Grid Computing Takes the Linux Route
Grid Computing Takes the Linux Route
Lisa Vaas
Posted 2005-02-10
Why do we need yet another grid outfit? Because the open-source model promoted by the newly formed Globus Consortium is a smart one to follow.
Mondays launch of the Globus Consortium by HP, Intel, IBM and Sun Microsystems represented the second body devoted to the commercialization of grid to come into being in the past year, after the Enterprise Grid Alliance launched in April. Why do we need yet another grid outfit? Besides the EGA, we already have the Globus Alliance, as well as a smattering of bodies that work on grid standards, including the Global Grid Forum, OASIS (Organization for the Advancement of Structured Information Standards) and the World Wide Web Consortium.
The Globus Consortium, however, is specifically devoted to advancing open-source implementation of grid standards as the world of grid opens up to commercial use. The group is focused on advancing the Globus Toolkit, an open standards building block for enterprise-level grid implementations that came out of the Globus Alliance, an open-source-focused organization at Argonne National Labs.
Ian Foster, a consortium board member who led the original team that developed the tool kit, compares Globus Consortium to the
Open Source Development Labs
in which Linus Torvalds works, where the goal is to take Linux and make it ready for enterprise use. Grid computing, of course, has been around for years. But with the launch of products such as Oracles Database 10g, interest in using it in nonacademic settings has escalated. After all, as Peter ffoulkes, Suns director of marketing for high-performance and technical computing, said to me recently, business computing has woken up. Nowadays, enterprises are looking at the money theyve poured into computing resources and are saying, "Hey, wait a minute, were getting 10 percent utilization out of our computing systems, and our analysts are getting up to 90 percent utilization," ffoulkes said. Who wouldnt want a piece of that? Grid, essentially an evolution of distributed computing, promises pooled resources that, ideally, will bring computing power into the realm of utility resources, much like electricity, and deliver those much-desired utilization rates.
But plugging grid into the enterprise is going to be a different animal than using it for modeling weather patterns or mapping the human genome. A number of things happen when grid moves to an enterprise setting. For example, code must be embedded into enterprise systems, where there are a multitude of interfaces to deal with. Security, identity management and enterprise work roles will all undoubtedly have different characteristics that will stress code in different ways, Foster remarked in a recent conversation.

Among the 36 players in the league that have shot at least as many hook shots as Seraphin (32 hook shots), Seraphin has the second best field goal percentage on those shots.
Seraphin's left hand has also developed over the course of the season. Since the Detroit game last week, it would be hard to guess whether he is left- or right-handed. In the post, Seraphin has spun left an equal number of times as he has spun right. He has scored or been fouled on 55 percent of his left handed hook shots and 54 percent of his right handed hook shots.

Red Wings GM Ken Holland tells Waddell that he knows his team must reload—fast—and avoid a rebuild
by George Malik on 06/04/12 at 09:45 PM ET
Comments (12)
I've been hammering it like a nail: after tomorrow, we Red Wings fans will begin to find out about the shape of the Wings to come as GM Ken Holland, assistant GM Jim Nill, capologist (from having met him, folks, trust me, he's basically the team's third general manager) Ryan Martin, VP Jimmy Devellano, the team's pro scouts (Mark Howe, Kirk Maltby, etc.), special assistants Chris Chelios and Kris Drone Nicklas Lidstrom (okay, everybody take a deep breath, that's a long sentence)...
Will emerge from their organizational meetings, having decided what the team plans on doing with their own unrestricted free agents-to-be in Jiri Hudler (unlikely to return), Joey MacDonald (likely to be replaced), Tomas Holmstrom (likely to retire) and Brad Stuart (likely out the door), the shape of the negotiations to come with their restricted free agents in Darren Helm, Justin Abdelakder and Kyle Quincey, and—most importantly for you and me—what the team plans on doing in terms of targeting free agents to attempt to fill the gaping hole left in the team's blueline in Lidstrom's departure, starting with draft-day rights trades, continuing into free agency, and, if the market doesn't pan out, working the trade market.

Homer on parade, for sure, at the Cherry Festival
by George Malik on 06/04/12 at 01:50 PM ET
Comments (3)
Via RedWingsFeed, Tomas Holmstrom seems destined to join his best friend and partner in humorous crime in retirement, but the Left Wing Lock's Sarah Lindenau reports that a parade will be held in Holmstrom's honor in Traverse City…Sort of…
Tomas Holmstrom will serve as the Grand Marshall for the DTE Energy Cherry Royale parade on Saturday July 14th in Traverse City, MI. The parade, which is the largest of the Cherry Festival parades, will begin at 11:15 am at Railroad and Front streets in downtown Traverse City, MI.
Holmstrom's appearance at the parade is part of a partnership with Centre I.C.E. arena and the Detroit Red Wings Development camp which begins July 7th. The camp, which is in its second year in Traverse City, will feature daily practice sessions that will include many of Detroit's top prospects and 2012 draft selections. Tickets will be available at the door for a cost of $5 per day.

