Surfing about and saw where you wondered who Hamilton Disston South is/was. The obit is for Hamilton D. Jr who died 5 April 1992 in Albany, NY, His parents were Hamilton D (#1) and Elizabeth Turnbull South. His family went from NJ to Clermont Co, OH and then back to Philadelphia (Tacony). PA.
Hamilton D (#1) had a sister Effie who married a Roney and by chance though a friend of my Dad's in Phillie he met Effie's son David Roney. They became fast friends. When my mother died Dave and Dorothy Roney were the first ones on the doorstep.
It is Hamilton D (#III) who was hobnobbing with the Kennedys and the like. Read some time ago in ther gossip section of the Baltimore that 'Hamilton South escorted Jackie Kennedy off the slopes at St Moritz' when she pooped out.
So now you know. Now you can sleep better. Ha!

Expanding deployments of Postgres among global enterprises and ISVs helped drive record subscription sales growth
London, UK - February 18, 2014 - EnterpriseDB (EDB), the leading worldwide provider of enterprise-class Postgres products and Oracle database compatibility solutions, today announced a record 70 percent increase in software subscription revenue in 2013. The year capped 16 consecutive quarters of growth in subscription revenue as global enterprises continued to expand their deployments of Postgres to contain or reduce spending on more costly, traditional database vendors.
Deepening relationships with existing users, growth in new subscriptions, expanded relationships with independent software vendors and partners, and revenue growth in the cloud all played a role in EDB's record year. EDB added more than 400 customers in 2013 and the ranks now exceed 2,400. The prevalence of larger enterprises adopting EDB proves that larger enterprises continue to expand their success with open source software in the data center to drive down costs. This is an important trend, with companies looking further up the infrastructure software stack to the database layer for opportunities to leverage open source.
EDB counts among its customers 50 of the Fortune 500 list of the largest US companies and 98 of the Forbes Global 2000 list of the largest companies in the world. EDB's customers worldwide now include ABN AMRO Bank, Grupo BBVA, Deutsche Börse AG, Ericsson, Fujitsu, KT Corp., Lockheed Martin, McKesson Corp., Nippon Telegraph & Telephone (NTT), RSA Security and the Alaska Department of Health and Social Services.
"Revenue figures tell our story for us. We've had 16 consecutive quarters of growth during some tough years for the global economy," said Ed Boyajian, CEO and President of EnterpriseDB. "EnterpriseDB is celebrating its 10th year in business this year and with that comes the proven track record, experience and expertise that global organisations recognise and value in a strategic database solution provider. That same ability to deliver won us recognition this past year from Gartner as the only relational database in the Challenger quadrant in the Magic Quadrant for Operational Database Management Systems."
Key Contributors to EDB Growth
Expanded ISV Program
Independent software vendors (ISVs) were a key contributor to EDB's growth during 2013 with a significant increase in activity. These companies are either working with EDB to certify the performance and compatibility of Postgres Plus Advanced Server for their products or they are embedding EDB software into their own products to increase margins and deliver more cost-effective solutions to customers. HP, for example, has certified its mission critical clustering solution HP Serviceguard for Postgres Plus Advanced Server as well as its HP Service Activator, which telecommunications companies use to create and activate new service accounts.
EDB is also currently working with ACI Worldwide, CA Technologies, Dell, Informatica, PinkRoccade, Symantec and Tata Consultancy Services.
