Yoga-star Shiva Rea has released a new DVD geared especially for yogi/nis who wish to have a daily practice but don't have much time. Seven 20-minute sequences can be practiced by themselves or can be stringed together and combined with two different meditations, a shorter core or forward bend sequence, and a guided shavasana. There are three options for choosing your practice on this DVD: choose a single sequence, choose a preset practice (2-4 sequences combined), or for the ultimate customization use the yoga matrix to mix together specific practices of your choosing. These options give an great amount of customization for the length, intensity and type of yoga poses for your practice.
This DVD will be most appropriate for experienced beginners and intermediate practitioners due to the complexity and intensity of the majority of the sequences as well as due to the occasional lack of detail in the verbal cues. With some experience you will be able to choose the sections and sequences that fit your level of ability, but it will be helpful to know that the Fire, Fire-Water and Heart-Air practices are the most advanced and challenging on the DVD. Shiva Rea offers a lot of new material on this DVD and the creative variations, unusual poses, and different ways to flow in and out of the poses makes these sequences fun and engaging.

Definition from Nolo's Plain-English Law Dictionary
The most common basis for granting a no-fault divorce. As a practical matter, courts seldom, if ever, inquire into what the differences actually are, and routinely grant a divorce as long as the party seeking the divorce says the couple has irreconcilable differences. Compare: incompatibility, irremediable or irretrievable breakdown

Through a stroke of good luck and perfect timing, Polly and Terry Smith became residents of Federal Hill six years ago.
"We were wandering around town one day and saw the 'For Sale' sign on this house," Polly Smith remembered of the spacious, end-of-group home she now shares with her husband, Terry. "I lived in other cities before, and I have always loved city life."
Just as the couple thought there was no way they could afford the three-story brick home, they were approached by an interested party prepared to buy their Dulaney Valley Colonial home on Loch Raven Reservoir should they ever wish to sell. The deal was negotiated in one day. The Smiths received their asking price — an amount higher than the asking price for the Federal Hill property — and the couple and their youngest two girls, both students at the time, happily took up city living.
While the previously renovated home was in fairly good condition, there were some interior structural and design problems. Polly Smith — who owns Meadow Mill Draperies, a company that sells wholesale to the trade and also decorates movie sets filmed in Baltimore — was thrilled to take on the challenges.
"I added shutters to the windows and changed all of the lighting," she noted. "And I extended the kitchen island."
She also created a neutral and warm ambience to each of the home's many rooms through use of wall colors and custom draperies. Lovely and interesting artwork and memorabilia fill each room, creating a home that reflects its owners' taste and lifestyle.
The three-story structure boasts a total of 5,670 square feet of living space. Each room is spacious, with high ceilings typically found in the larger homes of the late 1800s. Three fireplaces provide heat and cheer.
The side entrance, which features an ornately carved pediment over the front door, opens onto a slate-floored foyer and a traditional staircase with spindle balusters. A formal living room is three steps down from the foyer.
Here, Polly Smith has created cozy warmth with faux-painted burnt-orange "suede" walls, sisal carpeting and traditional furniture. A chenille sofa and love seat in light beige contrast with the walls as does the marble fireplace with a white carved wood mantel and surround.
Two large antique samplers in their original wood and gilt frames bear the dates of 1824 and 1826 along with the names of the young women who stitched them almost two centuries ago. These family heirlooms, as well as a full-length portrait of a young woman in a fantasy-like, bucolic setting painted by local artist Nancy Scheinman, are standouts in the room. So too are a pair of recessed openings — once a storefront — that have been treated to silk draperies in shades of orange, brown and beige that frame arches where the windows nestle, and are covered in woven grass shades.
Woven grass wallpaper in a muted shade of gray cover the walls of the dining room on the other side of the foyer. An Amish-made, 4-by-8-foot cherry dining table takes center stage.
A muted shade of pea green covers the walls of the family room on which colorful Mexican masks hang along with framed portraits of Polly Smith's great-grandparents. The neutral decor includes a beige corduroy-covered sofa and a second fireplace of brick with a rugged chunk of wood for its mantel.
The adjacent kitchen features pine cabinets and marble countertops with a marble farmhouse sink. Two large Viking stoves and stainless-steel appliances are tucked into the walls. A wrought-iron light fixture with shaded candles hangs above the island below.
Framed movie posters hang in the hall on the second floor, paying tribute to the sets Polly Smith and her staff decorated when films such as "Sleepless in Seattle" and "Home for the Holidays" were shot in Baltimore.
Off the hall, the family library has pecan paneling on the walls and wooden blinds with raised Roman shades in toile fabrics that match the upholstery of one of the easy chairs. The home's third fireplace of green marble with a carved pecan mantel sits between built-in bookshelves that also display family pictures and a collection of Madame Alexander dolls.
"One of my favorite things about this house is the view from the windows of my office," said Terry Smith, a self-employed accountant broker. "I look out at [Federal] Hill and see all the activity, [such as] people walking their dogs and children playing."
His is an office most people only dream of, with a desk facing two walls of windows.
He credits his wife with the transformation of their home through her decorative touches, adding, "She said straight out, 'This is the house I'm going to live in, and this is how it's going to look.' "

