VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (Marketwire) -- 02/27/13 -- Strata 2013 Conference - Simba Technologies, the industry's Open Database Connectivity (ODBC) expert for Big Data solutions, announced today that it has worked with Intel, to provide ODBC access to the Intel® Distribution for Apache Hadoop(i) software. Simba's Apache Hive and HBase ODBC Drivers with SQL Connectors provide customers easy access to their data for Business Intelligence (BI) and analytics using the SQL-based application of their choice on the Intel® Distribution for Apache Hadoop software.
ODBC is the most common data interface used by BI, data analysis and reporting applications. The ODBC 3.52 specification - on which Simba's Apache Hive ODBC Driver with SQL Connector is fully compliant - is the foundation for standards-based access from BI tools such as Alteryx, Microsoft Excel, Tableau, SAP BusinessObjects Crystal Reports and countless others. ODBC was developed in 1992 by Microsoft and Simba Technologies and has been the flagship API for SQL ever since.
Unlike other drivers for Hive, Simba's Apache Hive ODBC Driver with SQL Connector performs the added task of mapping standard SQL-92 to HiveQL-thereby seamlessly integrating data residing in Hadoop with any SQL-based applications.
For your HBase data which was previously not accessible with any query language, Simba's Apache HBase ODBC Driver with SQL Connector opens up the world of enterprise-class analytic and reporting applications.
"Both Simba's Apache Hive and HBase ODBC Driver with SQL Connector are based upon the latest ODBC standard, opening up the entire ecosystem of SQL-based applications to access and analyze Big Data in Hadoop," said George Chow, Simba's CTO. "ODBC connectivity to the Intel® Distribution for Apache Hadoop software makes data accessible to enterprise users, using proven tools found in the data scientist's and business user's BI toolbox. We look forward to the success of Intel in the Hadoop world."
"Intel® Distribution for Apache Hadoop software is designed to be a broad platform for a wide range of data analysis applications. For enterprise business analysts using a variety of SQL applications, Intel® Distribution provides a powerful connectivity option powered by Simba's HBase and Hive ODBC connectors," said Girish Juneja, General Manager, Big Data Software, Intel Corporation. "With close integration of capabilities, the Intel® Distribution and Simba's connectivity innovations deliver outstanding value to our joint customers."
Built upon the SimbaEngine SDK driver development framework - the industry's leading ODBC toolkit for high-performance ODBC driver development - Simba's Apache Hive ODBC Driver with SQL Connector and Apache HBase ODBC Driver with SQL Connector complies with the latest ODBC 3.52 data standard and adds important functionality such as Unicode and 32- and 64-bit support for high-performance computing environments on all platforms.

Various standards bodies, approaches, and ecosystems are vying for mindshare and positioning for a competitive edge. It is clear that when the dust settles, we will have new protocols, evolved protocols, that will change the way we interact with devices and infrastructure. We will also have evolved web protocols, like HTTP/2, that will be changing the very core of our infrastructures. At the same time, we have old approaches made new again like micro-services...

The Think Like a Man actor says it was "a dream" to work with his co-star.
(Photo: Courtesy Lionsgate Pictures)
Even though Think Like a Man is a romantic ensemble comedy, Michael Ealy still works each frame like a leading man. After portraying a wide range of characters on the big screen in films like Takers, For Colored Girls and Underworld: Awakening, the 38-year old takes on the role of Dominic, "The Dreamer," in the film based on Steve Harvey's bestselling book, Act Like a Lady, Think Like a Man. Ealy admits the movie is already one of his all-time favorites.
"I love this film. I honestly love it," he told BET.com. "I was just telling the writers [Keith Merryman and David A. Newman] that when anybody else was on the screen but me — I was more critical of my own stuff — I just honestly, thoroughly, thoroughly enjoyed watching every character and every relationship. The movie breathes enough so that every relationship has an arc and was fleshed out. That's just so rare in romantic comedies these days."
In Think Like a Man his love interest is über-successful and super sexy Lauren, aka "The Woman Who Is Her Own Man," played by Taraji P. Henson. Their onscreen relationship is challenge-ridden because Lauren mistakes Dominic for being the power player he's not. But it was not a case of art imitating life off-screen, Ealy says it was "literally a dream" to work with Henson. "We have talked for years about us working together — the two dramatic actors that we are coming together to do something powerful — and we came together to do a comedy."
Ealy also says the pairing with Henson elevated his acting game throughout the entire film. "Working with Taraji day in and day out, there's nothing she can't handle. Anything that I threw at her in a scene she just knocked it out of the park. She's so dope," he gushes. "That's the only word that can describe her. I hope that we get to do more projects together, I really do. She's phenomenal."
And this duo's onscreen chemistry exuded a palpable sizzle and pop. So does he hope that includes future love scenes with Henson, too?
"Yeah, those too," Ealy says with a laugh.
Think Like a Man hits theaters on April 20.

