System Center 2012 SP1 also integrates with the last week's announced Windows Azure Virtual Machines enabling you to:
- Move on-premise virtual machines to Azure using App Controller.
- Manage Azure virtual machines from your on-premises System Center using App Controller and Orchestrator using the new Azure Integration Pack.
Global Service Monitor, is a new cloud enabled capability that extends the application monitoring in System Center 2012 to enable you to add "outside-in" testing to incorporate a true reflection of users' experience of your web site or web application.
To evaluate System Center 2012 SP1 with GSM, sign up for the customer preview of GSM.
Hosted Clouds: System Center 2012 helps you optimize your organization's use of both private cloud and Windows Azure resources through the App Controller component.
"System Center 2012 SP1 extends App Controller's capabilities to include cloud resources offered by Hosting Service Providers, giving you the option of consuming a wide range of custom and commodity IaaS cloud services from your Service Provider. For Service Providers, System Center 2012 SP1 adds the new "Service Provider Foundation" (SPF) API. SPF is an extensible OData REST API that can be easily integrated with the hoster's customer portal and is automatically integrated with customers' on-premises App Controller," Microsoft explained.
Also, available for download is the new Forefront Identity Manager 2010 R2 that adds many new capabilities to help organizations handle the growing complexity of managing identity and permissions across heterogeneous systems.
FIM 2010 R2 addresses the complexities of identity management by offering:
- Self-service identity management for your users
- Automated identity lifecycle and role management across heterogeneous platforms for your administrators
- A rich policy framework for enforcing corporate security policies and detailed audit capabilities
Improved Self-service Password Reset: Now with an improved enrollment process, deploying Self Service Password Reset (SSPR) is easier than ever. "We've also extended the password reset portal to work with many of the most popular web browsers available (including Internet Explorer, of course!), and now support extranet-based reset experiences as well. Together, the browser-based reset and extranet support mean that your users can resolve password issues wherever they are, from nearly any device," Microsoft stated.
Role Based Access Control: As part of the FIM 2010 R2 release, the BHOLD software is extended to all FIM 2012 R2 customers.
"Microsoft BHOLD Suite allows customers to easily define and manage access based on user roles. Roles are mapped to multiple permissions across many systems, simplifying access privileges from the user perspective," the Redmond company explained.
"This capability also helps ensure that access rights are maintained over time - even during position, location, and responsibility changes. Once in place, the BHOLD Suite can be used to help demonstrate compliance with organizational and industry/governmental regulations, saving valuable time."
FIM 2010 R2 also offers improved functionality including:
- FIM 2012 R2 now leverages the System Center Service Manager Data Warehouse to store and display reports. "Since the System Center Service Manager Data Warehouse is built around SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS), reports may be run through that interface as well," Microsoft said.
- To more easily connect your third-party business applications, the new WebServices Connector available on the Microsoft Download Center. "The WebServices Connector is used to connect to SAP ECC 5/6, Oracle PeopleSoft, and Oracle eBusiness. It is an optional component for FIM 2010 Update 2 and FIM 2010 R2 and can be used on either version."
Microsoft .NET Framework Repair Tool released over the weekend, detects and tries to fix some frequently occurring issues with the setup of or with updates to the Microsoft .NET Framework.
"This tool troubleshoots common issues with the setup of or with updates to Microsoft .NET Framework setup installation," Microsoft stated. Additionally, this tool tries to resolve these issues by applying known fixes or by repairing the installed product.

Also, available today is a new set of templates for you to begin your architectural discussions around Windows Azure. With new offerings coming every six months from the Windows Azure team, the templates provide a set of technologies that fit common scenarios.
Clint Edmunson writes, "In this series going to offer up some architectural recipes to help visualize solutions to the common scenarios we've identified since Azure's launch. These are by no means the only solutions you an solve with Azure or the only way to address these scenarios but hopefully they will provide you with a high level way to visualize your solutions on the Azure platform."
The diagram you see right under is "designed to provide a layered architectural overview of the developer and infrastructure services currently available in Azure and will be the master template for the entire series," Edmunson adds.