This may be difficult to believe, but Dina Lohan was arrested Thursday night on suspicion of drunken driving in Long Island, N.Y.
According to TMZ, police say Lohan's blood alcohol was more than twice the legal limit when she was arrested around 11 p.m. by New York State Police on the Northern State Parkway. She was allegedly going 77 miles per hour in a 55 zone while in her white BMW.
The website reported that the 50-year-old Lohan's blood-alcohol level registered at .20 — more than twice the legal limit of .08.
Officials told the website "Lohan made an allegation that she was injured during the course of the arrest," but after medical personnel responded to the scene and determined she was fine, Lohan "recanted her claim."
Maybe her feelings were hurt if police didn't recognize how important she is, or something.
Lohan was reportedly booked on two counts of driving while intoxicated and one count of speeding. She was later released to a sober third party who was not her daughter Lindsay, according to TMZ.

These words will be part of our lexicon for decades to come, forever putting to mind this terrible day. Our hearts will break again and again in the coming days as victims share their stories. Families will recount the tales of their lost children, the altered course of their lives. We will be grateful for the bravery of teachers who tried to protect their students. There should be no limit to compassion and sympathy for the families who lost so much today.
We have all witnessed too many incidents of spectacularly senseless violence, so we all know what comes next. The inevitable debate over gun control, school protections, and legislation. The logical reaction to something so irrational, arational, completely divorced from any kind of ration, is to figure out how we can make it stop and how we can send our children into the world every day. I understand that debate; I understand that people on both sides of it want to protect themselves.
As Brother Jon stated, perhaps now is not the time to have that debate; it is time for mourning. However, it is already out there, on Facebook, Twitter, and I am sure in thousands of private conversations. I believe it to be a means of feeling like we would have had some control over the situation. If only gun control laws were tighter, if only everyone carried guns; no matter what side of the fence you fall on, you believe that if only things were slightly different you could control the outcome if something like this happened in your corner of the world.
But what really caused this man to do such a terrible thing? There is no justification for his actions, nothing redeemable, and no way to really prevent it, as scary as that is. Perhaps our only method of shaping the future lies in addressing the root causes of violence in this world, rather than the tools used to carry it out. You don't pick up a gun to harm someone if you're not sick in your heart and your head.
*I had originally named Ryan Lanza, as it was reported this morning.

Two times the 'Toy,' with 3-D pop
Converting Pixar's history-changing cartoons "Toy Story" and "Toy Story 2" into 3-D and pairing them in theaters for a double feature reminds us how very good these movies were and remain, how great the computer animation and how witty and sentimental the scripts.
Their two-week stay in America's theaters also gets the word out to folks that, yes, Disney and Pixar's "Toy Story 3" (Andy goes to college, and the toys are donated to a day care where "No toy gets left behind") is coming out next June.
The movies look fabulous. Remember when the toy soldiers re-con Andy's birthday party to report on what new toys he's been given? The walkie-talkie they tote downstairs practically jabs you in the eye. When Woody and Buzz are riding that radio-controlled car with a firecracker strapped to Buzz's back, Woody's open-mouthed high-G look of horror is in your lap.
But that's also the problem with this re-issue: "remembering." Back in its golden age, Disney puts its classic cartoons back in theaters every few years, letting new generations discover "Lady and the Tramp," "Pinocchio," "One Hundred and One Dalmatians" and "The Jungle Book" for themselves. In the age of video, that special-experience novelty is gone. When the kids know the words to "You've Got a Friend in Me," when parents know every line - blasting from the DVD player in the back seat - what's the point?
And what child under the age of 10 is going to sit still in a movie theater for three hours?
Fans, however, will want to check this out just for the delightful wrapping Pixar put on the pairing. They created a new intro, "Maximizing your 'Toy Story' double-feature experience," and there's an intermission featurette that shows original test footage of Woody and Buzz and other chunks of "Toy Story" trivia.
Lastly, they've changed the credits to reflect those behind the camera and acting in front of the microphone who have died in the 14 years since "Toy Story" came out.
The great voice acting, the visual puns (Virtual Realty will sell your house), the one-liners - Buzz Lightyear is called "Mr. Light Beer" at one point - all added up to an animation game changer, back in 1995. The 3-D depth of field - taking us into this toy world - is impressive.
But three hours of re-watching movies you probably already have at home, even in 3-D? That's almost a "Toy" too far.
'Toy Story" and "Toy Story 2"
Four stars
VOICES OF: Tom Hanks, Tim Allen, Wallace Shawn, Joan Cusack, Don Rickles
RUNNING TIME: 3 hours

