We have stayed several places on the lakefront, and have come to Nantahala lake for many years. This one has the best views we have encountered. Great large, clean, house, lotsa beds, well furnished. Fantastic week stay. There is quite a steep stair climb from the lake dock to the house, so I would caution those who have trouble taking stairs.
My wife and two college age adults stayed there for a week. Had our Kayaks to explore the lake, rented a boat at the marina. Had wonderful evening sunset dinners overlooking the beautiful lake. Weather was perfect (End of July) the lake temp. was also perfect for swimming (83F). A totally enjoyable experience. The accommodations are excellent. Great get away experience. Will do it again next year.
Oh my gosh! This house is BEAUTIFUL! The views are indescribable and overall heavenly. My parents had rented this house before but it was my 1st time and let me say hopefully it won't be the last. Just hanging out around the house is fantastic. Its close to a hiking trail, boat rental,and white water rafting as long as you don't get lost ,LOL Which we did BUT even getting lost was fun and beautiful! The porches are awesome. This trip was more than I ever imagined. If you are reading this trying to decide whether or not to rent it, let me just say, YOU should. You will not regret it. It is truly amazing. Trying to describe it and pictures do not reveal how breathtaking this place is in person.
we made memories with our grandchildren that will last life time.the humming birds were amazing.pictures of the house did not do it justice.it was beautiful...ONE of the best vacations EVER thank-you for sharing your home.
Absolutely Amazing! This cabin is the most well appointed vacation home we have ever stayed in! The views are awesome! The beds are very comfortable, the master bedroom shower is incredible, and the cabin is laid out very well. The walk up from the lake is a work-out, but being on the lake is well worth it. We hope to make many return trips to this cabin! A big THANK YOU to the owners for keeping it very comfortable and affordable.
We found the house to have the room and views we were looking for. The view of the lake and the mountains was great. I really enjoyed grilling on the deck and looking at the lake. Wonderful. Could have used a dehumidfier in the basement though. Very musty. Overall it was a very relaxing trip. It was a little further away from the activities we wanted to do such as rafting/horse back riding and the SM Park. It took on average 45 minutes to 1 1/2 hours to get anywhere and there was an issue of bees and a lot of them. They had quite the colony under the bottom deck. While they didn't bother us, the sound they made was intimidating. We had a wonderful lunch in Dillsboro (?) at the bbq joint. I wouldn't waste my time on the train ride out of Bryson City. Not worth it in my opinion. Mingo Falls was beautiful but I would skip Deep Creek. Lousy fishing in the lake but the kids really enjoyed the dock. Saw a small fox at the dock on our last day.

Stephen James Harlan
Masters of the past and artists of the present use techniques to create images that please, relax, and inspire in very personal and unique ways. Stephen Harlan has established his own style in a world moving quickly into the new millennium.
Stephen was born in Minnesota and his childhood memories are filled with thoughts of family, friends, and the activities that kept his soul alive during the long winter months. His family relocated to Ft. Myers Florida while he was still in grade school. His love for the water began at an early age where he spent time sailing into the sunset (literally) on his catamaran. Investigating the uniqueness of harbors and sunsets became a passion and his focus on the mystery of light and shadows is a driving force in his art today.
In the early 80's Stephen and his wife relocated to Burbank, California where his love for the ocean continued. Abstract images also began developing as requests and interest from collectors in this new geographic location surfaced. His images were recognized by many and adorned the covers of magazines. He was recognized as a leader in digital imagery and continued to place Best of Show in major exhibits across Los Angeles.