Most companies have some fairly bizzare terms and conditions preventing users from doing things that they would never have even dreamed of. Most of these terms and conditions are drawn up by teams of lawyers desperate to cover every possible eventuality.
While reading the terms and conditions of Google Product Search I found that Google won't allow people to sell body parts or human remains using the system.
Body parts
Posting is not permitted for the promotion of body parts or human remains.
If these terms didn't exist would we see results like the one below?
Google isn't the only Internet company concerned about the sale of human remains & body parts. eBay has similar T&C's and goes into much more detail in their Human Remains and Body Parts Policy.
Human Remains and Body Parts Policy
Humans, the human body, or any human body parts are not permitted on eBay. Items that contain human hair (such as lockets) as well as skulls and skeletons that are used for medical purposes may be listed on eBay. eBay does not permit the sale of Native American skulls, bones or other Native American grave-related items, as the sale of such items may violate federal law.
Violations of this policy may result in a range of actions, including:
- Listing cancellation
- Limits on account privileges
- Account suspension
- Forfeit of eBay fees on cancelled listings
- Loss of PowerSeller status
Examples of prohibited items include, but are not limited to:
- organs
- bone
- blood
- waste
- sperm
- eggs
Sellers may not include such items as a gift, prize, or giveaway in connection with an item listed on eBay.
My question is would people really start using Google Product Search and eBay to sell human body parts if these rules didn't exist?

Cypress Hill Coming Back With New Album, Label
"We're mixing right now," B-Real, who just released his first solo album, "Smoke N Mirrors," tells Billboard.com. He describes the rap troupe's new music as "gritty. It's aggressive. It's like hip-hop straight-up. We just felt like we needed to go back to that raw, gritty hip-hop sound but try to find a way to bridge it with what's going on now."
B-Real says Cypress Hill worked with pals Everlast, Evidence and The Alchemist on the as-yet-untitled album, but he didn't anticipate many other guests. "We don't really do a lot of collaborations in Cypress. We keep it in house." The group members have been mostly working on their own projects since 2004's "Til Death Do Us Part" and a split with Columbia Records, their longtime label home.
B-Real says he's been working on "Smoke N Mirrors" for the better part of three years, coming up with 40 songs -- 15 of which are on the album, the rest used for three "The Gunslinger" mixtapes he released between 2005-2007.
"It was different," he says of working solo on "Smoke N Mirrors," which features from Snoop Dogg, Xzibit, Buckshot, Damian Marley, Too $hort, Kurpt, Cypress Hill mate Sen Dog and B-Real's protege Young De. "We're used to working with each other (in Cypress Hill), bouncing ideas off each other. This one I had to carry on my back, on my own. But I like challenges, so it wasn't that bad at all. I don't really get periods where I can't come up with an idea that I want to use. What needs to click will click."
B-Real plans to do some solo shows to support "Smoke N Mirrors" and also hopes to develop some new artists on his Audio Hustlaz label, concentrating first on Young De after finishing the Cypress Hill album. He also sees the possibility of Cypress Hill showcasing some of the members' solo material when it tours to promote the new album.
"Yeah, there's plenty of music to be done," B-Real says. "So we can get out there and pull off the live show at any point and maybe incorporate some of our solo work in there. That would be dope."

Absolutely! I love Mike's writing, he really knows how to tell a story...
When Cynthia and Allen finally pulled together there near the end....they were at odds with each other so much in this story...so I was like YES! Finally!
I am neutral on this narrator...he was fine...but not Awesome.....
Ohhhhh this would be an exciting movie!!!
** I was given a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review **
I honestly love Mike's writing, this story was really interesting...Cynthia and Allen have a rocky marriage and one night Mike follows Cynthia who WAS about to cheat on him...well she gets attacked and he rescues her and uh oh....wrong place, wrong time! The attacker who Allen presumes dead, and tries to dispose of and ends up burying him alive...starts to stalk this couple and makes an arrangement to stop by every Tuesday to be Cynthia's play Husband...he leaves detailed instructions on food, dress and conversation....well things get really complicated...and actually really exciting...I was on the edge of my seat by the end...and am a little freaked out that the bad guy is still out there somewhere...well in book land....lol I RECOMMEND!!!!!

