"The Great British Chefs app is where you can find them."

ERBSCAN / ERBSHOW - A Parameter You Might Not Know

Very few people spend as much time as I do down in the guts of individual SMF records. But for those who do ERBSCAN / ERBSHOW is an invaluable tool... ERBSCAN, issued in ISPF 3.4 against an SMF data set, presents you with a list of SMF records and some VERY high level information. Such as the date and time the record was cut, the SMF ID and the record type and subtype. ERBSHOW nnnn, issued from... [More]

I mentioned ERBSCAN and ERBSHOW in this post from January . This is a handy pair of tools for displaying SMF records - most notably the ones produced by RMF. For the uninitiated you type ERBSCAN in ISPF 3.4 against an SMF data set and it pops up a list of SMF records. Typing ERBSHOW followed by the record number formats the record - especially well if it's one that RMF produced. And the prior post... [More]

Great service! Food was delivered before the scheduled time.
I have already told several friends about Garden Grocer, and I haven't even left Orlando yet. Great idea, especially if you are traveling with children who might be hungry at times when meals aren't served or people with food allergies. Service was great and when one of our items was incorrect, a replacement was brought right away.
This was my third time using them for our Disney World vacation and, as usual, they got everything right. Timing is always perfect and order is always correct. I've never had a problem and will continue to use them in the future.

Target shooting prompts ban near Fishtrap
The U.S. Bureau of Land Management has issued an emergency order to ban recreational shooting on about 5,290 acres of public land near Fishtrap Lake.
The closure is aimed at target shooting that's been generating increased public complaints and concern from BLM staff, said Scott Pavey, BLM spokesman in Spokane Valley.
Hunting is still allowed in the popular recreation area 30 miles west of Spokane and just south of Interstate 90, Pavey said.
The closed area, which is detailed on maps posted in recent days at the public parking areas, does not include about 3,800 acres of BLM lands farther west of Fishtrap Lake toward the town of Sprague.
"The issue is public safety where birdwatchers or hikers are walking out of the woods on trails into meadows where people are randomly shooting across fields at targets," Pavey said.
"The amount of shooting going on out there has increased substantially. It's like shooters are just discovering the area."
The closure is likely to continue at least until the BLM can finish its area management plan in about two years, Pavey said.See a MAP of the closed an open areas for shooting near Fishtrap Lake.

Recent reviews
Good 3.7 /5 from 247 reviews
just an overnight stay, but the front desk clerk was VERY friendly, and provided treats for our new puppy. Would definitely consider staying again in the future.
We have stayed at this property numerous times and have always been treated first class. We were on a first name basis with front line staff as well as managers. Everything was done to ensure we had a pleasant experience.
Hotel was situated perfectly for our shopping trip, and the room was great for our party of 5. They put us in a loft room which was perfect for us.
Nice place but needs some improvements. Front desk staff, 2 guys, need a little customer service training.When I complained that my fridge didn't work, they were very curt, took pleasure in telling me that "it's a beverage cooler", "not a fridge". Even though,on the website, it's called a refrigerator. After waiting 30 mins. for a bellman, I called again, explaining I had to get ready for a funeral and needed this problem fixed asap. A Very nice bellman came and corrected the problem. There wasn't a power bar in the room, so fridge was plugged into light switch and we unknowingly turned it off all the time! Yogurt, milk for coffee, cheese, meat for snacks, all ruined due to lack of power bar. Who knew? I dropped my glasses on the floor and when I retrieved them there was an old water bottle and a used kleenex under the bedskirt, not to mention the used coffee pod still in the coffee maker. I had to brew coffee in the bathroom, as no where to plug it in, again, due to lack of power bar. Spoke to the Housekeeping Supvr.,regarding cleaning issues and she was great! For a 2 night stay I think that I had to deal to deal with way too many problems. But, the price was right.
"Tower" is only 3 stories tall. When they said "tower", i was looking up to find it, but it's a newer wing in the back, newer rooms. First room we got was not cleaned yet, so we went back to the front desk and got another room, in the tower, an upgrade, more room. Plus we got a free appetizer for our troubles, so that's good. Easy walking distance to lots of restaurants. Mall right across the street.
Is the description of this hotel not correct? Tell us

