Success! Michael Mulholland
Michael Mulholland, 35, of Haslett, is a software project manager. When he topped the scales at 350 pounds, he knew he had to make a change. Through trial and error, a Keto diet and passion for finding what kind of eating and fitness works for him, he's made great strides — with plenty more to come. Here's his story:
What made you want to change your lifestyle? There was no specific catalyst. I knew I weighed too much at 350 pounds. I was embarrassed and had made a few half-hearted attempts to lose weight in the past with either no, or at best, temporary success.
How did you start on your journey
When did you add exercise? My wife and I had talked about taking a yoga class together so we started a beginner class one evening a week. I also went to Planet Fitness and started weight lifting three times a week in the mornings before work. I didn't follow any particular plan, wound up with a cobbled together push/pull/legs split. Over the next few months I started going four, then five mornings a week. In addition to adding in more weight lifting days, my wife and I graduated from the beginner's class to a more advanced yoga class and added another one so we were going twice a week. I decided I wanted to run, not because I enjoy running (I still don't really) but because I genuinely enjoyed the idea of me being the type of person who goes out for a run. Weirdest motivation ever, but there it is.

Send an e-mail to Tim at firstname.lastname@example.com. Include your name, phone number and why you think your candidate is a Success! story.
What were some of the challenges you faced? OOne major challenge I faced with Keto, specifically, was finding out how many carbohydrates are hidden in foods you wouldn't expect. This led me to download the MyFitnessPal app and actually start logging food. Weight lifting, and other health decisions presented the exact same problems. Any weight lifting routine you put together is going to have proponents and naysayers; any exercise article is going to tell you what you're doing is probably wrong or could be optimized. I can find 10 articles rabidly refuting almost anything with a 5-minute internet search. Over time I got tired of doing the research to figure out the next routine so I switched gyms to M43 Fitness and handed the decisions over to a qualified trainer.
Any future goals? Last October I wanted to focus on building muscle mass. I am working with a trainer and focusing on slowly upping my calorie intake. I'm learning to rely less on numbers and more on how I actually feel to guide when and how much to eat, which is hard because I've spent the last two and a half years tracking about 85-90 percent of everything I ate. I don't have any specific fitness goals except build muscle mass.
What advice do you have for others? Keep trying different things until something clicks. If what you are doing doesn't work for you and you've given it a genuine effort, then maybe it isn't for you. Don't be afraid to come back to something and give it another try later. There are an infinite number of ways to change your diet and exercise. There is no right way for everyone, there is only a right way for you. Pick one small change you can make now and maintain. one, there is only a right way for you. Pick one small change you can make now and maintain.


text: Zorenith 0 Report post Posted June 4, 2014 (edited) Hello, recently came back to wow from a long break and began gearing my destro lock. Sitting at 554 equipped ilevel with the cloak and it seems my dps is lower than it should be. I think some of the issue could be in my opener, sometimes i get unlucky and don't get a PBI proc early on and i can't seem to recover from that later on. I try to pop DSI when I get a PBI proc, although as the fight goes on my PBI procs start to come up before DSI is off cooldown (Probably due to popping DSI too late?). I follow the standard rotation, casting Chaos bolts only if I get a trinket proc or i'm above 3.5 embers but sometimes I go a while without a Toxic Power proc and Incinerate pulls ahead of my Chaos Bolts in total damage. Here are some logs from a 10 man Normal SoO I ran tonight, I noticed my Immolate uptime was pretty low on Nazgrim, I'll have to work on that.

"Resolved, never to do anything, which I should be afraid to do, if it were the last hour of my life." Jonathan Edwards

Life getting busy...
Believe it or not, I have only started one class thus far. I have been working a whole lot though. School is going to be really expensive since I am going to three schools and taking excess credits. God will provide though. He always does! :) I had a great opportunity the other day to talk with a guy that I kind of work with. Basically, he works on the computer fixing side of the company, and I work on the programming side. He is definitely unsaved, but seems very open. He shared with me some recent life struggles that he has had. He wouldn't strike you as a nice person based on ear rings and stuff, but there is something behind all of that. It was definitely a step in the right direction. :) I had just been praying for opportunities too! God is awesome! Please keep him in prayer... and me as I plan on doing some follow up with him. I'd like to invite him to church. I also talked with a guy that has fallen away from the Lord. I had talked with him a couple months back, and had a very difficult time getting a hold of him after that. It seems like his heart is changing. He said that he would probably go to church if he wasn't working so much... which was a big step from what it said last time I talked with him. God is working! Anyway, I am exhausted and need to finish homework. I spent under an hour home between 7 am and 11:30 pm. It's been a full day, but a very good one. I hope to update this a little bit more often. It seems like I am finding lots of other things to do right now, but I find that this helps me to remember the things that God has done much like the Israelites had all those feasts and stuff to remember what God had done for them in the past. It is important!

He was obviously proud to call himself a fishing fanatic. He read the latest fishing magazines and used them to purchase the best lures and fishing rods available. He bought a new fishing boat and familiarized himself with fishing technique. But if you looked inside this man's home, you would not find any trophy fish mounted on a wall in his living room. If you examined his fishing boat, you would not detect the pungent odor of gasoline mixed with lake water. If you probed these apparent contradictions, you would find he never caught a single fish. In fact, his boat never even left the dock. For all of the fishing enthusiast's zeal, he never put it to use in a practical way.
"Christian enthusiasts" who never serve the Lord or win people to Christ are no different than the excited-but-idle fisherman. Instead of merely reading and hearing the Word of God, we need to be busy doing it. Instead of merely learning how to overcome sin in our lives, we need to take active steps toward victory. Instead of merely studying effective principles for sharing our faith, we need to put them in practice and witness. The world will not be won by seeing our shiny, new Bibles and Christian books. They will not be impressed by our Bible conferences and church functions. They will only be convinced of our authenticity when we "go fishing."
Are you a spiritual enthusiast? I encourage you to go fishing. Let your light shine at your home, in your workplace, and in your neighborhood. Boldly share the gospel with others. Demonstrate the difference Christ has made in your life by responding in gentleness to others who disagree with you — and then they will see you are a real fisherman, not just a casual fan.
Devotional by Pastor Jim Scudder, Jr.