Good news for the 170 million people worldwide who have hepatitis C—help might be a cup of green tea away. A flavonoid found in the potent beverage inhibits the hepatitis C virus from entering liver cells, a new study in the journal Hepatology found. That's particularly helpful for the many patients who don't respond to standard treatment, as well as people undergoing liver transplants because of the disease, who have a high risk of being reinfected.
And that's just the latest in a long list of the drink's benefits. Put the kettle on now, and check out a few ways green tea helps your health. Green tea can:

- Bring down your heart disease and cancer risk. Green tea's powerful antioxidants have been found to reduce lung cancer, prostate cancer, skin cancer, stroke and heart attack risks. To add an extra boost, squeeze in a lemon — the vitamin C helps your body absorb more of the antioxidants.
- Lower your cholesterol and blood pressure. Three cups a day gives you the antioxidants you need to bring down these numbers.
- Help you lose weight faster. Drink a cup before your workout and you might boost your fat burn. Studies suggest that the caffeine frees fatty acids so you can burn fat more easily. The tea's antioxidants might also work together with the caffeine to help you burn more calories.
- Prevent arthritis. Imbibing green tea daily might help keep your joints healthy, preliminary research suggests.
- Keep allergies at bay. Japanese researchers found that the compound EGCG (the same one that might fight hepatitis C) found in green tea may help stop your body from reacting to allergens like pollen, pet dander and dust.

The entire property is very charming & peaceful. The room was much more than we expected in terms of size & decor. The staff was very pleasant and helpful. We enjoyed the delicious breakfast. One block of the main street, it was an enjoyable walk to all things in Yountville.
The only thing that needs to be changed are the pillows-for me they were much too flat- which lead to a neck ache. That being said, we'd still return for another stay.

We're continuing our exploration of the Russian underground this week, as live double-act Doyeq take a turn under the Data Transmission Spotlight.
With experience in the electronic music scene dating back to 1997, Moscow-based Sergey Kulikov and Vitaliy Bragin joined forces as Doyeq back in 2009. Through continual experimentation, the pair developed their distinct minimal and deep techno sound, focusing around a "powerful groove" and "dub-atmosphere".
The duo have offered up production work via the likes of Slowdance, Pro-Tez, Blumenbeat, StudioR, MOSHItaka and Subspiele, but their exclusive Spotlight Mix is actually made up entirely of unreleased material. Unfortunately this means there's no tracklist, but in light of how special it makes the mix, we thought you guys wouldn't mind!

Hi guys! I thought since I kind of was itching to write for a bit that I would make a little post talking about saying goodbye, and especially saying goodbye as an au pair.
If you haven't been an au pair you're probably wondering why I make it seem like it's different, but trust me, it is. Because as an au pair, you have to go through goodbyes a lot. First of all, to your own family before you leave. That goodbye is one of the strangest things, because you're all excited about the adventure that awaits you, and so are they, but you still have to say goodbye to each other. You're going off to live in another house, and they are going back to your house that now has an empty room that used to be well, yours. You know they can come visit, and that you will be facetiming regularly, but it's still going to be different. The thing is though, that you get used to it. You get used to being gone, and they get used to not having you around.
The thing with making friends as an au pair is that there is no exact date when you will all leave together. Sometimes you meet someone who has been there for months already, who's getting ready to go home. Sometimes you meet people that arrive around the same time as you, but who will leave early because of a problem, or will stay longer than you because that's what they want to do. We're all on our own personal journey. You get very close to the people you meet while you're away. I don't know how many times I've had discussions with my friends of how it doesn't seem like we've only known each other for a year. This experience is so intense, and for a short time these people become incredibly important to you. You need them. Then suddenly, it's time to say goodbye. If you're lucky, they live in the same country as you. You can see each other on weekends. You can keep in touch and support each other. But it's so different from before. And that is really sad. If you want to keep the strong bond you made, you both need to work on it. It's so easy to just - lose it.
I've said goodbye to three wonderful people now. Emmy, who's already back in Sweden. I already miss having her around. Jordan, who will be staying in the UK for a while, but who I won't be able to see again before I leave. Louise, who I spent the day with today in London as a little last hurrah before she leaves for a roadtrip. These three have been very important to me during my year here. They have made me laugh even when things were tough. They have understood me, and stood by me. I will never forget how much their friendship has meant to me.
Saying goodbye to your host family is probably the strangest one. I've been through it already, with my American one. You go from living with them, being part of the family, to suddenly being gone. You're replaced by someone else, a person who takes over the room you've slept in for the past year. Takes over the care of "your" children. You go from talking to them every day to occasionally talking to them when it works for you both. You're still part of their family, but at the same time you're not. If you haven't been through it, you will never truly understand what it's like. The kids do kind of become your kids, and suddenly you're just not going to see them anymore. They are going to continue to grow up, and you'll be watching it happen from the sidelines. It's a very strange feeling.
I would say I'm getting kind of good at goodbyes. I don't know if that's a good thing or not. I guess I've kind of just accepted it? That this is how it is. Just because you have to say goodbye now, doesn't mean it's forever. You will be able to see them again. It won't be the same as before, but that's how life is, isn't it? I still have about a week left until I need to say my last goodbyes.
If you're reading this far, you should send a message to someone you haven't talked to in a while. Keep the flame alive, you know? It could turn out to be the best thing you've done today.

