Bali Scholarship Opportunity
Tranby is delighted to announce an amazing scholarship opportunity for 4 of our current students. The successful applicants will spend one week in Ubud, Bali where they will volunteer at the Bali Hati School. The work will primarily involve teaching young students, but may also extend to providing the organisation administrative assistance. Students will also be given the opportunity to engage in cultural activities with their fellow scholarship recipients. This scholarship is a unique opportunity for students to experience community development and education organisations operating in other countries. Similar to Australia, vulnerable people and minority group members in Indonesia face numerous barriers in relation to accessing education and social support. The internship will allow students to actively engage with and evaluate an organisation working to eradicate these barriers. It is intended that the insights gained by students who participate in this program will be taken back and utilised in their own workplace and communities in Australia. Students who participate in this program will also return with an increased understanding of Indonesian culture.
Closing the Gap
On Monday 13th February As a part of Closing the Gap the PM Malcom Turnbull acknowledged this important initiative by 'Acknowledging Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Professionals'. New staff member Dr. Sonya Pearce (Gooreng Gooreng) was honoured amongst 35 other Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders for her contributions to the professions. Sonya has been involved with education and training for over 30 years, and now brings this experience to Tranby, here Sonya will be working with students and staff to enhance the learning and engagement experience.

Three Steps Of Being A Good Soldier
Being in the military isn't a hard job! Most of your career is based on how you look at your job choice.
Every step you take and every place you go is a new journey and a new chapter in your life. Not many people can do the things we do and say they been to the places we've been.
It doesn't matter what job you have in the military, these 3 simple steps will help you out and help you stand out above your peers.
What makes a good soldier is three simple steps and that's being at the right place, at the right time, in the right uniform. As a private in the Army my main goal was to stay under the radar from my leader.
The way I did that was always being on time at least 15 minutes prior to when he wanted me there and I always double checked I was at the right place and that I was in the same uniform as my battle buddies.
You follow these three steps it will help you stay off their bad sad. To be honest some leaders don't have a good side but you follow these three steps and it will save you some trouble.
Being At The Right Place
So being at the right place is a big thing because if you aren't at the right place then you sure aren't going to be on time. I've tried going to the place that I thought was the right location but I was off by a mile or two.
I got down and walked all around thinking I was at the right place because everyone was wearing the same uniform as me.
Don't ever assume, know that you are at the right place by calling someone or following someone that is familiar with the place.
When I figured I was lost I called a battle buddy but it was already to late because they called my name out in formation and I wasn't there. So automatically I was in trouble.
I did some extra cleaning and a lot of push- ups but I learned my lesson. I learned to call or inform my leader right away if I don't know something.
Being On Time
Being on time is one of the biggest responsibilities in the military. You don't ever want to be late to any formations or meetings.
The rule you have to understand is that if you are told a certain time that you are there 15 minutes prior to that. Your leaders want you there and formed up before they get there.
By showing that you can be on time especially as a private in the military shows your leaders that you can be accountable and trusted to do tasks.
For me the hardest part of being in the military is waking up very early in the morning to do Physical Training (PT). This part of the day is when you see the soldiers coming late because no one wants to wake up.
The way I get myself up every morning is setting at least 3-4 alarm clocks so it keeps going off and it eventually annoys me. Do what you have to do to get up!
You don't ever want to be late because then you get extra tasks and sometimes that requires you to work a little later and then it takes away family time or any personal time.
Being In The Right Uniform
Being in the right uniform benefits you because if your not then you stick out like a sore thumb and you just steal the show. That will show your leader that you don't know how to pay attention or ask questions if your unsure.
Leaders dislike it when soldiers don't ask questions especially if they are lost. No question is a dumb question if it pertains to the topic being talked about.
Another big thing about your uniform is when they put out the uniform to be worn that you have everything that goes with it.
For example if they put out to wear the Army Combat Uniform your have all your patches and that they are in the right places and you have your boot, patrol cap, tan shirt and belt to go along with it.
I followed all these simple rules and it got me to be promoted a lot more quick then I expected. Follow these 3 steps and you will start your day off right.

