Looking for inspiration and enlightenment, I turned to the internet for help. I was feeling lost about the coming exam week and I wasn't sure I was ready to start studying for it. I came upon this Video by TED talks and I was surprised by how much it affected me. My life, (In my opinion) has never been the same. It's by Celeste Headlee. I don't really know who she is and what she's done but gee, she has really turned my "social life upside down and that was only 12 mins of watching her talk.
Her topic was all about communication and interacting with people. You may think that this topic has already been worn-out and had been talked about for a million times already — and to be honest, it has been. Almost all the advice that people can think of about conversations had already been given, recycled and repackaged. So what's so special about this one? What did she say to have so much effect?
I have read articles about "Making people love you" "Trust you more" and "Have better interactions" and they always usually start with cliche sentences like — "Be interested in what he/she is interested in", "Give effort to study about what the person likes and like it as well". At first it really did work out. People are more interested in conversing and hanging out with me and the usual awkward exchange of hi's and hello's would transform to 4 hours of phone calls and comments on photos. It works, it really does.
But what if it doesn't? And what if the person you're interested in, have interests that can not or will not give you the spark and the energy to talk about with him/her? What if you you dont have the luxury to involve yourself with their interest? Doesn't it feel insincere whenever you pretend to like something because you like person you're talking to? The speaker's answer?
DON'T. Don't converse.
Here's 6 of the tips I liked about Celeste's talk and my very own take on them.
1. Stop the BS. If you don't want to talk, dont. Never Multi-task.
This, for me, was a gold mine. It's so simple yet it made so much sense. How do you make better conversations? If you don't want to talk, you're not interested about the topic or just don't like the person, Don't. People, your friends or family deserves your whole attention. Deserves someone who's interested in talking and to respond, if you're not that person, then don't talk. It's either you wont really understand what you're talking about, you won't pay attention or it wouldn't really matter. I agree with this so much. No one deserves half-hearted conversations. Why should anyone pretend they're interested. Right?
2. It's two-way. Participate.
Congratulations if you had decided to converse then here are two things you have to remember —Respond and Be honest/Frank.
It's actually really easy. It's called "talking" because you guys are exchanging ideas, feelings and comments. The conversation will be so much better if both of you are honest with each other and if you guys are really participating in it. Ask questions. Say how you really truly feel. Be part of it. If you can't then stop.
3. Listen
This is actually requirement if you want to converse. Listen because you won't understand if you don't. Listen because you will learn. Listen because there are so many people who makes mistakes when they don't. Listen because you are interested. It all revolves around this.
4. Do not pretend like you know.
There are two things in this item that I wanna share.
A. When talking about feelings/confessions/memories
Don't ever pretend like you know how it feels when you don't. A lot of advice for topics like these would say — "Agree" make the person feel like you know what it feels, you understand what it felt like." Most of the time, doing this would make you look insincere. If you don't know how it feels, don't act like you do. Yes, you're looking for common ground and similarities but remember — we're talking about honesty and sincerity here. Feelings are different for everyone. Explore those differences. That would make a good conversation topic.
B. When talking about facts/events/information.
It's going to look really funny when someone says things that are inaccurate or false just to prove his/her wits or "excellence". If you don't know what happened at the end of the Harry Potter series, don't proclaim that you do. If you haven't read the case analysis of a certain incident, don't pretend that you do. How humiliating it must be to be proven wrong when you confidently state something false and get found out. I know how this feels and I have been through this a lot of times. How I wish I could have just said "I didn't know." than debate and be proven wrong. Making mistakes is a learning process but admitting you didn't know when you don't is also something we should practice.
5. Be open to learn
Have you heard of the saying — "Everyone is fighting a battle, be kind always."?
When conversing, be open to learn. Be open to ideas and emotions of other people. You may agree or disagree, you may not like what he/she is saying but isn't that one of the things that make conversations better? Diversity is what develops our critical thinking. When you're open to learn, new perspectives may arise for you. You get to see things better (or worst), you can see things and understand things from the view point of someone else. It's like being there yourself. When you're open to learn, you grow. And honestly, someone who's open to know more about what you've been to is so much easier to talk with.
6. Get ready to share who you are.
At the same time, being open to someone else's ideas and feelings means that you must also be open to share who you are to that person. Remember that a conversation is an exchange. It's an avenue for you and the person you're talking to, to get to know more about each other and learn things. Be a person who not only listens but also shares and participate. Be someone who people talk to because you're someone they learn from, you're a person they get advice from. When you do this, you have already achieved a "better conversation".

text: Comedy or Drama? Trinity's Alternate Chapter Comedy or Drama? Trinity's Alternate Chapter I suspect many authors go about deleting countless words on their pages. Normally, I delete thousands, if not tens of thousands of words during the writing process. I don't know why I chose to keep this half-a-chapter. Perhaps it's because chapter 16 in the book is the exact opposite. I had a hard time deciding if this chapter would be a comedic one, or more dark and dramatic. If you read below, I guess you'll know which one I went with for 17 Oct

