I've noticed that companies often gravitate toward focusing on hard technology and product challenges (the "can we do it?" aspect) at the expense of deeply and truly understanding the potential market risk or opportunity (the "should we do it?" aspect) first. In this post I'll explain why corporate R&D and entrepreneurs need to focus a lot more on the "should we do it?" in addition to the "can we do it?".

Brainstorming is notorious for being unstructured and often unactionable. People get in a room with some Post-its and whiteboards and expect the great ideas to happen. The problem is, even if there are great ideas in the room, there is often no clear-cut way to decide on what ideas to take action on. About a year ago, I and my colleague Michael (founding partner at AJ&Smart) were sitting in a masterclass run by the fantastic Adrian Howard on the subject of feature prioritization in agile development. More specifically, we were asking how we could decide which feature comes next and when it should be released.

There are as many different definitions for the word "touchpoint" in customer experience design and marketing as there are flavors on the average restaurant menu. Why? Because these disciplines have been evolving rapidly over the last decades and terminology has become fluid rather than static.

Perhaps the biggest buzzword in customer relationship management is "engagement". Engagement is a funny thing, in that it is not measured in likes, clicks, or even purchases. It's a measure of how much a customer feels that they are in a relationship with a product, business or brand. It focuses on harmony and how your business, product or brand becomes part of a customer's life. One of the best tools for examining engagement is the customer journey map.As the Cherokee tribe used to say

Running Time: 89
Company: Hollywood Video
Cast: Felix Vicious, Sunshine (I), Buffy Sinclair, Ceasar Cruz, Dillion (I), Ann Marie Rios, Melody (I), Bobby Swade, Cynara Fox, John Carlos
Critical Rating: AAA 1/2
Genre: All-Sex
Cynara Fox on the box will draw 'em in; couples.
Six very pretty girls appear in couples oriented scenes that generate some strokeable moments but never really turn scorching.
Buffy Sinclair is a super hottie but her opening scene with two guys doesn't have the energy even though the reverse cowgirl is definitely something to write home about. Then Persian princess Melody performs an inviting striptease before a routine b/g. Felix Vicious is impossibly cute taking it missionary in the next scene, but maybe the hottest pairing is Ann Marie and Cynara Fox. These smoking brunettes come out wearing sexy lingerie before Ann Marie rides Fox's dildo.

He has paid estimated tax ...but not actually competed the filing. Since we have always filed income tax jointly (30 year marriage) I wonder if there is a problem for not filing and should I be filing independently?
He has been un-able to provide me with ANY good reason for not filing...other than it has gotten away from him (or at least that is all he is revealing to me)
Tax Lawyer
Your husband is not being honest with you. IRS does not give a person a two-year extension of time to file a tax return. Further, do you have evidence that your husband has actually paid his estimated tax? Since he is telling you that the filing of the returns has "gotten away from him," he may NOT have paid the estimated tax and/or his financial records are so bad that he cannot complete the returns himself or give the information to an accountant to complete the returns for him. Your fact pattern doesn't state whether you earned income during the two years in question. If you have earned income, I recommend that you file married filing separately tax returns for the two years, even though your income may be so little that you are not required to file. This will give you some protection if, down the road, the IRS files a substitute for return for each of the unfiled years or if your husband finally cooperates in filing the joint returns but there are problems with those returns. The important thing to remember is that you can file married filing separately and later amend by filing jointly but, once you file a joint return, you can never amend to married filing separately.

We set out to experience Telluride's via ferrata (iron way) called the Krogerata. The Krogerata is named after Chuck Kroger, the local legend who started its construction in 2006.
The Krogerata traverses a major wall called the Pipeline Wall up near Bridal Veil Falls. The Krogerata can be done from west to east or east to west. We chose to start from east to west because the Marshall Creek on the west side was sketchy looking to ford and we could drive to the east side's "trailhead"
Much of the first part from the east is easy but quite exposed trail walking on the ledge
After a few minutes we encountered the first cabled section. There were many very short cabled sections before things got really interesting
Passing a small waterfall and, shortly thereafter, another party that was in front of us
Route finding was very straight forward
Bridal Veil Falls and the road up to the falls can be seen in the background
After a great deal of cruising along the ledge we came to the "main event". Serious exposure and mandatory cable grabbing.
The metal ladder rungs in the wall were all we had to hold onto and stand on
The exposure was jaw dropping with hundreds of feet below us
Bill loving the exposure
Not a great shot but it somewhat shows the intense exposure
Later, another pretty exposed section required a foot traverse on a small ledge
That traverse led out to a fantastic point
And a tricky tree navigation maneuver. Allison and I squeezed between the rock and the tree while Bill went around. On the return, I went around. Much easier.
Allison stands on an exposed point with a great view of Telluride below
A short and steep section that overhung for the feet
Once we got near the west end, we turned back to reverse the entire Krogerata for twice as much fun
Bill cruises a ledge while Allison navigates the short, overhung section
The short foot traverse section
Hamming it up
Great views and nice hiking back towards the east end
Allison in a picturesque setting
There are a number of fun conglomerate sport routes below the via ferrata. Use caution.
A view of the ledge and via ferrata from a switchback above on the Bridal Veil Road. The Krogerata takes the obvious ledge system in the middle of the photo
In the afternoon we hiked up to Blue Lake. I leared a thing or two about equine liability along the way. Sean probably could have told me this, though
An old tree makes for a fine power line pole
We were dreaming of a nice route up that buttress
The hike took us up past Bridal Veil Falls. This is where the 2011 Hardrock run may go in a detour around newly-acquired private land up Bear Creek. Oscar's Pass is the snowy pass near the left edge of this photo
A small winch cabin near Blue Lake
Blue Lake, as it turns out, is pretty amazing
The lake was still a bit frozen but that added to the beautiful scene
On the return looking down at the lodge above Bridal Veil Falls
And now looking up at it. Very impressive

MCALLEN (August 27, 2014) An arrest warrant has been issued for a Weslaco man who's wanted in the kidnapping of his former employer's wife.
The 30-year-old man is accused of kidnapping the 58-year-old woman from her home Monday south of Donna.
The woman, who received minor injuries, was able to escape from the man and a second unknown kidnapper later in the day.
She waved down a passing vehicle with duct tape still on her face, police said.
Hidalgo County Sheriff's deputies along with the Department of Public Safety and other local agencies searched the home and surrounding area but were unable to locate the suspects.

