rsync can be used in many ways. This small utility got its name from Remote Synchronization words. However the word remote does no have to be a remote location over the network. rsync can be also used to synchronize your camera photos with your PC's hard drive. No fancy MS windows synchornizator tools which came with your camera are nedded. Here are simple steps how to sychronize:
first find you USB device name:
# fdisk -l
# mount your USB:
# mkdir /media/camera
# mount /dev/sdb1 /media/camera/
create local directory for your photos:
$ mkdir ~/photos
synchronize your photos:
$ rsync -av /media/camera/ ~/photos
All done. Next time when you make some new pictures just repeat the the following:
# fdisk -l
# mount /dev/sdb1 /media/camera/
$ rsync -av /media/camera/ ~/photos
at this point rsync will copy only new images. This is also good way to keep a backup of you images.
-a, --archive archive mode
-v, --verbose increase verbosity
If you own a Thecus 2100 NAS storage and you need to recover from some software accident you have two options. One is to use a USB serial connector or use telnet to stop booting sequence of Redboot loader. Here is how to do the second, easier option.
What you will need is:
Note:You need to have a Thecus Firmware version =< 2.1.05 . In my case I had 2.1.10 and it all worked perfectly.
To star first install iputils-arping and telnet packages on your PC / laptop:
# apt-get install iputils-arping telnet
Connect your PC with an Ethernet cable to your Thecus box to INTERFACE 1. Set your PC's ip address to 192.168.1.101. Let's assume that your PC's Ethernet card connected to Thecus 2100 is eth0:
# ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.101
Redboot sets its default IP address on Thecus 2100 to 192.168.1.100 so that is the reason we had set our PS's IP address on tha same subnet. All what needs to be done now is to execute a following command on your PC:
arping -f 192.168.1.100 && telnet 192.168.1.100 9000
Now just simply reboot or power on your Thecus N2100 and wait. Once you see a screen similar to the one below enter CTRL+C to abort execution of a boot script.
WARNING: interface is ignored: Operation not permitted ARPING 192.168.1.100 from 192.168.1.101 eth0 Unicast reply from 192.168.1.100 [00:14:FD:30:16:4E] 11.605ms Sent 16 probes (16 broadcast(s)) Received 1 response(s) Trying 192.168.1.100... Connected to 192.168.1.100. Escape character is '^]'. == Executing boot script in 2.920 seconds - enter ^C to abort ^C^C RedBoot>
I have installed a Debian on my N2100 yesterday and it is just great. I wonder why the Thecus guys do not put a full version of debian into this small box by default :-). Since this is a headless PC I was missing that last beep once the system booted so I would know when I can ssh to it. Here is a small hack to overcome this problem. First install a beep package:
# apt-get isntall beep
The open up a /etc/init.d/ssh file and scroll right to the bottom and replace: exit 0
beep -l 1000 exit 0
the -l option specifies a length of the beep so feel free to adjust it to your needs.

I just wanted to ask those whose experience OALD (I also have oversupply but that seems to be easing up a bit now that we are 6 weeks in) how long your LO feeds for. I was at the hospital last night with my DD (which is a long story - but she is fine!) and the nurse left the room as I was starting to feed her. She returned about 10 minutes later with the doctor and couldn't believe that we were done already. My DD often only takes one breast and gulps away for 6-10 minutes and then pulls off. The odd time she has marathon sessions and takes both breasts, sometimes more than once, but that is not the norm. My LC said that it was okay and that she was getting lots of milk (she is gaining like crazy). She explained that she was getting lots of milk really quickly, swallowing with each suck, and that it might take another mother with slower let-down and less milk more time to nurse. It made sense to me at the time.
Just wondering how long your LO feeds for - the nurse made me feel like we might have a problem??