Northrop N-63
VTOL Turboprop Convoy Fighter Concept (1950)
About the Design
In the years immediately after World War II, the U.S. Navy became concerned that its supply convoys remained highly vulnerable to enemy air attack. It asked America's major aircraft manufacturers to submit proposals for a tail-sitting VTOL fighter that could be launched off the back of cargo ships to provide combat air support.
Among those entering the competition was Northrop Aviation, whose N-63 featured counter-rotating turboprops, wing-tip weapons pods, a large dorsal tail and rudder, and wings positioned at a severe dihedral.
Although a fascinating design, the N-63 ultimately lost out to Lockheed's XFV-1 "Salmon" and Convair's XFV-1 "Pogo."
About the Kit
This 1:72 kit was produced exclusively for Fantastic Plastic by Anigrand Craftswork of Hong Kong. It featured option tail cones for the landed or in-flight configurations, as well as a clear resin canopy and pilot figure.
This kit was built from an original issue.

Thank you so much Alex for being such a great help to me in the Sheen Falls Kenmare recently. It really means a lot to know that when you are working with someone like Alex & who knows the wedding industry so well, that she is always that one step ahead! Makes the day so much more enjoyable and the day runs so smoothly. See you again soon. Majella x
by Trish and Eric O'Neill on Fri, 11th December, 2015
I hired Alexandra as our couples assistant as I was worried about things running smoothly on the day. However, as it happened, having her help me in the run up to the big day was massively beneficial. Being a bit of a control freak, I needed someone who understood what I wanted and someone I could trust. Not only was she a huge help with the organisation, she was also amazing at problem solving as well as crisis management! She counselled, advised, comforted and consoled and went above and beyond for my husband and I. We are so grateful for all her help and cannot recommend her highly enough. Mr&Mrs O Neill

