2015 SEC Faculty Achievement Award Recipients Announced
BIRMINGHAM, Ala. -- The winners of the 2015 Southeastern Conference Faculty Achievement Awards have been announced by the league office. These annual awards honor one faculty member from each SEC university who has excelled in teaching, research and scholarship, including this year's recipient from the University of Kentucky -- Dr. Michael Bardo, Professor of Psychology.
Each award winner will become his or her university's nominee for the 2015 SEC Professor of the Year Award and will receive a $5,000 honorarium from the SEC. The SEC Professor of the Year, to be named later this month, receives an additional $15,000 honorarium and will be recognized at the SEC Awards Dinner in May and the SEC Symposium in September.
"The SEC Faculty Achievement Awards give us a unique opportunity to not only showcase the work of our outstanding faculty members, but to also support their future research and scholarship," said Nicholas Zeppos, Chancellor of Vanderbilt University and President of the Southeastern Conference. "These 14 men and women are some of the most accomplished and influential leaders in their disciplines, and I offer each of them my sincerest congratulations."
To be eligible for the SEC Faculty Achievement Award, a professor must be a teacher or scholar at an SEC university; have achieved the rank of full professor at an SEC university; have a record of extraordinary teaching; and a record of scholarship that is recognized nationally and/or internationally.
SEC Commissioner Mike Slive said, "This year's SEC Faculty Achievement Award recipients are to be commended for their unwavering dedication to higher education. The SEC is pleased to recognize 14 individuals who have made such a positive impact on our students."
The SEC Faculty Achievement Awards and the SEC Professor of the Year Award are both selected by SEC Provosts, and the program is administered by SECU, the academic initiative of the Southeastern Conference. SECU serves as the primary mechanism through which the collaborative academic endeavors and achievements of SEC students and faculty are promoted and advanced.
Below is a list of the 2015 SEC Faculty Achievement Award recipients.

The concept of "architecture" is well established in the native compilation world. This is a thing that Maven does not understand, at least "natively".

DocScanner is your multi-functional copying & archiving tool for all kinds of documents. Capable of much more than just basic scanning of documents, here are three things you can use your DocScanner for:
1 Declutter your desk
Got a desk covered with documents, business cards, receipts, and other types of clutter? Use DocScanner to declutter it. How? It's simple, as DocScanner can tell the difference between document types. In addition, it can auto-sort the documents to separate folders by their type. Just scan all the documents that clutter your beautiful desk! Now with digitized copies of your papers, you can trash the clutter if you want with no worries.
2 Make your scanned documents searchable
DocScanner creates PDF documents by pasting the scan result as an image to the document. To make the document text copyable and searchable, DocScanner comes with a handy OCR feature. Use the OCR to transform the PDF into plain text. Having the document as plain text makes it possible to copy & paste it to any iOS app, such as Gmail, Mailbox, or Notes. The extracted text is attached to the PDF as metadata, making the document searchable in any environment.
3 Share your documents in the cloud
DocScanner can upload scanned documents to Evernote, Dropbox, and Google Drive. By storing your scanned documents to a cloud storage service, it's easy to access them virtually from anywhere with an internet connection. If you want to share your documents, you can easily allow access to the cloud folder where your documents are located.
During the past 30 days, we published a series of blog posts and video tutorials on cloud storage services - Evernote, Dropbox, and Google Drive – and how to link them to the DocScanner app. In the mobile era, cloud storage has become the standard for storing files and transferring them between devices and users. We listed here five top reasons why you should use one.
1 Access your documents anywhere
The main advantage of keeping your documents in the cloud is that you can access them virtually anywhere with an internet connection. All cloud storage services have their own apps you can install on your mobile device. Most cloud storage services can also be used via browser, so accessing your files on a laptop or PC should be as fast and convenient as with your mobile device. Browser access can also be great for situations where you need to access your files using a device other than your own.
2 Share your documents easily
In addition to being able to access your documents anywhere, sharing is another important reason to use a cloud service. Usually, the person you decide to share a file or a folder with needs to be a user of that same cloud storage service. Whether it's lecture materials or work documents, sharing in the cloud is super easy & fast!
3 Keep your documents safe
Mobile devices can get broken or lost quite easily. Using a cloud storage as a depository for your files ensures they are safe should your device get broken or lost. When using cloud storage services with DocScanner, you can set DocScanner to auto-upload your documents to the cloud. This way you can keep all your DocScanner documents safe. DocScanner also supports iCloud. Upload your DocScanner documents to the iCloud, and make them available on all your iOS devices. The iCloud can also recover your documents when installing DocScanner on a new device, or when doing a re-install.
4 Get cloud storage space for free or at very low cost
Almost all cloud storage services operate on the freemium model, where you get a certain amount of space free of charge, and more when you pay. At the moment, premium subscription for Evernote gives you 1 GB of monthly uploads and costs only five dollars per month. Even if you decide to go for the free plan, you still get 60 MB of monthly uploads – still enough for dozens of documents. A 100 GB subscription to Dropbox costs $99 per year, or $8.25 per month, and basically gives you a second hard drive. If you don't need that much, you can still have 2 GB for free.
