7 knot winds
clear sky mirror-smooth water
mix of open water and icebergs of all shapes and sizes
We saw the sun for the first time in quite a while this afternoon. Everyone made a trip out on deck or to the bridge to soak in the view and some sun. Winds were light, and temps were just below freezing, so being outside was fairly comfortable.
As you can see from the lat/long data, we have left the Larsen B area and begun our return trip north. We are currently headed into the Larsen A area, an area we worked in during May 2000. On that cruise, we had a low temperature of -23 C. Quite a difference from the conditions we have now. We will be collecting samples from a few sites in this area and deploying a sediment trap in front of the Drygalski Glacier to monitor the influx of sediment from the glacier into the basin.
9 knot winds
developing overcast with low clouds on the mountains
smooth water with a mix of small and large icebergs
The sun rose this morning through a heavy fog over the ocean, lighting the faces of the high peaks and plateaus that lie just off our position. By 10 a.m., the fog had burned off, and brilliant blue sky and spectacular view greeted the day shift as they headed to work and beckoned the night shift to skip lunch (their dinner).
As I mentioned in the last post, we have left the Larsen B area and are currently in the Larsen A embayment. Unlike the last time we were here (May 2000), the ice conditions have allowed us to penetrate virtually to the shoreline. The station we occupied this morning was less than a half mile off shore, but we were working in over 700 meters of water. Talk about sea floor relief!
This area is right where the Drygalski Glacier empties into the Weddell Sea. In the past, this massive valley glacier fed into the Larsen A ice shelf. Now it flows and calves directly into the Weddell Sea. One of the concerns following the breakup of the ice shelf is the effect that the breakup will have on the valley glaciers that fed the system. The breakup of the ice shelf will not, by itself, cause sea level rise. If you fill a glass with ice cubes and then fill it to the brim with water, the glass will not overflow as the ice melts because the ice is displacing the same volume as ice as it will occupy when it melts. The ice shelf itself is floating, and the majority of it is below the water, displacing an equal volume. The valley glaciers are another story. These are land based glaciers, and any ice input into the sea will increase the sea volume. When the iceshelf was present, it acted to slow the advance of these glaciers. Now that it is no longer present, we are seeing evidence of increasingly rapid flow of the valley glaciers in the Larsen A & B areas, supporting published observations by Pedro Skvarca, and hence increasing input of land based ice into the Weddell Sea.
Deployment of sediment traps for future recovery and evaluation of kasten core sediments are some of the methods we are using to get a handle on the influx of sediment into the system as a proxy for increasing ice input from the valley glaciers that once fed the ice sheets in both the Larsen A and B areas.
These studies complement the sediment flux studies we have been doing over the past 15 years in the fjords on the western side of the peninsula.
The spectacular scenery is fantastic but as Bruce Huber commented, it can be distracting when you are trying to accomplish a task.
News reports we are getting say that the northeast is getting a major snowstorm, so enjoy these warm sunny images from the Antarctic.

Now available with a faster "R" Orange Oil rubber compound. For racers and car enthusiasts with highly tuned cars. They use their car on the street and the race track and want one tyre to do both duties. Capable of astonishing lap times. It's the tyre used by World Time Attack Challenge Clubsprint competitors.
Street tyres work well when cold. Conventional rubber compounds reach their limit during high speed driving as heat softening quickly saps the tyres ability to grip the road. Using street tyres on the track can lead to slower lap times and rapid tread wear.
Race tyres, on the other hand, work well when hot. R-spec race tyres and slicks generate heat which helps them grip the race track. They work best above 60 degrees Celsius. Race tyres work best in the first heat cycles, then performance begins to drop off. Using race tyres on the street is uneconomical as it can waste heat cycles and reduce tyre performance.
Heat control is one of the key features of the ADVAN Neova AD08R. It deals with heat effectively and copes with hard driving with minimal wear. It really is the ultimate high performance road tyre. The downside with the original ADVAN Neova AD08 was that it tended to squeal a bit with track work. The new ADVAN Neova AD08R is more progressive with less squeal. It feels more like an R-compound tyre.
The Neova AD08R tread design is the same as the AD08. Sequential Round Grooves dissipate and spread forces over large unbroken tread sections. Uni-block shoulders are continuous for rigidity, powerful grip and lower lap times.
The new "R" tyre compound provides more initial grip, improved handling and improved lap times making an already great tyre even better. The rubber compound has more carbon, for dry grip; more silica, for wet grip and Yokohama's innovative Orange Oil tyre technology proven in the tyres used in the World Touring Car Championship.
The ADVAN Neova AD08R is the tyre used at the Yokohama World Time Attack Challenge in Clubsprint Class. Even with tighter 2013 rules the AD08Rs were capable of a 1:39.247 lap time at Sydney Motorsport Park in the Process West Subaru WRX Sti of Jason Wright and Autotech.
Set ADVAN Neovas up like race tyres so that your hot pressures, when you come off the track are between 32 and 36 psi. For an explanation on how to set hot tyre pressures read our blog.
On the street use the manufacturer's tyre placard pressure recommendations.

