What Dryden said was this, "Great wits are oft to madness near allied"; and that is true. It is the pure promptitude of the intellect that is in peril of a breakdown. Also people might remember of what sort of man Dryden was talking. He was not talking of any unworldly visionary like Vaughan or George Herbert. He was talking of a cynical man of the world, a sceptic, a diplomatist, a great practical politician. Such men are indeed to madness near allied. Their incessant calculation of their own brains and other people's brains is a dangerous trade. It is always perilous to the mind to reckon up the mind. A flippant person has asked why we say, "As mad as a hatter." A more flippant person might answer that a hatter is mad because he has to measure the human head. - G.K. Chesterton, Orthodoxy

Essex police have launched an investigation into allegations of historic sex abuse within the county's Fire and Rescue Service.
An investigation has been launched into allegations of historic sexual abuse at Essex Fire and Rescue Service.
During an internal investigation, senior managers were made aware of allegations of potential criminal activity within the service.
These matters were alleged to have happened some time ago but, due to their serious nature and following clear legal advice, managers referred the matter to Essex Police.
Since then, the service has been co-operating fully with the police inquiry and has advised staff to do the same.
While this investigation continues, it would be inappropriate for us to comment further.
Essex Police confirmed a "number of people" have been spoken to by officers from the Kent and Essex Serious Crime Directorate but so far no arrests have been made.

We have booked a courtyard suite at JB for July and have a few questions
We may have an opportunity to upgrade and was wondering if we were offered a pool suite upgrade should we stick with the courtyard suite?
What resort restaurant food choices and drink choices should not be missed?
Has anyone had the picnic lunch at Pasture Bay and if so, what were your food and drink selections?
How many actual beaches are on the island and are they all accessible?
We booked the meet and greet ferry and wondered how often the ferry operates back and forth from the main island.
Comments on the resort and island would be greatly appreciated. Tell us what we should not miss.

Jumby Bay
We have booked a courtyard suite at JB for July and have a few questions
Report Abuse
First of all you will love Jumby Bay! I have always liked the courtyard suite. The pool suites are also very popular. The meet and greet service is the way to go--and you will love the entry to the dock. They have made this a great waiting spot (very short) for the ferry. Years ago I always felt isolated waiting for the ferry, now they have a phone, chairs an bathrooms. The meet and greet will coordinate your arrival ferry. Not to worry about the ferry it runs every hour from 7am to 11 pm. Its only an 8 minute trip.
Jumby Beach is the main beach, very calm, chairs spaced far apart, and a happy beach bar. They will serve you all day!
Nice beach service too. I love the laughter in the evening from the lovely little bar. Jenny has been on the island forever--and is a true gem!
Pasture Beach is rocky, its fun to go over there for an evening bike ride--walk the beach and see all the stunning private homes. A picnic might be fun--the kitchen will give you a nice choice I am sure.
There are 3 main beaches--but Jumby Beach is the best and has
the beach bar, raft, swim ropes. I love this beach. Harbor Beach is fun to ride and see, there are more homes there and the staff dock. Actually there are paths around the whole island--great for hikes and bike rides.
I am not sure if all the restaurants (3) are open in July. The Pool Grille is open for lunch---love the setting. Veranda is your breakfast dining, lunch and dinner. The Estate House is lovely--love the elegant bar. On Sunday they have a White Night on the beach grilling and buffet. The Jumby punch is one of our favorites, and the fruit smoothies on the beach are very refreshing. Your wish is their command. All very nice.
The whole setting is very much a private club, where you will feel like an elegant member. The service and staff are wonderful. Its so peaceful and private. I know you will enjoy!!
Report Abuse
Thank you for the detail provided in your response and Jumby punch it is. Cheers.

