MapR Analyst Day 2016
by bwoo | Dec 23, 2016 | Data & Information Platforms, Insight | 0 comments
On December 13, 2016, MapR held its inaugural analyst day at its headquarters in San Jose, CA. MapR provided a stage for each of its leaders to impress. For its first attempt at an analyst day, MapR was very successful, although, Neuralytix believes that there should have been opportunities (any opportunity!) for analysts to provide our feedback and input. Neuralytix feels that it was a missed opportunity for MapR.
The lineup of speakers included John Schroeder, the founder and executive Chairman of MapR; Matt Mills, its CEO; Anil Gadre, SVP of Products; and several other SVP/VP level speakers.
MapR shared its vision for 2017 and beyond, and offered perhaps the clearest definition of what is a "next gen app." Neuralytix believes that the term "next gen app" will be a catch-all phrase for workloads in 2017. Every infrastructure vendor will be articulating how it will address the nebulous "next gen app." Anil Gadre, SVP of Products at MapR used a visual (Figure 1) to explain this concept.
Figure 1: Defining the "next gen app" (MapR 2016)
In essence, Gadre explains that a "next gen app" is one that combines both analytics and operations. An example of this would be how one of the world's largest retailers actively seeks out lower prices for a product that is being purchased, and offers as a store credit, the difference between their price and a competitor's price. This operation incorporates the traditional transaction (the ecommerce/database operation) as well as immediate/dynamic analyses of the transaction itself.
Historically, these operations would have been linear in nature. Now, they happen simultaneously – resulting in what Gadre calls a "converged" application or the "next generation application."
Neuralytix believes that this clear definition of truly what the next generation of applications and computational operations looks like gives MapR a distinct advantage in two ways: first, it is best able to articulate to prospective and existing customers what the digital transformation looks like practically and operationally, and secondly, MapR is able to develop solutions that meet this goal without the distraction of going after every buzzword that will undoubtedly pop up during 2017 and beyond!
We believe that the addition of Dr. Crystal Valentine as MapR's vice president of technology strategy whose background include being a tenure-tracked professor of computer science at Amherst College, and a prolific author of academic publications in the areas of algorithms, high performance computing (HPC), and computational biology will equip MapR with the practical experience necessary to help its customers address the next generation business problems through the development of "next gen apps."
Overall, Neuralytix believes that MapR continues to be a leading Big Data player, and its 2017 focus on the "next gen app" will give it distinction over its competitors.
The challenge for MapR will be how it evolves user perception of it as purely as a Hadoop distribution vendor. The technical aspects of the vision and strategy is in place, as well as the personnel. The challenge will be for MapR's marketing leadership to clearly articulate MapR's business model and business vision alongside its technical strategy.

Its definetely an aahhh card. Really cute, love the papers.
Thanks for sharing the weather with us.....bit different to us all being water logged hehehee.
What a gorgeous card Sylvie, lovely backing papers and a such cute image.
You are so lucky having sunshine awful weather here at the moment.
Hi Sylvie, Gorgeous card! I love this sweet image and the papers are so pretty.


Edward Deravenel is the king of his company at last: a man who sought and won a business empire and the favors of many women. Now it is 1918, the war is over, an influenza epidemic is sweeping England, and Edward has a family and a business to protect. He must thread his way between his loyal brother, Richard, and the treacherous middle brother of the family, George. And the politics of inheritance are intense, as different family factions vie for the honor.
On a bitterly cold day in 1904, the Deravenel family's future changes forever. When Cecily Deravenel tells her 18-year-old son, Edward, of the death of his father, brother, and cousins in a fire, a part of him dies as well. Edward is comforted by his cousin Neville Watkins, who is suspicious of the deaths. They vow to seek the truth, avenge the deaths, and take control of the business empire usurped 60 years before.
Barbara Taylor Bradford delivers an evocative new novel of family secrets and betrayals that stretch from the streets of World War II Berlin to the winding alleys of Istanbul to the present day. Justine Nolan is a documentary film maker who lost her beloved grandmother a decade ago. Her own mother, Deborah, had always been distant and uninvolved. But when Justine inadvertently opens a letter addressed to her mother, she discovers that not only is her grandmother alive, but that Deborah has deliberately estranged the family from her for all these years.
Mallory Keswick can't imagine how her life could possibly be better. She has a wonderful, fulfilling marriage to a man who loves, supports, and nurtures her. She has a lovely home and beautiful twins who bring joy to her days, all of which she devotes herself to wholeheartedly. Mallory feels she has finally found the elusive sense of family that never quite rang true in her own childhood - until an exceptionally cruel act of violence tears apart the fabric of her happiness.
From the storytelling magic of Barbara Taylor Bradford comes a modern retelling of the drama and intrigue surrounding the 16th-century Queen Elizabeth.
Instead of England, the throne is the business empire of the Deravenels. And this Elizabeth is the most powerful managing director in its history. Surrounded by rumors and betrayal, Elizabeth Deravenel must steer her company clear of takeovers, and at the same time keep her heart from being broken as scandal surrounds the one man she's ever loved.
It's Barbara Taylor Bradford at her very best.
If you're looking for the Barbara Taylor Bradford of "A Woman of Substance", you won't find her here. "Being Elizabeth" doesn't have the same character development or passion as previous novels. It was just OK. I kept waiting for something exciting to happen, but it never did.
I loved the series but this was a little slower than book one. Over all I did NOT like the way murders kept happening but the story never finished with who or why. I hate that. I want to know who-done-It!!!
Really enjoyed first two books in the series. This third book seem to miss the boat. Redundancy in some places, gaps in others. Kind of hard to follow at times. In the performance it was hard to distinguish the difference between voices, especially Elizabeth and Robert.
Boring and slow. Barbara Taylor Bradford can do so much better than this!!

Il ghiacciaio Honnør è un ghiacciaio situato sulla costa del Principe Harald, nella Terra della Regina Maud, in Antartide. Il ghiacciaio scorre verso nord fino a gettarsi nella parte orientale della baia di Lützow-Holm, a nord dei picchi Byvågåsane.

Storia
L'area in cui si trova questa formazione fu descritta per la prima volta da parte della spedizione norvegese comandata da Lars Christensen e svoltasi nel 1936-37, che, nel luogo dove è presente ora il ghiacciaio, trovò anche una lingua di ghiaccio che si estendeva sul mare battezzandola Honnørbrygga (in norvegese: "il molo d'onore"). Successive ricognizioni effettuate durante una spedizione di ricerca antartica svoltasi nel periodo 1957-62, rivelarono però la lingua di ghiaccio si era spaccata, lasciando solamente il ghiacciaio, che la spedizione decise di battezzare con un nome che richiamasse quello della non più esistente lingua.

