ioFABRIC Partners with RamgeSoft to Offer Solutions for Storage Virtualization and Hybrid Cloud Environments
TORONTO, March 13, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- ioFABRIC Inc. today announced that it is working with value-added distributor Ramge Software Distribution GmbH & Co. KG to establish a strong partner network throughout Germany, Austria, and Switzerland in order to provide solutions that support the rapidly developing market for storage virtualization and hybrid cloud storage environments.
With 35 advanced software solutions in its portfolio, RamgeSoft offers a broad range of products, support and consulting services to more than 12,000 customers throughout the EMEA region. RamgeSoft will distribute ioFABRIC Vicinity to its established network of system integrators and enterprise storage resellers to better solve customers' data management and data protection issues while reducing complexity and cost. Members of RamgeSoft's network will also have the opportunity to join the ioFABRIC Connect Partner Program, which provides "out of the box" marketing campaigns, and technical and sales training that deliver fast returns on investment.
"Enterprise storage customers looking to leverage the benefits of a hybrid cloud environment to better manage their storage, but they need a solution that provides the highest levels of security and protection of their business-critical information from loss and downtime to ensure business continuity," said Christian Meier, Sales Director at RamgeSoft. "By adding ioFABRIC Vicinity to their portfolio, our channel partners will be better able to offer their customers a cost-optimized solution that minimizes the complexity of data storage. We see Vicinity as an ideal way to become a strategic partner for your customers by helping them solve their current and future storage demands."
Vicinity unlocks the true value of a multi-site multi-cloud data fabric by monitoring and automatically moving data to where it needs to be: low latency, active data remains on-premises while stale data is automatically migrated to the cloud. Vicinity profiles performance, capacity, and data protection capabilities of all storage elements, and delivers the service-level requirements that each application workload demands.
"It's no surprise to see continued strong interest around the world for a data protection and data management solution that can help overcome the complexity needed to manage increasing amounts of data across multiple silos and sites while facing the risk of downtime and loss from issues like ransomware," said Nigel Miller, VP Business Development at ioFABRIC. "That's why it is critical that we partner with leading distributors like RamgeSoft to ensure that ioFABRIC Vicinity is available throughout every region in the world. We look forward to working closely with RamgeSoft to ensure that companies throughout the European Union have access to our award-winning data fabric."

Which quilt should I buy, and other FAQs
Here are some things to consider when choosing the right bedding so you can have the best night's sleep:
- How much do you feel the cold?
Are you a real cold frog or are you always throwing the doona off?
- How warm do you keep your bedroom / house?
If you leave the central heating on overnight and don't let your bedroom ever get cold, you may not need an extra warm quilt.
- Where do you live?
Do you live in a frosty area, a milder climate, or by the sea? If you're a cold frog and live in a frosty area and have a cold bedroom you might go for a 3 or 4 blanket warmth quilt. However, if the overnight minimum rarely drops below 8 or 10 degrees and you don't feel the cold especially bad, then maybe you only need a 2 blanket warmth quilt.
- What is our most common quilt order?
It's the 2 blanket warmth.
- What size quilt should I buy?
Would you like some extra overhang and snuggleabilty? Lots of people buy a King size quilt for a Queen size bed these days so they have a bit more doona to play with.
- If you share your bed, would you benefit from having a quilt made with different warmth's?
Eg. 2 blankets warm on one side and 3 or 4 on the other. This is a great option to keep both partners happy and is priced to the heaviest side (i.e. a 2/4 combo is the price of a 4 blanket warmth quilt). You can choose any combination you like.
- Does customising mean I could have my quilt made warmer over my feet?
Certainly, we can add some extra wool over the bottom section of your quilt to keep your tootsies warm! We're here to please you. Please give us a call if you would like to discuss your needs. We're only too happy to help.
- I'm a solo sleeper; would a duo quilt suit me?
Yes, lots of people who have the bed to themselves chose a quilt that is thicker one side than the other and flip it over according to the season i.e. 1 blanket warmth for summer and 3 blanket warmth for winter.
- If I get a duo, will I be able to tell the difference which side is which?
Yes, we tag each side so you don't mix them up.
- Will a duo look odd on the bed with one side thicker than the other?
Surprisingly, it's not that obvious. Unless you have a 1/4 or perhaps a Summer/3 once you have the cover on, the difference isn't a problem.
- Do your quilts sit flat on the bed?
Yes they do. They're not as compressed as some of the other commercially available products, so they are a little thicker, but they give a lovely neat yet plump appearance.
- What is the difference between Dry-clean only or washable wool bedding?
Our Dry-Clean Only chemical free wool has been washed and carded before it is made up into your bedding product and may not be washed. Our washable wool goes through an extra process to pre-shrink it. It's a hot wash with a small amount of chlorine and peroxide. This doesn't leave a chemical smell or affect the longevity of the product.
- Does washable mean I can wash my bedding in my home washing machine?
Yes you can wash your bedding with an approved wool washing detergent on the wool wash cycle in your washing machine. However, it's worth noting that most of our quilts (probably any bigger than a single) would be too big for a home washing machine but fit easily in the type of large front loaders common at Laundromats. The quilts need to be dried as flat as possible; we suggest laying over the top of your clothesline.
- Can I tumble dry the washable wool?
Definitely not.
- Can I wash my washable wool bedding product in the bath?
Well we wouldn't advise it. Once your product becomes immersed in the water it would be incredibly heavy and difficult to manage.
- Can I air my quilt or underblanket out on the line in the sun every so often?
Yes, we recommend regular airing to keep your quilt fresh. The sun is your friend but do be careful not to leave it out all day long in the summer time, that's not good for anything! And remember, dust mites don't live in wool so that's another bonus!
- Are the quilts heavy?
No they're not. Whilst they are a little heavier than a feather doona, they are still much lighter than blankets even though they give the same warmth.
- Is there a smell to any of your products?
There can be a slight "woolly" smell that fades fairly quickly once your bedding is opened out, but there is no chemical smell that is sometimes found in other products on the market.
- We have a caravan with a mattress that has rounded corners; could we have an underblanket made to fit it exactly?
Sure, we are happy to make underblankets with rounded corners to your measurements.
- Can the wool move around?
No, the wool is layered and stitched securely in a time honoured method that has stood the test for 35 years.
- Can I return my order?
Unfortunately due to health and hygiene reasons we are unable to return or exchange products unless unwrapped and unused or for manufacturing faults. Please choose carefully.

