Western Digital launches surveillance-oriented WD Purple series of 3.5" HDDs
Subject: Storage | February 25, 2014 - 08:00 AM | Allyn Malventano
Tagged: western digital, wdc, WD, surveillance, Purple
Western Digital has several lines of hard disks to choose from. You have Greens, Blues, Blacks, enterprise RE's, and even ones named after dinosaurs. Then came a mix of RE and GP in the form of the RE4-GP. Then came the Red series, which carried some more of the enterprisey features from the RE series over into a NAS-tailored drive that sipped power like a Green. Then there was the AV-GP which took a green and tweaked the firmware to better handle multiple video streams being read to and written from the disk simultaneously.
You'd figure they had every possible angle covered, but apparently there was a hole to fill. Turns out the home / small business surveillance market is a bit of a big deal. We're talking about those security systems you see capturing 16 or even 32 video streams simultaneously. Add the fact that these larger systems tend to store their streams to a RAID as opposed to a single disk. What was needed was a drive capable of handling a greater number of simultaneous streams than an AV-GP, while also carrying over the RAID features of the Red, and doing so without driving costs into the enterprise territory of the SE/RE.
Behold the solution:
The WD Purple is an Advanced Format HDD that is optimized for recording up to 32 HD video streams simultaneously:
Writing 32 separate streams to a hard drive would usually lead to the heads thrashing about, trying to keep up with what appears to be random writes. The Purple has much smarter firmware that has been tuned for this specific purpose (seen above maintaining 50% idle time while handling 32 HD streams). While these firmware optimizations would hurt performance in normal consumer use, for heavy surveillance usage, this is likely the closest you can get to SSD performance for this application - without high cost/GB of using solid state as a solution to such a capacity hungry problem.
Speaking of cost/GB, Purple drives are quite reasonable, starting at $89 for 1TB up to $199 for the flagship 4TB capacity.

CES 2014: PEPCOM Tidbits: Western Digital and Linksys
Subject: Storage, Shows and Expos | January 8, 2014 - 01:20 AM | Allyn Malventano

Western Digital:
Last night at the PEPCOM Digital Experience, we swung by Western Digital's booth. While there are no new launches at CES, it's always nice to see the full spread all laid out on display:
4TB Green and Black, 1TB Blue, Ultra Slim drives, and of course the Black2.
The other table shifts to backup and external storage, scaling up through the My Cloud to the larger EX4.
My eye was also caught by the behemoth of a router that is the Linksys WRT1900AC!
This beast is way more than an evolution on the old WRT54G. While there are four antennas, the dual band Marvell radios are only 3x3 capable. They can, however, choose among the four antennas to achieve the best possible throughput. The '1900' rating comes from 1300Mbps (5GHz) + 600Mbps (2.4GHz). This router will be Open-WRT capable out of the box, so you can expect the folks like DD-WRT and Tomato to have usable firmware built very shortly after launch, which is expected sometime around April of this year. Let's check out the ports:
Not only is there USB3, but we also have eSATA for even faster connectivity. Throughput to connected storage should be stellar as the on-board CPU will be a 1.2 GHz dual core ARM. Radios and CPU will be cooled by a built-in fan, and Linksys also noted they will be launching an 8 port Gigabit switch in a matching (and stackable) form factor. Open source firmware buff tech note: 128MB Flash, 256MB RAM. MSRP: $299.

Introduction, Specifications and Packaging
If you're into the laptop storage upgrade scene, you hear the same sort of arguments all the time. "Do I go with a HDD for a large capacity and low cost/GB, but suffer performance"? "I want an SSD, but can't afford the capacity I need"! The ideal for this scenario is to combine both - go with a small capacity SSD for your operating system and apps, while going with a larger HDD for bulk storage at a lower cost/GB. The catch here is that most mobile platforms only come with a single 2.5" 9.5mm storage bay, and you just can't physically fit a full SSD and a full HDD into that space, can you? Well today Western Digital has answered that challenge with the Black2 Dual Drive:
Yup, we're not kidding. This is a 120GB SSD *and* a 1TB HDD in a single package. Not a hybrid. Two drives, and it's nothing short of a work of art.
Continue reading our review of the Western Digital Black2 Dual Drive!!
Introduction and Features
Today Western Digital launched an important addition to their Personal Cloud Storage NAS family - the My Cloud EX4:
The My Cloud EX4 is Western Digital's answer to the increased demand for larger personal storage devices. When folks look for places to consolidate all of their bulk files, media, system backups, etc, they tend to extend past what is possible with a single hard drive. Here is Western Digital's projection on where personal storage is headed:
Where the My Cloud was a single drive solution, the My Cloud EX4 extends that capability to span up to four 3.5" drives. When it comes to devices that span across several drives, the number 4 is a bit of a sweet spot, as it enables several RAID configurations:
Everything but online capacity expansion (where the user can swap drives one at a time to a larger capacitiy) is suppoted. While WD has stated that feature will be available in a future update, I find it a bit risky to intentionally and repeatedly fail an array by pulling drives and forcing rebuilds. It just makes more sense to back up the data and re-create a fresh array with the new larger drives installed.
Ok, so we've got the groundwork down with a 4-bay NAS device. What remains to be seen is how Western Digital has implemented the feature set. There is a lot to get through here, so let's get to it.
Western Digital announces new Sentinel DS5100 and DS6100 small business NAS devices
Subject: Storage | October 10, 2013 - 09:21 PM | Allyn Malventano
Tagged: western digital, wdc, WD
Today, Western Digital announced a couple of additions to their small business NAS solutions.
These two new devices, marked in blue on the below spec comparison chart, are an updated version of the previous Sentinel DX4000 and RX4100 models. The new units feature Xeon processors running Windows Server 2012 R2 Essentials. Unlike previous models, the new units can boot from separate 2.5" HDD's (or SSDs) running single or in a RAID-1 mirrored pair, meaning the system does not have to rely on the primary storage array for OS files. The use of the new Windows Server also enables the use of Storage Spaces in lieu of the on-board RAID solution, should the configuration require it.
These are definitely higher end NAS devices which pack a lot of processing punch. As a result, they are a far cry from an ARM powered home NAS in price as well as in performance. We're following these releases closely, and expect additional releases along these lines from Western Digital in the future. I hope to see an 8 bay (or greater) model materialize as well.

