Tears. Multiple times. Sadness, happiness, other. Great acting, real, story. Got to stop crying on planes. Probably more tears than watching Twice Born. Go and see Short Term 12.

Documentum and Canopy (vs EMC OnDemand)
Disclaimer: I’m an Atos employee and Atos are part owners of the Canopy solution. I also work on a client site using Documentum in an EMC OnDemand environment.
EMC have made quite a sales pitch around their OnDemand environments. The idea is that you can hand over the running of the environment to EMC in either a cloud or on premise solution. Using standard building blocks they can deploy environments quicker and manage them easier. In the Documentum world this is a pretty fantastic thing as bringing together the server and database teams and finding a consultant who has had time to test install the latest release is quite a feat.
Before WindowLogic were acquired by Atos I hadn’t even heard much about Canopy. It’s mainly a European based solution with data centers in Germany, France, Spain, UK and most likely many more. It turns out that they also host Documentum environments out of their German data center.
Modern Day Dating
I’ve recently had a resurgence on the dating front and it’s got me researching, thinking and talking frequently about the concept of modern day dating.
And things have subtly changed.
I read that just because we have technology doesn’t mean we are allowed to be cold and heartless when it comes to dating. We should still open the car door for ladies and buy them flowers. Hold on. When in the last twenty years has it been fashionable to open the car door for a woman? The only friend I have that did that was ridiculed out of existence. I ignored most of that article.

The Fix For My AR-VS7 Fujitsu Air Conditioner Remote
It is stinking hot. I’ve been able to cope fairly easily up till now but not today. I even jumped in the pool about 10 minutes before bed. According to the BOM (Bureau of Meteorology) it is 32 degrees Celsius outside at almost 11 pm at night. For a bigger number that is apparently almost 90 degrees Fahrenheit. Nice and toasty. Now I know 30 Celsius is my limit.
Some how I scored the master bedroom in our house with the his and hers bathroom with his and hers mirrors and his and hers shower. Plus I got an air conditioner. I’m the only room in the house to have one. Everyone else in the house would have been using it religiously for the last few weeks but I actually love the heat so tonight was the first time that I’ve turned it on.
One issue: The remote didn’t work.
I don’t know who designs an electrical appliance without a manual keyboard but the answer I now know is Fujitsu. Thanks Mark Taylor.
Luckily there is a fix which I figure out from the help of a few blogs which weren’t exactly clear. This works for a AR-VS7M remote at least. I believe there are other version of the AR-VS7 air conditioner so check which remote type you have.
- Take out the old batteries and find some new ones
- Find a pen or tooth pick or similar implement and hold down the ACL button inside the little hole under the battery cover.
- Put new batteries in
- Turn it on and frig around with it till it works for me.
Worked a charm for me and hopefully it works for you too!