One Mistake That's Killing Your Sales Recruiting Efforts
By: Steve Loftness
Recruiting sales personnel is a never-ending HR and Sales task. SHRM.org studies show a shortage of skilled workers to be a continual hot trend. This is compounded with a retiring Baby Boomer generation and global talent competition. You can't afford to miss a single candidate if you want to staff 'A' players.
The mistake? Ineffective job postings that turn away 'A' player candidates.
In this post, I present some faults with the majority of job profiles. Then, I give some suggestions on how to fix this. The downloadable 'A' Player Posting Template is a better sales vacancy posting to use.
Most Job Postings Are Unimpressive
Now, I don't feign to know the legalities of job posting language. Before you use the 'A' Player Posting Template, check it with your legal department. Maybe legal is why the majority of job postings are so unimpressive. Take the 25 companies where top Millennials most want to work. A quick scan of their posted job vacancies shows dry, text-heavy job postings. Most of these postings don't sell the job vacancy to candidates. They do a lot to screen 'A' candidates out – even before they get to the requirements section at the bottom. If the job posting is so dry and uninteresting, the role may be also. Or the sales tools available in the role may be as unimpressive.
Two Main Issues With Most Sales Job Postings:
1. Text Heavy – too much text and bullets. Not enough white space. Many sentences are very lengthy – filled with jargon and important-sounding words. Very tiring to read through the whole posting. Here's an example:
2. Heavy Qualifications/Requirements– The posting is geared for a candidate that doesn't exist. In fact, every sales posting I looked at required multiple years of sales experience. There are gems of candidates that are not currently in sales. Don't exclude them right off the bat. Instead, list preferred qualifications with verbiage that allows non-sales experience. Notate that a final selection will be based on interviews and a job tryout. Most postings seem to be written for industry insiders. This is not a good idea, as my colleague Dan Perry wrote a few days back. Check out this typical example of too many requirements:
Of the 25 companies I scanned, only Google did a decent job, both on their site and LinkedIn. Google embeds rich media and links to more detail right in the job posting. As well, Google can recommend a job based on linking to your Google+ account. To be fair, Microsoft's careers site allows you to link your LinkedIn profile – they give you recommended roles based on your profile. However, their postings themselves were of the old style.
Treat Candidates Like Buyers
B2B buyers are nearly 2/3 through their buying process before engaging a company. Top candidates aren't any different in their job "buying" process – especially with such readily available company research. So, make the posting more enticing since it's often the first look at the job. Tell candidates what they are looking for. For Sales candidates, we already know the top criteria 'A' candidates look for.
The posting should cover these areas at a minimum:
In addition, top candidates usually want to know other things like:
Too Many Candidates?
A recruiter's concern may be too many applicants to wade through – now that the postings are so candidate friendly. One technique to help screen out applicants is to describe the hiring process. And for top B2B sales positions, this should model the TopGrading for Sales method. This includes intense career histories, deep reference checks and a job tryout. Putting this into the posting will set a challenge – that A" players will naturally accept.
Next Steps
Based on the majority of sales job postings, you could gain an advantage with this method.
Please comment with suggestions on the 'A' Player Posting Template.

