This plant looks like a slightly refined Fritillaria imperialis. It's growing well on a sand mound covered with rocks in a low-water area of my garden. Other plants that like the same conditions: Agave spp, Penstemon palmeri, Achillea 'Moonbeam', Perovskia cvs., Eremurus stenophylla. It took an extra year to settle in before blooming.

This, coupled with an intense bitterness, leads to an excellent long, dry finish. Probably the beer to receive the most awards in Britain!
Summer Lightning has an ABV of 5%

China Stocks Rise, Trimming Weekly Loss; Property Shares Gain
China's stocks advanced, paring a weekly loss, as property developers rebounded on speculation policymakers will continue to support the industry and economic growth may be sufficient to sustain prices.
China Vanke Co. rose 1.3 percent after Radio Television Hong Kong cited the developer as saying it won't cut home prices nationwide this month. UFIDA Software Co. paced gains for technology stocks for a second day, the biggest advance among industry groups on the CSI 300 Index. Jiangxi Copper Co. led declines for mining stocks, limiting the market's gains, after the world's two largest copper producers warned of lower demand for the metal because of China's plans to curb its economy.
"Signs that Chinese growth is coming off the boil are causing concern but note this is exactly what the Chinese authorities are looking for," said Shane Oliver, head of investment strategy at AMP Capital Investors, which manages $90 billion in assets. "It's likely that China will soon be able to ease up on its tightening measures."
The Shanghai Composite Index, which tracks the bigger of China's stock exchanges, added 0.94, or less than 0.1 percent, to 2,553.59 at the close. About two stocks rose for each one that fell on the measure. The CSI 300 Index added 0.3 percent to 2,744.39.
The Shanghai index has lost 3.8 percent this week, adding to a 22 percent decline for the year, on concern growth will slow as the housing market cools and Europe's debt crisis threatens China's exports. Equities also fell this week on concern that a property tax will be imposed after record growth in prices in April and as manufacturing expansion slowed in May.
Property Outlook
Vanke, the nation's biggest listed property developer, rose 1.3 percent to 7.28 yuan. Poly Real Estate Group Co., the second-largest, gained 1.8 percent to 10.91 yuan. Gemdale Corp., the fourth-largest, advanced 2.2 percent to 6.59 yuan.
It's not yet time for China to discuss reducing or stopping policy support for the nation's real estate industry, the Securities Times reported, citing Li Fuan, head of the China Banking Regulatory Commission's department of banking innovation.
The real estate industry will continue to be an important pillar of China's economy in the next 20 to 30 years, it said. Banks should pick "good developers" and continue to provide them with financing, Li was cited as saying.
China's economy will expand between 9 percent and 10 percent in 2010 after an "overheated" first quarter, World Bank chief economist Justin Lin said.
"Growth in the first quarter is a bit overheated so it would be good that the growth slows a little," Lin said today in an interview during an economic conference in Busan, South Korea. "There is no problem" for China to maintain "9 percent to 10 percent growth," he said.
Technology Gains
RBC Capital Markets said interest-rate increases may be delayed if upcoming data shows more slowing in the economy. Still, China needs to tighten policy further to reduce overheating risks and contain inflation, it said in a note.
UFIDA Software added 2.7 percent to 21.87 yuan, extending a gain of 6.4 percent yesterday. China National Software & Service Co. jumped by the 10 percent daily limit for a second day, rising to 21.37 yuan. The technology index in the CSI 300 advanced 1.9 percent, the most among the 10 industry groups.
The government will seek to promote electronic commerce, education, networking services and other software applications, Li Yizhong, the head of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology said in a speech posted on its website yesterday.
'Volatile' Copper
The copper market will be "volatile" for as much as another year after China took measures to cool its property market, Codelco Chief Executive Officer Diego Hernandez said yesterday in an interview. The Asian nation is a "risk to the world's market place in the near term," Freeport-McMoran Copper & Gold Inc. CEO Richard Adkerson said in an interview.
Jiangxi Copper, China's biggest producer of the metal, retreated 0.4 percent to 28.40 yuan. Tongling Nonferrous Metals Group Co., the second largest, lost 1.6 percent to 16.43 yuan. Baoshan Steel, the listed unit of the second-biggest steelmaker, slid 1.1 percent to 6.21 yuan. Copper prices lost 3.1 percent in New York yesterday.
Chinese policy makers are trimming stimulus measures this year after a $1.4 trillion lending binge revived growth in 2009 Officials are targeting a 22 percent reduction in new loans and have sold bills and raised banks' reserve requirements to suck money out of the financial system.
More provinces and cities in China will raise minimum wage levels in the coming weeks by about 20 percent, according to Deutsche Bank AG analysts Jun Ma and Wenjie Lu.
Higher Wages
"A faster-than-expected labor cost increase has now become a political imperative," the analysts wrote. They estimate that a 10 percent gain in wages in labor-intensive sectors will push up consumer-price inflation by 0.4 percent and reduce employment by 700,000 jobs.
Foreign companies that have operations in China such as Hon Hai Precision Industry Co. will boost wages by 30 percent after a series of suicides while Honda Motor Co. resumed production after most of a Chinese parts factory's workers accepted a higher pay offer.
China's CSI 300 may find "strong fundamental support" at around 2,500 as stock valuations price in a "harsh earnings growth" scenario, Goldman Sachs Group Inc. said.
The probability of the scenario, which involves earnings-per-share growth for A shares declining to the "low teens" this year and to a low single digit in 2011, is "low," analysts Kinger Lau and Timothy Moe wrote in a report today.
The following companies were among the most active in China's markets. Stock symbols are in brackets after companies' names.
Industrial Bank Co. (601166 CH), backed by a HSBC Holdings Plc unit, dropped 1.6 percent to 24.15 yuan after saying 992.45 million shares will become tradable on June 8 after a rights offer June 2.
Jiangnan Heavy Industry Co. (600072 CH) surged 6.7 percent to 13.42 yuan, the most in almost nine months, after saying it will distribute one bonus share for every 10 shares held.

