Now however, combined with additional personell as well as the large resource pool of experienced consultants and seasoned veteran executives, we have also begun to branch out and to specialize in offering our new "Strategic Cloud Security & Compliance Framework" on an individual basis or set to be released the second quarter of 2014, our brand new joint-venture web application solution, entitled "CSPComply" (CSP = Cloud Service Provider) will enable Enterprises to evaluate every key Public Cloud Service Provider on the market today (Salesforce, Amazon, Google, Oracle, VMware, Rackspace, IBM, etc), utilizing our own cutting-edge technologies such as our own proprietary real-time big-data analytics engines & proprietary & patented mobile device real-time on-site auditing systems combined with our own independent & extremely aggressive group of professionally trained auditors who will work around the clock physically inspecting each and every CSP property, once they've reach the last vendor on the list, they will turn around and start all over at the beginning in a never-ending cycle of continuous and extremely aggressive auditing of every vendor who wishes to participate in our program. Every Audit will consist of inspecting. This is just a tiny sampling of what our audits consist of in order for you to understand just how comprehensive and fact-based our analysis will be. We offer the most factually based CSP Risk Assessment Solution on the planet, Period:
Physical Premise Security
- As you may or may not be aware the NSA was able to use fake badges to get into Google's data-centers and actually splice (cut) into cables, attached wires to miniature data retrieval devices which was then able to capture the data. Apparently there was some encryption they had to break through at one point however, it was so weak it was cracked within a matter of minutes, which was when the thieves we're quoted as laughing about how stupidly easy it was…
Employee Password Policy & Procedures
- Again, the NSA was able to pierce almost every password they encountered & along with 95% of all Breaches last year occurred from unprotected email or insecure passwords. Passwords such as "1234" which was the most common password found in all breaches combined (hundreds of millions of user accounts and passwords) in 2013….this very basic security practice takes absolutely minimal time (perhaps 30 minutes) to setup and another 30 minutes to train someone on. You tell us, why those in charge of infrastructures (whether it be corporate IT or Cloud Service Provider Infrastructures) cannot be bothered to put forth an hours worth of work to ssave their company and customers from a fatal breach of critical/personal data?
Hardware Redundancy/Replication
- A properly designed and built infrastructure should have at least two of every single device within the network. Absolutely Everything Must Be Duplicated/Replicated in order to be able to obtain 100% Up-time which is one of the primary reasons you never find 100% Up-time as they attempt to "build a world-class infrastructure on a shoe-string budget which, does NOT work….
- We will not only verify this as fact or fiction but make them turn off the primary device and VERIFY their "failover" solution works….It is one thing to spend the money to replicate everything 100% and quite another to be able to configure them so they actually will take-over fast enough and with enough intelligence that there is zero data-loss. There are as many different "fail-over" schemes as there are devices which is why the proper one needs to be in place and the key is that every device pair, be tested on a regular basis to verify they continue to provide the protection that you spent the money for.
Regular Scheduled & Unscheduled Fail-over Testing
- Proper ongoing and regular as well as unscheduled (surprise) testing of fail-over/redundancy testing is crucial to maintaining a 100% up-time environment which again is why 99.99% of hosted environments or enterprise environments never obtain the 100% up-time mark and in fact many believe it to be a unreachable and unattainable goal (A Myth) when the truth is it ONLY TAKES A LOT OF HARD WORK AND DEDICATION TO PROPER PROCESS AND PROCEDURE to maintain 100% up-time which the majority of infrastructure departments are just not interested in putting down their donuts long enough to accomplish….But we WILL test for all of these and report the facts of what we find as well as the true up-time percentages via our own dedicated monitoring of every vendor and each of their networks.
- Service Level Agreements (SLA), Vendor Contracts (For example hardware & software support contracts, hardware on-site replacement policies, etc.) Subcontractor Contracts, Certifications, internal audits, employee contracts, etc., ITIL systems, Internal Documentation Policy & Procedure as well as systems used for managing all that information such as knowledgebases, CRM dashboardds, inventory & contracts management systems, etc…
Legal Issues
Both Ongoing and Previous
- Lawsuits against the vendor or any of its employees and the details of each, Better Business Bureau (BBB) complaints and current standing and their resolutions, if any,
Operational Infrastructure Efficiency
- A Solid Operational Infrastructure is the basis for any decently run data-center. Everything from Encrypted Password Database (You might be surprised how many enterprises use excel spreadsheets, sticky-notes, word documents, to store their passwords in without any safety precautions whatsoever), Crisis Management Policy & Procedure & Training, Change-Management, Monitoring/Alerting/Reporting systems and policies, escalation policy and procedures, IP Management, Inventory Management, Data-Center Automation, Backup & Restore Systems & Policies & Procedures, Ongoing DR Training, Regularly Planned & Unplanned Systems Testing (redundancy/failover testing, complete system/partial/single file restore tests, penetration tests, syn-flood tests, performance tests, etc.)
