The Division focuses on the poorest and most vulnerable developing countries in the world. Specifically, it aims to increase understanding of the development problems of Africa and the Least Developed Countries (LDCs), as well as countries with specific geographical impediments, notably Landlocked Developing Countries (LLDCs) and Small Island Developing States (SIDS).
The Division proposes policies for actions to support inclusive and sustainable development.
Over 90 developing countries fall under the Division's areas of work.
Prospects for African economic growth look bright, the fifty-seventh executive session of UNCTAD's Trade and Development Board has been told.
The Deputy Secretary-General of UNCTAD has discussed intensified cooperation for aid to Africa, with the heads of three Japanese development agencies. The meetings took place on the occasion of the fifth Tokyo International Conference on African Development (TICAD V), which was held in Yokohama from 1 to 3 June.
Eighty government officials and private tourism operators have received instruction by UNCTAD on how to practise sustainable tourism that contributes to economic development.

News 12 at 11 o'clock / Tuesday, May 15, 2012
EVANS, Ga. -- Greenbrier High School seniors are just days away from walking across the stage and getting their diplomas. But four girls, some of whom are on the school's varsity cheerleading team, won't be taking part in graduation after pulling a senior prank that turned criminal.
Their plan is now being called the most expensive senior prank the school district has seen.
Four girls are accused of super gluing more than three dozen locks at Greenbrier High School and Columbia County investigators say more arrests are coming.
So far, 17-year-old Elizabeth Metz, 17-year-old Dynisha Clemons, 18-year-old Kristin Tannehill and 17-year-old Brooklyn Bella are charged with second-degree criminal damage to property.
Principal Chris Seagraves checked out the school's keypads.
"We were able to save the one up front, and I think we are going to be able to save this one, too," Seagraves said.
The same can't be said for the rest of the school's locks.
"You see, I can't. The key won't go into the key way," Seagraves said.
That is because late Thursday night, four Greenbrier High School seniors are accused of super gluing all of the exterior doors.
"This was malicious. There was nothing funny about this, not at all," he said.
The prank included 43 locks and if you take a look at some of the doors, you can see where the super glue dripped and then dried. The total cost in damages is $5,130.
"It is taxpayer dollars and, you know, right now our dollars are so short. We're coming up short to even balance our budget," said Columbia County Superintendent Charles Nagle.
School officials have decided not to let the girls walk during graduation Saturday and they won't be getting their diplomas until they foot the bill.
"It's a tough call and it's a very unpopular call, but then again, this was more than just a prank," Seagraves said.
While the prank got them kicked out of graduation, the girls may now have bigger problems because locking everybody out meant getting locked up.
"In the students' minds, it was a prank; in our minds, it was vandalism," Nagle said.
But, for the record, "I'm not going to have anybody come on my campus and do something to the school that I'm responsible for and expect nothing to happen to them," Seagraves warned.
News 12 reached out to all of the girls and their families. Two of the girls agreed to sit down with us for an interview but their lawyers decided against it.
Overall, the parents told News 12, their daughters are not criminals, they are good kids. They say the girls have been emotionally distraught over not being able to walk during graduation.

FOLSOM -- The Amgen Tour of California grinded through the first two days like clockwork after English star Bradley Wiggins won the individual time trial Monday on a blazing day along the American River.
Wiggins' easy victory in 23 minutes, 18 seconds came a day after fellow British star Mark Cavendish won the opening stage in Sacramento in the closest finish in the tour's nine-year history.
But here come the mountains. And just in time for rising temperatures in the Bay Area that threaten to turn the weeklong event into an overheated exercise in survival.
"I think there is only so much the human body can take," said Wiggins, who in 2012 became the first Englishman to win a Tour de France.
Wiggins, 34, has a 44-second lead over Garmin-Sharp's Rohan Dennis of Australia, who was second in the time trial. But Wiggins will take a sizable lead over the other favorites as they head into the "Queens Stage" on Tuesday that starts at Lake Cunningham in San Jose and ends with a 10.8-mile climb to Mount Diablo's summit.
The 108½-mile course also includes a climb over Mount Hamilton. With temperatures forecast in the mid-90s, the riders could suffer mightily as they try to take the jersey from the only man to win the Tour de France and Olympic gold medal in the same year.
Wiggins followed his Tour victory in 2012 with a gold medal in the time trial at the London Games.
After an injury-plagued season last year, the Team Sky star showed just why he is considered one of the greatest cyclists of his generation.
He tore through the 12.6-mile course that ended in downtown Folsom as if he were driving along the Bonneville Flats.
Santa Rosa-based Peter Stetina worried before the tour that Wiggins might build a 2-minute lead on him during the time trial.
He wished. The BMC Racing leader is 2½ minutes behind heading into the pivotal stage for the big climbers. Wiggins has command of the tour that ends Sunday in Thousand Oaks.
"I knew I was good coming in this race, but you never can account for how other people are going to do," he said.
The starting field of 128 riders survived the first two days in the Central Valley and Sierra foothills. But it might be a race of attrition Tuesday.
BMC's Taylor Phinney, who took third Monday, admittedly dislikes the heat. But he might have been speaking for everyone when saying, "You're not feeling good either way."
Well, everyone except Wiggins.
The Brit feels the pressure is off while his Team Sky teammates shepherd him over Hamilton and to the top of 3,848-foot Diablo.
"It's more for our team to do the best they can do to finish it up on the climb," he said. "It's going to be a long week for them boys."
Wiggins' strategy to fight the heat? He held up a water bottle like a schoolboy at show-and-tell.
"We've been here for a couple weeks, so we got used to the heat," Wiggins said. "But it still doesn't make it any easier."
It won't get easier for Team Belkin leader Laurens ten Dam, who got knocked down from behind after finishing 41st Monday. As he lay on the burning pavement, it looked as if one of the race favorites was out.
But ten Dam limped to the Belkin team car.

