Streaks and Geeks Streaks and Geeks
Sunday afternoon... I'm flipping through all 72 channels... golf, football, a coin auction, more football and NASCAR. Yawn. I'll go do something on my Blawg...
I've struggled with a major disability throughout my lifetime: my chronic disinterest in professional sports. I couldn't tell you who played in the Superbowl last year and, with my interests grounded in law, technology, travel and motorcycles, I can discuss the BNA (Bureau of National Affairs) with a thousand times more fluency than I could the NBA. The only kinds of helmets I've ever handled don't come with face guards. You get the picture...
Although my atypical indifference to professional sports has freed up countless Sundays and Mondays and my wife says it is one of my best attributes as we flip from the Discovery Channel to the History Channel when all of my college buddies are at tailgate parties at the Oakland Arena and Candlestick Park (to which they have long, long since stopped inviting us).
Being professional sports agnostic does have its very notable detriments. I cannot begin to count the myriad of "power lunches" I have attended - a white male amongst a sea of other such white males... when things are just rolling along until the dreaded question hits like a cluster bomb dropped by the Northern Alliance in Kandahar...
"So, Alex who you have on tomorrow's game?"
I've mastered spilling my coffee at that very instant and I can invoke sneezing and coughing fits on cue. If I can sense that the B-52 is on its war path, I may opt for a strategic diversionary bathroom break where I pray that when I return the conversation will have meandered back from the Bucaneers to Blackberries.
Of course, with every rule there is an exception. Rather than instinctively shunning all things sports, I have developed passion for high school football. This started back in 1985 when as a San Mateo High School Bearcat, I rooted my team on from deep within the band section where I was lead cymbal player. That Junior year as well as my Senior year which followed, I clashed my cymbals as our team won the Regional State Championships back-to-back... not only did the Bearcats go undefeated those years, but they went, get this "unscored upon." At least in that respect, my friends on the football team and myself had something in common during our high school years.
But seriously, after 24 straight shutouts, the Bearcats made the history books... Several players went into the Pac 10 and/or the NFL and to this day the school still honors that football team with dedication ceremonies, achievement awards, team updates etc... . It was the biggest thing in Northern California High School Football ever.. that was, of course, until the De La Salle Spartans came on the scene.
De La Salle is a Catholic school in a nondescript San Francisco suburb known as Concord. It is right out of the movie American Beauty ... you'd expect to see Kevin Spacey's character among the throngs of balding parents in the stands comparing keyless remotes to their Hummers. Concord is as sterile as it comes. Cookie cutter tract houses break a continuum of strip malls... it is the type of place that makes you think about death.
So what's so special about a high school in a lifeless San Franciscan suburb? The school's football team. The school is on a bit of a winning streak. They have gone undefeated for eleven years. You read that last sentence correctly, De La Salle Spartans haven't lost a football game since early 1992 during the first Bush administration. That is what you call a streak .
Now this is no little po-dunk team playing in the farm leagues, De La Salle plays in the State's (and perhaps the Nation's) toughest high school league. In fact, over the years the team has invited undefeated teams throughout the country over for a rough and tumble game of ball and those visiting teams all, without exception, flew home bruised and battered by a bunch of suburban, clean cut Catholic boys. Last month, ESPN for the first time in its history... dared to televise a high school football game. The shootout involved a team from the South that was rumored to be able to actually put up a fight. Huh! As usual, the team flew back to Shreveport, Lousiana with their bruised heads bowed in shame and De La Salle didn't even bother to celebrate this 145th straight game of their streak.
They are now at 150 and pushing. No other football team in history has matched this record. Imagine if a law firm or attorney went a decade without a defeat. It is simply unfathomable.
So everyone out here has been itchin' their heads. How can a run of the mill Catholic school in suburbia produce such a national winning streak? A key player carrying the team for a season or two would explain this but a 150 games spanning over a decade... how on earth? Surprisingly, when you look at the team, they don't appear to be anything particularly lethal. The team is of average size and weight and speed. But 150 straight wins against the creme de le creme? What gives?
For every high school sports junkie out in the Bay that you ask, you'll get three responses and none of them will bear any semblance to the other. It is the Bigfoot mystery of suburbian high school sports. You didn't ask, and you may not care, but here is the Alextronic theory:
The administration at De La Salle high school intelligently outsourced the support behind the football team. They didn't count on one head coach or hope for one star athlete... they built a team to build a team.
De La Salle has always recruited the best support from across the country ... Head coach Bob Ladouceur located the top defensive line coaches, the most sought after offensive coaches, coaches plucked from the corn fields of the Midwest that have done nothing but lived and breathed point after touchdown squads. The world's greatest punt return trainers have been enlisted. The team even has an "equipment coach" that is constantly researching the latest gear that could give the team that edge. There are even coaches for the coaches. At last count, De La Salle had twelve... count them... 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 and 12 coaches dedicated to the varsity team. A greater team of national experts had not been assembled since Oppenheimer lead the Manhattan Project scientists in Los Alamos in 1943.
So what on earth does all this high school football talk have to do with E-discovery?
Well, I firmly believe that a law firm that simply puts an e-discovery savvy litigation support manager in place, without more, is a Jefferson high school - the firm will win some and lose some and will hold its breath a lot. However, the firm that seeks out an electronic discovery vendor or consultant who itself has bent over backwards to hand pick an all star team of EDD gurus that can back the firm's litigation support manager will be the De La Salle of the legal world. Will the firm win 150 straight... ? Probably not. Will the firm who has the best of the best backing it's litigation support team find itself at a substantial advantage over the law firm boasting at best a "plain vanilla" litigation support inside and outside team...? You know the answer.
Go Spartans!

