Nephrite Jade in a deep green with whitish brown coloration
Longshan-Shandong Neolithic Culture
Circa: 2500-2000 B.C.
Length: 10-3/4 in. (27.31 cm)
This powerful and elegant jade tablet is a remarkable example of ritual and prestige of the neolithic period. The well formed body of the tablet tapers showing a well beveled cutting end. The opposite end of the tablet is left rough, since this end would have been attached to a long shaft of wood by leather strips. The mounting hole is drilled neatly on the tang end from both directions and shows a neolithic irregularity. The quality of the jade stone and the deep polish are consistent with Longshan-Shandong excavated examples.
In his book Archaeology: the Science of Once and Future Things, Brian Hayden elaborates on the "Big Men" model which builds upon the idea that ambitious men could increase social and economic status by organizing the community's feasts. As "Big Men" sought to out-do all others through these gatherings, they gained power by controlling the production of food and resources. All gifts received by the honored individual(s) at a feast had to be repaid with interest. Therefore, in the spirit of competition, each feast was more lavish than the last. This model is supported by the custom of burying prestige objects with a few male adults from Neolithic communities, and by the discovery of specialized feasting and ritual implements. The excavation of Neolithic tombs belonging to Chinese individuals of elevated status have yielded the richest discoveries of these implements. For example, one means of exhibiting power and success was the Liangzhu culture (c. 3400-2250 BC) practice of publicly displayed destruction through burning and burial of surplus wealth. This elaborate burial practice was for the benefit of the living, dominant group; it confirmed their power and success. In our opinion, the excellent workmanship of this tablet make it a fine example of the accomplishments in jade working of the Longshan-Shandong culture.

Microsoft nixes SIS in Exchange Server 2010
In order to lower I/O and improve Exchange Server 2010 performance, Microsoft removed single instance storage. How will this affect messaging environments?
Microsoft removed single instance storage in Exchange Server 2010 in favor of new architecture and database compression technology -- a change that may affect storage requirements and how IT pros manage their messaging environments.
Instead of single instance storage (SIS), Exchange Server 2010 uses database compression technology and new tools that help administrators purge mailboxes and keep database sizes down. But when Microsoft de-emphasized SIS in Exchange Server 2007 last year, heads turned; and many Exchange users have been sounding off about the loss of SIS on TechNet.
Microsoft downplayed the impact on its Exchange blog site this week, but admits that there are instances where not having SIS will pose problems. For example, environments that only send rich text format (RTF) messages will experience a storage strain because the compression algorithms Microsoft uses in place of SIS to keep database size down do not compress RTF messages.
Not having SIS also creates a problem when sending large attachments to 20 or more users located on the same store. With SIS, for instance, if only five recipients out of the 20 on the same database received a 30 MB attachment, the attachment was stored once instead of five times. But in Exchange 2010, that attachment is stored five times -- totaling 150 MB -- and it isn't compressed, according to Microsoft.
Those scenarios are cause for alarm, said Richard Ayars, executive vice president at the Arlington, TX-based IT services company Custom Information Services.
"What happens when a user sends a 20 MB attachment to everybody in the mail store; a single message could eat up 20 GB of storage," Ayars said. "This [change] will force IT managers to train their users to follow sound practices when using email and create a need for more administration of the mail stores."
Microsoft's evolution from SIS
SIS was originally built into Exchange version 4.0 in 1996 to lower storage requirements at a time when storage costs were much higher. The idea behind SIS is that when a user sends a message out to numerous people with mailboxes in the same store, the original message is stored once instead of many times, and recipients access one stored message.
But storage costs are at an all time low and the use of multiple mailbox databases in Exchange Server, which don't benefit from SIS because it only works within a single database, have made the method far less important, said Rob Sanfilippo, an analyst with the Kirkland, Wash.-based analyst firm Directions on Microsoft.
"Microsoft has redesigned the Exchange store schema to decrease disk I/O and increase performance, and it was apparently more efficient to eliminate SIS in the process," Sanfilippo said.
The impact
Exchange users who "cling to the past" and build Exchange environments the same way they did with Exchange Server 2003 and earlier will most feel the effects of this change. For them, storage costs will be higher than they have to be, said Michael Crowley, a messaging administrator who builds Exchange environments for Germantown, Md.-based Planet Technologies Inc.
Also, shops with only a few Exchange servers will see a database size increase, and will need larger disks and larger backup systems, Crowley said.
But Exchange 2010 better supports inexpensive Direct Attached Storage (DAS) drives through its reduced I/O overhead, which could circumvent the cost of buying extra storage, Sanfilippo said.
"Additional storage will be something for IT shops to consider if they are adopting Exchange 2010's server-based personal archive mailboxes, so the elimination of SIS won't be the only reason for more storage," Sanfilippo said.
Andre Preoteasa, IT director for New York-based alcoholic beverage provider Castle Brands Inc., said having larger mailboxes and other advantages in Exchange 2010 offset not having SIS, especially since hard drives are relatively inexpensive.
"If the internals of storing mail had to change, then so be it," Preoteasa said. "But hopefully Microsoft's mailbox database stores do not start massively increasing."
Sanfilippo said storing large files outside of Exchange on a SharePoint site, for instance, will reduce any noticeable impact in storage costs and requirements for Exchange deployments. Crowley said concerns about losing SIS are "mostly unwarranted," and suggests that enterprises follow Microsoft's direction to keep storage costs down.
"If people take a bit of a leap and follow Microsoft's new storage design guidance, they will actually realize a huge reduction in disk cost. The removal of SIS was accompanied by the introduction of Database Availability Groups, which [when used] in three-plus server deployments, do not even require RAID disk subsystems," Crowley added.