Tallaght's women's team kicked off their league campaign away to Trinity College. They got a great start when after five minutes, winger Sarah Obafemi was put into space and streaked away to score a great try under the posts. She repeated the dose five minutes later with another spectacular try from even further out. Young converted again and Tallaght led 14-0. Trinity came back into the game after that though, scoring two tries to make it 14-10 at half-time.
Tallaght came out strongly in the second half. Newcomers Shauna Power, Audrey Fullham and Leone Eugene were all playing their first competitive game of rugby but they acquitted themselves superbly, throwing themselves into tackles. Ciara McLaughlin was dangerous on the counter attack and skipper Catherine Murphy put in her usual big shift as a ball carrier.
Trinity's passing game was that big sharper though and they scored two more unconverted tries to lead 20-14. Tallaght weren't finished though and once again Sarah Obafemi was the danger. She was fed the ball from a scrum and she simply ran around the Trinity team to score her hat-trick try. Caoimhe Young struck the difficult conversion very well but it fell just agonisingly short.
Tallaght kept going to try to get the winning score but Trinity held on for the win. However it was an excellent display from Tallaght which promises a lot for the season to come.

Hello friends.. I know its a little late in the evening but before I call it a night I still wanted to share this weeks food haul. Every week I share what I get my family because I know many of you love food hauls as much as I do. If you want to see what I got for this upcoming week... enjoy the video below!
Have a good night.. a good morning and a good week!! I will be back tomorrow with my weekend in review. Stay tuned!


This 36 Inch LG Stainless Steel 24 Cubic Feet French Door Refrigerator has the largest capacity in its class. With a counter depth, this refrigerator can not only stand flush with your countertop to provide a seamless look, but its got the room to store all your family's favorite foods. This spacious refrigerator is equipped with LG's Smart Cooling System designed to maintain superior humidity and temperature level to help keep your food fresher, longer.
LG French Door Refrigerator with Smart Cooling Plus - 36 Inch Stainless Steel Counter Depth is rated 4.4 out of 5 by 748.
Rated 3 out of 5 by Cherrylk Average I don't like that the one drawer does not open unless both doors are open and the one door does not open wide because it hits the wall. Also the buttons to change the ice do not always respond well.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Bdelhoyo Great size We were looking for a counter-depth refrigerator for a long time, but didn't want to compromise too much on the space (we had a 26 cft side-by-side) before. This 24 cft model it's compact outside and fits perfectly in our kitchen, giving us more space to move around without compromising on the inside space. It's layout is great and we can't really tell the 2 cft difference. It is quiet and sleek.


Switzerland has extradited a French teenager who was trying to reach Syria for a second time since March, the federal department of justice said on Friday.
The 18-year-old was sent back to France on Thursday following a demand from French authorities, the department said.
He had been arrested on May 14th.
The Tribune de Genève newspaper said the teenager left Geneva on May 12th for Istanbul in a second attempt to go on to Syria.
The following day, France issued an international warrant for his arrest.
He was sent back to Switzerland on May 14th and arrested.
He had tried to travel to Syria in March but was stopped in Munich in Germany as he was still a minor.
The young man's mother told the Tribune de Genève that he had changed completely in the span of three months and became radicalized after the January jihadist attacks in Paris that killed 17 people.
"He said he could not practice his religion peacefully in France, he used words that were not his, he was under a spell," said his mother, a teacher from northern France.
The Paris attacks led to a series of anti-terrorism laws coming into effect in France aimed at stopping people from travelling out of the country if they are suspected of trying to join jihadist groups.
Some 1,400 people living in France have either joined the jihadist cause in Syria and Iraq or are planning to do so, Prime Minister Manuel Valls said in March.


It was around 11 years back when I used to eat meat. I always did feel guilty when I consumed meat but it did not stop me from eating. Then one day, I saw a truck filled with goats being taken to the slaughterhouse. It made me feel that the taste didn't hold any importance when compared to the lives of these animals. I decided never to consume meat, fish or eggs. I searched for animal rights and welfare organisations in the country and came across Animal Nepal. Here, I learnt how human greed was leading animals into torturous situations. It made me feel strongly that I should fight for their rights.
How does your idea of ethical animal treatment differ from what we see in practice today?
I can list a couple of examples to shed some light on my idea of ethical animal treatment. Pigs are castrated without anaesthesia in farms, hens are hung upside down on motorbikes with their heads hitting the concrete at every bump and corner, buffaloes are transported tied by their noses and tails until their anuses hang out, the habitat of wild animals have been encroached and they are being prosecuted for entering human settlements that originally belonged to them, thousands of endangered animals are trafficked to other countries, dogs are kicked, chained and mistreated in homes and on streets, elephants are captured and calves taken away from their mothers so that they can be 'trained' to be used for rides, cows are abandoned on the streets and left to die because they are of no use for the farmers and so on.
The ethical treatment of animals is far from reality at this point of time as I see it and while there has been some change in the behavioural pattern of people; we still have a long way to go.
How would you explain the bond you share with your dogs?I have four dogs who share our house and they are family. I would want to recite a recent incident with my dog Maya. She got very sick and I remember holding her head and telling her to hold on for at least her tenth birthday; she passed away the day after. I will never forget the way she looked at me then; that was her final gift for me.
Humans are the only species known to worship Gods in all their forms. Humans also are the only ones who fear Gods. This fear is the central factor that governs a person to kill another being for self-benefit. Animal sacrifice in Nepal has its roots in the Shaktism branch of worship. The followers of this path itself have had to go through the strictest of regimes and rituals and were granted Siddhis through centuries of tapas or in-depth meditation. These Siddhas could take lives of animals only because they could bring the dead animal back to life. We do not find Siddhas like such in today's time and those who practice the ritual of animal sacrifice carry it out intoxicated with ego or fear and incomplete knowledge regarding the essence of sacrifice. Sacrifice means to let go of one's animalistic traits like lust, greed, gluttony, pride, anger and illusion. It is written in our sacred texts that instead of sacrificing animals, vegetables like pumpkin and coconut can be offered to the goddess that leads to same results.
Slaughtering helpless animals in the name of Gods and Goddesses whether in the killing fields of Gadhimai or front porch of a house, does not justify humans of being wise. It is a sign of cowardice and an epitome of cruelty.
How can cruelty towards animals be controlled?
Zoos camouflaged as education centres are actually prisons for animals. In the case of our Central Zoo, everyone can see the animals being cramped in small cages; most animals suffer from depression and behavioural problems. Zoos are just there making a profit. They desensitise children by making them think that it is okay to keep animals behind cages. Zoos need to be closed down and sanctuaries and national reserves need to be expanded so that conservation of wild animals actually sees some fruition.

