- //Comets on Fire
Removed from the cultural context of the '60s and '70s, modern audiences often miss the true spirit of the early psychedelic movement. People in today's society see the movement as being dominated by the activities of its members, such as music-making or drug use, and, in so doing, they miss the larger picture. Psychedelia was about more than trippy songs and chemical substances; it was about expanding consciousness, intense experimentation, and, ultimately, total freedom. The majority of people do not understand this concept, so they represent the movement with endeavors such as Pink Floyd laser light shows. However, a select few people, such as the members of Comets on Fire, do have a deep understanding of psychedelia, and they pay tribute to the movement with modern rock masterpieces such as their latest album, Avatar.
The members of Comets on Fire hail from Santa Cruz, California, and they have put out four full-length albums in the past five years. Thanks to these albums, the band has gained a reputation for groovy psychedelic freakouts. On Avatar, they uphold this reputation with wild sections such as those found in the middle of "Jaybird", which finds a Zeppelinesque riff, experimental noise-guitar leads, furiously pounding drums, and a hyperkinetic echoplex effects unit all competing for attention. Although moments like these are consistent with expectations, many elements of the latest album will be unfamiliar to those who know the Comets' previous work. The first of these is a softer dynamic, which is evidenced by the tender piano and subdued arrangements of songs like "Lucifer's Memory" and "Hatched Upon the Age". The second is a more refined compositional approach. Avatar displays more focused songwriting and more mature arrangements than any previous Comets on Fire album.
Comets on Fire
(Sub Pop)
US: 8 Aug 2006
UK: 7 Aug 2006
After hearing the softer moments of Avatar, some critics might say that the members of Comets on Fire are losing their edge and abandoning their roots. The band members have not dismissed psychedelia; they are simply viewing it through a different lens. They are now channeling the Grateful Dead in addition to Blue Cheer. Those still not convinced that the Comets on Fire still rock as hard as ever need only check out the scorching "Holy Teeth" to be convinced of their error. This song proves that describing Avatar by calling it Comets on Fire's tamest release is about as helpful as describing Ulysses by saying it makes for easier reading than Finnegan's Wake.
All in all, Avatar is truly an exceptional record. It contains genuinely surprising music, and, in light of Comets on Fire's history of experimentation, that is no small feat. The most ardent fans might not favor the new styles of music on Avatar, but they shouldn't deny that the band executes them with skill and style. At the very least, the band's quest to incorporate new elements into their sound jives with the old psychedelic ideal of consciousness expansion. In an article in Mojo magazine, band member Noel Harmonson said that the members of Comets on Fire "believe psychedelic rock is the most transcendental music". On Avatar, they have succeeded in transcending expectations, and that is, in and of itself, quite an accomplishment.

- Great alternative outdoor furniture
We bought a plywood table and chair set last year, and I'm sold on this stuff. While I loved my teak but was tired of having to seal it every 6 months. The resin wicker was terrible for collecting pollen and leaves. Here in south Louisiana outdoor furniture has a short lifespan. This stuff looks great and I think will last a relatively very long time. And it's quite comfortable!!

The Central Nebraska Public Power and Irrigation District will host a Raptor Recovery Nebraska educational program on March 2 at the Lake McConaughy Visitors Center.
The public is welcome to attend at no charge. However, donations to the Raptor Recovery Nebraska program will be accepted to help restore injured birds of prey to health and release them back into the wild, organizers said.
There are many types of hawks, eagles, owls and falcons in Nebraska.
The Raptor Recovery Center was founded in 1976 and has since treated more than 6,000 birds of prey with over half of rehabilitated birds released back into the wild. This 501(c)¬(3) non-profit organization is operated by volunteers and by donation. Often working with the Nebraska Game and Parks Commission, Raptor Recovery Nebraska provides birds with necessary surgeries and forms of treatment, as well as rehabilitation measures before returning them to the wild.
Birds with severe injuries that cannot be returned to the wild are often used as foster parents at the recovery center, as well as used for research and educational programs across the state.

Pass User-Selected Data to a Detail Activity in Android SDK
Passing user-selected data to a detail activity
My sample application so far is using data that's imported from XML and then stored persistently in an SQLite database, and it's now capable of being displayed in either a rich display as we see here or in a pure text display. I'm going to add some new functionality now, and in fact, in the new version of the project--which is named DetailView-- the application now has a detail view. When the user touches or clicks on an item, that results in opening another activity, and right now that activity is populated with dummy data.
I'll show you how I created that detail activity but then go on to the most important part, how to take a data object such as my tour object and prepare it so that it can be passed from one activity to another. First, let's take a look at the elements of this new functionality. In this version of the application, I've added a new layout file called tour_detail.xml. You can find it in the layout folder underneath the resources. This file uses nested Linea...

