On February 21, 2012, the City of Boston kicked off the Fairmount Indigo Planning Initiative, a multi-year Boston Redevelopment Authority (BRA) study to develop short and long term strategies for improving capital investment and job access along the 9.2 mile MBTA Fairmount Indigo commuter rail line, which links South Station to Readville, crossing through Roxbury, Dorchester, Mattapan, and Hyde Park.
The BRA issued a call for nominations for the Blue Hill Ave/Cummins Hwy Working Advisory Group (WAG) in April 2013. The authority received 32 nominations from stakeholders, including Fairmount corridor non profits, business groups, and elected officials. Mayor Menino selected the 13-member selection based on its representative sample of the Blue Hill Ave/Cummins Hwy station area.
The 13-member group is a volunteer entity charged with assisting the BRA's planning team in developing a short and long term strategy for public realm improvements, business growth, employment opportunities, capital investement and public and private property development guidelines in Mattapan. The Blue Hill Ave/Cummins Hwy WAG is the second of four Advisory Group's to work with the BRA and Consultant Team for specific Station Area Improvement Plans.
Blue Hill Ave/Cummins Hwy WAG members include:
As part of the City of Boston's Fairmount Indigo Planning Initiative, the Blue Hill Avenue/ Cummins Highway Station Area Plan establishes a framework for future improvements and investment to complement the transit infrastructure at a new MBTA station and to enhance both the commercial center of Mattapan Square and the surrounding neighborhoods. The Station Area Plan seeks to leverage transit for new economic prosperity and to reinforce the Station Area as an important hub of commercial and cultural activity in the Fairmount Indigo Corridor.

2-point decision leads to Buena's 1st win
QB sneak ties game, pass seals victory for Buena
With his team trailing by seven points and the ball on the Pacifica 1-yard line with 13 seconds left in the game, Buena High quarterback Kendrick Mathis heard his coaches yelling for him to spike the ball to stop the clock.
But as he stepped to the line of scrimmage, Mathis noticed the middle linebacker was off the line of scrimmage, so instead of a spike, Mathis tucked the ball under his arm, put his head down and fought his way into the end zone.
As the Buena coaches tried to decide whether to kick the extra point and go to overtime or go for the win, Mathis stepped up again.
"He told me we were going for it," Buena coach Cliff Farrar said of his senior signal-caller.
Farrar agreed to let his team go for the win and Mathis came up big again, firing a perfect strike to running back Chris Beeson in the corner of the end zone, giving the Bulldogs (1-4) their first win of the season, 43-42.
After having to sit out the first quarter because he missed practice earlier in the week, Mathis entered the game at the start of the second quarter, providing both an offensive spark and leadership.
He finished with 88 yards rushing and 188 yards passing, including going a perfect 4 for 4 on the final drive.
"We needed this win," said Mathis. "We've been missing that vibe in practice because we haven't been able to win, so I think getting this one is going to help us a lot. I think it's going to get us going and give us that vibe back."
As he was shaking Pacifica coach Donnie Rea's hand after the game, Farrar playfully thanked Rea and his players for taking part in the Buena track meet.
Farrar's joke wasn't far off, as both offenses took center stage during a contest that featured only three punts and seven lead changes.
The offensive fireworks got started quickly, as Pacifica quarterback Nick Davis connected with wide receiver Devonte Willis for a 77-yard touchdown pass on the third play of the game.
Davis turned in an outstanding performance in the loss. The senior passed for 337 yards and four touchdowns and also ran for another 77 yards.
"Nick continues to play better and better," Rea said. "He's got a real good idea of what to do with our offense and his reads. He and Dennis (Taylor) mesh so well at the point of attack that they make it very difficult for opposing defenses.
"Tonight their tackles were making a point of tackling Dennis, so that left Nick with some room to run and he did a nice job."
Buena took its opening possession and marched down the field for its first touchdown of the night as Andrew Martinez scored on a 17-yard run. Martinez was another of the offensive stars, rushing for 139 yards and two touchdowns.
The Bulldogs missed the extra point, leaving them behind by a point, but a safety a few minutes later gave them the lead.
The Bulldogs took the ball back and marched down the field, but when the drive stalled, kicker Brad Montgomery booted a 25-yard field goal to increase the Buena lead.
But just before the end of the first quarter, Davis struck again, hitting Michael Maldonado with a 40-yard touchdown pass that gave Pacifica (2-2) the lead at 14-11 after one quarter.
A Montgomery field goal of 41 yards early in the second quarter tied the game at 14-14, and from that point on, no lead was safe.
"These are two teams that are very similar," Rea said. "Both offenses are able to move the ball and score points, but we're both struggling to stop our opponents."
Early in the final quarter, Pacifica took a 42-35 lead on Davis' fourth touchdown pass, a 55-yard strike to Derien Fallejo.
With 6:42 left in the game, Buena attempted a 30-yard field goal that would have cut Pacifica's lead to four points. But the kick sailed wide. Pacifica's offense then marched down the field, taking time off the clock.
With just under two minutes left, and facing a fourth down deep in Buena territory, the Tritons attempted a 34-yard field goal that would have clinched the victory. But the kick was blocked, setting the stage for Mathis' heroics.
"Sitting out the first quarter, I felt like crying, I wanted to be in there so much," Mathis said. "I'm just glad I was able to get in the game and help my team pull a victory out. It's a great win for us."

CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) - Gene Haas wants double the profits of CNC machine manufacturer Haas Automation to $2 billion a year - a goal he believes he can only accomplish by tapping into the global market.
And how does he do that? By starting a Formula One team, of course.
Haas insisted Monday he is serious about fielding an F1 team based in North Carolina, on the same land in Kannapolis that houses the Stewart-Haas Racing NASCAR team he co-owns with Tony Stewart.
"We want to be an American team. We think that has the most sizzle to it," he said.
Haas, through Haas Racing Development, paid a $5,000 application fee to F1's governing body during an open application period for new teams interested in racing in either the 2015 or 2016 season. He said he has received some frank advice from F1 boss Bernie Ecclestone about this venture.
"Mr. Ecclestone doesn't think I have enough money to do this. He doesn't think we will get the license. So my chances probably aren't that great of a shot," Haas said.
Haas didn't blink when asked Monday if he'd be willing to help fund Kurt Busch's potential Indianapolis 500 entry - "He hasn't asked me," he said - and is already paying anywhere between $12 million and $20 million out of pocket for Haas CNC to sponsor Busch's new fourth entry at SHR - an endeavor that required significant capital improvement at SHR headquarters.
So does he have enough money for an F1 team?
"I won't know until I try. If you don't try, you'll never fail," he said. "The Europeans have their way of doing things, and we as Americans have our way of doing things. I think we could be competitive and successful."
He admitted Ecclestone's warning was likely his way of "being as brutally honest with us as he can" but Haas is driven by the challenge of being America's first F1 entrant since Penske Racing competed from England from 1974-78.
The last U.S.-based team was Parnelli Jones Racing in 1974-76, when Mario Andretti drove.
The FIA granted entry to an American team in 2009 - the USF1 team - but it failed to hit the grid in 2010 and Haas said that botched effort could hurt his process. His next application is due Feb. 10.
He's got the support of Stewart, but his partner in the NASCAR team would not be part of an F1 venture.
"That's Gene's project, but it's pretty exciting," Stewart said. "Gene is the kind of person who when he puts his mind to it, he has the ability to stay focused. He's done that with the Cup side, he's done that with Haas Automation, and it's going to be exciting watching him try to do that in Formula One."

South African wine producers create new association
Premium wine producers of South Africa have created a new association called Cape Vintners Classification (CVC) at Ellerman House in Cape Town to promote the area wines globally.
CVC, which will begin the accreditation process for membership starting 2 January 2014, will also work towards building the country's reputation as quality wine producer.
The new association will have three tiers of classification namely Site Specific Wines, Estate Wines and Wine of Origin.
To become a member of CVC, wine producers should have a minimum 20ha of vineyards, a winemaking facility with a capacity of 100t, apart from cellar door facilities.
CVC founding member Johann Rupert said, "We produce many world-class wines and it's time that our top producers begin telling their story more forcefully and the CVC is the ideal vehicle to do this."

Do you need a rangefinder on the camera, or would a scale focusing camera do?
If a scale focusing camera will do then consider a Rollei 35. They don't need a battery (if you decide you don't need the built in exposure meter) and if you get one with a Tessar, Xenar, or Sonnar lens then the lenses are very good. Of these, the Sonnar is considered best. The ones with the triplet lens (Triotar if I remember correctly) are not as good.
I have a Rollei 35TE that used to belong to my father in law and it is one of my favorite cameras.
By the way, if you are interested in a scale focusing camera and you want some kind of focusing aid, it is possible to build an external uncoupled rangefinder with just a pen and paper. I have an upscale version I made using a pen and an old plastic hotel key card. It gives surprisingly accurate results.