I use the AD08's on my Swift Sport for superkhana's and have been blown away by their performance and consistency under stress.As they are not a full r-compound tyre, I can easily leave them on after a track event for the next few days if I don't have the time to change them over before work. I will continue buying these tyres as they perfectly suit my needs and would happily recommend them to any others....read more »
ian,5/12/2013 9:57:00 AM
Fantastic grip! Had Pirelli p zero before stock, the ad08r much better in dry for concerning, stopping and acceleration. Wet/light rain driving is as if it's not wet. Tyres when push to limits loses traction for a millisecond and then grips and gets out of corner... Wow!! Vs p zero when pushed and loses traction it goes. Have ad08 front and rear is advan a13c (great in dry but hopeless in wet)Comment from Yokohama: Hi Ian thanks for the ADVAN Neova Tyre Review. We suggest you match your front and rear tyres. If you can't put the same tyre tread pattern front and rear at least put on a similar design. Go with all directional tyres - like the ADVAN Neova AD08. Or go with asymmetrical tyres like the Yokohama A13s. With a mix of tyres front and rear you may get unpredictable handling (especially in the wet, which you mentioned). Also, with an all wheel drive it makes sense to match the tyre tread pattern and tyre wear to keep the overall tyre diameters similar front and rear. That way the front and rear wheels are turning at the same speed and you won't over-work the centre differential. Also, you can reduce your tyre wear and noise by properly rotating your tyres as they wear. We hope this helps :)...read more »
Ash,10/01/2013 2:22:00 PM
After mixed experiences with previous tyres from premium Euro brands, I thought I'd give these a go. As far as bang for your buck goes, no tyre even comes close to the all-round performance of the AD08's.Not only did they survive the day-to-day stresses of a high torque FWD car on both road and track (and even surviving a cracked rim without any damage), but they've also had much more progressive wear and have easily lasted 30-40% longer than other sets of tyres I've used, with only minimal loss in performance.Hence I'm definitely getting another set fitted at my next change!!...read more »
Ash,29/12/2012 11:49:00 PM
WOW!I've only driven approximately 200kms through the hills with the AD08's and I now have a new found love for my car. I used to struggle with traction in the first 3 gears, now the tyres don't lose traction at all even in 1st on wide open throttle from a stop. Best thing I've bought for my car hands down, i'm just disappointed I waited so long to get them.. I can't wait to take my car on the track now!...read more »
peter,21/12/2012 4:40:00 PM
I had the Michelin pilot supersport on my vehicle before I purchased the neova. I was not overly impressed with the Michelin because the sidewalls were too soft and steering response was slow and cornering was squishy. Although, this tyre had great ultimate grip.My car also has upgraded bilstein shocks, eibach springs and uprated front and rear sway bars along with all suspension bushes upgraded in the front and rear. The setup is designed primarily for handling, but comfort is excellent.Since fitting the neova all I can say is wow!The steering response and cornering is sublime. The sidewalls are super stiff and feel fantastic on the road. During cornering there is no give on the sidewall and my confidence has increased. Maximum grip is higher than the Michelin too.In terms of road noise And comfort, they are excellent. Although the neova is a much stiffer tyre than the Michelin, it rides about the same. Road noise is about equal on smooth roads and about 5-10% noisier on rough roads which is hardly any different but noticeable.Yokohama have done an excellent job with this tyre and I will buy again!...read more »

