This article was originally posted on the Let's Move blog. The physical activity facts for adolescent and school health were originally published on the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention website.
Physical activity is essential to a healthy lifestyle, and it can be especially important in helping kids do better in school. U.S. Health and Human Services studies show that regular physical activity for kids and teens improves strength and endurance, helps build healthy bones and muscles, and increases self-esteem. Parents, teachers, and community leaders can all play a supportive role, and help encourage a healthy lifestyle by promoting physical activity into everyday routines.
For kids and teens (ages 6 to 17 years), here's the goal:

At my company I am trying to make a case for why we should be doing TDD. Currently most developers just do whatever they can to get the project done, then go add unit tests after the fact in order to meet manager metrics. Any examples from reputable companies doing TDD and seeing the benefits would be greatly appreciated.
(I mark this answer community wiki - welcome to contribute.) |
There is a chapter about TDD with a case study in the recent book, "Making Software: What works and why we believe it". But you may be disappointed, since if I recall correctly the study did not uncover any real benefits to TDD. The case study was interesting anyway, and the book in general is one of the best software books I'v read recently. It contains many case studies of things like pair programming, code review, etc. |
look at how much time you and the client spent manually testing the software; compare that to an estimate of how long TDD-style automated tests would have taken. Pocket the difference in my experience, TDD's automated tests are gold because they provide insurance and eliminate enormous amounts of manual testing |
you want to make the case for it: suggest you do it for the next project, and then learn from it. If it turns out it works great for you, then I hope you'll continue to use it and if it took longer to do the project and/or spend all your time writing tests instead of coding, then you'll surely dump it as a failure. I think the real-world solution is (like most things) a mid-way, you want tests but you don't want the tests to be more important than the project. (personally I think TDD is a fad, sounds good in theory, but in practice... not so good. I find integration testing is far more important, but that could be just the kind of complex projects I work on). |
I have been working using TDD for 2 years and where I worked at the time ,we were all reluctant to use including managers.However it soon turned to be the right thing todo.The benefits that we soon noticed were
The managers would not know as they are all interested in one thing "Have you finished". But then they complain when the software keeps breaking without realising. With a good coverage and sensible tests.It's not the quantity but quality you can really see when somebody breaks a functionality. Also unfortunately it's difficult if you are on your own.I had the same problem,as you might need to change code eg base classes etc so that you can make parts of the software testable. I give you an example.I wanted to mock the repository but there was no interface and i need to inject the repository into my service layer and therefore add/modify a constructor all over the shop,this turned out to be a big deal but in the end i have more than 200 tests just testing one area of the system and they were impressed. I usually do the following:
Regarding case studies I am afraid ,I am not sure I have seen any. You need to build your project and become your case studies.They might be impressed too. I hope it helps |
here is a good one |
a bit late, definitely check out this: http://theruntime.com/blogs/jacob/archive/2008/01/22/tdd-proven-effective-or-is-it.aspx. The author has a lot of good points about TDD not being all that effective (imo despite being hyped to death) |

This is more like a week and a few bits from the week prior. I actually didn't post much to Instagram the week before and those that I did, I ended up using for posts {or will be using for posts} so I thought I'd skip last week and add the few extras to this week.
We've decided to move on December 5th up to our new house based entirely on the weather and not on the fact that we are up to our ears with to-do lists to get done before we move. But we are more concerned with moving on a sunny day rather than a snowy or rainy or foggy one and according to the weather forecast, December 5th and 6th will be sunny and the very next day snow will fall. EEK! I'm so excited to see our first snowfall but I'm not excited about moving... because moving is never fun. But we are in it to win it now ;)

NEW YORK -- It's All Star weekend in the NBA which means we've hit the half way point in the basketball season.
As it stands, the two teams from New York are atop the Atlantic Division. The Knicks have a record of 32-18 while Brooklyn is 31-22 on the season so far.
Breaking it down by conference, the Knicks are four games behind the first place Miami Heat. The Nets are in fourth place behind Miami, New York, and Indiana.
For the All Star game, New York is well represented. Carmelo Anthony and Tyson Chandler will be playing for the Knicks while Brooklyn's Brook Lopez will be coming off the bench. The game is scheduled for 7:00pm on Sunday.
The break comes at a good time for the Knicks who are currently riding a two game losing streak. The Nets probably wanted to ride out their good fortune a little longer, since they won their last two games.
In the first year of this new instate rivalry, both teams broke even on the schedule. They're both 2-2 against each other with no other games scheduled for the regular season. The last meeting ended in an 88-85 win for Brooklyn.
The Nets will be back in action on Tuesday at 7:30pm against Milwaukee. Meanwhile the Knicks will travel to Indiana on Wednesday for a 7:00pm matchup.

