I was working on my shabby chic dollhouse when I was interrupted by inspiration!
I don't know where this one came from! I just had this incredible need to make a flea market booth.
I put in a battery operated crystal chandelier.
I put the battery under some moss and the switch is under the vine.
I painted a whole bunch of rose paintings and dress paintings.
I made the beehive out of air dry clay. The little wheelbarrow has moss, flowers and strawberries that I made out air dry clay too.
The stall has fabric, flowers, bobbins with string. All the partitioned spaces are lined with red and white checkered fabric. Except the middle one. It has sky blue with white polka dots.
I made this rug on a piece of tarp plastic(like a shower curtain liner material). I chose pinks and creams, red dots and roses for super whimsy!
I made this piece from scratch out of left over wood from different dollhouse projects. I think it looks totally happy!
ooohhhhh.... what wonderful work! i like all in this shop, every little detail!!!!!!!
Another work of art, Caroline! Everything is so colourful, fun to look at, and just perfect.
I WANT TO SHOP THERE!!!! I think I might clean them out if I did stop by for a browse! Everything looks beautiful! Great work as usual!
Oh... la lá! la inspiración!
Ohhh Caroline you had a very beautiful inspiring moment lol!!!
I love the market stand that you made, it is sooooo sweet and lovely.
What a cute interruption!! as always detailed to perfection, I love it!!
Oh I love it!!! Everything looks so fun and colourful and all your beautiful rose paintings look so amazing!!
Wauw...al those little details...so great to see!!
Wow! It's beautiful, Caroline! I loved it.
Fabulous! I like everything in the shop. You're a talented artist!
Wow Wow Caroline Amazing market stall its so sweet and pretty. I love it. So many beautiful details to look at.Wonderful piece of art.
Tu inspiracion y tu arte hace que hagas estas autenticas maravillas.
Inspiration!! How delightful work!! I love it!
Your flea market shop is absolutely adorable and I would love shopping there. So cute!
we'll see, but hope so cause we could sure use it.
"interrupted by inspiration ", That shows your a real artist!!
How cute is this one? OMGoodness! Love it, perfection once again. Can't wait to see your next little house.
Working on my second house, gonna be a kichen. Decided to take all my kitchen minis and put them in one house/room. Silly to have them scattered, I mean, "How many mini kitchens do you need"? lol So, when life lets me gets back to mini working, I'll resume creating/playing/working!
Lovely work! It is amazing to see all that tiny flowers and all the decoration of your flea market.
That is so darling! I wish I got interrupted by inspiration like that!!!
Thank you for the well wishes on our move, slowly but surely the packing is getting done...I've moved many times but I think this one has been the most exhausting!
oh mu gosh! perfect!!! Your work is a gift!

Q: How does typeid work and how do objects store class information? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Typeid
This seems to be a mystery to me: how does a compiler stores information about the type of an object ? Basically an empty class, once instantiated, has not a zero size in memory.

A: Imagine every class as if it has this virtual method, but only if it already has one other virtual, and one object is created for each type:
extern std::type_info __Example_info;
struct Example {
  virtual std::type_info const& __typeid() const {
    return __Example_info;
  }
};
// "__" used to create reserved names in this pseudo-implementation

Then imagine any use of typeid on an object, typeid(obj), becomes obj.__typeid().  Use on pointers similarly becomes pointer->__typeid().  Except for use on null pointers (which throws bad_typeid), the pointer case is identical to the non-pointer case after dereferencing, and I won't mention it further.  When applied directly on a type, imagine that the compiler inserts a reference directly to the required object: typeid(Example) becomes __Example_info.
If a class does not have RTTI (i.e. it has no virtuals; e.g. NoRTTI below), then imagine it with an identical __typeid method that is not virtual.  This allows the same transformation into method calls as above, relying on virtual or non-virtual dispatch of those methods, as appropriate; it also allows some virtual method calls to be transformed into non-virtual dispatch, as can be performed for any virtual method.
struct NoRTTI {};  // a hierarchy can mix RTTI and no-RTTI, just as use of
                   // virtual methods can be in a derived class even if the base
                   // doesn't contain any
struct A : NoRTTI { virtual ~A(); };  // one virtual required for RTTI
struct B : A {};  // ~B is virtual through inheritance

void typeid_with_rtti(A &a, B &b) {
  typeid(a); typeid(b);
  A local_a;  // no RTTI required: typeid(local_a);
  B local_b;  // no RTTI required: typeid(local_b);

  A &ref = local_b;
  // no RTTI required, if the compiler is smart enough: typeid(ref)
}

Here, typeid must use RTTI for both parameters (B could be a base class for a later type), but does not need RTTI for either local variable because the dynamic type (or "runtime type") is absolutely known.  This matches, not coincidentally, how virtual calls can avoid virtual dispatch.
struct StillNoRTTI : NoRTTI {};

void typeid_without_rtti(NoRTTI &obj) {
  typeid(obj);
  StillNoRTTI derived; typeid(derived);
  NoRTTI &ref = derived; typeid(ref);

  // typeid on types never uses RTTI:
  typeid(A); typeid(B); typeid(NoRTTI); typeid(StillNoRTTI);
}

Here, use on either obj or ref will correspond to NoRTTI!  This is true even though the former may be of a derived class (obj could really be an instance of A or B) and even though ref is definitely of a derived class.  All of the other uses (the last line of the function) will also be resolved statically.
Note that in these example functions, each typeid uses RTTI or not as the function name implies.  (Hence the commented-out uses in with_rtti.)

A: How it is stored is implementation-defined. There are many completely different ways to do it.
However, for non-polymorphic types nothing needs to be stored. For non-polymorphic types typeid returns information about the static type of the expression, i.e. its compile-time type. The type is always known at compile-time, so there's no need to associate any additional information with specific objects (just like for sizeof to work you don't really need to store the object size anywhere). "An empty object" that you mention in your question would be an object of non-polymorphic type, so there's no need to store anything in it and there's no problem with it having zero size. (Meanwhile, polymorphic objects are never really "empty" and never have "zero size in memory".)
For polymorphic types typeid does indeed return the information about the dynamic type of the expression, i.e. about its run-time type. To implement this something has to be stored inside the actual object at run-time. As I said above, different compilers implement it differently. In MSVC++, for one example, the VMT pointer stored in each polymorphic object points to a data structure that contains the so called RTTI - run-time type information about the object - in addition to the actual VMT.
The fact that you mention zero size objects in your question probably indicates that you have some misconceptions about what typeid can and cannot do. Remember, again, typeid is capable of determining the actual (i.e. dynamic) type of the object for polymorphic types only. For non-polymorphic types typeid cannot determine the actual type of the object and reverts to primitive compile-time functionality.