New Partnership Milestones
EDB is a partner in the HP Intel Solution Centers and has a build for the HP-UX operating environment on Intel Itanium-based HP Integrity servers. The partnership marked a major deployment with Deutsche Börse AG, which operates the largest financial exchange in Germany. In recognition of the Deutsche Börse deployment, HP awarded EnterpriseDB with an HP AllianceOne Partner of the Year Award for Mission Critical Computing at the HP Discover event in Las Vegas in June 2013.
EDB also deepened its longtime relationship with IBM with the announcement in July 2013 that EDB's flagship Postgres Plus Advanced Server was available on its IBM Power Systems servers running Linux, and on the new high-performance Linux-based system, the PowerLinux 7R4. The collaboration was pivotal in expanding the range of open source based alternatives.
Growth in Postgres Plus Cloud Database
Postgres Plus Cloud Database usage skyrocketed in 2013 and revenue from the product increased by 200 percent as the demand for Postgres among enterprises and governments extended to the cloud. While the cloud database expanded its ranks of customers conducting initial trials, a significant portion of existing customers reported plans to move from development to production deployment and to deploy new workloads.
Product and Technology Advances
EDB released its Postgres Plus Advanced Server 9.3 with performance enhancements that are not available in community PostgreSQL. Major performance improvements in partitioning expand the workloads that Postgres Plus Advanced Server can handle, including large datasets that require scaling to hundreds and even thousands of table partitions.
The newest version of Postgres Plus Advanced Server also expanded the solution's capacity to support JSON data types. The new capabilities strengthened Postgres' ability to support both unstructured and semi-structured data and as well as many applications that NoSQL technologies had been developed to support.
EDB also launched one of its most important new products in December. EDB Failover Manager fulfills a critical need among Postgres users for an automated failover solution that integrates seamlessly with the company's flagship Postgres Plus Advanced Server as well as community PostgreSQL deployments. The product is crucial for meeting enterprise High Availability demands by monitoring the health of a streaming replication cluster and initiating failover in the event the master database fails.
Supporting Quotes
"Our customers are looking to expand their open ecosystems to support more demanding and more complex workloads. The strength and reliability of EDB's Postgres Plus Advanced Server, combined with our Linux-based HP ProLiant and HP-UX-based Integrity offerings, provide data-driven enterprises with a powerful open solution to alternative platforms," said Vineeth Ram, VP Product Marketing, HP Servers.
"We are always pleased to see Red Hat partners deliver powerful open source solutions to the enterprise, especially long-time members of the Red Hat ecosystem like EnterpriseDB. Red Hat and EnterpriseDB joint customers can benefit from the performance gains, cost savings and enterprise-class support provided by the partner certified and supported solution," said Mike Werner, Sr. Director, Global Technology Programs, Red Hat.
"We've witnessed a dramatic increase in performance with Postgres Plus Advanced Server version 9.3 when inserting massive amounts of data into partitioned tables. With this new feature, we were able to easily and successfully deploy a real-time signal acquisition project that would have been a significant challenge using another technology," said Juan Alberto Cuadros, Competence Center Manager, Indra, a global technology solutions provider based in Madrid.