5 Accumulate a personal file archive in the cloud you can use in different occasions
Showing photos to your friends & relatives? Sharing lecture materials with other students at school? Storing receipts in the cloud for accounting? Why not to accumulate a personal archive in the cloud you can access anywhere, anytime? Use different cloud services for different purposes. Upload documents and receipts to Evernote, share photos on Dropbox, and collaborate on office documents on Google Drive.

Video Tutorial: How to Connect Google Drive with DocScanner & Set Document Auto-Upload
A Google cloud integration has existed in DocScanner ever since 2010. That's when the Google Docs was introduced to the app. Since then, Google Docs has evolved from an online office suite into Google Drive, a full-featured cloud file storage and synchronization service. Offering 5 GB of free online storage, and more if you pay, Google Drive is a considerable alternative as a cloud storage for your files.
Knowing this, we shot this video tutorial showing how to connect Google Drive with DocScanner. We also set DocScanner to auto-upload scanned documents to Google Drive. This way, you can upload all the documents you scan automatically to your selected folder on Google Drive, and make your life run smoother.
Did you download DocScanner for iOS last week? A lot of people did, as DocScanner was ranked as the #1 productivity app in dozens of countries. Great! Here's a short introductory to file hosting services you can extend your newly downloaded DocScanner with.
DocScanner saves all scanned documents to its own document organizer. In addition to that, DocScanner supports a range of file hosting and synchronization services. We know that there are many of such services out there, so we have selected the five most potent ones to be used with DocScanner – each of them with their own advantages.
The basic functionality of Evernote is built around notetaking. This makes Evernote perfect for adding comments and tags to your scanned documents. With Evernote, you can create shared notebooks to easily share documents with anyone. If needed, you can password protect a shared notebook to limit access to it. Check also this earlier blog post on Evernote: How to manage receipts effectively with DocScanner and Evernote.
A cloud based file hosting service at its purest, Dropbox is one of the simplest ways to upload your scanned documents online. The best thing about sending files with Dropbox is that the recipient doesn't need to have it installed on his device, as Dropbox can generate a shortened URL for downloading any file with any browser.
Google Drive
Google Drive is a highly relevant service because of its word processing application. DocScanner features an Optical Character Recognition (OCR), which can extract the text out of a scanned document to be processed with a word processor. Extract to Google Drive word processor to edit the text of the scanned document. The biggest advantage of this is that you can use the word processor to check and autocorrect the OCR output.
The iCloud can be a valuable feature if you are a person with more than one Apple device. A file synchronization and back-up service, iCloud syncs your DocScanner documents so that they are available on all your Apple devices running DocScanner.
- If you like to add comments and tags to your documents, Evernote is good for this.
- If you just need a simple file hosting service without much additional functionality, use Dropbox.
- If you need to edit the text in your scanned documents, use Google Drive and its word processor.
- For backing up and synchronizing your files between two or more Apple devices, iCloud is the best.
DocScanner S for Android has been released and is now available for download on Google Play. A bigger cousin of the classic DocScanner app, DocScanner S is specially designed for the Samsung Galaxy S series, one of the best Android smartphone series available. On the video, DocScanner S is demoed on a Samsung Galaxy S III.
DocScanner S shortens the path from scanning to archiving into one single step resulting in major productivity gains. The enhanced image processing algorithms of DocScanner S represent the latest development in the whole category of document scanner apps. Together with the high resolution cameras of the Samsung Galaxy S series, they ensure matchless scan quality. DocScanner S also sports many of the features introduced earlier in the DocScanner 6 iOS. These include realtime preview of scan quality, non-stop scanning with automatic post-processing, and one tap sending into file hosting services such as Google Drive, Dropbox, and Evernote.
Learning from our experiences with the DocScanner 6 iOS, DocScanner S is available as a separate application aside the classic DocScanner app. DocScanner S also retains the possibility to choose between auto and manual post-processing of the scanned document, thus maximizing user freedom.

Re: [Ayreton] Re: Asking the Question
- Kenwrec-- don't forget, the baron and baroness are representatives of the crown, and are therefore CHOSEN BY THE CROWN.

Greetings everyone,
I have heard the word Barony floating about pretty much since I

I think that having an Ayreton Barony is a fabulous idea, overall.
To alleviate the cons, to some degree at least, when taking the
steps forward to do this, I think we should consider implementing a
few things in the process of selection and election. (obviously this
will be if the choice to go Barony is made.)
Some ideas:
- Use and nomination process where each nominee must be seconded and
thirded(?) to be considered in the running.
