Great value for a wonderful historic hotel in Harvard Square
Rooms were really nice. Free wifi. Everything has been updated - I read some of the previous reviews and I believe they had to have been made before the remodel because we found everything to be clean and new. The hotel is in an amazing location
on a side street just off Harvard Square. Short walk to the Red Line T station. 30.00 for parking is steep, but you can park for free all day and night on Brattle street just behind the hotel and it's very safe. A new restaurant has recently opened in the hotel which is great. You can grab last call here and take it to your room or chill and watch the Red Sox game at the bar. We only had the breakfast buffet here so I can't judge dinner, but it was very good. Good omelets, fresh fruit. Fresh Juice. Very nice. Would absolutely stay here again. At 139/night you can not get a better deal in Boston. That is prepay rate which I would recommend - it jumped up to 300 for a last minute Saturday night extension which I did not do. Probably not the best hotel for children - no pool, the elevators are small for strollers, etc. Definitely more of an adult vibe.
Free all day and all night parking on Brattle Street right behind the hotel, so no need to pay 30/night for parking. Very safe. Short walk to hotel and worth it. Saved me 100.00.
Staying in Cambridge MA
We arrived at the hotel after a long day of travel from Europe with flight delays due to weather. We were tired, but made to feel welcomed and happy to be there. The elevators are a little small and slow, but they work. Our room was large and well
appointed. The bathroom was well equipped, yet held the character of the building. The dinning - lounge area is nice. After the freshness of food in western Europe I was a little disappointed in my salad. There is a park across the street and Harvard Square is only a short walk. The beds were the best I've enjoyed in a long time. I would stay there again.
There are many shops around Harvard Square with a variety of goods. Quality and prices vary.

Great location and service. Restaurant was wonderful. I would stay there again.
Cool Cambridge Location
This hotel is right in the Harvard University area a quick walk away from the main commercial square and easy access to the Red line so that you could stay here even if you were working in Boston as the square is filled with street acts and
interesting and strange people so I have always liked visiting the area.
The room was roomy and spacious and wonderful comfortable bed but the bathroom was very crowded and you could not open the door without hitting the toilet.
I had a small TV channel problem and the guest services guy went overboard trying to get it fixed, repeatedly calling me to give me a status on the situation.
The breakfast is overpriced and the service was pretty bad - you had to ask for everything twice even though it was not particularly busy.
Lots of choices in Harvard Square for both cheap and moderate fare that are more interesting than the hotel - also you see the students in their milieu like the Au Bon Pain where they shot many scenes from Good Will Hunting
Nice hotel, though its age shows
Staff was friendly in my few interactions with them. The hotel is a short walk from Harvard Square, which was very convenient. Small, slow elevator lead me to my room, which was clean and decent-sized. I stayed two nights, and during both of them,
the bath tub spewed (a small amount of) sewage at one point during the evening, which I had to wash away. Some of the lights, in particular the bathroom light, buzzes. The walls are quite thin, and any time someone opened the next door over, it sounded as if they were entering my room. I was surprised by the lack of free wifi at this day and age, but was able to connect to an open access point from a neighboring building.
Overall, a nice experience, but not a memorable one. I attribute the downsides (light, bath) to the age of the building.
Terrible Sign, Nice Hotel
The giant, tacky, neon sign on top of this hotel worried me, both when I saw it in the pictures while I was booking online and when I was walking down Garden St. toward the hotel to check in. My worries were unfounded, however. Despite the sign,
it really is a very nice hotel -- clean and very up-to-date, and in a wonderfully convenient location to Cambridge, Harvard, and the T red line.
Nice and Comfy
A nice hotel in a nice area - easily walking distance to several nice restaurants, bars and pizza shops. Also able to walk to the "T" or subway which easily puts you in downtown Boston within 10-15 minutes. Clean rooms and very nice staff. Only
complaint would be that there was a $29/night charge to park the car. Would certainly recommend.
Legal Seafood was a very nice place for dinner in a nice evening stroll.
Would not recommend
Short,good service v
Just an overnight stay. No ice bucket, bathroom sink fixures loose, toilet "rocked" when sat upon and the housekeeping ignored the DO NOT DISTURB sign. All these small items keep me from giving a five star rating.
Everthing pretty close.
A Most Pleasant Stay
I arrived early for a 1:00 business lunch, and I was happy to be able to check in at about 12:20.In the evening, after a long day of thinking about work, I very much enjoyed talking to the bartender, [...] (I think). His warmth and intelligence
were most welcome.
An inexpensive and splendid concert at the Longy School of Music was only half a block from the hotel.
Excellent Location; Comfortable Beds
We were visiting the school in Cambridge, and found this hotel to be in the prime location, minutes of walk to Harvard Square. On top of the excellent location, the beds and linen are top-quality, possibly the most comfortable I've ever
experienced in a hotel room. There was also a flat screen LCD TV for leisure. In addition, we were pleasantly surprised by the large size of the room. All in all, if the hotel had free internet, it would've warranted a 5 star rating.

