Keep Calm, World Cup will be back on Friday. Check Current Situation and Schedule here!
Quarterfinals begin this Friday with France vs Germany!
The Round of 16 was certainly full of Drama. Did the big teams underestimate the skill set of the underdogs?! Nevertheless the favourites still made it through but it took 2 games with Penalty shoot outs and 3 games that went into Overtime out of 8 games total. Wow! Definitely a World Cup to remember.
What a weekend! Check out how the World Cup is going here!
What an action packed weekend with football!
The Maracana dream was kept alive for Brazil, Netherlands and Costa Rica who had close encounters with their opponents with even 2 of the matches consisting of Penalty shoot outs. Painful losses for Chile, Mexico and Greece, as their World Cup is now over.
The dream was also kept alive for Columbia that cruised to victory sending Uruguay home with 2 goals by James Rodriguez, of which the first is arguably the best goal in the World Cup so far. He was even trending on Google Circles and is certainly one to watch.
The excitement continues today with France vs Nigeria and Germany vs Algeria.
Updated Scores for World Cup 2014!
Columbia has advanced to the knockout stage with their victory over the Ivory Coast and the Japan vs. Greece draw in Group C. The World Cup futures of Japan and Greece depend on their must win final match to have a chance of surpassing Ivory Coast into second place. Both teams only have one point after a scoreless draw today.
Wayne Rooney ties for 4th in England goal standings after he scored his first goal in the World Cup finals against Uruguay. He has tied with Michael Owen on 40 goals. But it was not enough. Luis Suarez played one of his best games ever and scored 2 goals for Uruguay, still giving them a glimmer of hope. Group D is one to watch to see how this all plays out.

Building an Effective Website for Law Firms | Get the Latest Online Marketing Trends in Web Design, Social Media, Blogging, and More.
Have you looked at your traffic stats lately?
If you answer that question with, “What traffic stats?” then we need to have a talk.
It’s not enough to build a website anymore. You need a definite marketing strategy, and part of that strategy is building a website for law firms that gives searchers what they’re looking for. How do you do that? Let’s take it step by step.
What Goes into a website for Law Firms?
Your website is your digital “face.” You want it to look as professional as your practice. You don’t need a lot of bells and whistles, but what you do need is a responsive and accessible design that clearly directs potential clients to their areas of interest.
It’s not just desktops. People using phones and tablets to access the Internet passed 50 percent in October 2016. Internet usage worldwide is trending mobile while desktop access continues to decline from nearly 100 percent in October 2009 to just under 49 percent in October 2016. Making your site mobile friendly also makes it more appealing to Google, which now emphasizes mobile over everything else.
Solid SEO. Search engine optimization is a continually evolving specialty. Periodically Google alters its search engine rules to screen out certain types of content and elevate others. There is no set it and forget it as SEO, and people need you to have accurate SEO parameters in order to find your website. It’s not just enough to be “estate planning lawyer Florida” when you need to be “Fort Lauderdale Broward County estate planning elder law attorney. ” Those long keywords are tasty and attractive, and get much more interest from the web bots, and can put you on to that wanted first page of results.
Clean aesthetics. Making use of aesthetically pleasing graphics, readable text, and white space means that your website has a clean and professional look. Minimalist design also helps it load more quickly in order to keep the searcher on your site and looking deeper. Load times directly relate to conversions with longer load times leading to increases in page abandonment. In other words, if you don’t speed it up it’s more than likely that your potential client will go to a competitor’s website.
A/B testing. A/B testing is simply a method by which your web designer will test which site is more appealing to your clients. You want the one that gives you the most conversions where the clients click deeper into your website when they find the information that they’re looking for.
If you’re thinking this is a little out of your specialty, don’t worry. 4 Step Studio can help you with everything from web design and SEO to social media presence and digital web campaigns. We are an experienced and versatile company that has lots of experience designing effective websites for law firms. Contact us today to find out how we can help boost your Internet presence, reach local people looking for your services, and deliver a professional and intuitive website that will look good on everything from a smartphone screen to a desktop monitor.

text: Abstract : Class hierarchies are commonly used to reduce the complexity of the classification problem. This is crucial in situations when one has to deal with multiple categories. In this work, we evaluate the suitability of class hierarchies currently constructed for visual recognition. We show that top-down as well as bottom-up approaches that are commonly used to automatically construct hierarchies, incorporate assumptions about separability of classes that cannot be fulfilled in the case of visual recognition of a large number of object categories. We propose a modification which is appropriate for most top-down approaches. It allows to construct better class hierarchies that postpone decisions in the presence of uncertainty and thus provide higher recognition accuracy. We also compare our method to flat one-against-all approach and show how to control the speed-for-accuracy trade-off by using our method. For the experimental evaluation, we use the Caltech-256 visual object classes dataset and compare to the state-of-the-art.

I used to think of myself as "Lawful Good", as much as any messy human being can have an actual D&D alignment. They say as you grow older, you get more conservative.

We feel like we're losing, but in a shorter time than anyone imagines, what we want will be the way the world is. And it will be time for the new radicals to fight their fights, which they will also win.

