The Rosary is a Scripture-based prayer to help us remember the mysteries of our salvation, and to thank and praise God for them.
There are twenty mysteries reflected upon in the Rosary, and these are divided into:
The repetition in saying the Rosary leads one into restful and contemplative prayer related to each Mystery. Also the gentle repetition of the words helps us to enter into the silence of our hearts, where Christ's spirit dwells. The Rosary can be said privately or with a group.

Historical Traveler Reviews Renaissance Nashville Hotel
Very nice hotel
This was a good stopping point between Dallas and Cleveland, and travelling with teenage daughters, we were glad to find a hotel that was easy to find and offered excellent room service to tired travellers. Arriving at approximately 6 p.m., the valet parking in front of the hotel can be confusing to say the least...my advice would be to head for the private structure directly across the street ($5 every time you exit [or $5/for 24 hours--we paid $3], compared to $18 valet--although that is a daily rate). If you choose the structure, park on the 4th floor, cross the sky bridge that connects with the 3rd floor of the hotel, take the elevator to the lobby and check in...then you can head back for your luggage after you've checked out your room. Otherwise, if you valet park, you'll need to tip the valet for unloading you, and oddly enough (the valet service is a private company), they take the luggage just inside the lobby and hand it over to the bell boys, who you'll need to tip again...so I recommend the structure.... In any case, as it happened, the first room we were put into had a non functioning toilet (we never take luggage up when we check in...we just head straight up, check the room, run the water, flush the toilet, etc.) -- found out about the toilet immediately, called down and asked for another room (they offered to send an engineer up but we declined). The staff accomodated our request and moved us to another room immediately. Everything functioned fine in the new room. We ordered room service; it was delivered promptly and the quality was suprisingly good. Probably the fastest and best room service we've ever experienced. Likewise for the room service the following morning. Very nice hotel. And a really great elevator...I'd read a review on trip advisor that criticized it...but, being from LA I guess, we really appreciate an elevator that gets you where you want to go and doesn't waste time (ok it drops like a bomb...but its not a problem)...And despite the fact that our stay was on a Friday night, the hotel was filled with nice quality people and very quiet. We recommend.
Very comfortable and friendly
Got our room on priceline for $80 using Bidding for Travel. Great hotel especially for seeing downtown. Upon checking into hotel, valet service (Charles) very friendly and gave us helpful tips. Room and view just lovely and hotel very clean. Concierge service also very helpful with directions which were needed due to freeways being closed down. Felt very safe in hotel and the area. good healthclub and pool area. Can't go wrong staying here.
Odd rules in Tn
Odd rules at the Nashville Renaissance.
We tried to arrange a rollaway bed for our 7 year old daughter to sleep on as we have 3 children.
According to the hotel we cannot have more than 4 people in a room, not very user friendly for any family over 2 children.
They stated fire rules, fair enough, however having a family sleep in two different hotels is not an option and this is what they suggested!
I am disabled and need my eldest's assistance sometimes.
It looks like we will be staying elsewhere, shame the conference is being held at the Renaissance.
This was to be the start a family trip of a lifetime.
A poor start.
Best place in Nashville
Everyone at the Renaissance was so kind. The hotel is beautiful, we stayed on the 21st floor and what a beautiful view of the city. I wouldn't want to stay anywhere else. We went to the Renaissance during the CMA Fest for the first time to Nashville and the staff was so very kind and helpful with all our questions. Thanks again Renaissance for making it so much fun
Beautiful facility
The rooms were wonderful, the view was great and the service fantastic.
The location can't be beat for seeing downtown. You can walk to Rymansand the Gaylord center, Eat at the Palm or Morton's. We even walked to a Titans game from the hotel. The food was adequate in the hotel, but the service in the restaurant was a little underwhelming.
Would stay again.
Nice view, but underwhelmed..
We arrived for one night - New Year's Eve. The hotel was easy to find by car and the valet services were very good. Check-in was a nightmare as they had the wrong information for my reservation. They had split the charge/reservation between my husband and me. When I had called and changed the reservation, they only changed part of it. The check-in person was very nice and helpful, but of course it had me worried that they would charge me extra nights. (They did not by the way, however, roomservice tried to make me pay cash because they kept trying to ring it under the wrong account due to the mixup - that took 30 minutes to straighten out). Our room was on the 22nd floor with a spectacular view. The elevators are AWFUL! G-Forces are not something I want or need in an elevator! Amenities were normal for a hotel of that type.
However, the rooms were very loud. I could hear everything the people said next door and in the hallway. You can imagine what that is like on New Year's Eve! Overall the hotel was okay, however, we will not stay there in the future. If staying downtown or near downtown, we will try Loew's Vanderbilt.
A trip advisor user,
We stayed at the renaissance the weekend of Dec12th. We drove down from chicago and advised the Hotel that we would be arriving in the am, we were told it was not a problem as we pre-paid and our room would be awaiting us. When we arrived we were told our room was cancelled for being a no-show, this was quickly rectified and we were given a room. The hotel was very nice but upon returning to our room we found that it had never been cleaned. We spoke to the hotel desk who stated they would look into the matter, well they never did get back to us and the matter went unresolved.Our room was cleaned the remainder of our stay, so other than those mentioned problems we did enjoy the property and it's excellent location in downtown Nashville and would recommend it to anyone.
Our favorite in Nashville, loved it
I can't say enough positive about this place. The hotel was beautiful, the employees accomadating, the restaurant lovely, the entertainment Frank and Diane, jazz) was exceptional. The price reasonable and the location perfect. The room was spotless, the view was outstanding and the fresh flowers throughout the hotel was uplifting. We loved it.
Really nice hotel!
My husband and I were really impressed with this hotel. The room was spotless and beautifully decorated. The hotel is within walking distance of almost everything.
First Class Hotel!!
Excellent downtown 1st class hotel!! Beautiful lobby area. Rooms are beautifully furnished and spotlessly clean. Room service menu is a bit limited but the service is very fast and pleasent! All the modern amentites one would need and expect a big city hotel. Close to all major attractions. A definite winner!!