Cleveland ghost hunters forming local chapter
EAST PALESTINE – Engaging in curiosity about the after life, Jennifer Albert is expanding the research organization she founded in Cleveland about two years ago.
Albert was born and raised in East Palestine and relocated to the village recently after living in Cleveland for college, where she earned a Bachelor's degree in criminology and psychology. She founded the Cleveland Paranormal Research Society while attending college and has always been interested in the paranormal.
Her own experiences include communicating with her deceased grandmother in her childhood home on West Main Street, and seeing or hearing spirits through the use of equipment geared toward paranormal research.
One piece of equipment is called a Spirit Box, and is a device that allows spirits to speak through the white noise created through radio channels as they are being scanned.
Other, more common equipment used in the research are computers, digital cameras and digital recorders.
On the society's Google page, clevelandparanormalresearch, Albert said the digital equipment is great for capturing things not seen by the naked eye, such as orbs or mists that signify the presence of spirits.
She finds the communication to be a comfort and not something to be afraid of, although caution is always advised.
The purpose of the research society is to help people understand the paranormal world.
"We want to bring closure to those in need about loved ones they have lost and educate people on what could be on the other side after death," she said.
The society also attempts to help spirits who may be "trapped on Earth move on since their journey has ended," she added.
Since its founding the society has gained a crew of eight people and conducted investigations in places such as the Mansfield Reformatory, Ashtabula, Elyria, East Palestine, and most recently at Hill View Manor in New Castle, Pa.
Ironically, the trip on March 16 drew a group of 13, she said.
"We actually had a lot of really good results, good mist pictures. It was an all-around really good experience. We had things whistle at us. The Spirit Box was very active all night," she said.
While the investigations typically draw people who are already interested in the paranormal, some skeptics have taken advantage as well, she said.
"Obviously you're going to have skeptics. I had been there previously so I knew the place legitimately has things going on," she said of Hill View.
Hill View Manor was constructed in Lawrence County in the late 1920s for purpose of housing the mentally ill, aged and homeless. The 63,000-square-foot facility closed in 2004 as a result of financial difficulties. More information is available online at www.hauntedhillview.com
The society has another investigation planned for the Mansfield Reformatory on May 16 and tickets are already sold out. The crew conducted a successful investigation there last summer, she said.
While that event is no longer available, those interested in the paranormal will have plenty of opportunities to get involved since the society is now serving Columbiana, Mahoning, Allegheny, and Lawrence counties.
Specific coverage will include the cities of Salem, Youngstown, Warren, Pittsburgh and New Castle, Pa. The society plans to have a local office out of Shops on Main in East Palestine in May, Albert said.
"We are looking at getting a lot of projects in this area going, to stir up the economy here," she said.
The society functions on donations and will be selling T-shirts and bracelets at the East Palestine Street Fair and Columbiana County Fair. A portion of the proceeds will go toward the Ballas Foundation in California, a non-profit organization for suicide prevention.
Albert said she got connected with the non-profit after learning it was looking for sponsors.
"If we can do something to keep someone from a committing a crime that can't be undone we will do whatever we can to help," she said.
The society is an official member of the Ghost Adventures Crew and can be contacted on Facebook and Twitter. It can also be reached by phone at 216-632-2702.

Air Quality Home | About Air Quality | Learn More
About Ozone
Ozone is a gas that you cannot see or smell. Ozone occurs naturally in the sky about 10 to 30 miles above the Earth's surface. Sometimes, this ozone is called "good ozone" because it forms a layer that protects life on earth from the sun's harmful rays. Ground-level ozone can be harmful for your health and the environment.
Ground-level ozone forms when pollutants from cars and trucks, power plants, factories and other sources come in contact with each other in heat and sunlight. Factors such as weather conditions and intensity of sunlight also play a part in how ozone is formed. Ground-level ozone is one of the biggest parts of smog, and it is usually worse in the summer months.
Many urban areas tend to have higher levels of ground-level ozone but rural areas have ground-level ozone, too. Wind carries ozone and the pollutants that form it hundreds of miles from their original sources, and rural areas have sources of ozone that contribute to this problem.
About Particulate Matter
Particle pollution, or particulate matter, consists of particles that are in the air, including dust, dirt, soot and smoke, and little drops of liquid. Some particles, such as soot or smoke, are large or dark enough to be seen. Other particles are so small that you cannot see them.
Particle pollution can come from primary or secondary sources. A primary source, such as wood stoves or forest fires, lets off particle pollution directly. A secondary source lets off gases that react and form particles. Examples of secondary sources are coal fires and power plants. Particle pollution also comes from motor vehicles, factories, and construction sites. These can be primary or secondary sources. Particle pollution can be a problem at different times of the year, depending on where you live.
Particle pollution includes:
- coarse particles that are between 2.5 and 10 micrometers
- fine particles that are between 0.1 micrometers and 2.5 micrometers (also known as PM2.5)
- ultrafine particles that are smaller than 0.1 micrometers.
Particles bigger than 10 micrometers can irritate your eyes, nose and throat but do not usually reach your lungs. Ten micrometers is about seven times thinner than one human hair.
Fine and ultrafine particles are the size of most concern because they are most likely to cause health problems. Their small size allows them to get into the deep part of your lungs and even into your blood.

Life as a Burmese Refugee in Thailand
Suppakit and his family are a part of the Karen tribal group, which is a minority group in Burma. Because the Burmese government oppresses numerous ethnic groups, his family lived in extremely difficult circumstances and eventually fled to Thailand. Now Suppakit's family is recognized as Burmese refugees who have limited rights in Thailand.Continue Reading ›

Recipe from How to Cook Everything.
Chicken Cutlets and Tomatoes in Packages
Makes: 4 servings
Time: 1 hour
You can steam chicken directly over water, but better, in my opinion, is to steam the chicken, along with the flavorful juices of wine, tomato, oil, or stock, in a wrapped package in the oven. This method—traditionally called cooking en papillote—is simple and foolproof. It's also impressive to serve individual packages at the table, using either parchment paper or aluminum foil to wrap the chicken and its seasonings. Easier still, if not quite as attractive, is to combine everything in a covered glass or ceramic baking dish.
Other protein you can use in this recipe: any cutlets—pork, veal, or turkey.