The world of tech is changing. Consumers of enterprise technology have voted with their wallets. They are concerned with the lack of return on investment for their infrastructure technology expenditures. They are frustrated with the ever-increasing complexity of their IT solutions driven by the rise in software centricity and network dependency.
One of the toughest gigs in a company today is being a leader of an IT organization. Their CapEx budgets are shrinking. Their training budgets are shrinking. Their resource budgets are shrinking. Their technical skills are aging. They are losing control of their ability to dictate to the enterprise what solutions they are to use.
For example, if a sales vice president doesn’t care for their current sales management and reporting tool, they can simply use their budget to procure a software as a service (SaaS) solution such as salesforce.com. If IT doesn’t like it―tough. On top of that, IT still has to manage the underlying network that the cloud application traverses to get to the end user’s desktop.
If the end user has an issue they call IT for help. To further exacerbate the issue, end users are bringing their own devices into the workplace and expecting corporate applications to perform flawlessly on them. If they don’t, IT gets the call.
he net result is a withdrawal of traditional tech spending with a favor toward a consumption model where the technology purchaser can shift some of the risk―financial or operational―back to the provider of the technology.
It’s often said that a picture paints a thousand words. The below illustrations are graphical depictions of the technology market transforming right before our eyes.
There is a disturbing trend in the overall tech market that we see, as evidenced through TSIA’s Service 50 index. The Service 50 is a quarterly snapshot of the revenue and profitability performance of the technology industry. TSIA aggregates the financial performance of these 50 companies from the public record. We identify service revenue and profitability trends, and provide critical observations based on the current quarterly update of 50 of the largest global providers of technology services.
There is a major trend of overall technology revenues declining. This is followed by two minor trends: The product revenues, hardware and software, are declining. The services revenues have been growing. According to TSIA benchmark analysis, the fastest-growing service line among professional services, education services, support services, field services,and managed services is managed services.
These trends support the overall theory of a shift in buying behaviors for technology solutions with managed services being the most desired technology procurement model. These are the trends that were predicted the leading-edge tech business books Consumption Economics: The New Rules of Tech, and the basis of the assertions in B4B: How Technology and Big Data Are Reinventing the Customer-Supplier Relationships.
The net result is that many companies are now starting to realize that a managed service play is no longer a “nice to have” part of the portfolio. It is a requirement and critical to the long-term health and evolution of a technology company.
If you currently do not have a strategy for a managed services offering, it is time to start considering one. If you already have a managed services offering, it is critical to understand where you are compared to your peers and the industry. The world of managed services is rapidly evolving, with powerful solutions being offered by manufacturers, service providers, system integrators, and value-added resellers alike.
TSIA’s Managed Services Discipline is helping managed service providers understand the key practices that are driving the best business results through market research and benchmark analysis. Contact a TSIA member success manager today to find out how we can help you make this journey, whether building a managed services business from scratch or revamping and modernizing your current managed services offers, operations, and go-to-market models.
George Humphrey, is the vice president of research, Managed Services, for TSIA. He is a networking and communications industry veteran of over 20 years with extensive experience in managed infrastructure and application services. Throughout his career, he has held several leadership positions in managed services, including global strategy, product line management, marketing, operations, and client management.

What is microchipping in dogs?
A “microchip” (also known as an “ID chip”, “identichip”, or technically a “coded subcutaneous transponder”) is a small electronic device, about the size of a grain of rice, that is implanted under the skin, usually between the dog’s shoulder blades. It is encoded with a unique number, and when scanned with a special reader, it broadcasts that number for the reader to display. The ID number can then be looked up on a database, so the dog’s keeper and address can be found.
Vets have been using microchips for years and it isn’t possible to get a Pets Passport without one, something which Animal House Vets will be happy to do. The chip doesn’t contain a power source or battery, or emit any radiation – it works by reflecting back the electromagnetic field from the reader, and embedding the code number in the reflection. They are very robust and usually last a dog’s lifetime.
Sometimes, it’s done to prove a dog’s identity for the Pets Passport; however, the most common reason is to help reunite the dog with his or her owners if they stray, become lost, or are injured. Microchips are absolutely invaluable in these situations! Dogs that get lost may roam for miles away from home before they’re found, and if there’s no way to identify them, they go to the dog pound and usually never get back to their owners.
Mark was pleased he microchipped his own Jack Russell Terrier, Bluebell. In 2013 she was stolen from his garden, eventually turning up in Swindon 9 months later. If it wasn’t for her microchip, Mark might have not been reunited with her again.
I’ve been reading about compulsory microchipping for dogs. What is it all about?
From 6 April 2016, it will be a legal requirement for all dogs the UK to have a microchip, which is registered to their current keeper (usually the owner). In England, the legislation is the Microchipping of Dogs (England) Regulations 2015; however, the devolved governments in Scotland and Wales are introducing similar legislation to start on the same date, and it is of course already the law in Northern Ireland.
The main reason these laws have been brought in is the sheer number of dogs who wander off and become separated from their owners. The cost of caring for them and trying to return them to their keepers is estimated at £33 million per year, which falls mainly on local government and welfare charities – both of which have far better uses for the money! The emotional cost to the owners and dogs is, of course, much higher – especially as, according to the Dogs Trust , less than half of all lost and stray dogs are reunited with their owner.
What happens if I don’t get my dog chipped?
Anyone whose dog is found not to be carrying a microchip, or whose microchip isn’t registered to their current keeper, will be given 21 days to get it sorted. If you don’t, you face a £500 fine. Police officers, animal wardens and other officials will be equipped with microchip scanners to check stray dogs, badly-behaved dogs, and potentially to do spot checks on dogs being walked by their owners, just as vets do now for injured strays.
Most dogs need to be microchipped by 8 weeks of age, so the breeder or retailer has to have them chipped; as the purchasers, it is your responsibility to make sure that the database is updated with your details. The fee for this is usually £10-20, but failure to do so can be much more expensive! There are a range of different databases in use, so it’s important to check which database the microchip is recorded on. Fortunately, if the breeder can’t remember, we can always scan the chip and then check who it’s registered with for you.
The only exception is for puppies who have been tail-docked and certified as a working animal – these dogs have to be chipped by 12 weeks of age.
Yes – if your dog has a health condition that means they cannot be safely microchipped, us as vets (but not you) can certify this on a government form; the government will then issue an exemption certificate. This isn’t going to affect a lot of dogs though – the main reason to avoid microchipping is in those dogs who suffer from severe clotting disorders (e.g. von Willibrand’s Disease).
Does the microchip prove ownership?
No – under the new laws, it is the dog’s keeper who is responsible for the microchip, and for the dog’s behaviour. It is therefore their details that are recorded, whether or not they are the legal owner.
What happens if a microchip goes wrong?
There are three ways a chip can go wrong; the most common is that the chip moves under the skin (called “migration”). This is pretty common, but usually they only move a few inches. Occasionally, they go much further, but usually without problems. Under the new laws, if a chip migrates so far that it is difficult to find, it is the keeper’s responsibility to have a new one inserted.
Secondly, it can simply stop working properly. This is rare, but does occur sometimes. In these cases, a new microchip is implanted, and registered to the keeper.
Finally, and most rarely of all, a chip may cause a local reaction or a haematoma (bleeding under the skin). This is very rare, but does occasionally happen, especially in dogs with mild clotting disorders. These reactions often clear up on their own, but it is important to get it checked by us.
All of these malfunctions or reactions need, by law, to be reported – normally, we will do it, using Veterinary Medicines Directorate’s Adverse Microchip Reactions system.
Any animal large enough (cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, chinchillas etc) can be microchipped. It isn’t a legal requirement, but it’s still a really good idea – it makes it far more likely you’ll find them again if they do get lost or stolen!
As we take microchipping very seriously we are pleased to offer microchipping with our nurses for just £10.00 until the end of April 2016*.
Please call us now on 0117 33 55 999 to make an appointment, so you don’t miss out on this offer.
For a great plan on routine booster vaccinations, parasite control and health checks (along with microchip, neutering, Hills pet food discounts) and much, much more please check out the Active Health Club.

