How do APIs and IoT relate? The answer is not as simple as merely adding an API on top of a dumb device, but rather about understanding the architectural patterns for implementing an IoT fabric. There are typically two or three trends: Exposing the device to a management framework Exposing that management framework to a business centric logic Exposing that business layer and data to end users. This last trend is the IoT stack, which involves a new shift in the separation of what stuff happens, where data lives and where the interface lies.

Jul 11, 2013This one is way, way, way better [than her last album], not least thanks to a quaint little ditty called "Body Party."
Jul 15, 2013[Ciara sounds] blissfully triumphant and uncomplicated on a record from start to finish.
Jul 24, 2013Ciara is the singer's most realized full-length to date and one of this year's most thrilling pop moments.
Jul 11, 2013Ciara feels slightly (though only slightly) weaker when she swims against the current of her own charm and tries for "raw."
Jul 17, 2013This is a pretty good album for fans of dance-pop or contemporary R&B.
Jul 16, 2013Other than ["Where You Go"], Ciara is a crisp, clean album that doesn't waste much motion.
Jul 8, 2013Since her 2004 smash, "Goodies," Ciara has had trouble finding the right commercial song and it appears she's still searching.

Aug 8, 2013Ciara makes a great comeback on this new album, successfully incorporating elements of Pop, R&B, and Dance without making it sounds too scattered. Her vocals work best on more sexy records ("Body Party" "DUI" and "Read My Lips" for example) but the production carries her on clunker records like "Super Turnt Up." Aside from "Where You Go" every song has great replay value, a necessity given how short the album's actual playtime is.… Expand
Jul 10, 2013One of the best albums of 2013: Ciara's "Ciara" give a great combination of pop, R&B and dance. Princess Harris gave us a doubtful promotion at the beginning but more and more Ciara improved herself in that path. She returned to stay, and is ready to compete with the big names of R&B: Beyoncé and Rihanna. Best tracks include the punching "I'm Out," the sexy "Body Party" and the futuristic "Overdose." Congratulations to Ciara.… Expand
Jul 9, 2013Great and powerful R&B album, which marks a great moment on Ciara's career! Body Party was a great choice of single. Sorry and Got Me Good should have been included on it.… Expand

