If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you.
Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. If possible, it is recommended that you try the newest available Fedora distribution to see if your bug still exists.
Please read the Release Notes for the newest Fedora distribution to make sure it will meet your needs:

are closing this bug.
If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version
of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version.
Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.

Jason and Paul continued to talk about their plans for the villa. They decided to get their laptops out and create spreadsheets for their lists. Paul had the project list and Jason had the "must be fixed" list. They discussed each list arguing about priorities and finally settled into agreement after two hours of lively conversation.
Jason announced he was going to turn on the television and look for home improvement shows, in order to start learning new skills. Paul rolled his eyes at Jason and went to the bedroom with his laptop to catch up on email and market news. Jason was a little disappointed because he wanted to watch home improvement shows with Paul and discuss plans for the villa.
Never the less Jason sank down in the couch cushions, one hand caressing his privates, the other hand gripping the remote. Jason systematically traveled through the entire channel spectrum. All of the home improvement channels were currently featuring decorators matching fabric and paint colors. There were no power tools being used. It was all fluffy shit, Jason became impatient. After fifteen minutes of channel flipping Jason bounded into the bedroom to inform Paul of his disgust.
Jason found Paul in the bathroom. Paul had emptied all the drawers and cabinets throwing the contents all over the bathroom. He was currently emptying the bathroom storage closet of towels, sheets, toilet paper, and soap.
Jason asked, "Paul what are you doing?"
Paul did not look up or answer.
Jason was bewildered, It was the middle of the afternoon and Paul was fully fed and watered. To Jason's knowledge Paul was under no physical stress, and he had eaten only an hour before. Was Paul mad because Jason was watching T.V.? Jason was puzzled.
Paul started tearing open rolls of toilet paper. He began throwing wads around the bathroom.
Jason just shook his head, asking again, "Paul, are you angry about something?" Paul gave Jason a disgusted look.
Jason guessed again, "Are you angry that I have 200k in my checking account?" Paul rolled is eyes at Jason and continued with his mess making. Impatient Jason yelled, "I'm going to fucking beat your ass if you don't tell me what this is about Paul!"
Paul assumed a submissive position on his knees looking up to Jason, his beautiful grey eyes begging to be spanked.
Jason looked down at Paul and sighed, "Babe if you needed a spanking you could have just said so." Paul looked at him disgustedly again.
Jason snapped. He left the room and yelled into the hallway.
Yvonne came running in from outside, her hands filled with mangoes, wild-eyed wondering what the emergency was. Jason announced, "I have a situation in here I have deal with!" Jason nodded meaningfully to the bedroom. "Do you need to go shopping, or something?" Yvonne just nodded. She would ask Lesroy to take her into town.
Jason went back into the bedroom slamming the door.
Jason found Paul in the bathroom still being a little bastard throwing wads of toilet paper around the bathroom. Jason fetched his flogger from his toy drawer and walked into the bathroom. He purposefully.grabbed Paul by the upper arm and dragged him into the bedroom.
"Really Paul? Your just gonna throw a little fit? Can't you talk to me and tell me what you need? Do you really want to piss me off and make me punish you?"
Paul looked into Jason's eyes and answered him directly. "Yes, Jason." Jason pressed, "Yes, you want to piss me off? Or, Yes you need your ass beat?" Paul answered, "I want to piss you off and have my ass beat."
Jason looked at Paul for a long minute and then roared with laughter. When he settled down from laughing he pulled Paul close and asked sweetly, " So you need those two things together? Pissing me off first and then an ass beating?"
Paul nodded yes. Jason sighed again. Clearly Paul thought Jason had been neglecting his duties. It had been days since Paul had been spanked.
Not wanting to disappoint Paul further, Jason jumped up and drug Paul across the bedroom and hoisted him up in front of an open window, facing outward. Paul's erection hung in the wind. Jason tied Paul's arms to the iron curtain rod holders on each side of the window. They were solid iron bolted into the stucco and could fully hold Paul's weight.
Paul was standing naked, arms outstretched, waiting for his ass to be beaten. Paul's whole body tingled in anticipation. Paul knew the security guards would probably see him on their patrol around the property, but he did not care. Paul just wanted Jason to beat his ass black and blue. Paul was so aroused he started to pump his stiff cock into the air.
Jason walked up behind him with the flogger and blistered each ass cheek until they were bright red. Paul's legs weakened and he hung from his restraints, enjoying the pain sensation and wanting more. Jason realized then that he had been successful in conditioning Paul to equate pain and humiliation stimuli into a sexual response.
Jason's kink sprang into high gear. He intended to beat Paul's pretty white ass cheeks a dire shade of red. Jason would keep Paul hanging here knowing all the employees of the estate were probably watching. Jason's was on fire to blister Paul's ass and let everyone on the property watch.
To tease any watchers Jason pushed Paul's pelvis forward. Jason wanted Paul's erection to hang out the window.
Jason whispered into Paul's ears. "I'm going to have to spank your ass in front of the whole estate Paul." Paul's eyes were closed as he listened to the tantalizing sound of Jason's voice. Paul hung blissfully from his restraints, his cock pulsing into the air.
Jason dropped the flogger and grabbed the crop knowing Paul was more sensitive to the crop.The pain from the crop would sharper and more intense. Jason struck Paul with the crop three times on each ass cheek. Paul's engorged cock bounced as the crop struck Paul's ass, Paul moaned with pleasure. Jason kept smacking him with the crop on the ass and shoulders, occasionally landing blows on Paul's sensitive thighs.
Rocket fuel rushed through Jason's balls. He loved to punish Paul. Jason decided to add nipple clamps and weights. Jason went back to his toy drawer to get them. He walked purposefully back to Paul attaching a nipple clamp to each nipple. Paul cried out in pain. Jason played with the nipple clamps by touching them with his finger tips. Paul writhed. Jason was ecstatic at the pain registering on Paul's face. Jason then added the weights. Paul moaned in both pain and pleasure. Jason picked up the flogger again and started to strike Paul's red ass is a criss cross pattern. The weights swayed with each hit pulling on Paul's nipples harshly. Paul just hung from his restraints and groaned.