When n identical randomly located nodes, each capable of transmitting at W bits per second and using a fixed range, form a wireless network, the throughput λ(n) obtainable by each node for a randomly chosen destination is Θ(W/√(nlogn)) bits per second under a noninterference protocol. If the nodes are optimally placed in a disk of unit area, traffic patterns are optimally assigned, and each transmission's range is optimally chosen, the bit-distance product that can be transported by the network per second is Θ(W√An) bit-meters per second. Thus even under optimal circumstances, the throughput is only Θ(W/√n) bits per second for each node for a destination nonvanishingly far away. Similar results also hold under an alternate physical model where a required signal-to-interference ratio is specified for successful receptions. Fundamentally, it is the need for every node all over the domain to share whatever portion of the channel it is utilizing with nodes in its local neighborhood that is the reason for the constriction in capacity. Splitting the channel into several subchannels does not change any of the results. Some implications may be worth considering by designers. Since the throughput furnished to each user diminishes to zero as the number of users is increased, perhaps networks connecting smaller numbers of users, or featuring connections mostly with nearby neighbors, may be more likely to be find acceptance

Ducks give fans a glimpse of QBs in spring game
EUGENE, Ore. (AP) Oregon quarterback Dakota Prukop had two main goals this spring in Eugene. The graduate transfer from Montana State wanted to build relationships and control the offense.
After the spring game Saturday, Prukop said he'd accomplished both.
Prukop made his first Autzen Stadium appearance as a Duck, giving fans a glimpse of how the quarterback competition is shaping up now that fellow graduate transfer Vernon Adams has moved on. Prukop started for the Mighty Oregon side, while redshirt freshman Travis Jonsen started for the Webfoots.

Hello everyone, was wondering if anyone might be able to help out on this problem I'm having, may help others too perhaps.
What I'm trying to do is to make the URL that Download Monitor outputs quite unique. I want the file url to contain the category name that I have added the relevant download into so say for example:
site.com/files/CATEGORY NAME/FILE.mp3
By this logic I will be using the Filename at the end of the address. The reason for this is that I have some files which have exactly the same filename and it's causing a conflict. I want to add the category name to make the download address unique, but I don't want to use the download ID as i need to retain the file extension at the end.
Using {category} in the admin panel makes the address look right but cannot find the file. Is there something I'm missing here, I've tried everything to get iot to work including modififying my .htaccess file every which way.
Other than that great plugin, only suggestion would be to make managing downloads easier, by allowing the admin to browse through the categories when editing files for example.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Lemuel Haynes
Lemuel Haynes (1753 – 1833) was an influential African-American religious leader who argued against slavery.
Early life and education[edit]
Little is known of his early life. He was born in West Hartford, Connecticut, to a reportedly Caucasian mother of some status and a man named Haynes, who was said to be "of some form of African extraction". According to the African American National Biography, his birth date is July 18, 1753 and he died the September 28, 1833.
At the age of five months, Lemuel Haynes was given over to indentured servitude in Granville, Massachusetts. Although serving as an agricultural worker, part of the agreement required educating him. Through accompanying his masters to church, he became exposed to Calvinistic thought. At about twenty years of age, he saw the Aurora Borealis, and, fearing the approach of the Day of Judgment as a result, he soon accepted Christianity.
Military service[edit]
Freed in 1774 when his indenture expired, Haynes joined the minutemen of Granville. In 1775, he marched with his militia company to Roxbury, Massachusetts, following the news of the Battles of Lexington and Concord. In 1776, he accompanied them in the garrisoning of the recently captured Fort Ticonderoga, until contracting Typhus and had to return home.[1] After returning home, he tended to his previous labors in Granville after the northern campaign of the American War of Independence. Lemuel joined the Granville minutemen and fought with the patriot forces in 1776, when he caught typhus and had to return home.[2]
After the American Revolution, Haynes began to write extensively, criticizing the slave trade and slavery. He also began to prepare sermons for family prayers and write theologically about life. The Scripture, abolitionism, and republicanism impacted his published writings. Haynes argued that slavery denied black people their natural rights to "Life, Liberty and the pursuit of happiness". Paralleling the recent American experience with oppression to the slave experience, Haynes wrote: "Liberty is equally as precious to a black man, as it is to a white one, and bondage as equally as intolerable to the one as it is to the other".
By the 1780s, Haynes became a leading Calvinist minister in Vermont. His contemporary white republican and abolitionist thinkers saw slavery as a liability to the new country, but most argued for eventual slave expatriation to Africa. The American Colonization Society (founded in 1817) was one such group. Included among its supporters were people such as James Madison, James Monroe, Henry Clay and Daniel Webster. In contrast, Haynes continued to passionately argue along Calvinist lines that God's providential plan would defeat slavery and lead to the harmonious integration of the races as equals.
As the first black person in America to serve as pastor of a white congregation, Haynes ministered first to Hemlock Church (now 1st Congregational Church) of Torrington, Connecticut in 1785 and then Rutland's West Parish for thirty years starting in 1793. Middlebury College granted Haynes an honorary master of arts in 1804, the first advanced degree ever bestowed upon an African American.[3][4]
Historian John Saillant (2003, p. 3) writes that Haynes's "faith and social views are better documented than those of any African American born before the luminaries of the mid-nineteenth century."
Lemuel Haynes House, his home for the last 11 years of his life in South Granville, New York, when he was pastor of South Granville Congregational Church was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1975. Originally sitting on a parcel of the PAR Farm, it was purchased from Charles Halderman in 2009 by Bo Young and William Foote, formerly of Brooklyn.