With eight games left, it is a pitching staff that features startling uncertainty.
Yes, the Red Sox salvaged a double header split against the lowly Orioles on Monday. But while they won one (and perhaps could have swept but for what the Sox suggested vehemently to be a blown call in the first game) the most striking common denominator of the two games was the fact that there are questions about the fitness of several Sox pitchers for their roles.
That sentiment was most pronounced in the first game, when rookie Kyle Weiland got off to a brilliant start (four strikeouts through two shutout innings) before fading quickly. He allowed six runs in 4 2/3 innings of work, and in all but one of his five big league starts, he's failed to complete even five innings.
"I believe in myself. Obviously they trust me to go out there and give them a chance to win," said Weiland. "It's really frustrating that I haven't kept it within range and gotten us deeper into games and given us a better chance.
"It's really frustrating because you know it's there. You know you have the capability to work deep in games, you have the pitches to start," added Weiland. "It's just piecing it all together and trusting it. Obviously I trust it early in games and get on a roll, but you have to stay aggressive. I've got to stay aggressively, basically, throughout the game. It can't just be a one, two-inning thing."
Of course, the fact that Weiland has been so effective in his first time through a batting order in three of his four September appearances comes with an obvious curiosity. Particularly given that he is at a point where he's pitched 23 2/3 innings more than he did in 2010, it is natural to wonder – as some are in the Sox organization – whether he might be more helpful down the stretch in the bullpen.
That is not necessarily to suggest that his long-term future would be as a reliever (though it could be). But right now, Weiland (0-3, 7.99 ERA, 11 strikeouts and 12 walks in 23 2/3 innings) has been performing like a multi-innings reliever who is slightly miscast and who is thus getting burned his second time through an order.
At the same time, the opposite question was being asked about one of the pitchers who worked in relief of Weiland. Alfredo Aceves turned in three shutout innings, at one point working out of a second-and-third, no-out jam without permitting a run. It was his 12th relief appearance of three or more innings, and his seventh of that duration in which he hadn't allowed a run.
Aceves (9-2, 2.74 ERA) has shown the ability to turn over a lineup while still recording outs. His pitch mix is such that the right-hander appears like he might have considerable value as a member of the rotation, something that was not lost on his teammates.
"To be honest with you, the way things are going, [Aceves] should be starting. Simple as that. Give it a shot," Ortiz said to a small group of reporters. "He's got good stuff, man. You see how easy he gets hitters out. I think at one point, he might be a starter. I don't know. It all depends on what our front office decides. He's got good stuff, man. And we definitely need a guy who can come in and give us six or seven good innings. It seems like he's capable of doing it. We'll see."
Ortiz was asked whether there is enough time left in the season to have Aceves change roles.
"We still have like what 10 games? Nine games? You never know. It's not going to be tomorrow. He threw (53) today. But he's got electric stuff," said Ortiz. "And we've been saying that for a while, right?"
Yet the Sox are leery of removing their most versatile reliever from a role in which he's been brilliant and in which he is making a huge impact on his team. Aceves is 8-1 with a 2.14 relief ERA, and his 84 bullpen innings (accumulated despite the fact that he spent part of the year in Triple-A and part of the year in the rotation) are the second most of any AL pitcher.
If the Sox were certain that they could move Aceves to the rotation and have a viable replacement in the bullpen – a group that has also struggled – then it would be tempting to give Aceves (who was 1-1 with a 5.14 ERA in four starts) another crack at the rotation.
But as it stands, with the Sox struggling to get five innings out of their starters (a fairly low bar that the Sox have nevertheless exceeded just six times in 19 games this month), Aceves' value in his current role is immense. He is the most reliable setup man the team has in front of Daniel Bard and Jonathan Papelbon. He is also a pitcher who can serve, in some ways, as a piggyback starter to keep the Sox in the game if a Sox starter gets knocked out early.
In other words, Aceves has significant potential value in multiple roles on any day on which he can pitch. The Sox remain reluctant to thus experiment with removing him from the bullpen, a move that in a best-case scenario would be robbing Peter to pay Paul, and in a worst-case scenario could leave the Sox without one of their most critical relievers so that he could continue to be just so-so as a starter.
The questions began with Aceves and Weiland, but they certainly didn't end there. Indeed, the man who started the second game of the doubleheader seemed to have nothing but questions for himself after his outing. On a night when the Sox scored 18 runs in the nightcap, John Lackey still couldn't claim the win. He was knocked out after 4 1/3 innings, a brief outing that nonetheless required him to throw 105 pitches during which he allowed eight runs.
Lackey could not explain his night, suggesting that his stuff felt great in the bullpen but did not translate at all to the game.
"I can't explain it, man. That's the best I've felt in the bullpen warming up all year. I don't know what the hell happened," said Lackey. "I'm glad we won, for sure. Obviously. But I'm pretty frustrated. I don't know what to tell you."
Such statements are hardly confidence-inducing for the Sox from the man who would be a Game 3 or Game 4 starter should the team hold on to its wild card lead (now two games) to make the playoffs. Nor is Lackey's 6.49 ERA – a mark that is steaming towards the title of worst in franchise history, and the worst by any pitcher (min. 150 innings) in the majors in six years – the sort of mark that can leave the Sox with anything but a sense of uneasiness when he takes the mound.
That, in turn, makes Erik Bedard's return on Tuesday all the more significant. Yet the left-hander will himself remain a question mark going forward, given that he will have to rebuild arm strength after missing the past two weeks with a sore knee and then a mild lat strain. The Sox acknowledge that Bedard is unlikely to be able to throw as many as 100 pitches on Tuesday.
Similarly, as Clay Buchholz works his way back to games, his potential contributions remain impossible to predict. If he is healthy enough to pitch, then the Sox will be putting him into a relief role in which he has no real prior experience, at a time when it is almost impossible to know – after not having pitched in games in more than three months – how sharp his stuff will be.
And finally, the Sox are left to wonder whether any number of their struggling pitchers can correct course and become reliable. Daniel Bard rebounded on Friday from losses in three straight games to deliver a scoreless inning. Matt Albers, who struck out both Orioles he faced on Monday, has shown some glimpses in his last two outings of being able to regain his footing after slipping on a banana peel at the start of August.
But Dan Wheeler has now been sidelined for almost two weeks while dealing with forearm stiffness that had rendered him ineffective in the month of September. And other Sox relievers, including Franklin Morales, Felix Doubront, Michael Bowden and a host of others for whom September represents an open casting call for potential spots on the playoff roster, have yet to demonstrate the consistency needed to claim a fixed role.
All of that has contributed to a Sox staff that will feature more question marks than certainties going forward. The situation feels reminiscent of the 2005 Sox, a team that barely wheezed into the playoffs after nearly seeing a comfortable spot in the postseason chase evaporate in September. That club, too, featured questions of effectiveness and health through the season's final days, leading to a day-to-day sense of unpredictability.
Of course, that club reached the playoffs but was promptly swept out of them by a White Sox club with superior pitching. Whether this Sox team follows a similar trajectory remains to be seen, but clearly, this is a team that faces a startling number of questions at a time when the pitching staff should have long since taken shape.

