Most people do not realize it is possible to extend vSphere into a public cloud environment because of the lack of conversation surrounding it. Approximately only 20-30% of customers are aware of this and the ones that do know about this are organizations that are researching thoroughly and asking questions about different solution offerings and capabilities. When this does get brought up with customers we often find that they are already using AWS as part of their networking strategy. They see that the vSphere workloads they have now are very similar to their AWS workloads and that alone seems really attractive because of the possibility of cost optimization. Once that discovery is made and the conversation with an IT partner verifies that vSphere can be extended into the public cloud as simply as any other cloud strategy, we see those 'eureka moments' with adoption soon following.
When organizations run VMs or their workloads, what they really want is to have another location to host their networks. If they are looking to reinforce a hybrid cloud strategy, this method supports that. If they need to have a DR solution without setting up another DR site, this supports that. If IT decision makers heard about VDI on AWS and Azure from VMware and want to explore that, vSphere supports this as well in the public cloud.
CapEx vs. OpEx: Utilizing a vSphere strategy allows organizations to determine if the IT spend should be CapEx or OpEx. The CFO can determine the preferred manner in which to enable the organization, and the technology is not a roadblock to a preferred accounting ledger.
Automation: Different public cloud providers have different names and explanations on how exactly their services are provided, but this really comes down to getting VMs as a service. Those providers are going to manage the vCenter, the ESXi servers, and the NSX integration on their side of the world. This way, organizations do not have to worry about the hardware and all they have to do is spin out VMs. It shows up in our normal, day to day on-premises vCenter interface and we can see that integration there in one place.
With a cloud provider, all that becomes their responsibility. Many find this perk as a primary motivator to invest in this type of strategy.
Scalability (elastic workloads): This offering scales pretty high. We can get one VM on AWS to support 320 ESXi servers, for example. That's more than most people have in a production environment, so it's pretty flexible from that perspective. It is easy to set up and easy to manage. It's easy to scale up and down too. There is a four node minimum, but there's nothing to stop you from extending that. It's just as easy to go from four nodes up to 16 nodes. Maybe that's what you need to run your workload for a while, but at the end of the month when you're done you can scale it back from 16 nodes down to the four. It is absolutely easy to do that as well. Trying to do something like this in a traditional data center is nearly impossible. If you need that flexibility, you have to spend a lot of money and time going through procurement to be able to do it on-premises.
Hybrid Cloud Support: If organizations have a hybrid cloud strategy in AWS, they can have vSphere workloads and AWS workloads relatively close to each other. They can remove the cost around communicating from AWS workloads to an external internet based application. That reduces overall networking costs. This strategy provides the network optimization and locality of their data that organizations pushing a hybrid cloud strategy are seeking.
Organizations can obtain a significant amount of value from a strategy like this. For instance, an organization with consistent data usage and IT needs year round would most likely be better off with an on-premises data center and private cloud strategy. An organization with altering needs for IT capabilities might be better suited for a public cloud due to its scalability. Many retailers receive an influx of business from the holiday season. Companies also have their own offerings that boost business during certain times of the year, such as Amazon's Prime Day. In order to be able to support this extra business, they can quickly and easily scale up the amount of ESXi hosts for the needed time period. Then when that period ends and business slows to its normal pace, those organizations can scale back down the number of workloads used. Instead of paying for the maximum number of hosts year round, those extra hosts can be, in a sense, rented for the time being. This alone can save organizations millions.
We constantly hear from organizations who want to make sure their data center strategy is inclusive of hybrid cloud because this is the direction IT strategies are heading in, and we agree. If you can have it integrate with your corporate enterprise and have it as secure as your data center, why not give it a go? The toughest part is identifying the appropriate workloads to run in which part of your hybrid cloud—and that's where the sophisticated staff at WEI can help organizations on their journey to a smarter, more cost-effective IT strategy.

Laneige has recently expanded their BB (blemish balm) line, and their new addiction to the existing Laneige Snow BB Cream and Laneige Snow BB Essence Balm is the NEW Laneige Snow BB Soothing Cushion SPF 50+ PA+++ foundation.
p/s: I am quite curious why another + sign was put after SPF 50, I wonder if there is any meaning to it ?
I was invited to the blogger preview like 3 weeks back where the Laneige's International Visiting Makeup Artist Mr Steven Lee was there to share his latest tips and makeup techniques. It was an interesting session as Mr Steven himself was quite humour and was generous in sharing his tips during our hands-on session!
Each box of the Laneige Snow BB Soothing Cushion SPF 50+ PA+++ foundation comes with 2 refills of same shade and each refill carries 15g.
I am glad that Laneige introduced a total of 3 shades from brightest 21 (natural beige), 23 (sand beige) and darkest 31 (brown beige) because finally I do not need look like a ghost after applying them.
Laneige Snow BB Soothing Cushion SPF 50+ PA+++ is a BB product hat comes with a special cushion containing the BB liquid. The cushion is designed using the air pump technology. The air pump in the cushion contains bubbles that functions to disperse a thin layer of BB liquid onto the skin with just a light pat. I was told my face temperature will instantly cool by at least 3 degree celcius immediately after patting with the puff.
Laneige Snow BB Soothing Cushion SPF 50+ PA+++ comes with a special puff.
p/s: I love the mirror that comes with it too ! Foundation, puff and mirror all in a compact = perfect !
This special puff is designed to absorb less moisture than any ordinary puff so that the face stays refreshed.
Upon application, it gives the skin a refreshing soothing and cooling sensation.
Keep the puff clean at all time and gently massage it to lukewarm water with neutral detergent or puff cleanser to wash it. Rise throughly until the detergent is washed away, squeeze out moisture and dry completely in cool dry place. This way you will be able to use it for an extended period of time.
The puff and cushion are in two seperate containers to preserve the acrive ingredients ad their functionality. This product is formulated with five active ingredients namely Silymarin Bead Tree and y-PGA for a whitening and moisturizing effect, Mineral Water to provide cooling refreshing sensation to the skin, and Sun Protection ingredients.
Let me show you a comparison before and after using it. All these pictures are without any touch-up.
The recommended method of using this Laneige Snow BB Soothing Cushion SPF 50+ PA+++liquid foundation is that you must use puff to pat on our skin build up the foundation evenly.
Mr Steven said that in order to create glowing look, we should dab a bit more of Laneige Snow BB Soothing Cushion SPF 50+ PA+++ foundation on our temple, nose and cheek area.
Review : I can see Laneige Snow BB Soothing Cushion SPF 50+ PA+++ immediately brightened up my skin complexion and gave me an an even medium coverage where some of the pigmentation and spots are properly covered/hidden with just one layer of application. It wasn't sticky & actually quite long lasting after setting it with loose powder.
I put this to a try, by applying this on the morning before I went to Kuala Selangor for an outdoor activity with Tourism Selangor and after all those activities under the hot sun, I must say Laneige Snow BB Soothing Cushion SPF 50+ PA+++ foundation stays pretty well on my skin even after the outing and I could now say that it is really sweat proof!
I tried Laneige Snow BB Soothing Cushion SPF 50+ PA+++ foudation using the recommended method which is using the special puff and pat on my face my face and I did feel the cooling sensation instantly for the first few second. And when I used to apply directly with my fingers I do not feel the cooling sensation at all. Applying with the puff needs a little more of technique because the foundation that picked by the puff is not even and need keep dabbing to build up the foundation. I have master the technique of using it after a few tries and now it is so easy to apply that I am falling in love with it!
Laneige Snow BB Soothing Cushion SPF 50+ PA+++ is selling a set at RM145 with one extra refill at all Laneige's counter nationwide.
Kim : you means the refill how long will it lasts ? As long you make sure cover properly or else dry out very fast. You will get 2 refills when you purchase this. Each 15g, so total 30g .
Thanks for the review. I always want to get the new Laneige. Lots of them are coming out now but due to the price being to high I'm reluctant to get them unless I know they are good.
Wasn't really expecting such a good coverage AND lasting power from this foundation :O, definitely need to try.