KIEV (Reuters) - Ukrainian presidential bodyguards have disposed of a powerful explosive device discovered near President Petro Poroshenko's headquarters, a security source said on Saturday.
"The device was found during the night near the gate where presidential cars go in. It was a container with five grenades and a kilogram of metal nuts," said the source, who declined to be identified. "It was a really powerful device."
The source gave no other details. The presidential administration did not immediately issue any statement.
Poroshenko was sworn in last week after wining an election on May 25. His predecessor, Viktor Yanukovich, was ousted in February after protests in Kiev and the government is facing a rebellion by pro-Russian separatists in east Ukraine.

CIB Marine facing regulatory crackdown
Send this to a friend
- Rich Kirchen
Marine Bank parent CIB Marine Bancshares Inc. faces a crackdown by state and federal regulators and may need to file for receivership unless its debtholders agree to allow the bank holding company to restructure payments.
John Hickey, the president and CEO of the Pewaukee-based bank holding company, said Thursday in a letter to shareholders that the company's management still hopes to receive approval for a restructuring plan from holders of its trust-preferred shares. Reaching an agreement would restore the company's capital position and allow it to seek a buyer, he said.
Thus far, the holders of $100.9 million in debentures have declined to approve a plan to accept about $94.9 million in "liquidation preference" in newly issued fixed rate perpetual noncumulative preferred stock. Eliminating that debt from CIB Marine's balance sheet would significantly improve its regulatory capital position, Hickey said.
"If approved, management and the board believe that this restructuring would return the company to a strong capital position and will afford the time necessary to continue efforts locating a strategic partner for the company," Hickey said.
As of April 10, the initial voting deadline established in the solicitation to holders of trust-preferred stock, an insufficient number of positive votes were cast, the company said. CIB Marine has elected to extend the voting deadline until May 11 to allow for further discussions with shareholders "as well as to consider other available options."
CIB Marine Bancshares is a multi-bank holding company that owns and operates two separately chartered commercial banks: Marine Bank and Central Illinois Bank, Champaign, Ill. Marine Bank has three locations in southeast Wisconsin and three in Indiana with a total of $399.3 million in assets.

Old Or New Wings
05/23/07 at 06:07 PM ET | Comments (0)
from TBM at NBC Sports,
And more importantly, how much longer can the Wings rely on a core of players who are living monuments to the league's history? Chris Chelios is 45, Dominik Hasek 42, and Nicklas Lidstrom and Schneider are 37. Chelios, Hasek and Schneider are all unrestricted free agents this summer, and you can bet all three will be back next season.
How much longer will the Red Wings keep trotting out these old warhorses? As long as they a) produce and b) work relatively cheap. Hasek and Chelios both make less than $1 million a year, which makes them cap friendly. If the NHL's salary cap does approach the $50 million mark, look for Detroit to be active in the free agent market, pursuing players like Ryan Smyth and Chris Drury.
That would be just like the good old days for Detroit. And who knows about old times better than the Red Wings?

Happy For The Sens

from the CP via TSN,
Rick Bowness had to live through the lean years. Jacques Martin put up with his teams being called underachievers.
Both former Senators head coaches say they're happy for their old team reaching a first-ever Stanley Cup final.
"I'm ecstatic for the team and the city and I hope they do well," Bowness, the team's first coach, said Wednesday.