A crannog is a type of stronghold that was built by some of the early peoples of Ireland and Scotland. An artificially constructed site for a house or settlement, a crannog was usually built on an islet or in the shallows of a lake. Crannogs were made of timber or sometimes stone, and they were usually fortified by single or double stockaded defenses.

Free Market Principles Must Be Basis of Iraqi Recovery
L. Paul Bremer, III, Hampton Roads International Security Quarterly
Baghdad -- Much has been written since the war about the political liberation of Iraq, one of the remarkable events in the history of human freedom. Never before in warfare have so many been freed with so few casualties, in so short a period of time, with so little damage done to the country and its people. The removal of Saddam Hussein also offers Iraqis hope for a better economic future. For a free Iraq to thrive, its economy must be transformed.
Tomorrow, I will lead a delegation of Iraqi business and financial leaders to a special meeting of the World Economic Forum in Amman, Jordan, where we will discuss the economic aspects of the Coalition's overall strategy. Iraq faces unique problems, but we have the experience of formerly socialist countries, as well as analysis of successful capitalist ones, to inform our perspective. While the ultimate future of Iraq's economy will be determined by the Iraqis themselves, economic growth will depend on the birth of a vibrant private sector. And this will require the wholesale reallocation of resources and people from state control to private enterprise, the promotion of foreign trade, and the mobilization of domestic and foreign capital.
In the near term, any economic plan for Iraq must address the consequences of the conflict that liberated it. The first prerequisite to growth is the establishment of law and order. Looters and saboteurs have destroyed offices, stores, factories, and government buildings. Deliberate attacks on oil facilities and electricity lines continue to undermine our efforts and hurt the Iraqi people. Fortunately, we have made the streets of Baghdad safer, and Coalition forces are working to root out the last remaining vestiges of the former regime.
The formation of a political system reflecting the goals and viewpoints of all Iraqis is the second prerequisite. Here too, the Coalition has made progress. With the crucial assistance of a number of forward-looking Iraqi citizens, we are on track to realize the president's vision of a free Iraq led by a democratically elected, representative government.
Against that backdrop, my primary focus now is working with Iraqis to put their country on the right economic path. The immediate situation is daunting, but it could have been much worse. Humanitarian crisis was avoided. Early operations by Coalition forces protected Iraq's oil infrastructure, and production has already resumed. Iraq should export more than $5 billion worth of oil in the second half of this year.
Still much work remains. To address the population's immediate liquidity needs, we have placed more than $400 million of purchasing power in the hands of the Iraqi people through the rapid payment of public-sector salaries, pensions, and emergency payments. Baghdad's streets are now alive with traders and merchants selling goods that were unobtainable only a few months ago. The Coalition has committed billions of dollars to further spur economic growth by funding infrastructure and development projects around the country.
But simply rebuilding government buildings or repairing damaged pipelines will not bring about sustainable growth. That growth will require a transformation from three decades of economic mismanagement and neglect and a Stalinist industrial structure. Most production in Iraq was undertaken not by private firms seeking to meet the demands of the market, but by state-owned enterprises overseen by government officials, with Saddam himself at the top. …

Topic Title: IT Legislation Guide - regulations and laws affecting IT

It is probably no exaggeration to say that IT operations are now the single most-regulated part of any organisation (which is kind of ironical considering that IT professionals are not necessarily required to be licenced or certified in order to practice). The IET's E&T magazine has just published an IT Legislation Guide that outlines the laws and regulatory compliances that apply to the IT function in the UK and much of Europe. The IT Legislation Guide references also skills- and policy-oriented industry frameworks and initiatives that, although not necessarily mandated by law, look likely to inspire future legal requirements with respect to specific aspects of the practice and operation of IT.
The Guide is available as a downloadable PDF.
I'd be interested to hear any views/opinions regarding the issue of the escalating regulatory compliances that IT practices is now subject to.

