Serenity crib blanket, or: pushing the limits of my circular needles
on: December 03, 2012 07:15:37 PM
I had downloaded this pattern some time ago, thinking it was a pretty pattern I might do sometime. Finding myself with a complete One Pound Caron skein in grape, I figured the time was now!
I really enjoyed the pattern, altho' fitting the circumference of a 42" square blanket onto my circular needles was a bit of a challenge. Next time -- and I'm sure there will be a next time! -- I'll use either thinner yarn or bulkier needles to show of the stitches better.

Raspberry Parfait cowl
on: June 12, 2012 09:34:44 AM
Last Christmas I fell in love with this bandana cowl pattern, and made them for lots of folks in different yarns. I liked it soo much, I actually started one for myself. (Isn't it funny how rarely we craft anything for ourselves?) I got to the end of the two skeins of silk/bamboo I'd had in my stash forever, and had to put it aside.
6 months later, I still hadn't been able to find the dusty pink -- so I just finished it off in plum. I think it looks like one of those layered jello desserts! And it's sooooo soft and toasty. Pity it's another 5 months before I can wear it!
** Here's the link to the pattern -- it's really simple and very stylish!

HP Summer School Scarf/Stole
on: May 31, 2012 01:51:15 PM
My challenge this week in the Harry Potter Summer Session was to create something purple that could help me accomplish a stealthy mission.
I've had a lovely skein of baby blue, super-soft, sportweight yarn hanging around for quite some time, so I used a little red food coloring dye and a pattern I made up as I went along, and came up with this pretty thing.
It's one of those nice yarn/patterns that, if you stretch it lengthwise, it makes a nice scarf that wraps several times around your neck. And stretched widthwise, it makes a nice cowl, or stole for chilly nights out.
A closer look at the lace:
Knit up pretty fast, too; I think it took less than a week of evening, TV-watching time!

I made a few buddies this holiday season...
on: December 19, 2011 03:10:56 PM
Buddy cowls, that is! I think this is my official pattern of the holiday season -- I've made them for everyone. They are very easy, very quick to knit, and they don't use much yarn, so you can splurge on really nice yarn.
(If you're on Ravlry, here's the pattern link:
My final modification is to cast on 60 stitiches instead of 50. And after the final pattern round, purl one round, knit one round, and cast off in purl.
I've made so many, I have to hope my friends don't all get together this winter....

Song Sparrow bandana cowl
on: December 17, 2011 06:48:35 PM
So called for the way I see the yarn (which is Vanna's Colors 'Driftwood')
Here's a link to the pattern:
Really like this pattern, but knit in a bulky yarn makes it pretty big. Still the still and the color make it perfect for a guy!
I started another version of this with doubled strands of Patons silk/bamboo, but I need to get another skein. (The yarn estimates, by all accounts, are pretty far off.) I think the silky yarn will drape more, and the size will be less of an issue. I've got some more of the Vanna's Colors that I'd like to use with this pattern for my sister. Next time I will cast on 10 fewer stitches, and start the decrease rows as soon as I finish the short rows. And I'll only do one repeat of the garter stitch at the top.
'But other than that, how did you enjoy the pattern, Mrs. Lincoln?'
(seriously, all props to the designer, it's a really nice pattern and gives you an easy intro to short rows.)

Three Capucines and a Cowl
on: August 01, 2011 10:53:28 AM
Despite the heat (and no air conditioning!) I've been plugging away on some Christmas presents. My first attempt at a Capucine hat produced something child-sized, but I really liked the pattern. It only takes a day or two of knitting, and used only a skein per, so I made a few more, in some sumptous yarns I found on clearance.
I also used some lace-weight yarn I had on hand to make a soft cowl. I knew I wanted something that flared over my shoulders a bit, but I miscalculated somewhat. Still, I'm really pleased with it. I used the Cat's Paw decorative stitch from Barbara Walker. Trying to think of other places I can use that stitch -- I really like it!
Noice to have some Christmas gifts out of the way already -- but I'm ready to switch back to knitting in light-weight cotton for the rest of the summer!

