Scott Jenson leads a project called The Physical Web within the Chrome team at Google. Project members are working to take the scalability and openness of the web and use it to talk to the exponentially exploding range of smart devices. Nearly every company today working on the IoT comes up with the same basic solution: use my server and you'll be fine. But if we really believe there will be trillions of these devices, that just can't scale. We need a system that is open a scalable and by using the URL as a basic building block, we open this up and get the same resilience that the web enjoys.

The Domain Name Service (DNS) is one of the most important components in networking infrastructure, enabling users and services to access applications by translating URLs (names) into IP addresses (numbers). Because every icon and URL and all embedded content on a website requires a DNS lookup loading complex sites necessitates hundreds of DNS queries. In addition, as more internet-enabled 'Things' get connected, people will rely on DNS to name and find their fridges, toasters and toilets.

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.

The major cloud platforms defy a simple, side-by-side analysis. Each of the major IaaS public-cloud platforms offers their own unique strengths and functionality.

I'm trying to build a regex that will match BBCode attributes. I want it to match attributes without quotation marks (
attr=value) and also with them (
attr="value"), but don't match if there's only one mark (
attr="value or
I managed to get close to a solution with this regex
/\[size\=((?=")"(.*?)"|([^"]*))\](.*?)\[\/size\]/is (for size tags), using a lookahead, but it places the match for the quoted and unquoted attributes on different indexes. Here's a scheme:
| Input | Match #1 | Match #2 | Match #3 | Match #4 |
| [size="7"]txt[/size] | "7" | 7 | | txt |
| [size=7]txt[/size] | 7 | | 7 | txt |
While this is not a major issue, I'd like to know if there's any wya to match them to the same index.
Background Info:
Basically, I'm working on improving a BBCode parser. As for now, it only allows attributes to be placed without quotation marks
". Now, that brings a whole lot of limitations to it, so I'm adding support to quoted attributes. Problem is I can't break backwards compatibility, so I gotta come up with something that works for both cases.

For those of us who had been holding out hope for a comprehensive bill that would curb U.S. climate emissions and promote renewable energy, disappointment and frustration have officially set in.
The Senate has scrapped plans for an attempt to push through a climate bill this summer.
This is especially disturbing because the proposals being considered were designed to meet the industry halfway by using market-based solutions that allow companies to reduce emissions in the way that they believe is most cost-effective. This approach diverges from the approaches used before in the Clean Water and Clean Air Acts, for example. But industry still shot it down.
Sadly, this is a classic example of "political reality" versus "real reality".

Jacoby Ellsbury on Elvis Andrus, Scott Boras and extensions
|04.04.13 at 8:53 am ET
NEW YORK — When Jacoby Ellsbury decided to hire Scott Boras as his agent, a conclusion about his future seemed obvious. The center fielder would never sign an extension with the Red Sox; his free agency was viewed as an inevitability.
That outlook may yet be borne out. Ellsbury is now two games into what may well be his final campaign with the Red Sox. There's been no evidence of negotiations between the team and Ellsbury or Boras on a long-term deal to keep the 2005 first-round pick in Boston.
But to characterize that as a byproduct of the fact that Boras is Ellsbury's agent seems an oversimplification.
In that vein, it was hard to overlook the comments by Rangers shortstop Elvis Andrus, a Boras client who just signed an eight-year, $120 million extension with opt-outs after the 2018 and 2019 seasons. Andrus made clear that Boras works for his players, rather than being some all-powerful force who dictates the lives of his clients.
'We're the boss,' Andrus said. 'I know everybody thinks that way about Scott, but it's different when you are the one in that position. He works for us.'
Andrus is not alone. Jason Varitek, for instance, signed a deal with the Sox while he was still arbitration eligible, giving up one of his potential free agent years by signing a three-year contract after the 2001 campaign. Carlos Gonzalez signed a seven-year, $80 million deal with the Rockies after two years in the big leagues. Jered Weaver passed on a potentially monumental free agent payday in order to sign a five-year, $85 million deal with the Angels.
All of those players were Boras clients. All passed on free agency to remain with their teams, making it clear to their agent where they wanted to play.
Ellsbury says that he has the same choice. His choice of agent does not foreclose the possibility of staying in Boston, or even searching for middle ground on a long-term deal before he reaches free agency.
"You have examples like CarGo, Weaver, Andrus, Varitek — there's a ton of examples of guys that have signed before [free agency]," said Ellsbury. "[Boras] gives you advice, but it's up to you to make your own decision."
In the case of Andrus, Ellsbury expressed enthusiasm for the fact that the 24-year-old gleaned a tremendous contract that will allow him to continue playing in a place that he enjoys. And, of course, it can't hurt Ellsbury's free agent outlook to see an up-the-middle player like Andrus — a career .275 hitter with a .343 OBP and .354 slugging mark who has averaged four homers and 31 steals per season in his four big league seasons, who combines on-base skills, speed and excellent defense — getting a nine-figure contract.
"I'm definitely happy for Elvis. I know him a little bit, had an opportunity to spend a little bit of time with him this offseason. It's got to be an exciting time for him," said Ellsbury. "He's a good kid. He works hard. Obviously, he plays a premium position and plays it really well. You can only be happy for someone like that."