Red Wings mid-day news: Of course Nicklas Lidstrom was 'fun to be around!'
by George Malik on 06/04/12 at 01:27 PM ET
Comments (8)
Updated 5x with marginally Wings-related chatter at 6:33 PM: As the Free Press's Helene St. James just wrapped up her web chat and on both the fourth anniversary of the Detroit Red Wings' 2008 Cup win (5 years between championships, perhaps? Too long by Wings fans' standards…) and 32nd anniversary of Gordie Howe's official retirement from hockey, we begin what will probably be a "roving" post updated with afternoon news simply:
I have one "in real life" friend who has Nicklas Lidstrom's temperament, and while he's not exactly the life of the party, he is both "fun to be around" and has a brilliantly dry, almost Datsyukian sense of humor when he opens up. According to MLive's Brendan Savage, once the doors to the Wings' locker room were closed, Lidstrom was, in his own way, hilarious, and he may or may not have engaged in a "Mutt and Jeff" routine with his best friend:

Red Wings overnight report: Nick's job opportunities, draft/trade targets and audio of me blabbing

Comments (5)
After an incredibly busy and emotional week and weekend for Red Wings fans, punctuated by the recently-retired Nicklas Lidstrom being feted by the Red Hot Chili Peppers on Friday night and then taking out a full-page ad in the Detroit Free Press's Sunday edition, we spent some time talking about the Wings brass's organizational meetings, the team's draft strategy, and, mostly, remembering Lidstrom while preparing for life without him.

FSD's Wakiji: Red Wings captain Nicklas Lidstrom thanks the community in remarkable fashion
by George Malik on 06/03/12 at 06:01 PM ET
Comments (14)
Holy crap, per Fox Sports Detroit's Dana Wakiji: Red Wings captain Nicklas Lidstrom (and his former employers) bought a full-page advertisement in the Sunday Detroit Free Press to thank fans! And I quote:
A Message from Nick and Annika Lidstrom:
This week, I announced my retirement from the Detroit Red Wings and professional hockey. Annika, our boys and I will be moving back to Sweden to be closer to our extended families. Before we leave, we wanted to express our gratitude to the wonderful people of Metro Detroit for adopting us and making us feel at home for the past 21 years. You made the transition to Detroit, coming from a foreign country and culture, amazingly easy. For this, we are extremely grateful. Detroiters—hockey fans or not—are downright decent and respectable people. Although we were born in Sweden, we have lived half our lives here and raised our boys in this community. We will always cherish our time spent here and are proud to claim that we are also from Detroit.
Thank you!
Nick and Annika Lidstrom
Quickie update: The Red Wings have a picture of the ad, and here it is:

Red Wings overnight report: talking 'bout life after Nick, and how much we'll miss him
by George Malik on 06/03/12 at 12:39 AM ET
Comments (17)
Updated 4x by an insomniac at 6:47 AM: Boy howdy, did the Detroit Free Press pay tribute to Nick…and that plays into the, "How much we'll miss him" conversation in a big way: The Red Wings' brass might be beginning their organizational meetings after a long Tigers game this evening, and while we're not quite sure what their plans are regarding moving on past the second-best defenseman in Red Wings history after Red Kelly (sure, Jerry Green, whatever)...
Starting at what the Wings hope will still be a productive draft and thereafter, regardless of what happens when Niklas Kronwall and some of his teammates begin to attend CBA negotiations, Detroit's front office will have to move incredibly aggressively and incredibly quickly if they are to ensure that the Wings remain a playoff contender and elite attraction to the Parises and Suters of the world as we move into an era with no Nicklas Motherbleepin' Lidstrom in the lineup.