Click here to download the Pre-Work Worksheets 1 and 2.
Date & Time:
Wednesday, April 15th, 2015 10:30am - 12:00pm
Thursday, April 23rd, 2015 2:00pm - 3.30pm
- Tom Tallon, Associate Director, Bureau of Women, Infant & Adolescent Health, New York State Department of Health
- Michelle Gerka, Vice President, CAI
- Elizabeth Jones, Director, NYS Center of Excellence for Family Planning and Reproductive Health Services, CAI
Since its establishment in 1970, the Title X Family Planning program has made great strides in providing family planning services to its target population of low-income and uninsured individuals. Today, the continued need for Title X services is reflected in the high rates of unintended pregnancies among low-income women and other vulnerable populations. In New York State, the proportion and numbers of clients served from client populations at greatest risk of disparate reproductive health outcomes have declined in recent years, presenting an opportunity for family planning providers to consider both the changing demographics in their catchment areas and shifting in the overall healthcare landscape, and re-examine their strategies for targeting and bring the most at-risk populations into care.
This Webinar, which was offered twice, was an introduction to the next phase of the New York State Center of Excellence for Family Planning and Reproductive Health Service's Performance Management Initiative, Serving Priority Populations. The program seeks to build the capacity of family planning providers to use the principles of performance management to identify the women, men, and adolescents most in need of family planning services, and bring them into care.
As a result of this Webinar, participants are able to:
- Review trend data for clients served by the New York State Comprehensive Family Planning and Reproductive Health Care Services Program
- Identify causes of concerns that emerge from trend data
- Review the objectives of and pre-work assignments for participation in regional face-to-face trainings in May and June
- Clarify who from their agency needs to attend face-to-face cluster trainings

