A Streetcar Named Desire shows a turbulent confrontation between traditional values in the American South - an old-world graciousness and beauty running decoratively to seed - set against the rough-edged, aggressive materialism of the new world. Through the vividly characterised figures of Southern belle Blanche Dubois, seeking refuge from physical ugliness in decayed gentility, and her brutal brother-in-law Stanley Kowalski, Tennessee Williams dramatises his sense of the South's past as still active and often destructive in modern America. This revised edition features a new production history of the play that considers both stage and screen presentations, an updated bibliography and extensive notes on the language of the play. Commentary and notes by Patricia Hern and Michael Hooper.
Presents a collection of ten critical essays on Williams's play "A Streetcar Named Desire" arranged in chronological order of publication.
Set in St. Louis during the Depression of the 1930s, this work is a personal account of the author's family and its gradual disintegration as it succumbed to external and internal pressures.

Is high-flow nasal cannula therapy feasible for managing bronchiolitis in children in the emergency department?
Bronchiolitis is a common condition affecting infants. Emergency department (ED) management of the condition for children in England has involved oxygen therapy through use of a standard oxygen mask, which children do not always tolerate. Recent research has looked at high-flow nasal cannula therapy as an alternative way to manage bronchiolitis in the ED.
To determine whether high-flow nasal cannula therapy is a suitable and effective approach in EDs for infants with bronchiolitis.
Databases that were searched included CINAHL, MEDLINE, Embase and the Cochrane Library. Citation and handsearching were also carried out. Studies were selected if the majority of participants were under two years old with bronchiolitis as their main condition and high-flow nasal cannula therapy was used. Articles were excluded if there was no data from an ED or equivalent setting and if they primarily included life-threatening or severe conditions. Ten articles were used in the review.
Common themes were identified from the literature. Primary outcomes that emerged included the physiological impact of commencing high-flow nasal cannula therapy in the ED. Overall, the studies suggested that beginning the therapy improved children's vital signs significantly more in the first hour of treatment compared with standard therapy and led to a reduced number of intubations.
Further secondary outcome measures included the cost-effectiveness of beginning high-flow nasal cannula therapy in an ED, the safety of the therapy in an ED, tolerability and whether the therapy helps to identify future care needs.
The studies suggest that early use of the therapy could help to ascertain whether a child needs to be in critical care. Findings on its cost-effectiveness varied. All the studies suggested it was a safe and tolerable method of delivering oxygen.
Findings from the literature review along with guidelines and evidence have been considered in recommending how the results could be applied in practice.
Looking at whether guidelines need to be changed.
Criteria for beginning high-flow nasal cannula therapy.
While the results of the ten studies are consistent, suggesting high-flow nasal cannula therapy is an effective method to use, there is a lack of good evidence, particularly in the form of multi-centre randomised controlled trials and studies based in England, which was part of the original objective of the dissertation. More primary studies should be conducted on a larger scale before the results of this review are applied in practice.

The story of Brooklyn's pie society
By Matthew Perlman
Chowing down: Scott Wiener pretty much sleeps, eats, and breaths pizza. And you can see him talk about Brooklyn's part in the food's history at the Historical Society on May 21.
Photo by Elizabeth Graham
Slices are this guy's life.
Scott Wiener writes about pizza, gives guided pizza tours, and on May 21 he will lecture about the sacred edible form at the Brooklyn Historical Society. Wiener's talk, titled "Pizza: The Brooklyn Story," will explain how the cheesy finger-food became a staple of New York fare and how his home borough helped get it there.
"It's cheap, portable, fast, and tasty," said Wiener about his mozzarella-topped muse. "It fits in with the pace of New York."
But pizza was not always so ubiquitous an item. The circular staple was first used by bakeries to cool and clean the ovens, and as a way to get rid of leftover dough.
"Pizza was just a throwaway," the Bedford-Stuyvesant resident and slice scholar said.
The first pizza parlor in the country was Lombardi's, which opened in 1905 in Manhattan, but its owner Gennaro Lombardi lived across the East River in Williamsburg and Dyker Heights.
Lombardi's is still open, but because of a decade-long hiatus and a short move, Wiener says the longest continuously operating pizza joint is Coney Island's Totonno's, which opened in 1924 and has been slinging pies ever since.
Brooklyn at the turn of the century was home to loads of bakeries and buildings with coal ovens and they became appetizing real estate for pizzaiolos as the profile of their product rose. Today, many of the coal ovens are gone, but the tradition of dough-twirling is as going strong in Kings County.
Wiener is about to launch a pair of Brooklyn pizza tours, one in Williamsburg and one in Cobble Hill. He currently offers a few Manhattan options, and occasionally runs the pie walks in other boroughs. He also does tours for private groups by request.
The tours include three or four stops and, to simplify sharing, he tries to keep his customers in groups that are multiples of eight.
"It's all about pie division," he said, explaining the need to keep butter knives out of the picture. "Whole slices only. It would be too disrespectful to the slice."
"Pizza: The Brooklyn Story" at Brooklyn Historical Society [128 Pierrepont St. between Clinton Street and Monroe Place in Brooklyn Heights, (718) 222–4111, www.brooklynhistory.org]. May 21 at 7 pm. $8, $5 for members.