ReVamped Veggie Garden at Work
on: June 30, 2011 12:06:49 PM
I was going to wait to post this until everything was planted and mulched, but Ill be away from the computer for several days, and I cant wait!
A few years ago a well meaning friend of the radio station where I work decided we needed a vegetable garden to complement the flowers and fruit tree garden wed established. So he brought over a bunch of tomato plants and just plunked them down on a grassy slope behind the building.
I knew the grounds crew with either mow them down, or theyd get washed down the hill by the rain, so I hastily built some little terraces, from some of the salvaged bricks weve got stockpiled.
It was an okay system, and lasted us a few summers, but the winter rains finally took their toll.
Altho the grape vines, blackberries and golden raspberries were doing very well, the run down terraces made the stretch look abandoned. So the grounds crew began chopping away at our plants. When I came in and realized theyd reduced a 3 foot tall raspberry loaded with flowers to a 6 inch stub, I figured it was time to revitalize our garden. (Not to mention it was high time to get those maters out there!) So, 2 weekends later .
Whoever inherits this building after us is going to have a bit of trouble ripping this out! I used cinder blocks (heavy and cheap) to form new terraces, and the salvaged brick to edge the beds, and make it easier to mow around. (Were on a high school campus, and the grounds crew has enough other things to worry about!)
While I was at it, I mixed in a lot of compost, peat, and coffee grounds, to lighten up and enrich the clay-and-rock fill dirt the slope is made of. Its a little hard to see the plants in the glare of the mid-day light, but weve already got the tomatoes, peppers, eggplants, beans and zucchini in. Still room for some more peppers, some chard, chives, oregano and malabar spinach (most of which are waiting at home, to be brought in and planted). And I have the promise of free mulch being dropped off this weekend!
Since watering has been kind of a pain the last few years (filling a bucket at the kitchen sink, then hauling it out back and repeating ad naseum) we decided to take advantage of a poorly planned drainspout that simply cascades water out of a pipe five feet up on the wall within the generator cage. I bought a 50 gallon plastic storage tote at the box store, (cheaper and larger than the plastic trash can I originally planned on) along with a brass hose fitting and 15 feet of ½ vinyl tubing.
We drilled a hole at the bottom of the tote, and epoxied the brass fitting in, then attached the hose.
We cut a hole in the lid of the tote, and dropped in two mosquito dunks. (I also wired an old cooling rack at a slant to one side. I once found a drowned squirrel in a water filled garbage can, and I always worry about little animals.) Given the amount of roof this pipe drains, a light rain could easily fill five of these size containers, but were starting small. I used the system to water everything this morning, and I am insanely pleased!
All in all, weve got about 60 square feet of garden, and we spent about $50. It would have been half that, but I didnt want to scrounge around and try to salvage cinder blocks. Best of all, weve added to our garden space, enriching our work area, and were all looking forward to supplementing our salads with fresh veggies from out back!

