 One thing is certain: Cloud is powering business growth across Australia and New Zealand. Cloud lends: (i) speed, allowing for accelerated innovation; (ii) empowerment, giving users and developers the tools they need and; (iii) economics, saving time with self-service and only having to buy what you need the Cloud is truly changing the game.

 This is true not only for largest organisations but for organisations of all sizes, industries, geographies and market share. The start-up world is a perfect showcase for how Cloud is the ultimate game changer.

 In this short video Brendon McQueen from HotelsCombined.com, an all-encompassing hotel site where users can access the best rates from a variety of top travel sites all in the same place, speaks of the benefits that his organisation has been able to access including, (i) rapid prototyping of ideas and ; (ii) A aay as you go model that reduces both up-front outlay and risk as it allows his organisation to scale their compute power as they trial and discard ideas without the need to carry the hosting expense over an extended periods.

 With 25 million users each month, a suite of awards and rapid expansion into markets historically dominated by incumbent players, the transformative power accessible via the Cloud speaks for itself.

 If you're interested in how IBM SoftLayer can fuel growth in your organisation, I encourage you to drop me a line.

This article by HighTechDad (aka Michael Sheehan) provides essential reading for anyone trying to understand the myriad cloud solutions available. By categorising cloud offerings into distinct categories, namely: Public, Private, Hybrid and Virtual, Sheehan provides a taxonomy against which an organisation can easily decide which cloud solution is most appropriate to their specific needs.

 Below is the blog post from Sheehan as it originally appeared here.

Cloud computing can be very confusing. It can be abstractly discussed but also detailed to intricate levels. A few years ago, part of the reason why people weren't adopting cloud computing was because they simply didn't understand it and what it could do for them. And, a few years ago, the technology and services were relatively new and not as built-out and established as they are now.

In my previous posts of this series, I talked about what I thought would come in 2012 for cloud computing, I debunked a few common misstatements about the cloud and, I listed out some ways to make cloud computing work better for people. With this article, I'm going to break down some of the different types of clouds and explain how they might be used.

Because the cloud is relatively new to many businesses and individuals, I typically describe and explain it more as a generalist than a technologist. If you get into the weeds too quickly, you can frequently lose your audience. That is not my goal in this article. If you want to get into the geek speak about which hypervisor you should look for (hint: it doesn't really matter), what type of I/O performance should you be achieving or how to configure a Cassandra DB cluster that spans multiple data centres with real-time replication, you aren't going to find that here. I like to keep things moderately simple so that more people can understand and hopefully gain insights into why cloud computing might be the right choice for them.

This list is not complete, but should provide you with some of the most prevalent clouds out there. You, of course, have the daunting task of trying to decide which one works best for your business or personal needs.

Public Cloud

This type of cloud is publicly available to businesses and consumers. Typically, these have multiple data center locations and offer a variety of services. My earlier articles talk about the layers within public cloud: Software, Platform & Infrastructure, so I won't go into the details of those. An important thing to note is that public clouds are multi-tenant, meaning that whatever virtualised instance you are running, the server exists on shared space with other customers. Because of the way hypervisors (Xen, KVM, VMware & others) are designed, you typically will not notice performance degradation from "noisy neighbors" the way you would in a Virtual Private Server or Shared Hosting environment. But, it is an important consideration to think about given that it is indeed using shared resources. But by sharing resources (bandwidth, CPU, RAM, Storage) you also get the benefit of economies of scale. The hypervisor and the management layer co-exist to ensure that you DON'T have any issues with shared resources.

Ok, I got a bit geeky there, sorry.

The bottom line is, Public Clouds are a fantastic choice for businesses looking to stop purchasing and managing physical hardware and data centers, and transform this capital expenditure to an operating expenditure. Essentially, you lease compute and/or storage and consume bandwidth, but all without purchasing anything physical.

