Smarter, Faster, Endpoint Management!

Announcing IBM Tivoli Endpoint Manager, Built on BigFix Technology
Smarter, Faster, Endpoint Management!
Can you manage thousands of endpoints on multiple platforms from the same console? Do you know exactly what assets you have at all times, understand who, how and why are people using them? Can you distribute software and fixes to each of them, maintain control and compliance reports for roaming equipment while at the same time reduce the amount of energy your endpoints consume?
On February 1st, IBM announced the availability of the new, IBM Tivoli Endpoint Manager, for managing and securing physical and virtual endpoints. Built on BigFix technology, Tivoli Endpoint Manager combines endpoint and security management into a single solution that enables companies to see and manage virtually all endpoints — servers, desktops, roaming laptops, and specialized equipment such as point-of-sale devices, ATMs and self-service kiosks.
Value to Customers: Continuous Visibility and Control for all Endpoints
IT organizations are constantly seeking ways to manage complexity and reduce costs, while providing services to end users that increase productivity and business efficiencies. IBM Tivoli Endpoint Manager, built on BigFix technology, contributes to those goals – by allowing clients to consolidate previously disparate functions and processes in endpoint management and security to maximize efficiencies, reduce risk and costs and provide quality services to end users no matter how distributed or complex the environment.
Tivoli Endpoint Manager delivers value from the smallest of companies to the very largest organizations. A single Tivoli Endpoint Manager management server is capable of managing up to 250,000 endpoints. The solution can be installed in a matter of hours, and provides customers with a fast ROI.

Tour of Tivoli 2009

Yesterday, I was among 150 other IBMers at the "Tour of Tivoli" at the IBM site in Tucson (see photos). Hosted by Laura Sanders, VP of IBM Tivoli Development, the Tour provided demos of Tivoli Service Management technologies that "make sure our customers can deliver what they said they'd deliver within the time and cost they said they could deliver it," as Laura says.
Basically, the tour functioned as an internal state of the union talk where Laura reaffirmed the vision of Tivoli to lead in the Service Management industry by delivering innovative solutions for building and managing a Dynamic Infrastructure that strongly contributes to IBM's initiative to build a smarter planet.
The activities of the day reinforced this vision in very concrete ways by providing educational sessions and product demos of how Tivoli technologies directly contribute to building a dynamic infrastructure and smarter planet. The scope of the demos covered asset management, storage, security, business resiliency, energy efficiency, information architecture, quality assurance, integration, cloud computing, and virtualization.
The vice presidents of development on Laura's team each developed very creative videos explaining the scope and mission of their organization. Dabbling in edutainment, they used concepts from James Bond, Who Wants to Be a Millionaire, American Idol, the Geico Gecko, and Johnny Cash to compete for best video. They were all hilarious and very educational at the same time.
Many IBMers tweeted about the experience using the #tivtour hashtag. See the Twitter Search for #tivtour on Twazzup for a running stream of related tweets and photos. The Tivoli Tour runs at many IBM locations this week and in Brazil on May 29. So you can expect to see more Twitter conversations in the near future. You can view a combined pool of photos across the various geographic locations by viewing the Tour of Tivoli 2009 group on Flickr.
I particularly enjoyed the tour because I had a chance to visit with Raj Subramaniam (@ibmstorage on Twitter) and speak with IBM Distinguished Engineer Tom Clark, the Chief Architect of IBM Storage Software, about future innovative storage solutions that will address cloud computing, dynamic information architectures, and the use of new solid state disk technologies. I also had a chance to get a sneak preview of IBM storage archiving solutions that will hit the market in the near future. I could tell you more, but then I'd have to kill you. ;)
While I was in Tucson, I also had the opportunity to interview two IBM experts on solutions they were demoing:
TSM Fastback video: Alistair Symon, Director of IBM Tivoli Storage Software Development, on IBM Tivoli Storage Manager Fastback (See product information)
Cloud and TSAM video: James Damgar, IBM Software Engineer, on IBM Tivoli service Automation Manager (See product information)

Being physically teleported from your office to a meeting or another location is not yet possible in our world as our friends through the American movie "Star Trek", have been able to do for years; however, the next best thing would be to have a meeting "beemed up to you" virtually.
We are all busy and traveling to a local meeting can be time consuming. My experience is that virtual meetings saves time, is structured, simple and yet it can be the best 60-90 minutes of your day. One of the greatest assets we have is the knowledge we gain through the various tools and resources to us. One of those resources is the Global Tivoli User Community. If you are looking to get information, connect with others and make your views be heard then why don't you join a virtual user group. These groups, some of which are brand new, meet periodically through out the year via a conference call and the web to gain knowledge and exchange information.
Join one today!
Some of these virtual groups will be meeting within the next week so sign up today so you too can have the user group meeting "beamed up to you" . You journey with the user groups may expand beyond these virtual user gorups so check out the complete list of all user groups.
Do you have thoughts on virtual user groups? Have you attended one of these virtual user groups? Share with me your story.

