Paris Hotel Place des Vosges
History of Place des Vosges.
The Place des Vosges square was originally named Place Royale, then Place de Fédérés on 19th August, 1792; Place de de l'Indivisibilité, on 4th July, 1793; Place des Vosges on 26th Fructidor year VIII; Place Royale, on 27th April, 1814 ; Place des Vosges on 14th March, 1848, and Place Royale from 1852 to 1870. The north side of the garden is called Rue des Vosges. Origins of the name: Named in the year VIII because the Vosges department was the first to pay its taxes. Victor Hugo lived at number 6, Place des Vosges, for nearly 16 years.
This is one of the most beautiful squares in Paris, which, today, is home to many artists and art galleries.
Architecture of the Place des Vosges.
The square is presented as a homogenous unit, with its near square design, 127 by 140 meters, surrounded by 2-story residential buildings made out of red brick and white limestone quoins, and very steep blue slate roofs, with small-paned windows. Indeed, a royal edict of the 17th century, imposed the unity of the composition and the height of the buildings, with the exception of the Pavilion of the King, in the center of the south side (the highest of all) and the Pavilion of the Queen, on the opposite north side, which are were purposely built higher.
At the center of the Place des Vosges is the tree-lined Louis XIII square, with four fountains in the center of the lawns and an equestrian statue of Louis XIII. This statue by Jean-Pierre Cortot and Charles Dupaty was erected in 1825. The first statue dating from 1639 was destroyed during the French Revolution.
The four fountains, fed by the Ourcq canal, were also designed by Jean-Pierre Cortot.

Half-time: Jeff Hendrick on target as Derby County lead Sheffield Wednesday 1-0
Posted: February 09, 2013|
A FINE goal from Jeff Hendrick has given Derby County a 1-0 half-time lead over Sheffield Wednesday at Hillsborough.
The midfielder finished off an excellent team move in the 23rd minute to open the scoring.
Jake Buxton was handed a return to the Rams starting line-up after two months out with a knee injury.
Buxton was initially named among the substitutes but Mark O'Brien's withdrawal during the warm-up - due to a knee problem - forced manager Nigel Clough to make a ate change, with Michael Hoganson added to the bench.
Derby's starting line-up was otherwise unchanged from the 3-0 win ovetr Huddersfield Town.
The visitors started brightly and Jamie Ward tested Chris Kirkland with little over 30 seconds on the clock.
Ward's dipping effort from 20 yards was on target but Kirkland did well to push the ball away from danger with a diving one-handed save.
At the other end, Kieran Lee sent a glancing header straight at Adam Legzdins from a right-wing cross in the fourth minute.
The pace of the game was frenetic, making for an often scrappy opening.
However, Derby took a 23rd-minute lead with a well-worked goal.
Will Hughes found Craig Bryson on the left and he passed inside to Hendrick.
The newly-capped Republic of Ireland international latched on to the ball, exchanged passes with Ward on the edge of the box and slid a low shot wide of the advancing Kirkland.
Wednesday's new loan signing Connor Wickham had started on the bench but the England Under-21 striker was brought on for his debut shortly after the half-hour, replacing Kieran Lee.
Michail Antonio's curling effort from 20 yards was comfortably held by Legzdins, who was largely untroubled before the half-time whistle blew.