Short Cuts
What do dreams have to with prayer? Aren't they just random images of our mind?
In 1867 Pope Pius IX was upset with John Bosco because he wouldn't take his dreams seriously enough. Nine years earlier when Pope Pius IX met with the future saint who worked with neglected boys, he learned of the dreams that John had been having since the age of nine, dreams that had revealed God's will for John's life. So Pius IX had made a request, "Write down these dreams and everything else you have told me, minutely and in their natural sense." Pius IX saw John's dreams as a legacy for those John worked with and as an inspiration for those he ministered to.
Despite Scripture evidence and Church tradition respecting dreams, John had encountered skepticism when he had his first dream at the age of nine. The young Bosco dreamed that he was in a field with a crowd of children. The children started cursing and misbehaving. John jumped into the crowd to try to stop them -- by fighting and shouting. Suddenly a man with a face filled with light appeared dressed in a white flowing mantle. The man called John over and made him leader of the boys. John was stunned at being put in charge of these unruly gang. The man said, "You will have to win these friends of yours not with blows but with gentleness and kindness." As adults, most of us would be reluctant to take on such a mission -- and nine year old John was even less pleased. "I'm just a boy," he argued, "how can you order me to do something that looks impossible." The man answered, "What seems so impossible you must achieve by being obedient and acquiring knowledge." Thenthe boys turned into the wild animals they had been acting like. The man told John that this is the field of John's life work. Once John changed and grew in humility, faithfulness, and strength, he would see a change in the children -- a change that the man now demonstrated. The wild animals suddenly turned into gentle lambs.
When John told his family about his dream, his brothers just laughed at him. Everyone had a different interpretation of what it meant: he would become a shepherd, a priest, a gang leader. His own grandmother echoed the sage advice we have heard through the years, "You mustn't pay any attention to dreams." John said, "I felt the same way about it, yet I could never get that dream out of my head."
Eventually that first dream led him to minister to poor and neglected boys, to use the love and guidance that seemed so impossible at age nine to lead them to faithful and fulfilled lives. He started out by learning how to juggle and do tricks to catch the attention of the children. Once he had their attention he would teach them and take them to Mass. It wasn't always easy -- few people wanted a crowd of loud, bedraggled boys hanging around. And he had so little money and help that people thought he was crazy. Priests who promised to help would get frustrated and leave.
Two "friends" even tried to commit him to an institution for the mentally ill. They brought a carriage and were planning to trick him into coming with him. But instead of getting in, John said, "After you" and politely let them go ahead. When his friends were in the carriage he slammed the door and told the drive to take off as fast as he could go!
Through it all he found encouragement and support through his dreams. In one dream, Mary led him into a beautiful garden. There were roses everywhere, crowding the ground with their blooms and the air with their scent. He was told to take off his shoes and walk along a path through a rose arbor. Before he had walked more than a few steps, his naked feet were cut and bleeding from the thorns. When he said he would have to wear shoes or turn back, Mary told him to put on sturdy shoes. As he stepped forward a second time, he was followed by helpers. But the walls of the arbor closed on him, the roof sank lower and the roses crept onto the path. Thorns caught at him from all around. When he pushed them aside he only got more cuts, until he was tangled in thorns. Yet those who watched said, "How lucky Don John is! His path is forever strewn with roses! He hasn't a worry in the world. No troubles at all!" Many of the helpers, who had been expecting an easy journey, turned back, but some stayed with him. Finally he climbed through the roses and thorns to find another incredible garden. A cool breeze soothed his torn skin and healed his wounds.
In his interpretation, the path was his mission, the roses were his charity to the boys, and the thorns were the distractions, the obstacles, and frustrations that would stand in his way. The message of the dream was clear to John: he must keep going, not lose faith in God or his mission, and he would come through to the place he belonged.
Often John acted on his dreams simply by sharing them, sometimes repeating them to several different individuals or groups he thought would be affected by the dream. "Let me tell you about a dream that has absorbed my mind," he would say.
The groups he most often shared with were the boys he helped -- because so many of the dreams involved them. For example, he used several dreams to remind the boys to keep to a good and moral life. In one dream he saw the boys eating bread of four kinds -- tasty rolls, ordinary bread, coarse bread, and moldy bread, which represented the state of the boys' souls. He said he would be glad to talk to any boys who wanted to know which bread they were eating and then proceeded to use the occasion to give them moral guidance.
He died in 1888, at the age of seventy-two. His work lives on in the Salesian order he founded.
In His Footsteps:
John Bosco found God's message in his dreams. If you have some question or problem in your life, ask God to send you an answer or help in a dream. Then write down your dreams. Ask God to help you remember and interpret the dreams that come from God.
Saint John Bosco, you reached out to children whom no one cared for despite ridicule and insults. Help us to care less about the laughter of the world and care more about the joy of the Lord. Amen

