|On Aug. 1, colleagues, family, students and friends of the late arranger, composer and music educator David Blumberg gathered to honor his life and work at the SGI Friendship Center in Los Angeles.
Remarkable spoken and musical tributes by friends such as Stevie Wonder, Herbie Hancock, Wayne Shorter, Mike Lang, Ellis Hall, Keb' Mo' revealed that David Blumberg had touched many lives, even beyond the high level and broad range of his musical achievements. The depth of love and gratitude to this unique individual was utterly palpable over the three hours of the tribute emceed by his long time friend and copyist Ken Gruberman.
Ellis Hall's powerful song "Victorious" opened the ceremony. Herbie Hancock and Wayne Shorter led the Buddhist chant and sacred ritual, Gongyo and Daimoku, which David had practiced many years as a Buddhist leader. David's life was essentially about Spirit. His truest desire was to create music that would move people towards enlightenment.
Ernie Shelby, who collaborated with Quincy Jones when DB (David's nickname) worked at Venture and Motown Records, said "David Blumberg's secret to success as an arranger was a direct result of his spiritual nature. He never pressed to use your recording as an opportunity to showcase himself"…
In describing his experience with David in the recording studio, Christopher Young noted, "when I think of him, I think of this guy who had some sort of magic about him… How do you maintain this great attitude?" Herbie said, "When David walked into a room, the room would change… A warmth would just exude from his presence that made everybody very comfortable…" As his daughter Elodie put it, "He was Home."
Each speaker would shine a light on a part of David's life that others didn't know. Jorge Calandrelli shared how generous David was as a friend.
Tommy White, David's music business consultant praised David's high
Most people present didn't realize the scope of David's life and career. Even his family and closest friends weren't aware of his numerous gold or platinum records such as Michael Jackson's first hit, "Got to be There" or the worldwide disco hit, "I Will Survive."
Jazz bassist Bunny Brunel, via Skype, acknowledged his friend David as "one of the greatest arrangers of his generation" and pointed out, "It's amazing how people don't realize how important an arrangement is when making a hit song."

Tariqh Akoni, David's EIS student (Lyle "Spud" Murphy's Equal Interval System of music composition) spoke on behalf of his fellow students worldwide: "I think I speak for all of us when I say, we are proud to have been arrows in the quiver of the great archer."
John Clayton, President of ASMAC, acknowledged David's major contributions to the organization and his role in creating the successful Master Class Series, which led to the creation of the David Blumberg Education Fund.
Other musical tributes included an exquisite composition by renowned pianist Mike Lang, while Kevin Moore dedicated his touching song "One Friend" to David. Herbie and Wayne's extraordinary interpretation of "Round Midnight" was particularly special since it was during his collaboration with Herbie that David met his wife, Evelyne, in Paris. Sharing his experience winning an Oscar, Herbie stated, "None of that would have happened without David." And although Stevie Wonder joked about David being called a "cool white boy," he had the audience in tears with his incredibly moving song.
David Blumberg, my fother – my brather.
Posted on February 5, 2011 by lggoldman
The first time I met David was when he walked into an EIS class at Pasadena City College taught by fellow graduate student Michael Mitacek. That was the very first class ever taught on the subject at PCC by Mike. First the creator of the Equal Interval System, Lyle (Spud) Murphy, came in to speak to the class, Then each week, one graduate student would come in to tell of their personal experiences with the Equal Interval System. When David came in to talk I took a special interest in his story.
A couple years went by and I had just finished scoring a film for Adam Sandler (Happy Gilmore) for Universal with my partner Tom Adams and another composer, Mark Mothersbough. I had decided that I wanted to advance my composing skills and decided to call David up and inquire into private studies with him. He agreed and in a very short period ( a few months) we became such good friends. At this point he decided to give me a full paid lifetime tuition free scholarship for the course and in turn I took an informal assistantship role.
I continued studying while also assisting him on his many projects. He took an interest in my career, recommending me for many music jobs with his many contacts. He took an interest in my physical well being, as well. He got me going to Tai Chi with his (our) master, James Wing Woo. He even took an interest in my spiritual well being and engaged me in many conversations on the subject. One of many examples being one time he and his charming wife, Evelyne, taking me to be hugged by a Saint (Amma).
I used to kid him that I didn't know if I should call him my fother or my brather..since he contained the unique qualities of both types of figures.
I spent many days/nights at his Brentwood family home with studying music, working on projects, rebuilding his studio, hanging out with his mom (she did the artwork on my Scoring Demo CD), engineering his vocal demos with such artists as Ellis Hall and Benard Ighner, having breakfast, lunch or dinner or all three with the family. I remember going to music industry events held by organizations such as ASMAC (American Society of Arrangers and Composers) or NARAS (National Assoc. of Recording Arts and Sciences), attending NAMM Shows (National Assoc. of Musical Merchandisers) and countless other similar music related activities with him and several of his network of music buddies. Eventually he sponsored me to become a Board Member of ASMAC (which I still hold and am actively involved with on a daily basis) and a member of NARAS.
We spoke on the phone quite frequently often, several times a day. Emails back and forth. Speaking of which he used to send me (and everyone he was buddies with) tons of jokes. He loved doing that. He loved telling them too. He always had a ton to draw from. I also remember that at the end of each ASMAC Board of Directors meeting he would ask the wonderful Van Alexander to tell the Board a joke prior to his departing the meetings near the end to go home and be with his lovely wife. Van always accepted David's setup and told a great joke. David loved doing the setup. In fact, he loved doing the setup – in general – for everyone when he was introducing them to someone they didn't know. He always promoted his friends and students to those he introduced them to. David also made it his responsibility to introduce his students to other folks or other students to help them network. He never kept his cards close to his chest with work.
Several years ago, along with David bringing me onto the Board at ASMAC , he also supported my newly found interest in directing, shooting and producing videos/dvds and related projects. I had been doing that for my performing groups and David wanted me to develop that skill and include a larger variety of subjects. As a result I became the ASMAC go-to video production guy, shooting and producing DVDs of all their events. From that humble beginning, I started recording larger orchestras and continue along that path expanding those interests/skills to this day. Now a professional in that field, all due to David's encouragement.
He had a knack for seeing into people and finding their possibilities and encouraging them to develop those possibilities. Not something a lot of people tend to take the time to bother with. He loved doing that.
David embodied the concept of love thy neighbor as thy loved one self. He never strayed from that ideal for as long as I knew him. I know all his many friends appreciated him, as they all speak so highly of him all the time.
I will miss him dearly and remember him fondly as a great man and a wonderful musician.
But most of all I will always remember him as my best friend, my brather and my fother.

