I have the Avon Imari Summer Frost Body Spray.
I get compliments everytime I wear this.
For a body spray in a can it is very long lasting
The fragrance is quite strong and is definately not your typical candy sweet spray scent.

This is a clean floral/oriental. It's a warm blend of spices and woods and has a soapy-smelling quality. I love it. I think if it was made by an upscale brand it would be much more popular. It is a bit strong, but mellows out beautifully. I love it.

It's a nice scented backup lotion I like to keep on hand. Avon really has some of the best fragrances, always qualified. And I hold everything up to a high standard.

I'm sorry, but I don't like this one. All I could smell on my wrist was plain floral-scented soap, maybe mixed with a bit of talcum powder. I really don't understand why this perfume is still around when the company's other classics from the same era & before that have long been discontinued. Unfortunately, I've never had the chance to try those other classics (& probably never will), but judging from the many glowing, nostalgic reviews of them, all I can say is it's absolutely mind-boggling why Avon would cease production of those wonderful scents forever but still retain the unremarkable Imari to this day. Looking at the company's current crop of generic, mediocre wishy-washy perfumes that are being churned out by the dozen each year, they desperately need to bring back some of their popular classics to help resuscitate the ailing image of their fragrances which, beginning of the 21st century, has seriously gone down the toilet... It's so sad to think that for a company that has been around since 1886, at one time, their perfumes were well-respected & legends in their own right, but are now commonly viewed as 'cheap & tacky' & have become the butt of jokes everywhere (the same fate which has befallen Coty & Dana).
Back to the review, if you still want the Imari name, I suggest buying Imari Velvet, which is a fruity-floral-oriental (I don't know if it's still available elsewhere in the world, but the Avon in my country still carries it). If you're not able to get hold of it anywhere, then another alternative is the company's Vanilla Soft Musk (it has the same raspberry/caramel undertones, in fact, the two are almost identical). I don't recommend Imari Seduction though, as it has a somewhat annoying powdery/medicinal edge (to my nose). Sadly, on me, the purple orchid note completely overwhelms the plum note, so I don't get the same smooth, delicious scent that many others seem to experience on themselves. If you have the same perfume tastes or body chemistry as I do, don't bother with this one.

On me this is a warm, powdery musk. It smells
kind of like tobacco. It is not flowery, or
sweet, just clean, warm, dark, and rather comforting.

I've tried to like this fragrance on multiple occasions and it just never works with my chemistry. It always smells like the perfume has "turned" or gone bad from age even though the bottles are new. It smells like stale, old body powder. Or powdery bandaids. It's an interesting olfactory experience but not a pleasant one.

I like Avon's Imari fragrance. But not because I am an "old lady". You have to understand something about my scent selection philosophy. I select fragrances by seasons, mood or even the weather! Imari and the newer "Imari Seduction", which is my current favorite, are great scents for Fall and Winter. They evoke an intimate fireside in a log cabin, a profusion of fall leaves in the woods, a warm, spiced powder-musk scent that suits a specific mood and the season, in general. Around Christmastime or whenever I'm in a domestic sort of mood, I enjoy the sweet smell of baking scents, such as cinnamon and "Warm Vanilla Sugar" by Bath & Body Works. In the Spring, light florals such as lavender body powder from Yardley of London and fresh ozone "after-the-rain" scents, such as Avon's Haiku and a touch of Avon's discontinued "Spring Showers", are ideal. Sadly, I have to avoid many of the overt floral scents — particularly anything that smells of roses, which basically describes my sister's entire house thanks to her Yankee candle collection — because they aggravate my chronic asthma. There are a few scents I can get away with in reasonable quantities and Imari, which has been a top-selling fragrance for Avon for years, is among them. I would put Imari, in fact, in my top five all-time favorites. In fact, I own Avon's Imari body powder, hand cream and deodorants too. (As a rule, I never recommend applying one than more perfumed product at once, though.) On warmer days, by contrast, I prefer fruity and tropical/beach fragrances. A little coco butter lotion, light citrus scents or one of my favorites, Avon Naturals "Peach" body spray, are fabulous fragrances in the summertime.
Choosing a fragrance is about three things: Application (too much of anything is obnoxious); chemistry (how it reacts to your body); and perspective (context). There is a scent for every mood, occasion or season. Age has less to do with the selection of a perfume than any other factor, IMHO. Ironically, of all the department store brands I've bought, the high-end fragrances seem most inclined to overpower with a chemical perfume scent and yet at the same time a pungent, nose-stinging alcohol base. After many years, my Avon fragrances — one of them approaching 30 years old, which I keep because it was the first perfume I was given as a child — smell EXACTLY the same. I cannot say the same for my costlier department store brands. None of my department store perfumes have held true over the years and I no longer buy any of them as a result. (I feel a lot of the markup on department store colognes and such involves the brand name, advertising campaign and the top-tier packaging as much if not more than anything actually in the bottle.) I stick, instead, to what works for me: Pure oil essences, scented lotions from Bath & Body works, Yardley of London and Avon fragrances. I urge anyone who has an adventurous streak to try this approach. You don't have to wear the same scent the rest of your life — it will probably be discontinued sooner or later anyhow — and the added benefit to this technique is that if any one of them is offensive to someone you know, before long you'll rotate it out for something else!
Imari is about as nuanced and sophisticated as a non-department store brand gets. And while my current favorite is the revised Imari Seduction, which is more powdery than musky, I will most definitely buy this product again. The only products in the Imari series that I will not be repurchasing is the hand cream and the deodorant because those are a bit more harsh (the body powder is fine, though). Imari fragrance, in conclusion, goes on nicely and has a subdued finish to it. It is not at all like those department store brands that reek for hours on end. Imari does, in fact, have staying power, but only those you are intimate with or hug are likely to notice once the fragrance has "set". In short, don't be put off by the negative reviews. Everyone is entitled to a personal opinion, but don't let anyone make up your mind for you. Fragrances are one of those things where you really have to try the product for yourself to appreciate it (or not). Good luck!

