The IT Architect of the Future
Oct 17 2019
12:00 pm
60 mins
Simon Ratcliffe, CIO Advisor and Mentor, IT Evangelist
The role of the architect has changed dramatically in the past few years and is headed for even more change as the landscape of possible technology options is only going to
increase. Faced with a list of options that is increasing almost daily across a highly
competitive landscape, many architectural decisions have become an exercise in avoiding error rather than exploring possibility.
Whilst an acceptance of failure is becoming the norm in smaller development faced activities, architects must make big decisions that can affect the entire operation of an organisation. This webinar explores some ideas for architectural best practice and mechanisms for reducing risk whilst empowering architects to unleash some of the exciting new options available to them.

Learning From Other Industries to Break the Rules of Transformation
Oct 16 2019
12:00 pm
60 mins
Simon Ratcliffe, CIO Advisor and Mentor, IT Evangelist
Digital Transformation is an over-used phrase and one that is often used to describe what is
essentially business transformation that is underpinned by technology. Does this mean that
these transformations are deeply vertical and need deep industry experience to be
successful? In this webinar we examine how organisations can learn from other industry
sectors and also from breaking the standard rules within their own industry.
In this webinar, listeners will be able to learn:
- How do we look across industries and learn from success in others?
- How do we escape from the 'me too' transformational activity and break away from trying to keep up and get in front?

Cost, Security and Risk in a Multi-Cloud Environment
Sep 12 2019
12:00 pm
60 mins
Simon Ratcliffe, CIO Advisor and Mentor, IT Evangelist
The majority of organisations today are running their IT estate across multiple platforms including private clouds, on-premise data centres, software as a service, and public clouds. Whilst this flexibility can drive significant business benefit, there are a number of key areas of operations and governance that require a different approach. Many organisations have suffered from cost management challenges despite the claims of many cloud providers that their platform will create savings and so we will examine options for effective cost management that actually work – and the pitfalls to avoid!
Cloud itself has a well-established security pedigree but managing security and risk across multiple clouds adds a layer of complexity that can lead to issues and so we will explore some of the key risks in such an environment and suggest how these can also be mitigated.

Kubernetes in the Cloud
Apr 17 2019
6:00 pm
75 mins
Matt Baldwin, the founder of Stackpoint Cloud and NetApp; Ingo Fuchs, Chief Technologist, Cloud and DevOps, NetApp
Kubernetes (k8s) is an open-source system for automating the deployment, scaling, and management of containerized applications. Kubernetes promises simplified management of cloud workloads at scale, whether on-premises, hybrid, or in a public cloud infrastructure, allowing effortless movement of workloads from cloud to cloud. By some reckonings, it is being deployed at a rate several times faster than virtualization.
In this presentation, we'll introduce Kubernetes and present use cases that make clear where and why you would want to use it in your IT environment. We'll also focus on the enterprise requirements of orchestration and containerization, and specifically on the storage aspects and best practices.
•What is Kubernetes? Why would you want to use it?
•How does Kubernetes help in a multi-cloud/private cloud environment?
•How does Kubernetes orchestrate & manage storage? Can Kubernetes use Docker?
•How do we provide persistence and data protection?
•Example use cases

Cloud Truth & WAN Consequences: Remake Your WAN for Zoom, AWS, and Office365
Feb 28 2019
4:00 pm
60 mins
John Burke, CIO and Principal Research Analyst, Nemertes Research
You need to rethink your WAN to survive the next 5 years. We can help show you how.
Think about it: half of your IT services come from the cloud, from folks such as Amazon Web Services, Google Cloud, IBM Cloud, Microsoft Azure and Office365, and Oracle Cloud. Mixing cloud and internal sources, you serve an increasingly scattered and mobile staff. IoT is turning the physical environment into both a provider and a consumer of IT services.
Is the WAN you built for Client/Server really going to serve?
No. IT needs to rethink its WAN and re-engineer the economics of wide-area networking.
Join Nemertes as we bring our WAN technology research study and freshly updated, one-of-a-kind cost and performance benchmarks to bear on the challenges of remaking your WAN to drive success in the cloud age. We'll discuss:
• SD-WAN and the real benefits it can deliver for performance and cost
• Other cloud-friendly network technologies such as direct-connect and WAN-Cloud Exchanges
• Up-to-date cost and provider performance data for MPLS and Internet services.