On a recent summer morning at Kennebunkport's Sandy Pines Campground, Ben and Meag Poirier's 31-foot-long teal bus stood out like a trail blaze in a forest filled with tidy white RVs. Inside, Meag, her long blonde hair loose, lounged on a sofa built in beneath narrow metal windows while Ben, olive-skinned with a mop of curly brown hair, leaned against a platform bed he constructed behind the rear wheels. Splayed out on the gleaming, reclaimed-maple floor, the couple's snoozing bull terrier mutt, Moose, occupied approximately one-sixth of the unaccounted-for space in their 165-square-foot motor home.
The stint at Sandy Pines was the latest on a cross-country tour the couple calls their "year of discovery," or as its known to their 12,000 Instagram followers, the "Wild Drive Life." Meag, 29, who previously worked for the Old Orchard Beach Chamber of Commerce, and Ben, 30, a former manager at Berwick's Longleaf Lumber, are taking time off to rethink their careers and personal goals and enjoy a grand adventure before (maybe someday) settling down. Their home base during this period of footloose exploration? They recognize the irony: It's a former prison bus.
In fact, the bus's white metal interior included three floor-to-ceiling cage dividers, a handful of tables and seats bolted to the floor, and bars over all the side windows. "It was very scary looking, I won't lie," Meag says. But with only 19,000 miles on the odometer and sporting a virtually rust-free exterior and top-of-the-line generator, the pen had potential. After watching the Massachusetts seller start it right up on a frigid February afternoon, the couple forked over $8,000 for it.
Converting the slammer into a "skoolie" — a term referring to a school bus turned tiny home that surely applies here — cost them another $15,000 and two years worth of weekends and evenings. They started by gutting and insulating the interior and painting it a warm cream. Ben lined the curved metal ceiling with layers of rigid and reflective insulation that captures 90 percent of the sun's radiant energy, keeping the bus comfortable without AC even on a 90-degree day. "I love when it's really hot out and I can touch the ceiling and say, 'Yep, it's still working,'" he says. Next, they painted the body bright turquoise — Meag's favorite color because, she says, "it makes you happy" — using YouTube videos by classic car enthusiasts as a guide. On the roof, three 300-watt solar panels power their dorm-size refrigerator, sconces crafted from plumbing pipes, and composting toilet fan, while helping to mitigate the eco-guilt engendered by driving a "beast" (Meag's endearment) that gets just 10 miles to the gallon.
Maple-covered boxes containing a composting toilet (left) and tub double as nightstands. The loo's top flips up and there's a pine door on the front. "We wanted an open concept and don't really miss having walls and doors," Meag says.
Before becoming a bus owner, "I had no idea how much these behemoths like to be babied," says Ben, who has learned to drive a steady 55 to 65 miles per hour on flat stretches of highway and accelerate slightly before heading up a hill to avoid damaging the engine.
The couple cooks on a single portable butane burner and eats at a 33-inch-wide fold-down maple table. Their stainless steel double sink is an upgrade from the micro one they initially installed. "We were like, 'we're minimalists, we've got this,'" Meag says of the bantam basin. "No, it was terrible. I'm used to having a good amount of space in the kitchen and I feel like we still do," she says, gesturing around the cheerful work area, enlivened with salvaged aqua beadboard paneling and graphic pastel wallpaper over the portal to the driver's and passenger's seats.

TSLA - Tesla Stock Price
Tesla (TSLA) lays off more employees, and hourly ones this time despite Elon Musk's comments
Fred Lambert | Jun 17 2022 - 5:41 am PT
Tesla has started another wave of layoffs, and this time it also includes hourly workers instead of just salaried employees like CEO Elon Musk claimed.
Earlier this month, we reported on Musk telling Tesla executives in an email that they need to cut 10% of the workforce and pause hiring due to having a "super bad feeling" about the economy.
Later, the CEO has decided to clarify the Tesla layoffs in an email to all employees. He claimed that the 10% reduction would be for "salaried headcount" due to Tesla becoming overstaffed following a long growth phase.
He even stated that "hourly headcount will increase."
However, we can now confirm that Tesla is also laying off hourly workers across its organization.
Sources familiar with the matter confirmed to Electrek that Tesla started another wave of layoffs yesterday that included many hourly employees in its sales and delivery teams across North America.
Surprisingly, the layoffs come amid Tesla's being in the middle of a difficult end-of-quarter delivery wave, which Musk himself warned employees about – saying that it will be "nutty."
After Gigafactory Shanghai was shut down for a significant part of the quarter, the automaker finds itself having to deliver more vehicles at the end of the quarter in order to compensate.
Electrek's Take
Well, that's hard to follow. The layoffs are due to a "bad feeling about the economy." No, it's about being overstaffed following a long hiring spree.
It will only affect salaried employees. Nope, never mind. They are letting go of hourly workers too now.
On top of it, that's all in the middle of an end-of-quarter delivery push that Musk tried to rally employees around.
And on top of that, Tesla is also pulling employees from its sales and delivery teams across North America to go work in service centers.
I've seen some strange times at Tesla, especially during the ends of quarters, but I think this one takes the cake.
At least, I don't feel too bad for the employees being laid off, since with the massive labor shortage we have currently, I think they will land on their feet fairly quickly.
Tesla is a transportation and energy company. It…