I agree with the reviewer under me. I get tired of people calling sophisticated scents "old ladyish". I'm young, 25 years old and I love this oriental scent. But I also love other scents like pink sugar, coco mademoiselle, etc. And I believe if this scent was made under Chanel, people wouldn't be bashing it. I disagree with the perfume being called 'harsh', it's pretty womanly and soft----one to three light sprays is all it takes. I don't know how much some people are spraying, but it's all about chemistry

I find that women will compliment other ladies on fruity and floral scents, while men tend to compliment on strong musk and oriental perfumes. Imari is definitely a fragrance made to entice men (and subequently get you dirty looks from girls)! I think that the girls who come on here and call anything that's not Pink Sugar an ''old lady'' scent are not very confident. Ladies who wear scents like Imari, Opium, Tabu, and others tend to be more secure with themselves and do not feel the need to fit in with the pack in every aspect of their lives, or in this case, smell like the pack. Don't get me wrong, go ahead and wear your Pink Sugar and Light Blue. But I, being age 20, am NOT an old lady and I wear spicy oriental scents. Be happy - more Pink Sugar out there for you, and more Imari for me.
Okay, back to the Imari description! It has notes of incense, spice, and a musk base. Men seem to like this - I NEVER get complimented on fruity florals, but Imari draws compliments from co-workers, friends, and complete strangers on me. Spray it LIGHTLY, one or two sprays. Let your body heat and natural scent do all of the work. As far as the price of this... it's so dirt cheap! If they threw this into a bottle labeled ''Serge Lutens Nuit de Incencee'', it would sell for hundreds. But of course, since it is cheap and sold by Avon, too many preconceived notions surround it for it to get a fair chance.

Ah Imari.
When I ordered a batch of several purse sized perfumes, this was included in it.
Now mind you I am fairly neutral on this product.
Firstly, it is a VERY strong musk. By musk I mean just that, a woody, deep, mature scent. On my body, it smells hideous, I litterally sprayed it on my wrists, and then spent several minutes scrubbing it off and layering sweeter scents over it to try and neutralize it.
However thinking of my mom, who wears things like patchouli oil and sandlewood, I offered it to her and she loves it..
And honestly when she walks into a room and she's wearing it I often comment without realizing "hey you smell nice mom" and she says "oh its that perfume you gave me" and I am like "wow, it smells good on you.."
So in that I think that if you are a more, natural, woodsy, hippy-ish, mature woman, this would probably be an ok scent for you..
but if you like floral, fresh, or well pretty much any scent that isn't deep, woodsy and highly musky, then this is not for you!

Uncle's ashes among burglarized items
A Florida woman said items taken from her home during a recent burglary include her Nintendo Wii console, a pair of handguns and her uncle's ashes.
Denise Littler of Bradenton said the wooden box that held the ashes of her uncle, David Littler, who died at age 83 four years ago, was left in its place along with her relative's military medals and dog tags during Friday's burglary, but a plastic bag containing the ashes was taken, the Tampa Tribune reported Wednesday.
It's, like, 'Hello,' she said.
That is of no value to anybody other than me. What are you going to do with a bag of somebody's ashes?
Manatee County sheriff's spokesman Dave Bristow said Littler's front door had been pried open. Other items taken included an underwater camera, a flute, a music stand and some collectible model cars.
It's a typical burglary with the typical things stolen, Bristow said.
Well, except for the ashes.
Littler said her father's ashes, which were stored near her uncle's in her home, were untouched by the burglar or burglars.

Publisher: Hatje Cantz Verlag GmbH & Co KGBinding: HardcoverPages: 344Size: 10.00" wide x 11.50" long x 1.50" tall Weight: 2.310Language: English
The many books on Paul Klee (1879 1940) published over the years should not obscure the fact that there has been no new, comprehensive Klee overview since Will Grohmann s much reprinted 1954 monograph. With Paul Klee: Life and Work, the Zentrum Paul Klee has set out to fill this gap, drawing on a wealth of new resources including the Klee family s archives, much of which is published here for the first time. Life and work are truly integrated in this massive, 344-page volume: Klee s vast body of work is surveyed chronologically, as the book narrates his life alongside the abundant reproductions of drawings, paintings, watercolors, sculptures, puppets and numerous archival documents and photographs (500 reproductions in total, half of which are color). The book divides Klee s career into eight periods: Childhood and Youth ; Munich and the Encounter with the Avant Garde ; World War I and the Breakthrough to Success ; At the Bauhaus in Weimar ; Master of Modern Art ; The Move to Dusseldorf and the Nazi Rise to Power ; First Years of Emigration in Bern ; and Final Years. The result of many years of research and labor, this magisterial publication demonstrates conclusively why Klee numbers among the most influential and best loved artists of the past 100 years.

My PI - Anyone Remember this Long Island Pizza Restaurant?
- r
- Ric Zoon
Hey there-
I seem to remember a Long Island deep dish pizza restaurant called "My PI" (but spelled with the greek symbol for 3.14) There was one by the Sunrise Mall and one in Hicksville. Does anyone remember this chain? Do they still exist?
re: Tony Bad
There was one in Tulsa Ok back in the mid 70's. Have been looking for one recently but have had no luck. Best pizza I ever had. Hope to find one if they are still around.
re: Steve Triplet
That's so funny, my husband and I were talking about the one on Sunny Isles Blvd right before Collins ave in North Miami Beach, Fl, the other day...when we first started dating in 1979, he used to take me there all the time--the BEST pizza..couldn't figure out why they closed....
I remember the one in Hicksville quite fondly. Used to frequent with my friends during high school (yikes! that was a long time ago!)
Haven't seen one since that folded.
Yes. I know there is one in Chicago at Clark and Fullerton. It is still the best pizza. Yum! They even still have the silly game placemats.
- The original comment has been removed
Definitely my best Pizza memories. I used to go very often to the one on South US1, near Dadeland Mall, but also went a few times to the one in North Miami Beach. I've been looking for them for years, but didn't check the net about it until today. Please let me know if they are somewhere else. I'd surely go back there. M.