As much as information technology has changed in the last 10 years, the next decade promises even more significant change. And as cloud technology becomes more prevalent, IT enterprises will be driven to reconsider the status quo around just about everything we know, including physical infrastructure, virtualization, automation, service management, and security. Cloud technology and virtualization of virtually everything means rethinking the economic models around physical infrastructure, the emergence of a new class of providers as well as a greater degree of standardization around virtualized OS and middleware configurations.

The security devil is always in the details of the attack: the ones you've endured, the ones you prepare yourself to fend off, and the ones that, you fear, will catch you completely unaware and defenseless. The Internet of Things (IoT) is nothing if not an endless proliferation of details. It's the vision of a world in which continuous Internet connectivity and addressability is embedded into a growing range of human artifacts, into the natural world, and even into our smartphones, appliances, and physical persons. In the IoT vision, every new "thing" - sensor, actuator, data source, data con...

The JOHN TACKITT [not TACKETT], b 9 Jun 1801, Perhaps in Lee Co., VA, was the son of Lancaster Tackitt and Elender [no surname known. DonŐt know where someone came up with the name of HAMPTON.] This JOHN is found in Franklin & Fayette Co., AL by the 1830 Census, along with many other members of the family. No proof that LANCASTER or his wife were born in Lee Co., VA, but that part of the state is a good guesstimate [probably in Washington or Charlotte Co., VA]. I have a copy of the original family register for the family of LANCASTER TACKITT.
This JOHN, however, was not the same as JOHN noted in the Lee Co., VA census records you note. We have, unfortunately, not determined his parentage. This JOHN had children by Milly, named David M., Francis Marion, Dennis B., and Elizabeth. By his 2nd wife, S. [name not known], he had John Oliver and Richard.

Where the Heart Beats

A "heroic" biography of John Cage and his "awakening through Zen Buddhism"—"a kind of love story" about a brilliant American pioneer of the creative arts who transformed himself and his culture (The New York Times)
Composer John Cage sought the silence of a mind at peace with itself—and found it in Zen Buddhism, a spiritual path that changed both his music and his view of the universe. "Remarkably researched, exquisitely written," Where the Heart Beats weaves together "a great many threads of cultural history" (Maria Popova, Brain Pickings) to illuminate Cage's struggle to accept himself and his relationship with choreographer Merce Cunningham. Freed to be his own man, Cage originated exciting experiments that set him at the epicenter of a new avant-garde forming in the 1950s. Robert Rauschenberg, Jasper Johns, Andy Warhol, Yoko Ono, Allan Kaprow, Morton Feldman, and Leo Castelli were among those influenced by his 'teaching' and 'preaching.' Where the Heart Beats shows the blossoming of Zen in the very heart of American culture.
Kay Larson was the the art critic for New York Magazine for fourteen years and has been a frequent contributor to the New York Times. In 1994, she entered Zen practice at a Buddhist monastery in upstate New York.
"Heroic… fascinating." --New York Times
"Inspirational… exuberant." --Los Angeles Times
"Revelatory… Where the Heart Beats may not just be the best book written yet about John Cage; it's probably also one of the most substantive-yet-readable entryways into the nexus of 20th-century American art and the immortal qualities of Eastern thought… one of the most profound, not to mention unexpected, gifts imaginable."--Slate
"Absorbing… no future commentator on Cage's work or influence will be able to ignore Larson's contribution…a milestone in contemporary cultural criticism." --San Francisco Chronicle
"Remarkable… without a doubt the richest, most stimulating, most absorbing book I've read in the past year, if not decade — remarkably researched, exquisitely written, weaving together a great many threads of cultural history into a holistic understanding of both Cage as an artist and Zen as a lens on existence… Not unlike Cage's music, Where the Heart Beats: John Cage, Zen Buddhism, and the Inner Life of Artists is impossible to distill, to synthesize, to relay. Rather, its goodness is best experienced in full, with complete surrender. "--Brain Pickings
"Strange and wonderful... a gloriously rich reading experience, studded with layers upon layers of deeply inspiring and endlessly fascinating paths. One of the best books of the year in any category." --NPR.org (A Favorie Music Book of the Year)

