Ad Kan" - enough for this circuit of ecstasy. And symbolically, the whole holiday is a dance, circling around from end to beginning, concluding the autumn holiday season, refusing to admit of linearity.
What an era ours is. Iran is in pursuit of nuclear weapons, threatening to destroy Israel. The world seems suddenly full of rogue states, failed states, civil wars and ubiquitous terror. Financial markets are in turmoil. Rarely in my lifetime has the global economic and political future seemed less predictable. Ours is the age of uncertainty.

Bathing in the warmth of sunshine on your tanning bed delivers wonderful benefits. Your skin needs periodic tanning. Of course, you become darker and more beautiful, and there are additional healthful advantages.
Your body receives a vigorous dose of naturally produced Vitamin D, and this is delivered through sunshine. Without Vitamin D, your bones become brittle, you become more prone to cancer and heart disease, and the calcium absorption in your body decreases.
Here' a Summary of the Health Benefits of Tanning:
• Sunlight is the safest and best source of Vitamin D. This vitamin has more functions than you thought. It is linked to preventing cancer and heart disease. Traditionally, Vitamin D has always been connected to bone structure formation and calcium absorption.
• Studies indicate that exposure to the UV (ultraviolet) rays of the Sun help reduce blood pressure. Exposure to UV rays makes the heart stronger and helps it pump blood more efficiently, according to a recent study conducted at Tulane University.
• Dermatologists use heliotherapy (the exposure to sunlight) for treatment of acne, psoriasis, and other skin disorders.
• Cholesterol levels can be reduced. Because an efficient heart pumps blood more vigorously and flushes out fatty deposits on the interior arterial walls. An efficient heart reduces the risk of arteriosclerosis. In a study conducted by The American Society for the study of Arteriosclerosis, 97% of the subjects had a 13% decrease in cholesterol within two hours after the first exposure to sunlight.
Look for home tanning beds for sale online and reap the wonderful health benefits of basking in sunlight. Sunlight is a natural healer. When you harness the energy of the sun from home tanning beds for sale, you'll feel wonderful! Get started by browsing the affordable and high quality selection offered online at www.greattanningbeds.com. Compare home tanning beds, commercial tanning beds, lamps, financing options and so much more from the convenience of your personal computer!

Dimitar Berbatov has insisted he is happy at Tottenham and determined to repay the faith shown in him by the club.
The Bulgarian striker took the Premier League by storm last season following his transfer from Bayer Leverkusen,
but was linked with a move away from Spurs over the summer.
He stayed at White Hart Lane and is adamant that he has every intention of enjoying a long career with the club.
"I don't care for speculation. People talk about me because of what I did last season and that's normal," Berbatov
told the Sunday Mirror .
"Am I happy here? What do you think?
"Loyalty is important to me and there is a debt to be repaid. Spurs wanted me no matter what - where were these
other clubs then?
"If I leave it's because I'm no longer wanted. I won't ask for a move. I'm very settled here."

Graphics card advice

Posted November 22, 2012 at 1:41PM
I'm looking for advice about which graphics card would be most suitable. Here are my current specs (roughly):
i5 2500k 3.2Ghz 450W power supply 12Gb RAM 60Gb SSD & 500Gb SATA Can't remember the motherboard type - has plenty of PCI-[e] ports available though (currently only 1Gb shared graphics)
Budget: Approx. £100
I've only looked at Nvidia cards - the GTX650 & GTX560Ti, which didn't seem too bad for the cost. Any advice would be appreciated.

I would go for the GTX 560TI,have a look at the comparison here. But I do not think your current power supply will be enough you should have around 550W to be comfortable and you would need 2 6 pin power connectors.Specs. Here is the power specs for the GTX650 which need less power (400W) and only one 6 pin connector. Specs.

Thanks for the assistance Chronos, appreciated. However I've decided to go for a 7770.
Only because there's one on ebay in my local area and it's only £50, which is a bargain! It would probably cope better on my PSU too, since it only requires 450W (and comes with a free 6-4 pin adapter).