Oh, Jerry Green..
by George Malik on 06/02/12 at 11:43 PM ET
Comments (1)
Every once in a while, the Detroit News's Jerry Green probably cracks the arthritis out of his knuckles and pens a column about the Detroit sports scene, offering the perspective of someone who really was an "ink-stained wretch" who likely spent his time hunched over typwriters, chain smoking his way toward beating a deadline.
I respect the hell out of his, "Old school? I've literally been there and did it!" perspective (I work for someone like that, and his insights are remarkable), but he is also something of a…Curmudgeon of the Stan Fischler school. So it comes as little surprise that, in discussing the retirements of Detroit Tigers slugger Magglio Ordonez and Red Wings captain Nicklas Lidstrom, he compares the Red Wings' captain to a player who definitely mirrored Lidstrom's playing style in Red Kelly, and petitioning for Kelly's #4 to be raised to the rafters of Joe Louis Arena despite his acrimonious split with the team, which is spot-on…
Green insists that Lidstrom paled in comparison to the real McCoy:

Some welcome relief in the form of…CBA talk from Red Wings defenseman Niklas Kronwall?
by George Malik on 06/02/12 at 08:31 PM ET
Comments (0)
In recovering from a sixty-plus hour…Three-day work week…One needs to hear some comforting news as the aches, pains and spring allergies take their toll. I haven't even had time to truly wrap my head around the fact that Nicklas Lidstrom, my favorite favorite Red Wing, has retired, but, via RedWingsFeed, I'm hearing something that I desperately need to be told right now, more than any hopeful overnight or Saturday afternoon talk about free agency or draft hopes, and definitely more than watching a team that's not Detroit compete for the Stanley Cup.
Instead, the Detroit News's Ted Kulfan spoke to one of Lidstrom's successors, Niklas Kronwall, about the concept of the Red Wings' opportunity to begin the post-Lidstrom era, period, as the CBA is set to expire in September. Kronwall has represented the team as its NHLPA representative, and he at least believes that we're not likely to have to endure another lockout, at least if the players have any say in the proceedings. Is he worried?

No first-rounder and customarily low picks won't stop Red Wings from aiming high at the draft
by George Malik on 06/02/12 at 03:23 PM ET
Comments (14)
Via the Red Wings' Twitter account, I think you and I both need to bookmark NHL.com's draft website and news page as NHL.com's stories tend not to play nice with search engines (ironic, I know).
The Wings may not have a 1st round draft pick thanks to the Kyle Quincey deal, but the Wings still have six picks (starting with the 49th overall pick and continuing with the 20th pick in the 3rd through 7th rounds), and their amateur scouts have every intention of making hay despite their predictably limited and low-round resources.

RHCP drummer Chad Smith introduces Nicklas motherbleepin' Lidstrom!

Updated 3x with free agency scuttlebutt at 1:45 PM: As noted this morning, Red Wings captain Nicklas Lidstrom received quite the feting at last night's Red Hot Chili Peppers concert, and as RedWingsFeed points out, Chili Peppers drummer Chad Smith is something of a Wings fan.
If you're willing to deal with some audio blips and a significant number of f-bombs from Smith, Ology.com's Brett Warner found a lovely little cell phone clip taken by Dominic the Al Katib of Nicklas Mother****ing Lidstrom being introduced by Smith and speaking to the crowd at the Joe:

With top duo away, Beadman can shine in the Challenge
This afternoon the Jockey Challenge goes into unchartered territory - the first meeting with both premiership leaders Douglas Whyte and Brett Prebble missing - and oddsmakers look like they have it right by posting Darren Beadman at HK$4.5 favourite.
Beadman should at least give his rivals something to chase, as he could easily get away with the first two races, courtesy Sou Ma Tam in the opener and debutant Wasabisabi in the second.
Trainer Caspar Fownes has been responsible for a brilliant bit of planning with Sou Ma Tam, with the easy Thursday night Happy Valley winner remaining in the bottom grade and taking a nominal seven-pound penalty as he attempts to make it two wins in the space of four days.
Sou Ma Tam was aggressively ridden by Brett Prebble on Thursday night, leading throughout over 1,200m on turf, and this afternoon must convert that form to the all-weather track at the same distance.
But he is a hard-fit three-year-old and will probably go a lot further than most of his opposition.
Wasabisabi trialled over 800m down the straight on turf on May 20 and looked a very smart customer.
Although he only won by a length, he was always strongly on the bridle and Hall has repeatedly demonstrated his prowess with first-up winners.
In a Jockey Challenge betting market that is wide open, Glen Boss and Felix Coetzee are equal second picks at HK$6.0, ahead of Howard Cheng Yue-tin at HK$7.0.