Difficulty attracting investors means renovations to the Sheraton Four Points Hotel have been scaled back and will take longer than first planned.
TUSCALOOSA | Difficulty attracting investors means renovations to the Sheraton Four Points Hotel have been scaled back and will take longer than first planned.
University of Alabama trustees approved a new deal with the hotel's owner Wednesday that requires $1.5 million in renovations to the hotel within 24 months. A previous plan to create a $5 million renovation account by selling 100 shares in the hotel's ownership to investors has been scrapped.
'I was planning in one fell swoop to renovate the whole hotel, but under the new arrangement, we'll do it, just over several years,' said Cory Jackson Jr., president of Birmingham-based Jackson Hospitality, one of the three companies operating the hotel.
The scaled back plans also means renovations to the hotel's restaurant, Champ's Sports Grille, will not be as substantial and will not include a separate, outside entrance, Jackson said.
Built in 1986, the hotel on Paul W. Bryant Drive has 150 rooms and 8,300 square feet of meeting space. The university owns the land, but leases it to the three businesses. Jackson's company manages the hotel.
The new arrangement is an amendment to the existing lease, and scraps the deal made between UA and the three companies, collectively called Capstone Ltd., last summer.
In July, trustees approved a new lease for the hotel after the university's failed attempt to buy it. University officials stressed the need to renovate the 21-year-old building and recommended that the firm put $5 million in a savings account to kick off a major overhaul. That lump sum and an annual payment of 4 percent of gross revenues to the savings account for renovations were stipulated in the new lease, which had not been executed.
The existing 30-year lease expires in 2015, although it provided for two 10-year extensions. The parties agreed in July to extend the expiration date to 2056 to help market the new ownership structure.
Under that structure, Capstone Ltd. planned to sell 100 shares in the hotel for $187,500 each. Besides minority ownership and presumably dividend payments, investors would get a room and parking space on Fridays before and Saturday nights after Crimson Tide football games.
The plan was seen as an innovative way to attract certain investors to pay for the renovations, but market conditions made selling the shares difficult, according to documents given to UA trustees.
'We pursued that action and did not meet with success, but I don't want to speculate on that,' Jackson said after the meeting with the board of trustees' executive committee, which acts on behalf of the full board.
Existing lease amended
The committee abandoned the new lease and opted to simply amend the existing lease. The amendment keeps the current lease's expiration date at 2035, at which point the hotel will transfer to the university.
'It appears to be a much better arrangement for the university,' said Joe Espy, chair of the board of trustees.
The amended lease also requires $1.5 million in renovations within two years and stipulates 4 percent of annual revenues be put toward upgrades.
'You'll see continued improvement of the hotel every year,' Jackson said.
Half of the hotel rooms will be renovated this year and the others after the 2008 football season. 'They are going to be gorgeous,' Jackson said.
The ballrooms will be redone, and the restaurant will still be upgraded, offering a more upscale menu than the sports-themed restaurant in place now, he said. Also, a coffee shop will be added to the main hallway and all corridors will be redone.
As in the July agreement, the amended lease drops the requirement the hotel be affiliated with a franchise, something originally added to ensure quality standards. Instead, the lease requires Jackson to operate a 'first class' hotel rated 'triple diamond' or greater by AAA.
Jackson said the hotel will drop its affiliation with Sheraton Hotels & Resorts on Aug. 1, and will become Hotel Capstone.
The amended lease will also require Capstone Hotel, the new name of Capstone Ltd., to submit financial records to UA for inspection, and the rent paid to UA will change from a variable payment based on profit to a guaranteed payment.
'While rent was paid last year, there have been years, including this year, when rent payments are not paid due to unavailable cash flows,' said Lynda Gilbert, UA vice president for finance in a letter outlining the deal to trustees.

In addition to involvement in local and national charities, Prior's Field has a track record of outreach overseas.
In recent years girls have supported, and visited, projects in Ghana and Peru. The project at the Rainbow Centre in Peru involved building new rooms for a school for disabled, disowned and abused children. The school community supports this work with a variety of fundraising events, including a whole school ten mile walk involving staff, girls and a few pet dogs!
Other opportunities for service in the community are provided by the Duke of Edinburgh's Award Scheme.
There are currently 38 students taking Bronze, 20 Silver and 8 Gold. In 2009, Expeditions were in the local area, Snowdonia and Norway.
Prior's Field is also involved in World Challenge, with a group which visited Costa Rica in Summer 2010.
Over the years the school has worked with a school in Nepal and current staff and pupils are now planning future outreach projects with schools in other parts of the world.

