"The ecosystem has flourished to enable both public and private cloud adoption, allowing companies to offer differentiated products and services. I'm pleased to be a part of Cloud Expo and help to shape an industry that is changing the face of IT."

Alvarez appeared on Bloomberg TV and was recognized for her research through articles and quotes in publications such as CNNMoney, Wall Street Journal, Reuters, and Investor's Business Daily. She is a frequent speaker at tech conferences and is sought after for her thought leadership on the evolving IT ecosystem.

IT data is typically silo'd by the various tools in place. Unifying all the log, metric and event data in one analytics platform stops finger pointing and provides the end-to-end correlation. Logs, metrics and custom event data can be joined to tell the holistic story of your software and operations. For example, users can correlate code deploys to system performance to application error codes. In his session at DevOps Summit, Michael Demmer, VP of Engineering at Jut, will discuss how this can...

The basic integration architecture, as defined by ESBs, hasn't changed for more than a decade. Most cloud integration providers still rely on an ESB architecture and their proprietary connectors. As a result, enterprise integration projects suffer from constraints of availability and reliability of these connectors that are not re-usable across other integration vendors. However, the rapid adoption of APIs and almost ubiquitous availability of APIs amongst most SaaS and Cloud applications are ra...

Overgrown applications have given way to modular applications, driven by the need to break larger problems into smaller problems. Similarly large monolithic development processes have been forced to be broken into smaller agile development cycles. Looking at trends in software development, microservices architectures meet the same demands.

Zaire army holds MPs
Thursday 25 February 1993
The soldiers said they wanted the opposition-dominated legislature to approve the use of new banknotes which sparked riots last month in which hundreds of people were killed. Earlier, Zaire's army chiefs said they did not recognise a transitional constitution laid down last year by a pro-democracy conference. They said they would respect the document only if it was promulgated by President Mobutu Sese Seko - something he has refused to do.

Flickr Hive Mind is a data mining tool for the Flickr database of photography. Flickr Hive Mind is a search engine as well as an experiment in the power of Folksonomies. All thumbnail images come directly
from Flickr, none are stored on Flickr Hive Mind. These photos
are bound by the copyright and license of their owners, the thumbnail links take to you to the photos
(as well as their copyright and license details) within Flickr. Because some other search engines (Google, etc.) index parts of
Flickr Hive Mind, you may have been led here from one of them. Welcome to Flickr Hive Mind, almost certainly the best search engine for photography on the web. If you are a Flickr
user and use Flickr Stats you
may have seen people being led to your photos via Flickr Hive Mind (as a Referrer).
Flickr requires that I inform you that Flickr Hive Mind uses the Flickr API, but is neither endorsed nor certified by them.
There are literally hundreds of other web tools built around the Flickr API, see
Flickr Bits for a bunch of examples.
If you are unhappy with your photos' presence on this site, you can (a)
make your photos private for yourself, friends, and family. These settings will be instantly honored by
Flickr Hive Mind and all other API-driven applications. (b) Hide your photos globally from text and tag searches on 3rd party sites that use the Flickr API, via your preference settings on Flickr. See the privacy tab at:
http://flickr.com/account/. To also remove yourself from searches for specific user names, you will need to set your Flickr profile to be hidden from searches. Flickr has finally created a single page with all these settings, this is much easier to do now and is the preferred method - it will shut down all API driven sites.
(c) Finally, you can
Banish Yourself
From Flickr Hive Mind. To banish yourself from Flickr Hive Mind, you must first authenticate to Flickr, which lets Flickr Hive Mind identify who you are. Once logged in, come back to this area
and there will be a link to banish you. If there are any problems email me at nosflickrhivemind ... at ... fiveprime ... dot ... org. (a few people with weird characters in their user names may have had problems)Log In To Flickr Now

Dwyane Wade Dominates Flamingo Senior Rec League, Miami Kiwanis Club In Lockout Ad
Gotta keep the skills sharp somewhere.
via YouTube
The gritty rooftop "Miami Kiwanis Club League" might be every bit as much a fantasy as the idea of seeing The Heatles destroy the NBA again before Christmastime -- but damn if it doesn't look like a hell of a fun game.
Dwyane Wade dominates for a "Little Havana" team in a new Jordan ad debuted during the World Series last night, and with the lockout in full swing, he's also got time to blow through the Flamingo Senior Center Rec League and to be a ringer for the Sanitation Department for the Dade County Municipal League. Check it out.
The ad also features Chris Paul keepin his game sharp in the Bayou Women's League and Carmelo Anthony blocking bearded hipsters in a Williamsburg pickup game before fist-bumping a Hasidic coach in a Jewish Under-40 league.
To be honest, this ad is already the best part of the lockout.
Now if anyone needs any players for that rooftop Kiwanis club game, we've got a few 5' 10", moderately out of shape ballers at Riptide always looking for a game. Just saying.

