The private cloud: What it is (and isn't)
The private cloud is misunderstood. At this stage, vendors can be forgiven for not having a firm idea of what the private cloud is and how it can uniquely improve their processes. Too many service providers have branded legacy technologies as "cloud-based," warping buyers' expectations about what a private cloud actually is and should do. In some cases, what developers and testers get with these cloud-washed solutions are nothing more than heavily virtualized environments that offer little or none of the scalability, automation, self-service, and on-demand provisioning associated with cloud computing at-large.
As a result, organizations may think of the private cloud as simply a slight update to their internal IT systems, a fresh coat of paint on the same aging infrastructure that they have been looking to leave behind as new dynamic applications become more central to their businesses. They want a cloud platform that can enable more agile software lifecycles, with streamlined testing and abundant resources for developers, but these misconceptions may lead them to conclude that the public cloud is the only way to achieve these goals and facilitate quicker time-to-market, as well as higher programmer productivity.
The truth is that using a private cloud not only provides a productive dev/test environment, but also adds tangible advantages over running all workloads on public infrastructure. For starters, the unpredictable opex of using public cloud services can be replaced with fixed capex, mostly for high-end servers and appliances that provide the dedicated power for running tasks consistently. Accordingly, dev/test teams benefit from working in a single-tenant environment in which resources are rapidly and reliably provisioned and often come from appliances with superior specifications to public Infrastructure-as-a-Service machines.
Moreover, the private cloud boosts particular IT workflows, all while shielding these operations behind the company firewall. It provides high levels of security and control that make it ideal for safely developing and testing applications. Naturally, dev/test has been instrumental in shaping the private cloud's amenities for automation and self-service, along with the evolution of commercial solutions that leverage open source software to give teams maximum flexibility in configuring and customizing processes.
Some industry executives and observers have disputed the entire notion of the private cloud, arguing that it either has no agreed-upon definition or is already obsolete, but in reality its structures are readily discernible in data centers and on-premises systems that depend on it for these central IT, dev/test and quality assurance operations. These workflows all offer low-risk/high-reward opportunities for synthesizing the productive gains of cloud computing with dedicated hardware to obtain the best of both worlds.
While the private cloud has sometimes been cited for lacking the fundamental traits of cloud computing in general - on-demand service, scalability, self-provisioning and measurement - this argument only applies to virtualized environments that have been wrongly labeled. These depictions should not obscure the fact that private clouds are real, vital parts of IT infrastructure.
Why Do Testing and Development in a Private Cloud?
If development, and deployment of software, is a strategic everyday activity, then in most cases private clouds make sense. There is a common perception that controlling your IT destiny is complicated and expensive. But today, with highly evolved hardware and highly automated cloud platforms, operation of your own infrastructure is becoming easier and less expensive by the day.
Development and testing is a natural fit for cloud environments because superior access to resources leads to shorter wait times during critical processes (no more never-ending provisioning) and lower costs per unit tested. While these gains are theoretically attainable through any cloud platform, the private cloud provides distinctive advantages.
Start with infrastructure. Traditional testing environments are complicated to use and costly to maintain, taking up excessive space and consuming considerable power despite sitting idle for long periods of time. Firing up testing equipment every few months often leads to difficulty and frustration as teams try to ensure the consistency of all environments. Debugging times lengthen and application delivery is delayed.
Using a private cloud simplifies matters on both the hardware and software fronts. Testing resources can be set up and decommissioned as needed, obviating the need to keep instances running indefinitely on the public cloud. Private cloud virtualization enables compute, storage and networking to be scaled in accordance with application demands and a self-service Web portal can make this process easier. Some private cloud implementations connect to public infrastructure as needed, usually to provide additional automation, scalability or spillover, a phenomenon known as cloud bursting.
Still, would-be adopters may recoil at the perceived high cost of the private cloud, which is sometimes misleadingly set in stark contrast to the pay-as-you-go efficiency of the public cloud. In truth, improvements in hardware and public APIs have made the private cloud more affordable and reliable than ever before. It is no longer a cousin to the expensive, difficult-to-maintain systems that organizations once abandoned for the public cloud; rather, it is an increasingly vital component of modern IT, providing the security, control and performance needed for particular tasks, while also interacting with public platforms to open up a fuller range of services for developers and testers.
Using a Private Cloud Doesn't Mean Never Using the Public Cloud
The very term "private cloud" can be confusing, since it groups together a diverse range of infrastructure and software under one umbrella and sets them in opposition to remotely hosted services. This is a false dichotomy. Not all private clouds are equally capable, nor do they all share compatibility with public clouds as part of hybrid deployments, although the latter trait is becoming more common.
Accordingly, it makes sense to look at the private cloud on a case-by-case basis and assess them as tools and platforms for dev/test. Many of them can easily coexist with both legacy technologies and public cloud platforms to create an ideal environment for software development and deployment.
Public cloud providers have certainly taken note, with several of them modifying their services so that enterprise customers can, for example, feed information into big data tools from on-premises databases or other platforms. These moves speak to the ongoing demand for private clouds that not only have the most apparent amenities - security, dedicated hardware - but also offer highly efficient ways to handle workloads in different way depending on their requirements and on how they evolve.
More specifically, the private cloud is one way to reduce costs and still maintain advanced continuous integration. With the right combination of software and hardware, a private deployment enables excellent handling of servers and automation, as well as the use of plugins that can launch worker nodes on a public cloud for extra capacity. While organizations vary by the number of connections they make between in-house systems and the public cloud, the power of the private cloud is that it is flexible enough to address a wide range of use cases by applying cloud computing principles to key processes.
As such, the private cloud can be an important part of a hybrid deployment, with capabilities that support certain workflows in ways that the public cloud cannot. Resources can be provisioned quickly, leading to faster time to market. Dev/test can be run at low cost on the private cloud, with the workload shifted unchanged to a public cloud for production. Far from being an expensive relic or the antithesis of convenient self-service cloud computing, the private cloud, as well as the hybrid setups it may be part of, is a powerful platform for producing, testing and deploying software, and one that is often equipped with public APIs for additional versatility.
Startups and Service Providers Are Among Many Organizations with Private Clouds
How does the private cloud look in action? Organizations across many verticals have set up private clouds to make software deployment easy and economical. Private cloud is most readily associated with handling sensitive data for heavily regulated industries such as finance and healthcare, but its use cases are actually varied and particularly relevant for programmers.
It is common for startups to go with the public cloud to get what seems like the point-and-click convenience of unlimited resources. After a while, however, many of these companies realize that they can obtain better speeds on their own dedicated hardware, with the added benefits of better privacy and security compared to public cloud. Despite its rapid evolution, the public cloud is still very opaque, and users may get into situations in which they are overly reliant on average machines with specifications that cannot be adjusted. A private or hybrid cloud is a great way to get the infrastructure that the organization needs in order to reliably run workloads and get the most out of their investments.
While cost and security typically dominate any conversation about the private cloud, organizations should realize that it actually confers many more nuanced benefits, particularly for developers. Savings and data protection are critical, but a productive, transparent and highly configurable dev/test environment sets companies that use the private cloud up for long-term success in an increasingly complex cloud landscape.

