Your Opinion: Best Place to Live When You Have MS
I had a bad cold when I went into my neuro f/u yesterday and he was talking about how the Rebif meds are actually lowering my immune system's ability to fight off colds, etc.
He mentioned it's probably better for me since I live in this AZ climate because people aren't sick as much as opposed to the colder climates where people are always getting sick in the cold, etc. He also said right now I'm at the advantage because I'm younger (33) and my body is able to fight things off easier in general.
Anyway, I wondered what your opinions are on the best areas of the U.S. to live if you have MS? I don't have a lot of MS issues right now and the super hot, dry summers here don't seem to bother me or exacerbate things that I can tell. Maybe I get worn out/tired more easily, but that's it. I feel like the humidity in other areas would be really bad.
We are an Army family so we may not be in AZ much longer, but we could have somewhat of a choice as to where we go next.
Thanks for your input! I know there are probably threads on this topic, but I couldn't find them in my quick search.
You're in it, as far as I'm concerned!
I live on the East coast (Philadephia, PA), so we get all 4 seasons. Winters here can be rough, and the humidity in the summer is downright oppressive. Spring and Fall are not long enough to give you a chance to enjoy the weather at all.
Arizona sounds good to me!

I live in the mountains in Colorado...and it is the best place for me to live.
I grew up in Chicago and the hot humid summers and brutally cold winter were hard to take.
I don't think I could take the hot AZ summers. The summers here are nice, rarely even hits 90' and the winters are not bad. Lots of snow, but lots of sunshine too.
Good luck to you wherever you go!Opiegirl, Dx 1991

San Antonio - where humidity was invented; Houston - where it was perfected!
I'm farther south than you & live 20 miles from the Gulf of Mexico, a huge body of water that likes to live in our air ("air you can wear") from April/May to November/December. Humidity of 90%+ is a common, daily event.
(In the North, know how your glasses fog over when you walk outside in the winter? Well, mine fog over in the summer!)
SO ... if you are heat intolerant, don't come here. Well, not until December - we have GREAT winters!
As for a "perfect" climate, maybe the VA/WV/NC/SC/KY/TN area? They are all far enough south to have more mild winters & if you live inland, the coastal humidity shouldn't get too high IMO. Also decreases hurricane concerns!
OK might be a good place too. They have milder winters, not horrible summers & as long as you have a basement to hide from tornadoes , I think the climate might be good.
CO, KS & MO would have rougher winters but milder summers than AZ. No hurricane threats & fewer tornadoes than OK. They might be good options also.Dx 10/2008

They say a dry climate is the best. I live in New England and the saying around here is "if you don't like the weather wait a minute and it will change," which isn't good if you have MS or are in limbo like myself.
Surprised no one has said this yet.
San Diego, CA for sure. Best weather in the US for MS.
Not too hot in Summer...not too cold in Winter. Hovers between 60 - 80 degrees the entire year. No humidity.
Wherever you go, check your transportation!
I have friends in Houston who are trying to get me to move there. If you don't drive you are housebound for the most part. I visited Thanksgiving week and the weather couldn't have been better(75-78 degrees).
Our transportation is such that I will tolerate the winters to be able to go out regardless of weather.

I have looked at a number of places. Recommended by Tom at NASA is Cloudcroft, NM. It has very nice Summer and not bad Winter, unfortunately it is a very small place. Beautiful mountains, but the 'Big City' is Alamogordo, NM. Very Hot Summers.
I live in Pittsburgh, PA which has always been very good. Fairly easy Winter and not too hot in the Summer. Unfortunately it has been getting much hotter in the Summer, usually only 3-5 days above 90, now 8-10.
Burlington, VT looks very good for the Summer, don't like the Winter though. Any Coastal areas are very humid and usually quite hot. South Florida is great in the Winter.
So, it looks like VT in the Summer and south FL in the winter. Guess I will become a 'Snow Bird'.Bill

I grew up in a military family, and then as an adult I kept up the habit of moving around, so I have lived in Manila, Philippines; Honolulu, San Francisco, western Washington State, Denver, northern Arizona, New Orleans, northeast Florida, Virginia, West Virginia, North Carolina (in the mountains), Pittsburgh, New York City, upstate New York; Paris, France; Frankfurt, Germany; and Kabul, Afghanistan.
After all those, I have to say that Western Washington is the best - almost always between 40 and 75 degrees, not much snow and cold, but also not very hot in the summer.
However, it is cloudy all the time in western Washington, and in the winter, the days are so short that it is dark all the time - sun comes up after 8 am, and sets a little after 4 pm, and in between it is cloudy all day, and often raining or snowing lightly. Great for MS, but my mood couldn't stand the dark.
So now I am on a "temporary" job in Northern Arizona; I have been here a year, and my husband is trying to get a job here too so we can stay here. At 7,000 feet, we have 4 seasons and lots of snow - but the snow melts quickly because it is sunny most days. Yet also because of the altitude, it doesn't get very hot in the summer. I think it is too hot "down in the valley" in Phoenix.
Those tropical places are way too difficult for me in the summer, too hot and humid: Manila, New Orleans, and Florida. Hawaii is OK as far as temperature and humidity, but it is just too far from family and friends on the mainland.
San Francisco has a great climate and great medical care, but it is too big and crowded, and awfully expensive as a place to live. New York, Paris and Frankfurt - all expensive, big and crowded, and too hot in the summer, cold in the winter.
Denver and Kabul - too cold in the winter, and rather warm (not impossible though) in the summer. Plus Kabul is now a combat zone.
VA, WV, and NC - tolerable summers if you are in the mountains, winters can be a little rough. Pittsburgh is kind of like that too, but I have to add, it is the nicest city I have ever lived in! But a lot of cloudy days, like western Washington.
So that's my global report - western Washington if you can take the dark, northern Arizona if you can handle a lot more snow (but it melts quick) and need lots more sunshine.