Chinese Silkies are believed to have originated in Asia, although despite the name, it is unclear whether it was in China, Japan or India. Amongst his many other exploits, Marco Polo is believed to have introduced this bird to the western world sometime between 1254 and 1324.
The Silkies unusual feathering is due to the lack of the barbs which would normally hold the webs of the feather together, thus producing long masses of soft 'silvery threads'. As a result of this, the silkie cannot fly & therefore is easily contained. Their feathers appear to look like hair, they also have black skin, bones, five toes and feathers on their feet, mulberry colored walnut shaped combs, light turquoise almost iridescent looking earlobes all combine to make Silkies one of the most unusual breeds of poultry.

Could have sworn I'd posted about boring stuff, such as HW, but it's not here. Must have forgotten to click on submit reply.
Had to watch Monty Don in bed. Sitting room satellite isn't working properly for BBC2, it's raining so hard the picture keeps breaking up. Let dog out for a wee, had to towel him.
It's too soon to plant them outside. I said in my last post that they aren't frost proof. There is a risk of frost usually until mid May. But you can start the tubers (they aren't bulbs, bulbs are like onions, daffodils) off indoors before putting them outside to get them going. Begonias don't like full sun, they prefer some shade. I've grown them in full shade. Which plants did you buy? If they are begonias then keep them on a window sill (not in the sun) for a bit until risk of frost is over.
Big change from yesterday's blue sky, grey and on and off light rain.
Morning all.
That is fascinating, Dove. Does it just nest on the gravel without actually building a nest?
Going shopping this morning. I am making sandwiches for 30 members of the orchestra tomorrow for the concert that OH will be singing in with his choir. Need the ingredients. Also need dog and cat food for when we are away in Norfolk next week, for the housesitter to feed them.
There are different sorts. Bedding ones are quite short, there are big ones with big flowers and trailing ones and quite a big one called Dragon's Wing. They are not frost proof so you have to dig up the big ones and store them. The little bedding ones you buy each year, not expensive. They will all flower right through the summer.
If the bed is always in shade the choice is limited for colour. Begonias are OK in shade. Busy-Lizzies are great but in the past few years the common ones have had a fungal disease. Most summer bedding likes sun and you replace it every year as they are annuals. The plants I mentioned are perennials, will come up every year, flower in spring and have attractive leaves afterwards. There is a great selection of hostas. Some of them have nice bell like flowers.
The pot is 50cms tall and 55cms wide at the top. Not sure about the rose, depends on time of year and whether I've just pruned it! Need a step ladder. Think it's about 10 feet in that photo. It's 6 or 7 years old.
Nanny Beach, I live in SW France, Dordogne. If you click on my name you will see my profile.
Linda, I have a salvia with blue flowers called Blauhugel, it's always covered with bees in summer.
They are spring flowering but have attractive leaves. Heucheras come in many colours and Brunnera comes in various frosted looks.

VMware deserves a lot of credit. Even though hardware virtualization has been around for decades in one form or another, we wouldn't have it in the x86 space without VMware. The hardware and OS vendors would have been happy to keep selling hardware that was only 20% utilized. VMware turned this industry on its head.