I had the pleasure of knowing David for several years. I used to look forward to our lessons so so much. They were more spiritual than music sometimes (I think that depended on his mood) and there were times when we would have a lesson and then we would pour a drink (Me in Seattle and he in LA) and drink over Skype… it was hilariously funny to my wife. She would tell our friends that Tom is drinking with his computer… I miss him terribly as he was such a force in my life always encouraging me to look deep into the music. Because of David and EIS I have a more rich and fuller musical life and I have new things and ideas that I get to work on. I am eternally grateful.

David was my cousin. I met him at a Seder at our mutual cousin, Joan Travis' house. I asked him to do a couple of string arrangements for my 2nd CD without really knowing what his back ground was. (I was, honestly, hoping for a family discount:) David not only did two beautiful arrangements for me; he put together the harp and string quartet and conducted the players. He treated me with as much respect as he would any one that was paying him triple scale or had a real budget. (I mean we recorded the strings in my home studio).
David made me feel like he was my fan and all ways offered support and encouragement. I studied the equal interval system with him for half a year. He was totally patient with my lack of patience. Plus the laughter!!! Even though I didn't get very far in the course, I really feel that it helped my back up vocal arrangements:)
I'm proud and lucky to have known such a genuine loving soul. His service was very inspiring. I left wanting to be a better person. Much love to Evelyne and Elodie. I have a cactus from the house in Malibu that I treasure in my yard.
Abby Travis
PS- If anyone at this forum would like to hear the work David did for me I'd be happy to send them an MP3 or point you to the songs on Itunes:)

Rarely are we gifted with the grace of a being with such understanding of the human element. David understood and took responsibility for more than just work, it was his connection to understanding and communicating the soul of life. I am a far better person by knowing David and being bless with his life energy. I believe too that his family was first and foremost in this understanding which makes me grateful to the entire Blumburg family.
Thank you for such a beautiful memorial to David's life. His purpose in life lives in us forever.
Dear David

You were much more than a teacher to me. You were mentor and friend. You inspired at least as much as you taught. I will miss you forever.
Loud and Clear
Posted on July 20, 2010 by Ernie Shelby
Somehow it seems poetic that David Blumberg's initials were DB – the acronym for decibels – because the genius of his arrangements was truly loud and clear. I had the pleasure of writing, working and being friends with David since 1968. We enjoyed more hours in the studio together than most friends have in casual friendship. It's truly a blessing to be able to spend so much time doing something you love alongside someone you have so much feeling and respect for. As much as I know I'll miss him, it's very difficult to feel bad about a life so well lived.

About MeMy name is Sarah. I don't have much experience modeling but I've always been told I'm easy to photograph. I'm naturally awkward so I'm better with still photos than anything that would require me to gracefully move, like runway. I had glamour shots taken when I was 15 but I was blessed with a pregnancy a couple years later and took a break from building my portfolio. I'm mostly interested in nature and body art shots. I have 5 tattoos; my last name on my foot, "veni vidi vici" on my back, a peace sign on my calf, "serenity" on my ankle, and the mario cart mushroom on my forearm. I'm very outgoing and I easy adapt.

A Study On The Return On Equity For The Romanian Industrial Companies
In this paper, a study on a sample of 73 Romanian companies operating in industries was conducted. The survey covered the year 2008 and was based on data extracted from annual financial statements of the companies from the sample. Starting from a number of representative papers in the field, there were identified the influence factors of the return on equity and the quantifiable ones were hold, respectively the operating profit margin, the asset turnover and the financial leverage. These financial rates, together with the return on equity, have been determined for the entire population of enterprises from the sample. Subsequently was tested the statistical correlation between the level of influence factors and the return on equity. The results obtained partially confirmed the hypotheses set when starting the research, but have also denied some of them.

Are you using XenDesktop or XenApp to host your application? As I understand by your message, the 'plugin' cannot connect to the Citrix hosting server?
We are using XenDesktop Express here with Desktop hosting. We have 3 clients on Windows 7 x64 that have the OnlinePlugin.exe which we access our desktops with. No issue with this.
The plugin you can go to http://www.citrix.com/English/ss/downloads/results.asp?productID=163057 and download the latest Online Plugin, this is the component that lets you have a desktop icon for each application/desktop that's hosted.
You should also try to open your applicaiton/desktop through the web interface by going to the URL of your Citrix server and see if it can launch your application that way; this way you can check if it's a problem on the Win 7 machine or the Citrix server.
Good Luck.

The 2009 Kia Sorento comes with a wide range of standard safety features, some of which are optional on other vehicles in its price range. Crash-test results are generally good, too, and most sources give the 2009 Kia Sorento excellent marks for safety.
TheCarConnection.com notes mixed reviews in this area, however. While most sources report that the Kia Sorento receives a five-star rating from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) for frontal impacts, Edmunds contends that when it comes to side impacts, occupants of the Kia Sorento would not fare so well; results of these tests are "disappointing." The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) also states that side impact results are less than stellar, giving the Kia Sorento a rating of "poor" in this area.
Beyond these issues, the list of the 2009 Kia Sorento's standard safety equipment is impressive: Cars.com says these include a full complement of airbags (including for the front passengers' knees), electronic stability and traction control, an "energy-absorbing steering column," and rear child door locks, among other features. Kelley Blue Book reports that the "full-length side-curtain airbags and electronic stability control and traction control" are all standard equipment on the Kia Sorento.
Visibility is often an issue in vehicles of this type, but it doesn't seem to be a problem on the Kia Sorento; TheCarConnection.com could not find a single complaint in this area. Canadian Auto Press says it provides a "commanding view of the road" and "excellent visibility from all angles."

