I was visiting someone at the Winchester Hospital and needed to have a gel fill in done at no notice. I Googled and found Nailtiques just 10 minutes away and very easy to find. They were able to take me immediately. My technician was Jimmy, and he did an excellent job. Sometimes my technician at home, in Durham North Carolina, takes an hour or an hour and a half to do a complete fill in. Jimmy was done in 45 minutes with no sacrifice of quality. I am writing this review two weeks later, and my nails have held up perfectly. I would definitely recommend this place, especially for anyone visiting the Winchester Hospital.

I have been going to US Nails since it first opened - I love the nail techs, and they are friendly and very helpful. I always leave feeling great about my experience! Michelle was my tech for about 4 years and she left and now HOLLY handles my services, she is wonderful, funny and listens to what my style is and ask's me questions when she believes I want a nail done differently. This is the only place I will go- it is clean and the atmosphere is light! Larry does a great job updating the salon with paint and new fixtures! Very kind ladies with great customer service! Thank you!!
My fiancé and I decided to go here to get our nails done. We was the only two customers in the store. I got a pedi and mani and he just got the pedi. (He just goes to get his toes done and the massage to his calfs.) our pedis probably took no more than 10 minutes a person, they both rushed through it and didn't take their time whatsoever. After she got done with my toes I wanted a set of acrylics, she rushed through that as well and when I would ask her to fix one or shape a different one to match the others she would start to get hateful and short with me and rushed even more. My fiancé went to go pay and they charged us $10 more than what she told us before we started. Needless to say we won't be back...
I would recommend this place! They have great customer service and care about their customers. They even call when they are running late. How courteous is that! Thank you Nailtique for great customer service.
Very happy with the services here. I love the new owners and the make over of the salon. I get gel nails & pedicures and they do a great job. I love their gel polishes they offer too.I do suggest an appointment, as they are busy. Very pleasant staff.
Went in to get a nail fixed and a color change with a design (red tips with black lines under & design on ring finger). I paid before she started painting. She fed the red, then design but forgot the black line & when I mentioned it she got very angry, and started getting loud. I understand she may have not charged me and I would have been ok with paying more if that was the case. Then when I asked for a manager, no one wanted to let me know when one was going to be in. The manager showed and was just as rude and didn't help at all. He turned away and ignored me. Wouldn't answer any questions and had no reguard for his customers concern. I will not be returning. I've NEVER experienced something that unprofessional before and have NEVER had any issues in the 10+ years I've been having my nails done. Don't know the tech's name because they kept saying they didn't know her name.
Really bad customer service and rude people. Won't take your requests and get annoyed when you do make them.
I had both mani/pedi - French (pink/white tips) gel on both. Had this done at the beginning of Oct. for a wedding (which included some heavy duty hands on for me) - the following week was spent at the beach barefoot on the sand, fishing, handing hooks, bate, etc. I finally removed the polish the second week in Nov. the only reason? Because my nails were outgrowing the polish. There was not ONE nick in the polish on either my fingernails nor my toenails. It may not be the fanciest place in the world, but it worked for me above and beyond expectation. I'll definitely be going back.
Great cut... The kids love it. Place was very nice and the Mrs loved the wine while getting her hair done.
I have had several great experiences at this salon. Would recommend to anyone. They do a terrific job, and make you feel at home by constantly talking and joking with you. Terrific service and wonderful people!!!!

- Rare 1970's Maxon BC101 Battery Checker Vintage Effects Pedal w/Box
Rare 1970's Maxon BC101 Battery Checker Vintage Effects Pedal w/Box
Click here to visit our archive for in depth information, facts and specifications on the pedals we stock!
Out of stock
The Maxon BC101 is an incredibly rare oddity from Maxon's late 70's collection. The purpose of the BC101 was to use a 9v battery to test the juice of another 9v battery.. Simply plug the BC101 into the input jack of a pedal and choose "CHECK" mode, if the LED lights up then the pedals battery has life in it. The "TEST" mode is used to check the battery level of it's own battery.
It's hard to imagine why they didn't sell billions of these.. Either way this is one of the rarest pieces we've ever owned and is a great piece of pedal history.
Mint condition, works perfectly. Includes box and manual.

