This Is The Real Reason You Should Be Scared Of Motorcycling
Snakes can jump.
Snakes can jump.
A mother was more than three-times the legal limit when she drunkenly launched her crossover 14 feet high over a roundabout while overtaking a truck—with her toddler in the car. Footage of the wreck was captured on the truck's dashcam.
Video footage of a high-speed road-raging altercation on the highway shows one car brake-check another way above the speed limit, sending a woman's car flipping down the highway four times.
Watching this, you start to wonder if you ever really understood anything about physics at all. There's so many times when watching this where you're sure that truck's going to end up on its side. And yet it doesn't. Is it skill? Dumb luck? An eerie ability to bend the laws of nature? A box full of anti-gravity chili?…
A 24 year-old allegedly lost control of his speeding Porsche on a motorway in Greece yesterday and crashed into a mother and her 3 year-old daughter sitting in a parked car. Four people, including two in the Porsche, were killed in the crash and subsequent explosion.
As an attentive driver in America, there are certain sets of headlights you learn to look twice at when you see them in your rear-view. Crown Vics, Chargers, Caprices and these days, you better keep the Ford Explorer in mind, too.
Generally, it's a good rule of thumb to tone down your normal driving style when your parents are in the car, just in the interest of family harmony and overall sanity. Jesse doesn't seem to give a shit about those things, which is why he's grounded.
Dashcam footage captured a Toyota Hilux run a red light, get T-boned and dramatically roll over, all hilariously to the tune of "It Wasn't Me," the 2000 hit from Shaggy.
Many voters believed third-party candidate Giant Meteor 2016 was not like other lying, selfish presidential candidates. But today they have to be ashamed of their wasted votes, as Meteor 2016 failed its one campaign promise to end the world on a visit to the Midwest on Monday.
Every decent living mammal on the planet knows that if you hit a car with your car because of some mistake you made, you pull over. I think this basic idea is carved into the Hammurabi Stele, even. That's not what happened at all here, as a terrible Toyota Camry driver hits a Subaru BRZ, tries to run away, and learns…
Dashcam footage recorded in Singapore witnessed a mythological siren of the streets, as a woman likely having a lovely evening riding on top of a moving SUV embraces the breeze and whatever possible drugs she may be on.
It's nice to think of cops as the appointed "dads" of a community. Or like friendly characters in the first act of a Disney movie. This clip from Officer Martin Folczyk's dashcam illustrates, well, exactly that.
It's no secret that we take the physicality of driving for granted. We get into 3500-pound metal boxes and launch them down ribbons of tar at a mile-a-minute without a thought. That's why seeing a video like this is so alarming: it's a reminder of what's really going on, and the destructive potential of it all.…
Generally, I'm okay with lending my car out to people I trust. I sort of rely on other people being willing to do this for me as well when I shoot videos of weird and interesting cars. But there has to be some level of trust and respect. Those are two things that seem to have been gone when a Volkswagen Golf R owner…
Being alone on the city streets at night can be terrifying with nothing going on, but it's especially horrifying when you find yourself being attacked and chased by a road-raging lunatic.
Vantrue's popular dash cams are back on sale, and this time around, you get to choose from two different models.
I'm not exactly sure what either party was trying to accomplish in this dashcam video of a traffic cop desperately clinging to the front of a car as it speeds away. I'd imagine it's not the best idea to bring a cop along when trying to evade the law, though.
Ever wonder what people are saying about you behind your back? Of course you have; you're human. One handy way to find out is to take a car in for a trade-in appraisal, and leave your dashcam inside! Then you might be as lucky as this guy who brought his BMW to be appraised for a trade-in on a new Ford Focus RS. …
This video isn't exactly exciting, but it has a certain weird draw to it. I don't think either participant comes off very well, and there's a certain uncomfortable tension throughout. So why do I keep watching it?
The Audi R8 is good and nice, but it is a supercar. And sometimes supercars attract people who don't know how to drive supercars (or really at all), and sometimes they cause accidents and flee the scene. Sometimes they're such an idiot jamoke, they get caught on a dashcam driving like an idiot jamoke.

England 182 (44.1 overs)
Jacques Kallis lead the batting charge as South Africa cruised to England's shabby 182 total in the quarter-final of the ICC Knockout tournament in Nairobi this afternoon.
The South African added cut down England's bowlers, scoring a solid 78 runs to bring his side home with a massive 10.5 overs to spare.
Kallis was ably supported by Boetha Dippenaar, who contributed 65 to a lethal partnership of 132.
Darren Gough had given England brief hope by removing Hall with the score on 19. But the damage had already been done by a loose batting performance in the morning. Only Graeme Hick, with a controlled innings of 65 from 68 balls and two catches - one of them a stunning effort in the gully - remotely threatened to disrupt a professional performance by the defending champions.
But Hick could not tick on to the century which England needed from him, while South Africa seemed unruffled by the loss of both openers inside 11 overs as they chased their small victory target.
Nasser Hussain had talked of 250 being a par score on this difficult to defend Ghymkana Ground. Although a secondhand pitch did not appear so batsmanfriendly as some of the earlier surfaces, his team's total looked 50 runs short of seriously testing the South Africans.
England had no option but to attack with the ball after being bundled out in fewer than 45 overs. Rewards came when Andrew Hall snicked Darren Gough to slip and Gary Kirsten sliced a cut against Craig White.
Hick held both of those opportunities, the first of them above his head and the second, quite sensationally after diving left to take a spectacular one-hander off the fiercest of edges.
But England's aggressive approach meant there were many gaps in the field for South Africa to exploit. With Jacques Kallis ominously in control, they had reached a comfortable 127 for two after 30 overs and looked destined for a semi-final date with India on Friday.
England were struggling from the time Shaun Pollock and Roger Telemarchus restricted them to just five runs from eight new-ball overs this morning. Then Allan Donald and Kallis followed that lead quite perfectly to keep Hussain's men under the cosh.