Processes & Procedures
- Every Process & procedure will be evaluated for inefficiencies and deficiencies
Employee Turnover Ratio
- Frequent turnovers means a non-conducive environment for things such as happy employees, attentive employees, passionate employees, hard working employees, etc. large and frequent turnover of employees means employees will most likely be angry and likely to not only be rude on the phone with you but not give a damn about their job or employer which translates into not caring whether the job gets done properly or even gets done at all (this could easily include your backups, file encryption, forgetting to turn your systems back up after an outage or system freeze or a hundred different other things which could critically damage your business), it will also mean without a doubt much worse trained employees who do not pay attention during training and could care less…We feel strongly that especially in a Service Oriented Business Employee Happiness is a Key Indicator and should most definitely be a Critical Key Factor in your Decision Making Process! As absolutely every survey over the past 20 years has shown unequivocally, considering the (not the wealthiest but the MOST SUCCESSFUL, there is a huge difference in that one gets there through honorable means while one arrives through ANY means) every successful business person who has been able to successfully obtained fortune 500 status in one of the extremely competitive and difficult services sector, has stated unequivocally that their
Number One #1 Contributing Factor of their Success is "Happy Employees"
- who basically never leave…..they have absolutely zero turnover ration other than for medical or reasons unrelated to the actual business environment.
Cloud Security & Compliance Risks for the Enterprise
2013 is being hailed as the "Year of the Cloud Breaches" or the "Year of the Internet Breaches" and for good reason. Hundreds of Millions customer accounts we're compromised, including the IRS, ObamaCare, NSA, Target, Ebay, Forbes, Amazon, Facebook, just to name a few of the high-profile successful hacker attacks last year…and 2014 looks already to be an even worse year for successful breaches. Look for hackers to target the cloud more and more as more of the data they want becomes stored there.

Application Architecture
We can analyze your current SaaS, IaaS, PaaS or other application architecture platform solution and in some cases we've been able to increase performance by 500% overall
Stage – 1: Initial Needs Assessment & Scope of Work (SOW)
- This step of the process normally takes approximately 2-4 weeks depending upon the size of the company and scope of work and involves a lot of meetings with stakeholders, reassurance through Q & A sessions, brainstorming sessions and a bit of PM work. Each of our consultants has been certified in both International Project Management & Master Project Management
- During this phase we meet with every single stakeholder and are taking copious & detailed notes during the interview
- The primary reason we perform the "Needs Assessment" prior to the initial "Infrastructure Analysis" (as many other consulting agency's do) is so that we can perform the analysis with specific areas of targeted focus, based on your company's unique needs & requirements rather than just a general focus like most consultants will perform. We firmly believe each client is unique, and so we adapt our process specifically for you and your needs.
- This enables us to drill down in greater detail in just the specific areas of need while still providing a good general analysis of everything as a whole but not wasting our time or your money (through the common practice of "padding" – billing you for useless billable hours) in areas which may not be that much of an issue. In other words it allows us to customize our focus based upon your needs.
- The first step of this phase consists of interviewing every "stakeholder" which means anyone who will come in contact with or utilize your infrastructure in any way. During these interviews we will ask a series of questions designed to extract the needs and requirements of each stakeholder with regards to their specific role as regards the company infrastructure, and their use of it. *We can even setup and perform customer surveys for you if needed to determine externally facing customer needs & requirements*
- Regular Employee Stakeholders – Obviously we cannot interview every employee so in the case where each employee within a company will be utilizing the infrastructure in some way (a stakeholder), we will perform a random sampling of 2-3 people from each team and/or department as well as the department heads.
- Management Staff Stakeholders – We will interview each of your management staff as in one way or another they're lives and work will be affected by the infrastructure either directly or indirectly and therefore it is important that they feel empowered and their concerns and needs be listened to if not addressed directly.
- Executive staff – It is critical that we have access to your executive team members on a private one-on-one, individual basis, at least for a minimum one-time interview of at least 30 minutes. It is helpful, the more access we are allowed to your executive team as only then can we gain a true understanding of your strategic makeup or what we call the "strategic company vision" which your executive team is (whether they know it or not) presenting to the rest of the company. This is crucial, possibly the most crucial part of the whole service we perform for you in that it gives us a tactical overview of how well your organization is focused and where the inconsistencies are which, will need to be addressed for you to have and present, a unified front to the rest of your employees. Some key issues we see in the majority of executive teams are; lack of cohesiveness with regards to differing strategic goals, inconsistent messages, inconsistent priorities, egocentricity/God complex, Segregation by departments/departmental wars. All of these can make a company dysfunctional in the extreme and extremely inefficient at a minimum and although not our primary purpose one of the things we are good at is feeling the "pulse" of a companies culture and environment, and one section of our final report will detail our findings for you in these areas for you to do with as you see fit. We are also able to help address these issues, with innovative solutions, if requested to do so.
- This phase ends with a final report we provide to you entitled "Initial Needs Assessment & Scope of Work"
- ETA – This stage typically takes some time as it is critical we gather as much information from as many "stakeholders" as possible. It is extremely important that everything is analyzed properly and all stakeholder needs and requirements be gathered and during this phase we will need to work around everyone's busy schedule. ETA 2-4 Weeks
Stage – 2: Initial Infrastructure & Operations Analysis
- After interviewing each person involved in any way with your current and future network & operational infrastructure, one of our infrastructure & operations experts, all of whom have a wealth of not only consulting but more importantly real-world experience designing and implementing world-class network & cloud infrastructures, spends time evaluating your current IT, engineering infrastructure & network operations departments and physically examines and performs many tests which are required, on the complete physical systems architecture, in order to produce the detailed data required to enable us to move to the next phase in the process. Details such as Security, Overall Network Performance, Release Engineering Process, Test Automation Process, Compliance Readiness, Disaster Recovery Readiness, Identity Management, Sound Operational Infrastructure Foundation, IDS/IDP Solutions, High-Availability, Infrastructure Redundancy, Data-Center Automation, Business Continuity, Overall Network Design, Server Hardening Practices, Kernel Customization Practices, Ticketing Systems, Customer Satisfaction, SLA Percentages, Application Architecture, Security Patching Process, Escalation Practices & Procedures & Swat Team/Crisis Response Readiness, Knowledge Utilization, Vendor Contracts Management, Storage, Overall Application Performance, Back-end Database Performance and Fail-over Process, Data Retention & and most important Monitoring, Alerting and Reporting are investigated, (While this list is far from comprehensive it gives a good idea of the types of things we can analyze however, we try to perform a custom targeted analysis on those specific areas identified in stage 1 as this will save us time and you money, unless directed to do a complete detailed analysis regardless of specific needs and requirements).