Norwegian Gem Cruise Review by GEMboom: The GEM was dull on our 1st Norwegian vacation
Overall Member Rating
The GEM was dull on our 1st Norwegian vacation
Destination: Eastern Caribbean
Embarkation: New York (Manhattan)
We have cruised before and from the moment we stepped on the boat we believed it was a training boat and the staff had not had any customer service experience. We met some amazing staff which we could count on 2 hands and we rewarded them greatly. We waited for them, asked for them, and even followed them and at wherever we needed to sit in the Magenta and Grand Pacific just so we could guarantee better service.
Jonathan in the Magenta, Dheerhaj in Grand Pacific, Christina - Floating waitress on the deck with the pool, and Rolly statesman on 9th floor were amazing. Guest services - not so much.
if you are getting off in Great stirrup bay be the first get a ticket to get on the tender. it took us 3 hours to get off. They had 2 boats for over 3,000 people on the boat and it was disastrous.
Also our room smelled like the sewer and we were offered a bottle of wine and were moved to the room under the laundry room clearly a downgrade but if you have ever wondered More what it sounds like to dry dining room chairs let me know.
Unfortunately this is our first trip on norwegian back to Royal Carribean we go.
So find the good service on the boat and stick with it. Less

CBJ Playoff Hockey : Game 1
- Updated: April 17, 2014
Last night at 730 pm was the night we'd all waited for – PLAYOFF HOCKEY FOR THE COLUMBUS BLUE JACKETS! My brother came over to watch the game with me. Even my better half was excited. Her boss is from Pittsburgh, so of course he was throwing his two cents around all week. But she did wear her Nathan Horton shirt to work just to make him mad! My 3 year old son stayed up for the first period, and actually sat on his uncles lap and watched most of it. Of course when Jack Johnson scored the first goal of the game, and we yelled, it freaked him out and he ran to me, scared!
I didn't know what kind of expectations to have. A lot of people said the CBJ had ZERO shot at winning a game, let alone the series. But a lot of people were saying that Fleury wont be able to handle this series, in his head. So I just sat back and watched. Knowing that the first 10 minutes of the game, would more than likely set the tone for the entire game.
When Jack Johnson scored, it was like a relief. The CBJ managed to score the first goal and get that monkey of their backs. It took 10 minutes for the Pens to respond, and honestly I was shocked it took them that long to score. But then 45 seconds later, my guy, Mark Letestu scored a power play goal to take the lead again. Again, my son got scared.
I told my brother before the second period started, that I expect the Pens to come out guns ablazin'. Well, it was Derek Mackenzie that came out fast, scoring a short handed goal to make it 3-1. I took a deep breath, and whispered to my wife "Shhhhh dont say a word!" And just like that the Pens score 2 goals in 45 seconds. I was not surprised, I didn't even make a sound. Mainly because we had put my son to bed, and I didn't want to wake him. But also because I knew this was coming. We've all seen it before, just with different teams. Overall, the teams scored 3 goals in the first 2:19 of the second period.
When the Pens scored the go ahead goal, I knew the boys were in deep. Of course I had faith, no one is more positive than me when it comes to this team, but the Pens are shut down, and that's what they did! The CBJ couldn't muster anymore goals.
As much as I was frustrated with that loss, I never let it make me angry. Its obvious this team can play with the Pens, now they just need to put it together. I expect both teams to get better for Game 2, and it should be fun to watch. Stay the course guy and gals, we have a good team to watch. Lets be that 5th Line from home on Saturday! They know we're watching. CBJ-CBJ-CBJ-CBJ-CBJ!

Hell in a Cell is coming up Sunday night, and doesn't it feel too soon? Didn't we just have a PPV about two weeks ago? Here's a kicker—after Hell in a Cell, the Vengeance PPV is a short three weeks later.
Not trying to complain over WWE's PPV schedule, but if you want buys, you definitely need more time to build feuds in order to have a remote amount of hype for a match.
Anyway, enough of WWE's creative strategy. Let's talk about the event coming up. There are currently five matches coming up, and one hopes there's at least a couple more added on during the PPV itself, or else we may see more promos on a PPV than actual matches, which will be nice to get a head start on the Vengeance PPV.
Anyway, here is the lineup for Hell in a Cell and predictions on who may win.

The Democratic candidate in one of the region's hottest congressional races came clean Tuesday about his role in helping a third candidate get on the ballot in the hopes that he'll play spoiler.
Bryan Lentz, who is locked in a bitter battle for Congress with Republican Patrick Meehan, told the editorial board of the Delaware County Daily Times on Tuesday that he knew his volunteers had helped gather signatures for the independent candidate, Jim Schneller. Schneller, who espouses tea party rhetoric, is expected to siphon some votes from Meehan in the Seventh Congressional District race.
"If somebody's already made the decision to run, I didn't think that 'helping' with the process of signature petitions was improper," Lentz, 46, a two-term state representative, told the paper's editorial board in a tape-recorded interview.