An all-new novel in the groundbreaking video game series Diablo—"the Harry Potter of computer games" (The New York Times).
For more than ten years, Diablo has been one of PC gaming's iconic and blockbuster franchises, with millions of players experiencing to this day all the adventure and terror in the world of Sanctuary. Now, to tie-in with the long-awaited release of Blizzard Entertainment's all-new game, Diablo III, the original novel Deckard Cain will bridge the untold story of one of Diablo's most popular characters.
Now a much older man, Deckard Cain is on a mission to find the remnants of a rumored Horadric cell, and must call upon all of his knowledge and wit to teach and inspire those around him even as they face danger and death at every turn. Can he lead the return of a ragtag group of Horadrim and their ideals to Sanctuary...or will they die out with Cain himself?

"Very enjoyable experience"
The performance of the narrator, along with the music, is really immersing. The story is full of dark mystery, danger and gore, as is characteristic to the Diablo universe.
I've been a Diablo fan for many years now, and I recommend this book to anyone who is interested in the lore of the series. However, you can still find the book enjoyable even if you never played Diablo.
"Music is jarring"
Music breaks the story more often than not, its too loud and masks the dialog
"Doesn't require any gaming knowledge!"
I was hesitant to get this book. While I enjoy sci-fi I am not a gamer in any reality! And being the "III" I was worried about any previous stories that would interfere with the telling of this one. Well happy days! It was a very well crafted world building, well-fleshed characters, and no gaming refs that I could tell, I found a very enjoyable read!
Was all the time I spent rooting for the hero!
No particular scene, it just all flowed well from one scene to the next.
Not necessarily in one sitting, but I definately did not listen to other books until I finshed this one.
"For Diablo 3 fans!"
You will like this book if you've played Diablo 2 or 3. The book focuses on Leah and Deckard Cain's first adventure. The narrator does a masterful job at bringing the medieval world to life. The story is easy to understand but complex enough to hold your attention.
If you've never played Diablo before you'll still enjoy the book too! The introduction of the characters and their interactions with one another, paint a vivid picture of how the trust and pain of the two protagonists develop into a familial relationship.
This book is excessively violent and while that doesn't put me off, I felt it lacked an element of depth that experienced fantasy veterans crave.
I will listen to NO boring book. Old Fav's,Card, King , Hobb. New Fav's, Hill, Scalzi, Sawyer, Interested in Lansdale, Crouch, Konrath
First let me say I have never played this game. It seems to be a better story if you have, or I sure hope so. I also only listened for two hours, which is all it took for me to know this was a waste of my time. This book just tries to hard. It is way over written. Example: BREATH LIKE A THOUSAND CORPSES. Be honest if you are told some one has the breath of a rotting corpse, does multiplying it by 1,000 make you cringe anymore? It seems also that demons are similar to Bond Bad Guys, as they like to talk more about what they are going to do to you then actually do it. Everything is also Black. The Black Tower, the Black King, etc...
Brick is the perfect narrator for this over the top book.
"great game, rough book..."
really had a hard time finishing this book. there was like 2 hours of the 13 hour book that I enjoyed.
"barely entertaining if you've played the game"
I would have been bored if I hadn't had the game as background before listening
"Amazing book!"
I play Diablo 3 on a regular basis and being able to learn more about the back story leading up to the current events has always intrigued me! Being able to listen to the story made it even more enjoyable! Very well done and highly recommend this to anyone who wants to know more about Diablo 3 and the events leading up to the current status of the game!!!
"Diablo III the Order Fills in the Blanks"
First off the book filled in a lot of the blanks that came up as I was playing Diablo III. How had Cain got to where he was in the game. What was the story about Leah and her secretive powers. Where there other characters in the earlier years. Who was the Dark Wanderer.
Overall the book flowed well and kept the suspense up from chapter to chapter. One thing though you have to have a basic understanding of the Diablo games to really appreciate the information being presented. As indicated I gave the book an overall 4 star rating. Well deserved.
"Loved every minute"
The story was great and I love Scott Brick's narration. If you love the Diablo world you will love this.

CSS Positioning QuestionI'm one of the many web designers who started out learning to design with tables and knew what CSS was, but never really ventured into it (well, the positioning part of it which is confusing me now).
I use Macromedia Dreamweaver 8 and have used Dreamweaver for about 4-5 years now (Not quite at a professional level since I started in junior high). I don't handcode my CSS obviously, but have used Dreamweaver's Integrated CSS panel.
Every website design I have created thus far has been positioned using tables and the only CSS I used was with text styles and color. I have positioned several elements on my current design (images) using the "left" and "top" positioning attributes. I can see how this is a cleaner way than tables, but what do you do when you want to have a background color behind text? In tables, all I would have to do was change the background color of the table cell. How would I add a background color for part of my design using CSS? As of right now I have created a 1x1 pixel image (with the color that I want) and have used CSS to change the size of the image to about the size I would want it behind my text. This just seems a little odd because I am almost positive there is a better way...(I always stay away from stretching images).
Any help or guidance would be appreciated!

it's hard to answer specifically without seeing your code, but basically
.whateverclass {

Edit: I just tried this and it seems to have only created a highlight effect which I was hoping it wouldn't do.
Edit 2: Nevermind! It only "looked" like it had the highlight effect in Dreamweaver. When I finally went to look at it in Firefox, it looked the way it should. Thanks for the help guys. If only Dreamweaver made it look like it would in a real browser...Last edited by ShiftMedia; 08-10-2006, 09:43 PM.
It's the background color for that whole class. You can assign height, width, padding, margins, etc. to a class, but more likely you would assign those to a parent div id (or table or whatever you're using for layout).
It's always helpful to see the code to give you a proper answer.
But an example of what I *think* you're after:
#textbox {
height: 300px;
width: 200px;
padding: 10px;
.gray {
background: #333;
then in the body,