Hey, I'm Josh!
I'm a PhD student in computer science who loves foreign languages, travel, food, and music. I lived in Munich for an exchange year once and a summer internship again later, and my German is pretty decent. I speak a little bit of several other languages as well, but none at a truly conversational level other than English, German, and perhaps Spanish. I try to travel as much as possible and have enjoyed hopping around Europe and the U.S. (but I haven't been fortunate enough to make it to Asia, South America, or Africa yet). A few of my standout, favorite cities in Europe have been Budapest, Berlin, Edinburgh, Porto, and Lisbon, and I think my favorite visits in the U.S. so far have been smaller, older Southern cities that ooze with charm: Savannah, GA; Charleston, SC; and (on the bigger side) New Orleans. Places I've lived: Jackson, GA (my tiny little hometown way south of Atlanta), Atlanta, Munich, Ithaca, NY (a quirky, liberal college town in upstate NY), and San Francisco, Seattle, and I'll be moving this Fall to New York City to start work.
I always love trying great restaurants while traveling, and I think my all-time favorite cuisine is Szechuan food. I'm a coffee snob (I roast my own beans at home these days) and a beer snob, always on the hunt for the best beer bar in a new place, though the almighty Porter Beer Bar in Atlanta remains the best I've ever found by far.
I'm pretty open-minded about music and I used to DJ at WREK Atlanta, Georgia Tech's student-run radio station. My favorite kinds of music include electronic music (especially house and chillout/lounge), funk, hip hop, soul, jazz, and metal, but I enjoy many other kinds of music as well.
I try to be a very respectful and easy-going guest, and to observe any posted house rules. I like to get to know my host a bit if they're around and willing, but I also respect a host's desire to keep to themselves if they want.

This review is from: OCZ RevoDrive 3 X2 Max IOPS PCI-E 240GB PCI-Express 2.0 x4 MLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) RVD3MIX2-FHPX4-240G
Pros: Fast!!! - I built my computer specifically to do HD 1080P Video Rendering. The Revodrive 3 X2 Max is the best money I ever spent on a single computer part... I am rendering a 38 min 1080P Video in Adobe Premier CS4 - NTSC 29.97 drop frame, Quality 5, widescreen 16x9, Single Pass, Min Bit rate 25.1 Max 30.... Completed video rendering in 19 minutes 20 seconds... Video File size Almost 6 gig completed.. With conventional hard drives it could take several hours or more to complete the same task... I had the Revodrive2x as my primary drive before and I was still rendering same video and settings 38 min video took 40 min to complete so I was happy with that but the extra 21 minutes I am saving with the 3x is amazing
Cons: If you don't do your research then it can be a real task to install as primary drive. Make Sure the motherboard can boot to PCI if you plan on running this as your C Drive... Tech Note!!! If you use the Driver CD that comes with this drive make sure you take the cd out imediatly after the driver has loaded or you will see an error that windows cant be installed.. If the CD is still in the CD Rom then you will see that error. It Such a simple thing you would think that Microsoft would put a message like REMOVE CD. but no I felt like a complete idiot when I figured out what the problem was... I hope this helps someone save an hour or 2 of problem solving...
Other Thoughts: I am Running an i7 990x - 24 gig Ram - GIGABYTE GA-X58A-UD7 Mobo - Primary Drive OCZ RevoDrive 3 X2 Max - Secondary Drive OCZ RevoDrive X2 and a bunch of SATA drivesREAD FULL REVIEW
This review is from: OCZ RevoDrive X2 PCI-E 240GB PCI-Express x4 MLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) OCZSSDPX-1RVDX0240
Pros: With my old computer I had 4 300 gig WD raptors Raid 0 and had 8 gigs ram Corsair Ram and it would take about 2 hours possibly 3 hours to render "18" minute clip in full HD 1920 - THIS ONE RENDERS JUST OVER 40 HD FRAMES IN ONE SECOND I CAN RENDER A "60" MINUTE VIDEO IN "55" MINUTES WITH THIS REVO X2
Cons: MORE SPACE FOR LOWER PROCE WOULD BE NICE IM KINDA BUMMING I PAID $675 AND NOT ITS $554 OH WELL MAYBE I GET ANOTHER ONE AT $554 TEMPTING
Other Thoughts: I spent months researching what to purchase for rendering video in Adobe Premier CS5 I broke out and built a new computer. with THE revo x2 240 AND the I7-990x and 24gig Kingston Hyperx and GIGABYTE GA-X58A-UD7 mother board I AM Loving how fast it is...LOVEIT!!!READ FULL REVIEW
This review is from: GIGABYTE GA-X58A-UD7 LGA 1366 Intel X58 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard
Pros: Great board. I spent a ton of time trying to figure out if this board would work for Boot to PCI-E and if the OCZ Revo X2 240 Gig card would work as the System Drive I gambled and it worked... I just wanted someone to save some time YES It works
If you have mobo Revision 1 Update bios to F8G
If you have Mobo Revision 2 Update Bios to FC