Chagla, C.J.
1. Messrs. Shivnarayan Surajmal Nemani were the managing agents of the New Swadeshi Mills of Ahmedabad Ltd. Prior to 1945. On the 4th January, 1945, the managed company passed a resolution approving the transfer of the managing agency to the assessees. Under the agreement arrived at the assessees became entitled to the managing agency commission from the 1st April, 1944. The managing agency commission from the 1st April, 1944, to the 31st December, 1944, amounted to Rs. 2,20,433 and the managing agency commission from 1st January, 1945, to 31st March, 1945, amounted to Rs. 67,959. The year of account of the assessees was 18th October, 1944, to 4th November, 1945, and the contention of the assessees was that for the assessment year 1946-47 they were liable to pay tax only on the commission of Rs. 67,959 which they had earned by working as managing agents of the managed company and they were not liable to pay tax on the sum of Rs. 2,20,433. This contention of the assessee was not accepted by the Taxing Department. The Tribunal decided in favour of the assessees and the Commissioner has now come before us on this reference.
2. The managing agency agreement provides :
'The remuneration of the agents as such agents of the company as aforesaid shall be as follows :
A commission at the rate of three and a half per cent. on the gross proceeds of all sales of the yarn, cloth, waste and other articles manufactured by the company earned in any year or other period for which the accounts of the company are made up and laid before the general meeting.'
3. There is a further provision in this agreement, viz.,
'The said commission shall become due to the managing agents at the end of each financial year or other period for which the accounts of the company are to be laid before the general meeting and shall be payable and paid immediately after such accounts have been passed by general meeting.'
4. The contention of the assessee is that inasmuch as the commission is payable on sale proceeds, the commission accrued to Messrs. Shivnarayan Surajmal Nemani for the period during which they were the managing agents up to the 31st December, 1944, and that the commission only accrued to the assessees after they were appointed managing agents on the 1st January, 1945, and they are liable to pay tax only for the period 1st January, 1945, to 31st March, 1945. The Advocate-General on behalf of the Commissioner has relied on the recent decision of the Supreme Court of the Commissioner has relied on the recent decision of the Supreme Court reported in E. D. Sassoon & Co. Ltd., and Others v. Commissioner of Income-tax, Bombay City, and the whole debate before us has centered round the question as to whether this decision of the Supreme Court applies to the facts of this case or whether this decision is distinguishable.
5. In E. D. Sassoon & Co. Ltd., and Others v. Commissioner of Income-tax, Bombay City, the question that arose for the decision of the Supreme Court was whether the managing agency commission could be apportioned between the original managing agents and the managing agents to whom the managing agency had been transferred. The original managing agents had worked for a portion of the time and for the rest of the time the assignee has worked as managing agents. We took the view that the managing agency commission was apportionable and should be apportioned. The Supreme Court rejected that contention. What Mr. Kolah points out is that the ration of this decision rests upon the fact that in Sassoon's case the commission was payable on the profits of the managed company and in the case before us commission is payable on sale proceeds, and what Mr. Kolah urges is that the Supreme Court came to the decision which it did because profits cannot be ascertained till the end of the year and the managing agency commission only accrued when the profits accrued, which was at the end of the year, but in our case every sale that takes place has embedded in it the right of the managing agents to receive their commission, and nothing turns on what the state of the profits of the company is at the end of the year; whether the company earns profits or suffers losses, the right of the managing agents to receive commission depends upon a sale taking place, and according to Mr. Kolah the right to receive commission, which is the same as the accrual of the commission, arises on the sale being effected and not on the earning of the profits. There is considerable force in Mr. Kolah's contention, but we find when we look at the judgment of the Supreme Court that the decision is based not merely on the fact that in Sassoon's case the commission was payable on profits. If that had been so, undoubtedly we could have distinguished that case and come to a decision in favour of Mr. Kolah. But when we carefully look at the judgment of the Supreme Court, we find that what had been so, undoubtedly we could have distinguished that case and come to a decision in favour of Mr. Kolah. But when we carefully look at the judgment of the Supreme Court, we find that what the Supreme Court has decided is that the managing agents are entitled to their commission only when a debt is created in their favour. In other words, with respect, the Supreme Court has equated the creation of a debt with the right to receive a certain amount by the managing agents from the managed company. There is great force in Mr. Kolah's argument that there are two distinct stages which have got to be kept in mind; one is the right to receive the payment and the other is when the payment becomes receivable or when a debt is created or when the payment is made enforceable; and what Mr. Kolah strongly urges upon us is that in this case although the debt may be due by the managed company at the end of the year, although the payment to be received by the managing agents May not be enforceable till the end of the year, the right to receive the payment arose when the sales were effected. Mr. Kolah has drawn our attention to certain decisions where this distinction between the right to receive a payment and the payment becoming receivable is borne our. But whatever view we may take of the contention put forward by Mr. Kolah, we are bound by the decision of the supreme Court, and as we shall presently point our, the Supreme Court, again with very great respect, has not kept this distinction in mind. It may be that the decision of the Supreme Court, with respect, needs elucidation, but that elucidation can only be given by the Supreme Court itself and not by us. We are in duty bound to follow the decision of the Supreme Court and if we are clear in our mind that the Supreme Court has laid down a particular principle and if that principle is deducible from its judgment we must apply that principle to the facts before us.
6. Now, at the bottom of page 51 this is what Mr. Justice Bhagwati has delivering the judgment of the majority :
'But in order that the income can be said to have accrued to or earned by the assessee it is not only necessary that the assessee must have contributed to its accruing or arising by rendering services or otherwise but he must have created a debt in his favour. A debt must have come into existence and he must have acquired a right the payment. Unless his contribution or parenthood is effective in bringing into existence a debt or a right to receive the payment or in other words a debitum in praesenti solvendum in futuro, it cannot be said that any income has accrued to him. The mere expression `earned' in the sense of rendering the services etc. by itself is of no avail.'
7. Therefore, what is emphasised by Mr. Justice Bhagwati in this passage is that a debt must have come into existence and also he must have acquired a right to receive the debt. It is true that whenever a debt comes into existence there is a right to receive payment, but Mr. Justice Bhagwati has not accepted the converse of this proposition for which Mr. Kolah is contending that there may be a right to receive payment without a debt coming into existence. Attention might also be drawn to another aspect of the decision of the Supreme Court which has considerable bearing on the facts of our case also. The Supreme Court took the view that the managing agents had no right to claim the commission till they had served for the stipulated period, viz., one year, and the rendering of that service for one year was a condition precedent to their right to the commission. This will be clear from the passage at page 37 :
'It was a condition precedent to the Sassoons earning the remuneration that they fulfilled the terms of their employment and completed the period for which the remuneration was payable to them and the service for the particular period was a condition precedent to their earning the remuneration for that period.'
8. Again at page 43 it is stated :
'The commission was thus an annual payment calculated upon the annual net profits of the company and was to be due to the managing agents yearly on the 31st March in each and every year.'
9. Therefore, in this sentence the Supreme Court emphasises three aspects of the agreement, viz., that the commission was an annual payment, that it was payable on the 31st of March in each and every year, and the mode of calculation was that it was to be calculated upon the annual net profits of the company. Later on, on the same page there is a further passage :
'Until and unless the accounting year of the company had gone by the managing agents have served the company as their agents for the full period no part of the managing agency commission which was payable per year in the manner aforesaid could become due to them and the performance of the service for the year was a condition precedent to the managing agents being entitled to any part of the remuneration, or commission for the accounting year of the company. The managing agency agreement therefore was an entire and indivisible contract stipulating a payment of remuneration or commission per year and enjoined upon the managing agents the duty and obligation of rendering the services to the company for the whole year by way of condition precedent to their earning any remuneration or commission for the particular accounting year.'
10. We would like to add that the other aspect of the matter which Mr. Kolah has emphasised also seems to have been present to the mind of the learned Judges of the Supreme Court because at page 50 they cite with approval the observations of Lord Justice Fry in Colquhoun v. Brooks, to effect that the words 'accrual' and 'arising' are used in contradistinction to the word 'receive' and indicate a right to receive, and that they represent a state anterior to the point of time when the income becomes receivable and cannot a character of the income which is more or less inchoate. This observation May create some difficulty in view of the clear and emphatic position accepted by Mr. Justice Bhagwati as already pointed our at the bottom of pate 51 and the beginning of page 52. This gain proves, if we might say so with respect, the necessity for a further elucidation of the matter by the Supreme Court itself.
11. Mr. Kolah has drawn our attention to the fact in the case of the Supreme Court the commission was not payable at the rate of any particular amount, whereas in the case before us it is payable at the rate of 3 1/2 per cent. on the gross proceeds of all sales, and Mr. Kolah has relied on the judgment in Moriarty v. Regents of Garage and Engineering Co. Ltd. In that case the Court of Appeal drew a distinction between the fees of the director payable every year and the fees payable at the rate of so many pounds per year, and the decision suggests that if the latter expression is used and if a director serves for a portion of the year his fees could be apportioned. Mr. Kolah wishes to apply the principle of that decision to the facts of this case and he says that although the commission may have accrued at the end of the year in the light of the Supreme Court's decision, inasmuch as it is payable at the rate of 3 1/2 per cent. On the sale proceeds, it is capable of being apportioned and therefore it should be apportioned according to the sales effected while Messrs. Shivnarayan Surajmal Nemani were managing agents and for the period when the assessees were managing agents. We would have given serious thought to this aspect of the matter but for the view we take that the decision of the Supreme Court with regard to the question of creation of the debt and with regard to the serving by the managing agents for a term of one year being a condition precedent for their being entitled to receive payment, is indistinguishable on the facts of this case. We may point our that here as in the Sassoon's case the commission of 3 1/2 per cent. is to be earned in any year, and also by clause 3 of the agreement the commission is to become due to the managing agents at the end of each financial year. Therefore, till the end of the financial year there is no debt whatsoever created in favour of the managing agents and also their right to receive payment depends upon their having served for a whole year. Under the circumstances we must hold, following the decision of the Supreme Court, that the assessees are liable to pay tax on the whole of the commission as the commission accrued due on the 31st March,. 1945, and they became entitled to receive it at the end of the year. We do not agree with the view of the Tribunal that according to the agreement of the managing agents the debt was created in favour of the agents when the goods were sold by the company and that the payment was deferred to a date after the accounts having been passed by the shareholders in the general meeting of the company. In no view of the case can it be said that the debt was created in favour of the agents when the goods were sold. The debt was only created at the end of the financial year. All that can be said-and that is what Mr. Kolah has said - was that the right to receive payment arose when the goods were sold, and the Tribunal has not drawn a distinction which Mr. Kolah has drawn between the right to receive payment and the creation of the debt.
12. The result is that we must answer the question submitted to us : 'Accrued to the asssessees.'
13. We might state before parting with this reference that we are told by Mr. Kolah that the Taxing Department has also assessed Messrs. Shivnarayan Surajmal Nemani to tax in respect of the commission for the period 1st April, 1944, to 31st December, 1944. We are sure that however grave the needs of the country may be, the Taxing Department will not seek to assess two parties in respect of the same income. The Department will have to make up its mind whether it wants to collect the tax from Messrs. Shivnarayan Surajmal Nemani or from the assessees.
14. The assessees to pay the costs.
15. Reference answered accordingly.