DOPPIAA is the story of two friends and the fraternal and cultural mould in which they were born and raised: two acquainted families with esteem for each other, who have enjoyed each other's company for years. One family has a generations-long involvement in the business of elegance and fine dressing. The other family has internationality, good taste and a great curiosity for fashion in its blood. Precisely from this intertwined friendship was born contemporaneously in the minds of Alain and Albert, the two founders, the idea of creating the brand DOPPIAA as a conveyer of their passions, savoir faire and solidly Mediterranean aesthetics. The results are a relaxed, cheerful and colourful classiness that offers joyful dressing as an expression of one's best appearance. This is style for the whole family, for all ages and all occasions. The pleasure of refined clothing by DOPPIAA is grounded on two essential cornerstones: 100% Italian manufacturing, and the painstakingly executed pinpointing and selecting of the highest quality fabrics with the most particular characteristics, wherever they may originate.
DOPPIAA stands for the twin initials of an imaginary alphabet of masculine style. DOPPIAA is for gentlemen of all ages who enjoy dressing with distinction, high quality and originality, all the while remaining utterly themselves. DOPPIAA stands for suits, jackets, shirts, sweatshirts, polo shirts, knitwear and accessories that you've always wished to wear. DOPPIAA stands for generations of diverse men who share the twin passions of looking good and living well. DOPPIAA stands for a love of details from A upwards, and the obstinate search for top-grade raw materials. DOPPIAA stands for beautiful things that are well made and long lasting – at least twice as long as usual. Doppiaa places the accent on Italianity, sartorial suavity, versatility and wearability. DOPPIAA, because elegance is not explained – it is a natural inclination. DOPPIAA is an invitation to go for an encore of all the best.

Let's leave for our children, a planet clean and pure,
Let's leave for our children, a meadow lush with life…
When the children visited Tzu Chi's recycling centre in Taman Mas Jaya, Muar, the volunteers explained to them using a video to show that the Earth is sick and disasters are constantly happening. Therefore, it is everyone's responsibility to do recycling. The footage, "Together We Save the Earth" showed the many disasters caused by the imbalance of the Four Elements, reminding everyone to do recycling before it is too late.
"Boys and girls, do you love Mother Earth?" A volunteer asked the children.
The children responded aloud, "Yes, we do!" The volunteer then showed a video of how garbage carelessly thrown by people go into the ocean and cause the death of marine animals that mistook the garbage as their food. The purpose was to remind the children not to litter.
Then, through a video from the "Safeguarding Lives with Love" series produced by Da Ai TV, the children learnt about the health hazards of using disposable food containers. Volunteers also introduced recycling concepts by sharing with them the "135, Simple Steps to Love the Earth" (see Note 1) and the "10-Finger Formula" (see Note 2). The children were also shown models of garbage patch and landfill, and the products of DA.Ai Technology.
In addition, the children had a 40-minute hands-on session on recyclable sorting. Bottles, cans, plastics, paper, and other recyclables are the items we use in our daily life and which are familiar even to the children. Volunteers made it clear to the children that a recycling centre is a place to collect and sort out recyclables, and not a place for garbage disposal.
Nurturing good habits from young
Teacher Siow Siew Ping from the kindergarten is also a Tzu Chi volunteer. She said the kindergarten has also implemented environmental education and she found that the children are open to the knowledge and are fast learners. They would share their knowledge with their parents, and some parents told the teachers that they were surprised by how much their kids knew about environmental protection. They also concurred with the kindergarten's implementation of environmental education.
Teacher Siow felt that everyone should love and protect Mother Earth, and it should be instilled from an early age. For that reason, the parents were very supportive of this study tour. Other than learning about environmental protection, the children were also taught to do good deeds. Each of them brought along RM10 to donate towards the construction fund of Muar Tzu-Chi Jing Si Hall and disaster relief in Indonesia.
Teacher Siow believed that with the teachers' guidance, the children will have a deeper impression of their experiences gained from the study tour, and will share about what they have seen and learnt.
Teacher Lim Ai Nyet shared that the kindergarten often incorporates recycled handicraft-making activities in the lessons, like making paper tubes and coin banks from used items. She observed that the children enjoyed such activities and cherished their handmade recycled products. These fun and educational activities also helped create environmental awareness and inspire creative use of used items.
After visiting the recycling centre, the children have a better understanding of environmental protection and the importance of taking good care of the environment. This will be deeply imprinted in their minds and also inspire their responsibility for environmental protection.
Normally, children prefer to buy new school bags. The teachers would always remind them to cherish the things they have. Under the teachers' guidance, the children gradually understood that they should replace their school bags only when they are worn out. Eight-year-old Edwin Soh is an example, and he has learnt a lot about environmental knowledge from this study tour.
Chua Jee Moi, the stationmaster, believes that education from an early age is very important. The children can implement the environmental knowledge they have learnt in their daily life and influence their parents to do the same. She held the opinion that doing and educating should go hand-in-hand to raise environmental awareness.
She said, "Children are more receptive to what is taught and they are purer in nature." The good habits that the children develop will be with them throughout their whole life. Also, with the environmental protection concepts and sense of responsibility instilled in them, they will grow to become eco-warriors.
Note 1: "135, Simple Steps to Love the Earth" – save water by limiting tap water flow to the diameter of 1 chopstick; the 3 benefits of a vegetarian diet (slow down global warming, better health, and care for and respect the sacredness of lives); 5 things to always bring along (food container, chopsticks, cup/water bottle, handkerchief, and reusable bag).
Note 2: "10-Finger Formula – plastic bottles, glass bottles, aluminum cans, tin cans, paper, batteries, clothing, 3C products, hardware, and others.

