An Old Method of Mounting Radiolaria
Sometimes we use our own methods of mounting things that are perfectly satisfactory but occasionally when reading through old literature from the Victorian era we chance upon a method that really is excellent and much better than what we have. This is a description of just such a method from that age, which is equally suitable for use in dry mounting as in Canada Balsam.
Is begins with having a sieved washed sample of Radiolaria that has first been washed in acid and looks clean and bright in good light, before mounting.
Preparation is as with most things the key to success. Quality 3X1" glass slides need to be well washed and quality Gum Tragacanth as well as a ringing table is required.
Mountng in Resins such as Canada Balsam or Eukit.
The Gum Tragacanth solution must first be prepared . I use the lid of the gum jar as a painters pallet and add one very small portion of gum to a large pool of distilled water on the lid. When the gum is fully dissolved there must be no blobs of mucilage visible. If there are any blobs, use a pipette to suck them up and add more water, until nothing is visible in the fluid.
The clean 3X1" slide is placed on the ringing table and a little paintbrush is used to run a circular pool of gum water onto the centre of a rotating glass slide. Check that the circular disk of gum/water is stable, sometimes it prefers to run off into pools. Then perhaps the suface is contaminated and an alcoholic wipe might help.When the liquid is correct, dry it off with gentle heat until quite dry. One should be able to see a dried up but complete feint disk of dry gum . If it is too white and prominent, wash it off and try again with less gum or more water. Remember, that the dried up disk of gum will become the same diameter as the completed strew of Radiolaria.
Then make sure the slide is cool . Here a cold plate from a fridge might help, and breath on it. Ones breath should condense on the glass in droplets but the disk of gum will become slightly liquid, as it absorbs moisture. Then pour the shells from a Petri dish onto the central disk quite thickly and then invert the slide smartly over the Petri dish so that most of the loose shells return to the dish. Tap the glass to make them fall. Then use the warmth of a lamp to dry the thing off fully and again invert the slide over the Petri dish so that the shells that landed on the liquefied gum remain, but those that landed on damp glass now fall, having dried out. One should now be looking a a clean disc of Radiolaria surrounded by clear glass. Make sure that the whole slide is dry by heating under a lamp.
Then a resin like Canada Balsam thinned with a little Xylene is dropped on the middle to help expel the air from the shells. Then place a drop of thicker Balsam or other resin over the shells and lower a cover slip.
This may seem to be quite a performance for a tiny circle of Radiolaria, but it will be worth the effort. The resin may then be dried off with heat in the usual way, and the slide labelled.
Dry Mounting
Dry Mounts may be constructed in a similar manner but first an aluminium ring must be cemented to the glass and a black background must be laid and dried . More care is needed in any heating or the paint may be damaged. The circle of gum-water can then be laid using the ringing table. When this is successful the same procedures can be followed but without the Canada Balsam or other resin of course. This same system can also be used to renovate a very old slide that has through the ravages of time become thoroughly unsuitable for use. The method itself was I know learned from a very old book but I am afraid that I have long forgotten the reference or the original author of the idea.