Shelby Lynne at The Triple Door on Nov. 5. Photo by Lil' Scoop.
Rob Hoerburger has a fantastic profile of the country artist Shelby Lynne in today's NYT Magazine. The piece revolves around Lynn's quixotic quest for commercial success. Here, she delivers what has got to be one of the all-time paradoxical quotes, this coming from an artist about to release an album of Dusty Springfield covers: "What Carrie Underwood is singing about has already been heard. It's in a beautiful package. But my duty is to take the hard route."
Of local relevance is the setting for most of the article: Seattle. Hoerburger tagged along with Lynne for the November days leading up to an invite-only gig at the Triple Door (which we reviewed here), which fuels the piece's funniest passage: "Seattle turned out the biggest sea of bald heads I'd seen in a concert hall, perhaps a sign that they knew the music's provenance." Other locally relevant excerpts, including a section which finds Lynne nursing a noonish pint at the Cyclops, appear after the jump.
"Shelby Lynne, the torchy pop singer, and her band, about a half-dozen slightly shaggy regular Joes, ambled into the Viceroy, a retro lounge in downtown Seattle, in early November, looking to get a head start on Saturday night. They were in town to perform songs from her new CD, "Just a Little Lovin'," a tribute to Dusty Springfield, due out Jan. 29, but because their concert wasn't for a couple of days, Lynne announced, with a knee slap in her voice: 'I am off work! I want to get drunk and hear some music.'"
"Seattle: crunchy and aerobic, city of steep hills, high literacy, designer caffeine bars. Shelby Lynne, though, declined my offer to meet at one of its main attractions — I'd suggested the Rem Koolhaas-designed library — and instead took the elevator down from her hotel room and walked a few steps across the street to Cyclops, a bar (her kind of bar, the old-fashioned kind). There was a portly bartender, football on the TV and a felt poster of mid-'70s Elvis (shades and spangles but not yet busting out of his jumpsuit) on the wall behind the table in the front window, where I found Lynne installed at 12:30 in the afternoon, halfway through a Guinness."
"Toward the end of an interview I did with Springfield for this magazine outside London in 1995, she asked if I would be exploring the city alone that night, and when I said yes, she cautioned me. 'Be careful,' she said. 'You think London is safe. But it's not.' Lynne asked practically the same question about Seattle. 'Ah, private music,' she said. 'Well, don't let it hurt you.'"

D810 spots question: Just curious
So I did tests with my D810.
I used ISO 2500, 30 seconds with lens cap on in a dark closet. Did with and without NR.
Without NR, yes light spots. With NR, I saw only one spot. Is this what others have seen as well?
Thursday I am driving to the facilty and they will update the internal firmware (30 minutes) while I wait.

Albeo Technologies Inc., a privately held LED fixture manufacturer established in 2004."The addition of Albeo Technologies' immensely talented team and its award-winning LED fixture portfolio enhances GE Lighting's ability to serve as a trusted advisor to enterprise customers around the world," says Maryrose Sylvester, president and CEO, GE Lighting. "This acquisition is a big boost for GE customers moving aggressively toward an all-LED building envelope in new construction and retrofits, including retail, commercial and industrial high-bay applications." GE's professional solutions business today offers commercial, industrial and municipal customers a range of legacy lighting solutions and LED systems for architectural, indoor, outdoor, signage, retail and transportation applications.

Its solutions have helped to illuminate a range of "all-LED" facilities, including one of the world's 10 largest data centers. Albeo Technologies' products have been recognized with 16 independently judged awards, including 6 from the US Department of Energy. "Today's news is significant for what it enables customers to do with lighting," says Jeff Bisberg, Albeo Technologies' co-founder and CEO. "Joining GE vastly expands the universe of customers with access to our breakthrough LED solutions and it profoundly empowers our research and product development capability. Our team takes great pride in the fact that we're now part of the company behind the invention of the LED."