Crushing the Serpent's Head: The Meaning of Genesis 3:15
In Genesis 3:15, God announces that the serpent's head will be crushed by the seed of woman. What is the meaning of this intriguing prophecy in the book of Genesis?
In Genesis 3:15, God announces that the serpent's head will be crushed by the seed of woman. What is the meaning of this intriguing prophecy in the book of Genesis?
Jesus offers a great invitation to take his yoke upon you ... for his yoke is easy and his burden is light. Christianity is best for humankind because it fits us well. If you have burdens, come see what Christ has to offer.
May a Christian woman EVER teach a man ... even in a private setting? This is a question that has bothered some. Wayne Jackson addresses this topic on ChristianCourier.com.
Unlike some other religions, the validity of Christian faith rests upon what we believe about the gospel of Christ. But what exactly must one know to become a child of God? Let's explore these thoughts in this brief article.
Bertrand Russell once claimed that Jesus, if he ever really existed, was obviously wrong about his second coming. Was the atheist correct?
Is the gospel still sufficient for church growth? Are modern gimmicks necessary to attract bigger crowds?
Will heaven be on earth as some have speculated? Or is their biblical evidence that heaven will be something apart from the physical planet on which we live.
In the parables of the hidden treasure and the pearl of great price, Jesus emphasized the great value of his kingdom.
Is the doctrine of eternal punishment in hell consistent with the idea of a good and loving God?
Can man know that God exists? Is humanity the result of divine creation, or merely the consequence of impersonal evolutionary forces?

Don Moen/Leann Albrecht - Psalm 23
Does the world really need another 23rd Psalm song? Well, yes, I guess so, since this one is beautiful. Written by King David with a little bit of help from Steve Merkel. Leann Albrecht sings harmony along with Don Moen's lead vocal. I've always loved Leann; she has backed up many well-known artists, including Michael W.

City Pages Beer Festival Returns to Downtown Minneapolis Reviews & Ratings

Tired of being walked all over and ignored, Jamie decided that it was time to make something out of her life. She sold her company, signed a contract and was determined to live it up. Only problem, she was a bit of a recluse, painfully shy, kind of clumsy and didn't know the first thing about living it up.
Thankfully she has a very sexy, very determined editor to help her along the way. She was everything he could ever want, popular and in demand, but unfortunately for him the author that he needed to make a name for himself was also a little recluse who wasn't doing what he needed her to do. In order to get her to do what he wants he decides to help her in her little quest for a life and ends up with more than he bargained for.
In this steamy and sensual romance, A Reclusive Heart, narrated with syrupy, down-to-earth precision by Andie Sutton, the sexy, cocky, and self-described Mr. Wrong bachelor and editor Nick meets one of his new writers, Jamie, a timid woman too hard on herself who doesn't know how smart, beautiful, and talented she truly is.
Nick works with Jamie, seeing her as a prospect to further his own career, until both are soon surprised to realize that perhaps they both desire to work on each other's…additional passions. A titillating listen from the boardroom to the bedroom that will arouse the senses.

whats the temp out?
Check it out:
Secretary of State John Kerry argued Thursday that the science showing Earth's climate is warming because of human activity is as clear and settled as the science that shows gravity will force an apple to fall out of its tree and down to the ground.
"When an apple falls from a tree, it will drop toward the ground. We know that because of the basic laws of physics. Science tells us that gravity exists, and no one disputes that," Kerry said in a climate speech before the Atlantic Council in Washington.