Could not see the one you mean on Ebay,I am assuming it is second hand then for that price?

Candidates who could not take the CAT-2009 exam due to technical glitches at the test labs in the first phase, can now sit for the examination in the second phase scheduled for January 30 and 31, 2010 convener of CAT-2009 said here on Friday.
"The second phase of CAT will be conducted on January 30 and 31, 2010," convener of CAT-2009 Satish Deodhar told PTI.
A detailed criterion for the candidates eligible for the second phase of exam has been posted on the CAT-IIM website, he added.
The first phase of CAT-2009, which was held from November 28 to December 8, 2009, was marred by glitches due to which students had to face difficulties and many of them could not appear for the test.
The candidates identified for the re-test in phase two would receive communication from Prometric by January 10, 2010, the CAT-IIM portal stated.
The results of CAT-2009 are likely to be declared by the third week of February 2010, it added.
The criterion for eligible candidates in phase-II of CAT-2009 has been arrived at after analysis of calls and e-mails received from the candidates, site reports, computer logs and information captured from blogs, the convener added.
The computer-based test was marred by technical glitches from the very first day as students faced problems in logging on to the computers at centres in Delhi, Mumbai, Pune, Chennai, Bangalore, Kolkata and Bhopal.
The glitches were attributed by the IIMs and Prometric, the American firm conducting the test, to virus attacks and some hardware problems.

EMC Isilon Scale-Out NAS Shatters Performance Test Records
SEATTLE, June 27, 2011 /PRNewswire/ — EMC Corporation (NYSE: EMC) today announced that the Isilon S200 scale-out NAS system is the new industry performance leader based on independent benchmark measurement testing by the Standard Performance Evaluation Corporation (SPEC®). According to the latest SPEC testing data – which measures networked file performance and overall response times – the EMC Isilon S200 scale-out NAS platform achieved record performance results, trumping competitors by more than double their closest results.
Benchmark Highlights:
- SPECsfs2008_nfs.v3 Results: 1.1 Million NFS IOPS – a 75% increase over closest results from any competitor
- SPECsfs2008_cifs Results: 1.6 Million CIFS IOPS – a 126% increase over closest results from any competitor
"We are all very excited about this achievement. The results are fantastic," said Sujal Patel, President, EMC Isilon. "On a per file system basis, we are 1710% faster than our closest competitor in CIFS IOPS and 176% faster than our closest competitor in NFS IOPS. The SPECsfs 2008 results are further validation of our competitive performance advantage for file-based workflows."
When compared to SPECsfs results from other vendors, the Isilon S200 performed as follows(1):
Peak CIFS Peak NFS Number of File Vendor IOPS IOPS Systems ------ --------- -------- --------------- EMC Isilon 1,612,778 1,112,705 1 ---------- --------- --------- --- Huawei Symantec 712,664 636,036 8 --------- ------- ------- --- IBM -- 403,326 1 --- --- ------- --- NetApp 64,292 190,675 2 ------ ------ ------- ---
The SPECsfs 2008 results demonstrate the superiority of EMC Isilon S200 and OneFS® operating system in delivering a single scale-out NAS system that excels in performance and capacity. The Isilon S200 meets the growing demands of Big Data with the ability to drive a high number of transactional I/Os with multiple workflows and to conduct multiple protocols in a single file system and single volume. Isilon eliminates the trade-off associated between performance and capacity, enabling customers to extract greater value from their business information quickly, collaboratively, and securely.
The recently introduced Isilon S200 system delivers over 1.6 million CIFS IOPS and 1.1 million NFS IOPS with over 85 gigabytes per second (GBps) of aggregate throughput, all from a single file system. The platform is the ideal solution for accelerating Big Data access in design and simulation, digital media, financial analysis, and enterprise file-based workflows.
The unique scale-out architecture of OneFS delivers true linear scalability, enabling customers to scale performance and capacity with the addition of each new node to the cluster and eliminating the need to ever choose between the two. EMC Isilon submitted results for the S200 across some of the most common customer configurations and demonstrated consistent linear scalability in clusters of seven, 14, 28, 56 and 140 nodes. By leveraging the leading-edge scalability and high transactional performance of the Isilon S200, users can easily and cost-effectively scale to meet the data-intensive demands of a wide variety of enterprise workloads.
"Providing our customers with the right tools so they get the maximum value out of their data is our top priority," Patel said. "Big Data is no longer a niche challenge. It's a business opportunity for all enterprises alike. Isilon is designed to help our users develop new insights into their data stores and become more competitive with their offerings by bringing better products to market faster."
"ESG Lab has confirmed that EMC has set another world record with the latest SPECsfs performance benchmark results," says Brian Garrett, Vice President, Enterprise Strategy Group Lab. "Adding processing power, bandwidth and capacity to a single file system is quick, easy and automated. Isilon is in the envious position in the market where they already have the kind of scale-out architecture required for the most demanding storage performance environments."
"The recently announced Isilon S200 platform is intended to speed time to market and maximize return on investment with ultrafast primary storage for mission-critical, highly transactional, and random-access file-based applications," said Benjamin Woo, Program Vice President, WW Storage Systems, IDC. "It scales with extremely demanding workflows and applications and delivers high performance in a small footprint."
In SPECsfs2008 testing, the scale-out NAS system was made up of a140-nodes EMC Isilon S200 powered by dual quad core Intel Xeon CPUs, 10,000 RPM 2.5-inch Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) drive technology, and a high performance solid state drive (SSD). This configuration was built on top of an intra-cluster communication layer on a QLogic 9120 DDR IB switch and connected to Dell R610 SPECsfs load generators by a Brocade MLXe32 10GbE router.
"With the growth of data-intensive applications and the adoption of cloud models, companies are increasingly challenged to cost-effectively scale and manage their storage environments," said Doug Ingraham, vice president, data center products at Brocade. "Brocade fabric-based networking solutions combined with EMC/Isilon S200 scale-out NAS system helps deliver non-stop performance and scale to meet the requirements for the most demanding data center environments."

