Perils, pitfalls and problems of managing heterogeneous virtualization
Recently I spoke with Jasmine Noel, founding partner of Ptak Noel and Associates, LLC, regarding her research on the increasing drive for virtualization. What follows are some interesting observations -
"Enterprises keep asking for more agility (i.e. deploy more stuff even faster) and lower capital costs (i.e. minimize idle resources). Virtualization seems like the perfect answer. Virtual images can be deployed faster to provide more agility. More virtual images can be packed onto fewer physical systems to lower capital costs.
If only that were the end of the story.
Datacenter operations teams are realizing that virtualization is not a homogeneous, one-size-fits-all solution. Enterprises seem intent on acquiring different virtualization platforms as well as heterogeneous hardware platforms. This heterogenous virtualization is changing systems administration in some very fundamental ways:
• Virtualization decouples the traditional server and OS management from the physical hardware. This means administrators are being given a bunch of new, overlapping tools to manage the different virtual systems, which increases the potential for errors that impact business services.
• Virtual image management becomes more important (because someone will have to clean out the inevitable virtual sprawl) and more complex (because someone will have to minimize the business risk of high-speed image deployment).
• Matching dynamic workloads to virtual resources that can be easily and automatically added, deleted, moved or changed can't be done manually. Imagine trying to hitch a bucking rodeo bronco to a wagon that changes size every few minutes -- which doesn't bode well for guaranteed completion of critical business workloads.
There is no escaping these issues. Every enterprise has virtualization strategies for different types of infrastructure and applications. No single form of virtualization fits every aspect of those strategies. Thus there will be different hypervisors in the enterprise -- heterogeneity will persist. So what can be done about it?
• Start educating the executives that a virtual image needs proactive administration to keep it healthy They also need to understand that managing a roster of hundreds of virtual images is vastly different from keeping a spreadsheet list of 10-20 golden configurations. IT staff will need a major productivity boost keep up.
• Start seriously thinking about managing resources via policies, since it's the only way to control changes that can happen automatically.
• Start evaluating which of the repetitive administrative activities can be done in a cross-platform, cross-VM manner. The more those tasks can be automated, the more time there'll be to spend on avoiding the perils, pitfalls and problems of managing heterogeneous virtualization."

Perils, Pitfalls and Prolems - Pt 2 Tools to Tame the Heterogeneous

Perils, pitfalls and problems need solutions. So, I asked Jasmine Noel to continue her discussion and to focus on what an enterprise might do to address the issues. Jasmine -
Tools to Tame Heterogeneous Virtualization Management
As I mentioned in my initial blog, virtualization is elevating the daily stress for over-extended datacenter administrators to alarming levels. Higher business agility and lower capital costs through virtualization can't be achieved without sophisticated, complete, and always-on management of heterogenous virtual computing resources. In other words, agile management of heterogeneous virtualization is critical for business agility and profitability. Hence, the reason administrator stress levels are going through the roof is that they don't have agile management of heterogeneous virtualization.
It is vital, and not optional then, that IT organizations become adept at matching increasingly dynamic needs (be they automated workload schedules or on-demand service requests) with the resource flexibility afforded by virtualization's rapid provisioning strengths. As such, system administrators are quickly realizing that they need to look for a different type of management solution. So what are the characteristics of this new solution type?
A policy-based approach is a key characteristic of this new solution type. Virtualization enables application images to move to different virtual machines very quickly (in some cases before admins get a chance to check their emailed service tickets). Policies enable IT to introduce some necessary controls around those moves and changes. Policies can also simplify the workload to resource matching process. For example, policies can ensure that multiple workloads all run on the same virtual machine in a particular datacenter location, or incorporate time of day requirements so that a workload spans ten virtual machines during the day but thirty virtual machines at night.
Centralized management of dense computing infrastructures (be they Blades, packaged Cloud systems, or mainframes) appears to be a natural extension of this phenomena because for the first time, administrators truly need a centralized management platform to manage virtual systems. Many IT organizations are learning the hard way about the sprawl created when virtual images are deployed at will with minimal oversight or visibility into how the environment is changing. System administrators need management solutions that make oversight and resource visibility as quick and seamless as deploying the virtual images. Solutions which afford centralized control over all virtualization options and extend across a diverse infrastructure enable optimal use of administrators' time.
Besides centralization, the solution should also have a workflow-based approach to automation embedded in its design. Automating the many other tasks (patching, security checks, compliance checks, etc.) that surround virtual image deployment drive down the business risk of high-speed image deployment. When these tasks are orchestrated as complete workflows, IT productivity skyrockets, which gives administrators the time to focus on policy design and decision-related resource analysis.
There is no escaping these solution requirements. The system management status quo can't deliver the agile management of heterogeneous virtualization that is essential for business agility and profitability. What administrators can do is demand that management vendors prove how they deliver on these requirements.