- Independent election for each office
- Have a Baron and Baroness who are from different groups within

Chapter One
"Hallo old chaps, wait for me!" A young hare yelled as he charged down the passage. He was tall and lanky, with bigger than usual ears that flopped around when he moved. A group of other hares kept on without heed, driven on to the mess hall. Suddenly, the hare Lopper bumped right into Lord Oak. "My greatest apologies, sah, couldn't see where I was going sah, I, I," he stopped when he noticed the amusement that Lord Oak was trying to hide behind a coughing fit. "Humph, cough, cough, sorry Lopper, didn't see you there. I was on the way to the kitchens myself." "How'd you blinkin' know sah?" "Unless you ate half the larders last night, I've never known a hare who didn't want breakfast. In fact, the cook is making some of those tarts, those, umm…" "Blueberry sugar tarts! There mah blinking' favorite, sah! Well, see you around, sah!" he called as he ran off, already late. Oak chuckled and went directly to the kitchens. He was working on huge axe, with designs, carvings and smiths manship to impress any. He entered and dodged around all the hustle and bustle, and approached the cook, Portly. "Oh, hello sah, what do you want? Hey, don't let those loaves burn!" he called to an assistant. "Just send some bread and stew up to my chamber. I'm awfully busy this morning." "Yes sah, right away sah, I'll have that meal up to your room in a jiffy, wot, wot! Eh, Strawbrezze! Prepare a hazelnut stew for his lordship, add a loaf of bread and a beaker of pear, or was it strawberry that was his favorite?" "it was dandelion and burdock cordial, sah!"
Chapter Two
"Excuse me, chap, sorry miss, coming through!" Lopper called as he weaved his way to the mess. There wasn't much left, but he took what he could and sat down to eat. As he sat munching, he considered asking Lord Oak if he could do a patrol or something, get out of the boring barracks for once. When he had finished, he went to the forge room. He gulped, and knocked on the large, sturdy door. A loud, "Come in!" sounded. He went in. Oak was hammering at his forge, creating his axe. "Ah, hello Lopper, what brings you hear." "I was wondering sah, if I could go on a blooming' patrol, along one, don'tcha know? It's getting jolly boring here, wot!" Oak considered this. "Well," he said, "Which route would you like? Along the coast, through the woods, across the flatlands, or a patrol of the Redwall area?" "Oh corks! I'll take blooming Redwall sah! From what I've hear, its paradise!" "It is, Lopper, oh, and by the way, send my regards to my friend Greenfield. If you don't recognize him, ask around." "Um, how will I recognize him sah? I've never seen him!" Oak replied, "He's a warrior, carries a fine dirk, and usually wears green clothes. Should be easy." "Thank you sah! Can I start right now?" "Pack some food first. It's a long journey." Lopper sped off, running to the kitchens, grabbed some oat cakes and pear cordial, and sped away. After a few minutes, he stopped running. He remembered his business, and then set off at a slower, more leisurely pace. After awhile, he left the dune lands, and enter grassier areas. He was enjoying himself so much he didn't notice a squirrel looking at him from a tree. He stopped to lie in a daisy patch when a small pebble hit his paw. "I saw you blighter, watch where you chuck those bally things, wot!" Lopper called indignantly, looking for the attacker. The squirrel yelled back in a harsh, creaky voice, "Get off my land, you scamp! Or I'll send a good many more stones before I'm through!" Lopper considered this a moment then said, "I'm sorry sah, I didn't know it was your bally land. But let's sit and discuss terms, mister….." "Gronklon, no talking, jest get off!" "Alright, alright, ye fat nosed buffoon!" Lopper called as he skipped off. The mean squirrel shook with rage, vowing to get vengeance.
Chapter Three
Lopper walked on, the memory of Gronklon was quickly fading. He stopped to rest awhile and have some lunch at the border of the wood. He plotted his next course of action. Redwall was still two days away, so he decided to do some extra patrolling, just check the area outside of Mossflower. After a quick nap, he got up and began to check the outskirts of the woodlands.
The next day, he decided to go into Mossflower, because, after finding the road into it the night before, he could follow it and be in by evening. He struck out into the woodlands. That evening, Lopper reached the gates of Redwall. He stood awed, admiring the sandstone walls, the tall battlements, and then, he knocked on the gate. Little did he know, that it was the Fall Feast that night.
The cooks had made a splendid spread, pastries, jams, breads, cheeses, cakes, sauces, drinks, cordials, wines, ales, salads, nuts, and countless other delicacies. The Skipper of the otters was quickly patrolling, eager to get back to the feast. He heard the knock Lopper had made. He peeked over the walls. "Who goes there?" he called. "Oh, hallo sah, I'm Lopper, hare of the Long Patrol on a patrol, wot! I was just passing by and I wondered if I could have, er, a bite to eat!" Skipper chuckled. "Alright, one moment." He came down, unbolted the gate and let Lopper in. Lopper was so excited, he forgot his manners, but he composed himself. Abbot Birchen was sitting in his chair, enjoying the festivities. Skipper brought Lopper to him. "Abbot," he said, "we have a visitor. He's a hare from Salamandastron." "Lopper, at ye service, sah! I'm on a patrol round here, and I though I'd stop for a bite to eat, wot!" "Ah, are there any others with you? There's plenty, no need to be stingy my son. Sit down and scoff away!" "Thank you sah, most mmph scrunch,mmph, very tasty, mmph." he said as he sat down and began to eat. Taking a platter, took a huge slice of deeper'n ever turnip n' tater n' beetroot pie. "Pass the stew, mah lad, and a scone or two, wot!" he said to a passing otter with a trolley. "Alright, its fish stew, with a small dash of hotroot. Very tasty, but slightly spicy." "A little spice, eh, yum! Serve it up, wot! The soup was delicious, and afterwards, an immense slice of strawberry cake went down too, washed down with various ales and cordials. "Ah, that was a fine supper, I'm going to turn in now!" he staggered up to a guest room and plopped down in bed. After a minute, he fell asleep, full of good food.
