Elizabeth Travis, Ph.D., the associate vice president for women faculty programs at the University of Texas M.D. Anderson Cancer Center noted that meeting organizers--especially those who are women--need to advocate for women speakers in the EW interview with her in April. She noted:
- In the journal Academic Psychiatry, this letter calls attention to and documents the lack of women speakers at psychiatry grand rounds.
- Nina Simosko asked "Women speakers where are you?" when looking at the Web 2.0 conference agenda earlier this year. Only 20 of the 200 scheduled speakers were women; among keynote speakers, just two of the 20 were women. In addition to the dearth of female speakers on the program, she noted that many women speakers had not yet filled out their profiles on the meeting web site, but all of the male speakers had done so.
- Misbehaving.net, a blog on women and technology, noted that a public relations blogging conference had the same problem, generating lots of comments.
- Free Range Librarian looks at the issue in library conferences, asking whether women are less likely to pursue speaking opportunities, or whether organizers are less likely to recognize their acoomplishments?
When you're putting symposia together, maybe you put a junior faculty member in--you don't just pick your best friends which everyone tends to do. You have to be constantly challenging yourself....I organized an international meeting a year ago as a program chair and I said to my committee "Do not bring me a symposium without at least one woman speaker." There was the usual rolling of the eyes and comments like "Don't we want the best?" That's used frequently to challenge women. I said "You have just insulted every woman in this organization."So what can women speakers (and their audiences) do to get more women speakers on the program? Many of the online writers have started speakers' bureaus, listings and other resources to demonstrate the availability of women speakers, and others are speaking out on blogs or complaining directly to meeting organizers. As a speaker, you should consider these steps to get yourself on the program for your professional or community meetings:
And remember, when you're in a position to suggest a speaker, have some women's names on hand. Helping others to get a speaking engagement is a favor many will be happy to return.
- Get to know the program organizers: Every group has a committee or person tasked with assembling and vetting speakers. Make direct contact with the program organizers and ask what they're looking for. Be prepared to tell them how your participation as a speaker will add to the program.
- Make sure your availability is known: Many program chairs tell me that they spend lots of time looking for willing and available speakers. To make sure they know you're available and willing, promote that on your website, in your bio, and certainly whenever you're networking, both online and in person.
- Suggest topics on which you're willing to speak: Make sure your promotions and conversations include a few suggested topics on which you're willing and able to speak, so program organizers know what you can offer. Be as specific as possible--rather than "communications," suggest more focused topics like "media relations with bloggers" or "communications as a networking skill."
- Promote your existing speaking engagements: Share details on your forthcoming or just-past speaking engagements with friends, colleagues and networking contacts. When people can see that you're already a speaker, they get affirmation that you'll work out for their audience.
- Offer to help organize a panel: If you have a topic on which you'd like to speak, offer to pull together related speakers who can fill out a panel. Or, offer to moderate--a great speaking gig that ties together all the other speakers' points.

Originally from Mediterranean Europe, artichokes are long-stemmed vegetables with spiny leaves shaped like pineapples.
The edible part is formed by the heart of the flower. This vegetable has different characteristics depending on the variety involved: Brittany: thick, round and heavy; Laon: big and green; Provence: violet in colour. Of the Spanish ones, the Blanca de Tudela is outstanding. This variety is largely grown in La Rioja and its main characteristics are: medium sized with a rounded and slightly elliptical shape. It is a crunchy, juicy product, with a slightly bitter flavour. It is usually eaten fresh, although it is a vegetable very suitable for making preserves. In cooking it offers many possibilities for presentation, above all as a garnish and in salads.
- 产品类型:: Vegetables
- 时期: All year round.
- 起源: The artichokes producing area in La Rioja covers all the area belonging to this community.
- 何处购买?: Artichokes from La Rioja can mostly be bought in specialist shops and greengrocers in La Rioja and adjoining provinces.
- 菜谱: Calahorra artichokes in their own sauce
- Energy: Low
- Cholesterol: Low
- 备注: Rich in iron and potassium.

The Yankees scraped past the Indians 3-1 last night in Cleveland, extending their AL East lead thanks in part to Derek Jeter's two hits.
Not a hit, it seems, is Jeter with the Cleveland fans. Here's one of a certain age giving Jeets the jerk-off, and we do hope when we get old we don't give a fuck as much as this guy. [WWOR]

Suspend doesn't work on my laptop. When the laptop tries to suspend, the screen turns off briefly, some system-looking text appears for a bit, the screen turns off again, then the screen turns back on and I am at a locked-screen prompt.
I tried:
- The suspend button on the unity menu
sudo pm-suspend
sudo acpitool -s
dbus-send --system --print-reply --dest="org.freedesktop.UPower" /org/freedesktop/UPower org.freedesktop.UPower.Suspend
- Deleting
/etc/pm/sleep.d(as suggested here)
sudo modprobe -r tpm_tis
- Modfying /proc/acpi/wakeup to switch everything but the power button to disabled.
- Putting
SUSPEND_MODULES="alx"into /etc/pm/config.d/modules
- Writing a script that forces the graphic card to reboot itself using a "kick" from chvt1 and chvt7 and putting it in
/etc/pm/sleep.d/20_custom-ehci_hcd(@Sushantp606's answer below)
- Trying the same thing as #9 in a different way (the third part of @Sushantp606's answer below)
sudo s2ram
This kernel doesn't have KMS support. Machine is unknown. This machine can be identified by: sys_vendor = "Hewlett-Packard" sys_product = "HP Pavilion dv4 Notebook PC" sys_version = "F.24" bios_version = "F.24"
None of these solved the problem. #9 changed the behavior a little (it cycled more quickly between trying to go to sleep and waking up).
Any suggestions what I can look at doing next?

