Hello everyone. I'm Roberta, one of the new product managers here at Overleaf, and I want to tell you how we recently organized a REMOTE hackathon! You might be thinking of broken up conversations over a dodgy connection, people not hearing properly what is going on in the 'conference room' etc. etc. - we've all been there. But thankfully none of that happened. In fact, our remote hackathon was such a blast that we are planning on making it a regular thing.

Through a series of happy coincidences, Overleaf was able to support the recent 1st Annual Trent Mathematical Science Research Symposium.
Our sponsorship allowed us to offer an award, and 'most entertaining talk' seemed like a worthy prize! We're thus delighted to share the news that the winner of the Overleaf Award for Most Entertaining Talk was Skye Griffith.

Donald Knuth's 80th birthday on January 10, 2018 was celebrated by two events in Piteå, Sweden: the scientific symposium "Knuth80: Algorithms, Combinatorics, and Information" in honour of Don's career-long efforts, followed by the world premiere of Fantasia Apocalyptica, a multimedia work for pipe organ and video written by Don himself.

When I boarded my flight from RIC to MCO, I had no doubt I was on the right plane. There were a few families headed for the Orlando amusement parks, but nearly everyone on the plane was female, a little on the nerdy side (myself included), and clearly headed for a party. The Grace Hopper Celebration (GHC) is part conference and part job fair, but as the world's largest gathering of women technologists, the total experience is much more.

Fix-It Friday
Recently, the SeniorNet Computer Learning Center at the Springfield Jewish Community Center in Springfield held a "Fix-It Friday" program. Many computer users came in to have their computer questions answered individually on a one to one basis by the knowledgeable volunteers at the Learning Center. Some of the topics covered were: how to make mailing labels, how to work with .pdf files, how to use a laptop effectively, working with email and attachments and more. Everyone felt that the day had been successful!
A comment from one of the participants: "Now that I know you are here, you'll never get rid of me!"


text: A train in Pennsylvania, by Gustav GrunewaldA Poem for Mother's Day 'Lullaby' and Other Poetry by Joe Tessitore The Society May 13, 2018 Beauty, Humor, Poetry 29 Comments Lullaby When you sang to your baby boy did other hearts not fill with joy those few who just happened to hear? for even on their darkest day your lullaby would chase away every doubt and pain and fear the angels never sang like this nor heard the pure exquisite bliss of your song, most precious and dear The Journey My train of thought rolls down the track I know it's never coming back the station master waves good-bye a single tear falls from his eye the whistle blows, she rounds the bend the signal of my journey's end I do not grieve, I don't regret I take my leave and I forget The Stone of the Unknown, West Point Cemetery Ye Grave, Your word confronts me with a start and makes its way into my heart inscribes itself and will not leave so for this one I too now grieve who gave his life and even more is there a soul that can ignore unknown whose fame will surely last above, beyond and unsurpassed unknown for whom our flags unfurl unknown for whom the bagpipes skirl unknown but by no means forgot this hero, all that I am not… …unspoken but forever heard can more be said in just one word? The Poets Within each heart there lives a rhyme that transcends space and transcends time and in each soul exquisite verse spontaneous and unrehearsed the challenge through eternity to lose our selves and set them free Joe Tessitore is a retired New York City resident and poet.

