Ferrari Team Principal Stefano Domenicali considers Red Bull duo Mark Webber and Sebastian Vettel a joint threat for the Formula One title.
Ferrari's Fernando Alonso leads the Drivers' Championship by eight points heading into the season-ending Abu Dhabi Grand Prix on Sunday, but Domenicali said the fact that Red Bull have two drivers left in the title race gives them an edge.
"We need to be focused because they (Red Bull) are very strong and as I said before I want to congratulate with Red Bull because they deserve the (constructors) title, they did the best job of everyone," Domenicali said.
"They have already taken home one title and they will fight with both drivers for the second one so we need to consider that. For me it is great that we are there at the last race to fight with them, it's fantastic."
Domenicali said he always felt the title race would come down to the season finale.
"I have to be very honest with you, I was totally focused on the fact that the championship would have been finished in Abu Dhabi, I'm speaking for the drivers of course," he said.
"I was not convinced that the championship would have been finished by here because unless there was a problem with reliability we know Red Bull is very, very strong."
And according to the Ferrari boss, Saturday's qualifying is of equal importance to the race itself.
"We need to do a perfect qualifying, as you know that is very, very important, fundamental, and we need to do the best that we can," he said.
"We need to wait up until the last metre because reliability is a big point that everyone will be worried about, not on the engine, on everything, so that will be a very long race in Abu Dhabi."

I would like hear some of your Disc Golf Clichés. And whether or not you think they are Valid. I'll start with the two I've heard repeatedly since I started playing.
1. The prettier the disc the better it flies. – May be Valid – Actually I seem to throw them better. Probably because I don't want to lose the pretty discs.
2. Drive for show. Put for Dough. – Invalid – Bad drives will have you out of contention for dough before you even get to put.

Annual Physicals Are Necessary for Children and Teens
Note: This article is over 60 days old, and may contain information that is out of date, or has been superseded by newer information.
This question comes up all the time: "My child is up to date on shots. What is the need for a check-up?" Shots are not the only reasons for annual check-ups. In fact, the American Academy of Pediatrics recommends yearly physicals from ages two to six years, at eight and ten years, and then annually thereafter. Here are important reasons why.
Young Children. While children between ages two and six are usually not big eaters, it is still important to look at their growth and diet. Kids who are overweight by age five are much more likely to be overweight as teenagers and adults. This predisposes them to all the related adult health risks such as diabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease, and strokes. By plotting weight, height, and Body Mass Index (BMI), we can be sure they are growing appropriately.
Young children develop rapidly. Children need to be screened for language development and fine and gross motor problems that, if found, can be addressed before the child starts school.
During well visits we can also reinforce car or booster seat use and gun and water safety. Accidents, including drowning, are the leading cause of death for kids two to six.
Teens. Adolescence has its own set of problems for parents and teens. Puberty comes at different times for different kids, which can cause concerns of growing too soon or not soon enough. The doctor can talk about what to expect during puberty: increased appetite, moodiness, increased sleep requirement, and, for girls, periods. Discussions can be started about peer pressure, cigarettes, alcohol, drugs, driving, and difficulties at school. Your doctor may want to speak with your teenager in private.
Also, the doctor will screen your child for curvature of the spine (scoliosis), anemia, high cholesterol, diabetes, depression, and other familial diseases.
New Vaccines. And while you may think that your child is up to date on vaccines, recommendations are changing all the time. In the last two years, new vaccines for meningococcal disease (Menactra) and human papilloma virus (Gardisil) have been recommended for eleven- to twelve-year-olds. A second chicken pox vaccine is now required for kindergarten. Just last year, flu shots were recommended for all children between six months and eighteen years.
Taking your child to his or her physician works for health in so many ways. Make an appointment today.

