EL SEGUNDO, Calif. -- Jeff Carter's blond, scruffy playoff beard is just long enough to obscure the chip on the Los Angeles Kings forward's shoulder. It reveals itself when talking about his path to Southern California. "A lot of people were doubting me out there," Carter told reporters at the Toyota Center on Sunday. "I know that. This an opportunity to go out there, get a Stanley Cup and prove everybody wrong." "Everybody" is certainly an exaggeration, although those nonbelievers were quieted at least briefly with Carter's game-winning goal in Game 2 on Saturday, an overtime tally that gave the Kings a 2-1 victory and a 2-0 edge in the Stanley Cup Final. The best-of-7 series resumes at Staples Canter Monday night. Carter was dealt by the Philadelphia Flyers a team that drafted him in the first round in 2003 to the Columbus Blue Jackets last June. Exiled could be more accurate, however, as Carter went from a team that he helped to the finals in 2010 to a Columbus team that ...

PORTLAND — Officers from a Portland regional gang task force raided several sites before dawn Wednesday morning and served warrants.
Sgt. Pete Simpson, the Portland police spokesman, tells KGW-TV that details about the raids will be released by the U.S. attorney's office.
The raids were carried out by the Metro Gang Task Force, which has members from police departments in the region and federal law enforcement agencies.

Ever since it became official that New Orleans will drop "Hornets" and become the "Pelicans" next season, Charlotte is in full force trying to reclaim the team's original nickname to replace "Bobcats." Titled "Let's take back our buzz," (which sounds like some motto for hard core drinkers) check out the video of the push for "Hornets" to return to Charlotte. Between a hornet and a bobcat, the bobcat sounds more ferocious but I get it. The city wants to go back to its roots and perhaps use it as a fresh start considering the Bobcats have not been successful in the NBA. But I wonder if any team will be clamoring to claim the "Bobcats" team name in the future. it is much better than the "Pelicans." Yeah I am not a fan of that new name for New Orleans.

(CBS/AP) Rick Salomon - who has become something of a specialist in short relationships with celebrities - agrees with his wife Pamela Anderson that their two-month marriage should be voided, according to court papers filed Friday, March 21, 2008.
In papers responding to a filing by Anderson, Salomon agreed that the marriage should be annulled based on "fraud," though neither set of documents elaborated. Salomon did not ask for spousal support in the papers, and asks that it not be awarded to Anderson.
Salomon, who married Anderson Oct. 6, 2007, in Las Vegas and separated Dec. 13, is best known for making a sex videotape with then-girlfriend Paris Hilton and was previously married to actress Shannen Doherty for nine months.
According to Us Magazine, Pam Anderson spent Easter Sunday with ex-husband Tommy Lee in Malibu, California.
The former couple has two sons, Brandon, 11, and Dylan, 9, from their 1995-1998 marriage. The family went to the movies and had lunch at Geoffrey's, Us reported.

However it happened, Scott Thompson made it through multiple high-level jobs without a challenge to his claim of a bachelor's degree in accounting and computer science from Stonehill College. But then the new CEO of Yahoo ran into activist investor Daniel Loeb.
The head of hedge fund Third Point, which is the largest institutional investor in the Sunnyvale company, is waging a proxy battle with Thompson and Yahoo directors over seats on the board. On Wednesday, Thompson stressed a lack of qualifications for Loeb and some of his candidates to be on the Yahoo board — so Loeb went public Thursday afternoon with the allegation that Thompson couldn't have a computer science degree since it wasn't offered when he went to Stonehill. Yahoo admitted to an "inadvertent" error and removed the offending line from Thompson's online bio and promised a probe.
It's going to be a lot harder to make the problem disappear.

Yahoo's CEO Takes A Credibility Hit

Yahoo CEO Scott Thompson has been using a resume with a false claim for more than a decade. Activist shareholder Daniel Loeb unveiled Thompson's lack of a computer science degree during a proxy fight, saying it raises issues about his credibility and the board members who hired him.

Storified by Staci D Kramer · Fri, May 04 2012 09:45:20

However it happened, Scott Thompson made it through multiple high-level jobs without a challenge to his claim of a bachelor's degree in accounting and computer science from Stonehill College. Then he ran into shareholder Daniel Loeb, who is waging an open war with Thompson and Yahoo directors over seats on the board, and went public Thursday with the allegation that Thompson couldn't have a computer science degree since it wasn't offered when he was at school. Yahoo admitted to an "inadvertent" error and removed the offending line from Thompson's online bio. It's going to be a lot harder to make the problem disappear.

Loeb sent a letter to Yahoo, filed it with the SEC and posted it on a site set up to tell Third Point's side during the proxy fight:

Upon recognizing this discrepancy, Third Point initially assumed that the documents we had reviewed were incorrect and the representations in Yahoo!'s public filings were accurate. However, we were then informed by Stonehill College that Mr. Thompson did indeed graduate with a degree in accounting only. Furthermore, Stonehill College informed us that it did not begin awarding computer science degrees until 1983 — four years after Mr. Thompson graduated. We inquired whether Mr. Thompson had taken a large number of computer science courses, perhaps allowing him to justify to himself that he had "earned" such a degree. Instead, we learned that during Mr. Thompson's tenure at Stonehill only one such course was even offered – Intro to Computer Science. Presumably, Mr. Thompson took that course.

(A small piece of advice for Loeb: as a favorite editor of mine says, "Assume nothing, presume nothing.")

Wait, there's more

Loeb also made a revelation about Patti Hart, the board member who headed the search committee that recommended Thompson. Turns out she had claimed a  "Bachelor's degree in marketing and economics" from Illinois State University; her actual degree was in business administration.

