Hands-On Review: CommVault QiNetix
CommVault Systems' QiNetix is a little bit backup application and a little bit SRM, but it stands out as a tool to manage and improve backups.
QiNetix Aims to Move Mountains (of Tape)
|Product snapshot
Diogenes Analytical Laboratories Inc. estimates that nearly two-thirds of storage management efforts are directed to B/R. In terms of capital expenses, the acquisition costs of B/R software, tape libraries and tape devices are fairly obvious. The hidden budget-killer is the media itself, as those $60 to $80 tape cartridges add up quickly. Organizations that manage tens or hundreds of thousands of tapes are likely to spend more on media and media management than on everything else in their B/R budgets.
Assessing the costs of B/R
A high B/R job failure rate is typical, which is why it's a labor-intensive endeavor. Diogenes Analytical Labs estimates that nightly B/R job failure rates range from 5% to 20%. Storage administrators must perform "triage" on failed jobs each day to determine the cause of the failure, rectify the situation and determine when to re-initiate the job based on how risky it is to leave data unprotected. Moreover, tapes must be manually rotated in and out of the libraries, moved to off-site vaults and have scratch pools replenished.
Costs associated with media are more insidious. Our estimates show that most tapes are only 60% to 70% utilized, while 85% to 90% constitutes best practice. Low utilization is usually caused by two factors. First, improper grouping of jobs (i.e., jobs requiring unique media vs. those that don't) may cause overuse of unique media and yield unfilled tapes. Second, inaccurately grouping jobs with dissimilar expiration dates may result in media being retained for long periods to preserve only a fraction of the encapsulated data.
An effective B/R application should accomplish three goals:
- Reduce job failure.
- Reduce manual "triage" of failed jobs, or at least the impact of the failures.
- Improve media-use efficiency.
CommVault's QiNetix second-generation product is designed to improve B/R efficiency through reduced job failure and faster restore times. Because it's integrated with CommVault's Galaxy B/R product, it doesn't operate with other B/R products. Our tests were designed to determine how well QiNetix can solve the B/R imperatives vs. standalone B/R products.
Setting up the test
QiNetix is positioned as a foundation comprising five components:
- DataMigrator for hierarchical storage management (HSM)
- DataArchiver for B/R-related activities
- Quick Recovery for volume snapshots
- StorageManager for trending and reporting on primary storage
- QNet for chargeback and costing
Our tests focused on the reporting aspects of the product, the most useful element for improving storage operations. QiNetix is built around the CommServe console, which installs on a Windows server ideally dedicated to the product. The installation included a SQL Server database that stores configuration details. The CommServe console is similar to other storage resource management (SRM) architectures; it gathers information from the storage elements using data agents on managed servers. The data agents must be installed on any system that has connected storage to be backed up. Supported storage environments include internal storage, direct-attached storage (DAS), storage area networks (SANs) and network-attached storage (NAS).
|Control Panel:
Excellent interface: CommVault's QiNetix has an easy-to-use GUI with a Windows-like control panel that provides access to major system functions.
To conduct the tests, we engaged the Storage Networking Industry Association (SNIA) lab in Colorado Springs, CO. To exercise the product in as broad an environment as possible, we configured a sever farm that included Windows 2000 Server, Windows XP Professional, Sun Solaris 8 and SuSE Linux on an Intel platform. Storage devices included an IBM ESS F20 ("Shark"), a Network Appliance 800-series filer and 70GB of DAS. The tape environment was a Hewlett-Packard ESL9000 automated tape library with two LTO-2 tape drives. We installed the software from scratch; installation of the CommServe console, media agents and data agents went smoothly and took about two hours.
Understanding the logic of the product is paramount to using it successfully. We started by trying to set up and run jobs without studying the product, but quickly ran into problems. Our pre-release version didn't include a quick start guide, and all of the manuals are on CD. The lack of paper manuals is understandable, but a starter guide of some sort would be helpful as it's unrealistic to expect users to sit down and read the electronic manual before starting. It should be noted that CommVault plans to include such a guide with the product upon general release. However, the documentation is quite good and spending some quality time with it was beneficial.
Storage policies are the building blocks of QiNetix. Policies are created from the CommServe console and simplify the management of backup jobs. When a new system is added, the storage administrator simply "subscribes" the data agent on that system with the appropriate policy. We liked this feature because it ensures a more efficient use of media. Similar data is treated with a single policy and can therefore be scheduled, archived and expired simultaneously. Likewise, after all data is appropriately covered by a policy, the user can be certain the same data on a different system is equally protected. QiNetix generates an event warning if it encounters any problems.
Our only difficulty occurred because our configuration experienced host bus adapter problems. This resulted in stale configuration information residing in the console, which prevented us from running backup jobs. Manual editing was needed to correct the configuration, but an auto-update or discovery process would be preferable. Moreover, CommServe's error messages weren't very helpful, so we needed to contact CommVault support to resolve the issues. The support staff was knowledgeable and helpful. In light of this experience, it's important to note that CommVault recommends a site survey prior to installation, as well as professional-services assistance for new customers. We elected to have neither, and it's likely that our problems would have been resolved more quickly or avoided entirely had we done both.
The storage policy architecture also simplifies data migration and replication. Migrating older, infrequently accessed data to lower-cost storage maximizes utilization of premium disk. Moreover, this translates into reduced exposure from failed backup jobs because a copy of the data resides on a separate disk system until the data archive to tape completes successfully. This operation is essentially a disk-to-disk backup. Data migration and archiving have similar methodologies, thereby reducing the learning curve. The only difference between the two is that archive operations use tape as a target, whereas migration or replication uses SATA disk. Storage policies can be configured to automatically move data (via replication) to lower-cost disk and then archive it to the tape according to an aging policy. Although this may sound complicated, StorageManager makes the process quite simple.
We were impressed with the Java-based user interface. All commands are created and issued from the CommServe GUI. The console has a Windows-like control panel for configuring hardware, systems and other parameters (see Excellent interface). A variety of reports can be run manually or by schedule. Reports include media usage (e.g., element utilized) and backup job success/failure, giving the storage administrator a quick snapshot of both elements (see Quick stats from summary report). Unfortunately, the reports lack some of the graphing and exporting capabilities (to PowerPoint or Excel, for example) of other products. Nevertheless, vital data is available to ensure that media use is maximized and job failures are minimized. One criticism is that the terminology of the product is different from other B/R products and takes some effort to understand. But after assimilating the terminology, we found the product easy to use.
|Backup job summary report:
Quick stats from summary report: QiNetix generates a summary report that provides a quick look at how backup operations fared.
Performance and features
Due to limitations inherent in a test environment, we couldn't scale the product to the hundreds or thousands of devices found in many large environments. However, the architecture of QiNetix follows the highly successful design of CommVault's Galaxy B/R product. That is, when a configuration becomes too cumbersome, it can be split into smaller, more manageable subgroups. Centralized management isn't sacrificed, as information from all sub-groups can be rolled up to a single master console.
QiNetix shouldn't be compared to general-purpose SRM products, nor should it be compared to B/R job-reporting tools. QiNetix actually falls somewhere between these two categories. Given the tight integration with Galaxy, IT organizations probably wouldn't consider a standalone implementation of QiNetix. QiNetix and Galaxy should be considered a B/R suite, and be compared to these types of suites.
Although QiNetix isn't as extensive as full-featured SRM products, it generates a tremendous amount of useful B/R information. For example, it generates reports about the speed and completion of backups, alerting administrators to jobs falling outside the backup window. It also provides reports about holes in the backup operation to identify vulnerabilities and risks of unprotected data. It provides this information in almost any configuration or combination of storage devices.
Rating the product
In rating the product, we focused on these aspects:
B/R is the low-hanging fruit for reducing storage costs and improving operations. Nevertheless, this "fruit" is surprisingly difficult to pick. In many cases, IT organizations don't have the tools necessary to identify and focus on the most important areas. Organizations may be well advised to take a fresh look at their B/R environment as a whole, and CommVault is worth checking out when they do.

