Stop. The. World. I just got a shower. And washed my hair and shaved my legs for the first time in I can't tell you how long. New moms- you know what I am talking about. I thought that this time would be different. I thought that since this is the third time around I would have figured this all out by now. But nope- somehow the time to take a full on shower eludes me. Sometimes it is noon and I realize that I haven't brushed my teeth. I think that I have only fixed my hair a handful of times and I know I have only put on makeup once in the last 3 weeks. Night comes and I have good intentions of taking some clippers to my toenails or the tweezers to my eyebrows, but my bed just looks so inviting I don't do any of it. I have only cooked 2 meals since I got home from Africa- which means that now my fat jeans will only button when I have my spanx on. And I haven't been to the grocery in 3 weeks so the contents of my fridge are wilted celery, expired eggs and ketchup.
I still haven't unpacked my last suitcase from my trip. I think I am afraid that there may be cockroaches stowed away in there that decided to come to America. Somehow in my head, I think if I just leave the bag closed, whatever may or may not be in there can't escape. It's not that I am lazy. I am not depressed. I am hyper vigilant about watching for warning signs of post-adoption depression. That is not it. I am happy as a clam. This is just a classic case of wore-the-hell-out! So new moms- fear not! You are not alone. If we could stand the smell of each other we should band together and form a club. A club called the " I know I have a new baby and you want to come to my house- but my hair is too greasy and my sink is full of dirty dishes, but come on in, club!"

This was my first and last project at Expedia and I am so glad it finally launched. This is the first time that a company of this size tries to do responsive design.
I was lucky to join at the right moment when the design team was still in the early stage of exploring homepage redesign. I joined as a principle lead managing the team responsible for the homepage and landing pages in August 2012. At that time the design team were A/B testing a few different homepage concepts. One of the main challenges we faced was convincing the leadership that we had to change the homepage. Since it had not been significantly changed for years and people don't like big changes, every time we tried something drastic, it affected the bottom line. It took awhile, but my team came up with a concept that got the company excited.
After a long process of negotiation, we decided that we would go ahead and completely redesign the homepage and launch it in beta mode. We wanted to let people opt-in instead of force them into the new design. That way we could get enough traffic to test what's working without affecting the bottom line too much. We got buyoff from the leadership team and we started the planning process.
Note: To opt-in, go to expedia.com and click on the Show Me button below the header. Make sure you leave some feedback.

A multiplatform synchronous C API in which operations are accomplished in a few simple function calls is provided for the 5800 system. The API calls include operations for storing, retrieving, deleting, and querying of data and metadata records. Multiple threads are supported, and operations block until they complete.
You must call hc_init (once per process) and hc_session_create_ez (once per thread) prior to making any other API calls.
All functions in the 5800 system C API return an hc_err. Any value other than HCERR_OK indicates failure.
This section discusses the following topics for the 5800 system synchronous C API.
This release of the synchronous C API contains the following changes:
Handling is added for storing, retrieving and querying the following new metadata types:
char — for Latin 1 character set
Query and queryplus are merged
Prepared statements (pstmts) are introduced to handle values of queries that cannot be placed inline, and a new query is introduced to handle them.
The following new functions have been added to the API:
The following functions have changed in the API:
The following functions and types have been removed from the API:
This release of the synchronous C API is subject to the following limitations:
Changes to the metadata schema at the server are only detected at the client at the next call to hc_session_create_ez.
The values returned by hc_session_get_platform_result will not be updated properly after calls to the functions hc_retrieve_ez and hc_delete_ez.
When using the C API, the maximum metadata size of a data item stored using either hc_store_both_ez or hc_store_metadata_ez is limited to approximately 76300 bytes. The exact maximum metadata size depends on many factors and should not be relied on. This limitation does not apply to metadata stored using the Java API.

Liveblogging World War I: October 10, 1916: Eighth Battle of the Isonzo
History.com: Eighth Battle of the Isonzo:
On this day in 1916, Italian forces during World War I initiate the Eighth Battle of the Isonzo, essentially continuing a previous assault on Austrian positions near the Isonzo River and attempting to increase gains made during previous battles in the same region.
The mountainous terrain around the Isonzo, at the border between Italy and Austria-Hungary, despite being ill-suited to offensive operations, saw no fewer than 12 battles over the course of World War I, beginning in the late spring of 1915 after the entry of Italy into the war on the side of the Allied powers. After the Italians established positions at Gorizia, including a long-desired bridgehead across the river in a successful offensive in the Sixth Battle of Isonzo in August 1916, Luigi Cadorna, chief of staff of the Italian army, was determined to extend his gains. In mid-September, the Italians launched the seventh of the Isonzo battles; they were quickly pushed back by Austro-Hungarian forces and suffered heavy casualties.
The Eighth Battle of the Isonzo, fought from October 10-12, 1916, was a continuation of these Italian attempts to extend their positions at Gorizia. As in the previous month, the short, concentrated burst of fighting resulted in heavy Italian casualties, prompting Cadorna to call the offensive off pending his army's recuperation. Although the Italians made a fifth and final attack of the year, the Ninth Battle of the Isonzo, on November 1, stalemate in the region continued until the following October, when Austria-Hungary called on its ally, Germany, for reinforcements in the region. The resulting offensive, the Twelfth Battle of the Isonzo, or the Battle of Caporetto, was a decisive victory for the Central Powers, and a crushing blow for the Italian forces—one that resulted in Cadorna's dismissal and a comprehensive change in strategy. By war's end, Italy had suffered some 600,000 casualties—fully half of those came in the Isonzo region.