Apparently, something(s) got lost in the translation here. At least, I hope so. This menu is from a French pizza place that I don't honestly believe serves "droppings of goat" on its Giant Salad, but, still you won't find me ordering it. There are quite a few easter eggs in the menu, which gave me and a bunch of my Facebook pals a few good laughs when I posted it over there. In the spirit of who-couldn't-use-a-few-good-laughs-on-a-Monday, I'm sharing it here, too. Bon appetite!
Thank you for reading A City Mom! If you've ever found a lawyer in your salad or have tried "goat on toast", then I insist you Like me on Facebook here and/or follow me on Twitter @acitymom

Mariah Carey is known for her reputed diva conduct, yet the claims ended up being genuine when Nicki Minaj got her out amid their stretch on American Idol! "I heard them saying 'Mariah doesn't need you on the board' however I resembled, 'No. I am companions with Mariah,'" she said on The Ellen DeGeneres Show. "Thus I went there and I began to feel a touch of the shade."
Be that as it may, Aguilera turned into a casualty when Carey pummeled her amid a gathering. "I think she got truly smashed, and she had quite recently truly disdainful things to state to me," she told GQ. "In any case, it was around then she had that breakdown, so she may have been exceptionally sedated." Ouch!
SoulCycle censure! At the point when Tia Mowry kept running into Charlize Theron at a turn class, the motion picture star declined to make casual discussion with the TV performer. "I stated, "Hello" and she really feigned exacerbation and stated, "Gracious my God,'" Mowry disclosed to In Touch.
At the point when a report uncovered Kristin Cavallari and Scott Disick were engaging in extramarital relations, the previous Hills star blamed Kim Kardashian for discharging the story! "With everything that is continuing for Kim, I feel like they're attempting to take the warmth off her," she said of Kardashian's 72-day separate embarrassment. "It's insolent to me and Jay and I think it just says a considerable measure in regards to their character."
Kelly Osbourne at last got her retribution on Aguilera when the songstress put on weight. "She called me fat for quite a long time," Osbourne told Glamor of Aguilera's tormenting. "F**k you, now you're fat, as well! Presently you know how it feels!"

12 Healthy Grocery Store Snacks
It's happened to probably every mom; we rush around all day and get to the store only to realize we are two nano-seconds away from a full on hangry meltdown along with our toddlers. Please tell me I'm not alone! And choosing the right snack at the grocery store when there are endless possibilities of snacks and treats can be a bit of a daunting challenge. So below are some of our go-to snacks that will keep you satisfied but won't wreck your healthy eating habits:
Energy Bars
If you are in the produce section, don't forget to check out the section of 100% juices and smoothies that are available. My favorite brands are Naked and Bolthouse. They offer fresh fruit ingredients without adding sugar or other fillers. They taste great and are definitely a top pick for those summer months when the weather is scorching.
Hard-Boiled Eggs
Did you know they sold pre-packaged hard boiled eggs at the store? They do! Usually you can find them in the deli department. But I've also seen them sneak into the produce and/or dairy. They are great for a snack that really keeps you full for the long haul. Eggs are a great re-fueling food for after workouts or for a snack in between meals on busy days.
Peanut Butter
There are so many ways you can enjoy peanut butter. If you are in a serious time crunch, plain peanut butter will certainly do the trick. But if you have a minute and you can swing it, grab something to dip into your PB. Top picks are pre-packaged apple slices, carrots or celery. You could also grab some pretzels or cracker to use as well. Look for the individual cups of peanut butter to keep it simple.
Tuna Packages
We love these for the protein and it's a great way to get those omega 3's. The packages they make now are perfect to grab and go. You can mix a package or light mayo in if you want or just grab a fork and go to town. We love these if you are looking for lunch while you are on the go. You can add some carrots and a fruit smoothie and be set for lunchtime when you're running around town.
Fresh Fruit
Pre-Packaged Produce
And while we are talking about items in produce, you can also try some of the great pre-packaged produce they have available. If you have a fork go for some precut melon or pineapple. Another fantastic option is baby carrots. Although they can be more expensive than getting it fresh, when you are needing a snack and you're on the go, these fresh fruit containers are a real life-saver.
Grab a spoon and a yogurt and you'll stop your hunger in it's tracks. Check the labels for sugar though, yogurt, especially Greek yogurt can be a bit sneaky with additives. But once you find a low sugar, high protein Greek yogurt you like, you know you've always got a snack to grab when you're at the store or in a hurry.
Cottage Cheese
Just like yogurt, cottage cheese now comes in easy, handy little individual servings. You can buy a little cup (some brands also have fruit-mix-ins) and grab a spoon and go. Cottage cheese is one of those snacks that leaves you full when you know you won't have a meal for a while. It also keeps your blood sugar a bit more stable so you aren't going to crash in the middle of your busy day.
Trail Mix
Nuts, raisins, granola. Who doesn't love it? It's another great option for an on the go snack when you're running around all day. But be careful to check the labels on these. Some trail mixes are known for being high in carbs and sugar, which will leave you feeling sluggish after your blood sugar plummets. You're going to want to look for a high protein mix that has as little sugar as possible. And because it contains delicious nuts you're also benefiting from those good fats.
These aren't you're only choices for a healthy snack at the store, but they are a great way to get you started in the right direction when you're on the go and need an energy boost. The best thing you can do is either purchase something that doesn't have a label (fresh produce) or check the labels for sugar content. A snack that is high in protein and fiber will keep you full longer and won't wreck your healthy eating habits.