DKH Advisors necesitaba un nuevo diseño de página web y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 36 diseños de 9 diseñadores freelance.
Our company, Glymetrix, has built an innovative system to help people with diabetes improve self-management of their disease. The system uses a fun and engaging approach called the "Game Zone" at http://www.diabetesgame.com. In the Game Zone, players can access games, information, and social networking for support to take better care of themselves. We chose games because they are a more enjoyable way to handle diabetes management than books, graphs, or lectures.
Our target audience is 45 years old and older with Type II diabetes which can be effectively managed through personal behavior, especially diet and physical activity. They are male and female and all ethnic groups. A great deal information is published about what diabetics should do. There are many websites that provide information and, yet, there are still many people who don't do what they should because it is tedious, boring, constant, and, basically, not a lot of fun. We have picked casual games that are intuitively easy for them to understand and many have a retro feel. These include quiz, word, card, puzzle, and strategy games.
We want a new logo design that will provide an approachable and exciting identity to a serious subject like diabetes. See the attached new website layout to get an idea of the look and feel we are expecting. Clean, professional but fun and approachable.
The design should appeal to mature adults, but be fun and engaging. Our current websites are very inadequate in doing this. We have two sites with different identities – a corporate site and a game site. You can view these at http://www.glymetrix.com and http://www.diabetesgame.com. These sites will be combined in the new web design. You will see from the attachment how this will work in the new website layout. We are open to creative thinking about everything – color scheme, fonts, graphics, etc.
We are working with a web design and marketing company that is developing the page layout, user interface, and backend integration but is not doing the graphic design.
You should go to the diabetesgame.com website and play the current quiz game. We can also send you a link to the solitaire game that is under development when you contact us directly.
In many cases it is easier to tell you what we don't want – many game sites have kids' games, avatars or cartoon characters like http://www.casualcafe.com, http://www.fitbrain.com . Many medical information sites are clinical or scream diabetes - http://www.diabetes.org One that is somewhat OK is http://www.nonoba.com

House OKs 20-week abortion ban bill
The House Tuesday passed a bill that would ban most abortions nationwide after 20 weeks. The most far-reaching abortion legislation in the House in a decade, it was passed 228-196, mostly along party lines.
The vote is largely symbolic: The bill will be dead on arrival in the Senate. And the White House has already threatened to veto the "fetal pain" legislation, which is based on the controversial assertion that a fetus can feel pain at that stage of development.
Story Continued Below
But Rep. Trent Franks (R-Ariz.), the bill's sponsor, didn't find that discouraging. He pointed to the most recent time Congress passed an abortion bill of this scope, the Partial-Birth Abortion Ban Act of 2003. That bill fell short and faced court battles before it finally became law.
"I think if you hearken back to partial-birth abortion … everybody said you know, it's not constitutional, it can't pass, it can't go anywhere, and it took time to do that and it even had to succeed a presidential veto. But it eventually did," Franks said.
In pushing the legislation forward, Republicans are issuing a rallying cry for their base still fighting Roe v. Wade 40 years later. Similar fetal pain bills have passed in nearly a dozen states, although some have been challenged in court.
Anti-abortion Republicans are hoping to capitalize on public outrage about Philadelphia abortion doctor Kermit Gosnell's murder trial, which captured national headlines. Franks's original bill was crafted to outlaw late term abortions in Washington, D.C., and it failed in the House last year under a procedure that needed a two-thirds vote for passage. But the Gosnell verdict sparked outrage and reinvigorated activists, and a few days after the conviction Franks broadened his legislation to apply nationwide.
Opposing it, Democrats supporting abortion rights are stoking liberal anger over the "war on women" and chiding the GOP for spending its time on a divisive social agenda instead of focusing on jobs. They said the bill is unconstitutional and distracting.
"Now I thought we had established this last fall with the election. Americans are tired of Congress taking up extreme and divisive legislation targeted at women's health," Rep. Diana DeGette (D-Colo.) said at a press conference. "Unfortunately, many of our Republican colleagues didn't seem to have gotten that message last November."
Rep. Joe Crowley (D-N.Y.) told reporters, "It's a bill that will go absolutely nowhere."
"It's another opportunity for us to do less than we ought to be doing for the American people. We really ought to be talking job creation, getting our economy going and finding a solution to student loan interest rates that will double," he said.
Democrats also pointed out that the Republican members who voted to pass the bill out of committee were all men, and sought to connect Franks's comment last week that "the incidence of rape resulting in pregnancy are very low" with former Rep. Todd Akin's remark last year about "legitimate rape," which sunk his Missouri Senate bid and reverberated through the 2012 campaign.