A: Even when you do not use type information, an empty class will not have zero bytes, it always has something, if I remember correct the standard demands that.
I believe the typeid is implemented similar to a vtable pointer, the object will have a "hidden" pointer to its typeid.

A: There are several questions in your one question.
In C++ objects is something that occupies memory. If it does not occupy any memory - it is not an object (although base class sub-object can occupy no space). So, an object has to occupy at least 1 byte.
A compiler does not store any type information unless your class has a virtual function. In that case a pointer to type information is often stored at a negative offset in the virtual function table. Note that the standard does not mention any virtual tables or type information format so it is purely an implementation detail.

Ah, what a timely post! Right when the sun is raging like never before, we get to talk about something that offers absolute respite.
Even the picture of a watermelon in my mind cools me down. This fruit needs no introduction, does it? It has been on our list of favorites since we were kids, and it will continue to remain, not just because it helps you combat the scorching heat, but also because of what it can do to us.
having a slice of watermelon every day can halt the accumulation of bad cholesterol, thereby preventing heart disease. Regular consumption of watermelon has also been linked to fewer fatty deposits inside the blood vessels.
Watermelon is 90% water, making it one of the best sources of hydration. It is far better than alcohol or caffeine in terms of being a diuretic. As it is a natural source, it increases urination without stressing the kidneys.
Lycopene is the pigment that renders watermelons their characteristic red color, and since it is a powerful antioxidant, it prevents the onset of certain cancers.
A two-cup serving of watermelon contains about 20 milligrams of lycopene, which battles free radicals and protects against numerous types of cancer. It has also been found useful in the treatment of HPV infection, which might otherwise lead to uterine cancer.
If your sore muscles trouble you after a workout, watermelon might hold the key. The fruit is packed with electrolytes and the amino acid citrulline, which help soothe sore muscles after a heavy workout. Citrulline has been found to accelerate the process of lactic acid removal, thereby relieving muscle soreness.
Watermelon, as we have seen, contains huge amounts of water, and hence can aid digestion. It also contains fiber, thus promoting digestion and preventing constipation.
Lycopene has been suggested as a potential treatment for eye disorders like macular degeneration.
Antioxidants are essential for eye health as they offer protection against free radicals. The effect of free radicals can be scary – they might lead to the deterioration of the eye lens, and can even cause blindness. Lycopene, being a potent antioxidant, prevents this.
Hail lycopene, again! Being one of the key antioxidants, lycopene helps with the body's reaction to cold and flu. And what's more interesting is this antioxidant has been found to reduce asthma flare-ups in children (23).
Watermelon also allows people who have asthma to breathe properly, without them having to take each breath in panic.
Watermelon is a good source of vitamin C, the nutrient that is essential for collagen synthesis. Collagen keeps your skin supple and strengthens your hair.
Lycopene and beta-carotene can protect the skin against sunburn. Beta-carotene is also known to prevent certain skin conditions like psoriasis and vitiligo.
The vitamin A in watermelon is another important nutrient that contributes to skin health – it repairs and creates new skin cells. Without the nutrient, your skin would appear dull and flaky.
One of the best watermelon health benefits is that it aids in healthy weight loss too. Yes, given its high water content, watermelon can fill you up for fewer calories. Water has also been found to speed up metabolism and flush out toxins and fats, which eventually might contribute to weight loss.
The vitamin C in watermelon keeps the capillaries and gums healthy. The deficiency of vitamin C can cause bleeding gums and gingivitis (inflammation of the gums), and watermelon can prevent these conditions.
The vitamin C in watermelon can also kill the bacteria in the mouth that might otherwise lead to gum disease and other gum infections.

Dominick A. Zuliani Sportsmanship Award
Good sportsmanship is one of the most important aspect of the game. As parents, guardians, and coaches, we do our very best to instill the finest qualities in our children as they grow into adults.
Groton Little League presents a Sportsmanship Award to one player at the end of every season. The player that is chosen to receive this honor is someone who conducts themselves on and off the field with fairness and respect towards others. This player is gracious in victory, and well-mannered in defeat. This is not an award that is based on skill; it is given to the player who most exemplifies selfless dedication to team, tireless enthusiasm, and an unwavering respect and love for the game of baseball.
The Sportsmanship award is named after a former Groton Little League player - Dominick A. Zuliani. Dominick lived in Groton and played baseball at Washington Park, the very same fields we practice and play on today. He played and made his way through Little League, beginning in Farm League (known today as minors), then moved on to Little League (majors), ultimately graduating and moving on to Groton Babe Ruth.
Dominick became ill in high school, passing away a few years after graduation. During his years playing baseball, he was known for his sportsmanship. Dominick was a gracious winner, always honorable in defeat, respected others, and respected the game of baseball. Groton Little League is grateful to have an award named after such an individual.

Fatigue is a common symptom of diabetes and can result from high blood sugar levels and other symptoms and complications of the condition. Some lifestyle changes can help a person manage diabetes fatigue. Fatigue and tiredness are not the same. When a person is tired, they usually feel better after resting.
The countries with the lowest estimated prevalence in the 38 nation league were (lowest first), Lithuania, Estonia, and Ireland (all around 4%), followed by Sweden, Luxembourg, the U.K., and Australia (all around 5%).
What causes type 1 diabetes? Type 1 diabetes occurs when your immune system, the body's system for fighting infection, attacks and destroys the insulin-producing beta cells of the pancreas. Scientists think type 1 diabetes is caused by genes and environmental factors, such as viruses, that might trigger the disease.
More people are developing type 1 and type 2 diabetes during youth, and racial and ethnic minorities continue to develop type 2 diabetes at higher rates. Likewise, the proportion of older people in our nation is increasing, and older people are more likely to have a chronic disease like diabetes.
1. Diabetes isn't a serious disease. Diabetes is a serious, chronic disease. In fact, two out of three people with diabetes will die from cardiovascular-related episodes, such as a heart attack or stroke.
Type 2 diabetes is a serious medical condition that often requires the use of anti-diabetic medication, or insulin to keep blood sugar levels under control. However, the development of type 2 diabetes and its side effects (complications) can be prevented if detected and treated at an early stage.