Potential Significance Of The Body Surface Mapping In Identification Of The Lqt1 And Lqt2
Search Medline for
|February 8, 2007
In present, prolongation of ventricular repolarization is the only known specific ECG criterion for Long QT syndrome (LQTS). Several ECG patterns which could help to identify different gene-specific variants of LQTS inside population of affected people have been described as well. So far their diagnostic value is still under discussion. Research for elaborating additional noninvasive diagnostic criteria is relevant. The study aims at evaluation of features of ventricular depolarization (VD) and repolarization (VR) in patients with LQT1 and LQT2 by analyzing the body surface mapping potential distributions of QRS and ST-T.
Patients and methods: The body surface potential mapping (BSPM) was carried out in 27 children (mean age 12.1±2.8) with congenital LQTS (16 girls and 11 boys). The family history, course of disease, results of clinical tests and genetic analysis (13 pts) were used for determining of LQTS types. The LQT1 was found in 10 genetically tested pts; and LQT2 was found in another 3 pts. Computer electrocardiographic system "Cardiag" (The Czech Republic) with simultaneous ECG registration in 80 unipolar chest leads was used. Isopotential and isointegral maps of QRS and ST-T were computed. Control group consisted of 20 children, aged from 5 to 17(14.7±2.9), without cardiac arrhythmia (7 girls and 13 boys).
Results: 70% (7) of genetically tested LQT1 pts revealed additional negative extremes during VD in the middle of ventricular septum and anterior wall of LV projections. The potential distributions during VR revealed additional positive extremes in approximately the same location in 60% of these children. Combined abnormalities were found in 50% of all LQT1 cases. In all three genetically confirmed LQT2 pts wide zone of negative potentials on anterior chest surface during VD and extensive zone of negative potentials during VR on the right and middle chest surface were found. The same specific peculiarities of VD or VR were found in 13 of 14 non-genetically tested children with congenital LQTS and only in 4 of 20 children in a control group (20%).
Conclusion: BSPM reveals specific abnormalities of depolarization and repolarization in children with congenital LQTS. This could be useful for identification LQT1 and LQT2 pts before performing molecular genetic studies.