- During this phase in most cases we will need to physically inspect and perform standard testing on all of your current infrastructure, including any offsite/offshore infrastructure such as collocation facilities, remote data-centers, offshore development sites, etc. Occasionally we can discuss systems and infrastructure with an offshore location in enough detail to meet our requirements.
- This phase ends with a detailed report entitled "Current Detailed Infrastructure & Operational Analysis Report"
- ETA – This stage is typically one of the longest, as it is extremely important that everything is analyzed and tested in order to analyze current operational effectiveness and to set a base operational effectiveness level to measure future improvement from. The testing of your systems is very important and will never interrupt your production environment. The tests performed are all standardized and industry accepted tests which, should be happening on a regular basis within your environment anyway, if they are not, we can train your staff to do so on a regularly scheduled basis as this is critical to knowing where you are and where you need to go and what strategic decisions you'll need to make moving forward. Without the data from these tests you are driving your business blindfolded. 90-120 Days
Stage – 3: Research & Development
- During this phase our team of experts does an amazing amount of research. Utilizing our massive database as well as the internet and our impressive network of technology resources it is our job to match each need and requirement with between 3-6 of the best solutions available on the market. We examine both commercial and open-source as well as hardware and software based solutions and are strictly vendor neutral. We do not partner with any vendors to sell their products and have trained our staff to be 100% objective when it comes to solutions. Our goal is to provide you with suitable solutions to meet your needs based upon your requirements, period.
- "Needs Met Report – A List of Technology Solutions to Meet Your Currently Assessed Needs & Requirements"
- ETA – Typically we can wrap this stage up fairly quickly within 1-2 weeks
Stage – 4: Head-to-Head Tests & Final Solutions Selection
- During this phase we develop, either on-site or in our own dedicated facility, a lab whereby we can begin testing each of the 3-6 solutions for each need/requirement which were identified during the previous stage.
- Based upon a proprietary set of criteria we begin running head-to-head tests. Based upon those criteria we will determine which of the solutions best meet your needs.
- At the completion of this stage you will receive a complete report entitled "Head-To-Head test Results"
- ETA – This stage typically takes 1-2 weeks
Stage – 5: POC or Proof of Concept Stage
- During this final stage we work hand-in-hand with your product engineering and infrastructure operations/IT departments as well as the executive team to verify all needs and requirements have been met and or exceeded.
- Finally you will receive a complete, extremely detailed, leather bound executive report which you can use to implement your Strategic Cloud Solution well into the future. The report is unique and will only be found through our company and is entitled "Executive Strategic Cloud Technology RoadMap" it will have your company name and logo embossed on the front cover and will serve you well for moving forward with the strategic decisions you will need to make, in an enlightened and informed manner.
- ETA – Typically this stage will run from between 60-90 days
Overall the completed process takes from between 5 – 10 Months to deliver the completed report however, we thrive in high-intensity and high-pressure environments and are always willing to compress the time-frame for clients who need something more urgently.
Stage – 6: Design & Build-out
- We also offer to continue on after you receive your report in order to manage the complete design and build-out/implementation of the actual solution. At this point you have the decision to keep us on to perform the actual work of you can take the knowledge and data step-by-step instructions we've provided and do it yourself.
- ETA – This phase obviously depends on how big the actual implementation project will be. If its just installing BMC Bladlogic Suite or an EMC storage Solution it may only take 3-4 months. A complete data-center built from scratch normally takes 18-24 months so this stage runs between 3 – 24 Months depending on the scope of the solution we'll be implementing for you.
Finally, it is important for you to know that we offer a completely modular service structure. As we've stated, no two company's needs/requirements are exactly alike and so we realize you may only require help in a single phase or maybe two or three phases. How many and which phase(s) you need, is for you to determine, if you need help determining that we can absolutely and many times do help our clients with exactly that, free of charge. Just give us a call or shoot us an email and we would be happy to discuss your company's needs in detail and help put together a plan and package you can live with. Our ultimate goal is 100% customer satisfaction and with that being said everyone of us is here for you.Give us a call today, don't wait until its too late!

My father always used to say: There's nothing quite like a protracted remodel to test a person's sanity.
Still, it was clear the handprints on the ceiling were real, not imagined.
Dammit. My mind cast about for a way to explain them to my clients. They weren't flat, as if someone had used their hand to steady themselves while teetering atop scaffolding or a tall ladder. Rather, it looked like someone had dragged five fingers along the surface of the ceiling's wet plaster or paint, resulting in a subtle chicken-scratch pattern fanning out in concentric circles around the hole for the light fixture.
The ceiling had been perfect yesterday.
As with so much of what was happening on this jobsite, it was...disturbing.
My clients, Katenka and Jim Daley, stood with me amidst the construction debris and dust. The workers had finished for the day, and the house was quiet save for the loud cooing of eight-month-old Quinn, who squirmed like a baby kangaroo in a padded pouch slung across his father's stomach.