For several years, many Goliad County citizens have applauded the activities of the EMS director who has provided outstanding professional services and demonstrated a unique ability to obtain grants and other operational funds.
The credibility of the EMS director and that of the county judge received a serious setback at the July 28 commissioners court meeting when the judge (not too artfully) dodged the agenda item concerning a report regarding the status of an earlier proposal concerning the county association with DeTar Hospital.
The judge's reluctance was subsequently re-identified by Ms. Fonseca's proposal for a new facility obviously to be shared by the Goliad County EMS and a hospital emergency room operated by an unidentified (presumably DeTar Hospital) staff.
Things went downhill from this point when citizens questioned details including cost, hospital association, management and locations. The situation deteriorated further when it became obvious that persons indicated as supporters had not been previously consulted and, in fact, had not expressed the support claimed.
More and more it appears that the court is being led to rush to judgement without due consideration of citizens' concerns, actual requirements, cost or effectiveness of a poorly conceived and less than carefully planned facility.
At this stage, the proposals appear to be more an ego trip for the advocates than an exercise in serving the needs of the community.
John Caldwell,
Goliad County

Looking back on your life, you can see how the places you've lived have shaped you into the person you are today. If, for example, you're from New York City, you might give a condescending huff anytime someone from another part of the country complains about "traffic" or mentions "fashion" or praises a "bagel." News flash, New Yorkers: Idahoans can eat bagels too!

In the same way that people are molded by their hometowns, important events can't be divorced from the places where they happened. Sometimes geography itself becomes the Overlook Hotel of history.
4The Manson Murders Could Have Happened Only in California
Stockbyte/Stockbyte/Getty Images
A few world-changing events happened in the summer of '69: Hippies had their shindig at Woodstock, a man walked on the moon, 9-year-old Bryan Adams was probably a solid year or two away from getting his first boner, and in Southern California Charles Manson and his band of drug-fueled acolytes horrifically murdered eight complete strangers in the hopes of starting a pseudo-apocalyptic race war. (It didn't work.) Without getting knee-deep into the horrific, grisly details that surrounded the actual killings, the key to remember about what became known as the Tate-Labianca murders is that Manson himself didn't commit them. His followers did, under his guidance and insane instructions. The other thing to remember is that Mr. Manson couldn't pull this shit off anywhere else in the world. Not a chance.
Why Location Mattered
Take a guy like Manson and plop him down in regular ol' middle America, and he's just a crazy guy with a wonky eye and a motormouth. In fact, Manson was a run-of-the-mill screw-up his whole life -- in West Virginia; Ohio; Indiana; Washington, D.C.; and Florida. But then something happened -- he was arrested in California. And it was California that put Manson in prison for seven years in the 1960s, and California where he was paroled in 1967.
Ingram Publishing/Ingram Publishing/Getty Images
He was free only for about 33 months.
This is where things take a turn for the Satanic. California, for all its liberal leanings and laid-back vibes, has been a hub for fringe religious cults for decades. Jim Jones and his ill-fated Peoples Temple followers were headquartered in San Francisco. Children of God, the weird sex cult that River Phoenix's family belonged to when he was a kid, was started in Huntington Beach, California. Branch Davidians: California. Remember those guys who killed themselves to reach an alien ship traveling on the Hale-Bopp comet? San Diego. Scientology? Southern California. Finding a cult that didn't get its start in California is like finding a silicon breast implant that didn't end up there.
Stockbyte/Stockbyte/Getty Images
Enjoy the fresh air while you can, little pre-boob.
Not only was/is California "Cult State, USA," but in 1967 California was also home to tens of thousands of disenchanted young hippies looking for their slice of the counterculture pie. So what do you get when you mix a two-bit pimp with America's runaways in a bowl primed for fringe religious movements? Sadly, eight murders that made no sense.
After all, Manson wasn't the brightest guy on the block, as IQ tests later confirmed. And he didn't have many original ideas -- his whole message was a garbled amalgamation of other people's writings -- everything from the Book of Revelation, his weirdo interpretations of Beatles lyrics, and the self-help book How to Win Friends and Influence People got thrown in the Manson sermons. It just so happened that his audience was composed of young girls too naive and too drugged to notice he was spewing complete nonsense.
You'd think the flying gestures would have tipped them off.
3The OxyContin Epidemic Started in Appalachia for a Reason
Juanmonino/Vetta/Getty Images
Quick question: What's the scariest drug in the whole world? First answer: the love of a good woman. Second answer: heroin. If you know anything about drugs, it's that anyone doing heroin is at the end of their line, and not just because Trainspotting, Breaking Bad, True Life, The Wire, Gia, Little Miss Sunshine, Pulp Fiction, Forrest Gump, Ray, jazz music in general, and the future Janis Joplin biopic tell us so. There's "Oh, I'm sorry about your drug problem" drug addiction, and there's "I'll start writing the eulogy that will be given after your inevitable overdose" addiction, and heroin falls in the second category.
Not even fairytale heroines are immune to heroin.
Heroin was the king of Addiction Mountain until the prescribed opioid painkiller OxyContin came along in the late '90s. Suddenly, a bad back, tooth extraction, or particularly heavy menstrual cramp could get the sufferer a doctor-approved prescription for drugs so powerful that they could be compared only to heroin, especially when abusers figured out how to snort and inject them. By the early 2000s, OxyContin had a nickname: hillbilly heroin. And Oxy didn't get the "hillbilly" part of its nickname because the pills grew up in a double-wide or wore tiny overalls. That would have been awesome, though.
The nickname "hillbilly heroin" came about because the rural counties of Appalachia were the first to get eaten alive by pill addiction. By 2001, Kentucky, Southern Ohio, and West Virginia were all facing an epidemic that made the crack panic look like a whack panic. (Sorry.)
Why Location Mattered
Have you ever spent a 12-hour workday on your hands and knees? Don't answer that, down-and-out prostitutes. For the generations of men who have no other way to earn a living but to rip minerals and fuel out of the depths of Earth itself, chronic pain and traumatic injuries are inextricably linked to putting dinner on the table. So, for years coal miners relied on medication just to keep their bodies on the job. Even after the mines dried up, the pro-pill culture was already decades old. Pills were good. Pills helped. Pills kept dad working and grandpa alive until black lung took him down in the end. What choice was there? Like Tommy Lee Jones said in Coal Miner's Daughter, when you lived in Kentucky the choices were "coal mine, moonshine, or move on down the line."
Universal Studios
Tommy Lee went with all three.
Fast-forward to 1995, when Purdue Pharmaceuticals claimed they had a new pain pill that was less addictive than anything else on the market. To get their new product into the right hands, Purdue aggressively marketed OxyContin to doctors in regions where the economy ran on manual laborers -- loggers, miners, construction workers, a few fruit-pickers named Manuel.
There were two problems; once users figured out how to obliterate the drug's time-released formula by snorting it or injecting it, all promises that OxyContin was less addictive went out the window with the unattended Oxy babies. The other problem was Florida. By the time coal country had a clue that maybe Grandma shouldn't be self-treating her arthritis by injecting her hand with crushed pills, it was too late. Florida had the loosest prescription laws on the books, no oversight, and were more than happy to set up pill mills to keep everyone else medicated. Suddenly, you could pick up pills without prescriptions from the same strip mall where you get your payday loans and eat questionable Chinese food.
olesiabilkei/iStock/Getty Images
"I'm so high right now!"
The good news is that after the CDC declared that painkiller overdoses had hit epidemic levels, the government and the pill companies started getting their act together. Florida got a crackdown on pill mills, and Purdue changed its formula so OxyContin can't be crushed for the one-time high. The bad news? Heroin is on the rise again.

