What You Will Learn
The data center infrastructure is critical to the evolution of IT from a cost center to a business enabler. This transition helps IT become an active participant in the business, enabling profit centers by delivering the infrastructure and applications required rapidly and efficiently. Virtualization and cloud technologies have changed the way IT managers think about the data center. Applications no longer map to a single physical server (or set of servers) and storage device. Virtualization is the first step at leveraging pools of compute and storage resources to optimize the underlying infrastructure. Cloud delivers this infrastructure and these platforms as a service. This, in turn, helps IT itself to be delivered as a service.
The transition to IT as a service (ITaaS), in which IT services internal "customers," uses the same technology and design principles that can be applied to organizations wanting to monetize their service offerings. Service providers can use the same technology to deliver cloud or hosting services. Enterprises can take excess data center capacity and sell these services in a community cloud model.
The Cisco® Unified Data Center changes the economics of the data center by unifying computing, storage, networking, virtualization, and management resources into a single, fabric-based platform designed to increase operating efficiency, simplify operations, and provide business agility. Unlike other solutions, which add layers of complexity to achieve integration, the Cisco Unified Data Center is specifically designed for virtualization and automation, and enables on-demand provisioning from shared pools of infrastructure across physical and virtual environments in a simpler and more cost-effective approach. This approach allows IT to move from being a cost center to being a provider of IT services that create competitive advantage.
Cisco Virtualized Multiservice Data Center Reference Architecture
Many IT and services departments are challenged to take advantage of the technologies enabled by virtualization and cloud computing while still maintaining existing applications. They want to use new kinds of applications such as business analytics and "big data" applications, while making sure that these applications can be accessed through any device in any place throughout the world. With a vast array of new technology choices and an installed base of infrastructure, it is important to have a place to start: a reference architecture that provides a framework for using these technologies and capabilities.
The Cisco Virtual Multiservice Data Center (VMDC) reference architecture provides a framework for building fabric-based infrastructure using the Cisco Unified Data Center platform. Cisco VMDC provides design guidelines that demonstrate how customers can integrate Cisco and partner technologies such as networking, computing, integrated computing stacks, security, load balancing, and system management into a data center architecture that supports critical IT initiatives such as consolidation and virtualization, including desktop virtualization; application migration and rollout; public, private, and hybrid cloud deployments; business continuance and disaster recovery; and the build out of new data centers.
The Cisco VMDC architecture uses the Cisco Validated Design process to test and document solutions that bring together networking, computing, and storage resources and services (Figure 1).
This architecture delivers several benefits. The IT department can deploy Cisco technology at its own pace, using best practices and recommendations for deploying the Cisco Unified Data Center platform while continuing to use existing skill sets and investments. The architecture provides the flexibility to deploy physical and virtual applications on a common platform, while being ready to accommodate emerging applications and technology trends, such as big data, massively scalable data centers, and high-performance computing (HPC). One of the biggest challenges in deploying new technology or changing the IT model is risk. The Cisco VMDC architecture mitigates risk through extensive testing and validation of reference guidelines by Cisco. This validation results in accelerated value: IT can change the economics of the data center, achieving IT simplicity, financial efficiency, and business agility through rapid deployment of validated infrastructure.
Customers can use the Cisco VMDC reference architecture in two ways:
● As infrastructure solutions that help customers optimize infrastructure and add new capabilities
● As a fully validated system testing initiative that provides a prescriptive framework with test results
The Cisco VMDC reference architecture has proven value for enterprises, service providers, and public-sector organizations that are integrating networking, computing, storage, and management building blocks into a cohesive architecture.
Infrastructure Solutions
Whether IT is in the process of consolidating and virtualizing assets, standardizing infrastructure and operations, or automating service delivery, it faces a variety of technology challenges and choices. The infrastructure solutions enabled and validated by the Cisco VMDC architecture are designed to address these challenges, compare and contrast the choices and options available, and document the reference solution (with configuration examples). Using the information provided, data center practitioners will gain confidence in deploying these solutions and making appropriate customizations.
Table 1 documents these challenges and solutions.
Table 1. Infrastructure Challenges and Solutions
Fabric resilience
Design a highly available network that delivers deterministic and rapid failover, uses all available links and switches, and provides the foundation for physical and virtual workloads.
● Deploy active-active link topologies using Cisco FabricPath, virtual PortChannel (vPC) technology, and routing protocols.
● Use top-of-rack and end-of-row switching technologies (Cisco Fabric Extender Technology [FEX Technology], Cisco Data Center Virtual Machine Fabric Extender [VM-FEX], and Cisco Nexus® Switches).
● Configure load balancing, security, and services.
Fabric convergence
Understand how and when to converge network fabrics to simplify networking infrastructure while supporting multiprotocol storage.
● Support any SAN or network-attached storage (NAS) protocol on a single fabric.
● Consider dual-fabric architectures and how to evolve to a unified fabric.
● Use Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) best practices and employ fabric and network resilience.
Network virtualization
Understand how server virtualization and cloud characteristics change the network requirements.
● Connect and manage the virtual and physical using Cisco Nexus 1000V Series Switches and Cisco Data Center VM-FEX.
● Use virtual security and management services.
Converged infrastructure
Standardize infrastructure to rapidly build and deploy applications
● Use the storage platform of choice (EMC, NetApp, HDS, etc.) in an integrated stack.
● Build and integrate FlexPod, Vblock™ Infrastructure Packages, EMC VSPEX, and HDS.
Interconnection of multiple data centers
Scale the data center to multiple sites for business continuance, elasticity of resources, data protection, and recovery.
● Maintain continuity of the Layer 2 and 3 domains between sites with location independence.
● Integrate with storage partner products for data mirroring, backup, and replication.
Secure separation
Help ensure separation of workloads and virtual machines to meet customer separation, security, compliance, and service-level requirements.
● Create virtual containers within the data center infrastructure.
● Enable levels of security and separation based on the service being delivered (internal services compared to monetized services).
Orchestration and automation
Orchestrate and automate physical and virtual resources for cloud, business, and big data applications.
● Integrate the network services manager, intelligent automation, and baseboard management controller with the physical and virtual architecture.
● Tune the orchestration or automation platform for resource automation and service catalog use.
Dynamic resource elasticity
Move resources within a private cloud environment to handle planned or unplanned spikes in capacity requirements.
● Use automation, orchestration, and Cisco UCS® Manager to rapidly allocate and reallocate computing resources.
Cloud Validation Infrastructure Lab
Many IT departments, particularly those at service providers or large enterprises, want prescriptive design and deployment information based on a reference design. To meet that requirement, Cisco has built an extensive cloud validation infrastructure consisting of several large-scale test beds that serve as the foundation for large-scale performance, availability, security, and manageability testing and validation programs. Using a robust engineering process, Cisco adds new products and features to the Cisco VMDC reference designs at regular intervals, using a streamlined testing and documentation process, helping ensure end-to-end quality based on real-world customer requirements. IT departments can use the well-documented results of these validation efforts as a reference for their own configurations or to plan, build, and deploy their data center infrastructure in conjunction with Cisco Advanced Services or other partner services engagements.
Table 2 lists the current available releases from the Cisco VMDC validated test bed.
Table 2. Cisco VMDC Validated Releases
Cisco VMDC Release
1.0 and 1.1
● Introduces foundational architecture for deploying virtualized and multitenant data centers for cloud-based services
● Supports high availability, elasticity, and resiliency of virtualized computing, networking, and storage services
● Enhances and expands Release 1.1 by adding infrastructure orchestration capability using BMC Cloud Lifecycle Management, enhanced network segmentation, and host security
● Uses integrated computing stacks (ICS) as building blocks for the pod and validates two scale points: compact pod and large pod
● Provides general-purpose architecture for a multitenant virtualized data center used for private cloud
● Includes these improvements: multicast support; simplified network design; jumbo frame support; improved convergence, performance, and scalability for private cloud; quality-of-service (QoS) best practices, and increased design flexibility with multitenant design options
● Builds on Releases 2.0 and 2.1, adding defense in-depth enhanced security, multimedia QoS support, and Layer 2 (Virtual Private LAN Service [VPLS])-based Cisco Data Center Interconnect (DCI)
● Introduces a Cisco VMDC design based on Cisco FabricPath for private cloud deployments, providing simple tenant containers suitable for enterprise deployment models, firewalls, and load-balancing services as well as high availability and security
Cisco has been a trusted advisor in helping customers rapidly and safely deploy new technologies in the network. As the data center becomes increasingly complex, the Cisco Virtualized Multiservice Data Center reference architecture can help IT departments evolve their infrastructure toward a cloud environment and take advantage of new technologies that can fundamentally shift the economics of the data center and bring innovation to the business.