My boyfriend had I stayed here for one night as I had to visit the hospital in Guatemala City. We were picked up from the airport, taken to the hotel to drop our bags, on to the hospital and then picked up again. An excellent service. While Comfort hostel is called a hostel, it certainly has the standards of an excellent hotel.
Erika, the manager, was extremely helpful with everything we needed, even helping us to organise transport to Antigua the following day.
The hotel is clean, specious, comfortable and safe. The included breakfast was excellent too.
While it was more than we would usually pay for accommodation booked on hostelworld, we were very happy with the stay.

Microsoft Planning HDMI-Equipped 360 SKU?
Image of a 360-motherboard surfaces, true or false?
Sony's PlayStation 3 will support HDMI on its $599.99 SKU, but will not on its $499.99 SKU. Considering the two most recent rumors to surface regarding the Xbox 360 involve an internal next-gen DVD format drive (HD-DVD) and now an HDMI-port (something that the premium PS3 sku has built-in) one has to wonder if these rumors are surfacing out of wishful thinking on the part of gamers, or out of an unannounced Microsoft plan to upgrade the Xbox 360 in the forseeable future.
We've contacted Microsoft for comment on this latest rumor, if they reply with anything behind "Microsoft does not comment on rumors and speculation" -- you'll read it here.

i think i mentioned that the HD-DVD drive would only play movies. MS have said numerous times the drive wont be used for games. dvd-9s have enough space on them, ever play oblivion?
amendstothedeadPosted: Jul 12, 2006 12:00AM PST by n0gar
I agree. HDMI to me is inly good because it will confirm the presence of an HD-DVD player. If that player will be your main DVD, then it is a good thing to have. I admit that I am satisfied with component. It's not as if their is a striking difference or increase in resolution with HDMI. Most people can't tell the difference anyway, let alone knowing what either is. Also, a guy mentioned that the HD-DVD for the 360 would only be used for movies. Do you think that they would go to all of this trouble JUST to play movies and help Toshiba out? It will be used for games as well. They will need to storage IF the PS3 takes off. Then it puts the weakly powered Wii at an even greater disadvantage.
re robogodPosted: Jul 12, 2006 12:00AM PST by amendstothedead
dude you can in no way compare what you listed to the situation now. its totally different. playing a game with the 360 we have now and playing the same game with the HDMI equipped 360 wont change the gameplay experience at all. comparing asteroids and black and white TVs to this situation is like trying to compare a dvd to a floppy
:To bad MS didn't have this great idea about 1 year agoPosted: Jul 11, 2006 12:00AM PST by Demaar
I imagine they did, only the standards for HD DVD and I think even HDMI weren't finalised back then. If you ask me their year headstart was much more important than next gen media formats and a plug that offers progressive scan on a resolution they already support as well as DRM BS.

