This is an excellent recipe! I followed it as written and served it over mashed potatoes. Wow! My husband and I loved it. I will definitely cook this again and again. Just a side note: Zinfandel wine goes very well with this dish.
Very good! I served with rice but I think the mashed potatoes would have been better. Will make again with mashed potatoes next time. I loved the addition of tomatoes along with the peppers and onions. I also used chicken bouillon instead of vegetable, as I didn't have any. Thanks for a great recipe!

I've decided that a great number of the "supporters" she has on the ning are either 1) sock puppets/alter egos or 2) people who are just playing with her and feeding her delusion.
Circuit Breaker
Membership numbers are variable on Ning. If people are suspended, the total includes them in some places, like the Ning member counts in emails from Ning. Suspension tracks a person who tries to return with the same email address. However, if an account is deleted, the person is not counted as a "member," but can sign up again since their email address has been removed from that network. So, to say there are 745 members depends on where you are getting the total from. The "Members" tab (which last known was removed from public view on that ning) total is the correct figure.

One night when I was in junior high, my recently retired stepfather was innovating in the kitchen. He was a burgeoning cook, with lots of time on his hands. Dinner that night was some sort of egg-based concoction, broiled on cookie sheets, with canned sardines mixed in, just for fun. After a few bites, my mom and I went out for pizza. My stepfather asked us to bring him back a calzone.
The broiled egg/sardine fiasco is an example of innovation gone wrong. There were no real consequences, though, aside from some food that went uneaten. But in different contexts, innovation gone wrong can really hurt - and ruin peoples' lives.
In my opinion, "innovation" is an overused buzzword. There's danger in this, because at its core, innovation is experimentation. And many experiments shouldn't be entered into lightly - like those that involve finance, especially at the consumer level.
The current recession reflects the consequences of experiments in finance that go badly. I am glad that as a nation we are shining a light on the way exotic financial instruments, arguably the fuel for the meltdown, were mismanaged. But I think we'd lose the sliver of silver lining presented here if we didn't step back and seriously consider a new policy framework for innovation (experimentation) in financial markets.
There is a raging debate in Washington over how financial institutions and products should be regulated so we can better avoid future meltdowns. This debate is critical for the nation's fiscal health. But before we start writing new regulations, I believe we need to pause and establish some core policy principles, rooted in the notion of first doing no harm. The abundance of harm in this economy makes this obvious, at least to me. The pain of Americans going through this recession is a visceral reminder of what happens when experimenting in financial markets happens without any thought of the ramifications, or consequences for "innovators" who plow ahead knowing the damage they might cause.
Some of my banker pals are probably unfriending me on Facebook right now, muttering something about the solution being in the marketplace, not government. But really, how can leaders in finance tell Americans, with a straight face, that they have all the answers after everything that's happened? That's like inviting you over for dinner and serving broiled eggs and sardines from a cookie sheet.

It's okay if you haven't completed BioShock Infinite yet. Composer Garry Schyman hasn't had a chance to either (at least when we recorded this), but we did get a chance to discuss Infinite's score, Elizabeth's theme, and what it was like to work with Irrational Games' creative director and co-founder Ken Levine. Now if you have finished the game and want to be exposed to numerous spoilers, we did a spoilercast right over here.
Like the previous games, BioShock Infinite's setting and atmosphere is captivating in many ways. The period art, the re-recorded music of the era, the cryptic audio logs, the discarded hot dogs... Columbia may not be as gloomy and mysterious as the corridors of Rapture but it is definitely one of our favorite places to explore. The soundtrack is available if you get the Premium and Songbird limited edition of the game (highly recommended).

Allen family pulls together to accomplish amazing things
When her daughter Janice was just four months old, Patricia Allen received some unexpected news that would change her life forever.
"I got a letter from the hospital saying she had failed her hearing test," recalled Allen.
"It was something that was pretty hard – looking at this baby for four months, thinking everything was OK, only to find out she was deaf. I just didn't know what to do."

