Black Bean and Quinoa Salad with Basil Lemon Dressing
The other day I hopped onto Pinterest for a few minutes. Which turned into an hour. I went on to look for something specific that I can't even remember right now. And ended up pinning a bunch of DIY projects for hubby. Have you seen the site Shanty 2 Chic? This site is full of great DIY projects. I found enough projects to last a really long time. Hubby says they require a few more tools than he has though. A couple of my favorites are the Restoration Hardware inspired sideboard and the farmhouse table. There are also plenty of smaller projects too. Interior decorating is definitely not my forte. We have been in this house about a year and a half and it definitely needs some decor help.
I have a ton of ideas I have pinned. One of my goals for May is to finish the photo wall I started after Christmas and finish sewing my kitchen curtains. If I can finish those I will find one other small project to start.
On to the recipe for today.
I was looking for quinoa recipes and went to CookingLight.com which is one of my go-to sources for recipes. One of the recipes I found was this protein packed black bean and quinoa salad. The weather is warmer which always make me start to eat lighter meals. This one is perfect. The basil-lemon dressing gives it a really light and fresh flavor. This recipe makes a lot so there will be plenty of leftovers for lunches later in the week.
- 1 1/2 cups uncooked quinoa
- 3 cups water
- 1 (14-ounce) package extra firm tofu, cut into 1/4-inch cubes
- 3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
- 1 teaspoons salt
- 1 cup chopped fresh basil
- juice of 1 lemon
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 2 teaspoons lemon zest
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 (10-ounce) package frozen shelled edamame
- 2-3 tomatoes, chopped
- 1/2 cup sliced green onions
- 1/2 cup chopped carrot
- 1 (15-ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained (or 2 cups if using un-canned)
- Combine the quinoa and water in a medium saucepan. Bring to boil. Reduce heat to simmer and simmer for about 15 minutes, until water is absorbed.
- LIghtly press the tofu between a couple paper towels. Heat 1 Tbs oil in a large skillet. Add tofu and cook until browned on all sides. Let cool.
- Combine 2 Tbs oil, salt, basil, lemon juice and zest, mustard, sugar, black pepper, and garlic in a large bowl. Add the quinoa.
- Cook the edamame according to package directions. Let cool a bit.
- Add the edamame, black beans, tomatoes, green onions, and carrots to the quinoa. Stir to combine. Store in the refrigerator until ready to serve.

Genetic diversity of selected genes that are potentially economically important in feral sheep of New Zealand
1 Department of Agricultural Science, Faculty of Agriculture and Life Sciences, PO Box 84, Lincoln University, Lincoln 7647, New Zealand
2 Environment Canterbury, PO Box 345, Christchurch 8140, New Zealand
3 Faculty of Sport and Health Sciences, Eastern Institute of Technology, Private Bag 1201, Napier, New Zealand
Genetics Selection Evolution 2010, 42:43 doi:10.1186/1297-9686-42-43Published: 21 December 2010
Feral sheep are considered to be a source of genetic variation that has been lost from their domestic counterparts through selection.
This study investigates variation in the genes KRTAP1-1, KRT33, ADRB3 and DQA2 in Merino-like feral sheep populations from New Zealand and its offshore islands. These genes have previously been shown to influence wool, lamb survival and animal health.
All the genes were polymorphic, but no new allele was identified in the feral populations. In some of these populations, allele frequencies differed from those observed in commercial Merino sheep and other breeds found in New Zealand. Heterozygosity levels were comparable to those observed in other studies on feral sheep. Our results suggest that some of the feral populations may have been either inbred or outbred over the duration of their apparent isolation.
The variation described here allows us to draw some conclusions about the likely genetic origin of the populations and selective pressures that may have acted upon them, but they do not appear to be a source of new genetic material, at least for these four genes.