Why Composable Infrastructure?
Feb 13 2019
60 mins
Philip Kufeldt, Univ. of California, Santa Cruz; Mike Jochimsen, Kaminario; Alex McDonald, NetApp
Cloud data centers are by definition very dynamic. The need for infrastructure availability in the right place at the right time for the right use case is not as predictable, nor as static, as it has been in traditional data centers. These cloud data centers need to rapidly construct virtual pools of compute, network and storage based on the needs of particular customers or applications, then have those resources dynamically and automatically flex as needs change. To accomplish this, many in the industry espouse composable infrastructure capabilities, which rely on heterogeneous resources with specific capabilities which can be discovered, managed, and automatically provisioned and re-provisioned through data center orchestration tools. The primary benefit of composable infrastructure results in a smaller grained sets of resources that are independently scalable and can be brought together as required. In this webcast, SNIA experts will discuss:
•What prompted the development of composable infrastructure?
•What are the solutions?
•What is composable infrastructure?
•Enabling technologies (not just what's here, but what's needed…)
•Status of composable infrastructure standards/products
•What's on the horizon – 2 years? 5 Years
•What it all means

File vs. Block vs. Object Storage
Feb 5 2019
66 mins
Alex McDonald, Vice-Chair SNIA Europe and NetApp
When it comes to storage, a byte is a byte is a byte, isn't it? One of the enduring truths about simplicity is that scale makes everything hard, and with that comes complexity. And when we're not processing the data, how do we store it and access it?
In this webcast, we will compare three types of data access: file, block and object storage, and the access methods that support them. Each has its own set of use cases, and advantages and disadvantages. Each provides simple to sophisticated management of the data, and each makes different demands on storage devices and programming technologies.
Perhaps you're comfortable with block and file, but are interested in investigating the more recent class of object storage and access. Perhaps you're happy with your understanding of objects, but would really like to understand files a bit better, and what advantages or disadvantages they have compared to each other. Or perhaps you want to understand how file, block and object are implemented on the underlying storage systems – and how one can be made to look like the other, depending on how the storage is accessed. Join us as we discuss and debate:
Storage devices
•How different types of storage drive different management & access solutions
•Where everything is in fixed-size chunks
•SCSI and SCSI-based protocols, and how FC and iSCSI fit in
•When everything is a stream of bytes
•NFS and SMB
•When everything is a blob
•HTTP, key value and RESTful interfaces
•When files, blocks and objects collide

Hear a Live Friday Free At Noon Concert at 12noon ET from WXPN and NPR Music Broadcast Live Fridays from the stage this week World Cafe Live in Philadelphia
Buddy Miller & Jim Lauderdale play World Cafe Live in Philly on March 1, with an opening set from Max Gomez.Buddy Miller and Jim Lauderdale Releasing more than 30 combined albums between them before teaming up last year, Americana singer-songwriters Buddy Miller and Jim Lauderdale comprise one of the most venerable duos in popular music today.
Miller began making his own records in 1995. Since then, he has written or co-written songs for Brooks & Dunn, the Dixie Chicks and Lee Ann Womack, also playing alongside Lucinda Williams, Steve Earle, Emmylou Harris, Alison Krauss and Robert Plant. Most notably, though, he has collaborated several times with his wife Julie.
Jim Lauderdale has been making his own records since 1986 and has also written songs released by George Strait and Patty Loveless. As a collaborator with Ralph Stanley and Grateful Dead lyricist Robert Hunter, Lauderdale has always shown he can make beautiful music with others too.
And so Miller and Lauderdale, longtime friends and cohosts of the Buddy & Jim Show, paired together to release the critically acclaimed country duets record Buddy and Jim in November. The duo is now touring in support of their effort and will play XPN Free At Noon on Friday, February 22!
Buddy Miller's Website | Facebook
Jim Lauderdale's Website | Facebook
Max Gomez Immersed in the nature and art of Taos, the most northern of Mexican pueblos, young singer-songwriter Max Gomez has found inspiration in the spirituality that surrounds his home. A fan of the blues since he was little, Gomez listened to artists such as Lead Belly and Robert Johnson. He later turned his attention to traditional American folk music. As a result, his songs are an emotionally raw and spiritually calming fusion of the two genres. His debut album, Rule the World, successfully captures this fusion on tracks such as "Run From You," "Never Say Never," and "Ball and Chain." The album came out earlier this January.