VolcanElectric Mask: Skyscraper Protects Cities from Eruptions and Generates Electricity from Lava
Posted By Bridgette Meinhold On March 14, 2013 @ 5:24 pm In Architecture,carousel showcase,Environment,Gallery,Green Building,Renewable Energy | 2 Comments
Volcanic eruptions are generally regarded as a natural phenomenon best experienced from a distance. But a group of designers from China think they can tap into and harness a volcano's energy to produce electricity for nearby cities while protecting residents from the dangerous eruptions. Jing Hao, Zhanou Zhang, Xingyue Chen, Jiangyue Han, and Shuo Zhou received an Honorable Mention in the 2013 eVolo Skyscraper Competition for their VolcanElectric Mask, which proposes covering a volcano in a giant shield. The megalithic structure includes a co-generation plant to create electricity from volcanic heat, research facilities and even tourist attractions for when the volcano isn't set to explode.
VolcanElectric Mask is a design that could harness the untapped power of volcanoes to generate electricity and minimize damage and destruction from eruptions. Designed by Jing Hao, Zhanou Zhang, Xingyue Chen, Jiangyue Han, and Shuo Zhou from China, the proposal calls for a giant dome to cover the volcano, which works as a shield to prevent ash or tephra [2] from choking up the air. This proposal for their prototype was designed for the Popocatepetl Volcano [3], which is 70 km from Mexico City and is one of the ten most active volcanoes in the developed world. With 500,000 people living within 10 to 30 km from its crater, the volcano has the potential to cause considerable damage, but also to provide many with a source of renewable power [4].
The dome was inspired by the way the body works and takes specific design cues from the nervous system as well as skin. Hanging inside the dome are a series of screw-like tentacles that burrow into the volcano to monitor temperatures, predict eruptions and absorb CO2, which is then used to create dry ice. When the volcano is calm, the tentacles work to generate electricity from steam, which is created when collected rain water [5] comes into contact with lava. During this period of calm, the area is open to tourists for hiking, sight seeing and other exhibitions.
When an eruption is expected, the dome closes down in order to contain the tephra and lava and keep it from affecting nearby towns. Dry ice is expelled to protect the tentacles from damage and cool the lava. After the eruption is over the tephra is collected by the dome and shipped off for use in industrial processes. Research facilities within the dome provide a close up view of the volcano in action and help scientists improve prediction and energy generation through geothermal [6] and volcanic activity.