How do APIs and IoT relate? The answer is not as simple as merely adding an API on top of a dumb device, but rather about understanding the architectural patterns for implementing an IoT fabric. There are typically two or three trends: Exposing the device to a management framework Exposing that management framework to a business centric logic • Exposing that business layer and data to end users. This last trend is the IoT stack, which involves a new shift in the separation of what stuff happens, where data lives and where the interface lies. For instance, it's a mix of architectural style...

Catahoula Dogs can make good pets in New York if they match your IifestyIe. The Catahoula, or Louisiana Catahoula Leopard Dog, is an intelligent, loyal, and territorial breed. Catahoulas are affectionate with their own families but intolerant of strangers. Catahoulas need a lot of time and attention from their owners and are best matched with people who have experience training intelligent dogs. A Catahoula that is left alone and ignored may become aggressive or destructive. Early socialization is imperative, especially with children. Catahoulas are very physical and need a lot of exercise. Some can adapt to apartment life while others cannot; the safest bet is a home with a large fenced yard or open land.

Amazing massage rocks
Reviewed: October 28, 2014 by margaret.t
If you love a long tender romantic play with your partner, these massage stones are the perfect choice for you! Whether you enjoy giving or receiving massages, I could not recommend these enough!
They come in a lovely black bag to store them engraved with a little red heart - the LH logo. And every stone has a little heart on it too. The bag is pretty big and there are plenty of stones - enough to put on all over you partner's body! They vary in size and shape and could be both warmed up or cooled off, depending on what kind of play you want. When they're warm, they're great for a nice and sensual massage. If they're cold, things get a little more kinky and playful... Very smooth and easy to clean! Could be used both alone or with some massage oils and products.
They're usually on 3 for 10 deal, and with the holidays coming they're the perfect gift - even for more vanilla and no so open-minded friends and relatives! If you remove the LH brochure that comes with them, they could never tell they're from such a website. They look completely okay and safe even if someone finds them. You will not be embarrassed, so one less thing to worry about.
Great value for money!
- Pros
- The quantity and the quality of the stones! Look amazing in that bag!
- Cons
- Nothing.
- Bottom line
- An ideal surprise, great for foreplay or just a quiet relaxing evening.

I actually love these. I bought them about a year ago, but lost them before I had the chance to use them.
I just decided a few days ago to buy new ones and give them a go as I have heard a few people comment on how good they are. I have to agree they are amazing and very easy to use.
I would highly recommend them if you love getting a message or giving them. They come in a lovely wee bag as well for neat and tidy safe storage.
- Pros
- Easy to use.
- Cons
- None.
- Bottom line
- Amazing.

It's surprising how amazingly these work.
I think these can be used to sooth your joints as well as pleasure your partner. They're very smooth to the touch and cold.
Once they have been heated, they are just so relaxing. It's a lovely way to spend a night in, and save money on massage treatments. A very simple and pleasuring gift.

- Just how smooth the stones were.

Halfords 60-piece Professional socket set £39.99 (seven years ago; nearest equivalent is 90-piece set at £89.99)Miles covered/time: 11 bikes worth of repair/maintenance/seven years
What's good? For £40 this socket set was a stupendous bargain – 1/4", 3/8" ratchets, metric, imperial, deep reach and spark plug sockets plus screwdriver/allen bits and extension bars have covered most workshop and pitlane tasks.
The quality is impressive – the chrome vanadium hasn't corroded (apart from one that spent a year in a pond – don't ask) and is only now starting to scratch and wear.
The ratchet handles have a nice action, and despite club-fisted use neither has failed. Socket fit is good too.
What's not? The screwdriver bits are a bit useless on a ratchet handle – attempts to use them have resulted in knackered bolts.
The allen bits are good, but the whole set corroded fairly quickly. The clips on the case break on every set I've seen – they're a new design now, though.

Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
As being a student at Landon Middle has been a fun experience and I had alot of good times there as well. The progress has been growing everyday. I think this is a wonderful school!
There seems to be a communication problem with the administration to the parents. Talking with the staff sometimes seems pointless. The problems start from the main office all the way down to the coaching., I have tried to become involed with the school,but can not get over the frustration.
I have never had my child in a school with more fights, more tempers or worse surroundings. The staff do not seem to have a grip on the enviroment nor do I feel even secure sending my child to this school. The teachers and children alike are all on edge. If the students werent so worried about what is around them within the walls of the school perhaps the school would be graded better.
My daughter attended Landon during the 2004-2005 school year, and we were disappointed with the lack of supervision the students have. It was easy for her to get lost in the crowd. I did not feel likeit was safe for her.
My daughter attended Landon for 6th and 7th grade. I, too, regret that she had to attend this school. I have spent my last two years fighting with the school about homework, allowing students to 'make up' the work at the end of each grading period, harrassment from other students, not being notified when my child was struck in the head by another student, and the general lack of concern by the principal and staff for the students. On another note, I was totally appalled after attending an awards ceremony at the school. I can't tell you how many grammatical errors and mispronounced words came out of the principals mouth. I do not consider her a very good role model for the children. If possible, I'd find another school to put your child in. Luckily mine won't be going there this school year. Thank God for the magnet program!
My daughter was a 6 grade student at Landon.I regret the fact she had to attend this school. The harrassment she has experienced from some of the students and one staff memeber in particular is awful. I am constantly at the school following up on her grades and behavior. I am a concerned parent that is very involved with my daughter's academics. The lack of support from the staff is appalling.I don't think she will be attending school there next year, because I dont' believe that a child should have to indure some of the verbal and physical attacks that my daughter has. And when a parent has to chase down school staffing for support of a child there is clearly a large gap in the link between the system and the parents.