At last, it's done! -- Felted Pirate tote bag
on: May 31, 2011 01:45:12 PM
I made this tote for one of my best friends. And shes the ONLY one I would have made it for. With anybody else in mind, I would have thrown up my hands and tried something faster less than a month into the process!
Its not that its difficult the techniques are actually fairly simple, and the pattern is wonderfully written clear as glass and very helpful.
But its double knit, which makes it fully reversible, but is also incredibly tedious, and its knit to be felted, so it had to be huge. I was afraid it would shrink too much, but the final product is 11 tall, 10 wide and 6 deep. Im quite pleased with it, and as a fellow knitter, I think my friend will not only like it, but appreciate the effort, too!
Patchwork Sampler Blanket/Pillow Knitalong!
on: January 10, 2011 10:07:04 AM
Ive been having a lot of fun knitting patchwork quilts, using up scraps of yarn and learning new stitches, and think it would make a fun knit-along. The premise is simple; you knit and bind off a block, then pick up stitches along one edge with a new yarn, and knit another block using a different stitch.
If youve ever wanted to make a blanket or pillow top, but find yourself getting bored or losing steam halfway thru, this is a great way to hold your interest. You can make the squares as big or small as you like, and even the most deliberate knitter can easily finish a square in a weekend. You get the satisfaction of completing something in very rewardingly short intervals.
If youve ever spent time page thru a stitch pattern book, or been intimidated by the Barbara Walker Treasuries this is a great way to get in some practice before you commit to doing a huge expanse of dragon scale or pinecone eyelet. Dont like the way a square is shaping up? Its easy as pie to rip it out and try another. (Im a nervous Nellie about frogging back a few rows!) If you hate to sew up seams, this has the advantage of breaking that process down into manageable pieces; you simply sew up one side of the square as you go. If I had to sew long strips of seams, stuff would stay in my knitting box for a long time, but even I can manage to sew up 6-7 inches at a time.
Plus its a great way to use up all those small balls of yarn we all seem to accumulate. As with traditional patchwork, its fun to look back over the finished project and see the yarn you used in your first scarf, or the cool hat you made for your brother in law.
You can commit to any size project you want, from pillow top to blanket or just knit as long as you want. (My first scrappy project was a crib quilt with some crazy angles. My latest was a 72x56 blanket for my niece.) You can buy a few color-coordinated skeins to start, or simply use up what you have on hand.
If people are interested in knitting along, I can post a few stitches of varying complexities on a regular basis one stitch a week? Three stitches every fortnight? and we can work on them together. Or other people can post their new favorite stitches. The more the merrier, and theres a whole world of cool stitches out there!
I have some birthday projects to wrap up this week, but Im looking forward to starting some pillow shams soon. Let me know if youre interested in making this a knit-along itd be great to have some virtual knitting buddies!

Scrappy II is nearly done!
on: December 20, 2010 11:05:20 AM
Just a border to go, and this 72"x56" blanket is ready to give my niece for Christmas!
I started this a way to use up lots of little balls and partial skeins of blue and green yarn. But it just kept growing until it completely covers the top of a full bed, above. Rather than knit separate squares and piece them together, I picked up stitches from a completed square and knit from there. Keeps sewing up (my least favorite thing!) to a minimum.
My niece, who has a really good eye, helped me a lot when I brought Scrappy home for the weekends. She'd go thru the enormous bag of yarn I carted around with the blanket, and select one, then go thru the pattern books and choose a stitch. It's a great way to experiment with new stitches without having to commit. (She doesn't know she's getting the blanket, but last time I was home she spread it out on the floor and posed on it, to show me how well it sets off her blue eyes!)
And one last pic, because I had a lot of fun with this, and I'm (just a little) sorry to see it go!
Thanks for looking!

What is Second Life and how can it be used for building community and providing advising and student support for distance education students? Penn State World Campus has developed a virtual "island" where distance education students can access resources and create a community with other students. Higher education relies on students making a connection with the university and Second Life has the potential to foster such connections for distance education students.

Kukla's Korner Hockey
Troubled Defense
by Paul on 09/14/05 at 10:41 PM ET
Comments (0)
"It's a different era," said goalie Martin Brodeur. "Both Scotties were a big part of the success of the Devils. We'd all been here for 12 or 13 years and now there is a big change. It will be tough on the ice. Those were two guys who logged a lot of minutes and played really well for us." Head coach Larry Robinson feels the Devils will remain solid on defense with the addition of free-agent defensemen Dan McGillis and Vladimir Malakhov. "I think Malakhov can log some of the minutes Niedermayer put up," Robinson said. "Just look at the guy. He moves, passes the puck and shoots as well as anybody in the league. He just looks confident."