Another opening day for R.J. Evans
R.J. Evans, a guard from Salem, is a first day of college basketball practice veteran.
For the fifth time in his playing career, Evans survived a grueling opening practice. His first one at UConn on Saturday was tougher than the previous four during his Holy Cross days.
"It went well, "Evans said after a nearly four hour workout. "This is my fifth first practice, so I'm kind of used to it. This is definitely one of the toughest if not the toughest that I've been through. Coach (Kevin) Ollie really pushed us today."
Ollie definitely set the tone in his first practice as UConn head coach. He took command and demanded perfection.
He expects 100 percent effort at all times.
"If you want to quit, walk on out the door," Ollie barked at one time.
Ollie also encouraged the Huskies and remained upbeat throughout practice.
Evans, a graduate student with one year of eligibility, already is warming up to Ollie's coaching style.
"The thing I like about Coach Ollie is he's demanding but he's encouraging," Evans said. "That's one thing that I'll preach to any recruit who is thinking about coming here. He'll never get down on you. No matter how bad you're playing, he's always going to find a way to encourage you.
"I appreciate that about Coach Ollie."
It's hard to tell where Evans fits into a crowded backcourt. He brings much-needed experience, leadership and toughness.
Evans and his fellow Huskies are certainly in for an interesting ride this season with Ollie at the helm.
Some other notes and quotes from Saturday's first practice:
-- At the end of practice, Ollie had a brief conversation with guard Ryan Boatright.
"He was just saying continue to be a leader," Boatright said. "Even if things aren't going your way, continue to be a leader because this team is going to feed off me."
-- The Huskies are trying something new this year. They're gathering in a circle around center court for a post-practice chat.
A sports psychologist met with the Huskies last month and recommended the team bonding ritual.
"It's for us to talk to each other and not allow anything to linger," junior Shabazz Napier said.
-- Freshman Omar Calhoun on his introduction to UConn basketball: "The first practice was intense. It was hard, long and strenuous. We just had to keep pushing ourselves. … It took a lot of focus to get through it, but we were able to fight and we stuck together."
-- Junior Tyler Olander on Ollie: "He's tough. He expects everything to be perfect, kind of like coach Calhoun. He just expects you to give 110 percent every play, every possession, no matter what we're doing, because he believes that's the only way you can get better is by out-working everybody else and doing more than you think you can."
-- Ollie places players in two categories.
"There's one that's going to be a stand up guy that I'm going to trust and is going to be in the game. The other person I can't trust and I'll tolerate him for a little while until I get somebody in there to take his spot."
-- Rebounding will be a major point of emphasis this season. Ollie wants everyone to hit the boards, from the point guard to the center.
The Huskies had a failing grade when it came to boxing out last season. They held a slim 37.5 to 34.9 rebounding edge.
"We didn't do it fundamentally," Ollie said about boxing out. "Anybody can look at the stats. I don't have to talk to you… … Whatever you want to call it, (either) we didn't have enough heart to go get the ball, or we didn't box out.
-- Check out the video of Ollie addressing the media after practice.

These two cars aren't really new to us, as we posted about one of them in early '09, but it seems the owner has decided to flush out at least a full half of his extensive collection of late model BMW's. Included in the upcoming RM Auction, to be held in San Diego on June 19th.
61884 was posted for sale here last year, a silver black '02, and now sold another one from his collection, 62120, black/black '03. This gave someone wanting either of those color combos quite a unique opportunity to snag a litterally brand new Z8.
61884, a silver/black 02 with just 112 miles sold for $110,000 + premium for a total of $121,000. Someone got a really great deal on that!
62120 is a black/black 03 with just 50 miles sold for $130,000 + premium for a total of $143,000.

Tulane requires a CSS Profile from each biological parent in cases of divorce or separation.
The Tulane code is 6832 for the College Scholarship Service (CSS) Profile Form (to be completed ONLY by full-time undergraduates seeking need-based Tulane gift aid).
Generally, each year's CSS Profile is available online for sixteen months, from October 1st through January. For example, we expect the 2018-19 CSS Profile to be available from 10/01/17 until 01/31/19, and the 2019-20 CSS Profile to be available 10/01/18 until 01/31/20.
Please note that Tulane's deadline for CSS Profile completion is months before the academic year commences: February 15 for those who have not attended Tulane previously and April 15 for students currently enrolled at Tulane. Those whose CSS Profile applications are completed after Tulane's deadline may be considered for the type of aid requiring Profile completion if the student is otherwise eligible and funds remain available; however, in any event, the CSS Profile application must be received prior to our aid processing deadline (which is four weeks before the end of the academic period for which aid is intended, or the student's last date of attendance, whichever comes first).

NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Lipscomb Bisons tennis coach Mario Hernandez is outnumbered, but he is not discouraged.
Two of his players are injured with at least one sidelined for the entire season. A transfer that might have added relief was ruled ineligible by the NCAA.
The Bisons will be hosting North Alabama Saturday night 5 p.m. at Richland Country Club's indoor facility on Granny White Pike. Sundaythey make the short trip to Vanderbilt for a 4:30 p.m. match at the Currey Tennis Center.
North Alabama, 1-0, is scheduled to play at Belmont Friday night. Vanderbilt is 4-1.
"North Alabama and Vanderbilt both are good teams," Hernandez said. "But we are more focused on taking care of what we do. We have to forget about everything and everyone else and just focus on what our team is doing and how we are imposing ourselves against our opponents."
Only five players will be able to play, one short of the six needed.
"It puts us in a little bit of a hole," Hernandez said. "We expected this for the most part and are prepared to deal with it.
"We've constantly talked about how everyone faces adversity. The important thing is how you deal with it."
Hernandez has been stressing to his remaining players the need to stand in the breach and form a strong wall of support.
"The mentality we have had is that because we are playing with one less man, everyone is going to have to step up and improve even more," Hernandez said. "Everyone has more responsibility to bear but that's only going to make us better. We are definitely not going to feel sorry for ourselves."
The Bisons opened the season against Marquette at Richland Jan. 13, a 5-2 loss. Stuart Tierney, at No. 2, and Rob Mitchell, playing at No. 3, each won their singles matches. The Bisons have not played a match since then.
"We have had almost three weeks of preparation since our last match and I feel that the level is definitely getting better," Hernandez said. "We have really been stressing the idea of how intense our practices are.
"That is the difference in my opinion. We want to practice at the intensity we would have in a championship match or a deciding match. If we do that, then the match becomes routine because we have already prepared ourselves at an equal or even greater intensity or pressure."

