Did You Know?
In the Middle Ages, troubadours were the shining knights of poetry (in fact, some were ranked as high as knights in the feudal class structure). Troubadours made chivalry a high art, writing poems and singing about chivalrous love, creating the mystique of refined damsels, and glorifying the gallant knight on his charger. Troubadour was a fitting name for such creative artists; it derives from an Old Occitan word meaning "to compose." In modern contexts, troubadour still refers to the song-meisters of the Middle Ages, but it has been extended to cover contemporary poet-musicians as well.
Origin and Etymology of troubadour
French, from Old Occitan trobador, from trobar to compose, from Vulgar Latin *tropare, from Latin tropus trope
First Known Use: circa 1741

This was a big week for new Rep. Mike McMahon — the Bay Ridge congressman not only submitted his first bill, but he was voted to be the whip of the three dozen or so other freshman Democrats in the House.
So, naturally, he was on the phone with The Brooklyn Paper on Friday, the latest installment in our regular feature, "McMahon on line 1."
First on the agenda, the bill, which is officially called the "Veterans Mental Health Screening and Assessment Act," or HR 1308. Its main provision calls for all returning soldiers to participate in mandatory — and confidential — one-to-one suicide and post-traumatic stress screenings with licensed mental health professionals.
Given that the Army just reported the highest level of suicides among soldiers since records started being kept 28 years ago, it's hard to imagine that Congress needs to pass a bill to get proper post-war mental health treatment, but, apparently, it does.
"The reason for the bill is that the current screening is done when soldiers land, and in front of other soldiers," McMahon said. "It's handled really poorly because a lot of vets won't talk about their stress in public like that."
McMahon added that the current screening slightly delays a soldier's reunion with his family, so there's a disincentive to give a full story to a health worker.
"And sometimes, they're just afraid to admit it," McMahon added. "So we want them to do it more professional and more meaningfully. Caring for our veterans is a basic function of the federal government."
Speaking of basic functions of government, McMahon got a chance to experience another one when he handed in the bill itself.
Yes, even in this age of Congressmen who Twitter from the floor of the House, submitting a bill still means writing it, printing it out and dropping in the hopper.
"It is literally a hopper," he said. "You walk up and drop it in."
So you could put any bill in there — "National Brooklyn Paper Appreciation Day," "The Americans for Cheaper Concert Tickets Act," etc.
"Well, not any bill," McMahon said. "But any bill that is within the power of the Congress. No one is stopping you. You walk down and drop it in."
Second on the agenda was McMahon's ascension to his first leadership post: he's now the whip of all 35 Democratic freshman in the House.
No, that doesn't give him the power of a Steny Hoyer, but it does mean he's well liked, which is almost as important. McMahon said the job is about "keeping the information flowing between the House leadership and the freshman class, so each side knows what the other is thinking."
Why, we asked McMahon, did his fellow lawmakers think he'd be good at that, given that he, too, is a freshman?
"In our meetings as a group, I think they saw that I have a fundamental knowledge of the legislative process," said the former City Councilman.
In other words, the rest of the freshman class is a bunch of hillbillies and farmers, right?
"No," McMahon said. "This is the brightest and most dynamic freshman class ever!"
Spoken like a freshman whip.

Nature's bounty continues to provide Jaquet Droz with inspiration as the manufacture's new Grande Seconde Sunstone emanates raw beauty.
Watch companies break out all manner of métiers d'arts to usher in the Year of the Monkey
The most sublime artistic watches of 2015 are replete with motifs dear to Asia. Our friends at World of Watches curated this list of the 10 best examples.
Jaquet Droz has unveiled two limited-edition watches in collaboration with the Béjart Ballet Lausanne and watercolorist Stéphanie Barba.
Jaquet Droz has unveiled a new minute repeater, the Bird Repeater, in homage to its founder Pierre Jaquet-Droz and his love of ornithology and automata.
New for 2012 is the Jaquet Droz Eclipse Onyx. Its dial is made out of black onyx. The most interesting feature of the watch is the moon-phase complication.
The Swiss watch maker brand Jaquet Droz is celebrating the Chinese New Year with the Petite Heure Minute Dragon. Clearly intended for the Chinese market, this is a limited edition of 88 pieces featuring a painted scene of two imperial dragons fighting over a pearl. They are set against an ivory background of Grand Feu enamel. Subtle touches … Continued
The Jaquet Droz Seule Aiguille watch is one of the most distinctively elegant timepieces to debut at Basel this year.