After coming back to Cambodia from the United States in the early 1990's, Dr. Kao Kim Hourn concluded that there was an absolute need for a reputable university which sought to open up the world at large to the next generation of bright young Cambodians, to compensate for the depredations suffered by their parents. This required the design and implementation of programs which broadened the students' perspectives (especially necessary given the limitations of the education offered by high schools – another consequence of our recent history); to this end, he selected the American, credit-based system as a model. Furthermore, he realized that, to broaden the students' outlook, it was necessary to teach these programs in the medium of English: not only would this make them more marketable in a globalizing world, but it also expanded the pool of potential teachers, through collaborative exchange agreements with universities elsewhere in Asia and beyond.
As a result of these discussions, together with the input of his own finance and the donation of capital and books, computers, and other materials by various contributors, The University of Cambodia was established. It was officially opened by Prime Minister Samdech Techo Hun Sen on 23 June 2003. Originally located in three leased buildings just south of the Independence Monument, today the University is firmly established on over 3 hectares of land in the middle of Phnom Penh, and comprises of a state of the art building that can accommodate over 10,000 students. In additionally, on UC Phnom Penh campus contains the internationally recognized SEATV and Radio stations.

XK Engineering was established in 1981 primarily as a classic car restoration company specialising in all that is Jaguar. Over a number of years the company built on its reputation for craftsmanship and became one of the world's foremost classic Jaguar specialists with a thriving global parts sales business.
The same ideals of craftsmanship, perfection, uncompromising quality & customer care has seen XK Engineering's corporate business extend and develop into the XK Engineering of today.
Although the classic Jaguar business plays a large part in XK's success, the company's corporate services have moved into highly specialised paint spraying. From XK's motoring heritage has evolved specialist paint techniques enabling XK to undertake projects as diverse as concept cars and prototypes, limited edition prestige production vehicles, low volume niche manufacturers work, show vehicles, train body painting and more recently the painting of art pieces for both exhibitions and private collections. Our automotive clients include some of the world’s most recognised brands but the confidential nature of the work means that we must refrain from listing them individually.
Today, XK has purpose built facilities covering some 100,000 sq.ft housing state of the art, purpose built high lux spray booths, along with fully equipped body work, mechanical and fabrication shops.
In 2010, XK Engineering was the subject of a buy out by its management team who had all been with the company for more than 20 years.
Having painted some of the most challenging substrates known, XK are sure that your project could not be placed in better hands. Please contact Dave Woods for a free consultation.

We enjoy a bit of racing game action and Project Cars is brilliant, plus it is set to get even better.
The popular career mode from the chart-topping Project CARS returns for Project CARS 2 with fan-desired improvements, careful refinements and all-new features to faithfully echo the motorsport careers of real-world drivers like no other racing game.
The refinements and new additions to the solo career in Project CARS 2 have been made to both enhance the experience of the ultimate driver journey and to empower drivers with more room for progression.
Project CARS 2’s single-player career mode now spreads 29 motorsport types out over 6 Tiers and 5 unique disciplines to create a deeply engaging, challenging and satisfying solo experience. Drivers can choose to race their way up through grassroots motorsports such as Karts, Formula Rookie or Ginetta Juniors, all the way to the very top echelons of real-world-based motorsport series such as IndyCar, and the GT3-based Pirelli World Challenge, or they can simply jump straight into more advanced Tiers to enjoy shorter action-packed careers.
The core of the driver’s career in Project CARS 2 is the Tier system that has been carefully fashioned to model that encountered by real-world drivers. Drivers can choose to follow one motorsport discipline all the way from Tier 6 to Tier 1 (GT cars for instance), or jump between the 5 disciplines and race in open-wheels, GT, prototypes, rallycross, and touring cars, ensuring a depth of motorsport like no other racing game.
Also new to Project CARS 2 is the Manufacturer Drives that sees 14 of the world’s most iconic auto manufacturers: Ferrari, Porsche, Aston Martin and more…invite drivers to take a series of epic challenger events – rise to the challenge and become a fully-fledged Factory Driver. The events themselves are themed to represent classes that each manufacturer is known for, such as Nissan and its Historic Touring event, Group C prototype event and modern GT3.
The popular Invitational Events where drivers’ achievements throughout their careers unlock races that can be entered away from the normal career flow is also back but more improved. These voluntary events can now be entered at any time and drivers can play them as often as they want. These have been created to represent the variety of motorsport categories and car classes that drivers wouldn’t typically race in their core career.
Drivers will also be racing for Trophies, Lifetime Goals and Accolades as they progress through their career, and will enjoy new and exciting ways to track their stats and achievements both online- and -off.
The career mode in Project CARS 2 has been created to be the most accurate representation of a real-world driver’s career path while tailored to meet Project CARS 2 drivers’ individual needs and desires.

