After the defeat of Dunguib yesterday, Irish backers will be hoping for better from RITE OF PASSAGE and he can provide compensation by beating Finian's Rainbow, Quel Espirit and Peddlers Cross. Dermot Weld's charge took third behind Dunguib in last year's Champion Bumper before disappointing at Punchestown, but he's done nothing but improve since returning this season. After winning a decent handicap on the level, the talented six-year-old made a winning start over timber and has followed that up with victory since. He's yet to be tried at the top level but on what we've seen has the engine for the job, whilst the fluency he showed over the obstacles last time will stand him in good stead. He's no ground concerns and should get the trip with the minimum of fuss, so gets our confident vote. There are dangers though; Quel Espirit wasn't far behind our pick in the bumper here last year and can be forgiven a poor run last time whilst Peddlers Cross is unbeaten and remains the apple of his trainer's eye. The concern with both is that this ground will be the fastest they've encountered, so perhaps a bigger danger is Finian's Rainbow. Nicky Henderson's charge arrived at Seven Barrows with a tall reputation and, as a point-to-point winner, this trip should serve him well. He's done very little wrong under rules either with a sole defeat coming on bottomless ground, so having prepared well for this with a victory last time out he must be taken seriously. His defeat at Chepstow came courtesy of Reve de Sivola, so Nick Williams' animal is considered but with ground conditions entirely different the form should be reversed. Summit Meeting could enter the frame at a decent price but may need to improve upon his win last time and again this ground could be on the fast side, so of more interest at prices are Ghizao and Manyriverstocross. The last-named ran well at Newbury last time out behind yesterday's Supreme Novice second Get Me Out Of Here but should be much more at home over today's trip, whilst Ghizao is well regarded and his sole defeat came at the hands of a smart rival. Some Present is another who shouldn't be ruled out entirely as his placed form is working out well, but this top class race can go to the potentially top class Rite Of Passage.

SHAWNEE, Kan. – Questions over why Sen. Pat Roberts missed an important joint Senate committee on the Ebola virus arose again during an interview with KSNT News First Anchor Cristina Frank.
His answer to Frank that the hearing wasn't "substantive" doesn't match what his colleagues who attended the hearing said at the time – including fellow Kansas Senator Jerry Moran, who effusively praised the hearing.
"Sen. Roberts keeps changing his stories but they still don't pass the truth test," said Orman for Senate campaign manager Jim Jonas. "First he lied to Kansans and said the hearing was held out of session – even though he knew he voted twice on the Senate floor that day. Now he says it wasn't 'substantive,' an assertion disputed by his own colleagues. And how would he know if it was substantive anyway if he wasn't there? Kansans need to know why someone who lives in Virginia, and rarely returns to Kansas, should have so much trouble showing up in Washington for the job Kansans pay him for."
Frank asked Roberts the following question during a candidate profile interview: "Another question that came up on Twitter was about you missing the September 16 hearing about Ebola. Your reaction to people questioning that?
Roberts answered: "That was a committee hearing that was before the latest occurrence with Ebola. I did not find that substantive in regards to what the subject was."
Here's what his colleagues who attended the joint hearing of the Senate Health Education Labor and Pension Committee (HELP) and the Senate Finance Committee thought of the hearing titled: "Ebola in West Africa: A Global Challenge and Public Health Threat."
Sen. Jerry Moran of Kansas: "Mr. Chairman, thank you very much. I very much appreciate you and your leadership working with the Senator from Tennessee [Lamar Alexander] and I together to make certain that this hearing take place. . . . the encouraging thing to me is that this is an example of something where United States Senate, where the Congress and the President can come together and actually make a difference -- something that we ought to take some satisfaction in if we're able to accomplish that. And so I appreciate the leadership here today."
Ranking HELP Committee Member Sen. Lamar Alexander of Tennessee: "I'm pleased that on both sides of the aisle we have leaders who are beginning to recognize the severity of this epidemic. . . . We look forward to learning all we can about the severity of the epidemic and what we must do to control it. But I'll end where I started. We must take the deadly, dangerous threat of the Ebola epidemic as seriously as we take ISIS [the terrorist army that has overrun parts of Iraq and Syria]."
Sen. John Boozman of Arkansas: "Thank you, Mr. Chairman. And thank you very much for having this hearing -- you and the rest of the leadership on both sides. This is so important."
Sen. Richard Burr of Georgia: (After hearing testimony from an American doctor who contracted Ebola while serving as a medial missionary in Liberia and survived): ". . . to see the human face behind the issue is absolutely crucial to those of us who sit on this committee and in this institution."
Sen. Roberts' attendance at Senate committee hearings has become an issue in this campaign since press reports have documented he missed 70 percent of the Finance Committee hearings, 88.5 percent of the Health Education Labor and Pension Committee hearings, and 65 percent of the Senate Agriculture Committee hearings.

CLEVELAND -- The night sky was flickering with flames as a warehouse caught fire in the 2900 block of Broadway Avenue early Thursday morning.
Authorities say the strong winds had knocked over a metal pole, which struck a power line and sparked the fire.
Firefighters also had to deal with windy conditions while battling the blaze. At one point, debris had flown across the street temporarily triggering a brush fire.

