What song and what dance?
to be more in tune with your rhythm of love?
How much will you risk to know and be known
on levels more deeply holy human, vulnerable,
more unique than ever?
Four packed tightly under covers…eight feet gifting each other with warmth, one pair seeking another less warm, giving kind remedy; sharing space tangled up in an attic bedroom with no power but two candles and giggles and then sweet sleep in a hushed daylight filled with ice. Soft snores after a breakfast too big except for nothing else to do in a town coated in winter's grasp.
Then firelight and stove top sustenance, candles lit all over a house bathed mostly in shadow and cold but oh so warm. Games and face time, firewood and laughter, gathered ice for coolers salvaging what we can. Tallulah River stone soup for feet unaccompanied, gathering hot river gems up in cloth to carry up to bed, settling in for a night of no heat.
A renewed, stark, startling awareness of what conveniences pilfer,
their insipid gain robbing us of something only an ice storm can bring…
connection more profoundly felt, reliance more sweetly known.
Face time…
turning to the earth for protection…
appreciation for life's turns less convenient
reminding us of treasure sometimes lost
in what we understand as wealth.
Maybe the earth conspires to remind us how vulnerable we are, both in our advancements and without them. And without our bonds of love, our shared space and renewed survival ability, we would wilt under a perpetually shining sun.
Either way, there's nothing like the pleasure of finding your kids will make, not complaint, but fun in the face of one more dance with winter's whimsy.
we fall all over ourselves…
bending, stretching, reaching for jewels
as if they aren't
at our feet and just to the left of right,
beyond the ideas of what should be
or thoughts of who has more integrity.
flowers bloom late,
singing in the pelting melt of sky
melodies defying loss,
haunting what remains –
elixir fragrant, magick making
love, love, love…
potions conjuring newness
calling one more dance
on the edge of autumn's field.
I find myself at this shoreline, drenched and still in a wash of life tides. So many little storms and awful swells tossed me around in a night long, almost endless. In those storms and swells were faces I've never known personally and those I cherish dearly daily, often kissing, celebrating life. And some faces I've never seen or touched but love. I kept grasping for the best wreckage to cling to, the "right" perspective to trust, knowing truth calls out somewhere in the love-support our hearts can illuminate. But with every grope in the direction of what looked to be secure and safe purchase, the waters welled up and slammed back down, turning these lovely safety vests into monsters plunging me under murky depths.
And then I let go, floating to a wild surface, holding to some faith in love, finding myself afloat while gentler tides swelled from within, sending me to foreign shores. But home. Home longed for but not known before all these little storms releasing.
While resting on this shore, I remember what was learned in my tossing, how the worst enemy out there is within. And the ugliest apathy claims some beating hearts and sleeping minds because it's all they can do to cope. But, regardless of all these injuries, cripplings, wobbling feeble feet, mysteries of goodness divine thrive, sometimes found in wicked shadows. The long-tossing night of endless effort reveals no bad guys or good guys, no heroes or foes, just this washing flood of human artistry sometimes flotsam, jetsam surreal.
All these crashing tides found me not some profound and releasing truth but a freedom in surrendering to the artistry of love's wilder works and savagespeaking songs singing out loud, sometimes screaming our lives a human collage of vivid soul. Those seas tell me there's no sense to be made but love-sense and the sometimes nonsense of sharing discoveries as we accept the mutability of the known and the true. Only love redeems our loss and not always in ways we can measure, but as we let go and float, we're soaked in a wonder no hands can hold…no grief can drown… and no tide can destroy.
this cup my blood…
the nectar of…
the heartbeat of…
some thunderous dance 'neath cover
of leaves and longing night,
drops of torrential heaven cries
falling down, pounding ground
and all around a great unfolding,
blossoming redemption regardless of
all the accusations
all recrimination
fall to your knees and drink of this cup
the only one whose wholeness calls to your own,
the only one restoring primal innocence,
washing away confusion in earth's profusion of song
drink deep this quiet magnificence,
seep into bones our song of union…
"Teach me how to trust
my heart,
my mind,
my intuition,
my inner knowing,
the senses
of my body,
the blessings of my spirit,
teach me how to trust these things,
so that I may enter my sacred space and love
beyond my fear
And thus walk in balance
with the passing of each glorious sun…"
Lakota Prayer
Ruth's Response…
Sweep me past the rubble
carry me fast to river rapid
where earth's gentle cooling touch
washes "me" away, shredding scant no-face,
remnants of long-erected defenses
all of life's angsty debris,
pour in, over, all around me
keeping vessel shiny, new
setting soul free
again and again.
Even if they trap cats for the pound to take and "euthanize" if unclaimed…
Even if they have made sure two of your cats get trapped…
Even if you go with your daughter the first time and she bawls in the middle of a holding room with cages labeled "M" and "T" and "W" and "TH" and so forth since they murder these cats after 72 hours, the cages full of cats looking confused and scared…
Even if thy said neighbors go to church every Sunday AND trap cats
AND have access to one of the best commandments ever…
Love. Thy. Neighbor. (as thyself)
I suppose they don't love themselves too darn much. Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy… wait. Love thyself first, ok? Give us ALL a break.
Pardon my King James dumbness. I was raised on it and I can't manage to quote scripture without thees and thous and thys and oh my…
2013 has begun with some wonderful holiday memories carrying me into the challenge of loving my neighbor. I have to say, I'm not feelin' the love. Not one "thy" has therefore ousted my angst. But underneath that angst is this awareness of their right to their um, desire, to um, facilitate the killing of cats.
I've felt angry enough to qualify as murderously enraged. I guess this makes me no better than my neighbors.
I've had fantasies of creating a catapult for hurling the cat litter (for my one terminally stupid housebound adorable black cat) scoopings across the street and into their yard, onto their roof, slamming against their windows, landing on their cars.
I've conjured scenarios of sending anonymous postcards with the words "Bite Me" on the front and a black frazzled looking cat glaring at them with the one message on the back: "Meow."
I've imagined painting cat paw prints down their driveway.
And so many other scenarios silly. The one that I may actually act on is one of buying them a huge gift bag full of cat repellent and old pots and pans (with instructions on how to bang together to scare cats out of their yard) as well as a whistle (for the purpose of scaring cats away). I'll probably include a book on the symbolism of cats. What else? How cats represent the feminine and how those who hate cats. Ok, maybe not that one. Any ideas on what else to put in the bag? Let me know in comments!
Did I mention I'm not feeling the love?
(I don't know why the image above is sideways. It didn't show as such in my picture manager, but a lopsided perspective is fitting.)

