Atlanta is expected to release starting running back Michael Turner. Joe Fortenbaugh
For the first time in his nine-year NFL career, running back Steven Jackson will have the opportunity to test the free agent market.
Per a report from Jim Thomas of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, Jackson will void the final year of a contract that is scheduled to pay him $7 million in 2013—an amount that would likely force the Rams into releasing one of the franchise's most popular players, had Jackson opted not to void the deal.
After 131 career regular season games with St. Louis, it looks like Steven Jackson is moving on.
In addition to the report, Thomas goes on to name the Atlanta Falcons as one of Jackson's potential suitors once the market opens up on March 13. Recent reports have stated that the Falcons plan to release 31-year-old Michael Turner in the near future, which opens up the door for a new addition to the depth chart in Atlanta.
A team like the Falcons—who has been knocking on the door for the past few years—makes a lot of sense as Jackson's next destination, as it's unlikely a young football team in rebuilding mode would be interested in signing a 29-year-old running back with 2,395 career carries under his belt. But it's also likely that Jackson—who has amassed 1,350+ total yards in each of the last five seasons—is going to draw interest from more than one football team.
The Tennessee Titans could get involved after stating publicly that the team is interested in getting running back Chris Johnson some help. And after head coach Mike Munchak survived the chopping block this past January, the coaching staff is likely looking to make a quick turnaround any way they can.
In addition, the San Diego Chargers have stated that the team is interested in acquiring another running back to help injury-prone Ryan Mathews. But there's no word on whether the Bolts plan to use the draft or open market to make such an acquisition.

Thursday 15 November 2012 Updated: 20/11 08:30
STRATFORD District Council are to take the government to court over plans to build 800 homes in Shottery.
Councillors voted on Thursday (November 15) in favour of challenging the green-light given by Secretary of State for Communities Eric Pickles in the face of almost unanimous local opposition, including the district council, Shakespeare Birthplace Trust, and Stratford MP Nadhim Zahawi.
Coun Chris Williams, Chairman of Regulatory Committee, said: "The committee was unanimous in its decision, showing full support for the course of action."
Mr Pickles announced his decision to approve an appeal by JS Bloor Homes to build the huge development on land near Anne Hathaway's Cottage.
The planning application by JS Bloor Homes and Hallam Land Management for up to 800 new homes, a new primary school, health centre and local shops was originally rejected by the district council in 2011. Further to an appeal held earlier this year, the Secretary of State decided planning permission should be granted.
The council will now contest the decision based on legal advice.
Council leader Coun Chris Saint, said: "I was pleased that a unanimous decision was made that reflected the many representations I have received."

Orée Touch Slab
If you were to ask us what materials we'd expect to see a Magic Trackpad competitor made of, wood certainly wouldn't be at the top of that list. In fact, we're not even quite sure how that would physically work. But apparently it does, as Orée is launching its Touch Slab (€150/~$200) on October 21.
Coming in maple or walnut, Touch Slab is a single piece of wood that connects to your Mac over Bluetooth, supposedly supporting a number of multi-touch gestures. The company even includes a sheet that transforms it into a number pad, not unlike Mobee Technology's The Magic Numpad. If you'd like, you can personalize the Slab with one of two graphical themes.

The Grove is a challenging space to play in, and seating is uncomfortable since dinner tables are set up so that you end up sitting perpendicular to the stage. Certainly you can move your chair, but if it's a full house, it is hard to maneuver so that you are not blocking people.Shawn Colvin & Steve Earle: Songs & Stories, Together On Stage info • Jul 14 2014 star this tip starred

Kathleen was great! I was a little disappointed that the seats assigned were in the very last row - even though the venue was not sold out.
Kathleen Madigan is one of the most popular headliners in the country. An American Comedy Award winner as best female stand-up, her accessible and unpretentious style has earned her a devoted and growing following. Unlike any other female comedian working today, Kathleen resonates with a broad base of fans from coast to coast. She packs theaters from Nevada to North Carolina and everywhere in between.
A consulting producer and performer on Lewis Black's "Root of All Evil," on Comedy Central, her standup specials on HBO and Comedy Central have earned rave reviews and her latest CD/DVD In Other Words was one of the most downloaded comedy albums of 2006-2007.
She is a regular guest on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, The Late Show with David Letterman, VH-1, E!, and CNN. She's a mainstay on Comedy Central where she recently debuted a new one-hour special and appeared on The World Stands Up, USO Comedy Tour, World Comedy Tour, and Comedy Central Presents. Kathleen recently served as a talent scout on NBC's Last Comic Standing and is the host of her own show on Sirius Radio Networks, The Kathleen Madigan Show. She's the only 5'2" Mid-Missouri Hoop Shoot Champion in recorded history.

