Business CDARS
The Certificate of Deposit Account Registry Service®
At Burke & Herbert Bank, we have a highly regarded century-and-a-half reputation to live up to when it comes to protecting our customers' money. So it just makes sense for us to offer the Certificate of Deposit Account Registry Service, or CDARS®.
CDARS provides access to multi-million-dollar FDIC insurance coverage on CD investments. With CDARS, your funds are placed in CDs issued by banks that are members of the CDARS Network in amounts less than the standard FDIC maximum ($250,000). As a result, your principal and interest are eligible for FDIC coverage. Yet you receive only one statement for your account. By working directly with one bank - Burke & Herbert Bank - you can receive insurance through many.
Next to you, no one else is more interested in protecting your hard-earned money than Burke & Herbert Bank. And with CDARS, you can feel even more confident trusting your money to us.
To learn more about CDARS, visit your nearest Burke & Herbert Bank branch, or call us at 703-684-1655.
Limits apply. Funds may be submitted for placement only after a depositor enters into a CDARS Deposit Placement Agreement with us. The agreement contains important information and conditions regarding the placement of funds by us. CDARS and Certificate of Deposit Account Registry Service are registered service marks of Promontory Interfinancial Network, LLC.

Comet Swift-Tuttle blazes across the sky in this 1992 false-color image from the Spacewatch telescope in Arizona. Amateur astronomer Lewis Swift and U.S. Navy astronomer Horace Tuttle discovered the comet independently in July 1862. Later, it was discovered that the comet is the source of the Perseid meteor shower in August. The comet visits the inner solar system once every 130 years or so; its last visit was in the early 1990s. [Jim Scotti/Spacewatch]

Swift Comets
To the people of Cortland, New York, Lewis Swift was a bit of an oddity. Most nights, for a little while after sunset and before sunrise, the hardware merchant used a small telescope to scan the skies close to the Sun.
In 1862, though, his status changed from "oddity" to "celebrity." On July 16th, Swift discovered a comet — one that went on to stage a great show. And today, the comet is better known as the parent of August's Perseid meteor shower.
Swift was born on Leap Day of 1820. At age 13, he fractured his hip in an accident, so for the next couple of years he devoted more time to study than farm work. In 1850 he developed an interest in microscopes. And a few years later, he built his first telescope.
Swift became fascinated by comets after viewing a brilliant one in 1858, and making it the topic of his first scientific paper.
When Swift first saw the comet of 1862, he wasn't sure if it was new or one that had been seen before. A few days later, though, he heard that astronomer Horace Tuttle had reported the discovery of the same comet Swift had seen. Swift quickly reported his own observations, so the comet was named Swift-Tuttle in their honor. More about the comet tomorrow.
After 1862, the comet disappeared from view for more than a century. Swift discovered several more comets, and eventually became a full-time astronomer, studying everything from eclipses to galaxies — a career built on the discovery of a comet.

Video Makeup Tutorial: MAC Dare to Wear Blues
Video Makeup Tutorial: MAC Dare to Wear Blues
Here's a video tutorial of this blue look I did yesterday! 🙂 I hope you enjoy it!
I keep forgetting to mention in a video as a fun fact, so I'm at least going to write it here since I am remembering…
FUN FACT: I don't plan the look! I usually have an idea of what I want (e.g. I want to do a blue look, or use X product, or do green and blue or brown and gold), but I don't have anything picked out yet. What you see in the video is me doing the look for the first time – I don't even do one eye before the other. I do them both simultaneously (but we edit out when I do the other eye, since I'm out of the frame anyway). This is why you'll often see me give suggestions or modifications, based on how it turns out 🙂
You will need the following…
- Eyes: NARS Smudgeproof Eyeshadow Base (neutral eyeshadow base), MAC Aqua Eyeshadow (pale aqua-green), MAC Winkle Eyeshadow (periwinkle), MAC Atlantic Blue Eyeshadow (deep blue with violet), MAC Shroom Eyeshadow, MAC Royal Wink Fluidline (royal blue), Make Up For Ever #15L Aqua Eyes Liner (periwinkle), MAC Plushlash Mascara (black)
- Face: Make Up For Ever HD Foundation (140), Laura Mercier Loose Setting Powder (translucent)
- Cheeks: Estee Lauder Peach Nuance Blush (peachy pink)
- Lips: MAC Beachbound Lipstick (peachy-melon), Le Metier de Beaute Manhattan Lip Gloss (sheer beige), MAC Lychee Luxe Lipglass (coral)
- Brushes: 249 (flat, firm brush), 239 (fluffy shadow brush), 226 (fluffy crease brush), 219 (pointed crease brush), 116 (dense blush brush)
- Substitutes: Beachbound = Melon pigment

The Amazon rainforest is the largest in the world and covers nearly 70 percent of Brazil. The rainforest produces about 20 percent of the Earth's oxygen and plays a big role in controlling the climate of the entire planet. The Amazon also is home to more species of plants and animals than any other ecosystem on Earth, 30 percent of the world's total.
About one-fifth of the Amazon has disappeared in the past three decades. The causes are many: Logging, both legal and illegal; construction of homes and roads; and agri-business clearing land to plant crops or graze cattle.
The Brazilian government says the situation is getting better and that federal police are cracking down on illegal logging, in particular. But critics say there aren't enough agents on the ground and that more land needs to be put under federal protection.