Rondo's new challenge
|06.03.10 at 8:34 pm ET
LOS ANGELES – Derek Fisher has been in the NBA for 14 years, but he still poses new challenges for Rajon Rondo.
In the previous two rounds of the playoffs, Rondo has been matched up with younger point guards in Jameer Nelson and Mo Williams. Even though 35-year-old Fisher may not be as quick, he can create problems for Rondo that he has yet to encounter this postseason.
'He's smarter,' Rondo said prior to Game 1. 'I think he's been to seven finals so this is probably the same old story for him. He's probably going to play like this is his last, but Derek's a veteran. Like I said, he's very smart and he's a unique player, so I have to be aware of his tricks he may try to throw at me, some of his veteran moves he may have to draw fouls against me or whatever it may be.'
Fisher's basketball IQ will keep Rondo on his toes throughout the series. The combination of his skill and intelligence has Rondo on the alert.
'You can't underestimate Derek," he said. "He definitely can shoot the 3, you can't lose sight of Derek, and he draws fouls. He shoots 99 percent from the line so he's not an easy match up. He's a tough match up."

LISLE, Ill. (March 10, 2014) – From talked-about pests like the emerald ash borer and Asian carp to lesser-known invasive plants like the Callery pear, Illinois' invasive species come in many forms – all serious threats to the state's economy and ecology. This May, in recognition of Invasive Species Awareness Month in Illinois, The Morton Arboretum will host the third annual Invasive Species Awareness Month (ISAM) Workshop, "Invasive Issues in Trees." The workshop is designed to help professionals responsible for tree care and management better understand and manage invasive species in their communities.
On May 15 from 8:30 a.m. – 3:00 p.m., invasive species experts from top universities, the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) and The Morton Arboretum will gather to discuss how invasive species affect everyone, including conversations about the invasive plant Callery pear, and pests and pathogens specific to conifer (evergreen) trees.
As a popular ornamental tree, Callery or its cultivars like Bradford pear continue to be heavily planted in urban areas. Yet, natural resource managers are noticing pear seedlings from these trees popping up in open areas, displacing native plants. In addition to the growing interest in this potentially invasive tree, there has been an increased interest in conifer pests and diseases due to environmental conditions and recent drought.
"Most people are familiar with the damage done by the emerald ash borer and Asian carp, but we're seeing more and more issues with conifers due to the wet springs and dry, hot summers," said Andrea Dierich, Forest Pest Outreach Coordinator at The Morton Arboretum and event organizer.
Workshop speakers include:
· Joseph Rothleutner, M.S., Tree Improvement Specialist, The Morton Arboretum
· Theresa Culley, Ph.D., Associate Professor, Department of Biological Sciences, University of Cincinnati
· Dennis Fulbright, Ph.D., Professor, Department of Plant, Soil and Microbial Sciences, Michigan State University
· Scott Blackwood, M.S., Pest Survey Specialist, USDA-APHIS
To offer industry professionals an up-close look at the threats targeting conifers, The Morton Arboretum is introducing an ISAM Field Tour through its conifer collection on May 16, from 8:00 a.m.-11:30 a.m. Led by Dr. Dennis Fulbright, the tour will offer field identification of conifer pests and pathogens. Attendees are asked to bring a hand lens and dress for the weather.
The 3rd Annual ISAM Workshop takes place on Thursday, May 15 from 8:30 a.m.-3 p.m. The cost is $15 and lunch and snacks will be provided, but participants are asked to please bring your own coffee cup. The ISAM Field Tour will be on Friday, May 16 from 8-11:30 a.m. The cost is $20. No food or drink will be provided for this field tour but registrants are welcome to grab a bit to eat at the Ginkgo Café. To register or for more information, visit http://www.mortonarb.org/courses/2014-morton-arboretum-invasive-species-workshop.
About ISAM
Illinois Invasive Species Awareness Month (ISAM) is a statewide initiative held each May to educate and inform citizens of Illinois about the threat of invasive species. 2014's theme is "Invasive Species Affect Everyone." If you live in Illinois, work in Illinois, recreate in Illinois, or just simply breathe in Illinois, invasive species affect you. The Morton Arboretum is one of the more than sixty invasive species cooperators within the state of Illinois.

AC Milan midfielder Kevin-Prince Boateng is disappointed with the jeering from his own fans this season.
Boateng has by his own admission not had a great campaign.
"The fans applauded me against Barcelona, now they are jeering. I do understand them, as they see a player with the Number 10 jersey at Milan who only scored three goals. It has been a difficult season for me.
"There is also criticism of Stephan El Shaarawy, but that's just crazy. He scored so many goals and really helps the team. In football you must look beyond goals and assists, as Stephan gives a big helping hand in defence. In my view, he is Milan's player of the season.
"Many told me Mario Balotelli was mad, but instead he's a great professional as well as a great player."