When your blood sugar is normal with no treatment, then the diabetes is considered to have gone away. However, even when the blood sugars are controlled, because type 2 diabetes is a genetic condition, the predisposition for diabetes always exists. High blood sugars can come back.
Healthy eating is your recipe for managing diabetes. More than 34 million Americans have diabetes (about 1 in 10), and approximately 90-95% of them have type 2 diabetes. Type 2 diabetes most often develops in people over age 45, but more and more children, teens, and young adults are also developing it.
The prevalence of diabetes is increasing in Japan, and it is estimated that more than 12 million Japanese people are hyperglycemic. This high prevalence is most likely the result of a complex interplay between genetic and environmental factors specific to Japan.
Type 2 diabetes develops when the body becomes resistant to insulin or when the pancreas is unable to produce enough insulin. Exactly why this happens is unknown, although genetics and environmental factors, such as being overweight and inactive, seem to be contributing factors.
Rates of diagnosed diabetes were higher among American Indians/Alaska Natives (15.1 percent), non-Hispanic blacks (12.7 percent), and Hispanics (12.1 percent), compared to Asians (8.0 percent) and non-Hispanic whites (7.4 percent).
The prevalence of diabetes is highest among Native Americans (33%) and lowest among Alaska natives (5.5%; Table 1). NHWs and Asian Americans have similar prevalence rates of 7.1% and 8.4%, respectively, where NHBs and Hispanic Americans overall have higher prevalence rates of 11.8% and 12.6%, respectively.
Type 2 diabetes is bad for many reasons. High glucose levels damage nerve and blood vessels, leading to heart disease, stroke, blindness, kidney disease, and gum infections. Advanced type 2 diabetes can result in blindness and the need to amputate limbs that no longer get adequate circulation.

By Lawrence Hurley
WASHINGTON (Reuters) – The U.S. Supreme Court on Thursday blocked President Barack Obama's plan to spare millions of immigrants in the country illegally from deportation in a split ruling that heartened political foes who had accused him of overstepping his powers.
The 4-4 ruling, coming seven months before Obama's term in office ends, marked the latest success that his Republican adversaries have had in thwarting a major policy initiative of the Democratic president. Obama had hoped that overhauling the U.S. immigration system and resolving the fate of the estimated 11 million people in the country illegally would be part of his presidential legacy.
The ruling is likely to further amplify the role that the immigration issue will play in the run-up to the Nov. 8 presidential election in which voters will pick Obama's successor. It also leaves in legal limbo the roughly 4 million people Obama's action was meant to help.
Obama unveiled his plan in November 2014. It was quickly challenged in court by Republican-governed Texas and 25 other states that argued that Obama overstepped the powers granted to him by the U.S. Constitution by infringing upon the authority of Congress. His unilateral executive action bypassed the Republican-led Congress.
Because the court was split, a 2015 lower-court ruling invalidating Obama's plan was left in place. The plan never was implemented because the lower courts had blocked it.
The plan was tailored to let roughly 4 million people – those who have lived illegally in the United States at least since 2010, have no criminal record and have children who are U.S. citizens or lawful permanent residents – get into a program that shields them from deportation and supplies work permits.
A split ruling was possible because the court was down to eight justices, four liberals and four conservatives, after conservative justice Antonin Scalia died in February. The Republican-led Senate has refused to act on Obama's nomination of appeals court judge Merrick Garland to replace Scalia.
In an appearance at the White House after the ruling, Obama expressed frustration at the court's inability to issue a decisive ruling on the merits of the case and at Senate Republicans for "willfully" keeping the court shorthanded.
"I think it is heartbreaking for the millions of immigrants who made their lives here, who've raised families here, who hope for the opportunity to work, pay taxes, serve in our military, and fully contribute to this country we all love in an open way," Obama said.
Obama said the U.S. immigration system has been broken for two decades and that this ruling set it back even further.
The issue of illegal immigration has featured prominently in the presidential campaign. Donald Trump, the presumptive Republican nominee, has called for deportation of all illegal immigrants – most of them from Mexico and other Latin American countries – and building a wall along the Mexican border.
The court did not reveal how each justice voted in the ruling, but it was possible the four liberals backed Obama and the four conservatives backed the states.
The court appeared divided along ideological lines during oral arguments on April 18, with liberals indicating support for the administration and conservative opposed.
'MAJOR SETBACK'
The nation's top elected Republican, U.S. House of Representatives Speaker Paul Ryan, and others in his party welcomed the ruling.
"This is a major setback to President Obama's attempts to expand executive power, and a victory for those who believe in the separation of powers and the rule of law," said Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, a Republican.
The Constitution assigns certain powers to the executive, legislative and judicial branches of the federal government.
The split decision set no nationwide legal precedent on presidential power or immigration law. The ruling indicates that any major immigration policy change that would address the long-term situation of illegal immigrants would have to be enacted by Congress.
"We feel that justice has turned its back on millions of immigrants who, much like our founding fathers and mothers, sought a better future for themselves and their children and yet continue to live in the shadows without the respect and dignity that they deserve," said Jorge-Mario Cabrera, a spokesman for the Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights of Los Angeles.
The Obama administration could ask the high court to rehear the case, as losing parties in two other cases in which the court has split 4-4 have done. The court has not yet acted on those other petitions.
The Supreme Court decision does not affect a separate 2012 program aimed at protecting people brought to the United States as children from deportation, which Texas and the other states did not challenge.
Obama took the action after House Republicans killed bipartisan immigration legislation, billed as the biggest overhaul of U.S. laws on the matter in decades and providing a path to citizenship for illegal immigrants, that was passed by the Senate in 2013.
Maya Ledezma, an immigrant from Mexico who lives in Maryland, said would have been eligible for Obama's program because she has lived in the United States for more than a decade and has an 8-year-old daughter who is a U.S. citizen.
"My life would have changed if the vote had been favorable," she said through a translator during a rally outside the Supreme Court.
Republicans have been critical of Obama's use of executive action to get around Congress on immigration policy and other issues such as gun control and healthcare.
Presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton criticized the ruling for "throwing millions of families across our country into a state of uncertainty." Trump said the ruling "blocked one of the most unconstitutional actions ever undertaken by a president."