During its 5 year model run between 1987 and 1991, Callaway assembled over 500 total cars under the RPO B2K moniker. The Callaway option package was upgraded slightly each year of its 5-year run. The peak came in 1991 when the visually stunning Speedster body style was unleashed. Only 10 were produced and here's your chance to score Speedster #007 before it's gone.
The Lifestyle
It's no secret that the average age of a Corvette owner is getting older and older with each passing year.
But the National Corvette Museum is hoping to put the brakes on that trend with a permanent children's exhibit that is set to open in the fall.
Charlie Mallon's infatuation with Chevrolet – and Corvettes – started 40 years ago, and now his love for the Bowtie brand may just land him in the Guinness Book of World Records.
It's not every day that you see more than 100 shiny Corvettes in one place.
It's even more unusual when those Corvettes are gathered on Flagstaff Hill in Wollongong, the third largest city in the state of New South Wales, Australia!
If you're in the neighborhood this weekend, make sure you drop by Zip Corvette Part's 35th Anniversary Celebration. The party will be held on Saturday at their headquarters in Mechanicsville, Virginia. Check out all the details at Zip-Corvette.com.
Last night on SPEED, we watched two shops from California duke it out as they attempted to modify and customize a 1986 Corvette in 48 hours. In the end, the blue team hailing from Shinbone Alley in Fresno came out on top with their 1986 Corvette which was finished in two-tone black and copper. The red team, from Sledsville in So-Cal, also went black and gold with their build, but their ambitious plan for customizing their Corvette was just too much to accomplish in 48 hours. Our friends at SPEED sent us some additional photography of the cars taken during filming of the show and we'll share them with you after the jump.
You may have heard about and seen the Top Gear chopper that was captured as it lost control and crashed into the dirt on a timely video shot by a man in Coolidge, Ariz.
What you may not have seen is additional footage that has just surfaced on YouTube that actually shows the speeding Corvette being filmed by the helicopter for a stunt on the popular TV show, then gives an in-copter view of what the crash looked like to the two pilots and shows onlookers rushing to check on the pair.
I wouldn't technically call this a fail as fail usually denotes that the person behind the wheel of the car is somehow at fault for doing something stupid. So having said that, we came across an instagram tweet late this afternoon from @chrisgoulet that said the following:
"Has anyone seen my #vette? #corvette #fail"
We retweeted the photo and asked for details. @ChrisGoulet replied:
"Construction + double-lane left-hand turn = side-swiped and run off the road."
If you're looking for a unique Corvette, then we have found it for you in Spain.
A collector over there drew up a 1/18 scale model and then had a custom Corvette C3 limo made from the sketch.
You already know the premise behind SPEED's Car Warriors: Give two teams identical cars and 48 hours to make it their own. At the end of the show, a winner is chosen by So-Cal Speed Shop's Jimmy Shine. The series airs on SPEED Wednesdays at 9pm ET and if don't already have Car Warriors on your DVR's record list, make sure you add it now as this week's featured build car is the 1986 Corvette.

Southern rapper Khia has decided to celebrate her recent Myspace blog post airing out high profile celebrities like Amber Rose and Rick Ross by dropping a 50-minute diss video.
The clip features Khia reading her blog post for nearly an hour.
"Why are all these h*es — get all this free promotion," Khia asked in the video referring to Amber Rose. "When is this season gonna be over? I just don't understand what the f*ck is really going on. [laughs] … [Beyonce,] we are sick and tired of looking at you and the wigs. … [Chris Brown], what's really going on with you putting all of your business out here all on the Internet? First you're whooping and dragging Rihanna and now you're showing your d*ck down to the knees?" ("4th of July Blog")
Khia released her name-dropping blog post last week.
"Since everyone wants to question if the Queen can spell, I'm bout to show ya in alphabetical order…… I done gave yall b*tches ample enough time to get your sh*t together and you DELAYED motherf*ckers STILL have….. NOT! There's been a lot of F*CK sh*t going on and the Queen is here to address it….. Tiny jacking d*cks, T.I., Jamie Fox, and Chris Brown FLASHING d*cks but we gone get to that…….. Dis here Lilweezyanna TEA is gone be served on ICEEEEEE!…." [sic] (Khia's MySpace)
Khia made no exceptions in her post going after both musicians and models.
"[Amber Rose] She cute!!!! I aint gone judge the h*e because we all know she been on a strippa pole since she was 5 years old, suckin cl*ts since 12, and decided to TRICK and SUCK every n*gga in the game and all of a sudden wanna be a model at 35…Beyoncé: F*ck this hoe………Can Kelly Rowland make a little bit of MONEY???? … Chris Brown: Oooooooooooo Hoooooooney…… How many records you sold????Cuz the sissy's and punks all around the world saw ALLLLLLLL your bizness …Rick Ross: Is you really selling dope on your IPhone?????? I did see you at the Tupac center but I am not sure if you were just there to promote that tired a** single or there to support Queen Affine and the children because all the money you claim you got, I didn't see you cut no check" [sic] (Khia's MySpace)
In 2010, Khia said she was looking to move from rap and into singing.
"I'm kind of bored with hip-hop. I've done everything that I really wanted to do. I'm not really getting into the hip-hop stuff because it's more about the drama than it is about the talent," she tells VIBE about going in a new direction musically. "It's more about the look and the images and all of that instead of about the art and I'm not really into that. I'm trying to do something bigger and better." (VIBE)