LtPlissken - hvala puno Sto se napretka tice doduse moglo ga je bit i vise, al dobro, ide i ovako. Istina je da je velik dio toga sto sam naucila u zadnjih par godina upravo zbog CHOW-a, odgovara mi to sto imam rok koji me tjera da zavrsim, a i super kritike dobijem jer su ljudi stvarno super
Just thought I'd post the finished picture and some sketches, I'm doing the full figure from now on, feet and everything. Also, the last one (my Vampire Dark Ages character, Gangrel) was supposed to look like she was punched and flying backwards but now I see I should've positioned the legs a bit differently. Ah well...
Also, I draw feet too tiny. Gotta watch out for that.
Bok Majo!
Hvala ti na posjeti i lijepim riječima! Stvarno sam sretan kad mi netko pohvali moje crteže!
Tvoji radovi su odlični,mogu puno naučiti od tebe... Imam puno posla,ali obećavam da ću te bolje pratiti nadalje jer su mi tvoji radovi čista inspiracija!

That is exactly what bothers me by doing the character of the week concept, the fear that I will not finish it on time. Well then, I will vote for you in the next turn.
I like the Troll 2 chainsaw morbid painting, even if it is not too refined, it looks great.

I haven't been updating because life is pretty much a bitch that has me working 12 hours a day but hopefully it'll go easier on me soon. Here are the two measly sketches I've done in the meantime, a pencil sketch and a color practice (True Blood's Franklin Mott who is an awesome character)
Gunslinger still not finished.
now off to returning the favors to you lovely people xD
awesome studies man, the improvement in only 7 pages is HUGE! Great work. Your linework in particular has changed so much, it looks like a different person is drawing your later studies. Keep up the hard work.

I really like that True Blood's Franklin Mott portrait.

Thank you so much people!
Here's a small update, Franklin Mott with a makeover and a composition for my Gangrel for a campaign we're about to start in Vampire: The Masquerade. It's the first one I'm trying to do from scratch in PS.
Double post, sorry.
You have pretty good skills, but maybe try to add color variations to people, with overlay layer for example, and when you go lighter, where the light is falling, go towards yellow instead of white. I think your shadows on people could be more intense in color also.
Otherwise it's all awesome, especially pencil works, keep it up.

Something awesome:

Niceeee sketchbook!Nice lines and rendering!Try to saturate ur last portrait a little bit more(more orange color)Keep practicing ur progress is nice!
Hey Whistler! Your work is really coming along in here. That Franklin Mott portrait looks great - I love the detail in the features and the variety of colors in the skin tone. The Gangrel image looks like it's going to be an interesting one, and the female character reminds me a lot of your self-portraits! That pencil sketch in post #202 looks awesome (especially the feet and the hands, but all it looks really good), and I really like your queen of music in post #183. I think her skin could be a tad rosier, but that could be a matter of taste. Right now the roses stand out a bit more because her skin is quite desaturated, but then if you did have some areas that were a bit warmed, they would relate to the roses very well. I dunno, maybe that's just me In any case, great work girl! Keep posting! ^^

Cameli - thanks! I'll try
dierat - you're back! Awesome! Thanks for the comments, yeah, the gangrel looks a bit like me... Dammit. As for the tattooed lady, I should've done the skin a bit more saturated. That's the part I always mess up... But there's always the next picture
Now for the two sketches... DnD character, and Aladdin for this week's CHOW.

New York State Police questioned Collard's son who was nine at the time of his mother's death.
The son called Collard and warned the police were coming, but Collard did not run.

'On Behalf of a Grateful Nation'
12:00 PM, May 30, 2011 • By WILLIAM KRISTOL
Here are a few posts worth reading, I think, on this Memorial Day.
Amy Kass and Leon Kass explain why we should "Take Time to Remember."
D. G. Myers compares Allen Tate's "Ode to the Confederate Dead," first published in 1927, with Robert Lowell's reply in 1960, "For the Union Dead," as part of a very interesting reflection on the history of Memorial Day (and provides useful links, as well).
Tom Manion writes movingly about several young men who made the ultimate sacrifice in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Susan Auld writes about teaching the young to remember the sacrifices of the past, and calls attention to two poems in particular, "In Flanders Fields" and "Grass."
Roy Exum's column focuses on A. Lawrence Vaincourt's "A Soldier Died Today," now inscribed on a monument at West Point.
Art Goodrich points out that "Many Died For Your Three Day Weekend," and calls attention to one of his favorite Memorial Day poems.
For more Memorial Day related links, visit this link at www.usmemorialday.org.
I can't resist closing with the opening stanza of Theodore O'Hara's "Bivouac Of The Dead," inscribed on the McClellan Gate at Arlington Cemetery:

Learn how to use a circular polisher, a.k.a, rotary polisher or professional high speed buffer, to restore your vehicle's finish to showroom condition. These step-by-step guides explain the difference between a circular polisher and a dual action polisher, how a circular polisher works, and how to remove swirls and scratches with a circular polisher. Below you'll find a how-to describing the Edge 2000 Pad System, which applies to all double-sided pads with a center adapter. You'll also see the Lake Country CCS guide, which includes techniques that work with any pads with hook and loop fasteners and a backing plate.
What is a circular polisher?
A circular polisher has a polishing head that spins on only one axis, like a drill. The polisher is capable of spinning a pad at high speeds, typically 600-3000 RPM. The speed of the polisher produces more heat and friction than a dual action polisher. Therefore a circular polisher has the ability to level the paint very quickly and effectively.
A dual action polisher has a central spindle and an offset spindle where the pad spins, which create an orbital effect. The pad itself moves much more slowly than a pad on a circular polisher, which makes dual action polishers very safe but less effective at removing deep scratches.
The high speed spinning motion that makes circular polishers so effective at paint correction also makes them more risky in inexperienced hands. Circular polishers produce a lot of heat that can actually burn through the paint. You MUST keep a circular polisher moving at all times to avoid concentrating that heat on one spot. It only takes seconds to burn through the clear coat, color coat, and primer.
Popular models of circular polishers are the FLEX L3403 VRG Lightweight Circular Polisher, the Makita 9227C, and the DeWalt DWP849X.
Facts about Clearcoat
The typical clear coat is about the thickness of two layers of cellophane wrapper – very thin! This is the layer that protects the color coat from the elements and gives the vehicle a nice shine. Because the clear coat is so thin, it's very important to polish only when needed and to use caution with a circular polisher.
The Paint Facts - Typical Industry Paint Thickness Specs.
Paint thickness is measured in mils. 1000 mils =1 inch. A mil is not to be confused with a millimeter. A mil is a different unit of measure used to describe the thickness of wire, paper and other materials sold in sheets.
Polishing Tips
Work at a slow speed and increase gradually if needed. Typically, you'll work between 1000-1200 RPM, never exceeding 1800 RPM.
Keep the polisher moving at all times to avoid burning the paint.
Avoid corners and the edges of panels where the paint is thinner.
This guide will give you a good start, but you will develop your own techniques as you become more comfortable with the machine.
What problems can a circular polisher correct?
A circular polisher can remove severe swirls and scratches, oxidation, etching, and any other paint defect as long as they do not extend through the clear coat all the way to the color coat. If you can run your fingernail over a scratch and your fingernail catches, generally the scratch is too deep to be removed without rwet-sanding, or possibly repainting. If you have a deep scratch down to the color coat, you can't level the paint to that point without removing a lot of paint. Don't compound the problem. Instead, leave that repair up to the professionals.
That said, many detailers enjoy the high speed performance and quick paint correction of a circular/ rotary polisher. All it takes is practice and a steady hand to master the art of machine polishing.

The much awaited results of the Public, Multiformat Listening Test @ 64 kbps are ready - partially. So far, I only uploaded an overall plot along with a zoomed version. The details will be available tomorrow. You can also download the encryption key on the results page that is located here:
Nero and WMA Professional 10 are tied and WMA Professional 10 is tied to Vorbis. Vorbis however performed worse than Nero. Of course, High Anchor is best and Low Anchor loses.
This one goes to the experts: How would you rank codecs in such a situation, where A=B and B=C, but C<A?

Wow, thanks a lot for posting so fast these results.
WMAPro is competitive against HE-AAC at 64 kbps... great result for this new format. What were Microsoft listening tests on this subject (I forgot it)?

Compare to the last 48kbit/s listening test, 64kbits will only bring slightly better results.
I-tunes at 96kbits ist transparent for most users on both tests.
WMA is not interesting for me.
Nero-AAC HE score was 3,64 points at 48kbits, now we can see 3,74 points at 64kbits.
This is not very impressive for me. I thought Nero will performe better at 64kbit/s.
Of course, it is still usable for e.g. portable devices or good quality webradio.
Vorbis is also better at 64kbits/ (3,16 to 3,32 points )
So i can go with itunes at 96kbit for high quality use (maybe nero performing better at this bitrate?), and 48-64kbits for medium quality use.
maybe 80kbits/s will hit a 4.xx score?
i think the next test should be a 96-112kbit multi-format test, also including Lame.

TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) _ It's official. Kansas has been selected as the winner of the National Bio and Agro-Defense Facility.
The Department of Homeland Security's Directorate for Science and Technology published Friday its record of decision that confirmed a December decision to award the project to Kansas.
Sites in Georgia, Mississippi, North Carolina and Texas were the other finalists. The project replaces an aging federal lab at Plum Island, N.Y. Scientists will be researching and developing new vaccines for deadly foreign animal and other biological threats.
Construction is expected to begin in 2010 at a site near Kansas State University in Manhattan. The lab will cost at least $450 million in federal funds.
Officials in Texas are considering a legal challenge to the decision.

Plastic Process Equipment
The plastic processing economy is very dynamic. Manufacturers that provide processing equipment come and go at the market scene and those who truly offers quality technology and reliability stays for good.
Plastic processing puts a string on your budget and opting for the right and needed equipment using revolutionary microprocessor-based technology is a sound investment. Other companies make available various processing equipment such as granulators, blenders, dryers, blowers etc that give wide processing effects on plastic and synthetic materials.
Factors to Consider
Several factors or elements are taken into consideration upon selecting what plastic processing equipment to obtain. The foremost concern is process maintenance or control that is easily determined and full understanding of the control of the full plastic processing is called for, and then the issue of modification props up as well as compatibility to other current products. The other two things for manufacturers to remember is the factor of customer's satisfaction and the company's ability to sustain.
Set Up and Maintenance
Plastic processors must have a methodology for setting up a process and other key parameters like speed, pressure and stroke. For example, plastic granulators cut materials down to half or to its tiny version and the Foremost brand is designed for edge trim reclaim, roller feeder uses or any application where "scissor type" cutting action is necessary. They offer buyers motor warranty and a full line of granulator accessories. Equipment maintenance is essential in timely keeping track of the machine's overall structure and function hence preventing major setbacks and breakdowns in the process. Assessment of these ought to be done by the clock and appropriately documented. Also, an inventory of expendable parts and equipment is valuable.
Manufacturing Control
Tying up the production of the plastic processing operation can affect the whole cycle of delivery and acquisition. Customers are impacted with any delays or surge in manufacturing and optimizing the equipment and the whole plastic processing can turn profitable indeed. Many companies maintain a daily meeting and inventory of the entire trade so that feedbacks are presented and well-timed decisions and changes are made.
Manufacturers of the plastic processing equipment serve numerous industries well and further steps toward some advances have sustained different sectors of the world.

Pacheco Elementary School Reviews
Great Community School
This ia a good, solid school with excellent values. They teach a sense of community in a semi-rural area. They are responsive to parents' needs and the teachers are passionate about their teaching and "their" children.
my son goes to Pacheco Middle school he cut the elective class cause the teacher said he was unfit and was giving him a hard time he went from a size 32 to a 28 in a mouth by barley eating . i was not called they gave him a detention slip and thats how i found out. He got suspended for throwing a rock and hit a bird now tell me what chances of you hitting a bird the school threating to call fish in game on him now granted he should of not been throwing the rock but come on suspended. He was also called names by some kids at school when he called one back he got suspended the others did not until we said name calling is name calling than the school did something .

ASPEN, Colo. (AP) -- Authorities say a 56-year-old man was killed when he crashed into a tree while skiing at Aspen Mountain.
The Pitkin County Sheriff's Office says Jonathan Stuart of Aspen was found unconscious and tangled up in trees near the intermediate Bellissimo run at about 2:45 p.m. Saturday. Ski patrollers began CPR, but Stuart was pronounced dead at the scene.
Aspen Skiing Co. spokesman Jeff Hanle says Stuart, who was wearing a helmet, was on the run for about 20 minutes before he was found. He was skiing with friends who had been waiting for him at the base of the gondola.
Longtime friend Brent Gardner-Smith tells the Aspen Daily News that Stuart as "one of the warmest, nicest guys." He says he was married and had two children.