Reply Joe Tessitore May 13, 2018 I couldn't ask for a better comment. Thank you so much! Reply Terrye May 13, 2018 Thank you for sharing your beautiful thoughtful poems. Evan M. May 13, 2018 Thank you, Joe, for the wonderful poetry. "The Journey" strikes me most as a I enter middle age and say goodbye to my youth. A sublime poem. My own Mother's Day poem to add below (composed with the help of my 9-year-old daughter)… Mother's Day, May, 2018 The Mother stands above the fray, Where shines for her our love this day. For when the nights are dim and gray, And when we wish dawn's rim of day Would come to warm the cold away, Our thoughts of her unfold to say, "I wish her near to hold, to stay. The joy she brings is gold always!" Reply Joe Tessitore May 13, 2018 Thank you for your wonderful comments and your beautiful poem. How blessed you are to have written it with your daughter for Mothers' Day! Can it get any better than that? Reply Amy Foreman May 13, 2018 Joe, these are all wonderful, as usual! I was moved by each, but, especially by the cadence and wording of "The Stone of the Unknown: West Point Cemetery." I wish this poem could be posted near that stone–I know it would affect others as it has me. Thank you for all of these! Reply Joe Tessitore May 13, 2018 Happy Mothers ' Day Amy❣ Thanks for your comments. "The Stone…" was special for me as well. I'm so glad you like it. I felt like it was a privilege to write it. It started while I was there and I was sure it was going to be a Haiku: Unknown, so starkly proclaimed from a cold hard stone Mourning doves reply Reply Amy Foreman May 13, 2018 I love it as a haiku, too! But the iambic tetrameter is perfect. Thanks for the Mother's Day tidings! I am blessed, most definitely! Susan C. May 13, 2018 Hi Joe, each poem came from the heart especially the Unknown poem. Each one has its own character. They all are written so beautifully with a lot of thought. Thanks for sharing the poems and your thoughts. Reply Joe Tessitore May 13, 2018 Thanks so much for your beautiful comments ❣ Reply David Paul Behrens May 13, 2018 Your style of writing and much of the subject matter are similar to many of the poems I have written over the years, including limited use of punctuation, which certainly works well in this group of poems. These poems are great and remind me of myself if I were to become a better writer. Well done! Your writing seems to flow easily from your mind to your pen and then onto the paper, making you a natural born poet. So, in honor of Mother's Day, to you, Joe, I would like to declare that you and I are brothers from a different mother. To all the lady poets out there with children of their own: HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY! Reply David Paul Behrens May 13, 2018 Of course, in terms of proper grammar, I should have said brothers from different mothers, but you know what I mean. Nice poems. Keep up the good work. Reply Joe Tessitore May 13, 2018 Brother David, I stopped using punctuation because my wife is a master of it and is always catching my mistakes. Thank you for your very kind comments. David Watt May 13, 2018 These are a beautiful set of poems, reflective and at times wistful, such as in 'The Journey.' I enjoyed each for their sincere responses to life. Reply Joe Tessitore May 13, 2018 Thank you very much! Reply Leo Yankevich May 13, 2018 These are all flawless, moving beautiful poems, Joe. Great work. Reply Joe Tessitore May 13, 2018 And you have moved me, Leo. Thank you so very much! Reply vincent May 13, 2018 Joe, This is a very fine group of poems. [eecumings?] Lullaby is tender and evokes a parents love which is so timeless. The Journey is so poignant: appropriate for one without a supernatural belief. Ye Grave is so timeless in our thoughts to those who made the selfless ultimate sacrifice. To intertwine the grave stone with the poem is perfect [skirl ? I had to go to the dictionary but it does capture a bagpipes sound] The poets gives me hope for my amateurish attempts. Reply Joe Tessitore May 13, 2018 Thank you, Vincent for your very thoughtful comments. I was pretty sure about "skirl", but went to the dictionary myself to be certain. Your writing ability suggests to me that you have more than hope in your corner – you have the tools as well. Reply Joe Tessitore May 13, 2018 You have, each and every one of you, moved me to the point of tears. As Amy once said to me, thank you so very much, from the bottom of my heart! I just realized (with a large assist from my wife) who you are, Evan M. I am truly at a loss for words! Reply James A. Tweedie May 14, 2018 Joe, Let me also commend you for your poem, "The Stone of the Unknown." While living in Hawaii I was privileged to officiate at one burial and numerous inurnments at the National Cemetery of the Pacific, aka Punchbowl. The gazebo set aside for these services stands surrounded by many "Unknowns" from the Korean War. It was my habit, whenever I passed that way, to randomly choose one of these graves and pause in prayer, imagining the family that grieved for the soldier's death without ever knowing what had become of him. I also imagined the soldier himself, his life, his hopes, his dreams, and the circumstances that led to his ultimate sacrifice. Your poem captured my feelings . . . including the tear. Nicely done, and thank you. Reply Joe Tessitore May 14, 2018 You remind me of one couplet that I wasn't able to work in: Is there a soul that can stand here and not be moved to shed a tear? Thank you James, very much. James Sale May 14, 2018 I particularly like The Journey, Joe – so simple and very beautiful. Well done. Reply Joe Tessitore May 14, 2018 Thank you James. Reply Fr. Richard Libby May 14, 2018 All of these are thoughtful and well crafted poems, Mr. Tessitore. I found "The Stone of the Unknown" to be particularly moving. Congratulations! Reply Joe Tessitore May 14, 2018 Thank you Father. If you capitalize "baby boy " in 'Lullaby' you'll know what my inspiration was. Reply David Hollywood May 14, 2018 Sensitive and elegiac poetry. Thank you. Reply Joe Tessitore May 14, 2018 Thank you David. Reply Juni May 19, 2018 I really love your poem Lullaby, I sing lullabies I grew up with to my young son every night. I am thankful for my friend Amy whom has partly inspired you to write it.