Can I get college credit for going through the ARISE program?
ARISE is not an accredited school. Therefore, we cannot guarantee college/university credit for the completion of our programs. ARISE is able to issue a transcript, however, it is at the discretion of each receiving school whether or not the credits will be accepted. Currently, Andrews University is the only school that has partnered with ARISE to accept the completion of The Story program as transfer credits. You will have to contact Andrews University to find out how many credits will transfer. (back to FAQ)
How long does it take to find out if I am accepted?
Once we receive your completed online application, application fee, and three references, we will typically review your application and email you a final decision within one to two weeks. The longest wait is typically your reference forms, so be sure to ask your references to submit the online reference form as soon as possible. (back to FAQ)
How does ARISE compare to other evangelism schools?
Because we have not done comparative research on any other program, the best way to see the difference between our program and any other is to compare the information (curriculum, instructors, philosophy, format, etc.) of each school. All of our information is available on our website. One thing to note is that our goal is not to train Bible workers, pastors, or evangelists, but rather disciple individuals as followers of Christ and to strengthen their relationship with Him. Most of our students do not come with the purpose of going into full-time ministry. Though some feel called to full-time ministry after the program, most graduates go back to their school, church, community as lay members with a passion to spread the gospel. (back to FAQ)
What is the typical age of the people in the program?
We only accept students that are at least 18 years old by the time the program begins, but have no age limit. The majority of our students are typically between 18-30, but we also get some in their 40s, 50s, and 60s. (back to FAQ)
What is the size of the class?
We typically get between 30 and 40 students. (back to FAQ)
Does ARISE hire graduates or place them in ministry positions?
We do not hire graduates and cannot guarantee full or part-time ministry positions elsewhere after the completion of the program. However, if we receive calls from churches, conferences, or ministries with job opportunities, we send them recommendations of graduates that we think could be a good fit on a case-by-case basis. (back to FAQ)
What am I equipped to do after the program?
ARISE is a discipleship program that aims to teach you the loving character of God through the narrative of the Bible and give instruction on being an effective witness for Christ. Lord willing, this will result in our students going back to their work, school, and church as on-fire disciples for Jesus. Some graduates feel called by God to go into full-time ministry, and our program can help build a foundation for that. However, ARISE isn't specifically designed to train full-time ministers, but rather to equip lay people. (back to FAQ)
As an international student, does ARISE help me get a visa?
No, we are not involved in the visa process. For every international applicant that is accepted, we send an invitation letter that you can use when applying for your tourist visa. Since ARISE is not an accredited school, attendees of the The Story Program are not technically "students" and thus are not eligible to receive a student visa such as an I-20. International attendees typically apply for a visitors or tourist visa, such as a B-1 or B-2. You will need to contact your country's immigration office for details. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us. (back to FAQ)
Can I keep my current job while going through the program?
Due to the very intense schedule and the need for you to be focused throughout the program, you are not allowed to be employed or work while at ARISE. (back to FAQ)
Does ARISE have work that I can do to put towards my tuition?
ARISE does not have any work positions available before, during, or after the program for students. Furthermore, our policy states that the full tuition amount must be paid no later than 30 days from the start of the program. (back to FAQ)