THE ancient Greek accounts of the origin of the world and of the gods have been recognized by many of the older interpreters of Mythology as bearing a striking resemblance to the Scriptural stories of the Creation of heaven and earth, the Golden Age, the Fall, and the Flood. Though this comparison has inevitably suggested itself, no attempt has been made to follow it up systematically and in detail, nor could this have been successfully accomplished without that universal mathesis, that master-key which fits into every door,—the Divinely revealed Science of Correspondences.
In the absence of this guiding star, modern interpreters have attempted to establish the science of Comparative Mythology on a purely materialistic basis, but the result has been an unsatisfactory, unsystematic and ludicrous jumble of contradictory hypotheses, devoid of all religious, ethical, and artistic elements. According to the "physical" interpreters of the evolutionary school, the ancient Greeks were entirely destitute of any spiritual ideas, nay, even philosophical and moral conceptions were quite foreign to them. They were mere nature-worshipers, and all their beautiful myths were nothing but different phases of the apotheosis of dead matter. Everything was a sun-myth, or a moon-myth, or a cloud-myth, not to speak of earth-myths and mud-myths. The Greeks themselves compared this form of thought to Pegasus with his wings bound, and chained to a plow.
In the New Church alone we are able to recognize the intimate relation between Theogony and Theology, between Mythology and Religion. Here we can realize that in the presence of Mythology we stand before a noble classical temple, the home of the Muses, the cradle of all art, poetry and culture; to us alone has been given the key, and if we enter into the inner recesses we shall find ourselves in a sacred adytum which strangely resembles the interior of a temple of the New Jerusalem.
An effort was made, some years ago, to bring the light of the New Church to bear upon the mythology systems of ancient Canaan, Babylonia, and Assyria (see Appendix II). It is our purpose, now, to make a similar effort in respect to the Pantheon of Ancient Greece and Rome, reviewing in a general way the most obvious correspondences which are there presented. The Writings of the New Church contain numerous references to this Mythology, with direct interpretations which to us are authoritative. Our own interpretations, though based upon the Divine Revelation, are offered only in the way of suggestion.
Mythology, being the science of ancient religions, is a sacred science and must therefore be handled with reverence and care. Two things are needed for its interpretation: correspondences and rational doctrine. Without correspondences Mythology will never open up its buried temples and treasuries, but correspondence is merely the key; within are labyrinthine passages and chambers where unguided imagination may easily go astray. A guide is needed and this guide we have in the systematic theology of the New Church, which is one with the Doctrine of the Ancient Church, and which not only points the way but at the same time warns against false interpretations. But with both the key and guide at hand we may safely explore the labyrinth, and our journey will then serve most important uses. It will place our mind in communication with the celestial and spiritual heavens of the Lord's Ancient Churches. It will store the imagination with noble and beautiful images, the representative ultimates of heavenly thoughts and affections, and, above all, it will show that the Religion of the ancients is one with the Religion of the New Church, teaching the same Divine truths, inculcating the same lessons of moral and spiritual good, and leading the mind to the worship of the same and only supreme God, the God of the Ancient Church who is the Lord of the New Church.

It's always a struggle to find a good masculine paper collection. As luck would have it, the Off the Wall Collection from Kaisercraft, was just what I needed to solve the dilemma . I created this mini album for my son and we are both thrilled with how it turned out.
I removed the inner pages of an existing photo album and altered the cover with pieces from the Off the Wall Collection. As an added finishing detail, I also included some metal gears from my stash on the cover.
Some of the inside pages of the mini album, shown below, contain photos as well as a mixture of things that my son loves.
Supply List: Adhesive: Beacon Adhesives 3-in-1 Advanced Craft Glue; Die Cuts: Kaisercraft Off the Wall: 6 ½ inch Pad, Collectables, Loud, Sticker Sheet; Misc: ink, metal gears, metallic gel pen, paint, plastic cord, ribbon, stickers
This was such a fun album to create. Stay tuned for more fun projects from this collection.

To George Washington from Robert Morris, 19 October 1781
Philada Octr 19th 1781
Dear Sir
Should an opportunity offer Mr Ridley will present before you my two Sons who have the ambition to pay their Compts. to you, before their departure for Europe, where they are now destined under the care and protection of that gentleman untill he can place them with their Tutors. I consider the step I have taken as advantageous to them, and also of some Public consequence, because if the example is followed and it becomes the practice to Educate American Youths in France, Habitual attachments will strengthen those ties of affection which in gratitude is due from this to that Country.
I have written to His Excy Count de Grasse excusing myself for depending on a passage on one of His Majesties Ships. Shou'd you have an opportunity of [adding] a Word on the Subject, it will procure to Mr Ridley & the Boys the favourable attention of the Commander they go with. I flatter myself with the fond hopes that these Boys may hereafter become usefull to their Country and that they will add to the Number of those who shall Publicly make repeated gratefull acknowledgments for the blessings of Liberty & Peace transmitted to them by means of those Noble, those Glorious Exertions of which your whole Conduct in this War affords one continued & unparalled Example. Your present operations must have become serious before this time and we begin here to feel, the full Force of that impatient expectation which is Natural on such an occasion.With Sincere attachments of the most ardent wishes for Your Success I ever am D Sir, Your devoted hble servt