London's Greens announce plan to buy and close City Airport
January 18, 2016 - Martin Hoscik@MayorWatch
Image: City Airport
Green party mayoral candidate Sian Berry says she would use City Hall and local council cash to buy City Airport and then close it if elected in May.
The airport's owners, Global Infrastructure Partners, were delivered a serious blow last year when current Mayor Boris Johnson blocked its expansion amid fears that local residents would be exposed to "adverse noise impacts".
GIP has now placed the airport, which carries around 3.3 million passengers a year, on the market and are hoping to raise at least £2bn from the sale.
A number of major investors, including insurance group Allianz, are understood to have tabled bids. The Greens say they would hope to persuade the German-based insurer, which recently divested from coal, to commit to closing the airport if its bid is successful.
Should this approach fail, Berry says she would "form a consortium between City Hall, local councils and businesses" to make a rival bid and, if successful, close the airport and redevelop the site to provide thousands of new homes and "at least 16,000" jobs.
The mayoral hopeful said the airport is "of negligible importance" to Britain's aviation needs and claimed it would "become even more irrelevant once Crossrail opens and provides a fast connection between Canary Wharf and Heathrow."
She added: "It's holding back London's economic potential, undermining the existing enterprise zone here in Newham, and causing untold health and environmental problems to thousands of local residents.
"If this prime piece of the land were used sustainably for innovative businesses, residential areas, leisure, cultural facilities and shops, it would go a long way towards solving many of London's problems at the same time."
However Berry's campaign have been unwilling to answer a number of key questions about how her policy would work.
A spokesperson declined to say what would happen if the airport's current owners refused to sell it to her proposed consortium and also failed to say whether the campaign had investigated what contractual obligations the new owners would inherit.
However it seems likely that the airport would have to remain operational until at least 2019 as the current owners signed a five-year deal with Flybe in 2014 to base some of its domestic and international routes at the airport.
Such long-term deals could force Berry and her co-owners to continue operating the airport until contracts with each airline expired to avoid facing action for breach of contract or having to use taxpayer money to buy out the contracts.
Both City Hall and local councils are facing cuts in the grants they receive from central government, forcing each to review, and in some cases close, key services.
Berry's campaign has not said which current City Hall spending they would axe to free up cash for the bid.

Q: Android Wear runnable for vibration works only in debug or with an active screen i'm facing a big issue with android wearable development.
I've got a Runnable task that runs with an Handler every 100mS (it's purpose is to behave just like a chronograph) on my phisical wearable device (that's a Motorola 360).
When the Runnable task is alive for 20 seconds, i call a custom IntentService called VibratorService that makes the device vibrate with a defined pattern for an undefined amount of time.
When the Runnable task reaches 30 seconds alive, i dismiss the VibratorService so that the device stops vibrating while Runnable goes on and on.
For make device vibrating i decided to use an IntentService because calling directly Vibrator.vibrate() from the running task wasn't enough: Vibration stops when wearable goes in sleep mode. I should have implemented a wake lock to make it work continuously but i don't want to do it because it keeps the screen active.
During my debug sessions i've noticed that my app works good in every condition. Unfortunately doesn't works well in sleep mode when wearable is not connected in debug mode to the handheld device (that's an OnePlus) and this makes it very difficult to debug and understand where the problem is. The only way i found to make it work in this scenario is to continue moving phisically the wearable in order to keep it awake.
I can't understand if the Runnable task/Handler works properly or if there are some problem in VibratorService start or if there's an issue in Vibrator class usage when wearable is sleeping and debug is turned off. In my opinion i think is something related to the Runnable or to the Handler, but i'm not sure.
Someone of you is aware about a different behavior in debug/non debug  sleep mode for Runnable/Handler/IntentService/Vibrator?
How can i make it work?
Here you are the Runnable task code:
private class TimerRunnable implements Runnable {

            private boolean _isRunning;
            private boolean _isPaused;
            private long startTime;

            public boolean isRunning(){
                return _isRunning;
            }

            public void resetRunnable(){

                    if(elapsedTime>=30000)
                        stopNotification();
                    else if(elapsedTime>=20000)
                        startNotification();
                    mHandler.postDelayed(this, REFRESH_RATE);

        intent.putExtra(VibratorService.PARAM_SLEEPDURATION, sleepDuration);
        intent.putExtra(VibratorService.PARAM_VIBRATIONDURATION, vibrationDuration);
        context.startService(intent);
        isRunning = true;
    }

    @Override
    public void stopNotification() {

        //Stop vibration
        Log.i("VibrationNotification", "Stop vibrate notification service");
        Intent intent = new Intent(context, VibratorService.class);
        intent.addCategory(VibratorService.TAG);
        context.stopService(intent);
        isRunning = false;
    }

The vibrator service:

Backupify's proposition is that two clouds are better than one. Its service, available in the app stores for Salesforce and Google Apps, backs up enterprises' data from those SaaS (software as a service) platforms in Backupify's storage bucket on Amazon S3. Each enterprise's data there is encrypted with a customer-specific key.
The service benefits SaaS providers as well as enterprises, said Daniel Stevenson, Backupify's vice president of business development.
The developer platform is already live. As long as they meet some baseline requirements, such as having RESTful APIs of their own, the software vendors will be able to start running backups within a few hours, according to Backupify. They will either integrate the platform's capabilities into their SaaS or recommend Backupify to their subscribers, Stevenson said. The APIs are free, but Backupify will get paid by SaaS providers that offer the backup capability and by enterprises that buy it on their own. The company's traditional service costs US$3 per user, per month with unlimited data.
Backupify is also working on giving enterprises more options for where to back up their data. Customers that already have cloud-based storage of their own on services such as Rackspace Cloud Files or Google Cloud Storage will be able to use those, or their own on-premises storage capacity, instead of Backupify's Amazon S3 bucket, Stevenson said.


We offer various book keeping, payroll and tax services which are much more cost-efficient than internal accounting.