Lee Elmgren passed away April 20, 2011, at Providence Brookside Manor in Hood River, Ore. He was born April 9, 1933, in Elma, Wash.
Lee graduated from Aberdeen High School and then served in the Army in the Korean War. He was called home when his father was stricken with polio in 1953 because he was needed to run the family business, Arthur Elmgren Logging Company.
He married his high school sweetheart, Joan Hite, in 1954, and they had one son, Steven. The family moved to the Heights in Hood River in 1957.
When he bought a new home on Sherman Street, it was quite a spectacle to behold, as he had to transport a 20-foot tall and 22-foot long pirate ship from the Heights to Sherman Street - but necessary, because he had made it for his son.
In the mid 1970s, Lee went to work for the Hood River County Public Works Department, where he worked until his retirement in 2000.
He was an avid duck hunter and fisherman; he even rented a duck pond in Mosier annually, so that he and his son Steve could enjoy the sport.
Lee was probably best known for his Golden Delicious Mines at the end of May Street and Frankton, where he hosted several Blossom Days and antique car show events over the years. He had a gift for storytelling and he also had a passion for collecting antiques, especially one-cylinder engines.
He had one of the only working blacksmith shops in the state, and along with that he built a general store, jail house and fire station, complete with a Model T fire truck. He was a favorite in local parades, driving his old 1933 Dodge and fire truck.
Lee is preceded in death by his wife of 49 years, Joan (Joni), and his parents, Roy and Pearl Elmgren.
He is survived by his son, Steven, and daughter-in-law, Valerie, of Hood River; and granddaughters Alison and Taylor, of Hood River, and Leslie John, of Arcadia, Calif. He is also survived by his sister and brother-in-law, Pam and Jim Woodbury, of Monrovia, Calif., nieces Julie Crist and Amy Edwards, and three grand nephews, all from the Los Angeles area.
A memorial service is being planned for this summer; details to follow at a later date.
Arrangements are under the direction of Anderson's Tribute Center (Funerals, Receptions, Cremations), 1401 Belmont Ave., Hood River, OR 97031; 541-386-1000. Please visit www.andersonstributecenter.com to leave a note of condolence for family.

The tax, which is expected to be a central plank in the federal Liberal election platform, is one way to put a price on carbon and reduce greenhouse gas emissions, but his "first choice" for Ontario is a cap-and-trade system, McGuinty said today.
"It's one of the things that (Premier) Jean Charest and I are going to continue to talk about, to see if we might build the foundation for a national cap-and-trade system," he said.
"Every province has a different economic situation and we feel that from our perspective, a cap-and-trade system is the best way to go," he said.
Brother David:
David McGuinty downplayed concerns that the carbon tax plan could drive a wedge between the Ontario and federal Liberals.
He said he had a "general discussion" with his brother about the merits of one system over another, but said the premier didn't express an opinion about carbon taxes.
"It was more of an exchange of ideas around the two possibilities, the two primary market mechanisms that can be harnessed to achieve the same end, which is a price on carbon," David McGuinty said.
In fact, a federal carbon tax could complement a provincial cap-and-trade system, he said.
"I think what the premier's said is, `Look, given the here and now of the specificity of the Ontario economy, and how we would like to go forward in pricing carbon, we would rather go with a cap-and-trade system first,"' he said.
"But I doubt very much the premier's ruling out the notion of a carbon tax shift."
In the final analysis, the federal Liberals can't afford to have McGuinty completely offside, Ontario is key if the Liberals are to win the next election. That said, if the proposal does bring in a cap and trade component, as well as a tax shift, McGuinty could fall in line, or at least offer tepid approval. Nobody expects Ontario to walk in lockstep with their federal counterparts, but it is probably better that both are hashing out the details now, prior to release.