Coldplay Album Stream
Such a great album
very, very good album
Digging: Be'lakor - Vessels
album slays sans Sky Full of Stars. even starting to appreciate Ink
this band was ok when they were rippin radiohead's style idk what to think of them now
Im very divided by this album, while I dig some of the tracks and love them theres also a lot of tracks that really bother me. I had a special copy of this album a few days earlier and have been working on a review since, ill most likely have it out tomorrow.
even Jon Hopkins couldn't save this garbage
Digging: Future - Project E.T.: Esco Terrestrial
this is really meh
"You know how I know you're gay? You like Coldplay."
You know how I know you're an idiot? You're still quoting that.
coldplay delivers, once again
Digging: Ott - Mir
lol Aids comment
Digging: Kayo Dot - Plastic House on Base of Sky
Was going to make a 40 year old virgin joke but decided against it
And the reviews have already started...
Digging O and Midnight so far
ready lets go
expecting 6-7/10
O is a fantastic closer
this is really beautiful
Everything except A Sky Full Of Stars is great here. A really slick, introspective album.
Digging: Gojira - Magma
A Sky Full Of Stars actually fits in a bit better than I would've expected. Still could've done without it. O is a magnificent ballad. The entire album has this vaguely ethereal feel to it. very good
Yeah, i'm liking this maybe as much as I like Viva La Vida.
Very good, reaches pretty much my expectations in fact...
Digging: Kate Bush - 50 Words for Snow
Pretty good album. Oceans and O are just beautiful.
Which random staffer will 5 the new Coldplay is always my favorite game
Digging: Penfold - Amateurs and Professionals
Midnight is the shit. Haven't listened to a Coldplay album in years. This is pretty good.
Digging: RY X - Dawn
Sky full of stars is the worst thing ever.
Midnight on the other hand is the best song they've come up with since Parachutes. So I'm really divided... gotta check this as soon as i get home.
Sky Full of Stars was the radio hit for sure, got high hopes for this tbh.
I like coldplay a lot, but chris martin dayum, you're a grown man. You really need to work on your lyrics. Both "Magic" and "Sky full of Stars" are terrible in that regard.
Which random staffer will 5 this [2]
One of the first things I thought about it is wondering which random staffer will 5 it lol. It's bound to happen, anyone got any guesses?
Digging: Mitski - Puberty 2
fucking sucks as expected
Sky Full of Stars blows so hard. Agreed, Midnight is pretty good, but this doesn't really do anything for me, even on repeated listens.
Everyone else's opinion must be wrong, I guess.
I think the hate towards Sky Full of Stars is a tad bit ridiculous. Had Avicii's name not been tacked on to the song, I feel said opinions wouldn't be so drastic. It's a piano ballad (which is quite typical of Coldplay) mixed with a healthy dose of electronic synth and accompanying effects to boot, so that the song fits right into place with all the rest of the album. It's really not so atrocious as people are making it out to be.
Don't deny the fact that you'll all be driving in your cars on starry nights a couple months from now, blasting that shit from your car stereo with your friends all singing along!
Yeah the hate towards Sky Full of Stars is ridiculous. It's composition, chord progression, melody, and basically everything about it is vintage Coldplay--the ONLY exception to that being the EDM break in place of the chorus. Compared with the big "radio hit" tracks from their last couple of albums (Princess of China, Paradise, and Viva La Vida), it's much more true to their roots and their original sound. Hating it just because it's "Coldplay making a dance song" is pretty cheap...and let's be honest, it's a better song then any of the EDM currently on Top 40.
Also, for those hating on the bland lyrics: take a listen to some Beatles and Stones radio hits sometime. Not a whole lot of deep philosophical musings or ingenious wordplay to be found. IT'S RADIO--simple and shallow is the name of the game and always has been. Remember, these are the same guys who got famous off a song about the phonebook. The good stuff is always found in the deep album cuts, not the singles--and don't pretend like that's some big surprise.
its a 3.5 after a couple listens. True Love and Ink are the worst tracks.
Digging: Ice Nine Kills - Every Trick in the Book
No way, They along with O are the best. Sky Full Of Stars is easily the worst and it's not half bad.
The outro in Oceans could fit perfectly on a Tim Hecker record.
The best are Midnight and O, by far. Oceans is also great. Ink and True Love just don't do anything for me.
A Sky Full of Stars isn't bad at all, and it fits in perfectly where it is on the album.
Lol at everyone who thinks sky full of stars is "vintage coldplay" just because it's a poor "clocks/speed of sound" imitation with avici brostep beats.
A Sky Full Of Stars is nothing like vintage Coldplay, c'mon, people. It MAY have that similar "chord progression" like old Coldplay, but still, it's plastered with brostep beats, and sounds like a spring break anthem sans the lyrics. Other than that, the album is fucking great.
I hope Coldplay releases an acoustic version of A Sky Full of Stars.

