Gavin Newsom vetoed legislation that would have allowed some California cities to open supervised drug-injection sites as part of a pilot program meant to stem a rushing tide of fatal overdoses. Griffith Park, Pershing Square - what’s behind Los Angeles park names? Read more from The Los Angeles Times. Krupp believes people are drawn to the Zeiss because it looks like a classic telescope, unlike the new James Webb Space Telescope, which he says more closely resembles “an alien creature.” Looks aside, the James Webb has captured some incredible images. “You join that illustrious history tonight.” “More people have looked through it than any telescope in the world,” he boomed. A staff member grabbed a microphone to narrate the experience. I climbed a few steps to reach the telescope’s eyepiece, pointed at a star 25.3 light-years from Earth. The masked faces around me craned their necks to look at the metallic monstrosity. When I made it to the front of the line, I entered through a low doorway into the dome that houses the telescope. “We’ve been claiming that for a very long time, with the idea that if there were challengers wishing to take us down a notch or two, they’d do that,” Krupp said. He would be “surprised and disappointed” if someone proved him wrong, he said. Krupp, who has been director of the observatory since 1974, told me that he began advertising the Zeiss as the most looked-through telescope in the world about two decades ago. He shook his head when he found out that it was. “Is this the line?” asked a man wearing a Dodgers hat. ![]() Around me were sunglasses, cameras, backpacks and a mélange of languages and accents. ![]() “We really intend to put people’s eyeballs to the universe.”īy 7 p.m., dozens more people had lined up behind me, and the growing queue was cordoned off as if we were at an amusement park. “The real charm of the telescope is that people actually get to look through it, and that’s the fundamental principle of this place,” Krupp said.

This blog is a quick performance review of our new Intel® Purley-based Ceph RA featuring our fastest NVMe drive, the Micron 9200 MAX (6.4TB). But what if you absolutely need 3x replication minimum? How does that impact performance on our super fast all-NVMe Ceph reference architecture? I’m glad you asked. We'll talk more about other projects as we go along.There are reasons SSD guys like me usually test Ceph with 2x replication SSDs are more reliable than spinners, performance is better with 2x, and so on. Similarly, we have a project called Cinder, which manages block storage attachments to the compute machines. Then we have the project which manages networking related stuff called Neutron. That is, it determines which user has access to a project in your cloud and which user can do what. Then we have Keystone, which is responsible for authentication and authorization tasks. The first key project, which deals with computing, that is, managing the physical server and virtualization on top of it and all the virtual machine management tasks is called Nova. As we go along, each of these names will become more familiar to you. It's hard to remember the project names on first sight, but we'll introduce some of them here. I mentioned a collection of software projects. OpenStack now contains a global software community of developers and is used by corporations, service providers, researchers, and enterprise data center administrators and managers. Rackspace contributed their cloud files platform code to power the object storage part of OpenStack, while NASA contributed their Nebula platform code to power the compute part. Rackspace and NASA were the key initial contributors. You can view OpenStack as a collection of software projects that enterprises or service providers can use to set up and run their cloud compute and storage infrastructure. In the case of OpenStack, they really mean it. Most open source projects claim to have the simple design philosophy. When OpenStack first started, one of their key design principles was simple to implement and massively scalable. As you can see, such a system should, by definition, be scalable. That's what I call the operating system for your entire data center. Now imagine an operating system from which you can install new operating systems on some servers, configure storage from storage controllers, configure network parameters or networking switches and routers, all from one dashboard. As you've learned in this course, the operating system is your interface to talk to that specific hardware. Now what do I mean by that? When you buy a new switch or a router, for example, you can log into a switch, access its operating system, perform configurations like VLAN or other ACLs, and so on. I like to think of OpenStack as the operating system for your entire data center. Primary activities include organizing large scale test infrastructure, community management, and bringing together more than 20,000 open infrastructure enthusiasts each year at global events like the Open Infrastructure Summit, formerly called the OpenStack Summit. The goal of the OpenStack Foundation is to serve developers, users, and the entire open infrastructure ecosystem by providing a set of shared resources to build community, facilitate collaboration, and support integration of open source technologies. You can see some other key sponsors here, too. For more information about the foundation, just go to /foundation. ![]() IBM via Red Hat is an active member and a Platinum sponsor. The OpenStack Foundation oversees the global OpenStack project through community membership and sponsorship. OpenStack, as we've mentioned, is open source software that's released under the terms of the Apache license. The OpenStack software is designed to control large pools of server, storage, and networking resources throughout data center. ![]() OpenStack is a global collaboration of developers and cloud computing technologists working to produce a ubiquitous Infrastructure as a Service open source cloud computing platform for public and private clouds. Let's look at an overview of what OpenStack is. For your purposes, learning OpenStack would mean learning cloud computing in a non-proprietary manner. OpenStack is one of the most sought-after open source products in the world. This is based on an open source product called OpenStack. IBM PowerVC is a product that lets you do cloud type management of your IBM power system's servers. ![]() “COVID-19 has created enormous stress in people’s lives around the world, but it provided a unique opportunity to study how people remain resilient through such adversity,” Gur says. Resilience can improve coping abilities and mitigate negative emotions.The Lifespan Brain Institute-a collaboration of Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) and Penn Medicine scientists under the guidance of Raquel Gur, a professor of psychiatry neurology, and radiology-developed an online survey with CHOP’s Ran Barzilay, and Brown to investigate resilience during this unprecedented time. You can even make a cup of tea or a pot of coffee in a mindful way-something to slow down all of the ruminative thinking or worrying ahead,” Brown says. For some, that means taking a meditation practice, or it can be helpful to practice mindful walking or running. We now know that COVID can, in some cases, trigger a massive inflammatory response that can cause a lot of tissue damage throughout the body. “One of the beautiful things about mindfulness practice is that you can use it through a lot of different strategies. The brain fog people experience with long COVID is most likely a result of direct and indirect inflammatory effects on the brain, Giordano said. Mindfulness can pull on the prefrontal cortex-the region of the brain in charge of executive functioning-which can reduce emotional activation in the limbic system and help you stay calm and in the moment. Having trouble thinking and planning could be related to stress from the pandemic. For example, the well-known fight or flight response begins in the limbic system, triggering feelings of anxiety and fear. There are thousands of people who have that, said Dr. In patients with COVID-related brain fog, in addition to microglia, lymphocytes were also activated and actually increased in the brain 14, 15. Part of the problem is that brain fog is hard to define. The limbic system acts as a control center for feelings and reactions. Increasingly, Covid survivors say brain fog is impairing their ability to work and function normally. 2 days ago &0183 &32 Unfortunately, while brain fog is one of the most common long-term effects of Covid, it’s also one of the most poorly understood. ![]() Research suggests that the part of the brain called the limbic system is hyperactive during times of negative emotions and stress, explains Lily Brown, an assistant professor of psychology in psychiatry at the Perelman School of Medicine and director at the Center for the Treatment and Study of Anxiety. There are also smaller manifestations and symptoms of stress, including headaches, inability to focus, physical aches and pains, and lack of sleep. Overall, feelings of depression and anxiety are higher than ever before. While feelings of anxiety and concern are normal during a crisis like this, this stress can impact people in a variety of ways. Identity management needs to be centralized, but access must be federated into all the required locations. Running multiple identity services can be onerous, risky, and inefficient-and it can build back in some of the complexity you should be trying to eliminate. As you move some applications to the cloud, retire some applications in favor of Software as a Service (SaaS) offerings, or rewrite some applications completely, you will need to make several key decisions about user identity management. Probably the most important control you can put in place is managing user identity in your cloud environments. Fortunately, most infrastructure components are now available in the public cloud of your choice-and you can reuse your organizational knowledge, skills, and even policies in the cloud. If you want your application to thrive in the cloud, you need to move its supporting infrastructure with it. Even the basic load balancing services these applications require will be more complex than those needed by an application that was designed and born in the cloud. You need to treat them like the pampered pets they are, not like cattle.Įnterprise applications ported into cloud environments need much of the same care, management, and application delivery services (security, availability, and performance) that they receive in the data center. They keep state locally, they take time to come online after the underlying server boots, and sudden shutdowns will probably result in inconsistent data. Most enterprise applications were not designed with cloud architectures and methodologies in mind. But it can backfire if you are trying to move an application that was born and raised in the cosseted luxury of the data center into the cold, hard world of the public cloud. Don't upgrade operating systems or software just deploy new instances and terminate the old ones. If a server instance is functioning incorrectly, don't waste time fixing it-just kill it and redeploy. The concept of treating servers like cattle is often seen as intrinsic to cloud architectures. But if you're going to have a successful "lift and shift" migration, there are a few rules you should follow-and one you are going to need to break. There are a number of good reasons to explore this "lift and shift" model: It's estimated to be about 10x cheaper, 1 it's almost always a lot quicker, and in some cases it's simply not worth it to rewrite an application with a limited lifespan. Alternatively, you can simply pick up applications running in your data center and drop them into a public cloud without making large design or platform changes. You can completely re-architect the application for a cloud environment, which can result in a sleek, streamlined user experience, but can often be a time- and labor-intensive process. Migrating an application to the public cloud involves some choices. If you no longer need to manage the basic infrastructure that runs your IT, you can focus more on the security, performance, and availability of the applications that represent the real value IT brings to the enterprise.īut before you get to this nirvana of virtualized, maintenance-free infrastructure, you are going to have to work out the best way to move your applications into their new home. Getting rid of this operational headache and financial drain in exchange for a new world where an old server or application can be retired with a simple API call often makes financial and operational sense. Managing the lifecycle, maintenance, and physical housing of IT infrastructure demands skills, time, and budget that can detract from the overall mission of IT organizations: providing the applications that run the business. While these servers are running the enterprise, they are also consuming power, making heat, and demanding expensive support contracts. It enables them to dispose of the fixed costs and assets involved in running large-scale IT infrastructure, including expensive data centers packed with equipment of different generations and levels of supportability. For many organizations, moving enterprise applications to the public cloud can be a very attractive proposition.