Well, thanks to the Tennessee Titans uncanny ability to completely dominate a game, but still not score any points and lose it, the Ravens don't find themselves in first place this morning.
The preview train rolls on. For the final four weeks of the season, when we all hope the Ravens are fighting for playoff seeding, things don't look so easy. We have two NFC North foes at home, and road trips to Pittsburgh and the west coast.
See Weeks 1-4 here, Weeks 5-9 here, and Weeks 10-13 here.
Of course, all of these predictions are based on rosters, teams, etc., as they stand today. Injuries, suspensions, and whatever else could easily drastically change my feeling about any or all of the games. This is for fun more than anything else, so don't go calling your bookie on my recommendations.
Week 14 – vs. Lions
Baltimore once again welcome home native son Jim Schwartz. However, Schwartzy's team this time around isn't quite the squad he brought to B'More last season. As the new head coach of the Detroit (0-16) Lions, the days of #1 playoff seeds are but a distant memory for Jimbo. The Lions will be playing for nothing but pride and another high draft pick by the time they visit M&T. Ravens roll.
Chance of victory: 90%
Week 15 – vs. Bears
Chicago is another team that many pundits are high on in 2009. With the acquisition of Jay Cutler at QB, da Bears have a competent signal-caller for the first time since FDR was in office (approximate). Their defense isn't what it was a few years ago, but everyone seems willing to overlook that. Running back Matt Forte is one of the top young rushers in the NFL, and if Cutler and his rag-tag group of receivers can develop some chemistry by the time they come to Baltimore, this could be a very tight game.
Chance of victory: 60%
Week 16 – @. Pittsburgh
A late season visit to the three rivers, in what will most likely be another crucial battle for the AFC North crown and playoff seeding. The Ravens could have gotten this game out of the way last night, but I still have no problem with them asking out of it. The Ravens have played prime time games in Pittsburgh three of the past 4 seasons, and enough was getting to be enough (especially considering the way they play under the lights, under the previous regime anyway).
Start loading up on the antacids now.
Chance of victory: 35%
Week 17 – @ Oakland
Sure, it looks like a cakewalk now, sitting here on the eve of Week 1. But are you really comfortable with the Ravens having to go across the country and play on the west coast if a playoff berth is on the line?
Yeah, me neither.
By season's end, the Raiders COULD be preparing for another Top-5 draft pick, the entire coaching staff in MIGHT consist of Tom Cable and nobody else, and Al Davis MAY have returned to his natural habitat in the chilly waters of Loch Ness.
Slightly less likely though, is that they have come to at least resemble an NFL team, and would love nothing more than to knock the Ravens out of the playoffs as some payback for embarrassing them several times over the past few seasons.
Hope the Ravens have secured their spot by this game, and are just resting the starters.
Chance of victory: 75%

SOUTH EL MONTE >> A woman seven months pregnant was shot several times and then rushed to the hospital where she gave birth Tuesday night.
The woman was hospitalized in critical-but-stable condition Wednesday afternoon, Los Angeles County sheriff's Lt. Ismael Chavez said. The baby was listed in stable condition.
The mother was only described as a South El Monte woman in her 20s.
Gunfire rang out in the 1900 block of Merced Avenue shortly after 10 p.m. Tuesday.
Lt. William Wicker said the woman may have been followed home before she was shot by the occupant of a dark-colored vehicle.
The woman was in a driveway when the suspect approached and fired several rounds at her, according to department spokeswoman Deputy Crystal Hernandez.
The woman was hit multiple times. Her assailant drove off.
The motive behind the shooting is still unknown. There was no suspect description.
Deputies released few details about the shooting which is being investigated by Operation Safe Streets and the gang unit at the sheriff's Temple Station.
Investigators aren't sure if the shooting is gang-related.
"There could possibly be a gang nexus," Sgt. R. Hasnas said. He declined to discuss what that might be.
"This is in its infancy. I will not start giving you information that might jeopardize the investigation," he said.
On Wednesday morning, faint bloodstains could be seen on the driveway. No one answered the door of the front house, where a corner of a window was broken. There didn't seem to be anyone home in the back house either.
A resident who lives next door said he didn't know his neighbors. The man declined to give his name but did say he heard about eight gun shots Tuesday night.
"We didn't know what happened," he said.
Another neighbor, Sara Cordon, said she heard the gunfire too. She didn't know how many shots.
"I can't tell because (it was) a lot," Cordon said.
She said they moved to the neighborhood just months ago.
Shantal Galicia, who works the graveyard shift as a nurse, was walking on Merced Avenue when local media told her about the shooting.
"It's horrible. To think this happened," she said. "I just hope they find the guy."
Galicia said there's gang activity in the neighborhood, like tagging. There was a shooting awhile ago, she said, but didn't have details.
The 1900 block of Merced Avenue is a mix of businesses and residences.
At Industrial Pipe & Steel, worker Victor Patron said he lives in the street after Merced Avenue. Like other residents, he said he only heard the gunfire.
Patron said he saw deputies soon after.
Anyone with information is asked to call the sheriff's Temple Station at 626-285-7171. Anonymous tipsters may call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477, or text "TIPLA" plus the tip to 274637, or use the website http://lacrimestoppers.org.