Jack Nicholson has decided to call it a career, according to RadarOnline.
"Jack has -- without fanfare -- retired," a well-placed Hollywood film insider told the website. "There is a simple reason behind his decision -- it's memory loss. Quite frankly, at 76, Jack has memory issues and can no longer remember the lines being asked of him. His memory isn't what it used to be."
C'mon ... this can't be happening. Marlon Brando used cue cards. C'mon ...
The three-time Academy Award winner hasn't appeared in a film since "How Do You Know," in 2010, which co-starred Reese Witherspoon, Paul Rudd and Owen Wilson.
C'mon, Jack ... you can't go out on "How Do You Know."
C'mon ... please?
Producers for the upcoming film "Nebraska" wanted him to play an aging, booze-addled father traveling from Montana to Nebraska with his estranged son to claim a million dollar Mega Sweepstakes Marketing prize.
Nicholson declined the offer, and the role went to Bruce Dern, according to RadarOnline.
Nicholson began his career in the 1950s as a gofer for animation legends William Hanna and Joseph Barbera at the MGM cartoon studio. The New Jersey-native made his film debut in the low-budget teen drama "The Cry Baby Killer," in 1958.
If he is retired, he'll likely be best remembered for his Academy Award-winning roles in "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest," "As Good as It Gets," and "Terms of Endearment." He's also been nominated for a record-setting 12 Oscars, eight for Best Actor and four for Best Supporting Actor, making him the most nominated male actor in Academy Awards history.
"Jack has no intention of retiring from the limelight," said the source, who noted Nicholson's regular appearances on the Hollywood party circuit, Lakers games and his co-presentation of the Academy Award for Best Picture with First Lady Michelle Obama earlier this year.
"He's not retiring from public life, at all. He just doesn't want a tribute," said the insider. "He's happy to tacitly join the retirees club like Sean Connery."

OAKLAND -- Nearly three decades ago, when Peter Gleick started the Pacific Institute to work on water and other environmental issues, California was in the grip of a fierce drought.
Today, things don't look much different. The state is parched, the reservoirs low, and Gleick finds himself in the familiar position of pushing decision makers to adopt new water policies and alerting the public to just how dire the water shortage is -- and how much worse it will get.
"In California, we have a belief that we'll muddle through" the droughts, he said. "And we do muddle through, but it's getting more and more difficult."
It's a slow and often heated battle Gleick, an internationally recognized expert on climate and water issues, has chosen to fight since founding the Oakland-based environmental research center in 1987. The politics around climate change are often combative; water management can be difficult and expensive, and many Californians are quick to resume their lawn watering and long showers during the wet years.
"Peter really is a standout voice for some basic common sense," said Gavin Schmidt, a New York-based climate scientist for the NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies. "Peter understands not just the water utilization issue, but climate change's impact on water."
This year, water is center stage in California, as the drought now entering its third year has left farms to wither and put at least 17 communities in danger of running dry. But Gleick's 30 years of effort are starting to bear fruit, according to some climate scientists. These days, California is focused on conserving and recycling water, rather than carving out new reservoirs.
"Peter and his organization were talking about this well before it was fashionable, and they broadened the discussion away from old-style solutions like building more dams," said Michael Mann, a professor of meteorology at Penn State University whose work was influenced by Gleick.
But Gleick, 57, got tripped up in heated climate politics in 2012 when he admitted to using a fake name to obtain internal documents from the libertarian Heartland Institute, an anti-regulation group that works to minimize or refute global warming. He took a four-month leave of absence and was reinstated after the Pacific Institute cleared him of wrongdoing. The incident gained national attention, and Gleick was forced to resign from the chairmanship of the American Geophysical Union's ethics committee.
The Heartland Institute continues to push for criminal charges.
Gleick proved he "has no moral qualms about committing serious crimes to advance an ideological agenda," said Heartland spokesman Jim Lakely. No one "should take seriously anything he has to say about the climate. To the extent he's shaped public opinion, he's actually decreased the public's understanding of the climate."
Gleick is not remorseful: "The science of climate change is incredibly strong," he said. "There is a remaining small group of deniers who try to misuse the science but I think are really afraid of the policy debate about what to do about climate change. Like the tobacco industry, I think history will show them for what they are."
Despite claiming an aversion to domestic politics, Gleick has very much been a part of the political scene, meeting with state and White House officials to discuss water management practices. He wrote a report in 2003 on urban water use that helped shape the California Water Plan in 2005.
Among Gleick's recommendations for better water management: improved ground water management, stricter water restrictions, improving inefficient agriculture and industry water systems, charging consumers more on their monthly water bill, and replacing manicured lawns with native plants and home appliances with water-saving models -- both of which he and his wife have done at their Berkeley home.
"His work certainly affected California water planning," said Gary Wolff, executive director of StopWaste, the Alameda County waste and water management division, who worked at the Pacific Institute from 2000 to 2005. "But federal policies have been so backwards I can't really say it affected national policy that much."
In 2000, Gleick helped write the national assessment on climate change, and a couple of years ago, he published a book outlining proposals for federal water policy reform. Still, few of his recommendations have been considered, he says.
Although the U.S. House of Representatives this month passed a relief package for California, Gleick isn't convinced water is a priority.
"At the federal level, water is not yet a crisis," he said. But, he cautions, the fight for water is really the fight for life.
"It's tied to energy and climate and health and economics and politics and natural resources," he said. "In the end, it's really tied to everything. "