Why do Spirit Guides appear in human form if they are beings of light?
They present themselves in a form that will be acceptable to you. Human form is what we recognise so our spirit guides take that form. They also offer us the strengths and learning from the lifetime in which they take their form from. They are often souls you have spent past lifetimes with, sometimes many lifetimes with.
How many Spirit Guides do we have?
You have as many guides as you need. Your needs constanly change so do your guides. the needs of a child, adolescent, adult, parent and elderly person are all different. Whenever you change the direction of your life your needs change, so does your guidance.
Do all our Spirit Guides stay with us throughout our lifetime?
As your needs change so do your guides, they come and go as the need arises. Entities with direct connections with your needs are best placed to help you.
Have I known all my Spirit Guides in a previous life?
Entering the physical world we are somewhat blinded to the spiritual world we come from. It is much easier under these difficult circumstances to trust someone you have a connection with. The connection is not necisarily made in the physical plane it may have been made during your time in spirit.
Do we have Spirit Guides who do not present themselves in a physical body?
Your guides will appear in a form that is easiest for you to relate to, if that means having a physical body or a name then that is the way they will appear.
How would you know if your first meeting with your Spirit Guides – if the spirits that present themselves to you are not just some stray spirits and are your real Spirit Guides? How can you be sure?
If you Spiritually cleanse thoroughly and fill the room with white light before attempting to contact your Guides, that will keep out any negative entities, and your Guides will keep any wandering spirits that happen to be passing through from trying to make contact with you.

Partyka began playing table tennis at the age of seven. She won her first international table tennis medal in 1999 at the disabled World Championships.
At the age of 11, she competed at the 2000 Summer Paralympics in Sydney, becoming the world's youngest ever Paralympian. Partyka competed for Poland both the 2008 Summer Olympics and the 2008 Summer Paralympics in Beijing – one of only two athletes to do so, the other being Natalie du Toit in swimming.[4] They were her third Paralympic Games, and her first Olympics. Competing in class 10 at the Beijing Paralympics, she won gold by defeating China's Fan Lei by three sets to nil.[5]
In 2008, she won a gold medal in the singles event and a silver in the team event at the Beijing Paralympics, repeating her Athens Paralympics result.
She competed at the 2012 Summer Olympics and 2012 Summer Paralympics in London. In the Olympics, she competed in women's singles table tennis.[6] On 3 September 2012 Partyka defeated China's Qiang Yang 3–2 in the gold medal match to become Paralympic champion. On 8 September 2012 she won bronze in the women's team class 6–10, after defeating France 3–2.

Everything You Need to Know About the IP2Proxy Web Service
What You Need to Know About the Proxy?
A proxy web service works as an intermediary between the client and the server. You are likely familiar with VPN services or the TOR network. These provide incredible anonymity for their users by encrypting data or rerouting traffic.
Using a Proxy Web Service as a Web User
Proxy used to be happens in two typical fashions:
- Through hosting providers
- Installed on a local server
What do average Web users use proxies for?
The most common use of proxies is to access blocked content by bypassing filters. The filters are usually found at schools and government institutions. These locations usually have popular sites (like YouTube) blocked.
Other common uses for a proxy include:
- Avoiding advertising and third-party tracking cookies
- Getting around paywalls to news websites (like the New York Times)
- Protecting their identity when using peer-to-peer networks or torrenting
- Creating control over their private network with static IPs and filtering
- Running advertising and marketing campaigns undetected by competitors
There are also those that use proxies as a means of malicious intent. Hackers use proxies to avoid detection when executing exploits.
Proxies may also offer anonymity for those operating botnets. Botnets conduct large-scale DDoS attacks with the intention of disrupting services.
The proxy services are a tool, yet, and do not signify an immediate intent of wrong-doing. Most have intentions to use the service as a means to protect their online privacy.
What about the few outliers truly nefarious with their intentions? How could a company or individual protect themselves against such intrusion?
Using a Proxy Web Service as a Power User
System administrators want to understand where visitors are coming from. Understanding their location leads to better protection for their networks.
A sudden influx of IP addresses showing an anonymous IP is a likely indicator of a cyber-attack.
Cyber-attacks on systems storing private information -- credit card data or medical records -- happen often. The usual route is by using these anonymous addresses.
A way of pinpointing users is by using our IP2Location proxy web service.
Running the anonymous IP through the tool displays:
- Country code
- Net speed
- Connection type
- Geo-location
- Postal code
It's a tool meant to deter and detect fraud.
The information becomes valuable in the event an attack happens. The admin provides collected data to law enforcement. This includes the common event of social engineering. The social engineering is a way to access customer accounts for committing identity theft.
The IP2Location proxy web service is available via:
- Database
- Hosted solution

