Standing Cloud Platform & Admin Console Webinar

On Wednesday February 29th, I’ll be conducting a webinar to provide a complete understanding of the Standing Cloud platform and more specifically… the admin console. Register for the webinar here.

The 45 minute session will cover the steps involved to provision new servers, install applications, as well as demonstrate all of the features and functionality available through the Admin Console.

The webinar is scheduled for 11 a.m. (Mountain Standard Time). By the time we complete the session you’ll have all of the information you need to quickly install new applications such as WordPress, Drupal, and OpenVBX to new or existing cloud servers. You’ll understand the strengths and core functionalities of the Standing Cloud platform.. as well as the limitations.

The first 30 minutes will cover the inner workings of the Standing Cloud admin console. Following that, there will be 15 minutes of Questions & Answers.

Note: Several servers and applications will be pre-installed on a couple of different hosting providers to facilitate demonstrating several actions.

Happy Birthday Frank

by jhand

It’s crazy to think that Frank Zappa would have turned 71 today. Born on December 21st, 1940.. and passing on December 4th, 1993 .. Frank was one of the most brilliant and respected musicians, composer, song-writer, guitarists, and producers to ever walk this earth.

Check out this “Crossfire” episode where Frank sets it straight regarding censoring music.

Ever since taking a “History of Frank Zappa” course for an entire semester at Indiana University I have been fascinated by this man. I’ve made it my life goal to collect every FZ album he’s ever recorded.. on vinyl. To date, I have collected 28 of the 60 albums that he recorded with his band “The Mothers of Invention”. There are also several compilations, singles, greatest hits, symphony tributes, and odds and ends albums that I hope to add to my collection as well.
Here’s the list of what I’ve collected (so far):
______________________________________

Frank Zappa Meets the Mothers of Prevention
Mothermania (Best of the Mothers)
Rosy & Elsewhere
Live in New York
Overnite Sensation
Strictly Commercial
Chunga’s Revenge
Just Another Band From LA
One Size Fits All
You Are What You Is
The Grand Wazoo
Absolutely Free
Burnt Weeny Sandwich
Sleep Dirt
Hot Rats
The Man From Utopia
Apostrophe
Fillmore East – June 1971
Uncle Meat
Tinseltown Rebellion
Sheikn Yerbouti
Zoot Allures
Waka/Jawaka
200 Motels
Jazz From Hell
Ship Arriving Too Late to Save a Drowning Witch
Them Or Us
Zapped

Take a listen to some of my favorite Frank tunes:

Then do yourself a favor and read up on this amazing man.

You are missed Mr. Zappa.. but your music, spirit, and brilliance lives on with all of the musicians and fans that love you and spin your records frequently!

(Adopt Me) :: Berrin the Dog

by jhand

Berrin is a foster dog and is looking for a loving home! She is a Collie/German Shepherd mix, one year old, and a loving dog. She came to the Front Range German Shepherd Rescue from a humane society in Kansas, where she had been placed on the euthanasia list. After arriving in Colorado, Berrin stayed at a kennel before she was finally transferred into a foster home.

Berrin is housebroken, knows her basic commands, is crate-trained, and loves to play. She currently lives with a Malamute and a Shiba Inu mix with whom she loves to wrestle with, share bones, and sleep in the same bed. She has also lived with a cat, whom she just loved. They would play together, but Berrin does not harass cats: when the cat is done playing Berrin is happy to give them space. Berrin also likes to play with the neighbor dog who is 12 years old and suffers from hip and neurological problems. Berrin is sensitive to the older dog’s limitations and plays more gently than with the Malamute and Chow mix.

Berrin is just a bundle of joy and a little lover. She is playful and does have energy, but she is not a hyper dog. She does have a tendency to greet people by jumping, but with a stern “Down!” she sits and waits to be petted. She is great in the crate – she has no hesitancy to be crated and is able to stay in the crate during the majority of the day. She is spoiled and is allowed to sleep in the bed at night, where she enjoys sharing your pillow and curling up next to you.

With a name like “Berrin”, she has adopted many nicknames! “Bear”, “Strawberry”, “Berrie”, and “Bear-Bear” are just a few. Her defining characteristics are her floppy ears and her play-bow. She also has a very cute balancing trick on her hind legs: she has learned this usually earns her a treat.

If you are interested in meeting Berrin, please send a message through this site, email me here: aligator2006[at]hotmail[dot]com, or follow me on twitter @alisonsodja. If you would like to learn about the adoption procedure, please visit the Front Range German Shepherd page at: www.gsd.petfinder.org

Thank you!