The characteristics of his music...
The titles of his pieces often originate in literature. A title is a borrowed idea, a challenge, a reinterpretation, a source of inspiration as well as an elective affinity.
The contrast between a meditative sonority on the one hand - where chords suggest an ethereal atmosphere - and very nervous instrumental passages on the other hand, which require a high-level capacity of interpretation. While he is composing, Claude Lenners likes keep in mind the personality of the musicians he writes for.
The importance of timbres in the combination of instrumental colours as well as in techniques of composition.
An advanced research in the domain of phrasing, inspired by his studies of the phonetic phenomena of spoken language.

Adam Fletcher is a perfect example of how this works, he moved into his apartment, and cable TV was out of the question.
"For the amount of things that we would want to watch, that we could get with the cable, it just was out of our price range," Adam Fletcher said. Pay TV bills are going up - some six percent a year. Consumer Reports says one way to cut the cord is to invest in a digital antenna. They cost between eight and $80. It's a one-time expense.
"Antennas pick up local stations, like CBS and NBC, for free. Of course, you're not going to get cable channels, and one drawback is that antennas don't work in every home," Jim Wilcox of Consumer Reports said.
You may need to test several antennas to find one that has good reception where you live , so make sure you can return it. Consumer Reports says one from RCA is worth trying, it only costs $32.
If an antenna doesn't do the trick, there's Aereo. It's been expanding across the country, despite legal challenges and an upcoming case before the Supreme Court. Aereo delivers broadcast TV channels to your phone, tablet, or computer for eight dollars a month. If you have Roku or Apple TV, you can watch Aereo on your television as well.
"I tried Aereo at home, and I have to say that I was favorably impressed. I got about 30 channels, and I was able to record and save shows on a cloud-based DVR," Jim Wilcox of Consumer Reports said.
If you still want more to watch, streaming video services can fill in the gaps. The Fletchers stream movies from Netflix, plus they pick up about 30 local stations with digital rabbit ear antennas. The total cost?
"We spend about, maybe around 20 dollars a month for television services," Adam Fletcher said.
f you aren't ready to give up cable or satellite TV yet, Consumer Reports says it's worth checking to see if you can get a lower-priced plan. Paid-TV services are coming out with all kinds of special deals to hang on to potential cord cutters.

