Everything Fried Rice
Here's a little something I whipped up for dinner last night. I was browsing my bookmarks on del.icio.us and felt inspired by this fried rice recipe from Hooked On Heat. I had every intention of following it, but as I started to rummage through my fridge and freezer, finding a left over chicken breast here, a handful of shrimp there, I decided to just let go and create.
Don't be scared by the long ingredients list. And by all means, feel free to substitute, omit and add as you see fit. This is more of a sketch than an actual recipe. But the results were very good, and I happen to be very pleased with the photo, too. (Always a bonus!) And I liked having a balance of color - green beans, yellow sweetcorn, orange carrot, pink shrimp...
Everything Fried Rice
Serves 2-3.
1/2 cup jasmine rice
1 cup water
1 chicken breast, uncooked
handful of shrimp, peeled and cooked (mine were frozen)
100 g haricot verts (frozen is fine)
3 tbsp sweetcorn (frozen is fine
1 onion
1 large carrot
3 cloves of garlic
1 egg
powdered chilli
powdered ginger
powdered coriander
runny honey
soy sauce
black pepper
Start by rinsing the rice, then boiling it in the water. (Don't forget to add a bit of salt.) Poach the chicken breast (just bring water to a boil, add the chicken, let cook slowly for 10-15 minutes. Cut to check doneness.) and cut into small pieces. Finely dice the onion, carrot and garlic. Crack the egg into a bowl, and whisk it around a bit so the yolk breaks.
Heat a large frying pan with a bit of oil. Fry the carrot and the onion. Add chicken and garlic. Season with chilli, coriander and ginger. Add the haricot verts and the corn. Make some room in the pan for the egg, and fry it while stirring so it breaks up into little pieces. Add the rice, and stir well to combine. Add the shrimp. Season with soy sauce, a little bit of honey and lots of black pepper.
Serve with sweet chilli sauce.

I think if you check some Asian cookbooks you'll find that "Fried Rice" is made by frying the rice first. Once it is fried in the oil, stock or water is added & the rice cooks covered on a low heat for 15 minutes. While waiting, prepare veges & whatever you want to add. Then add to rice, stir & cover again until everything is heated thru & then serve.

Elin - tack :)
Pene, actually most of my books seem to start with cooked rice. I guess this is a great dish for using up leftovers - except I didn't have any leftover rice, so I started from scratch :) I'll try the other way sometime too, I'm sure it's more original.

Åh, fried rice är ju så gott :) Du verkar ha hittat en jättefin kombination. :)

I meant to say that the pink background in your photo gives your photo a real Asian flavour. I like frying the rice first because you only need to use one frypan (as long as it has a lid) or a wok. Therefore less cleaning up after!

Pene, thank you! It's a new favorite of mine. :) And yeah, cleaning up was not so fun with this dish - it would have been a lot easier had I already had rice and chicken, though.
Judy, Karro thank you :)

I'm from Asian and fried rice is one of our fave dish. I like eating it during breakfast with a hot black coffee.. yummy!
Pene, I never heard that method before. Usually, we use cooked rice to make this dish (exactly like Anne did).
Anne, leftovers will make the fried rice tastier. If not, the taste will be a bit different. I'm no sure why. Try cooking this dish with a leftovers if u hv time =]

For some reason the HELP/PICASA program isn't working correctly to post pictures. I don't get it. I keep receiving an error message "UI failed to initialize, if there are not other copies running reinstall." I try removing the program, reinstalling and still get the fail to initialize error message.
Hope to figure it out. Any suggestions please let me know!

Inside the Crystal Lake Health Food Store, manager Dave Childress helps customers find multivitamin supplements.
Doctors can prescribe the supplements for people who may have nutritional gaps in their diets. But recent studies published by the Annals of Internal Medicine journal said multivitamins don't provide as much protection for aging brains in men or help heart attack survivors.
Millions of Americans spend billions of dollars on vitamin combinations, presumably to boost their health and bolster their diets. But while people who don't eat enough of certain nutrients may be urged to get them in pill form, the government doesn't recommend routine vitamin supplementation as a way to prevent chronic diseases.
The recent studies showed people who took vitamins fared no better on memory or other cognitive tests, and vitamins had no effect on the risk for heart disease.
Childress, a certified nutritionist, said a few studies should not be the final word when it comes to multivitamins. He said there needs to be hundreds of studies done before saying multivitamins are not useful.
"To take one study out as the be all, end all is just disingenuous," Childress said.
He said there were flaws in one study in who was included in the final numbers and the benchmarks people who used multivitamins had to meet.
Childress added the amount of nutrients people get from their diets is low, and people are mineral deficient. Childress agreed that people need to eat well.
"I think a person has to look at their diets and eat nutrient-dense food," Childress said. "We eat a lot of processed carbohydrates ... that are nutrient-poor food."
Tiffanie Young is a registered dietitian and diabetes educator for the Centegra Health System.
She said sometimes people need to take vitamin supplements, especially if they have restrictive diets, such as being vegetarian or vegan.
People who eat less than 1,500 calories a day, people who are age 50 and older and don't absorb nutrients as well, or people with food allergies might need supplements.
Also someone who is healing from a surgery and has greater nutritional needs might be a candidate for vitamin supplements, Young said.
A woman who's pregnant would take a regimen of multivitamins to help provide iron and folic acid to help with cell division, Young said.
Young also emphasized the need for a well-balanced diet with lots of fruits and vegetables, whole grains, healthy fat and low-fat dairy for the average healthy person.
Different vitamins have their own functions.
Vitamin B helps facilitate using energy correctly.
Vitamin A is good for skin and eyes. Vitamin D helps with bone strength and absorbing calcium.
But it is possible for people to take too many vitamin supplements.
If people take too many water-soluble vitamins they may be excreted out through urine, Young said.
However, taking too much vitamin D, which people may take to make up for not getting enough sunlight, can lead to higher calcium levels.
Young said that could lead to kidney problems, nausea and vomiting.
Dr. Robert Malecki, a Crystal Lake-based family practice physician with Advocate Medical Group, said the main thing people should concentrate on is having a properly balanced diet, especially having the right amount of fruits and vegetables.
Malecki added that multivitamin supplements can be useful to cover gaps in people's diets, but people shouldn't use multivitamins as an excuse not to eat properly.
If people are picky about what they eat, they may become deficient of certain vitamins, such as someone who is vegetarian, Malecki said.
"For picky eaters, we're trying to have them eat properly," Malecki said.

