Jack DeWitt (left), who qualified to run for mayor of Boyce, talks with Rapides Parish Police Juror Steve Coco in the Rapides Parish Courthouse on Friday. Coco considered running for Alexandria mayor but changed his mind and did not qualify to run. / Melinda firstname.lastname@example.com
Rapides Parish School Board member Janet Dixon
To see the full list of Cenla qualifiers, visit www.thetowntalk.com, and look under "News Updates." The list will also run in Sunday's Town Talk.
A fifth candidate qualified Friday for the Alexandria mayoral race, but he wasn't the one many expected.
Jay Johnson, a Democrat who serves on the board of commissioners for the Greater Alexandria Economic Development Authority, became the fifth and final candidate to enter the race.
A vocal opponent of Mayor Jacques M. Roy, Johnson has produced two videos about race relations and the city's budget, both of which cast a negative light on Roy's administration.
Attempts to reach Johnson before deadline on Friday were unsuccessful.
Rapides Parish Police Juror Steve Coco, meanwhile, made a last-minute decision not to run for mayor.
Coco had posted on his blog that he planned to be at the Rapides Parish Clerk of Court's Office at 4 p.m. Friday with his qualifying fee. He showed up about 4:25 p.m. and waited before deciding not to enter the race. Friday was the last day for qualifying.
"I thought about it and thought about it and thought about it," said Coco, who said there were many reasons why he opted not to run and admitted there would be some people upset by his decision.
Coco said he received a lot of support and phone calls on Friday urging him to enter the race.
"I considered it to the very last minute," he said. "I even prayed about it, too. With all the support I was offered, the reason I'm not running is probably and seriously divine intervention."
Although he didn't join the race, Coco said he plans to be involved, and he endorsed Roosevelt Johnson, a City Council member who is among the mayoral candidates.
"I think he has the basic attributes needed to be mayor," Coco said of Roosevelt Johnson, who is council president. "I think he's an honest, decent man, and I think you can believe what he says."
Like Coco, local businessman David Pugh gave serious consideration to a run for mayor, but decided the timing wasn't right.
"I'm very interested in public service, giving back to the community, and I would consider in four years the opportunity to help Alexandria," Pugh said.
Pugh is one of two former Cleco Corp. employees who told Alexandria officials that the electricity provider may have defrauded the city and its utility customers. The allegations provided the basis for the city's fraud lawsuit against Cleco, City of Alexandria V. Cleco Corp., filed in June 2005. The case was settled out of court earlier this year when the parties signed a new power-supply contract.
The Alexandria mayoral candidates who will compete in the Oct. 2 primary election are incumbent Jacques Roy and challengers Joseph Franklin, Von Jennings, Jay Johnson and Roosevelt Johnson. The candidates, except for Jay Johnson, qualified Wednesday.
A runoff, if necessary, will be held Nov. 2.
Two Rapides Parish School Board members -- Wilton Barrios Jr. and Janet Dixon -- did not draw opposition, so they were re-elected.
Candidates for various other elected positions showed up to qualify Friday at the Rapides Parish Clerk of Court's Office, as well as at clerks of court offices throughout Central Louisiana.
Rapides Clerk of Court Carolyn Ryland said she believed qualification numbers were up this year, although she said she didn't have any data for comparison. More than 40 candidates qualified the first day, with 22 on what is typically a slow second day on Thursday, and 32 people qualifying on the final day Friday.
"We've had a steady stream for three days," Ryland said.
Two more candidates entered the races for seats on the Alexandria City Council. Jim Villard joined David Harris in challenging incumbent Myron K. Lawson for an at-large council seat, and Mary Wardsworth challenged incumbent Harry Silver in council District 4.
Seven more candidates joined the Rapides Parish School Board races.
-Pete Ferrington and Stanley Miller Sr. filed to challenge incumbent School Board -President Steve Berry in District B.
-Bert O'Neal and Darrell Shawn Poole qualified to run against incumbent Stephen Chapman in District E.
-Cynthia Green Perry filed to challenge incumbent John Allen in District G.
-And Sandra Franklin and Fredell Scott Griffin qualified to challenge incumbent Pam Webb for the District I seat.
Ball Mayor Roy Hebron picked up two challengers, as Sonny Guillot and Bettie Simmons entered the race on Friday.
Three candidates -- Jack DeWitt, Stephan Fontenot and Kelvin McCoy -- joined Elvin Lee Wren in the race for mayor of Boyce, as incumbent Donald Welch decided against running for another term.
In Lecompte, Otis Leonard Payne challenged incumbent Greg Clark in the mayoral race.
Longtime Woodworth Mayor David Butler II was re-elected without opposition.
Qualifying for the Aug. 28 congressional primary elections and Oct. 2 municipal primary elections ended on Friday.

Theres not contradiction in the statement, reread until you understand. If your gov said okay no guns at all youd be pissed, and if they said hey its not a ban its just a restriction, youd be even more pissed.
Morphine does not have the long term negative effects of coc aine, heroin, and much lesser extent marijuana. Any unnecessary pharamceuticals should be removed but the difference is there is some that well actually help people, ie. tylenol, can be abused as well, not as easily though.
My God, how many times do I have to say? Like 4th now? Strict punishment deters crime, strict punishment on stealing and violence. Im just repeating myself, 88% increase was from making stricter possession charges, which I already said should be lessened, you're not even reading my posts, Im done with you.