Gary Wayne Clark; ¶, ♬ & $ - Novelist, Poet, Grammy® Recording Academy Artist & Venture Capitalist for Creative Destruction.
A writer, musician, and venture capitalist specializing in the development of disruptive innovations, Clark's musical compositions as "Emonesia", "Passage to Niburu" and "Rise of the Chimera" can be heard streaming from the internet around the world. His poetry / photography series "High Country Haiku", transports the reader to the Rocky Mountains of Colorado, where secrets are revealed amid the murmuring voices of the ancients along the Continental Divide.
Formerly the managing partner of a biotech accelerator, it was there in a university laboratory that he created new transgenic organisms by splicing together the genes of multiple species… and began to ponder the scientific and ethical implications of artificial life that spawned his SciFi book and musical soundtrack series, "The Devolution Chronicles."
Nestled high in the mountains of Colorado is home base for the eclectic songwriting duo known as Earamas™, one the best-kept musical secrets since Dan Fogelberg. Critically acclaimed as "brilliant composers and undisputed geniuses behind the controls of a sound board," it comes as no surprise to discover that one of the duo, Glen Dale Spreen, wrote and conducted arrangements for many of Fogelberg's hits.
In the world of Indie Rock, Gary Wayne Clark and Glen Dale Spreen (aka Earamas™) stand alone as an island of uniqueness amid an ocean of conformity. Spreen is an industry veteran arranger, producer and conductor whose notable musical collaborations include Elvis Presley, Dan Fogelberg and B.J Thomas; Clark is an award awaiting author, composer and former bass player / vocalist for a gritty east coast rock band best known as 'one of North Carolina's loudest bands'.
The stark musical diversity of these two Grammy® Recording Academy Members just may be the genesis for their musical alchemy. Their most recent cinematic soundtrack "Rise of the Chimera", inspired by the Sci-Fi book series "The Devolution Chronicles" authored by Clark, received 5 Star Reviews: "With ethereal soundscapes, ambient storytelling, pulsating electronica and theatrical drama, fans of sci-fi and exceptional music will be in unbridled bliss. Rise of the Chimera is a musical and literary work of art with a clean, clear sound that is second to none."
Building on a solid fan base in the UK, Earamas™ has quietly been weaving an unexpected genre bending musical tapestry in the US that seems well equipped to penetrate the Film and Video Game world as they stretch the boundaries of the imagination.
Most recently, he was a member of the Board of Governors of the Tech Coast Angels, overseeing private investments in advanced technologies such as bioengineering, artificial intelligence, nanotechnology, synthetic genes and biowarfare. He lives in the mountains of Colorado with his wife and the spirit of his shapeshifting interspecies translator, a telepathic Great Dane named Raz.
Review by:
Paul Kater
on Dec. 10, 2011 :
Passage to Niburu is the first book of a set of two. The story starts on Earth, with a number of very strange and apparently unrelated abductions. All the abductees are brought together and blasted into space, on the way to a moon station. When they are threatened by a missile, things become precarious for the crew of the moon-shuttle and interesting for the reader. A lieutenant who is not who he claims to be is a bonus to the perils of the people on board.
If you like fast-paced action, diverse characters and interesting creatures that not only come from outer space, true science, witty quips and also ethical questions, then Passage to Niburu is the book for you. It is followed by the book Rise of the Chimera (of which a review will follow as soon as I have read it).
(reviewed long after purchase)

on Dec. 23, 2010 :
This was a fun read! Fast-paced and exciting, with an entertaining ensemble of characters. Interesting mix of mythology and science, but with lots of action that keeps things moving. It leaves you wanting to know what happens next, so please hurry with the next book!