EL PASO - Slightly more than a decade ago, Hope Jackson, then a lieutenant colonel in the Army, was serving in the Middle East and entertaining thoughts of retiring to her native Florida after 25 years in the military.
Instead, Ms. Jackson, 49, finds herself in the middle of the West Texas desert, overseeing the renovation of a three-bedroom house that will be a shelter this fall for as many as 12 homeless veterans.
Carrying a child's enthusiasm and few regrets about how her fate has changed, Ms. Jackson said she was doing what her faith dictates she should. "God spoke to me," she explained. "He said he wanted me to take care of his children."
The children, Ms. Jackson said, are female veterans who have served their country honorably but have since fallen on hard times. There was no better place for Ms. Jackson's mission than El Paso, where she returned after her deployment and which is home to Fort Bliss, one of the largest military installations in the country. But as celebrated as veterans are in the city, El Paso lacks resources for homeless female veterans.
Read more about a new homeless shelter with female veterans in mind from the New York Times.

Nope, Konical, I do not have the variable sensor. I bought the thing on eBay and have used it manually. I tried some shots in the house yesterday that were a little overexposed. I figured to do the bounce next time to check the outcomes. It has been a reliable unit, but I have not used it enough to perfect it for my needs. Now that I have a decent amount of film, I will play around with it a little more.
I wonder if I could find a reliable sensor on eBay for a modest price. There is a website that sells the manual. Peharps, I ought to try that.
Thanks for your response. Rusty

Sound it Out # 66: Tokyo Police Club - "Hot Tonight" (free MP3)
I must apologize in advance. This song is going to stick in your head, and it's not going to leave you alone for a long time. It has wormed its way into my brain and literally kept me awake at night.
Toronto indie band Tokyo Police Club has always shown a strong a pop sensibility, but they've written a hit song of boy-band proportions with "Hot Tonight." It's the first single from their upcoming album Forcefield, most of which is rougher around the edges than this glossy ditty. You can pre-order the record at their Pledge Music page along with a bunch of fan-pleasing bundles.
We have a free download of "Hot Tonight" for two days only. Listen at your own risk.