Western Digital launches My Cloud storage device
Subject: Storage | October 2, 2013 - 10:42 PM | Allyn Malventano
Tagged: western digital, wdc, WD, My Cloud, cloud storage, cloud
Imagine a device of a similar form factor to the Western Digital My Book, but instead of USB or Thunderbolt connectivity, you had a Gigabit Ethernet connection and a dual core CPU capable of handling large throughputs to your home network. Toss in some back end software and a handfull of remote access apps for various mobile devices, and you have what Western Digital calls the My Cloud:
The concept behind this is to have something similar to DropBox, with some differences. We will be diving further into the My Cloud shortly and will publish a full write-up for your viewing pleasure, but for now it seems to cover every base except for having your shared data available on mobile devices when those devices are offline (with the exception of cached copies, of course).
Full press blast afer the break:
Last July, I went on a bit of a mini-rant about how using a bunch of drives not meant to be in a RAID could potentially lead to loss of the entire array from only a few bad sectors spread across several disks. Western Digital solved this problem by their introduction of the WD Red series. That series capped out at 3TB, and users were pushing for larger storage capacities for their NAS devices. In addition to the need for larger disks came the need for *smaller* disks as well, as there are some manufacturers that wish to create NAS / HTPC type devices that house multiple 2.5" HDD's. One such device is the Drobo Mini - a 4x2.5" device which has not really had a 'proper' NAS storage element available - until now:
Today Western Digital has announced a twofold expansion to their Red Series. First is a 4TB capacity in their 3.5" series, and second is a 2.5" iteration of the Red, available in both 750GB and 1TB capacities.
As a recap of what can potentially happen if you have a large RAID with 'normal' consumer grade HDD's (and by consumer grade I mean those without any form of Time Limited Error Recovery, or TLER for short):
- Array starts off operating as normal, but drive 3 has a bad sector that cropped up a few months back. This has gone unnoticed because the bad sector was part of a rarely accessed file.
- During operation, drive 1 encounters a new bad sector.
- Since drive 1 is a consumer drive it goes into a retry loop, repeatedly attempting to read and correct the bad sector.
- The RAID controller exceeds its timeout threshold waiting on drive 1 and marks it offline.
- Array is now in degraded status with drive 1 marked as failed.
- User replaces drive 1. RAID controller initiates rebuild using parity data from the other drives.
- During rebuild, RAID controller encounters the bad sector on drive 3.
- Since drive 3 is a consumer drive it goes into a retry loop, repeatedly attempting to read and correct the bad sector.
- The RAID controller exceeds its timeout threshold waiting on drive 3 and marks it offline.
- Rebuild fails.
- Blamo, your data is now (mostly) inaccessible.
I went into much further detail on this back in the intro to the WD 3TB Red piece, but the short of it is that you absolutely should use a HDD intended for RAID when building one, and Western Digital is removing that last excuse for not doing so by introducing a flagship 4TB capacity to the Red Series.

Today Western Digital continues their push for smaller and thinner mobile hard drives by releasing a 1TB revision to their 7mm Blue series of mobile devices:
Looking at the new spec sheet, the new 1TB Blue carries increased cache (16MB) and reduced Drive Ready time (2.8 sec) as compared to their previous 9.5mm 1TB models.

Western Digital refreshes enterprise lineup, launches new Se series datacenter HDD
Subject: Storage | May 28, 2013 - 08:15 AM | Allyn Malventano
Tagged: Xe, western digital, wdc, se, RE, hdd
Today Western Digital did a slight rearranging of their enterprise product lineup:
Starting from the top down, the Xe series is essentially a SAS version of their 2.5" 10k RPM VelociRaptor form factor, available in 300GB, 600GB, and 900GB capacities. The Re series is the same 'RE' we are all familiar with, and is now available in both SAS and SATA. That bottom block, however, is something new:
The Se series is Western Digital's attempt at a lower cost Re series drive, and will be available in capacities up to 4TB.
So the Se is an Advanced Format version of the Re, designed for reduced workloads. Throughput is slightly reduced due to differences in track geometry, though WD let me know they expect final shipping Se's may be closer to the Re spec than the slide indicates. The Se carries the same RPM as well as StableTrac (where the spindle is supported at both ends), RAFF (where accelerometers compensate for chassis vibration), and TLER (where IO request timeouts are adjusted to play nicely with hardware RAID).
The key to the success of the Se will be just what sort of reduced cost Western Digital is able to price the drive at. That information, as well as a full review of an Se, will be coming later today, just as soon as our next batch of samples arrives.

WARWICK - Alteva sold one of its divisions, USA Datanet of Syracuse, to an undisclosed buyer for $600,000 effective Sept. 1, the company announced.
The cloud communications company, formerly known as Warwick Valley Telephone, bought USA Datanet for $1.25 million in a bankruptcy sale in 2009.
USA Datanet is not part of Alteva's core cloud and unified communications business, said CEO David Cuthbert in a prepared statement.
The sale of USA Datanet will help Alteva focus on its growth cloud business, Cuthbert said. The sale is expected to improve the business's overall profitability by the end of the year, he said.
Alteva's stock was trading at $7.43 midday Wednesday, up about 2 percent.