All the bravado was gone when William Ackman walked into Target Corporation's annual shareholder meeting here Thursday. For months, the activist investor had been angling to put himself and four others on Target's board of directors, but there was no sense of that combativeness as he mingled with attendees in the soon-to-be opened Target store where the shareholders gathered.
Target CEO Gregg Steinhafel rushed over and shook his hand. "It felt like the old days," Ackman said later.
Whether the two sides can continue to let bygones be bygones will become clear in the coming days and weeks, after shareholders resoundingly rejected Ackman's move. A preliminary tally announced by Steinhafel showed that 70 percent of shareholders voted to keep Target's four incumbent members in their seats and keep the board at 12 members.
"It's a referendum on the strategic direction of the company, and management and the board obviously made a more compelling case," said Claudia Allen, a corporate governance expert with Chicago-based law firm Neal Gerber & Eisenberg.
For Minneapolis-based Target, the victory brought an end to its first proxy challenge, in which it spent $11.1 million and a lot of jet fuel to fend off Ackman, a once-friendly investor whose Pershing Square Capital Management owns the third-largest stake in the retailer through stock and options.
Ackman's initial $2 billion investment has dropped significantly in value since he began acquiring shares in 2007, however, and he said he is reviewing whether to sell any of his fund's stake. Earlier this week, he pledged he would hold shares for at least five years, had he landed a seat on the board.
After the meeting, Ackman said that "shares will go up and down" but that he expects an "even better relationship with Target going forward."
"More likely than not, we'll still own the stock a number of years from now as a result," Ackman said.
"That's the big fear among Wall Street investors: that the Target stock is going to come under pressure because he's going to drop his shares," said Piper Jaffray analyst Jeff Klinefelter, who attended the meeting. "There's no way he's going to drop all of his shares. Not after all he's been through."
The vote also caps a heck of a first year as CEO for Steinhafel. He took over the company on May 1, 2008, when legendary leader Robert Ulrich hit mandatory retirement age. Since then, the stock has gone from around $55 when Steinhafel became CEO to the mid-20s in early March. Rival Wal-Mart has outpaced Target in sales among existing stores since late 2007.
The stock closed Thursday at $39.14, down 46 cents.
Steinhafel said the proxy battle has "required a little extra energy" and "multitasking" but acknowledged there were some benefits -- such as meeting with virtually all of Target's 50 biggest shareholders.
"I'm a new CEO at Target, and I haven't had the opportunity to spend that kind of time with our shareholders," he said to reporters after the meeting. "As I think back over the last couple of months, it has so accelerated my relationship with our important shareholders. I look at that as a plus."
The annual meeting took place on Steinhafel's home turf. He grew up near Milwaukee, where his family's furniture chain advertises prominently on local television. He attended Carroll College in Waukesha, just miles from the prototype store where nearly 250 people gathered for the meeting.
Addressing shareholders at the meeting before the vote was announced, Ackman twice choked up when quoting John F. Kennedy and Martin Luther King Jr. He used their words to help explain his belief in the importance of giving shareholders choices and pushing for a more transparent and open voting process. He said he was willing to "pay the price" for "doing what is right."
"We launched this contest to make sure Target is never known in the future as a once-great company," he said.
The battle over Target's board seats was closely watched, not just because of the price tag, but because Target is widely viewed as a healthy company with a solid management team. Typically, troubled companies are the focus of such battles.
But Allen said Ackman's strategy of offering a "short slate" as opposed to a full-fledged board takeover is becoming more common. If the Securities and Exchange Commission acts to make it easier for activists to add their candidates to the company's ballot, giving shareholders the ability to pick and choose among candidates, it will make it easier for shareholders such as Ackman to get a voice.
As a result of Ackman's challenge, Steinhafel said, Target would look broadly at "corporate governance," which he underscored was a broad term that could include length of service and whether to split the CEO and board chair duties, as well as a host of other options.
Klinefelter agreed the costly contest could have some lingering benefits.
"This has clearly mobilized Target management and crystallized a lot of their strategies," he said. "I'll bet they'll come out of this process with an even stronger conviction regarding their merchandising philosophy long term, and also some of their near-term opportunities in perhaps adjusting their promotional game and pricing to combat their negative spending and traffic sales trends."
For first-time attendees such as shareholder Betty Rasmussen, who drove in from Madison, Wis., the meeting provided a chance to see how the contentious vote turned out, plus a chance to meet executives. (She said she talked to Steinhafel about the pharmacy department at her local Target.)
Rasmussen said she was pleased with the vote.
"We love Target. We supported management absolutely," she said. "We started with Dayton-Hudson, and that was a long time ago."