McCoy Tyner/Alfredo Rodriguez: Toronto, December 11, 2010
Koerner Hall
Toronto, Canada
December 11, 2010
As part of the Aspects of Oscar series, featuring top jazz pianists performing in honor of the late Oscar Peterson, this particular evening brought two solo piano performances to Toronto's Koerner Hall: aspiring young Cuban talent, Alfredo Rodriguez, opened the show; while legendary giant, McCoy Tyner, completed the double bill.
It's likely that most of the audience attended the show with Tyner in mind. Rodriguez was, perhaps, a discovery for those unfamiliar with this young prodigy, just like the moment when producer Quincy Jones noticed him at the Montreux Jazz Festival. His style is a combination of percussive and classical, as well as Cuban. Based on this evening's selection, Rodriguez has a dominant classical side to his playing, hesitating somewhat with the jazz language but, no doubt, he will continue to evolve as a talent. Keith Jarrett came to mind in Rodriguez's drawing on the sounds of Ravel and Debussy, in addition to the pianist's emotive and contemplative textures. Rodriguez's melodies were couched in a camouflage of abstraction, as on his version of "Body and Soul," where the melody was hinted at, but only briefly. He showed something of a humorous touch on "Bare Necessities," a tune made popular by Walt Disney; here, again, the contemplative piece progressed with scattered hints at the melody, before coming to an abrupt halt. It then continues towards another musical thought before closing on the theme itself.
During a post-intermission interview conducted by Mervon Mehta, Tyner talked about his initial foray into music. His first jazz hero was Bud Powell, someone with whom he invited to come play in his mom's beauty shop, while he met Oscar Peterson much later, during a tour with John Coltrane.
Tyner played a short, forty-minute set in, perhaps, the best context to witness echoes of yesteryear. His last local performance was during the 2006 Toronto Jazz Festival, where he played with other major players including trombonist Steve Turre and saxophonist Eric Alexander. Here, however, while keeping both the rhythm and the bass line in motion, he moved through comfortable tunes like "All The Way" and Duke Ellington's "In A Mellow Tone."
The spirit of the classic John Coltrane Quartet's popular arrangement to "Afro Blue" was mainly felt in the waltz-time "African Village," which followed a similar melodic pattern. Tyner played a bit of Thelonious Monk for the encore, to close a truly classic jazz evening.

Gesta To Train at Big Bear, Eyes Juan Manuel Marquez
By Chris Robinson
It's been known for quite some time that Juan Manuel Marquez has been eyeing a July 14th assignment reserved for Cowboys Stadium in Dallas, Texas, but who exactly the Mexico City stalwart is going to be facing is still undetermined.
Several names have been floated around as opponents for the four-division champion, including Zab Judah, Brandon Rios, and Mike Alvarado, but at the moment Marquez seems to have narrowed the list down to just two possibilities; his countryman Erik Morales and aspiring lightweight contender Mercito 'No Mercy' Gesta.
The Mandaue City, Philippines born Gesta is coming off of an eighth round TKO over well-traveled Columbian Oscar Cuero on April 14th at the Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas, Nevada. The 24-year old southpaw raised his record to 25-0-1 with 13 knockouts with that performance and is on the verge of diving into another rigorous training camp.
"I'm excited for the next one," Gesta would tell me on Sunday night. "I'm going to start my conditioning this Monday and we're going to start the next one, hopefully I'll be fighting for a big one. I don't know who's going to be the opponent but I'm excited."
Gesta has seen his name linked to Marquez for nearly three months now and admits he is dying to know if he will end up being his dance partner come July.
"I want to know," Gesta would admit. "I'm kind of excited. I know it's not confirmed but I hope he would choose me. Right now it doesn't affect me, whoever he's going to choose. Because I'm always ready. I'm going to train like I'm fighting for a big fight. If he chooses me, that's perfect because I'm always training like a title fight. I'm always ready."
Morales has endeared himself to the boxing public over the years because of the amount of thrilling moments he has produced in the ring and the Tijuana fighter's comeback to the sport in 2010 produced some positive results, including a toe-to-toe war with Marcos Maidana in April of last year and a 10th round TKO over Pablo Cesar Cano last September that saw him lift the vacant WBC junior welterweight belt into the air.
Morales would lose the WBC title one fight later when he was beaten down by young upstart Danny Garcia on March 24th in a fight in which he looked every bit of his 35 years old late in the fight on his way to a unanimous decision loss.
"I see him kind of slowing down now," Gesta would say of Morales. "I think people like that fight because he is an icon, kind of like Marquez. But Marquez, I would pick him to win that fight if it happens. Morales, I just think he's slowing down and he can't pull the trigger anymore."
There was some uncertainty as to where exactly Gesta would be staging his latest training camp, as he had been spending time at the Wild Card Boxing Club in Los Angeles for previous fights before setting up shop in his adopted hometown of San Diego while training for the Cuero match.
This time around it looks like Gesta will again be changing things up and he seems enthused about the latest move.
"I'm going to go to Big Bear for my training camp, starting June 1st," said Gesta. "We want to push more and trainer harder for this fight. I think it will be a big fight and that's why we feel we need to go to Big Bear. It's high-altitude, where the champions train."