The overwhelming success of Apple's iPhone 4S has finally hit a lull. Since its launch last October, the device has managed to hold on to the title of top selling device in the United States for 10 months before finally being dethroned by the Samsung Galaxy S III last month.
According to analyst Michael Walkley of Canaccord Genuity, monthly channel checks have confirmed that the Galaxy S III is the top selling device at T-Mobile (who doesn't carry the iPhone 4S), Sprint and Verizon. The iPhone remained the number one device at AT&T, but the S III's success at the other three largest carriers in the nation is enough to secure the number one spot.
The S III wasn't the only Android device to do well, it's worth noting that the number two top selling device at Verizon was the Droid RAZR MAXX, and every carrier that sells an HTC One series device has it in their top three.
Now that the Galaxy S III has become the top selling device in the nation, can it hold on? Apple, Motorola, HTC, LG, Nokia and even Samsung have new devices slated to hit the market before the end of the year. Still, I'd venture to guess the S III is more than capable of keeping up with whatever hits shelves by the holiday season.

Warming for Winter January 2012
Posted on January 27, 2012 0
Warming for Winter
By Shellie Enteen, BA, RA, LMT
Those who live in the Northern Hemisphere are now experiencing the cooler days and cold nights of winter. Some have already seen big snows, others light dustings. But whether or not the snows and ice have arrived where you live, airborne respiratory symptoms are sure to be making the rounds.
For those of us who have knowledge of and access to pure essential oils, there are easy ways to warm up winter and fortify the body, increasing the ability to ward off common winter woes. This is a time when we reach for some of the more stimulating essences to create air diffusions, aromatic bath salts and body oils.
Winter is a good time to choose essential oils that have the ability to detoxify our system as this helps the liver and kidneys do their jobs and relieves overload. That relieves stress on the immune system, which has to handle what our natural elimination routes can't manage along with any invading 'bugs.' A happy immune system is ready to take on encounters with a respiratory virus or other pathogen, keeping us healthy and strong throughout the season. A detoxifying blend can also help remove unwelcome after effects of overeating during the holidays. And a detoxifying bath will greatly assist in relieving symptoms of colds and flu if we have succumbed.
The classic detox combo is Juniper Berry (Juniperus communis) and Rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis). Other essences that boost cleansing affects are Carrot Seed (Daucus carota), Cypress (Cupressus sempervirens), Grapefruit (Citrus paradisi), Fennel Seed (Foeniculum vulgare), Lavender (Lavandula spica and Lavandula officinalis), Lemon (Citrus limonum)*, Sweet Orange (Citrus senensis var. dulcis), Mandarin (Citrus reticulata var. mandarin) and Tangerine (Citrus reticulata var. tangerine).
A wonderful and enjoyable detox bath might be created with the following:
- 2 cups of Epsom Salts
- 6 drops of Lavender Spike
- 6 drops of Sweet Orange
- 2 drops of Rosemary
- 2 drops of Juniper
Mix the essential oils well into the salts and let that mixture rest, covered, for 20 minutes to half an hour for good absorption of the essences. In the meantime, prepare yourself and start to run a tub that will be hot, but not uncomfortably so. For a detox bath, sweating is desirable whereas with other baths you are best staying just below the perspiration level.
Bring the mixture with you and after you are seated in the bath, swirl in the scented salts and inhale deeply to receive the aromatic airborne effects. Then soak for 10 minutes, adding more hot water if necessary. Towel dry and dress. It's best not to take a detox bath too close to bedtime as you will have effects that might disturb your sleep.
Another way we warm ourselves for winter is by choosing to diffuse the wonderful, stimulating and protective spice oils, like Ginger (Zingiber officinale), Cinnamon (Cinnamonun zeylanicum), Clove (Eugenia caryophyllata), Nutmeg (Myristica fragrans) and Cardamom (Elettaria cardamomum). Add several of these to the evergreen oils, especially Fir (Abies siberica), Juniper or Pine (Pinus sylvestris) and add a splash of citrus, such as Sweet Orange, Tangerine or Mandarin. This will create a protective, fortifying and uplifting seasonal scent to surround you at home, work, or in the car. Make an air spray by putting about 25 drops of the blend into 1 oz of distilled water in a mister bottle, or use the blend in any other type of diffuser you prefer.
A body oil or moisturizer can be created by using rich, moisturizing Sesame oil or an unscented, no wax formula body lotion. Choose one or more of the rubefacient essences that are not very irritating to the skin, such as Pine, Rosemary, or Cardamom, and add other skin supportive oils to suit your aromatic palate, like Geranium (Pelargonium graveolens), Palmarosa (Cymbopogan martinii), Vetiver (Vetiveria zizoanides), Patchouli (Pogostemom cablin) or the florals -- Rose (Rosa damascena), Neroli (Citrus aurantium var. amara) or Jasmine (Jasminum grandiflorum). Use after bathing and as a hand lotion and enjoy the warmth of extra circulation to the skin while you combat the dryness that also comes with winter.

