Seminar Description
Release engineering is an important sub-discipline in software engineering, albeit not extensively researched. For small software projects and development teams, there exist plenty of tools and best practices, which enable automated builds, integration, testing, and deployment. However, getting software released to users is often a painful, risky, and time-consuming process. This holds true especially for large software product lines. Adding to the complexity are legacy systems, inhomogeneous environments, and big development team.
Yet, huge companies managed to establish a process to release their software. For example, Mozilla changed their release management in 2011 and now they are capable to deliver major releases every six weeks and fix security issues within eleven hours. In contrast, a great number of companies struggle to release their products within a year.
Maybe it is time to consider release engineering as a discipline of its own, rather than a task that is done "by the tester or developer in passing".

Images of San Diego
Category Archives: Shopping
Skip the crowded malls and head to Coronado's charming Christmas tree-lined main street, Orange Ave., to discover delightful boutique shops and galleries selling all sorts of unique gifts this holiday season.
Men and shopping? You bet! And San Diego is just the place to find that perfect ensemble to fit any occasion. As a personal wardrobe stylist I feel that clothing for men is less complicated than for women. San Diego's … Read More…
Even though San Diego's consistent favorable weather might make you think that we don't shop for the latest fall and winter fashion trends; we certainly embrace the season's ensembles that fit our active lifestyle and great weather!
At the "Westfield Style Tour," Stacy London, from What Not To Wear, described San Diego's style as healthy, colorful, and cheerful and that made me think that the jewel tones for fall and winter will fit perfectly! Some key pieces to buy while visiting San Diego would be, colored denim, a casual-chic jacket, or a gem colored holiday dress.
Some of these items can be found at various boutiques around San Diego after the break.
San Diego may be a laid-back town, but we take our food very seriously. With a diverse landscape and mild temperatures, San Diego County boasts ideal conditions for farming, so it's no surprise that the county is home to more than 6,000 small and family-owned farms. These farmers provide chefs from local restaurants with access to the freshest possible ingredients, but you don't have to pull up a seat at a restaurant to enjoy some of San Diego's local bounty.
San Diego is home to dozens of vibrant neighborhoods, each with its own style and flair, and it's in these neighborhoods that you'll often find San Diego's best hidden treasures.
Though the neighborhood may once have been home to San Diego's flourishing tuna fishing industry, today's Little Italy is a lively and design-conscious neighborhood filled with patio cafes, restaurants, pubs, art galleries and some of the city's most stylish shops.
New York, Paris, Milan and…San Diego? Yes, you can add this beach town to the list of top fashion destinations thanks to some up-and-coming designers, hip boutiques sprouting up across neighborhoods and the return of Fashion Week San Diego.
True San Diego fashionista's know about the urban-chic areas to shop at. For those of you who may not know, I thought I would share some of the areas that have a cool-factor and can accomplish most shopping missions. Three of my fav's are Hillcrest, North Park and South Park. These neighborhoods offer a unique shopping experience for both women and men with clothing, vintage, accessories and home goods.
How would Candice spend one perfect day in San Diego? Hint: it involves murals painted beneath the Coronado Bridge, shopping at a pop-up flea market and cocktails sporting tiny umbrellas.
I am in Old Town at midnight. I am not surprised. While it is a place, without question, built for tourists, I balk at the suggestion that 'locals don't go there' and such 'traps' should be avoided by those looking for an 'authentic' experience.
For me, there is nothing more authentic and alluring than the post-structuralist break-down of real and pretend. Old Town is a piece of living theater staged on the actual blood, sweat and bones of San Diego's history. The lines between reality and mythology blur amongst historical landmarks and themed restaurants, dusty graveyards and costumed guides.
Summer is a time to let your hair down and start enjoying the glorious weather! During the months of June-August San Diego is known for an average high of 76 degrees and a low of 65 degrees. What does this mean when it comes to defining San Diego style? I like to call it California-Laid-Back-Chic!
Basically, our city is an active one, so styles need to be comfy yet chic. We are casual but do dress up when the occasion permits. Make sure to pack lightweight cotton and silk clothing, jeans, t-shirts, shorts and summer-type dresses for the warm days and a either a fitted jacket or a lightweight sweater for the cool evenings. During the day, always have handy your "sunnies" (sunglasses) and a cool hat like a Fedora.
There are many boutiques located throughout the quaint neighborhoods of San Diego offering great summer fashion and after the break are just a few of my favorites.

My number one trick so to speak is:
Nothing sucks the creative juices out of you quicker. Now on to more photo specific:
> meter the north sky, it's pretty much 18%
> always carry the small Kodak Photograpers Guide, a wealth of info
> I hang my camera bag from the center of my tripod to give it extra stability
> I tripod almost everything I do, even 35mm (it makes a difference even at higher shutter speeds)
> carry a small tool kit
I also GPS all my shots so I can add it to my notes and if I ever want to go back to a spot exactly it's a no brainer. I can also plan when to be there based on sun and moon info from the GPS. So if I'm going back to a spot in Malaysia that I did 3 years ago and want a specific kind of light I can do some pre planning. Logistics will kill ya.
> always have a backup camera

