A while back we asked readers to submit videos of their Chevy HHR problems; specifically, we'd asked for videos where readers were telling us their HHR won't shut off. A number of readers submitted videos, and we've had hundreds of HHR owner comments going off on HHR problems. While there hasn't to date been an official recall over at the NHTSA, some of our readers did report receiving a letter from GM stating that they could have their car fixed at no cost—however, it appears not everyone got that letter and the fix depended on what the HHR VIN number.
In the meantime, we've just received this comment from a woman whose HHR wouldn't shut off when she pulled in to buy some gas—with an infant in the car, mind you—so she was forced to leave her car running while she fueled up. What was that about safety at the tank that we're always told—? Something about NOT leaving the car running… Hmm, guess GM didn't hear that one…
Just went to get gas and couldn't get the key to move or engine to turn off – had to gas up with it running! As a woman alone with an infant in the car, Thank God for my smart phone and all you folks posting some "quick" fixes to put my mind at ease that I wasn't the only one!
When I got to my inlaws, I was able to pull the fuse for the transmission/engine console and the engine cut off. Key is still stuck so had to pull fuse for lights and disconnect battery cable also. VERY INCONVENIENT!!
Not happy to hear this isn't covered under warranties but I am going to try nonetheless. More pissed to be losing the time from work to fix something so ridiculous! I do not have time or patience for this. STEP UP, GM!
And just this morning we hear from a senior citizen who's been put in a bind with Chevy HHR repairs. Read what she has to say:
I do not have a video but I have a 2006 Springtime Edition HHR and about 6 weeks ago the key stuck in the ignition and would not shut off all the power and ran down battery so had it towed to Chevrolet Dealer in Vicksburg, MI and it cost $420.
Now tomorrow I have to have it towed again because it would start and stop at stop light so took it to dealer and he put it on the computer and told me it was a short in the brain and estimate is $437.00 Could not decide to pay that much after having the earlier $420 so took it home and now it will not make it out of the driveway. Chevrolet should be ashamed of themselves for having a vehicle with problems like this, I only have 39,000 miles on it. I am a senior citizen with limited income and thought I bought a dependable vehicle but will never buy another Chevrolet. I intend to let Chevrolet know that I do not believe these problems are isolated but there are other people who bought HHR's with problems much the same as mine and they should be responsible for the repairs.
Let us know if you've had Chevy HHR problems, and how you've fared with GM service (or not).
Where do I even start? I have a 2009 HHR. While I love the look and feel of the car, it's been more trouble than it's really worth. Within 2 weeks of having the car, I had to have rotors replaced. Two weeks after that, I was driving along and heard a scary clunk. Managed to get the car to work, had a tow truck driver come pick it up and took it to the local dealer. Get a call and find out the caliper bolt BACKED out. (They were counting lucky stars that day that I wasn't injured). Six months later, more brakes. We've had to do new brakes on this thing every six months. Recently found out that my back brakes don't work. Took it into Chevy and they said there was nothing to repair. Their explanation for the brakes is that it must be the way I drive, but my husband and I switched cars after the most recent brake repair and the car did the same thing. His truck brakes are still good. If I have to hit the brakes to avoid an accident, it's a hope and a prayer that they'll work. Usually, it's a terrible clunk and a kick back into the brake pedal. I've had to head towards a ditch several times because the brakes wouldn't catch. The next issues is the electrical system in the car. Sometimes the warnings ding and sometimes they don't. My wiper blades have several settings, but two speeds. I can't hit a bump in the car (I live in ND good luck on that, right?) without it sounding like the car's bottoming out and falling apart. I've replaced the battery more times than I even care to admit. . . The car's crap, beautiful crap, but crap.