Eva Ayllón
"I always liked to sing, but I didn't know I was going to end up as a singer," Ayllón says. She first thought she'd become a nurse, but changed her mind when she was in her teens. Nevertheless, Ayllón still liked the idea of healing people, and decided to do this through her singing.
Ayllón began performing in Peruvian nightclubs in the 1970s, and by the 1980s, she was producing and collaborating with established Peruvian groups. In 2003, she received two Latin Grammy nominations in the "Best Folk Album" category, and in 2008 she sold out Carnegie Hall.
She says that the most difficult point in her career was when she had to perform when she was still distraught over the death of her mother. "I think we artists are like little clowns. We have to have a great temperament and great attitude during adverse situations like death."
Because of this perseverance, her music has made an impact on people all over the world. She says that some fans have even approached her after concerts to tell her that her music saved their lives. "Some people said they were going to commit suicide, but listened to one of my songs and felt revived," she says.
"This isn't vanity for me. I was born singing."
Junot Diaz
"I discovered my love for books when I immigrated to the United States. I loved books to death," says Dominican American writer Junot Diaz.
But success didn't come easy for Diaz, who before establishing his writing career, worked in a steel mill, washed dishes, pumped gas, and delivered pool tables. "For a Dominican kid from New Jersey, it was an unusual and impractical dream," he says.
Despite the obstacles, the idea of becoming a writer was something he wouldn't let go of even though, he says, "there was no sign that it was going to get better."
And his persistence paid off. Diaz is the author of "Drown"; "The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao," which won the 2008 Pulitzer Prize and the National Book Critics Circle Award; and "This Is How You Lose Her," a New York Times bestseller and National Book Award finalist. He has won numerous other awards and is currently a professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
"Part of being a young artist is being true to your dream. I don't think I would give advice to young writers of color, but I will give advice to young people of color with a dream: there is nothing in the world that makes the dream easy except the love of the practice. I had to constantly rekindle my love of reading and find ways to honor that love."
Sandra Andino
Sandra Andino was in her mid-20s when she decided to pursue photography. She first received her Bachelor of Arts in psychology from the University of Puerto Rico, then moved to move to Philadelphia to attend graduate school at Temple University. During this time, she started to meet other artists. "I realized it was my calling," she says.
Though her family always encouraged her to be creative, they didn't think she should pursue photography as a career. "Making a career out of making art wasn't something my family understood."
She has now shown her work at several galleries and has served as an arts administrator in agencies such as Taller Puertorriqueño, WHYY-TV, Brooklyn Children's Museum, Bed-Stuyvesant Restoration Corporation and others.
For a long time, Andino said she had a 9 to 5 job and practiced her art on the side, but she recently decided to dedicate herself to her photography full time.
"Despite what others might say, stay focused, centered, and positive," she says. "If you give it value, then others will."
Nilton Borges, Jr.
Chef Nilton Borges Jr. grew up cooking with his mother and grandmother. "I always had an affinity for food," he says.
And though he was passionate about cooking, Borges didn't decide to become a chef at first. "Growing up in Brazil and being black, there was always that image that you have to have a position with more status." Borges attended medical school in Brazil, but when he was 20, however, he decided to move to New York to look for other options.
His first job in New York was as a bathroom attendant at a music venue, but eventually, Borges ended up in kitchens. "I started as a dishwasher and working in kitchens for free," he says. After working in restaurants for eight years, he decided to go culinary school.
Borges is now the executive chef at Amali, a Greek restaurant "dedicated to supporting sustainable farming, viniculture and design," which has won many awards including New and Notable Newcomer in Wine & Spirits Magazine, 2012, and Diner's Choice Mediterranean Restaurant, Tri-State Area, 2012
"I've been blessed with the people I work with and the place where I work," Borges says. "I'm successful by doing what I intended to do."
He believes that to succeed in the culinary world, you should always focus on your skills. "Always try to move to places where you can learn. Never follow the money," he says.