Sync with Outlook
Todoist I downloaded trial version, and also the Outlook plugin, planning to spend the premium version if everything works fine. Usually work a lot with Outlook tasks, and do not know how to synchronize with Todoist. Can I be indicate the steps?
All responses
Hi Angel,
Todoist does not sync with Outlook tasks, it only adds a window to Todoist within Outlook. All you need to do is head to this link http://todoist.com/outlook and download the exe file. Run the installer and it should be installed.
We are in the process though, of finishing a large update that addresses many issues, some of those are people having trouble getting it even installed. We hope to have this done soon.
In this case, I can import existing tasks from Outlook?
Hello Angel,
Unfortunately, that's not possible. Our Outlook plugin will display a window with your Todoist account and tasks in it, but you can't move existing tasks from Outlook's own "Tasks" feature to Todoist.
Best regards,
I installed TD before I realised this was the case. Without a means to import task from Outlook I will uninstall and look elsewhere as the effort would be too great to manually move people over.
You can "forward" your outlook task to your own email, then add the email as a task in todoist. Kind of clumsy, but will work. You can either leave the email title as your todoist tasks, or edit it to something different.
It would be nice to be able to import your outlook tasks into todoist. Maybe someday.
shylock102 - I'm in the same boat. Need to import tasks from Outlook. *sigh*. Was hoping this app would be the one for me, but it does not sounds like so. :(
My recommendation is to give up on outlook tasks. Todoist tasks are much more powerful. The main benefit of the outlook plugin is to engage your tasks in the same interface as your email, which i love. ^_^
can you drag emails into todoist outlook window and create a task from those emails? I am not as concerned with outlook tasks, but is it simple to drag and drop emails into todoist outlook window?
Also can't install outlook plugin so far, won't install vsto and net framework. hope for some guidance on this.
Hello Jenn,
Unfortunately, you can't drag & drop a mail, but you can use the "Add to Todoist" button from the toolbar, "Add email as task" link in the Quick Add option and at the bottom of your task list in any project.
As for the installation issues, I will reply in the other thread you've created: https://todoist.com/Support/show/32112/?inbox=1
Best regards,
Hi David,
Todoist appears to be lovely but I have the same issues as others in this thread. Too much of my work needs to be integrated into Outlook for the Todoist approach to work.
Having this feature would permits to use it with many other already outlook integrated plugins like TROG bar
Thank you,
What a waste of time to pretend letting people "integrate" your application/program on platforms, without any interaction being able to take place!
Unfortunately, other programs and apps are way more often used, and it would be a great feature to be able to combine your app with those.
It is misleading and very disappointing.
Agree with Yaelle. Your marketing got to rephrase that line (instead of keep copying the texts over other pages) as corporate people CANNOT drop stuff from Outlook Exchange and ask the whole company to use todoist. Todoist got to work with Outlook Exchange in order to say it integrates w/ it.
Bummer on Outlook tasks & todoist. I have too many tasks in Outlook now to manually input all of them into another system. :(
Cant todist task automatically comes to outlook?
Agree with most of the users regarding the misleading marketing - adding a window in Outlook IS NOT integrating. I can get more done with Outlook and Evernote for that matter. ToDoist is a promising app but without integration with Exchange they can't hope for much success in luring Outlook users.
I have a business premium acct, 6 users. 4 of the users are experiencing no problems getting todoist to pull right up when they pull up their outlook email, but two are having problems. One of them it's works sometimes. The other is a new user. She can see all of our todos, but not when she pulls up outlook. 4 of us see todoist when we pull up outlook.
Hi David,
Try asking them to log out and log in again to see if that helps with the problem. If not, please describe to me exactly what type of issue they're running into.
The outlook plugin is really not useful if it can't sync with outlook.
I can't manually sit and keep these lists up to date.
what would have been a 5* app is still stuck at 3*, despite a year of progression
I think it would be super great if Todoist could **finally** address an easy means for syncing/importing/whatever Outlook/Exchange tasks into Todoist tasks. Copying and pasting is not an answer.
agree with the rest of the group. For example I can create tasks in one note but only outlook tasks to my knowledge. If we could add an outlook task to todoist or if they would link up in some way it would be awesome. If this is never going to happen I will likely look for another task manager
Agreed. True Outlook integration of tasks is a must. The app is really useless to corporate users without it - just one more noisy bit of daily housekeeping to manage.
Just signed up, spent an hour downloading and exploring and linking, and now I discover that the app won't do the very thing I was so excited to discover that it would do. The app looks wonderful otherwise, but no point working on it further.