At the time of purchase I was desperate because my previous fridge/freezer was destroyed in a flood. There were many other residents with the same problem and supplies were short. I bought my refrigerator based primarily on the excellent reputation of Maytag products and haven't been disappointed. I love it! First time I have had a bottom freezer drawer but the improved accessibility and visibility is wonderful. The fridge design, especially the Deli drawer and large and smaller fresh produce drawers are so convenient. The fresh filter works very well. I also like the split fold-back shelf that makes room for taller containers. Water dispenser and ice cube maker is very efficient. I wondered at first about the shallow shelf on the water dispenser but, it's not a problem. The door seal between the French doors seals in the cold. All in all - there's nothing at all to complain about! Good job. I'm a Maytag convert! Thank you.

This fridge is like the pair of high heels you just had to have but kill your feet when you walk on them ! It is very attractive exterior wise but inside it is poorly designed. I picked it because I only had 30 inches in width to work with. There are too few options for adjusting the shelves and door compartments. There is only room for one gal of milk on the door and most tall items like juice and wine won't fit. You cannot fit even a bottle of water on the top shelf and just forget about a jar of pickles or tomato sauce ! If you do adjust that top shelf, the space to the second shelf reduces to about 5 inches -- useless. The freezer compartment is okay but the ice compartment takes up a lot of space. Less space for ice and larger freezer component would be more useful.

Great refrigerator
By happy shopper
from Latham,NY
I love my new French door refrigerator. Very roomy despite smaller size, love the interior lighting & moveable door shelves (strong boxes)
Horrible refrigerator
By Foot Lake
from Willmar, MN
I purchased this frig a month ago an am very very disappointed.1. Poor shelf adjustment2. Water dispenser dispenses warm water3. Can get half as much in it compared to former frig that was the same size - both freezer and frig4. Hard to get things in and out of the frig4.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
Perfect Size
By Tim the Mowerman
from Citra, FL
So happy with this fridge. Love the drawer freezer. This is just what we always wanted in a fridge.
Generally happy
By Trish
from East Meadow, NY
The refrigerator broke after three weeks. the repairman said that the part that broke was not a common problem, I just lucked out. Since then I am totally enjoying my new refrigerator and love the French doors and water dispenser. The freezer is a little smaller than what I had previously but I have adjusted to that without a problem. I love the long narrow drawer for cheese and cold cuts.
Nice appliance
By Jerry
from Orem
We recently purchased this appliance. We have enjoyed this front opening frige. We were told when we purchased is that it had a digital temperature reader in the front panel that would replace the awkward temperature setting dials inside. What we found instead was an awkward setter on the front. Instead of an actual temperature reading, you select the number of ice stars for your settings. Obviously a misinformed salesman an usual. Otherwise we like it. We enjoy the from water discharge function.
Nice French door fridge
By Roevan
from Marine City, MI
We like the roominess, the freezer on the bottom with drawers, and the extra inside drawers for the refrigerator portion of this model. We do not care for the "clunkiness" of the moisture barrier bar between the two French doors. Overall, a really nice refrigerator/freezer.
Unhappy with my Maytag
By cb/sb
from Utah
The first frig I got had a broken water line to the water filter. Days later they exchanged that one with another. That one also had the same problem. Now I am waiting for the part to come in. It's been 3 weeks now and no working frig. I Emailed Maytag and they never responded to my Email.
Working Great as Promised
By jimbo47

Everything I was expecting, except shelving height is not as convenient as I had hoped for.
Great product
By rahale
from Pettisville, OH
This refrigerator fits perfectly in my "smaller" space as I was having a difficult time finding a refrigerator I liked that fit in my space. Already saving on my monthly electric bill. Would like the refrig doors to open a little wider. Otherwise, loving it.