We also don't need analog control, 3D graphics, stereo sound, or even color! But they all add to the enjoyment of gaming. It's gaming that pushes the technology forward. It's the sole reason I bought an HDTV and 7.1 channel surround sound system. Other than a handful of television channels that I don't even watch, games are the only thing that take advantage of the gear I have. Personally, I'd rather not go back to playing Asteroids on a 10" black and white TV with a blown speaker.
To bad MS didn't have this great idea about 1 year agoPosted: Jul 11, 2006 12:00AM PST by Majikman
This will do nothing but irritate everone who already bought a 360. Lets face it if there was an option to have an HDMI port on launch day, lots of people would have opted for that system over one without it. If MS does go through with this I hope they hire some extra customer service people, because their phone line will be lit up with angry early adopters. I understand that things change in the consumer electronics market, and redesigns happen all the time. Home videogame consoles, however, ususally don't get a redesign (that adds a componet to the system) so closly after launch.
Early Adopters=screwedPosted: Jul 11, 2006 12:00AM PST by OminousPotato
Well, I'm an early adopter of the 360, and I have to use these stupid component cables for my HD. What if I want HDMI, Microsoft? My TV has a port for it. You don't want the people who bought your launch systems to have the best possible video clarity? Okay, then! In all seriousness though, this would suck if it ends up being true. Early adopters always end up getting screwed somehow, whether it be quiter fans, more efficient processors, or whatever else they put into a machine to make it cooler and quieter. If this is true, I'm gonna complain straight to the 1-800-4-MY-XBOX number. At least give us a choice, Microsoft...
not goodPosted: Jul 11, 2006 12:00AM PST by amendstothedead
its not needed. neither the HD-DVD drive or the HDMI port. microsoft isnt using the drive for games, so why buy it? the HDMI port isnt wanted either. so it might be bigger in a very minute sense but it would in now way be better than what we have now.
GoodPosted: Jul 11, 2006 12:00AM PST by n0gar
If ture(I bleive that it is), then that means that the HD-DVD drive will be built in future versions of the 360. It also makes sense because Toshiba would want a mass market item like the 360 to help promote HD-DVD. It is also good that Microsoft is trying to do it early(hoepfully before the PS3 launches) instead of later. If they wait until after the PS3 launches, they will look like followers and desparate. So now I will have to hold off on that 360 purchase until this HD-DVD model comes out. It should not take long to convert the 360 to an HD-DVD with HDMI.
I wouldn't count on itPosted: Jul 11, 2006 12:00AM PST by Wickerman1972
We've been hearing rumors like this regarding the 360 about every week and none of them have been becoming reality. I'm guessing this one is bogus as well. MS has already committed themselves to a non-HDMI, non-HD-DVD system and that is just the way it is. Changing the design this late in the game would confuse consumers, developers, and would piss off early adopters. I don't doubt that they'd like to include these things but they probably feel that they can't. This is the price that must be payed for launching a year ahead of the competition. It seems to me that the one thing they could do without causing too much of a problem is to axe the core package but I wouldn't bet money on them even doing that. A new Xbox 360 with HDMI and HD-DVD right out of the box would be nice but doing it would cause MS more headaches than anything else. For one thing because there are 360s without HD-DVD developers wouldn't be able to make games in that format because of the compatibility issues. This ain't like the PC biz, once you commit yourself to a design you have to stick with it for better or worse.

honestly, who really cares. i dont think that many people do. the games look fine already with a decent (read: moderately expensive) tv without using HDMI. its the same deal with Blu-Ray and HD-DVD and movies. Do you really have that much of a better experience by watching a movie in one of those "high-def" formats?

HDMI...Posted: Jul 10, 2006 12:00AM PST by spaa0501
will be great as long as MS can sell it for about $200 to keep their system the same as Sony's PS3 and of course you can decide whether or not HDMI is for you istead of forcing it into someone's house as Sony is doing but only if you buy the Premium System.

business as usualPosted: Jul 10, 2006 12:00AM PST by aztec0075
I would not be surprised if microsoft releases a upgraded 360. Will i be happy? No! The only thing that bothers me is for all the peoplr who have already purchased the console. I guess you are telling them if they want the latest and greatest you will have to pay extra. With the ps3 on the horizon and tecnically superior to the 360 there is no way microsoft is going to let sony have any advantage over their console. I know everyone has been complaining about the price of the ps3 but i guarantee on day one many people that want one wont be able to purchase it!
when will it end?Posted: Jul 10, 2006 12:00AM PST by rachelmoore55
if this is true how many more updated skus are they planning? when will the specs be complete, doesnt this tick current 360 owners off? makes me wonder how long i should wait. :P
Don't think So?Posted: Jul 10, 2006 12:00AM PST by Braynbasher
I don't think they will do this but I do think with the HD-DVD add on that they will decide to put the HDMI on that.