There are 33 million Facebook accounts in the UK and 24 million of those people log in every day. It's a marketing channel like no other. Here are ten tips to get the most from your Facebook presence and get those Shares, Likes and Comments flooding in.
1. Quality not quantity
It's not about the number of followers you have. After all, many of these are no doubt non-human robots. So look to build engagement with real people who can deliver real results.
Similarly, don't bombard your followers with your usual property marketing material. It's not what they're on Facebook for - they want something personal, interesting and topical.
2. People follow helpful content
Facebook users will follow content that is insightful and clearly aimed at helping them. When you're considering posting content, ask yourself whether your followers would be interested in it. If not, don't post it.
Spark people's interest by running competitions, opinion polls and offers. You should be looking at a balance of about 80% content that you source elsewhere and curate, and 20% content that you originate.
3. It's a network - so network
Make sure that you are reaching out to local organisations such as businesses, schools, colleges, charities and sports clubs by following them and liking their posts. It puts your business firmly into that community space and positions you as a trusted "go to" brand when people need property advice. In return, they'll follow you, to find out what's going on in the property market.
4. Post regularly
To build loyalty, you need to post a couple of times a day because that's how frequently people are checking their feeds.
5. Know newsfeed times
Comments, shares, likes and click-throughs appear to be easier to get at certain times of the day. (This has been worked out despite Newsfeed's impenetrable timing algorithm).
12-3 on Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday is reckoned to get the best results for Facebook posts. On Saturday and Sunday it's 12-1 - have a go and see whether you think there's a difference.
6. Be visual
Pictures grab people's attention - even if it's only the sunrise as seen from your office! When you're sharing video, it's better not to share from YouTube - upload it in "native" video format. Facebook loves "Live" video and will promote it, increasing your reach.
7. Include calls to action that are original
The dreaded "click here for more info" isn't going to make anyone very excited - how about getting people to click through by offering them something?
8. People love infographics
Remember that infographics can be made interactive too. Nethouseprices.com does map views of sold house prices that are great for engaging followers in your locality, especially if accompanied by some informative posts.
9. It's always new to someone…
Don't worry about going back to topics you've covered before. For example, "Ten top tips for selling your home" is always going to interest someone thinking of putting their property on the market. So don't worry about replacing this with "Ten handy hints for a fast house sale" - it will still get read, followed and liked, if the advice is good.
You can also pin your most read posts to the top of your page to get the attention of new visitors.
10. Monitor and manage
Facebook's Page Insights should become your new favourite reading - this will tell you what's working and what isn't.

text: The Mission Playground renovation project is progressing and some of the new improvements will start to take shape in the coming weeks. The new sports lighting will be installed starting Oct 6th. These new lights are more energy efficient than the old ones and provide better light distribution for the sports areas which in turn allowed us to reduce the existing number of light poles by half. Less light poles means there will be less visual clutter which will help to make the renovated a park a more attractive place to visit and spend time.

|Voigtlander Vitoret 110, front view
I am not entirely sure why I bought this camera. The original thought came when I saw some Lomography 110 cartridges for sale in Snappy Snaps in Lincoln. When I saw this camera for sale on Ebay, I found myself bidding. I was the only bidder and I got the camera for £1.00 plus postage.
It is not a complicated camera. It is a black box measuring 120 mm by 25 mm by 35 mm. The lens and viewfinder (both front and back) are covered by shutters when the camera is not in use. The camera is opened by moving the film advance slider. The shutter button is on top (it is coloured grey) and the film advance (also grey) is below it. If you hold the camera in a pinch grip with your right hand, your forefinger will land on the shutter button and your thumb on the film advance slider. I don't think you could use this camera one handed as the camera needs to be steadied when winding on the film.
The lens is a Lanthar f5.6 lens - Lanthar lenses are triplets. There is no indication on the camera as to focal length but a search on Google tells me it is 24 mm - this is slightly wide for 16 mm film (normal would be about 26 mm) which is what we would expect for a point-and-shoot camera.
|Vitoret 110, rear view
The viewfinder is a reverse Galilean finder (as was usual on consumer cameras by the 1970s) and is quite large and bright with bright lines for framing - complete with close-up markings. The iris diaphragm is essentially square - so the bokeh will not be spectacular. The aperture can be altered but only by selecting weather icons. The pictorial instructions give f-numbers for these icons - sunny is f16, dull is between f11 and f8, light cloud is f5.6 all at speed 1/125 and dull cloud is f5.6 and speed 1/60.

This camera uses the 110 film cartridges which just drop into the camera - no need to connect the film to the take-up spool. Opening the camera to insert the film cartridge is not obvious. You need to press a small grey button and slightly move the end of the camera (it only moves 2 mm or so) and then lift up the back.
Using the camera is very easy, there only being three controls: shutter button, advance slider and weather selector. Opening the lens/viewfinder shutters winds on the film. This means it is important not to wind on the film if you are going to put the camera away as when you next use the camera you will waste one frame. I found I kept forgetting to alter the weather selector, but as the light was only varying between sunny and dull I am expecting the latitude of the film to cope. Actually, this raises another point. the instructions mention using 80 ASA film (or 80 ISO for modern films) but the film I am using is 200 ISO which is more than twice as fast. it remains to be seen as to what exactly this means for my final prints.
Sample pictures:
These are reasonable - particularly if you consider that back in the day, these would have been printed as 5x7 prints at the largest. Compared to a quality camera and quality film, they are a bit grainy but that is not really a proper comparison. Biggest fault was my propensity to include a thumb in the right-hand edge of the pictures!