The most recent winner of the X Factor UK returns today with the video for his debut single "Second Hand Heart". The winner debuts with a great pop-rock and radio-ready track and features the vocals of the original reality-competition queen, Kelly Clarkson.

With the demise of Cocom, the Cold War agency that restricted sales of strategic items to the Communist Bloc, the West has created a control vacuum that insider wags call "Nocom" -- meaning that no organization has been set up to replace the 45-year-old Coordinating Committee for Multilateral Export Controls. We would vastly prefer a "Socom" solution in which something is alive and functioning to stop the flow of military-potential technology and equipment to rogue regimes such as North Korea, Iraq, Iran, Libya and Cuba.
Instead, each supplier nation will rely on its own judgment, a formula that could quickly fall victim to fierce competition among Western corporations and their governmental sponsors. For the cause of non-proliferation of weapons of mass destruction, Cocom's passing may be a serious setback indeed. The Clinton administration should not have allowed its burial without agreement on a multilateral agency to replace it. But having done so, Washington should work hard to fill the vacuum.
U.S. telecommunications and computer companies are overjoyed at the lifting of many restrictions on sales of their products to the vast Russian and Chinese markets. And understandably so. For too long they have watched rival firms in Europe and Japan grab competitive advantage because their governments allowed sales of items still on the American no-no list. But the sensible decision to allow American corporations to play on a level playing field does not excuse the failure to arrange a successor organization for Cocom.

The fun, rowdy-in-a-good-way group of guys seated in front of us didn't start out that way. At the beginning of the game they weren't even sitting there. But as the game played on, they migrated from wherever their seats were in the stadium and ended up about four rows in front of where we sat. Then, as the group made more and more trips to get beer, they got louder and louder.
They all stood during the sixth inning and got the bleachers riled up for a wave. Maybe it was all of them being decked out in various styles of Red Sox gear, or the obvious Boston accent they had as they yelled, "Hey! Come on heah! Let's get da wave goin'! Ev'ybody UP!" (Is that how you spell a Boston accent?!? Please forgive me if I got it wrong.)
I'm not sure why (maybe we all made enough trips to get beer as well), but everyone listened and we all stood up. We threw our hands in the air like we didn't care and watched as the wave took off. It circled around and headed for the area where it had died during previous attempts. It didn't stop there; it kept going. And we all cheered even louder as it circled the entire stadium and came back around to us.
We stood up again and screamed as it circled around.
It came back again.
And again.
And again.
It circled Fenway four times before something amazing happened in the game that caused all of us to abandon our efforts and scream collectively at the home run hit into the stands.
Another man tried getting a wave started earlier in the game, but it never made it very far. He tried and tried, but traveling clockwise from where we were seated in the bleacher-seats, the wave never made it past home plate.
What did the group of rowdy guys have that the one individual man didn't have? I'm not sure. There were more of them, they had "dressed for success", and their timing was better. Their energy was palatable and they were bent on having a good time. The other gentleman, while his intentions were good and the same, he didn't have the fun-boistrous-Boston-accent piece. The guys didn't seem as desperate for the wave to work, even though they wanted it just as much.
When the wave ended and we were all basking in the glory of our efforts, the guys kept high-fiving each other, "We did dat!" "We'ah aaaawwwwsome!" they congratulated each other. And we all felt proud knowing we had done it, too. We were part of the "group".
Isn't that what we're all doing here? As humans, we want to connect, to be a part of something bigger than ourselves -groups, clubs, families, tribes. And then in these groups sometimes we try to make waves, to make a difference, to make ourselves heard.
While we were sitting at the game, I opened my email between innings (Because there wasn't enough connection going on for me with all those thousands of people cheering toward a common goal.). Anyway, I was expecting an email from a woman I met with before we left for Boston. She and I connected because I'm a member of a club no one wants to join: Survivors of Suicide. (If you don't know this about me, you can read about it here and here.) As a member of this club, I feel a strong need to help others in their grieving process.
As I sat in Fenway Park, with my family, as a new member of a group called Red Sox Fans, I got the news from this email that I'm going to start telling my story publicly, in person, for the first time to groups of people in my community. I'm sharing my story so it can help others and make a difference.
I'm going to be making waves myself. Not by standing up in a stadium, but in small rooms, with grieving people facing a loss that can be confusing, horrible, and devastating. I'll be working with a program in my area called Transitions Mental Health Association to share my story and I'm proud to help in any way I can.
And I'm hoping the wave I start will carry on far beyond home plate and travel around and around as long as it needs to travel for others to heal, feel better about themselves, and be at peace with being members of a group no one wants to be a part of. I want to create the same effect the group of guys sitting in front of us created. (Maybe I'll wear my new, favorite Red Sox sweatshirt to my first presentation. I want to "dress for success", too.)
How are you making waves? Do they catch on? Do they travel around, come back to you again, gain momentum, and become their own force? I sure hope so. And I hope they will for me, too.
(And don't you worry -I may be the latest, greatest Red Sox fan, but I'll always be a Giants fan, too. Because I believe love multiplies, it doesn't divide. But that's a story for another blog post.)