O God, who by sin art offended and by penance pacified, mercifully regard the prayers of Thy people making supplication unto Thee,and turn away the scourges of Thine anger which we deserve for our sins. Almighty and Everlasting God, in whose Hand are the power and the government of every realm: look down upon and help the Christian people that the heathen nations who trust in the fierceness of their own might may be crushed by the power of thine Arm.

Food For Thought
"The legalization of the termination of pregnancy is none other than the authorization given to an adult, with the approval of an established law, to take the lives of children yet unborn and thus incapable of defending themselves. It is difficult to imagine a more unjust situation, and it is very difficult to speak of obsession in a matter such as this, where we are dealing with a fundamental imperative of every good conscience — the defense of the right to life of an innocent and defenseless human being."
- St. John Paul II
A bit more food for thought…
"Only one sin is nowadays severely punished: the attentive observance of the traditions of our Fathers. For that reason the good ones are thrown out of their places and brought to the desert."

For your consideration…
"One of the most dangerous errors is that civilization is automatically bound to increase and spread. The lesson of history is the opposite; civilization is a rarity, attained with difficulty and easily lost. The normal state of humanity is barbarism, just as the normal surface of the planet is salt water. Land looms large in our imagination and civilization in history books, only because sea and savagery are to us less interesting."
- C.S. Lewis

Those who identify themselves with the people, have confidence in them, cherish and consider them as the most honest and safe, although not the most wise depositary of the public interests."

Prized for its taste and texture, the morel mushroom grows wild in many areas of the United States. This quality fungus emerges naturally in the springtime along sections of decomposing trees and rich, loamy patches of soil.

Carl Crawford admits he likely pushed himself too soon following wrist surgery
Mar 3, 2012, 2:30 PM EDT
Carl Crawford was shut down and put on anti-inflammatory medication yesterday after suffering a setback with his surgically-repaired left wrist. The high-priced outfielder told Scott Lauber of the Boston Herald this morning that the setback was likely the result of pushing himself too soon, especially after participating in bunting drills.
"Bunting didn't help it," he said. "Pretty sure just what I've been doing over the course of the week, bunting and swinging and throwing and just doing all the activities probably didn't make it no better. The bunting, that was the final thing that probably took it over the edge."
Crawford took one-handed swings in the batting cage this morning and hopes to resume two-handed swings "pretty soon," possibly within the next couple of days.
Crawford still hopes to be ready for Opening Day, but the expectation following surgery was that he would miss at least the first few weeks of the season. This setback, however minor, renders his goal even more unrealistic. Offseason acquisitions Ryan Sweeney and Cody Ross project to start in the corner outfield spots until he is ready to return.

"… bunting, that was the final thing that probably took it over the edge."
It makes you wonder just how bad is that wrist.
If I'm a card carrying member of the Nation I'm worried. It seems that he pressed too hard last season to live up to his contract which lead to a sub par year. Now he pushes too hard gets injured then pushes to return to quickly and makes things worse. While it's laudable that he feels the need to play you wonder if the expectations of the new contract, .. added to the sub par year, .. added to this injury and setback will start haring a cumulative effect.
He needs to take a step back, .. and be patient. This is the kind of injury that if not dealt with correctly could easily become a season long issue, .. resulting in another sub par year more self imposed pressure, .. to say nothing of how the Nation is going to react if he starts late and poorly. It's not going to get better if they start booing him every time he comes to the plate.
Unless RS handle this correctly this could effectively wad up another season for Crawford. You'd think they'd take better care of their 140 Mil investment. After the Elisbury debacle a couple of seasons ago you have to wonder whether it's the players or the organization.
- 24missed - Mar 4, 2012 at 9:02 PM
Thanks Harold.
Easy to lavish all the negativity towards Carl Crawford? Too many RS 'fans' I know exhibit this behavior. They call out a guy that actually cared, worked hard and took accountability. Stating the obvious, he did have the non-Carl Crawford aberration of a year, last year. He knows that better than anyone.
I am so grateful to have a hard working guy on the team. This guy was just starting to swing. Just given the green light to start some swinging, not a lot of it. The next day he felt soreness and I believe, it was either that day or the next, Bobby V. had him bunting like crazy. That's when he had the setback.
Harold, you hit the nail on the head. I really don't care how much Carl Crawford gets paid. It is a non-issue for me and out of my hands. The RS organization, however, ought to care more about the players if they want production for their money.
- chiadam - Mar 3, 2012 at 2:55 PM
Carl Soriano is right. Bunting probably didn't make it no better. Hopefully stealing $140 million is good for the wrist.

