Florence + The Machine Shakes It Out on Austin City Limits
Florence + The Machine recently stole the show for the 2016 performers at Austin City Limits TV. In 2015, I watched Florence break her foot during her Coachella performance, and finished the set. She embodies rock n' roll to the core. Her recent Austin City Limits performance with an extended backing band just continues to showcase her overwhelming talent.

Amazon Web Services is providing new educative learning sessions for students and professors to collaborate with when developing new skills in cloud computing technology. To break down how cloud computing works, I wanted to share the definition of the term: the practice of using a network of remote servers hosted on the Internet to store, manage, and process data, rather than a local server or a personal computer. I often hear someone speak of cloud computing as a far off and complex idea. But when one breaks down the process it makes clear sense. Local servers can store data