The expectation of the Union Budget makes one feel like guessing the question of a forthcoming exam. The reality is that we are seeking the answers from the government in the form of pragmatic policies and schemes that can rejuvenate the economy.
The Finance Minister would obviously look at: Need for fiscal consolidation; importance of foreign investments for financing; creating a balance between price stability and growth; improving the financial sector reforms; Infrastructure development; boosting manufacturing growth; encourage domestic value addition; having planned urbanization, and boosting skill development.
That's like stating the syllabus, so now you can judge as to how much percent of my expectations will perhaps match with the Union Budget that will finally be presented.
On controling Inflation and cutting Down Fiscal deficit:
Policies of the new government should aim towards catalyzing the reform process to put the economy on a sustainable and balanced high-growth path to win investor confidence in the domestic as well as global sector. There has to be a robust fiscal policy to support growth and monetary policy. The budget should stress on initiating measures to control price rises, cut down fiscal deficit and control inflation.
Encourage people to spend more, spur savings and home buying
From a common man perspective, one tend to look at just the taxable amount that the government announces and make a judgement on the budget. Raising the tax exemption limits along with government deductions levels for investment schemes will encourage people to spend more, spur savings and home buying – increase the current limits of deduction on the home loan amount. These can naturally boost growth.
On boosting MSME sector:
MSME sector is the backbone of the Indian economy, over the years with escalating costs of raw material and high interest rates most businesses have found it challenging to sustain, as their profitability margins got affected and would be looking for some form of support from the government to revive the sector.
With the probability of a revival in the global economy, MSMEs should be in a position to tap the export opportunities and tap the potential overseas customers. The leverage can be achieved with greater support from the Government in boosting exports, in the form of a marketing platform to identify potential buyers.
Reforms in the Labour act, free flow of goods, and concession on excise duty
Policy towards Managing Cost and boosting access to bank credit and markets, besides red-tape, labour and taxation remain the main challenges faced by the MSMEs in the country. The large scale sector industries get all the resources of finance from aboard at a very cheap cost, as they are known. Reforms in the Labour act, with policy that facilitates free flow of goods, and concession on excise duty would go a long way in boosting the sector.
Expecting people's pragmatic approach:
Interestingly the recent hike in prices of railway tickets while attracting some reactions, also showed the pragmatism of the public at large who were quite emoted with the measures taken by the government, so would it be with the budget. The people of this country want to see India truly shining. Patience is a given – Performance is the need of the hour, so effective Implementation to the roads of economic progress holds the key to success.

A Podcaster Extraordinaire
Congratulating the ASME winner
While it was an honor for Vox Tablet to be nominated for the National Magazine Award for Podcasting one year after winning, we did not repeat. The good news is, the honor went to Poetry, and, by extension, to Curtis Fox, podcast producer extraordinaire. Trained in public radio, Fox was an early adapter to the whole podcast phenomenon. In fact, it was he whom Tablet Magazine's predecessor, Nextbook.org, brought on back in 2005 to create the podcast now known as Vox Tablet. And the shout-outs don't stop there: The person who hired Fox, Nextbook.org's then editor-in-chief, Blake Eskin, is now Web editor for The New Yorker—another one of this year's excellent nominees for Podcasting.
In the manner of Margo True and Joe Posnanski, two bloggers who were up for the Blogging award and graciously congratulated The Scroll on its win, here are links to some of Fox's winning podcasts and some of Eskin's runner-up entries. While they are quite different in subject matter, they have in common excellence in production values, and a delightful, playful intelligence on the part of the hosts. Enjoy! I did.

I recently found a bow grip of defense with +4 armor and a bow grip of fortitude with +23 health. Which should I use? I'm strictly PvE. Thanks for your opinions, folks!
I recently found a bow grip of defense with +4 armor and a bow grip of fortitude with +23 health. Which should I use? I'm strictly PvE. Thanks for your opinions, folks!
An extra 40 armor reduces an attack by half, or so I've heard. So it's basically reducing damage by a tenth, or an extra 23 health. Too lazy to do the math, sorry :pOriginally Posted by wondersmith
It's far more complicated than that, or I wouldn't have asked. :) The actual reduction in damage from +4 armor is about 6.7%. According to Charles Ensign's excellent article "A Treatise on Combat Mathematics", the factor by which your Armor Level (AL) modifies incoming damage relative to "normal" AL 60 armor is 2^((60-AL) / 40). Of course the simplest case of this occurs at AL 60, where you take 100% of the AL 60 damage. At AL 64, the damage modifier is 93.3%. Try out some other numbers yourself and you'll see the formula is always consistent with +40 armor reducing damage by half, as we know, and also always yields a 6.7% reduction for +4 armor.Originally Posted by drunkenclamm
Now assuming we're concerned with the issue of surviving damage that brings us to the brink of death, it makes sense to see how the +23 extra health from the bow grip of fortitude compares to the amount of damage spared by the extra +4 armor from the bow grip of defense as we lose all our health. Let's say our character starts with 500 health. 500 health x 6.7% = 33.5 health. So at first glance the bow grip of defense seems better because it prevents us taking more health damage than the bow grip of fortitude gives us. In addition, the damage saved doesn't need to be healed back. If only it were that simple!
The problem is that there are many forms of damage that completely bypass armor: Chaos, Shadow, and Holy damge inflicted by by spells ignores armor. So does damage caused by life stealing and damage-over-time effects like poison, bleeding, and burning (both when caused by spells or by environmental effects). +4 armor is totally useless against all this; only additional health will help.
So...with all this in mind, which is better overall, throughout the entire PvE experience? That's what I'm really asking. Alas, I suspect that no one knows the answer, not even at ArenaNet. :)
You are correct in this.
However, 23 health is so little, it wont really make a difference, if you are hit by Chain Lightning or Spectral Agony. So it all comes down to you play style.
If you are using more than one major rune or a Sup/Major rune then I would go for the extra health to try and make some of it up.

congratulations. you have gained a diploma in combat level mathematics. :winner: Next time when a vengeful ataxe :surprise: is running after you, try to calculate this and you would certainly appreciate the results... :boxer::lol:
I'd say it all depends on your playing style and the build you're using. To give a crude example: if you use health buffs then an extra 23 won't make a big difference, if you use armor buffs the +4 armor might not make a big difference... My personal opinion is to go all out on one, either stack up the armor or stack up your health and adapt your build to that situation. For example when you chose for the armor you know that your weak point will be hexes and damage over time, well that is a fact you can use when making up your build. To put it simplistically bring some hex removal spells and you're set.
It just all comes down to playing style: if you're a necro using a lot of sacrifice spells the extra health will be less valuable then the extra armor, if you're a warrior using protection some extra health to counter hexes might be nice...