Mascarpone Cheesecake
1 1/2 cups amaretti cookies
12 mini or 5 large biscotti cookies
6 tablespoons butter, melted
8 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
1 pound mascarpone cheese, at room temperature
3/4 cup sugar
3 eggs
Pinch salt
1 teaspoon almond extract
1 orange, zested
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 9-inch springform pan or 2 (12-count) mini cheesecake pans with nonstick cooking spray. Wrap the outside of the pan with aluminum foil.
Add the cookies in a large resealable bag. Cover the bag with a kitchen towel and crush with a rolling pin until the cookies are coarsely ground. In a medium bowl, mix together the cookie crumbs with the melted butter. Press the mixture into the bottom and 1-inch up the sides of the prepared springform pan or mini cheesecake pans. Put on a sheet pan and bake for 5 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool before adding the cheesecake filling.
Reduce the oven temperature to 325 degrees F.
In bowl of a food processor combine the cheeses with the sugar until mix until completely blended. Add the eggs, 1 at time, incorporating completely after each addition. Add a pinch of salt, the almond extract, and orange zest and blend for 10 seconds. Pour the filling into the prepared pan with crust. Put the springform pan into a roasting pan and pour in enough hot water to come 3/4 of the way up the sides the springform pan. If using a springform pan bake for 1 hour, if using mini cheesecake pans bake until completely set, about 25 to 30 minutes. Carefully remove the roasting pan from the oven and transfer the springform pan from the water bath to the counter and let cool completely before removing the cake from the pan. Slice and serve.

A soaked Southern California and the mud-covered foothills of the San Gabriel Valley will dry out over the next week as skies clear and temperatures rise to and above 80 degrees, according to the National Weather Service.
Scattered showers Sunday, amounting to no more than a tenth of an inch of rain, represented the tail end of the large storm that triggered mudslides and evacuations in the foothill communities of Glendora, Azusa and Monrovia, Meteorologist David Sweet of the NWS office in Oxnard said. The storm dropped about 4 inches of rain on the foothills, and as much as 10 inches along the mountain ridge line.
One Los Angeles County city saw a rainfall record for the date broken during the storm, Sweet said. Lancaster on Friday received 1.67 inches of rain, breaking the existing record of 1.40 inches, set on Feb. 28, 1978.
"We're expecting an end to the rainfall after (Sunday)," Sweet said, "with clear to partly cloudy skies Monday through the rest of the week into Saturday."
"We'll gradually warm Monday through Wednesday," he added. "By Wednesday, we'll have highs in the mid-70s to about 80."
High temperatures will dip just a few degrees Thursday, but rebound for the weekend.
"Friday through Saturday, highs will again be in mid-70s through lower-80s," Sweet said.
Temperatures were expected to follow a similar pattern, though a couple degrees warmer, in the Inland Empire, according to the NWS's San Diego office.
Meanwhile, cleanup efforts continued Sunday throughout mudslide-affected neighborhoods in the foothills of the northern San Gabriel Valley.
"This morning, our crews were out in recovery mode, removing fallen tree limbs, working to reopen roads by clearing rocks and mud and performing maintenance on debris basins and channels," said Los Angeles County Department of Public Works spokesman Kerjon Lee.
As many as 300 county public works employees took part in storm-related efforts over the weekend, he added.
And while the storm won't end Southern California's drought, it didn't hurt.
"The latest stormwater capture figure is 18,000 acre-feet, enough to support the demands of 144,000 people for a year," Lee said.
An icy road in San Bernardino County may have been a factor in a crash that killed a 7-year-old San Bernardino girl and injured her father, uncle and younger sister on Saturday in Forest Falls, according to California Highway Patrol officials.
Marissa Trujillo was standing outside a pickup truck with her family members when another pickup truck struck them, pinning them between the two vehicles, authorities said.
CHP Officer Derek Stillmunks said the driver told CHP investigators his truck began sliding toward the family on the icy road, and he was unable to change direction.
Stillmunks, who is investigating the crash, said the girl's sister and father were doing OK on Sunday. He said the uncle suffered severe injuries and he didn't know the condition of the man.
Staff writer Brenda Gazzar contributed to this report.

Mambas? No. Anyone? Maybe. Intersex is a thing, and Gorean medicine does seem to fuck around with genetics a lot. I wouldn't consider it entirely outside the bounds of possibility for a person who appears female to have male genitalia (it happens in RL, after all).
As to what I'd do - it would depend on how it was being played. Is there a lot of depth to the character, some well-presented internal conflict about having both male and female biological sex presentation in a society that has such strict gender roles? If so, I'd probably roll with it. If it was someone just trying to get their futa freak on, probably not.

Needless to say, Matt was slow, but even after everyone else finished running, Matt still kept running as he had two more laps to complete.