Biggest Issues With The BracketRece Davis, Jay Williams, Jay Bilas and Digger Phelps examine teams they believe to be overseeded or underseeded.
The man in charge of the NCAA selection committee insists a win in November is worth the same as a win in March.

• Yet another 4 for UCLA of the Pac-12.
• A 7 for New Mexico of the Mountain West.
Oh, and don't forget that 8 for Kentucky, which had the ball and a chance to beat Florida, the NCAA tournament's top overall seed, in the waning seconds of the SEC title game.
Only Virginia, which wrapped up the ACC tournament Sunday to back up its regular-season title, seemed to get a significant bump from the conference tournaments that polish off teams' résumés before the start of America's favorite office pool -- March Madness.
Ron Wellman, chair of the NCAA selection committee, said the Cavaliers, considered a 2 or 3 on most mock-ups, "continued to impress us throughout the year."
Asked to explain the mediocre seed for a team such as Louisville -- the defending national champion, which has won 12 of 13 and rolled through the AAC tournament, Wellstone said the committee looks at the entire résumé, not just March.
"We look at the total body of work, everything they did from November to March," he said. "Every time we scrubbed that seed, Louisville ended at the same place every time when compared to the people above them."
The people above the Cardinals in the Midwest region, which shapes up as the toughest, include top-seeded and undefeated Wichita State, No. 2 Michigan and No. 3 Duke. Yes, that's three of last year's Final Four teams. The national semifinals are April 5 in Arlington, Texas.
On the 1 line in the West is Arizona, which stayed there despite falling in the Pac-12 title game to UCLA. The Bruins are a 4, same as Michigan State and Louisville -- their fellow power-conference champions.
ESPNU College Basketball
Andy Katz and Seth Greenberg discuss the NCAA tournament seedings, how each region breaks down, which matchups to look out for, who got snubbed and who wins it all.
"They pass everyone's 'eye test,'" Wellman said. "They're playing as well right now as anyone in the country. If you look at the last three or four weeks, they probably would've been seeded differently. When you look at the entire season, then it's a little bit different."
Of course, the numbers are just that -- numbers. In an era of one-and-done, superstar coaches and unending parity, the real drama starts after the brackets are out. That's why Warren Buffett had no problem paying the insurance premium against a $1 billion payoff for anyone who fills out a perfect bracket.
"There's more good teams and less great teams," coach Bill Self said of second-seeded Kansas. "The difference between a 2-seed and a 7- or 8-seed is as narrow as it's ever been."
The last four bubble teams in this year's draw were 12th-seeded NC State and Xavier, which play in the First Four on Tuesday, and 11th-seeded Iowa and Tennessee, which play Wednesday.
Mike and Mike
SMU coach Larry Brown comments on the Mustangs' failure to receive a NCAA tournament bid, whether he would have scheduled differently, preparing for the NIT and more.
Left out of the tournament was SMU of the AAC -- a team almost all the experts had securely in the bracket.
But not the folks in the conference room, who couldn't overcome the Mustangs' strength of schedule: 129.
"When I saw Louisville, I kind of figured that they didn't have a lot of respect for our conference," SMU coach Larry Brown said. "But we only can blame ourselves, that's the way I look at it."
The committee handed out only seven at-large bids to mid-majors after it took 11 in each of the previous two seasons.
The Big 12 led all conferences with seven teams, although winning the conference didn't move Iowa State past the 3 line.
Other conference titles that didn't change much:
• Saint Joe's was the champion of the six-bid Atlantic 10 and got a 10-seed while the team the Hawks beat, VCU, was seeded fifth.
• Providence went from the bubble to Big East champion and was seeded 11th.
Meanwhile, Kansas lost in the semifinals of the Big 12 but remained a 2-seed because of its ranking in the RPI -- No. 3. The Jayhawks have to get through the first weekend without center Joel Embiid, out with a back injury, but could face a third-round game against Mountain West champ New Mexico.
"Off the top of my head, I can't remember exactly what the conversation was about New Mexico," Wellman said. "I can tell you the conversations about New Mexico were very positive."
Mike and Mike
ESPN CBB analyst Dick Vitale covers the NCAA tournament selection, Louisville's seed, Michigan State's chances to win the tournament, whether Oklahoma State could make a run and more.
In the West, Arizona's second game could come against eighth-seeded Gonzaga, which lost its second game as a No. 1 seed last year, or No. 9 Oklahoma State, which has one of the nation's best players in Marcus Smart. The nation's top scorer, Doug McDermott (26.9 points per game), is on the other side of that bracket with No. 3 Creighton.
On Virginia's side of the East bracket is one team nobody wants to play come tournament time -- No. 4 Michigan State, which hadn't won back-to-back games since late January but strung together three to win the nation's second-toughest conference.
"You don't get many teams that are talented, have inside and outside, show toughness, are together, have great chemistry," Spartans coach Tom Izzo said. "I've said three times in my career that I thought we were good enough to get to a Final Four. I thought this team was next in line."

