ROSEVILLE — Roseville Veterinary Clinic is used to treating dogs and cats and farm animals, but what happens when a bald eagle needs help?
This Tuesday a man walked in the door carrying a bald eagle wrapped in a sweatshirt.
“I just stood there and said, ‘Uh … ah … ummm. … I don’t think we can take it because we are not a national wildlife clinic,’ ” employee Alex Huston said. “I wasn’t sure just what I should do. He told me he found it alongside the highway and thought he should take it to the nearest vet. That was us.”
But the man was adamant. He had to leave so he handed Huston the bird and took off.
Huston hesitantly took the bird into the back room to examine him.
“I was terrified,” she said. “I was shaking the whole time because at any time he might take off.”
She wore protective gloves and special glasses as a precaution.
“I picked him up off his back, but then his wings started to move,” she said. “I could feel their strength, so I set him back down quickly.”
She said the eagle seemed pretty calm. It did not make any noise, but its eyes followed her everywhere she went. He worked his way out of the sweatshirt he was wrapped in, and he was very wobbly.
“We didn’t see any wounds. It is very probable that he has lead poisoning,” Huston said. “Since he is a bird of prey, he could have eaten an animal that had been shot and gotten the lead in his system. They will know better when they examine him in a wildlife center.”
The Roseville Clinic is not prepared to handle national wildlife. Staff made many calls, but transportation was an issue. A local man, Dan Porter from Western Illinois Animal Rescue, finally made a contact that would help the bird.
He called Tammy Hanley of Hopedale, who takes damaged wildlife into her home. She said if they could get the eagle to her, she would take it from there. Larry Powell was able to take the eagle to Farmington where Hanley met him and took over.
Hanley kept the bird overnight but contacted the Illinois Raptor Center in Decatur for further treatment.
At the center they determined the bird has lead toxicity. There was no evidence of the lead in his digestive system; it had spread into his body. He could not stand, his head tilted to the side, and he was having seizures. They will keep the bird there until he has stabilized and passed the lead out of his system.
Then they will send the bird to the University of Illinois where staff will determine if or when he can be released back into the wild.
They named the bird Marahute, which is Native American for Big Bird of the Sky.
They will bring Marahute back to Warren County for release, but there is no way to know exactly when that will occur.
Huston described the ordeal as “terrifying.” But upon reflection she said, “It was overwhelming but also a little like being on cloud 9 because I was in a position to help such a beautiful, powerful creature.”

I was debating whether or not to post this simply because it’s technical and too detailed in spots. But then I thought I should post it in case anyone is interested in how well Cyberknife surgery works on brain mets. These results occurred after a single treatment that lasted about 90 minutes. If you are sitting on the fence between radiosurgery and traditional open cranium, if you can do the Cyberknife, do it (if you are given a choice):
EXAMINATION: Brain MRI. HISTORY: 40 year-old male with metastatic renal cell carcinoma. COMPARISON: Brain MRI 3/26/2009 through 12/16/ 2009. TECHNIQUE: Sagittal T1, axial pre- and post-gadolinium T1, T2 FSE, T2 GRE, FLAIR, diffusion, sagittal post-gadolinium MP-RAGE with axial and coronal reformatted sequences of the brain were obtained.
FINDINGS: There has been significant interval decrease in size of the intracranial metastatic lesions. The most striking interval change is decrease in the 16 x 20 mm heterogeneously enhancing mass within the deep right frontal periventricular white matter, contrasting with a previous measurement of 31 x 23 mm. There is significantly diminished, though persistent mass effect upon the right lateral ventricle. The lesion abuts that ependymal surface without evidence for diffuse subependymal spread. There is also diminished associated vasogenic edema. There has been decrease in size of the lesions within the left occipital lobe, now measuring 8 and 3 mm, with diminished vasogenic edema. No new lesion is present. Post-operative changes following prior right frontoparietal craniectomy with post-operative dural enhancement are stable. There are stable foci of susceptibility artifact, likely post-surgical, with slightly increased susceptibility artifact associated with the deep right frontal lesion, which may represent petechial hemorrhage, correlating with the intrinsic T1-shortening on the pre-contrast sequences.
IMPRESSION: Significant interval decrease in size of the intracranial metastatic lesions as well as diminished vasogenic edema, with no new lesion. The study and the report were reviewed by the staff radiologist.

A café is much more than a space to go for a coffee or juice. It is a complete experience.
Food has gone from a necessity to a conscious choice that reflects our lifestyle and deepest convictions.
Have you ever thought about how the famous green juice influence your health and well-being?
In a world where information is at our fingertips, it is sometimes difficult to distinguish between fact and fiction. But it is especially important to do so when it comes to our health and nutrition.
We live in a world where people are increasingly aware of what they consume but also have less time. This is why offering natural juice directly at your grocery can be a way to attract and retain customers.
Today we would like to talk to you about the nutritional value, vitamins and minerals in 100 ml of naturally squeezed orange juice.
Consumers are increasingly including more natural products in their shopping cart.
When we make natural juice, whether with orange or any other fruit, it tends to oxidize after a short time. In addition, with oxidation, the taste of the juice deteriorates and it loses its properties.
Although it seems that oranges usually take the lead, grapefruit also has great benefits. It’s highly recommended to include this type of juice to obtain varied and full of nutrients diet.
I’m sure your mother also told you: “drink the orange juice before the vitamins run out” and, although it was a “very motherly” resource for us to drink the juice, she was right.

ULC’s Master Site Development Team Presents at the 2019 Colorado Health Symposium in Keystone, CO
This July, The Colorado Health Foundation hosted their 2019 Colorado Health Symposium in Keystone, Colorado with a focus on the intersection of health, housing and inequity. The national health conference, “offers a unique chance to interact with cross-sector experts and dedicated professionals who are leading the way in addressing health equity.”
Erin Clark, ULC’s VP of Master Site Development, presented on an interactive panel with our partners from Clinica Tepeyac and Columbia Ventures. The presentation focused on creating stability through equitable transit-oriented development, highlighting the future development at ULC’s Race TOD property in the Elyria Swansea neighborhood.
During the presentation, participants were divided into five groups, given maps and asked to help determine the current assets and gaps present in the Elyria Swansea neighborhood. Each group suggested numerous ideas that would provide direct community benefit to local residents. These included (but are not limited to) childcare, financial institution, farmers market, cohousing, barber shop, community gardens, family housing and community centers.
The five groups then worked together to brainstorm how future phases of development could be built in a way that incorporates beneficial community assets like the ones listed above. The session was incredibly successful, and left our team with informative takeaways to help guide future community engagement sessions as development progresses forward. Thank you again to The Colorado Health Foundation for recognizing the important connection between health and housing, and for hosting this year’s Symposium.