Private Cloud

When people talk about private clouds, they typically have a need to keep their entire infrastructure and contents therein, private. This could be due to their environment containing sensitive data or having to have enhanced security of their architecture. Simply put, think of a public cloud but in a private environment – one that is dedicated to a single entity or corporation. They are typically pretty expensive, but you are paying for this "privilege" in order to gain privacy or enhance security. Private clouds can come in a variety of flavors, hosted (managed by a provider) and in-house (managed by a customer in their own data centre). Obviously, the in-house one will be more expensive, typically because there is a capital outlay to set up the environment. With any type of cloud, large, high-end servers are used with virtualisation technology in order to carve our smaller virtual servers, thus the need to purchase (or lease) these higher end servers for private clouds. With a hosted private cloud, there is typically only a management fee associated with the costs and that gets you a private cloud that is maintained by a provider in their own data centre or perhaps a rack or cage at a customer's data centre or hosting facility. Regardless, the hosted private cloud is isolated to that specific customer.

Hybrid Cloud

Hybrid clouds are typically two or more clouds that are linked together via a dedicated private connection or VPN (Virtual Private Network). Hybrid clouds could be a linkage between public clouds, a private and a public cloud, or even a physical data centre with a cloud. Hybrid clouds can be used to extend a company's infrastructure for redundancy or disaster recovery, meaning that if there is an issue with one cloud, traffic could be routed to a different cloud. Sometimes hybrid clouds are used for bursting, meaning the primary traffic is handled by one pre-defined cloud and then overflow could be routed to a secondary cloud and scaled back. This is somewhat similar to what can be configured within a single cloud environment, where virtualised servers can be scaled out when demand requires it and scaled back when the demand subsides. The difficulty of setting up and delivering a hybrid cloud environment is that frequently there are differences in architectures of different cloud vendors, especially if they have their own proprietary infrastructure protocols. There are service companies available that provide management consoles or libraries to unify the management of different vendors' infrastructure services. Hybrid clouds should not be confused with Hybrid Hosting, another practical implementation of cloud computing combined with dedicated, managed physical server environments.

Virtual Private Cloud

You can create a "private cloud" environment within a public cloud and these are known as virtual private clouds. Obviously, these are not true private clouds because they reside within multi-tenant environments (e.g., public clouds). There is a bit of a gray area, in my mind, between a hybrid cloud and a virtual private cloud. Regardless, if the connection between a company's legacy computing environment and the public cloud is completely private and secured (e.g., using a VPN), this would be considered a virtual private cloud. Typically, the public cloud part of the equation is used to extend a customer's existing infrastructure. With a virtual private cloud, external access to the public cloud is cut off and all connections travel via the VPN from the customer, or within a VLAN or private network between servers within the public cloud environment.

Cloud Washing

I had to throw this term into the mix because it is an important one to know and remember when you are shopping for cloud solutions. When cloud computing first started out, there were just a few players making any kind of money and establishing a foothold. But as adoption grew, so did the desire to join the ranks of being a cloud provider. The problem was, many of these companies who did "join", really weren't providing true cloud computing solutions. They were simply slapping the label of "cloud" on their existing offerings and saying that they were selling "cloud." Remember, for something to be "cloud", you have to be able to deploy infrastructure yourself, pay just for what you consume and be able to scale your environments via a management console or programmatically quickly and easily. Also, most clouds are multi-tenant and utilise some sort of virtualisation in their computer provisioning and leasing. For example, you might find some Virtual Private Server (VPS) or shared hosting companies say they provide "cloud" because they carve out space on two machines and link them together. That's NOT cloud. You have to control it and scale it. Just be sure that whichever vendor you choose passes the cloud computing litmus test and has the cloud characteristics that I have (repeatedly) mentioned.

A Cloud For All Seasons

Ok, I lied a bit. I guess I had to geek out a bit to really get into it.

The cloud types that I mentioned above are just a few of the many that have emerged. These types are becoming mainstream and being utilised by corporations, developers and IT professionals. The most important thing you can do when shopping and evaluating cloud computing vendors is to first understand what your OWN needs are. If you don't understand what your company is trying to accomplish from an IT perspective, or even more generally, from a business standpoint, you are not going to have a clue as to which type of cloud to use or build. But you are taking the right first step, that of RESEARCH, by reading this article. Also, talk to the vendors out there. Explain what you want to do. Give them examples. Attend industry trade shows. Basically, become as knowledgeable as you can about your needs and what's available.

Cloud computing sounds complicated and it can depend on your requirements and the type of cloud you choose. But it is also a new way to think about computing. It's here to stay so use it to your advantage and get ahead of the curve.