I second all of the comments above. Very misleading verbiage.
This program is worthless without Outlook task integration. I thought this was going to be a sweet way to organize my Onenote created tasks... turns out its just useless. Sigh.
echoing the above thoughts... very frustrating when you cant sync your tasks in with outlook
Is there a project of development for that sync feature ?
Good question Jean Jodeau, I would like to know the same Thing and agree with all the other who are frustrated about the fact that you cannot automatically sync Outlook Tasks with TD ...
I would like to know the same. Is there a true sync in development?
I also echo that the marketing of the outlook feature is misleading. It's merely a webpage displayed in outlook. It doesn't use the outlook interface, no drag and drop, no integration into any parts of outlook other than inserting a web page, which in my experience isn't even consistent in how ofter it displays.
I want to like ToDoist, because of the multi-platform aspect and the clean interface but is getting a little more challenging the deeper I look into it.
On the topic of getting outlook tasks to ToDoist, there is a one way path, all be it a lot of work to setup.
It's Outlook through gSyncit to Toodledo to Todoport (great little service by an independent developer that the folks at Todoist should be sponsoring: https://todoport.com). As I say a pain, but if you have lots of tasks, could be easier than all that re-keying.
Agree with those feeling misled by the marketing language - I bought Premium thinking my Outlook Tasks could be synced. Just not feasible or a good use of time for me to now manually retype all my Outlook Tasks. Very disappointing and I will be rating as such.
Also looking for Todoist and Outlook sync - As a corporate user this does not work well for me without the two being able to work together
I tried installing todoist on widnows several times and it doesn't integrate in outlook in anyway.. I think this is some sort of troubleshooting because I had it integrated before and it worked..
Is there integration to outloom.com as there is with the gmail web client?
Hello all, I AM using the Todoist plug in for Outlook, not the actual built in tasks in Outlook - and it won't sync anyways! Will not sync between the plug in, my desktop program, my phone, or my ipad. Have signed out/signed in, uninstalled & installed. The reviews said it was wonderful but now I'm wondering who actually wrote them since we're all in the same boat ....
Just installed the Todoist plugin for outlook - really disappointed when I realised it wasn't going to manage my outlook tasks ... what's the point of the outlook add-in?? Does anyone have a suggestion for another good product that will integrate properly with outlook?
TD needs to apply some resources to have TD sync with ourlook.com. Paid for the pro version and as it stands we will not renew the subscription.
Was just about to purchase, until I came to the realization that this program does not do exactly the one thing I need it to do. If you ever fix that, let me know - but there is NO WAY I am starting over again with 300+ tasks.
You need to adjust your marketing or fix your app. What a waste of time only to end up where I already was.
Dear Todoist staff,
I am joining the crowd:) Please fix this issue.
Currently Todoist is NOT integrated with Outlook.
Thank you
Guys, their outlook page (https://todoist.com//outlook) has a 1-minute youtube video that quite well describes the way they've integrated with Outlook. The big value is in linking to emails, and I use this daily. They've never stated nor implied that they interact with the Outlook task list, so I don't think anyone's been mislead. That's my two cents worth anyway.
I am in agreement with everyone else - this is very disappointing to find out that I would have to start all over again importing my 300+ tasks into a new format. I truly thought when I read the reviews that this was the answer when I moved from my Blackberry (with its great task management and integration with Outlook) to iPhone with (its terrible Reminders system). Alas, no such luck.
Todoist was and is clear that Outlook task sync is not available. GUI integration works and really makes sense. Looks like a trick, but I do not feel betrayed or something like that.
However, without a Outlook task synchronization, Todoist firewalls out users that eg. use OneNote, business users that need to use Outlook tasks for corporate reasons and users that use tools who integrate with Outlook tasks. I think of Mindmappers and further productivity tools. Salesforce CRM is another business tool that is blocked out without Outlook task integration/sync.
The alternative would be ToodleDo with gSyncit, which works really reliable.
MLO (MyLifeOrganized) also seems to be an alternative, less good design, but at least as flexible and powerful as Todoist.
None of the alternatives I used and tried over the years offer a Outlook GUI integration. That's a "wow factor" for Todoist. But without task synchronization, one would have to touch tasks to work on in multiple tools. That's a showstopper...
OL (Outlook) categories could be TD projects. TD flags could go into a custom field or as OL categories prefixed with something customizable. MLO does a really good job here, since it also allows to filter what gets synchronized. It uses custom fields in OL, but the user does not need to customize the OL Task form. gSyncit works also reliably good, does not use custom/hidden fields in OL. Has a good filter mechanism and options to translate between categories, flags, folders of the different tools.
Therefore I hope that Outlook GUI integration was the first milestone of Todoist for Outlook. Looking forward to see the next milestone to become GA: Outlook task integration.
"Todoist is the best to-do list and task list app for Microsoft Outlook"
"Get the only to-do app that integrates seamlessly into Outlook."
These are statements taken direct from the website.
I'll join the rest and just say this advertising is extremely misleading.
There is no mobile app support for Outlook tasks.
I was very close to signing up my team. Thank goodness I did not.
Like the majority of users remarked, I concur: this is misleading to the max. I have 10+ years invested in Outlook tasks, and I actually use my tasks correctly; they're not to dos, nor are they fancy calendar items.
I'm moving back to My Live Organized.

Newbury Park museum revives pioneer arts, skills for kids
The Stagecoach Inn Museum in Newbury Park treated families to a Pioneer Jamboree that included 18 activities of yesteryear such as butter churning, cornhusking, gold panning and storytelling, giving kids an appreciation for the history of the times.
Event coordinator Joyce Michelsen said about 50 costumed volunteers were working on the six-acre property, and 400-600 guests were expected.
"I love seeing children get involved in history," Michelsen said. "Some of our docents are junior docents from 8 years old to 15 years old. They have training and are here one or two Saturdays a month and work special events."
Two junior docents from Thousand Oaks, Andria Murray, 11 and Audrey Tiedje, 11, were over at the village smith, Rick Barnard, getting rings he made from nails.
"I like being a docent because I like talking to people about old things," Andria said.
"I also like history," Audrey said. "I like studying about it, and when I have friends over, I like pretending like we live in the 1800s."
Panning for gold was a popular activity in which kids were able to pan for the iron pyrite or "fools gold" and then use tweezers to extract it from the pan and put into a bag to take home.
Docent Dan Murphy assisted the kids and gave them the history of how discovery of gold in California in 1848 began the rush in 1849 and led to the doubling of population and the establishment of statehood in 1850.
"This is fun," said 7-year old Hailey Brickley, of Camarillo.
Ashley Stevens, 10, of Las Vegas, went to the event while visiting cousins in the area with her family.
"This is awesome," Ashley said. "We blew bubbles, played pioneer games, dressed in pioneer clothes and just churned butter."
Carter Peterson and his friend Ty Williams, 10, of Thousand Oaks, were juicing lemons with old-fashioned squeezers.
"We listened to some stories, we panned for gold and I really enjoyed getting a tour of the stagecoaches," said 9-year-old Carter.
"Panning for gold was fun because I got a pretty good-sized nugget," Ty said.
The two boys went over to the washboard and Carter began washing clothes and said he didn't think the process back in pioneer days was more difficult.
"Drying was easier back then," he said, referring to hanging garments on a clothesline.
"What time of day do you think they were doing it?" asked docent Claudia McHarg.
"Probably early in the morning," Carter said.
"Yes, daybreak," McHarg said.
"I usually get up early," Carter said.
"OK, but then come back in an hour and try to wear those jeans," McHarg said with a laugh.
Showing the carriage house, docent Allan Abrams said: "We tell the kids there were no computers, no electronic games or cellphones back then, and some of them say, 'That would be fine.' And I say, 'Really? What if we take that Xbox away?' They say, 'Just don't take that away.' "