It's easy to conscript SOFT MACHINE to the legions of the past – but not for nothing their torch has been carried on, for years, by SOFT MACHINE LEGACY where the old band's members tapped into the spirit of yore. Yet it would be difficult not to get rid of the last word in the ensemble's name in time for their debut's 50th anniversary. That's why the veterans' new album "Hidden Details" will be released on the same memorable date, September 8th, as "The Soft Machine" LP back in 1968. Recorded in Jon Hiseman's studio in December 2017, the follow-up to 1981's "Land Of Cockayne" features the same line-up as LEGACY's "Burden Of Proof": John Etheridge on guitar, Roy Babbington on bass and John Marshall on drums – all of them first worked together on 1976's "Softs" – plus Theo Travis on reeds.


Kenneth Robert Nance went to be with the Lord on Thursday, February 14, 2013 at the age of 71. He was born October 1, 1941 in Mt. Carmel, Illinois to her parents, M.J. "Jay" and Leona (Pike) Nance. At the age of 6 months, Ken's family moved to Oklahoma City, where he later moved next door to his future wife, Barbara. Ken and Barbara both were members of the Capitol Hill High School Class of 1959. After earning his bachelors, Ken then earned a Juris Doctorate from Oklahoma City University. Ken served in the House of Representative from 1968-1978, after which he focused on his law and lobbying practice. This year would have marked his 50th consecutive legislative session at the state Capitol. On August 31, 1963, Ken married the love of his life, Barbara Sue Hennessey and together shared nearly 50 years of marriage and raising their three boys. When Ken wasn't working, he could be found enjoying going to as many of his grandson's soccer games as he could, going out to dinner with friends (aka: 'the group'), watching his Western's and trying to get to a casino.

I took a break from watching back-to-back episodes of "Dexter," and pulled another recipe from the American Designer Cookbook. I chose Mary Ping's recipe for banana bread after reading the little blurb she contributed.
"Freshman year in college, I would bake banana bread as a break from all night paper writing sessions. It was a great way to use up the bananas, which were overripe and to fill the dorm kitchen with the best and most comforting aroma."
Though it's been a few years since I've been in school, banana bread seemed like the perfect answer to treating the gloom from the past few grey days. And like she said, it's also a great way to use up overripe bananas.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in large bowl. Beat eggs in small bowl; stir in bananas, oil, and water. Add egg mixture to flour mixture; stir until just moistened. Stir in granola and walnuts. Pour into greased pan. Bake for 55-65 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean. Cool 10 minutes; remove from pan. Cool completely on wire rack.
In a perfect world, brunch would be available for every meal. Eggs benedict, hollandaise sauce, grits, and biscuits create a meal for champions. I'd top it off with bottomless mimosas in every flavor imaginable - pomegranate, peach, strawberry... And that meal wouldn't cost more than $15.
Unfortunately, it's a dream that's still unreachable. In the meantime, I'm still in the search for a generous helping of good 'ole fashioned brunch.

B-25 Strikes Empire State
A U.S. Army Air Force B-25 Mitchell bomber crashed into the Empire State Building on Saturday July 28, 1945. Fourteen people were killed.
Flying from New Bedford, Massachusetts, to LaGuardia Airport in New York City, with two pilots and a passenger aboard, the B-25 encountered heavy fog over the New York metropolitan area and was instructed to land at Newark Airport instead.
The altered flight plan crossed over Manhattan; and the crew was specifically warned that the Empire State Building was not visible. Seeking improved visibility, the B-25 flew relatively low. Seeing the Chrysler Building in midtown, the pilot swerved to avoid the building but flew straight into the north side of the Empire State Building, near the 79th floor.
The plane's jet fuel exploded, sending flames all the way down to the 75th floor and leaving an 18 x 20 foot hole the in the building's side. One engine from the B-25 crashed through the building, landing in a penthouse across the street. Other debris struck nearby buildings. The second engine snapped an elevator cable – an emergency auto brake saved a woman from crashing to her death.
Because it was the weekend, relatively few workers were in the building. In addition to the B-25 pilot, copilot and passenger, eleven office workers died by fire or violent ejection from the building by the the crash.

Saints went back to the top of the table after a comprehensive 38-12 win over Warrington.
First half tries from Mark Percival, Louie McCarthy-Scarsbrook and Jonny Lomax answered an early Blake Austin score to make it 20-6 at the break.
Although Daryl Clark pinched one back, Saints had a tight grip and tries from Matty Lees, an eight-pointer from Regan Grace and a last one from Tommy Makinson delivered the goods.