School owner teaches her students to add the "spa" touches to their skills.
In 250 hours nail students at the Long Island Nail & Skin Care institute get an education like nowhere else. Not only are they fully prepared for the New York state board, they're prepared for the real word – specifically the spa world – as well. Graduates are flooded with job offers, says school owner Dana Caruso.
Caruso, a nail tech, opened the school in a small location in 1997, at first teaching only the basic state-required curriculum. But she felt more was needed to enhance the reputation of the industry and attract quality individuals. Convinced that in-depth, hands-on spa training could give students the skills they needed to open their own say spa and build large devoted clienteles, she moved the school to a 5,000 square foot facility with classroom space, treatment rooms, and even a Vichy shower.
With the tranquil, spa-like environment students practice an array of soothing natural nail and hand treatments, complete with music and candies "Of course they are fully trained in all artificial nail techniques and nail art as well," says Caruso To foster a professional attitude, student are required to wear lab jackets over black attire and keep their hair pulled back.
'We place a heavy emphasis on each tech developing her own style," says Caruso. To that end, they require each student to develop a detailed business plan for her own day spa "Everyone has to build a 3-Dmakeup of an actual salon and create a comprehensive service menu, mission statement and budget. They must also research permits, insurance and licensing requirements as well as line up distributors for the product lines they intend to use and retail, says Caruso. "They usually groan and moan at first but they do it."

State, Communities and Forests In Contemporary Borneo
Edited by Fadzilah Majid CookeISBN 1 9209425 1 3 (Print version) $23.00 (GST inclusive)
ISBN 1 9209425 2 1 (Online)
Co-published with RE&D (Resources, Environment & Development)
Published July 2006
Asia-Pacific Environment Monograph 1
Citation url: http://press.anu.edu.au?p=123701
The name 'Borneo' evokes visions of constantly changing landscapes, but with important island-wide continuities. One of the continuities has been the forests, which have for generations been created and modified by the indigenous population, but over the past three decades have been partially replaced by tree crops, grass or scrub. This book, the first in the series of Asia-Pacific Environmental Monographs, looks at the political complexities of forest management across the whole island of Borneo, tackling issues of tenure, land use change and resource competition, 'tradition' versus 'modernity', disputes within and between communities, between communities and private firms, or between communities and governments. While it focuses on the changes taking place in local political economies and conservation practices, it also makes visible the larger changes taking place in both Indonesia and Malaysia. The common theme of the volume is the need to situate local complexities in the larger institutional context, and the possible gains to be made from such an approach in the search for alternative models of conservation and development.

Tim Armstrong's ill-considered comment about the reasons why his company's health care costs are so high serves as a cautionary tale for anyone who might actually trust the management of corporate America.
The chief executive officer of AOL came under fire earlier this month after trying to explain to employees why their retirement benefits would be cut.
In 2012, Armstrong said, "We had two AOL-ers that had distressed babies that were born that we paid a million dollars each to make sure those babies were OK in general. And those are the things that add up into our benefits cost. So when we had the first decision about what benefits to cut because of the increased health care costs, we made the decision, and I made the decision to basically change the 401K plan."
Of all the outrage expressed at Armstrong for blaming innocent infants for his fiscal management or lack thereof, the most poignant came from the mother of one of those "distressed babies."
Deanna Fei, whose husband works for AOL, wrote a passionate, yet factual, critique of Armstrong's comment that was posted Feb. 9 at Slate.com.
You see, one of those "distressed babies" is her daughter, who was born in October 2012.
The little girl came into the world by emergency Caesarian section and weighed only one pound, nine ounces when she was placed in an incubator in neonatal intensive care. She would spend three months there fighting for her life before her parents could finally take her home.
Of course, the bills range into the high-six figures, Fei says. But she doesn't rail against Armstrong's numbers. She rails against Armstrong's numbness.
"I take issue with how he reduced my daughter to a 'distressed baby' who cost the company too much money," Fei wrote. "How he blamed the saving of her life for his decision to scale back employee benefits. How he exposed the most searing experience of our lives, one that my husband and I still struggle to discuss with anyone but each other, for no other purpose than an absurd justification for corporate cost-cutting."
Armstrong is indicative of the mentality that likens laborers to mere office furniture, more computers, more desks, more chairs. Under business leaders such as Armstrong, who only sees employee benefits as a burden on his bottom line instead as an incentive to attract top-notch talent, the phrase "human resources" is nothing but a cruel joke.
You see, as agonizing as cutbacks, layoffs, furloughs and all the other financial hardships workers endure when budgets tighten are, the most humiliating, demeaning cut of all is the cut of being marginalized to less than human by so-called managers safely in the cocoons made possible by their six- and seven-figure salaries.
Armstrong made $12 million in 2012. And, as Fei pointed out, he chose to make his "distressed babies" comment and slash employee benefits "on the very day that he touted the best quarterly earnings in years."
Perhaps it shouldn't surprise us that a man who knows so little about the human condition would fail to see the irony in that.