Warm desserts are just the thing to have when it's raining and cold outside. Butterscotch pudding and champorado are two of my favorite cold-weather foods, but when it's time for dessert my thoughts turn to chocolate chip cookies, among other desserts, of course.
Now, chocolate chip cookies freshly baked and straight from the oven into my gaping maw are just the thing, but when I want something a little fancier, kicking up the cookie is the way to go. For that, it's best to combine elements of cold and hot. I'm a big fan of dual-temperature desserts: there's something incredibly sensual, feral almost, about two contrasts happening simultaneously, and in my mouth, at that!
I recently had two desserts that are a play upon the chocolate chip cookie, one at Bubba Gump's and one at Chili's. Both restaurants use an enormous cookie as their playground but it's there where they diverge.
Here's the one at Bubba Gump's. Called a Chocolate Chip Cookie Sundae (P250), it's a warm chocolate chip cookie topped with twin scoops (peaks! haha) of vanilla ice cream laced with caramel. A smattering of chopped peanuts and the gratuitous splodge of whipped cream all but complete this picture of delectation. The fact that it's served in an individual cast iron pan ups its appeal factor for me.
I was introduced to this dessert a few years ago by two former officemates. The three of us shared it after a light lunch and I vaguely recall how we fought over the last bites. What I remember vividly however is how moist the cookie was "" so good was it that the cookie could've been 12 inches wide and it still wouldn't have been enough for me and my officemates. It's very easy to overbake a cookie especially in a cast iron pan which regulates heat super efficiently. That may be why this cookie-dessert that I had a few days ago was dry "" nothing like what I enjoyed immensely years back. Oh well, perhaps it was an off day.
Chili's calls their dessert a Chocolate Chip Paradise Pie (P325). I distinctly remember this being served in a cast iron pan as well, but it's since been relegated to a white plate "" functional but not as aesthetically exciting. What it is however, is a better cookie in terms of moistness and flavor. A bar cookie as opposed to a drop cookie, this one has coconut and chopped walnuts for more texture and chew. A single scoop of vanilla ice cream rests atop a hot fudge puddle. Rowrrr.
Whichever dessert you prefer, make sure that the cookie comes to you hot or at the very least, warm. Nothing can spoil these beauts faster than a cold cookie.

GOOD NEWS from the fiscal front: The federal deficit is shrinking faster than expected. During the first half of fiscal 2013, revenues have come in greater than forecast, and spending, less; Goldman Sachs expects the total deficit to equal 4.8 percent of gross domestic product (GDP), rather than 5.6 percent as the investment bank once believed. Also, Goldman says the deficit will decline to 2.7 percent of GDP by fiscal 2015, as opposed to 2.8 percent, as previously estimated.
These numbers reflect the tax rate increases and spending restraints imposed by Congress and President Obama over the last two years, as well as the economy's continuing modest growth. The recovery is generating jobs and corporate profits, albeit at a less-than-desirable rate, which translates into lower outlays for unemployment insurance and higher tax receipts. And though declining deficits may create "fiscal drag" on growth, Goldman sees that effect diminishing after next month.
Now the not-so-good news. The improved medium-term fiscal outlook reflects several factors that can't be counted on to persist: a poorly understood deceleration in health-care spending, for example, and Fannie Mae's delivery to the Treasury of $59.4 billion due to unusually large first quarter profits. Indeed, to the extent the government's improved financial outlook relies on the future profits of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, it is unhealthy, since that may reduce Congress's incentive to revamp those entities.
Alas, there's a chance that Congress and the president will take the declining short-term deficit as an excuse to delay action on the long-term one. Absent a crisis, they are less likely to undertake the politically difficult reforms, especially to entitlement programs, without which the United States cannot stabilize its long-term finances.
And the latest numbers confirm that those reforms remain necessary: Notably, spending on Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid have all risen more than projected so far this year, according to the Congressional Budget Office, notwithstanding the slower health-care growth rate. Despite its short-term optimism, Goldman left its long-term deficit estimates unchanged, citing uncontrolled entitlement growth, combined with an inevitable rise in interest rates.
There's another argument against budgetary complacency: the policy priorities embodied in current law. Some of those policies, such as massive crop-insurance subsidies to farmers, would be impossible to justify even if debt were not a problem. And, of course, the sequester's across the board cuts to defense and non-defense discretionary spending represent the abdication of policy choice.
Taken together, current law entails a massive shift of resources into health and retirement entitlements, and out of national defense and discretionary spending — everything from federal law enforcement to Head Start. To continue on this course is to short-change both younger generations and the core responsibilities of national government.

Remember the Brütal Bus Soapbox? Not only did it finish this weekend's Los Angeles Red Bull Soapbox Race intact, it set a top speed record of 46.1 mph.
Team Ironheade of San Francisco took top honors and a VIP NASCAR experience for their winning entry. What's more, their speed record is an all-time track and event best. Team member Christine Phelan says that hunk of debris clinging to the front "is actually a piece of the speaker we busted through at the start of our skit." In profile, however, it looks kind of like a nasty gargoyle face, so all's still cool.
And here's a video. Ironheade's epic run (and speaker smash) is toward the end:

Have you heard of absurd literature? No? Yes? Or are you waiting for Godot to tell you about it?
But Beckett isn't the only author writer of absurd literature. The best representative of course, but there is always room for more, room to explore right? You don't wanna be homogeneous right?
And so in comes the play, "Who's afraid of Virginia Woolf?" written by the American author Edward Albee. The plot is nothing complicated: it is simply a story about two couples: Martha and George, the older couple,who invite Nick and Honey (the younger couple) for a late night drink after a party. The play is divided into 3 acts each with their telling titles.
But in the fairly uncomplicated plot, lies a whole new insight into the trying, absurd, fragile and strained relation of Martha and George. During the course of the party, emotional games are played, secrets are revealed through the complex layering of the plot. It is clear right in the first part that their marriage is a complete breakdown and in order to sustain it, they have to play psychological games and try to beat the other down through humiliation and fear tactics. In order to sustain the normative marriage they have to take on absurd tactics and at the heart of this is the constant mention of their son who never appears in the play but is talked about throughout.
The play then is trying to critique the pressures put on every individual to fit into roles the society prescribes without giving alternatives and how utterly disastrous these pressures can be if and when such normative modes of living don't work out. What do you do if your marriage does not work, when your dreams of professional greatness do not go according to plan? Compounding this problem is also the gender roles enmeshed within these prescriptive notions: the binary of production and reproduction that binds a woman and man not allowing them to explore other possibilities and compelling to view their inability to fit into the gender roles as a failure for themselves. So for example, if a man is not able to get a good job and sustain his family, he is viewed as a failure because of the pressure on him to be the breadwinner of the family. He is not allowed to think that there can be a possibility for allowing the women in his life to share the responsibility of earning. Marriage and career and having a family are projected as the ideal modes of living in a human society and so there are no other possibilities provided for other modes or alternatives. Anything less than the ideal is unacceptable and worse, a failure. This can lead to utter breakdown of your identity and selves as every individual is conditioned for long about these ideas and how they are the measures of success and when don't work, your very idea of what a life should be is dismantled and therefore living becomes absurd and meaningless.
The play is also a lot about the typical modernist ideas of how language is inadequate to express the breakdown of lives in the 2oth century.
In the hazy daze of alcohol that the couple immerse themselves into, the reader will be pressed to figure out reality from illusion but that is the charm and bitterness of the play. You have to keep constructing the truth, taking cues from their wild language, and wilder games of psychological torture, construct the world that they have constructed for themselves and shatter that illusion and then get to know the truth of their lives. But it isn't like a mere detective novel where you solve the puzzle with the one sole truth you can divine from the plot. It constantly keeps you in a flux and you can probably get the truth but perhaps not be able to anything with it because though the play tries to sort out its loose ends end finish with a proper closing, the reader is left to ponder on what will happen to the marriages of both the couples as the breakdown of the the older couple seems complete although they are now trying to get back on a stable & non illusory path. However, Nick and Honey see in the older couple their own expectations of a marriage and a family and if these expectations are not fulfilled, then will they also fall apart at the seams like Martha and George?
No one can really tell but what we can do is perhaps not put the weight of all our expectations on one person and one institution? What do you think? Leave a comment.

The Seven Games in 11 Days Blues: The Lakers Lose to the Pistons, 97-83The NBA regular season is an 82 game grind and when a team plays seven games in 11 days right out of the box it is not likely that the seventh game will be a virtuoso performance. The L.A. Lakers began the season better than a lot of people expected them to but they laid an egg on Friday night versus the Detroit Pistons, losing 97-83. Lakers Coach Phil Jackson did not mince any words in describing how his team played: "That was as bad a performance as I think we've had here in a long time." The Pistons were without the services of All-Star guard Richard Hamilton, who hyperextended his right (shooting) elbow, but Tayshaun Prince and Chauncey Billups more than picked up the slack. Prince tied his career-high with 31 points, while Billups had 21 points and nine assists. Kobe Bryant led the Lakers with 19 points, 17 of which he scored in the fourth quarter as he tried to single-handedly lift his lifeless team to victory. Lamar Odom had 16 points, eight rebounds and seven assists.
Billups did most of his damage early, scoring 12 points in the first quarter as Detroit took a 27-21 lead. The film of the second quarter will not be appearing at the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame any time soon. Detroit did not score until Flip Murray's layup nearly four minutes into the period; the Lakers were hardly burning up the nets, producing four points in that same time span. The Pistons picked up the pace a little down the stretch and led 45-37 at halftime. Bryant shot 1-3 from the field in the first half. On a few occasions he drove to the hoop and attracted double team coverage. He was content to pass to his teammates, none of whom made shots with any regularity; not one Laker managed to score in double figures in the first half. The Pistons outrebounded the Lakers 29-19. After the game, Jackson suggested that the Lakers had tried too hard to force feed the ball to center Andrew Bynum, who finished with six points on 3-4 shooting: "We wanted to go inside to Andrew and that cost us. We lost the ball a number of times trying to do that." Even though Bryant was hardly dominating the ball, Odom did little with his opportunities, scoring just four points, although he did have six rebounds and three assists.
The third quarter was a complete disaster for the Lakers. Prince had 17 of his points in that period, running off nine straight at one point and crossing over Bryant so badly on one play that the Lakers' star actually fell down. The Lakers committed seven turnovers in the third quarter and trailed 70-53 going into the fourth quarter.
Bryant went to the bench with 2:28 remaining in the third quarter and applied a heat wrap to his ailing knee. The treatment must have helped, because when he returned to the game with 8:43 left he suddenly looked like the guy who scored 81 points in a game last year. The Lakers trailed 76-60 and Rasheed Wallace soon made it 79-60 with a three point play. Bryant scored seven points in the next three minutes but the Lakers still trailed 85-68 because they could not get any stops. Bryant decided to do something about that. He read Billups coming off of a baseline screen, jumped into the passing line like Deion Sanders, intercepted the ball and was off to the races. Billups grabbed him from behind and the clear path foul meant that Bryant would get two free throws and the Lakers would retain possession. Bryant made them both to cut the lead to 87-76 and got a good look at a three pointer that could have pulled the Lakers to within eight with more than three minutes left but he missed the shot. Billups then hit a turnaround jumper as the shot clock expired, a real dagger that put Detroit up 89-76. Bryant drove to the hoop aggressively and bagged two free throws to get the Lakers back within 11. A comeback seemed improbable but not impossible until Odom committed his third foul, threw his wristbands in disgust and was ejected after receiving his second technical foul. Billups made all three free throws and Detroit led 92-78.
Bryant was less than impressed with his team's performance: "We played terrible. We kind of ran around like a chicken with our head cut off."
Andrew Bynum is the youngest player in the league, so it is not surprising that he has his ups and downs. NBA Shootaround's Tim Legler likes what he sees overall, though, noting that Bynum "catches the ball cleanly and finishes in traffic." Greg Anthony added that Michael Jordan's championship teams went with a center by committee approach, which is an option for the Lakers when Kwame Brown and Chris Mihm get healthy--but the word out of L.A. is that Mihm will need surgery on his injured ankle and will be out for five to eight months.
ESPN's Jim Gray interviewed Lakers Assistant Coach Kareem Abdul-Jabbar during the game and asked him about his protege's progress. Jabbar said that Bynum is "starting to understand how to use his talents in the flow of the game. It's a very difficult thing to understand what to do and when to do it even though mechanically you can do everything." He added, "They threw him in the deep end of the pool" by giving Bynum so many minutes this early in the season--of course, the Lakers had no choice with Brown and Mihm on the shelf.