As he expected, the front fender appeared to reduce wind resistance. He used a telescoping fender to test the effect of length. I plot the result here: "N" corresponds to no fender, "S" for short, "M" for medium length, "L" for long, "XL" for extra-long, and "MF" for a mud-flap on an extra-long fender.
There appears to be an optimal length: the fender blocks the wind from entering the brake area, then going longer than that is counter-productive.
Jan dismisses the effect as relatively small. However, ignoring his "repeatability" tests to establish error bars, I'll plot the naked numbers of the difference in CdA from the fenders to the difference in CdA reported by Scott for "aero" mass-start bike frames relative to a "round-tube" frame, my guess the long-head-tubed Scott CR1. Scott's tests were with a dummy mounted on the bike. Jan's tests were with a rendered outline on a display against which is aligned an image of his body for repeatability when conducting the wind tunnel tests. I use the zero-yaw data from the Scott test since that is how the fender test was done.
Curiously, the short front fender seems to offer a greater advantage than the Cervelo and Felt, and not much less than the Scott Foil. Velo Orange fenders cost around $60. The Scott Foil frame is probably around $3500.

Influencers in the Public SectorBy John Jainschigg | Posted 2008-10-30 Print
From entrepreneurs and academics to CEOs and it Gurus, These influencers come from diverse backgrounds, but have one thing in common: they strive to use technology to improve the world.
Influencers in the Public Sector
Edward Markey
U.S. Representative
Serving in Congress since 1976, Edward Markey (D-Mass) is now chair of the Subcommittee on Telecommunications and the Internet, and he serves on other committees and subcommittees pertaining to technology, security and the environment. Markey is a defender of Net Neutrality, the principle that prevents Internet service providers from blocking or slowing down service based on its source, ownership or destination.
"Advanced high-speed broadband service is the indispensable infrastructure of the 21st century," Markey says. "Our goal going forward must be to regain our status as a world leader in expanding access to broadband. The benefits of higher speeds, lower prices and more choices for broadband services will be greater economic opportunity, job creation, higher worker productivity, access to health care and educational resources, promotion of innovation and global competitiveness."
Al Gore
Former Congressman, Senator and Vice President
Al Gore chaired the U.S. House Committee on Science and Technology and championed the use of high-speed networking for education and economic advancement. His contributions to the creation of the Internet are acknowledged by technology pioneers like Vint Cerf and Bob Kahn. Support for technology remained at the forefront of Gore's priorities during his two terms as vice president and his later presidential campaign. He now heads the climate change solutions group at venture firm Kleiner Perkins.
Elizabeth Hight
Defense Information Systems Agency
As the vice director of the Defense Information Systems Agency, Rear Admiral Elizabeth Hight is responsible for a worldwide organization that plans and provides global Net-centric solutions for the president and the military. Prior to assuming her current post in 2007, she was principal director of operations and deputy commander for the Joint Task Force Global Network Operations. There, Hight was responsible for providing command/control, communications and intelligence computing services to active military commands, and for directing operations and defense of the Global Information Grid.
Howard Schmidt
Former U.S. Cybersecurity Czar
Howard Schmidt headed the computer crime exploitation team at the FBI, and later became director of the Air Force Office of Special Investigations Computer Forensic Lab and Computer Crime and Information Warfare Division. He then served as Microsoft's chief security officer (CSO). In 2001, President Bush appointed Schmidt special advisor for Cyberspace Security for the White House and vice chairman of the President's Critical Infrastructure Protection Board. In 2003, he became chairman, until he retired in May of that year. After that, Schmidt became vice president and CSO for eBay. Currently, he is president of the Information Security Forum and a board member of (ISC)2.
Teri Takai
State of California
In 2003, Takai was appointed director of information technology for the state of Michigan. There, she led the governmentwide IT consolidation, which merged the state's information technology into one centralized department, saving about $100 million in the process. Her reputation and accomplishments drew the attention of Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger, who, in 2007, hired Takai as California's first statewide cabinet-level CIO.