Purchases on Black Friday?
Maybe the wrong board for this, if so I apologize. But just curious as to what everyone bought yesterday.
I bought some new C10s yesterday with a variety of string including-
Pacific Classic
I'm excited for everything to get here Wednesday! What did everyone buy themselves?
similar to you, ive bot 2 sticks of C10 Pros at a too good to resist price during the black friday sales
TE's sale on the C10's was VERY tempting!! $75 or so for a new C10?
Nice. But I spent a bunch on some old POGs and a Boron so no C10 for me:(
Sounds like you got some great deals as well tho!
I went after the Pure Storm Tour + GT, also at $79. I've been playing with the Pure Control Team for awhile. Figured I'd see what the updated technology can do.
I bought groceries.
I also bought c10s! YAY
Wow, the c10 sale was a total succes! I bought 3 and the new volkl black bag...
If it wasn't that heavy I'd buy one, great deal really for a racquet recently launched on the market.
That also shows how much money TW was making before, $89 per racquet at least (racquet sold previously for $159), insane profit, if they sold at $75, I can guarantee they're still making some bucks out of it.
does anyone know if BOSE speakers for the computers will ever go on slash price sale ? these don't get cut that much, maybe $20 only. not sure why?
Fedace attacks again!
Three Pure Storm GTs (2009 version, $79 each), two with free, Free, FREE VS Touch from TW (ordered the first one on Wednesday before they were giving away full bed VS Touch over the weekend).
Argh I spent way too much money on strings (Forten Sweet, Isospeed Baseline, Tourna BHB7), Yonex Supergraps, clothes for myself, clothes for my girlfriend, Babolat Drive shoes ($19.95!), dampeners...
The 20% discount gift card helps, but still, I am officially broke. Gonna just eat bread and drink water for the next few weeks.
Got 4 cases (12 cans per a case) of penn tennis balls for $19.99 each.
Already bought bb London and x10 racquets on tue but couldn't resist the c10 price. Went overboard and bought 3 pairs of barricade 6 shoes at $59, og sheep micro reel, and some Nike clothes for wifey so she doesn't complain. Lol.
Had to pay $41 to ship to Hawaii.
Yes I'm broke too.