I bought a 2011 HHR about 2 years ago – and so far I had no real problems and had the recall fo the Igntion Key months ago. I was advised by the Chrysler Dear that the brakes had been changed when purchasing the car, and upon signing the contract, I noticed just the front brakes were replaced with no detail. The car was bought with 29,000 miles. Less than a year later I replaced the rear brakes as I did not want to damage the drums, and I periodically had the brakes inspected – and 2 weeks ago I replaced the front brakes at 45,000 miles as I did not want to damage the Rotors. My son's brother-in-law noticed that the front Rotors were kind of thin – I had always assumed that the front Rotors were cut when the dealer replaced the brakes. The car has run smooth all the time – and I'm hoping the 2011 may have corrections say compared to a 2009? I keep thinking though that the dealer replaced the front brakes at 29,000 – were they checking for a problem. Were issues on the 2011 corrected as the last model yeaar of the HHR? I like the car, but I ride the car gentle too with no heavy long distance driving of the HHR – not recommended as a car for long distance riding. I use a safe tire, the Uniroyal Tiger Paw Tires, whilch gives a smoother, safer ride also in Rain and Snow. I keep thinking though that if the dealer cut the Rotors at 29,000 miles…why are the Rotors thinner – I just replaced the pads as I was thinking I replaced the front brakes sooner than normal on my own volition – and thinking I'd replace the Rotors the next time I replace the brakes. I had the Tiger Paw Tires on 3 previous cars with the tires lasting longer than any other tires that I used since the late 1960's, and bought my granddaugther the same tires for her 2002 Saturn – and again, the tires are the safest I've ever used as a replacement. I did notice though for the first time after a year using the Tiger Paw Tires that the wear on the front tire edge was uneven wear which was unusual compared to wear on the other cars. The shop that did the alignment when the tires were new said struts after the warehouse store said was alighment issue (and they did not rotate that day). My mechanic know for 44 years said was a balancing issue, and advised to go back to the warehouse store to rotate and balance – which I did although probably best to have good tires on the front. But I never had problems before with the Tiger Paw Tires even afer years of use of the same tires on two Buick LeSabres and a new Mercury Gran Marquis. Not sure if GM is covering up something about brakes/front end?
I'm not sure where I'm posting to, but I have a 2006 HHR that I bought in Nov. of 2005. Each time I had a problem with it I went online and found others had the same problems and answers how to repair. I had problems with rotors and never had any trouble with rotors on any car that I've owned. I took it to the dealer and they only turned them and charged me. I had to replace rotors and replaced brakes at the same time. Next the traction control light kept coming on and then the gears shifted hard, looked online and found it to be a problem with others with the intake valve and exhaust valve and it gave the part #'s to order parts. Instructions were online how to replace them and when we removed them the little holes were clogged from where the engine was bored out at factory and the particles were not cleaned out. We replaced with new ones but probably could have cleaned the ones that were in it. We installed a new gearshifter because we couldn't get the key out and had to look online and find out about the plug under the steering wheel. Kept hearing a noise when I was accelerating and found out it was cracks in the according shaped part that goes into the motor from the catalytic converter. This had a longer warranty but by the time we found out what it was that millage had passed. Now it sounds like the bottom is going to fall off and I was goggling when I came across this blog but it seems most are old. There are to many of the same problems that there shouldn't have a recall. I just wonder what will break next with all biogs with door handles and radios and ect.
I have a 2006 HHR that I'm having a problem with the Traction Control and the Car with a lock pops up on the screen. With the gears shifting really hard and the car keeps jerking. It almost seems like the car is going to seize and die. Is this what you experienced? Do you know what you did to fix the problem?
I recently have been having problems with my 08 HHR. I've owned it for a little over 2 years and it has about 83K miles on it. Three weeks ago I was driving home from a camping trip with my family when we heard something sound like it fell off the car. I was on the thruway so I got off at the nearest exit and as soon as I hit the brakes there was a grinding noise. I wasn't too far from home and finally made it after fearing the tire would fall off. My mechanic looked at it and found that the bolt on the caliper backed out! Yesterday I was driving in heavy traffic and when I went to get off the exit and push the brake, my tire locked up and luckily my car was able to skid to the side of the road before completely stopping! My 8 year old was in the car, not to mention I'm pregnant. Had my car not skid the literally 15 feet to the side of the road ot could've been fatal! I think my guardian Angel was with me yesterday. Anyway, my fiance gotout and looked at the tire ( opposite front from the pprevious incident) and found THAT bolt had backed out like the other and the caliper was actually in my wheel well which is why my tire locked up on me! I'm wondering is there is something wrong with these parts that they keep backing out!
I have a 2010 chevrolet hhr and when going down the road the car pushes the brakes by itself pulling your car across 3 lanes of highway and there is nothing you can do to get it to stop unit it stops itself. I have had it to the dealer and they reset the computer system. They can not guarantee that it will not do it again. This is during the summer. I want rid of this car. If in the winter this happens I do not think I will be able to control the car in snow and where I am located all winter is snow and I have to drive 30 miles to work and back. It is very scary and there is nothing that can be done.