Rotary Club's guest speakers bring information, fun
On a recent Thursday, when a regular program for Tunica Rotary's weekly meeting had not materialized, this writer recorded members reminiscing about all facets of the local club experience, from heritage to traditions, from projects to programs.
Of some 4,000 over the course of the club's 83-year history, two programs still stand out in members' minds: cited as the "worst program ever" was a slide show of dental problems and procedures presented by the late Dr. Tom Turpin; and the best, a demonstration of exercise techniques by a young and presumably nubile – and somewhat scantily dressed – young woman.

in response to MitzrI have been seeing calendar items not appearing on the iPhone, but still showing up in the Outlook Calendar. They are updated meeting requests from what I can tell. I am hoping 4.2 magically fixes some of the issues.
Sherpa-Joe Jan 6, 2011 10:13 AM
in response to MitzrI have the exact same problem. One work-around solution, which really isn't a solution, is to drag the attachment into iCal. Is should then show up. At this point, you can hit Accept/decline IN iCAL and it stays. Otherwise if you hit ACCEPT/DECLINE in Mail, it disappears. I've found invitations in the trash of Mail, but sometimes they disappear all together.
I'm in the banking business. I have a brand new MacBook Pro (my 5th), but my business world lives in the world of PCs (unfortunately). This is a very serious problem for someone that needs to function in both worlds.
GeekBoy.from.Illinois Jan 6, 2011 11:27 AM
in response to MitzrI haven't seen this issue, but I have seen plenty of cases where invitations where I have not accepted nor declined have still gone onto my calendar and sounded the reminder alarms on my iPhone. I have even seen one case where a meeting was declined, and it still went onto my calendar and sounded its alarm.
ksgordon Sep 7, 2011 9:03 AM
in response to Mitzr
I have the same problem, and it's driving me (and my Outlook-using colleagues) mad. Is there some solution? It used to be that when I got an Outlook-originated meeting inviation, clicking on the .ics file would automatically create the event in iCal, and I could accept or reject the invitation. Now, I get an email with no text and a ribbon above the header with an iCal logo, some info about the meeting, and Maybe, Decline and Accept buttons. Clicking on any of the buttons sends the email to Trash and does nothing to create an event. How do I change this back to something useful?
lior Sep 16, 2011 8:49 AM
in response to ksgordon
Finally! found a thread talking about this problem! I had a fruitless talk with apple support...here's what I figured out if you have that grey colored bar and ical icon with maybe accept delete but no visible attachment to click on:
go into prefs in either/both ical and apple mail
Mail Prefs: General: Add invitations to ical: select never
iCal prefs: Advanced: uncheck "automatically retrieve invites from mail"
this step should get rid of the grey bar and present you with an ics attachment icon, which you can double click and confirm enters into ical.
At this point, you may encounter another PITA: you have no control over the calendar selection the appointment gets added to. AFAIK, it defaults to the topmost calendar you have in ical (on the left hand sidebar).
I also can't confirm at this point if your acceptance results in an email to the inviting party...
post results here...
John White10 Sep 28, 2011 12:27 PM
in response to lior
Well I'm still having the same problem. Each time someone sends me a invitation from outlook I get the gray bar at the top with the Maybe Decline and Accept but no attached file. I just got this new MacBook with Lion on it and this is the first time I have had issue.
The one thing that does work that did not for me in the past is that when I do hit Accept the sender can see it.
I did what lior said but still no luck.
ksgordon Sep 28, 2011 12:56 PM
in response to John White10
I have managed to solve the problem for me. This may not work for everyone.
The email account that I use to get the messages that have Outlook-originated meeting requests is an Exchange account. I went to iCal>Preferences>Accounts and set up a calendar using that same Exchange account. Now when I click on the Accept button in an email in Mail, the appointment gets set up in that Calendar.
By the way, that solution was pointed out to me by someone at Apple phone support. I went to a local Apple Store genius, who couldn't figure it out and suggested that my only recourse would be to use Outlook for Mac instead of Mail and iCal. Which I didn't want to do
John White10 Sep 28, 2011 1:31 PM
in response to ksgordon
Thank you so much that worked for me.
Will Stewart May 22, 2013 8:25 AM