Marcus Trescothick, Alec Stewart, Graham Thorpe, Andrew Flintoff and even the well-set Hick all managed to pick-out fielders in the deep with accuracy. South Africa do not spurn simple opportunities like those and, predictably enough, they also engineered a couple of run outs through direct hits from Jonty Rhodes and Nicky Boje.
But while England's batting was undeniably disappointing - they lost their last six wickets for 28 runs in seven overs - it would be churlish not to give high praise to their opponent's bowling.
Indeed, it was only while Hick and Flintoff were adding 65 for the fifth wicket - mainly against spinner Boje and all-rounder Lance Klusener - that England prospered.
Flintoff, though, swung the returning Pollock straight to deep mid-wicket, Hick soon followed him back to the pavilion when hoisting Kallis to deep square-leg and the unfortunate Paul Grayson fell in an instant.
Grayson, who only arrived here on Saturday after being summoned to fill-in for calf-strain victim Ashley Giles, edged his first - and possibly last - delivery as an international batsman to slip.
The theory today was that Hussain's side would hold a slight advantage through having played a preliminary round match here against Bangladesh, whereas South Africa received a bye into the quarter-finals.
Certainly Hussain had no hesitation in choosing to bat this morning. But any hopes that there opponents would take time to settle soon evaporated. Pollock, promoted to captain post-Cronje, set a tremendous example during an opening over that was spoiled only a fraction by one marginal off-side wide.
But, if anything, Telemarchus found an even tighter line and length. Given the new ball ahead of Donald, Telemarchus was soon touching 90mph.Reuse content

I came to Cairns for a conference at the Cairns Convention Centre in August 2012. Booked Il Centro Apartments because of its proximity to the conference venue. Have stayed a total of 10 nights as I stayed on as a tourist after the event. The location is fantastic, close to everything but not in the middle of the noisy town and bars etc. I had a room facing the street front, but never heard any traffic noise at all. I am a light sleeper and I did not hear any noise from the street or next door.
The apartment itself has a good size sitting room, separate bedroom, bathroom, fully equipped kitchen (enough for simple breakfast and the occasional instant noodle), washing machine and clothes dryer. There is a large Woolworths supermarket a few blocks away. The room was serviced daily. Just so convenient. Staff (Russell and Warren) were friendly and helpful.
There are lots of good restaurants nearby. I probably have put on a few kilos from all the great food. All in all, I love Il Centro. Highly recommend this place. The bed was very comfortable too, which is very important.

New Orleans Sinking Fast
We read about Venice sinking into the sea, but New Orleans is sinking right here at home. Most of North America is built on bedrock, but New Orleans is built on Mississippi River silt, which is settling, due to gravity. This settling has been going on for a long time, but lately the surface has been dropping fast. This is due to the levees, which were built to stop the Mississippi from flooding. However, the floods used to deposit new layers of soil on the land. Without this process, the city has become 6 to 20 inches lower in the past 20 years.
Houses are tipping and cracking. Streets are cracking too, leading to ruptured water mains and sewer lines. Some yards have become marshes. In Leeville, 60 miles southwest of New Orleans, the land has sunk 14 inches over the past 20 years. In the old cemetery, brick mausoleums that were once on land are now under water. The government is having a hard time deciding what to do about it. "Say your neighborhood's 8 feet below sea level," says geologist Shea Penland. "Are you going to [let] the government…cover your house in mud to raise the level?"

Going by a tweet from Superannuation, Microsoft has registered domains for four yet-to-be-announced games, including a brand new Fable game. The tweet lists a series of "Whois" domain records for the following sites;
- Dancecentral2.org
- Kinectsportsseason2.org
- Fablethejourney.org
- Kinectfunlabs.org
Those domains point to four games with varying levels of previous confirmation. Kotaku reported in March that sequels to Kinect Sports and Dance Central were likely among Microsoft's E3 Kinect lineup. The name Kinect Fun Labs has also been circulating as a likely new Kinect title.

Mistakes Not to Make When Implementing an ITAM/SAM Program – Addressing Governance
[tweetthis twitter_handles="@patriciaadams @LANDESK" display_mode="button_link"]Mistakes Not to Make When Implementing an ITAM/SAM Program[/tweetthis]
When it comes to IT and software asset management (ITAM/SAM), or any new IT project, it is critical to ensure that the program is successful the first time it is rolled out.
Without early successes, it is difficult to maintain ongoing business unit buy-in and senior management endorsement. Support from the wider teams may also be difficult to maintain leading to processes that aren't followed and tools with inaccurate data.
Therefore, finding the low-hanging fruit that can yield savings quickly is imperative. These low-hanging, hard-dollar savings opportunities are mostly process and policy driven, and should be on every asset manager's tactical, short-term, 18-month roadmap. The longer-term, strategic projects that require time-based data can also yield concrete savings but will require automation and integrations to make them viable.
To ensure project success, learning the mistakes that others have made when implementing ITAM/SAM can go a long way toward ensuring you don't make the same mistakes that led to program failure. With that in mind, we have identified mistakes within the four key areas that define a successful ITAM/SAM program:
- Governance
- Process
- Policy
- Automation
There is a natural progression in these four areas because automation is not going to contain accurate data unless process and policy are being adhered to.
If governance isn't addressed early on, the whole program could be based on quicksand that shifts every time a new business or IT project comes up. I call it the "follow the shiny thing" strategy. When C-level executive priorities pivot, ITAM/SAM strategy should support the new direction, but it must still focus on the fundamentals that make a corporate-wide program effective while being agile.
Governance is foundational to ensure ITAM/SAM program success
Having said all of that, let me begin by stating that governance is foundational to ensure ITAM/SAM program success. Without senior managers, at the Chief Executive, VP and Director level in finance and/or IT operations, and key stakeholders in intersecting IT domains, endorsing and supporting ongoing program investment, most programs are unlikely to be in place beyond 18 months.