A crowd was starting to gather below, about a 75 yards from the window. The group consisted of Leonard, the gay gardener (Yvonne's son), and three straight security guards. They looked up to the white man strung up before them in the window. They looked at Paul's bound body, his flushed chest, and his strong erection. They watched his dick bounce around with every strike of Jason's whip. The group had watched breathlessly as Jason attached clips to Paul's nipples and hung weights off off them, letting them dangle.
They wondered how Jason could be so brutal. They watched as the weights bounced around pulling hard on Paul's nipples. All four of the men were sexually aroused, projecting themselves in fantasy as either Jason or Paul. Yvonne's son Leonard wanted to be Paul. The other men envied Jason and wanted to be him.
Their rapt attention stayed on the show above them. All four black men watched Jason beat Paul's ass relentlessly. At times they became a little uncomfortable with the intensity and the longevity of Jason's assault on Paul's body. They could see Paul's entire body was bright red and full of marks from the whip.
Suddenly, Jason dropped down behind Paul. The men strained to see what he was doing, and gasped when they figured out Jason was licking Paul's ass. This surprised the security guards and they stood up straighter to watch. They noticed how strong Jason's erection was while he licked Paul. They marveled at how long Jason pleasured himself at Paul's hole. Leonard and pushed his jeans down on his thighs and started stroking his uncut mocha colored dick, intently watching Jason eat Paul's ass.
Jason continued to worship Paul's ass for another 30 minutes. The security guards watched rubbing their meaty black cocks through their jeans. They watched as Jason rubbed Paul's balls, and stroked Paul's cock never moving his face from Paul's ass crack.
Paul was weak and exhausted from the flogging. He hung in the window by his wrists focused solely Jason's tongue in his ass and Jason's hand on his dick. "May I come Jason?"
Jason did not get a chance to answer before Paul shuddered and ejaculated 3 feet into the air in front of him. It was a very long and intense orgasm. Jason kept tonguing Paul until Paul finished coming and hung still.
Jason was so fucking hot for Paul. He stood up and got behind Paul, and pressing his dickhead into Paul's anus. Paul gasped as Jason pushed his way in. Jason began to fuck Paul hard. The nipple clamps and weights flying wildly around his chest. Jason slapped Paul's ass several times with his hands while he fucked him. Jason could see the men below watching, out of the corner of his eye. Jason fucked Paul harder demonstrating his ownership of Paul. Jason wanted to put on a good show. Jason looked down and was surprised to see Paul was was able to get hard again so quickly. Jason wondered if Paul was getting off on being watched, or if it was the combination of nipple torture and ass fucking.
Jason kept slapping Paul's ass and fucking him. Jason needed to come, badly. He pounded into Paul several more times before shuddering in orgasm ejaculating into Paul's ass. Jason hung there with Paul for a several minutes kissing Paul's shoulders and catching his breath.
Finally he let his dick slip out of Paul. Semen dripped out of Paul's ass and down his legs.
Jason backed away from the window and looked at Paul's body hanging there in the window frame. Paul's back and ass deeply red with the beating Jason had given him. Semen dripping from Paul's rectum running down his legs.Jason was very pleased with his work.
Jason approached Paul to untie him from his restraints.Paul whispered weakly, "Thank you, Jason."
The men outside had watched Paul ejaculate into the air. They could see the intensity of Paul's orgasm and now his exhaustion as he hung there. They were shocked when Jason started fucking Paul's ass. The black men wondered how Paul could possibly take it.
Collin, one of the security guards began to look at the top of Leonard's ass cheeks. Leonard was busy beating off and watching Jason fuck Paul.
Collin, knowing Lenny was gay asked, "Hey Lenny, you need some dick? I got some dick for you boy." Leonard stopped mid stroke and look hopefully back at the men. Leonard could smell their musk and lust, it fucking turned him on.
Another one of the security guards teased, "I got a fat mean cock for you boy." Excitement raced through Lenny's body. Lenny signaled for the men to follow him. They walked back behind the workshop to shady area that was private. He got down on his knees with his mouth open and waited for cock.
The three men immediately unleashed their dicks and approached Leonard mouth. All the men were uncut, their ebony cocks etched with bulging veins. Leonard had a light mocha complexion because his father was white. Nothing thrilled Lenny more than to have dark black cock stuffed down his throat. The men were relentless with Lenny, pumping into his mouth forcefully, tagging off with one another, taking turns. The men had gotten so aroused by watching Jason and Paul, that they fucked Lenny's face for over an hour.
Lenny nose was full of the smell of strong body odor, musk and sweat. All three of the men bodies were taut and glistening as they continued to fuck Lenny's face. Lenny spontaneously ejaculated from pleasure without even touching himself.
Collin said "I want to fuck that ass." The other two nodded in agreement. The three men walked around Lenny in a predatory manner rubbing their cocks.
Collin, the most aggressive of the guards growled, "Show us that ass boy." Collin eyes were locked onto Lenny's body.
Lenny stripped off his clothes. He lay back in the grass and lifted his legs spreading them for Collin. Collin drank in Lenny's light colored skin, smoothly shaved pubes and balls. Kenny had beautiful creamy skin, his ass hairless, his hole a little pink pucker. Collins breath caught as he looked at Lenny, desire surging through him.
Collin knelt down. Collin wanted to own that ass and ride it hard. Collin took a condom out of his wallet and rolled it on. Collin grabbed Leonard's ankles and positioned himself at Leonard's asshole. Collin pressed into Leonard slowly. Collin's ebony muscular body was gleaming with sweat. Collin threw back his head and groaned at the feeling of Leonard's tight ass.
Lenny's face registered extreme pleasure as he felt Collin's dickhead clear his anal opening. Leonard wished Collin would kiss him, but he knew that was not going to happen. Straight men rarely kissed. Maintaining his grip on Lenny's ankles Collin pumped into his ass. Collin forced his cock deeply into Lenny and began to increase his rhythm and force.