EASTERN Washington and Northern Idaho and Western Montana are as close to heaven as you can get. Unlike Western Washington it is high desert here. Warm in the summer...cold in the winter but dry. Lovely long indian summers (fall) and cool clear crisp springtimes.
Deer, bear, moose, fishing, hunting and every outdoor sport you can imagine. Property values are still reasonable for real people.
There are places here where a person can still ride a horse for days and see no one.
My real idea of heaven.
Maybe you should all just stay away!!!!!

north olympic peninsula, wa
Very temperate... only about 5-7 days per year above 80 degrees. summertimes mostly in the low 70s. A bit drizzly from time to time and we do get the big winds from Pacific storms, but the lack of heat in summer is wonderful... people around here complain bitterly on the very few 85 degree days we get.
love all 4 seasons (even if i complain of the snow), so nw pa is perfect for me! i also don`t like city life, but my family owns a farm. the snow does suck as far as traveling in my wc, but i`ll put up with it as a tradeoff for our one week of spring, summer and fall good luck.

Surprised anybody could walk after that one ... it was high energy all the way!
In my heart I wanted Butler to win, but in my brackets I had Marquette moving on...

It was actually a nice play- I hate when the ball goes to the guy who everyone in the building is expecting. I'd rather get an open look with a lesser player than a double teamed heave from the star.
You mean there was an actual close game today? All the blowouts today had me watching other things.
I really wanted Butler to win... I can't stand Marquette...I don't know if it's because they're over-rated, or that I don't like Buzz, or the fact that Davidson had them beat and blew it but something about them rubs me the wrong way...

Senate OKs $12 million bond measure for Long Beach
(Page 2 of 3)
In March, the city submitted a home rule request to the State Legislature to issue the bonds. Sandy caused an estimated $200 million in damage in Long Beach, and though the Federal Emergency Management Agency is expected to cover 90 percent of storm-related costs, the rest is usually split between the state and the municipality, potentially leaving Long Beach with a $10 million tab.
"Allowing the city to issue bonds would shift much of the burden off local taxpayers," Assemblyman Harvey Weisenberg, who sponsored the Assembly bill, said in a statement.
City officials have pushed for the measure for more than a year, after uncovering what was initially a projected $10.25 million deficit for fiscal 2011-12. In May 2012, the City Council voted to submit a home rule request to the State Legislature seeking approval to issue the bonds.
A 10-year payment plan, which included a 7.9 percent tax increase, was incorporated into the budget last year, after city officials said they were given assurances that the legislation would pass. It passed in the Assembly, but Skelos and others in the Republican-led Senate opted not to approve requests for such borrowing, saying that municipalities should focus more on cutting costs.
City officials were forced to amend the budget shortly afterward, adding a 6.6 percent deficit-reduction surcharge for three years and bringing the total tax increase last year to 14.5 percent. After Sandy, however, Skelos and his colleagues agreed to revisit the legislation.
The bill's passage means that the city can now spread its payments out over 10 years.
"This is good news for Long Beach taxpayers as we all recover from Superstorm Sandy," City Council President Scott Mandel said in a statement. "This will provide relief both for our fiscal and physical recovery. We thank Senator Skelos and Assemblyman Weisenberg for their leadership, and we look forward to working with the governor's office and the state comptroller's office as this process moves forward."
But Councilman John McLaughlin said that the legislation is a year late, and added at Tuesday's council meeting, "It would be like saying, I have a 2010 Volvo and I'm just about to pay it off."

It is not a "policy question", but an integrity question. Integrity calls for reduction of the surcharge to give very-needed relief to the residents of Long Beach.
Thursday, June 20, 2013 | Report this
But how do you determine who these much need people are? Is it income based? Do we carve out everyone in a coop or condo above second floor? Do we carve out everyone with flood insurance whose house was not deemed ICC?
You cant afford to waive everyone from the surcharge. What about folks in rare houses that were no impacted? What about folks who bought after Sandy?
Maybe it should be just folks who received the Max $31,900 from FEMA on their primary residence who have AGI under 100K. Also do we include landlords who dont live in Long Beach. What about commercial properties? Not all stores were equally impacted. Some such as a hardware or plumbing store actually made money off Sandy. Some had flood insurance some did not.
Also you are just kicking the can down the road by waiving surcharge. Long term Long Beach would better off doing a one time surcharge to raise the $12 million than issuing bonds. Bond yields have shot up last few days and taking long term bonds just sticks you folks with higher taxes for years to come. There is no easy solution.
Part of problem has nothing to do with Sandy, Long Beach did not prepare for a rainy day. Look at Atlantic Beach the 7-1-2013 tax came out recently and because of Sandy taxes are only going up 1%. Why, if you read their letter on Sandy related taxes, Fema covered 90%. AB has a surplus budget of which will pay for remaining 9% of damage and residents will take a hit in a lump sum due July 1% to pay remaining 1%. Yep they go less damage. But being in good financial shape with adequate reserve funds would have spared Long Beach a lot of pain in Sandy.

Sandeep -- the city council said the surcharge would be reduced or eliminated if the financining went through. it went through. that is my point, only. by the way a new bond issue is coming to pay the police.