Penn State Beaver students hosted a Day of the Dead celebration last Monday and raised more than $300 for cancer-related charities, including the Susan G. Komen For the Cure organization. The students are members of the Spanish classes taught by Robin Bower, associate professor of Spanish. The funds are from faculty, staff, students, and members of the public who visited the exhibit.
The Day of the Dead is a Mexican custom that some associate with the United States' custom of Halloween. But the customs have different origins, and their attitudes toward death are different. The Day of the Dead celebrates the memories of the deceased. It is one of Mexico's biggest holidays and Day of the Dead celebrations are becoming more common in the United States, especially in areas with large Hispanic populations.
For more information about next year's Day of the Dead event, contact Bower at firstname.lastname@example.com or 724-773-3886.

Xiotech's go-much-faster storage brick
Adds SSD speed
Xiotech has announced its go-faster hybrid ISE storage brick containing a mix of solid state drives and spinning disk drives.
Xiotech's storage brick, the ISE (Intelligent Storage Element), is a single super disk drive, a sealed enclosure of 2.5-inch drives that are virtualised as a single disk, with drive manufacturer diagnostic and management software enabling much better recovery from drive errors and high performance. The ISEs come with a five-year warranty and can be bought on their own or as part of an Emprise drive array which provides upper-level storage array controller management functions.
The 3U Hybrid ISE combines 20 2.5-inch, 10,000rpm, 900GB hard drives and 20 200GB, multi-level cell, 2.5-inch solid state drives, both with 6Gbit/s SAS interfaces linked to a 30GB backplane, in an "Active-Active" storage pool that is used for all volumes allocated to the ISE, and improves performance both for each volume and overall.
Existing disk drive-only ISE performance varies between 8,453 RAID 1 IOPS for the 4.8TB model and 12,603 IOPS for the 19.2TB model. A 14.4TB hybrid ISE does a theoretical 63,999 RAID 10 IOPS, with Xiotech saying it has a sustained IOPS rate of more than 60,000. A rack of these things will run at almost 900,000 IOPS.
Xiotech gleefully tells us that a rack unit of Hybrid ISE delivers 21,333 IOPS, contrasting with an IBM DS8700's 786 IOPS, a NetAp FAS 3270A's 2,430 and an HP/3PAR F400's 1,163 IOPS. The hybrid ISE is also a darn sight cheaper on $/GB terms at $14.03 compared to the other suppliers' kit, with IBM being $46.35, NetApp $23.51 and HP/3PAR $20.07.
The Hybrid ISE's speed partly comes from new ISE storage processors, as Xiotech uses Intel Jasper Forest processors in the Hybrid ISE with memory ramped up from one to eight GB. Host access is by Fibre Channel with from two 4Gbit/s FC ports to eight 8Gbit/s ones.
How does the data get apportioned between the disk drives and SSDs in the hybrid ISE? Xiotech says there is continuous and adaptive data placement (CADP) plus application profiling. This CADP is "based on Return On Investment calculations from weighted I/O counts." Automated data movement between SSD and disk drive tiers starts within a minute of I/O commencing and is dynamically managed in real-time.
With the profiling of applications such as Exchange, Oracle, SAP and SQL Server, "users record the I/O patterns for an application and replay to improve overall application responsiveness."
Xiotech chief technology officer Steve Sicola said: "Hybrid ISE senses and responds in real-time to "IO storms". The idea is that an app's I/O profile sets a baseline and any jump above this can be used to move more of the app's hot data into SSD storage to cope better with the increased I/O load. The Hybrid ISE software reacts quickly to I/O load increases or decreases for such applications.
Users and apps don't see separate flash and disk storage pools, just a single storage pool. Xiotech says performance and capacity both scale linearly.
Hybrid ISE volatile cache contents are protected by a super-capacitor-based system instead of batteries.
The use of TBs of flash storage is steadily growing as disk performance fails to keep up with the I/O demands of virtualised server applications. HP is working with Violin Memory to stuff PCIe-connected flash into ProLiant Servers. TMS has doubled the Fibre Channel connect speed of its RamSan-630 flash array. In effect it is now understood that storage arrays must have a flash supercharger, either in the array, alongside it or inside the accessing servers in order to keep up with what Sicola calls I/O storms and with the everyday I/O demands of read-intensive apps such as OLTP and data warehousing.
The 14.4TB Hybrid ISE comes with a 5-year warranty, like the disk-only ISEs, and costs around $99,840. Early access units are available from the beginning of February (i.e. next week) for validation and proof of concept testing and the product will be generally available in the second quarter of this year. ®

'You will look very silly said Mr Salteena with a dry laugh.
Well so will you said Ethel in a snappy tone and she ran out of the room with a very superier run throwing out her legs behind and her arms swinging in rithum.
Well said the owner of the house she has a most idiotick run.'
Anyway, this is my last word on the matter. It was a dreadful game of football with less entertainment value than the game where you hold a chocolate bar fractionally within the each of a small child, make them jump for it, and then move the bar. There were fewer moves of footballing quality than your average desert tribesman has toes, following a double limb amputation. Neither team appeared particularly keen on playing football: the Dutch were completely blatant about it, however Busquets' role in the Spanish side is just van Bommel light, and it is telling that they haven't been digging the boot in off the field as well.
Whining about refereeing decisions is an irrelevance: on balance neither side benefited - there are days when Holland could have been down to nine at half time, and days when they could have had to abandon the game, Colin style. Yes, Elia could have have a freekick, but he's also the Dutch version of Shaun Wright-Phillips and had already lost the ball. Yes, there are other decisions that could have gone other ways, but there is no way it can be argued with a straight face that the failure to show sufficient cards cost the Dutch. That goes right in the same box as those blaming England's exit on the linesman - no, we lost because our defence may have been the worst in the tournament outside Kim Jong Il United's, and you lost because Robben blew a one-on-one.
Now get over it.