The problem of Urinary Incontinence affects about 25 Million Americans. Most of the people feel shy to talk about this condition.
Nancy Muller, PhD, executive director of National Association for Continence says that people does not even take the name of Bladder in front of others so, that others may not laugh at them. With the passage of time, the response of people is bit changed.
Muller says rather than waiting for 10 years, women now wait about 61/2 years and talk to doctor about this issue.
There many Myths and Facts, which are related to the Incontinence. Some are as follows

Helen Fielding Kills Off Mark Darcy In Latest 'Bridget Jones' Novel
Bridget Jones fans were left reeling on Sunday when news broke that author Helen Fielding has killed off the title character's husband, Mark Darcy, in her latest novel.
Britain's Sunday Times published an excerpt of Fielding's new book, "Mad About The Boy", revealing that the unlucky-in-love Jones, 51 and a widowed mother of two. The story takes place five years after Darcy's death, when Jones meets new beau, 30-year-old Roxster, on twitter.

Renee Zellweger and Colin Firth played Jones and Darcy in the movie adaptations of the first two book in the series, Bridget Jones's Diary and Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason.

Railroads get the attention they need
The value of rails tends to get lost in the shuffle of transportation priorities locally. But that appears to be changing.
All the money was secured by late December for a new rail bridge to be managed by the Lycoming Valley Railroad at Loyalsock Creek in Montoursville. The former bridge was destroyed by Tropical Storm Lee in September 2011 and a replacement is important to the economy of our area, especially the Muncy-Montgomery-Montoursville corridor.
On a more long-term basis, rails were an important part of the 20-year transportation plan approved by the Williamsport Area Transportation Study in December.
Officials acknowledged, perhaps more than ever, that rail service is part of the long-term economic strategy for the area and hope to add to that portfolio in the future.
If railroad inventory can be revived – even for passenger service – in the future, the area's economic attractiveness will be greatly improved in the next two decades. There tends to be a focus on bridges and roads because that's what most people use, but rail accessibility will become more and more important in the future.

