Photubias - Thursday, September 09, 2010 - linkIf you view the article in 'Print Format' than it shows correctly.
Seems to be an Anandtech issue ... :p Reply
Ryan Smith - Thursday, September 09, 2010 - linkFixed. Thanks for the notice. Reply
yyrkoon - Friday, September 10, 2010 - linkHey guys, you've got to do better than this. The only thing that drew me to this article was the Name "SGI" and your explanation of their system is nothing.
Why not just come out and say . . " Hey, look what I've got pictures of". Thats about all the use I have for the "article". Sorry if you do not like that Johan, but the truth hurts. Reply
JohanAnandtech - Friday, September 10, 2010 - linkIt is clear that we do not focus on the typical SGI market. But you have noticed that from the other competitors and you know that HPC is not our main expertise, virtualization is. It is not really clear what your complaint is, so I assume that it is the lack of HPC benchmarks. Care to make your complaint a little more constructive? Reply
davegraham - Monday, September 13, 2010 - linki'll defend Johan here...SGI has basically cornered themselves into the cloud scale market place where their BTO-style of engagement has really allowed them to prosper. If you wanted a competitive story there, the Dell DCS series of servers (C6100, for example) would be a better comparison.

tech6 - Thursday, September 09, 2010 - linkWhile the 815 is great value where the host is CPU bound, most VM workloads seem to be memory limited rather than processing power. Another consideration is server (in particularly memory) longevity which is something where the 810 inherits the 910s RAS features while the 815 misses out.
I am not disagreeing with your conclusion that the 815 is great value but only if your workload is CPU bound and if you are willing to take the risk of not having RAS features in a data center application. Reply
JFAMD - Thursday, September 09, 2010 - linkTrue that there is a RAS difference, but you do have to weigh the budget differences and power differences to determine whether the RAS levels of either the R815 (or even a xeon 5600 system) are not sufficient for your application. Keep in mind that the xeon 7400 series did not have these RAS features, so if you were comfortable with the RAS levels of the 7400 series for these apps, then you have to question whether the new RAS features are a "must have". I am not saying that people shouldn't want more RAS (everyone should), but it is more a question of whether it is worth paying the extra price up front and the extra price every hour at the wall socket.
For virtualization, the last time I talked to the VM vendors about attach rate, they said that their attach rate to platform matched the market (i.e. ~75% of their software was landing on 2P systems). So in the case of virtualization you can move to the R815 and still enjoy the economics of the 2P world but get the scalability of the 4P products. Reply
tech6 - Thursday, September 09, 2010 - linkI don't disagree but the RAS issue also dictates the longevity of the platform. I have been in the hosting business for a while and we see memory errors bring down 2 year+ old HP blades in alarming numbers. If you budget for a 4 year life cycle, then RAS has to be high on your list of features to make that happen. Reply
mino - Thursday, September 09, 2010 - linkGenerally I would agree except that 2yr old HP blades (G5) are the worst way to ascertain commodity x86 platform reliability.
1) inadequate cooling setup (you better keep c7000 input air well below 20C at all costs)
2) FBDIMM love to overheat
3) G5 blade mobos are BIG MESS when it comes to memory compatibility => they clearly underestimated the tolerances needed
4) All the points above hold true at least compared to HS21* and except 1) also against bl465*
Speaking about 3yrs of operations of all three boxen in similar conditions. The most clear thi became to us when building power got cutoff and all our BladeSystems got dead within minutes (before running out of UPS by any means) while our 5yrs old BladeCenter (hosting all infrastructure services) remained online even at 35C (where the temp platoed thanks to dead HP's)
Ironically, thanks to the dead production we did not have to kill infrastructure at all as the UPS's lasted for the 3 hours needed easily ... Reply
Exelius - Thursday, September 09, 2010 - linkSo, the "product differentiators" from HP are because they primarily sell through partner channels. This is the model IBM used for years; and if you buy your ProLiants through an HP partner and not a mere reseller, they will know the product line and can configure the hardware however you want. HP does very well at making their servers extremely modular, but you do have to know how/where to find the part numbers. Often this information is not widely distributed outside of HP's partner sales trainings (which are very good.)
If you're used to the Dell model of sales, it doesn't make much sense. But because Dell sells directly, their policies for channel partners are stupid (the wholesale price for a channel partner is often higher than the retail price for a direct customer.) But because partners have more pricing and configuration flexibility from HP, the partner can often beat Dell's direct price with HP hardware (which IMO is higher quality than Dell anyway.) Dell doesn't want their partners to compete with their direct sales and HP doesn't want to jeopardize their partner relationships by pushing direct sales too hard.
There are pros and cons to each approach, and it all depends on how you handle your IT. If most of it is in-house, but you're not quite big enough to have an internal buyer who would take in the HP sales training, Dell makes a lot of sense because, well, it's easy to understand and most HP partners make their money off implementation services, not hardware sales. Dell is willing to work with you a little more. But if you look at companies where IT is not a core competency (regional insurance companies, banks, etc) a lot of them use consultants to do IT projects/maintenance and HP is making an absolute killing in this market. Reply
JohanAnandtech - Thursday, September 09, 2010 - linkinsightful and enlightening comment. Still, there is a point where extremely modular increases the complexity and price too much. The result is a slightly higher price (which is still acceptable, but sometimes also small configuration mistakes which cause extra delays. The result is significant higher cost. And this happens regularly as even trained people make mistakes. So my first impression is that HP should lower the complexity a bit. Reply
Exelius - Saturday, September 11, 2010 - linkTrue; but without a "direct sales" option they have no way to offer flexible configurations without having a different part number for every possible configuration. Most HP partners will simply use a sales quote tool to build server configurations (in fact; this is exactly what Dell does if you order through their sales reps, which is how you get the best prices.) Again though; HP partners are unlikely to give you a sweetheart deal unless you're buying implementation services from them as well. They make 5-10% on the hardware and 80-150% on the labor,
But I'll tell you now that HP was consistently able to beat Dell on price through channels over the last 5 years. IMO this is because Dell has the same sort of parts system internally; HP cuts costs by not bothering to make sense of it all and just pushing it off onto their resellers. They're pretty much not interested in selling direct to consumers because it's really just a small part of their business.
What's killed Dell's profits over the last few years has been that the economic troubles have pushed small/midsize companies to outsource their IT. The companies they outsource to are probably HP partners. Thus, when these companies need hardware, it's likely to be HP (used to be IBM as well; but IBM's support is pathetic and their prices are in the stratosphere.) Channel resellers are also used to dealing with complicated product lists (last I checked Symantec's product book had something like 25,000 individual SKUs) so it's probably not going to change. If anything, it's likely to get worse. For all the consumerization in IT, the enterprise side is only getting more complicated. I wouldn't try to spec a server from HP without at least being familiar with their product line and the options it offers. Reply
lorribot - Friday, September 10, 2010 - linkBeing a bit weird we buy Dell PCs (and a sprinkling of Macs) and HP servers.
The Dell PCs are cheap and do the job, initial sales calls are good and they will bust a gut on price but beyond that Dell are pretty much hopeless at support in the UK, with our sales manager changing 3 or 4 times a year and never refering any support calls to some else in the team w have never heard of before.
Our HP partner, however, is much more stable and they are generally knowledgeable and help configure servers accordingly though for the most part they are actually straight forward until some nutty developer wants 16 disks locally in an 580 g5. And we have a single point of contact for everything.
You pays your money and you takes your choice.
Did mention the next day or two (HP) versus 1 to 2 weeks (Dell) delivery options?
The draw full of 2 GB DDR3 RAM I have from our HP blades is very irritating, I wish HP would supply with out any RAM installed, it is such a waste. Reply