FTR another workaround is to find the attached .ics file (in the Mail folder) using Spotlight (using the event title for example) - then double-click it in the search list. It now opens in Calendar and behaves correctly (that is it offers an entry and accepts/declines as selected).
The trick seems to be to get the file opened directly (in Calendar) rather than getting the gray bar. I assume that the message delete command is in the .ics file and that the Mail app (buit not the Calendar app) obeys this before getting to the entry/response details. Sounds like a bug for Apple to fix....
Will Stewart May 22, 2013 9:10 AM
in response to ksgordon
I just did this for my university exchange account & it worked fine - BUT this also created a new account in Mail (I created it in iCal) and deleted ALL mail in all excange accounts! It also appears to have re-set the prefs for these accounts in Mail.
I am trying to get this back and have got somewhere (as far as a year ago so far). Life is still possible because my iPad seems not affected and behaves normally.
I have always hated IMAP and all exchange systems because of their power to damage/delete files already transferrred to my machine (which should be sacrosanct!) - POP was so much simpler and more reliable! Though I admit that the university's implementation may be bad - gmail seems fine.
Roger Traill Dec 23, 2013 4:07 PM
in response to Will Stewart
Lior's solution does not work in Mavericks as there is no "automatically retrieve invites from mail" option in Calendar.
I managed to solve it by simply selecting "Calendar" as one of my options in System Preferences/Internet Accounts for my exchange account. It then automatically added a calendar called "calendar" under my exchange account name in the application "Calendar". Clicking on accept placed the correct appointment in that Calendar.

Does anyone know how to stop a diary invitation (received to Mail) from moving to the Mail Trash folder once it's been accepted? I would like to keep them in my inbox.

Five stars plus for an amazing one pot meal. Had to omit the shrooms to keep hubby happy, used fresh thyme rather than dried, and since there were no small reds in the house I quartered the larger red potatoes and cooked on a very low heat for about 4 hours till the meat was fork tender. I especially enjoyed the addition of zucchini and red pepper. Made for ZWT5.

Immunoassays Are Incorporating Brighter Signals and...
Standardized Assays Are Driving Preemptive Genotyping...
NIH's National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI) says a reorganization that takes effect Oct. 1 will better enable it to accommodate broad changes in its mission stemming from the expanding scope of genomics research.
NHGRI will carry out a key component of a strategic plan released last year when it divides its Extramural Research Program into four new divisions, and elevates to division status its offices for administration and management; and for policy, communications, and education.
Laura Lyman Rodriguez, Ph.D., will head the new Division of Policy, Communications and Education; while Executive Officer M. Janis Mullaney will lead the new Division of Management with Ellen M. Rolfes as deputy executive officer.
The Extramural Research Program will be divided into divisions of:
Directors and deputies will all serve in an acting capacity until the appointments are formally approved.
The reorganizational changes begin with the Oct. 1 start of the 2013 federal fiscal year, and come more than a year after NHGRI released a strategic plan, Charting a Course for Genomic Medicine from Base Pairs to Bedside. It envisioned the institute focusing on five research domains: understanding the structure of genomes; understanding the biology of genomes; understanding the biology of disease; advancing the science of medicine; and improving the effectiveness of healthcare. The plan's release was pegged to the 10th anniversary of the first analysis of the human genome sequence.
"The mission of the institute has dramatically evolved from the singular focus on the Human Genome Project, for which NHGRI was created, to pursuing an exciting and broad set of opportunities for using genomics to advance medical science and improve human health. NHGRI needs an organizational structure concordant with this expanded mission," NHGRI Director Eric D. Green, M.D., Ph.D, said in a statement.
One theory for explaining "success," put forward by Amy Chua Jed Rubenfeld, posits cultural traits such as a superiority complex, personal insecurity and impulse control. Union College professors Joshua Hart and Christopher Chabris counter that intelligence, conscientiousness, and economic advantage are the most likely elements of success, regardless of ethnicity. Do you think that Hart-Chabris make a better argument for achieving success than the Chua-Rubenfeld theory?

Lord & Taylor in talks to buy Fortunoff
There are 24 comments on the Newsday story from Jan 31, 2008, titled Lord & Taylor in talks to buy Fortunoff. In it, Newsday reports that:Lord & Taylor, the venerable New York City retailer, is in talks aimed at acquiring Fortunoff, a Long Island institution that has been struggling in the last few years, a source close to the matter said ...