Testicular Cancer (cont.)
Just like that, I had become part of a trend: I had likely been stricken with a form of cancer that has, over the past three decades, increased in frequency an astonishing 60% (according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention), striking mostly young men like me. The doctor probably told me that it was a very curable cancer, but I was in such a state of shock, I could barely understand what he was saying.
That next Monday -- just after moving into our new house -- I went in for surgery. I was home that afternoon, with a huge bandage on my crotch and a gigantic ice pack in my pants. The procedure, called an orchiectomy, involves removing the testicle through an incision in the groin. A week later the biopsy report came back: "Nonseminomatous mixed germ-cell tumor primarily consisting of embryonal carcinoma."
In other words: Cancer.
Luckily, the report said the cancer hadn't spread to my lymph nodes or bloodstream. Even so, I was faced with a tough decision. I could watch and wait to see if the cancer was truly cured. Or I could undergo what's called a retroperitoneal lymph node dissection, or RPLND. In short, a surgeon opens you up from below the navel to the middle of your chest, lifts your internal organs out of the way, and removes all the lymph nodes that could be cancerous if the tumor has spread.
The prospect terrified me. But so did the idea of doing nothing.
Surfing for Survival
I got on the Internet, looking for help and information. I found plenty of it, along with moral support. I also found out about Indiana University, known for its expertise in treating testicular cancer. I made an appointment, and a week later my wife and I hit the road.
I've since learned that testicular cancer is often misdiagnosed. The problem -- as I was about to learn firsthand -- is that because it's so rare, most doctors don't see it all that often. The ones back home had told me the cancer hadn't spread. But when the same slides were reviewed at Indiana University, the report indicated that, in fact, it had. I had learned one important lesson: Always get a second opinion. Always.
With this latest round of bad news, I decided to have the dreaded RPLND. I wanted to kill this beast while I had the upper hand.
At the age of 23, I never thought I'd have to make my peace with God. But on the morning of the surgery, I did. Saying goodbye to my wife before entering the operating room was hard enough. But one of the most difficult moments was when I saw my dad for the first time after surgery. He looked shaken, and as he took my hand, he asked in a low voice how I was doing. I gripped his hand as hard as I could and told him not to worry.
Feeling Like Burnt Toast
The six days I spent in the hospital were pretty tough. At first I needed help getting out of bed. By the third day, I was just beginning to feel better when my primary care doctor came to see how I was doing. He happened to mention in passing that my urologist had found one node that was positive for cancer. And then he left.

