When comparing Container vs Type 2 Hypervisor, the Slant community recommends Container for most people. In the question"What are the best approaches to OS virtualization?" Container is ranked 4th while Type 2 Hypervisor is ranked 5th. The most important reason people chose Container is:
The whole stack can be easily packed and moved.
Ranked in these QuestionsQuestion Ranking
Pro High portability
The whole stack can be easily packed and moved.
Pro Fast startup times enable a highly flexible infrastructure
New containers can be quickly spun up based on changing need.
Pro High density
Two to six times more virtual environments can be created via containers as compared to hypervisors for the same hardware cost since containers don't need to emulate hardware and repeating OS elements for each guest OS.
Pro Dynamic resource allocation
Containers can be assigned, for example, more memory during runtime.
Pro Ease of use
By running on hosts operating system, type-2 hypervisors can be installed and set up the same way any other software is installed.
Pro Lots of flexibilty of what hypervisors on what OSs are run
Hosts hardware can run multiple OSs and multiple type-2 hypervisors can be run side by side on each of the operating systems.
Pro Can run multiple operating systems
Hypervisors can emulate hardware separately for each host allowing them to run multiple operating systems.
Con Security concerns
Since containers are run using shared resources, if any container is compromised, the host is compromised as well.
Many of the security concerns can be alleviated by running containers within hypervisors.
Con Limited to one kernel and OS
All containers on a host will have the same kernel and OS.
Very low density, performance, scalability. Additional performance hit from OS layer.

Performance Administration Snippet - Have No SurprisesHere is the magic formula for achievement as an entry-level, mid-degree, and top-degree supervisor. Consider a deep breath. Center your thoughts. Here it comes. Sure, I've found it: happy workers equal happy clients. You may now be listening to the "hallelujah" tones from above taking part in. That's Ok, it's normal. Your workers, or your professionals if you are over entry level, will be more effective, cooperative and successful if they are pleased. If anybody would like to argue that point with me, please really feel totally free to make a remark below.
Revisions to the strategy. In this section checklist any revisions to the plan and explain why the revisions had been made to the strategy. These could be revisions that happen early on in your business or later on on. The business strategy is the plan for your company as long as it is a company so updating the business plan at minimum yearly ought to be done. This is the area that you can do that.
Employees can't read your mind. Even if you believe your employees are efficient, creative, or what ever phrase you use to explain their great work, they don't know it until you say it. Assuming they know what you believe is the exact same as assuming your children know you love them. Thinking it is 1 factor; saying it tends to make it real.
Take care of yourself. Usually take the time to get enough sleep, consume well and physical exercise. A healthy, nicely-rested body enables you to think more clearly when you are self-assessing.
To counter such culture and methods in the corporate world, smart people and thinkers.proposed things like.360-levels.270-degrees appraisal methods. This kind of people.also recommended for proper and normal "generational sensitivity Systems"."HR-Metrics".but this kind of things had been not appreciated by these types of bosses and chacha's and unsuccessful dramatically and significantly in this part of the globe. We are so use to "Such tradition of gossiping and buttering" that we don't want to come out of it.
Don't give up as well soon - Even although your competition may declare a bigger share of the marketplace, understand website that it is perseverance and endurance, regularity and stability that will see your group succeed on the marathon of company. Some teams could be quick for a season and quickly faint into the horizon when they don't understand that company is a marathon not a 5 moment dash. Maintain the fighting spirit. War with every thing in you. You want to maintain combating usually sees you via any obstacles or issues.
If you are like most individuals you ignored the initial established of feedback and listened to the 2nd. Why? You can only have an effective evaluation and expect some accurate motion when you have a partnership of trust with the individuals you are giving feedback to.
Having an open and understood Leadership Manifesto is all part of building your individual management brand name. Your openness on what individuals can anticipate from you assists them to believe in you more, so that when the going gets tough, they know they can rely on you to lead them nicely.