Winning new business is critical to the growth and prosperity of any organization. Some companies even obsess about it (at the expense of their existing clients). But let's be clear - not all clients are created equal. Indeed, some can be have incredibly negative effects on your business, eating up resources and profitability at the same time. Saying no to a prospective client isn't easy, but in some cases is the best form of action. With that in mind, I've put together a list of five circumstances that suggest your prospective client could well suck!
1. When everything is super urgent!
You know the type. They're the client that think they're your immediate number one priority, despite the fact they haven't paid you a dollar. Everything needs to be done yesterday. Which tends to be a sign of internal chaos/crisis. What's more, their urgency hints at the fact that they see SEO as the quick fix to their problems. And as we all know, SEO certainly isn't a quick fix. Steer clear of urgent guy!
2. When you're played off against a snake oil salesman
You've submitted your quote. But the client is now asking why your prices are so high when compared to this other guy that guarantees page one rankings within 2 weeks... for a couple of hundred bucks. At which point you should cut your losses and walk away. You'll never win this one! Cheapskate guy simply doesn't value the service you're offering. Let him learn the hard way that you get what you pay for.
3. When their business just plain sucks
Some people's business ideas just suck. Or their execution is poor. In short, they have no chance of success. Which means you have no real chance of success either. Because even if you get traffic to the site, it won't convert. Which means the client will inevitably run out of money, point the finger at you or cut the SEO program off. Either way, you lose. Ignore bad idea guy and work with someone that you can share real success with.
4. When they pull a Houdini
Everyone gets busy, especially at work. But if your prospective client is constantly pulling a disappearing act, the warning bells should be ringing. If you find it hard to get in contact with a new client at the start of the relationship, what do you think it's going to be like working with them in an ongoing capacity? Incredibly frustrating! Particularly when you're trying to get their approval for something. If Houdini guy wants better search rankings, let him use his magic tricks...
5. When your business ethics clash
Some people are squeaky clean. Others will do anything for a buck. Personally I'm a squeaky clean kinda guy. So it's best that I don't team up with dodgy operators, because my conscious doesn't allow me to implement tactics which I believe are fundamentally wrong or unethical. Black hats and white hats rarely see eye-to-eye. Which means you won't work well together. If you're at one end of the ethics spectrum, it's probably best you avoid teaming up with those at the other.
What are your warning signs?
So that's my top 5 warning signs that your SEO prospect may suck. What criteria do you use to screen and filter new clients? If you think I've missed something, chime in via the comments below.
I'm an online marketing strategist currently working for one of Australia's largest online agencies. I consult with our clients to develop holistic web strategies, while also managing the SEO and social media elements of the business.
19 Responses to "Five signs your new SEO client may suck"
Another warning sign: When they try and piggy-back a friend's project onto their own. They begin asking you for advice about their friend's site, or other projects of their own, but you aren't getting paid to take on several sites, only one. It becomes the free school of SEO at that point.
Thank you for this article. We should all learn to stop wasting our energy on some clients. I wish I read this a few years ago when I was a beginner. It would save my time and money.
I love your post! I particularly love the Houdini thing – i just hope we will not have a client like that. And you know what sucks the greatest if the client pulls a Houdini stunt when payment time…
But hey, i love all my client… Houdini or not!
.-= Zarah recently posted: Hire a VA Now! =-.
I think of the signs is that when they want to pay only at the end of the work when they see all of results. We had a lot of clients, who wouldn't stick around to actually see the long term results from organic SEO and wouldn't pay for work completed. These days we only work with businesses who have long term goals in mind and after we explained to them clearly what organic SEO is and what risks are associated with it.
.-= Roman recently posted: Ignite Toronto 4 2010 Videos =-.
Ha! These are great. Let's add to that:
When your client wants to pay you less than you charge, because "after this, I have six other great ideas for web sites that I'll need your services for"…
"We don't like too much text on our pages"
"I just want to be found for my name"
.-= Alan Bleiweiss recently posted: Blueglass Florida 2AM Pizza – Plus Save 15 Percent =-.
The client that insists that you work with their current web developer that is their mothers, cousins, sisters, brothers, special friend… who "knows a little bit about SEO" so it should be good.
OMG yes! As soon as I hear that, I lose all my sanity
.-= Alan Bleiweiss recently posted: Blueglass Florida 2AM Pizza – Plus Save 15 Percent =-.
This is a really good article. However, I noticed that "conscience" is spelled "conscious" in the fifth paragraph.
I have another type to discuss here: the one that E-Mails you more than 20 E-Mails in an hour full of questions about SEO, corrections for SEO already performed on the site, and their own recommendations for implementing SEO when such recommendations are at least 5 years old and are in no way current. And they still end up stopping the service. And I do mean all of that in one…single…client. XO
#6 When the client becomes paper intensive, weekly reports, monthly reports, and worse backgrounders on everything in writing. By the time you get done do your term papers there is no time to pick up the phone and call anyone for anything except to order more paper and cartridges for your printer.
One that wants you to work for commission based on increased sales. And insists that their product/service/business model is better than anyone else and you should take their word for it…. right?
And I'm with everyone else – people whose son/daughter/nephew/random family member knows a bit about this stuff……
[…] Five signs your new SEO client may suck, Search Engine People […]
James, I agree with all your points.
George, your #6 should be added as well. You're so busy making out reports that you don't have any time to spend on the actual SEO work.
Thanks for the interesting post!
.-= Steve recently posted: Google Comparison Ads – My Opinion =-.
Here, I am a web copywriter and I totally agree with your sign #1. I add that very often, you can tell from the 1st words of the 1st conversation by phone :
"This project is SOOOO URGENT. We neeeeed you to work on this right now. It's ONLY A FEW THINGS and it woooon't take long at all, you'll see."
Well, it ALWAYS takes some time when you start a project if you want to understand and do it well. What you'll see is that if you take this client, within a week you will be overwhelmed by little-projects-few-things that will suck all energy out of you and bring very-few-money-too. And your company will finish like an old rotten and wrinkled apple…
Thanks everyone for chiming in. Definitely a lot of worthwhile additions here. I'm pretty sure we could make a top 10 list now!
[…] James Duthie on October 4, 2010 Late last week I published a post over at Search Engine People about SEO clients that suck. In particular, I identified five behaviours that may indicate a new […]
All these apply to seo…but actually a lot of them apply to any kind of freelance work. I've experienced most of them. Number 3 is my favourite – both you and can get sucked in by the client's enthusiasm for their project and never take the time to sit down and think 'this is not going to work because it is a dreadful business that no one is going to use'.
I've also worked for the number 5's and find it uncomfortable to promote products or services that are veering on being a scam.
[…] on October 15, 2010 A couple of weeks back I wrote a post outlining five signs that a prospective SEO client may suck. It proved to be pretty damn popular. But I did feel a little guilty about taking the sledge hammer […]
How about, not getting paid on time? That's a big warning sign and a pain in the side!
.-= Susan recently posted: Seo Toaster CMS Product =-.
Apart from those mentioned above, I find two types of clients from whom you should just run:
1)One who always brag about half-cooked seo knowledge and argue with you over each and every aspect even keyword research
2)Those who want guaranteed rankings which as we all know seo profession can never guarantee.