Tepor, a subsidiary of Cosfibel, recently created six cases for Paco Rabanne's Valentine's Day EDT. Inside the box, a wedge cradles an EDT and a key-shaped USB key. The clear thermoformed wedge keeps the products in "suspension," while spotlighting them and letting the printed back show through. There is further decoration adorning the sides of the base—embossed writing covered with a selective varnish.

Depending on your age and your interest in politics, you may or may not remember the name Joseph Alsop—the real-life title character of Florida Studio Theatre's current production, The Columnist, by David Auburn. For years he was a feared and much-followed journalist whose column was syndicated widely, and he wielded significant power in the halls of Washington.
But in any case, it's doubtful you know too much about his life, and for playwright Auburn that's a problem to overcome, not altogether successfully. The Columnist spends so much time being expository it seldom touches any emotions. It doesn't help that Alsop himself seems to have been wary of emotions, keeping himself somewhat sealed off even from those closest to him.
The first scene of the play, set in 1954 Moscow, shows Alsop (Jeffrey Plunkett) in bed just after a tryst with a young Russian (John Keabler). Alsop's homosexuality is not a secret to his sympathetic brother, Stewart (Robert Gomes), who's been a collaborator on his columns, nor to his soon-to-be wife, Susan Mary (Rachel Moulton), who is, initially at least, content to share his home and hostess his parties without expecting anything more. But it is a problem for the time and place he lives in, one that leaves him ripe for exposure and/or blackmail.
Back home in D.C. years later, Alsop celebrates the election of John F. Kennedy; he was close to the Kennedy administration, as he had been to Franklin Delano Roosevelt's, despite his traditional Republican upbringing. But with Kennedy's death, and Lyndon B. Johnson's succession, Alsop turns to avidly—and sometimes viciously—supporting the war in Vietnam, even as other journalists (including David Halberstam, whose first scene here, played by Michael Zlabinger, feels overwrought) turn against it.
The changing times of the 1950s and '60s are represented by the music played before each act begins, and especially by Alsop's stepdaughter, Abigail (Marie Claire Roussel), with whom he may share the least complicated and most simply loving relationship of his life. It's when he's helping her with her Latin, or trying to be the sort of parent concerned over her skirt length, that we see him at his most human.
Otherwise, in Plunkett's performance, Alsop is cool, patrician, intellectual—all the things the man most surely was and all things that may in his day have been a sort of shield for homosexuality. But although Plunkett and his fellow cast members, along with director Kate Alexander, try to bring the play to full life, it doesn't quite make it—remaining more of a distant look back at one man's place in history.
The Columnist continues through April 7; for tickets call 366-9000 or go to floridastudiotheatre.org.

When Alexa Chung tweeted a photo of Nails Inc.'s Bling It On Leather Effect nail polish a couple of years ago, people took note—so much so, in fact, that it immediately sold out and the wait list skyrocketed to 900 people.
Well, now that Nails Inc. has officially named Chung as its latest brand ambassador, we're sure that the company's upcoming collection will fly off shelves as well. Not only is the stylish trendsetter the new face of the brand, but she even helped develop an upcoming polish range due out in August, which includes six textured, fabric-inspired polishes with fun names like "Alexa Cashmere" and "Alexa Sequin." Plus, she had input on the swanky new design of the bottle.
Chung is clearly no stranger to the beauty world. She's coming out with her second Eyeko makeup collab next month, and is also the face of L'Oréal Professional. As for what beauty gig is next, that's anyone's guess—skincare, perhaps?