Wait a while to go swimming after eating, or else you'll drown!
Let's say you're going swimming at the beach or pool, when all of a sudden, hunger strikes. After eating, you jump in the water, only to experience a stomach or muscle cramp, causing you to struggle to stay afloat. If you're really unlucky, you might drown. Looks like you should have waited at least 30 minutes or an hour after eating! This is an old wives' tale that has long been debunked. While swimming cramps are not uncommon, and stomach cramps caused by the direction of oxygen away from the stomach muscles are debatable, there have been no reported cases of drownings or near-drownings from them. The best thing to do in the event of a cramp is relax and tense the affected muscle, or stay afloat until help arrives. Otherwise, feel free to satisfy your cravings by the water.

If you are still running a Java 6 application on Google AppEngine, you're about to get into serious trouble. Any moment now, the AppEngine team is going to release version 1.8.9, which will no longer support deployment of Java 6 applications.
Existing applications will keep on running. But you should probably upgrade your application with the necessary urgency, as you will no longer be able to fix bugs.

Making Federal Resources More Accessible for Rural CommunitiesPosted byon July 30, 2012 at 9:00 AM EST
Federal agencies often get requests from local governments and organizations—especially those in rural America—to make information about available grants and resources easier to access and understand. The HUD-DOT-EPA Partnership for Sustainable Communitiesand USDA have just released a publication that does that. Federal Resources for Sustainable Rural Communities is a guide to programs from the four agencies that rural communities can use to promote economic competitiveness, protect healthy environments, and enhance quality of life. It provides key information on funding and technical assistance opportunities as well as examples of how rural communities across the country have put these programs into action to achieve their goals. With this menu of options, local leaders can more easily identify federal resources that support community planning, cost-effective infrastructure, economic development, brownfields revitalization, and other activities that are part of achieving sustainable communities. They can also see program eligibility and matching requirements at a glance.
The White House Rural Council has heard from many stakeholders that keeping track of federal funding availability, researching program requirements, and completing applications can be a heavy burden for communities, particularly small rural communities with limited staff capacity.
Know Your Farmer, Know Your Food - Across the United StatesPosted byon July 17, 2012 at 3:34 PM EST
Today, I hosted a Google+ Hangout with Agriculture Deputy Secretary Kathleen Merrigan to highlight efforts to strengthen local and regional food systems across the United States.
The event was an opportunity to talk about local food with inspiring women from around the country, from Valerie Segrest, of the Muckelshoot Indian Tribe near Seattle, WA, who sees local and traditional foods as a way to preserve her heritage, to Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake of Baltimore, MD, who has made great strides in building her city's local food system to increase access to healthy affordable food. You can watch the full video from the hangout below or on YouTube.
The hangout also marked the launch of the 2.0 version of the USDA's Know Your Farmer, Know Your Food Compass. An innovative digital guide and map, the KYF Compass highlights USDA-supported local food projects around the country. The 2.0 version features thousands of local food projects in all 50 states and includes keyword and zip code search features.