Might be a good fit. My suggestion would be to retreat back to Westbury and get back to their roots, ie, high end products at reasonable prices, classy sales help,(no gum chewing teenagers talking on their cellphones while trying to ring you up). But, what do I know?
#3 Jan 31, 2008
Sounds like a plan.
#4 Jan 31, 2008
Some of us have spent more than half of our lives at Fortunoff. Belief in what they stood for is why people stayed loyal and devoted. My heart goes out to the family who had to make a very difficult choice. Let's hope that what Max and Clara built from nothing stays as the icon it is.
#5 Jan 31, 2008
Sure will miss Furtunoff's. Perhapes, Lord and Taylor can do something novel and maintain the store as it is.
#6 Jan 31, 2008
Fortunoff's. Well, WCBS-FM is back on the air, so, maybe this is a new trend for New York to maintain what actually works instead of what doesn't work and distroying our history.
#7 Jan 31, 2008
Hopefully Fortunoff's will not be lost as it remains a unique store with useful and tasteful products at reasonable prices. Still miss B. Altman's.
Since: Aug 07
#8 Jan 31, 2008
The last time I visited Fortunoff's in Westbury was almost 20 years ago and it was like taking a field trip to someplace exotic and exciting - tons of different departments with merchandise ranging from affordable to totally untouchable. What they call "streamlining" is nothing more than sacrificing customer service for quick, easy profits to pad the bottom line without regard for the long-term effect on customer loyalty - typical myopic Wall Street mentality with the self-fulfilling prophecy of bankruptcy. Lose the customers, lose the store guys!
#9 Jan 31, 2008
What put the family in financial trouble was the building of the white plains blttoed elephant where saks went out. Dumping way too much money into rebuilding that facility as an ego booster was just really bad business. Everyone knew it was a bad idea. But the family thought otherwise. I think Max is turning over in his grave.
#10 Jan 31, 2008
I am shocked to hear that lord & Taylor is going to buy Fortunoff
United States
#11 Jan 31, 2008
Niche stores don't scale well. There is something quirky and special about the family atmosphere. Investors come in and think they can expand it, but that's not true.
Even Starbucks, not a direct comparable but with some similarities, is pulling back now. In stores, the sales help has a lot to do with the "customer experience" but I will not be politically incorrect here. This is a very difficult part of expanding beyond family companies. Any buyer ought to ask the question about whether something could scale, or be franchised, in essence. The product suffers greatly, you alienate customers. I keep thinking about Hermans Sporting Goods- a three generation family store that became a joke when a conglomerate bought it and expanded it right into bankruptcy. An old guy with a hexxent is a much more effective salesperson than the alternatives.
With some luck, the new buyers will keep it as a very niche upper end product line- sort of like hotel chains or cruise ship owners can segregate very high end brands. And, if they don't, the family can buy it back for pennies on the dollar in a few years.
#12 Jan 31, 2008
Fortunoff has not kept up the times, younger people Find Pottery Barn and others like C & B hipper places to shop. Blame the invetment firms that take over family businesses and bleed them dry. Its all about the Greenbacks.
#13 Jan 31, 2008
...and just who do you think is trying to BUY Fortunoff's?
BINGO!, An investment company einstein.

Poor Fortunoff's - over 80 years of success and a poor decision to sell sends all their hard work down the drain.
#17 Feb 1, 2008
Who purchased 75% of the company years ago and put it into the situation today."Investment Firm"!!!, Not the Fortunoff Family.
#18 Feb 1, 2008
Poor fortunoff does not apply, the family has millions, Poor suppliers and customers are really the ones should get some pity.$$$$$
#19 Feb 1, 2008
Hey Mr Einstein read this,After the Manhattan-based Trimaran Capital Partners and The Kier Group took control, officials talked about streamlining Fortunoff's broad inventory while retaining its classic style and appealing to a younger customer. But Cohen said that the "streamlining" strategy may have worked against the chain, because limiting the assortment of merchandise may have diminished the unique experience associated with Fortunoff
#20 Feb 1, 2008
Lord and Taylor is poorly run and managed in my opinion. In the last few years I have stopped shopping there because of the non-existent sales help. There is no one to help when you are looking for a specific item or you have to interrupt sales people from chatting rather than serving customers to get rung up. Lord and Taylor no longer values their customers.
Too bad Fortunoff's will now sink to that level.
#21 Feb 1, 2008
Joel Kier --who bought the company in 2004 -- turns all the retailers he touches into mud. He's run other folks into the ground like San Francisco Music Box and The Museum company. That fortunoff is in trouble is no great surprise.
#22 Feb 1, 2008
Why would Lord and Taylor want to sully its name?