When, in the course of human events, a singular driving objective reaches its lunatic culmination in a product, a certain amount of respect must be paid to its creators. In the case of Peel Engineering Company, that driving force was fuel mileage — mileage the likes of which Prii and Insights the world over could only dream. So compete was this obsession that risking the lives and limbs of owners was a trade-off they seemed willing to make. The P50 was produced in 1962 and '63 followed by the bubble topped Trident in '64 which we've covered before. At just 53 inches long, 39 inches wide, and 132 lbs, the Peel 50 was the smallest three-wheeled "car" ever produced. It was tiny enough to park manually, as shown above, with the the front or rear handle. Frugal was what the designers called it, batshit crazy is what I say. Thankfully, Peel went under before many of these death hampers could be put into the hands of smooshable citizens.

P.S. I'm a little weirded out by some examples showing two wheels in front as opposed to one wheel in front. I can't chase down an explanation, and it seems the two wheels in front versions are far more prevalent, but I like this picture better, so there.

Gloria Steinem: Pitting race against gender
From Reappropriate:
Since 2004, when rumours abounded over an Obama candidacy, pundits have cast this year's Democratic election as a battle of identity politics: will Americans choose a Black man or a White woman to be their nominee for president? And by extension, will this finally settle the debate over which is the more subjugated identity: race or gender?
Yesterday morning, Gloria Steinem, influential second-wave feminist, weighed in at the New York Times with an opinion piece titled "Women Are Never Front-Runners". I guess we can tell where she stands in this debate.
(Incidentally, if women are never front-runners, than how did Clinton get as far as she did on the "inevitable pseudo-incumbent" campaign she's been running that made her the front-runner for most of last year? I find the headline of this piece to be a wee bit of hyperbole.)
We've heard many argue that it's time for an African American president, and many more argue it's time for a female president. But, nowhere in the race vs. gender frenzy that has swept the nation has anyone challenged the very validity of the question. How can one compare racism to sexism – and if one tries, where do those of us who are disadvantaged both by our race and by our gender fit in?
In truth, the juxtaposition is disingenuous, divisive, overly simplistic, and ultimately harmful, because it redirects our attention away from efforts to break the White male patriarchy that excludes all the Others, but towards in-fighting where we all compete to see both who's more oppressed, and who will make it out of that "Oppression Box" first.
In truth, the juxtaposition is disingenuous, divisive, overly simplistic, and ultimately harmful, because it redirects our attention away from efforts to break the White male patriarchy that excludes all the Others, but towards in-fighting where we all compete to see both who's more oppressed, and who will make it out of that "Oppression Box" first.
Scholars like Steinem have only fueled these divisive attitudes. Though she writes, "I'm not advocating a competition for who has it toughest", Steinem opens her article with the observation that "gender is probably the most restricting force in American life". She continues by implying that the race barrier has largely been resolved, because "Black men were given the vote a half-century before women of any race were allowed to mark a ballot, and generally have ascended to positions of power, from the military to the boardroom, before any women".
While Steinem is correct in observing that women are still oppressed by the gender roles that expect us to remain in the kitchen over the White House, how can we compare those gender roles to the racist expectation that Black men be either athletes or in jail? How does that compare to the plight of Native Americans, who suffer from almost non-existent healthcare or educational opportunities? Or to the on-the-job harassment faced by Asian Americans seen as perpetually untrustworthy and foreign?
Steinem's argument that women were denied the vote for a half-century after Black men were made voting citizens ignores two truths: 1) had the right for women to vote been included in the 14th and 15th Amendments, those Amendments were unlikely to have passed, and 2) despite being granted the right to vote in the Constitution, it took nearly another century before the Voting Rights Act allowed the majority of African Americans to exercise that right in the face of profoundly institutionalized racism and apartheid. But Steinem essentially argues that these details are irrelevant: because women were not granted the vote when Black men were, Black men face fewer barriers today compared to White women, and thus are less deserving of affirmative action when it comes to the highest position in the country. By extension, Steinem suggests that if White women don't benefit from a step towards civil rights, than no one should – which is why we need a female president before we need a Black president.
Steinem further suggests that negative treatment (or impossible expectations) of Senator Hillary Clinton stem exclusively from a sexism "as pervasive as the air we breathe". She notes that a fictional Achola Obama (who, unlike Senator Obama, doesn't seem to have achieved anything more than state legislator) would not be seen as electable while Senator Barack Obama – by virtue of his gender, says Steinem – is. Not only does this ignore the very "un-electable Obama" argument that has been a core component of Clinton's stump speeches, but Steinem carelessly paints all criticisms of Senator Clinton with the same sexist brush. She notes "Clinton could not have used Mr. Obama's public style – or Bill Clinton's either – without being considered too emotional by Washington pundits". But, Hillary Clinton has tried: notably in Selma, Alabama earlier this year, when Clinton and Obama delivered back-to-back speeches in neighbouring churches. Obama's speech was generally heralded as rousing and inspiring. Clinton's was not criticized as being "too emotional", but too robotic and fake. In fact, I suspect that Clinton can't get away with Obama's or Clinton's style of speaking not because she's a woman, but because she's simply not that charismatic a speaker.