The Gallic or Celtic tribes of the Po Valley were the first inhabitants of today's Lombardia to have left a long lasting mark in such places as Bergamo, Como and Milan or Mediolanum.
Gorgonzola Cheese
If you ask anyone to name an Italian cheese, gorgonzola might come a solid third after parmigiano reggiano and mozzarella. The cheese's origins are arguably Piemontese. Even today the zone of production includes such areas as Novara, Vercelli and Cuneo. All are entitled to label their produce with the official mark of quality. Legend states that in the 12th century a herdsman was travelling to summer pastures in Valsassina when he left a version of gorgonzola in the town. The cheese was appropriated by the local population and the rest, as they say, is history.
Musical Itineraries in Milan
This is a route celebrating Milan's place as perhaps Italy's first city of music. In fact, the city has an ancient tradition of Ambrosian rites and chants since the 4th century. It's not just about the Teatro alla Scala but thirteen additional locations from concert halls to museums, coffee houses and shops.
Best Risotto alla Milanese
To understand Milan's premier gastronomic dish, you must understand the city and wider territory. The local food traditions have always been closely linked to the River Po valley and the wide flat plain which produces abundant meat and dairy products.
Butter always dominated in cooking especially for frying and to also make fillings and desserts. The ever present pot of broth boiling on the stove gave rise to the popualrity of dishes requiring many hours of preparation such as stews and soups. This also created a whole culture of using every part of an animal; tripe, braised veal shanks (ossobucco), liver etc
Veal was consumed here more than anywhere else in Italy. Prices were lower thanks to the large number of farmers producing high quality meat and the supply chain was very short. The midollo or bone marrow is essential an ingredient in authentic risotto alla milanese.
Another fundamental element is the zone of Lomellina, home to Italy's best rice. Dried pasta and olive oil based dishes only really appeared in the post war boom period, imported from south Italy by migrant workers. Hence, rice as a key element in local cuisine. Our book of historical recipes from Milan lists 13 specific risotto types.
Shopping in Milan. Italy's Fashion Capital
Milan is, of course, the fashion capital of the world. The capital of the region of Lombardia is knwon to everyone as a shopper's paradise and perhaps the city boasts the finest collection of designer shops in Europe. But, navigating through the many shopping districts is a little easier said than done. With so many options available, it is important to know what you are looking for.
For the season's latest designs
Quadrilatero della Moda - Literally meaning "Quadrilateral of Fashion," this district boasts the most lavish and refined shops in the city.
Galleria Vittorio Emanuele - This beautiful galleria is reputed to be one of the world's first shopping malls. Inside you will find various elegant restaurants and designer stores. Right outside the galleria, in piazza Duomo, is La Rinascente - Milan's premier department store, spread throughout 8 floors.
Recipe for saffron risotto alla Milanese
Risotto allo zafferano, together with the classic cotoletta alla milanese steak, is almost an obligation if you find yourself in Milan. This dish of rice with saffron was invented in 1574 for the wedding banquet of the daughter of a master glassmaker who was working on the city's Cathedral.
Saffron was used to produce the yellow colour in many artworks of the period and the cook for the occasion wanted to pay homage to the father. Many tests were needed to get a palatable tint, but his idea was such a success that the yellow rice became very popular and remianed one of the most caracteristic dishes of the city and region.
The classic ingredients are onions, grana padana cheese and beef marrow. In 1891, Pellegrino Artusi in his 'La Scienza in Cucina and l'Arte di Mangiare Bene', mentions three variants of the risotto alla milanese, from lighest to richest and, since 2007, the dish has been formally recognized by the Milan Municipality as a De.Co. (Denominazione Comunale) together with Panettone, Ossobuco, Cassoeula and Michetta bread.
An Epicurean Visit of Milano
"For me Milan is the most beautiful place on earth". No, I'm not quoting myself, but Stendhal. Nevertheless, both of us have found the city to be at the heart of a refined epicureanism which represents the Lombardy region.
While Milan hums and roars with business, it seems the cows are working overtime in the region's mountain meadows providing luscious milk for cheeses such as like Taleggio, Mascarpone, Gorgonzola, Grana Padano, as well as fresh Bitto, Crescenza and Stracchino. Rice and corn are even grown to feed the region's passion for risotto and polenta.
St Augustin route near Milan
The 'St. Augustine Route ' is a pilgrim route in Northern Italy which takes in the area of Brianza and Monza near Milan,which connects 25 Marian sanctuaries and locations dedciated to St. Augustine. The faith route in fact highlights sites such as his home in Cassago together with a great number of icons and shrines and sanctuaries.
The beauty of the route however is also that the only way to can do it is by foot or bike and passes along some beautiful relaxing and peaceful places you wouldn't guess to find only a few miles distant from big towns. The route is divided into three itineraries: from Brianza to Milan, from Milan to Pavia and then towards Genoa.
The Last Supper and Art in Milan
Notwithstanding the glam and colour of Europe's finest 'ready-to-wear' fashion scene, Milan may seem pretty grey at times. But if you know where to go there are oases of incredible art and imagination from museums, galleries and permanent exhibitions.