It’s a long testimony, but it’s worth your time! The following was originally published in an old tract, called “The Eleventh Commandment.” Read it closely, because we will post a followup article in the days to come that will bring this testimony forward 17 years.
Here is the original testimony of Grace Wesley Everleigh, St. Ignace, Michigan.
In 1952, I started to have headaches. They became more frequent as time passed and I began having blackout spells which came without warning. My sense of balance left me and I suffered more and more with headaches. During this time I consulted our family physician frequently. He suggested I consult an Optometrist and have a thorough checkup on my eyes. This was done but the optometrist could find no connection between my headaches and my eyes. Several times our doctor suggested I go to a good clinic and have a complete physical checkup. Finally in July 1954 he told me he could do nothing for me and urged me to go to Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn. I was extremely tired all the time and the spells came more frequently. I had to quit driving our car due to the spells and impaired vision. Much of my time was spent in bed but I never seemed to get rested.
Finally in Oct. 1954 I went to War Memorial Hospital in Soo, Michigan. I spent eight days there undergoing a complete physical examination. The doctor we had while at this hospital was one I had known for years and I trusted and respected his ability. When he released me from the hospital, he also suggested I go to a clinic for diagnosis. He said he felt it was serious.
Dec. 1954 I agreed to go to Mayo Clinic. An appointment was made and I spent almost two weeks going through examinations and under observation. The final tests at the Medical Sciences building consisted of the recording of an electroencephalogram which is commonly called the brain wave test. Two or three days later I was sent back again to the Medical Sciences building where the electroencephalogram was recorded under the influence of an activating drug, the name of which is Metrazel. It was their opinion as a result of the clinical findings that I had a growth on the brain, the pressure causing me to blackout.
I returned home sick and discouraged. My husband who so often had heard me tell how Jesus Christ healed the same as in Bible days challenged me to believe God for my healing. He had never attended a church that taught Divine healing but many times I had told him about friends of mine who trusted God for everything. He was ready to believe God for my healing. He told me he would take me any place if we could only find out where there would be a meeting. I had often been told about a minister who prayed for the sick by the name of Rev. Wm. Branham. We found out he would be ministering in the Philadelphia Church in Chicago, Jan. 12, 1955.
If God would only spare my life so I could attend those meetings. My brother and wife came home from California to help and encourage us. There was also a dear saint of God who lived here while her husband was supervising work being done on the Mackinac Straits Bridge. Her name was Mrs. J. A. Hightower from Memphis, Tenn. She had been healed of a cancer so she could speak from experience. She took a special interest in me and prayed and encouraged me to trust God. Three or four of my friends would come to my home and pray for me and God would meet us in such a precious way. How I thank God for prayer warriors.
At this time I was losing a pound a day. On Jan. 10, 1955 we left our home for the Salvation, Healing meetings to be conducted in Chicago by Bro. Branham. Our neighbors thought it a foolish trip that my husband would take me such a distance in my condition. We live about 500 miles from Chicago. It took us two days to make the trip. Many times I thought death would take me before we would get to our destination.
Jan. 13 about 10 a.m. we arrived at the Philadelphia Church. My folks inquired for Bro. Branham and were told we couldn't see him until the evening service. A couple of young men who were attending the Bible School of the Church suggested that I be brought into the prayer room of the church where I could rest till the evening service. In the afternoon the dean of the college came in and seeing my condition prayed that God would spare my life until the evening service.
When the service began I was placed at the side of the altar on a cot. In my moments of consciousness I prayed God would save my husband and heal my body. It seemed I was only semi-conscious. My body felt cold and numb. Cold sweat stood out over my entire body.
After Bro. Branham had delivered his message, he called the prayer line. While he was praying for the people in the prayer line, God began to show him something. He asked the audience to be reverent. He said, 'I see a large building with a tall towering spire. This building sits in a city, the city lies in a valley. It is Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn. I see a woman who is taken to this clinic by a loved one. She comes from Michigan. She was sent home from this clinic. She has a brain disease which causes a pressure. Bro. Branham then looked around the audience and sees me on the cot and says, 'God Bless You, Sister on the stretcher, it's you. Arise, take up your bed and walk. Jesus Christ has healed you. Go home, you are well and God bless you.
As the Holy Spirit spoke through Bro. Branham I felt as though a hand was laid on my head. I could never describe how I felt. Words can't describe that touch. It was as though a cleansing fire went from top of my head through the soles of my feet. The power and presence of the Lord came upon me, strength went through my body and I was made completely whole. How I praise God for His goodness to me.
That night my husband accepted the Lord as his Savior, and it is our desire to serve Him till He calls us home.
I am writing this testimony three years after my healing and I want to thank God as I never have a headache or pain of any kind in my head. I can truly say Jesus Christ is my Savior, Healer, Baptiser and Friend. He is my all in all. It is my prayer that this testimony may help someone to trust God who does all things well.
P.S. I would like to thank Bro. Jos. Mattson Boze, pastor of the Philadelphia Church in Chicago for his kindness and words of encouragement when I needed it most. God bless him is our prayer.
Keep your eye on this website. In the days to come, we will post a testimony from a brother who met Sister Everleigh many years later.

Hello Everyone! Hope you are alright So I have had ARK for a while but to be honest I have never ever played it and whenever I spawn I just get eaten or slapped into the next millenia by a dinosaur! haha What is the best place to begin? Sorry if this is a silly question, I've always loved watching videos of this game, just never got the hang of it.
The southern spawns are generally safer, you'll want to stick to the beach and away from swamp and snow.
@lilpinkninja Welcome to ARK!!!! If you ever have any questions, feel free to hop on our teamspeak. Hope to see you around.
I agree with the south and the beaches. A lot of the players on our server are very helpful and can help you get started. If you spawn in the northeast near the hidden lake we can give you a few basic items to get started. If you want to go solo you can. I suggest gathering berries by pressing E near a bush and punching out a dodo first. Then feed it berries. If it looks like it will wake up, then remote use the Narcoberries. Dodos lay eggs that you can eat and take 8 days to go bad. They can also help protect you.
I will be on tonight if you want help getting started. Its a fun game, but as most sandbox games can get overwhelming. Come join us in teamspeak and we can help you out.
If you can get yourself to level 15 I believe it very much helps to make a raft, then it will allow you to move around the island until you find a more permanent place to live and you can make a base on top of it as well. I do this on every server that I have been on. Hope you find that info useful!

