The invention relates to a data processing method for optimizing one or more parameters of a message handling system and to such a message handling system.
A message handling system is an arrangement of interconnected processing components, which may be configured as a single machine or as a series of machines such as servers connected together, with messages traveling between the components.
A message handling system would be used by, for example, a business to link together such things as a website, customer records, stock information, and financial details. These components are in communication with each other via messages (units of work) that are created according to the structure of the system. For example, when a customer places an order through the website of the business, this would generate one or more messages that can be held in queues maintained by a central facility. The components within the system can then access the queues to call messages to execute tasks in relation to the called message, such as accessing the customer's account to receive payment, reserving stock and so forth.
Software vendors provide solutions to businesses to enable them to set up such message handling systems, or to integrate existing (sub) systems into a single unitary whole. The central facility within the system, which can be maintained by a component of the system, controls the general operation of the system. A variety of system parameters are set and controlled by this central facility. This may include such things as the allocation of memory resources in the system, the maintaining and updating of a log (for use in recovery situations), the number of processes being run by the system, the persistence/non-persistence of messages, and so on.
The central facility will be accessible by an administrator of the system, via a suitable user interface. The administrator can, via the user interface, access data concerning the operation of the message handling system, such as the amount of message traffic, and can monitor the performance of the system and of the individual components. The administrator can also make changes to the system parameters to adjust or attempt to improve the performance of the message handling system.
It is common for a user of a message handling system to have an ongoing relationship with the original vendor of the product, for such matters as technical support. In particular, following installation or following a substantial change in the operating circumstances of the system (such as a change in customer base or the launch of new products), the original vendor or the system administrator may be called upon to optimize the message handling system, or at least attempt to improve the overall throughput of messages in the system.
To achieve this, it is necessary for a technically skilled person who is familiar with the particular system and with the operating arrangement of that system to understand and characterize the overall system and work out a projection of the likely optimum performance of the particular installation of the message handling system. This projection includes potential parameter changes within the system. These changes are usually then made, and an iterative process of improving the performance of the system is carried out.
It will be appreciated that this known method of improving the performance of a message handling system is expensive in terms of resources and expertise, and has the overall weakness that it relies very heavily on the skilled person's judgment and experience.
According to a first aspect of the present invention, there is provided a data processing method for optimizing one or more parameters of a message handling system comprising: defining a test workload comprising a plurality of messages, simulating the normal operation of the message handling system, processing at least a portion of the test workload, changing one or more parameters of the message handling system, monitoring the performance of the message handling system, and generating an optimization of at least one parameter based upon the performance of the message handling system.
According to a second aspect of the present invention, there is provided a message handling system, comprising: a plurality of interconnected processing components for maintaining, communicating and processing messages, the plurality of interconnected processing components including a facility arranged to define a test workload comprising a plurality of messages, to simulate the normal operation of the message handling system, to process at least a portion of the test workload, to change one or more parameters of the message handling system, to monitor the performance of the message handling system, and to generate an optimization of at least one parameter based upon the performance of the message handling system.
According to a third aspect of the present invention, there is provided a computer program product on a computer readable medium, the computer program product comprising instructions, tangibly embedded in a computer readable medium, for optimizing one or more parameters of a message handling system comprising defining a test workload comprising a plurality of messages, simulating the normal operation of the message handling system, processing at least a portion of the test workload, changing one or more parameters of the message handling system, monitoring the performance of the message handling system, and generating an optimization of at least one parameter based upon the performance of the message handling system.
Owing to the invention, it is possible to provide a message handling system that can be optimized for one or more parameters in an automatic fashion. Little or no intervention is required by a user of the system, and the requirement for specialist adaptation of a message handling system is foregone. The system can perform its own optimization, and this planning will be performed on a real system with real data, not a forecast.
The aim of the optimization will usually be to maximize the throughput of messages through the system, which will be measured while the performance of the message handling system is monitored.
Advantageously, the data processing method further comprises receiving a signal to trigger the parameter optimization process. The signal to trigger the parameter optimization process can be generated automatically by the message handling system. The automatic generation of the trigger to optimize the message handling system, which may be based upon a factor such as time elapsed since system install or upgrade, results in a system that can self optimize without an administrator intervention. It is also possible that the system will recommend to a user that optimization should take place, based upon the system detecting that throughput requirements are not being met. This could be triggered by the system detecting that messages are waiting on an input queue for too long, for example.
Preferably, the step of defining a test workload is executed automatically by the message handling system by monitoring the normal operation of the message handling system. The automation of the creation of the test workload further reduces the intervention of a human operator in the optimization of the message handling system. Alternatively, the step of defining a test workload is executed by a user of the message handling system. The defining of the test workload can also be a combination of machine and human input, with the system proposing a test workload that a user can amend or extend as desired.
Ideally, the test workload includes a time period. The test workload represents a sample workload that the message handling system would process over a defined time period, perhaps fifteen minutes.
Advantageously, each of the plurality of messages in the test workload is designated by a type, and the steps of simulating the normal operation of the message handling system, and processing at least a portion of the test workload, are executed for each message type in turn.
To facilitate an effective optimization, the messages within the test workload are organized into types. There may be as few as two different types, or there could be ten or more types. There is no absolute definition of what these types have to be, it is sufficient that they cover the variety of different messages with which the system deals. Messages could be split into type according to their size, or the nature of the processing demands that they make, or the speed with which they need to be dealt, or a combination of these and other factors. By simulating the normal operation of the system for each type of message, in turn, information on those parameters effecting individual message types can be acquired.
In an alternative embodiment, the steps of simulating the normal operation of the message handling system, and processing at least a portion of the test workload, are executed for the entire test workload. In this embodiment, the designated test workload is processed by the message handling system, and information on the performance of the system as parameters are changed is relevant to the whole test workload, which is representative of the normal workload of the system.
Preferably, the steps of changing one or more parameters of the message handling system, and monitoring the performance of the message handling system, include using a genetic algorithm to modify the parameters of the message handling system. Since multiple parameters effect the operation of the message handling system, a defined algorithm or process is needed to achieve the optimization of those parameters that are chosen for inquiry (which may be just one or may be all of the possible parameters effecting system performance). One way of achieving the optimization is to use a genetic algorithm. The algorithm makes changes to the parameters on a (semi) random basis and monitors the resulting performance of the system. Those changes that result in improvement are kept and those that do not lead to improvement are discarded.