Three Days
Three days. Three days till Vegas.
So my plans are coming bit more into focus, and frankly it's not in a way that I particularly love. But it looks like, through a combination of factors, that my little plan to play a poker tournament every day is falling flat on its face.
For starters, there isn't a tournament I will be able to just jump in to anywhere near the strip on Thursday night at midnight when I get in. There's only one or two places with a daily tournament at midnight or later, and those are all in old Las Vegas or otherwise a long ways away from the MGM where I'll be staying, and I'm just not that ambitious to head over there within minutes of my arrival. I will already have four friends in the city for my brother's bachelor party when I arrive on Thursday night, and at least some greeting drinks will need to be imbibed before I can plausibly leave to plays some poker, so there just won't be time enough for me to get, for example, to the Rio for their 11pm nightly tournament that I understand is pretty decent for what it is.
So a poker tournament on Thursday night seems like it's out. Similarly, on Friday the Venetian has a great structure for their daily noon nlh tournament, but the issue there is that my brothers and friends are already registered for dinner at Prime at the Bellagio on Friday night. I forget the exact time of dinner, but assuming it is anywhere around normal dinner-eating time, then I don't foresee myself signing up for that great Venetian tournament because it typically lasts well into the evening and I know it saves the final table for the final day, which would also interfere with my World Series of Poker plans. Sure, I could skip dinner at Prime. But, #1 this is my brother's bachelor party and that is one of the few plans we have made that is supposed to be "set in stone" for the group to do together, and #2, the meal I had at Prime last summer when I was in town for the WSOP was to this day one of the five best meals I have ever eaten in my life, and I don't really want to miss that again. As I recall, my brothers and I split the raw seafood tower, and then I proceeded to eat far and away the most delicious, most tender fillet mignon of my entire life. I remember literally not using my knife at all because the meat was so tender, I could easily cut it just with my fork. And the steak had that kind of flavor that you wouldn't even consider using steak sauce or really any seasoning at all on. If the guy had come around trying to sprinkle some fresh ground pepper on it, I would have physically stopped him before he got close. That shit was just perfect last year, and while I'm sure Prime can't equal that experience from last summer, it should be a great meal and a great time with my friends celebrating the last of my generation in my family to say goodbye to his glory days of being single and fancy free. So, with Prime looming on Friday evening, it is unlikely that I will want to be playing anything more than a quick sitngo anytime on Friday afternoon.
If I'm a man, depending on what time we roll out of Prime on Friday, I may think about hitting up the Rio or someplace else for an 11pm tournament. The Rio is a good option for two reasons. First, they have a good structure tournament with typically bad WSOP donkeys playing it at that hour. Secondly, I probably want to register early for my WSOP event anyways rather than leave my ability to start on time on Saturday up to however good the logistics people at Harrah's have figured out crowd control at this year's World Series. So far the few reports I've seen have been mixed, but there've definitely been some stories of long lines shortly before the big events kick off, and people missing the first hour of their tournaments because they're stuck in line at registration, so I'd kind of like to get over to the Rio sometime on Friday anyways to get that taken care of. So, Friday night at 11pm at the Rio is a possibility for a poker tournament, but then I'll need to figure the likely effect of such a decision on my Saturday noon start time for WSOP Event #51. That one could go either way and will probably depend largely on how I'm feeling on Friday night after that sweetass Prime feast.
On Saturday, of course, I will be in the World Series, starting at 12 noon at the Rio. This is traditionally where I've had the chance to meet up with a few bloggers in past years, and it sounds like I may be able to do the same this time around. Sounds like at least BBT4 killer 1Queensup1 will be in the same event, so hopefully he and I can meet up and laugh about how Your World Champion Philadelphia Phillies have somehow lost like 9 of 11 games but are still 2 games up on the Mets who cannot get out of the way of some of the worst teams in baseball, or something like that. So anyways, of course the plan is hopefully that I will be in the WSOP all day on Saturday, something which I will write more about later in the week as far as my expectations for the WSOP this year.
Assuming no final table of my WSOP event -- more on that later this week as well -- Sunday might be another good opportunity for me to get my poker on in a tournament forum. If I'm not in the WSOP, most of my bachelor party friends will be clearing out of town sometime before noon on Sunday, while I will be sticking around until Monday morning (unless I need to delay my departure due to some incredible tournament run or something), so if I'm not in the WSOP, then on Sunday I am basically on my own starting around mid-morning. Maybe that can be a day for me to check out the Venetian and play a tournament there for the first time in my life. Man I have got a lot of research to do still before I actually have any idea what my plans are this weekend.
All I know is, I'm on a plane bounded for the Left Coast in less than 80 hours. Unfortunately, I've got about 80 hours of work to squeeze in along with commuting, meal times, and of course some sleep sprinkled in as well, but don't worry. If this is anything like past years, this should be just about the longest three days of my life, so I should have plenty of time to get everything done that I need to get done.
More tomorrow on my expectations for the WSOP in light of some of the incredible stuff that's gone on this summer already.

For the first time in their 55-year history, the US Navy SEALs may soon welcome their first frogwoman.
A female junior in an undisclosed college Reserve Officers' Training Corps is vying to join the rarefied ranks of the legendary commando unit as an officer, according to NPR.
She and another trailblazing woman will make history as the first female candidates for Naval special-ops jobs since the Pentagon in 2015 lifted a ban on women serving in front-line combat positions.
The other woman is training to become a special warfare combatant-craft crewman, or SWCC, NPR reported. Both were not identified for security reasons.
"They are the first candidates that have made it this far in the process," Lt. Cmdr. Mark Walton, spokesman for the Naval Special Warfare Command, told NPR.
The news was first reported by Military.com, which operates independently from the US armed forces.
To become a SEAL, candidates must make it through the strenuous Basic Underwater Demolition/SEAL training – or BUD/S – but most don't make it through.
The attrition rate for SEAL candidates is 73 percent to 75 percent, and 63 percent for SWCC, according to the Navy.
"It's different for everyone," Walton said about the training process. "It could be the physical stuff, it could be mental, it could be medical. There could be a lot of different reasons."
Walton warned, "It would be premature to speculate as to when we will see the first woman SEAL or SWCC graduate. It may take months and potentially years."
The success rate for the SEAL officer program is higher, at 65 percent, but officials said the number reflects a greater number of applicants enlisted.

|Able to use ASL grammar and vocabulary with sufficient accuracy to participate effectively in most formal and informal conversations on social and work topics. There is spontaneous elaboration, when appropriate, on all familiar topics and unfamiliar topics alike. Vocabulary base is broad and conversation is fluent and shared. There is evidence of some colloquial use and cultural references. Comprehension is very good.
|Able, with some confidence, to use some ASL grammar along with use of signs, fingerspelling, and numbers, in everyday communication needs related to social demands, work and/or study situations. In spite of occasional hesitations, there is fair to good control of everyday sign vocabulary with which to narrate and describe topics in some detail. In spite of some noticeable imperfections, errors rarely interfere with understanding. Comprehension is fairly good as repetition or rephrasing is needed only occasionally.
|Able to satisfy basic social survival needs for work or study situations. Able to ask and answer routine questions with some skill in creating sign utterances based on learned or memorized vocabulary. Grammar control is clearly still under development, but there is occasional evidence of correct application. Vocabulary limitations are noticeable and fluency is still under development. Comprehension limitations are evident due to the need for more frequent repetition or rephrasing of questions or topics.
|Able to use language with single sign utterances or short, routine sentences limited primarily to everyday social and work needs based on memorized vocabulary. Grammar is minimal and ability to use detail in any given situation is restricted due to vocabulary limitations. Any shared communication is very limited and comprehension clearly requires frequent repetition and/or rephrasing.
|Able to communicate occasional isolated signs; little or no comprehension of even the most simplified and slowed communication; no functional language during the course of the interview.
For 0-4, the score may include a plus (+). This indicates that the interviewee exceeds the requirements for a particular level but does not satisfy in all respects the requirements of the next level.