Alternately, the program might be realigned to a different reporting structure in the hopes that a different senior executive can have a positive impact. When programs are realigned to a different reporting structure they can quickly lose momentum while the executive learns about what wasn't working.
To prevent this from happening, it is critical to document the urgent problems and the "wish list" problems that should be solved, and segmenting them into tactical and strategic on the ITAM/SAM roadmap. These problems should correlate to the projects that the CIO, CEO, CTO, CFO, CISO are focused on. If digital business, security, new ERP system, cloud applications, and/or mobile are priorities for the coming year, ensure that the ITAM/SAM roadmap focuses on how it can assist with delivery of those goals. Senior managers like to see how a shared service, such as ITAM/SAM, is going to enable the big picture projects as well.
Following this suggestion to start with governance will help make your ITAM/SAM programs effective and support will be ongoing, not just at the beginning. Having executive sponsorship early on is critical to maintain buy-in as changes and disruptions occur to the business. There won't be a question about what type of value ITAM/SAM is returning because it is part of the larger team delivering value at every step.
How Implementing an ITAM/SAM Program Is Like Playing Pokémon GO
Implementing an effective ITAM/SAM program isn't any more difficult than trying to locate and catch a Snorlax or evolve into a Vileplume in Pokémon GO, though many organizations feel that it is too complex, too difficult and too resource intensive.
Additionally, many organizations experience only one or two software license audits a year, they don't feel it justifies the cost of an ITAM/SAM tool or building a disciplined program.
Investing in an ITAM/SAM tool is similar to working out at a Pokémon gym.
If one of the goals of Pokémon is to own a gym that will lead to an increase in your stash of gold coins, then you need a group of team members with different strengths (e.g., psychic, fire, water) to help you defend it.
Similarly, the more work you do around ITAM/SAM process, policy, and governance, the more effective your program will be. Having a diverse team with strengths in contracts, licensing, capacity and demand management, and data analytics will help your organization easily defend against threats to the IT budget in the form of an audit, asset lifecycle or security.
Improve the combat power of your ITAM/SAM team.
Taking over a Pokémon gym by defeating another team isn't easy if that team has many defenders with high levels of combat power.
To improve the combat power of your ITAM/SAM team, you must ensure that your tools are robust and can help the broader IT team, rather than staying siloed in ITAM/SAM. Integrations into other key data sources are essential in order to reduce the amount of manual data entry necessary to ensure the data is current.
Training your team members provides them with the necessary skills to solve problems. Having the skillset necessary to move from a reactive to a proactive position is essential. Metrics that focus on tactical and strategic problems will identify opportunities for savings. An example of a tactical metric is asset inventory accuracy and a strategic metric is capex vs. opex asset spending.
An effective ITAM/SAM program/tool is like owning a Pokémon gym.
Overbuying software licenses is a hedge against an audit, but an effective ITAM/SAM program doesn't need hedges. It's akin to "owning" a Pokémon gym and having your fellow team members acting as defenders. Everyone on the team benefits because they get more PokéCoins every 21 hours.
In the ITAM/SAM world, the "defenders" come in many forms, but the most useful ones are accurate data reports about what is being deployed, purchased, and actively used in your environment. And the PokéCoins you accrue are the facts and details needed to respond to an audit request. This frees up time that can be spent on higher-level, strategic tasks that add value to the business.
Earning PokéCoins is like saving money on your IT budget.
The PokéCoins earned can be redeemed for other purchases later, just as the savings gained by optimizing deployed and purchased software can benefit the IT budget. These hard-dollar savings from risk and cost avoidance can then be allocated later to new technology investments, thereby benefiting other IT domains or supporting the business that has a constrained budget.
Increasing your ITAM/SAM prestige by strengthening the resilience of your program means you can plan for an audit without wasting time or overestimating your budget.
The physical health benefits of catching Pokémon are similar to implementing a healthy ITAM/SAM program.
Similar to the health benefits achieved by walking or running to get a lucky egg to hatch in Pokémon, ITAM/SAM programs help you control application proliferation and manage lifecycles to prevent the build up of technical debt. Usually, the more time that is required to hatch an egg, the more rare and powerful the Pokémon is likely to be.
While monitoring legacy applications and reducing the number of overlapping applications takes time over the long-term, the benefits to your program are also greater.
Standardizing applications, consolidating vendors, reducing maintenance on unused applications, measure vendor performance, and renegotiating contract clauses when the vendor repackages your applications are all opportunities to improve the health of your ITAM/SAM program and evolve to higher levels of maturity. These are not short-term tasks but require investment to achieve the benefits.
Having an ITAM/SAM program isn't the latest cool bandwagon to jump on, but rather a discipline that enables the business to be more agile and flexible. Evolving your ITAM/SAM program to include IT service management, security, cloud, and IoT, is akin to building up your Pokédex.
MEGABYTE Act Recommendations for CIOs (Part 2 of 2)
In MEGABYTE Act Recommendations for CIOs (Part 1 of 2) of this blog series, we looked at the first three of six requirements that the MEGABYTE Act of 2016 recently put into place. We then gave our recommendations for how CIOs can achieve compliance by next year.
Here, we'll continue with requirements four, five, and six, and give our recommendations for each one.
4. Provide training relevant to software license management
Software license management as a discipline has been growing in importance in private sector organizations for many years, and there are a number of organizations that offer training on processes, policies, metrics, business management and security requirements to fulfill demand.
The most well-known software asset management certification course is offered by the International Association of IT Asset Managers (IAITAM).
Be aware that there is a well-documented ITAM/SAM skills shortage in the marketplace, so plan for extended timeframes if recruiting from outside the agency.
Recommendation: CIOs should evaluate staff to determine if existing employees have the skillsets needed to fulfill on this new law.
This will require people who understand not only tools, but also procurement/sourcing, contracts, project and portfolio management, vendor management, performance scorecards, and enterprise architecture. All of these areas will provide feedback into software savings opportunities and lifecycle planning.