MEXICO CITY (AP) -- Mexico's Treasury Secretary says the current financial crisis will "undoubtedly" affect Latin America, reducing demand for the commodity exports that have fueled the region's recent boom.
Secretary Agustin Carstens says continued volatility will deflate oil and other commodity prices, boosting investment risk.
He says Latin American countries must continue pushing structural changes to drive internal growth.
Carstens lowered his annual growth forecast for Mexico to 2.5 percent this month.
But he told reporters Monday night that Mexico is well-positioned to weather hard times, in part by boosting public spending.
The U.S. slowdown is slashing remittances, tourism and exports from Mexico, 80 percent of which go to the U.S.

Carl Nolan's ramblings on development
This post explains how best to manage an HDInsight cluster using a management console and Windows PowerShell. The goal is to outline how to create a simple cluster, provide a mechanism for managing an elastic service, and demonstrate how to customize the cluster creation.
Before provisioning a cluster one need to ensure the Azure subscription has been correctly configured and a management station has been setup.
Under the subscription in which the HDInsight is going to be running one needs a storage account defined, and a management certificate uploaded.
Next, under the storage account management create a new default container:
At this point the Azure subscription is ready.
Once the Azure subscription has been configured, the next step is to configure your management environment.
The first step is to install and configure Windows Azure PowerShell. Windows Azure PowerShell is the scripting environment that allows you to control and automate the deployment and management of your workloads in Windows Azure. This includes provisioning virtual machines, setting up virtual networks and cross-premises networks, and managing cloud services in Windows Azure.
To use the cmdlets in Windows Azure PowerShell you will need to download and import the modules, as well as import and configure information that provides connectivity to Windows Azure through your subscription. For instructions, see Get Started with Windows Azure Cmdlets.
The basic process for running the cmdlets by using the Windows Azure PowerShell command shell is as follows:
· Upload a Management Certificate. For more information about how to create and upload a management certificate, see How to: Manage Management Certificates in Windows Azure and the section entitled "Create a Certificate".
· Install the Windows Azure module for Windows PowerShell. The install can be found on the Windows Azure Downloads page, under Windows.
· Finally set the Windows PowerShell execution policy. To achieve this run the Windows Azure PowerShell as an Administrator and execute the following command:
Set-ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned
The Windows PowerShell execution policy determines the conditions under which configuration files and scripts are run. The Windows Azure PowerShell cmdlets need the execution policy set to a value of RemoteSigned, Unrestricted, or Bypass.
From a Visual Studio Command Prompt run the following:
makecert -sky exchange -r -n "CN=<CertificateName>" -pe -a sha1 -len 2048 -ss My "<CertificateName>.cer"
Where< CertificateName> is the name that you want to use for the certificate. It must have a .cer extension. The command loads the private key into your user store, indicated by the "-ss My" switch. In the certmgr.msc, it appears in the path of Certificates -Current User\Personal\Certificates.
Upload the new certification to Azure:
If one needs to connect from several machines the same certificate should be installed into the user store on that machine also.
There are two ways one can configure connectivity between your workstation and Windows Azure. Either manually by configuring the management certificate and subscription details with the Set-AzureSubscription and Select-AzureSubscription cmdlets, or automatically by downloading the PublishSettings file from Windows Azure and importing it. The settings for Windows Azure PowerShell are stored in: <user>\AppData\Roaming\Windows Azure PowerShell.
The PublishSettings file method works well when you are responsible for a limited number of subscriptions, but it adds a certificate to any subscription that you are an administrator or co-administrator for. This can be achieved by:
· Execute the following command:
· Save the .publishSettings file locally.
· Import the downloaded .publishSettings file by running the PowerShell command:
Import-AzurePublishSettingsFile< publishSettings-file>
Security note: This file contains an encoded management certificate that will serve as your credentials to administer all aspects of your subscriptions and related services. Store this file in a secure location, or delete it after you follow these steps.
In complex or shared development environments, it might be desirable to manually configure the publish settings and subscription information, including any management certificates, for your Windows Azure subscriptions. This is achieved by running the following script:
$mySubID = "<subscritionID>"
$certThumbprint = "<Thumbprint>"
$myCert = Get-Item cert:\CurrentUser\My\$certThumbprint
$mySubName = "<SubscriptionName>"
$myStoreAcct = "<StorageAccount>"
Set-AzureSubscription -SubscriptionName $mySubName -Certificate $myCert -SubscriptionID $mySubID
Select-AzureSubscription -Default $mySubName
Set-AzureSubscription –SubscriptionName $mySubName -CurrentStorageAccount $myStoreAcct
You can view the details of the Azure Subscription run the command:
Get-AzureSubscription –Default
Get-AzureSubscription -Current
This script uses the Set-AzureSubscription cmdlet. This cmdlet can be used to configure a default Windows Azure subscription, set a default storage account, or a custom Windows Azure service endpoint:
Set-AzureSubscription -DefaultSubscription $mySubName
You can also just select a subscription for the current session using:
Select-AzureSubscription -SubscriptionName $mySubName
When managing your cluster and you have multiple subscription it is advisable to set the default subscription.
Ensure the HDInsight binaries are accessible and loaded. They can be downloaded from:
Once downloaded and installed they are ready to be loaded into Azure PowerShell environment:
Import-Module "C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Azure HDInsight PowerShell\Microsoft.WindowsAzure.Management.HDInsight.Cmdlet\Microsoft.WindowsAzure.Management.HDInsight.Cmdlet.dll"
Assuming the Windows Azure HDInsight PowerShell Tools were installed to the default directory.
There are various ways one can provision a new cluster. If using the Management Portal there is a simple UX process once can follow:
However for an automated process it is recommended that PowerShell is utilized. In running the script to be presented one has to remember load the HDInsight management binaries, as outlined in the "Install HDInsight cmdlets" step.
The following sections present a series of scripts for automating cluster management. Further examples can also be found at Microsoft .Net SDK for Hadoop - PowerShell Cmdlets for Cluster Management.
Firstly one need access to the Subscription Id and Certificate, for the current Azure Subscription, which was registered in the "Setting Up Your Environment" step.
When running these scripts the italicized variables will first need to be defined.
1. In this version you need to explicitly specify subscription information for cmdlets. The plan is after the cmdlets are integrated with Azure PowerShell tools this step won't be necessary. Once can get the Default or Current subscription:
$subscriptionInfo = Get-AzureSubscription -Default
2. Once the Subscription Information has been obtained the properties of the Subscription are accessible:
$subName = $subscriptionInfo | %{ $_.SubscriptionName }
$subId = $subscriptionInfo | %{ $_.SubscriptionId }
$cert = $subscriptionInfo | %{ $_.Certificate }
$storeAccount = $subscriptionInfo | %{ $_.CurrentStorageAccountName }
3. Get the Storage Account Key so you can use it later.
$key = Get-AzureStorageKey $storeAccount | %{ $_.Primary }
4. Next get the Storage Account information:
$storageAccountInfo = Get-AzureStorageAccount $storeAccount
$location = $storageAccountInfo | %{ $_.Location }
5. Define the PS Credentials to be used when creating the cluster:
$hadoopUsername = "Hadoop"
$clusterUsername = "Admin"
$clusterPassword = "MyPassword"
$secpasswd = ConvertTo-SecureString $clusterPassword -AsPlainText -Force
$clusterCreds = New-Object System.Management.Automation.PSCredential($clusterUsername, $secpasswd)
6. Define the final cluster creation parameters:
$clusterName = $Cluster
$numberNodes = $Hosts
$containerDefault = $StorageContainer
$blobStorage = "$storeAccount.blob.core.windows.net"
7. Finally create new cluster. The cmdlet will return Cluster object in about 10-15 minutes when cluster is finished provisioning:
New-AzureHDInsightCluster -Subscription $subId -Certificate $cert -Name $clusterName -Location $location -DefaultStorageAccountName $blobStorage -DefaultStorageAccountKey $key -DefaultStorageContainerName $containerDefault -Credential $clusterCreds -ClusterSizeInNodes $numberNodes
Once the cluster has been created you will see the results displayed on the screen:
Name : carlhdinsighttest
ConnectionUrl : https://carlhdinsighttest.azurehdinsight.net
State : Running
CreateDate : 07/11/2013 14:16:37
UserName : Username
Location : Location
ClusterSizeInNodes : 4
You will also be able to see the cluster in the management portal:
If the subscription one is managing is not the configured default, before creating the cluster, one should execute the following command:
To create a script that enables one to pass in parameters, such as the number of required hosts, you can define a Param statement as the first line of the script:
Param($Hosts = 4, [string] $Cluster = $(throw "Cluster Name Required."), [string] $StorageContainer = "hadooproot")
The complete script would thus be as follows:
# Import the management module and assemblies
Add-Type –AssemblyName System.Web
# Get the subscription information and set variables
$subscriptionInfo = Get-AzureSubscription -Default
$clusterPassword = "mypassword"
# Create the cluster
Write-Host "Creating '$numbernodes' Node Cluster named: $clusterName" -f yellow
Write-Host "Storage Account '$storeAccount' and Container '$containerDefault'" -f yellow
Write-Host "User '$clusterUsername' Password '$clusterPassword'" -f green
Write-Host "Created '$numberNodes' Node Cluster: $clusterName" -f yellow
The script can then be executed as follows:
. "C:\Scripts\ClusterCreate.ps1" -Hosts 4 -Cluster "carlhdinsighttest" -StorageContainer "hadooproot"
Of course other variables can also be passed in.
One can view your current clusters within the current subscription using the following command:
Get-AzureHDInsightCluster -Subscription $subId -Certificate $cert
To view the details of a specific cluster use the following command:
Get-AzureHDInsightCluster $clusterName -Subscription $subId -Certificate $cert
To delete the cluster run the command:
Remove-AzureHDInsightCluster $clusterName -Subscription $subId -Certificate $cert
Thus a script one could use to delete clusters would be:
Param($Cluster = $(throw "Cluster Name Required."))
# Import the management module
# Delete the cluster
Write-Host "Deleting Cluster named: $clusterName" -f yellow
. "C:\Scripts\ClusterDelete.ps1" -Cluster "carlhdinsighttest"
There are few word that need to be mentioned around versioning and cluster name.
When a cluster is currently provisioned you will always get the latest build. However if there are breaking changes between your current build and latest build currently executing code could break. Future versions of the cluster provisioning may allow for a version number to be specified.
Also, when you delete a cluster there is no guarantee that when you recreate the cluster the name will be available. To ensure that your name is not going to be used abstract cluster names should be used.
You can also provision cluster and configure it to connect to more than one Azure Blob storage or custom Hive and Oozie meta-stores.
This advanced feature allows you to separate the lifetime of your data and metadata from the lifetime of the cluster. This not only includes job submission details but also allows one to retain Hive metadata, and hence table definitions, as long as Hive External tables are used.
Using the same principal of defining the italicized variables first, the first step is to get the subscription details and the storage key of the storage accounts you want to connect your cluster to, in this case 2 storage accounts:
$storeAccountBck = $storeAccount + "bck" # Assume same name with bck suffix
$keyBck = Get-AzureStorageKey $storeAccountBck | %{ $_.Primary }
$clusterUsername = "Admin"
$clusterPassword = "Password"
$blobStorageBck = "$storeAccountBck.blob.core.windows.net"
In this instance I have assumed that the secondary (backup) storage account has the same name as the original with a "bck" prefix. This however can be configured for your environment.
The next step is to create your custom SQL Azure Database and Server following this blog post or get credentials to the existing one.
To create a SQL Database one can easily use the management portal:
Using this connectivity information you can create cluster config object, pipe in additional storage and meta-stores configuration, and then finally pipe this config object into the New-AzureHDInsightCluster cmdlet to create a cluster based on this custom configuration.