In an alternative embodiment, the steps of changing one or more parameters of the message handling system, and monitoring the performance of the message handling system, consists of changing a single parameter and monitoring the effects of the single change of parameter. This method, as an alternative to the use of a genetic algorithm, is most appropriate where only one, or a small number, of parameters are being optimized. In this case, a single parameter is changed incrementally until it finds the point of best performance, and then this is repeated for each of the other parameters in turn. This can be done recursively, if it is considered likely that later changes to other parameters may affect the “best” value for parameters already optimized.
FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of a message handling system;
FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram of a component of the message handling system of FIG. 1; and
FIG. 3 is a flowchart of a data processing method for optimizing one or more parameters of the message handling system of FIGS. 1 and 2.
FIG. 1 shows a message handling system 10, which comprises a plurality of interconnected processing components 12. These components 12, in many practical applications are only separate in a logical sense, being different parts of a single computing system. The components 12 are for maintaining, communicating and processing messages, an example of such a message being the message 14. At least one of the components, and possibly all of them, has the capability to create messages 14. Messages can be created at a very fast rate, in the order of hundreds per second.
The plurality of interconnected processing components 12 include a central facility 16, which has the role of coordinating many of the organizational aspects of the message handling system 10. In particular, the facility 16 will maintain one or more queues 18 of messages 14. When a component 12 creates a message 14, this will be placed on a queue 16 within the facility 18. The facility 16 is responsible for the management of the queue 18, including such factors as the logging of messages 14 for data recovery purposes, and the locking of queues when messages 14 are called by other components within the system.
The facility 16 is also accessible by an administrator of the system 10, via a suitable user interface, to access information about the performance of the system 10 and to set or adjust any system parameters. These parameters will relate to all aspects of the system 10 including such things as the allocation of memory resources in the system 10, the maintaining and updating of the message log, the number of processes being run by the system 10, and the persistence/non-persistence of messages. In most systems many other user adjustable parameters will be present.
When a message handling system such as that shown in FIG. 1 is installed, then decisions are made concerning the setting of parameters for the running of the system. These are likely to be set at a default level, with possibly some adjustment by the expert installer of the system. However, once this has been done, the system 10 will run with the message traffic that is generated by the real working of the system 10.
The system 10 includes the functionality of automatic optimization. This autonomic process of optimization (of one or more parameters) is triggered, either automatically within the system 10 or can be triggered by an action of a user through the user interface of the facility 16.
Once the system has been triggered to perform the optimization, it will enter a test mode and the normal functioning of the message handling system 10 will be stopped. In its simplest form the optimization will have as its aim the calculation of the maximum throughput of messages by the system 10, and all parameters will be optimized to achieve this end.
In order to execute the optimization, the facility 16 is arranged to define a test workload (shown in FIG. 2). The test workload 24 comprises a plurality of messages, and is either created by the facility 16 automatically by monitoring the normal running of the system 10, or is user defined, or a combination of these methods is possible. The test workload 24 can be stored locally and can be updated over time, until it is needed for an optimization of the system 10.
FIG. 2 illustrates in more detail some of the workings of the central facility 16, in which a broker 20, one example of a message processing system, is controlling units within the facility 16. These units include a driver process 22, which simulates the normal operation of the message handling system 10 by emulating the work of the components. The driver process 22 has access to the test workload 24, which contains a plurality of messages. These messages in the test workload 24 are designed to represent a segment of the normal working of the message handling system 10. Each of the plurality of messages in the test workload 24 can be designated by a type. For example, if 90% of the messages handled by the system 10 are of a first type and 10% are of a second type, then the test workload would contain 9 messages of the first type and 1 of the second type to model the normal workflow through the system 10.
The optimization process is summarized in FIG. 3, with the first three steps being as discussed above, of receiving 300 an instruction to begin the optimization process, secondly defining 302 the test workload 24 and thirdly simulating 304 the normal operation of the system 10, which is carried out by the driver process 22.
The next stage in the method is the step 306 of processing at least a portion of the test workload 24. The driver process can either use all of the messages in the test workload 24 to drive the optimization or can take each of the different types of message in turn to calculate the optimization. Once the processing of the workload 24 has begun, then the driver process can change the parameters in the system (step 308) and monitor 310 the performance of the system, ultimately generating 312 an optimization of the system 10.
The steps 308 and 310 of changing one or more parameters of the message handling system 10, and monitoring the performance of the message handling system 10, can include the use of a genetic algorithm to modify the parameters of the message handling system 10. This will lead to a recursive repetition of the steps 306, 308 and 310 as shown by the dotted arrow in FIG. 3. The genetic algorithm will modify the parameters in random fashion and test the results with a learning process to identify those changes that improve the performance of the system 10.
An alternative to the use of a genetic algorithm is for the steps 308 and 310 of changing one or more parameters of the message handling system, and monitoring the performance of the message handling system, to consist of changing a single parameter and monitoring the effects of the single change of parameter. This again will be in many instances a recursive process. FIG. 2 relates to an example of a single parameter change to optimize the system 10.
In FIG. 2, the driver process 22 uses the messages in the test workload 24 to start off a recursive process of optimization. The messages within the workload 24 are sent to an input queue 26, at a specific time rate of, for example, 1 per second, which will feed the messages through execution groups 28. The single parameter that is being optimized is the number of processes (shown as execution groups in the Figure) being run by the broker 20.
The processes 28 will process the messages that they receive an place the output messages onto output queues 30. The depth of the input queue 26 is monitored by the driver process 22 and if there is a potential for more messages to be placed onto queue 26 then the rate of placing of messages on the queue 26 is increased. An additional draining process 32 is created to drain the messages from the output queues 30. The depth of the queue 26 is continually monitored and the rate is increased to the point at which there is no more scope for additional throughput. An example of the processing of the driver is as follows:
Rate = 1 message per second, Average = 0, MaxRate = 0
While Rate > MaxRate
Do 32 times [32 could be replaced to be other value if proved
more effective in production]
Put Message to Input Q at rate specified (in this case
1 every second)
Wait for 1/Rate seconds
Monitor the depth of the Q -> Curdepth
Calculate average depth of Q: (Average * 31 + Curdepth)/32
If Average > 1
If Rate > MaxRate
MaxRate = Rate
Create a new instance of the flow
Report max rate and number of instances
Increase Rate = Rate + 10% [10% be replaced to be other
value if proved more effective in production]
At the point at which the Q Depth is greater than 1 (averaged) a check is made to see if the rate has increased from any previous recorded. If so then the driver process will create a new thread as more throughput could be possible. If not then the facility will report the findings and exit. If the Q Depth is less than one then the rate at which messages are put on the input Q is increased. On completion the maximum message rate possible for the machine tested is placed in a file 34 or onto a Q (36) along with the necessary message processing application, in this example, broker configuration.
In this way a single parameter can be optimized automatically for a message handling system, to increase the performance of the system. Multiple parameters can be optimized in turn, or can be optimized in parallel.