In light of my day to day discussions with clients the article is very relevant, as it would appear that a large proportion of businesses are thinking about incorporating hosted (or cloud) storage into their IT environment within the year ahead.
Although highlighting the many benefits of cloud-storage, Lynda raises some timely points that serve to debunk the perception that cloud-computing always serves as the elixir of an organisation's storage challenges. Unchecked optimism in the benefits of cloud-based storage often result s in the organisation facing the same issues, having merely transferred their data centre inefficiencies into a new environment.

Adopting a more reasoned and balanced approach when revisiting your storage strategy presents a tremendous opportunity to optimise your storage environments. Like the author, the best storage strategies I have encountered are those that include in-house and cloud-based storage and are those that have been designed in-line with the best practices identified within the whitepaper, such as;

 Reducing the amount of data you're storing.

 Keeping your data in the right place.

 Increasing your utilization of your existing storage hardware.

In this article, posted on Midsize Insider, Doug Bonerud, captures some of the coming trends in small & medium business (SMB) IT spending for the year ahead. Its widely accepted that 2012 will see ever rising adoption rates of cloud computing in the market and continued growth in the number of providers within the marketplace. What is interesting to read, however, is that SMB's appear to be becoming increasingly discerning when selecting their cloud provider. What SMB's are now looking for in a cloud provider is enterprise level service that is both affordable and agile.

I'd encourage all organisations when considering who will provide their virtualisation or cloud services in the year ahead to implement the guidance offered in the article: be picky, be productive and expect the best. Below is the original blog post from Doug as it appeared here.

One of the surest signs of cloud computing's advancement is the number of service providers now in the market. Diversification means the technology is accessible enough that start-ups across the US are dipping their toes in virtual water, in turn giving small and midsize business (SMB) IT more choice when it comes to who will provide their virtualization or cloud services. Recent data indicates that not only will SMB IT spending in the cloud continue through 2012, but that IT admins will ask tougher questions of providers.

What's Coming This Year

No, not the Amiga 1000--but IT spending is on the rise. As discussed in an MSPMentor article, research firm IDC's recent webinar highlighted several trends for IT spending in both small and medium-sized business through 2012. Predictions are for spending to increase approximately 6 percent, from $144 billion to $150 billion. There is also an expectation that small businesses (those with less than 500 employees) will spend more than their midsize counterparts. Cloud computing is also becoming more prevalent, with adoption of some form of cloud service predicted for at least 50 percent of all midsize businesses, and 33 percent among small businesses.

For SMB IT, it's worth noting that the webinar looks at solution viability and productivity as primary factors this year, rather than price. Expect to see an increase in agility and functionality of mission-critical apps from smaller providers to leverage this trend. IT professionals should find greater depth of services in 2012, allowing them to be choosy in who manages their cloud provision.

Be Picky, Be Productive

No matter the type of service being offered or how agile it purports to make a cloud or virtual server, all SMB IT managers are well-served by being picky when choosing a service provider. According to a recent InformationWeek article, there are several things IT pros should demand from any provider before signing a contract.

First, SMB IT managers should look for buzzwords like "low-cost" or "budget-friendly." These sound great and look snazzy on paper, but mean little without real numbers; any worthwhile provider should give a clear figure without all the adjectives. It's also important to make sure that contract terms make sense to both parties--they need to pass legal muster and they should be easily understood. Contracts should clear detail regarding the agreement's duration, service provisions, and what the provider will do if they somehow cause a catastrophic failure. If anything is unclear, SMBs should always ask--the virtual devil is in the details. Last but absolutely not least, make sure both parties understand what will happen when the agreement terminates, whether on time or prematurely. SMB admins need to know how their data will be returned and what will happen to any data held by the provider. If a cloud service provider won't answer these kinds of questions, they probably aren't a good match.

Expect the Best

There's little doubt that SMB spending on IT is only going up in 2012, albeit at a slower rate than in recent years. Still, the increase in both spending and cloud adoption marks the perfect opportunity for IT admins to find a provider that is both affordable and agile. For SMB admins, the key is to have high expectations; cloud and virtual technology have been on the market long enough for IT to expect that providers will offer concrete pricing and straightforward contracts and be clear about what happens to customer data.