NEW YORK (AP) Linebackers Chad Greenway of Minnesota and Brandon Spikes of New England were fined $21,000 by the NFL on Friday for unnecessary roughness in games last weekend.
Greenway struck Lions receiver Calvin Johnson in the head and neck area in last Sunday's victory over Detroit. He apologized to Johnson afterward.
``I didn't mean any intent to hurt him or anything. I was just trying to play the game,'' Greenway said. ``Once I saw he was in a vulnerable position I tried to pull off - a little late obviously. Glad he wasn't hurt and I hope he's good.''
Greenway said Johnson catches so many of passes over the middle he just assumed that one would be caught and didn't realize it was dropped until he made the hit. Greenway pulled his hands back immediately after the hit.
``I was trying to show that I didn't finish the hit. I tried to pull off,'' he said. ``Just something about being a defensive player in the NFL right now. That's what it's going to be. So you've got to expect it.''
Spikes used an illegal blindside block during an interception return, hitting Bills tight end Scott Chandler, who left the game with a head injury. No penalty was called.
Chandler has been cleared to play this Sunday at San Francisco.
Buffalo DT Kyle Williams was fined $15,750 for roughing the passer, hitting Tom Brady below the knee area. Williams intends to appeal the fine, questioning what he did wrong when attempting to make a tackle while Brady still had the ball.
Also fined Friday were Saints safety Malcolm Jenkins, Packers nose tackle B.J. Raji, Titans tackle Dave Stewart and Cardinals placekicker Jay Feely, all docked $7,875 for unnecessary roughness.
Jenkins grabbed Green Bay QB Aaron Rodgers' facemask and also poked Rodgers in the right eye. Raji struck Saints long snapper Justin Drescher with his knee. Feely struck Arizona's Jimmy Wilson late and in the back during a kickoff return.
Stewart was docked for striking an opponent in the head against Houston. Stewart was involved in three incidents, drawing personal fouls for a late takedown of defensive end J.J. Watt and for a hit on DE Tim Jamison during an interception return. Stewart also pulled the hair of linebacker Brooks Reed.

Scott Smith became the first Gaucho to qualify for Regionals, running a 5000m of 14:03.28 at the Stanford Invitational. Smith took second place in Section 2, and his performance places him at third all-time in the 5000m for UCSB.
Waleed Totari also competed at Stanford late at night on Friday, and he too reached the Gaucho all-time list. He ran 29:54.16 in the 10,000m to reach ninth-all time.
The Cal/Nevada Championships got underway this afternoon with qualifying races in the sprints, hurdles and middle distances, and finals in some field events and the long distances.
Jeff Campbell and Ryan Martin were among the athletes who qualified for tomorrow's finals, with the two of them running good times in the 800m. Campbell took third place in Section 3 at 1:53.25, with the top three runners all finishing within two-tenths of a second of each other.
Martin was also involved in a close race, edging out a win in Section 4 with a time of 1:55.49. Martin finished ahead of a runner from UC Davis by two-tenths of a second.
At the distance carnival in the evening, in which all events contested were single-heat finals, June Farley reached the Gaucho all-time list in the 10,000m by running 36:45.99. She finished in third place in the race and is now 10th on the all-time list.
Erik Aardal set a new personal best in the steeplechase by running 9:28.19, good for fourth place. Katie Voigtlander was sixth in the women's steeplechase at 10:53.50, and Ashley Beechan qualified for Conference in her first attempt at the steeple by running 11:15.48. Beechan moves into ninth-all time on the UCSB steeplechase list.
Michael Guerra had the best showing for the Gauchos out in the field, taking seventh in the javelin throw at 189-6 (55.77m). There are still eight field events remaining to be completed tomorrow.
In the sprints, Jason Newland set a new personal best in the 200m with a time of 21.79, which moves him up to sixth all-time at UCSB. For the women, Sheneice Vargas ran a seasonal best of 57.44 in the 400m, which qualifies for Conference.
The hurdlers also notched Conference-qualifying times, with Barbara Nwaba improving her 100m hurdles time to 14.78 and Drew Johnston improving his 110m high hurdles time to 15.23. Nwaba moves up to fifth on the Gaucho hurdles list, and Johnston has now qualified for Conference in both the 400m hurdles and the 110 highs.
Cal/Nevada concludes tomorrow afternoon.
In its ongoing effort to draw awareness to breast cancer and to promote its research, UCSB Athletics is sponsoring Pink Week Mar. 23-29. The softball, women's tennis, and women's water polo teams will feature promotions and other Pink Week activities at several of their games. Pink Week is part of UCSB Athletics' BE Great initiative.