We gazed up at the twelve-foot high coffered ceiling of what would be an elegant dining room as soon as the walls and ceiling were patched and painted, the antique light fixtures re-wired and re-mounted, and the inlaid wood floors sanded and stained. The Daley's home, an 1890s Queen Anne Victorian in San Francisco's Cow Hollow neighborhood, was structurally sounda pleasant surprise, rare for structures from that erabut decades of operating as "The Cheshire Inn", a boarding house for drifters, down-at-the-heels bachelors, and homeless cats, had left their mark. The home's bones were exquisite, but the rest required plenty of renovation, repair, and ornamentation. Queen Anne Victorians were celebrated for their elaborate decorative designs and lavish "gingerbread" details.
This is where I come in. Mel Turner, General Contractor, Jill of All Trades.
But at the moment, I feared my crew and I weren't the only entities at work within the ornate halls and chambers of the historic house. I had been tryingand failingto ignore or explain away the series of strange events that had plagued the project from its inception: lumber and sheetrock disappearing from one spot and then showing up in another; work gloves and safety goggles right there one moment and gone the next; rusty old deadbolts locking and unlocking though the keys had long since been lost; footsteps resonating overhead when no one was upstairs. A handful of workers had already walked off the job, unwilling to deal with the unexplained occurrences.
"Are those...handprints? On the ceiling?"
Katenka's heavy Russian accent made it sound as though she were swallowing her vowels. Dark, wavy hair hung halfway down her back; her big brown eyes were limpid; her posture languid. She had just celebrated her thirtieth birthday, but appeared much younger. This was due to her petite stature as well as her penchant for gauzy baby-doll dresses, a wardrobe choice completely unsuited to a foggy San Francisco December.
Since I was known for my own offbeat fashion choices, I wasn't about to cast stones...still, whenever I was in the same room as Katenka I had to stifle the entirely uncharacteristic urge to bundle her up in a big fluffy sweater.
If Katenka inspired such protectiveness in someone as cynical as me, I could only imagine what havoc she wreaked upon the average heterosexual man.
"Yep, they look like handprints to me," I answered with a nod.
"Maybe from the painters?" Jim offered.
"Sure, that must be it," I lied, hoping he didn't notice there wasn't a paint brush in sight. This project was nowhere near ready for the final decorative stages; we hadn't even started with plaster repair, patching, and mud. "We'll take care of it, don't worry. You won't even notice them once we're done."
"Great." Jim was a typical thirty-something Bay Area high-tech professional: he wore stylish eyewear, his hair was artfully cut and tousled, and he spent what few leisure hours he had training for triathlons or bicycling up Mount Tamalpais. At least he had until his son was born. Now he threw his energy into parenthood. Which was a good thing: Jim seemed better cut out for it than Katenka, who struck me as bemused, even outright discomfited, by her wriggling, demanding bundle of joy.
At the moment little Quinn was enthusiastically gumming his father's thumb, a long trail of drool marring the front of Jim's shirt as though left by a giant snail.
"He's cutting a tooth," Jim said with an indulgent chuckle.
I returned his smile, enjoying the sight of a dad with his beloved boy. Jim was easy to work with...with one exception: he had been adamant about living in the basement apartment while we worked on the house. My own father, the original Turner of Turner Construction, had cautioned me against allowing clients to remain on-site during renovations. Apart from the obvious problems with the dust, the noise, and the early-to-rise hours of the construction trade, there were aspects of the job that clients really didn't need to know about. Incessant raunchy jokes and blaring rock music were only the beginning. There were also the occasional, but inevitable, mini-disasters: broken windows or fried wiring, any number of "oopsies" that we would make good in time, but that I'd rather the clients didn't witness.
Maybe because I was a womannot a gruff former Marine like Dador simply because I lacked sufficient backbone, I had a hard time enforcing this policy. Katenka and Jim insisted on living downstairs, and they were paying the bills. In the high-end construction business, the one with the checkbook rules.
And as a principal in a successful internet start-up, Jim's pockets were deep enough to return this Queen Anne to its former glory. In fact, he possessed an almost messianic drive for historical restoration, and spared little expense.
These are highly attractive traits in a client.
"Is very dusty. Dust everywhere," Katenka commented as she glanced around the dining room, delicate nostrils flaring.
"Hard to avoid on a construction site, I'm afraid."
"Oh, by the way, Mel," Jim said. "I've taken the liberty of calling in a green construction consultant."
"Is that right?" I said, trying to keep a neutral expression on my face. I'm territorial about my construction sites. When a general contractor is on The Job, they own The Job. There was a reason my workers called me "the General" behind my back.
Apparently my attempt to cover up my feelings was not successful. No surprise there. Diplomacy has never been my strong suit.
"I know you're pretty green already, but it makes me feel better to have an expert on the job," said Jim, his tone conciliatory. "I'm sure you two will get along great. As a matter of fact, he mentioned you know each otherhis name's Graham Donovan."
"Yes, I do know Graham." I said, my emotions reeling. The sexy contractor and I "had history." The kind of history I didn't want to dwell on while in the company of clients.
"And check this out," Jim said, using his free hand to pick up a package from a plywood plank laid across two sawhorses. "I had this plaque made. I was thinking you could put it up when we're all done."
The gleaming brass plaque read:
"That's beautiful, Jim," I said. Okay, Jim Daley had more going for him than just deep pockets: he loved this house. As one who is enamored of historic homes, I felt a certain kinship.
Quinn's adorable coos escalated into a fretful whimper. His chubby legs danced and his tiny arms flapped.