5. Establish goals and objectives for the agency software license management program
Goals and objectives that include critical success factors (CSF) and key performance indicators (KPI) are essential to designing an effective software license management program.
For example, a KPI would be the ability to respond to a software vendor audit in 30 days. A CSF would be the ability to provide a monthly or quarterly report that demonstrates compliance with the legislation.
Metrics that support these goals and objectives will disclose whether or not they are successful or failing. Time- and cost-based metrics will uncover opportunities for continuous improvement, but these need to be aligned with agency goals.
Recommendation: CIOs should evaluate existing metrics and the processes they support to determine if they are capable of supporting effective software license management. If the existing metrics aren't comprehensive or are non-existent, a baseline inventory of the environment will be needed to create a starting point for the metrics.
6. Consider the software license management lifecycle phases
These phases include requisition, reception, deployment and maintenance, retirement, and disposal. They help with implementing effective decision making, as well as incorporating existing standards, processes, and metrics.
With the key stages of the asset lifecycle outlined in the legislation, building best practice processes, policies and metrics around each of these stages will be the priority.
The longest part of the lifecycle is the deployment and maintenance stage, so that is where the most change will be happening to the software.
Software patches, upgrades, and new releases will happen over the usable life of the software, which could be anywhere from three, five, seven, ten years or longer for ERP or highly specialized applications.
Processes and metrics need to reflect the unique characteristics of each agency and not just the generic templates leveraged from the private sector. Budgets, mission, and use of outside contractors and staffing are just a few areas that will require agency-specific process design.
LANDESK offers an ITAM/SAM attainment workshop to help customers assess their current process, policy, and governance maturity. The workshop also uncovers where the holes exist in their current program and the areas where they are currently doing well.
Recommendation: CIOs should develop processes and metrics that reflect the unique characteristics of their agency and not rely on generic templates leveraged from the private sector.
With other mandates already in place around purchasing and disposal, CIOs should place focus on the process of managing the software license entitlement and ensure that they are in compliance with software contracts.
In summary
The potential savings from an effective ITAM/SAM program, in a government agency that already has some best practices in place, could still be up to 20 percent of the management costs associated with the various assets in the first year of implementation. I've often see ITAM/SAM programs generate enough savings to be self-funded and have funds freed up to be allocated back to technology investment.
With the proper processes, policies, and people in place, CIOs should have no problem reporting their cost savings and risk avoidance from improved software license management practices on a regular basis.
Side note: While the MEGABYTE legislation does not apply to state and local government, there are 28 representatives from states that co-sponsored this legislation. CIOs of these states (and others) should consider how they would approach getting a handle on their software licenses and what kinds of savings those might represent to their organizations.

MEGABYTE Act Recommendations for CIOs (Part 1 of 2)
In light of the recent news that the MEGABYTE Act of 2016 was signed into law, we wanted to outline the law's new requirements for CIO agencies, as well as provide our own recommendations for CIOs to achieve compliance by 2017.
In this post, we'll take a look at the first three of six requirements.
1. Establish a comprehensive inventory
This includes 80 percent of software license spending and enterprise licenses in the agency. It is done by identifying and collecting information about software license agreements using automated discovery and inventory tools.
There is no reason why a CIO couldn't achieve a discovery rate of 97-100 percent of all enterprise and infrastructure software installed on all endpoints and servers, including custom-developed software that is attached to the network.
Outperforming the 80 percent requirement to discover all software is not impossible.
Understanding what is running in your environment is the first step to not only managing but also ensuring that the applications meet security guidelines. Using either an agent installed on the endpoint or an agentless discovery tool that scans by IP range, it is possible to discover and build a definitive knowledge base of all known, approved applications. The data from these tools can then maintain a software asset catalog or a whitelist of approved applications.
Ideally, this discovery tool should use an agent so that it can monitor software usage. Software usage without an agent is only a point-in-time snapshot of what is running on the endpoint when the scan runs, and not daily usage monitoring. Usage monitoring on server software is not recommended because it may lead to network performance overload.
Recommendation: CIOs should ensure that they have an agent-based discovery tool that can discover all device types–mobile, workstation and server–that can also monitor software usage.
2. Regularly track and maintain software licenses
This will assist the agency with implementing decisions throughout the software license management lifecycle.
With constant monitoring of the software license lifecycle, decisions about when to adopt new versions or upgrade operating systems are much easier to make.
Knowing the TCO and the costs associated with lifecycle decisions will provide the visibility needed to assess and model a decision on factors that go beyond purchase price.
Tracking and maintaining the software lifecycle can also directly solve a problem that has plagued the government agencies–legacy applications that cost a lot to maintain when vendor support is no longer available.
We've seen legacy operating systems that reached end-of-life a decade ago, still being used even though there is no valid business need for it. IT transformation efforts are often bogged down because the costs to update outdated applications is often prohibitive, even for the government.
Recommendation: CIOs should begin by getting a baseline report of all installed software and its associated lifecycle. If old versions of applications are discovered and newer instances are available, determine whether an upgrade should occur and if it is covered under maintenance.
3. Analyze software usage and other data to make cost-effective decisions
Most organizations monitor software application usage on a quarterly basis to detect which applications a user has opened and closed.
If a user hasn't launched an application within the past 90 days, there is a good chance that they don't need the application, unless it is an application that is only utilized during specific projects or year-end timeframes.
If software is not being fully utilized, it can be reclaimed from the endpoint and redeployed to fulfill another user's request for that same application.
If there isn't demand for that application and there are a large number of unused licenses, the agency should consider renegotiating that contract and discontinue maintenance on those applications.
In addition, effective software usage monitoring could potentially uncover that an enterprise agreement is not a cost-effective licensing alternative because employees are not utilizing what is installed on their endpoints.