If you're crazy about palm trees you can paint them all over your house or in just one room.
It's important to judge the amount of space you have just right or your palm tree can end up looking squat when you run out of room. Palm trees can be made any height using the same basic pattern as described below. Start by choosing the color of paint for the trunk. Most people would choose brown or tan but you can also choose certain shades of green that won't clash with the color you choose for the palm fronds. Pink is another color that you can use for the trunk to represent the sun going down and casting a glow on the tree.
Make a line straight across to start the trunk of the tree. How long to make the line depends upon how large the object is. If it's small use a tiny line, say an inch long. For really large places, like a wall, you might want to make the line several inches long. Get an idea of how long the lines should be and how many you'll need by drawing the trees on pieces of paper before painting them on the actual surface. Above the first line draw the next line exactly parallel but the tiniest bit shorter. What is meant by shorter is an extremely scant amount. As you draw the parallel lines each one will get smaller and smaller until the trunk is finished. Since that's the case each line should be only a couple of hair's width shorter than the previous one.
After the trunk is formed you'll start to do the fronds. Make a tiny line from the side of the top of the tree and at an outward slant. Make the next tiny line leaving a space between the first. Continue making these tiny lines in an octagonal shape of 8 lines over the top of the tree itself. Don't put the fronds color directly on top of the trunk color. Instead, start at the side of the tree and make the octagon by ending at the other side of the tree top.
Make a slightly smaller line above each of the octagonal lines. Continue to make parallel lines, each above the previous. Make the lines smaller and smaller until there's nothing but a dot. Do this to each of the octagonal lines.
The trick to making the tree look good is to avoid straight patterns in the fronds and trunk. Curve the trunk slightly to one side and back up rather than draw it straight upwards. For the fronds, curve them out and downward rather than straight out or straight up. Make the fronds longer on the bottom and shorter towards the top.

We've deduced it was a weird Instagram sort of page that does car photoshoots with an obnoxious clothing line... but they are spreading, just today I caught another one of them, in a more subtle car than the last two:
its a VW Beatle and its was almost a stock car, only mods were some license plate holders and those quad exhaust tips (no bro exhaust!)
I feel that if there's ever a Cars and Coffee event here in Mexico City it would be festooned with these people...
should I organize a cars and coffee? Hmm... tough call.
here, have a taste of one of their Instagram photos:

Your Wedding is one of the most important events you will plan, are you familiar with the wedding etiquettes? At some point you might have had the concern about making an etiquette mistake at your reception. After all, don't you want everything to be perfect for that special day! Well, if you would like to avoid a possible embarrassing etiquette mistake, you might want to become familiar with all of the traditional wedding manners. One of the most popular traditions is wedding favours. Giving out wedding favours is an intricate part of a reception. Therefore, here are some guidelines you should follow for handling different situations.
If you decide to have your wedding favours incorporated into your theme, you may want to have a centre display with all the favours on a table - either with well-dressed decoration or a stylish basket. Place a note card on the presentation asking your guest to help him or herself to one of the wedding favours.
There are all sorts of favour ideas for you to look at for theme related weddings-Beach, Damask, and Asian themes are amongst some of the most popular.
I know your parents always told you to put a little on your plate, and if you need more you can always add more. Well, I hate to break this to you, but the opposite is true with wedding favours. It's best to have more than you need than too few. Having a few extras covers you in the event you have surprised guest or accidental breakage of a favour.
The traditional way of distributing favours is to have one for each of your guest next to their place setting. You may want to consider having one favour per couple if you are working with a limited budget. Therefore, you can minimize the number of wedding favours and use the additional money for other areas of your wedding. If you choose to go with one favour per couple, then make sure you place the favours between the couple's seats and have a card with both names on it so that they are aware the favour is to be shared. Photos frames or coasters are good favour ideas for this type of situation. Also don't forget, if you invite children or individuals who are solo, they will need individual favours.
If you are having a buffet as opposed to the traditional sit down dinner, you could have your favours handed out or available on a table near the exit. Make sure to include a special thank-you note asking your guest to take one individually or per family.
Having your wedding favours as a parting gift will help your guest not to worry about carrying them around with them or possibly leaving them. If you decide to go this route, keep in thought, your guest will not be able to use them during the ceremony or reception, therefore make sure you choose the wedding favours carefully - you probably wouldn't want to go with a camera favour or bubbles blower.
A unique way to hand out wedding favours is by putting them directly in the cars of your guest. You can ask the valet to do this for you or you can have one of you friends or family members help out. Try to visualize the surprise on your guests' face, when they return to their car to see that you have left them something special for being apart of your important day. Now make sure not to forget about the other passengers in the car!
There are several etiquette and traditions for both the ceremony and reception. Nevertheless, every bride and groom is different and every wedding unique. Ultimately, the wedding belongs to you, and so whatever you decide to do for your wedding favours are the best thing for you- after all, it's your special day!

Carnegie and Atlantis Resources Sign Collaboration Agreement
Wave energy technology developer, Carnegie Wave Energy Limited, and UK based tidal developer, Atlantis Resources Corporation Limited have announced the signing of a Collaboration Agreement in London.
The agreement outlines a range of areas that the companies will collaborate on including technology and project development with the aim of lowering the cost of generation of both wave and tidal generation. Work has already begun on the first collaboration activity package.
Carnegie's Managing Director, Dr. Michael Ottaviano, said: "Collaboration between developers in the marine energy space is both essential for progress to be continued to be made and inevitable as marine energy technologies and markets mature. We are delighted to be working alongside Atlantis who a leader in the tidal energy sector."
Atlantis' Chief Executive Officer, Mr.Tim Cornelius, said: "There are numerous synergies, both technical and commercial, that exist between wave and tidal power development and we look forward to working with Carnegie whose CETO technology is a truly unique approach in the wave energy space."
The Collaboration Agreement anticipates a number of opportunities for collaboration. Both wave and tidal power involve in the design, development and manufacture of industrial scale equipment and its deployment and operation into harsh ocean environments. Developing projects for either wave or tidal requires similar competencies in site assessment, acquisition, planning and approvals. Commercially, both wave and tidal projects will also usually require similar efforts to secure finance and offtake arrangements. An initial study is underway focused on the electrical architecture of commercial CETO project.