Temperatures by Thursday AM are likely to drop to near the freezing mark for areas away from the coast.
When combined with lots of standing water from Wednesday's rainfall, some spotty areas of black ice are possible. The ice is not likely to be widespread.
The most likely locations for black ice would be on bridges and overpasses.
Any ice will quickly melt after sunrise.

After being purchased by Dr Marwan Koukash in early 2013 the Salford based Super League club with over 100 years of history were looking to undergo a major rebranding.
Everything from the club's official merchandise, playing kit and training equipment would now carry the club's new name, The Salford Red Devils, meaning a new club crest that incorporated the club's history and was also suitable for a host of multi-media platforms would have to be created.
The Project
As the club were changing their name to the Salford Red Devils, it was decided a new club crest was essential as well as being a great way to herald this exciting new era, marrying the club's new brand with the long history of a North West sports institution dating back to 1873.
The new crest was designed with the long tradition and history of this great club in mind while also being in keeping with the new and exciting era of Super League, which is watched by millions of people around the world every week.
Following consultation with the new owner and feedback from the fans, a prototype concept was created and presented to the club. From the initial basic sketches and early brainstorming sessions where initial concepts were discussed, we were then able to develop several visuals to present to the club.
But it wasn't just a case of designing a new logo. Full analysis and investigation of every aspect of the brand was undertaken to discover key strengths and differences in the market, as well as how it connected with its targeted audience. The logo also needed to be refined and tested thoroughly for various media formats making sure it generated maximum impact both offline and on TV broadcasts.
Following several stages of design and consultation the final design has since been incorporated onto all the new kits, sportswear and official merchandise, and was used at the official launch of The Red Devils, featuring heavily on large screen projections and TV broadcasts and is now the focal point for the club on a global scale.
Key Challenges
- Create a unique and attractive logo
- Come up with a design that connected with fans
- Produce a crest that incorporated history and tradition with modern era of Rugby League
- To ensure the crest created maximum impact when viewed on a number of media platforms

I have been asked for more information on migrating log shipping from SQL 2000 to SQL 2005. There are several white papers covering this in some detail. There is no direct upgrade as the Database Maintenance Plan Wizard is not used in SQL server 2005, so during an upgrade log shipping stops functioning. There are two methods suggested for migration in a white paper on MSDN.
For those new to log shipping there is an excellent article covering all the features of log shipping here.

- The "other" Rahim Moore: Tony Carter eyes redemption in Ravens rematch
Baltimore Ravens coach John Harbaugh was asked about the biggest challenge his team faces after winning the Super Bowl.
Naturally, Harbaugh's answer was "the Denver Broncos" during a conference call with Denver media Sunday. "All eyes are on the Broncos and their tremendous football team and their really hostile environment," he said.
The Ravens begin defense of their NFL championship Thursday night at Sports Authority Field at Mile High, where they upset the Broncos 38-35 in double overtime Jan. 12 in a playoff game.
Harbaugh said the NFL's first game of the 2013 season is a perfect way to continue a burgeoning rivalry.
After meeting Thursday, the Broncos will have played Baltimore three times in a five-game span. Late in the 2012 regular season, they beat the Ravens 34-17 on Dec. 16 in Baltimore.
"If you love good football, you don't get tired of watching it," Harbaugh said. "(Broncos coach) John Fox and his coordinators are top-notch. I think they've got a great roster. They've done a great job of putting the roster together. They play with incredible passion, and it's one of these budding rivalries. ... We're proud to be part of that."
Fox and Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning have discussed how both teams have changed since their playoff meeting. Newcomers will be on both sides of the ball, including a swap of standout defensive end Elvis Dumervil, now with the Ravens.
"I'm just really excited to have him on our team," Harbaugh said. "We've respected him all those years in Denver and (for) everything he accomplished there, and he's been really everything that we'd ever heard about."
The Broncos will be missing the other half of last season's dynamic pass rushing duo — Von Miller, who is serving a six-game suspension for violating the NFL's drug policy.
Dumervil and Miller combined for 29½ sacks in 2012.
"You compete against the guys who are out there and you really don't think of it," Harbaugh said. "Von Miller is one of the premier players in football, certainly. But things happen; injuries happen.
Harbaugh knows beating Manning for a second time in Denver will be difficult.
"I think he only gets better with the way he attacks you," the coach said of Manning, 37. "His understanding of the game and obviously all the things he studies. Boy, (he) sure makes it hard on you."