Fayetteville State University administrators are reportedly furious over North Carolina rapper J. Cole's "Who Dat" music video because it features the school's cheerleaders and uses profanity.
According to reports, administrators are trying to pull the video from media outlets.
Schools Superintendent Frank Till Jr. issued a statement Tuesday demanding the new J. Cole video "Who Dat" be pulled immediately from the Internet and TV. FSU Chancellor James Anderson apologized in a letter to alumni for Bronco cheerleaders who appear in the video. It was filmed this spring in Fayetteville, where J. Cole grew up. (Fay Observer)
They also deny having knowledge of the video containing explicit language.
"I think it shows the school and the city in a negative light," Till said. "I think it was a legitimate mistake on the school's part…We don't allow that kind of language in our school…Why would we allow our students to do something like this?" Till said the video was shot after school hours and that each student turned in a release form signed by a parent. School officials at the scene of the video shoot said they didn't hear profane lyrics. (Fay Observer)
The video began to circulate online last week.
Roc-Nation's number 1 artist J. Cole just released the video for his first single "Who Dat" off of his still untitled project under Roc-Nation . Roc-Nation is Jay-Z's music label which is still in its initial stages, J. Cole is one of the best in the roster yet and Who Dat is one of the illest songs i've heard in a long time. The video was shot by BBGUN and is a one-take video, pretty dope. Surprising how difficult it is to make one-take videos, J's doing all sorts of different things, surrounded by continuous explosions behind him and people rooting "Who Dat" in the back. (The Media Kings)
Following its release, Cole talked with SOHH about shooting the clip in North Carolina.
"I think it was an excellent reception," Cole told SOHH. "I just wish I would've explained to people more that it was a one shot, that we shot on film and even when you watch it in HD version it looks incredible because it was on 35mm film which is what they use to shoot movies with. Even with that said I think people respect the fact that I went home [to Fayetteville, NC]. I didn't come out with a whole bunch of jewelry, a whole bunch of light skinned girls with short shorts on. It's a real organic feeling video. I really wish I would've explained more to people but you know in time people will get it. They'll see all the imagery and all the little signs." (SOHH)

Torsten Reil gave a TED Talk in 2003 called Simulating Humans, describing his research on animating human characters in 3D.

As a result, human characters in games have looked pretty unrealistic, and movie animation has taken a long time to... READ ON

Car dealer's security cameras catch pedestrian showered by passing plow's wall of snow
BROOKLYN, NY -- Imagine walking down the sidewalk at 5 a.m. It's already tough because it's cold outside and you're trudging along through the snow. Your morning commute couldn't get much worse, right?
Unless you're in the path of a passing snow plow, like this "poor man," who was bowled over by a wall of icy road sludge.
It was caught on camera by a Brooklyn car dealership and discovered when they found snow inside their showroom and checked the video to investigate.