Sitting at the top of Norco's budget XC hardtail range, the Charger 7.1's distinctive looks aren't the only thing that make it stand out. With an airsprung fork and 2x10 Shimano Deore based transmission – pimped up by an SLX rear derailleur upgrade – it offers a fair chunk of componentry bling for your money. But how well does it perform?
Frame and equipment: versatile and confidence boosting beginner setup
Few things are more confidence-inspiring for novice riders than the ability to make a mistake on the trail without risking the tenderest parts of the body. The Charger's radically sloped top tube follows a long tradition of Canadian hardtail design, giving its rider a precious inch or so of extra standover clearance. The seat tube has been extended – and braced with an extra tube – to keep the seatpost length within the realms of sanity.
A complex-profile down tube makes up the Charger's backbone, widening to a stiffness enhancing rectangular section at the bottom bracket shell and curving where it joins the head tube to help disperse the stress from frontal impacts. The head tube isn't tapered for extra steering precision, but that's less of a problem on a bike at this level.
If your bike needs to do double duty for the weekday commute, don't underestimate the value of being able to use a pannier rack
The seatstays and chainstays wend their way in ankle-clearing fashion from the seat tube and bottom bracket joints to the dropouts. There's plenty of mud clearance, largely thanks to extra dimples in the chainstays around the tyre, though the relatively slender stock treads help in that department too. Rack mounts are a bonus for commuters or wannabe tourers, though there's only room in the compact front triangle for a single set of bottle cage mounts.
Holding up the front is RockShox's budget airsprung XC 30 fork in 100mm (3.9in) travel trim. It's great to see an air fork, albeit a low-end one, on a budget hardtail – the adjustability over the cheaper coil alternatives makes a significant difference.
Tyre choice is a personal thing. The comparatively narrow and fast-rolling WTB Nanos are arguably a good choice for a bike that could see varied use, from the daily commute to weekend trail riding. But the limited air volume and shallow, close-spaced tread quickly show their limitations on muddy, technical trails. If your ambitions are largely off-road, you'd do well to upgrade to some rubber that has more grip and bite.
The sloping top tube may help soothe anxious novice riders
The 2x10 transmission simplifies gear selection at the expense of some top-end gearing, which might be an issue, but for most off-road trails it's fine. We'd prefer a 180mm brake rotor up front for better cooling on long descents, but the Norco's 160mm discs will be fine unless you have a habit of brake-dragging.
Ride and handling: a sweetly judged jump-off into mountain biking
A mountain bike has to cope with a wide range of situations, from barely-above-walking-pace climbs to eye-watering descents, and a whole lot more besides. Finding the right geometry formula to tackle all those trail scenarios is a balancing act, and nowhere more so than with a bike that's quite likely to find itself in the hands of a relative newcomer to mountain biking.
Norco's design team have got the recipe spot on with the Charger 7.1. Although there's little on paper to separate this bike from more race-inspired hardtail designs, a sensibly proportioned head tube puts the handlebar at the right height for comfortable day-long rides without sacrificing handling precision or fun. We were initially concerned that the 85mm stem was a tad lengthy, but paired with the fairly short 590mm top tube of our 18.5in frame, it turned out to be just the right side of too long.
The Charger happily tucked into most things we threw its way
In every trail scenario from low-speed, rocky and rooty climbs to fast, flowing singletrack descents, the Charger turns out to be a willing accomplice. The limiting factor is the relatively basic, flexy and chattery fork. It'd be churlish to grumble too much – after all, we're just grateful to see a decent air fork on a bike at this price.
We've no doubt that a slightly longer travel, better damped and more accurate fork would set the Charger's potential free. Having said that, we'd then want a slightly slacker head angle and shorter stem…
But let's not get carried away. As it stands, the Charger 7.1 achieves exactly what it sets out to do, which is to offer competent, fun and newbie-friendly trail performance. For a do-anything, go-anywhere bike at an incredible price, it's well worth a second look.

it hurts everyone when i procrastinate: november
NovemberCenter City
Posts re: LG's birthday and the first half of our trip to Philadelphia are over there --> in the archives. Check 'em if you care. Here's the rest of the posts from the Philadelphia trip, plus a bunch of pictures that didn't get posted, well, because they didn't get posted yet.
By my count, that( ^ ) was just barely over 1000 words. Therefore you only get to look at one of the following pictures:
Washington Square / Federal Mint
Day 7: Thanksgiving Day - or- The Day of How Much Can I Possibly Stuff in My Face - or - How Long Can I Actually Sit On This Couch And Not Burn Off a Single Calorie Because That Would Be a Shame Given How Much Time I've Spent Stuffing My Face.
It. Was. Glorious.
Turkey, mashed potatoes, gravy, cranberry sauce, green bean casserole, squash casserole, rolls, apple pie, pumpkin pie, banana cream pie. Did I forget anything? I'm sure I forgot something. And that was all after the breakfast-snack-brunch-snack-lunch-snack marathon of pancakes, vegies and dip, chips and dip, meatballs, cheese, cheeseball, crackers, and I-know-I'm-forgetting-something of the morning. Ahhh, food coma. It hurts to type.
Day 8: The big guys had manly man stuff to do today (read: K had to work because the Evil Empire is evil that way and BG decided to save a vacation day by going in to work with him), so J and I took the kiddos to that great plastic wonderland in the sky that is McDonalds. LG was either not so much impressed with the real deal chicken nuggets or far more impressed with the giant hamster maze that loomed above our heads as we atel; either way, he managed to gulp down 1 nugget before announcing he was done and done he was. He only got stuck in the tube thingy once and thankfully there were smaller people around than I who he knew and trusted to help get him down. You see, unlike him, I rather enjoyed my nuggets and after the gluttony of the day before, it didn't take those greasy artery cloggers longer than about 3 minutes to attach themselves firmly to either side of my ass making it virtually impossible for me to finagle my way through said tubing without the jaws of life preceeding me. After lunch, we took the young 'uns back to the house, put the two littlest down for their naps, popped in a video for the rest, and snuck out the back door for a little Black Friday fun.
Relax. We left our phone numbers on a pad of paper by the phone. And a couple of bandaids. With that many boys, you should always leave bandaids.
J and I hit Walgreens and let me tell you, what followed is a tale of urban legend caliber. I've never been much of a believer in the Almighty Coupon, but, ladies and gentlemen, what I saw on that day made me believe. I won't go into great detail because I'm not sure if her secrets are subject to trademark or not and I don't want any trouble that way. The important part is this: when we walked up to the cash register, we had a basket full of items totaling upwards of $30. When the smoke and the stack of coupons cleared, J's total was less than $8. I think a little piece of my head exploded when I realized that included 2 tubes of toothpaste, a pack of diapers, tomato paste, deoderant, and I don't even remember what else. Resolution for 2009? I am so jumpin' on the coupon bandwagon!
We took advantage of our kid-free status to hit Starbucks for a Salted Caramel Hot Chocolate (or as I like to call it, Ecstacy) break and a little heart-to-heart, uninterrupted girl time. Wow time, as one of my other girlfriends likes to call it -- Mom time turned upsided down. And it was awesome. I don't remember all we chatted about -- quite possibly we just stared at each other and gloried in the ability to actually hear the muz-ick. Doesn't matter. It was time much needed and well spent and I left there buzzing from much more than the sugar and caffiene racing through my veins.
And all was well.
Day 9: J and A introduced me to Phase 10. Which was fun and well and good until we had to move away from the dice version to the card version. Note for those of you not yet indoctrinated? If you prefer cards, please limit the number of players that you invite to join your soiree. 4 hours of Phase 10 is too long. Too, too long.
Day 10: I don't want to talk about Day 10. The repacking that means the trip is coming to an end quite simply sucks. I don't mind the repacking that means we have more friends to visit. Correction: I don't mind the visiting more friends. I hate repacking. Nothing ever fits as neatly back into the suitcase as it did when the packing process was aided by the excitement of a trip not-yet-started. But knowing that in 3 short days we will be back on an airplane, headed across the country, away from so much of our "family"? That sucks. Next time I'm going to just burn everything so that we don't have to repack it.
Day 11: Caught the train from Wilmington, DE back to the city. Met Amy et al for lunch at Marathon on the Square . Because we simply had not eaten enough yet this trip. The boys were awesome lunch companions, splitting a grilled cheese sandwich and sharing their toys as if they had just seen each other yesterday. I cannot even describe the wholeness that I felt at that moment, surrounded by people I love, in a resturaunt I love, waiting for food that I love, in a city that feels more like home than any of the half-dozen+ places I've called home. ::sniffle::
Two and a half days here won't even come close to scratching the surface of all the catching up that needs to be done, but watching the boys together, sneaking in some snuggle time with Lucy, and talk, talk, talk, talking with Amy will be a good start. How early do you think is too early to get up tomorrow morning?
Day 12: The new Please Touch Museum? AWESOME. More on that when I get pictures uploaded and the battery on this iTouch recharged. Salad for lunch today in preparation for the gorge-fest at Fogo de Chao. May never have to eat meat again. May never be able to look at meat again.
Day 13: Walked with the kiddos to the park for one final hurrah. Now on the train as it speed us one final time through the city on it's way to the airport. I miss my pillow, but I'm still not quite ready to go home. I don't remember ever being on the last day of a trip and not being ready to go home. Guess it's never too early to start planning next year's trip... More when we get back to CA.
By my count, that( ^ ) was just barely over 1000 words. Therefore you only get to look at one of the following pictures:

NCAA Tournament Predictions: First Four West Region: 14. Iona vs. 14. BYU, winner vs. Marquette
By: Kels Dayton
14 Iona Gaels (25-7, 15-3 MAAC)- Iona received a surprise NCAA Tournament at-large bid out of the MAAC after an upset loss to Fairfield in the conference tournament semifinals. The Gaels
have three players who will garner NBA Draft consideration. Senior point guard Scott Machado leads the nation in assists with 10.1 per game, and could be a lottery pick. Guard LaMont 'Mo Mo' Jones is an Arizona transfer who helped the 'Cats destroy Duke in the Sweet 16 last season, and forward Mike Glover leads the Gaels in scoring (18.5 ppg) and rebounding (9.3 rpg).
Iona is the nation's highest-scoring team, and ranks 2nd in field goal percentage.
If there's a team out there that can make a VCU-type run to the Final Four, it's Iona.
1st Points per game (83.3)
1st Assists per game (19.3)
2nd Field Goal Percentage (.504)
14 Brigham Young (25-8, 12-4 West Coast)-BYU made the NCAA field by the skin of its teeth in its first season in the West Coast Conference. There's no more Jimmer-mania in Provo, but forward Noah Hartsock (Hartsock-mania?) carried the team back to the Big Dance by averaging 16.7 points and 5.2 rebounds per game.
Forward Brandon Davies, who missed the NCAA Tournament last season due to suspension, is another key cog for the Cougars. He averaged 15 points and 7.5 rebounds in a stellar senior season.
This could be one of the most entertaining games of the tournament, as both Iona and BYU love to get up and down the floor. BYU was 13th in the nation in points per game this season, and 6th in assists. The Cougars' big advantage could be inside, where they finished 21st in the country in rebounding.
13th Points per game (78.0)
21st Rebounds per game (35.8)
6th Assists per game (13.0)
PREDICTION: Iona

WINNER vs. 3 Marquette (25-7, 14-4 Big East)- The Golden Eagles enjoyed their best season in the school's Big East history, going 14-4 and earning a No. 2 seed in the conference tournament in New York City. Marquette has improved steadily under head man Buzz Williams, who has been one of the nation's more underrated coaches.
The Golden Eagles are led by two statsheet-stuffers, to borrow a phrase from Clark Kellogg, in guard Darius Johnson-Odom (18.5 points per game), and big man Jae Crowder (17.4 ppg, 8.4 rpg, 2.1 apg).
The committee did Marquette absolutely no favors in giving them a No. 3 seed in the West region. The Golden Eagles got a tough first-round draw in two at-large teams in Iona and BYU, and will have a difficult second-round matchup with either. If they survive their first test, they'll likely face 30-1 Murray State in round 2. If they advance to the Sweet 16, they'll have earned it.
31st Points per game
7th Assists per game
73rd Field Goal Percentage
PREDICTION: Iona

An Egyptian actress has been reduced to tears after a TV prank show staged her abduction by Islamic State terrorists.
Heba Magdi broke down in hysterics when actors in balaclavas with an Islamic State flag forced their way into a room and attempted to place her in a suicide vest.
One of the men stood over her and pointed a camera in her face as another fired a shot into the air.
Egyptian media reports the men demanded she marry their leader.
Video of the Al Nahar TV prank shows a room in chaos as people scatter when an explosion is heard off camera.
The actress cowered behind a chair and tried to hide her face as one of the men yells instructions at her as police sirens blare in the distance.
Eventually one of the men sat down with Magdi and explained she was part of a staged prank on a hidden camera show.
It is uncertain whether Ms Magdi was in on the prank or was genuinely caught off guard.
It is not the first time the television station has tried this prank.
A video posted by Al Nahar TV earlier this week shows a similar scenario where "terrorists" storm into the room of an unnamed man.
The actors in this video appear to kill a woman but the man doesn't seem convinced his captors are legitimate and even wrestles one of them to the ground.