Getting the rabbit in the hat

Tulane University researchers investigate how tiny units of genetic material fold into long fibersand impact some of our bodies' most fundamental processes.
by J. William Bell
The human genome's three billion base pairs, if stretched into a straight chain, would be about one meter long. Yet, by folding itself up, it fits in only a fraction of the volume of a cell's nucleus. Some very clever origami is required to keep the genome functional in this state instead of just becoming a tangled mess.
But that folding operationin which short segments of DNA are folded into nucleosomes forming a fiber-like structure called chromatinis more than just a means of sneaking a rabbit into a very, very small hat. All genomic processes are somehow impacted by which segments of DNA are wrapped into nucleosomes, the order in which nucleosomes line up, and which face of the nucleosomes' DNA is directed in and which is directed out.
A team led by Tulane University's Tom Bishop is beginning to use NCSA's Abe supercomputer, as well as supercomputers throughout the TeraGrid, to investigate some of the most basic features of how nucleosomes behave.
Most people are familiar with the double helix structure of DNA. They're also familiar with the structure at the other end of the spectrum, when DNA is tightly packaged into chromosomes for segregation to the daughter cells during division. This structure can be seen with a simple microscope. "Somewhere between these two extremes is how DNA exists during most of the cell cycle, thus our interests in nucleosomes and chromatin," according to Bishop, a research associate professor at Tulane's Center for Computational Science.
"At this level of folding is where the cellular machinery spends most of its time doing its work based on the DNA blueprints." He says to think of this work as the "the three Rs and a T of molecular biology"replication, regulation, repair, and transcription. "Understand these mechanisms and you've covered the fundamentals of molecular biology. There's still much to learn about these mechanisms, but nucleosome stability is likely relevant to all. Our current interest is how stability relates to promoting or restricting the expression of proteins."
With energy
When DNA folds into fibers of chromatin, the underlying nucleosome structures are all remarkably similar. One hundred and forty-seven base pairs form a spiral staircase around eight proteins called histones. Genetics requires that the sequence vary. Packing requires that the histones be somewhat impartial to the sequence being packed Nonetheless, sequence differences impact nucleosome behavior.
"They may look identical, but different amounts of energy are required to make each nucleosome," says Bishop.
This variation in energy determines, in part, the placement of nucleosomes in chromatin fibers and how likely the nucleosomes are to move about in the fiber. It also determines how much energy is required for a cell's machinery to gain access to DNA inside a given nucleosome.
Nucleosomes with low energy thresholds can more easily be displaced, yielding direct, open access to the DNA blueprints. Nucleosomes with a high energy threshold allow more limited access. Stable nucleosomes perform other tasks. For example, they can help organize the local structure of chromatin and are often associated with promoter complexes that direct the cell machinery toward transcription start sites for particular genes.
Bishop's team is currently investigating the energy profile of thousands of nucleosomes in the yeast genome using both all-atom and coarse-grain computational models. They're determining how variations in the DNA sequence inside a nucleosome influence its energy profile and thus its position and stability in the chromatin fiber.
"A lot of effort has been devoted to protein folding, an amino acid origami problem," Bishop explains. "We're trying to understand chromatin folding, a nucleic acid origami problem."
This project is funded by the National Institutes of Health and the National Science Foundation. This effort also greatly benefits from the work of Tevfik Kosar, the Petashare Resource, and Shantenu Sha, all at Louisiana State University. The efforts of the NAMD developers are critical as well. Louisiana Optical Network Initiative (LONI) resources were used to demonstrate proof of concept.