New-AzureHDInsightClusterConfig -ClusterSizeInNodes $numberNodes
| Set-AzureHDInsightDefaultStorage -StorageAccountName $blobStorage -StorageAccountKey $key -StorageContainerName $containerDefault
| Add-AzureHDInsightStorage -StorageAccountName $blobStorageBck -StorageAccountKey $keyBck
| Add-AzureHDInsightMetastore -SqlAzureServerName $sqlServer -DatabaseName $databaseOozie -Credential $databaseCreds -MetastoreType OozieMetastore
| Add-AzureHDInsightMetastore -SqlAzureServerName $sqlServer -DatabaseName $databaseHive -Credential $databaseCreds -MetastoreType HiveMetastore
| New-AzureHDInsightCluster -Subscription $subId -Certificate $cert -Credential $clusterCreds -Name $clusterName -Location $location
In this instance I have again assumed that the Oozie and Hive database servers are the same and that the credentials are shared. S before this can easily be configured for your environment.
As before one can use the PowerShell Param option to create a script that enables passing in parameters; such as number hosts, cluster name, etc.
A complete configurable script would be as follows:
# Define variables for the SQL database connectivity
$sqlServer = "servername.database.windows.net"
$sqlUsername = "SqlUsername"
$sqlPassword = "SqlPassword"
$sqlpasswd = ConvertTo-SecureString $sqlPassword -AsPlainText -Force
$databaseCreds = New-Object System.Management.Automation.PSCredential($sqlUsername, $sqlpasswd)
$databaseHive = "HiveDatabaseName"
$databaseOozie = "OozieDatabaseName"
Write-Host "Creating '$numberNodes' Node Cluster named: $clusterName" -f yellow
Write-Host "Storage Account Backup '$storeAccountBck'" -f yellow
New-AzureHDInsightClusterConfig -ClusterSizeInNodes $numberNodes | Set-AzureHDInsightDefaultStorage -StorageAccountName $blobStorage -StorageAccountKey $key -StorageContainerName $containerDefault | Add-AzureHDInsightStorage -StorageAccountName $blobStorageBck -StorageAccountKey $keyBck | Add-AzureHDInsightMetastore -SqlAzureServerName $sqlServer -DatabaseName $databaseOozie -Credential $databaseCreds -MetastoreType OozieMetastore | Add-AzureHDInsightMetastore -SqlAzureServerName $sqlServer -DatabaseName $databaseHive -Credential $databaseCreds -MetastoreType HiveMetastore | New-AzureHDInsightCluster -Subscription $subId -Certificate $cert -Credential $clusterCreds -Name $clusterName -Location $location
. "C:\Scripts\ClusterCreateCustom.ps1" -Hosts 4 -Cluster "carlhdinsighttest" -StorageContainer "hadooproot"
In addition to managing the HDInsight cluster the Microsoft .Net SDK for Hadoop also allows one to write MapReduce jobs utilizing the .Net Framework. Under the covers this is employing the Hadoop Streaming interface. The documentation for creating such jobs can be found at:
To submit such jobs there is a command-line utility called MRRunner that should be utilized. To support the MRRunner utility you should have an assembly (a .net DLL or EXE) that defines at least one implementation of HadoopJob<>.
If the Dll contains only one implementation of Hadoop<>, you can run the job with:
MRRunner -dll MyDll
If the Dll contains multiple implementations of HadoopJob<>, then you need to indicate the one you wish to run:
MRRunner -dll MyDll -class MyClass
To supply options to your job, pass them as trailing arguments on the command-line, after a double-hyphen:
MRRunner -dll MyDll -class MyClass -- extraArg1 extraArg2
These additional arguments are provided to your job via a context object that is available to all methods on HadoopJob<>.
Of course one can submit job directly from a .Net executable and thus PowerShell scripts.
MapReduceJob is a property on Hadoop connection object. It provides access to implementation of IStreamingJobExecutor interface which handles the creation and execution of Hadoop Streaming jobs. Depending on how the connection object was created it can execute jobs locally using Hadoop command-line or against remote cluster using WebHCat client library.
Under the covers the MRRunner utility will invoke LocalStreamingJobExecutor implementation on your behalf.
Alternatively one can invoke the executor directly and request it execute a Hadoop Job:
var hadoop = Hadoop.Connect();
Utilizing this approach one can thus integrate Job Submission into cluster management scripts:
# Define Base Paths
$BasePath = "C:\Users\Carl\Projects"
$dllPath = $BasePath + "\WordCountSampleApplication\Debug"
$submitterDll = $dllPath + "\WordCount.dll"
$hadoopcmd = $env:HADOOP_HOME + "/bin/hadoop.cmd"
# Add submission file references
Add-Type -Path ($dllPath + "\microsoft.hadoop.mapreduce.dll")
# Define the Type for the Job
$submitterAssembly = [System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadFile($submitterDll)
[Type] $jobType = $submitterAssembly.GetType("WordCountSampleApplication.WordCount", 1)
# Connect and Run the Job
$hadoop = [Microsoft.Hadoop.MapReduce.Hadoop]::Connect()
$job = $hadoop.MapReduceJob
$result = $job.ExecuteJob($jobType)
Write-Host "Job Run Information"
Write-Host "Job Id: " $result.Id
Write-Host "Exit Code: " $result.Info.ExitCode
The only challenge becomes managing the generic objects within PowerShell.
In this case I have used a version of the WordCount sample that comes with the SDK. I have removed the Driver entry point and compiled the assembly into a DLL rather than an EXE.
Of course the ultimate goal is to submit the job from your management console. The process for this is very similar to the Local submission, with the inclusion of the connection information for the Azure cluster.
To provide flexibility in the job configuration allowing for a configuration object to be defined in the PowerShell script and for the mappers and reducers to be defined is desirable. This the full submission script would be as follows:
Param($Cluster = $(throw "Cluster Name Required."), [string] $StorageContainer = "hadooproot", [string] $InputPath = $(throw "Input Path Required."), [string] $OutputFolder = $(throw "Output Path Required."), [string] $Dll = $(throw "MapReduce Dll Path Required."), [string] $Mapper = $(throw "Mapper Type Required."), [string] $Reducer = $Null, [string] $Combiner = $Null)
# Define all local variable names for script execution
$submitterDll = $Dll
$dllPath = Split-Path $submitterDll -parent
$dllFile = Split-Path $submitterDll -leaf
Add-Type -Path ($dllPath + "\microsoft.hadoop.webclient.dll")
$clusterUsername = "Admin"
$clusterHttp = "https://$clusterName.azurehdinsight.net"
# Define the Types for the Job (Mapper. Reducer, Combiner)
[Type] $mapperType = $submitterAssembly.GetType($Mapper, 1)
[Type] $reducerType = $Null
if ($Reducer) { $reducerType = $submitterAssembly.GetType($Reducer, 1) }
[Type] $combinerType = $Null