yasuhara2241 added a post in a topic If Cotch is back for Seattle who gets cut, if anyone?If Cotch does come back active, I want him to take Corey Browns place. That would be what I would want. I have not seen much at all of Brown. BUT I know that the coaching staff won't do that. Now me saying that Philly is going to have an amazing game against Seattle. You're welcome everybody!
yasuhara2241 added a post in a topic MNF Game Thread: Lions (0-3) @ Seahawks (1-2)man i must say...I love Kam. Hate that he plays for the Seahawks. He is that type of player that any team would love to have.
yasuhara2241 added a post in a topic Rivera presser: Jared Allen injured, on Delaire, Shaq, bye week scheduleI was surprised to hear about the positives from Shaq. I expect ups and downs from rookies and for me it was his worst game. I saw several missed tackles and he didn't cover his gap on a few runs. I still think he did great in coverage.
Now I want to preface this all by saying I am happy with the pick and he has been great for us as a rookie. Just some constructive criticism.
yasuhara2241 added a post in a topic How many missed sacks does Kony Ealy have?I thought Ealy had one of his better games. He got some pressure and also did very well on some stops in the run game. Im hoping that Allen might be able to help him develop as well.
yasuhara2241 added a post in a topic Who is this Ryan Delaire?Very impressive. I actually sang this while reading it!
yasuhara2241 added a topic in Charlotte HornetsHornets win 1st Preseason GameGood first win for the Hornets! I loved all of our new players. We finally have depth! I was very impressed with Lin and Lamb. Batum fit in really well as well. Kemba shot terribly in the 1st half but played better in the 3rd. Sucks that MKG got injured. Seemed like a fluke play but those plays seem to happen with him. Frank K got on the court in the 4th and played pretty well. Love his outside shot. NBA is back and so are our Hornets!!

yasuhara2241 added a post in a topic KB and Kuechly and the heights of player worship in the NFL.Actually I enjoyed this post. It was well thought up and he brought up the Hornets! I agree NBA is more star power bc there are less players on the court to impact the game.
Now I believe you are wrong bc of sample size and bc our QB is our superstar and without him we wold be screwed.
yasuhara2241 added a post in a topic So IF TD is out, and Luke is out, we should still expect to win, right?We play a lot of Nickel Defense anyways, so we will see a lot of Shaq, Klein and Bene IF TD and Luke are out. But I still hold up hope that TD plays on a pitch count.
yasuhara2241 added a post in a topic MNF Game Thread: Jets (1-0) @ Colts (0-1)man these luck excuses are so annoying! Not one mention on his horrible throws, horrible decision making and not securing the ball. All I hear is blah blah blah his receivers suck and his line sucks, blah blah
yasuhara2241 added a post in a topic Comparing our Defense with the rest of the NFC through 2 gamesman I would love that to happen. I have such an irrtirrational Luck hate and would love to hear all the excuses the pundits give.
yasuhara2241 added a post in a topic Comparing our Defense with the rest of the NFC through 2 gamesgreat info in your thread. I know we haven't faced world beaters but hey Bortles just tore up the Dolphins...maybe we are just better than we think!
