Best Bang for the Buck ....Seeking Advice
winter is coming and I need to get ready early. I do not like being cold. I purchased my home earlier this year it was built in 1960, and the WILLIAMSON furnace (model 1115-10-4) must be original to that year.
My problem is the furnace was retro fitted with an S86 spark unit that has now gone bad, most likely due to the heat from burner box. I am confidant that I can replace this myself, but I cannot help to wonder why not return the furnace to a stand alone pilot, as it was made.
I realize I would then need a new valve, and possibly a transformer. These are simple devices but I do not think I can make this change without help or advice if I tried.
So, good idea or bad? Seems to me getting rid of the pilot system would return to simple operation. I do plan on replacing the entire furnace ASAP but this may take me a season or two before I can afford it.
(tried to add pics)
The original system likely had few if any safety devices on it. This system has flame detection, high temp switch (in case air flow restriction or blower shuts down).
Personally I don't think it's worth messing with. You've gottne a good solid 50 years out of it. Its' rpobably at most 70% efficient on a good day. Even just a basic 80% efficient furnace may be cheaper than you think. I'd get a small loan rather than compromise my safety with a gas heating appliance.

that is good advice moto,
but I cannot afford to replace the whole unit yet, I think replacing the existing S86 to make it work will be the bandaid needed for this upcoming season. It is not just the furnace replacement, planning for central air, new ducts etc the list goes on. You are right with the 80% thinking, this would be my choice as well. My experience in the past with high effeciancy furnaces makes me prefer a lower unit.
If you don't like to be cold, you'd better think fast and find a way to come up with the money for a new unit. Those gas valves for that unit are all but impossible to find. I tried several years ago to get one and had no luck at all. So if you don't want to get stuck in the middle of a cold snap, think long and hard about trying to milk another winter out of this old turkey. It's long since lived it useful life, several times over.
If YOU want change, YOU have to first change.
If you are waiting for the 'other guy' to change first, just remember, you're the 'other guy's' other guy. To continue to expect real change when you keep acting the same way as always, is folly. Won't happen. Real change will only happen when a majority of the people change the way they vote!
#1. This isn't a DIY site and we can't offer you DIY assistance.
#2. Skippedover and Motoguy are right. I would be concerned that there is more issues with that unit than just a bad spark module.
Call a pro to repair it. That thing is NOT efficient at all but will probably last another 60 years if maintained. I still have a brand new one in the box in my warehouse circa 1978

The best "bang for your buck" would be to get rid of that thing.

The MSOE rowing team finished their fall season Saturday at the Head of the Eagle Regatta in Indianapolis, Ind. The Raiders won the men's open lightweight 4+ race with a time of 13:33.90. There were ten boats in that race including Michigan, Michigan State and Marquette. On the boat were senior coxswain Rachel Connon, sophomore stroke Jonathan Allen, junior Ben Lang, senior Erik Winer and senior bow seat Luke Engebretson. As a team, MSOE earned 31.5 points at the event which took place at the Eagle Creek Reservoir.
In the men's open novice 8+ A race, the Raiders finished sixth out of ten boats with a time of 13:38.60. MSOE was fifth of 11 with a mark of 13:39.90 in the men's open 4+ race. In the men's open 4+ B race, the Raiders placed fifth with a time of 14:08.80.

I've searched in the documentation and on the forums without finding any reference to the subject.
Is it possible to perform callbacks using Spring remoting facilities? By callback, I mean the ability to perform a remote call passing a reference to a local object, and allow the remote server to call back the client thru that reference.
I've done it in the past using RMI and I'm wondering if it's possible (and easier) using Spring.