As domestic box office suffered from the usual post-Easter slump, a pair of international flagships — "Titanic" 3D and "Battleship" — helped raise the global tide.
"Titanic," which is being released overseas by Fox Intl., grossed an astounding $88.2 million in its second frame, of which $58 million came from six days in China, making it Fox's best-ever Chinese bow.
The 3D re-tread reached $190.8 million worldwide, pushing the film's lifetime the atrical cume past the $2 billion mark worldwide. Universal's "Battleship," meanwhile, collected an estimated $58 million from 26 overseas markets. Pic launched more than a month ahead of its Stateside bow on May 18.
While the ships sailed on overseas, it was the domestic biz's lowest-grossing weekend of the year with an estimated $110 million, with total box office down approximately 12% from last year.
Still, Lionsgate's "The Hunger Games" displayed marathon-like stamina, dropping just 35% from its previous frame, with an estimated $21.5 million through Sunday. "Hunger Games" scored its fourth straight domestic triumph and has cumed $337.1 million. Pic's worldwide tally reached $530 million.
Popular on Variety
Fox's re-imagining of "The Three Stooges" performed at the high end of tracking projections with an estimated No. 2 take of $17.1 million, followed by Lionsgate's horror pic "The Cabin in the Woods," which scored $14.9 million. Neither debut pic represented a major financial investment.
The same goes for the weekend's third new entry, FilmDistrict's "Lockout," which cost a reported $20 million from EuropaCorp. "Lockout," via a service deal with Open Road Films, earned a tepid $6.3 million in three days.
Domestic B.O. typically slows down the weekend after Easter as kids go back to school. The international biz, meanwhile, benefited from Hollywood tentpoles launching overseas before the U.S.
In 2010, Paramount's "Iron Man 2" essentially kickstarted the summer sesh first internationally. For "Battleship," U aimed to avoid this year's crowded summer pipeline made even more congested overseas by the Olympics and the European soccer championship. A few other pics, like Disney-Marvel's "The Avengers," also will go somewhat early overseas.
Despite this weekend's Stateside slump, year-to-date domestic B.O. continues to far outpace last year's running total. "The biz is definitely in good shape headed into summer," noted one studio distribution exec.
'Titanic' booty o'seas
James Cameron's "Titanic" 3D hasn't become a Stateside phenomenon, but the retro-fit certainly made waves overseas, illustrating the ravenous appetite for certain conversions among international auds.
Undoubtedly, China represents the film's all-star territory, where the 3D version already outgrossed the original's entire theatrical Chinese take by 32%.
The success of "Titanic" 3D in China points to an opportunity for other retrofits that could capitalize on a more developed Chinese exhibition market since their initial release.
"Battleship," which launches next week in China, debuted at No. 1 in 20 of its total 26-country spread, including South Korea ($8 million), the U.K. ($6.1 million) and Germany ($5 million). The pic also earned top marks in Japan, where it grossed $4.9 million — better than "Iron Man" and "John Carter" locally.
U will expand "Battleship" into an additional 36 territories throughout this month and next.
Stateside 'Stooge'-ing
The weekend's newest Stateside players each skewed mostly male, leaving holdovers like "Hunger Games" and "Titanic" to dominate among femmes. "Three Stooges," which drew 58% males, played slightly better with under-25 auds and families, while "Cabin in the Woods" scored best with adults. "Lockout" saw a more even split between over- and under-25 filmgoers.
Lionsgate distribution head Richie Fay said that the over-25 turnout for "Cabin" suggests the film could hold better than most horror pics, since "older audi ences tend to be less impulsive."
What's more, "Cabin" has been getting unusually glowing reviews, with an added promising Friday-to-Saturday bump — even if it was only by 3%, as most horror pics fall from opening day. "Cabin" received a less-enthusiastic C CinemaScore rating, though scarers score lower ratings in general.
Lionsgate acquired worldwide rights to "Cabin" last May from MGM for a minimum guarantee in the high teens. Pic had been on the shelf for three years during MGM's flux. Lionsgate reportedly spent in the mid-$20 millions to market the film.
"Three Stooges," which cost $35 million to produce, received an overall B- rating, but the film played better (A-) with its core under-25 demo.
Chris Aronson, exec VP of distribution and general sales manager at Fox, pointed to the film's under-25 turnout as a promising start, especially given the property's mid-20th century origins. "It seems that our intrepid 'Stooges' have poked their way into a new generation of fans," Aronson quipped.
TWC's 'Bully' broadens
In its first frame with the newly revised PG-13 rating, the Weinstein Co.'s "Bully" expanded to 158 locations (up 152 from last weekend), grossing an estimated $534,000 for a Stateside cume of $813,202.
Here's how "Bully" stacks up against comparable docus during their first outing at north of 150 playdates: Last year, "Buck" earned $386,172 from 152 locations in its fourth frame. 2010's "Waiting for Superman" tallied $742,725 — also during its fourth outing — from 182 Stateside playdates. "Buck" cumed $4 million domestically; "Superman," $6.4 million.
Scoring the weekend's best per-screen average, Codeblack Entertainment's urban drama "Woman Thou Art Loosed: On the 7th Day," through a distribution partnership with AMC-Independent, averaged a projected $6,376 from 102 playdates. Pic tallied a total estimated $650,319.

Its been a busy week this week. From troubleshooting several production issues to writing some incremental load SSIS scripts, the week has flown by. I Still haven't managed to get my replication post out the door, and after re-reading and re-working again I think it will be a few weeks yet before it makes it on to the blog. If it doesn't get dramatically better soon I may just 'can' it altogether.
I intend to write some posts on the incremental data loads I have been working on this week, they will be written and published in the coming weeks, I have a few other ideas for technical posts and they will be written in the near future.
On the home front, Mrs Ellis and I were hoping to make it to an outdoor theatre production this week bit the weather has been terrible with heavy rain so we haven't made it. The puppies on the other hand love the rain they love swimming in the lake that is close by, they love rolling in the mud and getting dirty. Trouble is they now stink so I think it may be bath time they weekend. They hate baths though, if it smells, is muddy or dirty in any way then they love it, if it cleans them up and makes them look nice then they hate it.
Not a very technical post but it is Friday, I will have been in work for several hours when this post is published and any minute now I'll betting myself a bacon roll….emm bacon!