Yesterday in Hackettstown, New Jersey, Mars Chocolate flipped the switch of their shiny new 2 MW photovoltaic system. This pic may depict the popular candies catching some rays next to the new solar panels, but don't worry, Mars still guarantees that M&Ms won't melt before they reach your mouth! The Solar Garden sits on 18 acres of property that was beforehand just a vacant lot. Now enough electricity for one-fifth of the Hackettstown factory's needs is produced from the system, meaning that every fifth M&M you eat was made courtesy of the sun. So gather up four friends and dole out those colorful candies, because each one you eat will be green(er).
The Mars Chocolate PV system is owned by PSEG Solar Source, who is also working on a number of other large solar installations around the country. PSEG Solar Source will be repaid for the system through a 30 percent federal tax credit, the sale of electricity to Mars and the sale of solar renewable energy credits to other power-generation companies. The Hackettstown factory, with its 28,000 panels, now has the largest solar system in NJ operated by a food manufacturer.
Yesterday's flip-switching ceremony was attended by the famous trio of M&Ms, Victoria Mars (ombudsman for the company) and a crowd of 150 people. Engineering for the Solar Garden was performed by Juwi Solar Inc. and the panels were manufactured by First Solar. Emissions are expected to be reduced to the equivalent of removing 190 cars of the road annually.

If they are selling the solar RECs to other power generating companies, then the claim to be solar powered is passed along to the buyer. Every fifth M&M is not solar powered. (This is similar to how one buys wind REC in order to have wind power at their home even though the wind farm maybe outside of the local or regional power grid supplying your house.)
The sale of solar RECs is a valuable tool to help finance solar installations, but too many installer companies and articles like this can mislead when they don't make it clear that when RECs are sold the owner has rights to claims of solar power and the owner of the panels can no longer claim to be solar powered.
Additionally, the power generating companies that are buying the RECs are probably trying to meet Renewable Portfolio Standard requirements to purchase a certain percent of renewable power. Buy selling your RECs to them, they don't have to build their own solar installations since it's cheaper to purchase those rights from others.

Yukio Mishima is quite possibly my all-time favourite writer. I read his short work, Patriotism, in high school and was compelled to draw a comic which recounted a nightmare I had inspired by the story as an art assignment. (Strange, but true!) I did a sculptural body of work three years ago inspired by my favourite Mishima novel, The Temple of the Golden Pavilion. Right now, I am reading Mishima's third novel, Thirst for Love. Mishima's work is characterized by it's memorable, often dark characters; he is infamous for his sensational suicide by seppuku in 1970, which he committed shortly after completing his epic tetralogy, The Sea of Fertility. For those of you not familiar with Mishima, take a look at his

This recipe was an excellent starter but I modified it to my taste. I was afraid that this recipe was too spicy and reduced some of the spiciness. It still has a kick to it. I made this for a Chili Cookoff and it won 2nd place(pretty good for getting there late). Here are my changes: 1) 3 (15 ounce) cans chili beans in mild sauce, NOT drained. 2) 1 (15 oz) can chili beans in medium sauce, 3) I omitted the celery and tabasco sauce, 4)1 jalapeno instead of chile peppers, 5) 3 tablespoons of bacon bits, 6) 1 cup of beer 7) Instead of using 2 (28oz) cans of diced tomatoes with juice, I used 3 (14 1/2 oz) can of diced tomatoes and 1 (14 1/2 oz) can of diced tomatoes with basil/oregano/garlic. 8) I cooked this in a slow cooker for 8 hours the day before, let it sit overnight and heated it up and served it the next day with cheese on top. I also froze the left overs and it taste even better!!
Very disappointed. I hope he didn't make this down here in El Paso last year when Purdue played in the sunbowl and try to pass it off as authentic. Most of the ingredients are from a can and taste like it. If you want it truly hot, better add more "hot sauce" as he puts it. Not trying to be critical, but this isn't authentic chile. Pass on this and try another chile recipe that has the word "Texas" in it.