This doesnt make sense to me.You already split the market into haves and have nots as far as the hard drive goes,and now your gonna have the people who have an hdmi equipped 360 and people who dont have one.The only way this could make sense is if they(Starting this holiday) released just one 360 sku that comes with the hdmi built in and a hd for $400 (Or less).
this would be pretty Nintendo-ishPosted: Jul 10, 2006 12:00AM PST by coldcrush
If they did this, then they'd be ripping off Nintendo - in an unflattering way. We had three different GBA iterations, and at least two GB interations, and now a second DS out. This would be a bad move because the hardware would actually be different - and MS would be making the same mistake that Sony is making with the PS3. There would be some PO'd people out there - at least those who have an HDMI input or are planning on getting a TV with HDMI, who already have a 360 (like myself).
Microsoft planning RSX-Equipped SKU?Posted: Jul 10, 2006 12:00AM PST by p4rtyB0y
maybe they'll finally upgrade the graphic card to something non-ATI (=which doesnt suck)... and maybe if the motion sensing pads end up being a success you will see them offering that for the 360 too... let's hope the PS3 will not be released in a beta-360-type version.
Its a matter of necessityPosted: Jul 10, 2006 12:00AM PST by dodge_spirit
So if MS wants to release and external HD-DVD they need to find a way with those units for complete digital connections ... so whether the external device will have an HDMI port on it or whatever they decide but to make sure HDDVD plays movies this is the copyright protections making this happen MS will likely offer an HDMI system and then perhaps a cable that offers HDMI connections for existing units I mean MS could release a new SKU that offered internal HDVDD and HDMI for a premium
Introducing Xbox360 Premium-er?Posted: Jul 10, 2006 12:00AM PST by xbox_fanboy
hdmi equipped, built-in HD-DVD, upgraded hard drive to compete with ps3's top tier model? it wouldn't surprise me.
Why?Posted: Jul 10, 2006 12:00AM PST by Firf
Why would Microsoft go the route of producing both the USB and internal HD DVD Drive. Doesn't make a lot of sense, particularly because they expect the HD Drive to only serve as a DVD player for video and not to be used for games... at least that is what they claim so far. As for the HDMI, it would certainly aggrevate current owners as an 'add-on' for true HDMI would be unlikely and difficult to create, at best, if possible at all. Hmmm... maybe I'll be proven wrong?
Saw this pic on a picture board I frequent last night...Posted: Jul 10, 2006 12:00AM PST by Demaar
The first thing that popped into my mind was a 360 with this motherboard and built in HD DVD replacing the premium pack at the 400 dollar mark. MS could essentially drop the core pack, re-price the "premium" pack to 300 dollars and then release this at the 400 dollar mark. By the end of the year the 360s should be on to the cheaper manufacturing process for the chips, yeah? This would let them essentially have a price drop thanks to the cheaper production costs while still having a unit at the 400 dollar mark to make money. Also, during the discussion on the board yesterday many people raised the point that while the 360 could still have this stuff built in, it wouldn't necessarily use it for games. I seriously doubt they'd be so foolish as to segment their market further than they already have (some with Hard drives/some without, some with HD DVD/some without, etc).
That would suck.Posted: Jul 10, 2006 12:00AM PST by marsx69
If M$ makes a new version of the 360 alot of people would be pissed. Creating another sku with HD-DVD and/or HDMI would kill most of the headway that M$ has made in the console market. If they do anything they should drop the XBL fee.
How much would...Posted: Jul 10, 2006 12:00AM PST by BodySuitMan
that thing have to cost? If it is true, what about all the people who got shafted with an original 360? Would an external drive even be worth it?
Getting ScrewedPosted: Jul 10, 2006 12:00AM PST by cnerd
If Microsoft is really making all this changes to his console, wouldn't it be like screwing all the people that bought it first? You know, the ones that gave them the lead over Sony? Besides,this exciment with HDMI is getting out of hand. Peoople gotta wonder themsleves, is there really such a difference between 720p and 1080p? And I mean a difference such as normal TV and 720p or black-and- white to color. I don't think there's such a difference.

Economic Development
New Jersey would like to increase the amount of money that comes into the state in order to provide employment opportunities and an increased quality of life for its residents. Much of the state's economic development and growth is supported by public infrastructure.
The state can play an important role in economic development by directing economic activities into places where infrastructure already exists, thereby minimizing the public subsidy necessary to support these activities and reducing the cost to businesses to build facilities, transport goods, connect with suppliers, customers and partners, and access employees.
National Infrastructure Week is May 16 thru 23, and offers a good reminder of the importance of investing in infrastructure: It benefits the community, and the economy, and the costs of not investing can be far higher.
The Build it Green (BIG) Competition will provide technical assistance and engineering support services to selected New Jersey cities and utilities to design innovative, financeable projects that reduce combined sewer outflows (CSOs) while also making neighborhoods and downtowns better places to live, work and invest.

