Between the Lines Latest Post | Last 10 Posts | Archives StackSafe unveils virtualized staging and testing solution Posted in: IT Management Datacenter virtualization Demo 08 At Demo 08, StackSafe introduced its Test Center, which it claims is the first virtualized staging and testing solution for IT operations. According to the company, 65 percent of companies software changes the major cause of downtime, noting that changes after often not tested prior to deployment to production environments. It's the "patch and pray" approach. StackSafe imports live software systems into a virtualized sandbox to run a battery of tests on proposed changes for unexpected failures, interoperability issues, anomalies and performance problems.
Body Over Mind
As the weather starts improving, try parking the car a little farther than you usually do, or give it up completely on some days and take short walks to run your errands or to go to the mosque. Take the stairs instead of the elevator, going up quickly for a cardio workout, and climb the stairs two at a time for a great stretching exercise. (MJ) Fighting the FlabStaying healthy without piling on the poundsTHERE'S A HUGE difference between theory and practice when it comes to the Holy Month. All Muslims know that Ramadan is supposed to be 30 days of spirituality and self-sacrifice, a chance for one to cleanse both body and soul, but the majority of us tend to do just the opposite. From a health standpoint, what actually takes place during Ramadan is quite frightening. As soon as the hilal (crescent moon) has been spotted and the announcement of the start of Ramadan has been made, we all switch into ‘fasting mode,' which usually means three things: gastronomic overindulgence, sleep deprivation and marathon television viewing.
K-Fed: Brit To Cough Up?
Britney Spears may be heading back in the direction of the courtroom. This time it all involves a motion from Kevin Federline's lawyer regarding fees. TMZ reports that K-Fed's lawyer, Mark Vincent Kaplan, has filed a motion in which he asks that Brit pay attorney's fees. They say that if the motion is granted, Brit could have to cough up to the tune of $500,000 (around 250,000). They explain the breakdown as such: Mark was awarded $120,000 (around 60,000) for fees between 30th July and 8th October last year. Now, TMZ says, this time Mark is asking for fees in excess of $300,000 (around 150,000) for the period from 8th October 2007 to 24th January 2008. For fees he'll accumulate between now and the end of the custody trial, believed to be in April, they say he's asking for an excess of $100,000 (around 50,000).
A Market of Haves and Have-Nots
But Tuesday's session showed just how different the momentum leaders are. They kept rising while the others -- the have-nots - saw their technical buy signals erased. Another have vs. have-not condition dogging the market is the heavy numbers of new 52-week highs and new 52-week lows at the same time. While major indexes are still within spitting distance of all-time watermarks, the presence of all those new highs is to be expected. However, the number of stocks reaching 52-week lows is quite inconsistent with a healthy market. We need not get into the esoteric indicators that deal with such events but simply wonder why on average three to four percent of all issues traded each day are at the lowest point they've been in a year while the indexes are near their highs. Strength in the indexes is masking something wrong beneath the surface and we only have to look back to the July peak for the last time this condition existed.