Lila Downs / Natalia Clavier / Pamela Rodriguez / Raul Campos in association with LATIN Alternative Music Conference
Thursday, July 11, 2013
6:00 p.m.–10:00 p.m.
Please note: This event has already taken place. Please use the Search options on the right to find upcoming events.
Born in Oaxaca, Mexico, Lila Downs embraces and highlights her origins in the U.S. and Mexico. Downs' roots have always been an important aspect of her music, as well as the topics of political and social justice, immigration, and transformation, all embedded in the human condition. For over a decade, Lila Downs has traversed the planet, bringing her dramatic and highly unique reinvention of traditional Mexican music and original compositions fused with Blues, Jazz, Soul, and African roots. Downs has long been recognized by the music industry, receiving a Latin GRAMMY for the 2004 release, Una Sangre and a GRAMMY nomination for 2008's Shake Away, which was also named one of the top ten albums of that year by WOMEX, the leading world music organization. In 2012, Downs released her album, Pecados Y Milagros, which won a Latin GRAMMY for Best Folk Album and a GRAMMY award in 2013 for Best Regional Mexican Album.
Known as the long-time live voice of Thievery Corporation, Natalia Clavier's new solo album, Lumen was produced by GRAMMY-winning producer Adrian Quesada. With a sultry mix of Jazz-inspired vocals, electronic textures and global influences, Lumen further develops the sound Clavier cultivated while recording and touring with both Thievery Corporation and her husband, Argentinean singer-songwriter Federico Aubele.
Born and raised in Lima, Pamela Rodriguez has always been enticed by other paths of life, territories and cities. In her lyrics, Rodriguez intertwines topics of love and indifference with her own experiences to create melodies out of feminine intuition and the instinctive need to interpret reality through a song. In 2006, Rodriguez was nominated for a Latin GRAMMY Award as "Best New Artist" and in 2012 received a second nomination for "Best Contemporary Pop Album". Rodriguez has recorded three albums, with her most recent, Reconocer, being released in 2011. In her latest album, Rodriguez reflects on her recent experiences and tells her audience about exile, freedom, love and maternity, and her constant changes of countries and the sounds between here and there. The album has fresh sounds, Indie Pop and Alternative music influences, as it showcases Rodriguez's ability to incorporate different themes and styles into her lyrics to create a musical masterpiece.
The voice of pirate radio in the mid-90s and a native Angeleno, Raul Campos has come from the underground to represent the eclectic airwaves of KCRW in Los Angeles. Campos brings his audience to a place where funky beats, underground rhythms, heartbroken guitars, Latin-loving and daring melodies live. Campos also continues his work behind the scenes as a remixer, putting his special spin on tracks by famed artists such as Femi Kuti, Jill Scott and many more.

November 23, 2008
Former University of Virginia lacrosse standout Will Barrow was found dead Saturday. Charlottesville Police tell CBS19 that they do not suspect foul play in his death.
Barrow was a captain for the UVa lacrosse team before being drafted earlier this year by the Chicago Machine of Major League Lacrosse.
According to the university Web site, Barrow, 22, was also working towards an undergraduate degree at UVa.
MLL Commissioner David Gross said in a press release, "Everyone associated with Major League Lacrosse is saddened over the untimely loss of Will. During this difficult time, we would like to offer our condolences to his family, his friends, and to everyone else whose lives he touched."
Stick with CBS19 Sports as we'll have information on a memorial service for Barrow as it becomes available.

Zacks Consensus Estimate. Results were aided by top-line growth,
partially offset by higher operating expenses.
We view Ameriprise as an asset for yield-seeking investors, given
the company's regular dividend payments and consistent share
repurchase programs. Ameriprise has been meaningfully deploying
capital to boost investors' confidence. Moreover, the company
operates a well-diversified portfolio that enables it to grow
organically. Additionally, from time to time, the company has
grown inorganically and restructured its portfolio to meet the
changing market demands in modern times.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for 2013 increased 2.0% to $6.76 per
share over the last 60 days. For 2014, the Zacks Consensus
Estimate advanced 1.7% to $7.82 per share over the same time
frame. Hence, Ameriprise currently carries a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy).
On the flip side, increased expenses remain a major concern for
Ameriprise. Additionally, the sluggish economic recovery, low
interest-rate environment and the European sovereign debt crisis
can lead to outflows, decreased demand, management fee revenues
and reduced benefits from economies of scale.