yasuhara2241 added a post in a topic Cam is this generations Brett FavreI guess this is the best place to pose this question. For me watching this game, we lose this game without Cam. His passes and runs were what won us the game. But...
For so many of the posts on FB and some other "fans" I talk to, they just constantly rag on him and point to his completion percentage and how many "bad throws" he had.
I felt that his struggles early in the game were due to the pressure and then the oline and Cam settled down. No matter what he does there are going to be fans that hate him.
My question is why? (Also please don't bring up race as why. These same ppl love Russell Wilson and would love him as our QB)
yasuhara2241 added a post in a topic Anyone worried about the pass rush?It's a concern but I'm not worried yet. I think that Star will help and to be honest we haven't been facing QBs that have been tearing us up so I think that has been the game plan. We haven't been blitzing much so that is a positive and why we haven't given up many big plays.
yasuhara2241 added a post in a topic Gameball, who gets it?!!I picked the oline. Even though I should of given it to Cam, I really expect him to do what he did. I didn't expect the offensive line to play like they did so they got my vote.
yasuhara2241 added a post in a topic Win over Jags Week 1: Statistics & AnalysisI posted this in another thread. I thought it kind of was related to your statistical analysis when concerning the offense.
I've disliked Shula for the longest time but I thought he called a very good game. The players just didn't take advantage of the opportunities.
1st Drive: 14 play drive 5:47 possession: From the 30 to the 4 and if not for a bs penalty it would have been a TD.
2nd Drive: 3 and out. Funchess dropped 2nd down pass and Ginn dropped a 3rd down pass that would have been a TD. Still had a chance for pts but Gano missed the long field goal.
3rd Drive: 3 and out. This was the BS spot on the QB sneak by Cam where the official started past the line and kept moving back until we didn't have the 1st down.
4th Drive: Int. 2 completed passes for 6 and 9 yards and then the horrible throw for the INT.
5th Drive: 12 play drive 5:27 possession. From 34 until TD to Cotchery. This includes a 4th down conversion
6th Drive: 7 play drive 3:45 possession. This was the one drive I didn't like the playcalling. We got a huge pass to Ginn for 37 yards and got to Jax 37 after a J Stew run. We had 2nd and 6 and called the option where Cam got -5 yards and then was sacked for -6 yards. We should have come away with points here.
7th Drive: 7 play drive Almost 4 min possession. This drive was killed with the penalty on Kalil for the illegal man down field and then the screen pass to Whittaker that had potential but I believe Norwell missed a block. We can call this a "bad series" if ya'll want to.
8th Drive: 3 and out. I don't remember much of this drive. But it was not a good one.
9th Drive: 15 play drive 8:07 possession. We were very conservative on the end of this drive, just running to keep the clock going and make it a 2 possession game. Ended in a 47 yard FG.
10th Drive: 3 runs when we were in field goal range after the TD interception.
Overall, this was a very good day in my opinion from Shula. We can nitpick a few series but we controlled the clock for 9 minutes more than JAX. We had a 47% 3rd down efficiency which wasn't bad. We had nice distribution from the run to pass.
I think we need to make sure that we don't criticize just to criticize. This was a good game for Shula.