'Shaadi Ke Side Effects' Review Roundup: No Side Effects of Watching This Film!
- Order Reprints
- Text Size
By Ankita Mehta | February 27, 2014 8:41 PM EST
Saket Chaudhary's directorial film "Shaddi Ke Side Effects" has mostly received positive reviews from critics. The film which stars Vidya Balan and Farhan Akhtar in lead roles will release on 28 February.
Shaadi Ke Side Effects
Vidya and Farhan's pairing in the film has received thumbs up from critics. The film which is a sequel to "Pyaar Ke Side Effects" deals with issues and events that happen after marriage.
The film also features Ram Kapoor, Vir Das, Gautami Kapoor, Purab Kohli, Ila Arun and Rati Agnihotri in important roles.
Check out what critics have said about the film:
It's interval n wah wah wah what a romance, chemistry n pairing of Uncle Farhan Akhtar n Aunty Vidya Balan Ji. Superb. #ShadiKeSideEffects
— KRK (@kamaalrkhan) February 27, 2014
Taran Adarsh of Bollywood Hungama said: "SHAADI KE SIDE/EFFECTS is more about rediscovering your partner, post marriage. Given the nature of the subject, there looms the risk of the film veering into a serious zone, but Saket makes sure he peppers the plot with humor and amusing episodes, so much so that you never stop smiling even when the on-screen couple have their share of problems or get into a spat over a trivial issues.
"A rom-com essentially, Saket handles the light moments as well as the dramatic ones with dexterity.
"On the whole, SHAADI KE SIDE/EFFECTS is a delicious take on contemporary relationships. This one's relatable, heart-warming, amusing and thoroughly enjoyable!"
Madhureeta Mukherjee of The Times of India said: "He says it. She disagrees. He reacts. She overacts. He makes mistakes, he says sorry. She makes mistakes, 'he' says sorry. So there! Even geniuses like Socrates and Einstein couldn't crack a fool-proof plan to a 'happy marriage'.
"The director strikes a fine balance between humour and emotion in this slice-of-marriage story. The first half takes a while to catch up, but the dialogues (Arshad Sayed) provide ample laughs, while giving wisdom for wedded bliss. Vir Das in his funky avatar is a riot. Vidya is brilliant and hits a high note in the emotional scenes. The film belongs to Farhan who stuns you with his straight-faced witticisms and plethora of expressions that amuse and move dramatically.
"Single or married, this film will have more of a 'special effect' than 'side effect' on you."
Subhash K Jha in his review said: "The script is written entirely from the male point of view. And if there are any doubts on the film's mildly misogynist tone, then there is Farhan's voiceover to remind which side of marriage the script is on.
"A warm, funny, thought-provoking take on the man-woman equation, director Saket Chaudhary gets it bang on. The chemistry between Farhan and Vidya crackles and hisses with tantalising tension. Brittle and yet supple, the lead pair's chemistry irons out the film's uneven edges. I wish the peripheral characters were written and played better."
"Nope. You can't take your eyes off Farhan and Vidya. They look evenly matched and entirely yummy in their yin and yang yearnings. You do wonder why the script takes them to Australia. But then marriage does make people do strange things, right?
Deepanjana Pal of Firstpost said: "If you've seen Chaudhary's first film, Pyaar Ke Side Effects, and the trailer to Shaadi..., which shows a cool husband and his nagging wife, then the expectations would be different. It turns out that Shaadi... falls smack in the middle. It has some genuinely quirky moments, but it's also half-baked, juvenile and completely lacking in insight.
"Despite having two actors who are happily married in real life, what Shaadi... gives us is a portrait of a resoundingly unhappy marriage between two people who have just one flash of passionate chemistry right at the start of the film. After that, it's just unhappily ever after."
Prasanna D Zore of Rediff.com said: "Shaadi Ke Side Effects (SKSE), written and directed by Saket Chaudhary, who also helmed Rahul Bose-Mallika Sherawat starrer Pyaar Ke Side Effects, opens on this contrived note and meanders for an over-stretched 145 minutes, full of twists and turns, that one has come to so famously associate with soaps produced by Balaji.
"Nobody, though, is trying to take away the moments in SKSE that make you empathise with the ups and downs faced by Siddharth and Trisha but it is more so because Akhtar and Balan make them seem real with their sincerity.
"Surely, Akhtar and Balan, two of the finest actors in contemporary Bollywood, need to be applauded for pulling off SKSE without giving you any side effects once the credits begin to roll."