Q Daddy: Flounder
Pax: Heisenburg, Ugly Stick, Morpheus, Johnny Gage, Coonbait, Last, Patch Adams Hoveround, Mr. Cotter, Double Check, Niles
As tradition goes with F3 (at least F3 Cape Fear), I had to make sure I was present for my birthday Q this morning (48). This was in fact the first time I have made a have been to the Battleship Q as the location is on the opposite side of town from where I live. So, I woke up a little earlier than usual and made the downtown haul.
So glad I did (even though Hoff got Hoffed to accommodate)!
Warm Up: SSH's – 48, Cotton Pickers – 24, Mountain Climbers – 24
The Thang: We started the morning off with some sprints from one block to the next. Catch a quick breath then 3 exercises with 16 reps each. For those of you who did not get it in the gloom, that adds up to 48. First exercise was focused on upper body, the second was focused on core and the third was focused on legs (call them 16's). For example, Merkins – 16, LBC's – 16, Copperhead Squats – 16. We ran then repeated this 4 or 5 times with similar exercises; Wide Arm Merkins, Diamond Merkins, Burpees, WWII sit-ups, Heels to Heaven, low plank, high plank, Squats, more Squats, Mountain Climbers, Bobby Hurley's, Flutterkicks and more! You get it.
Indian Run to Heartbreak Hill with a pit stop in front of PPD for some 16's.
Heartbreak Hill was temporarily renamed Suicide Hill this morning as we ran suicides up the hill then more 16's at the bottom. 4 sets of these and phew…time to mozy back to AO.
COT: A shout out to Ugly Stick from Mr. Kotter for making sure no man was left behind this morning. Niles led us in prayer and served up another great one reminding us how thankful we should be for the many God-given blessings we have received.
Moleskin: I absolutely could not imagine a better way than to start my 48th birthday morning than sweating it out in the gloom with my F3 Brothers! You guys make me a better man and I thank you for that! If your b-day passes and you do not Q it, you are missing something special. Make sure you don't miss that opportunity.
Ugly Stick – thanks for your help with the 6 today. Your leadership is always present
Mr. Kotter – Dude, do you have any fat on that frame of yours?
Heisenburg – pleasure seeing you albeit short…thanks for hanging for the warm-up
Morpheus – I always get a better workout with you present. Always a challenge to keep up with you
Last – perfect style on the sit-ups. Why don't you like burpees?
Gage – you are getting faster. A comment was made from one of the PAX that they liked you better when you could not run so well. Keep it up!
Coonbait – T-claps to you today, sir! Old injury resurfacing and all, you gave it 110%. MVP in my book!
Patch Adams – It was a pleasure meeting you this morning. Join us at Stingray sometime.
Hoverround – always bringing a sense of humor to the gloom. Great to see you.
Double Check – you redefined low plank today.
Niles – thanks for taking us out. You are full of spirituality.
Flounder out.