Some people assert that after death, consciousness is suspended for a while before being reborn. This is called the in-between state (antarabhava). In Tibetan (Vajrayana) Buddhism there is much interest in the in between state where there are rituals and prayers to assist the departed toward a good rebirth. In Tibetan the in between state is known as the Bardo.
Some claim that this state lasts for seven days, others for 14 and yet others for 49 days. The in-between state is not mentioned specifically in the Tipitaka but we can assume that there is a pause of some duration before re-embodiment and the subsequent rebirth. The available fertilized eggs could not possibly correspond with the number of people who have just died and the consciousness seeking re-embodiment and thus some period of waiting must occur at least in some cases.
The Abhidhamma and the Classical Theravada hold that rebirth is always immediate with no intermediate state. Although there is no indication from the Suttas that directly references an immediate rebirth in all cases. It is only insisted upon in the Abhidhamma, which although part of the Pali Canon, is a later text.
There are a few Suttas which suggest that there could be this intermediate state. One of the strongest indications of this is in the Metta Sutta which speaks of extending loving-kindness to 'bhuutaa vaa sambhavesii vaa' -- "to beings who have come to be and those about to come to be."
If there is an intermediate state (and the above suggests that there is) it would probably be reserved for just those higher or noble ones who are awaiting a good birth. For most, including animals and others, it is most likely instant.

The next morning seemed as if it came too fast. I looked at my phone; there were two texts from Sam trying to cheer me up. I texted him back saying thanks. I still couldn't pin-point what it was that I was feeling for him, but I liked it. I got ready for school and left. Throughout the day I saw Drew; coming out of his office, turning the corner, and then there was this awkward time. I got a pass from my last hour teacher to go to the bathroom and as I was coming out of the class I bumped into Drew. Our eyes met each other as he leaned over to pick up a clip board.
'Sorry.' I said, trying to break his gaze.
'Uhm, it's okay.' He said, he picked up his clip board and walked away.
Those few words meant everything to me. I'm not sure what it was, but they meant that he still knew I was here, that he didn't forget that I was alive. School ended and I went home. Cynthia's car was in the shop, so I drove her home.
'Hey, Chris?' She asked, we were just leaving the school parking lot.
'Tell me about Drew.' She said. Her voice sounded full of intimidation.
'What do you want to know about him?' I asked, my heart started speeding up. There was so much I wanted to say, and so little that I actually could say.
'Just the basics, you know, was he nice? His personality and all of that stuff.' She pressed the button for the window. We sat in silence as I tried to think of words to describe him.
'He was my everything.' I said. Those were the words I could actually elucidate, 'there was a point in time where all I could think about was the next time we'd be together, and the next time I'd be able to stare into his eyes.'
Cynthia grabbed my hand, 'I'm sorry, Chris.' She said. She sounded like she was choking up.
'What are you sorry about?' I asked, this was, I noticed, the first time I'd ever talked about Drew to her.
'I'm sorry for everything that happened.' She let go of my hand.
'It's not your fault. We just stopped dating. I mean, I still love him, I'm still in love with him, but there is always something in the way.' I turned down my street.
'Well, for what it's worth,' she rolled up her window, 'I think you two sound perfect for each other.'
I thought for a second. We pulled into the driveway and I turned off the car. She leaned over and hugged me.
'Thanks Cynthia.' I said. To a certain point, I missed being able to talk to her. We got out of the car and went inside. I went to my room and did the rest of my physics homework when my phone rang. I looked, it was Sam.
'Hello?' I answered.
'Hey Chris!' How are you?' His voice was always exuberant. It made my heart skip a beat.
'I'm good,' I giggled, 'and yourself?'
'I'm going crazy!' He exclaimed. It almost seemed like a big weight was lifted off of his chest after he said that.
'Well, why is that?' I shifted my phone from my right ear to my left.
'I've just been thinking about you. Do you have this effect on all of the guys?' He chuckled and there was an awkward silence.
'Haha no. I haven't been around or with many guys; I'm kind of new to the game.' I laughed.
'Then let me introduce you to the game.' He said.
'And what exactly do you mean by that?' I asked, the smile on my face seemed permanent.
'Come out with me tonight,' he said, 'if you don't have fun then I'll stop hitting on you.' He giggled. His laugh was goofy.
'And what makes you think I won't have fun?' My voice was a little skeptical.
'Haha I don't know. So, what do you say?' He was anxious.
'Pick me up at eight.' I laughed and hung up the phone. I didn't know what it was, but for some reason I always liked to keep him guessing.
I finished the rest of my homework, ate dinner, and took a nap. I woke up around seven and got ready. Sam called at eight and said he was outside. I went downstairs, said goodbye to my mom and Cynthia (dad was asleep), and went outside. I got into the car and gave Sam a kiss on the cheek.
'It's a start.' He smiled and looked over, 'so what do you want to do?'
'Hmm,' I smiled, 'let's go to the beach.'
'At eight at night?' He laughed and started the car, 'whatever floats.'
I smiled. I took a deep breath; my heart was beating really quickly. He drove to the beach and pulled into the parking lot. We sat in his car for a second.
'I'm really glad you came with me tonight.' Sam said, turning to me.
'Haha, me too.' I said, I smiled at him and then turned away. Thoughts pulsed through my brain. I didn't want another love, I didn't want another person; I wanted Drew! But why was it that I felt like this for Sam?
'Hey,' he put his hand on my shoulder, 'you okay over there?'
I turned around. I looked him completely in the face, absorbing everything I could about him. 'Yes.' I said.
'Good,' He leaned forward, 'because that's a relief.'
I leaned in and kissed him. It was a long kiss, one where you try to fit everything you're trying to say into it. I wanted to tell him that I couldn't do this; I wanted to tell him that I wasn't ready. I wanted him to know that I was afraid to fall in love with anyone but Drew, and most of all I wanted him to know how special he, Sam, was. There was something different about him, but he wasn't for me. He was almost too benevolent for me, and it saddened me to think that he liked me so much. He pulled back and put his hands on each side of my face.
'I understand.' He said, he had a sad smile on his face. It was a sweet sadness, and it hurt me.
'I'm really sorry Sam. I just can't right now. I'm sorry'I'm so sorry.' I hugged him. He hugged me back.
'I understand Chris. I mean, you love him. I didn't expect for you to just completely forget about him and fall in love with me. Just know that I'll always be here, and that something will always be here too.' He kissed my forehead, 'deal?'
I nodded. He made me feel comfortable, but I hated doing this, 'friends?' I asked, raising my head up to look into his eyes.
'Even more.' He kissed me on the lips for the last time and drove me home. I told him thanks again, and we said goodbye. I sat in the conservatory. I was in a trance; the things around me disappeared as I saw into my own thoughts. My mind was a place of coldness, and everything in it seemed to cave in on itself. I pondered each situation, and after a little while I flashed back to the first time I talked to Drew in his office that one day. It seemed like forever ago, and I missed it. I missed him. The thought of us never getting back to that day, those feelings, hurt me.
'Chris?' Mom's voice came from the sun room.
'Yeah.' I said, I was half listening.
'Are you okay?' She asked, she sat on the day bed next to me.
'No.' I said. Those words made me break. They made me realize that what I needed was Drew. They made me think about my friends, and how I lost them. They made me think about Sam and how even though I didn't really know him he taught me kindness. They made me think about my family, and how even though we fight, they are always there for me. And most of all, they made me think of myself. They made me realize that I couldn't break. Those words made me stronger, and those words gave me confidence.
'Can I help?' She asked, rubbing my back.
'No. I have to go. I'll be back later.' I said. I was halfway in a trance and halfway determined. Before I knew it I was in my car on my way to Drew's house. I pulled into the driveway and walked up to the front door, opening it. I turned the corner and saw them. Drew and Cam were making out on the couch. I broke out of my trance.
'Oh,' was all I could manage. It was the only word I could say.
'Chris?' Drew broke away from Cam. His face was lit up.
'I'm sorry.' I turned to the door and walked out.
Drew called my name. I stopped and turned, looking at him coming closer.
'I'm sorry. I should have realized, go back inside.' I said, my eyes were watering.
'Did you need to talk to me?' He asked. He was in front of me, his hands in his pockets.
'No, not really. I'll see you later.' I said, turning.
'Chris,' he said, his voice sounded like a plea, 'I'm sorry.'
'Yeah, me too.' I said. I walked to my car and got in. I couldn't breathe, the tears from my eyes started falling. I didn't show Drew, but this hurt. I backed out of his driveway; Drew didn't go back inside yet. I watched him, he mouthed something. It made me stop my car. He mouthed I love you.