I'm really exited to announce that today we released the Technical Preview of the IIS Admin Pack and it includes 7 new features for IIS Manager that will help you in a bunch of different scenarios.
You can download the IIS 7.0 Admin Pack Technical Preview from (It requires less than 1MB):
(x86) http://www.iis.net/downloads/default.aspx?tabid=34&g=6&i=1646 (x64) http://www.iis.net/downloads/default.aspx?tabid=34&g=6&i=1647
These UI modules include the following features:
Please, help us, we want to ask for your help on trying them and give us feedback of all these modules, do they work for you? what would you change? what would you add? What features are we missing?
Some things to think about,
Database Manager, what other database features are critical for you to build applications?
IIS Reports set of reports, what reports would you find useful?, would you want to have Configuration based reports (such as summarizing the Sites and their configuration, which configuration)? More Security Reports (such as)?
Configuration Editor, is it easy to use?, what concepts from configuration would you like to see?, etc
Given that each individual feature above has a lot of interesting features that can easily be missed, or might be confusing, I will be blogging in the near feature talking about why we decided to build each feature, what makes them different from any other thing you've seen as well as how you can make the most out of each of them.
In the past few days I've been reading a bit about SEO and trying to understand more about what makes a Web Site be SEO (Search-Engine-Optimized) and what are some of the typical headaches when trying to achieve that as well as how we can implement them in IIS.
Today I decided to post how you can make your Web Site running IIS 7.0 a bit "friendlier" to Search Engines without having to modify any code in your application. Being SEO is a big statement since it can include several things, so for now I will scope the discussion to 3 things that can be easily addressed using the IIS URL Rewrite Module:
Basically the goal of canonicalization is to ensure that the content of a page is only exposed as a unique URI. The reason this is important is because even though for humans it's easy to tell that http://www.carlosag.net is the same as http://carlosag.net, many search engines will not make any assumptions and keep them as two separate entries, potentially splitting the rankings of them lowering their relevance. Another example of this is http://www.carlosag.net/default.aspx and http://www.carlosag.net/. You can certainly minimize the impact of this by writing your application using the canonical forms of your links, for example in your links you can always link to the right content for example: http://www.carlosag.net/tools/webchart/ and remove the default.aspx, however that only accounts for part of the equation since you cannot assume everyone referencing your Web Site will follow this carefully, you cannot control their links.
This is when URL Rewrite comes into play and truly solves this problem.
URL Rewrite can help you redirect when the users type your URL in a way you don't unnecessarily want them to, for example just carlosag.net. Choosing between using WWW or not is a matter of taste but once you choose one you should ensure that you guide everyone to the right one. The following rule will automatically redirect everyone using just carlosag.net to www.carlosag.net. This configuration can be saved in the Web.config file in the root of your Web Site.Note that I'm only including the XML in this blog, however I used IIS Manager to generate all of these settings so you don't need to memorize the XML schema since the UI includes several friendly capabilities to generate all of these..
Note that one important thing is to use Permanent redirects (301) , this will ensure that if anybody links your page using a non-WWW link when the search engine bot crawls their Web Site it will identify the link as permanently moved and it will treat the new URL as the correct address and it will not index the old URL, which is the case when using Temporary (302) redirects. The following shows how the response of the server looks like:
IIS has a feature called Default Document that allows you to specify the content that should be processed when a user enters a URL that is mapped to a directory and not an actual file. In other words, if the user enters http://www.carlosag.net/tools/ then they will actually get the content as if they entered http://www.carlosag.net/tools/default.aspx. That is all great, the problem is that this feature only works one way by mapping a Directory to a File, however it does not map the File to the Document, this means that if some of your links or other users enter the full URL, then search engines will see two different URL's. To solve that problem we can use a configuration very similar to the rule above, following is a rule that will redirect the default.aspx to the canonical URL (the folder).
This again, uses a Permanent redirect to extract everything before Default.aspx and redirect it to the "parent" URL path, so for example, if the user enters http://www.carlosag.net/Tools/WindowsLiveWriter/default.aspx it will be redirected to http://www.carlosag.net/Tools/WindowsLiveWriter/ as well as http://www.carlosag.net/Tools/default.aspx to http://www.carlosag.net/Tools/. You can place this rule at the root of your site and it will take care of all the default documents (if you have a default.aspx in every folder)
Asking your user to remember that www.contoso.com/books.aspx?isbn=0735624410 is the URL for the IIS Resource Kit is not the nicest thing to do, first of all why do they care about this being an ASPX and the fact that it takes arguments and what not. It seems that providing them with a URL like www.contoso.com/books/IISResourceKit will truly resonate with them and be easier for them to remember and pass along. Most importantly it really doesn't tie you to any Web technology.
With URL Rewrite you can easily build this kind of logic automatically without having to modify your code using Rewrite Maps:
The configuration above includes a rule that uses a Rewrite Map to translate a URL like: http://www.contoso.com/books/IISResourceKit into http://www.contoso.com/books.aspx?isbn=0735624410 automatically. Using maps is a very convenient way to have a "table" of values that can be transformed into any other value to be used in the result URL. Of course there are better ways of doing this when using large catalogs or values that change frequently but is extremely useful when you have a consistent set of values or when you can't make changes to an existing application. Note that since we use Rewrite the end users never see the "ugly-URL" unless they knew it already and typed it, and of course this means you can use the inverse approach to ensure the canonicalization is preserved:
The rule above does the "inverse" by matching the URL books.aspx, extracting the ISBN query string value and doing a lookup in the ISBN table and redirecting the client to the canonical URL, so again if user enters http://www.contoso.com/books.aspx?isbn=0735624410 they will be redirected to http://www.contoso.com/books/IISResourceKit.
This Friendly URL to me is more of a user feature than a SEO feature, however I've read in every SEO guide to reduce the number of parameters in your Query String, however, I have not find yet any document that clearly states if there is truly a limit in the search engine bot's that would truly impact the search relevance. I guess it makes sense that they wouldn't keep track of thousands of links to a catalog.aspx that has zillions of permutations based on hundreds of values in the query string (category, department, price range, etc) even if all of them were linked, but again I don't have any prove.
One complex tasks that Web Developers face sometimes is trying to reorganize their current Web Site structure, whether its moving a section to a different path, or something as simple as renaming a single file, you need to take into consideration things like, Is this move a temporary thing?, How do I ensure old clients get the new URL?, How do I prevent losing the search engine relevance?. URL Rewrite will help you perform these tasks.
If you rename a file you can very easily just write a Rewrite or Redirect Rule that ensures that your users continue getting the content. If your intent is to never go back to the old name you should use a Redirect Permanent so everyone starts getting the new content with its new "Canonical URL", however, if this could be a temporary thing you should use a Redirect Temporary. Finally a Rewrite is useful if you still want both URL's to continue to be valid (though this breaks the canonicality).
Another common scenario is when you need to move an entire directory to another place of the Web Site. It could also be that based on some criteria (say Mobile browsers or other User Agent) get a different set of pages/images. Either way, URL rewrite helps with this. The following configuration will redirect every call to the /Images directory to the /NewImages directory.
A related scenario is if you wanted to show different smaller images whenever a user of Windows CE was accessing your site, you could have a "img" directory where all the small images are stored and use a rule like the following:
Note, that in this case the use of Rewrite makes sense since we want the small images to look as the original images to the browser and it will save a "round-trip" to it.
Another common operation is when you randomly need to relocate pages for whatever reason (such as Marketing Campaigns, Branding, etc). In this case if you have several files that have been moved or renamed you can have a single rule that catches all of those and redirects them accordingly. Similarly, another sample could include an incremental migration from one technology to another where say you are moving from Classic ASP to ASP.NET and as you rewrite some of the old ASP pages into ASPX pages you want to start serving them without breaking any links or the search engine relevance.
Now, you can just keep adding to this table any broken link and specify its new address.
Other potential use of URL Rewrite is when using RIA applications in the browser, whether using things like AJAX, Silverlight or Flash, that are not easy to parse and index by search engines, you could use URL Rewrite to rewrite the URL to static HTML versions of your content, however you should make sure that the content is consistent so you don't misguide users and search engines. For example the following rule will rewrite all the files in the RIAFiles table to their static HTML counterpart but only if the User Agent is the MSNBot or the GoogleBot:
Related to this is that you might want to prevent search engines from crawling certain files (or your entire site), for that, you can use the Robots.txt semantics and use a "disallow", however, you can also use URL Rewrite to prevent this with more functionality such as blocking only a specific user agent:
There are several other things you can do to ensure that your Web Site is friendly with Search Engines, however most of them require changes to your application, but certainly worth the effort, for example:
For this entry I read and used some of the resources at several Web Sites, including:
Today there was a question in the IIS.net Forums asking how to expose two different Internet sites from another site making them look like if they were subdirectories in the main site.
So for example the goal was to have a site: www.site.com expose a www.site.com/company1 and a www.site.com/company2 and have the content from "www.company1.com" served for the first one and "www.company2.com" served in the second one. Furthermore we would like to have the responses cached in the server for performance reasons. The following image shows a simple diagram of this:
This sounds easy since its just about routing or proxying every single request to the correct servers, right? Wrong!!! If it only it was that easy. Turns out the most challenging thing is that in this case we are modifying the structure of the underlying URLs and the original layout in the servers which makes relative paths break and of course images, Stylesheets (css), javascripts and other resources are not shown correctly.