The shift from Smooth Jazz to Rock in 2008 was one of the more exciting things to happen in local NYC radio in years. Matt Pinfield did a great job carving out a more Contemporary niche against the Classic vein of the venerable WAXQ 104.3.
Anyway, I guess the once-monthly listens when my contemporaries in the area rented a car wasn't enough to sustain it. And Jersey also has WDHA 105.5, making WRXP somewhat redundant there. For the most part, it's iPods and iTunes, Satellites, and Pandora-esque streaming for the Gen X tail-end/Millennial set the station was geared toward. Has been for some time now.
Ah, well.
WRXP was one of the "last, and best, g'damn buggy whips" in an era of automobiles.
Fare thee well.

Indiana is better than most , if you stay out of the major cities, pretty good.
Indiana is better than most , if you stay out of the major cities, pretty good.
There are several large office buildings going up near my house, so someone is expanding. Or maybe it's the low interest rates.
Northern Virginia is cutting back in expectation of some fiscal cliff problems. Large warehouse for the marines have been shut down. Which effects the local eateries, shops and everybody else.
So , basically , here is where I am , labor market is shit , looks to be shit for the future.
I am from Indiana and there are some great advantages here from a liberty perspective. However, there is also the negative sides, such as recent IN Supreme Court rulings that removed our right as private citizens to defend against illegal search. In essence, they granted police the ability to basically ignore a warrant and your only recourse is via the courts.
Nonetheless, we were rated #3 in some freedom index a while back. Also, Indianapolis was rated one of the best places to live and also one of the best for cost of living.

Rapha Randonnées Literature
Working in an age where a large amount of output is digital, existing only on hard drives, servers and computer screens, it is always satisfying when printed work arrives at Rapha. There is usually a degree of trepidation when a digital file is sent off to be transformed into a 3D object, but when the result is something like this, it's great to see (and feel).
This latest print run is a collection of booklets for the upcoming Rapha Randonnées 2010. A pack of three separate books will be sent to every rider before their trip, detailing General Randonnée Info, a Training Plan and a specific guide to the Randonnée they will embark upon.

Very nice.
Today just arrived Rapha rides Siracusa and I must say it made my day, I especially like lining with pink floss, great detail.
For me as a graphic designer is always a joy to see (and touch) such beautiful prints (and that smell ahhh :-)).
Jon Moss
31st March 2010 06:53am
These look wonderful, and I agree with Jan - great to see and touch good print work.
I'd be signing up for a Randonnée in a flash, but they are a little too 'advanced' for me…. hoping for something next year aimed at the less fit rider, but one just as keen to ride and experience a great trip :)

2nd April 2010 09:39pm
I agree with the plaudits above. I just received the Rapha Rides Siracusa catalog and pamphlet. The "Book of Optics" engraving is very cool and the pink sewing a nice touch. I'd love a copy of the Appennini pamphlet too. I hope this literature becomes generally available, even to those who can't afford to sign up the Randonnée packages.

generative modeling for Rhino
I'm Working on a Definition and i dont know why after a solid diference some of the geometry brep become a Invalid Brep
here i post the entire definition
Unable to get to data without the Rhino file.
UPS sorry here's the rhino file
Hi Toussaint, I think you're overengineering things. I only looked at the disks boolean issue for now. Hope this helps.
Pieter i saw that you use a Kangaroo Component, i'm not available to use any componnent outside the native components. maybe its true i'm overengineering things. but now i need to complete de definition then at the end i will try to debug it. so let me see what can i do
thanks for the answer
Btw, I noticed I ended up with 6 disks missing, and I noticed some cuts missing... sorry about that. Well you got my point: simpler is better.
Considering the duplicate lines filter from Kangaroo: if a C# component is considered native enough, you could use Andrew Heumann's excellent script instead.
I tend to think that debugging along the way is crucial; no point in going on after unwanted results halfway the definition. I also think it might help to scale everything by a factor of 100 or so. Downside to that is that you'll have to adjust the numbers you use in your GH definition accordingly..
I'm curious about what you are making Toussaint, keep us informed.
Thanks Pieter,
the definition its an exercise that me and a couple of classmates are developing in a Postgrade studies in Parametric design. the final goal is, to build a scultoric piece which will spiral around a Column that will be showed in an design exposition here in Buenos Aires, so lets see at the end whats going on with it, i will post the process and the results when everything were done
PS. sorry for my bad english i'm a native spanish speaker with a self-teaching of english
I am not exactly sure what your goal is but I was able to get the Solid Difference to perform by bypassing the preceding Path mapper component immediately preceding the Solid Difference component. The path mapper input data structure of the input was incorrect. It was set as {a;b;c} and the actual data structure being output by the extrude component was {a;b}. The data branch structure of the path mapper input should match the branch structure of the arriving data's branch structure. However, I avoided the path mapper completely by simplifing the preceding Extrude component's output.
By the way, I am using the latest Rhino 5 and the latest GH.