A quick thanks to Graham for organising this trip! Long weekend diving with Aquaholic's based in Balllycastle. 14 Club Members and ferrys to catch as well as accommodation is never easy. Delivered on budget an excellent trip to round the year off. Diving from two ribs proved interesting especially as only one had a liift! The pub could not have been closer and proved a more than adequate place to debrief the days diving. We even managed some sight seeing (Giants Causeway etc) The two signature dives are the wreck and a very scenic wall which in places disappears into 100m+ depths. Certainly at times not for the faint hearted dealing with the swell and currents. The weather at times could have been kinder but at least did not prevent us diving.

The _No Child Left Behind_ Act fails to balance equity and excellence.
The 'No Child Left Behind' Act fails to balance equity and excellence.
Throughout our history, Americans have stood strong for two bedrock values: equity and excellence. Defining equity in terms of access to opportunity, we remain a country that values the possibility that every child—even those born into poverty—can achieve eminence through effort. We are a better and stronger people, we continue to remind ourselves, to the degree that we support this journey. At the same time, we hold fast to the value of excellence. Americans want to be the best—in science, engineering, movie-making, athletics, and countless other endeavors. If something matters to us, we want, as a nation, to push the envelope of possibilities in that area.
Balancing these twin commitments, to equity and to excellence, is a challenge. But it is a nonnegotiable one if we are to become who we wish to be. Nowhere is the challenge greater than in public education. Yet, nowhere else do we find the means to achieve the balance that we seek. Schools are the primary pathway in our society to equality of opportunity. They also are the mechanism through which we train individual human minds to function at peak levels—and, thus, to collectively scale new heights as a nation.
Yet, one of the reasons it is so devilishly difficult to balance equity and excellence in our schools is that, despite the political rhetoric to the contrary, we simply don't provide adequate economic support to nurture both goals. We have a substantial history in education, in fact, of supporting one to the detriment of the other. There have been few examples of our simultaneously giving attention to both goals. At times, we have come close to setting the fulcrum at a point of balance, but rarely have we done so. The "No Child Left Behind" Act of 2001 appears to be another missed opportunity.
This federal legislation is a laudable advance toward equity. Its impetus to ensure that all children achieve proficiency in the foundational skills of learning is clear, and some financial support for doing so is forthcoming. It would not take much to adjust the legislation so that it also supported excellence. But for now, it does not.
At present, the No Child Left Behind Act aims the nation's attention and resources at ensuring that nonproficient students move systematically toward proficiency. There is no incentive for schools to attend to the growth of students once they attain proficiency, or to spur students who are already proficient to greater achievement, and certainly not to inspire those who far exceed proficiency. To provide encouragement—even the impetus—to ensure that schools plan for the growth of every child, thus attending to both equity and excellence, would not require a great deal.
In most classrooms, there are students who can score at a level far beyond proficiency in that grade before each school year begins. Our educational history demonstrates clearly that teachers are prone to ignore these students in favor of learners in academic difficulty. Few, if any, provisions are made in general classrooms to ensure continuing challenge for advanced learners. In some cases, programs outside the general classroom, often meeting once a week for less than an hour, are designated as places that should provide this academic challenge.
Many other students in general classrooms, of course, have achieved proficiency, or will achieve it, prior to designated testing dates. The No Child Left Behind Act, with its focus on proficiency rather than academic growth, enhances the likelihood that this broad swath of learners will be all but irrelevant in daily classroom planning.
The act does nothing to focus our national conversation, teacher training, or classroom planning on what would be necessary to teach young people to be truly literate.
That we as a nation have elected to "raise educational standards" through a remediation-focused initiative is a familiar irony. Yes, decoding and encoding are clearly invaluable tools for opening access to educational opportunity. But we have known for a long time that true readers are born when young people discover meaning in literature; writers are born when children discover the potential of the written word for sharing stories and probing issues in their own lives and in the larger world.
Readers and writers are also thinkers, askers of questions that defy easy answers. One wonders what the differences for learners, and for the nation, might be if the power of the federal government lined up behind a curriculum designed to ensure reasoning and a passion to communicate. Wouldn't this serve our young people better than defining success largely in terms of decoding and encoding?
Making sure children have the ability to decipher and record words is certainly a step in the direction of ensuring equity in education. The problem, however, is that by setting the bar of achievement at a level lower than what we ought to expect of any of our children, the No Child Left Behind Act does nothing to focus our national conversation, teacher training, or classroom planning on what would be necessary to teach young people to be truly literate. Once again we seem to forget that excellence and equity are required of a nation that wills itself to excel in the world.
Perhaps most regrettable is that this new legislation repeats a past pattern of approaching a group of largely poor and minority students with minimal expectations for achievement. That these students are often poorly served in school (and in society) is both evident and tragic. The question is whether they will be better served by an educational initiative that emphasizes baseline performance or one that is directed at ensuring their growth well beyond proficiency.
If the No Child Left Behind Act put its considerable force behind continuous growth for every learner, outcomes for students we seldom identify with excellence might be remarkably improved. Students who are currently nonproficient might well be better served (as would many other students) by a systematic plan to move the maximum number of learners toward excellence, rather than limiting the focus to something significantly less robust.
As it is now, No Child Left Behind supports the proposition that proficiency is good enough.
If the language of the federal legislation were amended, and the necessary funding provided to require planning for monitoring and ensuring the growth of every child, we would be far closer to an educational system primed to maximize the capacity of each learner. As it is now, No Child Left Behind supports the proposition that proficiency (which can be defined at somewhat minimal levels) is good enough.
An equity initiative that discourages attention to excellence—no matter how laudable its goals may seem—cannot take us the full distance we need to go as a nation. While it is a critical time in our history to ensure that vulnerable students are fully supported in growth, it is not a good time to tacitly post a sign on the schoolhouse door that says, "We have no serious plans for you once you are beyond proficiency." At this moment in history, it would seem more essential than at most other times to make a clear statement of will and policy to ensure that we raise ceilings of performance as fervently as we raise floors.
How much more promising the No Child Left Behind Act would be if it genuinely ensured that no child would be left behind in terms of developing his or her possibilities—if it unreservedly supported both equity and excellence.