Wayne_Z_World : Highlighting the business benefits of WMQ configuration tools
Wayne Bucek 120000989Y firstname.lastname@example.com Tags:  mainframe servicemanagement ztiv 2 Comments 1,889 Visits
OMEGAMON XE for Messaging is a complete WMQ management solution. Many customers focus exclusively on the performance monitoring aspect of the product, which is the ability to monitor WebSphere Broker and WebSphere MQ, and disregard the WMQ configuration agent.
The configuration agent is a robust, feature rich, component of the solution. However, the features and associated benefits of the configuration component are distinctly different from those of the monitoring components. When discussing the WMQ Configuration agent, I like to begin by covering the business benefits it offers. The following items (IMHO) represent the business benefits of the WMQ Configuration agent.
* Centralized administration of WebSphere MQ objects
* Single GUI across platforms
* Eliminates configuration errors
* Assists in dealing with large numbers of objects
* Disaster recovery tool
The list of features offered by the WMQ Configuration agent are too lengthy to list here, but a full accounting can be found in the product documentation at:
Future blog entries will cover this material in more detail.
Wayne_Z_World : Monitoring multiple WebSphere MQ application queues
Wayne Bucek 120000989Y firstname.lastname@example.com Tags:  ztiv servicemanagement mainframe 1,054 Visits
Many customers manage the performance of their MQ environments based on requirements from the application development community. These requirements are often as simple as monitoring the current depth of the queues used by the application. When the current queue depth of a queue exceeds the threshold specified for the application, an alert must be raised. This relatively straight forward process can become an administrative nightmare in an environment where thousands of queues need to be monitored with this level of granularity. In this case, an OMEGAMON XE for Messaging situation would be required to monitor each queue. This design results in a high cost of collection, along with a high cost of ownership, as the administrative burden of implementing this scheme is prohibitive.
A better way to approach the problem is to group queues into queue depth threshold brackets. For example, queues A, B, C; are all evaluated against a current depth threshold of 10 of more. Queues D, E, F are evaluated against the next higher threshold bracket, perhaps current depth greater than 50. Bracket thresholds are determined based on the current depth requirements specified by the application owners. As many brackets as needed can be defined.
The key to the solution lies in the assignment of a queue to a threshold bracket. Customers will seldom have a queue naming standard based on their queue depth monitoring needs. However, OMEGAMON XE for Messaging provides a creative solution to the problem. OMEGAMON is sensitive to the queue definitions description field. The description field, typically a comment, can be modified to indicate which queue depth threshold bracket the queue should be evaluated against. Then, a single OMEGAMON XE situation can be constructed, reflective of multiple (perhaps all) queue depth threshold brackets. This situation would use an 'OR' construct, essentially checking for combination of Current Depth < threshold AND description field == queue bracket threshold limit, across the multiple specified brackets.

Hi. I am Wayne Bucek a 20-year veteran in the systems management arena. When I have to come off the bike trails, I am a Consulting IT Specialist for zTivoli solutions. My favorite part of the job is to assist customers with the selection, design, and implementation of IBM zTivoli products. I am IBM-certified in WebSphere MQ.
Prior to joining vendor community, I had a real job - 10 years' experience across the disciplines of z/OS systems programming, application programming, and performance management.
I hope to make this blog a place z techies can come to link their real world business problems to zTivoli solutions.
Wayne_Z_World: Monitoring large numbers of queues …. Better, Faster, Cheaper!
Wayne Bucek 120000989Y email@example.com Tags:  mainframe ztiv servicemanagement 1,135 Visits
One of the challenges in reporting on large amounts of data is, well, reporting on large amounts of data! The process of collecting, storing, and subsequently displaying thousands of objects is a daunting task for any performance management tool. Certain types of data lend themselves to this quandary, and WebSphere MQ queues in large Z/OS queue managers is certainly one of those cases.
Large Z/OS queue managers can easily accommodate 1000's of WMQ objects. I have seen customer environments which are in excess of 10,000 objects in a single queue manager. Obviously, there is a significant cost in retrieving and displaying such a large amount of data.
Understanding the requirement to reduce the TCO of system management tools, Tivoli R&D has recently delivered functionality which significantly decreases the CPU required to process large amounts of data. CPU reductions of up to 85% have been observed when executing user requests returning a result set of 16mb.
This enhancement is available for Z/OS and distributed system based OMEGAMON / ITM / ITCAM agents. The following table outlines PTFs delivering this function.