It's All About The Players
05/23/07 at 03:35 PM ET | Comments (0)
from Red Fisher of the Montreal Gazette,
It's all about people - even in this new My NHL 2. It's all about players with no quit in them, from the No. l liners to the supporting casts willing to sacrifice to make good things happen even at a time when players, with rare exceptions (they know who they are) are grossly overpaid and over-pampered.
It's about leaders such as Daniel Alfredsson, whose overtime goal ended the Buffalo Sabres' season. We have never met formally, but it's not necessary to know someone to understand what he brings to the ice and how he handles adversity off it.

Show Canadians Some Repect
05/23/07 at 03:32 PM ET | Comments (0)
from the Barrie Examiner,
But really, the Stanley Cup final should begin Saturday night at 7 p.m., because that's when Canadians most like to watch NHL hockey on television.
It's a little show called 'Hockey Night In Canada', and it's been around for more than a few years.
Starting the final then would also show Canadian hockey fans some respect, respect that's been sorely lacking during these playoffs. The most recent
example was playing the last Ottawa-Buffalo game on a Saturday afternoon during the long, Victoria Day weekend.
It was a warm, sunny spring day, and the NHL forced Canadian fans indoors for their playoff hockey fix just to appease NBC, an American TV station that attracts a handful of fans whenever it shows hockey.

During the playoffs, Phoebe Flowers has been pointing to A2Y on a consistent basis. Wonder if it is her love for the Wings or for the Sailor?

...comes from Evan Grossman at NHL.com,
Four town employees were recently fired from their jobs for gossiping and spreading false rumors around their New Hampshire office. It's unknown if the four plan to take up careers in the rumor-mongering hockey media now that they need new jobs.

2-3-2 For SCF
05/23/07 at 03:06 PM ET | Comments (0)
from Eric Duhatschek of the Globe and Mail,
Has the time come for the National Hockey League to revert to the 2-3-2 playoff format for the Stanley Cup final?
For the fourth year in a row, the NHL has ended up with a final that is a geographic nightmare, pitting a team (Ottawa) from about as far north and east as it can get, against a team (Anaheim) about as far south and west as it can get.

No Excitement In SCF
05/23/07 at 01:53 PM ET | Comments (0)
from Chris Stevens of the Midland Daily News,
Fans in Canada, knock yourselves out. You'll be right there, watching every second of the Senators' games. Hockey is in your blood.
For 99.8 percent of Americans, the season ended last night when the Red Wings were eliminated.
Maybe the Red Wings should play the Buffalo Sabres in an alternate Cup series. That actually has some intrigue.
But the Ducks vs. the Senators?
Another writer and probably not the last who cannot appreciate the game itself. I have a feeling many more MSM types will take the easy road and blast the finals too.

The Maturing Of Pronger
05/23/07 at 12:52 PM ET | Comments (0)
from Pierre McGuire at NBC Sports,
The Ducks and Pronger are going to be in for a tough series against the Ottawa Senators. If the Ducks do win the Cup, you can bet that Pronger will have played a major role. With Chris, nothing is ever boring, and this Final will be no exception.
No matter what happens it is amazing to see how a young boy has grown over the many years since he turned pro in 1993. That boy is now the man many people hoped and wanted him to be. What a ride it has been. He is now a proud husband and a father. Number two in 1993 is clearly more important than No. 1, and Pronger is just scratching the surface.

Picture yourself spending some time with congenial friends, sharing your lives and pictures from your cell phones." They're curious about that cool game, song, movie, camping trip, art show, or other event that fascinated you. You talk about all kinds of stuff, poetry, styles, personal achievements, relationships, and bad days. You can share your inner child, and laugh together. They sympathetically listen to your feelings about serious topics like politics or climate change, even when they don't agree.
Personal validation comes from paying attention to one another, giving more than you get. Everyone respects you and themselves, despite our amazing range of personal tastes and interests. They'll tell you they don't agree with an idea or behavior without implying you're a bad person or somehow deficient. It's an "I'm OK, You're OK" kind of fellowship, where nobody tries to make himself look better by picking on somebody else.
Nobody here is into mind games. A discussion started with a loaded guilt-throwing question will be deleted.
This group is not intended to compete with other groups on topics they cover but to "fill in the cracks." Whenever a discussion dwells at length on a topic for which there's an existing group, we urge you to provide members a link to that group to continue along their tangent.