Thousands more families will benefit from an increased number of health visitors who give advice and support, and play an important role in safeguarding children, Public Health Minister Anne Milton has confirmed.
A national recruitment drive to create 4,200 new health visitors and build a rejuvenated profession is being announced today. This means the numbers of health visitors working closely with families in the community will increase by almost 50%.
Creating a new modern health visiting profession will be achieved by:
- Creating 4,200 new health visitor positions.
- A new improved training programme.
- A focus on recruiting and retaining workers.
- Creating a new vision and identity for the profession.
Anne Milton said: "Health visitors play such an important role. They give support and advice to families and can make a huge difference to the lives of children.
"The health visiting profession has been eroded dramatically over the past decade. That's why we are funding 4,200 new posts and improving training.
"We need to attract new people into the profession and to keep the health visitors we have. We will fund a national recruitment drive that will show the vital work health visitors do in supporting families and boosting public health.
"Investing in health visitors is investing in the future health and wellbeing of our children, families and communities."
This commitment is a mark of how central health visitors will be in the government's future plans. Health visitors, working at the front line in young families' homes, are in a unique position to help:
- Prevent illness and injury.
- Children get the best start in life.
- Ensure wider community support is at hand for families who need it.
Over the past 25 years society and families have changed. There are now more families with complex needs and health visitors need to be able to respond to these changes. As well as the traditional aspect of the role, giving advice and support to new mothers, health visitors also have an important role in safeguarding children and referring onto specialist services.
To ensure the process of referrals is as easy and smooth as possible a new SAFER referral tool has been developed and is being launched today at the Unite Community Practitioners and Health Visitors Association conference.
Chief Nursing Officer, Chris Beasley, said:
"This new SAFER referral tool will improve communications between key health and protection agencies and support us in making our children safer.
"We have worked closely with health visitors to develop this new way of working to ensure referrals to specialist services work better for families that are vulnerable and have complex needs.
"By working together we can move health visiting in a very exciting direction and make an even bigger difference to family health and wellbeing."
Your comments (terms and conditions apply):
"As an ex-health visitor this is good news but the increase should be UK wide. In Glasgow, many highly experienced health visitors have left the profession in disgust at the continual erosion of their role, the ever-increasing irrelevant and unwieldy amount of paperwork, no clerical support and increased number of unnecessary managers who have little or no direct input to families yet are rewarded with a higher pay band than the overworked, undervalued and underpaid health visitors they 'manage'. It is a disgrace. Frontline experienced health visitors should be given the Band 7 pay which the post deserves - this would increase both retention within and recruitment into the profession" - Gale McCallum, Glasgow
"Thank god, after 23 years in the job I'm on my knees, send in reinforcements please. Uh oh it doesn't include Scotland does it!" - Jane Lofthouse, Scotland

A schoolboy was facing years behind bars today for knifing a younger pupil to death outside a classroom.
The 16-year-old stabbed Luke Walmsley through the heart in front of a crowd of horrified pupils in a corridor at Birkbeck Secondary School in North Somercotes, Lincolnshire.
A Nottingham Crown Court jury found him guilty yesterday of murdering the 14-year-old.
Trial judge Mr Justice Goldring said he would sentence the boy, who cannot be named for legal reasons, today.
Luke's grieving parents, Paul and Jayne, were too upset to comment after the verdict yesterday but were expected to speak about their ordeal following the sentencing.

Definitely needs more added to it to make it tasty.28/07/2016, By SuninaGood concept but the flavour just isn quite there yet. The coconut tasted a little rancid but even if fresh it needs another element of flavour and tastes a bit better with organic maple syrup or honey.