Having a weight-loss coach or self-managing a diet and exercise strategy through use of DVDs and online tools can help patients slim down, researchers found.
Patients who used either strategy -- both of which were based on interventions from the Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP) -- had greater reductions in body mass index (BMI) over 15 months than patients who only had usual care (P<0.001 and P=0.02, respectively), Jun Ma, MD, PhD, of Palo Alto Medical Foundation Research Institute in California, and colleagues reported online in the Archives of Internal Medicine.
The DPP was shown to reduce the incidence of type 2 diabetes among adults at risk of developing the condition by 58% -- but studies that attempted to put the program into clinical practice haven't shown similar success.
Ma and colleagues noted that these studies largely involved a single-group design, and few took advantage of information technology to keep patients on top of their programs.
So they created two interventions based on the DPP and implemented them for overweight or obese patients at one primary care clinic in California's Silicon Valley. The patients all had either prediabetes or metabolic syndrome.
Participants were randomized to one of three groups: a coach-led group intervention, a self-directed DVD intervention, or usual care.
Both interventions had a 3-month intensive intervention phase involving 12 sessions of a DPP-based curriculum, which was delivered either face-to-face in a classroom or at home via DVD.
That was followed by a year-long maintenance phase involving remote lifestyle coaching and support via an AHA website for tracking weight and physical activity, and through secure email within an electronic health record system.
The primary outcome was change in BMI by 15 months. At baseline, the mean BMI was 32 and the mean age was about 53.
At 15 months, Ma and colleagues found significantly greater declines in BMI for both the coach-led group and the self-monitoring intervention group than for those in the usual care group (-2.2 kg/m2 and -1.6 kg/m2 versus -0.9 kg/m2; P<0.001 and P=0.02, respectively).
By that time, those who had a coach lost 6.3 kg (13.9 lbs) and those who had self-monitoring lost 4.5 kg (9.9 lbs), compared with a loss of only 2.4 kg (5.3 lbs) for those who had usual care.
More patients in both intervention groups hit the DPP target of 7% weight loss (37% with coaching and 35.9% with self-direction versus 14.4% with usual care, P=0.003 and P=0.004, respectively).
Both interventions also led to greater improvements in waist circumference and fasting plasma glucose, although only the coach-led intervention reduced diastolic blood pressure and triglyceride-to-HDL ratio, they reported.
Ma and colleagues noted that women seemed to respond more favorably to the coach-led intervention than to the self-directed program, while men seemed to respond comparably to both.
Five serious adverse events occurred, four of which were in the coaching group and which may be related to the intervention -- including three fractures and one chronic subdural hematoma requiring surgery.
And the study was limited because participants were primarily of high socioeconomic status and from a single primary care clinic in Silicon Valley, so it may not be generalizable to other populations and settings.
Nor did the trial evaluate event-based outcomes -- such as type 2 diabetes incidence -- or cost-effectiveness.
Still, Ma and colleagues concluded that such programs will be "critical to stem the tide of obesity and lessen its disease burden."
The study was supported by the National Institute on Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases, the AHA, the Palo Alto Medical Foundation Research Institute, and the National Center for Research Resources.
A co-author reported relationships with Mylan Pharmaceuticals.

Design Motif on the Rise: Hot Air Balloons
I've never flown in a hot air balloon, but I have a major soft spot for them because the Texan aeronaut Lee Scorsby is my favorite character in the His Dark Materials trilogy. When I saw Madeleine Sargent's handmade hot air balloon mobiles in last month's issue of Milk, I thought fondly of ol' Lee and his adventures in the sky.
Can I just say that though I have no intention of seeing the Golden Compass movie, the casting of Sam Elliott as Lee seems genius. Can anyone confirm? Now onto the balloons!
- This polaroid pillow by Jersey Maids would be perfect for a child to fall asleep on, dreaming of flight.
- Love this Goodbye Plate by Geek Details. It's so pretty but it makes me sad- it means that dinner's over!
- Madeleine Sargent is Made By Mosey, who I featured last year when she made this amazing quilt to benefit East Africa. She's still making incredible quilts, as well as these whimsical hot air balloons. Sold individually or in groups of three, they are charmingly constructed of vintage cotton & hessian.
- Doesn't this photo by Maybe Sparrow's Place capture the wonder of hot air balloons? Though it was taken in 2011, it seems like it could have been taken anytime. Did you know that the hot air balloon is the oldest successful human-carrying flight technology? Wikipedia says!
- If you're really crazy for them, you could have Golden Heart Illuminations make you a Custom Hot Air Balloon Luminary Sculpture. I'm skeptical of the little drawing class guys in the basket, but this could make a wonderful gift, especially for a couple that got engaged/married in a hot air balloon. People do that, right?
- I'll bid you farewell with Gold Teeth Brooklyn's hot air balloon card is totally frame-worthy, and would look so cute in a kid's room.
Have you ever flown in a hot air ballon? Would you ever? Who's your favorite character from His Dark Materials?