Aside from an impressive 5-2 victory over the Washington Capitals tonight at the USAir Arena, there were two other reasons for the Devils to gloat. They finally scored a power-play goal and they got two goals from their defensemen.
John MacLean scored the power-play goal on the first of four manpower advantages for the Devils, who came up empty in eight such situations Wednesday night during a 3-2 loss at Montreal. "It'll give us some confidence because we were struggling," MacLean said.
HB>Stevens Connects
Scott Stevens, the captain of the Devils, contributed two goals, the 19th and 20th of the season by New Jersey defensemen, whose priority has been their defensive duties in Coach Jacques Lemaire's system.
The Devils played well defensively, especially their rookie goaltender, Martin Brodeur, who faced 32 shots and allowed both goals while the Devils were two men short.
"You can't ask for more," Lemaire said of the Brodeur, who helped the Devils (25-14-4) end their losing streak at two.Continue reading the main story
"We kind of decided two in a row is the most we're going to lose," said Bill Guerin, the powerful right wing who scored a marvelous goal, his ninth of the season. "We kind of decided to be one of the top teams in the league. We're not going to let teams behind us catch up."
Stevens opened the scoring with 4 minutes 33 seconds remaining in the first period when his blistering shot from the top of the left circle beat goaltender Rick Tabarraci.
The goal was Stevens's eighth of the season but only his second in the last 25 games. He scored his ninth into an empty net with 69 seconds left in the game.
As far as Lemaire was concerned, scoring a power-play goal was critical for his team. In their 14 losses, the Devils have capitalized only five times in 55 attempts with the man advantage. They have have scored fewest power-play goals in the National Hockey League with 37.
They got their 37th on MacLean's hard shot from the top of the left circle on a rebound after a shot by Bruce Driver to give the Devils a 2-0 lead 4:38 into the middle period.
Stephane Richer extended the lead to three goals with his 17th of the season during a scramble in front of Tabarraci at 6:07 of the period.
CHRIS TERRERI will most likely start in goal for the Devils when they play host to the Los Angeles Kings Saturday night. DAVID EMMA and BEN HANKINSON returned to the New Jersey line-up, taking the places of BERNIE NICHOLLS and COREY MILLEN among the forwards. . . . SLAVA FETISOV and JASON SMITH returned on defense in place of TOMMY ALBELIN and JAROSLAV MODRYContinue reading the main story