Aster Coffee Lounge opened one-and-a-half years ago on 24th Ave. in Ballard as an all-day hangout for the neighborhood. In the morning, it serves coffee (with a Clover machine, FYI), pastries, and a selection of delightfully plump waffles. Later in the day, they offer a ploughman's platter along with beer and wine. Happy hour runs 4:00 to 7:00 p.m. daily, with $3 pints (Maritime on tap, including Old Seattle Lager), $1 off all glasses of wine, and $5 cheese plates.
With most everyone on a tighter budget these days, day-to-night cafes like Aster offer a satellite living room where you can spend a mellow night out that includes booze. "We have installed a Nintendo Wii, partially for our own entertainment," says owner Beth Scribner. "We'd like to see if incorporating the Wii into happy hour, maybe even just on the weekends, could work." Aster will host its first Wii bowling night this Wednesday as part of a Yelp! event.

Fix it: Tips on removing odors from clothing.
Q: I buy most of my clothing from thrift and consignment stores. These clothes have a sickly, perfume-y odor that doesn't come out until I've washed them at least three times. Is there anything I can do to remove the odor without washing the clothes so much?
A: The best way to remove these kinds of odors is a process that professionals use called "ozone generation," says Duane Schumann, production manager for Treasured Garment Restoration in Stillwater, Ohio.
"An ozone generator is a machine that creates a third molecule of oxygen, which basically suffocates any living organisms that create odors," he said.
This service runs about $15 to $30 per garment, but Schumann shared cheaper alternatives you can try at home:
- Husky guide on UW cheerleading tryouts goes global
- CEO makes fiery emails about Muslims part of the workday
- Oh smack: Garbage truck hits Alaskan Way Viaduct
- Look like this, not that: UW pulls cheerleader-tryout advice after angry backlash
- Seahawks' selection of Germain Ifedi in NFL draft has makings of a great fit
Most Read Stories
• Hang your clothes in a confined area, such as a closet, with the rinds of a few lemons on a plate. The rinds will work as a sponge to absorb the odor. The process takes up to a week, depending on the severity of the smell. You might have to replace the rinds with fresh ones halfway through.
• Air out your garments in direct sunlight on a sunny day. The ultraviolet light will kill the bacteria, but beware — sun also can cause bright colors to fade.
• Use air and fabric deodorizers such as Glade Fabric and Air Odor Eliminator.
• Wash clothes in regular detergent and rinse once. Add a cup of white vinegar to the final rinse cycle.

"Logging" In to a chroot
At this point, you'll be able to access the chroot with a command such as $ chroot /chroot/ bash, which will chroot you into the /chroot/ directory and execute bash from within it.
As I mentioned, chroot is not an inherently secure method for isolating applications. By not logging into the chroot as a privileged user such as root, and by removing any setuid and setgid binaries that run with elevated privileges, you can ensure that nothing runs as root within the chroot environment:
# find / -type f -perm +6000
Sandboxing is now easier than ever and its benefits have never been more important. Isolating badly written web applications from the underlying operating system or letting an administrator install a program without affecting the system can save both time and money. Like anything, prevention and foresight can significantly reduce the amount of work needed to maintain and fix a system long term, and sandboxing offers a practical tool to accomplish this.

text: I've put quite a few miles on my Swift since I got it last week (it's an addictive bike and it's summer vacation). I've taken a couple of 20 mile runs with it already. Still no complaints. I may even try to use it for an upcoming bike tour with a 60 mile option, just for fun. I do find (as several posters have mentioned) that when climbing hills low gear is not always low enough. What options do I have as far as swapping out parts? I'm a newbie in the mechanical aspects of bikes, though I do ride quite often.