Colorado has seen the face of climate change
By Susan Nedell
Guest Commentary
On Wednesday, Coloradans have the chance to weigh in on the importance of addressing climate change, when officials lend an ear at the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's regional headquarters in Denver.
Perhaps the best place to start would be to simply suggest we all take a look out the window.
Reeling from the ravages of drought, heat, wildfires and floods, the people of Colorado have already seen the face of climate change. It's right here, right now. It's hurting our economy, imperiling our health and threatening our future. And we have an obligation to stand up and protect the next generation from this widening scourge.

Nishaat Vasi, MathWorks
Many engineers test their algorithm models in simulation. Through simulation they identify design and requirement errors in their model before generating production code. However, eliminating design errors remains a challenge and extensive testing with 100 percent coverage may still result in a design that contains robustness errors such as overflows and divide-by-zero. Some of these errors may reveal themselves under rare conditions and could be time consuming to debug. They may be induced by certain calibration values and only be found on the HIL bench or in a test vehicle. This presentation illustrates a method for detecting and eliminating such design errors using Simulink Design Verifier™.

Long not been heard from Ade Fitria Sechan, photo model and MTV VJ 90s era was ready to return to the entertainment world. Back into the world of entertainment options chosen by her husband after the marriage foundered, and returned to Indonesia.
"Since getting married, I did move in Singapore. There's just stay with my husband and children. It's really through it myself because I'm raising my two without a helper," ahe said when met at Studio Palem, Mampang, Jaksel.
She decision to divorce, finally drove her back from the land of the White Lions into the ground water. "Initially heavy yes, I'm also sad. But most importantly my children with me. I do not want to be bothered taking care of property gono-gini. Well after in Indonesia, I could teach in an international kindergarten school. It's where my first son Rafi school.

Actually, sorry, should be at home with the maid. But I give meaning to them, that moms need to realize their dream of saving.

Other support flowing from his mother and his sister, Sarah Sechan. "Sarah was just what you so much input. Because I'm old vacuum, so I can update the entertainment world from him," she concluded.