Lee Jong Seok and Shin Hye Sun Show Off Script for Short Drama Death Song
Posted on March 30, 2018 by ockoala
I totally forgot that Shin Hye Sun was also a student in School 2013 which launched the careers of Lee Jong Seok and Kim Woo Bin, so this is a reunion for her to do the short drama Death Song (Hymn of Death) with Lee Jong Seok. It's an added reunion as Lee Sang Yeob is also joining the cast after being such a turd to everyone in While You Were Sleeping but especially to Lee Jong Seok's character. Death Song is about the life of Korean opera singer Yum Sim Deok in the 1920's and her doomed romance with writer Kim Woo Jin as the chose to jump overboard a ship headed back to Korea rather than return to their respective significant others. It's tragic and selfish but perfect fodder for dramatizing. The drama premieres this May on SBS.

Shin Hye Sun and Lee Jong Seo were classmates. They also starred together in School 2013 (although I don't remember seeing her in that drama)I recall she gave an interview about these interesting facts. She's also really tall, so she won't have to slouch next to him. I'd watch a romcom with both of them in it, any day, but the topic of this drama is a little too heavy for my taste.
HANTOO on March 31, 2018 at 2:55 AM said:
ShinhyeSun is on a roll. its a short drama and easy to watch. Looking forward to it. LJS's nose has changed btw.
rd on March 31, 2018 at 3:05 AM said:
Well it sure looks different
candycane on March 31, 2018 at 5:34 AM said:
Yeah no wonder he looks a bit different…. his nose his nose… lol… bet his fan girls can't say he is all natural anymore… LOL ?
xyz on March 31, 2018 at 9:57 AM said:
They'll say he gained weight on his nose. He's got that electrical outlet nose where the nostrils are pushed up, looks bad however you fix it.
Deb on March 31, 2018 at 11:07 AM said:
I thought he admitted to having plastic surgery at some point or maybe I'm thinking of someone else.
He's the last person anyone could say has a natural face though, I mean come on. I'd recommend that the ones that say this should stop living in denial and embrace his surgery altered face they love so much. Nothing wrong with that.
candycane on March 31, 2018 at 1:06 PM said:
@Deb, I don't follow his interviews so I don't know what he has said. But I read in this site that his fans claimed his nose looked the same as he was younger & his whole family has this type of electric plug nose. But now it seems like the nose shape has changed… it just funny to read how those delulu fans will react… why none is speaking up? Nothing to say??
sam on March 31, 2018 at 8:24 PM said:
Here we go again with the nose. Well a fangirl here?and if you bother to look then you will find that his nose looks like THIS in a lot of pictures at different times when he smiles. I guess he keeps getting those surgeries right?
prettyautumn on April 1, 2018 at 12:36 PM said:
@candycane LJS, like many popular hallyu stars tend to have too many delulu fans
rhienz on March 31, 2018 at 5:10 AM said:
Jong Seok-ah.. what did you do again to your face?
Royal We on March 31, 2018 at 6:24 AM said:
I thought it was some kind of distortion in the picture, it looks off somehow.
Ha, that's not Lee Jong Suk, he sent a body double as a gag. I'm wondering if he got another nose job and the swelling just hasn't gone down yet.
Anyway unless I hear this is extremely good, I'll be skipping. I'm sorry but his face on camera makes me uncomfortable and his acting skills are more on the mediocre side in my opinion. I'm really happy for Shin Hye Sun though, her career is in such a great place right now.
clover on March 31, 2018 at 2:24 PM said:
Actually had to google his early pictures. And what he has now does look more like what he was born with. I agree with @deb. I don't mind if any of these idols get plastic surgery.
But on a side note did he gain weight? Or is it possible that just by altering his nose it made him look that way?
Oto on April 1, 2018 at 12:06 AM said:
Haha…anti fans are also fans. Becos of you i got to know LJS is an amazing person n actor. Those who work with him speaks well of him as a person who is reliable person. What one writes reflects on oneself. Haha…
Ann Joel on April 1, 2018 at 3:36 AM said:
I didn't know that someone's nose could get so much leverage. Sorry I don't know the before look of LJS and I must be as blind as a bat because I can't see what's wrong? Then again Im in New Zealand and we don't overly care if someone has had plastic surgery or not. We don't loose sleep over it. However I am curious about the new SBS drama with Shin Hye Sun and wonder how anyone can get excited about watching an adulterous couple commit suicide by jumping off a ship. Geez the poor wife and son back in Korea and my sentiments with them.
Eleven on April 1, 2018 at 10:46 AM said:
Regarding LJS' nose – make-up highlighters and shading/contouring are so in these days that I think his nose tends to look different depending on who did his make-up.
He used to look fine before debuting but now his nose creeps me out. I hope this role will be a deviation from his usual characters. He tried something different with wyws but he doesn't sell that goofy kind of character really well after playing geniuses. Props to him for challenging himself though

Interesting Random Facts
What does the phrase "Garrison finish" mean and Where does it come from?
December 27, 2019 by Karen Hill
The phrase "Garrison finish" means a spectacular success when defeat seems inevitable.
The expression is usually applied to a race, but is often used in connection with a political campaign or the like in which a candidate whose chance seems hopeless makes a strong and unexpected last-minute effort that wins the victory.
Edward H. Garrison was the man to whom the term was first applied. He was a famous jockey, better known as "Snapper" Garrison, who died after a long career on the turf in 1931.
Among the practices he is said to have introduced, according to an account in the New York Herald Tribune at the time of his death, was the so-called "Yankee seat,", standing high in the stirrups and bending low over the horse's mane.
The term "Garrison finish" was coined during 1882. In the Suburban for that year "Snapper" Garrison first demonstrated a technique that he had worked out. He held his horse in, trailing those bunched ahead, until the last furlong; then, in a superb ride, he brought his mount, Montana, past all others to win at the finish by a nose.
It is said that he was unusually successful in pulling off this stunt in later races, taking a horse that appeared to be jaded to a strong finish.
The first and later successes made that type of race a byword on the racetrack, from which the name spread into other applications.
Where does the phrase "to come to the end of one's rope" come from and What does it mean?