Very well appointed little hotel in the midst of a residential neighbourhood.
We arrived late at night, but the staff had everything prepared and gave us directions on how to let ourselves in via phone when we arrived.
Thought it was a B&B style, so was surprised with the rather expensive breakfast added to our bill, but the breakfast WAS very good.
Clean room, no restaurant, not very much restaurants in direct neighbourhood
The room was very spacious for Europe. The rate also inlcuded a very good breakfast bar each morning. We will stay there again.
The hotel is comfortable and very reasonably priced. It is in the heart of downtown Lorrach and very convenient to the train station. We plan on going back to Lorrach next year and will probably stay at the Meyerhoff again.
The way Europeans fix their beds isn't the most comfortable. I would prefer a sheet set and blanket included rather than just the comforter alone.
The staff were helpful and the original building had alot of character.
Most of the rooms were not in the original building - and these rooms seemed to lack any character at all.
I enjoyed the staff and their attentiveness. They went out of their way to provide for us and make our stay comfortable and enjoyable.
Room keepers were folding my pijamas every day.
We stayed in this hotel during a stopover on the way from Italy back to the Netherlands. We got a large room with two beds, all quite simple but modern and sufficient.
The hotel is an annex to a sports centre with indoor soccer, bowling, squash et cetera.We felt the place revolved very much around these facilities, i.e. breakfast is served with a view on the bowling alley on one side and indoor soccer on the other. This did not bother us but be mindful that this hotel is 'different' in that respect.
Good welcome, cleaned room, large buffet for breakfast (for very good price)
The hotel is quite next to the main station of Lörrach, from where it takes about 10 minutes to Basel Bad station with S-Bahn. In times of fair in Basel you can get to Basel quite quick.
The whole hotel appears very cheap, the entrance between a cinema and a Subway has the charm of a redlight district. The room is very dark, small (the TV screen is the size of my notebook), and the carpeted floor seems very dirty.
3 minutes to tram station by walk, 25 minutes to center of Basel by tram
Taxi prices from airport to hotel: using taxi registered in France 50 EUR, registered in Germany 25 EUR. Other way go to city center by train and then by 6th tram till the final stop Rhiene Grenze and then walk :-)
Nice place and well located just 2 mins walk to the public transport, free internet and nice breakfast
The owner is a very nice and helpful person. The terrace is a nice feature and the facilities are adequate for a family of four.
The bathroom is too small and the shower very cramped, would be nice if there was a cleaning service.
The apartment was very spacious, location was excellent, and fantastic value for money. Also very friendly staff..
Here's why:
We're not the seller.
At KAYAK we don't set the prices, so it's not possible for us to guarantee what other companies are selling.
We compile tonnes of data for you
Our service lets you quickly and easily compare results from hundreds of travel sites at once. In this sense, KAYAK is a search engine and we can't guarantee prices we find.
Why aren't prices accurate 100% of the time?
Prices on airline seats, hotel rooms and car rentals can change frequently. Several people may also be trying to buy the same travel option simultaneously. As a result, you may find, on occasion, that certain prices are no longer available.
If you have more questions or if you have a bad price to report to us,
please send us an

Many ethnicities and religions are visible on campus
the campus has a variety of students from different background and all are excepted for who they are
There is not a lot of diversity on campus.
The only thing I've seen is one man preaching against homosexuals. However, he drew a large crowd of LGBT supporters. I joined them and it was nice to see people thinking progressively.
We have so many international students and everyone is very accepting of others here. We have a fairly liberal student body, but everybody is encouraged to share their opinions.
{{review.SectionLabel}} at {{review.EntityName}}:
Sorry, there are no reviews.
Students seem to be split on the diversity issue at OU. It's true that OU may be a lot more diverse than other campuses, especially ones in rural Ohio, but when it comes down to it, most students feel that diversity is a weak point of the University. There is a huge gap between the population of whites and minorities, which the University is hoping to improve, especially with the election of a minority president.
One good thing about the campus, when it comes to diversity, is the influx of students studying from abroad. Many students from all over the world come to OU to study, bringing their language and culture into the classrooms. It's a great experience to share a class with someone studying abroad-definitely take the opportunity to ask questions and learn about their lives as students in another country. But, international students alone cannot make up for the lack of minorities, whether religious or racial, in the student population. The campus is open to sexual and political minorities, though.