On the question of biology, Steinem again contradicts herself. Though she argues that sexism has remained pervasive because of how it is "still confused with nature" (i.e. women are naturally or biologically different), she goes on to underscore and praise Clinton's innate differences as a woman by citing how she has "no masculinity to prove". And when it comes to emotion, Steinem recognizes that Washington pundits are quick to charge female politicians with being "too emotional" but then she lauds Clinton for having "the courage to break the no-tears rule". Steinem seems to want it front-ways, back-ways, and every ways but Sundays when it comes to Clinton – she believes Clinton deserves our vote in part "because she's a woman", while arguing that Clinton shouldn't be seen as "divisive by her sex".
But the contradictions on how to consider Senator Clinton's gender seem to run deeper – all the way to the Senator's campaign. Senator Clinton repeatedly cites the change that will be affected by electing a female president, but then dismisses the charge that she is playing the "gender card". (By contrast, not once has Obama said that he should be elected because he would be the first Black president). Senator Clinton claims to be the candidate of feminists (indeed, Steinem herself basically questions the gender authenticity of young women for daring to choose a male candidate over Senator Clinton – going so far as to suggest that "women are the one group that grows more radical with age") and yet Clinton expected to ride the wave of her husband's accomplishments all the way to the White House. And in case we found out that she actually had very little to do with those accomplishments, she and her husband have carefully chosen to exclude White House documents pertaining to the First Lady's role during the Clinton years from the public eye.
Ultimately, however, Steinem's piece (intentionally or unintentionally) draws a line in the sand between people of colour and women, essentially disregarding the everyday racism faced by Black and Brown people, and claiming the Oppression Olympics gold medal for women. Further, by casting the debate as between Black men and White women (despite her imperfect creation of Achola Obama), Steinem renders the woman of colour invisible, reaffirms the binary Black-White paradigm of race, and demands we take a side in the epic battle between race and gender. Is it no wonder, then, that women of colour have long felt alienated by feminists like Steinem? Where do we fit when we're being asked to choose between Obama and Clinton as a metaphor for race versus gender? And how are we supposed to react when an incorrect choice labels us as "less radical"?
Gloria Steinem wants us to able to say we're supporting Senator Hillary Clinton because she'll be a great president and because she's a woman. But if we're really ready to take "equal pride in breaking all the barriers", then how can we be expected to make the call between voting for these candidates based even in part on their identity? Regardless of whom we decide on, by making the identity politics of our candidate a factor in our decision, we are implicitly establishing a "separate and unequal" relationship between race and gender barriers that only fuels the continued clash between race activists and feminists.
So, I'm supporting Senator Barack Obama because he'll be a great president. And, not because he's Black.

This is baseball, there are rules
NEW YORK — And it's those rules, so to speak, that are keeping Blue Jays general manager J.P. Ricciardi from shedding some light on all the Matt Stairs rumors. Well, "all" is an overstatement. Basically, Stairs is going to the Phillies, but the Blue Jays can't say so just yet.
No word on what the hold up is, but Ricciardi tiptoed around the topic today.
"If you're guessing that it could be in the state of Pennsylvania," Ricciardi said, "I'm not going to tell you you're wrong. But, I'm not going to tell you anything else."
Word is that the Jays are to receive Minor League left-hander Fabio Castro. Again, no confirmation from any Toronto types about that either, though. It looks like this trade will probably be finalized tomorrow.
Ricciardi did confirm that he's talking to the Angels about a possible trade that could send one of John McDonald, Marco Scutaro or David Eckstein to L.A. The Halos are in dire need of a shortstop and have two days to trade for a guy in order to have him eligible for the playoffs.
As for the other development here, young Travis Snider was in the starting lineup for the first time in his career. He was able to fly some family and friends out from Washington on short notice to catch him in his first big-league game, in Yankee Stadium, in his first-ever trip to New York, for that matter.
Jays manager Cito Gaston started Snider in left field tonight. He and Lind will probably shift in and out of left and the DH spot down the stretch. Ricciardi said the Jays want to see if they can potentially solve their need for a DH in 2009 with this combo. Otherwise, there's always free agency.
Snider is typically a right fielder. In fact, he hasn't played left at all this year, according to Ricciardi. But, in his first game in the Majors, Ricciardi didn't want him fighting those all-too-common rookie jitters between at-bats in the dugout as the DH today.
"This way, somebody can throw a battery at him or swear at him," Ricciardi joked. "Keep his mind off the game."
Snider was obviously excited to see his name in the Blue Jays lineup for the first time, even if it was spelled "Snyder."
"It happened in Triple-A, too," he said, shaking his head and managing a slight laugh. "Hey, it could be a lot worse."