Guest Columnist
I have a good friend who is a professional oral story-teller. If the story is untrue, Glenda begins with "Once upon a time…". If, however, the story is factual, she begins by saying, "Let me share a memory with you."
At least two newspapers headlined the final sale of Temple-Inland to Georgia Pacific; several folks with whom I spoke that week echoed their hearts' voices:
"Temple-Inland is no more, and that's sad." Especially for those who have proudly named Diboll (or "Dibble" as a lot of out-of-town people pronounce it) for their hometown, change might be especially tough. One quote I heard in Sunday school was, "Nobody really enjoys change except a baby!"
So — may I take a trip with memories and remind many of us that where we are today has been a journey of sawdust smells and a cornbread whistle, plus stops along the track that determined our life directions.
Within the last few weeks, I have visited with families who helped make Diboll much more than a sleepy East Texas town. I spent a little time with Mrs. Hutto and her daughter, Rita Kay, as they grieved the passing of a husband and father. How well I remember living around the corner from them and knowing that the Hutto house was well kept. Like many of the company houses we grew up in, their house was no prettier, but the pride which these and other families took with clean yards and porches always welcomed those who came; it was important then and should be now that neighbors cared for each other in remarkable ways. Perhaps it was sharing bounty from gardens, preparing food for grieving ones, teaching children respect and courage and seeing beyond the years what those children could become.
I drove down the street named for my dad and uncle, who like so many others, kept the company afloat on sawdust salaries. When part of the mill burned on a cold winter day, did they and others call a government agency and say "Where is help?" No. Diboll men and women, including executives, fought that fire. With a fierce independence through good and bad years, they had staying power.
We hope Georgia Pacific honors that heritage!
Bob Bowman really was the people's historian. He not only wrote his own obituary but credited his success to educators and other adults who saw journalistic potential. As many times as that "cornbread whistle" blew at 11:15 a.m., Bob and his wife, Doris, spread the word of places and people who rarely insisted on their few minutes of fame. They just did what everyday heroes always do; they showed up. Diboll still has those kinds of folks who try very hard to promote pride in civic, spiritual and educational areas.
The company commissary (later to become the company offices) and the Antler Hotel lost the battle to termites and age, yet if you look carefully, you can see the drug, department and grocery stores — long before anyone ever built a mall. While the current company offices seem a bit vacant, perhaps sometime soon, the sounds of technology will share the stage with a company that appreciates the heritage set by the Temple family — which, by the way, that "family" includes many who were not directly related but were the glue that held the town together.
From the viewpoint of one who was so blessed to know and still know dear hearts and gentle people, I say "thank you" to Diboll and wish the new owners well in their endeavors.

Database tracking pain pill use in NY breaks down
NEW YORK (AP) — A database that is supposed to help New York doctors spot prescription drug abusers is back in operation after it was knocked offline for four days due to a computer hardware problem.
The outage frustrated some doctors, who use the system to check whether patients seeking pain pills like OxyContin have already gotten prescriptions from other physicians.
State Health Department spokesman Peter Constantakes tells Newsday (http://bit.ly/XgbzPy) that the problem has been corrected. He couldn't say how often outages occur. The system was offline between Monday and Friday morning.
State lawmakers last spring voted to establish a more comprehensive system to track potentially addictive drugs to replace the current one, which is limited and sometimes has outdated information. It is supposed to be up and running by August.

Christmas Crafts Scandinavian Style
By Tone Merete Stenkløv and Miriam Nilsen Morken
Gifted by Stackpole Books
Reviewed by Katherine Filippo
Make beautiful homemade gifts and add some Scandinavian flair to your home this Christmas with the help of Christmas Crafts Scandinavian Style. These simple and traditional crafts are inspired by Christmas decorations in Opal, Norway where the authors Tone Merete Stenkløv and Miriam Nilsen Morken live.
Filled with gorgeous full-page pictures, detailed instructions and full-size patterns, it's easy to make all the projects. This book has 50 Christmas crafts you'll love to make and share this holiday season. There are wreaths, ornaments, pillows, gift wrap, greeting cards, recipes and much more!
The crafts have a rustic feel and are made from a variety of materials such as wood, fabric, and paper. I love how each project has cute details like hand stitching, wood beads or buttons. The Snowmen and Christmas Trees crafts even use twigs and tree branches! Talk about all-natural. Whether you are looking for unique gift wrapping or charming decorations there's sure to be a project that fits your needs.
My favorite craft is the cute Christmas Mouse made from felt. You could make a bunch and have a whole family of festive critters. There's no need to worry about sizing because the pattern is conveniently located in the back of the book. Once you finish stuffing them you can decorate your adorable mice with buttons and ribbon!
There are also a few traditional recipes in Christmas Crafts Scandinavian Style. Once you learn how to make adorable gift bags you can fill them with freshly baked seedcake or kringles. The recipes are traditional Danish Christmas pastries that make me hungry just looking at them!
This book has a wonderful collection of crafts that you'll love making, displaying and giving this Christmas season. These Scandinavian Christmas crafts are sure to make your holiday season picture perfect!