About the Author
Other London E-Books
The interactive map below is one of the electronic features in Thomas Bruce Wheeler's The Mapped London of Sherlock Holmes, available at Amazon and Barnes & Noble ($5.99). You can preview the map by a mouse click on one of its Sherlock Holmes symbols. If you wish, the legend on the left side of the map can be collapsed by clicking on the legend's small vertical three-dot symbol. Then, a mouse click on any of the map's Sherlock Holmes figures will open an illustrated text box explaining that site's Sherlockian significance.
If you want to see a photograph of that place, click on the small diamond symbol on the text box. This will open a new Google map with only that site marked. There is a small yellow Pegman symbol on lower right of this new map. Click and drag the Pegman to the blue street nearest the marked site. This will produce a street-level photograph. The mouse wheel can then be used to convert the photo to an aerial view.
The Mapped London of Sherlock Holmes e-book also contains access to a map of Victorian London. A mouse click on the book's cover below, will link to Amazon.com. There, their "Look inside" feature will allow you to preview all of the book's computer app features.

Reflections on the McMillan group review of good practice in technology transfer.
The higher education sector must come to terms with State Aid regulations if it is to make better informed decisions about research and innovation.
Innovation is a contact sport, so what higher education does with local business really matters.
In tough financial times the Government inevitably asks us about the impacts achieved by our funding.
In short, yes. In our report : Research to Assess the Nature and Annual Value of Student Start-Ups, focusing on student start-ups and students involved in spin-outs, students who studied within art and design and computer science are far more likely to start up a business.
How many new innovation tools are being pioneered in UK universities? Does higher education have an adequate innovation system of its own? Do our higher education institutions know What Works?

