CCA Dinner - one last time please?
Can we get a roll call for the CCA dinner on Friday? I spoke via email w/ Doug Parker (VP of Metro/Boston CCA) who informed me that it's best to provide a list of names to Dave Rimmer before showing up at the door.
I get home thursday night from a road trip. So I will be remote for a couple of days and thought we should figure this out we we can. Last I remember we had a full table with a few people unsure whether they or their spouses could make it? How about a reply to this thread if you can make it, and how many folks in your party. There are ten per table.
RE:CCA Dinner - one last time please?
You better be mixing in some fishin' with the business travel.
2 seats: me & Peter Heino.

Unfortunately I'm Twin City bound! That auger weighs too much for domestic luggage. I hate cutting out that 70' long hole for a decent cast and nothing's taking dries this time of year. Was a lot different the two years we did a Miami meeting... I cut a deal with my former employer to fly in early with Saturday night stay to cut airfare in half. Spent the extra days exploring the Keys, losing my bonefish cherry and wrestling with some nasty 'cuda.
We've been talking w/ Microsoft lately, my fingers are crossed for a Seattle meeting say in mid-April. Geez, have you seen the savings for a saturday night stay airfare lately?
See you at the dinner.
Bob Pink? Al? GregO? Are you and the others who mentioned in earlier posts still on for the dinner?
RE:CCA Dinner - one last time please?
Sorry. We have to pass. It seems to me finding a baby sitter was much easier for my parents.... but I guess that's the times we live in....
RE:CCA Dinner - one last time please?
Bob Pink mentioned via email that he will attend.
Filmed at 11.

Bush would not let his aides testify under oath and claimed executive privilege for everything, the fiasco with firing the attorneys, WMD'S, and even when Pat Tillman was killed.

Bush also took an oath and swore to uphold our Constitution. He broke that oath by authorizing illegal wiretaps and such. See:

Legal scholars say the scope and aggression of Bush's assertions that he can bypass laws represent a concerted effort to expand his power at the expense of Congress, upsetting the balance between the branches of government. The Constitution is clear in assigning to Congress the power to write the laws and to the president a duty ''to take care that the laws be faithfully executed."
Bush, however, has repeatedly declared that he does not need to ''execute" a law he believes is unconstitutional.
Just who gave Bush the power to decide what is or is not unconstitutional?

Gilbane Conference San Francisco
"Where Content Management Meets Social Media"
Your content is your business.
As the lines between content technologies continue to blur, the business implications of your content strategies need to be crystal clear. You need to make your web content part of an integrated platform for customers, partners, and employees. You need to understand which social media outlets fit into your overall content and communication channels. And you have to hold down costs for content management and delivery in ways that don't slow down your company's ability to innovate and grow.
Acquia's Drupal Adventure Guide, Kieran Lal, will be participating in a panel entitled "Living in a Free World."
The costs of content development, editorial verification, and the infrastructure for delivery are becoming exceedingly difficult to justify when the consumer increasingly expects to consume that content for free, and advertising revenues are not as predictable. The thrust of the panel session will be on how publishers and media companies can build new revenue models on the Web as their mainstay print publications and the companion ad revenue dollars continue to shrink.

Waukeegan, IL
The 95 ECNL team finished 7th overall in the ECNL B flight which put them into the top 8 and a chance to battle for the B National Championship at the ECNL National Championships in Waukegan, IL June 27-30.
In the quarter-final game, they took on #2 seed Carolina Elite Soccer Academy and won 1-0 on a Simone Kolander goal with 3 minutes to play in regulation.
In the Semi-Final game, MTA faced #3 seed Solar-Chelsea from Texas. Solar went up 1-0 in the 60th minute but five minutes later, Jenna Roering answered to tie the game at 1-1. The game ended at 1-1 and in OT, MTA were awarded a penalty with 5 minutes to play that could have sealed the game. In one of the most bizarre keeper positioning moves seen in a game, the keep stood by her right post giving the MTA shooter the entire net to shoot at. As the MTA player approached the ball, the Solar keeper slid across the line towards the middle of the goal. The MTA player guessed correctly, and shot low to the keepers right only to hit the post. The game headed for PK's. MTA keeper Lizzy Christ made a save on Solar's first shooter which proved pivotal as MTA won 5-4.
In the National Championship Game, MTA took on #1 see McLean Youth Soccer. McLean got on the board first midway through the first half and MTA tied the game late in the half. McLean were too much for MTA in the second half and netted 2 more goals to win 3-1.
MTA finishes as the Runner-up in the B group.

When Kevin Cooper, executive director of the Siesta Key Chamber of Commerce wraps up his day at the office, he heads home to do some reading. Unfortunately, his literature usually consists of dense business textbooks.
In addition to working full time at the chamber, Cooper is a full-time student, who is taking online classes at night to earn his MBA from Florida State University. In his free time, he and his wife, Missy, work to remodel their home's interior. When Missy Cooper learned of the Design and Dine contest, she thought it would be the perfect opportunity to earn the couple some much-needed relaxation.
"Kevin works so hard," she said. "It's pretty much been nonstop work for two-and-a-half of the three years we've been married. We've finished most of the remodeling, and the backyard is kind of the last, looming project. When he graduates in May, it would be amazing if we could finally enjoy some time to just hang out and relax."
The couple met in Akron, Ohio, after Kevin Cooper retired from a six-year career in the Army. After moving to Sarasota in 2008, and they both say they've enjoyed the change. They regularly compare the local temperature with that of their home state as a reminder.
If selected as winners, Kevin Cooper says he and his wife would like to add vegetation, a fire pit and a water feature, but they are excited to see what the professional landscape architects envision for their final house project.