The Edge of Falling, by Rebecca Serle. One of the things I love most about Rebecca's novels is how detailed they are. People sometimes talk about "world-building" as though it's only pertinent to fantasy or sci-fi novels. Not so. It's those details that the author puts in—about inside jokes the protagonist and her friend have had since childhood, about what her mother's shoes always sound like on carpeting, about Thanksgiving traditions—that make it seem like this world is real, and has always existed, and will continue to exist long after we, the readers, have turned the last page. There are few authors who manage to convince me of their worlds' real existence as well as Rebecca Serle does. I would love to be able to write with that level of detail and naturalness.
Code Name Verity, by Elizabeth Wein. This is another one where I had no clue how the author did what she was doing, and I loved every minute of it. Like Blackout and All Clear, Code Name Verity is set in England during World War II, so maybe there's something about that setting that I particularly like? I don't know, mostly what I loved about this novel was not its history, but the complexity of its plot. I wish I could write plot the way Elizabeth Wein does in this book. I love the way it all fit together, the way it bucked so many assumptions and tropes of the YA world—and the friendship between the two main characters, of course. One thing that comes across in all of the stories I write is how much I value female friendships. They have been some of the most defining relationships of my life, as I think they are for many, many women, so I love seeing them explored in literature. I cried at the girls' friendship in Code Name Verity. I won't tell you at what point in the book because I don't want to spoil it for you, but if you've read it, you'll know.
Leila Sales grew up outside of Boston, Massachusetts. She graduated from the University of Chicago in 2006. Now she lives in Brooklyn, New York, and works in the mostly glamorous world of children's book publishing. Leila spends most of her time thinking about sleeping, kittens, dance parties, and stories that she wants to write. She is the author of MOSTLY GOOD GIRLS, PAST PERFECT, and THIS SONG WILL SAVE YOUR LIFE.
I am not familiar with the first two authors mentioned, but I LOVED Elizabeth Wein's Rose Under Fire, a companion book to Code Name Verity, which I have yet to read. You are right; Wein does things in ways no other contemporary authors are writing. Thanks for an interesting read. Your book looks pretty good as well. I will have to check it out.
I haven't heard of these authors/books, but I enjoyed reading your explanations of why you loved their writing. Great promotion, because it makes me want to read them!

Ingram named board's 2018 chair
The Mathews County Board of Supervisors, in its organizational meeting last Wednesday, elected Charles Ingram to serve as chairman during 2018 and G.C. Morrow to serve as vice chair.
Deputy county administrator Julie Kaylor was re-appointed to serve as clerk, with administrative assistant Susan Traner as deputy clerk.
Board members were assigned to serve on various committees, boards, and commissions, with a brief, good-natured stand-off when three supervisors expressed their desire to be appointed to the two slots available on the Middle Peninsula Planning District Commission.
Newcomers Amy Dubois and Pepper Love and first-term board member Morrow all wanted to represent the county in MPPDC seats that were left vacant by former supervisors Jack White, who declined to run for re-election, and O.J. Cole, who lost his bid for a fourth term. A coin toss was considered to make the determination, but Dubois eventually conceded, and Morrow and Love were appointed to the MPPDC.

Sikh teenager Tareen Lal has died in a car crash in Canada and a fundraiser has been launched to help the family
Tareen Lal's mother said she spoke to her shortly before the incident was reported. (submit)
Toronto:
A 17-year-old Sikh boy has died in a horrific accident after losing control of his car in British Columbia, Canada, according to media reports. City News Vancouver reported that Taryn Lal was returning home earlier this month when the car she was traveling in left the Fraser Highway in Langley, British Columbia.
According to the news station Global News Canada, the force of the accident on January 7 was such that it leveled fences and uprooted trees.
Lal's mother, Sarabjit Nanara Lal, told OMNI News that she spoke to him shortly before the incident was reported.
He told OMNI News: 'I hung up the phone and went to take a shower. When I got back, his dad was on the phone checking the car," according to the report.
He said apart from the heavy rain, nothing else was known about the possible cause of the accident.
Mr Lal's family told Global News he was a good student at Tamanawis High School in Surrey and was heavily involved in sport.
He started a GoFundMe fundraiser to help his family with funeral costs, calling him a "loving son, protective older brother, unforgettable friend and wonderful role model to those around him."

Proterra Secures Additional $30 Million in Financing to Meet Rapidly Growing Demand for EV Transit Technology
Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers, GM Ventures lead round, with reinvestment from top energy companies, venture capital firms

June 19, 2014 09:15 AM Eastern Daylight Time
GREENVILLE, S.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Battery-electric bus manufacturer Proterra Inc. has raised more than $30 million in additional funding to accelerate further deployment of its industry-leading zero-emission EV transit technology. Participation in this round of funding was bolstered by rapidly growing demand for electric vehicles in transit, as well as additional deployments by existing customers. Kleiner Perkins and GM Ventures led the financing, with significant growth funding from other existing investors.
Proterra leads the growing EV bus market and has battery-electric transit buses currently in use in cities across the country. The company's first generation product build slots are filled through the remainder of the year, and Proterra plans to introduce its new second generation product to the transit industry later this year.
"This funding is a vote of continued confidence by our investors who represent leaders in the automotive, energy and tech industries of the increasing momentum for the electrification of transit and Proterra EV buses' role in this effort," said Proterra CEO Ryan Popple. "EV transit is no longer an idea for the future; it is real and working daily in cities across the country. EV technology is an ideal fit for urban transit, and this funding will accelerate Proterra's ability to market a zero-emission, low-cost, clean option for urban mobility to more communities."
Another $10 million in funding is expected to close within the coming weeks, bringing the total for the financing to $40 million. Edison Energy, Inc. and Constellation Technology Ventures, the venture capital arm of Exelon, have re-invested, expressing enthusiasm for the technology's ability to allow the electrical grid to benefit consumers more broadly. Tao Invest, Vision Ridge Partners and Hennessey Capital also joined Kleiner Perkins and GM Ventures, with Mitsui & Co. Global Investment, Inc. and 88 Green Ventures set to follow by month's end. In conjunction with the investment closing, Michael Smith, Constellation vice president and head of Constellation Technology Ventures, will join Proterra's Board.
Speaking on behalf of the company's technology investors, Joby Pritzker of Tao Invest noted, "Tao is committed to clean technologies that will have a profound effect on the world around us. Proterra is a natural fit for this investment strategy. Through its continued growth, Proterra has led the charge in electrifying transit, enhancing sustainable mobility options in urban environments across the country."
Proterra is focused on purpose-built battery-electric vehicles for the transit industry. All elements of the vehicle, from the chassis to the charging system, are optimized and designed for one purpose—electric vehicle performance in a transit application. Its vehicle technology also incorporates state-of-the-art technologies like lightweight composites, a custom heavy-duty electric driveline and autonomous recharging. Proterra electric vehicles have logged over 400,000 zero-emission miles in 11 U.S. cities. This invaluable market experience with leading, early adopter transit agencies has been fully incorporated into Proterra's next generation electric vehicle—a 40-foot transit bus that will be the lightest, most efficient and highest passenger capacity coach in its class. By combining performance, efficiency and design, the next generation Proterra vehicle will have the lowest per passenger cost and environmental impact of any transit technology—electric, diesel, hybrid or natural gas.
"We are pleased to expand our investment in Proterra, which is playing a leading role in creating electric-powered transportation alternatives for mass transit systems," said Bert Valdman, senior vice president of strategic planning at Edison International, the parent company of Edison Energy. "Our company has been a pioneer in the research and development of electric transportation technologies. For decades, we have been committed to enhancing and promoting the benefits provided by a variety of electric vehicles. In a region like California, where air quality is so important to our quality of life, it is critical to accelerate the electrification of mass transit capabilities throughout our communities."
Proterra board member Michael Smith added, "Proterra is changing the future of mass transit by offering transit agencies and commercial customers a zero-emission option and a user experience that's far and away superior to anything that's on the road right now. Proterra's game-changing technology is more than just a fit with our core business as an energy provider; it has the potential to improve the quality of life for our customers in the communities we serve."