Mike Doughty
Minneapolis might as well be a second hometown for Mike Doughty: To most of the country, Soul Coughing were a quirky, pigeonhole-proof bunch of beatniks with modest appeal, but here, they were superstars. You could pin that on the support of local radio champions like Rev 105 and Radio K — and now the Current, which keeps tracks from Doughty's solo career in regular rotation. But you could also credit a mutual intersection between Doughty's accessibly strange, genre-hopping songwriting and Minnesota's offbeat, whatever-works pop sensibility. Doughty's acoustic tours have found enthusiastic, quick-sellout receptions when they hit the Twin Cities, and the "Question Jar" shows he'll be staging this Thursday, Friday, and Saturday attest to the rapport he has with his fan base. At these part music revue, part Q&A sessions, Doughty draws fascinating stories from audience-submitted inquiries, revealing the clockwork that propels his idiosyncratic songs.

(September). Forecast 0.2%, 0.5%.
Credit Suisse says: "September retail sales should post another
modest gain. Core details should look better than the headline,
which should be held back by a drop in auto sales. On the upside,
we look for a pick-up in food sales and a rebound in both building
materials and clothing after declines last month. However, chain
store sales appeared sluggish and could limit strength in general
merchandise, and gasoline prices were down slightly, making these
sales a potential small drag. Overall, our assumptions should be
consistent with real consumer spending growth of 1.6% in Q3,

Family: It was twin brother killed outside bar near Holly Hill
Published: Monday, October 7, 2013 at 4:33 p.m.
Last Modified: Monday, October 7, 2013 at 10:41 p.m.
The man shot to death outside a bar near Holly Hill was actually the twin brother of the person initially identified as the victim by the Sheriff's Office, according to family and officials.
Jerriell LeSane, 28, was shot early Saturday after a fight broke out in front of Papi's Bottle Club near Holly Hill. But initial reports said it was his fraternal twin brother Terrell LeSane who had died.
"It was Jerriell that was shot, not Terrell," the siblings' mother Cathy Bostic said Monday.
Bostic said the siblings' sister was at the hospital and she was the one who identified Jerriell to sheriff's investigators after he died.
"She didn't say 'Terrell,' she said 'Jerriell,' '' Bostic said.
Sheriff's officials said they believe they were told that the victim's name was Terrell. But investigators confirmed through fingerprints during the autopsy that the dead man was Jerriell LeSane, according to a Sheriff's Office press release.
Jerriell LeSane was taken to Halifax Health Medical Center in Daytona Beach where he died at 6:52 p.m. Saturday, sheriff's spokesman Gary Davidson said.
Deputies heard the fight breaking out just before closing time at the bar, about 5 a.m., Davidson said previously, and as they were driving to the club, heard a gunshot and saw the crowd scatter in Papi's parking lot. They found the fatally wounded man in the street.
Investigators released a still surveillance image of the suspect, who Davidson said appears to be a thin black male with dreadlocks. Investigators believe the suspect may spend time in the St. Augustine area.
Monday afternoon, Bostic said her son Jerriell, a star quarterback at Mainland High school in 2001, loved sports and was the father of three children, with a fourth child on the way. She said her other son Terrell was a defensive end at Mainland that same year.
Bostic said Jerriell did not go to Papi's on a regular basis. She said her sons were close.
Anyone with information about the shooting is asked to call sheriff's Investigator Jerry Betz, 386-254-1537 or Crime Stoppers, 888-277-TIPS (8477).