AfriGeneas Free Persons of Color Forum
George Blount (Blunt) of Pasquotank Co. NC
Does anyone have information on a colored George Blount (Blunt) of Pasquotank County, North Carolina. George is my 6 times great-grandfather, he was born in 1795 in NC and had one known child (my 5 time great-grandfather Primus Young) with a slave woman named Fanny. The only information I have on him is 3 census records 1840-1860, he lived with two other free people of color in the 1840 census one male between 55 and 100 and one female between 55 and 100 (i'm guessing they are his parents) and all three are also listed as scholars. In the 1850 census he lives with 3 colored children (Nancy-female-6, Lemuel-male-4, and Isiah-male-1) I do not know their relationship to him. Lastly in the 1860 census he lives alone. I am interested in how he and his parents acquired there free status.

Teams seek the glue that holds them together
As next week's Winter Meetings loom, observers of Major League Baseball are reminded yet again of an axiom that is sometimes mistrusted but keeps occasionally, and with the best of timing, proving why it's an axiom in the first place.
More often than not, some good old-fashioned glue can fix something broken.
As next week's Winter Meetings loom, observers of Major League Baseball are reminded yet again of an axiom that is sometimes mistrusted but keeps occasionally, and with the best of timing, proving why it's an axiom in the first place.
More often than not, some good old-fashioned glue can fix something broken.
Last offseason's Boston Red Sox signings of veteran players Shane Victorino (three years, $39 million), Jonny Gomes (two years, $10 million) and David Ross (two years, $6.2 million) were buried beneath the headlines generated by Josh Hamilton and Zack Greinke and largely viewed as inconsequential, if not odd, maneuverings by a club that should have been doing a lot more after finishing in last place in the American League East.
Of course, there were other moves made by Red Sox general manager Ben Cherington, such as the signing of the higher-profile Mike Napoli and Ryan Dempster, but Victorino hit a grand slam that won the 2013 AL Championship Series, Gomes hit a huge World Series home run, Ross was a tough-minded, backbone backup catcher throughout, and the Red Sox won it all.
But aside from their traits on the field -- Victorino, when healthy, was an All-Star outfielder and offensive force at the top of a lineup and Gomes has always mashed left-handed pitching -- the players fit in as "glue" guys, with clubhouse credibility and the ability and willingness to have their voices heard and to forge chemistry onto a ballclub that had lost it.
Suddenly, those types of acquisitions don't look so bad, and guess who was among the first to make such a move this offseason?
Yes, the Red Sox.
Boston signed catcher A.J. Pierzynski to a one-year deal this week, and while it's a sensible baseball move because it makes up for the impending loss of free agent Jarrod Saltalamacchia to the Marlins and holds down home plate until prospects arrive, it's also another transaction that will help in the chemistry department.
Anyone who's followed Pierzynski knows he's a good hitter and pitch-caller, a decent receiver and a big-time character. In today's game, he defines the guy you love to have on your team and hate to play against. And he welcomes that tag.
"I go out there to win and do everything I can to win," Pierzynski said last year after signing with the Rangers. "What has been said or written, I can't control. All I can do is go out there and play as hard as I can to win. I take pride in the fact that I give everything I have on the field and do everything I can to help my team win."
So there's one glue guy. How many more are available?
Raul Ibanez is one. The 41-year-old signed with Seattle for 2013 and it was more about lending his experience and leadership skills to a very young roster while hopefully providing some occasional left-handed pop off the bench. He ended up having to play more than the club expected because the team needed his bat more than was expected, and he delivered, leading the Mariners with 29 home runs.
A team with a lot of winning pieces in place looking to add a bench bat and clubhouse value, Boston-style, might find a perfect match in Ibanez.
"He's a caretaker for the game of baseball," former Seattle manager Eric Wedge said. "That's the best compliment I can give him. We had high expectations for him as a teammate and player and person, but he's probably surpassed that, if it's even possible."
Lance Berkman has struggled to stay healthy lately, but if he can scratch out 450 or 250 or even 100 injury-free at-bats, his career resume says he'll hit, and if he's in a clubhouse, the veteran of 15 Major League seasons will help.
The same goes for Nate McLouth, who fought his way out of baseball purgatory to emerge as a useful piece in Baltimore the past two seasons. Mark Ellis has played the game the right way in Oakland, Colorado and Los Angeles over 11 seasons and has been revered by teammates for it. He's available as well.
So are Juan Pierre, Jerry Hairston Jr., Placido Polanco, Eric Chavez, Michael Young, Kevin Youkilis, Andres Torres and Reed Johnson.
None are in their primes. Plenty are injury risks. Most are not going to start a lot of games for contending clubs. But all are primed to contribute as integral parts of 25-man rosters, whether or not their on-field numbers reflect it.
"To come in and see the energy and the commitment that they had, the buying into a team concept every single day ... the one thing that really stands out more than anything is just their overall will to win," Boston manager John Farrell said after winning the 2013 World Series with Victorino, Gomes and Ross helping in that very regard every cleat-mark of the way.
"That was no more evident than in this entire postseason."
Expect the Winter Meetings to feature a few more of these signings as the value of chemistry continues to grow.