Join a White House Hangout on Local FoodsPosted byon July 13, 2012 at 9:52 AM EST
In every state, people are connecting directly with their food each time they bite into a local apple, grill a local steak or create a salad with local ingredients. Local food is about the products that farmers and ranchers grow and raise. It's about the businesses that bring food from farms to our tables, and efforts to connect consumers with producers like farm to school and agritourism. And it's about the sense of pride behind campaigns like "Buy Fresh, Buy Local," "Appalachian Grown," or "Idaho Preferred" that let consumers know their food dollar is flowing back into their local economy. Women play a prominent role in developing local and regional food systems that are creating jobs, pulling new people into agriculture, connecting communities, and improving health.
On Tuesday, July 17th at 3:00pm EDT, Jon Carson, White House Director of Public Engagement, and I will join inspiring women leaders in the field of local foods through a Google+ Hangout to hear their stories and answer your questions. It's also a chance to see more stories like theirs when we unveil the 2.0 version of the USDA's Know Your Farmer, Know Your Food Compass. An innovative digital guide and map, the KYF Compass highlights USDA-supported local food projects around the country. The 2.0 version features thousands of local food projects in all 50 states and includes keyword and zip code search features.
Will you join us? Here are the details:
- When: Join us at 3 p.m. EDT on Tuesday, July 17th, 2012
- Where: Watch on WhiteHouse.gov/live, or on the White House Google+ page
- Engage: Ask questions and join the discussion on the White House Google+ Page, on Twitter using the hashtag #WHHangout, or here. Questions can be submitted ahead of time and during the event.
Faith-Based Group Rebuilds Alabama Church Following 2011 TornadoesPosted byon June 28, 2012 at 4:56 PM EST
Tornadoes and fires hold more in common than being disasters: they can also make good neighbors.
This is uniquely true in Boligee, AL, a small rural town near the Mississippi border, and Hartville, OH, near Akron. It's a great story of faith communities helping each other -- and it has a beautiful twist at the end.
The story begins in and around Boligee in 1996, when four African American churches burned to the ground. Though it has never been proven, many suspect the fires were related to racial tension. Volunteers from around the world rebuilt the four churches -- including Little Zion Baptist Church -- with the assistance of Quakers and Mennonites.
Fast forward to April 27, 2011, when tornadoes tore through central Alabama, killing 139 people and destroying billions of dollars of property, including the Christian Valley Baptist Church in Boligee, home of a small African American congregation.
The Rev. Tracy Giles, Christian Valley's pastor, didn't know what to do. Insurance would cover $165,000, but estimates to rebuild the church exceeded $500,000. Pastor Giles heard about Mennonite Disaster Service and sat down over coffee with one of its coordinators, Jerry Klassen. Pastor Giles told Klassen, "I need a thread of hope."
Klassen responded, "I can throw you a rope of hope."
Klassen contacted Maple Grove Mennonite Church in Hartville, and soon skilled volunteers from several Hartville churches were making regular treks to Boligee. On Sunday, June 3, 2012, six months after the start of the rebuilding, Christian Valley Baptist Church commemorated its new opening; total cost was $160,000.
"It was God reaching across the borderline," said Deacon Willie Cain.
The Rev. David L. Myers, a Mennonite minister and director of the DHS/FEMA Center for Faith-based & Neighborhood Partnerships, who participated in the dedication ceremony, said it was a mutual opportunity for service. "Christian Valley Baptist cannot be itself without a church to worship in, and Mennonite churches cannot be themselves without a service project."
And here's the beautiful twist: one of the biggest challenges faced every year by thousands of disaster volunteers is finding housing during their time of service. That wasn't the case for the volunteers rebuilding Happy Valley Baptist Church.
Remember Little Zion Baptist Church, which was burned and rebuilt in 1996? That same church provided housing for more than 80 volunteers who traveled more than 800 miles from Hartville to Boligee.
Disasters of all kinds can indeed make good neighbors.
The Rev. David L. Myers is the Director of the Department of Homeland Security Center for Faith-based & Neighborhood Partnerships.
White House Rural Council's Health IT Initiative Helps Community Colleges Tailor Programs to Workforce NeedsPosted byon June 28, 2012 at 9:20 AM EST
Ed. note: This is cross-posted from the U.S. Department of Education Blog
With a major workforce transition underway in many rural hospitals and health clinics, the U.S. Department of Education (ED) and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) hosted a conference call with staff from nearly 80 rural community colleges recently to discuss federal resources available to expand training for health information technology workers.
Developing an adequately trained health IT workforce in rural areas is imperative, and new programs are available to provide incentives for eligible health care providers and hospitals to adopt and meaningfully use electronic health records. The Bureau of Labor Statistics estimates that the health IT workforce will increase by 20 percent by the year 2016. A significant part of that growth will come in rural areas, which are served by approximately 2,000 rural hospitals, 3,700 Rural Health Clinics and approximately 3,000 Community and Migrant Health Centers that are either located in or serve rural communities.

San Francisco Bicycle Accident Attorneys
Callaway & Wolf attorney Boone Callaway rides regularly in San Francisco, and is a member of the S.F. Bicycle Coalition. San Francisco has more bicycle riders per capita than any other American city, but drivers often do not bother to look for bikes — or don't want to give them fair use of the road to which they are entitled by California law, which permits bike riders full use of a lane whenever there is not enough room to ride safely next to a car. We stand up for our bicycle injury clients, insuring that they receive fair treatment and compensation. The California DMV has a comprehensive set of Vehicle Code Sections applicable to bike riders at http://www.dmv.ca.gov/pubs/vctop/vc/tocd11c1a4.htm.
Many bike accidents occur when drivers simply don't see a bike, and change lanes or make a right turn when a bicyclist is to their right. Bicycle riders in California are also often injured by "dooring" — when a person opens their car door without looking to see if a bike is coming. California law requires drivers to look carefully before opening their doors, and are responsible for injuries to bike riders when they break this law.
California has a two-year statute of limitations for bicycle injuries. This is the time in which your case must be settled, or filed in court. This time limit shrinks to six months if the state or a city is responsible. Even though you may have plenty of time before your time limit is up, Callaway & Wolf can help guide you through the process from day one, helping to insure that the proper groundwork is done for your claim.
If you or someone you know has been injured in a bicycle accident in California, contact us for a free consultation or call 415-541-0300 to speak to a California bike accident lawyer experienced in handling bicycle injury claims.