F5 snags Volterra multi-cloud management startup for $500M
Posted on January 7, 2021 January 7, 2021 by DREAMTECH
F5, the applications networking company announced today that it is acquiring Volterra, a multi-cloud management startup for $500 million. That breaks down to $440 million in cash and $60 million in deferred and unvested incentive compensation.
Volterra emerged in 2019 with a $50 million investment from multiple sources including Khosla Ventures and Mayfield along with strategic investors like M12 (Microsoft's venture arm) and Samsung Ventures. As the company described it to me at the time of the funding:
Volterra has innovated a consistent, cloud-native environment that can be deployed across multiple public clouds and edge sites — a distributed cloud platform. Within this SaaS-based offering, Volterra integrates a broad range of services that have normally been siloed across many point products and network or cloud providers.
The solution is designed to provide a single way to view security, operations and management components.

F5 president and CEO François Locoh-Donou sees Volterra's edge solution integrating across its product line. "With Volterra, we advance our Adaptive Applications vision with an Edge 2.0 platform that solves the complex multi-cloud reality enterprise customers confront. Our platform will create a SaaS solution that solves our customers' biggest pain points," he said in a statement.
Volterra founder and CEO Ankur Singla, writing in a company blog post announcing the deal, says the need for this solution only accelerated during 2020 when companies were shifting rapidly to the cloud due to the pandemic. "When we started Volterra, multi-cloud and edge were still buzzwords and venture funding was still searching for tangible use cases. Fast forward three years and COVID-19 has dramatically changed the landscape — it has accelerated digitization of physical experiences and moved more of our day-to-day activities online. This is causing massive spikes in global Internet traffic while creating new attack vectors that impact the security and availability of our increasing set of daily apps," he wrote.
He sees Volterra's capabilities fitting in well with the F5 family of products to help solve these issues. While F5 had a quiet 2020 on the M&A front, today's purchase comes on top of a couple of major acquisitions in 2019 including Shape Security for $1 billion and NGINX for $670 million.
The deal has been approved by both companies boards, and is expected to close before the end of March subject to regulatory approvals.

Latent AI makes edge AI workloads more efficient
Latent AI, a startup that was spun out of SRI International, makes it easier to run AI workloads at the edge by dynamically managing workloads as necessary.
Using its proprietary compression and compilation process, Latent AI promises to compress library files by 10x and run them with 5x lower latency than other systems, all while using less power thanks to its new adaptive AI technology, which the company is launching as part of its appearance in the TechCrunch Disrupt Battlefield competition today.
Founded by CEO Jags Kandasamy and CTO Sek Chai, the company has already raised a $6.5 million seed round led by Steve Jurvetson of Future Ventures and followed by Autotech Ventures .
Before starting Latent AI, Kandasamy sold his previous startup OtoSense to Analog Devices (in addition to managing HPE Mid-Market Security business before that). OtoSense used data from sound and vibration sensors for predictive maintenance use cases. Before its sale, the company worked with the likes of Delta Airlines and Airbus.
Image Credits: Latent AI
In some ways, Latent AI picks up some of this work and marries it with IP from SRI International .
"With OtoSense, I had already done some edge work," Kandasamy said. "We had moved the audio recognition part out of the cloud. We did the learning in the cloud, but the recognition was done in the edge device and we had to convert quickly and get it down. Our bill in the first few months made us move that way. You couldn't be streaming data over LTE or 3G for too long."
At SRI, Chai worked on a project that looked at how to best manage power for flying objects where, if you have a single source of power, the system could intelligently allocate resources for either powering the flight or running the onboard compute workloads, mostly for surveillance, and then switch between them as needed. Most of the time, in a surveillance use case, nothing happens. And while that's the case, you don't need to compute every frame you see.
"We took that and we made it into a tool and a platform so that you can apply it to all sorts of use cases, from voice to vision to segmentation to time series stuff," Kandasamy explained.
What AI startups need to achieve before VCs will invest
What's important to note here is that the company offers the various components of what it calls the Latent AI Efficient Inference Platform (LEIP) as standalone modules or as a fully integrated system. The compressor and compiler are the first two of these and what the company is launching today is LEIP Adapt, the part of the system that manages the dynamic AI workloads Kandasamy described above.
In practical terms, the use case for LEIP Adapt is that your battery-powered smart doorbell, for example, can run in a low-powered mode for a long time, waiting for something to happen. Then, when somebody arrives at your door, the camera wakes up to run a larger model — maybe even on the doorbell's base station that is plugged into power — to do image recognition. And if a whole group of people arrives at ones (which isn't likely right now, but maybe next year, after the pandemic is under control), the system can offload the workload to the cloud as needed.
Kandasamy tells me that the interest in the technology has been "tremendous." Given his previous experience and the network of SRI International, it's maybe no surprise that Latent AI is getting a lot of interest from the automotive industry, but Kandasamy also noted that the company is working with consumer companies, including a camera and a hearing aid maker.
The company is also working with a major telco company that is looking at Latent AI as part of its AI orchestration platform and a large CDN provider to help them run AI workloads on a JavaScript backend.
The sound of impending failure
SiMa.ai announces $30M Series A to build out lower-power edge chip solution
Posted on May 12, 2020 May 12, 2020 by DREAMTECH
Krishna Rangasayee, founder and CEO, at SiMa.ai, has 30 years of experience in the semiconductor industry. He decided to put that experience to work in a startup and launched SiMa.ai last year with the goal of building an ultra low-power software and chip solution for machine learning at the edge.
Today he announced a $30 million Series A led by Dell Technologies Capital with help from Amplify Partners, Wing Venture Capital and +ND Capital. Today's investment brings the total raised to $40 million, according to the company.
Rangasayee says in his years as a chip executive he saw a gap in the machine learning market for embedded devices running at the edge and he decided to start the company to solve that issue.
"While the majority of the market was serviced by traditional computing, machine learning was beginning to make an impact and it was really amazing. I wanted to build a company that would bring machine learning at significant scale to help the problems with embedded markets," he told TechCrunch.
The company is trying to focus on efficiency, which it says will make the solution more environmentally friendly by using less power. "Our solution can scale high performance at the lowest power efficiency, and that translates to the highest frames per second per watt. We have built out an architecture and a software solution that is at a minimum 30x better than anybody else on the frames per second," he explained.
He added that achieving that efficiency required them to build a chip from scratch because there isn't a solution available off the shelf today that could achieve that.
So far the company has attracted 20 early design partners, who are testing what they've built. He hopes to have the chip designed and the software solution in Beta in the Q4 timeframe this year, and is shooting for chip production by Q2 in 2021.
He recognizes that it's hard to raise this kind of money in the current environment and he's grateful to the investors, and the design partners who believe in his vision. The timing could actually work in the company's favor because it can hunker down and build product while navigating through the current economic malaise.
Perhaps by 2021 when the product is in production, the market and the economy will be in better shape and the company will be ready to deliver.
Edge computing startup Pensando comes out of stealth mode with a total of $278 million in funding
Pensando, an edge computing startup founded by former Cisco engineers, came out of stealth mode today with an announcement that it has raised a $145 million Series C. The company's software and hardware technology, created to give data centers more of the flexibility of cloud computing servers, is being positioned as a competitor to Amazon Web Services Nitro.
The round was led by Hewlett Packard Enterprise and Lightspeed Venture Partners and brings Pensando's total raised so far to $278 million. HPE chief technology officer Mark Potter and Lightspeed Venture partner Barry Eggers will join Pensando's board of directors. The company's chairman is former Cisco CEO John Chambers, who is also one of Pensando's investors through JC2 Ventures.
Pensando was founded in 2017 by Mario Mazzola, Prem Jain, Luca Cafiero and Soni Jiandani, a team of engineers who spearheaded the development of several of Cisco's key technologies, and founded four startups that were acquired by Cisco, including Insieme Networks. (In an interview with Reuters, Pensando chief financial offier Randy Pond, a former Cisco executive vice president, said it isn't clear if Cisco is interested in acquiring the startup, adding "our aspirations at this point would be to IPO. But, you know, there's always other possibilities for monetization events.")
The startup claims its edge computing platform performs five to nine times better than AWS Nitro, in terms of productivity and scale.