Many millions have been made in Hollywood by lampooning the acute effects of marijuana on memory but Israeli researchers suggest that they might one day be harnessed to prevent or treat post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

10 Memoirs Every 20-Something Woman Should Read
Katie Johnson December 17, 2014 6:00AM
Is Everyone Handing Out Without Me? by Mindy Kaling
Whether you're a fan of Mindy Kaling or not, you can at least admit you've thought at least once, "Is everyone hanging out without me?" The former The Office actor and star / creator of the Mindy Project gives a funny, honest depiction of her dorky childhood, her post-graduate early 20s trying to make it as an entertainer in New York, and the struggles and truths she's come to face even as a successful adult.
In this book, Kaling's not attempting to be wise or insightful, she's just being herself. Her voice comes across strong and her opinions read both relatable and refreshingly entertaining.
"You should know I disagree with a lot of traditional advice. For instance, they say the best revenge is living well. I say it's acid in the face -- who will love them now?"
Some Girls by Jillian Lauren
Okay, maybe being in a harem isn't something that every 20-something girl can relate to, but it sure does make for an interesting read. While Jillian Lauren may lead an interesting life as a former stripper/escort/D-film actress turned mother, author, and wife of Weezer bass guitarist Scott Shriner, her early days started out just like any typical middle class American girl.
Some Girls documents the story of one girl coming into her own, exploring sexuality, independence, and the world and she opts for less traditional paths in life, ultimately landing her in the harem of Prince Jefri Bolkiah of Brunei. Some Girls aims to challenge the ideas of gender roles and propriety, of what is right and what is expected for young women.
"I've always liked rooms where the party hasn't started yet. . . I love the feeling that anything could happen. After the party, when anything already has happened, there's usually the inevitable fact to face that anything wasn't all you'd hoped it to be."

MASAL (the Master Logical Entity) used PPT Transceivers rather than EM signals as his communication between modules. This allowed him to grow very large and eventually span the Earth. MASAL controlled all the robots, vehicles, automated equipment and so on. After MASAL invented the 24th chromosome and the Overmind arose, MASAL's PPT Transceivers allowed him to become fully integrated into the Overmind .
MASAL's ultimate plan was to transform humans into living robots. He watched and waited and grew impatient. He instigated a series of disagreements with the Overmind and eventually forced the two to split. This precipitated a war. MASAL turned the robots into deadly weapons and slaughtered a tremendous number of Vuduri. Everything under his control was also used as weapons including airships, ground vehicles and so on.
Eventually, the humans prevailed. MASAL had taken his last refuge (or so the Overmind thought) beneath the Flatirons just outside of Denver. The Vuduri constructed huge PPT cannons and blasted out the mountains. The resulting crater was so huge, it is easily seen from the Moon with the naked eye.
In the aftermath of the war, the Vuduri banned the use of robots forever. Not in space, not under the sea, nowhere on land or on other worlds. A new type of computing device, digital in nature, was invented. Because they were digital, machines like OMCOM could never be integrated into the Overmind so they were permitted limited control of vehicles, starships and so on. With that control, a fundamental law was established: no computer could ever have access to a Casimir Pump or PPT Transceiver again. The fear was that with the vastly increased range of PPT Transceivers, even digital computers could become unleashed, a crime called Tasanceti.
Unfortunately for Rome, the Stareater crisis caused her to have to violate the law and she later paid for this crime by being banished from the Earth. To make matters worse, MASAL wasn't even dead although Rei and Rome eventually corrected that problem.


I do a lot of 1 pagers but I always seem to feel a bit of guilt about them, like I'm wasting storage space.
I like to have lots of picture son a layout so (for the above reason)... but sometimes I just don't have a lot of pictures for the event I'm scrapping. If I do, I print the pictures smaller or in a collage so I can fit them on a page w/out it looking too cluttered.
What great stats! Mine varies, but when I scrap it's 99% two-pagers, the one-pages being a first page in a new album. I often have lots of photos, lots of grid designs, but I bet most of mine are in the 4-6 range.
That's interesting. I do tend to think of you as a multi-pic scrapbooker but I really love your one-photo pages. I was surprised, too, that you had done as many 1-photos layouts.
Your post made me go look at my own stats. I am not sure I have all my work posted, but according to my gallery at two peas in a bucket, I made 47 layouts in 2013. Of those, 31 were one photo pages and 16 were multi-pic. I was surprised by that. I mean, I knew I trended toward one photo pages, but not that much!
I loved reading this and found it so interesting! I do all one-page layouts now. Like you, I used to do all 2- page layouts and have gradually moved to doing all one pagers. I think I need to try a 2-pager again. Most of my layouts have only 1 photo, but some have 2 or three. I did do a few with blocked style where I used multi-photos.
How interesting that you didn't realize how many single page layouts you'd made! I wonder if you're gradually transitioning away from 2-page layouts the way I did (without realizing it).
I do multi-photo single-pagers. All of last year and moving forward...*fingers crossed* I only use single photos for altered projects that are displayed around the house or given as gifts. My focus is not to scrap as many photos as possible but to tell effective stories through the use of photos so that it would be fun to flip through the albums in the future.