Tiger Woods posted a respectable Round 1 at the 2014 Open Championship, finishing his day at three under par.
Woods stuttered through the opening challenge at Hoylake, an event that signals his first competitive major since August 2013. The Royal Liverpool Golf Club challenged Woods' resolve throughout and highlighted a player who is working toward his best as he continues to regain form after four months out following back surgery.
On Thursday, he expressed optimism over his recovery, per ESPN.com's Bob Harig:
'I knew I could do it,' Woods said. 'That's why I was telling you guys it was so important for me to play at Congressional. The fact that I was able to recover every day, and the fact that I was stronger, more explosive the more days I played.
'I'm only going to get better from that point. And I'm getting stronger, I'm getting faster, I'm getting more explosive. The ball is starting to travel again. And those are all positive things.'
He previously missed the cut in a warm-up tournament at the Quicken Loans National on June 27.
Woods was tied for the eighth spot on the leaderboard at the conclusion of his British Open round. Here's a look at the top players thus far:
The 38-year-old's day began slowly, with Woods posting consecutive bogeys across the first and second holes. He straightened up by hitting par through the next two and claimed a shot back on the fifth.
After his round, Woods discussed his slow start, per Golf Digest on Twitter:
Tiger: "I'm not the only one who's gonna make two bogeys in a row. I got mine out of the way early."— Golf Digest (@GolfDigestMag) July 17, 2014
Woods suddenly found some consistency alongside Henrik Stenson and Angel Cabrera, finishing the front nine with four pars, as noted by CBS Sports:
After 9 holes, Tiger Woods is 1 over in #BritishOpen. Follow our LIVE BLOG here: http://t.co/WdEwk2j2fl @EYEonGolf pic.twitter.com/PV3nGd3p8x— CBSSports.com (@CBSSports) July 17, 2014
While this wasn't an explosive start to his tournament, keeping par within sight was certainly crucial at this stage. A respectable start ensured the American would receive the opportunity to build his confidence.
Woods burst into life by grabbing a birdie on the 11th. His showing dramatically improved from there, with another two birdies firing him up the leaderboard. Most of Woods' morning was spent hovering around T50, but his change in fortune suddenly thrust the veteran into T20.
A slight misjudgement on the 14th saw Tiger put himself in a precarious position, per Jeremy Harris of South Africa's Kfm radio station:
#TheOpen After 3 birdies in a row Tiger Woods overcooks his 2nd shot into the par 4 14th. He'll do well to save par! @EWNsport— Jeremy Harris (@jeremyharris55) July 17, 2014
Woods came up just short while trying to save par, taking his overall score to one under heading into the 15th. CBS Sports spoiled the dream for his supporters:
In case you thought Tiger was going to birdie the last 62 holes in a row, sorry to be the bearer of bad news. His streak ended at 3. #Bogey— CBSSports.com (@CBSSports) July 17, 2014
He regained the dropped shot right away with his fifth birdie of the day, as tweeted by the Golf Channel:
Make that 4 birdies in the past 6 holes. Tiger Woods now 2 under thru 15. #TheOpen Scores: http://t.co/sCGfc0T47L pic.twitter.com/VaDitsl79R— Golf Channel (@GolfChannel) July 17, 2014
Tiger gained another shot on the following hole before serving up one of the day's more memorable moments when he appeared to hit a bouncing shot into a course marshal's face. The incident was humorously followed by CBS Sports' tweet:
"Tiger's having a good back 9 in his first round...but this drive was not part of it." Someone's face got in the way: http://t.co/vT08KCsF5s— CBSSports.com (@CBSSports) July 17, 2014
James Corrigan of The Telegraph explained what he saw while also summarising Stenson's meltdown on the same hole:
don't think tiger's tee-shot on the 17th did hit a marshall in the face. think it hit his rucksack on the floor and he turned away— James Corrigan (@jcorrigangolf) July 17, 2014
Alas poor Henrik - my tip just snapped a club in half on the 17th. i'll rip my betting ticket in half as an act of solidarity— James Corrigan (@jcorrigangolf) July 17, 2014
Woods registered another par on the 17th before getting a little antsy on the final hole after the crowd's interaction became too loud.
Prior to the tournament, Woods acknowledged the difficult situation he finds himself in after serious injury, as reported by Ewan Murray of The Guardian:
I have been in circumstances like this before. If you remember 2008, I had knee surgery right after the Masters. I teed it up to the US Open and won. ...
... I've proven I can do it, it's just a matter of putting my game and giving myself the best chances this week to miss the ball in the correct spots, to be aggressive when I can, and obviously to hole putts. That's a recipe you find for every major championship, but I've just got to do it this week.
His impressive self-belief came to the fore at moments throughout Round 1. As noted by USA Today's Christine Brennan, this is a man who hasn't won a competitive tournament for almost a year and has posted a "terrible" 2014 season so far. As such, he should be extremely pleased with his showing.
Although far from evoking memories of his terrific Open victory on Merseyside in 2006, Woods has shown he can compete for the prize at Royal Liverpool, progress coming ahead of schedule after such a long break.

There is little more important to the individual than his or her personal safety unless it is knowing their loved ones are safe. People want to know about the crime in their neighborhoods, near their schools or workplaces and where they travel. While law enforcement is charged with protecting the public's safety, it also is responsible for keeping the public informed about how it serves its citizens, including where and how crime is occurring.
LexisNexis® Risk Solutions today announced that it is launching a new solution that helps to bridge the data gap between law enforcement and citizens: the LexisNexis® Crime Alerts Mobile – a free consumer-facing mobile application that encompasses crime-alerting capability on Apple® mobile devices.
This year has been yet another breakthrough year for iPhone gaming entertainment. Whether you're looking to explore amazing augmented reality games, play innovative sports simulators, or just want to hit the gaming tables, there's never been a better time to play on your Apple device.
It's Pokémon Go that's created the most headlines in the gaming world and beyond throughout 2016. Not only has the quest to capture those Pokémon creatures finally fulfilled the hype surrounding augmented reality, but by getting us to move around to play, it's also significantly increased the lifespan of its players!
Pet parents looking to take their training on-the-go need to look no further than the phone they're carrying, thanks to the new SMART DOG® Trainer by PetSafe® Brand, a leading innovator in pet behavior and lifestyle solutions.
The PetSafe SMART DOG Trainer allows pet parents to train their dog using a smartphone. Utilizing Bluetooth wireless technology, the PetSafe SMART DOG Trainer app connects an iPhone® or Android™ smartphone to the training collar, providing an easy, convenient way for pet parents to communicate with their pet.
Since I've upgraded to iOS 10 I noticed that the location service icon in the top right was always visible, so the GPS was always tracking me. At first I hoped that it would go away but it started to annoy me after a while because it drains the battery faster.
I closed all apps, which had no result. I rebooted the iPhone to be sure it couldn't be an app which had been opened before. Still no result.
When I looked in Setting > Privacy > Location Services, I could see that the purple location icon was with the Yahoo Weather app. Because I was sure it was closed before and that rebooting didn't help I decided to remove the app.
Boem that solved it, the location services icon immediately went away.
Yonomi, the free app that connects your smart home devices and gets them to work together, today announced its integration with the new Honeywell Lyric™T Series Wi-Fi Thermostats. The mid-market thermostat, introduced this morning by Honeywell, makes it easy and affordable for consumers to add a connected thermostat to their home, and, with Yonomi, consumers can easily integrate this new device into Routines with their other smart home products.
The Honeywell Lyric T5 Wi-Fi Thermostat can be connected with more than 60 popular smart home devices supported by Yonomi and included in customized Routines that make home life simpler and more comfortable. Routines can be triggered automatically by time of day, your location or other preferences; manually through the Yonomi app; or by asking Amazon Echo to turn on a specific Routine. For example:
Today, Beddit®, the leader in ambient sleep tracking to solve sleep, is announcing the Beddit 3 Sleep Tracker™ at Health 2.0 in Santa Clara, California.
Sleep is a pillar of health and the bedrock of life. Yet, millions wake up every morning and wonder why they are tired. While an occasional night of bad sleep is normal, constantly feeling tired is not.