Stampin' Up! Demonstrator stampwithpeg – Timeless Textures and Elegant Butterflies
I wanted to make sure the cards I was doing were quick so timed myself with these. From start to finish it took me 20 minutes to do all three, and I wasn't totally sure how I was going to do these, so next time I think they would be lots quicker. I stuck to one colour for each of these, using Night of Navy, Bermuda Bay and Wisteria Wonder.
The first thing I did was cut 3 card blanks, I halved A4 and scored in the middle. I then cut 1 of each colour for the first layer, making them 1/8″ less on both the width and length. Lastly the layer of Whisper White, 1/8″ less than the coloured layer.
I used the Timeless Textures stamp set, stamping the gorgeous leafy pattern twice down the left hand side overlapping to look longer, and the mesh stamp across the bottom I stamped this off on scrap paper first to make it a bit lighter.
I punched out 1 Elegant Butterfly and 1 Bitty Butterfly in each colour, I distressed the edges of the lighter butterflies with the matching Ink, but think I wouldn't do this next time. Under the larger butterfly I looped some Silver Metallic thread, but again don't think it really needed this.
I stamped Thank You from the One Big Meaning stamp set, but could use any sentiment here. I finished off with some Rhinestone Basic Jewels on the butterflies and scattered on the front.
I like the way these turned out for such a quick card, and if I hadn't used the thread or distressed the butterflies they would have been even quicker.
Thank you for visiting
Happy Crafting

First published in Retail Week on the 12th February 2016
Twitter is no longer growing. This week's announcement that numbers of active monthly users are on the decline follows a weekend when the social media channel topped it's own trending chart with the hashtag #RIPTwitter following reports that it plans to launch a timeline driven by algorithms that will see the "best" tweets rise to the top.
In fairness to the social media giant, this change, since confirmed by Twitter, might actually help some of its users, especially the majority who are not part of the 'Twitterati' and dip in and out of the channel. Like me.
But the reaction shows that the public consciousness is awakening to the tyranny of the algorithm at a time when our private data is becoming the topic of even more public debate around the implementation of the EU Data Protection Directive.
Understanding the implications will make this an interesting time for retailers, many of whom are still relatively new to the on-line world and are struggling to make it profitable. Perhaps it is time for them to go back to the core of what they are good at, which is understanding what people need and meeting their requirements.
When I buy a patch to repair a waterproof coat on Amazon, I don't need to be served ads and recommendations for alternative products. I bought what I needed and I have already solved the problem. As we all seek automation in operations, we must not lose sight of the fact that our customers are human.
I'm a big fan of Dollar Shave Club. It has disrupted a category with a subscription format that has moved the razor purchase out of the physical store and this week they took their unique brand of advertising to the most famous commercial break in the world, the superbowl. But their success is not just down to quirky creative or value, a quality product and convenience, what they understand is that every customer touch constitutes a brand experience. They use data to create deliver personalized customer experiences, but also understand that the club's Member Services organization is the day-to-day front line of the DSC brand.
A recent trip to Maplin reminded me of just how important customer experience is. I'm sure the store is an Aladdin's cave for people, who write algorithms, but for something like me help is required and that is what its floor staff do so well. I went in with a problem and they solved it for me.
Much of what people do when they shop is about problem solving and that is something that Asda's new chief customer officer knows very well. Andy Murray joins from parent Walmart, but before that he built a very successful agency grounded in human behavioural insight that transformed communication in-store and he is one of the founding fathers of shopper marketing.
What happens when he arrives in Leeds is going to be very interesting, given Walmart's work in the US on building emotional connections with shoppers through its brand advertising and forging links with social issues.
Whatever Murray does you can be sure he will need to get to the heart of the Asda brand and ensure the retailer is in synch with customer needs and wants.

