data center economizer
In data center terminology an air economizer is part of the data center cooling infrastructure. An air economizer can reduce data center power consumption by leveraging cooler outdoor air temperatures to cool the hardware and facility.
In a typical scenario, air economizers draw in cool air from outside and expel hot air (generated inside the facility) outdoors, instead of cooling and recirculating the hot air from servers. Water economizers can also be used to remove heat from the chilled water loop by a heat exchange process with outdoor air.
According to The Green Grid (TGG), an international, non-profit consortium working to enhance data center resource efficiency, there are two main economizer technologies commonly used in data centers:

Class of 1972 supports arts, education in Newton
Representatives of the Newton Senior High School graduating class of 1972 recently presented a gift of $700 to the Centre for Arts & Artists.
The class's reunion planning committee chose the CAA for its strong leadership to establish a vibrant culture of supporting the arts in all its forms; to develop local economic opportunities; and to provide and maintain a venue for art education in the community, including a high-level of arts appreciation.
"We are excited by this generous donation, which caught us totally by surprise," said Linda Klepinger, executive director. "We are working to establish an artists' cooperative gift shop at the CAA and this special gift will be enormously helpful in fulfilling our immediate future plans."

Home is a place you grow up wanting to leave, and grow old wanting to get back to. ~John Ed Pearce

Heather, many of my Seavey ancestors lived in Bridgton (Dad's side). We spent many wonderful summer days on Woods Pond as children, and my dad loved to go fishing in that area. I grew up in South Portland, so have been on the Naples causeway many times. Wish I was there right now, but I'm stuck in Ohio until mid-October.

I'm not "hating" or anything stupid but holy fuck has anybody had to check off his account because they keep posting stupid shit?
Everything from bad covers, tattoo's and haircuts, Filled up my god damn list so much I rarely saw anything BUT Tech
I like updates as much as the next person but fuck that
Okay, You're an idiot.

Tech isn't the one doing it dude.
i hate the face that they post the same story 5 or 6 times.
Yeah the "fan pics" are getting annoying. Cause its usually just some girl wearing a strange tshirt or a girl wearing a pendant. Or they post up a blog every half hour it seems like. I dont really care, but I am noticing a lot more random shit being posted by "his" facebook.
Lovely par
Living T said:
Ryan said:Maybe u need more friends
maybe ryan is right and you need more friends because it doesn't blow up my feed like that. But they seem to have a new blog post every couple hours so Tech's fb is usually in my feed too. I don't even go on the page, just spam and retarded tattoos.
It makes sense though, every time Tech farts or coughs they stretch it into some speculative question.
Fuck I lol'ed

We have walks on Saturday mornings and Sunday afternoons in winter (weather permitting). We also offer walks on weeknights and weekends in the Fox River Valley Area during spring, summer and autumn. The walks are usually scheduled within Cook, DuPage, Kane and McHenry County F …
This is a great group for people who want to get outdoors walking and hiking with others. We leisurely walk and hike year round at a Forest Preserve.

Occasionally, we hike 5 to 10 miles. CHILDREN: Children are welcome on hikes. DOGS: Dogs are welcome on hikes, as long as the forest preserve allows them. I will mention on specific …

For those who love to take advantage of the beautiful Chicago lakefront and want to meet new people while doing it, this is the group for you!

other end of the cord, I plugged in a ' 96 Fender US Lone Star Strat.
Many players use phase pedals with a shallow depth and slow sweep to subtly alter the tonal characteristic of their clean guitar tone. Throwing the Strat's pickup selector into the neck position while playing clean rhythm through a mellow phase softened the Strat's tone a touch by rounding off some of the treble frequencies and tightening up the bass. In a full band, it's a perfect recipe for blending in without getting lost in the mix, and Carlos Alomar's tone during the Bowie era—the high guitar parts in "Golden Years," for instance—is a good point of reference for how the Nebula IV can work in this context.
One of the cooler aspects of the Nebula IV is that you can dial in the volume (even overdrive it a tiny bit), as well as adjust the depth setting. The original MXR Phase 90 has almost mythical status because the depth is set so perfectly in the box. But the Nebula IV's ability to nail that sweet spot and cover the additional ground is a welcome—and musically useful—evolution.
Pros: Beautifully built. Super dimensional. Good for subtle-to-radical phase effects.
Mojo Hand FX Nebula IV Phaser, $159 street, mojohandfx.comTonesValue
Ease of Use Build
Cons: Oddly placed power jack.
Cranking up the depth and rate a touch, I was able to nail Jonny Greenwood's phased guitar tone from Radiohead's "Paranoid Android." Pushing the depth even further gets you cool vowel-like tones with a little overdrive, much like the rhythm guitar in Tame Impala's "Solitude Is Bliss"—a great texture for livening up an otherwise dull and pedestrian strumming pattern. The Nebula IV works very well with other pedals too, and driving it at full phase with the Super Fuzz out front conjures a fantastic, deep and menacing swirl without losing detail or definition.
The Verdict
The Nebula IV does a beautiful job of capturing the magic of the original Phase
90 and extending the sonic possibilities of that foundation. Newer, higher precision components and some engineering prowess make the Nebula IV a lot like a higher-fidelity, lower-noise descendent of the original MXR Phase 90. It's more dimensional and spacious, however, and it puts a lot of tone-shaping control at your fingertips.
Complaints are minor: The power jack is less than conveniently located, causing right-angle 1/4" cables to poke up in harm's way. Otherwise, the Nebula IV is a well-built, stylish and versatile phaser that will please even the most hardcore swirl fiends—and perhaps bring some new ones into the fold.