Kung Fu Panda 2008/07/20Posted by Daddy Dave in fun, Movies, Reviews.
Tags: Kung Fu Panda, Movie, Review
We got to see Kung Fu Panda this afternoon, so we could finally make sense of what Olivia has been going on about (she loves it, and saw it a couple of weeks ago).
To be honest, we enjoyed this film quite a lot in spite of itself; it does not stand up well to any depth of scrutiny!
For a start, I guess most people would associate Martial Arts with Japan (I know that is my tradition), but this is a Chinese tale in that it is about Kung Fu and it has a panda in it. It took me a wee while to figure out why the film was not set in Japan or America; the whole thing was devised just so that they could use that annoyingly catchy Carl Douglas song, "Everybody was kung fu fighting…"
You know, it could almost be a cause for concern that it is so utterly US American. One wonders how many children out there will think that pandas eat just about anything (when in fact they are incredibly fussing about eating bamboo). Maybe children will believe that it is okay to be fat and unfit because the message is clear that everyone is "special in their own special way", and the onus is on the teacher to bring out whatever promise may be in the pupil.
All the characters speak with broad US American accents and idioms. The Panda, Po, is a teenage geek (he knows a lot about the "Furious Five" and about kung fu in general). But he's funny, fat and motivated only by food. He is the chosen saviour. He has to deal with his future, his father, earning a living. All of which is so teenagery that it must have swooped right over Olivia's head.
One of the team (the tigress) is resentful that the Panda was chosen over her. Po has to earn her respect on top of everything else. The tale is similar to Team America, The Karate Kid, Top Gun, and a zillion others.
The master has to learn to come to terms with lessons from his own master, and has to face the evil he created and train Po to provide salvation.
Yes, it is all a bit silly, and it does give some strange messages to children. It seems to be saying that years of training and single-minded devotion to an art can be easily beaten by using a trick — a shortcut. This is a bit like American Idol or the American Dream, where anyone can do and be anything — straight to the top as an overnight success!
It might have been "better" had the panda been made to work, slim down, and, as the classic underdog, prove himself and earn his way to the top.
But maybe the thought of a skinny panda was too much for Hollywood.
All in all, it is just a very strange film, and perhaps too many adult themes were involved. And at least good still triumphed over evil, however unlikely.
Olivia liked the tigress best, and she does high kicks and kung fu poses en vogue style. Cute. Thank goodness she didn't leave the cinema with a desire to snack on cookies or be fat, lazy, unfit and stupid like the "star".
I liked the bit where the old master explains to the young master that one cannot see clearly when one is agitated, angry, and so forth — and illustrated the point using a pond, showing that water has to be still and calm for a reflection to be clearly seen and for anything under the surface to be seen. That will actually stay with me I think. It was one of those moments that used to be provided by the TV show, "Kung Fu", a wee gem would be offered like that each week, a pearl of wisdom.
It's nice to have been able to learn something, to have been changed by the experience — and I have Kung Fu Panda to thank for that.
I'm off for some snacks and to practice some kung fu! Haiiiiiiiiii ah!

Ontario Investing in New Institute at Wilfrid Laurier University
Province Helping to Grow Innovative Start-Ups
Ontario is supporting a new management institute at Wilfrid Laurier University in Waterloo that will help innovative technology start-ups become globally competitive companies.
As announced in the 2015 Budget, the province is contributing $15 million over 10 years to the Lazaridis Institute for the Management of Technology Enterprises in the heart of the Kitchener-Cambridge-Waterloo Region, often referred to as 'Canada's technology triangle'. The institute will help bolster Ontario's emerging technology sector by teaching the skills required to grow successful start-ups ready to prosper in the global marketplace.
Students will be:
- Taught the management skills they need to succeed in the new economy through customized curriculum, research activities, seminars and conferences.
- Provided development and networking opportunities including a mentorship-coaching program.
The institute will also support the next generation of Ontario's technology leaders through partnerships with undergraduate and graduate programs at Wilfrid Laurier University.
Fostering the right climate to turn innovative ideas into successful companies is part of the government's economic plan for Ontario. The four-part plan is building Ontario up by investing in people's talents and skills, building new public infrastructure like roads and transit, creating a dynamic, supportive environment where business thrives, and building a secure savings plan so everyone can afford to retire.
Quick Facts
- The Province will contribute $1.5 million annually over the next 10 years to the Lazaridis Institute for the Management of Technology Enterprises. Mike Lazaridis, co-founder of BlackBerry, will invest $20 million.
- The Conference Board of Canada recently ranked Ontario as the top-performing province in its annual innovation report card.
- Kitchener-Cambridge-Waterloo Region is referred to as "Canada's Technology Triangle" for its well-developed information and communications technology sectors.
- The Region's information communication and technology sector grew by over 10 per cent between 2011 and 2014. It is home to over 1,000 technology companies.
Additional Resources
"Ontario recognizes that to be a top global jurisdiction in technology, we need to have the right infrastructure and the best talent in place to inspire entrepreneurship and connect local start-ups to the support and mentorship they need to grow. The Lazaridis Institute will help ensure that Ontario's tech companies have the management skills and expertise they need to create a new wave of highly skilled jobs in our province."
Reza Moridi
"This new institute is an exciting addition to Kitchener-Waterloo's thriving innovation ecosystem. By helping more entrepreneurs take their innovative ideas to the next level, we can strengthen Ontario's economy and compete and win against the best in the world."
Deb Matthews
"The growth of our innovative start-up companies will create more jobs, spark further economic growth and enhance Ontario's competitiveness on a global scale. Nurturing new talent and entrepreneurship is good for our economy and the people of Ontario."
Charles Sousa
"We are pleased to receive this investment from the Ontario government to help create the Lazaridis Institute. Managerial gaps in start-up companies are a key challenge for Waterloo Region's fast-growing technology sector. This investment will help the new institute to address this gap ensuring that our very own tech companies have the management skills to compete in global markets."
Micheál Kelly
"I am very excited about the establishment of the Lazaridis Institute for the Management of Technology Enterprises and the opportunity that it presents to the Canadian technology industry. Through the continued vision and support shared by the Ontario government and Wilfrid Laurier University, the institute will attract top business students and faculty from around the world and will produce exceptional business managers that will help lead Canadian technology companies to grow and succeed globally."
Mike Lazaridis