Structrual Repair – Rubbing Strake, Beamself, Carlin work…
Having replaced the stem and satisfied myself that the underwater section of the hull was in good shape thought turned towards getting the large hole where the foredeck was supposed to be sorted.
Another chunk of rainforest was ordered, several cubic feet of which can be seen in planking form sat on the floor of the forecabin:
A section of the teak planking on the port bow had been replaced in the past with Iroko as part of what appears to be a very large accident repair.
The badly replaced deck fitted in the 90′s had allowed freshwater to run into the end grain of this planking and caused a fair amount of rot.
The hull itself is "double diagonal" construction with two layers of 15mm thick planking run at 90degrees to one another with calico inbetween, then fastened with thousands of copper rivets.
Luckily the areas I needed to replace were mostly short lengths and there were existing joins hidden behind the rubbing strake, Here you can see some new timber as well as a section where i've stripped the rotten planking off:
This is where modern glues and adhesives really simplify the job – these short lengths are bedded onto polyurethane rather than calico, the scarfs are epoxyed and eventually get sandwiched between the rubbing strake on the outside and the stringer on the inside:
At this stage I had to remove the handrail stanchions and bollards from the deck and strip off the remains of the rubbing strakes so I could replace the stringer inside:
With new stringers fitted the lower rubbing strake was replaced – this is through bolted to the stringer with m12 stainless bolts at 11″ centres:
The beamshelf which attaches the deck and hull together turned out to be badly rotted so I cut back the deck to gain access for replacement:
Showing the first 6″x1″ laminate being dry fitted – note the new stringer and rubbing strake bolts just below it:
16ft lengths of planking were used:
These photos show the process on the starboard side -
First the rubbing stake was replaced and through bolted in order to keep the shape of the hull when the deck and beamshelf are cut out.
The hull planking is fairly flexible and its the frames, stringers etc that help it hold its shape.
Once the old beamshalf is removed new packing blocks are fitted between the frames, these are 2×6″ iroko and bedded on polyurethane adhesive/sealant:
Then two laminates of inch planking are glued in and the whole lot is planed of to match the angle of the deck:
The original steel knees/breasthooks were cleaned up and refitted with m20 bolts:
New deck beams were cut out of 3.5″ Iroko:
The deck was trimmed back slightly more in order to replace a short length of the carlin which joins the deck and the cabintop together:
I'd got a very good deal on enough 2″ marine ply to replace pretty much all of the sidedecks at £50+vat a sheet as opposed to its list price of over £340 it was too good to miss!.
The foredeck and the very forward section of the sidedecks has quite a bit of camber (curve) as the 2″ ply is incredibly stiff (32 laminates of gaboon with less than 0.01% voids) I decided to laminate the foredeck out of two layers of inch ply.
This is budget "far eastern" marine ply at £96+vat a sheet and I wish I could have afforded something nicer – although its epoxy sheathed so it dosn't matter really
First bits of ply dry fitted:
And with the second layer epoxied down and a layer of epoxy and fibreglass cloth on top:
Better end this post here as its incredibly long!
Thanks for Reading,

Though the 996 GT2 holds the unofficial "widowmaker" title, no Porsche deserves the moniker more than the 917 (imagine wheel spin at speeds above 200 mph). Presented here is the Gulf racing #20 917 from the Porsche Museum: one of the most iconic liveries on one of the most fearsome and dominant race cars ever built.
The original acrylic-and-ink on stone painting is the 1st in the series and measures 24x12" (inquire if interested).
Each hand-signed Giclee canvas print is individually produced by the artist utilizing professional imaging technologies and methods. As a result of meticulous standards, the Giclee retains a beautiful painterly quality that preserves minute and subtle tints, blends and detail of the artist's original painting. The meticulous reproduction process and the use of archival pigments and museum-quality canvas produce a stunning piece that could easily be mistaken for an original. Canvas prints ship rolled and can be mounted, stretched or framed upon arrival.
The "917 Collection" option includes all three 917 "Stone" Canvas Prints (Pink Pig, Martini Racing 917 and Gulf Racing 917), each measuring 34x17". Each collection is individually signed and numbered. (All three prints numbered the same).
Frame is shown for reference only.