Private Cloud on System z
Raymond Sun 060000ASTK firstname.lastname@example.com Tags:  service-management mainframe linux tivz ibmtivoli virtualization 1 Comment 2,413 Visits
Did you know that System z was a great platform for a private cloud? Software Group did a benchmark comparing a popular Intel based hypervisor to z/VM and observed the impact to CPU utilization, throughput (transactions per second), and response time of a sample application as they varied the number of virtual servers. Their results are documented in a paper: http://www.ibm.com/common/ssi/fcgi-bin/ssialias?infotype=SA&subtype=WH&appname=STGE_ZS_ZS_USEN&htmlfid=ZSW03125USEN&attachment=ZSW03125USEN.PDF
There is a companion paper that discusses the TCO implications of private cloud versus public cloud: http://www.ibm.com/common/ssi/fcgi-bin/ssialias?infotype=SA&subtype=WH&appname=STGE_ZS_ZS_USEN&htmlfid=ZSW03126USEN&attachment=ZSW03126USEN.PDF
Have you noticed that when the press talks about cloud, they're typically not talking about System z? I wonder why. I have some theories, but would be interested in your perspective.
Linux on System z
Raymond Sun 060000ASTK firstname.lastname@example.com Tags:  ztiv service-management tivz ibmtivoli mainframe linux 2 Comments 2,092 Visits
As you consider moving workloads to Linux on System z, you will want to evaluate which workloads are the best fit. Ideally, data intensive or mixed workloads are best suited for System z whereas CPU intensive workloads may be better run on other platforms. On a recent webcast where I was co-presenting with Bill Reeder (IBM Linux Enterprise Servers), we discussed best workloads for Linux on System z which leverages the strengths of System z like WebSphere MQ, Domino, SAP. We also talked about good workloads for Linux on System z which run well on Linux on System z but can also run on other platforms. So, there are other factors (e.g. organizational politics) which must be evaluated in deciding the ideal platform for workloads.
Joe Clabby of Clabby Analytics on the Mainframe and Cloud

Recently I interviewed Joe Clabby of Clabby Analytics regarding the role of the mainframe for cloud computing. We invite your comments -
Q - Joe, cloud computing has been characterized in many ways, but is basically a new service consumption and delivery model inspired by consumer Internet services. Key components include on-demand self service, ubiquitous network access, location independent resource pooling and rapid elasticity. In recent weeks you have been advocating the mainframe for management of the cloud. Why?
A - Simple ─ a mainframe is a cloud-in-a-box.
Q- In your experience, have customers who have adopted service management from system z realized measurable ROI? Can you share any examples?
Q - Not every customer has a mainframe. At what point(s) should a business consider adopting the platform for service management?

Good news for all is that the "Call for Papers" for Pulse 2010 has been extended by popular demand. November 20th is the revised deadline so there is more time to finalize creative input. I spoke with Marcus Boone, product manager for Tivoli's system z portfolio, regarding suggestions for Pulse participation. He is anxious to hear from those customers who can share real-world experiences on how an integrated approach to service management on System z is creating real benefits. Virtualization projects with savings, new Linux workload projects or best practices in the very complex world of 'always available' are good examples. Marcus believes Pulse 2010's emphasis on alternative forms of customer participation, such as roundtables, panels and open discussions to support a topic will be both more interesting and more meaningful to all.
Please plan to join the conversation. Submit your proposal online at http://www.ibm.com/software/tivoli/pulse/.

PUBLISHED March 21, 2013 0 1 / 8 Thrust Chamber On March 20 Jeff Bezos, founder of Amazon.com, announced that he and his privately funded Bezos Expeditions team had successfully retrieved engines that had once launched Apollo astronauts to the moon.Using remotely operated vehicles to fashion slings around the fragmented F-1 engine components (thrust chamber pictured), crew members recovered enough parts to reconstruct the majority of two engines.The fragments were recovered from the seafloor at depths of almost three miles (4.8 kilometers). In a statement Bezos thanked NASA, saying, "We're excited to be bringing a couple of your F-1s home."F-1 engines were the most powerful component of the Saturn V rocket—a Heavy Lift Vehicle specifically developed during the 1960s to carry the weighty payloads of lunar missions. Saturn V was the rocket of choice for the historic Apollo missions and today remains the most powerful rocket to fly successfully. It was last used in 1973 to launch the Skylab space station into Earth orbit.On each Saturn V rocket, five F-1 engines were designed to burn until their fuel ran out, then to separate from the rocket and fall into the ocean. "We want the hardware to tell its true story," Bezos writes, "including its 5,000-miles-per-hour (8,000 kilometers-per-hour) reentry and subsequent impact with the ocean surface."In 2012 when the engines were first located with deep-sea sonar off the coast of Cape Canaveral in Florida, Bezos claimed they belonged to the historic Apollo 11 spaceflight. But further study and restoration is needed to confirm the identify of the engines.Ten Apollo missions—all launched from Kennedy Space Center between 1968 and 1972—used the Saturn V rocket, each with five F-1 engines that plummeted, as planned, into the sea. It is hoped that serial numbers will be able to connect the recovered engines to a specific Apollo mission.InspirationBut regardless of which Apollo the engines once launched into space, Bezos hopes they will inspire others: "I was five years old when I watched Apollo 11 unfold on television, and without any doubt it was a big contributor to my passions for science, engineering, and exploration ... NASA is one of the few institutions I know that can inspire five-year-olds ... and with this endeavor, maybe we can inspire a few more youth to invent and explore."The engines remain the property of NASA, and once restored by the Bezos team, they will be returned to NASA for display to the public, possibly in the Smithsonian's National Air and Space Museum.The museum houses a number of objects from the Apollo missions, including the Apollo 11 command module Columbia and the space suits worn by Apollo 11 astronauts Michael Collins, Buzz Aldrin, and Neil Armstrong.Bezos has asked that NASA send the second recovered F-1 engine to the Museum of Flight in his hometown, Seattle.Of his "incredible adventure" Bezos writes, "Each piece we bring on deck conjures for me the thousands of engineers who worked together back then to do what for all time had been thought surely impossible."—Lacey Gray Image courtesy Bezos Expeditions Corrosion A crew member aboard the Seabed Worker hoses down a gas generator and manifold once belonging to an F-1 engine of a Saturn V rocket. More than four decades of saltwater exposure has corroded the recovered engine component, which will be stabilized and restored before going on display to the public. (Watch a video of the recovery.) Image courtesy Bezos Expeditions Powerhouse Thirty-six stories tall, Saturn V rockets—one is shown here launching Apollo 15 on July 26, 1971—were the rocket of choice for the Apollo missions of the 1960s and 1970s. Although Saturn V rockets have not been used since the 1973 launch of the Skylab space station, it remains the most powerful rocket to fly successfully. Photograph courtesy NASA All Five Saturn V rockets relied on five F-1 engines—shown here—to propel the weighty payloads of lunar missions into space. According to NASA, the Saturn V was powerful enough to launch ten school buses into Earth orbit or four school buses to the moon. Photograph by Raul Touzon, National Geographic From the Deep Members of the Seabed Worker's crew inspect a thrust chamber that may have once helped to propel Apollo 11, the first successful mission to the moon, into space. The engines were recovered off the coast of Cape Canaveral in Florida, at a depth of around 14,000 feet (4,267 meters). Image courtesy Bezos Expeditions Engine Down A nozzle from an F-1 engine rests on the ocean floor. Bezos Expeditions used deep-sea sonar to locate the engine components almost three miles (4.8 kilometers) beneath the ocean's surface off the coast of Cape Canaveral.