Yale hangs with No. 13 Florida for awhile
NEW HAVEN, Conn. Javier Duren didn't look like a player whose team had just lost by 21 points. He had a smile on his face when he talked about Yale's effort in a 79-58 loss to No. 13 Florida on Sunday night.
The John J. Lee Amphitheater was packed. Even the four balconies behind the basket - one of which is for standees only - were full, the sign there's a special game going on.
"There aren't too many schools like us who get to bring Florida into our house," Duren said. "It was a great experience. There were a lot of positives. We didn't back down. We had a couple of mistakes in this game that we can fix before the Ivy season starts."
The Bulldogs were in the game until the final minutes of the first half when the Gators started a 26-3 run that spanned the halves. The Yale fans were making noise and so were all those visitors wearing Florida gear.
"It was a really great experience. It was a great atmosphere," said Duren who finished with 14 points. "There were a lot of moments in the first half where we were getting steals and scoring. It was amazing to see the crowd."
Yale coach James Jones played the what-if game between Florida's program which has two national championships and Yale, which was last in the NCAA tournament in 1962.
Jones was thinking what-ifs.
"Take out those 4 minutes, which you can't, and we're right there with them," he said referring to the opening minutes of the second half when the Gators pulled away.
Senior guard Kenny Boynton matched his career high with 28 points on 8-for-10 shooting from 3-point range for Florida.
Boynton, a 34 percent 3-point shooter for his career, had been struggling mightily recently. He was 7 for 39 from beyond the arc over his last six games. He was 1 for 2 at halftime from behind the 3-point line against Yale. That all changed in the second half.
Boynton made 7 of 9 3-point attempts in the second half.
"It was more of a mindset than just shooting good to get out of the slump," Boynton said.
Will Yeguette had 14 points and nine rebounds and Mike Rosario added 13 points for the Gators (10-2), whose losses were to No. 3 Arizona and No. 25 Kansas State. The Gators shot 60 percent from the field for the game (30 for 50), including 9 of 17 from 3-point range.
"Boynton's' 3s allowed them to continue their lead," Jones said. "We did a poor job of locating him too many times."
Justin Sears had 15 points and Armani Cotton had 12 for the Bulldogs (5-11), who have lost four of five.
Yale was hanging around for most of the first half, getting to 21-20 with 5:27 to play in the opening 20 minutes. Then came the run and it was a matter of Florida deciding how large a margin of victory it would be.

Southern Belle looking for her Gentleman
I'm witty, fun, smart, and a pretty good cook who is just starting to explore Miami. I moved here for work about six months ago and would love to meet a local who can show me all of the hidden gems--or a newbie like me who's down to do some exploring. I'm really laid back and would enjoy spending an afternoon having a great conversation and wandering around a new part of town with no real plans except whatever we end up getting into. I love trying new recipes but have a few stand-bys that I'm always ready to go back to. I think my current favorite is pulled pork, which cooks for seven hours but is totally worth the wait--and there's beer in the recipe, so you know it's good. I like eating out too, anywhere from fancy restaurants to dive bars to street vendors. As long as it's tasty, I'm there. I'm not really into the club scene, although I do like to dance (even if I'm not very good at it); I'd much rather spend a night hanging out and talking with cool people at a relaxed bar with good music. So if you're a relaxed, intelligent, fun-loving, talkative guy who can cook--and I mean actually cook, not just grill (although obviously that's awesome, too)--likes going on local adventures, can switch the radio station from rap to country without missing a beat, and knows how to properly use a semi-colon, hit me up because you sound like my kind of man.