COLUMBUS – The Colorado Rapids made judicious use of their forward forays, scoring on their first two shots even though they were 61 minutes apart, as the visiting Rapids downed the Columbus Crew 2-0 on Saturday.
Former Crew star Edson Buddle put the Rapids ahead in the 8th minute and rookie Dillon Powers netted the important insurance tally in the 69th minute with a strike from distance that deflected off Crew defender Josh Williams.
Colorado (4-4-3, 15 points) won its second straight and is 4-1-2 in the past seven matches. The Rapids also ended a 0-5-2 regular-season streak in Columbus dating back to 2005.
OPTA Chalkboard: Rapids produce a classic road performance to steal all three points
The Crew (3-4-3, 12 points) lost their second straight at home, are now 1-2-2 at Columbus Crew Stadium this season and have been blanked in three of the past four games.
Columbus had the better of the play, but found themselves behind early as Buddle was in the perfect spot in the middle of the penalty box to take a layoff by Atiba Harris, bring the ball down, then beat goalkeeper Andy Gruenebaum from close range. Danny Mwanga got the second assist by feeding Harris from the left flank.
Buddle scored for the second straight game and for the 95th time in his career. He racked up 42 goals in 106 games for Columbus from 2001-05.
It was hardly the start the Crew expected, especially after they nearly got on the board in the first 25 seconds of the match. Jairo Arrieta outraced Clint Irwin for a 50-50 ball at the left edge of the penalty area and chipped the ball over the goalkeeper, only to see the attempt bounce left of the frame.
While the Crew often got into dangerous spots in the first half, they couldn't break down a tight Rapids defense that forced hurried passes and attempts. Arrieta had a good look off a spin move in the 26th minute but he sent a low strike skimming through the goal box and past the right post for the Crew's second-best chance before halftime.
Powers put the game out of reach off a free kick from the right corner after a hard foul by Matias Sanchez on Martin Rivero. The restart pinged to the top of the box, where Powers struck the ball low and hard but was helped by a dramatic ricochet off Williams that left Gruenebaum wrongfooted.
Irwin secured his fourth shutout with a save on a Glauber header in the 80th minute.
Colorado next plays at San Jose on May 18, while the Crew visit Toronto FC on the same day.
Scoring Summary:
COL – Edson Buddle 2 (Atiba Harris 1, Danny Mwanga 1) 8'
COL - Dillon Powers 2 (Deshorn Brown 2) 69'

MS study correlates fMR with negative effect of warmer weather on cognitive status
Kessler Foundation scientists correlated functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) findings with the negative impact of outdoor temperature on cognitive functioning in multiple sclerosis (MS). This study, "Warmer outdoor temperature is associated with task-related increased BOLD activation in patients with multiple sclerosis," released by Brain Imaging & Behavior as epub ahead of print, corroborates the group's previous study that established that people with MS performed worse on processing speed and memory tasks during warmer outdoor temperatures versus during cooler outdoor temperatures. "Increased MS disease activity during warmer months is a recent discovery. Now, this work is the first report of brain activation associated with outdoor temperature in MS. This finding is novel and important for persons with MS who are shown to have worse cognition during warmer weather," said Victoria M. Leavitt, Ph.D., research scientist at Kessler Foundation and principal investigator for the study, funded by the National MS Society.
Kessler Foundation researchers previously demonstrated that patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) demonstrate worse cognition on warmer days. (Leavitt VM, Sumowski JF, Chiaravalloti N, DeLuca J. Warmer outdoor temperature is associated with worse cognitive status in multiple sclerosis. Neurology. 2012 Mar 27;78(13):964-8). The purpose of the current study was to identify the neurophysiological basis for worse cognition. "Here, we examined the neurophysiology underlying this temperature-cognition relationship, said Dr. Leavitt. "The association between task-related BOLD fMRI activation and outdoor temperature was investigated in 28 MS patients who demonstrated worse cognitive function on warmer days. In MS patients, warmer outdoor temperature was associated with greater BOLD activation during performance of a simple sustained attention task. The brain areas that showed greater activation on warmer days were regions typically activated by MS patients during task performance: the frontal, dorsolateral, prefrontal and parietal cortex. The relationship between outdoor temperature and cerebral activation was absent in healthy controls. Increased brain activation required by MS patients on warmer days to perform a simple task may signify neural inefficiency."
Kessler Foundation co-investigators are Glenn Wylie, D.Phil., associate director of Neuroscience Research and the Center for Neuroimaging Research @ Kessler Foundation, Nancy Chiaravalloti, Ph.D., Director of Neuropsychology & Neuroscience Research, John DeLuca, Ph.D., Vice President for Research & Training, and James F. Sumowski, Ph.D., research scientist. All also have faculty appointments at Rutgers New Jersey Medical School.
According to Dr. Sumowski, "The significant effect of warmer weather on cognition should be considered when designing and conducting clinical trials. This information might assist clinicians in choosing clinical treatment, and help researchers develop effective strategies for coping with the negative effects of weather-related effects on cognition that impact independence, education, employment and activities of daily living."