Meridian, Miss. It's been a year of success according to many of the city council members, following the closing of the last meeting of the year. As a new council year dawns July 1, so does a change in officer positions. Outgoing president George Thomas is being replaced by Dustin Markham, who held the vice-president position. Randy Hammon is the new vice-president. Under the new leadership, the council's plan is to keep looking ahead.
"I hope we keep moving forward," said Councilman Ward 2 Dustin Markham. "I hope we make sure that everybody has a hand in decisions we make. All citizens can still feel comfortable with coming to the council and communicating their concerns and being confident that we are going to make decisions that are best for the City of Meridian. That's why they put us here and that's what we should do at all times."
Hammon says despite the new faces that this past year saw, the 2013-14 council year has been a successful one.
"Considering that three of us were new and the mayor was new, I say that we've had a banner year," said Councilman Ward 5 Randy Hammon. "We've really made headway, most of all into finding out where the problems were. Not only in the finances, but in the infrastructure."
Among many of the things the city council hopes to improve upon in the next year is continued work on Velma Young Park.
"From where we've come last year to where we are this year, I think the City of Meridian has done an outstanding job in reviving that park," said Markham. "That's one of the things I promised when I got in office and I just want to keep pushing it."
The newly elected officers will assume their responsibilities at the start of the next council year which starts in less than 2 weeks on July 1st. City Attorney Michael Goggans also attended his last meeting before turning over his position to Bill Hammack.

This week I stepped into the rather strange world of Shadows of the Damned. The game is a collaboration between Suda 51 who made killer7 and Shinji Mikami of Resident Evil 4 fame. The game clearly has all the weirdness that you might expect from such a collaboration, but is the gameplay solid enough on it's own? Why not check out the video to find out.

Sarasota Opera announces 2013/2014 Season
Date: May 7, 2013
by: Mallory Gnaegy | A&E Editor
It's the 55th season of Sarasota Opera, as well as the birthdays of composers Wagner, Britten and Verdi.
"This will be a season of celebration," Richard Russell, executive director, says in a prepared statement.
The season opens November 1, with Johann Strauss, Jr.'s "Die Fledermaus," which was last performed by Sarasota Opera in 2006. Baritone Sean Anderson will sing the role of Einstein and Danielle Walker will sing Rosalinda. Stephanie Sundine will direct and Maestro DeRenzi will conduct.
Benjamin Britten's opera "The Little Sweep" will be performed by Sarasota Youth Opera November 9 and 10.
The exciting 2014 Winter Festival kicks off February 8, with Verdi's "Il Travatore," which hasn't been performed in Sarasota since 1993. Two singers will make their Sarasota Opera debut in this performance: Baritone David Pershall and Mezzo-soprano Margaret Mezzacappa. Stephanie Sound will direct and Maestro DeRenzi will conduct.
On February 15, comedic opera by Giachino Rossini, "The Barber of Seville," will open. Rigoletto in "Rigoletto" last season, aka Marco Nisticó will return for the title role of Figaro. Young Bok Kim will also return and reprise the role of Basilio. William Gustafson will return to Sarasota Opera to direct the opera.
March 1 brings Wagner's "The Flying Dutchman," which hasn't been performed at Sarasota Opera since 2000. Tenor Michael Hendrick and tenor Jon Jurgens (aka Lennie and Curley from last season's "Of Mice and Men") will return under the conducting of Maestro David Neely.
The last opera of the season opens March 8, the debut of Verdi's "Jérusalem." It's a tale of warriors, family rivalry, jealousy and forgiveness. Bass Kevin Short, soprano Danielle Walker, bass Jeffrey Beruan and baritone Matthew Hanscom will return to Sarasota Opera to sing roles in this production. Martha Collins will direct and Mestro DeRenzi will conduct. The winter festival closes March 23.
Three concerts in addition to the full-length operas will take place Nov. 12, March 5 and March 18.