F5's Industry-Leading Application Delivery Systems Add Cloud-Scale Capabilities to Support the Most
F5's Industry-Leading Application Delivery Systems Add Cloud-Scale Capabilities to Support the Most Demanding Infrastructures
F5's ScaleN technology enables customers to deliver services with new levels of performance, security, and orchestration for physical, virtual, and cloud resources
SEATTLE--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- F5 Networks, Inc. (NASDAQ: FFIV), the global leader in Application Delivery Networking, today announced enhanced software and hardware offerings across its product portfolio to extend its dominant lead in the market. F5 delivers unprecedented performance and flexibility for today's most complex and demanding infrastructures, including cloud environments.
F5's physical and virtual Application Delivery Controller (ADC) offerings help organizations easily orchestrate, accelerate, and secure the delivery of business-critical applications and network services while driving down costs, as required by today's agile, adaptive cloud networks. F5's new platform-based systems are designed around the company's unique, field-proven intelligent services framework, which gives customers a set of programmable, extensible services for on-demand scalability.
F5 extends its technology leadership with:
- Unrivaled ADC Processing Power for Enterprises and Service Providers
The new VIPRION® 4800 chassis is built to handle performance levels previously unseen in the industry, applying intelligent services at rates exceeding 20 million layer 7 requests per second and 160 Gbps of SSL bulk throughput (over 4x the nearest competitive offering). With these levels of performance, organizations can effortlessly scale application delivery services within the most demanding clouds and data centers.
- Enhanced BIG-IP®Virtual Editions with Broad Hypervisor Support
F5's virtual ADCs now provide up to 3 Gbps of throughput and support a full range of hypervisors and virtualized environments, including Amazon Web Services and VMware vCloud Suite, as well as Microsoft Hyper-V, Citrix XenServer, and KVM/Linux. This gives customers limitless flexibility in leveraging cloud and virtualization technologies to efficiently support their business.
- Leading ADC Performance at the Entry Level and Above
F5 provides the highest performing entry-level appliances to enable customers to "start light and grow right" with the best price/performance value available for ADCs today. F5 is adding the following products to its BIG-IP hardware lineup:
- BIG-IP 2000 series, offering advanced functionality and setting the standard as the first entry-level ADC with 10 GbE interfaces
- BIG-IP 4000s platform, with the 4000 series handling up to 850,000 L7 requests per second for best-in-class performance
- BIG-IP 10200v platform, with vCMP® capabilities, 40 GbE interfaces, and leading high-end performance
Although point products may solve specific network requirements today, a piecemeal approach to networking increases overall costs, introduces complexity, and imposes unnecessary limitations on scale and capacity. In recent years, the widespread adoption of F5's ADCs has been driven by the company's ability to address customers' current demands and future business needs in parallel.
Designed to provide an intelligent services framework, VIPRION and BIG-IP products enable organizations to efficiently consolidate multiple core network and security functions such as application acceleration, global load balancing, web application firewall, application delivery firewall, and other advanced capabilities. Additionally, F5 technologies like iRules® and iApps® enable teams to fine-tune and auto-instantiate custom layer 4-7 services.
F5's new ADC offerings provide:
- Dynamic Use of IT Resources with F5's Innovative ScaleNTechnology
F5's ScaleN™ serves as an important element of the company's unified platform approach. ScaleN is the industry's only technology that allows an ADC system to scale dramatically, even with core acceleration and security functionality enabled. All other competing products suffer incremental processing penalties when supporting additional features or running multiple services at once.
ScaleN intelligently allocates resources through multi-tenant virtualization and the ability to scale systems up, down, in, and out with complete device flexibility and resilience. This enables organizations to simplify their IT infrastructures, make existing technology investments more efficient, and better support dynamic resource models and cloud initiatives—all while delivering maximum availability and uptime for crucial applications. The F5 ADC products introduced today are all ScaleN-enabled.
- Deployment Options to Support Physical, Virtual, and Cloud Environments
Traditional practices have called for organizations to build physical data centers using a collection of hardware devices. However, today's customers are choosing to deploy physical and virtual solutions alongside public and private clouds to dynamically support fluctuating resource needs, improve efficiency, and reduce costs. F5's offerings enable organizations to select solutions that fit their business priorities and technology requirements, without sacrificing the performance and control that can be essential to their operations. F5's new products push the boundaries of what the industry can expect from an ADC, raising the standard for other vendors. In addition, F5 has also increased the capabilities of its virtual ADCs, making it easier for customers to combine F5's application delivery technologies with leading cloud providers like Amazon Web Services.
Supporting Quotes
"We remain focused on offering the most capable physical and virtual ADCs to meet the growing needs of organizations, regardless of which IT and data center architectures they choose to pursue," said Karl Triebes, EVP of Product Development and CTO at F5. "With our broad portfolio of solutions, we offer efficient ways for customers to consolidate IT services in-house, as well as high-performance platforms that cloud providers can use to support their clients' most demanding resource needs. Either way, organizations using F5 will have fewer devices to manage, and at a much lower cost than competitors charge for similar capabilities."
"Given the recent Cisco news, we were looking to replace our ACE deployment with a solution that would easily scale to keep up with the growth of our business," said Brantley Peers, Sr. Network Engineer at Arise Virtual Solutions, a leading provider of virtual business process outsourcing and contact center services that has seen its business grow significantly over the past year. "With F5's advanced ADCs, we can support an increasing volume of web traffic and ensure the application availability our clients require. Looking forward, F5 also gives us a platform to expand availability, access, and security capabilities as needed."
"In a competitive industry, you need to be able to rapidly scale web services to keep up with demand and consumer preferences," said Lineu Cabral, IT Infrastructure Manager at ViajaNet, one of the largest online ticketing agencies in Brazil and provider of travel services. "F5's ADCs provide us with enhanced performance, scalability, and security, including SSL encryption for all online transactions. Since deploying the BIG-IP platform, we've been able to forego purchasing additional equipment and reduce the number of servers required to support our business by a third."
"Recent market events have put an increasing spotlight on the role of the ADC and represent an ideal time for enterprises to rethink their requirements for this portion of the data center," wrote Mark Fabbi, VP at Gartner, Inc., in a recent report. "The features of advanced ADCs are compelling for those that make an effort to shift their thinking and organizational boundaries. In nearly all cases, the small incremental investment in advanced ADC platforms is easily compensated by reduced requirements for servers and bandwidth, and by the clear improvements in end-user experience and productivity."1
"With F5's new 2000 series, we can offer a full-featured ADC to our clients at an entry-level price point, with a scalable platform to support growth," said Jim Quarantillo, Principal/Owner at GuidePoint Security. "We anticipate significant interest from customers looking for leading availability and traffic management, as well as those planning to add advanced functionality down the road on F5's unified platform."
All F5 solutions mentioned in this announcement will be orderable in February 2013. Each of the platforms introduced today supports F5's ScaleNtechnology. Please contact a local F5 sales office for availability in specific countries.

One of the bad things – or not necessarily a good thing – about T-Mobile is their coverage. And T-Mobile knows this. If you've been a customer of T-Mobile for the last few years, then you definitely know this. Some areas you'll lose coverage altogether while others have amazing coverage. T-Mobile has been working to rectify that in recent years, and their coverage has gotten much better. However, due to their coverage, and the operator only focusing on highly-populated areas, really, MoffettNathanson Research believes that the company should be considered a "Super-Regional Operator". And it does make plenty of sense, not just from their coverage but also their retail stores.
T-Mobile's retail stores are few and far between. With the carrier operating the least amount of stores of any other national wireless carrier. And by a large margin. The number of stores that T-Mobile operates also includes MetroPCS stores. However, when it comes to customer additions, T-Mobile is ahead of the competition. In 2015 the Magenta carrier added about 3,000 new customers per store. While Verizon was at 2,600 per store and Sprint at 1,600. Meaning there is plenty of room there for growth.
The company has been focusing more on deploying their 700MHz spectrum which they bought from Verizon and a slew of other regional carriers in the country. This 700MHz spectrum or band 12 is very important for T-Mobile as it is the only spectrum they have that is low-band. This is where their coverage problems are, for the most part. Lower band spectrum is better for coverage because it can cover a wider area as well as penetrate the building walls. Important things for those that work inside all day long, as most of us do.
With the addition of coverage, MoffettNathanson believes that their retail footprint will expand as their coverage does. And with the upcoming 600MHz Incentive Auction coming soon, that will give T-Mobile another leg up over the competition. In this day and age, retail stores are being used less and less for actually making sales. As many customers are buying their smartphones online – and sometimes not even from the carrier. While it will be great to have more T-Mobile retail stores around, we may not need as many in the next few years.