Last weekend Rue Morgue Magazine had their first annual Festival of Fear convention in Toronto, Canada and from what I hear it was a total success! Reports came in that the fest was jam-packed every single day- I guess when you run a quality mag, everyone expects a quality con. Inside you'll find a report sent in by Johnny Boy…
Amidst the singing fans, the roaring crowds, and the more-than-noticeable Cosplay addicts, was me; standing in the hour long line up to join the ranks in another, separate, and far longer queue to enter what is known as the best convention in the great white north. To many peoples enjoyment though, this years convention was also host to the first ever Festival of fear hosted by the famous Rue Morgue Magazine.
For those of you who don't often visit Con's in your town it is something to see. Hundreds upon thousands of fans dressed up in their favorite garb, and the multitudes of exhibitors hawking their wares, and all the while stars of a plethora of television shows and films sign merchandise (Some I must say charging inexplicable fees). Its quite the exciting atmosphere for anyone in the horror industry, or anyone who loves a cheap scare.
To my amazement some of the greats of the business are up here in Toronto, Tom Savini, Kane Hodder, (Pinhead), Leatherface , and to top it all off, the king of Zombies himself, Mr. George A. Romero. It was nice to see how many showed to the first festival of fear, and it just shows you how much dedication the talents have to their fans.
Well, here it goes, the three day extravaganza that is Rue Morgue's Festival of Fear.
Arriving to the lineup was somewhat disappointing, however it gave us an
opportunity to talk to some of the festivals attendees. To the surprise of
myself and my group every one of three people we spoke to was there for the
Rue Mourge section. That alone says to me how symbolic this inaugural Horror
Convention is.
Our first stop took us to the booth of the festivals host. Rue Morgue
had actually done quite an incredible job on their setup. Specials on
posters and back issues littered their tables, as well as previews for the
upcoming CineMacabre Movie nights. I spoke to the Editor (Jen) who was
raving about the upcoming movie Saw (Read review here) as well as a few
others which will be playing in the Toronto International Film Festival.
After, we strolled through the isles to the Alliance Atlantis section.
They were holding trivia sessions for passes to Resident Evil and the
upcoming thriller Cellular, as well as a signed poster from the Cast of
Shaun of the Dead. Strolling along we met a few small studios, and by small
I mean small on the mainstream platform. On the underground these guys are
big! Studios like Shock-o-Rama had an actress by the name of Misty Mundae
who stars in a large portion of their movies. Also kind enough to sign
practically anything fans brought along.
On we went to a few other indy studios based in Canada. One movie in
particular Insight of Evil, we had the chance to talk to the writer/director
who explained it to be a Stir of Echoes meets Aliens style movie. Rue Morgue
reviewed it for their current issue, pick it up on news stands today! Ok,
enough Rue Morgue advertising.
So, we spoke to Andrew Bryniarski, which was sadly disappointing,
because he was oddly less pleasant than the original Leatherface in The Texas
Chainsaw Massacre.
So, after the quick run through it was time to join the ranks downstairs
to enter the screening of a new movie by the name of Dead and Breakfast.
Personally I expected a movie that was laden with pointless effects, shaudy
acting and cheesy horror moments. However I was delighted to see that this
movie was far from bad. On the cheesy side perhaps, but had some pretty
famous but the movie was like an Homage to all of the big early B movies.
Look for a review very shortly.
That was the end of an eventful day. I had the chance to also talk to a
dressed up Jason, who sadly only replied to all of my questions about the
festival with a raising of a machete. Interestingly enough on the Friday
night the Vendor selling the weaponry was arrested and had all of the
merchandise confiscated. What a pity.