[Note from the author: This wasn't an article I intended to write right now. But after Alex Barrett blogged about a conversation I had with her last week on this very topic, my inbox has been flooded with emails asking "Did Alex really quote you properly?" and "Are you crazy?" The answers to those two questions are "yes" and "quite possibly."]
VMware deserves a lot of credit. Even though hardware virtualization has been around for decades in one form or another, we wouldn't have it in the x86 space without VMware. The hardware and OS vendors would have been happy to keep selling hardware that was only 20% utilized. VMware turned this industry on its head. They deserve credit not only for the move towards virtual hardware, but also for the whole VDI concept. (Even though VMware did not initially embrace VDI, the early adopters / creators of the concept couldn't have done it without VMware.)
So kudos to VMware for doing some awesome stuff.
But VMware will face some tough times ahead:
- Hardware virtualization is becoming a commodity, and when this happens, you end up with a lot of competitors, feature parity across vendors, and a price race to the bottom.
- The "easy" virtualization sales have been made already. What's left is the more complex stuff, with longer sales cycles and more complex deals.
- Now that VMware has "proven" the concept of hardware virtualization, and now that analysts have predicted this market will be <insert some random 11-digit dollar amount> by <insert some year>, many companies are entering the space.
VMware has awoken the slumbering giant that is Microsoft. Sure, there have been isolated cases of smaller companies successfully competing against Microsoft, or smaller companies partnering with them (e.g. Citrix), but in general, if you're a software vendor and Microsoft puts you in their crosshairs, you days are numbered. Microsoft will add many of VMware's core features into the base OS over the next several years without really increasing the price. And in addition to Microsoft, many other companies are entering the hypervisor space, including Citrix, Novell, Sun, Oracle, and even Phoenix Technologies (the BIOS makers).
Of course VMware has the first-mover advantage in the virtualization market, and conventional business wisdom suggests this can help a company win long-term. But history is full of wildly successful businesses who only entered a market after another "first mover" blazed the trail. Look at Amazon, Walmart, eBay, Starbucks, Microsoft--none of these was the first company in their sapce, and each of them dominates today.
I don't want to minimize the impact that VMware has had on the industry. But I think in five or ten years, VMware will be more significant for what they did in the 2000s, not what they're doing at that time.
I'll write another article tomorrow about what VMware could do to maintain their dominant position. Feel free to share your thoughts in the comments today. Here are some points to kick-start the conversation:
VMware is doomed
- They only make one type of product, and it's a market that everyone is entering.
- They're competing against Microsoft.
- People will want to buy a more complete integrated solution from one vendor, and that includes things that VMware doesn't own
- VMware is too dependent on other vendors that they're also competing against. For Citrix servers, why not use Citrix's virtualization? For VDI, why not use Microsoft's RDP or Calista? For packaging offline Windows VMs, why not use Microsoft's Kidaro to package Microsoft Windows? For software distribution, why not use the packager of your distribution vendor (Citrix or MS) instead of Vmware's Thinstall?
VMware will continue, no problem
- First mover advantage. ("No one ever got fired for buying IBM." We have that now in the virtualization space with VMware. VMware = Virtualization. Period.)
- Even though their stock has lost more than 60% of its value, VMware's market cap is still $18B (3x Citrix)
- VMware is owned by EMC. (Remember only 10% of VMware's shares are public.) EMC's market cap is $31B
- The virtualization market will be HUGE in five years. VMware only needs to grab a small slice.
- Only the actual hypervisor will become a commodity. VMware and others will compete on the value-adds, which VMware leads
What does VMware need to do to survive?
- ?? Let's discuss ??

"Slumbering Giant".....Stop with the big MSFT but kissing. Have you ever looked into the history that Microsift has in the VIRTUAL software arena. They have failed....now that another player joined and is doing it well, everybody has to say that MSFT is going to be better. Yes, MSFT will have a spot in the VIRTUAL game but for the big network designers, they will go with the better product.

Poison Lyrics
Artist: Motorhead
Album: Bomber
People tell me you didn't know better,
Give me sermons 'bout the things I do,
Come to love 'em, even wrote letters,
You know I even asked it of you, I said,
I've been doing Poison,
I guess I poisoned my life,
I've been doing Poison,
it's better than marrying your wife
On the road, the pace is getting frantic,
Specially when your poisoned out your mind,
A flight of stairs is like swimming the Atlantic,
When you're poisoned, deaf, dumb and blind,
I take my poison,
I guess I poisoned my life,
Been doing Poison,
I wish I'd Poisoned my wife
My Father, he used to be a Preacher,
Never taught me nothing but scorn,
If I ever catch him on the street, yeah,
I'll make him wish he'd never been born,
He was Poison,
Guess he poisoned my life
He was Poison,
I wish my mother wasn't his wife, no!

Text heard on Sample:
What did you say - they found another one?
- I can't hear you - this morning
another one floating
in the river?
talk louder - so you didn't even dare
no one can identify him?
the police said not even his mother
not even the mother who bore him
not even she could
they said that?
the other women already tried - I can't understand what you're saying,
they turned him over and looked at his face, his hands they looked at,
they're all waiting together...
Ariel Dorfman, translated Edie Grossman