Jack Reacher (M) 130 mins
Let's get one thing out of the way - Tom Cruise is great. Playing the eponymous hero of Lee Child's best-selling novels, admittedly he is "supposed" to be taller, more rugged, "a drifter with nothing to lose" (which Cruise clearly is not) - but Cruise plays it like he did in A Few Good Men and keeps us engaged, even amused, throughout the two-hour running time.
Child is evidently a success because he knows how to spin a yarn, and since his book is adapted by director Christopher McQuarrie (writer of The Usual Suspects) this tale delivers in spades. Evoking 90s whodunit movies like Kiss the Girls, it sets up a shocking crime, throws us some curve balls, introduces a renegade protaganist who immediately intuits that all is not as it seems, and then partners us on a merry dance.
Crucial to our engagement is the support of ex-Bond girl Rosamund Pike and fellow Brit David Oyelowo (still best known to me as Danny from Spooks). The ever-excellent Richard Jenkins plays the district attorney against whom Reacher and his lawyer must fight to uncover the truth. Even Robert Duvall gets in on the action. The only slight miscasting is legendary director Werner Herzog as the German-intoned Russian baddie.
Once all the surprises are revealed, however, the goody and baddies lay down their guns and engage in a pretty standard rain-drenched bit of mano a mano. But, despite this Jack Reacher is a force to be reckoned with, and Cruise owns him.

A few weeks ago, on January 16, Divya Mehra and I have delivered a webinar on using the JBoss Data Grid for improving the scalability and performance of web applications. As expected, the webinar has elicited a lot of questions, not all of which could be answered in the allotted time. As they were really interesting though we are trying to answer them here, also for the benefit of a larger audience.
You can watch the webinar here and download it from here.
In our application we have WebSphere running and use JSF + Richfaces and Spring with Oracle 11g. Can JBoss Data Grid be integrated even if we do no use JBoss EAP?
Yes it can. You can use it in either mode: library or remote client-server.
Can data grid operations participate in a distributed transaction? If so, does it ensure that the commit occurs throughout a cluster? Will all nodes be updated?
Yes, JBoss Data Grid supports distributed transactions in both library and remote client-server mode. The nodes can be enlisted as XA resources. Changes will be propagated across the cluster, but are guaranteed to be propagated to all nodes by the end of the transaction only if the replication mode is synchronous. If the replication mode is asynchronous, there are no such guarantees, although the changes will be eventually replicated.
What usage statistics are available from JDG (e.g. cache hits / misses)? Does a UI for viewing these come with the product or is it just JMX data that the client application has to process?
The data collected from monitoring the JBoss Data Grid activity is available as JMX MBeans. It can be visualized using the JBoss Operations Network, included in the product, or with any other JMX tools and clients (jconsole, VisualVM).
Eventual consistency will be available only in V7.0? What happens now if remote distributed JDG nodes cannot communicate and replicate an update? Would the client hang in that case?
Eventual consistency refers to a weaker consistency model than the strong consistency model which is currently implemented by JBoss Data Grid, maximizing availability at the expense of consistency (refer to the CAP theorem for details). With the current strong consistency model, in the case of communication failure, the behaviour of the client will largely depend on the synchronization model chosen – in the case of synchronous replication, the client may block until the client times out (but never indefinitely). In the case of asynchronous replication it will return immediately (even if replication to other nodes isn't complete yet). Since JBoss Data Grid currently focuses on a strong concurrency model, eventual consistency will be effectively a new feature of the framework, allowing to deal with the state being inconsistent across the cluster under the control of the framework (for example, a GET operation may involve examining all copies of the data and a quorum-based decision as to which is the correct one).
If I use JBoss Data Grid in Library Mode, how do I add a node concretely?
In Library mode, each application creates its own node, embedded in the application. If multiple deployments of the application exist (for example in a cluster environment), the nodes will communicate with each other.
Is there any way to delete or clear data from the JBoss Data Grid without having to restart it?
Sure, there is. Data can be removed explicitly through remove() or clear() operations in the application, and their equivalents in the command-line interface (CLI) available in JBoss Data Grid 6.1. Eviction and expiration strategies can be set up as well, for removing unused or stale data from the cache.
Is there a strategy for distributing data in the grid and somehow coordinating parallel work on that distributed data?
JBoss Data Grid will provide a distributed execution framework in JBoss Data Grid 6.1, which will provide a flexible framework for coordinating parallel work. Building on top of that, at a higher level, map/reduce capabilities will be available as well.
When you add additional data grid nodes, do you use distributed locking across nodes and, if so, what impact does that have to the performace of the data grid as more nodes are added?
JBoss Data Grid uses lazy remote locking by default, which reduces traffic. But generally speaking, in a data grid scenario, only a subset of the data is available on each node (and there is a limited number of replicas across the cluster), so the addition of new nodes does not necessarily result in an increase of the number of locks. It all depends on how many nodes the data is replicated. The impact of distributed locking can be further reduced if the grouping API is used, to group keys commonly updated together within a single transaction.
But the demo performance data of 20% improvement is based on an in-memory cache without remote calls compared to remote database calls. It's not a fair comparison. What about a remote cache compared to a remote database?
We will try to produce more data to illustrate other scenarios. It should be noted, however, that JBoss Data Grid is an in-memory data grid by design. Also, while remote calls add to the overhead, the biggest cost in the type of scenario we envisioned comes from the more expensive IO operations elicited by the database access, as well as the reduced concurrency when locking data in the database.
Does the JBoss Data Grid API have a way to ask for all of the keys (across the cluster) — sort of a master index?
In JBoss Data Grid 6.1, this will be possible through a map-reduce operation.
I saw data being accessed using get/put. Do you use SQL or NoSQL to access data?
JBoss Data Grid uses a key-value pair model so access to data is similar to a map. However, other methods of searching for data, such as index-based querying and map-reduce will be available in JBoss Data Grid 6.1.
Does the data grid allow me to specify how many copies of a piece of data are created and distributed? If I have a 20 node cluster, can I request that it be replicated to 2 of the 20 for example?
Yes, the replication and distribution strategies are configurable.