Recommendation of 8 port router or switch?
Started by DaveF, Jan 11 2013 12:50 PM

Posted January 11 2013 - 12:50 PM
I need at least five ports (plus a WAN connection to connect to the Fios router) to connect the five Ethernet ports used in my house. Are there any practical differences between gigabit switches? I'm also a perplexed by the lack of WAN port. I've got a cheap switch in the living room. It's four port, with a separate fifth wan port. But looking at newegg, the 8-port switches don't have a separate uplink port, which means they're really 7port switches...or they won't connect my system to the Internet? Are there any 8 port switches with 9th uplink input (affordable for home use)?

You can "stack" switches. I use the Netgear FS605. My living room ethernet runs in into the FS605, runs out to the TV/Directv/BD and another cable runs to the kitchen to another FS605, which runs into a ADT network hub and a DVR.

In fact, I have to, because one of those five goes to the living room, which has that small switch for TiVo, Xbox, and blu ray. I'd rather have an 8 port in the basement junction box, rather than stacking a pair of 4 ports, because I'd then need to put a power strip in as well. But if that's the only practical solution, it's a good idea.

Probably buy this one, $30 at NewEgg http://www.trendnet....od=515_TEG-S80G And replacing my 2007 Apple AEBS with a new, non-Apple wireless router. Hoping that will fix the erratic wifi performance I've had for a while. http://www.asus.com/...Routers/RTN66U/

Stupid question, especially having worked in IT for 20+ years, but what is exactly the differece between a router and a switch? I hired a lot of vendors to do the major install/wiring work and honestly don't know the difference. I figure we're all allowed one stupid question per year, so I'm using mine up fairly early.

Posted January 13 2013 - 01:26 AM
Switch can create a local network. A router does that, and also can connect that network to see the Internet. My switch will have to be connected to the Fios modem/router, so my LAN has Internet access. I hope that is both correct and clear.

Bought the TrendNet switch and inserted it into my network.
After some searching and confusion, first did a file copy to test network speed. That's easy but only gives about 50% performance at best.
A few hours more of confused googling and false starts, I found jperf.app
That shows a respectable 850 - 900 Mbps on the shortest LAN route in my house. I'll test all the house connections later.

