PowerPath is EMC Corporation's multipath management software for storage networks.
It is server-resident software that manages a server's use of multiple paths to a storage device. Typically this is implemented to improve resilience and protect against failure in the storage network.
In some cases, very high-performance servers may require multiple paths to a storage device in order to improve performance by balancing load across several paths.
PowerPath was originally created by Conley Corporation and was sold under the "SafePathz" name. Although available directly from Conley, most sales came through licensing deals with Hitachi Data Systems and EMC. When EMC licenced SafePath from Conley they marketed the product as PowerPath. In 1998 EMC acquired Conley for less than US $50M.
PowerPath was originally designed to mask multiple paths, especially important in Windows environments, and detect failed paths. Over time, functionality has been expanded to include automatic load-balancing, automatic path management and dynamic reconfiguration.
EMC PowerPath's major competitor is a product developed by Veritas Software (later acquired by Symantec) part of the Veritas Volume Manager product.

Sysero (also known as Sysero, The Really Interesting d00d) is the screen name of a Usenet Performance Artist and former alt.fan.karl-malden.nose regular who was active during The Empire of Meow's expansionist period. Of the many forms of Usenet Performance Art, he is probably best known for his narratives which often targeted Usenet kooks and people whom he viewed as taking Usenet "far too seriously". Highly original, sarcastic, and very funny, Sysero is considered one of the several masters in the genre during this period.

The cancer industry is a group of businesses and organizations with aligned interests in reference to cancer and public policies for handling the problem. The medical establishment is often viewed as belonging to the cancer industry due to the incentives in place for taking a curative approach rather than a preventive one. Cancer associations such as the American Cancer Society have also been implicated partly due to their depiction of cancer as a disease rather than simply side effects of poor health that happen to manifest in certain tissue. Some believe that the cancer industry deliberately avoids focusing on methods for reducing the occurrence of cancer in order to guarantee the cancer industry's continued existence. Much of its profits are derived from chemotherapy. Some critics, such as Barbara Brenner of Breast Cancer Action, say that the cancer industry's creation of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, which focuses on early detection, distract from critical questioning about causation.