A few of my beer drinking buddies have shed a few tears because we can't get Brew Dog's Punk IPA here in Ontario anymore. It showed up briefly at local LCBO's and then vanished just as quickly, never to be seen again.
I remember trying it, and at the time, I thought it fairly easy drinking, but really neither here nor there. I must be clear though, that is in no way a comment on Brew Dog's brewing, it's because I'm not the biggest fan of Nelsen Sauvin hops, which they use a lot of. I know, some of you out there are cursing me as I say that, but it's just my personal taste, nothing more.
I must repeat, my personal taste is in no way a reflection of my opinion of Brew Dog itself. Brew Dogs' story is extremely inspiring. The way they were able to grow as a result of thinking outside the box in both marketing approach, and financing, have most start-ups drooling. Not to mention their videos are a blast to watch! Check out their take on Punk IPA:
They seem like a bunch of very fun dudes. I seriously wish them nothing but a continuation of their already very successful trajectory.
So, back to our dilemma, since we have no Punk IPA in these parts, what to do? David Thompson, who was over a ways back to collaborate on a brew to clone Samuel Smith's Oatmeal Stout, brought with him a clone he made of Punk IPA. If I remember correctly, it tasted pretty spot on to what I remember the original tasting like. The signature obviously being the hop profile. I asked him to send me the recipe he had for future reference, which he kindly did. I've had it tucked it away all this time, and thought now would be a good time to give it a go as I hate to see tears on my friends faces when hey can't get a beer they want. (haha, just teasing you Brewtal Honesty!)
Looking to Brew Dog's site for some verification, I tweaked the recipe slightly to match the information I was able to glean from it:
- IBU's: 45
- 100% Marris Otter Extra Pale Malt
- Chinook, Simcoe, Ahtanum, Nelson Sauvin
David's recipe had no 60 min addition in it, which I found interesting, so I opted to toss a tiny bit of Chinook in at 60mins just for fun. Maybe omitting the 60 min addition is part of the magic? I guess we'll have to wait and see…
One other thing I don't know is what kind of yeast they use. I usually start off with my old standby of US-05 first to see if everything else is in line, and then play with the yeast after I've established the general idea.
A NOTE ON THE RECIPE: Having the last hop addition calculated at 1 minute puts the IBU's high at 57, but having them at flameout drops them to 36, even though you'd still get some IBU's while whirlpooling/standing to chill. I'm going by what David did originally, which was delicious, but to match the original, I may need to tweak this. Either way, the combo is going to provide that special Punk IPA profile.

Last year I enjoyed the bourbon seminars as much as tasting the diferent bourbons.The guy I went with drank mostly scotch, but I think I'm bringing him back from "the dark side". About a year and a half ago he wanted to try bourbon, I suggested Knob Creek. After taking a sip, he dumped the rest down the drain. Since then he's tried, purchased and enjoyed several bourbons (Woodford, Kentucky Spirit, VW15 and Blanton's). Yesterday at work, he told me he tried Knob Creek again and liked it.

The TLC2558 and TLC2554 are a family of high-performance, 12-bit low power, 1.6 us, CMOS analog-to-digital converters (ADC) which operate from a single 5 V power supply. These devices have three digital inputs and a 3-state output [chip select (CS\), serial input-output clock (SCLK), serial data input (SDI), and serial data output (SDO)] that provide a direct 4-wire interface to the serial port of most popular host microprocessors (SPI interface). When interfaced with a DSP, a frame sync (FS) signal is used to indicate the start of a serial data frame.
In addition to a high-speed A/D converter and versatile control capability, these devices have an on-chip analog multiplexer that can select any analog inputs or one of three internal self-test voltages. The sample-and-hold function is automatically started after the fourth SCLK edge (normal sampling) or can be controlled by a special pin, CSTART\, to extend the sampling period (extended sampling). The normal sampling period can also be programmed as short (12 SCLKs) or as long (24 SCLKs) to accommodate faster SCLK operation popular among high-performance signal processors. The TLC2558 and TLC2554 are designed to operate with very low power consumption. The power-saving feature is further enhanced with software/hardware/auto power down modes and programmable conversion speeds. The converter uses the external SCLK as the source of the conversion clock to achieve higher (up to 1.6 us when a 20 MHz SCLK is used) conversion speed. There is a 4-V internal reference available. An optional external reference can also be used to achieve maximum flexibility.

Changes to Microsoft SBS and GoDaddy integration
Through a partnership with Microsoft, GoDaddy offered customers running Small Business Servers (SBS) two tools to simplify administrating their servers:
- Domain/IP address maintenance
- SSL expiration notice
However, on May 18, 2015, we're changing how those services work and require your action to make sure there is no interruption to your business.
Domain/IP address maintenance
SBS customers can purchase domains from GoDaddy directly though their SBS interface. If you purchased a domain through this method, GoDaddy maintained the connection between your domain name and your SBS server by updating your domain name whenever your server's IP address changed.
However, to improve your server's security, as of May 18, 2015 we are disabling this service. This means if your server's IP address changes, your domain name will no longer automatically receive these updates, which might cause your domain name and its SBS services to stop working.
To resolve this issue, you'll need to make one of the following changes:
Install our new service
We've created a new service that will automatically update your domain name whenever your IP address changes. (This essentially replicate's the existing functionality.) For more information, see Install the updated SBS GoDaddy DNS service.
Get a dedicated/fixed IP address
To prevent your server's IP address from changing, you can contact your internet service provider (ISP) and get a fixed or dedicated IP address which won't change. This usually costs a few dollars per month.
If you decide to solve the problem this way, you'll need to update your domain name's IP address. You can find information about doing this in Manage DNS zone files. You'll need to edit your domain name's A Record with the host value of @. Change its Points to value to your new IP address.
Move to a new platform
You can also consider moving to a newer website hosting and email server.
SSL expiration notice
This service verified that your SBS server's SSL certificate hadn't expired.
We're disabling this service without a replacement, so you will now have to manage your SSL certificates yourself.
However, GoDaddy will continue to email you about any SSL certificate's expiration.