DATABASES STILL PROBLEMS after revamping
I appreciate yahoo trying to make the databases usable again
Indeed there are many good things in the improvements and I appreciate you got us the French accented characters back again.
However, the format is still difficult to read and use for following reasons:
1/ column headings do not align with the actual columns as soon as you click on one of the columns to have it ordered. After reordering one column, column headings stay the same at the top but when you scroll down, column widths vary and no longer fit the headings!
example: I try to sort out column number 3 according to zip code, all columns realign but not with the headings, one still cannot understand what each column is about
2/ I dont understand the first column: these numbers are of no use at all, I used to have the first column for the name of the group member who put in the information, this is what I wanted first but now it is no longer! It takes space for no use.
3/ I appreciate having more length for reading each column but this is far toooooo long now, you need to use the cursor to go very far to the right, while it used to be possible to read the whole table without using cursors.
4/ In particular, to move the cursor to the right, you need to go ALL THE WAY down the database, even if it was the first entry you wanted to go and read towards the right! Now if you want to go back and read the second entry (out of 400 or so entries) you need to scroll back all the way to the top, and then when you want to go to the right to see what is in the 5th or 6th column,, you need to go ALL THE WAY down to get the cursor towards the RIGHT, you must be KIDDING ME ?
Therefore, I much prefered having pages, rather than scroll down the entire list !
5/ It would be nicer to have the entire page free to read the database and thus PLEASe could you get rid of the list of all the groups I own or am a member of, on the left of the screen, this is really totally unnneeded once I am in a group and even more when we are trying to read a database.
Overall comment: you have really worked hard and I appreciate.
HOWEVER, it is really still very difficult to use and far LESS convenient than it USED TO BE

Database - search (+ special letters)
It seems like the search possibility in the Database not are working. I was planning to fix some of the errors in the table myself, but it didn´t work for any search.
I have waited about 2-3 years for that the issue with special letters should be fixed, and it seems like it is - more or less - but still in our Database there are some issue. (This problem started long before NEO in another update).
I thought I should fix it myself and tried to seach the letter -ř - to change it to the correct one. This is only one of the letters appearing in the database that are not correct. I have read the issue is fixed, and it might be for french, but not for norwegian.283rd

Database - still not very good
For a long time the Database has been terrible to work with. I have a group that unfortunately have norwegian letters, and one of the words (of many) in the database still looks like this: R鷨vik - and I have used a lot of hours to try to fix things and for me it also seems very slow the database - working like sirup.
So I decided to start to correct the errors, since it seems that this will not be corrected by yahoo. I started to search for all these letters that are wrong - so I could change them one by one -
Since we have about 3500 rows in the database it isn´t a fast job to read all the lines to find the errors and it would have been easier if the search function could have worked - but it is not working!!!
Then I thought I should do it row by row, little by little, but what happens ?- I scroll down and find an error, correct it, and then the database is back to row 1 again - lets say I was in row 1500, and then has to go down 1500 rows or more for each time I am going to correct something - I can´t do this.
And I am quite sure that the row number isn´t the same number we add it to the database (can´t be 100%, but quite) - so I would like the numbers away and got back the database like it was.
I am not able to understand all this mess and would gladly have changed to another group and paid for it - but this lasts years have been terrible and still are - it used to be a pleasure to use the Yahoo groups. I am a patient person, but so many of my group are not funcion anymore - some that we use the Events in, there the Events doesn´t work - so 3 groups are totally useless at the moment. What is going on? Is it posible that it should take so long to fix things. I know it is for free - but still.282nd

new post with the same problem again
What has happened to the databases since the beginning of the year. The new ones created only show 3 columns no matter how many you create.
Since the start of the year, when you create a database it shows that you can add all kinds of columns, but when the table displays there are only 3, and even if you try to edit it, there are only 3. The ones made before the new year are working fine. We make a whole bunch of databases at the start of the year, and this is hurting us. The informations says up to 50 columns. Not anymore

Sorry, I meant ""serial number" with the ability to add a decimal point rather than a "row number" in my previous email. The row numbers should be scrapped.

Please allow us to be able to use a number for the rows with a decimal point, as it used to be allowed with the Classic Groups. This allows me to add a new row in the middle of my databases without renumbering every other row which follows. It is important that our databases be kept in a specific order.

And, today, it's happened again. Another person edited a line in a database, and it obliterated the data another member had entered. This is 2 days in a row that this has happened. The frequency of these errors is increasing. PLEASE ELEVATE THIS TO A HIGHER PRIORITY NOW!