Saturday Soliloquy
The pessimist in me always begins to worry when people write good things about the teams I support. So, when I read Gordon Edes' Yahoo! Sports column earlier today, I immediately threw some salt over my shoulder, made a blood sacrifice and purchased gypsy tears to guard against the evil eye. It's nice to get some recognition and he did hit some of the right notes, pointing out the seeming flaws in the Tigers' system and why they shouldn't necessarily be in first. But then he turns around and jinxes them by also pointing out what they're doing well. It's just not right.
I've mentioned it many times before but Detroit has so little going for it that the last thing we Michiganders need is to get our hearts broken once again. We could laugh about the Lions. But the Pistons? The Red Wings? If the Tigers go into the All-Star break in first place and then slowly bleed it away over the remainder of the season, it's going to be killer.
How killer, you ask? Well, considering that Tigers fans are already jumping off buildings near the stadium despite the team being hot, it ain't going to be pretty when the collapse comes along. However, if there is one thing we do well, it's that we die hard. Did you happen to notice that line in the story about how the person fell three stories and was still texting? Yeah, that's how we roll. Unfortunately, there's still no coming back being frozen solid at the bottom of an elevator shaft, though.

Haha.. I honestly didn't believe my eyes when I noticed Detroit up 4 games. Tigers must have your pessimism to keep 'em strong.
When we seeing the Al sporting Card gear photos though eh? A bet is a bet. Did Allen take it like a man? Lol..

A Polish man endured a three-hour operation to remove a screwdriver that was lodged about two inches into his head.
The 25-year-old man was working in his garden in Bialystok late last week when he slipped and jammed the Phillips head screwdriver into his skull, according to The Associated Press.
Upon regaining consciousness, he only felt pain his hand before realizing he had a much bigger problem.
"Next thing I remember it was my hand hurting and some weird thing near my eyes," the man, who didn't give his name, told Caters News.
He walked to his car, looked in the mirror and discovered the screwdriver lodged above his right eye, the New York Daily News reported.
But not even that sparked too much alarm.
Doctors told Poland's TVN24 the man smoked a cigarette to calm his nerves before asking a neighbor to drive him to the hospital.

The site was thus developed and finally launched for public viewing on September 2013 while officially launching on November 2013. The site is still on its infancy stage but we are looking forward to creating a nice community for people who like strategy games of all kinds. This not only extends to digital games but also board games, card games and miniature games.

Social Carpooling Transport NetworkingDec 2011 - Aug 2013 (1 year)
The idea of InteraRete was born right here, by the knowledge that in the time we live in, get together, pool their resources and needs, combined, make the team, it is even more than an obvious advantage, a real need to survive and gain access to a whole new level of life, a new scheme: Life 2.0 . Each of us has something to share, to \"create a network\": resources, skill, ability, property, information or even simple habits. Whenever we manage to overcome the mistrust, typical of the individualistic society in which we were born and raised, we find that they share with returns much more than you is shared, in various forms, in an optical win-win that everyone has experienced some time in life. This attitude is not just beautiful, good, just, sustainable, eco-friendly, it is necessary , essential and \"smart\" ; is the new paradigm in which this period of history calls us, not to reduce us to quickly and all\'ininfluenza margins, as individuals, as communities, as a culture.

For this month's Stick Science, IL decided to hit the streets (and by streets, we mean LacrosseForums.com) for some local talent. Check out the intricate dye job Charlax72 from Concord, Mass., busted out a while back.
Charlax72 claims that if you give a stick doctor some cash, the end result is pretty stellar. A buddy brokered the deal between a kid looking for a sweet dye job, twenty bucks later a Stick Science-worthy head was born.
Great dyes sometimes is all about improvising. Turning lemons into delicious lemonade. The initial plan for the stick was a kelly green to bright yellow fade, but when the head was pulled out of the initial black dye bucket the color under the tape was pink. Charlax solved the problem by engineering a nice raspberry tangerine fade.
For more custom dyes, check out the Stick Doctor's Lounge on LacrosseForums.com.