About Edelbrock Parts & Accessories
Vic Edelbrock Sr. was born in a small farming community near Wichita, Kansas in 1913. In 1938, Vic Sr. bought his first project car... a 1932 Ford Roadster. This car was a turning point in Edelbrock history. It was Vic Sr.'s entry into the world of "hot rods" and it inspired the design and manufacture of the first Edelbrock intake manifold. The roadster became an important part of Vic's product development. He would install his parts on the roadster to determine how well they would perform. Vic received multiple requests for his twin carb manifold. This was the driving force behind the opening of his own performance parts business. Today Edelbrock Corporation has seven locations: four in Torrance and three in San Jacinto, California, totaling over 500,000 square feet. Torrance Headquarters include: R&D; manufacturing; state-of-the-art testing facilities, advertising and tech support. "Proven Performance" is the philosophy that began with Vic Sr. in 1938 and it continues today with the same high standards of performance and quality. Vic Sr. would be proud of what has grown out of his small garage in Los Angeles, California.

Ext 2.0 and SWFObject/Flash issue
Not sure if this is a bug or not, but thought I'd share since I had a problem and was able to work around. In a nutshell, I was creating a flash object using SWFObject bound to a div residing in an east panel PRIOR to creating the overall ViewPort layout. I had a heck of a time trying to figure out why I couldn't address the flash object with JS in IE (works in Firefox) like I normally do. After doing a few hours of debugging, I determined that the problem was due to the order of events -- simply moving the SWFObject creation AFTER creating the ViewPort effectively resolved the problem.
Not sure if this is a bug or not (or if I'm just being stupid), but I thought I'd share. Didn't have this problem with Ext 1.x, so it's probably noteworthy.

Can A Lawyer Help Me Get Compensation In An SUV Rollover Case
Years ago, no one knew that SUVs could be a dangerous vehicle with a design conducive to rollover accidents. Publications that discuss rollover testing did not exist to inform consumers and to help them make the right choice. In 2010, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration released a publication that revealed over 10,000 people die from rollover crashes every year. This publication also shows consumers how to distinguish amongst top-heavy vehicles to find the safest ones. If you have been involved in an SUV rollover accident and were not aware of these safety issues with SUVs, then you may have a negligence claim against the manufacturer. A personal injury lawyer can help you file a lawsuit against SUV manufacturers so that you can receive the compensation you need to receive medical treatment for your injuries.
Types of Compensation for Your SUV Rollover Case
When you have been involved in an SUV rollover accident, there are a few forms of compensation that you may be entitled to receive. You may be able to receive lost wages if you have been missing work due to your injuries. A lawyer will calculate the total number of work days that you have had to miss due to your injuries. You may also be able to obtain future lost wages if you have suffered severe injuries and will be unable to ever work again. Here are some other types of compensation that you may be able to receive in your SUV rollover case:
- Pain and suffering
- Your medical bills
- Costs of therapy
Call an SUV Rollover Attorney
An attorney will help you receive all of the funds that you are entitled to in your case. The lawyer will also be responsible for working with the insurance companies to reach a settlement. Reaching a settlement can be a preferable option if you do not want to spend more than a couple of years negotiating the damages for your case. Trials can often last for years in these types of cases.