For a group of local Boy Scouts, earning the title of Eagle Scout this weekend was more than just an honor, it was a years-long dream come true.
A total of 10 Lehigh Valley scouts were named Eagle Scouts in a court of honor ceremony Sunday afternoon at Lehigh University. Eight of the Scouts have been together since joining in the first grade when they decided to become Eagle Scouts together.
"This has been their plan all along," Scoutmaster Mike Caffrey said. "They started talking about this when they were Tiger Cubs."

Our immigration mess is like a three-legged stool. Fixing one leg is no better than doing nothing. We need immigration reform that addresses all three parts of this vexing problem: increased border security; a plan to deal with the illegal aliens already here (the vast majority of whom are hard-working, tax-paying and otherwise law-abiding members of our communities); and more flexible and realistic legal immigration policies that allow us to admit more permanent residents and guest workers as our labor needs require.
I know this approach drives the anti-immigrant crowd crazy -- but they are a small though noisy fraction of the public concerned with immigration. Unfortunately, these voices are driving the current debate, especially on conservative talk radio and cable news shows. I wonder how many conservatives who embrace the anti-immigrant message know that their fellow travelers' roots are in the pro-abortion, population-control movement.
Dr. John Tanton, who was the brainchild behind many of the most prominent restrictionist groups, including the Federation for American Immigration Reform, the Center for Immigration Studies and Numbers USA, is a past president of Zero Population Growth. These groups often cite demographer Leon Bouvier's work to support their arguments. In his book "How Many Americans?: Population, Immigration and the Environment," Bouvier and co-author Lindsey Grant advocated reducing the American population to 150 million by the end of this century -- that's almost half the current population. Although they're guarded in suggesting any draconian measures to achieve this goal, averring that "Deliberate reductions in life expectancy to reduce population are, of course, out of the question," their prescriptions are nonetheless chilling.

The best lip stain that I have found for me & have yet to find a suitable, affordable replacement. I used Strawberry (framboise), I think #1. So sad that it's discontinued. It was a bit drying but the color stayed all day.
Sephora has yet to stock a product as good as this one.
Age: 25-29
Skin: Oily, Fair, Not Sure

I love this product. It lasts all day and gives that just bitten look. Too bad its discontinued. However, I found a seller on ebay named yulashop and she sells them pretty cheap. Check her out!
Age: 30-35