Here are a few more comics with Richard Corben art. "Tales from the Plague" (1986) is a graphic novel published by Bill Leach Collectibles. It's written by Dennis Cunningham eith nice b&w Corben artwork. "Son of Mutant World" (1990) and "Children of Fire" (1987) are both from Corben's own Fantagor Press. "Son of Mutant World" has stories written by Jan Strand and William Nolan (originally published in Pacific's "Alien Worlds") with color Corben art, as well as a story written and illustrated by Bruce Jones. Both "Son of Mutant World" and "Children of Fire" are more science-fiction than horror, though they feature an impressive array of bears, sharks, drooling monsters and skeleton people. Good stuff, all...
The cold I've been fighting is finally catching up to me, so writing has been slow, but stay tuned for some selections of Eerie Publications, plus all those film reviews I need to get caught up on. Promise.

NAME: Thea Fitz-James // ROLE: Creator, writer & performer // SHOW: DRUNK GIRL
What item can't you live without in the rehearsal room?
Um… my body? Honestly, as an indie theatre maker with very little money, I'm used to jumping around from space to space and rehearsing out of living rooms and hallways. So all I need is my vagina. It's weird to say that maybe, but it's very essential to my process.
What's the best show you've ever seen?
LEAR, by Philip McKee, really changed my perspective on what you could do in theatre. It was a bare-boned imagining of King Lear, with only the daughters and a female Lear (played by Canadian legend Clare Coulter). He distilled the essence of this show into several powerful images and moments. He moved the audience out of their seats for the storm—kicking us out of our own castle. We watched sisters compete and daughters fight for love. It was stunning. I loved it so much I wrote about it in a major theatre magazine, and then dated the director for 6 months. (ugh)
What was the first ever performance you were in?
I played the chorus in Wizard of Oz. I was too tall to be a munchkin (even though all my friends were munchkins!) so instead I was a winkie (guard) and an emerald city person. Lots of green eyeshadow.
Why do you do what you do?
I suppose I could do anything so long as it's about connecting with people. Before this, I was a journalist. After this, I imagine I'll be a teacher or producer. I joke with my films/ VR friends that theatre is the REAL augmented reality. What an opportunity it is, to get a bunch of people in a room and talk to them, connect with them, move them. There's nothing else quite like it.
What excites you about Perth?
I adventured to Perth when I fell in love with an Aussie on tour. I took a chance, after only knowing him for two weeks, and booked a flight to the other side of the world. Now I'm back a year later. So Perth holds a lot of memories of adventure and leaps of faith. It excites me to be back and remember and readjust.
What's your favourite thing about summer?
It's winter in Canada. So I guess I like that summer seems to last year-round in the life of a fringe performer.
What show/s are you looking forward to during Summer Nights or Fringe World?
So many. Here are only a few:
Zach Zucker's A Human Person—I've never met a more talented clown, and I can't wait to see this show.
Them Good Ol' Boys—Just some talented Canadians (and a few Aussies in there too!). I'm normally not into biopic-esq theatre, but I really love the work that these creators put out.
Wil Greenways' show A Night to Dismember. Saw his show last year and was really moved.
Love thy Monster: Interested in the concept of toxic masculinity, and what to do with it. Also Joe Sellman-Leava's work is very powerful.
Butt Kapinsky: I missed this when it did the Canadian fringes. Can't wait to finally see this incredible show.

I'm Ready to Get Started!
Great! We're excited to begin working on your custom wall mural! The process begins with the 3 Easy Steps below. Each of the steps is outlined in more detail at the bottom of this page.
1 The first step is to contact us. We'll listen to your ideas, discuss your project and get the ball rolling. Many murals require a site visit before moving on to Step 2.
2 After we've seen your space and discussed your vision for the mural, we send you a Mural Proposal for you to sign and return to us along with a 25% sketch deposit. We then begin designing your mural!
3 After a sketch is approved, we coordinate with your calendar and schedule the work. Then the painting begins!
The Process in Detail
1. Contact and Information Gathering
Let us know you are interested in a painted wall mural by filling out our contact form, sending us an email, or calling us at 203-364-5536. We'll begin by learning about your space, your vision and ideas, and gathering technical details such as location, size of the wall or room, surface preparation and time frame. When possible, we'll also set up a site visit to discuss the project in person and take precise measurements. Your custom mural quote will be based on a number of factors. Please see our pricing guide for more details.
2. Moving Ahead
We will email you a formal proposal within two business days of the consultation. The formal proposal will include our contract. If you decide to hire us, simply return the signed contract along with the 25% Sketch Deposit. This allows us to begin designing your mural and reserves your project on our painting schedule. The Sketch Deposit is non-refundable and includes up to two feedback revisions (3 sketches total).
3. Scheduling the Mural
Once the final sketch is approved, we will coordinate the painting details with you, including start date, approximate time to completion, and hours of painting per day. For example, some clients like us to arrive early and finish up for the day before their kids get home from school. Others prefer a later start time. Travel distance is also a factor. We will arrange all these details ahead of time so that everyone knows what to expect. Two weeks before the painting begins, we'll confirm that everything is still on target and that the wall preparation (if applicable) is complete. The second 25% Work Deposit is due at this time.
4. Completion
We'll let you know the day before that the next day will be our final day of painting. If everything has gone to plan, this should be on or before the estimated time of completion. The balance of the mural is due at the end of the final day of painting.