Qty 2 VelociRaptor 600GB SATA 6.0Gb/s in Raid 0
Qty 2 Western Digital RE4 1.5TB 7200 RPM 64MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s For Storage drives (Non Raid)
Cons: Flawless install of everything - Sure would have liked more than 2 of the SATA 6Gb/s slots really put a limit on my storage drives but there are a ton of 3Gb/s slots.
Maybe next time they will put 8 SATA 6Gb/s slots and 2 of the slower ones Oh Well everything else is Gerat.
Other Thoughts: Installing the OCZ Revo X2 240gig PCI Solid State drive in this motherboard.
1: Download the Drivers from OCZ web (32bit or 64bit what ever you need) unzip them to a USB drive or Burn to CD
2: Download most current Bios Update and install (if you already have it then continue.
3: Start Computer Set Bios to boot to CD first (Default is Hard Drive the Set to boot to hard drive 2nd) Restart
4: (Make sure no other drives are plugged in) Start computer when you see drive options screen (if oyu have a USB it will be the only thing that shows up it's ok! Click Browse then locate the OCZ drivers on USB or CD then choose a driver (I chose top one) when drivers are done installing it will show up as a drive you can install windows on
5: At this point continue windows install as you would any other drive (if you have a decent Cd or DVD rom install will take maybe 8 minutes)
Very fast I love this motherboard it's cool looking and works perfectly!!! & got to love Newegg for fast shipping

This book provides, from an international perspective, an independent analysis of major issues facing the educational evaluation and assessment framework, current policy initiatives, and possible future approaches in the Slovak Republic.
How educational resources are allocated is just as important as the amount of resources available.

Across countries and economies participating in the OECD Teaching and Learning International Survey (TALIS), a majority of teachers report receiving feedback on different aspects of their work in their schools.
October 5 marks the 20th anniversary of UNESCO's World Teachers' Day, a day devoted to "appreciating, assessing and improving educators of the world". This gives us a great opportunity to reflect again on how schools can celebrate and develop great teaching. One way to do that is through critical exchanges – building constructive feedback systems within the schools.
Through the Tohoku School Project, the students have developed their capacities for innovation, leadership, and co-operation. They learned how to get the information they need when there isn't a readymade answer in their textbook or a teacher to guide them. In other words, they learned how to learn – perhaps the most valuable lesson of all! said OECD Secretary-General.

Less than one in three teachers across countries participating in the Teaching and Learning International Survey (TALIS) 2013 believes that the teaching profession is valued by society. Nevertheless, the great majority of teachers in all surveyed countries are happy with their jobs.

This publication offers insights and advice to teachers and school leaders on how they can improve teaching and learning in their schools. It is both a guide through TALIS and a handbook for building excellence into teaching.
Most teachers enjoy their job, despite feeling unsupported and unrecognised in schools and undervalued by society at large, according to a new OECD survey.

Yeah Yeah Yeahs New Song (updated)
That was pretty cool actually.
Yeah not bad
They had to remind people that Paramore is ripping them off.
by all accounts I should be sick to death of Karen O by now, but I'm surprisingly loving this.
Digging: Disclosure - Caracal
Digging: Animal Collective - Strawberry Jam
wow this song rules
I can't believe it's been four years since their last album
Digging: CHVRCHES - Every Open Eye
ughhhhh this WOULD happen while I'm at work. I can't wait to listen to this in....3 and a half hours.
it's rly good man get ready
I want that gospel choir to be on every song on the album.
yeah yeah yeahs >>>>>>>>>>>>> paramore. easily [2]
catchy, upbeat, and sassy, just how i like my yeah yeah yeahs
Digging: Vennart - The Demon Joke
I was prepared to be pretty bored but am pretty surprised by this. Should have ended about 20 seconds before it did, but still pretty good.
why are we comparing paramore and yyys?
oh right, singers both have vaginas, forgot.
because andcas decided to
holy shit this song, I'm in love
didn't think I'd hear gang-gospel vox in a YYYs song, good shit. Good fucking shit. Way more pumped for Mosquito now.
My bad didn't see the first few comments
Yeah. Yeah, yeah.
4 years was definitely worth the mental time for this band

yeah I know andcas, I didn't bring you up
"They had to remind people that Paramore is ripping them off."
how? how is Paramore ripping them off? by being a vaguely indie/rock/pop group with a female vocalist? grow up.
^ Have you heard Paramores new music?
eww no
good point though haha
new album is gonna be so good
yeah, yeah, yeah
not bad
It rules, no surprises there. Can't wait for the album.
Not half bad. Find their singles >>>> their albums though.
Last Album was great.
Can't check this though, cuz germany won't let me.
Karen O has one of the sexiest singing voices I've ever heard. She definitely knows it to the way she uses her voice on records... DAYUM