They came, they saw, and then they went to work with shovels, disinfectants and other essentials – that's how 1,000 volunteers spent last Saturday's Irish Day of Action for the Rockaways, the traditionally Irish peninsula in Queens which is still struggling with the overwhelming after-effects of Hurricane Sandy.
Coordinated by the Irish Consulate in New York in conjunction with several other Irish American groups, the Day of Action was a rousing success, with buses full of workers from Manhattan, the Bronx, Queens, Westchester and Rockland – not to mention those who traveled independently – descending on various Rockaway communities to offer their physical and moral support.
Wearing "Irish Day of Action" t-shirts donated by Aer Lingus, the brisk, windy day didn't deter volunteers both young and older from pitching in to help clean out basements, rip down walls, toss damaged furniture and distribute meals to local residents, many of whom continue to be displaced by Sandy's unprecedented punch.
"What I witnessed last Saturday was all that is best about the Irish and Irish American communities in New York -- Irish people of all ages and backgrounds coming together to do practical work for the benefit of those who suffered most, irrespective of their ethnicity," Irish Consul General Noel Kilkenny told the Irish Voice.
"Seeing nearly 1,000 Irish going about restoring the homes, neighborhoods and livelihoods destroyed by Sandy would make you so proud. It was certainly the proudest moment I have experienced as consul general of Ireland in New York."
The Irish outreach centers – the Emerald Isle, Aisling Irish Center and the New York Irish Center – have been sending volunteers to the Rockaways since the storm struck on October 29, and their knowledge of the area proved instrumental in ensuring that the Day of Action was well coordinated from start to finish.
Buses were dispatched to five locations throughout the Rockaways, including Breezy Point, the area most rocked by the storm with more than 100 homes burned to the ground. Irish organizers also worked with locals and New York officials to ensure that the man, woman and even kid power they supplied was used to maximum effect.
Most of the volunteers who traveled on the buses – which departed their locations at 7 a.m. – were in place and ready for assignments by 9 a.m. Trucks provided by Liffey Van Lines once again transported heavy goods to places where the volunteers were working, and the day wrapped up after 3 p.m. as darkness began to set in.
The locals were exceptionally grateful for the assistance from their Irish friends. "They are such wonderful people," said Sandra Boyle as she dished out hot pasta inside a food and warming tent donated by Irish company Navillus Construction at St. Francis De Sales Church on Beach 129th Street.
Boyle works at the Emerald Isle Immigration Center in Queens and was glad to give her Saturday over to helping those who badly need it. So was Mary Cassells, a native of Clare who lives in Putnam County with her husband Martin and daughters Siobhan and Courtney.
"We really wanted to do something," Mary told the Irish Voice. "And when we saw that there was an Irish Day of Action we signed right up."
The Cassells family went home to home with a number of other Irish volunteers. They helped one elderly lady clean out her ruined kitchen.
"It's such a different experience being here as opposed to seeing it on TV," said Siobhan, a sentiment shared by most of the Irish volunteers, some of whom were visiting the Rockaways for the first time.
Laurence McGoldrick lived in New York for 45 years, and moved back to Belmullet, Co. Mayo in 2007 with his wife. They have two children who still reside in New York, and McGoldrick was here visiting them for Thanksgiving.
"I definitely made a point to volunteer today," he told the Irish Voice. "I used to come out here in the 1960s so I really felt like I wanted to help."
McGoldrick worked in construction with Structure Tone, so his skills came in handy. He helped to take up a floor in one person's home that had been covered in three feet of sand, and he worked on a kitchen demo.
"I watched the storm on TV in Ireland," he said. "It was scary. And I can't believe what I'm seeing here today.
"But I also have to say that the volunteers I've met have been just wonderful. The Irish really know how to help each other out when we need it most."
Young members of the Shannon Gaels Football Club in Queens flexed their muscles and used their seemingly boundless amounts of energy to shift heavy couches and tables from one residence on Beach 128th Street. The furniture pieces would have been tough to carry down the narrow staircase – "but someone had to have gotten them up here," one of the teens rightly noted – so the guys opened the doors of the small porch and heaved them down on the street.