People need to know that several years ago he got a meth whore out of jail, took her home with him and woke up the next morning with his truck stolen. If memory serves me right I think it was actually a blazer. It was full of his raid gear and guns. Of course you won't find a police report on the incident anywhere because it wad swept under the rug and kept really quiet. I think her name was Michelle. Ask him about it and see what he says.
#2 Oct 23, 2012
I heard the same thing several months back but wasn't sure how true it is. Now I'm thinking maybe there is something to it. Hell it wouldn't surprise me any. Look at all the skanks he was screwing during his last term. Why do you think Pepper left him? That whole damn department needs cleaned up. Look at Barryhill any Gow. They both screwed around ON DUTY and nothing was ever done about it. It is funny though that Barryhill is paying child support for 5 kids and doesn't have any money left after payday.
#3 Oct 24, 2012
Another thing people should know is that Evenson has a convicted felon working as a reserve officer. Vince Willoughby pled guilty to felony charges earlier this year but is still working down there. Just check Case net if you don't believe me.
United States
#4 Oct 24, 2012
Mr. Evenson is a fine upstanding citizen who has worked tirelessly for this county. Quit getting on here and smearing his name.
#5 Oct 24, 2012
Really? Have you checked Case Net to see Vince Willoughby's record? Have you checked the Missouri Post website? One clearly shows that Vince is a felon and the other shows that he's still a reserve for Evenson. Are you also going to defend Barryhill or Gow screwing around on duty?
I'm not smearing Evenson's name. He's doing a pretty good job on his own.
#6 Oct 24, 2012
For the record I was told that story about his truck being stolen 2nd hand which is why I said to ask him about it and see what he says. Could be just a rumor but the person who told me about it seemed to know what they was talking about.
#7 Oct 24, 2012
Well hell I always heard where there's smoke there's fire so I bet theres probably something to the story. The only things I've heard Evenson do worth a shit was that stupid ass yellow dot program which he stole the idea for and the annual troop thing at Christmas time.
United States
#9 Oct 24, 2012
That's pretty harsh words for our sheriff. He is working hard to get meth and other drugs out of our county. He does a lot of work for little pay. Maybe you big mouthed folks could do better?
United States
#10 Oct 24, 2012
Are you guys bad mouthing Evenson, or his deputies? Cause it seems to me you are belittling Evenson's moral character through his deputies. You are not in his shoes, nor making his decisions. If you all are so concerned, take your "stories" to the newspaper and let them investigate it. Otherwise, take a chill pill, yo.
#12 Nov 7, 2012
Shut up about Robert.He has been an excellent sheriff. You guys are scumbags for talking trash.GET A LIFE LOSERS.
#13 Nov 7, 2012
Apparently you aren't talking to me.

#14 Nov 7, 2012
No not to you. Just to the losers who have to bad mouth a good person.Go out public and talk your trashing not hide on a gossip website under a fake name. LOSERS!!!!!
#15 Nov 12, 2012
You have got to be shitting me! That was my reaction when I heard yesterday that David Roark was going to be Mike Halls chief deputy. I think I voted for the wrong man. Roark is a bigger fuck up than Evenson. Looks like Mike Hall is well on his way to being a one term sheriff and he ain't even took office yet.
#16 Dec 1, 2012
is there word on who stays and who goes? Who was new-hires?
#17 Feb 8, 2013
Has Evenson been perfect? Probably not. But compared to previous administrations, he is a paragon of virtue. I have lived here for over 30 years and have seen some of the most amazing examples of incompetence, corruption, and just plain stupidity from the officers in prior administrations with their Junior Gestapos. I recall such things as county officers being busted by the Hiway patrol for drag racing brand new county cop cars down the hiway.. and being punished with two week suspensions WITH PAY. I never saw any of that sort of garbage while Bob was in office.
#18 Feb 8, 2013
Comes back to the saying "Be careful what you ask for, you may get it".
United States
#19 Feb 13, 2013
I admire Robert Evenson, even if he is a Democrat. One of the few I've ever voted for.