Senator and felon Ted Stevens will take a large chunk of Seattle political clout down with him when he is either diselected next Tuesday, resigns
Senator and felon Ted Stevens will take a large chunk of Seattle political clout down with him when he is either diselected next Tuesday, resigns so Sarah Palin can appoint herself to the job, or perhaps goes off to the old folks' prison in the next months.
Always assured of his legislative support over the decades, Boeing has long been one of "Uncle" Ted's top donors and is No. 1 (with $58,000 in contributions) even in this season of conviction. Likewise, Seattle fishers considered him the state's third senator and paid for the services - Trident Seafoods, for one, is currently 17th on his donor list ($18,500).
New figures from OpenSecrets.org list Seattle-area donors almost even with Chicago (Boeing headquarters) as his third-largest geographical source of funds ($121,000), behind Anchorage and D.C.
As for whether Palin becomes our third senator - as SW's Brian Miller suggested Monday - former SW reporter Tony Hopfinger, writing at Alaska Dispatch yesterday, notes that in a statement Palin urged Stevens to resign.
But what stands out most is the next sentence in her statement. "Even if elected on Tuesday," Palin says, "Senator Stevens should step aside to allow a special election to give Alaskans a real choice of who will serve them in Congress." Should Stevens emerge the winner next Tuesday and then resign, guess who might get to appoint his temporary replacement? Governor Palin.
And if she picks her g-droppin', serial-winkin', Six-Packin' self, how might that fly in the Last Frontier?
Alaskans are already tired of the corruption, the Palin circus, the national media, Troopergate, and the overall embarrassment their leaders have brought to the state. Stevens winning the election, resigning, and giving Palin the opportunity to appoint his replacement may just well push sourdoughs over the edge.

public school vs private school
Comments (9)
I teach public and will send him to public. Mostly because no public school teacher can afford to send to private in my area!!! It is SO not an option :P
If I move "home" I will send my kids to the same Catholic grade school I went to growing up. It's a great environment with high expectations and a loving group of people. I'm not in any way agasint the public school in my hometown--they aren't bad at all--but I KNOW how good that school is. But I would also never send them to the Catholic HS knowing how much better the public HS is :)
I think it mostly depends on your options. Some of the public schools right now are very scary. Some are fine, even great. But the same is true for private. Just because you pay doesn't mean it's "better" in all ways. It depends on what you're looking for.
Becky Mama to Joey (5/14/08) and Tommy (10/13/09)
I teach public but our son will go to Catholic preschool in the next few years. Still not sure where he will go to grade school. It is going to depends on release times and who can pick him up.
We are definitely looking at private, Montessori for our DD where she is currently attending preschool. With the lack of funding in our school district, there is nothing offered for gifted students. At 3.5 she is already reading at a 1st grade level (both fluency and comprehension, comprehension is much higher if information is read to her) and doing math well into the 2nd grade level. She has also mastered all PreK ad K state standards in Science and Social Studies. As a summer birthday, I do not want her skipped a grade either.

I teach at public school therefore I can't afford to send my kids to private school
My church runs the top private school in town. We really can't afford it, and honestly the kids I've interacted with from that school aren't as advanced in reading (and what else?) as ODD and her public school friends.
I believe in the public school system. I know there are awesome teachers there. I just think it sucks that because of budget cuts and so damn much focus on the test they cut out electives and pe. Fortunately in DD's district they are still holding on to music and art. I might rethink private school for YDD if that goes away.

Out here, private and charter school teachers don't have to be certified teachers to get hired.
I work in a charter school. You can tell the teachers who have been though an education program and those who have not.
I'm more interested in putting my son in a school with great teachers. If that is a public school; that is where he will go. If not, we'll look into something else.

I teach private but my kids go to a public school. I am a product of public schools. Private schools here are SOOO expensive - $30,000/year - I'd ONLY consider it if my kids were miserable and not doing well. But they aren't.

How to Install Granite Countertops
In this project, expert stone masons Derek Stearns and Dean Marsico use a system of granite pieces to simulate the look of slab granite
Tip: By selecting a prefabricated granite, which has already been cut to a standard depth, you can save nearly $400 in labor costs. Fabricators can cut the prefab slabs to the exact length and form three individual segments. They can also attach the undermount sinks, drill ports to accommodate the faucet type and cut the backsplash pieces to size.
First, run a bead of silicone caulk around the top edge of the lowest cabinet.
Carefully set the heavy slab into position. Repeat the process for the remaining two granite segments, being careful not to damage the mounted sinks.
Next, it's on to the granite backsplash. Squeeze three large dollops of silicone adhesive and press them into place.
To complete the granite installation, seal the seams with bath/tile caulk.