I really don't know if I should blog that I practice Naked Yoga for Men in such a public forum for athletes, but because I am writing this I guess I already have done.< I've already defended my Yoga practice in another forum, that being my regular myspace blog, Trail Running Dolphin Talker, but I only have one reader and here at Active I have many potential readers that are cross sectionally diverse and may hail from many different backgrounds than I do, but realizing that, so do I and my practice, my training is just as valid as any others. So I won't attempt to defend it, I already have. I know it doesn't appeal to most people, especially women, cos I've asked but it is the most suitable practice for myself. Everytime I go to the yoga studio I realize at least one more thing about why I like practicing yoga naked. The latest realization today is because your yoga clothes don't stink.
But really it all depends on the instructor and how you respond to the discipline they are sharing with you that determines how you enjoy your practice. Naked Yoga for Men isn't full of flawless instructors, but there are 2 that I respond to and they each have their own sidiosyncracies that make them so dear to me. Darren Main is described by other yoga instructors as a "Rock Star" and as far as that goes its true that he has the name recognition, published books, podcasts and instructional DVDs. I'd call him a joke cracker. He's always trying to make light in class. He gives a good work out and always a thoughtful meditation, but he's not as New Agey as I like. Ken Brenniman is more on my metaphysical level with his meditations, mindful practice and the way he makes me and other yogis feel comfortable no matter what level they are in. He reminds me that 'yoga is a non-competitive sport' and that is his quote. That statement is important for me to realize when I am competing in endurance events. Ultimately, I'm in competition with myself, against myself because in this existence, everything I perceive is a manifestation of this consciousness, and the trials I choose for myself are all generated by myself. Well before I go out on a total digression, lets just say that Ken Rocks.
But tonights class that is usually taught by Darren was subbed by Chad Stose, the regular Saturday night instructor. He is from an Anusura school, whereas Darren and Ken are aligned with Hatha. I was excited to see a chime, because ringing a bell is one of my favorite New Age practices. His workout was challenging. Definitely at an advanced level that I'm not quite at yet. We had to do some partner work, which I 'm really not excited to do, but because of peer pressure never bow out of, an assisted pigeon. I did learn some new techniques and he took the time to show me an asana that will help relieve my recurrent calf strain. If I had the time I would definitely take his class on Saturdays, but as I usually work probabbly wont have the chance to. Other than that it was a great class. I rattled of a great Death Metal Ohm at first ohm but really need to work on that gr gr gr growling ununiversal tone.
So in future when I refer to Yoga, just remember that it is going to be a naked practice unless I state otherwise.
I also picked up a new yoga mat and some ski gear this morning with MG for our trip to British Colombia. I am looking forward to adding skiing and snowmobiling to the mix of my endurance training.

Fanstastic Value for Monet
Reviewed by Richard Seddon. Review Posted 16/04/2012
I bought this TV for my son's bedroom along with the samsung 3d blu ray player. I thought that for the money it wouldnt be that good. However, I was amazed. My son is now never out of his room.
It is 1080p, sound quality is good and not too tinny.
It even records live tv if you add in a UBS stick or hard drive to the USB connection on the side.
The only downside is that it does not recieved freeview HD channels. However, my son uses the network player and bluray more than the TV.
Really good buy

Legal brief in Farmers Branch immigration case filed on impact of Arizona decision
As expected, the city of Farmers Branch filed arguments this week in the Fifth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals on why they'd like another round at defending their ordinance on illegal immigration.
As requested, they detail in a 73-page filing why their position is buttressed by a June 25th ruling by the U.S. Supreme Court on a tough Arizona law, known as SB 1070.
The Supremes struck down three of four portions of that law under review. The most publicized part of the law was upheld and it involves local law enforcement checks of those detained who are suspected of being in the U.S.unlawfully.
The city's ordinance was first crafted in 2006 and has been struck down by lower court judges and in a ruling by a three-judge panel from the New Orleans-based appellate court.
Farmers Branch asked for and received a rehearing before the full court. In their brief, Farmers Branch outside attorneys also argue how another Supreme Court case out of Arizona buttresses their position. The decision is known as the Whiting case and it deals a 2007 case involving a tough state law cracking down on business licenses of employers who knowingly hire those in the U.S. illegally. (Here's more on Whiting from the Scotusblog.)
Attorneys representing tenants and landlords have until Aug. 30th to file their brief. Oral arguments are set for September 19th.
Those crafting the legal crusade for the city include Kris Kobach, the Kansas secretary of state involved in other such fights around the country. His legal adversaries include the ACLU, also quite seasoned in these litigation brawls.