@theblackdragon What where
Capture it in a glass and take it outside D:
My first article on NL! :3
I have yet to find a NintendoZone that actually works. I see the little "NintendoZone is available" flashing fairly frequently when out and about, but it always fails to connect to it.
"The console itself isn't the most attractive piece of gaming hardware"
I think it looks pretty cool, personally
Not too surprising. Perhaps simply because they don't do a whole lot of changing, Pokémon games do have a timeless quality to them. FireRed is still for me the game that I can pick up and blast through for a few hours despite being nearly 10 years old. HG has that quality too, they're instantly accessible and not too grind-heavy.
Meanwhile Emerald, Platinum and all of Gen V are the ones to pick up if you want something with a bit more challenge. I neglect Ruby & Sapphire here because they're almost too hard - a dearth of trainers between gyms make for some punishing challenges and a lot of grinding - whilst Emerald remains challenging but better balanced. And Diamond and Pearl suffered from a snail-paced battle engine and surfing movement, mercifully rectified in Platinum.
@Captain_Belko @WhoBeThat @Whirlpool Haha wow, that kicked up a storm. I feel I owe an explanation: I just found it really uninteresting. It kicked off really well - that coral reef was gorgeous (and later the jellyfish part was really well done too) - and then most of the rest of the film was set against empty blue or empty green. It was Dora killed the film for me though, she was just really annoying. For the entire movie. I'd have probably enjoyed it considerably more if they'd just harpooned Dora.
The rest of the cast were forgettable too. Like, literally forgettable. I've seen this movie twice, once less than 6 months ago, and I cannot remember any of the supporting cast. I remember a stoned turtle and I think there was a shark (but that might've been a different film). And I know that there were other characters in Nemo's tank, but I cannot for the life of me remember who or what any of them were. One was a starfish I think?
And I can't remember the story either. Nemo got lost... somehow. Dora is involved for reasons unknown, and Nemo and DadNemo (what was dad's name?) reunite at the end. There were seagulls I remember being pretty funny but I don't think they were integral to the plot.
Compare to Monsters Inc that I've only seen once - when it was first out in cinemas, 12 years ago, when I was 11 - and loved it. I can still remember a decent amount of that film.
OK, perhaps 'hated' was a strong word. I just found Finding Nemo bland and it completely failed to hold my attention. I usually really enjoy Pixar and Disney CGI movies.I could watch any of the other movies all day. Well, except the Cars movies. The rest though have all been stellar.
Since kanji and hiragana versions are trademarked, I hereby trademark ワルワル.
And will sue them both.
Is that how it works?
That's a shame. As I recall, NoA has something of a better history in general when it comes to replacement parts and things though.
by the way, you've cropped the article preview a bit short on the homepage
Actually surprised Beyblade still exists. Remember my old friends back in high school used to collect them
Anyone else just try tapping the code on this article to see if anything would happen?
Nintendolife I am disappoint
Wait wait. An album of remixes from a game whose soundtrack consisted almost solely of remixes? Remixeption.
@haxonberik: It only means the end of a project if they fail to meet their primary target (in which case they don't get funded and backers don't lose their money). This project did reach its target, it was the "stretch goal" (a second target after the first is reached) to get it ported to Wii U that they missed.
Sweet. Yeah, the new panels take some time to take off with regards pink piece distribution. But they do get there. That's the beauty of it. I've collected the pink pieces for all of them except the last 4, but I'm only missing 3 or 4 pink pieces for the first 2 of those.
It makes it a fun decision when you StreetPass someone with them - do I take a standard blue that will finally finish off a puzzle that's been missing a piece for weeks, or do I go for the illustrious pink but leave the other unfinished for even longer?
I've been sweating over getting the final blue piece of the MK7 panel for months now D:
"Noobtastic" and "Supervisor Fapjack"? I do hate the internet humour "self-awareness" fad in games. Asides that, looks a well-made brawler.
See, when people complain that every other game is a generic FPS featuring lifeless, hyper-generic "I'M SUCH A DUDE" marines in battle armour, doing scripted stunts in some attempt to drain soME Rule of Cool from a reserve run dry decades previous, this is why.
Capcom nearly put Megaman in a generic FPS featuring a lifeless, hyper-generic "I'M SUCH A BAD DUDE" marine in battle armour, doing scripted stunts in some attempt to drain some Rule of Cool from a reserve run dry decades previous, and you're all cheering for it.
Think of it this way: Could you take Samus out of Metroid Prime, and have it still feel like a Metroid game? Yes. It would still have the heavy exploration bent, the puzzles, the upgrade-and-progress, the backtracking. Everything that makes Metroid Metroid is not the woman in the power suit.
Could you take Mega Man out of this and still have it feel like a Mega Man game? Hell no. It doesn't even feel like a Mega Man game as it is. Absolutely everything that makes Mega Man play like Mega Man is missing. Precision shooting / evasion? Nope, machine guns. Charming graphics? Nope, metal corridors and black mechs. Extremely limited firepower? Nope, ratattattatattattaattaata, kick in face, steal overpowered mega-rifle, vaporize anything.
Had this been posted 8 days ago I would have sworn (and prayed) that it was a clever April Fools' joke. That somebody had cleverly modded Haze and posted it on the internet. Tragically, it almost happened, and almost ruined Mega Man far more efficiently than cancelling 3 Legends ever could.
Also, frikking machine guns.
Oh god. People like the look of this? It's Bomberman Act Zero all over again. Mega Man does not suit serious, gritty corridor FPS.
@Linkuini Jynx*
But yeah. Every gen has about the same ratio of great to stupid/unimaginative Pokémon. It has not increased as years have gone by. Gen I has Jynx, Mr Mime, Grimer ("sewage Pokémon!"), Muk ("moar sewage Pokémon!"), Voltorb ("We gave a Pokéball eyes! LOL."), Electrode ("We turned it upside down! DESIGN LOL"), Magneton (it's 3 Magnemite in proximity. They're not even fused together. What happens with 4 of them? Or just 2? Or 1000?); whilst Jigglypuff, Clefairy and Chansey look like different drafts of the same design.
"we've decided to shift LucasArts from an internal development to a licensing model, minimizing the company's risk while achieving a broader portfolio of quality Star Wars games"
"we've decided to kill the company to keep the logo, that way we can put a LucasArts stamp on to any dross made on the cheap by any company; and dupe the masses into believing they're still buying a quality product from a veteran studio."
This is where the Wii U is really going to struggle to keep third parties on board - the Wii had limited 3rd party support, and developing games was relatively "cheap," compared to the huge budgets thrown at PS360 titles. But now the Wii U is running PS360 comparable tech: for 3rd parties looking to the next generation (PS4, X720), "porting down" or making special Wii U versions is suddenly a cost on par with current PS360 titles - really bloody expensive.
And the Nintendo community has proved, continually, that 3rd parties have little place on Nintendo's consoles. Sales are massively poorer compared to Nintendo's own 1st- and 2nd-party titles, and every vague piece of bad news is met with an astonishing level of bile and furious outcry. Nintendo can do no wrong, apparently, yet third parties are always promptly lynch mobbed should one so much as suggest that Nintendo's sinking ship is rather a large risk investment.
I don't think Nintendo fans are allowed to be fatigued at any series that hasn't been having regular entries for at least 20 years
Like Orla, lots of Pokémon White 2. I'm doing a catch and train 'em all run though - a "party" of 65 'mons (106 'obtained' in the Pokédex) so far, with 4 badges. 114 hours and counting! Still somehow fun, too.
And also Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate on 3DS. On with the 3-star quests!
Cool for EU~ But, I've bought Cave Story on 2 platforms now, won't be buying it again. PC version is excellent.
I'm fairly confident that the Wii U will see a price cut this year. Probably not as drastic as the 3DS's (and thereby dodging the embarrassing "whoops we messed up, have 20 free games" scenario), but by about £30 ($50) or so.
@Tertis: Companies don't plan for their consoles to tank for a year just so they can have a decent E3. They want them to sell well and have a good E3.