ANKARA, January 10 /TASS/. The Russian women's volleyball team has won the final of Europe's qualifying tournament for the 2016 Olympics and has won the right to go to the 2016 Olympics in Rio de Janeiro. The Russian women defeated their Dutch rivals 3-1 in a match that took place in Ankara, Turkey.
The Dutch women's team will now play in the world qualifiers in Japan in May-June 2016 along with Italy, whose women's team was third at the European qualifying tournament.
Soviet and Russian women's volleyball teams have taken part in almost all Olympic volleyball tournaments except for the 1984 Olympic Games in Los Angeles, USA, which the Soviet Union boycotted for political reasons. The Soviet Women's Volleyball Team won four Olympic tournaments in 1968, 1972, 1980 and 1988. It was a silver medalist at the 1964 and 1972 Olympic Games. The Unified team (of the former Soviet republics) was second at the 1992 Olympic Games in Barcelona.
The victory at the 2000 Olympic Games in Sydney, Australia, and the 2004 Olympic Games in Athens, Greece, were the best achievements of the Russian women's national volleyball team. The Russian women were third at the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta. They showed a weaker performance at the two last Olympic Games (in 2008 in Beijing and in 2012 in London) when they dropped out in the quarterfinals.

MONTREAL – It may not have been as entertaining as the pre-fight media conference call, but Nick Diaz and Georges St-Pierre still had some verbal fireworks – and "wolf tickets" – ahead of UFC 158.
St-Pierre (23-2 MMA, 17-2 UFC) and Diaz (26-8 MMA, 7-5 UFC) meet for St-Pierre's welterweight title in Saturday's main event, which takes place at Bell Centre in the champ's home city of Montreal.
At Thursday's pre-event news conference at Bell Centre, Diaz went off on a few more tangents over his Wednesday decision to skip an open workout session for fans and the media, asked St-Pierre if he had ever had a gun pointed at his head and found a way to insinuate the champion was using steroids.
Through it all, St-Pierre remained mostly composed, but still had moments where he questioned where Diaz's rants were coming from – and reminded him he's not scared.
The news conference also was attended by UFC President Dana White, co-main event fighters Carlos Condit and Johny Hendricks and featured welterweights Jake Ellenberger and Nate Marquardt – though with all the hype around GSP-Diaz, you'd hardly know it.
Check out the full video of Thursday's news conference above.

One of the challenges in scaling modern data centers rises directly from an increase in network complexity over the past few years. We can argue why complexity has increased, but it's reasonable to say that scaling data centers means more boxes - more servers, more network gear, more middle boxes - and every device (or service) you add increases the complexity of the topology and thus the operational overhead to manage it. Organizations agree - things are somewhat or substantially getting more complex.
Software-defined architectures attempt to answer this challenge (among several others) by operationalizing the network. By using APIs to orchestrate provisioning processes and enable the integration necessary to make use of actionable monitoring data generated by various systems across the data center, software-defined architectures accelerate application deployments and reduce risk by eliminating a source of error - manual configuration.
Now, you might think that's where it all ends. But it doesn't. Because the way in which an API is presented and used to enable automation and orchestration can actually introduce the very same complexity that it attempts to address in the first place.
There are basically two ways to approach provisioning and orchestration: application-driven or feature-driven.
Feature-Driven Orchestration
Feature-driven orchestration is so named because the granularity of the API is, basically, at a feature (or capability) level. What that means is that the API exposes individual configuration options and automation systems must invoke each one (often in the right order) to achieve the desired result.
Something like a simple load balancing service is simple only from the perspective of execution, not configuration. A load balancing service requires a virtual IP address (the end point to which clients connect), a pool of resources (each with their own IP addresses and potentially VLAN membership), an algorithm and any associated thresholds and metrics that may be required and health monitors to ensure compliance with availability and performance expectations.
You can imagine that, if the number of applications being load balanced by this service is large enough, that the number of repetitive steps required to configure the service will become as unwieldy as a manual configuration.
The same is true of other application services typically provided by the network, such as those concerned with performance, security and access. Each has a unique set of "steps" that must be performed in the right order to provision a service.
Feature-driven orchestration requires the provisioning engine (or orchestration system) to drive each and every step. That adds complexity to an already complex process, because you really are just tossing a thin veneer of "automation" over an existing method of configuration. Feature-driven orchestration is pretty much manual configuration (line by line) driven by a script. Instead of worrying about fat-fingering a parameter, now you have to worry about catching fifteen or twenty different exceptions and status results and handling them properly from a script.
Application-Driven Orchestration
Application-driven orchestration, on the other hand, takes advantage of constructs like service templates and policies to enable a less complex method of integration with provisioning and orchestration systems.
Rather than focus on encapsulating commands into API calls as is the case with feature-driven orchestration, application-driven orchestration focuses on aggregating only the data necessary to execute a provisioning workflow. This data is encoded in a policy or template and handed over to the service to be acted upon. The service takes the policy or template and manages the provisioning process internally, ensuring that the expected order of operations is followed and eliminating the need for operators to handle exceptions and corner cases and special status codes themselves.
Application-driven orchestration offers a safer and more efficient approach to provisioning.
An application-driven orchestration approach not only accelerates application deployment and maintains a lower risk profile but it also enables application migration across disparate environments.
Configuring a service in one environment, driven by a specific provisioning or orchestration engine, is a very specific task. Moving the application and the service to, say,a cloud environment would mean duplicating that same effort again with another provisioning or orchestration engine.
An application-driven approach that leverages templates and policies, on the other hand, can make it possible to migrate an application without incurring the cost and time associated with the repetitive integration work required by feature-driven orchestration. The policy or template can migrate with the application and easily be used to provision the same services - with the same characteristics - in the cloud environment, without incurring a whole lot of time or effort.
APis are a good thing. They're a key enabler of software-defined architectures like SDDC, cloud and SDN. But API-enabling infrastructure doesn't necessarily mean only on a checkbox and radio-button basis. That can be valuable but it can also lead to integration efforts that are just as complex (or more so) than their manual counterparts. A template or policy-based (application-driven) approach coupled with an API through which to deliver and execute such constructs results in a much cleaner, more consistent and stable means of integrating provisioning processes into the greater software-defined architecture.