A new year has just begun. I can imagine that we all have some new thoughts and plans for 2018. May your plans be reality and no longer dreams.
I hadn't posted anything lately. I'll go back and sum up 2017.
January - Vendor at Calwa Park as the graffiti artist repaint the wall.
May- Soul Food Festival at Bidwiz, downtown Fresno. I was a vendor.
My granddaughter is graduating from High School and was accepted to The Academy Of Arts College in San Francisco. She received a sports scholarship in Volleyball. Congratulations Kimiah!
June- Summer vacation starts right after school lets out this month.
Juneteenth Celebration at Gaston Middle School.
August - Barbecue Festival at Bidwiz, 2nd event. I was a vendor for this event. It was like a block party. Dancing, eating, music, etc.
My nephew got married and I donated the wedding cake.
September - Family trip to San Francisco to move my granddaugther into the dorms.
October - Big Fresno Fair. I entered and won 1st place and "best of the show" in cake decorating. I have won for 3 years straight.
November- Seafood Festival at Bidwiz. I was a returning vendor for this event. Another success. All of the festivals were put on by Adrian Harris, CEO of Black Wall Street and Vibe.
Everyone got together to give thanks as we celebrated Thanksgiving.
December - I participated in smaller vendor events thoughout the year.
The reason for the season, "Christmas". Celebrating the birth of our Messiah, Jesus Christ!
I may have forgotten somethings, but the blessing of memories is enjoying them when they return.
Today my message is about my granddaughter. She is a senior at Bullard High School in Fresno, California and her volleyball school season has come to an end. She has been blessed to play club volleyball for 6 seasons, starting at age 12.
My granddaughter's disavantage is that she grew up in a single parent home with 3 other sibblings and her mom (my daughter). Being active in club volleyball isn't cheap. The expenses were a constant challenge, but God has continously made a way.
My granddaughter, Kimiah wishes to continue to play as she attends college, but has yet to be recruited. She has been invited to play for one of the top clubs in California that is also ranked 41st club in the Nation, Rage Volleyball Club. Playing for a top ranking club will give her great exposure.
Rage Volleyball Club is a 501(c)(3) and any contributions made towards her club dues are tax deductible.
 I had a variety of items for your sweet desires.
Below are some of the other vendors that were there also.
Are you baking for the holidays?
That maybe a questions that some are still throwing back and forth. It seems like Thanksgiving has come some quickly, especially since the weather hasn't changed that much.
Well, if you haven't decided yet I am baking. I will be accepting orders until Friday November 19. If you need Sweet Potatoe Pies, I can help you out. I am selling the 8" pies for $10.
I will also be baking cakes like: 7-up pound cake, Lemon pound cake. Call me for your orders.
I competed in two categories that had live judging.
In the custard pie division I entered my Sweet Potatoe Pie with homemade pie crust. The crust recipe was given to me by Bobbie Jean. I won second place.
The second live judging was in the cake contest. I entered my Layered Checkboard Cake. I won first place in the Chocolate Cake Division.
In the live judging division, the items are judged during the fair in front of spectators.
The rest of my items were judged before the opening of the fair. This is called "Blind Judging". The results are not revealed until opening day. I listed the items below and how they placed.
I competed in six categories. Next to the categories, I listed my item entered. Four of the six items did not place within the range of 1st, 2nd or 3rd place. These categories are listed below.
1. Made with nuts.....Chocolate chip Walnut Pie.
2. Butter Cakes.....Whipped Cherry Buttercream 7up Cake aka "Shirley Temple Cake".
3. Tricks with mix.....Chocolate chip Banana Nut Bread.
6. Themed Decorated Cakes.....Boxed Wine Bottle (1st place and Judge's choice).
I have won 1st in the "Cake Decorating Themed Division" at The Big Fresno Fair two years in a row. October 2015 in addition to winning, I received a ribbon for "Best of The Show". October 2016 I also received a second ribbon for "Judge's Choice".
(My first year winning 5 lbs. of Danish Creamery Butter for my "Shirley Temple Cake" which won 4th place in the Butter Division.
Welcome to Nitaann's Edible Creations.
decorated cake valued at $65 to my 1000 likes recipient.
Well the Big Fresno Fair has come and gone. I hope you had a chance to get out and support our local talented community. You would have seen a variety of things.
I competed in several categories. I entered the Gingerbread House Decorating Contest with my grandson Erik. Everyone who entered was awarded a 1st place ribbon, $15 gift certificate from "Creative Cakes and More".

The first day of the Ryder Cup nearly turned drama when, in the morning, the American Brooks Koepka injured a spectator in the face with his ball in one of the first matches of the competition. We can be the winner of the US Open and the PGA Championship this year, but totally miss the most famous hole in the history of the Albatross, the Ryder Cup since Friday. Brooks Koepka would have gone well this fright at the start of No. 6, where his drive completely missed the American. To fail clearly to the left of the fairway … and especially in a crowd already very important in the early hours of this opening day (we expect nearly 300 000 spectators this weekend, in Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines). She took the ball in the eye … I hope she will not lose it Brooks Koepka (Team USA) A spectator received Koepka's ball a priori at the level of the face, without losing consciousness, according to the information that could filter, before being evacuated. Canal + even evoked a broken nose … His involuntary aggressor, then associated with Tony Finau, left the party that opposed the English Justin Rose and the Spaniard Jon Rahm to immediately inquire about the state of the unhappy girl Her shocked reaction is echoed by the Anglo-Saxon media: "When I arrived, I saw a lot of blood, she took the bullet in the eye … I hope she will not lose it. I apologized, I wanted to hide, it's a really unpleasant feeling, "he was happy to recognize, before finding yet its concentration and winning in this first part of" four balls "between Europeans and Americans.

Even though the summer season is traditionally a slower time for the real estate market all over the country, it's safe to say the summer of 2016 was significantly more competitive than just about any summer in recent memory.
But now that August is coming to a close and the busy fall season is right around the corner, we thought now might be a good time to provide Duluth area home buyers and sellers with a quick market update.
As of today, the median list price for a home in Duluth, MN is $175,000, which comes out to approximately $102 a square foot. Although still higher than much of what we saw in 2015, that's still the lowest median list price for a home in Duluth since January of this year when it settled at $174,000.

Hundreds of thousands of onlookers are expected to flock to the city's lakefront this week to get a glimpse of the the 9 tall ships that will be participating in this year's Parade of Sail. As part of the Tall Ships Duluth festival, this spectacular and highly-coordinated event is one of the more unique happenings that will take place in Duluth in 2016, and it's something that most of us have been looking forward to all summer.


Baba Ramdev to buy NDTV?
India, June 5 -- NDTV is in preliminary talks with some parties to sell the TV channel. Interestingly, Baba Ramdev, is among the interested parties and he recently had a preliminary discussion with some stakeholders regarding the acquisition of the channel. In the fiscal year 2016-17, NDTV's revenues dropped from Rs 396.03 crore to Rs 368.32 crore during the first three quarters. For more information, please visit here -- https://nextbigwhat.com/t/baba-ramdev-to-buy-ndtv/3788 Published by HT Digital Content Services with permission from NextBigWhat.com.