This was a good fit due to frame style as other 24" wheel mountain bikes he could not put his feet down on. Unless wanting a really expensive pro bike for your child I researched a lot and couldn't find anything close to this offering for similar cost. Whilst pricey compared to other kids general mountain bikes, well worth it if you are after features - front suspension, disc brakes and a decent set of gears. Frame is light, solid and it looks like a grown up bike which many youth bikes don't. Son is very happy with it.Date published: 2018-01-21Rated 5 out of 5 by Gemz4 from Carrera blast Lovely bike just collected from store today for my son for christmas, sure he will love it!Date published: 2017-12-06Rated 3 out of 5 by DLongie from Carerra bike Collected this bike for a Christmas present, it was carried to and from the car and put inside the house, where the tyre went flat, took back today and they inflated the tyre, by the time I got home it was flat again , so another trip to Halfords again !!Date published: 2017-11-20

Lesson Summary
Students explore what it means to speak out for your beliefs, or to right a wrong. After watching a short video, they will reflect on Douglass's courage and the importance of literacy in his activism. They will read excerpts from Douglass's autobiographies and examine an 1850 etching of Douglass being pulled away from a stage prior to giving a speech. Finally, they will reflect on Douglass's importance as both a historical figure and as a role model for their own lives.
Time Allotment
20 - 40 minutes
- Abhorrence – dislike
- Despondent – sad
- Eloquent – well-spoken
- Skeptic – a person who has a doubting attitude
Abolitionist Movement – In the decades leading up to the Civil War, Americans who were opposed to slavery advocated for the emancipation of enslaved people and end the institution of slavery. A common tactic used by abolitionists was to have formerly enslaved people speak about their experiences. Frederick Douglass became the most well known of these speakers.