Chapter Four
The next morning, Lopper got up, still a little heavy from last night's feast. He went out and came across the Abbot. "Ah, good morning' sah, still a little stuffed from last night, wot! Your cooks sure good, it's a wonder some of you aren't pudgy, wot!" "Yes, it is a wonder and thank you for complementing the cooks. Did you enjoy the cake, the big strawberry one?" "Yes, I did old chap, it was unmistakable, very nice. Did you have something to do with it, sah?" "Yes, my son that was my own recipe and it has been made every Fall feast, and the cook has made a smaller version for use all the time. It is very tasty, but rather fattening. Well, let's go to breakfast." This morning, it was oatmeal with fruit and honey, simple but delicious. There were also fruit tarts and cordials, and plain fruit and nuts. Lopper sat down and took a bowl, loaded it with oatmeal, fruit and honey, then dug in. It was warm and delicious, he had two bowls. Then some sort of small cake with an immense amount of berries in it. "Hmm, that was good. Say, anyone know who invented this stuff?" Lopper asked. "I did, I'm glad you enjoyed it." As Lopper turned, he saw the speaker, a tall, strong mouse in a green robe, and his eyes depicted he had seen many battles. "Say, old bean, are you that Greenfield fellow Lord Oak told me about?" "Yes, is Oak in good health? It has been many seasons since I saw him last." "Yes, indeed he is, his Lordship's making' a huge axe, with all his blooming' training put into it." "Glad to here that, has there been any action recently?" "If swatting flies and drilling counts, we've been through wars! But other than that, nothing, no reports of vermin for twenty seasons now. "Ouch, have any decided to head where the vermin are?" "Yes sah, but that's far north, and none of us hares like the frigid conditions, even less than no action." "I've learned that vermin will always be vermin, and can never stay quiet for so long, unless….." Greenfield stopped speaking, thinking hard. "Lopper, we need to get back to Salamandastron, tell Oak that there is going to be a war in the spring. I'll muster up Redwall's defenses, and if there are enough hares, send some to help." "Okay sah, but I don't see the jolly reason." "Twenty seasons, if a few, say three were spent gathering all into an army, then the other
seventeen to prepare his army, and time enough for them to have lots of little vermin, train them, and have them battle ready. Why Spring? It is mid-fall, they can't have such a huge army risk camping out in winter, and just think, what kind of a genius would it take to organize such a huge army and stay in control? No beast has ever done something like this, an army so big that he could completely surround Redwall with a few thousand troops, rotating every hour, and still have plenty more!"
Bluebell, pack a haversack for myself and Lopper, then tell the Abbot were leaving, immediately. Lopper, go to my room. Under the mat there is a key, take it and unlock a chest with silver engravings, bring everything in there. Do you have a weapon?" "None sah, but mah paws, which are pretty useful." "Not enough, go to the tapestry and bring me the sword there." Lopper went first to Greenfields room, and opened the chest. Inside was a green traveling cloak, a sword belt with a magnificent dirk in an ornamental sheath. Then he went to the tapestry. The tapestry depicted a mouse in armor, leaning on a magnificent sword. The sword Greenfield had wanted was hung on two hooks under it. He picked it up, instantly knowing this was a worthy weapon. It was light and had terrific balance, and was obviously very sturdy. He swung at a candlestick, neatly slicing it off. Sharp too. He went back to the Great Hall were Greenfield was receiving the haversacks. He turned and said, "Thank you for getting those. Now which do you want, the sword of the dirk?" Lopper stammered, "I, g-get to choose? I'll, I'll take th-that sword." "No need to be surprised, I personally prefer my dirk, can you wield a sword?" "Yes sah, my Grandpa taught me, Blade master Kirk." "Is that so? He taught me too, I'll be glad knowing this sword will be going in capable paws." Suddenly, the Abbot came. "What is it, Greenfield? Why are you leaving so suddenly? You could at least have a little meal before you go…" "No time Father, there is a vermin attack coming, even greater than any that has ever happened! Good bye!" With that, the pair of warriors left the bewildered Abbot in the Hall and set off.