Longtime pharamist Dave Thompson, 66, who helped made sure a major tornado in 2004 not stop customers from getting their prescriptions, has been named Illinois' Outstanding Older Worker for 2007.
When a tornado hit Granville in April 2004 and forced the closing of the only drugstore in Putnam County, longtime owner and pharmacist Dave Thompson immediately knew what had to be done.
Within about four days, he arranged to have a mobile office building set up in the downtown parking lot neighboring his store and equipped it to keep filling prescriptions for customers who had been depending on the Granville Drugstore for more than three decades.
For a year, while insurance issues were being sorted out and the new building was going up, Thompson and store employees worked shoulder to shoulder in the trailer to dispense medications and provide a basic assortment of other drugstore items.
"We worked it out so that people who couldn't get up the steps (of the trailer) could get their prescriptions," Thompson said Wednesday. "They'd call ahead and drive up, and then we'd take it down the steps to them."
That was one of many memories that came to people's minds Wednesday as Thompson, 66, was honored with a "Prime Time Award" as Illinois' Outstanding Older Worker for 2007.
Thompson and his wife, Nancy, had been treated to a trip to Washington, D.C., for a banquet and meetings with officials, and a local reception was held Wednesday at the Putnam County Achievement Services' Senior Center in Standard.
"I was very honored to be nominated. I never expected to get the award," Thompson said.
The awards have been given annually since 1998 to recognize people 65 and over who make valuable contributions to the workplace, said Janice Bramwell, regional director of Experience Works for Illinois and Missouri.
Thompson, a U.S. Marine veteran who was wounded in Vietnam, started the local drugstore in 1970. He had agreed to sell it shortly before the tornado to Marlin Weekley of Metamora, who also owns community drugstores in Metamora, Lacon, and Germantown Hills.
While the sale was delayed by the tornado, the new store that opened about a year later is now owned by Weekley. But Thompson continues to work there at least 20 hours a week, he said, dividing duties with fellow pharmacist Toni Lawley.
"I know that Dave is in the store every day that he's in town," said Weekley, who attributed that partly to the obligation a pharmacist takes on in a small town. "You quickly come to realize it's not really your store. It's the community's store."
Thompson became the third person from Putnam County to win the state award in 10 years. Hennepin public works employee Marion Kuehne received it in 1999, and the 2000 award went to Nadine Reasons, an outreach worker at the senior center.
"The smallest county in the state, and we've had three winners. Isn't that great?" said Darcia Ferrari, director of the center and senior services in the county.
In Washington, D.C., Thompson met the man honored as this year's oldest worker — a 101-year-old maintenance coordinator at an exposition center in Vermont. "I'll never last that long. That'll never happen," Thompson told a laughing crowd Wednesday.
But he was quick to emphasize later he has no plans to "slow down," as one friend asked him.
"I intend to work as long as I physically can. I still enjoy it," he said. "In fact, I think I'd be kind of lost without it."

Mardi Gras Hide N' Seek
It's that time of year again, when the Naked Mohawk-Baby Carrot Jockeys abandon their icing carrots and instead go for a spin on giant, bead-covered donuts. Check it out: this one's even on a pool-float boogie board:
Somebody get this kid a tiny drink with an even tinier umbrella, STAT.
Originally these guys - who, did I mention? Are supposed to represent the baby Jesus - were hidden away *inside* the donut, so that one lucky party-goer would end up with a chipped tooth and the dubious honor of having to bring next year's donut, thereby ensuring the continuous cycle of petty revenge.
Somewhere beneath that sticky surface lurks a tiny choking hazard. WHO WILL FIND IT FIRST?
This also led to some truly spectacular warning labels:
And yet they still ate at least half of it. THE MONSTERS.
Now, however, thanks to a bunch of downer lawyer types and other spoil sports who can't digest plastic, bakers are forced to "hide" the babies in plain sight:
"SHHHH. Just be cool, man. BE COOL."
Is that...double-stick tape?
I won't tell him we can still see him if you won't.
Of course, since the whole tradition centered around the surprise of finding the plastic baby, I'm not sure what the point is of even including one now. Unless it's just to pose it in a bunch of funny ways, of course:
"GET ME OUT OF HERE!" [slowly slides down glass]
Mondays. Am I right?
Happily, though, at least one bakery has proposed a new subsitute for the plastic baby, based on the following logic: The baby is meant to represent the baby Jesus, right? And we celebrate Jesus' resurrection on Easter, right? And what ELSE do we eat at Easter?
That's right, ladies and gentlemen: Preeeeeesenting! The Peeps King Cake!!

KABUL, Afghanistan — Amid screams of "Suicide bomber! Suicide bomber!" an insurgent detonated his vest of explosives Saturday, killing at least four people at a sports field in northwest Afghanistan.
It was the latest in a spate of attacks that have hit nearly every corner of the country in recent weeks.
The suicide bomber struck a game of buzkashi, a traditional Afghan sport in which players on horseback wrangle for a headless goat carcass, said Abdul Haq Shafiq, governor of Faryab province.
Castaway's parents thought they would never see him again
The father of Pacific castaway Jose Salvador Alvarenga said he was told his long-lost son vanished on a fishing trip but he didn't have the heart to break the news to his ailing wife.
- Scotland legalizes same-sex marriage
- Weapons deal strengthened Assad: US intel chief
- Outcry over the fate of Sochi's stray dogs
- Olympic construction leaves Sochi residents in the cold
- Castaway's parents thought they would never see him again
"The people and the police became suspicious of the bomber," Shafiq said. "People started running. Everyone was scared. The people called out, 'Suicide bomber! Suicide bomber!' and then the bomber blew himself up."
Besides the dead, 19 people were wounded, said Shafiq. About 2,000 people were at the event when the blast occurred.
In the east, nine people were killed just outside Khost city when their vehicle hit a roadside bomb, according to the Afghan Interior Minister. The explosion killed three men, two women and four children in the insurgent-ridden Lakan area of the capital of Khost province.
A roadside bomb also killed nine people Saturday near the eastern city of Khost.
The three men, two women and four children were killed just outside the city when their vehicle hit a roadside bomb in the insurgent-ridden Lakan area, according to the Afghan Interior Ministry.