I can't praise this chili enough! The meat melted in your mouth, the flavors tingled nicely all the way to your toes. I just won a chili cookoff with it so that might be a large part of the reason. The judges and the crowd loved it. I ran out within 30 minutes of it being opened to the public to taste. I did make a few changes: I used 3 lbs of cubed chuck steak in place of the ground chuck because I really like a meaty chili (obvisously so did the judges), I cooked 4 slices of bacon, then crumbled for the bacon bits and sauted the celery, onion and garlic in the drippings. My biggest piece of advice is prepare it the day before, let cool overnight, degrease really well and then reheat; the chili really developes a great flavor by doing this. I used my crockpot on low to keep it warm the day I served it.
This is an excellent chili recipe. Tons of intresting flavors. Just a few changes because I didn't have everything. I used roasted red peppers enstead of fresh. Used chicken broth enstead of beer. At first it was too spicy(not for me but for my husband and kids) so I went online for a quick fix. Turns out you just need to puree a can of pineapple to tone down the spice. I was pretty leary about this so I added it slowly, tasting it each time. I did end up using the whole can and it was perfect. All the flavors without the burn. Thanks for the great recipe.
This is the best chili I've ever made! I followed the recipe exactly except I used my croc pot. I browned the meat and then threw everything in the croc pot. Delicious!
This was okay chili. The Italian sausage gave it a nice flavor, but hubby and I didn't care for it. Didn't have bacon bits. Great for a crowd. It made so much that I had to use 2 crock pots... make sure to use a really large stew pot! As far as the list of ingredients, too lengthy and too much prep time for the end result. I've had as good or better chili with half the time, work, and cost! Overall, this was decent but it didn't knock our socks off. The list of ingredients was just too long, I was tired just getting to the end of it...(my thought was, whew! did I forget anything?!!!) Nothing special, I won't make this again. I even had to throw out the leftovers. I didn't even bother to add the cost of all the ingredients!!! Overall, this was very disappointing. Thanks for posting so we could try anyway.
Don't listen to the condescending reviewer from Texas. This is a great chili. All Texans think they're stringy meat and watery sauce chili is the best and they have to make fun of other chilis. The rest of the world wouldn't recongnize TX chili as chili, so go with this recipe.
EDIT - Still the best chilli ever. My changes include using only 2 cans of beans, using chunks of steak (or stewing beef) instead of sausage, and if you like to keep'em guessing - add a nice tablespoon of spicy brown mustard. I've made this chilli over 10 times now and I have to make double batches because every member of my family requests it.

How To Buy A Hockey Stick
The hockey stick is an extension of the hockey player's arm. This means the stick has to fit properly, and the length, curve and lie angle need to match both your size and body type as well as the type of game you play.
Shaft types
The shaft you choose is largely a matter of personal choice. Shafts come in many different materials for sticks with different weights and durabilities.
Wood sticks
Modern shafts come in all sorts of materials, including fiberglass, aluminum, carbon-graphite, kevlar and titanium. The blades are usually still made of wood and are attached to the composite stick with glue. These materials make for a lighter stick, but are generally more expensive than wood.
Return To Top
Blades are usually made of wood and attached to the composite stick with glue. Some blades have Kevlar wraps on them.
Determining your blade angle
Hockey sticks are identified as "left," "right," or "straight." This refers to the curve of the blade.

Overcoming Sleep Issues
18 comments:
Thanks for this post, very timely for us. Our girl has always been a great sleeper, but since starting prep at school she is really struggling to fall asleep, its genuine, she really feels tired and says she wants to go to bed but just cant nod off. (Once she is alseep an Earthquake wouldnt wake her). I feel so sorry for her, I remember as a kid (Im NT) lying in bed for what seemed like hours trying to sleep but, just as you describe, the thoughts and events of the day prevented it. I think this issue of sleep is not much different b/w NT and AS. I think the main problem for our girl is the nightmares and being on her own - she hates being on her own at any time. I find I have to tell her what noises around the house she might hear, "I.e, The dishwasher is on, dads showering in 30 minutes". We have tried many things but in the end its something we have to live with, I just feel for her. We let her watch a movie in bed on her little ipod because trying to sleep when its just not going to happen is Hell. I just wish she wastn so afraid of everything all the time, it must be so difficult for her, and all I can offer is reassurance.

Two things that helped me as a kid was surrounding myself with my stuffed animal guards . I slept wedged in the middle of a fuzzy hug . When I got older, reading about how to create lucid dreaming to control them made them less scary...you can train yourself to do it .
Having a notebook to write down those annoying ruminating thoughts helped as well since my brain tended to go in circles . (you can find a pen with a little light on it and keep it by the bed . ) I still can't stop all the rehearsing imaginary conversations that I might have the next day...(infective because those we interact with never seem to follow my well planned scripts) .
The best solution was working overnights...now I can sleep 8-12 hours, just not on the rest of the worlds schedule . I think some light yoga stretching and relaxation tapes while going to sleep or white noise machines (or a fan) really help with those spooky house noises ).