When he was at eBay, filings with the SEC described Thompson's credentials accurately, even while his company bio included he computer science degree. At Yahoo, it was included in the bio filed as part of the proxy statement – as was Hart's. That elevates the potential problem to one of filing misinformation with the SEC. Either way, it appears to to be a clear violation of Yahoo's code of ethics:

Disclosure in reports and documents filed with or submitted to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and in other public communications made by Yahoo! must be full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable

undefinedRackcdn

Loeb demanded an investigation, suggested that Thompson and Hart both be removed if there aren't good explanations, and pushed again for a change to the board before the yet-to-be-scheduled annual meeting. Loeb is demanding four seats on the board, including one for himself. The other candidates proposed by Third Point are former NBCU CEO Jeff Zucker,  McKinsey/Viacom alum Michael Wolf and corporate turnaround expert Harry J. Wilson. Yahoo agreed to seats for Wilson and a second mutually agreed-on candidate but rejected Loeb. In a letter to shareholders filed Wednesday, Yahoo said:

The board continues to believe that Mr. Loeb himself does not bring the relevant skill set and experience to the board, particularly in comparison to the candidates selected by the board. In addition, we believe that, based on the specific qualifications of Third Point's nominees relative to Yahoo!'s business and opportunities, the candidates nominated by the board's Nominating and Governance Committee are significantly superior to those proposed by Third Point.

No one at Yahoo needs another distraction

This wave of allegations and revelations comes as Thompson's reorganization kicks in. Last month, he sliced 2,000 jobs from the payroll and announced a new setup that took effect May 1. Despite Loeb's complaints, it appeared as though Thompson was on track to follow through.

Whatever comes next, Thompson's tenure has a tarnish on it now.  That's led to instant speculation …

In order to get anywhere in business, you have to know what you want and how to get it. That's why setting your goals — both long- and short-term — is the first step to getting there.
By J.D. Piland
You can't get lost if you don't know where you're going.
Well, yes, but that really only applies if you're an adventurer/explorer and have a lot of time on your hands—not if you're a business owner. Framing your company around that saying won't get you far at all—and more than likely will lead to a dead end. And then there is that little problem of not getting any loans or financial backing of any kind from anyone.
But, unfortunately, you may succumb to "the overriding weakness among entrepreneurs," says Karen Graff, a consultant with the Central California Small Business Development Center, who has more than 25 years of experience guiding small-business owners. "Most entrepreneurs don't have a set of clearly defined goals or objectives when they start their business. They can skate around, but that is a road map that will get them nowhere."
The overarching characteristic of business owners—especially new ones—is naïveté, she adds. "We counsel them to live in the entrepreneurs' or business owners' mindset. It's not for the faint."
Entrepreneurs should have their goals in mind when starting a business, and established business owners should revisit their goals so their purpose remains focused. The goals—or objectives, as Graff prefers to call them—are a part of the business plan.
The business plan, in most instances, boils down to serving as a goal-setting tool. The components of a plan—mission statement, company profile, marketing research and sometimes a financial report—all help determine what the company is meant to do and how it will do it.
From the Start
Starting a business is all about direction and planning. Remember that little light bulb that flashed in your mind? That "Eureka!" moment when you knew you wanted to start your own business? From that moment on, you were setting goals and looking to achieve them.
"Goals are guidelines and without them—and without having realistic goals—we are defeating ourselves," Graff says.
Setting your goals is quite easy, actually—it's all about your style and preference. Graff says she has consulted people who come in with highly detailed goals—broken down to daily objectives—and some who simply function off their mission statement and go with the flow of business.
But, "a successful entrepreneur, by nature, always wants to plan," says Doug Williams, president of business consulting firm Doug Williams & Associates. He suggests setting your goals at a three- to five-year horizon when starting out.
Goal setting helps you prioritize where financial resources should be allocated, and what aspects of the business you need to focus on. It also allows you to align short- and long-term decisions within the context of your overall objective.
Business owners need to spend time thinking about and planning what they are going to do with the business, Williams says. "What are you going to offer and how? How do you plan on doing that?" he asks.
These questions are for you to consider, and will show lenders you are serious about your business. Graff says bankers and lenders "don't look for the better mouse trap." A lot of owners think that because they have the next great product or service, they will be set for life; they think customers will flock to them, no questions asked. However, a banker or lender looks for the customer base that will drive your company; the lender wants to know that you will have sustained business before handing over the funds, Graff says.
Put it in Writing
With only about 30 percent of business owners compiling a business plan, the goals and objectives of the company generally are confined to the owner's mind. That's not a good place for them, Graff says. "A good idea is not enough," she adds. "Goals not published or written down are not worth anything."
Williams agrees. "Without question, your goals must be on paper," he says. "When you put it in writing, you formalize it and remember them. It's like taking notes during a lecture; you can just listen, but you don't retain as much information as when taking notes. Rarely do you see goals realized if they are not written."
The next question becomes whether to distribute the written goals. Graff recommends that they be distributed, but the manner in doing so is of personal preference. Post them on a wall, print and hand them out, include in an employee handbook, whichever way suits you is probably OK. "Anything that builds team spirit," she adds.
The Long and Short of it
Moving forward, you should set your goals for the future, not just the first year of business.
Remember, though, that these extended goals hinge on how quickly your initial, short-term goals are realized. This runs case by case and depends on your market, your customer base, and your products or services.
Because your goals can change in no time, Williams suggests business owners, especially new ones, check and update their objectives and plans quarterly. "And then, at least every year, plan and re-plan what you are going to do," he adds.
Consider setting a five-year plan. According to the National Federation of Independent Business, "five-year goals address broad, fundamental aspects of a company's growth and differ from quarterly or one-year goals in that aspect.
"While a one-year goal may be to add several sales staff and increase revenue by 5 percent to 10 percent, an appropriate five-year goal may be to establish an efficient and broad network of distribution that allows a 50 percent or greater percentage growth in revenue," the NFIB says. "Five-year goals that address the fundamental long-term growth of a company can be established only by objectively examining the company's present strengths and weaknesses."
The NFIB published these tips to help you set your five-year goals. Remember to get feedback from your employees when setting your goals:
- Determine your company's current strong and weak points.
- Consult marketing professionals and others in your industry to determine trends and potential areas for business growth.
- Work with your financial partners to determine how the company realistically can achieve these longer-term goals.
- Create a short mission statement. A mission statement lays out the company's activities—not necessarily strategic plans—to achieve these goals. "You can set long-term goals all you like, but it is about how you will achieve them that matters," Graff adds. "You should be more interested in the action plan."