On the server side, it might indicate that there are expensive applications with overlapping functionality that are only being partially used and the least used ones could be discontinued. In the "other data" category, a history of furloughs or staff layoffs and retirement could be used when forecasting software demand and server capacity requirements.
Recommendation: CIOs should evaluate their existing discovery tools and if it has software usage capabilities, ensure that is implemented.
In many cases, inventory planners may not be aware of the functionality or may not have it fully deployed. Knowing the level of detail (e.g., app open/close or keystroke activity) that is needed for software usage monitoring is imperative.
It's Official: New MEGABYTE Act Becomes Law and It's Going to Save Money
On July 29, 2016, the MEGABYTE Act of 2016 was signed into law.
Last Friday, Public Law No: 114-210 m, also known as the Making Electronic Government Accountable By Yielding Tangible Efficiencies Act of 2016 or the MEGABYTE Act of 2016, was officially signed into law.
This new legislation directly affects all U.S. government agencies and follows on earlier legislation that has gone into effect over the past two to three years.
Why the MEGABYTE Act Is Different
Although complementary, the MEGABYTE Act differs from previous legislations such as The Federal Information Technology Acquisition Reform Act (FITARA), the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2015 (NDAA FY 2015), and the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Guidelines.
While FITARA and NDAA FY2 015 focus on IT issues related to staffing, coordinated purchasing, IT hardware inventory, and other areas, the MEGABYTE Act lays out what agencies are expected to document and report.
This documentation and reporting deals specifically with IT software license savings that can be achieved with better visibility and efficiencies.
The full MEGABYTE Act of 2016 text can be found here.
Sponsored by the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform and the U.S. Senate Committee on Homeland Security & Governmental Affairs, the MEGABYTE law requires that government CIOs "of each executive agency must report to the OMB, beginning in the first fiscal year after this Act's enactment and in each of the following five fiscal years, on the savings from improved software license management."
The specific requirements that are laid out for agency CIOs are great steps to getting a handle on what software is installed within the agency.
MEGABYTE Act Cost Savings
In my 21 years' experience as a Gartner Research Director advising public and private sector on IT and software asset management (SAM) programs, I've found that an organization without any best practices in place could yield savings of up to 30 percent in cost avoidance and savings in the first year.
Savings will decline in subsequent years as the environment is tightly managed, but the increased visibility will continue to reap savings in other IT domains.
However, OMB and GAO already have best practices in place. They have centrally negotiated contracts and pricing—not to mention a culture that adheres to policies—which will be a huge advantage as agencies begin to move into compliance with this law.
In my professional opinion, I would expect the government could save anywhere from three to five percent by monitoring the installation and usage of software, and up to 20 percent by implementing a complete ITAM/SAM program.
When you consider that OMB reported that government agencies spent $9 billion in 2015 on new software licenses, the savings from software usage monitoring and reallocation of software could be significantly more than $450 million in the first year of this five-year legislation.

What is IT Asset Management?
After working in the IT industry for over 20 years, I'm still surprised when I come across very loose interpretations that claim to define IT asset management. To be fair, the term asset management has different meanings depending upon the audience. If I was on Wall Street, or worked in financial services, the term asset applies to stocks, bonds, real estate and other types of financial assets. When speaking to an audience that is focused on tracking all of the assets a corporation owns, they would think of it in terms of enterprise asset management. This covers the real estate, buildings, fleet, machinery, power plants, planes, basically all of the enterprise assets that are capitalized and on the balance sheet. When it comes to IT assets, we are specifically referring to those assets that enable the IT side of the business to run. In some cases, these technology assets might not be controlled by IT because it is the rare company today that doesn't have software and hardware that is supporting the development of a product or helping their business to run more efficiently.
Once we narrow the definition down to IT-only assets, there is still confusion. Let me begin by differentiating ITAM from discovery and inventory tools. Discovery and inventory tools are used to scan the network looking for IP addresses. After one is found, it will run a scan of all installed software. If the tool uses an agent, the agent will be pre-installed on the device and a scan will be scheduled to run a specified schedule.
What is an ITAM database?
An ITAM database has three components to it – physical, financial and contractual. The physical info is collected using the discovery and inventory sources to accept data those shows what is deployed. It will also provide visibility into all IT assets that might be in a stockroom, but not yet deployed or maybe scheduled for retirement. This stockroom info is typically collected using manual processes, bar code readers or RFID systems if they are installed.
The second component of ITAM is the financial data. This data is often collected from a purchasing system or from a purchase order. It indicates purchase order #, vendor name, quantity, make and model, purchase price, depreciation, cost center, and other financial attributes that an organization might need visibility into. Tracking financial attributes about an asset is useful to understand total cost of ownership, return on investment and assign costs to projects and IT business services. It also helps an organization understand technical debt associated legacy applications, for example on the mainframe, and enable better decision making about end of life for an asset.
The third component of ITAM is the contract data. This data is often collected from the reseller directly from the vendor/supplier or from a contract management system if one is in place. It will include the information from the final negotiated version of the contract, not the iterations during negotiation. Details such as version number, license entitlement, license type, vendor SKU, training days, service levels, maintenance and other important contract facts. If it is a cloud or Software as a Service purchase, the details will include quantity, license type, device count, purchase price, whether you are bringing your own software to the cloud instance, contract timeframe to name a few.
Software and hardware asset management
Data from these sources is consolidated into a database which becomes the information hub. Regardless of whether the data is related to software, hardware or services associated with that equipment it is stored centrally. Software asset management and hardware asset management is a subset of ITAM. Without visibility into the hardware, it becomes impossible to ensure software is installed in compliance with the license agreement. Similarly, without insight into contract SLAs and integration into IT service management tools, that provides incident and problem management info, it is difficult to do effective vendor and performance management.
As with most things involving technology, definitions, interpretations and the ways we think about something will evolve over time. When artificial intelligence takes over ITAM, I'm sure the definition will evolve once again.
What Goes Into Creating Hardware Asset Management Metrics?