Hi - I'm Chippy!
The next President of Imperial College Union is Robert Tomkies.
Rob will take up his role on 1 August 2018. Read his manifesto here.
As Union President, I'm the leader of the Imperial student body, figurehead of Imperial College Union, and the student voice at College's highest levels of decision making. I lead a team of five Officer Trustees and through them, the 3,000+ volunteers that make up Imperial College Union. It's a massive job but a rewarding one - how many graduate schemes would put you in charge of a social enterprise with a £9m turnover within ten years, let alone on your first day?
I'm responsible for ensuring that the Officer Trustees, Union staff and our volunteers are working towards Our Strategy 2017-20 - especially our commitments to building stronger student communities (such as Constituent Unions and campuses other than South Kensington) and changing the culture of College to improve student wellbeing.
I work for you and I want every Imperial student to know about my role and the work I do - so that I can be as effective as possible.
Find out more about:
Who's the next President of Imperial College Union? That's up to you.
Cast your vote now | Read the candidates' manifestos
My goals
Every Officer Trustee sets several goals at the start of each year - goals they will work towards individually, and ones they will work on achieving collectively. Here are my priorities for this year. You can get full details of the goal - and the progress I have made towards it so far - on my Officer Trustee Goals page.
A more democratic Union
Developing our key volunteers
Wellbeing strategy
Understanding our membership
Liberation review
You can also read my original Manifesto for when I ran for Union President here.
Our Strategy and Values
Everything Imperial College Union does is guided by Our Strategy 2017-20, launched in January 2017 after extensive consultation with our members and volunteers. Our Strategy sets out how we will transform the Imperial experience. For me as Union President, Our Strategy gives me high-level aims such as changing the culture of College, maintaining our position as Britain's strongest student democracy, and preserving the best of the traditions that make Imperial what it is.
I do my best to keep the Union's values in mind when I'm working - especially Democracy, as I think that our members should be at the heart of everything we do.
Want my job?
Great! I think being Union President is one of the best experiences I've ever had and I'm always happy to talk to anyone who's considering putting themselves forward. You can contact me via email and Twitter, and there will be opportunities to meet the Officer Trustees and learn more about what we do throughout the Leadership Elections 2018.
Get in touch
Do you want to know more about Imperial College Union, the work I do to lobby College and speak up for students, or get involved in my work to support our volunteers and student groups? Then come find me!
If you're a student at Imperial College London, I'm here to work for you. You can get in touch with me in lots of ways - in person at an Imperial College Union event such as Union Council, by email, by Twitter or through the Imperial College Union Facebook page. You can also come to the Union Reception on the second floor of the Union Building, although I can't guarantee that I will be available at short notice - but Reception will do their best to arrange a time to see me.
The next President of Imperial College Union is Robert Tomkies.
Rob will take up his role on 1 August 2018. Read his manifesto here.

The U.S. Department of Justice announced Thursday that 42-year-old Michael Wayne Radetski was sentenced on Wednesday to 120 months in prison followed by four years of supervised release.
Onslow County sheriff's deputies said students from Dixon High School bought pot from Radetski at his home, and that he threatened to plant explosives in the car of any student who snitched on him.
Prosecutors also said Radetski paid a 19-year-old to buy him an AR-15, a purchase he hid by having his wife sign a notarized letter saying it was hers because he was a convicted felon and couldn't have a firearm.

Those of you in the UDS-R (Raring Ringtail) group photo must have been quite disappointed this time around!

Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 185677
md multipath errors and corrupt fs
Last modified: 2010-01-11 22:10:31 EST
Description of problem:
Original report is bz 172944 comment 9.
GFS nodes are doing i/o over several paths.
One or more paths are disabled.
Many scsi errors (meaning/severity unknown).
Many md multipath errors (meaning/severity unknown).
Node(s) rebooted before md errors are resolved.
Cluster brought back up.
Corruption is found in one of three gfs fs's.
I was given /var/log/messages from two different nodes
(saqone01, sqaone02) that showed the final two steps in
that sequence. Oddly, only the log from sqaone01 showed
the previous steps, it appears sqaone02 was not being
used during the previous steps? Were there other nodes
in the cluster during the previous steps when the failures
actually occured?
There are quite a lot of md error messages that I have
no experience interpretting. That's a big area of uncertainty.
Some of the errors appear to relate to updating md's superblock;
superblock updates are an area where md is especially vulnerable
to problems in a cluster since the different nodes' updates clobber
each other. It's unknown what the actual effects of this would be,
directly within md or worse indirectly to the data/storage.
Apart from learning what the md errors mean, my suggestion would be
to break this problem down into smaller pieces or swap in different
pieces to narrow down which subsystem is at fault. At this point
there's no indication that GFS is at fault, but the i/o layers
below the fs look questionable. Perhaps you could replace gfs
with ext3 or gfs+nolock, have a single machine using the fs and
try the same tests killing paths. Or, a test where you eliminate
the fs and have one or more nodes writing/reading patterns from
the device, verifying the data, and killing paths.