Elements Of Style
And Here We Go Again….
We have started the process of picking finishes and getting bids on our phase two renovation and addition on our house. This one is gonna be a DOOZY as it's a big, expensive (to me) job but one that takes this house from being livable to truly functional and enjoyable for us. Don't get me wrong, I adore my kitchen and new bathroom but having ONE full bathroom is NOT my idea of awesome. We plan to knock down our garage with it's bizarre bedroom above (that you access through a teeny Hobbit sized half door) and rebuild a new garage with a master suite above, turning Andrew's office into the master bathroom AND adding a mudroom, pantry and laundry room off the kitchen. HEAVEN!!!!
But back to the bathroom- I've started plotting and planning and am pretty sure I've nailed down the look I want. This is a SMALL master, and since we never take baths we're opting for a big walk in shower instead of a tub/shower combo seeing as our current full bath/ soon to be guest bath has a tub if need be. I am thinking this time I'll go with brass. I just love the richness and warmth and we already have a chrome/Cararra marble bath so why not mix it up a bit?
I have been madly in love with Walker Zanger's Helsinki floor tile forever. And since it's a small floor I am hoping I can afford to use this in there. It's stunning. Pairing it with a grey vanity, white Caesarstone top (no more stains!) and two recessed sinks I think I'll be a happy gal. I looooooooove these Restoration brass rivet medicine cabinets, especially when paired with these Crate & Barrel sconces.
The shower will be simple with white beveled subway walls with white grout and white penny tile floor with darker grey grout (hides grime). AHHHH, I'm getting so damn excited now!
A close up of the plan….
Here are some images I've been using as inspiration:
That FLOOR!
Brass details really make me swoon…
More shower wall inspiration. The only issue here is that if I happen to be showering while any sort of storm is going on Baxter jumps in with me. You can imagine my surprise when I looked down from shampooing my hair to see a shaking, soaking wet little dog IN THE TUB WITH ME.
I like the warm grey on this vanity and I'm thinking the top will be an extra thick slab of Caesarstone's Pure White.
This is the sconce placement I envision.
This vanity poses an interesting idea- adding drawers under the open cabinets under the sinks…. we need as much drawer storage as possible.
Brass faucets and bath fittings are hard to come by ( at least on a budget- there are some mind-blowing Waterworks ones but I'd have to sell an organ to get them). I found a nice selecton available in a variety of brass finishes (antique, unlacquered, etc.) on Newport Brass Faucets.

Clubbing with the Crank
Lindsay Lohan these days is not unlike Ebola Paris Hilton. You must be careful with the association. Because that sh-t will bring you down. And there's no benefit to befriending Lilo right now. Maybe anymore. Especially not with a career as hot as Sam Worthington's.
Although he's not my quiver preference, there is no doubt that Worthington doesn't have to wait around long for phone calls these days, if at all. He was in LA last night, without his girlfriend The Fringe, hanging out at Trousdale with, um, a Roman Caesar-like fringe of his own. Remember when George Clooney used to rock that? Also spotted leaving Trousdale – a bespectacled Josh Hartnett who did Sam a favour and did not stand next to him.
And then the Lilo bloat came skulking out the back door. There are no reports so far that she had any contact with the other two… but you know, she probably tried. Hard. It's the only way she gets any play these days. Reciprocating however is another matter entirely. Lilo is a pariah.

They walked right past police, bodyguards, etc. without raising any questions, such as why that woman had a five o'clock shadow and an Adam's apple, or what that lump was that looked like an Uzi hidden under their clothes.
When they got to the Palestinian leaders' bedrooms, they kicked in the doors, whipped out their guns and killed everyone.
Oh, and lest you think this was a bad career move, one of the "women" was Ehud Barak, who later became Prime Minister of Israel and is currently Defense Minister.

We repeat: People died because they mistook this man for a woman.
The Israelis hardly invented this technique, by the way. In 1943, 11 Australian commandos, all white, disguised themselves as Malay fishermen by dyeing their skin brown and boarding a fishing boat. They sailed through 2,000 miles of Japanese-controlled ocean from Australia to Singapore. At one point they even traveled right alongside a Japanese warship without them noticing anything strange (which was good, because none of the commandos could speak Malay). They then took canoes right into Singapore Harbor, where they blew up seven Japanese ships before escaping.

So racism is OK as long as you have plenty of bombs and canoes.