He is also associated with other bands, including Bang Tango, A.M. Radio, and Vast; not to mention his own band Violet's Demise. However, many people recognize Robertson from his days with Dio.
Rowan is on my countdown because of his diligence. He was very young when he began playing guitar, so by the time he reached his teens the skill level at which he was playing was considerably higher than most kids his age.
After attending a Dio concert, Robertson made up his mind to be on the stage himself one day. His chance came at the age of 17 when, coincidentally, he ran across an ad placed by Dio looking for another guitarist. Rowan, at first rejected, never relented. He submitted another tape, landed himself a couple of auditions and the rest is history. He has been a major player in the music world ever since.
Rowan and the rest of DC4 are planning on releasing a new album before the year is out. They have played some amazing live shows already this year, including Count's Vamp'd in Las Vegas a couple of weeks ago. I am a big fan of DC4 and feel everyone should take the time to listen to them if you have not already done so. You can follow the band on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/DC4HardRock and Twitter https://twitter.com/DC4Megarock for up to date band info. Visit http://www.dc4rocks.com to purchase albums and other band merch.
They currently have a sweet deal for all three of their CDs for $20 USD, so if you do not own them yet I suggest you take full advantage of this sale. Thank you, Rowan Robertson for realizing your dream, and not giving up until you made it come true. You are an inspiration to us all.

Honda Jazz Named Best Small Hatchback at 2016 Telegraph Cars Awards
Honda was recognized at this year's 2016 Telegraph Cars Awards, the European automotive awards chosen by The Daily Telegraph. The automaker was honored for the Honda Jazz, which was named Best Small Hatchback.
The Honda Jazz, as well as the diverse array of other awarded new models, were all chosen by the Telegraph's expert road test team. The team has spent the last 12 months have putting hundreds of cars through a rigorous review process, which began with early first drives, included a detailed 10-point test, and for extra scrutiny, even involved living with the cars on a long-term test basis.
"Many have tried to copy the Jazz's formula for success, but nothing does it quite so well," the judges said when rendering their decision to award the Jazz. "For a small car, interior space is impressive, and Honda's reliability record is superb."
Fit for Awards: Consumer Reports names Honda Fit one of year's ten best cars
Known as the Honda Fit here in the United States, the third generation of the Jazz launched last year. Worldwide, the vehicle has sold more than 5 million units since 2001, when the first generation model was initially introduced.
A truly global car, the Jazz is currently being manufactured in seven different countries.
"Being recognized by one of the foremost motoring teams at one of our national newspapers is a fantastic accolade for both the brand and the Jazz," said Phil Webb, Head of Cars at Honda UK. "The Jazz is a very important model for us, with an extremely loyal following, so we look forward to seeing this success continue."