For the sake of this discussion, I'm going to refer to the Wikipedia definition of a performance metric.
Performance metrics measure an organization's activities and performance. It should support a range of stakeholder needs from customers, shareholders to employees. While, traditionally, many metrics are finance based, inwardly focusing on the performance of the organization, metrics may also focus on the performance against customer requirements and value.
Without metrics that reflect what is happening in the environment, it is difficult to assess where there may be problems or where everything is functioning seamlessly. As a result, IT asset management programs will put in place basic hardware asset management metrics that track both spare parts/stockroom inventory and deployed hardware.
How to build agility into your ITAM programs to respond to economic downturns
Since August 2015, the news headlines have been dominated by the U.S. elections, refugee crisis, dropping oil prices, fluctuating government lending rates in Japan and US, and coverage of the global slowdown that is crossing geographies and industries. China has been leading the doom-and-gloom financial forecasts based on economic outlooks for 2016.
Integrating Your IT Asset Management and IT Service Management Programs
When IT is designed to operate in domains, gaining visibility across the infrastructure is virtually impossible. There are separate teams, tools, and objectives that limit information and data sharing across the network, database, server, data center, client and other domains. However, when visibility into all of the infrastructure components that comprise business services cross those domains, the benefits to the organization are huge, especially in the area of change-impact analysis.

Clarke lends his support to the 'Amend the Bill' campaign
Thursday, June 27th, 2013
Alliance South Down Representative Councillor Patrick Clarke has given his support to the 'Amend the Bill' campaign which is lobbying against clauses in the Planning Bill which will give extra weight to economic development over environmental protection or social well-being in planning applications.
Speaking to Newry Times, Councillor Clarke said, "I am supporting the 'Amend the Bill' campaign. If these clauses are kept in the Planning Bill then economic development issues will have extra weight in our planning laws over environmental or social well-being concerns.
"This could result in planning applications not in the best interests of communities and the environment being approved. There must be a balance between these issues in our planning system. It is my belief that these clauses would upset that equilibrium.
"With nearly 5,000 people supporting their campaign, it is clear that there is a lot of concern amongst the public about this legislation. I would encourage anybody who wishes to see the protection of the environment or their community's social well-being, to get involved in the 'Amend the Bill' campaign.
Clarke added, "I very much hope that with lobbying from this campaign, that there will be a successful outcome to the Planning Bill not having these extra clauses on economic development over environmental protection or social well-being in planning applications."

Rep. Jeff Denham (R-Calif.) caused a stir when he advocated abolishing the General Services Administration. But he managed to unite a wide array of GSA defenders in the process.
The agency's public image has suffered since it was revealed that its Public Buildings Service had spent more than $800,000 on a conference in Las Vegas that featured lavish receptions, a luxury hotel and some apparently blatant violations of contracting rules.
But Denham might have defused some of that anger when he said the agency should be dismantled — and then revealed that he doesn't really understand all that GSA does.
As reported by Federal Computer Week's Matthew Weigelt, Denham made his proposal at the Coalition for Government Procurement's Spring Conference in April. But many in the audience noticed that his criticisms were almost exclusively about the Public Buildings Service and the spending abuses highlighted in a report by the agency's inspector general. Denham didn't appear to know much about GSA's other component: the Federal Acquisition Service.
When a member of the audience asked about that, Denham said he didn't have enough information to comment on FAS.
In the next couple of days, Denham appeared on Fox News and CNBC defending his position and criticizing GSA. On Fox Business, host Stuart Varney played into the anti-government sentiment.
"There's obviously a culture of corruption in this one agency, but how many other agencies are doing this?" Denham said.
"Surely, this is a mind-set of people who work for the government," Varney said. "I do believe that that mind-set has gotten worse, but it is common throughout government. Would you agree with that?"
Denham agreed.
Federal procurement experts, however, disputed Denham's position in a follow-up story by Weigelt.
"I think that Rep. Denham was caught by surprise when it was pointed out that GSA consists of more than the Public Buildings Service," said Larry Allen, president of Allen Federal Business Partners.
And an FCW reader, commenting anonymously, said Denham might be over-reacting.
"A slew of laws in the Federal Acquisition Regulation are there due to the private sector either overcharging or stealing from the taxpayers," the commenter wrote. "Privatizing everything is not necessarily a better way of dealing with what is essentially a bad apple taking advantage of streamlining from past administrations."

U.S. Cyber Command should be elevated to a full combatant command as soon as possible, the head of Strategic Command told Congress, but it cannot be separated from the NSA until it has its own cyber platform.
The real problem is that Rep. Jeff Denham is mostly right. We do have a serious problem with upper management Feds wasting money on conferences and other items that do not accomplish anything meaningful relative to the amount spent. Way too Feds are fiscally irresponsible when it comes to taxpayer money. I have seen many expensive projects being touted by Feds as how great they are but with a payback no sane person would ever put their own money into.
I guess the only thing worse than BIG Government is BIGGER IGNORANCE.

Love and Lost: Chapter Eight (Finally!)
A Pokémon fic made by A. Pikachu
Author's notes: I am so, so sorry for the almost one-year delay! I was just working on soooooo many stuff and I hope you read some of them!
I thank all of you, supporters, readers, reviewers etc. Here's the chapter you've all been waiting for!!!!!!
Ash grinned to himself, feeling all happy for some kind of reason as he trudged down the stairs to his car. He got the keys from his pocket and opened the door, stepped inside and jammed the key into the keyhole, rearing the engine up. He readjusted his sunglasses as he moved his car out of the parking lot, and drove away to his home with his mother, Delia Ketchum.
As his hands gripped the wheel, he thought about the things that happened. It was just…too…too sudden for him. Things just happened a month or two ago…he shouldn't have gotten back together with Misty. He should've thought about it more…thought about it deeply and not just kiss her right then and there and declare that everything was all right! God, how could he be so stupid?
