GREENACRES CITY — The City Council postponed Wednesday a decision on what could be the city`s largest shopping center, a two-part complex that is expected to have major traffic impact on the surrounding community.
Named Woodlakes Plaza, the 300,000-square-foot shopping center is slated for the northeast and northwest corners of Lake Worth Road and 57th Avenue.
The City Council voted unanimously to postpone a decision on the center`s first phase and was debating until late Wednesday about approval of the second phase.
During the past eight months, plans for the shopping center have been before the city`s Planning and Zoning Commission at least eight times, and at least 10 revised site plans have come to his office, according to Planning and Zoning Director Mark Kutney.
Paramount to many council members are the road improvements the city`s Planning and Zoning staff recommends to lessen the impact of the project.
The recommended improvements include the completion of Sherwood Forest Boulevard from Lake Worth Road to 10th Avenue North.
Sherwood Forest Boulevard is a half-completed road that borders the western edge of the shopping center near Lake Worth Road and the Pickwick Park mobile home community near 10th Avenue North.
If the road improvements requested by the city`s staff are approved, 13 families living in the area of the park adjacent to Sherwood Forest Boulevard would be forced to move. Most of the 13 mobile homes are too old to be moved, according to their residents. Those homes would have to be replaced.
Council member Bob Young said he thinks it is the responsibility of the shopping center`s developer, John Wadell, to pay for relocation of the 13 families living in the mobile homes.

Due South: Roots, Songlines, Musical Geographies
April 18-21, 2013
New Orleans, LA
The New Orleans Center for the Gulf South at Tulane University"The South" has a hold on the cultural imagination as tangled as its musical geography: it represents tradition even as its musical pasts are repurposed for tourism and new genres emerge from cross-pollinations. John Hiatt sings to an imaginary rider, "so when you're feelin' down and out / Come on, baby, drive South," as if the entire region is a balm for modernity. Where is this romanticized South? It depends on who's asking and who's driving...
Working through new beginnings.
I've never had a website that was fully my own before…I've always written things for other people's sites instead, choosing that route over what I felt was perhaps an indulgence in pretension or self-absorption. But a number of people have asked me lately about creating a blog or some other kind of central site, and since I write and travel and take pictures, it seems appropriate. And, at the end of the day, I live in New Orleans, a city that is so unapologetically unique that it is almost a crime not to document. I have pictures, I have poems, I have songs, I have reviews, I have experience. All these–scattered on bits of paper and in corners of drawers in many places–will eventually all find their way here. So.

The New Orleans Hiphop Archive, a project founded in conjunction with the Tulane Amistad Research Center by myself and a group of rappers and local historians that seeks to document, continue, and provide support for this fascinating music. By creating a digital archive of videotaped interviews, performances, and ephemera, and followed by––we hope––an actual physical museum space, we hope to play a small part in dismantling the notion that hiphop is not heritage or in need of preservation. The New Orleans (NOLA) Hiphop Archive should be accessible online late 2013/early 2014. For now, you can visit our social media sites on Twitter and Facebook.

San Luis Obispo's Mindbody Inc. has gotten a $14 million boost from Silicon Valley investor Bessemer Venture Partners.
Founded in 2001 by entrepreneur Rick Stollmeyer — who was honored last year as the Central California Small Business Person of the Year — Mindbody Inc. is an online management company for businesses offering personal services, including yoga, wellness, beauty salons, spas and fitness and healing arts practitioners.
Stollmeyer could not be reached for comment.
The new capital is to be used to expand the firm's business overseas, according to its website.
Those plans include increasing sales, marketing and support in the company's New York, United Kingdom, European and Australian offices, according to Robert Murphy, partner and chief of sales and marketing.
He said he expects that effort to help the company grow another 60 percent in the coming year.
Mindbody was named the 21st fastest-growing software company on Inc. magazine's First 5,000 list in 2009 and is ranked No. 799 by Inc. in growth overall this year, with a 378 percent three-year growth and $8.2 million in revenue.