The other men were standing over Lenny masturbating. Lenny opened his mouth for cock. Both men dropped down to their knees at the invitation. Both tried to force their dicks in Leonard's mouth at one time. Lenny tried, but could not fit both dicks at the same time. The men resorted to taking turns.
Collin watched and continued fucking Leonard's ass. Collin loved the site of dark black cock sliding in and out of Lenny's mouth. Lenny spontaneously ejaculated again. He was having the best sexual experience of his life.
Collin scooted in closer to Lenny and buried the full length of his cock into his ass. Lenny was now flat on his back, his legs running up Collin's chest. Collin held onto Lenny's legs with both arms and pumped away into his ass as other two men fucked his face. Collin exploded in an orgasm coming in intense waves. He was unwilling to dismount Lenny, and continued to pump into him.
Realizing they were not going to get a turn at Lenny's ass both security guards ejaculated all over Lenny's chest and face. They stood up immediately, put their dicks up and returned to work.
Collin remained in the same position slowly pumping into Lenny's ass gazing down at Lenny's cum covered face and chest.
Collin asked, "Like taking my cock in your ass?"
Lenny answered, "yah mon, I luv dat fat cock."
Collin prompted, "You like sucking my big dick?"
"yah mon, I want your fat dick in me mouth."
Collin was smitten, he asked "You wanna be my boy?"
Lenny was honest, "I wanna be everyone's boy "
Collin got rock hard again at Lenny's responses, he fucked Lenny hard for another 30 minutes, ejaculating like a stallion. He fell exhausted into the grass beside Lenny.
Collin was in love.
It was 3:30pm in the afternoon and Jason and Paul were in the master bathtub together. The bathroom was still a wreck around them from Paul's tantrum.
Jason was washing Paul's back and telling him about all the power tools he planned to buy. Jason wanted to go straight to the hardware store from the airport on Sunday. Paul listened contentedly at Jason's chatter enjoying the feeling of Jason's hands soaping his body.
Paul interrupted Jason, "I love you, you fucking kinky bastard."
Jason laughed and pulled Paul closer to him, announcing, "I'm going to get your name tattooed on my ass." Paul thought he was just kidding around.
Jason asked, "What is your middle name?"
Concerned now, Paul replied "Benjamin."
Paul asked, "Why would you do that Jason? Anyway, I thought it was the submissive that always got marked."
Jason was quiet for several minutes. Jason wanted Paul's name on his body to demonstrate the permanence of his commitment to Paul. It was like a wedding ring that could never be taken off.
Instead of trying to explain he just said, "Paul, marry me."
Jason waited for Paul to respond. When he did not get an answer Jason explained, "Paul, my parents are long dead and I was an only child. If anything happens to me I want you to have whatever I have. We are going to own property together. We love each other. It just makes sense to get married."
Paul just sat there thinking. Jason kissed Paul's shoulders.
Paul asked, "Can two guys get married in New York?"
Jason answered, "I don't know. We can always go to another state to get it done."
Paul knowing that Jason needed some type of answer said, "I like the idea but my divorce has only been final for 2 months. I feel like I have been married all my life. Let's continue to talk about it for a while. I need to get used to the idea." Disappointed, but determined to be good spirited about it, Jason warned, "I'm still getting the tattoo."
Jason and Paul climbed out of the bathtub. Paul winced when the towel touched his tender skin. His ass and shoulders were still bright red. Jason lathered Paul with lotion.
Jason and Paul both put on a pair of jeans, and went bare chested into the kitchen. They were hungry. Yvonne had just arrived. She and Lesroy were unloading groceries. Jason announced dramatically that he and Paul were hungry and would probably perish before dinner could be made.
Yvonne rolling her eyes plating them up a helping of pasta salad to hold them over. Paul thanked Yvonne and then turned toward the table. Yvonne gasped when she saw Paul's back, and dropped the bowl on the floor shattering it. Everyone jumped.
Jason knew he was going to have to explain something to them. "Leave it Yvonne. Sit down. Both of you for a few minutes."
Between bites Jason explained simply, "Paul and I like kinky sex. I like to tie him up and spank him, among other naughty things. We spend a lot of time having sex, sometimes for hours on end."
Jason paused, "We really like it here. We love the property and we enjoy being around you both."
Jason took another few bites, after swallowing he continued earnestly, "But if your a part of our household your gonna see things.It is inevitable. We need your discretion and loyalty. If we can have those two things, our relationship can last a lifetime and will be beneficial to everyone."
Lesroy, had worked on the property for 13 years. He wanted to continue to be near Yvonne and he was thrilled that the men were going to purchase the estate. He loved hearing about all their projects and building plans. He instinctively knew the men were kind and generous and would be good employers. All they were asking for is loyalty and discretion. He would gladly give it.
Lesroy, "I would be happy to serve you both sirs with loyalty and discretion."
Yvonne nodded her head vigorously. "Me too, loyalty and discretion."
She stood to clean up the mess on the floor and make dinner.
Lesroy offered, "Do you want to start any of the projects this week?"
Paul shook his head and spoke up. "We can't until the sale is final. I'm going to work on getting the process started next week. We do plan to utilize as much of the land as possible. There will be a garden, fruit trees and several new buildings. I want to hire an architect to help us plan out the buildings. Ideally we need to arrange the buildings in a way that if necessary the estate could be subdivided and sold off separately.
Paul looked up seeing alarm on all three faces. He held up his hands. "We have no plans to do that in our lifetime but it increases the property value and protects our investment. The first building will be a four-plex bungalow for Yvonne and her son on one side and both property overseers on the other." Lesroy smiled. He was currently living in a crude block building on the edge of the property.
Jason impulsively interrupted, "Lesroy can you take me to buy some tools tomorrow?"
Paul shook his head at Jason and laughed, admonishing Lesroy. "Nothing dangerous please."
Jason face registered outraged.
He said stubbornly, "I'm getting power tools, Paul."
Paul lectured, "Jason, work your way up slowly. Buy a hammer and practice with that. If you don't kill yourself with it, then buy a drill. Baby steps."
Lesroy laughed out loud. "I'd be happy to take you into town tomorrow sir."