Anyone affected by internal bleeding after taking Pradaxa is urged to speak with a lawyer about their legal options as soon as possible.
Dallas, TX (PRWEB) November 21, 2012
The latest report from the Judicial Panel on MultiDistrict Litigation indicates the number of Pradaxa cases filed in federal court over internal bleeding has risen, from approximately 100 to 151. The JPML issued its latest report on November 14, 2012.*
The report comes as researchers disagree on the safety of the drug. The Journal for The American Medical Association warned on September 3, 2012 that the FDA may have rushed approval of Pradaxa, overlooking key Pradaxa side effects like internal bleeding. In its latest study released November 4, 2012, however, the FDA stated that, for now, Pradaxa carries the same risk as other blood thinners.
A report issued by the Institute for Safe Medicine Practices' QuarterWatch** on October 3, 2012 estimates that prescription drug complaints to the FDA have risen 90% in the past 4 years, and two drugs, Pradaxa and Chantix, are responsible for 37% of that increase.
Anyone affected by internal bleeding after taking Pradaxa is urged to speak with a lawyer about their legal options as soon as possible.
While all anticoagulants can cause internal bleeding, the Journal of Neurosurgery reported doctors' concerns on March 6, 2012 that, once Pradaxa causes internal bleeding, there is little they can do to stop it.
Due to the number of Pradaxa lawsuits expected, a central court was recently established in Illinois to handle the claims. The case is known as MDL No. 2385, IN RE: Pradaxa Product Liability Litigation, Southern District of Illinois. Judge Herndon ordered on July 24, 2012 that those injured by Pradaxa can proceed with lawsuits.
Anyone affected by internal bleeding after Pradaxa use is urged to speak with a lawyer about their legal options as soon as possible. Due to the specialized nature of these federal MDL cases, the Drug Risk Resource Center only recommends lawyers who are already handling Pradaxa lawsuits.
For more information on the research, side effects and litigation news related to Pradaxa and other drugs, or to speak with a lawyer, visit http://www.DrugRisk.com.

How does Dynatrace monitor Node.js applications?
Node.js is a server-side framework that's based on the V8 JavaScript engine by Google. Node.js has an asynchonous execution model and is frequently used for gluing or as a proxy tier within enterprise environments.
Dynatrace provides extensive Node.js monitoring capabilities:
- Heap and process metrics
- Heap dumps
- CPU sampling (see known limitations)
- Event loop metrics
- Insights into inbound and outbound HTTP calls
- Dedicated support for a variety of databases (includes query capture)
See our supported technologies matrix for details about supported technologies that will be used in conjunction with Node.js.
Support and De-Support
Node.js follows an LTS release model.
Each odd-numbered version reaches EOL shortly after each new even-numbered version is released. Each even-numbered version eventually becomes an LTS release. For enterprise production environments, it's recommended that you stick to LTS releases.
Whenever a new Node.js major version (even or uneven) is released, we add support for that version.
Node.js versions that reach end-of-life are desupported in Dynatrace within 2 release cycles.
Known Limitations
- Due to platform limitations of JavaScript and Node.js, code-level-visibility is limited compared to .NET or Java.
- In conjunction with unsupported third-party modules, context can get lost in asynchronous callbacks. In such cases, please contact support.
- Some versions of Google V8 contain a memory leak in its CPU profiler, which is a blocker for production level ambient sampling. In these cases CPU sampling is disabled in Dynatrace.

One of the most incredible experiences of my life was when I first saw
Hellbenders in the wild. Hellbenders, Cryptobranchus alleganiensis, are
one of North America's largest salamanders. Below are photos from a field
trip in 1998 to observe these giants in a river in western New York. In