I had a DCS-932L and upgraded to a DCS-2132L. The nightvision on the new camera is horrible. Seems to be very pixelated. I would like to see a smoother image in nightvision. Not sure if turning up denoise specifically for nightvision would work or not, but there has to be a solution to get the image just as good in the 2132 as it was in my old 932.Thanks
On my computer using the direct link url, or using the dlink viewcam software. The night vision just doesnt look as good as it did with my old DCS-932L. It doesnt matter which way I view the image, whether live, or as a snapshot or as a recorded video the image still looks very grainy.
Yes. I turned down sharpness and that has helped a lil, but the image still isnt as good as it was with the old DCS-932L.
Poor night vision quality also results in constant triggering of video motion detection. I am yet to find the correct sensitivity setting.
Try turning down the 'MAX GAIN'. SETUP/IMAGE SETUP/EXPOSURE MODE-MAX GAIN. The default is 24. I set mine to 3.

Internet Drug News'
How To Become A Pharmacist InternetDrugNews.com Hip pocket Information to help people seeking a career in pharmacy ; a drug interaction checker, compendiums of herbal and pharmaceutical databases, lists of pharmacy schools, pharmacy journals, wholesalers, etc.These days, being a pharmacist is a highly sought after career, partially due to the fact that a typical pharmacist's starting salary (fresh out of college) is about $125,000 per year. Since pharmacy is a 6-year degree, most pharmacists enter the profession at the age of 24. It is pretty cool when you are 24-years old and you are earning 90 grand per year.Pharmacists are not supposed to work off-the-books but many do. They get about $40.00 cash per hour if they choose this avenue of compensation. Since many pharmacists work 12-hour shifts, they are pulling down major cash.This high starting salary attracts many would-be pharmacists. Since there are so many applicants the pharmacy schools can afford to be picky.Up until the mid 1990's pharmacy was a 5-year degree. You graduated with a Bachelor Of Science in Pharmacy. Nowadays, pharmacy is a 6-year degree. You graduate as a Pharm D. Pharm D's like to be referred to as "Dr. such and such" but they are not medical doctors. They can not prescribe drugs. They can only dispense exactly what the medical practitioner prescribes if they work in a drugstore.However, these days pharmacists have expanded clinical horizons. They are not limited to dispensing pills. Many of them work in clinical settings such as hospitals where their expertise on drugs and drug information is sought after by doctors and other medical professionals. Many Pharm. D's gravitate toward teaching. Another avenue of professional endeavor for pharmacists is working for the drug companies. Working for a drug company as a Pharm. D.is a highly sought after position because of all the perks that come with working for a rich corporation.If you are a high school student and you want to be a pharmacist here are some friendly points of advice:Take science every year - this will be a factor regarding your entrance application. Lots of kids don't take science in 12th grade because it is not required to graduate but if you want to be a pharmacist you need to take it anyway. Biology, earth science, chemistry, physics - take them all. If you can handle AP science all the better.I hope you like chemistry because if you are fortunate enough to get accepted into pharmacy school, you will be taking tons of chemistry (and labs too).You will definitely take organic chemistry, which is very hard. They give you organic chemistry early on to weed out marginal students. If you don't like chemistry, forget being a pharmacist. Your life will be a living hell is you don't like (or have an aptitude for) chemistry.Take math every year - Lots of kids skip math in 12th grade because you don't need it to graduate. BUT taking math every year shows college admission officers that the student is studious and is not afraid of difficult coursework. If you can handle AP, all the better.Foreign Language - believe it or not, taking a foreign language enhances your chances of getting accepted into pharmacy school (or any good school for that matter). This demonstrates that the student is well rounded and capable of memorizing information. Memorization is important if you want to be a pharmacist.The rest of this page gives you a taste the sort of information that pharmacists deal with in their profession. If you are into this stuff, pharmacy school may be an option for you: Misc.

Stockholm is the economic, financial and business centre of Sweden, as well as a leading regional player, particularly in the emerging Baltic markets and within the EU. Although Sweden opted out of the European Monetary Union (euro), Stockholm's main trading partners are all European. The offices around Hamngatan and Sergelstorg control one of the most powerful economies in Europe. As such, the city ranks as a leading financial centre in the Nordic countries with a prevalence in areas such as innovation, technology, availability of capital and quality of life.
The service sector is dominant in the city and, as such, professional, scientific and technical companies account for around a quarter of the private businesses in the Greater Stockholm area, employing more than 13,000 people. The biggest employers in Stockholm are telecommunications company Ericsson, household goods company Electrolux, construction company Skanska, car and engine manufacturer Volvo and electricity provider Vattenfall. Other leading employers include the three main banks – SEB, Swedbank and Handelsbanken – and construction company NCC.
Stockholm is attractive as both a tourist destination and a city for business. However, Stockholm is commercial in nature: it is broadly recognised that business travellers account for 60% of the total demand in the city. Nevertheless, the number of nights from leisure visitors has increased significantly in the past few years, whilst guest nights from business travellers has risen more slowly.
Stockholm is one of the markets that was significantly impacted by currency dynamics in 2018, as reflected in our index. Although the city recorded a 2% value increase in local currency, it was classified as the second worst performing market in euro terms. The central bank of Sweden's decision to maintain a negative interest rate of 0.25% in 2018 further weakened the Swedish krona against the euro. The complications recently faced in creating a government have resulted in some political instability in the country and may have impacted Sweden's international reputation. A substantial number of new hotels entered the market in 2017 and 2018; however, RevPAR levels have remained stable, affording Stockholm its long track record and solid growth in business and leisure demand.
Owing to the scarcity of land and the predominance of operating lease arrangements, Stockholm remains a market with high barriers to entry for international players, and thus lacks internationally branded, high-end luxury hospitality products. Consequently, a vast majority of the current supply is operated by Nordic brands and a similar trend is seen in the pipeline, dominated by local operators with 12 hotels (2,000 rooms) expected to enter the market over the next two years.
In terms of transactions, the most recent were the 70-room Hoom and Home Hotel Sollentuna at €9 million (€128,000 per key) in December 2018, the 91-room Part-Time Home Ritmallen 2 at €30.1 million (€330,000 per key) in November 2018 and the 153-room Hoom and Home Hotel Järfälla at €17.8 million (€116,000 per key) in May 2018. Overall, the market recorded a value decrease of 4.3% in euro (+2.2% in local currency) compared to 2017 levels.

