Around 2073 the began an unexpected decline. Major multinational corporations lost trillions of net worth over a period of the days. This time frame became known as the Reaping, and within several weeks the stock market crashed and the world swiftly fell into economic turmoil.
By 2074 most currencies were practically worthless. Poverty swept over nations and Governments instated martial law to maintain order. Several paramilitary groups sprung up rapidly and began a struggle for control of towns, cities and entire regions and counties. Nations eventually began hostile invasions of the countries who were the most affected by paramilitary take over and civil uprising, with the hopes of steadying the plummeting economy. This resulted in full scale war and the start of World War III. Between military conflict and the ever expanding mercenary organizations, fighting reached every part of the globe. The conflict lasted 2 years leaving once glorious nations and sprawling utopias in shambles. The world had been reduced to a monumental pile of rubble and smoldering fire.
A DarkAge began and survival became priority for those that survived the Collapse, as it became known. Over the years small settlements rose from the ash and decay and, surprisingly, became self-dependent. Hunting and fishing were almost impossible so these settlements learned to sow the land and raise livestock for milk and eggs. Settlements came together to forge larger, safer and more sustainable communities. These communities survived through bandit raids, natural disaster and internal conflicts to establish small pockets of civilization throughout the world.
50 years after the Collapse, people forgot most of what they knew or those with knowledge of the previous world began to perish. It was ancient, almost forgotten history. Much was forgotten about the rest of history as paper texts and hard copies of media had vanished long before social order had. The world only knew digital so when hard bound books, compact disks and other forms of media and information found there way into community leaders' hands, they became coveted artifacts. People began learning to rebuild antiquated technologies and began to document current events. a new world order began and out of it rose an order of Relic Hunters.
They began scouring ruins with the hopes of finding anthologies of past history, technical manuals to rebuild the world, and any form of entertainment from movies to board games. The Order became the most booming industry that all other industry was born from. Relic Hunters were well respected members of communities and the position was coveted by all.