"Chow time! I'd better go feed the baby," Jim said. "Coming, honey?"
"You go. I come after. In a minute." Katenka's mouth tightened and one side pulled down in a barely-there grimace. I'd noticed that expression before. It was usually directed at unpleasant tasks...or just about anything involving her son.
Still, in her big hazel eyes I read a mixture of eager concern and trepidation. I found it hard to warm to Katenka, but a part of my heart went out to her. The unceasing demands of an infant would be tough for anyone, especially someone living in a foreign country without her family.
"Take your time," Jim said, kissing the top of her head. "Let's order Thai tonight, what do you think?"
She shrugged.
"Indian?" The baby's distress spiraled up, his whimpering ceding to crying.
"Is greasy."
"Pizza?" Quinn started to wail.
"We decide later," Katenka said.
"Okay, sure, let me know when you're getting hungry, honey. See you tomorrow, Mel." Jim headed down the servant's hall to the rear staircase that descended to the basement-level apartment.
"Crazy," Katenka said, rolling her eyes. "He drive me crazy."
"The baby, or Jim?"
"Both. Mel, I must ask you some advice."
"I'm not much good at advice, Katenka..." At least with regards to one's personal life. Got a leaky faucet? I'm your gal. Trying to expedite a construction permit down at City Hall? I can give you a name. But problems with your marriage? You'd be better off soliciting advice from Larry King.
"I think we have uninvited guests in this house," said Katenka.
"I'm sorry?"
"Spirits. Ghosts. The souls of the dead still with us."
"I...uh, why would you think that?" Giving marital advice was sounding easier all the time.
"At night, I hear knocking. And footsteps."
"There could be any number of explan"
Katenka gazed at me imploringly as she played with the filigreed crucifix that hung from a fine silver chain around her swanlike neck.
"Please, Mel. I did research. It is said the spirits of the departed do not like to have their surroundings disturbed. And the renovation work, it disturbs surroundings, no?"
"Well, sure, that's sort of the point..."
Unfortunately, I couldn't dismiss Katenka's fears out of hand, given the odd events on this jobsite. Besides, this wasn't my first run-in with the unexplainable. Several months ago I met up with the confused spirit of a murdered acquaintance, and once I recovered from the initial shock I'd found the experience both annoying and fascinating. Since then I'd read up on the subject, but hadn't sensed anything more ghostly than the vague sensations of welcomeor the lack thereofI had always felt in historic homes. I had come to think of that paranormal experience as a one-time deal. Like the measles. Once you had it, you were immune.
Seems I was getting a booster shot.
"And when I go...when I go into Quinn's room," Katenka continued, "sometimes there feels like a black... what is the word? A black shadow? Following me."
"A black shadow? In the baby's room?"
"I feel it over my shoulder. As though it is trying to get in the room with me and the baby."
I swallowed, hard. The ghost I'd gotten to know had been irritating, but at least he never lurked over my shoulder in the form of a black shadow.
"I put up amulets," said Katenka. Her voice started to shake, and tears welled in her huge eyes. "I sweep, and sprinkle the Holy Water. I tell the ghosts to leave. I was very forceful, but it makes things worse. Now they are worse."
That explained the smudge bundles I had noticed earlier amidst bits of wood and wallboard. The scent of burnt sage reminded me of walking down Telegraph Avenue in nearby Berkeley, and was said to cleanse places of bad vibrations. It also reminded me of Thanksgiving turkey, but maybe I was a little food-fixated.
"It's unsettling to live in a home while construction is going on around you," I said. Though I believed her, I didn't want to jump to conclusions. "The knocking could be a twig against a windowpane, or the sound of old pipes. And the creaking in the walls"
My attempt to explain away the unexplainable was interrupted by the high-pitched whine of an electric drill that started spinning atop the temporary plywood worktable.
Katenka and I stared at the out-of-control contraption.
"Probably an electrical short," I said as I hurried to hit the "off" switch and unplug it from the wall. "Happens all the time in these old houses"
"Is no short," Katenka said, her tone fatalistic. "Is ghost. Maybe more than one. Even I think there is a cat ghost here. Is in the walls."
"A cat ghost?"
"I think maybe. I hear it, smell it sometimes."
"It could be an actual cat. I'll check the foundation for access"
"Have you found history of the house?" Katenka interrupted. "Maybe history could tell us about these ghosts."
I shook my head. A crucial element in restoring a historic structure was conducting thorough research into its past. But a trip to the California Historical Society hadn't turned up anything on the Daley's Queen Anne Victorian. Not even the name of the family that had built it. It wasn't that the history of the place was sketchy; it was non-existent. And that was odd. San Francisco isn't that old, or that large. Usually it was easy to find the paper trails left by its well-to-do citizens, whether articles in the newspaper's society section, or tax records, or architectural blueprints.
But not this time.
"You know the lady who used to live here?" Katenka asked. "The Cat Lady?"
"I've heard of her, but we haven't met."
"I went to see her yesterday. She admit to me she leave this house because of the ghosts. She say they try to kill her."
Our eyes met in silence.
"That's a bad thing, no?" Katenka demanded.
Why yes, I thought. In general, death threats were a bad thing. Death threats from the beyond? Worse.
Katenka's gaze shifted to a spot behind me, and her eyes widened. Her face went pale, her body rigid. I swung around to see what she was staring at.
But I saw nothing except the kitchen door. Standing open.
Waithadn't it been closed?
And then I saw it: a footprint in the dust on the floor.