The Art of the Deal Workshop, part of the Charles Evans Gerber Transactional Studies Center, explores the lawyer's role in structuring and implementing business transactions to create value, manage business risk, and promote client interests in a complex legal and regulatory environment. Building on principles explored in the Deals course, workshop participants are asked to engage in negotiation and drafting exercises that put the theory to the test. We draw on modern negotiation theory to explore the tension between value creation and value division and to examine different methods of negotiation and persuasion. The objective is to improve our ability to identify and effectively address recurring problems in deal structuring and negotiations. Significant attention is paid to all aspects of the writing process, including drafting term sheets,working with forms, writing emails and formal and informal memoranda for clients, and drafting contract language, as well as structuring and negotiating business transactions. Experienced corporate lawyers participate in some of the classes to add additional perspectives to the course.
One section of this workshop, The Art of the Deal and Transactional Legal Strategies, explores the lawyer's role in structuring and implementing business deals to create value, manage business risks, and promote client interests in a complex legal and regulatory environment.
Another section, The Art of the Deal in Mergers and Acquisitions, focuses on transactions in the field of mergers and acquisitions and includes a variety of public company and private deals. This section is taught by two partners from the firm of Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz.
Since instructors vary in their approach and focus to this course, students are advised to review all sections and the range of topics offered.

Isaac Ginis , URI Graduate School of Oceanography.
Dr. Isaac Ginis, Professor of Oceanography at the University of Rhode Island discusses the impact of climate change on hurricanes. He has an international reputation as a leading expert in numerical modeling and forecasting of air-sea interaction during hurricanes. Dr. Ginis is actively involved in both the U.S. and international tropical cyclone research and forecast communities. He has published over 70 papers in scientific journals and books on this topic and authored a chapter on hurricane-ocean interaction for the book "Global Perspectives on Tropical Cyclones" published by the World Meteorological Organization, Geneva, Switzerland in 1995. His ground-breaking work in developing a coupled hurricane-ocean interaction model has led to significant improvement in hurricane forecasting. The U.S. National Weather Service has embraced this model and made it operational for the National Hurricane Center in 2001 in the Atlantic basin. In 2004, the model was implemented for the eastern Pacific basin and, in 2007, for global tropical cyclone forecasting by the U.S. Navy.
Dr. Ginis is a recipient of several national awards, including the 2001 NOAA Outstanding Scientific Paper Award, the 2002 National Oceanographic Partnership Program Excellence Award.