Blockchain has the potential to improve processes across an investment bank's operating model and drive significant cost take out. In order to make the best of this technology, banks need to examine their existing operational systems and determine where blockchain could add the most value in the long run.
More players across the capital markets industry have started using distributed ledger technology in 2016. NASDAQ launched Linq1, a blockchain solution for the issuance, tracking and trading of private equity assets. The Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) is considering blockchain technology to replace its current clearing and settlement system.2 The Depository Trust and Clearing Corporation (DTCC), after successfully testing blockchain technology on trading swaps with four banks earlier in 2016, is currently focused on other asset classes.3
As the pace of adoption picks up, investment banking leaders need to consider the impact of blockchain on business processes, and weigh regulatory obligations.
At the heart of the long term opportunity is the ability for banks to repoint key operational, risk, and finance systems to distributed ledger technology based shared data platforms and decommission large portions of their process and data infrastructure. It will take time and multiple iterations of the platforms to get to that end-state. The potential for material cost and efficiency gains are what is driving the industry's focus and investment.
A recent study by Accenture and McLagan, a business unit of Aon plc, estimates that the average operational cost saving potential of full-scale blockchain adoption across eight of the largest global investment banks could be in the range of 30 percent or more per institution.
There are also potential savings resulting from lower transaction fees paid to exchanges and clearing houses, not to mention lower capital requirements. Through shortened settlement times, optimized security delivery and payments, blockchain could help unlock previously "trapped" capital.
In addition to potential cost reduction, blockchain technology could also create a framework for new products and services, and help improve processes across the operating model of investment banks.
Industry leaders need to develop a clear plan of action for the transition period during which legacy infrastructure and distributed-ledger models could coexist. Blockchain will have an impact on human capital as well, requiring a workforce with new expertise and skills. Middle- and back-office functions could change profoundly, while computing power needs increase.
Central banks4 and regulators5 have expressed optimism about blockchain-enabled distributed ledger technology. From a banks' perspective, blockchain's use of analytics and visualization tools could make regulatory reporting more efficient and reliable. For regulators, blockchain could provide direct access to data for regular monitoring.
However, there remains an uncertainty on new standards, rules, and governance for the use of blockchain in the industry. Given the lack of best-practice guidance from regulators, banks should ensure that the blockchain-enabled solutions comply with all current regulatory mandates, even if certain rules seem unnecessary or redundant.
Consider replacing existing infrastructure.
Have a clear vision in place for how blockchain and distributed ledger technologies can improve processes, over both short- and long-term.
Create a working group to study the new technologies, understand their possibilities and the benefits of implementation.
Identify the highest priority processes to explore feasibility and readiness.
Implement processes for developing and testing prototypes.
Be aware of the regulatory and legislative environment.
While blockchain holds great promise for cost reduction and creation of new products and services, this new technology is not a panacea. It could improve some processes, but not all.
Investment banks planning to leverage blockchain need to identify which processes could benefit the most from adoption, and have a bold vision and practical plan in place for technology needs, human capital changes and regulatory demands.

Elgato DTT Deluxe
World's smallest USB TV tuner
The Deluxe's antenna slots into a wee MCX (Mini Coax) port at the opposite end to the USB connector. Elgato bundles a standard mini antenna with a magnetic base and separate suction cup. It pivots at the base to allow you to maximise reception, as does the separate, telescopic aerial it provides. The latter is handy if you don't want wires spoiling the lines of your laptop and is more travel friendly too. Finally, if you need a feed from a full-size antenna, there's a mcx-to-coax adaptor in the box as well.
Elgato bundles two types of mini antenna, including a telescopic one
You'll certainly want to use the adaptor if you plan to plug the Deluxe into a desktop machine or media centre near to your TV. We found the reception surprisingly good with a mini antenna - certainly better than it has been with TV tuners we've tried in the past in the same London locations and with the same antenna types.
That said, it's by no means a match for a proper feed - thanks to Freeview's broadcast strength rather than any failing on the tuner's part. Our initial, extensive tune-up in Register Hardware's sixth-floor, central London HQ still missed a number of channels and couldn't get sufficient signal for some of the others.
EyeTV 3 playback...
Adjusting the mini antenna helps - you'll appreciate the pivot when you're moving at around in search of a signal - but unless you're in a very good locale, you'll need a proper aerial feed if you want the full selection of channels.
...and from Terratec Home Cinema
On a Mac, the Deluxe works with Elgato's EyeTV 3 software, which provides full DVR functionality, augmenting the over-the-air programme guide data with a year's free access to the TVTV online EPG. You can create lists of favourite channels; record, pause and rewind live broacasts; schedule recordings, top and tail them then convert them into formats suitable for playback on iPods, iPhones and Apple TVs.