The name is Liverpool - Pasion De Multitudes
The name is Liverpool
I know that I would normally blog about the history of Argentinean clubs and their nicknames, but somebody requested the other day, for me to do a little writing on the story of the “other Liverpool”. The one from Uruguay.
I liked the idea, as I have family in Uruguay, who live in the Belvedere part of Montevideo, where Liverpool are from.
I went to watch them a few times, and as a child I was always intrigued about their name and roots.
Hope you enjoy their history as much as I do.
Formed in 1908 by the students of the school “Padres Capuchinos” in the western part of Montevideo called Nuevo Paris (New Paris). They had a generation of youngsters who were football fans and wanted to make a team to play against other schools.
They took their idea to a school meeting, and soon their dram became reality.
English teams were, at that time the ones causing admiration all over the world for their style of play and elegance, so they decided that they would call themselves under the name of an English club.
They were not quite sure which one, but looking at a map, they remembered that during a geography lesson their teacher told them how Liverpool was the most important coal port in England, from where most ships that arrived in Montevideo came from.
By this time 7 years have passed and the 15th of February of 1915, the Liverpool football club was officially founded.
They wanted to model themselves on the best, so they took the colours of the 2 local teams that were doing well at the time. They took the blue from Titan, and the black from Defensa. Their uniform it is in vertical blue and black stripes like that of Inter Milan.
The professional era in Uruguay started in 1932. Liverpool were told then, that in order to be accepted to that league, they needed to fuse with Misiones. However as neither of the clubs were interested, they decided to stay in the amateur league.
There was not direct promotion from the amateur to the professional league. The only way to get there was via a play off between the champions of the amateur league against the team that finished last on the professional one.
In 1938 Liverpool become the first one to get promoted that way, when they beat Racing.
After being saved from relegation the following year, they began 2 decades of glory in the primera division with amazing players like Maspoli, Sixto Gonzalez and Omar Abreu (who stayed at the club for 16 years)
In the 70’s they toured Europe and they surprised themselves with great performances and results (they beat Werder Bremen and Sevilla. They drew with Sporting Lisbon and Atletico Madrid)
This tour gave them the confidence to achieve third and second position finishes in the league before the end of the decade.
During the 80’s they went down again, then back up again. In the 90’s they consolidated in the top flight, where in 91 Luis Barbat (their goalkeeper) finishing top scorer of the team.
In 95 they nearly won their first League title ever, when they finished joint first in the aperture, but lost the play off against Penarol.
The new century saw them go down again and spend 2 season in Primera B, before returning to the top division with an unbeaten campaign.
Also this century brought a progressive thinking president with the ambition to take the club to new levels and play in continental competition. They managed that for the first time in 2009 (copa sudamericana) and 2011 (copa libertadores).
They have just finished 11th on the last Uruguayan League.
Their stadium is located in the neighbourhood of Belvedere in Montevideo.
Their nickname is the “negriazules” (the blackish blue) because of their strip colours.
Their derby is against Defensor de Montevideo