Daryl Evans, right, has been working with Nick Nickson on the Kings' radio broadcasts since 1999.
Friday's third installment of the 20th annual best and worst of the L.A. sports media focuses on the game analysts. We've got a feature on Kings radio man Daryl Evans — nearly 30 years after his game-winning goal capped the Miracle on Manchester, he's about to reach a milestone of 1,000 games as a broadcaster. That's a career he never really thought he'd be getting into so deep, but he's adapted and made it work.
More than just an Interesting side note: Evans and Jim Fox are two of some 20 former Kings players who moved into the broadcasting field after their NHL playing days, spanning the last two decades.
Through research by statistician Doug Mann, who works with Fox and Bob Miller on the FSW telecasts, more than a dozen of them are still in the broadcast business, believed to be the most in any sport who are alums of the same team
Evans, a right-winger drafted by the Kings in 1981 and in L.A. through 1985, has been the radio analyst since 1999. Fox, a right winger drafted 10th overall by the Kings in 1980, played all nine NHL seasons in L.A. until 1990 when he began as a Kings broadcaster on TV.

== Garry Galley: Defenseman drafted by the Kings in 1983, played in L.A. from '84-'87; works at CBC's Hockey Night in Canada and is a TV analyst for the Ottawa Senators.

== Tony Granato: Right wing for the Kings from 1989-'96; worked for Minnesota Wild TV. Sister Cammi was a Kings radio analyst in 1998-99.
== Stu Grimson: Left wing for the Kings in 2000-'01; works as a color analyst for Nashville Predators radio, worked as studio analysis on Stanley Cup playoffs for ESPN.
== Glenn Healy: Goalie drafted by the Kings in 1985 and played in L.A. until 1989; a reporter for TSN's coverage of the Toronto Maple Leafs, game analyst for CBC's Hockey Night in Canada.

Honorable mention: Barry Melrose, who coached the Kings from 1992-'95, went to ESPN as a studio analyst and has been there almost continuously since 1996.

I wonder if there is a third way... where internal refers to actual experience of x, and external refers to objective existence of x?zavk wrote:I am, however, curious about the part that says 'internally/externally'. These two terms are not further elaborated in the Satipatthana Sutta. But to sum up Ven. Analayo's arguments very briefly, he examines two ways of interpreting 'internally/externally'.
The first way of interpreting follows the Abhidhammic and commentarial literature, which interprets 'internally/externally' to encompass phenomenon arising in oneself and others. So, when one contemplates body/feelings/mind/dhammas, one contemplates them in oneself and in others. We of course cannot read the minds of others. But reading the Abhidhammic and commentarial literature, Ven. Analayo suggests that we can direct mindfulness towards the outer manifestations of others (facial expressions, posture, movements, etc) so as to practice satipatthana 'externally'.
The second way of interpretating is suggested by some contemporary teachers who interpret 'internally/externally' to refer to what is inside of the body and what is on the outside of the body--i.e. the surface of the skin. I won't reproduce Ven. Analayo's arguments in detail here. But he more or less argues that while such interpretations are not entirely unfounded and have their practical benefits, they have their limits (e.g. it becomes hard to maintain such a distinction when one begins to contemplate the dhammas).
Any thoughts?

Good game even if we lose
We wasted Jrue's best overall game of his career
Good game even if we lose
Oh well. We played a great game considering Boogies hideous start and ADs overall coldness, and it's not like Toronto is some scrub team. I'm happy to see the role players and Jrue really showing up in a good game, and I'll take 3-1 on the roadtrip
Watching Pelicans games is what Georges Bataille meant by limit experiences.
too bad, but all those minutes for the towers may have come back to bite this game. Neither guy had it, and the team still hung in.
Sure would be nice to run some sets with Boogie on the block rather than at the arc. Or would Gentry consider that "giving up"?
Oh wow we got a foul
Sent from my SM-S903VL using Tapatalk
Gotta figure out how to play defense in the next few games
Just so sick of seeing Cunningham in the game
Sent from my SM-S903VL using Tapatalk
This seals it. If Monroe gets bought out we need to buy, beg, borrow or steal a way to get him on the roster.
Back at .500, but I guess it could always be worse.
RIP FlyGirl
That one is for Boogie, and hopefully he learns from that and crushes our next five opponents
Once Rondo returns all of the turnovers will be cut in half.
10 3pt attempts from DC is just lazy
Jrue having this great game to hopefully get him on track is more important that the win. Now if we can get all big 3 cyndlinders going at the same time along with solid contributions from the other guys..