Is cloud computing really catching on in the enterprise? Well, that depends on who you talk to, recent surveys have found.
RightScale, a company that acts as a broker between end users and public cloud service providers, released the most recent results of its annual State of the Cloud report and found that about 75 percent of respondents surveyed were using the cloud in some capacity.
CEO Michael Crandell says his company's evidence shows users are becoming more comfortable using the cloud.
About a year and a half ago, pundits spoke about the technology being in an adolescent stage, he says, adding, "We're getting to see what the cloud looks like when it grows up now and becomes a young adult."
[ CLOUD NEWS: Pivotal puts PaaS in the spotlight ]
But 70 percent of organizations using the cloud seems like a lot to some people, such as Forrester Research cloud guru James Staten.
A Forrester developers survey found quite different results from RightScale, in fact just about the opposite: 70 percent of developers surveyed had not used cloud computing in an official capacity at their business.
What's the deal?
The devil's in the details, and for one, it depends on who you talk to. The RightScale survey of more than 600 IT workers came from a community to people that had somehow, some way interacted with RightSacle in the past -- they had registered on the company's website, dropped a business card in a bowl at a trade show, or are a customer (although RightScale says only 30 percent of respondents were customers). The firm's VP of Marketing Kim Weins says respondents to RightScale's survey admittedly have some "affinity" to cloud computing.
Forrester, on the other hand, surveyed developers, not necessarily just those who would be more likely in the cloud, and the results differed significantly.
So then, where are we really in the cloud adoption cycle?
Staten, the Forrester analyst, says it's still early to make a judgment. The cloud is growing up and businesses are becoming more comfortable using it, even if it is limited use cases for most businesses.
"The technologies are maturing faster than the customer base, which means we should expect to see an acceleration in developer use of cloud in the next five years," Staten says, adding that vendors licking their chops about a huge uptake in cloud usage shouldn't expect a "hockey stick" curve of adoption, though. "Enterprises move way slower than any of us would like."
Virtustream, another provider of both public and private platforms for building clouds, did its own survey with research firm Neovise and found results closer to Forrester's than RightScale's. Of 822 IT professionals Neovise surveyed, 37 percent were found to use public cloud infrastructure as a service (IaaS).
Both the Virtustream/Neovise and RightScale surveys found that as people use the cloud more, they get more comfortable with it and expand their usage.
The users are the believers, the non-users are the skeptics, Crandell says. A whopping 77 percent of respondents to the RightScale survey said they use more than one cloud, be it a hybrid model that would include both a public cloud and an internal private cloud, or multiple public clouds.
Paul Burns, the Neovise analyst who conducted the survey for Virtustream, reported similar results, with 74 percent of respondents using multiple clouds.
"The benefits of cloud computing grow with increased usage," Crandell says. "It seems to make sense: the more you use it, the better you get with it."
As another example, in last year's RightScale survey, 33 percent of respondents noted that security was their top concern with using the cloud; this year, that dropped almost in half to 18 percent listing security as their top concern. Crandell says that points to an increased focus public cloud providers have put on security, such as leading providers like Amazon Web Services and Terremark, which is owned by Verizon, being certified for use by the federal government and by healthcare privacy standards.
So will cloud be ubiquitous?
Staten, the Forrester researcher, says we'll never get to the point where every developer is using the cloud. Some don't have the skills or the motivation or their jobs just will not require it.
"But we do expect to get to the point where nearly every company is using cloud platforms to some degree," Staten says. "The economic and agile benefits are just too compelling."

Donald Trump's campaign manager said on morning news shows Monday that it's not true that Trump's staff has stopped the candidate from tweeting.
Trump has exhibited unusual restraint on social media in the final days of the campaign. The New York Times reported on Sunday that aides "have finally wrested away" his Twitter account.
President Barack Obama seized on the report at a voter rally in Florida, telling the crowd that anyone who can't be trusted with a Twitter account shouldn't be trusted with control of the America's nuclear weapons.
U.S. & World
Stories that affect your life across the U.S. and around the world.
Trump's tweetstorms and retweets, often targeting his critics, have gotten him in trouble and inflicted damage on his campaign.
When asked Monday about the Times report by NBC's "Today" show, campaign manager Kellyanne Conway said: "No, it's not true."
On MSNBC's "Morning Joe," Conway insisted that Trump has his phone with him and will probably call her after her appearance on the show is over.
She told host Mika Brzezinski: "It's a mystery to all of us when this man sleeps, so I'm sure he's watching us right now and then he will call Mika or me afterwards."

Rep. Howard Berman, gripped in a tough reelection battle with fellow Democratic Rep. Brad Sherman for the same San Fernando Valley congressional district seat, is expected to get endorsements Monday from two prominent Republican U.S. senators.
Sens. John McCain of Arizona and Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, plus Sen. Joe Lieberman of Connecticut, the former Democrat turned independent, will back Berman, the congressman's campaign confirmed Sunday.
Although Democrats outnumber Republicans in the recently redrawn district 48% to 26%, both candidates have been courting GOP voters as well as those without party affiliation, who make up about 21% of registered voters there.
Berman finished second, 10 points behind Sherman, in the seven-candidate June primary and has been scrambling to make up the difference.