A/N - First of all... I'm so so so so so so (times 1000) sorry about getting so late with this update. I swear, every week I would open the folder and stare at it thinking 'come on.. You can beat this writer's block'.. So there's good news and bad news.
Good News - I have updated the chapter I promised you since last year (hangs head in shame)
Bad News - The story took an unexpected turn..and... um.. don't kill me :/
Disclaimer - I do not own Wizards of Waverly place.
His fingers were shaking. That's the first thing she remembers. Everything else came after, but what really struck her was his quivering hand as he lifted her t-shirt roughly to touch her bare skin underneath. She remembers his hot breath against her throat as he pushed against her, his chest flattening hers and her hands examining the very person that is Justin. His shoulders, his back, his arms. Her fingers finally tangling in his dark strands pulling him closer to her. She remembers the tingle of impatient need she felt in the pit of her stomach as he used his other hand to lift her leg against him, her knee bending across his hips as he moved against her, his fingers rubbing teasing circles across her thigh. It was a never ending kiss as he bruised her lips like he was branding her; making her his. She did the same, biting his lower lip unknowingly. And that was when they stopped.
The look on her roommate's faces are priceless. It's a cross between a 'jaw drop surprised' look, and a 'I knew this was so going to happen, but the visuals are so much better than what I imagined' look. She feels the need to roll her eyes and 'Psh' them away. Instead she opts to slowly disentangling herself from Justin, who is just too frozen in fear to react.
One thing she thanks God for, not telling her girlfriends that the person she was carelessly making out for the last - oh I don't know - five minutes just happen to share her parents. Through a blood line. The realization brings a flush to her face, and they probably think it's embarrassment, not shame. No one says anything. And with barely a glance her way, he leaves.
Her roommates wait until the door closes softly behind him, before they round on her.
The story is this. Justin Finkle, a cousin, of a cousin, of a cousin of Harper's (twice removed) has a girlfriend who keeps breaking up with him only to get back together with him (it's the closest she can come to the truth without bursting into tears in front of her roommates). It's not like they like each other or anything, but these things just keep on happening, and it is not any of her roommates' business. However, after living with her for so long, they have built a monstrous 'we can ignore the warnings of Alex Russo banner' and they don't drop the subject (sometimes she wishes she could just magic their mouths shut). They follow her around the whole apartment, and bug her continuously with questions that should be banned from teen magazines. What is he like? Did he follow you here? Is the relationship with the girlfriend over? Is he a free man now? Why was he acting so weird? Why are you acting so weird? It comes to a point where she just simply can't anymore. She glares at them, grabs her jacket and slams the door shut behind her, finding the noise extremely therapeutic.
She's on her way to walk this whole thing off, to walk Justin off; when she sees him. He's seated on the floor next to the staircase, his head in his hands. The sight is so familiar, that it hurts. She must have made some sort of noise, because his head snaps up, and she realizes that he had been waiting for her. He stares at her for a moment, and her first impulse is to bolt.
It takes him a while to slowly stand up, his eyes never leaving hers. He moves cautiously towards her, and Alex feel the need to run so strongly, she clenches her fists. When he's finally close enough, he opens his mouth to say...something. But all that comes out is her name. He says it softly, cautiously; and it takes her whole being not to picture him whispering her name like that against her skin. He takes another step closer, and before she knows it, his hand snakes across the back of her neck, and he leans forward and kisses her. It's short and soft, and shouldn't mean anything. But it means so much to her, that little touch. She leans in and her fingers somehow curl themselves around the front of his shirt. It takes massive strength for her to let him go. He finally releases her and takes an extra step back, and she finds herself cursing him for thinking of that first.
"Can we talk about this? Properly?" He clears his throat to rid the huskiness. "Maybe in public?"
She nods, her heart's sinking a bit, but she understands. He makes a move to leave but she grabs his hand, her fingers squeezing lightly when he tries to let go. She watches his adams apple bob as he swallows a protest before he leads them down the stairs.
She nearly laughs. Usually, they fight. It's not unusual that a family dinner that has it's primary contenders, end with their parents yelling at each other. One parent always takes the side of the eldest, while the other usually takes the side of the middle child. And she prides herself in manipulating her father to such an extent that sometimes, she's just too perfect and could do no wrong. She and Justin, simply sitting and not insulting or yelling at each other? It was like an alternative universe.
"What is it?"
She looks up. "What?"
"You're smiling," he says it awkwardly as he adds a fifth tea spoon of sugar into his barely sipped coffee.
She suddenly doesn't find this situation funny anymore. Whenever she leans forward, he leans back. When she reaches for her cup, he pulls his hands back and looks away from her. Really, he's just pissing her off. "Shall we discuss this thing then?"
He chooses to ignore her tone. "I..er...I did some research."
She snorts. "That's never a good sign."
He glares at her before he sighs tiredly. He seems to do that a lot when he's around her. "There are a few memory modification spells that could work." He ignores it when she spits out her latte and sputters. "It's not too difficult just-"
"Ancient and disproved?"
He glares at her again. "Yes. But I'm sure with a few changes it'll work fine."
"And what happens if it doesn't work? You turn into a vegetable?" she says mockingly.
The quick shift of his eyes gives her an eerie feeling.
The first time it happens, it really shouldn't have.
Justin shows up with a monstrous pile of books that makes her look behind him to see if he had an army of big, burly men lugging it up the ridiculous amount of stairs. He lacks the men, and she's kind of impressed. Who knew the scrawny teenager could actually do manual work?