today announced the launch of Wink, the world's first platform for mobile messaging empowering brands to join the conversation through branded emojis, stickers and GIFs. With Wink, marketers are able to leverage the native keyboard to deliver content, without requiring consumers to download a separate emoji keyboard, app or sticker pack.
Popular chat platform Kik will leverage Wink to offer GIFs from top brands to its more than 300 million registered users. In addition, Wink will be available as an iMessage app on iOS 10 – allowing an estimated 900 million people worldwide to select and use stickers from leading brands.
The new GoControl Smart Doorbell Camera is a Wi-Fi enabled video doorbell with two-way audio to allow homeowners to see who is at the door, and converse with the caller as well.

While it is critical for patients to closely monitor AF and blood pressure to manage the risk of stroke, until now, no single platform has integrated the two risk factors. AliveCor and Omron are enabling patients to take control of their heart health with clinically validated technology and to work with their physicians to determine an appropriate care plan that will help lower the risk of stroke.
"Giving patients the ability to monitor two vital heart health statistics for stroke in one place has the opportunity to be life-changing," said Dr. David Albert, Founder and Chief Medical Officer at AliveCor. "With this combined data, patients can change their most important modifiable risk factor, blood pressure, and seek the right care that could improve heart health and prevent a stroke. Today we are one step closer to achieving our mission of making the ECG a vital statistic for not just cardiologists, but patients, physicians and caregivers."
Fyusion, a leading developer of new computer vision and machine learning technologies, today announced the world's first platform that allows mobile phones to create augmented reality content.
Fyusion's platform allows mobile users to record their surroundings, and convert these into interactive 3D holographic images. Rather than requiring expensive or additional hardware, people can capture a light field-based image using a regular smartphone, which can then be viewed using an augmented reality headset within seconds. To see a video of the technology in action, visit http://www.fyusion.com.

"Before I applied to the SGTP, my discernment process bounced from fear around the tuition cost to awe around the movement of the Holy Spirit calling me into this program at Siena. After completing the SGTP, I say with every fiber of my being that it is so worth the investment of money and time, openness and vulnerability. Many graces and transformations have been gifted me through SGTP."
"The Spiritual Guidance Training Program became an unanticipated journey of transformational healing and hope. It is this hope that I now live from, through, with and into a future that is of possibility."
Institute for Spiritual Guidance
Siena Retreat Center is pleased to announce the Institute for Spiritual Guidance. The Institute for Spiritual Guidance is intended for both seasoned spiritual guides and those who have more recently completed training.

NOAA Fleet:
Responses to Post-Hearing Questions

Additional Materials:

(202) 512-2637
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO addressed congressional concerns regarding the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), focusing on: (1) the management challenges facing the Department of Commerce in its administration of NOAA; (2) whether GAO reviewed the latest available studies of NOAA's fleet and modernization efforts or NOAA's fisheries research acquisition plan; (3) whether GAO examined the cost efficiency or effectiveness of NOAA's ships or compared the costs of NOAA's ships with those of private or other available ships; (4) whether GAO reviewed NOAA's fisheries research ship replacement plans; (5) why replacing the NOAA fleet is entwined with the issue of the NOAA Corps; and (6) whether GAO reviewed NOAA's downsizing of the NOAA Corps.
GAO noted that: (1) GAO has concerns about the Department's implementation of Office of Management and Budget Circular A-76, performance of commercial activities, the adequacy of NOAA's ship cost comparisons with private sector and other available ships, and its inherent preference for operating its own ships, rather than contracting out more with the private sector and other public entities and relying more heavily on them to come up with the ships and marine data that NOAA needs; (2) GAO has not had an opportunity to review the latest study of NOAA's fleet modernization or NOAA's acquisition plans for fisheries research and hydrographic missions; (3) GAO has not reviewed NOAA's current cost claims; (4) GAO's work in the costs area, which is about 5 years old now, faulted NOAA for setting unrealistic conditions for its evaluation of outsourcing alternatives and raised serious questions about NOAA's claims and the basis on which NOAA founded those claims; (5) GAO has found that, once federal assets like ships and airplanes exist, it seems cheaper to operate them than to contract for services, since the capital and associated fixed operating costs are already sunk; (6) although GAO has not reviewed NOAA's construction plans or supporting cost justifications, GAO understands that the Commerce Inspector General (IG) has reviewed at least some of them; (7) the Commerce IG has criticized certain NOAA rotational patterns as not critical to or paid for by other NOAA missions; (8) if there were no NOAA fleet, there would be no justification for the NOAA Corps as a separate service; (9) in 1995, the National Performance Review, noting that the NOAA Corps was the smallest uniformed service and that the fleet it commanded was obsolete, recommended that the NOAA Corps be gradually reduced in number and eventually eliminated; (10) GAO has not reviewed NOAA's reported downsizing of its NOAA Corps; (11) however, in 1996, GAO: (a) reported on the anomaly of NOAA being paid military benefits and allowances while not meeting the Department of Defense's criteria and principles for a military compensation system; and (b) compared the costs of the NOAA billets that existed at the time with civilian pay and benefits for the same positions; (12) while GAO has not reviewed NOAA's downsizing of the NOAA Corps and claimed cost savings, the Commerce IG did review NOAA's 1997 plan and legislative proposal to downsize and civilianize the NOAA Corps; and (13) the IG recommended downsizing the NOAA Corps to achieve significant cost savings and management efficiencies.