Stuka87 - Thursday, September 09, 2010 - linkGreat review, I love it when different platforms are compared to each other. Also happy to see AMD hold their own to the much lauded 7500 series Xeons in a market that I feel AMD is better suited for (VM Servers)
However, its possible I missed it, but was the price of the SGI system listed anywhere? It would have been nice to see the price of each system as configured side by side. Reply
vol7ron - Thursday, September 09, 2010 - linkPictures on Page 5-6 look delicious.
Nice article Reply
duploxxx - Thursday, September 09, 2010 - link"Comparing the dual with the quad Opteron 6174 power numbers, we notice a relatively high increase in power: 244 Watt. So for each Opteron that we add, we measure 122 W at the wall. This 122 W includes a few Watts of PSU losses, VRM and DIMM wiring losses. So the real power consumed by the processor is probably somewhere between 100 and 110W. Which is much closer to the TDP (115W) than the ACP (80W) of this CPU."
when the power draw test was done between 2 socket and 4 socket dell 815 did you remain with the same amount of dimms? so you divided the 2 socket amount in the 4 socket?
On the power draw calculation don't forget that you also have an additional SR5690 to account for which is 18W TDP, electronics etc, so I don't think it will be operating close to TDP but neither to ACP :)
btw a lot of mistakes with the HP 387G7 which should be 380G7 Reply
eanazag - Thursday, September 09, 2010 - linkThis is a strong article. Very helpful and most of us basically need to decide which customer we are and what matches our apps and usage requirements. Reply
JohanAnandtech - Friday, September 10, 2010 - linkThanks, appreciate you took the time to let us know. We went through 5 weeks of intensive testing and my eyes still hurt from looking at the countless excel sheets, with endless power and response time readings. ;-) Reply
FourthLiver - Thursday, September 09, 2010 - linkat the end of page 12, you allude to a performance per watt analysis. looks like you forgot to put it up. i'm chomping at the bit to see those numbers!
please disregard me if i failed to rtfa correctly. Anandtech is the best; your (all of you collectively) articles are brilliant and correct down to the smallest details. This is another article that was an absolute joy to read. :] Reply
JohanAnandtech - Thursday, September 09, 2010 - linkWell you can't really calculate it, as it depends on the situation. On low load loads, the system that consumes the less, is the winner, on the condition that the response times stay low. But of course, if your systems are running at low load all time, there might be something wrong: you should have bought more RAM and consolidated more VMs per system.
At higher loads, the power consumption at high load divided by the throughput (vApusmark) is close to the truth. But it is definitely not the performance/watt number for everyone
It depends on your workloads. The more critical processing power (think response time SLA) is, the more the last mentioned calculation makes sense. The more we are talking about lots of lightly loaded VMs (like authentification servers, fileservers etc.), the more simply looking at the energy consumed at page 12 make sense. Reply
mino - Thursday, September 09, 2010 - linkFirst, congratulations to a great article !
Now to the small ammount of mess in there:
"the CPUs consume more than the ACP ratings that AMD mentions everywhere"
1) Avegare CPU Power (ACP) is NOT supposed/marketed to represent 100% load power use
Wikipedia: "The average CPU power (ACP), is a scheme to characterize power consumption of new central processing units under "average" daily usage..."
2) 122W at the wall and 110W at the CPU ??? Are you telling us the PSU's are 95% along with VRM/power/fans at 95% efficiency ? (0.95*0.95*1.22=1.10)
. Sorry to spoil the party but that is NOT the case. 122W at wall means 100W at CPU at the most realistically 95W.
Otherwise a great work. Keep is up! Reply
JohanAnandtech - Friday, September 10, 2010 - link"1) Avegare CPU Power (ACP) is NOT supposed/marketed to represent 100% load power use
Wikipedia: "The average CPU power (ACP), is a scheme to characterize power consumption of new central processing units under "average" daily usage...""
You are right. But what value does it have? As an admin I want to know what the maximum could be realistically (TDP is the absolute maximum for non-micro periods) and if you read between the lines that is more or less what AMD communicated (see their white paper). if it is purely "average", it has no meaning, because average power can be a quite a bit lower as some servers will run at 30% on average, others at 60%.
These PSU are supposed to be 92-94% efficient and AFAIK the VRMs are at least 90% efficient. So 122 x 0.92 x 0.90 = 101 W. Reply
mino - Saturday, September 11, 2010 - linkWell, I was bit unslept when writing it but anyway. So got a bit harser than should have.
In my experience the ACP values pretty well represent your average loaded server (<= 80% load). But that is not the point.
AMD created ACP in a response to the fact that their TDP numbers are conservative while Intel's are optimistic. That was the main cause wery well known to you as well.
Call me an ass but I certainly do not remember AT bitching about Intel TDPs no bein representative (during last 6 years at least).
And we all know too well that those NEVER represented the real power use of their boxen nor did they EVER represented what the "TDP" moniker stands for.
Currently the situation is as such that identical 2P AMD box with 80W ACP has ~ the same power requirements as 2P Intel box with 80W TDP. You have just proven that.
Therefore I believe it would be fair to stop bitching about AMD (or Intel) cheating in marketing (both do) and just say whether the numbers are comparable or not.
Arguing about spin wattage is not really needed. Reply
JohanAnandtech - Monday, September 13, 2010 - link"Arguing about spin wattage is not really needed. "
I have to disagree. The usual slogan is "don't look at TDP, look at measurements". What measurments? The totally unrealistic SPECpower numbers?
It is impossible for review sites to test all CPUs. So it is up to vendors to gives us a number that does not have to be accurate on a few percent, but that let us select CPUs quickly.
Customers should have one number that allows them to calculate worst case numbers which are realistic (heavily load webserver for example, not a thermal virus). So all CPU vendors should agree on a standard. That is not bitching, but is a real need of the sysadmins out there. Reply
mino - Thursday, September 09, 2010 - linkOne thing I would love to see is having the lowest end HP server put to its paces.
So far it seems to us a the best option for vCenter hosting in small environments (with FT Vm's hosting vCenter).
Maybe even run 1-tile vAPUS (v1? perhaps) on it ? Reply
m3rdpwr - Thursday, September 09, 2010 - linkI would have prepared to have had the DL385 G7 compared.
They can be had with 8 and 12 core CPU's.
We have close to 200 HP servers of all models, rack and blades.
Many running vm in our Data Center.