Custom iPad Mini Case Announced by iGearUnlimited
Apple´s iPad Mini has proven to be one of the best selling gadgets this holiday season, and customers are looking for customized protection of the new device. Leading gadget case maker iGearUnlimited.com launched a hard shell iPad Mini case, featuring full-body protection, lightweight slim design, smart cover auto wake/sleep, multiple viewing angles, and allows full customization of the front cover using the customer´s uploaded artwork.
Chicago, USA (PRWEB) December 31, 2012
Through a recent survey, iGearUnlimited.com asked customers for the features they look for in a "perfect" iPad case, and here are the top 6 answers:
- Protect the iPad from all angles – front, back, all sides, and all corners
- Auto wake/sleep using Apple´s smart cover design
- Lightweight, thin profile, durable protection without adding bulk
- Full access to all ports, buttons, and controls
- Multiple viewing angles: completely flat on the table, slightly tilted for typing, and at least three vertical angles for movie watching
- Customizable design — users are looking for ways to put their favorite artwork on the case, such as sports team logos, photos of kids, couples, and pets, etc.
While some cases on the market have some of these features, finding a customized iPad case generally means giving up front protection, since almost all customizable cases only are available as a one-piece clip-on style for the back of the iPad. Although a magnet-attached smart cover can be added, many users are thinking twice about this combination because of the horror stories of users grabbing onto the cover while the iPad itself does a free fall.
The new Custom iPad Case from iGearUnlimited.com hits the mark on all points. The case is engineered to great precision and the iPad fits snugly. The lightweight hard shell case is made with polycarbonate, one of most durable materials around, protecting the iPad from daily use and abuse. The iPad is completely enclosed from all sides, with the precise cutouts for all ports and buttons. The Custom iPad Case comes with two sets of magnets — one set to activate the iPad´s auto wake/sleep feature, and another to keep the case closed when not in use. Using three strategically positioned hinges, the iPad can be positioned at five different viewing angles, from completely flat to vertically tilted for use in any situation.
Most importantly, the customization feature on iGear´s iPad case allows the user to personalize each iPad case. Customers can upload their own photo or vector artwork to the ordering website, scale and crop the image, add text, and approve the design immediately online. The design tool with built-in Facebook integration makes the process super-easy, even for novice users, and the HTML5-based customization engine means it can be used on virtually all mobile devices, including the very iPad the case for which is being designed.
"It is a nice finished product and certainly unique." said Nancy Gravley, product reviewer at TheMacObserver, "A great gift for a new mom or dad and a good promo idea for a business that wants their company logo visible everywhere."
The iPad Mini Custom Case is available from iGearUnlimited.com. Single units are priced at $79.99, with quantity discounts available. Please contact iGearUnlimited.com for bulk pricing.

Welcome !
Welcome to the brand new France board.
What we would like here is develop a thorough research of all french players and prospects that make the news, either in Europe or in North America.
Please, use english as your first language. That doesn't mean we'll censor any french post, but as a general guideline, we're part of an english-speaking community and out of respect for the non-french speakers, infos and stuff should be posted in english.
Don't hesitate to PM me for any info or question.
congratulations on the board, I appreciated watching "the French Movement" spread
As for the Ducks French connection, Eddie Ferhi is 1-1-2 with a 2.90 GAA and .902 Sv%, not as good as he was in Sacred Heart, but he still has a lot of potential
YEAH! We've got our French board now! BTW, thanks a lot to Buffaloed for this one! :handclap: :handclap: :handclap:
i know another french guy that posts here named achilles...haven't seen him around for months though...as far as language, we just need to learn french... ;)
ahem, please translate if you post in french...gracias. :D