EOS Bodies / Re: Full Frame Vs Crop Sensor« on: February 19, 2014, 07:46:06 AM »
So as I move into my 3rd year of photography, I find my 500D isn't able to help my take my photography to the next level and its beginning to feel like my L series lenses are begging to shoot on a full frame body.
Buying better gear won't make you a better photographer!!!
The technical IQ of your fotos will improve if you go FF, but it will not help you to improve your composition and lightning, it won't help you to find a creative angle, or to press the shutte just at the right moment. Technology has a habit to go into the way of creativity.
I just moved up the cameratree (no not to FF, just to a better APS-C). I bought a 70D and sold my 350D after more than 7 years. Did the 350 hold me back? No not really; there where situations where the 350 could not keep up with the circumstances (low light, fast moving objects); I missed some shots, but I knew why I missed them, and it was not about me, it was about the camera.
Fact is, you have to learn to live with limitations, even if you go for a 1DX there will be limitiation of what the system can do. I suggest that instead of spending a lot of money for a new FF body, you should spend the money on some books about photography, or you try to shot more with the system you already have and learn more about that.
By the way, is there a way to see some of your work?

Infor Track at Cloud Expo Schedule, June 10, 2014
Transforming Applications into SaaS - 11:00 - 11:35 am
Matt Yanchyshyn is a Solutions Architect at Amazon Web Services who specializes in SaaS.
The software-as-a-service (SaaS) delivery model is growing increasingly popular. Customers like its ease of deployment and the flexibility of a subscription payment model. IT departments enjoy economies of scale and easier operations due to the centralized, multi-tenant architectural model of SaaS. Unfortunately much of the software in use today was written without SaaS or the cloud in mind.
Join this session to learn how to transform traditional software into SaaS. We'll dive into why the SaaS is an appealing software delivery model for today's consumers and businesses, explore architectural best practices and learn how to leverage the scale, innovation and pay-as-you-go model of Amazon Web Services (AWS) to power your SaaS applications in the cloud.
Big Data Is Best Served Fresh: Real-time Analytics in the Cloud - 11:40 - 12:15 pm
Matt Yanchyshyn is a Solutions Architect at Amazon Web Services who specializes in SaaS.
Today's businesses require real-time visibility into vast amounts of data. Security departments need to stay one step ahead of threats through real-time fraud and data breach detection. CFOs want to flag overspending now instead of waiting for the monthly bill to arrive. Marketing departments want to take the collective pulse of consumers so they can dynamically set advertising rates and respond to trends immediately. All of these situations require systems to ingest, store and process streaming data at a huge and ever-growing scale. Until recently this ability was limited to a small subset of companies with deep pockets; however today every business can leverage the low-cost and scale of the cloud to tackle real-time data of any size.
Join this session to learn how to leverage the big data tools available from Amazon Web Services (AWS) to ingest, store and process streaming data at massive scale. We'll review high-level architectures and learn how to build scalable and cost-effective solutions with Amazon Kinesis, Amazon Elastic Map Reduce (EMR) and Amazon Redshift.