Inspired by the 1960s Café Racer motorcycles, the Revi Bikes(formerly Civi Bikes) Cheetah is a powerful electric cruiser. Café Racers were developed British motorcycle enthusiasts of the early 1960s from Watford and London, where the bikes were used for short, quick rides between cafés, in Watford at the Busy Bee café and the Ace Café in London. The Café Racer represents speed, status and rebellion.
The Cheetah features swept back handlebars with stitched grips, a laid back comfort saddle, a high capacity battery built into the retro-style gas tank, and a massive LED headlight.
But looks aside, the Cheetah comes with a powerful 750W Bafang rear hub motor, a long-lasting 48V/13Ah or 48V/17.5Ah lithium battery with Samsung cells and battery management system (BMS), and hydraulic disc brakes from Tektro front and rear. A twist of the throttle will get you where you need to go - fast!
Our friends at Electric Bike Review really loved the Cheetah. They summarized their full review by saying that the Cheetah:
Ooooowheee! this electric bike is aces. it looks super vintage, like a blast from the past, and cruises like a Harley. Civi BIkes calls it the Cheetah, I call it "fun."
Before completing your order, check out some of the cool accessories that are specially designed for your new Cheetah.

As soon as you place an order you will receive an order confirmation email. The email include details about the order, and is your record that we have received your order in our system and pre-authorized your credit card for the purchase.
Before we contact the warehouse to confirm that the selected item(s) are in stock and available for immediate shipment, all orders are subject to fraud protection analysis. This protects both ourselves and the customer, by ensuring that credit cards are not being used fraudulently, and no ID theft has occurred. This process can take anywhere from a few minutes to a few hours. Upon fraud clearance, the supplier is contacted to fulfill the order.
The time between placing and order and having it shipped can vary from one day to several weeks. Some products are readily available and can ship almost immediately after an order is placed. Some suppliers, on the other hand, build products to order, so upon notification that an order has been received, they will assemble the product and ship it, usually 7-10 days (but sometimes longer).
If a product cannot ship within 48 hours of the order being placed, we will contact the customer to let them know what fulfillment timeframes to expect. If a product is on backorder, estimated shipping times are subject to several variables, including delays at border crossings.
If your item is on backorder or unavailable, we will reach out to you by email or phone, and see if you want to keep the order and wait for the product to come back into stock; cancel the order; and/or change it for a different item or items. If you cancel your order, we will void the pre-authorization and your item(s) are. If available for immediate shipment, we will process the charge and submit the order for shipment.
If your order is in stock and we process the charge to your credit card, it will ship within typically within 24-48 hours from the date of your order. We will send you tracking information within 24 hours of your order leaving the warehouse to the email address you provided at checkout. Please know that some suppliers will take up to a week to fulfill an order, but we work diligently with each one of them to shorten shipping times on every order.
If you do not receive tracking information, feel free to follow up with us at: firstname.lastname@example.com or by phone (toll free 888-883-3350).
All products are shipped via UPS, FedEx (or similar shipping companies), and may require signature for delivery. IF YOUR PACKAGE APPEARS DAMAGED FROM SHIPPING, DO NOT ACCEPT IT. TAKE PHOTOGRAPHS OF THE DAMAGED BOX, TELL THE DRIVER THAT YOU CANNOT ACCEPT DAMAGED GOODS, AND NOTIFY US IMMEDIATELY. If you accept a package that appears damaged from shipping, it will be much more difficult to process a return. It is advisable to photograph the unboxing, or even record a video of the unboxing and assembly process, thereby qualifying you for a Cash Back Reward of $100.
We work diligently with our customers to avoid warranty claims, and will seek to resolve issues amicably. Bicycles and scooters require initial assembly, adjustments and fittings, and regular maintenance thereafter, and none of these requirements are covered by manufacturer warranty. If fact, the inverse is true: failure on the part of the customer to properly maintain their new bike could result in voiding a warranty.
All warranty communication is ultimately between the customer and the manufacturer for genuine issues of workmanship or defect within the warranty period, and the supplier will repair or exchange products AT THEIR DISCRETION.
REALLY GOOD EBIKES AND ITS SUPPLIERS DO NOT TYPICALLY ACCEPT PRODUCT RETURNS DUE TO BUYER REMORSE. THEREFORE, BEFORE PLACING YOUR ORDER, PLEASE MAKE SURE THAT THE PRODUCT(S) YOU CHOOSE WILL MEET YOUR NEEDS WITHOUT REGRET. If the customer has not opened or used the item, and it can still be sold as new, the item may to be returned to the supplier (upon their prior approval) and Really Goods LLC will refund the customer once the supplier determines the salability of the item, and has processed their own corresponding wholesale refund.
All sales are final. At the discretion of Seller, orders cancelled after 24 hours may be subject to a 38% administration fee, whether or not your order has shipped. If your order has shipped, you (the Buyer) will also be responsible for actual return shipping charges. REFUNDS WILL ONLY BE ISSUED TO THE ORIGINAL PAYMENT METHOD USED WHEN PLACING THE ORDER. RETURNS AND REFUNDS ARE SUBJECT TO POLICIES OF THE RESPECTIVE BRAND SUPPLIER. Brands such as EWheels will accept unopened returns, but the customer will bear the cost of the original shipping, return shipping, and a restocking fee. So please, before placing your order, make sure this is a product you want and will not regret purchasing. Seller may cancel orders at their discretion.
The electric bikes we sell come mostly assembled, and many customers are fine completing the assembly process, which typically involves attaching the front wheel, attaching and adjusting the handlebar, attaching pedals, adjusting the brakes, and checking to make sure all the connections are secure and fit to the riders height and desired riding position.
But for those who want this done for them, we now offer free professional bike assembly with every ebike sold. How does this work? Well, you can contact us and we'll find a local shop to do the assembly for you, or you can simply include your local bike shop as the shipping address when you check out. Make sure to include an "order note" when checking out, so that we can do all the coordination for you.
Some restrictions apply. You will need to live close enough to a local shop where your bike can be assembled for you. The local shop will need to offer assembly services - but this is a very common service, and we have never called a shop that wouldn't do this for around $50. If it costs more than that, you will need to pay the difference. Once the work is completed, just email us a copy of the store receipt, and we'll refund you $50.
Not sure if this is for real? Call us now and we'll show you how it works. Call us toll free at 888-883-3350. Or send us an email to firstname.lastname@example.com.
Please note that this amazing offer cannot be combined with our otherwise incredible discount codes.
We love to hear from our customers. Generally we get great reviews, and that's super awesome. But if a customer has a less than perfect experience shopping with us, or a product is not up to their expectations, we want to know about it and try to make things right.
We work everyday to make sure our customers are 100% happy. Take a look at what they have to say about Really Good Ebikes and the products from our trusted family of brands.