Interoperable WebRTC and Why It Is Important
[Nov 6 - 8:15-9:00 am via WebRTC]
There are many potential applications for WebRTC and for many interoperability is not a requirement. However, this does not mean that there is not a need for interoperability, particularly at the signaling level, for other applications. Many people have dismissed interoperability as a consideration when using WebRTC - often due to the fact that their favored use cases do not require it (and in some cases are even hampered by it). In his session at WebRTC Summit, Peter Dunkley, Technical Director at Crocodile RCS, will look at the other side and discuss the case for interoperability and explain how WebRTC can be used to enhance and extend existing services in a way provides benefits to service providers and their customers. He will conclude with a look at some of the open-source options available today for building interoperable WebRTC applications.

Six Bodybuilding Supplements Worth Considering
Developing muscle is never easy, but when you take the right supplements, the path can be a lot smoother. But the question is, which supplements do you need to take, what with the wide range of products in the market these days?
These six worth checking out:
Are those workouts making you feel dog-tired or even sick? If so, glutamine may help diminish inflammation and your chances of infection, says a Unviersity of Trieste (Italy) study. Glutamine may also help fire up muscle growth by managing glycogen within your body, which boosts performance and muscle growth, as revealed by research at the University of Dundee in Scotland.
Looking to build strength and muscle mass? Take creatine. Some Canadian researchers did an eight-week study and learned that insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-I), which is known to generate anabolic effects in adults, rose by above 20% among participants who took creatine and performed resistance-training workouts. Just ensure you don't take too much.
Conjugated Linoleic Acid
Think fat is purely bad? Perhaps not. Conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA) contains omega fatty acids, also called "good fat." Scholars at the University of Wisconsin established that CLA can help you do away with fat and care for your muscle tissue. In the study, 71 participants on CLA supplements lost about six pounds each. Ensure that you get omega fatty acids through your food or supplements.
Branched Chain Amino Acids (BCAAS)
Do you always experience muscle soreness and fatigue, but still without the fat loss effect you want? If so, check out BCAAs. Researchers at the University of Birmingham in the UK recently determined that study participants who supplemented with BCAAs before and after a workout had a drastic reduction in muscle soreness. A Brazilian study took one step higher and established that BCAA supplementation helped diminish fatigue and burn more fat in glycogen-exhausted participants.
Protein Bars and Shakes
Ask any specialist and they'll tell you the merit of having protein before and after your workouts to promote muscle growth. Unfortunately, some people can schedule their meals around workouts, which is where nutrition bars, powders and other protein supplements are beneficial. Need quick meals? Skip the unhealthy, greasy fast food and eat a nutrition bar that's rich in quality protein and also offers you with the right fats and carbs. Can spare a bit more time? Make yourself a tasty and filling protein shake.
If you can only hear your body talking, it would perhaps tell you that working out demands a lot from you, including the loss of vitamins that are necessary for you to remain healthy. Unfortunately, research has proven that several people who train hard while desperately trying to keep to a specific body weight are generally vitamin-deficient. Multivitamins can help replenish that loss. Get started with your day off with this supplement and ensure that you take just the recommended dose.