In this installment, I’ll cover different sort key options, when to use sort keys, and how to identify the most optimal sort key configuration for your tables. I’ll also present another methodology with which to work through your specific workload. This methodology offers concrete guidance on how to properly use sort keys for performance.
Defining a table with a sort key results in the physical ordering of data within each slice, based on the sort type and the columns chosen in the key definition. In Amazon Redshift, we allow for a table to be defined with compound sort keys, interleaved sort keys, or no sort keys. Each of these styles of sort key is useful for certain table access patterns. In practice, a compound sort key is most appropriate for the vast majority of Amazon Redshift workloads.
You can reduce disk I/O by improving zone map effectiveness.
You can reduce compute overhead and I/O by avoiding or reducing cost of sort steps.
Starting at the most fundamental question, and diving deeper, we can construct a logical flowchart applicable to any table that can be used for identifying the ideal sort type and sort key columns for your workload.
Will queries against my tables benefit from a sort key?
Almost always the answer is yes. However, in a few edge cases sorting a table doesn’t result in a performance improvement and only adds minor overhead to data ingestion.
As discussed preceding, you most often use sort keys to improve the effectiveness of the zone maps, which result in reduced block I/O for read operations. The next most frequent benefit provided by sort keys is sorting to remove, or reduce the cost of, sort steps required by SQL operations like ORDER BY, PARTITION BY, GROUP BY, and so on. Least common, but still important, is sorting to facilitate a MERGE JOIN operation. MERGE JOIN is the fastest of the three JOIN operations supported by Amazon Redshift.
If you have a table that is accessed in a pattern where none of these three optimizations benefits you, then you have one of the few scenarios where defining a sort key makes no difference. In these circumstances, you don’t need to specify a sort key.
Will sorting enable MERGE JOINs?
Two tables are sorted (compound) and distributed on the same columns.
These tables are joined, specifying the DISTKEY and SORTKEY columns in the JOIN condition.
If this query returns no results, you need to tune multiple tables simultaneously to facilitate a MERGE JOIN operation.
Do I want a MERGE JOIN?
MERGE JOIN operations are the fastest of the three join operations, so in many situations they’re what you want. However, for certain tables and query patterns it might be faster to use a HASH JOIN with a SORTKEY that benefits the filter condition rather than the join condition. For example, you might have a predicate that prunes a large number of blocks from scan and that is achieved by filtering on a sorted column unrelated to the JOIN condition column.
Which of these approaches is most effective depends on the size of the orders table and the selectivity of the filter on l_price.
When the query runs faster with approach 1, it means that the MERGE JOIN is better than reducing the necessary I/O for the scan operation. However, if the query runs faster with approach 2, it suggests that the filter effectively reduces necessary I/O for the scan and works better than the MERGE JOIN optimization.
By understanding the value of each approach, you can better estimate when a query pattern is more optimized with a MERGE JOIN, and when tofocus on optimizing common filter conditions with a different SORTKEY.
Will sorting improve zone maps?
Only one block with values exists on each slice for a given column.
If there is only one block per column per slice, that block has a minimum and maximum value that remain consistent, regardless of whether the data within that block is sorted or unsorted.
Example: A very small dimension table that contains less than a few thousand rows, each column’s values fitting entirely into the 1 MB block on each slice.
The values within the block are prefixed with a string 8 bytes or longer.
The minimum and maximum values in the block header allow for 8 bytes of data to track each value. For long strings, we take the first 8 characters as a prefix.
Example: I filter on a column that stores URLs that are always prefixed with: ‘https://’ so the minimum and maximum values are always the same prefix, regardless of the rest of the URL.
The column contains a single distinct value.
If the minimum and maximum value are consistent, regardless of sorting order, there’s no need to a sort key on the column.
Example: I have monthly time series tables where one of the columns contains the equivalent of DATE_PART(‘month ‘,timestamp).
These scenarios are rare, but if they match your use case it’s good to know that defining a sort key won’t improve zone map effectiveness.
Are query patterns using zone maps?
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS "public"."orders"
-- Filter results in a non-selective range restriction.
If you avoid patterns such as this, range-restricted scans benefit from zone maps.
Do query patterns use repetitive filters on similar column groups?
If you identify a common pattern of filter criteria on a similar group of columns, it suggests a potential column combination for the sort key definition. If the patterns show filters that seem to be quite random, a single compound sort key definition might not benefit the cluster.
In some cases, a table is accessed with varying filter criteria. In certain of these circumstances, the filters are a function of one another and the sorting order of one column can benefit the zone maps of another column not defined in the sort key. For example, if I have columns txn_ts with value 2016-09-09 10:00:00 and txn_dt with value 2016-09-09, txn_dt is clearly a direct function of txn_ts. These are technically differing filter criteria, but they mutually benefit one another so can be neglected.
More significant are cases where two business units access the same tables in different ways. For example, say the marketing department accesses my table orders when interested in sale dates and customer demographics. My business use case for this is to perform complex analytics on various market segments, to run and assess the effectiveness of targeted advertising campaigns in near–real time. The operations manager of a distribution center might be interested in weekly metrics to track packages shipped. In this example, one use case clearly adds much more business value than the others.
Note: When investigating historical workloads using the system tables like this, pay attention to the patterns that emerge from the queries and operations that are important to your business. That is, prioritize optimizations on frequently recurring patterns issued by scheduled jobs and known workloads over attempting to optimize queries coming from exploratory ad hoc queries. The latter often consist of unoptimized SQL code that is insignificant in value to the business.
Can you VACUUM REINDEX when needed?
When using an INTERLEAVED SORTKEY, the sorted order of data is determined based on metadata called z-indexes and z-compressors as decribed in this Wikipedia entry. This metadata is built when initially loading data into an empty table with COPY or CREATE TABLE AS operations and can be rebuilt for a table using the VACUUM REINDEX command. If your load strategy doesn’t involve initially loading a significant portion of the data into the table with COPY or CTAS (such as a load with INSERT INTO SELECT), then you need to VACUUM REINDEX your tables to fully benefit from the INTERLEAVED SORTKEY defined.
VACUUM REINDEX can be a very expensive maintenance task, depending on the size of your table. If you’re not loading with COPY and can’t tolerate the cost of the VACUUM REINDEX operation, you shouldn’t use INTERLEAVED SORTKEYs.
Will sorting reduce sort steps?
It’s rare to make it through this flowchart to this point without benefiting. However, if you use ORDER BY or GROUP BY clauses on otherwise full table scans, it’s worth specifying a COMPOUND sort key to reduce sorting at read time.
Doing so allows you to skip, or reduce the cost of, certain query processing operations. Such operations include ORDER BY, GROUP BY query clauses, and PARTITION BY, ORDER BY clauses of a windowing aggregate function.
With this, you can easily visualize a complete view of how your table is filtered, and then define a column group to best facilitate your workload.
Choosing optimal sort key configurations for your tables allows you to reduce disk I/O by improving zone map effectiveness, reduce compute overhead and I/O by reducing the cost of sort steps, and even enable MERGE JOIN operations. Each of these benefits help your complex analytical workloads to perform well over multipetabyte data sets.
By following the process detailed preceding, you can identify the ideal sort type and sort key column group for your specific tables. The final step is to simply rebuild the tables to apply these optimizations. This rebuild can be performed at any time. However, if you intend to continue working through the Advanced Table Design Playbook, you might want to wait until the end before you issue the table rebuilds. Otherwise, you might find yourself rebuilding these tables multiple times to implement optimizations identified in later installments.
In Part 4 of this table design playbook, I’ll describe how to use column properties related to compression encoding for another significant performance gain and storage reduction.