Biographical Sketch of Park B. JENKINS, M.D.
George W. Kingsbury. 1915. History of Dakota Territory. Vol. IV. S.J. Clarke Publ. Co., Chicago (transcribed by Maurice Krueger and online in the SDGenWeb Archives).
Dr. Park B. Jenkins, of Waubay, who is serving as superintendent of the South Dakota State Board of Health, has proved very efficient in that capacity and has done much to promote public hygiene. He was born in Newport, Vermont, November 14, 1873, a son of S.W. and Francelia (Sias) Jenkins. The paternal grandfather, William Jenkins, was born in Vermont, as was the maternal grandfather, Ezra Sias, who resided in the Green Mountain state throughout his entire life. Both the parents of our subject were born in that state, the father in 1840 and the mother in 1850. They grew to mature years there and were there married. In 1882 they removed from Vermont to Waubay, South Dakota, and the father homesteaded land on which the family resided for about five years. A removal was then made to the town of Waubay, where he ran a railroad eating house for a number of years. He is a well informed man, although he had but limited educational opportunities in his youth, for he has always been a student of men and events. His political belief is that of the socialist party. For three years he served in the Civil war, proving a loyal and efficient soldier, and he held the rank of sergeant. To him and his wife have been born two children: Park B. and Clinton A., also of Waubay, who is connected with the state game department.
Dr. Park B. Jenkins was graduated from the high school of Webster, South Dakota, in 1893 and subsequently entered the University of Illinois, from which he was graduated in medicine in 1896. For one year he was connected with the health department of the city of Chicago and for a like Period of time he was in a hospital at Marquette, Michigan, thus further preparing for his life work. In 1898 he began the private practice of his profession at Waubay, where he has since remained. In 1909 he was appointed a member of the state board of health and in 1912 was appointed superintendent of that body, in which position his work proved so satisfactory that on the 1st of July, 1915, he was reappointed to that office by Governor Byrne. He gives the greater part of his time to his official duties and is continually seeking new ways in which the board may further safeguard the public health. He is a member of the State Medical Society, the American Medical Association, the International Congress of Hygiene and Demography, and of the Association of State and Provincial Boards of Health.
Dr. Jenkins gives his political allegiance to the republican party, believing that its policies are based upon sound principles of government. Fraternally he is connected with the Knights of Pythias and the Woodmen and is popular in those organizations. In capably discharging the important duties that devolve upon him as superintendent of the state board of health he has gained a statewide reputation for ability and integrity and has the confidence of both the general public and the medical profession.

Meet GH4STEM 100 Top Teacher: YAW OSEI ACHEAMPONG, Sunyani #GH4STEM
April 13, 2020 • GH4STEM 100 Top Teacher • 1 Comment
Yaw Osei Acheampong is the eldest child of a family of seven. He comes from Nkoranza and is himself a father of three. He has been teaching for the past fourteen years, and currently teaches a total of one hundred and fifty students.
When Mr. Acheampong was younger he wanted to be a nurse. When he completed secondary school, he applied to the Berekum Nursing school. Unfortunately he did not gain admission. This made him unhappy. "I became frustrated with education so I stopped concentrating on schooling and went into farming," he says. However, it turns out that he could not abandon education! When he had made enough money from farming, he decided to go back to school. This time, his plan was to become a teacher. He enrolled in St. Joseph's Teacher Training School and obtained a certificate in Education. From there, he continued to acquire a Diploma and later a postgraduate degree in Education from the University of Education, Winneba.
Mr Acheampong attributes his disciplined nature to his father, a lawyer, who taught him this invaluable lesson of discipline and made it a part of him. Mr Acheampong is thankful to his father for this, because discipline has taken him far, and has also been critical in his teaching. He has assisted his school to win some competitions, and he believes this is due to hard work and discipline.
Throughout his life, Yaw has always loved STEM. In secondary school, he studied science and also studied Mathematics and Science at the tertiary level. Currently, he also receives training from ITEK, and this helps to improve his knowledge in STEM. Mr. Acheampong explains that in teaching STEM, he takes a very deliberate and practical approach, and also draws from his considerable life experience. He is confident his students will be motivated to select STEM courses as they continue their way up the educational ladder. For him, he enjoys teaching STEM mainly because it is easy to find practical examples of what his is teaching, and because of this, the students are able to participate in class, learn and remember what has been taught.
When he was told about the JUNEOS challenge by ITEK, he asked his students to select the experiment they wanted to perform, and once that was done, he began working with them to prepare for the competition. He guided them so that they could conduct the experiment successfully. Their experiment involved magnetism and its applications in everyday life.
The JUNEOS challenge has had a great influence on Yaw. He now researches much more than he used to do before. What he has learnt from the JUNEOS Challenge is that with any topic he teaches, he must ensure that it is applicable to the lives of his students. He hopes that the JUNEOS Challenge will help train students very well so that they become great scientists in the future.
In order to give you a fuller picture of who Mr Acheampong is, you might want to know that he does not spend all his time on STEM. He also enjoys watching Efiewura on TV, and is a Christian.