Thanks for this post, and your whole blog!
I am mum of 4yr old daughter with Asp, and sleeping has always been such a problem for her - right from when she was born. We haven't had a full night's sleep in nearly 5 years!
She has lots of trouble 'winding down', and also severe separation anxiety - one of us is in her little bed with her most nights. We don't know whether giving in and sleeping with her, to get her to sleep most of the night, is a good long term strategy - do we just accept that it's what she needs, or do we get firm and try to separate???

Unless you plan to spend the rest of your parenting days sleeping (or being otherwise connected to) your daughter, you'll need to overcome those separation anxiety issues. You'll also find that not spending quality couple-time together will eventually take its toll.
Obviously you can't simply "dump your daughter and run". You'll have to have a plan and it may take several weeks to conclude.
There's no need to get firm. A gentle routine should make it possible to separate without too much trouble.
Start by doing more or less what you already do and establish a firm routine. You'll probably want to read a bedtime story and then lay near your daughter while she falls asleep. Make the first rule that you don't talk after storytime. Just lie there quietly and refuse to be engaged in conversation. Also, make sure that the bedroom door is left open (this will become important later).
After a couple of days, don't lie down but simply sit on the bed and progressively sit further and further towards the end of the bed. Again, do not engage your daughter in conversation after storytime.
The next step is to put a chair in the room and sit on that, near the bed. Each night, you should move the chair slightly further away from the bed and towards the door. Eventually you'll be sitting the doorway.
Wait until your daughter is comfortable with this move before starting on the next step because it's difficult.
Move the chair outside the doorway but keep it in sight. Then move to half-sight, then to being able to see her only if you lean back.
You'll eventually move completely out of sight but should be in earshot.
This would be a good time to have your partner join you on another chair so that you can talk quietly. Your daughter will be reassured by the sound of your voices and (hopefully) won't feel the need to keep calling for you. Again: do not engage her in conversation.
You should be able to slowly start moving your chairs further away towards the living areas of the house but be sure to keep talking.

Great post. This is something I deal with as an Aspie and with a son who is an Aspie too. I think the racing thoughts are the toughest parts for us. I go through my day over and over again, especially if there were any social interactions. It is quite stressful. I also think up wonderful things at night (I write poetry and essays so it seems that everything comes into my head at night- I think things through all day long, but I would like to be able to "turn it off" at night. My son just can't settle down. I have to get him away from the computer and such before bedtime or he'll just go through the game he just played over and over in his mind sometimes, but I think worries of the day keep him up a lot and his OCD.

Wow! as I read your post a question i thought had been answered is stirring in my mind again. Is my son aspie, not just ADHD/SPD. He has been dx'd with the latter, but laypeople sometimes tell me (insist) that he seems more ASD/aspie/pdd-nos. As I read your post, so much of what you talk about rings true of my son, I wonder...
Thx for the helpful sleep issue ideas.

My son, asperger/adhd diagnosis, definitely struggles turning off his brain to sleep. I like your suggestions! We have noticed that he tends to sleep better if he falls asleep to his music or with a book. But once he has a nightmare, it's hard to transition him back to sleep. I'm going to try putting a light by his bed as you suggested teaching him some new ways to perceive bad dreams. He also has to sleep completely wrapped up in his blankets, from his whole head down to his toes. It's always been disconcerting to me, but he insists on it! Thanks again for the tips!

I enjoy your blog. You write very useful information. It's debatable about whether or not I have Aspergers. I know without a doubt, however, that I am sensory defensive and have a sensory motor disorder. I have had sleep issues all my life. Everything you wrote fit me to a tee. I have to read myself to sleep. Otherwise it's futile. And if I wake up in the middle of the night I have to read myself BACK to sleep. Any sound, light, smell can wake me up. The feeling on my skin can wake me up. Sometimes I have to get up and take a shower before I can go to sleep. Or change the pillowcases. The past few years I can't read fiction, it's too interesting. I have to read moderately stimulating nonfiction. I have learned a couple of new tricks recently. If I wake up in the middle of the night, I can put a clean pillowcase over my eyes to shut out all light and press pillows against my ears. Besides shutting out sound, the pressure of the pillows tight against my head is calming.

