Diarra commits to UConn
UConn secured a verbal commitment from Mamadou Diarra, a 6-foot-8 forward, on Friday morning.
Some post-game news, notes and quotes from UConn's impressive 99-78 rout of DePaul at Gampel Pavilion:
-- Let's start with sophomore forward DeAndre Daniels.
He played his best game this season, scoring a career-high 26 points. He was probably just as happy about his eight rebounds.
"Sometimes I tend not to be aggressive…," Daniels said. "But I was aggressive tonight."
Coach Kevin Ollie has been encouraging Daniels to hit the boards more. Daniels played only 17 minutes in last week's overtime loss atMarquetteand finished with one rebound.
"He did a hell of a job today," Ollie said. "I'm very proud of him."
-- UConn had its best rebounding game of the season, holding a convincing 49-29 edge. The Huskies had a 30-11 edge at halftime.
Napier and Daniels led the way with eight apiece.
The 49 rebounds represented a season-high, topping the previous best of 43 againstNew Hampshire.
"We've been concentrating on hitting first, getting rebounds," Ollie said. "And I thought we did that throughout the whole game."
It was only the third time this season UConn has out-rebounded an opponent.
Napier, a 6-foot-1 guard, maintained his team lead in rebounding, raising his average to 4.5 per game.
-- Napier is having a heck of a season. He's played his best basketball of his career in recent weeks. He had 16 points, eight rebounds, seven assists, four steals and zero turnovers in 35 minutes on Tuesday.
"Shabazz played a great floor game," Ollie said.
-- Sophomore Ryan Boatright (22 points) continues to energize his teammates and torment opponents with his speed and attack mentality. He continually beat defenders to the basket and added an impressive one-hand dunk on the breakaway.
"He gave us that jolt that we needed," Ollie said. "We fed off him."
Boatright has scored in double figures in a team-best eight straight games.
-- Maybe junior Tyler Olander can gain some confidence from scoring a season-high 10 points. He added five rebounds.
-- The Huskies, who led 54-34 at the break, improved to 9-0 when leading at intermission. They scored a season-high for points. It was their most points in a Big East game since 2006.
-- UConn has won eight in a row in the series.
-- Daniels wore ice around his right shoulder after the game. Blame Boatright.
"My shoulder is all right," Daniels said. "He dunked in practice and was swinging on the rim and kneed me right in the shoulder."
-- The Huskies received a nice contribution from their bench. Junior Enosch Wolf had eight points and seven rebounds in 17 minutes. R.J. Evans ofSalemadded four points, four assists and two rebounds in 16 minutes.
-- DePaul guard Brandon Young scored a game-high 35 points. The Blue Demons played without starters Donnavan Kirk and Charles McKinney who sat out serving suspensions for violation of team rules.
-- UConn has a tough two-game stretch ahead, visiting Notre Dame Saturday and hostingLouisvilleon Monday. Both opponents are nationally ranked.

The world of Howler's sophomore album
By Zach McCormick
What do a Brown University education, a Catskills-worked-blue sensibility, and a knack for linguistic aerobics get you these days? If you're MC Paul Barman (real name: er... Paul Barman), it gets you an unlikely career as a sort of Woody Allen/Lenny Bruce/Eminem hydra who lyrically captures pop culture icons in more compromising positions than the National Enquirer. Barman made his mark on 2000's Prince Paul-produced It's Very Stimulating EP, and while his flow proved an acquired taste (imagine Biggie's voice, then picture the exact opposite), the album won him a cult following. The formula: a combination of high- vs. lowbrow subject matter (regarding a sexual mishap: "My pissed off jimbrowski turned three colors like Krzysztof Kieslowski") and a sense of comedic angst that made Slug sound like Ludacris.
This persona is fleshed out more fully on Paulellujah!, Barman's first full-length, which features him expanding his repertoire of intelligent juvenilia to embrace sociopolitical issues. "Bleeding Brain Grow" features angry invective directed toward righties "who refuse to disarm a nuke/And keep printing 'Marmaduke.'" He also slips in what is easily the most tasteless Holocaust-related lyric since the Sex Pistols' "Belsen Was a Gas" ("Gramps made a damn nice lampshade"--gevalt!). The MF Doom-produced jazz-fusion-style "Anarchist Bookstore" mocks nouveaux-riches Web developers, claims "Barnes & Noble'll harm the global," and derides the "political correctness" straw man with a dismissive "P.C. is as meaningless as the president's apology for slavery." But the get-a-pièce de résistance is "N.O.W.," in which Paul Barman, Sex Machine, cruises for action at a pro-choice rally with gooshy results. (As he puts it, he "frenched the wet whooseywhatsits.") And on "Cock Mobster," his laundry list of famous women to bed--including Kim Gordon, Amy Tan, and Cindy Crawford--exhibits his eclectic tastes as well as his goofy bravado.
But for a white, suburban-New Jersey native, there's still the nagging "cred" issue, and on the pseudo-autobiographical "Old Paul" he looks back through octogenarian eyes to ask why he might lack it. "Is it 'cause I go for the laugh/Because I'm not from the Ave./Because I target the fans that you wish you didn't have?" he asks with a mixture of frustration and modesty that belies a man hounded by haters. While he's not easy to take seriously, that's not the point: Barman is a comedian using rap as a medium, and he excels at straddling the line between the first and latter halves of the term "smart-ass."