To try to clarify this, imagine that a user requests using his browser the page at http://www.site.com/company1/default.aspx, and so based on the specification above the request is proxied/routed to http://www.company1.com/default.aspx on the server-side. So far so good, however, imagine that the markup returned by this HTML turns out to have an image tag like "<img src=/some-image.png />", well the problem is that now the browser will resolve that relative path using the base path on the original request he made which was http://www.site.com/company1/default.aspx resulting in a request for the image at http://www.site.com/some-image.png instead of the right "company1" folder that would be http://www.site.com/company1/some-image.png .
Do you see it? Basically the problem is that any relative path or for that matter absolute paths as well need to be translated to the new URL structure imposed by the original goal.
So how do we do it then?
URL Rewrite 2.0 includes the ability to rewrite the content of a response as it is getting served back to the client which will allow us to rewrite those links without having to touch the actual application.
Software Required:
The first rule is an inbound rewrite rule that basically captures all the requests to the root folder /company1/*, so if using Default Web Site, anything going to http://localhost/company1/* will be matched by this rule and it will rewrite it to www.company1.com respecting the HTTP vs HTTPS traffic.
One thing to highlight which is what took me a bit of time is the "serverVariables" entry in that rule that basically is overwriting the Accept-Encoding header, the reason I do this is because if you do not remove that header then the response will likely be compressed (Gzip or deflate) and Output Rewriting is not supported on that case, and you will end up with an error message like:
HTTP Error 500.52 - URL Rewrite Module Error. Outbound rewrite rules cannot be applied when the content of the HTTP response is encoded ("gzip").
Also note that to be able to use this feature for security reasons you need to explicitly enable this by allowing the server variable. See enabling server variables here.
The last two rules just rewrite the links and scripts and other resources so that the URLs are translated to the right structure. The first one rewrites absolute paths, and the last one rewrites the relative paths. Note that if you use relative paths using ".." this will not work, but you can easily fix the rule above, I was too lazy to do that and since I never use those when I create a site it works for me :)
A huge added value of using ARR is that now we can with a couple of clicks enable disk caching so that the requests are cached locally in the www.site.com, so that not every single request ends up paying the price to go to the backend servers.
As easy as that now you will see caching working and your site will act as a container of other servers in the internet. Pretty cool hah! :)
So in this post we saw how with literally few lines of XML, URL Rewrite and ARR we were able to enable a proxy/routing scenario with the ability to rewrite links and furthermore with caching support.
In this blog we are going to write an example on how to extend the SEO Toolkit functionality, so for that we are going to pretend our company has a large Web site that includes several images, and now we are interested in making sure all of them comply to a certain standard, lets say all of them should be smaller than 1024x768 pixels and that the quality of the images is no less than 16 bits per pixel. Additionally we would also like to be able to make custom queries that can later allow us to further analyze the contents of the images and filter based on directories and more.
For this we will extend the SEO Toolkit crawling process to perform the additional processing for images, we will be adding the following new capabilities:
A crawler module is a class that extends the crawling process in Site Analysis to provide custom functionality while processing each URL. By deriving from this class you can easily raise your own set of violations or add your own data and links to any URL.
It includes three main methods:
Create a Class Library in Visual Studio and add the code shown below.
As you can see in the BeginAnalysis the module registers three new properties with the Report using the Crawler property. This is only required if you want to provide either a custom text or use it for different type other than a string. Note that current version only allows primitive types like Integer, Float, DateTime, etc.
During the Process method it first makes sure that it only runs for known content types, then it performs any validations raising a set of custom violations that are defined in the Violations static helper class. Note that we load the content from the Response Stream, which is the property that contains the received from the server. Note that if you were analyzing text the property Response would contain the content (this is based on Content Type, so HTML, XML, CSS, etc, will be kept in this String property).
When running inside IIS Manager, crawler modules need to be registered as a standard UI module first and then inside their initialization they need to be registered using the IExtensibilityManager interface. In this case to keep the code as simple as possible everything is added in a single file. So add a new file called "RegistrationCode.cs" and include the contents below:
This code defines a standard UI IIS Manager module and in its client-side initialize method it uses the IExtensibilityManager interface to register the new instance of the Image extension. This will make it visible to the Site Analysis feature.
To test it we need to add the UI module to Administration.config, that also means that the assembly needs to be registered in the GAC.
To Strongly name the assembly
In Visual Studio, you can do this easily by using the menu "Project->Properties", and select the "Signing" tab, check the "Sign the assembly", and choose a file, if you don't have one you can easily just choose New and specify a name.
After this you can compile and now should be able to add it to the GAC.
To GAC it
If you have the SDK's you should be able to call it like in my case:
"\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v6.0A\bin\gacutil.exe" /if SampleCrawlerModule.dll
(Note, you could also just open Windows Explorer, navigate to c:\Windows\assembly and drag & drop your file in there, that will GAC it automatically).
Finally to see the right name that should be use in Administration.config run the following command:
"\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v6.0A\bin\gacutil.exe" /l SampleCrawlerModule
In my case it displays:
SampleCrawlerModule, Version=22.214.171.124, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=6f4d9863e5b22f10, …
Finally register it in Administration.config
Open Administration.config in Notepad using an elevated instance, find the </moduleProviders> and add a string like the one below but replacing the right values for Version and PublicKeyToken:
After registration you now should be able to launch IIS Manager and navigate to Search Engine Optimization. Start a new Analysis to your Web site. Once completed if there are any violations you will see them correctly in the Violations Summary or any other report. For example see below all the violations in the "Images" category.
Since we also extended the metadata by including the new fields (Image Width, Image Height, and Image Pixel Format) now you can use them with the Query infrastructure to easily create a report of all the images:
And since they are standard fields, they can be used in Filters, Groups, and any other functionality, including exporting data. So for example the following query can be opened in the Site Analysis feature and will display an average of the width and height of images summarized by type of image:
And of course violation details are shown as specified, including Recommendation, Description, etc:
As you can see extending the SEO Toolkit using a Crawler Module allows you to provide additional information, whether Metadata, Violations or Links to any document being processed. This can be used to add support for content types not supported out-of-the box such as PDF, Office Documents or anything else that you need. It also can be used to extend the metadata by writing custom code to wire data from other system into the report giving you the ability to exploit this data using the Query capabilities of Site Analysis.
Today we are releasing the IIS Search Engine Optimization Toolkit. The IIS SEO Toolkit is a set of features that aim to help you keep your Web site and its content in good shape for both Users and Search Engines.
The features that are included in this Beta release include:
Checkout the great blog about IIS SEO Toolkit by ScottGu, or this IIS SEO simple video of some of its capabilities.
One of the problems with many similar tools out there is that they require you to publish the updates to your production sites before you can even use the tools, and of course would never be usable for Intranet or internal applications that are not exposed to the Web. The IIS Search Engine Optimization Toolkit can be used internally in your own development or staging environments giving you the ability to clean up the content before publishing to the Web. This way your users do not need to pay the price of broken links once you publish to the Web and you will not need to wait for those tools or Search Engines to crawl your site to finally discover you broke things.
For developers this means that they can now easily look at the potential impact of removing or renaming a file, easily check which files are referring to this page and which files he can remove because of only being referenced by this page.
One thing that is important to clarify is that you can target and analyze your production sites if you want to, and you can target Web applications running in any platform, whether its ASP.NET, PHP, or plain HTML text files running in your local IIS or on any other remote server.
Bottom line, try it against your Web site, look at the different features and give us feedback for additional reports, options, violations, content to parse, etc, post any comments or questions at the IIS Search Engine Optimization Forum.
The IIS SEO Toolkit documentation can be found at http://learn.iis.net/page.aspx/639/using-iis-search-engine-optimization-toolkit/, but remember this is only Beta 1 so we will be adding more features and content.
The other day I was asked if I knew about a tool that would allow users to easily analyze the IIS Log Files, to process and look for specific data that could easily be automated. My recommendation was that if they were comfortable with using a SQL-like language that they should use Log Parser. Log Parser is a very powerful tool that provides a generic SQL-like language on top of many types of data like IIS Logs, Event Viewer entries, XML files, CSV files, File System and others; and it allows you to export the result of the queries to many output formats such as CSV (Comma-Separated Values, etc), XML, SQL Server, Charts and others; and it works well with IIS 5, 6, 7 and 7.5.
To use it you just need to install it and use the LogParser.exe that is found in its installation directory (on my x64 machine it is located at: C:\Program Files (x86)\Log Parser 2.2).
I also thought on sharing some of my favorite queries. To run them, just execute LogParser.exe and make sure to specify that the input is an IIS Log file (-i:W3C) and for ease of use in this case we will export to a CSV file that can be then opened in Excel (-o:CSV) for further analysis:
A final note: any time you deal with Date and Time, remember to use the TO_LOCALTIME function to convert the log times to your local time, otherwise you will find it very confusing when your entries seem to be reported incorrectly.
If you need any help you can always visit the Log Parser Forums to find more information or ask specific questions.
Any other useful queries I missed?
Today we are releasing the Technical Preview 2 of the IIS Admin Pack, it is an update of the release we made on February.