For-profit colleges losing out to state schools charging less
For-profit colleges have also suffered damage to their reputations. Investigators have said the schools use high-pressure sales tactics to mislead applicants about costs and job placement, leaving them with government loans they can't repay.
Bloomberg News
Keri Trimble, 33, an employee at a utility call center, was shopping for an online college so she could take classes at night and on weekends.
Trimble rejected Apollo Group's University of Phoenix, the dominant player in the market for selling Internet degrees to working adults. Instead, she chose Arizona State University's program, which typically charges almost 30 percent less.
"The cost was outrageous," said Trimble, of Sacramento, Calif. She added, "I didn't think that graduating from the University of Phoenix would give me the respect that comes with a degree from a traditional four-year college."
Competition from state universities' expanding online programs is pummeling for-profit colleges, once among the fastest-growing U.S. industries. The companies, including the University of Phoenix and The Washington Post Co.'s Kaplan chain, are closing campuses as enrollment and stock prices plunge.
With outstanding student loans totaling $1 trillion, some potential customers are turning away from the schools out of concern about cost and quality.
It's a potent threat because publicly traded for-profit colleges drew 59 percent of their enrollment last year from online-only students, according to estimates from Deutsche Bank. At the University of Phoenix, the figure was 75 percent.
More than 80 percent of the U.S. population will have access to less expensive online programs from their own state universities by the end of next year, up from 62 percent this year, predicted Paul Ginocchio, an analyst at Deutsche Bank in San Francisco. Up to a third of those students would have gone to a for-profit college if the alternative didn't exist, he said.
Private universities are also invading the online arena. Earlier this month, a group including Duke, Vanderbilt and Brandeis universities, said it would offer online classes for credit. Harvard and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology offer courses free online, though they don't count for credit or toward degrees.
For-profit colleges have also suffered damage to their reputations. In the past two years, the schools, which can receive as much as 90 percent of their revenue from federal student grants and loans, have faced scrutiny from President Obama's administration, Congress and state and federal prosecutors.
Investigators have said the schools use high-pressure sales tactics to mislead applicants about costs and job placement, leaving them with government loans they can't repay.
For-profit college stocks fell after Republican presidential challenger Mitt Romney, who had called for less regulation of the industry, lost to Obama.
Phoenix-based Apollo Group, the largest U.S. for-profit college company, is down 64 percent this year, among the worst performers in the Standard & Poor's 500 index.
Twelve of the 13 for-profit college companies tracked by Bloomberg have suffered stock declines this year, with six down at least 50 percent. The exception: Grand Canyon Education, which operates a traditional campus in Phoenix with a Christian focus alongside its online program.
State universities' online programs offer cheaper degrees from better-known institutions. Arizona State charges $442 per credit hour for an Internet bachelor's degree, or about $11,000 a year including fees, according to the school. The University of Phoenix typically costs about $585 per credit hour, or about $15,000 a year.
Prospective students attracted by affordable tuition have boosted enrollment at the University of Florida's online program by 10 to 15 percent a year to 7,000 currently, said Andy McCollough, an associate provost. Florida residents pay $147.49 per credit hour, or $5,000 a year, including other fees.
At Western Governors University, with 37,000 students, enrollment is jumping at a 40 percent annual clip, according to Joan Mitchell a spokeswoman for the Salt Lake City-based nonprofit online college. It charges about $3,000 for a six-month term.
For-profit schools have revolutionized customer service, letting students call and sign up in as little as 48 hours, then attend convenient campuses or online programs, said Phil Regier, dean of Arizona State online, whose enrollment has climbed to 7,000 from 200 in August 2009. Now, traditional schools are starting to offer the same approach.
"It's not an infinite market," Regier said. "A lot of our students would have gone to a for-profit. I don't know why students would go to for-profits once we get as good at customer service. Their brands are not as good, and they tend to be more expensive."
Apollo says its programs often cost less than private, not-for-profit colleges as well as state universities' nonresident tuition. Last month, the University of Phoenix announced it would freeze tuition for all currently enrolled students and prospects who sign up by June.
"We are tremendously competitive," said Mark Brenner, an Apollo senior vice president.
Apollo excels at helping job-hunting students, Brenner said. The University of Phoenix has established relationships with 2,000 corporations, including Verizon Communications, Wal-Mart Stores and Adobe Systems.
Those ties haven't stopped the bleeding at Apollo. Enrollment at the University of Phoenix has plunged 30 percent to 328,400 students since August 2010. Apollo is shutting 115 locations, including 25 campuses, and eliminating 800 jobs over the next year.
In Washington, the University of Phoenix will keep its primary Western Washington campus in Tukwila, but phase out "learning centers" in Bellevue, Lynnwood and Tacoma, plus a student-resource center in Kennewick.
Career Education, a college chain based in Schaumburg, Ill., is closing 23 campuses and cutting 900 jobs. Earlier this month, Strayer Education said it won't pay its $1-a-share quarterly dividend in 2013.
In September, Kaplan said it stopped enrolling students at nine campuses and is folding four others into nearby locations. This month, The Washington Post Co. said it expects "to incur significant additional restructuring costs" in the fourth quarter and next year because of Kaplan.
The grim news is a far cry from 1995 through 2010, when enrollment at publicly traded for-profit companies rose about 14 percent a year, according to Peter Appert, an analyst at Piper Jaffray in San Francisco.
"In the old days, they would take anyone who was breathing," Appert said. "If they dropped out after a semester or two, so what? You've collected your money."
That approach sparked abuses, according to a July report by the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions, led by Sen. Tom Harkin, D-Iowa. The committee examined 30 education companies over two years.
The companies, which received $32 billion in federal financial aid in 2009-2010, are a poor investment of taxpayer money because they spend more on marketing than instruction, cost more than comparable programs elsewhere, have high dropout rates and account for almost half of all student-loan defaults, even though they enroll only one in 10 students.
The report found "overwhelming documentation of exorbitant tuition, aggressive student recruiting and abysmal student outcomes," Harkin said. For-profit colleges disputed many of the findings and said their students struggle because they tend to be working adults from lower-income families.
Now, as fewer students sign up at for-profit schools, many low-income and minority students may skip college altogether, undercutting a societal goal of "open access" to higher education, said Steve Gunderson, president of the Washington, D.C.-based Association of Private Sector Colleges and Universities, which represents for-profit colleges.
Both Apollo and Kaplan have instituted programs that let students try out courses before committing, to weed out those who won't complete them. At the University of Phoenix, about 20 percent choose not to attend after its free three-week orientation workshop, Apollo's Brenner said.
The company also introduced a financial-planning program this month to let students know how much they will pay monthly on their student loans after they graduate.
As students become more price-sensitive in a weak economy, "the competition has accelerated in higher education in a way that's very healthy for students," Brenner said.
Information from The Associated Press is included in this report.