The city of Los Angeles is taking legal action against former Playboy Playmate Dani Mathers after she secretly photographed a nude woman in a locker room.
Mathers captured a photo of the 70-year-old woman — who was showering in a local fitness club — and subsequently posted the footage of her encounter, along with disparaging remarks, to Snapchat back in July.
The city has charged the 29-year-old with one count of invasion of privacy. If found guilty, Mathers could face up to six months in jail and a $1,000 fine.
RELATED: Playboy Model Dani Mathers Body Shamed A Naked Woman at Gym — Could The Police Get Involved?
"Body shaming is humiliating, with often painful, long-term consequences. It mocks and stigmatizes its victims, tearing down self-respect and perpetuating the harmful idea that our unique physical appearances should be compared to air-brushed notions of 'perfect.' What really matters is our character and humanity," Los Angeles city attorney Mike Feuer said in a statement. "While body-shaming, in itself, is not a crime, there are circumstances in which invading one's privacy to accomplish it can be. And we shouldn't tolerate that."
Mathers' court arraignment is scheduled for November 28.

Acupuncture as a method of treatment of mans' illnesses is know to have its origin amongst the ancient Chinese possibly as long ago as 4,500 years - before recorded history. Early evidence of this development of acupuncture consists of diagrams of human and animal bodies with acupuncture points identified and ancient implements used in its application.
The Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine is often cited as the definitive history of acupuncture but was probably a compilation of observations and documents over centuries. It is thought to have been written between 300 - 400 BC. Primitive forms of acupuncture started when people began using small sharp stones to pierce or press the skin. Bone needles replaced this and when metals were discovered, gold and silver were used.
Many myths have survived to partly explain some of the observations as the secrets of acupuncture have been slowly unravelled

Crop yields are closely related to farm productivity. By producing more with the same resources, farms can lower costs and lower their reliance on natural resources. We want crop yields to be optimal instead of being the greatest. The difference being an optimal crop yield uses the resources given to it in the most productive way per unit of resource, whereas the greatest yield can have more resources thrown at it than is absolutely necessary.
Lower crop prices will ease the stress of poverty in developing countries. We don't just need to think about the environment, we also need to be mindful of prices to enable efficient technology to be accessible to everyone. We have duties to both the environment and our humanitarian duty.
My main area of research in the past has been in agricultural science, which is what this post is about. The award will also cover the fields of hydrology, water resource management and soil management. We need a structured approach to our future problems which is interdisciplinary and encourages understanding with stakeholders outside of research, academia and commerce.
Over the coming months I will write blog posts about each field of research we are interested in and we'll gain an understanding of where each field is at and the possibilities of interdisciplinary cooperation.
New Crop Management
Consumers these days are in increasing numbers demanding organic food. This must be grown on organic farms which are subject to strict guidelines and periodic inspections. Organic food cannot be grown in unnatural pesticides and fertilisers, but some organic farming associations consider natural pesticides and fertilisers as acceptable for growing organic food. Another point of contention is the use of genetically modified organisms (GMO). Some consider GMO to be fine, others do not. The FAO has an in depth discussion on the definitions of organic farming.
Organic farming does not necessarily mean decreased crop yields. Over the past few years techniques have been developed to overcome the challenges of growing without synthetic chemicals, such as push pull planting of grasses. Certain grasses contain natural pesticides and others attract pests, which in synergy can keep a field free from pests.
Of great concern is the competition between food crops and fuel crops. This leads to higher food prices. An in depth discussion is on the Oxfam Canada website.
Palm oil has the highest yield of any crop and that is a shame because palm oil plantations are competing with food crops in the developing world and destroying natural rainforests.
Our Future
As visionaries of the future, we need to develop new techniques for increasing crop yields. This will help us overcome the challenges of feeding a world of seven billion people. Compounding on our problem, we have reduced environmental certainty from the impacts of climate change. With water shortages on the horizon, we need to be prepared ahead of time to enable us to swiftly sail into the future.
This award will recognise those who enable us to use our scarce resources efficiently. By increasing crop yields, you are doing your part to save humanity from the problems of running against our natural resource limits.