MILWAUKEE (AP) _ Ryan Braun hit his NL-leading 37th home run, pitcher Yovani Gallardo also connected and the Milwaukee Brewers sent Pittsburgh to its 10th loss in 13 games.
Jeff Bianchi, Rickie Weeks and Carlos Gomez also connected as Milwaukee tied a season high with five home runs.
Garrett Jones, Michael McKenry and Gaby Sanchez homered for the wild card-contending Pirates, who got swept in the three-game series.
Pirates starter James McDonald (12-7) was tagged for eight runs and six hits in 2 2-3 innings. He struck out six, but was tagged for four home runs.
Milwaukee has won six in a row at home and 14 of its last 16 at Miller Park. Kameron Loe (5-4) picked up the victory in relief of Gallardo, who failed to complete the fifth inning.
John Axford closed out the game to earn his 23rd save.
MIAMI (AP) _ Jason Bay hit his fifth career grand slam in the Mets' five-run first inning and New York earned a three-game sweep over Miami.
Chris Young (4-7) allowed one run and five hits in five innings. He walked one and struck out three as the Mets won for the seventh time in eight games.
The Mets wasted little time in getting to Mark Buehrle (12-12).
DENVER (AP) _ Chris Nelson had a go-ahead, three-run homer in the seventh inning and the Colorado Rockies overcame a career-best six RBIs by Chase Headley to beat San Diego Padres.
Tyler Colvin and Ramon Hernandez also homered and Dexter Fowler had three hits and two RBIs for the Rockies.
Headley drove in at least one run with each of his four hits, including his 23rd homer of the season, a two-run shot in the first inning. Alexi Amarista had a career-best five hits for the Padres, who had a season-high 20 on the day.
Guillermo Moscoso (1-1) retired the only batter he faced to close the seventh, and Rafael Betancourt gave up three consecutive two-out hits in the ninth _ including an RBI single by Amarista _ before getting Chris Denorfia to ground out for his 27th save.

Preliminary Comparative Phytochemical Screening of Euphorbia Species
ABSTRACT Phytochemical screening tests were performed first before bulk extractions. Phytochemical screening resulted in the isolation of new and novel compounds proved to be a leading candidate to fight diseases including cancer. Aerial parts of Euphorbia prostrate, Euphorbia milii, Euphorbia hirta and Euphorbia helioscopia were used for phytochemical screening for the presence of different classes of secondary metabolites. The phytochemical screening revealed the presence of terpenoids, flavonides and tennins which are given in table (2-5). The IR spectroscopy of the crude extracts indicated the presence of OH, CH stretching saturated, C=O, C=C, NO2, C-N, Ar-O, C-O- , R-O-, C-Cl Stretching respectively

ABSTRACT: Euphorbia prostrate belongs to family Euphorbiaceae locally known as Doodhi is small annual herb. Current study was conducted to evaluate the gastro protective and antioxidant effectiveness of the aerial parts of E. prostrata in indomethacin induced ulcer in adult male albino rabbits. A total 36 mice were taken and divided into 6 equal groups. At day 0 and 14 of experiment the blood sample was collected from each animal and serum was separated from blood which was used for the determination of Total oxidant status (TOS), Total antioxidant capacity (TAC), catalase (CAT) and Malondialdehyde (MDA). At the end of the experiment, all of the rabbits were slaughtered. The gastric contents were collected to total acid output, gastric pH and gastric volume. To confirm the data results was subjected to one way analysis of variance (ANOVA). Results when compared with the extensive mucosal damage in the indomethacin trated group, gross evaluation revealed a marked protection of the gastric mucosa in the experimental groups, with significantly reduction in gastric pH, gastric volume and acid output. In these groups, CAT and TAC levels were significantly increased (P < 0.05) and while MDA and TOS significantly reduced (P < 0.05) which indicate reduction in gastric damage. In conclusion to these results E. prostrata has potent antioxidant properties at dose rate of 240 mg/kg and it is also very effective for the treatment of gastric ulcer at the same dose.International Research Journal of Pharmacy 11/2014; 2014(511):846-850.

Belly Up to The Sharkadelics at The Dugout in Anderson
Who: The Sharkadelics
When: 9 p.m. Friday
Where: The Dugout, 4016 Clemson Blvd., Anderson
Information: 864.261.3663
Cost: free
The Sharkadelics just might be getting its feet wet in the upstate South Carolina market, but this band has years of experience under its belt. Guitarist Alton Eddins and drummer Ryan Ammons formed the group 13 years ago after Eddins sought to limit extensive travel with bands that toured nationally.
After a few years and a lineup change, the band gained bass player Mick Hayes, who spent six years playing with David Allen Coe. The band's most recent addition, singer Josie Breeze, joined a year ago to fill the void left by singer Terry Cole. This Friday will be the Sharkadelics second appearance at the Dugout, and Eddins hopes it's the first of many at that venue and others around the upstate.
"Our band does well because we are willing to play within whatever genre is working for the crowd," Eddins said. "If the crowd is digging country or rock, we'll play two or three more before transitioning to another style."
The style that Eddins prefers is undoubtedly funk and rock, as he pinpoints his turning point in music to the first time he saw the Monkees live. The date happened to be one of the seven concerts in the infamous Jimi Hendrix/Monkees tour. Eddins said he saw Hendrix awkwardly open for the band in front of a crowd that hated him and "things changed from there."
After touring nationally in bands like Maxx Warrior during the '80s, Eddins settled down to raise a family in Asheville, N.C., and formed the Sharkadelics. Eddins said the band gained a strong fan base in its native Asheville by performing high energy covers from bands ranging from AC/DC to Prince. Def Leppard's "Pour Some Sugar on Me" and Kid Rock's "Bawitdaba" are par for the course, but thanks to the recent addition of Breeze, the band can easily cover female vocalists while getting a fresh take on songs traditionally associated with male singers.
"Hiring Josie had nothing to do with gender," Eddins said. "It was all about getting the best person for the job and that is one singer with serious stage presence."
The band also has gained notoriety in its native state for being one of only a few sponsored by Jägermeister. Eddins said the band sought out sponsorship from Jägermeister because of the lack of sponsored bands in the area and has enjoyed the push that such a sponsorship brings since it officially started working with the company in 2006. It also doesn't hurt that the band enjoys its sponsor's product.
"Every member of the band was pretty familiar with (Jägermeister)," Eddins said, laughing. "It's definitely our favorite."
The Sharkadelics will perform at 9 p.m. Friday at the Dugout. The Dugout is located at 4016 Clemson Blvd. in Anderson.