The Framboise was the best lip stain I've ever found. Gutted that it's discontinued! Mine lasted for two years, wish I could find just one more!
Age: 18 & Under
Skin: Very Oily, Olive, Warm
Hair: Black, Curly, Medium
Eyes: Brown
WEWT! I found this discontinued item online.
Ok so it's a really nice lip stain and I am addicted to them. I got the Peach one and the Pras de something (can't remember). The peach comes out a really nice pinky peach colour and it's quite natural looking. I love stains because they are very low maintenance and I hate having to look in the mirror like "omg is my makeup everywhere?" This is a nice stain and get this - it doesn't taste of anything! Yay. Also, the nib of the pen is just like a felt tip, it's really easy to draw onto your lips and colour them in. The pen is just cute. I love this colour but it dries your lips out so you might want to put a balm over it.
Age: 25-29
Skin: Sensitive, Fair, Not Sure
Hair: Black, Other, Other
Eyes: Green
YES!!! A+! Too bad it's not easily available anymore. I'm reviewing Peche Passion which is the epitome of warm apricot loveliness! The pen is convenient and provides definition and long lasting colour with minimal dryness. (It's a stain, afterall.) Application is a breeze - precise and fast. I had it for well over a year and there is still some life left in it. While the tip does dry out, the slanted shape did allow for continuous use. I will most definitely purchase the remaining stock if I'll ever see it again.
Age: 36-43
Skin: Dry, Fair, Not Sure
Hair: Brunette, Other, Other
Eyes: Brown
It must just be me - the tip of this pen tickles my lips in the most impossible way (but the color is cute, I guess). It has no smell and no taste, which is nice.
Age: 19-24
Skin: Oily, Olive, Not Sure
Hair: Black, Other, Other
Eyes: Brown
This is a wonderful lip stain that actually stains my lips. It lasts for hours. I've had my pen for seven months and I use it about three times a week ... I've run out and I'm eager to collect other colors! Definitely give this product a try. The color of my choice is Rose/Prefere and it stains my lips the perfect shade of fuchsia. When clear gloss is applied it looks equally pleasing.
Age: 19-24
Skin: Combination, Tan, Not Sure
Hair: Brown, Other, Other
Eyes: Brown
Best lip stain EVER!! I was actually in shock when I tried this and how good it was! I have it in red, framboise and praline and all three are amazing! The colours can be build up, however a little goes a long way! They last all day and can if worn under a gloss look amazing! Ive tried benetint and Jemma Kidds lip stain and they did not have the staying power of natural colouring of this! I would highly recommend it to anyone! The applicator is like a felt tip pen so I never feel im applying too much!! If your looking for a good lip stain this is it!
Age: Unknown
Skin: Combination, Fair, Not Sure
Hair: Red, Other, Other
Eyes: Green
Fabulous lip stain! staying power and looks really natural. No 4 is a fabulous retro red.
Age: 36-43
Skin: Sensitive, Olive, Not Sure
Hair: Brown, Other, Other
Eyes: Green
I have these in the pink, the peach and praline and I hardly use anything else any more. I've had them for a year now. I think about buying other lippies, then I realize that nothing will last and be as easy as these. I layer with Dr. Pepper Lipsmacker and my lips stay in great condition all the time which is a miracle since I've always battled chapped lips.

What is Business Watch?
Business Watch is a voluntary and complimentary program offered by the Folsom Police Department to local businesses. It is a proactive crime prevention program that establishes a formal communication network between local businesses, merchants, and the Folsom Police Department. Folsom Police Department employees and the Citizens Assisting Public Safety (CAPS) Volunteers will provide staffing to assist with the services of this program.
Modeled after the very successful Neighborhood Watch concept, the Business Watch program is designed to facilitate a relationship among business owners, employees, property managers, and law enforcement.
An educational Business Watch Handbook is available which contains crime prevention information to assist business owners and managers in training employees how to recognize suspicious activity and report crimes. Join us for our next Quarterly Seminar, Wednesday, November 18, 2015 at 9:30 a.m. at Folsom City Council Chambers.
Why join?
Most criminals are opportunists. As a business owner or manager, you can reduce your risk of loss due to commercial crime by being proactive rather than reacting after the fact.
By joining Business Watch, you are taking an important step toward reducing criminal activity in and around your business in the most effective way - before it begins.
Business Watch enables the business community to take an active role in reducing crime, by raising awareness about commercial crime trends. You will have the opportunity to participate in crime prevention training, and share current community information, via Nixle and other social media resources.Getting to know the people in neighboring businesses and forming a community that looks out for each other, significantly impacts law enforcement's ability to maintain safer business establishments and commercial complexes.
Business Watch will offer members periodic newsletters and training seminars aimed at crime prevention.
How to Join Business Watch?
For more information on becoming a member of the Business Watch program and becoming part of Folsom's crime prevention communication network, please contact Folsom Police Department Business Watch at (916) 962-9779 or by email to: firstname.lastname@example.com

Comments about Dawson Floor Cabinet:
I wanted a small floor cabinet to put in the corner of our master bathroom to store odds and ends. We choose this to match the Dawson Space Saver that we bought for above our toilet. Assembly went OK. The only glitch in my assembly process was that the door only hangs one way. That's OK, but if you don't think ahead and pay attention to the sides (which are interchangeable in every other way), you can install them with the pre-drilled holes for the hinge screws on the wrong side. I had to disassemble the entire thing and essentially start over (which was actually pretty easy because of the nature of the assembly). Once it is assembled, the unit is very sturdy and the adjustable shelves give you many options for storage. Be aware that the door has a window that allows you to see everything that is stored on the top shelf. Also, for the price, don't expect precision engineering. The door doesn't hang exactly square, but it essentially is "good enough" as long as you're not too OCD. At least as good as other furniture in the same (or even somewhat higher) price bracket.