Guidelines for Using Pivotal Tracker

Zero Downtime Migrations
August 15, 2015
For any sufficiently large application, you want to minimize interruptions to service while deploying new code. This is especially challenging for migrations on Heroku and other Platforms-as-a-Service, where you have a Catch-22 problem; you want to run your migrations, first, but you can't run them until you've deployed the migrations to production. Usually, at this point, your new migration-dependent features are in the deploy, too. So when your application restarts, and the migration hasn't run, yet, your poor application will trip some exceptions, and perhaps, create problems for your users. Of course, you could put the app into maintenance mode, but that creates more downtime for your users.

The slow road
June 1, 2014
Once a week, we run a query on our production system that takes a very long time to complete. Invariably, it times out because the default settings on Heroku are (quite reasonably) for web / API interactions; anything longer than 30 seconds is too long and the connection should be closed to let other requests through. How do you get around this, then? You could set up your
database.ymlfile so that you connect to your production database from a developer workstation. This is actually quite useful, but opens up a hellacious security hole. Let's not get started about the consequences of accidentally running
rake db:drop:all! Moreover, you want your system to be automated as much as possible, and that means running your tasks on a Heroku instance. Fortunately, with a little hackery, you can modify the connection timeout settings within your application. Do this carefully, and make sure that it can not leak into your running web application dynos.

Stop thinking like an employee
November 5, 2013
A few weeks ago, some of the managers got together for drinks after work. I started to reminisce about an old employer who had, what I thought, was an incredibly unique and reasonable way to handle the "vacation liability" problem. The old firm was a consulting firm, mostly military contracts, in the DC area. We were paid for every hour we billed, and we accrued vacation hours for every hour we were paid. It created an environment where the top performers could rack up so much vacation that they could not use it all. Many companies handle this with the familiar "use it or lose it" policy, which caps the accrued vacation hours to some limit. Instead, the firm let vacation accrue forever, with one modification: When you got a raise, your vacation hours were reduced by exactly the same percentage.