Lordly Langurs
There was once a creature that could trap the moon between his jaws, carry the sun in his armpit, transport mountains in his hand, change his size and shape at will, slay dragons, melt rocks with his songs of devotion, and write the finest poetry. This simian god—the original superhero, Hanuman—was worshipped for his strength and agility, his mental brilliance and talent, his total discipline and devotion, his humility and celibacy, and his ability to triumph over the evils of ego. Today, his namesakes, the Hanuman langurs, are having a hard time living up to this image.
For thousands upon thousands of years,Hanuman langurs have shared the Indian subcontinent with an ever-expanding human population by adapting to such diverse habitats as towns, cities, temples, ancient ruins, croplands, and many types of wet and dry forests. There are, however, limits to how much and how fast an animal can adapt. There are also limits to how much langur-caused devastation—to crops and produce, for example—people will tolerate. Someday, these black-faced, gray-haired distant relatives of ours may reach that limit.
Langur monkeys, like many other species of wildlife, are being threatened by the spread and rapid growth of the human population, and some people are beginning to exchange their ancient beliefs for modern economic practices.Unfortunately, the image of Hanuman the god, the dispeller of all problems, is now being replaced by Hanuman the monkey, the harbinger of problems.

Dillon pays Wray four months severance
Former Dillon town manager Joe Wray received four months severance and four months of retirement benefits following his resignation last month from the town of Dillon.
The two benefits together total more than $40,000 gross, according to a separation agreement approved during a special meeting earlier this month of the Dillon Town Council. Wray also received more than $11,000 for work performed and unused vacation days earned up until his last day, which officially was March 1.
Dillon Mayor Ron Holland said Wray received the package in accordance with his employment contract. According to that contract, Wray was guaranteed three months of pay upon his termination of employment. Town council voted to add a fourth month of benefits.
"He's been with us for seven years, first as a police chief and for a little while as town manager," Holland said. "He was a good employee and council felt like adding a month's severance was the right thing to do."
Wray was hired to the town manager position in April 2012 after serving five years as Dillon's chief of police. It is still not known what motivated his decision to step down.
Wray's resignation came about a week after former interim Dillon police chief Brian Brady resigned amid a 5th Judicial District Attorney's Office perjury investigation. Brady elected through his attorney to keep the details of his separation agreement confidential. However, acting Dillon town manager Carri McDonnell said the town did not pay any benefits to Brady following his resignation.
Brady joined the Dillon Police Department in April 2008. He was previously employed by the Broward County Sheriff's Office in Florida.

Bismuth orthovanadate is harmful if swallowed. It is irritating to the eyes, respiratory system, and skin. Exposure may cause conjunctivitis, rhinitis, and reversible irritation of the respiratory tract. More severe cases may cause bronchitis, bronchospasms, and asthma like disease. It may cause polycythemia, red blood cell destruction and anemia, albuminuria and hematuria, gastrointestinal disorders, nervous complaints, and severe cough. However, bismuth vanadium oxide is completely insoluble in water. This limits absorption and biological activity. In waterbased paints, it must be suspended in a binder vehicle. Because of low absorption, such clinical symptons are primarily limited to cases of long-term occupational exposure.
Bismuth orthovanadate occurs naturally in several minerals. Although it was synthesized in the 1920s, it was not developed as a commercial pigment until the 1970s.