I have an 08 hhr and I noticed that only in the summer time and when I don't drive it for a few days my car just dies on me it is very scary it doesn't sputter or anything. I'll start the car pull out of my driveway stop to cross on coming traffic and when I press the gas to go the only reason I even know the car is off is because it's not going anywhere all the gauges are fine and it looks as if it never even shut off while the whole time my car is rolling into traffic so I have to wait for the car to stop and then it starts right up again. Oh and the abs just shuts off on me while I'm driving down the road for no reason at all when I come to a light and press the breaks it skips so I have to come to a complete stop and turn off the car and turn it back on I have almost rear-ended 5 or more people due to this. I am very scared to drive this car especially with my kids and I can't afford to trade it in and get a new one. And all the dealerships are telling me that it will cost me 100 bucks just for them to check it out but since I have no check lights on in my car they won't be able to find the problem. So I'll be out 100 bucks.
I purchased my 2006 HHR back in 2011. I have had problems with it since a month after having it. First the passenger window would go up/down when it wanted to, then the sunroof wouldn't close. A month after that it stalled on me in the middle of traffic on the interstate. I brought the car back to the dealer and they swore up and down nothing was wrong with it. Next, the key got stuck in the engine and I had to pay $400 to fix that because everything had died by the next day. Then the radio would be on some random station that wasn't even programmed before the key would even be in the ignition. The latest to happen was the cheap inside door handle broke which has caused me tendonitis in the elbow from having to roll my window down, open the door from the outside and then roll the window back up. Now my brakes are bad and I have to replace those too. I will NEVER EVER buy a chevrolet/GM again!

just 1 qustion for all the sejuani fans:
what does sejuani have that a leona with rylai's doesnt?
sejuani has slows, 1 charge and a long cd ult
leona has 1 melee stun on a short cd, 1 dash stun on a short cd and 1 aoe slow/stun ult thats on half the cd of sej's ult
sejuani has a bit of dmg but not enough to kill anyone
leona has a bit of dmg but her passive helps everyone do dmg
sejuani has no defensive steroids
leona has a MR/armor steroid
theres no reason, in my opinion, to pick sej over leona at all.

Tired of boring cards? Use paper crafting techniques to construct a Folded Greeting Card from Einat Kessler. This craft is intricate but suitable for beginners.
- Double-sided cardstock
- Embellishments
- Cut a double sided cardstock 12" by 5.5".
- Make 4 folds at 2", 4", 8", 10"
- Turn the cardstock and make 2 cuts at 1.5" and 4". Cut only from the first fold to the last fold.
- Fold the card, starting from the left: first fold – mountain (out), second fold – valley (in), then mountain again and end with a valley fold.
- Change two of the folds: the inner second fold turns out and the third fold turns in.
- Now you have the basic card and you need to embellish it. Cut 2 sets of squares: The first set 1/4 of an inch smaller than each section (orange on my card). That would be the bottom layer. On top of it the second set of squares will be 1/2 of an inch smaller (stripes, yellow and green on my card).
- Add embellishments and sentiment.
- My card is in Hebrew and opens from right to left, as seen in the photo. the instructions are for a card that opens from left to right. if you want the Hebrew version, change the order of the folds and start with a valley fold. change the inner folds accordingly.

The Sysadmin's Daily Grind: NicTool
Name Away!
For the longest time, Charly used vi to edit his nameserver's zone data, which isn't too elegant because a mere fat-finger will get you into DNS trouble. Fortunately, NicTool will help ease the pain – even in the midst of a move big enough to kick up a dust storm.
I wish the professional world could see the conditions under which these words are being written – our IT center is currently moving. My colleagues haven't been rifling through file cabinets like this since the crowning of Charlemagne, and they've become instant archaeologists making some valuable finds. One colleague – let's call him Qumran – has unearthed a document in Schwabacher typeface on SAN/NAS. An IBM printer that, without any accessories, can cut through rock is fascinating a bunch of mainframers. Just an hour ago, I fooled around with one of young Alexander Graham Bell's early cable modems. Next door, the shy apprentice IT networkers are sharing a '93 Slackware – an excellent year.
In contrast, NicTool [1], a comprehensive DNS management system written almost entirely in Perl, has been around only since 2000. The client components run as CGI on an Apache host. The management system takes its work assignments in two ways. First, there's a Perl API that, for example, feeds into a provisioning system. An Internet service provider can then easily integrate NicTool into its business processes: When a customer asks for web space, a simple command in the API can serve it a domain name in DNS.