Drugs are increasingly being found in south-east Queensland prisons as Corrective Services staff struggle to detect illicit substances, a union says.
Figures tabled in State Parliament show prison officers have increased the number of targeted and random drug tests over the past three years to crack down on banned substances behind bars.
Of the more than 4,800 targeted drug tests carried out in Queensland prisons in the 2015-16 financial year, almost 800 — nearly 17 per cent — returned positive.
The Maryborough Correctional Centre in the Wide Bay Burnett performed worst, with 22 per cent of targeted tests coming back positive, up from 17 per cent in 2014-15.
The Brisbane Correctional Centre also had an increase in positive results at 20 per cent, up from 11 per cent the previous year.
But other prisons had a fall over the period, with 18 per cent of targeted tests at the Arthur Gorrie Correctional Centre near Ipswich returning positive, down from 25 per cent.
The privately-operated Southern Queensland Correctional Centre in the Lockyer Valley, also had a fall from more than 27 per cent to 20 per cent.
"As we see more chemically-created drugs and the problems that go along with them … things like the urine analysis are finding them, but once we get to that point they're already inside the prison which is a worry."
Mr Thomas said it was a "systemic issue", and drug detection methods may need to be re-examined.
"We're seeing an increase in the number of tests, and that's a good thing because we've got an increased number of prisoners that are in jail," he said.
"But are the tools that we've used in the past such as the drug detection dogs, are they appropriate now with the changing nature of drugs in our society?"
The Department of Corrective Services has been contacted for comment.

You do not need to fear the word 'fitness'. The word may bring back things that you would rather forget, like a childhood spent being teased over your weight. Let go of negative associations and feelings so you can enjoy becoming more fit. You will find the tips you need in the article below to achieve exactly that.
Do not do just sit ups or crunches to exercise your abs. A prominent university found that only one pound of fat gets burned even after 250,000 crunches. Because of this, crunches alone are not sufficient for a total ab workout. Vary your abdominal exercises for superior results.
Proper form when walking is vital to reduce injury when working out. Draw back your shoulders and stand upright. You elbows should be held at a 90 degree angle. Your foot and arms should be totally opposite each other. Your heel should be the first part of your foot to strike the ground. yoga workout topsThe foot should then roll forward, finishing with the ball of the foot.
When doing any workout, you should make sure to exhale after every repetition of the given weight. When you time your exhalation for this stress-free part of the lift, you'll be able to take in more air. Your body will be able to use it more efficiently, too, increasing your overall endurance.
Taking a run outside is generally better than being on a treadmill in the gym. It's easy to praise treadmills in the cold winter months, but when it comes to exercise, there's no substitute for running on solid ground.
When lifting weights over your head, with each rep you should flex your glutes. This is not only good for a glute workout, it also lowers your chance of injury since you will be in a better position. The more stabilized position of your spine greatly diminishes your risk for injury.
Most exercise programs do not burn the amount of calories most people think, so they exercise to the extreme. The problem with this is that you can quickly push yourself to a dangerous level of exhaustion, which can lead to other health problems. Additionally, it is bad for your body to push the limits in any way.
Fitness has many physical and mental benefits. By beginning a regimen of yoga workout tops regular workouts you may even be able to improve your emotional health. The endorphins released while working out can improve your mood as well as some depression medications. When you exercise and work out, you will start to gain confidence and improve your image of yourself. A good fitness program allows you to improve both your health and your happiness.
If you want to shed pounds, make your exercise routine more dense. If you exercise more in a shorter amount of time, you can see more weight loss. Increase the density of your workouts by shortening your breaks or removing them altogether. Your weight loss will be increased by this method.
An important fitness tip is to never exercise when you are sick. If you are ill, your body has to use its energy to heal itself. Working out when sick will do more harm than good. With this in mind, avoid exercising too strenuously until you are fully recovered. Take this time to catch up on some sleep, and don't skip any meals.
To build some muscle in your quadriceps, try doing some simple box squats. Box squats really help you gain that extra push of power you need when doing squats. The only equipment you require is a box that you can position behind you. To correctly perform this exercise, proceed with a normal squat, and take a pause when you feel the box beneath you.
If you have taken the information in this article to heart, you will probably notice your feelings about exercise and nutrition beginning to change. You will feel better about your body, live longer and have a lot of fun.

Marie Windsor (Emily Marie Bertelsen), (born Dec. 11, 1919, Marysvale, Utah—died Dec. 10, 2000, Beverly Hills, Calif.), American actress who portrayed strong but often unsavoury women in most of her more than 70 films and was known as the "queen of the B's"—a title she wore proudly—because of the many B films, including Cat Women of the Moon (1954) and Swamp Women (1955), in which she appeared. She was, however, best remembered for her first film as star, The Narrow Margin (1952), as well as such film noir classics as Force of Evil (1948) and The Killing (1956). She later branched out into television, and she also served for many years on the board of the Screen Actors Guild.