Performance investigation of a micro-tubular flame-assisted fuel cell stack with 3,000 rapid thermal cycles — Arizona State University
Performance investigation of a micro-tubular flame-assisted fuel cell stack with 3,000 rapid thermal cycles
Ryan J. Milcarek, Michael J. Garrett, Thomas S. Welles, Jeongmin Ahn
Solid oxide fuel cell research and development has faced challenges with slow startup, slow shutdown and a limited number of thermal cycles, which hinders the technology in areas like micro-combined heat and power. A novel micro combined heat and power system, based on a boiler/hot water heater with integrated micro-tubular flame assisted fuel cells (mT-FFCs), is proposed which requires rapid startup, shutdown and thousands of thermal cycles. A 9 cell mT-FFC stack is developed and operated in a two-stage combustor. Rapid startup and shutdown of the fuel cells is demonstrated. The first-stage combustor is ignited, turned off and re-ignited for a total of 3000 on/off, thermal cycles. A maximum heating rate of 966 °C.min−1 and a maximum cooling rate of 353 °C.min−1 is achieved while thermal cycling. Despite the presence of CO in the exhaust, the anode remains porous and crack free after ∼150 h of thermal cycling testing. The mT-FFC stack continues to generate significant power, even after completing the cycling test, and a low voltage degradation rate is reported.