Strategic partnerships are a dime a dozen in the data management industry. Vendors announce partnership deals so often that its a challenge to distinguish the mundane from the noteworthy. Case in point: Earlier this week, HP and Informatica entered into a partnership that is not entirely newafter all, their relationship long predates this announcementbut could be the start of a relationship of considerable strategic importance to both partners.What the two vendors announced was a multipronged joint approach to the data integration (DI) and data warehousing (DW) markets. First, they announced that HP will sell and deliver a set of data integration solutions with embedded Informatica technology, including the latters flagship data integration, data quality (DQ), and identity resolution software solutions. Also, the partners plan to develop solutions that combine Informaticas software with HP Neoview, a high-end, massively parallel data warehousing (DW) appliance. Furthermore, HP and Informatica will develop horizontal and vertical solution accelerators through industry-specific data models drawn from their respective consulting ecosystems, with principal reliance on HPs BI consulting organization, the foundation of which came from HPs 2006 acquisition of Knightsbridge Consulting. Its an important deal for Informatica, but not one that will appreciably improve its already strong positioning in the data integration and data quality markets. HP simply represents another major systems integration (SI) partnership for Informatica, which already does considerable business with such SI powerhouses as Accenture and Wipro. Informatica will leverage its expanded HP relationship to open doors into new large, global accounts. Likewise, Informatica will benefit from any future sales of HPs Neoview that incorporate pre-bundled, pre-optimized data integration software. So, clearly, theres a lot of upside, but minimal downside for Informatica.For HP, however, the deal may offer very strong upside potential, but also comes with considerable downside risk.On the positive, the deal will enable HP to position Neoviewwith integrated Informatica software and HP/Informatica-developed industry data modelsas a more complete analytic solution platform. In this way, HP will be better able to sell Neoview into an increasingly solution-oriented DW appliance market, against such rivals as the forthcoming IBM Smart Analytics Systems.These future HP-Informatica solution appliances will add more credibility for HP to address consulting engagements with deeper data integration and data quality complexity--especially in accounts that have already short-listed or procured Informatica. The future Neoview-based joint solutions will also provide a credible data management platform for HPs global consulting business to build custom DW, MDM, and other analytics-intensive applications for clients.Furthermore, the HP-Informatica alliance represents a new lease on life for Neoview, which, though it has achieved respectable adoption in the three years since it was released, has not been a rousing success in the DW market. The vendors joint development deal holds out the hope that Neoview will evolve into a more feature-complete data management and analytics platform. This is the best hope for Neoview, which, until the Informatica announcement, appeared to be drifting as a solution platform in HPs increasingly professional-service-centric data management strategy. But the downside of the Informatica deal for HP is undeniable. For starters, the HP-Informatica alliance is likely to elicit a wall of indifference from prospective SI customers if it cant effectively differentiate itself from a multitude of other partnerships between DW platform vendors, SI firms, and data integration solution providers. This is a non-exclusive deal, after all, which sows doubt as to whether HP is truly committed to the relationship on a high strategic level. Yes, Neoview has a new lease on life, but that could quickly fade away if the promised solution appliancesincorporating Informatica softwaretake forever to come to market.The deal also highlights the fact that the HP-Informatica offering will likely, barring addition to other partners in the near future, fail to deliver a joint solution with the functional breadth of the forthcoming IBM Smart Analytics System offerings. Obvious components missing from a joint HP-Informatica software portfolio include MDM, BI, business performance solutions (BPS), predictive analytics and data mining (PA/DM), and text analytics. One could even make a case for the Informatica deal representing HPs last brave attempt to mount a credible data management software strategy. It highlights the question in many industry observers minds: Does HP want to be in the business of data management software? For years, analysts, soothsayers, and other fun-loving rumor-mongers have questioned if and when HP will evolve its data management strategy from primarily a services-driven modelplus an also-ran of a DW appliance product (Neoview)--to a full-fledged software and services platform vendor that could compete head to head with the likes of IBM, Oracle, SAP, and others. However, the Informatica deal does not take HP to that critical next strategic step.If HP is truly serious about becoming a full-fledged data management software provider, now is the time to make strategic acquisitions in the DI, DQ, MDM, BI, PA/DM, and other key solution markets. With over $13 billion cash in HPs war chest as of July 31, 2009 (according to its Q3 2009 financial statement), HP certainly can afford such acquisitions. It could even afford to acquire Informatica, which, however, wouldnt come cheap.But what HP cannot afford is to let the window of opportunity slam shut. It cannot afford to make any acquisitions of this magnitude, and then fail to capture and grow a very significant share of the data integration, data quality, data warehousing, and BI software markets. So is the partnership with Informatica a proof of concept for future acquisition or is it simply HP BISs answer: We are a services business and we will leave software to our partners? We dont know if this is the first step of a broader software strategy, or an admission that HP does not see itself as a major data management solutions provider. If its the latter, Forrester would not be surprised to see Neoview either spun off or sold to a full-fledged data management solution provider (perhaps Informatica, though SAP would also be a potential suitor) that needs a scalable, real-time DW appliance platform.We dont expect Neoview to die on the vine of HPs sometimes unclear data management solution focus. But we would hate to see this impressively engineered DW appliance platform dangle in the shifting winds of HPs strategy for the business intelligence market.