duploxxx - Friday, September 10, 2010 - linksame here, we moved also to 385g7 with the new 8-12core cpu's, Nice servers with huge core count since we never run more vCPU then pCPU in a system. Dell 815 looks like a good solution also, it was mentioned in the review the BL685 and DL585 are way more expensive. Reply

ESetter - Friday, September 10, 2010 - linkGreat article. I suggest to include some HPC benchmarks other than STREAM. For instance, DGEMM performance would be interesting (using MKL and ACML for Intel and AMD platforms). Reply
mattshwink - Friday, September 10, 2010 - linkOne thing I would like to point out is that most of the customers I work with use VMWare in an enterprise scenario. Failover/HA is usually a large issue. As such we usually create (or at least recommend) VMWare clusters with 2 or 3 nodes. As such each node is limited to roughly 40% usage (memory/CPU) so that if a failure occurs there is minimal/0 service disruption. So we usually don't run highly loaded ESX hosts. So the 40% load numbers are the most interesting. Good article and lots to think about when deploying these systems.... Reply
lorribot - Friday, September 10, 2010 - linkIt would be nice to see some comparisons of blade systems in a similar vein to this article.
Also you say that one system is better at say DBs whilst the the other is better at VMware, what about if you are running say a SQL database on a VMware platform? Which one would be best for that? How much does the application you are running in the VM affect the comparative performance figures you produce? Reply
spinning rust - Saturday, September 11, 2010 - linkis it really a question, anyone who has used both DRAC and ILO knows who wins. everyone at my current company has a tear come to their eyes when we remember ILO. over 4 years of supporting Proliants vs 1 year of Dell, i've had more hw problems with Dell. i've never before seen firmware brick a server, but they did it with a 2850, the answer, new motherboard. yay! Reply
pablo906 - Saturday, September 11, 2010 - linkThis article should be renamed servers clash, finding alternatives to the Intel architecture. Yes it's slightly overpriced but it's extremely well put together. Only in the last few months has the 12c Opteron become an option. It's surprising you can build Dell 815's with four 71xx series and 10GB Nics for under a down payment on a house. This was not the case recently. It's a good article but it's clearly aimed to show that you can have great AMD alternatives for a bit more. The most interesting part of the article was how well AMD competed against a much more expensive 7500 series Xeon server. I enjoyed the article it was informative but the showdown style format was simply wrong for the content. Servers aren't commodity computers like desktops. They are aimed at a different type of user and I don't think that showdowns of vastly dissimilar hardware, from different price points and performance points, serve to inform IT Pros of anything they didn't already know. Spend more money for more power and spend it wisely...... Reply
echtogammut - Saturday, September 11, 2010 - linkFirst off, I am glad that Anandtech is reviewing server systems, however I came away with more questions than answers after reading this article.
First off, please test comparable systems. Your system specs were all over the board and there were way to many variables that can effect performance for any relevant data to be extracted from your tests.
Second, HP, SGI and Dell will configure your system to spec... i.e. use 4GB dimms, drives, etcetera if you call them. However something that should be noted is that HP memory must be replaced with HP memory, something that is an important in making a purchase. HP, puts a "thermal sensor" on their dimms, that forces you to buy their overpriced memory (also the reason they will use 1GB dimms, unless you spec otherwise).
Third, if this is going to be a comparison, between three manufactures offerings, compare those offerings. I came away feeling I should buy an IBM system (which wasn't even "reviewed")
Lastly read the critiques others have written here, most a very valid. Reply
JohanAnandtech - Monday, September 13, 2010 - link"First off, please test comparable systems."
I can not agree with this. I have noticed too many times that sysadmins make the decision to go for a certain system too early, relying too much on past experiences. The choice for "quad socket rack" or "dual socket blade" should not be made because you are used to deal with these servers or because your partner pushes you in that direction.
Just imagine that the quad Xeon 7500 would have done very well in the power department. Too many people would never consider them because they are not used to buy higher end systems. So they would populate a rack full of blades and lose the RAS, scalability and performance advantages.
I am not saying that this gutfeeling is wrong most of the time, but I am advocating to keep an open mind. So the comparison of very different servers that can all do the job is definitely relevant. Reply
pablo906 - Saturday, September 11, 2010 - linkThese VMWare benchmarks are worthless. I've been digesting this for a long long time and just had a light bulb moment when re-reading the review. You run highly loaded Hypervisors. NOONE does this in the Enterprise space. To make sure I'm not crazy I just called several other IT folks who work in large (read 500+ users minimum most in the thousands) and they all run at <50% load on each server to allow for failure. I personally run my servers at 60% load and prefer running more servers to distribute I/O than running less servers to consolidate heavily. With 3-5 servers I can really fine tune the storage subsystem to remove I/O bottlenecks from both the interface and disk subsystem. I understand that testing server hardware is difficult especially from a Virtualization standpoint, and I can't readily offer up better solutions to what you're trying to accomplish all I can say is that there need to be more hypervisors tested and some thought about workloads would go a long way. Testing a standard business on Windows setup would be informative. This would be an SQL Server, an Exchange Server, a Share Point server, two DC's, and 100 users. I think every server I've ever seen tested here is complete overkill for that workload but that's an extremely common workload. A remote environment such as TS or Citrix is another very common use of virtualization. The OS craps out long before hardware does when running many users concurrently in a remote environment. Spinning up many relatively weak VM's is perfect for this kind of workload. High performance Oracle environments are exactly what's being virtualized in the Server world yet it's one of your premier benchmarks. I've never seen a production high load Oracle environment that wasn't running on some kind of physical cluster with fancy storage. Just my 2 cents. Reply