Marsh puts up hand for Test spot
CRICKET: Mitch Marsh has thrust himself back to the head of the queue for the vacant No.6 spot in the Australian Test line-up.
The Aussies will begin their four-match series against India in Pune on Thursday with selectors to weigh up whether to pick Marsh or fellow all-rounder Glenn Maxwell.
As his older brother Shaun tries to edge Usman Khawaja for the No.3 slot, Mitch Marsh put his hand up for a recall with a commanding knock of 75 in the practice match against India A.
Marsh has played 19 Tests, with a batting average of just 23.
He says he benefited from time out of the game with a shoulder injury to work on his skills with the willow.
"I've certainly batted more than ever over the past few weeks, just trying to get better ... I've been working on some game plans," Marsh said, adding that tightening his defence, particularly against spin, was a priority ahead of this all-important tour against the world's No.1-ranked team.
"Probably the biggest thing for me has just been softening my hands, in my defence and also in my attack as well.
"The later you hit the ball, the easier it is to hit gaps especially in the subcontinent when it's turning."
March also opened the bowling for the tourists, sending down nine overs and returning figures of 0-26.
"I'm feeling really strong at the moment so hopefully the body can hold up," he said.

Peter Capaldi unsure if he'll return to Doctor Who
- Bang Showbiz
- 7 December 2016
Pete Capaldi hasn't decided if he'll be reprising his titular role in 'Doctor Who' for the next series
Peter Capaldi isn't sure if he will return to 'Doctor Who'.
The 58-year-old actor has portrayed the Time Lord in the BBC One sci-fi drama since 2013, and is leaving fan's guessing as to whether he will be back for series 11 as he is putting off deciding whether to continue portraying the iconic role for now.
Speaking to the Radio Times magazine, he said: "I've been asked to stay on and I haven't made my mind up about that yet, mainly because I don't want to have to make that decision. I'm trying to avoid it!
"'Doctor Who' does take a lot of time, but it's a wonderful use of it. It's special. I'm lucky enough to be in touch with other (previous actors who played the) Doctor, and we all agree how extraordinary it is to be in this position.
"To decide to leave is a tough decision for everybody. [It was] very tough for Steven, so I'm just putting it off for as long as possible."
Peter's delay in his decision comes comes after one of the show's writers Mark Gatiss said he's keen to see a lady take on the lead in the popular series in the near future and already has someone in mind for when Peter decides to leave it behind.
He'd like to see Michelle Gomez - who plays a villain called Missy, which is short for The Mistress, in the series - take on the role.
Speaking recently to BANG Showbiz, the 55-year-old screenwriter said: "Yes I really hope there's a female Doctor Who very soon. Whenever Peter [Capaldi] hangs up his solitary of driving the show - but I hope he's not [going to] for a very long time."
When pushed on whether there was a female replacement on the horizon, Mark laughed and teased: "Maybe ... I'm sure it will happen, it should happen and the master has been generated into a woman and it's wonderful.
"Michelle Gomez is just fantastic so you just want to find, and make sure it's the right person. She would have made a great Doctor...maybe she will."