Satya Nadella looks to the future with edge computing
Speaking today at the Microsoft Government Leaders Summit in Washington DC, Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella made the case for edge computing, even while pushing the Azure cloud as what he called "the world's computer."
While Amazon, Google and other competitors may have something to say about that, marketing hype aside, many companies are still in the midst of transitioning to the cloud. Nadella says the future of computing could actually be at the edge where computing is done locally before data is then transferred to the cloud for AI and machine learning purposes. What goes around, comes around.
But as Nadella sees it, this is not going to be about either edge or cloud. It's going to be the two technologies working in tandem. "Now, all this is being driven by this new tech paradigm that we describe as the intelligent cloud and the intelligent edge," he said today.
He said that to truly understand the impact the edge is going to have on computing, you have to look at research, which predicts there will be 50 billion connected devices in the world by 2030, a number even he finds astonishing. "I mean this is pretty stunning. We think about a billion Windows machines or a couple of billion smartphones. This is 50 billion [devices], and that's the scope," he said.
The key here is that these 50 billion devices, whether you call them edge devices or the Internet of Things, will be generating tons of data. That means you will have to develop entirely new ways of thinking about how all this flows together. "The capacity at the edge, that ubiquity is going to be transformative in how we think about computation in any business process of ours," he said. As we generate ever-increasing amounts of data, whether we are talking about public sector kinds of use case, or any business need, it's going to be the fuel for artificial intelligence, and he sees the sheer amount of that data driving new AI use cases.
"Of course when you have that rich computational fabric, one of the things that you can do is create this new asset, which is data and AI. There is not going to be a single application, a single experience that you are going to build, that is not going to be driven by AI, and that means you have to really have the ability to reason over large amounts of data to create that AI," he said.
Nadella would be more than happy to have his audience take care of all that using Microsoft products, whether Azure compute, database, AI tools or edge computers like the Data Box Edge it introduced in 2018. While Nadella is probably right about the future of computing, all of this could apply to any cloud, not just Microsoft.
As computing shifts to the edge, it's going to have a profound impact on the way we think about technology in general, but it's probably not going to involve being tied to a single vendor, regardless of how comprehensive their offerings may be.
Edge computing could push the cloud to the fringe
Data storage company Cloudian launches a new edge analytics subsidiary called Edgematrix
Cloudian, a company that enables businesses to store and manage massive amounts of data, announced today the launch of Edgematrix, a new unit focused on edge analytics for large data sets. Edgematrix, a majority-owned subsidiary of Cloudian, will first be available in Japan, where both companies are based. It has raised a $9 million Series A from strategic investors NTT Docomo, Shimizu Corporation and Japan Post Capital, as well as Cloudian co-founder and CEO Michael Tso and board director Jonathan Epstein. The funding will be used on product development, deployment and sales and marketing.
Cloudian itself has raised a total of $174 million, including a $94 million Series E round announced last year. Its products include the Hyperstore platform, which allows businesses to store hundreds of petrabytes of data on premise, and software for data analytics and machine learning. Edgematrix uses Hyperstore for storing large-scale data sets and its own AI software and hardware for data processing at the "edge" of networks, closer to where data is collected from IoT devices like sensors.
The company's solutions were created for situations where real-time analytics is necessary. For example, it can be used to detect the make, model and year of cars on highways so targeted billboard ads can be displayed to their drivers.
Tso told TechCrunch in an email that Edgematrix was launched after Cloudian co-founder and president Hiroshi Ohta and a team spent two years working on technology to help Cloudian customers process and analyze their data more efficiently.
"With more and more data being created at the edge, including IoT data, there's a growing need for being able to apply real-time data analysis and decision-making at or near the edge, minimizing the transmission costs and latencies involved in moving the data elsewhere," said Tso. "Based on the initial success of a small Cloudian team developing AI software solutions and attracting a number of top-tier customers, we decided that the best way to build on this success was establishing a subsidiary with strategic investors."
Edgematrix is launching in Japan first because spending on AI systems there is expected to grow faster than in any other market, at a compound annual growth rate of 45.3% from 2018 to 2023, according to IDC.
"Japan has been ahead of the curve as an early adopter of AI technology, with both the governmetn and private sector viewing it as essential to boosting productivity," said Tso. "Edgematrix will focus on the Japanese market for at least the next year, and assuming that all goes well, it would then expand to North America and Europe."
Microsoft brings Azure SQL Database to the edge (and Arm)
Posted on May 2, 2019 May 2, 2019 by DREAMTECH
Microsoft today announced an interesting update to its database lineup with the preview of Azure SQL Database Edge, a new tool that brings the same database engine that powers Azure SQL Database in the cloud to edge computing devices, including, for the first time, Arm-based machines.
Azure SQL Edge, Azure corporate vice president Julia White writes in today's announcement, "brings to the edge the same performant, secure and easy to manage SQL engine that our customers love in Azure SQL Database and SQL Server."
The new service, which will also run on x64-based devices and edge gateways, promises to bring low-latency analytics to edge devices as it allows users to work with streaming data and time-series data, combined with the built-in machine learning capabilities of Azure SQL Database. Like its larger brethren, Azure SQL Database Edge will also support graph data and comes with the same security and encryption features that can, for example, protect the data at rest and in motion, something that's especially important for an edge device.
As White rightly notes, this also ensures that developers only have to write an application once and then deploy it to platforms that feature Azure SQL Database, good old SQL Server on premises and this new edge version.