Emancipation Proclamation - President Abraham Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation on January 1, 1863, as the nation approached its third year of bloody civil war. The proclamation declared "that all persons held as slaves" within the rebellious states "are, and henceforward shall be free."
Source: https://www.archives.gov/exhibits/featured_documents/emancipation_proclamation/
Background on Frederick Douglass | Orator, Editor and Abolitionist
Frederick Douglass was born in 1818, during the time when the Abolitionist Movement was growing in influence and slavery was beginning to divide the growing nation. He was born into slavery in Maryland, taken away from his mother, and by the age of seven sent to Baltimore to work. At age 12, he began secretly teaching himself to read and write, which was against the law for slaves.
Two attempts to escape slavery failed. Finally, on September 3, 1838, he succeeded in a daring escape with the help of a free black woman named Anna Murray. Frederick had fallen in love with Anna and eleven days later he was able to marry her. The couple settled in New Bedford, Massachusetts, where Douglass sought work as a free man.
Douglass could have simply vanished into the safety of obscurity. Instead at the age of 23, Douglass began giving eloquent, emotional speeches about his life as a slave. Audiences rose to their feet to applaud the young man who bravely called for racial equality and the end of slavery.
His first autobiography, Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, an American Slave, was published in 1845, and became an immediate bestseller. At the time, skeptics insisted a Black man could not have produced such a moving and beautiful piece of literature. At risk of recapture by bounty hunters, Douglass traveled overseas, in part to remain safe.
Trips to England exposed him to a level of equality he never experienced back home and he saw what could be possible for his own country.
Returning two years later, Douglass went on to publish the North Star, a weekly abolitionist newspaper. When the Civil War broke out, Douglass, now famous, advised President Abraham Lincoln on the role and treatment of black soldiers.
The North won the war, and slavery was eventually abolished. Douglass worked diligently his entire life to improve the lives of African Americans.
His wife Anna passed away in 1882, and Douglass remarried Helen Pitts in 1884. Douglass was the son of a black woman born into slavery, and an unknown white man. Pitts was the daughter of white parents who were abolitionists. Despite her parents' political views, they opposed the marriage because of Douglass's race. Interracial marriage was not formally legalized in the United States until 1967.
The couple endured public scorn. Still, the marriage lasted until the end of Douglass's life. On February 20, 1895, Douglass received a standing ovation following a speech he gave in Rochester, New York. He died of a heart attack later that day.
Introductory Activity
(5 minutes)
Ask students, by a show of hands, if they have ever spoken up for something they believe in. Then, ask them to leave their hands up if they would be willing to risk physical harm to take this stand.
Introduce Frederick Douglass:
Frederick Douglass, once he had fled enslavement could have chosen to live a life of obscurity. Instead, he became an outspoken critic of the institution of slavery, not just for personal reasons, but for moral reasons as well.
Learning Activities
Video and Class Discussion (10 minutes)
Distribute Graphic Organizer for students to fill out while viewing the video.
Download Graphic Organizer [PDF]
Discussion questions after viewing:
1. What was the biggest challenge Douglass faced? What was his most significant act of bravery?
2. In what ways were reading and writing examples of Douglass's bravery? What risks did he take to learn to read and write? How did the contents of his writing indicate his courage?
3. What might have motivated Douglass to continue to speak out, even after being physically attacked and having his hand broken?
4. If Douglass were alive today, on what issues would you want him to speak out?
Examining Primary Sources
Visual Primary Source Activity (10 minutes)
Project or make copies of the following image, a Winslow Homer illustration from Harper's Weekly from December 15, 1860. A general interest news magazine, Harper's took a moderate stance on the issue of slavery in order to maintain its position as the most widely read periodical in the country prior to and during the Civil War.
Ask students to examine the print and describe what they see. Ask them to try to identity Frederick Douglass in the print. He is the figure on stage with arms raised. Then ask them to make predictions about what is going on in the scene.
Explain that Douglass, and William Lloyd Garrison, another abolitionist, were slated to speak to an abolitionist group in Boston, Massachusetts, not long after Abraham Lincoln was elected President. The meeting was disrupted by anti-abolitionists. The police arrived, and Douglass, along with Garrison, was forcibly removed from the stage. Indicate that this image is a wood engraving, likely done from a sketch produced by an artist who was at the meeting.
1. Why would the abolitionists be removed from their own meeting?
2. What does this engraving indicate about Douglass's physical bravery?
3. Garrison is the man being arrested on the right. How does he look different in the picture from Frederick Douglass? What can you see in the picture that makes you think that?
4. How would you respond to a conflict like this? Which person in the image best represents your reaction?
Written Primary Source Activity (15 minutes)
In addition to writing many speeches, letters, news articles, etc., Frederick Douglass wrote three autobiographies. For an activity using quotations from two of these works, click here.
Download Written Primary Source Activity [PDF]
Culminating Activity
This can be done as an in-class follow-up to the lesson, as a homework assignment or as a multi-day in-class project.
To be completed using the Graphic Organizer.
Individually or in small groups, have students develop a plan for a Frederick Douglass memorial in their town or city. Students will need to:
- Develop a design for the memorial
- Write the text for an explanatory sign or plaque
- Determine the appropriate location for their memorial
- Explain how a Frederick Douglass memorial can inspire young people in the 21st Century
As an extension activity, students can write a letter to local authorities or to a local newspaper requesting that their memorial be erected.

Alright folks, today we are taking a break from our usual series on how to get rich using Social Media. What we are going to focus on is your Social Media "touches" for this week only (you should always be contacting, and supporting your network but this week it is extra important).
I am going to keep it short and sweet so you have time to generate more action. What you need to do is get your name out there. The first week of the year is when people are most amped for change. Maybe the guy down the street wants to list his house or the lady next door needs a new plumber to fix that pesky toilet she complained about all year. Odds are that people are looking to accomplish some sort of goal if not many!
How do you know who has what goal? #Hashtag #Hashtag #Hashtag.
Go on all of your Social Media sites, which ever you prefer. Your goal is to start searching by keywords for your industry! Throw in a new keyword such as, New Year, or resolution. See if you are able to pin point people who are looking to make change.
If your niche is somewhat unique and you do not find much in the way of #Hashtags or any keywords then DO NOT give up. Often times people do not know what they need until you let them know. People are looking for guidance and the next best thing. Go ahead and message your friends happy new year. Hire a kid from down the block to sit on your computer for a few hours tweeting, messaging, etc. The point is to reach as many people in your network as possible.
Another way to wish your network a wonderful new year is by creating a short video. Everyone loves videos, you can send one through messengers or post to peoples walls. Your video does not have to be pitchy but rather it must relate with your audience on goal setting. Explain briefly why your service can help them create a awesome new year!
So that's all for my new years pitch… Go contact as many people as possible via Social Media. Make the "touches" personal to build rapport with each individual in your network. Let them know why they need your service!