History of Jeep Wranglers!
Hey guys! In my English composition 2 class I am writing a research paper:banghead:. I chose to write about the history of Jeep Wranglers. I am having an awful hard figuring out where to start and sources to write my research paper on. Anyone have any leads to good sources books ect..
Thanks :dance:
Petersons 4 wheel offroad did an article in january of 2012 on it. If you cant find it on their website i can send you some pictures
The Jeep - Modern Marvels
jeep the modern marvel episode and 4x4s modern marvles
7 Attachment(s)
Heres the article from petersons. I had ti split it up but what they out in the article is all here
You guys are awesome!!
Well, to start with, I think you have the wrong title. The generic name for the 1/4-ton chassis 4x4 that has been continuously made since 1941 is "Jeep Universal" the major variants of this are and were:
1941 to 1970's - M1, M38, etc. military Jeeps.
1947 to 1986 - Civilian Jeep series (CJs)
1984 to 1995 - YJ Wrangler
1997 to 2006 - TJ Wrangler
2007 to Present - JK Wrangler
A good source is the "Jeep Owner's Bible" by Moses Ludel, make sure you read the most current edition.
All Jeep Universals 1941 - 2006 were manufactured in the same Willys factory in Detroit except for a brief period 1942-1945 when both Willys and Ford manufactured the Willys design, which actually was developed by a third vehicle manufacturer namem Bantam, which was acquired by Willys before the war ended.
There's a lot there, your only problem is gonna be selecting what you want to talk about.
I just bought the Jeep Owners Bible, I'll check out JP subscription costs. Thanks again guys.
Jeep History
Google is your friend there is enough out there to write a short paper on the history and more than 3 sources for the bibliography.

In Brief: Mercyhurst creates new institute
Mercyhurst University creates new institute
Mercyhurst University has launched the Institute for Applied Behavioral Studies (MIABS) as an umbrella for the university's special education and applied behavior analysis (ABA) programs and a key resource that provides specialized services to educators, behavior specialists and children and adults with special needs.
Mercyhurst has long been known as a regional leader in special education and behavior analysis training; however, the university was also providing support services, such as consultation, professional development and program development across the country, which led to the decision to create an institute.
For more information about the Institute for Applied Behavioral Studies, visit mercyhurst.edu/miabs or e-mail email@example.com.

Here we go again. A parent in Seminole County, Fla. found that her nine year old brought home This One Summer by Mariko Tamaki and Jillian Tamaki and thought it was way too adult for her kid and complained, and the local TV news has launched an investigation and discovered that shockingly, the book, which […]
" that This One Summer is a Caldecott Honor book, the highest honor a YA book"
The Printz award is for YA books.
"The Michael L. Printz Award is an award for a book that exemplifies literary excellence in young adult literature."
The Caldecott:
"It is awarded annually by the Association for Library Service to Children, a division of the American Library Association, to the artist of the most distinguished American picture book for children. "
The Newbery:
"It is awarded annually by the Association for Library Service to Children, a division of the American Library Association, to the author of the most distinguished contribution to American literature for children."
This One Summer was a Caldecott Honor and a Printz Honor recipient. The same year, "El Deafo" was a Newbery Honor title.
How loud can I SIGH?
So, Mrs. Arbogast, do you really find this graphic novel objectionable or do you think people don't show you enough attention.
…about kids reading something relating to real life.
Maybe parents should go and help their child select books.
Parent AND child will be at opening night of Deadpool. Classic Florida!