Opened Correspondence Illuminates
The Albert Einstein Archives
at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem recently opened a large collection
of Einstein's personal correspondence from the period 1912 until his
death in 1955. The collection consists of nearly 1,400 items. Among
them are about 300 letters and cards written by Einstein, primarily
to his second wife Elsa Einstein, and some 130 letters Einstein received
from his closest family members. The collection had been in the possession
of Einstein's step-daughter, Margot Einstein, who deposited it with
the Hebrew University of Jerusalem with the stipulation that it remain
closed for twenty
Among Einstein's main correspondents
in the newly released collection are his first wife, Mileva Einstein-Maric,
from whom he was separated in 1914 and divorced in 1919; Einstein's
two sons with Einstein-Maric, Hans Albert and Eduard; Einstein's second
wife and first cousin, Elsa Einstein, whom he married in 1919; Elsa's
two daughters from her previous marriage, Ilse and Margot; and Einstein's
sister, Maja, and her husband, Paul
The newly released letters provide little direct insight into Einstein's scientific work. However, he does write his thoughts on the course of his work and, while traveling, his impressions of people, audiences, and cultural situations in the places he visits. In one letter to Elsa in 1916, during a visit with Paul Ehrenfest in Leiden, he wrote how pleased he was with the reception accorded relativity theory in the Netherlands. In another letter in 1920, he wrote of his mounting distress over the anti-relativity movement in Berlin, and by 1921, after lecturing extensively to the general public, he admitted, "Soon I'll be fed up with the relativity. Even such a thing fades away when one is too involved with it ..." The new letters also show that, even during his most intense periods of work, he was often corresponding intensely with family members on personal matters.
The new correspondence reveals
many aspects of Einstein's private and public life: his complex relations
with his first wife Mileva and his second wife Elsa, with other women
in his life, and with his two sons, as well as his most personal thoughts
on self-image and on his closest family members, friends, and colleagues.
They show his engagement and at times deep passion for various political
and social causes, such as pacifism and Jewish

The eldest princess is honest and always tells the truth. The youngest princess is dishonest and always lies. The middle princess is mischievous and tells the truth sometimes and lies the rest of the time.
As you will be forever married to one of the princesses, you want to marry the eldest (truth-teller) or the youngest (liar) because at least you know where you stand with them.
The problem is that you cannot tell which sister is which just by their appearance, and the King will only grant you ONE yes or no question which you may only address to ONE of the sisters. What yes or no question can you ask which will ensure you do not marry the middle sister?
This is not a trick question, and the answer is not anything like "is this statement a lie?" The solution is nice and elegant.

Full text not available from this repository.
Upgrade of the EFDA-JET experimental fusion device has generated interest in remote non-contact surface measurement of protective metallic tile surfaces inside the machine during shutdown periods. The measurement of gap and step features of 0.35-2mm and 0.04-0.2mm respectively, deposition and erosion on planar facets and the form of the complete vessel required specific testing to understand if existing systems could meet project requirements. This paper describes investigations against planar facets posed at differing angles to both fringe projection and tracked laser triangulation non-contact measurement technologies. System capabilities demonstrate typical plane fitting capabilities of the order of 20μm RMS, but highlight systematic discrepancies in the collected data. © 2009 SPIE.

HSBC "lift" by Grey London
Agency: Grey London
Rating: 5.0
By Simon John and Ian Haughton, brandrepublic.com, Wednesday, 12 October 2011 08:30AM
Recent high-profile brand relaunches, including those of British Airways, Greene King and Pizza Express, have all focused on the authentic values of the brand.
British Airways has resurrected the 'To fly. To serve' line that originally appeared on its tailfins, Greene King's rebranding is built around 'Authentic Hospitality' - defined as a genuine, warm welcome, excellent service and a total commitment to meeting customers' needs, while Pizza Express has refreshed the brand by drawing on imagery from the pizzaiolo of the 1960s.
In the past it was possible to launch and even succeed with brands that were somewhat superficial and didn't always deliver on their promise - but today's much greater openness and transparency mandates that brands have to be authentic.
Most of the world's leading brands are authentic, and authentic brands tend to become leaders in their category.
Disney, IBM, Coca-Cola, McDonald's, Singapore Airlines, VW, Apple, First Direct and The Body Shop are all authentic brands - and leaders.
So what makes for an authentic brand? Originality, a genuine heritage, sincerity, familiarity and a real purpose are all key components.
The power of social media means that brands that try to claim one of these territories without good reason will get found very quickly.
Perhaps most importantly, to be authentic a brand has to deliver what it says it's going to deliver.
McDonald's might not be to your taste but the brand does deliver what it promises most of the time.
If by definition, leading brands are authentic, then it may be more interesting to look at inauthentic brands.
We've found four types of inauthentic brands: firstly there's the simple copy-cat brand.
Think of the many KFC look-alikes found in inner city high streets - Texas, Dixie, Tennessee Fried Chicken and so on.
These are hardly authentic brands, although their local sales may be good. They are straightforward copies (and indeed KFC's legal teams are becoming much more vigilant in addressing these look-alikes).
Then there are brands that aren't actually copying anyone else but lack originality, heritage and a sense of purpose - we're thinking of the many financial price comparison sites, for example.
Comparethemarket's meerkats get lots of attention, but what's the brand really about?
How is it different from other price comparison sites? What will happen when we tire of meerkat jokes?
The same is true of the many loan consolidation and injury compensation 'brands'.
These brands often rely on heavy media spend, careful targeting and direct response for their sales - familiarity, heritage and originality are usually absent.
The third category is those brands which have familiarity but seem to lack a clear consumer-focused purpose - we're thinking of DFS, Swinton and One World.
We're not sure what they stand for. They aren't copy-cats but they don't feel authentic to us.
Finally there are those brands that are authentic on many levels but overclaim - and don't deliver.
BP is authentic in many ways, but the 'Beyond Petroleum' claim was a step too far for a company that was primarily a petroleum company.
Post Deepwater Horizon the brand has dropped the Beyond Petroleum line.
It's clear that authenticity is key and something all brand custodians must focus on if they're to build brand value and loyalty over the long term.