I own two lenses for 4x5, a 75mm wide angle, and a 150mm normal. The 75mm is used around 70% of the time.
Printable View
I own two lenses for 4x5, a 75mm wide angle, and a 150mm normal. The 75mm is used around 70% of the time.
It's very interesting. With small format, I find the normal lens to be by far my most-used lens. However, I rarely use a normal lens with large format. I either go longer or wider most of the time. With medium format, I tend to use telephotos very often.
I seem to gravitate towards normal lenses no matter the format. But on a trip to the Rocky Mtn Nat'l Park this summer I used the wide angle for about 3/4s of the shots - Fuji GSW 690 III.
Back in my early photo days I had a 35 - 70mm f2.8 zoom on my ME Super and I found myself setting it around the 50mm position for the vast majority of shots. So I stopped using the zoom and put the 50mm f1.7 back on the camera. That's when I realized that I favor normal lenses.
I tend to shoot with the longer focal lengths from 4x5 through 11x14. I have a hard time making the wide angle view work for me. It may look good on the ground glass in wide view, but when I make a print in my normal size (11x14 contact or enlarged 11x14 from 4x5) all the little details are so small in the background of the print that I always wish I had used a longer lens to capitalize on detail potential of large piece of film. If I were making very large prints often, than those details would show up with a wide view and I might have a different opinion.
Majority of work done with normal lenses. The 300mm for 8x10 is the only lens I own that has a decent shutter, so it sees a lot of use as it can be easier to use if I happen to be out in the sun. 4x5 -- 150mm, 5x7 -- 210mm, 8x10 -- 300mm. The 19" is nice on the 7x17.
Will the very wide angle of cell phone cameras change the way people expect photos to look like?
With 5"x4" 75% roughly a normal lens (135-150mm), 24.9% wide angle (90mm & occasional 65mm) and less than 0.1% longer lenses (210mm and extremely rarely 300mm).
Much the same with my 10x8, mostly my 12" Dagor, some with my 165mm Super Angulon.
never thought about it
but calculating film diagonal like you mentioned - I'm tele for ULF
Wide in MF
Normal in 35mm
Mostly within "normal", for 4x5 I use both 150mm and 210mm a lot. 300mm and 450mm sometimes. Occasionally 90mm and 75mm.
The newcomers are 65mm and 135mm which I am learning. Don't know where it ends. Perhaps 135mm will see a lot of use.
8x10, 300mm and 450.
Wide and wider if I feel a change is needed :)
Definitely lean toward wide-angle for landscape (mostly 45mm and 65mm lens' for 2x3). For people it's more evenly balanced wide/normal/tele.

Rated 2 out of 5 by ibellini disgusting not gonna dwell on it too long but charging 16 Euros (more than $20) for 24 hours use of internet is just disgusting!! That's really a shameless way to trounce the customer in any way possible. NEVER going back to this hotel and for sure will consider other chains for my next trip November 20, 2012