Cherrie needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 71 designs submitted by 33 freelance designers.
Remember "Free Hugs"? Well, we want to give everyone the gift of a "Better Day". We are a start up company with a desire to help people globally have a "Better Day". We want to start a "movement"...help yourself and help others. We simply want to encourage people to act. We'll give them the ideas and tools needed to truly change their life from the inside out.
We have broad appeal. We want to reach the population of consciously aware individuals who truly want to make changes in their lives for the better and also make a difference in the lives of others. Everyone from 5 to 95 wants to have a better day. We will reach people through social media such as Twitter and Facebook. Target audience favors recycling, organics, alternative energy, free-range chickens, living green and looking on the bright side...they truly believe one person can make a difference.
Think cheerful, happy, sunshine, relax, peaceful, fun...
We'd like a logo design that incorporates a simple image that represents a "better day"...can be abstract. However, we'd like it to be as brandable as the apple is to Apple Computers. For example of simplicity see "bdm idea.jpg".
Check out 3466388-original.jpg. Incorporate a symbol to the left of the text symbol. Include the .com as part of the logo. Like the punch of the black background. Like the simplicity of the logo. Like the various shades of the same color.
We like shades of green. See logo.jpg which is the logo of the parent company, My TruMind.
Again, like the .com at the end of 3447846-original.gif...drives people to our website. We want people to know our brand as "BetterDayMovement.com" not "Better Day Movement".
Love the simplicity of fwdmovement.png. Simple logo to the left. Love the message underneath (could be .com). Maybe we could put "The" on the top and create a sunburst out of the letters (bright orange or yellow, perhaps)?
I like how the shadows of 619movement-logo-590x351.jpg depict movement.
Textured lettering of love movement.jpg is rather intriguing.
Would prefer a quirky, less formal font. Nothing too elegant or fancy. Something clear, simple and bold that stands out.

Archaeologists excavating a South African cave have recovered remains of the oldest known complex projectile weapons. The tiny stone blades, which were probably affixed to wood shafts for use as arrows, date to 71,000 years ago and represent a sophisticated technological tradition that endured for thousands of years. The discovery bears on an abiding question about when and how modern human cognition emerged.
Fossils show that humans who basically looked like us had evolved by 200,000 years ago. Yet based on the cultural stuff they left behind, it looked as though anatomically modern humans did not begin reliably thinking like us until little more than 40,000 years ago. The new finds, which come from a site called Pinnacle Point 5-6 (PP5-6), indicate otherwise.
Kyle S. Brown of the University of Cape Town and his colleagues argue that the tiny points they found, which the ancient people at PP5-6 made by carefully heating and shaping stone, are a proxy for complex cognition and that the 11,000-year duration of the tradition indicates it was transmitted verbally from generation to generation.
The findings, published online November 7, 2012, by Nature, add to mounting evidence that modern cognitive capacity evolved at the same time as modern anatomy, with various elements of modern behavior emerging gradually over the subsequent millennia. (Scientific American is part of Nature Publishing Group.) A competing hypothesis holds that modern human behavior arose far more recently as the result of a fortuitous genetic mutation.
Brown and his collaborators conclude their paper by noting that this projectile technology, which allows one to attack from a safe distance, would have given modern humans a significant edge during hunting and interpersonal conflict as they spread out of Africa into Europe and encountered the resident Neandertals equipped with handheld spears.