Aim: The objective of the study was to examine the impact of WWII-related caloric restriction (CR) on subsequent breast cancer (BC) risk based on individual exposure experiences and whether this effect was modified by age at exposure.
Methodology: We compared 65 breast cancer patients diagnosed between 2005–2010 to 200 controls without breast cancer who were all members of various organizations for Jewish WWII survivors in Israel. All participants were Jewish women born in Europe prior to 1945 who lived at least 6 months under Nazi rule during WWII and immigrated to Israel after the war. We estimated CR using a combined index for hunger and used logistic regression models to estimate the association between CR and BC, adjusting for potential confounders.
Results: Women who were severely exposed to hunger had an increased risk of BC (OR=5.0, 95% CI= 2.3–10.8) compared to women who were mildly exposed. The association between CR and BC risk was stronger for women who were exposed at a younger age (0–7 years) compared to the risk of BC in women exposed at ≥ 14 years (OR= 2.8, 95% CI=1.3–6.3).
Conclusions: Severe exposure to CR is associated with a higher risk for BC decades later, and may be generalized to other cases of severe starvation during childhood that may have long-term effects on cancer in adulthood.

I'll be travelling on a cyclocross bike with panniers. Without the panniers I would ride it without worry, but I just want to be sure it is at least decent before I take my laden bike on it.

WHEELING - He's run for 24 hours straight. He's biked across - and around the perimeter of - the United States. He's completed the Ironman Triathlon in Kona, Hawaii. And he's an Ogden Ironman.
He's Mitch Toto, and later this month, for the first time in 38 years, he won't be at the starting line for the Ogden Newspapers Half Marathon Classic.
Toto's body is willing - he had planned to run the Ogden until earlier this month - but the 76-year-old was diagnosed late last year with a heart arrhythmia. His recovery has gone well, but he and his wife of 53 years, Nancy, agreed the stress of running another half marathon didn't make sense.
"It's a letdown, you want to do it but your better judgment says not to," Toto said of competing in the Ogden. "I've had a long run, not only with the Ogden but also triathlons, marathons, a 4,200-mile trek across the United States, a12,000-mile ride on the nation's perimeter, 24-hour runs, endurance challenges. ... I've put a lot of miles on this body of mine."
Toto also has run the Boston Marathon twice.
What's bittersweet for Toto is the Ogden is where his running career began. At age 40, he ran the first Wheeling distance race and, according to Nancy, has never looked back.
In fact, the Ogden race has played such a role in the Totos' life that their daughter, Christine Toto-Nicholes, pregnant and due with the couples' first grandchild at the time of one year's race, was informed by her mother that she could have the child before or after the event - just not on race day.
Toto-Nicholes and others will honor Mitch Toto during this year's Ogden Half Marathon Classic, set for May 24, by running in his honor with shirts that read "Toto 38" on the back.
Toto's departure from the active Ironmen ranks leaves just 10 men who have run every race: David Claypool, Tim Cogan, Pat Cronin, Paul Exley, Dave Fiorilli, Steve Habursky, Dr. John Holloway, H. Lawrence Jones, Joe Kubik and Michael Lemaster.
Race Director R. "Scat" Scatterday said Toto served as an inspiration for his fellow Ironmen.
"The spirit was willing, but the body wasn't," Scatterday said of Toto. "He's been an inspiration to not only the average runner, but particularly the Ironmen because he practices and warms up for our race by running several 5Ks.
"He is a true Ironman, everything about the guy. We will miss him at this year's Ogden Half Marathon."

The battle over the Ten Commandments in Alabama is making its way to the nation's capitol.
Supporters are taking a replica of the monument, removed from Alabama's judicial building rotunda, to Washington, D.C.
"My argument today is that the Ten Commandments is the moral framework, the moral code of the United States justice system and we want it to remain forever," said John Giles, of the Christian Coalition of Alabama, at a stop in Columbia, S. Carolina.
Last month, hundreds of people gathered in Montgomery in support of keeping a granite Ten Commandments monument on display there.