The genome of Aeromonas salmonicida subsp. salmonicida A449: insights into the evolution of a fish pathogen

BMC Genomics 2008, 9:427 doi:10.1186/1471-2164-9-427Published: 18 September 2008
Aeromonas salmonicida subsp. salmonicida is a Gram-negative bacterium that is the causative agent of furunculosis, a bacterial septicaemia of salmonid fish. While other species of Aeromonas are opportunistic pathogens or are found in commensal or symbiotic relationships with animal hosts, A. salmonicida subsp. salmonicida causes disease in healthy fish. The genome sequence of A. salmonicida was determined to provide a better understanding of the virulence factors used by this pathogen to infect fish.
The nucleotide sequences of the A. salmonicida subsp. salmonicida A449 chromosome and two large plasmids are characterized. The chromosome is 4,702,402 bp and encodes 4388 genes, while the two large plasmids are 166,749 and 155,098 bp with 178 and 164 genes, respectively. Notable features are a large inversion in the chromosome and, in one of the large plasmids, the presence of a Tn21 composite transposon containing mercury resistance genes and an In2 integron encoding genes for resistance to streptomycin/spectinomycin, quaternary ammonia compounds, sulphonamides and chloramphenicol. A large number of genes encoding potential virulence factors were identified; however, many appear to be pseudogenes since they contain insertion sequences, frameshifts or in-frame stop codons. A total of 170 pseudogenes and 88 insertion sequences (of ten different types) are found in the A. salmonicida genome. Comparison with the A. hydrophila ATCC 7966T genome reveals multiple large inversions in the chromosome as well as an approximately 9% difference in gene content indicating instances of single gene or operon loss or gain.
A limited number of the pseudogenes found in A. salmonicida A449 were investigated in other Aeromonas strains and species. While nearly all the pseudogenes tested are present in A. salmonicida subsp. salmonicida strains, only about 25% were found in other A. salmonicida subspecies and none were detected in other Aeromonas species.
Relative to the A. hydrophila ATCC 7966T genome, the A. salmonicida subsp. salmonicida genome has acquired multiple mobile genetic elements, undergone substantial rearrangement and developed a significant number of pseudogenes. These changes appear to be a consequence of adaptation to a specific host, salmonid fish, and provide insights into the mechanisms used by the bacterium for infection and avoidance of host defence systems.

From search to distributed computing to large-scale information extraction
The O'Reilly Data Show Podcast: Mike Cafarella on the early days of Hadoop/HBase and progress in structured data extraction.
Subscribe to the O'Reilly Data Show Podcast to explore the opportunities and techniques driving big data and data science.
February 2016 marks the 10th anniversary of Hadoop — at a point in time when many IT organizations actively use Hadoop, and/or one of the open source, big data projects that originated after, and in some cases, depend on it.
During the latest episode of the O'Reilly Data Show Podcast, I had an extended conversation with Mike Cafarella, assistant professor of computer science at the University of Michigan. Along with Strata + Hadoop World program chair Doug Cutting, Cafarella is the co-founder of both Hadoop and Nutch. In addition, Cafarella was the first contributor to HBase.
We talked about the origins of Nutch, Hadoop (HDFS, MapReduce), HBase, and his decision to pursue an academic career and step away from these projects. Cafarella's pioneering contributions to open source search and distributed systems fits neatly with his work in information extraction. We discussed a new startup he recently co-founded, ClearCutAnalytics, to commercialize a highly regarded academic project for structured data extraction (full disclosure: I'm an advisor to ClearCutAnalytics). As I noted in a previous post, information extraction (from a variety of data types and sources) is an exciting area that will lead to the discovery of new features (i.e., variables) that may end up improving many existing machine learning systems.

Hadoop for business: Analytics across industries
The O'Reilly Podcast: Ben Sharma on the business impact of Hadoop and the evolution of tools
In this episode of the O'Reilly Podcast, O'Reilly's Ben Lorica chats with Ben Sharma, CEO and co-founder of Zaloni, a company that provides enterprise data management solutions for Hadoop. Sharma was one of the first users of Apache Hadoop, and has a background in enterprise solutions architecture and data analytics.
Before starting Zaloni, Sharma spent many years as a business consultant and began to see that companies across industries were struggling to process, store, and extract value from their data. Having worked extensively in telecom, Sharma helped equipment vendors deploy large-scale network infrastructures at carriers across the world. He began to see how Hadoop could have an impact in the business analytics aspect of companies, not just in IT.
In this interview, Lorica and Sharma discuss the early days of Hadoop and how businesses across industries are benefitting from Hadoop. They also discuss the evolution of tools in the space and how more companies are moving toward real-time decision-making with the growth of streaming tools and real-time data. Read more…
How an enterprise begins its big data journey
An ETL offload solution addresses the challenges of data overload, rising costs, and the skills gap.
As the amount of data continues to double in size every two years, organizations are struggling more than ever before to manage, ingest, store, process, transform, and analyze massive data sets. It has become clear that getting started on the road to using data successfully can be a difficult task, especially with a growing number of new data sources, demands for fresher data, and the need for increased processing capacity. In order to advance operational efficiencies and drive business growth, however, organizations must address and overcome these challenges.
In recent years, many organizations have heavily invested in the development of enterprise data warehouses (EDW) to serve as the central data system for reporting, extract/transform/load (ETL) processes, and ways to take in data (data ingestion) from diverse databases and other sources both inside and outside the enterprise. Yet, as the volume, velocity, and variety of data continues to increase, already expensive and cumbersome EDWs are becoming overloaded with data. Furthermore, traditional ETL tools are unable to handle all the data being generated, creating bottlenecks in the EDW that result in major processing burdens.
As a result of this overload, organizations are now turning to open source tools like Hadoop as cost-effective solutions to offloading data warehouse processing functions from the EDW. While Hadoop can help organizations lower costs and increase efficiency by being used as a complement to data warehouse activities, most businesses still lack the skill sets required to deploy Hadoop.