To 4.5 Guys: "Get Out And Stay Out!!"

IDK to be honest I dont really think it matters much if the guy is a 4.0 or a 4.5.
I have been playing in a mixed doubles league for several years now and from my experience the matches are almost always decided by which male can break down/exploit the other teams female the most often.
I am a 4.0 and so is my partner but we have played against every variation of the 3.5-4.5 pairings.
It boils down to every male either overpowering, spinning, or exploiting the opposing teams female player.
I rarely (if ever) see a 4.0 male that cannot easily handle a 4.0 woman and most of the time even the 3.5 men can handle 4.0 women because even if the woman has good strokes her movement is always the deal breaker. Women react slower and are less explosive in their movement so its all too easy to get them deep then hit it short and win the point.
Whether the guy is 4.5 or not really isnt a huge difference unless when his female partner is serving your teams return game isnt good enough to get past him. Usually a 3.5 females serve is "tee time" for the other team and its easy to break her.

At a relatively sprightly 40, Jim Whitehurst joined Red Hat from US company Delta Airlines, officially taking the reins on 1 January of this year.
The Red Hat chief executive has previously named cloud computing as his number-one priority. When ZDNet.com.au caught up with him recently, he added virtualisation to the top of that list.
Q: When you were last interviewed by CNET News.com [ZDNet.co.uk's sister site], you said your central priority was cloud computing. Why do you see this as important?
A: I do believe we are at an inflection point in the IT architecture. I am not sure it is quite as big as going from mainframe and terminal to client/server, but it's certainly a significant change in architecture.
Basically, if you look at the economics, there is no question that it is cheaper to generate a computing cycle in a centralised farm of commodity server hardware than it is in the current client server environment. That includes utilisation, the cost of hardware, the maintenance and support, and so on. I'm a big believer that economics will win in the long run, as we see more and more functionality move to large server farms that are centrally managed.
I guess whether they are internal private grids or clouds, or whether those are public, or semi-private, that's still to be determined, because that's a lot around specific business models. However, there is no question that functionality will drive a move to more cloud-type environments. I think building a new architectural cloud around propriety software is inadvisable at this point in time. If you're building a new architectural paradigm, why would you do it on propriety hardware and risk lock-in?
You offered virtualisation in RHEL [Red Hat Enterprise Linux] 5, but you aren't known for it. How do you plan to compete with VMware, Citrix and now Microsoft in this space?
VMware, no question, was first to the market. I frankly have run into no customer yet who is running XenSource.
We actually have a lot of traction. We are gaining quite a bit of momentum with our virtualisation. This is one place where Microsoft and Red Hat agree. Virtualisation should be part of the operating system, not a separate layer. I say that for several reasons.
First off, a big, big chunk of virtualisation is hardware enablement, and hardware enablement is something already being done by us — and the Linux community. The Linux community spends a lot of time — and hardware manufacturers and chip OEM manufacturers spend a lot of time — writing drivers and enabling hardware already in Linux and in Windows.
So adding a whole [additional] layer? To enable hardware and be involved in those technology roadmaps just doesn't make a whole lot of sense.
Secondly, a lot of long, hard work has gone into a whole bunch of areas within the operating system that are inherited by virtual guests. Let me take a simple example, security. The security regiment that is in [Security Enhanced] Linux was originally heavily contributed by the NSA. It is certainly considered the most secure operating system. The Russian military has RHEL certified as the most secure operating system available, period.
A virtual guest coming out of an RHEL [instance] inherits those [security] characteristics. The idea of trying to go back and completely rewrite a security paradigm to work with a hypervisor — I guess that's possible, but it'll take five or 10 years and thousands, or tens of thousands, of man hours. […] The Linux kernel is 9,000,000 lines of code. The average hypervisor is 35,000 lines. Our belief, and I think Microsoft agrees, is that you have all the work and engineering that has taken over a decade or more to put into the operating system. To now decompose it all, throw away the operating system and recreate those in all kinds of layers, is crazy.
It's a bit like, 10 or 15 years ago, people used to buy a separate TCP/IP stack, but these days you don't buy that, you expect that to be in the operating system.
I think in the next two or three years you will hear people stop talking about hypervisors, because they will just be ubiquitous in operating systems. I think Microsoft and us are really…

FERRISBURGH — About six years after the developers of the Pierce Woods received Ferrisburgh and state permits for their 21-lot planned residential development (PRD) off Stage Road, the lots have yet to be formally marketed.
But that status for what is the second-largest housing subdivision ever approved in Ferrisburgh could change in the coming months, according to town resident David Shlansky, one of the principals in the company that owns the land and is developing it.