Lord Williams of Mostyn: As the noble Lord, Lord Mackay, pointed out, this is a question of principle and a question of mechanics. The noble Lord virtually conceded that the second part of his amendment is defective. How does one define an umbrella campaign organisation? There are difficulties, but there is no purpose in my spending time on the deficiencies of the second part of the amendment because he concedes those. Finding more holes in the amendments on a drafting basis is not fruitful at this time of the evening.
The real question is the question of principle which the noble Lord identified; that is, that the public should be properly informed. The media will have their part to play along with political parties, political figures and everyone who has an interest. That is one of the reasons we felt it was important in Wales that there should be a period of decent, calm reflection of two weeks or so, so that the public are fully informed on the specifically Welsh complexion and aspects of the situation.
There is a good case for ensuring that those who will vote in the referendums are well informed about the proposals on which they are being asked to vote. Therefore other persons and bodies have their part to play. I take the thrust of what the noble Lord, Lord Mackay, said; it is something with which I agree. And I can tell him that we are currently considering how best to achieve that. I do not believe that one needs yet another layer of bureaucracy with an independent commission. The umbrella organisation's description, even as a floated proposition, is not likely to work.
I take up the offer of the noble Lord, Lord Mackay, when he says that he is perfectly happy to put his proposals forward in a little more detail. All I can say, with the usual caveat now tattooed upon my head, is that there are no guarantees. I am perfectly happy to see whether or not we can come to a conclusion which is satisfactory to him. If not, we shall have to make up our own minds. But I stress again to the Committee that we believe in the validity and virtue of the case that those who are to vote ought to be well informed. On that basis, which I hope he finds helpful--I have not overlooked the second part; I have simply not dealt with it because nitpicking has diminishing returns--I ask him to respond in the way that I approached his point.
Lord Sempill: Perhaps I may quickly intervene. What I find interesting about the amendment of the noble Lord, Lord Mackay, is that one issue of which we are well aware, especially in Scotland and I am certain that it applies to other parts of the United Kingdom, is that there is substantial apathy among our youth towards voting--it was shown in the last election--and in their general attitude towards politics as a subject. It is important therefore that due consideration is given to the proposal and that the tone of the leaflet inspires young people. After all, they are voting on an issue which will affect their future much more than ours. They must be clearly made aware that the destiny of the way they want the constitution of this country to be taken forward sits in their hands. If the money can be found for some form of publicly-funded leaflet, clarifying exactly what is the status they are considering, it should be funded and the leaflet subsequently circulated.
Lord Steel of Aikwood: Perhaps I may briefly support the thrust of the agreement between the two Front Benches on this issue and make one suggestion. It is important that the Government, in coming to their final conclusions on this issue, look at the experience of both the 1975 and 1979 referendums. There were differences.
My recollection is that in the 1975 European referendum a printed leaflet of the kind described in the amendment of the noble Lord, Lord Mackay, was
Lord Williams of Mostyn: I do not want to mislead the noble Lord, Lord Steel. I did not say that. I know that the noble Lord, Lord Mackay of Ardbrecknish, would not have taken my remarks in that way. I said that we are currently considering how best to achieve public information and that I shall be grateful--I am sorry for any discourtesy--to all sources who wish to put forward their views. However, I stress that I have done nothing more than that.
Lord Steel of Aikwood: I understand that. I hope that I was not putting words into the Minister's mouth. I am urging him to look at the experience of the 1975 referendum, which I felt was the best procedure and better than that adopted in 1979. If he does that, he will end up doing that which the noble Lord, Lord Mackay, is pressing him to do.
Lord Williams of Mostyn: Again, I am grateful to the noble Lord for his courtesy and clarity. We of course will take that advice on board.
The Earl of Lauderdale: The noble Lord, Lord Sempill, referred to the atmosphere among young voters. The noble Lord, Lord Williams, said that the public must be properly informed. Perhaps I may remind the Committee that we in this Chamber are here because we take a great interest in politics. On the whole the public outside do not do so and the last general election was overshadowed by a year of media coverage of events which had not yet happened. Of course, the public were bored stiff.
I remind the Committee that it is easy to get bored with politics and perhaps I may give by example a personal reminiscence. When I used to stand for the other place and go night after night to three or four villages and address an almost empty school hall with around three people in the audience, it was often said to my wife, "Why do you not sit on the platform with your husband?" Her answer was, "I do not want him to see me wince".
Lord Mackay of Ardbrecknish: I am not entirely sure what I am being offered. I was grateful to the noble Lord, Lord Steel, for his support and in fact for his questioning which brought the noble Lord, Lord Williams of Mostyn, to the Dispatch Box again. I then took a note of what he said. He said, "Public consider"; something about "public information".
Going back to a debate we had earlier, I can see that someone may construe the "public information" as being information about the Government's White Paper;
Lord Williams of Mostyn: I do not believe I can help the noble Lord. I want simply to be as clear as possible so that no one is misled. What I have said, and I have said it twice but I repeat it, is that we are currently considering how best to achieve that; that is, that those who are to vote or to consider voting in the referendums are well informed. I said that any sensible proposal, from whatever source, will be part of that consideration. However, I stress that I am doing nothing further than that.
Lord Mackay of Ardbrecknish: I am grateful for that clarification as far as it went. Perhaps I can make it clear to the noble Lord that I would certainly recommend that my noble friends vote against any proposition brought at Report or Third Reading which envisaged an information campaign which gave only one side of the argument. I would certainly recommend that my noble friends voted against that. I hope that the Cross-Bench Peers may see the force of that argument and even, in this case, the Liberal Democrats also.
I hope that that is not what the Government have in mind. They ought to give consideration to this proposal in relation to public information. I am grateful to the noble Lord, Lord Williams, as far as it goes. I shall take refuge in the usual phrase that I shall read carefully what he said--and I certainly shall have to read it carefully. I shall also probably have to write to the noble Lord about it. However, I hope that whatever the Government are considering on this issue, they will be in a position to respond at Report stage when, if they do not table an amendment to allow us to discuss the issue again--either an amendment which they mean to put into practice or just one to allow us to debate it and allow them to say what conclusion they have reached--I shall certainly table an amendment, perhaps better worded than this one, in order to bring the issue to your Lordships' attention. On that basis, I beg leave to withdraw the amendment.
Amendment, by leave, withdrawn.
On Question, Whether Clause 4 shall stand part of the Bill?