Type: Feature Request
Status: Open

Component/s: Accessibility, Application Security > LDAP
Branch Version/s:5.1.x

Liferay Contributor's Agreement:Accept
As I prefer to have instance specific configuration already on instance creation (eg. default admin and ldap settings) I ported it from 4.3 to current head and made it configurable in portal-ext.properties to avoid confusion (
Attached is ConfigurationImpl.java and PropsUtil.java (rev 21163).
Set include-and-override=portal-$
.properties in portal-ext.properties to enable the feature.
I'd very much like to have this included again. Please let me know if I can do something else.

Great! Yeah, this feature is really needed. It is not enough to give a few properties to the instance in Enterprise Admin portlet after instance creation.
I would also very much like to see this feature included back into the main code base.
I updated the patches to current head. Attached is ConfigurationImpl.java and PropsUtil.java (rev 27078).
Set include-and-override=portal-${easyconf:companyId}
.properties in portal-ext.properties to enable the feature.
Instance specific configuration was a killer feature of the liferay portal. When you realize even smaller projects with liferay such as we do it's hard to convince the customers to pay $700+ for a whole liferay instance with 1GB RAM. When you can share an instance with other customers the hosting price comes down and we can fully profit from the portal infrastructure.
Are there others that miss this feature? Maybe we can convince Liferay inc. that it wasn't a good idea to remove it? If that's somehow impossible I ask for help in the community to test and contribute to the patches I made. Some settings such as layout.default.template.id and locales don't work properly in the instance specific configuration files but most of it works for me. Maybe we can at least provide a patchset that makes instance specific configuration fully work again.
I totally agree with you Marc. I've submitted a feature suggestion to the message boards to have it re-introduced. Hopefully it will raise awareness of the issue:
Hey Marc, Ben,
That feature lead to several issues, confusion and inconsistencies, which is why it was removed.
The alternative now is the Portal > Settings item within the Control Panel.
Hi Jorge,
Thanks for the information. I assume that the feature in Portal > Settings is only available in 5.2 and not 5.1? I'm currently using 5.1 and couldn't find anywhere that provides equivalent functionality. Can you confirm that the Portal > Settings function allows properties to be defined per-instance/company? Can these properties then be programmatically queried via the PrefsPropsUtil.getXxx(companyId, name) methods? That is the kind of functionality that I need.
Hi Jorge,
Thank you for your answer! I need to specify the following settings per instance. Is there currently a way to set them instance specific or are you planning to make them configurable via the settings page in the control panel?