Now a venerable 30 years old, the show has been reimagined. But not the iconic chandelier - that still comes crashing to the ground.
Diehard fans of "The Phantom of the Opera" can rest easy. While the North American tour of the Andrew Lloyd Webber musical – which opens a three-week run at the Boston Opera House on June 26 – does boast new scenic design, choreography and staging, the show's signature chandelier still comes crashing down, as it has on stages worldwide since 1986.
"The chandelier is not the whole show, of course, but it is still very much part of the Phantom experience," promises Julia Udine, who plays Christine Daaé, the young soprano ardently pursued by the musical's titular masked man who lurks menacingly in the catacombs beneath the Paris Opera House.
"The new chandelier is beautiful. And, thanks to the technology available today, the things it does are really great."
Based on the Gaston Leroux novel of the same name, "Phantom" was first developed for the stage by Webber and producer Cameron Mackintosh 30 years ago. With lavish staging and under the direction of Hal Prince, "Phantom" has become the most successful musical of all time. In addition to London and New York, productions also continue in Hungary, Germany, Japan and Korea.
The "newly reimagined" North American tour is being directed by Laurence Connor, with new choreography by Scott Ambler and set design by Paul Brown.
"Our production has a whole new creative team led by director Laurence Connor, who asked each of us to approach the show like it is being done for the first time," Udine said. "We all knew that it was already iconic, of course, but Laurence never put that pressure on our shoulders. I think in his mind, he wants this production to be more truthful and simpler in a way. It still looks gorgeous with the new sets and Maria Björnson's original costume designs, but there is more focus on the truthfulness in the story we're bringing to life onstage.
"Laurence has directed us much more toward realism," Udine said by telephone recently from a Schenectady tour stop. "It's the same story we all love and with the same lush music ("The Music of the Night," "All I Ask of You," "Wishing You Were Somehow Here Again") but it is very different from the Broadway production. It approaches the characters in a more natural way."
The role of Christine is a natural for Udine, a New Jersey native who has been taking voice and dance lessons since she was in elementary school.
"Christine is a dancer, a ballerina and a singer. For me, that brings all of my training together. I've been dancing since I was really young, and this is a part every little girl wants to play. I used to sing the songs from the show in my voice lessons when I was 12 years old, and it is wonderful to be playing the role now."
And sometimes playing it for the legendary Mackintosh, who, along with Matthew Bourne, is overseeing the new production.
"Cameron Mackintosh came to our tech rehearsals and tour opening in Providence last fall, and later also to Chicago. When I was auditioning for Laurence, I knew that Cameron was behind the scenes so it was very cool to finally meet him, let alone get a chance to work with him," recalls Udine. "Even though I tried my best not to think about the fact that Cameron Mackintosh was watching us rehearse, I was very nervous. Afterward, he told us to go back to the basics and simplify our performances. Having him say that reinforced to me that I don't have to add more to the way I play Christine."
Udine knows that originating the role of Christine in London and then on Broadway helped give soprano Sarah Brightman a lasting career as a classical crossover artist. She's also aware that landing a leading role in a high-profile production at a young age doesn't mean that she can take anything for granted.
"Continuing to train is very important. I also have to live a bit of a different lifestyle. I'm only 20, so I can't drink alcohol, but I also can't go out every night. I have to eat healthy meals, protect my body, and drink a lot of tea with honey to soothe my voice," says Udine, who acknowledges that the demands are not only physical.
"I felt some pressure when I first went out with the tour, but it's better now. I'm where I am for a reason. I trust the people who put me in this position wouldn't put me here if they didn't think I could do it. You have to have a sense of confidence about your own talent and what you can do. At the same time, it is also important to stay humble and be nice to the people you're working with. It's an honor to be in a great show like this, with such a great cast. I know how lucky I am."

U.S. sled hockey team wins Paralympic gold
The 2014 U.S. Paralympic Sled Hockey Team won a gold medal at the Paralympic Winter Games, beating Russia 1-0.
Josh Sweeney, a U.S. Marine Corps veteran, scored the winning goal in Team USA's 1-0 win over Russia.
SOCHI, Russia — U.S. Marine Corps veteran Josh Sweeney (Glendale, Ariz.) scored the game-winning goal in the second period, allowing the U.S. Paralympic Sled Hockey Team to skate past Russia, 1-0, in the gold-medal game at the 2014 Paralympic Winter Games.
With the victory, Team USA becomes the first team to win back-to-back gold medals in the Paralympic Winter Games in sled hockey. The gold medal is the third for the U.S. since 2002.
"We have worked hard all year and this is a great group of guys," said Andy Yohe, a three-time Paralympian who captained the 2010 and 2014 teams. "We're pretty excited and so we should be."
The Americans struck for the contest's only marker at 9:28 of the middle frame when Sweeney converted after forcing a turnover in the offensive zone. Following a collision by two Russian players, Sweeney picked up the loose puck just inside the blue line and streaked in on Russian goaltender Vladimir Kamantcev. Sweeney deked to his left before sliding the puck back to his right and placing a shot over Kamantcev's glove and under the crossbar.
"I saw the defender, he had the puck and I just went after him," Sweeney said. "I did a little fake because that's what you want to do when you're up against a goalie that good. It wasn't anything that my other teammates couldn't have done."
Team USA played a strong defensive game throughout, limiting Russia to just six shots on goal while killing both Russian power-play opportunities. Goaltender Steve Cash (Overland, Mo.) came up with a pair of quality saves on dangerous Russian chances in the final stanza to hold Russia off the board.