The Best Practices and Style Guide document that is located within our website provides a detailed rundown of the website's various features and how they should be implemented. However, for those simply interested in the new features it doesn't provide a summary, which is the purpose of this document. A general explanation of the project itself is available in our Overview document.
The older Trojan website template does not provide a complete, mobile-compatible website. Instead, it used an older approach of providing a small, mobile-specific site that offered a very limitied number of pages and resources.
This new design uses a responsive framework (specifically, Bootstrap 3 for those that are interested). A responsive design simply means that a webpage will adjust and change to better match the display that it is view in. You can test this on a desktop simply by reducing the size of the browser window to see how content reflows.
In some cases certain elements appear, disappear or function differently when viewed on a mobile or tablet device. Every single page that uses this template will be responsive.
Instead of having a search box that is always visible we have a search bar that only appears when one clicks on a "Search" link in the website. Why have we chosen to hide these elements by default? This is where responsive design comes into play. On a mobile device having a search box (or boxes) always visible takes up a lot of screen space. By hiding these elements, yet making them easily accessible, we have provided functionality that works well for both mobile and desktop. We also added a new feature simply referred to as "#hashtags", which are described in a later section.
Website search is a frequently used feature that visitors will go to when they cannot quickly find something in the navigation menus. However, while the search does work well it often includes many results that are not necessarily what a visitor is looking for. One method that we've implemented to assist with this, and to also serve a function similar to that of QR codes, is something that we're currently referring to as "#hashtags".
These are specific words or phrases, without spaces or capitalization, that are preceeded with the hashtag symbol. By entering a hashtag into the standard website search a visitor will be directly to a specific location. One would provide a defined hashtag in advance to a visitor. For example, hashtags for specific events could be created. Hashtags are site-agnostic, meaning that they can forward visitors to resources outside of the Trojan website.
Enter #hashtags into the search box to view the complete list of active hashtags.
In the new design our goal was to simplify the menu systems rather then provide all-inclusive menus, which are sometimes referred to as mega-menus. There are only two types of navigation menus in this design. The first is the top-level menu that is shared across common pages that do not belong to a specific division, college, department or other categorization. The menu is exactly the same in all pages that share this menu.
The second type of menu is a custom menu that is specific to a division, college or department. All categories and links may be customized though every menu will have a Home link that returns to the homepage for that area and also an IT-managed "Trojan" menu that is always the first item in any menu, which contains common resources as well as a link to the new Trojan homepage.
Despite this simplified approach visitors should be able to quickly navigate the website itself just from the navigation menus. The simplified approach is also more mobile-friendly; multi-level mega-menus can be come difficulty to use on mobile devices.
We've also added breadcrumbs, which provide for single-click access to the Trojan homepage, and area's homepage and they can also be useful for understanding where a visitor is in the website.
In an effort to ensure a greater degree of consistency we have established a Best Practices & Style Guide document. This document will primarily be of use to web developers. It clearly demonstrates how specific types of comments should be defined.
The current Trojan site still uses older HTML elements and structures. The new design is built using HTML5 standards.


text: i've just started using PicoDrive1.51b on a PSP slim, been trying thunderforce 4 and sonic. Everything starts fine and works but after a few minutes in game it always crashes. Note the emulator's menu system still works but the emulated game freezes. I've even tried saving a state and reloading it, but it still freezes at the same point. It's as if i'm using a demo copy and i'm being asked to pay for the full version. any advice people