Check out this video from South Africa — bringing attention to street harassment, how it happens, and why it hurts. They creators also point out the links between street harassment and a culture of media and advertising that regularly objectifies women and treats them like objects. A culture that makes objectifying women OK is the gateway to a culture that makes violence against women OK.
I am regularly inspired by the women involved in the Hollaback campaign. The work they do and the sites they run are amazing. I would recommend that every woman go onto their website, read a bit about what they do, submit your own stories of harassment (lets face it, we've ALL got them) and if you can, donate to help keep them going. They also have some great advice for dealing with harassers; here.
The Hollaback movement (combined with the recent warm weather – why are pervs more active in Summer?) has really brought to my attention just how regularly I experience this sort of thing. Many people say its 'harmless' or some sort of 'compliment' but I do believe that it has a real impact on women and the way they live their lives. So I wanted to start a little Hollaback diary of my own to try and keep track just how often these incidents occur.
I'm not sure if I experience this sort of harassment more or less than other women, but for me it feels like it happens bloody often.
1. Date: 8th May 2011. Time: approx 2 am. Place: City Centre, outside my girlfriends apartment building. Sleaze: As I kissed my girlfriend goodnight two men walking along the street stop and start yelling at us. Comments include I want to f*ck you two, can I join in, you're so f*cking sexy etc etc. I hollaback (can't help myself) and it turns really nasty. One of them starts calls us bitches etc and tells us all sorts of really disgusting things he is 'going' to do to us, including things I don't want to think about, let alone write down.
2. Date: 12th May 2011. Time: 8:30 am. Place: City Centre, on the way to work. Sleaze: A small but regular occurrence when walking down the street. I walk past workmen of some sort and they stop what they are doing, collectively look at me for a moment as I approach and then say "Hi, Good Morning". I know it sounds innocent, but in my head I am thinking; leave me the hell alone. I am walking here. Do you stop and greet everyone that goes past? How many men have you paused to greet this morning. I feel suddenly like I am no longer a person walking down the street, but a sexual object walking along.
3. Date: 20th May 2011. Time: approx 1:30 am. Place: City Centre, walking the 2 blocks from a friends party to my apartment. Sleaze: I walk out of the apartment building and onto the street. Unfortunately at the same time a group of about 5 men are also walking past. They stop, start making noises and cat calls then effectively surround me in a half circle blocking my movement. One of them moves towards me and shouts something I didnt quite catch, but that include the word 'madame'. I stiffen, hold my head up high and push through, ignoring them as best I can. Despite having been at a great party for most of the night, by the time I get home I am so full of rage I cant sleep. (so I do some ranty writing and furious tweets.)
4. Date: 25th May 2011. Time: approx 10 am. Place: City Centre, walking along my street on the way to work. Sleaze: Another workman incident. Pretty similar to #2.
I will try and keep updating this as these events occur, which no doubt they will…
Unfortunately this is an all too regular occurrence here in Spain. On my way to work this morning, a taxi driver in a registered city cab slowed down to practically kerb crawl the pavement I was walking on and spout inappropriate sexual noises and comments at me. The street was 'one way' so I walked behind the cab, crossed the road and continued walking. He was going in the direction I was so he then waited higher up the road on a corner, stopping the cab to ogle me.
I showed him the middle finger as I passed behind his car again and continued with my journey walking away from him. He started shouting "Fea, fea!" (Ugly, ugly) out of his window and across the street at me. In the space of a minute I had gone from 'sexy and gorgeous' to 'ugly' in his eyes.
I shouted back that he was disgusting and had no respect.
This type of bullshit happens on pretty much a daily basis out here in Madrid and it usually comes from a generation above mine (40-60 year old men). In the last few months, I have decided to "hollaback"; inspired by the movement after an American friend of mine out here told me about it.
The last time I holla'd back before today I got called a c***. It seems you are expected to take this crap but should you even have the 'audacity' to respond negatively to these creeps, you get verbally abused.
I wished I had taken his photo and will do so the next time it happens. I will also report such events in the future.
yesterday i had to go to a 5 pm class, which really irritated me to no end,i just wasnt feeling very good with myself. to get to my school i have to walk like 7 minutes after i get off the bus, so i was walking on the sidewalk and i had my ipod on, because really is an off day when i dont get honked at or called at, its just freaking annoying and it makes me very angry. So im walking and 3 guys are walking towards me and i was in hurry so i was walking fast and after i walk by them one of them makes a hand movement as if he was going to touch me (but he didnt), all i could do was to raise my hand to stop his as i said asshole under my breath, one of the guys hears and laughs, which makes me mad, and it took everything in me to not turn around and yell like a maniac, so i continue walking and after i walked by a car wash where aproximately 4 guys were working they started to call me baby, mamacita and nasty stuff, i did hear them but really i had no energy to say anything(i usually turn around and start yelling at them or i tell them to fuck off or give them the finger or something, ANYTHING!) and when they didnt see any reaction from me they just yelled *you are fat* instantly my self steem was at the floor, i felt like crap, so much that i almost cried right then and there. After my class i walked to the bus stop and as im standing there waiting for it, a guy in a motorcycle passes by stares at me and i dont stare back and avert my eyes from his and when he passed right by my side he said *you are fat anyway* that day was awful i mean why do they think they have the right to say ANYTHING about a person's body? and why do we let it affect us SO damn much?? why do we let men control us?
It's 2:55pm and I've just gotten off the bus ready to get my son from school. I'm loaded down with shopping (board games in big, flat, colourful bags) and I'm clearly in a hurry.
I'm walking along in my typical "Leave me be" fashion – not making eye contact with anyone; keeping a fast, purposeful pace; trying to keep a look of determination on my face.
I pass a cook shop. There's a guy in the doorway. "Good afternoon, Young Lady," he says to me. Seems innocuous enough. For community's sake, I reply "Hi" without slowing down. This was a mistake.
"Hey! Baby! Why so hurried! Get your ass back here, baby!"
I'm still processing this (In my mind, my cocky, confident persona is taking a bashing, "Does this guy know who he's messing with?" I saying to myself in an Emergency Inner Pep Talk, "I'm going to ruin his ass come August") as the guy immediately in front of me turns around to see what the first guy is yelling about. He stops right in front of me so suddenly I almost pile into the back of him.
Asshole #1 is still calling to me from his doorway. Asshole #2 decides to join in.
This is the first time in YEARS I've experienced a moment of panic; there's no escape route. Major road to one side, buildings to my other. Harassing Guy #1 is behind and this other asshole is right in front of me. Better yet, I'm frozen in the spot wondering what the hell to do while Guy #2 is reaching his hand out toward me.
"Get the fuck away" I mumble. I move the shopping to my other hand, so it forms a barrier between me and his hand and push past him. Everything I've learned about rape and sexual assault is scrolling, Terminator-style, through my mind. My first thought isn't to hurt him to defend myself; my only thought is to escape.
Five yards ahead is a shop where I go sometimes with my son. I fumble my way in there and stand with my back against the wall. Not quite sure what to do now, I wait a couple of beats while the guy behind the counter asks me if I'm okay. I am, I tell him so. I look at my watch – it's almost time for my son to get collected.
It's only this thought that gets me moving again. The truth is, I could have stayed in the shop for an hour, but my son needs me to be at school.
I step out, both assholes have gone: it's just another rainy day in Bristol and while their days are continuing uninterrupted, mine has been marred. That same old feeling of powerlessness is back again, the "What Ifs" are playing in my head as I get to school and wait for my son to come out. Suddenly I can't wait to get home, to log on and to Hollaback. And now I've written out what happened, I'm already feeling calmer and safer.
I'm starting a Hollaback in Bristol in August; I like to think I know enough about street harassment to remain cool and unflustered. Goes to show, you can never really be prepared – all the responses I've drilled in my head came to nothing. Now I'm home, fear has turned to fury – I find I'm blaming myself: did I overreact? Should I have answered the first guy? Did I really need to use that bus-stop instead of the next? Was I "asking for it" by reciprocating? Was my aggression really warranted?
The truth is, in that moment I was trapped between two guys who were giving me obviously unwanted advances: one was shouting for my attention, the other was making physical advances. I'm now feeling incredibly angry and more determined than ever to end this kind of culture that allows men to randomly surround a woman who clearly wasn't interested in anything other than getting where she was going.
I'm more determined than ever to stop these assholes.