On my quest to health, joy, and serenity I decided to participate in Marilu's "Dear Diary ~ 12 for 12" online class. I've mentioned Marilu's website previously and have been a member for 7 years. Gleaning ooodles of information, friendships, and support. This current online course is nice and short - 12 days (even I can do that!) Simply it's a support group to help each other with 12 healthy habits for 12 days - and these healthy habits don't need to be daily.
I thought I'd list my "12 for 12" for accountability and also to encourage YOU to join along also! So here is my list of 12:
2) no alcohol during the weekdays
4) make personal time w/hubby
5) clean/declutter 15 min. per day
6) moisturize daily
7) post on the Marilu boards daily
8) do something fun daily
9) eat greens
10) eat fruit first thing in the am
What would your 12 be?

We'll, I'm back from vacation and almost back in the swing of things...only 2 more loads of laundry (after the dozen I've done since Sunday evening) Whew, why is it that vacations are sooo much work? There's something wrong with this. The vacation elves should swoop in and clean the house and do the laundry and organize all the stuff whilst you sleep the evening after you arrive~am I correct? Anywhoo, they must be off on the other side of the world, because obviously they have missed my house.
I'm super excited to share my vacation stories, pictures, etc. with all of you, but it will take me a while because my vacation elves are MIA ~!

Kyrie, Eleison!: Semper Reformanda?
If you make it an article of faith that your articles of faith are correct, or if you are required to confess that your confessions are correct, then isn't semper reformanda (the church reformed and always to be reformed) pretty much ruled out, at least as far as doctrine is concerned?
All that can be reformed, far as I can tell, is practice.
But a creedal error cannot be admitted or corrected. Whatever the Reformers didn't catch in time is now locked in. Am I missing something here? Or can something still be done to make a more thoroughgoing job of the Reformation?
I think you might have the wrong verbs running things. Through the Church God is always at work re-forming us, re-shaping us, con-forming us into the image of His beloved Son. Since that task on earth is never done, His Church's reformation task is ongoing. What get's dicey is when the Church recognizes in her own outward and visible life (expressed in her institutions) a contradiction between her inward and invisible life - her life in Christ - and such contradictions, when they rise, call always for correction, for re-forming and con-forming of her outward life to her true and never changing inward life: communion with the Father through the Incarnate Son and in the Holy Spirit.
Ack! I meant to write the wrong NOUNS running the verbs. GRR!
May 1, 2008 at 12:07 PM
Yeah, that's what I mean. I think. You can change your institutions, you can change your personal and/or corporate praxis, but what about your doctrine? What if THAT should need reform?
Well, I'm reminded of Krauth's words about our Symbols. It's not that we say that they couldn't err; it's that we say that they didn't err. They're not inspired, and they could be wrong; but we've not been persuaded yet that they ARE wrong.
Isn't it a bit the same in Orthodoxy? The belief is solidly there that what has been received is God's truth and cannot be diminished or augmented, though it can be more deeply understood, lived, and sung.
On thing is, for us, "truth" is not a set of doctrines, but the Person of Jesus Christ. He is Truth. Doctrines describe Him. He never changes, but descriptions of Him (doctrines) always have infinite room for improvement in theory, although limited room for improvement given the constraints of language.
Another thing is, the Orthodox Church hasn't "painted herself into a corner" on very many details of things, though. Except basic Christology and Triadology. There are zillions of things on which she has made no official pronouncements.
But what nouns do you think I am missing that I ought to have, or have that I ought not have?
And I'm still not clear, but it sounds to me like your confirming what I said, that you can't "reform" your doctrine. Is that correct?
So semper reformanda refers to:
(a) persons
(c) practices
but not to doctrine, right?
Not to doctrine in the sense of that which has been divinely revealed in and through Him who is the Truth Incarnate, which we apprehend by the grace and light of the Holy Spirit. But there IS a distinction between that revealed Truth in Jesus and how we think about and process that truth. The Church historically developed ways of speaking that she recognized as "sound" because they fit with that Truth. But she also recognized that new ways would be needed at times. Wasn't it St. Hilary who said that the heretics compel us to put into words things that should be left unsaid? Something like that. So to safeguard the primal truth that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of the Living God, the very Life of the Father in human flesh and blood, the Church has constructed, under the Spirit's guidance, her confessions. They largely serve as "fences" - apophatic, I think you'd call it. But they seek to preserve the Mystery of Godliness by not positively defining. When a new error creeps up, the Church may need to revise her confession and come up with the language that can safeguard against it. In that sense, the schemata of the doctrine may be changeable, in order to safeguard the unchangeable Truth confessed within it, and yet who always is beyond confession and being.
But the truth is that truly new errors haven't seem to crop up. The same old errors persist: Pelagianism, Manichaeism, Nestorianism, and so on. Against these the Church's doctrine seems adequately and more than adequately confessed in the Symbols. So the doctrine is not reformable in the sense that the need to reform, to reshape it to counter a new error, seems unlikely to arise.
Possible, but unlikely and unneeded.
By the way, you might be interested in how our Synodical Explanation to Luther's Small Catechism defines the faith:
Question 1: "What is Christianity?"
Answer 1: "Christianity is the life and salvation God has given in and through Jesus Christ."
"Does that make any sense?"
Not really, not to me.
I notice you didn't include papism in your list of errors. The Reformers corrected some of that, but what if it turns out they weren't thorough enough? What if there are some aspects of papism they didn't catch, they (having been brought up in it, after all) accidentally bought into? Is it too late, now, to reform those doctrinal errors? Can that kind of reforming be ongoing, or is it all set in stone by now?
What particular aspects of papism do you think the Lutherans unwittingly retained? I would suspect you'd say the penal atonement, though I'd invite a consideration of how they kept it running right alongside of Christus victor and never supplanting it, but filling in the wider picture, if you will. But aside from that, what else?

Previously, I have added a little Music Monday note to the end portion of my Monday posts. Just to SHARE what I am listening to. Here. Here. Here.
But I found some music that is hauntingly beautiful and I felt it NEEDED. REQUIRED. more than a blurb. And when I say I found what I mean is that Mr. Smith found it and I am taking credit for it. I truly am enchanted so I am glad he discovered it and shared with me this weekend.
The duo is The Civil Wars. You can listen to their music on their site. Don’t ask me to choose a favorite song from their album, BARTON HOLLOW, I can’t choose. The duo is Joy Williams, a Californian that moved to Nashville and John Paul White an Alabaman. I just had to mention you know when greatness comes out of the South. Represent.