Rated 4 out of 5 by John Quiet and reliable This hotel is in a quiet, but convenient local, and was very good for the Bookfair. Good fitness facilities, transportation, and dining , make this hotel a very good choice. October 18, 2012
Rated 3 out of 5 by Sfosmo It could've been picture perfect...but I stayed at Sheraton Congress back in Oct. 6th for one night. I used starpoints and suite upgrade for the stay, and the room looked luxurious and spacious...but... 1. Heater didn't work. Engineer didn't know how to fix 2. Coffee maker in the room was so dirty 3. One of the faucet didn't work The frontdesk staff didn't even offer compensation like starpoints when heard. He only wanted to fix it for next guests... October 10, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Victoria3140 Excellent stay, thank you We stayed at this hotel and really enjoyed it. The location was convenient, right across the street from the tram. My rooms (we got two rooms) enjoyed a view of the beautiful forest. Staff was excellent and helpful. Thank you! October 6, 2012
Rated 3 out of 5 by travel2much27 For a Sheraton I found it lacking The staff was excellent - very cooperative and knew what they were talking about. The recreational facilities (pool, sauna, fitness room) were all very good. The location was good with transportation just outside the door. The issue I have is with the room amenities. I travel a lot and frequently stay in the Express versions of a competitive global chain. They are functional but offer few room amenities. When I spend the extra money to stay at a Sheraton I have come to expect much more. There was no in room iron & ironing board, no robe, no slippers, bathroom amenities were limited to shampoo & body lotion. I understand all of this was probably available on request but the same is true of the Express hotels. I just expected more from a pricey Sheraton. The overall experience was good because of the staff and recreational amenities but I found the room below a standard I expect of Sheeraton. October 5, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Crombie Efficient Hotel Check-in / Check was great & very efficient. Hotel was overall great. (One thing to work on: it wasn't possible to get a bathroom bulb changed within 2 days) September 24, 2012
Rated 3 out of 5 by Grate300 No club lounge / No suite upgrade (platinum) Club Lounge is not available at this facility. good luck getting upgraded If you're a platinum member. Staff said there's construction near 12 th floor, but I headed up there later that day, and apparently there were many guests on that floor. Oh well, I enjoy the stays in the states better. September 16, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by Johnny1979 Good hotel We had booked this hotel solely as a mini relaxing weekend. It definitely was relaxing. The facilities in the hotel were nice. The only two problems we had were on the website it said there were massages offered. We thought that meant onsite, when actually it was a massage company which came to your room. It just would have been nice if the website would have clarified that. And the other was that we booked the junior suite and the room was great, but the shower fixtures were not too good. Other than that, the staff were top notch. Very, very friendly. I will definitely stay here again. September 12, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by Riccardo good hotel Usually I used this hotel as I stay in Frankfurt and I found it always at high standard September 11, 2012
Rated 1 out of 5 by Rich342003 Terrible stay While staying there, terrible construction noise, ie...jackhammering all day while trying to sleep. No Air Conditioning, no Conscierge Lounge, absolutely the worst stay I have ever had with SPG. August 25, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by ratelone Great hotel I was already staying at the Le Meridien in Stuttgart and decided to venture to Frankfurt for the weekend. I reserved rooms at this hotel on a whim not sure what to expect. Upon arrival a bus was out front and the lobby was packed. I expected the worst but the staff was incredibly efficient and everyone including myself were settled in the room promptly. The rooms were great, the drinks and bartender top notch, and everyone in my party felt very welcome. I plan on staying again in the near future. Thanks for awesome service. August 23, 2012
Rated 2 out of 5 by Fritz2012 A Stingy and Cold "Business" Attitude Prevails This is a hotel with an attitude; and it is a bad attitude: parking costs ER 16.00 per night, internet 10.00. The buffet breakfast is 23.00! This is stingy. Furthermore, the staff was cold and impersonal and did not give me the feeling that I was wanted there. I travelled with family and my guess is that wealthy business travelers are perferred. I will not recommed this hotel to anyone. Besides, it is wedged between corporate headquarters and has no charm at all. August 18, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by nycgirl212 nice hotel hotel was nice and elegant. close to airport. we stayed here 1 night because we had an overnight connecting flight in frankfurt. I am gold so we were upgraded to a room on the executive floor. the room was spacious and the free internet (as a gold member) was a nice touch. would stay here again. August 18, 2012