"I'm not your sweetheart."
The other day, I got into a livery cab, which I often do when I travel from Washington Heights to go downtown. I indulge in this guilty pleasure especially when I'm going toward the East Side, which takes a monstrous amount of time to get to from the Heights. Typically, I do a "street hail," because it seems to save time, as well as money. This means that I take certain precautions when getting in a cab, so that I don't have any problems, which I'll detail in another post. Well, this cab seemed alright, as in, the driver seemed courteous, and not creepy. So I got in and everything seemed to be going OK, when he decided to go a different way than the way that I had requested him to go, which unfortunately resulted in us missing several lights, getting caught in traffic etc. So I politely said that I really preferred to take the other route to the Harlem River Drive. He responded by calling me "sweetheart," which, considering the circumstances, was pretty condescending.
I immediately said, "Don't call me sweetheart!" He seemed very surprised, and perhaps had never received that response before. As an older man, I suspect that he probably had called young women that throughout his life, and was never called to task for it. And honestly, I've been called that so many times before by men of a certain age, that I thought I had almost become insensitive to it ~ the operative word here being "almost." It's so common, that it's easy to tell yourself that "they don't mean anything by it," which is exactly the response I received when I spoke up to this cab driver. But just because something offensive/patronizing has become normalized, doesn't make it in the least bit acceptable. And I don't think I'm alone in this view.
When I told him not to call me that, I elaborated the reason ~ not with the obvious one, of him being condescending to me given the specific circumstances, but of the real reason. I told him that it was considered a term that should only be used between a husband and wife, and a boyfriend and girlfriend, and that it indicated that the man had a sexual relationship with the woman. This statement of course stopped him dead in his tracks, so to speak. Now, I know that parents sometimes call their son or daughters this as well, as a term of endearment, but I wanted to drive home to him the fact that it was a term only used between people who had an intimate relationship with one another, and that it wasn't acceptable to use in other settings. Well, he got the message, and at that moment professed undying love to his dear wife, saying that he never meant to come on to me. It totally worked ~ he understood what I was trying to say, and did actually apologize.
When will men learn that calling women whom they've just met, "sweetheart" is not acceptable? When we start calling them on it, each clueless person at a time. And that's how change works.
The long train journey was beginning to wear me off. I dosed at my seat only to wake up at some sounds by a man sitting in the opposite seat. I knew he didn't have a ticket and must have persuaded other travelers to share their seat with him. He was staring at my chest. My dizziness left me that very instant and I started staring at him. He saw I was staring but it didn't seem to perturb him. I told myself there's no way I am letting this creep win this power game with me. I snapped my fingers in front of his face. He seemed surprised. I kept staring, anger in my eyes. After some moments of exchanging stares, he looked away. A vendor came by and he purchased some eatables. I kept staring. He could no longer maintain eye contact. He started stuffing them in his mouth while i started. He looked here and there as if wanting to escape. I bet his ego held him at his place. But as soon as his eatables were finished, he got up and left.
Moral of the story: Most people who tease are cowards. Challenge them and you'll find their hollowness.
I don't consider myself particularly hot or sexy. I am 15, 5'9″, and a size eleven. I am not curvaceous, at least not compared to some girls at my school. But still, I get holla'd at. During school. The first time it happened I was walking through the quad during break, and suddenly I hear "How you doin' gurrrl, you lookin' fine to-day!" I look up, confused, only to see a large boy, (He was probably 18, but can someone who has the nerve to holla at a girl publicly be called a man?). He stared right back, leering. I didn't know what to do. At the time I was 14, I had never received this kind of attention. I responded, "I'm fine, and you?" and quickly walked past him. I was shocked. Not only had it happened in the center of the quad, surrounded by people, I was wearing sweatpants, a loose t shirt and no makeup. I couldn't understand why he had singled me out. I was definitely not "looking' fine to-day". Nothing like that happened that year, and I eventually forgot about it.
Then only a week ago, I was called into the office during class to clear an absence. As I was about to open the door of the main building, I hear "How you doin' guuurrrl?" through the glass. I see a group of about five boys, all seniors I believe, standing just inside the door. If I had been farther away I would have turned around, but I didn't want to show that they had any power over me. I entered the building to a chorus of how-you-doin's. Like before, I responded "I'm fine, and you?" Again I was dumbfounded. Why had they chosen me? I entered the building, and turned down the hallway. Unfortunately I was wearing a team t shirt for lacrosse, and it had my name on the back. They started down the hallway after me, now saying "How you doin' Maureen?." Although they stopped after a few steps, their voices followed me down the hallway. I was so afraid, probably unreasonably so. I entered the office, and cleared my absence. I didn't say anything about the boys. I was hesitant to go back out into the hall, and when I finally did, they were gone. But just to be sure, I took the long way back to my classroom. Now everyday I see them sitting in front of the lunchroom as I go to buy lunch, and I pray they don't remember my face.
I'm bisexual. What does this mean? I am physically, emotionally and mentally attracted to both sexes, male and female, as well as both genders, men and women (note: there is a difference between sex and gender, most people can't differentiate between the two). Essentially, I'm queer-minded; I will not turn down any person because of genetics or orientation. That being said, I've been in several serious relationships with men, had casual flings with women and most recently, entered into a long-term relationship with a woman. At one point or another, both sexes have grabbed the attention of my heart, mind and body, not necessarily equally so, but why should that factor matter?
A few years ago, I took a Sexuality & Society course at Georgia State University. I wanted to learn more about human sexuality and its history, trends, expectations and media influence that affect people's view. Naturally, this course was extremely controversial. Many students signed up simply because they thought we'd be watching soft-core porn all day. Wrong. It was definitely one of the most informative and eye opening classes of my entire undergraduate career.
And then came the discussion of sexual identity. Just as the professor was explaining how many people do not dichotomize their sexuality with 'straight' and 'gay,' one male student (who was extremely fond of his straightness) stood up and yelled, "You can label yourself! You are either straight or gay. If you like men and women, you are gay. Point blank period."
This did not fly with me. Fuck raising my hand and waiting to be called on; this guy needed to LEARN and UNDERSTAND that you cannot just put people and their feelings and attractions into one of two boxes. Life is not that black and white. Life is not that square.
I tried to explain it to him. Yes, some people are 100% straight and some people are 100% homosexual, physically, emotionally and mentally. But not everyone, not me. Before I could even elaborate further, he was already yelling for the whole class to hear, but directing his dialogue toward me. "You're just confused. You can't be in the middle. Bisexuality doesn't exist. Girls who say they are bisexual are just horny girls looking for attention anywhere they can find it. They want to have sex with men and entertain the men by having sex with women too…" – something along those lines. Imagine know-it-all college student in his very early 20s discriminating against an entire group of people without even allowing the discussion to set in. He didn't want to hear anyone else's opinions or even learn one single perspective on the variety of sexual identities that exist. The professor eventually kicked him out of class, and apparently he couldn't handle it because he never came back.
It would've been to his benefit to not drop the class. By the end of the semester, he could have learned something new that may have changed his perspective. Yet another opportunity for growth and understanding down the drain. Unfortunately, many people do not make it through classes like these, or let alone through life encountering people of different sexual orientations and cultural backgrounds. Their only way of coping with something so opposite their own norm is to immediately bash it. They turn to hate and discrimination to make sense of something they just can't wrap their head around. It's selfish and disappointing that people are so quick and willing to immediately cast people off rather than take two minutes to learn about another lifestyle, another culture, another human being.
I'm grateful for HollaBack and other organizations that promote anti-discrimination towards all groups of people — not just gays, transgendered, lesbians, bisexuals, blacks, Muslims or anyone. It is absolutely uncalled for. Whatever life path we decide to take, it's our own. No one should take that away from us. Share your story with the world – or even just one person. It will make a difference if they have the heart and consideration to listen before making judgments.