What Is the Internet of Things - and How Can It Help My Business? - 1:55 - 2:30 pm
Kyle Lichtenberg is an Amazon Web Services Solutions Architect whose experience with high performance, fault tolerant, and cost efficient infrastructures has helped AWS customers and partners ranging from two person startups to multinational enterprises. Kyle is responsible for designing and developing architectures relating to big data analytics, multi-tiered storage, live video streaming, high-volume Internet of Things data collection, and HA and DR approaches for RDBMS and NoSQL systems.
The concept of the Internet of Things is not new, but it is reaching into new markets and gaining new visibility in a big way. Analysts are citing trillions of dollars of economic impact in the next ten years and big companies are making big plays using big data from a very big number of very small things. In this session, we will demystify the Internet of Things, take a look at a few verticals which are already seeing big success by leveraging its concepts, and see how the cloud can enable your business to effectively make a play in this space without breaking the bank.
Moving Enterprises to the Cloud the Right Way and for the Right Reasons - 4:00 - 4:35 pm
Kyle Lichtenberg is an Amazon Web Services Solutions Architect whose experience with high performance, fault tolerant, and cost efficient infrastructures has helped AWS customers and partners ranging from two person startups to multinational enterprises. Kyle is responsible for designing and developing architectures relating to big data analytics, multi-tiered storage, live video streaming, high-volume Internet of Things data collection, and HA and DR approaches for RDBMS and NoSQL systems.
More and more enterprises are beginning to embrace the cloud. The reasons for doing so range broadly from functional increases in technical agility to overall cost reduction. In this session, we will look at why enterprises are choosing the cloud, the right and wrong way to build a cloud migration strategy, and how to find the 'low hanging fruit' in an enterprise migration.
Creating a Cloud Based DR Solution for Your Enterprise - 4:40 - 5:15 pm
Abdul Sait is a Principal Solutions Architect at Amazon Web Services and a thought leader in Enterprise Cloud Solutions. Abdul has over two decades of experience in enterprise computing and is very passionate about the possibilities cloud computing brings to the enterprise. He guides AWS partners and customers to design and build resilient, reliable and cost optimized solutions on AWS.
Implementation of Disaster Recovery (DR) Site is crucial for business continuity of any enterprise. Cloud computing provides unprecedented capacities to build highly sophisticated architectures for DR, due to the fundamental nature of features like elasticity, scalability, scriptable infrastructure and geographic distribution. Implementing DR sites on AWS using these architectures can result in substantial cost reduction as well as major reduction in recovery time compared to conventional DR sites. In this session, we will discuss strategies to build next generation disaster recovery sites using the cloud, proven disaster recovery architectures on the cloud as well as best practices, tools and techniques get the most out of them.
Infor continues its coverage at Cloud Expo with the following sessions:
General Session | Field Notes from Expeditions in the Cloud - June 10, 10:20 - 10:55 am