The definition of IoT is not new, in fact it's been around for over a decade. What has changed is the public's awareness that the technology we use on a daily basis has caught up on the vision of an always on, always connected world. If you look into the details of what comprises the IoT, you'll see that it includes everything from cloud computing, Big Data analytics, "Things," Web communication, applications, network, storage, etc. It is essentially including everything connected online from hardware to software, or as we like to say, it's an Internet of many different things.

Hilary's Scary Stalker
Hilary's Scary Stalker
Hilary Duff has filed court documents in LA claiming that she has 2 stalkers and she's fearful for her life. Hilary and her boyfriend claim one is a 19-year-old who moved to the U.S. solely to meet and get involved with Hilary. The other is his 50-year-old roommate and paparazzi. TMZ reports:
The court documents state the man, whose first name is Max, "admitted to being 'obsessed' with her, has stated his intention of 'removing' his 'enemies' (i.e., those who prevent him from being with her), has stated his intention of purchasing a weapon, and has threatened to kill himself and to engage in dramatic actions to get her attention."
According to the documents, Max "has stated his belief that Hilary is in love with him and that Joel Madden stands in their way." The documents state, "Over the past six weeks, the defendants have engaged in an accelerated effort to make contact with Hilary, including visits to her neighborhood, to her mother's home, to her boyfriend's neighborhood ... to Mr. Madden's concert venue, and direct calls to Hilary's manager."

The blush (tea rose) queen sheets present a nice surprise as you fold back my Touch of Class matelasse bedding ensembles (Provence and Floral). They are satiny and nearly wrinkle-free if II remove them from the dryer to smooth and fold immediately.
I love the softness of the material. They wash well. They were featured on the page I purchased my quilt from and that caught my eye since I was redoing all my bedding.
silky and high-quality. the monogram size is nice. will buy another.
Not only is the fitted sheet too small for my 16" mattress, but the flat sheet does not cover the bed on both sides like it should. Also the color is more of a gold than a taupe. I am disappointed.
I love the sheets, they are soft and comfortable. I have issues with skin sensitivity and they are soft enough they don't irritate my skin. I would buy them again and probably will.