It seems that debugger breakpoint messages of the "/* Breakpoint at

variety are themselves request messages, and as such, I'm getting
them in my new F9 retrieval-stream. But they're evidently filtered

What is the best way to filter these (and perhaps others I don't

Hi Ian,

If not, I wondered if you might fancy forwarding the issue to the local paper. It's the sort of quirky story they might be able to help with.
I've drafted an email for you: do feel free to edit or overwrite it - or ignore it completely, of course.
Good luck!

A worker passes an advertisement in the New York Subway in this September 24, 2012 file photo. US Representative Mike Honda, a Democrat from California, called on October 10, 2012. (AFP PHOTO / TIMOTHY A. CLARY/FILES)
WASHINGTON: A US lawmaker called Wednesday for a boycott of Washington's Metro system over a controversial advertisement by a pro-Israel group that describes Muslim radicals as "savages."
The advertisements, which have also run on trains in New York and buses in San Francisco, went up this week at four stations in the US capital area after a federal judge ruled that the group enjoyed a right to free speech.
Citing security concerns, the operator of the Metro had sought to delay the billboards, which read: "In any war between the civilized man and the savage, support the civilized man. Support Israel. Defeat Jihad."
Representative Mike Honda, a Democrat from California, said he supported the US Constitution's guarantee of free speech and understood the court order for the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority to run the advertisements.
"The right to not support hate speech is also a right, which is why I encourage people to boycott, if possible, WMATA until the ad buy is finished. We do not have to support hate speech," Honda said in a statement.
Honda, who as a child was interned at a camp due to his Japanese ancestry, said he took the issue "very personally" as he remembered during World War II the "hateful billboards and caricatures that equated Japanese Americans to savages."
"We learn from history that hate speech and hysteria have dire consequences, the result of societal complacency, failed political leadership and the lack of courage to stand up and speak out against hate," he said.
Pamela Geller, executive director of the American Freedom Defense Initiative, the group that is running the advertisements, rejected charges that the language of the billboards impugned the character of all Muslims.
"The ad mentions jihad. It is asking people to oppose those who commit jihad attacks against innocent civilians, and those who celebrate the attackers as heroes," she said.
"All jihad terrorists are Muslims, but not all Muslims are jihad terrorists. So why should any Muslim who opposes jihad feel his character impugned?" she said.
Geller has been criticized by the Anti-Defamation League, the most prominent US group fighting anti-Semitism, which has accused her of "virulent anti-Muslim bigotry and conspiracy theories."
Seeking the delay, the Metro operator had voiced concern about running the billboards in the wake of anti-US attacks in the Islamic world that followed the release of an amateurish video that mocked Islam.

LornaLAB in collaboration with Reykjavik Art Museum hosts its third workshop this year, moderated by artist Halldor Ulfarsson. The workshop will focus on the theme of neurosignalling with introductions from various speakers including Deepa Lyengar at MindGames.
Neurosignalling is a science that aims to perfect the use of brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) in order to manipulate computer-controlled devices using the human brain. These BCIs "read" brainwaves through electroencelography (EEG) in order to create an interface that allows command of the desired device through the mind. (EEG is the recording of electrical activity along the scalp, measuring voltage fluctuations resulting from ionic current flows within the neurons of the brain). Neurosignaling has offered new possibilities for both the scientific community and the creative industry at large. With new and cheaper products on the market, both artists and computer game programmers are increasingly experimenting with the technique with interesting results.
Deepa Lyengar will introduce new developments at Mindgames (www.mindgames.is), who have evolved computer games controlled with the mind. Afterwards, artist Halldór Úlfarsson will bring an EEG recorder for participants to try out and introduce his own interest in the technique for artistic means.
LornaLAB is a newly founded (late summer 2010) forum for the creative use of technology. Its current function is information, resource and inspiration sharing which has taken the form of lectures, fieldtrips and workshops in its short life to date. Among its members are industrial designers, art theorists, computer scientists, AI researchers, music theorists and new media artists to name a few. For further information visit: www.reykjavikmedialab.is . The workshop is free of charge and open to everyone.