Essential Capabilities for Applying DevOps to Your Database
Software industry leaders have been talking about DevOps for more than a decade. Most top firms say that they're committed to a holistic DevOps philosophy and that they're trying to put it to work across their organization, integrating roles and functions throughout the development pipeline. Yet many of them overlook the one area where problems are most common and consequential: the database.
In his new ebook, DevOps for the Database, Baron Schwartz digs into the root causes and offers practical guidance for more widespread and effective use of DevOps practices to optimize database performance. There are many different definitions of DevOps and different ideas about the right way to do it – all are context specific.
However, Baron's first-hand observations and insights gathered from the database community suggest that certain capabilities are especially important and that advances are often achieved through a similar progression. Steps forward typically fall into six categories:
- Baseline DevOps infrastructure operations practices are applied to the database: automated provisioning, automated configuration, monitoring and so forth.
- Database-specific operational tasks such as backups, recovery, upgrades and refreshing the test dataset on pre-production databases are automated.
- Database schema, code and data models – table structures, stored procedure code, etc. – are managed similarly to source code with version control and "normal" change control processes.
- Deployments of database changes such as schema changes (migrations) and data transformations (data migrations) are automated, not performed manually.
- Performance and availability are not just DBA jobs. Developers are involved in and, ideally responsible and on-call for the performance of their application's production database.
- Database administrators are not doing repetitive tasks. Instead, they serve as subject matter experts who consult with or are embedded within engineering teams to maximize productivity.
These categories are roughly in order of ease to tackle for most organizations but Baron emphasizes that they do not represent a maturity model. DevOps is a journey, not a destination, and progress is not linear so you're never "done." DevOps is about doing what is feasible and valuable for your situation.
To learn more about how you can apply DevOps to your databases, please check out this valuable 65-page ebook. It is written for DBAs, developers, SREs, tech operations staff, managers – anyone who is responsible for data-intensive applications and wants to modernize for speed, stability, and efficiency by improving the performance of their organization's databases.

Colegio Maya has adopted Bridges in Mathematics, along with Number Corner from the Math Learning Center.
The Math Learning Center is a nonprofit organization based in the United States. The founders spent several years traveling to schools to observe classrooms and visit with teachers and students. Over time they developed a research- based philosophy that emphasizes building a deeper understanding before engaging more abstract concepts. The curriculum is a living document continually updated and improved through collaboration with teachers.
Number Corner, a "pathway to fluency", is a skill-building program that revolves around the classroom calendar, providing practice as well as continual encounters with broader mathematical concepts in 15–20 minutes of daily engaging instruction.
Bridges in Mathematics is a comprehensive curriculum that equips teachers to fully meet standards for mathematics in a manner that is rigorous, coherent, engaging, and accessible to all learners.
The curriculum focuses on developing students' deep understandings of mathematical concepts, proficiency with key skills, and ability to solve complex and novel problems.
Bridges blends direct instruction, structured investigation, and open exploration. It taps into the intelligence and strengths of all students by presenting material that is as linguistically, visually, and kinesthetically rich as it is mathematically powerful.
Student achievement is continuously monitored through a comprehensive assessment program rich in diagnostic and formative assessment tools that Colegio Maya teachers use to differentiate instruction and meet individual students' learning needs.

England Women won their ninth match in a row to go 2-0 up against Sri Lanka and seal the T20I series with a game to go.
It is their joint-highest number of consecutive victories since 2012, when the team won nine on the bounce between July and September.
Victory in Thursday's final T20I would be only the fifth time the team has won ten consecutive matches.
The only thing not going right for Heather Knight at the minute is her ability to win the toss. Calling incorrectly for the fifth time in five games meant Sri Lanka batted first but despite an opening partnership of 45 the hosts could only reach 108/6 from their 20 overs.
Katherine Brunt - returning for the rested Anya Shrubsole - took two while there was a maiden international wicket for Sophia Dunkley. Freya Davies, in just her second game, conceded only 14 from her four overs.
In reply, England's new opening partnership of Amy Jones and Danni Wyatt, with Tammy Beaumont moving to No.3, raced to a partnership of 79 inside eight overs and while both fell before the job was done England waltzed home by eight wickets inside 14 overs.
Amy Jones: "It's another really good win. We've talked a lot about getting into the habit of winning games and being ruthless and we want to continue that.
"It's nice to win a lot of games in a row and we want to keep that run going for as long as possible. It's less than a year until the ICC T20 World Cup so it's great for us to get used to winning T20 matches.
"The bowlers again gave nothing away and it was good to come back with the ball after Sri Lanka had got off to a decent start with the bat.
"We want to finish the tour with victory on Thursday and make it 10 in a row. That will set us up nicely for a really important summer."