More Advice For Obama
That L.A. Times piece Mike linked to earlier had a couple more useful nuggets. First, a theory of Hillary's support that sounds both interesting and plausible: READ MORE >>
Who Hates Hillary?
Say what you will about Kos, I think he nails it here: What I'm seeing is lots of people take a look at Hillary, then say, "Why was it that I hated her again?" The right-wing press told everyone for so long that they hated Clinton, that people simply assumed they did. When they see her, they're no longer so sure. READ MORE >>
Obama, Social Security, And "conventional Thinking"
There's something odd about Barack Obama's latest attacks on Hillary Clinton for not offering a plan to "save" Social Security. Josh Marshall is already complaining that Obama's new strategem buys into the view of what Jon Chait wonderfully dubbed "entitlement hysterics." But beyond that substantive question is a meta question about the politics of Social Security. READ MORE >>
The Strange Case Of Carl Snickenbacker
People have yet to fully discover and appreciate the splendor of the New York Times making its complete archives from 1860 available online for free. Needless so say you can read endlessly about wars and presidents and so on. But the archives are also filled with stories like this 1886 tale of a Detroit man scalded to death by boiling candy. --Michael Crowley READ MORE >>
Yep, That Was Brownback Giving Romney The Finger
Yesterday I noted that Sam Brownback's meeting with Rudy Giuliani looked like a direct slap at Mitt Romney, as though Brownback were saying he was so convinced Romney was a phony he'd rather support the pro-choice Giuliani instead. Now Greg Sargent has some evidence that that's how it's being received. Reports Sargent: READ MORE >>
The Journal Swings Into Anti-huckabee Mode
John Fund has an interesting column about Mike Huckabee in today's Wall Street Journal. It's interesting in that it reveals more about conservative elites than about Huckabee. Fund writes: READ MORE >>
In Search Of ... D.b. Cooper
My friend and former colleague Geoffrey Gray wrote a terrific article this week fingering a new suspect, Kenneth Christiansen, in the legendarily-unsolved case of skyjacker D.B. Cooper. The piece starts with a P.I. hand-delivering a note to Sleepless in Seattle writer/director Nora Ephron and takes off from there. READ MORE >>
American Gangster Meets Mr. Untouchable
I'll have something to say about Ridley Scott's American Gangster when it opens next week (preview: well-made but somewhat familiar). In the meantime, though, you might want to take a look at the conversation New York magazine has up between the film's titular kingpin, Frank Lucas, and his chief competitor in the 70s Harlem heroin trade, Nicky Barnes, himself the subject of the new documentary Mr. Untouchable.