According to Adrian Wojnarowski of Yahoo! Sports, the Celtics are currently waiting to hear whether they will get a meeting with free agent power forward Kevin Love.
Love played this season with the Cavaliers, averaging 16.4 points and 9.7 rebounds per game. The Cavaliers swept the Celtics in the first round of the playoffs, but Love was injured in the process.
In a tie-up with Celtics center Kelly Olynyk, Love suffered a dislocated left shoulder that required surgery. The injury knocked Love out for the remainder of the playoffs, as the Cavs won the Eastern Conference before losing to the Warriors in the NBA Finals.
Last summer, as a member of the Timberwolves, Love was the subject of many trade rumors and the Celtics were reportedly in the mix to land the All-Star. Boston was sent into a frenzy when Love was seen with then-Celtics point guard Rajon Rondo while taking in a Red Sox game at Fenway Park last summer.
In the end, the Timberwolves traded Love to the Cavs for package that included 2014 No. 1 overall pick Andrew Wiggins.
Love opted out of his contract in June and became a free agent, but many reports suggest that he is likely to re-sign in Cleveland.
The Boston Celtics are still awaiting word on whether they'll get a meeting with Cleveland free agent Kevin Love, league source tells Yahoo.

Celtics president of basketball operations Danny Ainge introduced the team's 2015 draft class at a press conference Tuesday at the team's practice facility in Waltham.
Celtics president of basketball operations Danny Ainge introduced the team's 2015 draft class at a press conference Tuesday at the team's practice facility in Waltham.
Ainge sat alongside coach Brad Stevens, team president Rich Gotham and the Celtics' newest members — Terry Rozier, R.J. Hunter, Jordan Mickey and Marcus Thornton.
With Ainge and the Celtics taking a lot of heat since the draft about potentially overrating Rozier, who they selected at No. 16 overall, much of the dialogue centered around the Louisville guard and how he managed to move so far up the C's draft board.
"It started in my college career, I just got in a lot of work in the gym," Rozier told reporters. "I left a lot of coaches with great impressions then I came here. I just work hard and show what I can do, which is toughness, defense, showing I can shoot the ball a little better than my college stats show. … I'm just excited to be playing for a … great franchise with 17 world titles and just to meet my new teammates and get it started."
Ainge followed up to Rozier's answer, saying he was always high on the team's draft board. Rozier averaged a team-leading 17.1 points per game last year.
"He was always that high on our draft board," Ainge said. "For the last couple months he's been a guy that we had known and looked about and thought was very underrated based on the media and how they perceived him. Terry, because of the quality of player he is, was moving up rapidly in the last few weeks of the draft process as far as the attention he was getting around the league and that started scaring us because we thought we had a diamond in the rough that nobody really was valuing all that much."
Though many expected the Celtics to emerge from the draft with solid, rim-protecting big men, Ainge surprised many when he selected guards with three out of his four picks. When asked about how he can set himself apart on a guard-heavy roster, Rozier conversely described how he intends to fit in with the rest of the Celtics' roster.
"[I bring] a winner's mentality," Rozier said. "I'm not really so worried about how many guards we've got, [it's] more about how I can come in and fit for this team, fit for this league and help my team improve. That's what I'm more worried about, 'How can I help this team?'"
Rozier led the Cardinals in points (17.1), steals (2.0) and free throw percentage (79 percent) last season. He stands undersized for a two-guard at 6-foot-2, however, he has a 6-foot-8 wingspan, which gives him shutdown capabilities on the defensive end.
For more information about Rozier, check out his draft profile.
The Celtics are expected to inquire about almost every available name this summer, so their rumored interest in Greg Monroe and Al-Farouq Aminu should come as no
The Celtics are expected to inquire about almost every available name this summer, so their rumored interest in Greg Monroe and Al-Farouq Aminu should come as no surprise in the days leading up to the July 1 free agent frenzy.
The 6-foot-11, 253-pound Monroe will meet with the Celtics, Blazers, Bucks, Knicks and Lakers this week, according to The Advocate in Baton Rouge. The Louisiana native averaged 15.9 points (54.9 true shooting percentage), 10.2 rebounds, 2.1 assists and 1.1 steals per game for the Pistons this past season, producing a 21.2 player efficiency rating.
Monroe certainly fulfills a rebounding need for the Celtics, ranking among the league's top 20 in both offensive rebound percentage (11.2) and defensive rebound percentage (25.1). He is an adept scorer inside of 8 feet, where he made more than 90 percent of his successful field goals.
However, Monroe isn't an elite defender, as opponents shoot a robust 55.1 percent at the rim against him. For reference sake, Tyler Zeller, Kelly Olynyk, Jared Sullinger and Brandon Bass all held opponents to a lower field goal percentage at the rim. Monroe also doesn't have the floor-spacing ability that Celtics coach Brad Stevens seems to covet, as the big man converted just 34.8 percent of his 92 shots outside of 8 feet.
Similarly, Aminu will sit down with the Celtics, Blazers, Knicks, Pelicans and Raptors, according to NBA.com's David Aldridge. The 24-year-old wing averaged 5.6 points (50.4 true shooting percentage) and 4.6 rebounds in just 18.5 minutes for the Mavericks in 2014-15, registering a 14.4 player efficiency rating.
The Mavs' defense improved by four points per 100 possessions with Aminu on the floor, so he has the defense portion of a 3-and-D wing down. It's his 3-point shooting that remains in question. Aminu shot just 27.4 percent on 1.7 3-pointers per game this past season — right around his career 28.6 3-point percentage.
Neither Monroe nor Aminu would transform the Celtics into contenders, although both would help improve the roster. But at what cost? Aminu should be an affordable option, although it appears the C's will have to outbid several other teams for his services, and Monroe is rumored to be looking for a short-term max deal that would make him a free agent again in two seasons, which could work well for both sides.
ESPN basketball insider Jeff Goodman appeared on Middays with MFB on Friday to talk about the Celtics and the rest of the NBA draft.
ESPN basketball insider Jeff Goodman appeared on Middays with MFB on Friday to talk about the Celtics and the rest of the NBA draft. To listen to the interview, visit the MFB audio on demand page.
Goodman was highly critical of the Celtics' selection of Terry Rozier with the 16th pick of the draft. Goodman acknowledged that general manager Danny Ainge tried to move up to a higher pick, but Goodman was disappointed with the choice of Rozier when those efforts did not prove fruitful.
"I really like Terry Rozier at 16, but not for the Celtics. I think it was just the wrong pick," Goodman said. "I'm usually a big fan of Ainge and how he drafts. Not a great shooter. My take is they've already got mediocre-shooting perimeter guys. Combo guards, they've got plenty of them. Avery Bradley, Marcus Smart and now you add Terry Rozier to the mix."
As a result of this apparent logjam at the guard position, it seems likely that more roster moves are on the horizon. According to Goodman, the Celtics are looking to trade guards but have found that the current Celtics may not have much value.
"I don't know if they have enough value that you can move Avery Bradley or Marcus Smart right now. I think they're trying," he said. "From what teams have told me, Marcus Smart is on the block, but he doesn't have quite enough value, so it's going to be interesting to see if Ainge does make a move."
Goodman said that, given the players still on the board at 16, the Celtics should have taken Wisconsin swingman Sam Dekker.
"I think Dekker was the best talent and he fit the best need at that point. He's a 6-foot-9 3-man who's pretty athletic and showed last year in the NCAA tournament, he might have been the best player up until the national title game. … just feel like Dekker was worth the risk, his upside is higher," Goodman said.
On the whole, the Celtics didn't do much to better themselves on draft night, according to Goodman.
"I just don't know how much the Celtics helped themselves right now. I think Danny Ainge is probably frustrated because he felt like they had an opportunity to do so. … Terry Rozier, today, can't beat out Avery Bradley or Marcus Smart," he said.
The Celtics also owned the 28th pick in the draft. They used it to select Georgia State shooting guard R.J. Hunter, who hit one of the most memorable shots of this year's NCAA tournament. Goodman was more impressed with the Celtics' second selection, despite the fact that Hunter, scouted to be a great shooter, made only 30.5 percent of his 3-point attempts last season.
"I know the numbers don't necessarily make him look like he's a knockdown shooter, but he really is. He's probably the third- or fourth-best shooter that came out of this draft, maybe even better. I like R.J. a lot. .. . I think he can help. He can help because he gives you something you really don't have, which is a perimeter shooter," Goodman said.
Despite the dissatisfaction with the front office's draft performance, Goodman remains optimistic that the Celtics can improve later in the offseason, either via trade or free agency.
"I haven't given up on this offseason," he said. "Danny Ainge is still one of the better guys in terms of making deals out there. He's active, he's smart."
The Celtics surprised almost everyone by grabbing Louisville point guard Terry Rozier with their first pick in Thursday's draft, and followed that by taking George State shooting guard R.J. Hunter, LSU power forward Jordan Mickey and William & Mary point guard Marcus Thornton.
Did Danny Ainge do the right thing by taking the players he considered the most talented available, or was it a mistake to load up with undersized guards on a team that already has a plethora of undersized guards?Note: There is a poll embedded within this post, please visit the site to participate in this post's poll.