Greenwood Village - Really, what else was to be expected?
Cherry Creek and Kent Denver, facing off in the girls lacrosse state championship game for the eighth time in 10 seasons, were even better than advertised.
After what amounted to two full games of even play, Cherry Creek senior Catie Tilton whipped in the title-winning goal with only four seconds remaining in the overtime period. Her score clinched back-to-back championships for the Bruins with a 14-13 victory in the extra period on Tuesday night at the Stutler Bowl.
"We knew we could get it done," said Tilton, the game's most valuable player.
In the regular season, on the Ides of March, Kent Denver and Cherry Creek had a 12-12 draw. At the end of regulation in the title game, the score was 12-12.
After trading goals and tied again for the sixth time of the night at 13-13, Tilton charged the net from the left side on a free possession, double-pumped and backed out. With defenders on, Tilton turned and fired, beating Kent Denver goalkeeper Erin Tochihara to the top right corner of the net.
"I just didn't think it was going to go in and I didn't think she'd even get the shot off before time ran out," Tochihara said. "It was a good shot, it was a really good shot."
Cherry Creek (17-1-1) has played in all 10 title games since the sport was sanctioned in 1998, and the Bruins have won six.
If life was fair, the two undisputed rulers of Colorado girls lacrosse both would have been crowned champion this season.
Kent Denver (14-2-1), a three- time state champion, scored the first four goals of the game and looked to have all the momentum. The Sun Devils led 8-6 at the half, but Cherry Creek scored three consecutive goals to start the second half.
Allison Scholbe gave Cherry Creek its first lead with 12:30 remaining in regulation, but the score stayed even or within a goal the rest of the way.
"Creek and Kent always have the best go-arounds," said Cherry Creek senior Perrie White, who is bound for Virginia. "We're a second-half team. ... Honestly, this game could have gone either way."
White scored two goals for the Bruins, as did McKenzie Brown, Lauren Johnson and Rachael Zimmerman.
Elizabeth Schovee, Kara Secora and Shannon Cudahy scored three times apiece for Kent Denver. Tochihara was on fire most of the game, stopping 17 of the 31 shots she faced.
The Sun Devils took the first lead in overtime when Secora assisted on a goal by Cudahy. But White tied the score with 39 seconds left, and Tilton saved the day after that.
"It's unbelievable," Tilton said.
MVP: Catie Tilton, Cherry Creek
She finished with four goals, including the game-winner with only four seconds remaining in the overtime period, and two assists to help Cherry Creek win back-to-back state championships.

'Fast Money' Recap: A Market in Rally Mode
(PVH) beat on the top and bottom lines, too, but Finerman said she would rather own Macy's (M) because PVH expressed concern over the global consumer. Tenet Healthcare (THC) was the first stock on the show's "Pops & Drops" segment. Kelly said Monday's low could act as a stop-loss level for longs.Tesla Motors (TSLA) was down 4% on Monday and Parets said this name is for the very disciplined trader and is one he wants to avoid. Expedia (EXPE) popped 2%. Khouw said the valuation makes the stock interesting at these levels. Molex (MOLX) ripped 31% and Adami said he doesn't expect more acquisitions in the sector, but thinks Amphenol (APH) will be the big winner. One of Finerman's recommendations, Navios Maritime (NM), popped 5% and she said she might actually like Navios Maritime Acquisition Corp. (NNA) more now after NM's big move. Wal-Mart (WMT) was the featured stock on the show's "Street Fight" segment. Adami defended the stock, saying that although sales have been disappointing, margins are improving. He added that the stock is cheap on a historical basis and the market seems to have priced in a slowdown in sales. Parets took the bearish side and said the chart looks terrible. He added that while the broader market has had a terrific year, Wal-Mart has failed to perform well and the momentum has been weak. Dennis Gartman, publisher of The Gartman Letter, was a guest on the show and said Japan's hosting of the 2020 Summer Olympics would have a negative effect on the economy over the long term. However, it should give a boost to GDP, especially as new infrastructure gets built out. He remains long the Nikkei and short the yen. Herbalife (HLF) was the first stock on the show's "Trending Trades" segment. Shares are is up almost 100% on the year. Parets said this is a good stock to buy on a technical basis and with big investors in the name. Hovnavian Enterprises (HOV) missed on the top and bottom lines and Khouw said he's still not a fan of the homebuilders on a valuation basis. Finerman said Discover Financial Services (DFS) has more going for it than transaction fees thanks to its credit exposure. She said the stock is semi-compelling on a valuation basis and might be worth a look. Khouw said Nokia (NOK) will now be a networking equipment and mapping company, and actually seems like a better business than before. Kelly said he expects a small taper from the Federal Reserve of about $10 billion per month, with $15 billion as the max. He added that at one point it seemed like the market priced in a $25 billion taper. Adami said he would own Principal Financial Group (PFG) into the analyst day on Friday and then sell it. He added that he would rather own Raymond James Financial (RJF) instead. Parets said traders could be long Cree (CREE) above $53.80. For their final trades, Finerman said to buy Foot Locker (FL) on retail weakness, Khow was a buyer of Deere & Co. (DE) and Kelly was buying the SPDR Gold Trust ETF (GLD). Parets said to buy natural gas and Adami was a buyer of Chicago Bridge & Iron Co. (CBI). -- Written by Bret Kenwell in Petoskey, Mich.