My touring bike has a DualDrive 3x9 with SRAM DualDrive, single 46T 110mm Suginu chainring, ERTO 406 Kojak wheels and SRAM pc951 chain. This results in a gear inch range of 19.6 to 106.
I would to move down the range by changing the chainring from 46T to 40T. I found on Amazon several 40T 110mm chainrings but am not sure which will be the best fit my bike and what are the differences between them, quality wise:
Any suggestion? Will any 40T 110mm chainring fit my bike? Does the quality of the chainring matter (I dont have FD if it makes a difference) or are they all the same?
Also, how much should I shorten the chain when going from 46T to 40T?

"Everybody feels a way about 'Ye, but at least you feel something." Well, if nothing else, Kanye West will probably be the most talked-about person at any awards show he attends.
As the entire world knows by now, Kanye jumped onstage and grabbed the mic from Taylor Swift during her acceptance speech for Best Female Video. 'Ye was livid that Beyoncé did not win the award and felt he needed to get up there and speak his mind.
Thousands upon thousands wrote to us and left comments on the site — and most people did not support Kanye's actions.
Reader Model4fashion wrote, "What an a–hole. Every time there is a big event the cry baby has to make a scene to highlight himself at all costs, then he runs away and apologizes electronically. Loser! I'm so done with his music, he has lost my support all together. There is nothing he can do for me to like him! Big ups to Beyoncé for being real and professional … maybe she should show cry baby the ropes, which the first lesson in life is shut your mouth!"
During the show, performer Katy Perry took to Twitter and posted my personal nominee for tweet of the year thus far: "'F— you Kanye. It's like you stepped on a kitten."
Did Kanye go too far this time? And if so, can he recover? Well, my feelings on the matter are that Kanye shouldn't have gotten on the stage. He agrees, though, and apologized on his Web site . However, that forum might have been the best place to express his displeasure with Beyoncé's loss — that's what it really was about. Not so much about Taylor Swift winning, but Beyoncé losing. Rahman Dukes and I feel he'll definitely recover from this.
The 2009 MTV Video Music Awards might have wrapped, but the party is far from over. Stay tuned for behind-the-scenes updates, party reports and much more.