My son also has had trouble falling asleep. All his anxieties come out at bedtime. He just started hating to be alone and his roommate little brother usually deserts him for my bed. Usually it will be almost 9 PM and I have to warn him that if he isn't sleeping within 30 minutes he isn't going to school the next day. It works every time. Except once when he was hungry. He does need a heavyweight blanket and I turn on a story cd to quiet his mind. Usually the ones for his age have some scary parts and that just makes it worse. He also has white noise although that hasn't seemed to help.

I have a 4 year old son, who is currently undergoing assessment for High Functioning Autism. He ticks the majority of the boxes for Aspergers and it is likely he will get diagnosed with it.
My son has never had a problem sleeping, quite the opposite. However, he has always had a strict routine when going to bed and any deviation from it, would disturb him.
We have to put the teddy's in the right place and they have to be neat before he will rest. He has had a music piano playing in the back ground in his bedroom for near 12 months and more recently a fan, due to the heat.
We have had times, when he has got up in the early hours and we have found him to be asleep outside our bedroom door on the floor, although this had not happened for a while.
However, since starting kindy a few weeks ago, we have been getting up in the morning to find him asleep on the sofa in the living room. We had assumed he had got up maybe half an hour before us and as we were still sleeping, he took the time to rest. That was until recently, when I got up in the early hours 2:30am to get a drink, to find him asleep on the sofa. I carried him back to bed, but an hour later he was back on the sofa. This went on for several nights and it concerned me, that he could harm himself, whilst being young and alone in the living area.
For the following 2 nights, we decided to secure him in his room, in a bid to break the habit. This came with yet more problems. He would scream until we opened the door, he would switch his electric piano on really high and with other children asleep in the house it was disturbing everyone else. He would rattle the door and bang on it, adding to the noise. He would also switch his bedroom light on. After 2 nights of no sleep, it became unbearable. We had wondered whether it could be his bed, maybe he had outgrown it. So we purchase a new bed and made a big sing and dance about his new BIG BOY bed. He was/is delighted with his bed and loves getting in it at night and falls asleep instantly. However, he is still getting up in the early hours to sleep on the sofa. I have now taken up residence myself on the sofa, to enable me to take him back to his room. As you can appreciate, this isn't ideal. But I am hoping, in time he will realize that getting up is not going to get him anywhere, other than a trip back to bed. I speak very little to him when I do take him back and with a very low tone, to ensure I do not wake him. The routine of him sleeping on the sofa, seems to stem more so since he started kindy. It is difficult to tell if he is conscious and aware when he gets up, because he cooperates and has his eyes open.

Hi, My son is 7 and has struggle with separation anxiety since he is 9 months.
I have try this and he gets very agresive if I don't talk back to him.
Unfortunately he sleeps in the middle of me and my husband which is getting harder on my body. I try to offer toys in exchange for him to try but he tells me he can't because of the monsters in his brain. The times he has try he always comes to my bed as soon as I turn the lights off. He takes melatonin but even with this he doesn't sleep well at all if he is on his bed because he is constantly checking on us so be midnight he is back in my bed.... Any ideas on this, I really need help

You forgot to mention quitting your job and living life on your terms. People with Aspergers are the normal ones. Its the people calling them not-normal that theirs a problem with. Think about it. Why would someone care what someone does in a free and open society when they are not harming themselves or anyone else for that matter. Sounds to me like a lot of so called "normal" people have control issues.
Aspgergers people have a different circadian clock, that is out of harmony with the insane society. If they follow the cycles of the sun they turn out fine. Anything else really is a psychotic break from reality. Such a shame we label the normal and smart ones as crazy.
Its the same reason they are most likely more afflicted by seasonal affective disorder. Its not that their lazy, their body is adapting in harmony with the environment i.e. cycles of the sun. Theres a lot going on physiologically here so I would not expect the author to understand. Most psycho-chologists dont even know what they are dealing with. You should probably stop writing about stuff like this on the internet.

I Completely agree with Anonymous. My ex is a teacher and thinks she knows what's best for our son. I have lived with being aspie my whole life. In fact I didn't even understand why everyone else was weird until I was about 30 and learnt about Asperger's!
I hate the fact that she insists on getting extra 'assistance' for our son in school and labelling him as different.. Just let him be and he will be fine. I turned out OK.