"Unless you're a fortune-teller, long-term business planning is a fantasy"
In an ever-changing industry and uncertain economic times, is it really wise to invest so much time, money and effort into long-term business plans? David Hansson, partner of 37Signals and Basecamp supremo certainly doesn't think so, and his new book ReWork has been hailed as an anti-management manifesto that sees short term cutbacks as the way forward. Martyn Perks, founder of Thinking Apart, met up with him this month to discuss whether corporate culture is stifling industry growth.
Now that we have a Conservative and Liberal Democrat coalition Government, tough economic times are ahead not least because of their deficit reduction plans. £6 billion cuts in public services will no doubt add further hardship to many technology and service companies who already suffer from decreased investment from their services.
So how can businesses who produce products and services ride out this tricky financial period? What must executives do to ensure they can steer their companies into calmer waters? Should they base their futures on short-term cut-backs instead of long-term investment strategies?
I put these questions to David Heinemeier Hansson, a young self-confident Dane in town to promote his new book ReWork: Change The Way You Work Forever (Vermilion: 2010). It is co-authored with Jason Fried, who are both big names in the nebulous world of web 2.0.
Starting out in Chicago 1999 as a web design company, Fried hired Hansson in 2003 to create the popular online project management tool BaseCamp. In ten years, the company boasts 3 million people using its suite of tools along with their blog Signal vs. Noise commanding big daily audiences. Hansson also created the widely used open-source web framework Ruby on Rails that powers many technology services including Twitter.
ReWork has found a large audience with it being ranked high among the business best seller lists with praise from Newsweek, Fast Company and the Washington Post. Even top business leaders like Tom Peters, author of In Search of Excellence, rate it. ReWork reads like a manifesto. It shoots down formulaic management practice that puts process ahead of ideas. For that alone it is refreshing and we need more such polemics.
Hansson said to me that many people are reading it because it confirms peoples' experience of work where "they don't get enough done and end up not able to accomplish anything." Therefore at one level the book keys into a widening sense of frustration with work. It leaves few pillars of business practice untouched. It attacks meeting culture calling it 'toxic'. Business planning gets lambasted. 'Unless you're a fortune-teller, long-term business planning is a fantasy'. Fried and Hansson argue there are too many unknowns: market conditions, competitors, customers, the economy. To them planning is just guesswork that is not particularly suited to an 'improvised' world where 'Plans let the past drive the future'.
Much of ReWork is an instinctive reaction against the overwhelming management culture that ends up stifling creativity. There are lessons to be learned here. Many companies are driven to over engineer how ideas are formed by being too prescriptive, insisting on too many rules and etiquette. Here ReWork does offer simple but good advice: trust your own instincts to make something right for you first. Or as they put it: start by 'scratching your own itch'.
They suggest 'start getting into the habit of saying no—even to many of your best ideas. Use the power of no to get your priorities straight.' Or if you do have to listen to your customers' feedback, they insist on a radical (and some would say blasphemous) approach: don't write any of it down! 'Listen, but then forget what people said. Seriously.' Instead they argue that the stuff that matters will eventually make itself known.
When it comes to the competition, they are equally forthright: 'focus on your competitors too much and you wind up diluting your own vision… you become reactionary instead of visionary. You wind up offering your competitor's products with a different coat of paint.'
In the heat of battle many businesses forget all this—especially in these hard economic times we are in now. It is all too easy to end up being the same as everyone else: asking the same group of customers the same set of questions. Sadly there are few examples of businesses who refute this customer-is-right mantra and insist that ideas must come before customers' needs. Apple's CEO Steve Jobs is one famous exception to the rule rejecting focus groups preferring his own instincts: be influenced by the audience, but not lead by them.
But for all the useful attacks on management-speak and conventions, Fried and Hansson's own ideas are not ambitious enough. For them, to succeed, businesses must be frugal, cutting out waste, running things on a lean footing and making a virtue out of constraints that 'are advantages in disguise'.
As Hansson said to me: "all my best ideas, creativity and innovations have come about because of having to deal with intense constraints, because I was forced to do more with less." But we need to be careful about this: one way to break out of external constraints is to invest. But in the book they reject external investment (even though Jeff Bezos, CEO of Amazon is an investor in 37Signals) arguing you end up playing to someone else's tune. That is true—but having first established strong ideas should keep shareholders at bay.
Indeed many companies have inadvertently found themselves in a similar situation and have not consciously invested in new ideas and have had to rely upon building internal processes or extending existing customer relationships in the hope that it will see them through—eventually.
Hansson continued to suggest to me that "sometimes we need big investments, but most of the time we can get by with efficiencies in what we already know and use in our daily lives… by solving simple problems with simple solutions." Hence in ReWork Fried and Hansson go on to offer an altogether simpler solution: beat the competition by 'underdoing' them.
'Do less than your competitors to beat them. Solve the simple problems and leave the hairy, difficult, nasty problems to the competition. Instead of one-upping, try one-downing. Instead of outdoing, try underdoing.' But in a climate of fiscal tightening, ReWork ends up helping those that can only see the answer in streamlining business operations than of finding new ways to expand with new productive ideas.
Luckily however there are some companies that do otherwise—driven out of their own necessity. In South Korea for example, mobile phone producer Samsung is putting together a $20.6 billion investment plan to beat the competition. As its chairman Lee Kun-Lee said: "When other global companies hesitate, we must move ahead decisively to take this opportunity, and this will also benefit the country's economy."
Only when we are prepared to take on board equally ambitious investment plans will Fried and Hansson's positive sense of self-belief combine to make the best business case.

When was the last time you cleared out the gutters of your property? In fact, when was the last time you even THOUGHT about the gutters of your property?! They are a much-neglected part of home maintenance and are the kind of thing that nobody considers until it's too late. Fortunately, there is a solution that will provide both clear gutters AND a clear conscience…
There are lots of problems that can be caused by blocked gutters and you don't want to be dealing with any of them. Blockages can be caused by all sorts of things, from leaves and other tree debris to bits of windblown litter.
As water cannot flow properly down the gutter, it backs up and forms a pool that is particularly inviting to moss, mould and algae. These slimy nasties are extremely quick to reproduce and soon create a living carpet that is the first link on a food chain of equally nasty bugs. Dead bits of the green stuff and bugs further clog up the gutter and make more water back up, encouraging the cycle even further.
At some point, the backed-up water isn't going to fit in the gutter anymore. It can then go one of two ways: either over the side and down the wall of your house or the other way into your house through cracks in the masonry. If you're really unlucky, it could do both. Another possibility is that the entire gutter could collapse under the weight of the standing water, creating a serious danger for anyone who happens to be below it at the time and landing you with a big bill for repairs.
So, who is the solution to all of this? Easyfix Gutter Guard from Bluebird Fixings, brought to you by us here at BS Fixings. It would not be going too far to say that this is a miracle product, being so simple to install, so immediately effective and so durable. And, just to sweeten the deal even further, we are currently offering you an exclusive 15% discount as well.