Can You Keep a Secret? (original 2003; edition 2005)
by Sophie Kinsella
Work details
Can You Keep A Secret? by Sophie Kinsella (2003)
No current Talk conversations about this book.
Leí este libro para pasar el rato, sin mayores pretensiones, ya que realmente nunca espero demasiado de los chick-lit, pero me lleve una enorme sorpresa cuando no podía parar de reír con cada pagina que pasaba.
No es una revelación de la literatura y contiene algunos clichés, pero es muy muy muy divertida y fácil de leer.
Originally posted here
This was the right book at the right time for me as lately I have been feeling like I am descending into a bit of a reading slump. The horror. Can You Keep a Secret? was surprisingly funny and had me chortling almost all the way through. The main character Emma is very relatable and the extremely embarrassing situations she goes through at work and home made me feel better about myself and my own embarrassing experiences. Emma takes the award for living through the most cringe worthy situations imaginable - but that is what made this book comedy gold.
It is foremost a contemporary romance and it is a typical example of chick-lit. The story is fast paced and silly - it is definitely a book to pick up when a quick and easy reading fix is in need. It certainly would not pass the Bechdel test but I didn't care because I liked the story for what it was. My only criticism of the book would be that it does reinforce unhealthy ideas of body image as Emma comments on her weight and dress size at times. It was as ridiculous as saying that she is a size 4 but she is actually a size 8... as if a size 8 was something to be shameful of. Emma also shames a character that she describes as 300 pounds which annoyed me but it was such a minor thing I don't feel like it hampered my enjoyment overall.
Overall Can You Keep a Secret? is a feel-good, humorous and fast read which is a great antidote to the dreaded reading slump.
Still one of the best chick lit books out there. I never forget how much I laughed when reading about the plane.
Can you keep a secret? What I love about Sophie's main characters is that they are not super women, they aren't sucessfull in their jobs, they are pretty but not stunning beautiful, they are more funny than sexy... This time Emma Corrigan is the one who is going to share some secrets, with a not so stranger guy. A new character to love, to laugh with and share some secrets...
Emma Corrigan, the narrator, is very blunt when it comes to sharing her thoughts with the reader, which makes the book hilarious. However, to her friends, colleagues, and family, she is oftentimes not truthful, therefore she has lots of secrets. She works for Panther Cola, and on the flight back from a (miserably failed) business trip, the plane experiences heavy turbluence. Emma is so scared that the plane will crash that she blabs all of her secrets to the American stranger sitting next to her. I found this a little unbelievable, but it was cute, nevertheless. The reader may connect with some of her secrets, such as Emma lying about her weight to her boyfriend. When the plane lands safely, she bids him farewell, thinking she will never see him again. At home, she has to worry about her job, her family, her boyfriend, and her flatmates.
Instinct (and the book jacket description) tells the reader that Emma will definitely see this stranger again, and it turns out he is Jack Harper, the CEO of Panther Cola. Even though Emma has the "perfect boyfriend," she cannot help but fall in love with Jack even though this guy knows all of her secrets. Jack is a private man who is very taciturn, so the relationship is, for the most part, one-sided. It is still cute to see them together through their ups and downs in the book, and once again, I must say Emma's thoughts are absolutely hilarious. She is not 100% honest, so when she says one thing to a person, she lets the reader know what she really is thinking.
A very cute book, one a reader cannot help falling in love with, but the ending is a bit abrupt and could have been written better. Everything is going along just fine, but something happens. Then in a couple of pages, it is suddenly resolved.
Emma (± 21) werkt in Londen als marketing-assistente bij Panther NV, wat haar familie te min vindt, zodat ze haar werk aandikt. Ook tegen haar nieuwe vriend, de knappe maar saaie Connor, maakt ze dingen mooier. Als tijdens een zakenreisje haar vliegtuig in turbulentie terechtkomt, raakt ze in paniek en biecht haar onbekende buurman haar geheimen op. Bij aankomst is ze zo in de war dat ze Connors voorstel om samen te wonen accepteert. Haar biechtvader blijkt echter Jack, haar hoogste baas te zijn die alles heeft onthouden wat ze zei en belangstelling voor haar heeft. [...]. Van de Engelse financieel journaliste verschenen enkele bestsellers. Ook deze luchtige roman, die vooral werkende jonge vrouwen van ± 18 tot 32 zal aanspreken, leest lekker weg. Een herkenbaar verhaal, waarin heel veel in hoog tempo gebeurt, met vaak komische misverstanden, romantiek en veel Engelse humor.