British Gas Trading Limited and (i) Mr Z J Lock (ii) Secretary of State for Business, Innovation and Skills
Why care?
Under Article 7 of the EU Working Time Directive, all workers have the right to paid annual leave of at least four weeks (5.6 weeks in the UK under the Working Time Regulations 1998 "WTR"). However, it is left to national legislation to define how pay should be calculated. In the UK, the WTR say that employees are entitled to one week's pay for each week of holiday using the calculations in sections 221-224 of the Employment Rights Act 1996.
The ERA states that workers with "normal working hours" will have their week's pay calculated by reference to those hours; however, those with normal working hours whose pay varies and those without normal working hours will have their week's pay calculated using his or her average remuneration over the previous 12 working weeks.
This is the latest instalment in a long-running case to determine what should be included in holiday pay for the four weeks' statutory paid holiday to which workers are entitled under Regulation 13 of the WTR. (Workers are entitled to an additional 1.6 weeks' paid holiday under Regulation 13A: this decision does not apply to that leave.)
The facts
It's almost impossible to summarise this case without a brief history so far. Mr Lock is employed by British Gas Trading Limited as an Internal Energy Sales Consultant. Although he earns a basic salary, approximately 60% of his remuneration is commission he has earned from sales, paid weeks or months after the sale has happened. When consultants are on holiday, it is British Gas's usual practice to pay them holiday pay based upon their basic salary, and any commission they are owed from previous sales.
The Claimant brought a claim in the Employment Tribunal for unpaid holiday pay, arguing that he did not make any sales (and therefore earn commission) whilst he was on holiday, and so had a reduced income in the following months.
When the case first came to the Leicester employment tribunal, the tribunal was faced with two competing decisions: Evans v Malley Organisation Ltd t/a First Business Support, where the Court of Appeal held a salesman was entitled only to holiday pay based on his basic salary and not on his commission earnings; and Williams v British Airways, where the ECJ (later followed by the UK's Supreme Court) had held that a worker should receive his "normal remuneration" on holiday, and that pilots should receive an amount of holiday pay to include not only their basic salary but also flying allowances (which were intrinsically linked to their role), but not payments to cover expenses for time spent away from their base (which were only occasional or ancillary costs).
The employment tribunal stayed the claim and referred it to the ECJ, which held that where a worker is paid commission calculated on the basis of the sales that they make or other targets that they meet, the commission must also be included in the calculation of the holiday pay and the WTD precludes national law calculating statutory holiday based on basic salary alone.
The case was remitted to the Leicester tribunal to determine if the WTR could be interpreted in line with the ECJ decision and the EAT's decision in Bear Scotland (a holiday pay case in which it was held that non-guaranteed overtime and certain other allowances should be included when calculating statutory holiday pay under Regulation 13 of the WTR), and – if it could not – whether words could or should be added in to interpret the WTR to conform with the calculation of a week's pay under EU law (the Marleasing principle, as applied in Bear Scotland). The tribunal adopted the same approach as in Bear Scotland and held that the WTR can and should be read so that a worker with normal working hours whose remuneration includes commission or similar payment shall be deemed to have remuneration which varies with the amount of work done.
British Gas appealed the tribunal decision, but the appeal was dismissed by the EAT.
The EAT held it was not possible to distinguish Bear Scotland and Lock. The concept of "normal working hours" applies to both non-guaranteed overtime and to commission, and inBear Scotland itself the EAT had considered the case to be of a piece with BA v Williams, another case that did not concern overtime.
As a general principle, the EAT will follow its earlier decisions unless an exception to that rule applies. Here there was no question that Bear Scotland was "manifestly wrong", one of the possible exceptions. Whether the circumstances of the case are sufficiently exceptional to justify a departure from a previous decision depends on all the facts, but here there had been very full argument in Bear Scotland on the key question of whether domestic legislation can be interpreted in a way which conforms to EU law, and Langstaff J had correctly understood and set out the relevant principles. Simply because he reached a different decision on the compatibility of domestic legislation to EU law to that in another case did not mean he had misunderstood the principles in Bear Scotland.
The EAT rejected a request that it reconsidered the arguments in Bear Scotland, since if it were to do so, a third EAT case might take a different view in a future case, creating uncertainty. It is for the Court of Appeal, said the EAT, to determine whether Bear Scotland is correct.
What to take away
Unsurprisingly, given the comment above that it is for the Court of Appeal to decide whetherBear Scotland was correctly decided – and the history of this case so far – British Gas have been granted leave to appeal. Mr Lock's case is one of 60 against British Gas in the East Midlands region, and 918 in the UK, to say nothing of "many thousands" (in the EAT's words) of similar claims against other respondents, all of which are stayed at present.
Employers know that commission, non-guaranteed overtime and certain allowances must be included in the calculation of holiday pay. What the decision does not answer are the practical questions employers need to answer in order to calculate holiday pay. What is the appropriate reference period? Williams and earlier decisions in Lock say that the reference period must be a representative normal period (12 months, suggested the Advocate General in his Opinion before the ECJ decision in Lock). The ECJ said that it was for the national court to take an average figure over a period "considered to be representative".
What happens where – as British Gas argued – the commission rate has been set at a level which provides compensation for sales not made whilst on holiday (an element of unlawful rolled-up holiday pay)?
In the meantime, Bear Scotland is not over either: when that was remitted to the employment tribunal, the tribunal applied the EAT's decision that a three-month gap between deductions (underpaid holiday) was sufficient to break the chain of deductions and limit claims for back pay. Those claimants are appealing that decision to the EAT.
Finally, Mr Lock himself will be waiting for the case to return to the Leicester employment tribunal to determine the reference period and to calculate the holiday pay owing to him.

Republicans Are Killing You With Ebola, Of Course
Erica Payne, the same PR genius behind "F*ck Tea" and "Hey, Let's Deface Paul Ryan's New Book," has put out a chillingly effective new ad that tells the ugly truth about Ebola.
Watch and learn, wingnuts:
I especially like the horror-movie music emphasizing the repetition of "Cut." The Republicans want to chop you up with fiscal responsibility!
It's all part of their evil plan. Right, Donna?
Yes, they want you to be afraid, but evidently not of the things that can really harm you. #HopeOverFear
— Donna Brazile (@donnabrazile) October 12, 2014
#1 on that list: Insufficient government spending.
You have to trust that government employees are using your tax dollars responsibly, and that they're telling you the truth about it. They wouldn't lie to you. What would be in it for them?
Or maybe you don't believe them. Maybe you're a traitor. Maybe you hate the United States of America.
Yeah, that's what I thought, teabagger.

At least a half dozen developers have signaled their interest in submitting plans to remake the former Twin Cities Army Ammunition Plant site on Monday, the first day applications were accepted.
Now called Rice Creek Commons, the site is considered one of the largest open development sites in the Twin Cities area. It served as an ammunition manufacturing facility for decades. Last November, Ramsey County said the site had been cleared of hazardous materials well enough for residential development.
The county now has 427 acres available for redevelopment and would like a single developer to come up with a plan for the whole site.
"It will have a 43-acre campus commercial site, located along 35W just north of County Road H, that will really be the premiere billboard site for development," said Heather Worthington, Ramsey County deputy manager.
Officials also hope to have 2.5 million square feet of commercial development and as many as 1,500 housing units on the site.
Applications are being accepted through March 9. Development on the site could start as soon as next year.
The county bought the site in 2013, several years after pitching it to the Vikings in an attempt to lure the team to Arden Hills.
Correction: This story originally said that potential developers had submitted plans for the former TCAAP site. Ramsey County officials said there were six "planholders" for the property, but that they had not submitted actual development proposals. The above copy is correct.