Is there any remedy for fudge that is a little crumbly?
I have made fudge and it tastes great, very creamy but it is a little dryer on the surface and tends to crumble.
I know that if cookies become too hard you can put them along with a slice of bread in an airtight container and they will absorb the moisture and soften.
My question is does anyone know of any "fixes" for fudge?

'Undercover': Kehlani Takes Us Under The Sheets On Breezy 'SweetSexySavage' Cut!
January 5, 2017 / No Comments
Kehlani is taking us under the sheets with her first release of the new year: "Undercover"!
As SweetSexySavage creeps closer with each passing night, we've been slowly treated to reassuring tastes of what's to come along the way, from the '90's R&B-nodding "Distraction" to last month's luscious electro-ballad, "Advice."
Much like "Advice," the Charlie Heat production is a more intimate breezy affair, sitting comfortably in between the spacey next-level R&B vibes of her mixtape releases and the more mainstream urban-leaning beats of her latest outputs as she sings about forbidden love. "One way or another/ I'ma love you/ Slidin' under covers, undercover/ They don't wanna see it happen/ But we say, Fuck it," Kehlani sings on the hook.
It's nothing out of this word, but it's solid little number that gives us a deeper glimpse into what we can expect from her major label debut LP. I'm certainly here for it and whatever is set to follow. What do you guys think?

Q: Custom interaction in the PropertyGrid I have two custom classes:
class Something
{
}

and:
class SomethingElse
{
public Something newSomething {get;set;}
public String aName {get;set;}
public Image aPicture {get;set;}
//etc...
}

At the moment, when I select the class SomethingElse during runtime, it populates my PropertyGrid, showing me all my properties with their relative interactions.
Ie, where it says "aPicture" there is a textbox field and a button [...] where I can click and it opens a dialogue view window to select an image.
How can I add this functionality to my custom class? So when the propertygrid view shows newSomething it displays a textbox and a button ?
I'm completely lost with this, not even sure what/where I would need to look.
I've looked into the Image class, but I couldnt see anything obvious there.

A: The System.Drawing.Image class has a custom Editor attribute setup which defines a class that derives from the base UITypeEditor class, if you look at it with a tool such as .NET Reflector, you will see this:
[... Editor("System.Drawing.Design.ImageEditor, System.Drawing.Design, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a", typeof(UITypeEditor))...]
public abstract class Image : ...
{
   ...
}

So you can do the same with your class, like this:
[Editor(typeof(MySomethingEditor), typeof(UITypeEditor))]
public class Something
{
   ...
}

public class MySomethingEditor: UITypeEditor
{
   ...
}

You can google on "UITypeEditor" to get some samples. Here is one official one: Walkthrough: Implementing a UI Type Editor

Three postdoctoral associates begin fellowship
Fellows were selected based on the potential to secure faculty positions at the conclusion of their appointments.
Stacey Battenberg and Taryn Wobbema
Incoming first-years arenâÄôt the only new faces that will see the University of Minnesota campus this week. The three recipients of the 2009-2010 University of Minnesota Postdoctoral Fellowship began their one-year positions Tuesday. In its third year, the program offers the three scholars time and space to conduct research and gain professional experience before seeking a tenure-track position. More than 130 applicants from 57 institutions inside and outside of the United States applied for the fellowship. Of the previous five fellowship recipients, three have already gone on to professorships. Vichet Chhuon, a recipient of one fellowship, is coming to the University after graduating from the University of California- Santa Barbara because he said the diverse community surrounding the University will be a good fit for his research into immigrant children and immigrant familiesâÄô adjustment to American society. Supportive faculty in his home Department of Curriculum and Instruction also influenced his decision to come to the University, he said. Along with research, each fellow will also teach one course in the spring and participate in developmental workshops, said Noro Andriamanalina , director of the Office of Postdoctoral Affairs . This fellowship program, which comes with a $45,000 stipend plus benefits, aims to diversify the intellectual agenda of the University while supporting scholars with research and their potential as future faculty, she said. Fellowship recipient Wendy Thompson , who will work out of the History Department , said she hopes to network with faculty and create long-term scholarly relationships during her time at the University. Jarret Gupton , who was born and raised in Minnesota and a fellowship recipient, said he is excited to be part of the University community because of its emphasis on education and student support. GuptonâÄôs research in the department of organizational leadership, policy and development will focus on low-income children and access to college. âÄúI couldnâÄôt ask for a better place to be,âÄù he said.