Arizona is home to the jaw-dropping Grand Canyon, crazy desert wildlife, and very hot summers.
The state of Illinois is appealing for many folks looking to relocate to the midwest. Areas like Chicago offer urban amenities, and the more rural parts of Illinois showcase some of the nation's most stunning natural beauty. There are plenty of reasons that living in Illinois is the absolute best. Check out this list for some popular highlights.
The city of Chicago is an undisputed food city in Illinois and throughout the country. Travelers flock to Chicago to visit high end restaurants and well loved grease pit style restaurants alike. Chicago is lucky enough to have a large multi-ethnic population that brings all kinds of delicious cuisine to the city. Chicago is home to deep dish pizza of course, but is also home to some others that locals constantly crave. The jibarito, invented in Chicago, is a perfect example. It is a Puerto Rican inspired sandwich that substitutes bread for two thin slices of fried plantains. If you have never had a jibarito, you are severely missing out.
Chicago sports teams are loved throughout the entire state of Illinois. Although not every team on Chicago's roster is known for their wins, locals still associate their much loved team to the hometowns they remember fondly. Illinois is home to the Chicago Bears football team, the Chicago Bulls basketball team and two baseball teams, the Chicago Cubs and Chicago White Sox. Many Cubs fans blame their questionable record of wins, or lack thereof, on a rumored curse from 1945. The story states that owner of the Billy Goat Tavern, Billy Sianis, was asked to leave a playoff game due to the odor of his pet goat. This has since been referred to as the curse of the billy goat, here in Illinois.
Illinois is also home to a number of historic museums and art galleries featuring an array of styles of art. Chicago alone has a huge amount of attractions, including the Nature Museum, the Museum of Science and Industry, the Adler Planetarium, and of course the Shedd Aquarium. These locations are really just a small portion of what Illinois has to offer. The mega famous Art Institute of Chicago hosts traditional and historic art pieces, and has been featured numerous times in television and film. The most notable perhaps is its feature in the classic film, Ferris Bueller's Day Off. Chicago also has a lovely zoo that does not charge admission, the Lincoln Park Zoo. There is plenty for locals and tourists alike to check out to experience art and culture.
Although Illinois is not necessarily known for being an inexpensive state to live in, residents that enjoy living in an urban environment find Chicago to have a more reasonable cost of living and cost of rent compared to other major cities like New York City or Los Angeles. Just like in any state, there are certainly ways to find rentals in your price range, like aiming for specific neighborhoods or living slightly outside of the city to reduce the cost of living.