Disfigured ears and scars all over his body were evidence of what Somsak Somying, 50, went through while working on a fishing trawler for two years before he was arrested in the Malaysian seas and imprisoned there for several months.
His mother, 72-year-old Iat Somying, cried tears of joy as she recounted the unexpected return of her son last Thursday (Sept 6) after she and everyone else in the village had lost hope of ever seeing him again.
"I always missed him and thought he was dead. I regularly performed a merit-making rite for him and prayed he was resting in peace," said Ms Iat. "I don't wish for anything else now he's home with me again."
A northeastern wrist-binding rite known as bai si su khwan was performed yesterday (Sept 11) as a way for his family and other villagers to welcome him home.
In 1999, Mr Somsak, who was 31 at the time, left home with a friend from his village to work at a construction site in Bangkok. The friend later quit the job and left. Mr Somsak did not have any money and couldn't read or write, so he struggled to find his way home.
He moved from one construction site to another in search of work until 2015, when he was transferred to a construction site in Phuket. There he met a new friend who convinced him to pursue a "well-paid" fishing job.
A job placement company in Samut Prakan promised to give him B9,000 a month if he agreed to give up his ID card, he said.
"Working on a fishing trawler turned out to be an endless nightmare," said Mr Somsak.
He rarely had a chance to leave the boat, drug use was rife, and he suffered violent attacks from people armed with spades, he said.
He finally got out when he was arrested by Malaysian authorities and jailed for several months before an organisation helped him return to Thailand.
The same job broker in Samut Prakan then sent him to work at a factory for another two months until he was detained in a police raid, he said.
In lieu of any identifying documents the police struggled to reunite him with his family.
They were finally able to locate his sister who lives in another district of Surin who helped to bring him home.

Meanwhile, in China, things are "a lot worse than you think," says Bloomberg metals analyst Kenneth Hoffman who recently visited the country to assess the outlook for metals demand. This doesn't exactly come as a surprise. Falling demand from China has been a major factor in the collapse of iron ore prices which just today caused Australia's fourth largest miner to suspend production altogether and which last month prompted Fortescue Chairman "Twiggy" Forrest to break out the old "let's start a cartel" suggestion when discussing how to firm up prices. To let Bloomberg tell it, demand from China for the steelmaking ingredient won't be picking up anytime soon:
China's steel and metals markets, a barometer of the world's second-biggest economy, are "a lot worse than you think," according to a Bloomberg Intelligence analyst who just completed a tour of the country.
What he saw: idle cranes, empty construction sites and half-finished, abandoned buildings in several cities. Conversations with executives reinforced the "gloomy" outlook.
"China's metals demand is plummeting," wrote Kenneth Hoffman, the metals analyst who spent a week traveling across the country, meeting with executives, traders, industry groups and analysts. "Demand is rapidly deteriorating as the government slows its infrastructure building and transforms into a consumer economy."
Prices for commodities from iron ore to coal are sinking as China's leadership tries to steer the economy away from debt-fueled property investment and smokestack industries, embracing services and domestic-led consumption. At the same time,
President Xi Jinping is stepping up efforts to combat pollution, further squeezing industry.
"There is a big fear this is going to get worse before it gets better," Hoffman said in an interview. "It's as bad as the data looks, if not worse."
And the data doesn't look so hot especially after last month's contraction territory PMI print and collapsing rail freight number. Then there's rising NPLs which are prompting the country's largest banks to slash payouts as loans to manufacturers sour in the face of the very same economic transformation cited by Bloomberg. Finally, China has a small smog problem and while Beijing is apparently trying to export some of this to places that can use a little more pollution (like the rainforest), some estimates suggest that cleaning up the country's air will come at the price of a 40% decline in industrial production.
Considering all of this, it's no wonder that Credit Suisse is out with the following bearish commentary which supports a rather dire outlook going forward:
We have made fundamental changes to our demand analysis for iron ore. Given sharply weaker regional steel prices, we now assume a reduction in Chinese steel exports over the period to end-2018. Given a weak domestic backdrop for steel consumption, this results in steel production declines over the next three years.
2016 is likely to be even tougher year than 2015 for prices as China steel production declines persist (forecast down 0.6%), Roy Hill mine comes to market, BHP adds 25Mtpa, and Rio Tinto continues its ramp up towards +350Mtpa output. In 2016, we expect the most marginal tonnes will have exited the previous year, so the reduction of China domestic tonnes and the retracement of "Other" seaborne tonnes will have slowed. Another period with aggressive pricing will be needed to clean out the new marginal tonnes. We forecast a price of $45/t CFR for the first two quarters next year.
Our China colleagues expect steel growth rates to be negative. Figure 10 shows how far China's domestic steel consumption has contracted from peak levels of 12 months ago.