The Rise of Cisco UCS and the Cisco Services Data Center Transformation Experience
March 2009 was an exciting time for both for Cisco and for me personally. Cisco launched the revolutionary Unified Computing System, with many observers across the industry doubting if we'd stay the course (and if we're honest, some truly misplaced derision – I wonder who is on Planet Zircon now!). And I joined the Cisco Data Center Services team from the Cisco R&D organization! So with the recent third generation launch of Cisco UCS, described very well by my colleague Todd Brannon, I thought it would be a good time to reflect on our data center services portfolio around that time, and where we are now. My previous blogs chronicle part of this journey, however I have to say, the direct comparison I draw here I personally think shows that we have indeed brought a new transformational experience to the data center for our customers. And I'd like to give you my personal recollections on how and what I found out about Cisco's approach to shaking the incumbents' lack of innovation in the blade server market.
In January 2009, a few months prior to the launch of Cisco UCS, I'd (as you would expect) no idea that we were about to launch a sustained assault on the blade server market. I was working in the Cisco R&D team for network management, focused on the server provider market. I had decided it was time to do something new, and I applied internally for a position in the Advanced Services Product Management team, focused on data center. I previously worked in the IT function of Sun Microsystems in Scotland, which was my data center background (and a fabulous place to work) – however that was a while back (1990-1994 – yes I'm that old! 🙂 ) and my knowledge of data center challenges was dated. I started to look around, and I couldn't believe what I had been missing in the data center. Every industry magazine I picked up to prepare for the interview, every web site I looked at, talked about the challenges of the data center. Power requirements. Green issues. Sprawl issues. Domination of the data center market by incumbents who were doing "more of the same" (and in many case still are!). What had I been missing while working in service provider?! I was sold and jumped into the new role, working with a whole bunch of fantastic people in the process, in many parts of the world.
I heard about "Project California" (Cisco's original project codename for UCS). And to be honest I was shocked to see some of the industry rumours already out there via Google search. I personally was quite surprised – in a way – that we were about to enter the blade server market. However I knew from working in Cisco since 2000, that this is what we do in Cisco. Many industry observers (still) think that Cisco doesn't innovate internally, but uses acquisitions to achieve innovation. I joined Cisco via an acquisition in 2000. So I knew, from 9 years as part of Cisco R&D, that such observations were completely off-base – sure we acquire for innovation, but that's only part of the strategy. I knew that Cisco invests substantially in internal innovation (I'd see this every day in my time in Cisco's R&D organization). And I knew from experience that we were in this for the long haul- and still are. So when May 2011, IDC reported that Cisco held the number 3 market share position (and number 2 position in the US), I reflected again: this is just what we do in Cisco.
So back to the Cisco Data Center Service capabilities. At the start of 2009, our data center services portfolio was structured around our core strengths in data center networking, and nascent areas of data center virtualization and data center facilities design, as shown in the diagram below. Industry observers – perhaps understandably – questioned our launch of Cisco UCS and data center focus in terms of whether we could compete with the services capabilities of some of the incumbents, whether we had both breadth and depth of capability and talent. They understood that professional services were a key part of a data center player's offering. In Cisco, we fully understood this too. Quite a few of the observers back in March 2009 doubted our resolve in this market. Too many under-estimated what Cisco can do when we enter a new market.
So as we do in Cisco, we focused on the longer term and the market transition. We worked with pioneering customers across the globe as we built our services capabilities. We replicated and scaled globally. We helped many customers transform their data center. We helped many customers introduce new cloud-based services, helping to transform their business opportunities and competitiveness. I reflected again: this is just what we do in Cisco.
In the meantime, our competitors told you myths about the "good enough network". And over-promised yet under-delivered. And blustered more about Cisco UCS and their not-quite-good-enough networking.
Fast forward now to 2012.
As you can see from the diagram above, since 2009, we've added many new globally-scaled service capabilities to our portfolio. We've enabled the deployment of Cisco UCS in many of our customers. We are one of the leading professional services providers for cloud (more on this in a future blog). We've combined internal innovation and capability development with close partner relationships. We use close partnerships with leading specialists to jointly deliver Data Center Facilities Design and Application Migration Services.
And we've continued to deliver customers a data center transformation experience. We helped theTatts Group in Australia reduce networking outages by 80%, while gaining 10 times in core networking capacity (enabling business growth) via a data center consolidation program. We helped Savvis set the bar for enterprise cloud, by creating a new class of enterprise cloud services. We enabled Carecore to progress their vision for evidence-based medicine with the VCE Vblock platform. At EMC, we transformed the end user experience with the Oracle E-Business suite, replacing a legacy compute platform with Cisco UCS. We transformed the business model at Italian integrator TSF, where Cisco UCS was the platform for their cloud transformation (a personal favourite of mine since it was the first Cisco UCS deployment in Europe, and the first I was involved in, not long after joining the Cisco Data Center Services team in Europe). We primed and delivered a substantial data center migration project for Molina Healthcare, reducing network application traffic by 80% in the process. Who says all we want to do is sell more networking gear? At Cisco, it's about customer satisfaction.
I could go on. Suffice to say, this is just what we do in Cisco. It's been an exciting 3 years in Cisco Data Center Services. It's been an exciting time for me personally, as I hope I've conveyed here. If this is what we've done in the first 3 years, what does the future hold?! Get in touch and we can help you with the Cisco Services Data Center Transformation Experience.