Signed Fine Art
My Flowers, Butterflies, and Birds are available as museum-quality fine art, exquisitely produced in the modern, bold style that I originally imagined for my artwork. I personally sign each piece and oversee its production.
First, a Giclée print is made on Ilford Gallery Glossy Smooth 290gsm rag paper. This is then mounted to beautiful 1/4" acrylic – clear on the face and black on the back – with all edges flush and polished and the corners subtly tapered. Finally, a natural pine wood inset frame and Z-mount are added to the back, ready for hanging.
Flowers are rectangular, and Butterflies and Birds are square (except for Peacock). Custom sizes are available, depending on the artwork. Some of my pieces are not available in every size.
Standard print sizes are as follows:
20in x 20in (51cm x 51cm) or 20in x 16in (51cm x 40,5 cm)
36in x 36in (91cm x 91cm) or 36in x 30in (91cm x 76cm)
48in x 48in (122cm x 122cm) or 48in x 40in (122cm x 101,5cm)
Please contact me with any inquiries or to purchase a fine art piece.

Rodney Jenkins is a lifelong Morris resident, former Morris High School baseball player and a cancer survivor. Rodney Jenkins is a lifelong Morris resident, former Morris High School baseball player and a cancer survivor. For the last four years, he has coached the Rowdie Katz and other Morris Athletic Association teams. His family includes wife, Cindy, and his daughters Amanda, 12, and Jessica, 5. Rodney was diagnosed this summer with heart failure. The doctors at Northwestern Hospital recommended he receive a heart pump as a bridge to see him through to a heart transplant. Rodney underwent open heart surgery on June 30, 2010 to have a heart pump connected to his heart. The pump, called a Left Ventricular Assist Device, or LVAD, does the job normally performed by the left side of the heart. The cause of Rodney's heart failure is believed to be caused from a rare reaction to one of the chemotherapy drugs he received during his fight against non-Hodgkin Lymphoma in 2005.

Gov. Roy Cooper's proposed House Bill 2 repeal compromise Tuesday was the latest in a series of four bills introduced by Democrats in recent weeks.
All would repeal House Bill 2, the controversial LGBT law that threatens to cost North Carolina years of NCAA and other sports events. But three of the four proposals go beyond simply repealing HB2, with some adding provisions intended to attract Republican support.
So far, no Republican lawmakers have announced support for any of the proposals, so there's a good chance none of them will get a hearing at the legislature. But the bills show a Democratic Party that's united in opposition to HB2 yet divided on exactly how accomplish that goal.
Here's a look at the four HB2 repeal bills:
Senate Bill 25
Who's backing it: Sen. Jeff Jackson of Charlotte with six co-sponsors: Sen. Angela Bryant of Rocky Mount, Sen. Floyd McKissick of Durham, Sen. Valerie Foushee of Hillsborough, Sen. Paul Lowe of Winston-Salem, Sen. Gladys Robinson of Greensboro and Sen. Joyce Waddell of Mecklenburg County
What it does: Repeals HB2 and restores local nondiscrimination ordinances that were struck down by HB2
House Bill 82
Who's backing it: The LGBT advocacy groups Human Rights Campaign and Equality North Carolina held a news conference last week to introduce the bill. The primary sponsors are Rep. Pricey Harrison of Greensboro, Rep. Susan Fisher of Asheville, Rep. Deb Butler of Wilmington and Rep. John Autry of Charlotte. As of Tuesday, 21 additional House Democrats had signed the bill as co-sponsors. And on Tuesday, an identical companion bill was filed in the Senate by Sens. Jay Chaudhuri of Raleigh, Mike Woodard of Durham and Terry Van Duyn of Asheville.
What it does: In addition to repealing HB2, it would create a broad statewide nondiscrimination law that would include sexual orientation, gender identity, military veteran status and other categories. It would ban discrimination in housing, employment and public accommodations – including bathroom access for transgender people. The bill says "a place of public accommodation shall provide access to (bathroom) facilities based on a person's gender identity."
That provision is similar to the Charlotte nondiscrimination ordinance that led to HB2 amid Republicans' fears that sexual predators might use the provision to access the opposite gender's bathroom facilities.
House Bill 78
Who's backing it: Rep. Cecil Brockman of High Point, with Rep. Larry Bell of Clinton and Rep. Yvonne Holley of Raleigh signing on as co-sponsors.
What it does: This bill also features a statewide nondiscrimination law identical to HB82, but it also adds tougher penalties for crimes committed in bathrooms – something Brockman says could help address Republicans' safety fears. His bill includes longer minimum prison sentences for people who commit rape or other sex crimes while in a changing facility designated for the opposite sex.
House Bill 107
Who's backing it: Cooper, House Democratic Leader Darren Jackson of Knightdale and Senate Minority Leader Dan Blue of Raleigh
What it does: In addition to repealing HB2, Cooper wants to require local governments to give the legislature 30 days' notice before passing nondiscrimination ordinances. His proposal also includes tougher penalties for crimes committed in bathroom, including longer prison sentences.