Mantova, 5 attractions not to miss
Mantova is a fabulous place to visit and we go along with Torquato Tasso writing in 1586 following his visit to Lombardia: "This is a most beautiful town worthy of travelling a thousand miles to see it'". So what are you waiting for!
1. The Dukes Palace
Palazzo Ducale is really a town in the shape of a palace and was built to compete with the major European courts of the 13th to 14th centuries. It is 34,000 square meters of lanes, squares, courtyards, gardens and well preserved rooms housing priceless masterpieces. Not least the 'Camera dei Sposi' sumptuously frescoed by Andrea Mantegna with Emperors, Kings and crowds of people. horses and dogs. In fact, the ruling Gonzagas were great animal lovers and even built a dog's courtyard by a lakeside wing of the complex. You can still see a gravestone to their beloved 'Oriana'.

Tré grew up in Willits, California, with his father and two siblings. His dad built many of the houses in that area, including that of Lawrance Livermore, their nearest neighbor and the founder of Lookout! Records. At age twelve, he joined Livermore's band, the Lookouts. Shortly after Al Sobrante left Green Day, Tré hopped aboard.
Green Day's first major label album "Dookie", released in 1993, propelled them to stardom, with a slew of successful follow up albums developing a huge international following and selling over 20 million records worldwide. Green Day's, "American Idiot", released in 2004, nominated for seven Grammy Awards, including Album of the Year and Record of the Year, reinforced their longevity as one of rock's true staples.
Tré's solid and always tasteful drumming has earned him respect as one of rock's best drummers. He uses a variety of Zildjian cymbals, including K Dark Thin Crashes and Zildjian Tré Cool Artist Series Drumsticks.

Four weeks ago i had hyaluronic acid fillers in my nasolabial folds. Since then i have been getting palpitations and mild chest pain and generally feeling run down. I am wondering whether this is a possible side effect of the injections. The injection site is fine - no swelling, redness or bruising. Thanks
Are Palpiations and Chest Pains a Side Effect of Hyaluronic Acid Fillers?

Are Palpiations and Chest Pains a Side Effect of Hyaluronic Acid Fillers?
No not really, but it is possible you could be having an allergic reaction. Seek immediate medical attention, not over the internet advise.

NEW HAVEN, Conn., June 04, 2007 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- VION PHARMACEUTICALS, INC. announced that it presented updated clinical data in a poster session at the 43rd Annual Meeting of The American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) on its lead anticancer agent Cloretazine(R) (VNP40101M) as a single agent in a Phase II trial in patients with relapsed or refractory small cell lung cancer.
The Phase II trial evaluates Cloretazine(R) (VNP40101M) in two separate subpopulations of small cell lung cancer: (i) sensitive relapse disease and (ii) refractory disease. Sensitive relapse disease is defined as relapse after three months of first-line therapy and refractory disease is defined as relapse within three months of first-line therapy. Data are presented on a total of 48 evaluable patients: (i) 20 patients in the sensitive relapse arm and (ii) 28 patients in the refractory arm.
Patients on the trial initially received 125 mg/m2 of Cloretazine(R) (VNP40101M) weekly for three weeks, every six weeks. This dose was later reduced by protocol amendment to 100 mg/m2 weekly for three weeks every six weeks due to the incidence of grade 3 and 4 thrombocytopenia at the initial dose level.
Of the 20 evaluable patients on the sensitive relapse arm, there have been 6 patients with partial response and one patient awaiting confirmation of response (overall, 35% response rate), and 3 patients have stable disease. Four of 13 sensitive relapse patients responded at the 125 mg/m2 dose level and 3 of 7 sensitive relapse patients responded at the 100 mg/m2 dose level. Of the 28 patients with refractory disease treated with Cloretazine(R) (VNP40101M), 1 patient achieved a partial response and 3 patients have demonstrated stable disease.
A total of 55 patients were evaluable for toxicity. Grade 3 and
4 thrombocytopenia was observed in 14 of 31 patients (45%) at the
125 mg/m2 dose level. Thrombocytopenia was su