Here, I'd like to extend a special thank you to "LEWIS" at the reception desk for his professionalism and willingness to help. Looking forward to my next stay on 7/17/2012 July 7, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by SPG1 Hotel exemplifies brand standard There is nothing to find fault with at this hotel. It exemplifies the brand standard in all aspects. Although there is no Club Lounge, platinum members are provided with additional benefits such as drink vouchers and choice of a snack. July 5, 2012
Rated 1 out of 5 by oc5691 Worst hotel I ever have seen! This hotel is the biggest waste of money. When you are thinking about staying here, then don't waste your time. Move on to something better. We called the hotel to ensure that our room would be ready when we checked in from our international flight. The lady on the telephone assured me that it would be taken care of and not to worry. We get to the airport, there was no shuttle. After the 18Euro taxi ride to the location, we then were told that the room wasn't ready. We are a gay couple and the front desk agent kept eluding to the fact that we needed two beds until it got to the point that I had to say WE ARE A COUPLE. We can sleep in the same bed. We had to accept a single room with a small bed. The air conditioning was not working in the room and it was so hot. We were not comfortable at all. Nothing in the room was set for two people. I have never felt so underwhelmed by a hotel. It is not worth the money they are charging. Since they require you own way to the hotel, then it would be better to stay somewhere with a shuttle. The fact that they have human rights sensitivity issues, is something that anyone should worry about. I would never send even my worst enemy to this hotel. SHAMEFUL! May 22, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by RTDFC Great Location I use this hotel several times a year for business and its location is ideal for the Neiderrad busness area and close to the airport. The staff (particularly the front desk) are very friendly and helpful - more so than a lot of hotels I stay at May 19, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by LongstayTraveller1 My regular stays I have stayed at this hotel a number of times over the last 3 years and have found all staff friendly and approachable. My job takes me to a number of countries entailing long stays at hotels. On this visit, I was pleased that my laundry bag and charge sheet were always replaced after being used (it may seem a trivial thing but I find it annoying that in most hotels I stay at, I have to go to reception/call housekeeping for replacements when they should be replaced as required on normal room servicing!) The location is good as it is a short ride by tram (tram stop 2 minutes from hotel) to the nearby station or into Frankfurt itself. The only downside of the area is lack of restaurants nearby May 4, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Mac81 Great Hotel/Staff The hotel staff was very friendly and immediately recognized me as a platinum member. I was upgraded to a remodeled suite that was huge. It had great furniture/decor. The gym was a little small but had nice equipment. May 4, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by Arkly Very comfortable stay Good hotel of its class; slightly further out of town, but with excellent transport commections. Smart, clean, efficiently run. Not a single hitch throughout a week's stay. Breakfasts mostly good, although hot buffet slightly dried out on quiet days. Very wide, good choice of food in all areas of buffet. Room comfortable, immaculately clean. Hot drinks much appreciated. April 13, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by AmericanDart What a wonderful staff! I had to stay in the Sheraton Congress Hotel for a month. From all my previous experiences, this one exceeded my expectations. the Human component from this hotel makes the exception.

Rated 5 out of 5 by cucu1965 LIke feeling at home For business reasons I have stayed at this hotels many many times and I have never been disappointed. Yes the rooms are somewhat basic, but the service is perfect, the staff is very friendly and always give you the impression to care about you personally. As a platinum guest, you get a lot of attention, far above the Sheraton average. Additionally the location is perfect - right in the middle of the business area of Niederrad, close to the airport.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Stunning Neti Subramanyam IBM - Stay 6/12/2011 to 9/12/2011 The Front office /Reservation desk staff very friendly and helpful., the standard room that is offered are with fruit basket ( 2 or 3 fruits) The superiod room is offered with Mini Bar included. Yet the fruit basket ( two or three small fruit souvinir) adds more delite. Hope you will do that., The rates offered are very best rates to corporate guests., Am Indeed pleased to stay with you in my next visit., Kindly add couple of indian dishes in the breakfast since you wil surely expect more guests from India for their exhibitions visitis and also business visits., May be you can start with twice a week some indian dishes during breakfast time., \ December 12, 2011
Rated 3 out of 5 by jakpot No SPG Recognition Restaurant good, breakfast is very well done and the restaurant staff are great. I stay at this hotel on a project rate every week. The hotel goes out of its way to deny any SPG PLT recognition. Over 40 stays this year, upgraded 4 times (only after complaining), I feel the front desk staff now see it as a joke, they know I should be upgraded but they never do. If you are looking for a hotel that recognizes SPG status....look elsewhere. October 26, 2011
Rated 5 out of 5 by Sandy13 Volle Punktzahl für dieses Sheraton-Hotel Ich besuche bereits seit mehreren Jahren dieses Hotel in Frankfurt Niederrad und kann mich in Sachen Kontinuität nur positiv äussern. Könnte man Servicequalität, Freundlichkeit und Dienstleistungswillen messbar machen und über einen Zeitstrahl legen, dann würde dieses Hotel eine horizontale Trendlinie im oberen Bereich des Schulnotensystem erhalten. Ich fühle mich sehr wohl und komme auch weiterhin gerne in dieses Sheraton Hotel. May 4, 2015