FMCA Offers New Discounts to Motorhome Travelers
July 25, 2011 by Justin Leighty - () Comments Off on FMCA Offers New Discounts to Motorhome Travelers
In its continuing search for new and improved benefits for motorhome owners, Family Motor Coach Association (FMCA) is offering several new or enhanced "connections" to discounts its members.
Campground Connection
FMCA has launched a "Campground Connection" program to help motorhoming families save money on campground stays and to provide participating campgrounds with an additional source of revenue, according to a news release.
The FMCA Campground Connection program is a system of FMCA commercial member campgrounds that have agreed to offer FMCA families a discount of at least 10% off their campground fees. These FMCA campgrounds also have joined FMCA in its member recruiting efforts and thus are authorized to sell FMCA memberships on the spot to customers who own motorhomes but do not yet belong to the association.
Participating campgrounds receive recruitment materials and signs that designate them as an FMCA Campground Connection. FMCA members can locate campgrounds via a searchable map at FMCA.com/campgrounds, which includes links to each facility's Web site and lists services and amenities, the amount of discount offered, and contact information.
Campgrounds are required to be an FMCA commercial member in order to participate in the Campground Connection program. A one-year FMCA commercial campground membership costs $57 ($40 for each subsequent year). This membership puts campgrounds in touch with FMCA's established network of nearly 100,000 motorhoming families.
In addition to the visibility provided by the online map, FMCA member campgrounds receive a free listing in the association's RV Marketplace, which is published in Family Motor Coaching magazine and is available at FMCA.com.
Commercial membership also entitles the campground to a subscription to Family Motor Coaching, including the FMCA Annual Directory/Member Benefits Guide. Other benefits include the opportunity to host rallies planned by FMCA's nearly 500 chapters; to participate in international and area rallies and other events; and to use the FMCA commercial member logo in advertising and other communications.
"We see our new Campground Connection program as benefiting FMCA members in many ways," commented Jerry Yeatts, FMCA director of member services. "Who doesn't like a discount? Plus, being able to identify FMCA campgrounds easily and quickly on FMCA.com will help our motorhoming families to confidently plan their travels. And, of course, the potential for campground owners to connect with an enthusiastic group of motorhome travelers — all for a nominal investment — makes the program appealing for them as well."
Tire Connection
At some point, all FMCA members will need to purchase new tires for their home on wheels. To help ease the financial ramifications of that purchase, FMCA has signed up for the Michelin Advantage Program.
This program allows FMCA to provide its members with the opportunity to receive a substantial discount off the retail price of Michelin tires at Michelin tire dealers. The purchase must be paid for with a VISA, MasterCard, or American Express credit card at the servicing dealership.
Michelin's corporate office will charge the credit card the discounted price. FMCA will then send the member — via e-mail — a copy of the invoice that reflects the total with the Advantage Program discount.
Instructions and FMCA's Michelin Advantage account number are available to FMCA members only (via a member sign-in) at FMCA.com/connect.
At the current time, the FMCA Michelin Advantage program is available at Michelin dealers within the United States. FMCA is hopeful that a similar program can be arranged with Michelin dealers in Canada. Meanwhile, Canadian members are welcome to visit a Michelin tire dealer in the United States to obtain the discounted pricing. To locate a Michelin dealer near you, visit http://www.michelinrvtires.com.
Tour Connection
The new FMCA Tour Connection, powered by Fantasy RV Tours, offers members the opportunity to embark on FMCA-member-only RV caravans and rallies at discounted rates, and also to receive an FMCA discount on any other Fantasy RV Tours event.
Fantasy RV Tours is planning a variety of exciting member-only tours to popular destinations. Fantasy's experts do all of the planning and handle all of the details for each outing. Tour participants simply show up, take in the sights, and enjoy the experience, all in the company of fellow RVers.
The first of these member-only tours will be a seven-day rally for motorhome owners in Washington, D.C., in April 2012 just in time to savor the cherry blossoms. In July 2012, a group of FMCA members will take in all the rip-roarin' action at the Calgary Stampede Rally in Alberta, Canada. In September 2012 members will come together for a Western National Parks 32-day caravan to enjoy the grandeur of Bryce, Zion, Monument Valley and Grand Canyon national parks, among others. And in October 2012, members will gather in Albuquerque, New Mexico, for the ever-popular International Balloon Fiesta Rally.
Fantasy RV Tours offers more than 40 different itineraries around the globe. Additional FMCA-member-only tours will be announced as time goes on.
Phone Connection
American Telecom Network (ATN) is offering cell phone service to FMCA members at special rates. These plans allow members to select the package and the phone that best suits their lifestyle. There are no roaming charges, no hidden taxes and fees, no long-term contracts, and no credit checks.
Service provides access to one of the nation's largest cellular networks. Members can take their number and service with them anywhere they travel in the United States (service is not available in Canada).
Three prepaid plans and three different phones are available. The Silver Plan costs $39.99 and offers 500 minutes, 500 text messages and 10 MB of data per month. The Gold Plan costs $49.99 and provides 1,000 minutes, 1,000 text messages and 20 MB of data per month. The Platinum Plan costs $69.99 and supplies unlimited calling and texting and 50 MB of data each month.
As noted, three different phones are available at discounted prices for FMCA members. All phones are refurbished/recycled and thus are eco-friendly.