Good morning fisherman!!!
So here's the latest scoop, the bluefish are in, the toothy blue assassins are flushing out the mackerel making them harder to find, which only makes the live mackerel more valuable for people trying to live line for stripers.
There are plenty of squid around as we had a mate fill a bucket while sittin on one of our docked vessels two nights ago. Calamari for dinner!! Live lining squid like stated last week can be a very effective striper method if done at the proper time ( which is later at night with a moving tide).
It is absolutely the time to be slinging eels at night for stripers as the water temperature continues to rise, use a small live line hook, hooking the eel through the lower jaw and out an eye ball, it is important to get the eel in the water as quickly as possible as they will entangle themselves very quickly, it is also very important to hook through an eyeball that way the eel stays alive and presents a much better meal ( will present diagram below).
Flounder fishing continues to be good, with good fishing off of Niles beach. If you are new to the saltwater fishing scene come down and sign up for a harbor adventure tour! they run Friday and Saturday's from 4:30 – 8:00 pm. These trips focus on stripers, mackerel, flounder and other inshore species. Let us do the driving and fish finding!
New Feature: Tyler From Yankee Fleet's Gloucester MA Fishing Report
Tyler writes-
Based on what I've heard and seen, there are COPIOUS amounts of squid around and many people are catching them for dinner while others are fishing them for big stripers at night. Use a yo-zuri squid jig and look for pilings with bright light once it gets dark as the light brings them in.
I have had many customers coming in buying seaworms saying that the flounder bite is still very hot. sandy bottoms per usual are the best places to find them. The dogbar was "loaded" with flounder I heard from two customers who quickly bought a dozen worms to head back out there. If you're looking for stripers with this warm weather, the water temperature will be rising and as the summer progresses you will have to change your fishing times to early in the morning and later at night as they will be heading to deeper, cooler water during the day as the summer heats up, but for now there are still mackerel around the groaner. Using sabiki's is still catching striper candy. If surf fishing from the rocks, fish the white water for the big linesider of the season.
No word on bluefish, but with the water temps heating up its only a matter of time. Come down to the tackle shop at 121 east main street to get all the tackle and information you need, and if we don't have what you are looking for we are more than happy to order it for you!

hi joey
here is a video and a couple of pics i took on Saturday from aboard the Yankee Fleet fishing boat. we left shore right next door to your warehouse under threatening and mysterious skies! it was strange because it was so hot out, but at times the sky had a very 'wintery' look.
no matter what the weather, the trip turned out well, my nephew Adam caught the largest fish of the trip, an 11 pound cod, and was thrilled to win $100 and a free trip. my thanks to the crew of the Yankee Fleet for making it a great and safe trip!

The Scene Leaving Work Wednesday Night
Long days down the wharf this time of year. Working every day is starting to take a toll on me mentally but I try not to think about all the time away from my girls too much or it tends to really eat at me. You gotta grind it out this time of year and I know that. At least I took a half a second to snap this pretty shot before heading home.