Rated 4 out of 5 by berliner Leistungen lassen nach Ich kam gegen 12.00 Uhr im Hotel an. Mir war klar, dass mein Zimmer eventuell noch nicht fertig sein würde. Die Dame an der Rezeption teilte mir dann aber mit, dass ich erst am späten Nachmittag in mein Zimmer könne, da der Gast SPG-Platin-Status hätte und immer erst sehr spät abreisen würde. Lt. eigenen Vorgaben ist die check in Zeit in diesem Hotel 14.00 Uhr. Ich fragte dann nach, ob nicht eine andere Suite frei wäre. Es stellte sich heraus, dass dies so ist und diese in ca. einer Stunde zur Verfügung steht. Ich verstehe es nicht, warum ich erst als Gast nachfragen muss um selbstverständliche Sachen in Gang zu setzen, zumal ich auch bei der Buchung angekündigt hatte, dass ich gegen 12.00 Uhr eintreffen würde. Insgesamt muss ich sagen, dass das Personal immer freundlich und entgegenkommend war, das hat sich nicht geändert. Geändert hat sich allerdings die Minibar. Es gibt nur noch eine Sorte Bier (im Jahr davon waren es noch zwei), Saft, Chips, Erdnüsse und Schokoriegel sucht man vergeblich, auch diese waren ein Jahr vorher noch da. Auch die Schreibmappe fiel scheinbar den Einsparungen zum Opfer. Summa summarum: Weniger Leistungen für das gleiche Geld. March 4, 2015

Great Product for a great product
The cards are beautiful. My wedding suite is Black and teaberry which is a great combo. The RSVP was switched from a black card to a teaberry card because the black is hard to see writing on for the response. I ordered everything from Magnet Street because you can customize everything. The suite I order was square Damask dream, Enclosure Card, RSVP card, the Velum and the pedal enclosure all which I am EXTREMELY happy. The envelope printing is wonderful as well.
Beyond Expectations
My finace and I chose this style for our wedding invitations and we could not be happier! The customer service is spectacular, we ordered samples (which came in such a cute little package) for free. I also emailed questions numerous times and received speedy responses. I would highly recommend Damask Dream on Fine Linen paper (which a vellum band) for wedding invites...we love them!
Perfectly Personalized
The thing I love most about Magnetstreet is the ability to take any design and personalize it for your colors and wedding style. Everything was well-priced, perfectly printed, and shipped quickly. The Damask Dream style allowed me to fit all of the text that I needed to. The colors were very rich and the shades were perfect. I couldn't be happier with my purchase of Invitations and will definitely be back to order programs and escort cards. Great company to do business with!
Elegant, lovely program
I ordered 200 of these Something Blue programs for my upcoming wedding in Charcoal Damask and Classic Blue for the stripe. I received them in pristine condition and they are printed on somewhat glossy, thicker, high quality card stock. The printing was clear and crisp, from the few I've flipped through so far. Make sure you make a note of the color of your names in the upper right-hand corner bubble; I didn't realize that was customizable, and our names came in a subtle cranberry color (which I wouldn't have chosen necessarily, but it still looks nice). Also, I had envisioned the programs would be a little larger, but they are perfect keepsake size. Even with these tiny notes, I am thrilled with them and would highly recommend.
Gorgeous design!
I chose Damask Dream wedding invitations and got them in scarlet red. I LOVE the way it turned out and I can't wait to mail them out. The website is super user-friendly and everything came on time. The invitations are gorgeous.

Technical support assistants are a part of the company's information technology (IT) team. Their primary goals are to offer support and assistance to customers related to computers, technology, desktop support, and data management. They act as a part of the company's help desk and are often the customer's first point of contact when there is a technology support request. Additionally, in some companies, the technical support assistant is also responsible for data archiving, installing software, controlling and maintaining websites and social media, and training employees on new and updated software. Since technology plays a key role in the technical support assistant's job, it is important that they have an excellent technical knowledge and are up-to-date on the latest technology. Since technology is always changing, they must be able to learn and adapt, as well as be able to teach and demonstrate how they work and are best used.Read More...
A high school diploma or equivalent is typically the minimum educational requirement for this position; however, employers may give preference to candidates with relevant postsecondary education. Technical support assistants must have excellent communication skills, be able to work with others and independently, be well organized, be customer service-minded, and have the ability to remain professional in challenging customer service situations.Technical skills are important in this line of work, and technical support assistants must have knowledge of iOS, and Windows operating systems and at least two years of data processing experience. PC repair and computer operations training are often strongly desired.
Survey results show that Technical Support Assistants use a fair number of skills. Most notably, skills in Microsoft Exchange, Microsoft Access, Network Management / Administration, and Windows NT / 2000 / XP Networking are correlated to pay that is above average, with boosts between 6 percent and 12 percent. Skills that are correlated to lower pay, on the other hand, include Customer Service, Windows Operating System General Use, and HTML. Most people skilled in Microsoft Office are similarly competent in Windows Operating System General Use and Microsoft Access.
Median of all compensation (including tips, bonus, and overtime) by years of experience.
For Technical Support Assistants, more experience in the field does not usually mean bigger paychecks. Respondents with less than five years' experience take home $34K on average. In contrast, those who have been around for five to 10 years earn a noticeably higher average of $39K. Technical Support Assistants with one to two decades of relevant experience report an average salary of approximately $42K. After two decades in the workforce, the average Technical Support Assistant generally earns more than ever; median pay for this group is estimated at $45K.