Toronto ranks as fourth best in the world for life and work
Toronto scored high marks for quality of life and stable national politics. Ease of commute, not so much.
|Report an Error
Share via Email
Quality of life and a stable political environment help make Toronto the fourth most attractive place in the world in which to live and work, according to a new report from consulting firm PwC.
But traffic congestion is one factor that pulled Toronto down a peg from its third-place position in 2012.
The study, called Cities of Opportunity, ranks 30 cities around the world on what it takes to be a well-balanced place to live and work, including education and technology, quality of life and the natural environment.
London took the top spot in the ranking for the first time, stepping ahead of second-place New York. Singapore rounded out the top three.
Toronto has many positive qualities and the potential to emerge as a hub of innovation, said Raj Kothari, GTA managing partner at PwC.
The rankings slip is driven by the challenge Toronto faces on gridlock and congestion, he said.
"Though we have outstanding models of public transportation and in the safety and reliability of that system, our problems are ease of commute and traffic congestion," Kothari said.
"That is going to be the challenge for Toronto and for that we will need collaboration between city, business and community leaders."
Toronto's lack of downtown access to Pearson International Airport, for instance, was among the factors that pulled it down in the survey.
The Union Pearson Express, the rail link between Union Station and the airport, is scheduled to open next summer.
"In a year's time, we will have that gateway access," Kothari noted. "I don't know if that will be enough to pull us back to third or not."
The estimated annual cost of congestion in the Greater Toronto-Hamilton area in 2006 was $6 billion, according to a study released last year by Metrolinx.
Toronto also received low grades for overall technology readiness. That's defined as Internet access in schools, broadband quality, software development and digital economy.
These variables are important because, taken together, they affect the city's growth and ability to attract foreign investments and business, PwC said.
Toronto's strengths included the ease of doing business and its relatively stable national political environment.
The city also garnered high marks for sociopolitical stability, health care, culture and natural environment, education and infrastructure. Taken together, these indicate overall quality of life, PwC said.
Toronto placed second behind first-place Stockholm for health, safety and security.
The study, published every two years, is based on public data from organizations such as the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund, national statistical organizations and commercial data providers. Data was collected during the last half of 2013. It was supplemented by a global internal survey of approximately 3,000 PwC staff from each city listed in the report.

President Obama has responded to 32 separate petitions calling for gun control reform in the wake of the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting in Newtown, Conn.
The petitions starting appearing on the We the People website almost immediately after news of the rampage broke last Friday, and they range in topic from mental health reform to gun control legislation. More extreme petitions call for putting a gun in every classroom and, conversely, repealing the Second Amendment.
The president addressed the petitions in a YouTube video posted to the official White House channel earlier Friday, with a clear message to the hundreds of thousands who signed those petitions: "We hear you."
"It's encouraging that many gun owners have stepped up this week to say there are steps we can take to prevent more tragedies like the one in Newtown," Obama said. "Steps that both protect our rights and protect our kids."
In a press conference on Wednesday, Obama already called on Congress to pass a number of laws he would push through, which include banning the sale of military-style weapons and high-capacity ammunition clips and requiring background checks for anyone who wants to purchase a gun. He also appointed Vice President Joe Biden to head a committee to come up with proposals by January and promises to push them in Congress.
Bruce Reed, the vice president's chief of staff, worked with Biden before to pass the ban on assault weapons and Brady Handgun Violence Prevention Act, felt the need to respond personally to the petitioners.
"An issue this serious and complex isn't going to be resolved with a single legislative proposal or policy prescription," Reed wrote. "And let's be clear, any action we take will respect the Second Amendment."
The president doesn't list specific goals he didn't already cover in the press conference, but he notes that if he is to succeed, he needs suppoert.
"Ultimately if this effort is to succeed it's going to require the help of the American people—it's going to require all of you," Obama said.