Sencha Touch BDD - Part 3 - Testing Views and Mocking Stores
May 5, 2013
In Part 1 I showed you how to set up your Sencha Touch development environment to use the Jasmine JavaScript test framework. In Part 2 I showed you to unit test Sencha model classes in Jasmine.
###I don't normally test views, but when I do
There's an old MVC mantra: "Fat models, skinny controllers and stupid views." We don't want complex logic in our views; that makes them hard to maintain. We don't want any business logic in our controllers, either. That's why we have models. Views should be so simple that they don't require tests. There is a gray area with Sencha, however, where we found testing to be useful in our design process. It has to do with how views interact with stores.
Stores are essentially collections of models. They also encapsulate the persistence layer logic, separate from the business logic of the model. DataViews are a special class of Views in Sencha Touch that will consume a collection to generate a list-type view via a template.
Here are two goals for testing views and stores:
- Does the view consume the right fields from the store, without hitting the back-end for data?
- Does the store organize the data from the back-end, i.e. create the interface that is used by the view? Again, without hitting the back-end for data.
###Small steps and iterate
Let's define a very simple view via tests, we'll make it work using an in-line store, then we'll refactor the store into its own class. Next, we'll refactor the storage class to use a remote back-end.
Ext.require('SenchaBdd.view.MyView'); describe('SenchaBdd.view.MyView', function () { it("has a list of colors", function () { var view = Ext.create('SenchaBdd.view.MyView', { renderTo: 'jasmine_content', store: { fields: ['color'], data: [ {color: 'red'}, {color: 'green'}, {color: 'blue'} ] } }); expect(Ext.DomQuery.select('.favorite-color').map(function (el) { return el.textContent }).join(', ')).toEqual('red, green, blue'); }); });
Sencha does not come bundled with jQuery, so if you were expecting a DOM query like, $(".favorite-color"), you might be surprised by the expectation. Ext has its own flavor of querying the DOM, using Ext.DomQuery.select.
Try implementing the view on your own to make the test pass. It should look remarkably similar to this:
Ext.define('SenchaBdd.view.MyView', { extend: 'Ext.dataview.DataView', xtype: 'myview', config: { itemTpl: '
{color}
' } });
In your application, you probably won't hardwire a store into the view. In fact, you will probably embed this little view inside a larger container, like so (this adds another tab to the sample app):
--- a/app/view/Main.js +++ b/app/view/Main.js @@ -10,6 +10,11 @@ Ext.define('SenchaBdd.view.Main', { items: [ + { + title: 'Favorites', + iconCls: 'star', + xtype: 'myview', + store: 'mystore', + styleHtmlContent: true + }, { title: 'Welcome', iconCls: 'home',
Let's create a store so our view will show us something:
Ext.define('SenchaBdd.store.MyStore', { extend: 'Ext.data.Store', config: { storeId: 'mystore', fields: ['color'], data: [ {color: 'red'}, {color: 'green'}, {color: 'blue'} ] } });
In order to see this view, we'll need to add it to our app.js file:
--- a/app.js +++ b/app.js @@ -31,7 +31,11 @@ Ext.application({ ], views: [ - 'Main' + 'Main', 'MyView' ], + stores: [ + 'MyStore' + ], icon: {
Now, let's go back and refactor our test so it uses MyStore instead of one that was hard-wired.
All of our tests should remain green, but we've removed the "fake" store from our test.
###Let's get dynamic
Static data stores are boring. The fun starts when you start talking to a back-end API. Let's say that we have a server that responds to an end point of '/colors.json' with a list of favorite colors. We can even "fake" it by placing a file in the appropriate place. Even so, we don't want our tests to make network calls to the back-end. That's not appropriate for unit testing. We'll use Jasmine's AJAX mocking helper, jasmine-ajax. At the time of this writing, the 2.0 branch had not been merged into the main line, and we need the 2.0 branch in order to work with Ext.
cd spec/javascripts/helpers curl -O 'https://raw.github.com/pivotal/jasmine-ajax/2_0/lib/mock-ajax.js' git add ./mock-ajax.js
And we'll create our first store spec in
describe('SenchaBdd.store.MyStore', function () { var store; beforeEach(function () { jasmine.Ajax.useMock(); clearAjaxRequests(); store = Ext.create('SenchaBdd.store.MyStore') }); it('calls out to the proper url', function () { store.load(); var request = mostRecentAjaxRequest(); expect(request.url).toEqual('/colors.json'); }); });
Notice that I call
clearAjaxRequests()in the set up block. This is because I want to wait until the very last moment to turn on ajax mocking. The Ext class loader might still be trying to load a class (via xhr), and the mocker will prevent that from happening. I also clear all previous requests (in case there were any left over, to prevent test polution).
When you run Jasmine, you'll get a test failure, "TypeError: Cannot read property 'url' of null" because we haven't set up the proxy in the store, yet. Let's do that.
$ cat app/store/MyStore.js Ext.define('SenchaBdd.store.MyStore', { extend: 'Ext.data.Store', config: { autoLoad: true, storeId: 'mystore', fields: ['color'], proxy: { type: 'ajax', url: '/colors.json' } } });
Now, when you run the test suite, you'll get a different error! This is because the default settings for the ajax proxy enables caching, paging, etc. Things we don't need, so we have to turn them off:
proxy: { type: 'ajax', url: '/colors.json', noCache: false, pageParam: false, startParam: false, limitParam: false }
Now our api test is green! You can even test this in the application by dropping a file, 'colors.json' into the public directory.
Let's add one more test to finish things off.
it('populates the collection', function () { store.load(); var mockedRequest = mostRecentAjaxRequest(); mockedRequest.response({ status: 200, responseText: [ {color: 'red'}, {color: 'green'}, {color: 'blue'} ] }); expect(store.getCount()).toEqual(3); expect(store.getAt(0).get('color')).toEqual('red'); expect(store.getAt(1).get('color')).toEqual('green'); expect(store.getAt(2).get('color')).toEqual('blue'); });
Every mocked ajax request has a
response()method that you can use to inject your own response, synchronously, to your tests. This confirms that MyStore properly parses and arranges the received data so that it can be presented by the view.
###Validate your mocks
We now have 2 tests that depend on a back-end to respond in a specified way. How do we keep these tests from drifting out of sync? Since we've mocked the store in our view test, we might never know if the back-end API changes!
You can wrap Jasmine expectation in functions so that they are reusable. Then we can mix this matcher into our view test to confirm that the store we use there is the same.
Let's add this function to our SpecHelper.js file:
function myStoreDataIsValid(store) { expect(store.getCount()).toEqual(3); expect(store.getAt(0).get('color')).toEqual('red'); expect(store.getAt(1).get('color')).toEqual('green'); expect(store.getAt(2).get('color')).toEqual('blue'); }
And we'll replace our existing tests with a single line:
We'll also modify the MyViewSpec.js:
--- a/spec/javascripts/view/MyViewSpec.js +++ b/spec/javascripts/view/MyViewSpec.js @@ -9,6 +9,7 @@ describe('SenchaBdd.view.MyView', function () { {color: 'blue'} ] }); + myStoreDataIsValid(store); var view = Ext.create('SenchaBdd.view.MyView', { renderTo: 'jasmine_content', store: store
Similarly, we can refactor our colors array into var: ```diff — a/spec/javascripts/helpers/SpecHelper.js +++ b/spec/javascripts/helpers/SpecHelper.js @@ -16,6 +16,15 @@ afterEach(function () { domEl.setAttribute('style', 'display:none;'); });
+var colorsJSON; +beforeEach(function() { + colorsJSON = [ + {color: 'red'}, + {color: 'green'}, + {color: 'blue'} + ]; +}); ```

What we've managed, so far
The toy app is coming along. We've test driven a DataView that consumes a back-end API. We've added the mock-ajax library so we can unit tests our stores in isolation. We've even seen a few techniques for keeping our mocks from getting out of sync (although, if you've been paying attention, I've still left a gaping hole, that needs to be plugged).

It's The Volatility That Will Kill You
February 19, 2013
Volatility is what Pivotal Tracker uses to measure the consistency of your team's work output. You can use that number to help you estimate the first approximation to answer the eternal question, "Will I make the deadline?"
From customer requirements to releasable gem
May 12, 2012
One of the many pleasures of working at Pivotal Labs is that we are encouraged to release some of our work as open source. Often during the course of our engagements, we write code that might have wide-spread use. Due to the nature of our contracts, we can not unilaterally release such code. Those rights belong to the client. And rightly so. So, it is an even greater pleasure when one of our clients believes in "giving back" to the community, as well.
One such example is this modest gem,
attribute_access_controllablewhich allows you to set read-only access at the attribute level, on a per-instance basis. For example, let's say that you have a model
Personwith an attribute
birthday, which, for security purposes, cannot be changed once this attribute is set (except, perhaps, by an administrator with extraordinary privileges). Any future attempts to change this attribute will result in a validation error.