Duncan encouraged his constituents in Wiltshire to 'pass on' their donation wishes to loved ones, marking the annual UK-wide National Transplant Week.
National Transplant Week aims to increase understanding of organ donation and encourage more people to join the NHS Organ Donor Register.
Three people die every day whilst they wait for organs in the UK and just 30% of the UK population is currently signed up to the NHS Organ Donor Register.
Despite the thousands of life-saving transplant operations which take place every year, some 7,500 people are on the waiting list for a transplant in the UK.
Duncan said:
"I am delighted to be supporting National Transplant Week 2012, there are already 34,888 people on the Organ Donor Register in the Chippenham Constituency and I hope the week encourages more constituents to become donors and 'pass it on' to loved ones."
Sally Johnson, the NHS's Director of Organ Donation and Transplantation, added:
"We hope that this year's National Transplant Week will encourage sign up to the ODR, and encourage donors to talk to their family and friends about their donation wishes."
If you join the ODR tell the people closest to you. Otherwise, your wishes may come as a surprise at a time when they are trying to deal with their loss. This could affect their decision to proceed with a life-saving donation. To add your name to the ODR please call 0300 123 2323, text JOIN 84880 or visit the NHS's organ donation website.

I think if you're (people in general) gonna post shit you know the answer to or word whatever your asking an opinion to in trollish way then it shouldn't matter if opinions come flying in antagonistic/offensive way..00|00|0
or if you tread the grey area quite well and are smart about it, but it would be reasonable to conclude that you're perverted or at least creepy. if someone says this to you, you may be offended but the opinion on the other end isn't without good reason!

Great protection for all computer needs
A great product easy to install and use. I particularly like the safe money feature which means I can bank and pay for goods online with peace of mind. My computer never slows down due to updates or scans unlike when I used a different make. I have brought this product from a store, and updated online when licence has run out three times as it has never let me down. This review is from Kaspersky Internet Security 2017

Long time user
I have used KIS for many years and have recommended the product many times. I bought this 2nd KIS 2016 because I'd used up the 5 licences on the previous KIS bought last year. I think that speaks for itself. The only Con is I wish you could get individual licences added to the previously registered software so that all computers etc. would be upgraded together at the end of the licence period.

My fourth year
I have found that Kaspersky has done all of that that I need. I changed to this supplier because I found that my last one had 'signed me up for life by direct debit'. I have found that not only does it give me the protection I need I do not have to employ a lawyer to explain the small print to me. Thank you. This review is from Kaspersky Internet Security 2017

Excellent Product
This is the first time that I have used a Kaspersky product and it's certainly a worthy choice. The user interface is nicely designed and makes for ease of use. There is no notable impact on system resources even while carrying out a scan. It runs quietly in the background and you would not notice that it was even there. The scans are quick and there are several choices of types of scan to choose from. Safe Money and Parental Control are excellent features. It gives you peace of mind while using the Internet. All in all an excellent product with a great anti-virus engine which I highly recommend. A ++++ This review is from Kaspersky Internet Security 2017

Mathletics - Making Math Fun for Canadian StudentsFriday, November 25, 2016
When it comes to math, I find that students either love it or hate it. Personally, I have always loved math but few of my classmates were of the same accord. My daughter does not like it but my son seems to really enjoy it. If only we could get every student to feel the same way as he does. As an educator, I feel it is of utmost importance that we make math fun. Using interactive web sites such as Mathletics.ca can help do just that. Not only is Mathletics interactive and engaging, it can help students improve their results. Plus, it is targeted towards Provincial Curricula across Canada.
Last summer, my kids had the opportunity to try out the home version of Mathletics. As a result, I noticed a marked improvement in my daughter's attitude towards math. She seemed so motivated to achieve gold status for each set of math activities and did not feel the frustration she would often feel when completing pen-and-paper math homework. In fact, it gave her a sense of accomplishment and helped to boost her confidence. This is why I feel that Mathletics is an ideal resource for Canadian classrooms. I have come across quite a few online learning sites in my time but Mathletics has to be one of the most thorough and comprehensive digital resources I have seen thus far. Not only is it an excellent tool for students that adapts to their ability level and provides them with instant feedback, it is also an indispensable tool for teachers as well, providing an effortless solution to differentiated instruction, automated testing and real-time data to support learning outcomes.
Once classes are set up, students can be grouped and assigned a course based on the required curriculum and grade level. Click here to view Ontario Outcomes - Alignment with Mathletics which outlines how the Mathletics Ontario course specifically follows the Ontario curriculum. Additional courses are available for other Provincial Curricula as well. Teachers can customize their courses by clicking on "Courses" from the Teacher Centre, selecting or hiding topics or strands for students or groups of students, as well as selecting activities that are easier or harder. There is also a PDF guide next to each of the activities which provides a description of the activity as well as teaching hints, which is quite handy.
What I love most about Mathletics is that it really is a powerhouse of tools, reports and resources for teachers. The ease with which teachers can assign tasks, view detailed summary reports, print certificates of achievement and schedule assessments is absolutely brilliant.
Not only does Mathletics reduce teacher workload, it frees up more time for teachers to engage their students in problem-based tasks. In partnership with leading educator Dr. Marian Small, Mathletics offers a variety of open-ended Rich Learning Tasks with multiple possible outcomes for success that provide opportunities for exploration, problem solving and reasoning skills. For examples of these interactive tasks, try this Pattern Blocks task that explores concepts relating to fractions, or this Build a Numbers task that looks at proportional reasoning and place value.
Rich Learning Tasks can be accessed from the Teacher Console under "eBooks" and are marked with Dr. Marian Small's "One, Two, Infinity" logo. There you can access the teacher view, student view, videos and interactives.
Also included in the eBooks is a massive library of printable eBooks and worksheets. In fact, there are over 150 comprehensive workbooks, all available at your fingertips. As an added bonus, there are various Mathletics eBooks available in French. Bravo! All of these eBooks consist of Canadian content and can be used to introduce a new concept offline or as support or extension material.
Disclosure: This post is sponsored by 3P Learning, the makers of Mathletics. Any opinions expressed in this post are my own.
This sounds really great. Unfortunately in my family the math genes missed us lolReplyDelete