We'll discuss expeditions companies have made to the cloud, along with the business drivers, outcomes and technical requirements of delivering large scale, utility computing for any workload, within any organization.
Redefining B2B eCommerce in the Cloud -June 10, 11:40 - 12:15 pm
Marie-Pascale Authie, Solution Consultant at Infor
The challenge for many businesses is building an integrated eCommerce solution that delivers on all fronts - design, usability, customer experience, segmentation, and execution.
This session explain how to apply new approaches that deliver a deeper and richer personalized online experience - with tailored content, marketing messages, and offers based on an individual user's activity and buying behavior. Discuss customer engagement platforms that enable companies to enrich their customer interactions, and scale their market impact by taking advantage of omni-channel sales and distribution opportunities that will power their top and bottom lines.
High Quality, Affordable Care in the Cloud - June 12, 5:35 - 6:10 pm
Sean Wdowiak, Director, Healthcare Solutions at Infor
Healthcare executives like you are challenged with implementing changes from healthcare reform, adapting to value-based reimbursement, and bending the cost curve. At the same time, you are expected to maintain a high level of patient satisfaction and deliver quality outcomes. Your operational and administrative systems need to support your expanded responsibilities by transforming traditional business processes and arming decision makers with sound, insightful information.
The systems you use today should have the power to take you into the future, while ensuring that your care units, departments and facilities run efficiently and effectively. But finding a way to modernize your healthcare organization quickly, easily, and cost-effectively hasn't been an easy thing to do.
Learn how to overcome your challenges with cloud solutions that are comprehensive, healthcare-specific, proven and secure - so you can focus on delivering high quality, affordable care.
Powering the Mobile Enterprise - June 12, 2:50 - 3:25 pm
Dan Sholler, Vice President, Platform and Technology at Infor
Delivering modern application experiences requires a cloud based architecture that unlocks the silos of process and information within the organization. These capabilities must be resident in the cloud, and easily consumed by mobile applications. Join us as we discuss a common approach to access application capability, end to end process automation, and information stores designed to enable modern applications experiences, which are mostly or exclusively mobile.

Tarik Taman, General Manager, HCM & Cloud ERP at Infor
Human Capital Management (HCM) solutions in the Cloud are spawning a wide spectrum of services that are revolutionizing the workplace for employers and employees.

General Electric (GE) has been a household name for more than a century, thanks in large part to its role in making households easier to run. Starting with the light bulb invented by its founder, Thomas Edison, GE has been selling devices ("things") to consumers throughout its 122-year history. Last week, GE announced that it is officially leaving that job to others. While the lighting division will stay, GE will now turn its attention to selling industrial machinery and analytics as a service t...

How do you know when a technology has become mainstream? A good clue may be when politicians start talking about it on the campaign trail and with mainstream media. David Cameron, the UK prime minister, was the latest, indicating that the world was now on "fast-forward" with the Internet of Things (IoT) ushering in the new industrial revolution. No mention of IoT targeted at the masses would be complete without the clichéd example of the communicating fridge. While it is easy to get caught up in...

Machine-to-machine (M2M) technology and the resulting Internet of Things are leading us inexorably toward everything-as-a-service (XaaS). As more things get connected, the range of service opportunities expands. And as those services are presented online, they become available for use, re-use and re-purposing. At first thought, the idea of more connected devices suggests simply that there will be more devices around, and as such, more products for manufacturers to make and sell. That's true, bu...

The Leap Year
[dropcap1]H[/dropcap1]ere's what I know about The Leap Year… they hail from the world's most isolated city, they play picturesque indie-rock and have an undisclosed affinity with 1980's television commercial jingles.
Multiple vocals with a distinctly Australian soul, The Leap Year formed in 2006 after longstanding relationships between friends. The group quickly began playing shows around Western Australia all the while preparing for their debut full-length record With A Little Push, A Pattern Appears. Now often playing alongside international heavyweights Spoon, Low, Swervedriver and the like, the band have now released their second album The Narrowing. An album of stories – heartbreak, want and boyhood dreams – in no particular order.