The second possibility is in the accompanying web interface. I can use the web interface to manage multiple nameservers with their relevant zones (Figure 1). NicTool does plausibility and syntax checks for all zone modifications, which is a good way to avoid typo frustration. A hierarchical rule structure allows me to manage nameservers or delegate zones to someone else.
Daily SOAP
The client components forward all change requests per SOAP to the NicTool server, which sits on another Apache V host and runs the database. The server supports a variety of database systems; in my case, it's MySQL.
In order for the nameserver to get all the changes, I must export the data from NicTool. The software only provides the Tinydns format. Because I'm using BIND, I have to make some adjustments during the export, and a look at the NicTool forum [2] proves that I'm not alone in this respect. The forum includes a few scripts that have been of some help, and it also provided a Perl script that, after installation, nicely populated my NicTool database via a zone transfer – to my great relief. I was spared the chaos of yet another move.

PRWeek to Blog Contestants: Chillax!
According to an email to the semi-quarterfinalists of PRWeek's Blog Competition leaked to PRNewser, Editor-in-Chief Keith O'Brien wants all involved to chill out: "PR people on the Internets have expressed concern about this completely fun competition–that people are spending way too much energy demanding every man, woman, and child vote for their blog."
The remaining eight are:
The email reminds those involved they do not get to hail themselves as Best PR Blog, and that he will not allow it. Hmm. Knock knock, Pandora's Box. As we said before, it's all fun and games till someone looses a head.
O'Brien's full email available after the jump:
Hello — if I am correct, you are all still in the competition. Congratulations. Now–you are a mix of large and small agency professionals; that's great.
However, PR people on the Internets have expressed concern about this completely fun competition–that people are spending way too much energy demanding every man, woman, and child vote for their blog. The point of this competition was for you to let your readers know through your blog, that you were in the competition, and perhaps a Twitter feed post. But for people who cared about blogs to think about the two, and vote for which one they enjoy more. And then maybe you send out a reminder towards the end for those who haven't voted.
Can we sort of agree that for the rest of the competition, we are not going to go crazy on the self-promotion? Because we're hearing a lot of chatter out there about the competition–some of it bad–that it has gone away from its original intention.
If I may, I would strongly urge people against e-mailing all of their contacts and/or (if in a large agency) sending out an internal e-mail about the vote. That is not the idea of the competition. Can we all agree that we will make promotion minimal, and just enjoy the ride?
As a side note, I just want to point out that the winner of the competition gets a get a post in our tenth anniversary issue. He or she (or they) do not get to proclaim that they are the best PR blog, as determined by PRWeek. Given the loose nature of the competition–and the stumping that people have done–I will not allow such a designation.
Let me know if you have any questions. Have a great weekend. Voting begins again at 5:30 Sunday.

Stepping Out of My Comfort Zone While Traveling
June 30th, 2014
Apr 30, 2012 Lainie Liberti In the Moment, Unschooling, Videos, World Schooling 4
There are plenty–it's a skill that encourages and focuses on developing verbal interaction. That means knowing what to say, how to say it, and when. But mostly, it's about agreeing with whatever is in the flow.
And when Miro and I read that there was an Improv class for English speakers, here in Lima, we immediately signed up. Besides being a fun activity we can share with each other, it's occurred to us, as travelers, improv offers some unique benefits.
Traveling is inevitably a social activity. If you can speak the language in whatever country you're visiting, then you can practice the lessons to be learned in an comedy class. But if you don't speak the language, it's about being open to the situation and communicating via all the tools you have at your disposal, ranging from pantomiming to your overall attitude. Yes, your attitude or outlook is actually a tool!! As a traveler, you need to be able to talk to people. You are not just visiting random destinations, you're visiting the homes, workplaces filled with personal histories of real people. Understanding how to interact in a positive way and thinking on your feet, increases your chances of having a meaningful cultural exchange.
Many times, what commonly limits our social interaction is awkwardness that's caused by little or no confidence. Naturally, this poses a problem for the traveler. How are you to ask for directions, or any sort of information, if you fear talking to strangers? This is one of the first things addressed in improv. It's less about dialogue or the actual words spoken, it's about an equal exchange of positive energy. I have positive energy and I'm passing that along to the person I'm with, we've created a meaningful exchange. Simple.