JohanAnandtech - Monday, September 13, 2010 - link"You run highly loaded Hypervisors. NOONE does this in the Enterprise space."
I agree. Isn't that what I am saying on page 12:
"In the real world you do not run your virtualized servers at their maximum just to measure the potential performance. Neither do they run idle."
The only reason why we run with highly loaded hypervisors is to measure the peak throughput of the platform. Like VMmark. We know that is not realworld, and does not give you a complete picture. That is exactly the reason why there is a page 12 and 13 in this article. Did you miss those? Reply

Great work and looking forward to more of these types of reviews! Reply
lonnys - Monday, September 20, 2010 - linkJohan -
You note for the R815:
Make sure you populate at least 32 DIMMs, as bandwidth takes a dive at lower DIMM counts.
Could you elaborate on this? We have a R815 with 16x2GB and not seeing the expected performance for our very CPU intensive app perhaps adding another 16x2GB might help Reply
JohanAnandtech - Tuesday, September 21, 2010 - linkThis comment you quoted was written in the summary of the quad Xeon box.
16 DIMMs is enough for the R815 on the condition that you have one DIMM in each channel. Maybe you are placing the DIMMs wrongly? (Two DIMMs in one channel, zero DIMM in the other?) Reply
anon1234 - Sunday, October 24, 2010 - linkI've been looking around for some results comparing maxed-out servers but I am not finding any.
The Xeon 5600 platform clocks the memory down to 800MHz whenever 3 dimms per channel are used, and I believe in some/all cases the full 1066/1333MHz speed (depends on model) is only available when 1 dimm per channel is used. This could be huge compared with an AMD 6100 solution at 1333MHz all the time, or a Xeon 7560 system at 1066 all the time (although some vendors clock down to 978MHz with some systems - IBM HX5 for example). I don't know if this makes a real-world difference on typical virtualization workloads, but it's hard to say because the reviewers rarely try it.
It does make me wonder about your 15-dimm 5600 system, 3 dimms per channel @800MHz on one processor with 2 DPC @ full speed on the other. Would it have done even better with a balanced memory config?
I realize you're trying to compare like to like, but if you're going to present price/performance and power/performance ratios you might want to consider how these numbers are affected if I have to use slower 16GB dimms to get the memory density I want, or if I have to buy 2x as many VMware licenses or Windows Datacenter processor licenses because I've purchased 2x as many 5600-series machines. Reply
nightowl - Tuesday, March 29, 2011 - linkThe previous post is correct in that the Xeon 5600 memory configuration is flawed. You are running the processor in a degraded state 1 due to the unbalanced memory configuration as well as the differing memory speeds.
The Xeon 5600 processors can run at 1333MHz (with the correct DIMMs) with up to 4 ranks per channel. Going above this results in the memory speed clocking down to 800MHz which does result in a performance drop to the applications being run. Reply
markabs - Friday, June 08, 2012 - linkHi there,
I know this is an old post but I'm looking at putting 4 SSDs in a Dell poweredge and had a question for you.
What raid card did you use with the above setup?
Currently a new Dell poweredge R510 comes with a PERC H700 raid card with 1GB cache and this is connect to a hot swap chassis. Dell want £1500 per SSD (crazy!) so I'm looking to buy 4 intel 520s and setup them up in raid 10.
I just wanted to know what raid card you used and if you had a trouble with it and what raid setup you used?
many thanks.

In this week's episode of Hook, Line & Dinner, I'm heading down to Islamorada, FL — the Sport Fishing Capital of the World. I'm not after just one type of fish; I'm trying to catch them all.
The key to cooking your fresh-out-of-the-water fish is to keep it light, simple and whatever you do, don't over cook. A lot of resorts and charter companies with fishing programs offer it up as "catch and cook". You do the catching, they'll take care of the cooking. In most cases, I wouldn't let them near my fish. They don't often follow the aforementioned keys to cooking great fresh fish. The fish ends up tasting like it came from a freezer, or it comes out drowning in a thick, gloopy sauce that masks its fresh flavor.
This is not the case at Lazy Days in Islamorada, Florida. Chef Lupe has been cooking fish at this restaurant for years, and transitioned from busboy to the proud owner.
"If I didn't learn how to cook fish after all these years and all this hard work, it would have been a waste of time!" Lupe says.
Lupe understands and appreciates Florida fish better than anyone I've met, and can get a customer to try a fish they otherwise would disregard. As a fisherman, he also knows the pride that comes with bringing in a catch. He sticks to the principles of cooking fresh fish, and he did up my mackerel as good as any I have ever had. I had my doubts when I saw him loading slices of Provelone cheese on my fillet!
"Islamorada-style! You will like it," he said proudly.
Islamorada-style fishing is basically fishing on steroids. The actual fishing leaves you physically wiped out. I had veins popping out of my head during most of the episode as I tried to reel in 1500-2000 feet of line. What you don't see, though, is the 2-hour battles that would end with the fish winning. Never had I ever worked so hard to finally, in the last 5 minutes of battle, have my line go completely slack.
That's how it goes out here. You want to scream with frustration but are so tired, you can't.
Recipes in this Episode
- Grilled Swordfish with Candied Shallot and Sundried Tomato Beurre Blanc
- King Mackerel Islamorada-Style
Tune in to Hook, Line & Dinner tonight at 8pm ET to get a taste of all the fish Islamorada has to offer.