I think there are two different issues here. The first is the ability to specify your own per-instance properties. The second is the ability to set standard portal properties per-instance. I'm not sure if both were previously possible or only the first.
I am particularly interested in being able to specify my own per-instance properties as a way to customise the portal for different instances. However, it would also be useful to be able to set many of the standard portal properties on a per-instance basis. I would have thought this should include all standard portal properties that don't need to apply globally. Some ones I can think of in addition to the list above are those related to user layouts:
It would be useful to be able to configure these on a per-instance basis. I'm not sure whether both of the issues mentioned above are provided for in Portal > Settings in the Control Panel?
I added this patch and tried to have a "per instance" configuration using the include-and-override=portal-$
.properties. My need is to have different subsets of available locales so I added the following property to the portal-${easyconf:companyId}
The problem is that this property seems to be ignored and when i publish a webcontent the combobox "Language" is populated with the full list and not my "per instance" list. Everything works if I set this property in the portal-ext.properties but I need a different list for each instance, could it be fixed?
Thank you
Hi Andrea
If you aren't sure if your setup works in general add the following property to an instance specific configuration file:
This should remove the birthday field from the create account portlet on the instance with the specific configuration.
But even if this works, I know that locales don't work properly with my patch (see my comment from 10/Mar/09). I've already tried to fix this but didn't have enough time to track it down. In LanguageImpl.java the _getInstance() function creates a LanguageImpl per instance. This LanguageImpl get's it's locales from PropsValues.LOCALES which itself calls PropsUtil.getArray(PropsKeys.LOCALES) which is already patched to read the instance specific configuration file. That's how far I came. But there must be some other locale functionality which makes it stop working. Maybe others could help?
Hi Mark,
I'm new to Liferay (it's just a week I'm working on it) but digging into the code I found a possible solution to the locales issue.
in PropsValues there's
public static String[] LOCALES = PropsUtil.getArray(PropsKeys.LOCALES);
that is a class variable and is accessed by the LanguageImpl constructor to get the locales list. While the PropsUtil.getArray(PropsKeys.LOCALES); has the logic to manage per instace configuration, the PropsValues.LOCALES is static and, from the Sun website:
"If the declarator is for a class variable (that is, a static field), then the variable initializer is evaluated and the assignment performed exactly once, when the class is initialized" so the LOCALES field once initialized wont be reevaluated and every LanguageImpls will have the same locales list.
To solve this i modified the LanguageImpl line 548 with:
String[] localesArray = PropsUtil.getArray(PropsKeys.LOCALES);
It seems working to me but as said I'm totally new to Liferay and perhaps I'm missing something thus it would be nice if some expert could confirm this.
Hey Andrea
Great, that sounds like the solution. I'll try it next week and create a new patchset of the current 5.2.x branch.
Hi Marc,
I'm still tring to understand the code (the "per instance" property file seems to be very important to my company) so this is what i found.
Your PropsUtil.java seems to come from the 5.1 version and gives some error on the 5.2.2 (the version i patched). in particular there was an error with the default.liferay.home property thus I adapted your patched version to the PropsUtil in the 5.2.2 (hopefully with no errors) and everything seems fine now (I'll attach the PropsUtil.java).
I also thought about the PropsValues class and it seems to me that a very structural change is needed to have your patch fully working (in 5.2.2, don't know about the 5.1). I think all the class variables in this class are populated with the portal.properties/portal-ext.properties logic ignoring the portal-$
.properties and, if so, everywhere in the Liferay code where a PropsValue static filed is accessed the "per instance" logic doesn't apply. To have your patch fully working, class variables in PropsValues should be replaced by static method calls where the method body is something like:
This would call your "per instance" logic everytime a PropsValues is requested but, as said, it would have a very big impact on the Liferay code.
Alrighty guys, back by popular demand.
Disabled by default though,
java ... company-id-properties=true
to enable it.
I disabled it by default because if you enable it, it forces a creation of a new ConfigurationImpl for every instance, and for those who don't want it, it's unnecessary memory usage. I also updated the documentation on it to make it easier to understand.
Thanks to all who wanted this (it helps when the community shouts, cause then we know ppl care).
- Specify where to get the overridden properties. Updates should not be made
- on this file but on the overridden version of this file.
- The default read order is: portal.properties and then
- portal-ext.properties.
include-and-override=$ {liferay.home}
- Each portal instance can have its own overriden property file following
- the convention portal-companyId.properties. To enable this feature, set
- the "company-id-properties" system property to true.
- To enable:
- java ... company-id-properties=true
- The read order will now be: portal.properties, then portal-ext.properties,
- and then portal-liferay.com.properties.
include-and-override=portal-$ {easyconf:companyId}
- Additional property files can be used by setting the "external-properties"
- system property.
- A common use case is to keep legacy property values when upgrading to
- newer versions of Liferay. To enable:
- java ... -Dexternal-properties=portal-legacy-5.1.properties
- The read order will now be: portal.properties, then portal-ext.properties,
- and then portal-legacy-5.1.properties.
include-and-override=$ {external-properties}
Hey Marc, Josh,
Note that although this has been added back the recommended way to set instance specific properties is through the Control Panel >> Portal >> Settings UI.
If there are some settings that you miss there, let us know and we'll add them
Jorge, most of the options starting with layout. are the ones that come to my mind. For instance in some instances you might want to have user pages and on other you might not.
Hi Jorge, this is what I usually want to define instance specific:

In addition to the aforementioned, here are the properties that I use:

Here are mine properties:
It seems there are a lot of properties here and, in general every different Liferay user could have the need to set any of the available properties. If you aim to have the Panel >> Portal >> Settings interface like the place to go to set instace specific properties I think you should provide there some kind of interface to set every property or to edit the property file. Just a suggestion.
Brian, thank you very much for adding this feature back in! Having it disabled by default is fine with me as it is easy to enable if needed.
Jorge, I think it would be useful to include all portal properties that do not need to apply globally to allow instances to be customised as much as possible.
While it is good to be able to configure these settings in the GUI there are reasons why you might want to use the properties files. The first is that it means you can pre-configure a properties file and just deploy it to a Liferay Portal instance rather than having to configure each property manually in the GUI. The second is if you want to add your own custom properties that aren't part of the standard set. I'm using the latter to customise certain parts of the system that can't otherwise be customised. Any chance that we could also add our own properties in the GUI?
In previous versions PropsUtil had a method get(long companyId, String key). This method does not seem to have been reintroduced. What if I want to retrieve a property for an instance other than the instance of the current thread? An example of this would be a background job that is not associated with a request. If the job was for a specific instance then it would be nice to store the properties for the job in the instance-specific properties even though the job runs in a separate thread.
I'm also a bit confused about the difference between PropsUtil and PrefsPropsUtil. The latter seems to load overriden properties from the instance-specific properties file in some circumstances but when I looked in the code all I could see was it loading properties from the database so I'm not sure how it is getting them from the file. When should PropsUtil be used and when should PrefsPropsUtil be used?
Hi Ben,
You should use PrefsPropsUtil for any property whose value can also be set from the Portal >> Settings UI. BTW, we added many more properties to that UI as suggested by previous comments and the change were backported to 5.2.x so you may want to check if you find what you want. You can check the changes in
Hi Jorge,
Thanks for the clarification. Can you confirm that PrefsPropsUtil will load properties from the database and then from the properties files? If that is the case then I think there is a problem with the way this functionality has been re-introduced. From what I can tell there are versions of each method in PrefsPropsUtil to specify the company ID to retrieve the property for. However, in PropsUtil there is no way to specify the company ID but the way this functionality has been re-introduced it will retrieve the instance-specific property for the company ID of the current thread.
I am assuming that if PrefsPropsUtil does not find the property in the database it will fall back to PropsUtil to load it from the properties files? In the case that the company ID has been specified in the call to PrefsPropsUtil this will work fine if the company ID is the same as the current thread since any fall-back to PropsUtil (i.e. the properties files) will use the correct company ID. However, if the company ID specified in the call to PrefsPropsUtil is not the same company ID as the current thread then the fall-back to PropsUtil may load the incorrect property value since it will use the company ID of the current thread.
I think the fix for this would be to add methods to PropsUtil to load properties by a specified company ID and if PrefsPropsUtil falls back to PropsUtil because the property is not set in the database then it should pass through the company ID if specified.
I hope this makes sense. An example of a situation where I have found this to be a problem is loading instance-specific properties from a background scheduled job where the current thread has no company ID associated with it. In this case a call to PrefsPropsUtil does not use the specified company ID to load the property from the instance-specific properties file, it just uses the default properties files (portal-ext.properties, portal.properties).
I have reopened this issue because I do not believe the fix addresses the situation where you need to load an instance-specific property for a company that is not the company of the current thread (e.g. in a background scheduled job). See my previous comment for further information about this issue.
I would primarily like to change:
per portal instance.
I have enabled the feature by including in my portal-ext.properties:
and by setting:
JAVA_OPTS="$JAVA_OPTS -Dcompany-id-properties=true"
in my run.conf
I have created a portal-mysecondportalinstance.properties file where mysecondportalinstance is the webId of my second portal instance. It does not seem to pick up any overriden properties however. Am I missing something?
I read here:
Also, my understanding is that at this stage only some of the properties in the portal.properties file can be overridden per-instance. I'm not sure exactly which ones can and can't - you might just have to experiment.
Is this true?
PS: liferay.com is de webId of the default portal instance, not the companyId?
Hi Edgar
default.landing.page.path cannot be set in portal-${companyId}
.properties. Since the 5.2 branch, additional settings can be made in Control Panel > Portal > Settings. On the first tab you'll find Default Landing Page. These settings are instance specific. Please note that these additional settings were not in the 5.2 bundle but they should be in the current 5.3.0 bundle.
Regards, Marc
Thanks Marc! Looking forward to work with the 5.3.0 bundle when it is out.
I have not looked at the latest 5.2 branch code but is there also support for custom instance specific properties from the Control Panel?
Hi Edgar
Yes, we are working with the latest 5.2 branch and can set "Default Landing Page" for every instance in the portal over the control panel.
Regards, Marc
Ok clear, but can you also edit all the other portal properties there for every instance? And can you also add your own custom portal properties? We have some custom portal properties in our portal-ext.properties that we would like to configure differently for the portal instances we have.
I would also like to be able to edit custom properties through the UI. Custom properties are an important way to customise Liferay outside of the customisations that are already possible.
Hi Edgar and Ben
I see the following situation:
Configure the default portal properties for all instances here. Some of them may also be configured instance specific over the ui. In that case the ui takes precedence. Of cause you can also define your custom, global portal properties here.
You can only configure custom, instance specific properties here. Liferay properties cannot be overridden instance specific, as the calls to the getProperty() functions are static. Again, this is where you want to put your custom, instance specific portal properties.
Configure a subset of the portal properties on an instance specific basis over the ui. Not all properties may be configured here. In the past liferay developers asked which properties we wished and implemented them. So give it a try if you need more properties.
Thank you for any corrections!
Regards, Marc
I'd like to see almost everything be configured at the per instance level at most. I keep debating on the database connection. I can think of a couple of use cases where even the database connection should be set on a per instance basis. And I can't see where it would break the people who don't need it.
Same here. We run into big issues now because this is not possible. We might even have to run two completely separate Liferay installations because we need to quite different portals. It is a big shame that we would need two Liferay installations to achieve this.
Hi Marc,
Thanks for the information. Personally I think the ideal situation would be as follows:
Global modified Liferay properties and custom properties. Overrides portal.properties.
Instance-specific Liferay properties and custom properties. Overrides portal-ext.properties and portal.properties.
Instance-specific Liferay properties (subset) and custom properties. Overrides portal-${companyId}
.properties, portal-ext.properties and portal.properties.
This would provide the greatest flexibility. It is often desirable to configure properties in the various properties files because then you can pre-configure appropriate settings rather than having to manually enter them into the UI on each deployment. It is also desirable to be able to configure custom properties in the UI in addition to the Liferay properties as a way to override the properties files.
If this is not possible then it would at least be useful to be able to configure custom properties in the UI in addition to Marc's specification above.
Hi Ben
The big plus of the instance specific configuration over the ui is that you don't have to restart the application server after
changing settings. In my case most of the settings are the same for all instances and I can easily configure the varying settings manually over the ui. I think it's just confusing that portal-$
.properties was reintroduced but it just doesn't work for liferay properties, only for custom properties. This should be clarified in the portal.properties description. Maybe something like this:
- Each portal instance can have it's own overridden property file following
- the convention portal-companyWebId.properties. Use it to define or override
- your custom properties. You cannot override the default Liferay properties here.
- Use the settings section in the enterprise admin instead.
Regards, Marc
Hi guys, thank you for that great improvement.
IMHO it can be useful to have specified in portal.properties something like this:
- This property can be set in Portal settings portlet.
Can you please update this ticket with a proper component selection?
If you do not have edit permissions, please add it as a comment.
I am using Liferay 6.0 and saw that some properties are made instance configurable like properties for
terms of use and authentication type by keeping them as preference configurable setting ,
can there be a way I can customize other property from PropsValues like (PropsValues.USERS_REMINDER_QUERIES_ENABLED) which are static variables.
Though I am able yo fetch instance specific properties by kernel PropsUtil but PropsValues are referenced in many places in existing Liferay code and cant change it to PropsUtil , please suggest an alternate way to load instance specific class .
According to my earlier comment:
I mean that if something can be set at both Portal settings portlet and portal.properties there should be some comment line in portal.properties nearby that value.
Arjun, I know this is not answer to your question but maybe it could be helpful for you.
From my experience: Avoid using portal instances feature as long as it is possible. I prefer to create new server and database instance.
In preparation for Ideation; we are merging New Feature and Improvement tickets into a singular ticket type called "Feature Request". Additional information to follow soon.