SQL Database Edge can run in both connected and fully disconnected fashion, something that's also important for many use cases where connectivity isn't always a given, yet where users need the kind of data analytics capabilities to keep their businesses (or drilling platforms, or cruise ships) running.
Docker developers can now build Arm containers on their desktops
Docker and Arm today announced a major new partnership that will see the two companies collaborate in bringing improved support for the Arm platform to Docker's tools.
The main idea here is to make it easy for Docker developers to build their applications for the Arm platform right from their x86 desktops and then deploy them to the cloud (including the Arm-based AWS EC2 A1 instances), edge and IoT devices. Developers will be able to build their containers for Arm just like they do today, without the need for any cross-compliation.
This new capability, which will work for applications written in Javascript/Node.js, Python, Java, C++, Ruby, .NET core, Go, Rust and PHP, will become available as a tech preview next week, when Docker hosts its annual North American developer conference in San Francisco.
Typically, developers would have to build the containers they want to run on the Arm platform on an Arm-based server. With this system, which is the first result of this new partnership, Docker essentially emulates an Arm chip on the PC for building these images.
"Overnight, the 2 million Docker developers that are out there can use the Docker commands they already know and become Arm developers," Docker EVP of Business Development David Messina told me. "Docker, just like we've done many times over, has simplified and streamlined processes and made them simpler and accessible to developers. And in this case, we're making x86 developers on their laptops Arm developers overnight."
Given that cloud-based Arm servers like Amazon's A1 instances are often signficantly cheaper than x86 machines, users can achieve some immediate cost benefits by using this new system and running their containers on Arm.
For Docker, this partnership opens up new opportunities, especially in areas where Arm chips are already strong, including edge and IoT scenarios. Arm, similarly, is interested in strengthening its developer ecosystem by making it easier to develop for its platform. The easier it is to build apps for the platform, the more likely developers are to then run them on servers that feature chips from Arm's partners.
"Arm's perspective on the infrastructure really spans all the way from the endpoint, all the way through the edge to the cloud data center, because we are one of the few companies that have a presence all the way through that entire path," Mohamed Awad, Arm's VP of Marketing, Infrastructure Line of Business, said. "It's that perspective that drove us to make sure that we engage Docker in a meaningful way and have a meaningful relationship with them. We are seeing compute and the infrastructure sort of transforming itself right now from the old model of centralized compute, general purpose architecture, to a more distributed and more heterogeneous compute system."
Developers, however, Awad rightly noted, don't want to have to deal with this complexity, yet they also increasingly need to ensure that their applications run on a wide variety of platform and that they can move them around as needed. "For us, this is about enabling developers and freeing them from lock-in on any particular area and allowing them to choose the right compute for the right job that is the most efficient for them," Awad said.
Mesina noted that the promise of Docker has long been to remove the dependence of applications from the infrastructure they run on. Adding Arm support simply extends this promise to an additional platform. He also stressed that the work on this was driven by the company's enterprise customers. These are the users who have already set up their systems for cloud-native development with Docker's tools — at least for their x86 development. Those customers are now looking at developing for their edge devices, too, and that often means developing for Arm-based devices.
Awad and Messina both stressed that developers really don't have to learn anything new to make this work. All of the usual Docker commands will just work.
Baidu Cloud launches its open source edge computing platform
At CES, the Chinese tech giant Baidu today announced OpenEdge, its open source edge computing platform. At its core, OpenEdge is the local package component of Baidu's existing Intelligent Edge (BIE) commercial offering and obviously plays well with that service's components for managing edge nodes and apps.
Since this is obviously a developer announcement, I'm not sure why Baidu decided to use CES as the venue for this release, but there can be no doubt that China's major tech firms have become quite comfortable with open source. Companies like Baidu, Alibaba, Tencent and others are often members of the Linux Foundation and its growing stable of projects, for example, and virtually ever major open source organization now looks to China as its growth market. It's no surprise then that we're also now seeing a wider range of Chinese companies that open source their own projects.
"Edge computing is a critical component of Baidu's ABC (AI, Big Data and Cloud Computing) strategy," says Baidu VP and GM of Baidu Cloud Watson Yin. "By moving the compute closer to the source of the data, it greatly reduces the latency, lowers the bandwidth usage and ultimately brings real-time and immersive experiences to end users. And by providing an open source platform, we have also greatly simplified the process for developers to create their own edge computing applications."
A company spokesperson tells us that the open source platform will include features like data collection, message distribution and AI inference, as well as tools for syncing with the cloud.
Baidu also today announced that it has partnered with Intel to launch the BIE-AI-Box and with NXP Semiconductors to launch the BIE-AI-Board. The box is designed for in-vehicle video analysis while the board is small enough for cameras, drones, robots and similar applications.
AWS Global Accelerators helps customers manage traffic across zones
Posted on November 26, 2018 November 26, 2018 by DREAMTECH
Many AWS customers have to run in multiple zones for many reasons including performance requirements, regulatory issues or fail-over management. Whatever the reason, AWS announced a new tool tonight called Global Accelerators designed to help customers route traffic more easily across multiple regions.
Peter DeSantis, VP of global infrastructure and customer support at AWS speaking at an event Monday night at AWS Re:Invent explained that much of AWS customer traffic already flows over their massive network, and customers are using AWS Direct Connect to help applications get consistent performance and low network variability as customers move between AWS regions. He said what has been missing is a way to use the AWS global network to optimize their applications.
"Tonight I'm excited to announce AWS Global Accelerator. AWS Global Accelerator makes it easy for you to improve the performance and availability of your applications by taking advantage of the AWS global network," he told the AWS re:Invent audience.