The English Concert Plays Handel's Theodora
Sunday, March 16, 2014
Last month, early-music specialist Harry Bicket came to Carnegie Hall with the English Concert for the latest installment in their Handel project—the rarely heard oratorio Theodora.
Tune in Sunday at 7 pm to hear that performance featuring an all-star lineup of soloists: soprano Dorothea Röschmann, mezzo-soprano Sarah Connolly, countertenor David Daniels, tenor Kurt Streit and bass-baritone Neal Davies.
On choral duties is the Choir of Trinity Wall Street led by Julian Wachner. (Read along with the libretto here.)
Theodora was "Handel's biggest flop and the piece he was most proud of," according to Bicket. But then one could look at other works that "perhaps didn't have such a great reception the first time around and we now appreciate as the masterpieces that they are." Bicket called it a social-political story, influenced by Thomas Paine, among other thinkers, and also an introspective work. Listen to the full interview:
Please note that, due to time constraints, two Act I arias were cut from this broadcast: "Bane of virtue, nurse of passions" (sung by Irene) and "Dread the fruits of Christian folly" (Septimius). Cuts were made in consultation with conductor Harry Bicket.
- The English Concert
Harry Bicket, Artistic Director and Conductor - Dorothea Röschmann, Soprano (Theodora)
- Sarah Connolly, Mezzo-Soprano (Irene)
- David Daniels, Countertenor (Didymus)
- Kurt Streit, Tenor (Septimius)
- Neal Davies, Bass-Baritone (Valens)
- The Choir of Trinity Wall Street
Julian Wachner, Director of Music and the Arts
Comments [8]
It is a shame that the cuts had to be made at all, but thank you for your updated post explaining that they were made in consultation with conductor Harry Bicket.
Nothing is good enough for these people. A radio station broadcasts the same composition for three hours straight, but they left out an aria; did you ever hear of such a thing?
I listened for a while and although the arias I heard, were not "show stoppers," oh, what pleasing listening.
I am honestly not that familiar with the volume of Handel's works for voices, however I am quite familiar with the massive amount of instrumental music that he composed--thanks to the ULTRA-fine recordings of these master-works that were made in completion to CD during the 80's & 90's by The English Concert—under the direction of Trevor Pinnock. In my humble opinion, this ensemble possibly captures the entire Handel catalog better than any other I have ever heard or studied. So I am not surprised to learn that their recent reading of 'Theodora' under the new(er) direction of Harry Bicket was well received.
Long live the great music of Handel...& of the English Concert!
I was present at this performance in Carnegie Hall last month. It was wonderful and COMPLETE,and I was very much looking forward to hearing it again, so I was particularly disappointed that the WXQR broadcast instituted some unannounced cuts (Sarah Connolly singing Irene's Act I aria "Bane of Virtue" for instance - which incidentally she sang superbly). If the actual performance had to be cut to fit in the three-hour broadcast slot, why leave in some of the unnecessary chat by the commentators instead?? This was a very poor decision.
Like Lgrif above, I can't find the libretto for Theodora on the WQXR website, which was announced on the air. Perhaps it is clearly marked and we are just missing it???? However I see that it is on the web elsewhere, at http://opera.stanford.edu/iu/libretti/theodora.htm .
Jeff Spurgeon announced that the libretto is on the WQXR website but I have looked everywhere and cannot find the link--even used the search feature. Why are links like this always, always so difficult to find? Help! Thanks.
I am so very much looking forward to this. I hope it will be available, as a stream, after the broadcast, which I can't always get, here in the mountains of southern Utah.
we saw theodora in chapel hill last month-- right up there with the met parsifal last year-- simple astonishing- highly recommended....are bicket and co returning next year for alcina??