Just 10 large commercial ag companies control the majority of what Americans eat, according to the website of a company called AgLocal. This startup out of Kansas City, Mo., would like to counteract that trend of concentration in the food supply — and give some power back to the smaller players — with the help of the Internet, by o_ ering small farmers, distributors and restaurants a new way to buy and sell meat online.
"AgLocal was started to combat these very statistics that threaten American family farms, with the use of our software platform," according to the company website. "AgLocal wants consumers to understand what they eat, where it comes from and teach consumers how they can support these family farms. Every time you sit down at an AgLocal restaurant, you are directly supporting the family farms that the restaurant uses AgLocal to purchase from."
AgLocal cofounder Naithan Jones said he launched the company because he wanted to give consumers that power to direct their support, according to the website TechCrunch. Frustrated that he couldn't find a way to buy what he calls "responsibly raised" local meats (humanely raised, and with no hormones or antibiotics), he started thinking about the existing distribution system and whether it was allowing him to get the best meat products at the best prices — and how he might use the Internet to disrupt and improve that system.
After deciding that connecting consumers and farmers directly was not practical or scalable, he went up to the next level of meat buyers: distributors and restaurants. He created AgLocal so they could buy meats directly from farmers and ranchers in the quantities they need and on a regular schedule. Purchasers can see at a glance who has what, order what they need and pay for it with a few clicks.
Farmers on AgLocal, which offers a web-based service as well as apps for Apple and Android, have the opportunity to list the meat they have for sale and the minimum purchase required to ship an order. They can, and are encouraged to, post photos of their operations as well as descriptions of their production practices.
AgLocal earns its money on both sides of the transaction, taking a 4 percent cut from the farmers who list their meat and another 4 percent from the purchaser. So far, about 100 farms and ranches have signed on, according to fastcompany. com, but these are still early days. The site just launched earlier this year, with some powerful support behind it: $1 million in startup funding from various venture capital investors, and clothing company Carhartt also is pitching in a sponsorship.
The company's goal is not just to help small farmers and ranchers get better prices and stay in business — though that is a part of its intention — but to participate in, and even help facilitate, the larger shift of consumer preference toward "responsibly raised" meat. According to a recent American Meat Institute survey of American consumers, they are on the right side of the trend: Survey results showed that the natural and organic category continues to grow, and the future for the category looks bright.

Current Management of Depression in Cancer Patients
Current Management of Depression in Cancer Patients
In their paper, Schwartz and colleagues review the risk factors for
depression and suicide in patients with cancer and argue convincingly that
screening for depression can be simply and quickly performed. They also
delineate the efficacy and potential adverse effects of psychotherapeutic or
psychopharmacologic treatments for these patients. Buttressing the
identification and treatment of depression in the cancer patient are vital,
ongoing scientific developments that flow from an increased understanding of
interactions among the brain, endocrine system, and immune system. This rapidly
evolving body of neurobiological knowledge has catalyzed fundamental changes in
how we conceptualize depression in cancer patients and has important
ramifications regarding the treatment and prevention of depressive syndromes in
this setting.
HPA Axis Hyperactivity
Indeed, recent advances in biological psychiatry have included discoveries of
neurochemical, neuroendocrine, and neuroanatomic alterations in patients with
major depression. Such findings include hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis
hyperactivity, alterations of the hypothalamic-pituitary-thyroid axis,
diminished serotonergic neurotransmission, structural and functional brain
abnormalities, impaired sleep architecture, and activation of the immune
Although few of these biological alterations have been systematically
investigated in medically ill patients, certain effects have been observed in
cancer patients with comorbid depressionnotably hyperactivity of the
hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis,[2-4] as manifested by nonsuppression
of plasma cortisol concentrations following dexamethasone administration, and
increased immune activity, as manifested by elevated levels of proinflammatory
cytokines [4].
HPA axis hyperactivity in patients with cancer and comorbid depression is
likely due, at least in part, to central nervous system (CNS) hypersecretion of
corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF). The preeminent CNS stress hormone, CRF is
located in neurons both inside and outside the hypothalamus. Within the
hypothalamus, CRF-containing neurons that project from the paraventricular
nucleus to the median eminence[5] control the secretion of adrenocorticotropic
hormone (ACTH) and beta-endorphin from the anterior pituitary[6]; ACTH, in turn,
stimulates cortisol secretion from the adrenal cortex. In addition to its
neuroendocrine role in extrahypothalamic circuits throughout the nervous system,
CRF also coordinates behavioral, autonomic, and immune responses to stress.
Whether HPA axis hyperactivity (and other neurochemical/neuroendocrine
perturbations) influences immune function, cancer progression, and survival is
currently a matter of intense scrutiny and debate. Spiegel and colleagues have
recently documented that women with metastatic breast cancer who exhibit a
reduced diurnal variability in cortisol secretion have not only diminished
natural killer cell function, but also increased mortality over a 6-year
follow-up period.[7]

The U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) agency is displaying the Guardian, a maritime variant of the MQ-9 Predator B unmanned aircraft system (UAS) at the Paris Air Show. CBP acquired the UAS, manufactured by General Atomics Aeronautical Systems of Poway, California, to enhance the agency's long-range maritime surveillance, detection and targeting capabilities in the Eastern Pacific, Caribbean and Gulf of Mexico, as well as to support anti-terror efforts along maritime smuggling routes.
The Guardian began operational testing and evaluation at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in February 2010 and began conducting missions in April. CBP currently has five Predator B and two Guardian aircraft operating from strategic locations in the U.S. Two additional Predator Bs are scheduled for delivery by December and the third Guardian by early 2012.
Since its inception, the CBP Office of Air and Marine UAS program has flown more than 10,000 hours responding to requests for support from CBP ground agents and for emergency response and disaster support by state governments and the Federal Emergency Management Agency.