Gwynne Dyer - World Watch
You probably haven't given much thought to the problems in Mali, but United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki Moon has, and his advice on military intervention in that West African country could be summed up in two words: forget it. Although, being a diplomat, he actually used a great many more words than that.
OPINION: Mali's 14 million people are almost all Muslims, but there is a deep ethnic divide between the black African majority in the southern half of the country and the Tuaregs (only 10 per cent of the population) who dominate the desert northern half. Last March, a military coup in the capital, Bamako, distracted the Malian army long enough for Tuareg separatists to seize control of the entire north.
The Tuareg separatists had been in business for many years, but an influx of weapons and fighters from Libya after the fall of the Gaddafi regime gave them a new impetus. Having driven government troops out of the north and declared the independent nation of Azawad, however, the separatists were then rapidly pushed aside by Islamic extremists who declared a jihad against practically everybody.
A military coup in a West African nation, even if the government then lost control of half the country to separatists, would normally be of interest only to other West African states. The Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) might back military intervention to reunite the country, or it might not, but the rest of the world would ignore it. Not this time.
What set alarm bells ringing in the United States and Europe was the fact that al Qaeda in the Maghreb (AQIM) is a major force in the alliance of Islamist fundamentalists that now controls northern Mali. The mere mention of al Qaeda sets Western governments salivating like Pavlov's dogs, and the issue of re-conquering northern Mali suddenly got on to the international agenda.
Western countries have been pushing for a UN Security Council resolution authorising military action against the rebels for months, and in October they got their way. The resolution gave regional leaders 45 days to provide plans for an international military intervention to oust the rebels in northern Mali, and the US government recently said that war was now "inevitable".
At that point Ban Ki Moon wrote his letter to the Security Council condemning the rush to military action: "I am profoundly aware that if a military intervention in the north is not well conceived and executed, it could worsen an already fragile humanitarian situation and also result in severe human rights abuses. Fundamental questions on how the force would be led, sustained, trained, equipped and financed remain unanswered.
"A military operation may be required as a last resort to deal with the most hardline extremists and criminal elements in the north," Ban conceded, "but before that stage is reached, the focus must be on initiating a broad-based and inclusive national dialogue." Diplomatic buzz-words, certainly, but he is fighting for time and that's all he has.
However, US drones are already overflying northern Mali on a daily basis. US Defence Secretary Leon Panetta has refused to rule out direct American support for training or other operations on the ground in Mali. A real war will soon start in Mali.
It would involve the same kind of UN intervention force that has been fighting the Islamist al-Shabab militia in Somalia: African countries provide the troops, and Western countries cover the costs. But whereas the Ugandan, Kenyan and Burundian armies that are doing the heavy lifting in Somalia are reasonably competent soldiers, the West African armies that would provide the troops in Mali are not.
So who will pick up the pieces if the ECOWAS force, already unpopular in Mali, fails to recover the north? Probably Western troops, but that would trigger powerful anti-Western reactions all over Africa. It might produce a military victory and reunify Mali by force, but it would be a political disaster. The extremists could not hope for a better recruiting tool.
This whole operation is being driven by a reflex panic about terrorism. But northern Mali is a very long way from anywhere else, and there are no flights out.
The better approach would be to wait for the rebels in the north to fall out and start fighting one another, which they probably will. Meanwhile, train and equip Mali's army for the task of retaking the north by force, if that ever becomes necessary, although the fact that it is run by the turbulent junior officers who made last March's disastrous coup doesn't help.
Still, Ban Ki Moon is right. Sometimes, the best thing to do is as little as possible.