The first session of the day for me was Brent Ozars Blitz talk on how to quickly get information on a new server. I have seen Brent's video on this and read some of his blog posts, but i wanted to see him go over the script in a session.
Brent is funny and has a way of interacting with the audience that makes his talks enjoyable. In this one, he walks you through the script, taking you through the list of items that he finds important to check when he first takes over a server. You can get the script from BrentOzar.com, or search Brent and Blitz in your favorite engine.
It's important to go over certain things in a new server, and i would agree with what Brent checks. He looks for backups, DBCC execution, jobs, privileged accounts and more. He has scripts that query the system databases to find out this information. It's a good practice to use these types of scripts to ensure that you have self-documenting information from your instance. It prevents your information from being out of date.
A few things I learned in here. One was to check for backup history in msdb since that can slow down your backup process over time. The msdb table for backup tracking isn't well indexed and can fill over time 30-60 days should be enough history. Another is to check for encryption of your databases. I typically don't work with Enterprise Edition so I don't run into TDE. However its good to know this and prep your keys for a DR situation. Nothing worse than trying to restore and not having those keys. Also, once you encrypt a database, tempdb is always encrypted. Even if you remove the individual database encryption. That's good to know. It might not e a big deal, but it is extra overhead.
I also found a nice check for objects in master or model, which isn't a recommended practice, and you might not think to look and be aware of anything that is stored here. One thing i was not aware of is a query to check for Enterprise Edition features being used in a database since you cannot restore these databases in other editions. actually you can, but at the end the restore process will throw an error and then fail.
I would definitely recommend this session if you find Brent speaking at an event near you.