Senior American military officials said there is simply not much American gear left to pull out of the country.
On Wednesday, the impending end of America's long Iraq war put Gen. Martin Dempsey, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, in a reflective state of mind about the U.S. military's and his own 20-year involvement with Iraq. Dempsey spoke of the war on the same day that he visited the dusty bases that are the first stop for American soldiers as they leave Iraq.
Like many Army officers, he fought in the first Gulf War. He returned to the country in May 2003, leading a force of more than 30,000 troops in Baghdad in a fight against an insurgency that was gaining strength. By October 2003, he said, he began to realize that he and his Army did not fully understand the nature of the conflict that they were fighting.
"People say, 'For God sakes, you were a two-star general. How could you say you didn't understand?' " Dempsey said. "I don't know how I can say it, but I lived it. And I mean it."
Dempsey has spent more time in Iraq than all but a handful of American military officers. On Thursday, U.S. officials will formally shut down their top military command in Iraq, a key milestone as the war draws to an end.
For Dempsey, the end of the war is a source of satisfaction. Violence is at its lowest since 2003. Although many of the disputes that have fueled sectarian fighting in the country remain unresolved, Dempsey spoke of Iraq in largely positive terms.
"I think we have given Iraq an enormous opportunity. We have built relationships with the Iraqi military that will persist well into the future," he said. "I am concerned, but I am also proud."
In the remote camps along the Kuwait-Iraq border it was clear that U.S. involvement in Iraq is rapidly drawing to a close. In late November, more than 4,000 American soldiers were waiting for flights home at Camp Virginia. Today, that number has dwindled to about 1,600.
At Camp Arifjan, more than 1,700 American armored vehicles are parked in neat rows as they are readied for their return to the United States.
A few miles away, at the base's Theater Redistribution Center, soldiers and contractors pour through boxes of equipment that have returned from Iraq in an effort to determine what needs to be salvaged and shipped home and what should be destroyed. In recent weeks, they have received four CT scanners from American field hospitals in Iraq, more than 21,000 tires and several high-tech satellite dishes.
On Wednesday morning, most of what was left behind appeared to be junk. A half-dozen cardboard boxes that recently arrived from Iraq contained old Christmas lights, used office supplies and some rubber hoses.
More than 2.2 million pieces of equipment have already left Iraq. "We are down to our last percent," said Maj. Gen. Ken Dowd, who is leading the logistics effort from Kuwait.
The U.S. convoys hauling troops and equipment out of Iraq have been attacked an average of only one or two times a week since the massive push out began in October, said military officials. The attacks have not resulted in any serious injuries.
In all, more than $2.7 billion of American equipment has flowed through Kuwait and back into the U.S. Army's supply system.
The American military also leaves Iraq with some valuable lessons.
"If we haven't learned anything in the last 20 years, I hope we have reminded ourselves ... that once you enter into conflict it becomes unpredictable [and] chaotic," Dempsey said. "And that is because it is waged among dynamic, living, thinking human beings."