Nova Raspberry is an early-midseason variety that has a large size with wonderful flavor! You will be pleased with the large quantities of uniform, high-quality fruit and with its long fruiting season. Lauren has shown moderate to good winter hardiness. Space plants 22 to 24 inches apart. USDA zones 5-7 Floricane or summer bearing
Jaclyn Raspberry was the top producer of fall red raspberries in 2009, and ranked first in flavor (for three years running!) in our taste tests. This raspberry is my number one pick for yield, earliness, and flavor. Cane height is to 5 feet, fairly sturdy and vigorous, but I would still recommend staking or a trellis to hold up the beautiful, heavy fruit. USDA zones 4-8Primocane or fall bearing
Heritage Red Raspberry is a very sweet and productive variety that grows well in USDA zones 4-9. This variety is self-pollinating and best planted 3 feet apart. Heritage is one of the most widely adapted red raspberry cultivars, proving productive across many different climates within our country. Medium to large sized, bright red berries are produced on sturdy canes. Heritage seems to better handle weather extremes than most other cultivars. Primocane or fall bearing
Plants will be growing in gallon pots.
Raspberries produce two crops; the largest crop becomes ripe in the late summer/early fall on the tips of canes that grew throughout the summer. A second crop is then produced lower on those same canes early the next summer. To have two crops, the planting must be pruned as a summer bearer. Most everbearers will produce the best crop if NOT allowed to fruit in early summer. We recommend this approach for best results.

It's bittersweet to replay this session with Ian McLagan from 2005. The British keyboardist, who died in December 2014, was known as Mac to all of his friends — and if you met him, he was your friend. McLagan was a force for fun, and his gigs in his adopted hometown of Austin, Texas, were always rowdy.
An original member of The Small Faces with Steve Marriott, Ronnie Lane and Kenny Jones, McLagan was also in The Faces with Rod Stewart and Ron Wood. (The Hammond B-3 he plays here is the one he used in the original recording of Stewart's "Maggie May.") Hear McLagan's full set, sprinkled with classics from The Faces' repertoire, on this page.

AMHERST, NH: Romney said he thinks the U.S. needs to give the current troop surge a chance, and "look for any news you can get that it is helping."
"In my opinion, we have to increase our military," said Romney. He said he thinks the U.S. should add "100,000 more troops in order to spare some of those" on long tours of duty.
Mitt Romney entered a country store in Amherst in the second district of New Hampshire, where voters in November elected Democrat Rep. Paul Hodes to replace Republican incumbent Charles Bass, who had served the district since 1994. The former Massachusetts governor arrived on time and spoke quickly, wanting to get to questions for the majority of the event.
"I'd like to show a surge of support in our country for our troops," said Romney. "Let's stand united and show our support as their families are showing their sacrifice."
Romney cited an article than ran in Sunday's New York Times where Brookings scholars, who had spent eight days in Iraq, reported that 'It's too early to say but the surge might be successful.' Romney pointed out that these are scholars who have been critical of the war, and said their impression is significant.
Asked about health care, Romney said the legislation he approved in Massachusetts could be a model for other states. It's "no one size fits all... let states create their own plans," said Romney, and look for public-private partnerships to improve access to health care.
Romney said he thought the Senate and the president were right in not signing the Kyoto Treaty. "They don't call it American warming, they call it global warming," said Romney, saying the U.S. can't do this unilaterally.
Romney thanked the crowd for coming, saying there are not a lot of places in the country where people would gather to meet the candidates they way they do in New Hampshire. "It is a service you provide the nation," he said, pointing out that New Hampshire voters don't just watch 30-second ads to tell them how well Madison Avenue is doing, but instead come see for themselves how well candidates are doing.

NuNaturals Vanilla Stevia
Reviewer1659846님께서 Nov 23, 2010 에 작성하셨습니다.
A great product. Supperior for coffee. A little dropper does the trick. An excellent alternative to other sweeteners. Priced right for mutiple bottles. great customer service and fast shipping.
Takes some getting used to
Reviewer1171437님께서 Nov 22, 2010 에 작성하셨습니다.
When I first starting using this, i didn't really like it because I wasn't used to the taste of stevia. Now that I am used to it, this is my favorite sweetener for my coffee.
Pleasantly surprised!
Reviewer1534820님께서 Nov 18, 2010 에 작성하셨습니다.
I was nervous to order this product as I have never used flavored stevia before, but it is great! Not bitter at all and has wonderful vanilla flavor. I use it in coffee, baking, and add it to sparkling water with a splash of milk for sugar free cream soda. I also use it in my daily Apple Cider Vinegar "cocktails" to help the ACV go down. Quite tasty actually. Will be reordering soon.