Install Private Supermarket¶
Chef Supermarket is the site for community cookbooks. It provides an easily searchable cookbook repository and a friendly web UI. Cookbooks that are part of the Chef Supermarket are accessible by any Chef user.
There are two ways to use Chef Supermarket:
- The public Chef Supermarket is hosted by Chef and is located at https://supermarket.chef.io.
- A private Chef Supermarket may be installed on-premise behind the firewall on the internal network. Cookbook retrieval from a private Chef Supermarket is often faster than from the public Chef Supermarket because of closer proximity and fewer cookbooks to resolve. A private Chef Supermarket can also help formalize internal cookbook release management processes (e.g. "a cookbook is not released until it's published on the private Chef Supermarket").
The private Chef Supermarket is installed behind the firewall on the internal network. Outside of changing the location from which community cookbooks are maintained, it otherwise behaves the same as the public Chef Supermarket.
The source code for Chef Supermarket is located at the following URLs:
- The application itself: https://github.com/chef/supermarket. Report issues to: https://github.com/chef/supermarket/issues.
- The code that builds Chef Supermarket as an omnibus package: https://github.com/chef/omnibus-supermarket. Use a Kitchen-based environment to build your own omnibus packages.
- The cookbook that is run by the
supermarket-ctl reconfigurecommand: https://github.com/chef/supermarket/tree/master/omnibus/cookbooks/omnibus-supermarket
A private Chef Supermarket has the following requirements:
- An operational Chef server (version 12.0 or higher) to act as the OAuth 2.0 provider
- A user account on the Chef server with
- A key for the user account on the Chef server
- An x86_64 compatible Linux host with at least 1 GB memory
- System clocks synchronized on the Chef server and Supermarket hosts
- Sufficient disk space to meet project cookbook storage capacity or credentials to store cookbooks in an Amazon Simple Storage Service (S3) bucket
Chef Identity¶
Chef Identity (also referred to as oc-id) is an OAuth 2.0 authentication and authorization service packaged with the Chef server. Chef Identity must be configured to run with a private Chef Supermarket, after which users may use the same credentials to access the Chef Supermarket as they do to access the Chef server.
The Chef Supermarket server must be able to reach (via HTTPS) the specified
chef_server_url during OAuth 2.0 negotiation. This type of issue is typically with name resolution and firewall rules.
To configure Chef Supermarket to use Chef Identity, do the following:
Log on to the Chef server via SSH and elevate to an admin-level user. If running a multi-node Chef server cluster, log on to the node acting as the primary node in the cluster.
Update the
/etc/opscode/chef-server.rbconfiguration file.
To define OAuth 2 information for Chef Supermarket, create a Hash similar to:
oc_id['applications'] ||= {} oc_id['applications']['supermarket'] = { 'redirect_uri' => 'https://supermarket.mycompany.com/auth/chef_oauth2/callback' }
Reconfigure the Chef server.
$ sudo chef-server-ctl reconfigure
Retrieve Supermarket's OAuth 2.0 client credentials:
Depending on your Chef server version and configuration (see chef-server.rb), this can be retrieved via chef-server-ctl oc-id-show-app supermarket or is located in
{ "name": "supermarket", "uid": "0bad0f2eb04e935718e081fb71asdfec3681c81acb9968a8e1e32451d08b", "secret": "17cf1141cc971a10ce307611beda7ffadstr4f1bc98d9f9ca76b9b127879", "redirect_uri": "https://supermarket.mycompany.com/auth/chef_oauth2/callback" }
secretvalues will be needed later on during the setup process for Chef Supermarket.
Add as many Chef Identity applications to the
chef-server.rb configuration file as necessary. A JSON file is generated for each application added, which contains the authentication tokens for that application. The secrets are added to the Chef Identity database and are available to all nodes in the Chef server front end group. The generated JSON files do not need to be copied anywhere.
The redirect URL specified MUST match the FQDN of the Chef Supermarket server. The URI must also be correct:
/auth/chef_oauth2/callback. Otherwise, an error message similar to
The redirect uri included is not valid. will be shown.
Install Supermarket¶
To install a private Chef Supermarket use the
supermarket-omnibus-cookbook. This cookbook is available from the public Chef Supermarket.
- The
supermarket-omnibus-cookbookcookbook is attribute-driven; use a custom cookbook to specify your organization's unique
node[supermarket_omnibus]attribute values.
- The custom cookbook is a wrapper around
supermarket-omnibus-cookbook, which performs the actual installation of the Chef Supermarket packages, and then writes the custom
node[supermarket_omnibus]values to
- The Chef Supermarket package itself contains an internal cookbook which configures the already-installed package using the attributes defined in
In general, for production environments Chef recommends to start running Chef Supermarket with small virtual machines, and then increase the size of the virtual machine as necessary. Put the
/var/opt/supermarket directory on a separate disk, and then use LVM so that may be expanded.
Create a Wrapper¶
A wrapper cookbook is used to define project- and/or organization-specific requirements around a community cookbook.
In the case of installing a private Chef Supermarket, Chef recommends the use of a wrapper cookbook to specify certain attributes that are unique to your organization, while enabling the use of the generic installer cookbook which, in turn, installs the Chef Supermarket package behind your firewall.
All of the keys under
node['supermarket_omnibus'] are written out as
/etc/supermarket/supermarket.json. Add other keys as needed to override the default attributes specified in the Chef Supermarket omnibus package. For example:
default['supermarket_omnibus']['chef_server_url'] = 'https://chefserver.mycompany.com'
default['supermarket_omnibus']['chef_oauth2_app_id'] = '14dfcf186221781cff51eedd5ac1616'
default['supermarket_omnibus']['chef_oauth2_secret'] = 'a49402219627cfa6318d58b13e90aca'
default['supermarket_omnibus']['chef_oauth2_verify_ssl'] = false
On your workstation, generate a new cookbook using the
chef command line interface:
Generate the cookbook:
$ chef generate cookbook my_supermarket_wrapper
Change directories into that cookbook:
$ cd my_supermarket_wrapper
Defines the wrapper cookbook's dependency on the
supermarket-omnibus-cookbookcookbook. Open the metadata.rb file of the newly-created cookbook, and then add the following line:
depends 'supermarket-omnibus-cookbook'
Save and close the metadata.rb file.
Open the
/recipes/default.rbrecipe located within the newly-generated cookbook and add the following content:
include_recipe 'supermarket-omnibus-cookbook'
This ensures that the
default.rbfile in the
supermarket-omnibus-cookbookis run.
Define Attributes¶
Define the attributes for the Chef Supermarket installation and how it connects to the Chef server. One approach would be to hard-code attributes in the wrapper cookbook's
default.rb recipe. A better approach is to place these attributes in a data bag, and then reference them from the recipe. For example, the data bag could be named
apps and then a data bag item within the data bag could be named
The following attribute values must be defined:
You can get the chef_oauth2_app_id and chef_oauth2_secret values from your Chef server (which you configured earlier in this process) in
chef_server_url, enter in the url for your chef server.
chef_oauth2_app_id, enter in the uid from
chef_oauth2_secret, enter in the secret from
To define these attributes, do the following:
Open the
/recipes/default.rbfile and add the following, BEFORE the include_recipe line that was added in the previous step, (assuming a data bag named
appsand a data bag item named
app = data_bag_item('apps', 'supermarket')
Set the attributes from the data bag:
node.override['supermarket_omnibus']['chef_server_url'] = app['chef_server_url'] node.override['supermarket_omnibus']['chef_oauth2_app_id'] = app['chef_oauth2_app_id'] node.override['supermarket_omnibus']['chef_oauth2_secret'] = app['chef_oauth2_secret']
When finished, the
/recipes/default.rbfile should have code similar to:
app = data_bag_item('apps', 'supermarket') node.override['supermarket_omnibus']['chef_server_url'] = app['chef_server_url'] node.override['supermarket_omnibus']['chef_oauth2_app_id'] = app['chef_oauth2_app_id'] node.override['supermarket_omnibus']['chef_oauth2_secret'] = app['chef_oauth2_secret'] include_recipe 'supermarket-omnibus-cookbook'
Save and close the
If you are running your private Supermarket in AWS, you may need to set an additional attribute for the node's public ip. i.e. node node.override['supermarket_omnibus']['config']['fqdn'] = your_node_public_ip
Upload the Wrapper¶
The wrapper cookbook around the
supermarket-omnibus-cookbook cookbook must be uploaded to the Chef server, along with any cookbooks against which the
supermarket-omnibus-cookbook cookbook has dependencies.
To upload the cookbooks necessary to install Chef Supermarket, do the following:
Install Berkshelf:
$ berks install
Change directories into
$ cd ~/.berkshelf/cookbooks
Upload all cookbooks to the Chef server:
$ knife cookbook upload -a
Change directories into the location in which the wrapper cookbook was created:
$ cd path/to/wrapper/cookbook/
Upload the wrapper cookbook to the Chef server:
$ knife cookbook upload -a
Bootstrap Supermarket¶
Bootstrap the node on which Chef Supermarket is to be installed. For example, to bootstrap a node running Ubuntu on Amazon Web Services (AWS), the command is similar to:
$ knife bootstrap ip_address -N supermarket-node -x ubuntu --sudo
-Ndefines the name of the Chef Supermarket node:
-xdefines the (ssh) user name:
--sudoensures that sudo is used while running commands on the node during the bootstrap operation
When the bootstrap operation is finished, do the following:
Edit the node to add the wrapper cookbook's
/recipes/default.rbrecipe to the run-list:
$ knife node edit supermarket-node
supermarket-nodeis the name of the node that was just bootstrapped.
Add the recipe to the run-list:
"run_list": [ "recipe[my_supermarket_wrapper::default]" ]
Start the chef-client on the newly-bootstrapped Chef Supermarket node. For example, using SSH:
$ ssh ubuntu@your-supermarket-node-public-dns
After accessing the Chef Supermarket node, run the chef-client:
$ sudo chef-client
Connect to Supermarket¶
To reach the newly spun up private Chef Supermarket, the hostname must be resolvable from a workstation. For production use, the hostname should have a DNS entry in an appropriate domain that is trusted by each user's workstation.
- Visit the Chef Supermarket hostname in the browser. A private Chef Supermarket will generate and use a self-signed certificate, if a certificate is not supplied as part of the installation process (via the wrapper cookbook).
- If an SSL notice is shown while connecting to Chef Supermarket via a web browser, accept the SSL certificate. A trusted SSL certificate should be used for private Chef Supermarket that is used in production.
- After opening Chef Supermarket in a web browser, click the Create Account link. A prompt to log in to the Chef server is shown, but only if the user is not already logged in. Authorize the Chef Supermarket to use the Chef server account for authentication.
The redirect URL specified for Chef Identity MUST match the fqdn hostname of the Chef Supermarket server. The URI must also be correct:
/auth/chef_oauth2/callback. Otherwise, an error message similar to
The redirect uri included is not valid. will be shown.
Customize Supermarket¶
Chef Supermarket is a Ruby on Rails application with a PostgreSQL backend. The private Chef Supermarket configuration may be scaled-out, such as using an external database, using an external cache, and using an external cookbook storage location.
External Database¶
A Chef Supermarket installation can use an external database running PostgreSQL (9.3 or higher) and with the
pgpsql and
pg_trgm installed and loaded. The public Chef Supermarket uses Amazon Relational Database Service (RDS). To use an external database, configure the following attributes in the
/recipes/default.rb recipe of the wrapper cookbook:
node.override['supermarket_omnibus']['config']['postgresql']['enable'] = false
node.override['supermarket_omnibus']['config']['database']['user'] = 'supermarket'
node.override['supermarket_omnibus']['config']['database']['name'] = 'supermarket'
node.override['supermarket_omnibus']['config']['database']['host'] = 'yourcompany...rds.amazon.com'
node.override['supermarket_omnibus']['config']['database']['port'] = '5432'
node.override['supermarket_omnibus']['config']['database']['pool'] = '25'
node.override['supermarket_omnibus']['config']['database']['password'] = 'topsecretneverguessit'
External Cache¶
Chef Supermarket installations can also use an external cache store. The public Chef Supermarket uses Redis on Amazon ElastiCache. One Redis instance per private Chef Supermarket application server may be run safely. Use Redis 2.8 (or higher) for a high availability pair. To use an external cache, configure the following attributes in the
/recipes/default.rb recipe of the wrapper cookbook:
node.override['supermarket_omnibus']['config']['redis']['enable'] = false
node.override['supermarket_omnibus']['config']['redis_url'] = 'redis://your-redis-instance:6379'
External Cookbook Storage¶
Cookbook artifacts—tar.gz artifacts that are uploaded to Chef Supermarket when sharing a cookbook—can be stored either on the local filesystem of the Chef Supermarket node (
/var/opt/supermarket/data by default) or in an Amazon Simple Storage Service (S3) bucket. To use an S3 bucket, configure the following attributes in the
/recipes/default.rb recipe of the wrapper cookbook:
node.override['supermarket_omnibus']['config']['s3_access_key_id'] = false
node.override['supermarket_omnibus']['config']['s3_bucket'] = 'supermarket'
node.override['supermarket_omnibus']['config']['s3_access_key_id'] = 'yoursecretaccesskey'
Run Supermarket in Kitchen¶
To run Chef Supermarket in Kitchen, do the following:
Download the
supermarket-omnibus-cookbookcookbook from:
$ git clone https://github.com/chef-cookbooks/supermarket-omnibus-cookbook.git supermarket-omnibus-cookbook and then: $ cd supermarket-omnibus-cookbook
Create a .kitchen.yml file that is local to the repo:
.kitchen.local.ymland then add the following:
--- suites: - name: default run_list: - recipe[supermarket-omnibus-cookbook::default] attributes: supermarket_omnibus: chef_server_url: https://chefserver.mycompany.com chef_oauth2_app_id: 0bad0f2eb04e935718e081fb71e3b7bb47dc3681c81acb9968a8e1e32451d08b chef_oauth2_secret: 17cf1141cc971a10ce307611beda7f4dc6633bb54f1bc98d9f9ca76b9b127879 chef_oauth2_verify_ssl: false
Install the
vagrant-hostupdaterplugin. This plugin enables automatically adding the names of machines to the
/etc/hostsfile. This is important when using OAuth 2.0, which cares about host names. The
redirect_urivalue in the Chef Identity configuration reflects this name.
$ vagrant plugin install vagrant-hostsupdater
Start the Chef Supermarket, and then test it:
$ kitchen converge default-centos-66 && kitchen verify default-centos-66
Go to Chef Supermarket, and then log on as a Chef user:
After logon, the following should be shown:
If Kitchen fails due to being behind a proxy, update the .kitchen.yml file:
name: chef_zero
http_proxy: http://192.168.1.1