Representing the ultimate formalwear for men, White Tie is worn in the evening for royal ceremonies, state banquets, the opera, the ballet and balls. It may also be the specified dress code for formal evening weddings. Dressing appropriately needn't be a headache, as here at Dobell we offer an extensive range of all elements of White Tie attire, at prices that will delight.
White tie is also known as 'full evening dress', 'full dress', 'evening dress' or, simply 'tails'. For men, traditional White Tie requires a black single-breasted tail coat, worn unbuttoned, and black dress trousers with two lines of braid down each outside leg. A real distinction in the outfit is that the coat is shorter in front than a morning coat.
You'll also need a white Marcella cotton shirt, which is worn with a starched wing collar and double cuffs. Remember that the shirt will have cufflinks and studs rather than buttons, and we are pleased to offer a lovely selection of these.
Next, a white Marcella bow-tie, and a white Marcella evening waistcoat, both of which will ideally match the shirt exactly. The waistcoat can be double or single-breasted – which is low cut at the front and fastened with three mother of pearl buttons. Don't forget your highly polished or black patent lace-up shoes, worn with black silk socks.
Finally, your top hat sir! This is optional but undoubtedly a top hat will add real pizzazz to your White Tie ensemble. There are many other accessories to consider, such as white gloves, dress scarves, and dress canes.
Being fully dressed for White Tie will make you feel incredibly smart and special, and we think it's well worth investing in the complete look for what may be a very memorable, once in a lifetime occasion.

Topic: Shrubs
Title: Evergreen Shrub for shade in Rye, New York
Answered by: Mike Tomme
QUESTION:Hello - I am looking for native shrubs for partial/mostly shade in Rye, New York. Evergreen, perennial and no larger than 4' in height. The bed is 68' in front of an elementary school facing south with big trees in front of it that gets sun in winter, mostly shade in summer. Soil is dryish. I prefer low maintenance.
The Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center is committed to the growth, propagation and protection of plants native not only to North America but to the area in which those plants grow naturally. So, Mr. Smarty Plants is going to set off in search of plants that are native to your area of New York (Westchester County) and meet the requirements you have outlined.
A search of the native plant data base using criteria of native to New York, less than six feet in height, grows in shade or partial shade, and is evergreen, came up with good news and bad news. The bad news is the search only identified one plant. The good news? The search didn't take very long.
The plant the search identified is Gaultheria procumbens (Checkerberry) - this plant has conspicuous fragrant flowers and produces berries that may last into the winter.
According to the USDA, checkerberry native to Westchester County, New York.

A Blast from the Past,
This review is from: School Spanish Course (Paperback)
A old 'O' level text book which addresses the Spanish language in a good amount of depth. The Book gives a good amount of vocabulary but a reader needs to ensure some of the words and grammar are in keeping with modern usage and the different regions of the Spanish-speaking World.
The grammar aspect of the book covers the imperfect, present, present progressive and preterite tenses but without mention of the differences in usage throughout the Spanish-speaking World. More importantly, the Book looks at the usage of the present and imperfect subjunctive. Coverage of these tenses is not comprehensive in the modern 'O' and 'A' levels, which leaves a student short if they want to pursue the language to fluency.
As another reviewer remarks, it is a shame there are no answers to the questions in each Chapter of the Book. The Book would do well if updated.
I used the Book to re-acquaint myself with a language I had pursued to a high level almost a quarter of a century ago. Of great assistance.

Proceedings of the third international symposium held in Erice, Italy, June 1-8, 1990. Basel: J. C. Baltzer, IMACS Ann. Comput. Appl. Math. 9, 263-266 (1991). Summary: Approximation by spectral methods of differential equation in unbounded domains is in general performed by Laguerre functions, i.e., Laguerre polynomials multiplied by a decaying exponential. Convergence results are derived from approximation properties of suitable projection or interpolation operators in the discrete spaces. We show convergence estimates for these operators in appropriate weighted Sobolev spaces. The weight function is chosen to obtain uniform convergence in the whole domain.