Hand wash or wipe clean with damp cloth. Do not bleach. Hang to dry. Do not iron. Do not dry-clean.
I love this product so easy to use and convenient.
Genius product idea! Before this product, I would bring other wipe-off bibs with me on-the-go, but would be stuck cleaning them in the bathroom or putting dirty bibs in the diaper bag. The roll up and snap option is perfect. Also, being able to store utensils in the actual bib! Great price for 3 of them.
Love the quality and designs. Easy to clean up and definitely helps catch the mess!
The bib is roomy for the extra messy eater, like my guy. Which helps us a lot. The pocket is great for on the go, you are able to keep the mess contained to the bib itself, and also able to keep utensils altogether when away from home. And I really like that it is easy to clean after eating. Wipe it down, let it air dry and your ready for the next use!

I have just acquired this beast of a drum sander from Jet, minus the stand. The installation and initial setting up was very easy, even single handed, but be warned the main part of the unit is very heavy 85kg (187lbs), then add the extension tables and you are talking about 100kg (220lbs).
Please note that this is a European version, the drum sander specs may be different in your country.
The instruction booklet that comes with the system is adequate, but could be better written. I did not buy the cabinet stand that is offered here in Europe, The $300 price tag, plus the shipping cost was prohibitive.
The drum sander comes preloaded with a 80 grit strip on the drum and a box of jet replacement strips at 40, 80 and 120 grit also a sanding strip/abrasive cleaner, in addition I bought a 25m (82’) roll of 120 & 180 grit 3” strips which should last a few weeks.
Care must be taken when loading the drum, so the paper is really tightly wound from the out-board side to the in-board side, with no overlapping joints, if there is a gap between the joints that is OK. If you load from the in-board to the out-board side the paper tends to loosen (as the automatic paper tensioner is on the in-board side) and overlaps toward the inboard side during the operation.
The feed table speed is fully variable, with an automatic reduction in feed rate if the load (you are sanding too thick) is too great.
The 2.4HP motor is very quiet, delivering more than enough vibration free power and torque even when sanding with 40 grit paper and a wide board.
I was pleasantly surprised at the dust collection – there is no discernible dust present on the table/platen during operation, when connect to the dust collector – with out the DC then you have a London “pee Souper” in seconds.
The home made support table is made from not so good quality Birch I had in stock and the 4 wheels (50kg rating each) the total cost was about $60 (significantly cheaper and probably stronger than a purchased stand) – be warned the overall dimensions when installed takes a large footprint 1.2m (48”) x 1m (39”). It would be nice if Jet made the extension wings fold-able when not in use. You could unbolt the wings easily, but then it would take too long to reinstall and set them up again.
I am only going to give this 4 stars, mainly due to the problem with getting the drum parallel to the platen and that the extension tables cannot be folded out of the way when not in use.
Update: 21-03-2009. I managed to get the drum parallel with the platen today, but I had to use a clamp to hold the out board side of the roller in position whilst tightening the bolts – not a perfect solution, but acceptable as you do not have calibrate the roller every day.
Update: 22.03.2009. The inboard sandpaper retaining clip/tensioner broke today during operation, releasing the sand paper onto the drum, overrunning and reversing the sandpaper (grit side down) onto the drum – now the nicely polished drum is all badly scratched. I now have to find out where I can get this repaired as there re NO jet service centers listed for Finland.
Updated: 01.04.09. The supplier is going to ship me the spare part for fitting, unfortunately it is not in stock, so I have to wait 2 weeks. Luckily I managed to make a temporary repair to the retaining clip so at least I can still use it whilst waiting.
I recently acquired the Jet-22-44 and am very pleased with it. My first drum sander was the Delta x5 and was disappointed from day 1. The elevator system was difficult to align and keep that way. The Jet is eveything I had hoped for. I am building some large sofa tables with live edges and I needed something that I could also use as a planer.
-- If she asks please tell my wife that I can sell my tools for what I paid, okay?
Nice piece of equipment Tony.
I makes my old home made sander look pretty amateur.
That 2.4 hp motor will make it pretty smooth even with an 80 grit on the drive.
Best of luck with it Tony and again thanks for taking time to evaluate it for us.
I have this same sander (the American version)With the enclosed cabinet. I purchased mine used about 4 months ago and love it.
Nice review, Tony. I have a Delta 18-36” drum sander and I keep the out board side of my platen about .010” thicker. It prevents burning the along the edge of the drum when doing a panel wider than 18”. The ridge is almost unnoticeable and is easily sanded out. If I do a panel less than 18”, I just run the panel through both ways to even it out. These are great tools to have for saving time on small table tops and such.
Thanks for the review, Tony. A good drum sander is rising to the top of my wishlist, so I’ll use this info when I’m ready to buy.
Nice review Tony. Since Jet purchased Performax That is probably the Performax sander with the Jet name.
It looks like Jet add a more powerful motor though. That will sure make a difference.
Thanks for the detailed review. I hope you get the parallelness (did I just create a new word? ;-) you are looking for.
I was checking this out today and saw they had an oscillating version. I’d love to get one but then I look at my check book. If I knew I had a lot of kitchens in my future I’d sure go for it. I’ve spent the last few days on the idiot end of a belt sander and after a while that just kills my back.
Nice review, Tony. I have had one of these on my wish list for some time now. Thanks for the information on the tool.
Thanks for the review Tony. I keep looking at these but the footprint is killing me. I have to reorganize somehow (not my strong suit to begin with) to find a place to stash it.
Hope it keeps working well for you.
Tony: I used a brass rod and no sandpaper on the drum to level my sander. The rod allowed me to level up the table to match up to the drum.
Karson. In this model you have to level the Drum to the table, not the other way around. The problem arises when tightening the bolts, this is when the the whole assembly moves if not held in place.
Tony – The trick with bolts is to tighten them a very little bit moving from bolt to bolt.
If that doesn’t work them offset it in the opposite direction by the amount it moves when you tighten them.
-- It's better to have people think you're stupid rather than open your mouth and remove all doubt.
Tony try putting a thickeness or 2 of mdf between the table and drum and set the drum to that then tighten the bolts.