OTC living and Balance
We got to the OTC here in Colorado Springs on Monday. Most of the team flew in from SLC, but I was asked to drive the AA team's bikes and luggage out from SLC. It was a nine hour drive, which really is not that bad. Plus, I also had to opportunity to stop and meet Chris from Rudy Project in Denver. It was really nice to grab a coffee with him and talk about some of the things they have planned for this Olympic year.
Since then, we have been in nearly non stop meetings with USS and USOC. Now you may be wondering what possibly can you meet about for 8 days. (Believe me, I thought the same thing.) But we need to go through medical testing, functional movement screenings, hear about the latest research on nutrition, learn about USS's philosophy for training this year etc etc. Everyone needs to be on the same page going into the Sochi Olympics.
While we have been out here, you hear a lot of USS athletes talk about how they would love to live permanently at an OTC. The food is amazing. The training facilities are right there and world class. And you rarely have to worry about any of your needs, since the USOC is already one step ahead of you.
I, personally, go back and forth about whether I would like to live in an OTC, regardless of the fact that none of them have a 400m oval. While everything is here is amazing, I think this discussion comes back to what most things in life come back to- balance.
Balance is essential in almost every facet in life. If something is too much it is invariably taking away from something else. I don't know about other athletes, but if I was surrounded by other athletes and sport 24/7, I would go insane. I need to do other things, for a few hours each day, to have some normalcy and then be refreshed for the next day. That's not to say I am not focused on skating, because it is in the back of my head all the time, but I strongly believe that in order for me to be successful on the ice I need a few distractions, such as work.
The best solution I think for utilizing an OTC is what we are doing now. Shoot in for a few weeks of really focused training and then head back to our homes afterwards. Michael Phelps and others used OTCs this way and obviously had a bunch of success with the model.

Your cart is empty.:( Let's fix that!Close
My six-year-old gave me a blue ribbon the other day. It is adorned with a decal, "World's Best Mom," in bright pink lettering, as well as a few decorative butterflies, stars, a crown, and a soccer ball.
She presented it to me proudly, with a big kiss and a hug. It wasn't Mother's Day yet, but I felt as pleased and touched as though it had been. Who doesn't like to get a prize now and then (even one that comes out of a "Create Your Own Awesome Awards" craft kit)? I pinned it to my sweater and started making dinner.
My daughter went back to her work at the kitchen table. She was absorbed in applying decals to ribbons for her friends and her dad. His says "World's Best Dad."
Come bedtime, I was still wearing my blue ribbon, but my daughter was no longer smiling. We were both tired. When I asked her to help pick up the toys in her room, I got a scowl instead. I asked again, and she replied "I wish I could take the words 'World's Best' off that ribbon and just leave the word 'Mom.'"
And then I did what the "World's Best Mom," whoever she is, would surely not. I took the ribbon off.
Were there tears? Yes. But not just tears. My daughter's bright, beautiful face crumpled. She wasn't defiant anymore; she was crushed.
It took me a minute to figure out what to say. As she sobbed, I stood there, wondering how to respond, wondering at my own hurt feelings. I sat down on the floor next to her, and said I was sorry. "I should have found a better way to tell you that your words made me upset. Taking off the ribbon was not a nice way to tell you that."
She nodded, and soon stopped crying. We put away the toys together. I pinned the ribbon back on, and got another hug. But I'd be just as happy if she did take off the words "World's Best." Being my darling girl's "Mom" is prize enough for me.
Really great article with very interesting information. You might want to follow up to this topic!?! 2012
You surely are not the only mom to whom that has happened, last night I toldo my three yeor old not to touch me, because he was just getting into my nerves, but when he told me (almost crying) "but you are my mom" he broke my heart!!! Needless to say we ended up playing as he touched me all over even if he got me dirty, because he surely is entitled for he is my son!!!

Wes Baldwin of The Baldwin Company, Inc, Charlotte NC, gives us a simple tip for helping donate millions to the American Red Cross every time you order a book, some dogfood, or a new headset for your PlayStation
What's the last thing you ordered from Amazon – an e-book for your Kindle? maybe a DVD? These days, it could just as easily have been a box of cereal or a tube of toothpaste. People are going to Amazon.com for just about anything under the sun – especially if they have Amazon Prime's free-shipping privileges.
So what does this have to do with helping the victims of recent hurricanes and earthquakes?
Few people realize that you can financially support the American Red Cross every time you order anything from Amazon. All it takes is simply adding a 'smile' to your Amazon bookmark, like this: Rather than…