They spend hours sitting at the opposite sides of her modest apartment, reading. Actually, Justin read. She found it far more entertaining to try to create a slingshot that could haul a five hundred page book easily across the room. The way she sees it, she's no physics major, but the work she was doing was going to help man kind. Justin however, didn't see it like that. After getting hit in the face four times by a wayward pillow, he then proceeded to take her invention and toss it out of the window. Someone was not happy when a gift from above hit him squarely on the head. It was all Justin's fault. Obviously.
It takes another few minutes of 'Justin' whines from her and 'Alex' orders from him before she decides to give up on the pretense and kiss him. It's not that she wanted to or anything. He was just there, and she really wanted to kiss someone since she saw this sappy movie the night before. She doesn't expect him to push her away, but he does. And with wide eyes, he storms out. She recognizes the look just before he closes the door behind him. He wanted her.
The second time it happens, it's completely and utterly and totally his fault. He made her kiss him.
After forgiving her (even though she didn't ask to be forgiven - sheesh), he comes in all business-like and demands they concentrate. He's so...tightly wound. And it irritates her. Yes, she's the trouble maker, and yes, she cannot say no to a challenge when it is staring at her in the face. But the urge to undo him was just too much to bear. She wanted to unhinge him and make him less Justin and more Alex (lets face it, the world would be so much more fun then). So she did the only logical thing she could think of that stemmed from the recesses of her mind.
She slaps him.
In her defence, she hit his face with a pillow and his expression was priceless. After a moment of stunned silence, he snaps at her for being juvenile. And she snaps back, calling him a liar. On a completely unrelated note, he might have compared her to his 'girlfriend' - yuck - and she might have gotten angry and hit him (just saying, completely unrelated).
They have a big blow out, as expected. Then he storms out, as definitely expected. Seriously, could anyone be more predictable?
But then fifteen minutes later, he comes bearing a chocolate croissant and apologizes (also predictable but, whatever). And he's so sincere and so sweet and attentive and she can't help it. She kisses him. It's a light peck on the lips, nothing much to get a priest and nun to break up their little shindig. But just as she pulls away, his eyes darken ever so slightly and he pulls her towards him. Their lips meet in the middle.
She's not a fan of Valentine's Day and corny movies like 'The Notebook', but at the moment, she might have called herself a romantic sap.
The third time it happens, he's saying goodbye.
It's about time he goes back to the big U.S. of A without her and with... the random chick he had broken up with but who couldn't change her flight (apparently). She's not jealous. Not at all. Even when he confronts her with a voodoo doll she may or may not have planted to freak the blonde out. Seriously, it's not funny or anything (snort).
But the thing is, he's not angry at her. He smiles and hugs her, and she would have mocked him for having tears in his eyes had her own eyes decided not to be lame and act all girly. It's a hazard - these hormones- there should be a spell to get rid of them somewhere.
It's the first time he kisses her in forever and she holds him tight because she knows that at some point she'll have to let go. Leave it to Justin to leave everything until the last minute and make it all dramatic.
If anyone asks, she didn't ask Justin to spend the night, and Justin didn't agree after a minute of hesitation and five minutes of her pulling his sleeve.
If anyone asks, they didn't sleep in the same bed together or kiss or cuddle.
And if anyone asks... it wasn't the most perfect night of her life.
Only thing is, it was.
It takes her exactly three more weeks before she finds the book he had tried to make her read. She decides it's a complete waste of time as she flips through it. For one thing, there's no pictures, and then there was the issue of too many words. It seemed annoying, really.
She decides to stow it away just in case. It was his book after all, he might want it back someday.
The night before she leaves Italy, Harper calls her. She had seen Justin ring shopping! It's not supposed to a big deal. Really. They agreed they weren't seeing each other, and he said that he was done with the blonde. Only, it seemed he wasn't.
She hangs up on Harper before she could say anything more.
It takes her a while but she finds the book. It was hidden behind a stack of other things she never really used, including a feather boa. She finds the page she's looking for easily before she sits on her bed cross-legged. If anyone had seen her, they would have called her impulsive and wrong. But if they really knew her, they would know that that was who she is. She's impulsive, and she would never apologize for it. And if she's wrong, she would never admit it.
Before doing anything else, she takes the form she was supposed to send out the day before and ticks the box she hadn't intended to tick. She then glances once more at the empty room that was her home for a few months before she traces the words she had refused to recite all those weeks ago, with her finger. Closing her eyes, she says them softly, and feels the heat behind her eyelids. It takes a moment before she blinks and looks down in her lap, wondering vaguely why she was sitting on her bed instead of packing.
Her roommate popped her head in with the cordless phone in one hand. "Call for you, it's Justin." Megan grinned. "I think he's buying you a gift. He asked me for your ring size," she said snickering.
Alex stared at her roommate blankly before she asked coolly, "who's Justin?"
Because seriously, she's never heard that name before in her life. Alex Russo is single after all, and happily so.
A/N 2 - I am perfectly okay with ending the story here. And maybe someone more talented than I am could maybe do a sequel if they have the idea for it (looks at Not Just A Nerd). But I warn you, if you want me to continue, it may take some time. Also, the way it's going, aleja1, you might be right about this being more than what I intended it to be (which was a two shot after all).Gosh I'm horrible at updating :s