Day by day, posturing politicians are talking themselves into a catastrophe in the Middle East which could have horrific repercussions for every one of us.
In Israel, defence minister Ehud Barak orders provocative military exercises and says he won't hesitate to launch a strike against Iran's nuclear programme. There is even talk he may use nuclear weapons.
In Iran, President Ahmadinejad, who has threatened to 'wipe Israel off the map', demonstrates his own might by testing missiles and swearing to 'set Tel Aviv on fire' if Barak dares to strike.
A test-firing in an undisclosed location in the Iranian desert last week
Meanwhile U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice cranks up the rhetoric, saying that Washington takes 'very, very strongly' its obligations to help Israel.
Make no mistake: if this madness goes on, the Middle East - and the world beyond - could be hurled into a conflict that will make the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan look like mere skirmishes.
Does Barak really believe neighbouring Arab countries would stand by as Israeli jets flew in? Does he imagine Russia will do nothing if its nuclear technicians are killed in an attack on the Iranian plants?
As for Iran's own response, the possibilities are truly terrifying. American and Turkish military bases lie well within the range of its missiles. Shipping in the Strait of Hormuz, the world's most vital oil lifeline, is hugely vulnerable to attack.
In the words of Opec's secretary-general, a war involving Iran would spark an 'unlimited' increase in oil prices, plunging the economies of the developed world into deep recession.
No. Instead of urging Israel on, the U.S. should be straining every diplomatic muscle to avert a pre-emptive strike, while using every peaceful means in its power to persuade Ahmadinejad to abandon his nuclear ambitions.
The truth is a diplomatic settlement is well within reach - despite the failure of the EU3 contact group of Britain, France and Germany to bring it about.
In Iran itself, Ahmadinejad faces strong opposition, from both Shia and Sunni Muslims and a sophisticated middle-class sympathetic to the West. Why risk uniting the whole country behind him by launching an attack?
With America preparing for a new president, Israel may well believe it will get more support from an outgoing Republican than an incoming Democrat.
Does George Bush think backing an air strike will boost John McCain's chances against Barack Obama? If so, this will be his last and most contemptible act of vandalism against world peace.
Hope for homebuyers:
Help may at last be at hand for first-time homebuyers, whose hopes have been shattered by the credit crunch.
As the Mail has long urged, the Government is urgently drawing up plans to offer them stamp duty holidays, while cutting the tax for other homebuyers.
Opposition MPs may seek to present the concessions as a sign of weakness. They are nothing of the sort.
They are a humane, practical and long overdue reaction to changing economic circumstances. They can't come into force a moment too soon.
The troop's champion:
Front-line soldiers will be dismayed by reports that General Sir Richard Dannatt has been passed over for the top post of Chief of the Defence Staff.
As head of the Army, he has been their fearless champion, speaking out bluntly on the strains they face and the urgent need to improve their pay and conditions.
If, as some are suggesting, Des Browne is punishing him for standing up for his men, the Defence Secretary is unfit to remain in the Government.

Evernote pushed an update to its Android app yesterday, an update that brought a Material Design flavor with it. The update isn't necessarily an overhaul, by any stretch of the imagination, but it does bring added polish in areas like colors, typography and flatness, to give it that Material feel throughout. The Evernote designers focused on creating independent layers and subtle animations to give the impression of depth and a "sense of hierarchy."
The update also adds things like customizable quick notes, long presses to add or remove quick note options, a revamped navigation, simpler navigation drawer, and more. (more…)

Good quality and reasonable price
I like to change case color every once in a while but do not wish to spend a lot of money. This is a perfect solution. One of the things that I like about this is that it gives enough protection to the phone without adding too much thickness. I am not so sure it will survive from a fall but it will definitely protect from scratch and dent. I have bough 4 so far in different colors and love each one.