I recently acquired a used micromatic premium nitrogen regulator and the title says what my problem is. With no cylinder attached and no pressure, the low pressure (beer gas line) gauge reads 5 psi. I removed the plastic cover and pushed the needle down to zero, and it promptly returns to 5psi. Is there a way to calibrate or adjust these things? I read the manual, no mention of this problem. I would rather not have to buy a new gauge, but I will if I have to. Just wanted to see if anyone could assist. Thanks in advance!
One of my gauges has a small hole on the back with an Allen socket. It allows adjusting the zero on the dial. The rest have no provision for adjustment.
Remember one unassailable statistic, as explained by the late, great George Carlin: "Just think of how stupid the average person is, and then realize half of them are even stupider!"
"I would like to die on Mars, just not on impact." Elon Musk
If you don't have an adjustment, check out lowes/home depot. I haven't tried yet, but saw they do have cheap gauges in their tool/air compressor section...
Good luck!
Rather than moving the dial, perhaps you can rotate the face instead.
Thanks for all the suggestions. I called micromatic today and was told these gauges have no adjustments. I will look at Lowe's and see what they have. In the meantime, I just have to remember to subtract 5 psi on my nitro tap.
Raising this thread from the dead because I have a very similar problem, though mine is stuck near 10. Before I even saw this thread, I did the same thing as the OP and removed the cover. If I push the needle down it just springs back to its original position.
Is it safe to assume that if I set it so that it reads 20, that I'm actually at 10 PSI?
I will have to double check for a method of calibrating.
I intend to fix it, but I have better things to spend money on right this moment. In the meantime, I'd like to avoid overcarbing a beer!
No one answered, but I just replaced the gauge and I'm guessing that the old gauge WAS accurate, if I compensated for the offset. However, that's no way to go through life.
In addition, as I was adjusting the pressure with the old gauge it wasn't really moving the needle right away. The new gauge moves as I would expect.
It looks like replacing the gauge is clearly the fix for this problem. It was easy and I got a 0 to 30 psi, so I can more accurately dial in my pressure.

Eric Barton, 35
Chairman, Relyant
Eric Barton likes to talk and move fast.
"I love to be doing 40 things at once," he says.
One of the reasons he stepped aside in November as president and CEO of Relyant is so he has more time to dedicate to other ventures, including a $6 million horse farm he operates in Lenoir City with his family, as well as an overseas training and manpower organization.
"I've got Relyant healthy and now I need to get these other companies built up," he says.
As chairman of Relyant, a company that provides construction, spray foam insulation, life support, vehicle maintenance and a variety of other services to government and commercial clients in the Middle East and elsewhere, Barton will facilitate the board of directors' long-range strategic planning.
"This is a way for me to not have to report every day to an office and be free to go wherever I'm needed most," he says. "Our goal now is to diversify and work with other large businesses."
He credits the leadership skills he developed while in the U.S. Marine Corps with helping him make Relyant a success.
In 2002, Barton traveled to Africa as a senior analyst for the Combined Joint Task Force, Horn of Africa National Intelligence Cell.
"I was able to go into that part of the world and learn about it because it was my job, but I also learned about the people and the opportunities there for business and about a different way of life," he says.
The experience, he says, changed his perspective and solidified his faith.
He learned of Americans for African Adoptions Inc. and later adopted two sons from Ethiopia through the organization, which he supports today as a board member.
He has returned several times, scouting out business opportunities and helping to remove more than 100 children and women from dangerous working conditions in a rock quarry last fall.
Barton, who holds four advanced degrees and several professional certifications, felt called to be a chaplain after his military tour. He moved his family to Atlanta to pursue a master's of divinity from Columbia Seminary.
But with mounting bills to pay, he signed with a recruiting agency and went to Iraq in 2005. By 2007, he had teamed with colleagues to form Relyant and the company landed a $17 million vehicle maintenance contract. Contracts for relocatable buildings, spray foam insulation and demining services soon followed.
"Now it's my turn to step away and start looking at it from a corporate health perspective," Barton says of his new role. "The real test is long-term sustainability."