Re: TRIP/MICHAEL/CONNOR: You're All We Think About
Temis the Vorta said:
Heroes: Origins is a contest to see which new hero is popular enough to be catapaulted to the main series. If Connor were on it, the other characters wouldn't have a chance.
I'd like to see him on the regular Heroes show as a villain. He does such a good job as Michael, but let's face it, SG:A rarely gives actors very interesting material. He needs to be on a more ambitiously-written show.
"Heroes" and its spin-off is THE show to be on and playing an anti-hero would be something different- not a total do-gooder like Peter but not a psychopath like Syler, someone in between, a "Heroes" version of Black Adam or Hyperion.
An excellent non-genre series is AMC's "Mad Men." Its about Madison Avenue ad executives in 1960. Smoking, drinking, womanizing, totally non PC series. Connor played a reporter in that Mickey Mantle HBO movie years back, he could definitely play early sixties guy.
Connor needs to be on a show where he gets noticed, who the hell is his agent?!

Is anyone else not having a baby shower?
Baby Showers.. not having one :-(
Not having one either - this little one is a different sex and it will be 5 years between births, but as far as I know second showers aren't really done here. I've had a couple friends or family mention I "should" have one, because all babies should be celebrated, but at this point I'm pretty sure it's not happening - with my first we found out in May and by the end of June a shower date was picked by my aunt and MIL. This time we've known since Feb and no one has said anything, so I finally told DH last month we couldn't wait any more to start spreading costs out or we'd have to do them all at once at the end.
It is kind of a bummer - not because I want gifts, but because I want to celebrate. I was hyperemetic with my first pregnancy and on partial bed rest by the time my shower came with my first, so I feel like I never got to enjoy that pregnancy. I want to have fun with this one and this time I feel like a shower would be a blast, but I also feel like it would be tacky to host my own. We're thinking of doing a meet-the-baby thing after he's born but I don't honestly see myself having the energy to do it then, haha!
Lily Ann - 1/31/09, fertility baby <3
Miles Alexander - 9/30/13, impossible (but much desired!) surprise
Nope - not having one. This is number 2, also a boy. I did however create a registry so that if anyone asked I can point them in the direction of what we need for baby number 2. The list is more for us, but hey, I won't reject anyone who wants to help!
No baby shower here. This is my first baby with DH, his first baby, the first grandchild on his side, and I am in a totally different state that I was in when I had my first two (which was 9 and 5 yrs ago - I dont have anything left). I'm a little hurt, but it's okay. I asked DH if he wanted to do a gender reveal before we found out, but he said no one would care :( We have a few friends that are expecting, and I just got an invite to one of their baby showers. I didnt have one with DD, and I had a few neighbors though one with DS (no one we were close to). It just hurts that no one who is close to me has EVER thrown me one :(

So what have we been up to lately? Well, a couple folks here have been working on a baseline whitepaper to showcase the business value and technical capabilities of Microsoft SoftGrid technology for applications deployment and OS migration scenarios. Yes, I know that's a mouthful but it's good stuff and it's now available online at http://www.softricity.com/news/ecollateral/public/SoftGrid-Application-Virtualization-The-Next-Frontier.pdf.
So far we've received extremely positive feedback on this so if you're not terribly familiar with SoftGrid then I hope you take a couple minutes to read through it and see what we have to offer.
White Paper Title:
Microsoft SoftGrid Application Virtualization - The Next Frontier
How Microsoft SoftGrid Application Virtualization technology can help organizations curb IT costs, boost user productivity, improve service levels and increase business agility.
IT departments today are struggling to cut costs while increasing operational agility, delivering superior service, and maintaining high customer satisfaction. Application virtualization with Microsoft SoftGrid technologies can help with all of these goals. By converting applications into virtual services that are managed and hosted centrally but run on demand locally, application virtualization reduces the complexity and labor involved in deploying, updating, and managing applications. In addition, because the virtualized applications run in their own environment on client machines, they can significantly reduce application or operating system conflicts - and therefore reduce the need for regression testing or for server silos to host the various applications. With the resulted consolidations, hardware costs will be much lower than they are today and managing IT assets will be simpler, resulting in lower administrative costs. In short, by helping IT organizations decrease total cost of ownership (TCO), increase service levels, and more easily respond to changing requirements, application virtualization can serve as a strategic tool that delivers significant competitive advantage and that allows your organization to move further along the infrastructure optimization continuum.
Omer Qureshi has done an outstanding job of communicating the benefits of Application Streaming and Virtualization.
I noticed that the SGVAS was renamed to Microsoft System Center VAS. How does this look in the picture of MS System Center. It isn't mentioned on the website of MS System Center (yet?)
Can we have some more information about how SoftGrid is 'plugged into' Longhorn? Is it a part of Longhorn or do customers have to buy it as an addon?
All information available now give the suggestion that the total SoftGrid servers will be part of Longhorn, but I have my doubts with it.