UPDATE: (Feb. 2020) – On Thursday Feb. 6 New Jersey jury awarded 4 plaintiffs $750 million in punitive damages, each having been previously awarded $37.2 million each in compensatory damages. Although the punitive damage award is expected to be reduced to around $185 million under NJ law that limits punitive awards to no more than five time the compensatory damages, the jury's message to Johnson & Johnson was a powerful one.
All four plaintiffs parents used J&J's Baby Powder and/or Shower to Shower on them when they were children, and all four were subsequently diagnosed with mesothelioma, a cancer linked to Asbestos.
If you or a loved one have used Johnson & Johnson's Baby Powder or Shower-to-Shower products and been diagnosed with Ovarian Cancer or Mesothelioma, contact us online or call 1-866-252-3535.
Reuters has published a remarkable report dubbed "Powder Keg" that is a MUST read: "J&J Knew for Decades that Asbestos lurked in its Baby Powder".
A corresponding article by Reuters demonstrates just how far J&J has gone to put profits over people: "J&J Kept a Guiding Hand on Talc Safety Research".
2018 was not a good year for J&J:
- January: News outlet FairWarning publishes findings from internal documents revealing J&J's decades-long cover-up.
- April: $117 Million verdict in New Jersey linking J&J's baby powder and the development of Mesothelioma.
- May: $27 Million verdict in the second case linking J&J's baby powder and the development of Mesothelioma.
- July: $4.69 Billion verdict in Missouri State Court linking J&J's baby powder and ovarian cancer in 22 women (see below).
- September: $417 Million verdict in California linking J&J's baby powder to the plaintiff's ovarian cancer (see below).
- December: J&J's stock drops more than 10% (est. $50 Billion) in 1 day after Reuters' "Powder Keg" report is released.
The company is facing some 12,000 lawsuits nationwide over the safety of its "talc" products.
J&J HIT WITH $4.69 Billion VERDICT!
UPDATE: (July 2018) -A state court jury in St. Louis, Missouri found Johnson & Johnson responsible for the ovarian cancers of 22 women, ordering the consumer products giant to pay $4.69 billion in damages to the cancer victims and their survivors.
UPDATE: (Sept. 2017) – Johnson & Johnson Ordered to Pay $417 Million in Talc-Cancer Verdict
On August 21, a 63-year-old woman with terminal ovarian cancer won her California lawsuit against J&J over claims its talc-based bath products caused her disease.
Eva Echeverria used Johnson's baby powder and J&J's Shower to Shower that contained talc and was diagnosed with cancer in 2007. Now, a decade later, a jury has rendered a verdict in her favor for $70 million in compensatory damages and $347 million in punitive damages.
Justice is served.
UPDATE: (May 2017) – Another St. Louis jury has ordered Johnson & Johnson to pay a $110 million verdict in a talcum powder trial. The plaintiff, 62-year-old Lois Slemp, developed ovarian cancer after using the company's talc products for decades, and claimed she wasn't adequately warned about the true health risks when she used the products for feminine hygiene purposes. The judgement marks the largest verdict to date in talcum powder litigation.
UPDATE: (Oct. 28, 2016) – A St. Louis jury has awarded more than $70 million to Deborah Giannecchini, of Modesto, California, wrapping up a month long trial. Giannecchini said she was happy with the verdict, but it doesn't make up for the Stage IV ovarian cancer fight and ongoing health problems caused by chemotherapy.
"There's not enough money in the world to pay for fighting the cancer," she said.

UPDATE: (May 3, 2016) – Following a three-week trial in St. Louis, jurors deliberated for about a day before returning a $55 million dollar verdict for Gloria Ristesund; a woman who said that using the company's talc-powder products for feminine hygiene caused her to develop ovarian cancer. Ms. Ristesund was awarded $5 million in compensatory damages and $50 million in punitive damages.
Ms. Ristesund said she used Johnson & Johnson's talc-based powder products—which include the well-known Baby Powder and Shower to Shower Powder—on her genitals for decades, was diagnosed with ovarian cancer and had to undergo a hysterectomy and related surgeries. However, her cancer is now in remission.
SOURCE: Fortune (Reuters)
UPDATE: (Jan. 24, 2016) – A St. Louis jury has ordered Johnson & Johnson to pay $72 million to the family of a woman who died in 2015 from ovarian cancer allegedly caused by talcum powder used throughout her life for feminine hygiene purposes. The verdict in favor of Jacqueline Fox's family was for $10 million in actual damages and $62 million in punitive damages. Fox used Johnson & Johnson talcum powder products her whole life, and alleged that the manufacturer failed to adequately warn that the talc may migrate through the vagina and increase the risk of ovarian cancer.
In 2013, a study published in the medical journal Cancer Prevention Research looked at data on about 2,000 women who used talcum powder on the genital area. The findings suggested that women who use talc body powder may face a 20% to 30% higher risk of ovarian cancer when compared to women who do not use the baby powder or body powder products. The original link between talcum powder and ovarian cancer was discovered in 1971 in a medical study that demonstrated talc particles in the ovarian tissue for cancer patients. As early as 1971, Johnson & Johnson's medical director Dr. G.Y. Hildick-Smith argued against the suggestion that talc is carcinogenic. This was the first instance in which medical professionals realized that women could be at risk for a consistent use of these products.
Following the 1971 study that first detected a connection between talcum powder use and ovarian cancer, many more scientific studies have been published in prominent medical journals such as Cancer, The Lancet, and Oncology throughout the past decades. The National Cancer Institute and the International Union Against Cancer have published similar findings. A description of pivotal studies on the baby powder and ovarian cancer is set forth here:
- 1970s An article on ovarian cancer caused by talcum powder in The Lancet warns, "The potentially harmful effects of talc . . . in the ovary . . . should not be ignored."
- 1992 The Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology publishes a study which finds that regular (weekly) use of baby powder increases a woman's risk of developing ovarian cancer threefold.
- 1997 A study published in the American Journal of Epidemiology affirms that perineal dusting of talcum powder contributes to the risk of cancer; it suggests talcum genital deodorant sprays contribute to cancer growth as well.
- 2003 A meta-analysis, which compiles and reviews data from 16 previous studies, is published in Anticancer Research. Based on research with nearly 12,000 women, the study concludes that perineal baby powder use is associated with a 33% increase in ovarian cancer risk.
- 2008 Harvard epidemiologist Dr. Margaret Gates reaffirms that weekly use of talcum powder for perineal dusting increases the risk of ovarian cancer by 33%. Dr. Gates also asserts that daily use of a product such as Johnson & Johnson's Shower to Shower talcum powder increases the risk of ovarian cancer by 41%.
- 2010 Dr. Gates, along with two other Harvard researchers, publishes a study in the journal Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers and Prevention in which the role of talc particles in other endometrial cancer development was investigated. This study reinforces the notion that talc in baby powder is carcinogenic to humans.
Despite these original findings, companies like Johnson & Johnson continue to argue against the severity of the risks posed by talcum powder. It is simply another example of manufacturers placing their desire for profits before consumer safety by withholding information about the potential cancer risk from consumers for years.