For writers today, an online presence can mean the difference between success and failure. But if we're not doing it right, we may be our own worst enemy. Today I want to share 10 ways you may be wrecking your social media presence.
So proud of me!! Out of your list, the scheduler is the only one I'm not doing! (jussssst can't let go of that control...)
One exception to the don't over-promote myself, though, is my month long blog blitz release celebration! Each post this month, while a "regular" blog feature, has the banner and heading for my release. Otherwise, I probably don't promote me own self enough! LOL
I wonder what is meant by the 5 to 1 rule. I do a lot of sharing for other authors, other contests, and just fun stuff from others. But I don't do a lot of posts about what I'm doing, what I'm thinking, etc. What should be in the 5? :)
As always, great guidelines, especially for those of us who are beginning to build online presence.ReplyDelete
Oh yes, the game invitations! Ugh!
I know I need to work on consistency. I'll post, schedule tweets, update my blog for a big and then forget to do it when I'm involved in something else. I need to make a blog post schedule and stick to it. By the way, your recommendation to schedule tweets through Hootsuite, etc. has helped me so much! Thanks for that!
Great post, Edie!

MATLAB Newsgroup
I have the following code working, but I like Matlab's cool indexing syntax so much - and I wouldn't mind if my code ran faster and could show off to my professor and fellow students - that I want to make it work the Matlab array indexing way. You know, where you don't have to use loops to loop through a whole array. So how could I re-write this loop in a more Matlab style:
for ii=1:throws
if sign(darts(ii,2))==sign(darts(ii,3)) && abs(darts(ii,2))<=abs(darts(ii,3))
Basically, I need to do two comparisons of the cells in column 2 and 3. If I had to only compare the values of column 2 to column three, I could easily do this:
Ditto if I only had to compare the signs:
But I have to see if column 2 is the same sign as and smaller magnitude than column 3 (if column 2 is between the curve's y-value, in column 3, and the x-axis).
Math note not necessary to help with the code: this is a student simulation of Monte Carlo integrating: the curve's y-value is stored in column 3 and the random points are stored in column 2. I compare the points in column 2 to the value of the curve. The number of points below the curve, divided by the number of random points (darts) "thrown" times the total area of the box surrounding the domain and range, gives the area under the curve over the domain (got that!). But to compensate for when the curve is below the x-axis, I have to really find when the random point is between the curve and 0 - and that's what I'm trying to do.
P.S. I thought of the following while typing up this post. It seems less kludgey and uses no loops, but actually ran slower! What do you experts think?
darts(:,6)=(darts(:,4) & darts(:,5)) .* sign(darts(:,3));

Hi Walter. Who are you? You're answering everyone's questions tonight.
Thanks for that answer. It's really good. I got the idea you were trying to impart, but I had to switch it around some. I'm not sure what you meant by using the result of the logical & as an array index of d3s. I think you meant to multiply the final result by d3s to get the sign back. Really cool! Here's what I ended up with:
d3s = sign(darts(:,3));
hits = sum(d3s.*(sign(darts(:,2))==d3s & abs(darts(:,2)) <= abs(darts(:,3))));
This compares the signs of column 2 and 3, and logically ands it with a comparison of the magnitude of the values in col 2 & 3. If they agree, the result is a 1, which is again multiplied by the sign of column 3 (in the form of d3s) to get the correct sign back.
But this runs much slower than my looping solution. I guess sometimes elegant isn't always faster. Oh well. It was a good programming lesson. Thanks,