As of Saturday, December 8, 2012
© Copyright 2015 Albany Herald
A working class hero is something to be.
— John Lennon (respect)
Correspondence: "You think you know so much, but you're always talking about something that you think is wrong. I never see you offer any solutions."
Response: "I don't think anyone would listen too closely to my ideas, but ..."
... Since you asked, I have come up with a carefully-considered five-step program that will genuinely help this community, state, region and country with their financial woes. This is not, as is typical, a knee-jerk reaction: "Just fire everybody ..." "Quit giving anybody anything ..." "Close everything down ..." Implementation would be easy, and the end results would be savings or increased income.
1. CURTAIL TRAVEL (for the local school system): When David Maschke ran for the Dougherty County School Board four years ago, he asked for and received a copy of travel expenses paid by the local system. The list was stunning, the cost astronomical, thousands upon thousands upon thousands of dollars. Many of the trips, it turned out, were taken by several teachers from the same school who traveled to their destination separately and secured separate accommodations, all charged to the system.
Sorry, folks, but with amazing advances in technology, these "fact-finding" and "in-service" trips are no longer a necessity, other than to provide a taxpayer-funded vacation. If a conference is actually justified and can benefit the school system, an IT person can hook up a teleconference in a matter of minutes. Cut out the needless travel, and you can put more money where it belongs, in the classroom.
2. NO MORE FREE RIDES (for the state of Georgia): I did a story a while back about the state Regional Commission-sponsored travel program that provides transportation (yes, the little blue-and-white buses) for citizens to and from appointments. Meant for senior citizens and others who have no means of transport, the millions-of-dollars-a-year program is abused on a daily basis by the greedy segment of the population always looking for — and usually finding — a way to beat the system.
How frequently do we see these little buses tooling around the state with only one — two at the most — riders on board? And, as I learned while working on the story, if an individual has a medical appointment in, say Atlanta, he or she can secure a ride and count on doorstep-to-doorstep service. Sorry to those who don't game the system, but this money-waster should go away now.
3. WORK FOR WELFARE (for the nation): No, America should not quit taking care of its disabled or its widows and orphans. But it should stop giving money to able-bodied men and women who can't find — or refuse to look for — work. Give people a short — very short — period of grace, and then make their next check dependent on them completing 40-hour work weeks. Despite the acclaimed shortage of jobs, there are roads that need to be maintained and cleaned and projects that can utilize skilled and unskilled labor.
And, while we're here, it's time for prisons to be about more than "three hots and a cot." We need a return to the "Cool-Hand Luke" concept of road gangs sweating it out in the summer and working off the cold in the winter. (Where's Dragline when you need him?)
4. NO MORE LOOPHOLES (for the nation): Yes, in order to receive the necessary services that our various governments oversee, we should pay taxes. But should multi-billionaires — and presidential candidates — really be paying less money than their secretaries because they can afford to hire slick CPAs (an oxymoron?) to find ways around paying their fare share? I think we all can give a big "hell no" on that one.
The answer? A flat tax. Nobody escapes. Pick a rate — 15 percent, 20 percent, 25 percent — that's fair, and no one gets a penny until the tax is paid. It doesn't matter if you make $1,000 a year, $100,000 or $100,000,000, you pay your percent before the loot comes rolling in. No more government sissy-fighting over which group should pay what share. We all pay the same.
5. LEGALIZE (for the whole world): No, Sister, I don't smoke weed. But it's the world's No. 1 cash crop, and the only people making money off it are the Mexican, Afghani, Russian and Colombian cartels who would execute their mothers if they were two days late on a payoff. Let adults grow it, possess it and, yes, smoke it, but regulate the sales and manufacture just as you do booze.
Folks in Colorado and Washington can't be the only ones smart enough to see the benefits here.
You're welcome.

Pay attention, Fletcher. I referenced "contact high". You get it from second hand smoke coming from the other fifty year-old hippies you hang with at them music fests.
It's nice to know that you read my comments, tho.

