Poetry was an important and respected part of Celtic culture. One's social rank depended on their poetry skills, and soldiers and members of the elite fighting force Fianna had to demonstrate poetry abilities. Poets, called Bards, held a high status similar to warriors and were believed to have special powers. Celtic society viewed learning poetry as a way to connect with nature, and they believed the gods favored those who memorized and recited poetry. Poems and songs were traditionally passed down orally from generation to generation.

Answering the Database Scale Out Problem with PCI SSDsanswers

This document discusses using solid state drives (SSDs) to address the database scale out problem for a growing website. It summarizes the challenges of keeping site performance high while data and traffic increase. Traditional approaches like replication and query optimization were no longer sufficient. Testing Fusion-io SSDs on HP Blade servers showed dramatic improvements in queries per second, response times, replication catch-up times, and server recovery times compared to SAS HDDs. SSDs allowed scaling the database infrastructure on fewer servers, reducing operating costs by 75% while improving performance and scalability. Other potential uses of SSDs in the data center are also mentioned.

000267 pterygium and_topical_bevacizumabDr. Anand Sudhalkar

Topical bevacizumab in combination with flurbiprofen eye drops and punctal occlusion for 4 weeks after pterygium excision and conjunctival autograft showed no recurrence of pterygium in any of the 17 patients over a 2 year follow up period. No patients experienced any ocular or systemic side effects from the topical bevacizumab treatment regimen. This prospective case series suggests that topical bevacizumab may be a safe and effective adjuvant therapy to prevent recurrence of primary pterygium after surgery. Larger controlled studies are still needed.