Chat Transcript: Best Undergraduate Business Schools 2013
Editor's Note: Profiles of many of the schools mentioned in this transcript can be found on our Rankings & Profiles page.
Notre Dame's Mendoza College of Business took the top spot among Bloomberg Businessweek's ranking of Best Undergraduate Business Schools for the fourth consecutive year in 2013. Bloomberg Businessweek editors Louis Lavelle and Geoff Gloeckler revealed the top 50 programs and answered questions from the public about Mendoza's strength, ranking methodology, and the surprises on the list at a recent live chat event. Here are excerpts of their discussion:
Subimal: What is the public/private makeup in the top 50? Are the public universities making inroads?
LouisBW: We have 22 publics in the top 50 this year, a pretty good showing.
topten2: How many schools are included in this year's rankings?
GeoffBW: 145 schools participated in the ranking, and 124 ended up ranked.
Emory_Freshman: Why did Olin rise?
GeoffBW: Wash U jumped four spots to fourth overall, thanks to a strong showing in student satisfaction (6th overall). Olin boasts the highest average SAT scores of any school in the ranking (1492), and it received top marks for both teaching and academic services.
Sully: Is a three-year moving average still being used for employer responses?
LouisBW: Yes, for both employer and student responses: 50 percent for the most recent survey, 25 percent for each of the two earlier surveys.
YO: What school jumped the most? Why?
GeoffBW: Ohio State jumped 34 spots to 34th overall. This was due mostly to a strong showing in the employer ranking (and the fact that a low score from 2010 was no longer part of the calculation).
Career_Center: What was the response rate from the recruiters this year?
GeoffBW: The employer response rate was 42 percent. I think that's about the best we've ever had.
PRfrog: Where is the methodology?
LouisBW: You can find it here.
JLWeaver: Why are some schools ranked and others not ranked?
GeoffBW: To be ranked, schools must meet response rate minimums in both the student and employer surveys. Of the 145 programs eligible for ranking, a total of 21 were eliminated. Twelve were eliminated due to low response rates on the student survey: Auburn, Ball State, Creighton, Florida State, Georgia State, Oklahoma State, Rensselaer Polytechnic, SUNY-Geneseo, Texas Tech, Illinois-Chicago, Louisville, and Maryland. Two schools were cut for low response rates on the employer survey: Chapman and Evansville. An additional seven schools were eliminated because of low response rates on both surveys: Clarkson, East Tennessee, Iona, Rollins, Salisbury, Massachusetts-Boston, and University of the Pacific.
Roger: Has the methodology changed from last year or remained the same?
LouisBW: The methodology is the same as last year. There have been very few changes since the ranking was launched in 2006.
Duck1: How do we get the rankings for the rest?
LouisBW: The complete ranking is found here.
Emory_Freshman: Which element caused Emory to drop in the ranking?
GeoffBW: It was mostly a case of Wash U having a very strong year, passing four schools and moving up to No. 4. Emory is ranked 8th in student satisfaction and 16th in employer satisfaction, strong in both.
JM: What is the weighting for prior years? How does that factor into the ranking?
LouisBW: The student survey score counts for 30 percent of the final ranking, with the recruiter survey score contributing 20 percent. Starting salaries and the MBA feeder school measure contribute 10 percent each. The academic quality measure supplies the remaining 30 percent.
rico: What were the top five schools in the student ratings?
GeoffBW: Top five in the student rank, based on three years: 1. Notre Dame (Mendoza); 2. Cornell (Dyson); 3. Virginia (McIntire); 4. Richmond (Robins); and 5. Texas Christian (Neeley).
SP: Who was ranked first in academics this year?
GeoffBW: Wake Forest
JDE: Do you have a date for the release of specialties?
LouisBW: Not a date, but you can expect to see them within the next month.
Pat: What happened to MIT?
GeoffBW: The reason for the drop is mostly due to the employer survey, where Sloan ranks No. 80 overall. It's a very small school, and it gets hurt on the recruiter end because of that. The ranking story will address it in more detail.
Career_Center: What were top five for recruiter rankings?
GeoffBW: The top five schools for the employer rank, based on three years of data, are: 1. Indiana (Kelley); 2. Penn State – University Park (Smeal); 3. Brigham Young (Marriott); 4. Texas – Austin (McCombs); and 5. Notre Dame (Mendoza).
rico: What are the top five for academic quality?
LouisBW: Geoff already mention No. 1, Wake Forest. The next four are all tied for second place: Wharton, UC-Berkeley (Haas), Villanova, and Richmond (Robins).
topten2: What was the required response rate from students to be included in the survey?
GeoffBW: The overall student response rate was 32 percent.
tuesday: Does BW plan on making ranking criteria any more transparent to universities?
LouisBW: Our methodology is published on the website, and we have an FAQ as well. If there's a specific aspect of the methodology that's unclear, please let us know. We'd be happy to explain.
abc123_2: Seems like many schools dropped. What is the main reason for the drop of a few spots?
GeoffBW: A little movement can be expected, based on the number of schools in the ranking and the fact that new programs enter every year. In terms of big jumps, though, the employer survey provides the most fluctuation.
LVG: How many schools are new to the list?
LouisBW: We had seven new schools participate this year, but not all of them got ranked.
JJH: It seems like recruiter survey results were wacky this year, with MIT falling, Ohio State leaping to No. 34, and Case Western falling from the top 50.
GeoffBW: Not sure if the results were "wacky." I might argue that they are more reliable this year, simply because the response rate was higher. Also, many schools were hurt because the 2010 score is no longer used in the calculation. This is the case for both Weatherhead and Sloan.
katiedown: Was Harvard ranked last year?
GeoffBW: Harvard does not offer undergraduate business.
rico: If Richmond is top five in those two categories, what caused the drop to No. 17?
LouisBW: Richmond was No. 4 in the student survey and No. 2 in academic quality, but No. 106 in the employer survey.
dmalee: For Fordham University, was the jump related to the new business school facility that opened this year?
GeoffBW: Indirectly, perhaps. Students are probably happier with a new, state-of-the-art facility.
LJS: How are paid vs. unpaid internships treated in the ranking measurement?
GeoffBW: We don't treat them any differently.
AMGf1: What were the top 10 schools from which investment banks recruited?
LouisBW: That's a great question, but it's going to require a little research to figure it out.
Osman: Any Canadian schools make the cut?
GeoffBW: The ranking is currently open only to U.S. schools.
Career_Center: Why do you think some employers choose not to fill out the survey (such as the Big 4 accounting firms)? What impact do you think this has on schools where they recruit heavily?
GeoffBW: I think they are concerned that their recruiting habits might somehow become public. I'm not sure what the impact would be. I would be interested to know.
twalor: Where did MIT rank on the student survey?
GeoffBW: No. 21.
Hm: What are the top five for placement?
LouisBW: I don't have the top five, but Penn State and Ohio State both reported 100 percent placement by three months after graduation. Many of the top 50 reported placement of 90 percent or more.
La_Trice_Small: Your latest MBA ranking employed a new methodology regarding the number of times a school was mentioned. I do not recall specifics, but did you adopt the change for this undergraduate ranking?
GeoffBW: That change actually came from the undergraduate methodology. It was implemented last year.
AMGf1: In the previous years, some schools did not have any comments in their graduate comment section. Why?
GeoffBW: Most likely because they did not participate in the ranking. You will notice that the profiles are new this year. All ranked schools will eventually have student comments. At the moment, only the top 50 schools do.
PeterS: Did Loyola Marymount University make it into the rankings this year?
LouisBW: Yes. The school ranked No. 65, up from No. 93 last year. It did very well on academic quality, with a No. 35 ranking in that metric.
Teresa: Which are the top five schools for starting salary?
LouisBW: Wharton, MIT, and Carnegie Mellon all reported median starting salaries of $70,000. Michigan (Ross) came in at $65,000, and NYU (Stern) at $63,250.
JM: Any comments on Fordham?
GeoffBW: Strong in academic quality, middle of the pack in student satisfaction and the employer rank.
K8: Where are the letter grades?
GeoffBW: The letter grades are in the main ranking table. Click on the "stats" tab to see the letter grades.
John: Where was Syracuse University ranked?
LouisBW: No. 72, down from No. 61 last year.
JLWeaver: Where is the recruiter rank listed on the complete listing?
GeoffBW: The "Employer Survey Rank" column.
Crash: What is meant by: "A new methodology regarding the number of times a school was mentioned"?
GeoffBW: It was not new this year. It was new last year. It is explained in the rankings FAQ, but basically, it penalizes schools that have a below-average number of employer responses.
DeanJR: What contributed to BYU's rise in the rankings?
GeoffBW: BYU is one of the few schools that does very well in both the "main" rankings measures: the student and employer surveys. Marriott ranks 12th in student satisfaction and 3rd in employer satisfaction.
working: What kept the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign out of the top 20?
GeoffBW: The challenge for Illinois is the student survey (59th overall).
Duck1: What happened to the University of Maryland?
GeoffBW: I'm glad you asked. Two schools, Maryland and RPI, were eliminated due to low student response rates.
Career_Center: How many of the top 20 have full-time, ranked MBA programs?
GeoffBW: Thirteen, I believe (not including Cornell and Virginia, where the UG business program is located in a separate school).
pjn: Where was Bryant ranked?
LouisBW: No. 63, up from No. 70 last year.
Subimal: How did Binghamton rank?
LouisBW: No. 57, up from No. 59 last year.
kmk: Any comments on Villanova?
GeoffBW: Villanova is strong in academic quality and student satisfaction. Not as strong in employer ranking (31 overall).
GTundergrad: What caused Georgia Tech to fall?
GeoffBW: A combination of academic quality, starting salaries, and employer rank.
Teresa: Is space outside the B-school building considered in the facilities grade?
GeoffBW: No. We ask about those kinds of things (food, parking, dorms, etc.), but those questions are not included in the ranking calculation.
Supermom1: Where are the graduate comments that AMGf1 mentioned?
GeoffBW: /strong> They are in each school's profile (at least for the top 50, at the moment), which can be found here. Others will be live in a week or so.
Duck1: Who were the bottom five on recruiter and student satisfaction?
LouisBW: On the student survey, it was Vermont, UC Riverside, Kentucky, Bradley, and Louisiana State. On the recruiter survey it was South Florida, Toledo, St. Thomas, Utah, and Bradley.