FERRISBURGH — Vermont's political landscape has changed quite a bit since Ferrisburgh Democrat Arabella Holzapfel ran for the Vermont House back in 2000.
That was a year during which the GOP claimed a decisive majority in the House following a session that saw passage of the nation's first civil union law.
FERRISBURGH — After 11 months, the full-price buyer for a 34.9-acre parcel at the junction of Routes 7 and 22A owned by the town of Ferrisburgh has walked away from the deal.
Selectboard chairwoman Loretta Lawrence said on July 3 that Montpelier's Eastern Development Corp. informed the town in writing before a June 30 deadline that it wished to terminate the $375,000 deal it first signed with Ferrisburgh on Aug. 1, 2011.
FERRISBURGH — On Father's Day, a nine-months pregnant Heather Ayer realized the time had come.
She, her boyfriend, Anthony Denning, and his mother, Lisa Denning, headed from her Benson home toward Fletcher Allen Healthcare in Burlington, with Lisa Denning behind the wheel.
The car did not make it in time.
Instead, late on June 17 Ayer's daughter, Kaimara, was born on the side of Route 7 at 6 pounds, 3 ounces and perfectly healthy, according to Vergennes Area Rescue Squad volunteers.
FERRISBURGH — Recommendations for improvements intended to make it safer for children near Ferrisburgh Central School to walk to school earned mixed reviews from the Ferrisburgh selectboard on Tuesday.
Most selectboard members said they liked at least some of the proposals in a report developed by a town Safe Route to Schools (SRTS) committee with help from the Vermont Agency of Transportation's SRTS Resource Center.
FERRISBURGH — Ferrisburgh selectmen on Tuesday agreed to let supervised Ferrisburgh Central School students tap maple trees on the town-owned Union Meeting Hall property on Route 7 — with one provision.
The proposal came from FCS parent Nick Patch, who has a portable maple sugar house. Patch sought the board's permission to tap the maples, which are about 400 yards from the school across the state highway.
FERRISBURGH — While the Ferrisburgh selectboard on June 5 considered how to put in place a complex residential energy-efficiency program narrowly backed in March by town residents, the town's energy committee chairman said a few homeowners are already interested in signing on.
At town meeting, residents voted, 50-49, that Ferrisburgh should become a Property-Assessed Clean Energy (PACE) district.
FERRISBURGH — The Ferrisburgh selectboard at its Tuesday meeting agreed to use equipment borrowed from Shelburne to measure the speed and amount of traffic coming through the North Ferrisburgh village along Old Hollow Road.
The board took that action in response to a petition filed by Old Hollow Road resident Nick Patch and signed by about 90 residents of the area; he said "the vast majority" of the village population wanted something done.
FERRISBURGH — In each of the past two years, the town of Ferrisburgh has set aside a day each summer to gather and celebrate as a community, calling the event Ferrisburgh Day.
This year presents Ferrisburgh and its residents with an extra reason to gather, the 250th anniversary of the town charter. Officials essentially decided to combine Ferrisburgh Day with a birthday celebration on Saturday, June 23.
HINESBURG/FERRISBURGH — There's a new brand of organic milk hitting the shelves in stores around Vermont from a Ferrisburgh farm that after years producing high-quality milk is now also bottling it and sending it to retailers.
Kimball Brook Farm has been milking 200 Jersey and Holstein cows and selling to the national market for 15 years. But when Cheryl and J.D. DeVos flipped the switch at their small Hinesburg bottling plant on May 17, they were marking a major transition to processor and distributor of their own milk.

In the 1890s, the Red Salmon Company developed a cannery, and Ugashik became one of the largest villages in the region. The 1919 flu epidemic decimated the population. The cannery has continued to operate under various owners. The Briggs Way Cannery opened in 1963. The village has a small year-round population.

The real shocker is the credibility holes bigger than the ones air-conditioning this bird. [30 Sep 2005, p.89]
The visual effects from coordinator Laird McMurray and his team in the wake of the missile strike are solid enough, though it's never explained why some people get sucked out of the hole and others don't and why, after the plane levels off, the sucking pretty much stops even as the movie itself continues to suck.

Gear Review
watch the zipper
I am SO disappointed in these shorts - yes, they fit great (the sizing is large, get the next size down) & they ride well. But I've just put them on for their 2nd wearing & the zipper is out. These shorts are so well made, but the zipper is one of those cheap plastic ones. When I sat down, it broke open in the middle. So I pulled it down & carrrrrefully pulled the zipper shut again. Sat down, whap, open it came. So then I took the shorts off & once again carefully pulled the zipper pull to try to get the teeth to realign. This time, the pull broke off the zipper pull! So I got out some pliers & used them to pull the zip-pull down & back up. No joy. I'm sure Backcountry will take these as a return, but that doesn't make up for not getting to ride today! I'm never buying Oakley with a zipper (I have some just pull-up kind & they rock) EVER again.

Snikt And Smash: Marvel Heroes
When X-Men: The Last Stand crammed in all the mutants it made for a crowded frame and some of Marvel's most uncanny were rendered as little more than computer-generated blobs of colour. Free-to-play multiplayer online ARPG Marvel Heroes also appears to subscribe to the 'more actually can be more' philosophy, but hopefully to greater effect. The huge selection of characters could work in its favour, because rather than being forced to share the screen together, more heroes means more choice. Closed beta signups continue. Another trailer below, more convincing than the last. Have you spied your favourite hero yet?

If you want to use a slow cooker...
If you want to make the vegetarian version of this curry in a slow cooker, firstly cook off the onions with the dry spices in a frying pan for 5-6 mins. Add the chilli, garlic and ginger and cook for 1 minute, then tip into your slow cooker. Throw in the vegetables and 400ml stock, cover and cook on Low for 4 hours until the potatoes are tender. Stir in the peas, yogurt and ground almonds with seasoning, stand for 5 minutes then serve as above.
- Heat the oil in a large pan. Cook onion with the dry spices over a low heat for 5-6 mins until the onion is light golden. Add the chilli, garlic and ginger and cook for 1 min, then throw in the mixed vegetables and cook for a further 5 mins.
- Divide the mixture appropriately between two pans if serving vegetarians and meat eaters. Chop the chicken into small chunks and stir into one pan. Add the stock, dividing between the pans appropriately, and simmer for 10 mins (if only cooking the veggie version in one pan, use 300ml stock; if dividing between two pans, add 250ml to each). Divide the peas, if necessary, and add, cooking for 3 mins more until the veg are tender and the chicken is cooked through.
- Remove from the heat and stir through the yogurt and ground almonds, if using. Serve sprinkled with the toasted almonds and coriander, with basmati rice or naan bread on the side.