As a Reiki Master Teacher Tania has been practicing and teaching both within and outside the U.S. since 2007 with clients and students internationally, many of which are themselves practicing practitioners and teachers, but also many who have simply integrated Reiki into their every day lives and experience enhancement and support as a direct result.

Tania has spent most of her life on a conscious spiritual journey. Although as a child she experienced the igniting of this passion, it truly sparked on an intentful level when she was in her mid-teens. She has since been on a devoted evolution to not only deepen her own journey, but to share the inspiration and experiences from that journey with others.
In doing so, her focus evolved into that of a bridge-worker, supporting others to open to their own conscious connections that could shift their lives with enhanced abundance and inspired passion.
Emerald Bridge was inspired by the energy of the Heart Chakra, which is an energetic "bridge" between the lower and upper Chakras in the human energy system. It's color is green and the gemstone emerald embodies its essence.
It's from this place of centered harmony that love emanates as divine power, which enables you to be the creator of your experiences. Tania's experience in healing arts and metaphysics is the foundation of her support.
Tania believes life to be a "walking meditation" that consistently conveys the practices she embodies in the integrity of her own example.
"What if our religion was each other
If our practice was our life
If prayer, our words.
What if the temple was the earth
If forests were our church
If holy water – the rivers, lakes, and oceans
What if meditation was our relationships
If the Teacher was life
If wisdom was self-knowledge
If love was the center of our being"
~ Ganga White

"Creating life as a work of art" is Tania's personal motto. You can read her article as a Wild Woman contributing writer to Wild Woman Community here: Creating Life as a Work of Art

Art has been a part of Tania's life since she first learned to hold a crayon. Creativity naturally and effortlessly flowed through her as an expression of her sensitivities to experiences and as result of her very vivid and active imagination. Her instincts first channeled through as animal drawings, which has come full circle as the focal point of her newest series, Universal ARKitecture.
Art was an unspoken language shared during the many hours she spent drawing side by side at the kitchen table with her French grandfather. It is in those silent hours of creative expression that Tania's artistic gift received unconditional support and encouragement that nurtured the artist within. She believes in fostering the same in others.
All of her services are offered both locally and internationally. She can be commissioned for sacred tattoo designs. Tania offers ongoing distant Reiki treatments, as well as inspiring and supportive Reiki, art, crystal, and spiritual growth workshops worldwide.