Biz buzz: May 6
Museum eatery opens
The well-known rhino sculpture on the front lawn of Museum London is now backed up by a tasty namesake.
The Rhino Lounge opened a few weeks ago in a renovated and enlarged space formerly occupied by the museum gift shop.
The coffee house is the latest business for Jessica Jazey-Spoelstra, who opened the adjacent River Room restaurant in a scenic corner of the museum two years ago.
Jazey-Spoelstra said museum officials invited her to expand the operation to add a second, more casual eatery.
"I thought I could make a go of this if I do it differently enough."
A London native, Jazey-Spoelstra started North Moore Catering in 2008 after working for years in the trendy Tribeca neighborhood of Manhattan.
The Rhino Lounge seats 40 and features made-from-scratch croissants, bagels, doughnuts and other baked goods prepared by pastry chef Michelle Lenhardt. The shop serves a wide range of coffee and teas, wines and local craft beers as well as sandwiches, tacos, salads, shakes and smoothies.
In a couple of weeks, big red umbrellas will sprout on the lawn when the Rhino Lounge opens its outdoor patio.
Jazey-Spoelstra expects to have soft-serve ice cream available this summer, catering to the families flocking to the splash pad at the Forks of the Thames.
Boosters rewarded
Two London-area tech boosters are being honoured for their efforts to help local entrepreneurs.
Startup Canada, a national organization founded in 2012 to support entrepreneurs, named Joel Adams of London its Ontario entrepreneurship ecosystem builder of the year.
A technology consultant, Adams, 37, co-founded Hacker Studios in 2013 to fill gaps in London's startup system. The facility offers co-working space tailored to growing companies, community events and support programs, often presented with local partners. Adams also teaches entrepreneurship at Western University's faculty of engineering and was previously director of Western University's Research Parks.
Adams also is a board member of Downtown London, Emerging Leaders and the Southwestern Ontario branch of Canadian Manufacturers and Exporters.
Gary Will of Strathroy is receiving Startup Canada's lifetime achievement award. He's a roving entrepreneur for Communitech, the economic development agency for tech companies in Waterloo Region. Will's award reflects his work in supporting Waterloo startups and his support for various organizations in Southwestern Ontario, including Hacker Studios.
Winners will receive their awards at the Ontario finals celebration May 8 at Hacker Studios.
The national awards will be presented June 9 in Toronto.
Star Tech ranked high
London-based StarTech.com, a leading manufacturer of hard-to-find tech connectivity parts, is celebrating two more prestigious distinctions:
The company is ranked one of the top-50 tech companies in Canada by Branham300 and is also been named as a gold standard winner for the best managed companies award.
The Branham300 is a listing of Canada's top publicly traded and privately held information and communication technology (ICT) companies, as ranked by revenues. StarTech.com was ranked 46th on the 2014 list, up from 54th last year.
In addition, StarTech.com was elevated to gold standard winner for Canada's Best Managed Companies award. Sponsored by Deloitte, the national awards program recognizes Canadian companies that have implemented world-class business practices and created value in innovative ways.
Funding workshop
"Thinking Outside the Box" is the topic of workshop that will be presented Wednesday, sponsored by the Pillar Nonprofit Network.
Timothy Jack Nash, treasurer for the Ontario Nonprofit Network, will speak about helping organizations tap into new sources of funding.
The event will be held from 9 a.m. to noon at the Stevenson and Hunt Room of the Central Library. Admission is $55 for Pillar member and $70 for non-members.