HOUSTON - There's a rodeo competition designed for up-and-coming cowboys and cowgirls: mutton bustin'.
About 1,500 children signed up for mutton bustin' this year. About 300 contestants, all 5 and 6 years old, were chosen by lottery to compete.
Mia McCloskey, 6, is a veteran of the event. She had a big ride at last year's rodeo.
"It was really fun," she said. "My mom told me to hand on tight and when I was done, I told my dad that I took that sheep down."
Mia is a fierce competitor.
"I'm going to hold on and I'm going to win," she said."
Mia's mom said her daughter has been in training, just like any good athlete.
"She's ridden her daddy around the den about 14 times," Michelle McCloskey said.
McCloskey said Mia and other little wranglers live for this.
"That's their five minutes of fame," she said. "They love it. They absolutely love it."
Mia was first up of 15 contestants and had a good ride. Her parents wonder what's next.
"She says she wants to ride a bull next," McCloskey said.
At the tender age of 6, Mia appears to be unstoppable. It's the bulls who better be careful.

Integrating Genetics and Genomics Into Oncology Nursing
Integrating Genetics and Genomics Into Oncology Nursing
Genetic and genomic research is creating new and more individualized approaches to better manage a person's disease or predisposition to disease, including cancer. This approach to healthcare is called personalized healthcare.[1] These discoveries have important implications for oncology nursing practice throughout the cancer care continuum. This continuum encompasses primary prevention, screening, diagnosis, treatment, survivorship, recurrence, and progression through the end of life.[2] In recognition of the expanding role of genetics and genomics in nursing practice, the Essentials of Genetic and Genomic Nursing was first published in 2006 by an independent consensus panel of nursing professionals. It is now in its second edition.[3] Using the Essentials of Genetic and Genomic Nursing as a basis, this article provides an overview of where and how oncology nurses will be or already are integrating genetics, genomics, and personalized healthcare into their daily practice.
Genetic/Genomic Research and Understanding Cancer
In 2003, an international research effort to sequence the entire genome of human beings, called the Human Genome Project (HGP), was completed. The completion of the HGP has opened doors for scientists to understand more about the role of genes in health and disease.[4] Genes, units of hereditary information located at specific positions in a chromosome, code for proteins that contribute to particular characteristics or functions. For example, genes play a role in 9 of the 10 leading causes of death in the United States, including cancer.[4]
Genetics investigations have traditionally involved assessment of how single genes influence relatively rare, single-gene disorders. Studies of the human genome are leading to greater knowledge of the ways in which genes interact with each other and with the environment, helping to improve health and prevent disease.[5] This new focus of research, genomics, involves all genes in the human genome and their interactions with each other, the environment, and cultural and psychosocial factors.[6] Table 1 provides more information and resources on genetics and genomics, and their roles in health and disease.
One approach to learning about the genetics of common, complex disorders is known as a genome-wide association study (GWAS). A GWAS uses rapidly scanning markers across the genomes of many people to identify genetic variations that are associated with a specific disease. The GWAS allows scientists to find the common genetic changes that contribute to small increases in disease risk.[7] When the genetic associations are located, researchers can use the information to develop better ways to prevent, diagnose, and treat disease. GWAS approaches have been very helpful in finding genetic variations that contribute to common, complex diseases such as diabetes, heart disease, mental illness, and cancer.