TDD Action Caching in Rails 3
March 28, 2012
On my current project, we needed to prove that an action cache was working as expected. Alas, the blogosphere had either out-of-date or unhelpful information. So, after many experiments, we came up with an RSpec test that does what we want. It seems ugly to me, and I hope there's a better way. The names have been changed to protect the guilty. Any resemblances to actual classes and methods are purely coincidental.
We needed to confirm that a certain action was cached. This action is
previewin the brands controller. Using the usual Rails url helpers, we construct some fixture data.
Then we wrote our first test:
This won't work at all, however; because, in the test environment, caching is turned off.
So, we need an
aroundblock to temporarily turn caching on:
That's great, but the default cache store is the
:nullstore, which, as its name implies, does nothing.
Better. But our tests still won't run because while ActionController uses the
Rails.cacheand that is only updated at boot time.
Did I mention that Rails.cache is an accessor for the global, constant,
RAILS_CACHE. Ugh.
So, now, we can implement our method
But that is still not enough.
has an interesting performance enhancement; it doesn't actually set up the action caching unless caching is enabled at class load time. Since we're not turning caching on until test time, the
caches_actionmethod call in the controller class does nothing. We need to re-add it in our test spec.
This is ugly; it doesn't test very much (except the underlying caching module, and why bother testing the framework). At least it proves to ourselves that the action is cached and the cache key is what we expect.
Now that we've got caching under control, let's check cache expiration (using a Sweeper).
First, I create a cached object, in this case, just the string 'CACHED ACTION' and then I invoke the action, and then, I hope, the cache will be expired.
It doesn't really matter what happens in the
#updatemethod of the
BrandsControlleras long as it updates a
Brandobject. A sweeper in Rails is a mix of Observer & controller filters, so all you need to do is "declare" it in the controller
Awesome sauce! Now our tests are red and I'm ready to implement the sweeper
And voilà! We have greenness.
So what have we learned from this? The Rails source is still your best friend when exploring a sticky problem. Caching is hard, and testing caching is even harder.

DropBox + Git => Designer <3
April 5, 2011
One of the thornier problems in our workflow is knowing when assets are delivered from the designer and keeping them in sync with our application as they change. We used to use e-mail, Skype or sticky notes. The trouble is that the designer's file naming and directory structure were never quite the same as the application's
/public/imagesdirectory, so direct comparisons were impossible and we ended with a lot bookkeeping to make sure that we didn't lose any changes. Our solution is to clone the project's git repository into a folder inside a shared Dropbox folder.
When to do User Acceptance Testing?
November 18, 2010
A former client asked:
"What does Scrum say about User Acceptance Testing? I am wondering if it should best be done within 24 hours of delivery, or at the end of a sprint..."
I'll dodge scrum, but answer how we do it here by framing this in terms of risk and velocity:
We prefer to get acceptance as soon as a story can be delivered to the acceptance/demo server. Intra-day is the best, but certainly within the same sprint when the work is done so as not to muddy velocity measures (a story isn't done until it is accepted, so there's incentive on all sides).
The longer a story sits out there (waiting to be accepted), the bigger the risk that it is "wrong" and needs re-work. Since the code base continues to evolve, fixes are harder the further they are away (in terms of commits) from the original change-set. This can slow down velocity. We want to reduce risk and maintain a steady velocity. Thus, the sooner a story is accepted by the stake holder, the better.
The Elevator Speech
February 24, 2007
The Elevator Speech
The purpose of the "speech" is to condense the project definition into something that would fit into the time it takes to ride an elevator. This is where all good ideas are pitched, apparently; you stalk an unwary VC until he or she is trapped inside the elevator has no choice but to listen to your prattling. If your idea has any merit, pray that the VC doesn't call on someone else to launch the project and leave you out in the cold.

So what's next in this reinvention of the company town?

The First Full Year of Wishful Thinking
December 24, 1998
It's hard to believe that it's been over a year since we left the house in Los Gatos and moved aboard the S/V Wishful Thinking. We made trips to Angel Island, South Beach Harbor, Richmond Marina, Pier 39, Vallejo YC, Golden Gate YC... covering something over 800 miles this year.

The cable TV is connected to our phone, which is connected to my personal computer, which is connected to the shore-power lines, all the appliances and the security system. Everything runs off a universal remote with the friendliest interface I've ever used. Programming is a snap.

Fleet Week at Treasure Island
October 11, 1998
An eventful weekend, that's what we had. It started Friday evening about 6 PM as that was our window of opportunity to escape from the shallows of the marina entrance in the South bay. The winds had been blowing 25+ out of the north since early afternoon so it was going to be wet and splashy, but we really wanted to stay at Treasure Island Marina that night and on to Angel Island early the next morning. So, it was now or never. Wishful Thinking was actually the last of three to leave. Gypsy, a Union 38, left about 5 PM and Dragon Lady, a Cheoy Lee 40, left about 5:30. We gave them a call once we were underway. "Hope you guys are reefed" came their answer. "Reefed" I said, "hell we're motoring!" "We're making fine progress just quartering these seas a bit and heading into the 25+ knots".

However, the paper is so very thin that the print not only from the next page but the following page bleeds through making it difficult to read which is the reason for owning a Bible. I have a number of Bibles and this is by far the worst for reading due to the thinness of the paper used.

When I received them I was disappointed to find that the ribbon was pink, not a suitable choice for a boy. It would have been a better choice if it was a gender free color. I do not feel I can present the bible to the boy for obvious reasons. Unfortunately I had the bibles personalized and most likely cannot be returned. Also the print was very small and might be difficult for some youngsters to read. Some pictures could have been included as well.