So on my Tivo, I am able to subscribe to podcasts (that Tivo offers through TivoCast) and it will download them and put them in my Now Playing list automatically.
I'd like to do something similar with PMS. Basically run a lightweight program that keeps track of podcasts I want to watch and downloads them whenever a new one is released.
It sounds like "Juice" is a good tool for this, is anyone using this - or does anyone use something else?

Without a shift in policy to bury the hatchet on this issue, laws will forever bounce back and forth between advocates and opposition. Everyone has guns, or nobody has guns. Either decision will solidify our gun culture in the states.
Relinquishing our arms opens the floodgates for the black market to take a deeper foothold than ever before, or worse, allow the birth of a police state. Prohibition of anything allows an illegal market to fester and sprout crime syndicates and violence. A fully armed citizenry would decimate the illegal gun trade and reflexively cause gun offenders to think twice about drawing a weapon to intimidate or commit a crime.

" They cannot even keep drugs out of prisons never mind out of civilians hands. Guns are the same way. Lawbreakers will go to jail if they commit their crime with a hammer, but a gun will help them commit the crime and if caught they were going to go to jail anyway. Gun control is probably a harbinger of truth to how bad the economy will really get. Social securities and lots of pensions were built Madoff style and the privileged class on Wall St. might run out of middle class to fund their champagne dreams. There are already fringe rumors that there are FEMA camps waiting for those who protest the loss of the Constitution. "

" From History.com: "...in 1920 when Congress ratified the 18th Amendment, prohibiting the manufacture, transportation and sale of intoxicating liquors. Prohibition proved difficult to enforce and failed to have the intended effect of eliminating crime and other social problems--to the contrary, it led to a rise in organized crime, as the bootlegging of alcohol became an ever-more lucrative operation. In 1933, widespread public disillusionment led Congress to ratify the 21st Amendment, which repealed Prohibition." "

Only black people,what a lack of respect for the dead, what did they do next force her stiff body in to a casket???I was so distraught when my mom died the last thing on my mind was a partyI couldn't even bear to view her body but yet these children prop their mother up in a chair, stick a cigarette in her mouth, and a can of beer on the side gross just plain gross and disrespectfull.
Sounds more like they honored her memory to me. Every person, family, death, and grieving process is different. For all you know, this is precisely what she would have wanted. Not honoring that would have been true disrespect in my opinion. To each their own.
I'm truly sorry for your loss and your suffering. Peace.
I would love to be honored by being displayed doing what I enjoyed in life. If this is how the woman lead her life, than this was respectfully and none of your business if YOU don't like it.
You are replying to old news, do you live in a remote area perhaps where your internet is slow and may be up once a week you got news that everyone else has read already?? and you just may get your wish more sooner than later to be propped up in corpse form while others look on at your family's ignorance.and stupidity Now you can like this or not.
Sorry but the lack of respect is your comment regarding black people. Just because you wouldn't do it, doesn't mean it's wrong or disrespectful. Ever heard of to each his own?
Why are you responding to a story that is a couple of months old?? it shows how out of touch you are, and as you said to each his own and so my comment is my (OWN) opinion (TO EACH HIS OWN) get it, now go and catch up on what's going on in the world today such as the Michael Brown case in Ferguson, Missouri and not what happen two months ago.
whats wrong with looking at things from two months ago.. ?? i guess that makes history class completely irrelevant
Am I too late here?? Sorry but Ive been busy with life…just catching up now on my (old) news. BTW your opening few words really show the total lack of class you have, do you enjoy living as a bigot?
hey.. you're really dumb. Just thought you should know if you didn't already.
When my grandfather died, the alcoholic children & grandchildren among us (I was not one) were sitting under the "tree" drinking early in the day, as is usual for them. My mother a self-professed Jehovah Witness came to the porch and started screaming saying . . . yall ain't got no sense, our father just died and yall under the tree drinking etc. etc. One uncle stuttered something really profound, he said:
"You cain't tell nobodee how ta moan!"
And you know what? In his uneducated drunkin stupor, he was right! You can't. My husband and I wanted to laugh so hard, but knew that if we did, my mother would have really lost it because:
A. Its true, B. Dude was funny, C. "Moaning" is personal!
D: You can't tell nobody how to mourn!
So funny ! And I am sorry for the loss of your grandfather,having THOSE type of family members around sounds like he really is in a better place. "HELL IS OTHER PEOPLE"
Thanx for the wishes. I'm not mad at those other people, they were being themselves. One has passed on, one is ill and the other is probably still being profound all the while mispronouncing every word! LOL!
Grandpops — well, after living thru Jim Crow, working 1 job for 50 years, taking care of a wife, 9 children & what seems like 100's of grands, he and the Creator are probably sipping tea. LOL! Peace.
Like someone commented, to each it's own. But I guess it's all about the life you live, because I think this the "tackiest" "s —–t" I have EVER HEARD…LOL!!
Who cares, they could as well bake her for dinner, thats their right, right? Thats a black man's mentality displayed in foreign land. We don't do that to our departed in this part of the world. We absolutely respect and send them away with dignity here in Africa, no matter our financial stand. We respect the dead.
This is disturbing. I feel sick…
Sick. On the other hand, I guess she's just a happier version of Norman Bates's mother.
That's my wish… have a party with all the friends, family and any stranger that wants to send me off. In my case a martini…but run if it goes dry. 🙂
Do not mourn for me as I have moved on BUT please, PLEASE do send me away with a bang. Let's celebrate all that life offered while I was here.
cheers Mae Mae, where ever you may be!
Wow really Rosemary ?? you are the type of person who keeps hate going in the world. You really think that the color of someone's skin has something to do with being wierd or dumb? If that were true then where does that leave you because I am sure you are white maybe even a skin head or Nazi. You are not any better than anyone else but I'm sure you are worse.
Why are we not surprised over the stupid stuff that spades do?