Defense Acquisitions:
Review of Private Industry and Department of Defense Open Systems Experiences
GAO-14-617R: Published: Jun 26, 2014. Publicly Released: Jun 26, 2014.
Additional Materials:

- Accessible Text:
(202) 512-4841
Office of Public Affairs

What GAO Found
GAO identified four private sector companies across various industries whose officials discussed examples of how they use an open systems approach in product development—an approach that includes a modular design and open interfaces or connection points based on open standards—to reduce product development time and life-cycle costs, increase competition and innovation, and enable interoperability between systems from different vendors, among other things. For example, major producers in the oil and gas industry use open systems to monitor drilling activities, helping ensure that disparate systems are interoperable, and thereby helping avoid costly drilling mistakes. Iridium, a satellite voice and data services provider, attracted new customers by transitioning from its initial proprietary service offering to one that allows partner companies to access Iridium's satellite communications network using commercially available modular components with open interfaces. This has promoted innovation and new market opportunities, and enabled Iridium to significantly increase its revenue from satellite communication services. Finally, DreamHammer reduced development costs and time by leveraging available software code for its open interfaces for unmanned vehicle control systems. To achieve successes with open systems, officials GAO interviewed—regardless of the industry sector they represent—highlighted a number of common enablers and practices. These include broad industry support; coordination with independent standards organizations; a long-term commitment to develop, implement, test, and refine standards; technical expertise to identify parts of a system that should be designed with open standards and interfaces; and knowledge sharing across all segments of an enterprise to build support for open systems.
In recent years, the Department of Defense (DOD) has emphasized the benefits of using an open systems approach in weapon acquisition programs, particularly through its 2010 and 2012 Better Buying Power Initiatives. While each of the military services has policies for using open systems in weapon acquisition programs, the Navy leads the way having institutionalized such an approach on several programs from early development. Examples include three unmanned aircraft systems, the P-8 Poseidon maritime patrol aircraft, and the most recent effort to develop a replacement Presidential Helicopter. The Air Force and the Army are beginning to embrace open systems acquisitions as well, albeit in a more ad-hoc fashion, with some programs such as the Air Force's KC-46 Tanker showing promise for future life-cycle cost savings, according to program officials.
Despite the positive developments we identified in this review and our July 2013 report, DOD continues to face a number of challenges to consistently and effectively implement an open systems approach to weapon acquisition. The most difficult challenge is overcoming a general cultural preference within the services for acquiring proprietary systems that puts life-cycle decisions in the hands of the contractors that developed and produced those systems. Those contractors, therefore, benefit from maintaining the status quo for long-term weapon system sustainment. Although new open systems guidance, tools, and training are being developed, DOD is not tracking the extent to which its acquisition program offices are implementing an open systems approach or if the services have the expertise to implement such an approach.
In July 2013, GAO made four recommendations to improve DOD's implementation of an open systems approach for its weapon acquisition programs, as well as its visibility of open systems implementation and program office expertise, including (1) the Air Force and Army implement their open systems policies, (2) DOD develop metrics to track open systems implementation, (3) the services report on these metrics, and (4) the services assess and address any gaps in expertise. DOD partially concurred with these recommendations but has not taken steps to implement them. GAO continues to believe the recommendations are applicable.
Why GAO Did This Study
House Committee on Armed Services Report No. 113-102, which accompanied a House bill on the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2014, mandated GAO to provide a briefing on private industry practices for implementing an open systems approach to product development. This briefing addresses (1) industry practices and experiences for implementing an open systems approach during product development, (2) DOD initiatives and experiences for implementing an open systems approach on weapon acquisition programs, and (3) challenges DOD faces in implementing identified open systems practices on weapon system acquisition programs.
To conduct this work, GAO interviewed officials from four private companies (BP, Chevron, DreamHammer, and Iridium), standards organizations and academia, and conducted literature reviews. The companies were selected based on their recent implementation of an open systems approach on a product. GAO reviewed relevant DOD policies, guidance, and handbooks, and interviewed officials from various DOD and military service offices. GAO also discussed challenges private companies and some military programs have overcome to implement an open systems approach.