UnNews:Daft Australian judge rules against artists who have used the note C-sharp in copyright infringement case
This article is part of UnNews, your source for up-to-the-microsecond misinformation.
5 February 2010
CANBERRA, Australia - Australian federal court judge Peter Jacobsen ruled in favor of the estate of Millicent Beauregard, which claimed in a copyright infringement lawsuit that Ms. Beauregard wrote a song in her bathtub sometime in the late 19th century that used the same C# note that almost every artist ever to record music has used at one time or another.
This list includes not only every Australian artist, including major hit single producers such as Men at Work and Midnight Oil, but also every other artist on the planet. Artists are now required to pay the estate of Ms. Beauregard as much as 60 percent of any earnings from songs that use the note C# anywhere in the melody or harmony.
The lawsuit was filed when a contestant on a popular music game show identified the Beauregard piece when the singular note was played. The note, however, had come from the 1981 Men at Work hit single, Down Under. The proprietor of the Beauregard estate saw the episode while scarfing down a vegemite sandwich in his trailer and decided to pursue what he saw was just reparations for the use of his great-grandmother's intellectual property.
Initial research has found that almost every artist has used the note in at least ten percent of their output, with the notable exceptions of Black Flag and Disturbed, who have never used any notes at all.
Judge Jacobsen was emphatic in his ruling. "I have come to the view." he wrote in his decision against the artists, "that the use of C# in any recording infringes on the copyright of that one song from 1880-something because it replicates in material form a substantial part of Ms. Beauregard's work."
There is no word yet on whether Anders Hejlsberg, developer of the popular computer programming language of the same name, will also need to pay royalties to the Beauregard estate.

However, for someone who is doing a BTEC in IT – he doesn't know about Hard Drives and partitions. There is concern over the Mission Statement of Dirty Boxers.

It's all a matter of taste. Do you like to have just one workspace for all your projects, or do you prefer to have multiple separate workspaces?
Sure, the first way seems to be the official, supported. It should be easy to manage the workspace -- given the tools like working sets (and working set filters), mylyn and the ability to close projects.
But I still don't get it.
I hate when my workspace is overflowing with projects, I want to have as many workspaces as projects.
So I create new workspace and live happily ever after.
But wait -- all my settings are gone. All my carefully crafted custom templates, all my keybindings, my font settings, everything is gone.
It's all text, fortunately
Lucky us. All eclipse settings are saved as a plain text in the workspace directory. So if you want to create new workspace, but preserve your settings, I have two answers for you:
The short answerAll settings are stored in the .metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.core.runtime/.settings directory. I mean -- all relevant settings. If you look into .metadata/.plugins directory there are many more directories with settings, but they are too project specific. I've walked trough these configuration files one by one, believe me, nothing useful lies hidden there.
So the short answer is: If you want to create a new eclipse workspace and preserve all your settings, simply copy the .metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.core.runtime/.settings directory into your new workspace directory.
The long answerLet the code do the talk for me.
I have created a (simple) shell script that automates new workspace creation. The downside is that it requires either *nix or windows with cygwin. It has been tested by me, I and myself so it should work (most of the time).
To use it, save it somewhere, make it executable (chmod +x new-workspace.sh) and run it either in interactive mode
./new-workspace.sh -iwhere it will ask you the details, or with paths to your workspaces (the new workspace directory will be created for you, just specify the path)
./new-workspace.sh old-workspace new-workspace.If the script doesn't work for you, drop me a comment. Feel free to improve it (you may drop me a comment too).
Update: the pastebin page expired (although I'd swear I checked the keep forever option), so I moved the script over to github.

Apple's blue shirts are getting a boost.
After an internal report showed that wages were the most commonly referred to gripe among employees, Apple has responded with an hourly increase, according to a Dow Jones report -- confimred by The Next Web.
The raises will range as high as $2 more an hour, with consideration given to the market's size and the amount of units moved by the store. A New Yorker is going to see more than someone in Des Moines.
U.S. & World
Apple store employees typically make between minimum wage and $15/hour. Genius Bar staffers with experience can make as much as $30/hour, but that's rare.
There are 363 Apple Retail stores, according to their site, but TNW has a revealing fact: current stores average $4,000 of revenue per square foot, the most of any retailer store (though, we'd have to canvas some Bentley or Ferrari dealerships to confirm that, though...).