Top 3 Cloud Computing Principles
By user13366078 on Apr 15, 2009
As with every new topic in IT, people are wondering about the same questions: Hype or reality? Didn't we kinda have this before? What's in it for me? What's so special about it? Cloud computing is no exception and I've had the privilege to discuss this topic with a number of very bright people over the last couple of months.
To separate the wheat from the chaff, here are the top three key principles of cloud computing that struck me as making this topic very relevant, interesting and definitely the way of the future:
#1: Abstraction
For decades, IT providers have tried to standardize their operations so they can concentrate on optimizing their IT.
But this is in contrast to what IT developers and users want: They want their special version of Apache, with the newest version of PHP and "sorry, but I can't live without these 5 plugins in exactly that versions".
So much for standardization, and thus we ended up with dozens of different versions of the same services, hundreds of different services that we grew up over time with ("Of course we need the foo service, our company can't live without it! No, we can't re-implement it, that would be too expensive, you'll have to continue operating it!"). This is why compute centers today tend to look like Frankenstein's lab instead of the clean infrastructure we'd really like to have, from an architecture perspective.
Cloud computing has found a way to break out of this: A cloud gives you just a few basic, but well-defined services and that's it. Take it or leave it. "Do you like our simple, RESTful foo interface? Fine, use it!", or: "Oh, you want your own special custom version? Sorry, we don't have it. Go away." It's that simple.
This is obviously good for cloud providers, because they now can optimize the bejeezus out of their infrastructure and provide nice, massive scale, low-cost, simple to administer services, which is every IT provider's dream come true.
The new thing here is that now the developers have realized this is good for them, too (and Amazon's success is a testimony to that effect): They can now use whatever version of their software they want, on whatever OS they want and get as many updates as they want, without having to ask their IT provider.
Granted, now the burden of managing the software falls onto the developer/user, but in the end this is a win-win for both, because both sides know exactly what to expect from the other, the rules are clear, and the interface between provider and developer/user is well-defined. Of course, low service costs to the developer always helps, but we'll get to that later.
So the key point here is that well-defined abstraction layers between clouds and developers/users are the grease that lets both sides operate efficiently and completely independent of each other.
#1.1: Layers of Abstraction in Clouds
There are three layers of abstraction in clouds:
- Application as a Service (AaaS): This is what the end-user gets when they use a service like GMail, DropBox (please make an OpenSolaris version, thanks), the myriads of Facebook apps, SmugMug or even Adobe's online photoshop web service. AaaS services are very popular and there's really no reason to start a new application any other way today.
- Platform as a Service (PaaS): The abstraction layer here is some kind of developer environment, but the details of implementation (OS, Hardware, etc.) are completely hidden. You just get a programming language and some APIs/Libraries and off you go. This is what Zembly gives you (check it out and create your own Facebook app in minutes), or the Google App Engine. This is the development model of the future: Develop against the cloud, no need to know the details behind it.
- Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS): These are the Amazon S3s, EC2s, etc. and we recently introduced our own version of IaaS as the Sun Cloud (featuring open interfaces and a lot of Sun technology goodness under the hood.) In this model, you get access to a virtual server or virtual storage, treat them like real machines, but the physical details of what machine is in what rack or which disks you use are hidden from you.
Most discussions around clouds center around IaaS, but remember that the basic principle of abstraction applies to the other two as well. Also, many AaaS offerings are either implemented on top of a PaaS or IaaS offerings on someone else's cloud, so we already see a whole ecosystem of cloud components working together in a pyramid like fashion, building on top of each other.
The nice thing about the Sun Cloud here is that it'll open up the abstraction layer. Just like programming environments, file server or web protocols, there's a lot of value in open standards and interfaces. That's what Sun's cloud offering is about, so our "open grease" between cloud providers and developers will enable freedom of choice, better interoperability and bigger, open cloud market for all. Check out "RESTing on the Cloud with Open APIs" for a discussion on the Sun Cloud APIs.
#2: Automation
Again, this may seem like nothing new, because IT operators have tried to automate as much as possible within their datacenters forever. From our own history of Sun MC through N1 and now xVM Ops Center to other people's Tivoli's, OpenView and whathave you, we've seen a lot in data center automation, but none of these went the whole way of providing true one-click setup or tear-down of a complete server over the public internet.
Automation in the cloud means the developer/user is in complete, automatic control over their resources. No human interaction whatsoever, even from a developer/user perspective. Need more servers? Let the load-balancer tell the cloud how many more to provide. No need to wait for someone to unpack and cable your machine, no need to wait for your IT department to find the time to install. Everything is automatic.
Again, this is a win-win for both sides. While full automation reduces cost and complexity for the cloud provider, it puts the developer/user in control. Now you can reduce your time to market for your next rollout because you can do it yourself, fully automatic, and you don't need to call anybody, rely on someone else to set up stuff for you, or wait days until some minor hardware/software installation is completed.
The Sun Cloud brings automation to the next level: With its Virtual Datacenter Technology, you'll be able to automate a full virtual datacenter in the cloud out of standard components, not just individual machines.
#3: Elasticity
In the nineties, people bought large, expensive, scalable servers and waited for them to fill up over time as their companies grew. This was of course highly inefficient because most of the time you didn't use most of your server. After the dot-com bust, people became smarter and started scaling horizontally. That allowed you to add capacity to your datacenter in smaller chunks and on an as-needed basis. But what if you need a lot of capacity on one day (because your startup got Techcrunched), but the next day you're back to humble levels of usage, because it's the weekend or the wrong season or there's a major recession coming up? As an extreme case: What if you ran the Olympics website and the games are just over?
That's when elasticity comes in very handy: You can easily scale up your cloud usage, but you can just as easily scale it down again. One day you have 500 web servers, 50 app servers and 10 database servers, the next day you could easily go back to the old 50:5:2 ratio. And you only pay for what you use, never for what could have been.
On a technical level, elasticity is a direct outcome of automation, our #2 principle outlined above.
But the real invention here is in the business model of cloud providers: By multiplexing their resources over a large number of customers, they can level out differing capacity needs, so that they get good resource utilization on a big scale, no matter how much or little resources individual users actually use. And by giving their customers transparent access to this model, they enable them to take advantage of a fully elastic pay-per-use-no-strings-attached model that makes a cloud service so attractive.
And this is what your traditional hoster never gave you before: Whenever you wanted some service from an old-school hoster, you'd have to sign a contract that looks like a mobile phone contract with lots of fine print and whatnot. It's easy to scale up, but then you have to commit to some usage period (like 24 months) and usually it's hard or downright impossible to scale down the size of the service you got. You could easily get stuck.
Cloud computing changes everything with its "look Ma, I can scale like Google!" model: Everybody with a credit card can operate a large datacenter for whatever time they want (and have credit for), and shut it down whenever they like.
The Sun Cloud will expand the business possibilities of the cloud model: You can choose to be the cloud (and we'll help you build it), you can choose to build the cloud (for others, out of our cloud components), you can build your own cloud (we'll help you build that, too) or you can just use it (the Sun Cloud). Just like we believe in open standards, we also believe in partnering, so no matter what your cloud business model is, Sun can help.
A lot of people discuss a lot of aspects of clouds these days, but to me, it's just the three principles above that really count.
You can use them as a litmus test for clouds: Where's the abstraction layer? Is it open? Is it fully automated? Where's the API? What if I scale down, not up? What's the cost model? If one of the above principles are missing, it's probably not a cloud. If they are there, it's most probably a cloud.
Or you can use these three principles to figure out if your internal IT operations are ready for the cloud: Can you implement your service by exclusively using a cloud API? Would you be able to encapsulate your current service inside a virtual machine, then redeploy elsewhere? How about using a PaaS model for developing your next app? Do you really want to afford your own IT infrastructure if you can just rent it like a taxi? What services would need to be re-implemented, and why? These are all good questions to ask when discussing clouds with colleagues and vendors.
But remember that cloud computing is not going to end hunger, bring world peace and cure cancer, all at once and today: Some services fit the cloud model very well (hint: Everything that looks like a web service also looks like a good candidate), some don't (If it's still on a mainframe, forget it). The answer is almost always a mixture, and it will become more interesting as public and private clouds start to interoperate, much like intranets and the internet interoperate today.
Useful Cloud Resources
There's a lot to learn about clouds and a lot of bright people are blogging about it. Here are a few points to start from:
- Play a bit on Zembly.com. This is a great IDE for web apps, offered as a PaaS in the cloud. Translation: Log in and create your own Facebook/Meebo/iPhone app in your browser in minutes, the social way.
- Check out the Innovating@Sun blog entry on "RESTing on the Cloud with Open APIs" to learn about what Hal Stern and Tim Bray have to say on the Sun Coud's RESTful APIs. Also, the Virtual Datacenter Demo is very impressive, and there are a number of other interesting videos on that site.
- Glenn Brunette has a lot to say about security and clouds, certainly a hot topic. His Immutable Service Containers are the way to go for securely deploying web services in large infrastructures, including clouds.
- If you understand German, there are some excellent German blogs to read. Check out Ralf Zenses' Blog, or Jan Brosowski's (who offers a slightly different definition of cloud principles) or the Serverwolken blog.
- If you prefer to read English, don't despair. Check out the Sun Cloud Blog, or Alka Gupta's Blog with many interesting articles. Marc Hamilton also let's you look at cool hardware building blocks for the cloud as well as HPC clouds.
- There's a great whitepaper from Berkeley University called Above the Clouds, a real must-read. Also, there's a great Cloud Computing Guide on the Sun Cloud page, well worth the small hassle to register for it.
- Finally, if you think you've read enough, then relax by watching a cool video from our partner rPath: Cloud Computing in Plain English.
What are your cloud principles? What aspects of cloud computing are important to you? What important cloud aspect am I missing that would warrant its own principle? Feel free to add your own comment on cloud computing to this post!