Chapter Five
They walked until noon, then stopped. "One hour, then we move." Greenfield said. His blistering pace had left Lopper pretty tired. "Alright old bean wake me then!" he scoffed down a few scones, then threw himself down. Greenfield followed his example, but his long experience enabled him to wake instantly when he wanted. An hour later, he awoke and then touched Lopper's shoulder, "Come on, time to get up." "Yaawwn, okay. Well, I think I'm ready, last night's meal still had a hold on my stomach." They set off again, walking for several hours at a fast pace, sometimes jogging when on a nice, smooth part of the path. They came upon a small dwelling in the woods when the evening sun was filling the sky with brilliant colors. Greenfield went to the door and knocked. The hub-bub inside ceased. The door then cautiously opened and revealed a hedgehog, with several small hedgehogs sitting at a table, along with another, obviously his wife, sitting by the fire knitting. "Good day, well evening, sir, I am Greenfield, and this is my friend Lopper. We have urgent business and would like to stay the night if it is not troubling you." The hedgehog thought a moment then said, "Aye sirs, come in, just leave your weapons where the little uns' can't reach them. Oh, and Mr. Lopper, no need to stint yourself, the youngsters found a huge berry patch today, so my wife baked lots of berry pasties, plenty for all." they sat down at the large table, and dug in. The pasties were delicious, warm and steamy with a honey glaze. They were fully of berries, and if they weren't carful, the berries would all come out. The hedgehog, Trunnspikes, brought out some sweet cordial for the little ones and nut brown ale for himself and his guests. "Now then sirs, what is your urgent business?" Trunnspikes asked them after the little one's bedtime, sipping his ale. "As you may know, there has been absolutely no vermin activity for twenty seasons." "Sounds mighty pleasant if you ask me, but go on." The hedgehog said. "There have been no local bands or any bands for this time, so I guessed that a few seasons were spent gathering forces, maybe four or so. Then, the other fifteen seasons could be used to train that army and Have lots of little vermin, they grow up and are trained. Now, in the Spring, I have estimated that they will strike then, it is fall now, and winters can be rather harsh. Spring would be the ideal time to strike." "Sounds very serious, but do you have any, well, proof?" "No, none except reasoning. That is what my business is, getting an expedition arranged to see if my guess is true." Trunnspikes was silent for a minute, then said, "Well, if your search proves correct, please come back and tell me. I'll tell other woodlanders in the area, and we'll go to Redwall." With that, Trunnspikes offered them some spare cushions which was all the extras they had. They set themselves up by the fire and went to sleep.
Chapter Six
The next morning, Greenfield and Lopper ate a quick breakfast, then set off, bidding farewell to their hosts. They walked on speedily until about ten o' clock. They had come to the dune lands. They had a short rest and snack, then struck off. They were walking steadily up a high dune, when Lopper stopped, sniffing the air. "I say, is that the sea breeze blowing? Mighty fine smell, always liked it." "Guess your right, come on, it's probably over the next ridge." They crested the hill, and saw Salamandastron up ahead, standing over the seashore, looking strong against the sea, always trying to climb up to it. They hurried down the hill and across the plain to Salamandastron. They approached the gate, when the sentry called out, "Identify yourselves!" "Is that your Bronly? It's me, Lopper and this Greenfield chap, a particular friend of Lord Oak, wot wot!" They walked in, Bronly walking with them and talking to Lopper. "Oh, you lucky hare, you just got back from Redwall. Got any souvenirs?" "You mean food? Ho ho, your in luck. We have some pasties those chaps make, here, have one." The hare eagerly accepted it, consuming it rapidly. "Well, those cooks do you're their jolly business, well, see you around flopper ears!" They continued up to the forge room, and knocked. A loud, "Come in!" sounded and they entered. Oak was taking off his forge apron and coming to meet them. He shook Greenfield's paw affectionately. "It's good to see you again old friend. I didn't expect you to come." "Good to see you too, but unfortunately, I have grave news. Summon your captains and cornels. When all we assembled, Greenfield began. "There has been absolutely no activity whatsoever with the vermin for twenty seasons. I guessed that if they all gathered under one standard, it would take maybe, five of those seasons of peace. The rest could be spent creating a new generation and training them. BY Spring, I'm sure they'll be ready to march." The hares all looked surprised, then one spoke, "That seems true, but we need proof. I'll arrange a party to go and scout out what they can. The rest of us will arrange a plan. Let's get to work chaps, we haven't got all day!" They broke up, some going to arrange an expedition, while the senior officers stayed, and began to plan.
Chapter Seven
The top brass of the Long Patrol was stumped. Alone, Redwall would likely fall, but Salamandastron would be too vulnerable if too many were sent. Then Greenfield spoke up, "I know the Redwallers, even though there are peaceful and beast to beast poor fighters, but has Redwall ever been defeated? I will go, with me I will take a score of hares with lots of weapons, they in turn will gather their woodland friends to Redwall, also bringing in provisions and stripping all they can from the area. They will go into Redwall, and my hares and I will help prepare defenses." "I sah, laddie, will a score be enough against those hordes? I know they are very capable, but will it be enough?" "I was thinking about that, but if we depart within a day or two, carrying lots of weapons, we will be able to reach Redwall, fortify it and train its inhabitants for war. And maybe another score or so would be best. How about Lopper's platoon? Thirty nine hares and I makes forty warriors." "A brilliant plan, depart tomorrow. Take all spare weapons in this mountain, I can make more for us." "One moment, this chap is at a disadvantage in a way. There is no way he can effectively bring all his forces to bear down upon us. They would consume our larders in a week! He probably will split his army in several hordes, send them to different areas, and work that way, meaning we won't be instantly crushed. That's what I would do, at least." "Good thinking, let's get a move on!" Oak said.