Hyper-V 3 which is built into both the Free Hyper-V Server 2012 and Windows Server 2012 (Standard and Datacenter) which you can evaluate for free (free ISO, free VHD), has some really awesome capabilities. You can read more about Hyper-V in the overview of the Server Virtualization Expert Series: Hyper-V Basics. In this article, we are going to drill down into the newest, and to many people the most exciting technology in Hyper-v. A feature called Hyper-V Replica. In addition in keeping with the theme of the Server Virtualization Expert Series we will sprinkle in Step-By-Step & How-To's so you can do it yourself.
Please Tweet: @ITProGuru #VirtExpert Reading Hyper-V Replica http://aka.ms/ExpertReplica thru Virt Expert Blog Series http://aka.ms/VirtExpert
Understanding Hyper-V Replica
Hyper-V Replica is new in Windows Server 2012. It is an asynchronous, virtual machine replication technology that is designed for business continuity and disaster recovery.
Using Hyper-V Replica, you can replicate a virtual machine from one location to another using just Hyper-V and a network connection, as illustrated in the following diagram. Hyper-V Replica works with any server vendor, any network vendor, or any storage vendor. Also, unlimited replication is available out of the box.
Hyper-V Replica Benefits
Hyper-V Replica can provide the following benefits to your organization:
- Hyper-V Replica allows you, in the event of a failure at a primary site (for example, fire, power outage, or server failure), to fail over your production workloads to Replica servers at a secondary location with minimal downtime.
- Configurations for the Hyper-V Replica server and storage hardware at each site do not have to be identical. Domain membership is also not required.
- Hyper-V Replica provides the option to restore virtualized workloads to a point in time, depending on the recovery history selections for the virtual machine.
- Hyper-V Replica provides the necessary management APIs that enable IT management vendors to build an enterprise disaster recovery solution for their customers.
- Hyper-V Replica enables Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) for hosting providers that host dedicated virtual servers for their customers.
Replica Server Requirements
You can use Hyper-V Replica on hardware certified for Windows Server 2012. To take advantage of Hyper-V Replica, which is included as part of the Hyper-V server role, the following prerequisites must be met:
- Hardware that supports the Hyper-V role on Windows Server 2012. Keep in mind that hardware-assisted virtualization is available in processors that include a virtualization option—specifically processors with Intel Virtualization Technology (Intel VT) or AMD Virtualization (AMD-V) technology. In addition, hardware-enforced Data Execution Prevention (DEP) must be available and enabled.
- Sufficient storage on both the primary server and Replica server to host the files used by virtualized workloads.
- Network connectivity between the locations hosting the primary and Replica servers.
- Properly configured firewall rules to permit replication between the primary and Replica sites.
- You need to use certificate-based authentication if you want transmitted data to be encrypted. Use an X.509 v3 certificate to support mutual authentication with certificates.
See Configure BIOS Before Installing Windows Server 2012 and Hyper-V for Step-By-Step on how to setup the BIOS for Hyper-V
Hyper-V Installation Considerations
Consider the following as you are learning about Hyper-V Replica. For more information, see Install the Hyper-V Role and Configure a Virtual Machine. See http://itproguru.com/hol for a Step-By-Step Guide on How to Install Windows Server and How To Enable and Configure Hyper-V.
- Hyper-V Replica is implemented as part of the Hyper-V role. You can enable the Hyper-V role on a stand-alone server running Hyper-V or on servers that are members of a failover cluster. Servers running Hyper-V can function as members of a workgroup, or as member servers in the same or different Active Directory domains.
- The primary and Replica servers do not need to be part of the same Active Directory domain unless the Hyper-V role is enabled on servers that are members of a failover cluster.
- You can enable the Hyper-V role using Server Manager or using Windows PowerShell. The Hyper-V role has no dependencies on any other server roles. Installing the Hyper-V role also installs Hyper-V Manager (which is included in Remote Server Administration Tools (RSAT)).
Hyper-V Replica Terms and Definitions
- Replication – The ongoing process of sending data changes that have occurred on a primary virtual machine to the equivalent Replica virtual machine.
- Primary Server – The server running Hyper-V that hosts your virtualized production workloads.
- Primary Virtual Machine – A virtual machine running on the primary server that is participating in Hyper-V replication.
- Replica server – The server that hosts virtual machines that is maintained in reserve in the event that the primary server (and its primary virtual machines) must go offline. The Replica virtual machines are kept up to date with any changes that occur on the primary virtual machines by the process of replication. You can configure and manage Replica servers using Hyper-V Manager or Windows PowerShell.
- Replica virtual machine – A virtual machine running on the Replica server that receives changes that are detected on the corresponding primary virtual machine.
- Planned Failover – A controlled event where you move a virtual machine from the primary site to the Replica site.
- Unplanned Failover – An unplanned event that occurs when the primary site experiences a problem and the Replica virtual machines are brought online at the Replica site.
- Application-Consistent Replication – Replication that allows recovery to a point in time that is consistent from the perspective of applications. To accomplish this, the Volume Shadow Copy Service (VSS) is used.
Hyper-V Replica and Live Migration
Some people are initially confused about when to use Hyper-V Replica and when to use Hyper-V live migration. Hyper-V Replica keeps up-to-date copies of your virtual machines in case of a disaster, and allows you to switch to those copies when required. This is usually an unplanned event (although you can perform a planned failover with Hyper-V Replica, as described in the Hyper-V Replica Terms above). However, Hyper-V live migration is about planned events—moving your virtual machines and their associated storage across different locations when required. For more information about live migration in Windows Server 2012, see What's New in Hyper-V.
Virtual Machine Replication
The great advantage of Hyper-V Replica is that it provides virtual machine replication for any of your servers, networks, or storage vendors. It does not require a failover cluster or any shared storage. You can replicate individual or multiple virtual machines.
You can replicate your virtual machines from one computer running Hyper-V at a primary site (the primary server) to another computer running Hyper-V at a Replica site (the Replica server). Keep in mind that your Replica server can accept incoming replication traffic from one or more primary servers. This is illustrated below:

It does not require a failover cluster or any shared storage. You can replicate individual or multiple virtual machines. You can replicate your virtual machines from one computer running Hyper-V at a primary site (the primary server) to another computer running Hyper-V at a Replica site (the Replica server). Keep in mind that your Replica server can accept incoming replication traffic from one or more primary servers. This is illustrated below:
Replicating Virtual Machine Changes
After you have configured and performed the initial virtual machine replication, Hyper-V Replica sends out virtual machine changes on a frequent schedule. These changes are tracked in a log file, which is compressed before it is sent to the Replica server. On the primary server, changes are maintained in an ".hrl" file that is in the same location as the VHDs that are being replicated. You can compress the virtual machine data when you replicate virtual machine changes across the network.
Enabling Replication on the Replica Server
Before you can use Hyper-V Replica, you must enable your server running Hyper-V to be a Replica server. After you set up your Replica server, it can accept incoming replication traffic from the virtual machines on one or more primary servers.
You can enable a Replica server using Hyper-V Manager or Windows PowerShell. It is not necessary to independently remotely connect to your Replica server to perform this configuration.
Enable replication on WS2012VMHost1using PowerShell
Powershell might look something like this: {where WS2012VMHost1 is your host name AND C:Replica is where you want to store the replica's}
To enable replication on host machines, type the following commands and press ENTER.
Invoke-Command -ComputerName WS2012VMHost1 -ScriptBlock { Set-VMReplicationServer -ReplicationEnabled $True -ComputerName WS2012VMHost1 -AllowedAuthenticationType Kerberos -ReplicationAllowedFromAnyServer $True -DefaultStorageLocation C:Replica
Enable-NetFirewallRule -Name VIRT-HVRHTTPL-IN-TCP-NOSCOPE
Enable replication on ServerName using GUI
- In Server Manager, click Tools, and then click Hyper-V Manager.
- In the Actions pan, click Connect to Server (right pane), type ServerName, and then click OK. (or just click the server name if it is already there)
- Click Hyper-V Manager.
- Click ServerName.
- Click Hyper-V Settings (right pane)
- Click Replication Configuration (left pane)
- Turn on Checkbox to "Enable this computer as a Replica server"
- Make sure Use Kerberos (HTTP): is checked Specify the port: 80
- Click Allow replication from any authenticated server
- Type the location you would like to put replicas eg D:ReplicaTarget NOTE:
- Note: Replica Server Authorization
After you have decided upon authentication types, you must specify which primary servers are permitted to replicate virtual machines to your Replica server. You can allow authorization from any authenticated server, or you can specify a primary server. In both cases, Hyper-V Replica allows you to designate a specific location to store your recovery virtual machine files—for example, on a SAN, on an SMB file server, or using direct-attached storage
- Click OK
- Configure Firewall
Replication Firewall Rules
- Properly configured firewall rules permit replication between the primary and Replica servers and sites. To allow any incoming virtual machine replication traffic for configured replication ports, you must ensure an inbound firewall rule is created.
- Start – type: Control Panel- click Control Panel – System and Security – Windows Firewall – Advanced Settings – Inbound Rules
- Hyper-V Replica HTTP Listener (TCP-In) – Right Click and Select Enable Rule (make sure you enable the rule for the proper network)
- Hyper-V Replica HTTPS Listener (TCP-In) – Right Click and Select Enable Rule (make sure you enable the rule for the proper network)
- Close Windows Firewall with Advanced Security
Initial Virtual Machine Replication
Using Hyper-V Replica, an initial copy of all your virtual hard disks (VHDs) must be transferred to the Replica server (at your Replica site). This operation needs to happen before regular replication operations can start. Hyper-V Replica provides three different options for initial virtual machine replication.
- The first option is to transfer your selected virtual hard disks over the network to your Replica server. Using network replication, you can start your initial replication immediately or schedule it to happen at a specified time.
- Hyper-V Replica also gives you the option of using an existing backup copy on the Replica server. This means you can transfer a backup copy of your production virtual machine to your Replica server.
- Finally, Hyper-V Replica gives you the option of using external media. You can copy your selected VHDs to external media and deliver the external media to the Replica site. This is especially useful if your business operates in areas of expensive connectivity, or if you have to manage remote or regional server locations.
Initial Virtual Machine Replication – Step-By-Step
Initial Virtual Machine Replication is done by:
- In Hyper-V Manager, Select the Virtual Machine you wish to Replicate
- In Task Pane (right Pane) select Enable Replication (this is also available on the right click menu)
- Click Next on Before You Begin
- Type or Browse to the Replica Server (remember, this is the name of the destination server that will receive the replica) then Click Next
- Make sure Compress the data that is transmitted over the network is turned ON.
- then Click Next
- Replica Server Authentication – After you enable a Replica server for virtual machine replication, you configure specific authentication types and ports for incoming replication traffic.
You have two authentication options. You can use Kerberos authentication (using HTTP), but the data you send across the network will not be encrypted. You can also choose certificate-based authentication (using HTTPS), and the data sent across the network will be encrypted.
- Chose Recovery History options as desired (eg. Additional Recover Points = 4, Replicate incremental VSS every 4 hours)
Recovery History
If you need to restore a virtual machine, Hyper-V uses a recovery point. The recovery points contain one or more snapshots. You have the option of just keeping the latest recovery point for restoring your primary virtual machine on the Replica server, or you can choose to maintain multiple recovery points on your server. If you choose multiple recovery points, keep in mind that you will need more storage on the Replica server. When you specify the number of recovery points you want to keep, the Enable Replication Wizard specifies how much storage is needed. Recovery points are created every hour, but the Replica server receives frequent and regular changes from the primary server, so that your primary and Replica servers stay synchronized.
It is important to understand that if multiple recovery points are not configured, your server will only maintain the latest recovery point for the Replica virtual machine.
You can also choose to take application-consistent snapshots at a specified interval. They use the Volume Shadow Copy Service (VSS). This is useful, but keep in mind that when you take snapshots of your applications running on the primary virtual machine, it will have a performance impact on those applications as the snapshots are created.
- Click Send initial copy over the network and Start replication immediately
- Turn on the drives you want to replicate (usually all)
Hyper-V Replica Failover Operations
Hyper-V Replica is designed to help you in both planned (scheduled events) and unplanned (disaster recovery) failover situations. With Hyper-V Replica, you can fail over to a protected virtual machine on the Replica server at any time. There are three main options you need to understand for failover operations. Note that you can configure and manage Replica servers using Hyper-V Manager or Windows PowerShell. More coming soon.
- Planned Failover to a Replica Server
A planned failover operation enables you to fail over your production virtual machine to a Replica server as part of a predetermined schedule. You might want to do this for multiple reasons—for example, to test the state of your Replica virtual machine. This allows you to make appropriate arrangements in your organization if they are required. We recommend that you perform planned failovers for off-business hours.
There are several prerequisites when you perform a planned failover. Your virtual machine must not be running, and your server running Hyper-V at the primary site must be enabled to receive replication traffic from the Replica server. Keep in mind that a planned failover also initiates a "reverse replication." Reverse replication is the process where replication is established from a virtual machine that was formerly a Replica virtual machine, but is now a primary virtual machine as the result of a failover. You can also perform a planned failover using Windows PowerShell.
- Test Failover to a Replica Server
Hyper-V Replica is continually updating the Replica server to ensure that the primary virtual machine matches the Replica virtual machine as closely as possible. If you want to, you can test a Replica virtual machine on the Replica server. You can conduct a test failover operation at any time without interrupting ongoing replication. This process creates and starts a virtual machine with the name "<virtual machine name> – Test".
- Unplanned Failover to a Replica Server
In the event of a failure in the primary site, you can bring up the Replica virtual machine on the Replica server. When you configured your Replica server in the Enable Replication Wizard, you had the option of specifying multiple recovery points. Now, you can select the one you require to restore the specified the virtual machine. You can also start your Replica virtual machine in an unplanned failover using Windows PowerShell.

CONCACAF officials and Sint Maarten Soccer Association President visit the newly remodeled national football field, Raul IIidge Sports Complex.
PHILIPSBURG, Sint Maarten – At the IV Sint Maarten Soccer Association (SMSA) General Membership Meeting on Saturday, CONCACAF President Jeffrey Webb and General Secretary Enrique Sanz voiced their pleasure with the progress the federation has made over the last few months.
"I want to congratulate President Nickie, Vice President Jones and their administration for all the great progress made since my last visit early this year," said Webb, before announcing that CONCACAF will bring referee and coaching training courses to the island in the near future. "We will continue supporting the federation in fulfilling its goals of development. We must never forget that we are here to assist our youth and provide education at a grassroots level."
The SMSA membership assembled at the Great Bay Beach Hotel for the meeting and reiterated its commitment to the game by re-electing the incumbent leadership -- President Owen Nickie, Vice President Elton Jones and General Secretary Terry Woods -- to another term in office.
"I want to thank our members for the opportunity of continuing our work to develop football in Sint Maarten," expressed Nickie after the election. "I would also like to thank CONCACAF for its constant support and my special gratitude to President Webb for his treasured advice."
After the gathering, the CONCACAF delegation was escorted to the Raul IIidge Sports Complex, the recently renovated national football stadium. The venue has received more than US$5 million in government investment for improvements, including the installation of artificial turf and the construction of new locker rooms, as well as other enhancements.
In January, Webb conveyed his unease with the state of the declining facility. SMSA officials and the former Minister of Education, Culture, Youth and Sports, Silveria Jacobs, shared with him their vision for upgrading football's infrastructure and the development of youth players. During their meeting, Jacobs expressed her support in integrating efforts and assisting football to move forward on the island. Final renovations to the stadium are scheduled to be completed by December.
"I am extremely proud of the partnership between the SMSA and the government for the advancement of sports in the island," expressed Webb. "This is a perfect example of how government and federations can collaborate in order to make a difference in the lives of our youth."
Founded in 1986, the SMSA became an Associate Member of CONCACAF in 2002 and, given its strong resolve and Webb's intervention, gained full membership during the XXVIII CONCACAF Ordinary Congress on April 2013 in Panama City, Panama.