He groaned in confusion as he ran a hand through his spiky locks, trying to keep focus on the road. A few minutes later he was out of the Cerulean City vicinity, driving quietly down the expressway. How could he have been so blind? So stupid? How could he jump into sudden conclusions?!
He shook his head, remembering what he himself said a few days back."She's just using me…"
"Yeah…I'd cancel it right away. She's just using me again, I'm sure of it." Ash murmured to himself, continuing to drive down the road. "I'm not gonna let this happen again. I shouldn't have been THAT stupid."
Fingers clamped on the wheel as he steered it towards the toll gate. He paid the toll fee and continued to drive past houses in Pallet City. He murmured things to himself, cursing himself on how stupid he can be. He immediately parked his car in his driveway, ready to pull out his hair.
Wait a minute…
How would Erika react to all this?!
(The next day)
The doorbell rang throughout the house, making Ash run down the stairs and open the door.
"Ash?!" Erika asked, dropping her luggage on his front porch. "Ash, where were you?"
His brown-black eyes softened at the sight of the twenty-year-old woman. Her soft, ebony hair…her emerald eyes…her pale, creamy skin…her soft voice…her entrancing smile…
It's been you all along…
"I've been calling your home for four hours yesterday! Your mom always said you weren't home when I called! How come? Did something happen when I was gone?" Erika asked worriedly, her bright green eyes shimmering in worry. Ash smiled, making Erika blush, and caressed her cheek.
"How come you're so worried about me?" Ash asked softly, making Erika blush redder.
"O-of c-course I'm worried about you Ash…I'm your fr—?" Erika stuttered out, pushing a lock of ebony-black hair behind her ear. Ash beat her to it, cupping her face with a warm hand.
"All along…all along, it was you…how can I be so stupid, Erika?" Ash muttered to himself, drawing the girl closer to him. Erika made no move to resist, but her blush was turning redder and redder by the moment.
The gentle breeze blew by them, sending a few tendrils of her black hair flying with the wind, ruffling his spiky, chocolate-brown hair. Erika voluntarily closed her eyes, feeling Ash's mint-smelling warm breath upon her face, anticipating the arrival of his smooth, soft lips upon hers.
Their noses touched, and a second later their lips was about to as well. But…
"ASHY-DEAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" two distinguished voices screamed at the same time, knocking Ash and Erika out of their 'moment'. Lara and Melody came later with the red-haired Misty, all faces twisted up because of their rage.
"Ashy-dear, you love me!"
"No, he loves me!"
"He kissed me earlier! There's no way he'd love you all!"
Ash and Erika only stood there as an immense catfight started to ensue. Ash, running a hand through his black-brown hair, sighed and got ready to call the three's attention. He removed his glasses and re-adjusted his polo.
All eyes were on Ash, who just screamed.
"I'm really flattered and all," Ash started, looking frustrated at first. "But this HAS got to stop. There's nothing you can do to stop me, because I LOVE HER."
Lips trembled as the four waited for a more exact answer.
"I love her because in this short time, she has been with me all along."
Eyes shifted from one to another.
"She stood up for me when I was hurt, depressed and down. None of you three did that to me. None of you supported me when I was heartbroken. I mean no offense, but I would want to make this clear."
All anticipated the answer. It was as if nature responded and kept itself silent, and nothing could be heard but Ash's deep, but smooth voice.
"I love her with all my life."
Ash turned to the woman beside him. He smiled an earnest grin and cupped her cheek again with his hand.
"I love you, Erika."
Author's notes: Short and cliff-hanger-y. I'm so sorry about this, but this is completely finished. Thanks for all of you who supported me through this fic, especially Daniel Rodriguez for urging me on. Without you, this chapter would never have been made. Finally, after a whole year, Love and Lost is finished! Thanks you guys, and please read other of my fics! Thanks a bunch!
All those interested in X, Yami no Matsuei or Kingdom Hearts, please review my fic!

Communicable Disease Control
Do you think you might have the flu?
Flu on Call™, a toll-free helpline providing information and medical advice related to flu, is now available in Milwaukee County. Those in Milwaukee County who are experiencing flu symptoms, caring for someone who is ill, or who have questions related to flu vaccine or flu-related concerns are encouraged to dial the Flu on Call™ hotline at 1-855-435-8722.
The hotline will be staffed Monday through Saturday from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. during January & February 2016. Callers to the hotline will receive support from CDC trained information specialists and medical experts.
Flu on Call™ is a CDC-led initiative to establish a national network of telephone triage lines to be used during a severe influenza pandemic. To ensure that this system is ready to use during a future emergency, Flu on Call™ is being tested as part of the seasonal flu response in Milwaukee County.
The goals of Flu on Call™ include:
Provide callers with accurate information about influenza (flu); and
Ensure that people who may be ill with flu-like symptoms (especially those who are at higher risk for complications from influenza) are seen at the most appropriate site of care.
For more information about this demonstration project visit www.milwaukee.gov/fluoncall.http://city.milwaukee.gov/health/fluoncall#
Wisconsin State Law requires the reporting of communicable diseases to the local Health Department. Communicable disease can be reported by individuals, laboratories, and health care professionals. The law requires that public health nurses provide surveillance and investigation to prevent and control the spread of disease. Some reportable diseases include: hepatitis, food and waterborne outbreaks, meningitis, pertussis (whooping cough), Lyme disease, tuberculosis, and sexually transmitted infections.

** Instructions for Installing Motor Yourself **
*** Click Here For the Installation Video !! *** (thanks Fernando!)
To change out the motor yourself, do the following :
A. Drill off the 2 rivet heads holding the cable "L" bracket onto the actuator case and remove the cable "L" bracket. The actual rivets themselves stay in place, you are only machining off the rivet heads enough to get the L Bracket off. Some have just used a dremel tool with grinding bit to remove rivet head. Be careful not to damage the surrounding actuator structure. ** Users Note ** Some have drilled the small pilot hole into the rivet BEFORE machining off the rivet head. This can help to ensure the rivet doesnt spin while drilling the pilot hole, since the rivet head is still there to hold it in place. We machine the head of rivet off 1st, but you could also machine pilot hole 1st, either way is acceptable.