- If the system can operate with you gone then why do we need to pay you. I never liked to travel because the work continued to pile up. Evidently that is not the case here. Maybe RIF is in order.
- I have seen the short buses in liquor store parking lots. Must be filling a prescription.
- Won't work, violence will result. Gimmedats think they are due that money. A Senators office finally acknowledged. You make more on welfare than the average wage earner makes per year.
- Flat tax would result in a mass of no contributing IRS workers going on welfare...it would be worth it. Nobody understands the entire tax code.
- A friend with severe khrons (sp?) couldn't eat and was sent home to die. Smoked the weed and was able to eat. Weed saved his life, it is a medicine. Good grief, I agreed with Fletch on 4 out of 5.

Can go along with most of this but have reflux on the pot. Reminds me of the moonshiners that would still be out in force if not for the price of sugar. The illegal unregulated sales will still be there and we will wind up with a larger number of pot heads blowing dope, robbing, and driving while we pay for a big regulation force, and a federal "dope czar"..
The "blue and whites" are greatly abused and are extremely costly. But this is where folks like Destiny get their money and it will never change now that the wheels are rolling. I was at Walmart at this time last year just in time to see two "big 'uns" loading gifts of EBT food and Christmas presents as the driver remarks "she can't have that many bags so we will say some of these are yours" to the bagless one. But if we cut it out, what would the poor, medically deficient, hefty folks do since we certainly can not expect them to provide anything for themselves?
While we are cutting out travel for the school systems. let's take a big whack out of crime and quit hiring so many "consultants", the Daryl Sabbs, Washingtons and the like. Some of the so-called consultants not talked about are nothing but former employees continuing on the dole.
Bah humbug, you politicans quit giving the money away as you pander for votes.

Very good, all ideas previously expoused here by many. I well remember the trips to Jeckle Island for the Vo-Tech. Don't remember anything useful being accomplished. Other than eating and surf fishing. Wasn't really that good a time to fish either. What a waste of taxpayer money. I hate to say it, I agree with you. As to the Class warfare, you do have to reduce the numbers somehow, and if they are attacking you, that is self defense. Now about the cost of the burials?

Fletch, are you turning Republican with Libertarian leanings on us or are you finally grasping the Tea Party platform?

I agree with one modification on item 4. No taxes for individuals on the first $12,000 and on families with children $20,000. No deductions, no tax shelters, capital gains inclusive. 20%.

Also, no earned income credits either. Thousands upon thousands given to no taxpayers for having more babies. And as far as medicaid, it should only cover the babies, let mama bear do without. And during labor, a mid wife is used and no epidural to kill pain or let them pay for it up front. This will curtail many babies if it hurts to get them here.

I would favor decriminalization of marijuana for medical purposes only.
Sister_Ruby 2 years, 5 months ago
But then crappy gimmedat docs will be handing out marijuana scripts like they hand out handicapped parking stickers now. Right?

Actually, if we want to inflict big damage on crime and criminal organizations, let's reword the 21st ammendment as national legislation. Tax mj and a lot of issues are addressed. The enforcement issues will be a lot less of a problem in every dimension.

If you don't pay taxes, you don't vote..that sounds about right. Will stop the pandering to the mass of hanger-ons since they can't influence election or re-election. Maybe the good of the country and not the good of the mob could become the focus again. Or we just put sand down in the civic center, make convicts into galdiators and throw bread to the crowd..we're about there anyways.

I love them all! I could think of a few more "restrictions" for welfare (I have mentioned these in the past),but overall I think these five will work for now.
To elaborate more on what Red Eric wrote, I have seen what some of these welfare queens receive in montly assistance and it is more than what a lot of people make earning wages!! THAT IS A HUGE PROBLEM!!! If I have to budget my money and sacrifice things to live within my means, THEN THEY SHOULD HAVE TO TOO!!
Chinaberry, I thought I had an genious way to solve the epidemic of generational welfare, but you gave me a new idea. PAY UP FRONT AND NO EPIDURAL! My ideas, plus this will curb system abuse, GUARANTEED!!!!