UK (PRWEB) July 11, 2014
As reported by The Wall Street Journal's Market Watch in the article Blocking Memories Could Help Treat Drug Addiction (7/8), researchers from the United Kingdom have recently come up with a breakthrough discovery that drug addiction may be treatable through blocking the brain's memory receptors. There are certain parts of the human brain that can become programmed to remember the affects of drug abuse and cause addiction and relapse. Memories of the effects given off by drugs can cause a person to engage in drug abuse repeatedly. Previous studies on rats have showed that it is possible to alter or block the memory receptors of the brain by either altering a gene or blocking certain chemicals in the brain. While this research is still in its early stages, researchers believe that any testing of this method on humans would need to take place in a monitored medical environment.
Drug addiction is a powerful state that can be very difficult to break. Many recovering addicts often fall victim to relapse because their brains are programmed with memories of drug abuse and addiction. Currently, the most effective methods of drug abuse treatment are detoxification and rehab, in which medical professionals help addicts eliminate drugs from their bodies and recover from the process. At Harbor Village Detox, an upscale drug and alcohol addiction facility in Southern Florida, is fully equipped to help treat drug addiction in anybody. Our medical staff is well-trained and ready to assist you in your needs to get back on the road to recovery.
Whether someone suffering from a alcohol dependency or any other drug, it is highly important to seek the professional counseling and assistance found at a qualified detox center such as Harbor Village.

David Duchovny back for more Californication
Hank Moody, the hero of Showtime's comedy "Californication," is a roguish struggling novelist who says whatever is on his mind and feels a tug from every member of the opposite sex.
He might get into less trouble if he kept his lip buttoned and his fly zipped. But that wouldn't be Hank, nor would it be "Californication," which mines laughs (and, occasionally, gasps) from Hank's erotic misadventures, and those of his sexed-up fellow travellers.
Starring David Duchovny, "Californication" begins its third season Monday, Sept. 28 on Movie Central and The Movie Network with Hank landing a much-needed teaching job at a local college. This is thanks to a professor who is the sexy mother of a friend of Hank's teenage daughter Becca (Madeleine Martin).
Here in academia, Hank is primed to seduce his new colleague (whose husband, the dean of the college, is his boss), while a graduate assistant and a sassy coed are also on Hank's radar.
"I call it adult comedy," says Duchovny, "but not in the Triple-X sense. It's adult comedy because the characters are acting foolish but not acting like children. I see most mainstream American comedies with adults acting like children. Hank is childish, but he's not a child. He's a man acting childishly."

Zeenews Bureau
Bhopal: Hitting out at Union Home Minister P Chidambaram for his "saffron terrorism" remark, BJP President Nitin Gadkari Thursday said it is a ploy by the Congress to "appease minorities" for vote bank politics.
"I do not believe that there is any such thing as saffron
terrorism. The Congress talks about it only for its vote bank
politics...Long back, secularism used to mean respect for all
religions, but for Congress today it means only appeasement of
minorities," Gadkari told a press conference here.
"Terrorists are terrorists irrespective of their religion
and it won`t be proper to classify them on that basis," he
Gadkari said the UPA government was very lax in dealing
with terrorists.
"It is expected that the government would deal firmly and
strongly with terrorists but it is not doing so," he said.
At a function in New Delhi yesterday, Chidambaram had
said, "There is the recently uncovered phenomenon of saffron
terrorism that has been implicated in many bomb blasts of the
Attacking the Centre for failing to curb Naxalism,
Gadkari said the menace was prevalent in 230 districts of the
"Naxalism now exists in the country from Pashupatinath to
Kanyakumari," he said.
'Chose words before speaking'
BJP today asked Union
Home Minister P Chidambaram to carefully choose his words
before speaking and demanded an apology for his `saffron
terrorism` remark.
"HM should maintain full caution in selection of words
... he should apologise for his saffron terrorism remarks,"
BJP spokesperson Ravishankar Prasad told reporters here.
He further said "Saffron is the country`s pride... it is
a religious cloth of shankaracharyas, sadhus and saints.. it
is also the symbol of Indian culture."
Prasad was here to participate in a BJP workers meet.
The `saffron terror` issue was raked up in the Rajya
Sabha today by the BJP, and though it found itself isolated
the House witnessed two adjournments over the matter.
VHP demands apology from Chidambaram
After the Congress distanced itself from the 'saffron terror' remarks of Union Home Minister P Chidambaram, the Vshwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) demanded an apology from him.
Speaking at a press conference, VHP leader Ashok Singhal said that such a remark is unacceptable and Chidambaram should apologise for hurting the sentiments of Hindus.
Singhal also reiterated that Ram temple must be built on the disputed Ram Janmabhoomi site in Ayodhya.
It should be noted that the verdict on Ram Janmabhoomi- Babri Masjid issue is expected in the mid of September and VHP is gearing up for that.