He has been hesitant to ride because he says he has lost his balance. I think it may be that he feels a bike won't support him. But if I knew some tips for getting him going again and a few reasonably priced bikes that would be what he needs I think I could help to facilitate this whole thing. I've seen Trek and Cannondale recommended but for 2/3 the weight. Oh, I live in San Marcos Texas and it is super hilly so something that has low gears would be great.

Spartacus is coming to the app world soon, but he's trailing Tony Soprano.
Starz CEO Chris Albrecht said yesterday that a new Starz app offering movies and original shows, such as "Spartacus: Blood and Sand," will be available for mobile devices starting in 2012.
Liberty Media-backed Starz will have to play catch up with Time Warner's HBO Go app, which has been downloaded five million times since its launch in May 2011, offering shows like "The Sopranos."
Like HBO Go, Starz's app will require "authentication" and will only be available to Starz's subscribers through their cable or satellite-TV company.
While rival streaming service Netflix is embedded in scores of devices and can be accessed via iPad and Android apps, premium services such as HBO and Starz are still negotiating with pay-TV providers to expand their online and mobile distribution.
HBO is still waiting on deals with Time Warner Cable and Cablevision while claiming 80 percent coverage in the US. Starz Online is available through Comcast, Dish and AT&T.
CBS-owned Showtime meanwhile only has deals with two distributors, Comcast and AT&T, for its online service Showtime Anywhere.

An empty chair marked the place where Helen WOLODCHENKO would have sat at a recent gathering to remember the lives lost during the Ukrainian genocide of 1932-33.
She died in her sleep that week, on May 19, and is sadly missed by London's Ukrainian community.
WOLODCHENKO was 87.
"We called her the matriarch. When we lost her, when we buried her, we lost a pillar of our church," said Vivian KOSCHMANN, a close family friend whom WOLODCHENKO called "third daughter."
Known for her involvement in the community and the church, WOLODCHENKO was also a legendary fundraiser.
"Her walls were adorned with medals and plaques from city hall, all tributes paid to her over the years by city hall and the Ukrainian community," said her daughter, Lena WOLODCHENKO.
She was the longest-serving president of the women's club at Holy Trinity Ukrainian Orthodox Church, a position she held for 17 years.
Helen WOLODCHENKO also served as the cook at the Ukrainian club at 247 Adelaide St. S. for many years.
"She did a lot for the community," said KOSCHMANN.
WOLODCHENKO was a survivor of the Ukrainian genocide of 1932, a famine imposed by Joseph Stalin's regime.
She came to Canada in 1949 and moved to London a year later when she heard about the city's small Ukrainian community.
"She was passionate about her homeland and she wanted all her traditions carried on here and she worked hard to do it," KOSCHMANN said.
WOLODCHENKO was even known to host church services in the basement of her Clarence Street home, until Holy Trinity was built.
"She was just passionate about her church and her native land," KOSCHMANN said.
"She'll be remembered for what she did. I don't think we'll ever forget her."
WOLODCHENKO is survived by a brother in the Ukraine and many cousins.
In Canada, she is survived by her three children, Lena WOLODCHENKO, Zena EDGAR and Bill WOLODCHENKO, two grand_sons, two great-grandchildren and countless Friends.

Beloved poet, prof, playwright 'an artistic giant'
James REANEY, 1926-2008
By Katherina DEHAAS and Patrick MALONEY, Sun Media, Thurs., June 12, James REANEY, a national literary icon who stayed close to his Southwestern Ontario roots during a celebrated, 50-year career as a playwright, poet and professor, has died.
The longtime Londoner died last night in London following a long illness. He was 81.
"It was a peaceful end to a great life," his son, Free Press journalist James REANEY, said. "We know that he will be remembered and his contributions to Canadian culture will be valued."
Born on a Stratford-area farm in 1926, REANEY was an acclaimed poet, playwright, author, opera librettist and University of Western Ontario English professor.
He won three Governor-General's Awards for poetry and drama, and a 1974 Chalmers Award for best Canadian play.
"He was so great," said Nancy POOLE, a former Museum London director who met REANEY at University of Western Ontario.
"He was a gentleman, an intellectual, an artistic giant in the Canadian scene."
REANEY won his first Governor-General's Award in 1949 at age 23 for a collection of poetry, The Red Heart.
In 1960, he began teaching at University of Western Ontario and started publishing Alphabet, a semi-annual periodical devoted "to the iconography of the imagination."
In 1966, he founded the Listener's Workshop and began working with child and adult actors in choral ensemble works. REANEY, whose play Colours in the Dark premiered in Stratford in 1967, received the Order of Canada in 1975.
His best known dramatic work may be a trilogy of plays about the 1880 massacre of the Donnelly family in Lucan.
He was 10 when his stepfather told him the stirring story, stoking in REANEY an interest that would lead him to write the three plays that not only dramatized the legend, but arguably also brought it into focus historically.
The trilogy is among a handful of Canadian works listed among the 1,000 most significant plays of all time by the Oxford Dictionary of Plays.
He was also an amateur painter and pianist whose works were exhibited in London and Toronto.
REANEY enjoyed such respect that even small details of his life inspired artisans, says Martha HENRY, former Grand Theatre artistic director.
HENRY, who acted in two REANEY plays, recalled a tour last summer of his boyhood home.
"It was amazing," she said. "We went up into the attic where he used to write. He's an icon. A complete original."
REANEY is survived by his wife, son and daughter, two granddaughters and two siblings.

Floyd Cramer (October 27, 1933 – December 31, 1997) was an American Hall of Fame pianist who was one of the architects of the "Nashville Sound." He popularized the 'slip note' piano style where one note slides effortlessly into the next. This was a major departure from the percussive piano style which was popular in the late 1950s. Born in Shreveport, Louisiana, Cramer grew up in the small town of Huttig, Arkansas, teaching himself to play the piano. After finishing high school, he returned to Shreveport, where he worked as a pianist for the Louisiana Hayride radio show.