What Women Entrepreneurs Can Learn From Elizabeth Gilbert
I am stronger than Depression and braver than Loneliness and nothing will ever exhaust me. This quotation is part of a much longer one that both calmed and strengthened Gilbert when she was at her point of greatest despair. Alone and crying out for the first time to God, what she heard in response from deep within herself was this: She was never alone, eternally loved, and always protected. As women entrepreneurs, haven't we all been there? Alone. Crying out in the dark. Looking more for a connection than for answers. Whether that calm, all-knowing voice actually comes from God or from within, it is good to keep in mind that we are not alone.

Two new films about Glenn Gould
June 12, 2014 by norman lebrecht
Much to watch on Youtube, if you're not fixated on the football.
Two early films have been uploaded about Glenn Gould, both from 1959.
Don't just sit there, click here.

Nowadays little Glenn would be placed on the Autism Spectrum and prescribed drugs for his Obsessive Compulsive Disorder.
Gould did take medication, David, and lots of it. Many times he'd neglect to or forget to, however.
It's becoming more evident that years of abusing prescription drugs is what lead to Glenn Gould's stroke and eventual death.
More about Glenn Gould… ad infinitum… ad nauseam….. let's take a look.

The 2012 ODFW auction and raffles for big game hunting tags grossed $523,202, of which $308,566 will go to the Access and Habitat Program and $179,937 to big game research and management.
The auction of 11 special big game tags grossed $347,000 including $110,000 for a bighorn sheep tag. The sportsman/conservation groups that sponsored the auctions at various meetings and conventions of their organizations in the past few months will keep 10 percent of the auction proceeds ($34,700). Those groups include state and/or national chapters of the Mule Deer Foundation, Safari Club International, Wild Sheep Foundation, Oregon Bow Hunters, Rocky Mt Elk Foundation, and the Oregon Hunters Association.
Raffle winners were drawn at the Oregon Hunters Association convention on May 19, 2012 in Redmond. Nearly 64,000 raffle tickets were sold grossing $176,202, including $42,653 in sales for a bighorn sheep tag and $41,907 for elk tags.
Proceeds from the deer and elk tags will go to the Access and Habitat Program to fund wildlife habitat and hunter access improvement projects in the state. Proceeds from the pronghorn, bighorn sheep and Rocky Mountain goat raffles and auctions fund the research and management of those species in Oregon.
Winners of the special tags enjoy an extended season and expanded hunt area. For more information on Oregon's Auction and Raffle Big Game Tags visit www.OregonRaffleHunts.com [2].