Five great characters
- C.C.H. Pounder as detective Claudette Wyms on "The Shield":
For five seasons, rogue cop Vic Mackey and his Strike Team have gotten all the flashy story lines in this enthralling FX drama, but Wyms has provided the show with its moral compass. The weary Wyms has seen it all: corruption, despair and the worst that the residents of Los Angeles' mean streets can do to each other. Through it all she has stayed true to her oft-tested principles and, most of the time, to her partner, the equally dogged Dutch Wagenbach. Actually, as Wyms and Wagenbach, Pounder and Jay Karnes portray one of the most realistic work relationships on TV. Let's hope that Wyms' mysterious health problems don't break this wonderfully complicated pair apart.
9 p.m. Tuesdays, FX
- William Fichtner as Sheriff Tom Underlay on "Invasion":
"You ruined the surprise."
It's such an innocuous line of dialogue, delivered when Underlay finds his stepson rifling through a mysterious black bag. But in the hands of Fichtner, the words makes the hair on the back of your neck stand up. Fichtner is central to the allure of this much-improved ABC drama; he's believable as both the enigmatic, possibly dangerous leader of a group of alien-infected Florida residents, and as a frustrated father and husband, worried that his infected wife is still emotionally tied to her ex. The formerly slow-moving "Invasion" has picked up its pacing and plotting and is now a quite worthy Wednesday offering, but without Fichtner's creepy charisma, the show would be far less compelling.
9 p.m. Wednesdays, WLS-Ch. 7
- Mary Lynn Rajskub as Chloe O'Brian on "24":
How much do I love Chloe? Let me count the ways. I love her because she's fearsomely smart and knows how to do just about anything with three computer keystrokes; because she has no time for small talk and no tolerance for fools; because this season, she even got a love interest (who turned out to be a rat, but what are you gonna do?); because she has a zingy chemistry with her fellow "24" nerd, Edgar Stiles; because she's one of the few people whom Jack Bauer trusts; because she treats the weasely new CTU boss, Lynn McGill, with the open disdain he deserves; but mainly, because, when Edgar asks her how she's doing, she says stuff such as: "When we find the nerve gas and the alert level drops, we can have some chamomile tea and I can tell you all my secrets, OK?" Love her.
8 p.m. Mondays, WFLD-Ch. 32
- Robert Sean Leonard as Dr. James Wilson on "House":
Just as Sherlock Holmes needed John Watson, Gregory House needs James Wilson. Medical genius House is gruff, brilliant, cantankerous and has a special talent for making people angry. Wilson's there to assuage colleagues, unruffle feathers, offer advice - and also, to listen to House's innermost secrets and fears, which he admits to almost no one else. In the typically excellent "House" episodes that air Tuesday and Feb. 14, we get to see a lot of Wilson, which is a very good thing. Leonard is one of those rare actors who draws us in with wise subtlety and empathy barbed with honesty, rather than flash and sizzle. He's the underrated linchpin of the excellent "House" cast, and he handily holds his own with star Hugh Laurie, who is giving the best performance of any dramatic actor on television.
8 p.m. Tuesdays, WFLD-Ch. 32
- Santino Rice on "Project Runway":
Some "Runway" fans have grumbled that the powers that be who run this show may be keeping Rice around not because his dresses are good (in fact, sometimes they're downright bizarre), but because he brings the drama. And so he does, but he's also wickedly funny - his spot-on imitations of "Runway" adviser Tim Gunn are simply priceless. Rice is an arrogant, petulant, charming character who does make for great TV, and when his gowns have failed on the catwalk, it's because they've been too ambitious, and, let's face it, buckets of creative ambition and chutzpah are needed in the rag trade. Rice has talent, that seems clear, and personally, I can't wait to see if he channels his distinctive vision toward fashion greatness. Until then, I can't wait to see what high jinks he gets up to in the "Runway" studio.