CMS 7 SP2 MR 2 Released
MR2 has been released in the SIM including Inventory, Patch Management, DS and Software Management MR2 releases. SMP 7 SP5 doesn't looked to be released fully yet. When I updated SIM it prompted to install Windows Installer 4.5 and .Net Framework 3.5 SP1. No release notes that I can find yet, though the SP5 user guide and release notes were published last week.
EDIT - As discussed below, these updates have been pulled and are no longer available. I wonder what's going on?
Comments 42 Comments • Jump to latest comment
All of the SP5 release notes were actually published ahead of time. What I can't find are the release notes for all of those MR2 upgrades.
Jesse Kozikowski
Aspirus, Inc.
Similar experience here. I installed SP2 MR2 releases and now EventReceiver and EventEngine fail to start. SIM reported 100% success with the install, but those 2 services generate a 1053 error when attempting to start and Event Console SP5 shows up in both installed solutions and available upgrades.
Found the MR2 release notes here, the updates are back in the SIM, here are the version details:
Altiris Inventory Solution SP2 MR2 (7.0.1278)
Symantec Management Agent for UNIX, Linux and Mac SP5 (7.0.8641)
Symantec Management Platform SP5 (7.0.8641)
Altiris Event Console SP5 (7.0.8641)
Altiris Pluggable Protocol Architecture SP5 (7.0.8641)
Altiris Patch Management Solution for Linux SP2 MR2 (7.0.4305)
Altiris Patch Management Solution Core Services SP2 MR2 (7.0.4310)
Altiris Deployment Solution WinPE Support MR2 (7.1.629)
Altiris Patch Management Solution for Windows SP2 MR2 (7.0.4312)
Altiris Deployment Solution Linux Support MR2 (7.1.629)
Altiris Network Discovery SP5 (7.0.8641)
Altiris Software Management Solution SP2 MR2 (7.0.1866)
Altiris Deployment Solution Core MR2 (7.1.629)
Symantec Management Platform Documentation SP5 (7.0.8641)
Altiris Deployment Solution Documentation Update MR2 (7.0.1017)
Migration 7.0 SP5 (7.0.8641)
As posted previously, here are the SMP SP5 release notes.
Installing now (on a VM)!
I must say for the moment, I never install the Dell or HP client Managers, in production servers.
What I do, I install on a LAB/VM server, exports or "reverse engeniring" the Items I would like to use, and import/recreate them into the standard "pure Altiris" in production.
It is more work to do, but a better chance to get a stable install. I do not like installing a suite, making thousand additionnal jobs/taks/error running my Altiris server, just to inventory and update Dell/HP client BIOS !!! :)
~Pascal @ Kotte.net~ Do you speak French? Et utilisez Altiris: venez nous rejoindre sur le GUASF
Really? it would seem to be fairly straightforward to uninstall. Just go into SIM, and filter by Product Type and Suite and uninstall the DMC. If necessary run repairs on the Altiris suites installed and you're done.
It's even easier if you are running the Altiris server Virtually since you can take a snapshot before doing any of this and if something goes wrong you just revert.
I'm planning on doing exactly this within the next few days as my Altiris install is having all sorts of issues that these updates are supposed to fix. I would rather do without the Dell components for awhile if I can fix some functionality (Curse you Silverlight!) and maybe gain a few features along the way.
Can you guys publish the link for known issues fixed and the substantial number of bug fixes fixed in SMP 7.0 SP5? And the same for CMS 7.0 Sp2 MR2.
Also, I am looking for a best practices document on upgrade from SMP SP4 to SP5 and from CMS SP2 to SP2 MR2 in order to plan the upgrade properly.
Thank you!
Just the SMP SP5 components. The main culprit is the [Symantec Management Platform] SP5, as it is reporting incompatibility with the Dell console components. Since all other SP5 components rely on the main SMP, they will not install either.
The Dell cuprits are:
-Dell Solutions (1.1.0)
-Dell Solutions Update (1.1.1)
-Dell Management Console (1.1.0)
I can not speak for the MR2 updates, as I was unfortunate enough to jump the gun and install the updates during the 'unofficial release'. The [MR2] installs did not seem to have issues with any Dell components. --Just everything else Altiris--
Now I am stuck until I hear from an NS engineer. 1 week so far...
Niot sure whwere I found this on Connect, but this SQL query will change the branding of the console back to Symantec:
--To change branding back to Symantec Managament Console after installation of Dell Client Manager; run this query on the Altiris 7 Database UPDATE Item SET ModifiedDate = ( select getdate() ) WHERE Guid = ( SELECT Item.Guid FROM Item Join ItemClass ON Item.Guid = ItemClass.Guid WHERE ItemClass.ClassGuid = '1f768417-511a-4c22-afbc-4a66720f793a' and Item.Name like 'Default%' )
The Dell Client Manager components uninstalled much easier. Other than a few complications, I am done. Had to set the Altiris Event Reporting Service to manual until after the install. The Altiris Monitor Solution for Servers (SP5) update was having trouble handling this service during install. It is set back to automatic and all seems well so far.
The NS does seem a little more responsive now.
Also, the 'Dell Management' Console branding is gone from the NS.
Through Symantec trailware site http://www.symantec.com/business/products/downloads/index.jsp, i am able to download only Symantec Installation Manager (SIM) version 7.0.715 . Anyone knows where i can download the sim 7.0.814 version? without that it is failing to download the installation files. Also i am unable to get this through current SIM (Snapshot attached).
I guess I will have to live with the Dell 'data class' errors as, I've been told, the only (current) fix is to reinstall the NS. Not worth it. The errors are not causing any major problems, just an annoyance.
The Event Engine portion of the SP5 update never installed correctly giving me repeated errors in the OS event logs. Worked with Symantec support to get the Event Engine update to install correctly, but now I'm stuck with new errors:

Oddly, there are no errors concerning the Event Engine within the Altiris event viewer. But that's another topic... (Check out 'Event Engine errors after SP5 upgrade' if interested)
well i have a ns 7 box that i setup as a test a while ago..
now im trying to go out and get my updates.. it tells me that sim 7.0.814 is out and when i try and download it it fails.....
the following files have failed to validate:
so it says sp5 in the link... but what is the qa?
can someone point a link to this for me?
the file does not download to the install folder..... and i cant update my 19 product updates!!!!!
Did we help you? Please Mark As Solution those posts which resolve your problem,
well our issue was we were denied access to solutionsam.com (via internal ways..) and now that is fixed.. but it is seeming im having a difficult time updating everything else.. maybe im gonna do the same.. uninstall it all... however I dont have to export anything.. we never started using it!!!!!!!!
Did we help you? Please Mark As Solution those posts which resolve your problem,
Are you, by any chance, having an issue with your [Altiris] licenses? Check the Windows certificates for Symantec/Altiris entries and see if these have entries for 'http://licensingca.altiris.com/...' which is no longer a valid CA. This has been causing my organization greef.
The Symantec/Altiris licenses are pulled in to the system as OS certificates and uses the certificate manager to validate your 'licenses'. Since there is no valid server labeled to validate against, the licenses have a tendency to appear 'invalid' or 'expired'.
I ended up having to reinstall my whole NS, it works for the most part, but I can not get or see many updates.
That is correct, this can be done with all policies, filters, jobs, etc...
I would suggest to put each in a properly named folder at export so that it will be easy to know where to reimport at the time of resetup.
The reimport will create new guids to associate the NS with these saved exports. There is no way, however to save resources. If a job is associated with a resource, the resource will have to be set up in the new install and then reassociated with the job.
ie - To setup up an imaging job that was previously in my old NS/DS, I reimported the job and all associated tasks. I then had to import the image files into the console via the Resource Import tool (located: "C:\Program Files\Altiris\Altiris Agent\Agents\Deployment\Task Handler\Tools\ResourceImportTool.exe"). Then I had to Add the OS licenses back in. After pointing the Job to these two pieces, it was back to normal.
This is because I completely deleted all Altiris related program folders after the uninstall. I also used a new database with the new install as to avoid any issues they may have lain within the old database.
Also all patch (jobs) will have to be redownloaded and reapplied to a distribution task (TEDIOUS).
My final tip is that you should use a (free) tool called 'My Uninstaller' to completely remove all portions of Altiris. You can google this. I was referred to this tool by Symantec, as no matter how hard I tried, not all portions of Altiris were removed by the SIM [OR] via 'Add/Remove Programs'
--Hope this helps, good luck--
on an uninstall or trying to install I am getting an error.. it cant upgrade SIM....
is the .814 still the version or is there a newer one?
im on the phone with altiris on hold.. 4 minutes now and havent even got my first part of call opening the case done yet!!!!!
Did we help you? Please Mark As Solution those posts which resolve your problem,