opinionBy Chris Agabi
Lagos — By the end of this month, works on the eleven airports undergoing remodeling across the country under the phase one airports remodeling efforts would have been completed.
The rehabilitation programme commenced last year with the cost of N19 billion. The second phase of the remodeling exercise is expected to commence in June with another N19 billion.
Some of the airports being remodeled in the first phase are the Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Lagos; Nnamdi Azikiwe Intenational Airport, Abuja; Sam Mbakwe Airport, Owerri; Yola Airport and Benin Airport.
Last week, the Minister for Aviation Princess Stella Oduah inspected the progress of work done in some of the airports. She inspected work in Benin, Kano, Owerri, Abuja and Lagos airports. Collectively she gave 85 percent grade on the score card. She is confident that all the airports will be delivered by the end of month.
The Managing Director of Federal Airport Authority of Nigeria Mr. George Uriesi had explained that the rationale for the rehabilitation was an underpinning philosophy to create the kind of space, the kind of comfort and ambience modern airports provide so that passengers on getting into the airports would feel the sense of being respected.
The airports expansion was to bring in a better commercial offering because the airport was about the commercial activities that happen there, he had said.
He said: "The design of our airports in the 1970s left out these commercial aspects because it was designed purely as aeronautical infrastructure. Every night you see a crowd of people outside there waiting for people. For me, when I look at that crowd of people, I see dollar signs that are not captured.
"They should not be standing outside there waiting for passengers; they should be sitting inside the terminal, eating and drinking in an environment like that. For us, it is a way of making money, the concessionaires are making money, meters and greeters are happy and that is how an airport environment is supposed to be."
He added that FAAN was losing business because of infrastructure deficit and part of the philosophy was to invite all the people that hang outside.
"Let them come and be part of the airport experience, let them come and spend more money in the airport, let them be happy, let us be happy, let our business partners be happy. We are trying to achieve that in all the international airports across the country," he said.
After the inspections of works at the airports last week, the Minister Prince Oduah said: "we have done more than 85 per cent of work on the airports. From the end of this month we will start commissioning. Construction is a long process because the foundation has to be right and I think in the context of one to 100, I will give us 80, 85 percent."
She is satisfied with the quality of work done.
She said: "We have our own quality department working with them at all times. We want to make sure that we don't play with customers' safety at all times, which is why we are doing total reconstructing and reconstruction of the airports. Every airport going forward will be brand new with double capacities. Every airport in the country would be remodeled.
"The contractor has done his best. Transformation is double if we want. The reconstruction here is a testimony to that effect. Some people are ill spirited. They don't like Nigeria. We either transform or we perish. I don't think we want to perish. If you don't believe in the transformation, take a trip to Kano or any other airport we are remodeling. Seeing they say is believing."
"What we are doing goes beyond remodeling of the airports, we are actually doing restructuring and reconstructing of the airports. We are just starting to go round the airport. We are doubling the sizes of those terminals and changing all the facilities and utilities within the airport. So, you can't call that remodeling, it is restructuring and reconstructing.
"That is what we are doing to ensure that passengers have safety model of transportation and we want to ensure that passengers have value for their money. Most importantly, we want every Nigerian and stakeholders to be proud of our airport environments. It is a total transformation of the aviation sector."
She said the challenges so far has come from those that have benefitted from the destruction and negligence of this sector. "They have been the major problem that we have encountered because I don't know why anybody should be anti-progress. Why should anybody be against transformation? I don't understand it. This administration is a transformation one and we would transform from bad to good," she said.
Director General Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) Dr. Harold Demuren said security concerns are being addressed with the remodeling.
He said: "You will recall that after the Mutallab episode, we came out with various security measures for the industry and what we are saying is that every passenger must pass through 100 per cent security checks at the airport.
"The remodeling we are doing right now, we have taken that into consideration and what we are really doing is that when you come in, there is no way for you to avoid security. All your bags, everything will be screened and we are being courteous than we used to be.
"When this one is completed, you know we used to open the bags and every other thing, but now, we have put in place equipment that can detect everything you have. Whether it is explosives, liquid, powder and co, we don't care what it is; we can find them out now."
He explained further that security will now be right at the gates. "We will screen right at the entrance and then, we will have another screening at the centre. With those two, you can't miss it. So, we are very happy that is what we are bringing in now," he said.
He also said the Abuja will remain locked until all security gadgets are installed. "We will not open the airport (Abuja) unless the security gadgets are installed; we want to assure you of that. Security is number one for us and that is what we will continue to do."

COUNTERFEITING isn't often a matter of life and death. But at an international conference on product piracy last month, the deadly potential of fake goods was on everyone's mind.
The wake-up call came from China, where dozens of babies have died and hundreds are suffering malnutrition after being fed counterfeit formula milk with no nutritional value. Parents and carers were unwittingly feeding their babies on nothing but water.
Coming just a week before the first Global Congress on Combating Counterfeiting, held in Brussels on 28 May, the affair brought the potential risks of piracy into sharp relief. Run by Interpol and the World Customs Organization, the congress aimed to pool knowledge, plan action and discuss technologies that can help defeat piracy. A huge range of products are affected, from drugs and contraceptives, to food, cosmetics, shoes and car parts. "When people buy counterfeit condoms in Africa it can cost them ...