Brewers win series in Miami
Figaro, Gomez star in 10-1 victory over Marlins
MIAMI - Carlos Gomez had four hits, including two triples, and Jonathan Lucroy drove in four runs to lead the Milwaukee Brewers to a 10-1 win over the Miami Marlins on Wednesday.
Gomez also drove in three runs and scored three runs. Jean Segura homered for the Brewers, who have won five of six.
Alfredo Figaro (1-0) pitched seven scoreless innings to earn his first victory since Sept. 26, 2009 at the Chicago White Sox. He retired 16 in a row at one point and struck out four.
Both Gomez and Lucroy had bases-clearing triples as the two combined to go 12 for 24 with 12 RBIs in the three-game series.
It was the largest margin of victory for the Brewers this season.
Miami starter Kevin Slowey (2-6) allowed six runs -- five earned -- and nine hits in five innings.
He was on three days' rest after he pitched seven scoreless innings of relief to earn the victory in Saturday's 2-1, 20-inning win over the Mets.

Serves 10 to 12
This cake's warm spices are complemented by bourbon or Cognac and the crunch of sweet candied pecans. Bake the cake at least a day ahead to let the flavors deepen.
Position a rack in the center of the oven and heat the oven to 350°F. Generously butter and flour a 10- to 12-cup tube pan.
In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, ginger, cinnamon, salt, baking soda, nutmeg, and cloves. In a measuring cup, combine the buttermilk, bourbon, and vanilla.
In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter on medium speed until creamy. Gradually add the oil, beating until combined. Add the brown sugar. Increase the mixer speed to high and beat, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed, until light and fluffy, about 4 minutes. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well on medium-high speed after each addition. Beat in the pumpkin.
Reduce the speed to low, slowly pour in the buttermilk mixture, and mix until combined. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the batter, mixing just until combined. Use a rubber spatula to fold in the pecans. Scrape the batter into the prepared pan, smooth the top, and tap the pan on the counter once or twice to settle the batter.
Bake until a wooden skewer inserted into the center of the cake comes out with just a few moist crumbs clinging to it, 45 to 55 minutes. Leave the oven on. Cool the cake in the pan on a rack for 10 to 15 minutes and then invert the cake onto the rack, remove the pan, and let cool completely, at least 3 hours.
Heat the brown sugar, honey, and 1 Tbs. water in a 1-quart saucepan over medium heat, stirring until the sugar is dissolved. Add the pecans and stir until coated. Spread the pecans curved side up on an oiled rimmed baking sheet and bake in the 350°F oven until fragrant and shiny, 7 to 10 minutes. Transfer the pecans with a metal spatula to parchment to crisp and cool completely, about 20 minutes.
Set the cake on a rack over a rimmed baking sheet.
In a 3-quart saucepan, combine the brown sugar, butter, corn syrup, bourbon, and salt. Cook over medium heat, stirring, until the butter melts and the sugar dissolves, about 2 minutes. Add the cream, raise the heat to high, and bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. Continue to boil, stirring occasionally, for exactly 1 minute. Remove from the heat. Gently whisk in the confectioners' sugar and the vanilla until completely smooth. Let stand until the glaze is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon but still warm and pourable, 3 to 8 minutes. If a skin forms, gently stir it back into the glaze with a spatula; don't over-stir or the glaze may crystallize.
Pour the glaze slowly and evenly over the cake. Decorate with the candied pecans while the glaze is warm. When the glaze is set, after about 15 minutes, transfer the cake to a serving plate.
You can make the candied pecans up to 1 week ahead and store in an airtight container.
For the best flavor and texture, the cake should be baked at least 1 day before serving, and it can be stored (unglazed) at room temperature for up to 2 days: set the completely cooled cake on a plate, wrap tightly in 2 layers of plastic wrap.
The unglazed cake can be frozen for up to 1 week: Set the completely cooled cake on a 10-inch cardboard cake round. Wrap tightly in 2 layers of plastic wrap, then in foil, and freeze. Up to 10 hours before serving, remove the foil but not the plastic wrap from the cake. When completely thawed, unwrap and glaze the cake.
The cake can be glazed up to 10 hours before serving. Keep the cake at room temperature after glazing.