Students Feeding Students
Despite the chill in the air, 16 Leo Club members stood in front of Stop and Shop in Miller Place on Nov. 2, collecting canned goods for Island Harvest's Students Feeding Students challenge.
Throughout the day, the students collected 35 boxes of food and $200. They hope it is enough to retain their title of Suffolk County collection champions.
Last fall, the Leo Club, under the direction of advisers Brian Chalmers and Kristine Vaccaro, collected a few hundred pounds of food, placing them in first place and earning a trophy and visit from a former New York Jets player, who signed autographs. Ms. Vaccaro was also invited to appear on Katie Couric's talk show.
Heading to States
Several athletes will be heading to state championships. Among them are the girls varsity soccer team, which defeated Nassau's Wheatley High School to claim the Class B Long Island and regional championships. The girls will move on to play the Aquinas Institute on Nov. 15 at Cortland HS in the quarterfinal state championship game.
Also qualifying for a state championship is Rita Chen, who participates in the Independent Swimming program. Rita finished second in the 100-yard freestyle with a state qualifying time of 53.70. She will swim in the state championship meet on Nov. 21 at Ithaca College.
Royal Fall Sports Accomplishments
Varsity boys cross-country athletes James Burke Parker Schoch and Justin Julich competed in the NYS Championship race on Nov. 8 and 9. James finished sixth in the Class C championship.
• The varsity boys golf team had six players play in the league tournament, with Kris Cheslock, Shane DeVincenzo and Josh Gelfond qualifying for the county tournament that will be held in the spring.
• The varsity girls volleyball team played in the Suffolk County Semifinals on Oct. 31 and lost a tight match to Babylon. It was the first time in four years that this team entered postseason play.
• Varsity Girls Tennis team athlete Rachel Collins placed third in Division III and was a Top 16 Singles player in Suffolk County.
• Varsity Girls Cross Country team athlete Aileen Schretzmayer (8th grade) ran
in the Counties on Oct. 31 and missed qualifying for the state meet by two places. Aileen was a top ten finisher.
Grant for Green Roof Approved
The high school will soon be home to a new green roof, complete with vegetation, thanks to a grant that was awarded to the school district by the New York State Water Quality Improvement Program.
According to plant facilities administrator Fred Koelbel, the $206,250 grant will allow the district to construct the new 3,400-square-foot green roof atop an existing flat roof that sits over the boys' locker room.
Not only will the new green roof be aesthetically, but it is also environmentally friendly and includes an educational component.
Environmentally, the green roof will be designed to use rainfall to water the vegetation that will be planted, preventing storm water runoff that normally flows into the Port Jefferson Harbor.
The project, which will require minimal maintenance once complete, will also allow for an Environmental Club monitoring project. The Environmental Club will be measuring the amount of rainfall absorbed by the foliage, as well as monitoring the temperatures of the classrooms that surround the roof, since the new green roof should keep those classrooms warmer in the winter and cooler in the spring and summer.
Mr. Koelbel said he hopes this project will a serve as an example of the green technology that is now available to reduce polluted runoff, improve water quality and restore the habitat of New York's waterways.
Star Students Named in READ Campaign
Six elementary students have been named Star Students in the American Library Association's year-long Read Campaign.
Those chosen this month as Star Students include: Samuel Matvya, kindergarten; Elizabeth Campo, first grade; Colin Veit, second grade; Julia Perrotta, third grade; Jack Speidell, fourth grade; and Huda Jatoi, fifth grade.
School librarian Selinda Moore said all of the students were chosen for their excellent attitude, behavior and work ethic in the library.
As a reward, the students have their photos displayed on the bulletin board outside the library along with a summary of their favorite books.

«Earlier this year, the Met became the first art museum to ever receive a TEDx license to hold a conference in the style of the globally known TED Talks. We chose the (broadly interpreted) theme of Icons and started to plan right away...»
We began with five curators—some of the best storytellers in the Museum: Andrew Bolton, Navina Haidar, Melanie Holcomb, Jeff Rosenheim, and Luke Syson.
Then we added one of our Trustees, the acclaimed author Andrew Solomon.
We, of course, thought about artists and invited Lorna Simpson, Alice Attie, and, an icon in his own right, Bill T. Jones. We also wondered if we could do the first wordless TED talk: enter artist James Nares.
We considered architecture and asked Nicolai Ouroussoff to think about New York's iconic Breuer Building.
Humor seemed like a good idea, so Maira Kalman and Negin Farsad came on board.
And science—from no less than Nobel Laureate Eric Kandel.
We also knew the day needed performance so Kyle Abraham, Meredith Monk, and STREB Extreme Action Company joined So Percussion, our TEDxMet house band.
The list was capped off by our discovery of Chartgirl, tackling one of the mightiest Met icons of them all,
J. Pierpont Morgan.
That's how our TEDxMet line-up emerged: strong, inspiring, ready to spread some ideas in a whole new way. Be there in person or watch the live stream, October 19, 10:00 a.m.–5:00 p.m.
Made possible by Adrienne Arsht.
We welcome your participation! Please note that while lively discussion and strong opinions are encouraged, the Museum reserves the right to delete comments that it deems inappropriate for any reason. Comments are moderated and publication times may vary.

GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) -- James Jones caught a long touchdown pass from Aaron Rodgers, and the Packers defense contained the undermanned Detroit Lions for a 22-9 win Sunday.
Mason Crosby kicked five field goals. The Packers' offense struggled to get into the end zone until Rodgers found Jones on an 83-yard completion down the left sideline for a 16-3 lead late in the third quarter.
It provided enough of a cushion for a defense that had the luxury of facing the Lions minus star receiver Calvin Johnson, out with a knee injury. Penalties also bogged down Detroit.
The Packers extended their winning streak in Wisconsin over the Lions to 23.