I turned back to Katenka just as she wobbled, then crumpled, overcome with fright. I caught her before she fell to the floor.
Another footprint appeared. And another.
Coming toward us.

Food for thoughts
A quote:
One economic reason is that music is pure information. In economics, information is a devil -- it's impossible to manage. For example, the whole of economic theory is the theory of scarce resources. If milk is freely available, then the price of milk is down; if milk is scarce, the price is up: this is economic theory. But it doesn't work for music; it doesn't work for information as a whole. If I have a pot of milk, and I give it to you, I don't have it anymore. But if I give you a piece of information I still have it, I keep it. Which means that if I have something and I give it to you, I create something new: abundance. And this means that economic theory doesn't work for information, when that information can be separated from its material support - a CD, or whatever is the case today.

USB Type-C is the new hotness, and we're already seeing several manufacturers adopt the new (and improved) technology. The newest Google handsets and tablet all have Type-C, the LG G5 will have it, and even companies like Blu have moved to this tech for its newest Vivo phones. Whether we're ready or not, this is something that we'll see even more of moving forward.
While USB Type-C is essentially superior to its predecessor in every way, it's still a huge pain to move from something that's been around as long as microUSB. There's a good chance you have cables and chargers aplenty, and giving up the luxury of having multiple chargers pretty much sucks. I know, because I just did that very thing. Ugh.
This contest is now over.
The final results are listed below. If you've won, you will be contacted in the near future. Congratulations!
Everyone else - keep participating and stay tuned to Android Police so that you don't miss our upcoming giveaway announcements. You can follow AP on Twitter, Facebook, and RSS.

That's why we decided to team up with Tronsmart and help out some of you who may have recently made the jump to a USB-C handset and are feeling the panic of only having one or two chargers and cables. With what I'm calling a "USB Type-C Starter Pack," Tronsmart has hooked us up with some of the essentials to get everyone going with Type-C:
- 1x Type-C QC 3.0 Car Charger
- 1x Type-C QC 3.0 Wall Charger
- 1x MicroUSB to USB-C Adapter (2-pack)
- 1x USB-A to USB-C Cable Pack, 6 ft. (2-pack)
- 1x USB-C to USB-C Cable Pack, 6 ft. (2-pack)
That should be enough to get anyone started, and relieve some of the frustration associated with switching to the new USB technology.
I've had all of the above-listed pieces for a couple of weeks and have used them all. Like other Tronsmart products, they're all solid and get the job done very well. It's also worth mentioning that the cables and the adapters are all Benson-approved, so you don't have to worry about trashing your devices.
To enter, just hit the widget below. This one starts now, and will end on Monday, February 29th at 11:59 PM PST.
Good luck!

VISTA, CA: Diving equipment manufacturer Aqua Lung has selected Formula PR as its agency partner to increase national brand awareness.
The company chose Formula based on a recommendation from scuba-training organization the Professional Association of Diving Instructors, said Lauren Schuil, pro dive marketing coordinator at Aqua Lung. Formula has been AOR for that organization for the last two years.
In its new role, Formula will develop a PR program for both Aqua Lung and Aqua Sphere, which manufactures swim-training equipment, supporting the brands' new collections and reaching out to media outlets.
"We want to increase our national awareness and exposure of Aqua Lung and Aqua Sphere among consumers and with various media, especially non-endemic media," explained Schuil. "We do really well with dive-specific, swim, and triathlon-specific publications, but we want to branch out to some lifestyle media."
Schuil declined to name Aqua Lung's former agency partner, but said the company "outgrew them."
With four staffers working on the account, Formula president Michael Olguin said the firm will work to get Aqua Lung coverage in top-tier publications like Shape and Men's Journal.
"What we're trying to do is make scuba diving more accessible to a broader consumer audience," he said.
Aqua Lung handles social media internally, said Schuil, but Formula will collaborate with the in-house social media team on strategy and blogger outreach.
She added that Formula's first major project for the company will be the launch of the Aqua Sphere 2012 swim collection, which focuses on active lifestyles. Formula will also leverage Aqua Lung's partnership with American swimmer and seven-time Olympic medalist Amanda Beard to promote the new swim line.

What Runs Jeanette (Guest Post)
Today is Day 23 of April and Day 23 of the Health Activist Writers Month Challenge (HAWMC)! I'm going strong with a post each of those 23 days so far.
Today is a "Free Day" for the challenge and I decided to take advantage of the freedom of my choice and share an incredible guest post with you.
Jeanette is the sister of a good friend of mine. Although I have yet to meet Jeanette in person, I feel as though I already know her and have shared so many similar experiences. Please read through her story and let us both know what you think. Maybe this hits home for yourself or someone you know. Either way, it's totally motivating.
Between 2005 and 2008, I weighed anywhere between 105 and 160+ pounds. I weighed the most in January of 2006 and the least in December of 2007. I was approached by friends and family who would try to shake some sense into me. I was anorexic with workout bulimia. I would eat around 800 calories a day, making sure to record everything. And I mean, everything. I also spent at least an hour at the gym daily, sometimes going up to three times. I was irritable after 3 p.m. until I ate some soup and a piece of bread at dinner. I slept a lot because I didn't have much energy to do much else… unless a friend asked me if I wanted to workout in which case my answer was always yes.
So, how did Semester at Sea save my life? I stopped caring about my weight and focused on new experiences. I wanted to do and try everything.