Jerry Finn: Empathetic record producer
Monday 15 September 2008
Recording Morrissey is never straightforward. The former Smiths frontman is a gifted lyricist and tends to emphasise that aspect of his work. By the time the American producer Jerry Finn worked with him in 2003, the notoriously choosy Morrissey had used four different producers over half a dozen solo albums. He had also relocated to Los Angeles and not released any new music since 1997. For the recording of You Are The Quarry, Finn decided to shake Morrissey out of his comfort zone by changing the singer's modus operandi.
"Having everyone in the studio at the same time made the creative process much easier," the producer said. "Instead of trying to create the music around Morrissey's vocals, which is how it used to be done, we were able to create a much more listenable album because everyone was in the same room at the same time and it made the album much tighter. It's just purely organic and it sounds incredible. I think Quarry is Morrissey's best work because of how it was recorded."
Critics and fans seemed to share Finn's opinion, and the album, issued on Attack in 2004, was hailed as a return to form and went on to become Morrissey's best selling album, spawning four hit singles – "Irish Blood, English Heart", "First Of The Gang To Die", "Let Me Kiss You" and "I Have Forgiven Jesus" – and and selling more than a milion copies worldwide.
"I wanted a louder sound for this record," Morrissey said at the time of the album's release. "I was introduced to Jerry by a mutual friend. He made me feel very confident. He's not easily pleased and he's not prepared to be overwrought. He knows exactly what he wants to do. He was able to help me create the sound for this album that I had already been hearing in my head. This is the best album I've ever done."
Best known for working with third generation US punk rock groups like Blink-182, Green Day and The Offspring, Finn came to Morrissey attention after producing Destination Failure, the 1997 album by the alternative band Smoking Popes, who supported the singer on tour that year. Morrissey made his 2006 album Ringleader Of The Tormentors with the T Rex and David Bowie producer Tony Visconti, but enlisted Finn again for the recording of Years Of Refusal, his next album. Finn had completed production work on the album – due out early next year – when he suffered a brain haemorrhage in July. He never regained consciousness.
Born in 1969, he took the traditional route from assistant engineer via engineer and mixer to fully-fledged producer. In the early 1990s he became right-hand man to Rob Cavallo, who signed Green Day to Reprise, the Warner Brothers label, and produced the Dookie album with the band in 1994. When Billie Armstrong and his bandmates declared themselves dissatisfied with the original mix, Finn and Carvallo set to work again and came up with a brighter, crunchier-sounding album which has now sold 15m copies. As a new generation of teenagers discovered punk rock in 1995, Finn began a fruitful association with Epitaph, the independent label founded by the Bad Religion guitarist Brett Gurewitz. The two produced Pennywise's About Time album and a single by Gurewitz's side-project The Daredevils. Finally working on his own, Finn produced Rancid's ...And Out Come The Wolves, the band's commentary on major labels cashing in on punk rock, in 1995. He also mixed their 1998 album Life Won't Wait and Bad Religion's The Process Of Belief in 2002.
In 1999, Finn produced Blink-182's breakthrough album Enema Of The State, which made the charts around the world and sold 8m copies. Finn forged a strong bond with the punk- pop band fronted by Tom DeLonge and Mark Hoppus and produced their subsequent albums Take Off Your Pants And Jacket (2001) and Blink-182 (2003), and co-produced and mixed When Your Heart Stops Beating by +44, the new group led by Hoppus (2006).
Sometimes compared to Butch Vig, the Nirvana producer whose name was on everybody's lips during the grunge era, Finn shared production credits with Vig on Sing The Sorrow, the major label debut by the alternative rock band AFI in 2003, and a landmark in the post-hardcore genre, and produced Decemberunderground, their follow-up, which topped the US charts in 2006.
One of Finn's favourite tricks was to bring in the keyboard player Roger Manning, of the band Jellyfish, into the sessions by Blink-182, Alkaline Trio (the album Crimson in 2005) or even Morrissey. But his real forte was his dynamic, warm guitar sound, as on the Blink-182 albums and All Killer No Filler by the Canadian punk band Sum 41 (2001). This he achieved by recording instruments through more than one amplifier at the same time. He had a large collection of amps which he brought to the studios.
"Many engineers try to keep everything separate and add effects later," he said. "Players play to the sound, so you just have to get a sound and go with it. This allows you to mix tones together to get just the right sound."
Thought of as "one of the guys" by his friends in Blink-182, was in great demand. He could act as a sounding board or confidant and push musicians and singers to perform at their best. He would order food and shoot the breeze with his clients and generally create a relaxed atmosphere.
"He helped shape the sound and direction of Blink-182, from Enema Of The State all the way through to the end and into +44," Hoppus said. "When my son was born, while everyone else was sending us baby blankets and teddy bears, Jerry and his girlfriend gave him a tiny black leather jacket covered in metal studs and Ramones pins. Every day I spent with Jerry over the past 10 years, I feel like he taught me something new about music, or recording, or life."