Load Balancing with EIGRP
Hi all,
I seem to be confused about the above topic.
I know that EIGRP can load balance over four equal cost paths (bu default), and six paths (configured). Also, one can manipulate the metrics so that all routes can have equal paths.
BUT... the question is this: does the load balancing happen at Layer 2 or Layer 3? What is the difference between per-packet load balancing and per-destination load balancing?
How best can one implement an effective load balancing with EIGRP over two WAN links from a remote location to the central office.
Thanks for your contributions.

As far as EIGRP is concerned, the load balancing happens over L3. It does not concern itself with the layer aspects, other than the interface being up/up of course.
To load balance over two WAN links equally, you would have to have two links of the exact same bandwidth and delay (using default K values) to get the same metric and therfore two sucessors, by default. Offset lists and unequal cost load balancing are also possible to influence the amount of routes added to the routing table. These are CCNP topics.CCNP R&S, CCDP, CCNA DC

'EastEnders' is set for another murder hunt after Lucy Beale , played by Hetti Bywater, is killed at Easter.
Ian Beale's daughter's death will spark one of the soap's biggest 'whodunnits'.
The BBC's EastEnders blog says: "The huge storyline has been ingeniously plotted so that it isn't a typical whodunit, but rooted in truth - raw, emotional and gritty."
Hetti Bywater as Lucy Beale
Viewers will reportedly be left guessing who killed Lucy for the rest of the year and Ian will be left wondering how well he really knew his daughter.
Lucy, who has recently been trying to create her own Alan Sugar-type empire, will leave behind her twin Peter, and half-siblings Bobby and Cindy.
The character, currently played by 19-year-old Hetti but last played by Melissa Suffield, has been part of the show since her birth in 1993.
Hetti Bywater
The blog adds: "Lucy's death will mark the end of an era and the start of a dark new chapter for the Beale family."
Lucy's death has been plotted since the arrival of Executive Producer, Dominic Treadwell-Collins.
One Walford resident will hold the very dark secret about what really happened the night Lucy died.
Lucy was recently caught in bed with smooth-talking Danny Pennant (Gary Lucy) but she later found out he was up to no good.
Who do you think will kill Lucy? Let us know in the comments below.
In some of the most touching scenes to ever air on a soap, Ethel was euphoric when best friend Dot agreed to help her end her life, but we could see the sadness in the laundrette worker's eyes, as she contemplated a future without her pal.
In what is the gold standard of soap deaths (in our humble opinion) Madge's battle with cancer came to a tear-jerking end, as she called her adoptive sons Tad and Paul to her bedside to say goodbye. We couldn't even attempt to hide the tears in our eyes when her husband Harold finally realised she'd slipped away.
Jamie died in the arms of girlfriend Sonia after being hit by Martin's car. We were made even more emotional by the sight of Phil Mitchell crying.
Widow Jack's death also marked the return of his late with Vera, who came back as a ghost during his final moments for a reunion that still makes us cry to this day.
Daphne became the first regular character to die in 'Neighbours' after she was critically injured during a car crash on the way to her father's funeral. She managed to come around from her coma to say "I love you Clarkey" to husband Des, before passing away.
In another family-and-friends-around-the-bed death (they're the worst for our emotions), Alma bid farewell to ex-husband Mike who had acted as her rock during her battle with cancer.
Bobby's husband Greg is left with the agonising decision of turning off her life support after she was critically injured during a boating trip.
Walford bid farewell to a soap icon when Pat died in her bed surrounded by her family, having been reunited with estranged son David just in the nick of time.
Housewives across the nation were distraught when resident Aussie hottie Drew fell off a horse and left wife Libby to bring up their son Ben alone.
After a row with daughter-in-law Sonia on Christmas which saw her hit the Fowler matriarch, she died alone in the Square on Christmas Day, with only her faithful dog Betty by her side. After her body was discovered in the snow by friend Dot and son Martin, viewers were left wondering if Sonia had caused her demise.

Taken with a grain of salt and small amount of indifference, a study from data-driven review site Bundle that found that Mac users were cooler than PC users is kind of amusing. Their conclusion, based on an analysis of the spending habits of 700,000 PC and Mac buyers, is that Mac users were more "fashion-forward" and "style-conscious" than PC users.
Bundle examined which stores computer users tend to favor and found that PC users preferred store like Old Navy, Van Heusen outlet and Columbia Sportswear. Mac Users shopped at stores such as Jimmy Choo, Coach, and Last Call by Neiman Marcus. Bundle also found that 40 percent of Mac users that they examined earned more than $100,000, while only 29 percent of PC users earned as much. Mac users were also younger than most PC users.
Huffington Post has an Infographic here showing all the places PC and Mac owners prefer to shop.