WhatsApp Messenger (WAM) is a proprietary, cross-platform instant messaging application for smartphones. In addition to basic messaging WhatsApp Messenger users can send each other images, video and audio media messages.
WhatsApp Messenger is available for iOS,BlackBerry OS,Android,Symbian and Windows Phone only. WhatsApp synchronizes with the phone's contact's book, so users do not need to add contacts in a separate book.[citation needed] Underlying communication is done using the open standard XMPP..
In May 2011 there was a security hole reported in WhatsApp which left user accounts open for hijacking. According to some sources, it is believed that this hack was performed, and later fixed by helping WhatsApp reproduce it on Android and Symbian, by Liroy van Hoewijk, CEO of CoreISP.net.
Since May 2011 it has been reported that communications made by WhatsApp are not encrypted, and data is sent and received in plaintext, meaning messages can easily be read if packet traces are available. In May of 2012 security researchers noted that new updates of WhatsApp no longer sent messages as plaintext.

The Obama administration promised Friday that the financially strapped "cash for clunkers" program would be alive at least through the weekend, and the House of Representatives approved additional money for the program later in the day.
Senate action is expected next week.
"If you were planning on going to buy a car this weekend, using this program, this program continues to run," White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs told reporters.
The House passed a bill 316-109 that would pour $2 billion from the economic stimulus program into the "cash-for-clunkers" initiative and give consumers more time to take advantage of trade-in rebates up to $4,500 for older cars.
President Obama said initially there had been skeptics about the car-purchase program, but that now "we're already seeing a dramatic increase in showroom traffic" across the country. He said the program "gives consumers a break" and helps to reduce pollution.
Before the vote, John McEleney, chairman of the National Automobile Dealers Association, said many dealers have been confused about whether the program will be extended and for how long. Many stopped offering the deals Thursday after word came out that the funds available for the refunds had been exhausted.
"We are hoping for some clarity from the White House and Congress before the day is over," McEleney said Friday.
Carmakers and dealers have booked expensive advertising to capitalize on buyers' interest in CARS, and now will be left promoting a tie-in with an uncertain government program — one that wasn't supposed to end until Nov. 1. "Disappointed," said Chrysler spokesman Scott Brown.
"It's too late to recall the ads," says Beau Boeckmann of Galpin Ford, the nation's largest Ford dealer, in Los Angeles. Galpin had done about 100 clunker deals and was hoping for more. " We had increased our ad budget to get the word out. We are very heavy on radio, newspaper and getting direct mail together," Boeckmann says.
"Now what do you tell people when they walk in" for a clunker deal? "It's tough."
Members of the Ohio and Michigan congressional delegations huddled on Capitol Hill to discuss ways to keep the popular program alive.
Sen. Carl Levin, D-Mich., said it wasn't clear when a Senate vote would be held.
Sen. Debbie Stabenow, D-Mich., said about 40,000 new vehicles had been purchased through the program but dealers estimate another 200,000 vehicles have been sold in transactions that have not yet been completed.
One participant in the Capitol Hill meeting said they were examining possible funding sources and whether there were any glitches in the computer system. The participant, who spoke on condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the talk, said they were also studying how many dealers had enrolled in the system.
Through Wednesday afternoon, more than 23,000 dealer franchises were participating, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
The administration dispatched Brian Deese, a top adviser to the Treasury's auto task force, to the Hill meeting.
On Thursday, word that the program was suspended came from Bailey Wood, legislative director for the National Automobile Dealers Association (NADA), which had been called Thursday night by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, which administers the program. Rep. Candice Miller, R-Mich., confirmed the suspension as well, saying she had been told by congressional leaders.

Pittsburgh Penguins (13-7-0) @ Carolina Hurricanes (9-8-1) ROOT, FS-CR, NHLN-US - 7:00 pm/et PNC Arena - Raleigh, NC With Evgeni Malkin injured, Brandon Sutter has had to step up and move outside of his typical third line center role. Jordan Staal knows a thing or two about that situation. Tonight the Pittsburgh Penguins face Jordan Staal for the first time. His trade at the draft in Pittsburgh was a big deal and it changed the team. We've gone into detail about what Jordan Staal meant to the Pens more than once. However, now we've got to put on a brave face and see Jordan as the enemy: Don't worry though. We totally prepared for this: Yeah, this post is almost entirely Simpsons references. When you combine the classic Hurricane Neddy episode with the fact that the Hurricanes have players named "Skinner" and "McBain", we really have no other choice.

Last week I spoke with two different Security as a Service vendors, each with their own approaches to security as a service. The first company I spoke to was CloudPassage who just exited stealth mode in time for RSA Conference, and Zscaler who is a well known company. Both provide Security as a Service with a similar approach by a different design. Both make use of large grids or computers to do all the heavy lifting of security, but from there they differ completely. While there is some overlap in the products, the different designs show us multiple ways to implement Security as a Service.

Applications Performance Equals Response Time, not Resource Utilization
• • 3 Comments
Transaction rate, an average response time goal, and an allowable upper bound, combined with transaction rate will come to define performance and capacity. These new metrics will get monetized allowing applications owners to shop for price/performance curves across internal and external service providers on a rational and economic basis.