Today marks the official start to the hectic holiday season. Love this time of year. Being the good little hospitable gay that you are, I'm sure you're hosting some sort of party in December. Whether it's an open house, an intimate orphan Christmas dinner or a New Year's extravaganza, I have a few tasty drink recipes you should give a try. I have a cocktail recipe to suit the tastebuds of any guest you'll be entertaining.
The EFFEN Toasted White Cranberry and Sauza Cider Hot Toddy are perfect to accompany a lovely holiday feast or fireside conversation. The EFFEN Salted Caramel Chai Sangria brings just the right amount of spice to a traditional sangria cocktail, perfect for cutting that winter chill. Mix up a batch that serves 20 and keep your guests happy all night long! The Orange Truffle Delight is also the perfect accompaniment to any party and a breeze to whip up for multiple people in a flash. Check them all out below.

Happy Fourth of July to our American readers today. Hope ya'll having a great holiday. In your honor, I decided to reach out to our friends at Sauza Tequila and Effen Vodka for a few tasty drink recipes to enjoy on Independence Day.
If the following cocktails are too fancy for your liking, my recommendation is to try Sauza's newest innovation, the Sauza Sparkling Margarita. It's perfect when you're looking to spend less time behind the bar and more time entertaining. Simply chill, pour and pop in a festive straw! As always, drink responsibility and don't drink and drive.
7 1/2 parts Sauza® Blue Silver 100% Agave Tequila*
4 1/2 parts Dekuyper® Blue Curacao
1 13 ounce can frozen lemonade
1 light beer
Method: Combine all ingredients in a pitcher filled with ice. Serve over ice, with or without salt, garnish with a lime wedge or twist and enjoy! Salud! (Serves 7)
Summer is just weeks away and that means pride is also right around the corner. So many people have started their "pride diets" and intensified gym programs to get that perfect 6-pack and chiseled physique just right for that pool party or beach day. While I always try to watch what I eat and go to the gym when I can (I'll admit it's not nearly as much as I should), like many people I tend to have those problem areas where I just can't seem to lose weight and tighten up. For me it's under my chin, and around the midsection. For some people, its on their hips or their legs. Whatever the case may be, I decided to try adding in Venus Freeze treatments to my summer regimen to see if I can't come closer to that flatter midsection. (I think a 6-pack on me might be a little far fetched).
I first head about Venus Freeze when I was watching Real Housewives of Vancouver and saw Jody, Amanda, and Ronnie getting the treatments in Toronto. I was excited to learn that Phresh Spa in Vancouver had also recently begun offering the treatment and decided to book an appointment with them. Phresh Spa is a beautiful spa tucked away in the Sandman Hotel in Vancouver's West End. Their staff are extremely welcoming and helpful and their facilities are gorgeous and comfortable. Before I talk about my experience there I should explain what the treatment is and how it works. According to venusfreeze.com…
Memorial Day weekend officially kicks off summer for our American readers. It's a time to bond with friends, enjoy the sun, relax and partake in some adult beverages. There's nothing more refreshing than sipping an ice cold cocktail on a hot day at the beach. Don't you agree? I'm sure you do.
With that in mind, I reached out to a few of our friends to whip up a few tasty concoctions to share. Check out the drink recipes below featuring Sauza Tequila, EFFEN Vodka and Crave Chocolate Liqueurs. Speaking of Sauza, if you haven't checked out their hot lifeguard, I've included him below as well. Enjoy and drink responsibly.
How To Make
In a small pitcher, muddle together the mint leaves, sugar and lime juice until they start to melt together. Add your Sauza® Blue Silver. Fill 4 glasses with ice and pour cocktail mixture 3/4 of the way to the top of each glass. Fill each glass with club soda and garnish with a lime and an extra sprig of mint. (Serves 4)