My 4 year old son has recently started complaining that he can't sleep because his pillow is scratchy, which you mentioned in your blog. I have changed the pillow and it's not working! The trouble is once he gets an idea in his head it is really difficult to shift it. So you have any suggestions I could try? Many thanks

Elk County Conservation District watershed specialist Kim Bonfardine debuted new monitoring equipment that will be used for the Elk County Monitoring Project during Monday night's regular meeting.
"I'm pretty excited as we are trying to get things going quickly because of all the equipment that is coming in," Bonfardine said.
One of the items presented was a data logger that will go directly into the waterway to measure the conductivity, flow and temperature.
Each data logger will be encased in a housing unit, built by interns, to protect it from weather and debris.
"We will start deploying the data loggers this week and the YSI's [satellite telemetry]systems will follow," Bonfardine said. "We will not be putting all of the monitors out at one time-- rather we will watch where there are the most drilling activities taking place and make decisions based on that information. Some of the YSI units will be placed in drinking water watersheds, as this is the No. 1 priority. I am working with water authorities to learn as much as possible about their source drinking water so this info can be used in designing the monitoring plan."
Each data logger will manually need to be checked every couple of weeks.

Report: Chemicals M&A Activity Continues to Rebound
11:50 AM MDT | May 20, 2011 | Vincent Valk
The total value of announced chemicals M&A deals in the first-quarter stood at $41 billion, according to a report by PriceWaterhouseCoopers (PwC; New York), a consulting firm. The $41 billion figure only counts deals valued at higher than $50 million. The rise was expected, as "we are finally seeing deal flow from pending transactions that have been in the pipeline for several quarters," PwC says. While total deal value rose, deal volume actually declined 16%, to 293 announced transactions. Nevertheless, PwC is optimistic about the rest of this...

It's hard to believe that it's been a year since the big April 2011 Amazon Web Services outage. But we figured the anniversary of that painful week would be a good time to provide an update on our experiences since we got knocked offline for several days.
When Keith Smith and I launched BigDoor almost three years ago, we chose to drive our business using many of the same principles from Eric Reis' Lean Startup. We iterate on our product weekly — continually innovating on behalf of our customers. We run a very small team, and always look to reduce waste.
With regard to operations, from the onset I was dead-set on minimizing the time we spent in rack-stack-and-cable mode, in order to maximize our product focus time. Amazon Web Services allowed us to do that, accelerating our time to market and giving us a level of agility that only server virtualization can.
Looking back over the past twelve months, and revisiting the changes we made in response to the outage, brings some worthwhile observations to light:
- AWS took action to address their communication and transparency issues. (See Keith Smith's original guest post on GeekWire: Amazon.com's real problem isn't the outage, it's the communication)
- If you need or want what Elastic Block Store provides, options haven't changed, but risk may have.
- EBS IOPs performance continues to be the primary concern that has persisted for us and every other AWS EBS user I've talked to.
AWS communication: We now have recurring meetings with our AWS account rep and a great solutions architect. These meetings have been huge for us, largely because we get a sense for what's going on inside Amazon.com, and to a lesser degree because we can get answers to myriad questions that would take forever to iron out over email.
But that's just us. (I'd love your comments if you've had a different experience). In any case, there are still two big things that Amazon could do that I think would make a huge difference:
- Publish what they did over the last year to address what happened, referencing their own root cause analysis and its listed remedies.
- Make some form of their product roadmap available publicly, or at least to all AWS customers.
For the #2 ask, we all get the idea behind keeping this kind of thing under wraps and away from competitor's prying eyes. But there must be a low-risk way to give us all a better idea for what's coming, and when.
Amazon is in the unique position to not have to worry about competitors catching up – as far as I'm aware, no one is even close to providing the breadth of services they are. (Related story: Stat of the day: A third of all Internet users visit a site that uses Amazon's infrastructure)
Elastic Block Store options: If you want the convenience, persistence and back-up-ability of EBS drives, not much has changed as a result of last year's outage. No new mitigating product or features are available. There's always ephemeral storage, which you can even get better performance from via software RAID. But for us, ephemeral-backed instances start too slowly (2-3x, in our testing) to handle the needs of our spiky traffic and app host scaling groups, and using non-persistent RAID storage on our database hosts doesn't fly for various reasons.
Making EBS resources cheaper and easier to manage between regions would go a long way to help, as one potential option here.
While we took a number of smaller steps in reaction to the outage, ultimately we've still got a same-ish EBS risk profile; we chose to continue our break-neck pace of iteration and product development, betting on Amazon's ability to prevent this from happening again. A year later, that bet seems to have paid off.
Has the overall risk of using EBS changed? See my #1 ask above.
Elastic Block Store Input Operations Per Second performance: I attended and spoke at Percona's MySQL Live conference last week (slides, if you're interested), and amongst all the discussion around sharding and database performance, there was plenty around AWS and virtualization in general. The big gripe, almost a foregone conclusion in many minds at this point, is still that Elastic Block Store Input Operations Per Second (EBS IOPs), particularly writes, are slow and that their only predictable aspect is their unpredictability. EBS IOPs performance is highly variable.
We do a lot to mitigate this (caching, buffering, etc). We sharded our database systems last year, going from a single monolithic primary database host to 32 sharded nodes, and we're testing a new real-time custom BI platform, all built with help from EBS. In terms of HTTP requests our API handles in a couple months the amount of traffic it did in the year prior to the outage, with low latency (~.4s avg). But we're still bitten on occasion by transient, bigger dips in EBS IOPs performance.
Has performance in aggregate actually gotten better over the last year, though? See my #1 ask above.
My guess is that Amazon is working hard to address the IOPs performance issues, but it would be great if we all knew – see my #2 ask above.
Even in consideration of the insane new Washington state taxes we're having to pay now for AWS usage, the result of horrible decision-making on the part of our short-term-thinking legislators, it's been a great year, and 2012 is looking even better for both BigDoor and for AWS.
So, my final request for Amazon Web Services: how about a little retrospective, and look ahead from your side?