What kind of anime villains do you like the best? The generic "I'm gonna blow up the world for no reason or rule the world!", simple villains who don't have any powers but use their mind to commit their crimes, or some other type of villain that you just think is awesome? I like the ones who have really awesome powers and can hold up in a fight but play mind games on the heroes just for fun

Serbia - Exit Europe
Serbia is a divided country, and the border runs right through people's heads. On the one hand, there are people like Milorad Mirčić, who does not think rock 'n' roll has any political relevance. The deputy leader of the Serbian Radical Party also believes that the overthrow of the Milošević regime in 2000 was a coup d'état organised by the Americans. He calls reports of the genocide in Srebrenica "propaganda".
On the other hand, there are people like Nataša Kandić of the Belgrade Centre for Human Rights who have been working for years to alter public perceptions. Nataša believes that Serbia must stop regarding itself as a victim and that the crimes committed in the name of Serbia should be made public. In 2005 she forwarded a video tape to the media that shows the execution of six Bosniaks from Srebrenica by members of the Serbian paramilitary unit The Scorpions.
Return to Europe shows that recently the borders in people's minds are beginning to crumble as Serbians develop a keener interest in more foresighted movements. For instance, the democrats won the elections in 2008 despite Kosovo's declaration of independence. It seems Serbia does want to be a part of Europe. The country has been given a new chance, says journalist Dejan Anastasijević. "However, we shouldn't underestimate the capacity of our politicians to fail to grab hold of a sure thing," he laughs grimly – past experience has taught him to be cynical.
If you would like to watch the complete film please go to ESI's Youtube page.
Exit Europe, the film about Serbia, is not exactly what you'd call a comedy. It speaks about the attacks on courageous journalists, about dyed-in-the-wool nationalists, the assassination of Zoran Djindjić and the decline of the textile industry in Leskovac. And yet the film still manages to show the potential of a country that has suffered greater political upheavals in recent years than any other in the Balkans.

Just to let everyone know that I took delivery of the postcard flyers for the fair this morning. Please let me know if and when you would like some to start distributing to friends and potential customers. Where possible it would be good to collect them from me at fairs to save on postage costs (which our local post lady has told me are about to increase again!)
I will be at the Frome Retro Fair this weekend, so will have some with me there.

Welcome to The Sleep Shirt!
A modern version of the classic knee-length nightshirt, the Long Sleep Shirt is one of our best selling shapes. This one is long enough that you won't feel uncomfortable wearing it in front of house guests or in-laws. The linen is a medium weight, it isn't too heavy but it does feel a bit crispy at first. Once you've washed it a few times you'll find the fabric softens and feels great.

What's new - Nov 2001
|Another sixteen species from DS9 go up today, mostly on the Alpha Quadrant Other Species part of the species list.
|Size Comparison
|I've had a go at drawing a size comparison image for V'Ger from TMP. This is based in equal parts on the original flyover sequence, some of the original artwork created for the movie, the extra wide angle shots of V'Ger in the director's edition DVD and a fair bit of guesswork. The overall shape is certainly correct, though the proportions may not be. Much surface detail has had to be glossed over, but I may do some more work on this in the future. At 97.5 kilometres long, V'Ger is the largest vessel in Star Trek history and on our size comparison chart by a comfortable margin.
|I finally got a half-decent snap of the Yeager class, so this has been added to the images page of the Yeager entry.
More importantly, we have added an "Additional" page to the Other Ships list. This is rather like the "Other Species" pages, in that it has various ships which we know only a little about or which we don't see very good images of, but which we don't know enough about to do a full entry on. We've started with twelve ships from the later seasons of Voyager.
|LOTS of people have asked me if I'm going to include information about Enterprise, so I've added this to the FAQ.
|Welcome Page
|We have re-vamped the welcome page somewhat, since we could never be bothered to keep the statistics on the old page up to date.
|Thirty five new species have been added to the "other species" sections. This brings the total number of species to an amazing three hundred and fifty two!
|Movie Guides
|The reivew of TMP has been expanded to include a detailed review of the new director's edition DVD.
|We've started a run-through of the lesser known species seen in Deep Space Nine, and have added about a eight or ten to the other species pages. More will follow in the near future.
|Two more articles go up today. One discusses various anomalies in the warp speeds we've seen over the years and talks through the warp highways idea. This covers some of the same ground as the maps article, but that is due for a re-write sometime in the future anyway. The second article discusses how many planets are in the Federation.

Art made it possible
The 61st Leonard Bernstein Festival of the Creative Arts excited and inspired the campus community to imagine the impossible.
Brandeis dared to "imagine the impossible" during the 61st annual Leonard Bernstein Festival of the Creative Arts, April 25 to 28.
This year's theme inspired the campus-wide "Imagine That" project, a large-scale art installation in which campus community members were asked to react to "Imagine a world where…," "I wish ___ were possible," or "Imagination brings…" Hundreds of responses were tucked inside ornamental bulbs that were suspended in the Shapiro Campus Center atrium. They created a perfect backdrop for the festival's kick-off — a sing-along of John Lennon's "Imagine."
Nearly 7,000 people attended the four-day celebration, which included nationally acclaimed performers and visual artists showcased together with music, dance, theater and artwork by more than 400 Brandeis students, alumni, faculty and staff.
The festival was founded in 1952 by the legendary Brandeis faculty member Leonard Bernstein, who believed that "the art of an era is a reflection of the society in which it is produced, and through creative endeavors the thoughts and expression which characterize each generation are revealed and transformed."
For more information about this annual event, see the Festival of the Arts website and the story on BrandeisNow.

It's the kind of stunt we used to see in the go-go days of the Tech revolution, and if you look up today, you might just have to smile.
Or, at least pull out your cell phone and take a quick picture.
Mobli, a New York-based company, wants you to give up on Instagram, and choose its photo and video sharing app instead. How to break through the "Oh, great, yet another photo-sharing company" clutter? It's going to fly a plane over Facebook headquarters a few times over the next couple of days, buzzing the Instagram owner with a 100-foot banner advertising its contest.
U.S. & World
Here's the deal: Give up Instagram for Mobli, and you're entered into a contest to win $100,000. The company will surely get at least that much publicity by flying over Facebook; it will probably follow this up by showing off photos from its big winner.
The contest "natch" even has its own hashtag: #mylastinstagram.
Good luck, and happy shooting.