Bake Sale at Mississippi Farmers Market
Volunteers will sell a delicious assortment of baked goods and have an exhibit about feral cats and TNR at the Mississippi Farmers Market in Jackson on Saturday, October 19, 2013, in honor of National Feral Cat Day. We will offer educational materials about low-cost spay/neuter and continue to encourage trap-neuter-return and compassionate treatment towards alley cats/ barn cats in the Jackson area and beyond. We will also have photos and profiles of adoptable kittens and cats. All donations and proceeds from the sale will go toward TNR and other vet and caretaking expenses.
Post-Event Summary
The bake sale to raise funds for and promote TNR was a great success! We had so many delicious baked goods provided by our supporters, and we raised $330, which can be used to spay/neuter 66 cats. We talked to people about cats in their neighborhoods and have some leads on areas of town that would benefit from TNR. I was very pleased to meet some new contacts who are involved in TNR and supporting feral cats, so the event was beneficial in strengthening our network. One of our first projects that we'll use the funds for is to TNR 7 cats living in a neighborhood where animal control has picked up feral cats in the past. A citizen there saw our promotion of the event on TV (we had a brief spot on the local news), and he called to get help with some cats he feeds. He wants them to stay there "in the 'hood" but doesn't have the means to get them to a vet. We hope that by showing him how we practice TNR, the word will spread in this part of town that calling animal control to pick up cats is not necessary, and that if they are spayed and neutered, the cats will be good neighbors and stay in manageable numbers.
Volunteers Needed
We'd be happy to have more volunteers to bake items or help at the sale.

redis-jobs ==========
creates jobs and puts it on a reliable redis queue for workers
Basic Usage
npm install redis-jobs
var redisjobs = require'redis-jobs';var queue = ; var job = queuecreateJobfoo: 'bar'; jobon'timeout' console.log'request timed out on message bus';; jobon'reply' console.logres;; jobstart; //On worker drone var worker = ; workeron'job' var res = jobdatafoo + 'baz'; jobreplyres;; workerlisten;
Jobs are put onto a Redis List and popped off the list using BRPOPLPUSH; When a worker uses reply the message is deleted from the temporary work queue and sent over a publish message to the job requester. This allows jobs to queue up but the responses will be streamed back immediatly. Later releases will include a queue monitor interface to handle automatic load scaling.

'The Walking Dead' declared TV's deadliest show
AMC's The Walking Dead is a show that deals with death in a big way. Hell, it's all right there in the title. So it stands to reason that it would turn out to have among the highest body counts on TV. And now, as a result of funeral resource guide Funeralwise.com, we can now confirm that it actually has THE highest. Period.
In the site's second annual "TV Body Count Study" examining the death toll on 40 TV series during the fall 2012 season, the hit zombie drama was king of the corpses, averaging a staggering 38 dead bodies per episode. Though 91% of these deaths were walkers, the series still topped steep competition from Cinemax's Strike Back (26 dead bodies per hour, which was good enough for second place) and NBC's breakout drama Revolution (with 11 per episode). Unlike the top show, Strike Back and Revolution's deaths were all human (animals are apparently not counted in the survey).
In addition to the body count, the study revealed that guns were the primary weapon of choice in the deaths, accounting for 44% of all fatalities, followed by knives, at 19%.
The study also broke down the victims by gender, with men representing 86% of the dearly departed, while women were most likely to be killed by means other than a gun.
Two last tidbits: first, the number of onscreen funerals increased this year from eight to 11 (I consider that a minor miracle, given the high volume of character deaths on major shows this year). Second, and perhaps most surprisingly, last year's top two deadliest series were nowhere to be found on this year's list: Starz's Spartacus and HBO's Game of Thrones.
The complete study is available here: Funeralwise.com

When we look out across today's enterprises, there's a clear gap between what our technology is capable of and the new ways of working that companies need to support. We're naturally and necessarily becoming more collaborative, more connected, and more mobile. The cloud helps us do all of these things. It has brought down the cost of infrastructure dramatically, it has sped up the delivery of applications, and it means we can implement solutions to problems far more quickly than ever before. But has the cloud made our businesses "smarter"? Are we making better decisions by learning more about the content and people we're working with? Are we connecting data and information across applications in such a way as to produce more value than the sum of our systems?
For the past couple of decades, our enterprise technology could neither handle the input of all of our information efficiently, nor could it produce any meaningful outputs beyond what we explicitly told it. Rather, our technology has slowed us down. In a Forrester survey just a couple of years ago, 91% of enterprise respondents said that the cost of ownership of their technology was too high, and 80% said they weren't getting the expected business value out of the solutions they've implemented. These problems are only becoming worse with 1.8 trillion gigabytes of information projected to be generated and stored this year alone. Enterprises not only need technology that will withstand this data explosion, but also will help them get more value out of the information being created, and the people creating it.
This is all changing today. We've learned from the social web how much more powerful we are when we're more connected. We can surface news relevant news much more quickly, and recognize important patterns amidst the noise with greater probability. Yet our enterprise applications have done little to encourage this same benefit in our corporations. We're going to try and change this. At Box, we'd like to introduce you to the Smarter Enterprise.
The Smarter Enterprise comes when people can make decisions faster, understand correlations more effortlessly, and get real leverage from their distributed networks. Some will assume this is the output of our move into a Social Enterprise – but I believe it is an even larger trend. Our software needs to become much more social and personalized, for ignoring the power and knowledge of the individuals in our organizations is anti-collaborative at best and value minimizing at worst. Our technology should encourage and enable more people-centric organizations and workflows, letting individuals share their most timely and relevant information, connect with the experts that surround them, and always have access to the best intelligence and information about their projects, competitors, and customers. But building the Smarter Enterprise goes even further: How does our technology promote better answers to our problems and create value around our information in entirely new ways?
This is what Box is building. We're creating technology to help you connect people to content, make better decisions, faster, and work more effectively with anyone. Over the next couple of quarters, you'll see a number of enhancements, large and small, that will positively impact how you work and collaborate on and off Box. The first of which are coming today.
The first cross-platform sync for the enterprise
The information that's being generated on PCs and Macs today is creating tremendous challenges for enterprises. Every single desktop and laptop becomes yet another disconnected data silo, posing a security risk but, even more importantly, a risk of not capturing the most value from your content and information. Enterprises have few solutions to help tackle these challenges. Microsoft has done little in the way of syncing their software and systems together; Apple, with iCloud, has an elegant vision, but not one that will make sense for a still PC-dominant enterprise universe.
Enter Box Sync. We've rebuilt our core sync technology from the ground up, and we're introducing a new version of PC sync and the first ever Mac sync. It's integrated into our enterprise content and user management, and supports the business workflow you've come to expect from Box. It will help businesses connect 10, 100, or 10,000 employees and all their content to the cloud, seamlessly. We're rolling this new product out to business customers over the next few weeks and months. Please visit www.box.net/sync for more information.
Additional security tools and partnerships
Once your content is in the cloud, the next step is to make it as secure as possible. This can mean a number of things, and the greatest challenge is balancing the ease-of-use and simplicity that drives productivity and utilization of Box, with the strict enterprise requirements that customers expect. And this happens to be an area where we spend a disproportionate amount of time getting it right: making sure Box is a product that can be adopted and loved by users and IT alike. So to help with all of your cloud security needs, we're releasing a number of new features to help with this effort.
The first is called "Trusted Access," which will be available in your account in the next few days. This feature, when turned on, will keep an active list of all the browsers, applications, and devices that are connected to your Box – and you'll be notified every time a new location or service is added. This can be managed at both the user and admin levels. Secondly, in addition to our partnerships with VMware and Ping Identity, we're announcing an integration and support of Okta, one of the emerging leaders in cloud security. Through this service, enterprises are able to easily manage the myriad apps and identities in their organization, seamlessly connecting the two securely.
Social roadmap to make Box more collaborative
Finally, one of the most exciting initiatives we have at the moment is to make Box more social and collaborative. Needless to say, the future of content management is not in stale systems that make it more cumbersome and complex to share information. No. Our applications are destined to become more people-oriented, leveraging the actions and communications of those around us to create more value around our content. At Box, we're building for this future. With an amazing slate of updates in the next couple of quarters, including more personalized updates, relevant content that permeates your views of Box, and workflow that is more casual, yet more powerful, in nature. We want you to be able to drive projects to completion faster, know what people are working on around you, and understand what's going on with your content in new ways.
This is how we're building the Smarter Enterprise. We hope you'll be joining us in this new way to work.