Hirsute hockey fans
The playoff beard is a fine tradition among Canadian hockey players and the staff of Digital Echidna have decided to get in the spirit of the game to benefit London charities.
Eight staff members of the London digital services company went clean shaven to participate in the Digital Echidna Playoff Beard Grow Off.
The clean-shaven faces are available at live-beard-grow-off.gotpantheon.com, along with participant hockey cards including photos and bios.
Londoners will be able to bet on which Echidna staffer will grow the longest beard by May 30.
Each bet costs $10 and all funds will be donated to Digital Echidna's charity of choice — the Echidna Solutions Corporation Community Investment Fund administered by the London Community Foundation.
One of the bettors who voted for the winner will win a prize.
"We have a lot of hockey fans — hairy hockey fans, as it turns out — here at Digital Echidna," said content strategist Jay Menard.
"We also have a lot of staff that are strongly involved in their communities."

Fresh Water
Securing the Future of New Hampshire's Rivers and Streams
New Hampshire's intricate network of rivers and streams delivers the lifeblood of fresh water to cities and towns across the state. They give us drinking water and absorb floodwaters, provide nutrients to the sea and to our farmlands, generate energy and offer scenic spots to fish, boat and swim—all while sustaining myriad natural communities.
In our efforts over time to grow crops, expand cities, generate electricity and keep floods at bay, we have thrown many of these systems out of balance, disrupting connections and impairing the ability of our waters and lands to support life and livelihoods.
The Nature Conservancy has a vision to restore and sustain fresh waters in the Granite State and ensure that they will continue to support the people, plants and animals that depend on them. With your help, we can turn that vision into reality and use science to create alternatives to destructive and wasteful ways of using water.

One thing that I have learned as a parent is the fact that I took my parents for granted. I never realized everything that went into raising a family. Growing up my parents always went above and beyond the call of duty. They did everything from playing cab driver to volunteering at school functions (and everything in between).
I remember so vividly as a child going to piano lessons during the summer, the lessons were fun, it was the practice at home I didn't like. I wish that I would have realized the opportunity they were giving me instead of thinking 'why is she making me do this.' Part of my problem was, I had never been exposed to any type of musical instrument until that summer. I believe that if I would have been introduced to it when I was very little, I would have grown up loving it.
With the Schoenhut 18 Key My First Piano now you can introduce your baby to a musical instrument before they even begin to walk. We received the precious red toy piano and my children were thrilled. As you can see from the picture they were both playing on it at the same time. It is the perfect height for both of my children to sit on the floor and play it. Although no one in my family can play a tune we have had fun trying to play a song. My First Piano comes with Schoenhut's play-by-color teaching method and comes with removable color strips that fit behind the keys to guide your little one's fingers from chord to chord. Also included is a Songbook containing some of your favorite tunes.
The learning system is designed to make learning fun and simple. I have to admit, I think I had just as much fun as the children did trying to play different songs. The width of the keys are specifically design to encourage the correct finger placement to make transition from the My First Piano to a large piano. With Christmas right around the corner, this would make a perfect gift for that special youngster in your life. The Schoenhut 18 Key My First Piano retails for $55-65.