I've had this body my whole life. I don't remember the first time I got honked at or holla'd at, but it may have been as early as middle school. Because as soon as I hit puberty, wham! I had curves. Not that I can even say that is the full reason. It may lend to it, but the real reason is simply this: I'm a woman. If I'm walking down the street, then I'm fair game to any man who feels the need to holla.
I'm not a prude, I love my body, I'm comfortable in it. But I think about what I wear each morning in terms of what attention I'll get as I walk down the street to the bus stop or work. Some days I just don't feel like dealing with it, so I wear jeans and a t-shirt. I might not get honked at that day. But turns out, me feeling like I ain't lookin' cute–I still get honked at sometimes. I still have men pull up next to me trying to chat me up or offering me rides. But, if I wore a cute dress? It's guaranteed to happen. In jeans and a t-shirt, it's a question of whether I'll have to deal with street harassment. In a dress, or anything slightly more "feminine", it's a question of when.
I live about a seven minute walk from the bus stop where I took the bus to school last semester, and about ten minute walk from my job. No, I wasn't harassed every day. But a lot of days. It's more annoying when I get honked at (from the front and from the back, but from the back most often), but at least that's not coming into my bubble. It really creeps me out when men pull up next to me, try to offer me rides and crap. I mean, seriously? I'm not five anymore, but I pretty much still abide with the idea of not getting in cars with strangers.
I have very fortunately never had to deal with any actual assault. I am extremely grateful every time a man backs off and drives away. I hate that I feel fear every time a man pulls up next to me. What if all he wants is to ask directions? It's never happened. I don't even give them the benefit of the doubt anymore, and I hate that. I don't want to be a feminist man-hater. But considering my work is primarily in the area of intimate partner violence, and my own experience with harassment–it's hard sometimes. I know a lot of great men who treat women well. But I ask of them–do you call off your friends when they try to holla at the girls? If you don't–then you're just as bad–someone who stands idly by.
Anyone who thinks street harassment is harmless, ask yourself why the men are doing it. Do they really just want to tell me how beautiful I am? It's a power play, showing me and and other women who walk down the street that men are still in control. In the society we live in, it's accepted that you shouldn't walk around at night, especially alone. But I don't. This happens in the middle of the day. In broad daylight. In front of many other people in their cars. So don't try to tell me it isn't about putting on a show.
Race may be involved with street harassment for some, but you won't find me saying that. My body apparently is equal opportunity trigger for men of all ages and races. I can't even say one race does it more, because they don't. Just depends what part of town I'm in.
I will not stop walking everywhere. I will not be intimidated by men trying to show me who is in control. And I am speaking up. You try to holla, and you better believe I will hollaback.
Hollaback is an organization speaking against street harassment by collecting people's stories. My story was posted a couple of months ago. I invite you to take part in speaking up. You can also follow them on twitter.
It's time to be the change.