A BLONDE, smoky-eyed ingenue in a little black dress thrashes about a marble floor for a Prada Milano perfume. Wearing a tuxedo jacket over a low-cut leather corset, Kate Moss bites her lower lip, throws her head back and flashes a milky breast, this time for Yves St Laurent eau de toilette.
All this and we've barely just cleared the table. Of course, scents and sex have long been bedfellows, blame it on that heady combination of skin, sweat and pheromones, but when the heck did prime-time TV become soft-porn time?
I mean to say what's next? Sexpo ads during Video Hits?
Well … yes, as it transpires. During the past year, 40 per cent of all advertising complaints received by the Australian Standards Bureau have concerned sex and nudity. It should come as no surprise that the loudest and most strident criticism came from women. Since these images work best on us, it stands to reason that we're so quick to respond negatively, and we're also more suspicious than men of the motives of advertisers.
If there was ever a case in point, then it's that Nandos ad, in which a topless, pole-dancing woman shakes her G-string-trussed rear at a client before sitting down, this time fully clothed, at the chain's restaurant with her family (and presumably paying for the meal with her ''tips''). Who would have thought it? Bad taste hand in hand with a chicken wrap.
The ad drew a record number of almost 360 complaints when it first aired in 2007, the same year the American Psychological Association published a landmark report on the negative effects on young women from long-term exposure to sexualised ads.
Sure, that's partly why I'm more than a little miffed to see Kate in her S&M gear in my lounge room. Not that I am particularly offended or unduly influenced by the degree of nudity on show. I mean, there's no use denying that the images of the model tripping the light fantastic through Paris in a post-coital fug are moody and, well yes, artfully lit.
The same can be said of model-of-the-moment Lara Stone insouciantly challenging the viewer to make eye contact as she runs the stopper along her collarbone and down her cleavage. Upon exiting the frame, Lara leaves behind her kitten-heel slingbacks, the aforementioned little black dress and a hell of lot more than a 250-millilitre perfume bottle's worth of innuendo.
Yep, it's in your face all right, but here's what's on the nose - the timing. Kate and Lara catch me off guard. They flash across the flat screen during the chiefly benign and mildly entertaining PG timeslot flanked by Neighbours and the wrong side of the kids' bedtime.
In short, when I least expect them. Little wonder my reflexes let me down.
And while my breastfed seven-month-old isn't likely to think anything other than "Oh goody, a snack" when presented with an exposed mammary at this time of the evening, I'm not sure it washes so effortlessly over the head of my 3½-year-old.
Toddlers are sponges. We all know that, and it's not just the germs and bacteria that they pick up along the way. They soak up just about everything around them.
Well, there is the odd exception, subtlety being one, and I'm not just talking about their tenuous grip on social niceties. An artistic shot and moody lighting are all well and good, but you can't expect a three-year-old to see beyond the half-naked lady (come to think of it, the same can be said about some adults). It's just not in their make-up, and precisely why Saturday morning music videos don't get much of a look-in in our house.
That's what makes me question the integrity of these ad campaigns. Despite the ever dominant product placement, what lingers is the whiff of exploitation and opportunism. Is it a coincidence that they appear just as mum, dad and the kids surrender in front of the telly? Or as the Australian Association of National Advertisers prepares to wind up its first review of its code of ethics in more than a decade? Given that advertisers are a savvy lot, not bloody likely.
Of course, it's up to parents to police viewing. Keep the TV off until the kids go to bed and the problem's solved, right? Yes, in a fashion, but it seems to me this lets advertisers off the hook too easily. The code is the foundation upon which the industry's self-regulation is built, and it must now yield to greater scrutiny and accountability.
What better way for the advertising industry to show the viewing public that it means business than to bump these ads from prime time? This isn't about watering down a sexy product, it's about ensuring our precious, unwitting offspring aren't the one's copping an eyeful.

JTG writing book
Some interesting stories are about to be released to the public, as JTG has announced that he is writing a tell all book about his tenure in WWE. One of the main topics that he will discuss will be backstage heat, which was the rumored reason as to why management decided to punish the former member of Cryme Time. For those that have forgotten, he was one of the more vocal performers when they were receiving smaller Wrestlemania bonuses.

By Graig Carbino - ALBANY, NY (Jun 24, 2009) USSoccerPlayers -- No fight? No heart? The United States took all of that well publicized criticism after losses to Italy and Brazil in the first round of the FIFA Confederations Cup and used it against Spain this afternoon. A rousing 2-0 victory over the number one ranked team in the World should but those complaints to bed for the foreseeable future.
Almost all the statistics pointed toward Spanish dominance on the day. The FIFA game report had Spain down for 29 shots. Yes, you read that right, 29! How many actually ended up on frame? Eight.
Want another stat? How about seventeen corner kicks to three. To the shock of few, Spain held 56% percent of the possession in this contest and certainly held the edge in meaningful ownership of the ball. For all that work, what they couldn't do was produce quality chances when it counted. The US scored on both of their shots on goal.
The United States only committed nine fouls today to Spain's thirteen. That same old problem came up again though as Michael Bradley was ejected in the 87th minute for a supposed foul in the middle part of the field.
Replays seemed to show that Bradley went in low and may have even taken the ball with the challenge. Nonetheless referee Jorge Larrionda pulled out the red card and Bradley was gone. He will now miss the final on Sunday against either Brazil or South Africa.
You remember Larrionda right? He of officiating fame (or infamy) from World Cup 2006. To refresh your memory he was the match official for the United States epic 1-all draw with Italy that ended ten on nine after three red cards. He messed up again today. Luckily for the US it came late enough as not to effect the outcome.
Ref issues aside, the United States came out today and once again displayed the effort necessary to stick with Spain if nothing else. They did not show any early lapses in concentration that had been so backbreaking in recent matches. Focus from the start was always going to be paramount against a Spain team that likes to dictate the pace and possession early until they find a weak spot. Today, that kink in the armor never appeared.
As the old saying goes, goals change games and the US needed to score first today. Jozy Altidore duly obliged in the 25th minute with his first goal for the United States this tournament. The crucial tally was set up after neat interplay between Charlie Davies and Clint Dempsey. After swapping passes down the left side Dempsey played a deflected ball into Altidore near the top of the Spanish box.
The Villarreal forward was able to hold off and spin past club teammate Joan Capdevila before smashing an effort on goal. The shot wrong-footed Spanish goalkeeper Iker Casillas who was only able to palm the ball off of his right post and into the net.
If the power and strength of Altidore made the first for the US then the precision and patience of Benny Feilhaber created the second. Feilhaber dribbled through the Spanish defense with poise before slotting the ball out wide to Landon Donovan.
Donovan looked like he might shoot before sliding the ball across the box looking for a teammate to get on the end of it. Spain had a few chances to clear but failed to do so. Clint Dempsey was only too happy to punish their lackadaisicalness by stealing the ball off of Sergio Ramos and smashing the ball into the back of the net. Two nothing to the US and that was game, set, and match.
The Dempsey goal came in the 73rd minute, nearly fifty grueling minutes after Altidore's opening mark. The time in between was dominated by Spain who poked and prodded but could never find that killer move to unlock the United States defense.
The efforts of goalie Tim Howard and defenders Jonathan Spector, Oguchi Onyewu, and Jay Demerit alongside returning captain Carlos Bocanegra cannot be understated. Onyewu and Demerit in particular were immense once again in the center. Onyewu won everything in the air and DeMerit snuffed out most ground attacks.
Michael Bradley and Ricardo Clark were split by through balls from back to front more times then they would have liked, but chased and harried the likes of Xavi, Cesc Fabregas and Xabi Alonso nearly into submission. That said, with players like Fernando Torres and David Villa the Spanish were always going to have chances. Unfortunately for them, they were never able to make that vital breakthrough.
Desire and guts were words that were thrown around over the past week as traits that this US team did not possess. After Sunday against Egypt, those pundits and prognosticators should have quickly reconsidered. After Wednesday in Bloemfontein, they should be ashamed of themselves.
It's not always the best team that wins. Sometimes it's the team that just flat out wants it more. Today Landon Donovan and all the ground he covered wanted it more. Today Jay Demerit and his crunching, never let up tackles wanted it more. Today Clint Dempsey and all his flicks and look away passes and diving header determination wanted it more.
You know what? This US team just flat-out wanted it more than the World's number one and their efforts were rewarded with victory. Desire, heart and guts are just buzz words. Leaving it all out on the field and rightfully taking your triumph is what really matters. Today the United States did just that.