Love this stuff
Umbridge님께서 Nov 16, 2010 에 작성하셨습니다.
As with the other NuNaturals stevia, this has no bitter aftertaste. I wouldn't mind a stronger vanilla flavour, but that's just being nit-picky!
Great Tasting
Reviewer2287491님께서 Nov 08, 2010 에 작성하셨습니다.
Best online price EVER! Fast shipping and true to word.
Reviewer1910014님께서 Oct 30, 2010 에 작성하셨습니다.
I love this stuff. As sweet ad you like or not you choose the drops. Better than the packets. It also has a true vanilla flavor. Great in coffee and tea.
Another great stevia extract from Nu Naturals
Reviewer3158324님께서 Oct 04, 2010 에 작성하셨습니다.
I have used Nu Naturals alcohol-free stevia for years, and have introduced a lot of my friends to it. It sweetens well with no after-taste which the powdered forms can often produce. This vanilla flavored extract is a nice alternative to "old faithful" and adds interest to coffee and teas.
Love nunaturals Stevia
Reviewer1631954님께서 Sep 29, 2010 에 작성하셨습니다.
This is the best tasting sweetener. We love it & use it for MANY things.
Reviewer3086214님께서 Sep 11, 2010 에 작성하셨습니다.
I never liked stevia until I tried this! No unpleasant aftertaste. I use it lots of different ways but most recently about 4 drops to give a delicious taste to plain (unsweetened) yogurt.

"The Estate Dinner design was perfect for the wedding rehearsal invitations. Customer service was very helpful in sizing and cropping the photo and provided expertize and guidance. The quality of the paper and envelopes were exceptional. I plan to use Wedding Paper Divas for other personalized invitations. When you find customer service along with quality products why look further "stay with the one you trust." Thank You Wedding Paper Divas."
"I found this site online and decided it was exactly what I wanted for my rehearsal dinner invitation. The process was quick and easy. Delivery was fast. When the invitations arrived they were perfect...just as pictured online."
"I loved these cards. The paper quality is sturdy yet soft, the color is bold and really pretty against the white (we ordered the gray), and the design is simple yet fun. The corner box with the information is easy to read yet doesn't dominate the card and make it too cluttered. To me, these invites have a nice, "classy" design that appeals to a lot of different styles. Even my fiance really liked them. Its a good traditional approach to a rehearsal dinner invite without being boring. Not too formal and not too casual either."
"Absolutely loved the cards when I got them in the mail. They are not a really thick paper, but a nice weight, they don't feel cheap. The purple color was a nice, muted plum."
"I placed an order for rehearsal dinner invitations on February 15, and I received them on February 18. That, in itself, qualifies for an 'excellent' rating. I must also acknowledge the delightful card. The picture and text are sharp, the colors are clear, and the overall effect is charming. Thank you for a fine product."

Rolls Royce Christmas Pudding
2 oz. all-purpose flour
3 eggs
1/4 tsp. salt
1 tsp. cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger
1 oz. almond flour
6 oz. brown sugar
6 oz. butter (small dice)
8 oz. bread crumbs
6 oz. golden raisins
6 oz. dark raisins
6 oz. currents
4 oz. whole dried cherries or brandy cherries
6 oz. dates (chopped)
2 oz. candied citrus peel (chopped)
4 Tbs. Brandy
1 orange zested and juiced
1 lemon zested and juiced
� carrot, finely grated
� apple, finely diced
� - � pint Guinness
Mix all dry ingredients together in a large bowl. Disperse spices and dried fruit over dry ingredient mix.
Add small pieces of butter, and toss together, not mixing. Add eggs and brandy (ok to substitute rum for brandy).
Add orange juice, lemon juice, grated carrot, diced apple and Guinness, and mix well. (Traditionally, all members of the household give the mixture a stir for good luck.)
Grease a 1 quart bowl with butter, generously.
Pour the mix in and cover the bowl with buttered parchment paper and foil.
Tie with string to seal the rim, and steam the mix for approximately 4 hours (at home, use a double boiler or vegetable steamer for best results).
Just prior to serving, steam again for 2 hours. Brandy is traditionally poured over the hot pudding, and flambeed tableside. Serve hot.