No - all my ECI is held in one account - that is why it seems odd to get a last minute additional yellow proxy vote by FedEx. Octavian must really want this - I just voted yesterday so wondering if they are tracking and willing to pay the extra FedEx costs to grab the attention of those share holders who had not voted yet.
As far as I am concerned, ECI has done most things the right way considering market they have had to deal with the last 4-5 years. My bets are on the turtle.

Primetime Emmy Awards: The Best of the Backs
by Fashion
Like us on Facebook
In everyday life, people don't really get to show of their backs. But come red carpet time, you know the pose, the one with the gaze across the shoulder and the come hither look. I wonder if these girls practiced in front of the mirror to provide optimal back exposure photo ops. I bet they did. And it shows! I indeed have back envy, but who had the best of the backs at the Emmys?

I've heard several stories about her, but I never believed them. I thought they were just a bunch of comic book groupies trying to convince the world and themselves that superheroes were real, not that she's a superhero, more of a vigilante I'd say.
These stories seemed impossible until a few days ago when I met her myself.
As I left the office, walking home as I normally do, a dark car flew past the sidewalk. I thought to myself, It's idiots like that that cause car accidents, just as I heard the crash. My head spun in the direction of the sound when I saw her standing there in the middle of the street, guitar in hand and the car smashed into a nearby light post so bad you couldn't tell where the car ended and the light post began.
I started to run towards the accident when the driver, a tall, clearly strong man, emerged from the car and began to run towards her with that look in his eye that any person would fear.
But she didn't. Before he could reach her, she began to play her guitar, and the man froze instantly. The gun, which I hadn't noticed up until this point, fell from his right hand to the ground, as did the bag in the left hand.
The sirens grew louder and once they were in sight she began to creep from the middle of the street to the sidewalk, leaving the man, the gun, and the bag to be handled by the police. As they surrounded him, she stopped playing and ran, only slowing down when she saw me. She didn't say anything, only looked at me with a look I'll never forget.
The next day someone I worked with asked if I had heard about the robbers that were arrested...

John Stamos' 50th birthday was a milestone that "Full House" cast members didn't want to miss! The actor was joined by Ashley Olsen, Lori Loughlin, Bob Saget and more of his '90s TV star pals to celebrate his half century on Earth with a party on Monday.
A source tells Us Weekly that Stamos, who officially turned 50 on Aug. 19, threw a huge party at the Sunset Tower Hotel in Hollywood, Calif., with approximately 200 guests. The birthday boy was also roasted at the bash by Saget, Don Rickles and Jeff Ross.
PHOTOS: '90s stars then and now
On Tuesday, Loughlin, 49, shared a photo of herself posing with Saget, 57, and tweeted, "@bobsaget was the perfect emcee last night. Hysterically funny as always! #johnstamosbdaybash."
The actress, who played Stamos' character Jesse Katsopolis' wife, Becky, on "Full House," also tweeted a photo with former co-star Olsen. "I had a great time hanging with Ashley last night!" she captioned the shot of them sharing an embrace. "Such a beauty inside and out." Olsen, 27, who starred as the lovable Michelle Tanner with twin sister Mary-Kate Olsen, wore a black dress; Loughlin wore white.
Candace Cameron Bure, who played Olsen's older sister D.J. Tanner, also attended the party and posed for a photo with Stamos (Uncle Jesse) and Saget (Dad Danny Tanner). "Family Forever #johnstamos50 @johnstamos @bobsaget #RatPackTheme," Bure, 37, wrote for the caption of them all dressed up in black-tie attire.
An insider tells Us that Priscilla Presley also stopped by the b-day bash, along with guests including Kristin Chenoweth, "Glee" star Darren Criss, Johnny Knoxville, Kristin Davis and Nia Vardalos. Performers included Tom Jones and The Beach Boys (Stamos played the drums on the 1988 video for the group's hit "Kokomo"). "It was a crazy event," the source said. "It ended at 12:30 a.m. and then they had an after party in the penthouse of the hotel."
To remember the night, guests were photographed for @polaroidfotobar. Stamos posed for a special Polaroid Fotobar with his mom, Loretta Stamos.
PHOTOS: Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen through the years
The birthday boy reportedly attended the event solo, but was seen mingling with some of his female guests. Stamos tweeted Tuesday, "I literally had the greatest night of my life last night --- MTCAN (more to come after nappy)."
Fashion face-off: Mary Kate vs. Ashley
For John Stamos, is Lori the "one that got away"?