Use cron jobs to backup Cloud Sites to Cloud Files
Note: This article is written for our Cloud Sites Control Panel. You can get to it from the Cloud Control Panel by clicking Rackspace Cloud in the upper-left corner and selecting Cloud Sites. You can also navigate directly to https://manage.rackspacecloud.com/.
Note: The library used by this script is no longer supported. We suggest Cloud Sites customers use the Zipit tool to run scheduled backups through cron instead.
Before using the scripts in this article, consider this more comprehensive script that can be installed for your site. While the scripts in this article serve as a simple example, the other script offers more robust logging and error checking for long-term use.
In order to backup Cloud Sites to Cloud Files using this example, you will need to create two cron jobs. One cron job will backup the cloud site and database and the second cron job will upload the backup to Cloud Files. This is a very simple example and should not be used for extremely large sites and databases to backup to Cloud Files.
Set up a cron job to back up your site
For the first cron, create a file called backup.sh. This file should be placed in the root of your domain. You will want to place the following code inside of it:
#Set information specific to your site
webroot="YOUR WEBROOT"
db_host="YOUR DB HOST"
db_user="YOUR DB USERNAME"
db_password="YOUR DB PASSWORD"
db_name="YOUR DB NAME"
#Set the date and name for the backup files
date=`date '+%F-%H-%M'`
#Dump the mysql database
mysqldump -h $db_host -u $db_user --password="$db_password" $db_name > $webroot/db_backup.sql
#Backup Site
tar -czpvf $webroot/sitebackup.tar.gz $webroot/web/content/
#Compress DB and Site backup into one file
tar --exclude 'sitebackup' --remove-files -czpvf $webroot/$backupname $webroot/sitebackup.tar.gz $webroot/db_backup.sql
#Upload your files to cloud files.
#First argument is the location of the backup file, second argument is the name to be used when uploaded
php $webroot/cloudfiles_backup.php $webroot/$backupname $backupname
#After your backup has been uploaded, remove the tar ball from the filesystem.
rm $webroot/$backupname
In the above script, you will need to replace the portions in ALL CAPS with your actual information as follows:
YOUR WEBROOT - This is the absolute path to your files. You can find this path by clicking on Hosting, Cloud Sites, Features, and scrolling down. This will be the "Linux Path" listed there. An example would be: /mnt/target02/123456/www.domain.com (Note, the /web/content is not included in that path)
YOUR DB HOST - Database Host an example would be mysql5-9.wc1 or mysql50-78.wc1.dfw1.stabletransit.com
YOUR DB PASSWORD - the password on this database (note the single quotes and that there is no space between the -p and the single quote)
YOUR DB USER - the database username (e.g.: 12345_username)
YOUR DB NAME - the name of the database you are backing up (e.g.: 12345_database_name). Note that there is no parameter for this option unlike the previous examples (-h -p and -u respectively).
Place this file in your web root.
Connect to Cloud Files
For this step, you will need to have access to Cloud Files. If you are not sure or have not set up Cloud Files on your account, please visit Getting Started with Cloud Files for more information on setting up your Cloud Files account. Also, please note that you may incur any charges associated with using Cloud Files. For more information regarding Cloud Files costs please visit: http://www.rackspacecloud.com/cloud_hosting_products/files/pricing/
Now obtain and set up the PHP API. To download the PHP API documentation and files, click here. If you click the "Downloads" button you can then download the files in a zip archive.
Once you download the archive, unpack it. Then go to your site root and create a directory named "cloudfiles". Upload the files that were in the PHP API archive into the new "cloudfiles" directory.
Next you will need to create a simple PHP script to connect to Cloud Files and upload the backup you are creating. We'll call it "cloudfiles_backup.php" and put it in the same location as the shell script (your web root directory). This file will be called by the shell script we wrote earlier, so if you change that name make sure to find its reference in the shell script and change it there too.
Here are the contents of the script:
// include the API - note we must use the absolute server path because this script will be executed through php technology and not http
require("/YOUR WEBROOT/cloudfiles/cloudfiles.php");
// cloud info
$username = "YOUR USERNAME"; // username
$key = "YOUR API KEY"; // api key
$containername = "YOUR CONTAINER NAME"; // container name
// backup file name from command-line argument
$backup = $argv[1];
// Name to use for file once uploaded
$uploadname = $argv[2];
// Connect to Rackspace
$auth = new CF_Authentication($username, $key);
$conn = new CF_Connection($auth);
// Get the container we want to use
$container = $conn->get_container($containername);
// upload file to Rackspace
$object = $container->create_object($uploadname);
Like the first script, in the above script you will need to replace the portions in ALL CAPS with your proper values. This includes:
YOUR WEBROOT - As it was before, this is your Linux path, as specified under the "Features" tab for your site.
YOUR USERNAME - Your Rackspace Cloud Files user name (the one you use to log into the control panel).
YOUR API KEY - Your Cloud Files API key. You can get the API key in the control panel in the "Your Account" section in the sidebar, under "API Access".
YOUR CONTAINER NAME - The name of the container you're using on Cloud Files to hold the backup file.
Set up the cron job to upload to Cloud Files
The final step is to automate all of this by setting up the actual cron job within your control panel.
The task we create will execute the backup.sh script we created during step 1. The following screen shows a sample of the setup process in the Classic Cloud Control Panel for this task. Please note that the date, time and frequency can be modified to best suite your needs.
In the above example we chose "Perl" as the scripting language (the "Perl" option is used to run shell scripts as well) and scheduled the task to run daily at 6:45 AM Central time.
Now you have created a method to backup your Cloud Site to your Cloud Files account. Using our cron system will allow you to regulate how often you would like to create and upload your backups.

The Rackspace Cloud is not able to provide code support for your Cloud Sites and web applications. This article is designed to offer a very simple script that will backup your Cloud Site to your Cloud Files account. You are welcome to modify any part of these scripts to meet your own needs.