Dog Training Tips For A Well-Behaved Furry Friend
Training your dog is important for an obedient relationship between you and your canine friend. Being prepared will help you overcome the ups and downs of training your dog. Equip yourself by reading the piece that follows.
Before you begin training your dog, you need to establish yourself as the alpha. Your dog will neither obey nor respect you if he believes he is the leader of your household. Your dog should not walk ahead of you, because that indicates a position of leadership.
Training a dog to roll over is a pretty simple task, just make sure to have a few treats handy! Start by getting the dog to lay down. Next, you must hold one treat close to the floor off to one side of their head and slowly bring it up and over the dog's head to the opposite side. This will cause your dog to use their nose to follow the treat. As a result, your dog will roll over. When he rolls over, you should say "roll over," and repeat the process until the command is all he needs to do so. Be patient while he masters this trick. He will be a star once he does!
As your dog responds to his training, you can begin to allow him more freedom. This balance between obedience and freedom will provide your dog with a very satisfying life. Be cautious on not giving your dog too much freedom right away, because this could have a bad effect when it comes to your dog's training.
Begin training your dog with a task that will be simple for him to learn. You will both get instant gratification and establish a good foundation which you and your dog can build on. You'll have better results this way.
Exercise the dog for an hour daily, along with regular potty time outside. Keeping a dog healthy with exercise allows for more efficient training sessions in the future. An exercised dog leads to having a responsive and happy dog.
Stick with positive reinforcement when it comes to dog training. Your dog should be rewarded with both small treats and happy words. Don't yell and/or hit your dog. This teaches your dog nothing and will just show him that you do not know how to train him. Be positive, firm and consistent to get great results while you train your dog.
Stay firm when you are training your dog. However, that doesn't mean yelling at your dog. Be loving while maintaining your authority. This fosters a strong relationship between you and your dog.
Make sure your dog knows how to obey, to reduce the frequency of their barks. As the dog begins barking, display a treat and then repeat your order until the barking ceases. You can then give it the treat. If you do this a lot of times your dog will know if they are not barking they will get a treat.
Use a steady and commanding tone when speaking to your dog. Dogs are great at understanding how their trainer feels. A firm but stern tone should be enough to reinforce discipline.
Over-training your puppy will expose it to too much at once, rendering the training less effective. Puppies do not have a very long attention span and limited energy, keep it brief and positive. If training sessions are too long, the puppy won't remember the specifics of the training session, just that is was grueling and exhausting. This will make it harder to train him next time.
One of the most important things to teach your pet is to listen to your voice. This article has some tips laid out for successful training. Training takes time and consistency so do not get discouraged if your dog does not pick things up as quickly as you want them to. Dogs learn by repetition and consistency, and the more you know, the better equipped you are to train your dog properly.