Holistic Development is an approach in which one attempts to address all of a child's development needs at the same time. It is suggested that this approach "leads to a better understanding of why a child behaves in a particular way" and encourages "children's natural intelligence" and "natural curiosity, love of nature,… sense of responsibility and to problem solve".
The child as a whole can be explained through the acronym SPICES referring to their Social, Physical, Intellectual, Communication (or Creativity, or Character) and Spiritual needs and development.
It's basis is in the Holistic Education movement, a "philosophy of education based on the premise that each person finds identity, meaning, and purpose in life through connections to the community, to the natural world, and to humanitarian values such as compassion and peace."
Here, " the teacher is seen less as person of authority who leads and controls but rather is seen as "a friend, a mentor, a facilitator, or an experienced travelling companion" (Forbes, 1996). Schools [are] seen as places where students and adults work toward a mutual goal. Open and honest communication is expected and differences between people are respected and appreciated. Cooperation is the norm, rather than competition. Thus, many schools incorporating holistic beliefs do not give grades or rewards. The reward of helping one another and growing together is emphasized rather than being placed above one another."
How is this applied in Forest Schools?
Anne-Marie Medhurst suggests;
This holistic approach is perhaps best seen when applied to a particular activity. In this instance the activity started when the leader silenced the group and led them on a mysterious and circuitous route through the woods to a bush with strands of wool draped over it. This, he explained, was the breath of the Choo- choo people and had been left for the group to create friendship bracelets. The group worked in pairs, helping each other to plait 2 strands of wool and tie them to form a bracelet. They then continued their walk to find the Choo- choo village which they discovered had been destroyed by a dragon. The group was given the task of finding materials to rebuild the village (small shelter building) and the Forest School leader moved around the group encouraging them to talk about who lived in their houses. These stories were then developed and shared with the rest of the group during the celebration of work.
Using the SPICES methodology you can see how all aspects of development were covered by this activity.
Social – supporting others, working collaboratively and in a team, self- esteem, sharing and turn taking, understanding the difference between reality and imaginary play (able to have fun), decision making, negotiation, ability to cope with others using and adapting their stories/ideas.
Physical – movement, gross motor skills, fine motor skills, using different muscle groups.
Intellectual – story telling vocabulary, design and building of structures, imagination, decision making, thinking skills, problem solving, independence.
Communication – creative expression, decision making, eye contact when making friendship bracelet, listening skills, story telling vocabulary, non verbal communication.
Emotional – individual points of view respected, sense of achievement raises self- esteem, empathy and respect of others stories, creative expression, excitement, perseverance, imagination, dealing with emotions through play. Ability to cope with others adapting their ideas and story
Spiritual – beauty of nature, individual points of view and belief, community ethos.
Whereas a Forest School Trainee suggests;
The morning activities were all about the importance of play and how holistic development can be supported. We discussed how we could ensure that a child's Social, Physical, Intellectual, Communication, Emotional and Spirtual (SPICES) could be promoted through Forest School Play. We agreed that these aspects of development transcended everything we did in our woodland play activities and how with adult support, children would recognise this too. We discussed Mindfulness and that this naturally occured as we just went around the forest, engaging without threat or fear of time constraints or failure of succeeding in things. Our pleasure was our own, we could take it from whatever we chose to do, from watching others from taking Risk and Challenge and in Exploration of our Natural Environment. We felt safe and recognised if we as adults could feel this way, imagine how empowering it must be for children.
Leanne relayed stories to us of children who had had life changing moments within the forest, my favourite was that of a young boy (Year 2) who recently on a Spring morning had entered the Forest from a slightly different route and on doing so had been exposed to an area he had never come across before. Leanne told us how he ran towards her shouting, "Iv'e found it, I've found it, I've found the Land of Peace". Recognising his excitement she followed him to a meadow like spot in which Bluebells and Wild Garlic was growing and the bright morning sun was dappling the meadow with its rays, it did indeed look a 'Land of Peace'. Soon other children ran to see his discovery and shared in his wonderment, For the rest of the morning the children played around the Land of Peace making up stories of the little people that lived there and building them resources they might need. On their return to school news soon spread to other classes and year groups who all wanted to visit this amazing land. Their teachers soon picked up on this amazing unplanned learning opportunity and in turn each class visited the Land of Peace. Literacy lessons became more interesting as the younger children wrote stories of the adventures that took place there. Older children wrote pieces of persuasive writing on why people would want to live there. On the school council the children put forward their desire to preserve this beautiful area of the Forest and to prevent people from trampling the beautiful flowers and herbs that grew wild and free there. So strong was their determination and appreciation of this special place that the Governors handed over 1500.00 pounds so that the children's wish for a bridge could be built so that it became a protected area. All this from one young boys discovery during a play session in Forest School, such is the power of this approach to education.
You will in time look upon your own practice and be able to decide how your activities meet the needs of the whole child.

Understanding the Cloud
Share: 0000
Even after so many have begun evaluating and deploying cloud strategies, there are still debates raging on about what can be considered "Cloud" and what cannot. We have seen several examples of huge enterprises successfully combining both public and private cloud infrastructure services. They have not only been able to integrate them smoothly, but they are also building on the foundation easily with more and more services rolling out with increased ease and larger reach. There are two definitions of the cloud (as given in older versions of the Wikipedia definitions). They are two definitions that are different and similar at the same time. Sounds confusing? Well let's take a closer look.
- Cloud as a business model- This is one of the earliest definitions that floated on the internet when the cloud was in its infant stages. The concept indicated that the cloud was a way of selling IT capability as services and this dates back to when Amazon introduced the S3 and EC2 services. It was described as a service that you availed over the internet and paid per use and it was ready for use on demand.
- Cloud as an operations model – This definition was introduced when the cloud was seen to penetrate into operations for businesses across the world. It held the view that the cloud was not something new but it was simply providing regular services on demand with elastic services. An enterprise that operates with this on demand criteria factored into their operations was described as a cloud service.