I thought I heard the same thing on the radio broadcast about Snider having never played LF before… and it's wrong. I saw him start in left (twice) a couple of weeks ago in Syracuse.
Kid looked pretty comfortable tonight.
Well what did everyone think of Snider tonight.I missed him myself I watched a movie.
Hit the ball hard twice, once for a double. Struck out in the 8th looking with 2 runners on base and nobody out, in a 2-1 game. He struckout looking, but quite frankly I think we got hosed on that called, that ball was outside from Edwar Ramirez. The umpire is probably a Yankee fan.
I'm suprised how comfortable he looked, for starting his first game in Yankee Stadium. Maybe he'll do better with his name spelt correctly on his jersey, just kidding. He had a fine debut.
I agree, Snider got hosed on the call. Unfortunately in Yankee stadium that seems to happen to opposing teams. I thought it was a good debut, and I expect him to settle in quickly.
I'm glad they called him up now and I commend JP for doing so. I would like Arencibia,Dopriak and Campbell here. Let's play these kids, let Cito and his group work with them, see what we have and get ready for next year. Cito and his group will help all these kids immensely and short circuit the time needed to turn them into MLB hitters.
JP is wrong on Snider's playing position, he played either left field or DH all year, and last year played left field only. I cannot believe JP got it wrong. If anyone wants to confirm this, just check the stats at Syracuse where Snider is listed as a left fielder.
Here's an interesting move. Brad Mills was promoted to AA New Hampshire in late June, started 6 games with an era of 1.10, and was just sent back down to A+ Dunedin.
Mills, drafted in 2007, started the season at Lansing, earned a promotion to Dunedin, then to New Hampshire. His era for the year is 1.95.
Of course, the fact that Dunedin has the best record (.697 win record) in the FSL and about to go into playoffs has absolutely nothing to do with this move. I'm sure the reason is to give Mills a new pitch. lol
I agree gsumner. What this teams needs are position battles in spring training. Call them up in September to begin the process. Some of our veterns need that feeling of insecurity. Cito and company will have to assess our talent and depth in our organization. We can't be afraid to put pressure on some of our veterns that are not performing. Make it clear to them that if they are hitting something like .245-.260 with a little over of 10 homeruns, that they are replaceable. I'm sure we have a lot of guys that can do better than that at the Major League level.
Watched the game on tape but the tape messed up never saw Sniders hit shame on me for watching a garbage movie that the wife wanted to watch[I watch your kill them all movies with you you can watch a love story with me YUK]But I did see him strike out and it was a ball.
Burnett pitched a great game to bad the misfits could not come through for him.
It is now the time for the GM to give up on the season and bring up the young guns and start to get ready for next year.
Who would you guys like to see go to the Halos to have a chance for a ring
Scutaro and J.Mac are under contract for next year so if we trade one of them we can get something for one of them now providing we can get a player that will help this team better than they can next year.Of course Eskstein will give us a pick when he signs with another team next year it's a tough choice.

DHS Selects Stevens Institute of Technology for Maritime Research Center of Excellence
Stevens Institute of Technology has been selected as co-lead institution for a new Center of Excellence for Maritime Research (CMR) in collaboration with the University of Alaska Anchorage. The selection, announced by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Science and Technology (S&T) Directorate, will provide Stevens with $2 million per year for 5 years. The Center will collaborate with partner institutions including MIT, Louisiana State University, the University of Connecticut, Florida Atlantic University, the University of Puerto Rico-Mayaguez and Elizabeth City State University.
"This award comes after a nearly year-long competition that challenged our researchers and education staff to demonstrate the impact of their present work, and to articulate their vision for the next five years," says Michael Bruno, Feiler Chair Professor and Dean of the Schaefer School of Engineering and Science. "We are proud that the Department of Homeland Security has chosen our team to take on the serious technical and policy challenges faced on a daily basis by the Department and in particular by our primary customer, the U.S. Coast Guard."
The work conducted through the CMR will help the United States address challenges in the maritime domain. Increased and diversified use of maritime spaces is generating new security challenges and risks, and the potential for increased conflicts among maritime users, stakeholders, and interests.
Working closely with S&T, DHS's operational components, industrial partners, and other Centers, it will develop new ideas and research to identify better ways to create transparency in the maritime domain along coastal regions and inland waterways, while integrating information and intelligence among stakeholders.
"The funding is a significant boost to Stevens' R&D efforts in maritime security and ocean observations," says Bruno. "Importantly, the center designation affords us the ability to secure additional funding through DHS member agencies to pursue new but related research."
CMR will also contribute towards the education of both university students and mid-career professionals engaged in maritime security.