itis posted a topic in Ford Focus ClubI am being bothered by "artificial intelligence" in my ford cars - it is getting worse with every new version of the car: 1) How to explain my windscreen wipers that I do not wish their "automatic" operation roughly 4-5 seconds after I have finished with washing of the windscreen? 2) how to explain my air condition not to turn on when my ventilation numb is switched into direction of the windscreen? 3) how to explain my rear window defrosting, that there is no need to switch on when the car thinks this is necessary, but to leave the decision to me? Occasionally I find myself driving with A/C on and rear window heating on - and I did not switch on any of them and I do not need any of them. Some not very inteligent artificial inteligence does it instead of me. Thanks for help, Iztok (I tried to find a similar topic in the forum but I was not successful - so I hope I am not repeating the questions that were already asked)

Report: 3DS launch AR cards detailed
Details have emerged on five of six augmented reality cards which will reportedly ship with the 3DS at launch.
Sources told Wired about five cards to be packaged with the 3DS, which sound similar to those shown at press hands-on sessions.
One of the revealed games is a 3D sketching tool, another a strange blend of pool and mini-golf, and one allowed you to fish using the 3DS's gyroscopic controls.
A pair of similar titles permitted interaction with virtual characters, using either Miis or famed Nintendo characters.
The AR cards join a number of pre-loaded Street Pass titles, applications and games, in addition to the system's recently revealed official launch line up of sixteen titles.
Thanks, 1UP.

We got by for one night but would not stay here again except as a last resort. Very crowded with oilfield workers. Quiet but not attractive at all. Just a place to stop and sleep. We would only stay here again if there were no other choice. - nitronorton

This is an older park, but was quite well kept up. This was our port in a storm after strong winds tried to take our awning off, we stopped here for one night. There are pecan trees throughout, and it looks like there are some long term campers here, but on the whole is clean and well kept up. - Sid

We went for the full hook up sites which were on the opposite side of the park from the lake. Sites were level and were long enough for our camper and truck. The other sites were kind of close but we didn't spend much time there so it was okay.
If you want great views go for the lake side sites. They have hookups but no sewer.
Park itself was very nice and we would stay again. - John Borajkiewicz

Cedar Point, which is in Foss State Park, is a beautiful campground right on the lake. We stayed here in site #1, which had a fabulous view, electric and water at the site, a nice level cement pad, a spacious grassy area, park bench and grill. There's a dump station on the way out, which we used.
The grounds are actually quite big and there are places for group picnics, a frisbee golf course, etc. A small marina is within walking distance and in the Summer a restaurant is open (we missed getting to try it out as it was already closed for the season).
It was a peaceful location. We'll return to this spot if passing through again. - Ree Klein

We were coming in on a weekend, and the ranger suggested we go to the North part of the lake, as the Southern part campgrounds fill up faster. We found a number of available sites, with 50 amp, and even a view of the lake. There were concrete pads to park on and sites had to use the dumpstation when leaving. It was very quiet at night, despite many campers and RVs in the area. There are no nearby stores for shopping, other than a bait store or two. We enjoyed our stopover. - elduque

When going through Oklahoma on I-40 W, we have stayed at several other rv parks. This is the nicest in the Elk City area. The rate listed is for 3 adults. The help is extremely friendly and helpful. The RV park is nicely shaded and easy to navigate. Full hookups work well. Nice pool behind the office. They just built a huge dog park in the back of the RV park. Sites are very clean and level. The numerous shade trees are cut high enough so motorhomes/campers do not scrape the limbs. WiFi was excellent. They do have cable but it was fuzzy...used our satellite. We will stay here again on our next trip through. - User2396