Above: An image of an area ravaged by the Pakistan floods. Image courtesy of Oxfam.
The Pakistan government has said that it needs $459million dollars for urgent assistance. As of today - nearly 3 weeks since the deadly deluge of rain on the country - less than a third of this aid has been supplied. Relief has been supplied painfully slowly, and the floods are clearly being underestimated by the world's leading governing bodies. The European Community Humanitarian aid Office (ECHO), responsible for Europe's disaster aid, has donated a paltry €10million (£8.2million) to the cause. Not only does this add up to just 50c-71c per person (41p-58p), it also pales in comparison to the €930million (£762million) donated to causes in 2009.
There's a lot of numbers there, but what is clear is that not enough is being done to support these fellow human beings in this horrific natural disaster. It is human nature, however, to forget previous crises once they have fallen out of the media spotlight. For that reason, I decided to take a look at some of the newer statistics from the Haiti earthquake from 2010, to see what life is like for them after the initial rush of sympathy.
My findings astounded me, and triggered me to write this. I looked into how international governments were supporting what is the poorest country in Western civilisation. In total, $5.3billion USD was pledged to the Interim Haiti Recovery Commission - that's £3.4billion GBP. Of that, less than two percent has been delivered to the fund. In fact, only Brazil, Estonia, Australia, and Norway have given any money at all. The global powerhouse that is the United States of America, that pledged over $1billion, has not handed over a penny.
Now, I'm not going to claim that only four countries helped Haiti; many countries supplied food, soldiers, helicopters and the like. It is also likely that they donated the money through other means. To me, a country so devastated by a tragedy of this magnitude not receiving promised funds is a travesty of human nature.
It was at this point that the cynic came rushing out of me, perhaps coinciding with Tony Blair donating the proceeds from his book to the British Legion (something which, to me, is an easy way of getting out of saying sorry - but I digress). I asked myself: how much do we listen to what our government says, and how much of it is simply empty words? We are all far too quick to forget and our governments are all too keen to pick up on this and use it to their advantage.
The simplest way of getting aid to countries in need, such as Pakistan, is to do it yourself. Create a sponsored event, volunteer at places like a Red Cross charity shop, or even just do a good old fashioned round up of cash from colleagues, be you a student or an active worker. I can personally vouch for the effectiveness of this: I was part of a three-man team that helped to raise over £4,000 for the Haiti disaster.
This still leaves an underlying question. Why do we have to do this ourselves? With all that tax going to our government, why are they not giving the money they have supposedly set aside? For some, the reason might be something like the global economic crisis, or getting stuck in administration.
But for the cynic, the skeptic, the pessimist inside you, ask yourself: are we simply the victim of clever publicity stunts by the people that rule over us?

Dad and daughter artist duo take Bundy by storm
A DAD and daughter art duo have taken Bundaberg by storm with their lovely works, selling almost half of their 50 paintings by the second night of their joint exhibit.
Cavin Staff and Nicky Staff Beckenhauer are holding a four-day exhibition at the Generator, with tonight being the final evening to hop along and check it out.
Mr Staff, an orthopaedic surgeon at Bundaberg Hospital, has been painting for about 20 years and Ms Staff Beckenhauer, a physiotherapist, for about a year.
The pair love painting plein air and are often thrilled at how different their interpretations can be of the one scene.
"It's time spent with dad and learning from him and being outside and having someone to share that skill," Ms Staff Beckenhauer said.
Cavin's wife Meg, a nurse, takes care of mounting and framing the family's works.
"She gives us fish and chips while we're painting, it's nice," Ms Staff Beckenhauer said.
Mr Staff had a special installation system installed for the exhibition and has donated it to the Generator so that exhibitions can now be held there.
Check out the exhibition upstairs at the Bundaberg Post Office from 6-9pm today and tomorrow.

Hello wondrous friend,
I've been thinking perhaps you have been wondering and umming and ahhing about setting intentions or goals for 2015 over the last couple of weeks.
I know that for some of you those intentions or goals may not be sitting peacefully. They might not come easily, felt clunky or like you have been going through the motions for the sake if it, because it's what everyone around you is doing, or because it's almost expected if you are someone who is 'in to' personal development.
I know because I've been feeling the same way. I've realised that that expectation puts so much pressure on us to have it sussed asap. To have the list or the word nailed.
So instead of worrying about it I'd consciously put my New Year deep thinking on hold. I did this because I knew I had some deep alone time coming up. I decided not to force it. I decided to let it settle.
Now, that alone time is almost here. I set off tomorrow for a week in a cosy Bothy in the woods, to think and create.
I have a deep sense of anticipation and peace just thinking about it.
So in sitting down and thinking about the experience I'd like to have in this precious time; out popped this.
I'm off to have an adventure
I'm off to find some peace
I'm off to see the me inside
the warmth and hide
I go to come out the other side
with a renewed sense of place
and have a heartfelt time
with gumption and with grace.
I'm off to make with heart and hands
I'm off to touch the earth
I'm off to find some clarity
and sit beside the hearth
I hope I see the dark night stars
I hope I feel the rush
of cool crisp air and hush
I will awake in the face of the moon
and return to this place soon.
I'd love to hear about how you have or could go about creating the right time and space for yourself to do this deep work. What has worked for you? What are you struggling with?
I love to create and give people the space and time that they need in my work. If you would like some time with me when I return, please get in touch. Email me here or PM me on facebook and we can put some time in the diary of delight.
With warmth and wonder

