| Views: KGB; Compassion for rape victims; Monroe Street development
Thanks to Wisconsin State Journal sports reporter Jason Wilde for Friday's article on Kabeer Gbaja-Biamila and the film, "Facing the Giants." It is a great movie with principles that can be used in many areas of our lives. We each need to take responsibility in our lives, and take time to impact others' lives. Both KGB and this movie have done a super job of living that. The movie is also clear on the message that our hope and direction is from one source, and that is the Lord God -- Jesus. .
A sleep-friendly nursery made easy
Make sure the nursery is designated as a room for sleep. Keep the area around the crib free of toys and other fun knickknacks. "Crib distractions confuse your baby," says Conner Herman, sleep expert for TheNestBaby.com. "They'll make him wonder, 'Is this a playpen, or is it time to sleep?' " Clearing the space will help your baby mentally associate the bedroom with sleeping and other rooms with playing. "Babies can't understand you verbally," reminds Herman. "You need to figure out how to give them other cues." Start separating Though it may go against your natural instinct, Kira Ryan, another sleep expert for TheNestBaby.com, recommends putting baby in her own room for at least one nap a day from the start. "This gets her acclimated to her room, so when it's time to move in there, it's not a total change." A daily solo nap also helps baby and you get used to being apart -- these little breaks may be tough, but they're healthy and necessary.
Startup plans floating data centres
A STARTUP is planning to build floating data centres on knackered cargo ships. San Francisco Bay Area company International Data Security (IDS) envisions it will have up to 50 decommissioned container ships housing data server farms, moored in various ports around the world including 22 in North American cities. IDS believes using cargo ships will give it flexibility and enable expansion limited only by the availability of ships and port space instead of real estate constraints. Its first location will be available at Pier 50 in San Francisco starting in April and it already has, ahem, anchor tenants signed, a source close to the company said. Shipboard cargo spaces will be built out as data center floors and deck space will be used to stack modular data centers in standard shipping containers.