Meanwhile, a score of hares had quickly packed some provisions and set off. They made good time, marching on. For a few days, the weather was fine and warm. But, the weather began to grow colder. And colder, until frost formed in the morning. Finally, after a few weeks of trekking, came upon a cleared out forest. There were only stumps left, and signs of dragging logs. There were also large pits with various shafts. They walked on for a few miles and came to a sort of dish shaped valley at night. Revealed by the moon, what they saw made their blood run cold. There was a huge fortress, bigger than Salamandastron. It was made of stone blocks for about thirty feet in the air. The remainder of the fort was logs that seemed to be coated with something. Going outside in, there was a deep, moat with nothing in it. The outer wall was about 100 feet high, with a thirty foot tall tower every so often. Next, the keep, it rose about three hundred feet into the air, tall and foreboding. Halfway up, there was a massive skull painted on the side. Silently, leaving all but their weapons behind, stole up to the fortress to get a better look. They had to climb up a tall hill of rubble and stone chunks. As they crested the ridge, they found trenches dug into it, with boards securing it. After climbing down, they had to maneuver around several obstacles, trenches and pits, they came to the moat. It was deep with sharpened stakes at the bottom. There was no way they could get over it without filling in the moat. They crept along the edge, looking for more. There were four gates, one on each side, each one made of timber coated with something, laced with iron. After awhile, the sergeant decided it was enough and they set off for home. When they arrived, winter had nearly hit Salamandastron. Once inside, they reported to Oak every detail. "This is grave news, send a runner to Redwall and tell this to Greenfield. The runner can stay at Redwall." A runner was dispatched, and the real preparation for the attack begun.
Chapter Eight
Inside that great fortress, at the time when the scouts arrived, a council was in seession. In the center, the was amassive hall, a hundred feet high, with dark, oaken rafters stretching up the stone walls. Lower down, there were wall coverings with the skins of the warlord's enimies. There was a great stone daisis, on it was a great stone throne, and it held a huge beast wearing a robe and hood, masking his feutures, completely black. Kneeling in front of him was a large, powerful looking weasel, wearing a snakeskin belt and green tunic with the appearance of a reptiles hide, Tomscar, pitmaster. To the large beasts right was a fox, Hellteeth the beasts right paw beast, with red painted fangs, maroon red tunic with a cutlass in a sturdy holster. "Hail, Lord Artharkus, Ruler of the North, I am here at your command." Tomscar said, reciting the proper greeting. "Rise,whats the status of the army?" Artharkus said in his deep, booming voice. Rising, Tomscar said, "All footbeasts are ready to march, each with a months worth of provisions. Supply beasts have all neccasary things, food, water, poultices, stakes, shovels, picks and axes. The riders are all ready. In total, 5,000 foot soldiers, 10,000 support, and 1,000 riders." "Excellent, tell them we will march in one hour . Is your mount ready?" Artharkus asked. Parting his lips in a wicked smile, "Aye, sir. Scarbreath is ready."
The massive army went out of the fortress, well-armed and equipped fighters on the sides, support beasts in the middle. The rearguard and vanguard were occupied by various beasts riding large reptiles. In the lead was Arthrkus on a big lizard, and just behind him, was a huge lizard, the komodo dragon, Scarbreath.
Chapter Nine
Later that winter, the Abbey beasts were ready for war, weapons were made, stone piled on the
ramparts, and everybeast capable of doing so were making arrows, and spears. Thanks to some carven hole expansions([{Authors Note: See The Legend of Greenfield}]) many beasts were practicing archery, slinging, spear and rock throwing. The otters were already fairly adept at these skills, and many other beasts were quick learners. Greenfield was working with the captain of Loppers plantoon, Sargon , to make a plan of defense. Urthpaw, the foremole of Redwall, had lived in the Northlands in his younger days,

Benign Disease of the Breast
The breast consists of two types of tissues: glandular and
stromal (supportive) tissues. Lobules and ducts make up the glandular
portion of the breast, while fatty and fibrous connective tissue make up the
stroma. Any of these tissues of the breast can undergo changes which can
cause a patient to have symptoms. Cysts, fibroadenomas, fibrocystic
change, infection, and inflammation are all examples of processes which can
manifest in the breast, but are considered benign.
Women can experience various kinds of breast lumps and changes,
particularly during their menstrual cycle, pregnancy, or with aging that can
mimic breast cancer, even when they are not. Since most breast lumps and
changes are in fact benign, it is important to distinguish these lesions
from their malignant counterparts, in order to alleviate undue anxiety.
The most common benign diseases of the breast are presented
below. These encompass the majority of presenting breast complaints in the
ambulatory surgery setting.
Nipple Discharge
Nipple discharge is a symptomatic problem which causes patients
both anxiety and discomfort. It can occur in either sex, but predominantly
occurs in females. It is most often due to a benign process, and can occur
at any age, from infancy to adulthood. When evaluating nipple discharge,
the first step is to determine whether it is a result of a physiologic or
pathologic process. For example, women using contraceptives or hormone
replacement therapy can have non-clinically significant nipple discharge,
secondary to the effects of the medications on the breast epithelium.
Physiologic discharges tend to occur only with compression of
the nipple or breast and are characterized by multiple duct involvement. These
discharges are most often bilateral, and their source is often revealed by a
careful history. After exclusion of malignancy by mammography, reassurance
is often the only therapy necessary.