Seven Questions for Adam Selipsky, VP at Amazon Web Services
A little more than a week ago, I made a lightning-quick trip to Seattle to visit with a few companies based there. (More on that in the coming days.) One of them was Amazon.com. I stopped by the company's still-like-new headquarters in the South Lake Union neighborhood to talk with Adam Selipsky, vice president of Product Management and Developer Relations at Amazon Web Services. I had lots of questions about cloud computing and the plans of the company that's most widely associated with the phrase.
Given how much people talk about cloud computing and the number of companies that use it, you'd think the cloud was a huge business for Amazon Web Services–or AWS for short. It's not. Amazon doesn't break the units results out specifically, and instead lumps it into the "other" category for financial reporting purposes, which amounted to $953 million in 2010, or about three percent of Amazon's total sales. But you can get sense of its growing importance elsewhere within its financial reports: Capital expenditures in 2010 were $979 million, more than 2.5 times the amount it spent in 2009. Amazon didn't detail exactly how it spent that money–some went to offices, some to infrastructure for AWS–but it did say this: "We expect this trend to continue over time."
Next week, Amazon Web Services will hit its five-year mark, so with that milestone in mind, I took the opportunity to ask Selipsky first about its beginnings, before diving into its future.
NewEnterprise: Adam, I remember vaguely the day that Amazon announced it was getting into the vaguely worded "Web Services" business, and really scratching my head at it. How did all this start?
Adam Selipsky: We built it out of necessity. We wondered why projects were taking longer than it seemed they should, and so we did a study and found that our engineering teams were spending about 70 percent of their time on non-value-add work like provisioning and managing their server and IT infrastructure, and not innovating on behalf of customers. That was a big aha moment. We got a blinding glimpse of the obvious, we realized we were not the only ones with this problem. We figured out there was a broad need for these basic technology infrastructure services.
When I think of all the companies that I know have started out using AWS, my head spins. Who's your biggest customer?
We wouldn't break that out. Zynga is one the biggest, obviously. Look at their growth. They couldn't have grown the way they did without AWS. Netflix is another highly significant one. They said they have moved most of their infrastructure to AWS. They have a talented set of engineers who could build and manage their own infrastructure if they wanted to, but the point is that they don't want to. They'd rather work on Netflix rather than the underlying infrastructure.
You've recently added a service called Elastic Beanstalk. Are you going to continue to add services like that through the year?
As fast as we knock out new services and features, the list of what our customers want from us continues to grow. I think that's because this is so new, and since we're replacing the data center, there's a lot of things built up over the decades that run in those data centers. There's going to be a long list of mission critical services that we need to bring up.
What's the big one that people are asking for?
More flavors of databases. We have RDS, the relational database, and we've said we're going to do an Oracle engine. So there's more to do on databases, not only adding new flavors, but also just being more scalable. There's big demand for really highly scalable, high-performance databases, and I think we'll continue to work on that. And I think that there will be more stuff around ease of use. There's going to be more features to help you figure out and deploy whatever you need.
We're starting to see a lot of talk from other companies like Google and Microsoft and IBM who want to get into the cloud services business. What kind of competitive threat to see coming at you?
We've been in business for five years with real paying customers, with large companies down to guys in basements, and I think we were lucky enough to have a real first-mover advantage. A lot of technology companies have not followed quickly in part because they haven't wanted to follow quickly. They make money by getting seven-figure purchase orders, which is good for them, but not so good for their customers, so they have a real dilemma about making the transition.
Another thing I'm hearing a lot of these days is talk of private clouds. Companies are wondering why they can't build their own clouds themselves, and still maintain the on-premise control of their data. Do you sense any threat from that?
There are a lot of companies with large sales forces who are banging the private cloud drum very loudly. When they all do that in concert, some customers are going to listen. But you have to parse that talk from the reality. I think some customers have to be very careful because they lack some fundamental characteristics of the cloud. If you're still writing a very large check, and not operating in a pay-as-you-go fashion, you're losing one of the key advantages of the cloud. If you just bought machines that had to appear on a loading dock somewhere, then what you have isn't instantly scalable. Most importantly, it doesn't take the heavy lifting out of your hands so you can focus on the things that your customers care about and instead focus on things that are really just table ante at the end of the day. CFOs and CIO are going to have look really closely at the benefits that are being advertised to them. A lot of those models look like yesterday's economic model.
What about hybrid models? Along with private clouds I hear a lot about mixing cloud and on-premise.
I don't want to come across as some kind of religious zealot for the cloud. We'll live in some kind of hybrid world for many years to come. But I think that what hybrid principally means is when there's cases where there's applications that can't move because of government regulations or it was just built in 1978 and it's just not conducive to moving–you see that a lot actually–but you want to run other things in the cloud. One of our jobs is to make it really easy for enterprises to live in that hybrid environment.