- Forgiving and Reconciling, by Everett L. Worthington
In 1996, Thordis Elva shared a teenage romance with Tom Stranger, an exchange student from Australia. After a school dance, Tom raped Thordis, after which they parted ways for many years. In this extraordinary talk, Elva and Stranger move through a years-long chronology of shame and silence, and invite us to discuss the omnipresent global issue of sexual violence in a new, honest way.


text: Technical Article Hash Load Balancing and Persistence on BIG-IP LTM Updated 15-Apr-2010•Originally posted on 11-Dec-2007 by Deb Allen 985 article availability big-ip news techtip virtualization Cache Load Balancing High Level Single node persistency is most important. The least impacting redistribution of traffic Simple implementation Load balancing of cache and proxy servers has long been a standard task for F5's BIG-IP LTM. However, cache and proxies have unique requirements over other types of applications. It's not realistically possible to cache an entire site, let alone the Internet, on a single cache device. The solution is to intelligently load balance requests and 'persist' them to a specific cache not based on who the client is, but based on the content requested. In a forward proxy example, all requests for site1.com would go to cache1 while all requests for site2.com go to cache2. Since each cache gets all the requests for their respective sites, they will have the most up to date version of the content cached. This also allows the caches to scale more efficiently as each would only need to cache N percent of the possible destination content. In BIG-IP LTM nomenclature, adding more members (nodes or servers) to the pool reduces the percent of content such as URIs that any cache server needs to store. While this document addresses cache load balancing, the concepts and scripts are easily adapted to a wide range of uses. The solutions discussed cover BIG-IP LTM all version 9.x, except for Election Hash which takes advantage of commands added in version 9.4.2. Hash Persistence on BIG-IP LTM There are unlimited variations of hashing available with the LTM's iRules. This document will focus on three of the most representative of these options, pointing out the strengths and weaknesses of each. The goal of each is the same, to ensure an equal and consistent distribution of requested content across an array of devices. This document focuses on hashing the HTTP URI, however this can easily be substituted for other content such as [HTTP::uri], [HTTP::host], [HTTP::cookie <cookiename>] or [IP::client_addr], to name a few. For a site doing virtual hosting, it may be worthwhile to use [HTTP::host][HTTP::uri] which would capture a request such as: [www.site1.com][/index.html] Hashing is both a persistence and load balancing algorithm. While you can configure a load balancing algorithm within a pool, it will always be overridden by the hash if everything is working correctly. By default the LTM load balances new connections, which are different than requests. OneConnect must be enabled in order to have the LTM separate and distinctly direct unique HTTP requests over an existing TCP connection. See this article for more information.