Cristiano Ronaldo has been trying to conquer Spain for years. Until recently, he has been thwarted in this endeavor by some of the same players that will oppose Portugal in the semifinal at Euro 2012. But fresh off winning his first La Liga crown since joining Real Madrid, the Portuguese forward aims to add another epic result to his sterling resume.
Of course, the mesmeric passing of Spain means that Ronaldo may see precious few chances to make an impression at Donbass Arena in Ukraine. Winners at both the 2010 World Cup and Euro 2008, Spain enter the match as the prohibitive favorites and the purveyors of the most beautiful -- and emulated -- style in the world. The team that emerges victorious on Wednesday will await the winner of the other semifinal match between Italy and Germany.
To bring a bit more of an Iberian influence and expert analysis to this latest Euro 2012 live blog, HuffPost Sports will be viewing the game alongside noted soccer writer Jimmy Burns at the Centro Espanol in New York City. The author of La Roja: How Soccer Conquered Spain and How Spanish Soccer Conquered the World (Nation Books), Burns will be chiming in with insights throughout the match.
To join the conversation, tweet @HuffPostSports or @HuffPostBooks.
|@ AnfieldCat : Bruno Alves an inch from glory, Fabregas an inch from disaster. The smallest of margins that separate winning & losing! #Euro2012
Germany and Italy meet on Thursday in the other semifinal. Both likely fancy themselves a sterner test for Spain than Portugal. For Portugal, this must feel like an opportunity lost. They took the action to Spain, defending high up the field and grabbing an impressive amount of possession (near 45% for much of the match).
|@ JacobHester22 : You can't justify Cristiano Ronaldo not taking one of the penalty kicks in the Semi Finals of the Euro's. He's your BEST player!!
|@ SInow : Cristiano Ronaldo shockingly doesn't even have the chance to step up and take a penalty kick. #euro2012
|@ JOE_Toombs : Well Cristiano Ronaldo can only blame himself. He should have taken a penalty before any other Portuguese player did!! #Euro2012
Ronaldo never had to (or got to) factor in to the penalty shootout.
Cesc's shot banged off the left post and bounced into the net. He runs to his teammates as ESPANA is chanted here at Centro Espanol.
He can book a place in the final and HE DOES!
And his missile comes off the bar! Jimmy Burns is dancing with the fans at Centro Espanol.
Groans then applause from Spanish fans here. He scores with a chip after Patricio dives.
Nani comes trotting down and goes high into the net after a stutter step.
No doubt to left corner.
And Portugal score.
Epic leaping save to his right and then Iniesta comes through. Spain lead, 1-0.
Spain kicks first. And he is denied! Patricio puts it off the post. Brilliant!
Ronaldo with words of advice for Patricio.
One is the best in the world but the other has been tested tonight.
|@ SoccerInsider : 52 fouls, 9 cautions, 7 shots on target, 0 goals. PKs await. #euro2012
We're heading to penalties with a spot in the final on the line.
The latest attack founders as Spain look to pass the ball into the net. That said, they are relentless now.
"I think this is the best 15 minutes that Spain has played in the tournament," according to resident expert Jimmy Burns.
Spain threatening with some nice interplay on the left but Fabregas is offside.
Penalities! shouts an overexcited Spaniard. "no, no, 120 minutes not 115" corrects his friend.
A cross into a crowd in front of Portuguese net goes untouched. Torres sitting tall on the sideline.
But it's undone despite seeming to have the space and the time. Would Torres have finished what Pedro lost in the crowd?
With Meireles coming off, slowly, it looks like Portugal has itself set on on penalties.
"Portugal are settling for the shootout, while spain are pushing for the goal."
Spain goes close again as Navas fires low on target but Patricio saves. The deflection comes out to Pepe. It hits his foot but jumps on it. That was not a pass back to the keeper but certainly it could be viewed that way through roja-tinted glasses.
Ronaldo loses a 1-1 collision with Ramos and Spain pushes ahead. But the Madrid man stays down, writhing around. Spain put the ball out. Attack halted. Unkind things are said by many in red about Ronaldo's ethics, manhood, etc.
"This game, we're going to win" they're chanting at the Centro Espanol.