The best KOA we visited. This was one clean campground. There were 2 areas for pets along with bags to use to clean up after your pet. The pool area was very clean. The cafe' was like being at a neighborhood pub, very friendly and relaxing. To say the entire staff was pleasant is an understatement! - NancyT
May 2016 - $41.00
The facility was clean and staff was friendly. The campground is right off the freeway and there is nothing nearby worth seeing. The grass/gravel parking areas are fairly level and the hookups are in good repair. However the cable and Wi-Fi did not work. Even though we contacted the office and they said they would reboot the modem. It still did not work. The cable did not work for us nor for our neighbors. OK for a stopover while traveling. - vtaylor

Thought we would stop by and update the 2010 review on this park. If anything it's worse than it was. The only thing new was the "Tinsey's Old Route 66 RV Park" sign. NO one on site to check-in. NO rate chart. NO registration forms/envelopes. NO effort toward overnighters. NO response on the "if no one is here call.." number. COULD NOT leave even a message. NO call back on a missed call on his phone. He offers nothing to the nostalgic Route 66 traveler. He has a nearly full house of long term residents and apparently that's enough for him. It is not even worth the effort to pull off the Interstate unless you are desperate. - CharlieB

Almost every site had a permanent trailer, guy next to us was drunk and had to move truck so we could get in. Site so narrow we couldn't set up, had to move out of site and connect with 50' extension cord. Dog waste everywhere. Absolutely no amenities at all! We didn't disconnect as were here for overnight only. Very old woman/owner has little to do with operation just takes the money. Never again here. - tomman

Very good instructions for late arrivals. Be careful of directions to them, as without escort to short term sites, turns can be confusing. Short term sites level, long and defined. We enjoyed our overnight visit. - SDCampowneroperator

Well, I'd have to say this place was terrible. It is by far the worst campground I've been to. The rest rooms if you like to call them that were absolutely filthy. It was disturbing how unclean, and vile they were. The cheap linoleum was coming off the floors. There was absolutely no toilet paper, and on arrival we were told there was no hot water. Not that you would want to take a shower there. Since the shower floors were absolutely filthy and not fit for a dog to be in. Thankfully Love's is across the street, and their bathrooms were clean. There is no cable, and wifi is non-existent. If your looking for a quick overnight, and don't need to use the bathroom or shower then this your place, if you do avoid this place at all cost! - JayC90
Apr 2013 - $25.00
Military discount applied. Park was full. 50 amp was missing one leg, mgr said "It worked last night" and didn't offer any help. CableTV did not work, again mgr offered no help. All sewer connections were missing lids. Pull-through site #49 was obviously only for pop-up tent trailers, we had to back out of the site. Park is for sale and apparently is not being maintained. Wi-Fi was intermittent. When checking in we got a receipt and verbal directions to find our site (that were wrong) and when we asked for the Wi-Fi access code the manager said "there it is on the whiteboard (barely readable), I don't know nothing about computers". Access road is directly behind the Loves Travel Park and access is single lane, I had to move for an entering school bus. We would never stay at this park again! - NorCal Dan