Joan. Here is Brian Cox and D:REAM on TOTP 9Top of the Pops).
Band is so-so, but Brian is rockin' the long hair!
Sidney M. Gonzalez, I agree wholeheartedly with your statement,
"I do not believe that science alone can give purpose and direction for human life."
There is no quarrel there at all. People find a sense of meaning, purpose and direction many ways. If someone believes some power gives them direction, that is perfectly OK with me. Just don't impose it on me, or judge me by those lights. I am pretty good at rejecting such impositions.
Melinda, Can you imagine, a grown up adult has many options.
1. Follow the teaching of a Bronze Age, desert goat herder;
2. Look at the evidence: 7,113,921,600+ humans alive on the planet and quickly running out of food growing capacity;
3. Consider getting tubes tied and a vasectomy.
Our response to them:
I think it would be perfectly appropriate to hold them accountable for overpopulating the Earth. They should be ashamed of themselves.
The family with 10 young kids, that I was referring to in my earlier post, are born-again xtians.
Cute LOL Cat Steph :) That's so cool you make them!
"Patricia, Brian Cox on his days as a rocker...... http://youtu.be/buL6ATRHFqk?
Thanks Patricia. Oh this is hilarious, "Rock-star physicist" Brian Cox works on the Large Hadron Collider at CERN, looking for the Higgs Boson, and he can't find a red car in a parking lot at Disney Land. I suppose that story trails him wherever he goes.
Now, can you find any of his music?
I like the idea of music and science being very closely related.
Sidney M. Gonzalez, a fair and good question and one I happily address.
"why should anyone care about other people's illusions?"
I don't care or have any interest in what others believe. However, when people or institutions express disagreement, I have the responsibility and opportunity to express my thinking, and do so without hesitation. When their beliefs intrude upon mine, when they want to bring their beliefs into public education or into marriage laws, or into family planning laws, I will not only challenge them, I do so with every bit of thought and action I can muster. I was not born to follow other's ideas, it is my responsibility to think through issues and arrive at conclusions I am willing and able to defend. I have paid a heavy price for my independent thought; It was worth it.
"And what method does Dennett use to determine that complete strangers, people he, you and me, don't know have dedicated their lives to an illusion;"
Dennett used his ability to think, reason, compare, contrast, discuss, and all the other critical thinking tools he, and everyone has. It is his responsibility to speak his truth; whether others agree or disagree is up to him to think about and arrive at his conclusions. If Dennett observed a person putting filthy, dirty hands into a wound, would he not be obligated to intervene?
"an illusion about what?"
There are so many delusions we encounter in life: the young Earth, a personal god who answers prayers, virgin birth, god, angels, resurrection, sun standing still in the heavens, a man created from dust and woman created from a rib, to start populating the world, a flood where everything died except what was on a boat, god giving tablets to some sheep herder on a barren desert mountain, god parting the seas. Oh, I am getting tired and I haven't even started on Buddha yet.
Let's just cut to the chase. We live on an incredibly beautiful Earth that exists because of natural forces beyond our control. Human beings now have the power of destroying all this vast life as we know it. Human will probably not survive, and sharks and cockroaches have already survived five known extinctions.
Human beings continue to use power-over instead of power-with, to our detriment. We are no better than the eagle catching a rabbit or a snake eating a rat. We continue to act like humans are made only of claw-and-beak power, instead of realizing we have a frontal lobe in our brain that means only 1% different than the DNA of our closest primate in the super family Hominoides, Apes. That one% should be recognized as being capable of moving beyond apes into a whole new realm. Instead, we dead-end at Hominoides, Apes. There will have to be more evolution in the Homo sapiens sapiens family if we are to see the end of Obama-GW Bush-Clinton-GHW Bush, Reagon and other war mongers.
We have a gift given to us without any intervention on our part. It is our responsibility to take care of it or lose it.
"why should anyone care about other people's illusions?"
That is why!