What Is A Business Divorce: And How To Achieve One
Looking back on the celebration of Independence Day this week, one of history's most notable separations, it may be a good time for business partners who are locked in conflict to consider a business divorce. Unlike the fight to the death between the redcoats and the patriots, however, the focus of a business divorce is how to structure a separation between business partners that achieves a win-win outcome for both sides.
In its simplest terms, a business divorce refers to the process by which the owners of a private business separate from their co-owners. This Post discusses issues common to most business divorces that will be helpful for business owners to consider before they embark on this process. The perspective in the Post is from the vantage point of the minority owner seeking to negotiate favorable terms for his/her exit from the business.
One key to most successful business divorces is for both parties to approach the process with a spirit of compromise. Business divorces are not "winner take all" affairs, and a business owner determined to secure a one-sided outcome is more likely to spend time (and large sums of money) in the courthouse rather than in a conference room closing a business transaction.
The Governing Documents
As in most things, planning ahead for the negotiation of a business divorce will help in reducing the costs involved and the potential for conflicts with the majority owners. Business divorces are guided or at least, informed by the terms of the governing documents regarding the business entity at issue. Before any negotiation of a business divorce takes place the parties and their counsel need to know: (i) the ownership percentages of each of the partners, (ii) whether there are contract exit rights in any documents that govern how partners will depart from the business, (iii) if exit rights do exit, how they can or must be exercised and (iv) who controls the company's management. These exit rights are contained in some type of agreement that is often referred to as a "corporate pre-nup."
No two business divorces are the same, and the differences are often the result of what the governance and contract documents provide. Once the underlying documents are reviewed, counsel for the parties will need to evaluate the contract terms in light of the legal authorities that apply to business divorces. A discussion of these legal authorities is beyond the scope of this Post, but statutes and case law may impact the following issues that will be part of the business divorce: (i) the scope of documents available to minority partners when they request access to the company's books and records, (ii) the fiduciary duties officers, managers and directors owe to the company, and (iii) the rights of partners to call for mandatory meetings of owners and to require discussion of key items at these meetings.
In sum, the governance documents and related agreements between owners will often provide a road map for the business divorce. Unfortunately, when the governance documents are silent on exit rights and no written buy-sell or other contract was agreed to at the outset between the owners dealing with exit rights, there is much greater likelihood for legal conflict. If the minority owner has no contract right to demand a buyout by the majority owner, the minority owner may begin to look for legal claims to assert against the majority owner to obtain some leverage in the settlement negotiations with the majority owner.
The Business Goals of the Parties
The goals of the business owners are critical in structuring a business divorce, and the differences in their business objectives can lead to many different paths for the minority owner's exit from the business. Therefore, once the document review is completed, the next step for the owner and counsel is to consider the following issues before starting the negotiation process:
Does the departing owner want to retain any continuing interest in the business
Will the majority owner want the departing owner to provide a non-compete agreement and if so, on what terms (what scope and for how long)
How will the payment for the purchase of the minority interest by taxed, i.e., will it be taxed as a capital gain or will it be subject to ordinary income tax rates
Is the business close to being sold, and if so, can the minority owner secure a "true up" provision to ensure that the minority will receive an additional payment if the sale price of the business would have resulted in a larger payment for the minority interest
Are there any other rights that the majority owner will want to purchase from the minority owner in addition to the ownership interest, e.g., patent rights or other IP rights
As the foregoing points make clear, a business divorce requires the parties to take a fully holistic approach. The co-owners must consider all aspects of their current business relationship, as well as how they will deal with each other going forward.
Valuation of the Business and Minority Stake in the Company
Valuation is one of the thorniest issues to negotiate in a business divorce if the parties have not agreed on a buyout process. At the end of the day, if the parties cannot agree on a price for the minority-held interest, a sale/purchase will not take place. There are two main points of contention regarding valuation. First, the parties must agree on the total value of the business as a going concern, and second, they must also agree on whether the minority held interest will be subject to discounts and, if so, of what amount or percentage.
The two primary discounts that apply to minority-held interests are lack of marketability and lack of control, and together they can be quite significant. Retaining a valuation expert will not resolve this issue, because the expert can calculate the discounts, but will look to the parties to decide whether the discounts should be applied or whether the minority owner will receive fair value of the minority interest without applying any discounts.
The parties may nevertheless want to retain a mutually respected business valuation expert to determine the full enterprise value of the company, along with any minority discounts that could be applied. This information will then allow them to attempt to negotiate the extent to which minority discounts will apply to the minority-held interest, if at all.
Potential Legal Claims/Defenses
As noted earlier, litigation is most often involved in business divorce situations when no corporate pre-nup exists and no process is in place to govern the departure of an owner from the business. When the minority owner does not have a contractual exit right and cannot force a sale of the minority-held interest, the minority owner will consider what legal remedies exist against the majority owner. By filing a lawsuit against the majority owner, the minority owner seeks to obtain legal leverage that will lead to a purchase of the minority owner's interest.
In other posts, we have discussed the types of claims minority owners can assert against the majority owners on a derivative basis under Texas law. See: http://txbusinessdivorce.com/lawyer/2017/05/23/Business-Divorce-Disputes/Shareholder-Derivative-Claims--The-Sharp-Arrow-in-the-Quiver-Still-Available-to-Minority-Shareholders-In-Texas-Private-Companies_bl29995.htm. As these Posts explain, Texas law provides shareholders in close companies with a significant legal arrow when majority owners engage in self-dealing and breach their fiduciary duties to the company. The remedies available to minority owners include the right to recover legal fees. Tex. Bus. Orgs. Code § 21.561(b).
A well-structured business divorce permits co-owners to resolve their conflicts in a way that achieves an optimal result for both sides. Getting to a win-win outcome, however, requires the owners to accept that some compromise is better than remaining locked in a prolonged, and unresolved conflict. As just one example, a majority owner who staunchly refuses to purchase the minority owner's interest at any price is keeping a disgruntled partner as a co-owner, who will continue to disrupt the business. Moreover, as the business appreciates in value over time, the minority owner will ultimately benefit from the majority owner's devotion to the business when the business is sold or a merger takes place, but without having put in any time or made any contribution to enhance the company's value.
In Texas parlance, for a business divorce to be successful both parties have to accept this well known fact: pigs get fat and hogs get slaughtered.
Agree on a Exit Plan in Advance.

Q: An Event Handler when Close Button is clicked in windows form I was wondering if there are any event handlers if the user clicked the close button in a windows form. My initial plan was when the user clicked the close button, it will return a boolean to the caller or whoever called that form. for example
public void newWindow(){

      NewForm nw = new NewForm();
      nw.ShowDialog();
      if(nw.isClosed){
       do something
   }

}

is that possible?

A: If you are using .ShowDialog(), you can obtain a result via the DialogResult property.
public void newWindow()
{
    Form1 nw = new Form1();
    DialogResult result = nw.ShowDialog();
    //do something after the dialog closed...
}

Then in your click event handlers on Form1:
private void buttonOk_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
     this.DialogResult = DialogResult.OK;
}

private void buttonCancel_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
     this.DialogResult = DialogResult.Cancel;
}

If you do not want to open the new form as a dialog, you can do this:
public void newWindow()
{
    Form2 nw = new Form2();
    nw.FormClosed += nw_FormClosed;
    nw.Show();
}

void nw_FormClosed(object sender, FormClosedEventArgs e)
{
    var form = sender as Form2;

    form.FormClosed -= nw_FormClosed; //unhook the event handler

    //you can still retrieve the DialogResult if you want it...
    DialogResult result = form.DialogResult;
    //do something
}

A: You should take a look at the FormClosing Event or since you are using ShowDialog you can do something like this. You can also change the DialogResult that is returned in the FormClosing Event.
DialogResult dr = nw.ShowDialog();
if (dr == DialogResult.Cancel)
{
    //Do Stuff
}

A: You're almost there!
You don't need the if(nw.isClosed), the line do something will only get executed when nw will be closed
If you need to 'return' a value from that dialog, know this: The dialog is not immediatly released when you close it. So you can do something like this:
NewForm nw = new NewForm();
nw.ShowDialog();
var x = nw.Property1