B. Put actuator in the locked positon (as if door was shut) and remove the torx screws around the perimeter of the case. This step is important because it moves the internal mechanism out of the way and allows for easier removal and installation of the case halves.
C. Remove the top of the case (the motor will come with it). Unplug motor from top case.
D. (Skip this step if buying motor with pinion gear preinstalled). Use a small gear puller (like the Walkera W010 Gear Pinion Puller) to remove the brass pinion gear from the old motor. A puller for 2mm shaft works well, these are readily available on Amazon.com. You can also place the old motor in a vice, and use a small pair of needle nose pliers to grab the back of the gear while tapping with a small hammer to push the gear off the shaft. Do not damage the brass gear as it is reused. Press old gear onto new motor shaft using vice or arbor press.
E. Place the new motor/gear back into the actuator and ensure it meshes with the mating spur gear. Ensure all metal filings are removed from the inside of the case. Please note : our motors marked "CW" go in the drivers side actuators and "CCW" go in the passenger side actuators. It is the same motor front to back, the only difference is side - passenger side is CCW while drivers side is CW.
F. Reinstall top half of actuator case.
G. Reinstall perimiter torx screws. Do not over-torque them, just snug them up firmly.
H. Reattach cable "L" bracket. This can be done via drilling/tapping the remaining rivet shank and installing small screws/washers (we use #6-32 screws with flat washers and loctite). Or you can spot weld the bracket back onto the rivet shank. Some others have used #8-32 screws as this provides a slightly larger tap. Please do not use cheap taps here, the rivet is high strength steel so a high quality tap is recommended. If you own a 4 door, you will be doing this 4 times so invest in a good tap to prevent breaking the tap in the rivet. Tap SLOW using back/forth method until the threads are sufficicently deep, 1/4-1/2" is plenty. Use loctite on the small screws to prevent the L Bracket from becoming dislodged later. As a final suggestion on this step - some have just drilled a shallow hole into the rivet shank and used a self tapping metal screw to bite into the hole. This works as well, and saves you the trouble of tapping a hole into the rivet shank.
*** After the install ***
Please do not reinstall the interior door panel until you have successfully operated the mechanism several dozen times to ensure all was put back together correctly. We recommend installing the repaired actuator, lowering the window, then closing the door. Verify both the interior and exterior door release handles function properly. Then, start the engine, and ensure the vehicle recognizes the door is shut (doesn't keep the dome light on, or chiming). Operate the power locks a dozen or so times, the lock should lock and unlock rapidly with a forceful "snap" as it moves (the way it did when it was new). Only then should you finalize installation by reinstalling the door panel.

The door lock actuator was a great thing to find. I had a door lock stop working and happened to find this randomly and am glad I did. I work on my cars all the time so this was a really easy fix that was about 15% the cost of the complete OEM assembly.
Posted by William on 25th Mar 2017
Saw video on how to fix locks on my truck so I took a chance and ordered two for the drivers side to try. Did both and decided to order passenger side ones. Only received one in the mail, so sent email right away and explained the situation. They said one would be sent out next morning. Now I have both and fixed all my doors and they work better than ever before. I would recommend them to anyone that have problems with their door locks.
Posted by Unknown on 14th Mar 2017
Take your time and use good self tapping screws not cheap ones they can break. Works great.
Posted by Kermith on 9th Mar 2017
Both the actuators in my '08 GMC Sierra were out, and they are not cheap to replace. I ordered the two repair motors from Gruvenparts and they were promptly delivered. I carefully reviewed the detailed and nicely done YouTube video on how to complete the repair, and I got the job done. My power door locks work better than ever, and I couldn't be happier. I am NOT a highly skilled mechanic, but with patience and the basic tools, this a repair that can be done at home.
Posted by Eric on 1st Mar 2017
I have 3 bad motors in my truck. I bought 1 to try, the hardest part of the installation is drilling out the rivets. Once I found a sharp drill bit the rest of the installation was very simple. it took me about 45 minutes to do it. it works perfectly. I will be ordering 2 more for the rear doors. the video was very helpful. thank you. I would highly recommend.
Posted by Jim B. on 26th Feb 2017
I installed 3 on my '09 Sierra Crew Cab. No problems. Saved hundreds over new actuators. After grinding the head off the rivet with a Dremel, I drilled the rivet with a 1/8 drill and used self-tapping screws to re-install the L-bracket.
Get yourself a couple of good drill bits. Watch the video first.
Posted by Unknown on 22nd Feb 2017
I changed the door lock motor as described in the video. This gave me the excuse to putter around in the garage and get away from the old girl for awhile. It went smoothly and had the added bonus of saving $300.00. Everything is working great so far....... I wanted to purchase a North American car. When I took the door lock apart I noticed the motor inside was made in China. No wonder all my door locks were screwing up. This is a great way to save money and recycle a part rather than throwing it away
Posted by Fred Anthony on 20th Feb 2017
Replaced my 2008 Silverado passenger door lock motor with Gruven parts motor. No issues, works great. Disassembly was way harder than in video. Took about two hours to get it apart, but went back together in a 1/2 hour. I don't think I could have done it without problems without the video. Very good deal. Thankyou!
Posted by 2WheelPig on 18th Jan 2017
I ordered the motor with the gear pre-installed. It was shipped quickly, arrived on time, and was the right part. The motor fit exactly how it should, and the video was very helpful. Will be using this site again if (when) the other motors go out.
Posted by Unknown on 17th Jan 2017
Manually closing the passenger door was driving me crazy. This is an awesome way to fix the door lock mechanism. The instructional video helps a lot. The parts looks great . Very easy to install.
Thank you