if ($Combiner) { $combinerType = $submitterAssembly.GetType($Combiner, 1) }
# Define the configuration properties
$config = New-Object Microsoft.Hadoop.MapReduce.HadoopJobConfiguration
[Boolean] $config.Verbose = $True
$config.InputPath = $InputPath
$config.OutputFolder = $OutputFolder
# Define the connection properties
[Boolean] $createContinerIfNotExist = $True
[Uri] $clusterUri = New-Object System.Uri $clusterHttp
Write-Host "Executing Job Dll '$dllFile' on Cluster $clusterName" -f yellow
$hadoop = [Microsoft.Hadoop.MapReduce.Hadoop]::Connect($clusterUri, $clusterUsername, $hadoopUsername, $clusterPassword, $blobStorage, $key, $containerDefault, $createContinerIfNotExist)
$result = $job.Execute($mapperType, $reducerType, $combinerType, $config)
Write-Host "Job Run Information" -f yellow
The HadoopJobConfiguration allows for the definition of input and output files, along with other job parameters.
To execute the job one has to provide the types for the Mapper, Reducer, and Combiner. If a Reducer or Combiner are not needed then the parameter value of $Null can be used:
. "C:\Scripts\JobSubmissionAzure.ps1" -Cluster "carlhdinsighttest" -StorageContainer "hadooproot" -InputPath "/wordcount/input" -OutputFolder "/wordcount/output" -Dll "C:\Projects\WordCountSampleApplication\ \Debug\WordCount.dll" -Mapper "WordCountSampleApplication.WordCountMapper" -Reducer "WordCountSampleApplication.WordCountReducer" -Combiner "WordCountSampleApplication.WordCountReducer"
One has to remember in this case as we are submitting the job to an Azure cluster the default file system will be WASB.
To run this sample I uploaded some text files to the appropriate Azure storage location:
The output then will show up in the wordcount/output container.
After running this job, from within the management portal, you should see the metrics for the number of mapper and reducers executed be updated:
Unfortunately at this point in time you will not see your job within the job history when managing the cluster. For this you will have to use the standard Hadoop UI interfaces; accessible by connecting to the head node of the cluster.
As an alternative to his approach one could define a HadoopJob class configuration within the code; in addition to the mappers and reducers, such as:
class WordCount : HadoopJob<WordCountMapper, WordCountReducer, WordCountReducer>
To execute this job one would just need to define the type for the HadoopJob, which provides the necessary configuration details:
$result = $job.Execute($jobType)
The code in either case is very similar but the former approach is probably more flexible.
As mentioned the default schema when submitting MapReduce jobs is Azure Blob Storage. This means the default container specified when creating the cluster is used as the root.
In the example above the path "/wordcount/input" actually equates to:
Thus if one wanted to operate out of a different default container such as "data" fully-qualified names could be specified such as:
-InputPath "wasb://data@ mystorageaccount.blob.core.windows.net/books"
-OutputFolder "wasb://firstname.lastname@example.com/wordcount/output"
This would equate to the "data" container:
The containers being referenced just need to be under the same storage account.
The idea behind an Elastic Service is that the cluster can be brought up, with the necessary hosts, when job execution is necessary. To achieve this, with the provided scripts, one can use the following approach:
Param($Hosts = 4, $Cluster = $(throw "Cluster Name Required."), [string] $StorageContainer = "hadooproot", [string] $InputPath = $(throw "Input Path Required."), [string] $OutputFolder = $(throw "Output Path Required."), [string] $Dll = $(throw "MapReduce Dll Path Required."), [string] $Mapper = $(throw "Mapper Type Required."), [string] $Reducer = $Null, [string] $Combiner = $Null)
# Create the Cluster
. ".\ClusterCreate.ps1" -Hosts $Hosts -Cluster $Cluster –StorageContainer $StorageContainer
# Execute the Job
. ".\JobSubmissionAzure.ps1" -Cluster "carlhdinsighttest" -StorageContainer = "hadooproot" -InputPath "/wordcount/input" -OutputFolder "/wordcount/output" -Dll "C:\Projects\WordCountSampleApplication\ \Debug\WordCount.dll" -Mapper "WordCountSampleApplication.WordCountMapper" -Reducer "WordCountSampleApplication.WordCountReducer" -Combiner "WordCountSampleApplication.WordCountReducer"
# Delete the Cluster
. ".\ClusterDelete.ps1" -Cluster Cluster
To execute the script one just has to execute:
. "C:\Scripts\JobSubmissionElastic.ps1" –Hosts 4 -Cluster "carlhdinsighttest" -StorageContainer = "hadooproot" -InputPath "/wordcount/input" -OutputFolder "/wordcount/output" -Dll "C:\Projects\WordCountSampleApplication\ \Debug\WordCount.dll" -Mapper "WordCountSampleApplication.WordCountMapper" -Reducer "WordCountSampleApplication.WordCountReducer" -Combiner "WordCountSampleApplication.WordCountReducer"
This will create the cluster, run the required job, and then delete the cluster. During the creation the cluster name and number of hosts is specified, and during the job submission the input and output paths are specified.
One could of course roll all the script elements into a single reusable script, as follows:
Param($Hosts = 4, $Cluster = $(throw "Cluster Name Required."), [string] $StorageContainer = "hadooproot", [string] $InputPath = $(throw "Input Path Required."), [string] $OutputFolder = $(throw "Output Path Required."), [string] $Dll = $(throw "MapReduce Dll Path Required."), [string] $Mapper = $(throw "Mapper Type Required."), [string] $Reducer = $Null, [string] $Combiner = $Null, $MapTasks = $Null)
$clusterPassword = [System.Web.Security.Membership]::GeneratePassword(20, 5)
$sqlServer = "mydatabaseserver.database.windows.net"
$databaseHive = "HiveDatabaseCarl"
$databaseOozie = "OozieDatabaseCarl"
if ($MapTasks) {$config.AdditionalGenericArguments.Add("-Dmapred.map.tasks=$MapTasks")}
In this instance the cluster password is randomly generated, as it only needs to exist for the lifetime of the job execution. In reality one could also randomly generate the name of the cluster.
Of course one could also customize these scripts to including additional parameters such as additional job arguments, etc. The script presented here does take into consideration the number of mappers; specified with the MapTasks parameter.
This Elastic Job Submission process is possible because the storage used for input and output is Azure Blob Storage. As such the cluster is only needed for compute operations and not storage. In addition the job history is persisted, across cluster creations, in the specified SQL databases.
Of course other parameters could be included in this model to make the PowerShell script more applicable to more job types; such as number of mappers, additional job arguments, etc.