Obama Abroad
Michelle Obama tells Linda Douglas that her husband is plenty experienced, citing among other things the fact that "[h]e's had, you know, experiences like living abroad." Given America's recent ill-concieved foreign misadventures, this worldliness is one of Obama's better selling points. But Michelle's quote reminds me that it's not something he ever seems to talk about. READ MORE >>

Am I the Paul Cherry you're looking for?
Tuesday, January 22nd, 2008I want to do a few posts about the importance of analysing your server logs / website statistics, but in the mean time let me tell you a bit about the referrer data I've been seeing lately.
Firstly, how cool (or scary) is it to see people searching for your name? Granted that I am certainly not the only Paul Cherry in Australia, but I've seen several searches for "paul cherry" coming in on my logs. Am I the Paul Cherry that user was looking for?
Last night I posted some ads for staff we need at Boomerang, and "Paul Cherry, Business Development Manager, Boomerang.com.au" is on the bottom of the advertisements on Seek. Since then I have seen a few visitors coming in from Google who have searched for "paul cherry boomerang". Those ones are definitely looking for me, but why? Maybe they just want to know if I'm a cool guy to work with? Of course I am! Just ask all the people that have worked for me that haven't been fired. Or maybe they were looking for my direct email address to get a leg up? If that's what you've visited for, here's a hot tip: the Seek email comes directly to me anyway.
Here's some more data I've been seeing:
A few hits here and there for how to cook steak and herbs to use with roast lamb, the traffic came in from terms including:
- cooking roast eye fillet steak
- roast lamb with bitter herbs
- how to cook eye fillet steak
- cooking roast lamb
- how to cook steak
- roast lamb herbs
- roast lamb
My post about ABN cancellation has attracted a few other affected Aussie's who are searching for more information:
- abn cancellation
- cancellation of abn
- abn cancellation letter
And with my history of building high quality poker tables and providing my poker table plans on the internet, I am now seeing some traffic for:
- how to build a poker table
- cherry table plans
- making a poker table
- how to make a poker table
Of course, this is just the referrer data, there is so much more to learn from this than just what traffic you got. You can use this data to optimise for the traffic you want to get! Stay tuned for future search engine optimisation posts and I'll teach you how analysing the web statistics you've got will help you get the statistics you want.
At the moment I am using a free web statistics tracker available from http://www.statcounter.com. It's worth noting that the StatCounter website has a prestigious PR10! Clearly from all of the backlinks from people using the system and posts like this saying how good they are!
Update: I just checked the statcounter website, they've lost their PR10! OMG! It's now only a PR9, buy hopefully getting another inbound link from the all-powerful Paul Cherry Blog (currently PR0) will push them back up!