Inaugural Asian American Alumni Award to honor the late Iris Chang
Apr 20, 2005 9:00 am by Jeff Unger | 217-333-1085Honors
CHAMPAIGN, Ill. - The late author Iris Chang will be honored as the first recipient of the Outstanding Asian American Alumni Award at the 10th annual Asian American Leadership Awards ceremony at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.
The free, public ceremony will begin at 7 p.m. April 27 (Wednesday) in Room 210 of the Illini Union, 1401 W. Green St., Urbana. The awards recognize those who have exemplified a high level of leadership and dedication to the Asian American community.
Chang is perhaps best known for having written "The Rape of Nanking: The Forgotten Holocaust of World War II." The book, which uncovered atrocities committed by the Japanese army against Chinese civilians during World War II, was on The New York Times best-seller list for five months and has been translated into 13 languages. Chang also wrote "The Chinese in America: A Narrative History" and "Thread of the Silkworm."
She was a member of the University High School Class of 1985 and graduated from the U. of I. College of Communications with a degree in journalism in 1989.
The new award was created to recognize alumni who have made outstanding contributions to the Asian American community, enjoyed exceptional success in their professional careers, performed meritorious service supporting the mission of the university, or some combination thereof. Among others to be recognized at the ceremony will be students, faculty members, staff members and registered student organizations.
Niranjan Shah, a member of the U. of I. Board of Trustees, will be the keynote speaker at the event.
The awards are sponsored by the Asian American Awareness Month Committee.
For more information call Jeffrey Sichaleune, 217-333-0050.

Vinzent Wesselmann, a junior at the Alabama School of Fine Arts and an alumnus of Pizitz Middle School, recently represented Alabama at the High School Diplomats program (HSD) at Princeton University.
HSD is a full scholarship program that selects 40 American students and 40 Japanese students to spend 10 days at Princeton University, educating one another about their respective cultures and creating a better understanding between the two countries.
"It is rare to find programs that can change your way of thinking and inspire you to do things you never imagined of in less than two weeks. High School Diplomats (HSD) is one of those programs and has created what I believe to be some of the strongest friendships with people who live halfway around the world," Wesselmann said.
Each American student is paired with a Japanese roommate, and they overcame language and culture barriers together. Students also gave presentations on education, social issues, geography or the government in our respective countries.
One particularly meaningful day was the anniversary of the day the atomic bomb was dropped on Hiroshima. Students from the city of Hiroshima prepared a presentation for that day.
Wesselmann said this experience broadened his worldview. American participants shared their knowledge of Halloween, prom, pep rallies, Thanksgiving and Independence Day. In turn, Japanese students introduced the Americans to the traditional Japanese tea ceremony, various forms of Japanese martial arts, sushi making, traditional Japanese clothing and calligraphy.

Watch below to experience VMware's Speaker Sessions at this year's OpenStack Summit in Boston!
Come and understand the true value to your organization of combining Openstack and VMware. In this session you will understand the value of having a defcore / Openstack powered solution to enable your developers to provision IaaS, in a way that they want, using the tools that they want. In addition you will be able to enable your operations team to continue to utilize the tools, resources and methodology that they use to ensure that your organization has a production grade environment to support your developers.Deploying Openstack, and getting the advantages of Openstack does not need to be a rip and replace strategy. See how other customers have had their cake and eat it.
Running production workloads on OpenStack requires a rock solid IaaS running on a trusted infrastructure platform. Think about upgrading, patching, managing the environment, high availability, disaster recovery, security and the list goes on. VMware delivers a top-notch OpenStack distribution that allows you all of the above and much more. Come to this session to see (with a demo) how you can easily and quickly deploy OpenStack for your dev test as well as production workloads.
Neutron is challenging in many aspects. The main ones reported by OpenStack admins are: complex implementation of network and security services, high-availability, management/operation/troubleshooting, scale. Additionally, with new Kubernetes and Containers deployments, security between containers and management of container traffic is a new headache. VMware NSX offers a plugin for all Neutron OpenStack installations for ESXi and KVM hypervisors. Learn in this session with multiple live demos how VMware NSX plugin resolves all the Neutron challenges in an easy way.
The pace of technological change is accelerating at an exponential rate. With the advent of 5G networks and IoT, Communications Service Providers success depends not only on their ability to adapt to changes quickly but to do so faster than competitors. Speed is the of the essence in developing new services, deploying them to subscribers, delivering a superior Quality of Experience, and increasing operational efficiency with lowered cost structures. For CSPs to adapt and remain competitive, they are faced with important questions as they explore the digital transformatVMwareion of their business and infrastructure, and how they can leverage NFV, and OpenStack and open hardware platforms to accelerate change and modernization.
Kubernetes is leading the container mindshare and OpenStack community has built integrations to support it. However, running production workloads on Kubernetes is still a challenge. What if there was a production ready, multi-tenant K8s distro? Dream no more. Come to this session to see how we adapted OpenStack + K8s to provide container networking, persistent storage, RBAC, LBaaS and more on VMware SDDC.
OVN is a virtual networking project built by the Open vSwitch community.
improved debugging capabilities, and more flexible L3 gateways.
tunnels, native DNS integration, and more.
deployment from ML2/OVS to OVN.
Openstack Interop (formerly DefCore) guidelines have been in place for 2 years now, and anyone wanting to use OpenStack logo must pass these guidelines. How are guidelines created and updated? How would your favorite project be added to it? How can you guarantee that your OpenStack deployment will comply with the new guidelines? In this session we will cover OpenStack Interop guidelines and components, as well as explain how they are created and updated.
Resource Management is a top requirement in NFV field. Usually, the Orchestrator take the responsibility of parsing a virtual network function into different virtual units (VDU) to deploy and operate over Cloud. Senlin, positioned as clustering resource manager since the born time, can be the ideal bridge between NFV orchestrator with OpenStack: it uses a consolidate model which is directly mapped to a VDU to interact with different backend services like Nova, Neutron, Cinder for compute, network and storage resources per Orchestrator's demand; it provides rich operational functions like auto-scaling, load-balancing and auto healing. We use a popular VIMS typed VNF to illustrate how to easily deploy a VNF on OpenStack and manage it in a scalable and flexible way.
Now network function virtualization (NFV) is growing rapidly and widely adopted by many telcom enterprises. In openstack Tacker takes the responsibility of building a Generic VNF Manager (VNFM) and a NFV Orchestrator (NFVO) to deploy and operate Network Services and Virtual Network Functions (VNFs) on the infrastructure platform. For the VNFs which can work as a loadbalancer or a firewall, Tacker needs to consider the availability of each VNF to ensure they are not overloaded or out of work. To prevent VNFs from being overloaded or down, Tacker need to make VNFs HA and auto-scaling. So in fact the VNFs of certain function should not be a single node, but a cluster.
That comes out a problem of cluster managing. In OpenStack environment there is a Clustering service called Senlin which provides scalability management and HA functions for the nodes, those features are exactly fit for Tacker's requirement.
In this talk we will give you a general introduction of this feature.
OpenStack Interop Working Group (formerly DefCore) produces the OpenStack Powered (TM) Guidelines (a.k.a. Interoperability Guidelines). But, how do we decide what goes into the guideline? How do we define these so called "Capabilities"? And how does the team "score" them?