Seven robbers shot dead in South Africa
JOHANNESBURG (Reuters) - An elite South African police unit shot dead seven men when they tried to rob a cash depot in western Johannesburg on Saturday evening, a spokesman for the unit said.
Nine others were injured and under police guard in hospital, a spokesman of the unit known as Hawks told Reuters. Police also confiscated 11 vehicles and four firearms.
"We believe we got the kingpin down. We are convinced that we got all the robbers - dead or arrested," Paul Ramaloko said.
The depot belonged to Protea Coin, a security company which runs a cash-in-transit business.
Crime is a chronic problem for South Africa. It has one of the highest murder rates in the world outside a war zone.
About 40 percent of the adult population is jobless - a percentage expected to rise substantially in the coming years - and this is seen driving crime and widening economic inequality.

Mario Martínez's time in Seattle appears to be over
Jun 30, 2013, 7:13 PM EDT
Seattle Sounders fan's year-long wait for the emergence of Mario Martínez appears to have been in vain, with reports out of Honduras on Sunday confirming what many have suspected for much of the month. According to what his national team coach shared with Diario Diez, the talented Honduran's loan from Real Espana will end without a permanent move to Major League Soccer.
Diario Diez posted the apparent confirmation Sunday, with Honduran national team coach Luis Súarez explaining the attacker's inclusion in Honduras's Gold Cup squad was a result of Martínez's Seattle tenure coming to an end.
"Llamé a Mario Martínez porque me ratificó que no va a continuar en Seattle Sounders", Luis Suárez.—
Diario Diez (@DiarioDiez) June 30, 2013
Roughly translated: I called up Mario Martínez because I confirmed he will no continue with the Seattle Sounders.
The news will disappoint ardet Sounder fans, but it's unclear how big of a loss this is. During his year in Seattle, Martínez only made 13 league appearances and five starts, recording one assist and no goals. The production, a fair reflection of his contributions, won't be difficult to replace.
While many lauded his potential, that potential rarely showed in competitive games. As one user quickly reminded me, Martínez did have a flash of brilliance in last year's playoffs against Real Salt Lake; ultimately, however, Martínez's influence never matched his talent.
As the end of the loan approached, Adrian Hanauer and the Sounders were left with a decision. Do we buy Martínez, a player who has failed to have an impact, based purely on our view of his potential? Or do we reallocate those salary cap resources (around $150,000) to other areas now that we've seen Martínez is unable to secure a regular place in the squad?
As the deadline to come to an agreement with Real Espana approached, the Sounders still seemed uncertain of their decision, as evidenced by Sigi Schmid's surprise Martínez was named in the Catrachos' Gold Cup squad. Seattle were under the impression that Martínez will be excluded. Apparently, with Martínez headed back to Honduras, their impressions no longer mattered.
It's hard to say his departure will hurt, though, since it never really helped. For all the hopes Martínez inspired in loyal Sounders' supporters, he never provided a dividend. And now, he appears to be off.

Speaking of Cali hip-hop, two of the most important figures in the contemporary L.A. rap scene, Kendrick Lamar and Flying Lotus, just revealed a surprising new collaborative single. The pair embody two of the dominant themes that have been bouncing around it recently: on one hand, a nostalgia-tinged re-engagement with the city's gangsta rap history, and on the other, a psychedelic deconstructionist movement, influenced by cosmic free jazz, that's doing to the boom bap what Ornette Coleman did to bebop. They may seem like artists with very disparate goals, but "Never Catch Me" shows that they're more compatible than they may seem on the surface.