I know he's precise and analytical. After all, he's an actuary, but I never considered he would take these skills into the mundane field of bathroom products. For the last three weeks Milton, my husband, has not moved beyond our porch. His balance is poor. Since he hasn't done any shopping, it came to me to fulfill his short list of health-care needs.
First on the list was aspirin. Apparently the last time I was asked to buy aspirin, I came home with baby aspirin. No! No! I must look for 325 mg. When I found the shelf of 325 mg. I had many choices with product names I recognize. Would it be OK to select the Acme house brand, Equaline? It costs less. Go for economy, says I. I used the same criterion for dental floss where there was a $2 difference between the same length of floss, one waxed and one flavored. Big deal!
It was the mouthwash that really tripped me up. Milton's order was for 22.5% alcohol. Was he drinking it or swishing it in his mouth? I walked through shelves of mouthwash, and the highest alcohol content I could find was 21.6%. I, who occasionally bought the product and rarely used it, made my choice based on flavor, price and size. Actually, size is the important consideration. Will the bottle fit within the constraints of the shelf height? I searched Target and Rite Aid and gave up. As it turned out, Milton misremembered the alcohol number. It's 21.6%. Go figure.
Then there was an order for liquid soap. I buy liquid dishwasher detergent for the kitchen but have never bought the kind for hands and face. I'm still using the cake soap inherited from my mother, who bought it by the case from Macy's.
In this product, the choices are mind-boggling. First off, does Milton want his soap clear or opaque? Would it be acceptable if it contained honey, lemon, lime, or does it have to be fragrance-free? Would it be bad if it specified hand use or that it foamed? There were too many options for me to choose.
When I came home empty-handed, Milton said any one would do. That being the case, I gave him a cinnamon-scented opaque liquid soap that someone had given me and which I hadn't gotten around to using.
Buying eye drops was easy. (Finally!) I was given a discount coupon picturing five varieties. The one Milton wanted was circled. No thought necessary.
Distilled water was another problem on the shopping list. I don't even know what that is. I get my whiskey from a distillery, but I didn't know there was a water distillery. Target was out of the product. Rite Aid had it for $1.35, which turns out to be about 25 percent higher than Milton's store of choice, Giant. I bought two gallons. One is still in the trunk of my car.
Come to think of it, if it freezes, it can make trouble. Last winter I left a case of Coke in the trunk only to find that the cans had popped their closings and the liquid disappeared, amazingly without leaving any residue. What does that say for the ingredients in Coke? The contents are ephemeral; only the price is real.
This week expects to see very mild weather. Milton should be able to leave the house, go to the store himself and shop for his preferred products, please God.

Ugly tomatoes taste better
Wet cardboard and a tomato should not taste the same, but few of us have been fortunate enough to experience the difference. A tomato, in addition to water and cellulose, has sugars, acids, and aromas that distinguish it from wet cardboard. I blamed supermarkets demanding firm, but not very ripe, fruit for the cardboard-like tomato offerings, but a recent article in Science explains that the problem is a malfunctioning gene.
Through most of the twentieth century, tomatoes have been selected to ripen uniformly. Heirloom tomatoes often have small patches of green and pale red once ripe, especially around the stem. These patches do not indicate lack of flavor or ripeness, but reflect how the sugar producing regions of the tomato fruit are distributed.
Just like we have mitochondria in our cells that burn sugar to create the ATP molecule that power everything in our bodies, plant cells have plastids. Like mitochondria, plastids have their own DNA and are inherited from only one parent. Green plastids, the chloroplasts and most famous of plastids, use light to split water into hydrogen and oxygen to fuel the production of the sugar glucose. Plastids of other colors, which give leaves their fall colors and flowers and fruits their many hues, produce carotenoids (a type of unfolded chlorophyll, but providing other colors) together with many byproducts that add aromas and flavor to the plant.
The team of researchers from UC Davis, Cornell, and Spain discovered that the pretty tomatoes we get at the supermarket have a genetic mutation causing them to have the desired uniform color but which also lessens the formation of those sugar producing chloroplasts. The culprit is SIGLK2, a Golden2-like (GLK) gene they identified in tomatoes. This gene produces a protein similar to the gene Merle Jenkins described in 1926 as being responsible for the corn stalk going from being green to a golden green with a cast of silver (his words for the color). The product of SIGLK2 is one of many different proteins that help control the photosynthesis in the plants. Without it there is less photosynthesis in the fruit (but not the leaves, as these get by with SIGLK1), which means less sugar and by-products, and therefore less taste and flavor for the fruit.
It is rare that a supermarket tomato is picked ripe. Often they are produced in greenhouses and picked while still green, transported, and when close to being placed for sale, treated with ethylene to trigger the ripening process. This artificial ripening is done by the fruit without the extra energy from the plant resulting in only a fraction of what the sugar and aroma compound production could have been.
In trying to create prettier fruit that looks riper, breeders killed the source of sweetness in the tomato. Tomatoes with SIGLK2 have more chloroplasts producing more sugars than the varieties that stock most supermarkets. And as any cook knows, when something lacks taste, or the taste is too bitter, no amount of aromatics can fix it. So next time your picking a tomato, look for signs of SIGLK2 working: a tinge of green at the stem and patchy color.