I'm just starting to explore using Astropad with Illustrator and I've hit a strange snag. - I'm using an iPad Pro with Apple Pencil and while everything else on the screen works fine when I tap with the Pencil, there is one thing I seem unable to do: I cannot swap between fill and stroke using the toolbar controls -
I've tried tapping multiple times, tapping hard and soft, tapping and holding - all to no avail. (Although I have realised that double tapping brings up the colour picker dialogue, just as a double-click would, but only for the currently foregrounded option.)
I've set up a workaround by modifying one of the Astropad sidebar buttons to do the swap (keystroke "X"), but I still find it mysterious and frustrating that I can't do this by tapping on the toolbar.
Have others encountered this issue? Am I missing something basic and obvious?
What version of Illustrator are you using? We'll look further into this on our end. Please send us a video of this happening, support[at]astro-hq.com
I've had the same issue. I created the x sidebar button and it does the trick but any insight into why it doesn't work without it would be great. - I'm using CC2015
Oh goodness, is there any update on this? This seems like such a great program but if I can't do this simple thing without getting to my keyboard it all seems useless...
We're still investigating, and figuring out a workaround to this issue with Illustrator swatch selection. When the swatches are in list format, this seems to more likely happen.
Hey guys!
Just chiming in on this.
I also seem to have the swatch selection bug in Illustrator CC, the latest version, 2015.3 or whatever and the shnazzy new Astropad 2.0.
I am glad you mention that swatches in list view are more likely to suffer this bug Malyse, so i tried icon view and i can always select them that way, phew!
I can also switch colour from fill and outline with pencil no problem however I also cannot switch between which of the two are in front, gotta switch to trackpad or select colour and swap it with X.
Thanks for the added info on this
This is an inconvenient problem, and we're narrowing on what may be causing this. We appreciate adapting your settings around this issue; as well as the patience.
I'm having this issue, as well. Can't seem to be able to toggle from stroke to fill by tapping either. Secondly, when trying to duplicate geometric shapes, especially small ones, with the option drag method it instead either rotates my object or destorts it. It's the same scenario when I simply want to move or scale the object. These things are easily achievable for me with a mouse but near impossible with the Apple Pencil. Any help is appreciated.
Apologies for the inconvenience. What version of Illustrator are you using so we can test on our end?
Thanks for getting back to me! I have been using CC 2015.3.1
Hi, is there any further comment on the fill/stroke selection issue in the above? I have the same issue, selection doesn't work with the pointer. I'm able to toggle hitting x on the keyboard which is fine for most of my work, but then I'm tied to my desk essentially. Latest Astropad (downloaded today), latest Mac OS, latest Ilustrator CC. This thread looks to be several months old so I'm hoping...
Same issue. Mac OS 10.11.4, Illustrator CC 2015.3, newest Astropad version, iPad Pro, Apple Pencil. I moved the toolbar to the middle of the screen to make sure it wasn't some problem with the edge of the screen, but same results - can't switch to stroke.

 Mastering the art of stretching out a week-long event into two weeks' worth of blog posts, I continue my coverage of the [Data Center 2010 conference], Tuesday afternoon I attended several sessions that focused on technologies for Cloud Computing.

 (Note: It appears I need to repeat this. The analyst company that runs this event has kindly asked me not to mention their name on this blog, display any of their logos, mention the names of any of their employees, include photos of any of their analysts, include slides from their presentations, or quote verbatim any of their speech at this conference. This is all done to protect and respect their intellectual property that their members pay for. The pie charts included on this series of posts were rendered by Google Charting tool.)

Converging Storage and Network Fabrics

 The analysts presented a set of alternative approaches to consolidating your SAN and LAN fabrics. Here were the choices discussed:

Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) - This requires 10GbE with Data Center Bridging (DCB) standards, what IBM refers to as Converged Enhanced Ethernet (CEE). Converged Network Adapters (CNAs) support FC, iSCSI, NFS and CIFS protocols on a single wire.

Internet SCSI (iSCSI) - This works on any flavor of Ethernet, is fully routable, and was developed in the 1990s by IBM and Cisco. Most 1GbE and all 10GbE Network Interface Cards (NIC) support TCP Offload Engine (TOE) and "boot from SAN" capability. Native suppot for iSCSI is widely available in most hypervisors and operating systems, including VMware and Windows. DCB Ethernet is not required for iSCSI, but can be helpful. Many customers keep their iSCSI traffic in a separate network (often referred to as an IP SAN) from the rest of their traditional LAN traffic.

Network Attached Storage (NAS) - NFS and CIFS have been around for a long time and work with any flavor of Ethernet. Like iSCSI, DCB is not required but can be helpful. NAS went from being for files only, to be used for email and database, and now is viewed as the easiest deployment for VMware. Vmotion is able to move VM guests from one host to another within the same LAN subnet.

Infiniband or PCI extenders - this approach allows many servers to share fewer number of NICs and HBAs. While Infiniband was limited in distance for its copper cables, recent advances now allow fiber optic cables for 150 meter distances.

 Interactive poll of the audience offered some insight on plans to switch from FC/FICON to Ethernet-based storage:

 Interactive poll of the audience offered some insight on what portion storage is FCP/FICON attached:

 Interactive poll of the audience offered some insight on what portion storage is Ethernet-attached:

 Interactive poll of the audience offered some insight on what portion of servers are already using some Ethernet-attached storage:

Each vendor has its own style. HP provides homogeneous solutions, having acquired 3COM and broken off relations with Cisco. Cisco offers tight alliances over closed proprietary solutions, publicly partnering with both EMC and NetApp for storage. IBM offers loose alliances, with IBM-branded solutions from Brocade and BNT, as well as reselling arrangements with Cisco and Juniper. Oracle has focused on Infiniband instead for its appliances.

 The analysts predict that IBM will be the first to deliver 40 GbE, from their BNT acquisition. They predict by 2014 that Ethernet approaches (NAS, iSCSI, FCoE) will be the core technology for all but the largest SANs, and that iSCSI and NAS will be more widespread than FCoE. As for cabling, the analysts recommend copper within the rack, but fiber optic between racks. Consider SAN management software, such as IBM Tivoli Storage Productivity Center.

 The analysts felt that the biggest inhibitor to merging SAN and LANs will be organizational issues. SAN administrators consider LAN administrators like "Cowboys" undisciplined and unwilling to focus on 24x7 operational availability, redundancy or business continuity. LAN administrators consider SAN administrators as "Luddites" afraid or unwilling to accept FCoE, iSCSI or NAS approaches.