Virtual Computer collaborates with Lenovo-NxTop the industry's best enterprise-class type 1 client hypervisor?
• • 0 Comments
Virtual Computer are to optimize their NxTop client virtualization and management solution to operate with select models of Lenovo laptops and desktops PC platforms. For their part, Lenovo will allow customers to have Virtual Computer's NxTop client loaded onto their custom images, direct from the factory. There are a number of client hypervisor solutions that can be used by enterprises today. The focus for these have been on security. At moment, the only vendor offering an enterprise ready PC management solution based on client hypervisor is Virtual Computer. The partnership withLenovo is likely first in line of tie-ups. Nxtop is Enterprise ready, with such deals Enterprises will be better ready for NxTop.
A couple of weeks ago, you could be forgiven for not ever having even heard of webOS, but now after HP CEO Leo Apotheker confirmed that starting in 2012, every HP PC will include the ability to run webOS in addition to Windows, if you profess to having any understanding of mobile platforms you have to profess to have at least some understanding of what webOS is and why it is important.
User Virtualization makes your user's information manageable and portable. With User Virtualization the components of a desktop relating to the user are decoupled from the operating system and applications. Goldman Sachs investment is not to gain market share per se, but to allow AppSense to rapidly expand to meet the demand that their product has generated and helps drive a rapidly expanding desktop virtualization and management market.
I just finished reading, yet another Multi-Tenancy Design/Overview that claims to be secure or trusted. While I will agree that this particular design does cover Availability and some GRC (Governance, Regulatory, and Compliance) it is severely lacking in Integrity and Confidentiality. The design even went as far as saying the cloud/virtual administrator requires "COMPLETE VISIBILITY." I was really taken aback by those words. Why does an administrator need 'COMPLETE VISIBILITY?' Which leads me to the question is Integrity and Confidentiality possible within any cloud or virtual environment? Or is it purely based on TRUST?
If so this is an appalling state of virtual and cloud environment security.

Constructing a Best of Breed Alternative to VMware vCenter Operations Enterprise
• • 0 Comments
With VMware vCenter OPS, VMware has stated that performance, capacity, and configuration data need to be integrated into a self-learning model in order to monitor a dynamic system. This model can be implemented as well using third party solutions like those from Quest, CA Technologies, AppDynamics, Bluestripe, dynaTrace, VKernel, NetApp, Netuitive, Net Relic, Coradiant, VMTurbo, Xangati, and Zenoss.
In July 2009 I wrote an article entitled Cloud Computing Providers — are they content providers or carriers? and in January of 2011 Chuck Hollis wrote an article Verizon To Acquire Terremark — You Shouldn't Be Surprised. Now with the Terremark acquisition almost complete and RSA Conference 2011 also over, at which I talked to Terremark about the benefits of belonging to Verizon, a picture is starting to emerge. Yes, my predictions in 2009 make sense and still hold forth today, but is there more of an impact than we realize?
Six months after its debut appearance at VMworld last September, VMware has finally released its long anticipated VMware View client for the iPad, and it looks as though it was worth the wait.

Overall User Rating: American Metalcraft MSSF75 4-Piece Stainless Steel Measuring Spoon Set ( 4.8 stars from 36 reviews )
These measuring spoons are a nice solid weight and are easy to hold and use, I love that they are stainless steel and can go right in the high temp commercial dishwasher. I have probably 8 or 9 sets of measuring spoons,and these are by far my favorite,
Marilyn H. from The Lake George B&B Posted on 05/30/2015
Measuring products properly is the biggest key to success for your recipes - especially when it comes to cakes and pastries. When you're working with products like xanthin gum, the stakes are even higher. It's absolutely worth it to invest in a great set of measuring spoons. These have a nice flat rim, easy-to-read markings on the handle of each spoon, and come with a ring to keep them all together. They're made of a sturdy, high-quality metal that should last you a very, very long time. Their low price makes them a no-brainer for any kitchen - commercial or home.
James D. Posted on 04/21/2015
Great quality measuring spoon at a great price! I use these exclusively in my baking business. I even bought and extra set for home! Love them!
Andrea D. from Home Grown Cakes Posted on 03/21/2015
These measuring spoons are great and will last because they are sturdy and stainless steel. Because of this I don't have to worry about what I need to measure when using these. - I had plastic measuring spoons and found that certain items was actually removing parts of the plastic. Plus I'm had other cheap metal measuring spoons that were flimsy. So glad I found this website and found such good products.
Betty S. Posted on 01/19/2015
These measuring spoons are a great value for the price.I like the size as they fit easily into the baking powder & baking soda containers. They are also sturdy. I have washed them many times in the dishwasher with no issues at all.
Tetyana K. Posted on 12/14/2014
These are the most durable measuring spoons for the price! I do a lot of baking for our bistro and they are a necessity! At this price you can't beat it.
James B. Posted on 12/07/2014
These are good, solid measuring spoons. They will last forever. The downside is the spoon part is not level with the handle so it's hard to level of the top of whatever you're measuring. There's another set that's about the same price that's better.
Cory H. Posted on 11/28/2014
Made of thicker gauge than other sets I own. Solid spoons and wide handles; hardly any flexing at all. The length of handles vary from 3-1/2", with the biggest bowl, to a smidge under 4", with the smallest bowl. The units of measure, which are provided in both US and metric, are engraved on the handles in large, easy-to-read fonts versus being ink-imprinted (which could rub off). However, there are a couple of issues that hinder the spoons' usefulness. The first issue is one of design: the handles are offset or raised from the bowls, making it harder to level off heaps to attain better measurement accuracy. The second issue is one of quality of control: the brim of the spoons have undulations; it's not level and smooth, so measurements aren't going to be precise.
Kit C. Posted on 10/22/2014
Thank you for your review! We are sorry you did not like your measuring set. Try this Tablecraft Measuring Set for easy leveling. This set has the measurements engraved directly into the handle to ensure that they will never wear off.