tcpdump command dump traffic on a network in real time. It prints out a description of the contents of packets on a network interface.
How do I capture network packets to a file?
By default traffic is dumped on a screen. To capture these packets to a file, enter the following command as the root user:
# tcpdump -i eth0 -w traffic.eth0
How do I read packets from a file?
The -w flag causes it to save the packet data to a file called traffic.eth0 for later analysis, and/or with the -r flag, which causes it to read from a saved packet file rather than to read packets from a network interface:
# tcpdump -r traffic.eth0

At The Plate – The Smokies could only manage six hits, but worked seven walks en route to beating Huntsville 4-1. Arismendy Alcantara had quite the day at the plate and on the base paths. Alcantara was 1-for-1 with three walks, four(!) stolen bases, two errors (oops), and a run scored. Christian Villanueva had the big blow in this one going 1-for-3 with a walk, a home run, three RBI's, and a run scored. Justin Bour was 1-for-2 with two walks, and a run scored.
On The Mound – Eric Jokisch was outstanding today going six scoreless innings giving up three hits with no walks while striking out seven to earn his second win of the season. Zach Rosscup was solid out of the pen going two scoreless innings giving up one hit while walking one. Brian Schlitter had trouble with his command in the ninth giving up one run, unearned, on no hits while walking two.
At The Plate – After giving up fifteen runs on twenty-seven hits a day ago the D-Cubs got some payback today. Daytona scored thirteen runs on twelve hits with seven different players registering at least one hit, the Cubs also walked eleven(!) times. Zeke DeVoss got things started at the top going 1-for-2 with three walks, a stolen base, a caught stealing, a double, and two runs scored. Javier Baez looks to be coming around at the plate as he had a monster game today going 3-for-6 with a home run, two RBI's and three runs scored. Dustin Geiger continues to pound the ball as of late, he went 3-for-5 with a double, a home run, four RBI's and two runs scored. Ben Carhart was 2-for-5 with two RBI's in the win.
On The Mound – The D-Cubs pitching bounced back nicely today. Yao-Lin Wang got the start going four innings giving up one run on three hits while walking one and striking two. Austin Kirk came out the pen today and actually went more innings than Yao-Lin in this one. Kirk went five innings to get the win, he gave up one run on three hits while walking two and striking out four.
NOTES: Kane County and Iowa were both rained out
Thanks for reading,
– George

Ocean Beach leaders want to see an end to the California city's annual July 4th marshmallow fight.
A resolution was passed at a town council meeting Wednesday night.
Legally, the town council does not have the authority to cancel the fight, but they hope the resolution will encourage people to stop supporting the event.
U.S. & World
On July 5, business owners and volunteers helped the city clean up an estimated 2,300 pounds of trash left on the beach after this year's fight.
Soon after, some neighbors and business owners say the event has gotten out of hand and needs to stop.
In previous years, most of the sticky mess generated by the annual event was limited to the beach.
But, as more people continue to participate, the Marshmallow Fight has spilled out onto the streets and sidewalks.

A Jury of Peers Focuses on Best Cinematography
With the American Society of Cinematographers' announcement Wednesday morning of its nominees, the Oscar picture comes into sharper focus.
Glaring is the omission of "War Horse." Janusz Kaminski's absence from the list is the second blow in as many days to Steven Spielberg's chances of a Kodak Theatre moment. Earlier this week, the Directors Guild appeared to opt for David Fincher and his "The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo." Now the ASC has followed suit, naming Fincher's shooter, Jeff Cronenweth, among its noms.
To a man (and they are all men), the five nominees have crafted handsome, evocative films. So the question might be: How much does the cinematographer's vision aid his movie's chances of being named the best come Oscar night? In that regard, Guillaume Schiffman appears to add more ballast to the on-again, off-again. front-runner status of the sumptuous, b&w silent "The Artist."
Martin Scorsese collaborator Robert Richardson gave "Hugo" fluid and vivid energy and, with the aid of editor Thelma Schoonmaker, honored another filmmaker's vision within his own. Hoyte van Hoytema's deceptively muted, utterly methodical work on "Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy" makes the return to John le Carré's Cold War thriller gripping even as it looks retro.
Evenso, for Mad Moviegoer the question remains: Has anyone made a lovelier film than director Terrence Malick and his ace Emmanuel Lubezki's "The Tree of Life"?