As well as our long-established band with Jonathan and Angela, we have been ringing with the "Edinburgh crossover band" involving Mike and Ian. We are trying to get into a routine of a monthly peal attempt. Towards the end of last year we scored a peal of Yorkshire, and in January we rang one of Cambridge. The next step is Lincolnshire in February, so I started giving some thought to compositions.
There are two classic compositions by William Barton, and another by Simon Humphrey.
58 CRUs. 6 the extent in 6ths.
84 CRUs. Tittums. For 5152 omit [ss] in one part.
Three-part compositions are good, but for handbells it's nice to have 5-6 fixed at the part end instead of 2-3. The William Barton compositions can be rotated to get this effect, but not the Simon Humphrey composition.
The rotated versions are better for CRUs, if you like that sort of thing, as well as having a part end that's preferable for handbells. The rotations also make it clearer that the two compositions differ only in the position of a block of three bobs: wrongs or homes. The second version is listed in the collection of handbell compositions at www.ringing.info. While checking with a computer search, I found another composition, which isn't in the collection at www.ringing.org; I don't know whether it has been published anywhere else. It has the same musical properties as the other two (99 runs of four or more bells at the front and back, as well as the CRUs) but is a little more complicated, so it doesn't have much to recommend it.

Debt-ridden Ghana plans to buy oil with gold instead of dollars, as foreign currency reserves dwindle to an alarming low
Bopaak novembre 25, 2022 2 min read
Source: markets.businessinsider.com
Ghana's government is planning to use gold to pay for oil instead of shelling out US dollars.
The move is expected to reduce the "persistent depreciation" of the cedi, the Ghanaian currency.
As of end-September, Ghana's forex reserves were just enough to cover 3 months worth of imports.
Ghana's government is planning to go back to a barter system of trade.
In order to protect the country's fast-dwindling foreign currency reserves, Ghana wants to pay for oil with gold instead of shelling out precious US dollars, Mahamudu Bawumia, the country's vice president said Thursday.
Ghana's gross international reserves have fallen by about one-third ? from $9.7 billion at the end of 2021 to around $6.6 billion at the end of September 2022, according to official data.
The reserves will cover just 2.9 months of the country's goods and services imports ? short of the government's target of covering three-and-a-half-months worth of imports for 2022, according to a copy of the country's budget speech delivered by finance minister Ken Ofori-Atta on Thursday.
The Ghanaian government is looking to implement the "new policy regime" of using gold to buy oil products in the first quarter of 2023, in order to counter inflation due to the depreciation of the cedi, Ghana's currency. The cedi has fallen against the US dollars because there is strong demand for the greenback from oil importers, Bawumia explained in a Facebook post on Thursday.
By not using the US dollar in the country's oil trade, the move is expected to reduce the "persistent depreciation" of the cedi, because sellers of fuel in the country will no longer have to take the dollar-cedi exchange rate into account when pricing their products, he added. Readmore here