Before I get to today's recipe, Mirch ka Salan with Peshawari Naan, here's a small rant.
I am not a Bolly-watcher, by any means. I am not hungry for the latest news on whichever middle-aged "hero" and painfully young "heroine" is dominating India's movie industry. I couldn't care less who's going out with whom. And I don't remember the last time I watched a Hindi movie I could half like (trust me, I've tried for nostalgia's sake).
But our times make it hard to dodge information, even when it is information we'd rather not have. Recently, I started to see a common thread in messages posted on Facebook and on some Indian news websites: apparently, a number of top Indian actresses are gaining weight. And not losing it, or at least not losing it as fast as their fans want them to.
Aishwarya Rai, Lara Dutta, Vidya Balan, Kareena Kapoor… the reports listed the who's who of India's filmdom. And as much as I didn't want to, I had to take notice: after all, weight is a loaded topic in our culture and one that always evokes a visceral reaction. What really struck me was how vicious some of these reports were in a country where a little flab around the middle was once considered a welcome sign of prosperity. In fact, all the way through the 1990s and early 2000s, actresses like Sridevi, Rekha, Juhi Chawla and Madhuri Dixit made curves fashionable and beautiful.
I understand the value of fitness and I am not championing obesity. It is true that carrying too much weight can be an indicator of health problems as well as lead to a whole slew of diseases. And it is also true that countries like India are getting fatter faster than ever before and rates of diabetes and heart disease are rising correspondingly.
But none of these actresses who are being reviled for gaining weight are obese– not even remotely. They look like most women do and they still look perfectly beautiful. A couple of them gained a few pounds during pregnancies. One said she was in a happy relationship. It didn't sound like they were at all obsessing with their weight; on the contrary, they sounded blissfully happy. It was just everyone else that was outraged.
Now I am not going to go where others would after this rant and beat up on the media because, let's face it, the media today has been reduced to a barometer of what's trending on Google and Yahoo news. And to a large extent these actresses and the industry they work in are to blame for setting these impossible standards in the first place that they themselves are now not living up to.
Even so, I think it's refreshing to see that these actresses are, for a change, not obsessing with their weight — even if it is a temporary phase– because they are riding another high: the high of life. It offers us a welcome respite from that impossible obsession with impossibly thin, and reminds us that there's something more important in life than being a size zero:
Being completely, and perfectly, and incandescently happy.
Now for the recipe that's going to make you decadently happy without adding inches to your waistline: my Mirch ka Salan with a whole-wheat Peshawari Naan.
Mirch ka Salan is a popular dish from the city of Hyderabad in Andhra Pradesh, a south Indian state known for its spicy foods. The name translates approximately to a sauce of chilies, and if that makes your jaw drop and your mouth run dry with fear, pour yourself a glass of water and hear me out.
The sauce here is made of "sweet ingredients" like coconuts and peanuts and sesame seeds and they add a rich nuttiness that becomes a perfect base for the chilies. In India, the chillies used are long, skinny, hot green peppers, but because neither you (I presume) nor I could deal with that much excitement, I used a mix of green bell peppers and poblano peppers which both add great flavor without adding incredible heat. If you are braver, feel free to substitute the poblanos with a spicier chili like jalapeno or even serrano.
To scoop up the spicy-sweet sauce of the Mirch ka Salan I made a whole-wheat Peshawari Naan. A Peshawari Naan is a puffy flatbread that traces its origins into Pakistan and north India. It's a little more special than your average, everyday naan because it is studded with nuts and dry fruits, making it the perfect complement to the spicy saalan.
I made the naan half whole-wheat– I have an all-whole-wheat naan on this blog that I posted a while back, but I find that using part whole-wheat and part white flour gives a more authentic texture and look while still being healthy.
Here are the recipes for Mirch ka Salan and Peshwari Naan. Enjoy, all!
Mirch Ka Salan
- 1 very large green bell pepper or 2 small ones , deseeded and cut into long strips
- 2 large poblano peppers (substitute with a hotter chili if you want to), deseeded and cut into long strips
- 1 large onion , sliced thinly
- 1/2 cup shredded coconut
- 1/4 cup peanuts
- 2 tbsp sesame seeds
- 4 green cardamom pods
- 4 cloves
- 1 1- inch piece of cinnamon
- 1 tbsp coriander powder
- 1 tsp cumin powder
- 1 tsp black mustard seeds
- 1 tsp cumin seeds
- 1/2 tsp red chili powder
- 1/2 tsp turmeric
- 10-12 curry leaves
- 1/2- inch ball of tamarind
- 1 1/2 tsp vegetable oil
- Juice of 1 lemon
- Salt to taste
- 1/4 cup chopped coriander leaves
- Heat 1/2 tsp of oil in a saucepan and add the peanuts and sesame seeds. Toast them until they just begin to change color, remove to a plate to cool, and add the coconut to the saucepan.
- Roast the coconut until it turns very lightly golden. Coconut burns very fast, so don't walk away from it and stir constantly.
- Place the sesame seeds, peanuts and coconut in a blender along with the tamarind (make sure there are no seeds) and process with some water to a very smooth paste.
- Heat the remaining oil. Add the cardamom, cloves and cinnamon and saute until they just start to brown and become fragrant. Add the cumin and mustard seeds and when they sputter, add the onions.
- Saute the onions for a few minutes or until they start to brown at the edges. Then add the sliced peppers and stir fry until they start to brown slightly.
- Add the turmeric, chili powder, coriander powder and cumin powder and stir until they are evenly distributed and roasted, about a minute or two.
- Add the peanut-coconut-sesame paste and mix it well. Add some water if the sauce is too thick. Bring the sauce to a boil, then lower the heat to a simmer and cook until the peppers are tender but still have a bite to them.
- Stir in the lemon juice, garnish with coriander, and serve hot with the Peshawari Naan (recipe follows).
Peshawari Naan
- 1 cups whole-wheat flour
- 1 cup bread flour
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 1/4 tsp active dry yeast
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil
- 3/4 cup soymilk or other nondairy milk
- Water as needed
- 1/2 cup finely chopped dry fruits and nuts (I used apricots and cashews but you could use pistachios, walnuts, raisins, figs...take your pick.)
- In the bowl of a stand mixer or in a regular bowl, place all the ingredients and knead, using as much water as needed to make a soft, smooth dough.
- Continue kneading for about 10 minutes on low speed if using a stand mixer, or a little longer if doing this by hand.
- Place in an oiled bowl, turning once to make sure the dough is coated in oil. Cover with a cloth napkin and set aside in a warm place to rise for about 2 hours. (In winter, I leave the bowl in my unheated oven with the light on)
- After 2 hours, punch down the dough and divide into four pieces. Let the dough rest for another 10 minutes, covered.
- Preheat the oven to 475 degrees and place a baking stone or unglazed tiles on the middle rack.
- Place a bowl of water next to you, and place a ball of dough on a lightly floured surface.
- Dip your fingers into the bowl of water and press into the dough with all fingers, making little bumps and indentations on the surface even as you stretch and shape it. I shaped my naans into rounds this time, but you could shape them into the more traditional teardrops or just about any shape you wish.
- Sprinkle the surface with a fourth of your nuts and dry fruits and press them in so they sink into the surface.
- Carefully, taking care not to burn your fingers, place the naan directly on the hot baking stone. Place as many of the naans as you can on the stone, taking care that you leave at least an inch of space between them. They should not overlap.
- Bake about 6-7 minutes or until the naans are all puffy and the top and bottom are a pale gold-brown.
- Remove with tongs and serve hot.
Next, try this Squash and Tempeh Stuffed Naan, or this Grilled Naan.