This looks good. I struggled all through school with math.ReplyDelete

Sounds like a good way to learn Math. It was the one subject that I hated in school and still do! (Judy Cowan)ReplyDelete

According to a recent report from 451 Research, three in five enterprise workloads will run in the cloud by mid-2018. If you're keeping score, that's up from two in five today. As a cloud advocate -- and considering how I make my living -- reports like this make me happy. It's more money for me.
However, as a realist, I'm compelled to provide honest commentary. The report seems overly optimistic.
According to 451 Research, there will be strong growth in specific enterprise workload categories, including data and analytics, as well as business applications. It also predicts that 12 percent of workloads will be as IaaS, double the 6 percent of today. (In addition, 451 Research predicts that 23 percent of enterprise workloads will be SaaS.)
Here's the rub: Enterprises can move only so fast. Thus, the workload migrations are based more on human and budget limitations than on technology. Most enterprises take months for the planning stages even before a single workload is moved. That's why 451 Research's predictions seem overly rosy to me.
In fact, I believe we'll see a slowdown in migrations as we run out of cloud-ready workloads. Many workloads are simply not right for the cloud, such as legacy applications and situations with odd data security or compliance issues -- another reason I believe 451 Research's predictions are unrealistically rosy.
What is my estimate? It's not 60 percent. My own guess is somewhere around 48 percent. That's actually more ambitious than it sounds, because I also don't believe 451 Research's estimate that 40 percent of workloads are already in the cloud. It's more likely around 30 percent, so getting to 48 percent by mid-2018 -- less than two years from now -- is already ambitious.
If dousing the flames of 451 Research's predictions comes across as buzzkill, remember this: I was shown the door by many Global 2000 companies when I brought up cloud only a few years ago. Whether we achieve 48 or 60 percent workload deployment to the cloud by mid-2008, we've made amazing progress. We can all be happy about that.

Cyber Stalking, Cyber Bullying, Cyber Harassment
Cyber stalking and cyber bullying are topics I wanted to discuss because it can happen to you. A cyber stalker can be anyone. You can become a victim at any time. I have been cyber stalked and I wanted to share my experiences about it.
What is cyber stalking and cyber bullying?
Cyberstalking is a crime in which the attacker harasses a victim using electronic communication, such as e-mail or instant messaging (IM), or messages posted to a website, social media pages, or a discussion group. A cyberstalker relies upon the anonymity afforded by the Internet to allow them to stalk their victim without being detected.
Often times online harassment for children are referrred to as cyber bullying and for adults as cyber stalking. Although the terms for both can be used interchangebly. It is also referred to as cyber harassment. You probably have encountered one or more internet trolls who have nothing else better to do than to put other people down so they can suck the happiness out of others. Cyber stalkers feed on terror, they want to create fear and shut you down.
It can happen to you
There are plenty of people on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and other social media websites who pretend to be your friend, like your statuses, like your photos, pretend to get to know you, be in your good graces, and then turn on you in a heartbeat when you have an opinion that differs than theirs. Cyber stalkers may start off pretending to be friendly or they may be hostile from the get go. Just because someone requests you as a friend on Facebook or follows you on Twitter, it doesn't mean they really want to be your friend. They could be snooping through your photos, reading your posts, see who you are connected to, gathering data to steal your identity or worse, to harm you mentally or physically.
Why do they stalk you?
Anything can trigger a person to hate you. It can be a photo, a status update, an announcement, a 'like', anything that the other person doesn't like or agree with. It could be an ex boyfriend/ex girlfriend, someone from your past, a former friend, a creep down the street, someone who just doesn't like you, anyone. Sometimes you aren't even aware that you did anything. Your opinions may differ from theirs. They might be jealous of you. Whatever it is, a cyber stalker preys on you. Unfortunately there are people in this world who are miserable and unhappy. They want to share that misery with anyone they can clench in their claws into and bring you down to their level. They feel powerful to say things to you online that they could never say in real life because in real life they are cowards.
What you can do if you are being cyber stalked or cyber harassed
If you know their identity, keep a record of all incidents (time, date, copies of the harassment, username). If you are under the age of 18, tell your parent or an adult you trust about any harassments/threats. If you do not feel safe to respond to your attacker, block them. You have the option to communicate that the harassment is unwanted and for the attacker to cease/stop any further communication. Keep all electronic and hard copies of any harassment. If the attacker continues to communicate with you, do not respond back. Most social media channels allow you to "Report" a user. Most also have a "Block" feature. While it won't stop the cyber stalker from creating further fake anonymous accounts, you can take further measures to protect yourself.
- Review your privacy settings
- Review your current friendslist and remove any people you do not know
- Do not accept random strangers
- Do not share your location in your statuses such as checking into places or that you are out of town etc ...
- Do not be friends with people who are friends of the cyber stalker
- If you are being harassed through a blog or website that you manage and you have access to your traffic logs, you can obtain IP addresses of everyone who accesses your website/blog. You can report the identified IP address of your cyber stalker to your internet service provider and their internet service provider. You can also ban their IP from accessing your website/blog. You can also block/ban the cyber stalker from making comments on your blog.
- You can report your cyber stalkers to your local police.
- If you are being harassed by email, you can block their email with your email provider.
- If you are being harassed by text message or by phone, block the number by going into your mobile settings. One option, get a new number and only share with people you trust.
- Report any incidents of identity theft
- If it becomes unmanagable on your social networks, it's okay to take a break.
My personal experiences with cyber harassment
In the past I've been harassed on various social networks such as Youtube, Facebook, and most recently I have been cyber stalked on Instagram. I'm not sure what people have to gain by harassing me through my blog, harassing me through email, creating fake accounts to stalk me, stealing my photos, impersonating me on social networks, stealing my Youtube videos, or stalking my friends/family/coworkers. Unfortunately there are some people in this world who just don't want to see you happy.
I really enjoy sharing content with my friends, family, and anyone who shares similar interests with me but in some cases, I have had to take a step back and focus on my safety and the safety of my friends. I understand there is a difference between being criticized versus being stalked/harassed. If you feel unsafe, that's harassment.
I hope some of these tips help you. Stay safe my friends.