Beluga Whales, Delphinapterus leucas
« Database Home Animalia Chordata Mammalia Cetacea Monodontidae Delphinapterus leucas
Description & Behavior
Beluga whales, aka white whales, Delphinapterus leucas (Pallas, 1776), are incredibly fascinating small whales with a characteristic stocky frame, solid white color, and bulbous melon. The soft and flexible blubber around the head gives the beluga the ability to to change its facial expressions easily. A dorsal ridge, more prominent in males, replaces the dorsal fin found in other whale species. Adult males have flippers that curl upwards. In older individuals, the melon and lips become more pronounced and the skin, though muscular and supple, is quite rough. At birth, calves are gray in color; they lighten to a blue-tinged white around five years of age turning pure white as adults. Males measure between 4-5.5 m in length, with a body weight of between 907-1,361 kg; females are smaller (around 3-4.1 m in length and weighing 454-907 kg). The upper jaw holds nine pairs of teeth, the lower jaw, eight pairs.
Belugas are very gregarious, tending to travel in groups of between 2-15 individuals, with very tight mother/calf associations. These groups are either all cows/calves, or all bulls, the latter of which can extend into larger units of around 500 individuals. Amassed groups of thousands have also been reported, particularly during mating season. This fun-loving species is usually quiet at the surface, but they can become quite noisy and playful in their shallow summer grounds displaying lobtailing and flipper-slapping behaviors.
Before the summer molt, the skin takes on a yellow tinge. When the skin begins to molt, belugas rub themselves along the gravel or sand in seabed. They are often called the "canary of the sea" because of their extended repertoire of vocalizations. They communicate through whistles, "belches" and squeaks. They have an advanced echolocation system and produce broad-band pulses in a narrow beam aimed from their melon.
World Range & Habitat
An exclusively northern hemisphere species, the beluga's range is primarily the Arctic ocean and its adjoining seas (including the Bering Sea and the Sea of Okhotsk) inhabiting fjords, estuaries, and shallow waters. Belugas seek out shallow coastal waters in summer and waters near the ice edge in winter. Except for a small population in the Gulf of St Lawrence, Canada, this species is exclusively an Arctic or subarctic species.
Feeding Behavior (Ecology)
Belugas eat a wide variety of prey, more diverse than most cetaceans. They consume fish species such as herring, cod, and salmon, as well as invertebrates such as octopus, squid, crab, and snails.
Echolocation is thought to aid in the search for food. Feeding dives last from 3-5 minutes, although one individual was observed underwater for 20 minutes diving to a depth of 647 m. Due to the flexibility of the lips—a characteristic only shared by the Irrawaddy dolphin—it is thought that belugas use a "sucking" motion to draw prey into the mouth.
Orca (killer whales) and polar bears prey on belugas, especially the calves.
Life History
One calf per birth is the rule for belugas. Females give birth every 2-3 years and gestation lasts about one year. Calves weigh about 70 kg at birth. When born, young are a dark brown or black; they become more blue in color between one and two years, then turn a light yellow until they reach sexual maturity when the white color typical of this species is achieved. Young are nursed for about 1.5-2 years.
Longevity: Approximately 35 years.
Estimated Current Population: >150,000 animals.
Conservation Status & Comments
Beluga whale populations have been overhunted to the point where they have been wiped out in some regions. Recovery is hindered by human activities such as river diversion or harbor construction and beluga fertility in some areas is low due to chemical pollution.
Belugas have been hunted for centuries for a variety of products. More recently, it has been harvested by the commercial fishing industry. Beluga meat was sold for human and domestic animal consumption, the blubber was used to make soap, lubricants, and margarine, and the fat of the head was used to make high quality lubricant. Bones were ground up and used as fertilizer, and the skin was tanned to make boots and laces. Presently, the annual kill rate is probably less than 3,000.
The beluga population under the most threat is that of the Gulf of St. Lawrence, Canada, which now numbers between 500-700 individuals. Oil exploration, hydroelectric plants, and shipping accidents are causing considerable disturbance, but they are not the main cause. The whales living in the Gulf are prone to chemical contamination—this industrial area uses the Gulf for the dumping of chemicals (such as DDT) and effluent. For some reason, these pollutants affect belugas more than other species of cetacean (probably due to diet variation), getting into their bloodstream and body tissue, and passing from mother to calf during gestation, often with the calf carrying more pollutant than either of its parents. Deformed calves have been recorded—some bent in an 'U' shape and unable to swim due to a poorly-developed spine. It is disturbing that, due to the high concentrations of contamination, belugas in the Gulf of St. Lawrence population are treated as toxic waste when they die.
Beluga whales, Delphinapterus leucas, are listed as Near Threatened on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species with the Cook Inlet subpopulation listed as Critically Endangered C2a(ii):
NEAR THREATENED (NT) - A taxon is Near Threatened when it has been evaluated against the criteria but does not qualify for Critically Endangered, Endangered or Vulnerable now, but is close to qualifying for or is likely to qualify for a threatened category in the near future.
CRITICALLY ENDANGERED (CR) - A taxon is Critically Endangered when the best available evidence indicates that it meets any of the criteria A to E for Critically Endangered (see Section V), and it is therefore considered to be facing an extremely high risk of extinction in the wild.

1994 / 1995
4 x (120 cm x 120 cm)
Fabre's relation to the world of insects borders with awe. Although insects and their civilisation can be the epitome of intelligence and beauty, they can also be carriers of infections and calamities or even bring death. The artist's fascination with the world of insects has led him to the strongest symbol of today, to the medium of the digital era, the computer.