Founder & Editor-in-Chief at Hooked on Hockey Magazine
I grew up playing Ball and Roller Hockey day and night somewhat religiously throughout elementary and middle school. The two don't compare though when I lace up the skates and hit the ice. I live and breathe hockey beyond the perspective of "it's just a game" and I will gladly talk hockey for hours with anyone. Hockey is more than just a lifestyle, it's a culture of passionate people who make memories every time the puck is dropped. Hockey has not only helped me get through some of the hardest times in life but has created some of the best memories to date. Want to talk hockey with me? Start it off with a comment below!

The rules of the game
At the end of March earlier this year, Ark Group hosted its first conference on the value of business simulations in an organisational context. Eilif Trondsen, chairman at the event, shares his thoughts on the key learnings delegates and presenters were able to take away, having heard from the likes of BT, Pfizer, KLM, Orange and the London Business School.
A friend who is quite active on the conference circuit once made the comment that if you gain just a few new insights during a conference, you are doing well. This may be overly cynical, however, as I think one can, and should be able to, do far better with a little extra effort. By reflecting on what one hears both from the presenters and the other attendees and combining this with ones own contextual reflections, you should be able to make conference attendance a part of your learning journey.
I was looking forward to chairing Ark Groups Business Simulations conference, because it is a subject that has intrigued me for a number of years. I am, though, still trying to figure out how quickly simulations will gain a significant role in the emerging e-learning landscape. Most analysts seem to agree that simulations have huge potential. But in common with many aspects of e-learning, particularly over the past two or three years, the acceptance and use of simulations has lagged behind expectations. This comment may also apply to business games, as many commentators and analysts often talk of games and simulations (G&S) collectively, even though games dont necessarily involve simulations. This conference had a number of sessions that focused on games, and for sake of simplicity, I will use the term G&S to describe the topic as a whole throughout this article. In this brief write-up I will summarise what I learnt and the insights I gained over the course of the event.
The magic is in the blend
During the most intense period of e-learning hype, during the dotcom boom years, there was little talk about blended or hybrid learning solutions. Even if most analysts probably recognised that instructor-led training (ILT) or classroom-based learning would not disappear any time soon, most focused on pure e-learning. Today, however, in a time of greater realism and less hype, there is a stronger focus on what the mix of e-learning and ILT should be and what factors determine the optimal blend.
The situation seems similar in the world of G&S. Some of the most successful simulations-based e-learning companies, such as London-based Imparta, whose CEO, Richard Barkey, presented at the conference, have recognised that a good mix of simulations-based e-learning and instructor or coach-based workshops seems to work best, at least for the majority of audiences. This would no doubt be particularly appropriate for learners who are uncomfortable with and/or relatively new to the world of information technology. It is important to recognise that many different learning styles and preferences exist among a companys employees. Allowing for this diversity in learning environments is important and will yield higher participation, fewer drop-outs and greater overall success.
Conventional tools and training are no longer enough
Kim Warren of London Business School kicked off the conference by demonstrating how simulations could be used to great effect in business to overcome some of the serious failings of current practices. Through a number of examples, he showed the serious problems we have with poor managerial understanding of todays complexity and uncertainty in business, and argued that simulations should be added to business-school curricula. While Harvard Business School and other universities have used the case-study approach with great success, Warren said we must now recognise the limitations of this approach. It is, he said, too static and does not allow dynamic what-if analyses that can test alternative assumptions and scenarios, which are so important to developing a better understanding of the complex relationships that drive todays businesses.
Many, but not all, learners enjoy games, and the engagement and interactivity that often come with a well designed game. It is not difficult to understand why games, often involving competing teams, are becoming so popular in both educational and corporate learning environments. At the conference, John Castledine of Pfizer Research University clearly demonstrated the wide range of gaming/simulation approaches currently available. Castledine discussed the concept of the learning organisation in the context of his own company. Pfizers strategy for learning and creating knowledge illustrates how games and simulations can play an important part in teaching the principles (including high uncertainties and risks) of the drug-discovery process.