By putting yourself into a situation, sometimes out of your comfort zone, and practicing the "yes, and…" techniques learned in improv classes, you're practicing the fundamental skills of social interaction–skills you can then apply in real-world settings, whether during your travels or just in everyday life.
Let's not forget, improv also teaches spur-of-the-moment interaction, as well as the creation and development of new ideas. We've learned through many improv exercises to let go, go with the flow and not to be so contrived with our preconceived ideas.
When you learn to be comfortable with pushing a scene as far as you can take it, the most successful interactions are those when you make your partner shine. Give them more information to work with and support and hand off positive energy, you'll be surprised with the outcome! We are and we're loving it!
So, with improv helping you build self-confidence and churn out good ideas faster, I can see nothing but the utmost benefits to would-be the traveler. How about using these newly found skills when trying to decipher bad directions, dealing with a language barrier, or worse, trying to safely talk your way out of a potentially hostile situation. Perhaps one of best things that a traveler can learn form improv is effective teamwork. In improv, you'll get used to being around a variety of different personality types in a variety of different situations. And conflict, whoa! Improv gives you the tools to deal with any situation in a positive way. So, find out for yourself and have some fun in the making. If you are a traveler, experience the benefits for yourself, and sign up for a class today!
If you are traveling to Lima and would like take the class we are taking or learn more information from our wonderful teacher, visit this site or send us an email and we'll put you personally in touch with Lucho.
Lainie and her son Miro are living a location independent lifestyle, slow traveling around the globe and living in the present moment. Lainie writes about staying inspired, participating as a global citizen, volunteering, unschooling & natural learning. Lainie and Miro are both following their interests on the road, as the planet has been transformed into their classroom. Often you will hear Lainie say "we are blessed to be accidental world schoolers" and has become and an advocate for "life learning" at any age. Lainie & Miro have taken this philosophy to heart and are producing a series of family & teen oriented retreats in called Project World School.
This is very cool! As we've discussed privately, I did improv for 8 years and even ran my own improv company for a while, teaching others how to do musical improv (my specialty). Improv has so much to teach anyone– whether travelers or otherwise– about how to live a better life, I cannot recommend taking classes enough. If you're curious, here's a sample of the improvised musical show we did last year: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ZC5wc2beTQ&feature=relmfu.

Instead of stumbling into bed I stumbled across this video clip of Project Hollywood, where I used to live. He points out my room (for those of you who don't know, I'm "Herbal") in the video so you can see where I used to live and where a lot of my adventures took place.
I get sentimental seeing pictures of the house, and even more so seeing the video. Despite all the drama, life was really good there and I feel so lucky to be in it. In case you can't tell, Style (Neil Strauss) is being interviewed, and he's the one who wrote The Game.
They are trying, at least: http://www.projectibiza.com/
Who knows in the future? As men get more and more effeminate, perhaps they will need to PUA community more? Maybe to slap them manliness back into them.
I looked at the route that Google Maps gave me to drive my RV back to Austin. The route went right past Mandeville, Louisiana. That's where Katya lives.
I hadn't seen her in years. We broke up four years ago, and I only saw her once since then, three years ago. She randomly showed up with her fiancee and took all of the big stuff she'd left at my house. Her fiancee apologized as we carried her bed frame that I'd been sleeping on for a year to his car.
It's 4:30am and I've been crying about Green Days American Idiot Broadway show because I just watched Broadway Idiot on Netflix. When the touring show came to Edmonton me and my mum drove up to see it and I cried so much during the show. Then we were sitting in the car waiting to leave and the cast was out by the buses and I really wanted to go get a picture but I started to have a panic attack and I really regret being a hermit now.
I'm so ridiculous, who cries at Green Day? Apparently the same girl who cries at the Beatles Love Cirque Du Solei show.
American Idiot was just such a good show and I love Green Day so much and because of where I live I might never get to see them live and that really upsets me. So American Idiot is sorta the closest thing to seeing them live (?) I guess...
ALSO, there was this one really really cute ensemble member and I never figured out who it was so I just spent the last half hour finding out who he was. I'm a stalker.
This is some weird shit to share on the internet...