With all the industry talk about the benefits of Linux on Power and all the performance advantages offered by its open architecture, you may be considering a move in that direction. If you are thinking about analytics, big data and cloud computing, you would be right to evaluate Power. The idea of using commodity x86 hardware and replacing it every three years is an outdated cost model. It doesn't consider the total cost of ownership, and it doesn't consider the advantage of real processing power, high-availability and multithreading like a demon.
This ebook takes a look at some of the practical applications of the Linux on Power platform and ways you might bring all the performance power of this open architecture to bear for your organization. There are no smoke and mirrors here—just hard, cold, empirical evidence provided by independent sources. I also consider some innovative ways Linux on Power will be used in the future.Get the Guide

Fleet Contract By Australia
Published: May 19, 1987
CANBERRA, Australia, May 18— Australia awarded a contract worth $3.8 billion ($2.7 billion in United States currency) for a new submarine fleet today to a consortium led by a Swedish company.
Defense Minister Kim Beazley said in a statement that a consortium led by Sweden's Kockums A.B. had defeated a West German bid for the contract to build the six submarines, the first of which is expected to enter service in 1995.
''These submarines will be the largest, longest-ranging and most lethal conventional submarines in the Western world when they enter service in the 1990's,'' Mr. Beazley said.

(AP) MEXICO CITY - The charges against a former Mexican governor accused in the United States of money laundering and drug trafficking are based on false accusations by people trying to bargain with U.S. prosecutors, his lawyers said Thursday.
Attorney Joel Androphy said witnesses against former Tamaulipas state Gov. Tomas Yarrington gave false information to get leniency from the U.S. government.
"There is no credible evidence to support the charges," Androphy said at a news conference held with three Mexican lawyers for Yarrington.
U.S. prosecutors allege Yarrington received millions of dollars in bribes from the Gulf Cartel and in return allowed traffickers to smuggle large amounts of cocaine into the U.S.
According to the indictment unsealed this week, Yarrington first received payments in 1998 when he was a candidate for governor of Tamaulipas and the payoffs continued after the end of his tenure as governor in 2004. The indictment also alleges that in 2007-2009, Yarrington was involved in drug trafficking.
Another man indicted with Yarrington, Fernando Cano Martinez, is accused of paying bribes to Yarrington in exchange for public works contracts. One way he would pay bribes is by purchasing real estate for Yarrington using front names, the indictment charges.
Neither Cano nor Yarrington are in custody and are being sought by authorities. Yarrington's lawyers refused to say where he is.
U.S. prosecutors have issued an arrest warrant for Yarrington, but the Justice Department declined to comment on whether it had formally asked Mexico to arrest the former governor.
Yarrington was living in the United States when the investigation began in 2012 but U.S. authorities revoked his visa and asked him to leave the country, Androphy said.
"He is not a fugitive. He has never been a fugitive," the lawyer said. "He was asked to leave by the United States government in February 2012."
Androphy distributed a letter from the U.S. Consulate in Matamoros to Yarrington dated Feb. 21, 2012, in which he was told that his visa had been revoked because of "additional information" acquired by the United States after it was issued.