Driving Innovation through Innovation

 Mr. Shannon Poulin from Intel presented their advancements in Cloud Computing. Let's start with some facts and predictions:

 Today:

About 25 percent of the [world's population] is connected to the Internet

There are over 2.5 billion photos on Facebook, which runs on 30,000 servers

30 billion videos viewed every month

Nearly all Internet-connected devices are either computers or phones

 	 By 2015:

An additional billion people on the Internet

Cars, televisions, and households will also be connected to the Internet

The world will need 8x more network bandwidth, 12x more storage, and 20x more compute power

 To avoid confusion between on-premise and off-premise deployments, Intel defines "private cloud" as "single tenant" and "public cloud" as "multi-tenant". Clouds should be automated, efficient, simple, secure, and interoperable enough to allow federation of resources across providers. He also felt that Clouds should be "client-aware" so that it know what devices it is talking to, and optimizes the results accordingly. For example, if watching video on a small 320x240 smartphone screen, it makes no sense for the Cloud server to push out 1080p. All devices are going through a connected/disconnected dichotomy. They can do some things while disconnected, but other things only while connected to the Internet or Cloud provider.

 An internal Intel task force investigated what it would take to beat MIPS and IBM POWER processors and found that their own Intel chips lacked key functionality. Intel plans to address some of their shortcomings with a new chip called "Sandbridge" sometime next year. They also plan a series of specialized chips that support graphics processing (GPU), network processing (NPU) and so on. He also mentioned Intel released "Tukwilla" earlier this year, the latest version of Itanium chip. HP is the last major company to still use Itanium for their servers.

 Shannon wrapped up the talk with a discussion of two Cloud Computing initiatives. The first is [Intel® Cloud Builders], a cross-industry effort to build Cloud infrastructures based on the Intel Xeon chipset. The second is the [Open Data Center Alliance], comprised of leading global IT managers who are working together to define and promote data center requirements for the cloud and beyond.

Fabric-Based Infrastructure

 The analysts feel that we need to switch from thinking about "boxes" (servers, storage, networks) to "resources". To this end, they envision a future datacenter where resources are connected to an any-to-any fabric that connects compute, memory, storage, and networking resources as commodities. They feel the current trend towards integrated system stacks is just a marketing ploy by vendors to fatten their wallets. (Ouch!)

 A new concept to "disaggregate" caught my attention. When you make cookies, you disaggregate a cup of sugar from the sugar bag, a teaspoon of baking soda from the box, and so on. When you carve a LUN from a disk array, you are disaggregating the storage resources you need for a project. The analysts feel we should be able to do this with servers and network resources as well, so that when you want to deploy a new workload you just disaggregate the bits and pieces in the amounts you actually plan to use and combine them accordingly. IBM calls these combinations "ensembles" of Cloud computing.

 Very few workloads require "best-of-breed" technologies. Rather, this new fabric-based infrastructure recognizes the reality that most workloads do not. One thing that IT Data Center operations can learn from Cloud Service Providers is their focus on "good enough" deployment.

 This means however that IT professionals will need new skill sets. IT administrators will need to learn a bit of application development, systems integration, and runbook automation. Network adminis need to enter into 12-step programs to stop using Command Line Interfaces (CLI). Server admins need to put down their screwdrivers and focus instead on policy templates.

 Whether you deploy private, public or hybrid cloud computing, the benefits are real and worth the changes needed in skill sets and organizational structure.

 Well, it's Tuesday again, and that means IBM announcements! Today we had a major launch, with so many products, services and offerings that I can't fit them all into a single post, so I will split them up into several posts to give the attention they deserve. So, in this post, I will focus on just the networking gear.

IBM Converged Switch B32

 The "Converged" part of this switch refers to Converged Enhanced Ethernet (CEE), which is just a lossless Ethernet that meets certain standards to allow Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) that are still being discussed between Brocade and Cisco. Thankfully, IBM demanded both Brocade and Cisco stick to open agreed-upon standards, and the rest of the world gets to benefit from IBM's leadership in keeping everything as open and non-proprietary as possible.

 The B32 ("B" because it was made by Brocade) starts with 24 10Gb Converged Enhanced Ethernet (CEE) ports, and then you can add eight Fibre Channel ports, for a total of 32 ports, hence the name B32. These are designed to be Top-of-Rack (TOR) switches. Basically, instead of having expensive optical cables for Ethernet and/or Fibre Channel out of each server, you have cheap twinax copper cables connecting the server's Converged Network Adapters (CNA) to this TOR switch, and then you can have the 10Gb Ethernet go to your regular Ethernet LAN, and your 8Gbps FC traffic go to your regular FC SAN. In other words, the CNA serves both the role of an Ethernet Network Interface Card (NIC) as well as a Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter (HBA) card.

 (You might see 8Gbps Fibre Channel represented as 8/4/2 or 2/4/8, this is just to remind you that these 8Gb FC ports can auto-negotiate down to 2Gbps and 4Gbps legacy hardware, but not 1Gbps. If you are still using 1Gbps FC, you need 4Gpbs SFP transceivers instead, shown often as 1/2/4 or 4/2/1.)

 Here is the IBM [Press Release].

New SSN-16 module for Cisco directors and switches

 When I present SAN gear to sales reps, I often get the question, "What is the difference between a switch and a director?" My quick and simple answer is that switches have fixed ports, but directors have slots that you can slide in different blades or expansion modules. The Cisco MDS9500 series are directors with slots, the three models provide a hint to their capacity. The last two digits represent the number of total slots, but the first two slots are already taken. In other words, model 9513 has 11 slots, model 9509 has seven slots, and model 9506 has four slots. You can have a 48-port blade in a slot, so in theory, you can have a maximum of 528 ports on the biggest model 9513.