Will.i.am, the Black Eyed Peas member and occasional movie star, has a pretty good handle on being cool. And Coca-Cola Co. is betting he can transfer his hipness into a new line of recycled gear.
The green-goods industry has been growing in recent years but is still struggling with a perception among many mainstream consumers that recycled products are drab-looking and overpriced.
The will.i.am partnership aims to sex up that image with the Ekocycle line, which will attempt to make green living "aspirational yet attainable" with partners such as Dr. Dre and New Era and products such as $349 headphones and $32 hats.
Items will be partially made from recycled plastic bottles, aluminum cans and other reusable materials.
"By making products that contain recycled materials more attractive to both businesses and consumers, everyone can do their part to keep the cycle going to turn discarded waste into cool, new items," said will.i.am in a statement.
The headphones, from the Beats line created by Dr. Dre and music producer Jimmy Iovine, is to hit stores this fall. The hats are to go on sale early next year.
Other celebrities have launched their own eco-friendly product lines. This summer, reality television alum Lauren Conrad began selling her XO(eco) collection, featuring totes and fashion accessories made from Repreve, a fabric made from recycled bottles.
Skepticism grows over products touted as eco-friendly
Wal-Mart's motive is no secret: Going green saves it money

Mill Supply - Making Hard to Find Parts, Easy to Find. Founded in 1944 by Milbert Moritz (hence Mill Supply) we started by selling automotive supplies to body shops and has now grown to providing thousands of hard to find products to businesses and individuals like you.
Walk-in Van Parts. We specialize in stepvan parts and want to make your experience a pleasant one. Big names like Workhorse, Morgan Olson, Utilimaster and Union City Body can be intimidating when you are looking for replacement parts. But rest assured, you've come to the right place. Our first printed catalog for stepvan parts came out in 1984 with 28 pages and just over 500 products listed. Today, there are over 200 pages packed with over 3,500 parts to meet your needs. Recently we have added chassis parts for Freightliner, Ford, GM and Workhorse. This introduced parts like brakes, fuel tanks, steering and suspension components. With thousands of products for walk-in stepvans we know we can help get your truck up and running again.
Restoration Body Panels. We give it the heading AUTO BODY, but if you are restoring a vehicle and looking for restoration panels then you've come to the right place. We pride ourselves on carrying the best rust repair panels available for your vehicle and we know you will be pleased with what you find. We include rust repair panels for American and foreign cars, trucks, vans and SUVs beginning in the 1940's and continuing up to the present. Most of our panels are die-stamped heavy-gauge panels that match the body lines and definition of the original equipment manufacturer's (OEM) part. Many of the panels are treated steel or have an electro-deposit primer finish. So when you look at your vehicle and see that there are huge holes and the body panels are slowly disappearing be sure to check out what we have. Whether is it a rocker panel, cab corner, door bottom or rear quarter panel section, if it's available in the aftermarket, you'll find it here.
Snow Plow Parts. Mill Supply has been selling snow plow parts since 1986 adding 1,000's of parts since then to keep up the with the growing needs of the industry. We know that most people don't even think snow until they see snow, but that doesn't stop us from shipping year round. You know that shoe or cutting edge needs replacing when it is pretty much gone. Don't wait until there is a snow storm to find out you are a sitting duck because you didn't keep up with maintenance. There is no time like the present to be sure your snow plow equipment is in proper working order.
In season or out of season, Mill Supply is your source for snow plow parts. You can find parts for Meyer, Western, Fisher, Boss, Curtis, Sno-Way and other major brands right here. We also carry all the SaltDogg salt and sand spreaders and quality Chapin walk-behind spreaders to meet your needs. In addition, we stock the most common replacement parts for these units.
Medium Duty Truck Parts. When you call the dealer and start going into shock because of their prices, you immediately start to look for other sources. Mill Supply can save you money with the many aftermarket products available. We supply aftermarket parts for Chevy/GMC, Ford, Freightliner, Hino, International, Isuzu, Mitsubishi, Nissan and UD. We also supply OE parts for Freightliner. If you have a VIN number call us for quick turn-around and great pricing.
We stock replacement brake parts, wiper mechanisms, mirrors, fuel tanks, roll-up door parts, lights, door hardware and much more. You can also dress up your truck with wheel simulators or install a backup camera for safety. Complete your vehicle with on-board emergency triangles, wheel chocks and cargo control. Our medium duty truck parts line grows weekly, so be sure to come back often!
Not sure of what you need to fix the problem? Contact us! Many in our sales staff have been here over 30 years and are ready to answer your questions 8-5 Monday thru Friday E.S.T.

Love With Caution Lyrics
The river's running fast right now, it's the time of year the water cleanses itself. Running wild, but always in control. And nows the time to sever the ties to habits that weaken, disguised by tradition. Drain away this fear until it disappears. I'm not ready to swim, I'm not going to sink, I just want to float through the sea. Are you pulling me down, are you holding me up? Or are you slowly drowning me? There's something to be said for luck, it's better than being good. When half of being good is being lucky anyways. We're spreading out, we're harder to hit. Become a moving target drop your burden and abandon it! I remember a day, when I could walk right down the street and feel so confident and know everything's ok. Take my hand, don't let go but please remember hearts can grow. We still have to take it slow, I love with caution and trust alone.

Committee Opinion Number 548, January 2013
(Reaffirmed 2018)
ABSTRACT: The updated guidelines by the Institute of Medicine regarding gestational weight gain provide clinicians with a basis for practice. Health care providers who care for pregnant women should determine a woman's body mass index at the initial prenatal visit and counsel her regarding the benefits of appropriate weight gain, nutrition and exercise, and, especially, the need to limit excessive weight gain to achieve best pregnancy outcomes. Individualized care and clinical judgment are necessary in the management of the overweight or obese woman who is gaining (or wishes to gain) less wei...