Are you looking for information about voluntary liquidation? The company liquidation process occurs where a company is insolvent or where its members want to terminate the company. The liquidation process involves winding up any financial affairs of the company so as to make the termination process as simple as possible. It involves dismantling the company's structure in an orderly fashion and distributing assets to creditors in accordance with the prescribed priority. As the name provides, this type of liquidation is elected by company members and is not court ordered i.e. it is voluntary.
Why chose Voluntary Liquidation?
Liquidation is the only way to terminate a company and wind up company affairs as it not only pays outstanding debts but also breaks down the structure of the company. Further, assigning these duties to an independent party ensures that all interests involved are protected without bias.
How can an insolvent company be wound up?
This can occur either by; resolution of its members, through the voluntary liquidation or administration or voluntary receivership provisions of the Corporations Act, or by the Court following application by creditors or members (this however would amount to an official liquidation).
Generally a company is wound up due to insolvency which arises where a company cannot pay all of its debts as they fall due. A solvent company can still be wound up via the usual member election or Court order upon application.
Who conducts a voluntary Administration of a company?
Members voluntary liquidation is carried out by a liquidator, who is usually a specialised accountant. Depending on the type of appointment a different subclass of liquidator will be appointed. Where an appointment is ordered by the Courts only one class of liquidator is able to administer the liquidation.
What is the role of a liquidator?
A liquidator finds, protects and releases the assets of the company. In addition a liquidator will investigate financial affairs, make appropriate recoveries, liaise with creditors, report to ASIC, distribute to creditors where assets are available and to shareholders where a there is surplus, and apply to de-register the company.
What effect does liquidation have on the company?
After voluntary liquidation and on appointment, a liquidator takes control of the company, which retains its structure until the liquidation. Directors will no longer have any control over the company, all bank accounts are frozen and employment can be terminated throughout this period. When the voluntary liquidation is completed the liquidator will apply to have the company de-registered with ASIC, following which the company will no longer exist.
Can trade continue during liquidation?
Throughout voluntary Liquidation of company a liquidator can continue to trade if it is viewed to be beneficial to creditors. This will usually be the case where i) there is a possibility that the company will be on sold or ii) where there is work in progress which can be completed for financial gain. However, trade must be discontinued as quickly and viably as practical.
How must directors assist the liquidator?
Directors are under a statutory obligation to cooperate with a liquidator during the voluntary liquidation process. Directors must provide liquidators with all of the information and records required to complete the liquidation, particularly those which detail assets and liabilities of the company. This includes handing over records and company books, providing information and a report regarding company affairs, and completing a Directors questionnaire.
What investigations are carried out?
A liquidator most commonly determines why a company is insolvent and when insolvency occurred. In addition investigations will be carried out to determine:
- If there is a potential insolvent trading claim against directors;
- If any preferential payments were made which can be recovered;
- Whether any agents, including directors, of the company have committed offences;
- Whether any void transactions can be overturned; and
- If any recoveries can be made.
Can a liquidator recover property that was sold prior to the commencement of the liquidation?
In instances where a transaction is improper, non-commercial or entered with the purpose of defrauding creditors, the property or its value may be recovered from the recipient. Any preferential payments made in the six months prior to appointment may also be recovered.
What is insolvent trading?
Insolvent trading is a claim for compensation instituted where a director has allowed a company to incur debts where they should be aware that they cannot be satisfied. If after winding up the company this debt remains outstanding, a director can be held personally liable to compensate the company for the corresponding amount.
Can a liquidator seize the director's personal assets?
A liquidator only has control over company assets and as such can only recover director assets where they have been taken from the company or the company has loaned them the director.
What is the effect of liquidation on personal guarantees?
As a personal guarantee is a direct arrangement between the creditor and the guarantor liquidation will have no effect where the guarantee is executed by a director or other party.
What is the effect of liquidation of secured creditors?
Liquidation does not usually affect the rights of secured creditors, however, they may allow the liquidator to sell the assets while still recognising their rights.
What is the effect of liquidation on unsecured creditors?
Unsecured creditors lose their right to recover in liquidation but still have a right to prove for dividends. Dividends must be paid in compliance with the priorities listed in section 556 of the Corporation Act:
- Costs and expenses of liquidation
- Cost of the creditor who applied for the winding up
- Employee entitlements
- Other unsecured creditors
How long do voluntary liquidations last?
The liquidation will last for as long as necessary although operate with the aim of finalising the liquidation as soon as possible. When the final meeting of creditors has been called and ASIC deregisters the company the liquidation will have come to an end.