This document hopefully explains how best to manage an HDInsight cluster and submit .Net MapReduce jobs using a management console and Windows PowerShell. The ultimate goal was to provide an approach one could use for managing Elastic Job Submissions where the cluster only exists for the lifetime of the job.
This Elastic approach to job submissions is possible when using Windows Azure Storage Blobs for data retention and Windows Azure SQL Database for job history. Configuring the cluster such that there is a separate of compute and storage processes allows for the cluster to exist when and only when it is needed for computational processing.
Thanks for this post, this is excellent! It seems that the cluster name SHOULD be randomly generated, since you cannot guarantee that someone else would not have taken the previously used cluster name once you've deleted it in the prior run.
Do you have any examples in which you kick off an oozie job? I've tried following hadoopsdk.codeplex.com/wikipage but can't get it to work

Profits and Productivity
In this study we consider the linkage between productivity change and profit change. We develop an analytical framework in which profit change between one period and the next is decomposed into three sources: (i) a productivity change effect (which includes a technical change effect and an operating efficiency effect), (ii) an activity effect (which includes a product mix effect, a resource mix effect and a scale effect), and (iii) a price effect. We then show how to quantify the contribution of each effect, using only observed prices and quantities of products and resources in the two periods. We illustrate our analytical decomposition of profit change with an empirical application to Spanish banking during the period 1987 - 1994.