Pro-N. Korean lawmaker is neither just nor right
The trouble-making abilities of Rep. Lee Seok-ki, the controversial, progressive lawmaker, appear to have no end. The left-leaning politician's latest provocation occurred Friday when he denied the existence of the national anthem. ``What we Koreans know as the national anthem is but one of many patriotic songs," he said during a lunch with journalists. In strict legal terms, Lee may not be wrong, as the current national anthem was not stipulated by law but by a presidential decree. In other words, it is the product of a common law, which, however, means he was dead wrong in terms of the popular sentiments reflected on the song. What he tried to take issue with might not just be the legitimacy of the national anthem but that of South Korea itself. Lee's Unified Progressive Party (UPP) has made it a rule to sing a protest song instead of the national anthem during various ceremonies, saying obligating the people to sing the national anthem is a totalitarian idea and practice. This also is half right at best. There are of course countries that do not obligate or even teach a national anthem, including Spain, Italy and Sweden. Yet Rep. Lee must know his remarks can seriously hurt people who love and have contributed to this country. What's important about national flags and anthems are not their legitimacy but the understanding of the nation's historical experiences and the values people share through them. A progressive, or popular, party must embrace such an understanding, not reject it. Equally hard to know is why he made such a comment at this moment when he and his party are under fire for pro-North Korean thoughts and remarks. It might be that Lee just wanted to justify the UPP's avoidance of the national anthem, as he said. Yet, we suspect that a more complex calculation lies behind it. By adding fuel to the current ideological debate, he could have attempted to take popular attention away from the progressive party's in-house vote rigging and prosecutors' investigations into his company's dubious business practices, and even take the upper hand in the ongoing power struggle within the UPP between sympathizers of North Korea and labor activists. If the latter case is true, Lee has reaffirmed the popular suspicion that not only people on the right-wing of the political spectrum, but also those on the left are exploiting ideology for political purposes. True, there were totalitarian elements during the dictatorial days in South Korea, and nationalism is still strong here. But the single-minded followers of North Korea should be the last ones to criticize that, as long as they remain silent about one of the world's most ― if not the most ― totalitarian states in the northern half of this divided peninsula. Hatred of what they see as the world's most imperialistic superpower cannot justify everything. Whoever said sound conservatives make sound progressives are right. These days, however, the opposite appears to be no less urgent. |

AHA Objects to New Patient Experience Surveys
The American Hospital Association has a message for the federal government on the topic of patient experience surveys: Enough already!
In a letter this week to Marilyn Tavenner, acting administrator for the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, AHA suggested that plans to add a new survey about patient experiences in hospital outpatient surgical departments and ambulatory surgical centers would be a lesson in overkill that would confuse patients and prove burdensome and expensive for hospital administrators.
Ashley Thompson, AHA's vice president and deputy director of policy, wrote in the letter to Tavenner that AHA has long supported and recognized the value of Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems surveys "as tools to help hospitals improve the engagement and satisfaction of patients and families."
"However, the AHA urges CMS to reconsider the necessity of a new, separate survey tool for ASCs and HOSDs," Thompson said in the letter.
"We are concerned that the CAHPS program already includes multiple overlapping survey tools creating confusion about how to assess the patient experience across multiple care settings, as well as excessive survey administration burden. Instead of a separate survey, CMS should incorporate a small number of supplemental survey questions targeted at facility-level issues for ASCs into an existing CAHPS survey."