"Your customer traffic is routed from your end users to the closest AWS edge location and from there traverses congestion-free redundant, highly available AWS global network. In addition to improving performance AWS Global Accelerator has built-in fault isolation, which instantly reacts to changes in the network health or your applications configuration," DeSantis explained.
In fact, network administrators can route traffic based on defined policies such as health or geographic requirements and the traffic will move to the designated zone automatically based on those policies.
AWS plans to charge customers based on the number of accelerators they create. "An accelerator is the resource you create to direct traffic to optimal endpoints over the AWS global network. Customers will typically set up one accelerator for each application, but more complex applications may require more than one accelerator," AWS's Shaun Ray wrote in a blog post announcing the new feature.
AWS Global Accelerator is available today in several regions in the US, Europe and Asia.
Swim.ai raises $11M to bring real-time analytics to the edge
Posted on July 18, 2018 July 18, 2018 by DREAMTECH
Once upon a time, it looked like cloud-based serviced would become the central hub for analyzing all IoT data. But it didn't quite turn out that way because most IoT solutions simply generate too much data to do this effectively and the round-trip to the data center doesn't work for applications that have to react in real time. Hence the advent of edge computing, which is spawing its own ecosystem of startups.
Among those is Swim.ai, which today announced that it has raised an $11 million Series B funding round let by Cambridge Innovation Capital, with participation from Silver Creek Ventures and Harris Barton Asset Management. The round also included a strategic investment from Arm, the chip design firm you may still remember as ARM (but don't write it like that or their PR department will promptly email you). This brings the company's total funding to about $18 million.
Swim.ai has an interesting take on edge computing. The company's SWIM EDX product combines both local data processing and analytics with local machine learning. In a traditional approach, the edge devices collect the data, maybe perform some basic operations against the data to bring down the bandwidth cost and then ship it to the cloud where the hard work is done and where, if you are doing machine learning, the models are trained. Swim.ai argues that this doesn't work for applications that need to respond in real time. Swim.ai, however, performs the model training on the edge device itself by pulling in data from all connected devices. It then builds a digital twin for each one of these devices and uses that to self-train its models based on this data.
"Demand for the EDX software is rapidly increasing, driven by our software's unique ability to analyze and reduce data, share new insights instantly peer-to-peer – locally at the 'edge' on existing equipment. Efficiently processing edge data and enabling insights to be easily created and delivered with the lowest latency are critical needs for any organization," said Rusty Cumpston, co-founder and CEO of Swim.ai. "We are thrilled to partner with our new and existing investors who share our vision and look forward to shaping the future of real-time analytics at the edge."
The company doesn't disclose any current customers, but it is focusing its efforts on manufacturers, service providers and smart city solutions.
Swim.ai plans to use its new funding to launch a new R&D center in Cambridge, UK, expand its product development team and tackle new verticals and geographies with an expanded sales and marketing team.
Microsoft brings more AI smarts to the edge
At its Build developer conference this week, Microsoft is putting a lot of emphasis on artificial intelligence and edge computing. To a large degree, that means bringing many of the existing Azure services to machines that sit at the edge, no matter whether that's a large industrial machine in a warehouse or a remote oil-drilling platform. The service that brings all of this together is Azure IoT Edge, which is getting quite a few updates today. IoT Edge is a collection of tools that brings AI, Azure services and custom apps to IoT devices.
As Microsoft announced today, Azure IoT Edge, which sits on top of Microsoft's IoT Hub service, is now getting support for Microsoft's Cognitive Services APIs, for example, as well as support for Event Grid and Kubernetes containers. In addition, Microsoft is also open sourcing the Azure IoT Edge runtime, which will allow developers to customize their edge deployments as needed.
The highlight here is support for Cognitive Services for edge deployments. Right now, this is a bit of a limited service as it actually only supports the Custom Vision service, but over time, the company plans to bring other Cognitive Services to the edge as well. The appeal of this service is pretty obvious, too, as it will allow industrial equipment or even drones to use these machine learning models without internet connectivity so they can take action even when they are offline.
As far as AI goes, Microsoft also today announced that it will bring its new Brainwave deep neural network acceleration platform for real-time AI to the edge.
The company has also teamed up with Qualcomm to launch an AI developer kit for on-device inferencing on the edge. The focus of the first version of this kit will be on camera-based solutions, which doesn't come as a major surprise given that Qualcomm recently launched its own vision intelligence platform.
IoT Edge is also getting a number of other updates that don't directly involve machine learning. Kubernetes support is an obvious one and a smart addition, given that it will allow developers to build Kubernetes clusters that can span both the edge and a more centralized cloud.
The appeal of running Event Grid, Microsoft's event routing service, at the edge is also pretty obvious, given that it'll allow developers to connect services with far lower latency than if all the data had to run through a remote data center.
Other IoT Edge updates include the planned launch of a marketplace that will allow Microsoft partners and developers to share and monetize their edge modules, as well as a new certification program for hardware manufacturers to ensure that their devices are compatible with Microsoft's platform. IoT Edge, as well as Windows 10 IoT and Azure Machine Learning, will also soon support hardware-accelerated model evaluation with DirextX 12 GPU, which is available in virtually every modern Windows PC.

A: Try to add the culture to your page:
<%@ Page Language="VB" Title="..." Culture="en-US" %>

Different cultures can do different results...
Maybe the server culture is different from your culture

A: If you have any kind of datetime field in your table schema (perhaps as a timestamp), EF is not smart enough by default to respect the SQL defaults (like getdate()), so you need to set that yourself when adding entities. Otherwise, EF tries to set the value to the default value of DateTime (which seems to be 01/01/0001), which results in a date that is not valid for the datetime MSSQL type (although changing the field to datetime2 should work).