Coulson Says He Knew of Phone Hacking Only in 'Vague Terms'
Andy Coulson, the former editor of News Corp.'s News of the World, said he was aware phone hacking existed in "vague terms" as he denied any knowledge of the interception of a murdered school girl's messages that led to the closure of the tabloid nearly a decade later.
Coulson, testifying for a second day at the London trial over alleged wrongdoing at the publisher's U.K. tabloids, said he wasn't aware of a plan by journalists to hack the phone of Milly Dowler in 2002.
"I was aware of it in very vague terms of phone hacking in 2002," Coulson, who later became a media adviser to Prime Minister David Cameron, said today. "It was in the ether" and was "gossiped about, maybe." He also said he didn't know that accessing voice mails was a crime in 2002.
Coulson, 46, is one of seven people on trial for a variety of wrongdoing at News Corp.'s U.K. newspapers, including phone hacking and bribing public officials. The discovery in 2011 that Dowler's messages had been intercepted sparked a national scandal that led to the closure of the tabloid and forced News Corp. to drop a bid to buy British Sky Broadcasting Group Plc.
Coulson, the deputy editor of the News of the World in 2002, was in charge of the newspaper the week the paper carried a story about messages on the 13-year-old Dowler's phone. Rebekah Brooks, another defendant in the case who was then the editor of the weekly tabloid, was on vacation.
Prank Caller
The weekly tabloid published a story on Sunday, April 14, 2002, saying a recruitment agency left a message on Dowler's phone offering her a job. The quote was removed from later editions after police told the newspaper it was a hoax from a prank caller, prosecutors said earlier in the trial.
Coulson said that he had discounted the possibility of a Dowler being offered a job.
"It was nonsense because Milly Dowler was a 13-year-old girl," he said. "The idea that she could walk into a factory and take a job just seems ludicrous to me."
He said that had he known about the attempt to listen to the girl's messages, he would have been "concerned."
"My instinctive concern would have been that this was interference in a police investigation."
Coulson also said that he didn't have any conversation with Brooks about the Dowler article when she returned from holiday.
Under questioning from his lawyer, Timothy Langdale, Coulson said that he thought phone hacking was a lazy method of reporting.
Intrusive, Lazy
"I would have thought it was intrusive," Coulson said. "That it was a breach of privacy and I also would have thought that it was lazy."
Under more questioning, Coulson said that he didn't know about the practice in any "detail."
"I presumed it was to do with voice-mail messages," he said. "I think I knew, possibly heard, that it was to do with access to these voice mails via pin codes, that people have default pin codes and therefore they could be accessed."
During testimony yesterday, Coulson said that an affair between him and Brooks that ended in 2004 caused pain to many people, including his wife. Prosecutors say the extra-marital relationship was a sign of the close collaboration between the pair in their personal and professional lives.
Brooks later became head of News Corp.'s U.K. unit before stepping down at the height of the phone-hacking crisis in July 2011.
Dark Arts
Coulson spoke about the commonly used term "dark arts" and what he thought it meant while he was editor of the weekly tabloid, describing them as "investigative techniques."
Following people, using hidden cameras and occasionally "blagging," would all fall under the term he said.
"'Turning a mobile' or 'spinning a mobile,' these are phrases that I heard during my time as an editor," he said.
"To me it meant getting an address from a phone number or getting a phone number from an address, or vice versa. And I believed there were perfectly legal ways of doing that."
He also said that during his tenure he heard the term "phone traffic," which means gleaning information from phone bills.
"At the time I didn't give it enough thought," he said. "I can't sit here in 2014 and say that there was never a mention of phone traffic at the News of the World because I think there quite likely was.
''I think that's an area I certainly should have applied my mind to more. I should have looked at it more, interrogated it more."

Mermaid Heart ~ Pop Up Shop
"She knew some day the sea would call her home."
If your feet are on land but your heart is at sea, have we got something special for you! While we work on integrating Marmlade's website into ours (a process that is a little bit larger than we initially thought…) we are going to be offering these sweet little collections of our favorite things in Pop-Up shops on our Curly Girl website.
I have pulled together some of the most beautiful beachy finds from this season in the shop here for you. Perfect for heading to the shore, or just looking like you did! From sparklers to sequins, slap on that sunscreen and get your summer off to a bright and shiny start.
Hope you love it! xo
It's here! And it's excellent!!
Just a little over a year ago, I wrote here about my good friend Mariam and her passion project. I wrote about how Mariam helped me come into doing and being what I have come to do and be and how exciting it was to watch her do the same.
And how.
Since that post (which was rallying support for her kickstarter!) Good Night Yoga has been picked up by a publisher, and not only has it become a real book, it has become a real success! Holding the #1 spot in Children's Health & Sleep and is currently topping the yoga book charts. (Squeeeeel!)
It is so beautiful, and smart and helpful and kids are so drawn to it and understand it so intuitively, that I am not at all surprised that it is catapulting itself into the hands and hearts of so many!
My kids are currently obsessed with bees, and while a little to young to fully appreciate the flow, LOVE to do 'bee' pose and practice their buzzing breaths.
Each page and line of the poem is accompanied by a pose description and a little reminder to breathe. And can you find the little blue cat on every page? My toddlers can!
My favorite part is the Cloud Journey Visualization at the end of the book. This is SUCH an important and useful tool for helping kids learn to use mindfulness and visualization to help calm themselves and release tension. Being able to self-regulate and tune into what is going on in our minds and bodies is something that is essential to being human, yet rarely do we have great tools for teaching that to our young people.
I cannot say enough great things about this book, and could not be more excited for my friend and teacher, Mariam. This journey is just beginning and I so look forward to what is next! Thanks to those of you who have been a part of it via Kickstarter !! The real win is the energy that comes with so many hearts focused on one thing. The swell is evident.
Buy this book (preferably at your local bookstore or shop… ahem, Marmalalde) or you can find it here. Go ahead and buy a few, because you are going to want to give it to every little person you know. Also, for my shop owner friends, it is FLYING off the shelves at the store! Great addition to your kids section! Email: firstname.lastname@example.com for wholesale info.
If you happen to live in the Boston area, Mariam will be at our shop Marmalade this Thursday 6/18 from 11am – 2pm signing books and answering questions. Please join us!!
Congrats MG! Love you!