After dropping serve in a long fourth game that went to deuce 10 times, Azarenka recovered to dominate the rest of the match against Kuznetsova, a two-time major winner who was floating dangerously in the draw with a No. 75 ranking as she recovers from a knee injury.
Azarenka's American rapper friend returned from a concert in Malaysia to attend the quarterfinal match.
Wearing a red sleeveless T-shirt that read "Keep Calm and Bring Out the Bottles," the name of his next single, Redfoo stood, clapped and yelled "Come on, Vika!" during the tight first set.
Williams' loss was a boost for Azarenka, who lost all five head-to-heads against the American in 2012 and is 1-11 in their career meetings.
Tsonga said he was in a "bad mood" because he lost despite playing a good match against Federer.
"I was solid. I was there every time," he said. "I just gave my best today, so I'm proud of that."
The 25-year-old Murray had his service broken for only the second time while serving for the match. But he broke back immediately to clinch a quarterfinal victory.
Murray discounted comments in the British media that he was upset with an almost full schedule of day matches while Federer was given cooler night slots on Rod Laver Arena.
"The scheduling for me is part and parcel of playing in really any tennis tournament," Murray said. "It's tough to make the schedule perfect for every single player."

Washington, DC is the land of monuments, a city of symbols, and a place of power. The country's capital is home to the President of the United States, the Senate, the House of Representatives and hundreds of memorials paying homage to the country's vibrant, and often turbulent, past. It's no wonder millions of travellers book Washington, DC flights every year. From inspiring speeches to larger-than-life replicas of past presidents and colourful neighbourhoods waiting to be explored, it's hard not be inspired on a trip to Washington, DC.
There's more than politics to this city, however. Entertainment gurus will awe at the sight of Dorothy's ruby slippers and Fonzie's leather jacket at the Smithsonian American History Museum. Pick up some moon rocks at the Natural Air and Space Museum, or take a walk through the Hall of the First Lady's and admire the inaugural gowns of Lady Bird Johnson, Jackie Kennedy and more. The National Mall – a green park stretching from the US Capitol to the Lincoln Memorial – is a common ground for protests and demonstrations. Find a cheap flight to Washington and spend your money in DuPont Circle's shopping district or Capitol Hill's exquisite restaurants. Walk through Georgetown or head down to the Potomac River for a picnic in the park. Whether you fly to Washington, DC, for political or personal reasons, you'll find yourself fascinated with our nation's powerful capital.