For the desk-bound worker, Beth Hubbard's job might sound divine.
Fresh air. Sunshine.
"Yeah, it's great being outdoors," said Hubbard, a pile driver. "But the flip side is when it's 105 degrees or pouring rain."
It was the latter in December and January when 46-year-old Hubbard worked on a crew dismantling a supply trestle from beneath the new Bay Bridge.
Carbon arc welding and water don't mix, she said. If the welder is wet when she strikes an arc, it delivers a nasty shock. Wear waterproof clothing and the sparks melt your rain gear.
But every occupation has its sparks. Not every job has a 360-degree view of San Francisco Bay.
"For years, we've had this old trestle thing on the east side that didn't hold up to the earthquake and now we have this beautiful suspension bridge," Hubbard said. "I think we outdid San Francisco."
The daughter of a San Francisco firefighter, Hubbard began as a carpenter but switched after she saw pile drivers in action in the mid-1990s.
She has seen her share of bad male behavior but times have changed for the better and she credits her union for nurturing women.
In the end, though, what matters is doing the job.
"I'm not a woman or man at work, I'm a pile driver," Hubbard said.
-- Lisa Vorderbrueggen
Job: Pile driver, welder, dive tender and rigger for 16 years with the Pile Drivers, Divers, Bridge, Wharf and Dock Builders Local 34 in Oakland
Age: 46
Residence: Walnut Creek
Bay Bridge work: She helped remove a steel trestle from beneath the span that was no longer needed, and she worked on skyway as a welder and fabricator.
Advice: "Don't let what you have heard in the past influence you. Not only have the people changed but the job has changed. We have equipment to do what used to require brute strength. If you are willing to get in there and do the work, the people in the trades are more than willing to take you in and teach you what you need to know."