TripAdvisor Reviews Nicky's Resort Estes Park
Travel Blogs from Estes Park
There's snow business.
... all day just to see them. There is even an elk rutting festival this weekend which sounds um odd. We bypassed the crowds stopped in the park to see elk to came back to see the elk at the Y feeding off the hanging pot plants at the shop, cool.
To top off an excellent day we headed to the mysterious Stanley Hotel for dinner. Despite being the inspiration for 'The Shining' and being this grand hotel overlooking Estes Park we trusted the satnav and ended up getting there half ...
Rocky Mountain High
... with huge antlers sitting in the grass eating. There are so many unique little stores and a mountain creek (stream? river? whatever) running through the town. I love this place! I could spend a week here easily - or more. We ended up going to an Italian place since it was so late and I haven't made it to a grocery store yet, but it wasn't very good. We then came back to our cabin for the night. There is so much to do here and I hope we can fit it all in.
Four Lakes and a Brewery
... and headed back to Estes Park. The lower we got the less rainy it was until the rain stopped. We decided to go to the Estes Park Brewery which we can see from our deck. Once inside I went upstairs to get a table as it was pretty busy. Larry and Erin went to the bar to get free 3 oz. samples. Erin got Red Rum Ale, Scotch Ale, a stout and a porter. Larry got Passion Fruit Wheat, Scotch Ale, Raspberry ...
Mammoths and long drive!
We were up early and at the mammoth dig by 8 o'clock! Very good, it was. A large sinkhole which used to have warm water in it and grass growing at the edges, but really slippery with mud, so whatever fell in couldn't get out. Only about a third has been excavated so far, and some 120 mammoth skeletons have been unearthed! Good display, well documented. We then set off for Fort ...
Haunted Hotel
... got back to the hotel and began the ghost hunt but first we went out on the lawn for a search for the fabulous sunset. I am pretty sure this was what John Denver meant by "raining fire in the sky". No elk on the lawn though. Although I had to crack up at a statue of an elk they have had to cover up because like a week ago a REAL elk tried to challenge it!! It's the Elk Rut now and so lots of shows of dominance. Crazy. We came up ...

Your tax dollars at work: Planned Parenthood video promotes S & M to teens
**Written by Doug Powers
As the father of two teens and with another almost there, I'm particularly disturbed to know that our tax dollars are going towards things like this Planned Parenthood produced video that was first put out last fall (via CNS News):
Planned Parenthood of Northern New England (PPNNE)–which received more than $2.75 million in government funding in 2012 — has produced and posted online a video specifically aimed at teenagers that promotes bondage and sadomasochism (BDSM) and proposes "rules" to follow when engaging in these activities.
"People sometimes think that those who practice BDSM are emotionally scarred or were once abused—not true, it's a total myth," the host of the video, Laci Green, informs its intended audience of teens.
"BDSM relies upon and creates trust," she says.
More to that story here. What's next? Schoolhouse Rock-style sex videos targeted to kids? (if they've already done that, don't tell me)
Naturally, S & M instruction for teens falls under the umbrella of "health care":
"We are dedicated to protecting the sexual health of teens by providing accurate information, opportunities to explore and establish beliefs and attitudes, and the skills to communicate their needs," says PPNNE's "For Teens" page.
"For teens who are sexually involved, Planned Parenthood is committed to providing resources for safeguarding their emotional and physical health," it says.
How long will it be until Obamacare regs demand that health insurers cover leather hoods and ball gags? (again, if it already does, don't tell me)
Here's the only possibly redeeming quote from the video: "Partners must talk about what they would and would not like to do beforehand. Using a 'yes, no, maybe' chart can be helpful to identify where each of you stands." When I was a teen nothing would have turned me off the idea of casual sex faster than a suggestion that it was going to involve paperwork.

JCAPS UDDI - Problem Using the Web Service Management Application
May 13, 2010 10:55 AM
Hi everyone, this is my problem:
1.) I installed the JCAPS UDDI Server in a Solaris. <-- Ok
2.) In the eManager I installed the Web Services Access Manager. <-- Ok
3.) I started the UDDI server. <-- Ok
4.) I check that the process is running (in Solaris). <-- Ok
5.) I'm trying to load the Web Service Management Application Login Page, but it doesn't show the page so I can't login and in consequence I can't publish, remove, view, and search WSDLs by using the Web Service Management Application.
I appreciate some help about this.