Good Samaritan Thwarts Safeway Carjacking of 75-Year-Old Woman
When three female suspects assaulted an elderly woman and tried to steal her car Thursday night, a fellow Safeway shopper literally jumped onto the car to stop the caper.
The recent Bay Area pattern of targeting elderly victims for theft and violent crime saw another such incident last Thursday night, albeit this one with a little happier an ending than most. A KGO report today describes how shortly after 5 p.m. last Thursday at an SF Safeway location, a 75-year-old woman was the intended target of an assault and carjacking — but a fellow shopper halted the theft by intervening, and gave the suspects enough of a scare that they fled.
The Safeway is not specifically identified in the report, though it's clearly the store at Cabrillo Avenue and Seventh Avenue. The good Samaritan describes that he saw an elderly woman being attacked, and the three assailants have taken her purse and keys to her red Lexus. Upon the attackers trying to drive the car away, the fellow who intervened smashed the back window of the Lexus, which was apparently enough to get the would-be thieves to abort the mission. (And ironically, they rush to an apparent accomplice lookout vehicle, which drives off without them.)
"I'm walking across the parking lot and I see this old woman being dragged across by her head, these girls are punching her and kicking and stomped on," the unidentified good samaritan told KGO. "But I just punched through the back window and it was loud. It was loud enough and kind of scary enough to freak them out."
Neither the victim nor the intervening party is identified, though the fellow who intervened does give an on-screen Zoom-style interview to KGO. We see from his backdrop that he is a Bernie supporter, and the report does otherwise detail that he's a recent college graduate and apparently an almond milk drinker, because that's what he dropped during the melee. The victim was happy enough that she didn't ask to be compensated for the smashing of her car's rear window.
But given that carjackings have been an issue of recent, anyone with information on this incident is encouraged to contact the anonymous SFPD tip-line at 415-575-4444, or text a tip to TIP411.

Announcement from David Naylor-Leyland, Chairman of telent
The Board and Shareholders of telent are united in their sadness over the sudden death of the Company's CEO Mark Plato, announced last week. To many within telent he was more than an inspirational CEO, he was a friend and mentor.
Sad as it is, the company must now plan for the future and with this in mind the Board has asked Frank McKay, a Non-Executive Director of telent since 2011, to move into an executive role as CEO. Frank has a wealth of experience having worked all over the world for Rockwell and been CEO of Travis Perkins and Brakes.
Mark's legacy to telent is the ethos that he built of putting the well-being of our customers and employees at the forefront of every decision we make. I and everyone within telent will be determined to maintain that ethos in tribute to Mark.
We are very fortunate to have a Director of Frank McKay's experience on the Board ready to assume the CEO's responsibilities. I would like to thank Heather Green and the rest of the executive team for the way they have ensured our work for customers has not been impacted by Mark's untimely death, and Frank McKay for agreeing to take on the additional responsibility at this sad time.

Home Economy SNC-Lavalin will be the primary contractor for a project to transmit hydro-Quebec electricity to New York.
SNC-Lavalin will be the primary contractor for a project to transmit hydro-Quebec electricity to New York.
Cory Weinberg Apr 28, 2022 0 Comments
The Hydro-Quebec electric transmission line, which will carry 10.4 terawatt hours from New York to Quebec facilities for 25 years, will be SNC-Lavalin's primary contractor for the U.S. portion of the Sampline Hudson Power Express project.
The Montreal-based engineering firm will oversee the technical supervision and integration of the design of cables to conduct hydroelectricity at high voltage direct current (HVDC) and converter. The value of the contract was not disclosed.
The Sampline Hudson Power Express project has about 545 km of underground transmission line, of which more than half will be installed underwater. Ultimately, it will provide 10.4 terawatt-hour electricity for 25 years, or almost 20% of the U.S. metropolitan electricity needs.
The transmission line will start at the Hertel station on the south coast of Montreal, cross the United States under Lake Champlain and then travel south, connecting to a converter station in Astoria, Queens, New York. The deal will bring the state-owned company $ 30 billion in revenue.
In mid-April, Hydro-Quebec received a green light from New York Public Utilities Commission officials to implement the project in the United States. Transmission Developers, the US partner of a state-owned company, is the final step south of the border to begin construction of the track in the summer of 2022.
Oversees Hydro-Quebec work, extending more than 58 kilometers from the Hertel substation in La Prairie to the U.S. border, to an area within Quebec. The state-owned company is awaiting approval from the governments of Quebec and Canada and hopes to start work on this side of the border by spring 2023.

SNC-Lavalin specializes in designing high voltage direct current (HVDC) technologies that are preferred for long distance transport, used in submarine and underground cables.
Dale Clark, Chief Engineering Officer, SNC-Lavalin, Canada, said in a statement that "the project will be implemented directly through the HVDC Center of Excellence in Montreal, Canada."

Kavanaugh has long repeated he "was not involved" in US torture policy, and technically he was not authorized even to know about it. "I don't recall having any conversations with Brett about torture," Gonzales has said. But of course he knew something about it; everyone knew something, if only by watching CNN in January of 2002 as masked US soldiers met prisoners from Afghanistan coming off a plane in Guantanamo—orange jumpsuits, manacles, turquoise hoods over their faces. The men had been chained to the plane for 8,000 miles. We know Kavanaugh was involved in at least one heated discussion about denying detainees legal representation. He is not reported to be among those who got heated, and years later on the federal bench, he would deny a habeas corpuspetition from a Guantanamo prisoner in Bihani v. Obama (flouting the Court on which he hopes to sit in the process by arguing that the US government has no obligations under international law that haven't been codified by domestic statute).

Q: Which kind of additional cleanup may be required after removing manually added entries from /etc/hosts? My system is "Unable to resolve" removed entry from /etc/hosts.
During development, I needed to add the custom domain entry to /etc/hosts, stating it resolves to 127.0.0.1. This mapping worked fine.
After I have finished with it and removed the entry, now I see error messages from different tools that claim this my custom name cannot be resolved any longer. Seems that every Java program that attempts to get the local host address is now crashing. I tried to reboot the machine, did not help.
To make possible to work again, I have returned my custom naming to /etc/hosts. Which cleanup is required to get rid of it completely?

A: What isn't in /etc/hosts or registered with DNS, cannot be resolved (nothing stays defined, so removing the lines from this file is all you need to remove the names).
/etc/hosts should always exist at least to set the localhost entry. Usually, a default file contains
127.0.0.1               localhost.localdomain   localhost
::1                     localhost.localdomain   localhost

or something similar. You can add more than one name to any ip if you want.
In short, this file should contain exactly what you need to resolve, but isn't a registred DNS domain. If your custom name isn't a DNS name, you shouldn't remove it if you still want to use it.