HILTON HEAD, S.C. – Saint Leo senior attackman George Proechel notched six goals and an assist on Sunday afternoon, becoming the program's all-time leader in career goals, but the Saint Leo men's lacrosse team fell to Mars Hill in a last-second heartbreaker, 15-14 on Sunday afternoon in Hilton Head, S.C. The Lions conclude their regular season with a mark of 8-6, while Mars Hill advances their record to 10-3.
Proechel entered into the game with 109 career goals, tied with Benjamin Brigham (2006-09), and with his first goal of the game secured his place atop of the leaderboard. Proechel now holds the top slot in goals (115), assists (58), and overall points (173).
Adding to the scoreboard on the day were Chris Caiazza with a hat trick and two assists, and Matt Obermeyer with two goals and an assist. Freshman Dylan Yonts notched four points on the day with a goal and three assists, while Chad Marino tallied a goal and assist for a two point game. Luke Stiebe scored the Lions' final goal, while Miles Britton had a two-assist game. Kevin Hutchinson and Tom Horn rounded out the scoring efforts for Saint Leo with an assist apiece.
In goal for Saint Leo, freshman Dave Moore made a total of 15 saves while facing 42 shots and 30 shots on goal. Patrick McMahon earned the win for Mars Hill, making 11 saves in 59 minutes of play between the pipes.
Mars Hill was led by Jimmy McBride, with a game high seven goals and two assists, as a total of seven players helped put points on the board for Mars Hill.
Mars Hill controlled in the first 10 minutes, pulling out to a 3-0 lead with 4:43 left in the quarter. Proechel put the Lions on the scoreboard eight seconds later off of an assist from Britton, but Mars Hill fought back and tallied the final goal of the first quarter six seconds later to close out the first quarter with a score of 4-1.
Saint Leo opened the second stanza with a goal just eight seconds into the game thanks to Obermeyer scoring off of a Caiazza assist. Proechel then pulled the Lions to within one of Mars Hill at the 12:23 mark on an unassisted man-up goal to set the score at 4-3, but Mars Hill fired off two straight to pull out to a 6-3 lead with 8:19 to go before the half.
Yonts scored at the 5:44 mark off of a Britton assist to pull the Lions to within two, 6-4, but Mars Hill answered back with a goal from McBride to pull ahead, 7-4. Caiazza answered back two minutes later with a goal off of an assist from Proechel with 2:18 left before the break, closing out the first half with a score of 7-5 in favor of Mars Hill.
MHC came out of the break on fired, firing off three goals in the opening minute and a half to extend their advantage to 10-5, but Saint Leo was not about to back down. Proechel grabbed a pass from Marino at the 12:29 mark, setting the score at 10-6 and igniting a scoring streak that pulled the Lions back into contention with Stiebe collecting a pass from Yonts on a fast break for the game-tying goal with 1:22 left in the third period.
Saint Leo rattled off two more goals on man-up situatios to open the fourth quarter, pulling out to their first lead of the game with a score of 12-10 with 14:05 to go in the game, but Mars Hill answered back with two of their own to knot the score at 12-12 with 12:15 on the clock.
Five minutes expired off the clock before either team could capitalize on an attacking opportunity, but Proechel broke the silence with a goal from a Caiazza assist at the 7:49 mark to pull the Lions ahead 13-12.
Mars Hill bit back a minute later to even the tally at 13-13 with 6:13 left in the game, but Obermeyer gave Saint Leo the upper hand 32 seconds later on an unassisted goal. Despite the Lions' best defensive efforts, McBride scored the fourth game-tying goal of the contest, pulling Mars Hill even with Saint Leo with a score of 14-14 and 1:06 remaining in the game.
Saint Leo had the opportunity to strike and fired off a few quick shots as the final minute ticked down, but Mars Hill capitalized on one final trip down the field as McBride found the back of the net with just 14 seconds left in the game, earning the game-winner.
Saint Leo led the save count 15-11, but trailed on the ground ball count 32-27. The Green and Gold was successful on 20-of-22 clear attempts, while holding Mars Hill to just 16 successful clears on 26 attempts. Saint Leo won 11-of-29 faceoff attempts, led by Robert Hutchinson who won 9-of-23. The Lions capitalized on 5-of-8 extra man opportunities, while a staunch man-down defense held Mars Hill to just one goal on six man-up situations.
The Lions conclude their 2013 regular season campaign, and set their sights on 2014. Fans can stay up-to-date on the latest news, updates, and information on the Saint Leo men's lacrosse team by visiting SaintLeoLions.com.

Summer is just around the corner and that means more kids will be out of school and exposed to one of the leading causes of injury and death -- water.
According to the American Journal of Public Health, 75 percent of drowning victims are African-Americans or Islanders.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention the fatal drowning rate of African-American children between the ages of 5 years old to 14 years old is three times that of white children in the same age range.
CDC researchers say physical environment and a combination of social and cultural issues factor into that increased risk.
Although her family hails from the island of Antigua, Sharonlyn Osouna said no one in her family knew how to swim. After facing the fear of lessons at the age of 12, Osouna decided her children would begin early.
Daughter Aaleyah is barely 2 years old.
"I have that peace of mind of knowing that when she's around water, she's going to be OK" said Osouna.
For information about swimming lessons, contact the YMCA of Greater Houston.

Cloning Is No Evidence For Evolution
The fact that such a question as whether such a scientific advance as cloning "supports evolution" is asked or even comes to mind actually reveals a very important truth. This is the cheapness of the propaganda that evolutionists resort to to get people to accept their theory. Since the subject of cloning has nothing to do with the theory of evolution, it cannot be a matter of concern for any professional evolutionist. However, some of those who blindly support evolution at whatever cost, and particularly certain circles within media organizations, have even tried to turn such a totally unconnected matter as cloning into propaganda for evolution.
What Does Cloning A Living Thing Mean?
The DNA of the living thing that is proposed to be copied is used in the cloning process. The DNA is extracted from any cell belonging to the organism in question, and then placed into an egg cell belonging to another organism of the same species. A shock is then given immediately afterwards, which prompts the egg cell to start dividing. The embryo is then placed into a living thing's womb, where it continues to divide. Scientists then await its development and birth.
Why Has Cloning Nothing To Do With Evolution?
The concepts of cloning and evolution are completely different. The theory of evolution is built on the claim that inanimate matter turned into living matter by chance. (There is not the slightest scientific proof that this could actually happen.) Cloning, on the other hand, is the copying of a living thing by using genetic material from that creature's cells. The new organism starts from a single cell, and a biological process is transferred to the laboratory and repeated there. In other words, there is no question of such a process happening by "chance"—the basic claim of the theory of evolution—nor of "lifeless matter coming to life."
The cloning process is no evidence for evolution whatsoever. It is, however, clear evidence of a biological law that totally undermines evolution. That is the famous principle that "Life can only come from life," put forward by the famous scientist Louis Pasteur towards the end of the nineteenth century. The fact that cloning is presented as evidence for evolution, despite that open truth, is a deception being carried out by the media.
Advances in many branches of science over the last 30 years have demonstrated that the emergence of life cannot be explained in terms of chance. Evolutionists' scientific errors and one-sided comments have been well-documented, and the theory of evolution has become indefensible within the realm of science. This fact has propelled some evolutionists to look in other areas. That is why scientific advances such as "cloning," or "test-tube babies," have been so fanatically used as evidence for evolution in the recent past.
Evolutionists have nothing more to say to society in the name of science, and so take refuge in the gaps in people's scientific knowledge and try to prolong the theory's life in that way, even though that merely brings the theory to a pitiable state. Just like all other scientific advances, cloning is a very important and revealing scientific advance that also sheds light on the fact that life was created.
Many people who do not fully understand what cloning is have all kinds of fantastic ideas about it. For instance, they imagine that a cell can be taken from a 30-year-old man and another 30-year-old can be created that same day. Such an example of cloning is only to be found in science fiction, and is not and never will be possible. Cloning basically consists of bringing a person's "identical twin" to life by natural methods (in other words in a mother's womb).This has nothing to do with the theory of evolution, nor with the concept of "creating man."
Creating a human being or any other living thing—in other words bringing something into existence out of nothing—is a power peculiar to God. Scientific advances confirm the same thing by showing that this creation cannot be done by man. This is expressed in a verse:
The Originator of the heavens and Earth. When He decides on something, He just says to it, "Be!" and it is. (Qur'an, Surah Al-Baqara, 117)