Nipple discharges are classified as pathologic if they are
spontaneous, bloody, or associated with a mass. They tend to be unilateral
and confined to one duct, and their risk for malignancy increases in patients
over 50 or when associated with positive mammographic or galactographic
findings. The most common cause for pathologic nipple discharge is an
intraductal papilloma, a benign local proliferation of ductal epithelial cells.
Other causes include duct ectasia (second most common cause), cysts, and
subareolar abscesses.
In either case, the work-up should include localization of the
affected duct (or ducts), and examination for occult blood. A diagnostic
mammogram is useful for identifying non-palpable masses and calcifications.
All patients with a spontaneous, unilateral, or bloody discharge should be
referred for surgical evaluation. A terminal duct excision is both
diagnostic and, for discharges that turn out to have a benign cause,
Fibroadenomas are among the most common benign tumors and are
typically not considered to have malignant potential. They are composed of
stromal and epithelial elements and represent a hyperplastic process in a
single, terminal ductal unit. Within the breast, two
kinds of breast stroma exist: intralobular and interlobular. Intralobular stroma
contains lobules composed of 6-10 major ductal systems surrounded by a
myxomatous stroma, and it is from this stroma that fibroadenomas arise.
They typically occur in younger women (teens to 30's), and
present as palpable or non-palpable, oval, freely mobile, rubbery masses.
Usually a solitary lesion, they present in a range of sizes, from very small (<1
cm) to extremely large (up to 15 cm). Although usually only a single lump
presents itself, about 10-15% of women may have multiple masses, affecting both
Fibroadenomas are most often painless and appear to respond to
hormonal changes. During the reproductive years, and during pregnancy in
particular, they may increase in size. After menopause, they tend to
regress in size.
Evaluation is usually made by ultrasound (for women under 30) or
ultrasound/mammogram for women over 30. On ultrasound, fibroadenomas are
circumscribed, homogeneous, oval, hypoechoic masses, often with gentle
lobulations and a smooth, thin, echogenic capsule. On mammogram, they
appear as circumscribed oval or round masses, which occasionally have coarse
Definitive diagnosis, however, is made by
fine needle aspiration or open biopsy, with FNA the preferred evaluation. If a biopsy
indicates that the lump is a fibroadenoma, the lump may be left in place or
removed, depending on the patient and the lump. If left in place, it may be
watched over time with physical examinations, mammograms, and ultrasounds.
Alternatively, the lump may be surgically removed, depending on the features of
the lump and the patient's preferences. Typically, however, approximately 50% of
fibroadenomas will resolve on their own within 5 years, so conservative "watch
and wait" treatment is plausible.
Fibrocystic Disease
Fibrocystic breast disease (FBD) is the most common cause of breast
lumps in women of childbearing age. Although not generally considered a
"disease" per say, fibrocystic change is a manifestation of normal physiologic
changes, which occur in response to menstrual hormonal changes. It is
encountered so often, that some doctors consider it a normal variant. The
condition is characterized by freely mobile masses (typically multiple) in
the breast tissue, that are tender to palpation. Breast tissue is often
described as "lumpy and bumpy".
Although the exact cause of fibrocystic change is unknown, it is
thought to be a result of the way breast tissue responds to monthly hormonal
changes (estrogen, progesterone, and even prolactin) in premenopausal women.
This comes from the observation that symptoms are generally worse before the
onset of menses and improve afterwards. In addition, fibrocystic change is
rare in postmenopausal women, unless receiving hormone replacement therapy (HRT).
The symptoms of fibrocystic breast disease can range from mild
to severe. Patients may report feeling lumps enlarging or regressing,
breast tenderness (particularly to touch), nipple discharge (prolactin
stimulated from lump pressing against a milk gland) and changes in nipple
sensation, such as itching.
Diagnosis is made with a detailed medical history and physical
exam, with emphasis on changes in symptomology with time (before, during , and
after a menstrual cycle). Mammography and ultrasound may be helpful,
except in younger women with denser breasts. Definitive diagnosis can be
made with FNA or excisional biopsy, although a good clinical exam is often all
that is necessary. Treatment is mainly reassurance and pain relievers
(aspirin, etc.).
Breast Cyst
Breast cysts are very similar in nature to fibrocystic breast
change, however, unlike the latter, they exist as true "cysts". Like FBD,
they tend to occur in response to hormonal changes; typically when the breast is
stimulated by an excess of estrogen. As such, they are the most common
cause of a breast mass in women in their 40's and 50's, or postmenopausal women
taking HRT. They are less prevalent in premenopausal women under 40.
Breast cysts are classified according to how they appear on
ultrasound. Simple cysts are well-defined, round or oblong masses which
the ultrasound signal passes readily through. They look very dark on
ultrasound and have a thin, distinct, border. Complex cysts, on the other
hand, may be less well-defined. The ultrasound image is usually
grayish-black, with fuzzy edges, as the signal does not pass easily through
On physical exam, it is often difficult to distinguish a cyst
from a solid mass. Ultrasound or FNA must be employed to establish a
definitive diagnosis. Most aspirated cysts yield straw-colored or
green-tinged fluid and the cyst resolved following aspiration (the capsule
involutes) . Unless bloody fluid or a residual mass remains following
aspiration, routine cytologic examination of cyst fluid is not indicated, as
there is a low likelihood of cancer. Bloody fluid or a residual mass does,
however, warrant further evaluation with diagnostic mammography and biopsy, in
addition to cytologic analysis of aspirated fluid
Patients with a solitary breast cyst should be reexamined four
to six weeks after cyst aspiration to determine if the cyst has recurred.