I was reading somebody's blog post and watched the link they posted about the UN's Big Data research when I heard the emcee reference a study out of MIT that looked at Facebook user profiles at MIT and could predict a user's sexual preferences based on their friendships. So, I investigated the research.
You can read the entire paper here. The title is 'Gaydar: Facebook friendships expose sexual orientation' by Carter Jernigan and Behram F.T. Mistree.
Disclaimer: I didn't read the entire paper. It's really long. I did read the majority of it.
Here are the high points:
Aggregation of personal data – The researchers talk about how in any environment – state department or social media, the aggregation of data poses a great potential for risk. A few examples they use are officials looking up the passport activity of President Obama as well as confidential information of taxpayers. If the information is available anywhere, people will exploit it.
Sex segregation – As the old saying goes "birds of a feather flock together" and this truth intuitively makes sense. Those of us that enjoy leadership and being on teams will migrate towards campus involvement. Those more proficient in sports activities and have a competitive attitude and drive and thus will most likely find each other on sports teams. Well, the same could be said in regards to how sexes segregate themselves. A study cited in the paper states that men have 65% male friends and 35% female friends and females have 70% female friends and 30% male friends. This suggests a likelihood that if given an individual person identified by a specific sex, they should have the same percentage of friendships. A significant deviation from this might offer some insight to that person's lifestyle.
Homosexuality and sexual segregation – According to the study, homosexual men and women draw the majority of their friends from the LGB community whereas bisexual men and women draw their friends from the heterosexual community. So, again an observation of the amount of the sex of friendships of an individual user should begin to indicate insights about that user.
Forming the hypothesis – Because of these observations, we expect gay males to have a higher proportion of gay male friends online.
Methodology - The researchers used a web-crawling software (Arachne) to go through all of the Facebook users at MIT and extract data concerning student's sex and "interested in" information as well as the user's friendships. The result was that the researchers could use explicit and implicit (see article for explanantion) friendships to deduce a user's sexual orientatation based on what their friends listed in their "interested in" bio information. For example, if an MIT male was examined, based on the percentage of male/female friends he had and their listed sexual orientations – the algorithm developed by the researchers could tell the sexual orientation of the user.
Implications – So, the most interesting thing about this, to me, isn't being able to know someone's sexual orientation. That's interesting, but I don't really care. Rather, what's really significant about this is the notion that people can harvest seemingly harmless information about you and use it to make implicit assumptions about you. Think about it this way - you're a CIA agent. You live in Atlanta and work for a private equity firm as a cover so your family and friends think you're normal. Say you're trying to keep up with your kids so you have a very basic Facebook profile and every once in awhile you tweet a picture of you and the fam on vaca or the new boat you just bought. Obviously, you wouldn't post that you work for the government in your 'About Me' information or anything that would significantly link you to a clandestine profession. But, what this research is suggesting is that we can make accurate predictions on a user's lifestyle/personal habits based on information that they aren't making readily available. So, perhaps I scan your friends on Facebook and most of them make sense except a few that are located in D.C. and that information coupled with some of your spending habits that I've observed on your Twitter/Instagram accounts yields a suggestion that you travel to cities that are outside of your job's requirements and your standard of living is significantly different from what it should be. Certainly there are other explanations for these observations. However, another insight that this research suggests is that "types" of people act in similar patterns. So, sure all of these insights into your buying history and friendships would be normal ordinarily. However, when compared with a test set of other CIA agents' info, we come up with a 95% likelihood that you are, in fact, a CIA agent. Cover blown. Your kids and wife are taken hostage and Arnold Schwarzenegger is called in to come and save you.
This is a bit of a reach, but I think the underlying coversation here is very significant. If Big Data analysis is allowing businesses, governments, or (God forbid) terrorists to gain useful insights into aspects of our lives that we aren't intentionally sharing... what could that mean?

You pay the monthly cable or DSL bill each month with your hard earned money, so that in all respects should be your internet. No leeches and no one else trying to ride for free by using your Wi-Fi. In today's post, we will review how you can keep a constant monitor on your wireless network setup.
There is a good possibility that your router's software may actually have some built-in functions for detecting wireless connections. For example, in Airport Utility for Macs and many Linksys routers for Windows, you can check how many wireless clients are connected to your Wi-Fi network. However, this function is a bit limited, as it doesn't allow for advanced features such as live monitoring and detection. With NirSoft Wireless Network Watcher, however, you can keep better track of your Wi-Fi network.
To get started, jump to the NirSoft Wireless Network Watcher homepage and scroll down the page until you reach the download links. From here, proceed to download the NirSoft installer to your computer.
Upon download, you won't need to install the software, as the .EXE file contains the launcher also. Simply double click the .EXE file to start using NirSoft.
Once the application starts up, you may notice that it is very lightweight, fast, and simple. The software detects wireless users and lists them by IP Address, Device Name, Mac Address, Network Adapter Company, Device Information, Computer Name, Initial Detection Date and Detection Count.
You can configure more advanced settings for the software by navigating the path Options > Advanced Options.
Earlier in the article, it was mentioned that the software is capable of detecting live connections. However, what if you don't have the NirSoft window active on screen? For this, you can set the software to beep whenever it detects a new connection, using the path Options > Beep on new device.
If you prefer the application to take up even less desktop space, you can also check the option Put Icon on Tray.
Cool stuff… but what if you want the software to auto launch whenever you start your PC, so that you don't have to remember to start it. For this, you may be able to use Windows Task Scheduler or another automation software.
That's basically all there is to it. Although simple in nature, NirSoft's Wireless Network Watcher is a nice basic utility for monitoring your Wi-Fi network. It would be nice to have a boot option to disconnect unwanted users from the Wi-Fi, but that would require things like setting up a master computer for the network, etc… Thank you for stopping by the site for today's post. If any of our site visitors have any similar recommended Wi-Fi monitors, feel free to leave a comment in order to help others.