Horford helps Hawks beat Bucks 104-99
Milwaukee has lost three straight
MILWAUKEE - With Eastern Conference playoff positioning still on the line, the Atlanta Hawks held their ground Sunday against a Milwaukee Bucks squad looking to move up.
Atlanta pulled away late, weathering a Monta Ellis surge and taking advantage of Milwaukee errors in the closing minutes for a 104-99 victory at the BMO Harris Bradley Center.
Al Horford had 24 points and Josh Smith 23 for Atlanta, which entered the game fifth in the East, 3.5 games ahead of Milwaukee, which currently holds the eighth seed.
The Hawks also got 16 points from Devin Harris and 14 from Jeff Teague while shooting 50 percent (39-of-78) from the field and making 10 of 26 3-pointers.
"Our starters played particularly well," Atlanta head coach Larry Drew said. "But the guys who came off the bench made the difference in this game. Playing on the road, you have to play with a certain mentality and I thought we had that today."
Milwaukee shot at a 45.7 percent clip but made just 5-of-21 from beyond the arc, with four of those coming in the fourth quarter. Ellis led the Bucks with 20 points, while Brandon Jennings finished with 12 points and 13 assists, and Larry Sanders had 15 points and 12 rebounds.
The Bucks still are well ahead of Philadelphia for the final Eastern Conference berth, but have lost three straight and are trying to avoid a potential first-round matchup with Miami.
"We just have to stick together," said Milwaukee's Ersan Ilyasova, who returned after missing three games with a hip injury and had 19 points with 10 rebounds. "We're a really good team. Now we're on a bad streak but we don't have a lot of games left. Every one counts for us. All we have to do is win games."
Epke Udoh's runner as time expired in the first half brought the Bucks within one, 50-49, at intermission. Milwaukee shot 52.4 percent in the first half, compared to 48 percent for Atlanta, but trailed in large part because the Hawks made 7 of 19 3-pointers while Milwaukee missed all three of its attempts.
The Bucks created a little bit of separation early in the third, pulling ahead by four on Marquis Daniels' 14-footer with 5:54 left in the quarter.
Atlanta came right back and took the lead. Ilyasova answered with back-to-back buckets, putting Milwaukee up 67-64 with 3:24 left. The Hawks tied again, but Teague fouled Jennings on a successful 3-pointer, and after Jennings converted the free throw, Milwaukee again led by four, 72-68, with 1:39 on the clock.
Anthony Tolliver and Udoh traded baskets before Teague's floater with 0.8 seconds left sent the teams into the final quarter tied at 74-74.
Atlanta went ahead by six early in the fourth, as the Bucks missed five straight shots before Sanders made it 85-81 on a put-back with 6:07 to play. J.J. Redick finally snapped Milwaukee's day-long drought with a long 3-pointer with 5:25 left to make it 87-84.
Ellis hit three straight 3-pointers late in the fourth, but the Hawks erased a five-point deficit in the final two minutes as the Bucks committed four turnovers.
"Just a little miscommunication and that's on me," Milwaukee coach Jim Boylan said. "I have to take responsibility for that. Just a little lost focus at the end there and again, that's on me. I have to make our guys more aware and execute better at the end."
After Horford made two free throws with 20 seconds left, Ellis missed a 3-pointer and Dunleavy was called for traveling. Teague hit two more free throws with nine seconds left to clinch the victory for Atlanta.
NOTES: Jennings has 13 points-assists double-doubles this season, the most by a Bucks player since Sam Cassell in 2000-01 ... The Hawks improved to 3-0 against the Bucks this season. The two teams meet again April 12 in Atlanta ... Kyle Korver made three 3-pointers and now has at least one in 63 consecutive games, the longest streak since Reggie Miller had a 68-game run during the 1996-97 season ... Sanders has now pulled down 10 or more rebounds in each of his last eight games ... Atlanta's Zaza Pachulia missed his 12th consecutive game with a sore Achilles tendon.

The Voice Versus Badr Hari Takes a Long, Hard Look a K-1's Bad Boy
- Written by Dave Walsh
Badr Hari's public image has been dragged through the mud over the last few years, which has both earned him the ire of many fans but in the same vein made him larger than life and one of the biggest names in the kickboxing world, bar none. Some say that no attention is bad attention for the famous, and in Badr Hari's case the mythos surrounding him, his skill and him as a fighter has only grown. There have been a few interviews over the past few months which have painted Badr Hari in a very, very shades of grey light, with him looking like a sociopath at times. So when it was announced that Michael Schiavello would interview him for his Voice Versus series on HDnet, I wasn't sure how to feel. Then when Schiavello talked about how it was a rather "dark" episode for the usually light-hearted series I was expecting a lot more of the no-good Badr Hari.
Thankfully Schiavello, who is himself a huge Badr Hari and kickboxing fan knows how to walk the line really well in interviews such as this. Schiavello made sure to switch things up from the tough questions that Hari seemed to pause and really have to stop and think during and the questions that had Hari laughing and joking around. Some of the questions, such as how does he feel about knocking out opponents and what happened in those terrible DQ losses where his temper got the best of him show the darker side of Hari, and just how intense he really can be. Then he switches things up to talk about what kind of movies Badr Hari likes and plays the knock out, choke out, wedgie and bowl of fried shrimp game.
I think for Badr Hari this interview was important, as in the United States a lot of the interviews we've seen from Hari have been in Dutch and translated, sometimes a bit too literally and do not paint him in the best light. Hari showed some serious signs of growth when it came to talking about some of his criminal connections in the past, and he talks about him being an impressionable kid and that he has matured a lot and moved away from that. Badr Hari's career came into the limelight at the tender age of 20, where it is entirely possible to imagine a kid who worked hard to come up and become a name being offered things and not knowing how to say no.
Kudos to Schiavello and HDnet for taking the time to interview one of the most popular kickboxers in the world and actually taking the time to let him tell his side of the story as well as have some fun with him. Be sure to watch it on HDnet this Friday evening, June 24th at 10PM Eastern, followed by It's Showtime Amsterdam.