The Future of Modular Storage
by Hu Yoshida on Jul 28, 2008
Rick Villars of IDC believes that the predominant storage system in the future will be modular, two controller, storage systems. While modular storage will continue to be the storage of choice for the midrange market, it will have an expanding presence in the enterprise market as "role based" storage systems. This is storage that meets a particular role, such as NAS, VTL, Archive, or as a back end tier to a storage virtualization controller. While modular storage systems do not have the high availability of large enterprise storage systems that have 32 to 128 controllers clustered around a global cache, that deficiency can be masked though virtualization behind an enterprise storage virtualization system.
Since an enterprise storage virtualization controller can provide thousands of virtual ports for connectivity, large front end cache capacity for enhanced performance, thin provisioning for increased utilization, and non-disruptive, copy, move, and replicate for high availability and business continuity, the back end storage can be designed for low cost, modular capacity. Rick also believes that enterprises will be refreshing this modular storage on an accelerated 18 month cycle to take advantage of the price erosion of capacity which will continue to be 30% per year. Virtualization will make it easy to swap out or refresh storage modules without disruption to the application and without the need to swap out the entire storage farm. The days when data centers replaced their storage farms on 3 years or 5 year cycles, buying future capacity at today's price, are over.
With storage virtualization and dynamic provisioning (thin provisioning) it is now possible to provision smaller increments of storage dynamically. Storage virtualization alone or thin provisioning alone will not be able to provide this capability. Thin provisioning enables you to share a pool of storage across multiple applications as though it were a liquid pool of capacity. Storage virtualization enables the extension of this pool of storage across multiple heterogeneous storage systems, adding modular storage systems as required.
An intelligent storage virtualization controller can provide a platform for current and future, enterprise, storage services, which can be applied to lower cost modular storage systems. This separation of intelligence from commodity capacity will enable IT to provide the right mix of, cost effective, storage services to meet business needs.

957 Commonwealth Ave.
Boston, MA 02215
Pleasant St. stop on the Green (B) Line
Brilliance Tattoo is a new studio located on Commonwealth Ave, in the heart of Boston University. Our shop was created with today's tattoo collector in mind; someone who is looking for a quiet, welcoming, non-intimidating environment to receive some personal attention and guidance on your new tattoo.
All our tattooists are custom artists. This means we do not have "flash" designs on the walls of our shop (unless they were painted by us), but we do have a large reference library and an open ear to listen to your ideas and design something just for you.
Each artist schedules consultations and appointments individually on weekdays, and we take small walk-ins (less than 4"x4") on Saturdays from 11-7. Unfortunately we recieve more requests for tattoos than we have time to accommodate, and some of our artists do have a wait list or take periods of time off of new clients to get caught up on drawing for existing clients. This means if you have a larger or more involved tattoo, it may take a little more time, and that we occasionally have to turn away some work if it does not fit within our schedule or drawing style. We hope though that you appreciate the time and effort we put into each and every tattoo that we can take on.

From CHS Student Government, cosponsors Cara Soukup and Peg Krambeck Eblen, and Future Business Leaders of America (FBLA) and advisor Shannon Smith
Creston High School Student Government and Future Business Leaders of America (FBLA) would like to thank everyone who supported the "Battling for Babies" fundraiser on Tuesday, Jan. 21, at the Creston Orient-Macksburg wrestling meet.
Our student leaders invested time and energy into planning and conducting this event because many of them feel passionately about the work done by March of Dimes. However, the event would not have been successful without the involvement of many people and organizations.
Congratulations to Coach Frain, his coaching staff, and the C/O-M wrestlers for their victories over Red Oak and Shenandoah. Thank you for hosting our event.
Thank you, First National Bank and Ferrara, for purchasing sponsorships. We are also grateful for the donations from Tyler Insurance and Great Western Bank.
We appreciated the individual wrestling fans who agreed to make pledges per pin; your pledge made each match a little more exciting and contributed to our overall fundraising efforts. Thanks.
We are grateful to the CHS Peppers and art students who gave of their time to paint faces and fingernails. Your presence helped create a fun atmosphere at our event.
Finally, we want to acknowledge the help of Mr. Messerole, Mr. Bevins, CHS custodians, and Claudia Peppers. Thank you to all teachers and school employees in Creston and at O-M who assisted in the distribution and collection of T-shirt orders.
At this time, we believe the Purple Out event on Tuesday raised approximately $1,600. Thank you so much for your generous support to benefit March of Dimes.