Good morning! Dr. Phil says "sometimes you have to behave your way to success." Truer words were n'er spoken. A challenge when you're transitioned to something newer, better, or richer is to claim that space. I don't want to make a feminist statement here as some sister-friends out there may get offended, so I'll use myself. I won't say women struggle with feelings that threaten their new reality. I won't say that. Instead, I'll say that I do. Sometimes I wake up feeling alive and ready to take on the world. Other days, like today, it's tough to roll out of bed. Although I'm 100% working for myself as of April 1, 2013 - best April Fool's Day not-a-joke EVER - I'm not use to it. There are times when my old mindset interlopes.
Historically, the times I worked for myself were usually short lived. When the project, assignment or contract ended, I'd do the normal thing. Look for a "real job." Over the years, I started to regard those periods of subcontracting as merely a creative solution to being "between real jobs." My side hustle. Now, what was "between" is the real job.
There are days I'm hormonal. My emotions are all over the place. Not an excuse, a fact. Matter of fact, I've had a resurgence of night sweats and hot flashes even with wearing the Vivelle dot patch. Yuck! They're not as intrusive as before, but something to deal with nonetheless. Unlike the hot flashes that make you want to jump in a tub of ice cold water, mine are more of a feverish feeling that comes over me and leaves a film of oily, clammy and just plain ole icky. I tend to be more clumsy during this time. The past couple of days have been a struggle. Today, I awakened feeling drained and clammy. First thought that greeted me, "I hate to go to work today!"
Working for myself is God's answer to my prayer for fulfillment. Every day, I am so grateful! I've only known this kind of fulfillment once - as a mother. I know I am exactly where I am suppose to be. So why do I still have thoughts as if I'm still an employee? Simple. My brain hasn't caught up yet. "I hate getting up to go to work!," has to be reminded that those days are over.
No I don't rebuke the devil. It's not him...lol. I simply have to remind my brain of what is. "I will spend time with my client, render agreed upon services, and come home." That's it. I'm no longer having to go to work. In fact, the way the contract is written, my company can hire someone else to do the bookkeeping whenever I choose to.
So this is my Sound of Success takeaway. It's easy to forget that we're in a new place after a bad night sleep or a "day off" or a night sweat. That's when we have to be most assertive with ourselves of what is lest we adopt a drudgery that doesn't belong in our now. I am no longer an employee. I am an independent contractor doing business my way. I call the shots for my own life. For me, that is absolute freedom! This is how I keep my joy and enthusiasm. Successful people tell themselves the truth about who they are and where they are.