Alamance County, NC -- Downed power lines in southern Alamance County knocked out power to thousands Friday morning.
According to Duke Energy's website, about 5,300 residents were without power at 7:30 a.m. The outages dropped to about 1,500 by 8:30 a.m. The map on their website shows most of the outages between Highway 87 and Highway 54.
Jenny Faulker with Alamance-Burlington Schools said some schools were impacted during the outage, but they opened on time. Faulker said Duke Energy told her the power would be restored by 8:30 a.m.
Assistant Superintendent Charles Monroe said power was restored by 10:20 a.m. He said Duke Energy informed him the cause of the outage was due to a transition line blew out in the community's substation.

Daytona man sentenced to 15 years in prison for distributing crack cocaine
Published: Thursday, September 19, 2013 at 9:13 p.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, September 19, 2013 at 9:19 p.m.
A Daytona Beach man was sentenced Thursday to 15 years in federal prison after pleading guilty to possession of crack cocaine, a firearm and ammunition, federal authorities said.
Anthony White, 31, pleaded guilty June 25 to charges of possession with intent to distribute crack cocaine, possession of a firearm and ammunition by a convicted felon, according to the United States Attorney's Office for the Middle District of Florida.
White's sentence will be followed by five years supervised probation, a release from the office states.
An investigation into a hit-and-run accident crash on March 29, 2012, led officers to a stolen car in the parking lot of the La Quinta Inn on West International Speedway Boulevard in Daytona Beach, officials said. When officers knocked on White's room's, he jumped from a balcony with a brown purse in his hand. White was caught and the purse had 21 baggies of "crack" cocaine and a scale for weighing the drugs. The firearm and ammunition were found in a bag in the room, investigators said.

BollywoodNewsWorld.com, Amitabh Bachchan couldn't have got more adventurous than this! Stuck in Mumbai's endless traffic, the megastar rushed to a restroom in a nearby temple to attend nature's call, without getting caught!
The 68-year-old took to his public blog to describe his plight Friday evening while returning to his Juhu home.
"Sitting in the car for an endless period of time causes other problems as well…You need to get to the ..errr.. euphemism?? Came a moment when it was simply uncontrollable. I just had to get to a washroom!" Amitabh posted on his blog Friday night.
"But where? And how? Stuck in the middle of nowhere in traffic that looks like an enlarged parking lot, full. So…you invent! Got off the car and before passers by could realise who it was…'Arre…isn't that Amitabh? No! No…what he be doing walking the streets!'
"I fortunately discovered a small temple by the road and charged in asking for the toilets. A somewhat dazed security quite involuntarily pointed to the back of the structure and I just made it in time before I burst open! The hazards of weak bladdered humans!" he added.
It was at this time that Amitabh missed the van he was gifted by late filmmaker Manmohan Desai.
"…the first of its kind in the industry – seats, make-up facility, bed, toilet, the works… never faced any problem till I had it. Now apparently they have nappies for elders too!" he wrote.