Greece: Recession, end of one-off business tax hits January revenues
ATHENS, Greece (AP) ' Greece's deep and prolonged recession took its toll on the central government's finances, which swung from surplus to deficit, official figures showed Friday.
Provisional figures from the finance ministry figures showed Greece posting a deficit in January of euro490 million ($652 million), in contrast to last year's equivalent surplus of euro154 million.
The ministry's General Accounting Office said revenues during the month were hit by the expiry of a one-off business tax, as well as reduced revenues from consumption.
Revenues in January totaled euro4.87 billion ($6.48 billion). Though a little bit better than the government's latest target, it's markedly worse than last year's equivalent of euro5.12 billion.
Greece has just embarked on its fifth year of recession, which has sent unemployment up to a record high just below 20 percent. In that context, households have reined in spending and that's knocked the government's sales tax receipts.
A more detailed look at the figures showed that the government was still running a primary deficit ' a net loss before including interest payments ' of euro33 million ($43.6 million) in January.
These figures exclude other portions of the general government accounts, which are used when the country's international creditors assess Greece's public finances.
Gripped by a severe financial crisis, Greece has been relying since May 2010 on rescue loans from its partners in the eurozone and the International Monetary Fund. But despite receiving euro73 billion from its initial euro110 billion bailout and pushing through tough austerity measures in return, the country has consistently missed its reform targets.
With the first rescue package clearly unable to prevent Greece from a messy default that could have threatened Europe's single currency, European leaders agreed to extend the country a second bailout, this time worth euro130 billion ($172 billion). It will be accompanied by a debt reduction deal with private holders of Greek government bonds.
On Thursday, the eurozone's finance ministers agreed in principle to release the first batch of bailout loans to Greece to finance the bond swap deal with private investors. But the final green light for the swap will come next week.
The deal, which aims to cut euro107 billion ($144 billion) from the country's debt, is a precondition for Greece to receive the rest of bailout funds.
In return for the second bailout, the government has pushed through legislation setting out more spending cuts, including salary and pension cuts, and has begun pushing through a promised privatization plan for state property.
On Friday it called for bids for the exploitation of one of its former Olympic Games venues, the International Broadcasting Center.
Built to accommodate broadcasting facilities for the 2004 Games, the IBC has since been converted into a shopping mall. It includes a vacant area of 14,300 square meters (153,925 square feet) and an underground parking area of 7,300 square meters (78,577 square feet).
The country's Asset Development Fund issued a tender for the rights of exclusive use, management and exploitation of the facility for 90 years. The offer includes the area currently leased as a shopping mall under a 40-year agreement that expires in 2047, the fund said.
Earlier this week, Greece launched a privatization offer for its Public Gas Corporation, DEPA.
Greece hopes to raise euro11 billion by the end of 2012 from a privatization drive started last year, and euro20 billion ($26.9 billion) by the end of 2013. The original target had been to raise euro50 billion by 2015.