(Updated, Oct. 1, 11:51 a.m.)
September typically begins a strong fall tourism season, from Newport to Providence and the Blackstone Valley, say local tourism leaders. But even though the Ocean State also has plenty of woodlands, hills and scenic routes, fall-foliage tours are not part of the draw here the way they are in other New England states.
A 2010 list that continues to draw online attention of the top 25 foliage towns in New England published on yankeefoliage.com, Yankee magazine's spinoff website, doesn't include any Rhode Island stops.
Rhode Island is promoted in fall-foliage marketing through the six-state partnership Discover New England, which has representatives in the United Kingdom, Germany and Japan, says state Tourism Director Mark Brodeur.
But rather than focusing specifically on the changing leaves as a marketing draw, Rhode Island tourism leaders try to make the most of what the state has to offer through marketing of autumn events, landscapes, and wine and food specialties of the season that encourage visitors to spend their tourism dollars.
"We know New England is branded as the place for fall foliage, and fall is a popular time for international tourists to come here," Brodeur said. "The international consumer is looking for an 'authentic' experience. That's what Rhode Island offers them in the fall with the foliage, typical New England inns or bed-and-breakfasts, specialties like clam cakes and chowder, and so many great chefs offering all kinds of wonderful, local food."
The Ocean State is marketed aggressively, but not individually, through Discover New England, he said.
"Rhode Island is promoted as part of a New England trip, and we're on the itinerary," said Brodeur. "The average international tourist goes to two-and-a-half states, so it makes sense that they fly into New York or Boston."
While it would be good to have a foliage stop in Rhode Island, the trend in marketing efforts has been to diversify, rather than narrowly focus on, offerings around the state, such as the emerging wine industry, to lengthen the tourism season, said Brodeur.
Making the multistate marketing collaboration even more critical is that the smallest state has a small state tourism budget and staff, said Brodeur.
RI has too many small independent and insular tourist promotion agencies sprinkled around the state , none of which have the budget or the clout to do much mass marketing. The result is a fragmented effort that is neither coordinated or cohesive. Though we certainly could not compete on their scale, a look at the CT and MA television ads that flooded our airways this past Summer was humbling.

Yeah, we know you think she's hot. Apparently even Google News thinks women dressed in presumably traditional Greek dress are the best thing it can find when it thinks of Delphi. That's a lot better than the silly Wall Street Journal story to the right of the picture, given the sorry financial state of the beleaguered auto supplier. And it's a helluva lot better than what we're hearing from the Associated Press, that the auto supplier now sees a $1.3 billion pension payment in their future.

Here's a handy hint, always make sure the subject lines of your emails (and blog posts!) are useful. I do reply to all emails I receive through Wing-OPS except those that get flagged as spam, so having a useful subject line (eg RANDALL of Wing) will make it more likely I'll see you! Just "Wing" or "Wing-OPS" won't necessarily do it, the spammers know those :) Today I received three messages with the subject line "Hello" - two were spam, but one was a real message which very nearly got deleted.
On the topic of my own personal "subject lines" I did have a very productive session at the local library with the OFHS fiche the other day. As well as more of my CRUTCHes (this time under Croch/Crotch/Crouch) I found some of my IMPEYs - recorded as EMPY by that particular vicar or clerk. Unfortunately I have a feeling my newly discovered BOSDEL/BASDALE ancestor is going to prove troublesome.....