For followers of Cuban music, the tragedy of the year was the death of Polo Montanez, the singer and guitarist who had become the new local hero of the guajiro country movement. He was seen as following in the tradition of Eliades Ochoa, the guitarist who always sports a guajiro cowboy hat and had already become a global star, leading the famous Quarteto Patria for a quarter of a century and playing a major role in the Buena Vista project.
Ochoa has always tried to expand his appeal, working with anyone from Charlie Musselwhite to Manu Dibango, and he continues that tradition here. This time the guest celebrities are the Los Lobos guitarist David Hidalgo and the Mavericks' singer Raul Malo, but neither they nor the classy trumpet work of Anibal Avila shift Ochoa from his centre-stage position. He eases through ballads and country dance songs while adding in his effortlessly impressive trademark guitar solos. Great stuff, as always, but just a little too easy and predictable. An established star like Ochoa needed a newcomer like Montanez snapping at his heels.

Zayn Malik removes One Direction Twitter references
Zayn Malik has removed One Direction from his Twitter page.
The 22-year-old singer quit the group in March and has now had his handle on the social networking website changed from @ZaynMalik1D to @ZaynMalik and removed his brief biography entirely.
Since making the changes, Zayn has posted just one cryptic tweet.
He wrote: "Is speech an extension to our thoughts or an image that we like to create x (sic)"
The move devastated One Direction fans, who quickly began posting with the hashtag #YouWillAlwaysBeZaynMalik1D.
One wrote: "Okay I'm even more sad than before #YouWillAlwaysBeZaynMalik1D (sic)"
Another added: "March 25th: Zayn Malik physically left One Direction
"April 30th: Zayn Malik mentally left One Direction (sic)"
After quitting the group, the hunky star remained silent on social media until 20 April, when he thanked those close to him for their loyal support.
He wrote: "Wanna say thanks to everyone that's been there for me over the last few weeks, love you all.. you know who you are x. The x is a kiss by the way ha it's not a mystery .. sorry to any confused .... (sic)"
This post was the first the 'One Thing' singer wrote since 18 March, when he tweeted about the cheating rumours that emerged after a picture surfaced of him holding hands with a girl while on tour in Thailand.
Dismissing the claims that he had cheated on his fiancee, Little Mix singer Perrie Edwards, he wrote: "I'm 22 years old... I love a girl named Perrie Edwards. And there's a lot of jealous f**** in this world I'm sorry for what it looks like x."