See section 3.1 'Hash Function'. Have you tried using the less CPU intensive CARP algorithm? It relies on a lightweight binary bit rotate rather than a CPU intense md5 call. While TCL doesn't have a built in bit rotate like C does, you can code an equivalent function to do it.I'm not sure how to do it in TCL, but here is how I approached the bitwise rotate left in Perl (note, i'm not a programmer so expect ugly Perl).sub Rotate_Left { my $rlval =0;# the passed in int to bit rotate my $x = shift(@_);# how many positions to rotate my $n = shift(@_); my $rval = $x << $n; $rlval = ((($x) << ($n)) | (($x) >> (32-($n)))); return $rlval;}The rotate is only part of the CARP hash algorithm- the rest includes some further simple bit calculations that help to further randomize the node name/ip since they are often similar.The algorithm is clearly laid out in the RFC. I have more ugly Perl code for the whole algorithm if you're interested.so while the iRule would be much longer and a bit more complicated, it (in theory) could be much more efficient and scalable. what do you think? 0 Comment made 09-Dec-2008 by Colin Walker 3811 That sounds very cool! I'll have to go browse around a bit and take a look.Thanks!#Colin 0 Comment made 06-Aug-2009 by Paul 0 One issue i have found with this is around object distribution.If you have a reasonable number of caches, say around 30 and you use the example of:[crc32 $CURRENT_NODE[HTTP::uri]]You end up with a very large number of small objects residing on one cache, and if you lose that cache they all get redistributed to a single cache. favicon is a good example.I am testing out this:[crc32 $CURRENT_NODE[HTTP::host][HTTP::uri]]It is more specific and seems to prevent this from occurring, it also adds minimal extra characters to the crc calculation.On a secondary note however, I am not sure how far this will scale, the higher the volume of http transactions and larger the pool of node the more crc calculations you will have to do.So a simple question is, with CMP will the iRule execute on separate TMM processes? So far i see the traffic flows on each of the TMM processes but the iRule is only executed in TMM0 which worries me a bit. Anyone have an idea on this?NB. Ihave no persistance, ASM, Web Accelerator or global variables in the rule. 0 Comment made 10-Aug-2009 by Paul 0 As an update to my earlier post:It turns out that if you have one VIP forwarding to another both must be CMP capable.If the first VIP is not then the second will not switch between TMM processes as this is one flow within that TMM and you are restricted to the same TMM. 0 Comment made 08-Oct-2009 by NathanM 0 It's been terrific to explore the world of consistent hashing and see how it can affect real world scenarios. I've had the chance to work with several dozen companies that have deployed this iRule with great success. Recognizing the popularity of this feature, F5 has incorporated the Election Hash concept into the native LTM code. You can now find this in v10 and later buried under Profiles > Persistence > Hash > Algorithm > CARP. Select this, create a small iRule (below) that finds the content you wish to hash upon, apply to your virtual server, and you are good to go. This will scale to vastly higher numbers of nodes with minimal CPU. Give it a try.when HTTP_REQUEST { persist hash [HTTP::uri]} 0 Comment made 11-Oct-2009 by Paul 0 This is welcome news.A couple of questions:1. Is this for one pool of nodes only, it seems to be the case?2. Is there a limit when you start to worry about the number of nodes?3. What does higher numbers equate to in the F5 Lab?4. What http request volume was it tested against?I think ill run off now and try this out. 0 Comment made 14-Apr-2010 by danny tan 0 there are about 420 members,1000 HTTP request per second,MD5 use 70% cpu and CRC32 use 50% cpu in 3600LTM,is there any way to use less cpu?BTW:use uie persist only use 10% cpu. 0 Comment made 14-Apr-2010 by Paul 0 Are you able to share your irule for this?Are you doing 1 crc32 calc per node per request?If you are then 50% cpu is very respectable and better than i can get with a viprion blade (85% for crc calcs) doing 8k requests/sec and only 30 nodes.Have you tried the CARP persistence method at all that is in 10.1? 0 Comment made 14-Apr-2010 by danny tan 0 the rule seems not difference.And I only run the rule on v947.because persit uie only run at tmm0,so I use the rule to run all traffice with cmp.but it seems that the rule use more cpu than persist uie,because there are too many members in pool. is there any way to run all the traffice better?when HTTP_REQUEST { set ucid_uri [findstr [HTTP::uri] "uid=" 5 "&"] persist uie $ucid_uri 1200}when HTTP_REQUEST { set ucid_uri [findstr [HTTP::uri] "uid=" 5 "&"] set S "" foreach N [active_members -list [LB::server pool]] { if { [crc32 $N$ucid_uri] > $S } { set S [crc32 $N$ucid_uri] set W $N # log local0. "the md5 is $S and pool is $W" } } pool [LB::server pool] member [lindex $W 0] [lindex $W 1]} 0 Comment made 14-Apr-2010 by NathanM 0 If you have a finite and reasonable number of objects you could persist upon, then storing the persist table in memory is a great solution. As your numbers show, the 'persist uie' method is relatively inexpensive. Hashing, and especially consistent hashing such as CARP/Election Hash will incur higher CPU, but it provides other potentially important advantages such as unlimited number of persistable objects and multiple LTMs that can compute the same persistence