Jon McAllister talks you through a game-changing adaption of the pop-up rig.
When it comes to the multi-rig, the general misconception is that I invented it. That's not actually the case, in fact, I was shown the basics of the rig a long time ago by Dave Ball.
It was back in 1990 that I started using the multi-rig. It was on Sutton during a cold winter session, and over the following years I tweaked and adapted it to evoke better hook-holds. It caught loads of good fish right from the off and because it was me that first put this rig into print, everyone nicknamed it the Jonny Mac rig – although I'm led to believe that Mike Kavanagh initially came up with the concept.
The rig has been used by numerous anglers since then, caught scores of big carp across the country, and has been well documented. I'd never put my name to the rig but I do use it for nearly all of my fishing.
The basic mechanics have stayed the same since day one but I've changed materials and hooks over the years as newer, more effective ones have been created.
The main adaptation in the 26 years I've been using the rig is probably a small length of silicone tubing that sits over the hook eye, kicking the material away from the hook eye in the perfect aggressive angle.
Nearly all of the big, famous fish I've caught have been on the multi-rig. I've used it with bottom baits, wafters, double baits, three mini tigers – you name it, I've caught on it using the multi-rig.
Many years ago people would use a Super Specialist hook and bend the shank to create a bent hook. At the time, people using it in this way were catching quite a lot of carp, but the damage caused to the fishes' mouths saw many venues ban it. The modern addition of silicone tubing does the very same thing as bending the hook, and with the pop-up directly above the hook, obscuring it from view, the addition causes the hook to turn perfectly in the carp's mouth. With captures like Heather from The Car Park, The Black Mirror from The Mere, The Mother from Elstow and Richmond Park's Royal Forty, among countless others to its credit, I have ultimate faith in this rig.
Jonny Mac with Scaly at 40lb plus from the rock-hard Vinnetrow – proof that the multi-rig works on even the cleverest of carp.
01 – This is a pop-up rig, so it goes without saying that your hook bait should be buoyant enough to hold up your hook.
02 – Use a 3mm rig ring positioned on the loop at the back of the hook to help hold your pop-up in place.
03 – A 10mm section of silicone tubing pushes over the loop and over the eye of the hook. This should be manipulated to angle the hook more aggressively – you don't want it sitting straight up.
04 – You can use any size and shape of hook you like with the multi-rig, bearing in mind the size and feeding habits of your target fish.
05 – To counteract the buoyancy of the pop-up and anchor things down, use a split shot positioned at the back of the stripped section of the coated braid. A No1 or BB will do the trick.
06 – You're looking for a tied rig of nine inches, so go for a length of coated braid 12 inches long to start with. Strip back a section of the coating below the loop knot to give articulation to the hook and bait.
07 – The length of your loop at the top of the multi-rig will determine how high your hook bait sits off the deck. Using a loop also means you can change your hook without tying a new rig.
08 – The multi-rig employs a loop to carry the hook. This is created using a figure-of-eight knot and needs to be long enough to go though the inside of the hook eye and then over the hook again to creat a D to hold the rig ring at the back of the hook.
09 – Finish you rig off to a swivel with a loop-to-loop fixing with a figure-of-eight knot to create the loop – as with the top of the rig.
"I have ultimate faith in this rig " – Jon McAllister
Alfie Russell
I have great confidence in the multi rig. With a mind-boggling choice of rigs out there, there are only a handful I really ever use. I've got particular confidence in the multi because I've studied it and tweaked it to my specification and style of fishing. With stalking being commonplace in my fishing, I get to watch how the rig acts when picked up by fish. It's so efficient that I have no problem taking a step further and casting it out into the lake. The hooked-to-landed ratio is amazing, so it has a firm place in my rig armoury.
Dan Taylor
Unless I can see where I'm placing my hook bait, I'll always use a pop-up presentation. This is my rig of choice and I have 100 per cent faith in it. I've always said that a pop-up rig will single out the bigger fish and my results prove that. Although I don't catch hundreds of carp in a year, I catch the ones that I want the most. Last year four 50lb UK carp fell to the multi-rig. It's a huge part of my fishing, and you can see why.