Frank Corrado, a Blue Blaze financial life guide, encourages a client to do a deep dive into her goals and motivations.
We're talking about my money, Right?
(No. Not first thing, anyway.)
Remember the first time an adult you respected told you, "If you're having a difficult time deciding what is the right thing to do -- just listen to your gut. Deep down, if it's right, you'll feel it."
That's exactly how I felt the first time I was introduced to the concept of appreciative inquiry.
After years of providing excellent financial planning service to my clients, the traditional model I'd been trained in just didn't feel right anymore.
So I started talking to everyone I could, reading everything I could, searching for a way of serving clients with a need for financial services that felt right. Then I found Appreciative Moments, by Dr. Ed Jacobson. Dr. Jacobson was my first teacher to introduce me to Appreciative inquiry (AI).
Appreciative inquiry is a conversation model that engages stakeholders in self-determined change. The diagram below does a pretty good job illustrating the process.
My first exposure = Mind Blown. This felt right.
I was a successful financial advisor and had been helping clients build their net worth for more than fifteen years using tried and true, traditional financial planning principles. But after working with scores of clients for nearly half my professional career, I was questioning the impact I was having on the lives of my clients. Sure, I was helping them make more money through better investing and financial strategies, but I felt strongly that there was more I should be, and wanted to be bringing to the table in these relationships.
Advice v.s. Guidance: Yes, There's a Difference
I was great at giving my clients financial advice, but what I was beginning to realize, is, that on occasion, my values and assumptions were creeping in to the advice I was giving. Advice should be fact based and provided with an overriding sense of expertise, and mine certainly was.
What I discovered through learning about AI was that, in certain situations, what's even more valuable to clients than advice, is the opportunity to offer them guidance -- and yes, there IS a difference. Advice is about giving recommendations to solve a problem. Guidance is about helping someone figure out how they can solve their problem.
Appreciative inquiry is one of the fundamental communication skills we need when providing guidance. (And it's transforming the meaning of 'client-focused' in our industry.) In my current practice, AI gives me a great tool to empower my clients, helping them discover their true passions and motivations and allowing them to set truly personal, meaningful goals that catapult them into their optimal life.
Let me share an example of why AI is now embedded our practice.
As I was sitting with a colleague the other day, we started sharing tidbits of interesting stories we are reading on social media. We exchanged insights about finance and finlife topics that seem to be trending on Twitter and Facebook.
After a few minutes, she stopped and scrolled through a website on her phone. "Frank, what do you think about this?," she asked me, handing the phone to me.
I did a quick scan of the article, a well-written piece by a blogger who was thanking a dear friend of for good advice. You see, he had started canning his own food (and just put up 24 jars of pickles).
As he told it, what started out as a test to see how much money he could save putting up his own fruits and vegetables quickly became an obsession. In his story, he shared how he delightedly told his friend -- also his business coach -- how he was saving an average of $1.30 a jar by making his own pickles. The blogger then shared his friend-coach's response, "You're not really saving money," the friend asserted. "You'd make more money using the time you spend canning to grow your business."
In other words, according to the 'friend-coach', Time = Money = Value. And the main takeaway the author was driving home in his blog was this: this is valuable advice, "I can make more money using the time I spend canning on building my business, instead - much more money than I'm saving making my own pickles."
Looking up from the 7" screen, I asked my colleague, "Do you agree with the author?" She frowned. "I understand the point, but I wondered if you see it the same way."
"I think you know the answer to that," I replied, handing the phone back to her.
Appreciative Inquiry and True Client-Centered Conversations
The article my colleague shared with me that day was a perfect example of traditional advice given in the standard context of a financial planning relationship. However I started Blue Blaze to deliver a different level of professional service to clients -- one that helps them identify and achieve their true life's purpose - their optimal life. The operating assumption of Life Guidance is that money is not the answer to achieving one's optimal life, but rather a means to that end.
Appreciative inquiry is smack dab in the heart of the financial life guidance process. We want to understand, "What is good here? How do we get more of it?"
"Did the author say whether he enjoyed making pickles?" I asked my colleague.
"Maybe he enjoys making pickles," I speculated. "Maybe, the smell of pickles reminds him of time spent with his extended family, his grandmother. Maybe," I continued, "He loves the feel of the jars as he fills them and the challenge of measuring the ingredients for the perfect taste. Maybe the real payoff for him is the satisfaction of coming up with different recipes for pickling spices and sharing something he created himself with other people.
Maybe the time is really being spent on building business- a new pickling business!
If he didn't ask his friend any of these questions," I continued, "and the author didn't ask himself or even know to ask -- how does he know the real value of each jar of pickles? His friend surely doesn't."
Being empathetic, asking those probing questions -- questions that encourage our clients to truly focus on their emotions and the motives for their behaviors -- frees them to connect with the feelings they feel when they're doing what they do. This is the value added of using appreciative inquiry.
My takeaway from that article is, perhaps the author himself didn't truly connect to why canning was so important to him. Maybe if he did, he'd discover the true value of cracking open a jar of his own, crisp, sweet or sour pickles. Author's Pickles = $priceless.
Make Your Own Pickles.
By using appreciative inquiry techniques, we can all build richer experiences and relationships with those we care about. When we are truly appreciative and inquiring, we are not necessarily focused on an "appropriate" question, but instead, we want to ask questions that help us connect with the respondent. This is the beginning of true conversation and discovering what's really important.
The next time you speak to your spouse or your child, instead of asking them, "How was your day?", try it differently with, "Tell me what was great about your day?"
See what happens. See how they respond. See how you feel.
What's Next?
Blue Blaze is going down its own path with Appreciative Inquiry. If you would like to have a conversation with one of our financial life guides to see how we can help you identify and realize your optimal financial-life balance, we encourage you to reach out. We have a few remaining complimentary consultations available in 2017!

The Bereavement Midwife - #International Day of the Midwife
On the eve of #International Day of the Midwife, we'd like to share a piece of poetry, written by Nikki, a midwife. Written as a way of debriefing, she wrote this with tears in her eyes.
The bereavement midwife
By Nikki
You'll never know the way we felt, when we looked into your eyes.
You'll never know the tears we cried, the tears that we disguised.
Your courage in your time of loss, powered us, in keeping strong.
While you were mourning your baby,
We were mourning along.
You showed us strength and bravery, you reminded us how to love.
You showed us all your weakness, and how to rise above.
We trusted in your process, your strength to carry on.
We trusted in your little light, and how brightly it had shone.
We probably apologized a lot, a thousand times you heard "I'm sorry."
We tried to help you plan some things, things that didn't need your worry.
Sorry didn't cut it, but it's all that we had.
There was no words we cold possibly say, to take away the bad.
You never asked for any of this,
For that we truly know.
All you wanted was the pitter patter, and to watch your baby grow.
It was all you ever wanted, and it's all you never had.
But hold tight to all those memories,
For one day you'll be glad.
You'll be glad you had this gift, who grew inside of you.
Who felt your heart beating, and every single thing you'd do.
This is such a special part of you, the life you grew inside.
And all those memories you've got right now, one day you won't want to hide.
We use our big and fancy words and sometimes they aren't straight.
You need to know, we think of you, when we're not working, when it's late.
You aren't just another person, and neither is your baby.
You weren't a distant memory, a thought that just turned hazy.
You taught us things, we're grateful for, you'll never understand.
And you taught us those things while you showed us your pain and silently held our hand.
We never wanted to see you lose, your precious little gift.
We never want to see you down, the pain we wish we could lift.
If we could do it now, we'd make it all just cease.
We never want to see you cry, the fear and questions, we wish we could ease.
There was no words that we could say.
To take the pain, take it right away.
You mightn't hear us weep, because we didn't think it right.
But what you didn't know, is we sat weeping for you through the night.
A baby is meant to stay. To learn and flourish and grow.
But for you that hasn't happen, and that is our deepest sorrow.
We want you to know how hard it was, to sit with you, at this time.
To know we couldn't stop this, to know how to not cross that professional line.
Everyday you think of your baby, were probably thinking of you too.
Every time you cry for your baby, we're hurting for you, it's true.
You might not have felt that we heard you, heard your silent scream.
But the truth is that we did, we just did it behind the scene.
We send you off to live your life. To make some dreams come back.
We often think of you, and your sweet baby, and hope that you're on track.
We send you all our love now, we mean it from our heart.
We send you all the happiness and wish you safety in the new life you've had to start.
Your pain will ease a little, you'll learn to live this life a new.
Your baby's memories will always be with us, and we'll always be thinking of you.

I've not been on a job hunt in a handful of years now, and I find the lessons I learned from my college career counselor are coming in handy. First of all, in a cover letter, use action verbs and memorable language. For example, I don't edit material for features publications, I cultivate stories from a field of clever content. I don't write columns, I pound them out and forge them using the blacksmith's anvil of my creativity. And my prose isn't purple, it's oozing with an overabundance of pointless, redundant language.
While I still plan on returning to college and picking up my teaching certificate (my counselor was right; a degree in English doesn't automatically gain you access to the six-figure jobs), I'm still looking for something to do when I head back to Wisconsin. What I find is discouraging, to say the least.
What is encouraging, however, is the teaching field. There will always be a need for high school English teachers. If there's anything life in the real world has taught me, it's the fact that I'm better off not in it, and tucked away in a high school somewhere.