Introduction to Paint
Paint. We see it everywhere and on everything. In the home, painting is one of the most popular DIY fix-ups by homeowners and renters. But what is this stuff? And when you go to buy it, on what do you base your decision? Is the $7/gallon paint as good as the $25/gallon paint? And what about latex paint and oil-based paint? Or primer?
It can all be pretty confusing, and as a result, many people simply base their decision on price and get the cheapest paint they can buy...only to find out that they need to paint and re-coat and re-coat and re-coat again, just to get the cheap paint to cover.
Here we'll talk about the basics of paint: what it is, what types there are, which type to use where and how to choose the right sheen.
Now let's get rolling...(or brushing.)Continue to 2 of 6 below.
02 of 06
What Paint Is Made From
Paint is a mixture of four basic ingredients: pigments, resins, solvents, and additives. In short, Pigment is the color. The resin is the binder or glue. The solvent is the carrier that makes it all liquid and evaporates as the paint dries. Additives provide specific performance characteristics, such as stain-blocking or mold-killing properties.
Cheap paints have a higher percentage of solvents per volume (say, a gallon) than better pains. As a result, there can be up to 50% less pigment and resin in a gallon of cheap paint. This means that most of what you are applying with cheap paint is solvent (water or mineral spirits), which just evaporates, leaving little pigment behind. This is why you have to re-coat and re-coat up to four times with low-quality paint before enough pigment is left behind to cover the color underneath.
So learn from the pros, who value their time, just as you should: Buy the best paint you can afford and avoid having to paint more than twice. Look for manufacturers with a good reputation, and check on the side of the can for about 45% pigment and resins per volume.Continue to 3 of 6 below.
03 of 06
Types of Paint: Water-Based and Oil-Based
At the end of the day, all paints basically fall under two solvent categories, which define their type: water-based and oil-based. Water-based paint actually has water as a solvent, but just to confuse everyone this paint is most commonly called "latex" even though it does not contain latex. Many water-based paints are made with acrylic and may be called "acrylic latex." Oil-based paint is equally confusing. It isn't actually made with oil; it has a solvent of mineral spirits (also known as paint thinner) or alkyd resin. Alkyd can be thinned with mineral spirits, and latex paint is thinned with water. At the paint store, you can't go wrong with the terms latex paint or alkyd or oil-based paint.Continue to 4 of 6 below.
04 of 06
Water Based Paint: Also Called Latex Paint
Latex paint is the most common type of paint for home use for a few reasons:
- Cleans up with soap and water
- Environmentally responsible; typically with fewer VOCs (volatile organic compounds)
- Excellent performance
- Remains flexible, withstands movement
- Can prevent mildew and moisture
- Fast-drying
- Available in many colors and sheens
You can use water-based paint in almost any application in the home, from exteriors and trim to interior walls and woodwork.Continue to 5 of 6 below.
05 of 06
Alkyd Paint
Alkyd paint is not commonly used in home painting applications. It used to be that these paints were the standard for bathrooms and other "wet" areas since they were easy to scrub, had a higher sheen and were more durable than the early latex paints. That is no longer true, as many latex paints now equal and sometimes outperform alkyd paints.
When used in the home, alkyd paints are most commonly reserved for areas subject to heavy wear or prone to impact. These include trim, floors and sometimes cabinets. Another benefit to alkyd is it has a longer drying time than latex paint so it does not show brush strokes as much, an advantage when painting trim, woodwork, and cabinetry.
Some disadvantages of alkyd paint include:
Continue to 6 of 6 below.
- Typically more expensive than latex paint
- Odor-intensive when drying and typically contains more VOCs (volatile organic compounds)
- Requires cleanup with chemical solvent (mineral spirits, or paint thinner)
- Some local municipalities restrict the use of this paint because of the hazardous materials it creates in the waste stream
06 of 06
Paint Sheen
Another consideration in selecting the proper paint is a factor called paint sheen. Paint sheen refers to how shiny the dried paint surface becomes. There are four basic sheens:
- Flat
- Eggshell or Satin
- Semi-gloss
- Gloss
Flat paints have the least amount of sheen. The advantages of this are that the paint hides imperfections well and the painted surface creates very little glare. The disadvantage is that is not very washable. If you rub the surface with a damp sponge the paint comes off on the sponge. For all of these reasons, flat paint typically is used only on the ceilings in homes.
Eggshell paint has a moderate amount of sheen so it hides imperfections somewhat and produces relatively little glare. It's also fairly washable. These characteristics make it the standard choice for all walls in living areas; that is, everywhere except kitchens and bathrooms. Satin is similar to eggshell and is sometimes a half-step up in glossiness. Some manufacturers offer satin in place of eggshell; others offer both.
Semi-gloss is used in kitchens, bathrooms, laundry rooms and similar areas that need the high washability and moisture-resistance of a glossier paint. It's ok to use eggshell or satin in these areas, too, provided the surfaces stay dry, but semi-gloss is a better all-around option.
Gloss paint is used on trim, doors, and cabinets because it's tough and highly washable. It also reflects a lot of light, which makes these small but detailed elements pop with color.

I am trying to run FreeBSD-11.0 on ibm bluemix cloud virtual machine(openstack based), but it thow error: "Flavor's disk is too small for requested image."
I am trying to use official image from ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/VM-IMAGES/11.0-RELEASE/amd64/Latest/FreeBSD-11.0-RELEASE-amd64.qcow2.xz of course i unxz it.
Maybe you have created big image file more than 20gig and maybe better to delete swap partition from image.
Many clouds providers are using small openstack flavor with 20gig max disk size, but your official image seems bigger because of it i can not run official image on ibm bluemix, hp cloud or any other openstack cloud provider.
Moreover it is better is you will publish unxz image of vm because openstack can not understand xz archive and now evry cloud user must download image from your ftp than unxz it and than upload it to openstack cloud provider. But if you publish image in qcow2 format(not zipped with xz) evry cloud provider can once download your image and than just use it for all who put same url. It will realy slow down your server load.