These are well made sturdy measuring spoons with deep well that are easy to use. I like the fact that this set comes with a half tablespoon which I didn't think I would use at first but I find my self use it more and more.
Matthew T. Posted on 10/18/2014
these are good but not great. Pretty flimsy but they were very cheap so that was to be expected. They still work so no major complaints.
Andrea H. Posted on 10/10/2014
I think this spoon set is very sturdy. I bought it from this website on February 2014 and now is August 2014 and it has been working with no problem. I use it everyday for measuring oil, spices, vinegar etc. I wash it with hand. It says its stainless steel and i believe them because i have has no problem of rusting or such. A must have for any cook or any kitchen. Very affordable price. Great addition to my kitchen.
Kriti S. Posted on 08/24/2014
Great-looking set of stainless steel measuring spoons for every day use. Measures accurately and the sharp edges make it easy to scoop off the excess.
Alistair L. Posted on 08/23/2014
The spoons are one piece spoons so there is nothing to break on them. The metal is very thick so it's unlikely they will be bent. I like how it has metric and US measurements on the spoons. I did not like how the handle is slightly higher than the bowl of the spoon so it's difficult to heap the spoon and then scrape it to get the measurement perfect. I also did not like the keyring style ring. I have replaced the ring with a snapping ring so I can take out spoons more easily.
William A. Posted on 07/26/2014
These are good measuring spoons. It is not heavy duty, but you probably wouldn't need a really heavy duty spoon since it just used for measuring only.
Cheryl S. from Gluten Free Kids Posted on 06/04/2014
These measuring spoons are great for many needs, and being stainless are easy to clean, durable, and will last for years. Great for measuring spices.
Cameron W. Posted on 05/22/2014

Maureen M. from Farmers Posted on 04/17/2014
These are quality heavy duty professional-appearing measuring spoons that do what they are supposed to, providing an accurate measurement of ingredients. they wash up well and maintain their new appearance wash after wash.
Renae G. Posted on 02/09/2014
These measuring spoons are excellent quality and will last you for years. We use them every day for measuring and everything comes out perfect. I reccomend them!
Andrea R. Posted on 12/03/2013
These are great for the price! I also bought the 4-Piece Heavy Duty Measuring Spoon Set, and I think I prefer those slightly because of the slender handle. But both sets have been serving me very well.
Brooke P. from Pye Posted on 10/08/2013
Best quality measuring spoons I've found for the price! Sturdy and rugged, these will stand up to tons of use. American Metalcraft comes through again.

Carol S. Posted on 03/15/2012
These measuring spoons are just perfect. I am buying some more! Heavy duty, sturdy, and precise, these little guys will last! And, you can't beat the price!
Marina S. from CookieTime Posted on 10/15/2011
Excellent. Wide handles for comfortable use, engraved units of measure, shallow bowls that fit into my spice containers and also facilitate tapping ingredients into work bowls for gradual ingredient integration. I purchased two sets for home use.
Andrea H. Posted on 02/26/2011
These are very heavy duty. The rims were rough on the ones we got, but they work very will and will last forever. Good price, too.
David H. Posted on 12/23/2010
Every kitchen must have a set of measuring spoons and these ones are the best since they are made from the stainless steel. They are easy to use and clean and take little space. The ring that they are kept on can also be used to hand the whole set on a hook or on a nail that is affixed to the wall. Since these measuring spoons are made from stainless steel then they should last a very long time. I like these scoops so much that I will order another 2 because they are so useful. The scoops would also make great gifts, because they are quality-made and do not cost a lot of money.
Alexander G. Posted on 09/20/2010
All 4 sizes of measuring spoons are great for different spices and seasonings.
These are great little measuring spoons. They are very durable, worth buying a couple sets. These were supposed to be my backup set to my nice measuring spoons, but they ended up being the primary ones I go to because the nice round shape makes it easier to get ingredients out. Buy a few!
Jeffrey B. Posted on 08/08/2010
for being as cheap as they are they are still very sturdy, they are stamped out of one pice of metal so nothing to break, the handles are very wide for an easy grip and they are stamped with there size in a large font for easy reading.

I do see the scratches (parallel marks in a variety of directions), but I was trying to address the "wavy lines" described by OP - which I really don't see in his pics. So I probably shouldn't have commented at all.
As two types of film base are affected, and presumably two styles of film development are used, a common cause seems to lie outside the actual processing. I find it hard to believe the idea that pre-soaking the film can scratch the non-emulsion side. So I'd like to ask how the film is stored before use? In a freezer compartment of a fridge or just in the cool compartment? And how quickly is it normally warmed up to room temperature?
I keep the film in the fridge until it is ready to be used. There is usually a couple of hours between storage removal and use.
Have these negatives been printed yet? Do the lines show up in prints? If they do not, then why worry about it?
You might want to sacrifice a sheet right out of the box to check for problems. You can always use it for fixer checks.
What was your temperature control like ? By that I mean how accurate and consistent between all the stages of processing including washing. It looks like the emulsion has been significantly softened, maybe has reticulated, it would scratch incredibly easily.
I use HP5 it's my film of choice for hand-held LF work and I find the results outstanding, I also process at 26-27°C when in Turkey, that's the water temperature in the Summer and it's easier to be consistent, however I've never had a problem with HP5, Delta 100 & 400, Tmax 100, or Fomapan 100 & 200.
Rodinal contains Potassium Hydroxide and that can soften emulsions, along with poor temperature controls you might get issues. I say might because I never used HP5 & Rodinal although I used Rodinal for over 25 years with other films again no problems personally. I jave seen a problem with someone else processing.
Quit squeegeeing the film. Use a good surfactant such as LFN after washing instead. This can easily be the source of all of your scratches, both straight and wiggly.
Dear Snay 1345,
Firstly, I am sorry you have experienced an issue with an ILFORD film.
I cannot be 100% certain, you cannot be until you see the negs but its highly unlikely to be a problem with manufacture, especially across the two formats.
We have a QC ( quality control ) list where I can see any current QC's in our system, we have none related to HP5+ at all across any format at present.
The most important thing is that you bought an ILFORD film, you are obviously entitled to have it checked out, you need to tell us the batch numbers and return the negs to us ( Marked for technical service HARMAN technology LImited at the UK address ) and importantly tell us if you want the negs back, we will then examine the film and tell you what it is.
You will get one of three answers : Cause Justified = A problem existed in manufacture
Cause Not Certain = We cannot be conclusive as to the cause
Cause Not Justified = No problem in manufacture
If its the first or second we will obviously replace the film free of charge.
Finally some contributors mentioned pre-washing : Firstly HARMAN technology Limited do not recommend pre-washing as we do not believe it is required for even development of modern coated emulsions, BUT If you choose to pre-wash it, it is perfectly safe to do so ( but as with all films not overlong ) and will not harm the film in anyway.
Simon. ILFORD Photo / HARMAN technology limited :
I have these long wavy lines on whole length of the hp5+ 120 film. Development process was like this: pre-wash 2x30 secs, Rodinal 1+50 for 12 minutes, agitation 45 secs + 10 secs every minute, quick wash, stop bath 90 secs, quick wash, 1st fixer 90secs, 2nd fixer 90secs, ilford wash method, 120secs final wash in ilfotol 1+200 solution. Hanged to dry without squeegeeing. I have crud in city water so i use demi water in whole process.
What could have caused it?