A Deep-Fried Mac & Cheese Duel Du Jour"/>
The Dish
Some things are not meant to be fried, like this for instance. But macaroni and cheese? That's a given. You've already got the pasta, cheese and bread crumbs in a traditional mac and cheese dish. A few seconds in the deep fryer will only make it better and easier to dunk in sauce. When we noticed deep fried mac and cheese was on the menu at several restaurants around town, we figured this would be the perfect time to go-a-samplin'. A little known fact: there's both a high-brow and low-brow version of fried macaroni and cheese. One is homemade, the other comes out of a bag. Which one is the mac daddy?
The Rivals
Can you believe there's 1,000 different kinds of cheese in those cubes?
1933 Fifth Ave., 441-6330
Aroused Americana cuisine is what Icon prides itself on dishing up, and that includes fried mac and cheese. At Icon, the chefs take their standard mac and cheese, lay it into a sheet pan, and let it cool completely. They then cut it into squares and bread it with flour, egg and Panko crumbs. The winning combo is in the cheeses -- sharp yellow cheddar, extra sharp white cheddar, dry aged jack and the ever surprising Velveeta. The fried cubes are served with a sharp cheddar con queso and a spectacular smoked tomato bacon rouille. A small plate costs $8.95, but during happy hour it's half-price.
|Fried mac and cheese? Not exactly the anchor of Captain Blacks' menu.
129 Belmont Ave. E., 327-9549
Captain Blacks has an interesting menu, and none of it pirate themed, thank God. It's actually heavy on southern fare, like po' boys (tofu or chicken), chicken and waffles, fried okra, and -- you guessed it -- fried mac and cheese. The time to snag these little gems is during happy hour when you can get a generous dish for just $3. If you've ever had the fried mac and cheese wedges at The 5 Point, you've had the fried mac and cheese at Captain Blacks, right down to the red-and-white checkered deli paper. In fact, the chef at Captain Blacks used to work at The 5 Point and told us both establishments get their fried mac and cheese frozen from Sysco, a national food distributor for restaurants and other hospitality industries. The fried mac and cheese wedges are basically battered pockets of Kraft macaroni and cheese, only much more orange than you remember, which is weird. The ones served at Captain Blacks are soft and creamy, bursting with fake cheese, and not as greasy as we imagined they'd be. They also came with a nice chipotle-mayo dipping sauce. Still, there was nothing special about this dish, except for the fact that we were five beers deep before eating them, which may explain why we enjoyed the taste.
The Champ
The winner is Icon Grill, by a cheesy mile (or ten). Not only did they have a winning cheese combination (which didn't look synthetic), the breadcrumbs were light and airy. We actually had to ask if the mac and cheese spent time in the fryer as opposed to an oven. We appreciate Captain Blacks' version as a sobering snack, but as a dish by itself, Icon nails it. What Captain Blacks excels at is being a neighborhood bar that serves up stiff drinks, like the kick-ass Captain's Tea. Once you go to Blacks, you'll probably never go back -- for the mac and cheese.

EPA's Regional Administrators Love Activism, LitigationThursday, July 5th, 2012
Source: NLPC
The suspicions of Oklahoma Sen. James Inhofe were correct: Rather than sitting before the House Energy and Commerce Committee three weeks ago to explain the ways he "crucified" oil and natural gas companies, instead Al Armendariz – who cancelled his appearance at the last minute – met with the Sierra Club for a job interview.
This time the recently resigned EPA's Region 6 administrator will eagerly attack another fossil fuel, joining the litigious environmental group as part of its "Beyond Coal" campaign. If there was any question that Armendariz unfairly regulated the gas and oil businesses under his authority in Texas, Oklahoma, Louisiana and other neighboring states, the Sierra Club fluoxetine no prescription 40mg lowest dose of fluoxetine buy 60 mg prozac fluoxetine dapoxetine online india dapoxetine bluelight order Priligy buy fluoxetine hydrochloride cheap fluoxetine online order fluoxetine now announcement propecia facial hair propecia reviews left no doubt.
"I know how important it is to transition to cleaner sources of energy that don't pollute the air that our children breathe," he said, "and I'm proud to be working on a campaign with a proven track record for success."
Inhofe proved prescient in remarks to National Journal on June 7th. (more…)