THE WOODLANDS, Texas, June 24. ESTEEMED coach Dick Bower passed away last night, Sunday, June 23, at the Memorial Herman hospital. Bower suffered a heart attack earlier this month, followed by a severe stroke in his sleep on Thursday, June 13. He was unable to recover from the stroke and was placed on life support at the hospital for over a week so that out of state family members could travel to Texas to offer their last regards. Bower was 83 years old.
Bower spent much of his based out of New Orleans, and moved there nearly 40 years ago after accepting the head coach position at Tulane University. He and his wife, Barbara, recently relocated to The Woodlands after hurricane Katrina damaged much of the city.
Bower was known as difficult and demanding coach that earned respect throughout the swimming community for his success developing swimmers and deep knowledge of the sport. In addition to coaching at Tulane, Bower founded the successful New Orleans USS Swim Club Team BOLTS.
Bower was also very involved with the National Interscholastic Swim Coaches Association, and was honored with a lifetime achievement award for his contribution to Collegiate, Scholastic and United States Swimming at the 2009 NISCA Awards Banquet. See the video clip, with an introduction from former NISCA president Dana Abbott below:
Upon receiving news of Bower's stroke, Abbott sent out the following e-mail:
"I swam for Dick my last 3 years at Tulane at the start of his tenure there. He was and has remained my mentor to this day. I live about 50 miles from him and [his wife] Barbara, and have gone to visit and chat about the 'good old days,' watch Super Bowl games, and just have a meal out with them often since he moved here after Katrina triggered their moving to The Woodlands from New Orleans. On my last visit a couple of months ago, we discussed an(other) article he was writing about swimming. Always the thinker and teacher."
Bower's daughter Alice is organizing a memorial service for Bower in New Orleans. It is tentatively scheduled for the first weekend in September to coincide with the annual ASCA World Clinic. More information will come as it is made available.

Draft Insider Forum
College updates - Gray, Stanek, Wahl, Masek
Insider-based subscribers can receive updates and reports from the PG staff on some of the top draft-eligible players from across the nation.
you must log in at the top of the page to post
Jonathan Gray
- He wasn't as sharp as I had seen him earlier this spring, at least not initially. There was (understandably/expectedly) some serious scouting heat in to see him, and it looked as though he was really amped up and throwing max effort almost out of his shoes. The radar gun readings obviously reflected this with his usual mid- to upper-90s fastball that has reached triple digits. He settled down almost immediately after that, as he looked more like his usual self in the 2nd inning, having more of a plan, rhythm and tempo to his craft. He really has good FB command, with the ability to both catch the corners and simply blow hitters away.
Trey Masek
- Gray faced Texas Tech's Trey Masek, who also has good stuff, but is the opposite of Gray physically with a slender, shorter stature. There's some funk to his delivery, but he has a very live arm. His fastball shows good dip late in the zone, and he's also not afraid to elevate his 4-seamer to get swings and misses up in the zone. He also threw a good slider, but he did get hit around a little, especially early, although some balls were badly misplayed behind him leading to 2 unearned runs. He also dropped in a couple of curveballs for strikes, using his more electric breaking ball, his sldier, as his out pitch. He also threw a quality changeup, but I'm guessing there's some concern from scouts about his size and effort.
Ryne Stanek
- Interesting how his slow start, which really wasn't even that bad, got a lot of press, but the national chatter seems to have gone silent now that Stanek has excelled again in SEC conference play. This is the 3rd start I've seen of his in SEC play, and he looked just about as had he the previous 2 games. He pitched on his usual downhill plane with his electric fastball that has some nice sinking life at times. He pitches off of his fastball very well to set up his slider, which is untouchable when its at its best. He's able to add and subtract off of his breaking ball to drop it in for strikes and bury one in the dirt for ugly swings. I don't recall seeing a batter barrel up the ball well against him in the last 3 times I've seen him, and as he has filled out his tall, lean and once lanky frame, it's easy to remember why we had him ranked the No. 2 overall draft prospect to open the spring.
Bobby Wahl
- Lots of pitchers with this update. This was the first time I saw Wahl this spring, and I didn't walk away as impressed as I did the times I saw him last year. He's a good, not great, all around pitcher that still likely will be taken in the first or sandwich rounds, and he's a good athlete on the mound with good size and overall athletic proportions. He wasn't as sharp to open the game, but really did a nice job settling down and finding his groove in the middle innings. He pitches to contact, or at least did in this game, going for the quick out rather than going for the punchout. He has good fastball command, but I've seen it better. His breaking ball was also soft at times, but other times was very explosive diving hard, down and away from RH batters. Some of the Kentucky hitters got good contact off Wahl early, including
Austin Cousino
, who yanked a belt-high fastball over the wall in RF in the 1st inning.
Wahl's battery mate, catcher
Stuart Turner
, has an absolute cannon behind the plate. That's one of the best arms from behind the plate I've seen, and, albeit in a very limited look, one of the single best tools for this year's draft.

STARKVILLE, Miss. (AP) -- Mississippi State's revamped offense did everything asked of it during last weekend's lopsided victory over Jackson State.
But the degree of difficulty -- along with the stakes -- increase exponentially on Saturday when the Bulldogs (1-0) host Auburn (0-1) at Davis Wade Stadium.
The Auburn-Mississippi State game has become crucial for both teams for many reasons -- most notably its early spot on the schedule.
The Bulldogs have been on the wrong end of the scoreboard the past two seasons, losing 17-14 in Starkville in 2010 and 41-34 at Auburn in 2011.
Mississippi State believes it has the talent to finally get past the Tigers and notch a signature Southeastern Conference victory. The Bulldogs have a 0-12 record against Auburn, Arkansas, LSU and Alabama during Mullen's four-year tenure.