HP, Dell, Lenovo, Samsung to unveil 64-bit Windows 8.1 tablets by month-end
Some of the most prominent PC makers are reportedly going to unveil Windows 8.1 tablets running on Intel's Bay Trail 64-bit chip.
Despite the availability of a 64-bit processor, most of the Windows 8.1 tablets have been running in 32-bit mode.
According to Cnet, Hewlett-Packard, Dell, Lenovo, and Samsung are some of the PC manufacturers which are expected to show the Intel 'Bay Trail' tablet with the 64-bit processor at Mobile World Congress towards the end of February.
One of the reasons to shift to 64-bit includes access to more memory, beyond the typical 32-bit mode offering 4GB limit.
However, another reason for the 64-bit push in tablets is because IT organizations want to standardize on 64-bit images and 64-bit apps, which cannot be achieved with the current Bay Trail tablets, an analyst at Insight 64 noted.
Dell would be rolling out updated Venue tablets for 64-bit, while Microsoft is also said to unveil its own 64-bit running Windows 8.1 devices on Atom.
The report said that the race to 64-bit in mobile devices has taken on new urgency after Apple announced the 64-bit A7 processor powering its iPhone 5S, iPad Air, and iPad Mini Retina last year.

Things certainly seem to be changing on the San Diego Comic-Con front. For years, the convention has hosted some of the biggest Hollywood players, who showcased sneak peeks with some of their upcoming features. The illustrious (and infamous) Hall H was where many of these flicks were first showcased to a wide audience. Over the past decade-plus, the con was a mecca for comic/film geeks to go in search of the latest and greatest in comic book movie trailers, clips, and cast/filmmaker appearances.
However, with the internet age upon us, change was inevitable. As leaks made their way online, it was only a matter of time before studios began to pull out of these conventions. Disney was the first to pull out. With their own D23 to showcase their films, they had little need for Comic-Con, and now TheWrap is reporting that 20th Century Fox, the studio that produces X-MEN and DEADPOOL, has also pulled out of the world-famous con.
The reason cited by the outlet was that the studio felt like it couldn’t prevent the piracy of their trailers and exclusive footage for fans in attendance. Many will remember last year when screenshots of the titular Apocalypse from X-MEN: AGE OF APOCALYPSE made it onto the web. The look of the character was widely mocked and compared to the likes of Ivan Ooze from the POWER RANGERS film. It looks like Fox took those leaks into consideration, and have opted simply not to show up.
This is no doubt a huge disappointment for fans who were hoping to see early looks of movies like ASSASSIN’S CREED and THE WOLVERINE III. This sort of split of studios from the conare no huge surprise. It’s a costly investment to get your film to SDCC, and considering a studio has the ability to throw up a trailer pretty much whenever online for free, it seems that the studios are needing the cons less and less.
While it’s a bit sad that those dedicated enough to make it to the con may soon become privy to less and less on the film front, this will likely force SDCC to change — and hopefully for the better.
What do you think of 20th Century Fox pulling out of Comic-Con? Do you think others will follow suit soon? If so, what would you want out of conventions like these? Let us know all your thoughts down below!

Director William Klein will always be a hero of mine, after his incredible anti-US superhero satire, MR. FREEDOM. So, of course, this equally impressive, earlier effort was on my Must-Dredge-Up List. Visually brilliant and subversive as hell, this is French New Wave wackiness with a sledgehammer aftertaste. The feature debut from US expatriate Klein, it's a natural extension of his fashion photographer roots, and in today's era of super-model madness, POLLY is a glorious fart into the face of this media idiocy. Klein deposits us into the world of French high fashion at its most absurd, beginning with a runway show inside a screwed-up, FLINTSTONES-like cave-creation. The models all wear aluminum sheets, bent and bolted to their bodies, while the snooty audience proclaims it "magnifique." Who cares if the models are actually getting sliced up by the sharp edges of their "clothes"? With reality sticking close to Klein's fiction, real-life model Dorothy McGowan stars as movie-model Polly Maggoo -- a woman so alluring that strangers accost her on the street, asking her to be their fiancee, or run in front of speeding cars (thud!) in order to follow her. It's Maggoo-mania, with Jean Rochefort playing a TV journalist covering Polly's unprecedented fame with a vapid profile (which has the same title as this movie). And in one of the strangest subplots (which is saying a lot), Sami Frey plays a Prince (Charming?) who longs for Polly's affections, amidst his world of toys and magic props and fab furnishings -- and asks her to visit his chilly country. And yes, that's future-DARK SHADOWS cast member Grayson Hall as the lemming-like fashion publisher. The satire comes hard and heavy, yet it's all so stylishly delivered that it becomes contagious. Klein has a dazzling sense of composition -- rigidly combining sets, costumes and b&w camerawork into an altogether unique look, which often feels like Kubrick on mushrooms. Sprinkled with several extremely-photogenic fashion shoots, I particularly loved his offbeat digressions, such a fantasy episode which has Polly as a far-too-sexy Shirley Temple, singing "Animal Crackers in My Soup." At the heart of the film, MacGowan proves herself a personable type, who isn't afraid to look ridiculous. Ultimately, she makes today's breed of Ubermodel look like freakish frauds, while bringing a rare breath of humanity to her role (despite her occupation). In the end, POLLY MAGGOO remains a tumultuous time capsule of an extravagant era, captured at its most deliriously excessive. Outstanding!

ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED IN THE GEORGIA STRAIGHT, FEB. 15, 2001
By Steve Newton
Like most teenage guitar-rock freaks in the ’70s, I was big on Aerosmith. I made every effort to see them if they got within driving range of Chilliwack; I even hauled my skinny hick ass out to Seattle when they played the cavernous Kingdome on the 1976 Rocks tour. That was a strangely memorable bill, in that it included a support performance by Jeff Beck, with the Jan Hammer Group. What I recall most about that gig—apart from how wasted Steven Tyler and Joe Perry appeared—is seeing Beck, halfway through “Blue Wind”, launch into a few bars of the old Yardbirds rave-up “Train Kept a-Rollin’ ”. The mostly teenaged crowd went nuts, but not because they recognized Beck’s raunchy reenactment of the British Invasion. The majority of the kids thought he was paying impromptu tribute to the show’s headliners, who’d covered the song two years earlier on the Get Your Wings album.
When I reach Beck by phone in London, England—where he’s been madly rehearsing for a North American tour that opens at the Commodore on Saturday (February 17)—the “exhausted but fine” rock legend admits to having his own vague memory of the Aerosmith fans’ response to “Train Kept a-Rollin’ ”.
“That’s just one of those things you have to put up with,” he says of the days when he was touring as a warm-up act in support of the extraordinary Wired album. At that point, he and “Blue Wind” composer Hammer were a potent team on-stage, exchanging breakneck, “I’m faster than you” solos on guitar and keyboards, and conjuring realistic traffic noises in the intro to “Freeway Jam”. Beck hasn’t collaborated with Hammer since 1985’s Flash album, but he called him up a couple of years ago, when Beck’s band was coming through New York. “He was just adamant that he didn’t want to play on the road anymore,” Beck explains, still sounding slightly dejected. “His wife was not too well, and plus he’d made a lot of money from, I guess, Miami Vice, so the underlying desire was not there to go out on the road. But he’s too good to sit around, I’ll tell you that.
“I wanted to find out if he had any tunes,” he adds, “because he writes great stuff for me. He was already involved in a project, but he did give us a couple, and one of them [“Even Odds”] was on the last album. But I could see that he was tied up in another world, you know, so I didn’t push it.”
Hammer may be out of the picture for now, but Beck has no complaints about the virtuoso instrumentalist that he is trading riffs with at the moment. He discovered eye-opening guitarist Jennifer Batten when she was touring in Michael Jackson’s band. “She was the girl with the big hair,” he remarks with a chuckle, “and I thought, ‘God, you know, I could use a fiery guitar player in the band.’ She’s a star, and also being a girl, that puts a whole different spin on things, you know.
“I don’t know why she wants to waste her life with me,” he adds with a laugh. “But she sort of dragged me out of retirement in some ways. I mean, I would have formed a band eventually, but she actually got me off the ground quicker.”
Although Batten played guitar and MIDI guitar on Beck’s 1999 CD, Who Else!, and toured with him extensively after its release, there’s little of her recorded work on his new disc, You Had It Coming. That album is mostly the work of Beck, programmer Aiden Love, and producer Andy Wright, but Batten does get credit for writing the opening track, “Earthquake”—originally titled “Gnasher”—and she snuck a few hot licks in there for good measure.
“She does some really raving stabs on the opening song,” explains Beck, “but the whole idea of the album was that we didn’t want to use any prewritten songs—they were all brewed in the studio, in an editing suite, which was a part of the writing process. What I wanted to get away from was the sort of formulated, contrived sound. I wanted kind of a wild house party, you know.”
The devastating “Earthquake” starts things off on an intense note; tracks like the gnarly “Dirty Mind”—and a feverish, tribal version of Muddy Waters’s “Rollin’ and Tumblin’ ”—further display Beck’s innate heavy-metal capabilities. But he’s always been one to balance fury and finesse, so it’s no surprise when, in the midst of all this techno-tinged cacophony, he sets a tune like “Blackbird”, which sees him playfully jamming along for 90 seconds with the recorded chirps of an unnamed feathered friend. And then there’s the spirit-lifting version of Indian musician Nitin Sawhney’s “Nadia”, which Beck considers the standout track on the CD. “It’s got a flowing Indian melody over a very very hip groove,” he says, “which I thought was very attractive. It was also the hardest thing to learn. To try and copy a traditional Indian vocalist was a real challenge.”
While Beck’s recent explorations in what he calls “an oddball sort of music” obviously limit his likelihood of topping the charts, the Who Else! CD did garner him a Grammy nomination last year. He didn’t feel burned, however, when that trophy—along with a suitcaseful of others—went to the long-overlooked Carlos Santana. “It went to the best,” affirms Beck. “I mean, Carlos, just for his longevity and the way he’s stayed loyal to everybody in music, and the way he’s passionate, deserves a Grammy just for that alone.
“And I didn’t feel that my album was really justified [in being nominated],” he adds. “It was just a smudge, you know, a bootprint of me comin’ back, that was all it really was.”
As one would expect of a player of Beck’s stature, he’s had the opportunity to play with some of the most revered rock guitarists in the world. In the booklet for the 1991 boxed set Beckology, he is pictured on-stage with Eric Clapton (whose place he took in the Yardbirds in 1964), Jimmie Page (who joined Beck in that band for a brief time in ’66), and Stevie Ray Vaughan (they shared the stage in ’89 on the legendary Fire & Fury tour). But when I ask Beck to name the one living player he’d most love to jam with, he doesn’t hesitate.
“I still favour John McLaughlin as probably the greatest player around,” he says. “All the others are just huge stars that everybody loves because they’re fantastic, you know, but I think John needs a mention because he just stays underground. He doesn’t encroach on rock ’n’ roll or the blues as much; he plays wonderful jazz guitar in his own style. And then the next minute he’s playing with Indian guys with tabla and clay pots. He’s just amazing.”
Beck’s been known to amaze people himself. And to dazzle, bewilder, and confound. If you saw him pull off the rapturous “Cause We’ve Ended as Lovers” at the Queen E. on his 1999 tour, you know what I’m talking about. They used to claim that Clapton was God, but I’ve always had faith in a higher power. Still, it’s not as if the guitar is Beck’s sole passion in life. When he isn’t getting scary on the frets, he’s been known to spend days and months holed away, tinkering with his collection of vintage cars. And even though he’s regarded as one of the pioneers of distortion—and has a serious case of tinnitus to show for it—the roar of a well-honed engine isn’t what draws Beck to the garage.
“Of course, everybody who’s into cars loves that,” says the 56-year-old rocker, “but from my angle it’s not necessarily the finished product of the powerful hot rod, it’s more the privacy of my situation. I’ve got a full workshop with everything to facilitate building a car, and it’s a way of getting away from everything, really. It’s more of a peaceful thing rather than noisy for me.”
The serenity of Beck’s private auto shop has been broken by his own howls of pain, however. He nearly lost a thumb working on his vehicles in 1987, and more recently took a big chunk of skin off the back of his hand with a sandblaster, which he says was “a nuisance”. Hopefully, he’ll keep his mitts intact, because the electric-guitar freaks of the world would sorely miss them. As long as he’s got those magic fingers, you can bet that Jeff Beck will be searching for fresh ways to communicate through six strings.
“I’ve got a cutoff point,” he relates. “When I can’t play any more or any better, I just go look for new sounds.”
Jeff Beck sounds off on the things that enquiring minds want to know.
On his new touring drummer, Andy Gangadeen: “When I was auditioning he was the number one recommendation, but he was with the Spice Girls at the time, which is hard to believe when you hear him play.”
On his current interest in Indian music: “I think everything comes from Indian music. If you listen carefully to the way they play quartertones… You know, you can pretty much find any kind of music you want in Indian music, especially the new stuff that they’re comin’ out with.”
On seeing Roy Buchanan, to whom he dedicated “Cause We’ve Ended as Lovers”, play a ’70s concert in London, England: “He was with a band that seemed to be like a pickup band, and they were all drunk, and they didn’t do him any favours, really. Poor Roy, he was so kind and nice, he didn’t realize who he’d got in the band, I don’t think. He had his back to the audience most of the time. He was a troubled guy.”
On being afflicted with tinnitus: “I live in a very quiet house, and the tinnitus plays havoc sometimes. It’s murder, it is, because it’s only a psychological thing that is in there, but it’s there. Some people don’t care about it, and it goes away. It’s when you do care about it that it doesn’t seem to go away.”