SNPwatch gives you the latest news about research linking various traits and conditions to individual genetic variations. These studies are exciting because they offer a glimpse into how genetics may affect our bodies and health; but in most cases, more work is needed before this research can provide information of value to individuals. For that reason it is important to remember that like all information we provide, the studies we describe in SNPwatch are for research and educational purposes only. SNPwatch is not intended to be a substitute for professional medical advice; you should always seek the advice of your physician or other appropriate healthcare professional with any questions you may have regarding diagnosis, cure, treatment or prevention of any disease or other medical condition.
Researchers have added chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), the most common type of leukemia in western countries, to the long list of diseases that have been associated with common genetic variants.
CLL is caused by abnormal, uncontrolled growth of immune cells called B-cells. Usually there are no obvious symptoms and the disease is detected only during a routine blood test. In the United States, about 15,000 new cases of the disease are diagnosed each year.
Because there is a familial basis to the disease it tends to run in families, a role for genetics in CLL has long been suspected. First-degree relatives of patients have a seven-fold increased risk for the disease. But so far, no clear contenders for the "CLL gene" have been found. This suggested to researchers that instead of there being one or two genes with large effects to be found, there might instead be multiple genetic risk factors for CLL, each contributing a small amount to the risk.
By studying about 1,500 British people with CLL and about 3,000 controls, Di Bernardo et al found six distinct SNPs associated with CLL. These results, published online today in Nature Genetics, not only begin to shed light on the genetics of the disease, but they also give researchers clues about its biological basis.
(All six SNPs are available from 23andMe. See the table at the end of this post for more information.)
For the about 54% of people of European ancestry who have three or fewer "risky" copies out of a possible 12 (two copies each for six SNPs), there is no significant difference in the risk of developing CLL. Having six risky copies ups a person's odds about 3.8 times over those with none, and the 2.1% of that population who are unlucky enough to have seven risky copies have approximately eight-fold increased odds of developing CLL.
Although it's far from certain that these six SNPs are actually causative factors for CLL, the authors note in their report that it will be intriguing to see if the SNPs are associated with CLL in non-Europeans. Both Asian and African populations have lower frequencies of the risky versions of each of the six SNPs — and lower rates of CLL.
"Effect" is the increase in odds of developing CLL conferred by each copy of the riskier version of a SNP.

There has always been room in Happie and Richard Larson's hearts for one more child and thanks to a federal adoption tax credit, money to ease the transition as their family expanded again and again and again.
The Larsons have adopted 15 children from foster care including 6-year-old Piper, who in June joined two sisters who were already part of the family. The Larsons learned about the tax credit with the adoption of their 12th child, and it made it possible for them to buy a larger home that enabled them to take in three more children.
But the tax credit, which expires this year, is in jeopardy and adoption experts say that unless Congress acts to renew it, fewer families like the Larsons may be able to step up and provide homes for children in need.
"Right now, it allows middle-class and working-class families to adopt," said Denise Bierly, president of the American Academy of Adoption Attorneys, which held its annual symposium in Salt Lake City recently. "It will have a negative impact on the ability of families to adopt and therefore have a negative impact on children unless Congress acts."
Capping the credit • Two bills pending in Congress would renew and expand the credit, making it a permanent, refundable claim. The bills also would establish a flat refundable sum for families who adopt special needs children. All adoptions foster care, private or international would qualify.
Both Rep. Rob Bishop, R-Utah, and Rep. Jim Matheson, D-Utah, back the adoption tax-credit legislation proposed in the House. Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, has not reviewed a Senate bill proposed in September but has long supported an adoption tax credit. While sympathetic to the challenges adoptive families face, Sen. Mike Lee, R-Utah, is waiting for the bill to make it through committee before deciding whether to back it. Rep. Jason Chaffetz, R-Utah, also is still reviewing ramifications of the bill and hasn't decided whether to support it, according to a spokeswoman.
The law has been around in one form or another since 1997, mostly as a credit to reduce tax liability. In 2010 and 2011, tax filers were able to get a refund of up to $13,170 for some itemized adoption expenses. In the case of special-needs children, families were able to claim a refund outright, without having to provide expense receipts. This year, the maximum amount was dropped to $12,650 and tax filers could only claim expenses as a credit against tax liability.
Next year, the credit will only apply to special-needs children adopted from foster care; it also will be capped at $6,000 in qualified expenses court costs, attorney fees, travel expenses, etc.
That likely could have a huge impact on adoptions, said Liz Sollis, spokeswoman for the Utah Division of Child and Family Services.
"Adoption subsidies, though helpful, are often not enough to cover the costs that can come with adopting especially in the case of children with special needs," she said. "Examples of additional costs could include purchasing a larger vehicle or home, making accommodations and renovations for wheelchairs, having to remodel a home so that children have separate rooms, which is especially important in cases in which a child has been a perpetrator of sexual abuse, medical treatment, mental health treatment, substance abuse treatment, etc."
In the U.S., about 68 percent of the nearly 135,000 adoptions that take place each year involve children in foster care, according to Adam Pertman, director of the Evan B. Donaldson Adoption Institute and author of Adoption Nation. An additional 15 percent are intercountry adoptions, mostly from orphanages and institutions in foreign countries.
That means 83 percent of adopted children were neglected, abused or institutionalized because of poverty or parents' incapacity or death before joining a new family, bringing with them a traumatic background and special needs, which often takes more than love to heal, he said.
Help for families • Happie Larson said most of the children who have joined their family had intellectual impairments that required special adaptations in their home, tutoring services and other help.
"In talking to many foster parents, it does affect them when they are able to use these monies to do home repairs … and to meet the needs of children who are often extraordinary," said Larson, president of the Utah Foster/Adoptive Families Association.
In fiscal year 2011, 520 Utah children who were in foster care were adopted, Sollis said.
"With the increased emphasis on providing adoptive parents with the services and resources they need to raise an adopted child, since 2005, more than 98 percent of adoptions of children from state care have been successful," she added.
Deborah Lindner, spokeswoman for the Utah Foster Care Foundation, said while adoption is a primary goal for some, most families aren't thinking about the tax credit when they sign up as foster parents.
"They think about how they want to help children," she said. "It becomes more of an issue as adoption becomes more of a reality … and if they want to adopt more children, it may affect that decision."
But the tax credit also has a significant impact on private adoptions.
"I know that most adoptive families like it very much," said David Hardy, an adoption attorney in Salt Lake City, adding that, depending on the agency, the credit may cover all or some expenses associated with an adoption.
"There are some families who are in a financial position where they can care for a child, but the idea of having to fork over $20,000 to $30,000 to pay adoption expenses are prohibitive, and the adoption tax credit makes that possible."
Bierly said federal fiscal analysts estimate the credit costs the government $1.2 billion in refundable payments.
"We think that is a drop in the bucket when you look at other budgets and the value to society" of finding permanent homes for children in foster care, Bierly said. "That is a child less likely to need youth services, to need mental health services, to be incarcerated."