Walthamstow Garden Party returns for a sixth year as part of Waltham Forest London Borough of Culture 2019
Walthamstow Garden Party
Lloyd Park
Sat 13–Sun 14 Jul 2019
12–9.30pm (Sat) / 12–8pm (Sun)
On Saturday 13 and Sunday 14 July 2019, Walthamstow Garden Party returns to Lloyd Park for a sixth year running, presented by the Barbican, Create London, Waltham Forest London Borough of Culture 2019 and local residents. This is a global festival made locally, celebrating and powered by the incredible creativity of Waltham Forest, the Mayor's first ever London Borough of Culture.
Over the weekend more than 70 local groups, organisations and businesses will present music, theatre, dance, circus, spoken word, crafts and food and drink alongside an international line-up on the Barbican Music Stage including Zara McFarlane, La-33, Carleen Anderson, Tássia Reis, Mayra Andrade, Orquesta Akokán and Renegade Brass Band.
Further acts are to be announced soon.
Louise Jeffreys, Artistic Director at the Barbican, said: 'This year's Walthamstow Garden Party is a special and important one. Not only are we celebrating Waltham Forest as the first ever London Borough of Culture, but we celebrate six fabulous years working with the borough, supporting an inspiring network of local organisations and residents to work together to co-create this truly unique event. We are incredibly proud of what we have built together and can't wait to share it with you again.'
Cllr Clare Coghill, Leader of Waltham Forest Council, said: 'Walthamstow Garden Party platforms a diverse network of Waltham Forest artists, community groups, residents and businesses to deliver a weekend that truly celebrates the best that our borough has to offer. Across the weekend it is always incredible to see and experience the sense of pride and community spirit that shines through, and this year it marks an important contribution to our London Borough of Culture year.'
The Barbican Music Stage will feature musicians from across the globe.
La-33, a salsa band from Colombia, will bring their distinctive blend of salsa dura, classic cumbia, ska, Latin jazz and old school New York boogaloo to E17.
Carleen Anderson will perform alongside Nikki Yeoh, Camilla George and rising UK rapper Lady Sanity to explore how musicians and writers have used their art to highlight issues of inequality in A Change Is Gonna Come, a name inspired by the Sam Cooke classic. The group will perform tracks inspired by iconic songs from the civil rights era to the present day.
Zara McFarlane, a jazz vocalist from the UK, blends multiple influences from reggae to pop, folk and blues. Her latest single, Peace Begins Within, explores the musical possibilities of her British-Jamaican identity.
Mayra Andrade's music spans Western romanticism to Southern sensuality, and domestic reggae to African 3/4 time, sang in Cape Verdean creole, English and Portuguese.
Renegade Brass Band, from Sheffield, combine eight horns, two percussionists, a scratch DJ and live MC to form a mix of jazz, hip hop and funk.
Reflecting the festival's commitment to gender equality, Walthamstow Garden Party has signed up to PRS Foundation's Keychange, an international campaign encouraging festivals, conferences and music industry events to pledge a 50:50 gender balance by 2022.
The continued success of the weekend is underpinned by an incredible network of local organisations and residents who work together with support from Barbican, Create and London Borough of Culture 2019 teams to co-create a weekend that is truly unique to Waltham Forest.
This year, local charity Walthamstow Toy Library and Play Centre will bring together a panel of local families and children to decide which artists, makers, performers and musicians will make it through the open call process to be part of the festival's Art For All family area.
Last year's cohort of Creative Citizens, a professional development programme supporting eight local creatives, will deliberate who will be invited to perform on this year's News From Nowhere stage, showcasing dance, circus and more alongside their own work, including a new commission from local contemporary dance group MovE17; dance performances and workshops from X7eaven Academy; and circus performances on trapezes, ropes and hoops from Walthamstow Youth Circus.
Young producers aged 15–19 from the borough will work closely with local music organisation Beatroots to shape the Earthly Paradise Tent and showcase a range of local and youth talent all of their choice. In addition this stage presents local choirs, bands, poets, MCs and writers from the borough including Blackhorse Arts, Waltham Forest Music Hub, Greenleaf Primary School with Boy Blue, Natural Voices and Choir 17. Earthly Paradise is also proud to present the London based new music act Urban Flames choir, a collective of young singer songwriters who write and perform their own original music, and KOG, who brings high energy rap and unmistakeable African rhythms.
Making and creating is once again at the heart of the Useful + Beautiful area. E17 Designers return showcasing local makers, whilst Create London have teamed up with Create Jobs inviting young people from east London to work with artists and lead family-focussed activities that will take over the whole marquee and surrounding area. Festival-goers will be able to explore illustration, fashion, textiles, ceramics, jewellery, child and adult fashion and more through workshops and demos.
The Glittering Plains dance tent returns this year curated by local DJ collective Electronic 17, presenting local and east London DJ talent with a focus on techno and disco over the weekend.
This year will see Fellowship Island transformed into Grandad's Island as part of From Page to Pavement, a London Borough of Culture project being produced by local arts development organisation, Artillery. It will invite local residents to reimagine Lloyd Park in the image of Benji Davies' book of the same name, by co-creating artworks and a programme of activities in the lead up to the festival. Grandad's Island is an ambitious project about the process of creating together, sharing ideas and skills and making friends along the way.
The Waltham Forest Muslim Cultural Forum will also be curating a dedicated area with intimate performances celebrating local talent.
Plus, pop-up performances and sports activities will take place around the park throughout the weekend.
In addition to Walthamstow Garden Party's continued commitment to involving residents at all levels of decision making and creating a platform for local arts, the festival is committing to several pledges and initiatives relating to the environment and sustainability.
Festival Vision 2025 commits the festival to achieve a 50% reduction in festival-related annual GHG emissions by 2025, and A Greener Festival is a sustainability accreditation scheme which helps to monitor environmental performance.
Because we choose to work with so many local artists, producers and traders and encourage our audiences to walk, cycle or use public transport, our impact on the environment is kept to a minimum.
Last year we initiated a reusable cup scheme which saved 26,828 single use plastic cups from going into landfill and recycled 74.6% of the waste from the site. This was such a success that the scheme will be offered at the festival again this year.
We are still on a journey to being as sustainable as possible and hope audiences will help by bringing a reusable bottle, choosing to walk or cycle and recycling their waste responsibly over the weekend.

Activision's marketing strategy for Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 doesn't seem to be going according to plan. What should be a weekend of the Call of Duty community celebrating and following along with the CWL Anaheim tournament, is instead a weekend where players took to social media - and influencers to YouTube - to start a movement against the Black Ops 4's DLC plans.
And the reason? Activision and Treyarch are still requiring players to purchase a DLC season pass to access additional zombie and multiplayer maps for Black Ops 4 post-launch, and will not be selling this DLC separately. Where Ubisoft and Electronic Arts have opted to embrace post-launch content plans that keep the community rolling together, Activision is bringing back a version of its traditional season pass which effectively doubles the price of the base game if you hope to play it long-term. And the devs told me directly that their whole plan with going all-multiplayer in 2018 with the franchise was to keep the community playing the game long-term. But they are charging players for that instead of encouraging them and rewarding them for playing.
Related: Battlefield V Will NOT Have A DLC Season Pass
This all began Jun 11, 2018 - last week during E3 2018 - where Call of Duty surprisingly had barely anything to show (we still don't know what its Blackout battle royale mode looks like) at the expo. They quietly unveiled the different pre-order bundle editions for Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 and confirmed with them that they will have a DLC season pass called the "Black Ops Pass." A few things stuck out with this announcement, the biggest being that the DLC map packs included in the season pass will not be sold separately. The second, is that fact that Call of Duty is still asking players to pay for maps, effectively splintering its fan base, when EA, Activision, and even Bethesda now (with their upcoming Fallout 76) are not charging for this sort of content in an effort to keep their players playing, and keep them together.
- Battlefield V will not have a premium pass or paid expansions.
- Star Wars: Battlefront II didn't have a season pass.
- Fallout 76 DLC will be free thanks to cosmetic microtransactions.
Given that the various pre-order editions of Black Ops 4 also include "Call of Duty Points" that means the game will also feature real money microtransactions, so we're in a place where since the season pass currently cannot be purchased separately (but will be sold at a later time), anyone investing in the multiplayer-only game (reminder: Black Ops 4 does not feature a story campaign) must effectively pay a premium to experience the full game and still be subject to microtransactions.
But that's not all in the land of stupid DLC limitations. Right now, Activision is promoting the Back in Black Maps pack which features classic maps from Black Ops and Black Ops 2 which is - you guessed it - only available on PlayStation 4. Talk about splintering the community... we're multiple levels deep into this now. But it's worse than that. Players can only get this map pack in Black Ops 3 on PS4 if they pre-order Black Ops 4 only on PS4 and only digitally.
But back to the bigger problem of the steep and out-of-date paywall structure. This is a strange and seemingly backwards plan in the current climate of the industry, especially in an era when Call of Duty is increasingly overshadowed by other action games and shooters on the market. And especially when their chief competitor this fall in Battlefield V seems to be offering so much more, without the premiums. And a vocal group of the player base seems to think so too, creating the #SayNOtoBlackOpsPass hashtag which has taken over social media, Reddit, and YouTube. If you look at some of the latest official announcements from the Call of Duty and PlayStation channels on Twitter, the comments are flooded with this movement.
The hashtag and controversy even topped the gaming subreddit over the weekend. The other story, about the Back in Black maps exclusivity, topped the Xbox One subreddit.
Season passes are a thing of the past, much like online passes Electronic Arts tried to roll out last generation. EA is working to make amends for record-breaking bad publicity thanks to their microtransactions and loot boxes, and a back-to-back win of Consumerist's "Worst Company in America" a few years prior, and Activision is making that easy for them.
And as a reminder, this means Call of Duty's first ever battle royale game will be behind a massive paywall too while PUBG is $30 and when Fortnite - the current king of the genre - is free. Even Battlefield V's battle royale mode will be added free (alongside ALL of its maps and modes) as part of their free "Tides of War" live service. We learned from Drift0r's video above (one of many COD influencers making videos about the controversy) that Activision is promising more free content in Black Ops 4 than any previous game, but it's still less than everyone else.
Don't be surprised to see a change in DLC plans for Black Ops 4 from Activision since this is now the question they must address every time to speak to media. Otherwise, the bad buzz will continue and will turn players away from Black Ops 4 when they need positive buzz and player retention.