Furlough, system pay cuts for teachers
For a Hall County teacher with a four-year degree and 10 years experience who regularly makes $46,924 a year:
With 2.4 percent pay cut: $45,797 ($1,127 less over 12 months)
With three days furlough: $45,073.77 ($723.23 less over four months)
Total cut: $1,850.23
Source: Hall County Deputy Superintendent Lee Lovett
Mimi Mathis, a school counselor at McEver Elementary, will collect a smaller paycheck today. So will most teachers in Georgia.
Pay cuts from three state-ordered furlough days as well as district-implemented pay cuts take effect today for teachers. The cuts from furloughs will be spread out evenly in monthly paychecks from September to December.
System pay cuts for teachers also are activated today and will last for the next 11 months. Pay cuts for administrators began in July.
All Hall County school system employees will see 2.4 percent less money in their paychecks due to system cuts and about 1.6 percent less due to furloughs, said Hall County schools deputy superintendent Lee Lovett.
Gainesville teachers will see $75 less in their paycheck today on top of furlough cuts, said Gainesville Superintendent Merrianne Dyer. Other Gainesville school system employees, such as bus drivers, will take a $10 pay cut monthly and will dodge furloughs because they work only when students attend school.
"I think everybody’s feeling uncertainty until we see that paycheck. How do we budget? How do we plan?" Mathis said. "I think everybody understands what’s happening with the economy and everybody has to do their fair share, but they don’t have to like it."
Lovett said for a Hall County teacher with a 4-year degree and 10 years of teaching experience, the cuts amount to a $1,850 loss this year.
Mathis, an educator of 13 years, said she’s grateful for her job as she sees so many others lose theirs, but worries the pay cuts are affecting her upcoming retirement.
"My retirement is based on my best years, and now my best years will be in the past," she said. "You think your retirement will be based on your last years, but that’s not the case with the current economy."
Dyer said a forum with the Georgia School Boards Association and legislators warned educators these may not be the only cuts to education and teacher salaries this fiscal year, which ends June 30.
"There’s more furloughs coming. There will be more cuts, and it may even impact student days," she said.
Hall County Assistant Superintendent Richard Hill said educators around the state also will experience an increase in premiums of 10 percent across all health care plan options according to a memo from the Georgia Department of Community Health.

No false positives can be noticed in Reimage Plus scans. The only thing that might be disappointing – better detection algorithm used by the paid version of the software. That is kind of unfair for users deciding whether to purchase the program or not, since the end product will be different (promised to be better).
One of the biggest advantages over other similar tools is a dedicated version for Mac. Reimage is a great option if you are looking for a software for Mac. It will easily get rid of all unwanted applications which were either installed by a user intentionally or accidentally.
Additionally it cleans browsing history, fixes errors and helps users to get rid of cached space. You can use this tool daily to check your system and keep it running fast and smooth. Reimage for Mac does not provide security service. Therefore, you should get a reliable antivirus too. Also, not every system repair tool can offer you help with Android OS, but that’s not the case with Reimage.
The program is able to help users who have Android devices. If you are worried whether all apps that you have installed on your device are safe to use or not, you should consider getting Reimage for Android. Once installed, the program will scan your device and identify problems. It detects malicious apps and helps to clean what occupies much memory on your device, like call/texts history, cached memory and so on.
The good thing about Reimage for Android is that you don’t need to pay anything for using its service. So if you are tired of having problems with your phone or tablet, do not hesitate and go for this tool.
Probably the weakest link in this software is a poor customer support. Compared to the support of SpyHunter or Malwarebytes, Reimage repair has some space for improvement. Basically all you can do to get in touch with professional technicians is to submit a ticket with their support help-desk and hope to get the answer anytime soon. However, it should be sufficient if you are not expecting someone to answer the same minute.
Other not so bright point – automatic scans every time you launch the program. Yes, it won’t cause you any problems to check the state of your system that often, but it’s really unnecessary. Luckily, the program doesn’t require a lot of CPU resources so it won’t hurt the performance of your system.
Overall, it’s a good product for the decent price. It is a head of majority of competition with an ability to solve all-around problems and cross-platform availability makes it even more attractive to everyday users.