Here's my story: Before I started college in the fall of 2005, I was warned of gaining the freshman 15. I'd never really been overweight and didn't have to watch what I ate so I wasn't too worried about it. I had a high metabolism from playing sports in high school. I would eat what I wanted at the cafeteria, purchase snacks, munch on candy while studying, drink, etc. I didn't notice how much weight I was gaining until someone said something to me over Thanksgiving break. I was a bit embarrassed by the weight gain but many other people I knew had gained some weight so I continued to think I was fine.
My university gives all of January off. Since I had so much time off from school, my mother decided to take us on a little vacation to Hawaii. It wasn't until we were in Hawaii that I realized I had gained a lot of weight. In high school, I probably weighed around 130 pounds. In January of 2006, I weighed close to or over 160. While I wasn't thrilled, I didn't change my habits much. I ate some more vegetables and went to the gym a bit more often. Just before school let out for the summer, I became appalled at my appearance. I looked around my university and saw mostly girls that wore a size 2. I felt like I didn't fit in. I felt like the fat girl.
That summer I hired a trainer, who I saw twice a week, and would go on 5 mile walks several times a week. I was very careful about what I ate, skipping dessert most of the time. It helped that my family tends to eat well-balanced meals. When I came back from summer vacation, boys were starting to notice me. Everyone saw that I had lost weight and told me how great I looked. So, I continued to eat healthy and go to the gym. I wasn't used to the attention and really liked it. I loved hearing that I was looking good from friends and boys alike. I decided that if a little weight loss got me some attention, a lot would get me even more attention. This was when I started to spiral downward.
At my lowest, I weighed less than 110 pounds. I looked fragile and a bit sickly. I was too thin for my frame. I loved shopping because I could fit into a size two, sometimes zero. I always wanted to go to the beach because I liked the way I look. Little did I know, my friends were worried about me and knew that how I looked wasn't right. My best friends at Chapman made several attempts to talk to me about my eating habits. One friend even said she was going to eat like me to lose weight and I cautioned her not to. I had some bs reason but deep down I knew I didn't want anyone to go through what I was going through. My boyfriend at the time would always take me out to dinner, knowing I would eat at least half of a high caloric meal. He was very supportive and great. He would always tell me that I was beautiful, no matter what, and he would always love me.
Semester at Sea was what truly changed me. Food was limited on the ship and I couldn't get by on power bars and romaine lettuce. So, I started eating peanut butter sandwiches. Whenever we were in port, I tried everything: crepes in Mauritius, paella in Brazil, sushi in Japan, anything and everything that caught my eye was fair game! I was finally eating again. You could say I went a little overboard and gained a little too much weight back, but I really needed it. I'm thankful every day for Semester at Sea, not only because of the wonderful experiences I had but also because it saved my life.
Today, I maintain a healthy weight by eating well, exercising and enjoying treats in moderation. I love sweets! I don't know how I ever counted calories every second.

My camera (Sony DSC-T100) is about 3 years old. It has worked perfectly in that time but recently, outdoor photos show a lot pink where it does not belong (sky, side walks, etc.). Indoor pictures still look great, with or without flash. Sounded similar to some of the bad CCD discussions I have seen, but my camera seems to have been built after that problem was supposedly fixed by Sony. I tried calling the number (866-703-7669) I have seen in several postings, but it does not seems to work.

I'm trying to download photos from the comera onto my computer. The USB cable is connected. I changed "communication" on the camera to PC connection (which made the "busy" flashing disappear). But I still can't download. ZoomBrowser cannot detect the camera and EOS Utility won't even pop up anymore. Before changing communications it would pop up but would only offer the option to manage folders, not to download.
The best way to download pictures from your camera to your computer involves removing the memory card from the camera and plugging it into a card reader (either built-in to the computer or connected via USB or FireWire). This is likely to be faster t ... Canon Rebel XT / EOS 350D Digital Camera
Blank LCD Hi! I have a Sony Cyber-shot digital camera, DSC-S40 model. I've been using it for two years now. Some months ago I couldn't get a picture from the LCD. It just went white. I can't see a thing. When I shoot the flash goes on and I can also hear the sound that it's capturing some image, but the LCD is still white. It can easily switch ON and OFF. I've even recharged and changed the batteries. It's festive season and I need to capture some memories with my Sony camera. I have misplaced m

South Bend Voices Behind Battle For Gay Civil Rights
The South Bend Tribune's Jamie Loo takes a look today at several of the voices behind the push in South Bend to enact a gay civil rights ordinance. She talks to real folks who've faced discrimination in South Bend because of their sexual orientation and who believe passage of the proposed law will make a difference in their lives. The stories are based on a study conducted by South Bend Equality.

Thanks to everyone for their ideas and opinions on what colors to use. We are very pleased with the result. Or at least I am, I don't know if hubby cares too much one way or the other as long as I'm happy. =)
Here's a reminder of the before with the faded shutters, dated neon green house numbers, overgrown bushes(there are windows back there!) and peeling door and garage paint.
And the spruced up after (pictures are a little off in color, I took them at 8:00 last night after I finished painting and I was losing daylight.):
The bushes got a nice trim although hubby is banned from trimming the burning bushes anymore. I trimmed the one of the left and he did the one on the right(poor bush.) They grow very fast though so hopefully next year it will look alright.
The trim around the garage was replaced and painted black. We took off the tops of the lights on each side of the garage door and removed the glass panels and lightbulb. I spray painted the tops of the lights and painted the rest of the lights without removing them from the house! It was tricky, but I taped plastic around the lights to cover the garage while I was spraying them with black Rustoleum. I only got a little bit of black paint on the brick.
I posted earlier about how I spray painted the shutters. Here's the post on that.