"South Pacific's" allure resonates with "finest kind of balance"
The lovely lure of "South Pacific" coupled with the gritty undercurrent of war is infecting the cast and crew of Nordhoff High School as they recreate Rodgers and Hammerstein's stellar musical for its March 7 opening.
When it first hit the Broadway boards in 1949, "South Pacific" was bombarded with 10 Tony Awards, and the 2008 revival won seven, clearly indicating its outstanding place in American musical history.
Part of that is due to the amazing songs that can stand alone, and the courage during the days of blacklisting shown by the creators who wrote a show involving "two parallel love stories threatened by the dangers of prejudice and war," said Director Marty Babayco.
As a review in the New York World-Telegram asserted, the show is "the ultimate modern blending of music and popular theater … with the finest kind of balance between story and song, and hilarity and heartbreak."
Speaking of "the finest kind of balance," Babayco and Musical Director Bill Wagner are back with a creative team that has defined the quality of Nordhoff Musical Department's productions for years, notably set designer John Mirk, vocal director Jaye Hersh and choreographer Julie Hamann.
"All our musicians (a mix of professionals and students) are really looking forward to doing this because it's beautiful music," said Wagner. "The songs are so well done and run the gamut from poignant to fun."
The score allows men to show off their basso profundo in "Some Enchanted Evening," and surely millions of miffed women have sung "I'm Gonna Wash That Man Right Out of My Hair." All ages can relate to "Happy Talk," talkin' about things you like to do.
And for the politically aware, the reality of racism and bigotry in "You've Got to Be Carefully Taught" strikes a nerve even today:
"You've got to be taught to be afraid
Of people whose eyes are oddly made,
And people whose skin is a diff'rent shade,
You've got to be carefully taught."
The key role of Ensign Nellie Forbush is Audrey Pennington, who wants to "wash that man right out of her hair," meaning Emile de Becque, played by Ryan Beaghler, both of whom are already musical veterans. The happy talkin' Bloody Mary is Marin Jorgensen, the madcap sailor Luther Billis is Tiarnan Nelson and the doomed Lt. Joseph Cable is Chance Lang.
Other principles are Roxie Newman, Daniel Colohan, Rowan Gaddis, Derek Kaiser, Jovanna Nava, Zachery Gorman, Spencer Perkins, T.J. Balayan and Emilio Uribe.
The play is adapted from "Tales of the South Pacific" by James Michener, who wrote the series of stories based on his own experience in the Navy during World War II and which won the Pulitzer Prize. Another war veteran, Joshua Logan, adapted it for the stage.
"South Pacific" plays at the Matilija Junior High Auditorium, 703 El Paseo Rd. in Ojai at 7 p.m. Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays March 7-9 and 14-16 and 2 p.m. Sundays, March 10 and 17. Tickets are $20 adults, $15 seniors (65 +) and $10 students, college and younger.

Originally written on Fox Sports Southwest | Last updated 7/6/13
ARLINGTON, Texas On the one hand, it was a great night for Rangers rookie pitcher Nick Tepesch. On the other hand, he still has a lot to work on. Tepesch recorded a career-high nine strikeouts and got the win in a 10-5 win over the Astros. But he also failed to get an out in the sixth inning and once again struggled when facing a lineup for the third time in a game. Batters are now hitting .465 when they face Tepesch a third time in a game. He allowed four runs in the sixth before being pulled after 98 pitchers. But for a guy who had been winless in his last eight outings - the longest winless streak by a Ranger this season its hard to complain after finally posting a W. "It was a good night overall," Tepesch said. "The guys gave me a lot of run support and I felt like it was a good night." Tepesch was handed a 2-0 lead after the first inning, a 6-0 lead after two and a 10-0 lead heading into the sixth. It was the first time the Rangers had scored in double digits since May 1...

In focus: A merged Comcast-Time Warner
Brian L. Roberts, President and Chief Executive Officer of Comcast, points to a reporter during a press conference February 11, 2004 in New York City.
Some mergers have relevance to people's lives says antitrust attorney Allen Grunes, and the proposed Time Warner-Comcast deal is one of them. Grunes, with the firm GeyerGorey, says the internet will be a focal point as the combined company would have at least 40 percent, and as much as 50 percent, of the fastest high-speed internet service market.
There are concerns the deal would make it harder for the next Netflix or Hulu to stream content, because it would have to pay the combined company more. But there are also concerns about what the deal will mean to individual access to the internet.
"We need to make sure these companies are more accountable to consumers around other things as opposed to the future of the internet," says Nicol Turner-Lee, with the Minority Media and Telecom Council.
Comcast, in a filing ahead of the federal review, says as part of the deal it would expand its program to provide more access to low-income communities.