Comments, questions and tips
Hi Saturdayedition, I'm sorry it came out watery. We have amended the recipe because if you're just cooking the veggie version in one pan you can use a bit less stock. To get the creamiest texture try using Greek yogurt (or even a coconut flavoured Greek yogurt). Low-fat yogurt will of course be healthier but can make it watery. Hope this helps, Emily

The swaying deck shifted beneath her feet, and Lieutenant Meliden Bowen knew that if it were not for Lieutenant S'rR's Kane's arm round her, she would have fallen. She tried to take another step, but something snagged her foot.
"Wait! Wait! Something's got me!" she howled, trying to maintain her balance.
S'rR's looked back,
"You've got your heel caught in your dress again," she sighed, balancing her intoxicated friend against the bulkhead, and stooping to release the stiletto heel from the rucked fabric. "We're nearly there now, just keep going."
Once more, S'rR's slung Meliden's arm across her shoulder, then gripped her round the waist, guiding the Cardassian officer as easily as a small child.
"I know your Da-the Admiral can keep getting Romulan Ale, but how could you let me drink so much?!" Meliden protested, as she staggered forwards. "I know I'm Welsh, but I've got the early duty shift tomorrow! I'm gonna be a right mess!"
"Just drink lots of water before you go to sleep, and replicate a couple cans of Red Targ when you wake up, you'll be fine," S'rR's replied as they navigated round a corner toward the Chief Engineer's quarters.
"I love you, Siri, you're my best friend," Meliden declared, craning her head to kiss S'rR's.
Shifting her head, S'rR's caught the kiss on her cheek, and sighed. "I know, baby, I love you too," she replied tolerantly, reaching out and hitting the door control. As the doors slid open, Meliden staggered through aiming for her work desk, and not even wishing S'rR's a good night, she collapsed heavily into the chair, which spun slightly as the doors sighed closed. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw a blinking from her desk terminal, and without thinking, reached out and slapped the control surface, only to see the screen fill with the head and shoulders of her adoptive mother.
"My God, Mel, you look a right state!"
"Hello, Mam, how are you?" she asked, knowing that it was too late to terminate the connection.
"Oh, I'm fine, love, but you look terrible, what've you been upto?"
"It's new years eve, Mam, I was just having a few drinks with my friends," Meliden sighed, leaning forwards on the desk, and resting her chin on her forearms.
"Meliden Olwen Bowen! Sit up when you talk to me, I refuse to have a conversation with the top of your head! And how many times do I have to tell you, they're not your friends, they're just people you work with! Your're as bad as your father was, always putting other people before his family. Your friends here are always asking after you, no one can ever get hold of you."
"I'm a Starfleet officer, Mam, I'm the chief engineer of a starship, I'm busy most of the time," Meliden replied, sitting back in her chair. "And you know Dad always had time for us. He had time for
On the screen, Caral Bowen frowned.
"You've done something to your hair..."
Meliden brushed a long bang of hair from out of her eyes. "I had it done the other day, do you like it?"
"Well, I can't see half your forehead and face, but I suppose it looks okay."
"Thanks, Mam, that was the idea," Meliden sighed wryly, her head spinning more slowly than before. "So how're things in the village? I hope the weather hasn't been too bad. Is Missus Thomas still teaching?"
"She is, and she still asks after you," replied Caral. "Which reminds me, I ran into your friend Chelsea Jones the other day, and she asked how you were doing. She said she was getting married in a few months."
"Mam, Chelsea Jones isn't my friend! I haven't spoken to her since year nine at school! After I went out with Tommy Webster, she got really nasty, and got all her mates to call me Kim Kardashian!"
"Well, if you will go on your camera without your clothes on, you have to deal with the consequences..."
Meliden closed her eyes, and sighed.
"Mam, I was just a kid then, I know you and Dad did a lot worse when you were my age. Look, it's really late here, and I've got an early start in the morning, I'm going to have to go."
"Alright, but I'll call again in a few days, and it would be nice if you're sober when you answer," Caral said archly.
"I will, Mam, I promise, once a week, new year's resolution," Meliden assured her, reaching out to turn off the monitor, plunging her quarters into darkness.

Cynthia Arellano recorded a hat trick and Carroll seniors combined to score five goals as the Cavaliers hammered Grundy 9-1 in a Southwest District contest on Senior Night at Tommy Thompson Field.It was a real good way to wrap up our season. The girls play perfect tonight. We started out really slow, really sluggish, but once everything got rolling they played very good, Carroll County soccer coach Wayne Edmonds said. They just really played wonderful. I am tickled to death with them. Its a great way to end up our season and hopefully we can carry this momentum in to (the SWD Tournament).Even though Carroll County stayed on the attack most of the game, it came away empty for the first 13 minutes until senior Baily Leonard ripped the net off a perfect corner kick from Arellano. It was just the second career goal for Leonard, who has played defense the majority of her career. Baily usually plays defense, but it was Senior Night and I had to move the roster around a little bit to get all the seniors in. Gosh, didnt they played good? Edmonds said of Arellano, Leonard, Sarah Broyles, Marcie Rosas, Bridgette Kennedy and Kristina Wiles. It was Bailys second goal this year and Chelsea Bobbitt and Suzanne Leonard scored their first goals of the year.Grundy knotted the score with a goal 10 minutes later, but the tie was short lived. Arellano put Carroll back in front four minutes later with an unassisted blast from about 20 yards out. With 7:30 left in the opening half, junior Lauren Roper scored off a powerful free kick to make it 3-1. Bobbitt, a sophomore, had plenty of time to record the first goal of her career. Surrounded by three Grundy defenders from about 10 yards out, Bobbitt gathered herself, took a step back and kicked the ball past everybody for a 4-1 Cavalier lead in the waning moments of the first half.Carroll continued to roll in the second half as Arellano notched her second goal two minutes in, breaking past a Grundy defender and launching from about 25 yards out for a 5-1 lead. Senior Sarah Broyles got in on the action three minutes later, taking a pass off a corner kick from Summer Rigney for another Cavalier goal.Minutes later, Arellano put Carroll in front 7-1 and completed the hat trick with a nicely placed kick from the corner. The goal came after the Cavs booted the ball around in the box for a while following a corner kick.Shes been in a little bit of a slump this year, but its good to see her as a senior go out with a hat trick, Edmonds said. I dont know how many she has scored, but shes been right up there as leading scorer ever since shes been on varsity. This is her fourth year and shes had probably had two of three other hat tricks. She is a scorer.Rigney, who had an assist earlier, made it 8-1 with 15 minutes remaining. The Cavalier junior slipped past a defender in front of the Grundy goal and let fly from 10 yards out for a score. Carroll won by the slaughter rule with 11 minutes left as Suzanne Leonard, Bailys sister, bent a perfect kick from the corner just past the Grundy goalie.Carroll sophomore goalkeeper Hope Bowers didnt get much work with the Cavs on attack all night. That was just fine with Edmonds.She got a little bored back there, but thats the way I like it, Edmonds said.