Casey Affleck Admits Joaquin Phoenix Documentary Isn't Real
"I never intended to trick anybody," Affleck, who's married to Phoenix's sister Summer, told the magazine. "The idea of a quote, hoax, unquote, never entered my mind." But, to the rest of the world watching, it appeared to be real. Phoenix played the role on- and off-screen for over two years--including an infamous appearance on the 'Late Show With Dave Letterman' in 2009 when he mumbled his way through the interview, leaving the host bewildered by the actor's behavior.
"It's a terrific performance, it's the performance of his career," Affleck says of Phoenix's two years of role-playing. He acknowledges that Phoenix put his professional life on the line to do this film--which Affleck reveals is modeled after the journalism of Hunter S. Thompson.
But why did they do it? Usually, fake documentaries or mockumentaries give the audience a heads up that it's fiction. But 'I'm Still Here' never does that. Affleck tells the New York Times that he wanted viewers to experience the film's message about the disintegration of celebrity without the distraction of preconceived notions. He acknowledges, "There was no wink."
For his part, Affleck seems to realize the audience and critics might not like what they've created. "The reviews were so angry," he said.
As for the future, the actors are returning to Hollywood. But the question remains: can these two Academy Award-nominated actors be taken seriously anymore?

I think this is a front for Phoenix REALLY being off his rocker. But I don't give a crap either way. All I know is that every bootleg camera torrent for "I'm Still Here" I've downloaded is a fake. And hell, I seen friggin' "Inception" on bootleg the day after it was out. What's goin' on?

I think Joaquin made a serious mistake doing this. He was at the height[he started this garbage after 'Walk the Line'] of his career, and had many fans concerned for his well being. It may very well be 'the performance of his career', for I'm not sure how much of it he has left.
Always liked his acting, good luck to him.

Rolls-Royce's Powerful Wraith Coupe Set to Unveil at Geneva Motor Show
- Order Reprints
- Text Size
By IBTimes Staff Reporter | January 22, 2013 4:56 PM EST
British luxury car maker Rolls Royce is all set to unleash its most powerful and dynamic design model, Wraith Coupe, at the Geneva Auto Show in early March.
"The Rolls-Royce Wraith will draw superlatives when it is unveiled in Geneva. Expect the boldest design, the most dramatic performance and the most powerful Rolls-Royce that has ever played host to the famous Spirit of Ecstasy figurine," Torsten Muller-Otvos, CEO, Rolls Royce said while confirming the name of the new model.
The new coupe is said to be powered by a 6.6-litre, twin-turbocharged V12 petrol engine which could generate a power of 600bhp in the region of 450kW and an equal amount of torque.
The Wraith is reportedly the most powerful car model from Rolls Royce until now. The two-door car model "will have a length of around 5200mm and ride on a wheelbase about 180mm shorter than that of the four-door Ghost," Stuff.co.nz reported.
Rolls Royce had first made use of the name 'Wraith' in 1938.
There are no official pictures of the car yet. The company had released a dramatic teaser instead that barely showed the profile of the car, leaving everything to the imagination rather.
"We will present a model whose starting point is luxury, refinement and exclusivity, traits that have made Rolls-Royce the world's pinnacle luxury good for the last 108 years. This is a car not only defined by a timeless elegance, but one that encapsulates a sense of power, style and drama," Torsten Muller-Otvos added.
Below is the teaser video of Rolls Royce's latest coupe:

Ju' Malone - Give a Eff
Artist: Ju' Malone
Producer: Julian Malone
Album: Diff.rnt
Avg Rating: 3.0 ( 6 votes )
Can you honestly claim not to Give a Eff, when you give enough of an eff not to spell out the word "f*ck?" (I realize the irony of what I did there, but I had to make it past the profanity filter.) Though interesting, the question is ultimately an academic one. After listening to Julian Malone's debut solo feature I can state with confidence that, while plenty of 'f*ck's are said, not a solitary one is given over the course of the record's running time. Previously featured as a member of Calez and Fonz-E-Mak, the Stone's Throw signee officially comes into his own with this newly-released mixtape cut, which sees him outlining his cynical worldview over his own low-key, headphone-ready loops. Feeling it? Then stay tuned for more fresh material leading up to the currently-unscheduled arrival of Malone's forthcoming street album, Diffe.rnt.