A recap of Wednesday night's open of AFI Docs with Alex Gibney's "Zero Days" and highlights of what's to come.
"First, do no harm," the Hippocratic Oath admonishes doctors. By this standard, Dr. Robert Dalrymple must have been one of the few practitioners of the Victorian era with a sterling record. He knew no more than most other doctors of his time and was treating a condition that didn't exist, female hysteria. But give the doctor his due. His treatments consisted of inducing orgasms in his patients, and he didn't lose a one. In fact, his waiting room was usually jammed.
Tanya Wexler's quietly saucy "Hysteria" takes place in London at a time when medical authorities didn't know the word for or the concept of "orgasm," and apparently many women never experienced them. His treatments consisted of modestly covering a patient's private regions with a little tent, reaching delicately beneath it and using digital stimulation to effect a cure. How he hit upon this method must be attributed to sheer genius.
We meet an ambitious young doctor named Mortimer Granville (Hugh Dancy), who has become nearly unemployable because of his habit of questioning the orthodoxy of the time. Desperate for work, he applies at the household of Dalrymple (Jonathan Pryce), who has more patients than he can handle. This also introduces him to the Dalrymple daughters, Charlotte (Maggie Gyllenhaal), a social activist, and the dutiful Emily (Felicity Jones), a student of phrenology who's also searching for a husband. Charlotte flatly rejects her father's theories as crackpot and his treatments as suspect, but uses family money to support her work among the London poor. Mortimer is intended to marry one daughter and falls in love with the other.
Curing hysteria is not a practice without its drawbacks, and Mortimer treats his patients with such dedication that he comes down with what was not then known as carpal tunnel syndrome. In despair, he consults his droll and dubious friend, Edmund St. John-Smythe (Rupert Everett), who happens to be toying with an electrically powered duster. They try it on Mortimer's afflicted area, a light bulb illuminates over Mortimer's head, and the vibrator is invented.
This milestone in human progress has never received the respect it deserves, and yet vibrators have been selling widely and well ever since, even in the early Sears catalogs. They were advertised with such euphemisms as "personal massagers" for aches and pains, although why most of them had phallic shapes was wisely left unexplained.
One of the pleasures of Wexler's third feature is how elegantly it sets its story in the period. The costumes, the sets, the locations and the behavior are all flawless, and the British characters in the screenplay by Stephen Dyer and Jonah Lisa Dyer are all masters of never quite saying what they mean. Of course the Dalrymple practice is quite ethical, because there is no such thing as a female having pleasure from sex; the exact nature of the complaint being treated is sometimes described as "wandering uterus," which for some reason makes me think of an albatross around its neck.
The film is based on fact. ("Really," an opening title assures us.) The performances are spot on, and I especially like the spunky Gyllenhaal, who with this film and the underrated "Secretary" (2002), has built up a nice sideline in sexual exploration. The subject of vibrators has been under discussion after the publication of The Technology of Orgasm by Rachel Maines, and it was Wexler's inspiration to see that the invention was all the more remarkable since it developed at a time when it treated a condition that officially didn't exist. That was in contrast with many then-contemporary medical treatments, which didn't treat conditions that officially did exist.