- Dietary Supplement
Vitamin D functions as a hormone, a chemical messenger with widespread effects in the human body. It is important for optimal bone, cardiovascular, neuromuscular, and immune health. Adequate calcium and vitamin D throughout life, as part of a well-balanced diet, may reduce the risk of osteoporosis. Supplementation with vitamin D may be necessary to meet daily needs, since obtaining sufficient vitamin D from natural food sources and sun exposure alone can be difficult. Research shows that vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) is approximately 87% more potent than vitamin D2 for raising and maintaining vitamin D blood levels.
Suggested Use
Not to exceed one capsule per week unless directed by healthcare professional.

|Supplement Facts
|Serving Size: 1 Capsule
|Amount Per Serving
|%Daily Value
|Vitamin D3 (as cholecalciferol)
I would love to be able to talk a bit of this vitamin. Of course it is not a vitamin itself, And yes the more potent hormone that your body produces. The recommended daily dose for the disease industry (pharmaceutical industry) is 400 IU. Definitely this disease Industry not want your well being. Let's think: If you stay under the sunlight just 15 minutes you will be able to produce 10,000 IU of this hormone. Imagine if one day all you stay in the sun without sunscreen. How many thousand IU you do not produce? And even so you never had any problem. So it is clear that the Industry of the Disease, do not want to be cured you . but many diseases for you to buy more drugs to treat diseases caused by lack of "vitamin" D. About this stuff: This hormone will make a real spring cleaning in your immune system. How many people spend hundreds of thousands of dollars in treatment for many autoimmune diseases, (all that the Industrial Disease want) while healing is in this little bottle! Read and study on the doctor's protocol Cicero Galli Coimbra, and see that this doctor, with a great mission on this earth is healing, or rather "silencing" outbreaks of these diseases, only with high doses of vitamin d3. Diseases that were once a challenge for survival to their carriers. Now the cure is around the corner! Do not give more money to this industry evil disease. Healing is before their eyes. For people who haven´t autoimmune diseases, which are very low levels of vitamin D, I recommend taking only one tablet of this supplement per week for 8 weeks.

- Protocol
- Diagnostic
This is the protocol for a review and there is no abstract. The objectives are as follows:
To determine the diagnostic accuracy of serological tests for diagnosing leptospirosis in patients presenting with compatible clinical symptoms, for example fever or muscle pain, or both.
a) To determine the diagnostic accuracy of laboratory tests (ie, ELISA, dipstick, agglutination test) for diagnosing human leptospirosis in acute patients (0 to 10 days post-onset) and convalescent patients (> 10 days post-onset).
b) To determine the best diagnostic laboratory test for diagnosing human leptospirosis in incidence-related subgroups (high incidence versus low incidence).