Easy Street Commodities, a London-based provider of outsourced risk and hedging services to a wide range of oil and commodities trading firms, has upgraded its AspectCTRM cloud-based trade and risk management solution to support a large and growing client base.
Having installed the Lite Edition of AspectCTRM during the first half of 2012, Easy Street has now moved to the more powerful Standard Edition of Aspect's software-as-a-Service (SaaS) solution. The implementation includes full front office to back-office functionality and will in time be integrated with the firm's ledger system.
Aspect was chosen for its proven track record in the oil business, its ability to provide native Russian language support and the presence of a technical and support center in Russia, local to Easy Street's own regional office in the country.
Easy Street chief executive, Konstantin Babourine, said the upgrade of the Aspect solution suite was an important step for his company. "Tracking paper-based trading positions and managing risk can be very challenging in what is an operationally intense and geographically diverse environment. Aspect's solution allows us to achieve this remotely and in real time which is a big win for us."
Part of Easy Street's business is with companies using railcars for distribution and this area is a particular strength of Aspect's solution according to the company's CTRM sales director for EMEA Yagnesh Savania. "We work with a number of companies involved in the railcar distribution of oil products and believe we are one of the most experienced in the sector. This latest deal with Easy Street reinforces that ability and will open up further opportunities, particularly in Russia."
Built on the (SaaS) architecture, all of Aspect's applications are delivered in the Cloud. Their inherent scalability and the speed with which they can be deployed contrasts dramatically with traditional ETRM/CTRM software systems which typically take a year or more to implement and which fail to effectively scale downwards to support smaller trading operations. Over the past 12 months, Aspect has invested heavily in its logistics and operations functionality, adding to its robust front end trade and risk capabilities.
About Aspect Enterprise Solutions
Aspect Enterprise Solutions www.aspectenterprise.com is a leading global provider of Web-based, multi-commodity trading, risk management and data analysis applications with almost 500 customers and thousands of users in 90 countries. The Aspect family is the only integrated, all-in-one platform delivered as Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) in the Cloud, which enables rapid deployment, controlled costs and immediate ROI.
Applications include AspectCTRM®, a full-featured commodity trading and risk management enterprise suite for front, middle and back office. It's available in three editions: Lite, Standard and Enterprise, seamlessly expanding in functionality according to the needs and budgets of clients. AspectDSC is the decision support center for traders offering oil, metals and agricultural market news, prices, futures and analytical tools on desktops and mobile devices including Apple® iPhone® and iPad®, and BlackBerry. AspectPM is the Price Manager solution which provides consolidation and support for the global oil price forecasting process and forward curve management.

In addition to all the benefits, IoT is also bringing new kind of customer experience challenges - cars that unlock themselves, thermostats turning houses into saunas and baby video monitors broadcasting over the internet. This list can only increase because while IoT services should be intuitive and simple to use, the delivery ecosystem is a myriad of potential problems as IoT explodes complexity. So finding a performance issue is like finding the proverbial needle in the haystack.

This promise is based on the ubiquitous deployment of smart, connected devices that link everything from industrial control systems to automobiles to refrigerators.

Data is the fuel that drives the machine learning algorithmic engines and ultimately provides the business value.

This beautiful region of Costa Blanca has long been favoured for its stunning beaches and exuberant nightlife. Dig a little deeper and you'll soon discover its traditional Spanish roots too, permeating out through the narrow lanes of Alicante and its neighbouring towns.
Discover the lesser-known areas boasting an authentic Spanish feel. You won't find any high-rise buildings in Javea, instead expect to see ancient narrow streets and traditional whitewashed houses. And you're just as likely to dine on Spanish tapas and paella as English favourites like fish and chips. While Denia boasts a cosmopolitan port, large marina and palm-fringed main street dotted with cafes and designers shops. Beyond the beaches, there are fascinating cities to be explored. Take in the spectacular views from Santa Barbara Castle in Alicante or explore the rice fields and orange groves that surround Valencia.
Alicante is a small Spanish city with lots to offer, from golden sandy beaches to an array of dining and nightlife options and unique monuments, museums and parks. Visit the Santa Barbara castle, with its great views across the city, or the famous promenade La Explanada de Espana. Shop until you drop at the Panoramis Complex and explore the narrow lanes of El Barrio, which are filled with a variety of bars. Head to Esplanada, where you can party until late.
You'll either love or hate Benidorm's bold personality. It combines vibrant bars, restaurants and clubs with a charming old town area and the magnificent mountainous backdrop of Sierra Hilda. Benidorm is a very popular tourist hotspot, located on the Costa Blanca. Its dominant skyline is sometimes called the 'Manhattan of Spain', due to the multitude of high-rise tower blocks. This well-known resort represents great value for money and appeals to a wide range of people.
La Manga is a coastal resort situated next to the Mar Menor, Europe's largest saltwater lake. Located on the southernmost tip of the Costa Blanca, it offers an abundance of golf courses including the famous La Manga Golf Course. Costa Callide is renowned for its hot summer weather and mild winter climate, making it an appealing choice for year-round breaks. A great place for families, children will love the calm lagoon with its shallow waters and wide range of water sports.
Valencia is the third largest city in Spain and the true home of Paella, where the dish originated. It's the ideal city break location, where you can enjoy culture, good shops, great restaurants, nightlife and beaches. Shop in the famous El Corte Ingles department store, or browse the shops of La Calle Colon, where you'll find well-known brands like Mango and Zara. Stroll around La Plaza de Alfonso el Magnánimo and stop at the official Valencia Club de Fútbol shop to pick up VCF souvenirs.
These smaller, family-friendly resorts boast plenty of bars, restaurants and shops. Denia is situated north of Java and has an authentic Spanish feel. Its Blue Flag beaches are great for water sports, while the brightly coloured restaurants and bars give you plenty of choice. Javea is a gem of a town, situated south of Denia. Its rugged coastline is indented with secluded coves and sandy beaches. And the charming Old Town exudes culture with its Gothic church, ancient narrow streets and whitewashed houses.