Jeff Mathis starting catcher for the Anaheim Angles had his jersey retired at his Marianna High School.
He played for the bulldogs from 97-01, and helped lead Marianna to a state title in 1999 in baseball, as well as a runner-up finish in football in 2000 AS Quarterback.
Mathis was taken in round one...33rd overall in 2001, and made his debut for the Angels in August 2005.
For his MLB career he's batting .200, with 20 homers, and 99 RBI.
That 1999 state championship team was also honored during the ceremony.

Although freedom of the press is guaranteed by law, the government is accused of using both the threat of libel laws and its right to grant broadcast licenses to apply pressure on the media. In January, Prime Minister Keith Mitchell threatened to take legal action against sections of the local media, which he claimed had libeled him. At the end of February a suit was filed against the operators of 90.1FM over calls for the re-opening of an inquiry into allegations of corruption against Mitchell – the so-called 'briefcase scandal.' At the end of August, the president of the Media Workers' Association of Grenada (MWAG), Michael Bascombe, denounced "undue pressures" on journalists and media companies in the context of reporting about court documents in the United States dealing with the failed First International Bank of Grenada and alleged bribes made to Mitchell and other Grenadian officials.
There was better news concerning the forthcoming Broadcasting Authority Act. In September, MWAG representatives and government officials met and agreed to scrap a clause suggesting media workers be imprisoned as a form of punishment for violating the rules of the Act. There was also agreement on a method of appointing members of a proposed Broadcasting Commission to regulate the industry, on amendments to protect the media from political interference, and the need for an Access to Information Act. Grenada has 5 television stations, 11 radio stations, 4 newspapers, and 5 periodicals. The government does not place restrictions on the internet, which was accessed by around 20 percent of the population in 2007.

Brianne Camp is a second generation choreographer who is now making a name for herself in the DC area. As daughter to choreographic genius Karma Camp, Brianne has assisted on or co- choreographed Hairspray, Xanadu (assisting Matthew Gardiner) and Overtures Musical Theatre Institute all at Signature Theatre. Her work has also been seen on Disney Cruise lines, including the musical Aladdin. On her own Brianne's work was recently seen in The Taming of The Shrew at Folger Theatre. She has taught and choreographed productions at Interlochen Academy in Michigan and this fall will return as a performer in Signature's Best Little Whorehouse in Texas for which she will be also be assisting her Mom on.
Did you study dance in school?
Growing up I studied at a competitive studio in Southern Maryland starting at the age of 2. I actually did not study dance in College. I was a member of my university's dance team, which kept me dancing. I have a BS in Communications with an emphasis in Public Relations and I minored in French.
What was the first show you worked on as a choreographer?
The first show I ever choreographed was AIDA at Interlochen Arts Center for their high school musical theatre production. The director put a lot of trust in me and gave me free rein to help start my creative career.
Your mother Karma Camp is a choreographic goddess here in the DC area. Did she encourage you growing up to get into the same profession as she is in?
No. My mother always wanted me to reach for my own dreams. If dancing and choreographing wasn't in the cards for me then she would have fully supported whatever I chose to do. She just wants me to happy and passionate about my career. It has been nice to start this journey with her though, we found out we make a great team.
What has been the toughest show for you to choreograph thus far?
Always a tough question. Carousel was probably my toughest project at Interlochen Arts Center. When working in educational theatre you don't always get the technicians you need and for Carousel you need a good amount, especially with the "Dream Ballet." Luckily, I worked with some fantastic kids who let me whip them into shape and make them into dancers. The show was beautiful but I still feel to this day it was my toughest project. Carousel is a hard show to do.
What are your next few projects?
I am currently working on Overtures, the summer musical theatre intensive at Signature Theatre. I fly back up to Interlochen to teach a few master classes. Then I get to stay home for a while as I help my mother choreograph The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas at Signature Theatre, which I will also be performing in.
See Mark Beachy's interview with Brianne and Karma Camp at the Helen Hayes Nominees Reception. (Fast forward to 8:22.)

Travelers jokingly call it the airport shuffle when they desperately move items from one bag to another to avoid overage fees.
Traveler Betty Cortes says she's seen the same bags come up at different weights on different Sea-Tac scales.
"I thought it was correct on these two, but the one on the end was more accurate than the first two," she said.
Cortes questioned the accuracy of the scales, and it turns out she may have good reason to.
Four years ago, before the Thanksgiving rush, KOMO News took a 50 pound bag to various ticket counters at Sea-Tac. Several of the airport scales were off, with some favoring the passenger and some favoring the airline.
State inspectors found the same thing. They found scales off by as much as 20 pounds, and with overage fees running as much as $125, a few extra pounds can be costly.
That was years ago, but inspectors made a surprise visit to the airport this week to see if the problem had been fixed.
Fifty pounds is key for passengers, because anything over that will cost them. But inspectors take the scales up to 500 pounds.
"If the scale is off significantly against the consumer, we can take the scale out of service. We can order it out of service right there on the spot," said Jerry Buendal, director of the Washington Weights and Measures Program.
Inspectors tested a Jet Blue scale and found minor problems, but not enough to pull the scale.
"We've had one scale that was a little bit off. Nothing significant at the level that it's used at, it just an indication that it needs some service," said inspector Art Fluharty.
If the testers find a scale that favors passengers, they won't take it out of service.
"If the scale is in the consumer's favor but the business is being shorted, the business can chose to continue to operate but we'll follow up to make sure they fix that," Buendal said.
Of the 192 scales at Sea-Tac, inspectors tested 128 and found two that favored the passenger and one that favored the airline. The three scales were not taken out of service because the tolerance was less than 1 pound.
Scales at the Walla Walla, Pasco and Yakima airports all passed inspection.