Back in the '70s and '80s, action movies and TV shows were full of cars flying through the air. It was glorious, and part of the fun was the audience's complicity with the filmmakers: we knew the cars folded up and fell to bits when they landed, and got replaced before they drove off. We just didn't care. There's something about a jumping car and the forbidden thrills and freedom it represents. With the advent of CGI, these crazy stunts are now kind of a lost art. You'll still occasionally see some retro-style jumping, often in a classic car, but it's rare to feel that frisson of excitement in knowing that some lunatic has actually been in the driving seat for the stunt. Here then, is a tribute to those mad men who risked life and spine for disposable redneck car-chase comedies. It's also a partial chronology of what we're loosely calling "the genre", from Bullitt to the Fast & Furious franchise: 25 of our favourite ridiculous vehicular moments from the last five decades. Where these guys were going, they didn't need roads…
Bullitt (1968)
Cars: 1968 Ford Mustang and 1968 Dodge Charger R/T
Arguably the place where an entire genre of movie car chases really starts, Bullitt doesn't quite feature the flying cars that will come later. It does, however, have several thrilling moments with all four wheels off the ground, as Steve McQueen and his adversaries negotiate the precipitous hills of San Francisco.
White Lightning (1973)
Car: 1971 Ford Custom 500
Burt Reynolds' moonshiner rogue escapes the cops with this amusingly scrappy jump from the riverbank onto a trawler. This will not be the last time Reynolds appears in this list. You'd have to wonder how closely according to plan this actually went, since the car seems barely to reach its target. Interestingly too, there are scenes that follow in which Reynolds is getting the car repaired. We won't be seeing the real world encroach like that very often.
(jump to 00:30 in trailer)
Gone In 60 Seconds (1974)
Car: 1971 Ford Mustang ("Eleanor")
A labour of love for writer/director/producer/star/stuntman H. B. Halicki, the climactic chase here takes up fully half the film, wrecking almost 100 vehicles. Star of the show is "Eleanor" making the final insane jump: she travelled 128 feet airborne and reached a height of 30 feet. Halicki, who was in the pilot's seat, compacted ten vertebrae. Nobody could quite believe that Eleanor was still driveable afterwards.
The Man With The Golden Gun (1974)
Car: 1974 AMC Hornet
One of the most astonishing stunts in the film history, notoriously dubbed with one of the worst sound effects: a slide whistle gag sound that remains a low point of the franchise. Roger Moore's James Bond, with comic relief from a holidaying Sheriff J. W. Pepper, jumps a broken bridge, turning 360 degrees in mid-air. The story is well known: it's the first stunt to be designed by computer, and driver "Bumps" Willard nailed it in one take, earning a very generous on-the-spot bonus from a relieved Cubby Broccoli. Never repeated and arguably never bettered.
Smokey And The Bandit (1977)
Car: 1977 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am
It's Burt Reynolds again, nonchalantly sailing over another broken bridge as hapless cops pile up behind him. That hidden ramp only seems to work for the Bandit – which is probably as it should be. Arguably the purest distillation of our ridiculous chosen genre.
Hooper (1978)
Car: Rocket-propelled 1978 Pontiac Trans Am
Reynolds again, but where the Bandit's jump over the creek is beautiful in its simplicity, this one is mad and festooned with bells and whistles. A loosely autobiographical film based on director Hal Needham's own stunt career, Reynolds is here playing a stuntman looking at potentially his final gig… in a rocket car…
Convoy (1978)
Car: 1973 AMC Matador
Not director Sam Peckinpah's finest hour, but it's a movie based on a song, so we can't expect too much. What it does have is this great moment where Sheriff Dirty Lyle (the late, great Ernest Borgnine) – presumably because of an early model sat nav's bad advice – takes a detour through a billboard and across a church roof.
(jump to 01:00 in video)
Mad Max (1979)
Car: 1973 Ford Falcon
Admittedly this one is more of a smash than a jump, but the aptly named Ford Falcon undeniably takes to the air here, and it does so through a caravan. An entire generation hugs its knees in joy and makes a mental note in case there's an upcoming apocalypse.
Blues Brothers (1980)
Car: 1974 Dodge Monaco
It's a cop car with cop suspension, which it'll be needing very shortly. This is one for everybody who ever fantasised about jumping an open drawbridge. The location is the 95th Street Bridge over the Calumet River in Chicago, but we wouldn't recommend you try it for real. You don't want the entire Chicago PD to end up chasing you down the street.
Used Cars (1980)
Car: 1974 Mercury Montego
Hard to remember now, but before Oscar-nominated religious dramas, motion capture, cartoon rabbits and flux capacitors, Robert Zemeckis made a rambunctious redneck car comedy with Kurt Russell. It's good too! "This had better be a great car!" prays Gerrit Graham. Debatable, but its apparently good enough to clear a freight train without injuring its human or canine passengers. The front end took a beating though.
Smokey And The Bandit II (1980)
Car: 1974 Dodge Monaco
Almost thrown away in the orgy of stunts and smashes in the Bandit sequel's "roundup" sequence, this cop-car-off-truck leap is actually a world record-holder. It wasn't the longest jump ever, but it was, at the time, apparently the longest jump by a car using its original engine (ie. not modified for the gag). The distance was 163 feet, and the only trifling injury stuntman Buddy Joe Hooker sustained was permanent spinal damage. All in a day's work.

Ferris Bueller's Day Off (1986)
Car: 1961 Ferrari 250 GT Spyder California Replica
John Hughes perfectly encapsulates the pure joy of having the wind in your hair and a car in the air, aided in no small measure by one of the rarest and most expensive cars on the planet. This is why you should never trust a parking valet with your mate's dad's incredibly expensive and meticulously restored car.
Speed Zone! (1989)
Car: 1976 Jaguar XJS [XJ27]
Essentially Cannonball Run 3, this is – we're not going to mince words – a godawful movie. But it does boast the talents of John Candy and Eugene Levy, as well as this wonderfully absurd moment of car-flinging: "Look, there's a bird nesting!". Almost certainly fatal, were it not for its obvious fakery.

The Rookie (1990)
Car: Mercedes-Benz 500 SL [R129]
Speaking of fakery… While we're not yet into the CGI era, this is perhaps the genre's high watermark of the utterly glorious and the completely ridiculous. Clint Eastwood and Charlie Sheen pilot a Merc out of the fourth floor of an exploding building. Eastwood even makes a deadpan quip mid-flight. The protracted landing – through a skylight – is awesome too. The basic stunt was achieved with a rig similar to the ones used to fling jets off aircraft carriers.
Thelma And Louise (1991)
Car: 1966 Ford Thunderbird
See Ferris Bueller, but with an added sniffle. An alternate ending on the DVD shows a longer plunge cut to a B. B. King song but the release version, freezing in mid-air, remains definitive. It manages somehow, in some ways, to seem upbeat despite what's actually happening: a thrilling triumph as well as a tragedy.
Die Hard With A Vengeance (1995)
Car: Mercedes-Benz 560 SEL [W126]
McCLAAAAAANE! There are a couple of good airborne moments with the taxi cab in Central Park, but the one that sticks in our heads from the third Die Hard is the jump off the bridge. The car behaves somewhat strangely in mid-air though, suggesting it's actually being dangled off a crane or something. That, for the record, is CHEATING.