Gov. Pat McCrory
- Filed Under
Maybe it's just a rookie mistake.
But I'm deeply disappointed in Gov. Pat McCrory's flagrant patronage in handing out sweet government jobs to former campaign staffers, then giving them enormous raises that bumped their pay up past $85,000.
It's not political favoritism that riles me, it's the amateurism. Clearly, our new governor, a Republican, needs a little advice on how to dole out the jobs without creating a media frenzy. ...

November 30, 2015
INDIANAPOLIS (AP) -- Barack Obama says while it's "a moment of great uncertainty for America," it isn't a "time for fear or panic."
At a campaign rally in Indianapolis, Obama acknowledged the public anxiety over the financial crisis and the economic strain people are facing, noting "it's harder to make the mortgage or fill up your gas tank."
But he said, "there are better days ahead." Obama called it "a time for resolve and leadership" and said he was confident "we can steer ourselves out of this crisis."
Obama again ridiculed John McCain for saying recently that the fundamentals of the economy are strong. But Obama himself told the crowd that America has "the most talented, most productive workers" on Earth, and remains "home to innovation and technology, colleges and universities that are the envy of the world."

Renforth to Acquire 100% Interest in New Alger Property TORONTO, ONTARIO -- (Marketwire) -- 01/29/13 -- Renforth Resources Inc. ("Renforth" or the "Company") (CNSX:RFR) announces that it has entered into an agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") with Cadillac Ventures Inc. ("Cadillac") to acquire a 100% interest in Cadillac's New Alger Property, located in Cadillac Township, Quebec. The Purchase Agreement provides for the payment to Cadillac of the following: (i) $20,000 cash and 2,000,000 common shares of Renforth at the time of signing the Agreement, (ii) $210,000 cash by June 15, 2013, and (iii) $250,000 cash by November 15, 2013. Upon satisfaction of the foregoing conditions, Renforth will acquire a 100% interest in the property, subject to an existing 1% net smelter return royalty and Cadillac will retain an additional 1% net smelter return royalty. The New Alger Property was historically productive intermittently between 1929 and 1948. Historical and Quebec government records indicate that the minimum production was 21,740 oz. of gold from 175,055 tons of mined rock representing an average grade of 4.22 g/t Au. "Renforth is pleased to be in the position to be able to own 100% of the New Alger Property, and bring current exploration and technical methodology to bear on a property that has sat largely idle, for a long period of time. We are excited to be in the Cadillac Break, and look forward to commencing an exploration program," states Nicole Brewster, President and CEO of Renforth. The Purchase Agreement terminates the previous agreement between the parties under which Renforth had an option to acquire a 51% joint venture interest in the New Alger Property. ABOUT RENFORTH Renforth Resources Inc. is a Toronto-based exploration company pursuing the development of the Company's Mink Lake Project in the Red Lake area of Northwestern Ontario. The Company is also evaluating additional exploration opportunities on an ongoing basis. No securities regulatory authority has approved or disapproved of the contents of this news release.

BTW, in moddb's last podcast there's a short story about CWC and it's now famous community :)
CWC is a C&C Generals Zero Hour Total Conversion and also works with "The First Decade". It takes place from 1980-1989 and features realistic units from the 80's. We want CWC to be a mixture of realism and fun. CWC is more realistic than vanilla Generals, with real life weapon systems and side specific characteristics. CWC offers 2 factions: Russia and USA. The Russians tend to use tanks and artillery (for example: T-72 / T-80, BM-21, 2S1 only to mention a few) while the USA rely on aircraft and high tech units (for example: F-15, F-16, F-117, A-10 etc.). Also we we have a lot of infantry in the game, not all of them are just cannon fodder.
We are currently working on a new scenario map. Also a MDK update has been released. Read on for more news.
Posted by [CWC]SHADOW on Mar 20th, 2009
Hey guys,here's a little status update for you.We're currently working on a new scenario map that will offer some new gameplay mechanics. Head over to this thread for more information and some preview pics.Furthermore, CWC and its awesome community (that is, you) are mentioned in the latest moddb modcast (at minute 76) because of the huge amount of user-created content. Head over to our profile to get single- and multiplayer maps created by our fans or download the CWC Map Development Kit and create maps yourself!
Thank you to all creators!
Also a new version of the Map Development Kit has just been released. It adds the scripts for the new secondary objective introduced in the Schwarzwald map to the MDK. Check it out!
Last but not least, gamesmodding.com posted an interview with our mapper and AI developer Skleni.That's it for now, expect more updates soon!

Then we come to the choice of Captain, should Scott Bakula have been choosen, he's a great actor but not sure he was Star Trek captaincy quality.
While a different actor might have been a better choice, Bakula likely could have played Archer different if Archer had been created and written as a more professional officer. Highly trained, experienced, resolute. Someone who had previously commanded a "lesser" starship, and not have been simply a test pilot.
It was never made clear why Archer was selected to command the Enterprise.

I think there were far too many unknown races being encountered in close space, making people feel this was several hundreds of ly away from Earth, not within 100, 200, etc ly of Earth.
Within 200 ly of Earth there are (real world) well over 116,000 stars, If anything too much time was spent interacting with previously well established alien species like the Klingons and Romulans (they could have largely dispensed with the Romulans completely as far as I'm concerned).
or were ripoffs ... "Doctor's Orders"
I liked Doctor's Orders, while it is like the Voyager episode in some ways, there are enough differences. Phlox is a more appealing character than Seven was in isolation. The two crews face a similar problem and employed a similar solution.
if they felt Seasons 1-2 had a direction
One of the biggest objections I had with the first couple of season was that Archer didn't seem to have a structured mission, he (and the Enterprise) were just wondering around.
and could see steps being taken towards the founding of the Federation
One of the thing that killed the fourth season (for me) was the endless boring references to the "Coalition of Planets." The final episode where the formation of the Federation was featured is commonly reviled. The Federation is best kept far in the background.