The list keeps growing and growing and...
While plans are changing minute by minute second by second, we're hearing Leonardo DiCaprio, Ben Affleck, Ellen DeGeneres, Jason Bateman, Ashley Tisdale and Tobey Maguire are some of latest celebs to sign on for Friday's Hope for Haiti telethon, which will be broadcast on E! and E! Online...
Not only will Taylor Swift perform in L.A., but she's also going to answer calls for the phone bank.
The Obamas may also pitch in with a pretaped message, according to sources.
Avatar star Zoe Saldanawill be a part of the telethon, but she tells us that she's also working with Avon—she's the beauty company's newest celeb face—in helping raise disaster relief funds, which already includes $500,000 to the American Red Cross and Doctor's Without Borders.
Maggie Gyllenhaal told us at the recent BAFTA/LA Tea Party that she immediately called folks at Partners in Health, an organization that she became involved with a few a months ago, when she learned about the earthquake.
"They sent me an email telling me about all the things they are doing on the ground," the Crazy Heart star said. "But they also said, 'What we need right now is financial support—please spread the word!'"

Johnson caps Dover season sweep
Updated: September 27, 2009, 8:27 PM ETAssociated Press
DOVER, Del. -- Jimmie Johnson dominated again in winning a crucial Chase race.
It's become about as routine this time of year on the sports calendar as the start of the NFL season or the baseball playoff stretch drive. If he keeps driving like this, NASCAR can expect another regular fixture in November: Johnson hoisting the series trophy and celebrating a championship.
Johnson thumped the competition in the second Chase for the championship race, sweeping the season races at Dover ...

One of the local attractions to the NFL draft is the University of Miami's talent in it. A pro scout asked what a lot of people with lesser football knowledge (like me) have asked: "How'd they go 6-7 again? Something was wrong there."
Could the Dolphins do worse than pick a Miami player in every round? The Dolphins aren't an exact fit, because tackle Ereck Flowers isn't what this team needs with its top pick (my colleague Omar Kelly, who loves him some offensive linemen, might disagree.) But here's what an All-UM draft would look like by round:
1. Flowers. He's young and still developing and can be a NFL tackle for the next dozen years.

Sodermalm hotels
Sodermalmis located on a large island just outside of Stockholm. Rather than being called its own city, though, the area is designated as a district within the larger city itself. Despite its inclusion in the city's metro area, visitors to Sodermalm will find that the district exudes its own offbeat personality, serving as home to unique shops, niche bars, and impressive architectural sites. After dark, the area comes alive with the opening of trendy nightclubs such as Bar Nada, OchHimlenDartill, and Hornstull Strand, perfect for tourists who want to enjoy a night on the town.
- Visit some of the many notable Stockholm religious sites located in Sodermalm, including Hogalid Church, Maria Magdalena Church, and Saint Eric's Cathedral, some of which date back to the 1600s.
- Travel to the top of Soder Torn, the tallest high-rise building in all of Stockholm, to get a breathtaking aerial view of the city and its skyline from its 86 meter-tall tower.
- Browse among some of Sodermalm's eclectic boutiques and shops in the SoFo section (the area south of Folkungagatan), including Judits Second Hand and StockholmsStadsmission.
Visitors who are flying into Stockholm typically arrive at Arlanda Airport, the largest air travel facility in the region. However, since the terminal is located 40 kilometres outside the city centre, tourists will have to take the Arlanda Express Train or the city's public bus route from the airport to the downtown section. Reaching Sodermalm is fairly easy for visitors, since the area is serviced by several metro and commuter rail lines. Both the red and green metro lines travel to Sodermalm, as does the commuter rail system and the Saltsjobanan suburban rail system.