How to fit your big personality into a small dorm room in a grown-up way.
Image courtesy of College Benefits Research Group.
By your senior year, you’ve grown and changed in ways that your freshman self never would’ve imagined. You’re more experienced, mature, and worldly. Shouldn’t your dorm room decor reflect that?
We’re here to help you keep your dorm room decor matching both your personality and the more mature version of you.
We can do better than this! Image courtesy of Pinterest.
An Athletic Dorm Room Aesthetic
If athletics is the most important part of your college life, it’s still okay to display that in your dorm room decor as a senior. We wouldn’t want to deprive you of showing off your proudest moments and your accomplishments– maybe just update the way in which you execute it, without adding clutter to an already-small space.
We’re guessing that as an athlete, you’ve probably got a few trophies sitting around. Are they crammed onto your desk shelf or chest of drawers? Cluttered haphazardly on a closet shelf? Show them off properly– maybe not all at once, but the ones that you’re most proud of– by getting a glass case or a shelf extender and placing them out where you can see them. Nab a few photo frames that complement the trophies– keep them sleek and glossy in tones of silver, dark gold, or black– and display some of your favorite team or athletic moments. Any medals that you’ve won will look nice draped over the corner with the medal propped against the frame for visibility. Keep everything dusted and tidy.
Freshman, you may have plastered their side of the dorm in sports posters, but senior you know that the fragile paper rips unless it’s protected. Spend the extra money to have them framed properly– or ask for it for a birthday or holiday– especially if they’re signed. Try to use frames that match and won’t go out of style. Use command hooks and a leveler to hang them evenly and straight on your wall. Try to leave equal space between them, or group framed pictures of your teammates, friends, and family around them. Be sure those walls are cleaned before you use the 3M Command hooks, or they won’t stick properly! Keep a Swiffer duster on hand to maintain the glass’s shine.
The old you may have thought that throw pillows in the shape of your favorite sports objects or mascots looked cute piled on the bed, but senior you know that looks childish and chintzy. Instead, find bedding in the color scheme of your favorite team, and find throw pillows to match. If nostalgia won’t let you part with the mascot pillow, it’s not completely out of the question to pop it on top or tuck it in on the side of the other throw pillows as an accent. The point is that it shouldn’t be the focal point. There are some retailers who sell throw pillows that look like sports team jerseys– one of those would look snazzy against plain throw pillows in solid team colors.
The idea behind making athletic work as a dorm room decor is to keep it simple, clean, and less-is-more. It’s not about curbing your enthusiasm– it’s about finding more sophisticated ways of expressing your athletic style that matches your age.
Dorm room windows are often an overlooked area when decorating. Turn them into a canvas for art! This window used cellophane cut-outs, but you could use washable paint or window markers! Image courtesy of My Kid Craft.
Artsy Dorm Decor
If you’re the artsy type, the 3M Command hooks and a level will be your best decorating buddies.
By now, you’ve developed specific tastes in art styles and their creators. You’ve either painted or acquired some paintings or prints that you’d like to hang on your walls. To keep your collection looking tidy and grown-up, make sure that prints are framed and any paintings that aren’t mounted on stretchers have frames. Try to pick frames that complement each other– they don’t have to all match if that’s not your preference– so that the overall look is still cohesive.
Clean your walls really well and let them dry completely. Take your level and a pencil– trust us, you really need a pencil and not something else– and mark out where you want your pictures to hang with a straight pencil line where the top of the painting should sit. Place your 3M Command Hook in the middle of the line, so that the top of the backing sits just underneath the pencil line. Practice hanging the pictures, using your level to ensure they are straight until you like their arrangement. Then clean off the pencil lines with cleaner or rubbing alcohol and hang your pictures in place! Hanging them this way ensures that they look professional and grown-up instead of haphazard and thoughtless.
For a whimsical touch, you can hang a canopy above your bed using 3M Command hooks and a little help from a ladder (if a stepping stool doesn’t do the trick, ask facilities if you can borrow one). Be choosy about your canopy, because they can quickly look childish– pick a color, but the fabric and style should say luxury. Think silk, velvet, or satin instead of tulle, mesh or ruffles. If it seems to plain, consider adding iron-on appliques or– for a more exotic look– pieces of tiny jewelry like earrings or rings. Shiny beads also work, but stay away from lights, glitter, and sequins as they can quickly turn chintzy and cheap-looking.
If your dorm room has windows, use them as your canvas! Crayola Window Markers are a quick and easy way to express yourself artistically and yet washes off easily with water followed by a quick swipe of glass cleaner. Keep it fun and simple with doodles, classic with stained glass window designs copied from the masters, or pastoral with landscapes. Let your imagination run wild– and get your roomies in on the action too! They also work on tin foil, so labeling leftovers is a cinch!
We really appreciate the color scheme and minimalist approach to the decor in this room. Image courtesy of Artsy.
Minimalist Decor for a Decluttered Dorm
Does clutter make you nervous? Do you have a capsule wardrobe? Do you hate being bogged down with lots of things on your shelves? You might be a minimalist.
So how does a minimalist decorate?
The two may seem mutually exclusive, but not necessarily. Minimalism isn’t about having spare, blank spaces so much as space gives meaning to what’s occupying it. Keep your decor paired down and simply– focus on things that keep you organized, like a clock and some shelves instead of art or posters on your wall. Or if you’d like some color and pattern, pick prints by some of the great Minimalist painters such as Agnes Martin or Sol LeWitt. You could also DIY a minimalist mural with washi tape if it’s allowed by resident life.
Express yourself through your bedding as well. Many retailers carry bedding sets– like this one from Target’s Room Essentials– that offer simple pre-coordinated color schemes. Enhance the set with a throw pillow or two in a contrasting or complementing color to create warmth and softness in an otherwise plain room, yet without creating clutter.
Now there’s a couple of roomies who know how to decorate for themselves AND each other! See how they’ve combined their two personalities into their decor, while still producing a cohesive room? Image courtesy of Pinterest.
Go Global in a Small Space
This is probably the most unique and interesting way to decorate your small dorm room. If you can, buy your decor and bedding fair trade and really embody the global mindset.
All over the world, each culture has its own unique textiles, and the fabric is the easiest way to decorate any space. Obviously, the easiest way to accomplish this is with bedding– pick a color palette and then go wild with patterns and textures! Work in layers with a sheet set and your preference of quilt or comforter, and then add throw blankets and pillows. We love that World Market sells sets of pillowcases where you can mix and match the patterns in a cool or warm color palette.
You can also hang textiles on the wall for an interesting take on art– this is particularly useful if you have an outside wall that needs some extra insulation. You can frame it, but you can actually use printed cotton and loads of spray starch to use it as wallpaper. This technique will only work on smooth, clean surfaces so if your dorm room walls are textured it won’t work.
For a quick, magical-looking curtain set take strips of fabric in different yard widths and similar lengths and tie them onto a curtain rod, dowel rod, or string. Vary the colors, patterns, solids, and types of fabric for an extra cool touch. Then use 3M Command hooks to secure the rod or string. (If your dorm room has a curtain rod, just use that). This can also work across spaces to divide the room up if you and your roomies need some extra privacy.
Your floor deserves some attention, too. All across the world, people are obsessed with covering their floors– with lacquered wood designs, pillows, and rugs. Chances are your dorm room has a tile or hardwood floor, so it can be cold to walk around in bare feet– and who wears dirty shoes past the door? (Tracking in who-knows-what-you-walked-in?! No way! Leave a shoe rack by the door and keep those floors clean!) Throw some rugs down and give yourself something soft to walk upon. We like an upcycled sari rug or woven cotton rug, but due to the nature of rugs being highly textured anything will work in a pinch. The point is to cover the walking area so that a) you don’t walk on a cold floor and b) you add metaphorical warmth too.
If you’re a traveler, frame maps of the countries to which you’ve traveled and marked the places you’ve visited with a dot or a tiny footprint. Frame them and hang the maps on the walls and surround them with framed pictures from your travels or memorabilia such as jewelry or money you never exchanged currency.
Lights also play a huge part in world cultures. Buy a variety of cute glass or paper lanterns and use led tea lights or votives to create a warm atmosphere.
Look at all of the elements that came together to form a really cool dorm room– the decorative vase, the mixed prints on the bedding, the unique jewelry organization– all things that scream personality in a sophisticated way in a small space. Image courtesy of Stomo.co.
Something else to consider when decorating your room is how it smells. Most college dorms do not allow candles or incense– and Glade sprays are utterly wretched– so how are you going to create the perfect scented atmosphere in which to live out the last of your college days? Try a wax warmer– check with resident life first– that uses a lightbulb instead of a candle to melt the wax. Alternatively, if your dorm uses radiator heat, place the scented wax in a terra cotta planter dish (available at craft and garden stores) and pop it on or under the radiator. (We recommend under so it doesn’t spill.) Try to purchase wax melts that have a high essential oil content and not those mysterious ingredients labeled “fragrance” or “perfume.” Scents we recommend: cinnamon for comfort without sleepiness, lemongrass for perkiness, lavender for relaxation, or a seasonal scent. You can also DIY some with soy or beeswax, some grapeseed or other scentless oil, essential oils to your liking, a glass bowl, and a microwave. Handle with care, though!
We hope that these ideas inspire you to create a homey, comfortable dorm room for your senior year. If you use any of our ideas, please show us and tag us in the comments below!