At the highest level of racing though, intact males have great economic value at stud, so they are often retired after only a few years of racing. While male and female horses do not exhibit sexual dimorphism as obviously as human athletes, male horses are considered more aggressive racers and generally have a significant competitive advantage. Most race horses and race winners are male horses (either intact males or geldings). For example, champion hurdler Hurricane Fly won a then-record 22 Grade One races over his ten-year career. Jumpers tend to be older than their flat racing counterparts and can have much longer careers, making it possible to earn a large number of wins. The two main forms of Thoroughbred horseracing are flat racing and hurdle or steeplechase (jumping) races over obstacles. Such speeds may also be achieved by elite racehorses during the stretch drive. Thoroughbred Winning Brew holds the Guinness world record for the fastest speed from the starting gate for a Thoroughbred racehorse, at 70.76 km/h (43.97 mph) over two furlongs, although Quarter Horses attain higher speeds over shorter distances than Thoroughbreds. Timeform ratings, introduced in 1948, and Beyer Speed Figures, introduced in the United States in 1992, are relatively recent attempts to compensate for such variables. Comparison of raw times is generally unreliable between horses of different eras or even over different racecourses due to a variety of factors such as the racing surface and the pace at which the race is run. It is common to compare racehorses on multiple factors such as their overall race record, the quality of the horses they beat and the brilliance of their wins. Note though that many champions do not appear on the list as an unexpected defeat may be caused by many factors such as injury, illness, going, racing tactics and differences in weight carried, the latter being particularly significant in North America and Australia where handicaps are common even at the highest level of racing. The list of leading Thoroughbred racehorses contains the names of undefeated racehorses and other horses that had an outstanding race record in specific categories.

The road to nowhere leads to me simply tells you that your life depends on you. Could it be a dream? And if so, whose dream? It is what I know and what I experience and not a theory. A life predicted, decisions I make based on probability and desires, because, the road to nowhere leads to me. The strongest will survive, but my mind tells me, what is the point of it all? Why should I care about things that I don’t know, yet all I have been through is a cycle. Religion says, do good, be good and when your physical body gives in there’s a better place for your soul. “The wreckage of our past that keeps haunting us, just won’t leave us alone.” It is easy for us to tell ourselves that we should let the past go and live for the moment, but can you tell that to a person that is struggling with addiction? Gambling, drugs, sex, a bad relationship? Can you tell someone who has always been at the losing end of life that tomorrow is going to be a good day? It is easy to have hope and spread it to others, yet we don’t know what tomorrow holds for us. The past that we are not proud of and the choices that we made which now feel like a mistake. The ugliness of ourselves that we love to hide. However, the good thing is that there’s a lesson to be learned from it. I will still make decisions today that I won’t be proud of in future. But now that I am aware of what I didn’t like about my past, can I do my present differently? Perhaps, but still I have learned a lot from my mistakes and also at the time that was what felt like the best thing to do, so the road to nowhere leads to me. Am I proud of it? Well, some yes and some, not really. Some parts of our lives seem like a cycle that is repeated over and over.Īre we able to break the wheel of misfortune? Are we able to milk out all the good parts of our lives and stretch them out as far as possible? In the opening line of the lyrics to this song, “I was looking back on my life and all the things I have done to me,” I can’t help but think that all I have had to go through have been a fault of my own. These words cut deep through my heart like a sword. The lyrics to this song are a mirror to what goes through our minds when contemplating the purpose of our lives, the reasons of our being and if whatever we do with our lives is worth anything. Horns up metal lovers for this time we are delving into the lyrics of Ozzy Osbourne in trying to understand ourselves, our lives, our regrets, what we have been through and where we think we are headed, for what is metal without Ozzy?