As predicted, a steady increase in the number of card-not-present transactions combined with the U.S. EMV implementation making card fraud in stores more difficult has led to significant growth in CNP fraud around the world. While the problem is particularly acute for merchants, which bear the liability for the cost of fraudulent transactions, issuers bear costs associated with increasing fraud rates as well. Toronto-based Ethoca has been at the forefront of an effort to unite the concerns of merchants and issuers on this matter by establishing a collaborative network that attempts to alert merchants to cases of confirmed fraud before they become chargebacks, which affect the revenue of both constituencies.
The company, which recently released a report examining the problem of false declines that can stem from overly stringent antifraud efforts, last week unveiled a partnership with data analytics firm FICO that will enable more merchants to become part of its network. Under the agreement, issuers that use FICO's Falcon Fraud Manager solution can connect to and automatically alert merchants on Ethoca's network when one of its cardholders confirms a fraudulent transaction. When merchants are able to intervene with a consumer before the dispute becomes a chargeback, all sides can reduce costs and merchants are able to preserve their relationship with their customers.
"This first step in our partnership gives card issuing banks access to the largest card issuer-merchant collaboration network in the world," said Robert Duque-Ribeiro, vice president and general manager for Fair Isaac Advisors at FICO. "That means they are now able to recover issuer-liable fraud losses like 3D Secure transactions and low-value transactions they would normally write off, while making the recovery of merchant-liable CNP fraud transactions faster and much more cost-effective."

Make sure all network machines can ping each other. You might need to list all the network machines' IPs as part of each machine's file, or have a DHCP server configured.
Before running XAP, make sure your network interface supports multicast, and the appropriate routes are properly configured.
To check if your network interface supports multicast, run the following
If the
attribute in the fourth line of the
properties is not present, it's possible that your kernel has not been compiled with multicast support. Before re-compiling the kernel, try enabling multicast on your network interface (
in this case) via
To check that multicast routing is configured, run the following
If the destination
entry is not present, you need to enable multicast routing.
To enable multicast routing, run the following
command as
On Redhat systems you can configure this route statically via the network setup configuration tools – see: redhat - Chapter 6. Network Configuration .
Alternatively, try executing the command above as part of a startup script in
For more details on Linux and commands, refer to:
tcpdump is another useful command which dumps traffic on a network:
By default multicast is not allowed between the virtual machines, so the unicast should be configured instead
To enable multicasting from a token ring on a Windows® 2000 workstation to any Windows 98/NT machine, set the

in the Windows 2000 registry:

value specifies the number of routers (hops) that multicast traffic is permitted to pass through before expiring on the network. For each router (hop), the original specified TTL is decremented by one (1). When its TTL reaches a value of zero (0), each multicast datagram expires and is no longer forwarded through the network to other subnets.
The problem of multicasts/broadcasts not passing the router/switch is a well known issue - most routers (Cisco, 3Com, etc) have multicast forwarding disabled by default - otherwise the networks will be flooded with packets coming from very distant locations. To get it delivered all over the globe takes below 30 hops, so TTL 20 means delivery to more than half of it. It is very common that network experts in large networks hate the flooding problem caused by multicasts/broadcasts sent with the large TTL, and block it.
Multicast is the delivery of information to a group of destinations simultaneously, using the most efficient strategy to deliver messages over each link of the network only once, and create copies only when the links to the destinations split.
The word "multicast" is typically used to refer to IP Multicast, the implementation of the multicast concept on the IP routing level, where routers create optimal spanning tree distribution paths for data grams sent to a multicast destination address in realtime. However, there are also other implementations of the multicast distribution strategy listed below. (Source - wikipedia:

XAP uses multicast in the following cases:
What should I do in order to determine if multicast is enabled on my environment? Refer to the How to Determine Whether Multicast is Available section for more details.What should I do in order to determine if multicast is enabled on my environment?
To enable the important capabilities above, you should enable multicast on machines running clients, spaces or services.
What should I do if I can't enable multicast?
In case you want to disable the Jini Lookup Service Multicast announcements please refer to this section in the Wiki.
Multicast is not a mandatory with XAP. It is used as a secondary mechanism for lookup service discovery. Unicast is the other mechanism. Both are turned on by default on the client side and on the service grid side (GSM,GSC,LUS).
Multicast is not used with replication , notification , monitoring or any client activity against the space. Disabling multicast discovery means you are loosing dynamicy for the lookup service location. This means if the lookup service fails (very low probably to happen) you will be able to start it only on the machines listed on the
list. Client
should have the same list used.
When multicast is disabled global lookup service should not be use. You should use only local lookup service configuration with the agent with the machines running the lookup service:
Machines not running the lookup service should have their agent started using:
The GSC count should be added to the commands above above as usual.
If you can't have multicast enabled within your network you should disable it on the client side and on the service grid side. It will save some CPU activity performed continuously.
In some cases, Linux distributions do not have multicast enabled by default and the
file does not include the IP address associated with the server's hostname. An error that is frequently met is:
hostname associated with the localhost
. The machine's hostname in
should be associated with the IP address set to the server's network interface, or to the external static NAT IP address of the server (the address clients should connect to). Make sure the

In Part II of the Skylight for Open Source Series, we explored how to spot problematic indexing using Skylight. In this installment, we'll dig into some hidden performance issues in another open source app: Code Triage .
Code Triage is an open source app built to help other open source projects. Popular open source projects receive a lot of bug reports, feature requests, and pull requests every day, and just reading through all of them can be a huge time sink for their maintainers. Here at Skylight, we are
PRETTYLITTLETHING Plus Stone Wrap Detail Extreme Wide Leg Trousers Real Sale Online a2WivC15Bu
in a number of popular open source projects ourselves, so we understand this problem pretty well!
Code Triage lets you help out your favorite project maintainers by sending contributors a random ticket to their inboxes on a daily basis, which allow them to help triage GitHub issues and pull requests. That way, contributors can help split the workload, so everyone only has to do a little bit of work each day. Today, there are tens of thousands of developers who signed up to help thousands of open source projects on the site.
Running an app at this scale creates some pretty unique challenges. A quick glance at Code Triage's home page reveals some of the most popular projects and shows exactly how many open issues need to be triaged.
This can be a lot of information to render, and it can get a little slow at times. However, this is also by far one of the most popular pages in the app, since it's what everyone sees first when they visit the site.
Skylight marks Code Triage's homepage as an endpoint with "high agony", which means that we'll probably get good bang for our buck if we choose to optimize it.
Notably, even though there's a lot of information on the home page, most of these things don't actually change all that often, which makes this page a prime candidate for caching. But, as it turns out, a lot of performance-minded people have already done extensive work on Code Triage, so most things that should be cached actually already are !
However, when we took a closer look at this page on Skylight, we noticed that, in order to populate the
tag, we needed to run two queries to fetch the counts of users and projects on the site.
It's likely that these numbers didn't need to be super up-to-date, so we implemented some caching here. We submitted a

to cache this information for up to an hour.

API logging - How do I enable it? (before v. 4.0.0)
Enabling API logging enables OnTime support to see what traffic is being sent between the OnTime Group Calendar clients (or API) and the OnTime Group Calendar server. Enabling API logging is done by following the steps below:
Please note: The approach described in this document was changed in v. 4.0
- Locate the OnTime Group Calendar Configuration database on your workspace and make sure you have the [Developer] role assigned to you in the ACL of the database. Please note that you may have to create the role if it hasn't yet been created.
- Open the OnTime Group Calendar Configuration database.
- Go to the "Server Settings" by clicking "Server Settings" at the top of the left hand navigator.
- Open the server settings document for the server you will be accessing to reproduce the issue (or just open the one server settings document if you only have one OnTime Group Calendar server).
- Bring the document into edit mode and check the "Log API Comm." check box on the lower right side of the form.
- Save and close the document.
- Now reproduce the issue and send the OnTime Group Calendar log database to OnTime support as arranged with us.
Remember to turn off API logging once the issue has been reproduced as having API logging enabled may affect the performance of your server.