Font Family: ION B, Number of fonts: 11*OTF + 11*WOFF, Type Foundry: Urtd, Designer: Ondrej Jób, Design date: 2010
ION B is a part of the ION superfamily, which consists of 3 families: condensed (ION A), normal (ION B) and wide (ION C), each having a compelling range of 10 weights. Styles Thin to Black have 436 glyphs supporting more than 70 Latin-based languages and the three heaviest weights, named U1, U2 and U3 have 94 basic glyphs.
ION glyphs are based on the classic 7-segment display, but for readability and aesthetic reasons, some alphabetic characters don't follow this matrix strictly. In case you like things in order, don't worry, there's a stylistic set that replaces all characters with their strict alternatives. The special characters, such as #, @ or % are composed of special segments, but are designed to fit seamlessly within the whole character set.
ION was designed with the needs of contemporary graphic design in mind. There are alternative characters, discretionary ligatures, slashed zero, superior & inferior numbers, fractions, ordinals and three handy stylistic sets.
The ten styles of ION B are accompanied with a special 11th style called Cells, allowing you to design a special underlying layer of black or outlined cells. This way you can create various containers and boxes for your text, highlight what's important or go wild and draw a space invader, using the cells as building blocks.

As if the burden of divorce weren't bad enough, people with failed marriages can be blamed for global warming, according to a study by Michigan State University.
Divorced couples use up more space in their respective homes, which amounts to to 38 million more rooms worldwide to light, heat and cool, noted the report.
And people who divorced used 73 billion kilowatt-hours more of electricity and 627 billion gallons of water than they would otherwise in 2005.
Dissolving a marriage also means doubling possessions, from the lowly can opener to the SUV. The report, however, did not estimate how many more natural resources the children of shared-custody parents consume by getting birthday and holiday gifts twice.
Nor did it count the greenhouse gases spent to shuttle kids between their pair of energy-hogging households. (Tip for carbon offsetting services: the domain name OffsetMyDivorce.com is available.).
The research suggests that singletons who shack up with someone again can undo the ecological damage. Although it might be inferred that "living in sin" is also eco-friendly, the findings did not necessarily endorse the practice of unmarried couples living together.
Rates of divorce are rising around the world, while dropping in North America along with those of marriage, according to the National Marriage Project at Rutgers University.
Divorce ends 46 percent of marriages in the United States, the seventh highest rate in the world, according to Divorce Magazine. The top world record is held by Sweden, where 55 percent of marriages end by divorce. On the other end is Guatemala, with a mere .13 percent divorce rate.
The study was published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences and funded partly by the National Institutes of Health.