Format:Kindle Edition Five people go hiking on a beautiful day in the Colorado mountains. They have lunch by a mountain lake and then the unthinkable happens. They are caught in a massive rock slide. Two of them barely escape and go for help.The story is told from the five different points of view. One is a victim who survived, though injured, and is trying to stay alive. The group leader escaped, but is very traumatized. Then there are the family members of the hikers. Each person had different reactions to the tragedy, and the way those stories were interwoven makes this much more than an adventure story.Some families cling together and overcome their sorrow, some desperately try to use the tragedy for their own gain. The characterizations were well developed and their back stories made me really care about each one.There's an unexpected twist after four days, which was particularly satisfying. The telling from different points of view really added to reading experience.Highly recommended for almost any reader.
Format:Kindle Edition This story is told by various people whose lives are affected by the Rockfall. There is a complete lack of tension, because whilst the families are undergoing all kinds of hell, the reader is aware that the survivor has made it (otherwise she would not be telling her story)On the sidelines, the family of one of the deceased accept an offer to appear on TV, having been offered a huge amount of cash to tell their story. This brings about some condemnation for being in bad taste, whilst others are more understanding. One good thing about this book is that it is unlikely to be made into a Hollywood "disaster movie".
Our lives can change in a heartbeat...
- Published on Amazon.com Format:Kindle Edition|Verified Purchase Three women and two men go hiking in the Colorado Rockies; a man and a woman make it out to call for help after a huge rockside impacts the other hikers. In the blink of an eye so many lives were changed.I thought this was an exceptionally well written story. It's not too long BUT it's just the right length. Crisp prose, very believable characters and dialogue - I felt like I could be reading a non-fiction account of just such an accident.Each chapter was narrated by either a survivor or the family of a survivor and it took a few chapters to get the characters straight in my mind but once I did, I enjoyed this tale very much.It was interesting to see how the different characters dealt with the tragedy - the grief, the survivors' remorse, the terror.This is an excellent book for teens through adults in my opinion.
live as fully as you can
- Published on Amazon.com Format:Paperback I bought this book right away when it became available, because I enjoyed the author's earlier book so much. As a survivor of a much less horrifying mountain accident, but one that involved boulders, I was surprised to find myself unable to open the cover when it arrived. It took many months before I could begin. I read the first 30 pages in what seemed like a few minutes. The description of the accident was so vivid that I had to put the book away for another week. Then a funny thing happened. People who engage in outdoor activities that can involve risk tend to think nothing bad will happen to them, even when they know otherwise intellectually. When something bad does happen to you, and you return to the activity afterwards, you have a much more realistic vision of your place in the world. After finishing this book, I realized I still had not acquired an understanding of what it's like on the other side - processing the fact that a loved one will not come home, or that a person you were hiking with died while you lived. The book does a remarkable job of presenting the details of that process, and how some people manage it better than others. Definitely a book that will make you think, and hopefully one that will make you want to live as fully as you can.
Engaging second novel
- Published on Amazon.com Format:Paperback I had been anticipating this author's second novel and I was not disappointed! Once again, I could not put the book down and finished it in one afternoon. I enjoyed the way the characters were developed through each of their points of view. This was a suspenseful, believable and emotional story of a tragic event that affects each character in a different way. I found myself experiencing the anxiety of those waiting for news of who survived the rock slide, the pain of loss for the families and friends of those who did not, and ultimate joy when reminded of the resiliency of the human spirit. I look forward to reading Diane's upcoming novel!
A worthy second novel
- Published on Amazon.com Format:Paperback Having read this author's first novel, Faces, I was happy to see that she has followed up with another entirely believable story about how different people cope with sudden tragedy. The characters are well drawn, the writing is crisp, and the storyline is one anyone can identify with; an outing with friends gone horribly wrong. I found the book touching and honest, written by someone who knows the subject matter quite well. I look forward to the next one.
- Published on Amazon.com Format:Kindle Edition|Verified Purchase This book was a total surprise for me.I read a lot of horror and thriller stories and that is what I expected. I simply didn't expect such an awesome and amazing tale to be partnered with the thriller,and yes the horror too.I truly pray that the events portrayed never happen ever again to anyone.Knowing full well, even as I do so, Mother Nature will see to it that this prayer goes unanswered.Be sure to read this book..it does not disappoint.