Canadian indie rockers controller.controller are heading out on a cross country trek behind their debut album

The House Ways and Means Committee on Wednesday is scheduled to release its rewrite of Gov. Deval Patrick's final state budget proposal, a $36.4 billion spending plan the governor filed back in January. In the weeks since Patrick offered his proposal, lawmakers have heard many calls for increases in funding for mental health and substance abuse services, public higher education, and housing and shelter programs. The House and Senate have already agreed to boost local aid levels beyond the increases sought by Patrick and the unveiling of their own proposal next week will shed light on areas of agreement and disagreement with the governor, but more importantly begin setting the table for eventual House-Senate budget negotiations later this spring. Whether it's due to discord between the branches, genuine policy disagreements, or efforts to amass chips in a grander game of secret bargaining, top House and Senate Democrats this session have been unable to agree on specifics even on bills that have cleared both branches with big majorities, such as welfare reform, regulation of drug compounding companies, and efforts to prevent mercury from causing environmental damage.
State transportation officials weeks ago complained that important projects were being held up by the lack of agreement on a multi-year transportation bond but there's been no word about progress on that bill either from a six-member conference committee. The competing bond bills both authorize $300 million in Chapter 90 funds for local road repairs, but the Patrick administration this week notified cities and towns to expect only $200 million and it appears that any funds to fix up roads tattered by a damaging winter will arrive long after the start of the spring construction season. Both branches also agree that the state's minimum wage should be increased, that a pending unemployment insurance rate hike should be prevented, and that employers with stable workforces should get a break on rates. But even those agreements have been tinged by bickering among top Democrats over process, a dustup that has muddied the waters heading into the final four months of formal legislating for the 2013-2014 session.
The House plans a Tuesday session to take up Speaker Robert DeLeo's bill targeting domestic batterers and increasing penalties for domestic abuse. After an abbreviated formal session this week, the Senate plans to return for a formal session next Thursday when legislation aimed at repairing gas leaks will again be on the agenda.
Voters this week chose four new state representatives and one new state senator, but plans for swearing-in ceremonies are still taking shape with certification of the special election results required before the new members may be seated. It appears the new House members will be sworn in on April 16. Evandro Carvalho of Dorchester faces no opposition in the last House special election of the year on April 29. But even with an influx of five new members this spring, five more House districts will go unrepresented for the rest of the year due to recent resignations.

Kaatrin Mozhi has been leaked online. The full movie is available on various torrent websites for 'free downloading'. The pirated versions are of different qualities. The reports in the media suggest that the film, which received mixed reviews from the audience, is the latest target of the piracy websites. The mass entertainer just started doing some good business at the Box Office. However, seems like the leak will now affect its business at the ticket window.
The film Kaatrin Mozhi is joining with Jyothika and Direction Radha Mohan. The movie was released on 16.11.2018. Within hours of the First Show, the film came to the internet. The film duplicate version was uploaded by Tamil Rockers.
Kaatrin Mozhi is a relatively small film and has been shot against a limited budget. However, it still needs to have a good Week 1 in order to reap profits. As the WOM is positive, several trade experts feel that Kaatrin Mozhi is set to have a healthy weekend. However, as it has fallen prey to piracy, the weekend collections are likely to affected big time.
Piracy is one of the biggest challenges facing Kollywood. In the past, films such as Kaala and Seema Raja were leaked online within hours of hitting the screens. And, needless to say, this affected their box office collections big time. Similarly, the recent biggie Sarkar got leaked in HD quality on Day 1 itself and this left everyone in a state of shock.

Edel Donegan, full-time English teacher at Active Language, Cadiz shared her insights on a TEFL event held in Cordoba, Spain called The Image Conference.
I chose to attend The Image Conference in Cordoba primarily as a means for personal and professional development. Technology and images are something that I have been interested in since my BA at University and I try to incorporate this into my classroom whenever possible. Secondly, as a teacher who has not always been entirely comfortable in front of a group of teenage students, I saw it as an opportunity to learn more about things that my teens are interested in and to make classes, and ultimately English, more engaging to them.
The day as a whole was long! Unlike other TEFL conferences, the talks were all squeezed into one day which started early and finished late. So, it was somewhat of an information overload. That being said, the information that was presented was – for the most part – fascinating! I was particularly impressed with the talks by Ceri Jones, Shaun Wilden and Fiona Mauchline, for practical exercises that can be used in class. Theoretically, Daniel Barber was very interesting in his talk on brain imaging. As a fan of FilmEnglish.com it was a great pleasure to hear Kieran Donaghy's opening plenary.
As a whole, I thoroughly enjoyed my day at the Image Conference and it is an event that I wouldn't hesitate to attend again. It broadened my mind to thinking about how and why we use screens in the classroom and personalising activities to students' very own "photo albums in their pockets". It was a very positive experience and one which I would thoroughly recommend to any teacher who is interested in this topic as a means for personal and professional development.