Changing Lives, Changing the World: Information Literacy and Critical Pedagogy
Instructor: Maria T. Accardi
Dates: Nov. 1 – Nov. 28, 2012
Credits: 1.5 CEUs
From Library Juice Academy
Instruction librarians interested in enriching their pedagogical practices in progressive, political, and innovative ways will be interested in this workshop on critical pedagogy and library instruction. Critical pedagogy is a theory and framework that envisions education as a site for social change. The ultimate goal of critical pedagogy is for students to achieve critical consciousness about societal oppression and then become equipped to change the world. Critical pedagogy has, in recent years, been brought into conversation with information literacy and library instruction theory and practice. Instruction librarians have been exploring how progressive pedagogical practices not only serve to teach students information literacy skills, but also to equip learners with an understanding of racism, sexism, homophobia, xenophobia, and other forms of oppression, and how they, as learners, can change the dominant culture that perpetuates these forms of oppression. This workshop continues and participates in this conversation by providing participants with an overview of critical pedagogy, contextualizing it in library instruction, and empowering participants how to enact it in their own educational settings.
Participants will engage with the workshop via assigned readings, homework, and online discussion. Homework assignments will include developing lesson plans and assessment tools designed in the critical pedagogical framework.
At the end of the workshop, students will be able to:
– Define critical pedagogy in order to identify implications for library
– Identify ways in which critical pedagogy might be employed in the library setting in order to enrich instructional practices
– Design critical pedagogical learning activities and assessment tools in order to deploy them in the library instruction classroom
– Describe the importance and significance of liberatory, progressive, and critical approaches to education in order to serve as an agent of change in the library instruction classroom.

Gareth Morgan of Welnix spoke to Larry Williams about the Hurricanes deal on Newstalk ZB last night - listen here (it's a good interview).
I'm left with more than a few questions surrounding this announcement, and I think an appropriate way to consider the impact of this new ownership structure is to consider the major 'players' impacted by the negotiations - the NZRU, the licencees, the provinces, the players and the fans.
From the New Zealand Herald (linked at the top):
"These new arrangements are a step forward in terms of putting Super Rugby on a stronger financial footing to ensure the game at the professional level is better placed to prosper and deliver for its fans,'' said NZRU chief executive Steve Tew.Firstly, there is no question that the NZRU is a clear winner in this process. They get (desperately needed) injections of private funds into the Super franchises which are expensive to run, and have been a drain on the union's coffers. To understand just how they win, though, it is useful to know what the licence for operating a team entails. Also from the NZH article above:
The NZRU will retain full ownership of the franchises, the contracting process and coaching appointments.The NZRU one of the partners in SANZAR rugby, the group that runs the Super Rugby tournament (the others being the South African and Australian Rugby Unions). As such, they are the recipient of the broadcast revenues that accrue to each nation. The licencees don't see any of this revenues - these revenues are used to pay the players. The NZRU therefore has the power to allocate the players to each franchise. Investors can do what they like once they get their player list, but a large portion of ownership responsibility is in fact taken away from them. It is a very different ownership structure from, say, US-based, Australian or European sports leagues. At least in the A-League, the Wellington Phoenix can employ whoever they want and sign any player they want. The NZRU retain control of which players can play in Super Rugby, what teams they play for and who coaches them. It is a very favourable set-up to the governing body, no question. It is understandable if the NZRU wishes to avoid any club/country conflict that affects many of our Pacific Island neighbours with overseas-based players contractually bound to overseas clubs that often conflict with commitments to the national team. Crisis averted. The other thing that the licencee model does for the NZRU is to wash their hands of the micro-level management that is often difficult when trying to run the game from a central level. The day-to-day running of a franchise is best done on the ground, and the rationale is that private investors will do the job of running the franchise more efficiently than the NZRU or a provincial-based board could. After all, there might even be some money in it for licencees if they do a good enough job!
Investors will get to select, market and manage their team as well as lobby for players outside New Zealand if that works in tandem with the sport's governing body.
Think next of the licencees - show me the money? Where is it coming from? And where are the wider incentives to invest in the franchises? As mentioned above, licencees will select, market and manage their team. That is, they'll do the best that they can with who they are given by the NZRU (who pay the players, after all). They are in the best position to eliminate inefficiencies in the day-to-day running of the franchise - they'll have a clear incentive to run a pretty tight ship. The Hurricanes are considered to be the most financially viable franchise in New Zealand, and it isn't hard to see why - above-average crowds at the Westpac Stadium go a long way towards making ends meet. They are also a well-run franchise - there's a small matter of a lack of hardware, though. If you are an investor in the Hurricanes, the licence allows you to market the team, keep gate revenues (while presumably paying stadium rentals too) and generate deals for sponsorship (including a sponsors logo on the front of the jersey). Gareth Morgan in the interview above talks about player academies as another source of opportunity for licencees. It's an interesting prospect - what incentives do the licencees have to develop talent (e.g. put together and run a development squad) that they have to pay for but run the very real risk of losing those players if the NZRU decides to add them to the contracted players pool? There would have to be some arrangement in place for teams to be able to have first rights to developed talent should they make the grade. Otherwise, player development is a very risky prospect. The other thing Gareth mentions in his interview, and it is also mentioned here, is altruism - that the licence is being purchased to keep the franchise in the city/region. That's admirable, and if I had loads of money to throw around, I'd be rather keen on altruistic projects too. There's another factor at play here, though, in the case of the Hurricanes, and that is the now close relationship with the Phoenix. Given that the Welnix group now have ownership stakes in both franchises, it gives them greater bargaining power with the Westpac Stadium, and also the city and regional council. (Gareth doesn't want to stop with these two franchises, though - he wants more!) This is, in several respects, a clever decision by the Hurricanes licence holders. This has to be tempered, however, with the reality that the market in New Zealand cities are small ones, and becoming increasingly competitive markets at that. The more control of sporting alternatives that you have locally, the more you stand to gain under the NZRU licence arrangement. The big question for me is how long licence holders will be happy to simply receive players rather than selecting their own. I see it like this: you invest in a business but you have to use a consultant as a condition of the investment. How happy are you when you find out that the consultant is in fact in the same position with all of your competitors? Seems a bit odd, doesn't it? That's why sports leagues were famously described as 'peculiar' by a founding sports economist in 1964.
This brings me to the provinces. Yes, provinces are struggling - we've seen this on several occasions in recent times. If your Super franchise is a money drain, you'd be jumping at the news that some other poor unfortunate soul will take them off your hands for you. If your Super franchise gives you valuable dividends that often mean the difference between finishing the financial year in the black or red, then you'd be thinking twice as to whether this new ownership deal is a good thing or not. The dividends arent likely to have been large in recent years, but they'd still be welcomed in Hurricanes country by the smaller unions that make up their catchment area.
And what about the players? What does the new ownership structure mean for them? Well, in my view, they are the biggest losers (in terms of the alternative). Nothing changes - they are presently contracted by the NZRU, and they will still be contracted by the NZRU under licence arrangements. If the licencees were able to pay for players, well, the ballpark would be markedly different - imagine free agency. Imagine a less-free structure by which players could be paid a central contract by the NZRU but franchises who really want/need them would pay extra to get them. Free agency has its critics, but it has fundamentally changed the landscape of sports that have adopted it. Licencees would have a greater incentive under free agency or something similar to identify and develop talent - not only within these shores but also overseas. Giving licencees the power to pay players would quite likely make players winners in this deal. As it is, that's one of the least likely things to happen.
Last, but by no means the least, are the fans - what does this mean for them? Well, I've alluded to a couple of things that would make fans a little nervous (greater franchise power in the Wellington area, for a start, along with more centralised key decision-making influenced by broadcast deals), but on the surface it would appear that there has been (and will be) very little change. In many respects it will be business as usual.
For this economist, I am left wondering where this step might lead to. It is a first step to many possibilities. Exciting ones, too, if done right. There just has to be a little more loosening of the reins.
UPDATE: I was curious, so I did a brief analysis of the franchises in the four US major league sports in 2011 by examining revenues and expenses to see how many would 'survive' under a system like what is proposed for the Super franchises. It is only crude, but it is rather insightful. I used Rod Fort's Sports Business Data site (an unparalleled resource) and did a quick calculation of the difference between gate revenues and expenses less player costs. I didn't have the exact breakdown of revenues beyond gate and total revenues, so I just used gate revenues. The NHL had 15 of its 30 teams that broke even or better using this model. They aren't even playing this year. Major League Baseball would have 10 of its 30 teams breaking even or better. Only four of the 30 NBA franchises would break even or better, and none (yes, zero) of the NFL franchises would meet their costs. If anything, this highlights that sport is a risky business to succeed in, with a pretty low probability (29/122 = 23.8% in 2011) of 'success'.