Navigating the Hadoop ecosystem
A field guide to the Apache Hadoop projects, subprojects, and related technologies.
Marshall Presser, co-author of Field Guide to Hadoop, contributed to this post.
IT managers, developers, data analysts, and system architects are encountering the largest and most disruptive change in data analysis since the ascendency of the relational database in early 1980s — the challenge to process, organize, and take full advantage of big data. With 73% of organizations making big data investments in 2014 and 2015, this transition is occurring at a historic pace, requiring new ways of thinking to go along with new tools and techniques.
Hadoop is the cornerstone of this change to a landscape of systems and skills we've traditionally possessed. In the nine short years since the project revolutionized data science at Yahoo!, an entire ecosystem of technologies has sprung up around it. While the power of this ecosystem is plain to see, it can be a challenge to navigate your way through the complex and rapidly evolving collection of projects and products.
A couple years ago, my coworker Marshall Presser and I started our journey into the world of Hadoop. Like many folks, we found the company we worked for was making a major investment in the Hadoop ecosystem, and we had to find a way to adapt. We started in all of the typical places — blog posts, trade publications, Wikipedia articles, and project documentation. Quickly, we learned that many of these sources are often highly biased, either too shallow or too deep, and just plain inconsistent. Read more…

A tale of two clusters: Mesos and YARN
With Myriad, analytics can be performed on the same hardware that runs your production services.
This is a tale of two siloed clusters. The first cluster is an Apache Hadoop cluster. This is an island whose resources are completely isolated to Hadoop and its processes. The second cluster is the description I give to all resources that are not a part of the Hadoop cluster. I break them up this way because Hadoop manages its own resources with Apache YARN (Yet Another Resource Negotiator). Which is nice for Hadoop, but all too often those resources are underutilized when there are no big data workloads in the queue. And then when a big data job comes in, those resources are stretched to the limit, and they are likely in need of more resources. That can be tough when you are on an island.
Hadoop was meant to tear down walls — albeit, data silo walls — but walls, nonetheless. What has happened is that while tearing some walls down, other types of walls have gone up in their place.
Another technology, Apache Mesos, is also meant to tear down walls — but Mesos has often been positioned to manage the "second cluster," which are all of those other, non-Hadoop workloads.
This is where the story really starts, with these two silos of Mesos and YARN. They are often pitted against each other, as if they were incompatible. It turns out they work together, and therein lies my tale. Read more…
A million rows isn't cool. You know what's cool? A billion rows.
Changing your frame of reference when starting with SQL on Hadoop.
Editor's note: John Russell will be one of the teachers of the tutorial Getting Started with Interactive SQL-On-Hadoop at Strata + Hadoop World in San Jose. Visit the Strata + Hadoop World website for more information on the program.
If you're just getting started doing analytic work with SQL on Hadoop, a table with a million rows might seem like a good starting point for experimentation. Isn't that a lot of data? While you can exercise the features of a traditional database with a million rows, for Hadoop it's not nearly enough. Think billions of rows instead.
Let's look at the ways a million-row table falls short. Understanding the data volumes involved with big data can help you avoid going down unproductive pathways based on misleading assumptions.
With a million-row table, every byte in each row represents a megabyte of total data volume. Let's say your table represents people and has fields for name, address, occupation, salary, height, weight, number of children, and favorite food. Here's what a sample field might look like, with a scale underneath to illustrate length:
This particular record takes up 78 characters, including the comma separators. A back-of-the-envelope calculation suggests that, if this is an average row, we'll end up with about 78 megabytes of data in the table.

- Apache Flink — a data processing system and an alternative to Hadoop's MapReduce component. It comes with its own runtime, rather than building on top of MapReduce. As such, it can work completely independently of the Hadoop ecosystem. However, Flink can also access Hadoop's distributed file system (HDFS) to read and write data, and Hadoop's next-generation resource manager (YARN) to provision cluster resources. Since most Flink users are using Hadoop HDFS to store their data, we ship already the required libraries to access HDFS.
The data lake model is a powerhouse for invention
In this O'Reilly Radar Podcast: Edd Dumbill on the data lake, and Rajiv Maheswaran on the science of moving dots.
In a recent blog post, Edd Dumbill, VP of strategy at Silicon Valley Data Science, wrote about the phrase "data lake." Likening it to a dream, he described a data lake as "a place with data-centered architecture, where silos are minimized, and processing happens with little friction in a scalable, distributed environment…Data itself is no longer restrained by initial schema decisions, and can be exploited more freely by the enterprise." He explained that he called it a "dream" because "we've a way to go to make the vision come true" — but noted he's optimistic the dream can be realized.