update the OpenStack with configuration with cloudware common options.
Hi --
This patch adds the following functionality to the FreeBSD OpenStack image:
- resize FreeBSD to the size of the OpenStack flavor (growfs).
- speeds up the boot process by disabling sendmail.
- allows an user to ssh as root with a public key.
- make ssh respond faster by disabling DNS lookups (can be reverted).
- enable DHCP on the vtnet interface.
This will generate a qcow2 image with 1.4G in size. The entire process uses the release(7) toolchain to generate the image and should work with newer versions of FreeBSD. Tested with 11.0-RELEASE-p1 and also tested on OpenStack Mitaka.
To generate your own image:
1. Follow the regular process of build(7) - buildworld buildkernel
2. cd /usr/src/release
3. make cloudware-release WITH_CLOUDWARE=yes CLOUDWARE=OPENSTACK
I still need to test the full functionality of cloud-init but overall it looks ok.
comments? ok?
Created attachment 177674 [details]

Adds an option for building OpenStack specific images.

As we weep over the dead and injured killed by guns, in anguish, we recognize the blood stains of hatred. We hear the sounds of fear, the echoes of gunshots — once again, once again.
Christ, you came to bring us peace. We turn to you in overwhelming sorrow. How can we end this nightmare of violence?
How can we build a world of inclusion, of solidarity? Give us the grace to reflect deeply and to work ceaselessly to heal the hearts; to stop the guns; to cherish all God's children.
Christ, you endured violent suffering to bring us light. We pray for the dead, may they rest in peace. We pray for the wounded, may they find healing.
We pray for our nation, may we end the hate. We pray for our global family, may we learn we are one.
Ojibwe Healing Prayer
Sacred one,
Teach us love, compassion, and honor.
That we may heal the earth
And heal each other.
Buddhist prayer from U.N. Day of Prayer for World Peace
May all beings everywhere plagued with sufferings of body and mind quickly be freed from their illnesses.
May those frightened cease to be afraid, and may those bound be free.
- For the seventeen victims of the shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida on February 14th, 2018.
- For the families of the victims: that they may find peace, healing, and hope for a better future.
- For the survivors: that they, too, may find peace, healing and hope, and their lives may be filled with love, meaning, and fire to move forward and make a difference.
- For teachers across the United States: that they may rise up to meet the needs of their students and face the challenges of all that is being imposed upon them in these trying times.
- For all victims of gun violence: that, for them, we take steps toward peace.
- For first responders, law enforcement and security professionals: that they might have peace of heart and mind and the courage to act justly in all situations.
- For an end to gun violence: that we might cultivate a culture of love and respect for life.
- For the safety of students in all learning environments: that we may create an environment in which students feel secure enough to dedicate themselves to their studies and personal growth.
- For all of those in fear: that hope will allow us to persevere.
- For the acknowledgement of mental health issues in our youth: that we might address problems early and appropriately.
- For all of those suffering from mental illness: that they find support and healing.
- For eyes to be open to the reality of gun violence: that all of us in the nation and across the world recognize that we can do better.
- For our country's leaders, and those running for and discerning leadership roles: that they listen with an intent heart to the pain caused by violence.
- For open and productive dialogue: that it may bridge the gap so a resolution to this issue can be agreed upon.
- For advocacy and action: that we might all go into the world and actively work for justice for victims of gun violence.
- For a change in our culture of violence: that peace becomes a reality.
- For a sense of fraternity, community and unity in light of violence and tragedy: That all across the nation we may join together.

floor decoration
There are heaps and heaps of good places to buy rugs from; IKEA sell great graphic ones, and Urban Outfitters have got a huge range of lovely eclectic styles, but my favourites came from somewhere I never expected - Lotta from Stockholm.
Famous for their fabulous range of incredible clogs (have you seen the aubergine T-bars? Amazing!), Lotta also stock a range of Pappelina rugs, full of geometric shapes, pastels and bright colours. There's even an Aztec-esque pattern in there - look!
I'm particularly taken with the bottom left style, 'Klas Red' - I think it would look amazing in our teeny tiny hallway. Every rug is available in a range of sizes and prices, so no matter what size or shape your room, there's something for everyone. See the full range here - and then go and have a look at the clogs. And bags. And, err, jewellery. Ahem.