Hi, I want to be able to let users add events but they also need to register. I see "You must log in to view and manage your events." I want them to use the front end of the site when submitting events. Is there an easy way of doing this? Maybe have them register then redirect them to the add events page again?
Just wanted to see what others may be doing.

For static websites I'm using HAProxy (one master, several nodes with static HTML files on them). What services in addition would you recommend to allow WordPress sites to be hosted in the same way in terms of MySQL and files across the nodes changing.
Thanks for any advice/pointers.
Edit: I'm using Ubuntu currently with a standard LAMP stack, the reason why I need this is because as soon as one of my clients sites goes down because they are getting 1000's of hits is when they call me and I get shouted at.
@polynomial The data changes all the time (the main problem) the slaves need to be access really in a which one has the least load on it. MySQL is currently just a single server, serving the data to WP. We do know a little bit when sites will increase load, but there is not much we can do apart from add more ram and bandwidth.

DCC Meeting Notes – September 2015
Pat Kinghorn introduced the newest members of the DCC Steering Committee.
Colin Johnson—Facilities
Bonnie Buzzell—Library
Jason Jacques—ITSC Campus Life
Announcements – Chris Grossi (Client Engineering)
Another round of System Center Training will starting on Oct 19th. Contact Chris for more details.
Successfully launched Remote App for ArcGIS as a pilot for class this fall.
Windows 10: We still don't have a stable VPN solution and are waiting for the F5 folks.
There is a planned replacement of Sophos with Microsoft's System Center Endpoint Protection by the end of October. This new solution will not run on OS 10.7 or 10.8 so Client Engineering is working a solution for those operating systems. More news to come at our next meeting.
Ravi Pendse
It has been a couple of years since Ravi was last at our DCC meeting. He covered a lot of the changes that have happened since he has been on board. He also discussed a little bit about the Deficit Reduction report but did not want to say too much until the report was released. Below is a list of some of the changes/additions:
Adobe Create Cloud
Rosetta Stone
Wireless improvements (on going)
CIS focus on customer service
For more details on Ravi's presentation, please listen to the Audio Capture of the meeting and also the slides (when they are posted.)
Next meeting will be October 14th
This month's notes by Gary Bryson.
August 2015 DCC meeting notes
Chris Grossi (Client Engineering) gave the following announcements:
Brown's contract with Sophos ends in October and will probably not be renewed. We are thinking of moving to Microsoft Security Essentials. The ITSC group is working on a Casper uninstaller for the Macs that have Sophos already installed.
Brown is upping its concurrent Sibellius licenses to 50. However, the server can only run one version of Sibellius so we will need to upgrade to v. 8.
CIS cluster computers will be updated to Windows 8 and we will probably mount home folders for students so that they can save their work.
Windows 10 update: VPN is still problematic as the F5 folks have not released a Win 10 compatible client. Some users who did an upgrade in place are experiencing network issues. Those who have wiped their HD's and done a clean install seem to be okay.
Folder redirection is on hold and under review.
Client Engineering hopes to present at the October DCC meeting.
Wendy McRae-Owoeye (Director of Diversity and Inclusion, Office of Institutional Diversity) and Amanda Walsh (Title IX Program Officer) spoke to the group about the upcoming on-line training: Preventing Discrimination and Sexual Violence: Title IX, VAWA and Clery Act for Faculty and Staff. They will share the link to the training so that we can try it out to anticipate any technical difficulties our users might encounter.
David Sherry, CISO, talked about privacy and security issues at Brown and what his group is involved in (often behind the scenes). His slides can be viewed on the DCC Presentations Page
October 2013 DCC Meeting Notes

Notes from the June 2012 DCC meeting
Notes submitted by Stephanie Han
Pat Kinghorn announced that there was a FileMaker one day conference meeting at MIT next Wednesday, June 20th, 2012. If anyone is interested, please e-mail her, and she will send along further information.
Chris Gross announced that Maple 16 will be released shortly. Chris mentioned that Dell did fix some of the issues which were problematic on the premiere page, such as the default login going to their software page, and not to computer equipment. Dell is in the process of rebuilding the information on their software page. Chris was going to send around a Google spreadsheet to all of the system admins and DCCs to ask for suggestions on what types of software should be included on this site.
Chris also told the group that he and Scott Martin had met with some folks from FileMaker regarding an on-line training series initiative. This series appears to be an excellent and inexpensive way to gain needed training.
David Sherry: Password Strengthening Policy (10+)
David Sherry then introduced the new password policy to the DCC community. With the onset of Workday, and Oracle Identity Management (OIM), David remarked that it was an ideal time to implement a campus wide initiative for the strengthening of passwords. The reasons for strengthening the Brown network passwords are due in part to the increased amount of confidential information available to both faculty and staff, through for example WorkDay and Banner. Also Brown's ability to qualify for funding and grants also mandate that the password policy be upgraded. Compliance with the Level of Assurance with InCommon (Shibboleth), which would raise our level from Bronze to Silver. Due to these requirements, the password convention must be bumped up from eight characters to 10 or more characters. David Sherry stated that there would be a grace period whereby members of the community could begin this process. Eventually it will be necessary for each person in the Brown Community to verify their identity by logging into the Oracle Identity Manager, where the password change will take place. David is encouraging that this process commence on June 20th. Passwords will have to be changed annually. At the 351st day, notifications will be disseminated to Brown users as a reminder to change their password. The password must be changed before the expiration date, or a user may lose the ability to authenticate into Brown resources. Near the conclusion of his presentation, David Sherry distributed a pamphlet to the DCCs with specific information regarding the password policy. For more information please visit: www.brown.edu/go/passwords
Scott Thacher: Community Technology Consortium (CTC)
Scott Thatcher gave a brief presentation on a new initiative entitled, "Community Technology Consortium." He remarked that the CTC is an advisory group which directly communicates to Mike Pickett on issues voiced through the IT community here at Brown. The purpose of this group is to promote coordination and communication across IT's strategies, architectures, methods and priority. It is hoped that this consortium will assist:
Identifying and planning top priority collaborative initiates within Brown.
Allowing Brown-wide IT best practices and standards to be jointly developed
Fostering innovation and allowing ideas and solutions to be broadly shared.
Coordinate support transitions of IT leadership, during times of emergency.
Serving as a technology advisory group.
Providing advocacy for issues of the IT community's concern.
It is hoped that the Consortium will have a web presence sometime in the future. The membership includes: Tony Allison, Andrew Ashton, Jeff Coady, Jaime Combariza, Monty Combs, Cliff Hirschman, Chris Keith, Paul Koussa, Jennifer lane, David Mycue, Kristen Soule, John Spadaro, and Scott Thacher.
Tom DuValley: Red Hat Server License
Tom DuValley presented the campus-wide site license for several Redhat products, including server, workstation and clustering software. This service will be managed through a Red Hat Network Satellite service providing:
• Licensing
• Hosts and serves out all software
• Hosts and serves out all software updates
• Provides Kickstart management
• Config file management
• Update management
• System profiling
Workstations and servers for all Brown faculty, staff and students will be licensed at no cost. Vendor support will be available to all those who are licensed. The way to install this system is via Kickstart, which is accomplished through the Campus PXEBoot service.
Brown's particular satellite is called Hubble, RHN.brown.edu, and is great for system administrators, because it provides a central management hub for all of these systems. If a department wants to manage their own machines, they get their own log in and their own account.
Please visit https://sites.google.com/a/brown.edu/brown-rhn-satellite/ for further documentation, and for specific satellite documentation please visit https://rhn.brown.edu/rhn/help.