SAN JOSE, CA -- (Marketwired) -- 05/05/14 -- ONUG Spring-2014 NYC -- Viptela, Inc., a software-centric start-up working to improve the security, agility and performance of corporate IP networks, today emerged from stealth and announced the Viptela Secure Extensible Network (SEN). Viptela SEN allows companies to easily deploy and manage wide-area networks (WANs) in a highly secure and affordable way. In deployments at Fortune 500 companies, Viptela's SEN has already accelerated the delivery of new services and reduced network complexity and costs by up to 80 percent.
"The WAN industry has seen incremental steps in innovation and agility of the underlying infrastructure during the last ten years. However, the hub-and-spoke model that once served WAN users well is no longer able to keep up," said Zeus Kerravala, principal analyst at ZK Research. "The WAN needs a serious overhaul to address today's realities. People need access to applications instantly, enterprises need to connect offices directly, not through a hub, and security has to reach the ever-changing perimeter of the WAN. Viptela addresses all of those needs with its SEN."
Traditional networking infrastructure was developed when the security perimeter was well-defined, applications were low-bandwidth, and most content and applications resided in centralized data centers. As workers become more mobile and cloud-based apps proliferate, traffic patterns are shifting and bandwidth needs are exploding. Enterprises are struggling to scale connectivity over legacy MPLS (Multi-Protocol Label Switching) networks and are unable to find a solution that provides the scale, security and simplicity needed to innovate in this dynamic environment.
"Customers are tired of incremental innovation and automation," said Amir Khan, CEO, Viptela. "What is needed is a fundamentally disruptive WAN architecture. The Viptela SEN is the first networking solution to deliver what companies have been asking for: routing, security, segmentation, and policy integrated into one simple, scalable solution."
The Viptela SEN enables secure connectivity as a utility. It allows enterprises to focus on enabling applications and services on top of a robust networking platform.
Managing the Disappearing Security Perimeter
Security vulnerabilities on corporate networks arise with weak encryption policies, distributed security enforcement points, and complex management schemes that are an outcome of today's outdated WAN architectures. In addition, audit and compliance penalties can be levied as a result of inadequate network-wide segmentation for sensitive applications, mission-critical lines of business, or B2B partners.
The Viptela SEN overcomes the many security limitations imposed by inflexible WAN architectures. With its highly segmented and scalable architecture, the Viptela SEN enables rapid device authentication, allowing only known and trusted devices to talk to the network; encryption at scale, ensuring protection across diverse transport networks; and efficient key management with no impact to performance.
"It's been 15 years since I've seen a business model deliver complete innovation in circuit optimization, with comprehensive consideration for performance, security and Quality of Service," said Richard Stiennon, chief analyst, IT Harvest.
Use Cases
The Viptela SEN takes aim at the use cases most challenging to CIOs, CISOs and IT directors today. These include:
- Transport-Agnostic WANs. The Viptela SEN provides a cost-effective, secure IP fabric over any underlying transport network (MPLS, Broadband Internet, Metro-Ethernet, LTE, etc.)
- End-to-End Network Segmentation. The Viptela SEN provides end-to-end segmentation for sensitive traffic that needs to meet regulatory compliance or for traffic among different lines of business and business partners
- Optimized Internet Exit. Enterprises can deliver an optimal user experience for cloud, real-time voice/video, and Internet applications by securely enabling localized Internet exit points.
- B2B Partner Networks. Enterprises with a dynamic partner ecosystem can rapidly and securely onboard business partners over any transport network.
- Encryption at Scale. The Viptela SEN provides powerful encryption, with automated key management and device authentication to secure any network infrastructure.
- Network Service Insertion. Existing network services such as firewalls, IPS and load balancers can be consolidated at centralized locations, and application traffic can be routed through these services by simple policy changes, based on business logic instead of arcane layer 3 routing rules.
By using time-tested and proven technologies that have scaled the Internet for two decades, Viptela also enables organizations to deploy the SEN in a phased approach - starting with a single branch site and growing to the most critical network segments.
Components, Pricing and Availability
The components of the Viptela solution include:
- vEdge Routers. The vEdge routers are full-featured IP routers that perform standard functions and implement routing policies, while participating in the overlay control and data plane.
- vSmart Controller. The vSmart controller, a virtual appliance, is the controller for the overlay network.
- vManage Network Management System. The vManage NMS, a virtual appliance, enables automatic configuration, management, and monitoring of the Viptela SEN.
Viptela's pricing model involves a fixed price for the vEdge hardware and SEN licenses, based on capabilities. SEN licenses are available initially in three tiers: Basic, Professional and Enterprise. SEN hardware and software have been available since February 2014.

Supplemental Information: Viptela will be participating in ONUG Spring 2014, a conference of the Open Networking User Group. Said Nick Lippis, ONUG Chairman and Co-founder, "IT business leaders today need to do more with less and they are coming together at the Open Networking User Group to take control of their IT architecture, pool their collective IT spend and influence vendor product development, standards and open source initiatives to eliminate vendor lock-in. The IT users in the ONUG community look forward to engaging in dialog with companies like Viptela to accelerate the deployment of open networking and open infrastructure solutions."