Good Inexpensive NAS drive
This review is from: Seagate STAM2000100 2TB GoFlex Home Network Storage System
Pros: 3 TB version large capacity
Cons: Have to figure a lot of things out on your own.
Other Thoughts: This is a great network drive that all of my network devices such as Dish Hopper recognize and can play music or watch video or view photos from anywhere in the world. Also have GoFlex app on my phone and can stream anywhere I have service. I have the 3 TB version of this drive and you can increase storage just by adding a USB drive to the USB input. You can even connect a USB hub and add multiple drives or a printer. Very versatile. Newegg sold out but amaz** still has them.

Solid and Quick
This review is from: Seagate STAM2000100 2TB GoFlex Home Network Storage System
Pros: I did not buy this for the NAS portion persay I droped another drive on the base. I pulled the drive and slapped it into my machine. The fastest mechanical hard disk in my rig. I have 2 of these drives and will get a third. 3 of these in raid 0 will most likely push well into the 400MB/s range. When copying from an SSD I see well into the 300MB/s realtime, not some benchmark.
Cons: None, still working like a champ.
Other Thoughts: Main O/S: Ultimate Edition Linux

Vastly Under-rated
This review is from: Seagate STAM2000100 2TB GoFlex Home Network Storage System
Pros: I don't normally rate items but when I saw the low eggs on this product I have to say that I've used mine for 2 or 3 years and find it fantastic. I use mine with a laser printer attached. I can access my data over the Internet from any computer or even my phone.
Cons: None really. I'm not sure if the current version are still USB 2.0 or not, if not 3.0 should be an upgrade.
Other Thoughts: A second USB port would be great allowing the user to add an additional drive and a printer (or two drives).

Easy to use
This review is from: Seagate STAM2000100 2TB GoFlex Home Network Storage System
Pros: Easy setup and works well over most networks.
Cons: Streaming media seemed to be a little choppy (a short pause ever 20 minutes or so) however this was not my main use. My network is good and even tried with a good 1GB enterprise class switch and still had some slowness with streaming.
Other Thoughts: After about a year i had no need for this so I installed ARCH Linux and customized it for fun there are some very neat things that can be done however you can also render the network dock useless with one wrong move (which i did). No worries, The 2TB hard drive inside of the plastic case is was removed and used as an internal drive for backups on my main PC.

Avoid it
This review is from: Seagate STAM2000100 2TB GoFlex Home Network Storage System
Pros: none really, since it constantly disconnects itself from my network or locks up.
Cons: the real issue with it is that it just won't stay connected to the network. It constantly locks up and I have to be power-cycling it for it to start responding again, and even then that rarely lasts the day. It is JUNK and I have totally stopped using it. 4 out of 5 times I need to access it over the network its not available. Even the seagate software that comes with it says "please connect the drive". Don't waste your money...find a NAS device that works.