There was one note of caution, however. It is imperative that your learners expectations about what they can learn from games and simulations and what they should not expect from them are carefully managed. Consumer electronic-game makers, such as Electronic Arts, spend tens or hundreds of millions of pounds on highly realistic, very graphic-intensive and high twitch gaming environments that no learning games or simulations can hope to match. Such resources do not exist in the learning-games industry (and perhaps never will). If you dont tune expectations properly, learners may get turned off from the start.
A bridge between disparate knowledge-based fields and domains
Important domains of business and learning, for instance KM, e-learning, and the concept of the learning organisation (LO), could benefit significantly from increased connectivity and overlap. While many e-learning analysts predict a convergence between their field and that of KM, relatively little analytical work has been done to demonstrate how this convergence will take place. However, in his keynote presentation, Jan Klabbers, from KMPC in the Netherlands and the University of Bergen, described and contrasted KM and the concept of the learning organisation. In addition, he presented conceptual frameworks for understanding the linkages between knowledge and games. He argued that games (which could involve simulation) could help bridge the gap between the two fields. Furthermore, he maintained that games help managers learn to deal with the interrelationships between explicit and tacit knowing, which is an important and complex issue of learning and knowledge transfer in business.
Klabbers, who teaches game-based learning and game design at the department of information science at the University of Bergen, argued that gaming could help break down the distinct language barriers that exist between the KM and LO practitioners. If games can play even a small role in helping to deliver a degree of convergence between KM and LOs perhaps also incorporating e-learning the impact and benefits would be significant, and would help unite some very large communities of practitioners that are all concerned with improving corporate performance. Since e-learning, the learning organisation and KM have their own (overlapping) tools and technologies, being able to integrate these could also have dramatic benefits from an enterprise-applications perspective.
Simulations as next-generation e-learning
Although reliable statistics on the sale or use of simulations even for the key markets of North America and Europe are hard to come by, there is general consensus that interest in the use of simulations is growing steadily. During the conference, Graham Courtney of the US simulations-based e-learning company Simulearn argued strongly that traditional e-learning has failed and that simulations would come to the rescue and create the foundation for next-generation e-learning. Both Courtney and Impartas Barkey argued that super-real simulations-based products, which both companies produce, would play a growing role in e-learning.
However, so far, relatively few simulations-based e-learning companies have gained the kind of traction that many analysts had expected. Imparta and San Francisco-based Forio may be among the relatively few that are experiencing a reasonable level of success. The difficult situation could of course be explained by current economic circumstances, in which few training departments feel they can afford to purchase simulations. Today, perceptions of high costs well founded or not have no doubt kept the demand for simulations relatively low, unless of course you are part of the US military, which has a huge budget for simulation-based learning. Many relatively simple simulations probably do not have to be very expensive, although Barkey noted that simulation-based products typically run at around £100-150 per hour, compared to £10-20 for more traditional e-learning content.
Effective, credible marketing is still a key success factor
There is an argument to suggest that we have not created sufficiently credible and in-depth case studies to illustrate the benefits gained through G&S-based tools to help solve specific business problems. We are certainly seeing a growing number of presentations at e-learning conferences discussing business-alignment issues, and how e-learning should not be seen as an alternative form of training, but rather as an effective tool for tackling business problems, for example getting products to market faster or increasing productivity among sales staff.
The case study with the most detailed analysis of metrics and benefits was presented by Simon Cavill from BT. The company used simulations with great success as it moved from delivering traditional telecommunications products to internet-based customer solutions. Results from its eXperience programme, which consisted of a number of different employee groups and a careful, phased approach to learning, measured the results in terms of value (sales productivity and customer satisfaction) as well as in speed (time to market). More in-depth case studies of this kind that lay out not only the business problems solved but also the metrics involved in costs and benefits would no doubt be well received by potential users of e-learning and G&S. Admittedly, many users may not be willing to reveal such details, but the BT case shows that there are those that are willing to share lessons learnt, especially if they are already well beyond the initial implementation phase of their G&S-based project. It is companies like BT that can demonstrate what next-generation learning systems and processes will really look like in practice.

If ever there is a tomorrow when we're not together.......
there is something you must always remember.
You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think.
But the most important thing is, even if we're apart...... I'll always be with you.
Winne the Pooh - A A Milne