Lipstick Jungle has always been successful when examining the complicated balancing act required to be a powerful woman of a certain age who has the desire to not only be fulfilled at work but in her personal life as well. This week both Nico and Wendy face different aspects of this challenge head on, with emotionally resonant results.
When we last left Nico on Thanksgiving, she was busy taking care of Megan's cast away son Charlie and, by the end of the day, loving the task more than she thought possible. With Megan seemingly completely out of the picture this week, Nico has thrown herself (and a reluctant Kirby) headfirst into the task of being Charlie's parents, even going so far as to meet with an attorney to see what the next step would be to adopt Charlie outright. When the attorney mentions the unbelievably complicated road she is embarking upon, she seems ready to face the task at hand and almost convinced it won't be as difficult as he is making it sound considering Megan doesn't appear to want anything to do with her child. All of her focus on Charlie is starting to get in the way with her relationship with Kirby, who is lukewarm on the Charlie idea to say the least, and everything between them gets even more tense when Nico carelessly almost forces Kirby to lose a photography job (with Victory) because she needs him to take care of Charlie and it doesn't even cross her mind that he would rather get a paying gig than take care of a child he has no relation to or deep seeded feelings for. It's a tough but wonderful beat for them to play in their relationship because it's both realistic and heartbreaking when two people realize they don't want the same things in their lives.
To make Nico's journey even sadder, Megan's parents show up at her door and let Nico know that they're going to take Megan and Charlie back to Indiana with them right away. Nico acts stunned, which is sad because Kim Raver plays it so well, yet still sort of ridiculous for it to be as shocking as it seems to be, considering Nico's smarts and savvy. Despite this, it's still heartbreaking when they take Charlie away and you can read the pain on Nico's face. Great work all around by Kim Raver this week. Nico is torn up after Charlie leaves, and reveals to Wendy that she got pregnant once when married to Charles but lost the baby. She says losing Charlie was worse and finally admits the main problem with dating a younger man like Kirby, who is obviously not ready for children, while she is realizing she is (but not necessarily with him.) What happens if she waits and when he's ready she can no longer conceive? The denouement comes when they attend a "secrets" party where people anonymously write their dirty little secrets on the wall for all to see, and Nico quickly connects the heart-wrenching "I'm not happy anymore" admission to Kirby, and let's him know that she's not happy either. They agree it's not the right time for them and leave the door open for "someday." I've complained in the past that Nico and Kirby's story was getting repetitive and although I like them I'm ready for a change, with this being a good, solid, realistic issue for them to end things over. But tell me — how will they keep incorporating a shirtless Kirby into each episode? Because it is almost required at this point. I ask the important questions, I know.
After her emotional and reluctant goodbye with Joe last episode, Victory takes a backseat this week by incorporating most of her storyline into Wendy's by hiring Wendy's daughter Maddie to work in her store. Victory plays "cool aunt" to Maddie by giving her advice on how to flirt with the cute college-aged sandwich delivery boy, including too-revealing wardrobe provided by Victory herself and tips on how to act aloof to pique a young man's interest. When Wendy shows up to help Victory with an important pitch and catches Maddie and sandwich boy making out, Vic admits she encouraged Maddie to flirt. Wendy asks Victory to butt out, but Vic convinces her Maddie needs someone "hipper" than her mom to talk to about these matters. In the end she decides she doesn't need to talk to Maddie at all, which angers Wendy. Victory then reveals that Maddie has a self-esteem problem she's been helping her with, and that Wendy's all-around awesomeness is part of the reason Maddie's self-esteem is low, seeing as it's hard to have an intimidatingly beautiful and confident mother when you're in your awkward teen years. Wendy ends up talking to Maddie about everything herself, including the big stuff: sex and love and relationships. Poor Maddie is convinced she is invisible (and seems to think having sex with someone will make her not invisible, which is potentially true even though you would definitely be visible for all the wrong reasons) and Wendy assures her plenty of boys will fall in love with her someday. Maddie is totally cute, y'all. If a college boy takes notice of her so easily, surely something is wrong with the boys in her class who don't. All in all, a great episode as a mother for Wendy.
Wendy is also busy at work this week, finding out that an old producer foe Steven is interested in her script from the copy girl. He wants to pay her a ridiculous sum and give her a producer credit to take it off Wendy's hands, but Wendy is determined to make the film herself. Even though she's got the Miley Cyrus-esque Pepper Gleason attached to star, three studios have already turned her down and this producer knows all about it, purporting that he has a blind deal with a studio all ready to go and make this film with no roadblocks in the way. Wendy is skeptical because Steven screwed her over in the past and she's fearful he'll do it again, but she decides to make the movie with him on these conditions: copy girl does all the rewrites herself, she and Steven are a united producing team that make all decisions together, and that she will not regret this decision. I foresee a regret in the future, Wendy dear. They all meet with Steven's studio, where the executive immediately balks at Pepper Gleason for the lead, saying she's too squeaky clean for the gritty role. They decide to play the studio's game and take Pepper to a store to "roughen up her image" before their next meeting with the studio, and when leaving Pepper gets busted for stealing a necklace. A necklace she didn't actually steal, but that Steven set her up to get caught for stealing (by an actor, so it's not really caught so much as the appearance of being caught) so the paparazzi can take pictures of her getting busted and give her sufficient street cred to pull off the movie role. How cynical. How Hollywood. Wendy is outraged, but has no choice but to roll with the punches.
At home, Shane brings up his crazy idea from the last episode of having another baby and Wendy shoots him down, saying she'd rather make movies than babies at this point in her life. When questioned about his motivation for the sudden idea to expand their family, he admits he thinks it would be a chance to get things right this time, which seems like a terrible reason to bring a child into the world. Also: are their current kids that bad? They seem like good kids. Shane then reveals (as he's running out the door to another meeting) that he quite likes their "new arrangement" with Wendy at home and him going off to work. Wendy scoffs at this new development and later when she recaps her day to Shane and mentions Maddie's indiscretion with the delivery boy, he totally infers that Maddie did this because her mother isn't around to teach her not to kiss random boys on a whim. Oh no he didn't! Also, has he met a teenager before? Wendy is downright flummoxed by Shane's new semi-chauvinistic attitude, as am I. Or has Shane had these feelings all along and this is the catalyst that will bring them out and cause strife between him and Wendy? I'm all for strife, as long as it doesn't come in the form of an affair with his hottie manager.
What did you guys think? Were you upset over Nico and Kirby's breakup? What is Nico going to do about her realization she wants to have children sooner rather than later? And how are Wendy and Shane going to deal with the seismic shifts in their relationship?

Orbital welding machine allows both manual, automated welding
Magnatech has introduced the modular EZ orbital welding system. Model 517 is a tube welding controller that integrates the operation of a standard, commercial GTAW power source with the weld head. The operator can use an existing power source, allowing both manual and automatic welding.
The controller has an intuitive, symbol-based, touchscreen user interface. Operation involves selecting a tube size and wall thickness and pressing the start switch on the head. The operator can adjust set parameters by a percentage override to accommodate tube lot variations.
The machine operates a new line of tube welding heads with digital control of rotation speed regulation for repeatability. The heads can be operated without a water circulator with a reasonable duty cycle but come equipped for water cooling and can be connected to any standard water circulator.