A Trace in the Sand
by Ruth Malan
Architects Architecting Architecture
July 2016
What's This Then? A Trace? In the Sand?
This is a journal -- where I write traces or musing on topics I relate to architects architecting architecture. I have been writing this Trace for more than 10 years -- if you're just discovering my work, it's not because I am new to this!
To get an idea of what this Trace is like, here are some traces from February:
Context for Context
Remember the elephant in the room slide (76), in my Architect's Clue Bucket slide deck?
And the subsequent slides?
In slide 77, I make the point that right system built right isn't about getting "right system" right, and "built right" right, independently. And in slide 79, I riff on Lynn Langit's synopsis of Michael Feather's "Symbiosis" post (which is well worth (re-)reading), where she tweeted:
"Learning how to ask the question 'What does your code need?'"
I added:
These are not new questions for us, but simply a catchy way to sum up an important dimension of our approach to (ecosystem) context and strategy, and (system-in-context) design and requirements, and system architecture (and more granular, more narrowly scoped design of elements of the architecture, often in the medium of code) [see slide 75].
This is just to say... I like to think that these, like my other slides, are interesting for the understanding that is packed into them -- like vine-ripened fruit, yielding much to reflection.
Those several slides (73 to 80), are there to convene a discussion, and stimulate thinking, about design. When our different communities talk about design, they tend to do so from their frame of reference. User experience: business capabilities or features, customer journey and user stories, etc.. System architecture: looking inside the system, at elements and interface design, assigning responsibilities and designing element boundaries and inter-element relationships and interactions; design of mechanisms (elements and interactions to yield some system capability). Code: design of algorithms, functions, ... unit tests, ... But it is all design. And all design impacts and interacts with other (forms and scopes of) design. Whichever decisions are made and cast, shape (enable and constrain) subsequent decisions.
This is important to realize, because we think we can design in code incrementally, conducting value experiments through continuous delivery of working software -- without penalty. That is, without there being inherent tradeoffs. But any decisions we lay down, in whatever format, but including code, starts to shape. And then shapes more. And yes, yes, we can strive to lower the reversability cost -- do smaller things that are easier to roll back, for example. But we need to get it in our mindset that what is, shapes. For example, users who embrace (eagerly or with dragging heels in a "we'll see" mode) an increment of function, start to lay down tracks of habit and entanglement with other systems. We recognize the inertial forces of entanglement within our system, but our systems become entangled in their containing systems, too. Well, I'm not suggesting don't do that (continuous development/integration/deployment). Not at all. I am suggesting that we revisit all the ways we make design decisions, and not so glibly sweep visual models or sketch prototypes, and pretendotypes, and so forth off the table. But also don't turn code development into a new kind of waterfall (one-way flow) we're just not seeing as such. I'm also not suggesting all churn and back-tracking! It is helpful, though, to think of design as non-linear and highly interactive -- across the boundaries or scopes of design. Across traditional role cleavages and specializations. Not in a mad and maddening way. But just enough. We need to embrace the power of decisions and the constraints they place -- we can't enable, if we don't constrain. It's physics. ;-) But we need to do that, with our "heads up" to what we're doing, when we do that.
Oh, pfft, yeah. We don't have a crystal ball. We don't even have very good rear view mirrors!
But we're fooling ourselves if we think that building systems incrementally protects us automagically from missed and mis- direction. We can be more intentional about discovering and shaping value than that. So I'm going to address addressing (yes, intentional duplication) those questions in reverse order:
We (Dana Bredemeyer and myself) have been teaching software architecture workshops for 20 years (I have just this moment realized it was 20 years ago this summer that we prototyped our first architecture workshop in HP! OMGoodness! That's... devastating... but also awesome!), and much has its roots in that early work. Our visual architecting poster has columns for each of those questions. I only say that, because while I mention and generously point to other people's work, I don't want you to go assuming I wasn't there first. ;)
Elaborating a little to illuminate the scope of these questions (in this discussion):
In other words, I'll be focusing on Context for a while, catching you up just a little to what we have learned over more than 20 years! ;)
And if you're tempted to discount that experience with some ageist stereotyping... be my guest. You can take a short-cut to wisdom by learning from those of us who have wrestled hard with this space of concern and applied learning, or you can learn on the hazardously cutting edge of the lessons that complex systems will teach you. They don't call it the bleeding edge blindly. Oh, and if you want to see my code, you're asking for the wrong thing from me. My code will teach you very little, or nothing you don't know (assuming you have and do write a lot of code). What you need from me, is what (Dana Bredemeyer and) I have uniquely researched and applied and learned about strategy (business and technical) and leadership (in usual people sense, but also in the market/ecosystem sense) and system design and architecture. So you know. ;)
Just think of architecture as system design for complex systems -- starting with the complex of interacting complex systems within which a complex system is (or will be) embedded. So it makes sense that we could get more clued in? And that the code one writes at uni and as an entry-level programmer isn't exactly covering that base? Sure, we learn a lot on the job about complex systems and the design thereof, as we progress through our careers. We try things out, we learn through the empirical experiments of doing across time. But it is a haphazard and drawn out way to learn something vital to system integrity and business sustainability, and hence the lives and livelihoods of our team members, others in our business, and our users, and their businesses, and others they impact. And. Etc.
South Africa has exported some great innovations to the US: Elon Musk, Trevor Noah, and Ruth Malan. ;) Don't misunderestimate me (and George Bush Jr.; oh well... never said I was perfect). :)
Anyway, I'm going to explore context, but I want to reiterate and emphasize and reinforce (get what I'm doing?) the message that you must do as I say, not what I'm doing. ;) That is, I will talk about context, but when we are designing systems, we don't hole up on context, understand that real good, come up with a perfect strategy, then do system capability design by considering the system in its (system-of-system) context and get that all done and dusted. Etc. I have iterated my understanding across all these spaces, and you have too. So what we're doing here is simply organizing what we have learned into a context bucket. And later we can visit the system(-in-context) and capabilities design bucket. And the system architecture bucket. When we're designing systems, we do so messily, non-linearly, iteratively and incrementally -- we evolve the system and our understanding of what we want to shape it into, and how best to shape it internally. Sure, some things, we will be more intentional and rigorous about, proceeding in a more systematic way. Others, we will be more ad hoc about. We'll use judgment. And sometimes not. We're human. And complex novel problems are, well, complex and novel. So while our map of context, system-in-context and system, is not a prescription of a waterfall progression, it is a map of "places to put things" in terms of organizing our thinking and products thereof. And it is a reminder, that serves to prompt us to backfill, if we leave important things out. Etc. Got the idea? Good. I'm happy for you. Um. Could you explain it to me? ;)

It breaks my heart to know that people can be cruel to animals, but, to have a video go viral of two teenagers tossing a dog over the bridge is disgusting. It's amazing that the dog survived and that justice will be served. The two teenage boys are 16 and 18 years old. The 16-year-old was placed on house arrest and the 18-year-old was booked in jail. If you thought the Michael Vick dog case was bad, wait until you see this.