Reliable and Extendable
This review is from: Seagate STAM2000100 2TB GoFlex Home Network Storage System
Pros: Very reliable. Owned for nearly 2 years now, and the drive has been running 24/7 except for between when the power goes out and I turn it back on. Thin Linux OS that is easy to gain root access and modify to your liking (additional/improved services, server protocols, transmission, etc.) Plus, it's prett cheap and has gigabit ethernet.
Cons: The DLNA server that comes with it is trash and needs to be replaced/updated out of the box. The actual Seagate interface through the web/android/etc is painfully slow compared to what you can do with a little modding (everything appears to initially route through Seagate servers nothing like cutting out the middle man to speed things up)
Other Thoughts: Think of this not so much as a complete product, but a cheap, power efficient, bare bones 2TB, 128MB ram, 1GHZ microserver. As long as you're not scared of a little command line work, walkthroughs are available for most of the mods/installs you'll want to do on the openstora.com wiki.

Good value for $; not perfect; SW incomplete
This review is from: Seagate STAM2000100 2TB GoFlex Home Network Storage System
Pros: Simple, cheap works well unattended after initial setup, USB port for printer and expanded storage. Only one USB port but you can attach a switch and plug in several items. It's a Linux device so a simple hack gives you direct access if you're so inclined. Don't know why others have had trouble, but it's worked fine for over year for me. It's a good device for simple home use and requires no technical knowledge. Also streams music and video. Caveat - it depends on your network - so if your network is slow and patchy, streaming won't go well.
Cons: Backup software is a nag version, constantly nagging you to buy more.

Does the job
This review is from: Seagate STAM2000100 2TB GoFlex Home Network Storage System
Pros: Plug in. It works.
Cons: Nice if could easily access linux system
Other Thoughts: Got it locally for even less then egg price -- that doesn't happen often. Will update review if problems develop. Didn't mess w the software, just looked up router IP assignment and used browser to set it up. Have better backup software to use and files are just drag and drop. Files for sharing might be easier w their software, but segateshare site lets you select what you share. Obviously if it dies soon, I will not be happy, but after reading a fair # of not so hot reviews, I am glad I took a shot. Buying local got me free of any RMA and shipping concerns

Seagate 2tb goflex
This review is from: Seagate STAM2000100 2TB GoFlex Home Network Storage System
Pros: none
Cons: The drive didn't spin up and was beeping. Checked software and with seagate. Read other reviews online you will find these drives fail all the time and mine was brand new and didn't work out of the box. I will not buy another seagate drive ever. I hardly ever review products but I had to say something about this since others had had problems and I decided to ignore their warnings. Read the reviews about this drive before buying

Protect against superbugs when travelling
BY Brian Johnston body+soul
Travelling overseas? Arm yourself against the latest superbug strains.
The latest superbug outbreak in Germany – a new strain of E. coli bacteria that has so far infected 2,400 people – isn't an isolated incident. New and more virulent superbugs, some of which are resistant to antibiotics, are springing up around the world, a reminder that we should be vigilant when travelling overseas.
Latest studies show that Australians are generally superbug free when heading overseas on holiday, but 50 per cent of us harbour superbugs when we return, and 25 per cent still carry them six months later.
Associate Professor Peter Collignon, Director of Infectious Diseases and Microbiology at Australian National University, says that about half of all E. coli in travellers returning from Asian countries such as China, India and Vietnam is resistant to most antibiotics.
"That really doesn't matter if you remain healthy," he says. "But it could be an issue if you get sick or have an invasive medical procedure. You should always tell your doctor about your travel history as well as your medical history."
The World Health Organisation recently issued a warning about NDM-1, another type of antibiotic-resistant E. coli that originated in India and can cause blood poisoning. Three cases have already appeared in Australia.
But while superbugs in food are more common in developing countries, even places such as the USA and Canada have higher rates than Australia. Meanwhile, those heading off to Germany over the next few months should keep up to date with the latest developments on the E. coli outbreak.
"German authorities are investigating the outbreak but have yet to determine the source," cautions the federal government's Smart Traveller advisory service. "In relation to food safety, travellers to Germany and other European countries should follow the advice of local authorities."
At the moment, that means avoiding bean sprouts, tomatoes, cucumbers, lettuce and other salad greens, as the outbreak may have originated on farms growing this produce.
"The authorities in Germany are actually saying that the numbers are starting to decrease, so we're hoping that things are better," says Dr Steve Hamilton, president of the Australian Medical Association. "But you've really got to think about whether fresh vegetables are properly washed and properly cooked, or perhaps leave them off the plate."
However, travellers should not be over paranoid. Not all superbugs are harmful to healthy adults, and we commonly carry E. coli in our digestive systems. Moreover, some simple behaviours while overseas – particularly in developing countries – can significantly reduce the risk of E. coli and other bacterial infections:
- Maintain good personal hygiene with frequent hand washing, especially before eating.
- Keep your mouth closed when swimming or showering to avoid swallowing water.
- Don't drink tap water and consider brushing your teeth with bottled water.
- Avoid ice cream and dairy products that may not be properly refrigerated.
- Make sure meat is thoroughly cooked.
- Don't eat raw vegetables and salads.
- Avoid lingering around people who are coughing or sneezing.
- Seek medical advice if you return from overseas with diarrhoea or another illness.