Alright kiddies, time for another drawing lesson! If there's anything that icy figures remind me of, it's the story about the 'Titanic'. In this lesson, I will show you "how to draw an iceberg". Though, I named this tutorial a glacier, I've decided to show you what a glacier/iceberg would look like at the top as well as underwater. Just the concept of the glacier alone, gives me chills. Knowing that these ice figures have so much more than meets the eye. This tutorial should give you very easy to draw steps in order to successfully create a glacier drawing. Make sure you have your pencil, paper and eraser handy. Don't forget to draw the first step lightly so you won't have any tracks of guides when you erase to ink. With that being said, I hope you will enjoy this one! I had fun working on this and hopefully you will too. Peace and love, don't forget to let me know what you'd like to see next.

Hungary's record of press freedom and human rights deteriorated in 2013, resulting in calls from some European lawmakers to suspend the country's voting rights in the European Union. Authorities adopted controversial changes to the constitution in March, including a provision limiting pre-election political advertising solely to broadcasters--most of which are controlled by or affiliated with allies of Prime Minister Viktor Orban. The amendments also curtailed the powers of Hungary's Constitutional Court by taking away its right to strike down unconstitutional laws. After news outlets tried to investigate allegations of government corruption, lawmakers introduced amendments to the Freedom of Information Act, restricting the amount of government data that individuals and nongovernmental groups, including media outlets, could access. In August, Orban faced criticism from press freedom advocates after he nominated an ally of his party, Fidesz, to lead the national Media Authority, which regulates all domestic and international media--including print, broadcast, and the Internet--as well as their publishers and service providers. In November, the Hungarian Parliament adopted the criminalization of libel, two weeks after the amendment was proposed by lawmakers.
Authorities adopted amendments to Hungary's Constitution in March that critics said pose threats to press freedom, curtail independence of the judiciary, criminalize homelessness, impose limits on religious freedom, and violate other rights of Hungarian citizens.
Section 5 of Article 5 of the amendments reads: "The right to freedom of speech may not be exercised with the aim of violating the dignity of the Hungarian nation or of any national, ethnic, racial or religious community. Members of such communities shall be entitled to enforce their claims in court against the expression of opinion which violates their community, invoking the violation of their human dignity as determined by law."
In a May 2013 report, the international human rights organization Human Rights Watch analyzed media legislation that Orban's government adopted after assuming office three years ago. The report said the legislation "had a negative impact on media freedom," and contributed, among other things, to the loss of editorial independence and the rise of self-censorship.
Based on the report's findings, the organization urged Hungarian authorities to implement a set of specific steps.
|Restructure the Media Authority and Media Council to ensure independence from the government by establishing a multiparty nomination system.
|Remove provisions imposing content regulation ensuring that media outlets and journalists can report freely without interference.
|Decrease disproportionately high fines for violations against the media laws by journalists and the media and ensure that rules are clear and foreseeable to avoid arbitrariness by the Media Council when ruling on violations and fines.
Within two weeks in late 2013, the Hungarian Parliament proposed and adopted vaguely worded amendments to the criminal code that criminalized libel and carried up to three years in prison for violators of the law.
The amendments criminalized the act of creating and distributing audio or video recordings that are found to pose harm to an individual's dignity, local and international press freedom monitors reported.
1 year in prison:
|to "those who make audio or video recordings of false, forged, or untrue content with the intention of discrediting other persons."
2 years in prison:
|to "those who--again with the intention of discrediting--make such recordings accessible to others, even if they only show them to just one person."
3 years in prison:
|to those who make the recordings available to the wider public; the same punishment is meted out if the recordings' contents are found to pose harm to the interests of others.
After the adoption in March 2013 of draconian amendments to the constitution, European lawmakers called for the suspension of Hungary's voting rights in the European Union under Article 7 of the EU Treaty. But the calls did not receive unilateral support in Parliament.
In a 370-to-249 vote, with 82 abstentions, lawmakers adopted a nonbinding resolution urging Hungary to bring its controversial legislation in line with European values. Among the recommendations made by the lawmakers was the guarantee of freedom of expression.
|To observe the positive obligation arising from European Court of Human Rights jurisprudence under Article 10 ECHR to protect freedom of expression as one of the preconditions for a functioning democracy.
|To respect, guarantee, protect and promote the fundamental right to freedom of expression and information, as well as media freedom and pluralism, and to refrain from developing or supporting mechanisms that threaten media freedom and journalistic and editorial independence.
|To make sure that objective, legally binding procedures and mechanisms are in place for the selection and appointment of heads of public media, management boards, media councils, and regulatory bodies, in line with the principles of independence, integrity, experience and professionalism, representation of the entire political and social spectrum, legal certainty, and continuity.
|To provide legal guarantees regarding full protection of the confidentiality-of-sources principle and to strictly apply related European Court of Human Rights case law.