it's just best if we all resign ourselves to the fact that we need to temper our expectations for this season the rest of the way ... i thought, with this schedule, that this was maybe a 16-14/15-15 team at best .. any better than that would have just been a bonus, IMO ... this program is headed in the right direction with CJJ at the helm ..
we've done an OK job protecting the basketball for the most part this season and have caused problems with our press ... but we just don't have the depth to keep it up .. we just need to shoot the ball a lot better ..
I'm very glad you realized I was talking about Hammink in my post
Coleman is a 3/4 to me, but he can hit from outside so if we had some bigs he would do great playing those positions. As it is now, he's forced to play much bigger guys and has a little trouble down there. I wish he was a couple of inches taller. We really need Carmouche to score. If he scores everything else works a little better.

Where I stayed
The Old Presbytery
On Tuesday, Linda and I left the Lawcus Farmhouse and headed out toward Kinsale with a stop along the way at the Rock of Cashel. This title does not give this site justice. It is a monastery, church, graveyard, etc. built on top of this huge rocky hill and would be absolutely impossible to penetrate. From the top, the view of the surrounding area is breathtaking and what surrounds you on that top is humbling. It dates back to the 12th century, with new parts being added every few hundred years. While the roof has crumbled in, it is amazingly preserved - even some of the frescoes on the ceiling are still visible. There are headstones in the cemetary that go back 500 years! Both Linda and I were both completely awestruck. We were finally able to drag ourselves away and drove on to Kinsale. Absolutely beautiful scenery on the way, especially along the smaller "highways". That is a joke!!! These roads are equivalent to the width of our bike paths! And, they are two lanes!!!! I haven't killed anyone yet but I think Linda has started to say her prayers at night.
We arrived in Kinsale and immediately fell in love. It is a beautiful harbor town with multi-colored buildings, fantastic restaurants and great little pubs with traditional music. Although it is quite touristy, it definitely maintains its' quaintness and it is a real treat to spend three days here. We didn't realize how tired we were until we settled into the "Old Presby" (our lovely bed and breakfast) so we have definitely taken it easier here. Having someone make my breakfast and having to get up early to actually eat it is wearing a little thin, so we arrive for the morning meal at the last possible minute. Then we spend the day exploring, brousing and shopping with a break here and there for a half pint of guinness. It really has been nice.
We are on our way tomorrow to Kenmare, driving around the coastline to get there. We understand that it is spectacular scenery so we have both charged up our cameras in anticipation.
I just want to say, if I were to be asked what is most striking about Ireland, it would be tough to answer. The scenery is beautiful and the historical presence gives me goose-bumps. But, as the worlds' history truly belongs to all of us, I would have to say that what really makes Ireland, is the Irish. They are friendly, warm and accommodating. They have a great wit and a relaxed resilience that could bite you if you tried to take advantage. They kind of remind me of the old punching bag blow up doll my brother had when he was a kid. No matter how much you kept punching it, it still popped back up, sometimes to smack you in the head. Their most precious gift, though, is their love of words. They are poetic, passionate and love to tell stories. You will find poems and quotes everywhere you go, all written by the multitude of famous writers, poets and philosophers who are claimed by Ireland.
I will sign off now but I will leave you with a beautiful poem Linda and I read yesterday by the harbor that has been dedicated to all the men from Kinsale lost at sea. I miss everyone and look forward to telling you all the great stories from Ireland.
"His hooker's in the scilly van
When seines are in the foam.
But money never made the man
Nor wealth a happy home.
Bless'd with love and liberty
While he can trim a sail.
He'll trust in God, and cling to me
The Boatmen of Kinsale."
-Thomas Osborne Davies, 1814-45

Badgers' Ammerman makes trip of a lifetime
Women's hockey star spends a month in Kenya
MADISON - Badger women's hockey player Brittany Ammerman has made plenty of road trips for her sport, but the one she made last May, she says, changed her life.
Ammerman joined 12 other UW students on a trip to Kenya as part of a group called "Health By Motorbike."
Their mission is to educate Kenyans on women's health.
The program was created by professor Araceli Alonso, a registered nurse and professor of women's studies at the University of Wisconsin. Araceli visited Kenya a few years ago and many women there expressed their interest and need to learn more about maternal health, childbirth and women's health in general.
Ammerman was in Kenya for a month working on the education process.
"We saw 13-year olds that were pregnant. We saw 47-year olds that were pregnant with their ninth child," said Ammerman. "It's very hard to describe what we saw in the slums, but it was almost traumatizing and life changing."
Ammerman touched the lives of many Kenyans, young and old. "You're interacting with these kids and they're having a blast when there's feces on their feet and they don't have a place to sleep. Playing soccer with a kid for ten minutes was the best ten minutes of their day - and you've changed their lives and they can remember that and find joy in that."Badgers' Ammerman makes trip of a lifetime