Internet Exchange ECIX Of Germany Upgrades To 40 Gigabit Ethernet With Extreme Networks Scalable Data Center Solution
SANTA CLARA, Calif., Dec. 11, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Extreme Networks Inc. (Nasdaq: EXTR) today announced that ECIX, the second-largest German Internet exchange, is offering upgraded network access featuring 40 GbE bandwidth and has chosen to support its network with Extreme Networks' award-winning BlackDiamond X8 switch. With its new technology, ECIX expects lower port costs for registered members as well as a reduction in operating and support costs. The European Commercial Internet Exchange (ECIX), with locations in Dusseldorf, Berlin and Hamburg, serves more than 120 carriers and Internet service providers. The Exchange is operated by Berliner Peering GmbH. Due to the rapid growth in data volume ECIX decided to replace its current switch infrastructure with new systems better suited to meeting future demands with a modernized, scalable resilient Ethernet architecture. The BlackDiamond X8 switching systems will be implemented in all of its locations.Extreme Networks BlackDiamond X8 switch is purpose built for use in large virtual data computing centres as well as in cloud environments and features a high port density and great expandability. The system offers 20-Terabit non-blocking with up to 768 ports for 10 GbE or 192 ports for 40 GbE in a 14.5 RU chassis or 1/3 rack. ECIX currently operates 204 active physical ports, 52 of which are 10 gigabit ports. Its peak bandwidth is greater than 100 Gbps. At the moment 191 autonomous systems from carriers and internet service providers are connected. "Availability of the BlackDiamond X8 came for us at precisely the right time as we are upgrading our performance," said Stefan Wahl, CEO of Peering GmbH and Managing Director of ECIX. "For our members, price and availability are very important factors. With its high port density, extremely competitive price and the low energy consumption, the system offers comparatively reasonable costs per port which we can then pass on to our customers." In addition to cost factors other aspects also influenced the decision to change to Extreme Networks switching solutions. These included the support of NGN architectures and SDN, the planned future availability of 100 GbE and the modular Extreme XOS operating system.

Matched (Matched, #1)

Joanie's review
Jun 17, 12
Read in June, 2012
Typical YA distopian novel. It has struck me that there are a fair number of such novels aimed at the teen audience and relatively few aimed at adults. Hmmm. Like other books in this genre, the book explores the relative gains and losses of too much personal freedom and too much external control. The story wasn't unique in any way, but I'm giving it 3 stars for readability: I finished it in 1 sitting.

I'm sorry, LunarCrystal07. Clearly I was mistaken in thinking that you were a huge nerd. Instead, you're a standard issue pseudo-scenester Youtube attention whore who loves to send tl;dr emails to me about how they're in the navy now and how that's apparently supposed to instantly make them some kind of respectable person (gentlemen, start your hatemail) and completely atone for dreaming about Scott Bakula in the past. You have my sincerest apologies regarding this oversight. Furthermore, you just argued your own personality out of existence and with it went the only reason anyone would ever care about you.
I'd write more, but honestly you're such a boring person that I'm falling asleep at my desk. I guess it's not so much that you're unfuckable, as my original review implied, but that fucking you would probably render the fucker comatose as soon as you started rambling on about what you ate for breakfast or whatever the hell you talk about in bed.
Feel free to send me an email about YOUR NAVY CAREER and how I'm, like, omg sooooooooo totally wrong about how boring in bed you are. I mean, I know you will anyway, so I just thought I'd give you my expressed permission this time!
Critics Corner
Editors note - Critics Corner will not be featured for this review because literally every single comment in every single one of her videos is LunarCrystal07 and her boring-ass friends posting about their boring little lives. If you really want to read stuff like "ARR MATEY HOWS THE NAVY", or if you suffer from insomnia, please feel free to check out her video on YouTube rather than the embedded version here.
This is your typical consumer model throne. If you just want a cheap prop, it's fine. If you want to actually sit like a king, pony up the cash and get yourself a prosumer model. This entry level stuff is more for a duke or baron at best.
Do you wish to know what computers will be doing in the year to come? With a sigh I shall exert the minimal effort it takes to reveal all. Feel free to print out these predictions and share them with your friends via fax.

As you may have noticed, the most popular viral videos at any given time are amazingly banal, annoying, and cliched pieces of waste. It almost seems as if the internet naturally gravitates towards the worst possible Youtube and Google video selections. So it stands to reason that if the terrible videos become popular, then the unpopular videos must be awesome! We here at Something Awful present to you AwfulVision™, our own patented service dedicated to showcasing a wide selection of unpopular videos that apparently must be good! Welcome to Web 3.9.

Seattle, WAUSA
Hometown: Seattle, WA
October 26, 2011
Looking for ideas and inspiration and interested in connecting with others.
For the last 13 years or so. I had a couple group shows in San Francisco 10 years ago, but haven't done much formally here in Seattle since moving here in 2004.
I love nature photography and macro photography--looking for interesting shapes/spaces that you otherwise wouldn't notice unless you get really close. I also like using toy cameras and film.