Ok, it's about that time again -- we are 17 days away from the 2013 version of the Minnesota Twins Fantasy Camp. It is just amazing that after the holidays I get to spend a week down in Sunny Fort Myers and play baseball with a bunch of great guys. The camp is a virtual sell out again as we will have at least 100 campers who will be split up into 8 teams and play a round robin "regular season" then split up into two different playoff groups (Blue and Red divisions). We then play a single elimination (2 - four team brackets) playoff format which ends up in Hammond Stadium on Saturday for the Red and Blue division championships!! I am going for four in a row (yes, championships) this year -- let's see if my luck can continue.
It has been a good couple months, the workouts are going well and every week over the last 3 weeks have been getting in some hitting and pitching at Extra Innings with a couple of other campers. You always have to knock off the rust as the summer baseball season ends in late August.
We will again be updating this blog on a daily basis (potentially up to two times per day) I have been brainstorming on what to add this year and have been kicking around the idea of doing a quick video blog update as well. I am going to see who my pro staff coaches are this year and see if they would be a part of the video blog -- it would definitely make it more interesting.....
I will be joined this year by a long time college friend -- "Cheeley" -- so him and I will be featured as the campers in the blog. Just remember I use this as a venue of "fun" and to more or less diary my adventures at the camp! I enjoy any feedback from my readers -- feel free to direct tweet me @fantasycamper or send along an email to firstname.lastname@example.com -- I hope to make you laugh a bit, potentially envy me a bit, but mostly to take a few moments of your day to follow this camper along a fun journey playing baseball!!

Apply Unique Visible Results Techniques
In present-day innovative technological innovation, a photographer can utilize a variety of visual effects. A individual can utilize natural screen or chroma key effects to the images or video clips. On using the chroma key technological innovation, you electronically substitute the qualifications image of the topic by any other image or the graphic. This is to odor of the topic who is being modified from the facilities to any type of world thought by a photographer. There are many different tools or applications used for creating such an impact. You can also utilize an airborne image to the image with the help of any type of applications. It is a estimated image which gives an impact of sailing in the air. It is mainly used for special film effects, visual models or for cartoon films. Then you can also utilize pc produced visuals which is an program used in pc design. It is used in three perspective cartoon films and substantially used in the game titles. Flat artwork is also of another type of way to create the video clips or images creatively magnet as well as emphatic. It represents a manifestation inpainting of a surroundings or a far away location behind the topic. The primary aim is to create an impact of the primary topic status in a particular space that would otherwise be incorrect to visit and perform the capturing. For example, you can easily create an acting professional act out a landscape with a matte coloured qualifications behind the stars. Graphic designers are highly widely used with the rise in technologies like animation, designing, cartooning, visual effects and much more.

Earlier this year we had grand plans for doing Earth Science with at least one of the boys. I got half my plans together & had a minor freak out moment & pulled something else off the shelf to use instead. However, the weather here has been doing it's normal autumn/winter fight which makes for some insanely crazy weather patterns. It's had our in home Meteorologists going a little nuts as they watch the weather machines & check weather updates on the hour.
I figured what better time then now to pull those weather books back off the shelf & dig in! As I sat down Sunday evening to check our school plans & look over what we had going on for the week ahead I was caught with the weather books in my hands. All he said was, "Yes. I know exactly what your'e going to ask & my answer is 100% for sure yes!"
We have this running joke in our home that Mom's a mind reader because when the guys putter around trying to ask someone something instead of spitting it out I simply say, "What he's trying to say is.." which often gets the response of, "Yeah, what she said." Needless to say Jayde took pure delight in beating me to the question & reading my mind.
I purchased both of these weather books because we've used others in their series & I really like the style & way they are written. Explore Weather & Climate is by the same people who wrote a few of our "Ancient" craft books as well as the book we used when studying Simple Machines. In fact, I purchased a few others in this series for our Earth Science study too.
The Kids Book Of Weather Forecasting is from another series of favourites as well, all of which seem to be getting a nifty little facelift. I'm finding that this particular book, while scientific & written to the child, is more about getting them thinking about weather & weather related ideas. Whereas the Explore Weather & Climate is more science & experiment based. Together they make a fantastic combination for we wanted.
I'd like to order a few Weather Science kits, several of which I have flagged, but I'm torn because I'd also considered purchasing them as birthday presents for the same child. We shall see what unfolds there. In the mean time I have the Scholastic Easy Make & Learn Weather Projects. I'm pretty sure we snagged that one back during one of their $1 sales & the contents will make lovely notebooking pieces for him.
In the mean time I'm tending to just pull plans together a week at a time reading a few pages from one book or another as we go along. I'd like to plan it all out a bit farther in advanced, but really it comes together simply enough that if I only do it week by week I don't think I'll panic too much.
Here's our plans for the first 3 weeks if you're interested:

Ottawa Senators forward Alex Burrows was suspended 10 games for a kneeing incident against New Jersey Devils winger Taylor Hall that the National Hockey League Department of Player Safety called a "dangerous and unjustifiable attack."
Burrows was assessed with minor penalties for cross-checking and roughing Hall with 10 minute, 2 seconds of the second period of Tuesday night's 5-3 home win over the Devils. During the sequence, he hacked Hall with this stick, punched him in the head while standing next to him, dragged him to the ice in a headlock and delivered a few more punches.
After the linesmen wrapped up the players in the ice, Burrows raised his leg in the air and dropped his knee into the back of Hall's head twice.
Burrows, 36, claimed he was trying to pry himself from the pile.
"We heard Burrows' argument that the knees he delivered to Hall's head resulted from his attempt to free his arm from a compromising position," the Department of Player Safety said in a video. "We do not agree with his interpretation, nor would we excuse repeated knees to an opponent's head for that reason."
Burrows has been suspended once before by the NHL, for an illegal check to the head of Alexei Emelin in October 2014 that cost him three games, and he has been fined five times previously in his 893-game NHL career. Under the terms of the collective bargaining agreement, and based on his average annual salary, Burrows will forfeit $134,408.60.
Since the suspension is greater than five games, the Ottawa forward has the right to appeal the suspension to NHL commissioner Gary Bettman and then to a neutral arbitrator.
This suspension matches the longest of the season in the NHL. Philadelphia Flyers defenseman Radko Gudas was suspended for 10 games after slashing the neck of Winnipeg's Mathieu Perreault in November, and Detroit Red Wings defenseman Luke Witkowski was suspended 10 games for returning to the ice for an altercation, also in November.

Wilma's Aftermath
Hurricane Wilma was a surprisingly powerful storm. Here in Orlando, about 200 miles from the main path of the storm, you received winds between 35 and 50 mph, and about four inches or so of rain in several hours. Although there was no damage to your home, power (and cable/Internet) was out for an extended period of time.
During the worst of the storm, you ventured outside while your wife, astonished by your foolishness, snapped the picture above.
Unfortunately, things didn't go as well for your family in south Florida. The damage to your Mother's home and the surrounding area is extensive. Many windows in her house were completely shattered (including several sliding glass doors), and her home was exposed fully to the elements for an extended period, allow additional damage from water intrusion. The roof may also have damage.
The neighborhood streets were flooded. There's no power in her area, and according to news reports it's possible that it may take weeks to fully restore it. Worse, they have no phone or cell service because of the power issues. The area is under a boil-water order, but even if there were power, the low water pressure would still be a problem.
This was probably the worst hurricane that most areas of south Florida have experienced since 1950 (Hurricane Andrew in 1992 was a powerful but more localized storm).
It's a bad scene down there, and the damage from this storm will likely be second only to Hurricane Katrina this season.

ARM processors are invading HPC and supercomputer segments. The Power9 is getting closer and closer to general commercial availability. IBM unveiled not one but two new quantum computers. Meanwhile, the Z continues to roll right along without skipping a beat, according to BMC's 12th mainframe survey.
There is no doubt that the computing landscape is changing dramatically and will continue to change. Yet mainframe shops appear to be taking it all in stride. As Mark Wilson reported on the recently completed SHARE Europe conference in the UK, citing the keynote delivered by Compuware's CEO Chris O'Malley: "By design, the post-modern mainframe is the most future ready platform in the world: the most reliable, securable, scalable, and cost efficient. Unsurprisingly, the mainframe remains the dominant, growing, and vital backbone for the worldwide economy. However, outdated processes and tools ensnared in an apathetic culture doggedly resistant to change, prevent far too many enterprises from unleashing its unique technical virtues and business value." If you doubt we are entering the post-modern mainframe era just look at the LinuxONE Emperor II or the z14.
Earlier this month BMC released its 12th annual mainframe survey. Titled 5 Myths Busted, you can find the report here. See these myths right below:
- Myth 1: Organizations have fully optimized mainframe availability
- Myth 2: The mainframe is in maintenance mode; no one is modernizing
- Myth 3: Executives are planning to replace their mainframes
- Myth 4: Younger IT professionals are pessimistic about mainframe careers
- Myth 5: People working on the mainframe today are all older
Everyone from prestigious executives like O'Malley to a small army of IBMers to lowly bloggers and analysts like DancingDinosaur have been pounding away at discrediting these myths for years. And this isn't the first survey to thoroughly discredit mainframe skeptics.
The mainframe is growing: 48% of respondents saw MIPS growth in the last 12 months, over 50% of respondents forecast MIPS growth in the next 12 months, and 71% of large shops (10,000 MIPS or more) experienced MIPS growth in the last year. Better yet, these same shops forecast more growth in the next 12 months.
OK, the top four priorities of respondents remained the same this year. The idea that mainframe shops, however, are fully optimized and just cruising is dead wrong. Survey respondents still have a list of to-do of priorities:
- Cost reduction/optimization
- Data privacy/compliance
- Availability
- Application modernization
Maybe my favorite myth is that younger people have given up on the mainframe. BMC found that 53% of respondents are under age 50 and of this group, (age 30-49 with under 10 years of experience) overwhelmingly report a very positive view of the the mainframe future. The majority went so far as to say they see the workload of their mainframe growing and also view the mainframe as having a strong position of growth in the industry overall. This is reinforced by the growth of IBM's Master of the Mainframe competition, which attracts young people in droves, over 85,000 to date, to work with the so-called obsolete mainframe.
And the mainframe, both the Z and the LinuxONE, is packed with technology that will continue to attract young people: Linux, Docker, Kubernetes, Java, Spark, and support for a wide range of both relational databases like DB2 and NoSQL databases like MongoDB. They use this technology to do mobile, IoT, blockchain, and more. Granted most mainframe shops are not ready yet to run these kinds of workloads. IBM, however, even introduced new container pricing for the new Z to encourage such workloads.
John McKenny, BMC's VP of Strategy, has noticed growing interest in new workloads. "Yes, they continue to be mainly transactional applications but they are aimed to support new digital workloads too, such as doing business with mobile devices," he noted. Mobility and analytics, he added, are used increasingly to improve operations, and just about every mainframe shop has some form of cloud computing, often multiple clouds.
The adoption of Linux on the mainframe a decade ago imediatey put an end to the threat posed by x86. Since then, IBM has become a poster child for open source and a slew of new technologies, from Java to Hadoop to Spark to whatever comes next. Although traditional mainframe data centers have been slow to adopt these new technologies some are starting, and that along with innovative machines like the z14 and LinuxONE Emperor ll are what, ultimately, will keep the mainframe young and competitive.