All-White Crowns
Porcelain crowns cover the exterior portion of your teeth. If you have a tooth that is broken down or in danger of breaking, a porcelain crown, often called a "cap," will beautifully restore the appearance of the tooth, and it will look completely natural.
Originally, crowns were made only with metal foundations to increase the strength of the porcelain and prevent stress cracks from occurring in them. But metal decreases the translucence in crowns, and in time, the metal shows through and makes your gumline look dark. Today, other durable options are available. Crowns made of all porcelain provide a natural-looking restoration to your teeth without a metal foundation. And more advanced technology in crowns exists, including zirconia crowns, which are used by Dr. Aaron Schamback.
Porcelain Crowns with a Zirconia Base
Zirconia crowns on front teeth
Zirconia is a super-strong ceramic material that can be made ultra-thin to match the beauty, color, and translucency of your natural teeth, as the picture to the right shows. Zirconia, or zirconium oxide, is used in various fields of technology, including aerospace technology, because of its high-tensile strength—the ability to withstand large amounts of stress. It is so strong that it's often referred to as "ceramic steel." The durability of zirconia crowns enables them to be used on back teeth and in dental bridges.
Advantages of Porcelain Crowns
- They are very strong and durable.
- Light can pass through them, so they have the translucency of your natural teeth.
- There is no metal framework, so you don't have to worry about metal allergies or a black gumline.
- They insulate your teeth and protect them from sensitivity to heat and cold. Sensitivity is common in crowns with a metal foundation.
In part, the durability and life-like appearance of the crown you receive is due to the artistry and proper bonding techniques of the dentist. Dr. Schamback is an artistic cosmetic dentist who has received advanced training in cosmetic dentistry to ensure that your crowns will perfectly blend in with your natural teeth.
Porcelain Crowns Complimentary Consultation
If you are interested in having your teeth beautifully restored with crowns, contact us to schedule a complimentary consultation. You will be able to meet Dr. Schamback, ask questions about this treatment, and find out if it's right for you. Call us or request an appointment online. (D9310)

Wedding Photography
Wedding Photography
Wedding Day is, unquestionably, one of your happiest days ever. One can never fully express the joy and enthusiasm in stock for this most special of days in one's life. Sharing the happiness of wedding with your family and relatives, experiencing the thrill of being the center of attention by every means, bringing out the best possible you for the big occasion – everything is an inevitable part of the splendor of a wedding function. And wedding photography tops it all. The question is how we can make the most out of wedding photography. Here are some ideas.
Organize the wedding in a beautiful venue
Wedding venues can really help to make a wedding special. Carefully plan the decorations and festivities need to be present on the venue. Go for graceful color combinations when it comes to the lighting and similar arrangements on the venue.
Be open to experiment with camera angles
Make your photographer comfortable and tell him that you are open to the idea of experimenting with different camera angles. Plan in advance some rare angles and pauses and suggest them to your photographer
Add a bit of filmy flavor
The trend of the time is to mix a great deal of cinematic beauty to wedding photography. Demand for a bit of filmy flavor to be added to your wedding photo shoot. Be ready with 2-3 references. Try different locations.

Choppin' It Up is a series where One Love Massive Studios gets in-depth with movers and shakers doing creative things within the context of music, arts, and entrepreneurship.
This week, alongside OLM's Chadwick Alexander, we have Mark from Pink Fox: a D.C. based lifestyle brand centered around pop culture and relieving the stigma surrounding recreational use of marijuana.
The brand has been featured by VICE as one of the entrepreneurial cannabis ventures to watch in the U.S. and has been a very vocal proponent of Initiative 71. Through a unique blend of tongue-in-cheek pop culture references, a hip demeanor, and emphasis on giving back to those who endorse their brand, Pink Fox has become an underground, self-referential tour de force within our nation's capital.

Traveling thru enormous Los Angeles County is a challenge. There are soooooo many people living here and the vehicle traffic is beyond belief. We have chosen to travel along the Pacific Coast, on Highway #1. We are hoping to skirt the traffic on this route.
6AM - Malibu Morning Camp.
We have made our Morning Camp just as the dawn is beginning to break. MsTioga's Camp is high over the Pacific Ocean. We are in a wide parking area alongside Highway #1.
11AM - Camping in Venice.
We have made a Camp in the City of Venice. We are in a residential neighborhood with no parking meters, a real find in this section of Los Angeles County.
4PM - Redondo Beach.
We left our Venice Camp because the street was too narrow. MsTioga was worried that a car would hit her during the nite.
We found a one-way street with a place for MsTioga to Nite Camp in the City of Redondo Beach. There is a vacant power line right-of-way next to us, and this site is level too!