Aspiration is still an appropriate first step in the management of a breast
cyst, but clinical follow-up after aspiration is essential.

Backup and archiving survey results released
Tandberg Data
: 17 June, 2009
(Technical Article)
Tandberg Data reveals cost focus on archiving important for SME sector along with growing demand for scalable systems
Tandberg Data has revealed the results of its 2009 partner survey. The global survey is the second of its kind, following the first research in 2007. In the survey, 100 channel partners have shared their views on trends and developments in the SMB storage market. By conducting a second research 18 months after the initial research, Tandberg Data was able to uncover interesting developments and trends.
Resellers, Distributors and Value Added Resellers shared their views on developments at their customers - the end users (all small to medium sized businesses across all industries) - and also provided feedback on qualities they expect of vendors.
When asked the importance of key qualities in vendors, vendor relationships and the ease of doing business with the vendor were still the key elements for the channel when selecting their vendor of choice (98% indicated that this is important to very important). However, in the current challenging economic climate, pricing and discounts/rebates are becoming increasingly important; more than 90% of the respondents indicated that this is an important criteria.
'Selling is all about relationships,' said Chris Reeves, at Northamber, Distributor of Tandberg Data Solutions in the UK. 'It's about relationships with our customers and, in turn, with our vendors. Of course the basics; strong, reliable products, good pricing, logistics and support need to be covered, and those are the reasons why a vendor will choose Northamber. After that, relationships seal the deal. That's what makes you walk that extra mile when closing deals. Our relationship with the Tandberg Data team is a prime example of the successes you can achieve if you do it right.'
As customers are struggling with increased data volumes, system performance and availability demands, finding reliable storage solutions that meet their requirements is a challenge. This year's survey showed that customers are looking for products with long warranty periods and advanced replacement offerings. In the current economic climate, the survey shows that end users are less likely to pay the more expensive on-site service contracts.
In the past years, the industry has witnessed the introduction and success of tiered storage in the SMB market, with disk taking a vital role in backup and archiving scenarios. The survey confirmed that 81% end users are opting for disk based backup - in the form of NAS (33%), Disk-to-Disk-to-Tape (28%) or Virtual Tape (20%). Requirements for disk are ease of integration and use and scalability. LTO tape technology and tape automation remain the archiving method of choice for most end users - tape is moving into an archival role. In the archiving arena, scalability and upgradeability are key requirements for tape automation solutions.
"Comparing the 2009 research with the 2007 research, we have seen a shift in the way end users do their backup and archiving," said Bharat Kumar, vice president of marketing and strategy at Tandberg Data. "In line with industry predictions, our channel partners reported that end users are moving away from tape for backup. In stead they are looking for easy to use, scalable disk based backup solutions such as our recently introduced DPS1000 Series VTL. They are also telling us that end users are moving away from disk for archiving - in stead choosing to use the more economical, "no-power-medium" - tape - which provides them with secure, cost effective, long term archiving."

.NET and DynamoDB
In this tutorial, you use the AWS SDK for .NET to write simple programs to perform the following Amazon DynamoDB operations:
Create a table called
Moviesusing a utility program written in C# and load sample data in JSON format.
Perform create, read, update, and delete operations on the table.
Run simple queries.
The DynamoDB module of the AWS SDK for .NET offers several programming models for different use cases. In this exercise, the C# code uses both the document model, which provides a level of abstraction that is often convenient, and also the low-level API, which handles nested attributes more effectively. For information about the document model API, see .NET: Document Model, and for information about the low-level API, see Working with Tables Using the AWS SDK for .NET Low-Level API.
You use the downloadable version of DynamoDB in this tutorial. In the Summary, we explain how to run the same code against the DynamoDB service in the cloud.
Cost: Free
Use a computer running a recent version of Microsoft Windows and a current version of Microsoft Visual Studio. If you don't already have Visual Studio installed, you can download a free copy of the Community edition from the Visual Studio website.
Download and run DynamoDB Local. For more information, see Running DynamoDB on Your Computer.
Sign up for Amazon Web Services and create access keys. You need these credentials to use AWS SDKs. To create an AWS account, go to https://aws.amazon.com/, choose Create an AWS Account, and then follow the online instructions.
Set up a security profile for DynamoDB in Visual Studio. See the step-by-step instructions for doing this in Creating Example Tables and Uploading Data Using the AWS SDK for .NET.
In Visual Studio, create a new project called
DynamoDB_introusing the Console Application template in the Installed/Templates/Visual C#/ node. This is the project you use throughout this Getting Started tutorial.
The following tutorial does not work with .NET core as it does not support synchronous methods. For more information, see AWS Asynchronous APIs for .NET.
Install the NuGet package for the DynamoDB module of the AWS SDK for .NET, version 3 into you new
DynamoDB_introproject. To do this, open the NuGet Package Manager Console from the Tools menu in Visual Studio and type the following command at the
PM> Install-Package AWSSDK.DynamoDBv2