 However, if you want FCIP for disaster recovery, or I/O Acceleration (IOA) for remote e-vaulting tape libraries, you need a special 18/4 blade. This has 18 FC ports, four 1GbE ports and a special service processor that speaks FCIP or IOA. If you wanted two service processors for FCIP and two for IOA, you would need four of these blades, and that takes up slots that could have been used for 48-port blades instead. The solution? The new SSN-16 has sixteen 1GbE ports and four service processors, so with one slot, you can handle the FCIP and IOA processing that you previously used four cards, giving you three slots back to use with higher port-density cards.

 Even better, you can put this new SSN-16 in the Cisco 9222i. The model 9222i is a "hybrid" switch with 22 fixed ports (18 FC ports, four fixed 1GbE ports, and a service processor, so basically the fixed port version of the 18/4 blade above), but it also has one slot! That one slot can be used for the SSN-16 to give you added FCIP or IOA capability.

 Here are the IBM press releases for the [2054 models], and for the [2062 models].

FICON package for Cisco 9513 directors

 For our mainframe clients, the FICON package includes four 24-port FICON blades and 96 SFP 4Gbps transceivers to fully populate them. Here is the IBM [Press Release].

Cisco Nexus 5000 series for IBM System Storage

 The Cisco Nexus 5000 series is Cisco's entry into the Converged Enhanced Ethernet world, although Cisco sometimes refers to this as Data Center Ethernet (DCE), IBM will continue to use CEE when referring to either Brocade and Cisco gear. These are also Top-of-Rack aggregators that support CNA connections over cheaper twinax copper wires. Model 5010 has 10 ports that can be configured for either 1GbE or 10Gb CEE, 10 ports that are 10Gb CEE, and a slot for an expansion module. The Model 5020 has basically twice as much of everything, including two slots instead of one. Since 10Gb Ethernet does not auto-negotiate down to 1GbE, half the ports can be configured to run 1GbE instead. Frankly, that can be seen as wasting your precious Nexus ports with 1GbE connections, so you might find a 1GbE-to-10GbE aggregator that combines a dozen or more 1GbE to a few 10GbE links instead.

 Today's announcement is that in addition to 10GbE and 4Gbps FC expansion modules, there is now an expansion module that supports 8Gbps Fibre Channel. Here is the IBM [Press Release].

 Whether you choose Brocade or Cisco, nearly all of IBM System Storage disk and tape products can work today with Converged Enhanced Ethernet environments, either directly using iSCSI, NFS or CIFS, or using the FCoE methodology.

 As you can see, it took me a whole post just to cover just our networking gear announcements, and I haven't even covered our disk, tape and cloud storage offerings. I'll get to these in later posts.

After the Alberta community was destroyed by the April 2011 tornado, the city promised to build back stronger, safer, and smarter. The Gateway innovation and discovery center is designed to open up opportunities to the community. The $2.8 million building features more than $1.4 million in massive computer screens, interactive tables and kiosks that patrons will use to access a trove of information. iDesign Café has collaborated with the city, architects and AV companies for over 4 months to design the custom built double sided kiosk that will be the center piece of the technology center. The kiosk took us over 60 days to manufacture and is one of our favorite pieces we have made. The Gateway opens in June 2016.

Madeleine L'Engle Quotes About BooksQuotes about: Books
If I have something I want to say that is too difficult for adults to swallow, then I write it in a book for children. Children still haven't closed themselves off with fear of the unknown, fear of revolution, or the scramble for security. They are still familiar with the inborn vocabulary of myth
My writing knows more than I know. What a writer must do is listen to her book. It might take you where you don't expect to go. That's what happens when you write stories. You listen and you say 'a ha,' and you write it down. A lot of it is not planned, not conscious; it happens while you're doing it. You know more about it after you're done.
We don't want to feel less when we have finished a book; we want to feel that new possibilities of being have been opened to us. We don't want to close a book with a sense that life is totally unfair and that there is no light in the darkness; we want to feel that we have been given illumination.
When I have something to say that I think will be too difficult for adults, I write it in a book for children. Children are excited by new ideas; they have not yet closed the doors and windows of their imaginations. Provided the story is good... nothing is too difficult for children.
I used to feel guilty about spending morning hours working on a book; about fleeing to the brook in the afternoon. It took several summers of being totally frazzled by September to make me realize that this was a false guilt. I'm much more use to family and friends when I'm not physically and spiritually depleted than when I spend my energies as though they were unlimited. They are not. The time at the typewriter and the time at the brook refresh me and put me into a more workable perspective.
In reading we must become creators. Once the child has learned to read alone, and can pick up a book without illustrations, he must become a creator, imagining the setting of the story, visualizing the characters, seeing facial expressions, hearing the inflection of voices. The author and the reader "know" each other; they meet on the bridge of words.
It is all, as usual, paradox. I have to use what intellect I have in order to write books, but I write the kind of books I do in order that I may try to set down glimpses of things that are on the other side of the intellect. We do not go around and discard the intellect, but we must go through and beyond it.
When we look at a painting, or hear a symphony, or read a book, and feel more Named, then, for us, that work is a work of Christian art. But to look at a work of art and then to make a judgment as to whether or not it is art, and whether or not it is Christian, is presumptuous. It is something we cannot know in any conclusive way. We can know only if it speaks within our own hearts, and leads us to living more deeply with Christ in God.