Mikel and I were lucky enough to find ourselves in the VIP area of Sony's booth during E3, and it was here that we were able to get some real quality time with the English build of White Knight Chronicles for the PlayStation 3. We started off in a desert area with a party of 3 characters, one of whom was the main character who is capable of summoning the titular White Knight. We were left on our own to fight a various assortment of monsters ranging from giant golems to sand scorpions. This gave us the chance to really play around with active time battle system. On the bottom of the screen is a fully customizable action palette, where you can choose from one of several attacks, magic spells, combos, or summons depending on, of course, how you set up your palette prior to battle. Since this is an active time based battle system, you'll have to wait for a circle gauge to fill up on the screen before you can launch your next attack.
We were also able to freely switch between our 3 party members: a blond mage, a grizzled old veteran, and the young main character. In the final game, you'll have a total of 6 characters to choose from when building your party of 3. It was interesting to see how each different party member had their action palettes set up. After killing several minor creatures, we quickly maxed out our Action Chip gauge. These Action Chips build up during combat and can be spent on special skills, combos, or particularly devastating magic attacks. Because our gauge was maxed out at 16, I decided to try summoning the White Knight. The White Knight was very impressive as he towered over the other party members. We were also able to target different enemy body parts, which came in handy when we temporarily brought a giant golem down to his knees, allowing us to land some critical hits before he stood back up.
After we had our fill of combat, we tried out the impressive character creation mode. Throughout the course of the story, the main character is accompanied by a mute companion that you design from the ground up. This custom character is also your avatar in the online mode. Mikel had a blast creating an avatar that suited his very specific tastes. There must have been over 20 options for the eyes alone. I was very impressed, and it's nice to know that when you do get online with WKC, you'll have a unique avatar.
Speaking of the online mode, we found out some very interesting bits of news straight from Sony. Voice chat, a feature that's missing in the Japanese release, is definitely being looked into for the North American release. Even though it isn't fully confirmed yet, it seems likely that it will happen. On the other hand, there is one brand new feature that will be there at launch. Players will now be able to build and customize their own towns online. In the offline story mode, the main character can recruit NPCs to work and live in their online towns. These towns will serve as quest hubs when a player hosts a game, so not only will you have a unique avatar online, but you will also have your own unique hub with a layout and population of your choosing.
If anything, that's what I find most impressive about WKC. The level of flexibility, choice, and customization is something I am more akin to seeing in western RPGs. Level-5 has really gone all out to create a massive experience. I would have recommended this game for the visuals and single player mode alone, but now that you can share that experience with friends, in your own town no less, pushed this game that much more over the top. I'm happy to see the PS3 is getting a JRPG of this caliber because it certainly needs it.

The Idaho State Department of Agriculture has decided to exempt potato processors from a commercial animal feed rule after J.R. Simplot Company and others asked for the change. The Idaho Business Review reports that state officials recently announced that all waste byproducts that do not require further processing are exempt from the rule. The rule involved a registration process and a label with nutritional information for the feed, plus a $40 fee. Potato processors sell leftovers such as peels to intermediaries who then sell it as cheap feed for cattle. Lloyd Knight of the Agriculture Department said the agency would then spot-check feed in the marketplace to make sure companies "are living up to the guarantees that they make on the package."

Great price for a great product
I have been using tree tea oil as part of my dental oral hygiene routine for some time. I bought this product because it is organic and I have used Jason products in the past. The price was right and I find that it helps keep my gums healthy. I saw a Dr. Oz episode where he recommended tea tree oil or neem oil to help prevent gum disease and I have been using it ever since. I would order this product again .
The price was good and I like that it is organic and I trust the Jason name.

Unions, Groups 'All-In' Illinois Governor's Race
The candidates for Illinois governor laid out their vastly different visions Wednesday on how to revive the state's lagging economy, as national labor unions and other outside groups with much riding on the outcome began making their presence felt and promised to keep doing so through the November election.
Democratic Gov. Pat Quinn and wealthy Republican businessman Bruce Rauner won their primary races Tuesday, setting up what's expected to be one the hardest fought and most expensive races in the nation.
Quinn, who has made a political career as a populist and defender of the middle class, has increased taxes and pushed for raising the minimum wage. Rauner, who says the best way to help working people is to improve the business climate, wants to curtail government unions much like Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker did.
Republicans see President Barack Obama's home state - one of the Midwest's last Democratic strongholds - as one of their top two opportunities to pick up a governorship, largely because of Illinois' massive financial problems. On Wednesday the Republican Governors Association donated $750,000 to Rauner's campaign, money intended to show the group is "all-in" to defeat Quinn.
"We definitely see it as a winnable race, and we're going to be highly involved," said RGA communications director Jon Thompson.
The Democratic Governors Association and organized labor also say a Quinn victory will be a top priority, as unions try to avoid the kinds of blows they've felt under GOP governors in places like Wisconsin, Michigan and Indiana. Organized labor spent millions on ads during the primary that attacked Rauner, who has called Walker and former Indiana Gov. Mitch Daniels his role models.
"The last thing Illinois needs is a governor who looks out for the wealthiest among us while turning his back on the middle-class, and we plan to hold Rauner accountable every step of the way," said Michael Murray, spokesman for the union coalition.
Quinn, who is seeking a second term, began airing his first campaign ad focused on Rauner's changing stance on minimum wage during Tuesday's primary. Quinn wants to raise Illinois' $8.25 wage to at least $10. Rauner said he'd like to lower it then later said he'd raise it under the right circumstances.
On Wednesday, Quinn held a news conference at a Chicago construction site, where he thanked union members and then drew attention to Rauner's wealth. The multimillionaire spent more than $14 million on the GOP primary, including more than $6 million of his own money.
"This is a billionaire with nine homes, nine mansions, calling for a reduction in the minimum wage," Quinn said. "He has a lot of explaining to do."
Rauner accused Quinn of "class warfare" and said he isn't anti-union or out of touch.
After spending much of the primary blasting government union "bosses" and "career politicians," his message since winning the nomination has focused more on helping working families, from a factory worker who lost his job to a single mother "who's struggling and wants a real shot at the American dream and a better life for herself and her children."
"This is the future of our state on the line. We are all here because we love our state, we care deeply about our families," Rauner said following a GOP event Wednesday. "(Quinn) is trying to divide high income folks from low income folks. Division doesn't help anything."
Rauner, who told the Chicago Sun-Times he is part of "the .01 percent" in terms of wealth, doesn't apologize for his fortune, noting he earned it through hard work - not an inheritance - and that he and his wife have donated millions to causes such as education and the American Red Cross.
Republicans see Quinn as vulnerable because of the state's budget problems, a 67 percent income tax hike he pushed for and signed, and the Midwest's highest unemployment. Rauner frequently calls him "the worst governor in America."
Quinn served as lieutenant governor to Gov. Rod Blagojevich, later convicted of corruption. The Democratic incumbent points to the bleak situation he inherited when he took office five years ago - when the state was in a recession and had one governor in prison and another on his way.
He says he has gotten Illinois back on track, passing a capital construction bill he says created hundreds of thousands of jobs and approving legislation to address Illinois' worst-in-the-nation state pension shortfall. He's also expected to tout the approval of legislation to allow gay marriage.
Quinn campaign strategist Bill Hyers, who recently managed Bill de Blasio's successful bid for New York mayor, said no one should underestimate Quinn, who narrowly won first full term in 2010 over then-GOP nominee state Sen. Bill Brady.
"Everyone has counted him for dead many, many times over," said Hyers. "It never has happened."