Alec Baldwin's weird attention seeking dubiously employed fake Spanish wife posted a photo of herself in lingerie with a baby inside her. I can't tell if I'm supposed to masturbate or salute her for letting an angry old man squirt inside her.

Alec Baldwin's pretend Spanish daughter wifeis kooky. So much so she posts photos of herself doing yoga around the house. She's not aloof enough not to know exactly what we're all thinking. Your bikini is mismatched. Let me fix it for you. Suchwould make her stupid. I refuse to believe Baldwin is porking a retard. More than likely she's a massive cock tease.

The idea of hooking up with a yoga instructor half your age seems like a great idea until you come to in a pumpkin patch with an a toddler and a frisky bitch insisting you yoga pose her with a banana in her mouth.

About Imprivata
Imprivata OneSign Secure Walk-Away Integrates 3D Camera Technology, Video Tracking and Facial Recognition Software to Support HIPAA Compliance and Improve Workflow Efficiency
VMworld® (booth #316)—San Francisco, August 25, 2014—Imprivata® (NYSE: IMPR), a leading provider of authentication, access management and secure communications solutions for the healthcare industry, today introduced several technology enhancements to Imprivata OneSign Secure Walk-Away®, the company's biometric verification solution that safeguards against unauthorized access to patient records at unattended clinical workstations. Imprivata OneSign Secure Walk-Away now includes advanced 3D camera technology, video tracking and facial recognition software to deliver an active presence detection solution that protects patient information, supports HIPAA compliance and improves clinical workflow efficiency. Imprivata will demo Imprivata OneSign Secure Walk-Away in booth #316 at the VMworld® 2014 conference.
"We've made significant enhancements to Imprivata OneSign Secure Walk-Away to deliver a leading-edge, patented presence detection solution that helps customers solve important challenges. Unlike most motion sensor cameras that cover a two-dimensional field, we employ 3D technology to measure depth as well, which is more effective in a busy healthcare setting where multiple providers may be walking in front of a workstation," said David Ting, founder and CTO of Imprivata. "Imprivata OneSign Secure Walk-Away helps healthcare organizations mitigate the potential exposure of protected health information (PHI) on unattended clinical workstations from which providers have not properly logged out, which is essential to ensuring the integrity and privacy of patient data."
The use of shared workstations in hallways, patient rooms and other common areas of the hospital introduce the risk of exposing PHI to unauthorized access. Imprivata OneSign Secure Walk-Away addresses this by automating the process of logging providers out of workstations when they leave and re-authenticating them when they return. By minimizing the need to manually log in and out of systems and applications, providers can remain focused on patient care as they move throughout the hospital while PHI remains protected from unauthorized access.
Imprivata OneSign Secure Walk-Away also reduces the possibility of providers entering information when they are unknowingly logged into a system under the wrong credentials, which is a risk associated with shared workstations in a busy healthcare setting. The solution only allows the previously authenticated user to log back into their session, and if other providers need to use the workstations, they are required to provide their own authentication credentials.
"Our care providers are highly mobile, moving constantly throughout the hospital and accessing information from patient rooms, labs, shared workstations and other locations. They don't want to have to worry about logging out of workstations, especially if they are called away in an emergency situation. However we need to be vigilant in preventing PHI from exposure on unattended computers," said Gary Diemert, information technology supervisor at Mason General Hospital (Shelton, Wash.). "Imprivata OneSign Secure Walk-Away is a highly reliable, seamless solution for addressing these challenges without disrupting clinical workflows. Our providers can remain focused on patient care with the assurance that PHI is not left exposed, and we see tremendous value in deploying Imprivata OneSign Secure Walk-Away throughout the hospital."
About Imprivata
Imprivata is a leading provider of authentication and access management solutions for the healthcare industry. Imprivata's single sign-on, authentication management and secure communications solutions enable fast, secure and more efficient access to healthcare information technology systems to address multiple security challenges and improve provider productivity for better focus on patient care.