Ultimate Nutrition Creatine Monohydrate
Biovolumizing 100% Micronized Creatine
- 5g Creatine per serving
- Increased strength and recovery
Out of stock

The major challenge for athletes and physical fitness buffs is to keep the muscles and brain energized. This is especially the case for endurance athletes who also need to recover their muscle power quickly after an intense workout and exercise.
Muscle contraction and relaxation are driven by energy in the cells provided by the compound adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Muscles have only a limited supply of ATP, however. The ATP levels are rapidly used up during exercise, particularly in short, intense bursts of anaerobic activity. Many an athletes needs immediate replenishment of energy in the muscle during demanding regimens, such as sprinting and weightlifting. In these situations, the body produces ATP: The energy currency in the cells, which powers muscle movement and control.
How much and how efficiently is ATP produced depends upon the amounts of creatine phosphate stored in the cell. Creatine is the biomolecule, which produces ATP. Creatine is indigenous to the human body, and is produced by the liver and stored in the brain, skeletal and heart muscles where it serves as a ready pool to produce ATP. Creatine is the key substance that helps speed up the ATP refueling of the muscle. More creatine in the muscle means greater energy production that allows muscle to work longer and at higher intensity.
How does creatine help the muscle perform at higher efficiency and recover faster? Creatine saturates the muscle to convert it into ATP.* This conversion takes place in the absence of oxygen and is, therefore, used as an anaerobic pathway for energy..
Creatine is, however, more than just an ergogenic nutrient: It has a voluminizing effect on the muscle.* Cell voluminizing, or cellular hydration, involves binding of water to the muscle fiber. In turn, this binding gives rise to the "pumped" look. Since water is bound inside the muscle, the athletes using creatine do not have the "puffy" appearance. In other words, the muscle looks larger but, more importantly, has improved strength and has high energy and intensity.* That allows the athlete to recover faster and have more energy for each training session.*
Ultimate Nutrition's Creatine Monohydrate is the highest quality micronized creatine that is specifically designed to enhance biovoluminization.* Creatine Monohydrate is scientifically tested to provide the ready source of energy for the athlete on the go.*.
What is Creatine Monohydrate Dosage?
Creatine is taken in two phases. The first phase is the so-called "loading phase when creatine is used to load the body. Depending on the individual, it could vary between one and five days with approximately five grams of creatine is taken three to four times a day. In the "maintenance" phase following the "loading" phase, creatine levels are maintained by a dose of five to 15 grams per day in divided dosages of five gram at one sitting for up to three months.
Who Uses Creatine Monohydrate?
According to reports professional athletes and Olympians use creatine monhydrate to enhance their performance. Creatine is taken most commonly ingested by weightlifters and bodybuilders. Since muscle strength and endurance increases all athletic performance, athletes of all stripes benefit from creatine supplementation, including runners, swimmers, cyclists, skiers, martial artists, wrestlers, football and rugby players and tennis and basketball players.
Is Creatine Found in Foods?
To varying degrees creatine is found in many foods. The richest source of creatine is lean red meat and fish. A 2.2-pound steak contains roughly six grams of creatine. It should be pointed out that eating large amounts of red meat might be unhealthy.
Is There Creatine Deficiency?
Since creatine breaks down rapidly during the first few minutes of intense exercise, creatine deficiency may ensue. That may result in decline in muscle power and onset of fatigue during intense muscle contractions.
Is There Creatine Balance in the Muscle?
Yes, the muscle has creatine equilibrium. Creatine has a normal turnover rate of 2 grams per day. That is, two grams of creatine are irreversibly degraded and, in its place, equivalent amount is synthesized to replace it. There is a balance between creatine pool inside the muscle cells and creatine circulating in the blood. After the start of creatine supplementation, this balance may be slightly perturbed, but the body quickly adjusts to the new equilibrium within a few days.