Students testing science ideas
Projects ready for Castle Junior High's 33rd fair
PARADISE, Ind. — Want to know which brand of nail polish stays on the longest?
How about what kind of feed horses prefer? Or what medicines dissolve into the bloodstream fastest?
The answers can be found this week at Castle Junior High School, which is conducting its schoolwide science fair for the 33rd straight year.
Castle has about 900 students in seventh and eighth grades. Each student is required to do an annual science project, and all of them will be presented for judging today.
It's a big undertaking, especially this year because of snow-induced delays. Normally about 60 judges from area industries help out.
This year, because of the earlier cancellation, the school expects about 40.
Castle's staff and the PTA take the science fair seriously because of the thinking and problem-solving skills it teaches. Former teacher Bob Glenn, now in his 80s, is credited for starting the fair. It's now coordinated by Rick Wambach.
"I more or less do it in (Glenn's) honor," Wambach said. "He'll be here to help."
Students set up their exhibits on the gymnasium floor Wednesday afternoon.
Nick Davin, an eighth-grader, compared the flammability of rubbing alcohol, nail polish and lighter fluid and found lighter fluid burned in the fastest time.
"It was because of the mix of ingredients it has," he said.
Marissa Backer, also an eighth-grader, went into her experiment on medications thinking Aleve would dissolve the fastest.
But after testing how long it took Aleve, Tylenol Caplets and Advil to dissolve into water, Marissa found Tylenol required the least time. She said she and her mother brainstormed and came up with the idea for the project.
Technology growing
With today's technology, science fair project ideas can be hatched easier than in years past, science teacher Shannon Tatum said.
Classrooms at Castle Junior High are equipped with video projectors.
Tatum said Web sites offer ideas and suggestions for how to approach different kinds of projects, and classes are able to view those together.
Students who don't have a specific idea but a general area they want to explore, such as bubbles or batteries, can be directed to Web sites that can offer suggestions, Tatum said.
Prizes plentiful
Prizes are plentiful for the best projects. Both the seventh and eighth grades have subject classifications such as chemistry, physics and earth science, and first-, second- and third-place awards are given in each.
All first-place winners get savings bonds. The one student who creates the project judged to be the school's best will receive a $150 savings bond.
Tatum said preparing for the science fair can bring students some stress, but "they seem to enjoy it once it's done. They're proud of their projects and ready to show them off," Tatum said.

* Required Fields
Pure Creatine Gluconate is the ionic salt of a creatine ion bonded to a glucose ion. When these two ions are put together, what you have is a form of creatine that's absorbed into the body in much of the same way glucose is - i.e. easily and almost completely. It is designed to:
- Mix well in water- Requires no loading, and- Have better uptake than plain creatine monohydrateWith Creatine Gluconate, the attached glucose ion is the delivery system. There's no need to add anything else like people often do with monohydrate. The glucose causes a perfectly timed insulin spike to help push the creatine, into the muscle cells faster making it ideal to use intra-workout for those on a bulk / trying to gain muscle mass.
Supplement Facts:Serving Size: 1 teaspoon (5g)Servings Per Container: 50, 100 and 200 servings
Ingredients Per Serving:100% Pure Creatine Gluconate
Suggested Use:On Workout Days: Take 5g's (1 teaspoon) with water immediately pre-workout, and 5g's immediately post workout. The post-workout dose can be mixed into your protein shake.
On Non-Workout Days: Take 5g's (1 teaspoon) with water upon waking.Warnings:Creatine Gluconate should be used as part of a balanced and varied diet. Do not exceed the recommended dose. Store out of reach of children. Please consult your doctor prior to use if you have a medical condition. Not recommended for pregnant or lactating women.Produced in an environment that produces Milk, Egg, Soy, Wheat, Peanuts and Nuts.
Purchased this product having switched from my previous supplement provider and really like gluconate over monohydrate, This product is great quality and great value. Can't go wrong. Really seeing results using Bodybuilding Warehouse.
Been using this for past few months along side the performance mass. Seen good gains. One scoop before in water (no funny taste) and one scoop after in a mass shake! Been helping boost while training and helping put on the weight!
This stuff is excellent! Im the kinda guy who can't be bothered with loleading phases so this works great. It doea mix well although since its only 5g I rather wash it straight down with a swig of water.
feel more pumped than usual (not a great amount though), probably more placebo though. But definitely get more out of my gym sessions and feel less fatigued. All round, good stuff.
ive had this before and get good results

The NIST team has already applied their root-based vocabulary rules to the chemical structures in PubChem, a "monstrous database" of millions of compounds and chemical substances, to the world wide protein data bank (PDB), and to specific NIST-based databases, said John Elliot, a biophysicist and another member of the team. While the scientific databases haven't reached a Facebook-like level of more than a billion users, they are actively used by many scientists in the NIST community and beyond.
Graphing Relationships
Once the preliminary vocabulary was established, the NIST team also worked to categorize the descriptions of molecules and scientific experiments in a hierarchical fashion that would allow a search to return comprehensive, yet precise results. A common problem with many search approaches is that they get too many results, said Elliot. Elliot described his team's approach as similar to the problem of locating the Doritos in a large Walmart store. "First you find the grocery market section, then the next level of hierarchy is snacks, after which you go to the chips section, and then you'll quickly know if they have Doritos or not," said Elliot. "So even if a store has a million products, you can find out if they have your product really quickly." The team said the hierarchical approach could also guide scientists who need to pick out key words to index in their research papers.
Organizing the huge amounts of data generated by science is a big challenge, the team said, but it has potentially huge payoffs.