4 Warning Signs that You're in Need of Cloud Management Software
Sprawling Infrastructure
If you are a cloud provider that has multiple data centers or cloud zones, for example infrastructure in a primary and secondary location, it is imperative that you have cloud management software. You cant always control sprawling infrastructure, especially if your business model requires you to maintain multiple zones, but you can take steps to make the environment more conducive from an administrative user experience. Compared to methods that require you to manage each zone individually, a cloud management platform can aggregate your data so that they can all me managed from a central location. This allows you to have monitoring and management teams in a central location and facilitates a simplified process.
In the same line of thought, federated clouds are also good candidates for a cloud management platform. Since you may not have control of the infrastructure on which your software is hosted at the federated zone, it makes sense to have a management platform that can bring data to your technical staff, regardless of where they are. Although you dont have control over the infrastructure, you still have total authority over the software component. Cloud management software helps you take charge and provide an optimum cloud environment for your end users.
Unable to Meet Policy and Governance Requirements
Cloud management allows you to measure cloud cost and revenue for your business to lend a full picture of how your business as a whole is benefitting from cloud services. Reports can be created on a schedule or manually, and allow you to see how your cloud is performing overall. This gives you educated insight into how you can improve your cloud and where it is exceeding end user expectations.
In addition to the benefit of creating reports, cloud management will also help you monitor your cloud. Appropriate monitoring is a way to actively identify potential issues as they arise. Monitoring will allow you to respond to these potential issues and correct them before they become an issue for your end users. Cloud management will also allow you to aggregate monitoring and reporting to further facilitate streamlined usage for both IT staff and end users, which includes alerts.
Lack of Automation
The automation component of a cloud management platform enables on demand scalability of your cloud environment for end users by reducing the manual processes necessary to deploy resources, a feature that is necessary to provide cloud as a service. As your customers enter busy seasons, the amount of compute resources they have access to is not limited in any way. This enables them to utilize as many resources as they need during peak seasons and then scale back so they are not paying for under utilized resources during off seasons.
Provisioning and de-provisioning by individual end users can also be accomplished through cloud management by continuing to reduce the necessary manual processes. Again coupled with automation, you can set up your cloud environment so the end users can spin up servers and virtual machines on demand them without assistance from your technical staff. This helps you conserve resources and is an added benefit for end users.
Continuous System Failures
If you are currently utilizing a monitoring system, but receive continual error reports, this is a clear indicator that you need cloud management. A cloud management system will allow you to compensate for these errors by identifying and helping you correct them before they become an issue. It can also help you plan a backup solution for your business and your end users.
Allocating space using cloud management and including redundancy will give you the resources you need to include a backup solution, which is another selling point for potential customers. Cloud management systems will also let you know when you need to upgrade your hardware to continue accommodating for your end users servers. This is a valuable addition to your environment because it will help you avoid overload issues.
There are many indicators that you cloud need cloud management software. These are just the surface, but huge issues that could affect not only your cloud environment, but also your end users. A cloud management solution is a valuable resource that every cloud provider should have in place to provide an optimized end user experience. Take time now to assess the benefits it can provide and give your customers the environment they deserve.

You Can Only See This Beautiful Street Art If You Have The Right Perspective
Germany's Zebrating creates lovely portraits that are hidden in plain sight.
The clandestine street artist duo known as Zebrating (it means "making the zebra") has found an unusual kind of canvas around their native Germany: railings. From one angle, their work may look like abstract designs and splotches of paint. But stand in the right place, and you see their work morph into highly life-like portraits.
"We want people to go with open eyes through the streets," wrote the artists via email. "Our art is very unobtrusive and not everyone has immediate access to it." Meaning that you have to know where—and how—to look.
Each design takes up to 15 hours to complete and is either painted directly onto the railings or applied to paper in advance and then glued to the rails in strips. Zebrating uses trigonometry to get the perspective and optical distortions just right. "We survey and measure every railing for weeks before," they say. So if you see a pair of striped snoopers who seem intensely interested in the neighborhood fence, you might be watching Zebrating in the wild.