The Monticello Bucks won round two convincingly in the annual two round basketball war. After the first game, a double overtime affair won by the Broncos in December, the anticipation for the second game was sky high. And indeed, the packed gym at the Buckaroo corral symbolized the eagerness. The fans were treated to a 67-50 Buckaroo victory.
It was all Buckaroos this time, as they jumped out to a early ten point lead, 16-6 after the first quarter. The Broncos found their shooting touch in the second quarter, though the Buckaroos didn't lose theirs, and we found the halftime with coach Rhett Maughan's boys sporting a 32-20 lead led by Steven Redd and Cory Young, who both had seven points at halftime.
Already playing shorthanded, in the second half, the Broncos soon found their scoring leader Cameron Shumway in foul trouble after he picked up his third and fourth fouls to find himself sitting.
Young and Redd continued their scoring blitz as the Buckaroos executed on offense and played pressure defense to find themselves up by 22 after three quarters.
When Shumway fouled out with almost seven minutes remaining, the door seemed shut on the Broncos. But there was no give up in the boys from Blanding, who closed the gap a little by pressuring the ball and getting to the foul line.
Coaches' son, Tyrell Nielson, showed great shooting touch, connecting on 12 for 12 from the foul line in the fourth quarter, but it was to no avail and the Bucks, playing an energetic game throughout, garnered the confidence building win.
Redd led all scorers with 20 points, with Young close behind with 18, including two treys. Dallin Duncan added 10 points.
Nielson led the Broncos with 16 points, with AJ Slavens, Seth Moses, and Shumway all tossing in seven.
Rivalry history
The earlier game drew this comment from Bronco coach Ryan Nielson, "That was the most exciting Monticello, Blanding game I have ever been a part of. The fans got a great show. Two teams worked their guts out and we were fortunate to be on top. Those kinds of games are nerve racking but a lot of fun. Monticello has a great team. Like most games, that game came down to free throws, but I am dang proud of my boys and their effort. That is what a rivalry is all about."
The Buckaroo win was the first for the Buckaroos over the Broncos since 2005, when the Bucks triumphed 54-44. The teams split in 2004 as well, with the only sweep of the annual two-fer by Bucks coming in 2001.
The Broncos own a 14-5 record over the Bucks since 2001, including 2003, when the teams played not only their two in December, but met in the first round of the state tournament, the Broncos winning all three that year.
For the school year, the rivalry is alive and well, with the Bronco boys winning in football, and the Lady Buckaroos winning three matches in volleyball. Boy's cross country would have to be a tie with both teams placing third.
The nod would need to go to the Lady Broncos in cross country, based on their state championship while the Lady Bucks grabbed third place. The Lady Broncos won round one in basketball, with round two coming up. Wrestling gets started this week in a match that will have been played out by press time.
Golf language?
Last year I queried whether golf is a verb or a noun. Does one "golf" or "play golf"? I came down on the side of playing golf.
According to Meriam Webster's Collegiate Dictionary, "golf" is first a noun and then a verb. I've always preferred using golf as a noun, as in "Let's play some golf."
Using golf as a verb, "I golfed a 42 today" has always kinda grated on my nerves... well maybe annoyed my nerves.
After all, we don't say "I basketballed today and scored 20 points" or "Hey, let's football 'till the cows came home," or "We croqueted at the party and had a swell time."
We "play" golf, we "play" basketball, football and croquet. Don't we? Reminds me of the hip phrase of a few years ago, "my bad", used when one made a mistake and it was one's own fault. "My bad" one would say.
In that case, one uses an adjective as a noun. Sorry, but it's like having paper crinkling in your ear while trying to go to sleep. I say "golf" is a noun."
Finally, some corroboration, from Jay Nordlinger, a contributor to National Review. Writes Nordlinger, "Maybe we should entertain a language question. A reader wants to know about golf - and "golfing." He says, "I was raised in a pretty serious golf family. From early on, I found the word 'golfing' to be odd, even irksome. Is it really a word at all? You never hear Tiger or Jack or Freddy say that they are 'golfing.' They 'play golf.' But you hear weekend warriors say 'golfing' all the time."
Yes, I have considered this question and I agree with the letter-writer. In my observation, serious golfers talk about "playing golf." More casual types are apt to say, "I'm going golfing this afternoon" (on the order of, "I'm going bowling"). But is "golfing" a word, and can you say that you're "golfing"? Why, sure."
"Serious golfers talk about playing golf." Right on.

Thank goodness Christmas is over! Back to some relaxing, feel good knitting without a deadline. If you're looking for something super special and decadent, check out Madelinetosh Silk Lace.
Madelinetosh Silk Lace comes in an ample 1000 yard skein, so one skein could make a luxurious shawl or scarf, and two skeins could make a sweater. It is 100% Tussah silk that shows off the brilliant Tosh colorways in the best way possible. Silk Lace has a great hand and drape, and would be perfect for any lace project! Here are a few of the patterns I've been thinking about:
The Citron Shawl is a Knitty.com classic. Update it with the Tosh Silk Lace! If you'd like to keep with the citrus theme try Chamomile or Ginger.
I have made two Whispy Cardigans. It is a wonderful, extremely wearable, simple knit! Smaller sizes could use one skein, and larger two for an elegant, versatile cardigan. This pattern looks equally great with jeans or with a cute dress.
The Rock Island Shawl is one of Jerod Flood's most popular pattern for good reason! One of our staff knit it, and I drool everytime she wears it. I can't wait to make one! It would be lovely in bright Nikko Blue or classic Oxblood.
If you're looking for something a bit more modern with an edgy streak, try the Rill Scarf. I absolutely adore the raw edge look and subtle lace.
Of course, if you'd like to simply show off this beautiful yarn any sort of stockinette or garter project would be gorgeous. Check out the ever-loved Color Affection or Clapotis for more inspiration!
I hope everyone had a wonderful Holiday Season and Happy New Year! Until next time,

I'm configuring an Azure ACS STS and would like to know if there is any impact on security based on the following token formats or how they are used. The answers to this questions should apply to other STSs such as CA Siteminder, Ping Identity, ADFS and others. Here is the selection I see in my configuration portal:
The corresponding help link takes me to MSDN documentation that doesn't cover security questions like this.
Is the difference in Token Format merely the manner in which it is serialized:
- The size of the token (that may round trip to the browser)
- Fundamental differences in security
- Differences in features and functionality
I have heard in several MSFT talks that SWT is an overly simplified version of SAML, and JWT is a not-yet-finalized standard by Google, IBM, and MSFT that should compromise on features between SWT and SAML.