The Ralph W. and I. Elizabeth Timerman Memorial Scholarship
This scholarship was established in 1981 by the family of the late Ralph W. Timerman to recognize his lifelong interest in education and community service. The two-year scholarship is awarded preferably to a student from the Town of Orleans (the LaFargeville Central School District) studying full-time at Jefferson Community College. It is administered the second year only if the recipient maintains satisfactory academic standing.
Mr. Timerman was born on December 27, 1915, at Orleans Corners in the Town of Orleans on the farm where he lived his entire life. His father, Claude Timerman, died September 6, 1934, at 44 of injuries received in an automobile accident in Indianapolis, Ind., while returning home after attending the Chicago World's Fair. His mother, Jeannette Fleming Timerman, died November 21, 1933, at 45. With his parents' deaths, Mr. Timerman and his two sisters were placed in the care of family members. He attended LaFargeville High School and graduated from Theresa High School in 1936. As a teenager, he worked in a grocery store to earn spending money.
In 1938, he graduated from Canton Agricultural and Technical College (now the State University College of Technology at Canton) in Canton, New York. For two years, in 1940 and 1941, Mr. Timerman was a civilian employee with the Army Corps of Engineers at Pine Camp (now Fort Drum), supervising construction of the airport.
He married Ida Elizabeth Tenney of Theresa, an elementary school teacher, on June 27, 1940. The couple raised three children, instilling in them the values of hard work and neighborliness.
During World War II, the Timermans had a large flock of chickens and sold eggs. Mrs. Timerman was asked by her husband to take care of the flock, but she did not like the task and egg production dropped. However, when Mr. Timerman returned to the duty, egg production rose. Mrs. Timerman suspected that her husband's success was partly due to the fact that he talked to the chickens while he fed them. Actually, she recalled, he enjoyed all the animals on the farm and showered them with attention.
In the 1950's, the Timermans added a beef cattle herd to the dairybusiness.
In 1956, Mr. Timerman rebuilt and expanded the main dairy barn after a fire caused $40,000 in damages. Neighbors offered to help, and, in later years, he was quick to return the favor. When a neighbor was unable to milk his cows for several months due to poor health, Mr. Timerman took over the milking until the neighbor's health was restored.
Mr. Timerman was active in local politics for nearly 30 years. In 1964, he was elected supervisor of the Town of Orleans, a post he held until his death in 1981. He was unanimously elected chair of the Jefferson County Board of Supervisors for the 1976-77 term.
An eight-year board member of the LaFargeville Central School District, Mr. Timerman was assessor for the Town of Orleans from 1952 to 1967, and a member of the Town of Orleans board. He served on numerous other boards and committees, including the Jefferson County Planning Board, the Farm Credit board of directors and the Thousand Islands Bridge Authority. He had been vice-chair of the board of the Black River-St. Lawrence Regional Planning Board.
He represented Jeferson County at a May 1978 conference to establish the Adirondack-North Country Economic Council.
Mr. Timerman served as president of the Federal Land Bank Association. He was presented a citation in 1972 recognizing his years of service as a director of the Land Bank and Production Credit Associations.
He was a member of the New York Beef Cattlemen's Association, the LaFargeville Volunteer Fire Department, Masonic Lodge 171 in LaFargeville and the International Order of Odd Fellows. He was also a member of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Orleans in Four Corners.
Mr. Timerman had a variety of interests. A member of the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association, he held a private pilot's license and owned a small plane. He also enjoyed music, playing the saxophone in a dance band in college and the organ in his later years.
After selling the dairy herd in 1968, the Timermans traveled around the country by car and private plane. They also enjoyed Caribbean cruises.
Mr. Timerman died February 24, 1981, after chasing some beef cattle that had trampled over a fence on his property. He died as he wished, literally 'with his boots on.'
In a Watertown Daily Times editorial soon after his death, Mr. Timerman was praised as an 'honest, dedicated, concerned man' who 'conducted his public life with deep pride.' In 1983, the Northern New York Agricultural Historical Society dedicated its new dairy products promotion building at the Stone Mills Agricultural Museum to his memory.
He is survived by his wife, Elizabeth, three children, seven grandchildren and a great-grandchild. The Timerman farm is now operated by his son, Ralph, who returned it to dairy farm status.
The Jefferson Community College Foundation is grateful to the Timerman family for creating the Ralph W. Timerman Memorial Scholarship.