Kitchen Runs Slowly¶
If Kitchen has to download and install the chef-client omnibus package every time, do the following to speed that process up:
Update the .kitchen.yml file so that Kitchen can cache the omnibus installer:
--- provisioner: name: chef_zero chef_omnibus_install_options: -d /tmp/vagrant-cache/vagrant_omnibus
Cache the Yum repos using the
$ vagrant plugin install vagrant-cachier
and then create a
Vagrant.configure("2") do The configuration file to use. config.vm.box = 'some-box' if Vagrant.has_plugin?("vagrant-cachier") config.cache.scope = :box config.cache.enable :chef config.cache.enable :apt config.cache.enable :yum config.cache.enable :gem end end
and then:
$ cd supermarket-omnibus-cookbook
Create a .kitchen.yml file that is local to the repo:
.kitchen.local.ymland then add the following:
--- suites: - name: default run_list: - recipe[supermarket-omnibus-cookbook::default] attributes: supermarket_omnibus: chef_server_url: https://chefserver.mycompany.com chef_oauth2_app_id: 0bad0f2eb04e935718e081fb71e3b7bb47dc3681c81acb9968a8e1e32451d08b chef_oauth2_secret: 17cf1141cc971a10ce307611beda7f4dc6633bb54f1bc98d9f9ca76b9b127879 chef_oauth2_verify_ssl: false
Install the
vagrant-hostupdaterplugin. This plugin enables automatically adding the names of machines to the
/etc/hostsfile. This is important when using OAuth 2.0, which cares about host names. The
redirect_urivalue in the Chef Identity configuration reflects this name.
$ vagrant plugin install vagrant-hostsupdater
Start the Chef Supermarket, and then test it:
$ kitchen converge default-centos-66 && kitchen verify default-centos-66
Go to Chef Supermarket, and then log on as a Chef user:
After logon, the following should be shown:

You, you're everything I want... I, I'm everything you need... This hunger seems to feed on me, they can never know just what we've done... they will never know the lives we left, or the ghosts we leave in our wake. We knew how this would end, but we continued despite everything...
I wake up slowly, feeling the darkness through my closed eyes. Its probably not even close to sunrise. Sleep isn't something I can do anymore, not since I met him. I open my eyes and turn my head to look at him. I stare at his slumbering form, I cant help but smile, he lays on his side I stare at his hand on my waist. His need to constantly touch me, even when sleeping. His hands show his labor of a working man rough, and firm. Trailing up his lightly hairy arms to his biceps, his recent trips to the gym paying off, he was solid when we met, now its his "toning" faze as he calls it. I look at his chest his slight hair covering most of it, with his cute little nipples. I love nothing more then putting my face there for any reason I can find. up his neck to this jaw strong and square, now hanging open with his "pass out" sleep ritual. To his nose broken and bent but, its not ugly, it looks good on him like a tribute to his past fights. his warm cheeks puffed out with each breath, I stare for a minute watching them puff up and fall with his breathing.
Up to his eyes, even closed I could just stare all day. I regret nothing I've done since I've met him and I don't want to. He must of sensed that I woke up (with his creepy powers of doing that) and slowly opened one and looked back. the eyes a green, a beautiful Irish valley green that makes life seem better. Now fully awake he props his head up while trying to flex for me, giving me his goofy smirk. I know what he wants, round two. I cant help but giggle just a little, and that's all the reason he needs to pull me close and kiss me. his lips soft, and warm inviting in so many ways. I roll on my back, he understands, he furrows his eyes brows, at my gesture. we are both tired in the early morning but I'm not gonna do the work, plus I think he likes when I get submissive. he grunts and rolls on top, covering my face with kisses, licking my neck and ears. his legs push mine apart as he pushes himself up so I can breathe. he's much bigger then me, and I love it. he runs one hand down my face stroking my cheek, making its way to my belly where he makes little circles. his way of calming me when I'm nervous. I always get nervous when we are naked like this. his big frame, beefy and just solid that all American man look, compared to my less the average frame. his skin making mine look even more white, and he doesn't even tan, just pale and thin. except my legs, I was cursed with athletic legs after a life of being lazy they still look like I run a lot, and it makes me feel like I'm uneven, and too hairy like at any minute hes gonna see me and freak out, tell me I'm ugly and gross. he claims I'm cute or sexy, but no matter what with all his attention I feel, well ugly. I'm taken from my thoughts by his lips meeting mine. I don't know how and he swears he cant, but he always knows what I'm thinking or feeling. he sits up straight on his legs and runs his hands down my body stopping only to play with my bellybutton quickly before reaching lower. he licks one finger and places it on the tip and slowly slides it to the base, I shiver and whine, he loves playing with me, and I hate it.
He continues his little finger play for a few more minutes before bending down it lick me from base to tip, his tongue fat and wet, I cant help but let a moan slip. this he likes, and quickly pulls me into his mouth where he runs his tongue all around making me squirm and shiver. he slides a finger lower making small circle from base down to my hole. there he sits and just rubs it over and over, ignoring my moans and attempts to push down onto his finger. I go to sit up and take control, but he wont have any part of it, with his other hand he pushes me down and keeps his hand on my face holding me down as he slurps and rubs as much as he pleases. then when he gets bored he sucks on his finger and slides one home, this causes me to jerk and moan very loudly. this he likes very much as he smirks at me again and removes his hand from my face. I try to talk but he shuts me up by jamming his fingers in y mouth and adding a second finger. I squirm and moan around his finger, then suck on them. that really gets him going. he pulls out his finger from both holes and pulls me forward then pushes me down again. this time on my belly he puts himself in front of me and slides in my mouth. its awkward for me but he seems to like it so he just sits there letting me slobber all over him. while I'm busy sucking, he runs his hands down my back and onto my ass. walking his finger down the paw prints I have tattooed there(I really do) before smacking my cheeks hard. I bite his dick a little, making him yelp, its my code for do that again and you'll regret it.
After a couple more minutes he flips me over onto my back again. he gets up and walks off, mean time I start drifting off back into sleep. just on the edge of falling asleep he climbs back in between my legs and chuckles at me. he pushes my legs up and hold them and then pushes in. still sore from his earlier pounding, I grunt and wake right up, he slows his entry and with him still in me rolls me on top of him. I normally would ride him, but tonight he sits up and wraps my legs around him with me in his lap he starts pumping. he feels even better tonight, warmer some how. I bury my face in his chest as he continues to have his way moaning into his chest an squirming on his lap. after about ten minutes he rolls me back onto my back grabbing my shoulders he starts to get rough. I know hes getting close cause he really starts pumping, skin making smacking noises every time it touches. I never tell him it hurts when he does this, but I just work through it jerking off to keep up with him. after one rather hard push, I pop and cum shooting on my belly. with that he grunts and gives my ass 3 good extra slams and grunts loudly. he came, I can tell, and he has the proud just got laid look on. he leans in close kisses my lips, cheek, then earlobe, he whispers "don't be mad". I look at him confused, then he pulls out, and sits up. and I see his dick, his bare dick. I just gape at him, my mouth not able to make words. he smiles sheepishly and shrugs. I've never done bareback before, and I just look at him, I feel betrayed. he kisses my forehead and says, "its ok thought because I love you." with that he reaches under the bed and pulls out a box with a silver ring. I know cheesy right? but he purposed right there I in bed. I start crying and say yes and he hugs me.
I'd like t say we lived happily ever after, that we found eternal love... but this is real life. I found out three months later he was sleeping with someone else, younger then my 19 years of age. but he gave me something I can always remember him by, I found out I was HIV+ 6 months later. I've only been with one person in my life. from the age of 16 when we met to 19. now I'm struggling to even be normal.