Grade 9-10
Writing WHST.9-10.9
Draw evidence from informational texts to support analysis, reflection, and research.
Set the Stage
Text evidence time! This standard asks students to use details from the text in order to answer a question, bolster an argument, or support an inference. English teachers love this one, so hopefully your students will already be pretty good at it. Your job will be to show them how their mad text evidence skills translate to your subject area. Any time students are asked to answer a question, give an interpretation, make a prediction, make an inference, or state a claim, they should be able to point to relevant text evidence that supports their thinking. Make them prove it to you!
Dress Rehearsal
Your history teacher has asked you to read about the Great Depression which began in 1929 with the crash of the stock market, as if you're not depressed enough. Your assignment is to make a list of events that caused the nation's greatest economic disaster in history. Once noted, decide whether these events are interrelated or how they contributed to the Great Depression.
Reading the section, "The Nation's Sick Economy," you record major ideas and important details that better describe those main points. Then, you step back and ask yourself what it all means; that is, you analyze the information and draw conclusions.
In your research of the text, you find several main ideas, many related to each other. You note that due to the end of World War I, demand for certain industries declined, such as mining, lumbering, railroad, and steel. A major upheaval in the farming industry also occurred, and the demand for food shipped overseas dropped.
Farmers, having extended their credit for land and crop resources to meet earlier demands, could not pay back their enormous loans. Prices dropped and many lost their farms. This, in turn, hurt the banking industry that had extended those loans.
As wages began to decline, American spending power lessened, income distribution became markedly uneven, jobs became scarce, and the credit industry blossomed. Many Americans who had invested in stocks during rosier times began to sell them off. Values declined, and stocks plummeted. Businesses closed causing a further drop in employment rates while more and more banks failed, impacting economies worldwide.
In the case of the events preceding the Great Depression, you conclude that the following factors were the main causes: the decline of demand for American goods overseas after World War I; the failure of the agricultural industry; easy access to credit; and unequal distribution of income between the rich and the poor.
The ending of the war seemed to have set off a chain of events that, when combined, contributed to the great fall of the American economy like a house of cards. You use this line of reasoning to create a written report or answer questions presented by your teacher.
Danzer, Gerald, et al. The Americans. Illinois: McDougall Littell, 2005.
That's a Wrap
In this standard, your students have learned to use text evidence to answer questions and support their claims. Through analysis of the information from the text, they can better draw conclusions about the subject matter being addressed. Even better, if you can make your students masters of text evidence, they should be able to answer any text-based question and prove that their thinking is correct. Nothing depressing about that!
Working with Quotations
Use direct evidence from the following passage in order to answer each question or support each statement below.
The Benefits of Stress… in Plants
Chronic stress in humans has been implicated in heart disease, weight gain, and diabetes, among a host of other health problems. Extreme environments, a source of chronic stress, present a challenge even for the hardiest organisms, and plants are no exception. Yet, some species manage to survive, and even thrive, in stressful conditions.
A recent article by Dr. Yuri Springer in the November issue of the American Journal of Botany finds that certain wild flax plants growing in poor soils have succeeded in balancing the stress in their lives—these plants are less likely to experience infection from a fungal pathogen. Walking the fine line between the costs associated with surviving under stressful conditions and the benefits that may be derived from growing in an environment with fewer interactions with antagonistic species is a tricky balancing act.
For plants, serpentine soils are one example of an extreme environment. Serpentine soils are those that provide a stressful medium for plant growth due to features of the soil, such as a rocky texture, low water-holding capacity, high levels of toxic metals, and/or low levels of necessary nutrients.
Springer assessed the prevalence of fungal infections in species of the wild flax genus. Wild flax provides a model system to study serpentine tolerance; the species exhibits a range of tolerance to soil with low levels of calcium, a necessary nutrient for plant survival. He examined the correlation between disease symptoms and tolerance to serpentine soils in the context of evolutionary relationships among the species.
Springer found that wild flax populations growing in serpentine soils displayed a reduction in fungal infection. These results support the hypothesis that stressful environments may be attractive to plants because they provide a refuge from pathogens; however, the plants need to be able to survive in these extreme ecosystems. In wild flax, the fungal pathogen may have difficulty infecting plants that have low levels of calcium in their tissues due to low levels in the soil. Alternatively, the plants growing in a low nutrient soil may allocate much of their resources to defense against pathogens and herbivores due to the high costs of replacing tissue.
Based on the putative evolutionary history of the wild flaxes, tolerance to serpentine soils has evolved rapidly and repeatedly in the genus or was present in the ancestors of these wild flaxes and lost in several lineages. This is the first study to attempt to quantitatively explain how plants have evolved a specialization to serpentine soils and ultimately may help to explain floristic diversity in these unique environments.