A Camp for All Ages
Three generations coexist under one roof in this central Maine lakehouse.
By Meadow Rue Merrill Photograph by Brian Vanden Brink
On a lake in central Maine lies a summer camp so subtle, so subdued, the loam-dark clapboards and leaf-green roof blend into shadow, making the back porch beams hard to distinguish against the diamond-bright water.
The tree-lined shore is virtually undisturbed — the nearest amenities being a boathouse and a roadside garden stand advertising, "Pies! Pies! Pies!" As if there could be any doubt, a large wooden sign by the cottage door confirms, "Maine, the way life should be." No wonder the owners often stay well into the fall.
Although only six years old, the house looks as if it might have been here the day the head of this Maine family rambled through the woods and fell in love with the sandy beach, buying the property in 1948. His children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren have been frolicking on the lake ever since. Their pictures line the antique bureaus in the upstairs bedrooms and hang from the Douglas fir-paneled walls.
The Shingle-style cottage, designed by Portland architect Stephen Blatt, is one of several — all painted the same deep brown, all belonging to the same family — rising from the pine-rimmed pasture. Every aspect reflects the owners' interests — reading, boating, swimming, gardening, and cooking for the camp's many guests.
"It's not unusual to have between twelve and twenty people for dinner on any given day," says one of the owners, a dignified but youthful looking grandmother whose lake-blue toenails look as if they might have been painted by a granddaughter. "Nieces and nephews wander between their aunt's and uncle's tables, and they are free to stay as long as they clear their plates and say, 'Please' and, 'Thank you.' "
With three generations intending to summer under one roof, the cottage had to serve multiple needs. The setting — just a fishing-pole cast away from the lake — required that it also be compact. So, before drawing a single line, the architect sat down with six members of the family, who asked to remain anonymous for this architectural profile. One season of talking and nine months of planning later, Blatt revealed his design.
"I tried to make it feel small," Blatt says. "That's why there are two gables on either side separated by a porch and large roofs coming down. I really feel houses on lakes should huddle close to the trees and not be seen from the water, if at all possible."
To further reduce the profile, the second floor of the 4,500-square-foot house hunkers close to the first. Blatt described it like the branches of a tree looming over the trunk below. "It is meant to look ornithological," he says, "like a [bird's] body. The windows are the eyes."
The naturally curving granite piazza and surrounding gardens, which were designed by Portland landscape architect Pat Carroll, further obscure the lines between the house and its surroundings.
"The outdoor spaces are as important as the indoor spaces," Blatt says, noting that the outdoor kitchen — a large stainless steel grill built into a granite counter — was placed at an angle so the owners could grill while watching their grandchildren swim.
The four-season house is equally inviting. The first floor flows around a central family room with a large dining room table, comfortable couches filled with pillows, and an alcove of windows facing the lake. Across the room, a massive granite fireplace rises through the wood-paneled ceiling, which contains a hidden vault with a forty-two-inch screen TV — the largest that would fit — that lowers with the push of a button.
At one end of the room, a pass-through window opens to the kitchen. "We really do enjoy cooking." The owner steps through a door into the glorified galley of a kitchen. "We wanted a lot of hands to be able to help without taking a lot of space and having people stepping on each other." Two sinks, four drawer-style dishwashers, two refrigerators, and a whopping thirty-nine foot granite counter, provide plenty of room.
On the opposite side of the living space, a pair of sliding glass french doors reveals an almost hidden office. A few steps away, a white, bead-board paneled screen porch allows the owner to read to her grandchildren each afternoon and evening while enjoying a lakeside breeze.
"We have two driers because of the number of beach towels we wash every day," the owner explains, before leading the way down the hall and up the stairs.
While the house is largely free of ornamentation, the antique oar fastened above the stairs was a gift from the builder, Peter Warren of the Warren Construction Group, in Freeport, who often works with Blatt. Large, oil-painted canvases showcase the work of three of Maine's finest contemporary artists: Alex Katz, Fairfield Porter, and Will Barnet.
The second floor is divided into two identical wings divided by a playroom. Each side contains two bedrooms, a smaller room designed for a crib, a screened sleeping porch, and a generous bathroom. Besides the antique décor, the only difference between the wings is the color of the bathrooms — one blue with "water" monogrammed on its white towels, the other green with the monogram "grass."
The wood-paneled bedrooms contain built-in bench seats overlooking the lake as well as coved ceilings to make the space "a little quirky and cozy," says the owner. Closet space is minimum. Pulling back a white curtain under the eaves in the grandsons' room revealed two hanging dress shirts and several pairs of shoes. "They are here for the summer," the owner says. "What else do they need?"
A ripped sheet of newspaper taped to a granddaughter's door reads, "Please knock before you come in."
"This really speaks to the family," the owner says. "Everyone has their space."
Nowhere is this more apparent than the playroom — the largest room upstairs, with a small porch overlooking the lake. Games and craft supplies fill the shelves. A pile of beanbags softens a corner. And hand-painted plaques announce a decade of family awards honoring such merits as, "Best Pal to the Little Guys" and "Best Sleepover Guy."
"With nine grandchildren plus nine great nieces and nephews, this place saves us on rainy days." The owner laughs.
Throughout the home, pumpkin pine floors add warmth to the dark Douglas fir ceilings and walls. They also help create the illusion that this is a camp, rather than a fine, luxury home. But add up the details, and it becomes clear just what a carefully crafted fantasy this is. Blatt, who is well recognized for designing schools and other institutions, calls residential projects like this, "the dessert of our work."
The owner and her family selected the architect after admiring his process while serving on a board together. "Steve was instrumental in helping us envision this from day one," she says, stepping through the french doors to the terrace to watch a gaggle of grandchildren paddle about in kayaks. "At every turn, he and his office were the most intuitive listeners. He's made the life we dreamed of a possibility."
It isn't hard to see why. A yellow Lab, dripping from a dip in the lake, ambles around the corner of the house near a pair of bicycles. In the shade nearby, an empty hammock swings between two maples. The only sound is the lapping of the lake and the distant roll of a lawnmower as a barefoot girl saunters across the grass.

text: Chiara Cillerai, Ph.D. Assistant Professor of Writing, Institute for Core Studies First-Year Writing Program, Institute for Writing email@example.com B.A. and M.A., The University of Florence, Italy, 1992 Ph.D., Rutgers University, 2007 Chiara Cillerai is an assistant professor in the Institute for Writing Studies at St. John's University, NY. Her most recent work is a collection of short essays on the pedagogical challenges of introducing students to Toni Morrison's historical fiction A Mercy. She contributed an essay to the collection entitled "'One Question is who is responsible? Another is can you read?' Reading and responding to seventeenth-century texts using Toni Morrison's historical reconstructions in A Mercy," (Early American Literature, 48.1. Forthcoming Spring 2013.) In this essay, Dr. Cillerai explores the challenges and the success of introducing first year writing students to historical fiction as a means to write about and re-write historical interpretations. Her recently completed book manuscript, The Voices of Cosmopolitanism in Early American Culture, considers how a number of American writers of the late colonial period employed the universalizing language of cosmopolitanism to engage in discussions of nationhood. From this perspective, she investigates the problematic intersections between elite and non-elite discourses, between the voices of those who had access to power and publication and those who had none, between print and manuscript forms, and between literary genres that emerge within the works of a diverse group of writers that include Benjamin Franklin, Elizabeth Graeme Fergusson, Olaudah Equiano, and the Italian immigrant, Philip Mazzei.