A challenging start, uphill hole with OOB on the left with a sloping fairway from left to right. Best to hit an iron to the bottom of the hill. Approach shot club selection is critical. Aim for the back of the green, the ball will roll back down onto the green.

Here's where flooding breached levees in southwest Iowa
Video courtesy of the Mills County Emergency Management Agency show the extent of levee damaged caused by flooding on the Missouri River. Mills County Emergency Management, Special to the Register
Floodwaters have inundated several towns in southwest Iowa, cutting off water supplies and forcing residents to evacuate away from the Missouri River.
Residents in Pacific Junction and Hamburg were forced to leave their homes after waters breached the nearby levees over the weekend.
According to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, four of its levees along the Iowa side of the river breached as of Tuesday morning. Seventeen levees in total were comprised — either breached or overtopped — in Nebraska, Iowa and Missouri.

Drinks Anyone?
According to Per La Mente, Michael Cirino's company A Razor/A Shiny Knifehas been in the business of producing unusual food and drink-related events for a while now, which the website calls "high-impact experiences." His latest endeavour, however, is one that seems simultaneously ludicrous and yet oddly inspired. Basically, Cirino is using a drone to make cocktails. Confused? Let's make it even clearer with Per La Mente's promo video.
Cirino says that "Drones have been exciting for a while, but not many people get to touch them. This project was something that started out as a novel joke a couple years ago: How do we take drones and incorporate them into an event, and experience, or everyday life in a different way than just delivering packages or making a video?"
It's a fair point, especially for someone whose business it is to think of these things. The drone news we cover regularly can be fairly divided into a few, major sections, most commonly search and rescue, agriculture or inspection, and to create fun or cinematic footage. Cirino seems to be aware that there's a void in there, that there must be something more visceral or creative that drones can afford us. For good or ill, his answer is using drones to make cocktails.
What do you think? Is this just another gimmick, exploiting the recreational drone industry to further Cirino's business? Or is this the kind of viral drone-related stunt that could get newcomers more accustomed to drones in everyday life? Personally, I think it's a bit of both, but regardless, it's definitely something different.

PROVIDENCE, R.I. – Southern Vermont College was downed 14-2 Sunday night by Rhode Island College in a non-conference women's lacrosse contest at Alumni Field.
RIC scored the first five goals of the game before bringing a 6-1 lead into the break. The Anchorwomen then outscored SVC by seven in the final 30 minutes to walk out with the win.
The Mountaineers (0-5) are next scheduled to host SUNY Maritime on Saturday for a 1 p.m. home opener at Everett Field.
SVC sophomore Alex Safford (Burnt Hills, N.Y.) had a goal in addition to team-highs of five ground balls and three caused turnovers. Freshman Marisa Moy (Framingham, Mass.) had the other Mountaineer goal while notching three ground balls and a pair of caused turnovers, and senior Madi Carr (Petersham, Mass.) posted three ground balls and three caused turnovers in the effort.
Southern Vermont senior goalie Sydnee Julian (Mexico, N.Y.) made 11 saves in the loss (0-5), and she also collected five ground balls on the night.
RIC had a 4-0 lead by the 21:02 mark of the first half, and the Anchorwomen maintained that upper hand through the next 10 minutes. SVC got on the board when Moy buried her second goal of the year with 5:47 to go, but Rhode Island answered with 12 seconds left to bring a 6-1 advantage into halftime.
After the hosts got the first goal of the second period, Safford took a pass from senior Aubrey Vierstra (Saugerties, N.Y.) and beat the RIC keeper for her fifth score of the season. The rest would be all Rhode Island, however, as the Anchorwomen closed out the contest with seven unanswered goals for the comfortable victory.