RH8.0 boot problem
My RH8.0 stopped going through the boot up process. it stops while checking for new hardware process.
It would not go any further. what I did the night before was I added this line to the /etc/fstab file
/dev/hdb3 /mnt/data auto <similar to floppy setting>
the hdb3 is a 600MB partition that I created as VFAT. this is where I put all the files that I want to access from WinXP. well I just want to be able to mount it instead of just root. So that's why I added that line in the fstab. well now it will not boot and stopped at checking new hardware..so if I press <Ctrl><Alt>Del> it will detect the kill signal and then go through the shutdown process. Anyone knows how I could boot up and remove the line in the fstab? or anyway I could fix this problem? thx
/dev/hdb3 /mnt/data auto <similar to floppy setting>
try this :

InformedDNA Reveals Key to Maximizing Efficacy of Genetic Testing in New White Paper
Aims to provide evidence-based information to reduce misuse of genetic testing
ST. PETERSBURG, Fla., July 10, 2014 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ — InformedDNA, the largest independent provider of genetic counseling services, released today a white paper that provides clarity on the appropriate use of genetic testing. Use of these diagnostic tests is growing rapidly, but inappropriate testing has negative consequences for individuals and the U.S. health care system.
The paper, titled Genetic Counseling: Connecting Patients to the Power of Genetics and authored by Rebecca Sutphen, M.D., FACMG, Amber Trivedi, M.S., CGC, and Kelle Steenblock, M.S., CGC, discusses the complexity of testing, gaps in physician understanding, issues regarding access, current guidelines, and the role of trained genetics specialists in helping patients maximize the effectiveness of genetic testing, while avoiding unnecessary, wasteful testing.
"Genetic counseling provided by trained specialists can bridge the gap between patients and the appropriate use of genetic testing. It provides an evidence-based solution that allows specialists to ensure the right patient gets the right test," said Sutphen, President and Chief Medical Officer of InformedDNA. "The results of a genetic test can also have an enormous impact on future health care-related choices. Genetics specialists help patients evaluate their results and make more informed choices based on the best and most current information available."
While genetic testing can provide a life-saving service, it only paints a partial picture of a patient's health risks. In order to accurately determine a patient's risk-profile, the following steps are taken by genetic specialists:
-- Conduct a complete personal and family history risk assessment. -- Determine whether a patient is appropriate for genetic testing and, if so, which test is right for them. -- If a test is ordered, interpret the results in the context of the patient's family history and help them develop a personalized care plan in coordination with their physicians.
However, there are gaps in physician knowledge of genetics and with more than 10,000 genetic tests available, it's not surprising that as many as half of tests are ordered inappropriately. Misuse of genetic testing can carry a number of unintended consequences. In 2010, annual spending on genetic testing eclipsed $5 billion and could reach $25 billion within a decade. As payers continue to look for ways to reduce costs, consulting with genetic specialists can safeguard insurers against paying for diagnostics that are not medically useful, while also improving quality of care.
"Inappropriate testing can have unintended consequences for patients, even beyond their individual health," said Steenblock, InformedDNA's Senior Vice President for Clinical Services. "Genetic counselors help patients navigate these difficult issues."
About InformedDNA
InformedDNA helps individuals and health care providers accurately interpret family health history and genetics, bringing the promise of personalized healthcare to life. InformedDNA is the authority on the appropriate use of genetic testing – leveraging the expertise of the largest network of independent genetic specialists to help ensure health plans, hospitals, employers, community clinicians and patients all have access to the highest quality genetic services.

LAS CRUCES, N.M. (AP) - New Mexico State University officials say a theft of a university employee's laptop containing dozens of students' personal information is unlikely to lead to identity theft.
The Las Cruces Sun-News reported Sunday that 170 students received a letter Aug. 11 saying the thief wasn't targeting the computer's data.
NMSU head of information technology Norma Grijalva says there was no information that could make the school's central computing system vulnerable to hackers.
According to court documents, authorities arrested 19-year-old Oscar D. Quintana of Sunland Park for the theft. Quintana told police he sold the laptop after stealing it last June.
The laptop contained students' birthdates and Social Security numbers.
Grijalva says officials are trying to raise security awareness and the school continues to enhance its training in data security.

Based on classic "Experiencing God" principles, Hearing God's Voice is for those who are ready to listen. Beloved author Henry Blackaby and his son Richard help those who are listening to discern the voice of God, to identify ways He speaks, and to respond to His revelations of His will. God speaks to individuals in ways that are personal and unique to each person. God will never say anything that contravenes what He has said in the Bible, and usually He confirms what He has said. After you learn to listen to God, hearing from God will be as natural as communicating with a close friend.

This is a real encounter with scripture along with warm fellowship with your church family—a true refreshing pause in your often busy week. Plan to join us. Dinner is served starting at 5:45 pm and the Bible study starts at 6:30 pm.
Men's Group meets weekly on Saturday at 7:00 AM at La Madeline's.
Sunrise Senior Living Bible Study Meets At Sunrise, 2900 Duke St. 7 p.m. Wednesdays Information- Paul Hughley.
For more information about any of the small groups please contact the church office.