Nineteen miners in Poland were rescued from a mine after being trapped underground by a small earthquake. NBCNews.com's Dara Brown reports.
POLKOWICE, Poland -- Nineteen miners were pulled alive and well from a copper mine in southern Poland on Wednesday after a small earthquake trapped them almost 2,000 feet below the surface late Tuesday.
It took seven hours to tunnel through collapsed rock to reach the miners, who were working at the Rudna copper mine in southern Poland when a small tremor trapped them there at 10:09 p.m. local time (5:09 p.m. ET) on Tuesday.
Agencja Gazeta / Reuters
Families react to the news Wednesday that 19 miners were rescued after a small earthquake trapped them some 2,000 feet below the surface at the Rudna copper mine in southern Poland.
Two were treated for minor injuries, while the others, shaken up and covered with grime after a grueling night, were on their way home.
Families of the miners, who gathered near the site, cheered when the mine's operator, KGHM, announced that all 19 were alive and were slowly being taken out through a hole dug by the rescuers.
"This was the biggest accident in KGHM history," chief executive Herbert Wirth told Reuters. "Never in our history has it happened that 19 miners were trapped with no contact."
The Rudna mine is about 250 miles southwest of the Polish capital, Warsaw.
Kacper Pempel / Reuters, file
KGHM Polkowice-Sieroszowice copper ore mine is seen in Polkowice in this July 29, 2011, file photo. Nineteen miners were trapped there Tuesday night after an earthquake caused a collapse. All were saved.
After the quake on Tuesday, workers on the surface lost contact for several hours with the trapped miners because communication lines into the shafts had been severed.
The mine is in the Silesia region, near Poland's borders with Germany and the Czech Republic. It has been in operation since 1974. State-controlled KGHM is Europe's second-biggest copper producer.
Poland has large numbers of mines, mostly in the heavily industrialized Silesia region. In 2006, a gas explosion at a coal mine in the region killed 23 miners.

Cheats and Walkthroughs
After much rumor mongering, the latest World of Warcraft expansion pack is finally official. Titled Cataclysm, Blizzard is promising some pretty major changes to the World of Warcraft landscape. The once-defeated dragon Deathwing has risen from the ashes and wrecked destruction upon the world, fundamentally changing the environment gamers have come to known and love permanently.
Brian Leahy broke the news earlier today when it was announced at BlizzCon 2009, but Blizzard's press release has some more details on the new features in Cataclysm:
- Two New Playable Races: Adventure as the cursed worgen with the Alliance or the resourceful goblins with the Horde.
- Increased Level Cap: Advance to level 85 and earn new abilities, tap into new talents, and progress through the path system, a new way for players to customize characters.
- Classic Zones Remade: Quest to level 60 as you never have before. Familiar zones across the original continents of Kalimdor and the Eastern Kingdoms have been reforged by the cataclysm and updated with new quests and content.
- Flying Mounts in Azeroth: Explore Kalimdor and the Eastern Kingdoms from a whole new perspective.
- Guild Advancement: Progress as a guild to earn guild levels and guild achievements.
- New High-Level Content: Explore newly opened parts of the world, including Uldum, Grim Batol, and the great sunken city of Vashj'ir beneath the sea, and enjoy even more high-level raid content than in previous expansions.
- New PvP Zone & Rated Battlegrounds: Take on PvP objectives and daily quests on Tol Barad Island, a new Wintergrasp-like zone, and wage war in all-new rated Battlegrounds.
- Archaeology: Master a new secondary profession to unearth valuable artifacts and earn unique rewards.
- New Race and Class Combinations: Explore Azeroth as a gnome priest, blood elf warrior, or one of the other never-before-available race and class combinations.
What features are you most excited about?

My DD is 6 days old, and I've been BF her exclusively since birth. We regularly wake her up to nurse her, but she's so sleepy at every feeding. We try to wake her up, and that sometimes works for a few suckles more, but other times, she goes back to sleep and there's no way to wake her up. We have tried taking off her clothes, changing diapers, massaging her back/feet/arms/legs, tapping her cheeks, burping (in between, for 5-10 minutes but mostly unsuccessful). At the end of feeding, she half finishes one breast, while the other one is painfully engorged. A feeding session lasts more than an hour because we spend more than 2/3 of the time waking her up.
What do I do? I'm worried that my milk production will decrease and that the baby won't get the hind milk. Should I start pumping to help relieve the engorgement? I'm worried that if I do that, I'll overstimulate my milk production. Thanks for any advice!