After a Saskatchewan woman gave birth prematurely to her daughter while on vacation and was walloped with a $950,000 hospital bill, insurance providers as well as lawyers are stressing the need for people to better understand the fine print in their policies.

People don't usually celebrate babies turning two months old; it's a milestone that goes by unnoticed for many.
There are a little over 1,300 midwives attending less than 10 per cent of births in Canada. This stands in stark contrast with the Netherlands, where upwards of 80 per cent of women are cared for by a midwife, and Great Britain, where midwives attend all births.
Midwives are becoming increasingly popular in Saskatchewan, with a waiting list of expecting mothers hoping for their services.
In begrudgingly announcing that Canada will heed a court order to reinstate health coverage for all refugee claimants within the country, Immigration Minister Chris Alexander said the Conservative government will continue with an appeal because its parsimony reflects Canadians' view on the matter.

It doesn't really smell like pomegranates, however, I do like the smell. The best thing about this balm is the texture. It goes on smooth. It also seems to add a little color to my lips, which is nice. I haven't found this to be 'replenishing'. I will probably buy this again.
Unfortunately It Stops Working After Awhile,
Leaves Colour On Lips Too.
I was walking through the local CVS one evening and realized I "needed" a new lipbalm, and waltzed over to Burt's Bees. I do not like their original formula because of the mint smell, so I chose the Pomegranate Oil formula. I am so glad I did. It moisturizes very well and makes my lips appear plumper. The packaging is convenient and cute with the cheery, red cap. I love the smell, though at times it can be a bit strong. It's not terrible, but smells a bit like a cocktail. I will definitely be repurchasing, I love it that much.
I bought this stuff today when I got to work because I left my trusty lip balm at home. This was the only cruelty free lip balm they had, so I didn't have much of a choice. I read the ingredients and didn't see any menthol, so I thought it might be okay. Boy, was I wrong!!! The smell is horrible. It smells like cherry menthol cough drops... which makes me ill. The consistancy is okay, not too waxy. I just can't get over them smell.
More reviews by boopboopbedoop
This isn't bad, but it's not very moisturizing for me. I do love the scent, though.
Strange scent. Not fruity as I expected. Instead it's very herbal and spicy--not baked goods spicy, but rosemary/sage spicy.
I liked this product a lot; it was a great lip balm BUT when I started to use it, I noticed lots of tiny little bumps around the edges of my lips. When I stopped using it, the bumps started to go away. So I guess I had some kind of allergic reaction to it :( As far as other things go, the smell is really a perfume-y kind of smell in my opinion. When it gets in your mouth, the taste is really nasty, though. I won't be buying it again for myself, but I would definetly recommend for YOU to get it!
I'm pretty picky about lip balms - usually too waxy or doesn't stay on or terrible colour but I have four of these around me at any given time - one for make up bag, one for my work bag, etc. I love the perfect natural-but-better rosy lips it gives me. And I find the smell very nice - not "fake-cranberry" at all, at least not for me.
My only issue is that if I have really chapped lips, this isn't strong enough (I will then use my Aveeno lip treatment instead). It's a really nice everyday lip balm.
The scent of this balm is just not good, it reminds me of a fake cranberry scent. Any color payoff is soooo slight as to not be significant. I don't see the reason for the rave reviews, it's an ok balm but there are plenty of ok and better balms out there, for the same if not less money.
Possibly my new HG lip balm! With just a hint of color, this provides lasting moisture and protection. It also contains pomegrante oil, a popular and effective antioxidant. Like all Burt's products, it's not tested on animals.

see. We GOT every piece of trash our eyes could see! :)

window, so only rode about 15 miles. I then came home and started to winterize
my pond, before I crashed out of sheer exhaustion.!
It WAS a GREAT day! :)