Re: MoonSpider's Harold
nice Animation What kind of games is this ?
Re: MoonSpider's Harold
I think the easiest way to describe it is "side-scrolling puzzle platformer", but that's not quite it. Basically you're a guardian angel guiding an incompetent runner, while also setting traps for the competition.
Re: MoonSpider's Harold
Very good! The animation is fluid and fun and makes sense. The designs are appealing and the character modeling is nicely done. Thanks for posting the video. Enjoyed what you had to show!

Re: MoonSpider's Harold
Thanks Charles!
Wish I could take credit for the designs... I'm "okay" when it comes to characters, but nowhere near this level. Modeling them was fun, though.

Tracey, what a beautiful room. One question, what color white paint did you use? I'm needing to repaint some rooms and there are so many different colors of white.
- January 25, 2012 at 9:27 AM
- Tracey said...
The paint color is called Distant Star and it is available at Home Depot under the Glidden brand {it used to be under the Freshaire brand which our Home Depot no longer carries, not sure if that is nation wide or not}. It's a great color and I have used it in several rooms in my home!

New follower! Your floors and colors are so similar to mine. Beautiful room! Thank you for sharing the wall color. So many variations to white. I am adding lots of gray and love it. Do you paint your ceilings white or the same color as the walls? I'm on the fence about that.. trying to decide on the perfect white for my ceiling.

Use of a dangerous synthetic cathinone[link to drug facts] drug called alpha-pyrrolidinopentiophenone (alpha-PDP), popularly known as "Flakka," is surging in Florida and is also being reported in other parts of the country, according to news reports. Alpha-PVP is chemically similar to other synthetic cathinone drugs popularly called "bath salts," and takes the form of a white or pink, foul-smelling crystal that can be eaten, snorted, injected, or vaporized in an e-cigarette or similar device. The drug has been linked to deaths by suicide as well as heart attack. It can also dangerously raise body temperature and lead to kidney damage or kidney failure.

Campaign for a Healthy Alcohol Marketplace Newsletter
Advocates who want to loosen or eliminate various alcohol regulations claim our laws are "antiquated, byzantine, or from the Prohibition era." Their conclusion is that alcohol should be sold in our free market system just like any other legal product. How do we answer such claims? We need to help clarify the issue by stating that all products sold for human consumption must be regulated for public health and safety; that the US markets are highly regulated; that government interference is often needed to keep markets competitive and free of monopolistic domination.