"Three of the satellite songs from Ashley's opera Atalanta (Acts of God) - each inspired or revolving around one of the main characteris of the opera, Max, Willard and Bud. Atalanta (Acts of God) was written in the the 1980s, begin while Ashley was still in production for the television opera, Perfect Lives. The many hours of material were performed throughout the world in many different configurations, but this is the first time these songs have been available on CD.
These are long stories in the tradition of stories that are to be sung, but are too long to be sung without a musical accompaniment. Without the music (and even with the music) people drop out now and then and so they have to hear the story many times for all of the parts finally to come together. I know a lot of stories in that style from my childhood. It's a wonderful way to hear a story. Now, with recording, the story can be heard many times.
The three songs are from the opera Atalanta (Acts of God).
Because Atalanta (Acts of God) is about a myth - one of the oldest European myths, about Atalanta, the fastest and bravest woman on Earth - I felt that the performances of the opera should have a "mythical" quality: no two performances of the opera should ever be the same. (If you are in the audience on Thursday night and a friend goes on Friday night, you and your friend see and hear two different pieces.)
The plot of Atalanta (Acts of God) is complicated and somewhat facetious (involving all sorts of local myths, not-so-high-tech flying saucers that land in the wrong place and at the wrong time, and characters who appear only for a few minutes to sing their songs). The plot, such as it is, is not important to explain here, but it is based on the notion of various singers who are trying to entertain "The Odalisque" (another virtually mythical woman) in her secret sanctum in the harem, the Oda. So the opera is basically about "showing off" by telling stories.
Atalanta (Acts of God) is made up of three operas, all having the same number of scenes, same treatment of voice parts in principal, core scenes and the same duration of the core scenes. All scenes are interchangeable among the three operas. The three operas are titled (in order) "Max," "Willard" and "Bud."
There is a simple image for the relationship and the interchangeability of parts of the three operas, "Max," "Willard" and "Bud." In this image there are three identical solar systems revolving in different planes around a common sun, the Odalisque. (In the story of the opera, Atalanta has become the Odalisque.) The planets (scenes) in the three systems are more or less the same size and speed of rotation, with the same moons and satellites, and so forth. So, you can make up a particular, unique solar system (a performance) by choosing a planet/scene which is the smallest, fastest and nearest to the sun from one opera, a middle-range planet/scene with its moons and satellites from another opera, and choosing a large and remote planet/scene from a third opera. Considering how many planets (scenes) are in each of the three systems, you can make up a large number of unique performances for any occasion.
In the three solar systems, the most distant planets (maybe of uncertain origin and uncertain composition) are not particularly related to the "themes" of the three operas (as expressed in the more complicated "core" scenes). These most distant planets are about the social worlds of the three men.
The Etchings / Max"The Etchings" is the longest scene (the most distant planet) in the opera "Max." "The Etchings" is a dialogue between male and female voices, in which two pages of the collage-novel Une Semaine de Bonté by Max Ernst are described as accurately as I can describe them in words. The collage-novel, 226 pages, is made up of images - we would call them semi-pornographic now - cut from German tabloid newspapers probably around 1934 (the year of publication of the collage-novel) and pasted onto pages of the artist's notebook. Except for epigraphs designating the days of the week (two of which are quoted in the song), the collage-novel is without words. The dialogue of "The Etchings" was written in the spirit of the collage-novel.
Empire / WillardThe "Empire" story is an allegorical telling of the founding of one of the great multinational corporations. The story was told to me by the scion of the family of that corporation. I have changed the names (and the product) to protect the privacy of the source. And I have deliberately made the metaphor (soup) more casual and humorous than the actuality of corporate America. Because the corporation was founded in the years of the Great Depression, I have tried to evoke that era by references to the "extra man"; that is, one of the unemployed and homeless men who drifted across the country in railroad boxcars, trying to find a home and a life.
Younger members of the audience may be puzzled by the notion of homelessness and despair not associated with urban life. But the time of the "extra man" is true and was a desperate time in the making of America.
Au Pair / BudThe "Au Pair" stories were written by Jacqueline Humbert and edited with chorus interjections by Robert Ashley and Jacqueline Humbert. An au pair is a young foreign girl hired by an American family to take care of the kids. Some of Jacqueline Humbert's "Au Pair" stories are literally true. The others are almost true or could be true. The au pairs are still in action today.
I should say, with respect to the Au Pair stories, that the "Bud" in the title of the opera is Bud Powell, the great African-American pianist-composer, who like "Max" (Ernst) and "Willard" (Reynolds) was very important as an inspiration to me as a young man. But I was determined that I would not write anything involving the differences between my white American world and Bud Powell's black American world. And I would not write an African-American story. But, too, I wanted a story that told about a situation in which people living and working together were "separated" in a profound way by their understanding of what the world they were in together meant and how it worked. When Jacqueline Humbert started telling me some of the "Au Pair" stories (she was living in a place where there were a lot of au pairs) I thought this could be a perfect solution: the au pairs have one idea about what is going on and their employers have another."-Lovely Music