I love this! It honestly has been the best thing for my hair. My hair is naturally straight & hardly ever holds curls, but with this curling wand my curls last all day. I bought the wand in both sizes and the smaller one gives nice, tight curls; while the bigger one gives loose, kind of like beachy waves. For the price, I would say its a great buy.

I did 3 dermarolling treatments but i dont think this will give me any improvement and i am considering excision. I think i am good healer judging on my cut scar on leg (fine white line). But dermarolling part is concerning me. It is supposed to promote collagen growth and hypertrophic scars are caused by over producing collagen, so will those scars when get excised produce ugly hypertrophic scar? How much should i wait after doing dermaroling, and doing excision?

I have tried pressure canning chicken 4 times now. I've done 2 batches cooked chicken and 2 batches raw chicken. All 4 times most of the water cooked out of the jars. Is this supposed to happen and is the chicken safe for us to eat?
Rate This FAQ
Average Rating:
Providing that the lid has sealed and you processed the chicken properly, it will be safe despite the loss of liquid. There are several possible reasons the liquid boiled off:
1. The jar is packed too full - incorrect headspace.
2. Starchy foods may absorb some liquid.
4. The liquid you added to cover cold, raw food was not hot enough when you put it in the canner.
5. You did not remove air bubbles when you packed the food.
6. The pressure canner was not sufficiently or properly exhausted (Pressure fluctuated, or temperature lowered suddenly during processing, due to uncontrolled heat source. If the pressure canner cools too quickly while the contents of the jar remain at a much higher temperature, the liquid will boil over. The "coming down" period has to be gradual and even. The petcock was opened before the pressure had returned to zero).
7. The gauge is inaccurate. Have it tested at your local Cooperative Extension Office.

- I have a question about my pressure canned sliced peaches. I cold-packed sliced peaches covering them with a light syrup. Following instructions I packed them with 1/2 inch headspace and poured the liquid to 1/2 inch headspace. However, the peaches floated up so that they were not covered by the liquid during processing. I did run a wooden spatula down the sides of the jars and seemed to get all air bubbles out of the jar. I processed in the pressure canner according to instructions at 10 PSI for 10 minutes. When I removed the jars the liquid was boiling and there seemed to be a lot of air bubbles around the fruit. The jars were already sealed when I took them out of the canner after waiting 10 minutes after the pressure seal dropped. The liquid is down considerably - looks to be about 1 1/2 to 2 inches and the peaches are floating. There are air bubbles and air pockets. The seal is fine. Are these peaches safe?

Dentist shortage bites California as more choose to practice out of state
Category: ,
A lingering recession, the elimination of Medicaid dental reimbursements and a glut of established dentists in wealthier, populated areas may explain why more new dentists are practicing outside California, according to a new policy brief from the UCLA Center for Health Policy Research.
"Good access to dental care depends on having a robust supply of new dentists in California," said Nadereh Pourat, director of research at the center and lead author of the study. "We need a new generation of dentists to replace the many dentists who are close to retirement."
Grass looks greener across state line
While California still saw an increase in the number of dentists and had more licensed dentists —35,000 plus — than any other state in 2012, the number of those licensed to practice in California who opted to reside or work out of state grew 6 percent between 2008 and 2012.
The migration is especially noticeable among new dentists. In 2012, 86 percent of those licensed within the previous five years practiced in the state — a 10 percent drop from 2008. In addition, new dentists in 2012 made up a smaller share of the state's overall supply. Of all regions, the San Joaquin Valley tallied the highest percentage of new dentists, who made up 15 percent of the local supply.
A noteworthy development: Analysis showed one group — women — made up almost half of all newly licensed dentists in California in 2012.
Older dentists nearing retirement, newer dentists more specialized
Age may also start affecting supply. Nearly one-quarter of actively licensed dentists in California have been practicing for 30 years or more and are close to retirement age. Northern and Sierra counties had the highest proportion of dentists nearing retirement, at 40 percent.
The report also suggests that it may become tougher for adults to get basic oral care than gum surgery, as more new dentists are specializing.
Overall, 13 percent of newly licensed and actively practicing dentists in the state identified themselves as specialists in 2012, a 6 percent bump since 2008.
Uneven supply
Patients in the San Joaquin Valley may have the highest share of newly licensed dentists in their area, but they still have the lowest ratio of dentists to patients in the state, with 2.4 dentists for every 5,000 people. In contrast, Greater Bay Area residents have the highest dentist-to-patient ratio — 5.1 per 5,000, beating the state average of 3.9.
"There is a lopsided distribution of dentists," Pourat said. "They cluster in areas like San Francisco and Southern California, but don't settle in rural and underserved areas. Many areas of the state don't have enough dentists."
The report says that although economic conditions in the state are likely to improve, it is critical to motivate new dentists to practice in underserved areas such as the San Joaquin Valley and the Northern and Sierra counties.
Options such as assistance with dental school loan repayment, small business loans, and higher Medicaid reimbursement rates to provide incentives should be further developed for better effectiveness, the authors note.
Read the report: "Trends in the Supply of Dentists in California."
The UCLA Center for Health Policy Research is one of the nation's leading health policy research centers and the premier source of health-related information on Californians. The center is affiliated with the UCLA Fielding School of Public Health.