Caldwell Matrix Shooting Rest combines affordability and rock solid stability in a shooting rest. The Caldwell Shooting Accessory has an innovative, ultra rigid U-channel frame for quickly adjusting in length for the perfect fit with any gun while remaining perfectly stable. The 2 piece sliding frame incorporates an open central channel with plenty of clearance for hi-capacity detachable magazines (AR style guns) as well as lever action guns. A convenient storage area incorporated into the front of the base of the shooting accessory features a removable lid that adds additional clearance when detached but also doubles as a rubberized rear support surface for firing handguns when left in place. Another key feature that Caldwell provides for the Matrix Shooting Rest is the all new innovative front elevation system. A spring loaded tension mechanism and height adjustment knob allow for fast, one handed elevation adjustments, keeping the front cradle wobble free throughout the entire vertical range. An overmolded front and rear supports protect the gun's finish but are firm enough to prevent any give or play. Shooters will also enjoy the versatility of converting the Caldwell Matrix 101600 into a compact front rest by removing the rear portion of the frame. Whether used as a front rest or as a full length rest the Caldwell Matrix provides stability that will deliver maximum accuracy potential.
Caldwell Matrix Shooting Rest 101-600 and other products by Caldwell belong to Battenfeld Technologies family. All the brands by Battenfeld - Caldwell, Frankford Arsenal, Miles Gilbert, PAST, Tipton, Wheeler - are on sale and available from our on-line store.

This is the second in a two-part industry trends and perspective looking at learning from cloud incidents, view part I here.
There is good information, insight and lessons to be learned from cloud outages and other incidents.
Sorry cynics no that does not mean an end to clouds, as they are here to stay. However when and where to use them, along with what best practices, how to be ready and configure for use are part of the discussion. This means that clouds may not be for everybody or all applications, or at least today. For those who are into clouds for the long haul (either all in or partially) including current skeptics, there are many lessons to be learned and leveraged.
In order to gain confidence in clouds, some questions that I routinely am asked include are clouds more or less reliable than what you are doing? Depends on what you are doing, and how you will be using the cloud services. If you are applying HA and other BC or resiliency best practices, you may be able to configure and isolate from the more common situations. On the other hand, if you are simply using the cloud services as a low-cost alternative selecting the lowest price and service class (SLAs and SLOs), you might get what you paid for. Thus, clouds are a shared responsibility, the service provider has things they need to do, and the user or person designing how the service will be used have some decisions making responsibilities.
Keep in mind that high availability (HA), resiliency, business continuance (BC) along with disaster recovery (DR) are the sum of several pieces. This includes people, best practices, processes including change management, good design eliminating points of failure and isolating or containing faults, along with how the components or technology used (e.g. hardware, software, networks, services, tools). Good technology used in goods ways can be part of a highly resilient flexible and scalable data infrastructure. Good technology used in the wrong ways may not leverage the solutions to their full potential.
While it is easy to focus on the physical technologies (servers, storage, networks, software, facilities), many of the cloud services incidents or outages have involved people, process and best practices so those need to be considered.
These incidents or outages bring awareness, a level set, that this is still early in the cloud evolution lifecycle and to move beyond seeing clouds as just a way to cut cost, and seeing the importance and value HA, resiliency, BC and DR. This means learning from mistakes, taking action to correct or fix errors, find and cut points of failure are part of a technology maturing or the use of it. These all tie into having services with service level agreements (SLAs) with service level objectives (SLOs) for availability, reliability, durability, accessibility, performance and security among others to protect against mayhem or other things that can and do happen.
Images licensed for use by StorageIO via Atomazul / Shutterstock.com
The reason I mentioned earlier that AWS had another incident is that like their peers or competitors who have incidents in the past, AWS appears to be going through some growing, maturing, evolution related activities. During summer 2012 there was an AWS incident that affected Netflix (read more here: AWS and the Netflix Fix?). It should also be noted that there were earlier AWS outages where Netflix (read about Netflix architecture here) leveraged resiliency designs to try and prevent mayhem when others were impacted.
Is AWS a lightning rod for things to happen, a point of attraction for Mayhem and others?
Granted given their size, scope of services and how being used on a global basis AWS is blazing new territory and experiences, similar to what other information services delivery platforms did in the past. What I mean is that while taken for granted today, open systems Unix, Linux, Windows-based along with client-server, midrange or distributed systems, not to mention mainframe hardware, software, networks, processes, procedures, best practices all went through growing pains.
There are a couple of interesting threads going on over in various LinkedIn Groups based on some reporters stories including on speculation of what happened, followed with some good discussions of what actually happened and how to prevent recurrence of them in the future.