It hasn't escaped my notice that I seem to post rather a lot about chocolate and cakes, and often both at the same time. I don't think that's a bad thing. World peace could probably be achieved if only there was enough chocolate and cake to go around, but that's another discussion entirely.
So, because I firmly believe in not fixing something if it's working perfectly well, I hereby bring you yet another chocolate and cake post. It will add inches to your waistline, up your cholesterol levels, stoke up your blood sugar and, most of all, do wonders for your soul.
This particular creation of chocolate joy is all the more delectable for its idiot-proof simplicity and use of store cupboard ingredients. You don't need a kilo of chocolate or tons of butter to make it, and nor do you need any fancy gadgets or trickery. You just mix everything together, slap it in the tin, and wait for it to emerge from the oven some time later. Even I can do that.
I first came across this recipe a few years ago, when moneysavingexpert.com was a relative novelty (and when Twitter had barely even got going), and I was drawn to the site for its gathering together of food-loving wallet-watchers. As Frugal Cook would surely agree, some extraordinarily good recipes can spring from straitened times.
You can either read the original post, recipe, and commentary here, or read on for my ever-so-slightly edited and tweaked version.
Chocolate yogurt cake
5 fl oz vegetable oil
5 fl oz natural yoghurt
4 level tbsp golden syrup
6 oz caster sugar
3 eggs
8 oz self-raising flour
3 rounded tbsp cocoa
½ level tsp bicarbonate of soda
½ level tsp salt
1. Heat your oven to 325°F/160°C/gas mark 3. Grease and line an 8" round cake tin.
2. Place oil, yoghurt, syrup, caster sugar and eggs in a bowl; beat with a wooden spoon until well mixed. Sift flour, cocoa, bicarbonate of soda and salt into bowl and mix well.
3. Pour mixture into prepared tin and bake in centre of oven for 1hr 30 mins - 1hr 40 mins. Test with the fingers. If cooked, the cake should spring back and have begun to shrink away from the side of the tin.
4. Leave cake to cool in tin, then turn out and remove paper. EAT! (when cool, obviously... Patience is a virtue, remember.)
To store: wrap in foil; keep 2 to 3 days for full flavour (a cruel tease, I know), then up to 1 week in a tin.
If you want to create some additional interest, throw some ground cardamom and/or orange or lime zest into the mix. There's no reason, either, why you shouldn't smother the whole thing with ganache. But it really is perfectly good on its own, or else served with a dollop of crème fraiche.

By the mid-1800s, many American towns and cities had installed gas pipelines to illuminate their streets and buildings. This gas plant in South Deerfield, Massachusetts, was located on Elm Street, near the Hotel Warren. On the evening of March 8, 1908, workers and the president of the company hurried to the gas house to investigate a reported malfunction. Tragically, the lighted lantern they carried ignited escaping gas as soon they opened the door to the gas house. All three men died in the resulting explosion. The adjacent building, which housed a pool parlor and a barber shop, as well as a private residence, sustained heavy damage. By the turn of the 20th century, electricity replaced gas as a light source in larger towns and cities. People in rural areas continued to depend on candles and kerosene to light their homes.

rhapline needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 72 designs submitted by 25 freelance designers.
Need a logo to set the theme for the core brand of Rhapline, an online music company for the PC, Mac and iPhone. Logo must be suitable such that it can be scaled up to larger version with more detail and a smaller, version could be derived from it and be recognizable as Rhapline.
Rhapline: http://www.rhapline.com
Rhapline is the first mainstream technology that transforms ordinary CDs and tracks into interactive music. Rhapline promises to be one of the best music experiences available. While music is the company's initial target, the technology will also work for other kinds of media such as games, etc. The logo should reflect a very simple, hip, recognizable design that can be instantly recognized as Rhapline. View our initial web site in development at http://www.rhapline.com for a screenshot of the product.
The brand experience should convey style, simplicity, new music experience, professional, trust, applicable recommendations. The initial audience for the product is 12 - 35 year olds. File format should be Illustrator or something that can be opened/manipulated in Illustrator.
Extravagant, complicated logo with too much detail or one that we cannot easily derive a smaller version.

West "A" and Southwest 17th Storm Drain Improvements
October 2013
The roadway ditch along the north side of West "A" Street near Southwest 17th Street has been eroding due to storm runoff for several years. Recurring maintenance has been required to protect the integrity of West "A" Street. The purpose of the project is to construct a permanent fix to stabilize the existing roadway ditch.
This project will construct a new storm drain system along the north side of West "A" Street west and east of Southwest 17th Street. New storm drain pipe will be constructed to collect storm runoff from the area north and west of the intersection. The storm drain pipe and manholes will be installed near the north edge of West "A" Street. The storm drain system will drain into an existing 42-inch pipe located approximately 200 feet east of the intersection of West "A" Street and Southwest 17th Street. The existing culverts beneath the driveways in the project area and Southwest 17th Street will be removed. Existing ditches between drives will be partially filled to create shallow ditches and inlet pipes will be installed to collect the runoff between driveways. The combination of shallow ditches and additional pipe will reduce erosion. The bottom of each ditch section will be re-graded to direct water to the pipe entrances.
Project Location Map (242 K)
HR Bookstrom Construction of Lincoln, Nebraska has been awarded the contract for completion of this work. The contractor has indicated work will begin October 21, 2013, and it is expected the project will take three to four weeks to complete. There will be some inconvenience to residents and businesses in this area as the work will require the closure of West "A" Street to through traffic. The contractor will allow residents access to Southwest 17th Street and their drives as the work progresses, but the removal of culverts and drive approaches will require short term closure for access at these locations. The contractor will make a concerted effort to restore access as quickly as possible.