NEW ORLEANS — If you have a brother, you know.
There is no one you'd rather beat.
There is no one you feel for more when they have been beaten.
Notorious is the best way to describe football coaches' single-minded determination. No distraction is too important not to be forbidden. No sacrifice can be placed on the altar of victory that is too great.
John and Jim Harbaugh would have us all believe aliens armed with deer antler spray could descend on the Mercedes-Benz Superdome during Super Bowl XLVII on Sunday and they wouldn't notice. That the man standing on the sideline opposite them could well be a Martian or a Manning for all they care while the clock is running.
To them, their adversary could be anyone but the boy the other fought with, played with, grew up with on the now-yellowed scrapbook pages of their youth.
To illustrate the bond they feel with their teams, John Harbaugh talked Friday of how younger brother Jim memorized the words Shakespeare gave Henry V to meld his troops together on Saint Crispin's Day:
"We few. We happy few. We band of brothers. For he today that sheds his blood with me shall be my brother."
Fine words. Noble sentiments.
But if you have a brother, you know. You know when the game ends and fate has picked John's Baltimore Ravens or Jim's San Francisco 49ers, the brother who has suddenly reached the uncommon pinnacle of their common profession will find the euphoria shared with his band of brothers choked back by the chain of empathy he feels for the man he has shared a lifetime with.
The winning brother will hoist a gleaming silver trophy.
He'll also be shedding blood for his real brother.
The one you want to beat.
The one you never truly want to see beaten.
"For the side that comes up short, it's going to be bitter disappointment," John said. "That's how football works. That's how life is, and we understand that."
As great a storyline as the Bro Bowl is, the football gods could have allowed us one better.
If it had been Peyton Manning's Denver Broncos squaring off against Eli Manning's New York Giants here, in the city where they were born and raised? Nothing in the post-Bountygate unraveling of the New Orleans Saints' wasted season, the Exile on Airline, could have trumped that.
But New York, feast or famine franchise that it is, sputtered during the season and never made the playoffs. The Broncos wrestled home-field advantage away from the rest of the AFC, then saw it evaporate on the wings of Joe Flacco's still barely comprehensible 70-yard prayer to Jacoby Jones with 31 seconds left in regulation that eventually turned Peyton into a spectator as well.
So we are left with this unprecedented drama. All in all, not a bad bargain.
How would Shakespeare have written the ending? Would he have had them shake hands and leave it there for the moment, both afraid emotions would overwhelm them? Would he have them give in to it, let them embrace with smiles and tears and flashbulbs popping?
For most of the English-speaking world, it will fall to CBS play-by-play announcer Jim Nantz to narrate the denouement. He said he will do so with silence.
"People ask me what I'm looking forward to most," Nantz said Tuesday. "I'm looking forward to the end of the game and saying nothing. It will be one of the great moments ever captured visually between two coaches."
It's hard to imagine a 24-hour rule after this one.
For both, there will be lingering happiness, either to be the winner or to see someone you love join a club with only 28 other lifetime members. For both, there will be lingering sadness, knowing how getting so close to the top and losing can be a stigma.
It shouldn't be that way, but it is. Perhaps it's human nature. Recognizing that, John and Jim's father, Jack — himself a longtime football coach — knows where he will be most needed after the game.
"There's going to be one winner, and there's going to be one that is totally disappointed," Jack said. "My thoughts go out to that one that will not experience the thrill of victory. That's where our thoughts will be."
There will be a trophy in the Harbaugh clan Sunday. Fate has guaranteed it.
But fate also demands a price to be paid. Pure, undiluted victory? The Harbaughs will get none of that.
If you have a family, you know.