A healthy heart beats about two billion times during a lifetime - thanks to the interplay of more than 10,000 proteins. Researchers from the Max Planck Institute of Biochemistry (MPIB) and the German Heart Centre at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) have now determined which and how many individual proteins are present in each type of cell that occurs in the heart. In doing so, they compiled the first atlas of the healthy human heart, known as the cardiac proteome. The atlas will make it easier to identify differences between healthy and diseased hearts in future.
The first such protein atlas of the heart was recently published in "Nature Communications" by a research team from Munich. The scientists determined the protein profile of cells in all the regions of the heart, such as heart valves, cardiac chambers and major blood vessels. In addition, they investigated the protein composition in three different cell types of the heart: cardiac fibroblasts, smooth muscle cells and endothelial cells. In this way, the researchers were able to map the distribution of proteins in the various regions of the heart. Using mass spectrometry, they identified nearly 11,000 different proteins throughout the heart.
Previous studies had focused for the most part only on individual cell types, or they used tissue from diseased hearts. "This approach has two problems," says Sophia Doll of the MPIB and lead author of the study. "First, the results did not give a full picture of the heart across all its regions and tissues; and second, comparative data on healthy hearts were often missing. Our study has eliminated both problems. Now the data can be used as a reference for future studies."
In the next step, the team wanted to test whether the data from healthy hearts could serve as a control for detecting changes in diseased hearts. They compared their values with the cardiac proteomes of patients with atrial fibrillation, a very common rhythm disorder of the heart. The results indeed provided initial clues as to the cause of the disease. The tissue of the diseased hearts was most different in proteins responsible for supplying energy to the cells.
The comparison provided yet another interesting finding: Although the proteins involved in energy metabolism were changed in all the patients, those changes differed between individuals. "These findings show us how important personalized medicine is. Although all the patients had very similar symptoms, we see from the data that a different molecular dysfunction was responsible in each case. We need to learn to recognize and treat such individual differences - especially in cardiac medicine," says Adjunct Teaching Professor Dr. Markus Krane, Deputy Director of the Department of Cardiovascular Surgery of the German Heart Centre Munich at TUM.
Together with his colleagues at the Department of Cardiovascular Surgery (Director: Professor Rüdiger Lange), Markus Krane has collected more than 150 tissue samples from over 60 cardiac operations and forensic samples. Using elaborate cell culture methods, they were able to extract the various cell types from them. This large amount of cardiac material was a crucial factor for studying the individual heart regions so precisely. Professor Matthias Mann, head of the Proteomics and Signal Transduction Group at the MPIB, and his team carried out extensive mass spectrometric measurements. Thanks to advances in mass spectrometry and sample processing, the researchers are lighting the way towards personalized medicine.
The team at MPIB attaches great importance to precise, repeatable and fast analytical methods. They have improved the measuring technique to the extent that an entire heart region can now be determined in less than two days - twice as fast as before. This is crucial, especially for potential use on patients.
The data will be soon available in the public database MaxQB (http://maxqb.biochem.mpg.de/).

I am wondering how to populate new entity classes to database file, so that I could add new instances of these entities to database through explorer. I tried to run com.objectdb.Doctor with model.jar (my entity classes in it) in classpath but it doesn't work (new entities still dont show up in explorer). Could it be possible to add that kind of feature in next relase ?
You are right that this feature should be added.
The new entity class should be added.

Would you rummage through the dumpster to complete a homework assignment? Maybe, but probably not. Just the thought of diving through trash can make your skin crawl. But I’m willing to be that is that teacher said there are a couple of gold bars in that bin, you’d do it in a heartbeat.
This is what Professor Tina Seelig asks her students to do in her classes. She’s unusual but with 35 years of figuring out where people get their creative juices flowing, I’d welcome being quirky too. Seelig is Professor of the Practice in the Department of Management Science and Engineering at Stanford. She’s been teaching and writing a lot about creativity, entrepreneurship and innovation for many, many years now (we’ll leave it to you to guess the number).
For this week’s Best Event Talk, she talks about creativity using a Mobius strip, where it’s broken down to six factors: Knowledge, Imagination, Habitat, Attitude, Culture and Resources. According to her, our Knowledge is our toolbox for creativity, Imagination is the catalyst for turning that knowledge into new ideas, and our Attitude is the spark that gets things done.
And although these may seem enough to create an idea, you still need to consider outside factors or environments that influence these three. Resources, Habitat and Culture play a role as well. Knowledge, Imagination and Attitude need to be stimulated by the environment that we are in to become truly innovative.
Seelig’s talk at TEDxStanford was short but full of a sageful advice and reflection. I can hardly keep up because every word seems so important. As an events professional, consider yourself thinking along the lines of the Mobius strip of the innovation engine that she introduced. How can you use it help create a better, more innovative event for your client?
If you want to turn on your innovation engine, I recommend you watch this short but worthwhile talk. Who says you can’t have structure and process when being creative?