Optimization of Degrader Integration, Beam Injection and B-field Measurements
The optimization of degrader integration, improved beam injection, and high precision magnetic field measurements will be studied in this AVA project. These techniques and associated hardware developments will allow performing antihydrogen experiments with significantly higher efficiency and thus benefit all trap-based developments within the network.
A non-destructive beam counter will be prototyped for quantifying antiprotons extracted from the catching trap. In addition, non-destructive diagnostics for trapped plasma modes will be used to characterize particle temperature and perform in situ measurements of magnetic field critical to precision microwave and optical spectroscopy.
In order to mitigate the issues of magnetic fields, a technique for extracting antiprotons from a high magnetic field region to a low field Paul trap will be developed to use as a compact, zero magnetic field antiproton source. This requires ambitious femto-Coulomb charge-sensitive devices operating in the penning traps used for antihydrogen trapping techniques. Future high precision measurements on antihydrogen are likely to require greatly reduced magnetic fields, and development towards extracting antiprotons into zero-field regions will open new possibilities in precision antimatter research. These developments are critical for the success of performing both antimatter gravitation and hyperfine measurements on trapped antihydrogen and hence will be useful also to the other projects within AVA.

Often we talk about the choice you make for fear as “wrong, false, untrue or unreal.”
But what if the choice for fear is perfect?
Maybe where you are just now in your life is perfect even if it is a result of many fearful choices.
The choice for fear is a perfect if you want to feel disconnected from Love, to feel alone and separate and to experience being different and in competition and conflict with others. Fear the perfect choice for all this and then you judge yourself for what you have done. You judged yourself for making a fearful choice and then project that judgement onto others. You get even further into the drama as you criticise and blame others. Then there seem no way out. And so you end up with a perfect experience of disconnection form love.
The power of you choice is so strong that had to experience what you wanted.
And when you are able to see the perfection of it you will realise that love is still there beside you.
You are not lost in fear and when you see everything is perfect.
Then at that moment you are able to decide you no longer want the experience of separation. It has nothing else to teach you. It’s over. You’re no longer caught up in the drama and you are ready to let it go. When you’re not being afraid of fear, justifying your judgements or being hard on yourself, your experience of separation disappears.
You then see a world that is perfect.
That is a miracle choice.

It is estimated that in 2011 the cumulative amount of gold that has been mined throughout history surpassed five billion ounces. This is an astounding amount of gold. Interestingly, 90% of it, or 4.5 billion ounces of gold, is estimated to have been mined since 1900. Attached here is a chart that shows Cumulative World Gold Production and Its Distribution: How much has been mined, and where it is believed to exist.
Nearly all of this gold is estimated to be relatively available. Two billion ounces are held in gold bullion and coin form by investors and central banks. Another 2.3 billion ounces are in jewelry, religious objects, and decorative objects. Only about 530 million ounces, or slightly more than 10%, are estimated to have been lost. This chart and data are from the CPM Group Gold Yearbook 2012, released 27 March 2012, and available at CPM Group’s website.
On 17 May CPM Group will release its Silver Yearbook 2012. In that report we will show that cumulative world silver production is estimated to have surpassed 50 billion ounces in 2011, ten times as much as gold. In stark contrast to gold, about 46% of the silver mined throughout history is estimated to be lost or undetermined in its location. People will lose silver, or use in it an industrial or household application from which it does not get recovered (e.g. mirrors). People tend not to lose gold.
Notes: Official stocks include holdings of central banks, the International Monetary Fund, European Central Bank, and the Bank for International Settlements. Total disposition may not equal cumulative production due to rounding and other discrepancies in the historical data. The distribution of 154 million ounces of pre-1800 production is not able to be discerned. Additionally, the assumptions have been made that most of the gold recovered from scrap since 1977 has been from jewelry and decorative objects and the metal thus recovered largely was used in the manufacture of new jewelry.
Where does this data come from? It is a rich tradition. In the 1960s Harry Oppenheimer pulled together a team of economists and statisticians to develop estimates of how much gold had been mined through history and its rough disposition. The postwar Bretton Woods dollar-gold international currency regime was shaking to pieces and clearly was going to fail. He wanted to know if Anglo American Gold could do for gold what DeBeers did for diamonds: Serve as the buyer or seller of last resort, and thereby stabilize (if not control) the price of gold. The answer to that question was how much gold was out there in the world, and who held it. If there was a lot of gold in bullion form, readily available to the market, and it was widely dispersed among people and governments, then the gold market could not be managed as the diamond market was.
The team he created developed estimates of gold supply and demand. (They actually were employed by Charter Consolidated, one of the Oppenheimer family companies.) The reports they produced initially were for internal corporate use, but later were sold and distributed through the South African Chamber of Mines. In time Anglo American decided to stop financing this research program, and the team was disbanded. The task of annually updating the Charter Consolidated annual gold reports was scooped up by the rival mining house Consolidated Gold Fields, which did an exemplary job until it was disbanded itself after Hanson plc acquired the company in 1989. The research team was shared in parts by Consgold and J. Aron, which in the late 1960s also was establishing a commodities research department (the percursor to CPM Group).
Since the late 1960s the J. Aron Research Department and, after we left J. Aron/Goldman Sachs en masse in 1986, the CPM Group research team has diligently updated this data series each year.

Massage therapist Mary Lundberg, who specializes in providing massage to musical performers and other celebrities, was profiled in the news recently.
The Minneapolis/St. Pau-area newspaper Vadnais Heights Press reported Sept. 4 that Lundberg has massaged, among others: Bruce Springsteen, JayZ, Johnny Cash, the Grateful Dead, the Carter Sisters, Aerosmith, Mickey Rooney, Jon Bon Jovi, the Eagles, and members of Riverdance and the Danish Ballet.
“While curing [sic] the likes of James Taylor and Faith Hill is a thrill, so too are her everyday clients, she said,” the newspaper noted. “With her repeat clients she gets the reward of witnessing how her services progressively improve their lives, she said. Despite all the stars she’s touched, her most cherished work is helping soothe a church friend who’s battling cancer.”