Today AppDynamics announced that we've secured a $50 million Series D funding led by Institutional Venture Partners (IVP). It is a milestone event for our company and I thought I'd take a moment to answer two key questions: Why another funding round, and why right now?
The first answer is that we need the money to scale to meet the demand for our product in the marketplace. The demand for our product and the growth of our company has far outpaced even our most aggressive growth projections. When I founded AppDynamics in 2008, my goal was simple: to make applications easier for ops and dev to manage by telling them relevant, actionable information about what's going on at the code level and how that ties back to the business and the end users. My approach with AppDynamics was to build a scalable and intelligent product capable of understanding complex applications and automatically instrumenting, baselining and analyzing them. The intelligence of the product has been met with tremendous success among the owners of
large, distributed applications, as our customers will attest – they've given our product a Net Promoter Score (NPS®) of 81, which is outstanding for enterprise software (the average NPS for software companies was 41 in 2012).
With our customers' support, we've been able to soar past our revenue goals for the last two years running, allowing us to double our employee count and begin to expand internationally. We are now managing 51 Billion transactions every day across our customer base, and our customers include some of the most popular (and some of the most complex) apps in the world – Netflix, Orbitz, Expedia, Tivo, Overstock.com, Fox News, Staples, Time Warner Cable, Intuit, and Priceline.com–just to name a few.
After much consideration, the executive team and I have decided to continue on this trajectory and scale to meet demand by securing a growth round of financing. We'll use this money to reinvest in engineering, scale sales and marketing, and expand our presence overseas, especially in Europe and Asia. That's the first answer to the why we got the funding: we need the money to scale to meet demand.
The second answer is that we have a long-term vision for our product and our company that this money will help us to realize. Today's world is run on software (or as Marc Andreesen put it, "software is eating the world"). Whether you're buying concert tickets, booking a flight, buying clothes or saving for retirement, almost everything you do is handled by software. That means that everything we do in our life these days is supported by millions of lines of code, not all of which is perfect. Our vision is to make this software run better by instrumenting, analyzing, and optimizing every single line of code, and giving everyone from developers to CEOs to consumers insight into the software that forms the foundation of the modern world. We are already helping many of these applications; whether you are watching movies online, or booking flights, or filing insurance claims, or filing tax returns, or buying concert tickets, our software is helping people to get the best experience. But we have many many more applications to help.
To fulfill this mission, we have an aggressive product roadmap that demands resources both from Research & Development and the business side of our company. We need to invest in order to help us realize this vision of making the software of the world run better.
For now, I would like to thank our customers for helping us achieve this milestone as a company. We're very grateful for the continued support of thousands of application support teams that have put their trust in us – some of them when we were still an unknown quantity. To them, we give our sincere thanks. For those of you who are just encountering us for the first time, welcome. We have an exciting road ahead of us, and we hope you'll join us on the journey.

Let's just nip the conflation of these terms in the bud, shall we?
"MIcro" is big these days. Both microservices and microsegmentation are having and will continue to have an impact on data center architecture, but not necessarily for the same reasons. There's a growing trend in which folks - particularly those with a network background - conflate the two and use them to mean the same thing.
They are not.
One is about the application. The other, the network. T...

Before becoming a developer, I was in the high school band. I played several brass instruments - including French horn and cornet - as well as keyboards in the jazz stage band. A musician and a nerd, what can I say? I even dabbled in writing music for the band. Okay, mostly I wrote arrangements of pop music, so the band could keep the crowd entertained during Friday night football games. What struck me then was that, to write parts for all the instruments - brass, woodwind, percussion, even k...

There's a lot of things we do to improve the performance of web and mobile applications. We use caching. We use compression. We offload security (SSL and TLS) to a proxy with greater compute capacity. We apply image optimization and minification to content. We do all that because performance is king. Failure to perform can be, for many businesses, equivalent to an outage with increased abandonment rates and angry customers taking to the Internet to express their extreme displeasure.

Right off the bat, Newman advises that we should "think of microservices as a specific approach for SOA in the same way that XP or Scrum are specific approaches for Agile Software development". These analogies are very interesting because my expectation was that microservices is a pattern. So I might infer that microservices is a set of process techniques as opposed to an architectural approach. Yet in the book, Newman clearly includes some elements of concept model and architecture as well as p...

This is a no-hype, pragmatic post about why I think you should consider architecting your next project the way SOA and/or microservices suggest. No matter if it's a greenfield approach or if you're in dire need of refactoring. Please note: considering still keeps open the option of not taking that approach. After reading this, you will have a better idea about whether building multiple small components instead of a single, large component makes sense for your project. This post assumes that you...

Sharding has become a popular means of achieving scalability in application architectures in which read/write data separation is not only possible, but desirable to achieve new heights of concurrency. The premise is that by splitting up read and write duties, it is possible to get better overall performance at the cost of a slight delay in consistency. That is, it takes a bit of time to replicate changes initiated by a "write" to the read-only master database. It's eventually consistent, and it'...

Node.js and io.js are increasingly being used to run JavaScript on the server side for many types of applications, such as websites, real-time messaging and controllers for small devices with limited resources. For DevOps it is crucial to monitor the whole application stack and Node.js is rapidly becoming an important part of the stack in many organizations. Sematext has historically had a strong support for monitoring big data applications such as Elastic (aka Elasticsearch), Cassandra, Solr, S...