Open the egg into a mixing bowl and add soy sauce, rice wine, sesame oil and the zest of one lemon to it. Mix it all well. Add sliced chicken breast and let it sit covered in the fridge for about one/two hours, to fully marinade the chicken.
After the chicken will be marinated, take out from the fridge; in a bowl, mix corn starch and salt and dip in it each strip of chicken, coat it well; set the chicken aside, ready to fry.
Heat a pan on stove with 1 cm of vegetable oil on medium-high heat.
Fry the chicken strips, a few at a time, for at least 3-5 minutes, to let the chicken get well cooked.
To prepare the sauce, add the zest of the other lemon into a sauce pan. Add to it the juice of the 2 lemons, the chicken stock and the sugar. Bring the sauce to boil at medium-high heat and continuously stir to melt the sugar.
When the sauce starts boiling, add 1/2 tbsp corn starch mixed in 1 tbsp warm water continuing to stir. When the sauce will have turned thick, remove the pan from heat, set it aside, add salt to sauce and spread it over the fried chicken.
Serve immediately, garnishing with slices of lemon.
Put 1 tsp oil in a skillet and sauté cumin, bay leaf, cloves, cardamom, chillies, ginger, onion and salt.
Once the onion get transparent, add tomato, a pinch of turmeric and garam masala, let cook for another 2 minutes.
Add the lentils, 2 cups of water (or vegetable stock) and bring to boil. Cook for 20 mins.
In an another pan, cook the rice in boiling water, when ready put it a large dish with the lentils aside and garnish with cilantro, ghee and lemon (last three are optional).
Nothing compares to a homemade yogurt, so here is my own recipe.
No special tools are required.
Clean and sterilize, using boiling water, all your equipment as well as your work surface.
Attach the thermometer to the stock pot and add the milk. Heat the milk until it reaches 85°C, stirring with the metal spoon a few times to avoid the formation of a skin (An optimal option could be using two pots, one larger than the other, to heat in a gentler way, filling the space between the two pots with water). Be careful don’t allow the milk to scald.
Remove pot from the heat and let it cool to 43°C.
To speed the cooling process, place the pot in a cold/iced water bath, stirring to avoid the forming of a skin.
Pour 3 tablespoons of plain yogurt into the milk (@43°C) and stir well but not vigorously, not to incorporate air into the yogurt.
Pour the mixture into the glass jar. Close the jar and place it in a warm part of the kitchen, over the heating pad (you can also use a pre-heated thermos). Let the mixture incubate for 10-12 hours (do not disturb jar), remembering that a longer incubation produces a thicker yogurt.
Remove the yogurt from the incubating pad, stir it, cover it and refrigerate until cold, at least 3 hours. (If you used a thermos, remember to store the yogurt into a glass jar to allow refrigeration).
Add you favourite flavoring just before serving.
Yogurt can be stored in the refrigerator, in its covered jar, for about 1 week.
An English Cuisine classc revisited, using minced beef.
Peel and chop the carrot, the onion and the celery.
Chop the mushrooms and the rosemary leaves.
Place this mix in a large pan with olive oil, and cook at medium heat for approx 8 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Add a cup of boiled peas and cook for another 2 minutes.
Remove from fire, set aside in a bowl and let cool.
Add the beef, half the beaten egg, salt and pepper, mixing all together.
Roll out the pastry and lightly dust it with flour. Place the beef-vegetables mix on the pastry and wrap the pastry around the mix.
With a kitchen brush put the other half of the beaten egg all over the edges of the roll to seal it and on the surface of the roll itself.
Put on a tray and bake in the oven (at 180°C) for an hour.
Preparing this delicious Indian Cuisine recipe is a two step process.
Use 3 boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-size pieces, put them into the marinade, cover, and refrigerate for at least 2 hour (better for 8 hours).
Lightly oil a grill, and grill chicken, after having discarded the marinade, for about 10 minutes, turning frequently.
don’t let them get brown.
Add 1 bottle (750 ml) of tomato sauce and 250 ml of yogurt.
Boil at very low heat for 20 minutes.
Add grilled chicken, and cook for 10 minutes more.
Just before serving, add chopped coriander leaves.
Serve with fluffy boiled rice and a mixed salad.

Offering something for everyone, this crossbody pouch handbag looks fabulously fun with a leather patchwork design. From G.I.L.I. got it love it(R).
G.I.L.I. Leather Patchwork Crossbody Pouch Handbag is rated 3.7 out of 5 by 21.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Cappi from Very Classy!! Very pretty, quality leather, well-made!!! Statement piece!!!
Rated 4 out of 5 by Girty from Good purchase This is a good purchase for me. The size is right for a cross body. I like to carry a cross body most of the time because it doesn't put heavy weight on my elderly shoulders.
Rated 3 out of 5 by Southern belle from Ordered new,Expected new I ordered two of these fully expecting to receive new item or at least items that had not been used. I did not order an 'as is' item. One did not have the cloth bag and both had all paper wrapping off. One even appeared scuffed. Recently I received a "new" wallet with red AS IS stickers on it. Not the QVC of the past. Product is nice but if you want what you paid for "buyer beware".
Rated 5 out of 5 by seeyaaz from Beautiful Purse After receiving the purse in the tan Patchwork to give as a gift, I decided to order this in the dark forest for myself. It will be perfect to wear in the cool months to come. It really is a beautiful purse. Plenty of room for every thing I carry. I know I will enjoy wearing this.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Judyoh from Love this little purse! This is the best cross body pouch. Everything necessary fits in it. I first bought it in the blue and then bought in the green. I used to carry heavy purses all the time. This gives me another attractive option for everyday. It's well made and very nice looking. Very happy.
Rated 4 out of 5 by mac56 from B+ Grade My 3rd GILI attempt - prior purchases were full-size handbags that were returned because I couldn't justify keeping less than an A grade product for the high price. This is nice - I like the mixed media patchwork design and the clearance price was reasonable. However, the hardware and strap were not plastic-wrapped but the inside zipper pull was. So it seems like this was a returned item although it doesn't really look used - but I'm not happy about receiving returned or 'as is' merchandise. I am keeping it because it is cute and its not worth incurring return shipping fees but I am rethinking my QVC shopping habits.

Homiletics == the application of general principles of rhetoric to the specific department of public preaching. It includes all forms of preaching: the sermon, homily, and catechetical instruction.
In May I will be going to Atlanta, GA to listen to preaching. The schedule is pretty full for those of us who will be taking part in this Festival. Beginning Monday evening and ending Friday morning (May 16-20) there will be opportunities to hear a variety of preaching styles and some of the best preachers in the United States.
A Sabbatical, as I mentioned in the January newsletter, is not only for study, but also for rest and relaxation. So, following the opportunity to attend the Festival of Homiletics, I will be traveling to see some of my family.
Most of you know that I enjoy train travel, so it will not surprise you that a part of these trips to see family will be by train. That travel may not be the quickest, but it is quiet and relaxing.
So, that’s month one of my Sabbatical! Some of the time may be spent here in Spencerport, but I won’t be working at the church during that time. So I may see some of you, as your friend, during those weeks.
Listening to preaching and sharing in worship and hearing great music will be energizing. And traveling to see family will be relaxing. And all of that will be an opportunity to rest in God’s grace. What ways can you find to lean on God?