Individuals with NES usually have trouble falling asleep and/or staying asleep. NES can lead to chronic sleep deprivation as it does disturb sleep. Prolonged sleep deprivation has serious consequences including decreased alertness when awake, impaired memory, inability to concentrate, slower reflexes, hindered hand-eye coordination and a greater risk of automobile accidents. Some theories indicate that those with NES self-medicate with night eating, especially carbohydrates, to make themselves fall asleep and quell negative emotions. Carbohydrates elevate serotonin levels. Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that promotes feelings of well-being, calms anxiety and helps with falling asleep.
Abnormal hormone levels have also been linked to NES. Three major hormones have been linked with NES: melatonin, leptin and cortisol. Those with NES are thought to have low melatonin levels. Melatonin is a hormone that helps people fall asleep and stay asleep at night. Leptin, a hormone that suppresses appetite, drops at night in those with NES. Most people have heightened levels of leptin at night which suppresses appetite and allows uninterrupted sleep through the night. Cortisol, the stress hormone, is thought to be elevated at night in individuals with NES. Eating at night is associated with emotional distress.
Many individuals with NES have tried and failed at dieting. They describe their nighttime eating patterns as “uncontrollable”. Individuals with NES are often overweight or obese as a result of their nocturnal eating patterns. Being overweight or obese makes them susceptible to health problems such as high blood pressure, heart problems, stroke, arthritis, diabetes, certain types of cancer, fertility issues, gout, fatty liver disease, gallbladder disease and respiratory diseases including sleep apnea.
Some morbidly obese people afflicted with NES, undiagnosed or unaware of their eating disorder, seek bariatric surgery as a solution to losing excess weight. Unfortunately, bariatric surgery does not cure the underlying eating disorder. If left untreated, post-bariatric surgical patients with NES can gain their weight back.
Look for these signs if you suspect you or a loved one has NES:
- majority of daily calories consumed after dinner
- eating foods high in carbohydrates, sugar and calories at night
- waking up to eat at night
- lack of appetite at breakfast
- guilt, shame or denial about food consumed at night
- difficulty falling and/or staying asleep; insomnia
- signs of sleep deprivation
- stress or irritability, especially at night
- pattern of eating at night continues for at least two months
If you or a loved one exhibits signs of NES, please know that you are not alone. According to some studies, NES affects 1-2% of the American population. Recognition of Night Eating Syndrome as a valid eating disorder is contributing to a growing number of studies by major institutions and more information on the topic. While NES has only been in the spotlight relatively recently, Night Eating Syndrome was first described in an article in the American Journal of Medicine in 1955.
Strong links between obesity and NES are being discovered as this eating disorder receives more attention. One study claims 27% of those seeking bariatric surgery have NES. Bariatric surgery only treats the effects of NES; it does not address the underlying disease, emotional issues or disordered eating.
Night eating disorder treatment is available for NES. If you or a loved one exhibits signs of Night Eating Syndrome for two or more months, don’t suffer in silence. Make a phone call and seek professional treatment.

InnoDB in Cloud Web Hosting
While InnoDB is either not offered or it is a paid upgrade with many hosting service providers, it is part of the standard set of services offered with our cloud web hosting packages. If you would like to make use of a PHP-powered web application that needs InnoDB specifically, in order to be activated and to function properly, you will not have any obstacles as the database storage engine is available on our in-house built cloud platform. No matter if you set up a brand-new database and activate an application manually or take advantage of our one-click application installer software instrument, InnoDB will be selected automatically by our platform as the default engine if the specific app needs InnoDB rather than MyISAM. In addition to the remarkable database failure recovery that InnoDB offers, we also carry out daily database backups, so that we can quickly recover any MySQL database in your shared account.
InnoDB in Semi-dedicated Hosting
All our Linux semi-dedicated hosting include InnoDB and you’ll be able to make the most of all the options offered by this MySQL database storage engine with any script-powered web application that requires it. InnoDB is among the engines that are available on our cloud web hosting platform, so the one that will be used depends on the particular app’s requirements. You won’t have to do anything manually in order to enable InnoDB, since it will be set as the default engine when you install an application – whether manually or using our 1-click application installer tool. To be on the safe side, we will make regular backups of all your databases, so if something goes wrong after some update or if you remove some content unintentionally, we will be able to get your database back to the way it was on any of the previous 7 days.
InnoDB in VPS
If you order a virtual private server with our Hepsia Control Panel, the InnoDB database storage engine will be an indivisible part of the standard software pack that will be pre-installed on your server before we hand it over to you. You won’t need to configure anything manually and you’ll be able to install and use any open-source script-driven software application that requires InnoDB when your VPS server is set up, which takes no more than 1 hour after the order submission process itself. A few engines are available, so whenever you set up a MySQL database via the Hepsia Control Panel, a specific engine will be selected once the app activation commences and our system will recognize which engine is required by the app in question. In case you have to use MyISAM, for example, you will not have to do anything different from installing the chosen app, whether manually or using our application installer tool.
InnoDB in Dedicated Hosting
All Linux dedicated hosting that are ordered with our custom Hepsia hosting Control Panel include a software package that is pre-installed and among everything else, you will get the InnoDB storage engine, so you will not have to add it manually if you want to use open-source PHP scripts that need it. All it takes to activate such a script is to set up a new database and to initiate the setup – as soon as the script installation wizard acquires access to the database and starts entering data into it, InnoDB will be set as the default MySQL engine for this database provided that it is the one needed by the script. You’ll also be able to run scripts that require the other very popular MySQL engine – MyISAM, so you will not need to update any settings on the server. This will permit you to use different scripts on a single machine and to use it to its maximum capabilities.


Washington, Oct 15: The current first family of the United States, the Obama family, looks adamant to completely "destroy" chances of Donald Trump to set his foot in the Oval Office of the White House.
After the first lady Michelle Obama, President Obama took potshots at the Republican presidential nominee.
This is what Twitter had to say about Obama's recent remarks against Trump:
According to the Associated Press, as the presidential election draws to a close, Obama has increasingly embraced his role as troll-in-chief to the former reality star who hopes to succeed him in the Oval Office.
Blame the Republicans
Without mincing any words, Obama blamed GOP for Trump's rise. "The problem is, that they've been riding this tiger for a long time. They've been feeding their base all kinds of crazy for years primarily for political expedience. So if Trump was running around saying I wasn't born here, they were okay with that as long as it helped them with votes," Obama said at an event for the Ohio Democratic Party in Columbus.