Seven Saints of Marrakesh
'Saints' in Morocco have a very different interpretation than those in Europe. In Morocco saints can be ordinary people who had a lifetime of 'doing good'. Saints can be either rich or poor, educated or uneducated, employed or unemployed, living within a home or homeless. They are considered to have ' lights of guidance because of the blessings that Allah showered upon them'.
The whole notion of wandering saints in Morocco fascinated me when I first visited Morocco. A vision of marabouts walking the countryside, giving solace to the poor and medicinal aid to the unwell, and then eventually dying and having a tomb built over their resting place was intriguing. Further reading, predominantly Realm of the Saint : Power and Authority in Moroccan Sufism by Vincent J Cornell has replaced that idea with a more accurate picture of what the evidence suggests; Moroccan 'saints' had a spiritual role, that of "substitute of the prophets" (known as walaya), though not entirely representative of traditional Islamic interpretation . Their other role comprised that of political and local 'fixers' (wilaya), settling disputes and often representing the poor against rapacious Shas and tribal chiefs, treading a delicate line between influencing powerful landowners and doing what was possible for the disadvantaged.
Many were fortunate enough to travel and enjoy a good education, spending time either in el Andalus or the wider Islamic community, before returning and living a life of relative isolation, though often within a Sufi social and spiritual framework of a specific community. Rarely did they 'wander' across Morocco.
Another representation of Moroccan Saints is that provided by Michael Sugich in his Signs on the Horizons : Meetings with Men of Knowledge and Illumination book, where he ascribes 'sainthood' to people he has met throughout his lifetime who appear to have spiritual insight, power or authority. It is a fascinating account how impressions of great spirituality can often be conveyed by mere presence and silence, and in the most unlikely of people and situations.
During several visits to Marrakech I had wanted to visit the shrines of the Seven Saints of Marrakesh but never did so; I had several free days at the end of my last visit in May and decided to locate them.
Marrakesh is often known as the city of Sabatou Rijal, which literally means "seven men". Its translation into English has become distorted into the "seven saints". The seven men of Marrakesh are recognised as 'awlya' (plural of Wali); an Arabic word that refers to people who Allah has blessed with a special significance among Muslims.
Marrakesh is home to the graves of over 200 awlya; Moulay Ismail ibn Sharif ( 1672–1727 and second ruler of the Alaouite dynasty ) established the pilgrimage to the tombs of the seven saints in the 17th century as a direct response to existing rites and pilgrimages in Essaouira, several hours away on the Atlantic coast. There the Regraga tribe, considered to be those people who introduced Islam to the region, were believed to contain a spiritual force called baraka.
However Regraga also referred to a pilgrimage, existing still today, made annually each spring and lasting 40 days where pilgrims visit a series of local shrines of Saints around Essaouria, stopping at each shrine on the way. A holy tent made of fan palm fibres and dyed with henna is erected and a muqaddim (religious leader) riding a white horse joins the celebration.
Moulay Ismail desired something similar in Marrakech and chose the seven men ( saints ) as a similar pilgrimage. From that time Moroccans from all walks of life have visited the graves of the seven saints in Marrakesh to remember their lives and teachings. They are drawn to the idea that visiting these graves could heal their diseases, help them fulfill their wishes, and for spiritual sustenance.
I was aware that I, as a non-muslim, probably could not enter the mauseleums where each body was buried, or memory maintained, but that did not deter me. In fact I was permitted to enter only one of the mauselums, that of Cadi Ayyad Ben Moussad. The mauseleum of Imam Souheili can only be reached through a muslim cemetery, and the police guarding that cemetery would not let me enter the cemetery to approach nor even photograph the green roofed building across the tombs. The photograph here I have 'borrowed' from another website also describing the pilgrimage. Youths playing football outside of Sidi Ben Slimane did not like my presence and immediately politely told me ( not asked me ) to leave. I returned to this site several times but again my presence was not wanted by young men at the shrine and I was encouraged, on one occasion with some animosity, to depart.
The Sacred Footstep's website, from where I borrowed the photograph of Imam Souheili, suggests an etiquette to follow when visiting the tombs, and this is as follows :
When you enter a mosque where a saint is buried, perform two rak'at (cycles of prayer) with the intention of greeting the mosque.
Visit the grave of the khalifah (successor) first and then the wali. [If his grave is also there].
Stand outside the grave in humility.
Read surat al-Fatiha (once), astighfirullah (11 times), la ilaha illallah (11 times), surat al-Ikhlas (11 times), the last two surahs of the Qur'an (once each), surat al-Sharh (7 times), surat Ya-Seen (once), surat al-Mulk (once).
Gift the reward of what you have read to the Prophet ﷺ, his family, the wali you are visiting and all other awliya.
Make d'ua (supplication) and ask Allah for all your needs.
Give charity to people around the grave because they are under the protection of the wali.
The pilgrimage is traditionally undertaken in the following order :
Sidi Youssef Ben Ali -> Tuesday
Cadi Ayyad -> Wednesday
Sidi Bel Abbès -> Thursday
Sidi Ben Slimane -> Friday
Sidi Abdelaziz Tebbaâ -> Saturday
Sidi Abdellah El Ghazouani -> Sunday
Imam Souheili -> Monday
The Seven Saints of Marrakesh
( Some of this information has been taken from here )
Sidi Youssef Ben Ali
His full name was Abou Yaacoub Ben Ali Assenhaji. He was born in Marrakesh and never left it all his life. He was nicknamed "Moul L Ghar", or the "Cave Man". When he was still young, he was afflicted with leprosy and would lose parts of his body, causing people flee from him in fear of contracting the disease. His family, on the other hand, expelled him out of fear of the virus. Afterwards, he went to live in a cave in a deserted place near Marrakesh.
Locals expected him to die any moment, but Sidi Youssef Ben Ali surprised them all and survived for a long time. People started talking about his power to resist hunger and disease, and they began visiting him in the cave to receive guidance and help them solve their problems.
Death: 1196 (593 in Hegira).
Buried: Bab Ghmat
Sidi Youssef bin Ali
Cadi Ayyad Ben Moussad
Qadi Iyad ibn Musa was born in 1083 in Ceuta, then belonging to the Almoravid Empire. He was the great imam of that city and, later, a high judge in Granada. As a scion of a notable scholarly family, Iyad was able to learn from the best teachers Ceuta had to offer.
Qadi Iyad benefited from the high number of scholars in al-Andalus, the Maghrib, and the eastern Islamic world. He became a prestigious scholar in his own right, and won the support of the highest levels of society.
He died in 1149 and buried in Marrakesh near Bab Aïlen
Born in Ceuta in 1129, Belabbas Ahmed Sebti is the most important of the Seven Saints, and is sometimes referred to as the Patron Saint of Marrakech.
It's been said that his father died when he was still a teenager, and then his mother sent him to work. However, his obsession with his studies prompted him to occasionally escape his work in order to attend the classes of Sheikh Abi Abdellah Mohamed Lfakhar in the mosque.
His mother, on the other hand, kept punishing him and sending him back to work, until the Sheikh intervened and suggested giving his mother money in order to let her child study.
Sidi Bel Abbas was a great patron of the poor and particularly the blind in the twelfth century. Even today, food for the poor is distributed regularly at his tomb.
He died in 1204 and is buried at Sidi Marouk cemetary, near Bab Taghzout.
Sidi Bel Abbas (Abu al-Abbas) al-Sabti
Sidi Ben Slimane
Also known as: Sidi Mohammed ben Slimane ben Said al Jazouli.
Abu Abdullah Muhammad al Jazuli was born in a village called Jazoula in Sous Massa Daraa in the 15th century. Nobody knows the exact year of his birth. Historians say he descended from Ali Ibno Abi Talib.
Imam al-Jazouli is better remembered as a character of legend rather than a real human being. "Imam al-Jazuli", was a Moroccan Sufi leader of the Berber tribe of the Jazulah. He is best known for compiling the Dala'il al-Khayrat, an extremely popular Muslim prayer book. The book is divided into 7 sections for each day of the week.
In June 1465, he collapsed and died while performing his Subh prayer. Because of the suddenness of his death, it was rumored that he was poisoned. His body was buried near Essaouira. Seventy-seven years after his death, his body was exhumed to be transferred to Marrakech where rests at the zaouïa Jazoulia in the north end of the medina, near Dar-el-Glaoui.
Sidi Ben Slimane (Shaykh Muhammad ibn Sulayman al-Jazuli)
Sidi Abdelaziz Tebbaâ
Also known as: Abou Fares Abdelaziz.
Sidi Abd El Aziz was a fifteenth century theologian. His mausoleum is very near to Rue Baroudiyine, a short walk from Marrakesh Riad Cinnamon.
He was born in Marrakesh, and was illiterate during his youth. However, he later made a name for himself in Fez at the Medersat el Attarine, where he was the spiritual successor of Imam el Jazouli.
He died in 1508 and was buried in Marrakesh. It is a local tradition for women to visit his grave, drawn to the idea that he can heal their fertility and facilitate childbirth.
He is buried near Ben Youssef Mosque.
Sidi Abdellah El Ghazouani
Also known as: Moul El Ksour
Origins: Originally from the Gazoune tribe.
After having completed his studies in Fes, he went on to study in Grenada, before relocating to Marrakech to complete his training under Sidi Abdelaziz Tabaa. Sultan Sidi Mohamed Cheikh incarcinated him in Marrakech, jealous of his positive reputation with the people. He was freed several years later.
Death: 1528 (934 in Hegira)
Buried: He's buried near Mouassine Mosque.
Sidi Abdullah al-Ghazwani
Imam Souheili
Imam Abderahim Souhaili was born blind in 1114 near Malaga. He grew up in a poor, but religious and well-educated family. His father taught him Arabic and helped him memorize the Quran. Afterwards, he was taught other sciences by the famous scholars of that time, in Malaga and other cities in Andalusia.
Yacoub El Mansour brought him to Marrakech from Spain. He's known for his Sufi poetry and his openness during a time of strong religious censureship. Students often gather around his grave. He's written two masterpieces: one about the names of the Prophets cited in the Koran and the other a biography of Sidna Mohammed.
He died in 1185 in Marrakesh, and was buried in Bab er Robb, a southern gate of the city of Marrakesh, near Bab Agnaou.