Loft Conversions
If you need more space in your house, you have two options. You can either find a bigger house, or you can make you house bigger. The latter will obviously cost money, but so does moving house. In many cases it is a more cost effective solution to extending or moving house.
A loft conversion is a popular choice for many houses these days due to the fact that use is being made of what already exists. People do not always realise how much can be done with what seems to be the wasted space within the loft. In most cases a loft conversion can add one or two bedrooms to the house, often without compromising the current space on the first floor, above all it should add value to your home.
Loft Conversion Costs
The cost of a loft conversion will depend on the size of the loft, the number of rooms required and the level of detailing / finish you want to include within the scheme.
Generally, a loft conversion will cost the client in the region of £20,000 to £60,000 but can exceed this figure depending on the scale of the conversion. If your budget is limited we can help you save money by designing around your budget. We would try to estimate the easiest way to obtain the results, which would be the most economic way to construct the loft conversion.
Planning & Building Regulations
Generally, most loft conversions do not require planning permission, this is because you are allowed a certain amount of what's known as Permitted Development. The actual amount you can extend depends on your location, and / or whether any previous extensions have been carried out to your property. If you were to put a dormer window on a prominent elevation then you may need to obtiain the necessary consent. If in any doubt, the Local Authority should be consulted to confirm exact requirements. The loft conversion must be comply with local planning constraints, building regulations and structural requirements.
In the event of Planning Consent being required then Draft 2 Design Ltd specialises in producing these plans for submission to the Local Council. Production of the plans would usually take up to 3 weeks from instruction, and the submission and approval stage usually takes another 6 - 8 weeks.
Once planning has been obtained or if not required you will then need to have Building Regulation drawings produced and submitted to the council for approval. This is the necessary approval required as you are changing the use of the loft to Habitable. You may need the services of a Structural Engineer depending on the design required. In this event we can recommend a number of local Engineers. Production of the plans would usually take up to 3 weeks from instruction, and the submission and approval stage usually takes another 6 weeks.
Draft 2 Design Ltd will produce all the plans and specifications and we can deal with all planning and building regulation approvals on your behalf. Throughout the process we would keep you informed, ensuring that you are satisfied with the plans for your loft conversion.

text: On December 7, 1941, Japanese bombers and fighters destroyed 21 American battleships stationed on Hawaii's Pearl Harbor and killed over 2,000 soldiers. Yesterday marked the 65th anniversary of this tragedy. The memory of what happened still haunts us today. It should be a glaring reminder to us that our actions set the stage for world events, no matter how small, and that we are never invulnerable. I dedicate this blog to all of the veterans that continue to fight for liberty and against tyranny.

These are incredibly moreish desserts courtesy of The Culinary Bee. Prepare to amaze your guests or yourself with this treat!
For the Pastry
Get a large mixing bowl, and add all the dry ingredients together, stir until mixed. Add the cubed butter into the mixture, and rub between your fingers until it becomes crumbly Then add the egg yolks and vanilla. Mould into a ball, wrap it up in cling film/plastic wrap and chill in your fridge for 30 minutes.
You will not need all this mixture on the first go, I'd say save half for a rainy day, just wrap in cling film/plastic wrap and put it into your freezer.
Retrieve the chilled pastry from the fridge, and roll out on a floured surface, to the thickness of a 1 pound coin or 3 mm.
To bake, add to a greased tart tin, trim off any excess pastry, stab the bottom with a fork. Bake at 160 degrees for 10 minutes, line the tart filled with dried beans or rice in foil (something to weigh it down). After the 10 minutes are up, remove the foiled beans/rice, and continue to bake for 25 minutes until it resembles a biscuit.
Add the Salted Caramel to each tart, and then to make the ganache. In a cereal bowl melt the dark chocolate in the microwave (30 seconds stir, then another 30 seconds). Instantly add the double cream and stir until you achieve a thick chocolatey silky texture. Pour over the caramel and leave to set in the fridge for at least an hour. Serve when ready with some creme fresh.

Overall bookings for print grew 2.7 per cent year-on-year which can be attributed to the 11.1 per cent increase in agency spending to metro titles. The SMI figures revealed that regional papers also experienced growth in the month of August.
NewsMediaWorks chief excutive Peter Miller welcomed the positive agency growth figures. "They describe in the best way possible, a pause in thinking, and a return to powerful, dynamic, trusted news brands," he said "In a time of general mistrust of social media and other institutions, newspapers are journals of record."
The positive result will flow through to the quarterly News Media Index, to be released later this month.
The News Media Index includes direct bookings to publishers, which represent around 56 per cent of total news media revenue, as well as agency bookings, lifting total revenue for the sector to $2.02 billion.
The positive SMI results extend to Australia's overall media agency market which has recorded 12 consecutive months of growth, with spend up 1.8 per cent to $572.2 million for August.
While acknowledging the overall growth as an impressive achievement, Jane Ractliffe, SMI Australia and NZ managing director, notes the return to growth of newspaper media as the main highlight.
"The print editions of newspapers have clearly been most affected by digital disruption, but to the industry's credit it has continued to invest in its businesses in difficult times and now it's paying off," she said.
Bookings for outdoor media saw the largest growth at 22 per cent, followed by radio at 9.4 per cent.

I really want to go see the Twilight movie. But I have no one to go see it with. And going to a movie alone seems…less enjoyable. Maybe I'll just wait until I can kick the hubby out some evening and rent it at home…I did enjoy watching the other movies at home alone. And I didn't feel bad wasting money to see them. :-P
I just finished reading the Twilight series. For the third time. I just picked up the first book for the first time at the end of March. This is an obsession. Oh well, it's better than many obsessions out there!
My new garden box was doing AWESOME. Until I watered it for 5 hours (forgot while I went to work). And then didn't the next day, because I figured it had plenty. And then it was RIDICULOUSLY HOT today and when I looked outside in the afternoon everything was all wilty. Crap. Hope I didn't lose all my cucumbers/zucchini. Ironically, the melons are doing great!
I would like to smack whoever came up with "It's a dry heat." Ninety degrees is easier to handle in places where homes have air conditioning!
Of course, there are those crazies who love the sun. A friend's facebook status: "[Friend's name] just had 4.5 minutes of hot, passionate, unprotected sun! I usually have such good safe sun practices too…but it seemed like so much fun…and everyone else is doing it……*sigh* Next time I'll use sunscreen." HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! I mean, she's crazy, but at least she's funny and crazy!
Speaking of things that made me laugh: Go watch this (or maybe the thingy below will work).