I was just asking ...
but instead of giving this to that one or that to another one , why not make the things as they should be ( as promised and stated in several places) ?
99+ day(s) ago
Let me whip out my magical ability to code GC/RT so I can put in Missions for you, brb while i go and do this.
99+ day(s) ago
speaking about missions : are `you` finally getting near to end the missions for my Viral empire as promised !?
ol� Raistlin , so long we don`t speak .
99+ day(s) ago
Balzac, you ` do ` realize that it`s the same as if someone completed a mission and for free ships, right? The empire will not suddenly be able to build the ship they requested "if" they win and choose the 1st option.
99+ day(s) ago
why are you giving this !?
first I didn`t (and I still don`t) agree taking ships from races who win UW to other races, and now you invent another 1 more idea to give ships to any race (even for people that has no paids ? ).
are we so much desperate to be nice ???
99+ day(s) ago
umm, I would think it would just be one of the choices numbered 1-5, I`m sure it`ll get edited soon to erase the confusion
99+ day(s) ago
coz i`m a bit curious on this part...
"#1 A stack of your choice any ship, Or any prize below yours."
99+ day(s) ago
hmmm... interested to join the raffle but i`m not interested with the ships... :P
to make things clear... is the winner will get and choose either 1 out of 5 prizes OR ship`s stack PLUS 1 out of 4 (#2 - #5) of the prizes?
The first place winner will get to choose a stack of their choice,
one of the other prizes (#2-#5) if they do not want the ships.

sounds good to me, though generally in raffles I`m always one or two numbers off :(
99+ day(s) ago
Flashy, it`s just a single ship in your fleet, I assume, and once it`s killed, then it`s gone. Of course, a low base person with just a zul ship and dummies may be a pain for other low powered people, till the counters rain down
99+ day(s) ago
looking good so far... it does need to start somewhere... a vote yes frm me...
some games out there are rewarding players to play daily with gifts/prizes that needed in respective games... i don`t see why SFGC should be different when it comes to promotion and attracting players...
rewards are not just only for skills coz not all players are skillable but they love to play the game... look at me, i don`t have any skill whatsover in fighting/stacking, but i`ve spent a lot of time in this game coz i can see what this game can give me other than fighting/battle every single day...
keep up and be creative... it`s long overdue... :)

it has nothing to do with you ren. like nothing ever has to do with you. this is just to prove how effective my post was cuz before that gc was a desert and people were not doing anything. not its the opposite...anyways, wish i could play the raffle too :P
99+ day(s) ago
*secretly waiting for the huge flame war when a memebrr of cc wins*
99+ day(s) ago
do the ships have upkeep?
99+ day(s) ago
What does that have to do with you or me or whatever and the current situation?
99+ day(s) ago
this one ren
99+ day(s) ago
Hmmm... The Kalzul Ship may be a bit too much. Falls into the wrong hands (i.e. anyone`s but mine), and that makes that one a forminable foe. I`d rather have seen something like 3-5 PCCs instead. Worthy, but temporary. A ship is like....well...forever.
99+ day(s) ago
What? What maru thread? Wat? I so confused
99+ day(s) ago
yeh i wonder if i hadnt posted that maru thread ren, if you all had this now. and its probably also thanks to AC whos creating a clone and soon everyone will leave the game anyways :) but yeh. good work on making gc a little more interesting. cudos

The members of the Anson Economic Development Corporation received some encouraging news regarding the local economy during the organization's monthly meeting Thursday morning.
During his report on county government to the AEDC, County Manager Lawrence Gatewood reported that the Belk Building renovations should be completed by the first week in March, and that he and the contractors have been able to get the cost of a new emergency services center down to $3.6 million. The proposed emergency services center will go before the county commissioners in January, Gatewood said, and if approved, ground will be broken in February.
The facility will be financed by the county, he explained, and added that the building will be about 24,000 square feet. "That may seem very large," Gatewood said, "but keep in mind, we're building it to last a long time and to meet our needs for a long time to come."
In addition, Gatewood reported that one of the doctor's offices at the current Anson Community Hospital may be able to be converted into new offices for the Board of Elections, which would make the board more accessible than its current location in the basement of the Anson County Government Center.
AEDC chairman Chuck Horne also shared some good news on the textile industry front. He said he's received word lately of three textile companies locating in North Carolina, South Carolina and Virginia, which he said he believes is a good indication that the textile business could conceivably return to Anson County.
"A lot of the cutting and sewing is still being done in Mexico and Central America," Horne admitted, "but it may eventually bring some business back to Anson County."
In other business, Don Altieri suggested that the board use its January meeting as a chance to set two or three major goals for 2013. "We should be a little more proactive in terms of what's coming," he said.
Dale Nelson also pointed out that the county has two new representatives in the General Assembly, and should work to make them both aware of AEDC and its economic development efforts in Anson. The group agreed to plan a luncheon in the first quarter of 2013 and invite Senator-Elect Mark Brody and Representative-Elect Gene McLaurin.
The AEDC will next meet on Jan. 17 at 7:30 a.m. in the Anson County Chamber of Commerce, 107-A E. Wade St., Wadesboro.