I saw this when it was originally shown in 1966, when I was 12, and the effect it had is still with me! To this day I can still see the child-ghosts as they try to save the young boy from his evil relative; the eventual discovery of their bodies, under the bath and in the garden, and the realisation that their hearts were torn out and burned in a brazier as the "kindly relative" attempted to live forever! And of course they had their revenge...guess whose heart was torn out by a pair of long-fingernailed ghosts...??
Amazing and wonderful stuff!moreless

Black Maps: American Landscape and the Apocalyptic Sublime
Steidl, 2013
Hardcover, 240 pages, $85
Black Maps, designed by Graphic Design faculty member Bob Aufuldish, is the first in-depth survey of the major aerial projects by alumnus David Maisel (MFA 2006), whose images of radically altered terrain have transformed the practice of contemporary landscape photography. In more than 100 photos that span Maisel's career, Black Maps presents a hallucinatory worldview encompassing both stark documentary and tragic metaphor, and exploring the relationship between nature and humanity today.
Maisel's images of environmentally impacted sites consider the aesthetics of open-pit mines, clear-cut forests, rampant urbanization and sprawl, and zones of water reclamation. These surreal and disquieting photos take us towards the margins of the unknown and as the Los Angeles Times has stated, "argue for an expanded definition of beauty, one that bypasses glamour to encompass the damaged, the transmuted, the decomposed."

I've seen 500lb/in and 600lb/in....what's the stiffest one you can get?
I've seen 500lb/in and 600lb/in....what's the stiffest one you can get?
I've seen a 650, but it's only money. I'm pretty sure I know at least one place that can custom wind a coil (titanium too maybe) as high as you would need. There's a theoretical and practical limit though. After a certain point, it won't matter as the rest of your components would fail before you bottom your shock.
thinking about getting a new rear shock for your hardtail?
Ive seen 750lb.
What up, Thoughyt you had a hardtail. Are you holding out on us? I have a 750 but I don't run it, it's super stiff.A lot depends on the type of susp. SP,4 bar, ect.
Like a circus monkey on a stolen Harley......
I'd like to get a full suspension bike at some point....and what I needed to know is how stiff they can get since I don't want alot of bob.
i have a 700 on my fsr, and a 500 on my stinky. you can order them to 1000+ lbs directly from the manufacturer, and im sure they could make you a custom one if you needed.
I have seen over 1000 on really bad ratio bikes. Ideally you want to find a low leverage ratio bike so you can use the lightest spring possible. Its going to be tough at your size though. On a bighit with a 3:1 ratio you need over 1000 pounds.
Why though PWRD? It would be another thing to worry about and your Hoss-Dee-Lux would probably be much stronger.Originally Posted by PWRDbyTRD
get a suspension with not much leverage on the shock so it can be stiff enough for you.
Rides: 06 Demo8 II, Yeti DJ
Pin it baby!
I like my hardtail..and it's fun, but athe time same time a hardtail still shakes me up pretty hard on trails and this summer I'd like to get into some more trail riding. I am just exploring options...who knows if I'll ever go to one. So a big hit runs a 3:1 ratio??
Depending on shcok position and travel selected yes.
so a 900lb shock for a 300lb person?
the ratio thing means that the shock's stroke length is only a third of the travel. So say a bike with nine inches of travel at the rear axel has a shock with a stroke length of 3 ionches, it has a compression ratio of 3:1. So that doesn't mean a 900lb spring for a 300lb rider.
In actual fact if a bike as described above had a 900lb spring, it means it takes 900lbs of weight to compress the springh, and hence shock 1 inch. So for the shock to bottom out, 2700lb's are needed. This would equate to 300lb's needed to move the rear axel 1 inch.
I used to use a 550lb spring on my bighit and if I wanted I could probably have gotten away with using a heavier spring, even though I am light 55kg I still needed areasonably heavy spring (for my weight) because I did big drops/jumps and I liked the feeling of a hard shock, espescially for racing.

I can't in good faith make a suggestion of a FS bike for you simply due to your current weight..
You're one of the few people who can say something and I would take it in the best possible way. I don't plan on buying the bike immediately...I was just curious as to how heavy you could be and actually ride one.Originally Posted by Raiyn
I run about 250 lbs, up from there when lazy. I have a 6.5" eye to eye on my Enduro SX and I run a 950 lb spring.
I had to order this directly from FOX, and had a hard time doing so. I ended up buying an 850 and a 950 since I finally talked to someone there that could help me. I think they had some old stock, so I lucked out. Don't know about the other manufacturers.