James Dyson Engineers and Excavates a Full Life
The English inventor talks to The Wall Street Journal Europe about how he starts his weekend.
He may have dreamed up the cyclonic vacuum cleaner and the bladeless fan, but Sir James Dyson isn't resting on his laurels. The industrial designer still spends most of his time inventing and repairing things. That now includes advising on U.K. business policy; Sir James is part of British Prime Minister David Cameron's recently formed Business Advisory Council.
With a crew of grandchildren, a busy social life, sports and projects ranging from excavations to wine making, his weekends are no less hectic—or inventive.
How does your weekend start?
My weekend tends to start quite late because I tend to work quite late. I don't know what it is about Fridays but you always end up with a group of engineers doing the things you should have done during the week, like designing things and solving problems. Some might say "Why not come on Monday morning and start fresh and solve them?" but there is something about the tensions and interactions of the week that make Friday evenings a very good moment to make decisions about solutions.
Dinner parties
Very often, I go out with my wife in the evenings on Friday. I live and work on the edge of the Cotswolds, which is very nice. We visit friends or have people for dinner. I make wines, so I am quite keen on it. I make Claret wine in Provence. It's very good because you don't have to add sugar. [I take the wine to parties] and impose it on my friends. They seem to drink it quite quickly.
Saturday starts with a bang
The next morning, I play tennis for two hours with a group of friends. So, it starts with a bang. We usually play at my house and sometimes at the others' houses. It is usually four. We play in pairs and sometimes we play American doubles if someone is away. This has been going on for years with the same group of people. This goes on until midday and then there is an obligatory glass of beer (I prefer Asahi beer), which does away with all the calories we got rid of playing tennis.
Taking things to bits
On Saturdays, we will probably have a light lunch and, if we have the grandchildren staying—which we quite often do—we then do all sorts of things with [them] which vary from drawing to designing things to taking things to bits and repairing them. Children like doing that. In fact, my wife is an artist and their parents are designers. I guess it is in the genes. I've got two little Bugatti cars. It sounds very expensive, but they are not— there is a rather wonderful pair of sculptors who rebuild Bugatti cars for children...These ones are made from the actual castings of the original ones and they look exactly like the Type 35, the most beautiful one. My grandchildren will drive around in those and I am the mechanic. They love that. This is the first time they really learn to concentrate rather than just look around when they are going along and get the feel of the car. I think it's quite a good thing for them to do at quite a young age.
What else do you do?
I might do a bit of excavating. I drive excavators, because I really enjoy that. You have to really concentrate on what you are doing, but I like it because it's a sort of hard-core gardening. I used to do quite a lot of [intense] gardening when I was younger, but [excavating] is much more fun. [The purpose is] to dig a trench or do a bit of landscaping, cleaning an area up, often damaged. I just enjoy it. It exhausts me. I like it because it is an anthropomorphic extension of your body. So, when you are scrapping the ground or digging a hole using the bucket, it is like using your arm. You become the digger. Mine are JCBs and I've had them for more than 10 years. You can make big difference—either a bad or a good difference. It satisfies my impatience.
A walk in the woods
We go for walks as well. There are lovely walks where we live and I am very keen on walking, particularly where it's hilly, which it is. Walking is a relaxing thing. I love trees, animals and sheep. It's a way to think and talk to my wife... And quite often we walk with a group of friends, so you're not even aware that you're walking. You're just enjoying conversation and thinking and arguing, but at the same time, being in touch with wonderful trees and views. At the moment is fantastic because of the autumn leaves. [Walking] is a very important thing for me—exercise the body and the mind.
Living on the edge
Whenever I can, I do sailing. I like sailing because there is a lot of gear involved. Particularly the modern gear is very interesting— the way you bend the mast and set the sail. I like the mechanical side of it. I've been doing it since I was about 6, with my father; so, I have done it on and off all my life. When you're actually sailing, it's really important to race because you both have the same wind and the same conditions, and then you have to make the best use of them and it's like living on the edge, which I like doing anyway. I also go running. I run about five miles and have done that all my life, so that's important to me.

[IMGCAP(1)]Finding qualified talent today is tough, especially if you are in a service-based business. Most prospective hires today are passive candidates, which means they are open to a job change, but aren't actively looking for a particular position.
Unfortunately, many firms today still rely on recruiters or job postings, and are struggling to fill these roles because they don't have enough candidates.
Posting a job doesn't equal traffic. Unless you drive people to that job posting, they won't be aware of it and they certainly won't have the chance to apply. So how do you get more eyes on your job openings? Here are four tips to increase you their reach.
1. Promote it on social media
Whether it's for personal or professional use, people (business professionals included) spend a lot of time on social media today. Yet very few firms we speak with are proactively promoting their open job positions online. Firms should be doing this, through individual LinkedIn profiles, the LinkedIn company page, Facebook individual and business pages, and Twitter.
Once isn't enough, either. Make sure you have regular messages through these channels, spaced out at regular intervals and different times of the day. Consider weekends and evenings rather than during the business day, so you are likely to get higher engagement.
2. Use social advertising
Social advertising, unlike the more traditional print advertising, is cost-effective and highly targeted. Both LinkedIn and Facebook provide options for advertising based on geographic area and specific key words. You could spend half the cost of print advertising with significantly higher ROI.
3. Optimize with key words
Almost everyone I know today spends the majority of their online job search finding and researching open positions. Optimizing your website's jobs or career landing page can help increase visibility.
4. Ask your network to share
Logical, I know, but often not done. A simple email, through your work account or LinkedIn network can be an easy way to spread the word about open positions. You never know who might know your next employee.

In contact center parlance, Average Handle Time (AHT) refers to the average length of time a contact center agent (customer service representative) spends on a call with a customer. Most contact centers use AHT as a metric to measure operational efficiency and consider high AHT a serious problem. Since AHT is an average, contact centers usually look at the AHT metric over a week or a month.
WorkFlex integrates with ACD systems and can be configured to alert agents when their Handle Time on any given call reaches a set threshold. If a call has taken 240 seconds, for example, an alert can be sent to an agent's desktop with a message such as "Your Handle Time is at 240." The notification reminds agents to strive for faster resolution time and consequently bring down their AHT.