Clearwater Toyota Makes Returning Your Lease Easy
As your approach the end of your lease term, you may be wondering what steps you must take, and when. Part of the joy of leasing a Toyota is how smooth the process of turning in your lease is. Here is a general timeline of what to do when your lease is almost up:
Three Months:
Around 90 days from the end of your lease, it is time to start thinking about what you wish to do next. Options to choose from include:
- Lease a new vehicle from Clearwater Toyota
- Buy a new or used vehicle from Clearwater Toyota
- Purchase the vehicle you have been leasing
- Turn in your lease, and go elsewhere for your next vehicle
You have many excellent choices for what to do after you turn in your lease. When you choose to buy or lease from Toyota again, loyalty rewards may apply -- and you have a brand new car. If you are happy with the vehicle you have been leasing and hate to let it go, let us know, and our financial team will work out the payoff amount. And of course, with a lease, you are never under obligation to continue working with us.
Two Months:
We know that life happens. You won't be charged if your Toyota is less than fresh-off-the-lot pristine. However, certain excessive damages may incur a fee. Ask about complimentary lease-end inspections around 60 days from the turn-in date to look for:
- Scratches or dents larger than a credit card
- Tears in upholstery larger than a credit card
- Broken or missing parts, including lost keys
- Bent wheels, bald or damaged tires
- Windshield glass damage

George Best made his debut for Manchester United in 1963 at the age of 17. One of the most skilful players ever seen, Best was the master of dribbling and shooting. His brilliance on the wing provided United with flair, excitement and glamour. With Best in the side, Manchester United won two league titles and the 1968 European Cup. His performance in United's 5-1 win away to Benfica in 1966 was one of the greatest in the history of the competition as he tormented the Portugese defence.
Best scored in the 1968 European Cup Final win over Benfica and was subsequently named European Footballer of the Year. Best left United in 1974 and never reached anything like his peak again. He played 37 times for Northern Ireland.

This was located about 45 minutes from Buenos Aires. You get to tour the grounds and the museum on your own. If you want, you can ride a horse by yourself, or go for a cart ride. Around 1 pm we all moved into the...More
Your tour begins with pickup from your central Buenos Aires hotel and a transfer to Estancia Santa Susana by air-conditioned minivan.
The fiesta atmosphere starts when you arrive and are greeted with Argentine wine and homemade empanadas. Set out on a tour of the ranch and meet the gauchos, Argentina's own version of the American cowboy. Depending on your preference, either enjoy a horseback ride or a horse-drawn carriage ride around the ranch.
After working up an appetite, tuck into a delicious barbecue lunch including a selection of meats and salads, accompanied by Malbec wine. Finish with sweet pastries and traditional yerba mate.
During the meal, enjoy a variety of live entertainment, including folk music and dancing, a tango demonstration, and a boleadoras show with weapon-throwing. Finally, the gauchos mount up for a spectacular horseback performance, showing off daring stunts, animal herding, and racing.
Your tour ends back in downtown Buenos Aires.

It's been a little over a year since In The Mix 2016, where my favorite band, The 1975 was a part of. To date, it's one of my biggest regrets in life, because that event has such a big lineup. But since it's bad to dwell on the past, here's me, reminiscing the days I got to meet and watch these British lads for the first time, live. Read on to see photos and watch their performance!
Three years ago, The 1975 went to the Philippines for the first time, to do a series of shows for Ayala Malls. Like the fan girl that I am, I definitely wouldn't miss it, so I went to three out of the five shows they have. One of which, was a Q&A/meet and greet event, where I met, held, smelled, touched and hold Matty freaking Healy of The 1975.
I was very *~blessed~* to have a photo with him, and to be a part of this special show. I even got to record the entire Q&A portion with The 1975! In fact, this is my sixth most watched video, with 25,000 views and counting! Watch the video below, but just to warn you: do not watch this with your volume in full blast.
So to reminisce more, here are the photos of that very memorable weekend!

The Daily Freeman (http://www.dailyfreeman.com)
Sunday, February 4, 2018
Dear Editor:
No matter what your thoughts are on #MeToo or #TimesUp, many parents of young girls may think, "She's still so young. How do I talk to her about something so adult?"
With the topic spreading far beyond social media, the movement to stop sexual harassment, assault and the overall unequal treatment of women may already be on your girl's radar. Although it's an adult topic, your kids are listening, watching how you respond, and taking it all in. They're also having conversations with their peers. As with any sensitive topic, parents can and should tackle the subject with their kids directly, and Girl Scouts is here to help.
For a wealth of resources on raising girls with confidence, encouraging them to find their inner leader, guiding her to stand up for what she believes in and improving her school success, Girl Scouts provides hundreds of resources for raising awesome girls at www.girlscouts.org/raisinggirls.
We pair each of our members with strong, caring female role models and mentors who prepare them to take the lead, and provide them with a strong support system of peers on which they can trust and rely.
Girl Scouting empowers young girls to take action and change their world for the better.
As a society, this is our moment to come together, lift our voices, and take action on issues that matter to girls. At Girl Scouts, we've been teaching girls to lead for more than 100 years and have a deep understanding of the leadership abilities all girls should have. For more information, go to www.girlscoutshh.org/join.

Someone's emailed me about one of my blog post. He's been so upset that my post about mentaliti keanak-anakan.
I didn't mention any names.
He said stuff. But, I know who I am. That was my past and I don't live there anymore.
You're the one who trapped in your own game. Why am I the one to be blame?