The stock photography industry and its ecosystem has changed constantly and dramatically in the past years, both in image creation and clients' approach to licensing images. Thanks to digital cameras, the internet and our favorite keyboard actions 'copy & paste', a whole new crime scene has risen: unauthorized digital image use, or image piracy.
While adapting to market demands, age fotostock is very much aware of the illegal use of images online and we are trying to protect both our photographers rights and the respectful use of images worldwide. With this at heart, we have recently contracted the services of Picscout to help us find unauthorized or non-legitimate uses of our photographers images online. We are able to do this with images submitted by our exclusive photographers only, as we have secure knowledge about their sales history in our records.
PicScout Tracker EtE offers a service that crawls commercial web sites looking for visual matches to content. The image matches that they find might be cropped, colorized, flipped or otherwise manipulated in any way. Their crawler will still find them and does every day. Once they mine the data, they create cases which age fotostock staff review to determine if it is a proper use (licensed) or an unauthorized use. Once staff determine that it's unauthorized or "non-legit", the License Compliance Service team (LCS team) acts on our behalf to track down and collect penalty fees from these infringers, which age fotostock then pays back to our photographers.
Since beginning to crawl for our exclusive images in the USA last month, Picscout have already found hundreds of potential instances of infringement.
It's a really interesting process for staff here. Very few of the cases Picscout are finding are actually valid licenses. Most of the cases have been found in the murky depths of low budget web trash. Some are only low res thumbnail size. Some look like illegitimate reuses – 5 years later and our images are still online, although we haven't had a report since 2009. Other cases appear to be more valid, with large clear images on a respectable website, yet we have no sales history for that image. What will be fascinating is discovering exactly how these companies obtained our images, which thieving tactics did they apply?! All will be revealed in the next few months as we follow the cases through. Stay tuned for the next blog…
age fotostock launched a new look on our website this week! The site, http://www.agefotostock.com, has been designed by in-house age fotostock web designers and programmers in direct response to customer demand for an attractive website where themes, categories, collections and offers are easy to find. Along with the new look, we're introducing two new curated collections, 'SnapMobileFoto' and 'Unconventional'.
Alfonso Gutiérrez, CEO of age fotostock, comments, "We have researched the market and utilized the skills of our in house IT developers and designers to create a new look that is unique, smart and functional, presenting our great variety of content in an manner convenient for clients. We are pleased to offer two new creative and contemporary collections that embrace the growing changes in both visual culture and technology, Unconventional and SnapMobilePhoto. Both collections are increasingly rapidly with a wealth of fresh imagery."
Julieanne Eason, Content Manager, says, "The emphasis on showing our photographers work is an essential part of the age fotostock philosophy. The work of photographers is the basis of the visual culture that the Internet has introduced in our global society. New media has profoundly altered everything, from licensing models to rewarding creativity, and offers new possibilities that photographers need to assimilate. We are facilitating changes in order to present a world of possibilities in which visual creators continue to benefit."
Some highlights of the new website are:
An organized and unique navigation layout, where clients can navigate vertically to search for images by style or themed categories, and navigate horizontally to search by photographer, collection and type of content: image, video, vector or low budget.
Inspiration - the simple produces the marvelous. More than 30.000 inspiring photos.
Unconventional - an offbeat perspective on everyday life. Over 28.000 creative images.
Snapmobilefoto - spontaneous, fresh and fast. More than 4.000 images in a rapidly growing new collection.
Premium - the best of the newest.
All providers collections and photographers content are listed in visual galleries. Discover their work by browsing through their photos and reading their profiles.
We hope you like it!
CEO Alfonso Gutierrez and Content Manager Julieanne Eason will be heading across the ditch to attend the PACA 19th annual conference in central New York this October. Joined by Head of Sales age fotostock USA, Susan Jones, they will be representing age fotostock in a three day bonanza of meetings, seminars and evening events.

Dear Photographers!
age fotostock has been developing a new image collection called SnapMobilefoto: fresh pictures shot with mobile devices.As our CEO Alfonso Gutiérrez explained this last week in Yammer, the private social media platform for age photographers:"It's an opportunity to submit your Smartphone/tablet devices images, your photos made with the electronic tools that we all have at hand and use daily. The collection will be formally announced soon, but before making it public we wanted to share the concept with you, our photographers, so that you can take a part in developing it with us".Mobile device photography calls for a more conceptual and experimental photography rather than the descriptive and straightforward typical shooting style that is abundant. With mobile devices, you have at your fingertips hundreds of filters and shooting possibilities, you are free to be unpredictable and surprising in your personal interpretation of the reality that you have in front of your eyes. Imagine, experiment, change your style, get wild and shoot, shoot, shoot…. Images submitted are currently internally tagged as coming from mobile devices. When this category becomes substantial and popular enough with both photographers and clients, we will launch it as a separated collection.These images can be submitted as RF, and therefore need to have MR/PR´s, or as RM as "editorial use only" when MR/PR´s are not available. We contemplated for months over whether to have an Android or iPhone submissions app that could be accessed by anyone with a smartphone, but as we are not expecting the category becoming an uncontrolled crowd sourced one, we decided to keep to the submission standards that are already in place. When seen online, thumbnails of the images will display the SnapMobilefoto icon, a little camera, on the top right corner.We hope that you will try it out soon. We're looking forward to hear your constructive opinions, and to seeing your on-the fly pics!