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - View original article
This article possibly contains original research. (August 2011) |
Sing-along, also called community singing or group singing, is an event of singing together at gatherings or parties, less formally than choir singing. One can use a songbook. Common genres are folk songs, patriotic songs, hymns and drinking songs. Children across the world usually sing nursery rhymes together. Sing-along can be based on unison singing, or on singing in harmony (different parts).
Group vocalizing is known from several animal species. For example, a lion pride and a pack of wolves are known to vocalize together (supposedly to defend their territory), although scholars do not characterize their vocalizations as "singing". Gibbons sing in family groups (couples sing together, sometimes with their offspring)
Singing in groups is one of the universal features of human musical cultures, and group singing has been often suggested as the primary form of the early human musical activity.[1] It has been suggested that human group singing was primarily promoting the cohesiveness within human groups,[2] and was possibly used to defend human groups from predators and competitors [3]
In human societies group singing can be limited to certain sexes, ages, social groups. Group singing can be also different in the actual sound, for example, singing in unison or octaves, accompanied or a capella or singing in harmony (in different parts). Informal group singing can be accompanied by body movements, stomping, or clapping. Organized, regularly scheduled sing-along sessions are held in some cities, notably Seattle where most of them are known as "song circles". Many of these are organized by formal societies like the Seattle Folklore Society. Sometimes individual musicians will share their own songs with the group, but more often an individual will request a song that the whole group will sing together.

Joplin Trails Coalition
The Joplin Trails Coalition is a group dedicated to creating and maintaining walking and biking trails in and around the Joplin, Webb City, Carthage, Oronogo and Carl Junction Missouri. We currently have two trail projects: the Frisco Greenway Trail that runs through Joplin and Webb City, and the Ruby Jack Trail that goes from Carthage, MO through Oronogo, Carl Junction, and on to the Kansas State Line. Both of these trails are "Rails To Trails" projects, meaning they are former railroads that have been converted to multi-use trails. The trails are created and maintained via the hard work of several volunteers and generous donations from individuals and businesses throughout the community. We invite you to come and explore the trails in person and to get involved with the trails by joining the Joplin Trails Coalition, volunteering on trail work days, and by supporting our annual Route 66 Mother Road Bicycle Tour and the Maple Leaf Tour.

Sakhalin-2: one of the world's largest integrated oil and gas projects
Sakhalin-2 is one of the most challenging engineering feats ever achieved. It operates amid some of the world's harshest conditions in Russia's far east, an area prone to earthquakes. The winter season lasts up to 240 days and there is ice for most of the year. Facilities also had to be designed to withstand the impact of a major earthquake.
The project on Sakhalin Island exports liquefied natural gas (LNG) and oil to the fast-growing energy markets in the Asia-Pacific region and the west coast of North America. Its customers are located in Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, China, Kuwait, USA and Thailand. The first Sakhalin-2 LNG cargo arrived in Japan's Tokyo Bay in April 2009.
The LNG plant has reached full capacity. In 2012 it exceeded its annual design output by producing 10.9 million tonnes of LNG.
Offshore platforms in an icy sea
The platforms that produce Russia's first offshore oil and gas, 15 kilometres off Sakhalin Island, stand in water up to 50 metres deep in the stormy Sea of Okhotsk. They are the Piltun-Astokhskoye-A platform (also known as "Molikpaq"), Piltun-Astokhskoye-B and Lunskoye-A platforms.
In this region, temperatures can drop to -45 degrees Celsius (-49° Fahrenheit) in winter. Arctic winds combine with high humidity for a wind-chill factor of -70°C (-94°F). At such temperatures, people can work outside only in short shifts despite steel cladding on the outer sides of the platforms that breaks the wind, offering some protection.
Protecting western gray whales
Western gray whales, a species brought to near extinction by commercial whaling early in the twentieth century, feed in the waters off Sakhalin Island. Sakhalin Energy re-routed the offshore pipelines 20 kilometres to the south to avoid the feeding grounds following advice from an independent panel of scientists set up under the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN). In recognition of its western gray whale protection programme, Sakhalin Energy won the 2008 Environmental Project of the Year award from Russia's Ministry of Environment and Natural Resources.
To protect the whales, sound levels in the area are constantly monitored. During construction work such as drilling and pipe laying was suspended when the noise exceeded levels recommended by scientists. Buoys with acoustic monitors positioned along the edge of the feeding grounds track sound levels. The large-scale research programme is jointly financed by Sakhalin Energy and ExxonMobil, the operator of the Sakhalin I project. In 2012 nine calves and several adult whales were registered for the first time in the waters off north-east Sakhalin.
Pipelines crossing seismic faults and salmon rivers
Once the hydrocarbons are pumped ashore, a processing plant treats gas and condensate, a natural gas liquid, from the Lunskoye-A platform, along with oil and some gas produced by the Molikpaq and Piltun Astokhskoye-B platforms. From there, the gas is sent through two parallel 800-kilometre pipelines to the Prigorodnoye complex at Aniva Bay in the south of the island, which includes an LNG plant, an oil export terminal and a port which is virtually ice-free during winter.
As long as the distance from Paris to Berlin, the pipelines cross seismic faultlines at 19 places and more than 1,000 of Sakhalin Island's 60,000 rivers and streams. The 8,000 construction workers who built them could only start work after unexploded munitions from World War Two had been cleared.
Engineers planned the onshore pipeline route to avoid most of the active faults where even low levels of seismic activity could cause ruptures. If no alternative route existed, they used pipeline segments made of steel that can bend up to four metres without breaking.
Sakhalin Energy planned the route to create the least disturbance to vulnerable species, such as the Steller's sea-eagle and Siberian spruce grouse, and to the island's rich vegetation. Laying the pipelines beneath streams where salmon spawn — a highly sensitive operation — mainly took place in winter when the water was frozen.
Harnessing the cold to produce LNG
The gas arrives at Prigorodnoye port after a day-long journey from the platforms. There Sakhalin Energy has built Russia's first LNG plant, designed to produce 9.6 million tonnes a year of LNG. That is enough to generate electricity for around 24 million European homes. Almost all the production capacity is committed in long-term contracts to supply customers in Japan, Korea and North America.
Shell developed an energy-saving process for sub-Arctic conditions that takes advantage of the low ambient temperatures to cool the gas and turn it into a liquid.
The new oil export terminal next to the LNG plant has the capacity to store 1.2 million barrels of oil — six days of pipeline supply. Heating elements fitted inside the floating roofs of the storage tanks ensure that snow in winter does not build up into a heavy load. Instead, it melts and slides off. A pipeline on the seabed transports the crude oil to tankers waiting to be loaded at Tanker Loading Unit located 4.8 kilometres from the Prigorodnoye coastline.