Put on your party hat and say hello to Pepperidge Farm's birthday present to itself: a pair of frozen cookie cakes. To celebrate its 75th anniversary of baking up some of America's favorite treats, Pepperidge Farm is releasing many new products. But it was these special cookie cakes that caught our attention.
Is it a cookie, or is it a cake?! And will it measure up to that childhood classic from Mrs. Debbie You-Know-Who? We snagged a box of the Chocolate Chunk Cookie Cake to find out:
This colossal dessert, "a two-layer moist cake with real chocolate chunks and rich chocolate icing and topped with chocolate chunk cookie pieces," promises to "deliver a premium frozen dessert experience." Whoa.
The name and box reminded us of the beloved Nantucket Chocolate Chunk Cookies. Since we like our cookies and cake with a tall glass of milk (and Nantucket Cookies are prime dunking candidates), we were convinced this was the cake to try over the Milano variety (those who have dunked a Milano to disappointing results know what I'm talking about).
The cake is everything it promises: chocolatey, moist, and rich. However, since the cake was thawed from frozen (as the box instructs), the whole cake had a slightly icy mouthfeel, resulting in diluted flavors. We liked the frosting the most, since it didn't succumb to sogginess like the cake layers and cookie crumbles. The cake will hit stores this month priced around $6.59 and serves 6-8, generously. It is certainly more cake than cookie and a much lighter dessert than the blondie-like, dense Mrs. Fields cookie cake. If cake is your go-to dessert, this cookie cake is for you.

The National Association of Social Workers is pleased to announce the 2014 Social Work Month theme: "All People Matter."
We selected this year's theme and logo to help raise awareness about the American social work profession's 116-year commitment to improving social conditions and quality of life opportunities for everyone. Social workers across the globe believe that all people have dignity and deserve respect.
NASW's goal for Social Work Month 2014 is to educate the public about how these values are essential to improving relationships within families, making social support systems more effective, and building stronger communities.
Did you know?
- The American social work profession was established in the late 19th century to ensure that immigrants and other vulnerable people gained tools and skills to escape economic and social poverty.

Hi Friends!I have a problem, i can not edit WordPress theme how to edit WordPress theme? Please help me..........
You can either edit your theme from your wordpress backend (by logging in and editing via your theme's settings or vai appearance). Alternatively, you can edit the theme in a code editor outside of Wordpress and upload the file to the location it was in when you found it.Here is more info on editing files from Wordpress,
Hope that answers your question,
Before editing a WordPress theme you would find it useful to understand how it works. Because it is a dynamic site components of the final page are called from numerous sources. It uses a template system that can be helpful for managing your content too.
Use the WordPress Codex to checkout theme development, template hierarchy and child-themes
Problem to edit theme in wordpress Editor?? if yes then download page whatever you want to edit in local and then submit to server again. Hope this will help you and hope i have explained you with understandable language. Thanks...
Hello - which part of the theme do you want to edit? you can access all the php files and the css via the editor in appearance, but it might not be necessary. Is it an off the shelf comercial theme you are using?
WordPress contains two built-in editors that allows you to edit Theme files directly from within your browser. But if you are in trouble than you may Access the Theme Editor from the Administration > Appearance > Editor menu. or the alternative way to edit the wordpress theme you may find the Plugin Editor is located at Administration > Plugins > Editor.
As our friends said there is a several ways to edit a theme... i think the best way is to do that Locally ! you can check this article about how to do : How to Install Wordpress Locally Then you can check your theme before uploading it....
I think it's the best way!

An Otley man hurled abuse at police officers before spitting at them "like Spit the Dog".
Andrew Matthews, 50, was arrested outside Skipton library on a busy Saturday afternoon in September after refusing to leave, Skipton Magistrates' Court heard on Monday.
Police had been called to the library after Matthews, who denied resisting arrest, had argued with staff about its policy of renewing books, upsetting people inside.
His behaviour on the High Street, witnessed by several passers-by including those sitting at a market coffee bar, caused one woman to shake with shock and another to have to sit down.
PCs Jon Stubbs and Tim Healey, giving evidence, said Matthews had been aggressive and very abusive, and had used "colourful" language not suitable for Skipton or in front of children and other members of the public. PC Healey said how he had been concerned of an escalation of the situation after a fellow library user with a child had described Matthews as a "nasty man".
Warned that he faced summons for a public order offence, Matthews continued to be difficult and was handcuffed twice before being forcibly taken to the ground. He was then led to the nearby police van, where he tried to avoid getting in before turning and spitting in the direction of the officers.
"He took a deep breath and like Spit the Dog launched spit towards us. Fortunately, it went between us and missed," said PC Healey, who in cross examination said there was no doubt in his mind of the defendant's intention.
Matthews told the court he disagreed with the library's renewal policy and for him to be stopped from using its services was "excessive".
He accepted he had sworn at the officers, but not in front of children and denied spitting at the officers.
He further claimed he was disabled, with a range of illnesses, and the officers should be in a "boxing ring" because of the way they had forced him to the floor.
But Matthews, who the court heard had previous convictions for similar offences and breaches of an anti-social behaviour order, was found guilty of resisting a police officer in the execution of his duty and ordered to pay a total of £1,082 in fines and costs. After sentence was passed, Matthews, of Wellcroft, Otley, said he would not pay the fine and instructed his solicitor Mike Walsh to appeal.
"There's no chance of that getting paid, there's more chance of snowboarding in Hell," he said.
Magistrates told Matthews he would be expected to pay £30 per week and warned him if he refused to pay he would find himself back in court.