Lethal Weapon 4 (1998)
Car: 1999 Pontiac Grand Am
Some found the final Lethal Weapon tired, but the freeway chase is an undeniable classic, culminating in a jump from the road, a drive through an office, and then another flight back onto the tarmac. No driving away unscathed either: the car gets pleasingly trashed, even bursting all four tyres on its second landing after which Riggs and Murtaugh drive on the rims.
Taxi (1998)
Car: Mercedes-Benz 500 E [W124]
Glimpsed at about 00:55 in the trailer to the left, this final jump is unusual in that it's not performed by the hero, but a trap for the bad guys. The Luc Besson-produced Taxi franchise is proof, if proof were needed, that the Americans don't have the monopoly on car carnage. This scene was replicated in the US remake with 2002 BMW M3s.
Gone In 60 Seconds (2000)
Car: 1967 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500
Here's where the CG enhancements start to really kick in: a sad moment where real ridiculous car stunts truly become a dying art. Compare this with the Flight of Eleanor in the original Gone in 60 Seconds and tell us which you think is the more thrilling. For our money this one is cool, but weightless.
2 Fast 2 Furious (2003)
Car: 1969 Chevrolet Camaro
Great, cheesy moment, but again with the CG. We've seen before that it's actually possible for a stuntie to jump a car onto a boat with no digital trickery, but the distance involved here means some graphical stretching is in order. We went for this scene over the earlier street race, because that first jump really does just look like a videogame cut-scene.
Dukes Of Hazzard (2005)
Car: 1969 Dodge Charger
Limiting ourselves to films as we have been, we've obviously had to leave out the car jump ur-text that is TV's The Dukes of Hazzard. All hail the movie remake then, because while it's not very good, it does feature this truly glorious old-school moment where Bo and Luke hit the freeway with their trademark unorthodox methods. The end credits bloopers show what actually happened to the car before dextrous editing – as is traditional – sent it on its way unharmed. Yeee, and indeed, haaa.
Batman Begins (2005)
Car: Wayne Industries Tumbler (prototype)
This scene is obviously not without a smidgeon of FX enhancement, but the Nolan creed is Everything As Practically As Possible and, incredibly, his Batmobile could pretty much perform as shown. We'll hand over to Special Effects Supervisor Chris Corbould, who told Empire last summer: "We spent a lot of time jumping it to see where it broke, strengthen that part, jump it again… We kept finding the weak links along the chain until we could more-or-less do anything with it. In the end I think our longest jump was about 70 feet, at 60mph. And it landed and drove off…"
Transporter 3 (2008)
Car: Audi A8 D3
As unflappable as ever, as always slightly annoyed, Jason Statham plants his Audi on the roof of a train, in a gag only slightly marred by the clunkily animated landing. Only a quick shot, but enough to spoil the majesty of the preceding seconds. See also the car-bomb removal scene from Transporter 2, wherein Statham flips a car upside down underneath a giant magnet to remove an explosive device, which mostly took place inside a computer but which is so bat-shit insane that it deserves a place here.
Wanted (2008)
Car: 1966 Ford Mustang (using 1986 Chevrolet Corvette as ramp)
A lot of you might have gone for the Viper off the bus – and that would be fair enough. Timur Bekmambetov's bullet-time aesthetic means both flights of vehicular fancy are equally wild and CG glossy, but we went for the assassination scene because hey, it's a Mustang. And it's flipping upside down so its driver can shoot someone through their sunroof. It also takes some damage when it lands, which demonstrates that at least bits of the sequence were stunted for real.
Fast Five (2011)
Car: 1966 Ford GT40
Two for your buck here, as the spiffy RCR-40 replica first exits a moving train through a gaping hole in its side and then goes all Thelma & Louise into a deep gorge. You'll be glad to know that Vin Diesel and Paul Walker both emerge unharmed. The poor car… not so much.

Indulgent soak in a roll top bath
Jaynewoo, Sheffield, United Kingdom
Maureen and Peter are excellent friendly hosts, with a wealth of knowledge about the area. Their tips and recommendations were a big help to us. We were in the Church View room, full of character and a comfy bed. The roll top bath was lovely. Only a couple of minutes walk and you are in the centre of Alnwick, with access to the castle, it was great not to have to use the car.
Superb B and B

This lovely b and b reminds you why hotels are often so dull. The location is brilliant for the area, the house is lovely and the warm welcome very appreciated. Maureen and Peter offer friendly hospitality and beautifully furnished accommodation, with hand-picked pieces that often have a family or local connection. The breakfasts were fantastic and catered for all tastes.The hosts' warm and friendly welcome make it a memorable stay. Highly recommended. Tasty cake when you arrive, too!

I spent 10 nights with Maureen and Peter as I was visiting Alnwick for the music festival. They both made me so welcome, were so attentive, kind and thoughtful, I wanted to move in, and become a permanent resident. Lovely food, lovely surroundings, lovely people........... well, what more can I say but "JUST LOVELY",
Delightful B&B
Ann M, Arnold, United Kingdom
As in previous reviews of this gorgeous quirky little B& B we wouldn't hesitate to recommend it - or to return!! Peter & Maureen are friendly & welcoming & do absolutely everything to make you feel at home from the minute you walk in to be greeted by a cup of tea & home made fruit cake !! Our room overlooked the church across the road & we loved the photos on the walls( you can read more about them in the info guide in the bedroom !) There were all sort of lovely touches- from the assorted pictures & ornaments to the pretty china, silver napkin holders and delicious food ( Peters rhubarb & ginger & plums in honey just two of the highlights!) Really cannot praise this homely B & B enough - we will def be back ! 😄

Vie-Long started making badger hair shaving brushes in 1940. Nowadays grandson's founder continues making horse shaving brushes using the same traditional methods.
Best Badger shaving brushes are made with finest hair that pure badger ones. Hair length is longer and colour is lighter than pure badger hair. Knots are more densely filled. Also, a noticeable difference on Vie-Longshaving brushes is the finishing on the top. Whilst Best Badger has a regular finish on the top pure badger hair is irregular. That means that all hairs have exactly the same length making these brushes significantly softer than pure badger ones. Bulb shape is given manually to each shaving brush.

Overall Length - 102mm.
Handle Length - 48mm.