Zinsser Bulls Eye Water Base Primer
Anyone used this product before? Zinsser Bulls Eye Water Base Primer? I am looking to prime some bare wood, door framing around closet before I paint it all white. I am trying to stay away from oil base paints. It states, Formulated to resist grain raise. All inputs are welcomed. Just hate painting with oil products...:thumbsup: Thanks!
Bullseye Waterbase is supposed to be a low/no odor version on Bullseye 1-2-3...which is also water-based btw
If there are no knots, markings, or other potential bleed-through problems, and it's bare wood (no finish), then you can use a water-based primer I personally don't find 1-2-3 too smelly, but I suppose some people are more sensitive to odors than others |
Bullseye is definitely a cheapy version of 1-2-3 but it should work fine for what you are doing. Go for it.

6 out of 7 people found this instruction helpful
I contacted a company to come out and diagnose the problem. They informed me that the thermal limiter is bad and needed to be replaced for $15 for the part and $85 labor. I found the part on this site for about $10, and did the repair myself. The dryer was mostly dismantled so I pulled the drum back, and replaced the part. The tricky part was the pulley system was, so make sure you see it before hand or find a diagram online. Once that was figured out, I set the drum back up, greased and tightened the pulley, reattached the front of the washer with connections, and closed the lid.

Wow, a full size set for $20. You get what you pay for. Semi soft, but super thin fabric; Hold it up to the light and you can see right thru it. The top sheet was lighter than other pillow cases I own.
Not even worthy of my guest room; I'll keep it for emergency and my "B" list friends.

FLOWERY BRANCH - Everything was in place for Falcons general manager Thomas Dimitroff. The 41-year-old whiz of talent evaluation had the third overall pick, four picks in the top 48, six in the top 100, and 11 picks overall in this weekend's NFL draft. Even given that the rest of the roster is in relative shambles, a first-year GM could hardly ask for a better opportunity to put his mark on a team. It was billed as the most important draft in franchise history.
Not that Falcons general manager Thomas Dimitroff could care less what a bunch of sportswriters, TV personalities and sports radio jocks have to say, but the message was clear at Wednesday's team-sponsored "Massive Media Mock Draft." If Glenn Dorsey isn't available at No. 3, trade the pick.
The Falcons will be holding their first "Massive Media Mock" draft today beginning at 10:30 a.m. The event will be aired live via webcast.
FLOWERY BRANCH - Thomas Dimitroff faces a crucial decision Saturday with the Atlanta Falcons holding the third pick in the NFL draft.