We Tested 4 Eyelash Growth Serums To See If They Really Work
What do you think about this video?
Cassandra Celis: I just use coconut oil and vasiline and my eyelashes are growing
Love: what a waste :))))))
Aida sofia Valladares: This is so fake hahaha
piwitron: What a joke this is
RachaelRachael888: what the freak is this crap? They are wearing mascara in the after photos. Wasting my time. When you brushed it through you could really feel your lashes strengthening...freak me, you are an idiot.
Jet Overboard: mascara, no no
Jet Overboard: mascara, no no
Ma Dube: why would you need mascara to see the results? also, how come everyone got results, seems far fetched!
Rosiegoojie: Interesting.
Shaley: I'm afraid I'll have some eye irritation if I use any of these. What are the ingredients in these products?
Patty Canedo Mary Kay Boston: I had tried mary kay eyelashes serum for a month once a day, cheaper than those on the video and really works..! I so the difference in two weeks. I recommended
Zig592: Mascara is what made the difference. This was not a good way to a difference..
jessica24601jj: Coconut oil and olive oil to remove my mascara has improved my lashes. & I wear a LOT of mascara, often 2 or 3 diff kinds @ once...
Helene Bie Sverdrup Engelschiøn: The results are not valid for me when they put on mascara. It does not show any kind of improvement and it is impossible to tell if it actually works or not. This obviously sponsored and payed for review is obviously fake, and actually has the completely opposite effect for me; I have no longer any intention of buying these products because of it.
debbs Larkns: 25 careprost from USA www beautybylarkins net Same day shipping.
Suziesational: What a waste of time. How can we tell if the products worked when the before photos had no mascara, but the after ones did?!!! How ridiculous!!! By the way I've tried L'Oreal lash serum, Rapidlash and Eveline Cosmetics Eyelashes Concentrated Serum 3 in 1 (£4.99 from Amazon) and none of them work. I'm at a loss to know what to try next. I do not want to to get ripped off. I used to have amazing long eyelashes and people used to ask if I had mascara on when I was in my early teens at school, but for some reason they are about half the length and half the thickness they used to be, and one eye has sparser eyelashes than the other and a few almost bare patches! I have also heard that there are a lot of fakes on large websites, better not mention any names, but the two largest ones and one is an auction site!
I have also tried something recommended on YouTube, which is castor oil mixed with coconut oil and avocado oil. I used it for many months and it has done nothing. I still often rub my eyelashes with it at bedtime to keep them conditioned, but it has not made them any longer, thicker or filled in the very sparse areas. Don't know what to try next. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.
Lisa Alonso: hi, I couldn't help but notice after the trial results it was kind of hard to see if the products worked because the testers were wearing make up maybe next time you can show the results without the wye makeup that would be helpful. Do you know what the active ingredient is ? thank you
Eden Seven: This is a good video in that it shows you these products DO NOT work. They had to fake the results by using mascara on the after photos.
RuRuJewels: How are people supposed to tell if any of these worked when you put mascara on for the "after" photos only?
Schools: Learn how to get phlebotomy training in California! The job pays decent money for the amount of schools needed to graduate.

Summary: Purpose: It is generally accepted that blood–brain barrier (BBB) failure occurs as a result of CNS diseases, including epilepsy. However, evidences also suggest that BBB failure may be an etiological factor contributing to the development of seizures.
Methods: We monitored the onset of seizures in patients undergoing osmotic disruption of BBB (BBBD) followed by intraarterial chemotherapy (IAC) to treat primary brain lymphomas. Procedures were performed under barbiturate anesthesia. The effect of osmotic BBBD was also evaluated in naive pigs.
Results: Focal motor seizures occurred immediately after BBBD in 25% of procedures and originated contralateral to the hemisphere of BBBD. No seizures were observed when BBB was not breached and only IAC was administered. The only predictors of seizures were positive indices of BBBD, namely elevation of serum S100β levels and computed tomography (CT) scans. In a porcine model of BBBD, identical procedures generated an identical result, and sudden behavioral and electrographic (EEG) seizures correlated with successful BBB disruption. The contribution of tumor or chemotherapy to acute seizures was therefore excluded.
Conclusion: This is the first study to correlate extent of acute BBB openings and development of seizures in humans and in a large animal model of BBB opening. Acute vascular failure is sufficient to cause seizures in the absence of CNS pathologies or chemotherapy.