Trump targets Obama
The Republican presidential nominee is not someone to keep quiet for a long time against his adversaries. In his usual "cheap" style, Trump wondered why President Obama hasn't been accused of sexual assault.
This is what Republican presidential nominee said about Obama:
"Look, Obama is an incompetent. He's an incompetent president. He doesn't know what he's doing, and he's out campaigning all day long. He's talking about me like he knows me. I don't know him; he doesn't know me.
Why doesn't some woman maybe come up and say what they say falsely about me, they could say about him? They could say it about anybody. They could say it about anybody. I'll tell you what, he better be careful, because they could say it about anybody. Anybody at all.
But Obama is an incompetent. As a president he's about as bad as it gets. Look at what's happening, how Iran is taunting us. Look at the world."
This is what a social media user had to say about Trump and his verbal diarrhea:
I hear Facebook is rolling out a new option where you can mark yourself "safe" from Donald Trump.— George Takei (@GeorgeTakei) October 15, 2016

Work-release participant sues sheriff, Palos Hills
Sun-Times Media Wire June 7, 2012 8:22PM
Updated: June 9, 2012 11:43AM
A man who participated in a work-release program run by the Cook County Sheriff’s office claims he suffered permanent injuries when a festival tent collapsed on him.
Philip Caldamone was apart of a work-release program for offenders when employees with the sheriff’s office told him to take down a tent during the Palos Hill Freedom Fest on July 11, 2011, according to a lawsuit filed Thursday in Cook County Circuit Court
Caldamone began taking the tent down when “severe weather and negligent construction” caused the tent to fall on him, the suit claims.
The suit claims employees with the sheriff’s office and the city of Palos Hills were “warned” multiple times about the weather and knew it would put Caldamone in “immediate danger.”
“This conduct would shock the conscience of any reasonable individual,” the suit states.
The suit also claims that a company that owned and constructed the tents did not adequately maintain or inspect the tents.
The three-count lawsuit seeks at least $150,000.
A spokesman for the sheriff’s office said he had not seen the lawsuit.
A representative for Palos Hills did not immediately return calls for comment.


Punjab Spends 300 Out Of 458 Billion Development Funds In Eight Months
Punjab Chief Minister Usman Bazdar has been under severe criticism from various political circles of the country for not being very much media savvy since he came to power. A recent report in the media shows that Punjab is the province which has utilized about 66% of the development budget during the first eight months of the current financial year.
Which reminds us of the idiom that actions speak louder than the words. This is highly commendable as in general, development funds are not fully utilized not only by the provinces but also by the federal government.
According to Sehar Iqbal, spokesperson of the planning and development department of the province, Rs. 458 billion was released for various departments of the province out of which Rs. 300 billion has been utilized.
He said that Chairman Planning and Development Board Abdullah Khan Sanbal was personally taking care of the whole process. That is why on the one hand the process of approval of development schemes is going on and on the other hand all the obstacles in the use of funds have been removed and Punjab has got a historic victory in this regard.
Sehar Iqbal told the media that the Provincial Development Working Party (PDWP) had several meetings and the result of these meetings was commendable performance of various departments.
Elaborating on the utilization of funds by various departments, a spokesperson of the provincial P&D department said that the school education department utilized 79% of its total 31.7 billion, for a total of Rs. 30.7 billion for the Department of Local Government and Community Development. Issued that used. 65% of its funds.
Similarly, the agriculture sector utilized 58% of the total Rs.29.9 billion, the Planning and Development Department utilized a total of Rs.26.1 billion which constitutes 84% of the total funds, and the Irrigation Department utilized 50% of the funds.
He said that other departments like primary and secondary health care, transport, higher education, industry, sports and youth affairs, environment and energy used their funds from 34% to 87%.
Commenting on the historic performance of Punjab in the form of proper utilization of funds, the Chairman Planning and Development Board said that the people of the province would reap real benefits from the work of various departments of the province.

In the last 10 years, there has been a paradigm shift in cloud computing
The major focus is on providing business agility and increasing the cost-effectiveness. If we talk about cloud computing, the unit of computing are becoming smaller and smaller. From on-premise, cloud, virtual machines, containers to serverless. This hype is turning into a reality.
In conjunction, the pricing models have also evolved. In traditional systems, the ratio at which the computing power was wasted was really high. For example, you were required to pay to the vendor regardless of the fact that your servers were used or not. However, in serverless computing, the pricing is calculated based on the execution time and the number of times your function is invoked. Since there are no upfront costs, the adoption of FaaS has accelerated.
Apart from the major serverless providers like Amazon Web Service, Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud Functions, there are many others who have jumped on the bandwagon, for example, OpenFaaS, Nuclio, Apache Openwhisk, etc. Let’s understand more about the current ecosystem of serverless.
Current Serverless Ecosystem
According to the research conducted by Gartner, Serverless has been one of the hottest cloud-related technology for a couple of years. AWS Lambda, FaaS offering from AWS, was launched in 2014 and since then the ecosystem is expanding at a rapid pace. Mainly because the providers are constantly improving their services or expanding their feature list.
Recently, RightScale 2018 State of the Cloud reported a 75% growth rate in serverless computing, retaining its position to #1. Also, reduction in cost is one of the major benefits that come with serverless technology as reported by Currents 2018.
Serverless architecture is redefining the way we develop our software products. This change is prerequisite due to various factors. For example, functions works in a decoupled manner and a high level of granularity.
If we speak about it in general terms, serverless predominantly changing the way software network, compute and share the database we’ve been incorporating so far. Let’s understand each point in brief:
API Gateway as a Communication Layer
Unlike the monolithic systems, communication layer between the frontend and backend is facilitated with the help of APIs. APIs work as a ‘front door’ for the serverless applications to access data and execute the business logic from the backend services. It connects the REST API endpoint with the business logic which carries out the requested task.
APIs let you create HTTP and HTTPs endpoints both. Most of the APIs accept various payloads. Some of these data formats are query string parameters, XML, JSON, etc. You can also declare any content type for your API’s response. Later, you can use the transform templates so that you can change the backend response into the desired format.
Computing Business Logic through Functions
FaaS works in a more decoupled and granular way. This means, unlike creating a single code base, FaaS required fragmented code block with unique functionalities. These code blocks when orchestrated together, work as a single application.
Instead of using VM or an instance to run your single code base, functions itself executes the code. However, you need to configure the memory size as per the requirement of the code block. There are few other abstractions as well, though, they are provider specific.
BaaS abstracts Database & Authentication Layer
To protect app’s security and make sure that the data is accessible to only trusted users, authentication plays a major role. In traditional systems, this role was executed through DBAs. In serverless architecture, this is facilitated through Backend as a Service.
Backend as a Service is typically a cloud-based distributed NoSQL database which removes the DBAs overhead. BaaS includes cloud infrastructure, push notifications, server code, user & file management, social network integrations and much more. All these services have their own APIs which allows an easy integration. This is a new way of managing a backend data which does not require developers to create new backend each time a new feature is added to the application.
In this age of constant innovation, winners will be those who will adopt the new technology and integrate them into their current solutions. Serverless is one of them!
Serverless is indeed on an evolutionary phase and new players are added every day. However, according to the current reports, the development graph seems to be exponential than parabolic. Adoption of a new technology like serverless is always difficult for established organizations. But with the understanding of use cases, you can significantly reduce the learning curve.