Voucher Guarantee
Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:
GrabOne's Voucher Guarantee means missing out on claiming your deal in time no longer means losing out altogether!
How does it work?
- A voucher is valid up to and including the expiry date stated.
- If you don't use your voucher before that date for whatever reason, it can still be used towards that service with that business for an additional 30 days.
For example, if you buy a bungy jump deal but don't use it before the expiry date, you can still use the amount you paid for the voucher towards a bungy jump, for another 30 days.
A few things to note:
- The GrabOne Voucher Guarantee does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.
- It's always best to use your voucher before the expiry date, so you get the most value for your money. And if you're a bit forgetful, we now automatically remind you if your vouchers are about to expire.
- During the extended Voucher Guarantee period, your voucher can only be put towards the service stated on the voucher.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the Voucher Guarantee can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.
- The conditions on your voucher still apply during the Voucher Guarantee period.

Inspired by the likes of The Prodigy, Noisia, Bad Company UK, and Black Sun Empire, NickBee (real name Nick -----) started producing drum & bass at age 15. One year later he began learning to mix. Within 3 months, he was debuting his skills in clubs. Flash forward five years and countless hours sitting at his PC, NickBee is a rising star in the European drum and bass scene. As a young producer, Nickbee has collaborated with the likes of Enei and Billain, while releasing music on highly respected labels like Horizons Music, Close 2 Death, Dispatch, and TAMRECORDS. An impressive record for a 21 year old. Oh - and he's got forthcoming material on Bad Taste and Noisia's Invisible imprint, to boot. With one foot set in the future and another amongst neurofunk DNB's architects, Nick's trademark sound is not easily classified. Morphing, animalistic basslines project through sonic space in perfectly organized chaos, with structure provided by painfully sharp drums. Never conforming to any set mold, Nickbee's allegiance to innovation makes a quirky, experimental element a defining factor of his music. Perhaps most impressive is the young artist's mastery of next-level sound design, which is never forced or overdone; only tastefully applied in careful amounts, always striking that perfect balance of hi-tech and low-fi…a skill reserved only for experts. As this producer continues to defy formula and rewrite DNB's blueprint, it becomes clear that only one word can adequately describe this future sound of drum & bass… NickBee. nickbee's tracks NickBee - ETG & 10 000 Followers Mix by nickbee published on 2015/05/21 19:25:31 +0000 NickBee Ft.Mc Fava -Autonomy(OUT NOW) by nickbee published on 2014/12/05 20:15:53 +0000 NickBee & Limel - PathFinder by nickbee published on 2014/12/04 16:05:12 +0000 NickBee - Studio Mix 2014 by nickbee published on 2014/10/25 17:59:49 +0000 NickBee - She Is by nickbee published on 2014/10/03 23:24:46 +0000 NickBee - Arizona by nickbee published on 2014/10/03 23:18:15 +0000 NickBee & Displaced Paranormals - Mothman by nickbee published on 2014/09/24 21:24:30 +0000 NickBee ft.

The owner, Bernice, was very helpful with tips of things to do. The breakfast was great. The room was clean and spacious. She also let us leave our car in the parking lot after we checked out so we could further explore the town.
Rooms good size and clean/Food good
Reception staff on arrival not at all friendly and conducted phone conversation in middle of our checking in without apology or explanation
I enjoyed the location, the politeness and attention of the staff, the restaurant - for both evening meals and breakfasts - and condition of the hotel and room.
Nothing to dislike.
Central in clonmel nice trendy modern b&b handy for weekend break nice friendly staff and a good breakfast the next morning what more could ya want for €70 a couple
The hotel was of 5 star plus standard.The staff weee extremely friendly and helpful.The food was glorious .I will be going again.
the food was absolutely beautiful and could not be faulted.
We travelled with 2 other people who were on the supervalu break and were shocked at the difference in the two bedrooms. My bedroom was new, bright and modern, while their was old - not reflective in your website. I would also ask that one of your bar staff learns some manners and realise that tourist are contributing to his salary. He not only insulted our party, but was heard to insult a number of other guests. I feel that this may be his sense of humour, however it was not taken to be funny and has actually soured this part of our holiday.
Very charming and it has beautiful grounds. It's an easy walk to the town center on a nice day.
Lack of fan/air conditioning. We were there on a hot day and there was no air flow in the room even with the window open. The tv in the room is also older and small.
Sleep in a castle
Convenient location within walking distance of most all of Dublin, the age of the building gives great character but was very accommodating and comfortable. On our two week trip to Ireland and England this is the only place we spent two nights. Great assistance from the staff.
Fantastic staff, nice in town location, within a very short walk to Cahir Castle and Swiss Cottage. Very clean. Great value... especially for families as they have nice family rooms. Wonderful full breakfast for residents included. Lovely gardens to roam around in, nice parking on site.
nothing that I wasn't pleased with.
Excellent for budget travel. Perfect if your main objective is to see the Rock of Cashel. Could use better explanation of where you can park in the area though.

We're not the seller
At KAYAK we don't set prices, so it's not possible for us to guarantee what other companies are selling.
We aggregate tons of data for you
Our service lets you quickly and easily compare results from hundreds of travel sites at once. In this sense, KAYAK is a search engine and we don't guarantee prices we find.
Why aren't prices accurate 100% of the time?
Prices on airline seats, hotel rooms and car rentals can change frequently. Several people may also be trying to buy the same travel option simultaneously. As a result, you may find on occasion that certain prices are no longer available.