Over in the Cloud Computing, SaaS & Virtualization group forum, this thread is based on a Forbes article (Amazon AWS Takes Down Netflix on Christmas Eve) and involves conversations about SLAs, best practices, HA and related themes. Have a look at the story the thread is based on and some of the assertions being made, and ensuing discussions.
Also over at LinkedIn, in the Cloud Hosting & Service Providers group forum, this thread is based on a story titled Why Netflix' Christmas Eve Crash Was Its Own Fault with a good discussion on clouds, HA, BC, DR, resiliency and related themes.
Over at the Virtualization Practice, there is a piece titled Is Amazon Ruining Public Cloud Computing? with comments from me and Adrian Cockcroft (@Adrianco) a Netflix Architect (you can read his blog here). You can also view some presentations about the Netflix architecture here.
What this all means
Saying you get what you pay for would be too easy and perhaps not applicable.
There are good services free, or low-cost, just like good free content and other things, however vice versa, just because something costs more, does not make it better.
Otoh, there are services that charge a premium however may have no better if not worse reliability, same with content for fee or perceived value that is no better than what you get free.

Some closing thoughts:
- Clouds are real and can be used safely; however, they are a shared responsibility.
- Only you can prevent cloud data loss, which means do your homework, be ready.
- If something can go wrong, it probably will, particularly if humans are involved.
- Prepare for the unexpected and clarify assumptions vs. realities of service capabilities.
- Leverage fault isolation and containment to prevent rolling or spreading disasters.
- Look at cloud services beyond lowest cost or for cost avoidance.
- What is your organizations culture for learning from mistakes vs. fixing blame?
- Ask yourself if you, your applications and organization are ready for clouds.
- Ask your cloud providers if they are ready for you and your applications.
- Identify what your cloud concerns are to decide what can be done about them.
- Do a proof of concept to decide what types of clouds and services are best for you.
Do not be scared of clouds, however be ready, do your homework, learn from the mistakes, misfortune and errors of others. Establish and leverage known best practices while creating new ones. Look at the past for guidance to the future, however avoid clinging to, and bringing the baggage of the past to the future. Use new technologies, tools and techniques in new ways vs. using them in old ways.
Ok, nuff said.

Nigeria has the largest economy in Africa, at more than US$500 billion, and ranks 23rd in the world. A recent re-evaluation of Nigeria's true economic size doubled the previous estimate, and brought it well ahead of South Africa, which is a member (unlike Nigeria) of the G20 club for political as well as economic reasons. Nigeria's economy can be said to be quite diverse from one point of view, but heavily dependent on oil and gas at the same time. Oil and natural gas account for about 15% of Nigera's overall economy, but traditionally represent more than 90% of the country's exports and as...

Don't worry, we couldn't leave pie off the list entirely — you'll find some of those must-try recipes as well.
Cooking with apple cider is an easy way to pull in some seasonal spice.

Rabat - England's Nick Dougherty held a one-shot lead after the first round of the Trophee Hassan II in Morocco on Thursday.
The 27-year-old Liverpudlian shot a 66 on the par 73 Red course, helped by an eagle and five birdies.
He leads Ireland's Peter Lawrie, Scot Stephen Gallacher, Italian Francesco Molinari, India's S S P Chowrasia, Argentina's Ricardo Gonzalez and Paraguay's Fabrizio Zanotti.
All of that group bar Chowrasia were playing on the much shorter par 72 Blue course.
Dubliner Paul McGinley, playing his first tournament since a sixth knee operation in November, managed only a three over 76 on the Red.
"I'm lacking that competitive edge," said the man who holed Europe's winning put at The Ryder Cup in 2002.
"The knee is absolutely fine. I didn't feel it at all, and although it's a bit swollen now, it's not giving me any pain. My round got away from me at the eighth and ninth when I missed a two foot putt and then hit one in the water.
"I played much better than my score suggests but my putting was terrible."
Dougherty, a three-time European Tour winner, was pleased to be back in the limelight after dropping from a high of 46th in the world just over two years ago to 120th in the official rankings.
"I've been struggling so much I'm just trying to build some confidence and hit as many good shots as I can," he said.
"Thomas Bjorn gave me quite a bit of help yesterday (Wednesday) on the range, which meant the world to me obviously, but it's a work in progress.
"Anything under par I would have been happy with, so I was delighted with that. I think seven under is a really, really good score round there.
"I putted fabulously and I'm delighted with my short game in general, but it's the long game that's concerning me. I've been battling with that for a long time now."