UCLA's Turquoise Thompson clipped the eighth hurdle Wednesday, but managed to recover.
Arizona's Georganne Moline, the NCAA Division I leader, stumbled over the ninth hurdle and did not.
As a result, Thompson,a Serra High graduate, not only won her 400-meter hurdles preliminary heat in 55.59 seconds at the NCAA Division I outdoor track and field championships at Drake Stadium in Des Moines, Iowa, but the Bruins junior posted the fastest qualifying time entering Friday's final.
"I tried my best to avoid the situation," Thompson said. "I saw the situation unfolding out of my peripheral vision and I realized (Georganne) was taking a tumble and I was trying to tell myself to pull it together. You hit one hurdle and it can mess up your whole rhythm and mentality."
Thompson, who finished runner-up to Ti'erra Brown of Miami (Fla.) at last year's final by a 55.642 to 55.646 margin, was just off her personal-best 55.53 set June 25, 2011, at the USATF Senior National Championships in Eugene, Ore.
"Everything outside of hitting hurdle No. 8 was good for me," Thompson said. "My hamstring and knees have been hurting again, but it's nothing I can't manage. I definitely feel a lot healthier than I did this time last year."
USC's Josh Mance qualified second in the men's 400 meters in 44.83, with Trojans Joey Hughes (45.41) and Bryshon Nellum (45.45) just missing advancing to the final.
Reggie Wyatt won his 400 hurdles heat for USC in the third-fastest qualifying time
USC advanced to the women's 4 x 100 relay championship, with Loudia Laarman, Aareon Payne, Akawkaw Ndipagbor and Jessica Davis (Highland) clocking 43.94 to secure one of two at-large berths for the final.
USC senior Kristine Busa was eighth in the women's javelin throw with an effort of 161 feet, 3 inches. Alex Collatz took 14th in the women's discus throw (171-7).
UCLA sophomore Matthew Kosecki placed 10th in the discus throw with an effort of 189-5.
The Bruins men's 4 x 100 relay team of Jamal Alston, Maxwell Dyce, R.J. Frasier, Laijon White were 16th in the prelims in 40.01.