"Sunny Capital in the Paradise State" Honolulu by DSwede
Honolulu Travel Guide: 2,017 reviews and 4,836 photos
Honolulu, on the island of Oahu, is the busiest place in the Pacific. And even with saying that, it is still relatively laid back and quiet.
The islands have seen their fair share of historic landmark events, but arguably the most infamous was the bombing of Pearl Harbor just outside of Honolulu. But the other events leading to that point in history are just as important. The area's history involves lots of battling islands, tribal monarchies, gods of the volcanoes and all other things under the sky, European explorers and their influences, as well as waves of immigrants from many various countries.
Today, most visitors will busy themselves in Waikiki, playing on the beaches and shopping in the arcades. Also, the Pearl Harbor Memorials and the US Army Museum are very well presented, emotionally charged and important to many others, they are both free.
I have walked the city and beachfront from Fisherman's Wharf all the way past Waikiki. The city has pockets of residential, areas of resorts, centers of commercial businesses, etc. It is a resort and a city all rolled into one.
On my most recent visit, I had a 12-hour layover from 7am~7pm. In that time, I was able to visit the USS Arizona Memorial at Pearl Harbor, walk the waterfront, visit the free US Army Museum, visit Chinatown and even managed time for a beer and a bite.
Feel free to visit some of my other pages on Hawaii, spreading over a couple year's worth of trips over many of the islands.
(for more pictures, feel free to visit my USA Gallery. If you enjoy the pictures, please leave a comment.)
- Pros:Easy to walk due to its size and being flat.
- Cons:The area of Waikiki is very dense with tourists
- In a nutshell:Tourist mecca and commercial hub all in one

This is a very good vitamin. My doctor prescribed it for me when I was struggling with adrenal fatigue and wants me to continue on it now that I'm pregnant (and afterward). I was taking a chewable prenatal vitamin while I had morning sickness, because I found 6 Optivite tablets a day a bit much too swallow. It's obvious from the labels that Optivite is a much better choice, but I still hate swallowing them, and taking them crushed is even worse. But I've noticed that some of my pregnancy symptoms (like my constant runny nose) have abated since I started taking it.

"Our hope is that understanding all of these things will come together -- that once we've figured out how to make the cell source that we'll also have figured out how to block the immune response, but there's a lot of basic science one has to do to get there," said Greenstein.
The good news, she added, is that "there's an incredible amount of exciting research that has the capacity to impact the disease in the long-term going on."

Bloom Baked Apples recipe have a Caramel in the middle (cut like a Bloomin' Onion), baked and topped with vanilla ice cream and Caramel Cinnamon Sauce
{baked bloomin' apple recipe} oh. my. word.
Blooming Baked Apples Ingredients 2 Honeycrisp apples (or other crisp apples) 2 tbsp butter 3 tbsp brown sugar, packed 1 tbsp flour 1 tsp cinnamon 4 caramels Optional toppings: vanilla ice cream, caramel sauce and cinnamon Instructions Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. To get the blooming apple look, you need to cut the apples. Slice off the top ¼ to ⅓ of the apples. Scoop out the core. I don't have an apple corer so I used my metal ½ teaspoon measuring spoon. Then, use a thin knife to make two, deep circular cuts around the center of the apple. Next, turn the apple over and make narrow cuts all the way around the apple. Flip it back over and you can see all of the cuts. Place the apples in an oven safe dish and put two caramels into the center of each apple. Heat butter and brown sugar in the microwave for 30 second, stir and continue heating for an additional 30 seconds. Remove from the microwave and stir in flour and cinnamon. Divide the mixture over the top of the two sliced apples. Bake at 375 for 25-30 minutes. (Check apples after 25 minutes and continue cooking until tender. Some apples can take 45 min to 1 hour to soften.) Remove from the oven and use a large spoon to move the apples into bowls. Top with a scoop of ice cream, drizzle with caramel and sprinkle with cinnamon. The ice cream will cause the caramel in the center to harden so eat quickly or put the ice cream scoop on the side.

Blessings in a Backpack
BROOKSVILLE, FLORIDA (Hernando Today) - When Jan and Larry Nash lost their 37-year-old son two years ago in a car accident, they decided to take their grief and turn it into something positive.
Snowbirds from Michigan, the Nashs spend most of their time volunteering at food pantries or cooking meals for the homeless.
The Nashs carry on that generosity every Wednesday when they join their fellow church members at St. Andrews Episcopal Church on Deltona Boulevard, filling backpacks with food for local children as part of the Blessings in a Backpack program.
Funded through the local, nonprofit organization People Helping People, Blessings in a Backpack is a national program that feeds elementary school children who qualify for free or reduced meals and have little to no food on the weekends.
Jan Nash said volunteering with the program is a way to say thank you to those who lent a helping hand to her son, who was an Alaskan fisherman and sometimes didn't know when his next meal would be.
"We wanted to help someone else in need," she said. "It's nice to know there are people out there helping others."
Coordinator Maureen Follansbee said the program, which is based in Tennessee, started in September with Spring Hill Elementary School, feeding 50 children each weekend.
"These are children that go home with little to nothing to eat," she said.
Guidance counselors at each school identify the children most at risk, those living with parents or family members who are on a limited income, disabled, unemployed or facing home foreclosures.
Students pick up the backpacks every Friday afternoon and return them Monday morning to be restocked.
Each child receives two drinks, two breakfast items, one meat, one entrée, one fruit and one snack.
The program also sends home extra food for siblings under the age of 18 who also live in the homes.
Spring Hill Elementary School guidance counselor Julio Cruz said he has seen a significant improvement in the children's performance.
"One thing I immediately saw right away with them is they are a lot happier to come to school," he said. "Also, I have seen in terms of behavior it has really lessened their stress. It has really helped them focus on academics rather than what's going on at home."
Follansbee, who has been volunteering with People Helping People for the past two years, said the program runs successfully with teamwork and help from sponsors and volunteers like the members of St. Andrews.
The main branch in Tennessee supplies the backpacks, People Helping People purchases the food and volunteers pack the bags each week.
Just $80 feeds one child for the school year.
People Helping People plans to expand the program to another elementary school every year. This fall 50 students at Deltona Elementary will be receiving backpacks with help from the Sisterhood at Temple Beth David Jewish Center in Spring Hill.
"People Helping People has a board that is so eager about feeding the people of Hernando County," she said.
Follansbee also encourages donations from the community.
"It's just heartbreaking to think there are children who have no food on the weekends. They deserve a break," she said. "These kids are so appreciative. It really makes a difference to these kids."