Forum Post: The Business of Border Security
Posted 6 years ago on June 23, 2013, 5:22 p.m. EST by GirlFriday
This content is user submitted and not an official statement
The fate of millions of immigrants is tied to immigration reform. But there are also numerous military contractors, subcontractors, and suppliers whose fortunes could be significantly affected by the bill.
Contained within the 1,000-page and counting immigration reform bill before the Congress is an estimated $4.5 billion in funding for "border enforcement," with potentially millions more added, which lawmakers say is as critical for reform.
The new funding will expand an immigration enforcement apparatus that already receives more federal dollars than all other federal law enforcement agencies combined, according to a report by the nonpartisan Migration Policy Institute (MPI).
Doris Meissner, who co-authored the report, said U.S. Customs and Border Protection officials have characterized a border strategy as one of "risk management" and using resources effectively. Illegal crossings have reached historic lows in recent years. Yet Congress appears to be taking the approach of dramatically increasing the budget for enforcement, as well as dictating tactics to the Department of Homeland Security.
The immigration reform bill calls for additional drones and the likely beneficiary is the California-based General Atomics which has a $454 million pending federal contract to build and maintain up to 12 drones.
The influential industry now counts the support of the Congressional Caucus on Unmanned System or Drone Caucus in the Congress with 60 members from both parties. Last year General Atomics spent $2.4 million in lobbying politicians and made $680,682 worth of campaign contributions to members both parties, according to the Center for Responsive Politics which tracks campaign and lobbying money.
"As defense contracts diminish, border security becomes a bigger part of their profit sector," says Tom Barry who tracks drone contracts for the Center for International Policy, a left-leaning think tank. http://newamericamedia.org/2013/06/the-business-of-border-security.php

Despite the bad publicity throughout the 70's, the Dobermann Pinschers have remained a loyal family guardian for well over a hundred years. Dobermanns were originally bred specifically with this very purpose in mind.
Today, purebred Dobermans are amoungst the smartest dogs in the world, their loyalty is unwavering and they truly are family for life.
Over time, the breed has been split down the line, with show breeders looking for visual traits, and working line breeders seeking drive. With the Iron Guard Doberman puppies, you can be assured that we breed for both drive and conformation, as this was what they were made for, strength and confidence, the perfect dog.

Scott Eyre Interview
At the 11th annual Phillies Phantasy Camp, which officially started last night, there are 22 Phillies "legends" participating in the camp. One of the legends is a former Phillie who helped the team win the 2008 World Series Championship…lefty reliever Scott Eyre.
Scott, what are you doing these days?
"I'm coaching my sons' two little league teams and travelling teams while tending to my "farm" in Bradenton featuring 4 dogs, 5 cats and a frog".
What's your role here at Phantasy Camp?
"This is my first Phantasy Camp and am having a blast. Debbie Nocito from the Phillies asked me to be a special guest. I have no idea what that entails but think it means I'm the professional mingler. Last time I was here at Bright House Field, I left the bullpen during a game and found out how to get on top of the roof of the ballpark. It was a great view until the 10 security guards quickly escorted me down. It's great catching up with guys like Larry Andersen, Mitch Williams and Mickey Morandini".
What's the coolest thing that you did last summer?
"I took the family, including four of the dogs, on a cross-country trip in our 40 foot RV while pulling a GMC Acadia. We started in Bradenton and trekked through 20 states, ending in Vancouver Island. Our highlight was driving through Yellowstone Park. My wife was desperate to see a bear. Unfortunately, we saw every other species except for a bear…still was an unbelievable experience. A scary moment occurred when we almost overheated trying to pass someone on a narrow pass near Vegas. Luckily, the RV survived and we were able to continue on the trip.
Do you keep up with the Phillies?
"Of course. I spend a lot of money on the MLB package and watch tons of games. I still root hard for my former teammates".
How's the arm?
"The arm is good. I throw so much BP to my kids that I could be the next Jim Morris. Maybe they could make a movie about me one day"!
What's in the future for Scott Eyre?
"Right now, I am really enjoying retirement and spending time with my family. I've been doing some analyst work with MLB.com. I'm not sure where that's going to lead but having a great time so far".
(John Brazer, Director, Publicity for the Phillies, is in Clearwater at Phantasy Camp. He'll be a daily guest writer for Phillies Insider through Sunday).