Denver Broncos cornerback Tracy Porter is listed as questionable for Sunday night's game against the New Orleans Saints, but sources tell NFL.com and NFL Network's Michelle Beisner that Porter is unlikely to play.
Porter was at the Broncos' facility for Saturday's walkthrough and reiterated his desire to play against his former team. Beisner reported that the consensus inside the building is that doctors will err on the side of caution.
"Everything looked normal," Porter told Beisner, "but they still want to make sure I'm 100 percent before they put me on the field."
Porter didn't play against the San Diego Chargers on Oct. 15 after experiencing light-headedness and a racing heart -- symptoms similar to the ones he felt before suffering a seizure in August. Porter did not practice with the team on Friday.
Porter said doctors haven't been able to pinpoint why he suffered the seizure, though they're confident it won't happen again.
"You want to know the cause but if they can't pinpoint it, they say that's a good thing and it's not likely you're going to have any more," he said. "With them saying that, it takes a little stress off my chest. That makes me feel a little better."
Chris Harris is in line to take Porter's place in the lineup. Beisner reports that Harris will start at right corner, with Tony Carter playing as the third cornerback in the nickel package.

Lawyers gird for possible recounts
As the frenzied race for the White House comes down to the wire, tens of thousands of partisan lawyers are mobilizing under the radar in battleground states, all steeling for one terrifying scenario: a recount that could decide the presidency.
Their objective is to head off a repeat of the Gore-Bush fiasco 12 years ago in which Al Gore won the popular vote and George W. Bush captured the Electoral College and ultimately the presidency.
Story Continued Below
"They are all bracing for Florida in 2000 — everyone wants to be in position so as not to be disadvantaged by a court decision in a tie," says Steve Schmidt, who ran John McCain's 2008 campaign. "This [is] a preventive strategy. They are largely in search of problems that don't yet exist. It's like the Cold War and nuclear capability. You want to have what the other guy has. "
And that adds up to [a] lot. At least 5,000 lawyers in Florida alone have volunteered to serve as poll watchers for the Obama campaign "voter protection" program on Election Day — and that's just the Democrats.
There is similar intensity on the Republican side.
"Let's be clear — there are very large numbers of lawyers already deployed — and ready to be deployed with hair-trigger swiftness," says Robert Kelner, a GOP election law expert who worked on the Florida recount. "The slightest discrepancy or hint that legitimate voting is being impeded anywhere will prompt an overwhelming legal show of force. Since the Gore-Bush recount, everyone is on very high alert."
Neither Democrats nor Republicans would divulge specifics about their plans in the event of a recount. Polls show very tight races in key states like Virginia, Colorado and Ohio, and the campaigns privately acknowledge they will be focused on close states.
In the event an automatic recount is triggered — Obama top election lawyer Robert Bauer and Romney chief counsel Benjamin Ginsberg, both of whom were involved in Florida 2000, will leap into action. Bauer did not respond to several requests for comment, and Ginsberg referred Politico to the campaign.
"We have all the resources and infrastructure we need for any potential dispute or recount," maintains a senior Romney campaign aide.
The Republican National Committee has also formed an account to fund legal challenges in the event of a recount, said communications director Sean Spicer. The National Republican Congressional Committee is also training lawyers to be Election Day observers.
A Republican official admitted that in prior elections, Democrats were more equipped to identify their voters in recounts. This year, Republicans have laid the groundwork in advance, the official said.