"It isn't as though we didn't expect these state courts to avoid the massive controversy and public outrage that will erupt when the scope of the corruption at the highest levels involving top officials of Los Angeles' and Orange County's justice systems and the L.A. Sheriff's Department." said Goodwin, from his prison cell at R.J. Donovan Prison where he's serving two life sentences for ordering the killing of Mickey and Trudy Thompson.
"Now I have 5 more avenues of redress open to me'" Goodwin says. If you read just what the lead investigator did during the investigation, prosecution and at trial—-he's now under investigation by the L.A. Sheriff's Dept.—it is impossible to deny that I was wrongfully convicted."
As the internal investigation of L.A.S.D. of Detective Mark Lillienfeld goes on, read more about the case against him.read more
In a TV interview,John Bradley, Managing Director of Justice On Trial since 2002, makes the point of how critically broken the American justice system is. The non-profit advocacy organization for the wrongfully accused has adopted as its motto, a statement by former Supreme Court Justice Louis Brandeis, "Sunshine is the best disinfectant," in the belief that exposure in mass media of corruption is the only way to "disinfect" malfeasance at all levels where it exists.
Justice on Trial, a non-profit advocacy organization, has been assisting wrongfully accused persons for more than 14 years. Currently, the organization is working with Michael Goodwin who was convicted of the 1988 murders of Mickey and Trudy Thompson in 2007 and is serving two life terms.
After 8 years of battling with the Los Angeles District Attorney to get evidence suppressed at trial, and most of the missing evidence is still "missing,"
Michael F. Goodwin, convicted of the 1988 murders of off-road racing legend Mickey Thompson is asking the question, "Does anyone know, or care, who really killed Mickey Thompson?" Goodwin stated from his cell at R.J. Donovan State Prison, where he's serving two life sentences without possibility of parole, "Prosecutors never connected me to the murders because I had nothing to do with them." Goodwin has always maintained his innocence and his conviction was a surprise to many legal professionals familiar with the case. Regarding the prosecutors' assertion of who the shooters were, Goodwin says, "If they caught and questioned the actual shooters, it would be obvious that I was not involved. The D.A. alleged that the shooters were two African Americans and, following my wrongful conviction, they promised to pursue the killers but have not, because they can't be certain that the shooters were Black. In interviews at the time of the murders, every witness stated that the shooters were White." read more
"You're out of order! You're out of order! The whole trial is out of order" Al Pacino, as attorney Arthur Kirkland, in the 1979 film, "…And Justice For All," tells the judge and courtroom.That was thirty years ago; now, in any courtroom in the country, Pacino would be more correct in adding, "…the whole SYSTEM is out of order!." America must be doing some things right, though, since we imprison more than any country, where such records are available, on the planet. Per 100,000 in population, the U.S. puts away more than 700 while most other countries have imprisonment rates under 200. Even China has only 117 per 100,000; India only 29; Canada, 116; Mexico,169. The American Justice System has become the most efficient conviction machine in the known universe.
All those within the justice system, from law enforcement to those in the highest justice offices, are elected, appointed, advanced, ranked, paid, based on number of convictions. Convictions are the currency of justice. Too many acquittals translates to "soft on crime."
At the core of the system is the trial, by judge or jury. Conceived as a forum to to dole out justice to seekers of truth, the trial has morphed into a diabolical arena of conflict, where anything goes. read more