We have been coming to Cabo for 11 years. I am currently at the Grand Solmar. We own timeshares at the Playa Grande next door and were eagerly awaiting our extension over to the Grand Solmar having watching its construction.
Starting Monday morning at 10:00am came the hammers and the jackhammers and saws. This is audible for all 11 floors of our building and it lasts until 4:00pm. We asked at the Front Desk and were told it would be done by Tuesday. It is now Wednesday and the saws, jackhammers and screaming drills continue to shake our room.
It is extremely hot this week, and with our deck in full sun with no shade, we either need to leave our room or go into town as the room is unbearable with noise.
If I had known the Grand Solmar was in construction, I would not have used my II points to come here.
The hotel is lovely, the staff is wonderful - but 3 days, 6 hours a day of unrelenting banging and room shaking is difficult to overcome when you cannot even go outside to get away from it.
We eagerly look forward to returning to Cabo in 2013 and staying at our home resort the Playa Grande.

I would've preferred Daniels & Kaz over Wes & Garrett, but I suppose the purpose of Garrett and Wes is to have them turn on Angle & Joe.
James Storm over Kazarian in the opening match with a super kick. This is where James Storm should be, in the opener. It takes great skill to open a card, he should never main event again. Closing is a skill that Storm doesn't have.
RVD retains the X Division Title against Kenny King. In RVD's pre match interview, he mentions his title reigns in the WWE and ECW, I thought that was going to be used to help put Kenny over, but alas, the bloated hasbeen gets the win.
Chavo & Hernandez retain the TNA Tag titles over Joey Ryan & Matt Morgan
@AUSTINMANIA defeated @BULLYNATION in what many are calling the match of the night.
Tara defeated Mickie James to retain the TNA Knockouts Title
Kurt Angle, Samoa Joe, Wes Brisco & Garrett Bischoff defeated Aces & Eights
and the better man won, CHRISTOPHER DEANIELS DEFEATED AJ STYLES AFTER USING THE STYLES CLASH!!!!
Is that really RVD's decision?
If you don't got it, get it! If you don't get it............figure it out!
He probably has it in his over priced contract. I wouldn't mind the constant wins if he was in shape and could still wrestle to the standard, but in the last 2 years RVD's he's gotten out of shape. He's one of the most undeserving people in the last 5 years.
Ok I want to make sure I got this 100% clear. A perfect turn setup in Angle, Joe, Brisco, Bisch Vs A's & 8's and they did not take advantage of it? I think TNA is messing up this Aces and 8's storyling more and more as it goes into it's 6th month.
If we can't protect Pro Wrestling, you can be damned well sure we'll avenge it!
I may agree with this slightly, but it's their biggest storyline right now. A lot of people want to see who's going to be part of the group and who is going to be unmasked next, etc., etc. I think they kind of HAVE to develop it slowly. They are trying to catch up and surpass WWE and need the chatter about who's who to try to draw new fans. Not having Brisco and Bischoff turn could be that many people were expecting it and they are trying to keep people guessing so they changed their idea on the fly. And that may lead to downfall of the whole storyline, but maybe in the end it works out.
They have gone 6 months and haven't revealed a whole lot, yet people are still talking about it. At some point it's going to have to evolve, but in the mean time, I'll enjoy the ride.
yes talking about how long are they gonna milk this. I just want the leader revealed. The guys in masks is fine, but at least reveal the brains behind it. 6 months no leader shown. I only learned recently they have 2 levels. They are not running this right. There is taking your time and flopping, right now TNA is flopping.
If we can't protect Pro Wrestling, you can be damned well sure we'll avenge it!
I really really hope this is the last of the Styles/ Daniels clash we will ever see. They have a match every 3 PPV or something. Enough of it already. But atleast Daniels won this time for a change.
Asia's official representative on OWW
Yeah, I'm bored of AJ/Daniels now, glad Daniels finally got the last laugh. He's done wonders in the last 10 months.