Fact Sheet: Helen's Garden
Presenter: Stephen Ryan, 16/10/2010
SERIES 21 Episode 34
Up until ten years ago, Helen and Rob Batty's garden was a bare paddock. They built the house and, as Helen had studied horticulture, she wanted to spend some time on planning and creating a garden that was a bit different.
They visited a few open gardens and Helen found she was drawn to the use of focal points in a garden design. They incorporated one towards the back of their garden that could be viewed from the verandah and the lounge-room. The focal point - a pottery hen made by Helen - is framed by an avenue of crab-apples with garden beds on either side.
Helen has used an eclectic mix of native and exotic plants, including:
- Acacia cultriformis (Knife-leaf Wattle) Helen grew this from seed. "I like the way it fits into the garden - its leaf contrast with other plants around it."
- Exochorda racemosa (Pearl Bush) Stephen says, "This is one of my all time favourite spring shrubs. You can see why it's called Pearl Bush with its lovely little white pearl buds."
- Espaliered plum trees (Santa Rosa and Satsuma) Helen says the plants were trained by Rob and provide lots of fruit without taking up much room
- Erythronium tuolumnense (Tuolumne Fawn Lily) This is one of the plants in Helen's favourite part of the garden - the alpine section
"Since I joined the Alpine Garden Society, it's opened up a whole new world of plants for me. They are lovely little plants that can be tricky to grow but are very rewarding."
Helen has several formally trimmed plants such as Box and Correa which provide structure and contrast in the garden. Stephen says, "The Westringia balls are superb. They've been beautifully clipped."
Helen agrees, "They have. That's my husband Rob's area of expertise. He just loves the pruning."
The westringias are growing in a raised garden bed - created from soil dumped from the building site. Many other natives are also thriving in the bed.
Stephen says, "I've loved being here in your garden today, Helen. Thank you so much for inviting me."
Helen and Rob's garden is part of the Open Garden Scheme for 2010. The garden is open on Saturday 30th and Sunday 31st October from 10am-4.30pm. Further information: Open Garden Scheme (External Site)

Product trajectories and impact are notoriously difficult to predict, but two recent Hadoop market moves – simultaneously aggressive and reconciliatory – may be an indication of a seismic shift at Cloudera toward more openness.
In September, Cloudera released a new product ("project" in open-source terminology) called Kudu, which provides updateable storage. This is a novelty in the straitlaced sequential, read-only world of Hadoop. Further, Cloudera has offered Kudu to the Apache Software Foundation for incubating as an Apache-sponsored open-source project. Kudu is not just another ingredient in the alphabet soup of the Hadoop ecosystem. It has the potential to be a game changer.
Then, more recently, Cloudera also turned over code for Impala, its popular interactive query engine, to the Apache Software Foundation.
To understand the significance of these events, let's first take a look at Kudu.
A research paper from Cloudera shares intricate details of Kudu, and if you don't have the time or patience – or the need – to dive into that depth, here is a good overview from Cloudera. Or just read on.
In a nutshell, Kudu is software that attempts to bring relational data management capabilities to Hadoop, managing its own storage and dispensing with HDFS altogether. This is a very loaded statement, so you may want to re-read and mull over it for a minute.