Cheap SATA Disks in a Dell PowerEdge T410
A non-profit organisation I support has just bought a Dell PowerEdge T410 server to be mainly used as a file server. We need a reasonable amount of space and really good reliability features because the system may have periods without being actively monitored, it also has to be relatively cheap.
Dell servers are quite cheap, but disks are not cheap at all when Dell sells them. I get the impression that disks and RAM are major profit centers for Dell and that the profit margins on the basic servers are quite small. So naturally we decided to buy some SATA disks from a local store, one advantage of this is that Dell sells nothing bigger than 2TB while 3TB disks are available cheaply everywhere else.
So we bought 4 cheap 3TB (2.7TiB) SATA disks, connected them to the server, and found that only 2TiB was accessible. The Dell Tech Center says that some of the RAID controllers don't support anything larger than 2TiB [1]. Obviously we have one of the older models. There's lots of SATA sockets on the motherboard that could be used, however there is one problem.
The above picture is the side view of the T410, it was taken with a Samsung Galaxy S so the quality is a little poor (click for the original picture). The server is quite neat, not many cables for a system with 6 disks, not the 12 separate cables you would get in a typical white-box system.
The above picture shows the disk enclosure. You can see that each disk has a single connector for power and data, also the disks aren't separate, multiple disks have the same power wires and the data cables are paired.
Above you can see the SAS controller, it has two large connectors that can each handle the data cables for 4 disks, nothing like the standard cables.
It's easy to buy SATA data cables and connect them, but there are no spare power cables in the box. The connector that supplies power to all the disks appears to be something proprietary to Dell which goes straight to the double-connectors on each disk that supply power and data. This setup makes cabling very neat but also provides no good option for cabling regular disks. I'm sure I could make my own cables and if I hunted around the net enough I could probably buy some matching power cables, but it would be a hassle and the result wouldn't be neat.
So the question was then whether to go to more effort, expense, and possibly risk the warranty to get the full 3TB or to just use the SAS controller and get 2TiB (2.2TB) per disk. One factor we considered is the fact that the higher sector numbers typically give much slower access times due to being on shorter tracks (see my ZCAV results page for test results from past disks [2]). We decided that 2.2TB (2TiB) out of 3TB (2.7TiB) was adequate capacity and that losing some of the slow parts of the disk wasn't a big deal.
I've now setup a RAID-Z2 array on the disks, and ZFS reports 3.78TiB available capacity, which isn't a lot considering that we have 4*3TB disks in the array. But the old server had only 200G of storage, so it's a good improvement in capacity, performance, and RAID-Z2 should beat the hell out of RAID-6 for reliability.

Drill, baby, drill — microbial-style
|Could the oil energy needed to light up this drill
come directly from soil bacteria instead of the soil?
Image credit: Obakeneko; via Wikimedia Commons
By Jeffrey Perkel, DXS tech editor
It's no secret that America's petroleum addiction is a problem in need of a solution. "Drill, baby, drill" notwithstanding, this country eventually will have to find a way to survive without low-cost oil – or at least, find another way to make it.
|Ralstonia eutropha bacteria in culture
… in the microbe's natural state, when its source of essential nutrients such as nitrate or phosphate is restricted, "it will go into carbon-storage mode," [Brigham says,] essentially storing away food for later use when it senses that resources are limited.
"What it does is take whatever carbon is available, and stores it in the form of a polymer, which is similar in its properties to a lot of petroleum-based plastics," Brigham says. By knocking out a few genes, inserting a gene from another organism and tinkering with the expression of other genes, Brigham and his colleagues were able to redirect the microbe to make fuel instead of plastic.

- Description
The Native Village of Deering occupies a narrow strip of land where the Inmachuk River empties into Kotzebue Sound. Census 2010 counted 122 residents here in 44 households. You can see evidence of subsistence activities, and fish and seals provide a considerable portion of the local diet. The cliffs in the distance are a source of sea bird eggs. There is a native store in town where others foods from Outside are available.
Like other Northwest Arctic communities, Deering is quite isolated from the rest of the world. Some ladies in the village told me that there is a 26-mile long road that leads inland from town, but it does not connect Deering to any other communities. I heard that you can get to Nome from Deering over a rather rough trail, and that some of the more adventurous youths have managed the journey. Folks do cross Kotzebue Sound, using snowmobiles most of the year and boats in the summer. However, most people arrive here from Kotzebue on a Bering Air flight.
I was quite impressed by the serenity of this little community. There were building crews around town renovating some of the houses, hammering or using power tools as they added more efficient windows or an extra layer of insulation to older structures. There was the occasional sound of a boat motor, an ATV or a plane. But for the most part, there was enough quiet to enjoy the sound of birds as they nested on the tundra or flew gracefully over the sea.
The 27 images of this panorama were photographed with a Canon EOS 5 Mark II and stitched with Autopano Giga 2.