China's Nine Dash Line and the Law of the Sea: Kemp
LONDON, June 6 (Reuters) – Territorial disputes over tiny
islands and reefs in the South China Sea are poisoning relations
between China and its neighbours in Southeast Asia.
"In recent months, China has undertaken destabilising,
unilateral actions asserting its claims in the South China Sea,"
U.S. Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel told an audience in Singapore
last month.
U.S. EPA goes (relatively) easy on coal: Kemp
LONDON, June 4 (Reuters) – Despite the heated war of words
between supporters of the coal industry and environmentalists,
the Obama administration's Clean Power Plan is relatively
generous to coal interests.
By carefully selecting the baseline against which emission
reductions will be measured and giving states a long period to
come into compliance, the proposed rule is much less radical
than it appears.
U.S. refiners struggle with too much light crude: Kemp
LONDON, June 2 (Reuters) – Most of the extra oil produced in
the United States in the next two years will be light crudes and
condensates that domestic refineries will struggle to process –
intensifying pressure for at least a partial relaxation of the
country's export ban.
U.S. oil production is set to increase by another 2 million
barrels per day in 2014-15. More than 60 percent of the forecast
growth will consist of light oils with a specific gravity of 40
degrees API or higher, according to the U.S. Energy Information
Administration ("U.S. crude oil production forecast: analysis of
crude types", May 29).
For polluted China, gas is a matter of life or death: Kemp
LONDON, May 21 (Reuters) – "If I work in your Beijing, I
would shorten my life at least five years," Premier Zhu Rongji,
a career politician from Shanghai, quipped in 1999, referring to
the notorious air pollution in China's northern capital.
Research has confirmed life expectancy in northern China is
5.5 years shorter than in the south owing to the worse air
pollution, and the shocking difference stems from a
well-intentioned government policy to keep the residents of
northern China warm in winter.
Russia and China ready for deal on energy: Kemp
LONDON, May 19 (Reuters) – "China is our reliable friend,"
Russian President Vladimir Putin said on Monday in an interview
ahead of a conference in Shanghai. "To expand cooperation with
China is undoubtedly Russia's diplomatic priority."
Most evaluations of the bilateral relationship begin by
reciting the historical border disputes, rift between Mao Zedong
and Nikita Khrushchev, opening to China by Richard Nixon, and
the perennial problem of reaching an agreement on gas pricing.
Money to burn: OPEC's wasteful energy subsidies: Kemp
LONDON, May 16 (Reuters) – Fossil fuel subsidies cost
governments in emerging markets more than $500 billion every
year and are a major contributor to climate change, according to
the International Energy Agency (IEA) and International Monetary
Fund (IMF).
The biggest subsidies are concentrated in the Middle East,
North Africa, Asia and parts of Latin America, according to the
IEA's Fossil Fuel Subsidy Database (www.iea.org/subsidy/index.html).
U.S. coal falls victim to stagnating electricity demand: Kemp
LONDON, May 14 (Reuters) – U.S. electricity consumption has
remained flat for the last six years, the first such prolonged
pause in growth, as recession and improvements in efficiency
have bitten deeply into demand.
Homes, schools, offices and factories consumed a total of
3,831 billion kilowatt-hours of electricity in 2013, basically
unchanged from the 3,816 billion in 2006, and well down from the
record 3,890 billion in 2007, according to the Energy
Information Administration (EIA) (Chart 1).
Frack the future: Britain's onshore oil, gas quest is on: Kemp
LONDON, May 12 (Reuters) – They were crazy dreamers who
dared to believe that oil and gas could be produced from beneath
England's rolling green hills.
Small companies such as Alkane, Egdon,
Cuadrilla, Dart, Island Gas, Newton and Star
bid for and won Petroleum Exploration and Development Licences
(PEDLs) in Britain's 13th onshore licensing round held back in
Oklahoma earthquakes linked to oil and gas production: Kemp
LONDON, May 9 (Reuters) – Central Oklahoma faces a
significantly increased risk of a damaging earthquake, and the
threat is probably related to oil and gas extraction, the U.S.
Geological Survey warned on Monday.
"As a result of the increased number of small and moderate
shocks, the likelihood of future, damaging earthquakes has
increased for central and north-central Oklahoma," USGS said.
Dire strait, why Asia must prepare for an oil shock: Kemp
LONDON, May 8 (Reuters) – Asia is more at risk from any
disruption to Middle East oil supplies than Europe or the United
States but is less prepared to deal with such a scenario,
according to a new report from Britain's Royal Institute of
International Affairs.
The Chatham House study provides a wealth of detail on the
physical flow of oil from the Middle East to Asia and the threat
of an interruption.

It was a lot quieter Sunday night outside James Taylor's Mecosta County home than it was just hours before. Taylor, 20, calls the farm house that's been in the family for 100 years his party house.
Taylor said Saturday night started out as a planned birthday party for a friend, but it quickly grew to more than 2,000 people.
Here are some highlights from the interview.
You can see the full story here. I highly recommend you click the link.
This kid is priceless, and spot on with his comments and assessment of the party. Plus, it's nice hear someone say they're willing to accept responsibility for anything they may have done wrong. I just hope he's not held responsible for other people's poor decisions. After all, he didn't invite everybody that showed up. Besides, how is he responsible for the decisions of 2,000 people?
Regardless, I count this as one of the greatest moments in live TV news. Party on, dude!