FLOWERY BRANCH - Brian VanGorder might spend several seasons as the Atlanta Falcons' defensive coordinator.
FLOWERY BRANCH - Mike Smith's first post-practice news conference on Monday lasted 10 minutes and didn't include any questions about Michael Vick.
ATLANTA - A three-day minicamp next week will provide new Atlanta Falcons coach Mike Smith and general manager Thomas Dimitroff a pre-draft look at their veteran players in practice situations.
Atlanta Falcons linebacker Michael Boley signed a tender offer from the team today.
The Atlanta Falcons were awarded an extra pick in the NFL draft Monday, receiving a third-round selection as compensation for their free agent losses last season.
The Atlanta Falcons on Monday retained the exclusive rights for defensive tackle Montavious Stanley. Last season, Stanley totaled 35 tackles and two fumble recoveries in his first year with the Falcons after being signed as a free agent in Aug. 2007.
The Atlanta Falcons have agreed to terms with record-setting kicker Jason Elam, who is leaving Denver after 15 seasons with the Broncos.
FLOWERY BRANCH - The Atlanta Falcons today traded cornerback DeAngelo Hall to the Oakland Raiders for a second round selection in the 2008 NFL Draft and a future fifth round pick in 2009.
FLOWERY BRANCH sss- After cutting Alge Crumpler, the Atlanta Falcons signed former Georgia tight end Jason Rader on Friday.
ATLANTA - The Atlanta Falcons re-signed quarterback Joey Harrington only one week after cutting the six-year veteran.
ATLANTA - The Atlanta Falcons released wide receiver Harry Douglas, starting offensive guard Justin Blalock and defensive end Jonathan Massaquoi on Friday, a day after cutting running back Steven Jackson.
ATLANTA - The Atlanta Falcons on Thursday released running back Steven Jackson, who in two seasons with the team couldn't recapture his 1,000-yard form that made him one of the league's top backs with the Rams.

In The Sixth Tower LyricsArtist: Opera IxAlbum: Anphisbena With his piercing call The thick dark leaves of the forest dance in the wind and in worshipful adoration The heavens tremble and the bright lightning flashes, leaving the heart's of the forests sons The howling of the wolves become a macabre litany Premonitions, obscure premonitions crawl in the night air Built on dragon's bones the imposing tower stands There the old of the oak turns the profaned sealed pages The timeless pages built on sacred and terrible rituals The wrinkled hands turn the pages, the hypnotic starring eyes nourish the thousand thoughts In the whirling magic of this silent ritual While the moonlight reflects the dragon's breath When the ancient gods ruled the earth, giving abundance and death with a simple and fair hand Glorious were their crowns, but the greed let the man to no longer follow the way of faith But only the path of power. His greed drove him to excavate the depths of the earth In search of hidden treasures The rocks were broken and scattered to extract gold and gems Mans disrupted the earth creating chasms liberating wealth and tremendous powers imprisoned In the womb of the earth for thousands of years Blinded by a mad quest, made pacts with the lord of the abyss Repayed with the supreme art of metals The sublimation of the elements earth, wind, water and fire Death and destruction would spread Blood of the guilty and the innocent may spill on earth nourishing the abyss

It doesn't look like we're getting any closer to narrowing down the technologies that will make mobile payments possible.
According to the Frontline blog, Microsoft is toying with mobile payments using a combination of Bluetooth low energy and gaming technology. BLE is a newer specification for the same Bluetooth technology that connects headphones and speakers, but it's intended for use with devices that don't require a lot of energy and data sent back and forth. In tests run by Microsoft, BLE identifies the user's phone and places that phone within a store.
To identify the specific user at the point of sale, Microsoft uses facial recognition technology from its Kinect gaming system. Think of it as Square Wallet meets XboX.
The goal of the payment method, which Micorsoft said it has tested at cafeterias on its own campus as well as a coffee stand at a tech conference, is to make mobile payments seamless, replicating the ability of Square Wallet to transact a payment without a consumer even reaching for his phone, while also helping merchants deal with multiple wallet users in a single store.
For instance, imagine everyone using Square Wallet, which uses a consumer's phone to place the shopper in a certain store, in a Walmart on Black Friday. Determining who is who out of hundreds of shoppers would be a retail associate's worst nightmare. Augmenting the system with Kinect would help solve that problem.
According to the story, the two tests worked well, though they only encountered 274 customers making 705 purchases. And the purchases were made using key fobs, not actual phones.
Still, it shows that it's too soon to restrict the discussions on mobile payments to NFC or QR codes.