Noted Pianist Michael Fennelly to Perform in Morris Choral Society's 5/20 Concert
Mr Fennelly will join the Morris Choral Society, the MidAtlantic Opera Orchestra, renowned violinist Byung-Kook Kwak under the baton of Jason C. Tramm in "Peace, Triumphant Peace. The Morris Choral Society's concert program will include the New Jersey premiere of contemporary composer Karl Jenkins' epic choral work "The Peacemakers." Scored for full orchestra and choir, "The Peacemakers" employs instrumental sounds not generally heard in the symphonic repertoire. Noted Korean -American violinist Byung-Kook Kwak serves as both concertmaster and featured soloist, performing Jenkins' challenging violin solo movements, a signature feature of Jenkins' compositions.
Praised as a pianist with "flair and energy" (The New York Times), Michael Fennelly's recordings include The Legend of Faust: Part One, Debut, and Grand Tour. This season he is the soloist with the National Chorale in his own arrangement of Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue for solo piano, orchestra, and symphonic chorus at Lincoln Center. He conducts a new opera From My Mother's Mother by Jeeyoung Kim for the Korean Cultural Center, NYC, and performs in concert with Renée Fleming and Emmy nominee Tituss Burgess. Last season Michael Fennelly established the Athena Music Foundation and toured China, Macau, and Hong Kong with several rising opera stars of the Metropolitan Opera. He performed in Bora Bora, French Polynesia, and throughout the US in concert, and was the soloist and premiered his choral arrangement of Rhapsody in Blue with the New Jersey Festival Orchestra.
In 2014-2015 Michael Fennelly was the music director for La Cenerentola with New York City Opera, performed with the Buffalo Philharmonic conducted by JoAnn Falletta in the Moross Symphony no. 1, and was the music director for La traviata and appeared in The Paris Salon with the Berkshire Theater Festival. He collaborated with conductor Alan Gilbert on Gloria - A Pig Tale with the New York Philharmonic, as well as several productions with Gotham Opera. Michael Fennelly conducted Madama Butterfly with Amore Opera, and was the music director and pianist for Porgy and Bess with the Tillis Center for the Performing Arts in Long Island.
Michael Fennelly has the distinction of being named a Bösendorfer Artist, and represented the US on a tour of Japan for the State Department. He has performed in many of the world's great concert halls, including Carnegie Hall, Lincoln Center's David Geffen Hall (formerly Avery Fisher Hall), Munich's Prinzregenten Theatre, and Berlin's Komische Oper. His recitals have been broadcast on WQXR (New York City) and NDR Radio (Germany). On film, he appeared as the young Harry Truman (who initially trained to become a concert pianist) for PBS' American Experience.
A versatile and remarkable musician, Michael Fennelly played the Beethoven Choral Fantasy and Mozart's two piano concerto K.365 with the Saddleback Master Chorale, performed with the Talich Quartet in the Shostakovich Piano Quintet, Op.57, and conducted Lucia di Lammermoor in concert at Carnegie Hall.

Payment: Credit cards accepted (kind of...if you are staying there you can pay by credit card at checkout)
Dishes: Pancit, ampalaya (goya) dish, lechon kawali (roasted pork stomach), rice

This is the hotel restaurant at the Nichols Airport Hotel that we stayed at the night before flying home to Japan. There is a rooftop patio/bar and a first floor indoor restaurant, but they both use the same kitchen and menu. We sat on the rooftop because there was beer. San Miguel tastes best in the Philippines, that's for sure! There were some western dishes on the menu, but of course we had none of those. They are probably terrible. But the Filipino food we had there was actually very tasty and we both really enjoyed our dishes. I'm sure it was a bit expensive compared to what could be had nearby, but the environs were nice and hey, it's a hotel, what do you expect?

|Ampalaya (goya) and beef

Ever wish you could have a "do-over"? Ever find yourself wishing that you could somehow have a second chance? We've all had those times when we wish life would give us a mulligan and let us change some things. We've all been through days where we longed for the chance to tell a different story with the lives we've been given.
Throughout Luke's Gospel, Jesus comes into contact with people from all different walks of life. A Roman Centurion. A woman trapped in sin. A grieving widow. A rich young ruler. Yet, for all their differences, these people had one thing in common. Once they encountered Jesus, He rewrote their stories. He forever changed their lives. He can do the same for us. Jesus is more than willing to offer us a fresh start — a Rewrite to our own personal stories. All we have to do is hand Him the pen.
4/23: A Story of Faith (Luke 7:1-10)
4/30: A Story of Peace (Luke 7:36-50)
5/7: A Story of Restoration (Luke 8:26-39)
5/14: A Story of Life (Luke 7:11-17)
5/21: A Story of Gratitude (Luke 17:11-19)
5/28: A Story of Value (Luke 18:15-17)

SAN JOSE, Calif. (KGO) --Some lovingly refer to him as the "big man on campus" at San Jose State, but as one of the university's most recognizable figures, it's easy to understand why Yoshihiro Uchida has commanded the respect of staff and students for decades.
On Thursday afternoon, the legendary judo coach will be recognized by university officials for 70 years of service. The 98-year-old started the SJSU judo program in 1946 and was responsible for turning it into a collegiate powerhouse.
"It's hard to put into words," said current SJSU judo team member April Fehr. "He's a legend. Everyone in the judo community knows him."
VIDEO: 98-year-old San Jose Judo coach may have found the key to youth
Uchida has inspired thousands of athletes throughout his career. The hall on campus bearing his name is also home to the SJSU judo team's dojo. He's a constant fixture on the mat and attends practice every night providing wisdom and knowledge that's been invaluable to his students.
"Persist, that's all he cares about," said Fehr. "Do well in life, not just judo."
Uchida is also credited with leading the efforts to make judo an Olympic sport and served as coach of the U.S. Olympic Judo Team at the Tokyo Games in 1964. He hopes to make it back to the Olympics when the games return to Tokyo in 2020.