55 Yard Line
Video: Chad Owens made a catch-of-the-year candidate in a last-minute Argos' winAndrew Bucholtz at 55 Yard Line3 hrs ago
Tuesday's game set up as an extremely difficult one for the Toronto Argonauts. Thanks to the Blue Jays' postseason run, the Argos held a "home" game on the road in Ottawa against the Redblacks, who were coming offa 39-17 thumping of Montrealthat saw quarterback Henry Burris set a CFL completions record. Toronto fared much better against Ottawa than the Alouettes did, but with just 29 seconds left, they were still down by four points. That's when Chad Owens made one of the year's best catches:
Argonauts' Chad Owens makes catch of the year, securing season sweep of RedblacksNeate Sager at 55 Yard Line16 hrs ago
Some déjà vu flashed through Chad Owens' mind before he made the last-minute one-handed touchdown catch that titled the scales in the East Division.
In real time, and in the thousands of viewings to come, it looked like the Toronto Argonauts slotback's circus catch in the end zone with 24 seconds left on Tuesday came on an overthrown ball from his quarterback, Trevor Harris. Actually, Owens was recovering from being yanked off-stride by Ottawa Redblacks safety Forrest Hightower as he caught up laid out fully for the 10-yard scoring grab.
"He grabbed me because I beat him across his face, a little grab around the waist, try to slow me up," Owens explained following Toronto's 38-35 win at TD Place, which pulled the Argonauts and Hamilton Tiger-Cats (8-5) even in the East with the Redblacks (8-6) a half-length back.
"I just told myself to dig. Because there was a play earlier this year, a two-point convert against Hamilton, I believe. Same play, same route, same situation. And it was right over me, I missed it. I felt the exact same thing tonight. I told myself to dig, dig, dig and dig, and went for it.
Three Stars: Henry Burris, Mic'hael Brooks and Rene Paredes top Week FifteenAndrew Bucholtz at 55 Yard Line2 days ago
Welcome to another edition of the Three Stars, our regular look at each week's top performers on offence, defence and special teams. This time, we're examining the top showings from Week Fifteen's games.
Video: Justin Medlock's 10-yard punt into the wind set up Calgary's victoryAndrew Bucholtz at 55 Yard Line2 days ago
The Calgary Stampeders barely escaped Hamilton with a 23-20 win Friday thanks to two field goals in the final minute from kicker Rene Paredes, and a big part of the reason they were able to do so was thanks to a failed punt from the Tiger-Cats' Justin Medlock. Following Paredes' first field goal to tie the game with 48 seconds left, from 46 yards out, Hamilton wasn't able to advance the ball on their first two downs and sent out Medlock to punt into a fierce wind (which reached 60 kilometres per hour on the night). Here's what happened next:
Lions show life in 46-20 win over Riders, whose hopes are all but extinguishedAndrew Bucholtz at 55 Yard Line3 days ago
The B.C. Lions and Saskatchewan Roughriders seemed to enter Saturday night's game from different directions, with the Lions having lost their last three games and the Riders coming in off their second win of the year. They left it in different directions as well, but in a role reversal, with B.C. picking up a dominant 46-20 victory that revitalized their postseason hopes, while Saskatchewan was all but eliminated with the loss. The Lions are now back in playoff position, at least for the moment, and while there's tough sledding ahead, if they play the way they did Saturday, a postseason berth doesn't seem out of the question. Meanwhile, while the Riders aren't mathematically eliminated yet, their odds are long enough and their play in this one was poor enough that the playoffs seem all but unreachable for them.
Eskimos win battle of struggling offences on last-second FG, 4 missed Bomber FGsAndrew Bucholtz at 55 Yard Line3 days ago
As one Edmonton Eskimos' fan noted on Twitter, their 23-21 road win over the Winnipeg Blue Bombers Saturday might have been "the best bad football game in the history of bad football games." That's continuing this weekend's theme, as the Calgary-Hamilton struggleoff in the wind Friday would also be a strong contender, but Saturday's game managed to find new and remarkable ways to provide bad football. At least it had a thrilling ending, though; with the Bombers down 21-20 in the final two minutes, kicker Lirim Hajrullahu finally made his first field goal on the night from 45 yards (he'd previously missed from 45, 44, 43 and 40), but the Eskimos then drove down the field and Sean Whyte continued his perfect night, drilling a 53-yard field goal (his third successful FG of the evening) on the game's final play to give Edmonton a much-needed road win and improve their record to 10-4 on the season.
Tiger-Cats find a way to lose, as Stamps escape with 23-20 win on last-second FGAndrew Bucholtz at 55 Yard Line4 days ago
Friday night's CFL game in Hamilton had a whole variety of unexpected occurences, many thanks to the fierce wind, but the final moments that led to the visiting Stampeders pulling out a 23-20 win over the hometown Tiger-Cats were bizarre even by the standards of this contest. Calgary had the wind in the fourth quarter, and managed a late drive in the final two minutes from their own 43. That led to the Stampeders tying the game at 20 with just 53 seconds left on a 46-yard Rene Paredes field goal, but things got really weird after that.
How does Henry Burris' single-game completion mark compare to other records?Andrew Bucholtz at 55 Yard Line5 days ago
Ottawa Redblacks' quarterback Henry Burrisset the CFL's single-game completion record Thursday, notching 45 completions in Ottawa's 39-17 win over Montreal. That record was just part of a great overall performance from the 40-year-old Burris, as he threw for 504 yards and two touchdowns with no interceptions while also scrambling seven times for 13 yards and two further touchdowns. He was efficient, too, as it only took him 53 passing attempts (giving him a remarkable 84.9 per cent completion rate). This was quite probably the best performance of Burris' career and the best single-game showing of any CFL quarterback this season, but how does it stack up against some of the best other passing performances in the league's history? To get an idea, let's examine some of the CFL's other single-game passing records and compare the quarterback's overall performance to what Burris did Thursday.
Ottawa Redblacks' Henry Burris sets CFL record with 45 completionsNeate Sager at 55 Yard Line5 days ago
It must be all the yoga that is helping Henry Burris bend convention. It was not a shock the quarterback was still in the game after some of the crowd had started checking out on a record night for the Ottawa Redblacks.
Golfers have the milestone of shooting their age. Burris threw his age on Thursday. The 40-year-old future Hall of Famer set a CFL record for completions by going 45-of-53 for 504 yards with two touchdowns apiece by air and land during a 39-17 rout of the Montreal Alouettes, who were playing their second game in five days. There might have been an ersatz mark for most armchair coaches' brows furrowed when Burris played one more series, with a 36-point lead, after breaking Anthony Calvillo's seven-year-old completions record. Ottawa (8-5) simply wanted to stay as crisp as the night air with the Toronto Argonauts (7-5) coming to town on Tuesday.
Robert Marve's just the latest CFL player to retire young over health concernsAndrew Bucholtz at 55 Yard Line5 days ago
When the news of Winnipeg Blue Bombers' quarterback Robert Marve retiring broke earlier this week, it may not have seemed to be a big deal to many. Yes, Marve showed some potential in his two seasons in Winnipeg, particularly this year, but he was already on the six-game injured list thanks to a knee injury and appeared to be behind both Drew Willy and Matt Nichols in their long-term plans, so this wasn't necessarily hugely consequential for the Bombers. Marve could possibly have turned into a solid CFL player in future seasons with improvement and opportunity, but he wasn't there yet, and there's no guarantee he would have ever reached that level. Moreover, while Marve is just 26, he'd already suffered several significant knee injuries (including three torn ACLs in college), so his retirement isn't necessarily earth-shattering when viewed in isolation. When considered as part of the larger picture of younger players leaving the CFL, though, Marve's decision to retire is interesting. It's another suggestion of the forces this league has to compete with in its quest to retain players, including health, other football opportunities and other career opportunities.

Why should you adopt?
Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life! What is the difference between adopting a cat or kitten versus getting cats for sale or kittens for sale from a cat breeder? When someone is breeding kittens, they are creating new cats who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of cat or kitten and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a cat for sale from a kitten breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with cats who must find homes. So rather than buying a cat or kitten for sale from a cat breeder, we encourage people to adopt a cat or adopt a kitten at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.