Kudu is intended to bridge the gap between high-throughput sequential-access storage systems such as HDFS and low-latency, random-access systems such as HBase or Cassandra. Kudu would reduce some of the complexity of lambda architectures – for example, eliminating (or at least reducing) the need to develop parallel data flow streams for large-scale analytics and in-place updates on the same data set. Kudu does not purport to offer a "one size fits all" solution, but it should fit many use cases that require relatively fast read and the ability to perform in-place updates: a "happy medium" that can simplify development without sacrificing performance.
A Deeper Dive
Conventional database developers will find Kudu a simplified (or perhaps simplistic) implementation of standard relational databases like Oracle or Microsoft SQL Server. A Kudu cluster will consist of many tables; each table will have columns with names and data types, and can be made nullable. Each table will also have a primary key – an ordered tuple, in database lingo – to enforce uniqueness among rows. The primary key will provide the sole index to the table – Kudu does not allow secondary keys or unique indexes. Not yet, anyway. Kudu also does not offer multi-row transactions. Multiple rows may be batched for execution for purposes of efficiency, but each row operation will remain a separate transaction. Data read also appears simplistic: Kudu offers a scan operation in which the user may add any number of predicates (where clauses), but only two types of predicates are allowed: comparisons between a column and a constant value, and composite primary key ranges. The select clause of the query – the projection of the tuple – can include any number of columns. In fact, with Kudu being a columnar database, Cloudera recommends specifying columns in the select clause to improve performance.
Kudu partitions tables horizontally into data sets called tablets, and tablets are subdivided into rowsets that may reside in memory or on disk, an architecture that seems aimed at improving performance. Kudu uses a master node for metadata, which will need to be replicated for fault tolerance, and tablet servers that process the data.
There are limitations on data concurrency/consistency. Kudu guarantees read-after-write consistency as long as both the write and read are from the same query client. It does not guarantee that, if another query also does a write and then read, it will see the effects of the first query. Cloudera does not consider this to be much of a concern – the company's experience indicates that internal data consistency (i.e., within the same client) is sufficient for most cases. This makes Kudu less attractive for applications in which multiple users are writing simultaneously, but Kudu does offer a way around, in the form of timestamps that may be propagated across clients (albeit with a performance penalty).
Kudu offers application programming interfaces (API) in Java and C++, with "experimental support" for Python.
I did not find any information on whether Kudu integrates with Sentry (for security) and Yarn (for resource management), but time will tell. If Kudu is to have a future, however, it needs to fully integrate with these components.
If your eyes haven't glazed over with all this technospeak, here comes the interesting part: Kudu is deeply integrated with Cloudera Impala, and in fact does not do any SQL parsing on its own. SQL queries to Kudu must pass through Impala. This is a strategic masterstroke: in one fell swoop, Cloudera has provided a huge impetus to Impala and an instant value proposition for Kudu. Kudu also integrates with MapReduce and Apache Spark.
Measurements taken by Cloudera indicate that Kudu performance is comparable to immutable storage such as Parquet. This is a start, but "comparable" isn't good enough. Kudu surely will need to improve performance – as measured by someone other than Cloudera – if it is to be adopted widely.
Updateable storage is one reason that Kudu is a potential game changer. The other reason, mentioned previously, is that Kudu dispenses with HDFS altogether, by managing its own storage directly on top of the operating system. In other words, Cloudera has a full-fledged alternative to the Hive/MapReduce/HDFS stack with Impala/Kudu, offering new capabilities, improved storage, improved performance, and a simplified architecture.
This is huge, and just another indication how the world of Hadoop continues to evolve not just incrementally, but also disruptively.
Cloudera also has quickly moved to defuse the charges that Kudu would lead to greater vendor lock-in – a blasphemy in the open-source world – by offering both Kudu and Impala to the Apache Software Foundation.
Kudu is an exciting development and one that I would urge you to look at closely, although it comes up short in some ways. If Cloudera is looking to capture the "analytical Hadoop" market – which seems to be the case – it will need to move rapidly to improve on some of the shortcomings and demonstrate to customers the usability and stability of Kudu.
When it comes to the product name, though, I am not too sure. Although both Impala and Kudu are a kind of deer – and the graphic for Kudu is remarkably similar to that for Impala – it seems that when threatened, the kudu often will run away rather than fight. Let's hope that this isn't an omen for Cloudera.

Sales of over one million units in just eight years and the universal acclaim his method has excited would indicate that there is a large body of people who want to know more about how and why his method works where so many others have failed. The book will give a brief history of Michel's fascinating life and summarise how he became interested in teaching foreign languages, before going on to look at the experience of learning a foreign language PDF in general and Michel's method of teaching in particular. It examines the barriers to language learning in both the UK and the US, Michel's focus on the role and quality of the teacher rather than the learner, and Michel's core belief that with the right teaching anyone can learn another language quickly and easily. The reader will be introduced to new trends in psychology and their relationship to the way Michel teaches foreign languages as well as examining conventional wisdoms. There follows a detailed analysis of Michel's programmes for foreign language teaching and the implications for ePub schools, colleges and universities if they wish to adopt his methodology and at the same time meet the requirements of the public examinations both in the UK and the US.