Verizon to Change Mobile-Data Plans - WSJ.com
As long as they allow me to cancel my 2-year contract so I can switch providers, I'm good. Though, I would think that current customers' pricing and terms would remain unchanged. They can't possibly raise the fee for the same service without 'breaking' the contract.
It's not surprising and it is what it is. It's all about making more money as we all know just as we find ways to not pay extra for other features such as tethering and mobile hotspot.
I believe that if you have unlimited data, you can/will be "grandfathered" into that data package unless you choose otherwise.
Old news. They're introducing tiered pricing when they launch LTE. Existing 3G users will be grandfathered in if they change the terms for 3G as well.
If they change your terms like that mid-contract, you can terminate without an ETF.
When Verizon makes the official announcement it will take affect at the given date they have chosen. It will affect those who are becoming customers and those who are renewing their contract from that date and beyond. They will more than likely send a letter to their customers concerning this change.
I hope current users get grandfathered in also. But the article suggest differently, and as far as switching. Switch to who? Sprint? And how long before all of the other carriers do the same shit?
It won't take long for the other carriers to hop aboard seeing that more customers are using more data since the android explosion.
switch to two cans and a string
I've never tried that. How good does it work?
Not bad, problem is the dropped calls, and the coverage is terrible.
Yeah i guess the network isn't that good but it saves $$$ instantly.
While unlimited is great, as long as they offer a 500mb, 2gb and 5gb everyone(almost) should be covered. At&t's 200mb is too low I think, but they definitely need to offer something above 2gb.
That sux. I hope the loyal customers of VZW will get grandfathered also. I've been with them before they were Verizon! I've had the same phone number for 19 years! Back when cellphones were HUGE! and cost an arm and a leg to operate!
Anyway, seems crappy to me that they can change whenever they want to and we just have to bend over and take it!
Hacks me off....
Every time they have changed their plans MY plan remained the same (was grandfathered) until I renewed my contract. I have no reason to suspect that the same won't happen this time.
You can switch to a different carrier if you like, but you are going to be doing a lot of switching. This IS going to become pretty much standard with all the major carriers over the next year or two.
Honestly this doesn't bother me too much. I love my 3g but it isn't great in my area, and I'm around WiFi all the time. I could live with 200mb but that would be not worth it. Hopefully they be decent about this, and do like $15 for a gig but I highly doubt it, maybe half gig(500mb)
I agree, as long as I have been with verizon they cannot alter your plan if you do not choose to renew it. They try to sucker you in with the deals on new phones. I am planning on spending about 500-600 on my next phone buying it from someone other than verizon to avoid losing my unlimited data plan. If you make ANY change to your account after your contract is up you will default to a plan that is available at that time. rather than the one you currently have.
Sprint is the only major carrier that doesn't already have tiered pricing. Seriously...this is not the end of the world. When Verizon rolls out their plan and you see how it will affect you based on real information rather than speculation and conjecture, THEN run around like Chicken Little screaming that the sky is falling...until then, just chill out and enjoy your unlimited data.
Actually your plan and your phone contract are two different things. Some new phones may require a new plan but I'm still on an old Americas Choice I plan from 2006 and have upgraded to blackberries and driods without having to change my base plan. I've just had to add data. You can change your plan at anytime to a new plan without incurring a commitment, it's when you buy new subsidized hardware that you sign a 1 or 2 year contract. That being said, I'm guessing all LTE phones will need to have an LTE data plan in order to be activated which means an end to unlimited data.
I expect Verizon's pricing will be similar to AT&T's. 2GB plan is $25, then if you go over, an additional 1GB is an additional $10.
As long as they continue to improve and expand the network I don't have a problem with this. It was inevitable and they gave us a good amount of forewarning. It will be interesting to see how they handle existing plans as they haven't touched that topic at all and can easily break precedence in favor of starting a new standard.
Switching carriers won't exempt you from the tiered data plans, but you may be able to get better pricing on a different carrier. Either way I'm sticking with big red, their LTE network should be the bees knees.
every time verizon has changed their plans i have been grandfathered in. I now renewed my contract with them when i got my incredible and i got grandfathered in on the insurance plan ($5/month for insurance and extended warranty) and its currently $8/month for the same thing. so even if the plan changes, untill you upgrade your plan or add it on after you might get grandfathered in even if renewing your contract.
but this news is pretty lame. I think they should put a cap on it around 4gb for the 29.99 plan then you can get bigger plans if you want.
Meh, no biggie. As stated, you'd be grandfathered in with your existing device and plan until you reup your contract. You can sometimes also buy a phone at full retail without changing your plans.
From what I read in rags like the WSJ, the prevailing thought is that 3G data would remain unlimited and there would be some type of cap on 4G data under the new plans. I'd be very happy if the new plans turn out that way.
There is no point in being angry. It's a fact - this has been known to the community for a long time now.
LTE will spark the transition to capped-tiered data plans and the removal of unlimited data plans.
With how people use their phones (free unlimited wireless tethering didn't help I'm sure), Verizon and all other companies are forced to enforce this plan.
AT&T is actually doing it before Verizon.
Be happy that you will have unlimited 3g for another year and a half (assuming you purchased the Incredible upon released date).
It's the future for everyone. Unlimited data plans are the past. Capped tiered plans are the future.
There is nothing you can do about it and all providers will follow suit. Threatening to switch providers doesn't make you look savvy and will not fix your problem.
Unfortunately, you just have to get over it and move on.
tecnicailly a contract is a contract binding on both sides so if you have a plan now it will be grandfathered unless you change your plan. but still it would be enforced until the 2 years is up.