The OpenStack community has been driving initiatives on two sides of the interoperability coin: workload portability and API/code standards for OpenStack Powered products. The first phase of the OpenStack Interoperability Challenge culminated with a Barcelona Summit Keynote demo comprised of 16 vendors all running the same enterprise workload to illustrate that OpenStack enables workload portability across OpenStack clouds. Building on this momentum for its second phase, the multi-vendor Interop Challenge team has selected new advanced workloads based on Kubernetes and NFV applications to flush out portability issues in these commonly deployed workloads. Meanwhile, the recently formed Interop Working Group continues to roll out new Guidelines, drive new initiatives, and is considering expanding its scope to cover more vertical use cases. In this presentation, we describe the progress, challenges, and lessons learned from both of these efforts.

During Wednesday morning's keynote session at the OpenStack Summit in Barcelona, I will be on stage along with several other vendors to show off some of our latest work on interoperability between OpenStack clouds. We will be demonstrating a single workload running successfully on over a dozen different vendors' OpenStack products without modification, including VMware Integrated OpenStack 3.0. The idea got started back in April at the last OpenStack Summit when our friends at IBM challenged vendors to demonstrate that their products were interoperable publicly.
Think of it this way: another amazingly flexible, powerful thing we use daily is electricity. Electricity is pretty much the same stuff no matter who supplies it to you or what you are using it for, but the way you consume it might be different for different use cases. The outlet I plug my laptop into at home is a different shape and supplies a different voltage than the one my electric oven is connected into since the oven needs a lot more juice to bake my cookies than my laptop does to type up a blog post. My home's air conditioner does not even have a plug: it is wired directly into the house's circuit breaker. I consume most of my electricity as a service provided by my power company, but I can also generate some of my power with solar panels I own myself as long as their outputs can are connected to my power grid. Moreover, to power up my laptop here in Barcelona, I brought along a plug adapter since Europe has some differences in their power grid based on their set of standards and requirements. However, even though there are some differences, there are many commonalities: electricity is delivered over metal wiring, terminated at some wall socket, most of the world uses one of a few different voltage ranges, and you pay for it based on consumption. OpenStack is similar: An OpenStack deployment built for NFV workloads might have some different characteristics and interfaces exposed than one made as a public compute cloud.
What makes the Interop Challenge interesting is that it is complimentary to the work of the Interop Working Group in that it looks at interoperability in a slightly different light. To date, the Interop Working Group has mostly focused its efforts on API-level interoperability. It does so by ensuring that products bearing the OpenStack-Powered mark, pass a set of community-maintained Tempest tests to prove that they expose a set of capabilities (things like booting up a VM with the Nova v2 API or getting a list of available images using the Glance v2 API). Products bearing the OpenStack-Powered logo are also required to use designated sections of upstream code, so consumers know they are getting community-developed code driving those capabilities. While the Interop Working Group's guidelines look primarily at the server side of things, the Interop Challenge seems to address a slightly different aspect of interoperability: workload portability. Rather than testing a particular set of API's, the Interop Challenge took a client-side approach by running a real workload against different clouds—in this case, a LAMP stack application with a load-balanced web server tier and a database backend tier, all deployed via Ansible. The idea was to take a typical application with commonly-used deployment tools and prove that it "just works" across several different OpenStack clouds.
In other words, the guidelines produced by the Interop Working Group assure you that certain capabilities are available to end users (just as I can be reasonably confident that any hotel room I walk into will have a socket in the wall from which I can get electricity). The Interop Challenge compliments that by looking at a more valid use case: it verifies that I can plug in my laptop and get some work done.
Along the way, participants also hoped to begin defining some best practices for making workloads more portable among OpenStack clouds to account for some of the differences that are a natural side effect of OpenStack's flexibility. For example, we found that the LAMP stack workload was more portable if we let the user specify certain attributes of the cloud he intended to use – such as the name of network the instances should be attached to, the image and flavor that should be used to boot up instances, and block device or network interface names that would be utilized by that image. Even though we will only be showing one particular workload on stage, that one workload serves as a starting point to help flesh out more best practices in the future.