Stoke eye Greek star
Skysports.com understands Stoke City are preparing a move for Olympiakos defender Vasilis Torosidis.
By Fotis Voinikas
Last Updated: 07/07/11 8:41am
Skysports.com understands Stoke City are preparing a move for Olympiakos defender Vasilis Torosidis.
The Greece international is regarded as one of the best attacking full-backs in Europe after impressing for club and country over the last few years.
Torosidis has been linked with a move to England in the past with Liverpool, Manchester City, Sunderland and Blackburn all credited with an interest in the right-back.
Now Stoke are ready to make a move for Torosidis with the player admitting he would be interested in a move to one of Europe's top leagues.
Stoke boss Tony Pulis has made a new right-back one of his top priorities in this summer's transfer market and landing Torosidis would be something of a coup.
Torosidis is reported to have a €7million (£6.3m) buy-out clause in his contract, but Olympiakos would consider lower offers.
Olympiakos vice-president, Giannis Moralis, insists they have yet to receive any bids for Torosidis, but that they are open to offers for the defender.
No offers
"We haven't received any offer so far for Torosidis," Moralis told skysports.com.
"The player is under contract with Olympiakos and we make our plans for the new season with him in our squad.
"Of course, like for all the players in our squad, we are open to talks also for Torosidis.
"If we are going to receive a big offer for him we are ready to negotiate."

Question: The accountant for Carina Ltd Ms Finn has sought your
The accountant for Carina Ltd., Ms. Finn, has sought your advice on an accounting issue that has been puzzling her. When preparing the acquisition analysis relating to Carina's acquisition of Lyra Ltd., she calculated that there was a gain on bargain purchase of $10,000. Being unsure of how to account for this, she was informed by accounting acquaintances that this should be recognized as income. However, she reasoned that this would have an effect on the consolidated profit in the first year after acquisition date. For example, if Lyra reported a profit of $50,000, then consolidated profit would be $60,000. She is unsure of whether this profit is all post-acquisition profit or a mixture of pre-acquisition profit and post-acquisition profit.

Lean Government in Baltimore
Governments everywhere are struggling with deficits and rising costs. All over the country, jurisdictions find themselves needing to do more with less. In order to confront this dilemma, many public officials have started looking at the government processes to evaluate wasteful, inefficient, and unnecessary steps.
Lean Government emphasizes making government more efficient, responsive, and satisfying to citizens and employees alike while simultaneously respecting individuals and changing the way people think about government.
In Fiscal 2013, the City launched its Lean Government Initiative with the purpose of evaluating City processes and making tangible improvements that result in greater efficiency and better customer service.
Through the Lean Government initiative, the City has initiated a culture shift that empowers employees to think dynamically, work toward continuous improvement and ensure Baltimore's municipal processes are adding value for residents. The initiative is comprised of two programs:

Description: condition very good, but there is a few small minor blemishes in top part of print,
From a collection of prints by a Tokyo photo circle:
In the mid 1990s Sakura-do acquired an archive of photographs by a group of Japanese pictorialist. Unfortunately, only a few contained verso inscriptions or signatures making attribution difficult. The first obvious clue to this lot was that it included works by several photographers. With this pretense, research was done on Japanese photography clubs which numbered in the thousands during the 1920s. The first scenario uncovered was this archive may have come from a Tokyo based photographic art group. One the prints contained a hanko stamp by Kisei Takano, a Tokyo based art photographer active in the late 1920s and early 1930s. Takano was a member of the Hakunaka Shako Kai which consisted of nine members, including co-director Kiichiro Miyashita. This group is thought to have been in existence from 1926 to 1930 due to listings in various photographic annuals and journals of the day.
Another possibility is these photographs are by members of the Tokyo Shashin Kenkyu Kai (Tokyo Photographic Study Group), a prominent photographic art study group. This group was listed in the 1932-1933 Japan Photographic Annual which included the names of all 112 members. Included was Takano, the same photographer mentioned above. Two other names on this list also matched names on the reverse the prints within the archive.
A third possibility is these prints were taken by photographers associated with the famous Japanese painter Kinosuke Ebihara. Accompanying the archive was a small photograph of an Ebihara painting signed by the painter and dated 1936. Ebihara studied in Paris from 1923 until 1934 when he returned to Tokyo. This possible connection can further be supported due to numerous images of Paris within the archive.

Akshay Kumar is currently in London and catching up Wimbledon. He in fact went to watch the match between Andy Roddick and Andy Murray over the weekend. It was during this time that Akshay was being interviewed by Nikki Bedi for a Radio show on BBC.
According to Kuljinder Singh, the Editor of The Nikki Bedi Show, this was the first time that a Bollywood actor was being interviewed live from London. The show was mainly light hearted chat for the BBC Asia Network that was held at the side of the court. On the laid back afternoon in London, Akshay Kumar seemed to be at his witty best. He spoke about the Wimbledon and of course Bollywood. About the weather in London, Akki said that the atmosphere in London is absolutely great - bright and sunny. A welcome respite from the rains in Mumbai, perfect for an absorbing match!
After giving out some big hits this season, this seems to be a well deserved break for Akshay.

Telekinesis, people underestimate this one.
You can disarm someone by controlling their arms.
You can kill someone, just make their hearts pop our of their bodies.
You can fly, just lift yourself in the air.
You can make others and objects fly.
You cannot stop time but if you are strong enough you can stop the whole world from moving.
Considering time is also a dimension , and time and space are inter-related, you can stop time too.