Any Australian can tell you where the outback is. It's out there, somewhere beyond the coastal fringe of the country where most of the population lives, beyond the chic café society of sophisticated cities like Sydney, Melbourne, and Perth, and beyond the green halo of productive farmland that surrounds them. But the outback is more than just a place. It's a state of mind.
A Family Legend
Australia is the world's smallest continent and the world's largest island; the sixth largest nation after Russia, Canada, China, the U.S., and Brazil; and about twice the size of the European Union. It's big, but it's empty: With just a little more than 22 million people, it ranks ahead of Yemen and Mozambique in terms of population, and more than 80 percent of Australians live within 60 miles of the coast.
The first Europeans didn't settle in Australia until 1788, and their exploration of Australia's dry and desolate heartland produced heroic tales of hope and courage, triumph and tragedy. I saw for myself how remote and challenging the outback was in the fuzzy black and white photos and faded Kodachromes taken when my parents drove a 1937 Dodge coupe right across the country, from Adelaide on the south coast to Darwin in the north, in 1955.
The stories of that trip were family legend. Rare heavy rains meant it took eight days to cover the 1,020 miles from Adelaide to Alice Springs, the small town located right in the center of the country. Back then the Stuart Highway, which followed more or less the same route taken by explorer John McDouall Stuart when he made the first successful crossing of the continent in 1862, was little more than a dirt track meandering through the scrub in places. My parents' old Dodge was frequently stuck in the mud.

Recommended Configurations for Migrating to Windows Azure
27 марта 2012 г. 4:47
My company is entertaining the idea of migrating our offering to azure, and really we're infants in this space and not really sure what directly to go to; we've had a profile of the services and the HA offerings etc, set up some test accounts played around, looked at costing. And now in the phase of doing benefit analysis of moving;
27 Standalone applications
8 Web Services
9 Windows Services
16 Databases
To azure.
Though the biggest thing here is, where on earth do you start? what type of configurations are recommended? I can easily just jump on there and order 6 large servers, but i'm thinking that'll be over kill.
Some configuration's I've seen have been;
2 small instances per 1 application, would that be the most accurate method?
Все ответы
27 марта 2012 г. 5:44
Hi ausipr,
Please do not look at cloud from a traditional server space angle. You've to consider the following before you start designing the infrastructure:-
- Plan to fail
- Minimum 2 instances to guarantee availability
- 2 instances - forces your apps to be stateless
- Retry logic need to be built into apps to ensure connectivity to db and storage
- Capacity planning based on performance needs of applications
Unlike traditional hosting setup, Windows Azure is an hands off approach towards infrastructure. Your apps need to be compatible to the platform and you deploy your app via portal. No need to log into server and configure everything. Its a platform based approach towards deployment.
So before you start with Azure, analyze your apps on the points mentioned above and then deploy the applications.
A better approach is to take small steps towards Azure adoption. Move a non business critical app to cloud to get your hands dirty. The lessons will help your team to plan the rest of the migration better.
Cloud Architect
Thanks, Jay

I would suggest starting as small as you can, and working your way up. The larger servers offer more RAM, more CPU cores and more network bandwidth, but you may be better off from a development and management perspective to partition your app among multiple smaller servers. You can easily switch from one instance size to another when you deploy.
Keep in mind that while having multiple apps on a single server is possible, it's not quite the same as running on a dedicated server (for example, SSL certs are visible from one app to another). Also, since local storage isn't persistent, and since blob storage comes with per-transaction costs, your apps may need to adjust accordingly.
Another way to say it is that architecture should come first.

The Drowsy Chaperone (Don Ward)
Updated: 05/20/2013 - Two weekends left to catch one great show!
The White House says President Barack Obama is canceling campaign appearances in Northern Virginia on Monday and Colorado on Tuesday so he can monitor Hurricane Sandy. The storm is currently forecast to make landfall along the Eastern seaboard at that time.
Obama is still scheduled to make campaign visits to Orlando, Fla., and Youngstown, Ohio Monday before returning to the White House. Other changes to the campaign schedule will be announced as warranted.
The White House says Obama is being regularly updated on the storm. He has directed his team to work to bring all available resources needed by state and local governments preparing for the storm, which could affect a third of the country with high winds, heavy rains and flooding.