Deploying OpenStack challenges even the most seasoned, skilled IT organizations. With integrations, configurations, testing, re-testing, stress testing and more. For many, deploying OpenStack appears as an IT 'Science Project', wherein the light at the end of the tunnel dims with each passing month.
VMware Integrated OpenStack takes a different approach, reducing the redundancies and confusion of deploying OpenStack with the new Compact Management Control Pane. In the Compact Mode UI, wait minutes, not months. Enterprises seeking to evaluate OpenStack or those that are ready to build OpenStack clouds in the most cost efficient manner now have the ability to deploy in as little as 15 minutes quickly.
The architecture for VMware Integrated OpenStack is optimized to support compact architecture mode, reducing the need for support, overall resource costs, and the operational complexity keeping an enterprise from completing their OpenStack adoption.
The most recent update to VMware Integrated OpenStack focuses on the ease of use and the immense benefit to administrators – access and integration to the VMware ecosystem. The seamless integration of the family of VMware products allows the administrators to leverage their current VMware products to enhance their OpenStack, in combination with the ability to manage workloads through developer friendly OpenStack APIs.

Some developers may avoid utilizing an OpenStack cloud, despite the advantages they stand to gain, because they have already established automation workflows using popular open source tools with public cloud providers.
But in a joint presentation to the 2016 OpenStack Summit, VMware Senior Technical Marketing Manager Trevor Roberts Jr.'s and VMware NSX Engineering Architect Scott Lowe explain how developers can take advantage of OpenStack clouds using the same open source tools that they already know.
Their talk runs through a configuration sequence, including image management, dev/test, and production deployment, showing how standard open source tools that developers already use for non-OpenStack deployments can run in exactly the same way with an OpenStack cloud. In this case, they discuss using Packer for image building, Vagrant and Docker Machine for software development and testing, and Terraform for production grade deployments.
"This is a way of using an existing tool that you're already comfortable and familiar with to start consuming your OpenStack cloud," says Roberts, before demoing an OpenStack customized image build with Packer and then using that image to create and deploy an OpenStack-provisioned instance with Vagrant.
Lowe next profiles Docker Machine, which provisions instances of the Docker Engine for testing, and shows how you can use Docker Machine to spin up instances of Docker inside an OpenStack cloud.
Lastly, Lowe demos Terraform, which offers an infrastructure-as-a-service/cloud services approach to production deployments on multiple platforms (it's similar to Heat for OpenStack), creating an entire OpenStack infrastructure with a single click, including a new network and router, and launching multiple new instances with floating IP addresses for each, ready for pulling down containers as required.
As Roberts notes in the presentation, VMware itself is "full in on OpenStack – we contribute to projects that aren't even in our own distribution just to help out the community." Meanwhile, VMware's own OpenStack solution – VMware Integrated OpenStack (VIO) – offers, a DefCore-compliant OpenStack distribution specifically configured to use open source drivers to manage VMware infrastructure technologies, further aiding the adoption process for developers already familiar with vSphere, vRealize, and NSX.
For more information on VIO, check out the VMware Integrated OpenStack (VIO) product homepage, or the VIO Hands-on Lab. If you hold a current license for vSphere Enterprise Plus, vSphere Operations Management, or vSphere Standard with NSX Advanced, you can download VIO for free.

Yesterday was an exciting day for Team OpenStack at VMware. Our CEO Pat Gelsinger used the VMworld opening keynote to make two exciting announcements that surely caught the attention of developers, IT and the technology community at large. First, he announced VMware Integrated OpenStack, our new distribution of the open source OpenStack code. Then, Pat announced a new collaboration with Google, Docker and Pivotal highlighting our commitment to making sure container-based solutions run great on VMware infrastructure.
In reality, the story is more nuanced, and in fact, over the past few years, VMware has developed a track record of embracing open software frameworks where they provide clear value to our customers. To understand the bigger picture, we first need to talk about the key role open frameworks are playing in the new era of software development.
Developers of next-generation applications have embraced a fully automated model of accessing data center infrastructure via APIs. When building these new apps, they use APIs to provision their apps, APIs to scale those apps up and down, and APIs to release the resources when they are done. Ultimately, this is about enabling agility: allowing them to build and modify their applications more quickly, thereby moving their business forward faster.
To simplify their lives, developers of modern apps don't want to deal with the data center infrastructure directly. Rather, they want to leverage a framework that layers on top of that infrastructure, and gives them a more abstract model against which they build their application. These frameworks are often open standards or based on open source, because open frameworks have an easier time establishing mindshare and creating an ecosystem of associated tools, libraries, etc. and because open frameworks carry the potential to offer significantly improved workload portability across varied types of infrastructure.
Open frameworks come in all shapes and sizes, including Java frameworks (e.g., Spring) to data analytics (e.g. Hadoop), Infrastructure-as-a-Service (e.g., OpenStack), Platform-as-a-Service (e.g. Cloud Foundry) and containers (e.g. Docker). VMware has helped lead the creation of several of these frameworks while others are examples of where we recognized good work started elsewhere and moved to add support within our solutions. Either way, if our customers see strong potential in a framework, we have taken steps to enable them through products such as the vFabric Suite (Spring), vSphere Big Data Extensions (Hadoop), Pivotal CF (Cloud Foundry), and now VMware Integrated OpenStack.
Part of enabling any open framework for customers is having skin in the game. VMware is investing its own development resources to help build the OpenStack framework. VMware has been a gold member of the OpenStack foundation since 2012, we are one of the largest companies contributing to OpenStack, adding code to integrate our technologies such as VMware vSphere and VMware NSX™ and enhance the project as a whole. In fact, in the latest release of OpenStack (Icehouse), VMware was the #4 contributor to the official set of "integrated" OpenStack projects, which are the core OpenStack projects like Nova, Neutron, Cinder, Glance, Keystone, Horizon, Swift, etc. that most people recognize. While such numbers only tell part of the story, it's an indicator that VMware is investing considerably in OpenStack integration, and that data is available for all to see here.
VMware is committed to making sure that the best way to run OpenStack is on VMware. Whether a customer wants to consume VMware technologies as components along with the open source code or a partner OpenStack distribution, or chooses to use VMware Integrated OpenStack, they will achieve a new level of agility for developers by offering them powerful, vendor-neutral OpenStack APIs on top of VMware's enterprise-class infrastructure.