I am
writing to urge you to take all necessary steps to conserve the critically
endangered Florida panther. Specifically, we urge the U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Service to make securing habitat and travel corridors for the Florida panther
one of its highest priorities.
With an
estimated 100-160 remaining, the Florida panther is one of the most endangered
mammals in the U.S. and we have a limited window of time to protect and restore
undeveloped tracts of land and provide habitat linkages before they are lost.
Plans are
in the works to build new subdivisions and industrial complexes and several new
highways in the rural regions of the state. These highways would run through
panther habitat and public conservation lands and lead to even more development
and fragmentation.
deaths are already the number one human cause of mortality for these endangered
animals. Increasing fragmentation of panther's habitat would lead to even more
deaths on roads. Last year, a record 19 panthers were struck and killed by
motorists, more than in any other year. Scientists believe that loss of
panthers on roads is preventing the cats from expanding their breeding range
The FWS can
make sure that enough contiguous habitat remains for these majestic cats to
survive and return northward into their historic range. We urge you to make
that a top priority in the coming year.
Thank you
for your consideration.

Florida panthers once prowled and flourished in America's southeastern woodlands and swamps, but today fewer than 160 of these majestic cats remain in a tiny remnant of their historic range....
Florida panthers once prowled and flourished in America's
southeastern woodlands and swamps, but today fewer than 160 of these majestic
cats remain in a tiny remnant of their historic range. And that habitat is
shrinking every day – gobbled up by subdivisions and commercial development.
We're in a race against time.
As panther habitat becomes more and more fragmented, it will be increasingly
difficult for these creatures to stay out of harm's way.
Please ask Secretary
Jewell and Director Ashe to make protecting and recovering critically
endangered Florida panthers a top priority!

The Venizea is the largest conference and event centre in Noumea. It is located in the Nouvata Park Hotel complexe on Anse Vata Beach. The venue can hold up to 1000 people for special events and can be divided into three smaller conference rooms plus a lobby for trade shows and conferences. In this sphere image the room is set up for a wedding reception. The Wallician people of New Caledonia throw an enormous party when a young couple gets married. The party-goers pay to cover the costs plus provide a gift, in cash, for the newlyweds.
Noumea is the capital and vacation centre of the Islands of New Caledonia in the South Pacific. Noumea is a "French" city, but the 91,000 inhabitants are a very mixed cultural group with French, Melanesian, Polynesian, Indonesian, Vietnamese, and lots of mixtures of these. Over 60% of the population of New Caledonia lives in Noumea.Noumea is a peninsula on the southwestern end of Grande Terre and the central business district (Centre Ville) is next to one of the best natural harbours in the South Pacific. The lagoon side of the peninsula has two picturesque bays with white sand beaches and is called Anse Vata and Baie des Citrons. These twin bays are the international tourism capital of New Caledonia with hotels, restaurants and bars on the landward side of "La Promenade".First settled by the French in 1854, Noumea retains close political ties with France. It has excellent schools and public facilities - parks, recreation areas, exercise paths, schools and medical facilities. Today it is the fastest growing city in the South Pacific. There are 23 hotels in Noumea ranging from one to five stars and over 100 Restaurants.