Just wondering. Is it an acronym or just a word? What does it mean?
is google broken?
Sapient Solution
it doesn't mean anything at all
Interesting questions, i just tried finding but no results so many its just an abstract.... SAPE one of the most loved words for me lol
I always get these double entendre wrong...ROFL
So here goes...
Sape is a genus of skippers in the family Hesperiidae.
Or maybe
Sapé AKA Kaliana is a nearly extinct language spoken along the Paragua and Karuna rivers. In 2008 a few elderly speakers were found. Sape is one of the most poorly attested extant languages in South America, and may be a language isolate. There is, however, no linguistics data on the language
Sexual Assault Prevention and Education
the name of first sape provider is sapient solutions , they shorted it to sape.
San Andreas Pornographic elevation
SAPE is short for sapient. the tag line of SAPE is sapient solution.
sa·pi·ent - wise, or attempting to appear wise.
so it means wise solution.
SAPE stands for Sexual Anal Porn Erection ....
Done with that...
no idea for internet stuff but for me it would be
sit and procrastinate everytime
or perhaps
stupid and pointless enquiries
LOL...Funny replies. If it's not an abbreviation of Sapient Solutions, then I guess we'll never know. Otherwise, thanks for all the replies
Not everything can be deciphered with Google. Apparently Google is useless in respect of determining exactly what SAPE (the popular russian link network) means.
It stands for SEO Is Dead.
I think I prefer "Google is in trouble"
SAPE - Sapient solution, BTW original name of the company and registered name is "OOO ВМ ВОСТОК" - LLC VM VOSTOK,
hope it helps)
Thank goodness they stuck with SAPE, because that VOSTOK sounds painfull
... imagine Google getting hold of you by the Vostoks? lol
Separate names with a comma.

My dear,
People are unreasonable, illogical, and self-centered. Love them anyway.
If you do good, people may accuse you of selfish motives. Do good anyway. If you are successful, you may win false friends and true enemies. Succeed anyway. The good you do today may be forgotten tomorrow. Do good anyway. Honesty and transparency make you vulnerable. Be honest and transparent anyway. What you spend years building may be destroyed overnight. Build anyway. People who really want help may attack you if you help them. Help them anyway. Give the world the best you have and you may get hurt. Give the world your best anyway.
It's going to be tough; loving those that hate, aiming to be better in a world that clamours for you to be mediocre, being honest in a world where lies get you farther, and rising up when everything pushes you down… it's going to be really tough.
I ask that you be tougher.
Falsely yours,
Agnes Gonxha Bojaxhiu

While not as young as Peter Davision when he took on the role of the Doctor, David Tennant is a young 34. He will probably need a 50+ year old companion after Billie leaves the show in order for WHO to be in compliance with this new legislation.
John Barrowman is only 38 which means that the mysterious "Gwen" of Torchwood will have to be recruited from the geriatric set as well. So we obviously can't trust all these rumours about RTD trying out teen pop singers for the part. Nope it looks like the writing is on the wall, Gwen will be played by Angela Lansbury.
PS - Torchwood was unveiled as a sexier version of Doctor Who, but I wonder if it will ever get as kinky as this film.

A question came through one of our internal distribution lists this week. A consultant was trying to create a policy rule in Forefront Online Protection for Exchange (FOPE) that would trigger on a message containing a credit card number. FOPE supports basic regex, so some possible variations are the following:
- \d\d\d\d\-\d\d\d\d\-\d\d\d\d\-\d\d\d\d - Four-digit numbers delimited by hyphens, such as 1234-5678-9012-3456
- \d\d\d\d\s\d\d\d\d\s\d\d\d\d\s\d\d\d\d - Four-digit numbers delimited by spaces, such as 1234 5678 9012 3456
Tip: These regular expressions can match any numbers in the format specified (not just credit card numbers), so be aware that false-positive matches can occur. Be sure to test your policy rules by using the Test policy rule action. For more information, see What is a test rule? under Policy Rules FAQ.
The Policy Rules help topic on TechNet is a good place to start if you are creating policy rules in FOPE, and Understanding Policy Rule Syntax specifically discusses regular expression syntax you can use to create policy rules in the FOPE administration center.
(Thanks to Stan A. for his expertise.)

French Vodka company, Shaw-Ross Importers, is ready to take the Russian staple to a whole new level of luxury -- by infusing it with real gold! The liquor is a fusion of purified underground spring water, 24K gold flakes, and some secret ingredients which the company has yet to reveal.
Luxury AND mystery? Sounds like a recipe for success! The gold-infused Vodka will be retailing for about $60 per 750 ml bottle, and will no doubt fly off shelves of exclusive stores.
"The shimmering flakes of edible gold that glitter magically in Gold Flakes Supreme's crafted quality bottle bring to life all of gold's most desirable associations and expectations," Shaw Ross reported. "Such associations include the alchemical symbol of perfection, gold as a symbol of wealth, and gold as an ancient emplem of respect," the World Gold Council elaborates.

By Stephen J. Ochs
Texas A&M Univ. 271 pp. $42.50
This is a classic tale about how the values of the "1 percent" shaped military leadership during World War II. After he graduated from Georgetown Preparatory School, Michael J. Daly's insouciant willfulness caused his dismissal from both Princeton and West Point; he seemed spoiled and wealthy enough not to care. Yet rather than disappoint his family, he volunteered for the Army infantry and fought splendidly from the time of the 1944 Normandy invasion until he was gravely wounded as the war ended.
Stephen J. Ochs, who teaches history at Georgetown Prep, has interwoven Daly's career with the rise of his Irish Catholic family and the Army's implacable drive across France and Germany. Throughout the narrative, Daly's tactical brilliance in leading a squad, a platoon and a company shine through. His repeated acts of valor rivaled those of the much-decorated Audie Murphy. After the war, though, Murphy became a moody loner. In contrast, Daly took on an ever-expanding role as a volunteer at St. Vincent's Hospital in Bridgeport, Conn., tending to the indigent and the dying.
His daughter summed up Daly's life by calling war "the one time in life when you are willing to sacrifice everything for the guy alongside of you. . . . You had a cause greater than yourself."