Lewie and Peggy Rogers of Johnson's Chapel community returned home Fri., Nov. 1, after attending Lewie's Navy reunion of the crews of destroyer U.S.S. Waldron 699 in New Orleans, La., Oct. 23-27. Most of the reunion events were at the Airport Holiday Inn. Peggy, their daughter, Pam Chaffin and husband Doug and daughter Evie also enjoyed some of the activities. They found the World War II Museum especially interesting. Evie's favorite was the Swamp tour. Lewie and two other WWII veterans were the only attendees from that time period. The U.S.S. Waldron was in the battles in the Pacific from 1941 in WWII through the Korean Conflict and the Vietnam War. The ship's nickname "The Bloody W" came from its involvement in the battle of Midway. It was taken out of service in 1973. (Lewie says he plans to attend next year's reunion in October in Tampa, Fla.) The finale for the event was the main program and banquet on Oct. 27 at Petra's Restaurant in La Place, La., near New Orleans. The Navy veterans enjoyed sharing their stories both humorous and sad. Many brought photo albums and scrapbooks so wives and families learned a lot of history from the event as well.

The Cast and Crew of "Dragons' Den" Reflect on the Show's Success
As I sit down to watch a live feed of the show's filming, a pair of young men make their way onto the show's stage. Their names are Jordan and Darien, and they're here to pitch the Dragons on their gold mining business. The two say that they've found an easy way to extract vein of gold on the Klondike River, south of Dawson City. The catch is that they need a $5 million investment to buy the land and to purchase the equipment needed to extract the gold. In exchange for the money, the cousins promise the Dragons a 20 per cent stake in their company. Read more.

Blue Card on My Mind
An article in Saturday's New York Times titled "Holocaust Survivors' Needs Become Acute With Age" (that's the title in my print newspaper; online, the headline reads, "As Holocaust Becomes More Distant, Survivors' Needs Intensify") seemed acutely well-timed to me, for a couple of reasons.
First, we're approaching Yom HaShoah, Holocaust Remembrance Day, which (according to the Hebrew calendar), will be observed next week. And second, I've recently sent in my Q1 donation, based on sales of Quiet Americans, to The Blue Card. I've spoken before about why I remain committed to sharing portions of sale proceeds with The Blue Card, but this is an appropriate time of year to give the organization another shoutout for the essential work that it does.

RINGING UP AN INTEREST: Iraq to launch major telecom IPO
Telecom listing to be Iraq's largest and first major IPO since a U.S. led invasion toppled Saddam Hussein in 2003. Hass investor confidence finally returned to Iraq after years of war, political instability and financial sanctions
January 6, 2013 8:06 by Reuters
Asiacell, in which Qatar Telecom owns 54 percent, will sell 67.503 billion shares at a price of at least 22 Iraqi dinars ($0.02) per share in the IPO, which starts on Jan. 3, the company said in a statement last week.
It is expected to be the first of three big telecommunications IPOs in Iraq; Asiacell and its two domestic rivals, Zain Iraq, a subsidiary of Kuwait's Zain , and France Telecom affiliate Korek must raise funds through IPOs as a condition of receiving their $1.25 billion operating licences from the government.
All three companies missed an earlier deadline of August 2011 to do so, arguing the stock market was not sufficiently prepared at the time, and have been fined for the delay.
The IPO requirement is a way for authorities to try to encourage private ownership in an economy still dominated by state-owned companies, and to spread more of the wealth created by Iraq's recovery around the population.
Taha Abdulsalam, chief executive of the Iraq Stock Exchange, told Reuters that the listing of Asiacell's shares on Feb. 3 would be a boon to the market by adding the telecommunications sector to investors' options.
Currently the market, where the main equity index fell about 8 percent in 2012, has about 85 listed firms with capitalisation heavily focused on the banking sector, though there are also stocks in industry, insurance, hotels and agriculture.
Abdulsalam predicted the market's trading volume, which was around $3 million per day this year, would rise about 10 percent because of the listing.
In the long term, telecommunications could be a great bet in Iraq; the International Monetary Fund predicts Iraq's economy will grow more than 10 percent this year and at least 9 percent annually over the next five years, aided by rising oil output. That should boost demand for higher-end data services.
Asicaell, which claims to have a 43 percent share of revenues in the mobile phone market and 9.9 million subscribers, posted net income of 474 billion dinars in the first nine months of last year, against 505 billion dinars in all of 2011, according to a company statement.