It was certainly a better week for the guys this week over last. I'm not sure there were any real show stoppers in the bunch, but it was still a giant leap forward, and showed that a lot of the contestants actually listened to the judges and chose better songs.
Just to pad the show out to a full hour and a half, they also included long video packages before each song in which the contestants dedicated their performance to someone special to them. In other words, lots of grandmothers, parents, etc. Very schmaltzy, and used well by some contestants to gather a few extra votes from the softies in the audience.
Phil Stacey dedicated his performance to the military. He went with "I Ain't Missing You At All," which sounded strong, even if it didn't deviate much from the original. He had nice control and a good tone. And it scared me that after I wrote that down, Paula commented on his tone and Simon called him "a very good karaoke singer." The judges and I agreed on a lot last night.
Jared Cotter dedicated his song to his parents. He went with Marvin Gaye's "Let's Get It On," which I thought was very strong. He's a good looking guy, and you could really tell that he "got" the song and put the right emotion into it. Strong performance. I thought Simon was going to give Jared grief over his face-grabbing move at the end of the song, but Randy beat him to it. Paula thought he might have tried too hard with the song.
A.J. Tabaldo went with his parents, too, and sang "Feelin' Good." I'm sure lots of people were bored with it, but I really liked the soft almost a capella opening to the song. It's only when he got moving in the second half of the song that he lost his pitch once or twice. He ended on a very strong power note, but I'm not sure if it'll be enough. Honestly, most of the guys were good last night. You need to do something to stand out and inspire votes. And that's where our next performer has it in spades:
Sanjaya Malakar came out dressed up like a bad Michael Jackson impersonator, c. 1988. He went on to sing some old time song, "Stepping Out With My Baby." It was horrible. His voice was weak throughout the song. He looked like a 10 year old in a talent show. Sanjaya just doesn't know who he is yet. We don't know who he is. And that's going to kill his run in this competition eventually.
For now, he's likely safe. He was so godawful that his fans will be voting up a storm. He inspired votes in the most devious way. No, he doesn't deserve to move on, but that's IDOL for you. . .
Oh, and lest I forget: crash and burn. Thanks.
Chris Sligh dedicated his song to his wife. And it's clear that he married up. She's really cute. He sang "Trouble" and sounded strong. I was worried that the song might have been too repetitive and boring at the beginning, but the judges sure enjoyed it. His ending sounded a little like Taylor Hicks, and that only was reinforced when Ryan pointed out that Taylor did the same song last year, though slightly differently. It fits his voice, obviously.
Nick Pedro went back to his more natural sound and did "Fever." It was right in his wheelhouse and he did, indeed, make it his own. He didn't get so adventurous that he went for the high notes, but he did good.
Even more fun, though, was his dedication. It was to his girlfriend. Never once did he use the word "love." He circled all around it, talking about how special she was or how much she meant to him. He never said he loved her. He blew his dedication on a girlfriend that he's not so sure he's serious about. He's toast with the voters.
Blake Lewis broke out the beat box, as I said last week that he would. He picked a good Jamiroquai song, "Virtual Insanity," and did well with it. I thought it was a bit karaoke in one or two spots — as did Simon — but I think he was memorable and people will want to see him again next week. Randy then gushed over Jamiroquai, wondering if anyone in this country knows who they are. Don't worry, Randy. We do. He's the guy with the Dr. Seuss hat who liked to dance on people movers in his video, at the MTV Video Music Awards, etc.
Brandon Rogers went with "True Colors" "Time After Time" and just did not pull it off. I love the song, but they did so much more with it on ROCKSTAR: SUPERNOVA last year. This was a flat-sounding and pitchy performance that picked up in the second half only after it was too late. Even worse was his weak defense that he tried to put his heart into the song instead of trying to oversing it. That set Simon off. And when Brandon wished his father a happy birthday, Simon wished his mother a happy birthday in November. "And I love puppies," he added. Simon was having none of Brandon last night. Very entertaining.
The judges were very chatty last night. I guess when you get to run off at the mouth without worrying about running overtime, you wind up with some very fun moments. That'll change as we get to the live shows and the judges get cut off more often.
Chris Richardson still thinks he's Justin Timberlake, but sang Jason Mraz's "Geek In The Pink." I don't get the song at all. I couldn't understand any of it. I didn't recognize it. But the judges loved it.
Sundance Head wrapped things up on a strong note, dedicating "Mustang Sally" to his newborn sun, which is sure to pick him up a few extra votes. This is another excellent case of a contestant picking the right song. It's in his range. It's in the style the judges want to hear him sing. And he knocked it out of the park. Granted, he's only one cheeseburger away from not finishing the song due to heart attack, but it was definitely his best performance last night. Timing is everything. He's safe tonight.
Brandon and Sanjaya are the two who deserve to go, but I think Sanjaya will get the votes he needs. I'm left to pick Brandon and A.J. as the two unfortunate souls who won't see any TV time next week. (Nick is my backup candidate. And Phil might succumb to the curse of going first, but I think the military vote will save him, and deservedly so.)

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 22 (UPI) -- Porn producers in Los Angeles say they have halted production after an actress apparently tested positive this week for HIV, the virus that causes AIDS.
The actress' talent agency identified her Thursday as a 28-year-old who acts under the name Cameron Bay, the Los Angeles Times reported.
Citing a report in the porn industry trade publication AVN Media Network, the Times said Bay has confirmed a preliminary test result indicated she may be infected. Mark Schechter, who owns the management agency Adult Talent Managers LA, told the Times results from Bay's regularly scheduled sexually transmitted disease screening Monday were inconclusive but preliminary results from a second test Tuesday indicated she may be HIV-positive.
More tests will be performed, and results are expected by early next week, he said.
"Any time any performer tests [positive] to any STD," he said, "there are always additional tests to rule out any false positives or contamination."
The porn industry trade group Free Speech Coalition called for the moratorium Wednesday.
Bay's most recent test prior to this week was July 27, when she tested negative for STD, Schechter said.