Esto es lo que sale hoy (podeis pinchar arriba):El comentario al que hacía referencia anteriormente es este:
Obviously Foehammer got the bug fixed.
I wish it had been a bug, but instead it was the intentional disabling of this site again by my hosting company LunarPages. I am no longer going to hide their part in the several times that the Anvil has gone offline unexpectedly. They outsource their support but claim that they do not. I am quite suspicious that what is described to me in nebulous emails from LunarPages as "script errors" that require blocking my site are simply transparent excuses made on the part of certain people that would much rather see this site off-line. LunarPages should be supportive of my blog for the very simple reason that I am a good customer and pay my bills and run a clean blog, but apparently that is not good enough anymore. Instead, I am expected to be bled dry for what little I might be able to afford in order to maintain a blog that has seen its traffic dwindle in no small part but as a result of such mischief as transpired earlier this week.
Between sites like Digg and my own hosting troubles, vicious personal attacks from religious zealots masquerading as anti-hate police and all the rest of the nuts that even have gone so far as to threaten my life, it can be of little wonder to anyone that is paying even scant attention that I am disgusted and no longer view this fight the same as I did a year ago.
The Internet is a battle ground between those who dare to put forth the Truth and those cowards that would run from it or those enemies that would hide it. Well, as I have intimated before, the Net is no longer enough. I will take my message and put it into play in new ways over the course of the coming decades. In time I will be vindicated on multiple levels by way of the simple expanse of history as it unfolds before us, but beyond that, I will do my own part in creative ways to defeat Islamism and the lemmings that would bring it to the USA.
A few bumps in the Information Highway are not going to stop me and they shouldn't stop any of us that care about the Truth and the Future.
Ojalá hubiera sido un error, pero ha sido retirada intencionalmente por mi proveedor, la compañía LunarPages. No voy a esconder su parte en las varias veces en que Anvil ha desaparecido inesperadamente. Tienen subcontratado el apoyo informático pero dicen que no. Tengo muchas sospechas de lo que me han descrito en varios nebulosos emilios de LunarPages como "errores de script" que requieren el bloqueo de mi sitio son simplemente excusas que hacen por petición de ciertas personas que les gustaría ver este sitio off-line.
Después dice que se está pensando seguir con el blog, pero que eso no le impedirá idear nuevas ideas de comunicar la Verdad para derrotar al Islamismo.

* All prices are Rolex's suggested retail price inclusive of V.A.T.
The Rolex Day-Date made its debut in 1956. Available only in 18 ct gold or platinum, it was the first wristwatch chronometer to display the date and the day of the week spelt out in full in windows on the dial. With the President bracelet, originally created specially for it, the Day-Date continues to be the watch par excellence of influential people.
From its launch in 1956, the Day-Date was immediately recognized as the watch worn by influential people. The Day-Date was the first calendar wristwatch to display the day written in full, as well as the date. Faithful to its noble origins, the Day-Date is made exclusively of 18 ct gold or 950 platinum.