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP)—Standing eight yards deep in the end zone with the ball, Devin Hester couldn't believe his eyes—the New York Giants were actually walking off the field.
He had just gathered in Jay Feely's field-goal attempt in the fourth quarter, a kick that fell short. But the Chicago Bears' return specialist wasn't going to go sprinting off just yet.
He gave the Giants a few extra seconds to vacate.
And with that, Hester was off to the races, giving the Chicago Bears the inside track on NFC title with a record-tying 108-yard romp that was the knockout blow in a 38-20 victory over the injury-ravaged Giants in their NFC showdown Sunday night.
"I probably would have downed it if I saw defenders coming at me," said Hester, who returned punts of 84 and 83 yards for TDs earlier this season. "It seemed like all of them were walking off the field like it was over. So I decided to take it out. It surprised me."
The record-tying return gave Chicago (8-1) a 31-20 lead.
On Nov. 13, 2005—almost exactly a year ago—the Bears' Nathan Vasher caught Joe Nedney's missed 52-yard field-goal attempt in the back of the end zone on the final play of the first half and ran it back for a 108-yard TD return. The play helped Chicago beat San Francisco 17-9, and now Hester shares the record for longest NFL play with his teammate.
Rex Grossman threw for three touchdowns and Thomas Jones scored on a short run as the Bears rallied from a 10-point first-half deficit in ending a five-game winning streak by the Giants (6-3).
Not only did the Bears win, they answered the critics who surfaced last week after Miami handed Chicago its first loss in a turnover-marred game.
"There is so much football left to go, but we still like being undefeated in the NFC right now," Bears coach Lovie Smith said. "We like being undefeated on the road. We like the position."
Grossman had touchdown passes of 29 yards to Mark Bradley, 10 yards to Muhsin Muhammad and 2 yards to Desmond Clark in leading the Bears to a 24-13 lead in the third quarter.
The Giants cut the gap on Brandon Jacobs' second touchdown run of the game late in the period. But the game was blown open on Hester's third return for a touchdown this season—a most unexpected one.
Giants coach Tom Coughlin took responsibility for the decision to kick the field goal, which would have cut the Bears' lead to a point.
"It's very difficult to cover a field goal," Coughlin said. "The people who do it are not the kind of people who normally do it for you."
Giants linebacker Antonio Pierce agreed that it's tough for a field-goal block team to stop a great returner like Hester.
"It's hard when you have a speed guy alone and you have offensive linemen, they don't have a chance to catch him," Pierce said.
The teams brought two of the top defenses into the nationally television matchup that was moved to prime time by the NFL as part of NBC's flexible scheduling package for Sunday night games.
New York's 13-10 halftime lead was courtesy of its defense and special teams, with three scoring drives covering a total of 13 yards in winds gusting to 25 mph and intermittent showers.
Mathias Kiwanuka set up the Giants' touchdown with an interception on Chicago's first possession, returning it 32 yards to the Bears 1. Jacobs scored almost untouched.
The Bears' defense answered the next time New York had the ball. Charles Tillman, one of the cornerbacks called "average" by Giants receiver Plaxico Burress earlier in the week, intercepted a pass intended for Burress and returned it 11 yards to New York's 45.
A questionable roughing-the-passer penalty against Fred Robbins moved the ball to the 30 and Robbie Gould kicked a 49-yard field goal.
Giants safety Gibril Wilson forced a fumble by Jones at the Bears 31 on the penultimate play of the hour-long first quarter. Feely extended New York's lead to 10-3 with a 46-yard field goal.
The Bears changed the momentum with one drive—and really one play, a draw to Jones on third-and-22 with 1:30 left in the half. He went 26 yards for a first down and woke up the offense; after a 22-yard pass to Muhammad, Grossman capped the drive by finding Bradley on a touchdown pass when cornerback Sam Madison aggravated a hamstring injury on a stop-and-go pattern.
The score got the Bears within 13-10 at the half, and they played like a different team offensively the rest of the way.
Grossman, who struggled for almost the entire first half, finished 18-of-30 for 246 yards. Muhammad had seven catches for 123.
Eli Manning struggled against Brian Urlacher and the Bears' vaunted defense. He threw two interceptions and lost a fumble, finishing 14-of-32 for 121 yards.
Tiki Barber, who sprained a thumb, led New York with 141 yards on 19 carries. The Giants came into the game missing five starters and they lost two more: Madison and offensive tackle Luke Petitgout, who broke his left leg.
William Joseph made the move from tackle in replacing Strahan in the Giants starting lineup. …Barber had three catches and now has 563 in his career, replacing the injured Amani Toomer (561) as the Giants all-time leading receiver. …Gould is 23-for-23 on field goals this season and has made his last 25 in a row.