RamScope
Development: tools
System: enhancements
Farpoint Software
Absolute Physical Memory Viewer. Show any part of OS/2 memory. RamScope is a debugging tool written for the OS/2 Presentation Manager.
Program is distributed as ZIP package: download to temporary directory and unpack to destination folder. See below for download link(s).
RamScope v. 2.0 (4/12/1989, Farpoint Software) Readme/What's new
---------------------------------------------------- * * * A NOTE OF CAUTION CONCERNING PHYSMEM.SYS * * * ---------------------------------------------------- The device driver PHYSMEM.SYS provided with this package is, in one sense, a "gateway" by which the normal memory protection mechanisms used by OS/2 can be bypassed. The selectors provided by version 1.11 of PHYSMEM correspond to descriptors in the calling program's LDT marked as "readable" and "executable" but not "writable". The access types for the selectors created with the PhysToUVirt call (see PHYSMEM.ASM) must be one of two possible combinations: read/write or read/execute. This is determined by the value passed to PhysToUVirt in the DH register (0=r/w, 1=r/e). Read/execute is the one used here, since it is the safer of the two (RamScope does not write to the segment thus obtained). There is no method provided for verifying the identity of the program which calls the PHYSMEM device driver; it could be called by any program which "knows" of its existence. With the current version, a "badly behaved" program could not write anywhere in memory, but it would be possible for it to perform a far call or jump to anywhere, thus precipitating a probable system crash. It is of course possible to modify PHYSMEM.ASM and re-assemble it to produce a version which returns selectors to read/write segments. A driver thus created would, as before, be accessible to all programs in the system, giving "badly behaved" programs a means to trash anything in memory, including modifying other programs' code segments, system descriptor tables, etc. This is not to say that PHYSMEM will cause problems, since it is rather unlikely that any programs will "accidentally" open a device by this name and then make the specific IOCtl calls required to use it. However, a deliberately malicious program, OR a legitimate one under development which uses PHYSMEM, could wreak havoc. All this is nothing new, since any program running in real mode in the DOS compatibility box could do this also, but it is best that users of PHYSMEM be aware of this different type of "loophole" in the memory protection. ╔═════════════════════════════════════════════════╗ ║ ║ ║ >>> R A M S C O P E <<< ║ ║ Absolute Physical Memory Viewer ║ ║ Copyright (c) 1988, 1989 Farpoint Software ║ ║ Version 2.0 ║ ║ ------------------------------------- ║ ║ ║ ║ A debugging tool ║ ║ for the OS/2 Presentation Manager ║ ║ ║ ╚═════════════════════════════════════════════════╝ Introduction ------------ RamScope is a debugging tool written specifically for the OS/2 Presentation Manager. Its purpose is to allow you to do something that is not normally allowed for a "user" (i.e. ring 2 or ring 3) program: You can roam freely through all of the system's physical memory space without regard for segment limits, access privilege, or descriptor tables. There are three active areas of the RamScope display: The left side of the window shows the starting address in hex of each line of data. These addresses are always expressed as true physical memory locations. The middle section of the window shows sixteen lines of sixteen bytes each in hex format. The right-hand section of the window shows the same data area in character format rather than hex. The displayed memory area is "live"; i.e. the memory block is re-read and the display is updated about six times per second. Therefore, if an area of memory is actively changing, this activity can be visually monitored. The updating of the display can be stopped (frozen) with a single-keystroke command. It is possible to run multiple copies of RamScope simultaneously in order to monitor multiple separate areas of memory. Operating Instructions ---------------------- All the display manipulation commands are accessible both with the mouse and as "accelerator" keys. Each command will be described individually. Specify address <Ctrl-A>: This produces a dialog box into which the desired starting address of the display area may be entered. As always, the address must be in hex and must be expressed as a physical address. Scan Forward <Ctrl-F>: This causes the start address of the displayed memory area to be increased by 10 hex at each update interval (about 6 Hz), allowing a "hands-off" visual search through memory. The scan can be stopped with <F8> or <F9>. Scan Backward <Ctrl-B>: Same as Scan Forward, except that 10 hex is subtracted from the starting address each update interval. ┌─ │Subtract 1000 hex <Home>: │ Add 1000 hex <End>: │Subtract 100 hex <PgUp>: │ Add 100 hex <PgDn>: │Subtract 10 hex <Up-arrow>: │ Add 10 hex <Dn-arrow>: │Subtract 1 <Left-arrow>: │ Add 1 <Right-arrow>: └─ All of these perform the indicated action on the starting address of the displayed memory area. Find Global Descriptor Table <Ctrl-G>: Sets the display start address to the address of the system's global descriptor table. This is the master descriptor table used by the system kernel. User programs always operate through their individual Local Descriptor Tables, not the GDT. Find Interrupt Descriptor Table <Ctrl-I>: Sets the display start address to the address of the system hardware interrupt descriptor table. All hardware and software interrupts are vectored through this table. Find Text String <Ctrl-T>: Produces a dialog box into which may be entered: a text string to be searched for, a starting memory address, and an ending memory address. The specified area is searched for an exact match to the text string. If a match is found, then the starting address for the display area is set to the address of the matching string. Find Hex Byte Sequence <Ctrl-H>: This works the same way as "Find Text String", except that the data to be searched for is entered in hex. Find Next Text String <Ctrl-N>: Finds the text string previously specified, with the search starting at the currently displayed address + 1. Find Next Hex Byte Sequence <Ctrl-X>: Finds the hex sequence previously specified, with the search starting at the currently displayed address + 1. Stop Scan <F8>: Stops the auto-incrementing or auto-decrementing started by one of the "Scan" commands. The display continues to refresh at 6 Hz. Freeze <F9>: Stops the display refresh process. If the content of the memory area changes, this will NOT be reflected in the display. It will continue to show conditions present at the time <F9> was pressed. If a scan was in progress, it will be stopped. UnFreeze <F10>: Restores the display refresh, previously stopped by "Freeze". About <F1>: Produces a dialog box containing a short description of RamScope and a copyright notice. Changes in Version 1.1 ----------------------------- The "find next" functions and pull-down menu shadow boxes (just to be fancy). The search routine has been modified to reduce the probability of falsing while searching through areas of non-existant memory (floating bus). Changes in Version 2.0: ----------------------- This version runs correctly under the IBM release of OS/2 version 1.1 (the previous versions of RamScope ran only under Microsoft's SDK 1.05). A change in the message sequence sent to submenus required a more clunky (and slow) method of creating those cute shadow boxes, so they have been removed. Installation ------------ In order to do its magic, RamScope needs its own device driver so that privilege level zero code can be executed. This device driver is supplied as PHYSMEM.SYS. Installation of the device driver proceeds as follows: (1) Copy the file PHYSMEM.SYS into the root directory of the boot (C:) drive. (2) Edit CONFIG.SYS in the root directory. Insert the following line anywhere in the file: DEVICE=C:\PHYSMEM.SYS (3) Reboot the system. PHYSMEM won't bother anything else in the system, and it only uses 1k. To start RamScope, either type its name at an OS/2 command line prompt, or install it as an entry in the Program Starter. It takes no command line parameters. The working directory is irrelevant. The program type is "Presentation Manager", not "Other". Since the default configuration of OS/2 allows memory segments to be moved, discarded, and swapped to disk whenever the kernel code deems appropriate, using RamScope could be a little tricky under some conditions. The data segment you were watching could unexpectedly disappear from memory or move to another location. To prevent this, change the MEMMAN line in CONFIG.SYS from "MEMMAN=SWAP,MOVE" to "MEMMAN=NOSWAP,NOMOVE". Normally, this is unnecessary unless you are either short on memory or run a lot of other programs while debugging. Be sure to restore CONFIG.SYS to its normal state when not debugging. PHYSMEM source code ------------------- The complete source code to the PHYSMEM device driver is included in this package as an example of a simple non-interrupt device driver. PHYSMEM does not in fact drive a device at all, but rather is a means by which a ring 3 program can call ring zero code. Examples of how to call the driver are shown in the comment block at the beginning of PHYSMEM.ASM. OS/2 Bug Note: -------------- Any "accelerator" keys which are combinations of the control key and a letter key (such as ^A to set the address) will not work if Caps Lock is in effect. Just be sure to turn off Caps Lock if you are using keyboard commands. The function keys F1 thru F12 are not affected. SHAREWARE NOTICE ---------------- Please remember that RamScope is Shareware, not free software. It costs $35. For this you get: A version that doesn't start up with the About Box, support via telephone or CompuServe, a few other small-but-useful OS/2 programs, and free updates whenever they become available. If you're going to use this program, please pay for it. In any event, give copies of the unregistered version to all takers. Thanks for your support. Shareware publishers would starve without it.

The Respironics Nuance headgear is the replacement headgear only for the Respironics Nuance and Nuance Pro Nasal Pillow Mask. The mask frame is NOT included. This replacement headgear offers a non-slip option for better support and less frustration with little need for constant adjustments. It fits a little higher on the back of the head and eliminates irritation and soreness.
Check your headgear for distinguishing characteristics. The Nuance Headgear is to be used with the fabric frame. The back strap is pale blue in color. There is no print or wording on the single Velcro tab on the headgear. It CANNOT be worn with the Nuance Pro mask.
The Nuance Pro Headgear is to be used with the Nuance Pro with the clear silicone frame that houses the blue gel pads. The back strap is gray in color. This headgear includes three Velcro tabs with the name of the mask printed on it. Nuance Pro is easy to read on the headgear tabs. This headgear CANNOT be worn with the Nuance Mask.
Please make your selection based on the mask you currently use.
Gel pads fell off both sides after 2 months. Velcro came off of cloth head gear after 3 months. Overall though, the most comfortable headgear yet.

Q: Deleting same records from same table causes deadlock We have an table which stores the login information of a company (company will have multiple users), and deletes all the records of the company (all records of that company) when ANY user of that company logins.
we are receiving the deadlock for the above case, cannot change from application side.
There is no Gap Lock happening, and both delete's are using the proper index.    As it's going for index scan, reading of data should be in sequential order. If it's an sequential order, then the second statement should wait for acquiring lock, but it's causing Deadlock.