One of the biggest changes and easiest was putting up different house numbers. I bought the plaque at Home Depot for $25 and the numbers were $5.99 each I believe. The plaque looks so much more elegant the the cheapo green reflective plastic numbers we had before. I wish I had replaced them 4 years ago!
And finally the front door. I used Behr semi-gloss Sly Fox to paint the door and the sidelights. I first painted the trim around the door and windows black, but it looked awful. So I painted them one more time for the last time! (I had already primed them with one coat primer, then added two coats black, and now three coats of white paint.)
We bought a new storm door because ours was about to fall apart and didn't close right. This one has a screen that rolls up inside of the top of the door. So you can have it all glass like it is now or roll the screen down and have a door with the screen any size you want. We are hoping this well help keep the door from getting too hot since that may have cause our previous front door to warp in just two years. We're not really sure since steel doors aren't supposed to warp at all. A nice black antique iron style doormat(it's really rubber) adds the final touch. It was $9.99 from Garden Rige.
We added several more flowers to try and brighten up the front. Hubby was nice enough to plant those for me along with 6 other bushes along the sides and back of the house. I don't remember what the yellow flowers are, but the purplish bush is called "wine and roses." It has bright pink flowers. Everything looks a little scraggly right now, but they will fill in eventually.
So that's our first before and after and we will have many more to share as we continue on down the road of home improvement. A road that never ends.

Simple and accessible about the "Internet of things"
Today, the concept of "Internet of Things" has become one of the most popular topics for conversations around the world. This concept can have a significant impact on the all life of the person.
But, what is it and what impact will it have on us?
At the present time, there is much debate about the advisability and advantages of introducing this concept to optimize the work and life of a person. In fact, this is a complex concept, but we will not go into details, we will talk about the basic concepts.
Let's start with defining a few things.
Surely, each of you met the concept of broadband Internet access, which to date has gained considerable popularity. All over the world, devices are being developed that are equipped with a Wi-Fi module and sensors. The cost of implementing these technologies is gradually decreasing, and the popularity of smartphones among consumers is growing at a tremendous speed. All this creates a "perfect storm" for a network of connected devices.
Now about the Internet, what is it?
In simple words, this is a basic connection of devices and / or with each other to the Internet. Here you can relate anything: smartphones, coffee machines, washing machines, lamps, dishwashers, electric ovens, bakeries and much more.
In addition to the above, this applies to the components of the huge machines: jet engine, equipment for oil production, etc. That is, if the device has a toggle switch on / off, then, as a rule, it can become part of the Internet of things.
According to the analytical company Gartner, by 2020 to the global network of connected "things" will be connected about 26 billion devices. Kaa analysts believe that their number will exceed even 100 billion, and this is a large number of connections that include not only "things" but also people: the relationship between people and / or things.
What impact will this have on us?
In the future, we will come across a single rule: "Everything that can be linked together will be connected." But why should all connected things have a connection?
Already today, there are many examples where this relationship is of potential value to a person. For example:
You planned an important business meeting, and the car has access to the calendar and can plan the best route. If the situation on the road becomes more complicated, the car can send a message to your partner that you are a little late. You get up at the alarm bell at 6am, and then he sends a request to the coffee maker to start making coffee.
You use the device in the workplace; it will be able to tell you about your activity and productivity throughout the day, passing this information to other devices that were also used during business hours.
If we talk about a more extensive application, IoT can be applied to transport networks, creating a "smart city". This will help to optimize the work of drivers, transport, passengers, reduce fuel and electricity costs, understand and improve our work and life in general.
In general, we can say that this network of connections opens up unlimited opportunities for mankind and solves a huge number of tasks that we do not yet realize. Therefore it is not surprising that the topic remains relevant and is being studied to this day.
The biggest problem is security. The user must be sure that his information remains safe even if it is part of the network of connected devices.
Аre you interested in someone hacking a toaster and gaining access to the information that you put into the network? In this case, there is the issue of confidentiality and data exchange. In addition, companies will face the problem of data storage. All devices will reproduce huge amounts of information, so you need to determine how their analysis and storage will be performed.
What conclusion?
Discussion of this innovative technology has been going on for several years and will continue for a long time all over the world. People are trying to understand the impact that will have on us and what opportunities we will face when more and more things are merged into a single network.
Today, the only thing we can do is tell you what it is, what goals it pursues and what potential benefits for the work and life of mankind appear.

What lip-sync scandal? Beyoncé is literally on top of the world!
Moving past the brouhaha surrounding her inauguration performance while gearing up for her upcoming Super Bowl appearance, Beyoncé isn't slowing down one bit as she launches her new fragrance, Pulse NYC.
In the snazzy ad campaign for the perfume, which will mark her fifth fragrance, Queen Bey towers high above New York City and looks stunning as she rocks a mirror-bedecked strapless mini that easily gives the Empire State Building a run for its ogle-worthiness. (In a savvy stroke of design beauty, the bottle for the fragrance itself resembles a skyscraper.)
As if that weren't enough, Bey also released a behind-the-scenes video giving fans a peek at the photo shoot for the campaign as she explains how she zeroed in on the concept for the fragrance.
"I thought that now that I am a New Yorker and I've learned about how I can accomplish anything in this city, I felt it was an appropriate energy for the new fragrance," she says.
And with her upcoming Super Bowl performance already generating loads of buzz (rumors of a Destiny's Child reunion! Instagram pics!), we're betting Bey will be bringing her own explosive energy to New Orleans' Superdome on Sunday.