We conduct reference checks for clients regularly, and for the most part those references come directly from the candidates we have sourced, screened, interviewed, and vetted. If you think a candidate is going to give you every person he or she has worked with or for—think again. Your list of references will likely be hand-picked, well-vetted references, who have already been prepped in advance of your call, and who already understand the script they will deliver. If you ask deep probing questions of references on this preferred list, be prepared for some pushback, as you have now taken them off script. After all, this is supposed to be a layup call!
For these and other reasons, a back-channel reference becomes very important if your network is to provide the reach you will need to validate Mr. or Mrs. Wonderful. A back-channel reference (short and simple) is a path for you to get the inside scoop on a candidate who is known by someone you know or by some other connection in this space who knows your candidate. These are the references you've never heard about and who were left off the list given to you by the search firm or by your internal recruiter. There is real value in being able to validate someone's potential by a simple phone call; yet while this important tool is great, most hiring managers don't want to invest the time to dig a bit more. You should find the time!
At the same time, while the back channel is important, if used improperly it can have serious consequences that are not ideal for the candidate you are vetting. Here are a few standard questions asked by many search firms during a reference call:
• Tenure/relationship: How long have you known the candidate and where did you first meet?
• Overall style: How would you describe (in a single sentence) the overall style of the candidate if you could?
• Work ethic: Describe the candidate's work ethic.
• Major accomplishments: Is there a particular career achievement that you can think of for the candidate while they worked with or for you? What was it?
• Best way to manage the candidate: What is the best way to manage the candidate to get the greatest results from them?
• Communication skills: Describe their oral and written communication skills.
• Management/leadership skills: How does this candidate lead?
• Strengths: What is the single greatest strength of the candidate and why?
• Areas of improvement: Everyone should be in a constant state of improvement in their career. If you could hire or work with this candidate again—what would be the one area that you would coach them on based on your prior experience in working with them?
That is a fairly good list and one that will give you much of what you are looking for, but the back channel reference generally will either give you a thumbs up or down on your hiring decision. Psychometric testing, candidate questionnaires, education, previous experience, and references are pieces of the search process. Remember they are all data points for you to consider when making that critical hiring decision.
Adding a back channel reference to your process can usually validate the correct course you should take.

By James Agberebi:
Nigeria midfielder, John Ogu, believes Mikel Obi still has a role to play in the Super Eagles.
Chelsea midfielder Mikel was excluded from the squad for the Africa Cup of Nations qualifier against Tanzania as the Eagles laboured to a 0-0 draw.
Ogu, who was also left out by coach Sunday Oliseh, made a case for Mikel during a chat session with fans on Twitter.
"Mikel's experience is needed in any national team. He has won it all and it is not a fluke he has played under top managers," Hapoel Be'er Sheva midfielder Ogu wrote.
Ogu, who canvassed support for Oliseh, described the 0-0 draw with Tanzania as a fair result. He also refused to complain about his exclusion while praising the excellent Carl Ikeme.
"We need to give the coach (Sunday Oliseh) time to work, he is building," Ogu added.
"I am a player who will always respect the decision of the boss. Everyone cannot play. When it is my turn, I will play.
"Watching all Carl Ikeme did, it is an honour having another talent in the Super Eagles."

Dr. Samadi: Study on Marijuana vs. Alcohol Is Deceiving
A new study suggests that smoking marijuana is 114 times less harmful than drinking alcohol.
Researchers say in terms of mortality, marijuana is low-risk and alcohol is high-risk.
Chairman of the Department of Urology and Chief of Robotic Surgery at Lenox Hill Hospital Dr. David Samadi weighed in on the results of the study on "America's News Headquarters."
Dr. Samadi said it's a very deceiving and flawed study, explaining that the researchers studied lethal doses of marijuana, alcohol, heroin and cocaine. They determined that alcohol could kill a person faster than pot, but as Dr. Samadi explained, that's bad logic.
Dr. Samadi said that medical marijuana use is bad all-around and can be very dangerous, noting the effects on the brain can include inhibited cognitive skills, memory loss, psychosis, not to mention a five-fold increase in heart attacks for people who smoke pot for an extended period of time.
He added that pregnant women smoking weed in Colorado has led to many issues in their children, such as ADD.
"It's just not a safe drug over a long period," Dr. Samadi said. "Yes, short-term, heroin and alcohol are much worse than this, but also jumping from the building could be worse than alcohol. Does it make alcohol safer? Bad logic. It's just all-around bad."
Watch the clip above and get more information by checking out Dr. Samadi on Facebook.

Christian seems to be growing in his sleep every night. I swear he has gained 2 pounds in the past couple days and I am pretty sure he's grown an inch. Okay, probably not, but he sure does grow a lot. He's already outgrown almost all of his 3-6 months clothes and he barely got into them a month ago. None of the one piece outfits fit because the legs are too short. He has started to chunk up a lot and now I can't snap his jeans. He used to be so small, but I guess he's making up for it now.
Also, Christian has finally decided that sitting is his preferred position and he wants to do it all by himself. In fact, he wants to do everything all by himself. I finally got some pictures of him sitting, but halfway through he fell back and bonked his head pretty hard, so I surrounded him with pillows. He's getting pretty good at balancing though.

People laud the wide receiver class this year, just as they did last year. How do they compare? How does the projected strength of the top 3 wideouts compare to the 3 taken last year? -- Mike R.
The top three wide receivers from a year ago were Sammy Watkins (No. 4, Bills), Mike Evans (No. 7, Buccaneers) and Odell Beckham Jr. (No. 12, Giants) -- and they were all outstanding as rookies. Watkins had 982 yards and six touchdowns with a rough quarterback situation in Buffalo. Evans had 1,051 yards with a similarly poor quarterback situation. Beckham had 1,305 yards and 12 touchdowns in only 12 games. That is going to be difficult for the first three receivers selected this year to match but the feeling is Amari Cooper, Kevin White and DeVante Parker, probably the top three in the class, will excel. The thing you need to keep in mind is, for the most part, the teams picking near the top of the draft have poor quarterback situations. It's the teams picking near the end of the round that have the elite quarterbacks that regularly make deep playoff runs. A receiver's production is going to be tied to the ability of the passer. This class of wide receivers might have more depth than the one did a year ago and that is saying something. It will be interesting to see how many wideouts come off the board in Round 1. There could be five to seven receivers go in the first 32 picks.