results. A small optimization that is often overlooked: the content you are looking to hash on is in the HTTP query, not the path portion of the URI. Changing [findstr [HTTP::uri] to [findstr [HTTP::query] will be more efficient as the LTM doesn't need to perform this operation on the entire URI. In this example: http://www.f5.com/folder1/index.html?uid=nathan&browser=firefox www.f5.com is the HTTP::host, folder1/index.html is the HTTP::path, and uid=nathan&browser=firefox is the HTTP::query. When doing a search against the HTTP::uri, the LTM is searching the path first, then the query. In order to reduce the CPU overhead of consistent hashing, you can (and have) substituted MD5 for CRC32. All requests being equal, you'll find some lumpiness in the server utilization, but you'll shave ~30-50% CPU off the impact of running the iRule. Right now you are seeing 10% CPU with a simple rule doing memory based persistence. I'm guessing this rule is adding not much more than 1% CPU, and the rest is just the CPU required to push packets, load balance, provide protocol sanitization, etc. You are seeing 50% with CRC32 and 70% with MD5. So I'm again guessing that the iRule impact is ~1% for persist UIE, 40% CRC32, and 60% for MD5, plus 9.99% CPU for general load balancing overhead. The real CPU hit is not from the number of requests per second, but the number of servers in the pool. The LTM is performing 420 hashes per request, and 1,000 reqs per second, or about 420,000 per second on your LTM 3600. That's a staggering number, and a real testament to just how fast the LTM really is to be able to accomplish this. An easy method for you to bring the CPU impact down is to use the 'compound election hash' method described at the end of this article. http://devcentral.f5.com/Default.aspx?tabid=63&PageID=153&ArticleID=135&articleType=ArticleView The idea is to break up your 420 servers into a number of smaller pools. So if you had 4 pools of 105 servers each and used the compound variant of the iRule, you would be performing 1 + 105 hashes per request, times 1,000 req/s, or 106,000 per second. If your MD5 hashing rule had an impact of 60% (plus 10% for LB), I would make a rough guess that you will see your total CPU at about 26% (a little over 15% for the MD5 rule + 10%). You could further lower that number by breaking up the servers into a greater number of pools. The better answer is to upgrade to version 10. Yes, I know upgrades are a pain, but it's absolutely worth it for all the goodies and improvements it brings. v10 incorporates a similar variant of Election Hash into the kernal level code, and is insanely faster. You can still persist on any custom data using an iRule to find the data, and the built in Hash Persistence profile, which now has a new option to select the hash algorithm. You'd want to choose CARP (cache array routing protocol). Here's an example of the iRule you'd use. You'll select this iRule in the Hash Persistence profile page.when HTTP_REQUEST { persist hash [findstr [HTTP::query] "uid=" 5 "&"]} A new 'persist carp' command, documented in the Wiki, has also been added into version 10.1 to make it easier to create and modify the Election Hash algorithm. This is not required if you are using the native Hash profile. 0 Comment made 15-Apr-2010 by Paul 0 Hash election or carp is most useful when you want to spread the cache load across a farm AND not have duplicate objects stored in each cache, thereby gaining the most benefit you can from the storage and processing power you have.Another benefit i hadn't considered until Nathan pointed it out is that this behavior is consistent across physical LTM devices, so multiple active LTM's can help you to continue to scale if required. That is quite powerful.Nathan i understand that its the crc calcs that are causing load what i cant understand is how a 3600 can do a staggering 420k/sec and a viprion blade cant do more than 70k/sec It seems incongruous.We use the hash to select a pool (we have 3) and then a hash to select the node (10 in each pool), and so only do 13 crc requests/http request, when the farm is full we hit 85% cpu at ~7k req/sec so that is ~91k crc calc / sec. Which is by no means insignificant, but its far short of 420k @ 70% ;-).I have modified the irule so that it is CMP capable and spread across all CPU cores as well.The only thing that we are doing that is different is we are checking the TCP payload for the GET string before we send it to the hash election VIP, so it is a VIP targeting VIP. but this should be quite low in terms of processing required, i hope.When you say it is 'insanely faster' have you seen any metrics on that? things like number of nodes tested etc.Also can you still hash based on the pools imlimentation or do all nodes need to be in a single pool? This might be covered by 'persist carp' i think?This is turning into a forum thread..

I would like to hash the URI, the query string and the ACCEPT header so I'm wondering if this is possible. 0 Comment made 2 months ago by jim0 0 You can hash/CARP on any string. You would need to pass all of the objects to the persist statement like this... CARP: when HTTP_REQUEST { persist carp [HTTP::uri][URI::query [HTTP::uri]][HTTP::header value ACCEPT] } or HASH: when HTTP_REQUEST { persist hash [HTTP::uri][URI::query [HTTP::uri]][HTTP::header value ACCEPT] } Here is an example of the concatenated string /apptest1.asp?parameter1=testparameter1=testacc_header | URI | query string | ACCEPT header value 0