US7114318B2 - Height-of-cut adjustment system for reel mower - Google Patents

A system adjusts the height-of-cut of a cutting reel unit. The system includes a cutting reel; a first frame supported on at least one support element that is supported on, and is movable along, the ground; and a second frame supporting the cutting reel. The system further includes an actuator that has a first portion connected to the first frame and a second portion connected to the second frame, wherein a distance between the first and second portions is adjustable. The actuator includes a motive mechanism that is activated to adjust the distance. The system can include at least one strut pivotally connected to the first frame and pivotally connected to the second frame on a second side of the second frame opposite to the first side. The strut extends between the first frame and the second frame. The strut defines the rotation of the second frame with respect to the first frame as the relative elevation of the second frame is adjusted with respect to the first frame.
The invention relates to cutting reel units for mowers, and particularly mechanisms and methods for adjusting cutting reel units.
Reel adjustments are checked regularly and adjustments are conducted as a preventative measure to ensure optimum cut quality, as a reactive measure when poor cut quality is detected, and when reel damage occurs. Reel adjustments are also necessary when a cutting reel unit is “re-tasked,” in effect, adjusted for cutting another type of grass or grass to be cut to a different height. For example, a cutting reel unit could be re-tasked from an adjustment appropriate for a golf course fairway to adjustment appropriate for a golf course green, the two areas having different grass height requirements. However, re-tasking a cutting reel unit is time-consuming. To avoid re-tasking cutting reel unit, many golf courses have cutting reel units or cutting machines which remain designated or set for a particular grass or area requirement, in effect, a designated group of cutting units for different areas of the golf course. This technique necessitates multiple cutting units or cutting machines. Multiple cutting units or machines can result in higher capital costs and maintenance costs.
The invention provides a system for adjusting height-of-cut of the reel of a cutting reel unit. The cutting reel unit can be carried by, or attached to, a vehicle, such as a tractor, singularly or as one of a plurality of cutting reel units, or can be incorporated into a riding mower, a walking mower or a ride-on mower, also singularly or as one of a plurality of cutting reel units.
The system can include at least one strut pivotally connected to the first frame and pivotally connected to the second frame. The strut length between pivotal connections to the first and second frames, defines the slight rotation of the second frame with respect to the first frame to change the “angle of attack,” or approach angle of the reel and bedknife to the blades of grass, to be at an advantageous angle over the range of the height-of-cut adjustment.
FIG. 3 is a fragmentary sectional view taken generally along line 3—3 of FIG. 1, with portions of the cutting unit removed for clarity of description;
FIG. 7 is a fragmentary, partial sectional view taken generally along offset line 7—7 of FIG. 5;
The struts 36, 36 (FIGS. 1 and 2) prevent excessive forward or rearward tipping of the inside frame 18 lifted or lowered at the rear thereof and ensures a substantially straight vertical lifting or lowering of the inside frame 18. The geometry of the frames 18, 22, struts 36, 36 and actuators 30, 32 advantageously slightly tip the reel and bedknife forward with rising height-of-cut. This change in the “angle of attack” results in a more effective cutting.
FIG. 3A illustrates schematically the side plate 106 and a profile outline of the reel 12 wherein the height-of-cut “h” from grade “g” and an offset “x” from the reel centerline “c” are shown. The attack angle “a” is also shown. Effective guideline maximum attack angles “a” with respect to height-of-cut are:

Chez Loulou: 5 Paris Favorites
Labels: Fromagerie Laurent Dubois, Juveniles Wine Bar, Musée de l'Orangerie, Paris, Popelini, Promenade Plantée
Now my mouth is watering. That duck looks amazing and the cheeses as well..... Have a good day Diane
Very delicious post. I'll have the duck pls.
Numbers 2-4 are some of my favorites! Laurent Dubois is usually my first stop when I arrive in Paris!
Do you have a time of day that you like the Promenade Plantee the best? I'm thinking of photos and the lighting. The last time I was there, I believe in the afternoon, the sun was so bright and it was hard to take photos. Tough problem, yes? LOL
That duck was so amazing! Now I'm thinking another dinner at Juveniles is in order!
The cheese at Dubois is incredible.
I've never been to la Promenade in the morning and I'm sure it would be lovely in the evening as the sun is going down. Lots of good shadows and light.

Crockett's Corner: Riding out the storm.....
Bags packed - motor home ready, house sitters waiting but we're not leaving anytime soon :( Today was supposed to be the day we left for Daytona Beach.....yes, supposed to be. Unfortunately we are right in the bull's eye of more than 2 feet of snow. I like snow but this year we have had more than our share so I'm pretty much over it and ready for Spring. Now we sit and wait for this to stop (sometime tomorrow) so Ronnie and Jeremy can get all the parking lots clear. Then, we will be on the road heading to the sunshine state!
We can't complain though, we have made the best of our situation. We kept Kayden last night and have enjoyed having her here with us today...she had Mickey Mouse waffles this morning We moved the cars around before the snow came (notice the asphalt) we read some books... we watched out the window we played with some 'toys' :) then we went outside...wow, lots of snow! Boy, it is really snowing! and what a difference from this morning's picture.
And now Daddy came and picked up the princess and we won't see her for over a week. For us, it's back to last minute stuff and cleaning so I'm ready whenever the bus is ready to pull out :)!

Meme #7 | Tuesdays with Dorie
We all have one. That one recipe that just never works the way you want it to. Or the one thing you try to cook or bake repeatedly with meh results. Confess. What’s your food nemesis?