Happy Cinco de Mayo everyone. Today may be the day to partake in everything Mexican related, but it seems for me, I've been celebrating all weekend long. What can I say. I love me some Mexican cuisine and beverages. That's why I'll never have an eight-pack ;)
I reached out to our friends over at Sauza Tequila for a few drink recipes to share with you today. Our previous post about their cocktails for Margarita Day proved so popular, I thought I'd share some more. Enjoy responsibly. Don't drink too much. Otherwise you might find it a bit difficult to beat the crap out of that pinata.
2 parts Sauza Blue Reposado Tequila
2 parts Orange Juice
2 dashes grenadine
In a glass filled with ice stir together orange juice and tequila. Pour the two dashes of grenadine down the side so that it settles to the bottom of the glass. Salud!
Philips Norelco gets up close and personal with male grooming rituals with their "I'd FAQ Me" campaign. The creative is trying to help the brand expand beyond its older user demographic to a younger, 20-something guy. The campaign was conceived by Ogilvy & Mather and directed by Michael Downing at Epoch. "I'd Date Me" and "I'd Beach Me" are the latest clips from the brilliant new campaign.
The two new ad spots feature men using the company's Click & Style Razor. Each man stands in front of the mirror manscaping as he contemplates all the wonderful things he would do to himself. From "I'd wink at me," says one guy to "I would share a shawarma with me," expect the unexpected to come out of their respective mouths. Both clips end with "I'd FAQ me," with the middle word, a good sound-alike for the F-bomb, silenced and his mouth pixelated.

Blueprints of Urban Ministry

moreFor far too long we've neglected the urban mission field. Many churches have moved to the outskirts of the city for various reasons, and the urban landscape appears to be forgotten. Dr. René Rochester presents a vision for how communities can change this pattern and plant redemptive and sustainable urban ministries. Models, Mentors, and Messages takes a close look at the developmental stages of Jesus' life, focusing on how family, his heavenly Father, the Jewish community, and neighboring nations were used to shape his holy destiny. Through the example of Jesus' life, you will learn how to draw on your own formative years to show urban teens how to live out God's call in their communities. The most authentic models are individuals who have wrestled through life's challenges and learned to trust God in difficult situations, and so by empowering urban students today and showing them how to nurture one another in faith, you can help create sustainable ministries in which each generation will model for the next how to follow Jesus.The first of its kind, this book doesn't try to force old models on the urban context, but rather teaches new ways to draw on Jesus' teachings to help an urban, hip-hop generation live for Jesus and for one another. less

TUESDAY, Dec. 13 (HealthDay News) -- In the aftermath of a deadly crash in Missouri that killed two and injured 38, the U.S. National Transportation Safety Board is recommending a nationwide ban on drivers' use of cellphones and other personal electronic devices, except in emergencies.
According to media reports, the board was meeting Tuesday in Washington, D.C., to discuss the fatal pileup that occurred last year in Gray Summit, Mo. The NTSB noted that the 19-year-old driver of a pickup truck involved in the crash sent or received 11 text messages within the 11 minutes prior to the pileup, including one just before impact.
The pickup truck collided with the back of a tractor trailer and was rear-ended by a school bus, which in turn was rear-ended by another school bus, the Associated Press reported. The pickup driver and a 15-year-old on one of the buses were killed.
In her opening statement on Tuesday, NTSB chairman Deborah Hersman acknowledged that, "We will never know whether the driver was typing, reaching for the phone, or reading a text when his pickup ran into the truck in front of him without warning," the Washington Post reported. "But, we do know he had been distracted -- cognitively, manually, and visually -- while driving. Driving was not his only priority."
According to the AP, NTSB board member Robert Sumwalt said that Missouri had a law in place at the time banning texting by drivers under the age of 21, but he believes the state was not aggressive enough in enforcing the statute.
The perils of distracted driving may extend across the United States, however.
In a recent Harris Interactive/HealthDay poll of more than 2,800 U.S. adults, released in late November, 59 percent said that while driving they had talked on a non-hands-free cellphone, and 37 percent said they had texted while driving. For others, the practice is more habitual: 18 percent of survey re