Developers of next-generation applications have embraced a fully automated model of accessing cloud infrastructure via APIs. They use APIs to provision their apps, APIs to scale those apps up and down, and APIs to release the resources when they are done.
OpenStack is an open source framework that layers on top of virtual and physical infrastructure to provide a set of open, vendor neutral set of infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS) APIs and related set of tools + services to facilitate this developer-centric access. OpenStack allows IT to deliver this public-cloud like API experience to their developers on their private cloud, without necessarily giving up control of their infrastructure to the public could.
Nobody can disagree that OpenStack does have a tidal wave of marketing momentum behind it. And for the past several years, VMware has been continuously contributing to the community, all while listening to and engaging with customers about how and why OpenStack is something they felt they needed. The answers are as varied as the technologies from which you can choose to build an OpenStack cloud.
But with all its benefits, if an OpenStack cloud is not built on top of reliable, secure, and high-performance virtual infrastructure, running it as production-grade cloud can be quite challenging. This often requires building a large team of developers and administrators with deep experience in OpenStack, Linux, and Python programming, or paying hefty sums to bring in outside consultants with that expertise. Likewise, in the absence of the right management tools, operating an OpenStack cloud can be highly labor intensive, and require an investment in custom-built tools. Both factors have limited the ability of enterprises to adopt OpenStack.
We believe VMware's software-defined data center technologies can help accelerate OpenStack in the enterprise. VMware is committed to making it easy for IT to deploy OpenStack on VMware's enterprise-grade compute, network, and storage technologies, and enabling customers to leverage our management tools to deliver key capabilities in areas such as troubleshooting, log management, capacity planning and billback/chargeback. The end result will be OpenStack infrastructures that give developers the tools they want, and give IT the reliable and easily managed data center infrastructure they need.
So now that you know what we've done so far, where are we going from here? That's what this blog will be about. We will, of course, use this blog to communicate information about future products and plans, but we are also looking to engage with our customers and ecosystem about the developments, trends and adoption of OpenStack as a whole. We will offer you a forward-thinking vision – from inside and outside of VMware – coupled with tangible and actionable information about how to build enterprise-grade OpenStack with the help of VMware's technologies.
We will also have an OpenStack booth within the VMware section on the expo floor, so please do drop by and say hello!

SAN FRANCISCO, FEB 8 — Google said Thursday that it will suspend its high-speed internet service in Louisville, the largest city in the U.S. state of Kentucky, in mid-April after it has experienced challenges that have been "disruptive" to residents.
The service, which is part of Google Fiber program that was aiming to offer customers broadband internet service with speeds up to 1 gigabit (Gbps) via fiber-to-premises deployment, will come to an end on April 15.
Google Fiber said in a blog that its operation in Louisville was a failure after its plan to place fiber optic cable in very shallow trenches cut into sidewalks and streets proved to be disruptive to local residents.
"We're not living up to the high standards we set for ourselves, or the standards we've demonstrated in other Fiber cities," Google said.
Google has launched the Fiber project in several U.S. cities, and the first one was Kansas City where the high-speed internet service was made available in 2012. Louisville was one of the most recent cities included in the project, when Google brought the program to the city in 2017.

Subtext-The phrases "I am a woman phenomenally" and "Phenomenal woman thats me" give the poem sub-text.Although the nararrator is not physically beautiful her inner qualities give her all the beauty she needs to be phenomeanl.
Title-By reading the title you get an idea of what the poem is about.And as you read the poem you make the connection to the title and why it is important to the literal and bigger meaning of the poem.
Poet-Maya Angelou is a very well known American poet.She has written many other impactful poems that are famous.Also many of her poems have to do with African American oral traditions.Angelou worked for Dr. Martin Luther King and Malcom X during the civil rights movement.As Maya Angelou grew older her poems became very popular.She has also dealt with hardship which has had an influence on the way she writes and what she writes.
Time-The poem was published in 1978 by Random House.
Aha!-I could musically talk about the poem because it carries of song like flow.Because the poem can be so easily read itt can be sung to a rhythm and sound great. I would say the song carries a nice tempo and when sung the meaning can still get across in the same way as the poem .As a song I think the poem would be likable in the same sense the poem is .
The song would go like this:
Pretty women wonder where my secret lies.
I'm not cute or built to suit or fashion-model size.
When I start to tell them,
They think I'm tellin' lies.
I say, "It's in the reach of my arms,
The span of my hips,
The stride to my steps,
The curl of my lips."
I'm a woman – Phenomenal woman.
I'm a woman. Baby, that's me.
I walk into a room Just as cool as you please
And to a man they will stand
And fall down on their knees.
When they swarm around me
Like a hive of honey bees,
I say, "It's in the fire in my eyes,
The flash of my teeth,
The swing of my waist,
The joy in my feet."
It's in the arch of my back,