By Mark Greenberg, Acting Assistant Secretary, Administration for Children and Families, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services
This week, the United States Interagency Council on Homelessness releases Family Connection: Building Systems to End Family Homelessness, which outlines a multi-pronged approach to ending family homelessness. It focuses on four key areas of action: developing coordinated entry systems, ensuring that housing intervention strategies are tailored to needs of individual families, strengthening linkages to local mainstream support systems, and building the research base and further developing evidenced-based practices.
I co-chair the Interagency Workgroup on Ending Family Homelessness, along with Mark Johnston from HUD and Laura Zeilinger from the Interagency Council. We are encouraged by the collaborative approach that multiple agencies across the federal government took in developing this framework. We look forward to an ongoing dialogue with federal partners, states, providers and advocates to reach our goal of ending family homelessness by 2020.
At the Administration for Children and Families (ACF), we recognize the importance of a collaborative, strategic approach to ending family homelessness. We understand that many families experiencing homelessness are very similar to other very low-income families, and that strategies to help families connect with stable employment and affordable housing are crucial to efforts to help them avoid or exit homelessness. We also recognize that domestic violence is a major contributor to homelessness among families, and that closer coordination between domestic violence programs and other homelessness service providers is essential to ensure that needs of parents and children that have experienced domestic violence are addressed. We understand that more successful transitions for young people leaving foster care can reduce both youth and family homelessness. And, we appreciate both that the experience of homelessness can seriously disrupt participation in early childhood programs, and that connections to child care, Head Start, and other early childhood service programs can reduce the risk of homelessness.
At ACF, we've encouraged agencies that administer the federal Temporary Assistance to Needy Families (TANF) grants to play a role in rapid rehousing efforts, both with rental assistance and employment services. In February 2013 ACF released an Information Memorandum detailing the ways TANF could help support efforts to reduce family homelessness.
And, ACF has strongly encouraged Early Childhood Development programs to do more to identify and serve homeless children. By supporting children's learning and development in safe, stable and nurturing environments, quality early childhood programs can help to buffer the stress, challenges and risks associated with homelessness. In January 2013 ACF sent Head Start programs and state child care administrators a letter and resources detailing possible strategies for better serving homeless children.
We'll be taking additional actions in the coming months, along with other federal partners, and in coordination with local efforts. We welcome your guidance and suggestions for other actions we can take in support of the national goal of ending family homelessness by 2020.
This blog was originally published by United States Interagency Council on Homelessness.
Mark Greenberg is the Acting Assistant Secretary for the Administration for Children and Families under the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. Mr. Greenberg serves as Principal Deputy Assistant Secretary and as Acting Commissioner for the Administration on Children, Youth and Families.

Nietzsche Was Right
I don't want to alarm anybody or prey on your fears but you should all know that god is dead and the devil has won. "But Allen," you're probably asking right now, "How is this possible?" Well, it's really quite simple. Let me refer you to the classic documentary in which Doctors Venkman and Spengler expertly deal with all manner of paranormal aberrations. Now, as anyone who has seen the film well knows, the only way to avoid the end of the world is to make sure that the "Keymaster" and the "Gatekeeper" do not get together. If they do, well, it's over.
So, you can only imagine how my heart sank the other day when I read that the Keymaster and Gatekeeper are on a collision course and their unholy union will be consummated on 20 November 2010. Seriously, we are knowingly allowing the Yankees and Notre Dame to combine their evil powers together? I don't want to go to far over the edge here but you should know that it will form the most pure nexus of evil ever known in the history of the planet.
At least by then we may have bigger worries. That's right folks, at that point we may have insurance coverage for each and every American. And as bad as Zuul may have been, there's nothing worse than universal health care. Don't believe me? Just watch this public service announcement from the always civic minded Stephen Colbert:

Happy Saturday y'all!

The Yankees' convergence with Notre Dame will be like a solar eclipse. Be afraid. Be very afraid.
The "finger" at the start of the video was a nice touch! lol! And really – I take Notre Dame coming to Yankees stadium to be a sign – it could cleanse out all the "evil" and make the Yankees a "washed up" team! As we all know in Boston – God is a Red Sox Fan!🙂

A friend of mine gave me her old electric breast pump- a medela pump in style. I'm not sure how to get started in two respects...
1) Would it be satisfactory to simply sterilize everything for my own use or is it better and safer for me to purchase my own parts?
2) I've been breastfeeding for six weeks. I have a pretty active let down and quick flow (I usually lean back during feeding so my baby doesn't choke), but a much more ample supply in my right breast- the side my son favors. Exactly how, when and on what side(s) should I begin pumping?
I'm a stay at home mom, so I'm really pumping just to give my husband the opportunity to feed our son and allow me to leave the house for a few hours without worrying the baby will get hungry and have nothing to eat. As such, he'll probably only be offered the bottle a few times a week.

With all the discussion about gun violence in the news I decided to compare number of gun homicides to number of guns. The results are below
Of note I found it fascinating that number of guns and gun homicides seem to have no positive correlation. In fact, most of the countries with the healthiest gun cultures have more guns, not less.