Omelettes. I just can’t do it. I think I need to take a class or something.

Jessica-Out of all the things I make, eggs are something that REALLY difficult for me. I finally was able to make an omelette when I took a peek at the Clinton ST. Baking Company. I make really good scrambled eggs, but omelettes are really difficult for me, but are somewhat easier now. I can feel your pain. Wait til you see my post below.

This is so embarassing to admit. I have issues with hardboiled eggs. Most of the time, they are okay, but some of the time, when peeling them, I lose a lot of the white. I’m careful to make them the same way each time-so, I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong. I submerge the eggs in cold water, bring them to a boil. Cover them and pull them off the heat. Time them for 15 minutes. Then I put them in an ice bath for a bit, dry them off, then refrigerate.
I also cannot make a crepe to save my life…..
And yet I can make the same meals over and over again with great success, tasty and somewhat pretty baked goods can be repeated. But I can’t hard boil an egg with consistent results. It makes me want to scream.

I think it has something to do with the age of the egg! It’s best to use older eggs (though not spoiled, obviously! Just not super-fresh) for easiest peeling. So it may not have to do with your method at all, just the age of the eggs.
Reply ↓	Jessica on August 28, 2011 at 9:02 am said:
Hardboiled eggs I can do! I do closer to 12 minutes (per Martha Stewart) and I find that’s enough. Peeling is hit or miss though. And I finally learned to make crepes this summer – but it’s so tedious to make them one at a time!

Most chocolate chip cookie recipes go flat! I’m fine if I add oatmeal, coconut etc. But plain chocolate chip cookies just don’t work. I blame it on my altitude but when I make altitude corrections they still spread and are too flat.
That’s ok I seem to make plenty of other fattening treats.
Reply ↓	Katrina on August 29, 2011 at 2:19 pm said:
CCC’s are my favorite thing to make. I have settled with the NYT cookie recipe, with my own adaptations. Mine are never flat. The recipe uses bread flour and cake flour. Maybe try that. And the dough is chilled, which I also think helps because I just made a batch last week and baked them immediately and they are flatter than usual–but still good.

This is exactly my problem! The closest I get are when I cheat and do part in the oven (bacon or popovers or something), and even then I struggle to time the other stuff. My other challenge is a raspberry cranberry jello salad my aunt makes. I can not get the jello to set. It’s always a little frustrating since my impression of jello is that it’s supposed to be a fail-safe, make-ahead type thing.
Reply ↓	juju73 on August 29, 2011 at 5:09 pm said:
Katrina-I once worked at a bed and breakfast and this was difficult. We always started with the meat. Cook your bacon or sausage first and put it on an ovenproof dish. Stick it in a 200 degree oven. Do the same with pancakes or hash browns. Keep those warm in the same oven. Finish with the eggs. If you feel the need to have something like toast, make a batch of biscuits in advance, bake them, freeze them, then rewarm them in the oven while you’re cooking the meat, and pull them out once the eggs are done. Everything will be warm at the same time. I hope this helps. :)

Made a stupid mistake with bookings and had to take the one which had a free room. This one was too expensive for what I got.Top floor was supposed to be a quiet one, but the ventilation fan engine was on top of my room. Woke up at 3.oo and goodbye to the sleep. Some renovation needed, too.

Jane Is The One: cosmopolitan lawyers
Interesting. In the 1930s, the word "Cosmopolitan" was not-too-subtle code for "Jewish". I wonder if Mrs T knew that?
And so say all of us ( those of us who are not rabid fascist pigs, however).
Badinter is Jewish. His parents came from what is now Moldova.
Jane, the abolition of the Death Penalty in France was before 1981, more late seventies. A serious crime was committed in a small town East of Paris. A child died. Shall pass on the gory details . The public was gagging for the guilty one to be executed. Offices and factories were empty on the day of the jury's verdict with local mothers sitting on the steps of the local Justice court. "Prison a vie" was delivered as a judgement as Death Penalty was just being abolished through French Parliament. The whole of France had its eyes on the town. Its people will never forget. Debates still take place as to whether we should have abolished the Death Penalty. I would talk to your friends outside of Strasbourg Jane. You will get the feel on it. Strasbourg not really being representative of french moods and inclinations. Remember it's Alsace after all!On another note, I do not know if that man is still alive in prison or not and whether he has the right to vote. I knew the parents of the child and the effect it had on them. They died inside.. Am I on subject?
Yep I know. Bill passed august 1981, became law October 1981.
Jane. How ironic it was this same man who defended. In 2000, the then Justice Minister was looking into the case again. The child's parents did not want the prisoner to be freed. Ever. The Justice Minister did not waver on this then. Does this give him the right to vote?
More Common Purpose rose fertilizer.
Oh dear, someone is going completely off topic, see anon 19.25...a gardener obviously. Likes to get his/her hands dirty by the sound of it. And smelly.Yuk.