First Human Head Transplant Could Happen in Two Years - Health - 25 February 20
A radical plan for transplanting a head onto someone else's body is set to be announced. But is such ethically sensitive surgery even feasible?
IT'S heady stuff. The world's first attempt to transplant a human head will be launched this year at a surgical conference in the US. The move is a call to arms to get interested parties together to work towards the surgery.
The idea was first proposed in 2013 by Sergio Canavero of the Turin Advanced Neuromodulation Group in Italy. He wants to use the surgery to extend the lives of people whose muscles and nerves have degenerated or whose organs are riddled with cancer. Now he claims the major hurdles, such as fusing the spinal cord and preventing the body's immune system from rejecting the head, are surmountable, and the surgery could be ready as early as 2017.
Canavero plans to announce the project at the annual conference of the American Academy of Neurological and Orthopaedic Surgeons (AANOS) in Annapolis, Maryland, in June. Is society ready for such momentous surgery? And does the science even stand up?
The first successful head transplant, in which one head was replaced by another, was carried out in 1970. A team led by Robert White at Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine in Cleveland, Ohio, transplanted the head of one monkey onto the body of another. They didn't attempt to join the spinal cords, though, so the monkey couldn't move its body, but it was able to breathe with artificial assistance. The monkey lived for nine days until its immune system rejected the head. Although few head transplants have been carried out since, many of the surgical procedures involved have progressed. "I think we are now at a point when the technical aspects are all feasible," says Canavero.
This month, he published a summary of the technique he believes will allow doctors to transplant a head onto a new body (Surgical Neurology International, doi.org/2c7). It involves cooling the recipient's head and the donor body to extend the time their cells can survive without oxygen. The tissue around the neck is dissected and the major blood vessels are linked using tiny tubes, before the spinal cords of each person are cut. Cleanly severing the cords is key, says Canavero.
The recipient's head is then moved onto the donor body and the two ends of the spinal cord – which resemble two densely packed bundles of spaghetti – are fused together. To achieve this, Canavero intends to flush the area with a chemical called polyethylene glycol, and follow up with several hours of injections of the same stuff. Just like hot water makes dry spaghetti stick together, polyethylene glycol encourages the fat in cell membranes to mesh.
Next, the muscles and blood supply would be sutured and the recipient kept in a coma for three or four weeks to prevent movement. Implanted electrodes would provide regular electrical stimulation to the spinal cord, because research suggests this can strengthen new nerve connections.
When the recipient wakes up, Canavero predicts they would be able to move and feel their face and would speak with the same voice. He says that physiotherapy would enable the person to walk within a year. Several people have already volunteered to get a new body, he says.
The trickiest part will be getting the spinal cords to fuse. Polyethylene glycol has been shown to prompt the growth of spinal cord nerves in animals, and Canavero intends to use brain-dead organ donors to test the technique. However, others are sceptical that this would be enough. "There is no evidence that the connectivity of cord and brain would lead to useful sentient or motor function following head transplantation," says Richard Borgens, director of the Center for Paralysis Research at Purdue University in West Lafayette, Indiana.
If polyethylene glycol doesn't work, there are other options Canavero could try. Injecting stem cells or olfactory ensheathing cells – self-regenerating cells that connect the lining of the nose to the brain – into the spinal cord, or creating a bridge over the spinal gap using stomach membranes have shown promise in helping people walk again after spinal injury. Although unproven, Canavero says the chemical approach is the simplest and least invasive.
But what about the prospect of the immune system rejecting the alien tissue? Robert White's monkey died because its head was rejected by its new body. William Mathews, chairman of the AANOS, says he doesn't think this would be a major problem today. He says that because we can use drugs to manage the acceptance of large amounts of tissue, such as a leg or a combined heart and lung transplant, the immune response to a head transplant should be manageable. "The system we have for preventing immune rejection and the principles behind it are well established."
Canavero isn't alone in his quest to investigate head transplants. Xiao-Ping Ren of Harbin Medical University in China recently showed that it is possible to perform a basic head transplant in a mouse (CNS Neuroscience & Therapeutics, doi.org/2d5). Ren will attempt to replicate Canavero's protocol in the next few months in mice, and monkeys.

Re: First Human Head Transplant Could Happen in Two Years - Health - 25 Februar
I read this in a Science Magazine about a year ago. I thought I still had the magazine but they went into it in detail. What I got from the article was that the procedure was far from perfected and highly unethical.. you're practically killing a person(or animal) to transfer their head onto a different body. Maybe terrorists should be productive and attempt this procedure instead of wasting all of those severed heads. I mean, they could re-kill the people again if they want.

I've never dated a woman taller than me, I'm 6'1", but I don't think I would mind it. I guess what would bother me is that she would kind of hold it against me, at least, subconsciously. Women want men who are taller than them. It would bother me that she felt that way about me.00|00|0

Vancouver-based Zite magazine app may be bought by CNN
It is being reported by Techvibes that cable news giant CNN may buy Vancouver-based iPad tablet magazine Zite for up to $US25 million.
Zite is an iPad app that, for now, is available for free from the App Store; it aggregates content (mostly news) based on users' personal preferences -- essentially a personalized web search engine.
CNN has understandably relied heavily on video for its own iPad app. It may be that it wants to incorporate Zite's technology to provide users with a more personal experience. Zite evolved from technology developed at UBC. Techvibes noted that Zite has had some recent bother from mainstream meadia sources unhappy with the "misappropriation" of their content; among the companies applying pressure are The Washington Post, the AP, Getty Images and, ironically, Time Warner (CNN's parent company).