Minor, the Southland Conference Newcomer of the Year and a First Team All-Southland pick this season, came out of McLennan Community College and dominated the league in his first season. He had a 2.20 ERA, the lowest among Southland Conference starters, and had the second-best totals in strikeouts (110), complete games (four) and innings pitched (110.1) with the third-most wins in the Southland, tying a school record with 10 on the year.
The junior was named Southland Conference Pitcher of the Week four times during the season, the highest among all players in the Southland, and was named a Louisville Slugger National Player of the Week on March 12th following a 14-strikeout, complete-game shutout performance against UTSA.
Minor led the Texas A&M – Corpus Christi pitching staff to one of the best seasons in school history, finishing with a 4.21 ERA as a team, and tying the school record of 420 strikeouts that was set a year ago.
He becomes the seventh draft pick in Islanders history. The previous high pick was pitcher Todd Simko, who was taken in the 21st round of the 2011 with pick No. 637 by the Washington Nationals.
The draft will continue through round 15 today, and will finish with rounds 16-40 tomorrow. Players selected in the MLB Draft have until July 13 to sign with their respective teams. If terms are not agreed to by 4 p.m. CST, the team forfeits their rights to the pick, and the player returns to school.

After two decades of such wandering, however, they have settled in the western United States and are enthusiastically sinking roots. Mr. Forbes is currently the music leader for the children's auxiliary in his congregation, and his goal is for the children to learn the Gospel message, learn to love to sing to God, and to make a "Joyful Noise". He says: "As a missionary and as a military man, I've traveled the world and seen a lot of good and a lot of beauty. I have also seen a lot of ugliness. It seems all the beauty I've seen can be attributed to a very loving God - This is what I want to spend the rest of my life celebrating."