Dynatrace Synthetic Platform 2017.08.09 release notes
The Dynatrace team is proud to announce the latest release of Dynatrace Synthetic available on August 9, 2017.
What's new in Dynatrace Synthetic?
New Test overview
The new Test overview, accessible from the Operational summary, provides interactive analysis and workflows for quick diagnosis of issues and detailed performance analysis of critical business transactions. The Test overview includes key performance metrics, active alerts, analysis of errors, trend charts, automatically detected anomalies, location breakdowns, step breakdowns, and 1st/3rd party resource analysis.
Key performance metrics
Step breakdown
Location breakdowns
1st party / 3rd party performance analysis
Inline visualization of Dynamic Problem Analysis results
In June 2017, we introduced Dynamic Problem Analysis, a real-time anomaly detection engine for your measurement results. We've updated it to include an inline visualization of automatically detected anomalies in the new Test Overview. Anomalies are highlighted in yellow and can be interactively analyzed with an easy workflow to the Problem analysis page.
Enhanced benchmark filters in the Operational summary
You can include or exclude all benchmark tests in the Operational summary page just by "flipping a switch". As of the July 2017 release, Benchmarks folders are included in the folder filter list, so you can focus on any set of benchmark tests that you define by grouping the tests in a folder.
REST API enhancements
The following enhancements have been made to the REST API Version 3.2:
- API support for histograms for any metric supported.
- API support for Benchmark data.
- API support for metric data trimming
Superseded features
Based on customer feedback, we continue to make changes in our approach to 3rd party categorization and analysis. In April, we released the new interactive waterfall analysis with automatically identified 3rd party resources and the new API Version 3.2 that enables easy access to 3rd party data. With this update, we've included 3rd party resource analysis inline in the new Test overview.
We are retiring the following features in favor of the recently released 3rd party capabilities:
Third party services dashboard
Third party tab in the Performance dashboard
Third Party page in the Synthetic Mobile app – Note that the tab remains in the app but no information will be displayed.
Resolved issues
This issue has been resolved in the 2017.08.09 release:
- PORTAL-6922 – New user could not be created if the user's email address contained an apostrophe.
Technical notes and known issues
While this release has been tested extensively to ensure that it works with all supported platforms and technologies, certain issues cannot be addressed from the product side. See the technical notes and known issues page for supported environments, significant technical details, and product limitations. Refer to our knowledge base for tips and workarounds.

"In The Loop" is easily one of the funniest and most scathing films I've seen this year. The dialogue may fly at a mile-a-minute but that's only more reason to see it again because it's so memorable. The most memorable dialogue comes from spin-doctor Malcolm Tucker, played by Peter Capaldi in a breakthrough performance. Empire has collected some of his best swear-laden insults and compiled them into a must-see video which you can see after the jump.
"In The Loop" is currently playing in a limited release in the US and on some OnDemand networks depending on your cable provider. If possible, see it now.

Hadoop File System Commands
September 26th, 2012 4 comments
I just took a Hadoop developer training in the week of September 10. To me, Hadoop is not totally new as I've tried HelloWorld sample and Serengeti project. Still, I found it's nice to get away from daily job and go through a series of lectures and hands-on labs in a training setting. Believe it or not, I felt more tired after training than a typical working day. This post is not much new but just helps me on the commands when needed later.

Most companies that attempt fundamental transformation fail. From a ten-year study of over 500 firms, Professor Tabrizi found the successful ones share common practices: from creating an initial sense of urgency and top-down alignment, to building cross-functional teams with the stamina to "reassemble a flying plane," to committing to ruthless operational execution and dramatic cultural change.
Hewlett-Packard and Oracle had unique transformation goals yet shared common practices. H-P's top management set goals, timetables, and performance expectations for a multi-pronged overhaul of its operating model, capital structure, R&D investment, and IT infrastructure. Oracle's transformation from an amalgam of seventy "little companies" to an integrated, cost-efficient structure was launched with a top-down sense of urgency, coupled with changes in performance incentives to get employees on board.
Dr. Tabrizi is a Professor of Management Science & Engineering, Stanford University, and the author of "Rapid Transformation." He received his MS and PhD from Stanford University. Ann Livermore is Executive Vice President, Technology Solutions Group, Hewlett-Packard Co. She holds an MBA from Stanford University, and she serves on the board of UPS. Safra Catz is President of Oracle Corp, and has been a board member since 2001. She earned a JD from University of Pennsylvania Law School.