It wasn't pretty, but the Brooklyn Nets (3-2) got its second consecutive win over the Orlando Magic (2-4), Sunday afternoon at Barclays Center. Here's the analysis of the victory:
What we knew: The Nets were coming off a game where their inside presence was felt more than anything. Brook Lopez earned respect from the Magic in Brooklyn's 39-point margin on Friday night, and the Nets got offense from several other weapons. Bottom line: the Nets knew they would have the advantage in the key again today.
What we learned: The Nets, indeed, are better than the Magic, and most teams in the Eastern Conference. In a game they most likely would have lost a year or two ago, the Nets found a way to pull out the win when they were far from their best. After a good start, Brooklyn lost its offensive rhythm later in the game, but was still able to gut out the victory.
Key contributor: Kris Humphries. After Lopez and Andray Blatche put up big numbers in Friday night's win over Orlando, Humphries took control on Sunday, finishing with 14 points and 21 rebounds. Furthermore, the Nets displayed both their dominant inside game and their depth in the front court. Many people have said that the Lopez-Humphries combination wouldn't be enough on the low block for the Nets to be successful, but they have disproved that idea over the last two games. Well, at least in Orlando.
What it means: It's very early, but the win means a lot for Brooklyn. They now have their first winning streak of the season at two, and they move over .500 for the first time since the opening game of the season. The New York Knicks and Philadelphia 76ers still sit above the Nets in the Atlantic Division, but that will change several times before it even becomes relevant.
What's Next: The Nets will take on the Cleveland Cavaliers (2-4) at Barclays Center on Tuesday night. The Cavs are another team that Brooklyn should be able to beat, and will likely have the inside advantage, although they will have their hands full with Cleveland guard Kyrie Irving. Tip-off is 7:30 p.m.

This stunningly illustrated interpretation of Goldilocks and the Three Bears transports the well-loved story to the Arctic north. There, the raven-haired Inuit girl, Aloo-ki, comes upon an igloo that turns out to be the home of a polar bear family.
Jan Brett lives in a seacoast town in Massachusetts. As a child, she decided to be an illustrator and spent many hours reading and drawing. Brett says, "I remember the special quiet of rainy days, when I felt that I could enter the pages of my beautiful picture books. Now, I try to re-create that feeling of believing that the imaginary place I'm drawing really exists. The detail in my work helps to convince me, and I hope others as well, that such places might be real."

|Media seeks access to more Hernandez documents
|Written by Admin
|Friday, 19 July 2013 09:34
The organizations, including The Associated Press, filed motions Friday in district court in Massachusetts seeking access to two arrest warrants and other search warrants and materials they say remain impounded in the case. Their attorneys call the public's interest in the documents ``unmistakable and unabated.''
A judge ordered the release of documents related to the case earlier this month after media organizations sought access to them. Prosecutors and Hernandez's attorneys had opposed their release.
A hearing is scheduled for Wednesday.
Hernandez has pleaded not guilty to murder in the shooting death of Odin Lloyd. His legal team says the case against him is circumstantial.

A disease that had once been eliminated in the United States is now making a strong comeback.
This year alone there have been more than 18,000 whooping cough cases reported to the centers for disease control. According to the CDC this is the largest number of cases in the last fifty years.
Whooping cough-also known as pertussis-is a highly contagious bacterial infection of the lungs. It causes severe coughing which often makes it hard to eat, drink or breathe. Infants and young children who get it may also get pneumonia, seizures, brain damage, and even death.
"The term whooping cough sounds so innocent because you think oh it's a cold of some kind, it's not it's a horrible cough where you cough 35 times a day, you have a time when you're coughing constantly for 5-7 minutes, some people cough until they pass out," said Joan Hazard R.N., Zanesville-Muskingum Health Department.
To prevent the spread to infants the health department advises all family members and visitors receive a one-time dose of TDaP vaccine.
The infants themselves will get their shots beginning at two months and continuing every two months until they are six months old. After their fifteen months shot they will not receive another one until they are in kindergarten.
"It's a series for a reason, the first one isn't going to do it, the second one isn't going to do it. It just keeps building upon itself, and accumulating the protection so by the time they get the third shot they're only eighty percent protected from the disease," said Hazard.
If they have some protection, they're not going to get as sick as they would but they may still have a case of the disease.