DCC Meeting Notes – 14 March 2010
An audio recording of this meeting is available here.
Announcements – Chris Grossi
We're down to two weeks left for the Symantec Antivirus license. CIS is tracking and running reports of machines that are still contacting the SAV server. ISG has sent reminders to departments that have many remaining SAV clients. We need to get full migration completed by the end of March to both ensure active and current client security, and to be in compliance with our licensing agreements and protect Brown from a license audit and penalties.
CIS has been working with SAS to extend licensing across campus, they are close to being ready to un-key SAS licensing. Standalone SAS will be available to departments before the end of the semester. Anyone using a keyed installation of SAS will need to uninstall their preior version and reinstall the new unkeyed version. Students are included in the licensing and can install SAS on their own computers.
By the end of this patch cycle, Windows machines managed in the CIS SCCM system will have their Microsoft updates managed by SCCM.
As part of Brown's Dell contract, Dell will be running a Recycling Day on Friday 20 April (Earth Day weekend) to allow Brown-owned and personal equipment to be dropped off for recycling. Details are still being worked out, look for more information from CIS soon.

DCC Meeting December 14, 2011
Chris Grossi opened the meeting with a brief announcement about turning on Google Plus as an opt-in service for the Brown Community. There has been a big demand for this from the students, so by mid-January it will be launched. On January 2nd, CIS will adopt Google's "Scheduled Release Plan," which will enable CIS to have greater control in rolling out Google updates. Chris also thanked everyone for their participation in the software survey, and said that he and Stephanie Obodda would be tallying the results, to be made available sometime during January or February's meeting. Chris told the DCCs that the software updates in SCCM are working in pilot departments. Also a presentation should be scheduled for a TechForum early next year.
Steve McKay then gave an update on Forefront, the antivirus software which is to replace Symantec for Windows machines. The new standalone installer has been adapted to include tools that remove all previous Symantec version, as well as Microsoft Security Essentials. On the Mac side, Sophos also looks good, and the distribution version is ready. SCCM installations have begun in pilot departments, and will be expanded in January. Antivirus software for Macs will be held off until after the New Year.
Judy Nabb, Kerry Feather, and Stephanie Altomari-Cavanagh introduced Learning Point, which will support professional and learning development, as well as mandatory compliance training for the Brown Community. It will replace training.brown.edu. Learning Point will be available to faculty, staff and students, and provide a comprehensive check point for all training events, testing, and evaluations, as well as an interface for facilitating employee networking and collaborative endeavors. Users will be able to track their learning and training session, as well as be provided a means for important training announcements. Learning Point will provide both instructor led and on-line training sessions and modules. Transcripts existing in training.brown.edu , should be downloaded and saved, before the training.brown.edu site is decommissioned on July 1, 2012.
For more information email firstname.lastname@example.com, or visit the informational page located on the Human Resources website.
Michelle Wise who helps to organize the health and wellness component of classes which are offered to the Brown Community, will maintain the training.brown.edu site for these classes.
Stephanie Obodda will be working with Microsoft to provide on-line training modules for Windows related training.
Those departments on campus which are still in need of an online registration system will be provided with classes which will offer training to create registration forms using Google Docs. These classes will be made available beginning in January and last through the summer of 2012.
John Harmon gave a presentation and brief demonstration of the new project called WORKDAY, soon to be released at Brown. WORKDAY will provide a central management system for Human Resources, Payroll, and other administrative efforts at Brown. Brown members will be able to access human resources related information such as vacation or sick time availability, payroll, and benefits information. WORKDAY will improve the way that human resources data is administered, and will afford an integrated system so that this data is easier to share and manage. This initiative will permit employees to access their own information and administer certain transactions, as well as providing an interface for reporting and record keeping.
WORKDAY WIZARDS will be trained from among the Brown Community in order to provide instruction to faculty, staff and students toward navigating the WORKDAY program.

DCC Meeting – October 12, 2011
ANNOUNCEMENTS – Chris Grossi
Brown's new Dell 3 year contract is close to completion and will shortly be signed.
There has been a change in our Dell Reps. Contact information can be found on the My Dell link on the Dell Premier Page.
CIS is working on streamlining the Dell computer ordering process with the Bookstore. They are also pursuing the idea of the Bookstore keeping an in store inventory of standard machines. This would be a great benefit to departments for those "emergency" situations.
CIS is currently in the testing phase for the new anti-virus client for Brown owned PC's and hopes to have it out within the next 30 days. Just a reminder that MS Security Essentials can not be put on Brown owned computers or computers running an enterprise copy of Windows. Looks like it is going to be Sophos for the Mac.
Office 2010 support is coming. Classes are in the works.
All users of Maple need to standardize on one version (v15). The sooner we can get our users on that version, the better.
ITG (Instructional Technology Group) will be offering 2 training classes at the end of the month on CANVAS (Brown's new MyCourses replacement). They will offer sessions on October 26 (from 1-2) and October 27 (from 10-11). The group will also be debuting Canvas at the November DCC meeting.
John Huffman, Manager for CCV User Services and Applications, went over the services offered by the CCV and said that they are willing to talk to anyone who wants to use the facility. In addition, the CCV staff are available for hire on a consulting basis. John also mentioned that the Cave is currently closed for renovations and they hope to have a new state-of-the-art cave up and running by the fall of 2012.
You can view all of the CCV service offerings on their home page or click here for the CCV slide presentation.

Carbide precipitation from the steel matrix during long-term high-temperature exposure can adversely affect the fracture toughness and high-temperature creep resistance of materials with implications on the performance of power plant components. In the present work, carbide evolution in 2.25Cr-1Mo steel after long-term aging during service was investigated. Boiler pipe samples of this steel were removed from a supercritical water-cooled coal-fired power plant after service times of 17 and 28 years and a mean operational temperature of 810 K (537 °C). The carbide precipitation and coarsening effects were studied using the carbon extraction replica technique followed by analysis using transmission electron microscopy and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. The carbides extracted using an electrolytic technique were also analyzed using X-ray diffraction to evaluate phase transformations of the carbides during long-term service. Small ball punch and Vickers hardness were used to evaluate the changes in mechanical performance after long-term aging during service.