New London - The city and the Renaissance City Development Association are continuing to explore the construction of a parking garage in the Fort Trumbull neighborhood to accommodate the parking needs of Electric Boat and future development on the peninsula.
Lawrence + Memorial Hospital, which is retrofitting a building on nearby Howard Street for medical offices, is also interested in parking in that area of the city.
"It's in the preliminary stages," Michael Joplin, a member of the RCDA, said Friday. "But everyone now is beginning to understand, yes, we have a parking problem, and a garage is the way out of it."
Electric Boat, the city and the RCDA are discussing how to provide more parking for the roughly 3,000 people who work daily at the Electric Boat facility on Pequot Avenue, he said.
The site being looked at in Fort Trumbull is on ledge and runs along the railroad tracks, Joplin said. The garage would be a public facility. The state Department of Economic and Community Development is also in on discussions, Joplin said, in an effort to help the city find federal and state grants to fund the project.
Parking garages cost about $18,000 to $20,000 per space to build. A 500-space garage would cost around $10 million, Joplin said.
EB has needed more parking than what is available in its own parking garage on Pequot Avenue ever since moving into the former Pfizer Global Research and Development Headquarters in 2010. Each day hundreds of EB workers park along Pequot Avenue and on streets in Fort Trumbull. Others are bused from the Groton facility to New London. Electric Boat needs between 400 and 650 more spaces for its workers, Joplin said.
But Robert Hamilton, spokesman for EB, said the company provides enough parking for its employees.
"We don't need any more spaces," he said. "It's a matter of where people choose to park."
Joplin also said Electric Boat is looking at the possibility of building a garage on its property at the rotary on Pequot Avenue, which is the site of Pfizer's former visitors center. But Joplin said the site may not be large enough.
In response, Hamilton said the company does not comment on speculation.
The RCDA board was briefed Friday morning on the status of the project.
"We're trying to explore options for a structured parking garage to alleviate parking problems," President Linda Mariani said after the meeting.
Tammy Daugherty, the city's director of economic development, said no decision has been made as to where a garage would be located, how big it would be, and how it would be operated. Funding also has to be discussed, she said.
"The city would be interested in having a parking garage that would be an enhancement to further development in Fort Trumbull," she said.
A proposal for Village on Thames, a three-phase, 103-unit housing development in Fort Trumbull, has been stalled since last spring. The RCDA and developers Robert and Irwin Stillman are in contract mediation about the project.
Joplin said another meeting with EB will take place in December. He hopes to give the RCDA and the city a more detailed report in January about costs and funding possibilities.
Last summer the RCDA was looking at allowing EB to temporarily park about 100 cars on Parcel 4a in Fort Trumbull. That plan never materialized.
Parcel 4a was the subject of an eminent domain lawsuit that brought notoriety to the city. Two families that owned land in Parcel 4a were displaced when the city took the land by eminent domain. Susette Kelo, one of the property owners, was the lead plaintiff in a lawsuit that argued that it was unconstitutional to take private property for future economic development. The appeals went all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court, which ruled in a 5-4 decision in 2005 in favor of the city and against the property owners.

COLUMBUS, Ohio -- A company in Independence that plans to add 75 full-time jobs that will boost its annual payroll by about $3.4 million won tax credits from the state Monday to help with its expansion project.
Lighthouse Insurance Group LLC, a health insurance broker that focuses on call-center expertise, software development and model forecasting, was awarded a 40 percent, five-year job creation tax credit by the Ohio Tax Credit Authority for the project, according to the state's Development Services Agency.
The tax credits would be applied against new payroll tax obligations for the company. They are performance based, so they cannot be used if the jobs aren't actually created.
Lighthouse already has a $1.9 million payroll, according to the state.
The projects were recommended to DSA and tax credit board by JobsOhio, the non-profit private corporation that acts as the state's development arm, and its regional partners.
The project was one of 14 for which the Tax Credit Authority approved incentives. In all, the projects are forecast to create 2,298 jobs and retain 2,452 jobs statewide. They are expected to spur more than $131.4 million in investment across Ohio and yield $118.4 million in new payroll.

So if he has fecal matter on his hands, a squirt of purell to smear it around is as good as washing ? Don't think so. This is the same logic as irradiating food, you sanitize contaminated food instead of just not contaminating it in the first place.
The petting area at my zoo has both a hand wash and sanitizer station.
Thank you Sarah!
Apparently, we're not supposed to use hand sanitizer as it's creating "super bugs" or something…
Most hand sanitizers use isopropyl alcohol, which can dry and crack the skin,. These cracks can allow bateria to enter thru otherwise healthy skin.
That's better… Germ free.
LOL xxx
It's always nice to see someone else using hand sanitizer. I take it everywhere.
So often I see people sneezing and not using a tissue or covering their face. I saw a guy sneeze into his hands and then rub the
snotresidue into them.
Feel better for that do you?
Alternatively, you could just keep taking the tablets.
@Greg Cravens.
"Sorry about that, Greg."
I understand Larry. When I have used hand sanitizer – I still want to at least rinse the hands. Just to get rid of the sanitizer.
@ Number Six – I have seen that! Gross! Ewwwww!
Allan – that's the antibiotic soaps, not the hand sanitizer.
I thought that petting zoos were REQUIRED to have a place to wash one's hands. We have been to a really small one at an outlet store and ones at festivals that are a temporary setup and there is always a place to wash one's hands.