I just got off the phone with a friend of mine. His name is AJ and he was particularly grouchy. He had just spent the last 12 work hours scouring month-old machine logs so that he could compile a quarter-end audit that met his company's compliance requirement. AJ is the Director of IT for what would be considered an SMB. It's a modest home warranty related company that deals with homeowner end users, finance and loan offices, mortgage companies and manufacturers. It does roughly 15-20 million in business each year and employs about 60 direct employees and maybe 100 contracted agents. AJ has a staff of 3 other IT professionals, but given the workload, could easily double that headcount.
AJ is very proud of his jack-of-all-IT-trades status. He is proficient at writing code as he is virtually installing access on contractor home devices as he is planning strategic IT footprint expansion. And it's this proficiency that has been making him grumpy. Because he can work some sort of magic with just about any application, the bosses have him wear many different hats. In fact, one of his online IT forum handles is "The Maddest Hatter." But it is this reliance on his tribal knowledge and multidisciplinary acumen that keep the C-Levels saying "that sounds like it's right up AJ's alley." AJ's biggest problem is that there are only 24 hours in a day and he can only prioritize so many projects that are interspersed with hair-on-fire emergencies.
Now when I called AJ, it was not to sell him anything, but to see if he wanted to play a round of golf this weekend. However, the conversation soon turned dark, as he said that he would probably be in the office all weekend catching up on the work he would have been doing if not for the pesky audits. I asked him if that were a regular happenstance, working through the weekend. He said it happened once or twice a month. If it wasn't compliance, it was server repair, or backup tapes, or investigating why the website submission page transmits gobbledigook (his word, not mine).
"So what about your security policies?" I snuck in the question.
"What about them? Raul and Savino (his techs) usually take care of it-the provsioning, password stuff, whatever. I just step in when the feds come knocking and ask about compliance. Man PCI is just burying me." (note…most of his company's users pay for service online using credit card–see last week's blog about PCI)
I sighed. "So you don't know who's accessing your network, if they're friendlies. What they are looking at?"
"I know what you're trying to do…you're trying to sell me SIEM and Log Management. You know I've got it covered."
"Do you? How secure are those home agents computers? Are they monitored by anything more than virus software? Do you know what sites they're visiting, how open their networks are before they sign in an access your network? Heck are they using unsecured smartphones?"
"I know. I know. But I thought this call was about golf."
"Just trying to help a buddy out.
I know from experience that too many SMBs do not enforce data security policies. Like AJ, they are spread too thin or don't have the necessary budget to afford a holistic solution. Without these security controls they run the risk of losing data, stagnate employee (and agent) productivity, and open themselves up to a myriad of breaches, sabotages and carelessness. Any of which could bring their modest enterprise to a screeching halt.
For company's like AJ's, security-as-a-service is making more and more sense. It provides best of breed capabilities for a fraction of the cost. I told AJ that for what he pays currently in support and maintenance, I could provide an enterprise-class holistic solution-one that provides all the tools, plus 24/7 monitoring vigilance. And this is not to displace any person or process currently in house. They might have the expertise, but typically don't have the bandwidth or the budget or the buy-in. Too many company's like AJ's do the bare minimum to maintain compliance, but that certainly leaves them vulnerable. In fact, the all the automated and outsourced functionalities can provide the breathing room to address not only business need and revenue generating priorities, but to allow a transformation from an infrastructure-based organization to a information-based one. AJ knows this and often crosses swords with the C-levels in that they need to upgrade security protocols because it is a matter of when (not if) a major security issue will occur and cost them not only dollars, but reputation as well.
Cloud-based security is not just a benefit for SMBs. The residual benefit of Cloud Security is that IT no longer has to be in the Identity Management business, but still reap all the benefits and efficiencies. No more time dedicated to resetting passwords or setting up role based access every time someone is hired, fired or moved. It doesn't have to be in the log monitoring business, but still is effectively and securely protected from intrusion and attack with 24/7/365 monitoring. IT department is no longer a compiler of data, but a conduit of information and evaluator of compliance audits and reports that meet the various industry standards and government requirements.
The good news is AJ is slotting cloud security migration for his 2013 budget. So I just may let him win the next time we hit the links…but don't tell him that!

The stream squeeze
It may be that I'm just getting to that age where conditions that existed 10 or 20 years ago seem, well, just a little better than they do now. Or it could be that it really is harder to find public access places on Colorado rivers that don't have a couple or three guys standing in them when I arrive.
It's only natural for a state that sprouts hundreds of thousands of new residents each year to experience crowding in the natural resource department. But it seems the pinch keeps getting tighter on streams than anyplace else.
A Saturday visit to the Big Thompson below Estes Park certainly bore this out. Here's a nice little stream at low flow on a bad-weather day featuring trout mostly 10 inches long. A vehicle or two were parked at every plausible public turnout, with others prowling up and down the highway looking for a spot that wasn't occupied.
Such conditions have been exacerbated by 8 years of the administration of former Gov. Bill Owens during which a virtual ban existed on purchase of additional stream property. More recently, a bill sponsored by agricultural interests would have prevented the Colorado Division of Wildlife from acquiring any more property without selling off some of what it already possessed. Mercifully, the measure was defeated — narrowly — in committee.
Bottom line: We keep adding lots of people without balancing the opportunity. Common sense tells us this can't continue without spoiling the things about Colorado we loved in the first place.