Expired DCPS mask mandate still playing out in court
Coach: McCaffrey out 'a few weeks' with hamstring injury

CHARLOTTE, N.C. – The injury bug has bitten running back Christian McCaffrey again.
Panthers coach Matt Rhule said Friday that the 2019 All-Pro running back is expected to miss "a few weeks" with a strained hamstring. Rhule said the injury could sideline McCaffrey up to four weeks, but said he doesn't know at this point if McCaffrey will go on injured reserve.
"They are still doing a bunch of diagnostic testing so I can't tell you if that is one, two, three or four weeks," Rhule said Friday on a Zoom call. "Obviously Christian will decide the best course of action for him getting back as soon as possible."
The news isn't as good for rookie cornerback Jaycee Horn, who has three broken bones in his foot and could miss the remainder of the season. Rhule said Horn and his family will decide after further consulting with doctors what the best course of action, but it's clear he won't be back anytime soon.
"I can't tell you at this point if that is season ending or not," Rhule said.
Rhule also said safety Juston Burris has a groin injury, but it hasn't been determined how much time he will miss.
McCaffrey was injured in Carolina's 24-9 win over the Houston Texans on Thursday night when he pulled up after making a stutter step while running a sweep play on the team's third possession. He had 31 yards on seven carries, but did not return.
Rookie Chuba Hubbard is expected to take over for McCaffrey as the starter, while Royce Freeman will also see carries. Hubbard ran for 52 yards on 11 carries against the Texans, while Freeman had five carries for 17 yards.
This is yet another frustrating injury for McCaffrey, who hasn't been able to consistently stay on the field since becoming only the third player in NFL history to gain 1,000 yards rushing and receiving in the same season.
He missed 13 games last season with separate injuries.
McCaffrey was off to another solid start this season for the unbeaten Panthers with 201 yards rushing on 52 carries and one touchdown, along with 16 receptions for 163 yards. The team counts on him to set up the play-action passing game.
Quarterback Sam Darnold said McCaffrey was "sad" after the game.
"He's a special player," Darnold said. "I don't know if there is any way to describe him. He's someone who can align anywhere and I think the greatest way to to see how great a player is, is by how the defense game plans for them. When Christian is out there you can see when he starts to line up in different ways that defenses have certain checks for him when he's out there. That's the sign of a really good player."
The Panthers play at Dallas on Oct. 3.
Horn, the first defensive player selected in this year's NFL draft, suffered broken bones in his foot while back-peddling in a non-contact play against the Texans. He fell to the ground and immediately signaled for help from the trainers.
The Panthers feel Horn has the physical and mental makeup to be a shutdown cornerback in the league and rookie had already made his mark in the first two weeks of the season as a starter.
"I hate losing players," Rhule said. "It breaks your heart."
A.J Bouye or Rashaan Melvin is expected to take his place in the starting lineup. Bouye hasn't played this season yet after missing two games while serving a suspension. He was held out of the Texans game.
Burris started 13 games last season for the Panthers and had 53 tackles and one interception.

Former State Senator Al Coppola has endorsed Mark Grisanti, throwing the Democratic Party organization into disarray — instigating feverish bickering among top party operatives.
Coppola, a long retired eleder statesman in local Democratic politics, nearly defeated Marc Panepinto (the party's curiously endorsed candidate) in the primary. He came only 383 votes short, which indicated a Panepinto's weakness and lack of support from the party organization.
Grisanti is expected to garner nearly as many Democratic party voters as Panepinto, whose floundering campaign has been dogged by criticisms relating to his 2001 conviction for election fraud, and his later participation in a 2006 election fraud scheme. His no bid legal work for the Poloncarz Administration, however, has nearly avoided scruitny.
Now — with the Coppola faction of the Democratic party breaking away from the Panepinto faction — it's expected that each candidate will break the liberal vote evenly, giving former Prosecutor Kevin Stocker an easy win with his Republican nomination.
Stocker has strong support among Independent and moderate voters — and especially strong support among pro-gun Democrats and Republicans. Rumor has it that Stocker is way ahead in internal polling; though Panepinto has seemed to gain considerable ground ahead of incumabt Mark Grisanti.
The polling also shows that Republican voters have been flocking to Stocker, 9-to-1, which could indicate that Grisanti's reelection is no longer viable.
The sentiment among most Democratic party political operatives has been one of exasperation and annoyance. Many are fed up with both Panepinto and Grisanti and are choosing to stay home. The party's guberantorial candidates' Cuomo and Hochul have been besieged by corruption allegations, which makes it difficult to motivate the rank-and-file.
Panepinto exaccerbated negative sentiments earlier this cycle when he sought to oust the current Democratic Party Chairman Jermey Zellner rather than unite the party, after winning the primary contest. Then came the allegations of sexual harrassment and payroll discrepancies by former staffers and volunteers.
Many party activists have called on Panepinto to step aside, and even the Buffalo News says that his election fraud conviction should disqualify his candidacy.
(BUFFALO NEW YORK) Former New York State Senator Al Coppola today condemned a mail piece sent to residents of the 60th Senate District by VOTE-COPE, the political arm of New York State United Teachers, and called on State Senate candidate Marc Panepinto to come clean on the mailer.
The mail piece, which depicted a battered woman, was aimed at incumbent Senator Mark Grisanti, Panepinto's opponent in the upcoming election on November 4th. Widely condemned across party lines, the mail piece falsely accused Grisanti of failing to enact legislation to protect women and women's rights.
Coppola, whose wife was a long-time teacher, said his wife and her colleagues would be sickened by the mail piece depicting the face of a battered woman if she were alive today.
Coppola believes Mark Grisanti is the most honest and trustworthy candidate in the 60th Senate District race, and is encouraging voters across all party lines to support Grisanti.
Who will fill Mark Grisanti's Senate Seat?
Perhaps this year's most exciting election will be held in the State Senate's 60th district, the seat now held by Mark Grisanti. In all, six candidates are vying for the nominations of five parties. This is how it brakes down.
